Huge!!! JK is a key piece of the puzzle.Hide replies
A key piece?? LOL, please explain.
Read the freaking article ...
Kuhn and Peppers, part II. This time, they both end up with a Superbowl ring.Hide replies
I like it!
Yes that would make for a pretty picture in the end zone with those two and with a flash back clip on the screen of "the block".
Doubt all that millions is guaranteed. He may not even be on the active roster next years if TT grabs another TE in the draft, maybe he uses 4 TE/0 FB. Safety signing just in case that falls through. Id like to see them grab O Daniels for a similar deal, also for insurance before the draft.Hide replies
At slightly more than $1 million, it means his deal isn't for much more than the veteran's minimum for his tenure. So you're right. If he makes the team, he's earned. If not, no major damage to the cap.
Rumor has it that they will move him to safety. Questionable coverage skills but a hitter.Hide replies
Rumor has it (OK, my source is my brother, a Packers fan now living in Colorado) that Kuhn will be the next coming of Jermichael Finley!
So does this likely mean that Franklin or Harris will be released? Barring an injury to a back in camp.Hide replies
i don't think so, brewer. they carried them all last year.
True, but one was on IR, allowing them to carry them all.
This is the type of contract that guarantees nothing, IMO.
If they feel the other backs are ready, and a blocking TE emerges, he may still be gone.
Should be an interesting camp.
Bottom line: Kuhn will have a tough time making the team, we know how the NFL treat workhorse RBs after turning 30 yrs of age...
Kuhn may be on this team for another three years...
i think that 1 being on the IR is why they will carry all of them this year.
they go down quick.
kuhn is a different role than the other 4. i wouldn't imagine it's him or them.
at 30, kuhn probably has lost a step.
PB, I don't know if he had one to lose. It is his bulk, intelligence, hands, and willingness to do the dirty work that makes him valuable, even at slower speeds.
you're usually quicker than that, old.
PB, I must be getting old. :-)
Best news yet.
Best news yet.
Since this is a blog, and people can lauch outragious discussions, how about this one??
If Kuhn were a ____________, fans would have been screaming for his release 2-years ago. Discuss!!
1. A "walker"/zombie...
2. A pudgy child with incredible athletic ability for his size/age and ran a 5.7 40...
3. A Treasure Island checkout "person" with nimble hands...
4. A tough, Irish, Grandmother who gives out $2 bills for birthdays, even when you're 17...
5. Follower of Kim-Jong Un, with the new haircut and all...
TROLLING CAN BE FUN!Hide replies
I love those 2 dollar bills. I always got so excited to receive them.
I once gave a two-dollar bill to a young store clerk, who looked at me suspiciously and refused to accept it: "There's no such thing as a two-dollar bill."
Haha...as the yrs go on, and those folks pass on, you really do appreciate those people in your life. I still have one person that sends me a bday card every yr...can't wait for it every yr!
I remember Treasure Isand! Had a ripply roof and all. That brings back memories......how about Arlans?
If John Kuhn was a follower of Kim-Jong Un, with the new haircut and all, the Pack would not care what the fans said – they would keep him around to provide comic relief. If Kuhn did look like Kim-Jong Un, he would sure be funny in that soup ad with Clay Matthews!
I vote "6. Etc."
NC, You suck at being a troll, boots under any name has you beat by a country mile. Stick with what you do best, intelligent discussion with a little troll control mixed in.
Surprised a bit by this...but I was surprised he made the roster last year. I feel like this means no Owen Daniels (for anyone thinking that might happen)...not for financial reasons, but just roster spot. Don't know why they would have signed Kuhn if they don't expect him to be on the opening game roster (if they didn't, I suspect they'd have shown him the respect of letting him sign somewhere else that he was fairly certain to stick).
Interesting in the context of Pat Kirwan's piece at cbsports.com about the resurgence of running attacks in the league, including the resurgence of the fullback position.Hide replies
The guys on Sirius NFL seem to think Daniels may not have passed his physical yet (Pat Kirwan).
Haha...I was writing this before reading your 2nd sentence! I'll have to check out the article.
Who is the first person to greet Randall Cobb in the end zone?
Larry McC cracks me up...YESSSSSSSSSS!

Issue with the key trunk release button
I just bought my legacy 2 weeks ago and im having an issue with the trunk relase button on my key. it worked once or twice and sine then it stopped working. the lock/unlock buttons work fine. could this just need a new battery or what?
Make sure you don't have the trunk cancel switch in the glove box on. The remote only has 1 battery. If it was dead nothing would work. Do the lights flash and car chime?
everything on my key works fine but the trunk button .yeah it was a long shot thinking that the battery was dying but i had to try it ill go look in my glove box
the button in the glove box was in cancel mode...thanks now it wors just fine
No problem. Enjoy the new car.

afraid it may not have been the genuine article, but it obviously is. fantastic sent. lasts all day
Very happy with the service. Ordered goods on Friday evening and received them on Monday.
My perfume left in garage as requested.i have had products from you before that the courier said did not require a signature, and then you sent me emails with my signature on! Which I did like or understand that you would let someone do this. This time I was not in so it couldn't happen the actual perfume is exactly what I ordered.
Just what I wanted
Apart from the fact that when delivered, I was not asked for my signature, then you sent me an e.mail asking me if the signature infront of me was mine and it was not! very strange!
Beautiful scent and very long lasting

