The New York Stock Exchange is on life support as increase get creamed by plummeting trade volume — accurately two years after the electronic Flash Crash sent the storied outlet into a near-death spiral.

Trading executives fear the time is finally ticking for the city’s most famous financial landmark — the workplace for 1,200 building traders who’ve weathered a heartless decade-long decimation in their ranks.

“I’m 100 percent blissful we am no longer on the floor,” late NYSE attorney Paul Olsen told The Post. “I don’t know what’s going to occur next. we think the floor’s time is really limited.”

“It is amazing, just amazing,” combined Olsen, recalling his new sentimental lapse revisit to the floor. “All these brokers for the big firms are still using around like crazy before the opening, and then they lay down all day — they don’t do anything.”

And it’s only removing worse.

NYSE pronounced this week sum US money trade averaged 1.8 billion shares daily, a pointy 23 percent decrease from last year and 16 percent from the prior quarter.

The NYSE’s primogenitor is tellurian sell user NYSE Euronext. It was shamed by European regulators in Feb when they blocked it from merging with Germany’s Deutsche Boerse. NYSE Euronext says the first-quarter increase plunged 44 percent.

The Big Board, meanwhile, seems incompetent to shake off the slow fallout from the Flash Crash of May 6, 2010. On that memorable day in trade history, the Dow Jones fell a gut-wrenching 1,000 points, or 9 percent, within minutes, only to redeem belligerent just as quickly.

Nothing has since been the same behind the ancient marble masquerade of the NYSE at 8 Broad St. Critics point accusing fingers at high-frequency traders for much of the exchange’s troubles today. These high-speed professionals comment for a immeasurable pool of batch trade on the NYSE.

It’s presumably as much as 70 percent in some particular stocks. But many of these superfast traders — underneath regulatory and open inspection for their purpose in the Flash Crash and trade strategies generally — have scaled back as sell investors repel from equity investing.

That has serve dragged down NYSE batch trade volume. There’s also not enough marketplace “volatility” to move the quick traders back into the market. In additional of $250 billion in long-term equity supports have left the markets since May 6, 2010, according to Themis Trading. That’s notwithstanding an uptick in the economy and a batch marketplace that has almost doubled since the 2009 lows. “It isn’t that these investors don’t have certainty in the economy,” according to Sal Armuk, a partner at Themis, a big doubter of high-frequency traders. “They don’t have certainty in our markets.”

But Duncan Niederauer, arch executive of NYSE Euronext, pronounced some high-frequency players might be exiting the more regulated US markets for more welcoming marketplaces.

In the heyday, the NYSE dominated trade in the possess stocks, with a scarcely 90 percent marketplace share in 1980. Today, the marketplace share is around 25 percent. At the apex of the success, the building employed 3,000 traders. Nearly 2,000 of them are now gone.

Last Jun 25, the night happy matrimony became law in New York state, City Council Speaker Christine Quinn gave an romantic debate about finally being means to marry her partner of 10 years — a impulse she suspicion would never come.

For the early Democratic front-runner in the mayoral race, who’s heading polls by 20 points, her long-awaited May 19 matrimony to Kim Catullo could have been the ideal campaign-publicity fodder.

Quinn toyed with the thought of milking the impulse for limit domestic value — commendatory the hundreds of talk requests that poured in, posing for cinema removing propitious for her matrimony dress, and apropos the print integrate for happy matrimony in New York.

But it was in esteem to her bashful partner, a working-class Jersey lady incited corporate lawyer, that she chose to keep the rite a private, personal affair, sources said. The end outcome is a matrimony that will simulate Catullo’s roots more than Quinn’s domestic future.

Catullo, 45, the daughter of two bureau workers from Newark, might be the city’s first initial lady to travel down the aisle in a pants suit.

“I would design to see Kim Catullo in a operative tuxedo for women,” pronounced Sarah Palin’s former stylist, Lisa A. Kline. “Still in pants but intensely superb and appropriate.”

