CLEVELAND NATIONAL FOREST: Mountain biker found dead (UPDATED)
1 of 3More Galleries
Updates with more details from wife
A mountain biker and father of four who was reported missing Saturday, March 1, was found dead Sunday in the Cleveland National Forest near Corona.
Andres Marin began a planned ride about 7 a.m. Saturday — his 34th birthday —� from the Skyline Trailhead� to Santiago Peak and back through Temescal Canyon, according to the Riverside County Sheriff's Department and Marin's wife.
"The ride was 88 miles, which he has done before," Christyna Arista wrote in a Facebook message about her husband of 14 years. The Sheriff's Department had described the route as 18 miles.
Marin failed to return in time for a Saturday afternoon birthday celebration.
"We did not hear from him until 5:15 p.m. when he called saying he was injured, hurt, didn't know where he was," Arista wrote. "His words were slurred and he seemed disoriented."
Then the phone connection failed and couldn't be re-established, she said. The family reported him missing.
Rescuers began searching for Marin about 6 p.m., sheriff's Lt. Zachary Hall wrote in a news release,� but bad weather prevented teams from reaching the Skyline Trail and helicopters could not be used Saturday night.
"The sheriff's department felt that we should be positive that he would make it through the night, even considering that he had on shorts and a thin shirt with no food," Arista wrote.
By Sunday morning, searchers were able to use a helicopter as well as off-road vehicles and horses.
Marin's body was found about 10 a.m. on the North Main Divide Road in an Orange County portion of the forest, according to the sheriff's release.
Sheriff's officials said Marin's cause of death is pending, but there did not seem to be any signs of foul play.
Arista� � said authorities told her they suspected hypothermia was to blame.
In addition to his wife, he is survived by his children Andres, Jazmyn, Christal and Julyan. Services will be held at a later date, Arista said.
"I want to thank all the volunteers and everyone else who helped search for my husband," she wrote. "He loved to go mountain biking. He will be greatly missed."

Screw BBC.
Oh my...
I think she looks pregnant too, but she could just be bloated from all of the alcohol she had to drink to say yes
that photog momma to kaleb and kason.
Wow, yeah she sure looks preggo, but who knows with those two. I could see them making it look like they were out shopping for baby clothes to steal the spotlight.
I did notice she has a nice, shiny new ring on her finger and not the yucky leather looking thing they got married with.
SAHM to Ryder 5/28/07 and Kylie 8/18/10
I think I just threw up in my mouth a little....
To think how drunk she was in November and to be showing that much now (if she is indeed pregnant) doing the math....that can't be healthy.
I think it's a ploy too. Didn't Avril Lavigne do that for a punked show or something? Just to screw around with the -razzi?
I can get you milk and cookies, but if the oven is broken then just get milk.
I think I just threw up in my mouth...
Mommy to 4 crazy kiddos with a RAINBOW on the way
oh god.......that's just a messed up situation right there. gross

Maybe just Spencer....
I think she does look kinda pregos but photoshop can make great things...
Her legs look great though lol
That poor girl, she really needs a reality check. Remember when she first got on the show she was all have fun and party, and now she is all fake. Fake boobs, porcelin teeth, nose job and bleach out hair and a wack job boyfriend. She has lost her head and she seems so lost. A baby that his way to trap her so he will always be financially tied to her and emotionally. I hope and pray her mother steps in and save her because she has lost all her marbles.
Jay Jordan 2/6/2013
I hope it wasn't a shotgun wedding because she was wasted...not cool! But I agree, it probably is just a ploy for attention.
Mommy to Caleb 10/21/2007�and Nolan 11/26/2010
I figured she was pregnant anyway when they got married. Then I saw he drinking all that alcohol and was like "no way." But she sure does look pregnant in those pictures!!!

Nine dogs left homeless by torrential flooding in Mississippi arrived at the Washington Animal Rescue League Thursday. Some of the animals were surrendered during Hurricane Isaac, others were taken to shelters to make room for dogs abandoned during the storm.
"We try to spend as much time as we possibly can giving them attention because they just look up at us and they need that attention," said Jennifer Gardner, Animal Rescue Officer.
Along with the puppies and adult dogs, three volunteers made the road trip to DC. They're driving up the east coast in a dog-filled truck - hoping to find new homes for each and every rescued animal.
"We have a full service medical center," said Mary Jarvis, CEO Washington Animal Rescue League. "We will be able to treat them here and get them good homes."
Once the dogs are treated for any ailments, they will be put up for adoption.

