The Luxury Visionaries 2016
"I still don't get into some shows. I can't get into Balenciaga to save my life. Business of Fashion is still in a way an upstart."
Standing on the terrace of the 16th-century Forte di Belvedere in Florence, Imran Amed is looking out over St Mark's cathedral in the city below and the Tuscan hills beyond. He has been in Florence for three nights already, reporting on the comings and goings of the Pitti Uomo menswear shows, which take place here twice a year. As the editor-in-chief of the website Business of Fashion, Amed is usually to be found in Paris, Milan, New York, São Paulo or Beijing, hot on the heels of the next big fashion story. Last year he went to 25 countries, travelling for 150 days of the year.
While he was in Florence BoF launched its latest project, a "menswear hub" in partnership with the Florentine fashion trade body Pitti Immagine. BoF became a co-host for the week's events; and Amed was everywhere, from a photo opportunity with the Italian prime minister and the key CEOs, to this evening's dinner by the Florence-based fashion house Ermanno Scervino. There he is on the top table with the designer Daelli Ermanno and the company CEO Toni Scervino, alongside the editor of Italian Vogue, Franca Sozzani, and the guest of honour, Kanye West, who only months ago had married Kim Kardashian in this very venue.
Before he sat down for dinner, Suzy Menkes, the doyenne of fashion editors, stopped Amed to ask if he would help her with her Instagram feed, which had developed a technical tangle. Amed attentively helped Menkes, swiping and flicking away confidently on her iPhone until he had sorted out her problem. He had only recently interviewed her for his series of videos talking to insiders about their work – Menkes's first interview since leaving her post at the International New York Times to take on the role as international editor, a roving reporter for Condé Nast.
Amed's rise to fashion's top table has been a rapid one. He started his blog, about the business behind the fashion industry, in 2007 from the sofa in his flat in Notting Hill. "For the first six years I invested my own money," he said. "At first, it was only $100 to set up a Typepad blogging account. Then, over the years, I invested in tech development, web design, branding, salaries for my team, etc." He did not take any outside capital until February 2013 when he received investment of $2.5 million, led by Index Ventures (Asos, Net-a-Porter and Etsy), LVMH and Carmen Busquets, who was a founding investor in Net-a-Porter. A key part of the investment was the understanding that BoF retained editorial independence. In May, for example, he was flown to Shanghai to interview Michael Kors, which was live-streamed on to the site. "Other journalists who were invited were not able to ask about his bankruptcy in the early 1990s or Project Runway, but as these were key parts of his story I did ask about it," Amed said. "Most of the brands understand that it is in their interest for the content to be authentic and independent in order for it to have credibility."
The website has 1.6 million followers who can access daily news and features on the world of fashion, written by Amed and a handful of writers he employs in his small central London office and by contributors from his global community. Access to all of his content is free; in return for registering, viewers are sent a daily digest of key stories aggregated from other publications around the world. Until recently Amed chose these himself, sifting through the world's media for stories that caught his eye. Forty per cent of BoF's traffic comes from the UK, 40 per cent from America and 20 per cent from Asia.
Most recently, Amed started a careers platform, a global job shop where companies can pay to post job vacancies including everything from a regional shop manager for Ermenegildo Zegna in Singapore to a global head of PR and brand communications at Net-a-Porter in London, and a digital marketing intern at Victoria Beckham in London. Within weeks of launching, Amed told me he received queries from 150 fashion companies from 15 countries around the world wanting to join the BoF Careers community with their own company's page detailing everything you would ever need to know about the company. The designer JW Anderson has just joined (anyone know an ace garment technologist?), and Condé Nast has also confirmed that it will be using BoF to advertise its jobs worldwide. "As a stand-alone product, and at current rates of signup, BoF Careers will be profitable in its first year," Amed said, "more than covering the initial investment of setting it up." Anya Hindmarch has already entrusted her entire recruitment process to BoF. "The success of Business of Fashion is that it speaks to both the right and left brain," Anya Hindmarch said, "both creativity and business. It is the first thing I read every morning without fail, before I even see my children, I am ashamed to say. As a consequence of it being so widely read, it now not only reports on the fashion business, but it actually sets the agenda. What's ironic to me is that he has created a global guide to the industry's top players [BoF 500] – but now a key person is missing from that list: him."
