text: Administration Contributions to be a Material Expense for Many Pensions July 20, 2012 (PLANSPONSOR.com) - A majority of large U.S. corporate pension plans are underfunded, with future contributions a material expense for many over the coming years, according to a Fitch Ratings report. By Rebecca Moore email@example.com | July 20, 2012 Fitch's review encompassed 230 nonfinancial U.S.-based companies with defined benefit pension plans that have U.S. projected benefits obligations (PBOs) of $100 million or more. Of the 230 companies analyzed, 160 were less than 80% funded and warrant further investigation, based on the 80% 'at-risk' threshold in the Pension Protection Act (PPA). Of the remaining 70 companies, 43 were funded in the 80% to 90% range, while 27 companies were funded above the 90% level. The capital goods, consumer and retailing sectors stood out with median plan funding levels of less than 70%. Fitch believes the contribution amounts are material for many issuers. In Fitch's sample, 34% of the 230 companies have an estimated pension outflow as a percentage of pre-contribution funds from operations (FFO), or cash flow from operations less working capital, above a 10% threshold. Another five companies had negative FFO before pension contributions. Fitch estimates that the potential funding requirements of nine companies could amount to 40% or more of their 2011 pre-contribution FFO. Relief provided for under the 'Moving Ahead for Progress in the 21st Century Act' (MAP-21) signed in July may allow plan sponsors to lower near-term pension contributions. MAP-21 provides for a materially higher discount rate for funding purposes, thus lower the present value of liabilities. In Fitch's opinion, cash flow constrained issuers may benefit from the near-term relief, but for the majority of plan sponsors a more prudent approach will call for funding above minimum levels (see "DB Sponsors Have Incentive to Keep Plans Well Funded").

Open-source vs. Proprietary – Keeping Ideology Out of the EquationSubmitted by Roy Schestowitz on Saturday 28th of May 2016 08:16:12 AM Filed under
Open-source really means no more and no less than making the source code readily available to anyone. Thus, open-source makes no statement as to the licensing conditions for using the software, whether there are charges for using the software, whether the software is supported, or actively developed, or any good, and so on. Closed-source means that source code is not readily available, but makes no comment on issues like licensing, costs, support, and quality.

Open-source vs. Proprietary – Keeping Ideology Out of the Equation
Most users of software sensibly employ a mixture of software tools that span open-source, closed-source, proprietary, 'free' and in-house. Many modern software developers also decide to use a hybrid of open-source and proprietary models within an integrated code-base. Advocating either open-source only, or commercial only, software dogmas are both narrow-minded and unhelpful in allowing the researcher or the business the freedom to deliver the best outcomes.
Genode OS 16.05 Adds Rust Support, Updated Device Drivers

Twitter open-sources Heron for real-time stream analytics
Heron, the real-time stream-processing system Twitter devised as a replacement for Apache Storm, is finally being open-sourced after powering Twitter for more than two years.
Twitter explained in a blog post that it created Heron because it needed more than speed and scale from its real-time stream processing framework. The company also needed easier debugging, easier deployment and management capabilities, and the ability to work well in a shared, multitenant cluster environment.

Open source wifi enabled 3D printer controller Franklin speeds up with new release
3D printing hit the mainstream a few years ago thanks in part to the open-source 3D printer market. The origins of this transition had to do with expiring patents held by the traditionally held commercial 3D printing companies. Since then, several small businesses have sprung up around the emerging low-cost 3D printer market. Some of these companies embraced the open-source mentality, while others are seeking shelter with patents.
Hackaday Prize Entry: Open-Source Myoelectric Hand Prosthesis

