When your ego is big enough that you believe that earthquakes in America have moved somewhere else because of something you did.
Rhett and Link were so egoseismic that they believe the earthquakes in California have moved away since they moved into California.
by traceur22 March 05, 2012
The belief that ones prescence in a place might have somethign to do with the decreasing of seismic activity, coined by Link from youtube channel rhettandlink and rhettandlink2
-Thinking that the earthquakes have receded because of us is egocentric link
No, it's egoseismic
No, it's egoseismic
by taurus20 March 05, 2012
Thinking that your presence lowers seismic activity.
Link on Good Mythical Morning was egoseismic thinking that when he and Rhett moved to California the earthquakes moved back to North Carolina.
by SacrificialCat359 March 05, 2012
A flawed egostistical way of thinking esp. That earthquakes flee from whereever you are located; a specific form of egotism
Link was displaying egoseismic behavior, so Rhett shut him down real fast. Then an awesome 14 yearold Youtuber Urban Dictionary'd it.
by Raeven97 March 05, 2012
The belief that one's personal location directly affects the epicenter of earthquakes. A pun of "egocentric".
Friend1: Since we moved to California, there hasn't been an earthquake, but back in North Carolina, where we're from, there WAS one!
Friend2: Maybe it's US! Like, where we live can't get hit!
Friend1: That's not how it works. Quit being egoseismic.
Friend2: Maybe it's US! Like, where we live can't get hit!

"Yo man, i feel egoseismic cuz' there was an earthquake and I predicted it. And when I moved to California, we directed the natural disasters to North Carolina."

The belief that earthquakes are relative to where you are in the world.
Link: "Maybe the fact that we moved to California moved the epicenter of earthquakes in the U.S. from California to where we were from."

