JP Morgan: The clawback narratives
Two weeks ago, Bloomberg's Dawn Kopecki reported that Ina Drew would be allowed to keep all of the money she was paid over the past two years — more than $20 million in all. Today, Kopecki's headline is very different: "JPMorgan's Drew Forfeits 2 Years' Pay as Managers Ousted".
What happened in the interim? There are three possibilities, as I see it, all of which can overlap:
The first is the official story: that Drew unilaterally approached Dimon, offering to return two years' pay.
"She has acted with integrity and tried to do what was right for the company at all times, even though she was part of this mistake," Chief Executive Officer Jamie Dimon said today during a meeting with analysts. "In that spirit, Ina came forward and offered to give up a very significant amount of her past compensation."
This is actually entirely consistent with everything I've read about Drew's conscientiousness and professionalism, and although returning $20 million surely hurts, Drew isn't exactly impoverishing herself by doing so: Kopecki estimates that she retired with about $57.5 million in stock, pension and other pay.
The second possibility is that Drew was always going to give back her pay, and that Kopecki's initial story was simply wrong. There was no JP Morgan source for that story, which was based on the idea that if Drew was subject to any kind of clawback, that would have been reflected in an SEC filing; Kopecki had no JP Morgan source for her article, and JP Morgan had no particular reason to scoop itself with a formal denial, if it had long planned to announce the clawback today.
Finally, there's the other bit of new news today: the way that JP Morgan has started pointing fingers at its now-departed traders:
Traders in CIO were expected to mark their positions where they would expect to be able to execute in the market. In this instance, while the positions were within thresholds established by an independent valuation control group within CIO, the firm has recently discovered information that raises questions about the integrity of the trader marks and suggests that certain individuals may have been seeking to avoid showing the full amount of the losses in the portfolio during the first quarter. As a result, we are no longer confident that the trader marks reflected good faith estimates of fair value at quarter end.
This is a very tricky tightrope that JP Morgan is trying to walk here: it's basically saying that its traders were acting fraudulently, but not so fraudulently that they were doing anything actually illegal. Essentially, it's saying that the bank itself can't be blamed for reporting marks outside the market's bid-offer spread, but that the traders can and should be severely disciplined for choosing marks towards one extreme of that spread, even as they knew they couldn't realistically get those prices if they needed to unwind their position.
As a result, Drew was overseeing a group that wasn't just losing money, which is something that all traders do from time to time, but was also behaving unethically. That's something no traders should ever do, and is good reason to claw back bonuses from the traders and their bosses, all the way up to Drew and possibly even Dimon himself.
You can mix and match these different narratives however you like. For instance: Drew retired a respected executive of long standing, but then — possibly within the past two weeks — discovered that her employees had been behaving unethically. In response to that discovery, she offered up a payment equivalent to a two-year clawback. If that's the case, then Kopecki's initial story was correct, when it was published, and then the facts changed later on.
But there's still something smelly here. The restatement to first-quarter earnings came to $459 million — that's basically the amount by which the trading loss in that quarter was increased, as a result of re-marking positions. And notwithstanding the fact that the London Whale had extremely large positions, it's still the case that $459 million is a huge amount of money. Which raises the question: is it credible that a difference of $459 million could be within JP Morgan's internal thresholds? And if so, what does that tell us about JP Morgan's internal thresholds?
What's more, if you're the CIO trading desk and your single biggest and most public position starts sliding away from you in a nasty manner, would you really try to massage those marks? I can see why traders can get a bit overoptimistic when they're angling for a big bonus, or trying to make it look like they made money rather than lost money. But if you're already 'fessing up to a $2 billion loss, at that point you have precious little incentive to make it look like it's "only" $2 billion rather than $2.5 billion. You're almost certainly going to lose your job either way; the last thing you want to do is exacerbate matters by being less than fully honest about where you're at.