Aggie football has first practice in Boise for Famous Idaho Potato Bowl
Eugene Tanner, Associated Press
Utah State football had its first practice in Boise Wednesday, in preparation for the Famous Idaho Potato Bowl on Saturday.
USU went through a two-hour practice at Boise State's Caven Williams Indoor Facility in preparation for Saturday's bowl match-up with Ohio.
"It felt great; we came out here ready to work. Coach Andersen gave us a great speech, so we are determined to get this win," sophomore defensive end Connor Williams said.
The Caven Williams Facility is similar to Utah State's Laub Indoor Facility, both in size and with field turf.
"No, not at all," Williams said when asked about the differences in facilities. "It is just another work week. We just have to get the job done, and after that we soak everything in. It has been great. Coach Andersen has taken really good care of us. He is making sure that we get the best experience possible. It is awesome."
All the preparations this week are for Saturday's game against the Ohio Bobcats, who bring a 9-4 record into the game, making their third-straight bowl appearance.
"They are a tough team. There are a lot of hard-working guys on that team. They are going to come out with their best, and we are going to come out with our best. It is going to be a great game," Williams said.
Ohio is led by quarterback Tyler Tettleton, who set 12 single-season records for the Bobcats, accounting for 35 touchdowns (26 passing, nine rushing) and 3,709 yards of total offense.
"He is a very shifty guy. We are going to have to eliminate him as soon as possible," Williams said, who has seen more and more playing time of late.
"I am just trying to soak in all the coaching that I am getting from Coach Frank (defensive line coach Frank Maile), Coach Andersen and Coach Danny (defensive administrative assistant Danny Gurrola), so every day I am just trying to get better. I see results," Williams said.
Williams and the Aggies are making their first appearance at a bowl game since 1997.
"It is great for this program that has waited for years to be in this environment. During the year, it is so structured — 1:35 in the building; 1:45 special teams. It is a machine; it just rolls. This is very different. Today we practice in the morning; tomorrow we come back and practice in the afternoon, so it forces them to grow and mature as a group," USU head coach Gary Andersen said.
After practice, the Aggies had lunch and then went to Fast Lane Indoor Kart Racing for an afternoon of fun. Redshirt freshman long snapper Nate Needham clocked a 24.109 lap in heat four, which stood as the fastest time for seven laps until redshirting quarterback Tanner Curtis logged a 23.912 lap in heat 11. Curtis' time was short-lived atop the leaderboard as one heat later, redshirting wide receiver Rashard Stewart clocked the fastest lap of the day with a 23.894.
"It is a fun event for us. We are all having fun out here. I have never been on go-karts that go this fast at 45 mph. Everyone is having fun racing against each other. The competition is a great thing," said junior wide receiver Matt Austin.
The go-karts gave players and support staff the chance to race against each other, with 10 karts in each heat.
"Right now it is (equipment manager Mike Bair)," Austin said when asked who his favorite racer was to watch Wednesday. "I went against Mike Bair, so that was fun. It was random, he just walked out right before we were about to race. He rammed me a couple times; so that was fun."
Wednesday's activity was just one of many during bowl week, giving the players the opportunity to get away from football and have some team-bonding time.

Richmond, Ind., March 7, 1903.
To the Editor:
—My attention has been called to a paper read by Professor Loeb of the University of Chicago early in January, 1902. My reason for addressing you is this, viz.: to direct attention to work done, experiments made by myself, and conclusions reached, which will anticipate by priority his deductions and conclusions, as I understand them in his paper. I desire to mention my papers which have been read and published as early as 1873, 1875 and 1879, and papers since those dates which were published in the Chicago Review and are along the line recently indicated by Professor Loeb as "recent progress." I noticed the same, and desire to make my claim good, since 1873, in papers read and published. If, as he claims, the views are recent progress, I have anticipated him more than twenty years, as I was then teaching

Hi everyone
we will be arriving in Rincon on May 23rd for 3 nights. This is a 'hunt and see' trip - possibly for retirement.
We would love to run into some expats and talk with them about the area. Is there a particular place they go to for a drink or dinner? Someplace where they might hang out so we could 'accidentally' run into them??
thanks in advance

"Charlotte Amalie, St Thomas" Top 5 Page for this destination Saint Thomas by jumpingnorman
Saint Thomas Travel Guide: 53 reviews and 67 photos
She was only less than two years old when I took this shot from the highest point (1500 ft) on St. Thomas in the US Virgin Islands. I don't even remember what she was looking at - maybe she's sleepy, tired? But it turned out to be a great picture anyway!
Charlotte Amalie, the capital city of this island, certainly has one of the most beautiful harbours in the whole world! A lof of people here (like my wife) seem to enjoy shopping in the duty-free shops...many of them coming from the cruise ships that dock here so often. Instead of cruising, we chose to sleep for a few days on the best resort on the island.
The views at the hotel-resort were awesome, and my son was looking for iguanas by the seaside garden in this picture (we were heading for the tennis courts).
I made a short video of our first trip to the Caribbean!
Hope you like this:
Maybe we'll be riding cruise ships more in the future, but for now (as of 2008) we still enjoy just taking a normal plane ride and then just setting out on our own schedule in unfamiliar territory. The twins seem to be wanting to go out to sea in this picture, or I think they are just acting like they're depressed or something (shrugging their shoulders down or up and looking down). Must have been something they saw on TV or from me?

