For the second time this season the celebrities' rolodexes are put to the test, and both teams feel the heat as they try to get big sales lined up on short notice. Celebrities on one team have trouble getting friends to pony up money for charity, while some on the other team have trouble just getting out of bed. The fundraising goes down to the wire, putting one team over the top and the other team into the boardroom, where Trump fires another celebrity.

As far as I know, Nauticam does not have a plan for a flat wide port, but, one nice thing is that with the range of port adapters we have, you can use one of the existing flat ports (i.e. S&S, Seatool) that might work. Right now none of the 17-70's are on our port charts... which one are you planning on using? What diopter are you planning to use? Are you set on using this in a flat port - would you consider a dome?
This one
I was hoping to use this lens as a substitute for both my Canon 60mm Macro and my Canon 18-55, but I do own and want to use a Subsee 10X with the sigma, so a dome port is not going to work.

Willscheidt credits her mother, Danette Johnson, with first getting her interested in volunteer work.
"My mom started the [Moab] Free Health Clinic," Willscheidt said. "She got me involved in the community."
When the clinic opened in 2008, Willscheidt helped out as much as she could at her young age. "I just did little stuff like cutting up prescription pads and making posters. Things a kid could do," she said.
But the experience encouraged her to seek out other volunteer options, and as she got older, she started to branch out.
"I help out whenever something comes up that I can do," she said.
Over the past few years her volunteer efforts have included donating time as a lifeguard at the Grand County Public Library's Cardboard Boat Race, reading stories in German to children at the library's story time, helping with arts and crafts tents and a wide variety of other activities.
Willscheidt recently completed a two-year term as a student board member to WabiSabi, a local nonprofit thrift store.
"I was nominated by [former WabiSabi director] Jeff Cohen to be on that board," she said. "It was really great. I was on a lot of subcommittees. I made a lot of choices that I feel are important to the community, and I like that. Just being able to make little changes."
Melony Gilles, WabiSabi's current executive director, said student board members serve in a similar manner to regular board members.
"The only difference is they don't vote on financial decisions," she said.
Gilles said student board member positions are becoming a national trend, especially within nonprofits.
"Not only does it give them exposure to how nonprofits work, but it's training people to be in community leadership positions," Gilles said. "It's important to have a youth perspective ... Obviously [Robin] was very valuable to us."
WabiSabi board president Christy Calvin said while most of their student board members are great assets, they can be hard to recruit. "
Robin had already been volunteering for our stores for a couple of years," Calvin said. "She was very motivated and very enthusiastic."
Calvin said Willscheidt's young age made her dedication to her volunteer projects even more impressive.
"We got lots of good insights from her perspective as a student and her work at the stores," she said, adding that Willscheidt even drafted plans for a larger store for WabiSabi, as well as designing a logo in her classes at GCHS.
"She's always doing stuff for us," Calvin said. "She's a great participant."
Even though Willscheidt has finished her term with WabiSabi, she says she is looking for the next opportunity to do something similar. "
I really enjoyed being at the meetings and meeting with other people who take my ideas ... and we can expand on them," she said. "So I'm looking for a new student board position."
Once a month, Willscheidt also hosts a two-hour radio show on KZMU.
"That's a lot of fun," she said.
In addition, she helps the radio station during its radio-thon fundraisers in the spring and fall.
Willscheidt began her junior year at GCHS this fall and she's already looking to the future. She said she has considered careers in architecture as well as foreign languages. For now, she's keeping her options open.
"Everything is open for me right now. I really like to be into a little bit of everything," she said. "I am only 15. I can only do so much."
Willscheidt may only have a couple of years left before she graduates high school but she says she will continue looking for more volunteer opportunities here.
"I'd like to get involved with the [Moab Valley Multicultural Center] a little more," she said. "There's a lot of stuff going on, and it's all good."

The great thing about this clay Menorah, is that the kids get to make it literally from scratch.
Here's the clay recipe:
3 cups flour
1 cup salt
1 cup water (plus a little extra if needed)
Mix all the ingredients together until it forms a nice smooth dough. I found that we needed to add some water along the way to get the smooth doughy consistency. The recipe said you can add food coloring but I found it just stained the kids hands when handling the dough which was not too exciting.
Preheat oven to 275.
Once we had our dough, we made a base for the menorah, made 8 round balls and used actual Chanukah candles to form little holes to put the candles in. Make sure to make the holes a bit bigger then the size of the candle, as it shrinks a drop in the oven. Use water to "glue" the holders to the base and the shamash.
Place menorah in the oven on wax paper for 1 hour.
After an hour, take it out and let it dry completely, then paint with acrylic paints. As you can see, ours turned into a finger painting session:)
Here's the finished product:
We then did dreidle sorting into the different colors with the little ones- I have a printable of colored dreidels here, feel free to use it-
This is what we did:

World Humanitarian Day: An international day to celebrate the humanitarian spiritAug 19, 2013
New York — Today marks the tenth anniversary of the bombing of the United Nations Headquarters in Baghdad, Iraq, an attack that claimed the lives of 22 UN and aid agency staff including the Secretary-General's Special Representative to Iraq, Sérgio Vieira de Mello.
"Today is a day of mixed emotions for everyone involved in humanitarian work," said Valerie Amos, the United Nations Humanitarian Chief who is attending World Humanitarian Day events in Brazil. "We remember those we lost in Baghdad and we remember all aid workers who have lost their lives. But in their memory, we also celebrate the humanitarian spirit."
Events are being held in more than 50 cities around the world to celebrate World Humanitarian Day. In New York, families of those killed in the Iraq bombing will attend an event hosted by UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon, and in Rio de Janeiro, the Government of Brazil has arranged a series of events to celebrate Sérgio Vieira de Mello's legacy.
Elsewhere, events include an academic debate in Colombia, the awarding of an humanitarian prize in Madagascar, the hosting of fairs and photo exhibits in Mali and Pakistan, and even humanitarian-themed races, flash mobs and soccer tournaments in Panama, Thailand and Côte d'Ivoire respectively.
Today also sees the official start of a global campaign called "The World Needs More__". The campaign brings together different parts of the United Nations and wider humanitarian community, as well as celebrities, philanthropists and corporations in an effort to turn people's words on social media into aid and support for communities affected by humanitarian crises.
"World Humanitarian Day is now recognized as a day of global importance," said Helen Clark, Administrator of the UN Development Programme (UNDP). "Last year, the humanitarian community reached millions of people through social media. This year, it aims to go one better and turn those 'shares' and 're-tweets' into real assistance for people in need."
'The World Needs More' campaign enables leading global brands to sponsor a word they believe the world could use more of. Between 19 August and 24 September, people can "unlock" money pledged by these brands by sharing the sponsored words through social media, SMS or through the campaign website www.worldhumanitarianday.org. Every time a sponsored word is shared, US$1 will be unlocked and go towards aid efforts in the world's most underfunded humanitarian crises. People will also be able to donate directly.
Large inflated blimps and balloons featuring the campaign's slogan and iconography are today flying over iconic locations in more than 20 cities around the world, including above UN headquarters in New York and the 'Hollywood' sign in Los Angeles.

