Ascentric: limited risk tools drive advisers to DFMs
by Michelle Abrego on Feb 26, 2013 at 15:34
Limitations in the risk and asset allocation tools used by advisers are driving them to outsource investment to discretionary fund managers (DFMs) in order to be compliant, according to Ascentric.
Speaking at the Defaqto DFM conference, Ascentric chief executive Hugo Thorman said that advisers are limited in their ability to service their client, both by the tools they use and the permissions they have.
He said 'it was very difficult for advisers too move away from their tools' when recommending rebalancing portfolios without a discretionary fund manager.
He gave an example: 'Most advisers agree that bonds at the moment, whether sovereign or corporate, are priced high, and because of government moves it's highly likely that the next movement will be down.'
'But your risk tool will tell you that you need to have a chunky amount of a client's portfolio in bonds. The only person that could really take a different view is a DFM.
'I would say that its very difficult for an adviser to take a brave view like that. Some of you will and it will be well documented but it always be a brave step and veer away from that [tool].'
Thorman said that adviser portfolios could also possibly lead to Treating Customers Fairly issues.
After an adviser has set an asset allocation, the adviser cannot move the asset allocation until the client agrees and at times clients do not respond quickly enough, leaving the portfolio unbalanced, he said.
Governance was also stressed by Thorman: 'It is everything that I'm absolutely sure that the regulator will be looking at in the third part of this year when they look to see how the retail distribution review is progressing.'
'I do urge you to consider that everywhere you can.'

Oh dear, oh dear oh dear - quick, point me to my nearest DFM's with the absolute minimum of delay!
I sometimes wonder who these people think they are!

There are plenty of DFMs who will run a range of risk graded portfolios for an advisory firm for less than 1% (all in TER no hidden costs). Why wouldn't you want to outsource the work and the risk at that price?

In the shower, hot jock Brad Hunt is getting sucked off by hairy-chested Hunter Scott. Brad feels Hunter's hot breath on his balls and closes his eyes until Hunter swallows every inch of his mammoth cock. Hunter pokes his round bubble ass out at Brad, who licks and rims his sweet butthole. Brad probes Hunter's ass, sticking his tongue further and further. He spits on Hunter's ass, wetting him up for the furious fuck-pounding he's about to administer. He presses his cockhead against Hunter's ass and bucks his hips...sliding his dick in right up to the balls. Harder and harder Brad fucks Hunter until both men watch their loads drip down the drain.

