Abstract. One of the textbook investment strategies, known as portfolio optimization, displays an inherent instability to estimation error when applied to large portfolios, such as those of banks or insurance companies. This poses a fundamental problem, because solutions that are not stable under sample fluctuations may look optimal for a given sample, but are, in effect, very far from optimal with respect to the average risk.
I will talk about a novel approach to the portfolio selection problem. From the point of view of statistical learning theory (or machine learning), the occurrence of the instability is intimately related to over-fitting which can be avoided using known regularization methods. I will discuss how regularized portfolio optimization with the expected shortfall as a risk measure is related to support vector regression. The budget constraint, however, dictates a modification resulting in a slightly different algorithm. The L2 norm of the weight vector is used as a regularizer, which corresponds to a diversification "pressure". This means that diversification, besides counteracting downward fluctuations in some assets by upward fluctuations in others, is also crucial because it improves the stability of the solution. The approach I provide here allows for the simultaneous treatment of optimization and diversification in one
framework which enables the investor to trade-off between the two, depending on the size of the available data set. I will discuss how one can characterize the typical behavior, in the limit of large portfolio sizes, and show how regularization removes the instability. The necessity to regularize the portfolio selection problem, besides being a statistical consideration, can also be derived from the following reasoning: If an investor considers the cash flow that could be generated by liquidating a portfolio, and if the investor takes into account that the liquidation of large positions will have an impact on the market, then the need to regularize portfolio optimization emerges naturally from considering the feedback on prices.

Online readers weren't all happy to hear the FCC would be automatically pushing Amber Alert notifications (America's Missing: Broadcast Emergency Response) to smartphone users.

With the Giants leading 2-0 in Game 3 and Tim Lincecum pitching in relief, Crawford dived to rob Miguel Cabrera of a potential single up the middle with no outs in the eighth inning
Shouldn't it have been "dove" instead of "dived"?
Both dived and dove are standard as the past tense of dive. Dived, historically the older form, is somewhat more common in edited writing, but dove occurs there so frequently that it also must be considered standard: The rescuer dove into 20 feet of icy water. Dove is an Americanism that probably developed by analogy with alternations like drive, drove and ride, rode.
Dove sounds better for some reason.

It is the Law in the UK to have your business waste under control if you rent or own a premises. You will need to contact your local council or hire a business waste clearance company to do this for you.
A huge amount of all the waste generated from offices comprises of waste papers. Often, most people just tear papers into two once they have used them, or send it to the paper shredder. Well, there is a better way to dispose of your waste paper; you can recycle it, and come up with something useful.
These 5 tips can give you ideas on how best to transform your waste paper into something useful;
- Both sides of the paper; more often than not, we tend to use only one side of the paper and ignore the other side. But in the real sense, we should make an effort to exhaust both sides of the waste paper. You can use the other blank side of the paper to do quick calculations, scribble down notes, etc.
- Greeting cards; you can also be creative and design your own unique greeting cards out of waste papers. You just need to trim any torn parts, and then fold it creatively in a way that conceals any writings on it.
- Make walls; shredded paper can also be compressed into a pulp, then coated, to come up with a very robust material to make solid walls. The same technology used to manufacture plywood can be used here. The shredded papers are then combined with sodium silicate which is a gluing agent.
- Toys/ artwork; waste paper can also be used in art lessons. Papers can be folded in a certain way, and then carefully trimmed with scissors to come up with objects of different shapes.
- Envelopes; how about using the waste paper to make your own unique envelopes? You just need to ensure that the blank side of the paper is on the outside; you fold it neatly, then join the edges with office glue. It is indeed very easy to come up with your own envelopes out of waste papers.