MIAMI VALLEY, Ohio (WKEF/WRGT) - With the cold temperatures and dangers of refreezing, the possibility of falling on the ice is very real.
To protect yourself, fire officials recommend walking like a penguin. They said waddling increases your center of gravity, so spread your feet out slightly and take small steps.
FOX 45 spoke with the Vandalia Fire Department, who said they're getting one or two calls a day for weather related slips and falls.
"The other thing is to keep your hands out," Kimberly Hannahan with the department said, "because hands help with balance. Granted if you're going to fall, you want to do the tuck and roll, but keeping your hands out is going to help with your balance and center of gravity."
Kettering Hospital said they have had around half a dozen patients admitted for falling on ice in the past week, and Miami Valley Hospital has had one.

County Commissioners take action on several items.
The Sawyer Fire Station is in the last stages of completion, but the fire department needs additional time to complete their obligations to the Kansas Department of Commerce's Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Program. Therefore, the Pratt County Commissioners have asked for a one-month extension on their behalf to finish the project.
Items needing additional attention are door and window trim and baseboards. Additionally, the HVAC final connections need to be made.
In a letter to Linda Hunsicker, CDBG Field Representative, commissioners stated they felt an extension to the end of the year would allow all paperwork, including a public hearing, to complete the work.
Hunsicker was sent paperwork regarding the final walkthrough on Sept. 19th along with Dan Hall's assertion that this letter he uses on all his projects, has been accepted in the past, regarding Americans with Disabilities Act compliance. Also enclosed, are statements from Pratt County Clerk Sherry Kruse, that all items are in the project files at the Pratt County Courthouse and one from the CDBG administrator regarding fair housing. It was noted a previous letter was sent to Hunsicker containing a required Kansas Department of Transportation permit for the project.
In other maters, commissioners:
n Were informed by Dean Staab, Pratt County Environmental Director, that he recently sold four-semi trailer loads of recyclable scrap metal from the landfill for $176 a ton. Staab said he is still waiting on the weight to be computed. He also noted that Kiowa County might again start using the Pratt County Landfill for disposal of their recyclables.
n Approved and signed a plat of property for Pratt City Manager Dave Howard, relating to an area designated for a new motel complex. The area is located along U.S. 61 north of Pratt.
n Approved of Pratt County Sheriff Vernon Chinn assisting with the training of newly elected sheriffs in the state of Kansas at a weeklong seminar in Hutchinson.
n Gave permission to Pratt County Road and Bridge Supervisor Randy Phillippi to sell, for $6,000, a 20-foot trailer presently used at the lake for storage, to Arensdorf Construction.

Hear a concert live Friday at 12noon ET from WXPN and NPR Music
Broadcast live Fridays from the stage at World Cafe Live
Listen to the Concert Live Friday on the Radio and Online at XPN.org/listen.
Don't miss this Friday's Free at Noon performance by Cults, one of XPN's Artist(s) to watch for July! Cults have a bit of a fairy tale beginning, and their quick rise speaks volumes about the allure of their music.
Brian Oblivion and Madeline Follin have been together as a band and a couple for just about a year now, and they've commemorated with an eponymous debut. Oblivion and Follin met as students at NYU, and began to make music in their spare time. After the two posted a three-track demo on the popular indie music website Bandcamp, they began to get some serious buzz--in fact, the song "Go Outside" was labeled by Pitchfork as 'Best New Music'. Within a very short time after their initial viral success, Cults were picked up by major label Columbia and featured on NPR. It's rare that a band reaches the spotlight in so little time before actually releasing an album, but Cults did it. And going by the recent reception of their '60s pop collection, it seems like this little-band-that-could out of New York is not leaving any time soon.
"Cults" has already received another 'Best Music' label from Pitchfork for the sinister yet sweet flavor of the 11 pop-infused tracks. The sunny vocals of Follin can easily take a turn for something darker and edgier that obviously has more to do with the idea of cults. With the raspy, modern guitar riffs of Oblivion, the quick-changing pace of drum beats, and the glockenspiel-y reverb, this is a mesmerizing release--mysterious, cute, and dysfunctional all at once. Oblivion adeptly describes their music on NPR as "cautionary and romantic", taking inspiration from the "ambivalent, fascinating feelings with the concept" of a cult. Cults have successfully transcended their Internet notoriety into real life with this release, which has charted in both the UK and Canada. After adding to the lineup, Cults is touring the rest of the summer in North America and Europe. They've got stops in Portland, Los Angeles, and the UK--and of course World Cafe! They're an XPN Artist to Watch for July, and their quick rise to fame speaks volumes about their music--they're mesmerizing, whether in headphones or on a stage. But if you can, don't miss this live performance--it's sure to be a great way to start off the weekend.

Leupold TMR Reticle
I have a Leupold MK4 6.5x20 M5 scope with the TMR reticle.
I am a little confused about something. The scope is of course first focal plane, which me. ans that ranging via use of the mil marks can be done at any power.
That of course makes it easy to not make mistakes when ranging a target
and not remembering to have it on the correct magnification.
The part that I am confused about is in the manual. On the page in the manual that shows all the mil size break down for ranging ( target size verifying) it has a a list of sizes at certain yardage for the verticle and horizontal stadias. It states that the wires will be a specific width at certain powers which can be useful in target ranging. In otherwords, it helps break down the measurement into smaller units to be more accurate.
It also has a similar yardage chart for the center square aperture in the very center of the scope where the stadia wires almost intersect. I say they almost intersect because they stop short of center leaving a clear square. Pretty small but it's clear. That aperture size is a different dimension for differing yardages.
What I don't understand is , if it's a first focal plane, why do the other mil marks remain the same but the stadias and square aperture change depending on the magnification level ?
If someone knows and responds keep it in plain english if you could. Not being an engineer it might help to keep it in every day terms or example.

Are you looking at something like page 12 of this: http://www.leupold.com/resources/dow...ng_Reticle.pdf?
I think the manual is not just for the FFP scopes. Yours being FFP, the angular subtension of any given reticle feature is always the same.
In a SFP, everything changes with power adjustments.

