It may be hot, but don't let the dog or the kids swim in Hamilton's Lake Rotoroa.
The warning comes after a sample test by NIWA confirmed algae which can be toxic has reappeared in the lake.
Hamilton City Council's parks and open spaces manager Sally Sheedy said further tests would be done as the sample exceeded safe measurements.
''In the meantime, members of the public are advised to keep out of the water, and parents should not allow their children near the lake's edge,'' Miss Sheedy said.
''Dog owners should also keep their animals away from the water, and fish from the lake should not be eaten.''
Dogs exposed to the water should be taken to a vet as soon as possible, and people who come into contact with ''visible scums and areas of discoloured and turbid water'' should remove wet clothes and hose the area down.

I am about to purchase Windows 8 Pro Upgrade through Microsoft upgrade advisor program. I know how to do a clean install with that, but my concern is a whole new system.
I will be installing it on my current system, but I will likely be buying a new system soon. Can I use that same product key with this new system? How does one accomplish that?
Anything else I should know?
Posted 18 November 2012 - 22:57
Posted 19 November 2012 - 00:11
If I understood you correctly, you can install the key to a new system, once the old system is wiped?
But then you said, the new system needs an OS on it?
Posted 19 November 2012 - 01:47
Posted 19 November 2012 - 04:43
you should go and actually read the EULA for the Upgrade version. the System Builder one allows you to transfer machines I'm not sure how it'd work with the upgrade version, since technically once you upgrade the old OS's licence key is replaced by the new one and isn't "valid" anymore..

On Saturdays I walk the dog, then head out to my parents' house to make lunch for everybody. Today we had baked haddock with onion and mushrooms, soybeans, applesauce, and a salad. Normally I drive myself, but their driveway is still sheer ice, and dad had to go to the grocery store anyways, so he picked us up in his 4wd truck, which can make it up the driveway with only a little slipping and sliding. After lunch I do the dishes, then head home. This afternoon I went for a long bike ride, did some yoga and danced around like a crazy fool. I also took Cooper out for his second walk of the day. I will take him out for his third and final walk in just a few minutes.
I am meeting Jeremy at the gym early tomorrow morning for another kickbutt workout. I can't get to the gym on Monday, but I think I can make it on Tuesday after I walk Cooper in the morning. When we meet for our early morning workouts Cooper has to wait for his morning walk until I get home, but it doesn't seem to faze him any. He is such a flexible dog! I really lucked out when I adopted him.
Went to the gym early today to workout with my brother. Two hour workout, came home, ate breakfast, and waited for my niece to show up to go walking. When she was 15 minutes late I gave up and called... and she was still asleep. Good thing I called. It was icy, so instead of our usual 6.5 miles we made do with 2.6 miles. Sidewalks were very slippery today. Did you know that ice is slippery? It is seems to be a continual surprise to me. LOL! When Cooper and I got home I had a little lunch (bowl of soup and chips), then read for half an hour before deciding to go pick up my mother. As I was headed out the door my dad called to let me know their driveway was completely iced, and he had already rescued two people off it with his tractor when their cars slid off. His suggestion was for me to park at the bottom, and he would drive mom down in his 4wd truck. Sounded like a good idea to me. I took my cell phone with me and called when I got there and dad drove mom down, we made an exchange... my dog for mom. I won't leave Cooper in his crate for more than 4 hours, and we were sure to be gone longer than 4 hours, so dad agreed to dogsit. Cooper and dad seem to enjoy each other's company so it works pretty well.
So, I drove mom to Jamestown and sat and read most of a paperback while she was busy at the courthouse doing a mediation. I did take the stairs in the parking garage, rather than the elevator, but that was about the extent of my afternoon exercise. Good thing I got in so much exercise in the morning. The drive was quick and mostly painless. We did see one near accident in Jamestown, but other than that and some tailgating on the way home (yes, I will drive the speed limit, if you want to go over the speed limit feel free to pass me!) it was pretty uneventful. We had to meet dad at the bottom of the driveway once again and transfer the groceries and mom to the truck and the dog to the car. I got home around 7pm. Decided to do some yoga and some crazy dancing. Had some supper. I made the mistake of buying mint oreos at the grocery store. Ah well, I can ration them (I think I can anyways).