The cozy Winter in Holland Pillow is hand knitted with a combination of virgin and cashmere wool. Whilst the cashmere wool is intensely soft, the virgin wool gives the product shape. The Winter in Holland Pillow contains the filling and the knit. The knitted sleeve can not be opened and seperated from the cushion. The lining of the cushions is made of 100% cotton and is stuffed with fowl feathers.
A range of complementing and contrasting colours resulted in a collection of ten knits. Each of these knits are further processed in two types of cushions:
The rectangular: 40×60 cm
The square: 50×50 cm
These knits are also available as plaids

Senate Set to Vote on Unemployment Extension
The Senate returned to session this afternoon with a vote pending on whether to move a bill to extend unemployment benefits for those who have exhausted them. Sen. Tom Coburn, R-Muskogee, held up the bill two weeks ago, with the support of Republican leaders, and he argued today that lawmakers should find a way to pay for the benefits rather than just adding them directly to the deficit.
Illinois Sen. Dick Durbin, the second-ranking Democrat in the Senate, said Republicans were using unemployment benefits to take a stand on fiscal responsibility and questioned why they didn't take that same stand on funding wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, the Medicare prescription drug program and tax cuts for the wealthiest Americans.
The vote today, scheduled for 4:30 p.m. Oklahoma time, is a procedural move that requires 60 votes. It will take at least one Republican to break the logjam and move the bill along.
UPDATE: The Senate is voting now and two Republicans have already voted with the Democrats — Sens. Scott Brown of Mass. and Susan Collins of Maine. So it looks like impasse will be broken and the bill will pass.
UPDATE: The Senate broke the impasse and cleared the way for passage of unemployment benefits extension.

The people who have already drew all their Tiers in Oklahoma need to be counted as unemployed because 95% of them still are. Please do a new Tier for Oklahoma. People in Oklahoma are desperate. Many of the lawmakers do not have a clue what is going on the the people of this state.

Maria on Apr 19, 2010 @ 9:12 pmPlease, please pass a Tier 5 extension - I have sent out almost 100 resumes (even for jobs that I am over qualified for) with no luck - how am I supposed to eat and pay the rent, I have no family or anyone to turn to. I know there are over 100,000 people whose 99 week benefits have expired. We are all in the same boat - PLEASE HELP US!!!
ARL on Apr 16, 2010 @ 10:51 amI will be getting my last check next week. I have been unemployed for 18 months. I have posted my resume on all kinds of sites monster, etc. I have applied for jobs online, I have looked at Craigslist, went on a few interviews and NOTHING. This is the first time that I have been unemployed for this long. I have excellent skills, I have worked at the Fortune 500 companies, my skills are transferable and still no luck. Jobs are scarce. The large corporations do a lot of offshore outsourcing, which helps the other countries and their economy but does absolutely nothing for the United States. The Bush Administration really screwed this country up. Unemployment benefits need to be extended through Summer 2011. A tremendous amount of jobs are lost forever, what is the plan to get everyone back to work, how do you replace jobs that have been lost forever? The unemployment money We the American people receive is pumped right back into the economy and we pay taxes on that money. We pay our rent, utilities, water bill, we purchase food and gas for our cars, have they forgotten about that?
john on Apr 15, 2010 @ 1:44 pmWe need your signatures. Go to unemployment benefits for 99ers and sign up to get it passed. The goal was 2,500, nowthere is almost 10,000. Many of you will be out of benefits soon. So, just go to the website and sign your name.
j.j. bogaloo on Apr 15, 2010 @ 1:28 pmwe are all gonna be homeless very shortly and probably be sleeping under bridges if congress does act soon because the landlord wont be able to help you no way. either you pay or you are out.This is why we worked and pay taxes every year after year should in case you fall into these spot somewhere down the road like now and i think we deserve better we have paid our share
MargaretB on Apr 15, 2010 @ 3:33 amUnemployment is a social safety net that people pay into while working in the expectation that when they are not working they will be able to avail themselves of the earned benefit. Now we have to sweat out every "tier" and every delay in Congress. C'mon Congressmen and Congresswomen, please give us that to which we have contributed for (myself 35+ years) years! There is no excuse to make people beg for that which is rightfully theirs.
JIMMY on Apr 15, 2010 @ 3:16 amIT IS NECESSARY TO CUT MILITARY SPENDING AND PROJECTS AND THEY MUST DIVERT MORE FUNDS TO NECESSARY EXPENSES SUCH AS UNEMPLOYMENT BENEFIT OR UNEMPLOYMENT EXTENSION, HEALTH CARE INSTEAD OF MUCH SPENDING IT TO UNNCESSARY THINGS. THE GOVERNMENT ESPECIALLY WITH REPUBLICIANS, THEY MUST DEEPLY FIGURE OUT AND STRONGLY RETHINK ABRAHAM LINCOLN: THE GOVERNMENT OF THE PEOPLE, BY THE PEOPLE, FOR THE PEOPLE. OBVIOUSLY, UNEMPLOYMENT EXTENSION IS A FIRST TOP PRIORITY DUE TO UNEMPLOYMENT BENEFIT OR UNEMPLOYEMNT EXTENSION CAN GIVE THE UNEMPLOYED FAMILIES HELP. UNEMPLOYED FAMILIES REALLY NEED TO PUT FOOD ON THE TABLE, WE COULD STAY HUNGER BUT OUR KID/KIDS COULD NOT STAY HUNGER IF THE FAMILIES HAVE CHILD/CHILDREN! UNEMPLOYMENT BENEFIT OR UNEMPLOYMENT EXTENSION COULD KEEP A HOUSE OR A ROOF OVER THEIR FAMILIES. UNEMPLOYMENT BENEFIT AND UNEMPLOYMENT EXTENSION ARE A PART OF A VALUE OF HUMAN RIGHTS. WE HAVE A DREAM: PLEASE PASS THE UNEMPLOYMENT EXTENSION! WE HAVE A DREAM: PLEASE GIVE US THE JOB SECURITY!! WE HAVE A DREAM: PLEASE HELP OUR NEEDY FAMILIES!!!
matt on Apr 15, 2010 @ 12:46 amI have only been on unemployment since the beginning of December and I have just exhausted my regular employment benefits, I haven't even been able to file for the first tier EUC benefit and now I don't even know if I will be able to... i know people that have been on unemployment for over a year and i get cut off after four months?? While I was on unemployment I barely made enough to get by so there is no money saved...if the bill doesn't get passed me and a whole lot of other people will be on the streets...Pass the bill.
Stefanie on Apr 13, 2010 @ 12:47 amI am 35 and have worked since I was 15....my company closed down and there are no jobs where I live. I have sent out 100's of resumes and look for a job everyday. I have even went back to school to get my Bachelors degree. I have only been on unemployment since July and I have 1 check left, this is just crazy these people don't understand whats really going on because they get a pay check and don't have to worry about anything. Now there may be some people who don't care about looking for a job and have been on it for a couple of years. Cut those people off ............