A Pathfinder Roleplaying Game adventure by Creighton Broadhurst for four 1st-level PCs
In the frozen depths of winter, murderous winds mercilessly batter the crumbling Priory of Cymer. Within, trapped by their duty and the heaped snowdrifts that render travel near impossible, the few remaining faithful huddle together and tend the sacred places of their forbears. With the weather worsening, nerves fray and tempers snap as the wind howls its mournful dirge for the forgotten dead of a fallen time. But the worst is yet to come. One of those trapped within holds a murderous grudge that only blood can expunge, and as the storm reaches its savage height, terrible revenge is wrought amid the frigid halls and faded glories of a bygone age.
Visit www.ragingswan.com to download bonus materials including maps, graphics, reorganised stat block listings, pregenerated characters and more.
This ZIP file includes two versions of Retribution, one optimised for printing and use on a normal computer and one optimised for use on a mobile device such as an iPad. You can learn more about Raging Swan's Dual Format PDF initiative at ragingswan.com
"A fantasy roleplaying campaign can always use spooky, atmospheric low-level adventures, and RETRIBUTION is a solid, useful foray. It's "old school" in the best sense of that term: the adventure, its setting, its characters, and its new elements have all been carefully and lovingly detailed and thought through. The result is truly ready-to-use, and its elements lend themselves to easy re-use in an ongoing campaign. Recommended."
"Retribution is a wintry scenario that makes full use of the weather to create a claustrophobic and gritty introduction. This is followed by an excellent middle, with something for every party as it is full of investigation, roleplaying, and combat, before building to a worthy climax. Overall, it is an excellent scenario that can be slotted into any campaign and, with very little work, any roleplaying system."
"A gripping gothic yarn. Retribution is one part classic pulp, one part The Name of the Rose, and all around a compelling narrative with exciting encounters and absorbing NPCs. It will no doubt leave a lasting impression on every adventurer who dares winter on the Lonely Coast."

TX-GOV: New Poll Shows Hutchinson Lead

Back in December, an internal poll for Kay Bailey Hutchison showed the U.S. senator ousting Texas Gov. Rick Perry 55%-31% in a 2010 Republican primary. At the time, Perry's campaign scoffed at the poll to the Houston Chronicle:
Perry pollster Mike Baselice, while declining to release figures, said the governor's team has its own poll showing that in a Republican primary, "He beats her like a drum."
However, a new survey this week from Public Policy Polling was strikingly similar to the Hutchison campaign's internal. It showed Hutchison leading Perry 56%-31%.
If the Perry campaign disagrees with this finding, they should release their own numbers. Otherwise, they'll have to concede that it's Hutchison who is the percussionist and Perry, at this very early stage of the campaign, is playing the part of the drum.

PAWTUCKET, RI - The IronPigs use two homeruns to break out of their offensive slump, beating the Pawtucket Red Sox 7-3 to avoid the four-game series sweep.
Lehigh Valley took advantage of the PawSox defensive miscues to take a second-inning lead; with DH Jim Murphy scoring on a fielder's choice after going from first to third base on two pass balls from knuckleballer RHP Steven Wright. A throwing error by catcher Dan Butler on a double-steal attempt allowed OF Tony Gwynn Jr. to score with two outs giving the IronPigs a two-run advantage.
OF Bryce Brentz hit what appeared to be a game-tying homerun in the bottom of the third inning, but the ball was ruled in-play, resulting in an RBI-triple. PawSox Manager Kevin Boles would be ejected after arguing that the ball hit the foul-pole, which should result in a homerun, but Brentz would score a batter later on a 3B Carlos Rivero single, tying the game a two.
Murphy would break the tie his eleventh homerun of the season, to the cheers of many friends and family local to the Rhode Island area. The IronPigs' designated hitter led the team's 12-hit brigade with a three-hit night, one of four Pigs with multiple hits.
The IroPigs would add to that one-run lead in the top of the fifth inning, with a four-run frame highlighted starting with a 1B Maikel Franco RBI-single to score 2B Tyler Henson. The next batter was OF John Mayberry Jr., who gave Lehigh Valley a 7-2 lead with a three-run blast; his first since joining the IronPigs this season.
A Rivero solo-homer in the bottom half of the inning off of Lehigh Valley starter LHP Greg Smith would cut the Lead to 7-3, but the bullpens would take over and not allow another run over the final four frames.
Smith would be relieved two batters later, using 106 pitches to get through four and two-thirds innings, allowing three runs (two earned) on eight hits while striking out four.
RHP Hector Neris relieved Smith to get the final out of the fifth inning, and went on to throw two and one-third innings of scoreless, one-hit baseball; earning his fourth win of the season.
RHP Luis Garcia then came on to record the final six outs of the ballgame, allowing two hits and two walks while striking out three; but, entering the game with a four-run lead did not earn save number twenty on the season.
The IronPigs return to Coca-Cola Park on Saturday to begin their final homestand that will include nine games in eight days. Saturday's doubleheader will begin a 5:35 p.m. and see RHP Jeff Manship take on RHP Mitch Lively in game one.

