Guest Information
Episode Description
Doing business in emerging markets? This week guest host, Nate Suppaiah, founder of the Emerging Market Investors Association, takes an in-depth look at the link EM credit and EM risk with Wilbur Matthews, CEO of Vaquero Global Investment. Matthews, who's been cited as one of the "Most Astute US-based Investor(s)" in Asian credit markets is known for structuring innovative, first-of-their kind financings while generating consistently strong returns with below market volatility. They look at the intrinsic differences between emerging and developed market credit. Looking as cases in Mexico, Greece, Argentina and Ukraine/USSR, they compare EM credit vs EM equity markets. Who should be trading in EM credit? How do different strategies stack up? How can investors trade using hard or local currencies? How can you use sovereign or corporate credit as an indicator for broader business risk?

My parents let me know they are kin;
When we were little boys and girls,
At family gatherings played together again.
The more "ants" and uncles you had
The more cousins you had to play with!
Mine was Thelma and I was jealous when she married.
It was very cool since I was an only child.
Away from under the nose of my two controlling parents.
As uncles and aunts died-off
Spread across the states,
Increasingly less contact over decades with them
Less and less meaningful relationships
As they married or we had our careers.
Cousins are cool when you are young,
They are non-assisting adults in my experience as we age.
I only reconnected via LinkedIN with one who was similar to me,
Recently and only one year older than I;
A judicial magistrate who I played ball with in 1969!
Only to hear that he just died a couple months thereafter!
Cousins with reality checks, is what they are good for.
I never hear from or about most of them,
Save from my thankfully still alive Mum.
Cousins are like a phantom family member and war;
Past parental fun and we had to be around so why not?
Yet as a child of one's uncle or aunt,
I tried to check-in with an older cousin guy I admired;
Mum encouraged me to do so but,
We have nyet in-common!
He is a stick-in-the-mud snob.
At the end of my day,
What are they really good for?

With Jake, Jonathon and Tav.
Jake in the Tuck Shop, I was on top of the slope, Jonathon on the haul and shuttle, Tav opted for surface duty. Last week's bags were cleared from the entrance, followed by the rocks left in the Tuck Shop.
When the debris was cleared, a discussion ensued regarding the best spot to engineer a connection to the 'Lower Series'. The recent survey made this clearer and a likely spot was chosen. Jake set-about digging away some loose sediment and rocks, then re-located a small 'stal boss' in a new position. Meanwhile, I went down into the 'Lower Series', beyond T-Junction, to try another voice connection. It was clear and a conversation could take place, there isn't a light connection possible, at present. I spent a short time scratching away at the potential way forward, where there is a small air-space over the top of the sediment, generally in the direction we want to go.
No-one else ventured along Toil and Trouble, I had a quick jaunt towards Trick or Treat, but decided against the muddy, wet puddle, no spare, dry 'shreddies' being my feeble excuse. I joined the team on the surface and we had a quick discourse regarding the plan. I will order the necessary supplies and attend to matters during the coming week.
An earlier visit to the Hunter's Lodge Inn than anticipated.

