	January effect - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The January effect (sometimes called "year-end effect") is a calendar effect wherein stocks, especially small-cap stocks, have historically tended to rise markedly in price during the period starting on the last day of December and ending on the fifth trading day of January.
		This effect is owed to year-end selling to create tax losses, recognize capital gains, effect portfolio window dressing, or raise holiday cash.
		In the last couple of years, after the January effect became widely known to the public, it has become less pronounced and has started shifting to December causing a rise in stock prices, known as a Santa Claus rally and the December Effect.

	Positive Atheism's Big List of Mark Twain Quotations
		Concentration of power in a political machine is bad; and an Established Church is only a political machine; it was invented for that; it is nursed, cradled, preserved for that; it is an enemy to human liberty, and does no good which it could not better do in a split-up and scattered condition.
		Which is nonsense; for even the Bible knows enough to know that if the oldest veteran there could get his lost heyday back again for an hour he would cast that commandment to the winds and ruin the first woman he came across, even though she were an entire stranger.
		The person who wrote the advertisements is without doubt the most ignorant person now alive on the planet, also without doubt he is an idiot, an idiot of the 33rd degree and scion of an ancestral procession of idiots stretching back to the Missing Link....

		Samuel Clemens, who came to be known as Mark Twain, was a natural-born storyteller who was the first writer to recognize that art could be created out of the American language.
		Part A. In the film Mark Twain, Samuel Clemens is described as “an enormous noticer.” Much of what he noticed as a boy growing up in the small Mississippi River town of Hannibal, Missouri, found its way into his writings in books such as The Adventures of Tom Sawyer and The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn.

		I do still have trouble remembering which chieftain is which, also which of Caesar's lieutenants is which, except for Labienus and those famous for other reasons: Quintus the less-famous Cicero, Caninius Rebilus the half-day consul, and of course Mark Antony (only one mention so far, in VII.81.6).
		I just realized that Caninius Rebilus' consulship was 2047 years ago today, though even in Italy there are a few hours to go before the anniversary hour, since he doesn't seem to have been named consul until the afternoon of the last day of 45.
		Yes, Caesar is massively underrated because of the Mark Twain effect -- once a school text, always a school text.
