The Relationship between Inflation, output growth, and their Uncertainties: Evidence from selected CEE countries
In this paper, we examine causal relationships among inflation rate, output growth rate, inflation uncertainty and output uncertainty for ten Central and Eastern European transition countries. For this purpose, we estimate a bivariate GARCH model that includes output growth and inflation rates for each country. Then we use conditional standard deviations of inflation and output to proxy nominal and real uncertainty, respectively, and perform Granger-causality tests. Our results suggest that inflation rate induces uncertainty about both inflation rate and output growth rate, which is detrimental for real economic activity. On the other hand, we find that output growth rate reduces macroeconomic uncertainty. In addition, we also examine and discuss causal relationships among remaining variables.

Hi friends,
How we can zoom out the components like Charts etc in Xcelsius ?
Hi seema...
Have you achieved this?
If your dashboards is having very few components we can do this by using dynamic visibility feature.
Create same chart with the big size and aply dynamic visibility to it by peoviding one zoom icon.
Hi Seema,
If your user required exactly zoom functionality dynamic visibilty will not satisfy the user requirement better download cusom charts or else develop same components in flex.

"Broad" Support?
By Gene Grant
Here's the problem with the idea of deploying broadband to "everyone," be it Albuquerque or Pie Town: It gets policy-makers loopy. The holiest of postmodern grails, broadband for all has produced all manner of magic carpet ride promises in recent years. And some serious meltdowns. But the pull of broadband—and all its related economic and social theories—is just too juicy to resist.
Odds & Ends
By Devin D. O'Leary
Dateline: New York—In August, ultra-dissatisfied customer Dalton Chiscolm sued the largest U.S. bank, demanding "1,784 billion, trillion dollars" for poor customer service. He also asked for an additional $200,165,000 in punitive damages, according to court papers. Last Thursday, U.S. District Court Judge Denny Chin called Chiscolm's lawsuit against Bank of America "incomprehensible" in Manhattan Federal Court. "He seems to be complaining that he placed a series of calls to the bank in New York and received inconsistent information from a 'Spanish woman,' " the judge wrote. Chiscolm's unusual monetary demand is larger than a sextillion dollars, or a 1 followed by 21 zeros. The sum far exceeds the world's 2008 gross domestic product of $60 trillion, as estimated by the World Bank. "These are the kind of numbers you deal with only on a cosmic scale," Sylvain Cappell, New York University's Silver Professor at the Courant Institute for Mathematical Science, told New York's Daily News. "If he thinks Bank of America has branches on every planet in the cosmos, then it might start to make some sense." Judge Chin gave Chiscolm until Oct. 23 to better explain the basis for his claims or else see his complaint dismissed.
I enjoy living simply and healthy at less than half the U.S. poverty level for me as a single person. I lived well for all of 2008 on $3,539 for my total expenses—rent, food, etc. I have no right to more than I need while others in this world have less than they need.

It's a pretty scary game. The monster (Pictured above) moves insanely quickly and kills you instantly. Your only defense is it cannot move while you're looking at it. The moment you turn your back *crack* dead. Oh yea, you also have to blink regularly.

