See 'Alpha' Bets Turn Sour. Apparently, PERS, the Pennsylvania State Employees Retirement System used a strategy called, portable alpha to finance investments of $9.2 billion in hedge-funds. Now PERS could be forced to make cash payments of $2.5 billion or more to Wall St. trading partners, according to the Journal. Last month Anselm and I argued over whether Capital Guidance is a hedge fund or not. At that time I was concerned that MM's investments here could be in trouble if Capital Guidance were a hedge fund and found its credit lines had dried up, since hedge funds are highly leveraged. Anselm insists Capital Guidance isn't a hedge fund. But the PERS situation is another matter. PERS may have to liquidate some of its investments to shore up its losses. Let's hope Capital Guidance has them locked in for couple of years. Anyone want ot venture forth on this one? Maureen Yahoo!

Very poetic! --- In AsburyPark@yahoogroups.com, justifiedright [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Here's what I found out: Because AP is non-partisan, the City Council members have 30 days from the resignation to fill the seat. If they don't fill the seat, it stays vacant until May's election. If AP was a partisan town, the political party would put up 3 names for the council to choose from. If the council didn't act in 30 days, the party could fill the seat from the 3 names. So it will be up to Kevin, Jimmy, John, Ed to determine if they want to fill the seat or leave it vacant. I say fill it to the rim with Amy Quinn or Michael Brim. How's that for poetry! Or how about: Time to sail with Paul Vail. Or maybe: Here we go with Mario!

[AsburyPark] Rockwell/AsburyPark/Xanadu
While doing some research I came across a page of comments about the new Xanadu complex being built in the Meadow Lands. Designed by the Rockwell Group, the same architect engaged for our beachfront who is responsible for the 'Containers' I thought the following comment was rather connected. Posted by mcjasper on 09/11/08 at 11:54AM I am a recent graduate from Manhattan College and while driving down to my parents house at the shore many weekends would drive past the mall. I must say as a civil engineer, if I were the engineer of this building I would take a wet noodle and beat the architect. How any architect could think this is a good look is beyond me. It would have looked ugly in the 1970's when these colors were in style. Thank God I decided to move out of NJ and now live in Tampa, FL. Now I will not have to deal with an ugly mess called a mall like all you northern Jersey folk. P.S. stop coming down to the shore and cluttering up my beaches!!! http://blog.nj.com/jerseyblogs/2008/04/xanadu_too_ugly_for_the_meadow.html I continue to be concerned about the direction of architecture chosen for the beachfront and think that the Rockwell Group is an inappropriate match for the job at hand.

I agree! If you meter the oceanfront, meter ALL of the commercial downtown, like it used to be!

Resting on their elbows? --- In AsburyPark@yahoogroups.com, oakdorf [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Future parking revenues? As in the cases I mentioned yesterday, some munis are selling (leasing) the rights to future parking revenues. Looks like the going rate is about 25,000 per spot for a 75 year period. Additional kickers are bumps for a share of overtime fines. So if AP had 1200 spaces along the ocean, that would amount to about $37 millon paid upfront The parking spaces on the street are an asset. When the esperana was being sold, they were giving one spot. Additional spot was I think about $30k. I think dan came up with an appraisers method of justifying that cost. So how about it - should the city look into leasing the rights to parking in the city? Oceanfront spots higher then downtown and main (if it all)..

He still plays rollicking shows in Giants Stadium on every tour and, with the E Street Band, awes crowds with rumbling sets that include the same hits from those iconic 1970s albums. The state's true poet laureate is now a revered social critic, and his music reflects his age and political activism-and from a selfish standpoint, it's simply not as fun to blast the new stuff and sing along even though you can't hear your own voice, because it's not that type of music anymore.

[AsburyPark] Re: Thick-Skinned in Asbury Park?
Mario, Neither Cohen nor Springsteen ever refer to Asbury Park as a town of losers. Obviously he's referring to the lyric from Thunder Road, which never specifies a particular town. (though given its references to dusty beach roads and windblown hair [hard to imagine on snail paced Ocean Avenue], it's likely he had some town in southern Ocean County in mind.) Cohen, like Springsteen, is using it as a metaphor for any small town in America from which a young, creative person would want to escape. Yes, he specifies a boardwalk scene, but again, that could be Point, Seaside, Wildwood, whatever. He's talking about the shore in general, and you shouldn't take it as a slight. It's just a college kid writing about how everyone can get into Bruce's version of Santa Claus is Comin' to Town, which is true (until about the 10th time they play it ;). As to what he meant by horizontally inclined, I guess he was imagining the US as a person lying on his stomach, arms (New England) outstretched. Of course, one then wonders what metaphor he'd use for the south of Texas.

