Parcel Rate Outlook 2009
UPS announced rate increases for 2009, with average increases of 5.9% for ground packages and 4.9% for air express and international shipments. UPS Freight rates will increase 5.9% on average. The increases are due to rising costs and weak economic conditions reducing shipping volumes. Shippers are advised to negotiate rates with carriers and consider using the USPS to take advantage of competitive options.

This email exchange discusses citing job loss estimates from the EIA (Energy Information Administration) in a response. Mario Lewis's contact at EIA denied having estimates of job losses. Michael Catanzaro suggests citing the numbers as "government estimates" which Mario agrees works. Catanzaro then provides the EIA estimates that a greenhouse gas cap proposal would lead to a loss of 171,000 non-farm jobs by 2025 and average losses of 62,000 jobs from 2006-2025, along with reduced economic growth.
Anthony Hobley at Sitra on 21 May 2014: Carbon Risks for Investors
Yksi johtavista hiiliriskien asiantuntijoista, Carbon Tracker Initiativen CEO Anthony Hobley kertoi Sitran järjestämässä keskustelutilaisuudessa tuoreista tutkimuksista. Näiden mukaan sijoittajien pitäisi havahtua analysoimaan niitä taloudellisia riskejä, joita fossiilisiin polttoaineisiin kohdistuvilla sijoituksilla on.

According to him, investors need to analyse the financial risks related to investments in high-cost, high-carbon fossil fuel assets.
Debt dynamics, the primary deficit, and sustainability
The document discusses the basics of government debt dynamics and sustainability. It explains that while the US debt is currently average for developed nations, projections show continuing growth without policy changes. The debt can reach a sustainable equilibrium depending on factors like the primary deficit, GDP growth, and interest rates. However, an unsustainable primary deficit that remains over time could lead to a "debt explosion" and crisis requiring austerity measures.
What is the cyclical deficit and why should we care
The document discusses the cyclically adjusted deficit and why it is important to consider. It explains that the cyclically adjusted deficit shows how large the deficit would be if the economy was at full employment, removing the impact of automatic stabilizers. It notes that comparing the actual and adjusted deficits can provide insight into how much of the deficit is due to the current recession versus longer-term policy and spending decisions. However, measuring the output gap and potential GDP is not perfectly accurate, so the adjusted deficit is only an estimate. The document also discusses challenges with using Congressional Budget Office projections of future deficits, as their forecasts rely on assumptions about future policy that may not reflect reality.

Fiscal cliff deal details and critical appraisal
The document discusses the fiscal cliff faced by the U.S. government at the end of 2012. It provides background on the Budget Control Act of 2011 and the series of disagreements between Democrats and Republicans that led to failure to reach a budget deal. Lawmakers had 3 options: do nothing and let policies take effect, cancel some or all tax increases and spending cuts, or reach a compromise. On January 1, 2013, the Senate agreed to a last-minute deal that increased taxes on individuals making over $400,000 and couples over $450,000 but postponed discussion of spending cuts. The deal provided some short-term certainty but left major long-term issues around the national debt unaddressed.
OECD Green Talks LIVE - Investing in Climate, Investing in Growth
Combining ambitious climate action and economic reforms will boost GDP over time rather than harm growth. By 2021, GDP across G20 economies could increase 1% and by 2050 the growth effect could rise to 2.8% when accounting for avoided climate damages. While upfront infrastructure investments are needed to transition to renewable energy, these will be offset by savings from lower fossil fuel expenditures. More ambitious climate policies that place an accurate price on carbon can be achieved without damaging economic growth when paired with economic reforms.

The document discusses climate change and democracy in Scotland. It notes that climate change will fundamentally alter the world through changes to the sea and atmosphere. Parliaments legislate and scrutinize governments, playing an important role in implementing ambitious climate change legislation in Scotland. The Scottish Parliament has scrutinized the Scottish government's plans to reduce emissions as required by the Climate Change Act, finding areas that need improvement in coordination and concrete policy proposals. Engagement between governments and parliaments, as well as citizens, is important to effectively address climate change.

Fiscal_Cliff
The document discusses the "fiscal cliff" facing the U.S. government at the end of 2012, when tax cuts are set to expire and automatic spending cuts will be triggered. It explains that allowing these measures to take effect could cut the deficit in half over 10 years but also potentially push the economy back into recession, while canceling the tax increases and spending cuts would increase the deficit and debt burden. The Congressional Budget Office projects two scenarios for 2013-2022: the baseline scenario with lower deficits but also lower spending and higher taxes, and an alternative scenario with higher deficits from lower taxes and more spending.

State Of Texas Water Plan
This document discusses the state water plan for Texas. It notes that water is key to Texas' economy, which has grown significantly and is projected to double in population by 2060 while water supplies decrease by 18%. Without implementing the state water plan to ensure sufficient water supplies, Texas could face water shortages that would be catastrophic to the economy, costing billions per year. The plan requires $17 billion in funding to develop needed water management strategies to provide enough water even during severe droughts.

