First Pitch: April 20
Homer hat trick for Granderson
Published: Apr 20, 2012
» Get updates via Sportsmail
1. Curtis Granderson, OF, Yankees. Granderson went 5-for-5 with three home runs and four RBIs in the Yankees' 7-6 win against the Twins. He now has six homers, all coming in the last eight games, with 14 runs, 10 RBIs and a .283 average. Atlanta's Freddie Freeman gets an honorable mention here for going 3-for-5 with a pair of dingers and five RBIs last night in Arizona.
2. Vance Worley, SP, Phillies. The right-hander dominated the Padres for seven shutout innings Thursday, limiting them to four hits and three walks while fanning a career-high 11 batters. Worley lowered his ERA to 2.37 ERA in what was his first victory of the season. Felix Hernandez (8 IP, 12 Ks), Jason Hammel (6 IP, 10 Ks) and Mike Minor (8 IP, 9 Ks) also had high-strikeout games Thursday.

Storage experts are forecasting that consumer electronics will account for a fifth of all hard drive sales by 2008, according to a report by PC Advisor.
While worldwide sales of hard drives for consumer electronics products totaled just 5.8 million units in 2002, storage market analysis company Coughlin Associates expects that number to expand to 84.4 million by 2008, according to the report.
Demand for personal video recorders (PVR) will reportedly be driven by an addiction to TV, accounting for nearly one-half of all consumer hard drive shipments.
The once-exclusive domain of the analogue VHS tape format, personal video recorders (PVRs) based around hard disk drives are said to be making inroads into living rooms alongside other hard drive-based devices such as the Microsoft Xbox games console and various audio jukebox and MP3 player products, the report said.
According to research analysts Datamonitor, 104 million European homes will have digital TV set-top boxes by 2007, of which more than a 10th (14 million) will sport hard-disk-based PVR capability.

JONESBORO, AR (KAIT) - A dog tested positive for rabies over the weekend in Conway. According to the Arkansas Department of Health, rabies cases are on the rise in Arkansas.
This year the amount of animals found with rabies tripled. Arkansas
usually averages about 50 rabies cases a year but this year they have already reached 150 cases.
"Rabies can
be non-seasonal but we do tend to associate it more with the warmer summer
months, spring, summer, fall because that's when the wild animals are more
active," said Dr. Everett Rogers with Jonesboro Family Pet Hospital.
Rogers said although Craighead County hasn't
had a rabies case in several years, kids should not approach stray animals.
"The big
things are be cautious about approaching a stray animal whether it is a wild
animal," he said. "Unless you
know the animal, it is very important to stay away from them because when we
try to be friends to them they don't perceive that sometimes."
The popular
carriers of rabies are typically wild animals.
"We're very concerned about the skunk whose
our primary carrier, raccoons, foxes, coyotes and bats can also be carriers of
the virus," Rogers said.
He said it's unusual to have many rabies cases during this time of year.
"The rabies virus like a lot of other diseases
cycles within the wildlife population which are the carriers of it," he explained. "Some years
as the virus builds up in that population there's just more exposure."
Rogers said
although an animal may look harmless, petting can often lead to biting.
"The vast majority of cases are due to bite
wound transmission," Rogers shared. "They will
drool, they try to drink and they act like they're choking and water will come
out of their mouth."

I purchased this necklace for a graduation present. It is so cute and the recipient loved it!!
I ran across this necklace and knew it was for me as soon as I laid eyes on it! My favorite Bible scripture in I Corinthians 13:13 - Faith, Hope & Love - so I had to have it! I have added some beads and a small cross to the very good quality silver chain to personalize it and I wear it all the time. It is my Touchstone! Thank you and God Bless!
Each rectangle has a word engraved on it. I only thought it would be larger, but I should have read the description! I wear it everyday.

PHOENIX - Reliever J.J. Putz has agreed to a $13.5 million, two-year contract with the Arizona Diamondbacks, a deal that adds a $7 million salary for 2014.
Arizona exercised Putz's $6.5 million option on Oct. 20 and he would have been eligible for free agency after the 2013 season.
The right-hander, 35, had 32 saves in 37 chances and a 2.82 ERA last year, converting 19 straight save chances from late May through August. He had a 0.84 ERA from June 23 to October.
Putz has a 33-31 record with 183 saves in 514 big league games for Seattle (2003-08), the New York Mets (2009), the Chicago White Sox (2010) and Arizona (2011-12).
A's extend manager
OAKLAND, Calif. - Bob Melvin received a two-year contract extension Monday that will take the Oakland manager through the 2016 season.
"To get an extension like this ... makes you feel better about doing your job," said Melvin, a former Diamondbacks skipper, 51, who was voted the AL's top manager after leading the Athletics to a West division title.
Oakland ended a five-year stretch without a winning record or playoff berth, finishing last season 94-68, losing to Detroit 3-2 in the AL division series. The A's did it with a payroll of $59.5 million - lowest in the majors - and 12 rookies.
Interpreters OK'd
NEW YORK - Interpreters may make mound trips with managers and pitching coaches this year.
Baseball owners approved the rules change when they met last week in Arizona. The change, which would be used to assist pitchers not fluent in English, now goes to the players' association, which also must OK it for the change to start this year.
Inside pitch
• Former major league shortstop Enzo Hernandez was found dead in his home Sunday in an apparent suicide in the eastern Venzuelan town of El Tigre. The 63-year-old played for the San Diego Padres between 1971-77 and finished his big league career with the Los Angeles Dodgers in 1978.
• Toronto outfielder Colby Rasmus, Baltimore pitcher Tommy Hunter and Oakland catcher George Kottaras agreed to one-year contracts, leaving 133 players eligible to file for salary arbitration today.
Rasmus gets $4,675,000 under Monday's agreement, Hunter $1.82 million and Kottaras $1 million.
• Tampa Bay catcher David Wendt and free-agent catcher Bryan Henry have been suspended for 50 games each following positive tests under baseball's minor league drug program.

