Today I present you with my Elliott Wave Analysis of Raytheon Co. Use these Elliott Wave Charts to learn how to anticipate market turns. It is possible for a careful trader to sit patiently and wait for great opportunities like these. The mistake most of us make is we get impatient, both to enter the market and to take profits. To make it worse, we are willing to wait for ever to cut a loss-making trade because we become hopeful that the market will come back to our breakeven rate! We do all this even though we know we shouldn't be doing it. That is human nature. To control such behavior you need either someone else to tell you when to get out, or have an iron will and discipline to follow your own rules. Good luck.
Hello Folks!
Well, it is about 3 weeks since my last post here, and many of you must be wondering if I have forgotten you! Of course not. WaveTimes will always be around as long as I am. The paid service has been keeping me busy as well. And during January, I made a quick trip to India to attend the wedding of my friend's son…..
Anyway, here I am, boldly sharing with you a trade that went wrong in the paid service. First, read the trade idea carefully, and then let us figure out what went wrong.
The trade was first posted on 6 Jan 2013 as follows:
Sometimes we arrive at a fork in the road. We can see clearly both the roads beyond, but we don't know which one to take. Elliott Wave analysis of Micro Technologies India Ltd has brought us to such a fork. We have either completed a 3rd wave that traveled 161.8% of the first wave, or we have completed an extended 5th wave. The implications are profound. If an extended fifth wave has been completed at the Rs 38 level, we should soon be on our way to wave ii of the fifth, and this comes at the Rs66 level. On the other hand, if we have just seen a 4th wave unfold as a triangle, we should look for one more move down and then a recovery. What should we do?
15 Jan 2013 update
MICT came to a low of 41.60 today. As your stop is below 38, at this level you are risking less than Rs 4 per share. I am considering we are all LIVE on this trade. Will post an update when a clear move happens on either side.
(Then on 26 Jan, we bit the bullet)
26 Jan 2013 update
We have been stopped out on this trade, losing around Rs 4 per stock. Thankfully, we had kept the position small because we were forewarned that although the returns were attractive if it worked, there was a clear possibility of the count being wrong, and that we could go down all the way to below Rs 32. There is no doubt that some of you are disappointed, and perhaps this is a good time to consider if this service is really for you. Please be aware that professional traders take small losses quite regularly because when they win, it more than adequately compensates for the small losses. However, in order to survive for the big day, you need to keep your trade size reasonably small. No single loss should upset you too much. If this is not the case, then trading is not for you! Most beginning traders give up because they trade too big a position hoping to strike it rich quickly. Unfortunately, in the real world, such notions are pure fiction.
Let us remain optimistic. Our Nifty Trade was a clear winner and there will be many such opportunities going forward
NOw what do you think we did wrong? Unless you are an arm chair analyst, you will realize that we were following a plan. We had identified the opportunity and the risk associated with it. We knew how much to risk, and when to get out. Only Elliott Waves give these advantages, the edge.
Now that the S&P500 has entered the 1435-1450 window that I had discussed in my Forbes article, it is natural that we ask ourselves what next for the index. I thought maybe this is a good time to spell out my approach to the markets again. Elliott Wave analysis is a great tool to have in your armory if you know how to use it. Some of us are under the illusion that Elliott Waves will give all the answers to our problems (the main one being our craving to know in advance where the market will turn). The truth is (and I have no hesitation in admitting this) no one knows the future. Can I be wrong about the anticpated turn in the 1435-1450 window? Of course! Does that make all the charts (and my interview on Forbes) utterly useless? Of course not. The key point we have to learn is this. Have a model on which to base your trades. Then get into the market at key levels. When the odds are highly in your favor, you should risk real money. Elliot Waves gives you that opportunity. For example, in my most recent update I had suggested that we will get a dip below 1400 and then rally to 1435-1450.
The prospect of something bitterly disappointing in terms of news flows was quite remote at that point in time. So there was a low-risk trade below 1400. However, as we enter the window where a turn was anticipated by my analysis, the odds for a continuation of the rally seems to be better than an about turn. In such a situation, we have to be cautious. Even if the market does make an about-face in the next few sessions, the bulls are not going to give up without a fight. So we will very likely get a full re-test of the highs from which any such about-face happens. In these circumstances, it is to our benefit that we remain patient and watch the market developments with interest. Never get into a trade while the odds are not yet moving markedly in your favor.
Now a few words about the value of Elliott Wave analysis even if one is going to be wrong. While the market was recovering from the lows at 1267, Elliott Waves told us to look for a 3-wave recovery before a possible sell off. Then, as the market developed, and not too far away from the lows, I pointed out that we are very likely going to get a full test of the highs (which at that time was still 1422). ANd further out, I came up with a diagonal triangle scenario that suggested we will travel to 1435/1450. AT every stage, if one were persistently bearish, he would have refrained from selling until a better level was seen! However, this trader who remained a bear would have missed buying on dips. Without a question, that was an opportunity loss. But this trader was still following his model. There could have been short-term low risk trades that a bolder trader could have made (for example, the move from 1396-1435) but in general, the value came from being faithful to your model. The persistent bear would strike it rich at some point because he is following a model. Not because he is clever, but because he has a method. That, dear reader, is the lesson that we all have to bear in mind. Use Elliott Waves to tarde the market, not to showcase we are brilliant at counting. Good luck.
PS. The bearish counts on the S&P are still not negated by the way 🙂
We make it hard because we often forget that we need a low risk trading strategy. Read this short piece on MarketWatch.
If you are looking to learn how to use fibonacci ratio retracements, you have come to the right spot. A few years back I read a book by Constance Brown – "Technical Analysis for the Trading Professional". She made a very good point on how the 'theorist' among technical analysts would, incorrectly, choose the extremeities of a move to draw fibonacci retracements.
Choosing the right place to draw fibonacci ratio retracements could mark the difference between success and failure in trading decisions.
Such an approach would often result in their missing a good move because the market falls just short of their ideal retracement levels. The practising professional would spend a few extra minutes to see what were the pressure points in recent history and choose to ignore the spikes that shows up ever so often. Why make the same mistake as some poor trader whose stops were run in by the market at the extremities? Here is a demonstration of the two outcomes using the chart of Sterling Pound. The same technique for using fibonacci ratio retracements works equally well, whether you are considering the chart of a stock, an index, forex or a commodity.
"To aggressively pursue opportunity and equally aggressively refrain from risk when opportunity is not present requires a highly developed Will. We train ourselves for our careers, and we train ourselves physically. Rarely, however, do we train the Will and cultivate our capacity to act with purpose and intent." Dr. Brett Steenbarger.
There are many good blogs out there in the web, but Traderfeed ranks high. Take a look, and you may wish to review his posts every few days. His posts often leave you thinking about your recent trades. Here is the link.