I will get on the bike, rower, or elliptical in a little while. (Probably the bike so I can read while I exercise.) Jeremy and I made another gym appointment for Sunday morning. I am so encouraged that he seems to be getting into this exercise thing. He said he is losing weight so far this Winter instead of gaining, which is not the usual pattern for him. I, on the other hand, have gained a couple of pounds. I know it is diet, because I can't do much more exercise than I have been. I have said it before, but I need to eat more for breakfast. I have slipped back into the habit of just grabbing a banana, and calling that breakfast. I think I need something more substantial like oatmeal. I like oatmeal, I could even learn to enjoy it in the morning. I am not functional enough in the morning to cook anything more complicated, but I could probably manage oatmeal or cream of wheat. Anyway, I think if I ate more at breakfast I would eat lighter the rest of the day. And I find that if I eat breakfast I have fewer cravings for junk food in the evening.
It is almost time for my next fitness assessment at the gym. I will be interested to see if my body fat % has gone down, even though my weight has not gone down.
Anyways... long day for me. (And I forgot to make coffee this morning, so I am currently completely uncaffeinated. ) I am going to go eat a sweet potato then hop on the bike and pedal and read, then maybe do the bedtime yoga and call it a day.
I went to Trivia Night tonight, and once again our team won. The food tastes better when we win. LOL! We still haven't achieved a perfect score, but we try. It is an interesting group of people.
Took it a little easier today, but I am meeting my brother at the gym early in the morning, then walking the dog with my niece at 10am, then running out to my parents' house to pick up my mother to take her to Jamestown so she can do a mediation. Afterwards we will go to the grocery store, before heading home to pick up Cooper. I imagine tomorrow will be a busy day. I have trouble with food tracking on busy days like that. I often forget to add what I have eaten while running around. And my food choices tend to be a bit odd, as it is hit or miss.
Early morning to meet my brother at the gym before he had to go to work. Decent workout. Ran 4.4 miles in 46 minutes on the treadmill, and did all my normal weights, including the squats on the leg press machine. It seems that right now 220 pounds is my maximum weight for the leg press. The only problem with going on a weekday morning is that it is more crowded and sometimes I actually have to wait for machines. I guess I have gotten spoiled from going during their off-peak hours. After we went out for breakfast. We went to our favorite restaurant and I just got a bowl of steel cut oatmeal with raisins. They serve it with brown sugar on the side, so I can add it or not, depending on my mood. I ate a banana before leaving for the gym, so I wouldn't drop my blood sugar to low working out. And we drank a lot of water with breakfast. I mean a LOT! We asked the waitress to just bring a pitcher, and she had to refill the pitcher 3 times!
I walked home from the gym and freed Cooper from his crate and took him for a walk in the snow. Then after that my neighbor wanted to try out the same restaurant, so guess where I had lunch? Yep, at the same place I had breakfast. LOL I guess I am kind of predictable. After lunch, which was a simple chicken pita wrap with tzatziki sauce, tomato, lettuce, and a sprinkle of feta, I finally finished my Christmas shopping. I had two people I had forgotten... and had no luck deciding what to get... but I made a decision and finished up. I had wanted to be done by Thanksgiving, but then I remembered a few people... so I had to think about what to get. I only have one present wrapped though. I always seem to put off wrapping presents until the last minute.
When we got back from lunch and shopping I once again freed Cooper, then hopped on the bike for an hour, before heading back out into the snow for Cooper's afternoon walk. He really doesn't seem to mind snow. It is just rain he can't stand. When we came back in I did another yoga routine from one of my yoga DVDs. I usually end up laughing at myself when I do yoga. I think I look like an epileptic stork. Of course I don't have a mirror, so I might possibly be exaggerating... maybe.