ANDERSONVILLE (WATE) - The Anderson County Sheriff's Department is looking for the man suspected of robbing an elderly man in his own garage.
Deputies say the 83-year-old man was working in his garage on Andersonville Highway Tuesday just after noon, asking if he had a belt for a Ford tractor.
When the victim said no, the suspect then pulled a small handgun from his pocket, saying, "I don't need a tractor belt. I want your money."
The victim told deputies the suspect felt his pockets for his wallet and removed both wallets from his pants. One contained approximately $90 in cash. The other had a $100 bill.
The suspect took all the cash as well as the keys to the victim's 2000 Buick, told the victim to sit down in the garage, and said the victim should get his car back "soon."
The victim was not injured.
Deputies found the car a short distance away on Indian Gap Road, but there was no sign of the suspect.
The suspect was wearing a dark green jacket, dirty blue jeans and a black toboggan.

CATEGORIES Deals, Fandom, Movies, CinematicalThe original Buffy was a silly early '90s flick featuring Kristy Swanson, dreamy Luke Perry as her BF Pike, Rutger Hauer as the bad vamp about town Lothos, a post-Pee Wee Paul Reubens as one of his henchmen, and Donald Sutherland as a told-ya-so! dude named Merrick who warned her she was a predestined kicker of vampire ass. Blink-and-miss-it cameos include Hilary Swank, Ben Affleck, gossip columnist Liz Smith, David Arquette, and Ricki Lake. Really.
Now Buffy is getting a 21st century transfusion with help from the original director Fran Rubel Kuzui and producer Kaz Kuzui to create "what is being labeled a remake or relaunch, but not a sequel or prequel," according to Hollywood Reporter. So with that very oblique description in mind, it looks like this will be a sort of different incarnation of Buffy -- a different vampire "warrior" for a different generation. One with "franchise potential," of course. The Kuzuis are working with Vertigo Entertainment, aka Roy Lee and Doug Davison, which is responsible for many US remakes of Asian films like The Grudge, Dark Water, The Eye, and upcoming adaptations of Death Note, the Spielberg-Smith vehicle Oldboy, and Battle Royale. They're also remaking Creepshow.
Joss Whedon wrote the script for the original Buffy, although he's more famous for his feminist-y take on it in the long-running Sarah Michelle Gellar series. He will, however, not be involved with the new Buffy. Good luck to whomever they're bringing in to revamp this iconic chick because she or he has some big shoes to fill. Or it's entirely possible one of the many, many Buffy-philes might have a go at 'em with a big, pointy stake. Either way.
As far Joss? Well, Dr. Horrible's Twitter only says "Oy... http://bit.ly/gwmRt" If anyone would like to confirm if this is Joss's real Twitter account or not, we're all ears.

iOS claims 65% of mobile web marketshare
NetMarketShare has released its latest report on Internet usage by mobile devices, and not only has iOS remained on top for Internet usage, but Apple's OS has grown its lead up to 65% of total mobile Internet traffic. In just the last month, usage on iOS went up by 3%, and the year-over-year figures line up to almost 15% growth.
That's incredible -- it's a sign that not only is Apple selling more and more iOS devices (including those new Retina iPads, which certainly made up a nice chunk of this new Internet browsing), but that users are depending on them more and more for connecting to and interacting with the Internet. It's also worth noting that iOS users are generally heavy 'net users as well. Even though there are more Android phones out there, iOS users are browsing enough to keep the totals in their favor and growing.

Milwaukee Bucks point guard Brandon Knight will miss the remainder of the team's season opener against the New York Knicks after suffering a strained hamstring in the first quarter, the team announced. He only played two minutes during his debut with the franchise after coming over from the Detroit Pistons during the summer.
Acquired in the deal that sent Brandon Jennings to the Motor City, Knight started at point guard Wednesday night for Milwaukee. He was joined in the lineup by O.J. Mayo, Caron Butler, Khris Middleton and Larry Sanders, leaving the young center as the only Bucks starter on opening night with past experience in Milwaukee.
Knight didn't do much in his short appearance before heading to the locker room. In two minutes, he recorded one turnover and one defensive rebound before being replaced by rookie guard Nate Wolters. With primary backup Luke Ridnour also sidelined due to injury, Wolters and Gary Neal should see a boost in playing time Wednesday.