So try this other narrative on for size: after the losses were first disclosed, the markets continued to move away from JP Morgan, and the bank's losses grew, as Dimon always warned that they might. At this point, however, with the losses up to $5.8 billion in total, it became increasingly difficult to justify the idea that there wouldn't be any clawbacks. At the same time, JP Morgan, for whatever reason, didn't want to set an internal precedent saying that taking on risk and then losing money was sufficient reason to claw back funds. So instead it went back to the original marks and unilaterally determined that they were unethically self-serving. And at that point it could claw back bonuses not on the grounds that the traders lost money, but rather on the grounds that they were behaving unethically. And similarly, because Drew was now someone who had been in charge of unethical traders, it could ask her to return a lot of money as well.
This solution would allow Dimon and JP Morgan to be seen to be taking the ethical high road, sending a clear signal to the bank's trading desks: we understand you're in the risk business, and that sometimes people in the risk business lose money. That's OK, especially when executives up to and including the CEO signed off on your trades. But what's not OK is if you lie about your marks, or you try to hide how much money you're losing.
The truth is in here somewhere, although we'll probably never know where exactly. If I had to guess, I'd say that Dimon was in the first instance inclined not to claw back pay, especially since he had personally approved the trade in question — but then, as JP Morgan's share price got out of hand and there was outrage about the lack of clawbacks, he changed his mind. All he really needed to do was make a couple of phone calls. The first would go to the people trying to clean up the mess in London, asking whether the first-quarter loss was really as small as the bank originally said, and implicitly encouraging them to do what mess-cleaner-uppers always do, which is put as much blame as possible on the people who created the mess being cleaned up. And then the second call would go to Drew, who would probably need very little prompting to do the right thing and volunteer a clawback equivalent.
The downside of this strategy is that JP Morgan was forced to restate its first-quarter earnings, and public companies hate doing that. Still, the bank's share price is up more than 5% today, so the markets don't seem to mind. The big write-off this quarter, along with the claw-backs, look as though they have drawn a line under the whole sorry story. Which means, I guess, that JP Morgan can now concentrate more of its attention on the ongoing Liebor scandal.
If a $2B loss can so easily morph into a $6+B loss by "the markets moving away from JPM", then something was very wrong with the "risk model". Criminally wrong, you might say, 4 years after Black Swans got mass media attention.
Anyway, all this about "not wanting to discourage traders from taking risks" is very nice, but it only makes sense if you assume that there was no categorical difference between this instance of risk-taking and others. Which seems to imply that you either believe that losses such as the ones incurred 'should be expected', or that you secretly believe that all of the trades engaged in (by this "hedging" office? by all traders?) are equally 'risky'. Not really sure which is worse.
This is my favorite part:
"JP Morgan, for whatever reason, didn't want to set an internal precedent saying that taking on risk and then losing money was sufficient reason to claw back funds."
Let's explore that reason for just a second. What would the precedent be, exactly? That when you make money for the firm you get a huge bonus. But that when you lose money for the firm, you can still expect a huge bonus?
Or is it that when you make money for the firm, which turns out to have involved short-term gain but long-term loss, you can expect to be compensated for the gains without being penalized for the losses?
This is the heads-I-win-tails-you-lose Wall Street model that JP Morgan is now turning itself upside down to preserve.
"There is no dark side, really.
Matter of fact, it's all dark."
– Pink Floyd
In my experience – and pretty clear from the relative fines Barclays had to pay on each side of the pond for the same offense – the SEC has sharper teeth than the London regulators. I would want to know in this case if Dimon at JPM chose London for this operation run by Drew because of that. If so, he would have known it had high risks, and now they've come home to roost the damage is at arm's length and he can distance himself from what was, after all, his own strategy. As it's in London, any penalties can be handled in a more benign regulatory environment.
That doesn't excuse what the whale was doing, but I can't see how Dimon can wash his hands completely of this. Was he in charge, or wasn't he?
Soon enough the implicated will all draw their knives on one another. In that situation, I want to be Drew's lawyer more than be counsel for any of the others. About this –
"If I had to guess, I'd say that Dimon was in the first instance inclined not to claw back pay, especially since he had personally approved the trade in question …."
That last-quoted clause of yours is a real eye-opener, FS. Got a source for that confession? AIUI, JD continues to deny knowledge of the actual situation at the relevant times, however much the mass of circumstantial evidence says exactly the opposite.
But hey – if Corzine, Grubman, DSK and Spitzer can 'walk' on their offenses, why not JD on this? Who's more kosher-elite than him?

