Public Foundations
Public foundations are grantmaking public charities that gain their funds from a variety of sources, which may include foundations, individuals, corporations, or public entities. Public foundations may engage in fundraising, and may seek broad public financial support. They may or may not have endowments. There is no legal definition of a public foundation, but most dedicate a significant portion of their annual budgets to grantmaking. Most community foundations are also grantmaking public charities.
Since public foundations may be defined in different ways, and there is no official IRS or legal definition of public foundations, it is difficult to arrive at statistics that are fully representative of the field.
Below is everything on our site for public foundations. You can use the filtering options on the right to narrow these results.
Democratic Practice
The Council on Foundations is pleased to announce two summer webinars that will delve into critical provisions in comprehensive tax reform proposal introduced by House Ways and Means Committee Chairman Dave Camp (R-MI-4). The proposal lays the groundwork for comprehensive tax reform, and contains dozens of provisions that affect foundations, including—
The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development and the U.S. Department of Agriculture, in partnership with the Council on Foundations, announce the 2014 Secretaries' Award for Public-Philanthropic Partnerships.
Every day, Council members stand at the forefront of innovation, explore creative ways to advance the common good, and find solutions for complex issues in society. For this, the Council's award programs were established to recognize excellence in philanthropy and honor exemplary leaders for their dedication in uplifting the sector.
As we continue this legacy, the Council awarded in 2014 the Distinguished Service Award and the Robert Scrivner Award for Creative Grantmaking.
Speaker Highlights
Kate Ahern, Vice President of Social Innovation, Case Foundation
Local Issues. Local Solutions.
Donor advised funds are a unique philanthropic tool. They allow donors to establish accounts at institutions, such as community foundations, and remain involved in supporting the causes and issues they care about. Community foundations oversee and manage funds on behalf of families, groups, or individuals and, in many cases, have the discretion to direct some of the resources to priority causes the foundation identifies. Together DAFs and community foundations are brining local solutions to the causes and issues that matter most.

Credit Crisis
Beijing, We Have A ProblemSubmitted by Tyler Durden on 12/10/2014 00:30 -0400
The Chinese stock market hit a four year high today at 3,020. This is up 53% since the middle of 2013 low and up 48% in the last six months. I guess this must mean the Chinese economy is operating on all cylinders. If you think so, you'd be wrong. As Anne Stevenson-Yang - who has lived there since 1985, told Barron's, the entire Chinese economic miracle is a fraud. The reforms are false. The leaders are corrupt and as evil as ever. The entire edifice is built upon a Himalayan mountain of bad debt. This lady is about as blunt as you can get about Chinese fraud, lies, mal-investment, and data manipulation.

10 Reasons Why A Severe Drop in Oil Prices Is A ProblemSubmitted by Tyler Durden on 12/08/2014 17:59 -0400
Not long ago, we wrote Ten Reasons Why High Oil Prices are a Problem. If high oil prices can be a problem, how can low oil prices also be a problem? In particular, how can the steep drop in oil prices we have recently been experiencing also be a problem? In our view, a rapid drop in oil prices is likely a symptom that we are approaching a debt-related collapse. Underlying this debt-related collapse is the fact that we seem to be reaching the limits of a finite world. There is a growing mismatch between what workers in oil importing countries can afford, and the rising real costs of extraction, including associated governmental costs. This has been covered up to date by rising debt, but at some point, it will not be possible to keep increasing the debt sufficiently. At some point the debt situation will eventually reach a breaking point.

Liquidity Does Not Create SolvencySubmitted by Tyler Durden on 11/24/2014 19:51 -0400
The actions of central bankers around the globe which have been driving stock prices higher are not a sign of control. They are signs of desperation. They are losing control. Their academic theories have failed. Their bosses insist they turn it up to eleven. Something is going to blow. You can feel it. John Hussman knows what will happen. Do you?

And The Person Responsible For Japan's Economic Endgame Is... Paul KrugmanSubmitted by Tyler Durden on 11/21/2014 21:53 -0400
There are two words that should strike fear in the hearts of any rational-thinking citizen of the world - Paul Krugman. Wondering why? As Alhambra's Jeff Snider notes, we already know of at least one respect where Krugman (as a stand-in at least for the Keynesian perspective that is somehow still widely shared, especially in the orthodox economist class) has impacted 'stimulus' activity, Sweden. And now his appearance in Japan enabled what Japanese economists call a "historic meeting," as Bloomberg reports that Abe met with the Nobel-prize winner for 40 minutes who "helped the prime minister make up his mind," that delaying the fiscally-responsible tax-hikes was the right thing to do (and increasing QQE) or Japan "wouldn't escape deflation." Mission Accomplished... and if it fails, moar will be needed and 'capitalism' will be blamed.