Amed's HQ is in a hidden alley at the back of Carnaby Street up a few flights of stairs. It is a compact, anonymous white room lined with desks at which are seated his core team of 11. This is not a fancy office filled with bowls of sweets, ping-pong tables and state-of-the-art furniture. The team work in close proximity to one another. When I visited towards the end of the day one Thursday no one looked as if they were about to go home. But Amed has managed to attract some serious talent. There is a barrister who decided what he really wanted to do was journalism and spent almost two years interning at other publications before eventually landing a job. The community manager who looks after social media is Antonia Asseily, who is ex-Burberry, another digital pioneer in the fashion industry. His latest recruit is Walter Badillo, who previously worked at AOL and joined as chief technology officer. Amed's own desk is adjacent to that of his right-hand man, Arsalaan Hyder, who is the head of business development and operations and was his roommate at McGill University in Montreal in the 1990s.
The back-end technical stuff is done by a small team of coders in Slovenia who helped develop BoF's own technology that allows the site to pull in content from across a company's social media platforms, giving a dynamic collage of images and posts from its Twitter, Instagram, Pinterest and Tumblr accounts. This gives a snapshot of all social media happening around the company or individual at any one time.
Imran Amed's route into the fashion world was by no means typical. A geeky child he was interested in fashion up to a point. He would go shopping with his parents and sister, and they would ask his opinion on what suited them. At university he got a job in Gap. He didn't buy Vogue but he liked shopping and was interested in retail and would watch Tim Blanks reporting from the shows on the Canadian television programme Fashion File.
Amed's mother was born in Tanzania in the foothills of Mount Kilimanjaro, his father was from Kisumu in Kenya. They moved to Canada in 1974 to escape the troubles in their adopted home of Nairobi. "They moved from the middle of summer in Nairobi to the middle of winter in Calgary," Amed said. "They had to build a whole new life." His mother studied for a second degree and then became a teacher and a headmistress at a private school. His father was an architect. "They worked really hard. My mum is one of those natural born charismatic leaders." Amed remembers his father's drawing board in their basement where together they designed a house, which didn't get built because his parents decided to move back to Nairobi in 1995.
"Education was something my parents always put a lot of emphasis on," he said. "It was naturally in me, and my sister is equally driven. She is a paediatric endocrinologist. She's become very well known in her field, which is obesity in young children. So I think, yes, we were raised in a certain way to have goals, to work hard to get the best education we could have."
Amed's childhood was filled with opportunities. "In the daytime I was studying at school and in the evenings I was a stage kid. I was trained in theatre and public speaking. I was a really active kid." He would wake at 4am every day to do his maths homework. For three years as a teenager, he took part in the international Junior Achievement scheme for young entrepreneurs. "You basically set up a company, sell shares and create a product," he said. The first year, despite his inexperience, Amed managed to get himself elected as president of his group's company who together decided to make decorated jars filled with sweets. "They were great Christmas gifts. We sold them for $5 each and we had to figure out a marketing strategy, a distribution strategy, we had to sell shares." He remembers his company made a profit. "Not a lot of money but I was interested in entrepreneurship."
