Investors seem pretty optimistic about the European stock market.
With fears of a June interest rate hike by the Federal Reserve abating and worries rising about U.S. corporate earnings, investors pushed into European equity funds during the seven-day span ending March 25 and exited U.S. funds during the same period, according to data released by EPFR Global.
With net inflows for the week topping $6 billion, European equity funds tracked by the data firm set a weekly inflow record for the third time since mid-February. In Japan, meanwhile, funds tracked by the firm took in $2 billion during the week.
Yet those inflows were offset by U.S. equity funds, which posted outflows of $8 billion as investors look ahead to what could be an ugly first-quarter corporate earnings season. Large-cap funds experienced the biggest redemptions.
In emerging markets, global-tracked equity funds recorded a third consecutive weekly outflow – their longest such streak since a 10 week run ended in mid-January, according to EPFR. China led redemptions, though Vietnam was hit hardest among all emerging market country fund groups in terms of flows as a percentage of assets under management.
Turkey equity funds ended the week on track to post their largest outflow since mid-December and to extend their current redemption streak to eight consecutive weeks.
In the land of fixed income, U.S. bond funds tracked by EPFR led the way as most fund groups recorded inflows.
Stock futures are inching lower before the opening bell, with the S&P 500 down 0.2%. The U.S. economy slowed in the final months of 2014 and corporate profits fell, putting it on weaker footing ahead of an apparent slowdown early this year. The yield on the 10-year Treasury rose 1.976%. In commodities, oil dipped 1.2% to $50.81 and gold fell 0.35%.

The bull market has made shorting stocks a money losing proposition.
Just ask Glenview Capital Management and other hedge fund firms. Citing a letter sent to shareholders regarding fourth-quarter returns, Alpha reports that the Glenview Opportunity Fund and its offshore counterpart posted an eye-popping 18% return on their long positions, beating the 4.9% returned by the S&P 500.
But short positions were another matter. Glenview suffered a nearly 13% loss on short positions during the fourth quarter.
How did it all pan out? The Glenview Offshore Opportunity Fund returned 4.4$% during the fourth quarter, while the Glenview Capital Opportunity Fund gained almost 4.9% for the period. For the full year, both funds, were up just under 25%
Glenview is not alone. TigerShark Management, one of the original hedge funds seeded by billionaire investor Julian Robertson, is said to be closing after 14 years, the victim of return-denting short positions.
Long-time hedge fund manager Leon Cooperman's Omega Advisors got served.
Various media outlets are reporting that Cooperman has informed investors via a letter dated March 24 that the hedge fund, which managed $9 billion in assets, recently received subpoenas from the U.S. Attorney's Office in New Jersey and the SEC.
As the Wall Street Journal reports:
It wasn't immediately clear what the subpoenas specifically sought; in the letter, Mr. Cooperman said they asked for "information relating to its trading in certain securities."
He wrote that he was "highly confident" that Omega and its employees "have at all times acted properly and lawfully."
Omega is one of the oldest firms in the hedge fund industry. It was founded in 1991 by Cooperman, who was previously a general partner at Goldman Sachs (GS) and chairman of its asset-management business.
With Saudi airstrikes in Yemen stoking fears for the oil-rich region, crude prices are getting a huge boost today and dragging beaten down oil-focused exchange-traded funds along for the ride.
The U.S. Oil Fund (USO), which holds about 60,000 crude oil futures contracts, surged 4.8% to $18.20 with more than 33 million shares changing hands, and the iPath S&P GSCI Crude Oil Total Return Index ETN (OIL) climbed 5.2% to almost $11.
And the highly leveraged VelocityShares 3x Long Crude Oil ETN (UWTI) surged more than 14% with more than 77 million shares exchanging hands, making it not only the day's biggest gainer, but also the second-most actively traded exchange-traded product.
The fund has fallen more than 90% over the past 12 months.
Yesterday, Saudi Arabia and its allies launched a military campaign in neighboring Yemen. Airstrikes intended to defend the existing government against Iranian-backed rebels have shaken financial markets and sent gold prices higher as a haven investment.
Crude oil prices are on track to post the first five-session winning-streak since June. Nymex crude for May delivery recently was 4.2% higher at $51.28 a barrel, pushing above $50 for the first time since March 9.
Mergers and acquisitions are down, but private equity is up. That's the result from a recent report by FactSet Insight highlighting that while M&A activity in the U.S. fell slightly in February, private equity deals continued to surge, rising more than 10%.
Private equity deals numbered 98, up from 89 in January. M&A deal activity, however, slipped 5.7% in February to 938 deal announcements compared to 995 in January.
Yet despite fewer deals, spending on mergers and acquisitions surged almost 46% compared to the previous month, fueled by a series of big transactions, including Pfizer's (PFE) $15.4 billion acquisition of Hospira (HSP), The $11.1 billion offer by Valeant Pharmaceuticals International (VRX) for Salix Pharmaceuticals (SLXP), Ball's (BLL) agreement to acquire Rexam (REXMY) for $6.8 billion and Staples's (SPLS) $6.2 billion deal for rival Office Depot (ODP).