We are delighted to see that [Alvaro Villoslada] joined the Hackaday Prize with his contribution to advanced prosthesis technology: Dextra, the open-source myoelectric hand prosthesis.
BCN3D Technologies releases open source files for BCN3D Sigma 3D printer
As our readers will know, an important part of the 3D printing community is the idea of accessibility. Of course, it is more than just an idea, as everyday makers around the world share their 3D designs and models for free, and even 3D printing companies exercise an open-source philosophy with DIY 3D printers and accessible models. Recently, Barcelona based 3D printer developer BCN3D Technologies decided to further embrace the additive manufacturing open-source philosophy with their latest initiative, Open Source 360º. As part of the initiative, the company has announced that it will share all of its engineering, design, and fabrication information used in the manufacturing of their flagship product, the BCN3D Sigma 3D printer.
Shellmo: Aquatic 3D printed robot for fun and education
Recently I came across a very interesting open hardware project called Shellmo. What caught my eye was that it's a 3D printed crustacean that seems to have no apparent real world use, though with a little creativity I can see educational implications.
Shellmo is a unique, almost cartoon-like creatures that could captivate the imagination of children while at the same time affording them an opportunity to 3D print their own robot. With the current emphasis on STEM in education, Shellmo appears to be the kind of project that would stimulate student interest.
Using Open Source Software, Powering Potential and the Raspberry Pi Foundation Bring Technology to Schools in TanzaniaSubmitted by Roy Schestowitz on Saturday 28th of May 2016 01:14:56 AM Filed under
Thanks to open source, Powering Potential and the Raspberry Pi Foundation are able to bring computers and a library of digital education content to rural schools in the East African nation of Tanzania. Recently, the Foundation funded a project now distributing Raspberry Pi computers with uploaded educational content alongside portable projectors and screens to 56 schools across the Zanzibar archipelago and two mainland regions of Tanzania. The Segal Family Foundation also provided matching funds, which enables the project to give computer training as well.
With a five-fold increase in the number of students in the decade following 2003, the nation is struggling to provide more schools, classrooms, teachers, desks, and textbooks. Yet whenever you visit rural secondary schools in Tanzania, you will find eager girls and boys in roughly equal numbers outfitted in uniforms with ready smiles.

Why Open-Source Pros Are in Great Demand
The majority of hiring managers predict that the demand for open-source IT professionals will rise more than other recruitment-based areas of interest over the next six months, according to a recent survey from the Linux Foundation and Dice. The resulting report, "Moving Toward Professionalization: Rising Need for Open-Source Skills in 2016," indicates that these managers struggle to fill open-source positions, especially when trying to find candidates with needed cloud, networking and/or security experience. Meanwhile, when considering an offer, open-source professionals said they're most interested in working on appealing projects with cutting-edge technology challenges. Money and perks are of secondary interest, even though, given the hot market, many open-source specialists are able to negotiate a great compensation package. According to the report, "In the last decade, open-source development has experienced a massive shift: Once a mostly community and volunteer-based concern, the model has since become a mainstay of the IT industry. Flexibility in accommodating new technologies and speed at adapting to a changing market have made open source vital to modern companies, which are now investing zealously in open source and open-source talent. More and better code is the way forward, and the skilled professionals who can make it happen are highly in demand." More than 400 hiring managers and 4,500 open-source professionals took part in the research.

American schools are teaching our kids how to code all wrong
To truly impact an children's cognitive development, and prepare them for future computing jobs that may not even exist yet, we must move beyond pop computing. I strongly believe that learning computing should become mandatory in all schools, and should be viewed in the same context as reading and writing. Students must be challenged and encouraged to think differently in each grade level, subject matter, and read/write various computing projects every day in their academic life. With this mindset and approach we'll help this generation of students fill those one million jobs, all of which require so much more than dragging and clicking.

AT&T: OPNFV Can Bring Open Source Sanity
The Big Communications Event -- It will be up to one open source group, the Open Platform for NFV (OPNFV), to provide a "fair playing field" to sort the multiple industry open source initiatives around orchestration, an AT&T executive said here Wednesday.
Telecom Companies Collaborate Through OPNFV to Address Unique Business Challenges
Network Functions Virtualization (NFV) is an emerging alternative to using dedicated hardware appliances, particularly for service providers, where quick, flexible responses to traffic pattern shifts and user demand changes are essential. It implements network tasks like access security, load balancing, and packet filtering as software modules suitable for virtualized cloud environments.

Announcing the Open Source License APISubmitted by Roy Schestowitz on Friday 27th of May 2016 01:57:04 AM Filed under
Over the last 19 years, the Open Source Initiative (OSI) has been the steward of the Open Source Definition (or OSD), establishing a common language when discussing what it means to be an Open Source license, and a list of licenses which are known to be compatible with the OSD.
This is taken to its logic next step this year, with the OSI providing a machine readable publication of OSI approved licenses at api.opensource.org. This will allow third parties to become license-aware, and give organizations the ability to clearly determine if a license is, in fact, an Open Source license, from the authoritative source regarding Open Source licenses, the OSI.
Arduino Uno-like board controls three-phase EV motorsSubmitted by Rianne Schestowitz on Thursday 26th of May 2016 09:50:20 PM Filed under
Uniti's "Uniti ARC" is an open source, Arduino Uno compatible microcontroller board, designed for controlling three-phase motors in electric vehicles.
Swedish electric car startup Uniti calls the Uniti ARC "the world's first open-source commercial development board for three phase motors with Arduino Uno compatibility." Together with an optional ARC motor shield and a free software suite built around the Arduino IDE, Uniti ARC is designed for makers, startups, educators, and others who want to prototype three-phase-motor electric vehicles, says the company. Uniti is making its own electric car prototype using the platform.
3 open source alternatives to AutoCADSubmitted by Rianne Schestowitz on Thursday 26th of May 2016 03:52:49 PM Filed under
The trick for deciding whether a replacement piece of software, whether open or closed, is a good choice for you is to tease out exactly what your needs are. The situation is no different than discovering that the person who insists that they "need" Photoshop is just using it to draw a few geometric shapes and remove red eye from photos; what they really need is a graphics editing tool that can replace those specific functions. Whether it has all of the bells and whistles of the original is irrelevant if those features sit paid for but unused.
My personal journey through open source CAD programs was no different. I had worked with AutoCAD briefly in grad school, and so when I wanted to play with drawing three-dimensional plans for something, it was pretty much all I knew. But that alone didn't make AutoCAD the best choice.

