Bajaj Discover 100 T Drum Overview
Bajaj Auto has successfully created historic examples by creating exceptional brand value for its products as it can be seen how the Pulsar and Discover bikes have carved out a niche for themselves in the Indian motorcycle industry. Over the last decade Bajaj Auto has easily maintained its grip over its 40 per cent market share in the 125 cc and above segments. Bajaj Discover, the younger sibling of legendary Bajaj Pulsar easily stepped into its elder siblings shoes by becoming the public favorite number one. Bajaj Discover carries the tag of an econo-centric bike while being one of the best value-for-money bike. This argument came true in September, 2012 when the Discover 100 DTS-Si made history by taking away the honor of world's largest selling motorcycle from the Hero MotoCorp Splendor, with a whooping sales figure of 1.22 lakh against Splendor's 1.21 lakh. However, the Splendor tooke back its position in the very next month and still contines to reign in the segment. Hero MotoCorp has always kept an edge over its competitors by keeping a 65 percent market share in the 100 cc and 110 cc segment. But, overwhelmed with such a positive response from its buyers, Bajaj went on building up the brand Discover more strong and it brought in a new variant, Bajaj Discover 100 T. And with this bike Bajaj Auto is armed with three 100 cc commuter bikes in the segent for taking on the number one spot from Hero MotoCorp.
Bajaj Discover 100 T Drum Designing
Bajaj Discover 100 T is probably the best looking commuter bike in its segment. It takes its design cues from its elder sibling, Discover 125 ST. The fuel tank, headlamps, seat placement, side panels and wheels are exactly similar to the Discover 125 ST. But, the differences lie in chassis, suspension and engine and the "T" in its name represents touring concept. The frontal portion carries a neat and fine bikini fairing carving which consists twin parking lights and a brilliant headlamp bulb which is powered by a DC power supply for illuminating the way ahead properly even at lower speeds. The aggressive stance of headlight is very well supported by trendy and stylish turn indicators for creating a curvaceous and uber cool look. The fuel tank inherits the same design and structural pattern from the 125 ST and is a perfect addition to the motorcycle's overall huge stance. However, the bike holds a change in its chain cover, which is a full chain guard, the mono shock suspension system is replaced by the Nitrox suspension along with a long mudguard at the rear.
Colors of Bajaj Discover 100 T Drum Engine & Performance
Bajaj has powered the Discover 100 T with a 102 cc DTS-i, 4-valve, 4-stroke, air-cooled engine. This engine thrusts out anatomizing power amount of 10bhp at 9000 RPM and a peak torque value of 9.2Nm at 6500 RPM. Thus, its not only the amazing looks of the Discover 125 ST, which gives it an image of a powerful performer and it is mainly the smooth and top-class throttle response of the engine which will put the Discover 100 T above its arch rivals like Hero MotoCorp Splendor and Hero MotoCorp Passion series. Bajaj engineers have really worked hard upon incorporating a better and fine air intake system than its elder sibling for improving the NVH levels. This powerful engine is mated up with a 5-speed transmission system and Bajaj has deployed smooth 5-up gear shift pattern. The company has kept the gear box a little clumsy for generating better gear ratios to deliver fine gear shift quality.
Bajaj Discover 100 T Drum Braking & Handling
Bajaj Discover 100 T is equipped with some of the class leading braking and suspensions mechanisms. The Braking system on this commuter comprises of drum brakes on both the ends. The front tyre carries with itself a 130mm drum brakes and a 110mm drum brake is placed on the rear tyre for bringing down this powerful 100 cc commuter to an instant halt even at high speeds. The braking mechanism is combined with 2.75 x 17" mm tyre up on the front and a 3.00 x 17" mm wide tyre at the rear, for giving a better grip, stability and control to the rider. The front forks are tuned in for better maneuverability on the Indian roads.
Bajaj Discover 100 T Drum Safety Features
This bike does not stands on the back foot when it comes to safety features. Appropriate attention has been paid for arming the Discover 100 T with high-class safety features. Bajaj has deployed a conventional 30 mm telescopic fork shock absorber on the front, which is mated with Nitrox shock absorbers on the rear. This brilliant shock absorbing mechanism gulps down most of the jerks and jolts while traveling though the bumpy tracks. Thus, the rider and the pillion have not to worry about getting plagued with backaches while going on for long hour journeys. Therefore, the overall riding experience is enhanced by the inclusion of modern day technologies, which the buyers still find absent in most of the 100 cc bikes.
Bajaj Discover 100 T Drum Pros
Impressive mileage, low price, stylish, Attractive, large fuel tank, perfect seating posture
Bajaj Discover 100 T Drum Cons
Lack of disc brakes, slightly overweighted than its competitors, which weigh less by almost 10 kgs and hence the bike gets a bit lower power to weight ratio.

