A few months ago, one of my coauthors e-mailed this guy who had published a paper in JFE to ask him for their data. We meant to use this data for a different purpose. No response. I understand: let me explain. This is analysis that could, in principle, be redone from scratch (i.e., not from proprietary data) so the guy probably thought "these guys are lazy, so why bother: they should do their homework."
Okay, I understand plausible reasons but, nevertheless, I would categorize this kind of attitude as evil. Replications don't come for free: they are time-consuming in effort that could be spent doing something new, and can cause extra error since the follow-up research, whose focus is different, may not apply the same standards as the original. Plus, we all know that there are always many small choices that are not always reported and add up to alterations in the results.
Consider the following. In an NBER replication study of 67 papers published in major economics journals, only 1 paper out of 3 could be replicated replicated which was raised to slightly less than 1 out of 2 with 'assistance' from the authors.
We should all applaud the decision made by some journals including, but not exclusively, journals such as AER or JAR, to require code and data. Information is a public good and I wonder how much will be achieved from relying on data charity (my experience has not been good there). However, I am still worried that two fundamental problems are still not being formally addressed by authors and editors.
- Requiring a "credible source policy" for any empirical claim used in the journal
Even journal that have a data policy do not require their articles to use sources from journals or authors (possibly voluntarily – by public posting) to meet the same data policy. Think about it: (a) the data policy is present because there are doubts as to the credibility of any result that cannot be replicated and (b) a general policy of academic journal is not to include any claim that has not been rigorously established. Should (a) and (b) imply that no reference can be used that does not meet the data policy – or, if it used, that failure to meet the data policy should be noted and qualify the claim as 'tentative'?
Compare this to theory. I know of no article that would reference a claim whose theoretical proof is unavailable even if, say, the proof is too large to fit in the margin, as more than a conjecture. Hard sciences are not protected from fraud, but all serious journals implement strict policies about sharing data. The lack of a credible source policy in the social sciences may, in the end, encourage less transparent journals to free-ride and hurt the very same journals implementing the policy.
- Requiring peer-review over the supplementary documents
Can rules work without enforcement? Yet, I noticed that, even in journals with a data policy, the supplementary documents do not seem to have been refereed with the same standards as the original article, if refereed at all.
Most of the code that is shared is not commented in a way that allows the user to know what variables are and what they do, and for the most part, appears to be the incomplete notes of one co-author. On occasion, the code builds on a data set that comes from a different paper (and whose code is not available), completely defeating the purpose of the replication. There is very little guidance as to which files should be executed and in which order, as well as how this relates to each result in the paper. In other words, this code has simply not been designed to be re-used by a third party.
I'll point here to J. Shapiro and M. Gentzkow's excellent advice. They say it all but I'd like to pick up on one point that connects to my experience as a theory person. Writing a code should be like writing a proof: clear, elegant and as concise as possible. Like for a proof, one would reprise a correct argument to make it cleaner and more direct, and remove the unnecessary repetitions. The data portion and code should be refereed, and the referee should be able to run the code, understand what it does and suggest improvements.

Denied permission at Jantar Mantar, Hazare to fast at Rajghat
The announcement was made by his associates Arvind Kejriwal, Prashant Bhushan and Kiran Bedi, while contending the denial of permission to hold peaceful protest was against the basic Constitutional rights of citizens.
Mr. Hazare and others will launch the day-long hunger strike to protest the crackdown against Baba Ramdev's congregation against corruption at Ramlila Maidan on Saturday night.
The Hazare-led protest will be held in the vicinity of Rajghat from 10 am tomorrow and will be accompanied by fast, an all-religion prayer meeting and a debate on Lokpal Bill.
"The Delhi Police Commissioner (B. K. Gupta) has told us that there is no permission to sit (on fast) there (Jantar Mantar) and directed us not to sit there," Mr. Bhushan said about the venue which falls in New Delhi district where Section 144 has been imposed to prohibit gathering of more than four persons at one place.
"We are not fighting with them (police)," he told reporters adding that they had accordingly decided to shift the venue to Rajghat where Section 144 is not in force.
Mr. Kejriwal said, "we have no intention for confrontation. Our intention is only for peaceful protest."
Violation of rights
At the same time, he said the denial of permission was violation of Article 19(1) and 19(2) which gives freedom of speech to everyone.
Echoing Mr. Kejriwal's views, Mr. Bhushan said the Delhi Police should not do this otherwise people will have to resort to other means to express themselves
A senior police official today said they have refused permission for the fast at Jantar Mantar while citing prohibitory orders at the site after the police action against Baba Ramdev in Ramlila Maidan on Sunday.
Mr. Kejriwal, who earlier in the day claimed that no one can stop Mr. Hazare from protesting at Jantar Mantar, said their protest will be "very peaceful".
Earlier in the day, he had said, "from whom should we seek permission? They are not our masters. People of this country are the masters. Government is not our master, unfortunately they have started behaving like they are our masters."
Justice Santosh Hegde, who is the Karnataka Lokayukta, said he will not join any fast or demonstration till he was holding a public post but noted that the move to impose Section 144 and denying permission to Mr. Hazare "indicates a weakness" on the part of the government.
"The actions of the government against Baba Ramdev shows they are scared of him," he alleged, adding he was not asking anybody to defy the law.
BJP spokesperson Nirmala Seetharaman said the police decision not to allow protest at Jantar Mantar "clearly" showed that the government is neither prepared to engage with the civil society nor it is clear about the strategy with which it has to negotiate on issues which are confronting it.