Yep, that's the page. On the right side of the reticle, above and below the horizontal lines their are some listed correction factors for "fine line" widths and "center square aperture" at different magnifications.
To me, I would think that if the fine line changes the mil value why wouldn't any other widths and heights of mil lines change. I talked to the factory and they said it's just the fine lines and center square aperture.
Any help would be appreciated. I'm going to take it to my 200 yard range and do some checking on known size objects to see.

In a SFP scope, the reticle is meant to be used on one power and one power only. It can be used on others, but you have to use ratios to determine subtension.
The two blocks of text about "ALL FINE LINES" and "CENTER APERTURE" give information for multiple scopes. Leupold uses different reticles in different scopes to keep the lines from being too thin or too heavy. (You'll see that phenomena in your own scope... on low power you'll have a thin reticle. On higher power, you'll have a thicker reticle.) They space the features the same distance apart on all scopes, so those measurements do not have the multiple listings like the fine lines and center do.
If you had a SFP 2-8x set on 8x, the fine lines would be .06 and the center would be .18. If you had a SFP 3.5-14x set on 14x, the fine lines would be .04 and center would be .1. And down the line.
As you have a 20x, I expect that your center is always .07x.07. Your fine lines are always .03 MIL. Because you have a FFP, it will not change with power changes.

Landoll says its new 6230 tandem disk is heavier than most on the market to cut through heavy Bt stalk, putting down approximately 210 lbs./blade. Disc blade spacing is 83/4 in. Jamie Meier, Landoll's ag division sales manager, says this blade spacing does a nice job of sizing and leveling. "Some competitors use wider disk spacing for increased weight per blade but sacrifice leveling capabilities and allow more rootball crowns to go through untouched," he says.

Intentionprevious next
Also: Purposefulness
Intention is an awareness of purpose that guides our words and actions. When we are intentional, we use our time and other resources thoughtfully. Since we have limited energy, money and power, we treat these as precious gifts, not to be squandered carelessly but to be spent in ways that bring healing and happiness into the world. We direct our energy toward the things that mean the most to us and those we serve.
Intention is living day to day, even moment to moment, with a sense of choice and purpose. It means being continuously conscious of how the present moment relates to our values and goals--and where there are the greatest opportunities to cultivate love, beauty and delight.