Hi Norman, what lovely twins you have, love the pic of your daughter deep in thought. Nice tips and photo's ;-)
Hi, Norman! It's certainly a great place to enjoy, but a bit too far away! Thanks for your nice presentation, as always!
One of my favorite photo's of one of your little ones. She looks deep in thought. Nice page!
Sounds like your family had a great trip to St. Thomas. Great transportation tip to St. John. Your children are so cute!
What a beautiful shot of your jumping daughter!
No pirates in sight. Wonder how different the fishes and corals of the Caribbean are from SE Asian counterparts.
You certainly make it sound worth a visit! gorgeous photo of your daughter.
Coral World Marine Park and Sky Ride sound interesting to visit. Saint Thomas is a great tourist destination. Thanks for sharing. ~ho & pang
The shopping spree at St. Thomas sounds good to me. Though I am not a shopper myself, but I guess I will not be able to resist the great deals you are saying.
Good page Norm! I suspect that your kids will see the whole world before they are 10!Lucky twins. What about some pics here?

Times Examines Cuomo's Record on Gay Rights
"Some doubt" the strength of his support for LGBT issues.
In a lengthy analysis, Times reporter Michael Barbaro today runs through leading gubernatorial candidate Andrew Cuomo's track record on gay rights, and finds some places where his fervor on the issue wasn't as, well, consistent as he says it is now. This has some advocates worried about whether he'll come through on promises he's made to gay leaders, like prioritizing the passage of a same-sex-marriage bill. Here are some of the instances Barbaro dredges up where Cuomo appeared favorable toward gays and gay issues:
• He seeks out gay leaders for counsel, like City Council speaker Christine Quinn.
• He has gay friends.
• While he worked at the Department of Housing and Urban Development, it doubled the amount of money it devoted to housing for those with HIV/AIDS and his staff urged gay organizations to apply for grants to open community centers.
• He is dating drag icon Sandra Lee. (Okay, we just stuck that one in there on our own.)
On the other hand, Barbaro lines up several instances where Cuomo's devotion to gay issues seems to have flagged, or at least taken the back burner:
• During last year's contentious battle in the State Senate over the failed gay-marriage bill, while Governor Paterson, Kirsten Gillibrand, Christine Quinn, and even Chuck Schumer lobbied on behalf of the bill, Cuomo was virtually silent, not even bothering to get three wavering state senators on the phone when asked to do so by gay groups. The future governor's push on the issue could have been a critical factor: None of the three voted for the bill.
• His first political campaign was his father's primary race against Ed Koch, during which Mario Cuomo's supporters put up signs in Brooklyn and Queens that said, "Vote for Cuomo, Not the Homo." (The younger Cuomo has said he had nothing to do with the signs. Koch says he's not so sure.)
• During his father's gubernatorial election, he liaised with gay groups privately but publicly worked to downplay their connection to the campaign.
• When his father signed an executive order barring discrimination against state workers on grounds of sexual orientation, he also worked to publicly downplay that.
• When he ran Walter Mondale's New York operation during his failed presidential bid, Cuomo viewed local dismay over Mondale's shifting position on gays in the military as a "nuisance."
• And anyway, he "did not publicly support [gay marriage] until he ran for attorney general in 2006 — eight years after Eliot Spitzer said he favored it and 12 years after Mr. Paterson did so."
Of course, many of those instances are from years, and even decades, ago. Say what you will about Cuomo: He's highly attuned and responsive to political tides and influences. Since his first campaign experience with his dad, gay groups have become far more politically (and financially) powerful in the state. That, more than anything, should inform anyone's guess about Cuomo's gay agenda after the election.

