Lot of Katharine stuff today, so for a bit of balance, a little Elliott news: He and his mother, Claudette, will appear on Richard Simmons' Sirius satellite radio show Sunday at 3 p.m. ET (Sirius Stars channel 102 for those of you who have such a media luxury item). The theme of the show is diabetes, a condition both Elliott and his mother suffer from, and it's part of a welter of charitable activities Elliott's involved in this week.
Wonder if Elliott ever dreamed, when he tried out for Idol, that he would be doing radio interviews with Richard Simmons? Life can be strange.
Nashville-based Brian Mansfield began writing about music for USA TODAY in 1997 and took over Idol Chatter just before the start of Season 8. He co-authored Make Me a Star: Industry Insiders Reveal How to Make It in Music, and while he has never auditioned for American Idol, he did sing Boot Scootin' Boogie at Disney World's American Idol Experience the day the attraction opened (he lost).

Question: Grandpa Joe s Cookie Company sells homemade cookies made with organic
Grandpa Joe's Cookie Company sells homemade cookies made with organic in gredients. His sales are strictly web based. The business is taking off more than Grandpa Joe ever expected, with orders coming from across the country from both consumers and corporate event planners. Grandpa decides to decentralize and hires a full- time baker who will manage production and product costs and a website designer/ sales manager who will focus on increasing sales through the website. Grandpa Joe can no longer handle the business on his own, so he hires a business manager to work with the other employees to ensure the company is best utilizing its assets to produce profit. Grandpa will then have time to focus on new product development.
Now that Grandpa Joe's Cookie Company has decentralized, identify the type of responsibility center that each manager is managing.

