Q: Simpler test equivalent to shuffle tests and (doubly-nested) crossvalidation for the linear, Gaussian case? My field often uses black-box models to predict a target $y \in \mathbb R^T$ from some covariates $x \in \mathbb R^{T\times N}$.
I'm using $T$ to denote the number of samples (presumed independent), and $N$ to denote the number of covariates.
The general procedure is this:

*

*Pick a model to predict $y \approx f_\Theta(x)$, with parameters $\Theta$. We don't usually interpret the parameters $\Theta$, since these can be under-constrained/degenerate. Only predictive performance matters.

*Pick a measure of prediction error (squared error, cross-entropy, likelihood, etc.)

*Fit $\Theta$ under cross-validation

*Use a shuffle or permutation test to determine the importance of individual covariates, for each covariate index $n\in 1..N$

*

*Permute the values in the column $x_{\cdot,n}$

*Re-fit the model under cross-validation and measure the performance

*Repeat this 100–1000 times to get the distribution under the null hypothesis "the $n^\text{th}$ covariate contributes no unique predictive information"

In some cases, the model may also include regularization hyperparameters, which I will call ρ. These may also be interpreted as the parameters of a prior distribution on $\Theta$ in a hierarchical Bayesian sense. One reason for adding regularization is to make it easier to compare a wide range of models, possibly using different sized subsets of the $N$ covariates, using a single error measure. The regularization removes the over-fitting penalty associated with using more covariates. In this case, each cross-validated model-fitting procedure may contain a loop of inner cross-validation which selects various $\rho$, checks how well they perform under simulated crossvalidation, and then picks the best to use for a single model fit, which is then tested against some data withheld from this entire inner procedure. Equivalently, this doubly-nested procedure may also perform model selection.
This approach is horrendously expensive (some would say wasteful). So much so that I can no longer use it now that I'm working in the UK, where computing resources are much more limited. Still, it gives scientifically rigorous results when fitting complicated, regularized models, to data with complicated, nonlinear interdependences.
Another way to describe this might be "assessing regressor importance using a single iteration of backwards stepwise regression, combined with doubly-nested cross-validation to resolve the issues of over-fitting commonly associated with this data-mining technique". (let me know if this comparison is apt).
Question: Is there a simple, easy-to-compute, statistical test, which is mathematically equivalent to all of this if $f_{\Theta;\rho}(x)$ is just L2 regularized linear regression with the L2 error measure?
An equivalent question might be: Is there a fast way to check whether two different subsets of covariates $x$ differ significantly in their ability to predict $y$, in terms of $R^2$ in a (multi-)linear model (with L2 regularization strength adapted for the available experimental data)? (and which requires no assumptions that the true data arise from a process that is Gaussian or linear)
I'm interested in the general case where $x$ and $y$ are not Gaussian, not independent, and related to themselves and each-other in a potentially very nonlinear way. Nevertheless, say we were content with L2-regularized linear regression as a first-order measure of correlations. The only assumption available is that our $T$ samples are i.i.d. (This is also generally false, but I don't want to complicate matters). But, if for some reason we must assume linearity and Gaussianity, that may suffice.
This is certainly an answer, but as you can see, the particular baroque procedure I've described isn't exactly equivalent. At least, not obviously so. If it is equivalent, would anyone happy to know a nice reference I can point future students to (and myself!)?
More comments on faster mathematical equivalents for this approach in other special cases would also be welcome.

Progress at DJS
Feb 28, 2013 | 12:58 PM
The independent watchdog agency that oversees Maryland's Department of Juvenile Services recently released a report showing the state made important progress last year toward improving conditions for youths held in its three largest juvenile detention facilities. That's good news given the years of problems the system has encountered with overcrowding, incidents of violence, high staff turnover and aging facilities. Now the state needs to build on those gains by replicating the successful programs at its largest institutions in smaller facilities statewide.
DJS Secretary Sam Abed appears to have taken to heart criticisms that the state fills its detention centers with far too many nonviolent juvenile offenders who don't need to be there. In the past, that contributed to serious overcrowding at the Baltimore City Juvenile Justice Center, the Cheltenham Youth Facility in Prince George's County and the Charles H. Hickey Jr. School in Baltimore County, where youths whose cases had already been adjudicated often waited for weeks or months before a bed in a state residential treatment facility became available. Time spent in the state's detention centers does not count toward completion of a treatment program.
Mr. Abed has argued, rightly in our view, that many of those youths could be better served by alternatives to detention such as home detention supplemented by GPS monitoring, home visits by DJS staffers, and daily and evening reporting requirements. Another alternative is sending youths in detention facilities to smaller, community-based treatment programs. Over the last year, with the support of an Annie E. Casey Foundation grant, these approaches have been tried at all three of the state's largest youth detention facilities, and data compiled by the independent Juvenile Justice Monitoring Unit suggests they are producing results.
Overall levels of violence and injuries associated with youth assaults on other youths or staff have declined, as have group disturbances. So has the use of physical restraints to control unruly youths, such as the ones that led to the 2007 death of a boy at the now closed Bowling Brook Academy in Carroll County. Mr. Abed can also point to some successes in reducing contraband and incidents of suicidal behavior among youths in DJS facilities, though progress in this area remains uneven.
The agency still faces significant challenges, however, particularly in regard to providing residential and treatment programs for girls of the same quality as those for boys. The state's only treatment program for girls is housed at the Carter Center on the Eastern Shore, which lacks many of the regular athletic and vocational opportunities available to boys and whose location far from the metropolitan regions many girls come from makes it harder for families to support and participate in their treatment.
[Most read] 2 dead, including gunman, in Baltimore methadone clinic shooting; wounded sergeant in serious but stable condition »
The physical plant at the Carter Center is also an impediment, in that it was originally built as a detention facility, not as a treatment center. As a result, its design doesn't complement the institutional mission for which it is now being used. "Generally, female youth in the juvenile justice system are 'disproportionately high need and low risk,' which makes individualized, effective treatment of female youth difficult to achieve when they are subject to the nature of confinement in a hardware secure facility," the report notes. It goes on to warn that such conditions can exacerbate symptoms of post-traumatic stress disorder girls may have experienced, and they run counter to current best practices regarding trauma-informed care.
Mr. Abed took over a Juvenile Services Department in 2011 that was deeply troubled and mired in seemingly intractable problems that had been decades in the making. There are no quick or easy solutions that will magically turn the agency around. But the approach he has adopted at the largest detention facilities, which focuses state resources on the most serious youthful offenders while aggressively pursuing alternatives to detention for those who pose little or no danger to public safety, is a model for similar institutions statewide.