Welcome to the magical world of Elliott Wave Analysis. You have probably arrived here because you wish to learn more about Elliott Wave Principle and how to use it to improve your trading performance. Whether you are trading in the foreign exchange market (forex) or in stock markets or commodities, you have come to the right spot. Some of you might have been introduced to the Wave theory earlier, but never seen it being applied in real time. Some others might regard Elliott Wave Principle as a load of B.S. because their experience with the so-called experts has been far from satisfactory. To all of you, I extend a hearty welcome. Let us make a fresh start with Wave Times, because what you see here are real-world examples taken from currency markets or stock markets or commodities markets. You will gradually learn how to read the charts more accurately, and pretty soon you will see your trading strategy improve.
I am not going to burden you with the hard-core theory, the rules and the guidelines here. You will find a lot of useful links on either side of this page that will serve as your library of links. (Feel free to return as often as you like. Remember, the more charts you study, the better you get at spotting low risk trading set-ups.) I am going to concentrate on giving you as many examples as possible from my past trading experience. Whether you are a professional trader, or a casual dabbler in any of the financial markets, an understanding of Elliott Wave Analysis will make a tremendous change to your bottom line. Happy hunting!
How do I use Elliott Wave Analysis?
I use Elliott Wave analysis to give me an idea of where we are in an unfolding move, and also how far that move could go. If there is one important lesson I have learnt in using Wave Analysis, it is this: Your analysis could be the best in the world, but until the move happens, you are no better than anyone else out there. In other words, the best use you could put your analysis is to take the trade that is suggested, but be sure to have stops in place. If it works out, then you are a hero, because you got in at the best possible levels, and managed to stick with the move for longer than most others. If you get stopped, well, you paid a smaller price than most others. Do you find this confession a bit disappointing? Unfortunately, this is the real truth.
The Wave Principle will serve you well if you accept that the market will do what it wants to do, when it wants to do it.
It is better for you to know at the outset that the financial market offers no absolutes. Take for instance, the foreign exchange market. It is one of the most liquid markets in the world. Even before the 2008 financial meltdown, in the heydays when big investment banks and hedge funds were able to place single orders running to hundreds of millions of dollars, all they could do was to temporarily move the market a few pips. So anyone who got to know that Soros was selling, and joined in slightly late, would soon find that the market came back. Quite simply, the market is too big for any one, or even a group of players to move it one way or other for too long. However, when the collective sentiment changes, there is a herd instinct that comes to play. This is precisely where Elliott Wave Principle comes to our aid.
The Wave Principle will serve you well if you accept that the market will do what it wants to do, when it wants to do it. I feel that what you really need to succeed in the markets is a guide that will help define probabilities. You should also gain, with experience, the confidence to act on your own judgement. If you can combine this confidence with the discipline that money management requires, then you are already well on the road to success, and riches.
Example of how I use Elliott Wave Analysis
Let me get you started by giving you your first example of how I used Elliott Wave Principle to anticipate a significant move in the S&P500 index. The date was 3rd April 2008, when the index had closed at 1367. I could sense that many traders were looking for the US stock markets to resume its uptrend. As usual, CNBC was giving all the 'right' reasons why one should continue to be optimistic. But having studied the Elliott Wave Principle for over 25 years, I felt that we should be getting ready to SELL! Take a look at the chart first, and then the accompanying notes taken from the book "Elliott Wave Principle" by A.J. Frost and Robert R. Prechter, Jr. (This is a must-read book if you are just getting started on the Wave theory, and you can buy it from Amazon.com.
If you are trading in the Forex markets, and wish to learn how to use Elliott Wave Analysis to trade currencies profitably, then you should start by reading the book "Elliott Wave Principle Applied to the Foreign Exchange Markets" written by Robert Balan. I have had the pleasure of discussing many wave counts with Robert Balan during my days at Standard Chartered Bank when I was writing the popular SCXE pages on Reuters, and this is my chance to thank him.
Timing the Forex market and Elliott Wave Analysis
Anyone who has traded the Forex market will be able to tell you that timing is all important to be profitable. This market is not only extremely volatile, it is also very liquid. These are perfect ingredients for successful use of the Elliott Wave Analysis. However, even experienced wave analysts (myself included) frequently find it very difficult to surmount the psychological barriers that prevent people from becoming fabulously wealthy. If you have a strong stomach, and an iron-cast self-discipline in terms of money-management, and a sound knowledge of the Wave Principle, you CAN become very rich trading the Forex markets.
As I mentioned in the main page, you will find a lot of links on either side that will give you the theory, including rules and guidelines governing Elliott Wave Principle. My aim is to provide you with several examples of its real-time application. I have assembled examples of the use of the Wave Principle in EUR/USD, GBP/USD, USD/JPY, AUD/USD etc as well as some crosses such as GBP/JPY. Many of these examples are drawn from recent history, and more will be added as we go along. For now, I suggest you study each chart carefully along with the notes I have placed on them. That will help you gain a better understanding of how to use Elliott Wave Analysis to trade currencies. Good luck.
I use Elliott Wave analysis to give me an idea of where we are in an unfolding move, and also how far that move could go. If there is one important lesson I have learnt in using Wave Analysis, it is this: Your analysis could be the best in the world, but until the move happens, you are no better than anyone else out there. In other words, the best use you could put your analysis is to take the trade that is suggested, but be sure to have stops in place. If it works out, then you are a hero, because you got in at the best possible levels, and managed to stick with the move for longer than most others. If you get stopped, well, you paid a smaller price than most others.
I would like you to consider the attached chart carefully. SNP500-3-apr-08. I had written this on 3rd April 2008 when the S&P was at 1367. This is a weekly chart (which is why the date on the chart shows the last day of the week). If you go to Yahoo-Finance and look up the daily chart of S&P today, you will observe that after spiking for one day to 1440 on 19th May, the index was sold down to 1201 on 15th July. Then we staged a recovery to 1312 on 8th November. From there, we have reached a low of 1097 till date. The objective mentioned on my analysis was 1060, just a few points away. Will we see a strong recovery from 1060 area? A bounce back to around 1110 is likely, but it is still too soon to think of buying. Be patient.
There are certain times when one can be more confident about using wave analysis. One such time is when we are approaching the end of an extending 5th wave, or soon after we start coming off from an extended 5th wave. In my earlier post on the usefulness of wave analysis, I have shown you an example of how I was able to call a 25% down move using SNP500. Now, here is another example that has happened in recent weeks. The Australian dollar, or AUD, aud-9-oct-2008 has collapsed spectacularly. It was perfectly possible for a good wave analyst to predict this. As you follow this blog, over time you should pick up a lot of useful trading tips that will make you a much better trader. Using Elliott wave analysis, you will be able to time your trade with more confidence.
Do let me know your comments on these posts. Other readers would probably want to discuss with you your experiences via these comments as well. That will enhance your learning experience. Regards, Ramki