Since I am already over 22 miles tracked already today I think I might just take it easy this evening. I have a book to read and a cuddly dog to snuggle with in the recliner. Reading is much easier since I got a new floor lamp. Gee, it is amazing what illuminating the pages can do for reading speed. LOL!
It was a good day to take things a little easier with the weather so damp and dreary, though I did get out for a run in between showers. We did our usual three dog walks, a little ST and yoga and that run. That was enough for me today. I am getting up early in the morning to meet my brother at the gym.
My niece calls this weather cumulo-yuckis. Not quite cold enough for snow, but too cold for comfort, and the clouds are low and looming. It was a good day to sit and read... all curled up with the dog.

Sir, – The outcome of the new pact between Kadima and the Likud ("Netanyahu,
Mofaz surprise nation by forming largest coalition in 28 years," May 9) has
produced three winners.Winner number one is the citizens of Israel. We
have been spared the expense and aggravation of an early election. We are going
to receive a revision of the Tal Law, which will finally bring about equality
with regard to army service, plus a change in the electoral system, which has
been so elusive.Winner number two is Binyamin Netanyahu, who has proved
himself to be the political fox of foxes. The prime minister has the strength
and cunning to lead us at a time when Israel has a list of problems that would
stagger an ordinary man.Winner number three is Shaul Mofaz, whose Kadima
party stood on the edge of being obliterated. He has given Kadima new life. He
has done more for his party and the country in two short weeks than his
predecessor, Tzipi Livni, did in years.PAUL BERMAN Shoham Sir, – In his
otherwise perceptive analysis "Winners & Losers: Good for Barak, bad for
Barack" (May 9), Gil Hoffman misses the boat by saying that neither Prime
Minister Netanyahu nor Kadima leader Shaul Mofaz belongs among the
winners.Regarding Netanyahu, while his prime ministership is not
affected, his deft stroke outflanked the incipient rebels in the Likud ranks
(who had virtually humiliated him in the previous evening's maneuvering over the
planned Likud convention chairmanship) and showed them that he is definitely
still the boss.As for Mofaz, the Israeli voter will forget and/or
forgive his zigzagging if his new, elevated position facilitates growth in his
stature as a national – as opposed to factional – leader.JAC FRIEDGUT
Jerusalem Sir, – I, for one, would prefer new elections rather than taking
Kadima into the government.This is not what the people voted
for.It is time the people were listened to.MADALYN SCHAEFFER
Jerusalem Sir, – Your front-page article "Netanyahu, Mofaz surprise nation by
forming largest coalition in 28 years" stated: "Contact on forming the unity
government began at a low level while Netanyahu was sitting shiva for his
father, Prof. Benzion Netanyahu." That was not the most sensitive way of
describing events.Prof. Netanyahu wrote in the preface to the first
edition of his book, Don Isaac Abravanel: "This volume deals with times and
views which may appear not only remote and foreign, but also bizarre to a modern
reader."The political shenanigans of the last few days certainly appear
bizarre to this modern reader.RICHARD RINBERG Ra'anana Sir, – The sour
grapes that Labor Party leader Shelly Yacimovich is exhibiting are
understandable ("Shocked Yacimovich calls coalition deal 'embodiment of
political evil,'" May 9).Here she thought she was on a sure winning
streak, and behold, the ground is cut away from under her. However, "embodiment
of evil" is misplaced.She is probably not old enough to remember Shimon
Peres's "stinking ploy" when he tried to outflank Yitzhak Rabin in the Knesset,
and Rabin's own ploy, when he bribed MKs Alex Goldfarb and Gonen Segev to
abandon those who voted for them, and thus pushed through the infamous Oslo
Accords by a vote of 61 to 59.Both of these ploys were in truth the
embodiment of evil, for which we are paying today.And both were executed
