Markov Chain Approximations For Term Structure Models
We derive discrete markov chain approximations for continuous state equilibrium term structure models. The states and transition probabilities of the markov chain are chosen effciently according to a quadrature rule as in Tauchen and Hussey (1991). Quadrature provides a simple yet method which can easily incorporates complication like non- normality, heteroskedasticity, and multiple factors. We use the extended Vasicek model of the term structure as an example for this procedure and compare its pricing efficiency and accuracy to the popular trinomial tree approximation of Hull and White (1990). We further illustrate, with numerical examples, the and effciency of this procedure in pricing interest rate options when the underlying interest rate has conditional non-normality and multiple factors.

HE'S an adventurer extraordinaire, a plucky pioneer and a dashing daredevil.
And when I met survival supremo Bear Grylls I found he had the infectious enthusiastic spirit of a fearless and wonder-filled child.
I met him at the launch of his new Channel 4 TV show The Island, which sees men aged from 21 to 70 from all walks of life endure the perils of the wilderness with no food, no water and no technology – as an experiment in whether modern man can cope in the wilds of nature.
He left the 13 men on a remote Pacific island for 28 days to see what would happen but feared they could come a cropper.
He was scared one of them would be dead within 10 minutes after they were stranded without outside help days in a supreme test of their survival skills.
"I was worried about people dying. Genuinely," Bear, 39, said.
"You let people loose with machetes and it's like, 'You almost took your knee off.' It's so easy to go like that – boom – and it's straight through the leg.
"You cut an arterial vein and you're dead within 10 minutes."
He continued: "I could've found the island they expected which was a beautiful Fijian paradise. But I wanted it to be about the hardship.
"What they got was a swamp – a crocodile, snake and scorpion-infested s***hole.
"It tests what they're made of. This was an experiment in trying to find some answers about modern man."
He continued: "Men totally feel emasculated at the moment.
"In olden days it was always clear – they used their speed, their agility and their brains, their resourcefulness and their courage. All that stuff made a man.
"Nowadays we've swapped the bow and arrow for the iPhone. It only uses a fraction of what it is to be a man.
"What I wanted to do – and I didn't know the answer to this – is if you strip man of everything – the microwave, the bed and all of this stuff that we take for granted – when pushed and the bravado's gone would they crumble or are the skills still somewhere in there?
"In the modern world what is masculinity?"
Bear has tested his manly mettle to the max via paramotoring in the Himalayas to martial arts training with a karate grandmaster in Japan, escapades with the SAS, and, at 23, being one of the youngest climbers to scale Everest.
And Bear – whose eyes glisten with verve – reckons it's all about your mind… and your heart.
"It's more important what's in your head and heart in these kind of situations," he said.
"The mental battles that these guys went through, I think they'll agree, were much tougher than their physical ones."
Bear gave the lads just one day's survival training before abandoning them.
"They had the clothes on their back, a couple of machetes, a couple of knives, water for a day and that's about it."
He said it was important they felt truly isolated and weren't just playing up for telly, which is why four of the group were embedded camera and sound crew.
"I wanted it to be really authentic. As soon as you put a TV camera in front of someone there's always that bravado so that's not a true indicator of what's really going on inside of people.
"You only get to know people when they're under pressure and they're being themselves.
"When you're vulnerable with people you create a bond. And where's there's a bond there's strength.
"If society started to live like some of these guys, you could totally change the world."
He added: "It's an accelerated course in manhood and I hope it's inspiring and encouraging."
I received an accelerated course in survival thanks to words of wisdom from Bear and a training session with his close pal Meg Hine – a mountaineer and expedition leader – in the tough terrain of the, erm, Channel 4 garden in the City of Westminster.
She taught me one of the most important things you need in a survival situation – how to create a fire.
Following your instinct is essential. Preparation is key. And it seems being in touch with your feminine side is crucial to thriving.
One of the major elements of her kit is a stash of tampons which, when smeared with Vaseline lip salve, become highly combustible.
She said: "They're one of the best things for starting a fire. And soldiers carry them in their kits because they're good for bullet wounds."
I created a fire from the lady accoutrements and bark I'd peeled off silver birches. I ignited it with flint and a flick of the wrist, then added knife-chopped kindling to get it roaring.
Meg then taught me a vital skill needed in ANY situation – how to brew up a cuppa.
We positioned metal receptacles in the roaring flames, added water – which we'd collect from rain or a nearby stream but which was from the Channel 4 canteen – and then sprinkled in some nutrient-packed leaves.
After that I settled down under the canopy erected between trees to enjoy my wild nettle tea, infused with a smoky aroma and bits of ash from the fire, and became one with my surroundings.
But while Meg and Bear can handle themselves in such solitary situations, they both admit that in the long run, humans are social creatures.
Meg said: "You can go three minutes without air, three days without water, three weeks without food and three months without company. We need other people around us."
And Bear said of the 13 men on the island: "The thing I really noticed with these guys by the end, above everything, was an incredible respect for each other as human beings.
"They've walked in each other's shoes a little bit and that's an amazing thing."
He added: "We need connection."
Sipping my tea, I mused on metaphysical poet John Donne's famous words: "No man is an island, entire of itself; every man is a piece of the continent, a part of the main."
Here are Bear's top survival tips:
"What's the most important quality in a tough, big, butch mountaineer? Kindness. That is not a word we associate with man is it? But it's incredibly butch to be kind on day 29 when you haven't eaten for 11 days. That is a man.
"What you really want from the people you are with is that they are kind.
"You want to be a great adventurer in life and in the mountains? It is simple: be kind."
"The Royal Marine Commandos with whom I worked a lot in my military days, have the phrase 'cheerfulness in adversity' as one of their founding principles and it is a great one to live by.
"It is easy to be cheerful when everything is going like a song, but the real time to be cheerful is when everything is going dead wrong!
"My dad always said: 'Be the most enthusiastic person you know!'"
"The key bit of survival kit you possess is your brain.
"What I have always loved about survival is the resourcefulness of it, how you can take a shoelace and a tea bag to make something useful.
"It is ingenuity that can change a situation dramatically."
"I try to maintain fitness all of the time really – I consider it part of my job. I train hard most days.
"I also do a lot of yoga which keeps me flexible and bendy for hanging off trees etc. It is functional strength that I am looking to achieve rather than big muscles."
"The key to survival is one thing – hard work. Everyone thinks it's about the bandana around the head, the flexing the muscles, attacking the crocodile – it's not, it's about bloody hard work.
"Quietly get up early, be the first to collect the firewood, spend 12 hours trying to light a fire – it's just hard work.
"The key to success on the island, as well as in life, is just hard graft. The rewards go to the people who work the hardest."
"I can sum up survival in one quote: 'When you are going through hell, keep going.'
"We're all more resilient than we believe."
Bear is the head of the Scouts whose motto is: 'Be prepared!'