Ok. Cohen gets a pass because he's a college kid. The metaphor is, as you say, obvious in the context of the song.

In your numbers, you should also account for: the psossiblity that a spot can be used for MORE then 24 hours - car turnover. This is why pay stations are better (for the spot owner) as with a meter - you hunt for a meter with time vs a pay station is related directly to your car (in this scenario even without stubs in windshield). Also, look at long branch - free parking at Pier V for two hours. And they ticket and it's not well signed.

Thank you for the thought, I see myself in your post Several terms come to mind: - Selective Enforcement - Malicious Prosecution I've been photo documenting various sites for years. It's clear that there is some 'Personalizing' going on. Werner Yahoo!

[AsburyPark] Re: Thick-Skinned in Asbury Park?
WE? I want to Barf! --- In AsburyPark@yahoogroups.com, [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Thought I was in for a feel-good read. Until I came across the reference to Asbury Park as a town of losers. Guess I'm not thick-skinned. Feel free to educate this guy via the comment box or letters link. Anyone get what he means by horizontally inclined? = From Duke University's The Sandbox - Recess at http://tinyurl.com/6m3ccxPosted: 12/4/08 We New Jerseyans have thick skin about most offenses to the Garden State. (Just to be clear: It doesn't smell like garbage, I don't find it ironic that our state nickname invokes beauty and if New Jersey is the armpit of America, our glob of a country sure is horizontally inclined.) We'll tolerate most barbs, but don't you dare demean Bruce Springsteen, because The Boss is ours. He's stitched himself into the fabric of New Jersey, and by this point he's as culturally ingrained as diners, Tony Soprano and the neon lights on the boardwalk's tilt-a-whirls down the shore. It doesn't matter that Springsteen became rock and roll's future by yearning to leave New Jersey and find himself on the open road, to quit the boardwalk scene and pull out of a town full of losers, because even though he left... well, he never really did. He still plays rollicking shows in Giants Stadium on every tour and, with the E Street Band, awes crowds with rumbling sets that include the same hits from those iconic 1970s albums. The state's true poet laureate is now a revered social critic, and his music reflects his age and political activism-and from a selfish standpoint, it's simply not as fun to blast the new stuff and sing along even though you can't hear your own voice, because it's not that type of music anymore. There are no more Thunder Roads for Springsteen to find, only 41 shots for him to riff on. Except, that is, for about one month every year, when radio stations hide Born in the U.S.A. or The Rising and pull out a dusty track that hasn't been played in 11 months. Roy Bittan starts by tickling the piano to conjure bells, and the crowd roars in hysterical approval. Clarence Clemons does his best impersonation of Santa Claus and then, beautifully, Springsteen comes in with the simple words we've all memorized on the notes we all know are coming, yet somehow feel fresh every year: You better watch out/You better not cry/Better not pout/I'm telling you why. Then it's the crowd's turn, a reincarnation of the call-and-response Springsteen uses in all of his live shows now. It doesn't matter if you're in the car alone or if you're surrounded by thousands at the Stone Pony in Asbury Park; you yell, Santa Claus is coming to town! as loud, as hoarsely and with as much holiday fervor as you can. Max Weinberg ratchets up the percussion, Miami Steve croons in the background, Clarence solos on the sax-it's familiar, but invigorating. It's the best Christmas song of all time, because it captures the spirit of the holiday season. Find the bells and let loose. Embrace the company of others. And for goodness sake, fuhgeddabout the Jersey sneer, and be thankful the state is, indeed, not a glorified parking lot. We have, after all, given even the naughtiest of you the gift of Springsteen. = Happy Thankshallowistmas **Make your life easier with all your friends, email, and favorite sites in one place.

[AsburyPark] Cut and Run

[AsburyPark] Re: BeachCam Status
I have been trying to post for many hours the great news that the BeachCam has been operational since 3:20pm today. The camera has been re-aligned and now has a terrific view. It may well be a new camera. I will not post the URL to the camera in this message as I suspect that the URL is the reason that my posts are not making it to the group. Go to the City's webpage and click on City Cams, then BeachCam (you may have to hold you Ctrl key down if you have a pop-up blocker on a PC) Enjoy - and thanks for that cam!
