I'd love to use Mint.com but it's not available in the UK. Any idea when it might be available in the UK, or are there any recommended UK equivalents?
Money Dashboard finally went public beta recently | |||
Xero Personal may do what you want. I havn't used their 'personal' offering myself but I do use their business version daily and love it, I don't know how I'd keep up with things without it. Edit: One drawback is that it Xero Personal doesn't offer automatic import (that I could find). You will still need to export your accounts from your banks website. | |||||
I personally use Buxfer, since it allows you to do both automatic and by hand transactions (since im in mexico and my bank is not supported by mint I needed hand made transactions). Its simple and easy but have a lot of info and reports, i like it :) | |||
is an australian site that supports international bank accounts and may suit your needs. Slick interface and reports/categories/budgets and regular synch. | |||
Try out money.strands.com. Pretty much all the functionality you'd expect from a money management app. | |||
PocketSmith would be also be worth checking out! Other tools include:
| |||
Has anyone here used lovemoney.com? Our account aggregation service went live last November. lovemoney.com provides users with the opportunity to manage all of their money in one place. The application is particularly useful for monitoring overspending and for setting savings goals. I would be interested to hear your feedback. Cheers | ||||
BudgetPulse would be worth checking out! | |||
Yodlee.com are the guys who write the engine that almost all of these sites use (including Mint.com). They have an own label site based on the engine at https://moneycenter.yodlee.com It works very well, although it not as pretty as some of the others. | |||
France has Linxo, roughly the same features as Mint, I use it for my bank account (Société Générale), it does the job. | |||
Here are some alternatives you might find useful. They are available outside of the US. | |||||
You may give InEx Finance a try and see if it works for you. They position themselves as an international service by supporting most popular world currencies. Direct synchronization with bank accounts is not available. However, they offer many import options to upload bank statements (ofx, qif) and bulk cash transactions (csv). | ||||

Very nice.
Though I could not caution all I still might warn a few: Don't raise your hand to raise no flag atop no ship of fools. - Robert Hunter
Looks wonderful Mike. As always, its a pleasure working with you. Not just great craftsmanship, but top notch customer service!
The difference between try and triumph is a little "umph"! NO EXCUSES!!!!!!!
Mike you have any openings? Looking to get a knife rehandled. Awesome work always my friend
Just thought I would add these to this thread too. These are some of the very first handles I ever made.... that were photo worthy. The Ironwood/Maple combo was the first I ever sold. I really had a thing for white spacers.
Do I need to trade you my first-born to get that one with the turquoise in it?
Im pretty sure its gone...but if not, Ill take the kid and send money to mhenry for you I need someone to watch the dog while Im at work.
Things are pretty crazy at work again, but I have managed to get a couple ready for knives.

Freedom with Positive Psychology Flourish
Posted by Dr. Judy at 3:00 am
How do you know if and when YOU are flourishing?
And how does FREEDOM add to well-being and life satisfaction?
Who do you have to thank besides yourself when you are living
your 24 character strengths?
America…"Land of the free and home of the brave." Both values upon
which we built our independent nation. Dr. Martin Seligman, positive
psychology pioneer and author of the acclaimed book, Flourish, defines
flourishing as: "…Happiness, flow, meaning, love, gratitude, accomplishment,
growth, better relationships – constitutes human flourishing."
In the USA, this July 4th, I salute all those who have helped us flourish.
Many who have risked their lives or paid the ultimate price to assure our
country remains free.
Here is my July 4th wrapped in red, white, and blue take on freedom
and flourishing:
Freedoms ~ Free speech, free expression, free to live life your way with
well-being, your reward for your life well-lived.
Remembrance ~ Gratitude to those who serve to keep your country free
so you may walk though your world safe and secure.
Encouragement ~ Every day is yours to creatively, curiously explore.
To welcome and savor life. A "Bring it on!" attitude.
Engage ~ Enhance, enlighten, enjoy, evolve, empower, and embrace all
life has to offer you. You are free!
Duty ~ To yourself and others; To make choices that help you thrive.
Service. You pay love forward, a well-being win win.
Opportunity ~ To live, love, grow and use your strengths in a country
affording you opportunities to morph into lovely Flow.
Mindfulness ~ Pause and appreciate your fortune to live in a country
that embraces diversity. Let all spirits soar. Hope rings!
Let Freedom ring ~ mine from the Liberty Bell!
With patriotic, wave the flag, deep gratitude to all who serve to keep us free.
God Bless you all!
My appreciation for our nation and my rights to life, liberty, &
pursuit of happiness sky-rocketed after visiting Cuba and seeing what
people there lived did not have: freedom and essentials for everyday life.
See the Cubans' amazing spirit and beautiful scenery in my book:
Photo Adventures in Cuba ~ Unlock Your Power of Positivity!
Now a best-seller on Amazon ~ Kindle
I'd love to hear from you!
Just send me your questions, and I will answer in a future blog.