text: BRAVE Partners LLP: Insurance - Finance and Capital 2009 Insurance Industry: Deep pockets Lloyds is the shining example of how the insurance industry has emerged from the credit crunch unscathed - or has it? Claims on professional indemnity covers lurk beneath the surface. When investments go wrong, investors - spurred on by class action lawyers in the USA - look for the deepest pockets to sue. It is clear that the major banks have holes in the bottom of their pockets, so; regardless of how deep they are, there is unlikely to be much cash down there. However, these major organisations do buy significant amounts of professional indemnity insurance. These covers, such as Directors & Officers (D&O) and Errors & Omissions (E&O), are the likely target of the emerging law suits against the banks. The exposure Professional Indemnity (PI) cover insures against claims of negligence, or even fraud, that arises from directors or employees of a professional services business. Certain financial services businesses must have a defined level of cover as a regulatory requirement. Others choose to take the cover as a general protection against risks. PI experienced high claims during the last credit downturn. The decision that some institutions had not presented investors with a proper analysis of the risk of investing in securities issues by; Enron, WorldCom, Global Crossing and the like, pushed those investor losses onto the distributing banks and from them into the bank PI covers and the insurance markets. Some underwriters were hit hard. The SVB syndicates at Lloyds being one example. SVB is now rebranded as Novae, the management team having done an outstanding job of turning the business around and rebuilding it. Madoff with the money The Bernie Madoff scandle is a prime candidate for PI claims. $50bn has disappeared and investors, some of whom tragically lost everything, are looking to recoup. Here financial institutions were recommending the Madoff funds to investors and channelling money in through feeder funds. If it is found that the financial institutions should have undertaken better due dilligence, so that they might spot the irregularities, then this would lead to a claim of negligence. A PI insurance is likely to cover that claim. In fact the Wall Street Journal dated May 27, 2009 reports that Banco Santander SA, one of the largest conduits of investor money to the Madoff funds, agreed to pay $235m to settle potential legal claims by the trustee of the defunct Madoff firm. If Banco Santander has PI insurance that will almost certainly be a claim. www.bravepartners.com | firstname.lastname@example.com Page 1 BRAVE Partners LLP: Insurance - Finance and Capital 2009 Occurrence vs claims made Casualty business, which PI insurance falls under, is the problem child of the insurance industry. Most insurers that fail are brought down by casualty claims in some form. BRAVE Partner Richard Enos has some insights here. He was a treaty reinsurance broker for US casualty lines. As the BRAVE partners travel, as they do from time to time, up the coast of Long Island Sound, Richard always has a brief comment about how many reinsurers there used to be around Stamford. Most are gone and most are gone due to issues with long term casualty liabilities. We should briefly mention, lest we upset them, the excellent team at Berkshire Hathaway owned National Indemnity who are still in Stamford and still going strong because they are far to savvy to find themselves on the wrong side of bad business. One of the consequences of the demise of so many casualty reinsurers was a restructuring of the risk. Most casualty business is now written on a claims made basis, rather than an occurrence basis. The difference is straightforward. Occurrence basis claim Insurance or reinsurance on an occurrence basis means that the insurer or reinsurer is liable for a claim that is made for a loss that occurred in the year that the party was insured. Asbestos is perhaps the best example of how this can lead to problems. Insurers are liable for claims that arise from workers inhaling asbestos dust in the 1960s "What's asbestos" when the problem did not even become apparent, let along get settled, for 20 years or more. There are still claims emerging even "Don't know, but the premiums are today. Pricing and reserving under these scenarios is all but good" impossible. Large swathes of occurrence casualty business should also be a red flag for potential acquirers of a business. All those Parody of a conversation on the Lloyds floor in the 1980s reserves can quickly turn into a black hole. A somewhat witty friend of BRAVE Partners, who is general counsel of a major insurer, imagines the conversations between underwriters at Lloyds: "What is asbestos?" "Don't know, but the premiums are great!" Claims made basis In contrast, a claims made insurance contract covers for losses that arise from claims that are actually made during the year of cover. To return to the asbestos issue, a claims made cover would only pay as people began to fall sick from inhaling asbestos dust and the link to the asbestos exposure was made so that liability was established. A claims made cover has many advantages, all of which arise from the fact that a lot more is known about the claim when the cover kicks in. The next shoe to drop Curiously, among the major writers of PI cover are the very insurance companies that got themselves into difficulty whilst dabbling in capital markets business: AIG and XL Capital. There is an interesting lesson in diversification here! www.bravepartners.com | email@example.com Page 2 BRAVE Partners LLP: Insurance - Finance and Capital 2009 AIG and XL were two of the main underwriters of PI insurance. Both are currently on the more distressed end of the market, leaving a wide open opportunity for the Lloyds syndicates who write the risk. An attractive business The PI market looks attractive. Capacity is seriously down and demand is up. Rates must be rising and terms must be tightening. Furthermore, banks - driven by regulators - must be cleaning up their operations. The question is how to take advantage of this. Lloyds Investors who wish to get involved in this risk might look no further than Lloyds. However, backing the right underwriters at Lloyds is extremely important (see "First Class" also available on this site). As a stark reminder, just look at the adverse development at SVB from about 2002 to 2006. Once again, congratulations to the new management team there who did turn the business round. Insurance linked securities Insurance linked securities (ILS) are designed to allow opportunistic capital enter the insurance and reinsurance markets. It would seem that the ILS route might hold the key for interested investors to enter the market. The Avalon Re story Third party liability has been securitised before in a cat bond called Avalon Re which was sponsored by OCIL, the oil industry risk pool. The website for Oil Casualty Insurance, Ltd. (OCIL) states that OCIL is a major provider of Excess General Liability insurance and is totally dedicated to servicing energy companies. A quick check of the "Third party liability was current policyholders tag will reveal the major oil companies that securitised in the Avalon Re deal. hold policies. Investors in the bonds lost money on two tranches. The Avalon Re bond was a three year bond. Losses accumulated on The mistake that investors made events. The exact details are not important. We will assume that was that they acted as their own events 4 to 6 impacted the C tranche of the bond; events 7 to 10 the underwriter. Underwriting liability B tranche and; events 11 to 14 the A tranche. An event was a liability risk requires a seasoned claim of more than something like $150m against OCIL policyholder. professional - and a good one at In other words, a liability claim of more than $150m against sixty- that." something major, international energy and chemicals companies. Christopher Cloke-Browne As records show, Avalon Re bonds did not turn out well, with both Managing Partner the B and C tranches losing money for investors. BRAVE Partners LLP The BRAVE partners had a very different view of the likelihood and frequency at which the trigger events would occur to the credit www.bravepartners.com | firstname.lastname@example.com Page 3 BRAVE Partners LLP: Insurance - Finance and Capital 2009 proprietary credit traders with whom they worked at the time. Maybe that is why BRAVE Partners looks at both the insurance and energy sectors - there are some interesting overlaps. The result would suggest that the BRAVE partners view was right - and note we did not buy the bond. Do ILS - but do it right! It would seem as if the solution might be for an entity that knows the market well to approach the best underwriters to discuss the provision of some short term opportunistic capital. But wait! That would be a sidecar deal. • Financial market losses lead to To BRAVE Partners the PI insurance market and similar are ripe for claims on Professional Indemnity opportunistic capital to back the best underwriters.