Today's bikes are faster, lighter and have many more options than bikes of even a decade ago. Unless you have the technical knowledge and know exactly what you're looking for, this is a case where an established bicycle specialty store has the advantage over buying online or from retailers that sell a wide variety of unrelated products.
Neil Wechsler opened Montlake Bicycle Shop in Seattle 30 years ago and says one common mistake novice buyers make is getting a bike that doesn't suit their intended purpose. He says while style and color are important, the key is to look for a bike that fits. That means a lot more than making sure the seat is the right height -- especially for kids.
"The seat height alone is not everything," said Wechsler. "Because you need to pay attention to is it a comfortable reach for them from the seat to the handle bars? If they're too stretched out, then they will be in less control of the bike."
It's also important to know what kind of riding the child will do. Will they simply be riding on flat surfaces around the neighborhood, or on longer rides with the entire family? Knowing how the bike will be used will help you avoid buying more or less bike than you need. The big trend in bikes for young kids in the 3- to 6- year-old range, is something called a balance bike.
"Where there's no pedals and there's no propulsion, other than just kicking off with your feet on the ground. The seat would be low to the ground," said Wechsler, demonstrating how the balance bikes work.
No pedals means the child uses leg power to get around and naturally learns to balance on two wheels.
When it comes to adult bikes, Wechsler says don't get hung up on the number of gears -- a critical factor in hilly conditions.
"It's not important how many gears there are," he said. "What's important is the low gear low enough for their needs? Is the high gear high enough for their needs?"
That's an important distinction many bike buyers overlook. Other common oversights: tire thickness, in case you want to add accessories, such as a rear luggage rack or fenders that need to fit between the tire and the bike frame.
"A lot of people want fenders on there if they're riding year round. But most of the light weight road bikes don't have any space in there, so there's not enough space to put it," Wechsler explained.
If it's been a while since you've been bike shopping, talk to someone knowledgeable about what you need before you plunk down the cash. Also just make sure you can return the bike later, so the recipient can make any adjustments or changes.
Many bike shops go the extra mile to make sure the bike you end up with is the right bike for your purpose. It can mean the difference between getting a bike that just looks good and a bike that gives you years of service and enjoyment.

Lombard Street information
You've seen its eight switchbacks in a thousand photographs. The tourist board has dubbed this 'the world's crookedest street, ' which is factually incorrect. Vermont St in Potrero Hill deserves that award, but Lombard is much more scenic, with its red-brick pavement and lovingly tended flowerbeds. It wasn't always so bent; before the arrival of the automobile it lunged straight down the hill.
Don't try anything funny here. The recent clampdown on renegade skaters means that the Lombard St thrills featured in Tony Hawk's Pro Skater video game will remain strictly virtual, at least until the cops get slack. Used to be that every Easter Sunday in the early 2000s, adults had arrived at the crest of Lombard St toting plastic toy tricycles for the annual Bring Your Own Big Wheel Race. But after vehement complaints from kill-joy residents, the art-prankster organizers moved their toy-joyride to – where else? – Vermont St. Now it's moved again.

In a six to one vote the Lewiston City Council decided to uphold the decision by Planning and Zoning to change zoning within the Normal Hill area. The request came from The Neighborhood Market owner, who said he wants easier access for his customers.
"Make the property use a little better than it is right now," said Neighborhood Market Owner, Sukhjit Gill. "So that's the reason why we want the neighbor house to actually open up the area where the gas pumps are going."
Gill said he plans to knock the house down to promote the development. Councilor Ged Randall was the only one to vote against this measure.

Life-Changing Breakthroughs in Mind-Body-Spiri
Leigh McDougall, M.A.
Leigh McDougall is a gifted intuitive facilitator of self-realization processes. She has the ability to initiate the release of core energetic patterns that are the source of conflict and limitations in our lives and our relations
"Over the years of working with people I've gained greater insight into the archetypal patterns that form our personal reality. These conditioned mental and emotional patterns become concentrated knots where life-force energy is withheld. Unwinding these areas allows an opening to realizations and renewal. This expanded inner awareness touches on many levels in a way that is both grounding and freeing. It is life-changing from the inside out."
"What may take many months or years in cognitive or talk therapy, meditation practices or other well-known energetic modalities, Leigh is able to get at the heart of in a few sessions. Her work awakens the untapped potential that lies within. If you are ready to make a substantial change in how you live your life, you couldn't be in better hands."
C. Andersen- New Energetics
I met Leigh at a time in my life when I needed to change but couldn't. Through my work with her I was able to make some important decisions that set me on a new more fulfilling path. I began to believe in myself and take risks. Something I would not have had the courage to do before. Leigh accesses a profound level of knowledge and vision. She guided me to heal long standing issues that I was unable to release even after years of excellent therapeutic modalities. I highly recommend Leigh for those who want to change and live life more fully."

