Revision as of 22:04, 31 August 2010
In paragraph:
In ubuntu 7.10 AMD64, replace lib64z1 and lib64z1-dev with zlib1g and zlib1g-dev in the above command. COULD SOMEBODY PLEASE DOUBLE-CHECK? You probably meant "In 32bit ubuntu 7.10 systems, ..." And yes, I this works. Heikki 12:10, 4 February 2008 (CET)
This page being about the bleeding edge versioning system installation, it would be useful to note that enfuse adds one more dependency to hugin: exiftools. You need to run
sudo apt-get install libimage-exiftool-perl before running it. Personally, I think exiftools is not a good choice for this. Use something that is smaller and more focused to just copying the EXIF data over. Why not use jhead that is already part of hugin distribution? Heikki 12:18, 4 February 2008 (CET)
Folder naming convention to build
I noticed libpano now uses cmake. cd build.libpano was missing. Fixed it. Wouldn't it better to use the same naming convention for hugin, like suggesting to create a build.hugin instead of hugin-build? esby 22:31, 3 October 2009 (UTC)
Error executing hugin
I'm using ubuntu 9.10, and after compiling and installing hugin, when I try executing it I get:
$ hugin
hugin: error while loading shared libraries: libhuginbase.so.0.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
$ which hugin
The deb package installs everything in /usr/local, and libhuginbase.so.0.0 is in /usr/local/lib/.
What am I wrong in? donPaolo 22:01, 1 January 2010 (UTC)
If autotools is not being used anymore, could we drop it from the compile list?

Don't miss a single recipe or gorgeous table setting idea!
Subscribe Now!
This past summer, Millo and Sam Haddad hosted the annual Table Set Go competition benefitting the SBH Morris I. Franco Community Cancer Canter in the seaside town of Elberon, N.J.
The Community Cancer Center is a tremendous resource for so many families in our community. Please watch the video above for amazing inspiration that may be of value to share with someone you know. For confidential assistance or any questions that you may have, please call the Community Cancer Center at (718)787-1800.
At the Table Set Go Event of 2012, several teams of talented and creative women competed to win the title of "Most Creative Table" by the well known queen of dessert bars, Amy Atlas.
The first dazzling table of the day, was styled by Robin Braca, Rachel Khafif, and Jill Khafif. This ladies tea, inspired by the one and only Coco Chanel, got oohs and ahhhs from all the women who flocked over to this classic setting. Upon first glance, you would think that this million dollar look cost a bundle, but when I interviewed these pretty ladies, I was so pleasantly surprised to hear that the white ceramic dishes were purchased from Marshalls, and the inexpensive chargers were from Macy's. They didn't hold back their table setting secrets as they described how they beaded pearls by Bead World one by one to border each charger, and sewed each napkin ring individually with camellias from M and J Trim in Manhattan. They even effortlessly pressed pearls into rolled fondant to create a cake that Coco herself would have been proud to put on her plate!
Flatware – by Diane Von Furstenburg from Neiman Marcus.
Stay tuned for a new peek at another table setting from the event every week!

Riviera Sunbed / 11.495 dkk
Designed by Povl B. Eskildsen
Riviera has it all. It is a sunbed, a bench, a coffee table and a guest bed. Designed in 1990, this versatile design has become an outdoor classic, appreciated for its flexibility and straightforward appearance. The slatted teak construction is adjustable in length and can easily be supplemented by a comfortable cushion.

- Material and care
Proper usage and maintenance
Proper usage and maintenance is vital for getting the most out of the valuable resources we have. Our designs are made to last for generations, but just like everything else, they need a little care to get there.
Stainless Steel
Stainless steel is a timeless and long-lasting material with a superb corrosion resistance – easy to maintain. The material strength enables designs with thin profiles and various forms and patterns. That makes it perfect for outdoor design in all kinds of wind and weather.
Use soapy water and wipe with a dry cloth. Stainless steel needs only to be cleaned for aesthetic considerations and to preserve corrosion resistance.
The steel might tarnish a little when used outdoors for a long time. You can freshen it up by using a polish such as Gleerustol metal polish which will easily remove the tarnish and protect the steel in the future.
When using special care products you should avoid all contact with wood in order not to damaging the surface. Do not use any kind of products containing chlorine as this will damage the surface and make it vulnerable to corrosion.
Winter storage
The product is functional in all types of wind and weather, all year round. However, during wintertime, it is advisable to store the furniture in an unheated room such as a garage or cellar.
Teak is commonly found in Southeast Asia, Central and South America. Our FSC-certified Teak comes from Central America, Brazil and Indonesia, while our non-certified Teak comes from plantations in Southeast Asia and Trinidad; managed to sustain a renewable and reliable supply of wood.
Teak is a heavy, hard and sturdy type of wood. The high content of natural oils makes it highly weather and rot resistant and is therefore a good choice for outdoor furniture.
Do a general cleaning when needed with a suitable wood cleaner and soft bristle brush. Rinse afterwards with clear water and let it dry. Note: Wipe off tables, benches and chairs after dinner and such with a dry cloth.
As the wood is untreated, the surface will patinate over time and eventually turn into a beautiful silvery grey colour. If you wish to preserve or intensify the original honey-golden colour, use a suitable furniture oil on a regular basis. No matter what you choose, the wood will be resistant to everyday wind and weather thanks to the high content of natural oils.
Winter storage
The product is usable in all types of wind and weather, all year round. However, during wintertime, it is advisable to store the furniture in an unheated room such as a garage or cellar.
Indoor use
The wood has been dried for outdoor use. Hence, if you wish to use the furniture indoors it may need to be re-tightened once in a while.

