The first week of December will probably be remembered as "that time the ECB thought rates weren't negative enough and decided to drop them by another 15 bps ". However, the central bank did more than just lower the rates:
- QE was extended until such time as the ECB sees fit
- A lot of confusion seems to have been generated about the ANSA.
- some details were provided about Greek coverage by QE, and
- Geopolitical risks were acknowledged.
The decisions were not unanimous but there was an overwhelming majority in support. This post reviews what I (arbitrarily) consider the most important points.
The Deposit Rate Cut
First of all, the ECB lowered only one of the rates, out of a total of three rates it controls in its standard operations. The rate being lowered was the deposit facility rate, ie the return that the ECB offers on overnight deposits. An alternative way to think about it is that the ECB just increased the cost that banks pay for sitting on their cash rather than lending it to each other or the real economy.
Meanwhile, the cost of borrowing from the ECB has remained stable at 0.3% for a 1 week repo with (the ECB) (MRO) and 0.5% for an overnight loan (Marginal lending facility). Any lower than this and the ECB will start paying banks to take its cash.
Extending & reinvesting principal payments from APP and Buying sub-national debt under the PSPP
The ECB took three additional decisions regarding the coverage of its QE programme:
- To extend the Asset Purchasing Programme (APP = ABSPP + CBPP3 + PSPP) by at least 5 months from the original deadline of September 2016 to March 2017.
- To reinvest principal payments from the APP indefinitely, thus extending QE indefinitely.
- Finally, the ECB has also decided to extend its public sector purchasing programme to cover subnational government markets, including municipal and state/region/provincial debt.
ECB Logic: If a little is good, more is better
On the surface, these decisions were motivated by the fact that euro-zone inflation is 0.1% in November, so 190bps short of the 2% target and 90bps away from the 1% forecasted for the end of 2016. At the same time, money growth is being driven by base money, which suggests that banks are not lending enough money.
However, Draghi argued that an ECB negative rate with QE is working, and that the reason that the deposit facility rates were further lowered is because the policy is not working fast enough.
The logic that the policy is working is motivated by encouraging quarterly growth figures for consumption
"The growth rates in this year have been 0.5%, 0.4% and 0.3% over the last three quarters."
… and increases in inflation…
" our policies have been effective also on the inflation front, because (…) the correlation between our inflation expectations measures and the current inflation or the oil prices has decreased or has just disappeared. "
Causes of Financial Success
The success of QE has been obvious in financial markets. According to Draghi, QE exceeded the ECB's expectations because it was planned prior to the deterioration of conditions in emerging markets and the collapse in the price of oil, both of which supposedly drove investors to fixed income markets, I presume.
Causes of real Failure
I suppose the most common explanation for the lack of real economic growth is lag. Logic argues that the transmission of monetary policy from financial markets to the real economy, orthodox or otherwise, takes time, particularly after a crisis. Banks need to fail and those that survive need to fix their balance sheets.
Given the nature of the EZ crisis, stress testing is too political to be accurate. When this exercise has been conducted in te EZ a lot the scenarios tended not to stress the sovereign too much because more severe ones may have undermined the market's perception of ECB confidence of EZ sovereigns. As a result, it's very likely we still have a lot of zombie banks dragging their financial carcass around and slowing down the rest of the herd.
Ultimately, as long as the balance sheet of MFIs is stagnant, I doubt that there will be proper growth.
(Variable: "total assets/liabilities"; Red curve total stocks; blue line is Year-on-Year change %)
Particularly when the balance sheet total is so correlated with loans to non-financial MFIs (corporates).
(Variable: "Loans, Total, Outstanding amounts at the end of the period (stocks), Euro area (changing composition), Non-MFIs excluding general government, Euro"; Red curve total stocks; blue line is Year-on-Year change %)
Interestingly however, the ECB's take (on this occasion), was that
"There are many factors that affected the core inflation projections as we had it since January 2015. The most important ones I've just mentioned: it's the oil prices, and the situation in the emerging market economies. What we've done since then is to create very favourable financial and credit market conditions so that firms and households, even though burdened by these external factors, could find credit easier to access and more abundant."(emphasis added)
This is interesting because I don't really see firms and households as being "burdened" by these factors, certainly not in a way that significantly impacts inflation negatively. To my knowledge, and I could clearly be missing something here, there's one channel through which nflation could be held back by the appreciation of the Euro via-à-vis emerging market currencies: purchasing-power parity (PPP). However, that would require some pretty extreme facts.
Remembering that PPP suggests that a currency appreciation leads to a less that proportional decrease in inflation, or more popularly that a depreciation causes an increase in inflation, and that this exchange rate pass-through occurs through imports, my understanding is that the inflation decreasing effects of the Euro vis-à-vis the Brazilian real (BRL)…
… and the SouthAfrican Rand (ZAR).
Had a more powerful lowered the cost of our collective consumption so much that it was not only noticeable but also, it was able to completely overwhelm the the fact that the Euro depreciated against the US dollar (USD)…
Now that seems unlikely given the relative import weights of these countries, according to the WTO (this is the report for the EU28, there is no report for the EZ):
Moreover, export demand may have fallen due to a slow down from emerging market demand, but low oil prices (assuming you are not an oil producing/extracting/refining fifm) should be a supply side boon, increasing output, even as inflation falls.
So what are the facts for the EZ? – what is actually going? Well, the economy is doing precisely what I just described.
GDP grew at 1.6% in October 2015…
… and unemployment continued falling and reached 10.74%.
So low inflation is not that bad. It's what you'd expect under these circumstances. The problem is two other things:
1 – On the one hand, we'd probably like to the EZ be growing faster, given how much growth collapsed in the previous years
2 – On the other hand, we'd probably like the growth to be either more equally distributed or more equally redistributed. As it stands variation has been pretty wide.
Inflation is really low, and I think that Draghi is exaggerating recent shifts. Inflation has not gone above 0.3% since October 2015 and spent 5 of the last 12 months in negative territory.
What we have has all the traits of supply-led growth. Despite forecasts and consumption signals I continue to doubt the ability of QE to facilitate a demand-led growth while government austerity holds back actual demand growth (C+I+G), even as I understand that the ECB is tied by its rules and the absence of a federal fiscal counterpart. This is not to say that QE has not helped. It's been definitely supportive and the ECB should keep it coming.
Of course inflation will go up eventually, but it will take time and will probably depend on oil price movements. However, what that means is that inflation may grow at the detriment of GDP, in which case the ECB may have to do more.
The way forward
My expectation is that inflation will remain subdued means the ECB is likely to continue to reinforce its policy. How so? By reinvesting not just principal repayments but also interest payments from the APP. Once oil prices rise, the potential slow-down in GDP may also force the ECB to extend QE.
There's not much falling left for oil to do before it can only go up, or settle where it is for a while
(I would argue that it's important to remember that OPEC upped oil output in order to price US fracking out of the market and that, short of a proper war in the Middle East (involving any two of Israel and Egypt, Iran or Saudi Arabia), this concern is not going anywhere, ISIS or not).
But of course I could be wrong…