Amed studied business at McGill University. After graduation, in 1997, he got a job at a French consultancy firm that was part of Deloitte & Touche, and two years later transferred to London. He stayed for eight months while applying to go to business school. In his first year at Harvard he landed an internship at the London-based management consultancy company McKinsey, where he took a job after graduation and was on track for a textbook successful career. His job required him to travel to Johannesburg to work with a South African bank to redesign their mortgage approval process, or to Australia to work as part of a big property company, or the Netherlands in a pharmaceutical company.
As he was about to turn 30 he had reached a point of complete exhaustion. "I was losing weight, getting pains in my chest." McKinsey gave him a three-month sabbatical. A friend mentioned a type of meditation called Vipassana, he looked it up and decided to take himself on a 10-day silent retreat to a Vipassana meditation centre in a forest in South Africa. "It's the most intense thing I've ever done," he said. "You have to sit in complete silence 10 hours a day. You are with 40 other people but you have no engagement with them. It's really basic accommodation. I was sharing with another guy and you're not allowed to talk." By the end of the 10 days he had cleared his mind of all the excess noise, and it had changed his life. "McKinsey is a place where you only exercise your left brain. The only creative outlet I had was my PowerPoint slides."
He quit his job and started a small business incubator helping fledgling fashion companies set up in London. It lasted eight months and was his first real failure. "I remember sitting there in the office one night thinking, 'What am I going to do now?'" He got a consulting job with LVMH, and started to teach fashion students at Central Saint Martins about how to set up in business. (He continues to teach at CSM.)
Amed had always kept a journal, and in January 2007 he started writing BoF, sending his daily observations and links to interesting stories to his network of about 100 friends and family around the world. "We started building this community of people: global, interested in digital and technology, they love fashion and have strong opinions about it." Amed noticed the emergence of other blogs. "I met Diane Pernet that year [her blog A Shaded View on Fashion was started in 2005 and now has almost 21,000 Twitter followers] and I met Susie Bubble. She started in 2006, around the same time as Scott Schuman with his visual blog, the Sartorialist. I didn't have a plan initially. [BoF] was more for me to make sense of the things I was interested in."
In the beginning Amed and his fellow bloggers had to wangle their way into shows. "I didn't get invitations, people would sneak me in." He remembers somehow getting into the Zac Posen show in New York through four layers of security. His first proper invitation came from Oscar de la Renta. It turned out that the CEO, Alex Bolen, had discovered BoF and was reading it every morning. Bolen reserved a seat for Amed next to him on the front row. But "I still don't get into some shows," he said. "I can't get into Balenciaga to save my life. We are still in a way an upstart."
The fashion world is a tribal one. You either have to be born into it or just know the right people (which, of course, Amed has become a master of). But it is not an easy world to penetrate. "It wasn't a world I was familiar with at all. I was always an observer. That outsider's perspective is always going to be there – part of what's resonated with people about BoF is that it is a different perspective. And that is the heart of what we do now, we have to maintain that." He thinks of himself as an analyst and a chronicler. But ultimately, he's still the same kid who liked getting up early to do his homework. "I'm a nerd," he said, laughing. "It's still the beginning, there's still a lot more to do."
"I always need to be connected," Amed says. He has two phones – an iPhone 5S and a slightly bigger android Samsung Galaxy S5 (what he describes as a "phablet", a phone and a tablet combined). "I'm all into using multiple gadgets right now," he says. He likes the Galaxy Note because it takes "amazing pictures" for his Instagram feed, but he couldn't leave home without his iPhone. "This is what keeps me connected to 1.7 million people, this is how I built BoF, through a device like this. I can't live without it."
The other technology he relies on includes his iPad mini, which is on his bedside table. "It's what they call a lean-back experience. Not for sending emails, more about consuming." His regular iPad is good for showing presentations to clients. Then he has an Apple MacBook Air and at his home and his office, a big-screen iMac for when he is working, writing or looking at videos. "Every device has its purpose," he says.