About the designer / Povl B. Eskildsen
Form does not follow function. Form and function go together. That is how Povl B. Eskildsen describes the essence of designing. And he is a man who knows what he's talking about, for he has created a long line of strong designs for both Danish and international companies. He was born in Jebjerg, Denmark, close to the Limfjord and qualified as an architect from the School of Architecture in Aarhus, Denmark, in 1986. Since then he has worked as an independent designer on creating designs that reflect the present-day age and lifestyle.

French toast
I believe in food recycling, i.e. when something is still edible, and there is a delicious and healthy way to eat it, then why not? We should never let our food spoil, even when there's overabundance of it! :-) Enjoy these delicious, savory French toasts, which make a perfect weekend breakfast.
German Zimtsterne (cinnamon almond cookies)
I always wanted to make these, and finally got the guts — oh boy, I wasn't really prepared for the amount of nitty-gritty with making these. I started with original German recipe that called for 500g of almonds, but that ended up being 2 full baking sheets and lots of sneaky snacking between steps ;-) But the result is good, and these cookies are worth the effort.
Yogurt drink
Drinking yogurt is a terrific drink for autumn — it tastes fresh, contains probiotic bacteria and makes a great dessert or a quick snack, not only during autumn. But during this time of the year it is especially important to keep the natural defense high against viruses and bacteria, and yoghurt is a superb ally in that! Did I mention it tastes great? ;-)
This recipe came to life when I was left with no fresh milk after a short travel — I had only one mini-bottle of a drinkable probiotic yogurt and some condensed milk for coffee (sic!). But against all odds, it worked out!
Plain muffins
Nothing says "hello autumn" like a batch of fresh muffins or cupcakes! :-) With this simple recipe, you gonna whip them up in no time, and they will be a perfect base for more fancy muffins with fruit (I love muffins with dried plum bits), chocolate chip muffins, caramel-stuffed ones or double-or-triple-chocolate ;-) Or savory ones: paprika, tomato, herbs, sunflower seeds, etc. It all starts with this recipe.

UFC officials today announced that Antonio Rogerio Nogueira's withdrawal from the Aug. 6 event has forced the cancellation of a planned co-feature contest with Rich Franklin.

current listening: fourth at the fillmores
On July 4, 1971, the Fillmore West shut its doors after serving as the performance haven to a new rock 'n' roll generation for nearly six years. To mark the occasion, along with more traditional Fourth of July honors, The Musical Box used this rainy day to spin records that were cut at the Fillmore West in San Francisco and the sister Fillmore East in New York during their glory years. This is music that lets freedom ring and then some.
+ Various artists – Fillmore: The Last Days (1972). A chronicle of a week's worth of shows that led up to the closing of the Fillmore West. Today this stands, even with occasional excesses, as a capsule of a vibrant Bay Area scene that dictated the tone of a national psychedelic rock movement. It's a Beautiful Day, Quicksilver, Tower of Power, Hot Tuna, the Grateful Dead and a ferocious young Santana highlight the farewell party.
+ Jefferson Airplane – Bless Its Little Pointed Head (1969). Combining recordings from the heralded Fillmores East and West, Pointed Head presents the Airplane at the height of its flight with a full crew at the ready. Paul Kantner mans the trippy Fat Angel, Marty Balin ignites the funk of Plastic Fantastic Lover, Jorma Kaukonen rides the blues wave of Rock Me Baby and Grace Slick pilots the psychedelic meditation of Bear Melt.
+ Aretha Franklin: Live at Fillmore West (1971). The Queen of Soul's landmark string of R&B hits began to subside at the dawn of the '70s. But her creative side hit a peak. With her underrated Spirit in the Dark album only a few months old, Franklin ceased being a jukebox, recruited soul music sax legend King Curtis and served up a string of Fillmore West shows that make up one of the most powerfully earthy records she ever issued.
+ Miles Davis – Black Beauty: Miles Davis at Fillmore West (1977). Cut in the spring of 1970 with a band that included an insanely eager Chick Corea on electric piano going toe to toe with Davis' trumpet outbursts, Black Beauty was a testament to how diverse billings were at the Fillmores and how eager Davis was to reach the audiences that gathered there. Black Beauty was released in Japan in 1977 and not until 1997 in the U.S.
+ The Allman Brothers Band: The Allman Brothers Band at Fillmore East (1971). Few live albums defined an entire genre, much less a band, than Fillmore East did with the Allmans. Southern rock pretty much began and ended with this record, although the set is best enjoyed as a blues party. But it was a strangely fateful one. No sooner did the record catch fire in the summer of 1971 than guitarist Duane Allman died in a motorcycle crash.
+ The Mothers – Fillmore East, June 1971 (1971). Cut at the height of Frank Zappa's Mothers alliance with ex-Turtles Mark Volman and Howard Kaylan, Fillmore was a true rock 'n' roll tent show that shifted from performance art extremes (especially in the vocals) to guitar mayhem and to jams of jazz-prog severity. The music was expertly tight even though the performance itself seemed so loose that it nearly imploded in on itself.