The Key That Fits the Lock, Part SixANTHONY ESOLENAnd the proud men in the valley of Shinar said, "Go to, let us build a city and a tower, whose top may reach unto heaven; and let us make a name, lest we be scattered abroad upon the face of the earth." (Gen. 11:4)
"Now the Lord had said unto Abram, Get thee out of thy country, and from thy kindred, and from thy father's house, unto a land that I will show thee: And I will make of thee a great nation, and I will bless thee, and make thy name great; and thou shalt be a blessing . . . and in thee shall all families of the earth be blessed." (Gen. 12:1-3) If any man ever tasted the blessings of the twentieth century and found them insipid, that man was Malcolm Muggeridge. He was tutored in the Fabian social vision of his father: earnest improvers of the lot of mankind, quite innocent in their way, and quite ineffectual, lacking any solid foundation for their ideals, which turned to vapor once the heat was on. He taught English at a school in India, enjoying the Spartan perks of a sahib, and sensing the absurdity of it all — that a doddering empire should command such respect, as to make otherwise sensible Hindu natives value themselves for learning about Wordsworth and cricket. He risked disrepute when, unlike Pulitzer Prize winning Soviet apologist Walter Duranty of The New York Times, he revealed to the world Stalin's program of starving millions of Ukrainians. Amazed by the credulity and sycophancy of the "intellectual" class, he attributed it to a powerful drug: the quest for power. He witnessed what that drug did for Nazi Germany. Working for British Intelligence during World War II, he, like his friend George Orwell, saw that his nation's information engine, the British Broadcasting Corporation, was simply in the business of spreading propaganda and lies. Muggeridge was grateful that the less degenerate side won that war. He was also quite happy to live in Britain (and for a few years in the United States, which he did not enjoy) rather than in the drab misery of the Soviet Union. But, like Solzhenitsyn, whom he admired, he saw that the West and the East had made the same mistake. Each "culture," if we may dignify the masses of the West or the collectives of the East with that name, was based upon vulgar materialism. One form was, surely, more pleasant and less obviously inhumane than the other, but it amounted to the same thing in the end: a heap of broken stones, and babbling incoherence. The account of the Tower of Babel, so concise, is the story of communist Russia, Nazi Germany, the British Empire, and the United States — if we have indeed no firmer foundation than the pursuit of power, wealth, and prestige. The builders of Babel wanted to make "a name" for themselves: and I defy the greatest novelist of our age to pack as much insight into two little words, as our sacred author has done.
We must read the Tower beside the story of Abram, who dwelt in Ur of the Chaldees, and was called by God to leave his home and kindred, that God might make of him a great nation, and that all peoples everywhere should be blessed in him. What is the difference?
For one thing, Abram is called to leave the New York, the London, the Moscow of his day. He leaves the great empire of Babylon. He departs from the shadow of the Tower. Even his kindred, the bestowers of whatever prestige he might enjoy as a respected member of a large clan, he must leave behind. God will make of him a great nation: the greatness is in God's gift, not in Abram's attainment. "Unless the Lord build the house," says the Psalmist, "they labor in vain that build it." The rest of Abram's story (soon to be called Ab-raham, Father of Many) is too long to deal with here. But several general observations are in order. Abraham is not Gilgamesh, conqueror of the cedar forest and pilgrim to the land of immortality. He is not Odysseus, man of many wiles, who fought on the windy plains of Troy. He is not Priam, with his fifty sons and fifty daughters. He is not Nimrod, mighty hunter, or Lamech, boastful murderer. He is, by outward appearances, a rather ordinary old man, whose principal preoccupation is that his aged wife Sarah has borne him no children. He does not seek the Legend. He seeks what Muggeridge called Life: a realm of quiet music, darkness, self-denial, suffering, and sanity. That is, Abraham is called again and again to leave behind the most precious thing in his possession: his own self. The way of Abraham, the way of faith, cuts athwart the way of the world, just as the man himself traveled across one land after another, always essentially the stranger in a strange country. His story is trivial, in the world's eyes. And yet it is the essential story. It is the story of the Hebrew people, the Church, every prophet and every saint, and every muddling ordinary fellow casting an eye away from the Babel of his time. And note the astounding fulfillment. The promise of this ancient text has come to pass: in Abraham all peoples have been blessed. Every empire the world has ever known has been reduced to dust. Father Abraham abides. The God of Abraham has made it so. ACKNOWLEDGEMENT Anthony Esolen. "The Key that Fits the Lock, Part Six." The Catholic Thing (September 26, 2012).

Helio Castroneves escaped serious injury in IndyCar's Saturday morning practice session at Mid-Ohio in Lexington, Ohio, when his steering wheel hit his left wrist after contact in turn two..
X-rays were negative, although the hand is swollen.
IndyCar said the Team Penske driver has been cleared to participate in the rest of the event.
The incident occurred when Castroneves' car struck Mike Conway's from behind. The contact wasn't much, but it was enough to flip the wheel.
"Unfortunately when Conway was coming out of the pits, he didn't know where to go," Castroneves said. "He was trying to help me but it ended up hurting me because he was chasing one line to give me room. Everywhere I would pull, it ended up being the line he would take to help.
"It's one of those instances where it's better to keep your line and not try to help each other. I didn't have enough time to brake and I hit him on the back and the steering knob was kind of like whiplash and I hit my hand. Thank God it's not broken. It's just a bruise."
Charlie Kimball is sitting out this event after a spin in testing last week snapped his steering wheel back against his right hand. He broke a bone below his right pinkie finger. Giorgio Pantano is driving his Ganassi Racing car this weekend.

