By using normal cells from adult mice researchers claim to have developed eggs that could raise human hope to cure infertility.
[Read: How Age Affects Fertility]
This new study has opened up possibilities for women to become free of any worries about infertility. This study means that women could now have eggs produced in a test tube with their cells if they are incapable of producing eggs on their own. The eggs then would be planted in their body and we could hope for a smooth sailing pregnancy.
[Read: How to get Pregnant with One Ovary]
The research team from Kyoto University, Japan began with blank cells that are capable of turning into other types and then used many nutrients to create an early stage of egg. These eggs were grown in a test tube to achieve an early stage and then were planted in the mice ovaries for them to develop. The next step involves removing the eggs and using In vitro fertilization (IVF) techniques to fertilize them.
Eight puppies were successfully born in two different techniques and out of the lot one died and the others are living a healthy life. This is the first time scientists have actually succeeded in making fully functional eggs and we can only hope the best for the human race.

Make a flexible work schedule work for you
Money & Career
Make a flexible work schedule work for you
Coping with working less hours
When I shifted to a three-day workweek, I was very conscious that I was not only giving up two days of income each week, but I was also temporarily abandoning my dream of expanding our business into a larger consulting practice. And I have to admit there are days that owning a two-person consulting firm doesn't feel all that successful to me. In addition, I have had to play more of a background role (instead of being an equal partner) in the business because I work fewer hours and am in my home office more (to stay close to Zachary) rather than meeting with clients. This means that I often work on less interesting projects and have more limited learning and career growth opportunities than my husband. Translation: Vince takes on all the interesting stuff and receives all the client recognition, too.
Stay positive about your work
Most women worry about how their new work arrangement will influence their potential to work full time in the future. I suggest that women who are struggling with this issue turn the equation around and think about this: Keeping one foot on the career track will make it that much easier for you to return to full-time work in the future. Whether you are running your own business or working part time for someone else, you are still connected to your work and the workforce. This means that if you do decide to go back full time at some point, you won't have to reorient yourself. Your skills, contacts and knowledge of the workplace will remain current, and even though you may have slowed down your career, you are still gaining valuable experience for the future.

Starting your own business
Mary Lynne worked reduced hours when her children were young and has since made the transition back to full-time work. She and her husband were both working in advertising when they had their two boys, who are now 12 and 13. Tired of a one-hour daily commute, working crazy hours and not seeing enough of her children, Mary Lynne approached her employer about job sharing. They turned her down. Within six months, she left the company and formed an ad agency with her husband, which they ran out of their home.
Balancing work and parenting
When her boys were young, Mary Lynne worked up to five hours a day (including during the kids' naps) and spent the rest of the day with her children. "I always wondered whether it was possible to have a fulfilling career, like what I was doing and still enjoy my kids while they were young," she says. "I've definitely achieved these objectives." Today she works full time, and she and her husband have a thriving 13-person firm outside of their home. They are gradually selling the business to their employees.
The importance of networking
Probably the most important thing that you can do to leave the door open for future full-time work is to stay connected with colleagues. Take time to nurture relationships with clients and colleagues if you run your own business, or coworkers and managers if you're working for a company. Wendy Hirschberg from Ernst & Young believes that these very relationships are most important to your success. She recommends that women should make time for relationship-building once they have a better handle on their new flexible work arrangement.
So while you will undoubtedly feel pressured to work through lunch at your desk or to pass on attending a daylong seminar, don't make the mistake of cutting yourself off completely. Make sure you arrange lunches with colleagues and attend industry events at least a few times a year. And don't forgo company retreats or important client functions, even if they occur on your days off.

widow(1) In word processing, the last line of a paragraph that appears as the first line of a page. Widows are considered bad form in page layout, so many word processors allow you to avoid them. When the word processor detects a widow, it can end the page one or more lines early so that at least the last two lines from the paragraph start the next page. Some word processors avoid widows by moving all the lines on the page closer together so that the last line can fit on the same page.
The converse of a widow is an orphan, the first line of a paragraph appearing as the last line of a page.