The nominees this year include returnees Zooey Deschanel (for "New Girl"), Tina Fey (for "30 Rock") and Amy Poehler (for "Parks and Recreation"), plus two stars of two new shows: Julia Louis-Dreyfus (for "Veep") and Lena Dunham (for "Girls").
If Deschanel, Fey and Poehler couldn't beat winner Laura Dern last year, they don't provide much competition, even if two of them are Golden Globes co-hosts. Though sentimental value (the last season of "30 Rock"!) might boost both Baldwin and Fey, she doesn't think she'll win; she casts her vote for BFF Poehler.
We think it's more likely, however, that Louis-Dreyfus will take it, given her Emmy win and "Veep" creator Armando Iannucci's U.K. roots (again, foreign press decides this one). But the one we're rooting for is Dunham, who plays a character who feels more real and authentic than most of what's on television.
Best performance by an actress in a mini-series or motion picture made for television
"Game Change" may or may not win, but Julianne Moore as Sarah Palin will, even if her competition is Nicole Kidman ("Hemingway & Gellhorn"), Jessica Lange ("American Horror Story: Asylum"), Sienna Miller ("The Girl") and Sigourney Weaver ("Political Animals").
"Julianne Moore put so much heart and soul in that," her director Ray Roach said. "There's so much political masking that goes on, you need someone who is a fully engaged human being first and foremost, beyond a candidate, and I thought Julianne did an amazing job." So did the Emmys.
Best performance by an actor in a mini-series or motion picture made for television
Like Julianne Moore, Woody Harrelson will probably take this category.
But also in the running are Emmy-winner Kevin Costner for "Hatfield & McCoys," Benedict Cumberbatch for "Sherlock," Toby Jones for "The Girl" and Clive Owen for "Hemingway & Gellhorn."
"Game Change" is a little too much of an American story for the Hollywood Foreign Press Association to sweep, so they might be willing to give this one to a more deserving Brit -- Cumberbatch. His modern-day Sherlock Holmes is enigmatic, charismatic and wholly singular. Plus, it's his year, what with also playing the mysterious villain in the new "Star Trek" movie and the dragon and the Necromancer in "The Hobbit."
Best performance by an actor in a supporting role in a series, mini-series or motion picture made for television
After this past season of "Homeland," is there any question who should win?
Still, Mandy Patinkin has some worthy rivals, including Ed Harris for "Game Change" (and he just might win), Eric Stonestreet for "Modern Family" (an awards favorite for comedy, but unfortunately he's going against the drama guys), Danny Huston for "Magic City" and Max Greenfield for "New Girl."
Patinkin plays his character Saul with such nuance, fans of the show are still guessing whether or not he's the mole in the CIA -- complicated by his rise in power at the end of last season. "I have my own theory," Patinkin told CNN. "As a matter of fact, I write my own theories underneath everything I say. And part of the fun for me is when I hit bingo, and get what the writers were doing."
Best performance by an actress in a supporting role in a series, mini-series or motion picture made for television
Can the Dowager Countess take home the Golden Globe now that Jessica Lange has been promoted from supporting to lead on "American Horror Story: Asylum"? For Maggie Smith's sake, we would say yes.
"Downton Abbey" deserves some love, and there's no better recipient this year, considering the actress is also up against Jennifer Lawrence for best actress for musical or comedy (and there's no chance there).
Still, it's not in the bag, and Hayden Panettiere ("Nashville"), Archie Panjabi ("The Good Wife"), Sofia Vergara ("Modern Family") and Sarah Paulson (who is nominated for "Game Change") are all in the running. We say Smith is the queen of zingers, and who better to liven up the Globes with a well-timed spike? We do hope she's interrupting something.

