In the US and the EU political incentives to oppose cross-border banking have been strong in spite of the measurable benefits to the real economy from breaking down geographic barriers. Even a federal level supervisor and safety net is not by itself sufficient to incentivizing crossborder
banking although differences in the institutional set up are reflected in the way the two areas responded to the crisis. The US response was a coordinated response and the cost of resolving banks was borne at the national level. Moreover, the FDIC could market failed banks to other banks irrespective of state boundaries reducing the cost of the crisis to the US economy and the sovereign finances. In the EU, the crisis resulted in financial market fragmentation and unbearable costs to some sovereigns.
This paper aims to identify how much of the recent current account adjustment in Spain can
be explained by cyclical factors. For this purpose, we consider the cross-country regressions
in the IMF's External Balance Assessment (EBA) methodology but allowing for country-specific
slopes and intercepts. The good fit of these regressions implies negligible residuals for most
countries, and, as a result, the positive analysis of current account decompositions provides
a more informative assessment of the external balance drivers. According to our findings,
around 60% of the 12 pp. adjustment of the Spanish external imbalance over the 2008-2015
period can be explained by transitory factors such as the output gap, the oil balance, and the
financial cycle. The remaining 40% is explained by factors such as the cyclically-adjusted fiscal
consolidation, population aging, lower growth expectations, or competitiveness gains, which
can all be considered as more permanent phenomena.
This paper investigates the foreign funding mix of globally active banks. Using BIS international
banking statistics for a panel of 12 advanced economies, we detect a structural break in international bank funding at the onset of the great financial crisis. In their post-break business model, banks rely less on cross-border liabilities and, instead, tap funds from outside their jurisdictions by making more active use of their subsidiaries and branches, as well as inter-office accounts within the same banking group.
This paper uses detailed micro data on service exports at the firm-destination-service level to analyse the role of firm heterogeneity in shaping aggregate service exports in Belgium, France,
Germany and Spain from 2003 to 2007. We decompose the level and the growth of aggregate service exports into different trade margins paying special attention to firm heterogeneity within
countries. We find that the weak export growth of France is at least partly due to poor performance by small exporters. By contrast, small exporters are the most dynamic contributors to the aggregate exports of Belgium, Germany and Spain. Our results highlight the importance of firm heterogeneity in understanding aggregate export growth.
Using an empirical gravity model, I estimate the contribution of changes in relative labor supply to bilateral migration in the 2000s and apply the resulting estimates to project future bilateral flows based on population forecasts by the United Nations. I extend the work of Hanson and McIntosh (2016) by including non-OECD destinations and project international migration flows for the whole world. In contrast to their findings, and despite of the slowdown of population growth in Latin America, the US will face sustained immigration pressures because of strong population growth in other regions of the world, leading to a projected immigrant stock that grows for decades to come. For the world as a whole, international migrants are projected to increase from 2.8% of total world population in 2010 to 3.5% in 2050, with a substantial increase of migrants originating from India and Sub-Saharan Africa.
We examine the determinants of external stress episodes through probit analysis, focusing on the role of foreign liabilities in order to build an external crisis early warning indicator for a set of selected EMU countries. We use a panel country data spanning 1970-2011 from External Wealth Dataset (Phillip Lane). Our results show that the ratio of net and gross foreign liabilities to GDP and current account balances — which measure external debt accumulation speed — are significant stress predictors, although (net) FDI liabilities seem an offset factor. Early warning indicators are based on a signalling approach and exploit panel dimension of the data to develop a country specific indicator. We find that EMU peripheral countries' external indebtedness remains higher than risk threshold, in spite of the external adjustment accumulated in the last years in some countries. This result highlights the necessity of going on structural reforms that reinforce competitiveness of these economies.
We document that the U.S. economy has been characterized by an increasingly negative business cycle asymmetry over the last three decades. This finding can be explained by the concurrent increase in the financial leverage of households and firms. To support this view, we devise and estimate a dynamic general equilibrium model with collateralized borrowing and occasionally binding credit constraints. Higher leverage increases the likelihood that constraints become slack in the face of expansionary shocks, while contractionary shocks are further amplified due to binding constraints. As a result, booms become progressively smoother and more prolonged than busts. We are therefore able to reconcile a more negatively skewed business cycle with the Great Moderation in cyclical volatility. Finally, in line with recent empirical evidence, financially-driven expansions lead to deeper contractions, as compared with equally-sized non-financial expansions.
This paper evaluates the role that sectoral comovement plays in the propagation of monetary policy shocks on the stock market. In doing so, we introduce a factor-augmented vector autoregressive model with heterogeneous regime-switching factor loadings, denoted as MS2-FAVAR, that allows us to jointly assess (i) potential changes in the degree of comovement between each sector-specific stock return and the aggregate stock market as well as (ii) the propagation of monetary policy shocks taking into account such changes in comovement. We find that the efects of monetary policy shocks on stock returns are substantially amplied when industries experience a stronger degree of comovement, suggesting that a more interconnected stock market is more prone to the propagation of monetary policy shocks. The MS2-FAVAR model is also well-suited to perform a network analysis to characterize linkages in large datasets.
This paper estimates the impact of government spending shocks on economic activity during periods of high and low uncertainty and during periods of boom and recession. We find that government spending shocks have larger impacts on output in booms than in recessions and larger impacts during tranquil times than during uncertain times. The results suggest that confidence plays an important role in explaining this differential impact.
This paper models a near-rational agent who chooses from a set of feasible alternatives, subject to a cost function for precise decision-making. Unlike previous papers in the «control costs» tradition, here the cost of decisions is explicitly interpreted in terms of time. That is, by choosing more slowly, the decision-maker can achieve greater accuracy. Moreover, the timing of the choice is itself also treated as a costly decision.
A trade off between the precision and the speed of choice becomes especially interesting in a strategic situation, where each decision maker must react to the choices of others. Here, the model of costly choice is applied to a sequential bargaining game. The game closely resembles that of Perry and Reny (1993), in which making an offer, or reacting to an offer, requires a positive amount of time. But whereas Perry and Reny treat the decision time as an exogenous fixed cost, here we allow the decision-maker to vary precision by choosing more or less quickly, thus endogenizing the order and timing of offers and responses in the game.
Numerical simulations of bargaining equilibria closely resemble those of the Binmore, Rubinstein, and Wolinsky (1983) framework, except that the time to reach agreement is nonzero and offers are sometimes rejected. In contrast to the model of Perry and Reny, our numerical results indicate that equilibrium is unique when the space of possible offers is sufficiently finely spaced.
This paper examines the evolution of the distribution of industry-specific business cycle linkages, which are modelled through a multivariate Markov-switching model and estimated by Gibbs sampling. Using non parametric density estimation approaches, we find that the number and location of modes in the distribution of industrial dissimilarities change over the business cycle. There is a relatively stable trimodal pattern during expansionary and recessionary phases characterized by highly, moderately and lowly synchronized industries. However, during phase changes, the density mass spreads from moderately synchronized industries to lowly synchronized industries. This agrees with a sequential transmission of the industrial business cycle dynamics.
This paper introduces new weighting schemes for model averaging when one is interested in combining discrete forecasts from competing Markov-switching models. In the empirical application, we forecast U.S. business cycle turning points with statelevel employment data. We nd that forecasts obtained with our best combination scheme provide timely updates of U.S. recessions in that they outperform a notoriously dicult benchmark to beat (the anxious index from the Survey of Professional Forecasters) for short-term forecasts.