It wasn't really morning anymore, more the early noon, when Talon stood in the kitchen, giving his best to make bacon and eggs he just had stolen from the market. Unseen of course. Carefully he tasted the results and threw away the fork afterwards in disappointment. It was 'okay'. Only fucking okay. That would never be good enough. Maybe he should bother Graves someday to teach him cooking.
With a sigh Talon filled the meal onto a plate and then he started over. At least one try had to be better than that. Just because Fate deserved a better breakfast. And the other people in this house, too, somehow.

I would GLADLY pay for extra character slots. And given that Blizz says the vast majority of people don't use all their character slots, I am not surprised that they'd offer it as a paid service. Same with these apps- Honestly, I don't think Blizz would put them under development if they weren't going to charge for them; to the contrary, this isn't something that normally would just "come with the game." This is an extra that you absolutely do not need to play the game; it is convenience.
That said, I've not heard anything about Blizzard adding extra paid character slots; do you have a source to these hints? I'd be thrilled if they did add them, but everything I've seen directly from Blizz has just been a noncommittal "We might think about adding more slots but it is not a priority at this time." No mention of charging for them either.

Marlow, OKLa__Bumpy and disintegrating sidewalks on Marlow's main street are not only unsightly, they're downright dangerous.
But not for long.
The sidewalks from First to Fourth Streets are being replaced.
It's all possible because of a $400,000 grant from the Oklahoma Department of Transportation.
Howard Jackson has lived in Marlow off and on since 1932. He's seen the sidewalks deteriorate over the years, and watched them trip up some of his own family.
"I believe it's worse now than I've ever seen it. My mother, when she got up in years, stumbled a few times, and also I think my wife has tripped on them, but, she never fell, luckily," said Jackson.
Marlow City Administrator Janice Cain says crews aren't widening or removing any sidewalks, they are working with the layout that was already there. She says many of the sidewalks have not been touched since the 1930's.
"They've done their work. They've fulfilled their obligations, so hopefully, what we put in will take us another hundred years," said Cain.
Cain said trees will be planted and street lights will go up in spaces up and down the sidewalk. Wiring will for the street lights will be lined in a trench running along the sidewalk. She said that combination will alternate up and down main once the sidewalk project is complete.
Cain said one of the requirements of ODOT's grant is that the businesses along Main Street become wheelchair-accessible, like Marlow Mercantile.
Store owner Leah Green says crews are upgrading their ramp, along with the sidewalk.
"Right now, we have a little bit of a hassle factor, but we know that there's a light at the end of the tunnel and it's going to be very pretty...very attractive," said Green. "Once we get past these few weeks and they start on the next block...we'll be good."
"This will change the pathways of our community and there will be a new look for us and a good economic benefit for us," said Cain.
The total cost of the project will be about $800, 000. The grant will cover $400,000, while the city will make up the rest by using money in the general fund that's been set aside for one-time projects, like this.
Cain says work started on the sidewalk project this month and it is expected to be completed by January.

The 5 Golden Rules of Social Media
I recently read, Gary Vaynerchuk's Thank You Economy and have come up with the 5 rules to live by in social media.
- Content is King – Make sure the information you are sharing is important to your followers. If you aren't creating content yet, start now. Otherwise, find interesting articles for your target audience and provide insightful commentary.
- Pull Don't Push – Do not use Twitter as a PR Release channel, worse off a method for more "impressions". Don't be the 19 year old guy trying to get laid. Start with a conversation, provide some useful insight, do not push your product or services. Pull in potential customers with expert advice and knowhow.
- Search – If your target audience is 21-30 year olds that wear Pink Cowboy hats in Kansas you will find them with sites like http://search.Twitter.com. Reach out and provide insightful remarks with others in the community. Expand your following and provide value, not advertisements.
- New Business = Old Business – Business is going old school, people today are numb to advertisements and 80% off coupons. You need to build relationships the old fashion way. Caring. Be the butcher that remembers all his customer's favorite orders and throws in an extra cutlet just for coming in. Treat potential customers more like a member of your family and less like a number.
- Not Just Another Channel - Social media isn't just a way to spam more people with your message. Social Media is an opportunity to reach directly out to each and every customer and make them feel absolutely perfect. Moreover, customer's feedback can provide feedback to business and to them provide more value going forward. Finally, a happy customer will provide a business with the best marketing available – word of mouth. Positive word of mouth is the most powerful marketing tool available and it is not for sale. You have you earn it.
Follow these few rules and you will see an uptick in value added and lives benefited. Forget ROI and just treat everyone as if they were your best friend. When in doubt, do what feels right.

- Publisher: Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment
- Release Date: Jul 20, 2011
- Also On: iPhone/iPad, PC
- Summary: Bastion is an action role-playing game from Supergiant Games.
- Developer: Supergiant Games
- Genre(s): Action RPG
- # of players: 1 Player
- Cheats: On GameFAQs
- More Details and Credits »
Score distribution:
Positive: 72 out of 79
Mixed: 7 out of 79
Negative: 0 out of 79
Aug 1, 2011It says a lot for a "little" XBLA RPG to be able to hold its own sitting next to Batman: Arkham City, as it did in the Warner Bros. Booth at E3 in June. Now we know why: Bastion is something special, clearly made with love and oodles of talent. Here's to one of the very best games of the summer – downloadable or otherwise.
Jul 21, 2011Overall Bastion is an exceptional title and a tremendous start to the 2011 Summer of Arcade promotion. This is the first title from Supergiant Games and they have hit a home run with it.
Jul 19, 2011Truthfully, Bastion could be sold on its presentation alone; the game's hyper-detailed 2D graphics along with its eclectic and moving soundtrack perfectly match the well-told and understated story. But beneath this pretty packaging, there's a real game here -- and a good one at that. Supergiant Games seems to have done the seemingly impossible by creating the perfect mesh of game and story, all while preventing each of these elements from overpowering one another. Other developers, take note: this is how it's done.
Jul 19, 2011Bastion is the perfect game to kick off Microsoft's Summer of Arcade, capturing that certain something that Limbo and Braid had in previous years.
Jul 29, 2011The Xbox Live 2011 Summer of Arcade is off to a good start with Bastion. Stylish, inventive and original, the small team at Supergiant Games are giants when its comes to crafting an unique tale.
Oct 17, 2011In all it's familiarity the Diabloesque gameplay sucks you in, but it is the beautiful word, the brilliant music, and the genius voice over that keeps you going. Bastion might be a game, but it's much more a fascinating fairy tale told in real time.

