The Trinity Study and Portfolio Success Rates
2 comments:
- AnonymousFebruary 8, 2012 at 1:22 PM
Wade –
This table of yours makes me shout both "YES!" and "NO!"
YES, because it reinforces a conclusion that I'm getting from similar testing with Monte Carlo. So thanks for preparing and showing it.
NO, because it has such a depressing message for the population whose options I'm looking at, folks whose wealth is not sufficient for decent retirement years at 4%. There are tens of millions who are or will be in that position, many despite trying to plan prudently based on reasonable job and home-equity assumptions which recent economic events have shattered . . .
The numbers say that as you raise the withdrawal rate above 4%, success probabilities drop FAST. Arrghh.
For many folks, it will be desirable to consider the kind of information in your table or a Monte Carlo equivalent, and also look at mortality tables – and then maybe choose something like all-stocks with 7% withdrawal rate, taking some risk of a povertous end in order to have a decent retirement life all or most of the way.
I think we have responsibility to show them these options.
Dick PurcellRepliesDick,
Thank you. You and I have talked a lot about concerns with the Trinity study. I will be getting to those. But I'm trying to start again from first principles.
But what you are writing, about how the success rates drop rapidly as the withdrawal rate rises above 4%, is quite scary. Even for someone who places their faith in the study, there isn't much margin for error. Then again, if it wasn't for that pesky 1959-1974 period (see Figure 2.1), 5% wouldn't have been hit so hard.
Next Tuesday my review of "Risk Less and Prosper" will be coming out at Advisor Perspectives. Zvi Bodie would VEHEMENTLY disagree with your solution for many folks. I'm still working through this all myself and haven't developed an opinion yet. But certainly I can agree that people should be aware of all the options, and what you are suggesting is one extreme option. The opposite extreme option would be to take whatever you've got and build a TIPS ladder or buy an inflation-adjusted single premium fixed annuity. And then there are various possibilities in between.
Thanks as always for commenting! Wade

The Lunch Ride: Otto Miller
Next Wednesday, May 16th, we will once again head up and over Otto Miller, a gravel climb we have come to know and love. Over the course of the last few years it has become a staple of our riding routine. It's also a ride that falls under an increasingly popular banner – the 'lunch ride'.
Working in the cycling industry, we're coming to know these rides all too well. The start time is always the same. Lunchtime. The distance? However far you can travel in your allotted time making sure, of course, you leave enough time to get back. They're the rides we sneak in when we can, the hour (or two) when we can escape and mash the pedals for as many revolutions as the clock will allow. The level of effort is generally high. It's about commitment. Committing to make the time and, in some cases, committing to skipping lunch.
The Rapha Mobile Cycle Club has dropped in on a few of these rides in the past few weeks, including one with Specialized. Over the course of the summer, the MCC (affectionately nicknamed Hennie in honor of Hennie Kuiper) will be visiting more. So whether you're in Chicago or Chattanooga, in Pittsburg or Patterson (New Jersey), take a look at the latest Rapha Mobile Cycle Club schedule (and follow us on Twitter). If you see they may be heading your way, simply send 'Hennie' a message to let us know the when and where your regular lunch ride takes place and we'll do the rest.
That way, you and your co-workers can enjoy an espresso before starting your lunch ride. Hopefully, by the end of the summer, we can collate these into a useful resource for anybody in search of a midday jaunt.
Please e-mail lunch rides to firstname.lastname@example.com

The precedent you while.
Michael Reagan knows what we're talking about how they live through it with his father back in 1980 joins us now from Los Angeles we -- that.
When they said Mr.
President you'll want -- then.
And actually I wasn't there if you fight if I was there would have been in the shower with my father which would have been -- little nasty.
-- definitely found out.
He was -- was just gotten back from.
There was in the shower you shower and if it comes over it says you don't who you know honey the president's on the phone and my dad says tell -- -- in the shower.
And and so many officials know he wants to talk usually my god I'm in the shower come upon wanna get back -- hour.
And now and if you should know we need to talk to my dad gets -- -- wrapped a towel around self.
-- what the phone and holding a towel and that's about 5 o'clock in the afternoon here in LA.
And Jimmy Carter says congratulations.
You're the -- United States of America.
War -- like.
Really working well yeah so that whole night was a little bit different when everybody because normally.
We go the georgians for dinner we go to.
To the judge replies to have a joyous night watch the -- go blue backed and remember -- -- blue not red.
And of course we start celebrating very very early but that's how my father found out by the way.
Just a whole lot of Monica Crowley she and I have a lot in common this morning should got up and canceled her brother in -- vote I gotta cancel my Brothers my.
That up right and it hasn't -- I straight this AM.
I have three -- that's correct -- -- done I've been doing that for years -- and I just -- get to grips with that moment which I think is unique in American politics.
What -- you've actually campaigned for years it's -- grueling process and suddenly there is a moment.
When power is transferred to use -- U -- the president the United States of America.
Are you telling me that you'll follow up Ronald Reagan just took it in stride wrapped a towel around himself in this carried on as if it was normal -- You -- -- really hate -- when it happened yesterday it would.
-- he took it -- that way.
And it really didn't hit me until the night of the inaugural my wife -- -- We're the ones -- -- his first inaugural ball he walks into the green room.
There at the Hilton Washington DC and he turned to look to -- straight news white tie out get -- -- to -- -- to be introduced by my wife tonight.
And and he turned -- around.
Any jump straight -- -- that night.
-- heal together just how the president of the United States of America -- Let's hope that supported him and not providing was elected with the night we're about -- introduced him.
As the -- United States there at the -- We do in the house.
In the same house as you dad when he found out in the shower that he was the president you of that in the house all know I was some way the century -- to get ready to watch the stage turned blue and we have this whole program what -- staged or blue.
Having dinner all these things.
Waiting for a very long not because remember.
You know up until -- -- won by ten points there was close.
We are behind going into the weekend we start to surge coming out of the weekend into Monday I would just coming back from Pennsylvania and Ohio.
I've been on 66 airplane -- -- nineteen states the month of October same with my sister -- we hadn't seen each other.
So -- -- all prepared for a long night and then bail.
It just all of a sudden we just gotta look -- -- that.
My god you want -- it was just -- I look at.
My god my guess the president of the united states of American three days later we -- at Secret Service protection.
And this judge.
Came right at the very end right I mean the election was on Tuesday just the US is an especially good thing we can monitor as we say deal -- That surge of came over and came over for Ronald Reagan.
Right at the very end going out of Sunday into Monday into Tuesday and the election up until -- boy it was a toss -- nobody knew.
I mean everything was tight everybody was nervous want to watch -- turn.
And then 5 o'clock in the afternoon it was over.
My father won by ten points might would you just hold on for 12 and listen to what Monica -- is gonna tell us about Richard Nixon on election night when he became president 1960 day.
Yeah this quickly about what Mike said about that -- 5 o'clock California time the president President Carter calls President Reagan to sick to.
Concede the race and Democrats were few if -- -- because the whole western part of Mason had not voted yet.
President Nixon you know we ran in 1960 for the presidency lost and then he -- again eight years later.
1968 and one but what he told me about Election Day was so fascinating Stuart.
He said that on Election Day he said who the hell knows so we've got a car and he had this driver just drive him around.
And he could see outside he could see people but they couldn't see inside said they had no idea it was Richard Nixon in the car kind of driving around.
And he said that what was going through his mind was not did -- win what was going through his mind was how many of these people did I read.
Very interesting very interesting model and you still I'd go with actors for years I've still -- -- -- the people voted against my grandfather and by the way my friends that says.
300 electoral votes.
For Mitt Romney today okay now I want you to -- -- the margin of victory for President Obama in California today.
I would say probably.
Probably five points.
That's it -- how it's -- in California remember what we have a ballot measure.
Stewart in California where the pet -- for -- being asked to vote on a ballot measure to require porn stars Wear condoms.
That's a great -- -- it but yeah.
This is a digression market you know backdrop that -- You're telling me -- if we're voting to a point -- -- sitting at a county assessor because they arrested our county assessor did did Michael Reagan just.
And tried to subject your music market up desperate to change the subject it did you just put California in play -- -- I think you did.
-- project and Obama's gonna win by five points.
Okay related of that -- my.
And you'll move my -- data still that this state is blue and getting blue -- unfortunately.
Thanks for the great stories that -- excellent -- we always appreciate it we will see a latest thank you you got it.