This paper proposes a Markov-switching framework to endogenously identify periods where economies are more likely to (i) synchronously enter recessionary and expansionary phases, and (ii) follow independent business cycles. The reliability of the framework is validated with simulated data in Monte Carlo experiments. The framework is applied to assess the timevarying intra-country synchronization in US. The main results report substantial changes over time in the cyclical affiliation patterns of US states, and show that the more similar the economic structures of states, the higher the correlation between their business cycles. A synchronization-based network analysis discloses a change in the propagation pattern of aggregate contractionary shocks across states, suggesting that the US has become more internally synchronized since the early 1990s.

This paper investigates how taxes affect relative mobility in the income distribution in the US. Household panel data drawn from the PSID between 1967 and 1996 is employed to analyse the relationship between marginal tax rates and the probability of staying in the same income decile. Exogenous variation in marginal tax rates is identified by using counterfactual rates based on legislated changes in the tax schedule. I find that higher marginal tax rates reduce income mobility. An increase in one percentage point in marginal tax rates causes a decline of around 0.8 percentage points in the probability of changing to a different income decile. Tax reforms that reduce marginal rates by 7 percentage points are estimated to account for around a tenth of the average movements in the income distribution in a year. Additional results suggest that the effect of taxes on income mobility differs according to the level of human capital and that it is particularly significant when considering mobility at the bottom of the distribution.
I test the predictions from Duca, Montero, Riggi and Zizza (2017), who develop a customermarket model with consumer switching costs and capital-market imperfections in which price-cost markups behave countercyclically, with a subsample of European firms participating in the Wage Dynamics Network 2014 survey. I use a novel empirical approach developed by Aakvik, Heckman and Vytlacil (2005) for estimating discrete choice models with binary endogenous regressors that allows for selection on unobservables. Results show that firms subject to financial constraints had a significantly higher probability of raising markups than in a counterfactual scenario without such constraints. Moreover, the estimated partial effects for the main variables are in overall accordance with the predictions from the theoretical model.
We show that sovereign CDS that have common dealers tend to be more correlated, especially when the dealers display similar quoting activity in those contracts over time. This commonality in dealers' activity is a powerful driver of CDS comovements, over and above fundamental similarities between countries, including default, liquidity, and macro factors. We posit that the mechanism causing the excess correlation is the buying pressure faced by CDS dealers for credit enhancements and regulatory capital reliefs. An instrumental variable analysis confirms that our findings are indeed rooted in a causal relationship.
We estimate inflation risk-neutral densities (RNDs) in the Euro area since 2009. We use Euro inflation swaps and caps/floors options, and introduce a simple and parsimonious approach to jointly estimate the RNDs across horizons. This way, we obtain the implicit RND for forward measures, like the five-on-five years inflation rate, which, although it is not directly traded in the market, it is a key rate for monetary policy. Then, we discuss several indicators derived from the information content of the historical RNDs that are useful for monetary policy and compare them in the light of the ECB's decisions and communication over the last few years. Specically, the evolution of tails risks (associated with deflation and high inflation); the balance of inflation risks; measures of risk aversion from the ECB's Survey of Professional Forecasters (SPF); and how forward inflation rates react to the ECB's non-conventional monetary policies (Longer Term Renancing Operations, LTRO, Securities Market Programme, SMP, Asset Purchase Programme, APP, and its variants and extensions).
This paper estimates the GDP impact of legislated tax changes in Spain using a newly constructed narrative record for the period 1986-2015. Our baseline estimates suggest that a 1% of GDP increase in exogenous taxes depresses output by around 1.3% after one year, this negative effect fading away at more distant horizons. We also find that the effect of changes in indirect taxes are larger and that, following a tax increase, investment reacts more than consumption. Overall, our set of estimates is consistent with negative output effects triggered by tax increases, yet the quantitative effects are subject to non-negligible uncertainty that is refected in wide confidence bands, in line with the extant literature for other countries.
This paper presents a survey of output gap modeling techniques, which are of special interest for policy making institutions. We distinguish between univariate -which estimate trend output on the basis of actual output, without taking into account the information contained in other variables–, and multivariate methods –which incorporate useful information on some other variables, based on economic theory. We present the main advantages and drawbacks of the different methods.
During economic downturns, weak domestic demand developments seem to be an additional driver of exports, as firms increase their efforts to serve markets abroad to compensate the fall in domestic sales. This may constitute an additional mechanism adjustment for the euro area countries where real exchange rate variations are limited by the common currency itself and the present low inflation environment. However, this substitution effect between domestic and foreign sales could be different across euro area members. This paper uses panel data techniques to assess the role of the export structure in explaining these differences. Building a novel indicator for product concentration, the results suggest that domestic demand developments are more relevant to explain exports in countries with a lower product concentration index (that is, more diversified exports). This contributes to explain why euro area countries under stress registered different economic performance during the most recent years.
Using a panel of Spanish firms over the period 2002-2012, we investigate the interactions between high growth episodes in terms of size and productivity. We find that high growth in productivity (size) increases the likelihood of high growth in size (productivity). However, the effect from size to productivity is smaller than the effect from productivity to size. We also explore the potential role of firm-level financial constraints using information from the Central Credit Register (CIR) of Banco de España. Our results indicate that credit constraints hamper high growth episodes in terms of both size and productivity.
This paper analyses the relationship between the U.S. net external position and the exchange rate regime. I find a structural break in the U.S. net external position at the end of the Bretton Woods system of fixed exchange rates that changed both the mean and variance of the series. On average, the U.S. changed from a creditor to a debtor position and the variance of the external position increased during the floating period. This increase is to a large extent due to the valuation component of external adjustment, which accounts for 54% of the variance of the U.S. external position during the floating period but only 29% during the fixed exchange rate period. Further analysis shows that the exchange rate regime mainly affects the valuation channel of external adjustment. There is also evidence of another structural break in the U.S. external position around the time of the introduction of the euro. Finally, I document asset pricing implications from the relationship between the exchange rate regime and the external adjustment process, as external imbalances predict future exchange rate developments once the exchange rate regime is taken into account.