Six months have passed since bond king Bill Gross shocked the investing world by announcing his defection from Pimco to Janus (JNS).
But Pimco's flagship Total Return Fund (PTTAX), which Gross formerly managed, is beating most of its rivals, according to the Wall Street Journal. Citing research from Morningstar, the newspaper reports that the world's biggest bond mutual fund has returned 3.73% since the start of October through Tuesday's closing bell, besting 92% of its peers as well as its benchmark.
Gross left Pimco in September after a year of heavy outflows and conflicts with colleagues. In the nine months before his exit, the fund trailed 80%.
Today, the fund is run by a trio of men (Gross was a solo act) – Scott Mather, Mihir Worah and Mark Kiesel. How did they turn the ship around? Reducing some bets on U.S. government bonds and being quicker in some riskier types of bonds.
Still, investors continue to yank cash out of the Total Return Fund. As the WSJ writes:
..assets have fallen by 57% from their April 2013 peak. February marked the 22nd consecutive month of net outflows, although the size of the withdrawals has moderated. The $124.7 billion Total Return fund is at risk of losing its title as the world's largest bond fund by assets to the Vanguard Total Bond Market Index fund, a passively managed bond fund with $114.9 billion of assets.
After leaving Pimco, a unit of Allianz (AZSEY), Gross went to run the $1.45 billion Janus Global Unconstrained Bond Fund (JUCAX). Since Gross arrived, the fund has returned just under 0.6%, beating 62% of peers.
Gold may be more expensive, but its silver that's generating the better returns. Or at least that's what Tom Lydon at ETF Trends.com writes about silver-related exchange-traded funds, which have outperformed other precious metals-based funds in 2015.
There are some drawbacks facing silver. A strong U.S. dollar and a deflationary environment may cause metal prices to flounder. The recent pullback by the greenback, however, has provided a nice lift for silver and other precious metals.
Still, as of today, the iShares Silver Trust (SLV) have climbed 7.8% since the start of the year, while the ETFS Physical Silver Shares (SIVR) gained 8.17% and the PowerShares DB Silver Fund (DBS) increased 8.1%. In contrast, the SPDR Gold (GLD) only added 1.1% so far this year and the ETFS Physical Platinum ETF (PPLT) rose 7.3%.
As Lydon writes:
Unlike gold, silver has greater industrial applications. For instance, consumers may find silver in electronics, optics and biotechnologies, writes Dominic Frisby for MoneyWeek.
In the more mainstream demand side, silver jewelry demand is still rising due to increased consumption among emerging markets, notably in China where we are seeing a rising middle class with increased discretionary money.
On the supply side, silver miners are finding less deposits and producers are expanding into new projects, which suggests that silver could be in shorter supply ahead.
Additionally, there is the money valuation angle. As central banks keep dumping money into the world economy, paper money becomes less valuable and hard assets, like silver, become a better store of wealth.
Here's some suggested morning reading:
Regulatory guidance that seeks to limit the use of borrowed money in takeovers has hampered the business of debt-laden acquisitions. – Gillian Tan, Wall Street Journal
Gold's relationship with the dollar is "complex," and is set to "diminish" as the market shifts to Asia. – Myra P. Saefong, MarketWatch.com
Is it time to rotate away from U.S. equities? – Tyler Mordy, ETF.com

Biotech ETFs are looking sickly today, apparently amid worries about a bubble.
On a day when the Dow has fallen more than 225 points, or 1.2% and the Nasdaq Composite has crumbled more than 96 points, or 1.9%, the Nasdaq Biotech Index appears even bleaker, falling more than 3.6% in recent trading.
Should we blame the Wall Street Journal? Earlier today, staff writer Gregory Zuckerman weighed in about bubble fears surrounding the Nasdaq being fueled not by tech stocks, but rather the big valuations for biotech stocks following the industry's multi-year rally.
The Nasdaq Biotech Index has more than tripled in value since 2012 amid big earnings and new drug approvals. Industry giants like have surged in value: Gilead Sciences (GILD) and Amgen (AMGN) have risen 40% over the past year. Biogen Idec (BIIB) has climbed 47%. Celgene (CELG) is up 75%.
Today, all four stocks are down, with Biogen, which recent surged dropping more than 4.2%, Celgene falling 3.5%, Amgen losing 2.4% and Gilead dropping 1.2%.
It spelled bad news for the iShares Nasdaq Biotechnology Index Fund (IBB). With the drug-making foursome sitting as the fund's biggest holdings, the ETF fell 3.3% in recent trading.
Elsewhere in the ETF arena, the SPDR S&P Biotech ETF (XBI) fell 4.2% and the ProShares Ultra Nasdaq Biotech fund (BIB) fell 6.2%.
