Senator BUTTON (Minister for Industry, Technology and Commerce)(5.37) —in reply-I was not anticipating that the debate on Appropriation Bill (No. 1) 1985 would conclude so precipitately. I thought Senator Townley was going very well in the earlier stages of his speech. I want to say a few things by way of reply to a debate, half of which, of course, I have not heard. In this place one can normally predict what might be said. I often feel it would be a very good thing for politicians perhaps rather than making a speech to send a brochure of what they would have said if they had been here. I have not heard all honourable senators who have spoken in this debate but I have seen their brochures and I have a fair idea of what in fact was said. The burden of much of the discussion from honourable senators opposite has turned on their latest little flutter of joy arising from the relatively poor trade balance figures published this morning. It is a sad fact that we have come to an era in Australian history when when the dollar goes down the morale of the Opposition goes up.
Senator Archer —Nothing of the sort. That is not fair.
Senator BUTTON —It may not be fair, but it is perfectly obvious. Not only does Opposition morale go up but quite a few people spend quite a bit of time trying to talk it up. That has been quite apparent in the conduct of the debate in the Senate in the last week. I want to begin by setting these things in some perspective if I might because the Government is disappointed with the trade figures published this morning, although it is not entirely surprised.
Two things were published this morning: The trade figures were published and the Australian Financial Review carried an interesting interview with Sir Roderick Carnegie of CRA Ltd. I was reminded of that interview published in the Financial Review when Senator Townley was speaking because he referred to what is sometimes called the South American syndrome-the possibility of this country going down the South American route. That was an expression which was coined, I suspect, in the language of Australian politics by Sir Roderick Carnegie when he talked about the possibility of this country becoming the Uruguay of the South Pacific. That was some years ago. I think he said, at the height of the success of the Fraser Government, that that was a distinct possibility. Of course, what he is reported this morning as saying is that he sees that possibility as considerably diminished, that he sees a much greater and more realistic acceptance of the tasks facing this country and that he sees a greater will to deal with such tasks than he has seen in the last decade. He is reported to have expressed the profound belief that many of those problems which would normally lead to a degree of gloom can be overcome, given time. It is a view which the Government shares. It particularly shares the view that a realistic approach to many of the problems of this country which are endemic in the situation of the dollar at present is a very important starting point for an assessment about the road which has to be taken in the future.
When one looks at the political history of this country one sees that the Fraser Government set about the task-admittedly, it was a matter of pride-of dampening expectations in Australian public life, of getting politics off the front page. A variety of activities such as that adequately describe the gloomy souls of the Fraser Government. It was singularly unsuccessful in that. It perhaps reduced a few anticipations but it did not engender in the Australian people the sense of realism which is absolutely necessary in approaching some of the tasks with which we are confronted and the sense of realism to which Sir Roderick Carnegie referred in the interview in the Australian Financial Review this morning.
I think that anybody approaching the question of the overseas trade balance for a country such as Australia, who approached that question with a degree of realism and looked at the political performance of governments in this country over the last 30 years, and particularly of the Australian economy over the last 30 years, would realise, first of all, if I might put it in somewhat technical terms, that the J curve inevitably operates in a slightly different way and at a slightly lower rate in the Australian environment than it might in those European economies, and particularly North American economies, where the idea was invented. The reason is simple. For years this country was led to believe that the road to El Dorado lay in exports of agricultural products. In the 1960s the principal area of export of agricultural products, Europe, gradually began to be closed off to us. Throughout the 1970s, in spite of that fact, which had been absorbed by most people-I think most intelligent observers-the road to Europe was beaten by various Ministers for resources and Ministers for trade flying straight over the South Pacific countries. No trade Minister visited Singapore or Thailand in the seven or eight years of the Fraser Government. I would not like to count the number of ministerial visits that were made to Europe, all of which were in pursuit of something which had gone in terms of a market for major Australian agricultural exports.
Later we were told that the El Dorado for this country lay in mineral developments and exports. I remember the former Deputy Prime Minister, Mr Anthony, telling us that the development of uranium mining in Australia would lead to the creation of 500,000 jobs. I remember the late Sir Phillip Lynch telling the people of this country in 1980 and 1981 that $28 billion was committed in terms of developing mineral projects in Australia. These were the sorts of figures which were given to the Australian Parliament and the Australian community to lead people to the belief, as I said, that the El Dorado lay no longer perhaps in agricultural exports but in mineral exports. These were the things which were continually said to sustain lazy policies, incompetent policies and lack-lustre policies perceived by our predecessors in government.
At the same time as those things were being said about the agricultural sector and the mining sector, little attention was being given to the problems of the manufacturing and service sector in this country. When a solution was provided, it was provided in terms of the old model of higher tariffs to protect the weakest industries. That introduced great distortions into the tariff structure in Australia. We had that bizarre spectacle of a government actually negotiating a motor vehicle plan in 1981 with a single major company. We had the bizarre spectacle of the managing director of that company sitting outside the Cabinet room to be consulted about whether it was making the right decisions about the future of the motor vehicle industry in Australia. A range of decisions was made about the manufacturing industry which ignored what was happening in the rest of the world, which ignored the particular needs of the Australian manufacturers and which led to that crass imbalance in sectoral development of the Australian economy. The consequences of all those policies will not be got over by any government in one week, one month, one year or one term of government. That is why we will be looking for another term when the next election comes around. It requires persistence and determination to overcome these sorts of consequences of poor government which this country has suffered over many years.
I read speeches made by Liberal Party politicians at their national conferences. The rhetoric at the last Liberal Party National Conference was extraordinary-indeed, flamboyant. Speaker after speaker discussed industry policy and pointed out-to put it in Senator Townley's terms-that this country had been going down the Argentinean route for 30 years. I agree with that. I think that is pretty right. For twenty-six of those years we had Liberal-National Party governments in Australia. I think that the analysis which is given in the confines of the Liberal Party conference about those things is pretty right. I share the views which were expressed on that occasion, I think, in May of this year. I think that the question of the current trading situation of Australia, the trade balance, the floating of the dollar and the recent fall of the dollar, are all issues which have to be seen in that sort of perspective.
This Government will not be deterred from what we regard as the essential policy tasks by honourable senators here bouncing up and down with mock horror about the level of the dollar, interest rates levels and so on, in this month of November 1985. If we are deterred from the course which this Government has set itself upon by this mock horror and the flamboyant little speeches that have been made in the Senate, we will fall into the same trap as our predecessors; that is, ad hoc government, reactive government responding to the pressures of the day, rather than proactive government with some sense of direction. Of course, the latest thing which has been engendered into the debate is the view that as a result of the current level of the dollar, the Government should renegotiate the accord with the trade unions. That has the same degree of ad hockery about it. It is quite legitimate in political debate to attack the accord and to say that one would have done it differently. I shudder to think how one would have done it differently. We saw a bit of how the Opposition did it differently in 1981 and 1982. The consequences of that were disastrous for this country.
Senator Crichton-Browne —Would you do it differently if you knew what you know now?
Senator BUTTON —I do not think so. Perhaps there could be a few refinements-everything has rough edges-but, basically, no. The reason is that one cannot govern or engage in politics in fits and starts by responding to each pressure with a change of direction. What a government has to do is to achieve differences and results for this country over time. Over time it has to achieve, as we have achieved, lower unit labour costs. Over time it has to achieve a much better industrial relations record, as we have done and will continue to do. Over time it has to achieve much better co-operation between industry and unions in relation to changes and restructuring of industry. Over time it has to establish community awareness about the importance of these things. That is the task which must be pursued vigorously.
Senator Lewis referred to his favourite company, the McDonald's hamburger company. I do not think that he said anything about the quality of the hamburgers, which is a good thing-he would not want to hang his reputation on that-but he said something about its employment of young people.
Senator Archer —You will get a letter now. You will get a free sample.
Senator BUTTON —I am sure I will get a letter. As long as I do not get a hamburger! That is the thing that worries me. The interjection is important, because if the Fraser Government had received a letter from McDonald's it would have changed its policy the next day. That was the reactive style of politics in which it was engaged. The point I am seeking to make-I had better get to it quickly or I might lose it-is that Senator Lewis referred to his favourite company, the McDonald's hamburger corporation. I invite him to read the corporate motto, the corporate credo, of that company. I cannot remember the exact wording, but it says something to the effect that the world is full of highly educated senators who are fools. That is perhaps a bit of a corruption of what it says; it is to the effect that the world is full of highly educated fools. What is important above all else is continuity and persistence in what one is doing. That leads me back to what has almost emerged as the theme of my speech, I like to think, which is that one has to embark on consistent courses of policy and must stick to them.
As I said, I did not have the benefit of the wisdom of many honourable senators. Some honourable senators are aggrieved about the tax package and prophesy doom as a result of it. Some, like Senator Michael Baume, are concerned about the trade deficit. I have already referred to that point. Senator Bjelke-Petersen was concerned about the severe difficulties being suffered by the rural sector, and I agree with that observation. I do not see any simple, quick fixes to that problem. I do not think she suggested any, either. Senator Lewis was concerned about access to tertiary education institutions. One thing he did not give us was the figures which point to the vast improvement in participation rates in higher education in Australia since this Government came to power. I do not for a moment claim that our participation rates, our levels of access to tertiary education, are satisfactory. What I say is that they are much better than they were three years ago and they will continue to get better. Senator Lewis has fufilled a function in chiding us along the way about the importance of this process upon which we are already embarked.
Senator Dame Margaret Guilfoyle —You should come in here more often.
Senator BUTTON —I might say that Senator Dame Margaret Guilfoyle, as distinct from her colleagues, has what I would describe as an old, mature sophistication, an elegant sophistication. Senator Townley displayed a new level of sophistication when he simply made the point that one cannot pick the eyes out of these things and say that one will keep the good bits because those constituent groups, such as McDonald's, the car dealers and the restaurateurs, are currently agitating the Opposition on some of their grievances. He said that one cannot pick out the good bits and say that one will keep them and throw out the bad bits. He said that that would lead the Government and the economy into grave difficulties. That is a position which is very much advanced on what we have heard in the past few weeks. It is a very responsible view of the world. I think that this debate has been helpful, if for nothing else because it has revealed Senator Townley's view, and I think that is encouraging. We must do a lot better and try to grapple with some of the real issues-I concede there are many-rather than devoting too much time to many of these ad hoc interest group type arguments that have been put in an important debate on the Appropriation Bills. I thank the Senate for its consideration.