I remember precisely when I first picked up my copy of Christopher Moore's Lamb: The Gospel According to Biff, Christ's Childhood Pal. (See my previous post on the subject; a comment from a friend inquiring if he was in fact the one who sold it to me (he was! This was ages and ages ago) got me thinking about this subject in general.) I think, much like major world events, the brain tends to hold on to smaller, significant, personal experiences, like where you were when you first read, or even first heard of, a book that would end up changing your life.
Some other significant personal experiences with me and books:
– I don't remember when I first actually read Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone. I really don't. I was behind the times when that 'trend' came about, my parents found out about it first (Dad worked in a library and bought home everything ever). I distinctly recall we were in the car driving to my grandmother's when they were listening to Sorcerer's Stone on audio book. I fell asleep, because I often fall asleep during long car rides. My mother came by later that night to inform me of a passage I'd missed but she thought I would enjoy:
[Dumbledore] smiled and popped the golden-brown bean into his mouth. Then he choked and said, "Alas! Ear wax!"
I don't have the functional mental capacity required for audio books. I can't even listen to podcasts. I put on background music when I do anything (to this day, I can't listen to OK Go's "Get Over It" without somehow imagining Professor Snape, because I had a promotional CD of the single that I played on literal loop for the entire duration of the day I spent in my room reading Order of the Phoenix). So obviously I had to go and read the series eyes-to-page, as is my wont. And thus an addict was born.
– More on addiction: I distinctly recall the day Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince (my current re-read!) came out, because my friends were in town visiting for the weekend, an infrequent occurrence, and I spent my day on their couch trying to simultaneously interact and also read about wizards. The best guest is the one who sits on your couch and reads without talking to you.
– My all-time favorite book, Daniel Handler's The Basic Eight, was consumed on a night train ride from Chicago. I have re-read it without fail every year since (I need about a year to digest everything in it, and to cleanse my memory sufficiently so that all of the twists and turns and lyrical dances come as a fresh new surprise), but I always remember that first glorious time.
– I distinctly recall the day, in my very first library job, where it was pouring rain and my coworker and I had no patrons, and I sat behind the desk while the rain thundered on the roof, reading Dean Koontz's Phantoms for the first time and getting terrified out of my mind. (Say what you will about Dean Koontz, his early stuff before it became all about psycho killers was very good and sufficiently scary.) Ambiance can sometimes be everything.
– That particular job is also where I first discovered Lemony Snicket (do you like how I'm slowly going backwards in time?), and had ready access to A Series of Unfortunate Events, to consume more or less in one sitting, up until the point where I had to wait an agonizing year between volumes, causing entirely too much stress and worry about those darn orphans of misfortune.
So where were you when you first read something that changed your life?

- That would be a good thing for them to cut on my tombstone: Wherever she went, including here, it was against her better judgement.

Sunderland manager David Moyes said his team needed to go on a winning run to escape relegation but they could be without top scorer Jermain Defoe for Tuesday's Premier League trip to revitalised champions Leicester City.
Sunderland are bottom of the table and seven points from safety, having won just one of their last 12 league games. Saturday's 1-0 defeat by Watford leaves them desperate for a win at Leicester, who are on a four-game winning run in the league.
Leicester, who were flirting with relegation themselves before Claudio Ranieri was sacked in February, are undefeated under new manager Craig Shakespeare and have climbed to 13th in the table, six points above the drop zone.
"In the position we're in, it's going to take a really good go. We need to start winning games back to back," Moyes told a news conference on Monday.
"Leicester are in good form but they have some big games coming up. Hopefully we can catch them on an off night. While there's still a mathematical chance, we need to keep going. This was always going to be a pivotal week."
The task ahead of Moyes has been complicated by the possibility of Defoe missing the match. The England international has scored 14 goals for Sunderland this season.
The club's next highest scorer, Victor Anichebe, has scored three goals. "Jermain Defoe didn't train yesterday. I can't give you any more of an update than that," Moyes said.
He also apologised for comments he made to BBC reporter Vicki Sparks after Sunderland's game against Burnley on March 18. Moyes was caught on camera telling Sparks after an interview, "You still might get a slap even though you're a woman. Careful the next time you come in."
British media reported that the manager's comments were made after Sparks asked him whether having Sunderland owner Ellis Short in the stands during the Burnley game had increased the pressure on him.
"It was in the heat of the moment, I deeply regret the comments I made," Moyes said on Monday.
"It's certainly not the person I am and I accept it was a mistake. I've spoken to the BBC reporter who accepted my apology and hopefully we can now move on.
"If you look at my character and personality it couldn't be further from the truth. It can happen to managers young and old. It can be difficult being put in front of the cameras so soon after the games."
Injured Stoke City striker Peter Crouch is doubtful for Tuesday's Premier League trip to Burnley, with midfielder Xherdan Shaqiri and defender Geoff Cameron also unlikely to be ready in time for the match, manager Mark Hughes said.
Crouch hurt his knee during Stoke's 2-0 defeat at the hands of Leicester City on Saturday, while both Shaqiri and Cameron are short of match fitness.
"From the weekend we have a few bumps and bruises," Hughes told a news conference on Monday.
"Peter Crouch has a bang on his knee. Xherdan Shaqiri will train today but may not be fit for tomorrow. We are waiting on Geoff Cameron but he may well miss out."
Hughes said ninth-placed Stoke would focus on recovering in time for the trip to Burnley after a disappointing performance against Leicester, with the manager saying his side's target was to finish in the top half of the table.
"It's more about recovery with a short turnaround between games. It's less about being on the grass, instead making sure we are fresh," Hughes said.
"The displays against Middlesbrough, Manchester City and Chelsea were very good, however Leicester City not so. We have eight games to go and it's clear what we need to do to at least finish in the top 10."
Burnley have not won a league game since the end of January, and are 15th in the table, five points above the relegation zone, but Hughes said they were in no danger of being relegated this season because of their impressive home form.
Burnley's 2-0 defeat by Tottenham Hotspur on Saturday was the club's fourth loss at home in 15 league games this season.
"I don't see (Burnley) being in trouble come the end of the season," Hughes said. "Burnley don't change the way they play and play to their strengths. You have to be nice and solid because they have players who can hurt you."