That has earned him high marks for redefining DJS' mission as an agency that primarily serves the state's most at-risk, high-need children. The department still needs to revisit the question of whether another large detention center in Prince George's County, scheduled for construction this year, is really needed, or whether a number of smaller facilities would better serve youths and their families. Such questions represent some of the most difficult challenges still facing the agency. But the solid progress so far suggests it is finally moving in the right direction.

This August, as we marked the 50th anniversary of the March on Washington, we were reminded that the measure of America's progress is not whether the doors of opportunity are cracked a little wider for a few, but whether our economic system provides a fair shot for the many. Minority-owned businesses play a crucial part in driving this progress—not only when their founders pursue their fullest measure of success, but also when they offer employees of all backgrounds a chance to enter the ranks of the American middle class. During Minority Enterprise Development Week, we recognize the strength of our diverse workforce and the many ways minority entrepreneurs contribute to our economy, our society, and our Nation's fundamental promise.
America's minority enterprises include everything from Main Street cornerstones that sustain communities to global firms that drive innovation in the industries of tomorrow. Together, these businesses employ almost 6 million Americans and contribute 1 trillion dollars to our economy every year. Minority entrepreneurs bring unique perspectives to every corner of our country, and their understanding of diverse cultures often gives them an advantage in the international marketplace.
As our economy continues to recover, our investments in minority owned and operated firms will help create jobs, strengthen families, and build ladders of opportunity in underserved communities. Over the past 5 years, my Administration has worked to empower minority entrepreneurs by connecting them with billions of dollars in contracts and access to capital. And to better serve America's business community, we launched www.Business.USA.gov, where any firm can seek out financing opportunities, navigate Federal bureaucracy, and cut through red tape.
This week, we celebrate America's minority enterprises, renew our commitment to helping them grow, and look with pride toward the promise of the future.
NOW, THEREFORE, I, BARACK OBAMA, President of the United States of America, by virtue of the authority vested in me by the Constitution and the laws of the United States, do hereby proclaim December 1 through December 7, 2013, as Minority Enterprise Development Week. I call upon all Americans to celebrate this week with appropriate programs, ceremonies, and activities to recognize the many contributions of our Nation's minority enterprises.

Important Notice: The base game Sid Meier's Civilization V is required in order to play.
Civilisation V: Gods of Kings is the first expansion to the grand strategy game developed by Firaxis Games. Choose a country and guide its development in a massive world map, from prehistoric times into the future. Gods of Kings bring religion, espionage, reworked combat and diplomacy features as well as many other new in-game features for you to discover!
Your goal in Civilisation V is to create the most expansive, advanced and capable society known throughout the world, however the means you define to reach your goals is solely your responsibility. You can fight against every surrounding nation. Either be a fierce occupant eliminating your threats with dominance and supreme firepower, or a beacon of peace and hope, primarily considering diplomacy at every decision made. Civilisation V has no right or wrong answer on how to reach your goal, whatever works — works.
With the Civilisation V: Gods of Kings expansion, you are now able to choose a religion your society follows. You can even rename it and customize its various beliefs to meet your standards! A new "faith" resource has been added for you to cultivate. You can spread and control your chosen religion using inquisitors, missionaries and a Great Prophet! The religion is very important through the first two stages of the game and then gradually fades off when you start grasping on the boarders of the modern era.
Espionage is one more additional feature to Civilisation V: Gods of Kings. Once the religious beliefs taper off — spies take over. Control your spies, send them to other countries to steal technology, rig elections and various other espionage missions available! Be careful as they might get caught and reveal intel about you instead. Spies can level up by successfully completing missions, so send them with caution and in-depth thought and be highly rewarded!