Yes, you read the title correct. This is not officially supported. Here is what I experienced:
- Mount the CDrom > vcsa-ui-installer > mac > Installer
- I completed steps 1 through 5
- I can across this error on step 6
Based on the message, I thought I might have downloaded a corrupt OVA file, however the MD5 checksum on the file was correct. I clicked the "Show all" button:
OK, the issue looks like you need to install the ovftool. I will skip to the good part, there no need to install ovftool manually. Next I check the Installer log, when I hovered over the link i saw this message:
If you click on the red bang to the left of Installer log you can download the log file:
I opened the log file and found the following error:
2016–11–16T23:54:19.360Z – error: could not find ovftool Cmd: /private/var/folders/68//T/AppTranslocation/vcsa/ovftool/mac/ovftool
2016–11–16T23:54:19.360Z – info: ovftoolCmd: null
2016–11–16T23:54:19.360Z – error: OVF probe error: Error: ovftool is not available
I expected the installer to look for ovftool in the /Applications directory, but instead it was a private path. I checked the directory:
Interesting enough the vcsa directory did not exist. I decided I needed to create the missing directories and copy the ovftool from the CD into that directory.
I restart the installer again and got a different error.
The installer log, confirmed the issue:
2016–11–16T18:25:05.769Z – error: Could not find ovaFile /^VMware–vCenter–Server–Appliance–.*_OVF10.ova$/ in /private/var/folders/68/_76kyyfs18l4gd4qrj1hvtp80000gn/T/AppTranslocation/vcsa
2016–11–16T18:25:05.769Z – info: ovaFile: null
2016–11–16T18:25:05.770Z – error: OVF probe error: Error: OVA file is not available
This lead me back to the VCSA ISO and the directory structure:
The vcsa directory in the VCSA ISO contains both ovftool and the OVA. I copied over the OVA and the installer worked as expected. So long story short, you need to manually copy the vcsa directory in the VCSA ISO to the private path in the installer log to make the MacOS installer work on Sierra

It is often said politics is war by other means.
Premier Frank Coleman is expressing his concerns about how nasty and personal his political baptism has become. It must be very difficult to transition from a relatively cloistered life to having your every personal conviction and business dealing challenged in public forums. While I sympathize with him, the scrutiny comes with taking on the province's top job in politics.
From my perspective, he is the victim of his own communication missteps which have spiraled out of control blowing into full-fledged scandals. When a public figure is slow to respond or they are considered to be disingenuous, the result is like putting blood in the water. The sharks in the opposition and the media are drawn to the scent.
I recall being a young reporter in Stephenville when Clyde Wells became leader of the Liberal Party of Newfoundland and Labrador. The governing tories saw him as a threat. The leader was touring the province, bringing a decade and a half of organizational chaos in the Liberal Party to an end and offering policy alternatives to the Peckford regime.
The governing Tories attempted to focus on Wells himself. There was questions in the media, the open lines and a whisper campaign to discredit him. His successful career as a lawyer was questioned. Did Wells not represent criminals? Did he not work for the Canadian Government on contentious files like the offshore reference? They questioned a salary supplement that he was provided by a group of Liberal supporters.
Character assassination was the name of the game. Wells was a threat to the status quo. He was not any where near the levers of power but his every pronouncement and past career was put under intense scrutiny.
Fast forward to the current situation where a political neophyte has been acclaimed as leader of the governing party after a messy leadership shrouded in controversy and allegations of manipulation. The media and the public want to know what he stands for today and what he has stood for in the past. He is going to be the Premier.
Frank Coleman has been defined as being on the side of corporations
and special interests. Fairly, or unfairly, perception is reality. The
way we perceive something makes it OUR reality. That is how politics
works. What the public perceives to be true is important, not if
something is
actually true. If a politician is perceived to be honest or dishonest
that is "reality"
His job, or the job of his advisers, is to paint him as a visionary with a successful business record and progressive social background. The failure to communicate falls on his team and the piss poor approach to renewal that was a flawed leadership process. A reactive approach engaged in perpetual damage control has not served him, or his party well. You may or may not have control over the issues at play but you can certainly take control of how to respond to them.
Politics is nasty, it is personal. Managing perceptions is something politicians can not escape.
If people think a bank is financially shaky they pull their money out and
pretty soon it is financially shaky. The same applies to political

Last week was a momentous one for Sentinel staff with the announcement of the impending move to the city centre and the departure of our Editor-in-Chief.
We had known about both decisions for some time and, while they were tinged with sadness, they also mark the beginning of an exciting new chapter in the newspaper's history.
They remind us that while buildings and people may change, the newspaper itself continues inexorably – constantly adapting and evolving to suit its readership and patch.
Relocating to Hanley, where The Sentinel has been based for most of its 159 years, represents a return to our spiritual home.
The move makes absolute sense as we no longer have a print works here at Etruria and, happily, it coincides with the multi-million regeneration of the city centre.
Our new home from the Autumn, the former Bethesda Sunday School, is steeped in history and we couldn't have chosen a better base for a company which has been part of the fabric of life in this neck of the woods since 1854.
Handily located next to the Cultural Quarter and the proposed Central Business District, it means shoppers and anyone working in the area can nip in for a chat with a Sentinel reporter.
We'll also only be a stone's throw away from Hanley Police Station, Hanley Community Fire Station, the crown court and our contacts at the Potteries Museum and Art Gallery, The Regent Theatre and the Vicki Hall – among others.
That's not to say that moving won't be a wrench. The Sentinel has been at Festival Park since 1987 and many of us have fond memories of colleagues, past editions and countless hours spent here at this sprawling site next to the canal where the last remnants of Josiah Wedgwood's original factory stand as a reminder of the city's proud industrial heritage.
For exactly half the 15 years yours truly has been with my home-town newspaper, the man who has just vacated the big chair has been my 'gaffer'.
I knew Mike Sassi before he arrived in North Staffordshire, having previously worked with him at the Derby Telegraph.
No two Editors are ever the same and, believe me, the appointment of the top man, or woman, is still a matter of great significance – and not just for the writers and photographers who report to them.
To my mind a newspaper, partisan or non-partisan, will always reflect the personality and passions of its Editor.
In that respect, I think we dropped lucky when Mike Sassi took over in December 2005 (I can say that without being accused of fishing for a pay rise because he's gone).
I think it's fair to say that he was at the helm during some of the most turbulent years that the newspaper industry has faced – given the economic situation and the way in which the internet has changed the game.
However, rather than retreating, Mike had us reaching out to our readership in new and innovative ways, staging major public events and forging partnerships with a variety of organisations.
The Our Heroes awards, the Class Act campaign which gave away tens of thousands of pounds to local schools, the Young Journalist Awards, and the hugely-popular Stoke's Top Talent variety competition all happened on his watch.
These weren't events intended to make us money or flog papers. Rather they were intended to cement The Sentinel at the heart of the communities it serves.
The campaigns we ran were the same: From Save Our Staffords which successfully fought to preserve the name of our local regiment with a 17,000-strong petition, through to the battle to bring the Staffordshire Hoard at the Potteries Museum and Art Gallery.
But perhaps what I will remember most about Mike's tenure was a night in December 2011 when yours truly was up to his neck in the troubles engulfing Port Vale.
It was Mike's brave decision to run with the stories exposing how supporters had been misled by the then board of directors which led to the resignation of the club's chief executive and the subsequent sacking of its chairman.
Any journalist will tell you that having the support of your Editor when the big calls are made is absolutely priceless.
Mike Sassi worked extremely hard to try to learn what makes North Staffordshire and its people tick.
He was as excited as anyone with Stoke City's appearance at Wembley and the club's adventures in Europe; Chuffed to bits with Vale's recent promotion and genuinely proud to see the Staffordshire Saxon statue unveiled at the Potteries Museum and Art Gallery.
I think our loss is genuinely the Nottingham Post's gain but, as Mike will tell you himself, any Editor is simply the custodian – the caretaker, if you will – for the brand. He'll hate this fuss but he's earned it, in my opinion, and I'd like to wish Mike all the best in his new job.
Meanwhile, the original Neverending Story that is The Sentinel continues…