to be fecking sick of people telling me 'just tell him to...'(122 Posts)
My DP does sweet FA in the house and takes very little responsibility for anything at all. Friends keep telling me 'Just tell him you are not doing it anymore', 'Just telling him to do it himself' etc etc. Do they not realise that after 7 years I HAVE TOLD HIM THIS!
It has no effect. I tried not doing housework but cave and do dishes when I am forced to eat my cereal out of a cup/ have so much ironing needing done the cupboard I stuff it in wont close anymore etc.
I keep hearing 'I wouldn't stand for that' as if I am chosing it and don't mind - just pisses me off that people seem to think I want to be made to feel like a dick for 'letting' him not do any housework
I would leave over this. Not because of a few dishes or a bit of washing but because it shows a complete lack of respect, and what is a marriage without respect?
But if it's not a deal breaker for you then fair enough, everyone has options even if they don't want to take them
OP if he doesn't listen to you when you ask him to pull his weight around the house, what else doesn't he listen to you about? Are you allowed to have an opinion on other things, or does everything you say go in one of his ears and out the other? Does he have any respect for you at all?
It's not about a lack of respect in our relationship - although I appreciate that it can be in some. My DH just thinks differently to me. Mess doesn't bother him. He'll happily cook a meal, look after the DCs etc. but he wouldn't think to wash the dishes until he needed to use them again. He doesn't expect me to do it, he just doesn't expect it to be done at all until there's no option. I hate disorganisation though.
OP, how is it for you? Do you feel disrespected? Can you sit him down and tell him how you feel? I guess you've tried this though...
Momsnatter, do you do some things for your DH that you know he likes, but you might not otherwise do ? If so, why couldn't he do the same for you ?
My DH lives with mess blinkers on, I need to spell it out slowly over a number of weeks before it sinks in. He's 12 years older than me and perfectly capable of cleaning up (he's ex military), but seemingly he chooses to ignore it and leave it to me. Highly frustrating.
But if you have been complaining to your friends for 7 years the only advice is to
A put up with it
B make a stand - either verbally or by your actions ( e.g. striking)
C leave the bastard
There is nothing more anyone can say apart from tactics for choice b or c
Any yes, I think so. As he does for me - just not in the housework department.
My DH went through a phase of this. I told him that if wanted a mother to go back and live with her and that being treated like his mother was deeply unsexy as I didn't really feel like screwing my son. I then withheld sex or sexual contact. He sorted himself out very quickly. In fairness he wasn't usually like this and was in a bit of a bad place so giving him that kind of jolt worked wonders. This wasn't about trading sex, before any one misinterprets, but about being treated like a partner in life rather than his parent.
sorry meant to add, I can understand why you're irritated both with DH and the suggestions.
moms so what would he say if you said the one area you wanted him to please you in (bearing in mind he loves you and wants to make you happy, like you do for him) was the "housework dept" ?
the way you say "housework dept" says it all, if you think about it
like it's a whole area that is nothing to do with him
that isn't right, and it isn't fair
Any hmm not sure. I think if I made it clear it was really important to me he'd do it for a couple of weeks without me having to say anything and then it would tail off and i'd have to start reminding him again.
I think you're over thinking the wording though.
Mmm I think this thread is backfiring on the OP, who is not BU at all.
If there was an easy solution I am sure that the OP would have worked it out already.
and for the OP
moms I'm not overthinking anything, IMO. I guess it bothers some women more than others that they are expected to do all the shitwork, and have less leisure time than their partner simply because he possesses a cock. That is not meant to be a dig, btw, it's what we are talking about as the bottom line isn't it ?
I certainly would leave someone who treated me with such disrespect. In fact, as a poster above says, I wouldn't have married him in the first place.
It's not about 'not seeing the mess' it's about expecting someone else to pick up after you as though you're their maid.
And Helennn 'if push came to shove I think the hobby would win' -just...wow. How low must your self esteem be to want to be in a relationship like that?
I really do feel your pain because I'm in a similiar position. If I didn't clean up, dh would just ignore it anyway, so it would achieve nothing apart from a dirty place that I'd have to clean up anyway in the end
These men just don't understand that things would be a lot better for them if they just mucked in a bit more. Lazy feckers
I'd say he has less leisure time than me. Anyway i'll leave it now as i've hijacked the thread. OP hope you come to an agreement with your OH
"I keep hearing 'I wouldn't stand for that' as if I am chosing it and don't mind"
But you are effectively choosing it by remaining in the relationship ...
I'm the messy one in our relationship, DH is always clearing things up literally as soon as it's finished with, I've always been much more laid back about clutter. I don't expect him to clean up after me, I'm just happy enough for it to be left but as it's him who can't tolerate mess then I don't feel pressured to constantly tidy up all the time. I was happy enough living that way before we lived together and I don't think I should be forced to change my habits just because of DH's preferences really.
So I think if it is something that bothers you rather than him, imo the responsibility does fall on you since he's not really asking you to do the housework.
Would people genuinely leave over this. i mean really - even if you have kids?
Eventually, yes, some people would leave. My ex-h was similar and I honestly believe that he thought that I'd simply put up with his disinterest in helping around the house or with the dcs. That and his need to fit us around pub opening times. I tried any number of tactics from reason to strike action but nothing had any impact because, tbh, I think he'd happily have lived in a pig sty provided it had ready access to real ale.
I also think he was labouring under the misapprehension that he had other, irresistible qualities but in fact, his disinterest in taking any responsibility at home completely undermined such positive aspects as there had originally been in our relationship. I left when the dcs were 6 and 5 and II don't regret it for one moment.
I don't know whether your DP has any redeeming qualities, OP but I would say that after 7 years, you are unlikely to change his attitude.
Well, according to a load of people on the Asda Christmas advert thread, you should constantly be on the receiving end of a warm, satisfied glow from doing everything and not expecting anyone else in the house to lift a finger to help.
You're not, though, are you?
In fact, you're resentful as hell. Ask him how he expects you to have one iota of attraction for him, when he regards you as nothing more than a skivvy. Tell him that every single day this happens, your resentment builds up and up, and you love him and fancy him a little bit less.
Someone asked if I would leave over this. YES, ABSOLUTELY.
Firstly, because it would mean my DH had absolutely no respect for me and saw me only as his domestic help. How could I love and respect a man with no respect for me?
And secondly, because staying would it teach my daughters that is is normal and acceptable for a man to treat a woman this way, and normal and acceptable for a woman to accept it as her lot. And it isn't.
In fact, you're resentful as hell. Ask him how he expects you to have one iota of attraction for him, when he regards you as nothing more than a skivvy. Tell him that every single day this happens, your resentment builds up and up, and you love him and fancy him a little bit less.
I would also leave over this. Not the housework but the lack of respect, lack of teamwork, bad message to my DD, grinding down of my 'self'. It's not the dishes.
Get a cleaner.
I feel for you OP and echo Momsnetfer. It's not easy to leave a relationship either or necessarily to afford a cleaner.
You'll have told him 1000 times and sat down and discussed it, if he's anything like mine, he'll agree with me, be quite amazed that he is slovenly and say he'll do more - but nothing changes. If like me, you hate nagging, you just get on with it for a quiet life. It's not right at all, but when you've tried everything... Good luck OP, you're not going to get anymore joy from this thread than you do in RL, as people see it's not right and try and help by offering advice, ( I feel better reading your thread knowing I'm not the only one in this situation), tea, sympathy and cake for you.
OP - sounds like it's not just housework TBH, its the little responsibility for anything that concerns me.
But I hate it when people say "I wouldn't stand for that" because they don't know everything about a relationship .
SO I shall just offer you a