Kerry Townley-Smith — Mathematics and Music
As a long time Journey School parent and educator, Mrs. Kerry Townley-Smith can't wait to return to Journey School in her new capacity of Math, ELA and Music Specialist. Mrs. T-S's own children have been part of the school community for many years, and she has grown with the school from volunteer to Specialty Teacher to Main Class Teacher and again to Specialty teacher.
Mrs. T. S. graduated with high honors in English from the University of Saskatchewan with both her undergraduate and masters degree and also possesses a California State Teaching Credential. As a life-long learner interested in making connections, Mrs. T-S especially enjoys teaching mathematics, music, English, and history in integrated and inspiring ways. As she looks ahead, Mrs. T-S reflects:
"I look forward to working in partnership with parents and fellow teachers to provide extra support and enrichment opportunities for the students. I am particularly passionate about providing my students with a well-rounded education that they can really dig into and be excited about. It is important to me that each one my students is well-prepared for high school and set up for life-long success."
Janet Gates — Mathematics
"I am excited to be a part of the Journey team! I have been teaching different levels of math for over 20 years. I also worked as an Electrical Engineer before starting a family. Math and science are my favorite subjects and I love to see the delight on a student's face when a new concept is understood. I enjoy showing my students examples of math in action in our every day lives and also in our world. I have been married for over 25 years and have four wonderful children who are are all attending various California universities."
Richard Martin — Science and Woodworking
Mr. Martin is a certified Waldorf teacher with a California clear credential and over 18 years of classroom teaching experience. He first taught at the Waldorf School of Orange County, where he took a class from third grade through eighth. Since joining the Journey School faculty in 2005, he has focused on middle school, first as a class teacher, and more recently specializing in science and woodworking.
Mr. Martin has a keen appreciation for the Journey School curriculum, and relishes the challenge of bringing education to life in the classroom. He feels privileged to work with the talented and dedicated Journey School faculty and staff, and cherishes the opportunity to participate in Journey's vibrant school community.
Diana Corbo – Journey Music Coordinator & Music Teacher
"Music isn't just learning notes and playing them. You learn notes to play to the music of your soul." ~K. Greenwood
Ms. Corbo is a co-founder of Journey School and we're thrilled she is returning as Music Instructor for a 5th straight year in 2014-15. Ms. Corbo has a great deal of fun sharing her music, rhythm and performance skills with Journey students and works towards encouraging each child to unfold their own unique relationship with music and creative arts. She loves Journey's dedication to weaving a myriad of arts into the curriculum and is continually inspired by the compassionate, deeply dedicated teachers and staff she works with.
Ms. Corbo and her husband Michael have three Journey educated children. As a founding parent of Journey School, Diana fondly remembers sharing music with the very first class of Journey school – now college age! Ten years later, while exhaling after completing USM's masters program in Spiritual Psychology, she was called (literally & figuratively!) to share her joy of music with Journey once again.
Ms. Corbo has 30 years of experience in the Performing Arts, in many genres of music. She received numerous awards during her years on stage, from her town in New England to San Francisco – culminating in her solo act at York Hotel's prestigious Plush Room Cabaret. Over the years she garnered many favorable reviews, including two in the San Francisco Chronicle before her move to Orange County, but adds that none of these experiences compare to her delight in guiding Journey students into the fullness of their own musical talents.
Ms. Corbo serves on the Board of the Southwest Community Center, a homeless, low income assistance Center in Santa Ana, learning a lot about Fundraising, and the power of compassionate community along the way. She sings (& waltzes!) monthly with the Seniors at Mt. of Olives Adult Daycare and in her spare time(?) Diana can be found walking on the beach, belly dancing (Raks Sharqi) and playing her doumbek (not all at the same time of course.)
Ms. Corbo feels blessed to be a part of this school's journey, seeing firsthand how the loving intentions from which it was conceived are now blossoming, infused with the wisdom, strength and stability that years of dedicated teachers, parents and staff – both present and past, bring.
Billy Alexander – Guitar Teacher
Billy Alexander is returning to Journey to teach Guitar for the 5th straight year. Mr. Alexander is an award-winning musician and producer. He plays lead guitar, sings, plays piano and organ, and is an up and coming Pop/Rock/Country songwriter.
Mr. Alexander began his music career at age 10 when he started taking guitar lessons. At 15, he studied classical guitar and music theory, and within a year he was playing professionally and teaching guitar out of a local music store. Mr. Alexander's passion for music led him to take music theory classes in high school and college while continuing to perform, tour and teach at the professional level.
After years of performing and touring on the east coast, Mr. Alexander made the move to L.A. playing and recording around town with some great musicians and bands including The May Kings. Soon he met up with fellow east coasters Scot Sax (songwriter, Faith Hill, Tim McGraw, Joey McIntyre) and Mark Getten (RCA's Wanderlust) to form FEEL. FEEL landed a record deal with Nashville's Curb Records in late 2002 and spawned two radio hits "Won't Stand In Your Way" going to #18 on national radio charts and "Got Your Name On It" reaching #28 on Billboard Charts.
Mr. Alexander continues to tour and record for other artists including a brief live stint with Sony/Columbia recording artist Anna Nalick and playing lead guitar/vocals for John Waite (The Babys, Bad English, Alison Krauss). In addition to lending his exceptional skills as a lead guitarist, he is establishing himself as a world class songwriter in the world of Pop and Contemporary Country music, earning one of Songwriter Universe Magazine's Top 5 best songs of the month September 2006 and having songs cut in Nashville and around the country. Mr. Alexander currently lives in Lake Forest with his wife Doreen and their little Boston Terrier "Pepper". He enjoys the warmth and smiling faces of the children at Journey and the positive attitudes of all the staff and teachers at the school.

Highlights include playing strolling violin in the New York Rainbow Room hours after a huge snowstorm, inventing and playing tangos with an international group of young teachers in rural Virginia, traveling with an orchestra through the cities of Mozart's lifetime and playing in the oldest Cathedral in Vienna. Ms. Poth enjoys the individuality of her students and loves to learn of their successes both musically and personally.
Ms. Poth's extended family includes 2 sons, their wives and three grandchildren. "Grandma days" are a priority. She is also an active member of her church where she directs a small string orchestra. As a member of the South Coast Symphony, Jan was able to arrange a field trip for the fourth grade class to hear their "Koncert for Kids". Born in LA and educated in Fullerton (FUHS '64, CSUF English/Music '68), Jan is settling into her "last" home and enjoying her busy life. She continues to learn from her peers, her mentors, and her students and looks forward to the growth of the string program at Journey School.

"I love teaching Spanish at Journey because the administrative team, Shaheer and Gavin, are always attentive to the needs of the teachers as well as of the students. I have received nothing but tremendous support all year from both of them. Another reason is the excellent relationship I have with my colleagues. And last but not least, I have to say that the students are a reflection of their class teacher and every class I have with them I am gifted with their respect and moments of joy in watching how they achieve a higher level of learning."