We propose a new VAR identification scheme that enables us to disentangle immigration shocks from other macroeconomic shocks. Identification is achieved by imposing sign restrictions on Norwegian data over the period 1990Q1 - 2014Q2. The availability of a quarterly series for net immigration is crucial to achieving identification. Notably, immigration is an endogenous variable in the model and can respond to the state of the economy. We find that domestic labour supply shocks and immigration shocks are well identified and are the dominant driversof immigration dynamics. An exogenous immigration shock lowers unemployment (evenamong native workers), has a small positive effect on prices and on public finances, no impact on house prices and household credit, and a negative effect on productivity.
Little is known about the drivers and effectiveness of personal as opposed to real loan guarantees provided by firms. This paper studies a dataset of 477,209 loan contracts granted over the 2006-2014 period by one Spanish financial institution consisting of several distinguishable organisational units. While personal guarantees are mostly driven by the economic environment as reflected in firm and bank conditions, real guarantees are mostly explained by loan characteristics. In response to higher capital requirements imposed by the European authorities in 2011, personal guarantee requirements increased signifi cantly more than their real counterparts. Our results imply that personal guarantees can discipline firms in their risk-taking, but their overuse can limit this positive effect and damage their performance.
Using a large sample of Spanish companies, this paper investigates the impact that firms' financial health has on their investment and employment decisions. The results indicate that firms' financial position is important for explaining firms' capital expenditures and their employment levels, since cash flow, indebtedness and the debt burden appear to be relevant for explaining investment and employment dynamics. Likewise, the results obtained point to a non-linear impact of financial position on these decisions, this being larger for companies in a less sound financial situation, and suggest that the role of financial factors in explaining investment and employment dynamics is likely to be greater in recessionary periods.
In this paper we use a structural VAR model with time-varying parameters and stochastic volatility to investigate whether the Federal Reserve has responded systematically to asset prices and whether this response has changed over time. To recover the systematic component of monetary policy, we interpret the interest rate equation in the VAR as an extended monetary policy rule responding to inflation, the output gap, house prices and stock prices. We find some time variation in the coefficients for house prices and stock prices but fairly stable coefficients over time for inflation and the output gap. Our results indicate that the systematic component of monetary policy in the US, i) attached a positive weight to real house price growth but lowered it prior to the crisis and eventually raised it again, and ii) only episodically took real stock price growth into account.
Using the bottom-up approach of Romer and Romer (2010), we construct a narrative dataset of net-revenue shocks for Germany by extending the tax shock series of Hayo and Uhl (2014) and coding a shock series for social security contributions, benefits and transfers. We estimate the multiplier effects of shocks to net revenues, taxes, social security contributions, benefits and transfers in a proxy SVAR framework [Mertens and Ravn (2013)] and compare them with the top-down identification [Blanchard and Perotti (2002)]. We find multiplier effects of net-revenue components between 0 and 1 for both approaches. These estimates are comparably low and we investigate the differences.
In this paper we aim at empirically testing cross-country impacts of commodity price shocks to aggregate TFP growth for a sample of emerging economies. Under a growth accounting framework, we estimate country-specific TFP growth (1992-2014) and select the attendant robust determinants by means of a Bayesian Model Averaging (BMA) approach. To identify the effects of structural shocks, we propose a Bayesian panel VAR model and calculate cyclically adjusted TFP growth net of demand shocks (i.e. output gap) and commodity prices. Our results suggest that: i) the relationship of commodity prices to TFP growth has been very high in small commodity-exporting economies (i.e. an increase of 10% in commodity prices is associated with a sizable expansion of TFP growth in a year for an average commodity exporter); ii) although our evidence is not sufficient to empirically distinguish among theoretical explanations, our results favour an interpretation that weights short-term effects of commodity prices on productivity, either through transitional dynamics to the manufacturing sector or through mismeasurement of TFP; and iii) cyclically adjusted TFP growth highlights the importance of negative supply shocks in commodity-exporting countries. All in all, much of the increase in TFP growth in the last decade was related to a favourable cyclical environment, a result with potentially significant policy implications for commodity-dependent economies.
Motivated by the failure of fiscal rules to eliminate deficit bias in the euro area, this paper analyzes an alternative policy regime in which each Member State government delegates at least one fiscal instrument to an independent authority with a mandate to avoid excessive debt. Other fiscal decisions remain in the hands of member governments, including the allocation of spending across different public goods, and the composition of taxation. We study the short-and long-run properties of dynamic games representing different institutional configurations in a monetary union. Delegation of budget balance responsibilities to a national or union-wide fiscal authority implies large long-run welfare gains due to much lower steady-state debt. The presence of the fiscal authority also reduces the welfare cost of fluctuations in the demand for public spending, in spite of the fact that the authority imposes considerable "austerity" when it responds to fiscal shocks.
Direct democracy is spreading across the world, but little is known about its effects on policy. I provide evidence from a unique scenario. In Spain, national law determines that municipalities follow either direct or representative democracy, depending on their population. Regression discontinuity estimates indicate that direct democracy leads to smaller government, reducing public spending by around 8%. Public revenue decreases by a similar amount and, therefore, there is no effect on budget deficits. These findings can be explained by a model in which direct democracy allows voters to enforce lower special interest spending.
We propose a set of new quantitative measures to characterise more fully the features of economic recoveries. We apply these measures to post-war US expansions and use cluster analysis to determine that there are two different types of recoveries in recent US economic history, with most expansions before 1984 (Great Moderation) looking quite different from those after.