Mapping the future of health care
Manitobans are on the leading edge of health research
Winnipeg Health Region
Wave, November / December 2012
When Dr. Lorrie Kirshenbaum decided to investigate how
genes affect the life and death of heart cells, he came up with
a novel approach to study the problem.
First, he developed a virus. Nothing too
serious - just a run-of-the-mill cold virus.
Then he took the gene in question and
inserted it into the virus. Once that was
done, he dropped the gene-carrying bug into
the heart tissue of a lab rat.
Through this process, which Kirshenbaum
pioneered in 1993, he was able to observe
how genes affect heart cells. In fact, this
technology allowed Kirshenbaum to be
among the first investigators to manipulate
adult heart cells with certain genes that
promoted DNA synthesis and cell growth.
He has also used this approach to genetically
engineer heart cells with special genes that
make them resistant to injury and death
after heart attack. In effect, he created a new
theatre in which to study heart disease and,
perhaps, how to cure it.
Now, nearly 20 years later, the gene-in-a-virus technique is helping Kirshenbaum
take another major step towards his ultimate
goal. Earlier this year, he announced that he
had identified a series of genes that switch on
when the heart muscle is deprived of oxygen.
The discovery is an intriguing one.
Learning how to prevent the genes from
switching on when starved of oxygen could
lead to new treatments to prevent damage
to heart muscle cells during heart attacks,
says Kirshenbaum, who is the University
of Manitoba's Canada Research Chair in
Molecular Cardiology at St-Boniface Hospital
Research. It could also open the door for new
approaches to treating cancer.
"What we discovered was that the genetic
pathway that gets switched on in the heart
when the cells are deprived of oxygen is the
same as the one that gets switched off in
cancer cells," says Kirshenbaum, who is also
a professor in the Departments of Physiology
and Pharmacology and Therapeutics at the
University of Manitoba's Faculty of Medicine.
"So this research could have a major impact in
the treatment for both diseases."
Kirshenbaum's ongoing investigation
into the life and death of cells is considered
world-class, and is just one example of
the leading edge research taking place in
Manitoba today. Everywhere you look,
researchers working in the lab or out in the
community are pushing the boundaries of
knowledge in their respective disciplines as
they map a path for the future of health care.
In doing so, today's researchers are building
on the legacies of a previous generation
of Manitoba research icons, people like
Drs. Bruce Chown and John Bowman,
who developed a cure for Rh disease, and
Dr. Joseph Doupe, who is credited with
transforming the University of Manitoba's
medical school following the Second World
War by emphasizing the importance of
research in the delivery of care.
But while the quest for knowledge may be as
old as the test tube itself, there are important
differences in the way researchers go about
their work today, says Dr. Peter Nickerson,
Associate Dean (Research) for the University
of Manitoba's Faculty of Medicine.
For example, researchers now have access
to an array of technologically advanced
tools to help them explore whole new
frontiers of medicine, including molecular
biology, proteomics and stem cell research.
"Compared to the tools that we had then,
the tools we have now are unbelievably
more sophisticated," says Nickerson, who
is also a member of the Manitoba Health
Research Council's Board of Directors.
He cites the case of American researcher
Craig Venter who decided about 10 years
ago to map the human genome. "That
whole exercise took about a year," he says.
Now, with the acquisition of the latest
technology in the form of the AB 5500 XL
gene sequencer, "We can do that in a week.
It's an explosion of capacity and speed that
is generating genetic data in a way we never
could do before."
Another example is the QStar Elite mass
spectrometer, used by scientists to analyze
the makeup of proteins. The instrument is
based on a design developed by a group led
by Dr. Ken Standing, professor emeritus,
and Dr. Werner Ens, professor, in the
Departments of Physics and Astronomy at
the University of Manitoba. "The earlier
versions of the mass spectrometer would take
days and give us a low level of resolution (of
a protein). Now that we have much more
sophisticated machines, they are able to go
through the analysis much faster and with a
much higher level of sensitivity. We're able
to detect low-level proteins that, before, we
didn't even know were there."
Nickerson likens advances in research
techniques to exploration of space. "It's like
looking at the moon through binoculars 50
years ago, and now you have the Hubble
telescope," he says. As a result, scientists
are better able to piece together how cells,
proteins and genes interact with each other
in the human body. "And it is through
that interaction that we are able to actually
think about how we might modify that
interaction… so that in the case of cancer,
you shut off cancer growth, or in the case
of auto-immune disease, you shut off the
auto-immune process, and have healing and
recovery of normal function. In that sense,
it is a new world," says Nickerson.
Kirshenbaum's work is a case in point.
In order to carry out his research, he
first needed to develop the technology or
technique of dropping the gene into a virus.
Then, using a number of highly sophisticated
molecular biology techniques coupled with
a laser scanning fluorescence microscope,
he was able to see where the genes he
introduced into the heart cells were located
and their effects on cell growth.
Kirshenbaum and his team of 10
researchers, comprised of students, post-doctoral
trainees, and research associates,
are not the only ones coming up with new
answers to old problems. Within the last
few years, the University of Manitoba's
Faculty of Medicine has opened, directly or
in partnership with other groups, a number
of labs to explore new fields of medical
research. They include:
The Regenerative Medicine Program
Headed by Dr. Geoff Hicks, this lab
includes eight principal investigators, 36
graduate students, 20 technologists and
10 post-doctoral fellows. The objective
is to develop stem cell therapies to treat
conditions ranging from cancer to spinal
cord injury.
The Manitoba Centre for Proteomics
and Systems Biology
Led by Dr. John
Wilkins, this lab has seven principal
investigators and about 35 support staff.
It was created to study proteins, the
biochemical compounds that essentially
build every living cell. Understand how
proteins operate and you can gain new
insights into what happens when cells
become infected or diseased.
These groups represent a new wave of
research that is emerging in Manitoba, all of
it aimed at developing better care for people
in Manitoba and beyond.
One of the province's more established
research groups can be found at the
Manitoba Institute for Child Health.
As the Director of Research, Dr. Terry
Klassen heads one of the largest research
organizations of its kind with more than
200 affiliated principal investigators. He
says the impact of research on patients
can be seen every day. "When you look at
our major themes of Biology of Breathing
and the Diabetes groups, what you'll
find is leading researchers and clinicians
tackling major health problems that have a
tangible benefit to care here in Manitoba,"
says Klassen, who is also Associate Dean
(Academic) and professor of Pediatrics
and Child Health at the University of
Manitoba's Faculty of Medicine. "Asthma
and diabetes are both huge issues in
Manitoba, and we've been able to bring
together the basic bio-medical researchers
and clinicians caring for these children."
In health research parlance, the idea
of gathering researchers from different
backgrounds under one roof is known as
"clustering." For example, the Biology of
Breathing group at MICH includes experts
from completely different backgrounds who
are all working on different problems. But
working side by side has its benefits. Simply
put, they feed off each other's passion,
experiences and wealth of expertise.
As evidence of this, Klassen cites the work
of Dr. Richard Keijzer, who came to work
at MICH from the Netherlands because
it offered him the opportunity to run a
research lab and still see patients.
As a pediatric surgeon, Keijzer performs
minimally invasive laparoscopic procedures
on newborn babies. But he also conducts
important research on lung development
problems of the fetus in utero. His
experimental techniques will someday
lead to a less invasive treatment for what's
referred to as a "diaphragmatic hernia," a
developmental defect in utero that causes the
lungs of newborns to be malformed, leading
to lifelong breathing problems.
Keijzer's innovative research involves
nano-technology. Together with Dr.
Malcolm Xing, he developed a treatment for
the disorder using nanoparticles - which are
essentially engineered molecules - that has
already shown promise in the lab. A cure is
likely still a number of years away, but in the
meantime, Keijzer carries on as a pediatric
surgeon, helping to improve outcomes for
mothers and newborns. "He (Keijzer) is a
clinician who brings a very important skill
to the province," explains Klassen. "By
recruiting him, with a strong commitment to
research, the kids in Manitoba now benefit."
Working alongside Keijzer, who was
recently named the U of M's Thorlakson
Chair of Surgical Research, are Xing, an
assistant professor in the Department of
Mechanical and Manufacturing Engineering
at the University of Manitoba's Faculty of
Engineering, and an expert in bio-engineering
and nano-medicine, and Dr. Andrew
Halayko, Canada Research Chair in Airway
Cell and Molecular Biology at the University
of Manitoba, Head of the Biology of Breathing
Group, and a leader in personalized medicine
and lung disease.
While they're all focused on their own
specific research, their work frequently
intersects. For example, if Halayko is
trying to figure out how to regenerate lung
tissue, he may seek out the experience
of Keijzer, who treats pediatric patients
with lung disorders. Or Xing may develop
a new form of fibre that can serve as a
framework to create living airway tissue in
a lab that Keijzer and Halayko can use in
their research. "That's the very essence of
clustering," says Klassen.
The Manitoba Health Research Council,
which already plays an important role in
helping to fund new research in Manitoba,
sees merit in supporting the clustering
concept. As Nickerson explains, efforts
are underway to develop core strengths
throughout the research community that
can be bolstered through additional funding
and recruitment. "For us to be successful, for
us to compete for federal funding, for grant
funding, and investment by industry, we
have to be focused. And focus means getting
groups of people to cluster together and say,
'We're going to work on a challenge; this is
going to be our focus.'"
In addition to the Biology of Breathing
group, Nickerson says there are many other
examples of clustering going on in Winnipeg's
research community. The Cardiac Sciences
group at St-Boniface Research, which includes
Kirshenbaum, is one example. The HIV
research group at the National Microbiology
Laboratory, which includes Drs. Frank
Plummer and Keith Fowke, is another. "We
clearly have strengths, areas where we have
well-established groups leading in their
area and who are successful at getting grant
funding," says Nickerson.
The concept of clustering can also be used
to link researchers in different organizations.
Take, for example, a project touted by
the MHRC that involves people from the
University of Winnipeg, Health Sciences
Centre and the Winnipeg Health Region.
As Dr. James Currie, Dean of Science
at the University of Winnipeg, explains,
scientists in the university's Physics
Department are working with staff from
HSC and the Region on a new method of
producing medical isotopes that doesn't
require a nuclear reactor.
"We are creating medical isotopes using
a linear accelerator," Currie says. Someday,
their work may lead to a replacement for the
isotopes produced at Chalk River, the aging
nuclear reactor in Ontario. This new method
will produce little waste - unlike a nuclear
reactor. Currie calls it a "green way" of
producing the isotopes necessary for medical
imaging used in mapping cancerous tumours
and other disease. Demand for isotopes is
high all over the world, so it's likely that
innovation here in Winnipeg will benefit
health care everywhere.
The U of W is also home to several
other MHRC-supported researchers,
including those working in the field of
environmental science. "Dr. Charles Wong is
a Canada Research Chair in Environmental
Toxicology," Currie says, adding that
Wong has recently received an MHRC
establishment grant. He is studying the
persistence and fate of man-made chemicals
on the environment - a subject obviously
critical to human health." Normally, when
people think of the MHRC, they might think
of medical school," Currie says. "But here's
a chemist who is also in the Department of
Environmental Studies and Sciences."
The idea of clustering is not limited to
the hard sciences. As Nickerson points out,
community health research has become an
increasingly important component of health
research overall. "There are researchers who
are looking at how social environments affect
health," he says. "How do they put people
at risk for disease? If you can prevent those
situations, then you can prevent diseases
from occurring in the first place."
He points to the example of the Diabetes
Research Envisioned and Accomplished
in Manitoba (DREAM). This group of
researchers, scientists and medical doctors is
working with community outreach workers
and others to tackle the growing problem of
Type 2 diabetes among young people, mostly
in northeastern Manitoba. In addition to the
lab work that will help identify biomarkers
that may signal the early warning signs of
Type 2 diabetes, other members of the team
are looking at how other factors, such as
physical activity, sleep, diet and stress may
affect a child's health. "Why is health care
so expensive? Because we are reacting all the
time to the diseases we are presented with as
opposed to investing in prevention. Those
investigations are looking at how to help
people avoid (developing disease) in the first
place," says Nickerson.
Beyond Winnipeg, MHRC is also
supporting health-care research focused on
rural areas. "Historically, most of the funding
that has been provided by MHRC is for
researchers based in Winnipeg, primarily
for the University of Manitoba," says Dr.
Dean Care, acting Vice-President, Academic
Provost at Brandon University. But in
the last few years, researchers at Brandon
University's Faculty of Health Studies have
received MHRC funding, which is then used
to leverage more funding from the national
fund providers, such as the Canadian
Institutes for Health Research.
Care is a member of the research team
that has received funding from MHRC. The
team is studying the health of rural post-secondary
students at Brandon University
and the University of Saskatchewan campus
in Prince Albert. The goal is to identify ways
to help students avoid developing unhealthy
behaviours. Like the saying goes, an ounce of
prevention is worth a pound of cure.
The student health study is just the
beginning. "The 'M' in MHRC stands
for Manitoba, but it has been seen as the
Winnipeg Health Research Council," Care
says. "Today, this funding support means
there is more than just lip service being paid
to rural areas, and we see ourselves as part of
the future of health-care research. That's very