As exchange-traded funds and other investing vehicles have ballooned in number, the task of figuring out what works well and what doesn't has only gotten harder. Barrons.com's Focus on Funds looks under the hood of ETFs, mutual funds and hedge funds for overlooked values, actionable ideas and the latest pitfalls for fund investors.

Remote X11 Windows to AIX
UrbanBiel 0600017E5Q Comments (13) Visits (53884)
I love a command line. It's numerous advantages over GUI is hard to list, but there are situations, where you need a remote X Windows connection. I've been asked many times by my colleagues, how to set up remote X Windows (X11, as the most recent version of X Windows is 11) on AIX, why it doesn't work, etc.
Basic overview of X11 Windows architecture
X11 is a client / server architecture. You need to know two things:
Anyway, some people are confused here: I'm connecting to an AIX server using ssh/telnet, thus my workstation is an ssh/telnet client. What do I have to run on my local machine: an X11 client or an X11 server? You obviously need to install and run an X11 server on your local workstation. If you run e.g. xclock on a remote machine (AIX), that's an X11 client.
Let's have a quick look at a connection between an X11 client and an X11 server. The connection can be a unix socket or TCP/IP. The socket is used, when the client and the server run on the same machine, which is not our case. Remote X Windows connection is using the TCP/IP. To tell the client, where the X11 server runs, you need to set up a DISPLAY environment variable. By default an X11 server listens on port 6000. You can have more X server instances, but that's out of the topic.
Your workstation
If you want to display a program on your local workstation, that is running on a remote AIX, you need to install and run an X server locally. If you run Linux on your workstation and you're reading this in a browser, you're done. On Windows there is a few X servers; some are commercial, some are free. Very popular is Xming, I use Cygwin.
A quick Cygwin howto:
If you see the output like this, you're done with your workstation.
Remote AIX server
An X Windows minimum installation includes filesets: X11.base.lib X11.base.rte X11.apps.config. I suggest to install X11.apps.clients too, that contains xclock program. By running this program I check the time, and of course the X11 setup. For an X11 client to run, it needs to establish TCP/IP connection to your X11 server. You can do this directly or you can tunnel the connection.
Direct X11 TCP/IP connection
The simplest scenario. It works, if there is no firewall blocking port 6000 to your workstation and there is no NAT. Try to ping your workstation from the AIX server, and if it works, try telnet to port 6000 to your workstation. If everything is fine, set the DISPLAY variable to an IP address of your workstation, for example
SSH X11 port forwarding
This is the way professionals do it, as ssh is installed by default on AIX now. Advantages:
On the AIX check, that ssh X11 forwarding requests are allowed:
# grep X11Forwarding /etc
If it's necessary, change the value and restart the ssh service. You can do it while you're logged in, your current ssh session will not be dropped. Keep in mind, that the ssh X11 forwarding will apply only to new ssh sessions, that are opened with X forwarding.
stopsrc –s sshd; sleep 2; startsrc –s sshd
Now set the X11 forwarding on your workstation. If you have an command line ssh client e.g. as part of Cygwin, run
After you log in, check the DISPLAY and authentification value. If it is as on an example below, run xclock and enjoy.
# echo $DISPLAY DISP
Note: If you open more ssh sessions to one host, with the X11 forwarding turned on, every session will have different offset number in the DISPLAY variable. The offset number is the one after a colon, e.g. 10 in the example above.
A few FAQ's I'm being asked
I run xclock, but it hangs out and does not display anything
I use ssh the X11 forwarding, but the DISPLAY variable is not set
I'm getting xauth errors immediately after logon
If you get an error after you log in with ssh X11 forwarding on, that looks like this one (the string in quotes can be different):
/usr/bin/X11/xauth: (stdin):1: 1356-373 unknown command "odstr" /usr/bin/X11/xauth: (stdin):2: 1356-373 unknown command "prida"and every xauth command gives you this message:
p740a10:/root>xauth 1356-364 xauth: creating new authority file /root/.Xauthoritywhile no .Xauthority file is actually created, the issue is with the language environment setting on the AIX server. I believe this is a bug. It looks like if you have the system language set to other that en_US language and you do have a openssh message catalogue of that language, xauth commands "add" and "remove" are being translated into the non en_US language for any reason and it just doesn't work. These commands are run automatically by ssh in order to deploy your X11 authentication token on the remote server. To solve this issue, either:
Hello. Thanks for the article. It is well done.
I have aix server that I have upgraded from 5.3 to 6.1 TL7. I was able to do the remote display prior to the upgrade. I have followed your steps and still running into some issues. Same error "Can't open display: localhost:10".
I am running cygwin server and it comes up file on the icon tray.. It shows ":0.0".. and I am using putty and also configured that.. I tried setting the x display location and still no luck..
Thanks for the feedbak Khalid
I assume you use ssh X11 forwarding, so ssh must set up DISPLAY variable automaticaly. Do not change it manually
What is the whole message you get when you try to run an x11 app?