For over 30 years, the South Berkshire Concert Series has brought extraordinary musical experiences to the Simon's Rock campus and Berkshire region. Organized by faculty member Larry Wallach, the series hosts a wide variety and styles ranging from classical to contemporary to jazz to genres from across the globe. Recent acclaimed performers include pianists Peter Serkin, Gilbert Kalish, and Frederic Chiu; the Colorado, Lydian, Hawthorne, and Bard Festival Quartets; Triple Helix Piano Trio; the Walden Chamber Players; and the Prometheus and Simon's Rock's own Piano Quartets. The series also presents an annual solo piano recital to honor the memory of Frederick R. Reynolds, a trustee of the College who made it possible to acquire the extraordinary Hamburg Steinway model D that is housed in the Daniel Arts Center.
This fall, the South Berkshire Concert series opened in September with the 2009 Harpsichord Festival. A concert for multiple instruments featuring Bach and Vivaldi, solos spanned from the late Renaissance to the late Baroque. Larry Wallach, Christine Gevert, Mariken Palmboom, and William Carragan all played on handmade instruments by local harpsichord maker, Carl Dudash. After the concert, attendees were given an opportunity to speak with the musicians and instrument maker and get a close-up look at some of the unique designs.
In October, the fall series continued with soprano Hai-Ting Chinn and the Proteus Ensemble in Arnold Schoenberg's seminal work, "Pierrot Lunaire." This twentieth-century masterpiece of symbolism and surrealism was portrayed expertly by the Proteus ensemble who leant itself seamlessly to the pieces beauty, humor, poetry, and satire.
On April 18, the 2009/2010 series concludes with the Walden Chamber Players, who are returning after an acclaimed appearance here at the College in 2007. This innovative ensemble of flute, harp, and strings will perform works by Roussel, Krenek, Rands, Hindemith, and Beethoven. According to the Chamber Music America Magazine, "A season spent with the Walden Chamber Players is a time for discovery."

Ai Yazawa's work is so distinctive that no one could mistake Nana as being written by anyone else. While the series isn't perfect, it can be considered to be one of the frontrunners of modern shoujo romance. I emphasize modern because of how backward and traditional other romance anime seems when compared to Yazawa's work. While other shoujo series... read more

Zero significance but attach whatever belief comforts you.
said the medicore mind!
Well it could simply be a coincidence. Or it could be symbolic of the Circle of Life: Karma replacing a life taken with a new life begun. It all depends on what meaning you want to take from it. I'm sure every person will come up with an answer of their own.
It's nothing more than coincidence, but if it inspires you to love your baby more, mazel tov. But if the anniversary was the death of a unloved, criminal relative, would you be worried that the child would be influenced by THAT person?

Far better to recognize that everybody has to die and be born on some day or another and there are only 365 days to choose from.

My best friend was born on 9/11/57. She had a lot of good birthdays before her special day became a national day of mourning. Does it 'mean' anything that that was the day the terriorist chose? No, it was a date that worked for them. I'm sure they'd be happy if they thought they'd ruined her day for the rest of her life. But they are two unrelated events. Like the death of your dear father, and the birth of your beloved daughter.
Since the birth rate is greater than the death rate in the world. The day, hour, minute, second your baby is born someone somewhere has just died. If your looking for a rebirth of someones spirit, really who would want that. Once you get to leave this world why comeback with no memory or knowledge and do it randomaly all over again.
It means whatever you want it to mean.
Hmmm, interesting thing to happen. Not sure of significance, but it would seem like a memorial of sorts, strange as that may sound.
Read 'Summer to Die'. It is a children's book I first read in 5th grade and tops as one of my all time favorite books even at age 40 and has saw me through a lot of horrible things in life. It is tenderly written and the whole book is a story on the exact subject you are speaking of. It will leave you not with an explanation but a peace about it all, and your own deep understanding.
My personal belief is that a person comes back into this world. If your father wanted to hang around after his old body died and wait for you to be pregnant again to be your child, he could have done that. But I don't know how much causation a person has on the date they are born.

My youngest son is, we think, his father's mother, who died 5 months before he was born.