Using a panel of firm-level data from Spanish manufacturers, this study shows that better service regulation reduces the price of intermediate inputs paid by downstream firms. The beneficial cost effects of services reforms extend to both large and small-to-medium sized corporations (SMEs), but the former tend to enjoy greater gains. This feature also manifests itself in international markets. We identify an input cost channel through which service regulations affect the volume of exports of large manufacturers, while the evidence of such channel is weaker for SMEs. Our estimates indicate that, from 1991 till 2007, large firms increased their volume of exports by an average of 22% as a result of the direct input cost effect of services reforms, such that the firms that benefited the most typically belonged to industries more dependent on service inputs. Furthermore, convergence to the "best practice" regulatory framework in services would have raised exports at least by an additional 10%. We conclude that firm size is relevant for the connection between services reforms, intermediate input prices and export volumes.
This paper calibrates the full social optimal inheritance tax rate derived by Piketty and Saez (2013) and shows that different assumptions on the form of the social welfare function lead to very different optimal inheritance tax rates, ranging from negative (under a utilitarian criterion) to positive and large (even assuming joy of giving motives). The paper also calibrates the optimal tax rate by percentile of the distribution of bequest received, as Piketty and Saez do, but accounting for heterogeneity in wealth and labor income. The result is that the optimal tax rate from the perspective of the non-receivers varies significantly, contrary to the constant tax rate obtained by these authors.
This paper studies the dynamics of the propagation of regional business cycle shocks in Europe and uncovers new features of its underlying mechanisms. To address the lack of high frequency data at the regional level, we propose a new method to measure timevarying synchronization in small samples that combines regime-switching models and dynamic model averaging. The results indicate that: (i) in just two years, the Great Recession synchronized Europe twice as much as the European Union integration process did over several decades; (ii) Ile de France is the region acting as the main channel for the transmission of business cycle shocks in Europe; followed by Inner London and Lombardia; and (iii) we identify a nonlinear relationship between sectoral composition and regional synchronization, which was amplified in the wake of the Great Recession. Similarities in services sectors are primarily responsible for this nonlinear relationship.
Firms' incentives to join up with other firms to apply collectively for a single loan are studied empirically in this paper. When several firms make a joint application for a single loan an association of firms is created. We identify the associations that had access to credit in Belgium over the period 2001-2011 and the firms that made up each association, observing the amount of credit that both the firms and the associations obtained from each financial institution they used. We analyse the amount of credit obtained by firms according to whether or not they belonged to an association, the likelihood of firms forming associations, the impact of belonging to an association on the amount of credit firms receive from banks and the effect of firms not obtaining any direct credit on the amount obtained by the associations formed by such firms. We also analyse whether associations formed by common-ownership firms are able to access more credit than other associations. We find that large and long-established firms are more likely to join up with other firms to make joint loan applications and that associations obtain more credit if all their members use the same bank as the association does to obtain credit. Furthermore, the lower a firm's credit over the previous year, the more likely it is to form an association to obtain credit, and we show that associations comprising small firms with no credit history are especially credit constrained.
The Arellano and Bond (1991) estimator is widely-used among applied researchers when estimating dynamic panels with fixed effects and predetermined regressors. This estimator might behave poorly in finite samples when the cross-section dimension of the data is small (i.e. small N), especially if the variables under analysis are persistent over time. This paper discusses a maximum likelihood estimator that is asymptotically equivalent to Arellano and Bond (1991) but presents better finite sample behaviour. Moreover, the estimator is easy to implement in Stata using the xtdpdml command as described in the companion paper Williams et al. (2016), which also discusses further advantages of the proposed estimator for practitioners.
Filters constructed on the basis of standard local polynomial regression (LPR) methods have been used in the literature to estimate the business cycle. We provide a frequency domain interpretation of the contrast filter obtained by the difference between a series and its long-run LPR component and show that it operates as a kind of high-pass filter, meaning it provides a noisy estimate of the cycle. We alternatively propose band-pass local polynomial regression methods aimed at isolating the cyclical component. Results are compared to standard high-pass and band-pass filters. Procedures are illustrated using the US GDP series.