The HERricanes, a 14 and under all star softball team that contains members from the North Harrison, Salem, Silver Creek, Corydon Central, and South Central high school districts, is headed to the July 26-August 2 USSSA World Series in Orlando, Florida.
Despite the impending trip south, head coach Troy Sanders is calmly watching the team practice with assistant coaches Tony Shutters, Travis McAfee, and Steve Wooldridge.
As Sanders described the assistant coaches, "They're a huge help to me. They run practice, and allow me to coach."
Sanders said he likes to sometimes just sit and observe his hard working girls in action during practices, in order to better size up the team's strengths and weaknesses.

|View category for people with the McCarthy surname
|Search Wikipedia
McCarthy or MacCarthy (Mac Cárthaigh in Irish), meaning "son of Cárthach" (whose name meant "loving"), is a common surname that originated in Ireland. Several variants are found, such as McCarty (most common in North America) as well as Carthy and Carty (though these latter are also the Anglicization of an unrelated name, Ó Cárthaigh). 60% of people with the surname in Ireland still live in County Cork where the family was very powerful in the Middle Ages.
The origin of the name begins with Carthach, an Eóganacht Chaisil king, who died in 1045 in a house fire deliberately started by one of the Lonergans (who were members of the Eóganacht's arch-enemies, the Dál gCais). Carthach was a contemporary and bitter rival of the semi-legendary Brian Boru, and what would become known as the McCarthy Clan were pushed out of their traditional homelands in the Golden Vale of Tipperary by the expansion of the O'Brien sept in the middle of the twelfth century.
Carthach's son was known as Muireadhach mac Carthaigh (meaning "Muireadhach, son of Carthach"). Such ephemeral patronymics were common at the time. However, when Muireadhach died in 1092 his sons Tadhg and Cormac adopted Mac Carthaigh as an actual surname. Following the treaty of Glanmire in 1118, dividing the kingdom of Munster into Desmond and Thomond, this Tadhg became the first king of Desmond, comprising parts of the modern counties of Cork and Kerry. For almost five centuries they dominated much of Munster, with four major branches: those led by the MacCarthy Mór (Great MacCarthy), nominal head of all the MacCarthys, who ruled over much of south Kerry, the Duhallow MacCarthys, who controlled northwest Cork; MacCarthy Reagh or Riabhach ('grey') based in the Barony of Carbery in southwest Cork; and MacCarthy Muskerry, on the Cork / Kerry border.
Each of these families continued resistance to Norman and English encroachment up to the seventeenth century when, like virtually all the Gaelic aristocracy, they lost almost everything. An exception was Macroom Castle, which passed to the White family of Bantry House, descendants of Cormac Láidir Mac Cárthaigh. This was burnt in 1922 and is part of the local golf club today. [1]
The Muskerry McCarthy's historical seat is Blarney Castle in County Cork. Legend has it that the Blarney Stone was given as a gift to Cormac MacCarthy, King of Munster from Robert of Bruce who presented the 'magical' stone in gratitude for his assistance in the battle of Bannockburn in 1314. The third castle built on the site (the castle which stands to this day) was built by another McCarthy descendant, Dermot McCarthy, in 1446. Dermot was known for his eloquence, hence the Blarney Stone's reputation for imparting the gift of the gab upon those who kiss it.
The number of references to the MacCarthys in the Annals, especially the "Annals of Innisfallen", is very great. Carthach was the son of Saoirbhreathach, a Gaelic name which is anglicised as Justin, and in the latter form has been in continuous use among many branches of the McCarthys for centuries. Another male forename similarly associated with them is Finghin, anglice Fineen, but for some centuries past, the name Florence (colloquially Flurry) has been used as its English form. From the thirteenth century, when Fineen MacCarthy decisively defeated the Geraldines in 1261, down to the present day, Fineen or Florence MacCarthys and Justin MacCarthys have been very prominent among the many distinguished men of the name in Irish military, political and cultural history.
Until the dissolution of the kingdom in 1596, the crown was vested in the hereditary possession of the Mac Carthy (by the law of tanistry).
Septs Edit
Eleven septs of the illustrious McCarthy family in Kerry are given in Kings History of Co. Kerry
- (1) Sliocht Owen More of Coshmaing
- (2) Sliocht Cormaic of Dunguile
- (3) Sliocht Fineen Duff of Ardeanaght
- (4) Sliocht Clan Donell Finn
- (5) Sliocht nInghean Riddery
- (6) Sliocht Donell Brick
- (7) Sliocht Nedeen
- (8) Sliocht Clan Teige Kittagh
- (9) Sliocht Clan Dermod
- (10) Sliocht Clan Donell Roe
- (11) Sliocht MacFineen
The MacCarthys are closely related to a number of other Munster families. These include the O'Sullivans, O'Callaghans, O'Keeffes, O'Donoghues, and O'Donovans. An early sept of the MacCarthys themselves are the MacAuliffes.
Rulers of the Kingdom of Desmond, the MacCarthys stood among the greatest Irish dynasties of the last millennium.