Dhanuka Agritech strives for Water Conservation in India
New Delhi: Dhanuka Agritech Limited, one of India's leading Agrochemical Formulations companies participated in WORLD WATER DAY- conference on Integrated Water Resource Management for Enhancing Farmers' Income held at New Delhi. The event was jointly organized by ASSOCHAM and Ministry of Agriculture & Farmers Welfare with an aim to enhance farmer's income. The event was inaugurated by Mr. S.K. Pattanayak, IAS, Secretary, Department of Agriculture, Cooperation & Farmers Welfare, Government of India and saw participation from key dignitaries and industry leaders.
With an aim to propagate water conservation, the seminar proved to be a platform to discuss challenges of integrated water resource management, creating awareness among farmers about the value and scarcity of resources, sharing technologies and services towards efficient use of water in agriculture.
In India, the surface water potential is about 180 million ha m and the ground water resource is about 44 million ha m. With annual precipitation of about 400 million ha m, the average annual natural flow is about 188 million ha m. The annual requirement of fresh water is estimated at 105 million ha m by the year 2025 AD which is nearly equal to the ultimate water resources level of the country. Although India has the largest irrigation system in the world, its water use efficiency has not been more than 40 %. If it continues, water crisis would lead to reduced production and productivity, which would affect the quality of life of the people. This calls for productive use of water, more crop per drop. This would need efficiency at all the levels, storage, distribution and application.
Commenting on the occasion, Mr. R G Agarwal, Chairman, Dhanuka Agritech Limited said, "Over decades, Dhanuka Agritech has always been at the forefront to bring about progressive change in the lives of the Indian farming community through dedicated knowledge-driven and development-related activities. We are delighted to be a part of this great initiative undertaken by the Government of India and ASSOCHAM and look forward to continue our participation in all similar upcoming events."
He further added, "Water is a valuable but limited natural resource and therefore serious multi-facet approaches are required for its most judicious use. We are proud to be the first corporate house in the agrochemicals industry encouraging water conservation throughout the country."
For years Dhanuka Agritech Limited has been continuously educating and spreading awareness on water conservation. In 2014, Dhanuka Agritech funded the construction of two check dams in Sikar district. Looking at the response of the initiative, two additional dams were constructed in 2016 to ensure maximum awareness of water conservation in a rain starved state like Rajasthan. These campaigns have known to benefit over 8000 villagers in Rajasthan.

Suzie Brown Heartstrings
Published May 24, 2011Suzie Brown (a Harvard graduate hailing from Philadelphia) wasn't being subtle when she titled her debut LP. Moonlighting as a singer-songwriter while practicing cardiology, Brown chose to immerse herself completely in pulling heartstrings ― the artistic way. Recalling Patsy Cline, Brown shines when she invokes the Nashville sound of the late '50s/early '60s. Her occasional forays into a more upbeat, contemporary style of country are much less satisfying. Brown's deeper vocals ― more compelling when relaxed than when strained ― suit the mellow country-blues prominent on most of the material. Under the careful watch of producer Barrie Maguire (Amos Lee, Natalie Merchant), the record's musical arrangements are at just the right measure. The set-up is clean and crisp, leaving room for Brown's bluesy drawl to take centre stage. (Independent)

Arts and crafts retailer The Michaels Companies (NASDAQ:MIK) reported first-quarter results in the early-morning hours of Thursday. The company met Wall Street's targets and confirmed that its full-year guidance targets are on track, but the stock still crashed due to an unimpressive slate of second-quarter guidance goals.
Michaels' first quarter by the numbers
Year-Over-Year Change
$1.16 billion
$1.16 billion
GAAP net income
$26.9 million
$72.2 million
Adjusted earnings per diluted share
We're looking at adjusted earnings here in order to iron out some decidedly unique accounting charges against this quarter's results. Michaels saw costs of $0.20 per share related to the restructuring of its Aaron Brothers framing operations and another $0.04 charge per share related to the Trump administration's tax system changes.
These items did not affect the year-ago period and they're not coming back in a comparable way, so let's back them out of any analysis to be performed on Michaels' earnings. To get a sense of the straight-up GAAP profits, including the effects of all these one-time charges, take a look at GAAP net income sliding 63% lower instead.
"Please excuse the mess while we improve our stores"
The ongoing suite of business improvements may be painful in the short term, but they have already started to produce some significant results. For example, comparable-store sales increased 0.4% in the first quarter, powered by growth in the evolving e-commerce channel and "a nice positive comp" in the custom framing business.
Again, Michaels is bending over backward to make the framing operations work, shutting down Aaron Brothers as a stand-alone store format and replacing it with store-within-a-store displays inside existing Michaels outlets. That's a big part of the soft GAAP profits in this quarter, but the positive effects on comp sales are already materializing.
Moving forward, Michaels is now working to bring its e-commerce operations closer to the vest with in-house rather than outsourced fulfillment services. Converting another 235 stores to the new layout with Aaron Brothers framing sections and other improvements is also high on the to-do list. Management also wants to reap the benefits of more intense data analytics, essentially baking artificial intelligence into its marketing, supply chain, and store management operations.
What's next?
Michaels shares closed 14% lower on Thursday as investors largely ignored these solid results to focus on modest guidance targets for the second quarter. There, the company aims for flat comp sales and adjusted earnings of roughly $0.13 per share, below the Street's expectations of $0.19 per share.
But something tells me that this is a temporary trough, because Michaels' management also held the full-year revenue and profit targets steady. In other words, the company will miss its overarching annual goals unless things pick up in the second half. It seems foolhardy to set yourself up for failure on a grand scale, so I have to believe that Michaels is headed for a decent holiday season.
Make no mistake: Any trimming of the full-year goals should be met with arched eyebrows and a quick-draw finger over the "sell" button. My bullish conclusion here assumes that Michaels is being run by a competent and trustworthy leadership team. If that's true, Mr. Market just gave us a wide-open buy-in window on Michaels shares this week. Anything else would cast serious doubt over the management quality and investment thesis here.