Fun with S&T's Interactive Sky Chart
Our star-charting Java applet is a powerful learning tool masquerading as a fun observing aid.
One of the challenges of publishing an astronomy magazine for a global readership is that we don't all see the same sky. Most obvious are the different constellations visible from the middle latitudes of the Northern and Southern Hemispheres, where most people live. This is a consequence of our living on a giant ball of rock. Relative to the stars, "up" for me in Massachusetts is "down" for a fellow astronomer in southern Chile. Although we're in the same time zone and might both be using our telescopes at the same moment, the stars over my head are below my counterpart's horizon, and vice versa. That's why we print two evening sky charts each month, one for 40° north latitude and another for 35° south.
There's a further complication caused by Earth's daily spin: the constellations visible from a given location are constantly changing, with new ones rising in the east as others set in the west. That's why we print dates and times on our star charts. Finally, the naked-eye planets don't stay put. This is especially true of Venus, which moves across a large swath of sky each month. We compromise by plotting the position of the planets for midmonth.
The bottom line is that unless you live at exactly 40° north or 35° south, and unless you restrict your stargazing to midmonth at exactly the time for which your hemisphere's chart is plotted, what you see in the sky won't quite match what's on the map. Veteran amateur astronomers know this instinctively and make mental adjustments with little effort. But beginners do not, and trying to learn the constellations with charts that don't match the sky faithfully can be extremely frustrating.

Elisabeth Tova Bailey lives on the
Then a friend brought her a little pot of violets, dug from the leafy loam outside Elisabeth's studio, in which the friend had placed a single woodland snail. And this small humble snail ended up becoming Elisabeth's companion, guide, and in a sense alter ego for a year. She moved the snail to a terrarium and made it a water dish out of the shell of a blue mussel. She boned up on snail nutrition and began feeding it pieces of portobello mushroom. She observed the snail (which, thankfully, she refrained from naming) closely, read botanical and biological tomes, pored through philosophy, haiku, memoir and early 1900's hygeine gazettes looking for references to snails.
One of my favorite chapters was the one entitled "Marvelous Spirals." "Even when my snail was asleep, I loved to gaze at the beautiful spiral of its shell. It was a tiny, brilliant accomplishment of architecture, and because the radius of the spiral increases exponentially as it progresses, it fits the definition of a logarithmic or an equiangular spiral. Also known as the marvelous spiral"...
She notes the many similarities between her and her snail: the pace at which they move; the way they're both having to adapt to changed environments. As the book progressed, I was afraid the snail would die: instead, it laid several clutches of eggs (snails are hermaphroditic, with a gestation period of 6-8 months) and gave birth to 118 baby snails.