Off the market
3/31 - I'm currently off the market. Hey there, I'm David, a Floridian who finds himself in Washington and wondering where the sun went. Put simply, I like fun places, staying active, and good conversation! I enjoy cooking, checking out exotic restaurants, trying new things daily, and seeing the world. I'm a city boy at heart but I'm slowly learning to enjoy the great outdoors (favorite activities are basketball, bouldering, kayaking, and skiing). Lurking deep within me is a stand-up comic trying to burst its way out. I don't shy away from sarcasm or playful jokes; fun conversation is a must! I'm very close with immediate family, we love to have holiday get-togethers and family nights out (or in) with tons of food and lively banter. If I've messaged you it's because I saw more than just a pretty smile on your face. I was raised to treat women with reverence and respect... but that doesn't mean I won't sarcastically poke fun at you from time to time :P I'm looking for a relationship that is driven by honesty, laughter and communication. I want someone who is extremely passionate, dedicated to doing what she loves, and can be a partner in crime for traveling the world, cuddling up to a movie on a lazy Sunday, and yapping about intellectual topics with levity.

It's like tires.....a compromise
Does it help with the life of the output shaft?
My belief is that output shaft wear is directly related to chain tension. And, to be on the safe side I'm only using Honda CS sprockets. I have no way to test the hardness (Rockwell number) of the "hardened" aftermarket sprockets so I'm hoping that Honda is smart enough to have made their CS sprockets just a bit softer than the shaft. No way to tell with the others.
I think that's the best you can do other than just keeping your eye on it.
On chain oilers:
I built my own (cheap) version chain oiler and after 2 years of use I think I can provide some information.
When compared to my son's Transalp ridden in almost identical conditions my conclusions are:
Chain oilers do NOT significantly improve the life of a high quality X-ring chain as long as reasonable lubing and care is taken of the chain.
Where the chain oiler did make a significant different is in the wear of the sprockets. My CS sprocket lasted about 1.5 times as long as the manually lubed bike. My rear sprocket still looks almost new after 2 chains.
The disadvantage.....the chain oiler makes more of a mess. You'll get lube splatters on your spokes, rear tire and rim and a bit more goo around the CS sprocket. This is not a problem and it easily wipes off with a rag. It does help to preserve the finish of the rear spokes. It's also nice to just reach down and turn the oiler on after a dusty gravel road rather than fooling around with spray bottles and cans of lube at fuel stops.

Federal highway bill set to expire, Obama urges extension
The White House said Obama wanted to push for the transportation bill extensions now in order to avoid a similar standoff again. The looming shutdown was overshadowed by the all-consuming debt debate in Washington, and the president didn't start publicly pushing for an extension until after the FAA had already partially shut down.
Looking to take a different approach this time around, the White House gathered construction workers and administration officials in the Rose Garden Wednesday morning so the president could attempt to get ahead of the issue. He was also flanked by the leaders of two occasionally warring factions — AFL-CIO President Richard Trumka and David Chavern, chief operating officer of the U.S. Chamber of Commerce.
Republican reaction to Obama's push for the highway bill was swift, with a spokesman for House Speaker John Boehner accusing the president of using irresponsible scare tactics.
"Aside from the president today, no one has suggested the highway bill will be allowed to expire," Boehner spokesman Brendan Buck said. "Republicans support an extension of the highway bill and appreciate the need for a long-term solution for infrastructure projects."
The push for infrastructure spending comes as Obama prepares to unveil a jobs package next week that mixes spending and tax breaks. The White House said Obama would make the case for his new initiatives Wednesday before a joint session of Congress.
The president's jobs package is expected to include some proposed spending on infrastructure and public works projects, investments that Obama said Wednesday are vital to nation's economy.
"We have to have a serious conversation about making real, lasting investments in infrastructure from better ports to a smarter electric grid to high speed rail," Obama said. "At a time when interest rates are low and workers are unemployed, the best time to make those investments is now, not once another levee fails or another bridge falls. Right now is when we need to be making these decisions."

Baseball Defeated by Delaware
CHARLESTON, S.C. – Despite a strong debut by junior right-hander Sean Carley, the West Virginia University baseball team fell 3-1 to Delaware on Saturday evening.
Carley took the no-decision and did not allow a run, giving up just two hits in 6.0 innings. Carley struck out five batters without issuing a walk.
West Virginia (0-2) had 10 hits to Delaware's five, while the Mountaineers committed one error.

Delaware used a three-run seventh inning to take a 3-1 lead. Ty Warrington doubled to left center field, driving in two runs, and Jake Clark executed a successful squeeze play to score Warrington from third base.
The loss went to sophomore righty Ryan Hostrander, who allowed two runs, one earned, on one hit without recording an out. Junior righty Michael Bennett finished the game for West Virginia, giving up just one hit in 2.2 innings and striking out three.
Dan Gatto picked up the win for Delaware after going 6.2 innings and allowing one run on nine hits. The save was awarded to Luke Alicknavitch after pitching 2.1 scoreless innings.