text: Blues Lincoln Durham's Dark Blues Reveals What's Inside An 'Unraveling Mind' By Charlie Shelton & Frank Stasio • May 27, 2016 Robyn Von Swank Lincoln Durham is not afraid to reveal his demons. In his latest album, Revelations of a Mind Unraveling, Durham delivers dark and gritty punk-blues. As a one-man band, Durham arms himself with salvaged vintage instruments like cigar-box guitars and banjos to create his Southern Gothic sound. 'Bars, Blues And Booze: Stories From The Drink House' By Anita Rao & Frank Stasio • Apr 5, 2016 David Bolton There is a kind of musician who stays true to his or her passion, no matter the cost. They may have to hustle at side jobs to make ends meet, but they will do whatever it takes to make it to their gigs at local bars. While that narrative is somewhat romanticized, it holds true for many professional musicians. Scott Ainslie, A Musician of All Trades By Anita Rao & Frank Stasio • Mar 9, 2016 Scott Ainslie When Scott Ainslie was just three years old, his mother found him sitting at the piano playing melodies from records she played around the house. His proclivity toward music seemed innate, and his musical career evolved from there. He went on to learn every instrument he could get his hands on from flute to guitar, fiddle, and banjo. But he has also devoted his career to learning the deep history of American music and translating those stories to a public audience. Neil Cribbs Combines Folk, Blues, Jazz, Americana In Latest Album By Frank Stasio & Andrew Tie • Sep 18, 2015 Staton Carter Photography Neil Cribbs has had a full tour of North Carolina scenery in his life. He grew up in Wilmington and attended college at Appalachian State University. He spent a few years working outside the state after college but returned home and now lives in Raleigh. Cribbs is a guitarist and singer with many musical influences including folk, blues and Americana. Phil Cook Brings The Sounds Of The South Together In Debut Solo Album By Eric Hodge, Rebecca Martinez, Charlie Shelton & Frank Stasio • Sep 11, 2015 Middle West Management Listen Listening... / 7:44 Hear Eric Hodge's interview with Phil Cook. Listen Listening... / 17:29 Phil Cook plays live on The State of Things Wisconsin native Phil Cook headed south for a new home in North Carolina 10 years ago. Since then, he has been in a band with Justin Vernon from Bon Iver, formed Megafaun with his brother Brad Cook and drummer Joe Westerlund, and has played on or produced records by everybody from Amy Ray of the Indigo Girls to Hiss Golden Messenger. Along the way, Phil got married, had a son and settled himself deep in North Carolina's red clay. Now he's releasing his first solo record called Southland Mission. Fans of Megafaun will find Cook's new music to be groovier with a more rootsy vibe than some of that band's work, but there are hints of the past in some of the vocal harmonies and instrumentation. On the whole, the album reflects a passion for southern music that's been growing in Cook for decades. "I had the title of the record before I had the songs written. I liked the idea that a title for a record is a theme for your life, a theme for your music, and seems to be the title of the chapter for wherever you're at," Cook said. "To me, Southland Mission seemed like a great way to sum up being in the South for 10 years now, and longed to be in the South 10 years before that. I had built up quite a mission in my mind about, 'What was I coming down here for?' Well, it was the music." Southern Music Pioneers Come To 'The Lawn' Thursday Night By Charlie Shelton • Aug 12, 2015 Tim Duffy / Music Maker Relief Foundation American music can be traced back to the blues, jazz, and many more roots music. The legacy of these roots comes alive this Thursday, June 13, with a roundup of Southern roots musicians from the Music Maker Relief Foundation. Remembering Captain Luke, A Local Blues Legend By Charlie Shelton • May 12, 2015 MusicMakers Relief Foundation Captain Luke, legendary blues musician, died early Tuesday morning at the Wake Forest Baptist Medical Center. He was 87. Captain Luke, otherwise known as Luther Mayer, helped start the Music Maker Relief Foundation with Tim Duffy in the 1990s. The organization works with struggling roots and blues musicians to help preserve their music.

iLounger Bob K. has informed us that EverythingiPod.com is taking pre-orders for its new all-in-one FM transmitter, charger and dash mounted solution for iPod.
"This is the product that iPod owners have been asking for! The iPod is a must-have in the car, but the current iPod car solutions create a mess of wires and leave the iPod on the seat, the dash or in a cup holder. Now you don't have to sweat the clutter. iPod sits right where you can access it, charges and plays through your car stereo via the best FM transmitter around!"