Miss Julie by August Strindberg
Book Description'There is a sordid and disgusting atmosphere,which makes the immorality of the play glaring and crude. There is the very questionable theme in these days of the relationship between masters and servants, which this play tends to undermine.' Lord Cromer, who banned performances of Miss Julie from the English stage in October 1925. It's Midsummer's Eve in the kitchen of a nobleman's house and his haughty daughter Julie flirts and plays with Jean, her father's manservant. But it's a dangerous game and once she has been seduced by him he holds the upper hand. Miss Julie, Strindberg's mighty play on power, sex and class is presented here in a coruscating version by Frank McGuinness.

We have carried out systematic experiments and numerical simulations of the adsorption on porous anodic aluminum oxide (AAO) duplex layers presenting either an ordered or a disordered interconnecting interface between the large (cavity) and small (constriction) sections of the structured pores. Selective blocking of the pore openings resulted in three different pore topologies: open structured pores, funnel pores, and ink-bottle pores. In the case of the structured pores having an ordered interface, the adsorption isotherms present a rich phenomenology characterized by the presence of two steps in the condensation branch and the opening of one (two) hysteresis loops during evaporation for the ink-bottle (open and funnel) pores. The isotherms can be obtained by summing the isotherms measured on uniform pores having the dimensions of the constrictions or of the cavities. The numerical analysis of the three different pore topologies indicates that the shape of the junction between the two pore sections is only important for the adsorption branch. In particular, a conic junction which resembles that of the AAO pores represents the experimental isotherms for the open and funnel pores better, but the shape of the junction in the ink bottle pores does not matter. The isotherms for the duplex layers with a disordered interface display the same general features found for the ordered duplex layers. In both cases, the adsorption branches coincide and have two steps which are shifted to lower relative pressures compared to those for the ordered duplex. Furthermore, the desorption branches comprise hysteresis loops much wider than those of the ordered duplex layers. Overall, this study highlights the important role played by morphologies where there are interconnections between large and small pores. © 2015 American Chemical Society. Source

Adsorption | Year: 2014
We have studied the adsorption of Ar on regular, highly-ordered alumina membranes made by anodization. The straight, non-interconnected pores have nominal diameters of 31 and 83 nm, with a relative dispersion better than 5 % in the pore size. Adsorption isotherms taken on bare membranes with pores of 83 nm present two distinct hysteresis loops. This is found to be a consequence of the fabrication procedure that yields a central circular region formed by open pores surrounded by an outer ring with closed bottom pores of smaller size, about 40 nm. For the membrane with pores of 31 nm, the difference between these pores is much smaller, about 2 nm, and this explains why the isotherms on these membranes show a single hysteresis loop as expected. Detailed real space analysis of the membranes by electron microscopy confirms the adsorption conclusions. © Springer Science+Business Media New York 2014. Source

The exposed surface area of porous materials is usually determined by measuring the mass of adsorbed gas as a function of vapour pressure. Here we report a comprehensive study of adsorption in systems with closed bottom, not interconnected pores exhibiting different degrees of disorder, produced with methods encompassing nanolithography and dry and wet etching. Detailed adsorption studies of these matrices show hysteresis loops, as found always in pores having sizes of tens to hundreds of nanometres. The observed variations in the loop shape are associated with changes in the pore morphology. In regular pores formed by vertical and smooth walls, continuous adsorption is found for the first time in agreement with thermodynamic considerations valid for ideal pores. This suggests that irregularities in the walls and pore openings are the key factors behind the hysteresis phenomenon. Interestingly, pores having rough walls but a pyramidal shape also do not show any hysteresis. © 2013 Macmillan Publishers Limited. Source

Porous anodic aluminum oxide (AAO) is characterized by a regular arrangement of the pores with a narrow pore size distribution over extended areas, uniform pore depth, and solid pore walls without micropores. Thanks to significant improvements in anodization techniques, structural engineering of AAO allows to accurately tailor the pore morphology. These features make porous AAO an excellent substrate to study adsorption phenomena. In this paper, we review recent experiments involving the adsorption in porous AAO. Particular attention will be devoted to adsorption in straight and structured pores with a closed end which shed new light on fundamental issues like the origin of hysteresis in closed end pores and the nature of evaporation from ink-bottle pores. The results will be compared to those obtained in other synthetic materials like porous silicon and silica. © 2016 Springer Science+Business Media New York Source