Waldorf education in the public sphere is crucial to her and thus she is the Administrator for the Hybrid teacher training at Rudolf Steiner College and is also a faculty member of Gradalis, a Waldorf teacher training & consulting institute.
Her love of travel led her as a flight attendant for eight years until she married "my darling husband" and put down roots. "Once my eldest was born I began to search for a better system and philosophy for the education of my children; and so began my study of Anthroposophy and Waldorf."
As a relationship based education Waldorf allows children to develop in freedom to their full potential by teaching with an awareness of
those to be taught, creatively offering the rigors of academics needed, fostering reverence for life, enlivening spirit, and
nurturing a love of learning. It is to become fully awake, aware and alive. It was this that led me to Journey 10 years ago and over those years has defined my service in many school capacities.

facilitator offering Head, Heart and Hands program & workshops. She is a past Parent Cabinet Chair and is currently on the Parent Cabinet Executive Board and serves on the Pedagogical Council.
Gaylen Solomon Corbett
Visual Arts, Grades 6-8
Gaylen's passion for art came at an early age. Born into an artistic family, her childhood was spent in her father's art studio, with an unlimited supply of paint, brushes and paper. She was inspired by the local artists that traveled in and out of the studio, and learned many skills by watching them paint. Summers were spent on the grounds of the Festival of Arts or camping the woods with her grandparents. These childhood experiences continue to influence Gaylen's work as both a teacher and an artist. Gaylen went on to study art throughout college, and continues to learn through workshops offered by local artists. She is currently a member of the Laguna Plein Air Painters Association.
It is a joy and honor for Gaylen to put these experiences to work in creating a rich art curriculum for Journey's middle school students.
When Gaylen is not teaching art to the middle school grades, she works as a Kindergarten Assistant. She is also is the proud parent of a Journey School graduate who is now attending Dana Hills High School. Her daughter, Hailey, is currently a 7th grader at Journey.
Todd Skidmore – Ukulele Teacher
Todd Skidmore his going into his 5th year teaching ukulele at Journey School. Hodd grew up singing and playing guitar with his father and brothers. "My father taught me more than anyone else in terms of how to play an instrument. Fortunately music theory is pretty much universal from instrument to instrument," he says. His musical talents also include ukele, bass guitar, and drums, as well as some piano, accordion, harmonica, trumpet, mandolin and banjo. During his childhood he studied the basics of music, harmony, musicianship, keyboard, music composition, music history and music theory.
With a degree in Education, he teaches privately in addition to his lessons at Journey, and also performs on a regular basis.
"What i enjoy the most every year is how pleasantly surprised i am with how the students take to the ukulele. I am honored to introduce the students to the instrument and set them out on their musical journey. I've always said that all I can do is help and point them in a direction because music is a personal journey. I have heard many times how uncharacteristically enthusiastic some kids are and i really enjoy planting that seed and watching them learn to play songs they enjoy and have a great time and feel good about themselves because it is a skill they will have forever."
Storm Dye – Games
After years of searching for a job to feel proud and passionate about, Storm happened upon Journey. Becoming a Specialty Teacher in games has allowed him to grow and learn, and the amazing opportunity to impact young minds in a positive way. With a background in multiple sports, over six years in dance and movement, and an unmatched passion for cooperative play, Waldorf style education is second nature to him. Aside from this, he has a combined total of just under eleven years of working with children of all ages to draw inspiration from. This came in the form of afterschool care, Tutoring, Babysitting, and training others, but mostly gathering kids from all walks of life and playing outdoor games in his free time.
"Since he was 14, Storm came up with and organized games for all the kids in the neighborhood. I remember looking outside and seeing him successfully keeping the peace and facilitating a game with over 25 children, with ages anywhere from six to sixteen. He's always had a passion for playing, and I completely believe it translates into his teaching." -Tammy Dye, Storm's mom
As for life outside of Journey, Mr. Storm is currently finishing up a degree in Psychology at California State University, Fullerton, with an emphasis in child development, and hopes to solidify a teaching credential and more. He also professes to being a child-at-heart and a nerd, but argues that these qualities are exactly what gives him his abilities in class.
Storm is fluent in Spanish and can tutor almost anything taught in middle school with success.

Do optimal diversification strategies outperform the 1/N strategy in U.K. stock returns?
This paper examines whether optimal diversification strategies outperform the 1/N strategy in U.K. stock returns. The study focuses on the performance of recent strategies developed by Tu and Zhou (2011) and Kirby and Ostdiek (2010). I find that a number of optimal asset allocation strategies can significantly outperform the 1/N strategy even after adjusting for trading costs. The strategies developed by Kirby and Ostdiek outperform the 1/N strategy, even at higher trading costs, due to the low turnover of these strategies. The strategies of Tu and Zhou have mixed performance after adjusting for trading costs due to the high turnover of these strategies. The results of the paper provide support for the use of optimal diversification strategies.

I have a ~1.5-2mil page views per day site running on 2 servers. One for mysql, other for everything else. Mysql box has a load of 3, frontend is usually 0.0-0.1. Both are dual quad core with 8GB ram running SAS drives in raid5. CPU is idle for majority of the time, iowait is non-existent.
Im running nginx, memcache, and site is built on php. Half the time everything runs perfect, while at other times it lags something severe, when it takes 10-15 seconds for a page to load. Page execution time is always super low, but it seems to hang, waiting for something before it actually loads the page. Whats even more weird is that it only happens to 1 file on the site (but its the one thats most commonly accessed, that actually loads the content on the site). Other pages are super fast at all times, even when it takes 15 seconds to load actual content.
I have nginx_stats plugin installed, and if I monitor it, the lag spikes happen when the write column starts going above 100, and it frequently does... all the way to 500-1000.
It does so at totally random times... not when traffic is heavy... it can do this in the middle of the night, and work perfectly at 5pm when traffic is at its highest.
Any ideas?

So if the main justification for compulsory super is that "people are too stupid to save for themselves," how can we say that a government made up of these same people will be able to determine the "right" level of savings?

It's just, if that is the justification people are using - it seems weird that they would have faith that these same people could magically fix it when given policy hats.
Hi Matt,ReplyDelete
I never took it any other way. Perhaps I should change the heading to make that clear for those who might?

