Subject: jcc good morning . i apologize for the response delay . i ' ve gone back through the analysis that i did back in april , and have thrown around some ideas with vince and stinson . the issue may be summarized as follows . the hedge relationship was derived using jcc and prompt brent , and is valid for jcc and prompt brent . no problems here . however , it will not be valid for points far out on the forward curve . intuitively , this hedge relationship will approach one as we move far out on the curve , but since there is no data , i can not statistically determine this . one can imagine a term structure of heding ratios that start at 0 . 67 and move to 1 . 0 , so that the back end of the curves would move together , but how fast it converges to one is anyone ' s guess . if there is a way of determining the historical jcc forward curve , then the hedge relationships may be estimated . however , i have been unable to determine a rigorous approach to building the jcc curve . i can explain this far better in person , and would like to talk as soon as possible at your convenience . - kevin kindall | 0 |

Subject: re : interview steve , i submitted my evaluation . general impression was rather negative : he seems to be a consultant type person who speaks about everything with confidence but is short on depth and technical details . he is personable , outspoken , organized - on the positive side . also , the red flag is that he jumps from job to job : typical after 18 - 24 months when any organization can ascertain his usefulness . vince from : stephen stock / enron @ enronxgate on 04 / 17 / 2001 01 : 03 pm to : vince j kaminski / hou / ect @ ect cc : subject : interview hi vince , what did you think of david hsu ? my thoughts . overall a good guy . personable . intelligent . he could communicate reasonably well , but seemed to be capable of losing objectivity in favour of technical advancement . he didn ' t seem comfortable with taking a man - management role ( at least he didn ' t want to be an ' administrator ' ) he appeared to know a lot about risk . ( in fact jay web called me to say he felt david was one of the better risk guys he had seen but also commented that he needed to be coupled with a project manager to be successfull ) . regards steve | 0 |
Subject: you are now subscribed to the frbnyrmagl list mon , 18 sep 2000 18 : 42 : 47 your subscription to the frbnyrmagl list ( federal reserve bank of ny research publications ) has been accepted . please save this message for future reference , especially if this is the first time you are subscribing to an electronic mailing list . if you ever need to leave the list , you will find the necessary instructions below . perhaps more importantly , saving a copy of this message ( and of all future subscription notices from other mailing lists ) in a special mail folder will give you instant access to the list of mailing lists that you are subscribed to . this may prove very useful the next time you go on vacation and need to leave the lists temporarily so as not to fill up your mailbox while you are away ! you should also save the " welcome messages " from the list owners that you will occasionally receive after subscribing to a new list . to send a message to all the people currently subscribed to the list , just send mail to frbnyrmagl @ peach . ease . lsoft . com . this is called " sending mail to the list , " because you send mail to a single address and listserv makes copies for all the people who have subscribed . this address ( frbnyrmagl @ peach . ease . lsoft . com ) is also called the " list address . " you must never try to send any command to that address , as it would be distributed to all the people who have subscribed . all commands must be sent to the " listserv address , " listserv @ peach . ease . lsoft . com . it is very important to understand the difference between the two , but fortunately it is not complicated . the listserv address is like a fax number that connects you to a machine , whereas the list address is like a normal voice line connecting you to a person . if you make a mistake and dial the fax number when you wanted to talk to someone on the phone , you will quickly realize that you used the wrong number and call again . no harm will have been done . if on the other hand you accidentally make your fax call someone ' s voice line , the person receiving the call will be inconvenienced , especially if your fax then re - dials every 5 minutes . the fact that most people will eventually connect the fax machine to the voice line to allow the fax to go through and make the calls stop does not mean that you should continue to send faxes to the voice number . people would just get mad at you . it works pretty much the same way with mailing lists , with the difference that you are calling hundreds or thousands of people at the same time , and consequently you can expect a lot of people to get upset if you consistently send commands to the list address . you may leave the list at any time by sending a " signoff frbnyrmagl " command to listserv @ peach . ease . lsoft . com . you can also tell listserv how you want it to confirm the receipt of messages