Houston-Area Tea Party Leader Had Ties to American Fascist Party.
By Emily Ramshaw
As recently as 2003, the president of the Greater Fort Bend County Tea Party had a very different title: director of propaganda for the American Fascist Party.
James Ives, a prominent Tea Party activist who has hosted statewide rallies and political debates and has been a regular contributor on conservative radio, was the AFP's fourth in command, commenting about the party's principles on a fascist message board. An image of Ives in what appears to be a black uniform with yellow shoulder patches can be seen in a 2006 promotional video for the party.
Ives tells a more nuanced story; the Richmond, Texas, resident says he stumbled across the fascist party - which supports extreme right-wing authoritarian regimes - online in the early 2000s as an "amateur political science student and frustrated novelist" and was merely curious.
"From my point of view, it was all pro-Constitution, pro-America," Ives said of the group, which appears to be defunct.
"I never did anything," he added. "There really weren't enough people involved to be a gathering, let alone a rally. It was basically a scattering of people across the continent just complaining."
He said he believed he'd uncovered an underground cabal - and decided to stick around to do research for a "political novel of intrigue."
"I thought, 'I can blow the lid off of this. - I can go inside and find out what's going on,'" Ives said.
Ives never wrote a novel. He did write a range of posts on the party's Yahoo message board, communicating with his fellow "blackshirts" and the party's chief organizer, a man who identified himself as the "Glorious Leader."
In one post, he channeled Benito Mussolini, the World War II-era Italian dictator and founder of that country's National Fascist Party, saying building up the fascist movement in America was "our spirit, our calling."
"It will be our greatest challenge, and our sweetest victory, to finally surpass this dark menace, this numbing threat from the shadows, and replace it with the pure sunbeam that is our Fascist Faith, our Fascist Truth," he wrote.
In another post, he blasts a fellow commenter's racist remarks, saying such members of the party make "the return of Fascist Faith to the pantheon of accepted beliefs that much more difficult."
"Tell me what I can do in Texas for you and I will try my utmost to comply," Ives added, signing off, "your honor-bound comrade."
Though Ives calls his past involvement with the party "a funny story," conservative lawmakers who have had dealings with the Tea Party activist found it alarming.
State Sen. Dan Patrick, R-Houston, whose radio station has regularly hosted Ives' political commentaries in recent years, said that if his past connections to the American Fascist Party were legitimate, the station would no longer put him on air. Patrick said Ives had "never been on our payroll, never been an employee." He called the promotional video and online postings "very disturbing, no matter how far in the past it is."
Ives said he had never seen the 2006 promotional video and did not participate in its production; while a photograph of him appears at the 36-second mark, and is the screencap for the online clip, he said the uniform was Photoshopped onto him.
But he said he did agree to be the group's "director of propaganda." One website updated as recently as last year still had him listed with that title.
"I think I was the only one" who volunteered for the position, Ives said, calling the fascist group "a chat room with a fancy title."
Ives and his wife have been active Tea Partiers since the political movement began in 2009. Ives spoke about "American exceptionalism" at a 2010 "Back to Basics" rally at the state Capitol, shared billing on a live 2011 radio broadcast with prominent conservative activists Michael Quinn Sullivan and Jonathan Saenz, and in 2012 hosted a U.S. Senate forum for Lt. Gov. David Dewhurst and the man who would later defeat him, U.S. Sen. Ted Cruz. As recently as July, he was listed on the website of Houston radio station KSEV - Patrick's station - as a regular contributor.
State Rep. Rick Miller, R-Sugar Land, who spoke at an event for the Greater Fort Bend County Tea Party last week, said he first heard about Ives' possible connections to fascism on Friday, in a meeting of concerned conservatives. "It does sound like something worth following up on," he said.
Debra Medina, a well-known Tea Party activist who ran against Gov. Rick Perry in the 2010 Republican primary, said she isn't familiar with Ives and isn't in a position to judge his dealings with the fascist group. But she said part of the challenge of working with the grassroots is that it's "so hard to know who you're working with sometimes."
"Even with the best intentions - and I can speak from my own experience - you can be judged by those who work around you and are supportive of you," she said. "It tends to tarnish the work that others are doing, and cause people to go, 'Here we go again.'"