They're comfortable and so flattering on my legs. They are a little pricey but a total investment piece they can work in any season! These are a must have. 12.8.2013
Rated 4 out of 5Â by LuluFPUV delightfully sexy These shoes, wow! They look good. They fit true to size. I am a size 8 and they fit great. The only reason I gave them 4 stars is because they have absolutely no padding for the balls of your feet. I haven't tried yet but I may try to add some sort of padding. This probably wont work though because the chain like detail going across the top of the foot is tight and leaves no extra room for padding underneath. ANYWAY--these shoes are super sexy but you probably don't want to wear them if you're going to be out at all hours of the night. Def not to walk around vegas...yikes. 8.23.2013
Rated 5 out of 5Â by p1gp3n HAWT! i'm always a 8 and ordered the 8, and i find them to fit true to size and not too tight. these are probably not gonna be your most comfy pair of heels, but they could potentially be your hottest ones. i got the black and they look just as pictured - super stylish and edgy. the zipper at the back is perfect for me as i'm too lazy for ties and these look awesome and are convenient to put on and off. the heel height and the arch is not crazy so that part is not a problem. but as the foot bed is not padded, these are not gonna be that comfy if you have to stand or walk for an extended period of time. but they look so good it's worth it! 6.17.2013
Rated 5 out of 5Â by happyfeet Love these! I have the "white" suede ones in size 8, which seem only slightly smaller than another size 8 might be. These are beautiful sandals, edgy and comfortable too! The white, however, is more of a cream color, not the bright white they appear on my computer screen. These will go with dresses and jeans, and look sharp! My feet are happy in these! 6.14.2013
Rated 5 out of 5Â by cagirl92 lovely shoe Normally Jeffrey Campbell shoes run a tad large for me. I ordered a size 6 in these and they fit perfectly! This is wonderful news for people who have smaller feet like me. I would say if you are between half sizes order the larger one. You can always add a small shoe pad if they are too large. These shoes are so beautiful and stylish. They can be worn with anything. I always get compliments when I wear them. You won't regret buying this! 5.30.2013
Rated 3 out of 5Â by Nuraluralura Runs Small, Sad They Didn't Work I ordered the black. I've never had a problem with Jeffrey Campbell sizes, but these I could barely get my foot in! Once in (somewhat), I couldn't zip the back up. My feet are pretty small (size 7) and not particularly wide. I'm worried that sizing up would be the opposite problem, so am utterly disappointed these didn't work. They're super cute... though the heel doesn't feel very sturdy. 5.22.2013
Rated 4 out of 5Â by NiJo Lovely off white color but a little tight Shipping was awful! The shoe box containing the shoes were just put into a very large box which caused the shoes to tumble around freely in transit. They would have been ruined if they weren't in the dust bags! The shoe box was ruined, though, which is disappointing considering I keep them. That being said, they are SO cute, and super stylish. The metal is more of a distressed gold, so it's not as bright and shiny as your average gold color. The shoes are also a wonderful off-white, with almost a slight greyish tint - they aren't as white in person as they are in the photos. I do have slightly wider feet so the 6.5 was a little tight, but not uncomfortable. I am positive they'll loosen after some breaking in. Sizing up wasn't an option with this style of shoe for me, as when strappy heels are loose, they tend to rub my skin raw within an hour. -1 star for the horrid shipping. 5.15.2013