Tomg on Apr 12, 2010 @ 10:32 pmI am 62 years old have been doing the same thing in industrial sales for over 30 yrs. I have sent out and spent alot of money haveing people review my resume and still no job after using all my tier and my money. If a tier extension is not given I will lose my home and a lot more do something for the first time in my life I don't know what to say to my kids,wife, I just don't know if I can go on
Jimmy on Apr 12, 2010 @ 10:32 pmI registered Temporary Agency or Temporary Services almost two month. I have been keeping to contact Temporary Services, but there had no jobs available. I have been working here over 15 years,it was my first time to get Unemployment Benefit. My 22 weeks UI was already ran out last week, I have 5 kids to feed although my wife work, but I did not apply Food stamps so far although I am eligible. I am not lazy, I am actively to seek 5 and 6 jobs in Utah, but no one call me to interview. Our whole family strongly wish that Republician abonden their self-interst, pass Unemployment Extension, if not, we will sell our house and we will be homeness. Please, pass Unemployement Extension, we need foods, we need the roof, or give me the job, please.
Joel on Apr 12, 2010 @ 10:31 pmMost Republicans are rich, why are CEO, top Execs of corporations Republicans, not for any political philosophy, they may try to pond that off, but the truth is, it's all about Economics. Their well off by finding ways to cut costs, especially in labor expenses, and scheming ways to not pay taxes, so they maximize their profits. If need be, they outsource American jobs, to cheaper countries, where minors can do slave labor for you high price Nike's and other products. Republicans are against funding for public schools, medical subsidies, unemployment benefits, and want to erratic all social programs because they don't really give a damn about most poor working Americans. They just care about themselves. That is why there is such a weath disparity in America, so much so that 1% of the population in this country has more wealth than 95% of the American populaiton. Now, that is despicable!!!!! Joel Covarrubias
willie on Apr 12, 2010 @ 10:29 pmWho is voting against this???
Lee on Apr 12, 2010 @ 10:23 pmThere are many people REALLY hurting out there due to the current unemployment rate. The unemployment rate is over 19 percent in my county. It is a demoralizing,hard enough time without others making fun of the current situation.
Steve on Apr 12, 2010 @ 10:20 pmYes It seems unfair that just last week I received my last payment on my 26th week and my benefits have been exhausted? I know people that have been on Unemployment for over a year and still collecting. Not fair at all . I believe everyone should receive a year of benefits and that is it. I only received 6 months.
Joel on Apr 12, 2010 @ 10:16 pmUnemployment Insurance is a matter of Life and Death, plain and simple. Men, women, and children's lives are at stake. There are not enough jobs to put people back to work, so what are they supposed to do, starve to death, create social unrest, or rob a bank? Joel Covarrubias
Rob on Apr 12, 2010 @ 9:58 pmMotion for cloture on H.R. 4851, and to move bill forward passed 60-34 in favor.
Cheryl on Apr 12, 2010 @ 9:49 pmI am praying that this extension passes. It is the only thing keeping our heads above water. I was laid off while on Maternity Leave in September of 2008. I have two Bachelor degrees, half of a Masters and am eligible to sit for the CPA exam- which is what I am currently working on. My unemployment extensions just ran out. I apply for jobs as often as they come up- I applied for four last week and there has been nothing so far this week. The area we live in is very small so there are no large companies. I am over qualified for most jobs that do come available and of course they do not want to pay much and now I have to worry about paying for daycare as well. My husband is getting ready to retire from the Air Force and at that point I don't know what we will do- hopefully he will be able to get a job on the base. We, like many people right now, are also upside down on our mortgage so selling and moving are impossible. I am tired of the political BS and would love to be able to go back to work at a decent job so we are not stressed about how we are going to pay our expenses. I am tired of people thinking that people on unemployment should just get a job. If only it were that easy.
betty on Apr 12, 2010 @ 9:48 pmThis is a slap in the face! I havent worked for over 2 years! without this extsention I will be forced to take one of the lower paying jobs! they should give it until better jobs come! I can barly afford to go out clubbing and I have a mild drug addiction that I will not go without! if they wont give it I will just get pregnent and start getting welfare! at least they cant take my foodstamps! we need this money! NOW!
Mark C on Apr 12, 2010 @ 9:46 pmEconomics 101: There are thousands of juveniles coming of working age everyday while there are limited jobs being created. This gap has been widening especially from the reccent surge of outsourcing to more competitive cheaper markets. (CHINA-ASIA) These 30 day extensions is by no means a solution to the real problem as a whole.
cheeseonion on Apr 12, 2010 @ 9:45 pmPass the Bill already!!!
cheeseonion on Apr 12, 2010 @ 9:44 pmHow do you cut umemployment before you deal with the job loss. If would be one thing if there were significant job creation but it seems like Republicans only care about themselves and big business and the rich. When will the people we elect care about the working and the poor. It's the greedy rich with all their outsourcing to other countries, and robbing wall street and the big banks that put us here. Now help us out or we will put you out in November!
deborah barrow on Apr 12, 2010 @ 9:44 pmwhat you expect of the unmployed do you honestly think they do not want to work. extend the benefts it will be a vote getter in the fall.
Mark C on Apr 12, 2010 @ 9:40 pmI agree with Cheddar. I have not even used any of the 5 tier extensions. While Congress were at there spring homes and yachts, us unemployed have to worry about how we are going to survive literally for a lot of us.
Paul From Cincinnati on Apr 12, 2010 @ 9:38 pmI have only collected 26 weeks of unemployment compensation. I worked in the state of Kentucky but live in Cincinnati. My last check was for the week ending 3/27/10. My three children are in college and I have returned to college online trying to finish my degree. I have been told that if I had started my unemployment just one week earlier, I would have been on an extension already. But because I chose to stay with my company before it transitioned to another company - to the bitter end in order to help out - I am still unemployed and only received 26 weeks of benefits while those who left my company one week earlier or before have received or will be receiving many more weeks of unemployment. Is that fair? I have been spending about five hours per day filling out applications for work and have had only few interviews - all with no success in getting a job. It is almost impossible to find work. I was in a management position for many years and am trying to find work - even settling with work that is a lower position with a lot less pay - but I am "overqualified". Please pass this bill and please make this retroactive. It is difficult enough to pay the bills with the unemployment compensation but will be impossible I do not receive more than the 26 weeks. I am almost 52 years old, and have worked continuously for over 31 years. I have never been unemployed. This is a scary situation to be in and your help is needed. Thank you for listening.
Tam on Apr 12, 2010 @ 9:36 pmPlease vote to extend people need the help. When you can't find a job and this check is the only way that people can live and pay their bils.
Joe on Apr 12, 2010 @ 9:30 pmHere in Los Angeles I run into to so many without jobs. At the Church, the store, and at at my son's Basketball games. Not sure what I will do without Benefits. I am running out of my first 26 weeks this week. Without an extension I won't qualify for my first tier... Let's hope they help us.
Chrystal on Apr 12, 2010 @ 9:28 pmI am so scared...have been looking for work for a long time and will lose my home if this does not pass. I gave up looking for the kind of positions I used to have, and have applied for anything that interests me. Sadly, I suppose I am OVER qualified for positions like working retail home improvement stores, so I don't even get an interview. I'm willing to work hard, but can't find anyone to give me that chance. I get annoyed when people assume that those of us on unemployment are lazy. I have worked all my life for nearly 30 years and never applied for unemployment before. This time, I had to.
Chedar on Apr 12, 2010 @ 9:12 pmMy company uses software to design pilot plants. The economy is so bad that my last project was on March 2008. The upgrade of just one software every year cost $1000 each year. Since there is not project, the company who sells us the software keep on calling for update. We could not update our software since there is no project. I finally got laid-0ff. Unfotunately, that company who sell that software is where ( my son worked. He got laid-off 6 months after March 2008. To show you how a domino effect is in real life. So hang in to your job. It is real. If congress does not continue bailing out the unemployed in Mainstreet, there will be sadness among you who are currently employed. If the republican think this is not an emergency. Try not to pass the unemployment extension , you will see the domino effect and your job could be next.
mike on Apr 12, 2010 @ 9:00 pmI just saw all Americans should not vote this year! Its obvious that the high and Mighty Politicians think only of people from Other countries rather than looking out for hurting Americans!!
giovanni guzman on Apr 12, 2010 @ 8:57 pmPlease let me know what goes on. and if puerto rico is included in the extension if it passes. Republicans always trying to put the poor down.
Thomas on Apr 12, 2010 @ 8:57 pmWe can only pray that this passes. I, in addition to hundreds of thousands of other Americans ran out of Tier 4 Benefits recently and cannot find a job. A Tier 5 extension would take a huge burden off of mine and many others shoulders, just simple things such as putting food on the table and being able to pay rent that most take for granted are near impossibilities without this extension.
lauri on Apr 12, 2010 @ 8:50 pmI am a republican...also my husband is umemployed and can't seem to find a job. I'm feeling pretty let down by the party I chose to associate myself with. Please help us!!! Desperate in California
Dawn curran on Apr 12, 2010 @ 8:48 pmPlease extend these benefits. My family has only been on it for my first 26 weeks. I have not been on the tier program. I will loose my house without it. I am not kidding. Thanks