you send to the list . if you do not trust the system , send a " set frbnyrmagl repro " command and listserv will send you a copy of your own messages , so that you can see that the message was distributed and did not get damaged on the way . after a while you may find that this is getting annoying , especially if your mail program does not tell you that the message is from you when it informs you that new mail has arrived from frbnyrmagl . if you send a " set frbnyrmagl ack norepro " command , listserv will mail you a short acknowledgement instead , which will look different in your mailbox directory . with most mail programs you will know immediately that this is an acknowledgement you can read later . finally , you can turn off acknowledgements completely with " set frbnyrmagl noack norepro " . contributions sent to this list are automatically archived . you can get a list of the available archive files by sending an " index frbnyrmagl " command to listserv @ peach . ease . lsoft . com . you can then order these files with a " get frbnyrmagl logxxxx " command , or using listserv ' s database search facilities . send an " info database " command for more information on the latter . important : this list is confidential . you should not publicly mention its existence , or forward copies of information you have obtained from it to third parties . please note that the " give " command is automatically disabled for all archive files . more information on listserv commands can be found in the listserv reference card , which you can retrieve by sending an " info refcard " command to listserv @ peach . ease . lsoft . com . | 0 |

( this is why increment heat rates must be strictly increasing in this model . ) results for the capacity increments , however , are not available as output ; only each plant ' s aggregate values are reported . i had to construct the stack for a particular hour to answer question about a homer city , ny plant we were studying a few years ago . attached is the sql query you can import into ms access to do the same thing for you ( making appropriate modifications to the year , hour , etc . ) unfortunately , no henwood documentation on the output variables existed when i created this query , so i can not really tell you what they represent anymore . an acquaintance of mine at entergy and i were lobbying to get henwood to provide some documentation , so it may be available now . let ' s talk and maybe we can help you out , michael > > > karolina potter / lon / ect @ enron 08 / 24 / 00 07 : 08 am > > > michael , i am an analyst in paul mead ' s continental power trading group in london . i am currently working on the project , which requires the use of emss , and experience some difficulties interpreting the output results . steven leppard from our research group gave me your name as an expert in this system and consequently the person to contact in case of problems . i have been running simulations for the dutch market and was asked to provide the traders with some front - end screen graphs in order to interpret the numerical results . one of the graphs is to show an hourly generation stack and system ' s marginal cost , as we only run cost based scenarios . to sort each station ' s hourly generation i need its marginal cost . to my knowledge though , marginal cost is only generated for a systems marginal unit ( transarea marginal units query , marg _ cost unit ) . therefore i was sorting the stations according to the cost which i calculated based on the outputs from station detail by hour query . the calculation was as follows : for each hour , for each generating station : " marginal cost " [ o / mwh ] = ( generation _ cost [ oo 00 ] * 1000 ) / generation [ mwh ] - vom _ cost [ o / mwh ] this i thought would include fuel cost and start up costs . however , a marginal station which i get on the stack as a result of the above calculation is not a station given in marginal station field in transarea marginal units query . i have also looked into transarea _ data _ hr table and transarea _ data table but non of the costs there match my results . do you happen to know what formula is used to determine marg _ cost and which outputs i should be using to obtain the right results ? it might be easier if we could discuss this issue on the phone . in this case could you please send me your direct telephone number . i am struggling understanding what is going on and would appreciate your help very much . regards karolina - text . htm - stack generator sql . txt | 0 |