by Yacimovich's own Labor Party.CYRIL ATKINS Beit Shemesh Sir, – I must
say that the only voice I hear and believe is that of Shelly
Yacimovich.This latest move is truly a shocker. We can only hope that
the new coalition will be true to its leaders' promise to promote a new Tal Law,
for that is the only good thing that might come out of this political
"evil."Should Prime Minister Netanyahu and Kadima leader Shaul Mofaz
make good on this promise, all the rest can be forgiven.LEONARD ZURAKOV
Netanya Sir, – Regarding "Lapid: Kadima is back 'home'" (May 9), Yair Lapid also
called the unity coalition "the old politics, dim and ugly."He is right
about that. Mofaz is dim, and Netanyahu plays ugly.ISRAEL PICKHOLTZ
Jerusalem Sir, – In the wake of a pledge by Prime Minister Netanyahu and Kadima
leader Shaul Mofaz to "advance electoral reform," your editorial "Reform time"
(May 9) gave me an idea.Since no one wants to give up his Knesset seat,
the best way to create proper electoral representation is to double the number
of seats, with half reserved for regional representation.The current
lack of direct representation makes for a feeling of detachment from the state
we live in.BARRY LYNN Efrat Sir, – Caroline B. Glick ("First thoughts on
a unity government," Comment & Features, May 9) feels that "all in all this
is a great day for Netanyahu."Regarding the prime minister's "refusal to
commit seriously to any binding position on the Palestinians," in theory that is
exactly what he does every time he opens his mouth to beg the intransigent
terrorist-ina- suit Mahmoud Abbas to come back to the negotiating
table.Netanyahu built his present power due to the weakness and failure
of the rightists in the government to stand up to his left-wing policies, which
were shown when he made the antisettler Ehud Barak defense minister.The
columnist also hopes that Netanyahu "won't use his new strength to destroy his
political party as Sharon did before him.No previous action on
Netanyahu's part lends to that conclusion."Wake up, Glick. What do you
think he was doing when he publicly accepted, completely against the ideology of
the Likud, the legitimacy of a Palestinian state within our land, using a
gimmick he knew could never be kept – that the state be demilitarized? What
about his continuous offer of painful concessions, starting with the eviction of
hundreds of thousands of Jews from their homes in Judea and Samaria, the
previously unheard-of moratorium on Jewish building there, the removal of
essential security barriers and allowing the constant humiliation of Jews trying
to pray at their holy sites? The list is endless.Glick, like many
others, unfortunately is unable to accept Netanyahu's calculated move to the
Left, away from any rightwing ideology he may have toyed with in the
past.EDITH OGNALL Netanya Sir, – On May 8 you ran a Reuters report
headlined "Dinosaur flatulence may have warmed Earth, say scientists."In
light of the recent political developments in Israel and the hot air expended
over the past few days, I assume we can expect a really hot summer.ALAN
(SHLOMO) KOOR Petah Tikva CLARIFICATIONS • The article "Hebrew U discovery
reshapes understanding of First Temple" (May 9) neglected to give credit to
Israel Antiquities Authority archaeologist Saar Ganor. Ganor is codirector of
the excavation site of Khirbet Qeiyafa with Hebrew University of Jerusalem
professor Yosef Garfinkel.• Reader Michael Quastel (Tomatoes, migrants,"
Letters, May 9) was referring to Jay Bushinsky's column "Integrate the Africans
in Israel!" (Observations, April 27), and not as stated. The letters editor
apologizes for the editing error.

We often come across thoughtful things that Canadians do, on this boardwalk we come across little huts – like large letterboxes, by a park bench, that hold used books, you can read a used book/magazine and replace with another used book/magazine, the local library started this innovative idea – a great idea.
On our way back to Pacific Shores we come across two local deer, we kept seeing warning signs everywhere and were watching for them ...