Recent Identity Work: A New Look for a Publisher
These logos show variations for spine, back of book cover and the fun look with the sideways "J". Matt and I also created a reversed logo to use over colored backgrounds.
This is for a publisher, Alice James Books. The had an ugly "Adobe-esque" letter A before and that was all they had for their independent book publishing group, affiliated with the University of Maine.
Matt Sharff and I integrated her portrait (she was, after all, the sister of William and Henry James who lived a largely confined and isolated life, so time for an overhaul in my opinion!) in an oval for the historical look, but we cleaned it up and gave it a modern "makeover" in Photoshop. The best part, is they like our quirky, rotated letter "J" and it is really satisfying to help a non-profit "find" a new look.
Arno is the font we used. Named after the Florentine river which runs through the heart of the Italian Renaissance, Arno draws on the warmth and readability of early humanist typefaces of the 15th and 16th centuries.
While inspired by the past, Arno is distinctly contemporary in both appearance and function. Designed by Adobe Principal Designer Robert Slimbach, Arno is a meticulously-crafted face in the tradition of early Venetian and Aldine book typefaces. We created EPS files with text outlines and next we hope to integrate this new logo on the website.

Freddie Mac today announced record earnings for third quarter 2002.
Operating earnings for third quarter 2002 were $987 million, compared to $813 million for the same period a year ago and $968 million for second quarter 2002. Diluted operating earnings per common share were $1.34 for third quarter 2002, compared to $1.08 for third quarter 2001 and $1.30 for second quarter 2002.
Freddie Mac"s operating earnings and diluted operating earnings per common share exclude certain accounting effects related to SFAS 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities," as amended. Operating earnings and diluted operating earnings per common share are pro forma performance measures used by Freddie Mac that provide for consistent treatment of similar economic transactions such as callable debt and purchased option- based derivatives. Freddie Mac"s operating earnings and diluted operating earnings per common share measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies.
As reported under generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"), net income for third quarter 2002 was $1.378 billion, an increase of 34 percent from third quarter 2001 net income of $1.032 billion. Diluted earnings per common share for third quarter 2002 were $1.90, an increase of 36 percent from third quarter 2001 diluted earnings per common share of $1.40. Second quarter 2002 net income and diluted earnings per common share were $1.110 billion and $1.50, respectively. Appendix I (included in the financial tables that accompany this press release) provides a reconciliation of GAAP (or "reported") earnings to operating earnings.
"Freddie Mac produced extremely strong third quarter results," said Leland C. Brendsel, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. "Operating earnings per share grew 24 percent. Already this year Freddie Mac has financed homes for nearly 3 million families."
"In this environment of historically low mortgage rates and record refinancing, Freddie Mac continued to demonstrate our risk management discipline," Brendsel added. "Freddie Mac"s interest-rate and credit risk remain low, and we are well-positioned to produce low double-digit operating earnings growth in 2003."
"Freddie Mac"s third quarter performance reflected solid portfolio growth and exceptional credit results," remarked David W. Glenn, Vice Chairman and President. "Consistent with our disciplined investment approach, we grew our retained portfolio by $12 billion during the quarter. In addition, for the sixth consecutive quarter, our credit losses represented less than 1 basis point of our total portfolio."