Is there any X11 related message you get after you log in?
If there is no firewall and NAT between you and the server (including a firewall on your workstation), do: export DISPLAY=<ip of="of" your="your" workstation="workstation">:0 and locally in your cygwin shell run DISPLAY=localhost:0 xhost +
Does the remote X11 works with a different aix?
install cygwin ssh if you don't have yet and try ssh -v -X <aix>, or try ssh -Y <aix>
during the aix migration, did openssh/openssl update too?
Let me know if it helped.</aix></aix></ip>

Khalid: How do I set it automatically ?
What is the whole message you get when you try to run an x11 app?
On window's session.. This is what I do...
1.) Run cgywin x-server
2.) Run putty with x-forward enabled.
3.) In the putty session run...
export DISPLAY="localhost:0"
Error: Can't open display: localhost:0
1356-200 xhost unable to open display "localhost:0"
Khalid: Don't have this....
aix 5.3 to aix 6.1.. I am sure it was updated.. And x11forwarding is enabled in sshd_config.
First of all, do not set the DISPLAY variable on login. ssh does
this for you automatically, if your ssh X11 forwarding is set up
correctly. By this I mean, that you have X11 forwarding option set
on client (apparently you do) and X11 forwarding is enabled in
sshd_config (apparently it is).
Remove export DISPLAY="localhost:0" on log in and try.
Thanks for this straightforward instructions!
Nevertheless, I have ran up against some troubles. I use Cygwin on Windows 7 and I have installed only packages you have listed - xorg-server xinit xauth xclock xterm xhost . I have set up my workstation and used SSH X11 port forwarding as described above. xclock and xterm worked fine.
When I tried to launch a graphical installation wizard (IBM CM 8.3), it crashed with:
All, I had some problems where the "DISPLAY" variable wasn't being
set properly. The solution that worked for me is this: In the
/etc/ssh/sshd_config, ensure the following is commented (yes, with
a '#' in front):
#X11DisplayOffset 10
#X11UseLocalhost yes
#XauthLocation /usr/bin/X11/xauth
X11Forwarding yes
stopsrc –s sshd; sleep 2; startsrc –s sshd
startsrc -s sshd
Thanks for the comment exec2020
leaving the comment # character means, that you let ssh to take the default, which (if you don't alter it) is the same value that is commented. So there is no difference between
#X11DisplayOffset 10
X11DisplayOffset 10
If there is a difference in behavior, I'd suspect the version of ssh to be buggy.
A well written article. It has been a great help even to first time user of X windows.
Great! Thank you
Thank you for this artivle, i have spent last hours try to do
it.....and the error was the X11Forwarding parameter .!!!
thank you again

Obamacare: 7 Million Signups Isn't 7 Million Covered
|By: Jon Walker Tuesday April 1, 2014 11:36 am
When talking about health care the media has been conflating what are actually two very different things which just happen to contain the figure "7 million." There is the 7 million signup benchmark for success set by the Obama administration and the 7 million covered by exchange plans projected by the Congressional Budget Office last year. While they may sound interchangeable they are not.

Description (OCR text may contain errors)
E. ZLOBIN June 2, 1964 THERMG CUP Filed Dec. 23, 1960 FIGJI FIGJI EuGEmusz zLoBlN Altorncy for a cup or the like.
United States Patent O 3,135,118 THERMO CUP Eugeniusz Zlobin, 104 Oxford Ave., Bualo 9, NKY. Filed Dec. 23, 1960, Ser. N0. 78,108 3 Claims. (Cl. 73-368) This invention relates to a novel form or structure More specifically, the novel concept of this invention resides in a cup having integral therein, a temperature indicating device.
The structure of this invention comprises a cup having therein a bottom chamber which has a tube like outlet extending into and through the handle of said clup. Positioned in this bottom chamber is a heatresponsive liquid adapted to expand upon being heated.
' When a hot liquid is poured into this cup, the heat- Vresponsive liquid will quickly and accurately indicate the liquid temperature. A calibrated indicator scale can be positioned on the handle so that the exact temperature of the liquid can be determined. If it is desired, the indicator scale can be left off the cup. In this event, the handle means of the cup will glow red, or other color, when a hot liquid is poured into the cup. The heat-responsive liquid may be any conventional liquid such as mercury or stained alcohol, or the like. The indicator means also may be put in any portion of the cup rather than positioned inthe handle. Also, the cup and handle may be made of a non-transparent material. However, the temperature indicator should be transparent. Stained alcohol is preferred since color can easily be imparted to the alcohol; in this manner the colored alcohol will cause the handle means to glow when the containing liquid is hot and return to normal when the liquid is cooled.