Jul 20, 2011This is one of the best games to be released in 2011.It's just amazing in every sense and the cherry on the cake is...only 15 dollars.This has $60 worth of quality content and then some.You just never know anymore,I was looking forward to Dirt 3 and while very good, it was a let down.This is a game that is just screaming with new ideas and content.It's an Indie game,WHAT?Craaazy… Expand
Sep 3, 2011Absolutely beautiful game. Highly recommended it, such a beautiful storyline. The narrator is amazing and it's truly an experience I'll never forget.
Sep 19, 2011One of the best games I've played this year. Beautiful art style, tight controls and subtle but effective story-telling result in a magical game. The game has light RPG elements and training areas to mix up the pace a bit. The narration is unique and very well implemented and fortunately the voice actor is outstanding. The music is AMAZING - I bought the soundtrack the day it became available. I've played though this game twice it was so good.… Expand
Sep 2, 2011Anyone who gives this game a 0 is jaded and needs to move on. A 0 really?!? Just in atmosphere, art style it deserves a 70. The game is fun, challenging at times for the average player. Stop and smell the roses and ENJOY a game. This isn't Call of Duty where you are just working on getting to multiplayer. This is an experience. 10/10 easily.… Expand
Jul 29, 2011I've blogged a bit about Supergiant Games' Bastion previously, and discussed most of its most prominent features; for those who still don't know much about this Xbox Live Arcade downloadable, well, let's just say it's an action RPG infused with style, atmosphere, and just enough poignancy to make the trip feel worth both your time and your hard-earned dollar. If there is only one XBLA downloadable game you get this year, you can bet Bastion should be one of your top choices.
Recommended For:
+ Action RPG fans
+ Fans of games with style
+ Fans of immersive, story-based games
+ Anybody with an Xbox360
Not Recommended For:
- People with no souls.

Jul 22, 2011Having just completed the normal game (going to play new game plus eventually) I fully recommend this indie game to casual and hardcore gamers alike. This game is a steal at $15. The artwork, music, and narration are on par if not better than any triple A title in recent history. The gameplay is simple yet deceptively complex, the array of weapons to choose from keep things fresh. I haven't played a game this gripping since super meat boy earlier this year. The unfortunate thing is the game will only last about 10 hours (if you're a completionist then maybe 13 hours), but you don't want it to end because the story is just that good. If you're looking for something new and fresh to play then pick this one up.… Collapse
Apr 6, 2012Clearly, I just don't get this game. While I LOVED the music and thought the art style was great, I gotta admit that I thought the story was stupid and found the game-play to be boring. Plus, the game is less than 5 hours long which is a little less than I would like for $15.… Expand

|I, Avatar: The Culture and Consequences of Having a Second Life (New Riders)
|Mark Stephen Meadows
|What is an avatar? Why are there nearly a billion of them, and who is using them? Do avatars impact our real lives, or are they just video game conceits? Is an avatar an inspired rendering of its creator's inner self, or is it just one among millions of anonymous vehicles clogging the online freeways? Can we use our avatars to really connect with people, or do they just isolate us? And as we become more like our avatars do they become more like us? In I, Avatar, Mark Stephen Meadows answers some of these questions, but more importantly, he raises hundreds of others in his exploration of avatars and the fascinating possibilities they hold. His examination of avatars through the lenses of sociology, psychology, politics, history, and art, he will change the way you look at even a simple online profile and revolutionize the idea of avatars as part of our lives, whether first or second.

The accompanying student workbook provides exercises and explorations that link the video to the Coreys' best selling group books: GROUPS: PROCESS AND PRACTICE, GROUP TECHNIQUES, and THEORY AND PRACTICE OF GROUP COUNSELING (both the textbook and the Student Manual). This compelling video was filmed at a three-day intensive group and shows the unfolding of a live group as they build "a circle of trust." The video highlights the development of the group process by showing segments of the group work that occurred over the three-day session. Throughout the video, the Coreys demonstrate a wide variety of techniques and skills, including: how to deal with members' hesitation and resistance, their feelings of not being "good" enough, their fears of being judged, their difficulties with intimate relationships, and their unresolved issues with parents.

MARTIN COUNTY -- On April 9, the Big Brothers Big Sisters's event Taste of Martin County will be held at Memorial Park in Stuart.
This is the 17th year the event has taken place, and the money raised from the event will go to benefit the programs for Big Brothers Big Sisters of Palm Beach and Martin County.
The event showcases local restaurants, caterers and a variety of food, wine and beer vendors. Participants will be offered a "taste" of what everyone has to offer. There will be more than 30 dining establishments represented, including
Then, the participants will be asked to vote on their favorites in six categories: best soup, best salad, best appetizer, best entrée, best dessert and best presentation.
The signature sponsor of the event is Fox, Wackeen, Dungey, Beard, Bush, Goldman, Kilbride & McCluckey. The firm has supported the annual event for the past four years.
"Mentoring is very near and dear to the hearts of attorneys, because it is so important during our career development," said George Bush, one of the partners. "Who wouldn't support an organization with such a proven impact on the community?"
There will also be a silent auction held during the event.
Last year, the awards winners were Palm City Grill for Best Soup, Anthony's Coal Fired Pizza for Best Salad, The Evergreen Club for Best Entrée, Edible Spirits for Best Dessert, The Evergreen Club for Best Presentation and J.J. Taylor for Best Beer.
If you want to help out before April 9, there will be a golf tournament held on April 7 by the Treasure Coast Estate Buyers at the Martin Downs Golf Club. All golfers will receive two free tickets to the Taste event with their registration fee.
Tickets to the Taste of Martin County are $50 per person, or $60 at the event. For more information, call (772) 678-7487 or go online to www.thetasteofmartincounty.com.