Of course, there are several things to consider. For one, how much would it drive up the cost of the Wiimote? Secondly, how crappy would it be to have to (eventually) buy all new Wiimotes? Thirdly, until Nintendo shows off a killer app for the thing (as okay as Wii Sports Resort looks, it's definitely not a killer app), does anyone even care?

Perfect LocationPosted Oct 16, 2014
Pros: The location to Darling Harbour and all Sydney had to offer. The close proximity to public transport Ferry, Train and buses. Clean modern facilities.
Cons: Having the shower over the high deep bath care was needed getting in and out at all times.Less agile find hard. Feather pillows no good for allergies.
Location: Perfect location to Darling Harbour, the Hop on Hop off bus for sightseeing has a stop very nearby. Short walk up to city centre.
First time booking online in a location we new nothing about. On check in everything was ready with no hassles or queries. Reception staff were pleasant, friendly and efficient. We checked in 1 hour early and our room was ready. The balcony view was a surprise as we had more than a glimpse of Darling Harbour. We had only booked 4 nights but as the location was so great we decided to extend our stay. The hotel was fully booked for the Saturday night but staff were very helpful at finding us 1 night at a hotel nearby( where they normally only take weekend bookings for 2 or more nights).We then returned to Adina for another 3 nights.Got the same room as requested. Our 16 yr old son had a rollaway bed, he found it to be quite comfortable. The pillows are feather this was an irritation for my allergies, did ask for different type but as they didn't appear assumed none available.

Nice place, great location.Posted Sep 26, 2014
Cons: When we checked in the room smelled of cigarettes, but 30 mins with the air con going got rid of the smell.
The perfect location for a sydney city holiday. Only a minute's walk to Darling Harbour. All the tourist attractions but a stack of restaurants and cafes as well. We had a balcony but there wasnt alot to see from the 1st floor and there was plenty of road noise. Try and get a higher apartment if you want to use the balcony...

Very nice place to stayPosted Aug 28, 2014
Location: Very close to the aquarium and Darling Harbour. For kids, there's an amazing playground on the south end of the harbor.
Location was great, room was great. Only (small) complaint -- I have a pretty sensitive nose, and there was a spot on the carpet that must have been puked on or something and cleaned; but the smell lingered. (Only because I was on the floor playing with my daughter did I notice it.)

Great hotel but why do I have to pay for wifi?Posted Jul 26, 2014
Pros: Location, close to city and Darling Harbour, and its cleanliness
Cons: Don't charge extra for wifi
Location: Shops in Pitt street and Darling Harbour
This is an excellent hotel, situated in a great location. But, nowadays most travellers would expect the cost of wifi to be included in the room rate. It is very strange that Adina chooses to charge extra for access to such a basic item.

Great location... Nothing to complain about herePosted Jul 25, 2014 on Hotels.com
This is probably the best hotel I have stayed in ever. Central location to all darling harbour facilities. Walking distance to Star City and Skywalk tower. The only problem we had was there was nowhere to get a beer before 11am lol. Would definately recommend. The bed was made each day for us even without request, comfortable pillows plenty of room in the apartment. wonderful views overlooking the harbour. great view of fireworks. food delivery from numerous outlets available at reasonable prices.

