Most Difficult Level?

Depends on the candidate. For quant-leaning folks with intermediate course in accounting, Level 2 may be the easiest. I would say Level 3 is the toughest.
Your right. I thought level 3 was the easiest which is why i'll be taking it again next june.
L3 is the hardest.
I passed L1 in Dec 03 and L2 in Jun 04. I knew that L3 was going to be a bear and put in probably 400 hours…yet I failed. You make decisions and my decisions were based upon how I passed L1 and L2. I used Schweser. During the PM session of L3 in 2005, I looked up and felt like I had been hit by a 2x4. I have never felt so bad. How could I fail a test that I was 100% prepared for? I knew that it would be difficult and I was prepared.
20 minutes after receiving my results, I signed up for Jun 2006. I had to change everything. I didn't know how I could study any harder. I just had to study differently. I had to fight complacency. I didn't want to wait until April to get started. I needed structure
1. I signed up for a weekly analyst class in San Francisco starting in January. I knew that I probably wouldn't learn too much from this class, yet it would provide structure. I vowed to read both the schweser guides and CFAI textbooks before each class. I was going to get as much out of this class as possible.
2. I repurchased schweser. Schweser is great for the LOS, yet sucks with questions. I would also read the CFAI texts and do all the problems in the CFAI texts.
3. I also took the schweser course. The course is a great way to tie things together.
4. Get done with schweser by May. Do the old AM tests over and over and over until you know the tricks. The key to the AM is getting through the first question quickly. Do tests and study one schweser guide per day.
I passed in Jun 06. Then again. 76% passed, so what do I know.
Haven't taken L3 yet but from the guys in my office that have completed it they all say L2 was the hardest. Obviously L3 isn't a cakewalk, but as others have mentioned above, the L3 material seems more interesting and relevant so not as bad to study.
None of the guys I've spoken to have taken it in the last four years though, so maybe it's changed.
I thought LII was the hardest.
I also thought LIII material was more relevant to my work experience and it just sunk in more. Wasn't easy though…
I also thought LI was pretty damn hard also, didn't really know what to expect.
I have to say level 2 is the hardest because the material was so detailed, technical, and boring. I kind of felt it was luck of the draw with what they asked. At least with Level III, you knew some key questions they were going to ask like IPS.
I would rank them 3,2,1. Level II was difficult due to the sheer volume of information that was covered but it was plug and chug for the most part. I agree that LIII was more interesting but for some of the am questions there is no clear cut answer. The LIII material was the most interesting mostly because there was no FSA.
My two cents..
Treat L3 as a more serious exam than L2 - that's how I passed.
If you're asking which exam is easier or harder, you're looking for someone to tell you that you can relax a bit with L3.. sorry, no easy way out for this one.
Work AT LEAST as hard as you did for L2 and practice the essays, repetition is key. Also, don't do what I did by not spending enough time on Ethics.. could've easily gotten myself a fail that way.
You are one step away from those letters after your name, now is the time to step up and get it done for good.
I think it's really an individual case by case basis. For me I think level 3 will be easier to "study" for only because I am not a security analyst, or do anything related to diving into the financial statments/accounting regularly. So for me, L2 should be the toughest since there was alot of accounting.
L3 doesn't have accounting right? If not, I think I'll have an easier time studying it…taking the exam is a different story I guess, ha.
After a few weeks of studying I thought L3 was much easier than L2. And the material really is easier, but the exam is harder.
321. but LIII was very interesting for me, and challenging as i studied the least out of all levels (approx 200 hrs). according to my results, i barely made it…
L II is the hardest. L III is much easier to study for, the material is more intuitive and that's why people who fail have almost passed. Most people fail with bands 8 and 9. Because it is easier I think the threshold is set much higher and you must be more accurate and attentive to details in essay portion.
^ -1. Explain to me how most people fail with bands 8 and 9 when it is a relative metric.
3 2 1
Level 3 is a different exam not to be underestimated. The afternoon appears easier because you prepare much more rigorously getting ready for the AM. You have to go into the AM being able to spit out list after list, while at the same time knowing how to interpret information and then make a decision based on readings which are filled with landmines.
Going from open ended questions to multiple choice questions are the equivalent climbing half-way up a mountain without a harness, and then taking an elevator the rest of the way to the top. You know the buttons when you see them, you just have to push the right one….not that bad.
LII seems to be the hardest, but since its all MC, you get to stab at ones you don't know.
LIII needs people to write accurate and targeted responses, not a task many people find easy. the different formatting makes it difficult
My bad. You are right. What I tried to say is most people who thought that they had passed (or at least the ones I know) failed with band 8 and 9. The difference between the scores of those who passed and those who didn't is minuscule. In fact, I think the score difference between all bands is tiny. There was a case on my floor with two guys who had the exact same scores with the only difference that one had below 50 in one question in the AM and the other had below 50 in a different one (with about the same points assigned to the questions). One passed, one failed. My thought is it is much easier to study for LIII and the exam itself is easier. In general, most people do well. But because of this, CFA institute puts approximately a 50% fail ratio, and the splits between bands are so so narrow.
Hope it explains my thinking.
How about this to determine the hardest level: What is the average number of attempts current charterholders took at each level? The highest wins.
I don't suppose that information is in the public sphere. Anybody care to speculate?
IMO L3 was the hardest level to pass, as mentioned- due to the format of the exam.
The actual curriculum may not have been as difficult, but it required a much stronger understanding of the material.
How about people coming from non-finance background but have IM work experience, which level was the most difficult? Why?
The exams are not easy, but in terms of difficulty I rank Level 2 hardest and L1 and L3 behind L2. In contrast to many posts on this forum, I think L3 was the most doable of the 3. Perhaps I am just a better CFA exam test taker now than when I started, but I also do a lot of work covered in L3.
I am speculating majority of chartholders have failed at least one exams along the way (most likely fail in L2 due to the big gap in difficulty from L1 to L2).
For non-finance background, I would say L2 is probably hardest (more materials, more complex, more memory retention needed). But I am starting to suspect, L3 is going to be the hardest to most people as it is effectively two exams roll into one (essay + vignette).
The good news is, you can take your time on the L3 preparation because once you get passed L2, you passed the 50% completion mark and the thought of dropping out of the CFA program should have diminished significantly. I wouldn't attempted the L3 exam until I feel confident enough though.