China Launches CNY500 Billion In "Stealth QE"Submitted by Tyler Durden on 09/16/2014 11:36 -0400
It has been a while since the PBOC engaged in some "targeted" QE. So clearly following the biggest drop in the Shanghai Composite in 6 months after some abysmal Chinese economic and flow data in the past several days, it's time for some more. From Bloomberg:
Just as expected, the Chinese "derivative" currency, the AUD, goes vertical on the news, and the S&P 500 goes vertical alongside:. As for those confused what the SLF is, here is a reminder, from our February coverage of this "stealth QE" instrument.

Is This China's Scariest Chart?Submitted by Tyler Durden on 09/15/2014 21:38 -0400
UPDATE: It appears the exodus is beginning - China FDI -14% YoY (vs +0.8% exp.)
As China's shift to a consumer economy progresses based on the urbanization of its agrarian 'poor' population, an odd thing is happening at the other end of the demographic wealth spectrum. As WSJ reports, nearly half of wealthy Chinese are planning to move to another country within the next five years, according to a new Barclays survey. The top reasons 47% of these individuals - with net worths over $1.5 billion - cite for fleeing China include educational and employment opportunities, economic security, and climate. Ironically, none mentioned 'running away from potential prosecution for graft'.

Double Whammy China PMI Misses Spark Sell-Side Demands For More StimulusSubmitted by Tyler Durden on 08/31/2014 23:07 -0400
A record-breaking surge in monthly credit creation and a trillion Yuan of QE-lite was enough to provide a glimmer of hope into the tumbling Chinese economy for one or maybe two months but with the real estate market continuing to free-fall, it should be no surprise that China's PMIs finally catch down to the erstwhile reality simmering under the surface in the ultimate centrally-planned economy. China's official government PMI dropped from 30-month highs, missed expectations and the early month flash print, to less exuberant 51.1 reading (with Steel industry new orders totally collapsing) with both medium- and small-companies printing contractionary sub-50 levels. Then (after Japan's PMI beat - of course it did as hard data crashes worst on record), HSBC China PMI also missed, printing a slightly expansionary 50.2 Showing, as BofA warns "the two PMIs both show that the current recovery is relatively weak and choppy..." and RBS adds "we expect the government to interpret such an outlook as challenging its growth target and to take more, and more significant, measures to support growth."

ECB Hires Blackrock For ABS-Buying Advice; Crushes Idea Of Upcoming QESubmitted by Tyler Durden on 08/27/2014 09:56 -0400
Just in case futures buying algos forgot what the regurgitated "catalyst" that activated the overnight ramp was, the ECB was kind enough to remind everyone that the main event over the past 12 hours was the Deutsche Bank leak that while the ECB will not announce outright QE any time soon, thus denying the rumor spread in the past weak by the likes of Citi and JPM, the formerly preannounced and thus already priced-in (by the EURUSD which was about to take out 1.40 a few months ago) ABS purchase program, or as DB called it "private QE" is about to be unleashed. The ECB confirmed this earlier this morning when it announced that it had appointed BlackRock, the world's biggest money manager, to advise on developing a program to buy asset-backed securities. In other words, Europe's largest public-sector hedge fund has just hired the world's largest private-sector hedge fund to "fix things."

Insolvent Chinese Construction Company Gets Last Minute Bailout, Avoids China's Second Bond DefaultSubmitted by Tyler Durden on 07/23/2014 08:21 -0400
Those keeping track and hoping the second default would finally hit have to hold their breath again after yet another last minute bailout has now made a complete mockery of China's "deliberate" intentions to clear up the rot plaguing its bond market. As Reuters reports, Huatong avoided a "landmark bond default at the last minute on Wednesday, raising enough funds to pay off both principal and interest on a 400 million yuan ($64.51 million) bond." Who bailed it out? Why the same government which continues to say one thing and do something totally different.