Yet Another Threat to Social Security
Well, there is no dearth of second-guessing along with obituaries for the Republican Party. But it's my experience that when something big changes - which is what happened in this election - it takes some time and distance to make useful sense of it.
So even though it is tempting to join the chorus, I'm going to hit you with something we know for sure is looming on the immediate horizon – another threat to current and future elders' Social Security, this time via the fiscal cliff.
Yeah, yeah, your eyes glaze over. Mine too, so I'll keep this as short as possible.
The fiscal cliff is an agreement (caused by Congressional Republicans who, in 2011, refused to raise the debt ceiling without it) to trigger massive tax increases and spending cuts unless there is a plan to balance the budget by the last day of 2012.
No such plan has materialized so unless Congress does something between now and the end of the year, the law will go into effect on 1 January causing an estimated average tax increase of $3500 per American family, according to the bipartisan Tax Policy Center.
Further, reports the Washington Post,
"The federal government will enact a 10 percent across-the-board spending cut, forcing it to lay off workers and cancel contracts to meet the 'sequestration' targets that are set in law.
"Everything from federal meat-inspectors to NASA rocket scientists would face the budget axe. So too, would federal aid to states, as well as money used to hire teachers and boost police and fire departments."
If you can believe what you read in WaPo, Congressional Republicans have spent the past few weeks trying to devise a compromise.
"But any such deal, they say, would hinge on Obama's willingness to rein in the cost of federal entitlement programs, including Social Security and Medicare, the biggest drivers of future borrowing."
Oh dear. During his first administration, President Obama made it a habit, in budget discussions, to OFFER cuts to Social Security cost-of-living increases which would be a huge burden over time to retirees, especially women.In this immediate budgetary crisis,
"The question, said former White House economist Jared Bernstein, is what Democrats would be willing to give Republicans in return for prying them away from the influence of anti-tax activist Grover Norquist, who has maintained firm discipline among GOP lawmakers.
"'I'm sure they're going to ask for something big,' said Bernstein, now a senior fellow at the Center on Budget and Policy Priorities. 'I think Republicans would value something on Social Security as a real trophy.'"
Right. Stick it to old people and the poor again. The fiscal cliff clock is ticking. Congress reconvenes next week. We – elders – have our work cut out for us on Social Security. Stay tuned.
At The Elder Storytelling Place today, Marcy Belson: The Long Night of October 27-28, 2012