ummm…. band 10 means top 10% among those who failed, band 9 means the next 10% among those who failed, etc., so what you're saying is just incorrect.
Edit: I read the second response you wrote. I take back what I wrote then
At the risk of sounding like a punk, I will present this theory based on my observations of people I know who have CFA charters:
1. L2 is the hardest for people who are actually smart
2. L3 is the hardest for people who just work hard
It just seems like L2 material is really easy - it's just tedious to learn. It does, however, mean that anyone who spends enough time studying can regurgitate enough correct answers to pass.
From what I have heard of L3, it is conceptually harder, but is less tedious than L2. Furthermore, it is a written test, so it requires a non-superficial understanding of the material. Because of this, people with greater ability to understand complicated concepts are more likely to pass L3.
I'm just thinking out loud here. Of course, I might be completely wrong.
Level II was the most difficult and the most material. No way to get through that one but brute force - read, practice questions, memorize, and practice exams. Statistics, for me, was brutal on level II.
Level III was alot easier, IMO, however make sure you do as many practice exams as you can. It is truly the only way to get a grip on how to answer the portfolio management questions. I still don't understand why I was answering q's the way I did, except that it was how other similar questions were answered.
L3 wasn't that hard –> I do work for a PM and AM so I have experience in the area plus I majored in financial planning and minored in psychology which helped for pretty much all of it.
L1 was a cinch –> graduated with a bba and had seen 90% of the content before, except for the intense accounting stuff.
L2 was by far the toughest b/c the derivatives and valuation stuff was mostly new, even for those who had taken classes titled "Options, Futures, and Swaps" and "Valuation"
I put in twice the # of hours to get a worse grade for LII than I did for LI and LIII.
Don't let everyone convince you that the morning essay section is difficult. You may feel unconfident because you're unsure you got 100%, but the morning is what separates those who actually know the content and those who stuck to Schweser and Schweser alone.

This is backwards.. L2 has complex valuation formulas, advanced accounting concepts, and fairly intense quantitative areas, in which case if you get the formulas, and understand conceptually what is going on, and why things are they way they are, it will be easier and you can devote far less time on those topics..
L3 is much easier conceptually (There was virtually nothing I was scratching my head over). Further, there is a lot of subjectivity particularly in the IPS sections, where no matter how smart you may be, you may have a difficult time characterizing a scenario as simply 'average', 'above average' or 'below average'.
Every level has different challenges. Fact - 49% pass rate for level IIII people who really want to pass shows how tough that level is. Enuf said. The lowest pass rate ever for what I thought was a reasonable exam. Frightening. I thought I creamed it but I didn't =- I just passed. Thak God - my wife and kids made it all worthwhile and are still more pleased than me.

I sort of agree with this assessment and wanted to expand on it a bit. By way of background - I passed L1 in Dec '07, L2 in June '08 and L3 a few months ago. I also have an MBA so I'd seed a lot of the L1 and some of the L2 material in various finance and invesment classes before. I also have an undergrad degree in history.
Level 2 definitely is more about learning formula after formula, while L3 has the morning session which requires synthesis and interpretation. I would contend that L3 is a bit easier for people who are comfortable with and good at writing (in English), and less so for those with more quantative backgrounds - math majors, engineers, IT folks etc. Again, just a theory, but I found my liberal arts and writing background to be extremly helpful for the L3 morning session which some others found a real barrier to passing this test.