Vidod the Monger is one of the Onceborn Malfeans who appears in Orpheus. He is essentially the ruler of the New York City Necropolis following the Sixth Great Maelstrom; this gives him the unique position of also being in control of the only known surviving Necropolis.
Vidod, who resembles a hideous and enormous insect-human hybrid, makes his home in Grand Central Station, towards the center of the massive Jumble. He has transformed the inside into a massive vault full of rare treasures he has scavenged or had others scavenge from the Shadowlands. Vidod can be bargained with for his wares, but it usually costs the interested party something they must think long and hard with before parting, be it memories of a loved one to their living body. Vidod almost always gets the better end of the deal, but as Grandmother draws closer to consuming everything, many would take the risk in order to save the Underworld and the Skinlands.
Vidod's motivation for taking over New York was not to rule over the ghosts, but to master the puzzling soul tornado that was somehow created in the Empire State Building.

Street Style at The Smithsonian National Portrait Gallery
For the new year I wanted to try something different: video street style. The Kogod Courtyard at the National Portrait Gallery is one of my absolute favorite places in Washington DC. Whenever I feel stressed out or uninspired, I come here and meditate on the surroundings.
What I'm wearing:

Time zone differences mean an extra-long main card for the Ultimate Fighting Championship's next pay-per-view.
Taking place Feb. 26 in Saitama, Japan -- or late Feb. 25 in North America -- UFC 144 will include seven fights and a broadcast window of four hours, the promotion said Tuesday. UFC pay-per-view broadcasts normally cover five bouts with up to three hours of TV time.
But for its first show in Japan since December 2000, UFC will stick to its normal pay-per-view start time of 10 p.m. ET Saturday to accomodate American TV viewers. Preliminary cards can start three hours before the pay-per-view, but with Saitama 10 hours ahead of the U.S. East Coast, that would mean a local start at 9 a.m. in Japan.
EDGAR: 'It's not about who can fight the hardest'
Rather than ask the audience in Japan to show up at an unusually early time for a sports event, UFC opted to shorten the preliminary card and lengthen the pay-per-view portion instead, said Anthony Evans, a spokesman for Zuffa.
In some ways, UFC faces a tough situation no matter which time it chooses. The length of the main card could push the headline bout of lightweight champion Frankie "The Answer" Edgar vs. Ben "Smooth" Henderson past 1 a.m. ET, a late hour for the titleholder's home base in New Jersey.
The seven fights for UFC 144's main card will include:
• Main event: Edgar vs. Henderson
• Co-main: Ryan "Darth" Bader vs. Quinton "Rampage" Jackson
• Mark Hunt vs. Cheick Kongo
• Yoshihiro "Sexyama" Akiyama vs. Jake Shields
• Joe Lauzon vs. Anthony "Showtime" Pettis
• Tim "The Barbarian" Boetsch vs. Yushin "Thunder" Okami
• Hatsu Hioki vs. Bart Palaszewski
Although a seven-fight card will be long for a UFC broadcast, it's short by the broadcast standards for Japanese organizations. Promoters such as Dream typically have their shows air almost in their entirety, often requiring an intermission for events such as an annual New Year's Eve extravaganza that can last more than eight hours.
UFC 144 will be the second of back-to-back longer main cards for the organization. Wednesday's UFC on Fuel 1 event (8 p.m. ET, Fuel TV) in Omaha features six fights for a three-hour broadcast.