Off to "the island" :)
... here for over 2 hours and watched another couple of boats come through - including one small tug that didn't look like he was going to make it. The sea lions stayed around the whole time, popping up here & there playing in the water. They're such graceful creatures & just mesmerising to watch. We were standing out on the rocks when an otter surfaced and climbed up the rocks. He was just sitting there until Ben moved closer with the camera, then he must've freaked out ...
To begin....
... a chance, and decided to follow my dreams... even if it took me half way across the world.
You are what keeps me going every day. You make it all worth it. And I wouldn't be anywhere without you. So thank you, from the bottom of my heart.
I am so proud to be Canadian. I am so proud to be from Nanaimo. And I am so proud to be a Durvin.
Until we meet again,
Travel Day!
You would think that, like most sensible people, I would try and get a good night's sleep before travel day. But nobody's ever accused me of being sensible. So naturally the night before I'm due to leave I decide it would probably be a good idea if I start packing. Luckily, I have an amazing mom that stayed up and helped me pack. Well, lets be honest... she basically did the packing for me. My sister stayed up with us and we watched Vampire Diaries ...
Long Beach, Tofino and the middle of nowhere
... which I guess is really what people are talking about when they refer to Tofino as being breathtaking. It was still pretty early in the morning and a bit cool out so we were almost completely alone on the beach. The tide was out a bit and the sun was shining. We walked along the damp sand, watching the birds wade in the tide pools and the surfers ride the rolling white-edged waves.
We came across a very large rock on the beach and next to it was ...

I used to say a movie I hated was the worst one I've ever seen, only to be surprised by something even worse.
Ultimately that also made me feel like I wasted my time if the directors were too lazy to even finish off their bad movie properly.
Nicole Kidman is entrusted with renovating their mansion while fast-talking diamond salesman Nicolas Cage is often away.

Laura Leighton moving back to 'Melrose Place'
She will reprise her role as the irresponsible and scheming Sydney Andrews, one of the most popular characters on the Fox series.
In the dramatic fifth-season finale of "Melrose Place" in 1997 – and Leighton's last episode on the show -- Sydney was run over by a car on her wedding day in a near-fatal accident.
While she was presumed dead for the rest of the Fox series, she now is back at Melrose Place, and while the script is being kept under wraps, sources said she would be the landlord to the new crop of tenants.
Leighton's casting on CW's "Melrose" is reminiscent of the CW's tapping of "Beverly Hills, 90210" alumna Jennie Garth to reprise her role on the new "90210."
Leighton's two-episode stint on the original "Melrose Place" in 1993 was her first acting gig. It led to a full job on the series for four years.
On "Melrose," Leighton also met her husband, co-star Doug Savant, now on ABC's "Desperate Housewives."
After finishing her contract on "Melrose Place," Leighton recurred on "Beverly Hills" alongside Garth.
Leighton, who next stars in Hallmark Channel's movie "The View From Here," is repped by APA and Untitled.

Money doesn't grow on trees… wait, it sort of does, because it's paper, which is from trees, and… right? I'm not overlooking some basic step of production here, or that there's a new treeless paper out there? God, I know so little about how the world actually works, like how does a telephone work or a car engine or a faucet or—okay, I just looked it up, and so-called "paper" money is actually a combination of cotton and linen fibers. So it doesn't grow on trees, it grows from the ground. That's where cotton and linen come from, I'm pretty sure.

NORMAN — A United Methodist church is reaching out to the community through a series of videos produced with help from University of Oklahoma students.
St. Stephen's United Methodist Church in Norman reaches out through video project
St. Stephen's United Methodist Church, 1801 W Brooks, produced 10 videos as part of its "It Gets Better" project.
The Rev. Amy Venable, the church's pastor, said the videos, launched in May, are designed to combat bullying and to help promote the church's Reconciling Ministry, which welcomes the gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgender community.
She said the idea came from church member Jason Martin, co-chair of the church's Reconciling Ministries Committee, after a spate of suicides gained local and national attention.