I just wrote a letter that I really shouldn't have written.
It was a letter of recommendation (if we can use that term loosely) for a former student of mine (from a few years back). I was this student's advisor, I had them* in a number of classes, and I worked closely with them on a variety of things. When they got in touch with me, wanting a letter, I felt obligated because they were one of "my" students, and I said sure.
But you know, this student struggled a lot. They were quite intelligent, and actually quite a good writer, but they had a bad habit of not coming to class and not doing the work. I won't list details, but there were a number of occasions on which this student basically shot themselves in the foot.
I guess I didn't really think about HOW MUCH that was a problem till I sat down to write this letter -
- and realized that there was not very much concrete about the student that I could recommend.
This person has buckets of potential, that much is true, and that much is about what I said.
But it was a hard letter, and a short letter, and, I'm afraid, not an especially helpful letter.
And I am just not going to write a letter like this again. I shouldn't even have done it now, I realize, except that by the time I realized how much of a problem it was going to be, I couldn't face backing out and dealing with telling the student. And it's always easier to say yes than to start an honest conversation about what the letter is going to have to say.
But it's easier to say no than to write a letter like the one I just wrote. And I have to remember that for next time.
*Forgive the grammatical ugliness of the singular gender-neutral "they/them," but I don't feel like dealing with s/he etc. right now!

Awwww...! Yup..! Pretty flowers!
I've never understood why so many want to watch celebrities in fake porn myself. Now........ I do on occasion go to porn sites, I'm not ashamed of admitting that, but .......... not to watch that kind. There's not a "celebrity" out there that I want to see in that way at all. Besides ...... I mean you KNOW its faked so why even bother? Is their imagination so poor that if that's what you want to see they can't imagine it? smh. Now........... Ms. Anne Scott-Pendlebury has played a featured role in more than one of my thoughts, but I would never presume to paste her picture on some mere pornstar. She's quite hot enough in my imagination.
I do think its nice that they are banning it though.
I've never understood that either
Great post ant, nothing but somebody else's quote
BITE your tongue! It has a picture of the magnificently beautiful and alluring Anne Scott Pendlebury added! Which automatically elevates it to the upper tier of posts here. Hummmmpf.

The head of Austria's nationalist Freedom Party wants to place refugees in army barracks. Critics are appalled. But this isn't the first time the FPÖ has made headlines with populist campaigns.
The new year is less than a week old, but the far-right FPÖ (Freedom Party of Austria) has already managed to create a stir in the country. Vice Chancellor Heinz-Christian Strache has suggested placing refugees in old army barracks for the duration of their asylum application process and imposing a nightly curfew for them.
"We need order as long as there is an open asylum application process," Strache said in an interview with Austrian public broadcaster ORF.
The FPÖ has been the junior partner in a government coalition with the conservative Austrian People's Party (ÖVP) since December last year. In the government's almost 200-page long program, it says "there's no room for illegal migration, which often abuses the right to asylum" in Austria.
Fellow FPÖ politician and Austria's interior minister, Herbert Kickl, is also in favor of housing refugees in army barracks to make sure they're "all in one place." In an interview with Austrian radio station Ö1, Kickl said that since young men are expected to live in barracks during their military service, refugees could do the same.
'A sign of political failure'
Austrian politicians left of center are aghast at Strache's newest suggestions.
"It's a sign of political failure when you're not even trying to help people who come here achieve independence, but simply lock them up instead," Social Democrat Jürgen Czernohorszky, Vienna's city commissioner for integration, said in a statement.
Czernohorszky accused the FPÖ of not understanding the concept of integration and "replacing it with internment."
He called on Chancellor Sebastian Kurz to distance himself from Strache's ideas and get his coalition partner back in line. The way things are right now, Czernohorszky said, the government appeared to have an unacceptable view of humanity: "It seems that to the government, refugees are first and foremost criminals that need to be locked up."
Stricter migration policies
Austria's new leadership plans to implement several contentious measures to deal with refugees. In their government program, the FPÖ and ÖVP state that migrants will have to relinquish all of their cash when they apply for asylum. The money will be used to pay for basic services for asylum applicants and other migrants in need.
Asylum applicants will also have to hand their cell phones over to the authorities so that data on the devices can be collected. And in some cases, the new rules state, doctors who treat asylum applicants must forego medical confidentiality to provide the authorities with information.
'New apartments instead of new mosques'
The slogan "Austria first," inspired by US President Donald Trump's stated "America first" policy, features prominently on the FPÖ's website. But the party has been known for its populist, nationalist stance long before it became part of Austria's current government.
In the country's 2015 regional elections, the party campaigned with billboards that stated Austrians would feel foreign in their own land because of the growing number of immigrants and refugees. One poster called for "new apartments instead of new mosques."
In a 2012 local election in the state of Tyrol, an FPÖ poster encouraged Austrians to love their home country and reject "Moroccan thieves." The incident drew international attention when an official from Morocco's foreign ministry complained about the poster to Austria's ambassador in Rabat.
"I politely invite Morocco to take its criminals back," replied Gerald Hauser, then head of Tyrol's FPÖ chapter.
An international call to boycott Austria's new cabinet, especially its far-right ministers, has been published in Le Monde. Signatories include France's Bernard Kouchner and Canada's ex-premier Kim Campbell. (29.12.2017)
Austria's Chancellor Sebastian Kurz has announced his intention to deepen ties with Germany and the EU. Vienna's new government has encountered mixed responses in Germany for including the far-right Freedom Party. (18.12.2017)
Trolls have posted hate comments to a video in which Holocaust survivor Rudolf Gelbard warns of the dangers posed by Austria's Freedom Party. The far-right FPÖ is in coalition talks with Sebastian Kurz's conservatives. (03.11.2017)
Sebastian Kurz, who is set to become Austria's next chancellor, has already drawn criticism for considering a partnership with the far-right party. Kurz's Conservatives and the FPÖ share similar views on migration. (24.10.2017)
Austria's Freedom Party, FPÖ, has a good chance of being part of the country's next government — not for the first time. Unlike the German AfD, Austria's far-right party has long since cast aside its pariah status. (12.10.2017)