You just gotta see this gorgeous Holiday site. It is truly amazing and the Hottest Holiday Program of 2016!!


Take a trip to the past and experience colonial life first-hand. This program includes an interactive house tour, outside walk , costume talk, and colonial games. Please book your class trip early to avoid disappointment. Both pre-visit and post-visit activities are available.
Upon arrival, students will be directed to the Carriage House where they will receive an orientation to the site.
The Costume Talk is the first program activity, and will be presented to all the students at once while in the Carriage House. It will introduce the students to colonial life as they observe and participate in a demonstration of male and female clothing that would have been worn 200 years ago.
The students will then be divided into groups that will rotate between the remaining three activities. Each group participates in all components of the program.
While touring the house, students will focus on the lives of families in the 1800s. They will examine artifacts relating to family life and engage in discussions as to how technology has changed and why family life has both changed and remained the same over the last 200 years.
To experience pastimes of children in the early 1800's, students will get to try their hand at various toys and games that were popular in colonial times, such as stilt walking, rolling hoops and graces.
The Uniacke Estate grounds tell a social studies story, with interesting aspects of landscape as well as unique features that were introduced. As students explore the grounds and study colonial methods of travel, they will be able to discuss and see evidence of why Richard John Uniacke chose to build his home here, and how his family interacted with nature.

Canucks fans pushing for Gino Odjick's elevation to the Ring of Honour
Adding the Maniwaki Mauler to the list would make for a Great Eight of Vancouver Canucks.