A culture of censorship
All journalists who apply for a government-issued Israeli Press Card must sign documents agreeing to the military censorship. According to the agreement, journalists will not publish security information that could benefit Israel's enemies or harm the state.
Breaking the rule could result in card revocation, and foreign journalists could lose their visas to work there.
In recent years, the censorship mechanism for checking scripts and pictures has rarely been practiced. Controls over content have faded more and more with the Internet as more freedom of information passes into the public domain.
Recent news of Prisoner X's case prompted Australian Foreign Minister Bob Carr to request an internal report.
"I'm advised in the form of an interim report that the Australian government was informed in February 2010, though intelligence channels, that the Israeli authorities had detained a dual Australian-Israeli citizen, and they provided the name of the citizen, in relation to serious offenses under Israeli national security legislation," Carr told a Senate committee Thursday.
He did not mention what the alleged "serious offenses" were.
Carr said Australia sought specific assurances from Israel, such as that the detainee would get legal representation of his choosing and that he would not be mistreated.
"At no stage during his detention did the Australian government receive any requests from the individual or his family to extend consular support," Carr said.
"The Australian government was advised through intelligence channels on December 16, 2010, (of) this individual's death on the previous day, and the deceased's family had been notified by Israeli authorities."
The Australian Embassy in Tel Aviv assisted in returning the body to Australia, Carr said.

Theodor Pištěk – Ecce Homo
- Place: Veletržní Palace (Contacts)
- Date: 26.09.2012 - 20.01.2013
- Type: Exhibition
Exhibition curators: Martin Dostál, Helena Musilová (National Gallery in Prague)
Asistent: Jana Šmídmajerová (National Gallery in Prague)
One of the main parts of the so-called "autumn season 2012 in the Fair Trade Palace" will be the hitherto most extensive retrospective exhibition of the oeuvre of the Czech painter, draughtsman, costume designer and designer, Theodor Pištěk. It will offer not only his paintings and drawings but also four large space installations, created directly for the architecture of the Fair Trade Palace.
The exhibition "Ecce Homo" aims at presenting all significant periods in Pištěk's oeuvre. Besides his today legendary photorealist paintings (let us note that Pištěk is the only local artist who consistently analysed the principles of Photo- or Hyperrealism in his work), it will also be his abstracting objects dating to the 1960s (variously cut and deformed parts of motors and radiators) and drawings from the cycle "Where Will I Live Next Time" as far as to his most recent installations. The bridging subject of the exhibition is the man and the civilization and Theodor Pištěk as an artist exploring the possibilities of various approaches to space in fine arts - from photorealist works to three-dimensional installation.

'Maris Pacifici quod vulgo Mar del Zur' map (Pacific Ocean, currently known as the South Sea) by Abraham Ortelius
European imaginings of the Great South Land
Map by Abraham Ortelius, hand-coloured print from an engraved copper plate published by Plantin Press, Antwerp, 1595.
Ortelius's map included up-to-date information from European explorers who had visited the Pacific. It also reproduced ideas about the Southern Hemisphere from ancient Greek times. Made before any European is known to have set foot on the Australian continent, Maris Pacifici perpetuated the northern belief that at the bottom of the world was a great south land.
Trepang specimen
Makassar fishermen's journey to Australia
From at least 1700 until 1907, hundreds of fishermen sailed each year from Makassar on the island of Sulawesi, now in Indonesia, to the northern Australian coast. They voyaged to this place they called 'Marege' in search of a valuable delicacy known as trepang — edible sea cucumbers.
Fishermen arrived each December and camped along the Arnhem Land coast, catching, boiling and drying trepang. They met, traded and worked with local Aboriginal people. Then, each April, as the monsoon winds began to blow, the fishermen returned to Makassar with their holds carrying trepang to be traded north to China.
Trepang include several species of the class Holothuroidea. They live mostly in tropical waters and are usually 10 to 50 centimetres long, although some grow to more than a metre.
Listen to 'From Makassar to Marege' to the Museum: Trepang processing industry in Arnhem Land' audio
Curator Alison Mercieca detailed her research on the trepang in a presentation at the National Museum on 9 July 2008.
Baler shell
Indigenous journeys of exchange
For thousands of years the Indigenous people of northern Australia traded shells, ochre, feathers and other materials with their neighbours on the continent and beyond it.
Baler shell was collected in the Gulf of Carpenteria in Australia's north and traded south and west across Australia. With each exchange the value increased. On the coast, shells were used for water carriers and scrapers. In Central Australia they became sacred and ceremonial objects.
This exchange connected Aboriginal people in Australia's north to others in Central Australia and as far south as the present-day Flinders Ranges in South Australia.
This baler shell, cut through the whorl section, is from the early 1900s.
Captain James Cook's magnifier
Navigating the Pacific
This tortoiseshell magnifier was used by British naval officer Captain James Cook, probably to look closely at maps or specimens.
Cook sailed to the Pacific three times in the 1770s, charting and claiming places previously unknown to Europeans, including the east coast of Australia.
The magnifier came into the possession of astronomer William Bayly on Cook's last voyage. Bayly sailed twice with Cook, taking observations that would assist British navigators to establish their longitude.
Despite what the inscription says on its elaborate silver case, the magnifier may not have been a gift. After Cook was killed in Hawaii in 1779, his possessions were auctioned 'before the mast' and Bayly may have bought the memento then. This was a common way of raising money for a dead sailor's family.