Five years ago I spent my birthday on a roof in New Orleans' Lower Ninth Ward. I didn't know anything about roofing—I'd hesitate to say that I know much about it now—but this didn't stop a kid from Habitat for Humanity from handing me a hammer and pointing to the roof.
He said, "Just don't fall. That would be bad."
By 10:30 a.m. on volunteer day our motley crew of five had shingled our first roof. That afternoon we mounted insulation, painted walls, hung drywall, and did whatever else was needed for people truly in need.
So how did I end up on the roof? The American Academy of Ophthalmology was the first conference to re-commit to New Orleans after Katrina, and the circumstances inspired the AAO's first partnership with Habitat for Humanity. At the time, I was overseeing jointly sponsored CME at the Academy. Instantly I knew this was something I wanted to be a part of.
What's stopping you?
The two biggest barriers to volunteering are a "lack of time and passion," as Sundeen et al. wrote in their 2007 article on perceived barriers to volunteering in Nonprofit Management and Leadership. The real secret, the one you learn only after you get involved, is that these "reasons" are baseless.
Think about it this way: Most of us who plan medical meetings are constantly trying to staff committees. Organizations serving our communities are in the same position; there's plenty of work to go around. Some groups won't be right for you. You may not feel like you're making enough of an impact, or you might hate working with the rest of a committee. That's OK. Once you identify yourself as a volunteer in your mind, you'll seek out new avenues for engagement and find organizations that fit. Begin by looking for organizations that align with your values, and don't be afraid to walk away if the relationship isn't right.
Finding your passion can be difficult; it took a national disaster to get me engaged. There are a lot of people who want to do something but don't know how to start. The truth is that it doesn't really matter—the trick is to just pick a place and start. You can figure out the rest as you go.
Once you find the right group, you'll realize why "lack of time" is an excuse, not a reason not to get involved. Professional engagement not only strengthens your knowledge, but it also opens doors you'd never have even known existed otherwise. Personal volunteerism bolsters your values by supporting your passions. I've realized that I can't afford not to be involved.
Brian Thompson, assistant director of training and development at the American Society for Gastrointestinal Endoscopy, explains it this way: "I find that by being involved, I've gained a wealth of knowledge. There are times when I have felt overwhelmed with everything going on; I'm currently involved with the Alliance for Continuing Education in the Health Professions Almanac, the Medical Specialty Society Education Committee, and the Alliance Award Committee. I'm thankful that I was given the opportunity, but it took time to get used to these responsibilities and to figure out how to best manage my time. I recently accepted a new position and had to learn the duties of my new job while maintaining my responsibilities with the Alliance.
"It was hard juggling everything at once," he says. "I had to think about what I wanted out of my volunteerism and then put together a game plan for how to accomplish this. Moving forward, I put aside a couple hours a week just to focus on my volunteerism, which has proven to be well worth it."
Build Your Community
You know that guy who can strike up a conversation with anyone about anything? I'm not that guy. I'm terrible at networking. As an introvert, I lack the internal mechanism that drives people to seek out personal connections, but I can't get enough of ideas.
This is an important distinction. Extroverts talk to people about things, while introverts talk about things with people. This fundamental difference in the way people approach a subject is responsible for a lot of awkward moments. As Susan Cain, author of Quiet: The Power of Introverts in a World That Can't Stop Talking, says, "Introverts living under the Extroversion Ideal are like women in a man's world, discounted because of a trait that goes to the core of who they are. Extroversion is an enormously appealing personality style, but we've turned it into an oppressive standard to which most of us feel we must conform."
The good news is that you can overcome this awkwardness when volunteering. As 2012 ACEHP President Damon Marquis has said, "The deep-down secret—I am actually fairly socially introverted. Volunteering allows me to meet people, get engaged, and have an impact." Volunteerism gives extroverts people to network with, while providing introverts with a topic to get excited about. What is created by this marriage of approaches is a community, and communities are powerful things.
Communities and social networks help shape who we are. As University of California, San Diego, Professor James Fowler says, "Your friends who live far away have just as big an impact on your behavior as friends who live next door."
What you find in a volunteer group is a cadre of motivated experts. It's OK if you don't feel like an expert. The social pressure will help you get up to speed fast.
Personal Development
Have you ever been blindsided by a new rule or regulation that affected your job? What if, instead of being caught off guard, you were in a position to explain the rules to other people? Volunteers are given access to cutting-edge information and the insights of fellow experts. They're in a position to influence the narrative by crafting messages, policies, or guidelines with industrywide impact.
As Art Arellano, professional education manager at the AAGL (originally known as the American Association of Gynecologic Laparoscopists), explains, "Now more than ever, you have to be self-generating, and I believe volunteering provides the opportunity to address issues we encounter in CME. I attended the Alliance Conference in 2010 where by chance I met Darlene Oliver boarding a plane to Los Angeles. Darlene would eventually become the president of the Southern California Medical Education Council and play an integral role in electing me to the board. My experience behind the scenes was invaluable when preparing materials for the ACCME. AAGL had all the elements, I just didn't know how to tell their story ... and now I do."
I've had a similar experience. I recently joined a committee and was confronted with the fact that I was under-informed about the Physician Payment Sunshine Act. Perhaps this wouldn't have been a problem if it wasn't the job of this group to draft a formal response to the measure.
The social pressure and responsibility forced me outside of my comfort zone. I began to read everything that I could find and call those who had written similar opinion pieces. After just a few weeks, my knowledge had advanced considerably, but the thought of disappointing my peers is what motivated me to action and set my expectations higher than they would have been if I didn't know they were relying on me.
Keep on Pushing
All it takes is a little push. Maybe that push comes from inside you. More often it comes from a mentor and is usually based upon what you have to offer the community (which can be enough of a reason). Wherever it comes from, it has benefited me and those I know in ways I never would have imagined. It can do the same for you.
If I haven't yet convinced you in this article that giving back is a good idea, well, you should see the earlier drafts. This is the first article I've written for a magazine. To help myself, I worked on my writing, reached out to colleagues, and studied articles by journalists I admire. I would not have done these things had I not committed to a deadline and had my idea accepted. It's amazing what you learn when you venture outside your comfort zone.
When he's not volunteering, Jacob Coverstone serves as director of education with the International Society for Magnetic Resonance in Medicine. He also won the ACEHP 2012 Great Ideas Award, Member Specialty Section, for his contributions in the field of continuing medical education.