The time has come for Gino Odjick's name to be hung permanently inside Rogers Arena, some Vancouver Canucks fans say.
Marcia McNaughton and Hans Petter Johnsen are leading a push online to make it happen.
Canucks fans pushing for Gino Odjick's elevation to the Ring of Honour Back to video
"With Gino being sick again fighting cardiac amyloidosis, we thought it was time to push for this to happen," McNaughton said Saturday from her home in Cloverdale. "There's not a bigger name in Vancouver other than the obvious ones who have already been honoured, we're just trying to put our support in, get him up there."
The Canucks have previously named Orland Kurtenbach, Kirk McLean, Thomas Gradin, Harold Snepts, Pat Quinn, Mattias Ohlund and Alex Burrows to the Ring of Honour.
The former Canucks pugilist won the affection of Vancouver hockey fans from just about his first shift in the NHL in 1990. By the end of that November home game against the Chicago Blackhawks, he'd already secured the beginnings of his legend: he fought Dave Manson and Stu Grimson in separate third-period fights.
He said he was delighted about what McNaughton and her friends were doing for him.
"I'm happy, she's doing a good job," he said. "Hopefully it brings some results! It's been really awesome, I had a really good connection with the fans from day one. It's really amazing that people still remember me 30 years later."
It's the second time Odjick has had to deal with the affliction known also known as "stiff heart disease." His first bout, in 2014, nearly killed him. The prognosis this time around appears more promising because his doctors were able to spot the since of its recurrence early.
"I'm feeling good, I've done two cycles now. The doctor says I'm doing good," he said.
Odjick's friend Peter Leech said Odjick has been considered for elevation to the Ring of Honour before by Canucks owner Francesco Aquilini and longtime executive and former player Stan Smyl.
"I think Marcia has done a tremendous thing," he said. "I've always insisted, every time I see Stan or Francesco, I'll take a poke myself, it should be up there in the rafters."
McNaughton, who lives in Cloverdale and is a long-time Canucks fan, first got to know the man nicknamed the Algonquin Assassin and the Maniwaki Mauler a few years ago via Twitter, when she accidentally tagged him in a tweet she meant to send to a friend.
She also got to know Leech and brought up the idea of Odjick beinga dded to the Ring of Honour a few years ago, but Leech said he was never sure how serious she was.
Earlier this year, McNaughton a Twitter account called GinoForRingOfHonour (@gino_ring), hoping to start a movement. Johnsen, who lives in Switzerland, jumped aboard recently and has been helping ramp up the account's activity, especially in posting pictures and old highlights of Odjick.
It does seem to be slowly growing, as they'e seen a recent uptick in online support.
"When we saw it, I thought wow good job," Leech said."And itmakes Gino feel good seeing seeing the fan support."
"I really appreciate the fans remembering me," Odjick re-iterated. "Marcia's really nice, she's a really nice person. She's a fan of the B.C. Lions, Seahawks, Canucks. She's been a treat to be around, we've brought her to a couple games, to the alumni suite, she always remembers all the old players."
McNaughton said that the news in September that her friend was once again dealing with a life threatening heart ailment pushed her to renew her efforts, even if the recent news is promising.
"I would hate for him to gone and not have been honoured," she said. "Everything he's done for the community, for the Canucks, for First Nations people, he deserves it. There's not a person who walks by him that doesn't stop to say hello. There's never been a name chanted in the arena like his.
"We wanted to bring him to the forefront."

Menstrual leave debated online but experts give it a thumbs up
Experts, however, have welcomed the move, saying it would dispel the stigma around periods, which still remains a taboo in many parts of the country.

NEW DELHI/SURAT: Zomato's announcement that it would provide an annual 10-day "menstrual leaves" to women and transgender people has triggered a debate over the feasibility of the idea, with some claiming that it was discriminatory against men.
On Sunday, a Surat-based digital marketing firm, iVIPANAN, also announced a 12-day leave for similar reasons for its staff members.
"Some people have been claiming that it's an outlandish idea, but the Bihar government has successfully implemented such leaves since 1992. Even though the state does not specifically mention menstruation as the reason for leaves, all full-time government women employees can avail a 2-day leave per month for biological reasons," said Shalini Jha, the founder of Project Alhar, which works on generating menstrual awareness in Bihar's Bhagalpur district.
Zomato, one of India's biggest restaurant aggregators, made the announcement on Saturday. The company released a blog by CEO Deepinder Goyal, which stated that menstruators "can now rightfully avail 10 extra leaves compared to men."
"There shouldn't be any shame or stigma attached to applying for a period leave. You should feel free to tell people on internal groups, or emails that you are on your period leave for the day," Goyal wrote in an email to Zomato's employees, which was then posted publicly.
On the heels Zomato, a Surat-based digital marketing firm has made a similar announcement. Bhautik Sheth, founder of iVIPANAN announced 12 days of period leave per year for its female staff with immediate effect. The firm founded in 2014 has nine employees of which eight are female.
"In the process of giving a more healthy and happy working environment, we are announcing a monthly menstrual cycle paid leave for all our female team members from today (Sunday) with immediate effect," Sheth wrote in an email to his employees.
Some arguments raised on social media, however, advocated against menstrual leaves, stating that women would be discriminated against by potential employers if they had the option to avail "extra leaves". Jha opposed that line of argument. "We would have implemented a blanket policy around mesntrual leaves if cis-gender heterosexual men experience periods. Menstrual leaves make workplaces more inclusive," she added.
According to gynecologist-turned activist Dr. Surbhi, menstrual leaves would normalise periods, which still remain a taboo for many Indians. "Menstruation is a natural process but there are women who go through problems like dysmenorrhea and cramps during their periods. Such leaves would go a long way to ensure that workplaces become more gender-sensitive," said Surbhi, who is also founder of Sachhi Saheli, an NGO based in Delhi which works on awareness campaigns around menstruation.
She added that workplaces are evolving because of greater women participation. "Earlier the percentage of women working was negligible, so we didn't have policies that catered to their needs. Things are changing now, and it (menstrual leaves) is a welcome step," she said.
Sheth of iVIPANAN said, "We understand the discomfort faced by female team members during periods. The work stress and office environment can increase their pain and discomfort levels. Now any female team member is eligible to take one paid leave per month during their menstrual cycle."
Sheth said that menstruation is still a taboo in Indian society. "Even today females working in offices become conscious of taking a bag, purse, and plastic bag in a hand while going to the washroom. We want to break this stigma and send a strong message to all small-size businesses in India to understand the biological difference in male and female," he added.

