[quote=italy2010;2300179]Hi to all im gonna to go for quad sli gtx 480 i have 3*zotac gtx480 and im looking to buy another one the only choise i have for the 4th card is gigabayte no zotac in stock now can i mix this brand with my 3 zotac to turn on 4-way sli and is the system is stable in this case mean 3 zotac + 1 gigabyte?
And i have another quastion plz what is the card consumption power only the card how many need the power only him in watt an 12V in amp. just the card not all the system thankz.QUOTE]
Adding a fourth card from Gigabyte will work fine with the 3 Zotac.
A 400 Watt with 36+ Amps total,would power a single 480GTX card.
Problem is that you would be hard pressed to find a 400 watt with 6pin and 8pin,but you could use 2x6pin for 8pin and two molex connections to 6pin to supply enough power the card.
Now if your adding a fourth card and have some extra cash and want a good benchmarking computer.
Buy all the water cooling gear.
Buy/make water-chiller for sub ambient/sub zero temptures and some kneaded art eraser or some other forum for insulating board,card,cpu,memory for 24/7 use.

Re: Official "I just got a Geforce GTX 460/465/470/480" thread
I dropped my load temps a bit more by tweaking the fan profile some more, and adding a 120mm to HAF-X gpu fan shroud. I now load at 75 degrees/75% fan in BFBC2 most of the time. I have seen it peak at 80 on an occasion or so, but it usually floats 75 degrees.
I'm looking forward to seeing what the idle/load temps will be when it isn't 100 outside and 80 in my house like it's been here for the last month. I will be overclocking the piss out of it soon.
Fathom the hypocrisy of a Government that wants to require every citizen to prove they are insured, but does not require them to prove that they are citizens!

A suicide bomber who hid explosives inside his turban killed Kandahar's mayor, an affable, hard-working 65-year-old who was a dual American-Afghan citizen and the third major figure in the southern Afghan city to be assassinated in the past two-and-a-half weeks.
Ghulam Haider Hamidi, who died Wednesday morning, was praised by Afghan and American colleagues as an able administrator who chose to stay and help the city of half a million rather than return to a home he kept in Virginia, where he had worked as an accountant for 20 years.
His death is one of the highest profile examples in a wave of assassinations across Afghanistan, nowhere more obvious than Kandahar, the birthplace of the Taliban and the number one priority of the U.S. surge in 2010. U.S. officials say the tens of thousands of soldiers who arrived in Kandahar province helped eliminate traditional Taliban safe havens. But Afghan officials say they have never felt more vulnerable to assassination than today. In 2011, at least 10 Kandahar officials have been assassinated each month; that number was five last year and one in 2009, according to a tally by the Brookings Institution.
"This guy was the real deal," says a Western official who has worked with Hamidi. "He was committed to a brighter future for Kandahar."
According to Afghan officials, the bombing occurred while Mayor Hamidi was meeting with a delegation from a Kandahar neighborhood about illegal construction of houses on government land. The neighborhood's residents were angry because Hamidi had ordered the demolition of homes that he said were illegally constructed. During the demolition, two children were accidentally killed by a bulldozer.
A young man who walked in with the angry locals detonated a bomb in his turban as Hamidi walked past. The explosion also killed a bystander and wounded Hamidi's bodyguard.
It's not known whether Hamidi was killed by someone seeking revenge for the children's death, or by the Taliban, which claimed credit – or if he died as part of a factional power struggle for the future of the province.
Regardless, the assassination is part of a worrying trend. Two weeks ago, the most powerful man in southern Afghanistan, Ahmed Wali Karzai -- who headed the Kandahar provincial council -- was killed by a longtime associate. At a memorial service for Ahmed Wali Karzai, the province's top religious leader was killed by a suicide bomber who also hid explosives in his turban. And in April, the city's police chief was assassinated by his own bodyguard.
The assassinations threaten one of the main U.S. goals in Afghanistan: building local governments robust enough to protect and respond to its citizens as U.S. soldiers begin to leave. As the assassinations have increased, Afghan officials say they have had a harder time filling vacant positions. And the Western official noted "there was no bench" in Kandahar -- no group of officials qualified to step in.
"There are no replacements in the pipeline, or the replacements don't measure up," the Western official said. "That's pretty obvious to us, and it's pretty obvious to the Taliban."
Western officials in Kandahar described Hamidi as more allied with the U.S.-led effort than any other recent victim of assassination. With a staff of 70, he was responsible for overseeing the only major urban area in southern Afghanistan, where the U.S. and its allies have nearly 70,000 troops and have spent tens of billions of dollars in the last two years. Western officials say he was able to pave roads, increase education levels and hire local Kandaharis through job fairs – a more positive description than most U.S. officials have for the Afghans they work with.
"Mayor Hamidi was a strong leader and voice for a terror-free and progressive Afghanistan," said Rear Adm. Vic Beck, the director of NATO public affairs in Afghanistan, "and we extend our sympathies to his family and friends at this sorrowful time."