Apple is considering taking the Netflix route, by producing its own original content for its rumoured pay TV platform, according to reports on Friday.
The Street's sources (via Apple Insider) say Apple is talking to Hollywood studios over plans to invest in production, enabling the firm to offer shows exclusively to customers.
Talks have been ongoing for a year, according to the report, but Apple has yet to sign any agreements.
If the report is reliable, it appears Apple wishes to make the deals in time to announce the pay TV service alongside the iPhone 7 in September. Naturally, production will take longer.
The news comes with reports of Apple's continued frustration at its inability to agree content deals with content providers for a so-called "skinny bundle."
Networks and rights owners are apparently unwilling to unbundle channels in order for Apple to provide the $30 a month, no commitment, contract-free streaming package.
See also: Apple TV (2015) review
Apple creating its own content would not only lessen the reliance on the media conglomerates like Disney and Fox, it would also allow the company to offer an 'exclusive' hook.
The strategy has worked very well for Netflix, which has enjoyed success with its original shows like Orange is the New Black, House of Cards and Making A Murderer.
Rumour has it Apple had originally planned to launch the service alongside the new Apple TV set top box, which went on sale at the end of October.

Harry - PaybackMature
"Should we follow them into the van?" Flossie asked, Si and A had been taken by the young officer into the van. I watched as they climbed in and began to talk; it didn't look like they wanted us there.
"We'll let Silas handle it," I mumbled, "he's good like that,"
"Well what should we do?" she asked, I didn't reply as I saw Angel saunter out the restaurant smiling happily. I gritted my teeth together and narrowed my eyes, that girl was seriously messed up, "Harry…why are you shaking?" Floss asked, I noticed my hands were balled into fists and they were shaking with the tension. I relaxed,
"That girl," I spoke through my teeth, she was far enough away not to have heard but she took one last look towards the van and laughed to herself. That was enough; I pulled my hood up and made my way towards her,
"Harry?!" Flossie hissed,
"Stay there," I commanded, "don't follow me," she obey, probably from the tone of my voice, I followed Angel along the street-lit road, she was almost skipping with happiness, I didn't understand why she had accused Silas of abuse or harassment. I stood my ground until Angel turned into an alley way which hadn't any street lights, I made sure my hood covered up most of my face and made my move. I grabbed the back of Angel's collar and dragged her towards the wall where I pushed her up against it; her face was pushed against the cold brick wall.
"Oh God," I heard her mumble, "I don't have any money on me, you can check my pockets, all you'll find is a phone," she cried,
"I don't want your money," I made sure my face stayed out of view and I kept my voice gruff,
"I'm stronger than I look," she growled,
"I highly doubt that,"
"Just…you…wait…" she began to struggle, but I held her fast, "What do you want?" she asked angrily with a little hysteria in her voice.
"Sexual harassment isn't a joke," I warned her, "it does happen, and has very serious implications,"
"You're not going to rape me are you?" she asked terror in her voice,
"No," I said calmly, "you're not worth it," I grabbed her collar again and pushed her to the floor, "don't come looking for trouble, because one day, it'll hit you in the face," I said darkly before walking off, once I'd rounded the alley I legged it back to the van. Flossie was sitting by its wheel, she gave me the 'where-have-you-been?' look, and I replied with the 'I'll-tell-you-later' face. We tried to listen into the conversation; Flossie sighed and stood up,
"We've got to help Silas out!" she burst,
"Shush!" I said, but it was too late, Aimee opened the window and told us to come into the van. We climbed up the stairs,
"I can promise you with my life that Silas would never harass anyone," Flossie said as soon as she sat down, "so don't listen to that Angel girl, she's lying,"
"I'm not here to sort out whatever issue you had in the restaurant," the officer said sternly, Flo gulped,
"Why are you here? We've all got driver's licences and permission from our parents," she smiled trying to ease the tension, Si gently put his hand on her knee and she was quiet.
"So what should we do?" A asked,
"I'm going to do my job and take a nap," she informed us, "I'll be here in the morning and we'll talk again then, in the meantime I suggest we move away from this restaurant and find a safe, legal place to park for the night,"
"Okay, thank you for your help," Si shook her hand and she smiled back at him,
"Pleased to help," she left the van and got into her police car; Silas silently got into the driver's seat and started the engine.
"Who's going to explain and when?" I asked,
"I will and now," A said coming to sit next to me, she began to talk about the death we'd witnessed and how the police were trying to cover it up. Two minutes later A's voice became slower and slower,
"And Lou…she is…" A's head lulled onto my arm and she didn't move, Floss giggled,
"Someone's tired,"
"It's what happens when you drive all day and night," I smiled, Floss got up and went to find the rest of the story out from Si. The curtains dividing the front and back were closed and we were left alone, I watched A's sweet sleeping face and had a strange urge to put my arms around her. She looked beautiful when she slept and all her muscles relaxed, you could see her high cheekbones and long eyelashes. I let my head bow above hers and I inhaled the smell of fruity shampoo, without really thinking what I was doing my lips pressed against her forehead and I hovered there for a moment, her eyes fluttered and I pulled back.
"Did you just kiss my head?" she asked astonished,
"No," I muttered,
"I felt something!" she told me,
"You had a… bug on your face; I got it off for you,"
"With your lips? What? Did you like suck it off?" she smiled,
"I didn't kiss you…alright?" I said defensively, I didn't know why I didn't want to admit I had kissed her,
"Alright!" she said her hands held up, "calm down," she smiled. I got off the seat and went to the opposite one,
"I think you're hallucinating, got back to sleep," she stuck her tongue out at me but did what I said, I was now a good enough distance away and so I didn't have the urge to do anything. It was strange, I had never felt this…feeling before, it was like I wanted to hold her in my arms and keep her safe. I wanted to kiss her, call her my own. 'Was I crushing on A?' I thought to myself, if I was, I had better not let the others know.

