SLgETINQ OH THE CITIZBN.S AT ALBCRQUERQUB, A large meeting of the citizens of Alhuryin^uc is held at the Atlantic and Pacific Railroad Ho- I on Thursday, December 9th, 1858, Judge W. F. Boone was called to the chair ; Hon, S. M. Laird explained the object of the meeting. The followiug resolutions were adopted : Whereas, the emigrants to California who pa sed through this/place last sufmner on the Albuquerque route were iniereepted and attacked on their way at the Rio Colorado by the Mohave Indians and robbed of nearly all their property, a portion of them brutally murdered, the balance being reduced to the necessity of returning to this place in a starving aud nearly naked condition ; and whereas, it has proved mis fe and impracticable to pass through on ?aid route with the'United Statesman in consequence of the hostility of said Indians: and whereas, the mail party which recently started from Alburquerque to Neosho, have also been brutally murdered by the Kiowas and Comanche In- diaus on the plains ; aud whereas tbe mail party from Neosho as well as Lieut. Beale have failed to come through with hie road party and a strong escort, and are reported to have turned back in consequence of the hostility ol said Indians; and whereas, we are Batified that this ie the most practicable and .hortest route for the mail as well as ra.lroad. aud deem its protection oi paramount importance; It iy therefore Resolved, Tbat we aie ol ihe opinion that there ought to be a strong military post placed without delay on the Colorado of thei Westinthe heart of the Mohave naiioii uiiincbe and Kiowa country""ch' the Aib'.'ifijUeriVue and Neosho mail route. Resolved. That we are of the opinion that these two posts sufficiently manned will be adequate to keep said route open and safe for the mail as well as emigrants, and that the establishment of said is would be an act of justice due said emigrauts, the region of country traversed by said route as welt as to this Terrilory. Resolved, That we will me all honorable means n our power to procure, the speedy fstabliebment of said posts. Resolved, That we deeply sympathize with the ".,iSlants who met with the sad misi'ortuno referred to on the Colorado of the West, as well as with he frieuds of the mail party murdered on their vay fiom Alburquerque to Neosho. The United Slates District Court for tbe Second Judicial District, was organized on the loth ult, On the 17th the Grand Jury brought in one indictment fbr larceny and two tor niurd> r. On the 18th one i'or rape, oue for au assault upon au officer and two for murder. Ou tbe 20ih the Grand Jury returned a true bill against tbe Catholic Priest, Peter John Mounk-utn for the murder ol Pries! E. M. Abel, in tbe church at Moro by poisoning. The Grand Jury having brought into Court several other indictments lor criminal offenses of various grades, were discharged from-further duty. The Courl adjourned sine die after a session uf ten days. The case that excited the most interest was that of the Territory vs. Priest Peter John Monnicum. The deceased aud the prisoner at the bar were at the time oL the poisoning, 3rd. ol August last, both officiating clergymen oi the Catholic church at Moro in ibis diocese. The former, Father Abel, upon his death bed. persisted in accusing the prisoner as his murderer, after having been repeatedly warned by one ofthe witnesses of the importance of such an accusation. The bottle of wine containing the fatal poison was that used at tbe Holy Sacrament or in saying mass at tbe altar, and the dy- ins priest declared tbat no one but bimselfand the accused had or could bave access to the wine : it was established, however, that though this was very probably true, the contrary was possible. So fix-id did the belief appear lo be in Father Abel that Father Monnicum was his murderer, that when the latter was suggested as Ihe priest to officiate at the deathbd, the lormer replied that he ••aid not want his murderer to administer to him" —that hedid not want Monnicuin's:,ame mentioned to him—for that, the person that had poisoiicu him was unfit to administer the si crament." The evidence was entirely circumstantial, and we understand that in the opinion of most persons who beardthetrial.it was not at all conclusive of the Eu'ilt oi the prisoner, whom the jury after a shbrt absence found not guilty by the lolluwing verdict : "Nosotros, los miembros del pequeno jttrado, unaiiinieniente hallanos sin culpa al acusado.'' The Legislature ot the Terrilory met iu regular annual session in this city on Monday last, and rath House completed its organization on the.foi lowing day.