EasyPG is an all-in-one GnuPG interface for Emacs. It has two aspects: convenient tools which allow to use GnuPG from Emacs (EasyPG Assistant), and a fully functional interface library to GnuPG (EasyPG Library).
Setup for transparent, automatic encryption and decryption:
(require 'epa-file) (epa-file-enable)
Now visit anything.gpg
and it will encrypt it when you save the buffer.
See AutoEncryption for alternatives.
To prevent EPG from prompting for a key every time you save a file, put the following at the top of your file:
-*- epa-file-encrypt-to: ("firstname.lastname@example.com") -*-
EPA will prompt for the key only the first time you save the file, assuming you have the email address you specified in your keyring.
The following comments are outdated as of Emacs 23:
epa-file will prompt for which key to use for encryption each time you save a .gpg file. The following patch will stop it prompting, and cause it to always use symmetric encryption:
--- Backup/epa-file.el.~1~ 2006-12-20 07:33:07.000000000 +0100 +++ epa-file.el 2007-02-11 13:57:20.000000000 +0100 @@ -186,13 +186,14 @@ (epa-file--encode-coding-string (buffer-substring start end) coding-system)) (unless (assoc file epa-file-passphrase-alist) - (epa-select-keys + '(epa-select-keys context "Select recipents for encryption. If no one is selected, symmetric encryption will be performed. " (cond ((listp epa-file-encrypt-to) epa-file-encrypt-to) - ((stringp epa-file-encrypt-to) (list epa-file-encrypt-to))))))) + ((stringp epa-file-encrypt-to) (list epa-file-encrypt-to)))) + nil))) (error (if (setq entry (assoc file epa-file-passphrase-alist)) (setcdr entry nil))
The above patch appears to be included in Emacs 23.
Note that easy-pg consists of two different kind of modules, one is a library (epg.el) and the others are applications (epa-*.el). Auto-encryption (epa-file.el) is a part of the latter. As the docs says "The EasyPG Library dares to disable passphrase caching", that is intended behavior. Caveat user, if you start using the library directly. ;)
In X, Emacs 23 seems to pop up a graphical window to ask you the keyphrase. How to let it ask the password in minibuffer?
I found the cause for it. The graphical window appears if you run gpg
with the --use-agent
option. EasyPG adds it (see epg.el
) if it sees an environment variable like this one: GPG_AGENT_INFO=/tmp/seahorse-nDQm50/S.gpg-agent:6321:1
(check that with the env
command). And you have this variable if for instance you have the program seahorse
installed and running (which is the case in Ubuntu). If you uninstall Seahorse, the prompt will always be text instead of graphical. You may have to relogin to X to force Seahorse to close. --DanielClemente
I have the same problem. And in console emacs23 can pop up nothing, so it hang there, you have to use "C-g" quit it. For my gentoo system, I compile the package 'pinentry' without gtk qt3 ncurses. It caused emacs23 hang both in X or console. I notice that pinentry did not have the readline USE in recent version.
I found the thread to fix it. http://www.nabble.com/gnupg-interface-td17242718.html
1. Install the latest GnuPG 1.x along with 2.x and let epg-gpg-program to point the executable, or
2. Use other pinentry-program which interact through the windowing system
I generally don't mind the graphical password prompt when I'm at my desk, but when logged into a remote terminal with multi-tty this can be darn inconvenient (I have to VNC into my desktop just to enter the password!)
Here is my solution that turns off the use of the agent in these cases: http://www.enigmacurry.com/2009/01/14/extending-emacs-with-advice/
How about (setenv "GPG_AGENT_INFO" nil) Note: another form is: (setenv (concat "GPG_AGENT_INFO" nil))
- this did it for me in emacs 23 : nice solution.
Yes but when you use the command line the pinentry widget will popup.
On the Gnupg homepage: GnuPG comes in two flavours: 1.4.9 is the well known and portable standalone version, whereas 2.0.11 is the enhanced and somewhat harder to build version.
IMHO The best solution seem to use the 1.4.9 version.
Uninstalling seahorse doesn't work for me (gentoo) - even though GPG_AGENT_INFO is unset I still get the graphical password prompt *scowl*
I use this to temporarily unset the GPG_AGENT_INFO environment variable if running in terminal:
;; Do not use gpg agent when runing in terminal (defadvice epg--start (around advice-epg-disable-agent activate) (let ((agent (getenv "GPG_AGENT_INFO"))) (when (not (display-graphic-p)) (setenv "GPG_AGENT_INFO" nil)) ad-do-it (when (not (display-graphic-p)) (setenv "GPG_AGENT_INFO" agent))))
If you use emacsclient and sometimes over plaintext ssh, sometimes in X, this will alter the behavious on-the-fly:
(defadvice epg--start (around advice-epg-disable-agent disable) "Don't allow epg--start to use gpg-agent in plain text terminals." (if (display-graphic-p) ad-do-it (let ((agent (getenv "GPG_AGENT_INFO"))) (setenv "GPG_AGENT_INFO" nil) ; give us a usable text password prompt ad-do-it (setenv "GPG_AGENT_INFO" agent)))) (ad-enable-advice 'epg--start 'around 'advice-epg-disable-agent) (ad-activate 'epg--start)
Note also there's a bug in pinentry in GnuPG2, if you run Arch Linux you could install gnupg1 and do (when (file-executable-p "/usr/bin/gpg1") (setq epg-gpg-program "/usr/bin/gpg1"))
to make it use gpg1 on your Arch boxen.
I have removed 'gpg-agent'. Of course, it totally solved the problem with the GUI dialog. In Ubuntu, 'gpg-agent' is used by default as a replacement for 'ssh-agent'. When 'gpg-agent' is deleted, 'ssh-agent' is used. So, no visible losses. --DmitriMinaev