text: Hi there Some of you might be aware of the fact that RPMs can easily be converted to DEBs using alien - as long as there are no heavy dependencies etc. Since Debian (Squeeze) has very outdated OpenVZ packages, I decided to take a look at the OpenVZ wiki and found out, that the RPMs can be used on Debian without fear as well (http://wiki.openvz.org/Install_kernel_from_RPM_on_Debian_6.0). So I tried them and in fact, they are very stable - and you get ploop support and more. However, it's not that cool to go through the process over and over (converting / copying) so I created a package repository for the converted RPMs letting me install them on all servers without a pain. I thought it might be of interest for some of you too, so here are the details you need to start using the repo: 1. Supported ------------ Debian Squeeze amd64 Debian Squeeze i386 (Ubuntu and other .deb based distors may be supported too) 2. Add public GPG key --------------------- wget http://packages.rackster-server.ch/key.asc apt-key add key.asc 3. Add repository ----------------- nano /etc/apt/sources.list and add: http://packages.rackster-server.ch/debian stable main 4. Update --------- apt-get update apt-get install <package> 5. Available packages --------------------- * libcgroup * libcgroup-devel * libcgroup-pam * ploop * ploop-devel * ploop-lib * vzctl * vzctl-core * vzkernel * vzkernel-debug * vzkernel-debug-devel * vzkernel-devel * vzkernel-firmware * vzkernel-headers * vzquota I did nothing other than the alien process/command listed in the OpenVZ wiki - so absolutely no credits to me! As I didn't find any information about if it's allowed to run a package repository containing their packages, I wrote the Parallels support (still awaiting an answer), but I don't see a problem in it. However, if I get news - I'll let you know. Regards, Michel

Pets, Pets, Pets
"I want all of you to know without a glimmer of uncertainty, that all of our pets, and animals of every kind, live on the Other Side, also known as "heaven" or "the afterlife."
... Sylvia Browne, psychic and spiritual teacher...
...and so begins the book Ghost Cats by Dusty Rainbolt, an historical and testimonial collection detailing human encounters with feline spirits...a mesmerizing read for cat and ghost lovers alike, a book not meant to frighten us (well, just a little), but more to comfort all who have ever lost a cherished cat. These many touching tales of felines who refused to let death separate them from their human companions bring consolation and hope.
People have long noted that cats are mystical. Ghost Cats takes these feline supernatural powers to a higher level. Dusty Rainbolt, a multi award winning cat writer, product editor for Catnip (Tufts' veterinary newsletter), and foster Mom to many orphaned kittens, was skeptical too until her fragile tuxedo Maynard "came back" to say his final goodbye.
This foster kitten had been born hydrocephalic and at 8 months died while Dusty was away. Even though his condition limited his lifespan, she felt guilty for not being there. Two weeks later, Dusty sensed Maynard's return one night as he slept against her. She felt at peace and forgiven. A cat ghost? Get real. Did she conjure him up? She started to question her own sanity. That's when she reached out to others about similar paranormal encounters. The response was overwhelming and unexpected.
The many cat ghost experiences reported were not scary (with the exception of the harbinger "Demon Cat" who resides in the basement of the Capitol Building in DC and has been spotted before the Lincoln and Kennedy assassinations and the 1929 stock crash.) Most folks said that their feline phantoms brought them closure, final farewells, lessened guilt over obtaining a new pet, or granted them permission to get on with their lives. Certain ghostly visitors including "Blu" a resident cat at a veterinary hospital and "Mikey Mouser" a purrsonal therapist re-surfaced briefly to pass the "cat-love" torch to their protégées.
Some cats appear to their guardians; others announce their presence to guests in the home. The cat apparitions manifest themselves in creative ways- an orb of light, a meow or purr, a brush by or cuddle; phantom litter boxes, invisible playmates to other cats. "Trixie" gave her favorite ripped recliner one last scratch; "Dyna" stared in the window at the candle lit in her memory; "Grungy" had tea with a lady dying of cancer; "Spooky" still lingers outside the screen door to converse with his kitty housemates.
Later Dusty describes hotels and public buildings rumored to have cat spirits. "Morris" a huge orange cat who resided at the Crescent Hotel in Eureka Springs, Arkansas waited for his favorite guest to return so he could jump up on her lap. "Tom Cat" was a casualty of the Civil War during a Georgia battle but, according to many witnesses, his specter still walks the ruins of Fort McAllister.
The author also explores feline folklore and reminds us that cats, particularly black cats are revered as sacred or symbols of good luck over most of the world. Their value as rodent hunters has saved the food supply of civilizations. Think...Egypt. Because of witchcraft hysteria and the Church's persecution during the Middle Ages, cats were almost wiped out. Hence, people were almost wiped out too, since the Bubonic Plague is carried by rat fleas. Presently the evil black cat stigma continues to ruin the reputation of black cats in the US, Belgium and Spain. (With Halloween approaching, rescue groups are split on whether "black cat adoption bans" help or hurt these poor cats least likely to find homes anyway.)
...But I digress, Ghost Cats celebrates the special bond we have with our departed whiskered pals; and strengthens the possibility that there is a Rainbow Bridge where we will be reunited with all our beloved pets one day. Whether or not you believe in ghost stories, if you are a cat lover, Ghost Cats by Dusty Rainbolt is a
must" for your book shelf- available at the Lyons Press, www.globepequot.com, or at Amazon.com. Just ask the literary ghost cat who wanders the Cumberland University Library in Tennessee. He'll agree.
•Babylon Town Shelter (643-9270) Lamar St. W. Babylon has a large selection of dogs and cats just waiting to become someone's dear companion. "Moo Moo" the large black Lab mix, with a bovine build, belonged to a lady too ill to care for her. This sweetie in Cage 51 waited for her owner to return to claim her but that never happened. The female kitten #18955 in the lobby is a bobtail, not the purebred- most likely a birth defect. See more photos on the shelter's Petfinder site.