Unless your site is in a rather uncompetitive industry it won't be able to bring traffic from keyword searches without a lot of time spent building your count of backlinks. So what do you do if you have a small site and don't want to wait years before the traffic comes? The answer is pretty simple really. Build more pages and get more traffic.

The tab for the incentives will be split roughly equally between the D.C. school system and Harvard's American Inequity Lab, which already underwrites a similar New York City program.

Watch 'Frozen' At Coca-Cola Field On August 7!
Want to watch Disney's 'Frozen' on the big screen? Here is your chance!
Want to watch Disney's 'Frozen' on the big screen? Here is your chance!
We know, we know -- 'Frozen' parodies are nothing new. But even after all this time, there are still some clever ones to enjoy.
A new report by a UK parenting site suggests that more moms in 2014 are naming their babies Elsa compared to before, thanks to the success of Disney's 'Frozen.'
If nothing else, it breathes new life into the catchy 'Frozen' song.
Pearl Jam mashes up 'Let it Go' from the movie 'Frozen' with their 1993 hit song, 'Daughter,' while performing live in Milan, Italy.
An 18-year-old model on Instagram has become an Internet sensation for looking just like Elsa from Disney's 'Frozen.'
Sure, you have heard "Let It Go" from Disney's 'Frozen' a million times, but you've never heard it like this!
By now you've seen a thousand versions of the song 'Let It Go' from 'Frozen,' but this one might be the cleverest. Any mom will recognize this mom's troubles.
You may already feel like it's a horror movie, but ya can't fight the numbers...it's a hit.
It's not often something family-friendly like Disney's "Frozen" collides with family-inappropriate Family Guy....but when it does, it's actually pretty impressive.
You'd swear this actually IS Set
In what had become an inevitability at this point with the insanely rising box office numbers, Disney's smash hit animated film 'Frozen' has now become the highest grossing animated film of all time, usurping former crown holder 'Toy Story 3,' which held the title since 2010. And judging by these numbers and the love for the film, it doesn't look like 'Frozen' is going to "Let It Go" so easily.
When I was a kid, my parents used to say I had to have been a Barrymore, because I was a tad bit dramatic (who would'a thunk I would parlay my "acting" into a silly radio career years later!).

Buddy Guy and Jonny Lang will perform "An Evening of Blues, Rock & Soul" at 8 p.m., Friday, Sept. 20, at Coronado Performing Arts Center, 314 N. Main St., Rockford. Tickets ($39, $49, $59 and $89) go on sale at 10 a.m., Friday, May 17.

Buddy Guy, the legendary Chicago blues guitarist, and Jonny Lang, the Grammy Award-winning Midwest native and fiery blues rock instrumentalist, will perform separate sets.
A showman known for his riveting, virtuoso playing and fervent vocals, Guy is a five-time Grammy Award-winner who was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2005. Lang is a Fargo, N.D., native and one-time Minneapolis resident lauded by U.S. News and World Report for having "the voice of a grizzled blues veteran … and guitar skills to match."
Since the early 1960s, Buddy Guy has left an indelible mark in the development of blues music with his fevered electric guitar playing and impassioned vocals. A legendary pioneer of Chicago's fabled West Side sound, he has been a chief guitar influence to rock titans like Hendrix, Clapton and Vaughan.
Guy's hits include "Damn Right," "I've Got The Blues," "Feels Like Rain" and "Slippin' In." In addition to his Grammys, he has received 23 W.C. Handy Blues Awards (the most any artist has received), the Billboard magazine Century Award for distinguished artistic achievement, the Presidential National Medal of Arts and a Kennedy Center Honor in December of 2012. He is ranked 30th in Rolling Stone's list of "100 Greatest Guitarists of All Time," and his autobiography is a New York Times bestseller. He also has a new record scheduled to come out this summer.
Jonny Lang became a professional musician at age 12, when he began playing with the Bad Medicine Blues Band. Several months later, he became their leader, and the newly renamed Kid Jonny Lang and the Big Bang relocated from Fargo to Minneapolis to release their debut album, Smokin', in 1995. While kids his age were in high school, he was touring with music giants including The Rolling Stones and Aerosmith, becoming known for his unusual voice, guitar solos and frequent use of wide vibratos. Lie to Me, their 1997 multi-platinum album propelled by the hit title track, introduced him to a national audience. He also won a Grammy Award for Best Gospel Album in 2006 for Turn Around.