The hits keep coming. Los Angeles Magazine Top Doctors have recognized Dr. Farhad Sigari as one of their top doctors. Congratulations!
Los Angeles Magazine has decided to undertake the project of organizing a list of L.A.'s top doctors. Guess who's favorite doctor made the list?
Their process is to initially tap the wisdom of professionals who know medicine and the people working within it. Take the name of the nominated doctors and crosscheck them with the California Medical Board's license profile database and the Department of Consumer Affairs to look for any major complaints or infractions. Not every nominee made the list.
It's no wonder that Dr. Sigari was on this list. He has a passion to help his patients and to provide the best and newest technology to offer relief for his patient's suffering, such as Clarifix and Sinuva Sinus Implant. Dr. Sigari regularly teaches other physicians about the latest techniques and technologies, such as Spirox Latera Implant and Balloon Sinus Dilation.

What should I do?

A: Permission denied error is usually caused by incorrect owner, group, or file mode setting of the file to be loaded or one of the subdirectories leading to it. Another possible cause is SELinux, but only if it is enabled and in enforcing mode.

Permission denied: '/root/.local/share/virtualenvs/movie_douban-og6kh8C1/bin/activate_this.py'

In this case, almost certainly the Apache process has no access to /root directory (i.e. admin's home directory), because it is running under UID of apache or httpd user.
You should move your virtualenv files to a more suitable location.

Q: Nested form not appearing (simple_form) I have a model named Page and one named Medium. Medium is for uploaded images. The two models are connected with a rich HABTM association.
I want to be able to upload images through my page edit form. However i got a strange result. I am only getting the file field when the page already have an image associated with it. What can cause this?
This is my page model:
  class Page < ActiveRecord::Base

  acts_as_url :title, :only_when_blank => true, :sync_url => true
  acts_as_list

  STATUS = %w[draft published]

  def to_param
    "#{url}" # or whatever you set :url_attribute to
  end

  validates :title, :status, :url, :presence => true

end

This is my form:
<%= simple_form_for @page, :html => { :class => 'page-form' } do |f| %>

    <%= f.input :title, input_html: { class: 'span6'}, wrapper_html: { class: 'span6'}   %>