AbstractStroke is a leading cause of death, disability and dementia worldwide. Despite extensive pre-clinical investigation, few therapeutic treatment options are available to patients, meaning that death, severe disability and the requirement for long-term rehabilitation are common outcomes. Cell loss and tissue injury following stroke occurs through a number of diverse secondary injury pathways, whose delayed nature provides an opportunity for pharmacological intervention. Amongst these secondary injury factors, increased blood-brain barrier permeability and cerebral oedema are well-documented complications of cerebral ischaemia, whose severity has been shown to be associated with final outcome. Whilst the mechanisms of increased blood-brain barrier permeability and cerebral oedema are largely unknown, recent evidence suggests that the neuropeptide substance P (SP) plays a central role. The aim of this review is to examine the role of SP in ischaemic stroke and report on the potential utility of NK1 tachykinin receptor antagonists as therapeutic agents.

Shops on Main need tax break
Published: Monday, January 11, 2010 at 4:30 a.m.
Last Modified: Friday, January 8, 2010 at 11:19 a.m.
To The Editor: Recently we have seen and heard dire predictions and statements indicating our downtown is suffering from severe economic distress.
However, no valid recommendations to relieve the uncertainty of a stable and prosperous future have been introduced. The present tax structure which imposes a burdensome extra tax on structures located within the Downtown Special Tax District is partially responsible. This tax (which literally doubles the city property tax levied) adds appreciably to the overhead of downtown property owners, thereby boosting rental values.
Perhaps our Mayor and City Council will be willing to review this negative and burdensome situation, thereby providing some relief to property owners and tenants.