In a special message to the Legislature, Gov* Kencher gives tbe following information regarding the Navajoe war :— At present the war is suspended. The Indiana sued for peace, aud the Indian Agent aud Military Commander believing the Indians sufficiently castigated and humbled, agreed to an aimistice for thirty days. Tbe Armistice provided ouly for the surrender, by the Indians, ol properly taken from the Fort and whieh belonged to thc United Slates, but did uot provide for the surrender ol private property taken by the Indians during the war from the citizens of the Territory. The Armistice did not provide for the surrender of the murderer, which was the cause of the war, nor even for the payment of the negro boy who was murdered, although the Indians, before the war, agreed to pay any price for hiin, however extravagant. If therefore the Navajoes have been castigated and humbled, the armistice unfortunately aftords no evidence of it. The Superiutendont of Indian Affairs and the Commander of the Military Department left-Santa Fe a few days ago, for the seat of war. I have been assured by tbern, that they will consent to no peace upon tbe terms of the Armistice. They will requtre at least tbe surrender of private as well aa public property taken by the Indians during the war, and a meridian liue shall be established, east of which tbe Navajoes shall neither plant, nor gra"e their stock. A peace less favorable to us would be unjust, a mere delusion, aud could not last. —-i«> .. «_ » i ltt. _—-. The Cliemlstiyof'Wine. The chemical component' of grape juice, are grape and fruit sugars, gelatinous matter or pectin, gum, fat, wax, vegetable albumen and vegetable gluton, tartaric acid, both free and combined with potash as cream of tartar, partly also coni- alumnia ; further, oxide of iron and oxide ofimig- nese, sulphate of lime, magnesia, and silicoic acid. The skins, stones, and stalks all yield tannic acid, turning brown by exposure to the atmosphere — becoming, in fact, that Cinderella of the chiiu- its known as apothema—gives its browu hue to (unadulterated) white wine. For there is no such thing a= a purely colorless wine ; even tbe celebrated Vino cebedino, called colorless, is a pale yellow This is the reason, too, why raisins are uniformly dark skinned, whether they be of purple or white grapes ; the tannic ucidm their skins turnirg brown by exposure to the air in the process of drying. The pur|.de grape has, besides this tannic acid, a coloring matter of its own. whicb is. properiy, a distinct blue, but by the action of acids is converted"-into a deep or red purple. In unripe grapes saiurated witb acids, it is a bright ted. as we all have seen ; and young wine is always bright and more brilliant than that which has matured. As tbe grape ripens, so does Ihc skin, or rather tlie coloring matter, become more purple or blue.— The less acid the darker the skin, till ever-ripe purple grapes becomes positively black. Bbt even tbis deep color gradually changes by age as well as by exposure, and the bright red ofthe young wine—due partly to an excess of phosphor ie acid—by degrees sobers and mellows into lhe •tawny [ ort" so near to connoisseurs; that is, the tannic acid is converted into apotbema, aud with the acid goes therul'y-like color. In tbe best Burgundy and colored Champagne thc skins remain in the liquid from two to three days, this is to color them; in Medoc six days ; eight days in the French wines of tbe south ; aud fourteen in the dark astringeus via ordinaire of the table d'hote. To clear white wines, also to make tliem lighter if too dark, albumen and isin- gl.ss are used. This is the mode by whieh white port wiue is obtained. In Spain they use powder ed marble for the purpose ; iu otber countries gypaum and sand : also filling up any deficiency iu tbe casks with clay and sand. In warm climafeti neither albumen nor isinglass is used, as ihese, being animal substances, would decompose too readily : as, indeed, th-ry do in colder climates when used to excess. Powdered gum-arab;c is substituted ; dried blood, milk and cream are abo used, as well as lime Lime seems to be the best for thc purpose, muliing the wine sweeter ari'l lest" astrringent, and giving it the appearance of age. If used in excess, it turns the wine browu. Speaking of albumen, one reason who Burgundy is a bad keeping wine is owing to the free use of albumen and isinglass. Containing but little tannic acid in the beginning, these animal subslnnces readily decompose, and the cask " goes to the bad - after a very short time. Tokay is made from grapes, which have almost dried on the vines : and all the so-called Tin sec assumes to be made under the like conditions.