Remembering an American HeroPosted on 1/15/13 - by Curt Carter email@example.com
Dear LCPL Kevin Arthur Cahill, sir
As an American, I would like to thank you for your service and for the ultimate sacrifice that you made on behalf of our wonderful country. The youth of today could gain much by learning of heroes such as yourself, men and women whose courage and heart can never be questioned.
May God allow you to read this, and may He allow me to someday shake your hand when I get to Heaven to personally thank you. And please know that men and women like you have stepped forward to defend our country yet again, showing the same love for country and their fellow Americans that you did- you would be proud.
With respect, and the best salute that a civilian can muster for you.

I'll Never Forget You !Posted on 8/16/06 - by Mike O'HareIn high school Kevin and I shared shared some classes together, so we saw each other every day. He was a real good kid and I enjoyed having him in my classes. Of course that would change after we graduated.MORE
One of the last times I remember seeing Kevin was a month after we graduated from Lynn English High. It was at a Rolling Stones concert tour stop, held in Lynn's Manning Bowl, at the end of June 1966.
We met up on the field at the front row about 25 feet from the stage. Kevin and I were jumping up on each others shoulders to get better views as the Stones performed. We were laughing and having a good time.
The concert ended (prematurely) because of the pushing that started in the rear. So the cops panicked and started spraying everyone up front with tear gas which got both of us. That ended the fun.
From time to time I still think of that night Kevin and I enjoyed that Rolling Stones concert and our time in school. Those were very good days!
Kevin, may you always rest in peace, my friend.

Personal thoughtPosted on 9/25/02 - by C. Michael RainboltI was Kevin's friend. I met Kevin in July of 1966 at Parris Island, S.C. We were in boot camp together. For eight weeks Kevin and I marched, ate and stood in formation next to each other, and became close friends. Kevin and I secretely told each other about our families, our girl friends and dreams of what we would do after we got out of the Corps. Kevin was one of the nicest guys I ever met and certainly one of the best of Platoon 3049. I often think of Kevin, and think what a loss it was that he had to die. I wish I had the opportunity to have known him better.MORE

Doh! Palo Verde Nuclear Power Plant has "Unusual Event;" No Danger, Says APS
An official "unusual event" was declared at the Palo Verde Nuclear Generation Station west of Phoenix on Saturday after water in a junction box outside of reactor containment building caused an electrical short.
KTAR (92.3 FM) radio is the only outlet that appears to have reported the incident, but maybe that's because -- according to Arizona Public Service, anyway -- this is a non-story.
Jim McDonald, a spokesman for APS, told the radio station that McDonald went on to say that "some water got into a junction box. It shorted out. As a result, we declared a notification of unusual event. That is an emergency level, but a very, very, low one. The lowest one."
We're guessing that in the nuclear plant instruction manual, a meltdown would be called a "really, really, REALLY frickin' unusual" event.

Maybe this kind of "event" isn't really noteworthy. A shorted-out junction box certainly wouldn't be news at a coal plant. But nuclear plants are just so -- we'll just say it -- scary.
Not only are thousands of people at risk if radioactive gas belches out of the plant someday, but -- as the Arizona Republic pointed out midway through an article about Palo Verde's safety record -- fear of radioactivity could cause mayhem in the Phoenix area without a single contaminated molecule drifting eastward.
Palo Verde's in one of the safest areas in the country for a nuclear plant, as far as the lack of earthquakes or tsunamis. That leaves pilot error as the leading source of a potential problem.
It's worth keeping an eye on those "unusual events."