I am thinking yau man goes to exile... that one clip of him he is walking int he water with paper... Is that the clue from Exile.other guess would be Dre sends Cassandra to exile to try and get clue for II.
Right well Yau/Stacy/Boo are teamed together for the RC but there is another part of the RC that I read and they also get to drive the truck with the large crate on the back and hand out goodies to the children in Fiji but I don't know if Dre, now owning the car, gets to choose who goes with him or how it works?
Boo looked pissed that he gave away the truck. But did you notice...It was BOO driving the truck Dre was in the passenger seat.

|Need Help??
update: MidLifeXis' explanation got thru my thick skull... and seems plausible. Apologies for wasting the effort of so many electrons and Monks but I do think the last graf still stands... and, FTR, a comment or narrative explanation of "1144" by the OP would have been, IMO, highly desireable.
Monk 0day: Would you kindly explain your statements? I don't see that either has any relevance.
"1144" remains a representation of an hour and minute that are not even close to midnight but it's being used as the code for the question "Is it almost midnite, and time to close the old log file and open a new one?"
and NJBTW, any update of $ymd " after sleep 1 at 11:44AM is not going to be any different than the old one, so while there will be a new file created, it will have the same name as (and overwrite) the previous one. The test MUST occur much closer to midnight and with an appropriate sleep to ensure the calendar turns to another day.

Kellie Pickler Flies With the Blue Angels
If you follow country cutie Kellie Pickler on Twitter, you know that on May 9, she checked off a seriously awesome item from her bucket list: flying jets with the U.S. Navy Blue Angels.
The Blue Angels is the United States NAVY Flight Demonstration Squadron, which also represents the U.S. Marine Corps. 'Flight Demonstration Squad' is a fancy way of saying that the Blue Angels fly at crazy-high speeds, while performing wild turns, spins, drops and barrel rolls. Blue Angel pilot LT Mark Tedrow let Kellie Pickler in the action yesterday, as they soared from ground level to 2,000 feet in a matter of four seconds. The flight left from the Smyrna Airport, where the Blue Angels will be performing for the Great Tennessee Air Show this weekend.
The former 'American Idol' contestant was blown away by the experience. After her 45-minute flight landed she wrote on Twitter, "I just landed! It was INCREDIBLE!!! Biggest adrenaline rush EVER!!"
Later she followed up by thanking the Blue Angels by tweeting "THANK YOU @BlueAngels for the fastest most badass ride of my life!!!! Let's fly again soon!!! " and posting a photo of her with her pilot.
Even though her celebrity has continued to grow since her 'American Idol' days, Pickler has always made time to serve the military. She has said in interviews that she is most proud of her service in the USO, through which she has performed her hit songs for troops serving in Iraq and Afghanistan. Flying with the Blue Angels was just another way for Pickler to celebrate the military's service to our country. But this time, they gave back to her with the experience of a lifetime!

The essentials for setting up a computer for photography as your own digital darkroom
We often refer to a computer set-up for photography as a digital darkroom, as they have taken the place of the traditional wet darkrooms for many photographers. A digital darkroom not only replaces the processes of old – it improves on them and offers control and capabilities far beyond traditional processes too. The heart of any system is the computer itself; it is the powerhouse that works behind the scenes to perform all the 'number-crunching' processing quickly and effectively.
The age-old debate as to whether a PC or Apple Mac computer is the best option for imaging continues, though differences in their abilities and performance is negligible and both are more than capable of complex image-editing tasks.
Digital means getting results fast, but you'll need a system to match your needs. A computer set-up is easily obtainable from a variety of manufacturers and can often be customised to the specification of your choosing. But with 'quad core' this and 'gigahertz' that, what exactly should you look for, what do these specs mean and why might you want to invest more money in certain areas? We show you the basic info to look out for when buying…
Your Monitor
Your monitor is your only real representation of your image before you print it, so its ability to accurately display colour and tone is paramount. A higher quality monitor will offer a better colour reproduction (or wider gamut), so it's worth investing in a decent screen. If you don't intend to print your images, however, (keeping them online, for instance) you need to be less concerned with the full range of colours the monitor offers. Screen resolution is also important as it provides more real estate to work with.
A standard screen will offer 1280×1024 pixels, while the new 27in iMac, for example, has a larger-than-Full-HD 2560×1440 resolution – perfect for video editors setting a full 1080p clip in the centre with plenty of surrounding space for software tools, such as an editing program. The resolution is also great for seeing large stills while editing too, so there's less need to magnify the images within the program.
Hard Disk
Images and video take up a lot of space. So when it comes to internal hard disk space, think big. Terabytes big. The more you have the better, though it's an absolute essential to have backup external drives, as any mechanical device (including your hard drive) can fail and precious data can be lost. Most new models offer at least 200GB hard drives as standard but for imaging it is worth investing in a 500GB drive, or 1TB (terabyte) if your budget can stretch to it.
Essentially the computer's brain, the processor executes program instructions, as measured in hertz (cycles per second). A 1GHz processor, for example, can execute one billion instructions per second. And with technology getting ever more demanding, multi-core processors have become more common. The latest Intel processors are the i3, i5, and i7 models, with AMD offering similar performances from the latest Athlon and Phenom models.
Graphics Card
The graphics card deals with ensuring images are displayed correctly. For a static image, where pixels remain in the same place, the graphics card has a relatively easy job. However, video processing, 3D modelling or other such complex displays are more intensive on your graphics card. Graphics cards have dedicated RAM specifically for this visual-relay purpose, with a 256MB or 512MB card becoming more common and useful for complex editing.
'Random Access Memory', the computer's RAM, is like a short-term memory bank. Unlike hard disks that require mechanical movement, RAM is flash-based for immediacy that then feeds the processor.
Different derivatives (DDR SDRAM, for example) are the beefed-up versions that are most compliant with current motherboard and processor speeds, but are built on the same original principle of operation.Generally speaking the more RAM the better, as more programs can sit loaded 'in wait' for quick and/or simultaneous use.
But if your operating system is 32-bit it can only directly connect with about 3GB of RAM, any more being redundant. 64-bit operating systems can connect with 4-8GB and potentially even more, though this comes at cost and the performance gain won't rise too steeply. 2-4GB is plenty for a standard setup.
The two common standards for connections to your computer are USB and Firewire. In the coming months USB 3.0 will likely become more commonplace, and for good reason – it's incredibly fast. However, you'll need the full hardware in place to be USB 3.0 compliant. The next-fastest standard is Firewire 800, followed by USB 2.0. Another worthy venture is to look for a computer with an SD port as this may come in handy for quick transfer of images.