By now you have probably heard that Hillary Rodham Clinton is suffering from a blood clot supposedly a result of her recent fall. In that fall, she suffered a head injury and concussion.
Some have been political in their response to her fall (and injury) saying that she was only using this as an excuse to not testify in the Benghazi, Libya, that killed Ambassador Chris Stevens and three other Americans. While she took the responsibility because there were those in her group who dropped the ball, she has not been blamed.
At some point she acquired a virus which left her in a very weaken condition. She apparently passed out and fell thus causing the head injury while at home.
While I do not agree with her politics and/or the things she advocates and stands for, I certainly can appreciate her situation. Late in August of this year, I had some kind of mystery disease where I lost 24 pounds in 24 days and spent nine days in the hospital. I was sent home via ambulance because I was too weak to stand up.
The next morning, September 22, 2012, I got up to go to the bathroom, passed out, hit my head on the hinge of my closet door and ripped open my head with bleeding on the outside and a brain bleed on the inside with a severe concussion. I spent four days in the head trauma center at Emory University Hospital in Atlanta, Georgia. I am still struggling with the after effects. I can so identify with her on that.
If you are a supporter and/or fan of Ms. Clinton, it will be no effort for you to pray for her complete recovery of this blood clot. If you are not; and if you are a Christian. you are compelled to pray for her as well.
Dear God:
We are a troubled nation as you well know and we are now coming off a very bad year for America and as we face another new year, please help us to realize that this country is what the people of America makes her.
If we continue to hate (which is not YOUR will), and if we continue to choose up sides and refuse to forgive and pray for those who as the Bible says, "spitefully" uses us, then our course will likely follow the past; as it indicateds that we have not learned anything by YOUR chastisement
Lord, you know the heart of each of us and you know what our walk with YOU is like. We are told not to judge lest we be judged; but we know that does not mean we can't be fruit inspectors and judge a tree by the fruit it bears.
Many believe that Ms. Clinton has borne good fruit in many ways; but stand steadfast against her socialist views and politics. But as a child of YOURS, we pray that she will have a complete recovery without any complications; and that she will acknowledge that all good and great things comes from YOU and that her heart will be softened toward YOU and YOUR kingdom and not just making points for politics in this kingdom. Amen
The Associated Press reports:
"The former first lady and senator, who had always planned to step down as America's top diplomat in January, is known for her grueling travel schedule. She is the most traveled secretary of state in history, having visited 112 countries while in the job."
With her stepping down comes the important task of choosing someone to take her place. Senator John Kerry has been nominated by the President much to the chagrin of so many. Some may have forgotten his atrocious behavior during the Vietnam War in which he dissed our soldiers while they were still in harm's way fighting for our country.
He is not looked upon kindly by the military; and of course, there are those who do not agree with his politics as well. Many are praying that he will not be confirmed feeling there are a great many others who are more suited and qualified.
It seems that Americans have a lot of praying to do this year for healing and peace in our country as we bring in a new year. We should be praying every day that we will be given another chance by Almighty God; as we once again have respect for one another and honor life – all life – those who are pre-born, born with disabilities, and those who are elderly; and even those we do not agree with - but who stands in the need of God's love, redemption, and salvation. It was once said, "Those who deserve our love the least, need it the most!"
Let us covet together that we will be faithful this new year first of all to God, then our families and then our country – making sure that Christ is in the center of it all.
Let us look for things to once again to love about our country and be positive and patriotic in our words, deeds, and actions; and do everything in our own power and personal lives to bring about real change – a change back to the America that our forefathers dreamed and planned for – our defenders who fought and gave their life's blood for our freedom, and for our once elevated status in the world as the America the Beautiful, the land of the free, and the home of the brave as we continue to be ONE NATION UNDER God, and be ruled by WE THE PEOPLE.
We need to lay down our weapons against each other and say with Pogo, "We have met the enemy and he is us!"
America will only change when the American people change. Shall we all begin the change - on this dawn of a new year? May each of you have a glorious and wonderful New Year as we look to almighty God in the good times as well as the bad.For more on

Electricity Rates To Rise
An increase in electricity rates was not unexpected.
But the token decision to approve a 10 per cent rather than 10.48 per cent and shave just 3.1 million dollars from the proposed revenue requirement was surprising.
Prior to the decision on January 28th, 2010 small businesses an householders ahd expressed concern tha their bills had increased without any substantial change in their usage. The rate increase effective March 1st. hs already been criticised by the Small Business Association and the ordinary consumer.
Interestingly one commissioner, chartered accountant Andrew Brathwaite has expressed reservation in part about the extent of the increases for some categories of consumers, namely Large Power and Secondary Voltage Power (SVP). He said there would be significant instantaneous increases for these customers of BL&P and his preference was to avoid this by moving more gradually towards cost.
My concern all along is that the application would have led to a rate shock for ordinary consumers as the company moved top rebalance rates by requiring them to pay substantially more than large power customers.
Although BL&P now has to return to the FTC with amended rates as a result of the decision my position remains that ordinary consumers have not been dealt a fair hand in this decision.
The FTC has attempted to soften the inpact at the lowest usage level, but this is expected to prove quite inadequate as there already exists a povert gap between those who can afford a reasonable lifestyle and those who cannot. This decision and increased telephone rates can only worsen the situation for the working poor and unemployed.