You say the average is $3500/family but given the significant increase for millionaires I wonder what the median increase. If you tax a billionaire an additional $2 million, that spread out over everyone distorts the "average".
I really don't think a 10% budget cut is draconian. It is not a "sky is falling" scenario. I would love to see a 10% cut every year for at least five years for our military budgets. We spend more than almost the rest of the world combined!! If we would just turn in our resignation as "policemen of the world" we could save much more than that.
Social security needs tweaking. Move the age out some and do a couple percent adjustments on both income and benefits and it would be self-sustanible for fifty years.
Sorry RJ, but across the board 10% budget cuts is not a good idea. Some essential programs are knife edge thin as it is. Closing down entire programs would be more honest rather than crippling every program.
I'll pay any attention to "bargains" when I see politicians START by erasing (not just raising) the cap on income subject to Social Security tax. People who make over $110,000 annually are doing fine. They can stop being exempted from paying further Social Security taxes on their earnings!
RJ is right. Social Security is not the problem. Minor adjustments can make it solvent.
Medicare is the problem. Or, more accurately, the entire Medical Industrial Complex in the US is the problem. The cost of medical care is rising, on average, 9.3% per year. Mathematically this cannot continue forever.
Unfortunately, as long as we are completely dependent on Mideast oil, we cannot turn in our badge as policemen of the world.
It's insulting for Seniors to be made the scapegoats in the budget crisis. If the money we have paid in the last 40 years hadn't been looted by self-serving politicians this would be a non-issue.
Ronnie: Finally, the AARP has gotten on board opposing any changes to Cost of Living (COLA) formulas for Social Security recipients. You may recall that the Erskine-Bowles Commission recommended that for the sake of deficit reduction, the existing method for calculating the COLA be replaced with a lower benefit "chained" COLA method, known as the CCPI.
According to this morning's Huffington Post, Barry Rand, AARP CEO, stated in a letter to lawmakers, "On behalf of millions of members nationwide and all Americans age 50 and older, AARP writes to reiterate our opposition to adopting a chained consumer price index to calculate the Social Security cost of living adjustment for the purpose of reducing the deficit."
The Obama administration recently announced that the COLA for next year will increase Social Security benefits by 1.7%. Mr. Rand stated in his letter that "If Congress had already adopted CCPI, the 2013 COLA would be even less, at only 1.4 percent. However, adopting a chained consumer price index to calculate Social Security COLAs is not a small benefit change -- it will compound benefit reductions dramatically over time, resulting in an annual benefit that is roughly $1,000 (2012 dollars) lower by the time a beneficiary reaches age 85."
I am normally not a cheerleader for AARP politics, but this time I have to hand it to Mr. Rand for finally taking a position in favor of his membership, and not his organization's bottom line.
I have a pension which is a little over $52000/yr., gross. Single. Under 65. Standard deductions. If Obama lets the tax cuts expire, I'll pay around $600 more in fed tax per year. I really don't think the average retired over-65 couple, standard deductions, is going to be paying $3500 more in fed taxes per year. Let's not panic here. However, the BIG problem is that Obama doesn't care about senior citizens, SS, and Medicare, and there is nothing we can do to change it. (I think Romney would have been ever harder on us.) Now THAT is something to be upset about.
Here we go again. Social Security does NOT contribute one penny to the deficit. Leave it alone.
If our lawmakers were dedicated to common sense instead of having to raise re-election money all of the time they might become practical and do two things that would change the dynamics of our deficit. 1) If they would enact a single payer health care system it would go a long way toward eliminating the drain on the budget for health care. 2) If they would cut the military budget in half we would still be able to police the parts of the world where it is necessary to have a presence. We could close bases that are no longer needed. For example, the cold war is over. Why do we need bases in Germany?
Our priorities are out of whack because of ideology and habit. It's time to look at the entire budget and not just the ones the ideologues want to eliminate.
On Charlie Rose Weds, Nov. 7th, David Brooks had the audacity to address the true problem in the budget which is end of life care in Medicare. He said it wasn't the dying who are demanding ongoing pointless treatment, it's their families. And they do it because they don't want to deal with the guilt of saying 'Let him or her go', but mostly because they don't have to pay for it!
If everyone over 65 would fill out a directive and have their children acknowledge their wishes, this travesty might be minimized.
I'm not talking about a 75 year old with treatable pneumonia - I'm talking about those of us with intractable, severe health conditions that will end our lives with or without extraordinary measures by the medical community.
This is a harsh subject but death is not optional, nor is it the taxpayer's duty to keep us alive with breathing machines and feeding tubes.
Excellent post and comments. I agree that the cost of health-care is the problem, not the cost of Medicare per se.
A recent report by the Institute of Medicine discussed enormous costs associated with fraud, medical error, huge profits by surgeons and medical-device manufacturers when certain procedures with questionable benefit are done, and other factors.
I also agree that there needs to be far more discussion of end-of-life care, no matter who pays for it. And yet every time the topic comes up, there are cries of "rationing" of healthcare and hints of bureaucratic "death panels".
It is a never-ending nightmare.
How about a 10% increase in Social Security benefits for every citizen who signs and maintains a "Living Will" or directive limiting life prolonging procedures when patient is terminal.
While were at it, now that we really are in the 21st century with life expectancy edging close to 80, how about setting retirement age at 70 and blowing the "contributions cap" at $100K? And draw the line in the sand right there. No other cuts or changes under pain of death for anyone who even suggests any.
From FactCheck.org:
"Some senior Democrats are claiming that Social Security does not contribute "one penny" to the federal deficit. That's not true. The fact is, the federal government had to borrow $37 billion last year to finance Social Security, and will need to borrow more this year. The red ink is projected to total well over half a trillion dollars in the coming decade."
So could someone explain to me how SS is not part of the problem just because people pay into the system? When I recently started taking early retirement, it was reported to me that my contributions and those of my employers totaled about $85,000 for the 44 years that I worked. (Many of those years were part-time while raising children) I am collecting about $11,000 a year, which began a few months ago, at age 62. I had not planned to start taking benefits this soon, but was in a situation where it became necessary. The piece of imformation that's missing is what the contributions plus earnings on them may have totaled before I began drawing on them, but even without that figure, its seems to me that I most likely will exceed what was paid in plus interest if I live to the average life expectancy today. Many people are currently living beyond today's life expectancy. My father-in-law, who passed away two years ago at age 90 was receiving a little over $1,000 monthly. He retired from a relatively middle income job at age 62, in 1982. I don;t know what he made each year while working, nor his SS income for each of his years of retirement, but if he averaged just half of what the benefit was at his death, he would have collected $168,000. It seems to me that's likely to be a much higher figure than what he and his employers had paid in during his 36 years of employment from 1946 to 1982 plus interest. Could someone who has actuarial experience explain how it is that SS pays for itself? I understand of course that many people don't live long enough to even collect what they may have paid in, but these days it seems that the reverse of that is often the case.Longer life spans, low interest rates, and the number of boomers entering the system seem to not bode well for the solvency of this program. Where are the flaws in this logic?
Cathy: This may explain why the SSA Trust Fund has to "borrow" (the $37 billion you mentioned) to make their guaranteed payments.