Almost reached the earlier 890 target, made it to 883, but markets are having trouble breaking higher here. Looks like a bear flag (green) forming in the short run. If that breaks lower, the target would be about 815ish depending upon if/where it breaks.
Notice on the chart that it is following the bottom of the bear wedge (light blue up slopping line). We are also still following the inverted H&S neckline.
The bullish case is that we made a higher low and we remain in the blue line channel, which itself COULD still be a bullish wedge. Overall still looks like a battle. I give the bears the edge in the short run, but the bulls may win in the intermediate term. Long term, definitely still bearish.
Both the daily and weekly candlesticks right now look like spinning tops, this shows indecision.
Remember, it's bank failure Friday… bad news can come out of the blue, thus if you are long, my advice is to be careful. Same goes for being short, it's a dangerous market in both directions. Cash is always good in times of uncertainty.

Update Going into the Close
Posted byAmy Jamison at12:33 PM

It's time for our biennial serial review. This one feels kind of like being kicked when down because we did a big review to sync up Carleton and St. Olaf last winter, and then we did a voluntary cut last spring when the stock market decided to have a bigger say than usual in our collection development projects.
I only have to review the serials that were originally requested by the library (as opposed to those requested by departments, of which there are many), and only those that fall within the areas I serve (so literature, languages, music, American Studies, and linguistics). And this time around we have to make cuts again. And this time around we've already cut the low-hanging fruit so pretty much everything we still subscribe to is stuff I'd like to continue to subscribe to. So last time around I came up with some criteria that really helped, and this time I'm having to come up with newer, less definitive criteria.
Today's project was literary journals. We subscribe to several, six of which fall under my care, none of which I wanted to cut, some of which I have to cut. The two that we've had since the Beginning of Time I'm keeping, just on principle (well, and because they're good). These are Contemporary Review and Granta. For the rest, I'm checking the catalogs of our peer institutions, reading reviews in Ulrich's, paging through recent issues, reading their web sites, and generally mourning the fact that I even have to decide.
I'm also rankling a little at the current model for journal subscriptions that make paying for bundled packages so much easier than paying for individual subscriptions, but make backing out of bits and pieces of the bundle impossible. If I need to cut, I'm cutting the stuff we actually selected rather than the fluff that's padding those bundles. What a pain.

Brock Holt's RBI triple leads Red Sox past Orioles
Tiebreaking hit in seventh inning gives Boston a 4-2 win
Brock Holt hit a tiebreaking triple in the seventh inning and scored on Jonathan Herrera's suicide squeeze, lifting the Boston Red Sox over the Baltimore Orioles 4-2 on Saturday.
David Ortiz had a solo homer and two hits for the World Series champion Red Sox, who have won three of four.
Nelson Cruz had a pair of run-scoring singles for the Orioles, who had a three-game winning streak halted.
Junichi Tazawa (1-0) pitched 1 1-3 hitless innings of relief. Koji Uehara struck out three after a leadoff walk for his fourth save.
The benches emptied briefly in the seventh after Bud Norris (0-2) threw high and tight to David Ross, who was trying to sacrifice. Ross yelled something, but Orioles catcher Matt Wieters stepped in between and both sides retreated to the dugouts.