Hello, so I like this boy. He's shy and sometimes hard to talk to. I would sometimes have to initiate the conversation. He got out of relationship like 2 weeks ago and we just started talking as friends a week ago? I really like him but don't know what to do. I'm scared to get rejected since we do have classes together and do sit next to each other in those classes.
Most Helpful Guy
I have to say, the girls responses are wrong. If he's shy and your worried he won't make a move even if he wants too then it won't happen.
You need to make the first move. Just ask him. If you feel like it's too close to him getting out of the last relationship. Spend a couple more weeks being friends and give him some time to get over it, and get more comfortable with you.00|00|0
Most Helpful Girl
I think you should wait to see if he is interested in you so you don't risk being rejected. If he doesn't show any signs of interest, then don't talk to him.10|10|1
best respond for me.

NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- The seemingly unstoppable rally in solar stocks -- which hit a fever pitch on Thursday, ironically the same day that the U.S. government gave approval for $8 billion in loans for two nuclear power plants -- may not be over. However, there are a few key solar sector trading rules to keep in mind given the run-up in stocks this year. Here are five ways to think about whether the latest short-term burst in the sector will continue to be a trading opportunity for long-only investors or for shorts to step in and profit from the madness.
1. There are only two sentiments in solar, and there is only enough room in town for one of them at a time: It can only be excessive optimism or excessive pessimism. It's no surprise, then, that given solar stocks were trading as if the industry had died -- it wasn't even possible at the beginning of the year to borrow some Chinese solar stocks that investors wanted to keep shorting -- sentiment turned early in 2012. Tack on top of that the risk-on equities environment with the S&P 500 already up more than 7% this year, and many of the worst-performing stocks in 2011 have been in rally mode, including solar. 2. Optimism about solar demand doesn't equal better margins and profits for publicly traded companies. Solar supporters rant and rave about anyone who can't accept the exponential growth of solar demand annually. There is good reason to be more optimistic about demand in 2012, however, there is still runaway capacity from solar manufacturers that needs to be constrained for a healthier operating environment and supply/demand balance. Think of it this way: To say that the technology sector and use of microchips grows exponentially doesn't imply that every semiconductor company will be successful. In fact, the semiconductor space has been littered with failures throughout the history of the tech revolution. It's no different in solar: An industry where demand grows annually is not proof of success for publicly traded companies competing in a crowded, increasingly commoditized space. The Chinese solar stocks, led by the three primary solar panel makers, Suntech Power ( STP), Trina Solar ( TSL) and Yingli Green Energy ( YGE), have rallied this year by 90%, 68% and 55%, respectively. LDK Solar is up 60%, too. Stocks like Suntech and LDK have been so extensively shorted that a big part of the rally is covering on the part of the biggest solar bears. For an investor that shorted Suntech at $2 earlier this year, the pain has been severe, even if nothing has improved in terms of the long-term earnings power or financial strength of the company. Talk to many solar analysts and balance sheet risks still weigh heavily on shares of Suntech and LDK, while the need for consolidation among Chinese solar manufacturers makes it difficult to make a long-term call on any of these companies. Trina Solar and Suntech CEOs have recently talked up the demand profile of China, which has helped to fuel the rally on top of other sector reads that demand is going to be better than previously forecast. Another reason cited for optimism about demand was the outlook that European solar company REC provided with its results on Wednesday. REC said 2012 demand is expected to shift from Europe to Asia and the U.S. It also stated that there have been "clear signs of reduced capacity in the entire value chain." REC permanently shuttered 50% of its solar wafer and cell production in Norway. However, the company also said, "Current pricing puts severe pressure on margins across the industry." And added, "Overall demand outlook for 2012 is highly uncertain." REC summarized its 2012 outlook by stating, "Except in silicon, hardly anyone in the industry make profits." Deutsche Bank has been leading the charge on behalf of a better demand scenario, and on Thursday, the firm's solar analyst Vishal Shah, said for the second time in 2012 that things are getting better.