There's another, more straightforward solution, which should yield the desired result with both gpg1 and gpg2, and doesn't require you to disable the GPG agent. Add the following line to ~/.gnupg/gpg-agent.conf:
pinentry-program /usr/bin/pinentry-curses
With Emacs 23 and the default epg that comes bundled. I am able to save (and encrypt) a *.gpg file, but when I try to reopen it in emacs, I get the following: 'File exists, but cannot be read'. I am able to decrypt it fine outside of emacs with gpg -d Running 'M-x epa-decrypt-file RET FILENAME' on the same file gives the following error: 'Decrypting test4.gpg…0% (0/674) epg-decrypt-file: Wrong type argument: listp, exit '
Any thoughts or comments would be much appreciated!!
You can use public key to save(encrypt) a *.gpg file, and only use private key to (re)open(or decrypt) it. If you are the public key's owner, you can use command
gpg -o [fn] --export-private-keys -a
to get it and import it to your system.
I was getting the error 'File exists, but cannot be read' because emacs could not find the gpg command.
Another way to test if emacs can find it would be to do M-x epa-list-keys
With Emacs 23 epa-list-keys was working correctly but trying to open a gpg file gave me the error: 'File exists, but cannot be read' Downgrading to gpg 1.4.11 from 2.0.16 allowed me to open gpg files again.
One reason for 'File exists, but cannot be read' can be that it cannot find gpg. It is a shame that the error message is so bad.
To fix, you can either set epg-gpg-program to the full path (e.g. /sw/bin/gpg2) or set it to a relative path (e.g. gpg2) and make sure that exec-path contains the right directory. Setting $PATH from inside Emacs is NOT adequate, it has to be in exec-path. (Setting $PATH outside Emacs would probably do but with Emacs.app invoked from Finder that might not be convenient.)
I found a problem when I use Wanderlust Version 201107150352 with EasyPG 0.0.16(is this the last one?). I changed Wanderlust throught the emacs customization to put a default "Bcc" pointing to my own mail so I have copies of whatever I send.
; In ~/.emacs says:
'(wl-bcc "My name <firstname.lastname@example.com>
When I try to send an encrypted mail, for example to myself, it's says something like
"No public key for email@example.com,email@example.com; skip it?".
To solve this problem, you must download the source code of epg, and edit epa-mail.el. In the implementation of the function epa-mail-encrypt:
;;;###autoload (defun epa-mail-encrypt (start end recipients sign signers)
there are some lines that says as follow:
(if recipients (setq recipients (delete "" (split-string recipients "[ \t\n]+"))))
Just change them to this ones:
(if recipients (setq recipients (delete "" (split-string recipients "[, \t\n]+"))))
Customized the function epa-mail-encrypt (EasyPG version 23.1; Emacs 23.4.1) to encrypt a body of the Gnus message (compatible with the mymail-crypt Chrome extension):
(require 'epa-mail) (defun epa-mail-encrypt-message () "Encrypt the current mail message." (interactive) (save-excursion (let ((verbose current-prefix-arg) (context (epg-make-context epa-protocol))) (goto-char (point-min)) (save-restriction (setq recipients (mail-strip-quoted-names (mapconcat #'identity (nconc (mail-fetch-field "to" nil nil t) (mail-fetch-field "cc" nil nil t) (mail-fetch-field "bcc" nil nil t)) ",")))) (if recipients (setq recipients (delete "" (split-string recipients "[, \t\n]+")))) (setq epa-last-coding-system-specified (or coding-system-for-write (epa--select-safe-coding-system (point) (point-max)))) (let ((recipient-keys (if verbose (epa-select-keys context "Select recipients for encryption." recipients) (if recipients (mapcar (lambda (recipient) (setq recipient-key (epa-mail--find-usable-key (epg-list-keys (epg-make-context epa-protocol) (concat "<" recipient ">")) 'encrypt)) (unless (or recipient-key (y-or-n-p (format "No public key for %s; skip it? " recipient))) (error "No public key for %s" recipient)) recipient-key) recipients))))) (print recipient-keys) (message-goto-body) (epa-encrypt-region (point) (point-max) recipient-keys nil nil))))) ;; run as the last when the message buffer has been initialized (add-hook 'message-setup-hook (lambda () (define-key message-mode-map "\C-c\C-mcb" 'epa-mail-encrypt-message)))
Being difficult to find it online I decided to extract and publish the EasyPG Assistant User's Manual found within the package of Emacs 23.1.
You can find the manual here:
- http://virgo977virgo.blogspot.com/2009/09/easypg-assistant-users-manual-from.html
- http://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/manual/epa.html
AFAIK Gnus now prefers EasyPG for mail encryption (over PGG, mailcrypt…).
A working customization code (April 2011, using Debian, Emacs 23, No Gnus 0.16 (git version) and GnuPG 1) follows:
(require 'epg-config) (setq mml2015-use 'epg mml2015-verbose t epg-user-id gpgpgpkeyID mml2015-encrypt-to-self t mml2015-always-trust nil mml2015-cache-passphrase t mml2015-passphrase-cache-expiry '36000 mml2015-sign-with-sender t gnus-message-replyencrypt t gnus-message-replysign t gnus-message-replysignencrypted t gnus-treat-x-pgp-sig t ;; mm-sign-option 'guided ;; mm-encrypt-option 'guided mm-verify-option 'always mm-decrypt-option 'always gnus-buttonized-mime-types '("multipart/alternative" "multipart/encrypted" "multipart/signed") epg-debug t ;; then read the *epg-debug*" buffer )
To solve problems first suppress any "encrypt-to" in your ~/.gnupg/gpg.conf (beware: it can lead to new problems because you may therefore produce cyphered files/mail NOT cyphered using your key)