As Japanese head to the polls Sunday, Shinzo Abe is expected to become Japan's prime minister for the second time.
The election takes place as nationalistic rhetoric is on the rise, and while the country remains locked in a bitter dispute with its chief rival, China, over islands both countries claim.
'Pride And Honor'
The battle over the islands heated up last summer.
In mid-August, boats filled with about 150 Japanese activists approached one of the islands, part of a chain that the Japanese call Senkaku; the Chinese, Diaoyu.
Satoru Mizushima, leader of a nationalist group called Ganbare Nippon! — Go For It, Japan! — wrapped a rope around his waist, slipped into the green waters and swam toward shore.
Battered by waves, Mizushima climbed up the coral shoreline and — in his eyes — reclaimed the island for Japan.
Mizushima says he planned the landing as a response to a group from Hong Kong that had earlier landed on the island and claimed it for China.
Back at his office in Tokyo this week, Mizushima says more is at stake than an empty rock in the East China Sea.
"This is not just about having a small island taken away," Mizushima says. "It means Japanese national sovereignty as well as pride and honor are taken away."
Few 'Friendly Feelings' Toward China
The dispute exploded in September after Japan's government bought several of the islands. Anti-Japanese demonstrations erupted across China, horrifying most Japanese.
But Mizushima was delighted. He saw it as a wake-up call for his countrymen to the threats Japan faces.
"Japanese people are too peace-oriented," Mizushima says. "I want China to take more actions, like invading the Senkaku Islands and organizing demonstrations in China and burning Japanese factories. So I want to thank China for doing it."
Mizushima's island landing was a political stunt, but many analysts say Japan's rightward tilt is real. A recent poll showed a record 81 percent of Japanese do not hold "friendly feelings" toward China.
Even some on the right worry about growing nationalism. Kunio Suzuki, an adviser with Issuikai, a far-right political group that honors Japan's imperial family and traditional culture, was against Mizushima's trip to the island.
"That's dangerous," Suzuki says. "I think the whole society is shifting to the right. The more right-wing people have a louder voice."
Years ago, he says, many people supported Japan's pacifist Constitution — which renounces the right to go to war. But these days, Suzuki continues, "there are many people who think the Constitution is bad, it should be changed and we should change from a self-defense force to conventional military."
Legislatively, that would be very hard to do in Japan. And it wouldn't go over well in East Asia, which still has terrible memories of Japanese aggression during World War II.
Domestic Disquiet
A number of factors seem to be driving rhetoric to the right in Japan. Japanese people are exhausted by the country's interminable economic problems. Suzuki says they're also tired of the country's revolving-door leadership.
"Japanese leaders don't even last a year in power. They have no capability to deal with foreign affairs," he says. "This trend increased after the Democratic Party of Japan came into power ... so people became frustrated and found the DPJ useless and weak."
Events in recent days have only compounded that sentiment, as the island nation's neighbors have appeared to taunt Japan. On Wednesday, North Korea fired a rocket over the Japanese island of Okinawa. And Thursday, Japan said a Chinese government plane flew near the disputed island chain, which Japan effectively controls.
But some analysts say much of the right-wing rhetoric is coming from Japanese politicians — and that most ordinary Japanese remain politically moderate.
"The nationalist reaction is mostly related to the elite here," says Jeffrey Kingston, director of Asian studies at Temple University's Japan Campus. "I think at the grass-roots level, there hasn't been much of a reaction. We haven't seen anti-Chinese demonstrations outside the embassy. We haven't seen Chinese businesses affected or smashed or boycotted."
On the streets of Tokyo this week, people were more interested in talking about domestic issues.
"I'm against increasing military power," says Nobutaka Hannuki, a 30-year-old who works in marketing. "What they should do now is restore the tsunami disaster area."
Nearly two years after the massive earthquake, much of Japan's northeast coast has yet to be rebuilt.
Hannuki, who spent six months in the country's self-defense forces, is worried his country could spark an arms race. If Japan builds up its military, he says, he expects other nations to do the same in what is becoming an increasingly dangerous neighborhood.
We turn now to NPR's Jim Zarroli, who is in Newtown, Connecticut. Hello, Jim.
JIM ZARROLI, BYLINE: Hi, Audie.
CORNISH: So, Jim, how is the town coping at this point? What are you seeing there?
ZARROLI: Well, I think, you know, of course, as you'd expect, people are pretty much in shock. They've never had anything remotely like this happen here. You know, I talked to a woman who's had three kids who went to the school. They're not there now. And she said she's just still trying to absorb it, and that was pretty much the response I got, you know, among the people I talked to.
CORNISH: What can you tell us about the school, Sandy Hook Elementary?
ZARROLI: Well, you know, it's got a very good reputation in town. People said it's a very good school, very good staff. I talked to a woman who actually worked there until about four years ago. She said that the teachers were terrific, the principal was terrific. It was also very safe. I mean, you had to press a buzzer to get in. And if they didn't know who you were, you didn't get in. And so I think no one ever expected that it would be the kind of place where something like this would happen.
CORNISH: And, similarly, Newtown itself in terms of whether or not it's considered a safe place or just what kind of community is it.
ZARROLI: You know, it's a nice close-knit, quiet town, and I would say it kind of looks like a New England village. But I would describe it more like kind of a white collar suburb. It's - this whole part of Connecticut has a lot of people who work, you know, in insurance and technology, things like that. I mean, it's a very comfortable place. It's far from the city. It just has its own sort of quiet rhythm to it. It's a nice town. And, again, just not the kind of place where - you don't feel in danger at all walking around. You know, you never would expect something like this to happen here. And it's, you know, it's left a lot of people here in shock.
CORNISH: So far, do you get any sense that there will be any community gathering in any fashion tonight?
ZARROLI: You know, I'm at a Methodist church right now. They've scheduled a prayer vigil for tonight. They also sort of opened the church, or the sanctuary, so that anyone who wants to come in can come in. I've seen some people go in - mainly a lot of reporters, though, are here. You know, I saw another church, I think a Catholic church, that had its doors open so people could come in and pray if they wanted to.
Beyond that, I haven't heard about any kind of, you know, big vigil. But it's not that kind of town. I mean, it's just kind of a sort of a low-key place. And, you know, what they do from now on, you know, I don't know. But it's not the kind of place where, you know, you're going to see any kind of, I don't know. It's not the kind of place where I think they would have something like that.
CORNISH: NPR's Jim Zarroli in Newtown, Connecticut. Jim, thank you.
ZARROLI: You're welcome. Transcript provided by NPR, Copyright NPR.