The Lehman Rescue Efforts: What Went Wrong; Was a Better Way Available?
By Yusuke Horiguchi
1. In a systemic financial crisis, strong forces of contagion--a virulent form of negative externality--put even the solidest financial firms with no faults of their own at serious risk, because of other firms' plight. This is a notorious example of market failure, providing a justification for public intervention aimed at preventing the financial system's collapse, typically involving taxpayer money. This is a standard economic analysis, widely accepted, at least at this level of generality, and with a straightforward prescription on the general direction of policy to be followed when coping with severe system-wide financial stresses. It needs emphasis, however, that the prescription is applicable only to systemic crisis situations.
2. The situation of September 2008 and the ensuing few months was none other than that of an epochal systemic crisis. It in fact was the epitome of "unusual and exigent circumstances", in which the Fed was authorized to exercise extraordinary lending power under Section 13-3 of the Federal Reserve Act (in particular pre Dodd-Frank). What was needed then was not just one but a series of decisive public interventions, with the Fed playing a critical role using its Section 13-3 power. Not bailing out a big financial firm in trouble in such a situation could cost taxpayers much more dearly than the direct cost of bailout, as witnessed in the wake of Lehman's collapse, an event which should have been prevented.
3. Why did the Lehman rescue efforts fail? It does not take a rocket scientist to figure out that then Treasury Secretary Paulson's dogged adherence to his policy of no public money for a Lehman rescue made an already very difficult task of preventing Lehman's collapse an almost impossible one, as documented amply in Ross Sorkin's Too Big To Fail, and former Treasury Secretary Geithner's Stress Test. What caused Paulson's absolute aversion to another use of public money was the political flak he had been getting, especially following the bailouts several days earlier of Fannie and Freddie. He could not stomach any more politicians' damning refrain "here goes Paulson again with his checkbook". As pointed out in those books, had Paulson chosen to take a higher road and indicate, at a strategic moment, his potential readiness to be less inflexible, at the end of the day, perhaps contingent on certain conditions, the process and the outcome of rescue efforts could well have been different.
4. Paulson found a convenient defense for his position in an analytical assessment circulating at the Treasury and the Fed with considerable top-levels support, that financial firms were ready to cope with a Lehman failure given their preparation over the six months since the Bear Stearns event. This analysis, however, was a cavalier one, to say the least, ignoring altogether a fallacy of composition typical in a panic whereby individual firms' rational behavior to run from risks collectively acts almost like a death sentence for the financial system already on its knees. A sloppy analysis should be accorded no place as a basis for a strong policy position like that of Paulson's, especially in a moment of truth.
5. Strangely, post Lehman's bankruptcy, Paulson's public statements on why Lehman was not bailed out cast aside his policy of no public money for Lehman. Paulson instead contended, like then Fed chairman Bernanke, that, given the lack of adequate collateral on the part of Lehman, they had no legal authority to lend to Lehman, even under Section 13-3, an amount sufficient for it to weather the storm and survive. Aside from a question why Paulson had to be so vehemently opposed to something that, according to him, they were not even legally authorized to do, a set of "circumstantial evidences" points to rather shaky grounds on which this contention stood.
6. To begin with, contrary to their public statements, the real legal authority issue in Lehman's case was not whether the Fed had legal authority to lend to Lehman under Section 13-3 but rather whether the Fed had legal authority to proffer a guarantee for Lehman's trading obligations during the interim between the time of Barclays (a UK bank, the only potential buyer of Lehman in the final stage) and Lehman signing an acquisition agreement and the time of the deal's closure. On Sunday September 14, with a consortium of major banks having already agreed, to meet Barclays' demand, to put up $33 billion to fund a special vehicle to purchase Lehman's toxic assets--a la Maiden Lane the NY Fed created for Bear Stearns rescue--the last hurdle blocking Barclays top executives' signing of an agreement in New York that day to acquire Lehman was the absence of a Barclays shareholders' yes vote on proffering trading obligations guarantee.
7. With the UK authorities refusing then to waive the country's requirement of a shareholders' vote on this, the only way viewed as potentially available for the merger deal to get signed that day was for the Fed, instead of Barclays, to proffer such a guarantee to Lehman, until the time of Barclays shareholders' yes vote. And that was what was deemed legally impossible for the Fed to do, as articulated by NY Fed general counsel Baxter in his statement to the Financial Crisis Inquiry Commission. So, Paulson and Bernanke were right in claiming that they did not have legal authority, but the legal authority in question was not one related to lending to Lehman in the alleged absence of adequate collateral but one related to proffering a temporary guarantee for Lehman's trading obligations. This distinction is critical. The Fed's lack of legal authority in this very specific and narrow matter cannot be considered as the last word on a broader issue of whether a legal way to use public money to rescue Lehman could not have been found.
8. A key issue in that broader context is whether Lehman had adequate collateral for a Fed loan under Section 13-3. The assertion of Paulson and Bernanke notwithstanding, a strong support for a positive answer to this question is found in the bank consortium's unambiguous decision to provide $33 billion to fund a special vehicle to buy Lehman's toxic assets. According to the Sorkin's book, the way the consortium valued those assets for deciding how much to provide was merciless, with 25-50% writedowns from Lehman's own downbeat estimates being common across those assets. A reliable basis for assessing the suitability of those assets as collateral for the Fed's potential loan operation for a Lehman rescue is found in NY Fed lending for Bear Stearns rescue. In that bailout, the collateral for the NY Fed's $29 billion loan to Maiden Lane was valued using, as is, Bear Stearns marks as of March 14. It would be a mystery if the Fed indeed had no legal authority to lend for a Lehman rescue based on the far more stringently valued collateral.
9. These considerations indicate that a way could have been found to get around the aforementioned specific legal obstacle and let Barclays sign the purchase deal. For example, given the consortium's commitment to provide $33 billion, a plausible scenario for Lehman rescue would have been for the consortium, instead of the Fed, to proffer the needed guarantee, using that money as a means to boost the guarantee's credibility, and for the Fed in tandem to fund a special vehicle to purchase Lehman's toxic assets, as it did for Bear Stearns. Would the consortium have demanded that the guarantee be secured by collateral? Not likely, in the light of the total lack of any "fusses" on the part of JP Morgan Chase in proffering the required guarantee to Bear Stearns, in sharp contrast to its adamant refusal to proceed with the acquisition deal in the absence of the Fed's commitment in effect to covering the great bulk of possible losses associated with Bear's toxic assets. Had the consortium asked for collateral, it very likely would have found adequate collateral among Lehman's non-toxic assets valued then at more than $500 billion.
10. As a final point on the legal issues, it should be emphasized that the Fed's lack of legal authority to proffer a guarantee as such should not have been taken as precluding a search for an instrument available within the Fed's legal power that performs a function equivalent to a straightforward guarantee for Lehman's trading obligations. To leave no room for doubt that Lehman's commitment in trade deals be honored, all that the Fed would have had to do was to make a non-recourse loan to Lehman in the amount of any trading transaction that Lehman did not have resources to consummate, taking the assets acquired from the counterparty to the deal as primary collateral. The Fed had the authority to make such a loan (and could have prevented a bankruptcy) but did not use it. Another possible channel through which to provide public financial support for a Lehman rescue was thus left unexplored.
11. The absence of official financial support to underpin the Lehman rescue plan being developed in New York made the UK authorities highly skeptical of the plan's workability, causing them to refuse to go along with the US authorities' prodding to give Barclays the green light for its acquisition of Lehman. The sketch provided by Paulson of the deal in the works, notable for no official skin in the game, clearly indicated to the UK authorities that Barclays would be taking on more risk than it could manage. What they looked for, in order to be supportive, was an assurance that the deal was sufficiently watertight to cope with any worst-case scenario. In their view, such assurance was possible, in the midst of the raging systemic crisis, only with an unequivocal financial backing of the US authorities for the deal. While the UK authorities' strong disinclination to go along, including its refusal to waive the requirement of a shareholders' vote on proffering of the guarantee, was taken by the US side as the final nail into the coffin of the deal, it should have been crystal clear from the very outset that there was absolutely no way for the UK government-or any other government for that matter-to endorse the deal as envisaged, in effect bankrolling a US investment bank when the US authorities would not.
12. By way of concluding, a mention has to be made of a concern about the moral hazard affecting big financial firms, a concern almost certain to have been underlying all those individual reasons for the failure of the Lehman rescue efforts. Despite its powerful influence in politics, substantively moral hazard affecting such firms is merely an untested extrapolation of a concept relevant for individuals' behavior to organizations'. To begin with, an official bailout of such firms is for the system's stability and never for any individual stakeholder. In cases where a firm on the brink gets bought into a healthier firm, it loses its own identity, and its stakeholders typically lose big time. Even in the bailouts of AIG and Citi in which their identities were preserved, the losses incurred by their shareholders as well as top executives and highly paid staff, typically with substantial holdings of shares of their respective companies, were enormous. Given that, an idea that individual stakeholders behave recklessly just because of the knowledge that their firm would be bailed out in time of crisis is absurd. So, then, is the notion of the moral hazard affecting large financial firms.
13. Moral hazard was not a driver of large financial firms' pre-crisis reckless behavior; greed and other basic frailties of many key individual stakeholders were. Despite its little substance, the concern about moral hazard has intensified in the aftermath of the repeated bailouts of unprecedented scales. This is visible in certain recent regulatory changes, including in particular Dodd-Frank's elimination of the Fed's power to lend to individual nonbanks and of the broader FDIC guarantee authority. Making the collapse of systemic firms during a crisis less preventable while lessening the authorities' ability to keep the panic from spreading can prove a devastating combination. In contrast to significant regulatory reform achieved on crisis prevention side, retrogression is the clear trend for the crisis management apparatus charged with the imperative of preserving systemic stability, driven by moral hazard concern and anti-bailout sentiment. Last time, the authorities failed to make full use of available instruments; next time of a category-5 hurricane, they will find themselves short of instruments. This has to change without delay.

Q: theoretical time complexity of python libraries that use LAPACK routines I'm using some of the functions that numpy.linalg provide such as numpy.linalg.svd, scipy.linalg.qr, scipy.linalg.lstsq and more. The API for these function say that they use some LAPACK routines, for example numpy.linalg.svd uses LAPACK routine _gesdd. my problem is that I need the theoretical time complexity of those function and I could find any information of this.
Where I can find this information?

A: I think your best bet is going through research article references from here. Although there is a chance someone who knows the actual numbers sees this post. A nice comparison of experimental times can be found here, but this is not quite what you were looking for.