I've refrained, so far, from commenting on the rape trial of Ulster and Ireland players Paddy Jackson and Stuart Olding, the matter being sub judice after all.
Now that the Not Guilty verdicts are in, however, I'm not quite sure what to make of it.
Clearly there was insufficient evidence to convict, but equally there was obviously enough to bring charges and the fact that the trial lasted eight-and-a-half weeks suggests that there was certainly a case to answer.
However you look at it, the behaviour of Jackson and Olding (and the other other men charged in connection with the incident) doesn't look great and quite rightly the players remain relieved of all duties until a review into the incident by IRFU and Ulster Rugby is concluded.

Not Guilty
2 comments:
- Peter Franklin said...
I agree, as is often the case the fact that they have been found not guilty simply means that there isn't enough evidence (beyond reasonable doubt) to convict, rather than evidence to show they are innocent. So a possibly wronged woman doesn't get the justice she deserves, or the innocent defendants will forever be tarred with the fact that they were investigated and stood trial for the charges. No winners.

I see both Ireland and Ulster have now taken the decision to terminate the two players' contracts. It will be interesting to see where they both now end up...

Formula Onzzzzzzzzzzzz.
March 6, 2011
Normally, this blog is devoted to the proper sports, that being football, boxing and occasionally, a bit of cricket. We tend to leave the world of Formula One alone, mainly because I don't class it as a proper sport (no human endeavour, beyond the technical). Another big reason that I don't talk about F1 too much is because it's about as boring as Scottish football.
This isn't about slagging Formula 1 off though, it remains mystifyingly popular and who am I to criticise it?
Actually, I know I'm being harsh on the petrol heads, because the one thing F1 is good for is a laugh. Formula One is the "actor" of the sports world, faintly ridiculous to everyone, but convinced of it's own importance. Really, who actually cares about Formula One? The drivers are all about as interesting as a Dominic Brigstocke stand up show, and the cars, while nice looking, are so imbalanced it eliminates the prospect of any actual competition on the track.
Now, to give the billionaire circus midget, Bernie Ecclestone, his due, he acknowledges that his sport is about as gripping as a thalidomide hand job, so he's come up with ways to make his sport more interesting. His latest wheeze is to propose artificial rain.
You read that right, artificial rain. Not a return to manual gearboxes and clutch pedals, nothing as prosaic as that, just artificial rain. Not a balancing of the budgets, which would give the smaller teams an equal crack at the points, but artificial rain.
The response has been predictably sniffy, Mark Webber has declared the idea to be unsophisticated and everybody else has been convulsed with laughter at the idea that in order to make the races interesting you have to fiddle about with the track and simulate rain.
I think it's a brilliant idea, but personally I don't think it goes far enough. I suggest that the tracks be replaced with a massive dodgem arena. I also think that the drivers should be made to drink half a bottle of JD before they take to the track, maybe we'll get a spectacular "Senna" moment.

Hiroshi Tada Sensei is one of the last of the early postwar generation of Aikikai instructors. He began training at the Hombu Dojo in 1950 while still a Waseda University student. Tada Sensei spent eight years instructing in Italy starting in 1964. He has also traveled extensively, especially in Europe, to teach aikido. Tada Sensei returns to Italy at frequent intervals to conduct seminars.
Following his return to Japan, Tada Sensei taught at the Hombu Dojo for a period of some 30 years, being one of the mainstays of the Aikikai instructors staff. He remains active teaching at several private dojos in the Tokyo area.
Tada Sensei has always embraced a healthy lifestyle and moves like a young man despite his age of 82 years. In this demonstration, you will see him perform at age 75. His aikido is alive with ki, and unlike any other teacher you will ever see. Careful viewing of his techniques will be an eye-opening experience for the astute student of the art.