Embroidered map samplers
European voyages of discovery
These samplers were probably sewn by a young Englishwoman in about 1800. She drew her maps onto the silk from a pattern created to teach ladies geography. The maker has added her own touches, tracing Captain James Cook's three voyages into the Pacific with tiny stitches. The samplers show the new British settlement in Australia at Port Jackson, founded in the wake of Captain James Cook's voyage.
Sitting in an English drawing room, the embroiderer has sewn the coastline of 'New Holland or Terra Australis' from the accounts of Spanish, Dutch, French and British sailors.

Sir Andrew Snape Hamond's Pembroke work table
A First Fleet journey
In about 1790 First Fleet Surgeon-General John White sent his patron, Sir Andrew Snape Hamond, some planks cut from a tree growing near the new settlement at Port Jackson.
He probably hoped a gift of rare, exotic timber would help retain Snape Hamond's good favour — the British naval officer could exert a powerful influence over White's career.
In New South Wales, the colonists called the timber 'beefwood', because the freshly cut logs resembled salted meat. In London, a cabinet-maker sliced the precious timber into thin veneers to top this small Pembroke work table. It sat in the drawing room of Snape Hamond's home in Norfolk, England for more than 200 years, before being purchased by the National Museum of Australia in 2006.

Six area fire stations including Gulf Breeze, Midway, Holley-Navarre, Navarre Beach, U.S. Air Force and Florosa, donated their time – and equipment for display – at the second annual Fall Fire Prevention Festival and Chili Cook-off at Navarre Park Saturday.
The festival celebrates National Fire Prevention week, which is the first week of October. The designation stems from the Great Chicago Fire on Oct. 9, 1871. Awareness is drawn to the necessity of working fire alarms in both residential and commercial buildings.
Many watched as new recruits from Midway's fire academy demoed how firefighters cut through a car to relieve a trapped passenger.
Starr's Automotive took first place in the chili cook-off, while members of the Eglin Federal Credit Union won second and the Holley-Navarre Professional Firefighter's Union Local 4695 won third place.