Boudreaux elected to state bowling Hall of Fame
Published: Tuesday, June 22, 2010 at 10:00 a.m.
Last Modified: Tuesday, June 22, 2010 at 10:58 a.m.
Melvin Boudreaux, a lifelong resident of Houma, was recently inducted into the Louisiana Bowling Hall of Fame.
Boudreaux, 68, has been in the local bowling scene for the last 58 years. On June 5 at the Louisiana State Bowling Association meeting in Houma, he was inducted into the Hall of Fame along with Randy LeBlanc of Baton Rouge. Boudreaux started bowling in 1952 at the VFW Bowling Hall on Barrow Street.
Almost six decades later, he was given the state's highest honor.
"I got started bowling just for the love of the sport along with my good friend Avery LeBlanc (who is also a LSBA Hall of Famer)," Boudreaux said. "I had trouble sleeping at all that night because I live and breathe bowling. I had a stroke about 10 years ago that set me back, but I didn't let it hold me down."
Boudreaux was elected to the Bayou Region USBC Hall of Fame in 2002 and is currently a life member of that local association.
He has been a part of eight Louisiana state titles (two singles, five doubles and one team honor) and was a big reason that Houma played host to the state bowling tourney this year. He has also served as president of the Board of Directors for the Houma Bowling Association and the LSBA.
While president of the LSBA, Boudreaux formed a committee of 12 people to help preserve and expand enrollment now open to all men and women in the Louisiana State Bowling Tournaments with more attention to the bowler's needs. As a result, entries are up in this year's tournament compared to past year's events.
Boudreaux has also won Houma singles, doubles and team championships along with having a perfect game of 300 on his resume along with a high series of 777.
Despite enlisting in the Army in 1963, Boudreaux kept his love of bowling alive by organizing a bowling league in Germany.
When he returned home in 1966, he joined the Major League on Monday at Houma Bowl in Gray and was team captain of his squad for 43 years and was also league president for over 10 years.
After the closing of Houma Bowl, he participated in league at Creole Lanes and Bowl South of Louisiana.
Over the years, Boudreaux was also available when friends and relatives asked for bowling tips, even though he has organized almost 50 tournaments over the years in the local, state and national level.
--The 65th Annual Louisiana State Bowling Association is currently being held at Creole Lanes and Bowl South through Sunday.
--The Neaux Fear Float will be putting on a Wacky Scotch Doubles Tournament on July 24 at Bowl South. The cost is $30 per team and starts at 7 p.m. (registration starts at 6:30 p.m.).
--Southern Oaks currently has its weekly four-person scramble on Wednesdays. The cost is $20 per person and the event starts at 5:30 p.m.
--Colonial Acres Golf Club has its weekly two-person scrambles on Tuesdays at 5:30 p.m. The charge is $15 for members and $20 for non-members.
--The Louisiana Golf Association's Junior Amateur Championship will be held at Ellendale Country Club from June 30-July 2. For more information on the tournament, call the LGA at (337) 265-3938.
To submit information to John Price for publication in "From the Lanes to the Links," e-mail it to firstname.lastname@example.com or mail it to P.O. Box 2717, Houma, La 70360.

ALCS: Angels have options with their pitchers
October, 25, 2009
By Jim Caple
6:10 p.m. ET
With two days off since Game 5, Angels manager Mike Scioscia could go with many possible pitchers in relief if necessary tonight. Depending on the score and inning, Jered Weaver, who started Game 3 last Monday and pitched one inning of relief in Game 5 on Thursday, is one possibility. So is John Lackey, who started and pitched 6 2/3 innings Thursday night. Both pitchers are also options to start a possible Game 7.
"There are a lot of options,'' Scioscia said of his relievers. "If it's a situation coming in to clean up an inning, it's more likely to be someone who's in the comfort zone, probably a reliever. As far as starting an inning, sure, we could go with a starter there.''

Hi all,

I have even done and install/uninstall/install, clearing cache, disabling cache. I'm on a mac using firefox and safari. All the same. The site is filmshank.com.

Two local landfills are nearing completion under oversight of the State Environmental and Public Protection Cabinet.
The initial work on the Campbellsville Landfill project has been done and is already seeing dramatic changes.
Some of the work includes relocating waste that was found off site, winter cover placement, constructing a drain to divert spring water away from the landfill and a contaminated water collection and pumping system.
All of the landfill upgrades are aimed at protecting human health and the environment.
Funding for the project is from the Kentucky Pride Program created by the General Assembly in 2002.

I am not a tour bus fan and booked our own day trip from Maui with Adventuremaui.com with first flight in the am and rental car. I was told that everybody had to stay in line and chances for tickets are same for everyone. But a light should have come on when they suggested that I might want to make reservations on a website that is always booked out or not available. Don't get me wrong, the trip was great and the memorial is really touching and awesome even without the trip to the Arizona. But you are better of going with an organized tour from Maui, if you want to visit the USS Arizona memorial. The tours did not wait in line and had their tickets in advance. A park employee told me that the tours have this all booked up and make the reservations months in advance, for a memorial that is supposed to be free. We also talked to people who had just booked the day trip that week and they also got on the Arizona and all the other exhibitions, but they didn't leave Maui until 8.30 am. We had to get up at 4 am to get to our first flight to Honolulu. I would hate to see this happening to a veteran who really needs to visit this!