DAILY VIBRATION & MANDALA REPORT: Friday December 11th 2015
Friday December 11th's vibration (11+12+2+0+1+5) = 31/4. Today we have a New Moon in Sagittarius, and as always, the New Moon is the time to plant your seeds of intention, and watch them grow and fulfill themselves with the waxing of the Moon to full.
4 is a grounding, manifesting vibration and represents stability, dependability and sound, rational reasoning. So, today is an excellent opportunity to get clear with yourself on what it is you really want, and write it all down, anchoring these intents to the material plane.
Looking first at the root-essence vibration of the day, 4: the number 4 creates the form of the Square, which is the ancient symbol for the element of Earth, and the Earth, our home.
4 is the manifestation vibration, the number that rules the order and form of the material world.Today, 4 gives you great organisational and planning ability, and you can create a new vision for your life with a cautiously careful, measured approach.
The 4th card in the Tarot is the Emperor, and the keyword for this card is REASON. The Emperor sits on a throne, which represents his wisdom; he has, through reasoning, become conscious of the elemental forces, which work together to form the material world, and can therefore discern the truth of any situation.
The Emperor is really the Magician, the 1st card in the Tarot, as an older, wiser man, someone who understands and has gone through the process of mastering the creative potential symbolised by the other three preceding cards. At this stage he can bring about concrete, tangible results.
In the traditional Tarot imagery, we see the Emperorer holding in his Left hand the World, and in his right, he holds the Tau, the image of the cross, which defines the 4 directions, and elements of earthly, manifest space. He is the maker of blueprints, the planner of plans, and the builder of form.
He is again reminding us that we will reap what we sow, and that if we become more conscious of our thoughts, we will see that they truly determine and define our tangible reality. The first 4 cards of the Tarot represent the journey from idea to form.
Upon the Emperor's throne we see 4 ram's heads, an obvious link to the Emperor's ruling astrological energy of Aries, the ram, and to Mars, Aries ruling planet. Mars, Aries and the ram express energies of action, determination, initiative, and leadership.
Aries is the first sign of the Zodiac, which again emphasises the link between the Magician and the Emperor.
Aries carries the original desire, the intent that generated the process of manifestation, and here we see that the Emperor has utilised the power of manifestation and holds dominion over the material world.
As usual, the planets reflect that grand cosmic truth to us again too, today, loud and clear: YOU are responsible for creating YOUR reality!
Today's New Moon has a strong fiery element, reflected in the vibe of the day, and with thewarm, expressive and joyous energy of Sagittarius.
So, 4's energy lays the foundations for physical life. The energy of the 4 is all about securing things, pinning things down, and feeling grounded. This is where the number 4 tempers and focuses the creative energy of the 3, which also plays its part today in the full date vibration of 31/4. With 31/4 we have creative energy, 3, focused with the intent of the divine self, 1, manifesting reality, 4.
The main theme expressed by the 31/4 vibration, is the importance of learning the art of COOPERATION. The 3's fiery creative energy is coupled here with the independent 1, making us determined and strong-willed but also sometimes too opinionated and stubborn, the downside of 4's energy.
Sagittarians are often experienced as forthright and dynamic in their constant quest for TRUTH, and this aspect is certainly highlighted today, and may need a bit of tempering!
3 and 4 are opposites in a number of ways, so there can be a bit of friction as you work on getting the balance right today, which is EXACTLY what the symbolism of the 31st card in the Tarot, the 5 of Wands is all about.
5 is change and movement, and with 5 and 3 we have AIR and FIRE. A big bonfire of creative energy can be whipped up in no time today, but the negative expression can cause argument and disagreement and burnt egos.
In the traditional Tarot imagery, 5 youths appear on the 31st card, wielding their wands in an apparently chaotic manner, and yet if they all work together and get the ego out of the way, they can co-operate and create great success: the key to this is the BALANCE of the mind, the 4, earth, logic, left brain and the 5 and 3, air and fire and right brain, emotive, sensual and communicative.
There could be opposition and struggle, as reflected in today's card, the 5 of Wands, but ultimately, these confrontations are designe to reflect to you what needs to change, what needs to be balanced, and as always, the real balance to be struck here is between the inner and outer SELF.
Keep centred, find your balance and communicate as clearly as you can without being to reactionary! Quite a tall order, but the planets and vibes are on our side!
Grounding and centering your fire energy is the priority today, and setting your intentions for the next new cycle, up to the Full Moon!
Write down your Lunar Manifestation list, and watch as your list manifests as the moon waxes. Enjoy your day everyone!
And if it's your birthday today, then this vibration stays with you for the year as your Personal Year vibration! Go well! Rosalind Pape.

A couple of days ago, my coworker came to work with shocking news that her friend's son was a victim of a drive by shooting "accident" in their neighborhood. It was on the news that evening. The poor boy was only 4 years old. Another senseless death e like what happened in Colorado last Friday.
But shooting incidents in this country seem common. My husband says that gun ban is also less likely to happen because it would be a violation of the right to bear arms.
I dont know whether the politicians will use the string of crimes related to gun activity to come up with a "bill" or "act". because that seems to be the trend here. they come up with more and more laws ironically, it doesnt really ensure it would prevent people from committing more crimes. Just the same, i think they should think of something that could curb the gun related violence. for instance try to monitor stores that sell guns and do background checks for people buying guns. stores selling guns should raise the red flag when someone suddenly make huge purchases of ammunition or firearms. its discouraging though since illegal purchase are also very rampant over here. im unsure also if that idea of monitoring guns being sold could be feasible though.then again, the government spends tax money on frivolous things like the bridge to nowhere for instance.

Technology has given us a great advantage in the world of finance. From research to the flow of money, the way finance is viewed now compared to 10 years ago has evolved greatly. Now, more than ever before, we rely on our phones more and more to pay bills, deposit checks, and help us calculate equations. Specifically in terms of personal finance, it has been easy to created apps that allow people to save and invest, thanks to the brilliant minds of many. In this article, we are going to focus on applications you can download on your phone that can help you save or invest.
Robinhood is a relatively new investing app that allows the user to invest in the stock market right from their phone, with no trading fees. Along with no trading fees, the company does not charge a fee to use the app. This is appealing to people who want to invest and not have large overhead in respect to their investments. Also, people who only want to invest a couple hundred dollars won't be offset with fees. Recently, the application has added margin trading which can give you more buying power, but can bring on unnecessary risk. Depositing into the app is easy as all you do is hook up your desired bank account and transfer money as you please. Go give this app a try if you're looking for simple investing. A side note is you have to invest in equities that trade on the US stock exchange as the app does not offer international equities.
Acorn is an application that allows you to round up to the nearest whole dollar on debit card transactions and invest them. They currently charge a dollar per month to use the application, but if you're a frequent debt card user, that cost is minimal. People who should use this app are the people who want to passively save without much effort on their own part. This is not lazy investing but rather a passive way to save your change in a jar that earns you a little money. You will not get rich using this app but it will push you in the right direction to better managing your personal finances.
For the people out there looking to get into cryptocurrencies, Coinbase is the app for you. This company allows you to buy, sell, send, and hold Bitcoin in a safe environment while being easily accessible. With Bitcoin becoming more and more popular, this company allows you to purchase as little as a dollar worth of Bitcoin. They also have an exchange where you can trade Bitcoin, which is a strong point for traders of the product. If you're looking to save, trade, or use Bitcoin, Coinbase certainly is an app to check out and add to your portfolio of financial applications.
There are many different ways to invest and save money beyond these three apps. If you're interested in saving pennies or saving thousands, there is an app that will fit your needs. Most are free or have low fees so explore for yourself and determine which one will fit you best.

A new guidance document aims to ensure mollusks such as oysters and clams are safe for human consumption.
The National Shellfish Sanitation Program (NSSP) Guide for the Control of Molluscan Shellfish: 2011 Revision is meant to be used by federal, state and international regulatory authorities and those in the shellfish industry, and outlines best practices for ensuring safety and sanitation, according to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration's Center for Food Safety and Applied Nutrition (CFSAN).
The 2011 revision supersedes the last revision from 2009.
The guide also describes the proper procedures for handling outbreaks such as Vibrio, which can cause foodborne illness in humans.

What with getting engaged, and now planning a wedding (June 2011!!), life has gone a bit crazy. I've barely knit since coming back from San Francisco. I seem to be able to waste as much time as I want looking a wedding blogs, wedding dresses, wedding everything online. I'm going to try to make myself have one wedding-free day each week. We'll see if it works. In other news, I finished Evenstar before going on our trip:
Oh yeah, and I entered it in the Calgary Stampede Western Showcase and won second place in the whole knitting section! Here's me when I discovered it:
I have now officially earned (well, won) money for knitting! Second place gets you $125 and a pretty blue ribbon. The big teal shawl on the right in the photo got first. It was great to see everything so well displayed – every time David goes to the Easter Show on Sticks and String, there are horror stories of how badly displayed the knitting is. Well done, Stampede.
I'm probably going to knit myself a wedding shawl (this one took under 2 months, I've got 11 until the wedding!) and mum asked if I'd still be able to submit it to the Stampede. The answer is a very large "maybe?" Knitting take-in was June 30th this year, and we've chose June 25 for the wedding, so if stuff stays the same, yes, I will be able to enter my wedding shawl into the Stampede. Or I might make a different one for the Stampede. After all, I have set a precedent!