There has been some debate as to whether The Federal Reserve and Treasury Department deserve praise or condemnation for their handling of the credit crisis. A lot may depend on how close you believe we were — and possibly still are — to a total economic collapse of Great Depression type magnitude. There is quite a bit of evidence that this nightmare scenario was possible, that it didn't occur is
a top.
When is a bottom a top? A bottom is a top when it occurs in the markets. While no one can say for certain that a long-term bottom hit in March 2009 for equities and in November for the dollar, the reversals have been dramatic.
Judge rejects SEC/Bank of America settlement: In a surprise, Judge Jed Rakoff refused to sign off on a $33 million deal between the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and Bank of America based on SEC allegations that BofA lied to its shareholders regarding $5.8 billion in bonuses paid out to Merrill executives prior to the close of the merger of the two banks.
For years we have been reading stories about big firms or big traders accepting multi-million dollar penalties from regulators, while maintaining their innocence and basically being free to carry on with their activity.
Judge Rakoff laid bare this folly in rejecting a consent judgment he calls, "neither fair, nor reasonable, nor adequate." He points out, "It does not comport with the most elementary notions of justice and morality, in that it proposes that the shareholders who were the victims of the bank's alleged misconduct now pay the penalty for that misconduct," and he noted the SEC did not pursue charges against bank management or the lawyers allegedly responsible.
He added the judgment left the impression it "was a contrivance designed to provide the SEC with the façade of enforcement and management of the bank with a quick resolution…The proposed consent judgment in this case suggests a rather cynical relationship between the parties."
Where would we be if that logic was applied across the board to the financial crisis of the last few years?
While an economic catastrophe may very well have been averted, the means of achieving that has been the same problematic policies that got us in the predicament in the first place: Over spending and maintaining low interest rates for extended periods of time. This is a recipe for inflation, perhaps even hyper inflation that some economists had predicted when deficits were measured in the mere hundreds of billions not in the trillions.
The unemployment rate grew to 10% in 2009 and the economy is still shedding jobs, albeit at a slower rate than a year ago.
The more we hear, the less we know
The decisions made regarding TARP and the ongoing bailout of the financial sector will be debated for decades, but it is becoming apparent that neither we, nor the folks allocating our money, knew all of the details.
Goldman Sachs bonanza
• Traders at Goldman Sachs recorded only one daily loss in the third quarter, according to the FT. GS made more than $100 million on 36 of 65 days.
• Goldman was to be paid $1 billion, while U.S. taxpayers lost $2.3 billion if commercial lender CIT failed (it did).
• Goldman Sachs and other banks continued handing out huge bonuses.
Perhaps the government should be officially outsourced to GS to run. Maybe then the U.S. government could operate with a profit.
Here is something for everyone to remember, particularly congressmen, presidents and journalists: While emergencies may require quick action, they also require more due diligence not less, (i.e., The Patriot Act, TARP).
Big Brother Alert
• Terra Nova Financial, a Chicago-based broker was fined $400,000 by the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (Finra) for unauthorized payments to a client. Payment to hedge fund customers included covering the cost of visits to gentleman's clubs. If they also treated regulators, at least we would know where Finra was when it wasn't investigating Bernie Madoff.
•To curb Wall Street bonus excesses, the White House hired a "pay czar" to watch over this process, which prompted Wall Street to pay back the loans as fast as possible.
Stumble out of the gate
The new Obama administration offered promise in volatile times but some appointees were more of the same.
• Mary Schapiro faced tough questioning as new SEC chair as she served as CEO of the Financial Regulatory Authority since 2006 and previously was president of NASD, the main regulators of Mr. Madoff. She promised to "act like our hair is on fire." She wouldn't need to if she did a better job in the last decade.
• Treasury Secretary Tim Geithner was greeted with a U.S. dollar rally when his appointment was announced. But then he had to answer questions about why he skipped paying a previous tax bill and why, when he was head of the New York Fed, he didn't ask AIG counterparties to take a haircut at the end of the year.
• CFTC Chairman Gary Gensler's nomination was held up for months by Senators angry over his support for keeping OTC trading free from regulation. He promised to change and has, as he has been one of the biggest proponents of stronger OTC regulation. He also has listened to those who would blame futures speculators for the 2008 spike in crude oil and is prepared to place hard positions limits on the industry in 2010.
China is stuck with us
In February, a month after President Obama accused China of manipulating its currency to boost exports, Chinese banking official Luo Ping was quoted in the FT: "Once you start issuing $1-2 trillion…we know the dollar is going to depreciate, so we hate you guys but there is nothing much we can do."
Off The Charts
• Electro shock therapy? Reuters reported that a new device, the Rationalizer, senses traders' stress levels so they can call time out. The prototype created by Netherlands-based Philips Electronics and ABN AMRO allowed users to wear the "EmoBracelet," which detects stress and makes a accompanying "EmoBowl" change color from yellow to red as stress levels rise.
• Shhh… Transparency is one of the basic tenets of capital markets. Publicly traded companies have a legal obligation to disclose material facts about the value of their company. Unless the Federal Reserve and Treasury Department muzzle them, that is. In April, the Wall Street Journal reported that Bank of America CEO Ken Lewis was prompted by Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke and then-Treasury Secretary Henry Paulson not to discuss the financial woes of Merrill Lynch as BofA negotiated its government-backed purchase of Merrill.
• Fog follies: In mid-December, President Obama held a summit on how the banking industry could help the ailing economy. But the CEOs from Goldman Sachs, Morgan Stanley and Citigroup failed to show up. Their excuse? Their flights were delayed due to foggy weather. Despite other available transportation options, including trains that run to and from New York and Washington, D.C. several times a day, execs chose instead to join the meeting via teleconference. Talk about "phoning it in."
• Citi cancels jet order: In the midst of public outrage over banks receiving bailouts in one door while handing out bonuses from another, Citi, one of said banks, was ready to receive delivery of a new $50 million executive jet. The order was cancelled after pressure from the government and Citi executives had to resort to traveling on the old jet(s).
• Man sues BofA for $1,748 billion, trillion dollars: No this isn't John Thain trying to get his bonus (we think, it could be an alias). The man, Dalton Chiscolm (yeah right) apparently was unhappy with his customer service. The figure written out would be 1, followed by 21 zeroes.