Five lions will be coming to the Dallas Zoo when its new African Savanna exhibit opens next year, Mayor Tom Leppert told a breakfast group this morning.
Zoo officials told our David Flick last week that the lions would be part of the new exhibit, but Leppert's announcement provided fresh details about the animals.
There will be three males and two females and all will be under two years old, he said.
I believe he said they will arrive in April and am attempting to confirm that.
The 10-acre Giants of the Savanna exhibit is scheduled to open next spring.
It was fast-tracked by City Hall after a storm of protest over conditions that the zoo's last elephant, Jenny, was (and still is) kept in.
Officials of the newly privatized zoo expect the Savanna to be a more natural setting for its animals.
The arrival of the lions should quiet criticism of a different sort – that the lack of the big cats left visitors less than thrilled.
As one zoo visitor told Flick in August, ""No lions, that was my biggest disappointment today. I mean, how can you have a real zoo and not have a lion?"

Medium Cabinet Shelf
Make the most of your cabinet space with this versatile shelf. It features sturdy construction with a heavy plastic coating that protects your items. The free standing shelf can also be mounted with the included hardware. Measures 12 1/4" W x 9 7/8" D x 5 1/4" H.
Medium Cabinet Shelf
Great for the price
This shelf is so strong. I have my juice pitcher, fruit bowl with fruits in it and my olive oil bottle (small bottle in the corner) on top of my new shelf. I love it. Easy to clean and good enough to put in a corner to give more space.
April 25, 2013
Organize affordably!!
This is great because of the price and the quality, its very sturdy.
I used it to separate my heavy plates that i rarely use( 0nlyfor company) from the ones I use everyday instead of stacking them. Its the perfect height and weight to work inside of kitchen cabinets, but im sure you can even use this is pantry closets to make more use out of a shelf or in a bathroom closet to store beauty products or cleaning products. I highly recommend this item, it makes organizing easy and affordable
June 16, 2012
I put this in my cabinet and put all of my smaller tea cups on it. It's the perfect height for them to go under and on top of.
August 15, 2011
It´s great to make space - no matter where. I have 2 - one in the kitchen and the other in the bathroom. I will buy more.I can reach anything easily now. I use my cups and some plates on the bottom and other plates above.

MIT open course question. Harmonic oscilators
Hello everybody. Here is a ( I hope) simple question that cant let me sleep. The question is : At the course of physics one of the greatest profesors. Dr. Lewin drew a simple equation that 10Tm(2)= √m(2)/M(1) times 10Tm(1) . It was a harmonic oscilator composed by two object placed on a frictionless surface (device working as a hovecraft). This is whole note form this course
( Tm(2) - means period of mass 2, not times mass 2 ) m(1) = 186 +/- 1g A=20 cm 10 T = 15.16 +/- 0.1 sec ( observed while experiments work) 40 cm 10T= 15.13 +/- 0.1 s (same) THen m(2) = 372 +/- 1g 10Tm(2)=√m(2)/m(1) 10Tm(2) Please help ":)))) |
Jul12-12, 08:43 AM | #2 |
what is the question?
Jul12-12, 08:58 AM | #3 |
If you are asking how this formula is deduced, I will try to write a way down, if someone knows a faster way to explain -right now I cannot think properly...haha
[itex]\frac {(T_{1})^{2}}{m_{1}}=\frac {(T_{2})^{2}}{m_{2}}[/itex] but T=2π/ω [itex]\frac {(2π/ω_{1})^{2}}{m_{1}}=\frac {(2π/ω_{2})^{2}}{m_{2}}[/itex] [itex]\frac {1}{m_{1} ω_{1}^{2}}=\frac {1}{m_{2} ω_{2}^{2}}[/itex] [itex]m_{1} ω_{1}^{2}=m_{2} ω_{2}^{2}[/itex] Now if you know that this is k, you are fine. Otherwise you can write [itex]ω=\sqrt{\frac {k}{m}}[/itex] [itex]m_{1} \frac {k_{1}}{m_{1}}=m_{2} \frac {k_{2}}{m_{2}}[/itex] [itex]k_{1}=k_{2}[/itex] So if your oscilator is the same, the above equation holds right.... |

