The U.S. consumer confidence index fell to 86.0 in September from a revised 93.4 in August, marking the first decline in five months, the Conference Board said Tuesday. Economists polled by MarketWatch had projected the index to decline to 92.3. In September, the present situation index, a measure of current conditions, fell to 89.4 from 93.9 and the future expectations index slid to 83.7 from 93.1. "A less positive assessment of the current job market, most likely due to the recent softening in growth, was the sole reason for the decline in consumers' assessment of present-day conditions," said Lynn Franco, director of economic indicators at board. "Looking ahead, consumers were less confident about the short-term outlook for the economy and labor market, and somewhat mixed regarding their future earnings potential. All told, consumers expect economic growth to ease in the months ahead."

Exercising a "pocket veto" for only the second time in office, President Obama Thursday rejected a bill that critics said would help banks push homes through the foreclosure process by making courts recognize notarizations made in other states.
HR 3808, The Interstate Recognition of Notarizations Act of 2010, sailed through Congress before the "robo signing" scandal erupted. In a statement, the White House said the president would not sign the bill, because it is "necessary to have further deliberations about the intended and unintended impact of this bill on consumer protections, including those for mortgages, before this bill can be finalized."

NORTH LAKHIMPUR, April 2 – One Ainuddin was arrested by police in Bangalmora in Lakhimpur district on the charges of dealing in fake gold and counterfeit currency notes. Police have been hunting for Ainuddin for his involvement in the illicit trade through which he had been duping people across the State and neighbouring Arunachal Pradesh, Nagaland and Manipur.
It may be recalled that Bangalmora region of Lakhimpur district, some 30 kms west of North Lakhimpur district headquarters, has earned the dubious distinction of fake gold and counterfeit currency trade for many years with full knowledge of the police and the district administration. Some arrests are being made in regular intervals by the police but no permanent solution has been achieved.
There have been allegations of involvement of police with the illicit traders as news of duped customers appear time to time.

Following a heartwarming performance by the Children's Community Choir of the Black Bear Conservatory of Music during the recent Hawley Winterfest, a crowd assembled at The Looking Glass Gallery learned that gallery owner and artist Juan Espino had a gift of his own for the community choral group.
Espino presented a large painting he created, which depicts members of the BBCM choir caroling in Hawley's Bingham Park. The artist painted the whimsical work to help raise funds in support of the Hawley-based nonprofit organization. Limited-edition, professionally framed gicl�e prints are available beginning at $150. All proceeds benefit the Children's Community Choir.
Espino's paintings are characterized by a primitive or folk-art style that focuses on capturing the uniqueness of communities in the Upper Delaware region. Earlier this year, the artist's work was featured at the Pennsylvania State Capital in Harrisburg, where BBCM students also performed.
BBCM launched its community vocal program in late 2011 under the direction of Alvera Sylvester and Stephen Faubel, both members of the BBCM faculty.
BBCM also kicked off its jazz studies program in late 2011, led by Richard Rusnak. The ensemble, The Musical Express, offers students in middle school and high school a unique collaborative experience in jazz technique and performance. The Musical Express also performed during the Hawley Winterfest at Harmony Presents in the Hawley Silk Mill.
In other recent news, the conservatory opened its Center for Musical Discovery across the street from its main campus at 520 Church St., Hawley. The center houses BBCM's jazz and choral programs, and will be the site for new programs to be announced in the spring.
BBCM offers high-quality private musical instruction in most instruments and voice to students ranging in age from under 10 to over 70. Classes are also offered in music theory and appreciation, ear training, sight-singing, rhythm and performance.
To order a print, call BBCM at 570-226-7606. For information about the conservatory, visit blackbearmusic.org.