Here where I live in the midwest there is a lot of sickness going around. The pharmacy lines are long. Many have symptoms of the flu, but is it the flu or just the creepy crud?
We I was growing up, my dad had a name for not feeling good no matter what you had. He called it the crud. Back then I really didn't know what he meant by that, but now I believe he meant you had picked up some hitch-hikers. That being viruses and/or bacterial infections. So I added the name creepy to it. To me it's just creepy thinking about those microscopic bugs being in your body.
So how do you know if it's the flu or the creepy crud?
Well the flu is also caused by viruses, influenza A or B. The symptoms can be similar to a cold (creepy crud), but the flu is much worse. Colds for instance can drag you down but the flu can literally put you down in the bed to the point of shuddering thinking about getting up.
Sore throat, sneezing, congestion and headache are common with colds. With the flu however, you will probably run a high fever for several days accompanied by fatigue, weakness, headache and myalgia. Complications from colds are usually minor, but if you get a severe case of the flu, it can lead to life-threatening illness like pneumonia.
Another form of creepy crud is what people call the stomach flu, which is actually just a form of gastroenteritis or inflammation of the stomach and intestines. Symptoms can be abdominal cramps, nausea, vomiting and/or diarrhea.
And there are other types of hitch-hikers (creepy crud) that you can pick up such as sinus and respiratory infections for instance.
What can you do to help yourself?
I know you have heard this many times before but it is extremely important. Drink plenty of water and get plenty of rest. Your body cannot heal itself without these two things. In fact, dehydration can occur very quickly when you are sick.
It's also a good idea to give your body a rest from most foods while not feeling good. Consuming clear broths, vegetable and fruits juices are good. Because we drink NingXia Red daily, we find that we recover a lot faster if we do happen to become sick. NingXia Red now has a new formula with more beneficial antioxidants and bioflavonoids plus 7x more essential oils (orange, yuzu, lemon, tangerine).
Wash your hands often to help prevent the spread of the creepy crud, flu, etc.
Also using essential oils like the Thieves™ blend helps your body to recover quickly. This powerful blend of oils defends and protects and kills dangerous airborne bacteria. It is also anti-viral.
Sometimes life comes at you fast. Be prepared. My family always has several bottles of Young Living Essential Oils on hand, because my motto is… " natural is always better."

Highlands Business
Click Here to see photos of Oktoberfest in Highlands
HIGHLANDS, NJ - The feel-good spirit of Highlands' Oktoberfest is modeled on the traditional Munich, Germany Oktoberfest with an emphasis on eating; drinking and being merry while providing something for everyone. Authentic German food, children's activities, crafters, live music, dancing and other great entertainment will be part of the Highlands Business Partnership's 14th Annual Oktoberfest celebration taking place in Veterans Park on Bay & Shrewsbury Avenues on Saturday, October 4th from 2 – 9 PM. Admission and Parking is free. The rain date is October 5th from 2 – 8 p.m.
The park is festive, the food is great and the varieties of German beers are even better. Authentic German food is a highlight of this famous festival. Executive Chef Butch Greenwaldt formerly of the Hofbrauhaus is preparing the menu with plenty of traditional German favorites hot off the grill such as bratwurst, knockwurst, kraut, potato pancakes, goulash, sauerbraten and Bavarian noodles along with other tasty fare to please the kids and those less adventurous.
Quench your thirst with plenty of Oktoberfest Beers, both light and dark, and Coors Light provided by our proud beer sponsor, Shore Point Distributors. The Ed Hendela Band will perform live authentic German music and the Bayern Verien German Dancers will be sure to get the crowd moving. This year there will be two new contests added to the Oktoberfest fun. Festivities will include a "Best-Dressed" Contest, and a "Beer Stein Holding" Contest with special prizes. There will also be a Super 50/50 drawing with 50% of the proceeds going to the lucky winner.
The Highlands Business Partnership is a non-profit commercial alliance dedicated to fostering economic growth as well as preserving the area's historic past. Programs and events are made possible by our generous sponsors including, Comcast, Frank Rahm Landscaping, WRAT 95.9, Hufnagel Professional Tree Service, Shore Point Distributors, Seastreak and T&M Associates and supported in part by a grant from New Jersey Department of State, Division of Travel and Tourism.