"It was the season of all these unfortunate suicides," Venable said.
She said on the local level, Martin and other church members were alarmed at the suicide of a Norman man after a contentious October 2010 Norman City Council meeting in which community members spoke out against a proposal to recognize October as Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual and Transgender History Month in Norman.
On a national level, Venable said church members also were troubled when Rutgers University student Tyler Clementi committed suicide in September 2010 after his college roommate posted online a webcam video of Clementi kissing another man.
Venable, 39, said the church's "It Gets Better" videos are one way the church can tell the surrounding community that it is an open and affirming church that welcomes all people regardless of sexual orientation.
"We are first and foremost a United Methodist church but we also realize that if we didn't say out loud that we welcome GLBT then they wouldn't know that they are welcome," she said.
The church received an award for the video project in May.
The project was recognized as the best lay-led ministry project from the United Methodist Church South Oklahoma City District at a luncheon in Tulsa held in conjunction with the Oklahoma United Methodist Conference's annual meeting.
Testimony outreach
Each of the videos features either an individual or a couple sharing their thoughts about the many ways St. Stephen's welcomes all people.
Martin's video in particular is eye-opening because he shares his testimony as a gay man who found a warm and inviting church family at St. Stephen's.
Martin, 37, said he wanted the church's video series to be part of the national "It Gets Better" video movement that began in 2010 in response to bullying against lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender young people and adults. He said the goal of the movement is to share with bullying victims that they are not alone and "life does get better."

Contractors know that lobbying money multiplies to the bottom line.
It usually is an investment with a great ROI, when it works out.
Just look at the K-Street people in Washington, 5 times the number of members of Congress. Everybody makes money of the millions spread around.

TORONTO — Three monstrous weather punches — hurricane Sandy from the Caribbean, a winter storm from the west and a torrent of Arctic air from the north — are expected to collide along the U.S. east coast early next week, and there's a chance southern Ontario could be caught by the whiplash.
U.S. forecasters are calling it a "Frankenstorm:" an unholy mixture of gale-force winds, heavy rain, flooding and snow, starting Sunday and stretching past Halloween on Wednesday. Forecasters are expecting that the three weather systems will collide and park over New York and New Jersey, but will have impacts that reach west of Ohio, north into Ontario and east to the New England states and the Canadian Maritimes.
The Canadian Hurricane Centre issued a warning Thursday for southern Ontario, southern Quebec and the Maritimes, saying that after hurricane Sandy moves through the Bahamas Thursday and past Florida on Friday with winds in excess of 140 kilometres, the hurricane is expected to track northward through the weekend and early next week. The centre is holding a special weather briefing Friday.
Environment Canada climatologist Dave Phillips said it's still too early to predict Sandy's course, and suggested southern Ontario might not see its impacts until later in the week: "It won't be into Canadian waters until, at the earliest next Wednesday, so we won't pick it up until towards the weekend."
Having said that, Ontario's trick-or-treaters could be in for a "Hallo-wet."
"Right now, the lead up to Halloween doesn't look that great," Phillips said. "Next week should be kind of cool and wet, but not snowy. You might have to wear a poncho over your costume, but not a parka or tuque."
If anything, hurricane Sandy will refuel the wet weather predicted for most of next week, but that wet weather, mixed with Arctic air, could make real trouble for the Halloween "spooks" in New York and Maryland, according to the U.S. forecasters. Their weather models say there is a 70 per cent chance the snow will hit the Northeast and mid-Atlantic regions around Halloween.
The looming storm has been compared to the infamous Perfect Storm of 1991, which also took place around Halloween and spawned both a book and a movie.
But this one could be worse. Some meteorologists say the combination of a tropical storm and icy conditions could equal chaos.
"The Perfect Storm only did $200 million of damage and I'm thinking a billion," said Jeff Masters, meteorology director of the private service Weather Underground. "Yeah, it will be worse."