The cake will be designed by Catullo’s freshman-year roommate at Rutgers University, baker Lisa Porada of Chocolate Carousel Bakery in Wall, NJ.

“It’s a five-tiered cake, and they’re carrying chocolate chip layers with chocolate custard and chocolate butter cream,” Porada told The Post. “Kim and Chris chose the flavors.”

Porada’s daughter, Olivia, 18, will sing in front of guest that will embody Mayor Bloomberg, Gov. Cuomo and Sens. Charles Schumer and Kirsten Gillibrand. And Catullo’s best crony from Seton Hall Law School, Marielle Dugan, has been tapped to perform a reading at the ceremony.

Friends report Catullo as the more critical and soft-spoken foil to Quinn’s boisterous personality. She is an zealous reader — in contrariety to Quinn’s welfare for vegging in front of the TV.

Catullo grew up the youngest of 5 kids. She graduated from Mount St. Dominic HS two years behind Whitney Houston, whom she would pass in the propagandize halls.

Her mother, who died of ovarian cancer when she was 17, worked on an public line at Harrison Seal Electronics, creation aeroplane engine parts. Like Quinn, whose mom died when she was 16, Catullo was lifted by a singular World War II veteran. Catullo’s father worked for the Pabst Blue Ribbon brewery in Orange, NJ. Quinn’s father worked as a kinship electrical engineer.

Catullo always wanted to be a lawyer, and being happy was never an temperament she struggled with, according to friends.

“I don’t remember anything central in terms of Kim entrance out,” removed Porada. “That was just always there. It was never an issue.” Quinn, in contrast, has described her entrance out at age 25 at the “end of a long process.”

In 2001, Catullo was 34, single, and operative as a product-liability counsel at the white-shoe organisation Gibbons in Manhattan, where she still works today.

It was 3 days after 9/11 when a co-worker brought her out for a couple’s cooking at Food Bar in Chelsea, a now-shuttered happy hangout. Her co-worker was dating lobbyist Emily Giske, and they set her up with then-Councilwoman Christine Quinn.

“For Kim, carrying someone to share her life with, that was always something she was looking for,” pronounced Porada. “I remember conference about Chris very early on after that date.” It was pretty evident that the two became a critical item.”

The integrate now spends weekends barbecuing at their New Jersey beach house, with Catullo’s 4 nephews and niece. Catullo has also incited Quinn, a Long Island girl, into a hard-core Bruce Springsteen fan.

“Kim and we betrothed each other years ago that if one got a ticket, we’d always go see Bruce Springsteen together,” pronounced Dugan. “[Quinn] is now the third circle at our concerts.”

As for Catullo’s domestic future, friends pronounced she’ll continue to play her purpose of a decade as the vigour heats up on Quinn.

“Her career is critical to her and I’m sure she will pursue her possess goals,” pronounced Dugan. “But she’ll assistance keep Chris grounded and keep viewpoint there.”

The developer of a due 190-acre Hixson devise pronounced it would move hundreds of residents and thousands of shoppers to the northern boundary of Chattanooga.

But some city leaders are heedful about adding more foe for existent retailers.

Councilwoman Pam Ladd represents Hixson and is disturbed the expansion could harm determined businesses such as Northgate Mall, which sits fewer than 4 miles south of the due site.

"We don't want them competing with each other. We want Northgate to be rarely successful," she said. "We don't want to give them competition."

But Duane Horton, boss of Scenic Land Co., pronounced his devise meets scarcely all of the goals the village set out in the Hixson North River Community Plan. That devise calls for strong blurb development, which the devise says will "feed new life into suburban strips."

"The best disciple we have is the devise that was put together by the village itself," Horton said.

The Chattanooga City Council is scheduled to opinion Tuesday either to greenlight the project. City planners endorsed last month the devise be shot down.

On Saturday, opponents of the due devise collected at the Greenway Farm to collect signatures on a petition to benefaction to the legislature on Tuesday.