Is there a way to send an email notification when a user accepts a helpdesk ticket. Notification is sent out to all users that a new ticket has been created, but only the user assigned the ticket gets notification that the ticket has been assigned. It would be nice to alert all users that the ticket has been assigned so they do have to keep checking the system to verify a ticket hasn't been forgotten.

"Users accepts a helpdesk ticket" Are you meaning other Admins?
Yes, any Admin with the 'Notify Me' checked under User Accounts will receive a notification that a ticket has arrived in the Help Desk and the ticket submitter will receive a notification that a ticket has been accepted/assigned.
At this time, the requester will be the only party receiving that notification.
However, It's a logical request to keep other Admins "in the loop" that a ticket has been assigned and to whom it's been assigned. You can do a search for a Feature Request or create one.
Feb 27, 2008 at 2:12 UTC
So if I get this correct, the user starting a ticket is supposed to receive notifications of ticket updates?

-any activity/updates to that ticket request
-who it was assigned to.
-that it was closed (If they submitted a ticket request by email)
Feb 27, 2008 at 5:45 UTC
In that case I have an issue. IT gets a notification of a new ticket being open, but the users get nothing. Any ideas?
Feb 27, 2008 at 5:59 UTC
Is the user submitting the ticket by email or through the portal?
Feb 27, 2008 at 7:29 UTC
Through the portal.
Feb 28, 2008 at 10:56 UTC
In the portal under the submitting user profile, do you see any updates?
Test Example: User sends ticket to Help Desk > Admin accepts ticket >
Admin replies with an update on that ticket from the Help Desk interface
Do you see the update in the portal for that user in the comments box?
Is this just one user or are others experiencing this?
Let me know and we'll go from there.
Feb 28, 2008 at 12:35 UTC
Yes, updates are present, but none of the users get any notifications.
I did start getting notifications after checking the Mail Me checkbox whenever a Ticket is generated. No other emails besides that one.
Feb 28, 2008 at 2:06 UTC
Yes, The Admin should get notification if they have the "Notify Me" checked.
If users are submitting through the portal POP3 would not have to be setup otherwise POP3 is necessary for emailing in requests and getting notifications properly.
Is this just one user or are others experiencing this?

Maxies Knitwear is where you can find beautiful women's knitwear accessories handknitted by me, Julie.
Maxies Knitwear started as an outlet for my knitting passion. I learnt to knit from my mother, who knitted beautiful jumpers and cardigans for us and for those she loved. She also taught me (and my 2 brothers) how to knit when we were little.
My knitting style is simple and I love to try different textures to create an item. My favourite items to knit are scarves and there's nothing quite like a soft, warm hand knit scarf to wear on a cold winter's day!
Usually when knitting an item, my mind is already planning the next piece to knit. So every now and then I need to have a 'completion day', where the majority of the day is finishing off all those pieces that have been put aside while I move onto my next creation. These are the days where bows or flowers are created, or when my large pile of buttons is scattered across the floor while I hunt down the exact button for each piece. For me it's such a fun day, with a sense of satisfaction to see the items completed and ready to be photographed.
Building my Etsy shop has taught me many skills over the years, but I know there is still a lot for me to learn! It's been such a delight for me to have my lovingly knitted items sent to other parts of the world to be worn.
To find out about new products and special offers, feel free to follow me on Social Media or sign up to receive my newsletter via my website. Links are below.

