It goes like this
Derivatives are financial instruments that have no intrinsic value but derive their value from something else. Basically, they are just bets. You can “hedge your bet” that something you own will go up by placing a side bet that it will go down. “Hedge funds” hedge bets in the derivatives market. Bets can be placed on anything, from the price of tea in China to the movements of specific markets.

some people forget that the temp will not instinctively know that she needs to book the interview room, make copies of resumes for all interviewers, tell the interviewers that the interview is happening, and prepare application forms for all the applicants. especially when all you told her to do was "call the applicants and make sure they can come on tuesday at 2pm."
If you forget this, the temp might make this face.

Tapestry in the State Library
Oz by Martin Sharp
About my photographs.
The photograph of the Library was taken from the women's bathroom in the restaurant Level 41, (the food was also pretty good).
The 'two planes' was taken when a plan flew past so close to the window by the time I whipped my camera out it had past by, but low and behold there was another one just a little further in the distance. So in the image you can see two jet streams.
I shot Queen Mary 2 from the Mitchell roof

Same Sex Marriage
National Day of Action for Same Sex Marriage! Sunday August 3rd1pm Taylor Square
Community Action Against Homophobia (CAAH) in NSW has called a rally as part of the National Day of Action for Same Sex Marriage, to be held on Sunday August 3rd, 1pm Taylor Square, Darlinghurst. Queer student activists endorsed the rally at this year's Queer Collaborations Student Conference in Melbourne and committed to build the rallies happening all over the country in early August, but we need your help!The Theme of "Freedoms are Won, not given" that was celebrated at the student conference this year, marking 30 years since the first Mardi Gras, is just as relevant today as the new Rudd government continues the legacy of the homophobic Howard government. True, Rudd has made inroads into getting rid of some of the legal discriminations against same sex couples, but the Labor government still refuses to acknowledge our relationships as being worthy of the title of "marriage", and continues to deny us the right to be parents. The impacts of this continued discrimination for same sex couples is both emotionally and practically devastating in many cases.Help us put some political pressure on Rudd to right the wrongs against the Queer community that have gone on for too long. These rights have been won in California under a super conservative government, so it can be done, but we have to win our freedoms, they will not be given. So get your friends and family along on Sunday August 3rd and rally for Queer rights. Send this email to your friends and post to any email lists you subscribe to. Come along to help with the organising meetings on Wednesday nights at UTS. You can even make a donation to the campaign to the CAAH bank account with the Commonwealth bank BSB 062 006 AcNo 1069 9214For Sydney Rally Details, contact Heidi 0419 377 396For Details about joining CAAH and helping out, contact Emilia 0401 519 593For other states..Melbourne – James 0412 906 978Perth – Emma 0416 436 399Canberra – Farida 0412 109 160Brisbane – Rebecca 0438 277 561Same Sex Marriage RightsFull Adoption and Parenting RightsCivil Unions with Ceremonies