"The guys in the government are calling it 'Frankenstorm'" because it is a combination of several weather systems, said Tom Downs, a forecaster at Weather 2000 Inc. in New York. "It is safe to say that there will be millions of dollars in damage."
"It's almost a weeklong, five-day, six-day event," National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration forecaster Jim Cisco said Thursday from his northern storm forecast centre near Washington.. "It's going to be a widespread serious storm."
With every hour, meteorologists are getting more confident that this storm is going to be bad and they are able to focus their forecasts more.
Both private and federal meteorologists are calling this a storm that will likely go down in the history books.
"We don't have many modern precedents for what the models are suggesting," Cisco said.
It is likely to hit during a full moon when tides are near their highest, increasing coastal flooding potential, Cisco's agency warns. And with some trees still leafy and the potential for snow, power outages could last to the Nov. 6 Election Day, some American meteorologists fear.
Meanwhile, cleanup crews were grappling Thursday with the effects of just one component of the predicted superstorm. Jamaican work crews cleared debris and downed power lines left in hurricane Sandy's wake while trying to restore electricity to more than half of the country. People in hard-hit shantytowns struggled to repair battered homes after sheet metal roofs blew off.
In Jamaica, about 70 per cent of the island lost power during the storm and many towns and cities were left without water service. Schools in the capital of Kingston and eastern parishes were closed until next week.
In Haiti's capital of Port-au-Prince, where many people still live in tents and other temporary shelters since losing their homes in the country's devastating 2010 earthquake, entire streets gave way to rushing waters. Many people carried belongings on their heads and in suitcases.
As hurricane Sandy continued to move north, it began to pick up speed Thursday, confounding earlier projections about its path. It was expected to strike the Bahamas on Friday, but had reached the southern Bahamas by Thursday afternoon. Late Thursday, the hurricane was about 420 kilometres east of Florida and heading north.

This study extends the theoretical framework of Callen and Segal (2004) and Vuolteenaho (2002) to investigate the association between accrual variability and firm-level stock return volatility. The empirical evidence supports our prediction that increased uncertainty in current-period accounting accruals is associated with significantly higher volatility of future stock returns, and the results are valid for measures of both systematic and idiosyncratic volatility. When accrual variability is decomposed into fundamental and discretionary portions, we find that the positive relationship between accrual variability and future stock return volatility is dominated by the fundamental component of accrual variability. Overall, our results suggest that uncertainty reflected in accrual information is subsequently reflected in the fluctuation of future stock returns, and that the predictive content in accruals primarily reflects firms' fundamental uncertainty, rather than any effects of managerial choices and interventions in the accounting process.

Jansen, Wim, and Xiaogang Wu. 2011. "Income Inequality in Urban China, 1978-2005." PSC Research Report No. 11-736. April 2011.
The aims of this paper are twofold: (1) identifying the "winners" and "losers" in China's economic transition via regression analyses on income using repeated cross-sectional data at individual levels over the entire period of economic reform, and (2) linking the "winners" and "losers" categories to the income inequality at the aggregate level by decomposing the trend in overall income inequality with respect to some key characteristics of these categories. Based on individual level analyses of 11 waves of survey data collected in urban China from 1978 to 2005, we found that (1) returns to schooling have been increasing over time; (2) returns to party membership did increase, but when distinguishing between ordinary party members and cadre members, the increase in income returns to ordinary members seemed to be non-substantive and there is no temporal trend in returns to cadre members; (3) workers in the private sector and the self-employed (getihu) are –looking at the entire period 1978 – 2005- among the "losers" of the economic transition; (4) the unemployed, although profiting from the transition during the first half of the 80s, also turned out to be among the "losers"; and (5) the employers in the private sector were among the "winners". Results from the decomposition analyses showed similar effects on China's overall income inequality A link between the "winners" and "losers" on the micro-level and changes in the explained income inequality at the macro-level could be established.