Business owners from the due expansion site at the intersection of Highway 153 and U.S. Highway 27 down to Northgate Mall are uncertain what to think of the project. The recently grown piazza with Academy Sports and Kohl's has dull land just watchful to be developed, but retailers looking to build are scarce.

That leaves Oscar Brock, the property's manager, struggling with either to hearten the devise or conflict it.

"Growth creates growth. It's a just cycle, and that's good," he said. "At the same time, we're mid-cycle. We're in the core of perplexing to fill up our selling center."

Brock isn't alone. On Highway 153, the selling core anchored by Walmart has 46,000 block feet of new space, the Target-anchored core has 4,000 block feet of dull stores, and Northgate Mall has scarcely a entertain of the space empty.

The Chattanooga City Council is slated to confirm either the land indispensable for a due 190-acre expansion will be rezoned to accommodate the residential, bureau and sell devise tonight at 6 p.m. City planners endorsed opposite the rezoning last month.

Anyone with comments on the due 190-acre mixed-use expansion nearby the intersections of Highways 153 and 27 might email 153@sceniclandcompany.com.

Clint Wolford, clamp boss of Wolford Development, is struggling to find retailers to fill several thousand empty block feet in both the Target- and Walmart-anchored plazas. He pronounced the due expansion would be good for the area if it were thriving, but now is not the time for such a large-scale development.

"It's not needed. Not now, not in this economy," he said. "I can't know who in the universe they could presumably franchise to that's not being talked to by the other developers."

But Horton's devise isn't all speculative, and it isn't all retail. More than half the devise would be dedicated to apartments, offices and open spaces. He pronounced he has two letters of vigilant and even more seductiveness from skill managers to rise 240 apartments, and he has listened copiousness of seductiveness from companies looking for a vast bureau campus in the area.

The devise hasn't perceived financing, but Horton pronounced it's on the right lane to do so tentative city approval.

"We don't see any emanate going forward," he said.

Horton expects sell will be phased in last, with only preference retailers such as a grocer going into the site in the beginning.

Keith Weaver owns the primary caring use Compassion Health Care nearby the expansion site. He saw his customer bottom triple after the Academy Sports non-stop up down the road, and hopes he'd see a identical studious boost if Horton's site is developed.

On the flip side, he's disturbed the thousands of additional cars on the highway will deter patients from creation the outing to his bureau if the devise goes through.

"It's going to change a outrageous aspect of where we live," he said. "Our day-to-day life is going to be different."

RIVERTON — For Riverton Middle School seventh-graders, using record to tackle a plan on healthy disasters made the disproportion between being confirmed in a nine-week routine or one that could have taken longer.

“It took us about 9 weeks to do this. It would have taken longer than that just to do it all by hand,” pronounced Victoria Kolanowski, 13, a seventh-grader at the school.

“Technology really helped out.”

Kolanowski and Kayla Zumwalt, 13, demonstrated the seventh-grade plan “Natural Disasters Around the World” during TECH 2012 Students for the Information Age on Wednesday at the state Capitol.

Applied learning

Riverton Middle School was among 70 schools statewide comparison to attend in the annual eventuality that raises recognition of the purpose record plays in scheming students to attain in today’s universe and to uncover the need for increasing appropriation for classroom technology.

Thanks to the propagandize district being awarded a extend last fall, each Riverton Middle School tyro in third through eighth grades perceived a mini HP laptop. The school’s 110 to 115 seventh-graders divided into about 20 groups to tackle the project.

“They worked in mild groups and looked at healthy disasters in ubiquitous and did some investigate on those,” pronounced Jenny Mendenhall, seventh-grade denunciation humanities teacher, who along with Drew Kays, a sixth-grade clergyman and record coach, participated in Wednesday’s demonstration.

“Then they looked at a specific healthy disaster around the universe and had to investigate that even serve and take what they schooled from that to request it and benefaction a newscast.”

Riverton Middle School seventh-graders researched tsunamis in ubiquitous and the Sumartra 2004 tsunami specifically. They researched the effects on people, preparation, economy, ecology, sourroundings and resources to answer the question: “What is the attribute between healthy disasters around the world, and how can we make a difference?”