The TMJ Sleep Center
Sleep Apnea Treatment
Sleep Apnea; "apnea" is a Greek word that means "without breath." There are three types of apnea: obstructive, central, and mixed; of the three, obstructive is the most common. No matter the difference in the cause of each type, in all three, people with untreated sleep apnea stop breathing several times during their sleep, sometimes hundreds of times during the night and each time it can last for a minute or longer.
Sleep Apnea may or may not be evident, to the patient or to others. An apnea event has four components.
1. First, the airway collapses.
2. Second, an effort is made to take a breath, but is unsuccessful.
3. Third, the oxygen level in the blood drops.
4. Finally, when the amount of oxygen reaching the brain decreases, the brain signals the body to wake up and take a breath. (This is what the bed partner hears as a silence followed by a gasp for air.)
The most common of the three; obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a blockage of the airway. The soft tissue in the back of the throat collapses during sleep closing (obstructing) your airway. People with obstructive sleep apnea have an airway that is more narrow than normal, usually at the base of the tongue and palate. When lying flat, the palate is above the air passage. When the muscles relax, the palate and tongue can fall backwards. This obstructs the airway.
With central sleep apnea, your airway is not blocked, your brain fails to signal the muscles to breathe.
Suffering from mixed apnea, as the name veils, is a combination of the two. Your brain will alert you periodically, while the airway is obstructed consequently sleep is extremely brief and of poor quality.

FacesMessages do have a specific severity.
However, those messages are currently only designed for
failures or general notices. There's currently no way
to specify a severity for "SUCCESS" events, but programmers are facing that
problem every day and miss-use INFO or other severities for such a purpose.
I propose adding a new severity "SUCCESS" that will be accessible
Also adding required attributes to h:messages and h:message:
successClass, successStyle.
I like this idea. If you could submit a patch, that would make it easier to get
it into 2.2
Closing resolved issue out
Would be possible to reopen the issue? This has not yet been added to JSF. I think adding a SUCCESS severity would improve the overall usability of FacesMessage, because modern CSS frameworks like Bootstrap provide styling for it. It's probably easy to add, so if it helps I could write a patch for it.
Just for my understanding:
When should this message be displayed?
The existing h:message will be displayed, when an exception is thrown. I assume, you'd like to display a success message, if no exception is thrown? How shall this be triggered? Where shall the message originate from?
Or would you like to throw a FacesException to signal success?
Or could it be better to define a different tag, e.g.
<h:inputText id="param1" value="#{bean.param1}"/> <h:message for="param1" errorClass="error"/> <h:successMessage for="param1" value="ok"/>
successMessage will be displayed if no param1 got a value and no message is triggered by an exception.
Let me give an example that hopefully illustrates the difference between INFO and SUCCESS:
Let's say you have a simple payment form with bootstrap styled messages
<h:form id="paymentForm"> <h:messages errorClass="alert alert-danger" successClass="alert alert-success" infoClass="alert alert-info"/> Amount: <h:inputText value="#{paymentBean.amount}"/> <h:commandButton value="Pay" action="#{paymentBean.pay()}"/> </h:form>
And then in PaymentBean a method:
public void pay(){ try{ paymentService.doPayment(); // add a success message FacesContext.getCurrentInstance().addMessage(null, new FacesMessage(FacesMessage.SEVERITY_SUCCESS, "Payment successful.", null)); // and another info message FacesContext.getCurrentInstance().addMessage(null, new FacesMessage(FacesMessage.SEVERITY_INFO, "Your remaining balance is: " + getBalance(), null)); }catch(PaymentException e){ // add an error message FacesContext.getCurrentInstance().addMessage(null, new FacesMessage(FacesMessage.SEVERITY_ERROR, "Payment could not be completed due to an error", null)); } }
When styled with bootstrap for example the success message would appear in green, the info message in blue and the error message in red.
So the change would not require adding a new tag like h:successMessage, only an addition to the h:message(s) tags (successStyle and successClass) and adding a new Severity instance to the FacesMessage class.
Yep, understood. Thanks for clarification.
This seems to be easy to implement if accepted.
Okay, let me know if there's anything I can do to help getting this issue accepted (provide a patch etc.).