The Social Security Trust Fund (hereafter, The Fund) has run a surplus since its inception in the 1930's. By law, income to The Fund must be invested, on a daily basis, in Federal Government securities (i.e. Bonds) that guarantee both principal and interest. All bonds held by the Trust Fund are "special issues" of the United States Treasury. These bonds are available only to the Social Security trust fund (that is, they are not "marketable" Treasury bonds available to the general public). Further, unlike marketable bonds, special issues can be redeemed by The Fund at any time at face value, whereas Marketable bonds are subject to the forces of the open market and may suffer a loss, or enjoy a gain, if sold before maturity. Investment in these special issues gives The Fund the same flexibility as holding cash.
The surplus Social Security dollars used to buy these bonds goes into the US General Fund and are allocated by Congress to whatever need the Congress deems important - the military, new roads, Congressional boondoggles to far away places, etc.
Now, the funds to cover expenditures (i.e. benefit payments to the normal Social Security recipient) comes from the redemption or sale of the bonds held by The Fund. When these "special-issue" bonds are redeemed, interest is paid (in 2011 the average interest was a little over 2.4%). The principal amount of bonds redeemed, plus the corresponding interest, is just enough to cover an expenditure (again, the total benefit amount for all Social Security recipients).
Now here is where it gets sticky. Since Congress has been running deficits, the money used to "redeem" the social security has got to be borrowed by Congress from another source (usually by the sale of "Marketable" Treasury bonds). Therefore, The Fund is being paid back by Congress with borrowed funds in order to honor its obligation to redeem both principal and interest on the original investment by The Fund. Hence, you may hear erroneously in the press and elsewhere that The Fund has to "borrow" from Congress to meet its obligations.
In a nutshell, all The Fund is doing is demanding back the money it "loaned" to Congress in order to meet its obligations.
I hope this makes it clearer that the $37 billion you mentioned may have been borrowed funds from Congress, but was not "borrowed" by The Fund.
Isn't it a fact that President Obama HASN'T submitted any budget proposals since he took office? Hasn't the U.S. operated on a budget before? Why is that impossible now? A balanced budget would be the answer to all these pending problems. With one, there would be no "fiscal cliff" to fall over. Change course ... Don't continue to run toward the cliff. Forward is still a possible direction but the course needs to change ... or else! If all the government services made a balanced budget their main goal, that would give it a single, unified purpose. Let that purpose serve as a temporary distraction for both sides and bring them together under the banner of national salvation. It's obvious that our country is still in peril. Our NEW president has plenty of experience. He should know HOW to get it done. YOU elected him, now tell his to get to work and prove himself to be worthy of all the trust you demonstrated in him. Personally, I expect only more of the same. I suppose, whatever the future holds, it will still be DUBYA's fault or some other scapegoat.
I do hope the House of Representatives most recent effort I've heard described in the news to once again "kick the can" down the road on the end of the year cliff hanger legislative issue is re-considered by them -- that the President presses for definitive, not partial, action by this year's end. The House Representatives want to delay action which seems to me to be little more than another deflecting effort to avoid honestly negotiating a resolution.
This is just the start of numerous issues we'll need to actively pursue to insure we have a truly viable health care system with Medicare and that Social Security is appropriately preserved. I think most of us recognized we would need to follow up on these issues no matter who won this election, but that the current administration was more aware and concerned about the needs of all citizen classes.
My professional work has required my intimate involvement with certain health care aspects associated with end of life decisions -- vents, feeding tubes. I certainly agree there is a need for health care directives and educating individuals to prepare them before they become ill. There's no guarantee they'll be followed as I've seen enough instances where family members have over-ruled them when a medical situation actually occurs. However, choices about feeding tubes, ventilators use is not always as simple as it may seem, nor is a person thinking they'll just stop eating and drinking to end their life if health circumstances warrant it.
I would be STRONGLY concerned that a cook book approach on care decisions based primarily on age be guarded against. I've weaned 90 yr old mentally sound patients from feeding tubes to successfully eating orally who've returned to living independently with their spouse for several more years. I've seen much much younger patients who've had no hope of eating orally again, who are not mentally alert whose family have wanted them continued to be tube fed and/or maintained on a vent and I've weaned patients on a vent to talking and eating -- in some cases there was no way to know for sure whether or not they might begin to recover when life support systems were put in place. There are so many variables and WORDING in directives is critical.
This may not come up until much later in Medicare health care adjustments, but keep it in mind for that time. Another wording area of major concern to me is the term "Elective" and the medical diagnoses plus criteria specified as such. This will be extremely significant in ensuring timely care -- especially for older patients -- when we get to health care. Delays in providing some medical procedures that might be described as "elective" could be medically detrimental for some (especially older patients) -- a situation lending itself to covert discriminatory adverse care by omission/delay by insurers/medical decision makers. (There are existing anecdotal accounts of such in nations with national health care systems. Some have suggested there have been similar instances occurring in this country beginning with the advent of HMOs.)
It's time to compromise, folks, and we elders perhaps ought to quit acting like the less-enlightened members of Congress and more like the greatest (or nearly greatest) generation.
A change to the chained CIP formula wouldn't be much of an impact on anyone IF it includes a floor that grandfathers those for whom any sort of benefit reduction is a hardship. I would suggest those whose incomes are 25 percent above the federal poverty guideline be excluded from the change, which should take care of that problem.
Going to the chained CPI would be a low-pain way to help immensely with our fiscal problems. It would rein in increases for federal retirees (I'm one of those as well as a social security recipient)and many others. For groups such as veterans (I'm also one of those, but get no benefits at all) a floor would protect those in real need.
Medicare is the real future drain on the treasury. Why not just raise the age to start receiving benefits one year? That would be hugely beneficial financially, while recognizing that we live longer and healthier lives nowadays.
I would fiercely resist any measures that attempt to privatize social security or medicare. That approach is utter nonsense, and brooks no compromises.
Thank you, Jim, for the detailed explanation of the source of shortfalls for The Fund. That is essentially what I thought, that The Fund was short due to raids on it to pay for other things. The same thing happens in state and local government at times, with funds that are supposedly sound and inviolable being tapped to cover other needs. It all leaves the problem, ultimately, of where, then, do the funds come from to pay back the raided funds? Bringing us back to the deficit and growing debt.
In reply to Clarence A. Bowles, Sr. I want to tell him that he has been listening to the wrong people. Here is the fact as reported from the Government Printing Office: "As per law, Obama has submitted a budget for each fiscal year he's been president -- fiscal years 2010, 2011 and 2012, , where the documents are posted."
I suggest that Clarence ask why the Republicans have not worked with him to finalize a budget since he was in office. The party of "No" have blocked every submission the president has offered.
And, I really hate to disillusion you Clarence, but the terrible economy started on Bush's watch. Two unfunded wars, an unfunded prescription program, and a huge tax cut for the 1% not only used up the surplus he started with, but got us trillion dollar deficit we now have. The blame has to lie with Bush. He is not a scapegoat. Facts are facts.