The Exhaustion of Brazil's Political and Economic System
The Impeachment of Pres. Dilma Rousseff, who was removed from office on Aug. 31, 2016, was a watershed moment for Brazil in the middle of a tumultuous year. Sixty-one of Brazil's 81 senators voted in favour of her removal, putting an end to the 13-year rule of the Workers' Party (PT), once praised as a successful experiment in democratic governance emphasizing social equity in the developing world. Rousseff's election in October 2010 as the first woman president of Brazil was celebrated as proof of social progress in Latin America's largest country. Her downfall, amid an unprecedented political, economic, and ethical crisis, marked the second time the country had resorted to presidential impeachment since the reinstatement of democracy in 1985 after 21 years of military rule. Yet in a demonstration of Brazil's resilience in the face of adversity, the impeachment—as traumatic and divisive as it was—did not prevent Rio de Janeiro from successfully hosting the Summer Olympics (see Special Report) in August.
The official justification for Rousseff's ouster, contained in two articles of impeachment approved on April 17 by 367 votes in the Chamber of Deputies (well above the required two-thirds majority of its 513 members), was the charge that she had violated the country's budget and fiscal-responsibility laws. These laws prohibited the government from spending above congressionally mandated limits or borrowing from federal banks to mask deficits. The political reason for Rousseff's downfall—after she had been reelected to a second four-year term—was her inability to address a debilitating fiscal and economic crisis that had gradually engulfed the country toward the end of her first term as president.
This crisis could become "the worst recession in the nation's history," in the words of Finance Minister Henrique Meirelles. Stabilizing Brazil's finances and reversing its economic downturn became the key priority of the government of Rousseff's former vice president and successor as president, Michel Temer. After having become interim president in May (following the Senate's acceptance of the impeachment case against Rousseff), Temer appointed Meirelles and other pro-market figures to his cabinet in an attempt to rebuild investor and consumer confidence as well as to revive the economy. International investors warmly welcomed the appointment of Meirelles, an international banking executive who served as central bank president for eight years under Rousseff's predecessor and mentor, Pres. Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva ("Lula"). At the end of 2016, however, the economy remained in recession, with GDP having contracted to 2008 levels. Moreover, the governments of all 26 Brazilian states and the Federal District of Brasília suffered from troubled finances. Growing signs of stress in the state company pension funds, rising unemployment, and weak predictions for growth in 2017 (revised down from 1.6% to 0.7% by the government in December) suggested that Brazil's short-term economic outlook remained dim.
Prospects for needed economic reforms also remained uncertain. Although the centrepiece of Temer and Meirelles's economic stabilization plan—a proposed constitutional amendment freezing growth in budget expenditures for two decades—had passed the Chamber of Deputies and the Senate by the end of 2016, many other fiscal and structural challenges remained (and promised to be politically difficult to address). Areas in need of reform included the failing social security system—a major source of current and projected fiscal deficits—and rigid labour laws that discouraged the hiring of workers. The positive results achieved at the giant state-owned oil company, Petrobras, under the new leadership of Pedro Parente, a respected former minister turned business executive who had been appointed president by Temer in late May, and a decision by Congress to repeal the company's obligatory participation in the exploration of all offshore oil and gas wells were rare glimmers of good news in an otherwise problematic outlook. A reorientation of Brazil's foreign policy driven by national interests rather than ideological preferences was announced by Temer's foreign minister, José Serra, a senator and two-time presidential candidate. The new emphasis did little, however, to alter the sense of isolation and loss of global relevance that had resulted during the era of PT rule.
Ongoing revelations of massive corruption resulting from Operation "Lava Jato" (Car Wash), the federal investigation of the Petrobras scandal launched in March 2014, only exacerbated the economic and political crisis. According to federal prosecutors, the crimes stemmed from an elaborate invoicing scheme involving construction companies and other suppliers of goods and services to Petrobras. Over the course of a decade, kickbacks worth billions of dollars had allegedly been laundered in Brazilian and foreign banks and paid as bribes in Brazil and abroad to politicians, political operators, and business executives with close ties to the PT and the other parties in its ruling coalition, including President Temer's Party of the Brazilian Democratic Movement. Allegations of criminal activities were also extended to members of the opposition, such as the Brazilian Social Democratic Party, which supported Rousseff's impeachment and then found representation in Temer's cabinet.