• Little help from above? FaithShares Trust launched three exchange-traded funds addressing the investment needs of Christian investors. They are the first ever Christian-based ETFs, according to FaithShares, though there are several Christian-based mutual funds. Each fund — FaithShares Catholic Value Fund (FCV), FaithShares Methodist Value Fund (FMV) and FaithShares Christian Values Fund (FOC) — will be tailored to each denomination's teachings and include 100 stocks of large well-known companies, but exclude companies from specific industries considered to be objectionable industries by a specific denomination. FaithShares plans on adding a Baptist and Lutheran-based ETF. Sound like an interesting arbitrage opportunity.
• Et tu Barack? Past administration officials constantly responded to international concerns over the falling dollar with the trite comment, "We have a strong dollar policy," despite policies, particularly on interest rates, that weakened the dollar. In November, Treasury Secretary Geithner continued the annoying tradition.
• A very good year: While oil speculators continued to be under siege in Washington, five of the world's largest oil trading houses reaped bumper earnings, according to the FT. The group of five trades has close to 15% of the world's crude and oil products output. Together they made about $4 billion.
Signs Of The Times
• Sausage making: Proposed regulatory changes in the futures industry kept coming and coming in 2009. Countless bills regulating over-the-counter (OTC) derivatives were bandied about the House and Senate. After his swearing in as CFTC chairman on May 26, Gary Gensler testified before the House and Senate seven times from June through October. On Dec. 11, the House passed the Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2009, which calls for all standardized swap transactions between dealers and major swap participants to be cleared and traded on an exchange or electronic platform. Regulatory reform is sure to be a major issue for the futures industry in 2010.
• BYOB or move down under: The number of firms holding holiday parties in 2009 dropped to 62% from 77% in 2008 and 90% in 2007 according to a survey from Challenger, Gray and Christmas Inc. Conversely, Reuters cites a IBIS World forecast that the number of Australian companies that will have holiday parties will increase to 92% in 2009 from 67% in 2008. The survey expects Australian companies to spend 560 million Aussie dollars, an increase of 76%, on year-end events.
• Ph.D. in financial journalism: Former Lehman executive Lennie Fuller is considering creating a Ph.D. track for financial journalism at the University of Stirling in Scotland, according to Felix Salmon's blog. Fuller is a qualified Scottish chartered accountant. We don't know what role he played in Lehman's troubles, if any, but it seems they had a whole bunch of people with the proper certification, as did all of the investment banks.
• How the mighty… Richard Rubin, an economic stalwart of the Clinton Administration and exalted Goldman Sachs alum, left Citigroup, which received more bailout money than any other existing investment bank, with a diminished reputation.
• Clean energy?: In November, Netherlands-based power company Essent announced the opening of the Eco Zather power plant. The fancy name belies that it will power homes through fermenting cow manure from nearby farms.
Bernie Madoff was sentenced to 150 years in prison in June for operating the biggest Ponzi scheme (not including the Federal Reserve) ever. No word on any sentence for the regulators who failed to do anything about it, despite being handed a detailed analysis of the fraud a decade earlier.
Former Merrill Lynch CEO John Thain managed to redecorate his office, including an $87K area rug, and pass out $5.8 billion in bonuses to Merrill executives in 2008 before handing over the reins of Merrill to BofA CEO Ken Lewis. Lewis showed Thain — who could win the title of all-time clueless greedy corporate executive — the door in 2009.
Lewis would leave as well after he acknowledged he was bullied by the Fed and Treasury to close the Merrill deal despite revelations of fourth quarter losses that were not shared with shareholders.
In early 2009, deaf people became the latest victims of financial fraudsters. In February, CNBC reported that the SEC stopped an alleged Ponzi scheme by Billions Coupons, a firm in Hawaii that raised more than $4.4 million from deaf investors. Billions Coupons reportedly raised the cash by holding investment seminars for investors who were deaf, and then the firm's CEO pocketed the profits.
Our biggest rogues, once again, are the political leaders who failed to protect us from those gaming the system. They are the ones that removed depression era regs, and the ones who signed off on the bailouts without the sense of making sure any profits derived from our generosity be returned to us.
The Naughty Aughties
The end of 2009 does not merely bring to an end a year of significant happenings but also the end of the first decade of the 21st century. And it seems like just yesterday we were writing about Y2K.
Y2K scare
While today it seems like so much ado about nothing, the preparation for Y2K probably helped prevent 9/11 from becoming a greater tragedy, as a lot of disaster recovery and contingency planning that happened to prevent computer breakdowns relative to Y2K helped us through 9/11.
Electronic trading
A decade of electronic trading was just in its infancy in the United States in 2000 and only covered the new E-mini stock index markets and overnight trading. Its success led to efficiencies, lower execution and brokerage costs, the creation of new trading strategies and successive record-breaking volume years stopped only by the recent credit crises.
The terrorist attacks of 9/11 that brought down the World Trade Center towers and did significant damage to the Pentagon hit our industry particularly hard, with Carr Futures and Cantor Fitzgerald losing many employees in their New York offices. Also the trading floor of the New York Board of Trade was reduced to rubble in the attack.
Two equity market crashes, one dollar
Technicians may argue that dollar weakness (see "The lost decade") distorted what really has been one long bear trend, but either way it has been a tough decade for the buy and hold crowd to explain. And despite our "strong dollar policy," it was not a good decade for the greenback.
Corporate accountability
Enron, Worldcom, Bear Stearns, Lehman, AIG, bankk solvency crisis, TARP etc.
Not friendly for savers
During this lost decade, investment banks had the benefit of a friendly central bank as the Fed maintained accommodative Fed funds rates, 4% or less, for roughly 65% of the decade.
Then & now…
• The Commodity Futures Modernization Act of 2000 (CFMA) was hailed as breakthrough legislation that would end confusion regarding OTC swaps regulation and allow for the trading of single stock futures. Today it is be being cited as a culprits for the credit crises that nearly sent us into another depression. Turns out zero regulators are too few for OTC swaps and two are too many for single stock futures.
• In 2000, the Chicago Mercantile Exchange set a volume record of 231.1 millions contracts; the Chicago Board of Trade did slightly more volume but was down for the year. By the end of the decade, CME bought CBOT along with the New York Mercantile Exchange and traded approximately 2.7 billion contracts in 2009.
• In 2000, electronic trading volume at the CME accounted for 15% of total exchange volume. In 2009, it was above 90%.
• Chicago Board Options Exchange set a record of 326.4 million contracts in 2000. In 2009, it traded more than 1.13 billion.
• A decade ago, a new era of lighter, smarter regulation was underway. Today Congress is working on rebuilding a regulatory structure that failed to detect enormous systemic risk.
A decade ago…
• Nearly all futures prices were discovered through open outcry and most futures contracts were only traded via open outcry.
• No one used the term "social media" or used Facebook, Twitter, or LinkedIn.
• What we knew of the Internet had more to do with Al Gore's vision than as an indispensible part of how we live and do our jobs.