Audit: Missteps gave Long Beach $5M deficit
Widespread budgetary missteps led to Long Beach ending fiscal year 2012 more than $5 million in the red, according to the city's independent annual audit.
The report's summary listed 31 weaknesses in the city's financial structure that contributed to the deficit.
Long Beach officials, who discovered a deficit a few months after a change in city leadership in 2011, said the city has taken corrective action to fix all of the weaknesses, which ranged from unsustainable procurement practices to problems with the way the city handles its revenue streams.
City Manager Jack Schnirman, who was selected in December 2011, said the audit confirms the city's March 2012 projection that the city's annual operating deficit was $10.25 million in fiscal 2012. The audit places the figure at $9.2 million -- a number that takes into account the city's midyear budget cuts, he said.
James Hennessy, a spokesman and committeeman for the Long Beach Republicans who served on the City Council from 2004 to 2008, cited the $5.05 million fund balance deficit noted in the audit and said that proves Democrats overstated the severity of Long Beach's problems.
"They didn't need to declare a fiscal crisis," Hennessy said.
Schnirman said that claim was an attempt by Republicans to cover up their mismanagement.
The audit is "both shocking and educational" in that it "sheds light on how the finances of the city were able to deteriorate over a period of years," Schnirman said.
"It's good budgetary detective work," he said.
Long Beach's government changed from Republican to Democratic control with the November 2011 elections. City Manager Charles Theofan left at the end of the year. City officials discovered the deficit a few months later.
Attempts to reach Theofan were not successful.
The outside audit by Albrecht Viggiano Zureck & Co. of Hauppauge, required of every city and town in New York State, shows the city has a long way to go to repair itself financially, said Stephen Antaki, a partner with the auditing firm.
Antaki told the City Council Tuesday that the number of weaknesses was "substantial," adding, "You're not going to make that up in a year."
Schnirman said the city has a multiyear plan to address the audit findings.
Long Beach has moved toward a "return to structurally balanced budgeting" in the past year, Schnirman said.
The city council on Tuesday approved an $83.4 million budget that officials said allows the city to go forward with paying down its deficit.
The deficit is scheduled to be fully paid off by 2015, Schnirman has said.
The fiscal 2013-14 budget carries a 1.5 percent tax increase.

Organizing competitions is not a walk in the park, so many thing you have to worry and stress about. A very stressed out promoter may result in a poorly organized event which in the end affects the fighters and it's supporters.
The main purpose for building this site is because I got tired of waiting for my teammates match results. I figured, if promoters were given a tool that can update match results real time maybe it can be published to the fighter's teams / family / friends for a quick update. I think that it will help in letting the fighters know when their matches will start making it easier on the wait!
Create and Manage Events easily! With a few clicks you'll be configuring your event to you and your participants' needs. Torneyo will provide you with everything you need to run your BJJ Tournament efficiently.
The promoter will be provided a tablet application which will be used to update the winners of the brackets. The bracket results are available online for the fighter's family, friends and team to see, giving them a general perspective of how he/she is doing in the competition.
A registered fighter of Torneyo will be provided a record of his/her past matches from all the registered competitions he/she has participated in. Promoters will have access to reports and stats of the past events.
This site is a work in progress. We're trying our best to get as much local competitions out there that does not have a bracketing system to start using this tool. Meanwhile, check out our past events and let us know what we can do better!
It's free!
We're still working on our registration part of the site so we're doing an approval system for now. Give us your email and we'll make an account for you!

Irrigating Hay and Forage
Solutions for
Hay & Forage
Pivots and linears, portable Solid Set, permanent set, and traveler irrigation are all very effective modes of irrigating hay and forage crops. Trust in the Rotator® and Big Gun® for your chosen system type.
The center pivot offers a high-uniformity system with low labor input. Use the Rotator® for optimal performance, the Accelerator for hybrid Rotator® Technology, or the Orbitor if you're looking for the benefits of an off-axis sprinkler. The commonality of the 3TN "one" Nozzle system and the easy-to-use dual- and triple-nozzle clips add to the efficiency of this mechanized system.
Portable or permanent Solid Set systems are ideal in smaller-sized or unusually shaped fields where it is not practical or possible to use a pivot. With no vibration or risk of theft, the R2000WF and R33 are "better than brass." Typical spacings for the R2000WF are 30' x 40', 40' x 40', or 40' x 50'. Typical spacings for the R33 and R33LP are 40' x 50', 50' x 50', or 40' x 60'.
The Big Gun® Sprinkler on a traveler offers mobility with low labor costs. Travelers can irrigate smaller and rectangular-shaped fields that are not practical to irrigate with a linear system or pivot. Placement and set up of the equipment in the field is for the most part mechanized. These systems are also easily adaptable to incorporate wastewater. They require higher pressure and have little to no filtration expenses. All of the above system types are enhanced by the use of Nelson Control Valves for proper air and water management.