Lazzaroni famous for the traditional Amaretti di Saronno is among the oldest and most renowned Italian artisanal bakery and confectionery companies. Since the 18th century there was a "Laboratorio Lazzaroni" which produced the Amaretti di Saronno; a very precise definition: small, round and spongy candy made of bitter almonds and crushed apricot kernels, mixed with sugar and egg white, then baked in the oven, and since 1888 Lazzaroni has developed English-style cookies for tea time, crackers, filled wafers, pastries, panettoni and chocolate. Its reputation for quality is well represented by the various medals and awards won by the company.
Still keeping the old values alive - the best and most authentic ingredients, the original recipes and meticulous production methods are the secrets for a uniquely great taste.
Little pleasures every day, because eating well means taking care of yourself.

Excellent location 5 star hotel Breakfast buffet 70 francs for 2 people Used it one day then had local breakfast Nice bar in the hotel Great views from our room
Romantic getaway, booked a suite. The "king" bed was 2 twin beds pushed together, not at all comfortable. We arrived late and attempted to eat at the restaurant, which was only half full. Hostess gave us option of sitting in middle of restaurant despite several available tables that were more private. We won't be returning to this hotel for out next Luzern visit.
Wow! Modern stylish comfortable rooms, traditional lobby and fantastic concierge service = Best place to stay in Lucerne.
It is a fantastic hotel, the location is perfect, near the train station. The view from our room was outstanding, just spectacular. The people from the hotel are very helpful, it was a last minute trip and they help me to program an activity for each day. They also have a lady that goes around in the afternoon making sure you have everything you need, I think her name was Maria she spoke Portuguese. She was extremely nice and made us feel right at home. Only negative thing is that the rooms over the winter are very hot. They advise you to open the windows, but it's very noisy outside.
Nice location by the lake. Front desk staff is very nice.

TravelPod Member ReviewsCrowne Plaza Abu Dhabi - Yas Island
Best breakfast buffet of the entire trip. Comfy and modern room- best amenities of the whole trip as well. Free wifi, great pool right on the water, and the manager, Liz from Texas, was like a slice of home. Thanks for everything! Highly recommend!

Pity we did not have another couple of days.

Great fun. We went on a week during a time of the year that wasn't too busy which meant that we hardly ever had to line up for a slide. The only downer was that three of the main slides were out of action but we still had to pay the rich entry fee.

The first day we went to Yas water park in Abu Dhabi, with 43 exhilarating water rides to choose from this was not to be missed! The sun was blazing at 31 degrees so we slapped on some factor 30 and headed for the super high water flumes. Not being great with heights I was sweating as we climbed the mountains over steps to hit the extreme rides first. We jumped on a 5 man rubber dingy ride first which looked pretty tame from the beginning... how wrong could I be, this ride was insane! It was like a roller coaster on water and we were banking up the sides higher than cool runnings on a bobsleigh! It finally opened out into one of those giant space bowls and by this time we had really picked up some speed. Our dingy launched up the side to about 20ft in the air and then flew down faster than the guy jumping out of space. It was like one of them pirate ship rides from the theme park, such a laugh with 4 I your mates on it too.
The other pretty crazy ride was called Loop, it's another proper high one and at the start you climb into what looks like a time travel capsule. You're standing up right as they close the lid, press a button which counts you down, 3..2..1.. and then the floor drops beneath you. Before I get on the lifeguard says to me "this is your first time right? You won't forget this!" Nice one, just what you want haha.
He wasn't lying... When that countdown finishes you free fall into darkness at lightening speed like nothing I'd ever experienced before and then to add to it you soar into a loop the loop. If you have a second to think while you're shooting down the tube like a missile firing from a rocket launcher and wonder why the ride was called Loop, you know now!