Thermopian Exterior on a Modern Polish Home
I love a house that is proportionally shaped like an iconic "house" — two stories with an approximate roof pitch of 45 degrees! The plans for this home in Poland by moomoo architects take the basic "house" shape and play with it by simplifying the form and then wrapping the home's exterior in Thermopian — a plastic material used in roofing that has thermal and acoustic insulating abilities. The best part? Thermopian can be produced in ANY color!
The angled wall was designed by moomoo architects in response to local zoning laws in Lodz, Poland — buildings are required to be built parallel to property lines! This home is scheduled to be completed in 2010.
I'm interested to learn more about Thermopian — even though it is plastic, if it is long-lasting and has superior insulating abilities, it could be a very eco-conscious choice. Many traditional homes already have these plastic membranes underneath more traditional materials and this design uses the functional material as an aesthetic material too (reducing the total amount of resources used!).

London: Kristen Stewart has ended her year on a high note after being named one of the most inspiring stars of 2012 by a website.
The 'Twilight' star hit the headlines this year, when she split from her boyfriend Robert Pattinson after confessing to a "momentary indiscretion" with married director Rupert Sanders.
The 22-year-old actress earned 7th spot on E!'s end-of-year round-up for handling the controversy with dignity, the Daily Star reported.
Explaining Stewart's position at number seven on the list, editors at EOnline.com wrote, "What do you do when you screw up, and get caught?"
"If you're the Twilight actress, you apologise, put your head down and do your work, even if doing your work means putting you in front of the same people - the press and the public - who spent their summer scrutinising and criticising your every move.
"It may not be the classic feel-good tale, but it's a blueprint nonetheless on how to take your lumps," they wrote.
Other stars who made the list include R and B singer Frank Ocean, who "came out" as gay in July (12), and female punk band Pussy Riot, three members of the group were jailed in August (12) for performing a protest song against Russian President Vladimir Putin in a Moscow church.
The most inspiring stars of 2012 are:
1. The heroes of Aurora, Colorado
2. Lana Wachowski
3. Robin Roberts
4. Frank Ocean
5. Abraham Lincoln
6. Lizzie Velasquez and Jennifer Livingston
7. Kristin Stewart
8. Jennifer Hudson
10. Oscar Pistorius

The Kyokushin World Tournament was a resounding success for Hungary. Two gold and two bronze medals are the result of hard work, determination and faith Hungarian fighters put into this tournament. Congrats go out to the Hungarian Kyokushin family but especially to the two world champions, Csenge Szepesi and Gábor Rózsa.
Let their example shine on the Hungarian sky under which a nation has been fighting for survival in the hands of a criminal Socialist regime determined to serve the country up to international criminals that are effectively destroying the social fabric of the nation.

Liberty Convocation
LYNCHBURG, Va. (AP) — NFL quarterback Tim Tebow and former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee are among the speakers scheduled for Liberty University's spring convocations.
The Lynchburg, Va., school holds convocation three times a week for its thousands of Christian students. Liberty Chancellor Jerry Falwell Jr. says they're the largest gatherings of Christian students in the country.
Huckabee, now a television and radio host, speaks Jan. 28 and Tebow will come to the campus as part of the Wildfire Men's Impact Weekend Conference on March 8.
The Rev. Franklin Graham, the son of evangelist Billy Graham, will speak on Jan. 21.
Liberty's convocation schedule runs from Jan. 16 through April 29 and features almost 30 speakers.

Add this to the extreme birth story files: a 22 year old Warren, Michigan woman gave birth after she was abducted from her home, shot and set on fire (!), reports the Detroit Free Press.
The woman, who was nine months pregnant, went out with her baby's father on Friday night. When they went back to their house, a man in the garage bound and gagged her and drove around on Detroit highways. He eventually stopped and shot the woman and set her on fire with lighter fluid.
Plus: Baby Accidentally Flushed Down a Toilet After Woman Gives Birth
How did she survive this? The woman played dead and her attackers left the scene. After rolling out the flames and breaking out of her duct tape bonds, she drove the car to a nearby gas station and got help. Two men—including the father of her baby—are currently in police custody over the crime.
Plus: Woman Gives Birth Hours After Finishing Marathon
At about 4:30 am this morning, she gave birth to a boy after 12 hours in labor. Let's hope mom and baby come out of this healthy and safe!