Dishwasher does a great job, I generally use the 1 hour wash, becasue my husband rinses all the dishes prior to putting them in the dishwasher, so the shorter cycle works well for us. I cook and he cleans makes a great arrangement since I hate the clean up part anyway. No spotting or streaks on anything when you use JetDry. I was never a big fan of stainless steel, but since that seems to be the trend we purchased stainless. We bought the dishwasher, stove top, wall oven, microwave and fridge. The dishwaher and the fridge seem to be the toughest to keep clean for some reason. The oven, stove top and microwave are a piece of cake to keep clean.

I was expecting a lot from this product, but I was a little disappointed. It seems very small and I can't fit very much in it. Once I put my dinner dishes in the bottom, there is very little room for anything else and no room for pots and pans. Sometimes the dishes do not come out clean and I have to rewash them. I always make sure I use the high temperature scrub because it does a better job of getting the dishes clean. A major disappointment in what I thought was a high quality product and it wasn't cheap.

I really like this dishwasher, with the exception of the top rack. It doesn't seem to be shaped in a way that the small plates will sit in the rack properly.

ClassicsOnline Home » KODALY: Three Chorale Preludes / Cello Sonatas Opp. 8 and 4 > Review List
Maria Kliegel in Kodály's magnificent solo Cello Sonata offers a warm and fanciful performance, powerful and flowing. Jeno Jandó is an outstandingly sympathetic partner in the two-movement Op. 4 Sonata, a performance deeply introspective in the slow first movement and full of fantasy in the Allegro con spirito of the finale. The three Chorale Preludes are romantic arrangements—with the cello generally underlining the chorale melodies—of organ pieces attributed to Bach but now though spurious.

Purdue relies on quartet of freshmen talent to lead the way
Originally Published: March 17, 2008By Adam Rittenberg | ESPN.com
WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. -- The label makes their eyes roll, but Purdue players recognize why it exists.
When you remove the two best pieces from an NCAA tournament team, add four ballyhooed freshmen to a roster with just one senior, mix it up and get an even better product, the result is this: a brand name. The Baby Boilers.
It even has its own Wikipedia entry.

The Invention of the American Meal
Friday, December 13, 2013
Food historian Abigail Carroll describes how our eating habits reveal as much about our national identity as the food on our plates. In Three Squares: The Invention of the American Meal, she shows how the Americans abandoned a rustic, single mid-day meal for complex roasts, sides, desserts, and—increasingly—processed foods.

GREAT segment, thanks!
It's way too easy for commenters on the radio to say things definitely when they really don't know that what they are saying is wrong.
Mess does not derive from mess as in a messy place. It is from the Old French mes or portion of food.
Which over time began to be used as the name of the place where military personnel eat.
VERY interesting!!
Thanks for this!
Interesting that very strong chocolate was considered medicinal. Chocolate contains a stimulant--I've actually gotten quite a buzz from a double (triple?) chocolate cake. So if the colonists' chocolate was that strong, it would be in the same category as tea or coffee for them.

Former Inter Milan striker Adriano is splitting the dressing room at Flamengo.
The Brazil forward is allowed to train when he wants by Flamengo chiefs, which is upsetting some of his teammates.
"Adriano has the right to be treated in a different way, and if he decides not to train then he doesn't train. That's it," director Marcos Braz explained.
"Adriano is worth a sea of money and what he guarantees the club in terms of image and, above all, finances gives him the right to be treated in a different way with respect to all the other players.
"Go and ask all the components of the team if they agree or have problems with Adriano. They are all enthusiastic towards him. After all he is one of the players who worked the most in pre-season."