Airswift is an international workforce solutions provider within the energy, process and infrastructure industries.
Transforming economies, changing lives.
There can be a lot of unique challenges if your company is growing and expanding its market and client base. Those challenges can become overwhelming if this includes overseas expansion. International job placement is complex, and may require work permits, visas, international travel and finance, and a lot of complicated logistics. In short, it can strain your management and human resources teams at a time when they already have a lot of work.
That's why it makes a lot of business sense to partner with agencies for jobs overseas when you're looking to expand into and hire in a new country overseas.
There are a lot of reasons to work with overseas employment agencies, including the fact that overseas recruitment agencies already have an existing talent pool that is either willing to relocate or working in the area where you need staffing. An overseas jobs agency can take the complicated and paperwork-intensive process of international hiring and make it as simple as reviewing and approving pre-screened candidates for your positions and contracts.
The right international placement agency can connect you with highly-skilled labor quickly and with minimal strain on your existing human resources or management teams.
In addition to freeing up your existing management and human resources teams to focus on your current operations during this time of growth and upheaval by taking over the applicant search and vetting process, overseas job agencies can do a lot to make the international expansion process simpler and quicker for your company.
The right overseas employment agency will be able to quickly connect you with the right people for the positions you need filled, whether you're looking for short-term contract workers for an internationally based project or full-time permanent workers for a new location overseas.
In addition to helping your company locate, connect with, vet, and hire the right talent, an overseas job agency can take care of any legal and logistical requirements of your overseas work An overseas job agency can handle the details and paperwork that could prove overwhelming for your existing staff, if they don't have experience in overseas hiring and relocations.
Airswift is a global leader in workforce in the energy and infrastructure industries. We have over 50 offices around the world, hundreds of employees and thousands of experienced, highly-skilled contractors who can fill your positions.
Our experience and dedication to client satisfaction has allowed us to be trusted by many of the major companies in the workforce solutions industry. If your company is expanding overseas, choose Airswift to assist with your offshore hiring.

Yesterday the Laker Navy took some time away from the ergs to hold a 50 minute sledding workout. The team was encouraged to make a contraption worthy of sliding down the hill behind the boathouse. The contraptions build by the rowers mainly comprised of pizza boxes, plastic trash bags, and also one dining room chair. Fun was had by all member of the crew as snowball fights eventually broke out among the ranks. In addition, a special appearance was made by the Jamaican bobsled team (as pictured above) in their last run after briefly coming out of the retirement. The team will resume practice tomorrow as well as classes, stay warm, have fun, and as always keep pulling for the Laker Navy.

artist's statement
Experiencing the sublime is to be without limits. Free from association and memory, no longer do I hold an identity. I float into a place unknown, into the absolute. My tempo has changed, time lies dormant, breath cut off, no longer aware of my heart beat or cold hands.
In search of the sublime, my interdisciplinary work is often expeditionary by nature. I find myself in harsh climates and uninviting landscapes, observing how my morphology and physiology are ill-adapted as I experiment with performance. I record video and sounds that occur within a landscape like ice breaking and the ocean moving like a breathing chest. I breathe with it.
I bring these experiences back to the studio and build sculpture based on my memories and concerns. I use materials such as ice, clay, wood, bees, fabric, and fungus to build my sculptures. Combined with video, this work evolves into installation. Throughout my process, I ponder the dominion we as humans hold over other life forms and ecosystems. Simultaneously, I am humbled by the authority mother nature holds over my species. My aim is to better understand the tensions that exist between being human, being humbled, and our responsibilities to nature.

Transferring Tech
The IDE is a software developer's toolbench. For the most part it's an ordered chaos, with all of a developer's favorite windows and extensions at the ready. Unfortunately, the IDE's complexity helps to hide some of its glaring shortcomings -- it's easy to focus on the shiny wrenches across the front while ignoring your Grandfather's 1970s disc sander that's about to melt down from misuse. Like Grandpa's sander, code search* is a tool that's in dire need of an overhaul.
* In this article code search refers to the act of searching over the code base that one is currently working on, not searching over repositories of code.
Code Search Sucks.... Really?
Developers, having grown up on awful search tools, have become numb to the problem. Many may not even believe it is a problem! In order to illustrate the sorry state of code search let's explore an analogy based on web search...
I've got a new web search service that I'd like for you to try, called Gaagle. It's incorporated all of the key features of modern code search. Let's try searching for "Visual Studio" using Gaagle:
Ohps! I misspelled "Visual Studio", but Gaagle doesn't fix my mistake (or even point it out). Gaagle simply obediently reports that there are, in fact, no matches for the search terms "Vizual Sudio". Thanks Gaagle!
Having corrected my search terms to "Visual Studio" I search using Gaagle again. This time I get lots of hits! However, the hits are visualized as a list of paths, leading to an exciting game of "what's behind that link!" After clicking on each link in the list I have a pretty good idea (and a sore mouse-finger).
But wait, there's been an upgrade to Gaagle! Instead of returning results in an ordered list Gaagle now returns unordered results. That means that each and every web page in the world that contains the terms "Visual Studio" are returned to me for my search. No worries! I start wading through the thousands of (mainly irrelevant) hits until I find what I'm looking for.
Not ready to switch to Gaagle? Well surprise... you're already using it! If you're using Visual Studio 2010 or earlier your code search (i.e., Edit > Find and Replace > Find in Files) operates almost exactly like Gaagle.
Join Us in Fixing Code Search!
Visual Studio, so powerful in many other ways, has neglected code search. This January we're starting a project to modernize code search, called Sando. If you long for a modern code search experience please join us at http://sando.codeplex.com/. We're looking for great developers (with C# or Java experience) but also for any suggestions or requests that can help shape our search tool.
David Shepherd leverages software engineering research to create useful additions to the IDE.