of its average mortgage portfolio, unchanged from second quarter 2002.
sustained strength of the housing market.
Freddie Mac"s total mortgage portfolio grew at a 5 percent annualized rate from $1.244 trillion at June 30, 2002 to $1.261 trillion at September 30, 2002. This growth was driven by new business purchase volume (which excludes purchases of PCs for the retained portfolio) of $137 billion in third quarter 2002, up from $126 billion for third quarter 2001 and second quarter 2002"s volume of $115 billion. Also affecting total mortgage portfolio growth were liquidations of $120 billion in third quarter 2002, up from $67 billion in third quarter 2001 and $74 billion in second quarter 2002.
Freddie Mac"s operating revenues reached $1.599 billion in third quarter 2002, a 14 percent increase over $1.399 billion for third quarter 2001, and down from $1.614 billion for second quarter 2002. Operating revenues include operating net interest income and operating other income, net (both defined below), but exclude SFAS 133-related changes in derivative market values, which are reported on Freddie Mac"s Income Statement as "Hedging gains (losses)." Reported revenues for third quarter 2002 were $2.201 billion, compared to $1.737 billion for third quarter 2001 and $1.833 billion for second quarter 2002.
The retained portfolio grew at a 9 percent annualized rate, increasing from $519 billion at June 30, 2002 to $531 billion at September 30, 2002. Mortgage investment opportunities were more attractive than during the second quarter, although growth was tempered by continued, strong demand from other investors as well as increased liquidations driven by record refinance activity.
Operating net interest income reflects adjustments to reported net interest income to exclude certain accounting effects associated with SFAS 133. These adjustments include the recognition of straight-line amortization expense on purchased option premiums and the reversal of certain SFAS 133 mark-to-market adjustments.
Freddie Mac"s operating net interest income totaled $1.296 billion in third quarter 2002, compared to $1.015 billion in third quarter 2001 and $1.292 billion for second quarter 2002. Reported net interest income for third quarter 2002 was $1.811 billion, compared to $1.438 billion in third quarter 2001 and $1.560 billion in second quarter 2002.
FTE operating net interest yield on earning assets was 86 basis points in third quarter 2002, compared to 80 basis points in third quarter 2001 and 88 basis points in second quarter 2002. The decline in operating net interest yield during the third quarter reflects, in part, higher PC variance expense, which resulted from the significant increase in mortgage prepayments in the low interest-rate environment.
Freddie Mac continued to be well-protected against interest-rate changes. Despite the significant interest- rate volatility and record low mortgage rates experienced during the third quarter, the corporation"s primary indicator of interest-rate risk -- portfolio market value sensitivity (PMVS) -- remained at low levels. PMVS averaged 2.84 percent in third quarter 2002, up slightly from 2.74 percent for both third quarter 2001 and second quarter 2002.
In addition, Freddie Mac"s duration gap averaged approximately negative 1 month in the third quarter 2002, compared to zero months in third quarter 2001 and unchanged from second quarter 2002.
The Total PC portfolio grew at a 2 percent annualized rate from $1.053 trillion at June 30, 2002 to $1.058 trillion at September 30, 2002. The Total PC, net portfolio (which excludes PCs held in the retained portfolio) grew at a 3 percent annualized rate from $725 billion at June 30, 2002 to $730 billion at September 30, 2002. Slower growth in Freddie Mac"s PC portfolios is typical in a refinance environment due to the acceleration in mortgage prepayments. As prepayments abate and refinanced loans are sold into the secondary market, the pace of portfolio growth typically increases.
Management and guarantee income totaled $490 million in third quarter 2002, compared to $416 million for third quarter 2001 and $478 million for second quarter 2002. During third quarter 2002, the average balance of Total PCs increased by $19 billion, or 2 percent, from second quarter 2002, while the average guarantee fee rate was 18.6 basis points, up from 18.5 basis points in both third quarter 2001 and second quarter 2002.
Freddie Mac demonstrated excellent credit performance during the third quarter, driven by the strength of its portfolio and favorable economic conditions. The corporation"s credit results continue to reflect the benefits of its automated underwriting and loss mitigation activities, high levels of credit enhancement, and consistently strong, nationwide house-price appreciation. Specific indicators of Freddie Mac"s strong credit performance are discussed in the paragraphs that follow.
The corporation"s single-family, at-risk delinquency rate -- an indicator of potential future credit losses -- was 0.37 percent for August 2002, compared to 0.38 percent in September 2001 and 0.36 percent in June 2002.
The net carrying value of delinquent multifamily loans was $4 million at the end of August 2002, compared to $7 million at September 30, 2001 and $5 million at June 30, 2002. As a percentage of the unpaid principal balance of multifamily mortgages serviced, the multifamily delinquency rate was 0.01 percent at the end of August 2002, compared to 0.03 percent at September 30, 2001 and 0.02 percent at June 30, 2002.
At September 30, 2002, total REO balances were $575 million, compared to $376 million at September 30, 2001 and $505 million at June 30, 2002. Single- family REO balances were $575 million at September 30, 2002, compared to $375 million at September 30, 2001 and $504 million at June 30, 2002. Multifamily REO balances were zero at September 30, 2002, down from $1 million at both September 30, 2001 and June 30, 2002.
Despite higher REO activity during third quarter 2002, Freddie Mac"s credit losses increased only $1 million. This reflects continued house-price gains as well as Freddie Mac"s on-going use of credit enhancements. Annualized third quarter 2002 credit losses (charge-offs plus REO operations income (expense)) were 0.8 basis points of the average total mortgage portfolio (excluding non-Freddie Mac mortgage securities), compared to 0.6 basis points in third quarter 2001 and unchanged from second quarter 2002.
In third quarter 2002, mortgage charge-offs were $26 million, compared to $15 million in third quarter 2001 and unchanged from second quarter 2002. Third quarter 2002 single-family charge-offs were $26 million, compared to $16 million for third quarter 2001 and unchanged from second quarter 2002.
Freddie Mac"s credit-related expenses consist of the "Provision for mortgage losses" and "REO operations income (expense)." The provision, which increases or decreases the corporation"s loan loss reserves, may be positive or negative, as deemed appropriate by management based on its periodic assessment of probable credit losses. For third quarter 2002, Freddie Mac had credit-related income of $48 million, compared to expenses of $18 million for third quarter 2001 and income of $4 million for second quarter 2002. The provision for mortgage losses was a negative $45 million for third quarter 2002, compared to a positive $19 million for third quarter 2001 and zero for second quarter 2002.
As disclosed in the corporation"s second quarter 2002 earnings press release dated July 23, 2002, Freddie Mac conducted a review of its loan loss reserves and concluded that its loan loss reserve balance has been approximately $250 million more than the level required by GAAP. As a result, Freddie Mac will reduce its loan loss reserve balance by approximately $250 million pre-tax. The adjustment will result in an increase in net income and/or retained earnings of approximately $160 million after-tax. Such adjustment is not yet reflected in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and financial tables that accompany this press release.
The corporation is discussing the accounting for this adjustment with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). Freddie Mac will reflect this adjustment in its quarterly financial statements after the accounting treatment has been finalized.
Freddie Mac"s Other income, net consists of a variety of components that tend to fluctuate from period to period. The primary components of Other income, net include losses on debt retirements, resecuritization fees, and gains or losses on investment activity.
Operating other income, net, was a loss of $187 million in third quarter 2002, compared to a loss of $32 million for third quarter 2001 and a loss of $156 million for second quarter 2002. The change in Operating other income, net from second quarter 2002 reflects several factors. Lower losses on debt retirements, higher resecuritization fees, and higher gains on no-hedge designation derivatives contributed to increased Operating other income, net. These increases were offset by write-downs on certain interest-only ("I/O") securities, which totaled approximately $315 million in third quarter 2002. With the significant decrease in interest rates during the third quarter, the prices of the corporation"s I/O securities declined. Under GAAP, the entire price decline of the I/O securities must be recorded in current period earnings. Freddie Mac purchases securities that have the effect of economically offsetting the price change of the I/Os. However, the price change related to these instruments is typically not included in current period earnings.
Operating other income, net, reflects adjustments to reported Other income, net, to exclude certain accounting effects associated with SFAS 133. These adjustments represent the difference in gain/loss recognition on sales of options or hedged assets and on repurchases of hedged debt between SFAS 133 and operating earnings. Reported other income, net, for third quarter 2002 was a loss of $118 million, compared to a loss of $32 million for the same period a year ago and a loss of $90 million for second quarter 2002.
During third quarter 2002, Freddie Mac repurchased $2.4 billion of long- term debt and incurred operating losses of $0.16 per diluted common share, compared to $1.4 billion of debt repurchased in third quarter 2001 and operating losses of $0.09 per diluted common share. During second quarter 2002, the corporation repurchased $7.3 billion of long-term debt and incurred operating losses of $0.23 per diluted common share.
Third quarter 2002 administrative expenses totaled $208 million, compared to $201 million for third quarter 2001 and $204 million for second quarter 2002. Annualized administrative expenses represented 6.7 basis points of the average total mortgage portfolio in third quarter 2002, compared to 7.5 basis points in third quarter 2001 and unchanged from second quarter 2002.
The corporation"s core capital was $22.496 billion at September 30, 2002, compared to $17.743 billion at September 30, 2001 and $21.446 billion at June 30, 2002.
Freddie Mac repurchased 2.4 million shares, or $150 million of common stock in third quarter 2002. The corporation did not repurchase common stock in third quarter 2001. In second quarter 2002, Freddie Mac repurchased 0.5 million shares, or $32 million of common stock.
Freddie Mac"s minimum capital surplus, the excess of Freddie Mac"s core capital over the minimum capital requirement, was estimated at approximately $2.0 billion at September 30, 2002, compared to $0.4 billion and $1.9 billion at September 30, 2001 and June 30, 2002, respectively.
During September 2002, OFHEO announced that Freddie Mac"s total capital exceeded the risk-based capital standard by $11.5 billion as of June 30, 2002. Freddie Mac"s surplus against the risk-based standard reflects its low level of interest-rate and credit risk and favorable market conditions.
Freddie Mac"s risk-based capital requirement became effective during September 2002. Pursuant to implementation of this requirement, Freddie Mac elected to reclassify mortgage securities with a fair value of approximately $75 billion from held-to-maturity to available-for-sale. This reclassification had no effect on Freddie Mac"s operating earnings or reported net income.
Given its strong year-to-date performance, Freddie Mac expects operating earnings per share growth of about 20 percent in 2002. The corporation now anticipates that 2002 retained portfolio growth will be at the higher end of the 8 to 12 percent range. Freddie Mac also expects its average operating net interest yield to decline in fourth quarter 2002 as it incurs additional hedging costs and higher PC variance expense. Finally, the corporation anticipates that credit losses in 2002 will be about 1 basis point of its average total portfolio.
In 2003, Freddie Mac expects to generate low double-digit operating earnings per share growth, while maintaining its low risk profile. Freddie Mac also expects to grow its retained portfolio by 8 to 12 percent next year. In addition, the corporation believes that its net interest margin will likely compress as it further reduces portfolio options risk and as spreads on mortgage assets purchased in the steep yield curve environment naturally decay. As a result, Freddie Mac expects its operating net interest yield for 2003 will be somewhat lower than 2002"s average. Finally, given the corporation"s strong credit position, Freddie Mac expects credit losses to increase modestly in 2003 but remain less than 2 basis points of its average total portfolio.
Freddie Mac will host a conference call discussing the corporation"s third quarter 2002 results today at 4 p.m. eastern time. The conference call will be Web cast live on Freddie Mac"s Web site at http:// www.freddiemac.com .
A telephone recording of this conference call will be available continuously beginning at 11:00 p.m. eastern time Wednesday, October 23, 2002 until midnight Wednesday, November 6, 2002. To access this recording, call 1- 800-475-6701 and use access code 654995.
Freddie Mac"s quarterly announcements of earnings results sometimes contain forward-looking statements pertaining to management"s current expectations as to Freddie Mac"s future business plans, results of operations and/or financial condition (see "Business Outlook" section). Management"s expectations for the corporation"s future necessarily involve a number of assumptions and estimates, and various factors could cause actual results to differ materially from these expectations. These assumptions and factors are discussed in the corporation"s Annual Report to Shareholders and its Information Statement and quarterly Information Statement Supplements.
Freddie Mac is a stockholder-owned corporation established by Congress in support of homeownership and rental housing. Freddie Mac purchases single- family and multifamily residential mortgages and mortgage- related securities, which it finances primarily by issuing mortgage passthrough securities and debt instruments in the capital markets. Over the years, Freddie Mac has opened doors for one in six homebuyers in America.
Freddie Mac"s earnings releases and other financial disclosures are available on the Shareholders" page of its Web site.
On January 1, 2001, Freddie Mac implemented SFAS 133, which requires the corporation to recognize on the balance sheet all derivatives as either assets or liabilities measured at their fair value. Beginning with its first quarter 2001 reporting, Freddie Mac began providing a supplemental performance measure known as "operating earnings." Management believes that results presented on an operating basis, while not a defined term within GAAP or comparable in many cases to supplemental performance measures used by other companies, are beneficial in understanding and analyzing Freddie Mac"s financial performance because they provide for consistent treatment of similar economic transactions such as callable debt and purchased option-based derivatives. This operating measure is also comparable with GAAP (or "reported") results prior to the adoption of SFAS 133. See Freddie Mac"s Information Statement dated March 29, 2002 or the 2001 Annual Report for additional information on operating earnings.