Beginning promisingly enough, "Handsome" soon turns monotonously angst-ridden, with all humor and personality falling by the wayside.
"Handsome Harry," the second of only two features Bette Gordon directed in the 26 years since "Variety," finds the groundbreaking indie helmer recasting her feminism into an all-male study in gay denial. Scripted by '70s counterculture lenser Nicolas Proferes and thesped by a veritable who's-who of gifted character actors, the pic (like Gordon's 1998 "Luminous Motion") loosely resembles a road movie: A man, dragging along a secret, revisits co-participants in a traumatic event that transpired decades earlier. Beginning promisingly enough, "Handsome" soon turns monotonously angst-ridden, with all humor and personality falling by the wayside. Theatrical chances look iffy.
At the deathbed behest of Tom (Steve Buscemi), a buddy from his long-ago Navy days, Harry (Jamey Sheridan) sets off to convey Tom's profound apologies to a third ex-sailor, Kagan (Campbell Scott, as it turns out), whom they both have wronged. Since Harry himself is haunted by half-remembered snatches of a night only hazily glimpsed in flashback, he decides to call on his other guilty comrades to determine exactly what happened on that fateful evening.
A dying Tom, fearful of going to hell, is a trip in itself, and launches Harry's quest in high style. The next stop on his personal stations of the cross maintains this promising flamboyance: Dropping in on boozing real-estate tycoon Peter (John Savage) during an ugly marital dustup, Harry soon finds himself kicked out, sharing a bed and a curiously tender night with Pete's wife, Judy (Mariann Mayberry).
Unfortunately, subsequent meetings — featuring Aidan Quinn in muddled antimilitaristic mode and Titus Welliver as the born-again husband of a paraplegic — play more like baldly outlined sketches than fully fleshed-out scenes. Treating supplemental characters more as stepping stones on Harry's journey than as alternative answers to questions of what defines masculinity, Gordon puts all her emotional eggs in one basket — the disclosure of Harry's terrible secret, which has become screamingly self-evident long before the dramatic denouement.
Yet even that might not have mattered had Gordon exploited the road movie's promise of surprising encounters and quirky revelations. Instead, as in "Variety," the notion of all-consuming obsession takes over after a certain point, anticlimactically winding down by feeding exclusively on itself.
In "Variety," Gordon's exploration of pornography and feminine voyeurism daringly implicated the very act of filmmaking, while bravely calling into question key feminist tropes. Here, however, her examination of male sexual identity, while benefiting greatly from astounding HD clarity and brilliantly sampled jazz, seems limited in terms of both narrative and mise-en-scene.
A gaunt Scott, struggling to infuse his final showdown with Sheridan with enough unfulfilled promise to constitute tragedy, is constantly upstaged by compositions that trumpet their meaning so loudly, even Scott's silence seems redundant.

Illegal German tourist Carlo Konstantin Kohl, 24, admits to drug trafficking when charged over property offences
- From: The Courier-Mail
- September 27, 2012
A YOUNG Bavarian tourist went on a crime spree to raise $25,000 to cover a drug debt he incurred by misplacing about 1000 ecstasy tablets he had been trafficking, a court has been told.
German national Carlo Konstantin Kohl, 24, was before Brisbane's Supreme Court on Thursday for sentence on more than 30 charges - including his role in the theft of $165,000 worth of opals from Coober Pedy, in South Australia.
Kohl also pleaded guilty to trafficking ecstasy and cannabis over a three year period and engaging in a violent home invasion during which he threatened to shoot and kill his victim.
The court was told Kohl, from Munich in southern Germany, was illegally in Australia and aged between 18 and 21 when he committed the 34 offences between June 1, 2007, and June 23, 2009.
The Courier-Mail in June last year revealed Kohl's sentencing hearing had to be delayed when international police investigators - Interpol - alerted Queensland authorities the young German had a European criminal record.
Prosecutor Michael Lehane told the court Kohl did have a history of crimes committed in Germany, as well as offences committed in Victoria.
Mr Lehane said Kohl's drug trafficking was only revealed when the illegal tourist confessed to police while they interviewed him about numerous property offences, including a number of break-ins and the home invasion.
The court was told Kohl revealed his role as a drug courier to explain why he needed to steal property in a bid to pay off a $25,000 drug debt.
Mr Lehane said Kohl told police he needed money after being threatened by his supplier after the disappearance of an estimated 1000 ecstasy tablets.
He said Kohl also admitted his role in illegally transporting a large quantity of stolen opals into Queensland as well as stealing numerous passports and altering or tampering with them for his personal use.
Lawyers of Kohl said the distraught young tourist "went off the rails" after learning about the death of his father in 2006.
Barrister Sarah Thompson, for Kohl, said her client had been subjected to extreme violence while in custody in Queensland - suffering a fractured jaw, nose and cheekbone during an assault by two prison inmates.
The hearing before Justice Jean Dalton, SC, continues.

