first_imgMGN Stock Image.ALBANY – A group of state legislators that survived sexual abuse as children are looking to extend the Child Victims Act lookback window.The window lifts the statute of limitations for victims of abuse and allows them to seek legal action against institutions for individuals they feel should be held responsible.Since the window began more than six months ago, more than 1,600 cases have been filed statewide.In a message to Gov. Andrew Cuomo, the group of four lawmakers agree that the response so far from victims across the state proves there is much more work to be done.

The Broadway revival of Cabaret celebrated a significant boost in sales this past week, bringing in a gross of $816,760—up $130,489 from the previous week. Newcomer Emma Stone, in her second week in the Roundabout production, along with Tony winner Alan Cumming proved to be a perfectly marvelous pair (Cumming was out for a number of Stone’s first performances). Next week, look out for a spike in box office figures across the board courtesy of Thanksgiving, particularly for those titles appealing to families and visitors. We’ll also keep an eye on the grosses for The Last Ship and Side Show, which have had disappointing box office receipts to date. The news that the former’s composer Sting is joining the cast and the latter’s no doubt strong word-of-mouth following its November 17 opening, should boost both tuners.

first_img FacebookTwitterLinkedInEmailPrint分享Julie Silvederio for SNL:Fitch Ratings released Feb. 18 its bearish outlook of China’s coal sector, citing “losses and plunging profits” reported in 2015 by 28 of the country’s 33 listed coal companies and the unlikelihood of coal price recovery in 2016 amid a supply glut and weaker demand.Twenty eight of the 33 coal companies listed on China’s Shanghai and Shenzhen Stock Exchanges reported an aggregate net loss of over 4 billion Chinese yuan in 2015 against 37 billion Chinese yuan of net profit in 2014, according to the ratings agency’s special report. It said the 28 coal companies “represent the strongest subset among China’s more than 6,000 coal-mining companies,” and that the rest are in worse condition.“Twenty of the 28 companies reported a net loss in 2015, while the remaining eight saw their net income cut by between 57% and 93% from a year ago,” Fitch analysts wrote.Fitch also indicated that only China Shenhua Energy Co. Ltd., Yanzhou Coal Mining Co. Ltd. and Shanxi Lu’an Environmental Energy Co. Ltd booked net income of over 200 million Chinese yuan among the eight companies that reported profits in 2015.Citing oversupply of thermal coal as the major factor, Fitch forecast a difficult recovery for coal prices.Full article ($): Fitch sees dismal year for Chinese coal amid supply glut and decreased demand Citing Oversupply, Fitch Is Bearish on China Coal Sectorlast_img read more

Investment fund fire sales could trigger corporate bond ‘dislocation’

No Comments

first_imgLarge scale redemptions from investment funds could spark turbulence in the corporate bond market and threaten the stability of financial markets and institutions, according to a new paper published by the Bank of England.The paper – which is intended as a first-step in developing a financial system-wide stress simulation framework – looked at how the behaviour of several sectors like investment funds and broker-dealers could “interact to spread and amplify stress” in corporate bond markets.“Under a severe but plausible set of assumptions regarding market participant behaviours, investor redemptions could result in material increases in spreads in the corporate bond market and, in the extreme, in corporate bond market dislocation, threatening the stability of financial markets and institutions,” the paper said. Explaining the rationale behind the paper, Alex Brazier, executive director and member of the Financial Policy Committee, said a key priority for the Bank was to assess how the non-bank part of the financial system, which includes investment funds, pension funds and sovereign wealth funds, responds to economic shocks. He noted that globally, assets held by non-bank financial intermediaries had increased by more than a third since the financial crisis. And while this growth had been beneficial, Brazier said the new structure of the system had yet to be tested by “severe shocks”.The Bank’s simulation model found that weekly levels of redemptions from funds equivalent to 1% of their total assets — levels experienced in the financial crisis — could increase corporate bond interest rates for companies with high credit ratings by around 40 basis points.The model also examined the scale of redemptions that would be needed to overwhelm the capacity of dealers to absorb those sales, resulting in market dysfunction.“Investor redemptions one third higher than those observed during the crisis could be sufficient for this to happen — an unlikely, but not impossible, event,” Brazier said.And while such market dislocation was a “tail risk”, the paper said the probability of it crystallising could increase, especially if the potential demand for liquidity, including that arising from the investment fund sector, continued to grow relative to the supply of liquidity by dealers and other investors.“[This paper] has allowed a scenario to be explored in which large scale redemptions from open-ended investment funds trigger sales by those funds, with resulting spillover effects to dealers and hedge funds,” Brazier said.The paper noted funds’ liquidity mismatch during the summer of 2016, when following the Brexit vote, a number of UK open-ended property funds experienced significant outflows and had to suspend any further redemptions.Brazier said that while it was too soon to use these simulations to draw policy conclusions, they could be used to inform macroprudential policies regarding market-based finance activities; the appropriate level of bank resilience and the “precise design of regulations placed on banks and others to ensure that their individual safety is achieved as far as possible in a way that also promotes the stability of market-based finance”.The paper was written by Yuliya Baranova, Jamie Coen, Pippa Lowe, Joseph Noss and Laura Silvestri.last_img read more