Federal Judge Sérgio Fernando Moro, who oversaw the investigation of the Petrobras case, described the broad reach of the alleged crimes as the result of "systemic corruption." As of October 21, the Brazilian Federal Attorney's Office had indicted 281 individuals in both criminal and civil cases, including the executives of 16 companies. Of the accused, 105 were found guilty and condemned to prison sentences exceeding a total of 1,133 years. Among those accused was Lula, who had enjoyed a popular approval rating higher than 80% at the end of his second term as Brazil's president in 2010. By midyear the Federal Attorney's office had sent more than 100 requests for information and cooperation to legal authorities in 20 countries.
Significant political uncertainty remained as the investigations and trials of high-ranking politicians and business leaders continued. By the end of 2016, legal proceedings against dozens of elected federal officials with "privileged forum"—meaning that they could be tried only by Brazil's Supreme Federal Court, the highest court in the country—had just started. Plea-bargain agreements by 51 former executives of Odebrecht, Brazil's largest construction company, had implicated key senators and ministers in the Temer cabinet, generating uncertainty over the permanence of their tenures in office. Temer's own standing was vulnerable to the outcome of an investigation by the Superior Electoral Tribunal regarding the alleged use of money stolen from Petrobras during the presidential campaign of 2014. With up to one-third of Brazil's federal congressmen potentially vulnerable to inquiries about illegal campaign-finance activities, politicians were maneuvering to limit prosecutors' and judges' authority and to give themselves some sort of amnesty without provoking the ire of a public tired of politicians' self-serving attitude toward public office. One such effort failed spectacularly on November 30. Under massive popular pressure mobilized through social media in a few hours, the Senate rejected an initiative by its president, Renan Calheiros—who faced a dozen federal indictments in the Lava Jato and other investigations—to speed up the vote of a bill approved the previous day by the Chamber of Deputies that would weaken the power of prosecutors to pursue corruption cases. The Supreme Federal Court, under the leadership of Minister Cármen Lúcia Antunes Rocha (the second woman to become chief justice, having begun her two-year term in September), reacted to the episode in a statement directed to the legislators. "Democracy is dependent upon strong and independent powers. The judiciary [power] is, by institutional mandate, the guardian and guarantor of democracy. One may attempt to silence a judge, but no one had or will be able shut up Justice." Carmén Lúcia, as she was known was expected to review all legal proceedings involving high-ranking and elected officials. The review process, however, was likely to last until the end of the decade and be a major factor in presidential and general elections scheduled for October 2018.
Supporters of Rousseff used the fact that she had not been accused of corruption in the Lava Jato investigation to present her removal from office as a parliamentary "coup d'état." They claimed that it was masterminded by corrupt conservative politicians interested in using impeachment to protect themselves from punishment and to annul the people's decision in the 2014 presidential election and thereby undermine the economic and social gains obtained by Brazil's poor under Rousseff. This perception gained sympathizers in the international media, especially in Europe, and was furthered by a controversial ruling made by then chief justice Ricardo Lewandowski, a PT sympathizer who presided over the impeachment trial. Acting in tandem with Calheiros, Lewandowski ruled that the Senate could vote separately on Rousseff's guilt and its consequences—the loss of political rights for her for eight years—which were theretofore inseparable under Article 52 of the constitution, governing impeachment. The maneuver was seen by critics as an attempt to create a precedent that could later be used to spare politicians from punishment even if found guilty.
The "coup" theory faded rapidly, however, after the humiliating defeat suffered by the PT in the October municipal elections held in 5,658 cities across Brazil. The party lost over half of the 630 mayors it had elected in 2012 and 45% of its 5,067 council seats throughout the country. The party of Lula and Rousseff prevailed in only one race for mayor of a state capital (out of 26), winning in Rio Branco, the capital of the remote westernmost state of Acre. Critically, it lost the election in São Paulo, Brazil's largest city, where João Doria—a businessman and television personality with limited political experience who capitalized on the rejection of politicians by a public fed up with corruption, impunity, and incompetence—won the election in the first round against multiple opponents—unprecedented in the city's political history. The PT also lost all city halls in the São Paulo industrial belt, from which the party had emerged in the late 1970s out of a coalition of unions, Catholic communities, traditional leftist parties, and a nascent environmental movement. Many experts viewed the downfall of the PT as a manifestation of the exhaustion of a political and economic system that had developed from the unsustainable welfare-state model that inspired the makers of Brazil's 1988 constitution, the country's seventh since its independence from Portugal in 1822.