Dr. George is an amazing person as well as pychiatrist. I have been under his medical care for almost 2 1/2 years, and could not be happier. His bedside manner is truly delightful-quite a change from my other experiences with pychiatrists. He truly cares for his patients, and immediately makes you feel at ease. I also like the fact that he is one of few doctors that perform ECT in the DC area. Overall he is a stellar professional and warm person. I highly recommend Dr. George to anyone seeking mental health services.
I have been seeing Dr George for almost a year. He is very thorough and careful when prescribing medication. He listens well and truly wants to help. All in all a highly skilled doctor and a very nice person.
I have been seeing Dr. George for quite some time now, and I don't think I've ever met a doctor who cares more about his patients. He goes far beyond the call of duty to help in anyway he can. Not only is he an excellent doctor, but a wonderful person too so he doesn't treat you like a job. He's very knowledgeable about treatment options, and will do what he feels best rather than is popular. You can tell he's not only about money, but is rather much more interested in a patients recovery. He's also a very friendly and kind person, which makes him easy to trust and to talk to.

WASHINGTON - For the second consecutive day the Georgetown softball team comes away with one win and one loss at the UMBC Tournament in Baltimore, Md. Siena College narrowly escaped with another 1 run victory in the morning, 7-6, and the Hoyas went on to defeat Morgan State in the afternoon game, 9-2.
A late 4-run comeback in the sixth inning was good enough for Siena to win their second matchup against the Hoyas, both ending in one-run finishes. Georgetown led 5-3 going into the bottom of the sixth but surrendered four hits and two unearned runs to help allow Siena back in the game.
Georgetown started off by scoring two runs in the first inning on bases-loaded walks by junior Madeleine Giaquinto (Falls Church, Va./Bishop O'Connell) and sophomore Megan Hyson (Pasadena, Md./Chesapeake). Junior Elyse Graziano (Floral Park, N.Y./Sacred Heart Academy) got in on the action in the second inning, scoring after a leadoff single, stealing second base, and reaching home after advancing on a fielders choice and an error. Georgetown would be up 3-1 after two innings of play.
Siena tied up the ballgame with a two-run homerun in the bottom of the fourth inning however Georgetown would regain the lead in the top of the sixth. Sophia Garqicevich-Almeida (Riverside, Calif./Martin Luther King) hit a two-run double to drive in Hyson and Graziano and Alexandria Antilla (Antioch, Ill./Antioch Community) would bring in Garqicevich-Almeida two batters later with a single to right field to put Georgetown up 6-3.
Siena's comeback in the bottom of the inning was enough to hold for the win. Hyson threw all six innings, striking out seven batters.
Lauren O'Leary (La Canada, Calif./La Canada) took the mound in the second game of the day against Morgan State and continued her excellent week of pitching with a complete game three-hitter for her second win of the tournament. The Hoya offense provided the run support, scoring nine in the victory.
Molly Morrison (Northfield, IL./New Trier) hit an RBI double in the second inning to bring in the first run of the game, and scored on a fielders choice groundout by Graziano later in the inning to put the Hoyas up two. Shikara Lowe (Beaverton, Ore./Jesuit) singled through the left side in the top of the third, bringing home Garqicevich-Almeida who reached base on an error for the 3-0 lead after three.
Samantha Giovanniello (Floral Park, N.Y./Floral Park Memorial) homered in the fourth inning in a game where she went 4-5 from the plate with 2 RBI, both coming from the homerun. The Hoyas put up four more in the seventh inning to cement the victory. Jordan Hansen (Omaha, Neb./Millard West) had a big inning, driving in two runs with a single to left field and stealing home for the final run of t he game.
Georgetown starts a three game home stand on Tuesday in a matchup with the Princeton Tigers, followed by two weekend games against Villanova to begin BIG EAST conference play. First pitch on Tuesday is scheduled for 4:00 p.m. at Guy Mason Field.