Google has been the king of search and many other services but also it had failed in some services. Google kicked out Google Plus into the field of social networking with a lot of hype and glitter. But it couldn't stay firm before the reigning Facebook and Twitter. While many people have registered for Google Plus very enthusiastically but hardly they are interested in getting back there to use Google Plus.
Here is an infographic which shows how Google Plus has been a miles backward when compared to Facebook and Twitter.If you look on average, people stay in Google Plus only 3.3 minutes per month, while staying at Facebook is at least 550 minutes. For every minute on Google Plus there are nearly 1000 Facebook minutes spent.

I never expect to leg into a short position at the very top of a trend - especially when I take short positions in volatile stocks with a high level of existing short interest in them, like the homebuilders. I always give myself room to double down - or "double up" in the case of shorting.
The homebuilder stocks have spiked up this morning on the back of PulteGroup's (NYSE:PHM) third quarter earnings report (10-Q pdf link). Despite PHM's implementation of two significant GAAP earnings management devices which made earnings appear far higher than they really were, PHM's stock has popped 7.6% today and the Dow Jones Homebuilder Index (DJUSHB) has spike up 4.3% in sympathy. As I will outline below, I am recommending selling long positions into this move and establishing or adding to short positions, as a careful analysis of PHM's earnings report reveals several troubling aspects and bounce in the builders is therefore unjustified.
PHM reported a whopping $5.87 in earnings per share for the quarter, most of which was derived from taking a deferred tax asset valuation allowance (discussed below). Net of this non-cash net income "benefit," PHM's net income was .45/share, beating consensus estimates by 8 cents. However, the Company also disclosed that it had repurchased 5.3 million shares during the quarter using $83 million of shareholder cash. Adjusting for the buyback, we find that the buyback added 8 cents per share to its EPS which means that, not including the earnings management device implemented with the buy back, PHM's earnings were in-line with consensus estimates.
Even more troubling to me than the blatant application of what I consider to be excessively inappropriate non-cash accruals to earnings, thereby distorting the real, economically generated net income from the Company, is that fact that PHM reported that new orders fell 17% in Q3. This is a fact that is now being consistently reported by homebuilders, as discussed here with KB Home and reported on Monday by NVR. Furthermore, PHM's new order decline was significantly higher than was reported by both KB Home (NYSE:KBH) and NVR Inc (NYSE:NVR). To be sure, part of the reason orders declined was higher interest rates. But higher interest rates are likely here to stay, which means homebuilders in general can expect a lower level of orders vs. 2012, as the monthly mortgage payment is less affordable. The price action in PHM's stock today tells me that market is completely ignoring the double-digit decline in PHM's new orders. Furthermore, the dollar value of the backlog of orders declined 8% from last year's Q3, the Company's "active communities" is down 15% from last year's Q3 and PHM's new order cancellation rate jumped up to 18% to it has been since 2011. These are all bearish attributes.
However, more disconcerting is the fact that PHM blames the Government shutdown on its new orders decline. Recall, PHM's Q3 is comprised of July, August and September. July and August are two of the biggest months for home sales, and September is typically the 5th or 6th biggest. The government shutdown did not occur until October 1st. The shutdown wasn't even on anyone's mind until mid-September, at which it would seem that anyone thinking about buying a new home would want to get their FHA/FNM/FRE (that would be 99% of the mortgages issued) in place and contracts signed before October 1st. If anything, the shutdown threat should have "pulled forward" some contract signings and PHM's new orders should have been stable to slightly lower (lower from higher interest rates). I point this out because, at least me for me, it calls into the question the credibility of PHM management, as I consider this excuse for the drop in new orders to be disingenuous, and it increases my willingness to reject any part of their use of the deferred tax asset valuation reversal.
Speaking of the deferred tax asset valuation reversal allowance, it added $5.42 to the company's reported net income per share (fully diluted). Without digging too deeply into the mechanics of this complicated GAAP accounting entry, the asset entry enables a company to recognize net operating loss carryforwards in one shot for GAAP accounting purposes, by creating a deferred tax asset account on the balance sheet and a one-time incurrence of income on the income statement. At the time it is taken, it does not generate any actual cash flow for the company's bank account and it is not an operations-based source of income. In order for a company to determine if the deferred tax allowance should be recognized, it must be highly confident that it will be able to generate the operating income required to take advantage of the benefit as recognized. In other words, PHM's management better hope that new orders stop declining and that the company will be able to sell enough new homes in the next several quarters in order to justify the $2.1 billion GAAP income benefit it took this quarter.
Given the extreme volatility over time of homebuilder sales and earnings, I'll leave it to the reader to decide if PHM's decision was justified. I will point out that PHM's net income without the tax asset benefit was $174 million for the quarter, or a mere 8% of the accounting benefit recognized by PHM. I will also point out that this latest quarter will likely be a peak earnings quarter in what I believe is the end of the latest housing market bull cycle. And therefore PHM management's decision to utilize an accounting benefit of this magnitude reflects poor judgment and reeks of earnings management techniques designed to juice the stock price. I will point out that if you review the company's insider activity SEC Form-4 report, going back at least to March insider direct open market stock sales heavily out-number purchases, with most of the "purchases" being either zero-cost compensation shares or compensation options exercised. The heaviest selling occurred in the spring, ahead of the peak home selling season when the stock was in the low $20's ($17.87 as write this and it's been as low as $14.23 recently).
With this analysis of PHM's earnings and its effect on the homebuilder stocks gains today, and in the context of my macro theme that the housing bounce of the last 18 months has run its course and the market is headed much lower, I am recommending that anyone with a position in PHM should unload it today. Although I am not going to short PHM right now as I'm already short DR Horton (NYSE:DHI) and KBH, I did sell short January DHI 21-strike calls ($1.10 avg). This is a less risky technique to express a bearish view on a stock or index, as I collect $1.10 premium per contract that I keep until expiration or I decide cover them. If, for some reason (like the Fed increases QE before the January expiration) DHI closes above 21 and I decide to let the buyer exercise the calls, I am effectively short more DHI at $22.10 ($21 strike price + $1.10 put premium collected). I anticipate that the puts will expire worthless and I will be keeping the entire put premium.
Again, as a caveat, the homebuilder sector is extremely volatile and several homebuilder stocks have a high degree of short interest in them, which adds even more to the volatility. However, I am more confident with every homebuilder earnings report and every monthly existing and new homes sales report that my bearish view of the housing market is correct. Although it is likely that the Fed and the government will attempt to implement additional taxpayer-funded programs to try an re-stimulate home sales, and therefore there will occasional spikes up in the stock prices of homebuilders, I believe that the market will ultimately see this as futile desperate measures in attempting to generate economic growth and traders and investors will use any bounces to sell/short homebuilder stocks.
Disclosure: I am short DHI, KBH. I wrote this article myself, and it expresses my own opinions. I am not receiving compensation for it (other than from Seeking Alpha). I have no business relationship with any company whose stock is mentioned in this article.