— Vin de paille is from grapes dried oo straw, and Vm cotti from boiled juice. All these processes have the same object—namely, the evaporation of the watery particles in the grape, thus leaving only a'rich. pure, alcoholic juice. We say aleo holic, though perhaps, we ought to bave said saccharine ; but tbey are almost synonomous terms ; for the more sugar there is in the grape, the more alcohol there will he in the wine. Otic hundred nnd ninety-eight of sugar gives ninety-two ofal- cohol ; tbus. if onr strong ports give sixteen per cent, of alcohol, the grape must Lave had thirty- four per cent, of sugar; which, if not impossible, seeing it is affirmed that tven forty per cent, of solid particles of sugar may be obtained from r pe grapes, is, at least, an unusual average. Fie and German grapes give from seven to fifteen per cent., hut tbe usual figures range from thirteen io thirty. Iu Holland it is only from ten to twei Grape sugar is obtained by bnilibg the juice with ,.biilk to salurate the free acids, theu filtering the liquid and washing the precipitate. Theliquid is ihen mixed with albumen, boiled, filtered, aud evaporated, wben the crystals of sugar are deposited,—Household Words. Virginia is in debt to the amount of $28,812.996** Tho -'Mother of Presidents" is poor, but she illustrates the old proverb that "pride and poverty go together." San Fi-mitisoo Correspond«n««a San FftATScisco, C-L . January 10th, 1869. Dkar Htah—The President's Message is still cnIL jVlgout the "opinions ofthe press" in this city, but it will be remembered that ii is only that part'of thc ''press" which is und always haa beeu opposed to true Dmnoei-at-ic principles. No sane man of tra» Democratic faith ever expected that James Buchanan could possibly deliver a massage that would meet with the approbation of the Black Republicans, Fremoruites. the defunct Whig party, and the tag-end of that stupenduous humbug —the Know Nothing party. It is amusing to read the ' leaders" that are pulled off by some of lhe papers, which belong to one or the other of the above named parties, when attempting to find fault with the views and principles of the present Chief' Magistrate of tbe United States. Well may they any, "as me expected, the President's Messago bus failed to failed to give satisfaction,"— "almost the last thing noticed bv the Pre f- OeiiL m nis Mww^c, ...... ti.o i>_c'';<, iinit..__ "_. "the attempt of James Buchanan, in his Lecompiou policy, to crush ont public sentiment, and force upou the people a law which is unjust." These and many other faults are found with tbe views and policy of President, Buchanan, wliich, like those alreadv quoted, are too insignificant and unfounded t» require even a passing notice. We would ask, do those men who wiite Buch things believe that there is a. single Democrat ol tho right grit stupid enough to believe that these reasons and objections which ara urged against the present Administration to be trim and sincere ? No, not at all, ihey are only pretended, and havo not. the least spark of sincerity about them. It is plain to any unprejudiced man, that President Buchanan could not have delivered a message that would have corresponded with their anticipations. If President B.ichanan had devoted his entire message tothe important subject of the Pacific Railroad, that would nol have been according to their anticipations. Ii President Buchanan had disregarded the law of thc Uuited States—allowed Mr, Douglas to be President for him—agreed with him upon bis anti-Lccompton hiuiibugrv—thi. would not. have been according tothe approbation ofthese fastidious pany leaders. Now, why are these men such Muggins' hs to give iliesc aa iheir reasons for opposing the present Administration ! They know that the Democrats are not to beguiled with such fal-lal and stuff. Then why do they not come out as men in their true characters, though it be as black as night, and give ther true reasons? We know that James Buchanan is only a man, _ faithful, honest and wise statesman, ami as ail ara liable to go wrong, he might do so too. Bat that is not the question. We presume that no President, from the immortal Washington down to James Buchanan, that has ever delivered