What's Leaving Netflix In July?
Every month it seems like Netflix is born anew.
Our favorite streaming service makes some renovations and, suddenly, a whole new selection of television shows, documentaries, and movies are available at the click of a button. This is usually a good thing, especially when we get new Netflix original series.
Alas, though, we must say goodbye to some fan favorites. Yes, sadly, Netflix has to give some of its titles the boot in order to make room for the new, which means we have less than four days to watch as many of these classics as we possibly can.
Here are the titles leaving (for now) in July.
Right now, it doesn't seem like anything *too* devastating will be leaving this July, but it's still sad knowing we won't be able to binge Futurama anytime we want now. Oh well, I guess that's the price we have to pay in order to get Titanic up on Netflix ¯\_(ツ)_/¯.


Peter Turchin is a Russian-American scientist who specializes in population biology and devises theories, backed by cumulative scientific evidence, that, in their essence, predict the future by tracking "temporally varying processes and the search for causal mechanisms" throughout history. He calls his field of study "cliodynamics," after Clio, the Greek Muse of history, and it's been getting a lot of attention lately following an article about his research in the science journal Nature.
Peter's work suggests that peaks of violence in the US work on a 50-year cycle, with the next state of upheaval set to hit humanity in 2020. It's sort of like that 2012 Mayan-apocalypse nonsense, except Peter's theory is the result of the hard work of a modern, living, and well-respected scientist rather than a bunch of dead Central American dudes whom hippies like to talk about while taking heavy psychedelic drugs. We spoke to Peter to find out what's supposedly going to make the US descend into a horrifying, dystopian pit of violence in eight years' time.
VICE: Can you humor me and explain your cliodynamic theory of violence in layman's terms?
Peter Turchin: Sure. Historical studies show that society goes through long-term cycles of violence: There's a build-up for roughly a century, then a period of violence, or upheaval, for ten or 15 years. Then people get tired of it and the next generation goes back to being peaceful. It's then the grandchildren of that generation—who never experienced the severity of upheaval firsthand—who are likely to start causing problems again. My theory suggests that it will be 2020 when the US hits a new peak of violence.
What does the term "violence" include in regard to your theory?
There are three distinct kinds of violence that I've included in my research. Firstly there is "groups on groups," which, in the case of modern-day America, would be riots. Then there is "groups against individuals," which would be lynchings and that kind of thing. Lastly, there is "individuals against groups," which are what we call rampage killings. We've seen a very fast rise recently in that last one. It's where one person mows down a group of people by himself, which is essentially terrorism, but it's not referred to as that here because it's American-on-American violence.
Like the Dark Knight shooting, for example?
Yes, exactly. Things like Columbine, Virginia Tech, and the Timothy McVeigh bombing might be better examples, because rampage attacks are usually directed toward large institutions, like the educational system or government. Those kinds of incidents have grown over the last generation by a factor of 20 or so.
In your view, what causes these upheavals?
Historically, the trouble has always come from people with power, and the number of those people who want the most power. There are too many political entrepreneurs who are all trying to get power, and they get frustrated, which is how revolutions start: when members of the elite try to overturn the political order to better suit themselves.


Choosing the right type of web hosting for your small business website can be a bit of a minefield and the wrong move could result in either overspending or a slow website. Here is our quick guide to the various types of web hosting.
Your website needs to be available to the public no matter what time of day or night. Put very simply, web hosting is in fact a computer (known as a server), or network of computers, that remains switched on 24/7 and connected to the internet. Anyone requesting to view your web pages will be downloading your website files and folders from that computer in order to view them as a website in their browser.
There are a number of options when it comes to web hosting for small businesses, each with their own pros and cons.
These companies have their reputations staked on reliable hosting so you will find that they are usually very good in terms of availability. The downside to this approach is no real access to configure the hosting to your needs and you are usually tied to the supplier's 'drag and drop' website builder and pre-coded templates so very little is on offer in terms of design and code flexibility (the code generated by a lot of these builders would make our developers weep).
Although the quality of these websites will be nowhere near that offered by a professional web agency, they can be an option for a brand new startup business or sole trader with little budget to invest in their online presence in the early days. And, if you are happy to give it a go, you can create a basic website for your business pretty quickly.
Shared hosting is exactly as it sounds. You are allocated a small area of a much larger server which is shared with many (sometimes thousands) of other websites. If you don't want to be tied in to templated websites and feel confident enough to create your own or are employing the services of a web designer then shared hosting is the affordable option for you.
The pros of this approach are really flexibility in terms of website design and in some aspects of the web hosting set up. The cons are not really knowing who your 'neighbours' are (you could be sharing with anyone) and the fact that busy periods of the day or high demand may cause your website to slow down as all of the websites on the server are vying for resources.
There may also come a time when a website on your shared hosting is hacked or is used to send out spam email messages. Although this is rare with reputable shared web hosting providers it may have a negative effect on your website, either leaving it open to hacking or getting the web server blacklisted.
A VPS is a single, virtual machine, usually with the 'load' spread across a number of physical servers joined together. In essence it is your own server where you can get access to and update services such as account creation, security functions and software versions but there is no physical 'box' that you can identify as your own.
This is the entry level for those businesses who have grown enough or have enough traffic to justify their own dedicated web space where resources can be carefully monitored and adjusted to ensure websites are available and quick for visitors.
The pros of this approach are very reliable web hosting (if you choose a good provider of course). The cons are really around the price. You can easily end up paying a monthly cost which is the same as you would pay for a year's hosting on a shared server. You should also make sure that you are comfortable managing a server and may need to 'get your hands dirty' from time to time. Often, professional web design agencies will offer you hosting space on their own VPS where you can be assured that they will manage the service on your behalf and will only have their customers websites on the server.
Although this option may be cost prohibitive for a small business with a brochure website, if you are starting an e-commerce website then we would advise a VPS as a bare minimum. This is not only down to reliability and speed but also because you will need a dedicated 'static' IP address to install a SSL security certificate. A static IP may also be needed to maintain the communication channels with your payment gateway provider. For example, Sage Pay will check that your IP address is in its configuration before it will process a payment and you don't want to be updating this every month or so!
A dedicated server is a single, physical system which you essentially "rent" inside of a data center. Dedicated servers are probably the most expensive option out there right now. Dedicated servers will often be sold as 'bare bones' so you may need to purchase the software that is needed to make a server run. It will also take an advanced knowledge of server configuration and management to get your website up and running on a dedicated web hosting package.
Much like the VPS solution, the pros of dedicated servers are speed, reliability and flexibility and the cons are cost and the knowledge required to run it.
When considering either a VPS or dedicated server you can usually pay for management from the hosting company. This will reduce the need for server management knowledge but you may still want to get to grips with the basics so that you can do some of it yourself.
If you are a small business looking at the cheaper shared hosting options (which most will when they start out) then there are some things that you should be aware of when choosing a provider. Here are some tips on what to look out for.
Don't be fooled by the top-level figures - We are not saying these are not important but beware of what 'lies beneath the headlines'. For example it is easy for a web hosting company to promise you 5GB (Gigabytes) worth of storage space because they know you are never going to use it all. This is pretty much a meaningless figure but can look like a great deal to the uninitiated. Other factors are more important.
Up-time guarantee - You will want your website to be available at all times to visitors and hosting companies will usually offer an up-time guarantee. Make sure this is a minimum of 99.5% and check how they will compensate you if this target is not hit.
Windows or Linux - It is quite tempting for small businesses to opt for Windows-based hosting as this is a name you will recognise. Windows hosting is very good but some websites may not work all that well on the platform. Linux is actually the more popular choice for an Operating System on web hosting so don't discount it because you don't recognise it!
Do you need a database? - CMS (Content Management System) based websites will need a database to store the information about the website and make it work. If you need one then make sure it is included in the package you choose.
Control panel - This will be the area where you will manage your web hosting. Many web hosts use the cPanel software which is very clear and user-friendly. Others don't and some even develop their own admin areas so ask what admin area your web hosts use and if there is a demo you can try to make sure it isn't too overwhelming.
Other software - As well as the operating system and control panel you may require other software to make your website work. This might be PHP or MySQL for instance. Make sure you select the correct software with your web hosting package.
UK based servers - If you are a UK businesses operating or selling mainly in the UK then make sure your website will be hosted in the UK. A few of the very cheap web hosting companies only have servers abroad so do check carefully.
Check reviews - As with buying any other service there are plenty of reviews for web hosting companies online. Be sure to check them and read as many of the comments as you can. Web hosts with poor customer service or too many technical issues will soon come to light.
We hope that this article has helped you to understand a little more about web hosting options for your small business website and that you have many years of hassle-free web hosting and happy visitors with your chosen supplier.