Target and Dell Propel Apple Stock
MacObserver reports that news of Target and Dell selling iPods has propelled Apple's stock to a new 9-week high.
"The dual news helped kick Apple's stock to a new 9-week high, with AAPL closing at 15.98, up .54 (+3.50%) in moderate volume. Intra-day trading saw Apple soar to 16.37, a US$.93 gain, only to have profit taking reclaim 39 cents of those gains in the last 45 minutes of trading. Dell's stock closed higher at 29.06, a gain of 0.40 (+1.40%)."
"Mac iPod to be a hard find at Target"
ThinkSecret is reporting that not all Target stores will be carrying iPod for Mac.
"A spot check of 23 Target stores from coast-to-coast confirms this. All 23 stores contacted had Windows iPods ready to sell, but only three had Mac versions of the product or even showed them on order. Of those three stores, all had less than five Mac iPod units on order or in stock. 'We were never told we'd be getting the Mac version,' a Target manager in Kansas City, MO said. 'I show none on order or in stock. I have plenty of the Windows units (28) ready for display.'"

Apple Announces iPods at Target Stores
Apple has officially announced the availability of iPods at all Target stores in a press release.
"'We're thrilled that Target will significantly expand the availability of Apple's award-winning iPod to even more customers,' said Tim Cook, Apple's executive vice president of Worldwide Sales and Operations. 'Apple has placed an operable iPod on display in each of Target's 1,148 stores, so every Target customer can use and listen to an iPod before they buy.'"
"Dell selling Apple's iPods"
News.com reports that Dell will soon be selling the iPod for Windows through its online store.
"'Yep, Dell is reselling iPods,' Apple said in a statement provided to CNET News.com. 'We are delighted to offer our 5GB, 10GB and 20GB iPods for Windows through Dell's direct retail channel. iPod has been a big success to date, and we would like to make it even bigger.'"
"Poll: iPod 'too expensive'
Macworld UK recently conducted a poll which asked, "Do you desire or own an iPod?"
"A slim majority of 27 per cent felt it was overpriced, while 26 per cent said they were " not interested".
The remaining 47 per cent of votes of the 1,316 polled were divided into the 19 per cent who expressed an interest in buying one and the 28 per cent who already own one. Of these owners, 16 per cent own the 5GB version, seven per cent have bought the 10GB model, while 5 per cent forked-out for the 20GB iPod."

Clay Buchholz to miss start; Alfredo Aceves gets the call
|05.26.13 at 6:26 pm ET
Clay Buchholz will miss his scheduled start Monday due to irritation in his right AC joint on top of his right shoulder. Alfredo Aceves will take the place of Buchholz, who still may make a start later in the week.
Buchholz explained that he believed the cause of the issue stemmed from sleeping awkwardly upon returning home from the Red Sox' recent road trip.
'Trip that night, woke up the next morning and woke up laying on my right side which I usually don't, I usually sleep on my back,' he said. 'I had the little daughter in bed with us, so. Woke up didn't feel quite right, came over here and threw and played catch and everything and it was alright. The more I threw the less I felt it.
'Being as early in the season as it is I want to make sure I'm 100 percent every time I go out there rather than 80-85 percent, risk having this be something that's going to linger. I just want to cut it right now and hopefully a couple more days, two three days I'll be back where I was at.'
Buchholz did throw his regularly scheduled bullpen Saturday, experiencing some discomfort. The righty said missing the start against the Phillies was his decision.
'It's nothing, I mean it doesn't make me alter my delivery at all,' Buchholz said. 'It's just something that's there, and doctors have all said that I can go out and throw. I'm not going to hurt anything. Just that joint, where it's at, it has a little bit of cartilage. Irritated the cartilage by sort of laying on it.
'I want to be out there every day. I don't think I would be doing the team justice if I'm not 100 percent.'
Aceves had made four starts with Triple-A Pawtucket before being called up to the Red Sox Friday. He started three games with the Sox, totaling an 8.10 ERA over 13 1/3 innings.