Club remembers those who have passed away in 2012.
A fan mosaic displaying the letters 'EFC' was held aloft at Goodison Park on Sunday as Everton paid tribute to those who passed away in 2012.
The capacity-crowd also observed a moment's applause as the Club remembered fans, as well as former heroes such as Gary Ablett, Gordon West and Dennis Stevens.
Defender Ablett, who spent four years at Goodison Park and also had a spell at Liverpool, passed away on New Year's Day 2012 after a long battle with illness. He was just 46.
West, a two-time league winning goalkeeper of the 1960s and 1970s, died on 10 June aged 69, while Stevens, another star of the '60s, passed away just five days before Christmas aged 79.
Ahead of kick off, supporters in the Park End stand held up pieces of coloured card to form the mosaic, which can be seen in the picture above.
To the Evertonians we lost in 2012, we will never forget you.

T-minus 20 days until the long awaited return of "Arrested Development" ... and this weekend, David Cross gave us a little teaser about what we can expect in the new eps -- tears, laughter and diarrhea.
Clearly, Buster will shed the tears ... and the laughter belongs to Gob ... but who will have the diarrhea????
Whatever, doesn't even matter ... just give us some chicken dance ... and frozen bananas ... and drunk Lucille ... and cut-off jean shorts ... and some analrapist ... and some Scott Baio.
I've never understood the fascination with Arrested Development. It simply wasn't that great.
David is very talented, a very underrated actor. I liked AD before, hope this lives up to what's been promised.
'Would have helped tremendously if any of those "funny" lines had a context. Now I know why I never watched the show when it first aired.
Arrested Development was fan****ingtastic... if its over Ur head~ it just is... its ok..U may find many things in life that way. No f*cking better attorneys name then Bob Loblaw...I died when I heard it...luckily I was resurrected by chicken dancing, or whatever trickery they call it. "Illusion, Michael! A trick is something a whore does for money."
I'm so farking sick of hearing about this ungodly overrated show that got more chances than other shows that were much better, just because Opie was attached to it.
What makes AD great is that its a joke almost every line! It touches on in a humorous way mankind's narcissism
Can't wait to see Arrested Development? Check out the Do***entary w/ fun cameo's from the cast via the link provided. http://cinemacho.com/arrested-development-do***entary-trailer/
If a line was actuallly funny it wouldn't require "context": This show really sux. If any show should be brought back it would be "Better Off Ted".. laugh-outloud funny every episode.

Don't miss these top stories:
Two of our personal-finance columnists take a look at the Affordable Care Act from different perspectives today.
Kristen Gerencher reports on a study that shows health insurers may be forking over $1.3 billion in rebates this summer. A provision in the health-reform law means rebates to consumers whose health plans have exceeded the limits of a formula designed to ensure that premium payments go mostly to pay for actual medical care. Consumers and businesses in Texas and Florida will see the largest rebates, with $186 million and $149 million coming back, respectively. Also today, Andrea Coombes writes in her Ways and Means column that if the Supreme Court declares the health-reform law unconstitutional, it could really upend numerous tax provisions. Who stands to benefit from that? Well, the richest Americans — the top 0.1% — would avoid about $125,000 more in taxes per year on average if the health law is overturned.
And finally, Robert Powell writes in his Your Portfolio column that investors should be aware of, and prepared for, both inflation and deflation pressures.

Rates on 30-year mortgage fall to 3.88%

Health insurers could rebate $1.3 bln
This summer, your health-insurance costs could go down for a change. A provision in the federal health-reform law stands to return big bucks to customers whose health plans have exceeded the limits of a formula meant to ensure that most premium dollars go to pay for medical care instead of overhead and profit.

Inflation or deflation? Be ready for either
Neither an inflationist nor a deflationist be. That, to mangle the well-known quotation, sums up the view of some investment professionals who are struggling to make sense of current market conditions.

Health law's demise would save big bucks, for some
Whatever their opinion of the health-care reform law, wealthy Americans have a lot of money riding on the Supreme Court's coming decision on the law's constitutionality. And taxpayers of all income brackets could see tax laws upended by the Supreme Court's decision.