Port Of Spain, T...
This is a maxi dress I made using some lovely cotton fabric obtained from fabricmart.com. It's a Marc Jacobs ombre-like fabric of lovely quality and at a great price. I was quite suprised when I got the fabric thinking the pattern repeat would be wider. The pattern however prepeated every 15 inches, so I had to be a little inovative. I cut out panels of the pattern gathered them to the tops and attached them in three layers. I made the bodice using the contour bust dress free pattern. It's a great and simple pattern……..I only needed to tweak it slightly for my smaller bust.

How to Make Moist Banana Bread
The difference between good banana bread and great banana bread is how moist your bread is. Overripe bananas and a little overnight patience are keys to success. See why!
Moist banana bread melts in your mouth and the great ones are over-the-top moist. The real secret to banana bread is one of convenience and recycling. Use the bananas that your kids won't even get near. You know, the ones with dark mushy spots. These over-ripe bananas have fully developed sugars and soft texture that make the best quick breads, cakes and muffins. Now, the second secret may be hard to handle for those of us who are impatient and love snacking on warm, out-of-the-oven banana bread. Bad news here, but let that banana bread sit before you slice. In fact, wrap it in plastic wrap while it's still a little warm and let it sit overnight. Bananas do their best work in this warm, tropical environment. It'll be worth the wait when you sink your teeth into that moist banana bread with big time flavor.

In just three short years, evolving from a humble website started by Tina Price, the Creative Talent Network has grown into a hugely successful annual event in Burbank, California. Dedicated to animation artists and the creative element in our community, the CTN Animation eXpo has become the premiere convention in the industry. The photo above shows the line that formed almost an hour before the expo got opened its doors and got under way. It had doubled in size by 12:00 noon, when it got under way. The entrance is way off to the right of this photo. There's a few more pictures I took available to see at this link to the Forum topic, including an enhanced view of the shot above. One thing is certain. The expo has already outgrown this venue at the Marriott in Burbank. Wonder how they'll handle it next year. CTNX is running this weekend, November 18 - 20. If you're in town and you've got a chance to attend, by all means head on over there, meet great artists, make new friends and have some fun.
This went up on YouTube yesterday and already has half a million views. As expected, the highly anticipated "Brave" is looking pretty darn good so far. The forum topic for this trailer can be found here. To see some development artwork for the film follow this link. Brave is scheduled for release June 22, 2012.
Nearly 25 years ago, Benson & Hedges, the cigarette company, aired a couple of very impressive commercials for the day that still hold up in our age. In 1987 as it is currently, cigarette commercials were not allowed to be broadcast in the US. These two were aired internationally.
Produced by Omnibus / Abel Animation, check out the state of the art CGI at a time when the emerging technology was still in its infancy. I've assembled a series of videos and links concerning what Omnibus /Abel were doing during the decade of the 1980s that you'll find historically significant and interesting. Check them out here.
A company that produces paints is a natural for delving into the arts and it's especially exciting when animation is the focus of their commercial messages. Such is the case with Sherwin-Williams. They've been sponosring the production of animated commercials for a long time, and the ones that have recently been airing are very impressive and beautiful to watch. I'm developing the Forum topic with several examples of these commercials.
The one featured here is a fine example of the many that are available for viewing. This particular paint chips themed campaign was developed in the US at McKinney of Durham, North Carolina. The animation was produced at Buck in New York City, and the music hails from Beacon Street Studios of Venice, California.
There's a new website available for students looking to get hooked up with a mentor in the Los Angeles area. The Motivarti Mentorship Program was formed to help bridge the gap between students and artists working in LA. The goal is to give aspiring artists all around the nation and the world an opportunity to try and connect with the industry's top professionals. Whether you're hoping to get into visual development, concept design, storyboarding, animation, character design, or even children's book illustration or theme park design, Motivarti.org is striving to gather a variety of mentors just for you. You can access the site through the links provided and also read the communication provided to us by the site's founder, Jackie Huang, at this link to the Forums.

Padres promote Dave Roberts to bench coach, name Jose Valentin as first base coach
Nov 18, 2013, 6:16 PM EDT
The Padres announced this evening that Dave Roberts will serve as bench coach next season while Jose Valentin will replace him as first base coach.
This is a promotion for Roberts, who has served as the first base coach for the club for the past three seasons. He's taking over for Rick Renteria, who was recently hired as manager of the Cubs.
Valentin, who played 16 seasons in the majors, has been the manager of the Padres' Class A affiliate in Fort Wayne for the past two seasons. This will be his first coaching job in the major leagues.
- davidschap - Nov 18, 2013 at 7:11 PM
Oh Dave Roberts and my Red Sox stolen base. Almost 10 years and still the greatest steal in sox history if not the greatest play.
- rje49 - Nov 18, 2013 at 8:52 PM
Without a doubt, the single most important stolen base in baseball history. I can't even think what would be in second place.
- koufaxmitzvah - Nov 18, 2013 at 9:33 PM
The trade that got you Dave Roberts in a deadline deal for a AA outfielder never to be seen in a Dodgers uniform.
Paul DePodesta should have gotten a 2004 Red Sox ring.