5 Of The Strangest Things People Have Traded for Sex
1. McDonalds Chicken McNuggetsThe Golden Arches regularly touts its nuggets, made from 100% breast meat. That may be one reason Khadijah Baseer, 31, allegedly staked out a McDonalds parking lot in Burbank, Calif., to offer sex acts in exchange for McNuggets. But when customers refused to bite at her offer, police arrived and arrested her.
2. McDonalds Double CheeseburgersThe Cheeseburglar would be shaking his head at this one: Christine Baker, 47, allegedly agreed to have sex with an undercover Florida cop in exchange for two double cheeseburgers off the McDonalds dollar menu. The cop bought the burgers, but Baker allegedly also asked for a tip in cash. She mustve grimaced when police busted her for prostitution.
3. Phillies ticketsA Pennsylvania woman allegedly tried to score tickets to a Phillies-Yankees World Series game in 2009 in exchange for sex with a man who turned out to be an undercover cop. Courts eventually cleared Susan Finkelstein, 45, of all prostitution charges. But not before her strange sex-for-tickets trade scheme got her fired from her job.
4. MethamphetamineA former Sheriff of the Year in Colorado was busted for allegedly trying to trade methamphetamine for sex. Ex-Sheriff Patrick J. Sullivan, 68, was caught on tape trying to make the deal happen, and was also charged with manufacturing and selling the drug. He was booked, ironically, into a jail that bears his name.
5. JusticePennsylvania Judge Ross Cioppa, 70, was accused of demanding sexual favors from female defendants in exchange for favorable outcomes in court. Cioppa allegedly tried this twice, in two separate cases, before being charged with bribery, indecent assault, and official oppression definitely one of the stranger things weve seen allegedly being traded for sex.

"Thirty-five to 40 is really the golden age for women."
Barbarella Fokos 10:15 a.m., June 29
Hmm, it appears that the San Diego City officials are treating the bridges on Market Street like the rest of the USA...the bridges are being ignored, neglected, being allowed to rust and be overrun with graffiti. Is the city banking on a miracle…more federal money, a private donor? The bridge is in danger. Does the city truly understand that the city's neglected and ignored bridges are an accident waiting to happen? The city will cry that there is no $$. But there sure gave downtown developers a big tax break and other favors. I wonder if the city simply wants to gamble with the lives of the working class in Grant Hill and those who drive on Market Street daily in that it would rather pay a wrongful death lawsuit instead of paying for the costs to repair or rather replace the bridges. When walking on the south side of the bridge how many exposed metal bars can you count? How many cracks?
The city needs to ask the folks that survived the I-35 when they crossed the Mississippi River while heading to Minneapolis on August 1, 2007.
All bridges in the USA have been ignored and neglected!! What is the plan to repair them? There is none.
What is the City of San Diego plan to correct the sagging bridges? Let the next administration figure it out. It is the political way.

Rep. Hartzler Says Government Shouldn't Accommodate "Fringe Religions" Because "Christianity is the Main Religion"
Back in November, Family Research Council president Tony Perkins charged that the Obama administration "has been the most hostile toward religious freedom" and particularly "hostile toward Christianity." However, apparently the freedom of religion for non-Christians is not important for Perkins, who today was joined by Rep. Vicky Hartzler (R-MO) on Washington Watch Weekly where they condemned the Air Force Academy for allowing self-identified pagans to build and pray at an outdoor worship grounds. As Air Force Chaplain Maj. Darren Duncan told the Los Angeles Times, "We're here to accommodate all religions, period," noting that Muslim, Buddhist and Hindu cadets also have worship spaces on campus.
The Air Force Academy spent $3.5 million to build the Cadet Chapel, but Perkins and Hartzler were outraged that the Academy spent $80,000 on the pagan worship center. Perkins said that it shows government "promotion" of "fringe religions" and Hartzler called the move "crazy." Hartzler went on to say that "Christianity is the main religion in our country" and the government should not be "facilitating or accommodating fringe religions."
While Perkins and Hartzler say they speak for the freedoms of people of faith, they clearly lack any respect for the freedoms of Americans, even service members, of minority religions:
Perkins: Do you see this as a part of a growing trend that we see that there is really kind of a marginalization of Christianity and almost a promotion of other forms of, I would have to say, fringe religions?
Hartzler: I agree, I think so. Christianity is the main religion in our country and as a policy for the Department of Defense we need to defend the practice of religion but we do not have to obligate taxpayer funds to facilitate or accommodate it or pay for it.
Perkins: Is it the government's role to try to put all religions on the same plane?
Hartzler: No, it's not their role at all. Their role is to facilitate basic policy for our country and to not to try to lift up one religion over the other, they should be defending the basic rights that we have, that freedom of religion here, and certainly not facilitating or accommodating fringe religions, it's crazy.