Subject: henwood stuff and thoughts about valuation did you guys get this ? i was too interested in the conversation to interrupt with comments about risk / return if the decision would be covered in rates , it is the customers ' curves or equivalently the puc ' s curve . i think if i were going to approach valuation in commodities where the assumptions of black / scholes do not apply , i would start with the capm for large industries in an area , use pro formas to translate this to utility curves for the input commodities , and add the utility curves . another issue : the factor that explains why enron is lowest bidder is its role in the market . in the 1930 s , keynes argued that if most market participants with long position were hedgers , futures prices would be higher than spot ; if they were speculators or traders , future prices would be lower than spot . traders must be compensated for holding the risk ; hedgers ( including utilities and consumers ) are willing to pay a premium for the certainty . consequently , enron traders have bigger bid / ask spreads and lower bid prices . just some random thoughts , michael - - - - - original message - - - - - date : 01 / 04 / 2001 10 : 41 am ( thursday ) from : " heather mason " to : hq 3 . em 5 ( michael schilmoeller ) mark your calendar - tuesday january 23 , 2001 downtown houston hyatt hotel henwood will be hosting a comprehensive ercot symposium on tuesday , january 23 , 2001 . a team of henwood regional power market specialists will be presenting the latest analysis and information to assist you in preparing for the new ercot restructured power market , in addition to an anlysis of the issues now playing out in the wscc markets . coffee and registration will begin at 9 : 30 am and the program will run until 3 : 00 pm . lunch and snacks will be provided . agenda topics include : * what will be the critical - success factors for qualified scheduling entities operating in ercot ' s new wholesale & retail markets ? * how will market restructuring impact mid to long - term wholesale prices ? * what is the outlook for new generation ? * what are the impacts of upcoming emission regulations on ercot ' s generation resources ? * what are the new analytical tools available to capture market uncertainty impacts to your supply contracts and generation assets ? * what are the restructuring lessons learned from the california experience and the implications to ercot ? in conjunction with this program , henwood will have a demonstration room available to present its latest software applications and e - business solutions . a nominal $ 75 registration fee is required to reserve a space in the workshop . for more information or to reserve your spot , please contact heather mason at henwood : hmason @ hesinet . com or 916 / 569 - 0985 . about henwood : henwood offers integrated business solutions , strategic consulting , and innovative e - business applications to meet the challenges of the restructured energy markets throughout north america , australia , and europe , serving clients that include eight of the ten top utilities in north america , in addition to energy services providers and power marketers . | 0 |

Subject: linux - - hit or miss ? network world fusion focus : phil hochmuth on linux today ' s focus : will linux be a hit or miss on the corporate desktop ? 03 / 15 / 00 dear wincenty kaminski , today ' s focus : will linux be a hit or miss on the corporate desktop ? by phil hochmuth so far this year , the buzz about linux in enterprise networks has focused on servers and embedded systems , with the growth of linux severs being most heralded . according to idc , a research firm based in framingham , mass . , linux was the fastest - growing server operating system last year , with a 93 % growth rate over the year before . linux was the second most - shipped operating system in 1999 after windows nt , capturing 24 % of new licenses shipped . as for the embedded market , linux has emerged as an ideal platform for network appliances , because the system can be modified to handle specialized , dedicated tasks very well . companies such as cobalt networks , picazo and progressive systems have announced linux - based appliances , ranging from web servers to pbxs to firewalls . but what of the open source hacker , s dream of & linux on every desktop ? 8 sure , linux on the desktop has become more accessible than ever , with colorful , shrink - wrapped boxes of caldera , red hat and corel linux now available at places like compusa . however , analysts have said that linux , s growth in the enterprise will be limited to the macro and micro areas of network servers and embedded operating systems . according to idc , linux currently runs on only 4 % of u . s . desktops . the hold microsoft windows has on the desktop market will remain strong , analysts say , despite such factors as microsoft , s antitrust problems and the surging popularity of linux . even some linux executives are skeptical of their product , s desktop future . recently , suse ceo roland dyroff downplayed linux , s future on desktops . dyroff said , & given the lack of applications available , we really can ' t claim it as being competitive on the desktop yet . 8 a recent survey by survey . com gives more hope for linux desktops . according to the survey of 1 , 640 enterprise network managers , open source operating systems are used on 10 % of desktops , with the number jumping to a surprising 23 % of enterprise desktops by 2002 . despite the mix of numbers being thrown around , two important factors that will determine the success of linux as an enterprise client desktop are : a standardized , easy - to - use graphical user interface ( gui ) and available applications . one company that is working to make linux more user friendly is palo alto - based eazel , which is designing a next - generation file management system and user interface to run on top of the linux kernel . according to eazel , s web site , the company , s goal is to bring linux to the masses and & do it in a way that appeals to today ' s linux users and to mere mortals . 