Picnic Wine Pairing
Planning a picnic in the park this weekend? Only one thing can improve on the great outdoors, clear skies and delicious food: a great bottle of wine.
Yelena Jenkins from Celebrations has tips on finding the perfect match when it comes to food and your bottle of vino.
Burgers: It's all about the condiments! If you're using...
• A Specialty Cheese: Pair the wine to whichever cheese you use on top of the burger. For blue cheese, try a Zinfandel or Cabernet Sauvignon.
• Lots of Ketchup: Try fruity or sweet wines, such as a rosé.
• Lots of Pickles or Coleslaw: A dry red wine, like a Syrah, is a good choice.
• No Condiments: Lots of red meat from the burger requires a strong, warm red wine. Try Canaletto Primitivo (under $20).
Salami & Cheese (Brie or Manchego) on a French Baguette: This classic picnic sandwich is well suited for a great Merlot. Here's a few to try:
• Coho Wines Merlot (under $50): intense, smooth and juicy.
• Huntington Wine Cellars Merlot (under $15): robust and earthy with dark cherry and plum flavors.
• Matanzas Creek Winery Merlot (under $30): spicy and smooth with notes of blackberry.
Hot Dogs: A sweet, fruity Riesling is just the match for a hot dog loaded with relish, pickles or hot peppers. The versatile wine is very "food friendly" and pairs well with a wide assortment of eats. Try:
• Chateau St. Jean Sonoma County Johannesberg Riesling (under $15): strong florals with a hint of melon and apricot.
• Trimbach Riesling (under $25): full of flavor with fruit undertones and a bit of an acidic finish.
• Josef Leitz Rüdesheimer Drachenstein "Dragonstone" Riesling (under $15): fairly sweet with a honey and grapefruit flavor.
• Fritz Haag Estate Riesling (under $20): packs a nice, refreshing citrus punch.
Fried Chicken: Good, old fashioned fried chicken tastes excellent when paired with Semillon, a white wine with a full body and low acidity. Here are some top Semillon picks:
• Peter Lehmann Barossa Semillon (under $20): sits nicely between the lightness of a Riesling and the depth of a Chardonnay.
• Fire Gully Sauvignon Blanc Semillon (under $25): full bodied and dry with a crisp finish.
• Torbreck The Woodcutter's Semillon (under $20): very intense; buttery and crisp at the same time.

GreatSchools Rating
Teacher quality
Principal leadership
Parent involvement
FHUHS is a good high school if you apply yourself. The faculty, staff and administration are all supportive. Students in high school need to be taking on responsibility for their academic progress and their actions, and FHUHS does a good job at requiring this whenever possible.
Fair Haven Union High School pushes out kids with any kind of problem. They don't care at all about the students
The school educates very well, but some of the teachers are mean and do not know how to teach very well. A closer look would be better at the teaching staff.

Is data only written to disk when mem_high_wat is hit?
From the documentation:
At this point a background job is scheduled to ensure items are migrated to disk and the memory is then available for other membase items.
In the documentation, first the word migration is used, which sounds like it may mean either persistence or eviction and than later, the word eviction is used.
Does this mean that data is only persisted to disk when mem_high_wat is hit and any crash on a unloaded node will have full data loss?
We will also eject data as soon as it's persisted iff it's for an inactive (e.g. replica) vbucket if we're above our low watermark for memory.
Seems like it's persisted regardless. You might want to change from using the word migration and just say eviction from memory. Migration clearly sounds like your moving it to the hard drive.
Thanks, I'll update the documentation.
Your understanding is correct, the process of writing data to disk and the process of reclaiming memory are completely separate.
Any changes are persisted to disk as fast as possible, but the data is still cached in RAM. When memory usage gets high enough, a separate process kicks in just to reclaim RAM in order to make space for more data (when the low watermark is hit, replica data is reclaimed/ejected, when the high watermark is hit, active data is reclaimed/ejected).