Alabama has dominated college football over the past two and half years, so maybe Nick Saban is getting bored beating up inferior teams.
Now he has decided to go after his own fans.
Every week, ESPN's College Gameday picks a new town to do their show from. What is less known is that they usually have a celebrity guest on each week to make picks with the analysts.
Last night at the NFL Draft, the New York Jets got started on the work towards rebuilding their roster.
Taken with the 9th and 13th picks overall were Alabama cornerback, Dee Milliner, and Missouri DT, Sheldon Richardson.
Earlier this week, I put up a gag tweet wondering if I should put out a column mocking the mock drafts. It was just a joke, but many responded positively towards it. Why could that be?
It's not to say there is not some merit to looking at the players and the needs of specific NFL teams, but there just simply is not enough time and expertise available to most writers to research all of college football and know all of the ways NFL teams work – outside of the handful experts spread amongst ESPN, Fox Sports, Yahoo, and a few blogs.
Mike Rice and the Rutgers Basketball Controversy: Where Is C. Vivian Stringer During All Of This?
South Carolina's DE and possible future Heisman candidate and #1 NFL draft pick, Jadeveon Clowney had a tackle and fumble creation like no other on Tuesday.
In the Outback Bowl vs. Michigan, Clowney ran through the offensive line right at the snap and hit running back Vincent Smith so hard and so fast that he lost his helmet, and the ball, causing a turnover.