Where to Buy Christmas Trees – in Lausanne and around
For those who prefer not to chop a living tree, Ecosapin is here for you. The concept is simple, you get the tree delivered right to your door before the holiday and taken away after. The trees are kept alive in pots and they will be re-planted, and be re-used for the year after. Very convenient, but it's pricey.
For example the cheapest and smallest, 100/130cm-tall Spruce (epicéa) cost chf89. The price include delivery but not pick up. For pick-up you will have to pay an extra chf19. Or, you can keep the tree and plant it in your garden.
Note that when you buy a cut living tree and dispose it properly after you finish with it, they will be 100% composted and won't be thrown into a landfill or incinerator. Disposing it properly means that you have to bring the tree outside your house or building on the day specified by your commune (consult your garbage calendar or your commune website) or bring it to your local déchetterie. Please remove all decorations, as they most likely can't decompose. Last year we had a small tree and managed to cut all the branches and used them as mulch in the garden. The remaining was thrown into our compost bin.

Action 1000 Sapins is organized by Lions Club Lavaux, this year's profit from Christmas tree sales will go to Cœur Battant, an association that helps families whose children have cardiomyopathy.
You can pre-order the Nordmann tree until 5 December 2014 online, by fax (021 213 00 01), or post (Lions Club Lavaux, CP 358, 1009 Pully). The trees come in 3 different sizes between 120-200cm and cost between chf70-90. Pick up on Sunday, 13 December 2014 at Collège du Grand-Pont in Lutry or Collège Bossonnens.
Chapin.ch (sapin-de-noel.ch)
Chapin.ch is an extension of the farm products delivery company La Belle Bleue. Cost of a tree starts from CHF39 and delivery CHF15-20. They also offer a Christmas tree bag (CHF8.50) from where CHF2 will be donated to Handicap International.
IKEA Aubonne will sell their Christmas trees (Nordmann) on 5-6 December 2014. Cost CHF24.95/tree and if you are a member of IKEA Family, you'll get a CHF15 gift voucher.
Garden centers
I believe all hardware stores that have garden centers – Coop Brico+Loisir, Migros Do+It, Obi, Jumbo Hornbach, Landi, among others – have Christmas trees. Hornbach and Landi usually have the least expensive ones, starting from around CHF20 for a 100/130cm tree.
Local tree farms or markets
- la Ferme Aebi, avenue Victor-Ruffy 66, 1012 Lausanne (info)
- Famille Mugnier, 1266 Duillier (info)
- Sapins de Noël Jaquier Frères, 1521 Curtilles (info)
- Your commune (municipal) may also have a Christmas tree sale program. You most likely have to reserve in advance.
For those of you who prefer an artificial tree, you can get it in many places inside the city, including Globus, Manor, and many hardware stores like Coop Brico+Loisir and Migros Do-It. If you prefer buying it online, try Tchibo.
However, if I may ask, could you try to find a second hand one first – perhaps through anibis? I know there are always many artificial trees in good condition, waiting to be re-homed.
Happy tree shopping and decorating!

Michael Jordan's Top All-Star Game Moments
1985 All-Star Game
Jordan is a starter as a rookie - a pretty rare feat, given that it has only happened three times in the last 20 years. This All-Star Game is memorable for a big reason: the "Freeze-out," aka the effort by some of the veteran players (mostly Isiah Thomas) to not pass the ball to Jordan in his first All-Star Game. He made only two shots for 7 points, but if his legendary teammates like Thomas, Moses Malone, Larry Bird and Julius "Dr. J" Erving were that afraid of the young cat, it's pretty clear who REALLY won.
And oh-by-the-way, Jordan took on Dominique Wilkins, Clyde Drexler, and Dr. J in the Dunk Contest, widely appreciated as one of the best of all time. 'Nique won this one, but Jordan had moves later on...