Will 2018 Be Square, Inc.'s Best Year Yet?
Shares of the mobile payments facilitator have nearly tripled this year, but this doesn't mean that 2018 will be a letdown. Square hopes to move higher for the fourth year in a row.
Dec 12, 2017 at 10:06AM
One of this year's biggest winners is Square (NYSE:SQ). The transactions field leveler has nearly tripled in 2017, up 181% through Monday's close. Despite its spectacular run this year, Square stock has actually retreated by 23% since hitting all-time highs late last month.
Square's big run in 2017 means that it won't take anyone by surprise in 2018, and it would be a surprise if returns cool off in the year ahead. Cowen analyst George Mihalos initiated coverage of Square on Monday with a neutral rating and a $36 price target, arguing that the shares are fairly valued at this point. This doesn't mean that the party's over. In fact, this could just be the start of something even bigger.

The catalyst for Square's push to new highs last month was the move to allow some users of the Square Cash app to buy and sell bitcoins. With more cryptocurrency marketplaces sprouting and now even a futures market available, it's easy to see why that sizzle has gone, but let's not dismiss everything that Square has accomplished this year.
Revenue growth has decelerated every year since 2013, but things are starting to stabilize. Square boosted its full-year adjusted revenue guidance last month from between $925 million and $935 million to between $963 million and $966 million, growth of 40.3% at the midpoint. Analysts are targeting an increase of 32% in 2018.
Square hasn't necessarily been an earnings-driven story in the past, but that's starting to change at this phase of its life cycle. Square has beaten Wall Street's profit targets by at least 40% in each of the past four quarters. It also boosted its adjusted earnings guidance last time out. Square now sees a profit per share of $0.24 to $0.25 for all of 2017, and analysts see an 84% surge in the year ahead. Square is starting to put it all together on the bottom line, and even Timothy Willi at Wells Fargo -- who initiated coverage of the stock with a neutral rating last month -- sees compounded earnings growth of 50% through 2020.
Pick pockets
Lukewarm and even bearish analyst calls have come with an alarming frequency in recent weeks, and the lack of optimism centers largely on valuation concerns and last month's bitcoin-fueled rally. The stock has outpaced its fundamentals in 2017, but one can argue that it was the other way around in 2016, with only modest stock gains despite headier adjusted revenue growth of 52%. Square did kiss the baron of baristas goodbye in 2016, but it was more of a profit-slurping albatross than a platform validator at that point.
Square is looking good heading into 2018. It remains the mobile point-of-sale platform of choice for many small- and mid-size merchants. Competitors big and small will be gunning for Square, but it's hard to argue with the growing gross payment volume that it's processing with every passing quarter.
Square went public at $9 in late 2015, and it has now moved higher in each of its first three years on the market. The stock isn't going to nearly triple again in 2018, but momentum and improving fundamentals should help stretch its winning streak to four years of gains.