A futher modification that may be incorporated into the cup is a whistle or sound alarm indicating that the containing liquid is hot. This sound system comprises an air chamber positioned preferably in the bottom or side wall portion of the cup. A whistle or sounding means is positioned therein in the form of an aperturelike whistle means extending from the air chamber to the atmosphere. Upon pouring a hot liquid into the cup, the air in the chamber will expand and escape through the aperture-like whistle means thereby activating the whistle. This sound-alarm means may be used in the cup to indicate the temperature of the containing liquid independently of the above discussed visual means (the heat-responsive liquid). It is preferred, however, that both the visual and sounding indicator means be used together on the cup container. When both temperature indicator means are used, the following arrangement may be utilized: the bottom most portion of the cup or the side Wall comprises an air chamber completely closed except for an air escape aperture in the form of a whistle means, positioned either in the lower or upper side portion of cup. Immediately above the air chamber is positioned the heat-responsive liquid which is adapted to ow into the handle of the cup. It is preferred that the heat-responsive liquid be positioned in a chamber extending around the outer periphery of the cup in the form of a ring-like means. The contained liquid makes contact with the heat-responsive liquid chamber, and at the same time is in heat-conductive contact with the air chamber which has its upper portion exposed to the contained liquid at the center portion of the ring formed by the peripheral tubular heat-responsive liquid chamber. This arrangement and other modications will be more clearly described in connection with the accompanying drawings. It should be understood, however, that the preferred embodiment of this invention comprises a cup containing both visual temperature indicating means (the heat-responsive liquid which, upon being heated, will expand into the handle,
and the sound temperature indicating means (the air chamber wherein the `contained air will expand upon being heated, and escape through a whistle means).
It is highly desirable that some drinking container be made available that will easily and conveniently indicate the temperature of the containing liquid. This is so particularly when children are given heated liquids to drink. A drinking vessel of thisA nature must, in addition to being useful as such, be economical. The prior art does not make available a drinking cup Wherein integral with the cup structure is a temperature indicating means. It is, therefore, an object of this invention to provide a cup structure that is adapted to easily indicate the temperature of the contained liquid.
It is a further object of this invention to provide an integral temperature indicating means which is easily observed to indicate containing liquid temperature.
A further important object of this invention is to provide a drinking vessel which contains both visual and sounding temperature indicating means.
A still further object is to provide a drinking vessel that will be, in addition to being functional and economical, novel in appearance and function.
Other and further objects will become apparent upon 'z-a further reading of this disclosure.
The inventive concept certainly is capable of a variety of mechanical expressions or modifications. The accompanying drawing illustrates various embodiments of this invention. It should be understood, however, that the following description of the enclosed drawing is meant to illustrate, not limit the construction of the drinking vessel of this invention.
FIGURE I is a view in vertical section of a cup constructed in accordance with the present invention.
FIGURE II is a sectional view of the same cup as lillustrated in FIGURE I but at a right angle thereto.
FIGURE III is a view in vertical section of a preferred embodiment of this invention.
FIGURE IV is a perspective view partly cut away of the cup illustrated in FIGURE III.
Referring first to FIGURE I; cup 1 is provided with a top opening Z. Handle 3 has integral therewith a tube-like channel or chamber 4 extending through substantially its length. The channel 4 extends into base chamber 5, which is positioned in the bottom portion of cup 1. Base chamber 5 can be extended partially up the side of cupi 1 as illustrated in side extension 6. The thickness of cup 1 is indicated in the drawing at 7. In base chamber 5 is positioned a heat-responsive liquid 8 such as stained alcohol or the like. Upon being heated by a contained hot liquid, heat-responsive liquid 8 will expand and flow up into channel 4 causing the handle 3 to be colored by the heat-responsive liquid. The side extension 6 provides a means for a more uniform temperature of the contained liquid to be taken. It is preferred in the embodiment illustrated in FIGURE I that a side extension 6 be included in the structure. Contained liquid is shown at 10.
FIGURE II illustrates a front view of the cup structure shown in FIGURE I modified by the inclusion of a calibrated temperature indicating scale 9 on handle 3. Scale 9 provides a simple means for determining the exact ternperature of the contained liquid 10. When the contained liquid is poured into cup 1, the temperature of same is indicated on scale 9, and is easily visible to the user or observer.
FIGURE III illustrates a preferred embodiment of this invention. Cup 11 has in its lower portion, an air chamber 12. When a heated liquid is put in cup 11 the air in chamber 12 becomes heated and escapes through whistle means 13, thereby sounding the whistle. Around the upper peripheral portion of chamber 12 is positioned a tubular chamber 14 in which a heat-responsive liquid is -positioned. This tubular chamber 14 is positioned around the upper peripheral portion of the chamber 12, and extends up and through the handle 1S, as illustrated at 16. Handle 15 may or may not be calibrated, depending on the type of structure desired. Contained liquid 17 is in heat conductive contact with both the upper portion of chamber 12, and with the heat-responsive liquid chamber 14; thus both temperature indicating means may be observed in determining the temperature of the contained liquid 17. The thickness of cup 11 is indicated by numeral 18.