“How it affects not just that one nation that was affected, but how it influenced adjacent countries that wanted to help,” Victoria Kolanowski said.

Tech promotion

Kayla Zumwalt pronounced students used record “a ton” with the healthy disasters project, using Google and wiki spaces daily.

Recently, students worked on a plan with Movie Maker, a video creating/editing program application.

“We had to write 10 communication pieces, and then, with the Movie Maker, we have to get cinema for those and emanate slides and recount them, and then put that into a movie,” Zumwalt said.

Riverton Middle School’s impasse in TECH 2012 was directed at perplexing “to get our voice out there about how critical record is in our schools now and what kind of impact it’s going to have on their education,” Mendenhall said.

“To try to foster appropriation so there aren’t cuts so that we can continue using record and adding to our schools to yield it for our students.”

Participants

Area schools comparison for appearance in TECH 2012:

*Springfield: Black Hawk Elementary School, “Instructional Technology—One to One iPads in the Classroom.”

*Riverton: Riverton Middle School, “An In-Depth Look at Natural Disasters Around the World.”

*Jacksonville: Illinois School for the Deaf, “Bilingual Communication Using iPads.”

It’s awards deteriorate in the grill universe — with all the Champagne-fueled celebrations and grumbling that go with it. Tomorrow night, the culinary chosen will group to the James Beard Foundation Awards at Lincoln Center. And last week, the 10th annual World’s 50 Best Restaurants list was announced in London.

The world’s best? That would be Copenhagen’s Noma, for the third year true — and the reason because “New Nordic” cuisine and “foraging” have turn such foodie hum difference of late.

Five NYC restaurants made the list orderly by Britain’s Restaurant Magazine, which is formed on the polling of 837 attention panelists including chefs and critics. (The US, with a sum of 8 restaurants on the list, had the strongest display of any country.)

Leading the New York container at No. 6 was Thomas Keller’s lush Per Se in the Time Warner Center, which has surpassed his Napa restaurant, the French Laundry, in new years. Keller was also respected with a Lifetime Achievement Award — a first for a US chef.

But arguably the biggest win was by Eleven Madison Park — Daniel Humm and Will Guidara’s cutting-edge fine-dining church — which jumped to No. 10 after debuting on the list in 2010 at No. 50.

“We’re thrilled,” says Guidara, who trafficked to London with Humm to attend the awards on Monday evening. “We’ve had two pretty big jumps — from No. 50 to No. 24 [in 2011] and [now] from No. 24 to No. 10. We’ve been operative really hard here over the last integrate of years.”

Other New York winners enclosed Eric Ripert’s Le Bernardin (No. 19), Daniel Boulud’s flagship Daniel (No. 25) and David Chang’s Momofuku Ssäm Bar (No. 37) — the only casual, no-reservations NYC grill to hoard a desired container (it also bested the more upscale sister Ko).

“The list, and generally the grill that’s on the tip of that list, has really had an impact via the whole industry,” says Guidara. “Look at [Spain’s now shuttered] El Bulli being on top, and how molecular gastronomy proliferated via the world. And then Noma took the tip [slot and] the foraging transformation has turn huge.

“I also think that the restaurants that really attain on that list are restaurants that are building a unaccompanied and unaccompanied point of view. we think it’s a list that rewards expansion and innovation.”

He’s right: In late 2010 at Eleven Madison Park, he and Humm introduced a argumentative and radical new menu format — a minimalist grid inventory just 16 mixture — meant to hint discourse between diners and staff. It’s a risk that’s been rewarded by their general peers.

The Upper East Side’s Daniel fell 14 spots to No. 25, from No. 11 — maybe reflecting a generational shift.

Besides the US, the only other nation with 3 Top 10 rankings was Spain, with the gastronomically brave El Celler de Can Roca, Mugaritz and Arzak; France, meanwhile, had none. Mon dieu!