Status Report
I just called the hospital and spoke to Dad's nurse and doctor. Medically, he's improved: producing urine, down to two liters of oxygen from six, vitals all normal. He's still altered, though, and they've had to mitt his hands to keep him from pulling out his IVs. They may transfer him to a medical floor today, if the nurses there can deal with the IV issue. I hope he won't need restraints, but if he does, he won't be the first person.
Meanwhile, I turned into a giant blob of jelly yesterday and got nothing done. So now I have to grade like a crazy person.
Which, of course, is pretty much what I am right now.
Meanwhile, my mother had a great day yesterday: went to PT twice, did some stair exercises, walked back to her room -- a long way -- with her walker. This is the woman who couldn't move herself in bed a week ago.
My sister and I have commented on how they flip-flop. Usually, one's doing well and one isn't, and periodically, they trade places.

I just found your blog and have just read a couple of posts, but have you considered consulting with a Geriatric Care Manager in your area? GCMs are a great resource and can give you some great advice about the best type of housing for his particular situation. Naturally where he is living at now they more than likely will try and keep him there as long as possible. A good GCM can give you an unbiased opinion about what is best for his situation. Another option is a Eldercare Advisor that assists families in finding the best senior housing that fits your budget and needs in your local area. A group home is sometimes a great alternative to a larger community. Again, not knowing what his needs are. Group homes can give more individualized attention in a residential type setting. Hope all works out well for you and your family.

Brian Dozier Bobblehead
On Saturday the Twins were giving out Brian Dozier bobble heads before the game against the Yankees. My uncle was nice enough to go for me as I had a baseball tournament and couldn't go. He got there VERY early and was able to get the bobble heads. Unfortunately, there is no good space on it to get Dozier's autograph. His helmet "flew off" and the legs may be too skinny. On the base of it might work or maybe across the forehead but i'm not sure.
I have a few cards out now including a 1986 Ron Gardenhire. Hope to get some returns soon!

Buick has announced that it is going to sell a rebadged version of the Chevy Volt in China as the Buick Velite 5.
It's been rumored and now we'll see if its true! Buick is reportedly going to reveal a new Regal wagon next month at the New York Auto Show. The Regal will be a rebadged version of Opel's Insignia Sports Tourer wagon that is sold in Europe.
Buick is going to unveil the all-new 2018 Enclave SUV next month at the New York Auto Show. In anticipation for its debut, Buick has released a teaser sketch of the new Enclave, which will continue to share its platform with the also new Chevy Traverse.
Buick has unveiled the Velite plug-in hybrid concept at the Auto Guangzhou 2016 in China. The Velite concepts a preview of future new energy vehicles under the brand's Buick Blue strategy.
Buick has released a teaser of its new Velite concept, which is going to make its global debut at the Guangzhou auto show on November 18.
For years wagons have been overshadowed by SUVs and minivans, but some automaker's like Volvo have continued to offer them. Buick may soon enter the segment with a wagon version of the Regal. A new report claims that the next Regal will be offered with a wagon version.
Even though Buick unveiled an all-new Verano compact sedan last year in China, it's being reported that the Verano's days are numbered in the U.S.
Just like its cousin, the Chevy Trax, the Buick Encore small SUV is getting some styling updates for the 2017 model year. With more refined styling and updated technology, the Encore will likely continue to hold its title as the best selling model in the Buick lineup.
Buick has released two rear-wheel drive concepts in the last year, but neither of the may ever see production.
Coming off the success of the Encore and Enclave crossovers, Buick is now adding another crossover to its lineup - the 2016 Envision.
Although Buick has unveiled the new 2016 Envision crossover at the Detroit Auto Show, the new Avista concept will likely steal the spotlight. The 2+2 concept is a sexy coupe that Buick says "rekindles its historic performance roots."
Buick is going to unveil the all-new 2017 LaCrosse later this month at the Los Angeles Auto Show and now we have our second teaser of the new sedan.
It's been 25 years since Buick offered a convertible in the United States and the wait is over with the arrival of the 2016 Cascada. Buick has announced that when the Cascada arrives early next year, it will be priced at $33,900.
Buick has announced that the all-new 2017 LaCrosse is going to debut in November at the 2015 Los Angeles Auto Show. Buick has released a teaser photo of the new LaCrosse, which is going to get some of the design cues from the Avenir concept.
GM has announced that several 2016 Chevy, Buick, GMC and Cadillac models will offer 22 different active safety technologies.
Buick has revealed a new sportier version of the 2016 Encore crossover - the Encore Sport Touring. The new sportier Encore Sport Touring features a more powerful engine and a few unique design cues.
Buick has announced that the 2016 Buick Enclave is now available with OnStar 4G LTE connectivity with a built in Wi-Fi hotspot. The Wi-Fi hotspot can be used by up to seven devices at once and is on whenever the vehicle is on.
Cadillac officially unveiled the 2016 Cadillac CT6 earlier this month at the 2015 New York Auto Show and now rumors are circulating about how GM could use the CT6's Omega platform for other vehicles.
Buick has unveiled a new version of the Enclave SUV - the 2016 Enclave Tuscan Edition, which is highlighted by a bronze-tone grille and 20-inch chrome-clad wheels with bronze accents.
Buick just surprised everyone by unveiling the new Avenir concept at the Detroit Auto Show. Avenir, which is French for "future" is a new interpretation of traditional Buick cues.