Can you explain a bit more? What is the set-up - how are the objects connected? What is "10T"? Ten periods??
Jul15-12, 05:55 AM | #6 |
It's a little bit hard to explain how Mr, Lewin's machine works. SO I ll put here this video.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=__2YN...feature=relmfu My problem with this formula occurs at 24 minute. |

You can derive this from the equation of motion of the mass tied to the springs, which we assume to be ideal ones obeying Hook's linear law, i.e., the force is proportional to the elongation out of equilibrium. Then you get the equation of motion
[tex]m \ddot{x}=-D x.[/tex] It is easy to see that the general solution of this equation is given by [tex]x(t)=A \cos(\omega t)+B \sin(\omega t) \quad \text{with} \quad \omega=\sqrt{\frac{D}{m}}.[/tex] Thus, the motion is periodical with a period of [tex]T=\frac{2 \pi}{\omega}=2 \pi \sqrt{\frac{m}{D}}.[/tex] Now in Lewin's Lecture (which I think are extremely good, as far as I can judge from watching several minutes around the point you gave), he just has doubled the mass and left the springs the same, i.e., [itex]D[/itex] is kept the same as before. Then the previous formula tells you that the period of the motion is proprotional to the square root of the mass, i.e., the new period is [tex]T_{\text{new}}=\sqrt {\frac{m_{\text{new}}}{m_{\text{old}}}} T_{\text{old}}.[/tex] Then he also gave an error estimation from the errors of the quantities going into this equation and then did the experiment. That's how physics works :-)). |
Jul15-12, 09:48 AM | #8 |
Maybe you meant to write. The period of an oscillator is independent of its mass. Then what is the "its"? A period doesn't have a mass. The critical part of this problem is what Lewin actually said in this sentence. The equations are straightforward. If there is a contradiction, then it caused by the words that Lewin said. Something Lewin said meant something different from what you thought he meant. Maybe you left a word out of the sentence (like scale). Or maybe in meant something different from what Lewin thought he meant (maybe he thought "scale" but didn't say it). Here are three possibilities: 1) Maybe Lewin was talking about a different type of oscillator. The period of a pendulum is independent of the mass of the bob, because of the principle of equivalence. 2) Maybe Lewin said that the period of the oscillator is independent of the units of mass. In other words, it doesn't matter if the mass is described in kilograms, grams or slugs. The period will be the same. 3) Equivalently, the period of an oscillator is independent of the mass scale. The word scale refers to a generalization of the word units. 4) Maybe Lewin said that the ratio between periods was independent of mass. |

I ve seen a spring with 15.5 kg ball that had a period the same as this ball woth Mr. Lewin on it. which means mass has no matter. My english may be not as good as rest of my languges but I merely remarquing upon the fakt that I see that T1/m1 is not the same as T2/m2... maybe this formula is not a formula of this experiment.. thats why im asking If I have had make a mistake sory . I didnt want it
Jul15-12, 02:58 PM | #10 |
Mass on spring: T= 2[itex]\pi[/itex][itex]\sqrt{m/k}[/itex] (period depends on mass) Simple Pendulum (small oscillations): T = 2[itex]\pi[/itex][itex]\sqrt{L/g}[/itex] (period does not depend on mass) |
Jul15-12, 03:19 PM | #11 |
about pendulum. and I cant understand what in this second case when as vanhees said he ve doubled mass . its a device 2 objects on frictionless surface. woth springs on both sides. and he just moved it.. and wrote this formula

Now I'm confused. I watched the video around minute 24, and there was no pendulum but a little wagon on an airtrack fixed with two springs. Of course, within the linear regime of elongations, this leads to harmonic motion with frequency [itex]\omega=\sqrt{D/m}[/itex], where [itex]D[/itex] is the spring constant in Hook's Law and [itex]m[/itex] is the mass of the oscillating body. See also my previous posting. Of course, then the period is
[tex]T=\frac{2 \pi}{\omega}=\frac{1}{2 \pi} \sqrt{\frac{m}{D}},[/tex] i.e., the period is proportional to the square root of [itex]m[/itex] as long as the linear regime of the elongation-force law is not left. All this is nicely demonstrated in the video. |