Our life and travels, from fulltime Rv living, to a new home in the North Georgia Mountains, our other "home" in the Florida Keys, and traveling in our new mini RV.
Wednesday, September 13, 2017
Hurricane Irma Aftermath
We survived Hurricane Irma and all of our close family and friends are safe and sound. We have a neighbor in the Keys who stayed to ride out the hurricane, and we haven't heard anything about him, which is not particularly unusual right now. There is no electricity, the cell towers are down, and info is scarce. We are hoping he and his friends are fine.
The Tampa area dodged a big bullet when the storm shifted a little at the last minute, sparing a direct hit over Tampa. Our motorhome appears to be fine, but I'll feel better when our friend Stephanie checks it out inside.
Mom and my brother are fine with no damage or flooding. They were without power for about 18 hours. Our rental house is fine, but 24 hours afterwards, power still had not been restored. That is miserable for them because unlike the cool temps here, it is very hot in Florida.
The media has finally realized that the big story regarding Irma, was down in the Keys. Unfortunately, Irma made landfall on Cudjoe Key. If that sounds familiar to any of you, it may be because our property is on Cudjoe, at Venture Out Resort, and you've seen many posts from there. You will be hearing a lot about the area in the days to come.
We bought an older and inexpensive (thank goodness) fifth wheel last year and had it towed down there as our winter home. Al nearly killed himself drilling down into the very, very hard rock in order to install anchors to secure the RV. We never kidded ourselves that the anchors would stop a Cat 4 or 5 hurricane, but we thought just maybe it would help during a minimal storm.
Once we knew the Keys were going to be hit with a Cat 4 hurricane, we wrote off our RV and boat, knowing they could not survive 140 mile an hour winds and 5-10 feet of storm surge. However, when the weather reports confirmed Cudjoe Key to be ground zero, it was a little emotional and very sad.
Information coming in and out of the Keys has been almost nonexistent. There is no cell service or power. No one is has been allowed in or out. Land lines seem to work, but very few people have them. Finally, the media has recognized this to be a big story and they are flocking down there filming the areas and interviewing survivors. There are survivors down there in the brutal heat with limited food, water or shelter.
There are Facebook groups forming for the different areas and everyone shares every bit of info they get. It comes in pieces. We have seen a few photos and videos of Venture Out and Cudjoe Key, but so far, not specifically our house.
NOAA, is doing a fly over filming the area so people can get a close up look at their property. My cousin Anne was able to see a picture of their house, showing them that it's still standing and has an intact roof. Such a relief for them, but they are still now allowed reentry into the Keys. They are hoping early next week.
They filmed Key West first, and were supposedly working their way up to Cudjoe Key, but for some reason skipped it and went right up to Marathon. There is speculation online that it was because Cudjoe was ground zero and the damage was so bad. I don't really know.
If you would like to see some of the damage, here is a link
You have to zoom in and then under layers, select "map box streets". You can see cars in the driveways, boats, even my cousin's Tiki hut and pool.
After being glued to Facebook and the Tv for two days, we have finally gotten a little bit of good news. Nothing specific for our property, but there are rv's that appear to have survived. We have seen pictures of them in our park which are standing upright and even the AC covers are intact.
Unfortunately, we've also seen some completely obliterated and others laying on their sides. We have no idea about the state of ours, but after thinking about where the hurricane made landfall and the direction of travel, we realize our would have been hit broadside with only one row of homes between it and the ocean. Broadside is never good.
So, we wait. We don't know if we should go down and see if we can salvage anything or not. We don't want to go down there for nothing, but it would be nice if we could salvage some of our stuff. It will be brutally hot. We won't have a place to stay and hotels will be limited. Will there be power, water, cell service, fuel? All questions we can't answer right now. We were hoping to see the aerial photos today to confirm one way of the other if our RV was in one piece or a thousand. It looks like we have to wait another day or two.
This is a picture of the Southernmost point in the US. This buoy is famous and every tourist in Key West takes a picture of himself at this point. It's symbolizes the rest of the Keys. Battered, but not broken.

Wow, it must be so hard not knowing! I am just thankful that you weren't there at the time. Glad to hear that you, Al and all your family members made it through the storm, everything else can be replaced. I hope that you will receive good news about your 5th wheel down in the Keys in the next day or two.ReplyDelete
As Ruth stated we are glad none of you or your family were directly affected and will keep praying that your property at Cudjoe wasn't too badly damaged.ReplyDelete
This might be a time to use the Motorhome just in case you need a place to stay and someplace to put things you salvage.
Be Safe!
It's about time.
yeah when we heard it hit Cudjoe we both immediately wondered how your site fared...ReplyDelete
Good luck on a positive outcome of your trailer and boat, at least you and your family is safe and your motorhome, I am sure you will keep us posted.ReplyDelete
Thank you for posting this, Karen. You're the only people I know in that area and I've been thinking about you guys a LOT. So far, so good. Of course, your lives are the most important, and hopefully your 5th wheel and belongings will be safe and intact, too. Fingers crossed for you! :)ReplyDeleteReplies
Thanks. Once we get the NOAA image maps updated, we should have a much better idea.Delete
Nice symbol at the end Karen. Can't the people who own the park where you have your trailer contact the owners and let them know the status?ReplyDeleteReplies
Sherry,each one of are the owners of the park and all the security and staff have been evacuated, so no one knows except the few people who rode out the storm and they do not have access to phones or internet. Tv crews have flown in and done videos but none have shown our exact site. Close, but not our site. Once they start letting people back into the Keys, we'll have plenty of information. For now, we have to wait on the NOAA maps. They are kind of interesting it you want to check them out. They were filmed from aircraft since the hurricane. https://storms.ngs.noaa.gov/storms/irma/index.htmlDelete
Glad to hear that everyone is okay. It's very sad and hard to lose personal possessions but you know that it will be okay eventually. Waiting to hear more.ReplyDelete
Awful! Hope your RV made it. We have a friend that has a home on a canal in the keys and he is driving south today to see if he still has a home:(ReplyDelete
Just so glad your family is ok!! Also glad the motor home is most likely undamaged!! That is all great news!! Not knowing about your property in the Keys must be awful!! Hopefully you will hear soon!!ReplyDelete

Jessica Simpson is pregnant with baby No.2, this according to media reports. Find out more about the news that even took Jessica by surprise, next!
The world is in shock after reports claiming Jessica Simpson is
pregnant again have surfaced. Jessica Simpson has sparked a media
frenzy in 2011, when she started to flaunt a fuller figure and a
growing baby bump. After months of speculations, Jessica Simpson
admitted that she was pregnant with her fiance, former NFL pro Eric
Johnson, and in 2012, she welcomed her first bundle of joy,
Maxwell Drew.
During her pregnancy, Jessica was harshly critiqued for her weight gain (70 pounds), but brushed off any negative comments saying that she wanted to enjoy every bit of her pregnancy and that she doesn't care what others say. However, after baby Maxwell was born, Jessica signed a $4 million deal with Weight Watchers, to be a spokesperson for the weight loss program that eventually helped her to shed the extra pounds beautifully, but it seems that an unplanned event is going to put her diet on hold, as US Weekly reported that a source confirmed the singer/businesswoman is pregnant with her second child.
Jessica Simpson, who welcomed first daughter only 7 months ago,
said she's smitten with her baby girl, and in a interview she gave
People in May, Jessica revealed that "I don't want to have another
baby right away but I do want to have more kids. Having babies back
to back has to be so hard. I really want to give Maxwell all of the
attention and all of the love and time that I possibly can give
her. When I feel like it's the right time to bring another little
one into the family, I will. I won't wait too long but I won't do
it immediately."
However, things must have changed a bit as US Weekly reports that Jessica was caught by surprise with her second pregnancy. A source told the publication that:
"It definitely wasn't planned. But yes, Jessica is pregnant again. She really is overjoyed!"
Jessica Simpson has yet to issue an official statement as far as her pregnancy rumors go, but her publicist told People when asked about the baby #2 rumors that "I'm not going to comment on this speculation."
In case her pregnancy rumors turn out to be true, her Weight Watchers deal will probably be put on standby, so we'll just have to wait and see what happens.
Do you think Jessica Simpson's second pregnancy rumors are 'right on the money'?