KINGSPORT, TENNESSEE, MONDAY, MARCH 20, .1939 EIGHT PAGES TODAY PRICE THREE CENTS ffiC CHAIRMAN NAMED TO HIGH COURT BY F.D.R. W. O. Douglas, Stalwart of New Deal, is Appointed To Succeed Brandeis Queen of Scots7 Sues Sir Oswald WASHINGTON. March William O. Douglas, 40 year old chairman of the securities com- mission, was nominated by Presi- dent Roosevelt today to be an As- sociate justce of the supreme court. If the nomination is confirmed by the senate, Douglas will suc- ceed the veteran Justice Louis D. Brandeis, who retired February 13 after 23 years on the high tribu- nal. Although there had been a wide- spread demand for appointment of a westerner to fill the court va- cancy, Douglas, a former Yale law professor, was appointed from Con- necticut However, Douglas was born in Minnesota and received his early schooling in Washington state. Chairman Ashurst (D-Ariz) of the senate judiciary committee ap- pointed a seven-man subcommit- tee to consider Douglas' nomina- tion. With western senators pre- dominating, the committee was lisfjd as follows: Hatch of New Mexico, King of Utah. McCarran of Nevada, Burke of Nebraska and O'Mahoney of Wyoming, all Democrats, and Bo- rah of Idaho and Danaher of Con- necticut, Republicans.- Hearings The committee was expected to order hearings on the nomination within the next few days. Borah strongly favors Douglas' appointment, and has been active in lining up senate support for the 3ormer Yale law professor. Burke told reporters he had been "favorably impressed" with Doug- Jas and that the latter would make an able justice. Danah described the nomination as "splendid" and said Douglas was "highly qualified and competent." King Objects King, however, had this to say: "They ought to have appointed a man who had some judicial ex- man like Justice Har- old Stephens of the Court of Ap- eals for the District of Columbia ACCUSE PLANTS STORING ARMS TO CURB UNIONS Ban Advocated on Use Ma- chine Guna and Chemicals In Event of Strikes LITHUANIA AGREES TO HAND MENEL TO NAZIS WHEN PROVINCE DEMANDS GERMAN ANNEXATION Tommy's British Actress Mary Tavernaii, above, described by admirers as the "reincarnation of Mary Queen of has filed a slander suit against Sir Oswald Mosely, British fascist leader.