The conversion therapy center being sued by gay men who paid the counselors to make them straight vowed it would continue to "assist those with unwanted same-sex attractions."
"The lawsuit is without merit, and is designed to create a chilling effect upon speech and programs that assist people in overcoming unwanted same-sex attractions," a statement from JONAH -- Jews Offering New Alternatives for Healing -- said Thursday.
Four former JONAH clients, who were teens when they signed up for help, filed a consumer fraud lawsuit against JONAH and two of its counselors Tuesday, saying they were defrauded by JONAH's claim that "being gay is a mental disorder" that could be reversed by conversion therapy -- "a position rejected by the American Psychiatric Association four decades ago," the lawsuit said.
"This is the first time that plaintiffs have sought to hold conversion therapists liable in a court of law," said Samuel Wolfe, a lawyer with the Southern Poverty Law Center. The SPLC, an Alabama-based civil rights group, is providing legal aid to the plaintiffs.
Their lawsuit should put all conversion therapists on notice that they can be held accountable, Wolfe said.
The SPLC has identified 70 conversion therapy providers across the United States. A California law signed by Gov. Jerry Brown last month made it illegal for licensed counselors to use the therapy with clients under 18.
JONAH co-director Arthur Goldberg said the position that people's sexual orientation can be changed by therapy is not contradicted by the latest statements from the American Psychiatric Association, but he did not give any examples.
"We remain steadfast in our commitment to assist those with unwanted same-sex attractions," Goldberg said in a statement to CNN Thursday. "There are thousands of people who have shed their unwanted same-sex attractions, not only through our programs, but also through other similar programs."
In an interview Thursday with the Family Research Council's Washington Watch Radio, Goldberg said he was optimistic that JONAH has "a very strong case and we should be able to emerge victorious."
The lawsuit, filed in Hudson County, New Jersey, Superior Court, said conversion therapy, which can cost up to $10,000 a year, can put patients at risk of "depression, anxiety and self-destructive behavior," while giving them no benefits.
Plaintiff Sheldon Bruck was 17 when he sought Goldberg's help in 2009. He wanted to assure his orthodox Jewish parents there was a way out of homosexuality when he told them he was gay.
Goldberg promised Bruck that "JONAH could help him change his orientation from gay to straight," the suit said.
Jo Bruck, Sheldon's mother, and Bella Levin, the mother of plaintiff Chaim Levin, are also plaintiffs because they paid for their sons' conversion therapy and the counseling the suit said they needed to recover from it.
The conversion therapy techniques described in the suit included having them strip naked in group sessions, cuddling and intimate holding of others of the same sex, violently beating an effigy of their mothers with a tennis racket, visiting bath houses "in order to be nude with father figures," and being "subjected to ridicule as 'faggots' and 'homos' in mock locker room scenarios."
"As long as you put in the effort, you're going to change," Goldberg told Bruck, the lawsuit said.
JONAH counselor Thaddeus Heffner blamed Bruck's gay orientation "on Bruck for not working hard enough to change, on his father for being too distant, and on his mother for being too close to him," the suit said.
Bruck quit after five sessions, delivered through an online video link, because he "experienced deepening depression and anxiety leading to suicidal ideation and feelings of hopelessness about his life," the suit said.
Heffner angrily warned Bruck that he was "making a big mistake" and "throwing (his) life away" by "giving into (his) desires" and that he would "never lead a happy life," but would "lead a life of unhappiness in that unhealthy lifestyle," the suit said.
Chaim Levin, also an orthodox Jew, was about to turn 17 in 2007 when he talked to his parents about his sexual orientation and sexual abuse when he was younger. A rabbi in his Brooklyn, New York, community suggested to his parents that they enroll him in JONAH's program.
"You can change if you just try hard enough," the suit said Goldberg told him. "You just need to work really hard, we are experts at this. We have helped so many people."