We extend previous work that combines the Value at Risk approach with estimation of the correlation pattern of the macroeconomic determinants of public debt dynamics by means of Vector Auto Regressions (VARs). These estimated models are used to compute the probability that the public debt ratio exceeds a given threshold, by means of MonteCarlo simulations. We apply this methodology to Spanish data and compute time-series probabilities to analyse the possible correlation with market risk assessment, measured by the spread over the German bond. Taking into account the high correlation between the probability of crossing a pre-specified debt threshold and the spread, we go a step further and ask what would be the threshold that maximises the correlation between the two variables. The aim of this exercise is to gauge the implicit debt threshold or "prudent debt level" that is most consistent with market expectations as measured by the sovereign yield spread. The level thus obtained is consistent with the medium-term debt-to-GDP ratio anchor of 60% of GDP.

Recalled products can be identified by the "Best By" dates ranging from Aug., 5 2014 to Dec. 8, 2014 and the letters "AT."
Plum has determined that the potential spoilage may cause some pouches to swell. Out of caution, Plum is removing all pouches with affected codes.
"As a father of two, I know how it feels to want nothing but the very best for our kids and yours," said Neil Grimmer, president and co-founder of Plum Organics. "Over the years, Plum has worked hard to earn the trust of parents, and we fully intend on maintaining that trust. We are taking every action to ensure that our highest standards are being met."
Parents should not feed any of these products to their children. Consumers who have purchased affected products should contact the Plum Organics Consumer Hotline at 866-495-3774 or send an email to firstname.lastname@example.com to request a product replacement voucher.

Hunting Bucks in the Western US – go to the Grass!
Deer Biology
Grassland whitetails don't play by by woodland whitetail rules.
Once you get west of classic forest, woodland and Mid-West farmland whitetail country, you'd better be prepared to think outside of the box — because the deer you're hunting do.
In the Dakota's south to Texas and west to the Rockies, whitetails have learned how to take advantage of big, open, grassy landscapes. This keeps them thriving while eastern whitetail hunters sit in the trees wondering where all the bucks are hiding.
In the grass, folks. In the grass.
I learned this again and again and again this fall during hunts in Nebraska, Kansas and eastern Colorado. In each case we faced a grand mix of habitats: wheat, milo, alfalfa and corn fields; extensive pastures and grasslands with vegetation varying from ankle-high to head-high; brushy thickets of plum, chokecherry, sage and willows; bottomland woodlands of oak, cottonwoods, willows and cedar.
Whitetails use all of this, but we made a mistake by assuming they'd be in the thick, protective bottomland woods. Morning after morning outfitters would stick clients in stands and blinds overlooking heavily used bottomland woods. Morning after morning those clients would see does, small bucks and frustration. Meanwhile, the big bucks were enjoying peace and quiet up in the grass.
Each time we abandoned our woodland blinds and ventured into the grass, we found bucks, lots of bucks, mature bucks and big bucks. In late morning, with the sun shining bright, we scouted our first upland pasture in Nebraska and watched three 4×4 and 5×5 bucks walking right in the open. That was three more than we'd seen in 12 hours of sitting in woodland blinds.
After four days sitting in Kansas, we finally climbed out of the trees, spotted a 150-class 4×4 relaxing on a grassy ridge, stalked it and wrapped our tag around it in less than an hour.
Again in Kansas we sat on a high grassland flat 700 yards from a wheat field, thrilled as six does and fawns passed calmly at less than 200 yards, glassed eight bucks and stalked two. My friend shot one — an old, fully mature 5×6 — at 150 yards under clear skies at 10:20 A.M.
In Colorado on a lovely winter day with clear skies and light breezes, we spotted heavy antlers protruding from waist-high grass at 10 AM. My guide and I walked within 40 yards before the buck beneath those antlers jumped and ran. That deer, like most grassland bucks I've encountered over 40 seasons, fled toward the creek bottom woods. But only after we'd found him and jumped him — in the grass.
Should you ever make the pilgrimage to the Plains States to hunt, give a nod to the woodlands and brushy creek bottoms, but spend most of your time searching for mature bucks in the open grasslands. Because that's where they like to bed.