a message, but what there were some to find fault, and o'hers to complain that the laws and des'iuv ofthe United State* Iind 'siri.ni l-nfaiihiulty guarded. Then, we s.v again, in view of these unni^tako.iblc facts, why is it that those men endeavor to put forward those reasons, "nstcad of those that are real? Their reasons for "o doing is not not a secret confined entirely within thetr own ranks, but they are so well known that it I'ouhl be fo ly to consume time and space to enumerate them. We say, gentlemen, come out iu your real characters—fight your battles fairly, then, ifyou should gain a victory, it will be some credit to you Never annjilr .njv.iv in ..n.j", ,!-it!; i-'ni-Jif.-i; svirl build lltl mount- til vou liave gaiiieu niein. me laufdiS WKith yAt. are so sanguine of achieving in I860, we sincerely believe are not in store for you. The victories which you claim now. and the defeat (if any) which " Democratic party has sustained, will only aerva stimulant to the Inko warm, and those who had become careless and slack hi their tiaces. The Democratic party in I8tii) will be as a band of brolherbood, fii m, united, faithful 'to iheir principles, and to that time-honored party will be a tri- umphani victory. The citizens of San Jose were thrown iuto great excitement on Friday, 'ith inst., by an afliay which took place near the seventeen mile bowse, on the ranch of Thoms Seal. It appears that tbe property was under dispute between Seal and two brother! by the name of Shore. The last-menlioncd pany t to the said ranch and commenced putting up a house, from which they were forbidden by Seal. A heated altcrcatioa and a fight ensued, and all kinds of weapons were used. In the fight, one of the bi others Shoie was killed, and the other wound- Seal was wounded with an axe, besides a shot in the leg. Upon Uie advice of bis friends, Seal went to >'an Jose and gave himself up to the authorities, and was placed in custody. While the Coroner's examination was progressing, a company of over one hundred men collected with the avowed ntention of taking possession of the jail and hang- ng the prisoner. The Sheriff ordered out. two companies of military to guard the jail. 'Ihe citizens were summoncd'to assist, in quelling any disturbance against the law. The mi it.ary responded to the call promptlv. as well ns lhe citi/.ensof the'place, and at. lust accounts the excitement had subsided. It is beyond a doubt tbat Seal acted entirely in self defenee. We are sorry to communicate the sad fact, that there has been another disgraceful attempt made by the mobiles to take the law into the r own hands, aud bring disgrace upou our young and flourishing State. These dis_rn_efui proceedings are entirely of loo frequent occurrence and those who engage in them should be punished to the toil extent of the law, and tfaottid be frowned upon hy alt law-abiding and good citizens.— More anon. 1KB. Small Pwguixu.—A New York correspondent of a Boston paper says that a curious fact dps just leaked out of lbe City Hall, in the foimer place. Can such things be? It will be recollected that, when tbe cable celebration took pi, ce bere. Cyrus W. Field, and Cap- fains Hudson, Preedy an.l Daymen, were supposed to have beeu presented with a gold box each by the Commou Council. But the public were humbugged—they were only gilded wooden boxee made for tho purpose, but the recipients, were privately assured that the real gold boxes would noon be ready, and replace the imitations. But lo I three montl s have passed -itice that notable event; the cable is a failure, and the real Simon Puree are not yet forthcoming. Tbe inquiry, theu, naturally is. what has become of the money appropriated for lhat purpose? That's tbe rub. One ofthe Western editors, speaking of a large and fat colemporary. remarked tbat if all fttfh was grass he must be a load of bay. "J suspect 1 am," replied the fat man, "from tbe way the asses are nibbling at me." Sume one gives this cogent advice to bachelors. '■Be sure to annex a woman who will lilt you up, instead of pushing you down —in mercantile phrase, get hold of a piece of calico that will wash." It Ib better to hug a pretty girl that a " bare illusion'' says an exchange. Of course it It, for a pretty girl will letnrn the compliment, and the illusion will not. That's so. Why are ladies the biggest thieves in existence? Be.ausetbey steel tbe petticoats, bone the slaye, crib tbe babies, and hook belore people s laces.