text: The Pleasant Ridge Rams couldn't be stopped and cruised to a 42-10 win over the Jefferson County North Chargers on Friday in their home opener. "We weren't expecting this," said head coach Pat McCollim. It was 42-3 at the half and sophomore quarterback Nick Holmes had 197 total yards and four touchdowns before him and the rest of the starters sat out in the second half. "We came out and executed and took advantage of some things they were giving us," McCollim said. The Rams were able to get big chunks of yardage at a time throughout the first half. Holmes had five runs for more than 10 yards, including a 48-yard run that led to his nine-yard touchdown run to make it 30-3 in the middle of the second quarter. "He keeps getting better every week," McCollim said. "He's reading the option very well and we got to get the arm involved a little bit." He also had a 62-yard touchdown pass to a wide-open Blake Graham late in the first half to score the final points for the Rams. The senior running back ran it three times for 74 yards and two touchdowns, too. His first touchdown was a 10-yard scamper to make it 22-0 early in the second quarter. The second was his second biggest play of the night when he ran for 48 yards to put the Rams up 36-2 with 3:32 left in the half. The Chargers were able to get three points after a 12-play drive to make it 22-3 with 5:58 left in the second quarter. Their touchdown came on their second drive of the second half on a nine-play drive that ended with a three-yard touchdown run to make it 42-10 with 9:29 left in the game. There were only a combined five drives in the second half because of the continuous running clock. McCollim said he was pleased with the performance of the backup players because they are usually just the scout team for the opponent in practice. "They just don't get a lot of chances to get reps and I was extremely happy that they could line up right," he said. The Rams will face Oskaloosa on the road next week. "They are well coached and they run an offense that you have to be disciplined on," McCollim said. "We will be emphasizing our jobs and responsibilities." Immaculata 29, Onaga 69 The Raiders fall to 0-2 after the road loss. Quarterback Justin Varney threw four touchdowns. Drew Sachen ran for 76 yards off four carries. Tonganoxie 41, Atchison 14 The Chieftains had 325 yards on the ground. Cole Holloway had 143 yards to lead the team. Basehor 6, Piper 12 The Bobcats fell behind 12-0 in the fourth and got a touchdown pass from Tim Sanders to Jahron McPherson, but a late interception sealed the win for Piper. The two teams only combined for 365 yards. Basehor had 141 yards and Piper recorded 224. The teams combined to go 7-for-27 on third down.

Amsterdam is the capital city of the Netherlands. It has set itself ambitious targets for reducing CO2 emissions—a 40 percent reduction in 2025 compared to 1990—and is well known for its innovative and collaborative approach to addressing this challenge.
It sought to develop a methodology to gain insights into how to reduce its carbon footprint and identify opportunities for renewable energy as well as to engage with various stakeholders such as grid operators, water and waste management organizations, housing corporations and knowledge institutes.
Accenture Strategy was invited to join the TRANSFORM program—a consortium of six European cities, led by Amsterdam—to develop an energy planning decision support environment (DSE). Cooperating with the Austrian Institute of Technology, who brought in their highly-specialized geographic information system, Accenture Strategy provided both strategic and program management support and its prescriptive simulation and optimization capability.

Let's play a game. Below I list six actual news headlines and it's your job to guess what year they were written.
1. "Refinance your home now" - Kiplingers.com
Continue Reading Below
2. "Tips for Refinancing your Mortgage" - New York Times
3. "It's now Literally the Best Time Ever to Refinance Your Mortgage" - BusinessInsider.com
4. "Mortgages: Why it may be time to refinance Your Loan" - Wall Street Journal
5. "The Great American Refinancing" - Barrons Magazine
6. "Is Now a Good Time to Refinance" - Smart Money Magazine
If you answered 2012 for all of them, it would be a perfectly logical guess, as all of these articles would certainly pertain to today's environment. But, if you answered 2008, 2009, 2010, 2010, 2011, and 2012 you would score perfectly. Yes, these headlines are actually listed in order of appearance by year starting in 2008!
In hindsight, it is obvious that none of the articles are correct.
30 year mortgage rates (ChicagoOptions:^TYX) have consistently fallen for years, making now actually the best time in a generation (so far) to refinance. This month the rate is around 3.36% and continues down.
Three Problems with Conventional Advice
Unfortunately, the writers of the articles and most mortgage advisers, brokers, agents, etc have three things working against them.
The first is that they all have inherent conflicts of interest. The fact is their livelihoods depend on real estate transactions and home price stability / gains, so they are obligated to keep the rhetoric positive and encourage transactions.
The second is that they have all fall victim to what I will call the "bottom picking trap". It is fun to try to pick bottoms, but it definitely is not a smart investment strategy. The popular phrase "catch a falling knife" comes to mind. The other popular phrase, "the market can stay irrational longer than you can stay solvent" also comes to mind.
The final item working against these advisers is that they seemingly are using rhetoric and opinions and aren't using data and charts for decision making. Therefore they are at a great disadvantage.
A Better Approach
The below chart, provided in the October ETF Profit Strategy Newsletter shows the iShares Barclays 20+ Year Treasury Bond ETF (NYSEArca:TLT) at a price of $120.17 and in a decade long uptrend. It is a proxy for the 20+ year treasury bond index as well as 30 year mortgage rates.
On 9/21 in our Newsletter we stated, "The flight away from troubled European debt isn't the only reason behind the continued shift into treasuries. Besides continuing foreign demand, long-term treasuries still have a few more bullish factors:
1. The Fed's $45 billion monthly rotation from short-term to long-term Treasuries continues through the end of 2012. (The Fed announced on 12/12 the continuance of Operation Twist while also adding another $45 billion in long term treasury purchases)
2. Treasury yields are still high for comparable maturing debt (Japan, Switzerland, & others)
Technically we added, "so long as TLT stays above its decade long support at $95, we're staying long". That day marked the low of its correction and today the TLT remains in its long term uptrend.
When I wrote my original article on 7/20/12 the average 30 year fixed mortgage cost 3.56%. Waiting until now would have knocked 20 basis points off your mortgage. On a $500k home that equates to a 30 year interest savings over $20,000.
Right now 30 year mortgage rates are at their lowest levels in a generation, but that doesn't mean a bottom is here and that today is the last opportunity ever to refinance! Learn from the mistakes made by the media: Just because rates and prices are at extremes, does not mean they can't become even more extreme.
The Fed has also recommitted to buying long dated treasuries and the old adage, "don't fight the Fed" is still alive.
Other ETFs that take advantage of a continued downtrend in mortgage rates are the ProShares Ultra 20+ Year Treasury (NYSEARCA:UBT) and the SPDR Barclays Capital Long Term Treasury (NYSEARCA:TLO). They will rise in price as yields fall.
To capitalize on a trend change in long term government bonds and mortgages when it does come, ETFs such as the ProShares UltraShort 20+ Year Treasury (NYSEARCA:TBT) and the unlevered version (NYSEARCA:TBF) can be utilized.
ETFs that follow the mortgage market include the iShares Barclays MBS Bond (NYSEARCA:MBB) and the iShares FTSE NAREIT Index (NYSEARCA:REM).
At the ETF Profit Strategy Newsletter we prefer not to try to catch falling knives, but instead use technicals and data-driven analysis to identify where markets are headed. The difference between a few basis points on your 30-year mortgage is massive, and many homeowners would have benefited by waiting until now (or still later) to refinance. When a trend change in bonds does actually occur, prices will tell us. Follow us on Twitter @ETFguide