When I run, I'm happy .. I've played different sports. I started with fencing at the Children's Club in Iaşi, I tried table tennis and field tennis. Nothing came out of me. I got bored quickly. I was small and weak, I did not have enough power, and I did not get too far. I'm annoyed to be overtaken by others. And instead of accepting I was not the best, I'd have better said I was bored. But I think I might have built career in gymnastics, if I had let my parents take me to the center in Bacau. I liked gym very much. I knew a lot and when I was watching competitions on TV, I used to guess the correct mark before the referees. I knew how to calculate the gymnasts' performance. I would have been good.
Now I like to run and I set my goal to 42 kilometers, a marathon. In fact, I want to run 100 kilometers.
I like to be free .. for me to running means freedom, it means a permanent fight with myself, with my own limits ..

Naiad-like bound, by your charms

Silenced, by decrepit acts of hate
Ramshackled erudites, remain illiterate
ps. Written to highlight the 'closed' minds of supposedly well meaning and learned people who are apparitions in modern society.

As an editor, most of my day is spent inside of Avid Media Composer, but occasionally I will get to turn on my Spotify, groove to the music and crank out some Adobe After Effects or Maxon Cinema 4D work. Over the years I've found some shortcuts within After Effects that make my job easier, and I wanted to share five of my favorites… from an editor's perspective.
Double Click in the project window to import an asset
When importing assets into an Adobe After Effects project I often see people do the archaic: File > Import. Instead, if you just double click in the Project Window you will save yourself a few steps. Simple, but I see it all the time.
Tilde key (`) to make full screen
Another shortcut that a lot of artists surprisingly don't know about is the ability to quickly make any pane inside of After Effects full screen. When hovering over a window pane, like your composition timeline, hit the Tilde key (`) to make it go full screen. One workflow I typically use in a two monitor scenario is to put the Composition output monitor on one monitor at almost full screen all the time and the other panes on the other monitor, this way when I want a full screen timeline (by hovering over the timeline pane and hitting the Tilde key (`) I can still see my output at full screen.
Scaling keyframes evenly when lengthening an effect by holding Option
If you've ever been at a point where a client says, 'I love everything you've done but I would like it four frames longer," you may want to run into a wall, unless you know that highlighting all the keyframes you want to extend and holding Option while clicking and dragging the last keyframe will evenly scale all keyframes. This won't always save your butt, but sometimes it will save you hours of work.
Viewing Waveforms in the timeline by clicking the layer and hitting 'LL (L – 2 times)'
Just as it says, if you want to easily view a waveform to sync up an animation, hit the L button two times quickly while having the layer selected and they will pop up.
Enabling Guide Layers
This shortcut is more for broadcast folks who often need to be aware of placement of text and graphics for network deliverable specs. If you have a layer that you want to see most of the time but don't want it to render out when it comes time to export, simply click Layer > Guide Layer. This is will save you tons of time from enabling and disabling that eyeball each time you want to see if your amazing graphic will be hit by sneaky networks teases during your show. This is also very helpful when a client wants to recreate graphics and somehow doesn't have the After Effects file.
I use these shortcuts all the time, and hopefully they will help you too. I always love hearing about new shortcuts, so if you have any, tweet them to me @allbetzroff and @postPerspective on Twitter!

>> Reformation...?
So yeah, I've gotten an itch to come back and start working on scanlations again. You can thank the amazing group of people I ran into at Otakon (who thankfully didn't rat me out for being a lazy bum) and that one booth in the dealers room where I bought RM3 from. I suppose I burnt myself out after the Abyss anime (which was ages ago anyways) and an overload of projects, school and work and I just kinda disappeared without realizing it. I mean, we even skipped over our 4th Anniversary!
Think of this as a recruitment post as well~ Since we're pretty much starting from the ground up again, I'm still scrambling to figure out who's still willing to do what [Btw if I gave you a project ages ago and I forgot like the idiot I am, please comment here]. While I'm still probably gonna be OCD over cleaning and typesetting for a while, translation/scanning positions are still open, like they always were and always will be. So if you want to help out, drop a comment or email me.
I should also note that work on the
Tsuioku no Jade
Senketsu no Asch
manga is stalled and the pages will probably be pulled when the manga are released in English later this year. Try and buy them when they're officially out, okay? Good sales might mean more official English Tales manga!
Also: What are your preferences on series we should cover? I mean, Abyss is still a go, but I'd still rather not cover the exact same series that Eternal does because that'd be just plain silly.

As far as TotA goes, I already asked Rena if WoaA and Eternal can just join together for this series, and Rena said she can't though, but I forgot what her reason is already...kinda recalled she telling me that it's because of that gap between the two groups' releases though...*shrug*

@seijin: Awesome~ Which Tales games would you be more comfortable translating manga/anthologies for, btw? I barely know what series I have raws to work on for at this point.
Posted by

I would love to see more of the Symphonia anthologies myself!

Welcome back, and thanks for the update!
What about
Tales of Destiny: Kami no Me wo Meguru Yabou
? It sounds like its storyline diverges from the game's canon, so it might make an interesting scanlation.
On the subject of translators, do you still need one?
Posted by
on Oct 25, 2011
For non-ToA we still need translators. For collabs with Eternal too...Iirc Rena mentioned the Jude-side ToX manga in the shoutbox.