Enrico Fermi - Trailblazer in Nuclear Physics
Enrico Fermi dominated the field of physics, as his work greatly advanced scientists' understanding of atomic behavior. The book covers his family ackground, his precocious interest in math and science, his preparation for his career, and his professional work. Because of Italy's repressive form of government in the 1920s and 1930s, Fermi always felt that he should emigrate. But the government would not let its citizens just leave. Fermi's oppo...

but in my case I have modified a little bit :
-one onion
-some garlic
-300-400g of meat
-one pack of spaghetti barilla
-dolmio or any tomato sauce would do
-chili (piper cayenne)
The mixing and the process is the same so i will quote him
You need some ground meat (pork or beef I like the mixed), an onion, some garlic and tomato sauce. First you need to chop the onion and put it the pot with some olive oil for a few minutes. Then put the meat in the pot and stir until the meat turns brow. At this point you can season the food with the garlic, some chili, salt & pepper, paprika and my favorite spice bay leaves. after the meat got brown you can add the tomato sauce and you can season it with oregano and basil. When the meat is cooked you put it on the cooked spaghetti. Enjoy
Don't put too much paprika it can burn twice (quote from wikipedia)
According to an old Hungarian saying, good paprika burns twice. Paprika contains strong spices, these may cause a burning sensation in the mucuous membranes of the anus.
It can be served with wine , i would love to have some white wine but only got some red one in the fridge
The meat was so good that when tasting if is cooked that i couldn't stop to keep tasting i can say it eats itself

Don't let summer pneumonia get the best of your calves and their respiratory health.
Calving season is nearly finished, and cow/calf pairs are out to grass. However, even though the herd is on grass, calves at this age are still susceptible to disease. Respiratory disease may challenge calves even if you've been vigilant in vaccinating the cows and the herd seems healthy.
Suckling calves on pasture are susceptible to respiratory disease, commonly known as "summer pneumonia," during July, August and September. While the calf isn't facing most of the common stressors that cause disease — commingling, transportation, stress and confinement — certain weather conditions can cause problems. Warm daytime temperatures that contribute to heat stress, combined with cooler nights and lack of plentiful fresh water, can wreak havoc on their immune systems. This worsens in areas where warm temperature is combined with high humidity. The temperature swings, combined with dust, dry pasture conditions and declining maternal immunity, can result in stress and increased susceptibility to disease.
"To prevent pneumonia, it is important to vaccinate those young calves at spring turnout, or branding time," says Dr. Jerry Woodruff, Professional Services Veterinarian with Boehringer Ingelheim Vetmedica, Inc. "The thought years ago was that these young calves didn't have an advanced-enough immune system to respond to vaccines, but we've discovered that they do respond very well to vaccines at a young age."
Dr. Woodruff adds that it is important to prevent disease during the summer months because it is more difficult to observe and treat while calves are on pasture.
Protecting calves against known causes of summer pneumonia, including bacteria like Mannheimia haemolytica, which is commonly found in the nasal passages of calves, is key to helping prevent respiratory disease. Viruses found in the cow/calf herd, such as IBR, BVD and BRSV, can also promote bacterial infections in the lungs once the colostral antibodies diminish in the calf.
If your cow herd has already been vaccinated pre-breeding with a modified-live virus (MLV) vaccine, it is safe to use that modified-live virus vaccine on your suckling calves. Dr. Travis Van Anne, a Professional Services Veterinarian with Boehringer Ingelheim Vetmedica, Inc., recommends using an MLV vaccine in cows and calves, if possible, to help ensure a more complete immune response in the calf crop.
