First Snow with my Snow Dogs…. - 12/21/09 04:57 AM
We had our first snow yesterday.  As usual we were told to expect the storm of the century, so I did what everyone else in Westchester was doing…got groceries, hoarded salt, made sure I had a good shovel and hunkered down.    Seriously,  the way we treat snow storms around here one would think that no one had ever heard of snow plows and other modern marvels that actually make it possible for you to be back in the real world within 24 hours.  Nevertheless, the storm and  subsequent dig-out gave me some quiet time with my canine family.   I have … (10 comments)

Scarsdale NY – Housing and Market Statistics for Third Quarter 2009 - 12/16/09 08:39 AM

Scarsdale NY housing has been in the cross hairs of the housing recession for a while now.  Initially,  it was resistant to the correction taking place in other parts of the country.  Eventually the forces that had hit other parts of the country so dramatically, came home to roost even in the most resilient areas of Westchester.  Real estate values in Scarsdale NY came … (0 comments)

Financial Regulation: What Went Wrong? - 12/06/09 02:31 PM
I was thinking of writing a post about this myself, but this is so well -written and thought out that  I felt a reblog would serve better.  There is no such thing as a totally "free market" unless anarchy is the desired result.  The "let's take a weed-whacker to regulation" obession of the last 30 years has shown us that properly applied regulation doesn't stagnate an ecomony, it stabilizes it.  The Yin/Yang relationship between too much regulation causing stagnation vs. too little creating chaos is something we all struggle with.
