    TRANSCRIPT Citi 2010 Financial Services Conference March 11, 2010 Host Keith Horowitz, CFA, Citi Investment Research Speaker Vikram Pandit, Citi Chief Executive Officer John Gerspach, Citi Chief Financial Officer PRESENTATION KEITH: I'm very pleased to introduce our next speaker, Vikram Pandit. Vikram took over as CEO of Citigroup in December of 2007 and since then has spearheaded a half a trillion reduction in our balance sheet, reduced the expense run rate by 20%, significantly enhanced our risk management infrastructure, and most importantly, has provided strategic clarity to our business model, including the exit of several businesses, all while maintaining focus on our clients and building on our solid international platform. So, essentially, he's taken a total restructuring of our business in the midst of one of the worst economic environments of our time to better position us for the next cycle. Here to tell you more about the Citi story is CEO Vikram Pandit. VIKRAM: Thank you. Thank you, Keith, and good afternoon. Thanks all for joining me today. I appreciate this opportunity to speak to you about Citi and where we are. Over the last few months, I've had the opportunity now to go to around approximately twenty countries where Citi is located. And when I go around, I get a chance to meet government officials, obviously our clients, and of course our people And what is striking to me is regardless of where I go, how deeply rooted Citi is in these countries. And we've known these markets well for a number of years because we've been in these countries for decades, and some of them for more than 100 years.

  • A Lady Floats!
    November 2018 Meeting: A Lady Floats! Posted on November 28, 2018 by Dennis Phillips Ring Report Ring #170 “The Bev Bergeron Ring” SAM Assembly #99 November 2018 Meeting Mike Matson gaveled the meeting to order. Several visitors were present: Mark Gagnon from Vermont, Joshua Stenkamp and Mark O’Brien and ,son, Alexander. Mark lived in Orlando and performed on cruise ships, Busch Garden, Circus World and Nickelodeon TV before moving to the New York area. We had an interesting discussion about the magic illusions in the stage show at the old Circus World attraction here in Central Florida. Bev Bergeron had a story about Owens and Les Smith providing the illusions, Dan had stories about working there as the illusionist and Mark O’Brien also performed there. The biggest mystery is that no one is sure what ever happened to several truckloads of illusions when the show closed. Bev Bergeron added more to his last “Teach In”. It was how to use notecards with slate moves to achieve some incredible effects. He showed how to make writing appear on what seemed like empty cards and a three card monte. Dan Stapleton did the magic history of Sneaky Pete Remco magic sets. He showed the first, second and third sets and some history of each. Mike Matson’s “Theory and Thaumaturgy” topic was “Repeatability” and how many effects do repeat themselves but each action should build up the tension. He used Cups and Balls, Linking Rings and Card’s Across as examples. Sebastian Mitdtvaage had a mini-lecture on his card magic.

  • The Representation of Suicide in the Cinema
    The Representation of Suicide in the Cinema John Saddington Submitted for the degree of PhD University of York Department of Sociology September 2010 Abstract This study examines representations of suicide in film. Based upon original research cataloguing 350 films it considers the ways in which suicide is portrayed and considers this in relation to gender conventions and cinematic traditions. The thesis is split into two sections, one which considers wider themes relating to suicide and film and a second which considers a number of exemplary films. Part I discusses the wider literature associated with scholarly approaches to the study of both suicide and gender. This is followed by quantitative analysis of the representation of suicide in films, allowing important trends to be identified, especially in relation to gender, changes over time and the method of suicide. In Part II, themes identified within the literature review and the data are explored further in relation to detailed exemplary film analyses. Six films have been chosen: Le Feu Fol/et (1963), Leaving Las Vegas (1995), The Killers (1946 and 1964), The Hustler (1961) and The Virgin Suicides (1999). These films are considered in three chapters which exemplify different ways that suicide is constructed. Chapters 4 and 5 explore the two categories that I have developed to differentiate the reasons why film characters commit suicide. These are Melancholic Suicide, which focuses on a fundamentally "internal" and often iII­ understood motivation, for example depression or long term illness; and Occasioned Suicide, where there is an "external" motivation for which the narrative provides apparently intelligible explanations, for instance where a character is seen to be in danger or to be suffering from feelings of guilt.