"This Could Be The Last Straw" 90% Of China Loan Guarantors BankruptSubmitted by Tyler Durden on 07/07/2014 12:20 -0400
In Wenzhou - dubbed the capital of China's private businesses - nearly 90 per cent of loan guarantors have failed since the start of the credit crisis arising from the underground banking system, according to the media. As SCMP reports, although their services are critical for the economic system and the millions of small firms - that provide the majority of the mainland's jobs - hundreds of loan guarantee groups are creaking under the weight of bad loans and are simply unable to bear any more. "It could become the last straw that breaks the camel's back," exclaims the head of a local law firm, "without the privately owned small businesses, China's economy won't have a future." But PMIs are up so everything's fine?

Is This A Self-Sustaining Recovery Or As Good As It Gets?Submitted by Tyler Durden on 07/03/2014 11:03 -0400
Opinions about the U.S. economy boil down to two views: 1) the recovery is now self-sustaining, meaning that the Federal Reserve can taper and end its unprecedented interventions without hurting growth, or 2) the current uptick in auto sales, new jobs, housing sales, etc. is as good as it gets, and the weak recovery unravels from here. The reality is that nothing has been done to address the structural rot at the heart of the U.S. economy. You keep shoving in the same inputs, and you guarantee the same output: another crash of credit bubbles and all the malinvestments enabled by monetary heroin.

ExxonMobil Corp.'s review of adding adding almost three billion pounds of polyethylene capacity in Texas is featured in this week's Material Insight's video. Houston-based ExxonMobil -- one of the world's largest oil and gas producers -- has filed applications that would allow for construction of a new ethane cracker as well as of two major new PE lines. The review process is expected to last about a year. If the project is approved, production should start sometime in 2016. Company officials said new natural gas discoveries are behind the proposed move. Invista's launch of new technology for making adiponitrile feedstock also is featured in this week's video. Adiponitrile is a key feedstock used to make nylon 6/6 resin. The new process can improve product yields, reduce energy consumption and lower carbon dioxide emissions. The video wraps up with a look at aggressive financial targets set by compounding leader PolyOne. By 2015, the Avon Lake, Ohio-based firm expects to have annual sales of $5 billion and adjuster eanings per-share of $2.50. Those targets are more than 70 percent higher than PolyOne's 2011 sales total and more than double its 2011 adjusted EPS level.

This article covers an emerging trend in how some tech companies finance their growth today. Rather than approach equity investors for early-stage funds, many entrepreneurs now prefer to bootstrap their growth by generally taking advantage of lower startup costs.
This information will help you discover and document your workflow--how the work flows from Point A to Point Z, who touches it, what happens to it, and how you will know it is complete.
There is a difference between employees showing a passion for the employer (which is great to have) versus a passion for their work (which is a crucial part of productivity). The advice given here is to "let people do what they want and need to do" and to keep out of the way of success.
Five Pillars to Leadership and Success: surround yourself with good people. Invest in them. Listen to them. Align culture and mission. And keep your commitments. Sounds deceptively simple, but implementing may be more complex.

Though Macy's is primarily known for its clothing and home decor, the renowned department store is just as adept at feeding its customers as it is at fashionably clothing them. Inside the retail haven's many locations, casual eateries welcome shoppers with classic American dishes updated with fresh ingredients. Lighter plates, such as chopped salads and turkey sandwiches, are served up alongside favorites including grilled burgers and Alaskan cod and chips. Hearty, homestyle entrees of oven-baked meatloaf, chicken pot pie, and macaroni and cheese complete the menu.

There is no bad time or wrong season to eat German food. However, during fall and winter, German cuisine particularly shines. It is hearty, warming, and comforting with a bit of zing. For 24 years and against all manner of tides in the ebb and flow of downtown Hagerstown economics, Schmankerl Stube is the little restaurant that could.
Before you have even sampled any food, your senses are treated to a series of delights the instant you walk into the Jamaican Café, located at 171 Retail Commons Parkway in Martinsburg, West Virginia. The reggae music playing in the background is lively but not too loud. On the walls are posters of the king of reggae, Bob Marley. The warm, inviting, and sparkling clean interior with its wood floors the color of honey, the comfortable orange booths, and other various tables and chairs all seem to say, "Stay and sit a while. Enjoy the food! Enjoy each other's company!"