"He got smacked by a 2 express train," said Bronx resident Anthony Escobar, 36. "He got fried and mangled."
"I heard the conductor yell, like give out a scream or a moan," said John D'Alessandro, who was in the first car of the train.
The subway came to a screeching halt and lost its power. Panicked passengers waited anxiously in the dark for more than an hour, as cops and firefighters tried to salvage the victim's body.
"I saw the arms, blood on the hands," said Leola Browder, 28. "Some people were upset and scared. Others were more worried about going where they had to go."
According to NBC New York, the teens were returning to Penn Station when they realized that they were on the wrong platform, hence their decision to cross the tracks. Rather than access the platform from the other side, they tried to run across the tracks and the teen was struck by an oncoming train.
THE RSPCA is appealing for help to find the owners of a dog that was shot and badly injured near Bloomsbury.
The team at Orchid Valley Veterinary Surgery in Cannonvale revealed the dog had been shot twice - once in the face and once in the leg - and not hit by a car as initially thought.
The young American Staffie-cross was found on Midge Point Rd late Saturday afternoon, November 10, and was rushed to the vet to receive treatment.
RSPCA Queensland said the owner of the dog - affectionately nick-named 'Whattha' by RSPCA staff - had not yet been found but anyone with information was urged to come forward.
Whattha will soon be transferred to the RSPCA to receive further care. Despite losing an eye, the young dog is in bright spirits.
"Whattha is still under veterinary care and will hopefully be fit to travel to RSPCA Brisbane campus in the coming days for further treatment," the RSPCA said.
"While Whattha has a long road to recovery, he is being well cared for and loved at present, we are hopeful he will make a full recovery with time."
RSPCA Queensland Chief Inspector Daniel Young said, "how someone can do this is entirely unthinkable".
"If anyone has information on the potential owner, or any information on what may have happened please make a report."
If you can assist in locating the owner of the dog or potential persons of interest, phone 1300 ANIMAL (1300 264 625).
Shares in Australia fell today at 11:58 local time. The S&P/ASX 200 index dropped by 32.1 points, or 0.5 per cent at 6000.7.
Among the losers were BHP Billiton and Woodside Petroleum.
But now things get perhaps somewhat less favorable for VDARE.COM supporters. Public opinion polls generally show that Americans regard KKKers, neo-Nazis, and such as among the vilest and worst monsters, whose crimes should be shown no mercy whatsoever by our government. Now it so happens that virtually all criminal KKKers, etc. who commit vile murders also happen to exhibit "racialist" views. So, although I suspect that 99.99% of Americans who exhibit "racialist" views do not commit vile murders, presumably all such "racialists" should be profiled on general principles and treated accordingly, e.g. barred from responsible jobs, strip-searched at airports or even banned from flying altogether, or perhaps simply interned as a preventative measure.
But look on the bright side. Once everyone who has ever written for VDARE.COM has been interned in prison as fitting the "profile" of a KKK murderer, we'll no longer need the crude medium of the Internet to continue our endless discussions on the validity of profiling.
VDARE.COM replies: we think the internet is cool, actually.
These banks sold a net of Rs 12,036 crore of debt securities on Wednesday.
NEW DELHI: Reserve Bank of India's projection of lower inflation and assurance on enough liquidity would be positive for banks’ treasury operation which could well boost earnings of many stressed government-owned lenders, two people familiar with the matter said.
These banks sold a net of Rs 12,036 crore of debt securities on Wednesday, this year's largest single day sale, capturing gains from falling bond yields.
On the same day, the benchmark yield dipped 13 basis points as prices rose. The benchmark paperThursday yielded 7.43%, the lowest since April 10. The sovereign gauge plunged about 57 basis points past two months. Bond prices are yield move in opposite direction.
When banks incur mark-to-market losses, they are mandated to make provisions against such losses. Now, they are not allowed to book mark-to-market profits but write back provisions, already made against earlier losses.
The central bank lowered the inflation forecast for the second time to 2.7-3.2% for second half of FY19, from 3.9-4.5% forecast made in the October policy meeting.
For the first half of fiscal 2020, inflation is projected at 3.8-4.2%, with upside risks.
“This is positive development as lower bond yield will reduce MTM provisions in banks which have not fully provided and in other cases write-backs could be there in third quarter earnings," said Ashutosh K Mishra, head of research, institutional equity at Ashika Stock Broking.
Despite RBI’s continuation with “calibrated tightening” stance, the softer tone of the policy made some market participants expect a cut in the benchmark rate next year, which if happens, would push yields down.
In overseas market, US Treasury yields slipped 34 basis points in past one month to 2.89% sparking off fears of recession.
Besides, global crude oil prices have fallen about 30% since October, reducing New Delhi’s oil import bills.
RBI injected durable liquidity amounting to Rs 36,000 crore in October and Rs 50,000 crore in November through open market purchase operations, bringing total durable liquidity injection to Rs 1.36 lakh crore for FY19.
The changing global scene may put further pressure on domestic yields.
Traders mostly expect the benchmark yield to trade in the range of 7.20-7.70% with an element of risk emanating from domestic elections.
“There could be some uncertainty over domestic elections,” said Mahajan.
Moreover, the trading activity has gone up in the sovereign debt market giving banks opportunity to tap trading profits.
At Rs 85,464 crore on Wednesday, the daily volume more than doubled this week. It recorded about Rs 79,000 crore on Thursday.

As GE, IBM, Comcast, Verizon, Cisco Systems, AT&T, Honeywell and a dozen other huge, well-established corporations begin to scope out their portions in the next IT greenfield of opportunity—the internet of things—there’s a little, 300-person company already standing out there with its own stake in the ground.
That company is C3 IoT, and it’s located on the shores of San Francisco Bay, a few miles down the Bayshore Freeway from neighboring Oracle, a company that hasn’t talked about it yet but also has the wherewithal to be an IoT participant.
While C3 IoT itself is a bit of an unknown at this point, its founder, Tom Siebel, is quite well known in the IT world. He was an executive at Oracle in the late 1980s, started Siebel Systems in 1993, then sold it back to Oracle for $5.8 billion in 2006.
That was back in the days when a billion dollars was a billion dollars.
We bring this up because Siebel, 64, a 40-year veteran of Silicon Valley, was named this past week as Ernst & Young's 2017 Entrepreneur of The Year, a prestigious award in the IT community. Siebel founded C3 IoT in 2009 as an IoT platform and applications company; since then it has pivoted to add in machine learning as a basic part of its secret sauce.
“It is a great honor to accept this award on behalf of the many talented women and men with whom I have the privilege to work with every day at C3 IoT,” Siebel said in his acceptance speech at the awards event in San Jose, Calif.