Indoor Air Quality (IAQ)
Materials used in building construction and conditions resulting from property damage, or even poor maintenance and upkeep, can result in indoor air pollution that could jeopardize a person's health. Many of the sources of Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) problems (i.e. formaldehyde, mold, radon, etc.) can be easily prevented and corrected by simple measures. Therefore, to help homeowners and business owners recognize and correct problems they may be experiencing, the following sources have been pulled together for easy access to useful information and answers to solve indoor air pollution. The information consists of guidance on most IAQ issues, links to home testing kits, and associations of professional consultants should these services be desired or needed. Authorization and resources do not allow the MDEQ to visit homes and businesses to test for indoor pollution, but the agency is striving to be of assistance through the information it is making available here.

MDEQ Asbestos Accreditation and Certification Program
MDEQ enforces rules for building demolitions and renovations; however, this
does not include residential housing
(except for apartment buildings with four or more units, projects with multiple residential buildings at a site, residential installations, or some larger projects). The MDEQ asbestos program provides compliance inspections for building renovations and demolitions to comply with National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP), and also for nonprofit schools to comply with the Asbestos Hazard Emergency Response Act (AHERA). Symptoms of Asbestosis will often take 15-30 years after exposure conditions before they appear. Asbestos fibers are about 1/100th the thickness of human hair and cannot be seen without the aid of a microscope. Avoid damaging asbestos containing materials by grinding, sanding, sawing, etc. If asbestos containing materials in your home must be disturbed, consult your local yellow pages for a qualified contractor. Contractors working on nonresidential buildings must be certified by the MDEQ certification branch. A list of certified inspectors and contractors can be obtained from MDEQ. Contact Jimmy Asbil (601)961-5164.

Symptoms from Fiberglass will typically go away after being removed or encapsulated. Fiberglass is not regulated and is widely used, but should not be breathed. There are some alternatives to fiberglass insulation (such as polyester and sheet foam). One technical paper concluded that wet spray-applied cellulose insulation (typically 30-40% water), when used in the walls of indoor environments, can become very moldy and result in unacceptable risk to occupants. It is recommended that fiberglass insulation be kept neatly contained (not hanging out) and use proper personal protective equipment to avoid exposure during installation or maintenance activities. Replace ceiling panels and repair disconnected ventilation ducts if needed.

BP Comment Quick Links
February 19, 2013 Out of Left FieldThe 10,786 Miles Not Technically Traveled By Sandy RosarioThis will shock you: a while back I made an entirely unoriginal joke. Edwin Jackson had signed a four-year contract with the Cubs and I said I was disappointed because that made him much less likely to change teams again. Not funny, I know, but fortunately it's the topic of the joke I'm more concerned with now. At the age of 29, Jackson will play for his eighth team this season. That, as realtors say, is a lot. So, if you're one of those people who would love to see Jackson play for every major-league team just for the novelty of it, then a four-year restriction on his changing teams isn't what you want to see. Now that Jackson appears to be staying put for a while, maybe he'll pass the scepter to Sandy Rosario. And maybe Rosario will refuse it because he has done almost as much this offseason as Jackson has in his career. When I say "done as much" I'm not referring to actual pitching. Rosario has thrown 7 2/3 innings over parts of three seasons for the Marlins while putting up a 15.26 ERA, so we're not talking on-field exploits here. No, it's his whiplash-inducing offseason. You see, in the span of two months, the end of October through December, Rosario changed organizations five times. He was traded once and selected off waivers four separate times. In a two-week span he was: 1. Cut by the Marlins and selected by the Red Sox 2. Cut by the Red Sox and traded to the A's 3. Cut by the A's and selected by the Red Sox By any standard that's a lot. I've never been traded but I imagine it's a stressful thing for a player to go through. The closest I can come is moving to a new city for a new job. I've done that and it was stressful, but it wasn't against my own will. In fact, it was very much my decision. None of these changes was Rosario's choice, which makes it more difficult, I'd imagine.

How Do I Optimize My Wireless LAN (WLAN)?
Optimal Wireless Technology
There are four main wireless technology standards used today, each of which offers varying maximum speeds, signal strengths (in terms of maximum distance), potential for interference, and of course, cost. Of the standards, the most recent, 802.11n, offers the greatest potential speed and maximum distance, but also one of the highest costs. If your budget supports it, ensuring all of your wireless routers, access points and network adapters are 802.11n-compliant will provide the best possible performance for your WLAN.
Additionally, you'll often benefit from better performance when using routers and network adapters that are from the same vendor. While this isn't always feasible with larger wireless networks, if you can transition your wireless equipment to 802.11n-capable devices from the same vendor, you'll improve your chances for optimal WLAN performance.

This is Chapter III of the Shoulder Saga. Please read Chapters I and II.
I walked into the hospital in my karate gi, and sauntered up to the first receptionist I could see and said in a controlled monotone:
"Hello. I have dislocated my shoulder. I would like to have it set."
She pointed the way to triage, where I repeated the above scene. The receptionist there asked a few questions and lead me into the back. On the way there I ran in to Fred's wife, Cheryl.
"Hey Coons! I didn't know you were in town! What are you doing here?" asked Cheryl.
"Getting repairs," I told her.
I was brought to one of the side rooms in the ER and laid on the bed, where I spent the next few two hours awkwardly shifting around trying to make myself comfortable, but couldn't, largely due to the swelling and muscle spasms and whatnot.
It was at this time that the endorphins wore off.
"Hello," said the doctor who had come to see me.
"I dislocated my shoulder!" I shouted through clenched teeth. "I need you to put it back!"
"Ok. My name is Dr. Anderson," he tells me. "This will all be over shortly…"
"Alright! Let's do this!" I told him, as I chomped down on my wallet, so I wouldn't bite through my tongue. Dr. Anderson stared at me blankly.
"Oooookay… we just need to get some x-rays, and then we can get started."
Dr. Anderson leaves, and the phlebotomist comes in, stating that he needs to give me a saline drip.
Fun fact: phlebotomists don't always go to school. In some places, it's all done as on-the-job training. As in, they just take interested parties off the street and show them where your blood vessels are, and let them slide metal pipes into them.
This is one of the reasons why I've never been real big on getting stabbed. I prefer to be the one doing the stabbing, as most people have it coming.
"Do I really need this?" I asked the stabber.
"Yeah, it makes it easier to administer IV drugs," he tells me.
"Proceed," I told him. I normally abstain from IV drugs, but at the moment, I was open to try new things.
So I allowed myself to be willingly stabbed and hooked up to tubes and furniture, leaving me with no usable arms. While this was going on, Joe was giving my personal information to one of the clerks who needed it to fill out all the paperwork needed to treat me. I spent most of the stabbing time shouting corrections at Joe. Mostly little things that Joe might not have learned in our eleven years of friendship, like I really do have drug allergies; and that Barbie is my sister, and not my mom.
Shortly thereafter, Cheryl came back and started preparing a syringe.
"What's that?" I ask.
She told me what it was, but I was not familiar with that.
"It's ten times stronger than opium," Cheryl tells me.
"So… its heroin," I tell her.
"It's not heroin!" snaps Cheryl.
"Are there supposed to be bubbles in that syringe?" I ask.
"What? There are so many better ways I can use my nurse powers to kill you," said Cheryl, as she filled my arm with bubbly opium. "You watch too many movies."
So I sat there for a while with gritted teeth, waiting for the opiates to work their magic.
"Is there anything I can do Coons? Anything I can get you?" asked Joe.
"Yeah, take some pictures of this for the website," I told him. "This should make for a few epic posts. I shall call it the Shoulder Saga!"
Joe's camera was in the car, but he had his camera phone. The results were horrifying.
Afterwards, Joe and I lounge about the room. Our conversation was mostly shop talk, about our respective grad programs. I start explain my research to him, and right when I started to get to the good part, is when the rumbling started. It was the x-ray tech, and she's a story all her own…
This is Chapter III of the Shoulder Saga. Please read Chapter IV.