my vote is for the kansas city chiefs. they showed at the end of the year that they are a legitimate team by playing great against all teams they played, including being the only team to beat the packers. They lost matt cassell, eric berry, tony moeaki, and jamaal charles to injury for the season. Also, next season, they will have a competent coach. With another year having a high pick, the chiefs can continue to add to their young core. i think they are a very young promising team with great potential. really good defense, really good secondary, dline full of top draft picks (although somewhat overdrafted... tyson jackson) they have a great receiving core and an explosive back. their offensive line is ok, and their depth at rb is meh, but they very likely draft decastro, reiff, martin, or trent richardson to make one of those units much better. their qb is not great, which is my main knock on them. but looking at the chiefs up and down, they are an extremely good team and they seem to really like crennel... they do frighten me
I still think SD is the toughest. KC needs to improve the QB position. I really can't predict this division to well though. Last 2 years, the bottom from the year before wins the AFC West, so by that standard, I guess KC would.
You're talking to me all wrong... It's the wrong tone. You do it again and I'll stab you in the face with a soldering iron. Hey, tell me, does your mother sew? BOOM. Get her to sew that!
give carson a full offseason under his belt and then throw in mcfadden, idk how u cant say it's the raiders
I wouldn't shock me. I'd give the nod for the Raiders over the Chiefs personally, but that's just me. I don't see a clear cut favorite though.
You're talking to me all wrong... It's the wrong tone. You do it again and I'll stab you in the face with a soldering iron. Hey, tell me, does your mother sew? BOOM. Get her to sew that!
pssshhh we are goin 6-0 in our division next year, but the raiders might come close to beating us lol jk
as the records show, all the teams were fairly close. the chiefs had the most significant injuries overall and had the toughest schedule of all of the teams. Chiefs are really going to be dangerous for a bit. i would have pick the raiders but theyre cleaning house, again, and the lack of draft picks really will hurt their ability to fill in their holes on defense with quality players imo. but this division is a toss up as any division in football.

San Diego seems like the biggest challenge. They have the most talented team in our division, but they underachieve. If they figure it out next year, they'll be tough to beat to the title. But I know the Broncos will be even better next year, so the issue doesn't really concern me all that much.
Raiders without question. The staff they are building and the talent they have, don't be surprised if they are in for a deep playoff run
lol, please' top 10 p4p- Mayweather/Ward/Bradley/Marquez/Maidana/Pacquiao/Rigondeaux/Froch/Martinez/Golovkin

"We are chasing greatness" Mark Jackson 3/7/14
Chargers no doubt....Rivers just had an off season this year, they went from 4-8 to end the season at 8-8 and helping us into the playoffs! Watch out for the chargers next year. Cheifs will be right there with the raiders as well. Its shaping up to be a tough division. All the teams are getting good. Im excited that the broncos arent in re build mode as we all thought they would be this year.
chargers still have norv turner so im not worried
Im not worried cause we will be at least 4a games better next year then we were this year so that makes us 12-4, and no one else in the division will have more then 10, wins next year.
But if I had to pick one that might challenge us it'd be the chargers they can be tough the radiers are who they are witch is dysfunctional and the chiefs don't have enough talent to challenge us not say that they can't get lucky and beat us but I personally think we have the best team in our division
Broncos fan since 1989
It'll take 11 wins or more to win the West next year, I think we can all agree on that.

On Marriage, LGBT Shouldn't Look For Help From Feds
Government doesn't have a record for taking public positions on court's equality cases
You know how interracial marriage and gay sex was illegal in some states until the Supreme Court ruled against bans on them? Yeah, well, you might be surprised to know that the federal government took no position when those cases came to the court. That fact is consistent with the rhetorical dance President Barack Obama has done on the issue of states rights. In Obama's public endorsement of same sex marriage last year, he was quite vague on whether he'd ask his solicitor general to take a position on the upcoming case against California's ban on same-sex marriage. One of the lawyer's challenging Prop 8 at SCOTUS said Solicitor General Donald B. Verrilli Jr. was noncommittal after a meeting last month about the government's stance on the case. Verrilli is expected to meet with defenders of the gay marriage ban in a few days. Court arguments on the case will be heard on March 26. So, for those wanting the government to sink some teeth into the president's support of marriage equality, speak now or forever hold your peace. (New York Times)