MY DAZ 3d STORE for Bryce & DAZ Studio Materials and Shaders
BRYCE ARENA News and resources for Bryce
I noticed that the search function began working back in July. But I don't think any mention was made of it. Probably because that was the same time that the archive site was further broken beyond usefulness.
I say that because, before July the forumarchive site was very responsive, and even though the images did not display, you could still find old posts fairly quickly.
After July, searching became functional, but every link that you click now is delayed 22 seconds before it loads. Now, while 22 seconds might seem trivial, if you need to click through several links to get to your destination, it quickly becomes very frustrating.
This 22 second delay is consistent throughout the archive site, and I suspect that it was introduced in a faulty attempt to restore the search function.
I really wish the developers would take a look at this problem. I've mentioned it several times on the forum, and so far no one from DAZ has chosen to comment on it.

You can see the images with some manipulation, although only one at a time. you take the postimages/origimage_1_3388917.jpg bit from the html image code in the post, and add it to http://forumarchive.daz3d.com/
so then you get http://forumarchive.daz3d.com/postimages/origimage_1_3388917.jpg
which will display the image if you click it

I get a 13 second delay when I click any of the links there. But lately the DAZ servers seem to be slow even when you're trying to shop - maybe because of the sale.
Roughly that, by 1-missisippi, I don't have a stopwatch handy.

But it did (and does) often fail when you click the 2nd page of author search results. At least when it's "All posts by".
I just refreshed my memory on that point, today…
I think it used to do that with a keyword+author search, but more rarely.

Faculty Scholarship 1994 - Present
A Comparison of the Financial Characteristics of Japanese Keiretsu and Non-Keiretsu Firms
The Japanese financial keiretsu system has recieved considerable attention in the U.S. business literature. A number of studies have investigated various aspects of the financial keiretsu practice in Japan and the impact of this system on the financial characteristics of Japanese firms. However, there are no studies that compare the overall financial characteristics of the keiretsu-affiliated firms and the independent firms. In this study we attempt such a comparision by using the parametric and non-parametric ANOVA (analysis of variance) techniques and a sample of 224 Japanese firms from 13 manufacturing industries. Due to their ability to borrow from the main bank of the keiretsu with liberal terms, the keiretsu-affiliated firms appear to have significantly higher debt ratios and lower liquidity ratios compared with the independent firms. The keiretsu-affiliated firms are generally larger than the independent firms with more institutional ownership. Although the independent firms ahve significantly higher operating profit margin and return on asset ratios, the return on equity ratios of the two groups of firms are not significantly different. There are also considerable similarities between the two groups of firms in terms of turnover ratios, growth ratios, and market ratios.