The pythons are back!
The stars of the iconic British comedy show Monty Python are set to reunite for a one-off show in London.
At a press conference on Thursday at London's Playhouse Theatre, the comedy legends John Cleese, Terry Gilliam, Eric Idle, Terry Jones and Michael Palin [founding member Graham Chapman died in 1989] put on a comic performance as they announced the details of their much anticipated show at London's O2 Arena – their first in over three decades.
"People do really want to see the old hits but we don't want to do them in a predictable way. "The danger is that the audience know the script better than we do," Cleese said.
"Yes we will be twerking or is it tweeting? We are hoping that people will have forgotten so it will all appear new!" added Idle.
At the height of their popularity in the 1970 s, the group's British TV show Monty Python's Flying Circus became a phenomenon in their homeland and a cult hit across in the Atlantic.
"We had no idea it would be such a hit in America. The fact that it s still going after 40 years is astounding," said Idle.
The project will be the first time that the group have appeared on stage together since they performed at the Hollywood Bowl in 1980, which Cleese said "was one of the most enjoyable things I ever did. That was a wonderful festival experience."
RELATED: Monty Python to Reunite
With a combined age of 357, the group joked that "there would be dancers" to stand in front of them.
"After a hip replacement and a knee replacement there are certain things I will not be doing," said 74-year-old Cleese.
The live show will take place at London's O2 Arena on July 1, 2014.

The former Sweden international played alongside both players during his two-year spell at Camp Nou between 2004 and 2006, and still keeps an eye on the Blaugrana's progress.
"Messi was only a kid back then, but already an excellent player. Anyone who says that he knew Messi would become this good is lying, though," he told El Pais. "He has skill, vision and is always in control. He is a phenomenon and deserves every award that he wins.
"However, Xavi is the soul of the club in my opinion. He never misses a pass. He plays in a very difficult position and doesn't score many goals. He is the key to Barcelona's success, though."
The 41-year-old, who scored over 170 league goals for Celtic, then went on to discuss the upcoming Champions League clash between the Hoops and Barca, and feels the Blaugrana are vulnerable at the moment due to their injury troubles at the back.
"Right now you can upset Barcelona a little because they are without Carles Puyol and maybe Gerard Pique too," he said. "Daniel Alves has only just come back so it is not the back four that Barca would prefer to have.
"You saw it in the first game at set pieces they were a little bit short and there is no doubt that they are missing Pique and Puyol who are used to competing in the air."
Celtic was beaten 2-1 by Barca at Camp Nou two weeks ago thanks to a last-gasp Jordi Alba goal.

Outreach efforts to help stop the violence in Pleasantville include a twist on tailgating.
Before the Junior Youth Football game that pits the Pleasantville Jokers against their rival the Atlantic City Dolphins in November, there will be a cookout akin to those that began in Atlantic City last year.
The goal, organizers said, is not only to engage the community with law enforcement but to make sure the rivalry — which has sometimes led to problems — stays on the field.
Neighborhood walks and barbecues in Atlantic City are part of an effort by the Coalition for a Safe Community during a summer that has seen a decrease in violent crime. Borrowing from Atlantic City, Pleasantville is now looking at similar ventures.
"We learn from each other," Pleasantville Mayor Jesse Tweedle said Friday, following a coalition meeting that discussed bringing the programs to his town. "We want to show people that Atlantic City and Pleasantville will always work together. This is how a community is supposed to be."
Last year, Dewane Parker — head of security for Atlantic City's schools — began the barbecues as a way to "Stop the Silence" of people not sharing information with police out of fear and distrust. Then, Stop the Violence of Atlantic County — now working as the coalition — began weekly walks to help get residents involved and show that leaders care about the violence plaguing those neighborhoods.
"The bottom line is to try to get the community interacting more with police," Parker said, adding that residents and police have shared information at both the cookouts and the walks. "You have to make sure the police department, the fire department, all law-enforcement engage with the community."
It's up to the officials to "break the ice," he said.
Officials such as acting Atlantic County Prosecutor Jim McClain and county Sheriff Frank Balles — a former Pleasantville police captain — are good at helping with that, said Tweedle, who also credited Parker.
"He has done a lot on his own, and now we're reaping the benefits of what he's done," the mayor said.
There will be two cookouts in town, beginning with one from 1 to 4 p.m. Sept. 21 at Walnut Park. The second will be from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. Nov. 26, before the 2 p.m. Dolphins-Jokers game.
"I think this really enhances our program," said Clark Hughes, president of the Junior Jokers Athletic Association.
Also helping the program is a surprise donation by Gary Field, owner of Gary's Restaurant in town, who offered to pay the $810 it will cost for that game's officiating crew. Usually, that money comes from concessions. But since the pre-game food will likely cut into those profits, Field decided to help out.
"I want to do that for the kids," he told the group.
His restaurant also will donate burgers and hot dogs for the first cookout.
"You can see the excitement in the air," Tweedle said after the meeting. "We're establishing a relationship. We're establishing a trust in one another."
The next Atlantic City cookout is from 1 to 4 p.m. Wednesday at the Uptown Complex at 323 Madison Ave. About 1,300 people attended the last cookout, on New York Avenue, Parker said.
Other programs implemented in Atlantic City that are expected to come to Pleasantville include Project 365, which focuses the next year on problems affecting each neighborhood. In Atlantic City, that is being done by wards. Pleasantville plans to focus one initiative on the north side of town and one on the south.