A few days ago I received an email from James Knochel at SendTheEnterprise.org. I had never heard of the group before. Their goal is to save the USS Enterprise from the scrapyard by converting it into a dedicated disaster response ship:
The Navy is planning to send the Enterprise on two 6-month cruises before throwing it away. They'll have to cut it up to extract the nuclear reactors, so there's no prospect for turning it into a museum. The Enterprise's replacement, the USS Gerald R. Ford, is specifically designed to reduce operating costs. The Enterprise is just too expensive for the Navy to keep as an active warship.
Instead of throwing away a perfectly functional ship, we propose that the Enterprise be dedicated to disaster response.
This is a horrible idea. Enterprise is too big, too deep, too costly, and too old to be a viable dedicated humanitarian and disaster relief ship. The fundamental problem with Knochel's idea is that it seems primarily interesting in finding a mission for the ship, rather than finding the right ship for the mission. In other words, it is about saving Enterprise, not saving people. If you are really interested in providing effective humanitarian relief, loading disaster response modules onto many ships would be a better choice.
However, given that it is clearly an original idea, I thought I would throw it out there to readers and see what your thoughts are.
Update: Here is a response from Knochel
"The genesis for my "Send the Enterprise" idea was in thinking about
ways to mitigate the environmental impact of BP's Deepwater Horizon
blowout.Oil seeps into the world's oceans every day. Bacteria in the ocean
waters use oxygen to eat this oil. But due to the massive amounts of
oil and natural gas that were being released from the blowout, all
available oxygen in the waters around the Macondo Prospect site was
quickly consumed.My idea called for using "bubble fences" to get extra oxygen into the
water, thereby feeding the oil-consuming bacteria. This would require
a lot of energy, and I thought the U.S. Navy's "portable" nuclear
reactors would be the ideal way to power this sort of infrastructure.One of my early readers suggested that it'd be easier to pump warm,
oxygenated water to the depths required than air, which I eventually
realized was a good insight.It's not enough to have a good idea, they have to be properly marketed
too. In hindsight, Kevin Costner's centrifuge was rather mediocre at
actually collecting oil, but his celebrity status got him attention
and million-dollar contracts.I have neither celebrity nor attention, and good ideas don't sell
themselves. To help with marketing, I titled my piece to piggyback on
to the mystique and legend of the Navy's oldest nuclear powered ship:
Save the Gulf, Send the Enterprise.In the process of researching that article, I learned about many of
the disasters that the Navy has responded to in recent years. After
BP's well was finally plugged, my thoughts shifted towards future
disasters: the possibility of another offshore blowout, and the
certainty of future volcanic eruptions, earthquakes and tsunamis
anywhere in the world."When Disaster Strikes, Send the Enterprise" gets a lot more attention
than "wouldn't it be cool if the U.S. Navy had some ships that were
dedicated to disaster response?"Perhaps you all are correct that amphibious ships are more appropriate
for HA/DR than retired aircraft carriers. Whatever the case, I'm
hoping that the Congress will appropriate some money to fully study
the prospect of dedicating ships to these purposes.If this idea takes off, and you see the media talking about "sending
the Enterprise", please remember it's more a marketing strategy than
an effort to "save" a specific ship.Thanks for all the feedback & ideas.

Target Healthcare REIT, an investor in UK care homes, has completed its first acquisition since listing its shares on the London Stock Exchange's Main Market on 7 March 2013.
For a total consideration of GBP14.2m, the company has acquired a portfolio of three purpose built care homes, all constructed in 2012, which are located in Dundee, Arbroath and Huntly.
The homes contain 66, 65 and 60 single, en suite, bedrooms respectively and they have a high ratio of private payers, which befits the quality of the care homes, operator and locations.
These care homes are all let to the existing operator Balhousie Care for a period of 30 years for an aggregate rent of approximately GBP1.1m which represents an initial yield in excess of seven per cent. The rent payable under these leases is subject to an annual uplift in line with the retail prices index subject to a cap and collar.
These properties are in accordance with the company's investment policy and the terms of this acquisition are consistent with the terms that were set out in the prospectus published by the company on 22 February 2013.
Balhousie is Scotland's largest private provider of residential care with over 800 highly dedicated staff devoted to around 800 residents in 22 residential care homes.
Target Healthcare recently raised GBP45.6m from institutional investors, wealth managers and private investors, and intends to have these funds fully invested by around October this year. The company is expecting to pay dividends on a quarterly basis, with an initial dividend of approximately 8p per share in respect of its first financial period to 30 June 2014 (which equates to a dividend yield of 6.0 per cent. per annum).
Kenneth MacKenzie, managing partner of Target Advisers, says: "We are delighted to have completed such an excellent acquisition in the same week as the company was admitted to Official List and to trading on the main market of the London Stock Exchange. This acquisition is typical of the investments the company intends to make. We are looking to acquire the buildings of care home operators that are best-in-class, operators who put the care and welfare of residents, and the staff who provide it, at the very heart of their management philosophy and we believe that there remains strong potential deal flow to invest the proceeds of the recent successful placing."