Hello music lovers, 2007 = the 25th anniversary of my beloved band, KID CREOLE and the COCOUTS. 25 years . . . and I'm still a Kid! We have miraculously managed to survive the coming and going of many varied musical styles and trends and production techniques. Welcome to the Lifeboat Party, child. Of all our accomplishments in the last 25 years (the gold and platinum albums, the hit singles, the sell-out-record-breaking concerts, the very special private show for Princess Diana, the movie soundtracks, the acting roles, our very own television musical for Granada TV in England, the collaborations with Prince and Barry Manilow and U2 and others, working with Francis Ford Coppola and Sofia Coppola, the British Music Industry Best International Act honour and the numerous citations and awards) the thing I am most proud of is the LIVE SHOW! Described by a New York critic, a long time ago, as the "greatest show on earth after the Ringling Brothers and Barnum and Bailey - a very close second!" it is still a joy to behold, if I must say so myself. Modesty has never been my tragic flaw! I am as proud of the current line-up of musicians and singers and dancers as I was of the original line-up (the only original member still standing alongside the Kid is the inimitable Bongo Eddie - percussionist/comic foil/eternal contender for the throne).
The rhythm section (all from Denmark) is comprised of Thomas Andersson on guitar, Mikkel Damgaard on keys, Claes Antonsen on drums, Christian Danstrom on bass. The scrumptious Coconuts (all from England) are Eva Tudor-Jones, Louise Peaple and Gemma Cousins. The Pond Life Horns (from all over the world): Chris Storr on trumpet, Barnaby Dickensen on trombone and Edgar Jones on saxophone. And of course, the co-star supreme, Bongo Eddie.
That band, plus my P.A. (PERSONAL ASSISTANT), Janet Orme, who has been with me for over 22 years (yes, she's as crazy as I am) is what makes me stand tall and gives me that twinkle in my eyes, even now on our silver anniversary!
In 2007 we will do over 200 shows all over the world celebrating our survival in a fickle business called MUSIC! The cities we have chosen to play are the cities that helped launch us to international fame and fortune: London, Manchester, Glasgow, Aberdeen, Belfast, Liverpool, Paris, Geneva, Stutgart, Zurich, Copenhagen, Stockholm, Oslo, Berlin, Hamburg, Tokyo, Rome, New York, Los Angeles, Philadelphia, Washington, Boston, Madrid, Barcelona, ..................
The first time we played many of these cities was in 1982! The adoring fans gave us the inspiration and the impetus to continue. We owe them this token of of gratitude and appreciation - another mighty show to blow their minds yet again. We love our fans - their loyalty through the years (lean and fat) has been touching - deep and profound and most imprtantly energizing!
Even while the tour is going on we will be recording our 20th album, called BOGOTA AFFAIR (5 years in the making!) and producing an act called SON-OF-KONG (their album, called I.V. LEAGUE will be available in the spring; it is co-produced by original Creolian songwriter/keyboard wizard Peter Schott). After a long, much-needed vacation off the coast of me, we will begin production on the COCONUTS SOLO ALBUM , tentatively called JAILBAIT. And oh, by the way, this year you can also catch our documentary, written and produced by the original MAMA COCONUT, Adriana Kaegi as well as view the live show, filmed at London's JAZZ CAFE, on line
Oh what a world! I'm glad I'm a survivor. And I'm glad you still enjoy the music. That makes me smile and tip my fedora and do a little slide in my two-toned shoes!
yo kid, it's the one and only Johnny A from Philly Elaine's husband.
We send our love You are missed. Why have you abandoned us and stopped touring on the East coast. My Nieces ask for you all the time
Ashley will be 21 this month. Smart and beautiful. Ariele just turned 17 tall and beautiful. They still have your autographed pixs in their rooms.
A day does not go by when I don't lsten to some KC&C. Drop me a line to my e mail
firstname.lastname@example.com. Put something in the email so I know it's you send contact info and I'll send mine. Say hell to Eddie and the Cocco's.
Hope to hear from you
Saw the band at Newmarket Races last night (June 19th, 2009) and you guys stole the show.
Our 21 year old daughter and her boyfriend knew none of the bands and they commented how much better you were than anything else on the bill!
Great performance - got me and my lady movin' and those Coconuts are as hot as ever!
Keep up the good work!