The columnar leg appears in the final decade of the sixteenth century, and is in particular characteristic of the early seventeenth century. In some examples, as in the oak table in St Michael's Church, St Albans, the leg has a quasi-classical capital.

An elongated peg-top rated support, normally left plain and decorated with rings, was borrowed from Holland in the late seventeenth century.
Modest tables for use in parlors varied in the shape of the top, which was oval, round, or octagonal. Closely similar are the octagonal table, dated 1606, in the possession of the Carpenters' Firm, and Elias Ashmole's table at Oxford. In both the slender bulbous legs are fluted, and the arcading is notched though in the Carpenters' Company's table there is a moulded surrounding and plain cross stretcher. Folding or flap tables, in which the flap is supported by a swinging leg, have been light in make, and often set against the wall till expected. Such tables appear in the manuscript inventory taken in 1569 of goods at Tannis, in Hertfordshire, and in that of household stuff at Howard Property in 1598??.

The frieze is often carved, or additional seldom, as in the draw-leading table in the Victoria and Albert Museum, inlaid when occasionally the frieze is carved on the front only, the sides getting left plain. In late sixteenth-century stretchers there is a projection on the leading surface creating it T-shaped in section, a form which provides place to a rectangular section in the early seventeenth century.

A novel materials platform to unlock the next generation of consumer electronic devices.
Unparalleled polymer clarity, over 90% transparency, and ultra-low birefringence.
Enabling novel devices with unique form factors.
Designed with scalability in mind.
Compatible with most individual fabrication processes.
The family of Pylux™ materials all provide amorphous backbones, which leads to a variety of desirable optical properties useful for display applications. Namely, the high transparency, low color and low haze of Pylux™ films allow for clear and high-fidelity transmission of light directly through the polymer. Additionally, the exceptionally low birefringence of Pylux™ is similar to that of glass panels currently used in rigid LCD manufacturing. This allows for Pylux to be incorporated into the optical path of flexible display manufacturing without the need for compensating elements which add thickness and cost to the display module.
The Pylux platform offers a wide range of thermomechanical properties that can be tuned precisely to fit needs of the specific end-product. Glass transition temperature, modulus, max operational temperature are only examples of the characteristics that can be designed for to enable new products without sacrificing the optical properties.
Pylux-H has been specifically formulated for high surface hardness and increased glass transition temperature. These properties make it an ideal polymer for flexible cover lens and flexible touch panel substrate applications.
Pylux-H can be processed at up to 200°C featuring all of the exceptional optical performance characteristics of the Pylux™ polymer family. Pylux-H offers a great combination of mechanical and thermal properties in addition to compatibility with R2R processing.
Pylux-MF has been specifically formulated for microfabrication. Films can be processed indefinitely at 275°C, and up to 300°C for short periods of time (e.g. 30min).
Combined with our proprietary release layer, Easybond (Link a sección de Easybond), films can be easily detached from a rigid carrier via mechanical peeling, at the end of the fabrication.
Pylux-W has been specifically formulated for high optical transmittance, in addition to energy dissipation. As such, the elastomer can act as a combined optically clear adhesive (OCA) and an anti-shock protection layer, replacing two layers in the front-plane with one. Pylux-W is offered either as coatable resin (UV-curable just like the rest our Pylux™ family of resins) or in film form. Pylux-W offers an exceptional value by combining two functional layers into one film without compromising function and target values for optical and energy dissipation characteristics.

How to get more from the maintenance planning role
The planner role can vary from plant to plant, says David Berger, so use yours to meet strategic goals.
How many maintainers does it take to justify establishing the maintenance planning role? Is it 50? 30? 20? The answer is that it does not matter how many maintainers you have. If you have any physical assets whatsoever, then someone must take on the maintenance planning role and determine how the assets will be maintained, by whom, and whether the maintenance program is effective. The maintenance planning function could be a small component of the duties of one or more individuals, or accomplished by one or more full-time maintenance planners.
Many companies, regardless of size or industry, struggle with the maintenance planning role. Small to mid-sized companies typically see it as a full-time position relevant only to larger companies, and not as a formalized function that must be addressed regardless of company size or industry. (This is similar to problems experienced when there is no full-time stockkeeper to manage spare parts inventory.)
Larger companies that can justify a full-time maintenance planner also seem to struggle. For so many years they survived without a maintenance planner, therefore it is difficult to gauge when a full-time resource is cost-justified. Some companies experiment by putting someone in the position of full-time maintenance planner, but the informal processes of the past prevail and the maintenance planner is rendered ineffective.
Even very large companies that have had maintenance planners for years tend to get stuck in their ways, and are not strategic about how they use maintenance planners. For example, some large companies use maintenance planners to primarily plan one major component of the maintenance program, such as a focus on planning and scheduling major shutdowns and outages, or a focus on a given critical asset or group of assets. For these companies, the maintenance planning function is sub-optimal because no one is held accountable for planning and optimizing the overall maintenance program for the complete asset lifecycle.
Thus it appears many companies of all sizes can do a better job of understanding what the objectives of the maintenance planning role are, who is best to take on the role, where the function should be reporting, and the responsibilities of the function.
Overall, the maintenance planning role is responsible for optimizing the work program, encompassing all assets throughout their lifecycle, and subject to regulatory compliance. The maintenance planning role is also responsible for planning outages, shutdowns, and turnarounds, as these are a key component of the asset lifecycle and the overall work program. However, this should not be the focus of the role, as the work program also encompasses daily work that will impact shutdown planning, and vice versa.
Specific objectives of the maintenance planning role include the following:
1. Create, manage, and optimize the maintenance work program. This includes job plans for all maintenance work for all assets, starting with the most critical, whether triggered by asset condition, usage, or failure. The work program also documents the asset and location hierarchies, and requires that the asset master is complete and accurate at all times.
Job plans are prepared and planned for the life of the assets (e.g., a job plan to replace a pump every 5 years), but planned in detail for each month of the current and upcoming year. Many companies have a detailed plan and corresponding budget for three or more years out, especially if major shutdowns are required.
Each month, the annual plan is updated and released to the maintenance scheduling role at the shop-floor level, for scheduling labor, parts, tools, and facilities as required. Work order data is reviewed each month to analyze the work done, and report on performance and variances to plan. Results are used to optimize and adjust the work program, such as changing the frequency of parts replacement, or adopting an alternative maintenance policy such as condition-based maintenance.
2. Ensure that the organization is getting the most out of the CMMS, in terms of keeping an accurate and current inventory of all assets, components, parts, and skills. The CMMS is also the tool used for planning, scheduling, and recording what work was done. It is the primary reporting and analysis tool, used to identify opportunities for improvement and optimize the work program.
3. Act as a liaison for maintenance in dealing strategically with other departments such as Engineering (e.g., root cause analysis, new asset acquisition), Operations (e.g., planning downtime of assets), Materials Management (eg, optimizing spare parts inventory levels, managing lead times), and Finance (eg, repair/replace decision analysis). As well, the role assists with regulatory compliance and liaison with auditors.
4. Manage the overall capacity of the maintenance function, including maintenance labor skills, parts, tools, and facilities. Planning capacity of labor may require decisions on training needed to address skill gaps, when to use external contractors, and the optimal balance of maintenance, non-maintenance, and project work.
5. Maximize asset performance, availability, reliability, and quality of output, as well as minimize total cost of ownership.
Many companies, big and small, have failed to get value out of the maintenance planning role because of the background of the candidate selected to take on the role. The most frequent mistakes made by companies is giving responsibility for the role to someone who was made redundant in another area of maintenance, someone close to retirement looking for a comfortable transition job, an administrative person, or a student.
To avoid the most common errors, look for someone with the following attributes:
- Strong maintenance knowledge gained from a background as maintainer, engineer, or technician, in order to command the respect of the front-line maintenance supervisors and management
- Solid supervisory experience or equivalent, at a level equal to or higher than the front-line maintenance supervisors
- Excellent people skills, as a key component of the job is influencing Maintenance and other departments to change their behavior
- Good computer skills, including complete comfort with advanced CMMS tools such as planning/scheduling, budgeting, project management, work program, reporting, and analysis
The maintenance planning function typically reports into corporate Engineering and/or Maintenance, and in fewer cases, Operations. For best results, maintenance planning should be a centralized function, working towards shared goals alongside centralized Reliability Engineering, Operations, and Materials Management functions, at the same level and status in the organization. (In contrast, maintenance scheduling and work execution functions should be decentralized, i.e., at the plant level.)