7 Spectacular Ways to Make a Difference for Animals
Celebrate Make a Difference Day by helping out some critters.
October 27 marks Make a Difference Day, a designated day that welcomes all gestures of kindness and philanthropic effort. There's no bad way to make a difference—soup kitchens, volunteering, or tutoring kids after school—but this year, we want to focus on our furry and feathered friends. We fall in love with our tail-wagging best friends, but what about the other voiceless animals that want to feel as much love as the family pooch? Here are seven great ways to improve the lives of animals ranging from homeless cats to circus elephants that will only take a little of your October 27.
1. Play online games. You heard me right! Justin Bieber and Ellen DeGeneres have recently backed the beyond brilliant game Joy Kingdom, which allows people to play a Facebook-based game while helping out real animals. Every time you earn "joy," Sojo Studios (the gaming company behind Joy Kingdom) will contribute to The Humane Society of the United States, Best Friends Animal Society, and Farm Sanctuary, thanks to DeGeneres and Bieber's support. Joy Kingdom is taking multi-tasking (and being charitable) to a new dimension.
2. Got a friend's birthday coming up? Or want to get a jumpstart on your holiday shopping? Maybe you just want to treat yourself to a little something-something. Check out leather-free luxury retailer Matt and Nat to outfit your winter-weather wardrobe. Japanese Paper Damon bag in cognac? Yes, please. With a 100-percent recycled nylon lining and the most affordable high-end vegan leather around, you cannot go wrong. Opting for faux-leather instead of animal hide makes your fashion sense kinder and free from animal-cruelty.
3. Peruse change.org and see how many petitions you can find to sign that stand for a great cause. Currently, ilovedogs.com writer Laura Goldman is putting together thousands of John Hancock's to release a sick and elderly elephant, Sarah, from the Ringling Brothers Circus. So far, Goldman has garnered more than 14,000 supporters and you could be the one that helps this petition meet its 25,000-signature goal. Animal-welfare group Mercy For Animals is also asking change.org visitors to back its petition against Burger King to stop torturing dairy cows at its supplier's farm, Bettencourt Dairies.
4. Swap your ultra extravagant dinner out on the town with a donation to the charity of your choice. We're really loving all of the work that The Vampire Diaries actor Ian Somerhalder is doing for his namesake charity and animal-rescue, The Ian Somerhalder Foundation, for all it is doing for the animals, youth, and environment. The animal-friendly actor's foundation aims to empower the youth overcoming behavioral problems through interspecies interaction as well as help animals that have been mistreated, abandoned, and abused.
5. Find a local shelter and volunteer in whatever department bests suits your skills. Help all of the forgotten kitties and pups, not to mention all of the other shelter creatures, and make their day brighter. Note: If you just so happen to fall in love with one of the animals and end up adopting, don't blame us. We're just going to say we-told-you-so right now.
6. Visit an animal sanctuary. Lucky for these animals, they have already been rescued from slaughterhouses and abuse, but that doesn't mean they don't need more affection from visitors. Plus, on most sanctuaries' websites, you can search for volunteer and intern opportunities.
7. Last but not least, encourage your friends to go vegan for a day (or more!). Also, if you have not made the meat- and dairy-free commitment yet, now is the best time to do it. Meat-free days don't only belong on Mondays—going vegan on Make a Difference Day will help you live up to the national holiday's name in more ways than one. Already eating plant-based? Take your love for animals beyond the plate by making sure to update your makeup and skincare products so that they are vegan-friendly, too.
Extend your generosity and open your heart to the animals that can't ask for help but need it so immensely. It's easy to make a difference for animals today and every day!

If you still haven't heard about the developer chat on IRC with Flagship Studios, you missed your chance to participate in it. However never fear as all the questions were compiled together and published for all to see on the official Hellgate London website!
Earlier today, Flagship Studios had its first developer chat since the game's launch via IRC with more than 250 Hellgate: London fans present for the majority of the event. Bill Roper, Erich Schaefer, Dave Glenn, Phil Shenk, and others fielded questions across a range of topics including game balancing, patches, and future content. While the chat was to last for less than an hour originally, the staggering attendance kept the event going for 80 minutes during which 36 questions were answered.
Even after the chat event ended, a few of the participating developers lingered in #flagshipstudios to answer a few more questions and mingle with the Hellgaters. More than 300 questions were asked over the course of the event. With how wildly popular this developer chat was, you can bet we'll be doing more of them in the near future!