|Face plate of a movement by the
Lancashire Watch Co before cleaning
The obvious thing to do and the recommendation of most books on watch maintenance for the amateur, is to use metal polish and indeed this in combination with other techniques will work and can be a quick way of getting the top plate of a movement clean and shiny [see this later post for an example], however there are some significant disadvantages firstly it is purely a cosmetic exercise not getting into the nooks and crannies of the watch or helping with the cleaning of the critical moving parts and secondly there is a real risk or removing the gilding from a gilt movement or the often very thin nickel or other coating frequently found on Swiss watches. The better method is not cheap as it requires the purchase of special cleaning and rinsing fluids and an ultrasonic cleaner cleaner.
The fluids are designed to allow the cleaning of "complete movements" as it says on the label. I do not think this is a good idea for old pocket watches, particularly those with motor barrels that can not be removed without taking the movement to pieces, as the fluid will interact with the oil in the barrel making it ineffective and judging from a few movements I have had in that have been done this way and from my experience with leaving too much oil on the movement before cleaning, it is likely to cause bad staining of the movement as the mixture spreads over the watch. In any case if the movement is to be cleaned properly then it needs to be taken to pieces so its best to do that up front.
This is the way I do it:
|The same LWC movement after cleaning
1. The movement is first broken down into its major parts, the top plate being removed together with the train, escapement and motor barrel. I leave the winding and setting gear in place if it is fixed in as the components are too small to easily handle. The mainspring is removed from the barrel.
2. Any obvious oil on the plates, barrel etc. is removed with tissue or a cloth, then loose material removed with a tooth brush with some mentholated spirits if necessary to get rid of thickened oil and other significant deposits.
3. Everything goes into the cleaner for 10 minutes. Whilst ultrasonic cleaning is a relatively gentle process it does lighten gilding a little, particularly on very old watches, and it is best not to over do it, a really dirty piece might get and extra five minutes but no more.
4. Pieces are then put into a rinsing fluid to get rid of the solvents and to chemically remove any water that might be present. After patting dry with tissue and blow drying the hairspring they are left to dry before the next stage.
At this point it is worth mentioning one additional cleaning problem that may have to addressed. Sellers of old watches, on eBay in particular, are eager to be able to describe them as "working" or "ticking" so are liable to soak them in oil (lengthening part 2 of the cleaning process) to get them moving and occasionally spraying the whole movement with WD40 or similar. The later process will undoubtedly cause the hairspring to get coated in oil, the former will only probably do so. This will mean that although the watch may tick the coils of the hairspring will stick together and if the watch runs for more than a few seconds it will typically run fast and erratically. The same effect may happen naturally over a very long period through corrosion or leakage of oil from the barrel. In both cases it is unlikely that the ultrasonic cleaning will be enough and it will be necessary to resort to some very strong solvents to clean up the hairspring.
5. Some of the winding gear may be removed for inspection at this stage and, particularly on some English keyless movements, to allow easier reassembly of the movement.
|And the top plate of the same.
7. After reassembly the movement is wound and immediately put onto the escapement analyser to make sure that the new mainspring is not over strong which among other things threatens to break the impulse jewel if the balance wheel turns by more than 360 degrees.
Some watches may run well immediately and can be given an initial regulation, using the analyser, and adjustments to get it into beat and to reduce any positional errors, others will take their time to get going but all need to run for 24 hours before going on the analyser again. If I am fortunate that will be the movement done, if not it could mean a lot of work making repairs, fiddling with the hairspring, etc.