The only people who say WALL-E had a bad second half are either critics who refuse to give perfect scores and thus look for something to complain about, or people who weren't actually paying attention during the second half and dismissed it as bad because it was colorful. Two things make sure WALL-E could never be referred to as bad in the second half: the Define Dancing scene, and the ending (from Holo-Detector to the very very end of the credits).
Good call on Wedding Crashers, that always pissed me off. The Descent is a perfect example of this. The first half really surprised me with how good it was. Very claustrophobic and scary, the creatures were really scary too, up until they turned out to be stupid and pitiful. If they cut out fighting the creatures and left the girls just to turn on each other while being scared it would've been really good.
Although my wife feel asleep watching Wall-e I was glued to the screen and couldn't disagree more about the 2nd half.
What is wrong with accepting the fact humans are fat? So many right wingers freak'd on this point and I never understood what is so hard to see why this is hard to digest. 1. Lack of gravity would have some effect but more importantly as the movie points out we are a becoming a lazy, over automated society of consumers. We bitch about Wallmart and then go there after dinner to but ice cube trays…so is it that hard to really connect to the fat humans in the 2nd half?
Also, explain to me why it "breaks it's won rule" with the live action Fred Willard…just because you didn't like doesn't make it wrong nor inconstant.
I would add Casino and Saturday Night Fever to the list

Historian Cheryl Foggo brings the stories of important African-Canadians to life with her books, films and plays
How much do Canadians know about our country's black history? How many people would admit to knowing little about Viola Desmond before the campaign to choose a woman to appear on the new banknote? Most of us might say our knowledge stops at the Underground Railroad or Nova Scotia's Black Loyalists. But this country is rich with stories of African-Canadian experiences on the east coast, west coast and everywhere between. While classrooms play catch-up in diversifying history curriculums, learning the names and stories of African-Canadian men and women is a conscious effort that should no longer be set aside.
Cheryl Foggo is a playwright, historian and author who's committed to making the names and tales of African-Canadian settlers known. Based in Calgary, Foggo actively combs archives and documents recounting the lives of Alberta's black settlers. One of her projects is a documentary film about the legendary black cowboy John Ware, who was considered a hero in Alberta's ranching frontier.
We spoke with Foggo about her latest projects, Alberta's lesser-known African-Canadians and why celebrating Canada's black history is important not just in February, but year-round.
When did you first become interested in Canada's black history?
From a young age I was interested in the stories I heard my mother's family tell when we visited my grandparent's home in Winnipeg. Although I wouldn't have defined it as history at that time—it was just my Mom and her siblings and their parents talking about their lives—I found these stories interesting. As I got older, I gradually became aware of a disconnect between the history I was learning in school and what I was hearing from my family. I began to wonder why our stories were absent from the historical record.
Why do you think Canadians don't know much about our country's black history?
I think it's up to Canadians to ask ourselves this question. Even what Canadians do know about the Black Loyalists and the Underground Railroad is limited to a "happy ending" narrative and skewed away from the realities of the struggles black Canadians faced historically.
Western Canada's black history isn't widely known or taught. Share the story of one lesser-known African-Canadian and her contribution?
It's tough to choose, but I'll pick a woman from Alberta. Violet King, the first black female lawyer in Canada. She was a trailblazer throughout her life and an accomplished classical pianist. She was also the only woman in her graduating class from the faculty of law at the University of Alberta in 1953, the same class as former Alberta Premier Peter Lougheed.
King went on to work for Citizenship and Immigration Canada before becoming the first woman named to a senior management position with the American National YMCA. She also happened to be among the best friends of my mother, Pauline, and her twin sister, Pearl, and a bridesmaid for both.
In your opinion why is knowing more about Canada's diverse history so important?
A history that is incomplete is damaging. A history that is purposely incomplete is sinister. How can Canadians move into a sustainable future if we can't acknowledge our past? And how can we acknowledge and reckon with our past if our canonical history is missing pages?
What are you currently working on?
I'm working on a documentary film about the legendary black cowboy John Ware and a collection of articles and essays that will anthologize my writings about Alberta's black history.
Can you recommend some resources for Canadians who want to learn more about Canada's black history?