for those that missed the goals...they were two ********ing beauties!!! Hamsik's goal is AMAZING!!! http://www.dailymotion.com/video/xqdhxd_lecce-vs-napoli-0-2-goals-highlights_sport?search_algo=1
in his own net! lol, not funny really, g'nit sport, juve just given a bullshit penalty, cesena player blocked the ball with his arm but it was well outside the box, just like i said way too many decisions going juves way, seams like someone wants them to win the scudetto, oh and justice was done as pirlo hit the post and it then cleared
I just saw what he did at around 6.30 in this video http://www.dailymotion.com/video/xqdjvu_lecce-napoli-0-2-auriemma-ampia-sintesi-hq-25-04-2012-napolifanstube_sport?from_fb_popup=1&error_reason=user_denied&error=access_denied&error_description=The+user+denied+your+request.#_= He's been having more and more mistakes like that recently, i thought he was a solid gk in the first half of this season but recently he's not looked very convincing. what has to happened him?
lol, how come nobody mentioned this from the match? https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?v=238120746295486 De Sanctis gets angry sometimes but he always sorts it out.
his quality is definitely gone down...but I really think much has to do with the quality of our D...he's made some very QUESTIONABLE moves this year though...we should begin looking for a replacement ASAP...
[ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Filfd48UTTY"]Lecce Napoli 0-2 Auriemma Ampia Sintesi 25-04-12 - YouTube[/ame]
I agree 100%. I think this has been his worst season as a Napoli player. Not just the mistakes that he makes but he seems to have taken a drop in confidence because he seems to have zero presence in the box. He never comes out to claim corners which is something that we are crying out for. Also he has left in shots that I think De Sanctis of last season would have saved.

Escape: Sardinia Dispatch
Some of our members are connoisseurs of beach villas, be they in Thailand, the Turks and Caicos or Brazil. Indagare founder Melissa Bradley first thought of them when she recently toured the brand-new villas on Sardinia's Costa Smeralda. With incredible sensitivity to the natural surroundings, the architects and designers created stunning hideaways at Romazzino and Pitrizza that blend into the resorts and yet offer a quantum leap in luxury. And, certo, they are a stone's throw away from the island's beautiful beaches and emerald sea. In sum, they capture the best of Sardinia. Read More
Just Back From... Bali
Thanks to books like Eat, Pray, Love and troves of honeymooners, the Indonesian island of Bali has become almost a caricature of itself, and parts of it have sadly fallen to global gentrification. But, as Indagare's Barkley Hickox recently found on a trip, the destination can still be a far-flung paradise—you only have to know where to look (and book). It helps that Indonesia is ground zero for Aman Resorts, whose philosophy of destination-specific, understated luxury was born here. In the course of 10 days, Barkley explored every corner of Bali and beyond, traveling to a romantic spot in Central Java and "glamping" in the jungles of the Moyo nature reserve. Read More

Rome itself is a work of art," said Woody Allen, whose latest film, To Rome with Love, is beautifully set in the Italian capital. A work of art, surely, but one that is totally accessible. There's little roped-off in Rome, in fact many of the city's most exquisite treasures, from Berninis to Caravaggios, are displayed in unassuming churches and palazzi.

There's nothing more American than blue jeans, except that most of them are made in China, Mexico and just about every place else but America.
The exception is Round House Workwear, which has been making making jeans in Shawnee, Okla., since 1903, when it began outfitting railroad workers.
The company gets its denim from cotton mills in Texas, and its buttons and zippers from a company in Georgia.
This week, I talked to David Antosh, a third-generation jeans makers whose grandfather acquired Round House in the 1960s.
He's proof we can still make things in America – even in the textile industry which faded away in America decades ago.
"A lot of people assume that nobody makes jeans here in the U.S.," Antosh says. "If it were impossible, we wouldn't be here."

The small clandestine team is headed up by the mysterious Director a 70 something uber intellectual whos father founded the Dadaist movement. Avoiding direct publicity the team has sought streetwear as an unlikely vehicle for bringing their ideas beyond the academic realm and into popular culture.
In his vision for the Imaginary Foundation, the Director knew that the human mind has more than one mode, that indeed it has an ecology of being. He knew that imagination, intuition, inspiration are basic to psyche. . . . A philosophy of research began to form: imagination as fundamental to all learning; artistic making as a model of integrating vision, materials, structure, and imagery.
What makes true vision is the poetry of life and the richness of nature
The Foundations basis has been a strong sense of community, free inquiry, creativity, and the experimental spirit. Over the years the Foundation has generated a critical mass of creative people in many different fields, for whom its been a catalyst for experimentation and innovation.
The Imaginary Foundation is a crazy and magical place, and the electricity of its members seems to make for a wonderfully charged atmosphere, so that sometimes before sessions one becomes excited and a little anxious, as though a thunderstorm were sweeping in.

Lies, Damned Lies and Big Data
This is a guest-post by David Hales, a fellow associate of the new think-tank, Synthesis, who specialises in computational social science. This is a thoughtful response to the rise in big data, and some of the more outlandish claims made about it – see for example, Chris Anderson's piece 'The Data Deluge Makes the Scientific Method Obsolete'. I think there is some real relevance for development approaches to big data here.Almost everything we do these days leaves some kind of data trace in some computer system somewhere. When such data is aggregated into huge databases it is called "Big Data". It is claimed social science will be transformed