I really want to get one of these YSL Rouge pur Couture lip products that are all the rage in the beauty community right now. The price tag seems a little outrageous which is my only hesitation but they are being described as a lipstick, lip stain and lip gloss all in one.
I would also like to take this time to plug an absolutely phenomenal blogger/youtube guru named Rae. Her channel on youtube (Raeview) and her blog (The RAEviewer) are phenomenal sources of ample information on high-end products. She does extremely thorough and in-depth reviews on so many different products each season and has excellent swatches on her blog.
Things I've Been Loving in February
- Stila One-Step Foundation
- Coastal Scents Camo Quad in Light
- Michael Todd blush in Olivia
- Smashbox Photo Finish Lid Primer
- MAC eyeshadow in Trax
- Urban Decay eyeshadow in Naked
- Clinique Bottom Lash mascara
- Revlon Lip Butter in Peach Parfait
- Neutrogena makeup remover towlettes
- Blackjack lip balm in Natural Tint
- L'Oreal 360 Go Clean Anti-breakout cleanser
- OPI Designer de Better
- Zoya Jules
I ordered two Laura Geller items from HauteLook a few weeks ago and they finally came in today. (Real quick: HauteLook has Pop Pixie makeup today at really great prices, I ordered a few more things.) One is a small baked eyeshadow trio that is really gorgeous. The other is this Wonder Wand which acts as both an eye brightener and cheek highlighter. I thought it was a little gimmicky but it was a really great price and I'm so glad I purchased it. Too often highlighters are glittery rather than brightening for a fresh look. The little sponge-tip applicator sits in the product and applies very smoothly around the eye and on the cheek bones. I also like that the powder is more of a flesh-tone than pure white as it appears more natural on the skin. Truly glad to add this to my collection.
This Coastal Scents Camo Quad in Light is a really great value. It retails for $7.95 and has wonderful range and coverage. All four shades are very creamy without being cakey which is a plus. The salmon color does a great job covering dark circles and blue veins under the eye and the yellow shade combats redness. I have been reaching for this every day since I got it last week and definitely recommend it. The quad comes in three different shades and there is also a corrector quad on the website. I have a medium skin tone but still went with light; the medium looks so dark to me.
Clinique's Bottom Lash Mascara has become a staple in my every day makeup routine. The tiny brush reaches the lashes so well and defines them with impeccable precision and zero clumps. After using this for nearly a month I tried to use one of my "regular" mascaras on the bottom lashes and it was awful. For $10 you really cannot go wrong.
Organix has a new line of hair products with macadamia oil. I picked up the conditioner today because I'm almost out of my Organix Moroccan oil conditioner. The new one pictured above smells EXACTLY like a piece of watermelon Airheads, no exaggeration. It is ridiculously incredible. It is supposed to be super hydrating and macadamia oil is on the rise in the beauty world as the next big thing, so I am really excited to try it out. I purchased mine from Walgreens for $6.99.
I've found a good dupe for NARS Orgasm blush. It's a Milani baked blush in Luminoso. Surprisingly pigmented for a drugstore blush, I really like it. I found it for $6.50 which is obviously a much better deal than NARS.
I do not own the NARS blush so I Googled swatches; these photos are not my own but are linked to the source.
Things I've Been Loving in January
January Beauty Favorites:
- Naked 2 Palette- I've been using it every day this month. My favorites (after playing around with it for a month) are Snakebite, YDK and Busted.
- The Balm "Time Balm" Concealer- The best concealer I've tried so far. I find liquid concealers do not provide enough coverage under my eyes or on blemishes (or the surgery scar on my cheek) and so I like concealers that are thicker but still creamy.
- The Balm "Frat Boy" Blush- Can you tell I love The Balm? This is a beautiful sheer coverage blush that gives me the perfect flush of color without appearing like clown makeup. It's matte, which is a must for me.
- MAC Paint Pot in "Painterly"- Just purchased this a week ago but already a staple in my makeup routine. I still use a little bit of Urban Decay Primer Potion for extra security, but I really love how it holds my shadows longer. I also love the Maybelline Color Tattoo 24 Hour eye shadows (I have three) which are very similar to paint pots for drug stores; I only wish Maybelline had created a matte beige color in the line.
- Covergirl Exact Eyelights Mascara- I prefer length to volume when it comes to mascaras and I do not like the huge brushes. Even this brush seemed a little large at first but I love how you can build layers easily for a fuller (but not clumpy) effect.
- Revlon Color Burst Lip Butters- I don't like too much color on my lips, probably because I'm just not used to seeing myself in it, so these Lip Butters are a nice way to incorporate color while still hydrating my lips. Peach Parfait is probably my favorite.
What are your favorites this month?
With inspiration of the 50's Glam World mixed in with modern day sass, we're more than ecstatic to have TheBalm featured in our much anticipated January Glam Bags. Incredibly smooth textures, eye-catching colors, and fun-to-read packaging, theBalm is definitely a beauty brand worth obsessing over. Did you know that theBalm was founded in a kitchen? About ten years ago Founder Marissa Shipman ordered 11 books online about how to make makeup and started mixing in her own kitchen. Because the books were filled with recipes for chemists, the only thing she could figure out how to make was a lip balm (beeswax, shea butter, and castor oil), hence the name- theBalm. Find out more fun things about theBalm and discover their amazing products by checking out there website and clicking this link: http://mygl.am/w8Bzab
I just discovered this company as well. I bought TheBalm "Time Balm" concealer a few days ago and used it today for the first time. Absolutely love it; hands down the best concealer I've ever tried.

Do you know about the website Julep? If you're a nail polish enthusiast, I highly recommend this subscription service. Julep has high quality nail polish that retails for $14 a bottle, but they have a Maven program for $19.99 a month as well. After taking a style quiz to find out information about you, the lovely people at Julep pick polish colors that fit who you are. I am "All American," but there are others like Bombshell and Trendsetter. The best part of the Maven program, in my opinion, is that they tell you each month exactly what your box is going to have. If you want to see what the other boxes have, or are not happy about your picks, you can request a "shelf pull" and pick a box from any of the other styles available. Awesome! I've loved every color I've received from Julep (I currently have six in my collection) and I truly do think it is worth it. On top of polishes I've also had a base coat, a top coat, a hand scrub, shea body butter and nail glitter in some of my last few boxes.
Check out Julep and the Maven program. If you use that link right now you can get your first Maven box for ONE PENNY when you use the code SHAREON at checkout, so you have nothing to lose!! Try it for at least one month and see how you like it.
Did you see our super duper suprise today? It's a sneak peak at the January Glam Bag's exclusive MyGlam cosmetic bag. The girls on facebook are getting it right. The theme of next month's bag will be eco, green, and absolutely gorgeous.
The Glam Girls
I really loved my December MyGlam bag. It was the perfect start to a subscription: Tarte mascara, Urban Decay primer potion, Urban Decay "Sin" eyeshadow, NYX lip gloss and these really neat Mai Couture paper blushes. It's literally a sheet of paper that comes off as blush when you rub it against your skin. I'm excited to get a few more of them, especially because the face of this company are a few very well-known beauty gurus on youtube.

It's the online retailer that has transformed the way we shop, but how does Amazon treat the workers who retrieve our orders? Working conditions in the company's giant warehouses have been condemned by unions as among the worst in Britain. Panorama goes undercover to find out what happens after we fill our online shopping basket.