"I believe a five-way MLV vaccine is needed in the spring. A vaccine like Pyramid® 5 + Presponse® SQ will give you coverage against BVD, IBR, PI3 and BRSV, as well as protection against Mannheimia haemolytica. This will help protect the calf against summer pneumonia," Dr. Van Anne says.
He adds, "The shots we give at branding, or spring turnout, prime the immune system in that calf so when he receives the next vaccination around weaning time, he will mount a more complete immune response for the challenges he faces at weaning or at the feedyard."

Hedge funds' political donations shift from blue to red
Three of top 20 contributors ranked on website are from Fairfield County
WASHINGTON -- Hedge fund titans like Ray Dalio and Robert Citrone, who have helped make Fairfield County the "hedge fund capital of the world," are placing their chips on Republican candidates committed to diminishing the regulatory scheme created by the 2010 Dodd-Frank law -- even though critics say Dodd-Frank has done little to change the way the firms do business.
Hedge funds, which barely existed two decades ago, gave 67 percent of donations to Democrats in 2008 and 33 percent to Republicans, according to numbers collected on the opensecrets.org website of the Washington-based Center for Responsive Politics.
But so far this year, the proportions have flip-flopped.
With just five months left to go before the mid-term election, hedge funds have given $4.4 million to Republicans and $2.1 million to Democrats, also a 67-to-33-percent ratio, according to opensecrets.org, which culls figures from Federal Election Commission records.
Outsized personalities
Overall, hedge funds have dispensed $14.4 million, but about half of that has gone to outside groups not directly affiliated with specific parties or candidates.
For hedge funds, campaign spending is a statement not only about their rising prominence on the political landscape, but their anxiety that boatloads of income could significantly dry up if they are subjected to a harsher regulatory regimen.
Even in an age of superstar CEOs, hedge funds have set a new standard for wealth, power and leadership by outsized personalities.
Among the 25 highest-earning hedge fund managers in the latest ranking of Institutional Investor's Alpha magazine are Ray Dalio, of Westport-based Bridgewater Associates ($600 million), Paul Tudor Jones II, of Greenwich-based Tudor Investment ($600 million), and Robert Citrone, of Norwalk-based Discovery Capital Management ($475 million).
Steven Cohen, of Stamford-based SAC Capital Management, was No. 2 on the list, taking in $2.4 billion. As part of a guilty plea to federal securities fraud violation charges, Cohen gave up SAC and now manages his personal wealth under the name of Point72 Asset Management.
Top contributors
Of the top 20 hedge-fund political contributors listed on Opensecrets.org, three are headquartered in Fairfield County:
AQR Capital Management in Greenwich, founded in 1998 and led by Cliff Asness, a former Goldman Sachs managing director. AQR has more than $105 billion in assets under management and so far has donated $262,200, all to Republicans. Those familiar with the firm say Asness is the driving force for the donations and that few others there are as politically motivated.
Discovery Capital Management, founded in 1999 by Citrone, who is a former high school wrestler and now part owner of his hometown Pittsburgh Steelers. Discovery has given $171,600, all to Republicans.
Tudor Investment, which has contributed $138,500, 62 percent to Democrats and 37 percent to Republicans. Jones, who started Tudor Investment in 1980, is said to think of himself as a political independent. He backed President Barack Obama in 2008 and hosted a fundraiser for the then-U.S. senator from Illinois at his Greenwich mansion.
Four years later, Tudor Investment contributed $400,000 to the pro-Mitt-Romney superPAC, Restore Our Future, plus $29,500 directly to Romney, and $11,500 to Obama. Jones' backing of Romney contrasted sharply with his wife, Sonia Tudor Jones, who attended a $40,000-per-person fundraiser for Obama's re-election held at the New York apartment of actress Sarah Jessica Parker.
YouTube video
A spokesman for Tudor Investment and Discovery Capital declined comment. AQR and Bridgewater did not return calls seeking comment.
Dalio's firm, with 1,400 employees and $150 billion in assets under management, did not make the Top 20 list. But Opensecrets.org records show Bridgewater so far has contributed $57,649 -- 89 percent to Republicans and 10 percent to Democrats.