We are extremely fortunate to have access to print journalists that take seriously their mission to inform the public. To wit, the June 21 editorial ("Should Rhode Island default?") that reminds us of the 38 Studios debacle.
After all the hoopla and posturing of the politicians, the editorial clearly outlines the hoax that has been perpetrated on Rhode Island taxpayers.
The politicians and bureaucrats are now truly embarrassed by the actions that let a non-elected (read "good ol' boy) Economic Development Commission invest in a scheme that had all sorts of pitfalls -- as evident by private equity firms' refusal to touch it. The risk was inherent and fully known -- however much it remained in the "backroom".
What's missing from the editorial are details of the bond language. For instance, the bond offering by Assured Guaranty Corp. specifically states that "it is not a debt, liability or obligation of the state ... and no full faith or credit is pledged to pay it off..."
Residents should not be swayed by political posturing. Call on your legislators to rescind all payments related to this debacle. Those $90 million can be used elsewhere in the state for truly legitimate functions.

Toddler-Size Soft Seating
In our small living room we have a couch and one arm chair - which lately my son has completely co-opted. He insists on sitting there and cries and cries if someone else dares take his spot. While not wanting to give in to his demands, I have wondered if getting him his own chair wouldn't only delight him, but also keep our chair cleaner (not to mention free for use). So I wanted to see what my options were for small, modern, comfortable chairs. Here are the results of my research with a handful of options at different price points:
I'd love to know what you think - what attractive, toddler-size chairs have I missed? Have you bought a small chair for you kid and regretted it? Loved it? I'll let you know what I decide and will read your comments with interest!