- auggie1955 - Nov 19, 2013 at 12:36 AM
I was wondering if Renteria was going to bring Roberts over to the Cubs as a 1st or 3rd base coach, but now that question has been answered.
- stevequinn - Nov 19, 2013 at 12:40 AM
Glad to see Dave Roberts progressing. Hopefully, one day he'll manage.

I wanted to get a concealer that could go on bare skin because I don't wear foundation. The sales lady recommended this product to me in NW 15. It is definitely the right colour for me which is very difficult to find if you have very fair skin. The product does get in the little lines under my eyes, even when I only use a little bit of product. After setting it with powder the concealer doesn't go anywhere but I do have to whipe off the excess product in the lines. The coverage is ok. You can still see some purpleness but it doesn't bother me. I've bought this concealer a year and a half ago and I'm still using the first bottle...a little goes a long way! Now that I'm wearing tinted moisturizer, I think my next concealer will be a little heavier, but I'm still pleased with this one for now.
I got this in NW20 as recommended by the makeup artist to match my NC25 foundation. She also recommended this because I said I was looking for a concealer specifically for the undereye area, and for dark circles; but I also mentioned that I have had big problems with other brands of concealers because they always made my under eye area look incredibly DRY and mind you- I use eye cream so the concealers I've been using are really drying.
I went to try it but absolutely NO COVERAGE at all :( so I'm really disappointed. It also still made the clogged under eye pores/skin show up. So I 'd have to go to another brand that has color correction. I think if you don't have uber dark undereye circles like me, this might work. It is light, and provides light coverage. The doe foot applicator makes it easy to apply and I have to say it is creamy and glides on smooth. Otherwise, if your concern is dark undereye, this is not the right product. I'm returning it.
As i have rather serious dark circles, this product does not give me sufficient coverage. However, applying a correcter before this will do the trick. It will crease if I apply too much but setting it with powder solves it. What I like about this product is that it's really easy to blend and matches well with my skin tone. It does not dry out my under eyes as well.
YSL touche eclat used to be (and still is) my absolute perfect under-eye concealer. I would still use it but the price put me off= £24.50 for 2.5ml , that's disgusting! whereas this is roughly half the price £13.50 for double the product 5ml. I've finally found the answer !
the colour NW15 suits me perfectly, though I would like there to be a little bit more pink in to give it a fleshy colour rather than just being pale. but it does its job of covering up my dark under-eye circles and makes them brighter.
this is the first MAC NW concealer I've tried that has realistic colour and doesn't have a yellow base ! :D
this isn't too thick, infact I'd say it was light/medium coverage. which is ideal for under-eyes. you can't really wear it alone unless you blend it right in because your perfect bright under-eyes will look un-natural against your skin. but with foundation it looks totally natural.
this isn't drying and it never creases. it moisturises the whole time it's on so you skin feels lovely and smooth when you take it off. the first time I wore this and took it off, I thought I still had some on because my eyes felt so smooth.
the applicator and the bottle are cute too :D the bottle is plastic, which is more practical than glass to carry round with you as it won't smash. but it lasts all day so you won't need to carry it round.
I wipe this from the applicator onto my finger then onto my eye, which is enough to cover both eyes. if you use the applicator straight onto your eyes you won't get as much product out of it.
some product does get stuck in the neck of the bottle though, but not much so it's no big deal.
in a nutshell : this is the perfect alternative to YSL touche eclat.
This is truly a gr8 concealer for under the eyes. It's light and moisturizing enough to not leave the undereye area dry, crepey looking.
Packaging resembles a l/g tube ~doe foot wand. Easy to dab on just where you need it. I have dark circles under my eyes, and when just using this to conceal, I do find it doesn't cover them up completely. My darkness still shows through, but I find my undereye area is lighter/ brighter. With a little experimenting, I find that this product works best as an eye brightner rather than concealer. After I have applied foundation to my face & undereye area, I apply a few dots of this concealer under my eyes and blend it out with 217. I set it with MAC Prep and Prime powder, and it leaves my eye area looking more awake / fresh most of the day. It doesn't accentuate dryness or fine lines.
I have used this for blemishes and redness, and this product is just too thin to do any good in those areas. I have tried it as an e/s base to even out eyelids, and it creased on my quickly.
So, if you're looking for a light weight under eye brightener or have slight darkness under your eye, give this concealer a try. Definitely will repurchase.