About Us
The Process
How to get started
The Shirts
Gather all of the shirts you would like to have featured. We can use fronts and backs. You just have to be clear about this when you sent them or we pick them up. We can work with any kind of clothing (tech tees, etc.) , so don't feel limited. You need to have at least 9 images for a quilt. Go to
Size Options & Pricing
to see the various layouts and the costs of each. If you have something else in mind, we definitely can do it.
Please wash the shirts prior to getting them to us. Please don't use any fabric softener or dryer sheets.
Tom does an amazing job of placement, and you will get a picture of that placement for your approval prior to making the quilt. If you have something else in mind, however, be sure to give us a quick sketch of your thoughts.
If you're local, we'll either pick them up, or you can drop them off, or we can meet!
If not, you ship us the shirts. Go to
Shipping Your Shirts
for instructions.
There are a lot of options when figuring out what kind of quilt you want. We have a whole separate page for this. Go to
Size Options and Pricing
to see the exact sizes of what you'll get and how much it will cost. Just like anything, the more you want, the more it's going to cost. Sashing looks nice, but it's basically twice the work, so it costs more. Here are quilts with the options we offer (you can also see a variety in our
). Again, if there is something custom that you want, we can work together on a design and a price.
Dress Shirts
Sashing, Border, Cornerstones and Photo
Just Shirts
Border Only
Sashing Only
Sashing and Border
If you choose to add a border or sashing, we can discuss the color of fabric you would like. I use dark grey a lot because the shirts are usually so varied in color, and it ties them together. If there is a color theme of your shirts, we can work together to choose a color that best complements them.
I only use Northcott's ColorWorks. It's a high quality solid color 100% cotton material.
To Batt or not to Batt?
We back our quilts with high quality anti-pill fleece. It's really plush and thick - like a good fleece blanket. If you would like an added level of warmth and plush, you can get all cotton batting in between the quilt top and the fleece. We use a lower loft batting, so it won't make the quilt super thick. Basically, it will make the quilt more warm and heavy. It's a personal preference. It is extra (see
Size Options & Pricing
), but not too much so.
It's anywhere from $ 5.00 - $ 30.00 depending on the size.

The commonly expressed multifunctional protein and protooncogene β-catenin displays important functions in cellcell adhesion and in the Wnt signaling pathway. Transforming activity of the Wnt/β-catenin pathway is thought to be involved in the development of a variety of human cancers and many β-catenin target genes have been shown to play critical functions in tumors. Therefore, the aim of this project was to determine the expression levels and cellular distribution of active β-catenin and its target genes cyclin D1 and NrCAM a neuronal cell adhesion molecule in adrenocortical tumors. In this study, we performed the immunochistochemistry (IHC) for 13 and 31 patients with adenocortical adenoma (ACA) and carcinoma (ACC), respectively to evaluate the expression levels and subcellular localization of cyclin D1 and NrCAM. At the invasion front of 30/31 ACC cases strong active β-catenin expression was found in the nuclei and cytoplasm of tumor cells and weak expression at the central part of the tumor. Under these conditions, β-catenin can function as a transcription factor and thus activate target genes, among them cyclin D1-cell cycle progression protein and neuronal cell adhesion molecule NrCAM protein involved in the adhesion and signaling. Cyclin D1 low (>5%) to absent in all adrenal tumors. In normal adrenal gland distinct expression of NrCAM was seen in the central part of the cortex and weak on the periphery. In the ACA moderate cytoplasmic NrCAM l was seen through the tumor whereas the in ACC expression level of NrCAM protein was very strong at the invasion front of the cancer in contrast to central part with faint reactivity, suggesting its translocation. Moreover, NrCAM expression was not related to the primary tumor stage or the size. These data suggest that NrCAM, neuronal cell adhesion molecule could be implicated in the pathogenesis and behavior of adrenal tumors.