FIGURE IV is a perspective view of the cup illustrated in FIGURE III. Contained liquid 17 contacts chamber 12 at a point 19, and contacts heat-responsive tubular chamber 14 at the same time. Thus both temperature indicating devices are activated simultaneously.
The structure of this invention may be made of any suitable material such as glass, plastic, or the like. Although it is preferred that a transparent material be used, it is only required that there be transparency at the handle means.
Many modifications and ramifications of the above disclosed invention will naturally suggest themselves to those skilled in the art, based on the disclosure of this basic invention. These are intended to be comprehended within the scope of this invention.
I claim:
1. A drinking cup` comprising in combination, a containing liquid means, a cup handle means, a heat-responsive liquid chamber, a heat-responsive liquid, an air chamber, and a whistle means, said air chamber positioned at the bottom most portion of said cup, and having thereon said whistle means which extends from the internal portion of said air chamber to the atmosphere, said heatresponsive liquid chamber positioned immediately above said air chamber, and extending outwardly from said cup and into and through said handle means, said heatresponsive liquid positioned in said heat-responsive liquid chamber and adapted to expand from said heat-responsive liquid chamber into and through a tubular means positioned in said handle means.
2. A drinking cup comprising in combination, a conaining liquid means, a cup handle means, a heat-responsive liquid chamber, a heat-responsive liquid, an air chamber, and a whistle means, said air chamber positioned in the side wall portion of said cup, and having thereon said whistle means which extends from the internal portion of said air chamber to the atmosphere, said heatresponsive liquid chamber positioned in the lower base portion of said cup, and extending outwardly from said cup and into and through said handle means, said heatresponsive liquid positioned in said heat-responsive liquid chamber, and adapted to expand from said heat-responsive liquid chamber into and through a tubular means positioned in said handle means.
3. A drinking cup adapted to contain hot drinks comprising a base; an upwardly extending sidewall joined to said base and dening therewith a drink-receiving portion, said base being provided with a chamber containining a heat-expansible liquid, said chamber extending upwardly around the entire periphery of said base into the portion of said sidewall adjacent said base; and a closed channel opening from said chamber and extending upwardly therefrom, said channel being normally empty but adapted to receive a portion of said heat-expansible liquid when said liquid becomes heated by a hot drink in said drink-receiving portion, said portion of liquid being visible in said channel whereby to give a visual warning.

I just got back from a 2-night stay here for a soccer tourney. We booked our room in the beginning of March and we picked this hotel for several reasons that included free breakfast, swimming pool for our players, fitness center for parents, nice lobby to meet in, a group price for our team and the bigger rooms. Well... 4 days before we were to leave we received an email entitled..."Springhill Suites Renovation ALERT" which proceeded to say that the lobby/front desk area is under construction, the Pool was CLOSED, the fitness center CLOSED, the free breakfast would be served in a meeting room. Here is my problem with all of this. This hotel DEFINITELY KNEW about this major renovation when we made our reservations but did not say anything to us because they knew we would not book with them and we wouldn't have knowing this information! Hotels do not make major renovations without months of prior planning. I think this is totally false advertising and I would not stay here! I will add that they made arrangements for guests to use the pool at the Marriott Courtyard Hotel but we had to walk to it. Also, we could have complimentary passes to a fitness center but we had to schedule transportation through the front desk and who is going to mess with all that time! Finally, about that "special group rate" we thought we were getting...well, just to check, I went on as just your average person booking a room and guess what, the rate was the same online as our "special rate!" So needless to say, I was not very pleased with the Springhill Suites experience. When we complained about the fact they did not tell us about the renovations when we made our reservations & that the rate charged was no different for our group, they gave us a very small discount on our rooms! I was quite surprised that they didn't put their guests first in solving these issues. On a positive note, the rooms were big and the bathrooms were very big. Final advice, do not stay here especially while this renovation is going on.

6 Kenyans to report to int'l court for charges
NAIROBI, Kenya All six Kenyans who were summoned to the International Criminal Court to face charges for crimes against humanity said Wednesday they will cooperate with the court, while analysts dismissed government claims that the trials could trigger more violence.
Kenya's government appeared to escalate efforts to see that the cases do not proceed. A statement from three government ministers, including the attorney general, said the government will challenge the admissibility of the cases and the jurisdiction of the ICC. Kenya is also lobbying the U.N. to delay the trials.
Among those saying they would appear before the court are Deputy Prime Minister and Finance Minister Uhuru Kenyatta - the son of Kenya's founding president - and former higher education minister William Ruto.
Former Minister of Industrialization Henry Kiprono Kosgey, former police chief Mohammed Hussein Ali, secretary to the Cabinet Francis Muthaura, and broadcaster Joshua Sang also agreed to cooperate.
Kenyatta, who is a leading contender in next year's presidential race, said the court appearance will give him a chance to argue his innocence. He said he would cooperate with the ICC "unwaveringly."