- Gift Codes/ Certificates
- When a generous and thoughtful friend gives you a Gift Certificate Code to ClockworkCouture.com, it may seem confusing to use! We're sorry about that and working on a better system to handle those. Until then, here's a how-to.
- 1. Log in or create an account on our site
- 2. Go to MY ACCOUNT> MY CREDIT
- 3. Enter your code into the box and SUBMIT CODE
- The amount you were given will be acccessible upon checkout. A prompt will ask if you would like to use your credit for the purchase and if there is any remaining balance or debit, the site will instruct you how to proceed. Additional credit is kept track of by the site and will stay with your account.
- Vegan & Cruelty-Free Goods
- Clockwork Couture, Inc. does not carry leather or fur. We at times carry wool blends from non-mulesed sheep, and silk trim. When in doubt, feel free to ask. Our decision is based on many factors, and we get alot of heated emails about it. To clarify, we aren't judging you by our choices. It's our store, we like to feel good about we carry, we don't feel good about animal products. There have been advances in materials and fabrics to the point where animal products and non are nearly indistinguishable from another in texture, quality, and comfort. If you desire those items, there are other wonderful shops that I'm sure can help you.

I need to put this on repeat in my head daily.
(Source: prom-ising, via middlechildcomplex)
I know it's been ages since a post, but I aim to come back to the blogging world even though my time spent here has been limited (two small kids sucks time away like no other!). Today was one of those days that makes you wonder how much more you can take. One thing after another, you always say it can't get much worse…and then BAM. Not that things are really bad by any means, just that change is happening again for the millionth time in the last year for me and my family. It's just one more thing to analyze, decide, etc. It makes me miss my college days where the most pressing thing was a paper or project due and once that's over…on to the next.
The ebbs and flows of adulthood, parenthood and marriage make me appreciate all that I have surrounding me. My family (more specifically my husband) make the stress…worth it. Because at the end of the day, a flirty, loving smile from him and a giggle from a sweet little kid or your 3 year old spelling her name out loud to you for the first time, just make you feel…BLESSED.
Chapter four of F. Scott Fitzgerald's The Great Gatsby reads like a VIP guest list of the Jazz Age. Taking inspiration from those pages, this poster is comprised of the business cards and personal stationery of the movers and shakers that attended Gatsby's parties in the summer of 1922.
I think this is beautiful and it would be a lovely decoration for my new cube when I start working full time again. The color palette, the typography, everything. Gorgeous!
Created by The Heads of State.
I stepped foot into my first daycare today to find somewhere to put the kids. Yes I went and got myself hired full-time, which I'm totally excited about! On the other hand, I don't think I was mentally or emotionally ready for this. I feel this lump in my gut. How am I supposed to be sure my kids will be happy…well taken care of…safe. This place is probably by far one of the better places you could chose to put your kids. I just had no idea I'd feel like this. I know I need a change, and I think they need to be around other children and learn new things. It still doesn't make it an easy decision. At least I have 3 weeks to deal with it, get comfortable and pray it's a positive new beginning for our family. It's just going to be hard to leave these faces every day. I know I'm not the only one out there doing this, I've just been blessed to be home with them for the last few years.
I ran across this etsy shop while on cool mom picks holiday gift guide! Perfect for the graphic designers out there. They also offer font ones and other options. Very unique and funky!
Amazing typography. -
As I comb a sea of resources for a little design inspiration, I came across this and was blown away.
Can we please end the Daylight Savings? I feel like a walking zombie today and this is the time where you gain an hour. How exactly can this make me more tired than I already was?
See picture to get my full feeling on the subject.
Enough on that depressing feeling…I finally got some work today! Just updating some work that had been in process. More text changes than anything, but at this point I'm excited. I'm ready for new opportunities in life and new chapters. We will see which way it will go soon I'm certain.
On an even happier note, we had a small party for the birthday girl on Friday and it was a blast.
I can't believe my beautiful girl is 3!
Where did the time go?
I love her more and more each day.
So the site is up and finished! I'm so relieved and nervous. Wondering what the response will be. Wondering if it will get me more business…or a job. Something needs to happen. But I guess all of that is never on our timeline. What is meant to be will be. I'm proud of what I've done, really for the first time. I worked hard and it shows. And learned how to do a great website on my own along the way. I think I found something I love to do as well. I never thought I could handle the coding of an entire site, but I proved myself wrong. I've created two full sites in last few months. Reassuring to say the least. I hope everyone likes it!

text: Bishop of Antioch and heretic against whom probably three synods were held, 264-269, at Antioch. As he was the viceroy of Queen Zenobia, he was of considerable political importance and was notorious for his haughtiness, immoral life, and illicit acquisition of wealth. Considered a follower of Artemas, he held that the Word and the Holy Ghost were not Divine Persons, but simply Attributes of God, and denied the essential Divinity of Christ, claiming Him to be a mere man, born of a virgin, and inspired by God in a an unusual manner. After several synods convened against him had borne no results, he was condemned as a heretic and finally deposed. His followers did not disappear at once, and traces of his doctrines are found in the Lucianist and Arian Systems.New Catholic Dictionary