This is pretty great for concealing dark circles. It covers quite well but does leave a bit of ashiness on me. I normally use my Bobbi Brown corrector underneath to stop that but a MAC MUA told me (after I'd bought it) that I should be using NW concealers for the undereye area instead of NC because the undertones cancel out the colours in undereye circles differently. I wish the MUA who sold me the NC20 had known that!
I still need eye cream under this but at least it doesn't dry into flakes like the Select Cover Up did!
Overall, not bad. Will probably repurchase.
This was my first MAC purchase, and because of this I now I have TONS of MAC products and almost 90% of my money is in the shop!
I do like this, it's really moisturising and natural ,the sad thing is that I am a NW20 for most of MAC products but this was somehow REALLY DARK!
I just use this for the summer...
I would repurchase this in another shade but this does cover up dark circles but not spot guys! but it works well for me cause i don't have any acne or spots or blemishes just dark circles!
so do recommend.
This is just a completely average concealer. Not worth the money I paid for it. I expect so much more from MAC. This concealer doesn't have any lasting power and when put on my under eye area it creases like crazy and well I'm 23 it's not like I have wrinkles. The one thing I do like about it is that it is creamy and moisturizing. I will not repurchase.
I got this in NC45 off ebay, since the MAC counters here in Singapore don't stock concealers beyond NC30/NW35. For reference, I wear Bobbi Brown foundation stick in Warm Honey, which is a pretty close fit.
This concealer unfortunately, is just too orangey for my skintone. I missed out on the Mickey contractor collection released here, for i believe NC44 would have been much better, but oh well.
On the positive side, i love the texture and blendability of this product. Its just so so creamy i swear. Goes on like a dream. Doesnt last very long though, unless you set it. Also oxidises to a darker orange. The shade kind of reminds me of Bobbi Brown's concealer in Golden, with golden being slightly darker. MAC creases far less than BB.
Would i get this again? Nah. For now, i'll probably get a lighter concealer and mix with this.
EDIT: I just had a EUREKA moment. Hah. I'm gona use this to cover my pigmented chin and mouth area first to counter the grey-green colour there. Since orange works to counteract green. Then apply my foundation, which is BB's stick. DONE! Pefect one-tone face. WooHOOO. My coloured sistas out there, TRY THIS!! Esp if you have dark olive/yellow undertones =D
EDIT: For shade reference, MUFE HD foundation in #170 is lighter than this, and Bobbi Brown's foundation stick in Warm Honey is lighter than MUFE =)

After purchasing my first few MAC products I decided I'd head up to the counter and ask for a concealer for my dark circles. As i tend to have dry skin during the colder months they suggested select moisturecover in the shade NC42 (which was dark for me!! UGHHH! Are concealers not meant to be a bit lighter?) My MAC shade is usually NC37/NC40 and it was pretty annoying that they matched me up in a darker shade, which I've found that they do most the time,( not every wants to be extra tanned!!)
Anyways the product itself was nice and mosturising and easy to apply, and the applicater helped too! However I found it was a bit too sheer and sometimes would crease up, but maybe if i powdered on top that would of been better? I found when I wear Bobbi Brown correcter in peach underneath the concealer gave a better result, but all in all for my asian skin under the eye which is a little dark it was not right for me, but the texture of the concealer was really good!
Tried this with the powder and it works great :D