Moreover, the Taliban has been coming over the outskirt from Pakistan with bunches of weapons to execute US troops, and NATO powers. Our young president still can't seem to take our armed force and follow them. On the off chance that he does, he might have the capacity to free the universe of the Taliban and Al Qaeda, however the Pakistani individuals will be very disturbed, as 60% of them don't favor of the US going over their outskirt, regardless of their identity battling.

Learning Foreign Language Triggers Brain Growth
Specialists, Swedish Academy of young translators, discovered that intensive study of foreign tongues stimulates the growth of the hippo...
In the Swedish Academy, young people are offered to study Arabic, Russian or Dari (the language of the Afghan Tajiks) in 13 months. Newcomers had to learn the language all day long, every day, at a very intense pace. Their hard work gave unexpectedly impressive results.
The group of translator students also showed changes in three areas of the cerebral cortex. The students who showed a bigger growth of the hippocampus and the superior temporal gyrus, had better language skills than other students. Most diligent students also showed the growth in the middle frontal gyrus.
Scientists say that foreign language studies show almost a miraculous effect on the brain. The fact is that the studies of unfamiliar tongues and writings make the brain work as hard as it can. They discovered that all test people, who knew two languages, had increased density of the cerebral cortex in the lower part of the parietal lobe. Those changes were most intense with the participants who spoke two languages from childhood.
However, despite this scientific conclusion, language learning in adulthood and even in old age can do a lot of good.