Steakhouses in Tucson?
- Jess321 May 1, 2008 12:13 AM
I'm trying to book a dinner reservation for one of the nights of my graduation weekend (May 16th and 17th) from the U of A, and my family wants to eat a steakhouse one of the nights (the other nights are Vivace and Feast, tentatively). I've been to Sullivan's and find it just a little above average, and the same goes for Flemings, so I'd like to avoid those places. I've heard good things about McMahon's and Chad's Steakhouse (across the street from one another), and wanted to know opinions of these two. I don't want to venture out to Daisy Mae's or Lil Abner's, and aside from the ones I've listed, I don't know of others in Tucson. Any suggestions or opinions you have are very much needed! Or if anyone thinks there are nice fish places in Tucson that would be better than a steakhouse, let me know...TIA!
Sounds like you've nailed my two recommendations with McMahon's and Chad's. They're both local restaurants, both very well regarded. McMahon's has a similar atmosphere to Ruth's Chris or Flemings, excellent wine list, subdued and elegant atmosphere, cigar bar, etc, and probably has the best steaks in town.\
Chads is a little less formal, their steak presentation less over-wrought, focused less on the sauces/sides/wines/service and more on the steak and it's preparation, which is something of a trade-off, as those items are all outstanding at McMahons.
My personal take: McMahon's for a special celebration, or a really nice date, Chad's for a great steak dinner out with family and/or friends.
Oh, and for fish:
Kingfisher and Bluefin are my favorites in town, but I wouldn't choose them instead of a steak at McMahons or Chads unless I was REALLY in the mood for seafood. (Side note: The bar at Kingfisher is one of my favorites for drinks and snackies.)
I actually wento McMahon's with my folks when I graduated from UA, and it was great. Back then you could smoke cigars in the bar. No more.
Definately recommend McMahons its very good and I usually am not a steak person. The steaks are unique and different from other places. If you don't feel like steak North for unique italian is really upbeat and fun and the food it great!
Not necessarily a steakhouse per se, but I had a great steak at McClintock's. It's a bit of a drive, but it's in an absolutely beautiful, isolated location amongst dense saguaro growth, etc. Really special view and atmosphere. Definitely worth considering.
thank you for your help everyone! I called McMahon's and they're completely full on reservations for the whole weekend (not surprised), but I got on the wait list so they'll call me if there's an opening. I made a reservation for Chad's that night too in case McMahon's doesn't work out...either way, I'm excited! they both sound pretty good to me.

Created: 02/02/2014 8:10 PM KAALtv.com
MINNEAPOLIS (AP) - The wife of former Vice President Walter Mondale has entered hospice care.
A statement released Sunday on behalf of the Mondale family says Joan Mondale entered hospice care Friday. The statement was released by Westminster Presbyterian Church in Minneapolis, where the Mondales have been longtime members.
The family is asking for privacy at this time, as Joan's "life on this earth moves peacefully to its close."
Joan Mondale is 83.
She built a reputation as a national cultural arts advocate while her husband was vice president, and was so passionate about the arts that she was nicknamed "Joan of Art."
She herself was an avid potter when Walter Mondale was elected Jimmy Carter's vice president in 1976.

It's been almost a week since I had the chance to watch this piece of art.
For more than a decade, Alejandro Gonzalez Iñarritu has rapidly become one of the most talented and admired Latin American filmmakers in the world. This Mexican artist, the same one who brought us Amores Perros, Babel, 21 grams and Biutiful has made it again!
Birdman is probably one of the best representations of Magical Realism in the form of film. Alejandro Gonzalez Iñarritu has taken the Latin American Magical Realism movement from books to the big screen. I'd dare to say he's the new Gabriel Garcia Marquez of cinema.
The whole movie is an experiment of the most realistic and even shocking representations of the circumstances of being an actor, wonderfully exaggerated with magical scenes, that not only fit perfectly, but turn the dialogues and the entire screenplay to a next level of understanding.
In addition to the exceptional work of the filmmaker and writers, I can't avoid giving huge credit to Michael Keaton and Edward Norton. As usual, they were impeccable. I actually think that this performance will earn Keaton a nomination for an Academy Award.
Be open to experience something different, something intense, something outstanding. One of the best films of the year without doubt.