The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo
by Stieg Larsson
Isolation Quotes in The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo
How we cite our quotes: Citations follow this format: (Chapter.Paragraph). We used Reg Keeland/a.k.a. Steven T. Murray's English language translation.
Quote #7
The exact wording states that the guardian shall take over all the client's legal powers. In Sweden, approximately 4000 people are under guardianship. (12.5)
Salander's legal status isolates her from the rest of society. This quote shows that guardianship in Sweden (population nine million) is rare. Salander is a minority in this way.
Quote #8
[…] her only remaining action was to do what she had always done – take matters into her own hands and solve her problems on her own. (12.199)
Salander doesn't know Blomkvist yet when she takes on Bjurman, but what might his plan have been if she'd known him and confided in him? Remember this is before Bjurman rapes her in his apartment.
Quote #9
The message was written in all caps over five lines that covered his belly, from his nipples to just above his genitals: I AM A SADISTIC PIG, A PERVERT, AND A RAPIST. (14.93)
Salander is definitely trying to isolate Bjurman with these tattoos. No more swimming shirtless. The shame of it isolates him emotionally.

Corporate Advocacy Program™
I purchased a 2008 Chevrolet Colorado from Anaheim Chevrolet on April 06, 2008. In the course of financing I purchased a GAP policy from Owner Guard thru the dealer. I sold this vehicle on July 24, 2010, and went to cancel the remaining GAP coverage. I found out that Anaheim Chevrolet was no longer in business, and Owner Guard refused to take any responsibility for the coverage, as they said no funds had been remitted to them. They said to contact my lender which was GMAC. Upon contacting GMAC they said they were sorry but there was nothing they could do, try to contact GM in Detroit.
I did in fact finally get ahold of GM after an entire afternoon of frustration of being hung up on, transferred, and switched to other people to help me. After two days of doing absolutely nothing, I was informed that they were sorry but there was nothing they could or would do. They refused to even give me they name or address of the franchisee for Anaheim chevrolet so I could attempt to contact them. They said I am simply out of luck and there is nothing they can or will do. Superb customer service by GM, is it any wonder this joke of a car maker is going out of business? After 32 years of purchasing GM products there will never be another one in my driveway! Back to Good, Reliable, and Honest (((competitor's name redacted)))!sorry, allowing you to give a competitors name would instigate others to just file against their competition, to only come back later to suggest their company, ..plus, if you post a competitors name more than likely they will show up on search engines as a Rip-off! - - your comments on this policy are welcome.

Did you mean to say "Ford"?
AUTHOR: Ronny g - (USA)
SUBMITTED: Saturday, August 21, 2010POSTED: Saturday, August 21, 2010
Regardless, it is not so much the unions or manufacturers that should bear the brunt of the blame, but the dealerships.
In the case of this report, you are basically left holding the bag because of what another of many shyster dealerships have done. I don't think Ford or Chrysler would have treated you with any more dignity or any better in this case. Welcome to the 21st century..the SCAM age.
Yes..welcome to the age where the customer who is victim to a fraud and scam is told they need to take "responsibility" for their actions..yet businesses can continue to conduct fraud with impunity..and then simply close down shop to avoid any responsibility they may have to face from their evil ways
Are you an owner, employee or ex-employee with either negative or positive information about the company or individual, or can you provide "insider information" on this company?

I got the ring in a timely manner, I have been looking at this ring for about six months. I thought that this ring would make a good ten year anniversary gift when me and my wife renewed our vows. I was so happy when my wife picked the ring out of a group of rings that I showed her, since that was the same ring I was thinking about getting her any way. When I got the ring it looked nice, but it did not look like the picture they had on their web site. I think they need to update their pictures of their rings.
This ring is feminine, sparkly, and unique. Three musts for any wedding set. The second we saw it we knew it was the one. Great quality and great price.
- How did the image on site compare with the actual product? Even better in person
- How accurate was the sizing? Perfect
- Please tell us about the quality of the product. Great

I called Visa TravelMoney, and told them about BBG. They seemed mildly concerned, but insisted they had nothing to do with the charges. I told them I had found several sites on the Internet that stated BBG had these outrageous charges on VISA cards, hence they should educate themselves.
I also asked for my account to be noted that I suspected fraud and will dispute these charges when they are finally posted to my account. As of this point, they were considered "pending" charges and were not final, therefore they could not be disputed.
As soon as they become final, I plan on disputing the charges through Visa. I am also planning on calling/writing the California Attorney General's office, and am contacting a U.S. Attorney I know to see what my options are.
PLEASE, if you have been victimized by BBG, step up and speak out! It is the only way an organization like this is stopped from ripping people off.

