Tom was pre-deceased by his parents and five of his sisters.

 

Tom was born to Anne Cleary Curran and Thomas Francis Curran in New York City on Jan. 31, 1928. His parents were Irish immigrants who met and married in New York. Tom was raised in New York in a family of six older sisters and a younger brother. Tom was the lifelong rock of the family for his sisters and brother.

 

He was a graduate of Bishop Loughlin High School, Brooklyn, N.Y. and attended Manhattan College School Of Engineering. He was a corporal in the United States Army in the Korean conflict. Upon return from Korea, he began a 37 career with the Bell System and participated in the divestiture of the Bell System. His final assignment with the Bell System was as a District Manager responsible for Southern Manhattan including the New York Stock Exchange, Commodities Exchange and World Trade Centers where his office was located.

 

Subsequent to his retirement, he relocated to Maine and started a second career as a dispatcher with the Maine State Police. He worked for nearly 12 years with the Maine State Police, along with his son, Trooper Kevin Curran. It was a unique working relationship which brought him both adventures and joy. He had particular affinity for working troopers and detectives.

Obituary: James Taravella

December 15, 2006

 

*** begin quote ***

 

Newburgh, N.Y. James Alan Taravella, 57, of Newburgh, died on December 13, 2006 at St. Luke’s-Cornwall Hospital in Newburgh

 

Beloved husband and best friend of Rosemarie Taravella, the best father a kid could ever want to Timothy N. and Allison D. Taravella, Jessica F. and Don W. Petree, Jr., and Rebekah Marie Taravella. Cherished grandfather of Zachary Gandolfo and Maximilian Ellsworth Taravella

 

He was a very special uncle to Sarah, Christine and Michael Crana. Also surviving are his aunts, Jean Schier, Mary Benafante, Mary Taravella and his father-in-law, Cyril Tansey, Sr. He is also survived by numerous brothers and sisters-in-law, cousins, nieces and nephews

 

Born in Brooklyn, N.Y. in 1949 to the late Adolph and Frances Taravella, his parents and grandparents moved to Vails Gate in 1951

 

He attended St. Thomas of Canterbury and Saint Patrick’s Schools, where he played baseball and basketball, two lifelong passions. He graduated from Manhattan College with a Bachelors of Arts in English. He received a Masters Degree from Fordham University

 

For the past 32 years, he taught thousands of middle school students the joy of reading, writing and poetry. Additionally, he instilled a life-long passion in his family for reading, sports, and the importance of living a full life. He especially loved reading biographies and about civil war history

 

“Father English” loved his students almost as much as his family. He started each school year with an overly dramatic reading of the “Tell-Tale Heart

 

His quick wit and sense of humor made him a much-sought after master of ceremonies for the retirement parties of his colleagues. He is best remembered for singing “Mack The Knife” at wedding receptions throughout the tristate area

 

An avid crossword puzzler, he competed against the clock to finish The New York Times Sunday crossword puzzle

 

“Coach T.” devoted much of his life to instilling respect, loyalty and sportsmanship in all of his players. These young men were a second family to him and he always took pride in their accomplishments both on the field and off

 

Jim and Rea raised three blessed children who cannot begin to fathom a life without him. Always a proud father, he was a constant source of joy, pride and love to Tim, Jessica and Becky. His two grandchildren, Zach and Max were the focus of so much of his pride and love. He was planning to teach them the joys of golf, basketball and baseball

 

Known as “Hersti” or “Guido,” Jim was a member of Osiris Country Club where he could be found more often than home when his kids tried to find him if the weather was remotely golf-friendly

 

Friends and family may call at Coloni Funeral Home, Route 9W South, New Windsor on Sunday, December 17, 2006 from 2-8 p.m., where a funeral service will be held at 11 a.m. on Monday, December 18, 2006

 

Interment will follow at Cedar Hill Cemetery in Middlehope.

 

Memorial contributions may be made to the Jim Taravella Memorial Scholarship Fund, c/o Scott Kendrik, Merrill Lynch, 50 Chestnut Ridge Road, Montvale, NJ 07645.

Counterparty Risk and the Subprime Fiasco

about stocks: BSC / C / GS / JPM / MER / WB

 

*** begin quote ***

 

Imagine walking down the street and finding a $100 bill. Wow, you say, this must be my lucky day. To take advantage of this good fortune you decide to go to the race track. After reading the racing sheet you place a bet in the 3rd race on the long shot ‘Never Wins’. ‘Never Wins’ has finished last in every race that he has run. Also in the race is the favorite, ‘Always Wins’. ‘Always Wins’ has finished in first place in every race that he has run. You still go ahead and make the bet because you strongly believe that today ‘Never Wins’ will win. The bet is made for $100 and the odds are 100 - 1, if he wins your payoff will be $10,000.

 

It turns out that on this day a number of other bettors feel the same way as you and they place the same identical $100 bet that you did. The track executives while monitoring the incoming bets notice the large size of ‘Never Wins’ bets but they do not change the odds as they are so confident that history is on their side. After all ‘Never Wins’ never wins and ‘Always Wins’ always wins.

[JR: Now, I’ve been on Wall Street and I have never read a better simple explanation of what counter party risk is. I wonder if Manhattan College had something to do with the selection of the “race track” metaphor.

In talking to my brother tonight we were wondering what you meant by the Good-bye at the end of this weeks edition. I assured him that it was not true that you were signing off for good, but just changing format. We both enjoyed that last bit each week. Where will we find it now?