Marriage in the buybull and through most of Western history was traditionally many brides, child brides, brides as property.Marriage is between a man (male) and a woman (female). Plainly, homosexuals have chosen to reject the concept of traditional marriage
And in most of the industrialized democracies marriage can be same sex. You claim about what marriage is would have been phrased "what marriage should be in my opinion" by any person not engulfed in clinical denial.

Dow Up 261 on Rebound From Sharp Sell-Off
Published: Friday, March 21, 2008 at 5:58 a.m.
Last Modified: Friday, March 21, 2008 at 5:58 a.m.
NEW YORK | Wall Street capped a week of remarkable volatility with a big advance Thursday that left stocks higher for the week but didn't silence all of investors' concerns about the economy and the financial system.
Bargain-hunting and a milder-than-expected drop in a regional manufacturing report helped leaven stocks Thursday. The Dow Jones industrial average rose more than 261 points on the day, giving the blue chips a gain of more than 3 percent for the week. Broader indexes finished the week with gains of 2 percent to 3 percent. The markets are closed for Good Friday.
A week that opened with fearful questions over the soundness of the financial system following the near collapse of Bear Stearns Cos. ended on a more upbeat note, thanks in part to the Federal Reserve's efforts to inject both liquidity and calm into the markets.
The Dow on Thursday rose 261.66, or 2.16 percent, to 12,361.32, and gained 3.43 percent for the week.
Broader stock indicators also advanced. The Standard & Poor's 500 index rose 31.09, or 2.39 percent, to 1,329.51, and the Nasdaq composite index rose 48.15, or 2.18 percent, to 2,258.11.
For the week, the S&P rose 3.21 percent, while the Nasdaq gained 2.06 percent.
Thursday's gains came a day after a steep drop that eroded most of a 420-point gain in the Dow on Tuesday - the biggest in more than five years - following the Fed's decision to lower its benchmark interest rate by 0.75 percentage point to 2.25 percent.
Bond prices rose Thursday. The yield on the benchmark 10-year Treasury note, which moves opposite its price, fell to 3.34 percent from 3.41 percent late Wednesday.
The dollar rose against some other major currencies such as the euro.
Light, sweet crude fell 70 cents to settle at $101.84 on the New York Mercantile Exchange.
Gold declined, hitting a one-month low as the stronger dollar helped quell some inflation concerns.
The Russell 2000 index of smaller companies rose 17.29, or 2.60 percent, to 681.42.
Advancing issues outnumbered decliners by about 3 to 1 on the New York Stock Exchange, where consolidated volume came to a heavy 6.12 billion shares compared with 5.3 billion shares traded Wednesday.

Crime activities are geospatial phenomena and as such are geospatially, thematically and temporally correlated. Thus, crime datasets must be interpreted and analyzed in conjunction with various factors that can contribute to the formulation of crime. Discovering these correlations allows a deeper insight into the complex nature of criminal behavior. We introduce a graph based dataset representation that allows us to mine a set of datasets for correlation. We demonstrate our approach with real crime datasets and provide a comparison with other techniques.

Our area of Glendale is very quiet, but within a couple of miles exciting downtown Glendale. Very close to many great restaurants/bars, movie theaters, shopping, etc. If you prefer to relax, there are also many parks and nature hikes in the area.
Getting Around
You can walk/bike to downtown Glendale where you will find everything you need. Grocery/shopping walking distance. There are also public buses and a Metrolink train station in our neighborhood.

Martin & Tayla
Hi, My name is Martin Briseno and I am the president and co-founder of The Media Dept., a small production company in Los Angeles. I love what I do so much that finding time to unwind and relax is difficult. I mostly work from home so I try to balance my professional and personal life with the upmost comfort in mind. I like meeting new people and discovering new places. I always find time to stay fascinated with the world around us and I hope to meet you soon.