Finance Minister Pravin Gordhan was in Durban on Tuesday and the KwaZulu-Natal government used the opportunity to impress upon him the dire need for extra funding for the province.
In a statement on Tuesday, Premier Willies Mchunu said his executive council drew Gordhan's attention to the practicalities of rolling out large-scale developmental projects and other factors that required KZN to be "treated differently" when it came to funding.
Gordhan briefed the executive on the country's economic outlook before his medium-term Budget policy statement in Parliament next week.
He stressed the need for economic growth to shore up tax revenue, failing which would impact on state spending.
Mchunu said: "In view of possible budget cuts on the KZN fiscus, we have informed the minister that, when budgeting, KZN should be treated differently because of its topography of valleys and rivers, making it difficult to speed up the delivery of bulk infrastructure such as water, sanitation and electricity, including road construction."
The payment of izinduna, (community leaders) which required more than R1 billion was also on the wish list.
"We also drew to the minster's attention budget pressures presented by the payment of salaries to izinduna amounting to millions, excluding the salary back-pay estimated to be over R1bn.
"In addition, the provincial fiscus has to find R252.3 million in 2017/18, R266.2m in 2018/19 and R280.8m in 2019/20 to remunerate izinduna," he said.

New With Questions
Decorating By KISSES-AND-KUPCAKES22 Updated 16 Jun 2011 , 5:28am by ConfectionsCC
Hey guys im fairly new at decorating and I guess im ok at it but i really enjoy it. So a couple questions..
1. Does anyone have a buttercream icing kind of like safeways bakery icing?? i have a buttercream recipie very popular but i think it tastes alot like shortening. i tried to add more butter less shortening and it didnt turn out so well.. lol so help with this would be appriciated..
2.I have an icing tip but how does everyone smooth their icing?? has anyone tried an icing smoother?? i was thinking about buying one..
3. Adding flowers to cakes.. how do i do this i no they have funnels to put in the cake but do u just set the flowers in it??
Thanks so much with everyones help =)(=
Read the Forum and Articles and they will answer all your questions. We all started in the same place. Good luck and keep practicing
One of the most valuable learning sources for making and smoothing buttercream is the DVD "Perfecting the Art of Buttercream" available from Sharon Zambito's
Butter will make your icing softer and more difficult to work with. Most of us use some sort of Hi Ratio shortening which is created especially for icing. It will make a huge difference in eliminating that greasy taste that Crisco leaves. You can always add butter flavor if that is the taste you prefer.
Welcome to Cake Central, the most addicting site on the Internet!!
Welcome to CC!!! THE BEST WEBSITE IN-THE-WORLD!!! As another user said, check out Sharon Zambito's dvds, if you can not afford them being you are a beginner, try checking with your library, if they do not have them I am sure they can get them! Mine did and boy was it worth the 6 week wait! I use her Buttercream recipe and its DELICIOUS and super fluffy! I think what you generally think of as "bakery" buttercream would be like grocery store buttercreams, which are pre made and shipped to the store in a large 35lbs pail...cool if you want that taste, but for me, I like the taste of home-made and spending a little extra $$ per lbs of icing makes a difference...really. If you can find it, but a hi-ratio shortening in a commercial kitchen store or bakery store. Sometimes bakeries are willing to sell these types of products, in my area, there is a local store that all the restaurants and bakeries buy from, and, lastly if you can not get this stuff local, there online stores like www.fondantsource.com cake supply that have great prices that can get these professional products to you, even at home1

The Gaiola Underwater Park
Gaiola Underwater Park is an area of great interest, archaeologically and
naturally because it juxtaposes ancient remains and biological colonies of
animal and plant life flourishing in and around structures that have stood
here since roman times. The Park has been set up in 2002 for archaeological
reasons; in fact there are many remains of an ancient roman villa that lie
underwater because of bradyseism, a geological phenomenon. It causes the
lowering and the rising of the earth and of the sea level. We can assert
that the coast line has been lowered of 3 – 4 meters since roman times. For
this reason in this area it is possible to observe the remains of a roman
harbour and of the roman moray eels ponds in addition to many others ancient
structures. The visit of this park is interesting also from a geological
point of view, because the hillside of Posillipo is the eastern limit of the
volcanic area of the Phlegrean Fields. The overall morphology of the
Phlegrean Fields is the results of the intensive eruptive activity of the
enormous Phlegrean Caldera. In particular the massive presence of tuff is
given by one eruption of 12.000 years ago, called the "Neapolitan Yellow
Tuff Eruption". In addition to all this aspect the safeguard of this area
improved the environmental condition of the coastline, making it also an
interesting environmental reserve.