"Fun in the Sunshine City" – Join the Society for Commercial Archeology's (SCA) conference in St. Petersburg, Florida, on April 9-12, 2014. From the beginning the growth of St. Petersburg depended on selling the city as a destination. In relying on natural and recreational amenities, the city boomed first in the 1920s and then again after World War II. In that second mid-century growth spurt, development moved away from downtown towards the beaches and western side of the peninsula. Two bus tours during the conference will allow attendees to see roadside resources of the Gulf coast from Weeki Wachee to Sarasota, with particular emphasis on the recreational resources of the golden age of roadside attractions.
The conference will include paper sessions on Friday, April 11, 2014. Prospective speakers are encouraged to submit abstracts on topics exploring Florida's Gulf coast region's natural and recreational resources as tourist destinations, mid-century commercial architecture, and innovative preservation strategies for historic roadside tourist facilities (restaurants, gas stations and motels) and tourism sites. As with all SCA conference paper session, any topics related to the 20th century commercial landscape are welcome. SCA recognizes the unique historical significance of the 20th-century commercial built environment and cultural landscapes of North America, emphasizing the impact of the automobile and the commercial process. SCA carries out projects of documentation, education, advocacy and conservation to encourage public awareness and understanding of these significant elements of our heritage. In addition to its biennial conference, SCA publishes a Journal of articles on roadside topics twice each year and a quarterly newsletter.
SCA welcomes proposals from presenters eager to share their investigations into the history and architecture of the American roadside with a diverse audience of preservationists, stewards, academics, writers, photographers, and others. To propose a conference presentation, please submit a typewritten abstract of no more than 250 words and the following:
· Title of presentation
· Name, title, and occupation of speaker(s)
· Business mailing address and telephone number
· Email address
· Brief resume or curriculum vitae
More than one abstract may be submitted. Typical presentation length will be 20 minutes. Please follow the two guiding principles in making a presentation at an SCA conference: make it visual and make it fun!
Anyone interested in commercial archeology may participate in the annual conference. You are eligible to give a presentation or participate in other capacities in the program provided you are registered for the conference. You do not need to be an SCA member to register. The SCA does not pay stipends or travel expenses of presenters.

The free market of Internet access, driven by constantly improving technology and heightening competition, is a driver of job creation and economic growth. Even Julius Genachowski, Obama's FCC Chairman, has to admit that. This is just one reason we fight FCC power grabs.
So when the government starts talking about new regulations in emerging fields such as "cloud computing", just say no.
And when Steve Chabot makes silly comments about wireless competition without daring to take an actual stand on the issue of the day, just sigh and ignore him. It's a simple question, Steve. Government action, or free market. Pick a side or hush.
So you may have heard that Google is whining pathetically that Apple and Microsoft are big meany poopyheads using patents in a way that's so totally unfair to Google and stuff. They should be made to share, and so Google is threatening to tell nanny Government, apparently. Does my tone sound a bit condescending to Google's recent complaints? If so, it's because I agree with Brian Hall who very harshly executes a perfect takedown of Google.
And it gets better. Microsoft has exposed Google's complaints as misleading, possibly to the point of being dishonest. Said Microsoft's Brad Smith on Twitter:
BradSmi: Google says we bought Novell patents to keep them from Google. Really? We asked them to bid jointly with us. They said no.
So yes, Google is whining, but the whining has no merit. There are complaints about the patent system in America. I've made many of them and I have serious problems with the first-to-file regime enforced by the America Invents Act, but the idea that patents are all out to get Google is absurd.
I talk a lot about House Republicans for two reasons. First, they have the majority, and so they are able to drive the House agenda. But second, they're also a lot more open about what they're doing, and get out there and tell me and everyone else how they're fighting for limited government, innovation, growth, and prosperity. But John Cornyn and Mike Lee have gotten loud with a strong letter against big government, when it comes to the AT&T/T-Mobile deal. Good on them. This merger will not affect competition at the low end of service, thanks to the diversity of low-cost regional and small carriers. At the high end, it will increase competition by enabling AT&T to compete with Verizon and Sprint in the 4G market.
I don't talk much about trademarks, but if Bethesda can legally own the word "scrolls" against all comers such as Minecraft's developer, then the trademark system's a bit out of hand.
Facial recognition is a fast developing technology, and Facebook's use of it just got banned in Germany. We shall see just if or how Facebook responds to this. They clearly want to keep using the technology, and hope as few people as possible opt out. It's a global Internet, after all.
When ICANN announced it'd be selling new top level domains (to go along side .com, .us, .museum (?!), and the rest), I called it a cash grab, and a questionable decision. It turns out there's an upside though. Some are worried that big companies will lose control of their names, opening the door for easier creation of parody and criticism sites. When the Internet is egalitarian, it does well.