ICC Prosecutor Luis Moreno-Ocampo named the six suspects in December. He alleged that Ruto began plotting attacks on supporters of President Mwai Kibaki a year before the December 2007 election and worked together with Kosgey and Sang to coordinate a campaign of killing and forced deportations in western Kenya's Rift Valley.
Moreno-Ocampo charged Kenyatta, Muthaura and Ali in a separate case. They are suspected of murder, deportation, persecution, rape and inhumane acts committed in retaliation against supporters of Raila Odinga, the current prime minister.
Kenya saw violence after its 1992 and 1997 elections, for which no one was ever punished. Hassan Omar Hassan of the government-funded Kenya National Commission on Human Rights said the ICC indictments for the 2007-08 violence are a big blow to impunity.
"It is telling individuals that they shall not be spared the full wrath of the law should they accord themselves of any discretion to mete violence on others," Hassan said. "The reason why violence in Kenya was usually widespread and almost an option of first resort was because of the impunity that existed."
Kenya was plunged into violence shortly after Kibaki was declared winner of the December 2007 vote that supporters of opponent Odinga said was rigged.
More than 600,000 people were forced from their homes and more than 1,000 people were killed in brutal attacks that shattered Kenya's reputation as a haven of stability in a region roiled by war.
The postelection clashes erupted along tribal lines and were only stopped after former U.N. Secretary-General Kofi Annan mediated a peace agreement that created a coalition government in which Odinga was appointed prime minister.
Kibaki's wing of Kenya's coalition government is trying to lobby the U.N. security council to defer cases of the six Kenyans. Vice President Kalonzo Musyoka met with the president of the U.N. security council Monday and said the ICC trials could cause friction just as Kenya is working through a national healing and reconciliation.

Bird Nest Garden Stake 143 156
So Cute This garden stake was so cute , I couldn't resist it. I have two humming bird feeders hanging on another stake but htere is one territorial male who tries to hog it all to himself so I wanted something to hang the second one on in a different location. This has worked perfectly. It was very easy to put together. The only caveat I have is that it is very light weight so I am concerned that it will not stay in the ground in a wind storm March 27, 2014
Sturdy, Charming and Just Plain Nice! I liked this garden stake even better once I received it....and I absolutely loved it when I first saw it in the catalog. It is artistically made and very sturdy. May 22, 2014
Not a good buy The quality of this is very poor. Where it screws together is a very weak joint that just breaks off in your hand. May 27, 2014
Just perfect I am very please with how quaint this item is. I ordered it for a potted ficus in my guest room, and it is just great. The bird nest could hold some lightweight decorator items and add some color to an otherwise green corner of the room. The plant sits behind a chair that has the bird nest table next to it. Together they are quite lovely. March 28, 2014
First time purchase Very satisfied with our purchase ! Prompt delivery, quality product, easy assembly, attractive addition to our backyard. May 13, 2014
Looks Great! Looks great and was so easy to put together. Ordered this for the back yard, but put it near the front door. May need to order another one! May 6, 2014
Birdnest Stake I love my purchase. It is exactly how it appears in the picture. It's a wonderful landscape enhancement. One of my best purchases yet. May 5, 2014
Fun! Mistook this for a hanging basket holder. Love it anyway; now in the corner in a large flower basket. May 8, 2014
Wonderful Garden Accent I brought two of these to scatter with other accent pices in the yard. They are very nice, tall, detail design and can be used as a bird feeder or similar function with the addition of a bottom liner. April 19, 2014
A charming and sturdy garden stake I can't wait for the ground to thaw, so I can "plant" this bird nest garden stake in the yard. It is quite sturdy and will replace a nearby hanging metal basket (from another source) that rusted out at the bottom this winter. I anticipate putting small decorative hanging plants in the nest. March 13, 2014
Cute in my garden I love this little bird nest stand. I put a plastic pot liner in the nest part and filled it with sunflower seeds and put it in among my low shrubs. The prongs that you stick in the ground are long enough to make this sturdy. We have had a ton of rain and it has held firm. March 7, 2014
Bidrd's Nest Wonderful addition to our meditation bench area. April 25, 2014
Love it! This bird's nest stand is very nice and a quality product. Can't wait to put this in the flower garden..a great addition. April 2, 2014
A treasure in the garden It is very pretty and easy to put together. My dog sometimes even points at the bird. April 3, 2014
Bird Nest Garden Stake What a great purchase. It is really affordable and looks wonderful in our garden. I am thinking of buying another just like it at the other end of the garden. March 14, 2014
Nice Item Purchased this in conjunction with Birds In Fountain wall art. Again, this is a unique item and appears to be good quality. Both look great in our front yard garden area. March 6, 2014