When Bill Gross started Pimco's most recent effort to expand into stocks three years ago, he vowed not to repeat the mistake he made in the 1980s, when his bond traders overwhelmed a handful of equity managers at strategy meetings, eventually prompting them to quit.
Last week, the manager of the world's largest bond fund at Pacific Investment Management Co. in Newport Beach, California, compared long-term returns from equities to a "Ponzi scheme" and said returns of 6.6 percent above inflation, known as the Siegel Constant, won't be seen again. "The cult of equity is dead," Gross, 68, said in an Aug. 2 interview with Betty Liu on Bloomberg Television.
"I can imagine the equity managers cringed the same way corporate-credit managers cringed when he said earlier in the decade he wouldn't buy a corporate bond at any price," said Bill Powers, who worked at Pimco from 1991 until 2010 and was a member of its investment and executive committees. "Bill will always speak his mind about value in the markets."
The dismissal of a long-held belief among stock pickers highlights the challenge Pimco faces in building an equities business while aligning its managers with an economic philosophy outlined by bond king Gross that predicts diminished returns across asset classes. Since starting its first equity strategy in 2010, Pimco has gathered $3.2 billion in the four main stock funds, less than 1 percent of the firm's $1.8 trillion, held back by investor aversion to equity funds and subpar performance. The firm's four main stock funds are trailing a majority of rivals this year.
'Invest Globally'
Neel Kashkari, the former head of the U.S. government's Troubled Asset Relief Program who was hired in December 2009 and oversees Pimco's global equities, said Gross's comments are consistent with Pimco's outlook for stocks in a "new normal" environment of below-average economic growth.
"This makes it even more important to invest globally and actively select the companies best-positioned to deliver attractive returns," Kashkari, 39, said in an e-mail.
Pimco's first two equity strategies, EqS Pathfinder Fund and EqS Emerging Markets Fund, account for about $2.6 billion of the firm's stock assets. Neither is beating its benchmark index in 2012, and both lagged behind at least 62 percent of peers as of Aug. 2, according to data compiled by Bloomberg.
EqS Emerging Markets Fund, which began in March 2011, and Pimco's third equity strategy, EqS Dividend Fund, which started in December, have attracted less than $900 million in combined assets. Gross's Total Return Exchange-Traded Fund, an ETF variation on his flagship fixed-income mutual fund, has soared to $2.4 billion in assets since it was started five months ago.
First Experiment
Pimco first experimented with stocks in the mid-1980s, a foray that was short-lived when the equity managers quit after about two years. Lessons from that time, when bond traders would shoot down equity managers' bullish arguments for stocks during strategy meetings, led Gross to try to give the equities team more freedom, he told Bloomberg Markets magazine in its August 2010 issue.
"Those sessions basically said, 'Hey, we're a bond shop. This is what we're going to do. It's the party line,'" Gross said in the 2010 interview. "If I've been a problem, then I can be the solution in terms of allowing equity investments to grow and prosper."
Another effort was set up in 1999 by Pimco's then-parent company, which created an equity unit separate from the bond business to take advantage of the Pimco name. Five years later the unit was one of several fund companies accused by the Securities and Exchange Commission of allowing a hedge fund to engage in market timing, a practice of making short-term trades to exploit market inefficiencies, and was dissolved after paying fines and repayments to settle the lawsuits. It didn't admit or deny wrongdoing.
'Stepchild' Funds
Pimco's latest stock effort came as Gross anticipated an end to the 30-year bond rally, which helped fuel Pimco's growth since Gross co-founded the firm in 1971. The prediction was undermined as Europe's sovereign-debt crisis sent investors to the perceived safety of bonds and out of stocks. Stock funds have seen client withdrawals in every year since 2008.
Investors have pulled about $197 billion from stock funds since the start of 2010 through this June, according to data from the Investment Company Institute, a trade group based in Washington.
"No one should be surprised that Pimco equity funds are a stepchild," said Joshua Brown, vice president of investment for New York-based Fusion Analytics Investment Partners LLC, which has part of its $300 million under management in Pimco bond funds. "What they have against them is distaste for open-end mutual funds, dislike for equities and the fact that it's a bond shop in everyone's mind."
Gross's Apology
Gross's forecast also prompted an ill-timed move out of U.S. Treasurys last year, resulting in the worst performance for his $263 billion Total Return Fund relative to peers based on records going back to 1995. Gross, who apologized to clients for the underperformance in a letter calling 2011 a "stinker," rebounded this year to beat 98 percent of rivals. The fund has also outperformed 98 percent of peers over five years.