The wine cup is getting passed. Napa wineries are still 95% family-owned, but the original vintners who put Napa on the oenophile map back in the 1970s are all white-haired or dead. In 2008, a Silicon Valley Bank survey figured that 51% of West Coast wineries were planning to go through a change in control within 10 years. This aging generation of vintners essentially has to decide whether to pass their terroir to their offspring or sell the family holdings outright to big producers, rich folk looking for baubles, or private equity.
The great vineyard transition essentially started in 2004, when Constellation Brands (ticker: STZ) took out Robert Mondavi Winery for $1.4 billion. But the Mondavis are fourth-generation Napa Valley royalty, and started again. The late Robert, along with his children, Tim and Marcia, took their estimated $236 million and launched Continuum Estate. The goal was always to produce an enduring estate-based wine to be passed through the family for generations, says Tim Mondavi's 37 year-old daughter Carissa. After having lost control of the Robert Mondavi Winery to outside investors, the family is now doing everything it can to smartly pass along Continuum, with family members meeting with succession counselors twice per year. Interest in Continuum will ultimately be split, says Carissa, between her siblings, herself and cousins.
The importance of smart succession planning recently became apparent to Jasmine Hirsch, an heiress-apparent to Sonoma's venerable Pinot producer Hirsch Vineyards, currently selling 5,000 cases a year. Her father, David Hirsch, was hospitalized in mid-May after a tractor pinned him between its movable arms and the main body of the vehicle. David is stable and recovering but will likely miss the entire growing season.
Real estate in the world's top cities is "full valued." So says the "Candy GPS Report," a study taking the pulse of real estate across the globe and compiled by Deutsche Asset & Wealth Management, Candy & Candy and Savills.
Roughly half of real estate investments in recent years made by ultra-high net worth folks went to the top ten "alpha cities," which includes New York, London, and Hong Kong. According to Savills, between 2006 and 2012, the prices of real estate in the top-ten major cities, from Moscow to Singapore, have risen 11% annually, versus 5% for those outside those major urban areas. But now, after such torrid growth, the prices for prime property markets globally should revert to more regular, demand-driven growth, says Mark Roberts, head of alternatives and real estate for Deutsche Asset & Wealth Management. He estimates those returns will revert to their historic rate of 4% to 6% after inflation.
Here, now, is where it gets interesting. As the prime markets settle down, the research suggests that prices in "second-tier cities" could pick-up pace, as wealthy folks broaden their search for yield.
There's yet more evidence the luxury housing market is back. Christie's International Real Estate says that in 2013 a wave of domestic buyers diluted the influence of wealthy foreigners, who had previously been supporting local markets. And, surprise, deep-pocketed U.S.-based millennials were a big part of that, as they took their first dive into the U.S.'s luxury homes market.
According to Christie's, these young buyers actually crowded the market for entry level luxury homes, defined as houses over a $1 million, and bidding activity, recently, is stoking property markets ever higher.
Christie's findings jive in part with Penta's latest top-20 second-homes survey, which noted that the median sales price of $1 million-plus homes dropped 3.6%, to $1,874,628 last year. As we reported, lots of activity at the low end of the market – signs of a robust market – has the short term effect of dragging down the median price of houses, in a market previously dominated by a few very expensive houses at the top trading hands. Areas like Austin, for example, saw median prices fall by 4.3%, but local brokers told us that the lower end, just below $1 million, was particularly hot when compared to the trophy purchases of 2012 – and that's what created the overall decline in median prices.
The world of home entertainment technology is evolving at breakneck speed. In the same way flat-screen televisions made the tube television as quaint as a rotary phone virtually overnight, the once familiar plasma display panels are now on the way out.
They are being replaced by 4K display, which delivers 4,000 pixels of resolution, a huge leap over the current home high-definition format, which maxes out at 1,080 pixels. The 4K display televisions range in size from 39 to 85 inches and prices, accordingly, range from $500 to $40,000.
Then there is that 3D programming, suddenly showing up on your cable service. Another technical nightmare. Flat-screen 3D sets also need a specialized player, and the process still requires wearing funny-looking glasses while in your living room.
The next big investment opportunity might not be stocks. Citi Private Bank's chief investment officer Steven Wieting says that post-financial crisis investors have accepted that the world isn't ending but still crave investments that can be exited quickly. Patient investors with a longer time horizon can play this lingering anxiety by buying less liquid investment vehicles— like private equity firms and real estate— that are still sitting in the bargain bin. Among the opportunities are European corporate debt and investing in smaller North American energy firms.
With all the noise about folks moving up the risk curve, and the general shift from cash and fixed income to equities, it turns out a good portion of investors globally are still frozen in time. A recent Citi Private Bank survey of 50 family offices from over 20 countries found an average allocation of only 25% to equities and an astonishing 40% in cash. Unbeknownst to these wealthy investors across the globe, their excessively conservative portfolios produced mediocre results, a paltry 6% return last year compared to the MSCI World Index's 20.3% return. Citi Private Bank's gains, for a portfolio with 51% in equities and 5% to cash, came to 11%.
While Wieting is not predicting another equities gusher this year, he still thinks U.S. large-cap equities will grow by an additional 9% to 10%, with dividends reinvested. Generally, however, upward-trending markets like the U.S. and Japan are nearing their historic averages and maturity from a valuation standpoint, he says, while emerging markets remain unattractive. The commodity super-cycle – that realized ten years of double-digit annual growth in emerging markets– is coming to an end. European equities are the most attractive of the lot and Citi expects them to grow 13% next year.
The prices for real estate are going up everywhere – but in high-end New York.
Real estate prices in major metropolitan areas popped this past year, with San Francisco, Miami and Chicago up 25%, 16%, and 11% respectively, according to the S&P/Case-Shiller Home Price Indices. Barron's colleague Jonathan Laing predicts a rise of 5% in the U.S. for the next two years.
One anomaly, in these across the board price increases, seems to be New York City. According to a recently released Brown Harris Stevens study, the average Manhattan apartment sales price declined by 2% in the fourth quarter of 2013, to $1,553,599, versus the same time last year. Inventory (existing properties for sale) is about 20% below levels last year, suggesting prices should be tight. They aren't.
Cultivating a family legacy is not that different from tending a garden: land with poor prospects, at first glance, has to be coaxed over time –patiently and carefully–until it has a fertile life of its own. Case in point: The Morris family of Pennsylvania, which nursed its garden into an arboretum, an estate that lives on even after the family mansion, the iron-manufacturing company that supplied its fortune, and the line of direct descendants have all disappeared.
It's a private park well worth a visit. The Morris Arboretum of the University of Pennsylvania meanders over 175 acres in northwestern Chestnut Hill, a quaint and leafy Philadelphia neighborhood of cobblestone streets and boutique shops. In 1887, John and Lydia Morris, brother and sister heirs of the I.P. Morris firm, bought the land. It seemed an unlikely spot for their botanical ambitions, an infertile lot with poor, quick-draining soil.
Out of this stark landscape, the Morrises not only fashioned the quirky Compton mansion, but pioneered a new kind of ornamental garden: Inspired by their extensive travels in Europe and Asia, John and Lydia created English park-style grounds infused with both native and exotic flora, overseen by a gardener and landscape architect imported from Japan.
By Hilary Johnson
The family office of Diana "Dini" Cecil Pickering, the 55 year-old great-granddaughter of George Vanderbilt, doesn't focus on overseeing the family's investment portfolio, but instead works at educating current and future owners of the Biltmore Estate, the largest private home in the United States, about their legacy and responsibilities.
Those responsibilities are considerable. Pickering's great-grandfather built the Biltmore Estate, one of America's grandest homes, a stunning 250-room, 8,000 acre Gilded Age work of art in Asheville, N.C.. It's the legacy in that stone manse that Dini Pickering and her relatives are trying to preserve and pass on, while her brother, William "Bill" Amherst Vanderbilt Cecil Jr., oversees operations and physical preservation as CEO of the Biltmore Estate.
To that end, Pickering just completed her 20th biannual family meeting, marking her family office's 10th anniversary. It's taken a full decade, Pickering says, to work out the family office's mission and goals, but finally it's come together. She, her brother, their spouses and children have policies and plans worked out, as the fifth generation, comprising her two children, two nephews and a niece, begin to take up the challenge of operating the Biltmore Estate.
"We've gone at a consistent rate, but not at a speedy rate," Pickering says. "It doesn't happen overnight, and since we only meet twice a year, it's been a process, but I feel very proud about where we've come from and what we've been able to accomplish."
The rest of us can only hope they are successful. The Biltmore Estate is a national treasure. The lavish mansion was designed in the style of a Renaissance French Chateau by Richard Morris Hunt; the grounds were landscaped by Frederick Law Olmsted. The home itself shelters priceless works, including 16th century Flemish tapestries, rare books, antique furniture, and paintings. It has 43 bathrooms, 65 fireplaces, three kitchens, and a 70,000 gallon indoor pool with a vaulted tiled ceiling by Rafael Guastavino. All this requires 1,800 employees, who welcome approximately 1 million visitors a year, each of whom pays about $60 to enter the estate. In total, the Biltmore generates $140 million in annual revenue, but about 90 cents of every dollar in fees gets reinvested in operations.
America's wealthy are packing their bags.
Back in June 2011, 55% of America's comfortably well-off folks surveyed in the Mendelsohn Affluent Barometer said they intended to take a summer vacation. In April, 2013, the figure stands at 61%, a sign that folks are relaxing, both more at ease with their finances and able to take time off. The time spent in a hammock has jumped, too, from 14 days in 2011 to 16 days in 2013, and a third of those surveyed intend to spend more on their vacation this year than they have in the past.
Slow off the mark and need ideas for the summer break? The big draws are beaches, not terribly original, but always relaxing: 45% of the affluent intend to dig their toes in the sand this summer (versus 40% in 2011.) Urban funk has its draws, too, apparently, with 28% (versus 19%) wanting to hang out in major U.S. cities this summer; 17% (9%) are heading to big cities overseas. Apparently, there are more tipplers in the crowd: 16% are heading to vineyards and wineries, versus the 7% who did so in 2011.
Affluent folks are also far more internationally-minded this year. The 83% who were intent on vacationing in the continental U.S.-only have fallen to 70%. If you are among this dwindling number of homebodies, consider little-visited Baltimore, for a city-escape, or Bath County, Virginia, if more bucolic vistas are your thing. If you are in the market to buy a second home in the U.S., check out Penta's annual survey of domestic resorts and second home prices. The very wealthy are currently attracted most by low-tax states like Florida, Wyoming, Nevada and Texas.
While the U.S. economy is recovering, fueled by the Fed's monetary expansion, to most, high inflation seems a long way off. But some smart folk – such as U. S. Bank Wealth Management's chief executive, Mark Jordahl – are predicting a serious discussion on inflationary pressures by year's end, with rates subsequently rising in 2014, all in a pre-emptive effort to smother inflationary embers before a wildfire takes hold.
Time will tell whether the Fed timed things right; the track record of central banks, historically, does not breed confidence. But there is no reason to sit inert in a depressive funk. U.S. investors can prepare themselves in case the Fed loses its grip and prices suddenly skyrocket, by studying the lessons learned by other investors who have lived with and invested in high inflation countries like Argentina, Russia, and Mexico.
In periods of high inflation, local currencies devalue, meaning that while the real value of assets may not change meaningfully, the nominal price of assets increases dramatically. This leads to rapid erosion in the value of most financial assets, and a corresponding increase in the real value of financial liabilities, such as mortgages, since the amount that must be repaid is fixed in nominal terms.
Written with Barron's wit and often contrarian perspective, Penta provides the affluent with advice on how to navigate the world of wealth management, how to make savvy acquisitions ranging from vintage watches to second homes, and how to smartly manage family dynamics.
Richard C. Morais, Penta's editor, was Forbes magazine's longest serving foreign correspondent, has won multiple Business Journalist Of The Year Awards, and is the author of two novels: The Hundred-Foot Journey and Buddhaland, Brooklyn. Robert Milburn is Penta's reporter, both online and for the quarterly magazine. He reviews everything from family office regulations to obscure jazz recordings.