I`m working on a database, i have two tables SYS_USER, ACCOUNT_TYPE.
The SYS_USER contains main information about the user (username, password, fname,lname)
ACCOUNT_TYPE contains three types(admin, manager,agent)
i have a regestiration form where you insert information and CHOOSE the Accoount Type.
i have a login form which contains username, password.
im just facing one problem i need the system to display a msgbox saying "hi manager", or "hi admin", based on which account type has logged in.
i attached the code, it is working just perfect, but just missing the part of the account type.
4 Replies
May 5, 2011 at 4:05 UTC
I presume the sys_user table has a field to store the account type (if not, how are the tables linked?) Then just include a dlookup on that field in an IF statement to get the required message text.
Alternatively modify the data source for the form to include the account_type table.
May 5, 2011 at 7:06 UTC
yep Gerard9944 is correct you should be able to
Msgbox "Hi " & DLookup("Account Type", "Sys_User","[SERIAL_NUMBER]=" & Me.Combo0.Value)
If you are storing an id field and not the actual types in SYS_User you could write a query and then use a dlookup to return the value from the query.
May 6, 2011 at 7:28 UTC
thanks very much for reply.
i write a code in the login screen, to check if the user name and password match with the corresponding username and password in the database.
the problem im facing is if a user enters a username correct and a password which matches another user name the system will login.
SYS_USER: (the table):
username:saad,,, password:saad, accounttype: admin.
username:jhone,, password:jhone, accounttpe: manager.
if jhone entered his username and the password of saad the system will log him as admin.
it should be that if jhone log in with his username and password then system logs him as manager.
the account type field in the table is a lookup wizard that only have these values (admin, manager)
May 13, 2011 at 8:01 UTC
Your dlookup code appears to be correct and should not accept a different password. You may need to convert Combo0.value to a string?
You could try a different approach - add the Password field to the Combo0 query and compare the entered password to the value of Combo0.Column(2) - assuming the password field is the 3rd. column.

Report: Prince Harry and Cressida Bonas Have Broken Up
People magazine reports.Looks like there won't be another royal wedding anytime soon. Prince Harry and Cressida Bonas have split up,
Harry, 29, and Cressida, 25, had been dating for two years and many had speculated that Prince William's younger brother might be getting ready to propose to Cressy, as she's known.
But just as Wills and Kate Middleton are celebrating their third wedding anniversary, Harry has reportedly broken up with the petite blonde. A source close to the prince told People, "He found her too needy and it just wasn't working out."
Perhaps Harry can now replace "average bloke" Matthew Hicks on Fox's duplicitous dating show I Wanna Marry "Harry"?
The line forms to the left, ladies.

Do you remember the sleek and stylish sedan with paddle shifters? Yes, we are talking about the Honda Civic, one of the first cars in India which had come with oodles of performance and sporty image.
Honda is planning to bring back the Civic to India in 2017 and wants to win back the premium tag it enjoyed some years back. Here are five things that you need to know about the new Honda Civic.
1. New Honda Civic Design
The all-new generation Honda Civic is longer, wider and sleeker. The front profile is imposing and the overhang bonnet creates a rather youthful and sporty design. The 10th generation Civic is a coupe, this is evident with the sloping roofline towards the rear section.
The new Civic will appeal to the Indian customers for its badging the name 'Civic' which brings a lot of nostalgia and Honda enthusiasts will welcome the Civic to India.
2. Tenth-Generation Civic Globally
India last saw the eighth-generation Honda Civic and was discontinued in 2013, since the Civic was available only in the petrol model, India was moving towards diesel technology and the Civic lost out to the diesel cars like the Skoda's and the Volkswagen.
3. New Honda Civic Engine
Since the New Civic needs to be competitive, Honda will offer both the petrol and diesel engines for India. The petrol engine is expected to be a 1.8-litre engine which will punch out 143bhp and the diesel will be of 1.6-litre engine producing 120bhp.
For the Civic enthusiasts, there is more, Honda might offer the 1.5-litre turbo petrol engine, developing 175bhp.
4. Better Performance Chassis
Honda is claiming that the new chassis which is the best in the history of Civic, the Japanese car maker will be injecting ultra-high-strength steel and has better rigidity. This confirms better handling of the new generation Civic.
5. High-Decibel Competition
The New Honda Civic will go rival the Toyota Corolla, Skoda Octavia, Volkswagen Jetta, upcoming Hyundai Elantra and Chevrolet Cruze. With this kind of competitors, we can expect the New Civic to cost anything in the range of Rs. 15 - 18 lakh.