3D interactive ‘embryo atlas’ gives never-before-seen detail of unborn baby

first_imgLifeSiteNews 25 November 2016Family First Comment: This is very cool – and is another ‘nail in the coffin’ of the pro-abortion movement. #ChooseLife #NotABlobOfTissueA team of Dutch embryologists has produced an unprecedented three-dimensional atlas demonstrating how the unborn child develops in the first eight weeks of life.“Everyone thinks we already know this, but I believe we know more about the moon than about our own development,” Bernadette de Bakker, of the University of Amsterdam, who co-led the project with Professor Antoon Moorman told the Guardian.Textbooks illustrations of fetal development still often rely on decades-old observations, or inferences made from studies of mice or chicken embryos, noted de Bakker.It took the University of Amsterdam team over 45,000 hours to meticulously map the development of the unborn child, during which time embryologists supervised more than 75 students who analyzed over 15,000 tissue screens from the US-based Carnegie Collection of Embryos.That collection, begun in 1913,  has a number of human embryos dating from some 60 to 100 years ago, which were collected during procedures such as hysterectomies, reported the Guardian.The results of the project are “14 interactive three-dimensional models of human embryology and a database encompassing 34 embryos spanning the first 2 months of human development,” according to a synopsis in Science Magazine.The embryo atlas will allow scientists to research, among other things, the development of congenital “malformations…which have an incidence of 3% in the human population and cause up to one-quarter of all neonatal deaths,” it noted.The 3D Atlas of Human Embryology can be viewed here.READ MORE: https://www.lifesitenews.com/news/3d-interactive-embryo-atlas-gives-never-before-seen-detail-of-unborn-babyDetailed human embryo development revealed in three-dimensional ‘atlas’Stuff co.nz 29 November 2016A new three-dimensional “atlas” of human embryonic development shows the early stages of growth in stunning detail.A team of researchers from the Academic Medical Centre in the Netherlands created interactive modelling software to study the early stages of human development from conception to two months.The digital model and the resulting atlas offers embryologists and researchers a searchable glimpse into the first eight weeks of development in the human womb.University of Otago department of anatomy lecturer and stem cell researcher Dr Tim Hore said the medical establishment was only just beginning to understand human development, for the simple reason human embryos were rarely available for scientific study and available collections were difficult to access.Hore studies the first two weeks of human development, about which little is known. Science was constantly interrogating previous findings and many textbooks struggled to keep pace with developments, he said.From a teaching perspective, computer modelling was welcome as many of the foundations of embryology were based on a small number of old collections.“This is really helpful. People like us who teach development, we’re constantly having to update all of our stuff to keep pace with these new developments and refinements and how we understand human development. There are a lot of areas of science where text books are not keeping pace.“It’s a very exciting time for embryologists.“My research interests are even earlier in development than those discussed in this paper and although we know quite a lot from IVF clinics about what happens immediately after fertilisation, there is a big black hole of understanding regarding the events beyond this.“Moreover, we are only just beginning to benefit from the power of computational modelling when it comes to these early events in human development, and this study is a powerful example of the gains that can be made.”READ MORE: http://www.stuff.co.nz/science/86974307/detailed-human-embryo-development-revealed-in-threedimensional-atlasKeep up with family issues in NZ.

And that’s never going to change,” he said. FacebookTwitterWhatsAppEmail分享 He also said their display, as they scored twice in the last nine minutes to beat Barcelona 3-2 in the semifinal on Thursday, showed that “some youngsters have arrived.” “You can see that they want to improve, and that gives me immense hope,” he said. “My energy is my footballers. When I see that my players are good, I’m not afraid of anything.” Facing an opponent like Real “helps us and makes us better,” he said, praising Zidane as “a coach who wins everything, who conveys that feeling that you have to win.” Zidane said matches like Sunday’s final were the most important to Real “because there’s a trophy at stake.” “That’s what we’ve prepared for,” he said. “That’s the law of this club.” Promoted ContentThe Models Of Paintings Whom The Artists Were Madly In Love WithBest & Worst Celebrity Endorsed Games Ever MadeSome Impressive And Almost Shocking Robots That ExistWho’s The Best Car Manufacturer Of All Time?8 Shows You Didn’t Want To Watch At The EndDid You Know There’s A Black Hole In The Milky Way?Top 10 Female Disney Villains You’ll Definitely Fall In Love WithWho Is The Most Powerful Woman On Earth?Who Earns More Than Ronaldo?Which Country Is The Most Romantic In The World?The Very Last Bitcoin Will Be Mined Around 2140.

Zidane, who returned to Real last season, told a press conference for Sunday’s match that he considers himself a “better” coach than he was during his first term on the club’s bench from 2016 to 2018. Zinedine Zidane and Diego Simeone pose next to the Spanish Super Cup trophy on the eve of the final in Jeddah Atletico coach Diego Simeone, who spoke later, agreed. “Of course, you get better with the years,” said the Argentine, in his ninth season as Atletico coach. “All these accumulated experiences, if you learn from them, you get better in life. I think I’ve progressed in life as well as in football, and I think that’s linked.” Zidane also linked growth as a coach to growth as a person. “I listen a lot, because the people around me are really worthwhile. That’s why I’m making a lot of progress as a coach, as a person, and that’s always been my goal,” he said. Zidane won three straight Champions League titles in his first spell in charge at the Bernabeu yet he feels he has improved at his job. “I consider myself better, I feel good, I feel I’m progressing,” the French coach said. “We learn from every situation, from people.” He returned in March with Real struggling and has revived their form. “The team hasn’t changed much,” he said. “But I have.” Atletico overhauled their squad last summer and according to Simeone are in a “transitional year”.last_img read more