Social Media Toolkit
Welcome to the Social Media Toolkit!
As if we didn't have enough to do paving roads, fixing broken water mains, and cleaning sewers, along comes this thing called social media and now everyone wants to know if we're on Facebook or Twitter. The good news is that social media does offer us an opportunity to better communicate with each other and the communities in which we work. The only problem is figuring out what exactly it is and how to use in the limited amount of time we have each day.
This site was set up to help you with all of that! We will post information and resources you can use to figure out just what social media means. And we will give you examples of how it's being used in public works by people just like you!
And because we know you are busy, we put together a newsletter that can be delivered directly to your email each month so you don't have to keep coming back here to check for new information. So before you leave to check out that last work order, fill in the box to the right and subscribe to our newsletter!

This Week in UK Football History: Tennessee Edition
On Thursdays throughout the 2015 season we will take a trip down memory lane and look back at past great plays, players and games associated with University of Kentucky football for that given week. So be sure to check back with us each and every Thursday to relive the moments that make this football program so special.
Nov. 22
• 1969: Steve Parrish had a career-high 135 receiving yards, at the time tied for the sixth most in school history, as the Wildcats were narrowly defeated by their border rival Tennessee, 31-26.
• 1975: Quarterback Derrick Ramsey was spectacular both on the ground and through the air, but it wasn't enough for Kentucky as the Tennessee Volunteers squeaked out a 17-13 win over the Wildcats. Ramsey rushed for 121 yards, his first career 100-yard rushing game, and his 77-yard touchdown pass to Dave Trosper was at the time tied for the third-longest passing play in school history. This was also the last game ever played at Kentucky for running back great Sonny Collins, still the school's all-time leading rusher.
• 1997: Kentucky had a tough time stopping No. 5 Tennessee in a 59-31 loss on Senior Day at Commonwealth Stadium, but it was a showdown between the opposing quarterbacks that most people remember from this game. Sophomore quarterback Tim Couch and Volunteers' senior quarterback Peyton Manning put on an aerial show worthy of the air raid sirens inside the stadium. The two signal callers combined to pass for 999 yards and seven touchdowns. Couch set then-school records for total offense (475 yards) passing yards (476), and consecutive completions (13). Tim's 87-yard touchdown pass to wide receiver Kio Sanford in the second quarter was at the time the second-longest passing play in school history. All those offensive fireworks led to the Wildcats accumulating 634 yards of total offense, at the time the second most in school history. Kio Sanford finished the game with a career-high 147 receiving yards and running back Derek Homer had a career-high 137 rushing yards as well. To top it all off, a crowd of 61,076 attended the game, then a record for largest crowd ever at Commonwealth Stadium.
Nov. 23
• 1957: Kentucky upset No. 12 Tennessee 20-6 in Lexington.
• 1991: Kentucky lost to border rival Tennessee 17-6 in Lexington, but it was in the press box, not the field, that was most memorable on this day. The Voice Of The Wildcats, Cawood Ledford, sadly called his last Kentucky football game on that day. Ledford, primarily known for his calls of Kentucky men's basketball games, had called games for the Wildcats for 39 years.
• 1996: Kentucky lost to No. 9 Tennessee 56-10 in the final game under head coach Bill Curry.
Nov. 24
• 1962: Darrell Cox rushed for 111 yards, his first career 100-yard rushing game, as the Wildcats defeated their border rival Tennessee, 12-10.
• 1973: Mike Fanuzzi rushed for 160 yards, his first career 100-yard rushing game and at the time the most rushing yards by a quarterback in school history, but it wasn't enough for the Wildcats as Tennessee escaped Lexington with a 16-14 victory.
• 1979: Chris Jones rushed for 112 yards, his fourth and final career 100-yard rushing game, as Kentucky lost to border rival Tennessee, 20-17.
• 1984: George Adams rushed for 110 yards, his 10th and final career 100-yard rushing game, as the Wildcats defeated the Volunteers, 17-12. That is currently the last time that Kentucky has defeated Tennessee in Knoxville.
• 2007: Kentucky went toe-to-toe with No. 19 Tennessee in an instant classic, but the Wildcats failed on a two-point conversion in the fourth overtime as the Volunteers prevailed, 52-50. Senior quarterback Andre' Woodson didn't disappoint in his final home game at Kentucky, attempting 62 passes, tied for the third most ever, with six touchdowns, also tied for the third most ever, and a career high 430 yards, the ninth most in school history. The offense was also led by a pair of 100-yard receivers, Rafael Little (108) and Jacob Tamme (104). The Wildcats also set school records for most offensive plays (110), most first downs (37), and most first downs by passing (27).
Nov. 25
• 1915: Kentucky shut out border rival Tennessee 6-0 in the school's first ever Homecoming game.
• 1949: The Wildcats effectively moved the chains via the ground game, setting a then-school record with 23 first downs by rushing, in Kentucky's 21-6 victory over the Miami Hurricanes.
• 2006: Tight end Jacob Tamme had a career-high 120 receiving yards and running back Rafael Little rushed for 119 yards, his seventh career 100-yard rushing game, as Kentucky was narrowly defeated by border rival Tennessee, 17-12.
Nov. 26
• 1948: Ralph Genito rushed for a career-high 139 yards as Kentucky defeated the Miami Hurricanes, 25-5. One of Ralph's carries was an 83-yard touchdown, at the time the second-longest running play in school history.
• 2011: Wide receiver Matt Roark put in a truly heroic effort in a game that many Wildcat fans could rejoice about. With the starting and backup quarterbacks unable to play, Matt Roark lined up behind center for the only time in his college career and it paid off quite well for Kentucky. Roark rushed for a career-high 124 yards as the Wildcats defeated Tennessee 10-7 for the first time since 1984.
Nov. 27
• 2004: Lonnell Dewalt used his height to his advantage on special teams, setting a school record with two blocked kicks, but it wasn't enough for the Wildcats as Tennessee scored a touchdown in the final minute to defeat Kentucky, 37-31. The offense was led by Scott Mitchell's career-high 111 receiving yards.
• 2010: Randall Cobb was a reliable target for Mike Hartline, resulting in 13 receptions, the second most in school history, and 116 yards in Kentucky's 24-14 defeat to border rival Tennessee.
Nov. 28
• 1935: Kentucky defeated border rival Tennessee 27-0, their largest shutout win ever against the Volunteers in Lexington.
• 2009: Randall Cobb rushed for 101 yards, his second career 100-yard rushing game, as the Wildcats lost a heartbreaker to border rival Tennessee in overtime, 30-24.