History of the People's Republic of China, 1949-1976 by Julia Strauss
Book DescriptionThe volume looks back to the revolutionary People's Republic of China between 1949 and 1976 from an explicitly historical perspective, using historical materials such as memoirs and archives. While there was a great deal published on the revolutionary period by political scientists when these events were contemporaneous or near contemporaneous, there is little in the field that both takes advantage of the temporal distance and perspective that we now have in combination with the range of primary materials that have come available in the last ten to fifteen years. The volume contains essays on a variety of particular subjects on the revolutionary People's Republic of China, and, unlike most of the other work on the period that has either come out recently or is in press, gives some coverage to the entirety of the period.

Great Gatsby: The Authorized Text / Edition 1by F. Scott Fitzgerald
Pub. Date: 05/30/1995
Publisher: Scribner
The exemplary novel of the Jazz Age, F. Scott Fitzgeralds' third book, The Great Gatsby (1925), stands as the supreme achievement of his career. T. S. Eliot read it three times and saw it as the "first step" American fiction had taken since Henry James; H. L. Mencken praised "the charm and beauty of the writing," as well as Fitzgerald's sharp social sense; and Thomas Wolfe hailed it as Fitzgerald's "best work" thus far. The story of the fabulously wealthy Jay Gatsby and his love for the beautiful Daisy Buchanan, of lavish parties on Long Island at a time when, The New York Times remarked, "gin was the national drink and sex the national obsession," it is an exquisitely crafted tale of America in the 1920s that resonates with the power of myth. A novel of lyrical beauty yet brutal realism, of magic, romance, and mysticism, The Great Gatsby is one of the great classics of twentieth-century literature.
This is the definitive, textually accurate edition of The Great Gatsby, edited by Matthew J. Bruccoli and authorized by the estate of F. Scott Fitzgerald. The first edition of The Great Gatsby contained many errors resulting from Fitzgerald's extensive revisions and a rushed production schedule, and subsequent editions introduced further departures from the author's intentions. This critical edition draws on the manuscript and surviving proofs of the novel, along with Fitzgerald's later revisions and corrections, to restore the text to its original form. It is The Great Gatsby as Fitzgerald intended it.