Reading Harry Potter
Gregory Loselle
Sympathy for the Dursleys
The environment into which Harry is delivered at the end of the first chapter is described at the start of the second:
The sun rose on the same tidy front gardens and lit up the brass number four on the Dursleys' front door; it crept into their living room, which was almost exactly the same as it had been on the night when Mr. Dursley had seen that fateful news report about the owls. Only the photographs on the mantel-piece really showed how much time had passed. Ten years ago, there had been lots of pictures of what looked like a large pink beach ball wearing different-colored bonnets — but Dudley Dursley was no longer a baby, and now the photographs showed a large blond boy riding his first bicycle, on a carousel at the fair, playing a computer game with his father, being hugged and kissed by his mother.
It's not that Little Whinging is devoid of all interest. Its denizens are vividly described, as needed, in almost nasty detail. For instance:
Every year, Harry was left behind with Mrs. Figg, a mad old lady who lived two streets away. Harry hated it there. The whole house smelled of cabbage and Mrs. Figg made him look at photographs of all the cats she'd ever owned.
But these garden-variety oddities, exaggerated for comic effect, are fully in context here for descriptive interest. The opening of the books is sprightly and generally charming, if predictable, and the description of the Dursleys, aside from some low-blow criticisms we're all more likely to make of others than ourselves--even when we most deserve them--is entertaining. The very first sentence ("Mr. and Mrs. Dursley were proud to say that they were perfectly normal, thank you very much") introduces us to this theme and, like a Buster Keaton routine, sets up a catalogue of almost slapstick assaults on the prickly dignity of one of "the last people you'd expect to be involved in anything strange or mysterious, because they just didn't hold with such nonsense."
Cue the marvelous. In short order--and during an otherwise commonplace day--
a cat is seen, or imagined, to be reading a map and, later, a street sign
a lot of strangely-dressed people are observed in public
owls are seen flying in broad daylight
an inexplicably happy older man in a violet cloak hugs Vernon Dursley
more owls are reported on the evening news, as is a meteor-shower
The scene could be compared to the opening chapter of The Hitch-hiker's Guide to the Galaxy, where the color yellow is observed groggily, and repeated to comic effect, by the protagonist, Arthur Dent.
But the Durleys, taken on their own merits, and invested with some sympathy, are understandable, if not likable, characters. If we make the tempting critical mistake of treating them as if they were actual human beings, we could note that receiving one's wounded infant nephew on the porch in the morning with the paper, accompanied by an account (which we do not see and the contents of which can only be inferred) of his parents' catastrophic murder at the hands of an evil sorcerer, is not the stuff to fuel complacent acceptance of a world in which infant nephews are delivered unexpectedly--even negligently--with a note describing a family tragedy about which one cannot believably speak. Perhaps one rational response to such an event is to consciously become "the last people you'd expect to be involved in anything strange or mysterious."
The exceptions would seem to prove the rule: the outlandish elements in the scene of Harry's arrival and the subsequent chapters that describe his life on Privet Drive are meant to interest us principally for their wonders. Against this staid environment, nothing even slightly unusual could help but stand out. So the Dursley's small-minded focus on the unexceptionable is understandable and, for narrative purposes, frankly necessary: what other kind of obsession should be given to the muggle parents of a wizard as yet unaware of his powers? We need them--Harry needs them--to be as undistinguished as tasteful wallpaper. But, in one significant way, also necessary to the action, they are not. The Dursleys, we find out almost immediately, are thoroughly and characteristically cruel to Harry.
While their crimes are many--making a child sleep in a closet under the stairs when a bedroom is free, above? intentionally underfeeding Harry?--the perpetually-stoked hostility and cartoony villainy of the Dursleys' actions often reads like a parody of Dickens. While Harry, when we first meet him as a character--and not as a plot device wrapped in a blanket--awakens under the stairs, the first willful act of abuse we witness is before breakfast on Dudley's birthday, when Harry is awakened roughly and is made to cook for his cousin. (This is not an occasion of great suffering, true, and Harry's sleeping arrangements, notwithstanding a host of spiders, are described as a bed in a cupboard large enough that he can nevertheless comfortably dress himself in it.) But the tone of the Dursley's treatment of Harry is denial: they simply, relentlessly, try not to acknowledge his presence; they refuse to include him in their family, they avoid speaking to him and, more or less, arrange to keep him out of sight.
So, Chez Dursley is a house of suffering, but when the sufferings are so ostentatiously applied, and have gone for years on in full view of the neighborhood (was no school counselor ever tipped off to Harry's condition? just asking the question renders the situation absurd), it would seem that we are meant to encounter them as a darkly comic device. We are in the realm of fable, here: characters are evil because they need to be--because we need them to be--and guilt is outside the fictional requirements of the tale, for the moment. And we needn't worry, the text seems to imply. Though he will experience a few more long summers with the Dursleys, Harry's privations, for the most part, are coming to an end.
The Dursleys are not real characters, however, just mannikins Rowling arranges as foils for Harry. Only through their consistent mean-spiritedness can Harry shine, for he is, at first, a decidedly passive character. Not once do we see Harry actually act on the manifest unfairness of his circumstances on Privet Drive. The sufferings of the child Harry are meant, it seems, to be both unbelievable and trivially petty--because the trivially petty is trivial, after all, and since the intent is to focus not on the injustice with which the Dursleys treat him, but on the compensatory wonders of the magical world into which he escapes from Privet Drive.

The Croaker Gig Shaker is a handmade high quality wood and aluminum shaker. The body of the shaker is thin aluminum tube. It is hand cut to 6.5" in length and polished. The end caps are machine cut from end-grain cedar wood. There is an inner divider separating the shaker into two chambers. Each chamber is filled with an equal amount of percussive beads.
The Gig Shaker produces a bright musical sound. It excels at cutting through at a gig. It can be played in several different ways creating many different sounds. It can be held like a traditional tube shaker, or held upright and played like a maraca, using only the upper chamber.
Aluminum is a silvery-white, soft, nonmagnetic metal. Aluminum is very lightweight and makes for an excellent shaker body. The soft metal combined with the percussive beads allows the Croaker Gig Shaker to create a bright sound.

The digital transformation has generated new practices in the premium customer relationship. Banking, financial, legal and wealth management services now exist online and in mobile applications where physical appointments are gradually being replaced by digital channels.
The convenience and fluidity of online management has become the norm, but today customers are not only expecting to have access to online services, they are also demanding a more personalized and high-quality customer experience.
For example, wealth managers and private bankers need to work closely with their clients to plan and optimize their portfolios. They have to meet their clients regularly to understand their needs and investment priorities, but the clients are very busy people who want to optimize their time and prefer remote appointments to physical appointments requiring travel.
Real-time video in premium customer relationship encourages more than a deeper customer engagement. A seamlessly integrated video call to an application or web portal provides also a valuable context for boosting sales and improving the customer experience.

What 25-Year-Old Car Would You Import?
We remain frustrated by the persistence of the 25-year rule for EPA/DOT exemptions on car imports. However, slowly but surely a host of ultra-desirable cars are hitting the magic age and now avoid that regulatory silliness. Time for a midwinter escapist break: Given the funds, what 25-plus-year-old car would you import?
There's any number of monster exotics that would be a thrilling choice, but we missed out on a bunch of great mainstream vehicles as well. Apparently Peugeot decided that its rorty ultra-nimble 205 GTi didn't fit in with the company's traditional customer base of aging doctors and Columbo fans, so we were utterly deprived of one of the great cheap fun rides of the Eighties.