Q: How can one wish someone a "good night" when they sleep during the day? Bob worked all night: he'll sleep from 9 am to 6 pm. What expression can one employ to wish him a "good night" right before he goes to sleep?

A: First thing that came to mind was good rest, or have a good rest.

A: "Good night" will be understood, if he is heading to bed directly.
"Sleep well" or "Sleep tight" would fit better, but is more familiar. Bob's spouse might use this, but his coworkers probably wouldn't.

A: When I was on a team that sometimes was called upon to work well into the night, coworkers often bid one another farewell with "Good work" (meaning, work is done) or "Rest well" (meaning, I'm not telling you must go to sleep now).
When we were feeling ill-used, folks might say a snarky: "Enjoy your time off" (as if being allowed to sleep after a long work shift were a vacation).
"I'll see you when I see you" was also heard, meaning the person should rest and relax, and not hurry back to work.
Direct references to sleep, bed, etc., are often avoided in business settings, as they are intimate subjects.

A: Sweet dreams
Sleep tight  (The origin of this strange phrase is that in medieval times beds were wooden frames with ropes across them.  To stop the ropes stretching too quickly, you would de-tension them when you woke up and re-tension them at bed time.)
Not Good rest or good sleep.  Not in Britain anyway.  That's very clunky.

A: As someone who does have an irregular sleep schedule due to sleep disorder, I simply use myself (and also have been wished) "good night" and "good morning" regardless of the time of day. After all, I'm not taking just a nap, I'm having my "full night's sleep", even if it's noon outside the window. And my morning is when I wake up from that sleep, I go do my morning routines and everything else associated with morning.
I also use time dependent words like "breakfast", "lunch" and "dinner" relative to when I woke up. So my first meal is breakfast, next lunch and then dinner. So I may be eating lunch at midnight for instance.
However, whenever I'm interacting with the general public, I use the normal greeting for that time of day.

A: You could perfectly say good rest or good sleep.