Last month, The Community Bank of Bridgeport, Connecticut became the first and only bank to fail in 2013 without finding a buyer. Thousands of other banks, however, have found ways to survive.
Glen Jammaron, the president of Alpine Banks in Western Colorado, runs one of those banks. In his case, the bailouts that some have criticized kept his bank running through the recession and weak economic recovery. In 2009, he was able to secure a portion of the $204.9bn of funding from the government provided through the Troubled Asset Relief Program, or Tarp.
Jammaron says Tarp has helped his bank survive the financial crisis. So far, Alpine Banks, consisting of 36 branches with $2.5bn in assets, has paid back over half of the Tarp funds it received in 2009. At the moment, the plan is to pay back the rest by the end of next year, said Jammaron.
Jammaron is not alone when it comes to owing Tarp funds. There are 113 small to midsize banks that have yet pay back about $2.7bn in Tarp funds.
Many bankers in charge of small banks say the deck is stacked against them. Regulation is a common adversary; small banks say they feel the costs of compliance with banking regulations more keenly than giant banks with well-funded staff.
John Buhrmaster, President of First National Bank in Scotia, NY says that it's surprising that any really small banks actually make it. First National Bank in Scotia, NY is in its 90th year with 10 branches and $400m in assets.
"I don't know how small banks, say $35m in size, can meet regulatory guidelines and still make ends meet," says Buhrmaster. "We are a fifth-generation bank and even for us the regulatory burden is overwhelming. "
Small bankers do not consider their brethren to be JP Morgan Chase or Bank of America. The banking industry should really be divided into two different industries, says Buhrmaster, who complains, "the big banks, they are supported by the government. It would be nice to compete on an equal playing field."
"There are the too big to fail, too big to jail banks and no one in management is held accountable. And then there are small banks, where management is held accountable and the charges are 20 times more punitive for them. You have one industry where they operate above the law. And then you have us, where our business is based on relationships, not transactions. And we are still painted with the same brush in these regulations and we have to fight hard against that."
There is no clear business model that guarantees success for small community banks. Rather, say experts like David Wheelock, vice-president and deputy director of research at the St Louis Federal Reserve Bank, these banks have to figure out what the demand is in their area – like providing car loans and insurance or processing deposits for a local casino.
To eliminate some of the regulatory burden, Buhrmaster says his bank no longer offers a debit card rewards program. "It was a good thing for our customers, but unfortunately it was something we had to eliminate," he says.
Buhrmaster's bank, however, added car insurance to its services. Consumer car loans, a booming sector of lending at large, make up about 40% of the bank's portfolio; a small proportion, or 1% of its car loans would qualify as subprime, or high-risk. First National Bank acquired an insurance company to branch out.
"We looked at it and figured that insurance was a natural fit," explains Buhrmaster.
If small banks want to succeed, they have to find their niche market or expertise, recommends Wheelock.
One mistake that a number of banks make is shifting their focus on real estate commercial lending, the way The Community Bank had.
Small banks may veer towards commercial real estate lending as a way to make more money, but they are also entering a very competitive market, says Richard Brown, chief economist at FDIC. Brown suggests that small banks should focus on niche services, like agricultural banking.
Small banks – and their customers – seem to be a threatened species. The number that's particularly worrisome for small banks is the declining number of banks insured by FDIC, which fell below 7,000 this year. The number of federally insured banks has been declining since 1984, going from 17,901 that year to 6,940 at the end of the second quarter of 2013.
The decline of small banks is nothing new.
"This number has been declining for several years," says Wheelock.
The only difference this time around is that no new banks have been created to fill the banking vacuum in communities. No new banks have been chartered since the end of 2010.
Often, community bankers place the blame on tough regulations.
"Regulators are just really tough on who they'll approve for a charter," says Chris Cole, senior vice president of Independent Community Bankers of America. The ICBA advocates for less regulation.
At the moment, Congress is not in favor with many in the small banking sector, who insist that the current regulations are unfair as they tend to lump all banks into the same category.
Yet Brown, at the FDIC, insists that the regulations have not changed. According to him, there is not enough loan demand to support new banks.
"Banking is a really competitive industry and is difficult to break into. New bankers would have to find a need," says Wheelock. He adds that the sector is also not growing because the rules and regulations are still changing.

Vigil Marks 19th Anniversary of Missing Women Case
A special candlelight vigil was held at sunset at the Victim's Memorial Garden in their honor.
Susie Streeter, her mom Sherrill Levitt, and friend Stacy McCall disappeared after Susie and Stacy's graduation.
The women vanished from Levitt's home on Delmar Street sometime in the early morning hours of June 7th, 1992.
The "Three Missing Women" case made headlines in March 2011 as cable program Investigation Discovery featured the cold case in its show "Disappeared."
"One Missing Link," a nonprofit group founded by McCall's mother Janis, hosted Tuesday's vigil. It's open to the public.
McCall's group is currently helping in the search for the missing Willard couple -- Rebecca and Rusty Porter -- who haven't been seen since mid April.

Your hotel in Kota Kinabalu
This Grade I and Grade II stretch of river is perfect for beginners. It has enough fast water to be fun and there are sections where you can learn the basics of maneuvering. However, there is nothing that would intimidate newcomers.
Whizz down the rapids and coast, swim or body raft in the deep pools. Watch the wildlife along the banks and enjoy the sensation of being outdoors and in touch with nature.
When all the fresh air and exercise has given you an appetite, a Local Buffet Lunch will be served beside the river!
You will be picked up from your hotel in an air-conditioned vehicle for your White Water Rafting – Kiulu River, Kota Kinabalu tour. The drive from Kota Kinabalu to Kiulu River takes about 1 ½ hours by road and provides delightful views of the countryside along the way.
On arriving at the river bank, you will meet your rafting guide and receive a briefing on safety procedures. All participants are equipped with safety helmets and life-jackets.
Other than the thrill and excitement of riding the rapids, white water rafting is also an opportunity to see the forests and landscape from a different vantage point.
With headwaters from Mount Kinabalu, the Kiulu River provides a Grade I to II experience and is suitable for newcomers to rafting. Grade I reaches have moving water with a few riffles and small waves. There are few or no obstructions. Grade II sections give you easy rapids with waves up to 3 feet (1m) high and wide, clear channels that are obvious without scouting. Some maneuvering will be required.
Between the rapids there are deep pools where you can indulge in body-rafting or swimming.
This river excursion is between 1.5 to 2 hours, depending on the season. You will also be served a Local Buffet Lunch by the riverside.