Movie News
Quint reports in on a Rushmore-ish dark comedy/coming of age flick out of the UK called SUBMARINE! Sundance 2011!
Ahoy, squirts! Quint here with one of the highlights of the 2011 Sundance film festival so far.
I think it was my very young viewing of Stand By Me that cemented my love of coming of age movies. It's a genre that is often attempted, but it's rare that it is nailed. I'd say Submarine nails it.
On the surface it's a bleak, quirky dark comedy about a weird kid who is maybe a little too smart for his own good that has to juggle his first romance and the growing distance between his parents.
The bit of description above may paint a certain picture in your mind's eye, but there's much more richness to the movie than a brief plot synopsis can convey. Much like Rushmore isn't just about a kid who has a crush on his teacher the level of detail in the characters, the comedy and the world is what really makes this flick work.
Young Craig Roberts plays the lonely weird brainy Oliver Tate, a Harold (of & Maude) like teenager who targets an odd girl in his class to be his first love. Unlike most romantic comedies (dark or not) the odd girl isn't the super model in glasses nerd or the unique poor girl from the wrong side of the tracks. She's kind of a cunt to be honest, a bully who is so cruel and emotionless that the word "cunt" might be too nice.
Of course you see a softening of this character, Jordana (Gemma Chan), but it's not as radical as you'd come to expect in the more surface-level homogenized studio teenage comedies.
Yes, there's quite a bit of "indie quirk" here, but it doesn't feel forced. Indie quirk is a lot like sentimentality… when wielded like a hammer it misses the target, but when handled with scalpel-like precision it can be absolutely effective.
Roberts carries this film with a quiet enthusiasm that is quite infectious. You're with this kid from the beginning and rooting for him all the way. You groan for him when he fucks up, you feel like cheering for him when he succeeds. In other words it's a very involving character, which gives us an entry point to the weirdness of the world.
Let me give you an example of the weirdness. A mulleted Paddy Considine pops up as a nearby neighbor and childhood sweetheart of our lead's mom. He has a van that is airbrushed with an image of his giant head, advertising his psychic powers. This dude, who Oliver calls a ninja because he routinely throws wild martial arts kicks and punches in his backyard (badly), starts seducing his mother and his meek dad (played by the great Noah Taylor) refuses to step in and stop it. If made in America this would have been a Danny McBride character and that's the main threat to this marriage.
Writer/Director Richard Ayoade deftly shifts between sweetness, cruelty, comedy, tenderness, anarchy, quirkiness, drama and melancholy without the transition ever being jarring. It's quite a focused film with a wide variety of subject matter, odd because the movie feels so contained.
The Weinstein Company has this, so I'm sure you'll see it roll out in a biggish limited release sometime later this year. If you like flicks like Rushmore and Harold & Maude then I'm willing to bet you'll dig this one, too.
If you want an up to the minute account of what I'm seeing and my immediate verdict on Sundance flicks as I see them be sure to follow me on Twitter!