NBER Reporter: Winter 2000/2001
Hsieh and Romer consider the $1 billion expansionary open market operation undertaken in the spring of 1932 as a crucial case study of the link between monetary expansion and expectations of devaluation. They use data on forward exchange rates to measure expectations of devaluation during this episode but find little evidence that the large monetary expansion led investors to believe that the United States would devalue. The financial press and the records of the Federal Reserve System also show little evidence of expectations of devaluation or fear of a speculative attack. The authors find that a flawed model of the effects of monetary policy and conflict among the 12 Federal Reserve banks, rather than concern about the gold standard, led the Fed to suspend the expansionary policy in the summer of 1932.
A number of studies have used quarterly data to estimate monetary policy rules or reaction functions. These rules seem to imply a very slow adjustment of the policy interest rate: about 20 percent of the target per quarter. The conventional wisdom is that this gradual adjustment reflects policy inertia or interest rate smoothing behavior by central banks. However, Rudebusch notes that such slow quarterly adjustment implies predictable future variation in the policy rate at horizons of several quarters. In contrast, evidence from the term structure of interest rates suggests that there is no information about such changes in financial markets. Rudebusch provides an alternative interpretation: the large lag coefficients in the estimated policy rules may reflect persistent special factors that cause the central bank to deviate from the policy rule in unpredictable ways.
Svensson and Woodford derive and interpret the optimal weights on indicators in models with partial information about the state of the economy and forward-looking variables, for equilibriums under discretion and under commitment. They examine an example of optimal monetary policy with a partially observable potential output and a forward-looking indicator. The optimal response to the optimal estimate of potential output displays certainty-equivalence, while the optimal response to the imperfect observation of output depends on the noise in this observation.
The U.S. economy has experienced a dramatic decline in the volatility of both inflation and output since the early 1980s. Kahn, McConnell, and Queros examine two competing explanations for this. The first is the popular view that improved Fed policy since the late 1970s is chiefly responsible. The second view asserts that improvements in information technology have stabilized aggregate output variability, primarily through their effects on inventory behavior. The authors model the joint determination of output, inflation, and policy in an optimizing framework and argue that the technology story plays the primary role in explaining the relative stability of the last two decades.
While staggered price setting models are increasingly popular in macroeconomics, recent empirical studies question their ability to explain short-run inflation dynamics. Jadresic shows that a staggered price setting model that allows for a flexible distribution of price durations can replicate the persistence of inflation found in the data. The model also can explain the empirical regularity that, although inflation surprises are followed by a period of slow output growth, booms in output growth are followed by a period of high inflation. The distribution of price durations that yields these results, estimated from aggregate data on prices and other variables, is consistent with the microeconomic evidence suggesting that the duration of prices and wages is about a year on average, but that there is a great deal of heterogeneity across individual prices and wages.
Tornell presents an alternative expectation formation mechanism that helps rationalize well-known asset pricing anomalies, such as the predictability of excess returns, excess volatility, and the equity-premium puzzle. As with rational expectations (RE), the expectation formation mechanism that Tornell considers is based on a rigorous optimization algorithm that does not presume misperceptions -- it simply departs from some of the implicit assumptions that underlie RE. The new element is that uncertainty cannot be modeled via probability distributions. Tornell considers an asset pricing model in which uncertainty is represented by unknown disturbance sequences, as in the H-infinity-control literature. Agents must filter the "persistent" and "transitory" components of a sequence of observations to make consumption and portfolio decisions. Tornell finds that H-infinity forecasts are more sensitive to news than RE forecasts and that equilibrium prices exhibit the anomalies previously mentioned.