House Committee on the Budget
April 25, 2002
By: Bill Frenzel
The Hon. Bill Frenzel on behalf of himself and The Hon. Tim Penny, as Co-Chairmen of The Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget
Mr. Chairman and Members of the Committee,
Thank you for giving me the opportunity to testify again today on the subject of Budget Discipline. I do so for myself and the Hon. Tim Penny, and for the Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget, which we co-chair.
No law, process, provision or formula can actually control fiscal policy, nor stop the Congress from spending if it seriously wants to do so. Congress can only be restrained by the Constitution. The record is replete with Congress' less-than- successful efforts to control its own spending, from debt limitation statutes, to the Budget Act itself, and to other fancier embellishments like Gramm-Rudman.
Each of these had some early, modest success. Eventually, Congress found ways to get around them all. Of all of these restraints, the most successful, and the most durable budget control mechanisms have been Discretionary Spending Caps and PAYGO, and so I recommend that the Congress extend these two primary control features as early as possible this year, and I congratulate this Committee for its good work in pursuit of this elusive goal.
Spending Caps and PAYGO are imperfect instruments, and as noted earlier, they cannot force Congress to do, or not to do, anything. However, when the spending limits are agreed to by the President and the Congress, they are the most effective Budget enforcement mechanism the Congress has discovered yet.
Because their effectiveness wanes with age, they need to be reviewed and renewed every couple of years.
First used after the Budget Enforcement Act of 1990, they have a pretty good record of keeping spending within the levels set by Congress in its Budget Resolution. They were revised in 1993, and again in 1997. Because the 1997 changes obviously needed further adjustment, this Committee, and I, have recommended since 1998 that you adopt new discretionary spending limits early in each Budget cycle.
After the initial high Caps set for FY 1991, Discretionary Spending remained well below the inflation rate through the 90s. In the last two Budget years, FY '00 and '01, when the limits were pretty well ignored, Discretionary Spending increased at rates more than several times the rate of inflation.
In the case of terrorism, and our war against it, it is good thing to waive such limits when necessary in real emergencies, but it is also a good idea to reestablish them, as soon as possible, to preserve the priorities, old and new, which Congress agrees to when it passes, or modifies, its Budget Resolution. The Caps should have been reset at the end of last year, but now is a very good time to set the Caps again.
I am occasionally asked why we need PAYGO in addition to the Caps. My answer is that the urge to spend follows the path of least resistance. If Discretionary Spending is capped, and entitlements are not, it is not hard to guess what kinds of new, and changed, spending programs we will have. In addition, Discretionary Spending programs are more easily dealt with in a Budget sense since they can occasionally, admittedly not often, be reduced or even zeroed, while entitlements are forever.
For those who are nervous about inhibiting urges to cut taxes, it is well to remember that when the President and the Congress want to exceed the caps, they find a way to do so. When tax cuts are the right policy, they will find a way to accomplish them, too.
Caps and PAYGO are not straightjackets. They are signboards to remind Congress what its priorities were when it passed its Budget Resolution. In true emergencies when Congress and the President need to spend more, or to provide more tax cuts for economic incentive, it is always appropriate to reassess the priorities, and alter the limitations.
Except for my own, there is no level of federal spending which just right. The right level politically is the one on which the President and the Congress agree.
That is where the Caps should be. We think Congress should reset them regularly, perhaps as often as biennially, even if it may mean generally higher levels of spending. They must conform to political reality, or they will be ignored. A simple majority should be able to make changes as long as the votes are recorded. The transparency of free debate and clear-cut votes will have what we believe is a sobering affect on the Congress.
As you know, Mr. Chairman, our Committee supports a binding Budget Resolution, passed by Congress and signed by the President. One important feature of such a process is a regular opportunity for, and an expectation of, agreement between the two branches of government on spending limits.
Even without a Joint Budget Resolution, Congress could automatically send a bill setting caps to the President when it passes its Budget Resolution, just as it used to do with Debt Ceiling bills under the old "Gephardt" procedure.
In this testimony, however, I really want to focus on the Spending Caps and PAYGO, as being the highest priorities right now, rather than to divert your attention by repeating other wonderful ideas previously presented, such as the Joint Budget Resolution. For the record, my testimony of last July 19 before this distinguished Committee stands, but the twin spending limits are target #1 for today.
The final warning is to repeat that no amount of good law, or good process, or good restraint, can substitute for Congressional commitment and Congressional leadership on this issue. It is not easy to set the priorities. They reduce flexibility, but they do help establish order and discipline. Once they are set, they are, based on history, a helpful, and occasionally powerful, reminder which reinforces the original commitment.
Mr. Chairman, and long-suffering Committee Members, thanks for your time and your interest in this matter. This is a tough Committee on which to serve. It is a political truism that nobody ever tears the cuff-links off of Congressmen who say no. Nevertheless, I suspect that future generations of taxpayers who will be obliged to live with the affects of today's fiscal policies, may honor the memory of those who occasionally said no.