Better quality than the price suggests I'm so glad I bought the Bird Nest Garden Stake. I was at first a bit skeptical because of the fairly low price, but other reviewers convinced me. It looks great in my wine barrel planter, providing upright support for a floppy plumbago. I haven't seen it available from other sources, so it would make a great gift for gardening friends as they aren't likely to already have it. Although actually 2 or 3 strategically placed around a yard could be quite nice as well! July 7, 2011
bird nest garden stake My husband loved it; it looks great in our yard. We've rec'd lots of compliments. March 25, 2014
Great quality The bird nest garden stake was easy to assemble and is a great quality product. Would recommended it to others. March 11, 2014
Perfect Accessory for the yard Love it. Looks perfect in front of my shed. The perfect accessory. March 21, 2014
Another outstanding product from Grandin Road The Bird Nest Garden Stake is so well made and is a beautiful addition to a garden or a extra large potted plant. I shredded cocoa mat to make nesting material and planted a small flowering plant in mine. It brings a smile to my face everytime I look at it. Wish I could give it 10 stars. Neighbors all want to know were I get these wonderful accent pieces in my gardens. I tell them to look up Grandin Road online. Service has always been great. May 30, 2012
A Great Addition to our Garden and Backyard! My husband and I LOVE it! Great Concept. High quality design and materials. We put in just a little bit of spaghnum moss, the yellow fine net from a bag of lemons as a liner and more spaghnum moss, and then planted it with delicate alpine thyme, which should be cascading over the edge soon. Did a little judicious pruning to show off the bird and made room for a couple of small stone "eggs". I recommend it highly. June 21, 2013
something to sing about. I was drawn to this item as soon as I saw it in the catalog. It is as nice as I thought. I haven't even put it in the yard yet and have received several compliments on it....including from my husband who doesn't like putting anything other than flowers in the garden. I am looking forward to seeing how the birds like using this decorative birds nest, as a bed or a feeder or maybe a plant holder? It will be something to sing about! May 25, 2012
bird nest just the addition I was looking for for my garden. March 7, 2014
Classy Garden Stake Hi, Bird nest garden stake came packaged well, very graceful in detail, solid, pieces screw together easily. Another gift for my Daughter--we placed stake in her garden near Bleeding heart plant-- a container will be placed in nest to hold the Bird seed. It seems I purchase for others all the neat products that Grandinroad offers---that I want. You will be pleased with this sturdy item May 9, 2012
Cutest item Not real tall, but definitely a cute item for the yard. Gotten a lot of compliments on it and asked where I got it, when they went on half price I got one as a gift and another for the yard. I have a beautiful vine growing from the first one. Can't put small things in the nest part for birds to eat because of the design but can put flowers and it looks nice even with nothing in it. August 17, 2012
Beautiful-Great Quality I purchased this as gift for my best friend who recently moved to NC where she can garden almost all year long. She said it is the best quality and prettiest garden decor item she has ever seen. Sent me pictures of it in her garden. I love it so much I also ordered one for myself! Comes unassembled, easy to put together and great for winter storage in my cold Michign climate. May 5, 2012
Bird Nest Garden Stake Before I ordered this I looked around my yard to see where I put it. Then I decided to go ahead and order two so I could have one in the front and one in the back yard. That was a good choice! This garden stake is sturdy and adorable. Two friends that saw it have already ordered the item for themselves. It would also make a great gift. April 30, 2013
Quality Stake I was amazed when I screwed the pieces of this stake together. It carries a lot of detail and everything matched up perfectly. It's a quality piece and is quite attractive. Should be put in an area where you can view the detail. Stake fits securely in the ground. You could get quite imaginative of what can be placed in the nest. Looks good as is, also.. March 25, 2012
Gift for Mom I bought the Bird Nest Garden Stake for my mom for her birthday and she loves it. She does not even have a garden. She keeps it in a large planter full of flowers. I had no problem with ordering or shipping and it was in perfect condition when it arrived. Overall, a good buy. September 2, 2013

ATLANTA - DECEMBER 27: Quarterback Matt Ryan #2 of the Atlanta Falcons waits to re-enter the field against the Buffalo Bills at Georgia Dome on December 27, 2009 in Atlanta, Georgia. (Photo by Kevin C. Cox/Getty Images)
Atlanta Falcons quarterback Matt Ryan still won't criticize his NFL colleagues for leaving him off a list of the league network's top 100 players this summer. Instead, Ryan has turned that slight to his favor. He has emerged as the NFL leader in passer rating, completion percentage and touchdowns. Now in his fifth year, Ryan finally has a top cast of playmakers and a steady play-caller in place. Falcons coach Mike Smith says quick starts on offense allow Ryan to settle into an early, confident rhythm. Atlanta has scored touchdowns on opening possessions of the first three games. Atlanta will try for its first 4-0 start since 2004 on Sunday when Carolina visits the Georgia Dome. --- Online: http://bigstory.ap.org/NFL-Pro32 and http://twitter.com/AP-NFL --- Follow George Henry at https://twitter.com/georgehenryAP