The senate civil liberties commit- tee said today "the 'purchasing and storing of arsenals of firearms and tear and sickening gas weapons is a common practice by large em- ployers who refuse to bargain col- lectively with legitimate labor unions." The committee, headed by Sena- tor La Follette re- commended legislation to prevent the use of machine guns and "of- fensive chemical weapons" in in- dustrial disputes. It also urged that movements of armed com- pany police and strike guards be restricted to plant property. Employers' Rights Any legislation should maintain employers' rights to protect their property, the committee added. It reported that employers pur- chased of tear and sick- ening gas between 1933 and June, 1937, "chiefly during or in antici- pation of strikes." "All of the largest individual purchasers are the report said, "and their totals far surpass those of large law enforce- ment purchasers. "In fact, the largest purchaser of gas equipment in the country, the Republic Steel Corporation, bought four times as much ns the largest law enforcement purchaser." Republic Armed During the "little steel" strike of 1937, the committee said, Re- public had 552 revolvers, 64 rifles with rounds of ammunition, 245 shotguns and rounds of shotgun shells, 143 gas guns and 4.033 gas projectiles, and hand grenades." "Out of worth of gas purchased by the 80 largest private purchasers between January, 1933, and June, the committee said, was bought during strikes or when strikes were threatened. "In all, S364.507 worth of gas was purchased before or during strikes Dr strike threats in which union recognition was teh exclusive or a contributing factor."

Fourth Appointment This was President Roosevelt's fourth appointment in less than two years .to the. nine-man court. There was no vacancy during his first term. Another vacancy would permit him to name a majority of the bench. Chief Justice Charles Ev- ans Hushes will be 77 on April 1, Justice James C.