Pimco has added smart stock pickers who will benefit from the firm's resources and be compatible with its macroeconomic view of a larger global role for developing nations, said Kashkari, who also worked as an investment banker at Goldman Sachs Group Inc. The firm, which manages $1.82 trillion in assets, has hired about 50 people for its equity strategies, which are all globally focused.
Franklin Team
Anne Gudefin and Charles Lahr, former Franklin Resources Inc. managers, were brought in to oversee the first stock fund, EqS Pathfinder. The $2.13 billion fund's managers follow a deep- value strategy of picking stocks they consider to be cheaper than they're worth. In the 12 months through Aug. 2, it declined 0.2 percent, putting it ahead of 66 percent of similarly managed funds, according to data compiled by Bloomberg. This year the fund returned 4.1 percent, trailing 62 percent of peers.
The Pathfinder fund follows a more conservative strategy and tends to hold more cash so it hasn't benefited as much from this year's stock rally, said Karin Anderson, a senior mutual- fund analyst for Morningstar Inc. The MSCI ACWI Index of global stocks is up 6.2 percent and the U.S. benchmark Standard & Poor's 500 Index has risen 11 percent this year through Aug. 3.
Gross's Total Return Fund returned 7.6 percent this year through Aug. 2 and the ETF version gained about 8.3 percent since it started trading in March. Pimco's bond funds on average outperformed 59 percent of peers this year through June 30, according to data compiled by Chicago-based Morningstar.
Downswing Protection
Masha Gordon, who joined Pimco from Goldman Sachs, manages the $519 million Emerging Markets Fund, which fell 22 percent in the 12 months ended Aug. 2, putting it behind 90 percent of peers. The fund declined 0.5 percent this year, trailing 89 percent of rivals. The fund uses tail-risk hedging to protect investors from losses during extreme volatility.
"In equities, we want to deliver outperformance over the three-to-five-year period," Kashkari said. "The common element is protection, so the funds may give up some upside to protect during the downswings."
Gross, in an August investment outlook published on Pimco's website, said the 6.6 percent real return that stocks produced annually over the past century were the result of a flaw much like that of a Ponzi scheme. In Ponzi schemes, named after 1920s swindler Charles Ponzi, money from newer investors is typically used to pay earlier participants.
If stocks returned almost twice as much as the 3.5 percent annual economic growth over the period, that implies that investors participated disproportionately in the wealth that was being created, at the expense of workers and government, who saw real wages and tax revenue shrink in proportion.
Debt Reduction
With governments forced to reduce their debt, the decline in real wage growth eventually reaching an end and GDP growth slowing, the return rates of stocks will suffer, Gross said. So will returns on bonds, for that matter, as yields on long-term Treasurys have fallen to 2.55 percent, he said.
Pimco's two biggest and longest-running equity funds have been less volatile than their benchmark indexes. The standard deviation of return, a measure of price swings, for Pimco EqS Pathfinder was about 16 percent over the past year, compared with 22 percent for the MSCI World Index, according to data compiled by Bloomberg. Pimco EqS Emerging Markets Fund had a standard deviation of return of 25 percent, compared with 27 percent for the MSCI Emerging Markets Index.
Pimco EqS Dividend Fund, started last December, is run by Brad Kinkelaar and Cliff Remily, who joined from Thornburg Investment Management. The fund, which invests in dividend- paying stocks globally, returned 6.2 percent this year through Aug. 2, trailing 72 percent of rivals.
More Time
The firm opened a fourth equity strategy in April, Pimco EqS Long/Short Fund, which lets clients participate in long-term stock ownership while seeking to limit losses when markets turn bearish by holding cash or selectively betting against securities. The strategy is run by Geoffrey Johnson, who joined Pimco in April from Catamount Capital Management LLC, and uses the same investment process as a hedge fund Johnson oversaw since 2003.
"It's going to take more time to see what these managers can do with these tools at their disposal," said Anderson of Morningstar. "It could be a hindrance if they're constantly trying to think about this macro view and force stocks in and out based on it."
Institutional Requirements
One barrier to attracting equity assets for Pimco may be that institutional investors such as pension funds generally require a three-year performance record before they can buy a fund, said Fusion Analytics' Brown.
Pimco is focusing marketing of the funds to its long-term clients first and expects the customer base to eventually be about 50 percent retail and 50 percent institutional like the rest of the firm, Kashkari said.
"We are taking a measured and deliberate approach to grow organically, hire the very best people and integrate them fully and this is going to take seven to 10 years," Kashkari said. "We're in this for the long term and will do whatever it takes to make sure this is a viable part of the business."