I watched the last 10 minutes of Young Guns last night on tv and noticed something I'd missed. At the very end when the narrator tells of what became of each member of the gang as they parted ways and they would dissapear.

a lot of fun - saw it at the end of last year at the London Film Festival. It is a fairly standar coming-of-age story - but as noted you do care about the characters - and it wears its 'quirkyness' with a light touch.

Ayoade is a freaking god.
by AnnoyYou
If it weren't for his participation in Garth Marenghi's Darkplace or The Mighty Boosh (his Saboo is my favorite peripheral character), I'd love him always just for Moss on The IT Crowd. He's amazing. He's directing an episode of Community this season (and I hope to God his Cambridge Footlights buddy John Oliver is in it). Can't wait to see it or his debut film. ::screams a little::

by Smack_Teddy
so i will be watching this. And Of all the minor celebrities pushing DVDs in Virgin Megastore in London, him, Berry & Mathew Holness were easily the most entertaining but hardcore & millitant, staying in 'Darkplace' character modes till the long bitter end (those signings can go on all day). He also lit a ciggarette for me just off tottenham court road once with with an amazing 'fro another time randomly, with a warm, friendly but slightly suspicious-of- the-tiny-wierd-fella-in-front-of-him look. Maybe he remembered me from the Man-to-Man-With-Dean-Learner audience (the best episode hands down with Randolph Caer) when that was recorded and had good reason i don't know.... A slighty pointless, but true story....story equivalents or extentions of name droppings aside, i will be watching this even though missed it at theatres, because Richatd Ayoade is indeed awesome and someting of a god to me.

Two in a row.That's a streak, right? And the Preds were firmly in control both games. Very encouraging. It's amazing what can happen when you don't allow 4 goals a game. Can we keep the streak...
CSSI is back for the 2013-14 season. Join us as we take a deeper look into the Red Wings' performance against the Nashville Predators on Tuesday.
The Nashville Predators stuck it to their old rivals tonight, sending the Detroit Red Wings to their 7th consecutive loss while rookie goaltender Marek Mazanec earned his first career shutout.
After years of whining and crying about how unfair the league was to the Red Wings (LOL), they finally got moved to the East. Good for them. I, for one, don't miss them a bit. I can boo Dallas and...
Old rivals meet once again as the Predators try to capitalize on an inspiring win and finally take advantage of another struggling team.
Miss these guys? Yeah, I didn't think so. I'd love to see these guys go home broken-hearted just like the Hawks fans on Saturday, but which Preds team will show up? I have no idea.
After having mopped the ice with the Chicago Blackhawks last night, the Nashville Predators will try to carry forward some positive momentum as they face three more Original Six opponents this week.