This is a wonderful book. It will keep you entertained for hours
What a great read! really enjoyed it. It was very easy for me to connect to the characters
if you like books from this era then the great gatsby is a no brainer. While i have all the works of F Scott Fitzgerald this is by far my favorite. And when i saw the NookBook for only 99 cents it was undeniable!!
It is just timeless. Think of Out of Africa, Dr. Zhivago, stories that capture the human condition. Drawn to it by Midnight in Paris. Thanks Woody. No good reason why I hadn't read before, despite the many I could advance. Hardcover all the way.
The Great Gatsby does symbolize much more than what the anonymous man said. It symbolizes not only one of the major flaws of human beings, but the greatest test for us as well; honesty. Jay gatsby lived a lie and in the end died a lie as well. The book tells a lot about society and is very educational. It is overall a great book if you analyze it the wat Fitzgerald would want u to.
I had heard this was a great book. One friend told me it was her favorite book ever so maybe my expectations were too high heading into reading it. However, I didn't enjoy it at all. It was a very well written book but the story was just not very interesting and entertaining. The story is told through Nick Carroway but the main character is really Jay Gatsby. It's an interesting way to write a story but I thought Nick Carroway was boring with very little personality. He was just a shell of a character to tell the story through. While Gatsby had a mysterious quality to him, you could never really grasp his mysteriousness fully because fitzgerald didn't fill in the details about his life. Some people may find it intersting others may not. I didn't because it was hard to visualize Jay Gatsby. As a result, I was left with a bland character telling a story which centered around a mysterious individual that I couldn't even really picture in my head. That coupled with the story which to me was as boring as Nick Carroway (probably partly because it's told through his perspective) left me with an average book that I did not find entertaining. The only interesting part to me was Gatsby's mysteriousness but in the end that story never fully develops. But of course it all comes down to opinion. If your looking to read an entertaining story with an intricate and dynamic plot, this probably isn't the best book to read in my opinion of course. If your looking for a well written book that flows as good as it was written then you would probably enjoy this book. Fitzgerald did a great job of writing the book, to me the story itself just wasn't worth the read.
This novel easily holds its own as the best the 20th Century produced. The use of the first person narrator ensures that we actually have to think for ourselves as readers -- is the entire story biased by Nick's perceptions? Also succeeds in exploring the dark side of the American dream -- how we can reach for success and come so close and then lose everything (or gain it all but be morally bankrupt). This edition is good for anyone doing a textual study of the novel since it includes extensive notes that indicate emendations to the text Fitzgerald and his editor made. If you have not encountered this novel before now, you must experience it. Don't let the language trip you up -- remember when this was written. If you expect it to read like the latest Grisham or King, you will be let down. Relax, it isn't Shakespeare either. This is reading that takes some effort. You could use the exercise.
Cat hat sat
I was supposed to read this book in high school, but i didn't. With all the hype from the new movie and all, I decided to give it another try. I finished it, and honestly, found it to be quite forgettable. Not bad, just... meh.
Real life. People are just like this story weather rich or poor. People want want want. Love and life. Human nature and its our nature to judge. Will never win. Do as you wish and hope for the best....love away!
Now I see why this book is considered a true American classic, and I completely agree with that. The book is an amazing novel that captures the early 1900s with amazing accuracy of the period of time. If you enjoy American literature & history it's definitely a must read. The writing of F. Scott Fitzgerald was exquisite and the higher class of America is excellently portrayed. Fitzgerald's characters will make you question yourself, way of thinking and ethics as they become enthralled in the drama that surrounds them all. This novel is amazing for discussions and will have to become a permanent fixture in your life after reading it once. I have to admit that this realistic story will make you think more before you analyze the theme & the whole tale. It is a true classic that everyone should read. Who is an adult or coming of age to adult way of thinking. I remember long ago that I try to read the book in my early preteen and I didn't quite understand until now in my adulthood.
My ebook was disjointed with hyphens everywhere. Every sentence was a new paragraph. There were not chapters. Impossible to read. I did an online chat with BN. After the rep looked at the mess I was reading, she immediately gave me a refund. Maybe they have it fixed now. Mine was $.99.
I failed to realize that i only purchased a sample. It was not clear at all that this was only a sample. What a disappointment and i fail to see the reasoning in charging so much for the actual book and found it ridiculous to charge for a sample.

Newcastle Council to apply for special rate variation
A move by Newcastle Council to apply to raise rates above the pegging limit has been labelled as "ambush management".
The Independent Pricing and Regulatory Tribunal (IPART) last week announced the rate pegging limit would be capped at two-point-three per cent for next financial year, down from three-point-four per cent.
Council general manager Ken Gouldthorpe says this was unsustainable for councils.
The council last night voted to notify IPART of its intention to apply for a special rate variation.
But Labor councillor Tim Crakanthorp says too many services have been slashed in the last year to justify asking Novocastrians for more money.
"I think it's another case of ambush management," he said.
" We had documents presented to us that we should have received in previous briefings.
"We got a whole lot of verbal information that we've got to absorb and then vote.
"We should have all that material prior.
"There's a real issue of trust here.
"We had the last IPART rate rise where money was going to go into the art gallery and other projects and it hasn't."
Councillor Crakanthorp says it is absurd to even consider such an option when similar promises have already been broken.
"It is a matter of trust and we haven't done the Hunter Street redevelopment, that was part of our IPART rate increase and we haven't done the redevelopment of the art gallery," he said.
"So we've got to develop that trust with the rate payers before we go and ask for more money.
"We need a lot more information and material presented to us before we go down that path."