The 162 guests were then welcomed by Jerrold Ross, Ph.D., Dean of St. John's The School of Education. Dean Ross expressed his appreciation to everyone for making this inaugural event at Oakdale so successful. He noted that he expects the event to continue to grow in the years ahead, and acknowledge the unique contributions that each of the honorees has made to the field of education and educational administration. Dean Ross also reminded everyone that this L.E.A.D. event was part of The School of Education Centennial Celebration and urged them to be justifiably proud of the impact that St. John's University has had on all areas of education for the past 100 years.Serving as the talented Master of Ceremonies, Jim Monnier '74Ed, '79GEd, Associate Vice President, Development, St. John's University, urged everyone to remember the importance of the Vincentian values that have served as the University's foundation since 1870. He then introduced Rev. Patrick Griffin, C.M., Executive Vice President for Mission and Branch Campuses, St. John's University, who delivered the Invocation. Following a delightful dinner Dean Ross and Jim Monnier returned to the podium to present the L.E.A.D. awards. Guests marveled at the accomplishments of each honoree as his or her citation was read. Richard Castellano '73Ed has served for more than 20 years as President of the Suffolk County Women's Basketball Coaches Association and is a member of both the New York State Basketball Hall of Fame and the Suffolk County Sports Hall of Fame. He acknowledges that he is "…living [my] dream – being a high school teacher and coach, meeting superior student athletes and sharing my life with a loving and supportive family."