RSM Tenon lets go of PWC after audit investigation
Accountancy and advisory firm RSM Tenon has decided not re-appoint PricewaterhouseCoopers as the company's auditors following a shareholder vote.
At RSM Tenon's annual general meeting today (6 December), shareholders voted against taking PwC on again as auditors for the coming financial year.
In total, 36 per cent of the shareholder vote was in favour of keeping the company on, while 64 per cent voted against the proposal.
The board has now begun the process of appointing a new auditor. Although the company aims to finalise the appointment before 30 June 2013, it will be subject to shareholder approval by vote at next year's AGM.
Tensions between RSM Tenon and PwC mounted as an investigation was launched into the company's accounting methods as well as the role of PwC as the company's auditors.
The investigation covered the preparation, approval and audit of RSM Tenon's financial statements for the years ended 30 June 2010 and 2011, and the preparation, approval and review of the financial information connected to the company's admission to the London Stock Exchange.
RSM Tenon recently announced it had entered into a "business as usual monitoring relationship" with the Financial Services Authority after a year of heightened supervision which affected its financial results.
The company has had frequent leadership changes beginning with the resignation of former chairman Bob Morton and former chief executive Andy Raynor.
Adrian Martin, who took over the role of chairman from Mr Morton, announced three months later that he planned to step down along with former non-executive director Michael Findlay.
Meanwhile Chris Merry, previously chief executive officer of Matrix Group, has taken up the position of chief executive officer.

The much-anticipated Deficit Commission is expected to report in December on steps needed to control our runaway spending economy in this country. There are early signs that the group will make some radical, though much-needed, recommendations on our economic future.
Medicare, Medicaid and Social Security top the entitlement list targeted for reform. And by reform we mean cuts and higher taxes to keep these programs in place.
It's no coincidence that the Commission report comes in December following the November elections. No politician is interested in running on a platform of entitlement cuts even though that is exactly what is needed.
The most likely forecast for the blue-ribbon Commission is that it will produce a plan over which everyone can find fault. That's simply the political reality of politicians protecting their constituencies. Of course, that protective road will someday soon come to a dead end though it seems few in Washington are too concerned.
The eventual plan will likely target the haves - a reduction or elimination in home mortgage deductions and some forms of financial means testing for Medicare. But it may also hit the have nots - an elimination of the earned income tax credit.
Crop subsidies may take a hit in the Commission report and virtually all forms of tax breaks for corporations will be examined.
But the sad political reality is that the Commission report will have no binding impact on Congress. Like dozens of similar efforts in the past, the report will provide a blurry roadmap with no power to mandate change. Politicians are prone to ignore the obvious train-wreck for the sake of their political futures.
The report will pit the haves against the have nots, the young against the elderly and the liberal spenders against the conservative fiscal advocates. In other words, little will change.
If we want serious reform before it's too late - assuming we are still at that point - we must adopt radical changes immediately.
Social Security retirement age should increase, there should be some financial entry level for Medicare, Medicaid should be fully revamped, earned income tax credit should be revisited, etc. These are the very same recommendations most Americans would suggest given our doomsday forecast on America's financial future.
With the Bush tax cuts set to expire in January, the Commission report to be released in December and the lame duck Congress that well could precede a GOP majority come January, December has the makings of an interesting month on the political front.
But having spent a lifetime on the fringes of the political world, I know this much. Governments at all levels - including federal, state and local - are notorious for establishing commissions to do the heavy lifting and then ignoring the findings while their reports gather dust on a shelf.
With a $14 trillion debt in this nation, we can no longer ignore the tough decisions. But if we think we can simply continue to soak the rich and spend our way out of debt, we are doomed to our own excesses.