Salinity and Chlorinity
In the chapter on chemical oceanography the composition of the dissolved constituents in sea water is considered in detail. Our present interest is only in the more abundant substances whose concentration will affect the physical properties. It has been found that, regardless of the absolute concentration, the relative proportions of the different major constituents are virtually constant, except in regions of high dilution (low salinity), where minor deviations may occur. From this rule it follows that any one of the major constituents may be used as a measure of the others and of the total amount of salt, and that water samples having the same total salt content, regardless of their source, are virtually identical in their physical properties.
Owing to the complexity of sea water, it is impossible by direct chemical analysis to determine the total quantity of dissolved solids in a given sample. Furthermore, it is impossible to obtain reproducible results by evaporating sea water to dryness and weighing the residue, because certain of the materials present, chiefly chloride, are lost in the last stages of drying. These difficulties can be avoided by following a technique yielding reproducible results which, although they do not represent the total quantity of dissolved solids, do represent a quantity of slightly smaller numerical value that is closely related and by definition is called the salinity of the water. This technique was established by an International Commission (Forch, Knudsen, and Sörensen, 1902), and on the basis of its work the salinity is defined as the total amount of solid material in grams contained in one kilogram of sea water when all the carbonate has been converted to oxide, the bromine and iodine replaced by chlorine, and 'all organic matter completely oxidized.
The determination of salinity by the method of the International Commission is rarely if ever carried out at the present time because it is too difficult and slow, but, owing to the constant composition of the dissolved solids, the determination of any of the elements present in relatively large quantity can be used as a measure of the other elements and of the salinity. Chloride ions make up approximately 55 per cent of the dissolved solids and can be determined with ease and accuracy by titration with silver nitrate, using potassium chromate as indicator.
Chlorinity. In the titration with silver nitrate, bromides and iodides are precipitated together with the chlorides, but in the computation it is assumed that they are chlorides. Chlorinity was therefore originally defined as the total amount of chlorine, bromine, and iodine in grams contained in one kilogram of sea water, assuming that the bromine and the iodine had been replaced by chlorine. This definition introduces a chlorine-equivalent that is dependent upon the atomic weights used in preparing the standard solutions. Since the time of the work of the International Commission, there have been changes in the atomic weights, and the relation between salinity and chlorinity as defined above is no longer strictly true. In order to retain this relationship and to avoid apparent changes in the chlorinity of sea water it has fortunately been possible to redefine chlorinity so that it is independent of changes in atomic weights.
The primary standard used in the determination of chlorinity is so-called "Normal Water" (Eau de mer normale), prepared by the Hydrographical Laboratories in Copenhagen, Denmark, and distributed to all oceanographic institutions. Some of these institutions made their own secondary standards by means of the Normal Water. As a result of world conditions the preparation of Normal Water has temporarily been taken over by the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution.
Normal Water is sea water whose chlorinity has been adjusted to about 19.4 ‰ and accurately determined by either direct or indirect comparisons with the original standard prepared in 1902. Hence, the chlorinities of all batches have been independent of changes in the atomic weights. A new primary standard (Urnormal-1937), prepared in 1937, will be used to establish the chlorinity of future batches of Normal Water for general distribution (Jacobsen and Knudsen, 1940). Comparison with earlier series of Normal Water showed the chlorinity of the new standard to be 19.381 ‰. As a more absolute method should be available with which to check future Normal Water preparations, the 1937 primary standard was analyzed, using extremely pure "atomic weight silver." The equivalent amount of silver necessary to precipitate the halides was determined and the ratio of chlorinity to silver was found to be 0.3285233. On this basis a new definition of chlorinity was
The ratio of chlorine to silver, using the 1940 atomic weights (Ag = 107.880 and Cl = 35.457), is 0.3286707. Hence the ratio of chlorine-equivalent to the chlorinity is:
When dealing with the chemistry of sea water, other substances are generally determined and reported on a volume basis, wherefore it is convenient to introduce chlorosity (Cl) (Intern. Assn. Phys. Oceanogr., 1939), which is the property corresponding to the chlorinity expressed as grams per 20°-liter (p. 169). Chlorosity is obtained by multiplying the chlorinity of a water sample by its density at 20°. Table 8 gives the corresponding values of chlorosity for chlorinities between 15.00 and 21.00 ‰.
Methods for Obtaining Salinity, Other than Titration with Silver Nitrate. The salinity can also be determined from the density of a water sample at a given temperature or by measuring either the electrical conductivity or the refractive index, both of which depend upon the salinity. The character of these properties will be dealt with below, but their application to salinity determinations will be briefly discussed here.
Determinations of density are appropriately included under methods for obtaining salinity, because such determinations are generally made at
Chlorinity, ‰ | 15.00 | 16.00 | 17.00 | 18.00 | 19.00 | 20.00 | 21.00 |
Chlorosity, g/L | 15.28 | 16.32 | 17.37 | 18.41 | 19.46 | 20.51 | 21.57 |
.28 | .32 | .37 | .41 | .46 | .51 | .57 |
Measurements of the electrical conductivity have been employed on board the Carnegie and by the U. S. Coast Guard as the routine method for obtaining salinities. Owing to the relatively high concentration of the ions and the effect that temperature has upon the conductivity, the apparatus and the technique employed are rather complicated (Wenner, Smith, and Soule, 1930; Soule, 1932). These instruments are standardized empirically, using sea-water samples of known salinity (determined by silver nitrate titrations against Normal Water), and the values for the unknown samples are obtained by interpolation. In order to obtain
According to Thomas, Thompson, and Utterback (1934) the Grinnel Jones conductivity bridge may be used with Washburn pipette-type cells, the constants of which are determined with standard potassium chloride solutions.
Circuit used in measurements of the electrical conductivity as a means of obtaining the salinity of sea water. Symbols are explained in the text.
[Full Size]
The refractive index of sea water, which will be discussed later (p. 70) in greater detail, varies only slightly within the ranges of temperature and salinity encountered in the sea, but, in an interferometer, differences in refractive index can be measured with extreme accuracy. At a given temperature such differences depend only upon the salinity, and special types of interferometers have therefore been developed for indirect determinations of salinity, using water of known salinity as a standard. Monochromatic light must be used because the refractive index varies with the wave length. This method of determining salinity has not been widely used.