Renasant, BancorpSouth acquisitions seen boosting earnings per share
by Ted Carter
Published: February 17,2014
Tags: BancorpSouth, banking, Business, finance, Mississippi, Renasant
Analysts see bump-ups in earnings per share from growth achieved by Tupelo's Renasant Bank through acquisition of M&F Bank of Kosciusko and growth expected by Tupelo neighbor BancorpSouth's announced acquisitions in Texas and Louisiana.
The $5.7 billion Renasant's first full quarter with M&F was a solid one, Birmingham, Ala.-based Stern Agee reported, citing a .03 percent increase in net interest margin from the third quarter which helped to drive net interest income growth of 30 percent.
"Cost savings from the deal should drop to the bottom line in 2014, along with solid loan growth and the continued reduction in credit expenses," Stern Agee said in a late January report. The analysts say savings from the deal should benefit Renasant by an EPS of 28 cents.
The publicly held Renasant's acquisition of M&F added $1.6 billion in assets and 42 banking and insurance locations throughout Renasant's Mississippi, Alabama and Tennessee markets. The merger, completed in the fall, significantly increased Renasant's deposit market share in the Birmingham and Memphis metro markets as well as the key Mississippi markets of Tupelo, Oxford and Starkville, while providing entry into the markets surrounding Jackson. Also in 2013, Renasant completed a de novo expansion into the East Tennessee markets of Jonesborough, Maryville, Bristol and Johnson City. The expansion gave the banking company 17 locations covering all three major Tennessee markets.
Renasant has 120 banking, mortgage, financial services and insurance offices in Mississippi, Tennessee, Alabama and Georgia. While Renasant looked east for much of its 2013 growth, the $13 billion BancorpSouth's announced acquisitions are in the west in Louisianan and Texas. BancorpSouth said it expects to close in the second quarter on its acquisitions of $1.3 billion First State Bank, which is headquartered in Austin, Texas, and operates 31 full-service banking offices.
BancorpSouth will acquire parent Central Community Corp.'s interest in First State Bank, Central Community Capital Trust 1, and First Central Union Capital Trust 1 in exchange for approximately 7,250,000 shares of BancorpSouth common stock plus $28.5 million in cash.
In a deal announced shortly after New Year's, BancorpSouth said it will acquire the $652 million Ouachita Bancshares Corp. and its wholly owned subsidiary, Ouachita Independent Bank headquartered in Monroe, La. Ouachita Independent operates 12 full-service banking offices in Louisiana and loan production offices in Natchitoches, La., and Madison, Miss.
BancorpSouth will issue a maximum of 3,675,000 shares of BancorpSouth common stock plus $22.875 million in cash for all outstanding shares of Ouachita Bancshares Corp. capital stock.
BancorpSouth put the total value of the deal at between $99 million to $112 million.
Meanwhile, analysts at Stern Agree estimate the acquisitions will benefit BancorpSouth's EPS by 22-cents.
Based on BancorpSouth's fourth quarter results and the accretion from the Central Community acquisition, Stern Agee said it was raising BancorpSouth's EPS estimate for 2014 by 3-cents and its 2015 EPS by 12-cents.
The analysts estimated the Ouachita Bancshares acquisition will give BancorpSouth a 10-cents annual benefit to EPS, assuming 30 percent savings and a 4 percent mark on the loan portfolio. With the acquisition, BancorpSouth's EPS estimate from Stern Agee rose by cents for this year and 10 cents for 2015. BancorpSouth has 292 commercial banking, mortgage and insurance locations in Alabama, Arkansas, Florida, Louisiana, Mississippi, Missouri, Tennessee and Texas, including an insurance location in Illinois.