The Minister, Wilbur J. Carr, was directed to turn the legation over to American consular officials in Prague, capital of the latest country absorbed by Germany's "march to the east." The order went from Washing- ton in the midst of a renewal of congressional debate over Ameri- can foreign policy. The State Department also re- leased a telegram from Carr, dated March 17, which said: "There are no officials of the Czechoslovak .government to which I am accredited with whom I can maintain relations for the protec- tion of the interests of the United States and its citizens."

SENATORS FAVOR TAX LEVY CHANGE MOBILIZATION NEXT MOVE FOR FRANCE Independent Congressio n a 1 Action May Be Asked on Business Levies 20. Sentiment increased in the senate finance committee today for inde- pendent (.ongressional action to overhaul business taxes if Presi- dent Rooseve.'t fails to recommend their revision. The President said last week the Treasury was malting tactual stud- ies to ascertain effects of suggest- ed changes in the tax structure. He revenues remain- at :heir present level. Chairman Harrison (D-Miss) of the finance committee said he stood ready to cooperate with Secretar- ies Morgenthau and Hopkins, both of whom have suggested that taxes could be revised in an effort to encourage business. Senator George a finance committee member, said he inter- preted Mr. Roosevelt's recent state- ments as indicating the'chief exe- cutive had no desire to. revamp the present system. Up To Congress Senators Adams (D-Colo) and Austin (R-Vt) agreed with George that congress should take matters into its..own' hands in the event administration .proposals are not forthcoming. George told reporters there was no doubt that majority of the sen- ate favored overhauling corpora- tion taxes. Congressional talk is centering "on a proposal to substi- tute a fiat-rate levy on corporation income for the existing undistri- buted profits, capital stock and ex- cess profits taxes. Administration followers argue that this might deter business, be- cause a higher rate would bi3 ne- cessary to compensate for existing levies.

Air India receives four bids from property consultants for $900M monetisation plan
Air India, the financially strapped state-owned carrier which is looking to raise Rs 5,000 crore ($900 million) through monetisation of its land assets across the country and abroad over the next 10 years, has received bids from four property consultants to manage the transactions, according to sources close to the development.
Air India has set a target of raising Rs 500 crore through either sale or development of the properties by March 2013.
Four international property consultants bid on the request for proposal, including Jones Lang LaSalle India (JLL India), Cushman and Wakefield, Knight Frank and DTZ & Colliers, a source privy to the development told VCCircle on condition of anonymity. "JLL India is the L1 bidder and front-runner for the asset monetisation plan," he added.
An L1 bidder is one who bids the lowest and typically receives the entire or majority quantity of the work.
E-mail queries sent to three of the bidders (JLL India, Knight Frank and DTZ & Colliers) did not elicit any response till the time of posting this article.
According to Air India's original plan, approved by the Indian government on May 14 this year, the carrier was supposed to appoint a consultant by June 2012 to go ahead with its asset monetisation programme.
Air India targets to raise Rs 500 crore each year for the next 10 years. On October 10, it asked for proposal bids for appointment of real estate consultants for property monetisation in India and abroad.
Although Air India's prized Nariman Point commercial office building is not part of this transaction, it includes various other assets.
In the first stage of monetisation, it has put up commercial office space, residential quarters, booking offices and open land parcels in Agartala, Ahmedabad, Amritsar, Aurangabad, Bangalore, Bhopal, Bhubaneshwar, Chennai, Coimbatore, Delhi, Goa, Gurgaon, Hyderabad, Jaipur, Jammu, Kolkata, Mangalore, Lucknow, Mumbai, Nasik, Patna, Pune, Trivandrum, Visakhapatnam and other cities.
Of its international assets, it has put 25,000 sq ft owned property in London on the block and two residential flats in Tokyo of nearly 3,000 sq ft each.
Air India is looking at monetising these assets through long leasing, asset sale, development, redevelopment and leveraging of properties. Through this value-generation programme, the debt-ridden national carrier is looking for upfront lease premium in lieu of the development rights given to the real estate developers. It is also looking at leasing of its surplus owned facilities at various domestic and international airports.
The last date for submission of bids was October 16, 2012. Air India plans to monetise some of its assets within six months of finalising the property consultant.