Zone Resources Inc. announced that it has acquired an option to earn a 100% interest in the Lac Edgar and the Girard West Iron Properties, consisting of over 23,176 acres, located in Nunavik, northern Quebec.
The properties contain a minimum of 6 zones of iron mineralization, that were identified in historic work completed by the Quebec Labrador Development Company Limited, between 1947 and 1960. The zones of iron mineralization are located over a length of 19 kilometers and a width of up to 5 kilometers. Outcrop is limited and overburden is up to 25 feet (7.6 meters) deep. As a result, the property was not extensively worked during the period that the major iron mines of the Labrador Trough were developed near Schefferville and Labrador City.
Totaling 177 claims and over 20,512 acres is the Lac Edgar claim block. Drill hole ZR11-09, the first and only hole to date on the Lac Edgar claim block, intersected an iron formation with an average of 35.64% Fe over 137.00 metres.
Drill hole ZR11-09 was drilled at -50 degrees along a 9 kilometre long airborne magnetic anomaly. It was collared in magnetite-rich iron formation at the base of casing at 3.00 metres. Iron contents of individual samples ranged up to a maximum 45.06% Fe, with the previously mentioned average of 35.64% Fe over the 137.00 metre intercept. A second, narrower zone of iron formation averaging 29.01% Fe of 10.45 metres was encountered 86 metres below the 137 metre intersection. The dip of the main iron zone in proximity to drill hole ZR11-09 is approximately vertical based on core angles. Drill hole ZR11-09 was collared in iron formation, and therefore did not intersect the full width of the main zone.
The magnetic survey previously flown over the Lac Edgar claim group outlined numerous magnetic anomalies: the aggregate length of all the magnetic anomalies, believed to be caused by magnetite iron formation (with amplitude over 1,000 nT), is approximately 50 kilometres in length and has the potential for Direct Shipping Ore ("DSO")
Totaling 23 claims and over 2,664 acres is the Girard West property. Drill hole ZR11-08, the first and only hole to date on the Girard Lake West claim block, intersected an iron formation with an average of 35.77% Fe over 243.00 metres.
Drill hole ZR11-08 was drilled at -50 degrees on a 5 kilometre long airborne magnetic anomaly in the western part of the Girard claim group. It was collared in magnetite-rich iron formation at the base of casing at 6.00 metres. The iron zone continued for 243.00 metres. Iron contents of individual samples over core lengths of between 1.50 and 2.00 metres ranged from 23.49% Fe up to a maximum 45.55% Fe, with an average of 35.77% Fe over the entire 243.00 metre intersection.
The Lac Edgar and Girard West properties were explored between 1949 and 1954 by Quebec Labrador Development Company, which held a concession over the area; it was geologically mapped in considerable detail. Trenching and drilling were also carried out However only partial drill results are available, while there are records of trench sampling and assays.
Nine showings or zones were discovered on the Lac Edgar and Girard West properties. Of these, there is some information available on three, while the other six are simply noted on the geological map.
McDonald Showing (Lac Edgar)
GM2160A states that:
"A showing known as the McDonald was discovered, having a rust area of over one and one half miles and widths exceeding 500 feet."
Four trenches totalling 2600' and 26 test pits were completed on the north end of this zone where the overburden was lightest and a minimum of water was encountered.
High iron assays were secured but the silica content also was high, but as work preceded south the silica content decreases. However, in this work, quartzites were encountered and test pits were then put down to determine the strike, widths and dips, but as yet this work has not been carried through to a definite conclusion."
The following table gives a summary of the trench results.

Cons Best Uses
Comments about RadioShack Standard Phone Plug: Don't hesitate to pick up a supply of these. Quality is on par with Switchcraft, and at a several dollar less price point. Added bonus (and should be a requirement on all metal barrel plugs) is the spring strain relief on the end. This adds to the ruggedness of the package--and the alleviation of many headaches in the future due to fatigue damaged wire at the entry point.
Cons Best Uses
Comments about RadioShack Standard Phone Plug: Well Made. Heavy all metal construction. Comes with inside plastic insulator tube, good wound wire strain relief and solder terminals with drilled holes. If you make your own stereo or balanced cables or you just need to replace an end this is a good unit. You could pay the same for a cheap jack with a plastic cover and no real strain relief.

I'd think "O" would leave it on…he loved "the 300″ or "Ode to a Grecian Ab" as those dudes were hot (or so I've heard as a straight male, I don't know about those things and overheard it from some women in the office) and the guy that looked like "O" in extra bling had a million slaves willing to carry his 7 foot plus butt anywhere while he wanted.
Just sayin'

Dagny, No that other guys hips were wider then his shoulders, shave his facial hair and he looked like a hair dresser and while he was giving his little you tube rant his eyes looked like a 5 year old that was doing something wrong but just couldn't stop themselves.