There was a chance, a small, tiny, slim chance that I might be pregnant. And I hoped it was true.
There was part of me that had the best of intentions. I really did want a sibling for our daughter and for our family to grow. But that particular day, my desire was more selfish than that. And even though I knew my motives weren't all good, I couldn't deny that they were there.
I wanted to be pregnant so that I could prove I had a right to be so tired and empty.
I wanted to be pregnant so that I felt like it was "more okay" to be a stay-at-home mom. Two kids felt better than one in this proving game.
I wanted to be pregnant so that I had a card to pull that said, "Okay, this girl deserves to feel this tired because she's handling all this ON TOP OF being pregnant."
But then a few days passed and it was clear that I wasn't pregnant after all.
I was disappointed to lack my much-desired proof.
I was disappointed to be one of those normal people who get tired from emotional stress and a long season of Hard.
I was disappointed that I was weaker and needier than I wanted to be.
I was disappointed to be human.
In those disappointed moments, I spoke to my soul and felt the Holy Spirit there too.
What if I offered myself the grace of being me in this season?
That I didn't have to prove anything to anybody.
That it was okay to rest, just because I needed it.
That it was okay to be weak, if this is what being weak looked like.
That it was okay to be normal if it meant needing to rest.
That it was okay to be human.
I recently read Shauna Niequist's new book, Present Over Perfect. As she shared honestly about her own tired, I couldn't help but say, "me too."
I want to make a case for why I'm so tired. I want to run you through the list, partially because I want you to feel it, to feel as tired and glazed and undone as I feel. But also because I don't want you to think I'm weak. Not just any little thing could make me this tired. Not just a baby or something. Not just a book. I'm not one of those normal people who just gets tired sometimes. I'm so strong and full of energy. I'm so extra-capable and phenomenally tough…
There has to be another way. And I'm going to find it. I'm going to make the space to taste my life once again. I'm going to find a new way of living that allows for rest, as much rest as I need, not just enough to get through without tears, but enough to feel alive and whole, grounded and gracious. Things I haven't been in years.
I want to be the friend who can meet you halfway. Or can meet you the whole way if you're not doing well. I want to be the girl who can help you out if you need it. I want to be the person you can count on to be there when you need something.
But this year I found out that, despite my best intentions, I can't always do that without it costing too much. This year, I was the friend who needed someone to meet me the whole way, because I wasn't doing well. It was hard to ask for it. It was even harder to realize that I couldn't make up the difference if a friend was also not doing well and couldn't make up my difference.
In the midst of these unpleasant discoveries, I think the Lord is teaching me that I don't need what others would consider to be a "legitimate" reason to be tired. I don't have anything to prove. I don't have to be understood by others to be honest about where I find myself today.
This is so hard for me.
I want to be understood.
I want to be strong.
I want to be counted on.
I want to be helpful.
I want to be tough.
But the truth is that I'm human.
And part of being human is needing rest and breaks and naps.
I'm not a machine. I'm not meant to run endlessly.
I'm not meant to be able to meet every need or do everything, even if it seemed possible in a different season.
I think the Lord is asking me to be brave enough to be fully honest.
He's asking me to be honest about where I find myself today.
Sometimes I get so focused on where I thought I'd be or what I was like in a previous season that I end up putting more and more pressure on myself to prove I can do it. And when I can't, I want some "legit reason" like pregnancy or some crisis to prove that it is okay to need a break or to not do it all.
But the truth is that weakness is part of being human. And as much as my own heart hates it, I am finding that the Lord celebrates it.
He celebrates it because those are the people he can use.
He celebrates it because those people leave space for him.
He celebrates it because those are the people who show up with their hands open for him to do his finest work.
Friends, this season has certainly felt like one of my weakest and hardest to date. But I know those things do not dictate my worth or success.
The Lord says that his power is made perfect when I am weak.
He tells my heart not to be worried, because he is strong enough for both of us.
I don't have to be pregnant or in crisis or anything else to deserve a rest.
I don't have to be understood by anyone else to know I need to slow down.
And I think being brave means fighting to believe the truth that this is enough.
This book is for anyone who is tired and empty, anyone who has "fake-rested" while others were really resting, anyone who hates disappointing people, anyone who has ignored their body and/or spirit, anyone who feels like they have to earn or prove they deserve to rest. This book was for me (and I'm pretty sure I've been/am all of those "anyones") and echoes much of my own heart in this season. Shauna shares lessons that have been fought for, as she gives glimpses of her own soul on this journey of giving up perfection to be present.
I've loved all of her books, so it feels hard to pick a favorite. I tease my three brothers that they each have moments being my favorites, because the truth is I love them all equally, but so differently. Bittersweet spoke to me and brought me to Jesus in a season when I couldn't hear truth from very many places. Cold Tangarines makes me want to live well and enjoy all the good gifts Jesus has given me. Bread and Wine matches my own heart for what it looks like to find Jesus in the food we eat and the people we have around our tables. But as much as I loved all of these, I think I might choose Present Over Perfect as my favorite, at least for the moment. Shauna feels more herself, more alive, more rested, more honest than ever before. I'm so grateful for the soul tending she was brave enough to do so that this book, this truth was possible. This book was a good meal for my soul; nourishing, real and shared. A for me.