The Somerset region
Weston Super Mare is a great place to base your stay. It is serviced by two motorway junctions - J21 north - J22 south - making Weston extremely accessible and the surrounding areas.
We are close to Bristol which is steeped with history and culture. It is also a great place for shopping with both Cabot Circus and Cribbs Causeway within a 25 minutes driving distance. Welcome to the city of bridges, balloons, boats, Brunel and Banksy. Whether you're looking for a great day out for all the family, a romantic break or a little adventure, there's a fantastic range of things to do in Bristol. http://visitbristol.co.uk/things-to-do
Bath is also within an hours driving distance - Bath and the surrounding area is brimming with things to see and do. Designated by UNESCO as a World Heritage Site, Bath presents some of the finest architectural sights in Europe such as the Royal Crescent, the Circus and Pulteney Bridge alongside a diverse collection of museums and attractions including the Roman Baths, Jane Austen Centre and Thermae Bath Spa. Bath's compact city centre offers irresistible shopping and there are plenty of activities to enjoy in the surrounding area.
Explore Britain's biggest gorge from the dramatic cliffs rising 450ft to the stunning stalactite caverns. This world-famous beauty spot is a National Nature Reserve, reveals many fascinating stories of our prehistoric ancestors, and is an international centre for caving and rock climbing. A great day out for families, nature and history lovers, and outdoor adventurers. http://www.cheddargorge.co.uk/
The new EDF building project at Hinkley Point is also an easy commute from Weston as well as Avonmouth and the Ports of Bristol.
Victoria Park is within a short walking distance of Weston Town Centre and Sea Front and its many great attractions such as the Grand Pier, Winter Gardens, Knightstone Island, Marine Lake, Anchor Head, Weston Woods and much more.
Weston is up and coming and has a vibrant town centre, night life and a choice of many good restaurants and pubs. One of the best features of Weston is its sweeping bay and golden sands, where you can still find things to see and do for all of the family - from the famous Weston donkeys to traditional afternoon tea at one of the many sea front cafes.
During the summer months, Weston has many events, shows and extravaganzas taking place on the Beach Lawns - please contact the local TIC for more and up to date information.
For those who enjoy a round of golf there are several excellent courses and clubs including Worlebury and Weston Golf Clubs both within 2 miles of the apartments.
And for those who enjoy a more peaceful recreation, we have Weston woods behind us and there is now a path which takes you along the toll road to Kewstoke where there are several cafes and a public bus to bring you back again if you wish.
So whether you choose to stay at Seafarers for business, a romantic break or a family stay-cation you will find us in an excellent location.

Uber grabs mapping tech, employees from Microsoft
Uber is adding to its mapping smarts by acquiring technology used by Microsoft's Bing Maps, and has hired roughly 100 Microsoft employees who work on image collection and data analysis.

The most interesting people that Uber is now hiring aren't drivers: they're engineers whose innovations may ultimately put those drivers out of work.
FedEx isn't worried about car-hailing startups encroaching on the parcel delivery business.
Uber is acquiring deCarta, a mapping and location company that could help Uber to develop new types of services and also ensure its drivers show up on time.

Uber likes to promote its service as an easy way to get from point A to point B with a smartphone. Now the company wants to reward you for making one of those points a hotel.
The prospect of government oversight and steady stream of security issues facing Uber haven't scared investors from the ride-hailing company, which will expand its latest round of venture funding by US$1 billion.

First impression on unpacking the Q702 test unit was the solid feel and clean, minimalist styling.
For work use, Microsoft Word and Excel programs pre-installed on the device are adequate for preparing short documents.
The Fujitsu LifeBook UH574 allowed for great mobility without being obnoxiously heavy or clunky. Its twelve hours of battery life did not disappoint.
The screen was particularly good. It is bright and visible from most angles, however heat is an issue, particularly around the Windows button on the front, and on the back where the battery housing is located.
My first impression after unboxing the Q702 is that it is a nice looking unit. Styling is somewhat minimalist but very effective. The tablet part, once detached, has a nice weight, and no buttons or switches are located in awkward or intrusive positions.