KLaSh Chairs by Standrin
With this unique collection we've combined great design, vibrant colour and geometric pattern to make a rebellious statement of fun and individuality.
Ideal for making a dramatic statement around a dining table or indeed at a desk or small table, the KLaSh chairs are the perfect choice for those that love traditional furniture design with a contemporary edge.
Product information:
Each piece is carefully sourced and selected for its enduring quality and elegant design.
To create the look we first prepare the surface of each chair by hand using traditional restoration methods. Our attention to detail at this early stage is an integral part of the manufacturing process as this is the only way to achieve the flawlessly smooth finish that KLaSh chairs are known for. Each chair is then encased with an immaculate, synthetic neon finish.
Finally each chair is upholstered in a contrasting 'Ziggy' fabric from Italian fabric-house Dedar (Milano) to complete the look. Ziggy fabric features a small geometric pattern on a satin background with a linen yarn.
Colour ways shown: Hot Pink / Ziggy fabric - Cherry
Synthetic finish is durable and wipe-clean.
KLaSh chairs can be purchased individually or bespoke 'harlequin' dining sets of 4 - 14 can be made to order if required.
For more information on how to create your very own KLaSh dining chair set especially for you, please contact us here

Iron Man 2 isn't one of the best Marvel movies, but it did have plenty of eye candy. The scene on the race track where Tony Stark's armor springs to life from a suitcase is the most memorable of the film, and you can almost re-live it with this prop replica. The Mark V armor suitcase fuel cell is a 1/4 scale replica, and it was made from official Marvel references such as the original prop and 3D digital files.
Besides looking spectacular, the suitcase serves as a power supply to keep your phones, mobile devices, and gaming consoles charged and at full power. Tony Stark would appreciate both the look and function.
Pre-order now for an estimated ship date of April.

The New NBA: Preserving the Freedom of Free Agency
"I want my freedom. My goal is to control my own destiny. And as you've seen in my career, I've never been in a position to do that. I know some teams out there are saying, 'Oh, Chauncey will be great in mentoring' and I'm tired of that. I've got a few good years left to play, and I'm not trying to come in and sit on the bench, or be a mentor. I'm not going to be that guy. I want to go somewhere and win. I want to choose." – Chauncey Billups
Welcome to the players' revolution. The tide is changing in the NBA and across professional sports, and the result is players taking an increasing role in deciding where they go and who they play for. At the heart of this sea change is that central desire – to have that freedom to choose.

São Tomé and Príncipe, officially the Democratic Republic of São Tomé and Príncipe, is a Portuguese-speaking island nation in the Gulf of Guinea, off the western equatorial coast of Africa. It consists of two islands: São Tomé and Príncipe, located about 140 kilometres apart and about 250 and 225 kilometres, respectively, off the northwestern coast of Gabon. Both islands are part of an extinct volcanic mountain range. São Tomé, the sizable southern island, is situated just north of the equator. It was named in honor of Saint Thomas by Portuguese explorers who happened to arrive at the island on his feast day.
Religion in Sao Tome and Principe
Christianity is followed by 80% of Sao Tomes and Principe's people, Roman Catholicism, being the most popular denomination. Islam is the religion of 3% of the country's inhabitants. Traditional African beliefs are practiced by most of the rest of the population, about 0.1% or less of the people of sao tome and Principe are Buddhists.

Trialist catches Johnson's eye
By Tom Adams
Last Updated: 01/01/70 1:00am
Bristol City boss Gary Johnson has been impressed by trialist Faysal El Idrissi.
Bristol City boss Gary Johnson admits he has been impressed by trialist Faysal El Idrissi after the Moroccan scored in a reserve game against Plymouth.
The 28-year-old, who was released by Coventry City in August, scored in a 1-1 draw against The Pilgrims and has been given an extended trial after initially struggling with injury.
El Idrissi, who can play out wide or as a target man, seems to have caught Johnson's eye after the City boss admitted he had taken a shine to the player who turned out twice for Coventry before the arrival of Kevin Kyle rendered him expendable at The Ricoh Arena.
"We believe Faysal has some ability," Johnson told the club's official website.
"We have given him an extended trial period because he was unfortunately injured in a practice game and we haven't been able to take a close look at him until now."
The reserve tie was also notable for the return of Bradley Orr following his release from prison after serving 14 days of a 28-day sentence for a brawl also involving two of his team-mates.

Entropy-Mediated Patterning of Surfactant-Coated Nanoparticles and Surfaces
We perform atomistic and mesoscale simulations to explain the origin of experimentally observed stripelike patterns formed by immiscible ligands coadsorbed on the surfaces of gold and silver nanoparticles. We show that when the conformational entropy gained via this morphology is sufficient, microphase-separated stripelike patterns form. When the entropic gain is not sufficient, we instead predict bulk phase-separated Janus particles. We also show corroborating experimental results that confirm our simulational predictions that stripes form on flat surfaces as well as on curved nanoparticle surfaces.