PSC trims utility rate increase to less than 1%
The state Public Service Commission declined to penalize Wisconsin Public Service Corp. for problems surrounding its coal-fired power plant near Wausau as it trimmed the Green Bay utility's request for a rate increase.
Because fuel costs for power plants declined in 2010, the PSC was able to offset the utility's proposed 2011 rate increase on Thursday. As a result, WPS customers can expect electricity rates to rise less than 1%, although a final decision is expected in the coming week or so.
The commission also reduced local natural gas charges for 2011, which will mean a drop of about $2.20 a month for the average residential customer, the agency said.
At a meeting Thursday morning, commissioners said WPS did not act imprudently in addressing problems that led to frequent unexpected shutdowns of the new coal plant in 2008 and 2009.
At issue are problems with a metal alloy in a steam-generator tube at Weston 4 that have caused a series of shutdowns since the $758 million power plant opened. The problem is being addressed through quarterly outages, the utility says.
The ratepayer group Citizens' Utility Board had asked to trim the rate hike further because of the plant outages, saying WPS should have taken other steps to deal with the problem.
Commissioners disagreed.
"Even if they were more proactive, what could they have done differently?" PSC Chairman Eric Callisto said. "There's no known solution to this problem, and the industry as a whole is working to solve it."
Commission staff had proposed a rate increase for WPS of $23 million, or 2.5%, but that was trimmed to an increase of about $6 million, or less than 1%. Residential and small-business customers can expect to see an increase of 0.8%, while industrial customers would see a rise of 0.4%, Callisto said.
For a typical residential customer using 600 kilowatt-hours of electricity a month, an increase of about 60 cents is projected, raising monthly electric bills to more than $77.
Commissioners also reduced the maximum profit that the regulated electric utility can make in 2011.
WPS had requested that it be allowed to earn a return on equity of 11.25%, but commissioners agreed to limit the profit level to 10.3%, which the Citizens' Utility Board projected would save about $13.3 million.
"CUB argued that WPS' shareholder profits should be reduced significantly to lower residential customer bills," said Charlie Higley, CUB executive director, in a statement.

Times Cinema to reopen Dec. 28
The Times Cinema will reopen Friday with floodlight hitting the skies, a red carpet purportedly filled with paparazzi and "Django Unchained" on the screen.
The Times, at 5906 W. Vliet St., has been closed since March, when the lender for the building and other properties, including the Rosebud Cinema in Wauwatosa, began foreclosure proceedings. Investor Lee Barczak, who owns the Avalon Theatre property in the Bay View neighborhood, bought the Times and Rosebud at a foreclosure auction in May, and reopened the Rosebud in August »Read Full Article(1)
Theatre Unchained fails to recapture magic of 'Fawlty Towers'
After two series involving 12 priceless episodes of "Fawlty Towers" — one of the great sitcoms of all time — authors John Cleese and Connie Booth called it quits, partly because they were concerned a third series could bring a falloff in quality.
Watching the patchy Theatre Unchained production on Saturday night of three "Fawlty" episodes — "The Germans," "The Kipper and the Corpse" and "Basil the Rat" — I found myself wishing it had followed Cleese and Booth's example. »Read Full Article(2)