Demand rises for inner-city apartments
Relevant offers
The Housing market boom is flowing into Auckland's apartment market where prices are rising and good quality apartments are often sold without being listed for sale on the open market.
One of the features of the apartment market at the moment is the number of people looking to buy apartments to live in rather than rent out as investments.
This was evident at an auction of seven inner- city apartments held by apartment specialists City Sales last week, where several of the apartments were suitable for owner- occupiers.
Typically, smaller apartments, often referred to as shoeboxes, are sold as rental investments while owner-occupiers look for larger apartments, usually 50 square metres or more.
And people wanting to live in an apartment usually want a car park to go with it as well, according to City Sales sales manager Mike Richards, although he said that occasionally someone would buy one of the smaller units to live in.
One of the most popular apartments put under the hammer at last week's auction was a two- bedroom unit in the Connaught complex, near the Pullman Hotel and across the road from Auckland University.
The 72sqm apartment had a good-sized balcony and car park and had views across the harbour on one side, while the balcony looked back across Albert Park to the city. The building also had facilities such as a heated pool and a gymnasium for residents.
It was originally purchased in 2002 for $426,000, sold for $375,000 in 2008, then again for $439,000 in 2009 and sold last week for $490,000.
The sale was handled by City Sales agent Gabrielle Hoffmann, who said she had noticed a steady increase in the number of people looking to buy apartments for themselves to live in, over the last two years.
Mostly they fell into two main groups. There were empty nesters - older couples whose children have left home, and who no longer want the maintenance of a house and garden and are looking for something they can "lock and leave" when they go travelling.
Or they are younger couples who want to live close to the CBD but can't afford to buy a house in one of the inner-city suburbs, so go for an apartment instead.
For the same amount of money as the Connaught apartment sold for, someone wanting a house may have to look at buying a property in a suburb such as Glenfield on Auckland's North Shore, where the median selling price last month was $495,000.
However, Hoffman said most of the buyers she dealt with did not want to have to commute into the city to work.
Most were looking for apartments in older character buildings or in high-quality newer buildings where most of the people living in them were also owner-occupiers, she said.
And although there were thousands of apartments in Auckland's CBD, very few fitted owner-occupiers' requirements.
Most of the apartments built over the last 20 years were smaller units designed as student accommodation, Hoffmann said. The shortage of supply was pushing up the prices of the better units.
Demand was so strong that apartments in good quality buildings such as the Connaught were often selling before they were advertised for sale, Hoffmann said.
Once somebody decided to sell their apartment, word would get around the building pretty quickly and other residents often knew people who wanted to buy into the same building, so they would put them in touch with the vendor with a view to negotiating a private sale.
Another apartment sold to owner-occupiers at last week's auction was a 60sqm one- bedroom apartment in the Heritage Towers block behind the Heritage Hotel. This had a balcony and a car park and the building had facilities such as a pool and gym.
The apartment was purchased for $290,000 at the beginning of the year, but sold last week for $323,000.
While people wanting an apartment to live in may face a limited choice, the smaller units are still a happy hunting ground for investors.
One of the smaller apartments to go under the hammer at last week's auction was a 30sqm unit in a building on Scotia Place, a cul-de-sac that runs between the top end of Queen St and Myers Park.
Although small, the unit had a small balcony and pleasant outlook over the park and a sitting tenant paying $320 a week.
It was originally purchased for $94,500 in 1998, sold for $115,000 in 2001 and then for $132,500 in 2005 and last week fetched $173,000.
Although that is a good gain in value over the years, it still provided its new owners with a gross return (before tax and expenses) of 9.6 per cent and City Sales estimated that would come back to about 7.5 per cent once expenses such as rates and body corporate fees were deducted.