Australian Paralympic gold medallist Jamie DUNROSS has had a big setback in his quest to win the Alcoa IFDS World Disabled Sailing Championships, and his bid to qualify for Beijing 2008, in search of another gold medal.
Crew member Jeff MILLIGAN, who sailed with DUNROSS at the Athens Paralympics in 2004, has been declassified as disabled, the day before the start of the Championship.
MILLIGAN is an amputee, having lost his right foot. All disabled sailors' classifications are only valid for the Paralympic quadrennial, and following Athens, MILLIGAN's new classification has made him ineligible to compete.
After six years of sailing with DUNROSS' crew, and competing in previous IFDS World Championships, and the Paralympics MILLIGAN was disappointed by the decision.
Though substitute crew Graeme MARTIN was on Noel ROBINS' gold medal winning crew with DUNROSS at the 2000 Paralympics in Sydney, he has not sailed competitively since.
When MILLIGAN was refused classification as a disabled sailor, the team protested the decision, but the International Jury upheld the decision by the Classification Committee, after two days of hearings and deliberations.
The skipper DUNROSS was both disappointed for MILLIGAN, and annoyed that all the work they have put in as a team is now compromised.
IFDS President Serge JORGENSEN (USA) released a statement saying, 'It is with regret that the IFDS notes the recent classification questions at the 2006 Disabled World Championship. The classification system used for Disabled Sailing has been developed over the past 14 years by a multi-national team of physicians from Australia, Canada, Great Britain, Germany, Israel, the Netherlands and the USA, and with feedback and input from coaches, sailors and RNAs. The system is designed to provide the greatest possible degree of equity and inclusion, while allowing teams to compete against other sailors with physical functional limitations within defined parameters.
To read the complete statement CLICK HERE.
The Alcoa IFDS World Disabled Sailing Championships are the first qualifying event for the Beijing 2008 Paralympics, and over 70 sailors from 14 nations are contesting the event.
After an invitation race today, the Championship proper starts on Perth's Swan River tomorrow.

Key Individuals
It is the opinion of the company's founder, Mr. Naples, who has spent almost three decades developing startup and mid-stage "bleeding edge" technology companies in a widely diverse set of industries, that TRN has an extremely strong core group of five professionals as captive consultants—highly skilled, mature and experienced—to continue to provide a solid foundation for growth. Mr. Naples is the only employee.
Brad Naples
Mr. Naples has an extensive successful career leading startup to mid-stage technology companies as well as turnaround situations starting in 1980. "Blue chip" venture investors that retained him include Tudor Ventures, Rockefeller VC and Rothschild VC (London), among others.
New England Digital Corp. (NED) (1979–1993)
NED started out of the Thayer School of Engineering, at Dartmouth College, Hanover, NH. Mr. Naples was hired as the company's Business Manager in 1979. New England Digital was the pioneer of digital audio recording, editing and sound design. Clients included the world's "who's who" in music, film/TV producers/directors, sound/audio design editors and engineers from Sting, Michael Jackson and Leonard Bernstein to George Lucas, Lucasfilm Ltd. and many notable others. Appointed CEO in 1982, Mr. Naples relentlessly drove the capital raising efforts, technology, marketing and sales efforts to propel the company well beyond the revenues of any existing pro audio company at the time. NED grew from $300,000 to $23,000,000.00 and from nine employees to approximately 200 worldwide.
Virtual Music/Musicplayground (1995–2003)
"Blue chip" VC investors funded this startup, whose CEO at the time of its initial round exhausted all of the $8M of capital in 12 months! It was then that the lead investor, Tudor Venture Capital (Boston), sought and retained Mr. Naples to attempt to rescue the company. Mr. Naples conceived of, sought and gained a unique and significant patent on the technology in Tokyo, Japan which was awarded and immediately led to the company being sold to a multibillion dollar Japanese video game company for $18M, providing a financial success well beyond the investor's anticipation. The technology was the key technology used in the blockbuster video game niche "GUITAR HERO." Mr. Naples continued to work as CEO closely with many Japanese companies in the video game development niche and gained significant experience in the management of such projects.
Consulting:
From January 2004-06, Mr. Naples was retained as a business consultant to government related technology-oriented businesses in Washington, DC among other consulting positions.
The Response Network Inc. (TRN) 2006–Current
Mr. Naples first conceived of developing The Response Network Inc. to assist/help and/or train professional public safety after personally witnessing the terror attacks in NYC on 9-11, 2001 while in New York City. After four years of investigation and consideration around mid-2005 the genesis of the company began to take shape.

William Johnson and Martin Loos, American Pixel
Course Development Team
American Pixel is an experienced media company that is capitalizing on the talents of today's new-school technology generation integrating leading-edge video/film design with e-learning experience. The two key principals are William Johnson and Martin Loos who conduct at least 85% of all day-to-day business requirements.
American Pixel's core competencies are its thorough understanding of the video production industry and its changing technologies. Two of the core changes include technologies that are transforming traditional video from merely a visual medium into an interactive experience, and the technologies that are driving video away from mainstream outlets and toward the web and mobile devices. This includes a strong understanding of how video is interwoven with web/mobile applications, comprehensive interactive programming, the blending of video technology and 3D gaming tools, and the psychology of how this new interactive visual media impacts the end consumer. Today's finished video presentations are more comprehensive, hold more of the viewer's attention, and can create lasting, impressionable experiences. Technology is closing the gap on the limits between the creative vision of the director and the finished experience of the viewer.
Since 2010, and while working with the The Response Network (TRN), American Pixel has been creating custom e learning content for numerous law enforcement agencies across the US. With an understanding that students of the future are going to have a different learning experience than those of the past, American Pixel, along with TRN, has endeavored to create learning content that is keeping up with the learning styles of the next generation of law enforcement officers. This has included visually engaging media and interactive tutorial experiences.