Act as a voice for the sustainable and responsible finance industry in the UK to inform and influence stakeholders such as asset owners, politicians and regulators
Provide networking and member support that enables individuals and businesses to develop and grow. We will actively co-operate with other sector organisations to maximise the sector's collective strength.
Planned activity
Our focus will vary over time as needs and opportunities arise. For instance, in 2015 the General Election and inter-governmental initiatives such as COP 21 warrant attention. Our current plans for day-to-day activity in 2014/5 which include our campaigns Good Money Week and Ownership Day are outlined in this summary of the strategy:
UKSIF Strategy One-Pager
Recent and ongoing activity
Our recent work includes:
Championing long-term responsible ownership and investment to public policy-makers and industry opinion formers
We contributed to the Law Commission review of Fiduciary Duty and took a delegation of members to meet the Commission to discuss points of detail on stewardship. We will meet the FCA and the Pensions Regulator to discuss how those bodies may take Law Commission recommendations forward.
Assisting our members to develop their practices
We delivered our analyst seminar programme to catalyse debate on emerging environmental, social and governance issues and assist our members to develop their practices. Topics included fracking, tax responsibility and sustainable investing in China. Other activities include the annual Extel SRI & Sustainability Survey, the UKSIF Annual Lecture (insert link) and our support for the City of London's Sustainable City Awards.
Networking for impact
UKSIF was a founder member of the European Sustainable Investment Forum (Eurosif) and the Global Sustainable Investment Alliance, an increasingly strong global network of regional and national sustainable investment membership organisations. We expect to work with these bodies on the inter-governmental initiatives which will reach conclusion in 2015.
Good Money Week
Good Money Week (formerly called National Ethical Investment Week) is a campaign to ensure that everyone knows that they have sustainable and ethical options for their finance and investment decisions. The Week brings together individuals, advisers, charities, financial organisations, faith groups and NGOs to spread the word about sustainable and ethical investing.
Ethical Investment Association and the Transparency Code
The Ethical Investment Association (EIA) is UKSIF's financial adviser chapter. Members commit to support increased access to advice on green and ethical investments and to improve their own expertise. We support the EIA in holding regular training conferences and providing networking and marketing support. UKSIF and the EIA champion the European SRI Transparency Code which encourages product providers to demonstrate their commitment to transparency on green and ethical issues.
Support for Pension Funds and Charity Investors
We support and encourage institutional asset owners to adopt more sustainable and responsible investment strategies by providing practical information, signposting and free affiliation. Each spring we run Ownership Day which raises awareness of the financial benefits of active ownership by pension funds.