sooo i'm 22, 29 weeks pregnant today and have no pregnant friends or friends that are moms. i feel kinda pathetice coming on here making a post about this but i really want to meet new moms and share the struggle. lol so if you are interested in making a new friend, this girl is definately open to it!!! =)
pregnant and aloneee
You aren't pathetic! The one and only thing that I have found to be consistent through any of my pregnancies is that friends have a tendancy to avoid you while you're pregnant, unless of course they are pregnant with you which hardly ever happens. It's kind of ridiculous actually but this is my third pregnancy and I think I've finally adjusted. lol!
Jes (35) + Ben (35) = Kaiya (10), Noah (4) & Baby Wyatt 8/23/14
at least it sounds like you HAVE *friends*... try being me! I have ZERO girl friends - PERIOD!
No baby shower for me! lol.
No friends here, other than my DH. Never have had any friends that I've hung out with outside of school or work. I'm 28.
It's why I spend time here. When you have baby, you can always join a mommy group in your area! My sister has lots of mom friends because of various groups she's in.
well it's bitter sweet to know that i'm not the only one. =)=
all of my friends seem to be having babies or trying to have babies but i am the only single mom. the guy was all for it when i told him but i haven't heard from him since i told him. funny how that works lol but very nice to meet you Lisa!!!! =) im Britney

I've recently installed a new cooler in my video card, and i want to see if the memory heatsinks it included, are installed correctly and are doing their job.
I've already tried Riva Tuner, GPU-Z, Expert Tool (my video card manufacturer's program) and none of them has that option.
Is there any program that monitors video card temperatures?

Recent progress in developmental neurobiology and neuroimaging can be drawn together to provide new insight into the links between genetically specified processes of embryonic brain development and adult human brain structure and function. We used magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to show that individuals with aniridia and deficits in executive and social cognition, due to heterozygous mutation of the neurodevelopmental control gene PAX6, have structural abnormalities of grey matter in anterior cingulate cortex, cerebellum and medial temporal lobe, as well as white matter deficits in corpus callosum. Functional MRI demonstrated reduced activation of fronto-striato-thalamic systems during performance of overt verbal fluency and nonsense sentence completion; the most consistent abnormality of verbal executive activation was located in the thalamus. These results provide the first evidence for brain functional differences in humans with PAX6 mutation that are compatible both with anatomical abnormalities in the same subjects and, more circumstantially, with the known roles of murine Pax6 in regional differentiation, axonal guidance and other aspects of early forebrain development. Highly conserved homeobox genes may be critical for normal ontogenesis of large-scale neurocognitive networks supporting phylogenetically advanced mental functions.

I removed the SANE patches (well actually I just hid them).
For some time now, the testtool package contains the 'patch-sane.sh' script, that patches the sane-backend sources. Therefore a separate SANE patch is more or less redundant.
To patch SANE now do the following:
1) Download and unpack the testtool and sane-backends source packages
2) Go to the testtool directory and patch sane-backends:
./patch-sane.sh ~/sane-backend-1.0.7
(substitute the proper sane-backend directory)
3) Go to the sane-backend directory and build sane-backends:
make install
I think it is a good idea to first try the testtool before trying to make SANE work.

I'm looking for a simple plugin because I'd like to manage a blog like a events cms.
This plugin seems to be very powerful but for my use it seems to be very complex.
I'd like to add a month (small ) calendar view in my theme (three columns: content column on the left, left sidebar on the right e right sidebar on the extreme right)
I'd like a small month view of calendar in left (second) column)
and when people click on day in calendar I'd like to see events of that day in content column)
Default view should be event from today to next month in wordpress main loop.
I saw that a similar management should be done with Ec3 plugin but it seems to be unmantained.
Is there a simple way to modify this plugin for my purpose ?