Syler ft. Skyzoo & Lydia Caesar - Goin' Nowhere
Artist: Syler
Featuring: Skyzoo
Producer: J. Glaze
Album: One Minute to Midnight
Avg Rating: 4.3 ( 9 votes )

Update: We have added the 5.2/Epic Films-directed visuals for Syler's Goin' Nowhere.
Ladies and gentlemen, Syler has arrived—and he ain't Goin' Nowhere. Though the chorus of the NYC emcee/producer's latest single and second DJBooth feature sounds a bit like a threat, I have a feeling Booth readers won't mind having him around. On the contrary, the hard-hitting, polyayllabically-rhymed bars he delivers over J. Glazes's stomping synth/percussion boardwork might just leave y'all hungry for more. B.K. mic-murderer Skyzoo lends his considerable lyrical firepower to verse two, and Lydia Caesar ties the record together with a fiery sung hook. Fans can find Goin' Nowhere and much more on One Minute to Midnight, available at The DJBooth for free download and stream.

Central Michigan 24, Western Kentucky 21
(AP) DETROIT -- On this night, Dan Enos was fine with letting the other coach make the game's most important decision.
"I don't know what I would have done," Enos said. "But I will never second guess a coach for trying to win."
Enos and his Central Michigan Chippewas held on for a 24-21 victory over Western Kentucky on Wednesday night in the Little Caesars Pizza Bowl, stopping the Hilltoppers on fourth-and-2 in the final minute when a field goal could have sent the game to overtime.
Lance Guidry, coaching Western Kentucky on an interim basis with Bobby Petrino set to take over, went for the victory after his players made their feelings known on the matter.
"That was all the players. We were going to kick the field goal, but they told me that they were here to win the game," Guidry said. "I asked everyone and they wanted to go for it so we took the chance."
It didn't work out. On fourth down from the 19-yard line with 51 seconds left, Kawaun Jakes threw incomplete.
Ryan Radcliff had thrown an 11-yard touchdown pass to Cody Wilson with 5:11 remaining to give Central Michigan the lead.
"I couldn't have scripted it any better than my last catch being the winning TD in a bowl game," said Wilson, a senior who had 10 catches for 101 yards on the night.
Western Kentucky (7-6) fell just short in its first bowl since joining college football's top tier in 2009.
Radcliff went 19 of 29 for 253 yards and three touchdowns, but Central Michigan (7-6) needed to rally late.
"We knew we left a lot on the table in the first half, but we made a lot of those plays in the second half," said Enos, who was coaching his first bowl as Central Michigan's coach.
Down 21-17, Zurlon Tipton appeared to have put the Chippewas ahead in the fourth quarter, but his fourth-down run was ruled short of the goal line after a review.
"When we didn't get the touchdown, we knew we had to stop them right there," linebacker Shamari Benton said. "We knew that we just needed to give the offense one more shot."
Central Michigan forced the Hilltoppers to punt from their own end zone, and Avery Cunningham blocked it. Although the ball bounced around for a bit, the Chippewas finally secured it and took over with great field position inside the 30.
Radcliff found Wilson in the back left corner of the end zone for a 24-21 lead.
Western Kentucky's final drive ended when Jakes' pass intended for Jack Doyle fell incomplete.
Petrino, the Hilltoppers' coach-in-waiting, was expected to be at Ford Field watching his new team, but a snowstorm forced him to scrap those plans. Western Kentucky started aggressively.
Down 7-0, the Hilltoppers ran a flea-flicker on their first play from scrimmage, with Antonio Andrews running to his right, then tossing the ball back to Jakes, who found Rico Brown for a 70-yard gain.
Two plays later, Jakes scored on a 6-yard run to tie it.
Central Michigan answered with a 73-yard drive that ended with Andrew Flory's 29-yard touchdown reception, his second of the quarter.
The offenses settled down a bit for the rest of the quarter. Both teams were backed up by a pair of terrific punts. Hendrix Brakefield's 74-yarder pinned Central Michigan at its own 5, but Richie Hogan flipped the field position with a punt that sailed past Andrews and bounced back to the Western Kentucky 12. The 82-yard effort was returned only 4 yards.
David Harman's 50-yard field goal put the Chippewas up 17-7, but Jakes threw a 6-yard touchdown pass to Doyle, with the tight end making a one-handed catch to pull Western Kentucky within three.
The TD pass was the 51st for Jakes, breaking a tie with Justin Haddix atop the school's career list.