Layoffs more widespread this recession
California, Midwest suffer greatest pain
Recessions can be notoriously uneven. They can wreak havoc with the livelihood of factory workers but not that of bank tellers or nurses. Whole industries can see jobs washed away forever, while others hum along and even grow.
This time, however, the pain is more widespread, economists say, affecting the investment banker, the auto worker, the warehouse manager and the toy store clerk.
So far this year, companies have announced layoffs that affect more than 1 million jobs, according to jobs placement firm Challenger, Gray & Christmas. Bank of America, Dow Chemical, Anheuser-Busch Inbev, General Motors and Circuit City are among the growing number of companies that are letting people go.
Another key difference with past recessions has been the downturn's "serial nature," said Jerry Nickelsburg, an economist with the UCLA Anderson School of Management.
In other words, the recession did not affect industries and regions at once, but rolled out in spurts.
Industries that have seen some of the steepest job losses include construction, financial services, retail and manufacturing. The regional differences in job losses reflect how large a role those industries play in a given area's economy.
In California, for example, a major site of the housing bubble, the construction business began shedding jobs in 2006. The unemployment rate rose to 8.4 percent, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics. Residential building-related job losses in California had begun to slow down this fall, Nickelsburg said. But because of a drop in consumer spending, three-quarters of the jobs California lost in November were tied to the retail sector, he said.
The state government is the latest casualty of the recession. Smaller tax receipts and tighter credit have left California strapped for cash, and last week the governor announced mass layoffs and furloughs.
Perhaps the only region hurting more is the industrial Midwest. Michigan, home of the Big Three U.S. automakers, for example, leads the nation in unemployment with a rate of 9.6 percent, BLS data show. The national average is 6.7 percent. The U.S. economy has lost 604,000 manufacturing jobs over the past year, BLS said.
The states that are having a better time weathering the storm benefited from record prices for energy and agricultural commodities earlier this year.
Texas, for example, is likely to end the year with about 1.5 percent job growth, said Keith Phillips, an economist with the Federal Reserve Bank of Dallas. High prices for natural gas over the summer is one reason. Another is that Texas didn't experience the large swings in home values that some other states did.
But Texas is not immune to the downturn. Prices for natural gas have come down and the state is expected to lose jobs at a rate of 1.5 percent next year, Phillips said.
That's still good relative to other parts of the country. Wachovia analyst John Silvia, who tracks the Texas economy, said a drop in energy prices is not likely to trigger mass layoffs on the scale of the auto or construction industries because of the nature of the business.
"Given that it takes so long to produce energy, especially oil, you're not going to lay off workers for a short-term weakness in the economy," he said.
Many of those who have been or are about to be laid off will have to find a new line of work, several economists said, because they won't be able to go back to their old one.
The construction industry has shed 780,000 jobs since September 2006, according to the BLS, and it isn't likely to go back to bubblelike levels any time soon, experts said. Further, an anticipated decline in the construction of office buildings, apartments and shopping centers is likely to spur more layoffs in 2009.

After they were all picked up, I told the smokers not to be caught throwing a butt on the ground. The next day, someone did it again. I had this guy dig a hole, 6 x 6 x 6 and bury his cigarette butt. After he had filled the hole back in, and made the ground look undisturbed, I came to my senses. "you know, that's still littering if it's not in a trash can. Dig your cigarette back up and throw it away. Then fill the hole in and leave the ground looking undisturbed" .... Solved that problem Litterbugs in general are really just shitty people.

When each posts videos of their violent sprees online, the pair find one another on the Internet and begin a toxic and competitive duel. While Bayu clings to the hope that he can resume a normal life, Nomura continues to spill blood without remorse. Killing, advises Nomura, is something everyone ought to consider.

Strange that so much fear was evoked by the most gentle soul. Human shades perhaps. But.. there is another angle to these kind of situations. Many times even thou we are not talking..or dislike a person, there is a genuine emotion that arises in the heart that of warmth. But we hold back owing to our ego/pride. If we succeed in crossing these territories of ego/pride..it may at times melt the other person..thou not always. Wish more and more of us listen to tat first emotion felt in the heart.ReplyDelete

I am looking at a discrete-time random walk on $(\mathbb{Z}^{+})^n$, where $\mathbb{Z}^{+}:=\{0,1,2,\dots\}$ and $n\in\mathbb{N}$. At any time, the random walk chooses a uniformly random co-ordinate and then either walks up (by 1) w.p. $p<\frac{1}{2}$ or tries to walk down (by 1) w.p. $1−p$, so nothing happens if he is already at the boundary. I would like to show that this random walk has exponential ergodicity, that is, $$P(\text{not returned to $(0,...,0)$ by time }t)\leq e^{-\eta t}$$for some constant $\eta$. Any hints on how I might do this?

