Busy Season Zen: The Swish Montage

Posted on by Caleb Newquist

March Madness begins this week, so it seems appropriate that today's BSZ have a basketball theme. 

Although I'm not much of a basketball fan these days, I do enjoy the sound a ball makes when it goes through hoop in a perfect swish. Luckily, there I found a 2-minute montage of perfect (and some not so perfect) swishes for your viewing pleasure.  

Could've used a few more chain nets for my liking, but it works. 

Don't worry, if you prefer your basketball cute and cuddly, you can always revisit the guinea pigs playing hoops from a couple weeks back.

FASB to Make Heads or Tails of Repurchase Accounting Soon Enough

Back in April when he was testifying before the House Financial Services Committee, FASB Chairman Bob Herz couldn’t really say one way or another what he thought about the repurchase accounting that Lehman Brothers was using.

At the time, Herz just said that FASB would work diligently with the SEC (no porn allowed), that Lehman skirted the disclosure rules and that they were going to get to the bottom of this, come hell or Barney Frank’s shrewd disposition.


In a recent meeting with his fellow double-entry wizards in Norwalk, Herz said that he was opening up ‘a very targeted scope project’ that will get to the bottom of this pile:

“Once we’re made aware that people are trying to structure around specific provisions in the accounting literature, it makes you think about whether those provisions need to be looked at,” he told the board. “We’ve asked the staff to take a look at that and come back with some recommendations in the pretty near term,” he said.