STOW, MA—Nick Wiseman, an assistant pro at Oyster Harbors Club, played 204 holes to bring his club again to the top fundraising position in the Francis Ouimet Scholarship Fund's 23rd Golf Marathon on August 12 at Stow Acres G.C. The event raised a total of $282,000. The 2015 Ouimet Marathon, which is believed to be the highest fundraising Marathon in the United States this year, brought the total raised since the event's inception in 1993 to $5.3 Million.
Oyster Harbors has won the fundraising competition for seven of the past eight years. It was Weisman's initial foray in the Marathon. He and Oyster Harbors Ouimet Chair Steve Demirjian raised a total of $25,193 to pace 37 clubs and organizations. The Country Club, led by assistant pro David Wilson, was second with $23,286 in fundraising. The 25year old Wilson is an Ouimet scholarship alumnus who played 176 holes.
Josh Christopher of Kittansett played 222 holes to lead this endurance challenge.
"This was a perfect day and the players were able to really play a lot of golf for us. The players and Walt Lankau of Stow Acres are really to be commended," Greg Gailius, Ouimet Fund President, said.
Ed McMellen of Oakley defended his title as low pro at seven under par in his 10th year playing the Ouimet Marathon. David Cellucci who played in memory of his late brother Michael, was low gross amateur at two over par. Drew Quirk of Longmeadow was low net at ten under par.
At age 47, Brian Golden, who represented Winchester CC and played in his 22nd Marathon, finished 126 holes.
The Francis Ouimet Scholarship Fund was founded in 1949 and since that time has awarded nearly $30 Million to students who have worked at least two years in service to golf in Massachusetts. Ouimet Scholars work as caddies or in pro shop or course superintendent operations. The Scholarship is a four-year renewable award and is need-based. In 2015-2016, The Fund plans to award at least $1.7 Million to approximately 300 students. Over 5,300 students have received Ouimet Scholarships since its founding, with many going on to outstanding positions of leadership in business and professional careers. The Ouimet Fund is one of the largest independent scholarships in New England and the 2nd largest "caddie fund" in the U.S. It is a 501(c)(3) organization and is considered the Golf Charity of Massachusetts.

The Estes Park Middle School Drama Club has been hard at work getting ready for "The Very UnMerry Adventures of Robin Hood" that they will be performing Friday, March 2 at the Estes Park High School Auditorium.
The Drama Club has worked for almost two months getting the play ready to go and learning their lines. The play is a version of the classic tale of Robin Hood and his Merry Men.
"The audience can expect a fast-paced comedy with a few surprises," said language arts teacher Sonja Greenway, who teaches the Drama Club. "It's a silly take on the traditional Robin Hood legend with all the original characters, plus a few extra."
There are 23 middle school students in the club, and each one has a part in the fun play. Jake Nichols stars as the pint-sized Robin Hood, with his trusty sidekick Little John, played by Brandon Marquardt. Robin's Merry "Men" consist of Noah Olson, Amelia Bryant and Kysa Marske.
Sheriff Nottingham is played by Spencer Mechem, with Eric Lopez taking on the part of King Richard, with fan favorite Friar Tuck played by Jackson Jacobs.
"Theater is a great outlet for all the energy kids this age possess," Greenway said. "They get to channel that energy into entertaining their audience."
Working on a play can be as rewarding as it is difficult, and the students had to practice after school and learn multiple lines and take direction well from Greenway.
"Directing a middle school play is a lot of work, but also a lot of fun too," Greenway said. "This group of actors has practiced hard for almost two months to put this show together. They've honed their focus, patience and listening skills as well as their acting skills. We appreciate everyone in our community who supports arts in our schools and hope to have good attendance at our show."
The school presentation will be at 2:15 p.m. on Friday, and the community performance will be at 7 p.m. that night. Both performances will be at the EPHS Auditorium and the evening performance will be $4 per ticket.
If you would like to support the Middle School Drama Club, head down to the High School on Friday night to find out if Robin Hood and his band of Merry Men can keep Sherwood Forest safe from the clutches of Sheriff Nottingham.