Organizers of the so-called "Hostage Run" say the profits from the event will be donated to a military charity, but the wives of deployed soldiers say the entire premise is disrespectful.
The run basically mimics a kidnapping with the runners having black bags over their heads and their hands zip-tied behind their backs.
11Alive's Kaitlyn Ross spoke with military families who said they're making fun of a horrifying reality for some of America's service members.
"This is a fear of all military wives, husbands, children - of all military mothers," said Renea Carl.
Carl was horrified when she found out about the hostage run.
"I was driving down the road and I saw these signs and I got sick," said Carl.
Her husband served in the U.S. Army for 21 years and her son-in-law is currently deployed. She said there's nothing funny about prisoners of war.
"When I saw this I just wanted to know what kind of a sick and twisted individual would put this together," she said. "It makes no sense. It shows no support for our military."
Carl and Katherine Anders have tried to talk to the event organizers for the past month to explain why they're so upset about it.
"Trying to make it something fun is not how we should be communicating with society that this is acceptable," Anders said. "It's not acceptable."
Anders has young kids and said when her husband is deployed. She added that she's constantly holding her breath.
"To be honest, when you're at home and you don't hear from them for days, you just don't know," Anders said. "You don't know if they're OK, you don't know what's going on and it's hard to explain to your children why they haven't heard from their dad in a couple days."
Event organizers initially told 11Alive they would provide a statement about the controversy but then stopped responding.
On their website they wrote the idea for the run came from the debate around water boarding but added that "this event has nothing to do with the out of control and heartbreaking events going on around the world."
Anders said that's not good enough.
"It's not fun, it's not lighthearted and it's a disgrace to everyone who has lost and sacrificed their lives," she said.
Anders has since started an online petition to have the Hostage Run canceled.
On their website, the organizers had said they were partnering with the charity Hugs for Heroes which they said sends care packages to deployed service members. By Thursday, the Hostage Run's website stated that the charity was no longer associated with the run. The website stated:
"Due to our former charity partner, Hero Hugs (which was started by an amazing young and hard working girl that did amazing work over the years,) received never ending and harassing hate mail from one or two individuals in particular that didn't like this run's theme, we have decided to produce this event with no charity affiliation and only to raise awareness of human trafficking. All current donations will be refunded to participants."
The founder of the charity did not return 11Alive's calls for comment and the charity has not been financially active since 2012.
11Alive's Kaitlyn Ross will have a follow-up story Thursday night at 11 on 11Alive News.

A Manual for Working Mothers to Achieve Their Own Work-life Balance.
Real, raw, and funny – you will feel empowered and capable of having it all after reading! The manual contains fourteen topical chapters designed to give practical advice and inspiration through giggle-worthy stories. Chapters include: Stay At Home Moms Are Not The Enemy Sex: Just Do It, and Mothers and Mothers-In-Law.
Where Do I Start?
Read an excerpt: Being a working mom is the most crazy, amazing, powerful, frustrating, loving experience you will ever have in your entire life. And I am here to tell you that you can do it! But you will never do it perfectly. Throw perfect out of your vocabulary. Just toss it out the window and keep on driving, because, sister, it ain't an option for you anymore.
We've been fed a huge pack of lies. We've been told that we can bring home the bacon, fry it up in the pan, and feed our smiling, happy family with it. I am here to tell you that the quickest way to end up on a therapist's couch or crying into your glass of pinot noir at your girlfriend's house is to think that "perfect" and "working mother" belong in the same sentence. They don't.
No One Has It All.
Save yourself the doctor's bill and the AA meetings and just accept the fact that if you choose to work and be a mom, life will be far from perfect.

How big business is taking away your constitutional rights.
In addition to misleading propaganda, tort reform advocates want to change the way our civil justice system operates. Corporate interests have lobbied legislators at the state and federal level to limit plaintiffs' access to our courts. Disregarding our nation's separation of powers, legislatures are rewriting our constitutions at the behest of big business. Though these reforms come in many forms and vary from state to state, we've outlined the most popular anti-lawsuit legislation.

Have you noticed a lack of innovation in your company lately? Why is that? If you're like many other entrepreneurs and small business, you're mostly likely hyper-focused on efficiency, cost, and short term growth rather than a culture of innovation and creativity. This mindset leaves little room for exciting ideas to emerge!
1. Get Comfortable with Risk:
Being innovative requires taking some risks and trying new things. Yes, some won't work out. Know that everything you try helps you figure out the things
that do work and what will most definitely help your business grow!
2. Smaller is Better:
3. Lean into Uncertainty:
As you know, nothing is a sure thing when it comes to business. This principal holds true with innovation. Businesses that are at ease with change and ambiguity succeed the most with innovation. So go ahead and lean into uncertainty while fostering an environment of exploration, experimentation, and invention.
4. Build on What Already Exists:
Take heart, you do not have to recreate the wheel. The innovative ideas businesses should generate are ensuring you create new value for clients. Don't worry if it looks like something old newly packaged or is borrowed from others in your industry. The best innovators learn how to combine existing things differently or transfer concepts from others.
5. Measure your Innovation:
Keep a record of the results. How are the innovative ideas helping your business and your customers? Is your client base growing? Are you leads and sales increasing? expanding? What are others saying about your business? Are you getting more exposure and PR? How is innovation helping motivate your team members to come up with additional creative ideas?
Allow your creative juices to flow and be amazed how it impacts all areas of your business and value for your customers!