The $\mathbf{1}$-Dimensional Problem
According to the result here, the number of unilateral walks of type-$k$ (the number of strings of $k\;$ "$+1$"s and $k\;$ "$-1$"s whose partial sums are never negative) is $$ \frac{1}{k+1}\binom{2k}{k}\tag{1} $$ In the same article, it is shown that $$ \frac{1-\sqrt{1-4x}}{2x}=\sum_{k=0}^\infty\frac{1}{k+1}\binom{2k}{k}x^k\tag{2} $$ A walk of length $2k+2$ would be a "$+1$" followed by a walk of type $k$ and finished with a "$-1$" resulting in a probability of $$ \frac{1}{k+1}\binom{2k}{k}p^{k+1}(1-p)^{k+1}\tag{3} $$ Plugging $(3)$ into $(2)$ yields a total probability of $p$, which is exactly as expected since there is only a probability $p$ of an initial "$+1$".
To compute the probability of a walk of length at least $2m+2$, sum $(3)$ for $k\ge m$. For this, we will use Stirling's Approximation to get $$ \begin{align} \binom{2k}{k} &=\frac{4^k}{\sqrt{\pi k}}\left(1-\frac{1}{8k}+O\left(\frac{1}{k^2}\right)\right)\\ &\le\frac{4^k}{\sqrt{\pi k}}\qquad\text{for }k\ge1\tag{4} \end{align} $$ Plugging $(4)$ into $(3)$ and summing for $k\ge m$ yields that the probability of a walk of length at least $2m+2$ is $$ \begin{align} \sum_{k=m}^\infty\frac{1}{k+1}\binom{2k}{k}p^{k+1}(1-p)^{k+1} &\le\sum_{k=m}^\infty\frac{1}{k+1}\frac{4^k}{\sqrt{\pi k}}p^{k+1}(1-p)^{k+1}\\ &\le\frac{p(1-p)}{m\sqrt{\pi m}}\sum_{k=m}^\infty4^kp^{k}(1-p)^{k}\\ &=\frac{p(1-p)m^{-3/2}}{\sqrt{\pi}(1-2p)^2}(4p(1-p))^m\tag{5} \end{align} $$ Bound $(5)$ is in the form desired when $p<\frac12$.
Letting $t=2m+2$ in $(5)$, we get that the probability of a walk of length at least $t\ge4$ is no greater than $$ \frac{1}{4\sqrt{\pi}(1-2p)^2}(4p(1-p))^{t/2}=\frac{1}{4\sqrt{\pi}(1-2p)^2}e^{-\eta\,t}\tag{6} $$ where $\eta=-\frac12\log(4p(1-p))>0$ when $0<p<\frac12$.
As has been pointed out, I need to rework the $n$-dimensional extension.
Caveat: This is a partial answer, restricted to the regime $p\lt1/(n+1)$.
For every $x$ in $(\mathbb Z^+)^n$, let $|x|$ denote the sum of the coordinates of $x$ and $z(x)$ the proportion of coordinates $i$ such that $x_i=0$. Let $(X_t)_t$ denote the Markov chain in $(\mathbb Z^+)^n$, starting from $X_0\ne0$, and $T$ the first hitting time of $0$. For every $a\ne0$, $$ \mathrm E(a^{|X_{t+1}|}\mid\mathcal F^X_t)=a^{|X_t|}\cdot n^{-1}\sum_{i=1}^n\left(pa+(1-p)a^{-1}[X_t^{(i)}\ne0]+(1-p)[X_t^{(i)}=0]\right), $$ thus, $\mathrm E(a^{|X_{t+1}|}\mid\mathcal F^X_t)=a^{|X_t|}b(X_t)$, where $$ b(x)=pa+(1-p)a^{-1}(1-z(x))+(1-p)z(x). $$ Assume that $a\gt1$, then $b(x)$ is maximal when $z(x)\leqslant1-n^{-1}$ is maximal, that is, for every $x\ne0$, $b(x)\leqslant c(a)$ with $$ c(a)=pa+(1-p)a^{-1}n^{-1}+(1-p)(1-n^{-1}). $$ Hence $(M_t)_{t\leqslant T}$ is a positive supermartingale, where $M_t=a^{|X_t|}c(a)^{-t}$. In particular, $\mathrm E(M_T)\leqslant M_0$, that is, for every $x\ne0$, $$ \mathrm E_x(c(a)^{-T})\leqslant a^{|x|}. $$ If, for some $a\gt1$, $c(a)\lt1$, this yields the exponential control $$ \mathrm P_x(T\geqslant t)\leqslant c(a)^t\mathrm E_x(c(a)^{-T})\leqslant c(a)^ta^{|x|}, $$ hence we are done since one can relate the distribution of $T$ starting from $X_0=0$ to the distribution of $T$ starting from any neighbour $x$ of $0$, namely, $$ \mathrm P_0(T\geqslant t+1)=p\mathrm P_x(T\geqslant t)\leqslant pac(a)^t. $$ Finally, $c(1)=1$ and $c'(1)=p-(1-p)n^{-1}$ hence we are done for every $p\lt1/(n+1)$.

openerp_report_designer.zip Open Office version?
Is there a particular version of Open Office that openerp_report_designer.zip is compatible with? I am running version 3.4.1 and it doesn't seem to recognize the extension.
Thanks, Lev
Hi you need to rename the file extension as .zip as the contents are zipped and you can install this extension in openoffice writer.
see the bugs fixed in lunchpad
openerp_report_designer.zip not working on OpenOffice 3.3
hope it work for you
Interesting... I got the Open Office openerp_report_designer.zip extension to work under LibreOffice under Ubuntu, but I still have not figured out how to make it work with Windows 7 and Open Office.
Now I've just got to figure out the install on the base_report_designer install on the openerp server. Ubuntu under a VMware Player recognizes the Windows 7 server, but comes up with the error message "Please install base_report_designer module" when I try to connect from LibreOffice to the openerp server. I guess that is a separate question.