If you guys can get raws of the regular Tales of Destiny manga, I'd be more than happy to translate that for you. I have hard copies of the books up to volume 3 or 4 in French and could translate it pretty easily. Aaah, character limit. Email me if you're interested?
Posted by
on Oct 31, 2011
It's good to see you guys back again ^^.

on Nov 02, 2011
We're probably not going to work on the original ToD manga simply because it's already finished in terms of being worked on by Boku-tachi and Eternal and I don't see the point of releasing something that was released already in full. =w=

Simulated Society : Participant's Manual With Selected Readings
ISBN10: 0684871408 ISBN13: 9780684871400 Contributors: Peppers, Larry G. Publisher: Simon & Schuster (Sd) Published: Jul 1 2000 Pages: 117 Weight: 1.00lbs. Height: 11.00" Width: 8.50" Depth: 0.50" Language: English
SIMSOC: Participant's Manual SIMSOC (which is pronounced sim-sock and stands for simulated society) is a dynamic group simulation game that forces participants to cope with the daily problems of governing society. Assuming a variety of roles, the players grapple with issues like abuse of power, justice, diversity, trust, and leadership as they negotiate their way through labor-management strife, political turmoil, and natural disasters. SIMSOC imposes few rules and restrictions upon its participants. There is no programmed outcome. Success or failure is dependent upon decisions made by players and the creativity of the group. To be successful, players must utilize every basic social process from cooperation and reward to threat and punishment. SIMSOC will make participants ask questions about social control, and bring everyday experience and deeper understanding to even the most arcane social and organizational theory. Included in this Fifth Edition of SIMSOC's Participant's Manual are instructions for playing, materials for play, study questions based on participation, and selected readings about simulation games, leadership, and social processes. New to the Fifth Edition are additional size levels to accommodate larger groups, simplified rules, and readings by authors from Nicholas Lemann to Robert Putnam. Each SIMSOC participant should have a copy of the Participant's Manual and the instructor a copy of SIMSOC's Coordinator's Manual, which contains additional materials needed for play and directions on how to set up and run SIMSOC. One Coordinator's Manual will be needed for each SIMSOC exercise of up to ninety participants. It can be obtained, for a $5.00 fee, by writing, on letterhead, to: The Free Press A Division of Simon & Schuster, Inc. Faculty Service Desk 1230 Avenue of the Americas New York, NY 10020

The housing element of the Nez Perce County Comprehensive Plan specifically considers the type and condition of the existing housing stock. It is intended to promote a variety of residential densities and housing types, and encourage the enhancement and preservation of existing housing stock throughout the community.
The county does not directly provide housing to its citizenry. The county provides the building environment by describing through development regulations (zoning, subdivision, and building codes) how the construction of housing and other types of land development will take place. The Housing Element of the comprehensive plan specifically considers the conditions of the existing housing stock; the cause, scope, and nature of any housing problems; and the provision of a variety of housing types to match the lifestyle and economic needs of the county.
Historically, natural resource and agricultural industries have supported Nez Perce County. According to the Idaho Department of Commerce these industries have seen declines in employment. Retail trade and service industries are on the rise; however, these industries have not been able to offer the same wages as the natural resource industry. The changing economy is impacting local workers. A major impact to the region is the increase in the number of retirees moving into the area. Many of these households are "equity refugees", persons arriving with large amounts of equity from the sale of a home in another state or another part of Idaho. These households then purchase homes in the region and use the remaining funds from their home sale as retirement income. This impacts the housing market through increased home prices.
Characteristics of Housing Stock:
According to the 1990 U.S. Census, Nez Perce County's housing characteristics are listed in Table 5-1.
The United States Census defines a household as one (1) or more persons occupying a housing unit. Housing units are defined as occupied or vacant houses, apartments, or single rooms intended as separate living quarters. According to the 1990 US Census, Nez Perce County had an average of 2.57 persons in each owner-occupied housing unit and 2.17 persons in each renter-occupied housing unit. Six hundred seven (607) people lived in group quarters, such as institutions, jails, detention centers, convalescent hospitals, etc.
Age of Housing Stock:
Table 5-2 and Figure 5-1 present the number of units of housing stock built before and after 1980. The table and figure are not intended to portray all homes built before 1980 as inadequate; rather, they present a portrait of the number of older versus newer homes for consideration.
Click for Table 5-2 (Age of Housing Stock ....)
The oldest housing stock in the state is located in this North Central region of Idaho. Owned units average 28 years of age, while rental units average 40 years of age. The latter figure suggests a lack of new multi-family construction. The rental units tend to be older single-family homes that would not command high prices if sold to would-be owners.
Approximately, 85 percent of the housing stock in Nez Perce County was constructed prior to 1980.
Owner-Occupied and Renter-Occupied Dwelling Units:
Sixty-six percent (66%) of occupied dwelling units in 1990 were owner occupied. Renter occupied units have only increased by 426 units since 1980.
Vacancy Rates:
The 1990 U.S. Census reported that 5.8% (845 units) of the total housing stock was vacant. This figure includes 141 units held for occasional, recreational, or seasonal use. This is a healthy overall rate--indicating that the county has a good housing supply. Breaking this figure down into housing types reveals that the owner vacancy rate was 1.3% and the rental vacancy rate was 4.6% in 1990.
Type of Dwelling Units:
The number of housing units within the planning area was 14,463 according to the 1990 U.S. Census data. Approximately 70% of the county's housing stock (10,102 units) is in single-family dwellings. Approximately 18% (2,638 units) is in multi-family structures with 2 to 10 units per structure. Mobile homes, trailers, etc. account for 12% (1,723).
Housing Affordability:
Affordability is a difficult housing variable to measure. The federal government considers a unit "affordable" if the household living in that unit is paying no more than 30% of the total household income towards housing. This definition does not consider household preference. Some households are willing to bear a higher cost burden if in exchange they receive more space; other households must bear costs in excess of 30% of their incomes out of necessity, not choice.
Seven hundred fifty-eight (758) households in Nez Perce County were paying greater than 30% of their total household income for housing costs according to the 1990 U.S. Census. This represents 5.5% of the total households. The median housing value increased by 25% from $45,400 to $56,700 between 1980 and 1990. Median rent increased by 48% from $168/mo. to $249/mo. between 1980 and 1990.
The Idaho Housing Agency (1995), reports that between the years 1995 and 2000, the State of Idaho is expected to gain 14,613 new families with children and 21,963 non-elderly families without children. Families with annual incomes in the $10,000 to $30,000 category are expected to make up a majority of this demand.
Land for new housing is available in Nez Perce County. Unfortunately, parcels with a full range of zoning densities are not available. Zoning should be reviewed to see that it provides opportunities for a choice in housing types (multi-family, rental , retirement, etc.). The Land Use Map (Figure Map-2) identifies residential areas to meet growth demand. Existing zoning and subdivision ordinances will require updating to be in compliance with the housing goals and policies of this plan and the future land use map. Please refer to the "Land Use" chapter for an analysis of land use categories.
Goal Statement:
To ensure safe, decent and adequate housing opportunities within Nez Perce County to meet the needs of individuals of all socio-economic backgrounds, the elderly and the disabled.

Legendary Divorce: Make Me MCD
Click to enlarge
From Philly blog The Deli - "Their debut EP "Make Me" is a rugged blend of agitated aggression. The songs have a tendency to immediately pounce on one's ears. Itarya Leo's vocals occupy a space were pensive rage and sadness compact themselves. The unfiltered byproduct joins up with steady, slightly dark instrumental tones, which are forceful yet frayed. Leo's voice etches a path through the noise-punk, thumping music like a fireball amid organized chaos." Not sure what some of that means, but we say: DAMN this noisy lil' grunge-pop EP seriously kicks your teeth in with sugar-coated steel toe boots! Members of The Starting Line, Wives, Ladder Devils and The Minor Times.