Dalio is not the archetypal quiet hedge fund manager who wants to be left alone. His views of life and investing are summarized in "Principles," which some media outlets have described as a manifesto. In a light Long-Island lilt, he also narrates a 30-minute animated video on YouTube called, "How the Economic Machine Works."
Hedge funds generally are open only to clients with more than $1 million in assets or annual incomes consistently above $200,000. Pension funds, endowments and foundations also are major participants. Hedge funds -- investment firms whose main goal is to generate high returns -- specialize in what some characterize as exotic investments including derivatives or "swaps," which are bets on underlying market price fluctuations that help investors "hedge" risk.
`Weapons of mass destruction'
But they are highly controversial. Famous investor Warren Buffet has referred to derivatives as "time bombs" and "financial weapons of mass destruction."
Credit-default swaps triggered the collapse of AIG insurance, which became one the pillars of the 2008 financial crisis. American taxpayers bailed out AIG to the tune of $182 billion.
In 2010, Obama signed the Dodd-Frank measure, which brought a measure of government oversight to derivatives. Republicans have led the charge -- mostly unsuccessful so far -- to repeal or blunt the law, a partial explanation for the hedge fund industry's shift in loyalty to the GOP.
The Managed Funds Association, the major hedge fund trade group in Washington, last year spent $3.7 million to lobby Congress on legislation including the Swap Jurisdiction Certainty Act.
The bill, which passed the GOP-controlled House of Representatives, but is stalled in the Democratic-controlled Senate, would ease U.S. regulatory control over cross-border derivatives transactions by relying more on rules promulgated by major foreign regulators.
Less information than banks
Rep. Maxine Waters, D-Calif., senior Democrat on the House Financial Services Committee, charged the measure would "preserve the kind of opacity in our markets that led to taxpayers bailing out AIG just five short years ago."
Critics say hedge funds' fears of regulation are overblown.
"Dodd-Frank went easy on hedge funds," said Marcus Stanley, policy director of Washington-based Americans for Financial Reform. "There's more regulation and reporting than before, but they're providing a lot less information than the banks."
By some accounts, hedge fund stars are said to be less concerned with specific issues than populist rhetorical salvos that -- in their view -- unfairly subject them to ridicule for financial success.
Their resentment toward Democrats crystallized early in the Obama administration when the president, in a 2009 "60 Minutes" interview, made a reference to "fat-cat bankers on Wall Street."
While the comment was referring mostly to the major retail banks, many of whom had received government bailouts, the message reverberated throughout the financial services industry as a whole and the shift toward the GOP coincided with a perfect storm of regulatory and political developments -- passage of Dodd-Frank plus Republican seizure of the House in the 2010 election.
`Tip the scales'
"Dodd-Frank did significantly tip the scales in favor of consumers and investors, and Republicans did take the House, causing a lot of hedge fund managers to rebalance their support," said Rep. Jim Himes, D-Conn., himself a veteran of the finance world as a VP at Goldman Sachs.
Himes, running for his fourth term this year, has taken in $26,500 from hedge funds -- No. 7 on the Opensecrets.org list of hedge fund donations to House candidates.
His Republican opponent, Dan Debicella -- a former Bridgewater manager -- has received $36,500 from hedge funds, putting him in the No. 3 position on the Opensecrets.org House candidate list.
"The financial services industry is one of the largest employers in our district and folks who work in that industry have contributed to our campaign," said Debicella campaign manager John Puskar. "And while our campaign is being funded by individuals who live and work in Connecticut, Jim Himes' campaign continues to be fueled by Washington lobbyists, the very same lobbyists who influence how he has voted on legislation."
Himes, in an interview, said there is little wonder that hedge funds are favoring Debicella.
"It doesn't surprise me that he's raising meaningfully from hedge funds since he worked at one the last two years, whereas I was working on reasonably balanced financial regulations," he said. "If you balance regulation right, you probably step on everybody's toes a little bit."