Jimmy Saville 'preyed on 450 children'
Commander Peter Spindler, head of the inquiry into Saville's sexual abuse case, said that Saville had 'groomed a nation' and exploited his fame to sexually assault both children and adults. 'Saville was a predatory serial sexual offender' the Commander claimed. 'We need to reflect on what it was that meant that children were seen and not heard'

Today seems as good a day as any to say a few words about Saturday's episode of Thick, which quite frankly blew my mind.
To describe it as a return to form isn't fair on the series so far, which has been excellent in navigating the political realities of coalition government, but this week's episode truly was a classic and the rest of the series is going to have to be going some to top it. The best half hour of new TV in several years.
Malcolm was subdued in the second episode but was on fire this time around. The way that the various elements of the plot were knitted together to end in Nicola Murray's resignation, which I didn't see coming at all (and I'm fascinated to see how the plotting develops from here), was astounding and a testament to the writers. It was redolent of the specials from a few years ago, that I maintain are two hours of the greatest British comedy created in the modern era.
It was great to see Glen and Ollie back together and it reminded me how much of the comedy came from their relationship. Glen looks totally disillusioned and you can imagine that there are plenty in the Lib Dems right now who feel the same.
John Duggan was even more contemptible than in his cameo in series 3, which takes a bit of doing……… It kind of makes sense to keep having these halfwits popping up again and again. You spend any time in any political milieu in this country and people like him will keep re-appearing, however useless they seem to be.
I suppose the twist where Malcolm crushes Ben just before he is about to go on air and resign should have been expected, considering the way that Ben had been talking to him earlier in the episode. Malcolm doesn't allow a slight to go unanswered. But even so, it was an electrifying moment. Much as I can see why Malcolm hasn't featured prominently in the first three episodes, I have missed him. He brings something that no one else does (barring Jamie maybe. Oh Jamie. Will we ever see you again?)
Which scares me really, as I find myself rooting for him despite his manoeuvrings making Machiavelli's Prince look like a paragon of integrity. He is everything I loathe about the Labour Party and contemporary idea- and policy-free politics, and yet I love him in spite of myself.
Peter Capaldi really is a genius, isn't he? Tucker is one of the great cultural creations of our time.

Sky Jellies
Category: Nature
Photo and caption by Leah Meth
Amongst the uplifted limestone rock islands of Palau lie dozens of marine lakes, formed in basins and sinkholes in the slowly dissolving rock. Over thousands of years, these jellyfish have travelled from the outer lagoons through subterranean fissures, tunnels and cracks, reaching these lakes. Since then, they have become isolated, evolving into distinct, incredible subspecies. Here, in Goby Lake, they've given up their stings in favour of a photosynthetic life: thousands of jellyfish, their bodies packed with zooxanthellae, migrating daily across the quiet water as they follow the sun.
Location: Goby Lake, Rock Islands, Palau

The Morning Leverage: Arab Spring Brings Fall Deals
Here's a look at the top stories in this morning's LBO Wire:
Providence Equity Partners is expanding portfolio company Survey Sampling International through a merger with Opinionology Inc., providing an exit opportunity for the survey purveyor's buyout sponsor Sterling Investment Partners.
In other sponsor-to-sponsor news, Summit Partners' deal to acquire home-care provider CareCentrix Inc. from Water Street Healthcare has cleared the FTC, but hasn't closed just yet. Water Street paid just under $150 million for a 69% interest in CareCentrix in 2008.
Racking up two exits during the month of August, Plaza Belmont Management Group is setting out to raise its third fund focusing on mid-market food companies . . . Warburg Pincus has found a buyer for communications equipment and repair company Telmar Network Technology Inc. . . . GFI Energy Ventures' newest platform, Infrastructure & Energy Alternatives has done its first deal for a Midwest renewable energy contractor.
(LBO Wire is a daily newsletter with comprehensive analysis of all the investments, deals, fund raisings and personnel moves involving private equity firms. For a two-week trial, click here.) Elsewhere on the web:
Lone Star Funds, Wells Fargo and JP Morgan emerged victorious for a $9.5 billion portfolio of U.S. commercial real estate loans from Anglo Irish Bank Corp., in an auction that drew interest from Blackstone Group, TPG and Starwood Capital. The Wall Street Journal's Craig Karmin has the story here.
In other real estate news, Carlyle Group has invested $26 million in Value & Budget Housing Corp., a developer of affordable housing in India. The company has a goal of building 1 million affordable houses during in 10 years, LBO Wire's Chris Chung reports.
Dubai-based Abraaj Capital has taken over management of the $161 million SGAM Al Kantara fund and is picking up the 11-member private equity team from Amundi, a French asset manager owned by Societe Generale and Credit Agricole, LBO Wire reports. The Financial Times expounds on what that deal means for North African countries following the Arab Spring.
The Wall Street Journal's Lingling Wei and Laurie Burkitt detail the logic behind Carlyle Group's 2009 investment in a Chinese producer of infant formula, shortly after a poisoning scandal at another formula-maker killed six and sickened 300,000 infants, and the appeal of investing in China's food chain.
A number of private equity firms and sovereign wealth funds are entering the scrum for a portion of BofA's stake in China Construction Bank. The stake could fetch as much as $10 billion, and would go a long way toward improving the beleaguered American bank's capital position under Basel III regulations, Dealbook reports.