Hello SOTGC community,
The question I get asked the most as a coach is, "What should I do for a living?"
Most of us have heard and told stories about our experiences in the work place – the funny ones, the wins, the difficult ones, and especially the negative ones. And, because of it, we become very clear about what we don't want:
I don't want a job making less than what I make now.
I don't want to work for someone who is a jerk.
I don't want to work weekends.
I don't want ________________________ (I left that one for you. You know you wanna!)
We think that if we are focused on what we don't want, we can avoid making the same mistake – until we find ourselves in a new job learning about all of the other things we don't want. And it's not long after that we begin to wonder how this could have happened again.
It's simple. We get so caught up in what we don't want that we often forget to consider what we DO want.
Here's an easy way to figure out what you do want in a job or career.
Take your list of things you DON'T want, and then turn each one into what you DO want.
I want a job where I'm valued and generously compensated for the work I do.
I want to work for someone I respect.
I want a job that allows me to work Monday through Friday.
I want ____________________________ (Yep. That one's for you too.)
When you get clear on what you want, it makes it a lot easier to recognize it when the opportunity comes along.
Ready to do the work? Identify three things you don't want in your job and career, then turn them into statements of what you do want. Are they more in line with what you want in a career? Notice how things change, and share your results in the comments below.

Those who know me also know that I love coffee. I have posted about it here, and here. I recently picked up a digital kitchen scale, which is awesome, and have been experimenting a bit with different grounds-water ratios. This just takes coffee nerdery to a whole new level.
Should we account for roast darkness when measuring coffee beans by weight?
-In case you are wondering, I like this kind of nerdery. It makes mine feel just a little more normal.

Sonatas with Richter: Brahms/Haydn/Mozart
Trio of sonatas teaming Richter and violin master Oleg Kogan
The world seems unable to get enough of Sviatoslav Richter. A much loved, energetic and amazingly prolific performer, there has been a growth in appreciation of his live recordings over the years since his death. This collection puts together three supreme Sonata masterpieces of the high classical tradition and Oleg Kagan is at his stellar best in the violin works. The performances are from 1982 and 1985 and were proclaimed by Richter himself as worthy of issue on record.