Cryan, Thiam Earn Failing Marks One Year Into Bank Overhaulsby and
Cryan scores higher on communication, Bloomberg survey finds
Credit Suisse's Thiam gets better marks for strategic thinking
John Cryan and Tidjane Thiam received failing grades a year into their jobs in an informal survey of investors and analysts that reflected doubts about their ability to turn around two of Europe's biggest banks.
Cryan, the chief executive officer of Deutsche Bank AG, was viewed more favorably than Thiam, his counterpart at Credit Suisse Group AG, winning higher marks on communication and execution, according to the June survey of 11 investors and seven analysts who follow both companies. Yet Thiam, a former McKinsey & Co. consultant, had a better score on strategic thinking.
"There's some light, but a lot more shadow," said Boris Boehm, who helps manage 2.2 billion euros ($2.4 billion) at Aramea Asset Management in Hamburg. "I'm not optimistic on their goals."
The doubts are reflected in the banks' shares, which lost more than half their value in the past 12 months, compared with the 43 percent drop in Bloomberg's European banks index. Deutsche Bank trades at about a third of its tangible book value, meaning investors view its assets as worth less than its accounts indicate. Credit Suisse trades at about half of tangible book.
To start reversing that slide, the CEOs will have to show their strategies to cut costs and improve profitability are bearing fruit, the respondents said, even as Britain's decision to quit the European Union threatens to worsen an already tough environment for banks.
Their challenges were daunting from the start, and neither CEO promised a speedy turnaround. Both replaced long-serving executives who failed to decisively overhaul their securities units even as rising capital requirements and record-low interest rates ate into profitability. Both also took immediate steps to bolster capital buffers -- Cryan by suspending the dividend and Thiam by selling stock.
"Credit Suisse now has more CET 1 capital than ever before in its recent history," the Zurich-based lender said in an e-mailed comment. "We have rapidly and massively reduced the level of risk in our investment bank and have taken decisive measures to lower costs. We are aware that our share price is dependent on the successful execution of our strategy over the long term and we are working consistently to achieve this."
Deutsche Bank declined to comment on the survey. At a conference in New York in late May, Cryan told investors that Deutsche Bank is "correcting some mistakes that have been made over the past 20 years or so," and that if the company fails to make a profit this year, that could actually be a hallmark of success in working through its restructuring and legal matters.
Chairmen Backing
The two CEOs have been publicly endorsed by the chairmen who hired them. Credit Suisse's Urs Rohner told Handelszeitung that Thiam is "the right man for the job" earlier this week. Deutsche Bank's Paul Achleitner has made similar comments about Cryan, who received the backing of 98.5 percent of votes cast at Deutsche Bank's annual shareholder meeting in May.
Cryan, who inherited Europe's largest investment bank, laid out plans in October to cut jobs, risky assets and clients at the securities unit. His candor in describing Deutsche Bank's challenges found favor with some respondents, even if the firm's business model was viewed as problematic.
Deutsche Bank staff say the company has made progress in the last year in communicating transparently, providing greater accountability and simplifying processes and systems, according to results of a survey the company published on Friday. Still, fewer employees feel committed to the lender than they were a year earlier, with less than half saying they are proud to work at the firm, according to the findings.
Thiam, 53, won plaudits early on for pledging to focus on Credit Suisse's wealth management business while shrinking the investment bank. Yet the risks at the securities business surfaced when it lost about $1 billion on illiquid debt holdings. Thiam drew criticism for his communication on the day the losses were announced.
Understanding Clients
"I'm totally unhappy with these guys," said Martin Wilhelm, founder of IfK GmbH, which manages 600 million euros of fixed-income securities, including bank bonds in Kiel, Germany. "I get the impression that they're too focused internally, just running their businesses from the top, and that they don't understand their clients."
((The survey was conducted during the month of June, with most responses received before Britain's referendum on EU membership. Bloomberg contacted analysts with a cross-section of ratings on the firms, and both equity and debt investors. They were asked to rate the CEOs' performances on the following key topics: Strategic thinking; execution; communication; ability to change his institution's culture; and the chances he will succeed in turning around the investment bank.))