Hungary Rate-Cut Hopes Prompt Record T-Bill Demand
Hungary's record-breaking Treasury bill sale Thursday provided a rare public-relations victory for the country's somewhat embattled government.
It sold 70 billion forints ($319 million) of 12-month treasury bills, the largest amount on record allocated in this instrument. The government had aimed to raise 50 billion forints and had enough offers to have sold well over three times that amount.
Like Poland and the Czech Republic, Hungary's longer term debt sales have enjoyed strong demand fueled by the ocean of liquidity sloshing around since central banks in some countries started printing money in a bid to resolve their financial problems. That cash is finding its way into emerging-market countries offering reasonable yields and not too much risk.
Despite some difficulties–like a recession in the Czech Republic and Hungary, and flagging growth in Poland–those countries have relatively smaller budget deficits and lower debt than their euro-zone cousins, making them attractive to international bond investors.
Danske Bank chief analyst Lars Christensen said in a note Thursday he upgraded his recommendation on Hungary to overweight. "Hungary … has an economy that is fundamentally very weak but carry is still attractive and we expect the forint to benefit from an improved global risk appetite on a six-month horizon," he said.
But unlike Hungary's longer-term bond sales where economic fundamentals and yield are key elements, Thursday's huge T-bill demand seems to have been generated mainly by investors betting that Hungary's interest rates will be cut further. They hope the bills they buy today will be worth more if there is a rate cut.
The Hungarian debt agency didn't say how many international investors bid at Thursday's T-bill auction, which are usually the preserve of local players. However, a rally in the forint to a one-month low of 280 forints against the euro suggests that foreigners were present to a significant degree.
"Despite its much greater idiosyncratic risks vis-a-vis its main regional peers, Hungarian local currency debt has been one of the greatest beneficiaries of this year's central bank-fueled 'risk-on' trade," said Nicholas Spiro, managing director at Spiro Sovereign Strategy.
In any case, investors have good reason to be hopeful of further rate cuts. Hungary's key policy rate was cut by 0.25 percentage point in each of the three months from August to October but at 6.25% is still the European Union's highest.
On top of that, the majority of its seven-member Monetary Policy Council leans marginally in favor of further rate cuts.

Re: "Barack by the numbers," by Morgan Liddick, column, Oct. 23 and "Spending must come under control," by John M. Kunst Jr., letters, Oct. 23
Wow, How clearer can it be said?
We cannot afford 4 more years and those reasons are, but a few. Here are a few more of Obama's "accomplishments" of "firsts."
First president to apply for college aid as a foreign student, then deny he was a foreigner.
First president to hide his medical, educational and travel records.
First president to go on multiple global "apology tours" and concurrent "insult our friends" tours.
First president to tell the military men and women that they should pay their own private insurance because they "Volunteered to go to war and knew the consequences" and then called them UNPATRIOTIC, when they balked.
First president to preside over a cut to the credit-rating of the United States.
First president to spend a trillion dollars on "shovel-ready" jobs, when there was no such thing as "shovel-ready" jobs.
First president to file lawsuits against the states he swore an oath to protect (AZ, WI,OH,IN)
First president to tell a CEO of a major corporation (Chrysler) to resign.
First president to keep a dog trainer on retainer for $102,000 a year at taxpayers expense.
First president to have 22 personal servants (taxpayer funded) for his wife.
First president to repeat the Holy Quran and tell us the early morning call of the Azan (Islamic call to worship) is the most beautiful sound on earth.
The list goes on and on, but space here is limited. Please think before you vote!

In many programing languages it is possible to shorten if statements using what's called the ternary operator. It is sometimes referred as the "one line if statement" or the "short if statement". This can help at times to produce cleaner code, however use this operator wisely as it is not always best to be used for more complicated statements.
PHP Example of an if statement
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8
if($nFoo > 0) { echo "I'm at the work."; } else { echo "I'm at home."; }