I was doing some reading about human sexuality and Abasiophilia, the technical term for devotees of non-amputation related mobility impairment, when I came across a few fleeting references to an interesting, and allegedly successful theoretical approach to helping sex offenders. The interesting thing about the "Good Lives" model is that while it was designed initially for sex offenders it has shown success in helping a diverse array of non-traditionally coercive populations, transvestites for example, appropriately manage their feelings and accomplish their goals while not hurting others OR themselves. I'm still getting acquainted with it, and, as with every theory, it does have its detractors, though I feel the general principles of the model are in line with what I've been discussing.
The devoted are, to put it gently, exotic. We definitely deviate from the norm. I'd argue that this is very likely true cross culturally as well. The common argument coming from a layman's perspective on evolutionary psychology raised by academics, the devoted, and the disabled alike is that humans have a hardwired tendency to seek healthy mates who display a capability for child bearing, and that the physically disabled are thusly disadvantaged in pairing and mating. This has led to a number of theories, some slightly more ridiculous than others, regarding attraction and mating.
As sexual minorities we're presented with our own set of disadvantages, a few of which surely overlap with those of the disabled. We all feel the pressure to meet a mold that does not fit us. It is one which ignores and in some cases works against us. The notion of a disabled sexuality, or a sexuality which appreciates the disabled is treated as a joke. Despite this, the devoted of every stripe and fancy are not condemned to a life of sexless banality. There are other healthier, safer, non coercive options available.
There is something interesting to consider in light of this though.
If we are to assume that there are outlets for devoteeism some of which are "better" than others and which do not promote coercion, then we naturally also assume that some are "bad". Just as we do not yet know what causes paraphilias, whether coercive or otherwise, or what exactly leads someone to become a sex offender, we also do not know how to stop it. We can run as many episodes of To Catch A Predator as we want, but child sexual abuse will, sadly, still occur. Further, people will continue to fantasize about the sexual abuse of children. The same applies to devotees and literally every other possible sexual preference or turn-on. You can not stop it, you can merely change how and where it flows.
If we assume sexually coercive or exploitive behavior is wrong, then we must also assume behaviors which promote sexual coercion to be wrong as well.
So let's take your average dev. I assume that they A) have a given set of sexual desires and that B) they will seek an outlet for these desires. Generally here I'm assuming a generic person with abasiophilia. The sparse academic literature on Abasiophilia and related "disorders" points out, as anyone could have told you, that these primarily afflict men. While I certainly agree that it's silly to divide the world into only male and female, most of the population identifies as one of these two and it is a decent starting point for looking at human sexuality. Computational-Neuroscientists working within the paradigm have produced some interesting initial findings regarding the differences between male and female sexuality.
Assuming this generic dev though, there are a number of options they are presented with. There are many obvious sources for satiating this desire, and some of those involve coercion, or taking advantage of material obtained through coercion (I call this indirect coercion). There are though some factors mitigating where a given devotee will go to satiate these desires.
By now most everyone on the internet is familiar with with the "troll", that person who engages in disruptive or outright anti-social behavior often simply because they can. Trolls are everywhere, and sexual minorities are no stranger to their presence in their communities. What I find interesting is that trolls are in a unique position to affect the behavior of devotees. They are, in some ways, like dogs herding cattle, nipping at their heels to keep them in groups.
Trolling is a latter day pass time which generally involves finding idiots, and the internet has plenty of those, and mocking them relentlessly, sometimes treading into morally and legally questionable areas. Though really anyone can be trolled. I think though it is possible for there to be, in the parlance of 4Chan (and I cringe saying this) "trolling for moralfags/great justice" This isn't really anything new. Anyone familiar with the internet at large can tell you about infiltrating websites like Stormfront. Indeed, Anonymous recently hacked a white supremacist group disrupting their operations and conclusively linking Ron Paul to his despicable history of racism.
Regarding devoteeism, trolls have the ability to provide incentives for various behaviors. Consider the following...
I'm trying to expand on a point I raised a while ago. When we are treated like trash, it is ridiculous to expect us to behave any other way. We are still responsible for our own actions and by all means ought to place a concern of others suffering over our own sexual gratification, and indeed, some devs do. Though just as we must be careful of the consequences of our actions, so too must trolls and literally everyone else.
There is some evidence coming out now which finds that treating juvenile offenders on an individual basis is rarely successful compared to approaches which involve treating the entire family. This works to help alter the environment the offender is operating in, and help provide more incentives to improve.
Food for thought.

Disappointed in LaFave event
Shortly after arriving at state Rep. Beau LaFave's first coffee hour in Iron Mountain, it became glaringly apparent that not much thought or planning was put into this event. With no designated area set aside, we found the least-congested place to wait for Rep. LaFave to arrive.
Being in a busy restaurant, we ordered something while we waited.
When Mr. LaFave finally arrived, looking disheveled and 10 minutes late, he comfortably seated himself at a table occupied by a local Republican County officer. We waited for some kind of an address or a clue as to his agenda. None was forthcoming. People then started approaching his table. Seeing as this was to be how to proceed, we got in line.
Before many of us could talk with our representative, the owner, who was visually upset, confronted Mr. LaFave about the lack of advance notice concerning the event and how it was discouraging his lunch-hour business.
Mr. LaFave apologized to the owner, expressing dismay that no member of his staff had cleared or confirmed the event. Mr LaFave then asked if everyone present would please order something to support the business, even though some people were clearly not there to see or talk with him.
The lack of planning and scheduling of this event was unfortunate for all concerned.
His constituents took time out of their day to meet with him that morning. They wanted to hear from him and also to be able to talk with him in a comfortable and inviting setting.
Instead, what they encountered was a slipshod, put-together-at-the-last-minute event.
To say we were disappointed is an understatement. Most who had a chance to meet with him received no clear or concise answers.
If young Mr. LaFave cannot handle a simple coffee hour, how are we expected to believe he can handle representing us in the 108th District of Michigan in a qualified way?