She has also been honored as a finalist for the eSchool TechSavvy Superintendent's Award as a "…visionary leader who understands the technological needs of the 21st century and the impact on the educational program." Joseph Geoghan '59CBA is a retired businessman who has been a lifelong supporter of Catholic education at every level.

Michael Keany spent 33 years at a teacher and administrator in the Manhasset School District.

Even today in his home village of Obinagu, Nigeria there is no electricity or clean water supply, and an average of 50 children die each year from water-borne disease. With the help of his parishioners in Our Lady of Mercy Parish in Forest Hills and the students of St. John's Prep High School he has raised more than $44,000 for Water for Life in Africa, an organization he and his parishioners founded to supply clean, fresh water to the people of his village. "This has been a tremendous evening for St. John's University and our School of Education," noted Bill Schaeffer '73CBA, Director, Alumni Relations. "This L.E.A.D. event emphasized the importance of education, a reality that was clearly displayed by the deserving honorees and their contributions to the various fields of education. All of us at St. John's University are very proud of our alumni." Guests at the Oakdale L.E.A.D. event enjoyed the first of what will definitely become an annual tradition. "This was a great evening at a wonderful location that brought together a terrific group of education professionals," said Thomas Gilroy '68Ed. "It was nice to be able to honor these six very deserving L.E.A.D. award recipients." "This was a first class, professionally-run event," said John Schwartz, a guest of honoree Michael Keany. "St. John's University has much to be proud of, especially The School of Education."

Stretch Satin Elbow Length Glove Style 25105
They may not be $100 gloves, but they're amazing. They made my arms feel cool, they look amazing with my gown, and they just complete the look!

Stunning but doesn't last
These gloves were gorgeous...for about 2 hours. Then the stretch gave out completely & the arms started to slip towards the hands. Was constantly pulling them up during my reception until I just took them off. For the price they could use a better spandex that lasts longer!
November 28, 2012
Great Buy!!!
They matched my dress (white) perfectly. I just did not like the lined detail on the hands but was aware of that before I ordered them!! I will be even more beautiful walking down the aisle.

Costume and Textiles Man's Suit: Jacket and Trousers Made in United States, North and Central America1970 Designed by Bill Blass, American, 1922 - 2002. Made by Pincus Brothers Maxwell, Philadelphia, 1911 - 2004. Patterned double-knit wool and polyester Currently not on view 1973-59-4a,b Gift of Thomas Neil Crater, 1973 |
LabelAs menswear became a fashion commodity in the 1960s, designers of women's fashions began to venture into men's clothing. One of the first major American designers to do so was Bill Blass, who produced a men's line for the Philadelphia firm of Pincus Brothers Maxwell in 1967, and won the first Coty menswear award the following year. Blass's sophisticated suit retains the traditional form—albeit with modish wide lapels and trouser cuffs—but the wildly patterned Italian double-knit makes it refreshingly novel. |

When it comes to do-it-yourself automotive repair, one of the most misunderstood and daunting repairs is the brake system.

Which is why the questions we see more than any others are always about how to bleed your brakes.
Trying to determine the best brake rotors poses quite a challenge, especially when comparing performance rotors. However, we've put together a brief comparison between the two most popular rotors: drilled and slotted. Check it out.

How international is the iPhone 4S 'world phone?'
One of the most interesting wrinkles in the iPhone 4S—which I review at length elsewhere—is its status as a "world phone." Unlike previous generations, it supports both CDMA (Verizon, Sprint) and GSM (AT&T, the rest of the world) wireless technology right out of the box. But there are some interesting quirks to this product that may please savvy international travelers.
When Apple released the Verizon iPhone 4 in February, the iPhone 4's product line got a little more complicated. Because Verizon's network in the U.S. uses a different wireless standard (CDMA) than AT&T does (GSM), Apple had to build different chipsets for each network, and thus, different phones. But the iPhone 4S changes all that: It can access either the CDMA or GSM network, depending on which carrier you sign up for.
For consumers on CDMA networks, this new phone design is a big deal when it comes to international travel. Users of iPhones locked to AT&T have always been able to travel internationally, as GSM is a cellular standard supported all over the world. It uses SIM cards (or, in the iPhone's case, micro-SIM cards) to talk to networks. When it came to the Verizon iPhone 4, however, users couldn't travel internationally very reliably with their device, since it required a built-in device identification number on the CDMA network, which isn't that widely used outside of North America and parts of Asia.