PICK TWELVE ANGRY MEN Reginald Rose�s 1957 courtroom drama is as familiar as a beef dip that�s been on the deli menu for decades. And Scott Ellis� touring show for Roundabout Theatre Company has been crossing the country for so many months, this ensemble plays it as tautly as a ballet. Richard Thomas plays doubting Thomas as an Ivy League skeptic among Brooklyn sports fans and a European watchmaker. Thomas shows twitches of both reflectiveness and sarcasm as he casts a long shadow over the �guilty� opinion held by the 11 other fellas in a sweaty jury room about to step back into court and render their verdict. The case is that of a ghetto kid accused of murdering his father, with a couple of witnesses supporting the charge. Dissecting the logic of the witnesses� testimony, both the play and this production are glorious in their meticulousness, in the way when one new �not guilty� vote emerges from the discussion, it�s met with an explosion of fury, like dogs barking when a rabbit is dropped outside their fence. The music then shifts into adagio as reason returns. Allen Moyer�s grimy set provides the single locale for a visual dynamic that�s as hypnotic as the ebbs and floes of a lava lamp. Lovely performances also by George Wendt�s rotund, slightly baffled foreman, and by Alan Mandell as a principled old codger who, at any minute, is either going to launch into a tap dance, pass out or pass away. In the end, though, the play steals the thunder in its magnificent clash between evidence and prejudice, between truth and assumption, that what we take to be the orderly and empirical is, in fact, largely grounded in fiction, distortion and subliminal rage. And that�s nothing new. Roundabout Theatre Company and Center Theatre Group at the Ahmanson Theatre, 135 N. Grand Ave., dwntwn.; Tues.-Sat., 8 p.m.; Sun., 7:30 p.m.; Sat.-Sun., 2 p.m.; thru...

Recipe by luvluv1
"'A taste you'll never forget.'"
Watch video tips and tricks
1/2 cup butter, softened
1/4 cup sifted confectioners' sugar
1 cup sifted all-purpose flour
1 cup white sugar
2 eggs
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice, or more to taste
2 teaspoons grated lemon peel
1/4 teaspoon salt
3 tablespoons confectioners' sugar
Good recipe, just touched it up a bit. I used half almond flour and half all purpose flour for the crust and added an extra egg yolk to the filling. Also, by using 1/8 cup of brown sugar and 1/8 cup confectioners sugar in the crust mixture, I was able to cut the filling sugar down to 3/4 cup. Added an extra egg yolk to the filling as well to make it more custard-y. It was awesome I will definitely make this again.
This tart was a big hit at my house. I used a nonstick tart pan with a removable bottom for a nice presentation, and had no problem with the moistness of the dough. I love lemon, so I used a little extra juice and zest, which was a nice counterpoint to the sweet crust. This was simple to make and I will definitely make it again.

had a lot of trouble pressing the dough into the pan - it kept crumbling and not adhering to the bottom of the pan (I used a glass pan). Finally found I could get it to stick if I used a fork dipped into hot water. Kind of a pain :{

Did you know that you can do home detective work to find out which kitty is the outside of the litterbox pooping and/or peeing culprit? It's cheap, it's easy and it's a great story for your next Cocktail party.
If one of your friendly household felines is pooping outside of the litterbox, you can shave little pieces of non-toxic crayons (must remember which cat got which color) and put them in a small amount of food (something yummy like canned food or tuna). Wait for the colorful poo to see which cat is the culprit!
To determine who is urinating out of the box, give a few drops of different colored food coloring in each cat's food.