8 the company was founded by a group of former apple executives , and is allied with the gnome project , which has been doing extensive linux desktop environment development for several years . eazel is due to have a product out by the middle of this year . with an intuitive , icon - based file management environment , eazel is hoping its user interface will be an improvement over the two current linux guis , gnome and kde , and will help standardized the look and feel of linux for & regular 8 users . for enterprise mangers who have already embraced linux on the server side , this development will be worth keeping an eye on . on the applications side , several office productivity suites have been available for some time , such as sun , s staroffice suite and koffice for the kde desktop . corel has also ported its office products , such as wordperfect , over to linux to complement its own distribution of the operating system . while there have been recent rumors ( started by linux care vice president arthur tyde ) that microsoft is working on a port of ms office to linux , microsoft officials deny this . while linux may never supplant windows as the industry - standard desktop , there should be plenty of opportunity for linux pcs in enterprise nets in the future . to contact phil hochmuth : - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - phil hochmuth is a writer and researcher for network world , and a former systems integrator . you can reach him at mailto : phochmut @ nww . com . for related links - - click here for network world ' s home page : http : / / www . nwfusion . com staroffice software from sun http : / / www . sun . com / staroffice corel linux os http : / / www . corel . com / freedom / freedom . htm eazel http : / / www . eazel . com gnome - - the gnu network object model environment http : / / www . gnome . org koffice - - the integrated office suite for kde , the k desktop environment http : / / koffice . kde . org / cobalt networks , inc . http : / / www . cobaltnetworks . com progressive systems http : / / www . progressive - systems . com picazo http : / / www . picazo . com other linux - related articles from network world : active directory upgrade requires strong game plan , network world , 03 / 13 / 00 subscription services to subscribe or unsubscribe to any network world e - mail newsletters , go to : to change your email address , go to : subscription questions ?

Subject: security question dear guys having been out of the office for a couple of days , i ' ve found myself the victim of theft ( again ) . this time my desk drawer key has been stolen from its " hiding place " under my telephone . i * always * lock my drawers and keep the key in the same place , but on arriving in the office today i found the drawers unlocked , and the key missing . although there ' s nothing sensitive on or around my desk , i ' m concerned about the security implications of someone sniffing around the office in this manner . i also found the papers on my desk extensively reshuffled last week . last year , in our old office , i had my only two real options books stolen from among the many and varied books on my desk . that couldn ' t have been a random theft , and i fear this isn ' t either . i can ' t understand who ' d be so interested in a research guy ' s belongings ! can we ask security to check their surveillance footage for any suspicious activity around my desk ? cheers , steve | 0 |

Subject: re : working gas price model vince - i have a simplified version of brad ' s model in mind . the " no arbitrage " condition equates trading margins across the country . costs of transmission rise with congestion on the network . wellhead supply is almost completely price - elastic , while burner - tip demand is almost completely price inelastic . storage is rationalized as a perpetual call option . the least time - variant parameters are the costs of injecting and withdrawing gas from storage to the pipeline , followed by the costs of delivering gas from the wellhead to the pipeline . the intermediate - variant parameters are the capacity - dependent costs paid to the pipeline ( above shrinkage ) for transmission . the most time - variant parameters are the trading margins and the valuations of the storage option . there are 8 parameters to be estimated at each major node of the betwork . they are identifiable in either of two straightforward ways : using a short time series of the last 3 days prices based on the assumed variability mentioned above , or point - estimates ( " calibrations " ) using only today ' s data based on a node - based model of competition between pipelines where pipes with the same region of origination , albeit markedly different terminus , price versus capacity similarly , " competing " for outflows . i will write this up for you in scientific word and present it to you at your earliest convenience . clayton | 0 |