We departed Killarney today and set out for Dublin. Along the way though we stopped at both Blarney and Cashel. Luck was on our side and the weather was glorious again.

Data Slicing: Separating the Heap into Independent Regions
- Cite this paper as:
- Condit J., Necula G.C. (2005) Data Slicing: Separating the Heap into Independent Regions. In: Bodik R. (eds) Compiler Construction. CC 2005. Lecture Notes in Computer Science, vol 3443. Springer, Berlin, Heidelberg
In this paper, we present a formal description of data slicing, which is a type-directed program transformation technique that separates a program's heap into several independent regions. Pointers within each region mirror the structure of pointers in the original heap; however, each field whose type is a base type (e.g., the integer type) appears in only one of these regions. In addition, we discuss several applications of data slicing. First, data slicing can be used to add extra fields to existing data structures without compromising backward compatibility; the CCured project uses data slicing to preserve library compatibility in instrumented programs at a reasonable performance cost. Data slicing can also be used to improve locality by separating "hot" and "cold" fields in an array of data structures, and it can be used to protect sensitive data by separating "public" and "private" fields. Finally, data slicing can serve as a refactoring tool, allowing the programmer to split data structures while automatically updating the code that manipulates them.

Call It Sleep
1935 - ROTH, Henry. Call It Sleep. New York: Robert O. Ballou, (1935). Octavo, original light blue cloth, uncut, original dust jacket. Housed in a custom clamshell box. $2800.First edition, second printing issued one year after the first, of Roth's magnum opus, in scarce colorful unrestored dust jacket."One of the "greatest achievements of American writing this century" Henry Roth's magisterial novel about David Schearl, a young Jewish immigrant in turn-of-the-century New York, is also hailed as the finest Jewish-American novel of the age (Parker & Kermode, 181). Critic Robert Alter describes "Call It Sleep as "together with The Sound and the Fury". the fullest American assimilation of Joyce." It is a timeless work both poetic and profoundly honest in its shifting rhythms of Yiddish, English and Polish. "If David is a Jewish Ulysses,' writes Murray Baumgarten, "he is also a Yiddish Stephen Daedalus" (Wirth-Nesher, 77-8). On publication, Call It Sleep received high praise but was neglected for decades. In 1956, however, Alfred Kazin and Leslie Fielder both cited his novel at a symposium on unfairly ignored American writing, and by 1964 a new edition became a bestseller, praised by Irving Howe as a luminous work with "the quality of a dream and, if it describes a world of vivid fragments, it also evokes with relentless accuracy the gigantic fears, extreme attachments and dreadful misconceptions of childhood" (Parker and Kermode, 181). Second printing; second-state dust jacket with Minneapolis Star blurb. Text fresh and clean, light foxing, minor spine toning to original cloth; scarce colorful unrestored dust jacket with slight edge-wear, chipping to spine ends affecting "Call" and publisher's name. A highly desirable extremely good copy. [Attributes: First Edition; Hard Cover]

To analyze a video you should go back to the objectives and goals of your
lesson. Did that take place? Where is evidence of that taking place? Did
something outstanding happen that you did not expect to happen? What
benefits did you accomplish by doing the lesson this way? What went wrong?
How could you have made it better? What will you do better next time you
do the lesson? Will you use the lesson again? Why? Don't forget to quote
the kids showing where they "got it" in the lesson.
These are some of the questions you should ask yourself. While viewing the
lesson. It helps to have a vcr set up and playing while you type up the
lesson. Use your romote to pause it as you write.
Don't panic. You still have time to finish.
Good Luck.
- To those of you who are board certified: Did you all use a discovery
lab or a type of lab that generated a discrepant event? I had the
students discuss what they knew about earthquakes and tsunami taking