10 Years Later, Was the Iraq War Worth It? >
The Costs of Iraq Are Clear While the Benefits Are Fuzzy
Don't criticize Bush, criticize the war's poor military planning
March 20, 2013
Was the Iraq war worth it? This question is difficult to address. The wounds are still too raw, the dissension and division in our country that resulted from the war still too vivid, to permit reflective and dispassionate assessment. I am still wrestling with the emotions of it myself, as are many Americans, especially those who gave so much in the war and who are always in our thoughts and prayers.
First a word on the initial decision to invade. I believe the Bush administration has been criticized too severely for this decision. Whether you agree with it or not, I do not believe it was motivated by adventurism, hubris, neo-imperialism, or spite. It was not, and should not have been portrayed by the Bush administration as, a response to 9/11 in any direct way. But nonetheless, the invasion was intended to unseat one of the worst and most dangerous dictators of the late 20th century. That cannot be all bad.
[See a collection of political cartoons on defense spending.]
That said, I am willing to criticize strongly the poor military and political planning that went into the preparations (or lack thereof) for how to administer Iraq once Saddam was gone. Wishful thinking by the Bush administration and some elements of the military characterized that process far too much.
In terms of the cost-benefit calculus of the war, the costs are, alas, all too evident. Nearly 5,000 dead Americans, another 20,000 or more permanently disabled, and $1 trillion in expenses. At least 100,000 Iraqis dead. A U.S. administration forever tarred by an unpopular war. Goodwill towards America squandered throughout the world. Opportunity costs in Afghanistan, where the war effort languished for many years as we devoted most resources to the Iraq conflict.
[See a collection of political cartoons on the Middle East.]
By contrast, the benefits of the war are generally more hypothetical, intangible, or unmeasurable. Some form of a democracy in Iraq instead of the Hussein family, though with uncertain prospects for the former at this point. Confidence that Iraq will not develop weapons of mass destruction anytime soon, even if it turned out that Saddam was not holding the widely expected chemical and biological arms himself when we invaded. Less threat to Iraq's neighbors from an aggressive regime in Baghdad than under Saddam—even if the possibility of renewed civil war within Iraq itself cannot yet be definitively dismissed.
Back to the big question: Was it worth it? By my calculus, the costs are clear and large, the benefits are fuzzy and fragile. But I do hope that, if the latter firm up in the years ahead, someday historians will have a healthy debate about whether the benefits have been on a par with the losses suffered along the way.

I LOVE this! I will be doing this!
Good Morning! I just wanted you to know that I awarded you the Stylish Blogger Award. I love your Blog. Have a Super weekend.
It would be good to wrap around a wreath in lieu of yarn like I've been seeing a lot. I think it would be pretty to do white "tarn" around the wreath and add red rosettes for Valentine's Day. Very nice!
I am planning on going to a second hand store, buying like 30 t-shirts, making yarn, crocheting a rug for my entry way. The t-shirt material is super soft on your feet, it's completely washable, and you won't feel bad about it's cost.
I think that is a great idea! Sadly, I don't know how to crochet (its on my list of things to learn) but I am in the process of making a latch hook rug from t-shirts!
I was feeling super stressed this weekend about some tests I have this week so I took a crafty moment and made some t-shirt yarn. Thanks for the tutorial :)
If you can't knit or crochet, learn to finger knit - it's easy and quick; I made a hat in about an hour or so :-) and you don't need any equipment.
I crocheted an large oval rug this way in college-except I just tore up shirts and knotted them together--you are so much more clever!! Then when I had babies I attempted to crochet a large rug out of denim. It didnt turn out as well :(
excellent tutorial thank you!
I can't wait to try this!!! My mother-in-law was telling me about this :)
t-shirt yarn..?? Nice article and nice invention... I like it on my own mind... Thanks for sharing,
We are open for business! Both online and local.. Welcome and Shopping your best one......!!! Once Vamped T-Shirt Printing Thank You..

Memorials to the Victims of Salem Witch Trial
In 1692, Salem Village was the site of the infamous Witch Trial, 26 men and women were falsely accused being witches and they were wrongly executed. Due to this infamous event, the Salem Village was renamed to Danvers in 1752. A memorial to the Salem Witch Trial was erected in the center of Danvers. Ten miles from Salem Village was city of Salem, it had only minimal involvement the trial, but due to its name, people have mistaken it for the site of Salem Witch Trial. It has a memorial to the victims of the Salem, it is a three feet high wall in shape of U. There are 26 benches on the wall, each with a name of a person wrongly executed (see photo). Salem is also famous for the Witch Museum, the birth place of Nathaniel Hawthorne and the House of the Seven Gables which was in Hawthrone's famous book "The House of the Seven Gable".

First Victims of Salem Witch Trial.
19 July 1692 | Salem Village, Massachusetts
Rebecca Nurse, Susannah Martin, Elizabeth Howe, Sarah Good and Sarah Wildes were the first to be accused as witches and were executed on the Gallows Hill. They were the first victims, but unfortunately many more victims will follow them to the Gallows Hill.
Sarah Good was not very popular and by account, she was "mean as witch", but they accused her of being a real witch. It has been conjunctured that her husband William Good testified against her so he can get out of the marriage. Apparently, William failed to live up to his name as being Good.
Today, their names are on the stone benches on the Salem Witch Memorial in Salem, Massachusetts ( see pictures )
Halt to Salem Witch Trial
8 october 1692 | Danvers, Massachusetts
In Octobor, 1692, the governor of Massachusetts, Phips stepped in and prohibits further arrests, and dissolves the Salem Witch Trial. In May of 1693, Phips released from prison all remaining accused or convicted witches. At one point, even Phips wife was acused being a witch.
The Village of Salem was renamed to Danvers in 1752 as the residents wanted to erase its infamous past. Today, there is a Witch Trial Memorial at the city center ( see Witch Trial Memorial picture ) and Rebecca Nurse, the first victim of Witch Trial, her home is still there.
Witch Hysteria Begins
20 January, 1692 | Salem Village, Massachusetts
The witch hysteria started in what was then, the Village of Salem in the Massachusetts Colony, when the eleven-year old Abigail Williams and nine-year-old Elizabeth Parris begin their strange behaviors. The girls later girls later accuse Sarah Good and Sarah Osborne of witchcraft.
In 1953, the American playwright Arthur Miller revived attention to the trials with his prize-winning play The Crucible . Miller used the trials as an allegory for the anti-Communist investigations of Senator Joseph McCarty and the House Un-American Activities Committee during the 1950s, which bearing a lot of similarity to the Salem Witch Trial, except no one was executed, but many had their reputations damaged by false accusations, including the famous actor Charlie Chaplin.
McCarty's activities was un-American!