He's brilliant and terribly missed! What a loss to AGH.
I have been a patient of Dr. K's for 5 years with a complicated and rare syndrome and he has been a courageous, think outside the box doctor. I am in Pittsburgh and was lucky to find Dr. Koumpouras before he took his current position at Yale. I now travel to Yale several times a year to see him. Best doctor ever!
This is the absolute best doctor you could ever ask for.
Dr Koumpouras,I really have to say Thank You soo much for yesterdays visit. I cannot believe the relieve. that I have on my knee. Walking up our stairs last nite was such a relieve. Sleeping I didn't even have to use my arms to help move the knee to turn over. Thank You once again!! See you around Thanksgiving. Need to go for a short walk. See ya soon.
Wait time is sometimes excessive but is well worth waiting. Dr. Kompouras is knowledgeable, friendly, and patient. He genuinely cares about his patients. I visited numerous doctors and had many false diagnosis before having the luck of meeting Dr. Kompouras. He accurately diagnosed and helped me after one visit.
Excellent. Knowledgeable and caring!!
Extraordinary gifted physician. The real "Dr House"!
Simply an unbelievable physician, with old-school approach, and modern knowledge and use of modern technology.
Dr. Koumpouras diagnosed me with something that I guarantee would have taken the rest of my life for others to figure out. I have many specialists involved in my care and he put all the pieces of the puzzle together. He figured out what others could not. I am a nurse practitioner and I can say that I trust this man with my life. I am eternally grateful for the gift he has. He is the most caring doctor I have ever met and I been in medicine for twenty years. I can never repay him.
I have had chronic fatigue, brain fog, numbness, joint pain and dizziness that has kept me from living a normal life for over 18 years. I had seen by various PCP's in several states and a Neurologist. Fourteen years of being misdiagnosed with everything from MS, Chronic Fatigue, PPD and anxiety was very frustrating and caused anxiety! Finally, I was referred to Dr Koumpouras who ordered extensive blood work and had me diagnosed with Lupus by my second visit with him. He is very thorough and spends a long time each visit listening to your concerns, collaborating with you to sort out the best course of action/treatment. I am a "retired" RN and am exceptionally picky about my doctors. I can tell which ones are genuine and which are not. There are many doctors out there that have "good" reputations that I do not consider to be good doctors. Dr. Koumpouras happens to have a good reputation AND is a good doctor. My only complaint with his practice is that there is a long wait to see him (for obvious reasons), and that his staff is not good about following up with lab results etc. I have to chase down results and keep on top of things. The office is very busy ----- they need to hire more nurses to follow up with patients, I think the ones that they have are stretched too thin.
Dr. Koumpouras was wonderful. I had to drive pretty far but it was well worth the visit. He is very caring and you can tell he wants to help his patients. I had previously seen another rheumatologist and didn't get any help from him so I did my research to find Dr. Koumpouras. He is very thorough sends his patients for for thorough labs and gives a thorough exam. Also he works at a place called "The Lupus Center of Excellence" and he is excellent. A graduate of Yale, what more can you ask for.
I was very pleased with my care from Dr. K. What I did not like was he changed offices 4 times while I was a patient. The office went from a convenient location, to 1 that was OK, to yuck. I also was schedule to see Dr. K and was passed to the PA. I would not have minded but I had not been asked if I minded seeing her. I think you should be informed who you will see rather than just give to a PA.
While Dr. Koumpouras is clearly and expert in his field, everyone surrounding him is incompetent. The PAs and other workers in his office are incapable of calling in prescriptions, providing followup information to patients, getting new prescriptions prescribed by the Dr. pre-authorized, or answering simple necessary follow-up questions. I would not recommend this office to my worst enemy.
He is the most caring doctor that I have ever seen. He listens to what you have to say, I mean truly listens and then he finds a way to help.
As a successful RN in critical care and emergency medicine for sixteen years, soon to be nurse practitioner, I have been around physicians for twenty years. I have never met a more attentive, compassionate, and brilliant physician as Dr. Koumpouras. I have been sick for a year and a half with countless visits to PCP and specialists that for the most part blew me off. Unfortunately, the chain of events has resulted in some very concerning problems at this point. He is double board certified in two specialties and is a very special man. He cleaned up 18 months of really crappy care I received/didn't receive even as a health care provider myself. He not only cares, he goes above and beyond for the benefit of his patient. I am forever grateful for his services today, as we sort through the mess to get me diagnosed and hopefully living with a better quality of life. He is definitely using his highly specialized gifts for the greater good of humanity. Definitely are a rare breed of physicians at the WPAHS Lupus Center, as I know others that go there as well. The office staff are friendly, helpful, and they make you feel welcomed from the moment you walk in the door. More than highly recommended, he has given me peace that I haven't had in a year in a half and hope!!!!!
I had almost given up the hope of ever finding a doctor who can put all the puzzle pieces together. Dr. Koumpouras was patient, methodical and asked for details that no doctor ever cared to learn about. His open mindedness and thoroughness has led to a conclusive diagnosis with verifiable result to back it up as opposed to guesses that I have been subjected to for the past fifteen years.Now my entire family is setting up to see Dr. Koumpouras so he can explain those daunting symptoms in the world of autoimmune diseases. You rock Dr. Koumpouras!
I thank the good Lord everyday for letting me find Dr. K. For several years I would tell my doctors that "I ache all over, but especially my joints." It got to the point, they were about to commit me, thinking I had gone off the deep end! Thankfully my neurologist learned about Dr. K and referred me. On my first visit, after explaining all of my symptoms, he said he was confident I has Fibromyalgia, Sjogren's Syndrome and Rheumatoid Arthritis, but would send me for blood work to confirm his diagnosis. Darn tootin'!! He was right on the money!! Each visit, he listens to me and takes the time to explain everything to me and answers all questions I may ask. I feel like a new person, thanks to Dr. K. May God Bless him and keep him in Pittsburgh!! It's a 2 hour drive for me, but I'd drive two days or more just to be able to be seen by Dr. K!! Thanks Dr. K. for being such a caring, compassionate doctor ... we all love ya!!
Dr. Koumpouras is the best doctor I've ever had. I feel as though he really cares about me and my condition. He pays close attention when I talk and has kept my Lupus in remission since I've started as a patient of his.
He is a caring and compassionate doctor. He actually listens to you....a rare trait in today's healthcare world!
I absolutely love Dr. Koumpouras! He's a great doctor that really cares and always takes the time to explain everything to me. He's very friendly, and I'd highly recommend him to anyone.

Glendower House
Well appointed and thoughtfully decorated, Glendower House is ideally situated for town, beach and daytrips further afield.
The room was comfortable with a very good shower system. Parking is at a premium in the summer so the car park at the rear was great. Some traffic noise continues late and starts early affecting the front facing rooms. Overall a great find, good value and great breakfast !

A Nice Bed and Breakfast experience in Minehead
Having never stayed in a Bed and Breakfast before I hoped after reading good comments and a personal recommendation we would not be disappointed and we were not.
The husband and wife team went out of their way to make you feel welcome. The room was lovely and cleaned everyday. The food for breakfast was plenty we could have had more but could not fit it all in. The location was ideal in centre of town and just round the corner from the person we were visiting. We will be booking here for our next visit. Highly Recommended.

I've been typing some long posts on a slow connection lately and when doing a spell-check if the auto-save fires off you lose you spell- checking. A slow connection plus a long post means that the auto-save kicks in before I can even click on a misspelled word.