The Punter: Warne set for six of the best
Can England gain some respectability by winning the third Test starting in Perth tomorrow? The simple answer has to be no in view of the disquiet that seems to be enveloping the players and the unhappiness of Andrew Flintoff at Michael Vaughan hovering in the background.
Team spirit is not all that it should be and the odds of 8-15 on the Aussies is a solid call with a saver on the draw at 2-1. England are out with the washing at 7-1.
There are some interesting bets surrounding Shane Warne (pictured) who needs only six wickets to reach his 700th Test victim.
He is 8-11 to reach that landmark in Perth and evens to do so later in the series.
There is some doubt about the fitness of Warne due to an elbow injury but he is expected to be in the side.
On the assumption that the wizard of Oz does line-up, Steve Harmison is 10-1 favourite to be his 700th victim.
But better to focus higher up the order second time around and that makes middle-order batsman Kevin Pietersen who has a habit of falling into the Warne trap, a decent 16-1 chance for a bit of fun along.
Also it is 7-2 for his victim to be bowled while it is odds-on that his 700th wicket will come via a catch.
Third Test: 8-15 Australia; 2-1 draw; 7-1 England.
Shane Warne to reach 700 wickets in third test: 8-11 Yes; Evens no.
Shane Warne's 700th victim - prices for third test only: 10-1 Harmison, 12 Jones, Hoggard, 14 Anderson, Collingwood, Mahmood, Panesar, 16 Flintoff, Pietersen, 20 Bell, 25 Cook, Strauss.
Method: 4-7 caught, 7-2 bowled, 7-2 LBW, 20-1 stumping, 100-1 any other. Run out doesn't count, bets void if 700th wicket doesn't happen in third Test.
Don't turn your noses up at Zara
Where are all those people coming from who were shocked at Zara Phillips winning the BBC'S Sports Personality of the Year?
We even have those who say she didn't deserve it as she required the horse to play its part.
In that case, runner-up Darren Clarke and Jenson Button should never have been in the frame as they too were not on their own.
Any detraction from Zara is simply inverted snobbery. She was a worthy winner as a double World and European eventing champion, making her the top horse woman bar none.
That's no mean feat as both titles have only been held by an eventer on two other occasions in equestrian history.
Unbelievably, she was 400-1 at one time on Betfair but was trumpeted here from September at 5-2. Hope you all got on.
As for Darren, William Hill still believe that the likeable Dungannon man will win the RTE award this Saturday and make him 4-11 favourite.
That's much too short and Ireland's top golfer this year and European Order of Merit winner Padraig Harrington is the value bet at 5-1. Each-way, can't lose.
Candystripes a sweet choice
Derry City have been installed as favourites to win the new Eircom League of Ireland Premier Division which has been established by the FAI for next season.
The league is made up of 12 teams with Shamrock Rovers and Galway United getting places based on the results of an Independent Assessment Group who took their decision after examining recent results and off-the-field criteria of 21 clubs, taking into account infra-structure, governance, strategic planning, finance, youth development and marketing.
It meant the play-off won by Dundalk against Waterford was meaningless while the latter were relegated to the First Division.
William Hill make Derry 15-8 favourites to be the 2007 champions
The firm bet: Premier Division: 15-8 Derry City; 2-1 Shelbourne; 6-1 Drogheda United; 4-1 Cork City; 16-1 Bohemians; 16-1 Shamrock Rovers; 25-1 St. Patricks Athletic; Longford Town; 33-1 Sligo Rovers; 40-1 UCD; 50-1 Galway United, 66-1 Bray Wanderers; E/W 1/5 1-2-3
First Division: 15-8 Dundalk; 5-1 Waterford United; 11-2 Finn Harps; 7-1 Athlone Town; 15-2 Limerick City; 10-1 Cobh Ramblers; 16-1 bar.

BERNARD Tomic pushed aside his recent troubles and poor form to beat Ivo Karlovic in three tight sets to win the Claro Open Colombia.
The Australian world No.124 withstood 39 aces from his second-seeded opponent to take Sunday's match 7-6 (5) 3-6 7-6 (4) in almost two hours and 13 minutes.
The win, just days after he was dumped by global management firm IMG, is set to shoot the 21-year-old back into the top 100 on the world rankings - possibly as high as No.70.
It is his first title win overseas, following his triumph at the 2013 Sydney International, and comes with a healthy $US120,000 ($A129,835) paycheck.
Tomic is the second Australian to beat Karlovic in an ATP final this past week, with veteran Lleyton Hewitt toppling him in Newport.
The good news continued for Australia in the doubles final, with Samuel Groth and Chris Guccione defeating local duo Nicolas Barrientos and Juan Sebastian Cabal 7-6 6-7 9-11.
Tomic has endured a difficult year. He stormed to the final of the Sydney International – the tournament he won the previous year – only to lose 6-3, 6-1 to Juan Martin del Potro.
He was drawn to play Rafael Nadal in the first round of the Australian Open, only to succumb to a hip injury and retire after conceding the first set 6-4. He was booed off the court by sections of the Melbourne Park crowd.

Tomic underwent hip surgery and returned to the court at the Miami Masters in mid-March. He lost his opening round match 6-0, 6-1 to Jarkko Nieminen in just 28 minutes and 20 seconds – the fastest defeat in ATP history.
Tomic was knocked out in the first or second rounds of his next seven tournaments – including the French Open and Wimbledon – prompting suggestions he had lost his appetite for the contest.
But those notions were dispelled with victory in Bogota. Tomic's second career ATP victory should provide him with a huge confidence boost ahead of next month's US Open.
Tomic is also set for a boost on the ATP rankings. His ranking has fallen from 51st to 124th this year.

Mike Daisey Takes On Steve Jobs In New Play
March 8, 2010
(ChattahBox) – Celebrated American playwright, Mike Daisey, has taken up the pen once more, this time writing a play about Apple CEO Steve Jobs.
The play, titled The Agony and the Ecstasy of Steve Jobs, is already generating a great deal of interest.
The story follows Jobs and his success as Apple's CEO here in America, and the recent (and not so recent) controversy of the manufacturing practices in China, which includes recent allegations of running sweat shops with child labor.
A statement from Berkeley, where the play is set to be released in January 2011, described the show as an "epic story of a real-life Willy Wonka whose personal obsessions profoundly affect our everyday lives—and follows the trail to China where millions toil in factories to create iPhones and iPods.
"With his wry eye and eccentric intellect, Daisey delivers [an] adventure story that cuts deep with hilarious social critique."