The document discusses estimates of global fossil fuel subsidies from various organizations like the IEA and IMF. The IEA estimates subsidies of $544 billion in 2012 and $557 billion in 2008, while the IMF estimates total subsidies of $1.9 trillion annually. These subsidies distort the market and encourage continued investment in polluting fossil fuels rather than clean energy. Total subsidies are much larger than reported when also considering tax benefits, health and environmental externalities. Removing subsidies could significantly reduce greenhouse gas emissions and help transition to renewable resources, though most subsidies currently support developing nations' continued reliance on fossil fuels for industrialization.
Fossil Fuel Subsidies and Climate
This document discusses fossil fuel subsidies and their impact on climate change. Some key points:
- Fossil fuel subsidies totaled an estimated $523 billion globally in 2011 according to the IEA. These subsidies undermine efforts to limit global warming and represent a significant drain on national budgets.
- Subsidies incentivize increased fossil fuel use and discourage investment in renewable energy. Removing subsidies could reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 12% of the amount needed to keep global warming below 2 degrees Celsius.
- Many countries, including G20 members, spend billions on fossil fuel subsidies each year through various policies. This dwarfs international climate finance commitments and sends the wrong price signals to investors regarding carbon emissions.

Final Energy Essay
Canada's energy policies have been increasingly shaped by environmental considerations. Laws like the Renewable Fuels Strategy and Energy Efficiency Act have promoted renewable energy and reduced emissions. However, the document suggests Canada's primary motivations may have been energy security and economic factors rather than just environmental protection. While partnerships with the US have improved efficiency and supported emission targets, they also helped secure Canada's economic relationship and growth. Overall, while environmental issues have contributed to Canada's energy strategies, concerns over trade, security and economic impacts may have been equally or more influential drivers of policy changes.

Economic Data
The document discusses U.S. Census Bureau data on manufacturer shipments, inventories, and orders. It also references charts showing Cass Information Systems freight index data from 2006 to 2010, the euro to U.S. dollar exchange rate, and U.S. unemployment rate data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics. The document appears to be compiling various economic indicators and data sources for analysis.
Fuel
The document contains charts and graphs showing trends in diesel fuel costs and surcharges from 2002 to 2010. It shows that the average cost of diesel fuel peaked in 2008 at over $4.75 per gallon before declining. It also shows fuel surcharge percentages for air and trucking industries ranging from 14-21% depending on the carrier. Bunker fuel costs for transpacific shipping routes peaked in July 2008 at over $800 per metric ton before falling.
Ad Techs Ltl Shipping Guide
The document provides an overview of LTL (less than truckload) shipping, including important concepts like freight classes, the NMFC (National Motor Freight Classification), and how to properly prepare shipments. Some key points covered are:
1) The NMFC defines commodity classifications that determine freight rates. It assigns item numbers and classes ranging from 50 to 500.
2) Shipper responsibilities include proper packaging, labeling, completing a bill of lading, and selecting a carrier.
3) Freight rates are based on distance, weight, density, value, loadability, and NMFC classification. Rates typically decrease at higher weight breaks.
Fed Ex How To Pack
The document provides guidance on properly packing and preparing packages for shipment. It discusses packing non-fragile and fragile items, odd-shaped items, and perishables. It recommends using box-in-box packing methods with cushioning for fragile items. For non-fragile items, it suggests using fillers to prevent shifting. Special requirements are outlined for certain item types. The document also provides labeling and sealing recommendations, and reviews size/weight limits and restricted shipment rules. The objective is safely transporting items without damage.
Ltl Discount Vs Fuel Surcharge
This document compares shipping costs from Atlanta, GA to Cincinnati, OH for a 1000 lb shipment with Milan and FedEx under different discount and fuel surcharge scenarios. Milan offers a 70% discount and charges a 17.9% fuel surcharge, resulting in a cost of $188.52. FedEx offers a 75% discount and charges a 12.3% fuel surcharge, resulting in a lower cost of $177.71. Though FedEx has a higher base rate, their larger discount and lower fuel surcharge make them less expensive than Milan for this shipment.
Small Package Overpack
This document compares the costs of shipping multiple small packages individually versus overpacking them into a single larger box. Shipping 40 pounds overpacked into a single carton costs $15, while shipping the same amount individually in small packages would be $27.49, resulting in 45% savings when overpacked into a single box.
10+2 Customs Presentation
The document outlines new requirements from US Customs and Border Protection (CBP) called "10+2" which requires importers and carriers to provide additional trade data in advance for non-bulk cargo shipments arriving in the US by vessel for security purposes, including requiring importers to file an Importer Security Filing (ISF) with 10 or 5 data elements depending on the cargo and requiring carriers to submit Vessel Stow Plans. CBP will have a flexible enforcement period to help the trade comply with a goal of improving supply chain security.

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).

zkStudyClub - Reef: Fast Succinct Non-Interactive Zero-Knowledge Regex Proofs
This paper presents Reef, a system for generating publicly verifiable succinct non-interactive zero-knowledge proofs that a committed document matches or does not match a regular expression. We describe applications such as proving the strength of passwords, the provenance of email despite redactions, the validity of oblivious DNS queries, and the existence of mutations in DNA. Reef supports the Perl Compatible Regular Expression syntax, including wildcards, alternation, ranges, capture groups, Kleene star, negations, and lookarounds. Reef introduces a new type of automata, Skipping Alternating Finite Automata (SAFA), that skips irrelevant parts of a document when producing proofs without undermining soundness, and instantiates SAFA with a lookup argument. Our experimental evaluation confirms that Reef can generate proofs for documents with 32M characters; the proofs are small and cheap to verify (under a second).