This umami broth with a peppery kick has such a depth of flavor that you'd never guess it takes less than half an hour to come together. If you'd like to keep things strictly Paleo, make sure to choose coconut aminos instead of soy sauce.
Bring water, soy sauce, mirin, pepper, shallots, half of garlic, sliced ginger and ground ginger to a boil in a heavy saucepan, then simmer 5 minutes. Let broth stand off heat 10 minutes.
Cook remaining garlic and rosemary in oil in a heavy skillet over medium heat, stirring, 1 minute. Add mushrooms and cook, stirring occasionally, until tender, about 3 minutes.
Strain broth through a fine-mesh sieve into mushroom mixture, discarding solids, and simmer 1 minute. Stir in lemon juice.
Pat fish filets dry and season with with salt and pepper. Heat oil in a skillet over medium-high heat until hot, then sauté fish, skin side down, turning once, until golden brown, just starting to flake, and just cooked through, about 8 to 10 minutes.
Transfer fish to bowls. Reheat broth and divide among bowls, then sprinkle with chives and extra ground black pepper.

Summary of "Physical principles and functional consequences of nuclear compartmentalization in budding yeast."
One striking feature of eukaryotic nuclei is the existence of discrete regions, in which specific factors concentrate while others are excluded, thus forming microenvironments with different molecular compositions and biological functions. These domains are often referred to as subcompartments even though they are not membrane enclosed. Despite their functional importance the physical nature of these structures remains largely unknown. Here, we describe how the Saccharomyces cerevisiae nucleus is compartmentalized and discuss possible physical models underlying the formation and maintenance of chromatin associated subcompartments. Focusing on three particular examples, the nucleolus, silencing foci, and repair foci, we discuss the biological implications of these different models as well as possible approaches to challenge them in living cells.

Visualizing Secretory Cargo Transport in Budding Yeast.
A Visual Framework for Classifying Determinants of Cell Size.
A general term for single-celled rounded fungi that reproduce by budding. Brewers' and bakers' yeasts are SACCHAROMYCES CEREVISIAE; therapeutic dried yeast is YEAST, DRIED.
A large protein complex which acts as a signaling adaptor protein that allows communication between the various regulatory and functional components of GENETIC TRANSCRIPTION including DNA POLYMERASE II; GENERAL TRANSCRIPTION FACTORS; and TRANSCRIPTION FACTORS that are bound to upstream ENHANCER ELEMENTS. The mediator complex was originally studied in YEAST where at least 21 subunits were identified. Many of the yeast subunits are homologs to proteins in higher organisms that are found associated with specific nuclear receptors such as THYROID HORMONE RECEPTORS and VITAMIN D RECEPTORS.


CAPE GIRARDEAU, Mo., June 17, 2005 — The Southeast Missouri Symphony Orchestra continues its tradition of exciting programming, sampling music from many diverse areas and styles, in its 2005-2006 Commerce Bank Subscription Series.
The first concert of the season, "Encore! With Judith Farris," will be held Oct. 4 in Academic Auditorium. Memorable melodies from the world of classical music and from Broadway will be heard on this opening concert of the season. The program will begin with festive symphonic works inspired by Spanish and American dance, including Ravel's masterpiece, "Bolero." Judith Farris, celebrated vocalist and alumna of Southeast, will join the orchestra with renditions of popular Broadway show tunes for a rousing second half.
For the second concert of the season, the Southeast Missouri Chamber Orchestra Oct. 25 will perform one of the greatest organ concertos of all time, Poulenc's marvelous "Organ Concerto." The concert will be held in Old St. Vincent's Church. Dr. Gary Miller, chair of Southeast Missouri State University's Department of Music, will be the organ soloist for this special chamber orchestra program. This will be an opportunity to hear the lovely sounds of the newly installed organ at Old St. Vincent's Church.
The first University Choir/Choral Union concert of the year, "Festive Choral Works," will be held Nov. 29 in Academic Auditorium. Under the direction of Dr. Steven Hendricks, the University Choir and Choral Union will join the Southeast Missouri Symphony for this holiday program of choral and orchestral works. A highlight of the concert will be Poulenc's exciting "Gloria." Members of the community are invited to start their holiday season here at Southeast with this festive program of choral and orchestral music.
On March 14, Beethoven's "First Symphony" will be featured on the first concert of the spring semester. Those in attendance will experience the exuberance and energy of the great master, Beethoven, in this epic first symphony. Beethoven broke out of the traditional classical mold with this work, which conveys both the youthful spirits and mature mastery of Beethoven. Also featured on this program will be the winners of Southeast's 2005-2006 Concerto and Aria Competition.
The final concert of the series will be performed on May 2. Celebrating the 250th anniversary this year of Mozart's birth, Southeast's University Choir and Choral Union will again join the Southeast Missouri Symphony to present Mozart's late, great work, his "Requiem." Mysteries surround this work, composed in the final months of Mozart's life and left incomplete upon his death. Of one thing there can be no question: this is a work of genius, and hearing it performed live is a great human experience.
Tickets will go on sale beginning July 1 at The Performing Arts Box Office. The Box Office will be open from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Monday through Friday. Stop by the Rose Theatre lobby or call (573) 651-2265 to reserve tickets. Series subscription tickets will be available through Sept. 23 and are offered at a 10 percent discount.