Harman had a field goal blocked later in the half, and although the Chippewas were in range for another attempt in the final minute, Radcliff was sacked and fumbled. He was able to recover, but the last few seconds of the half ticked off.
Western Kentucky took a 21-17 lead in the third on a 1-yard scoring run by Kadeem Jones, which capped an 80-yard drive that used 9:23.
Andrews rushed for 119 yards, but he fell short of the 274 all-purpose yards he needed to break the single-season record of 3,250 set by Oklahoma State's Barry Sanders in 1988. Andrews, a junior, had 184 all-purpose yards to finish the season at 3,161.
"I fell short this year, but I'll be going for that record again next year," he said.
Central Michigan took a 7-0 lead on a 69-yard touchdown pass from Radcliff to Flory. Western Kentucky safety Jonathan Dowling whiffed on a tackle near midfield, and Flory was gone.
Dowling had a chance to make up for that mistake early in the third quarter, but with his team down 17-14, he dropped an interception near midfield that he could have easily returned for a touchdown.
Central Michigan (6-6) vs. Western Kentucky (7-5)
Dec. 26, 7:30, ESPN
Here's The Deal …
Motivation won't be an issue.
Western Kentucky might be in a bit of a transitional period as it waits on the certain-to-be-brief Bobby Petrino era to get underway, but this is the program's first bowl game to mark the end of an interesting and speedy journey after a disastrous few seasons.
After moving up into the FBS level in 2007, WKU beat Middle Tennessee early on, but then went from September 20th, 2007 to October 23rd, 2010 – a span of 38 games – without beating an FBS team. 0-12 in 2009 and 2-10 in 2010, WKU went through the growing pains of rebuilding the team under the guidance of one of the brightest young head coaches in the game, Willie Taggart, who came over from Stanford after making Toby Gerhart and the Cardinal running game shine. With a 7-5 and 2011 and a solid 2012, Taggart made the next step accepting the South Florida job, taking over for the fired Skip Holtz. Defensive coordinator Lance Guidry will fill in the gap until Petrino arrives, and he should be able keep the momentum going having coached Miami University to a 2011 GoDaddy.com win over Middle Tennessee after Mike Haywood left to take over the Pitt job.
The Hilltoppers are coming in limping after losing two of their final five games after starting out 5-1 – with the lone loss coming to Alabama – but the defense is terrific, the offense can run, and again, the team should care in its first ever post-season game.
Central Michigan is back in a bowl after struggling for a few seasons following the terrific run under Brian Kelly and Butch Jones. Head coach Dan Enos has had to completely rebuild and reload the program that dominated for a four season stretch with QB Dan LeFevour leading the way to four straight bowl games. The days of being the powerhouse of the MAC are gone, but Enos is slowly turning things back around after a rocky start and a 2-5 beginning to this year, winning four of the last five games to get the program to its seventh bowl appearance.
Formerly the Motor City Bowl, the Little Caesars has been wildly entertaining over the last five seasons with each one decided by five points or fewer. From Purdue's 37-32 win over Western Michigan last year, to FIU's wild 34-32 victory over Toledo in 2010 and Purdue's 51-48 victory over Central Michigan in 2007, this perennially has been among the season's best bowl games. Considering CMU's last bowl game was the best of the 2009-2010 season – a double-overtime 44-41 thriller over Troy in the GMAC, and with their last three bowls decided by a grand total of nine points, this should be an entertaining game.
Players to Watch:
Western Kentucky and Willie Taggart have revolved their teams around the running back, and
Antonio Andrews
has filled the bill in all areas leading the nation in all-purpose yards averaging 248 yards per game as a top kick and punt returner as well as a runner. A workhorse and a slippery 6-0 and 194 pounds, he can do a little of everything, including receiving, but he has been as his best on the ground over the last few games running for 238 yards and two touchdowns on 37 carries in the loss to Louisiana-Lafayette, and running for 230 yards and a touchdown in the win over North Texas to finish the regular season with 1,609 yards and 11 scores, to go along with 34 catches and three touchdowns.
Central Michigan has a terrific workhorse back of its own in
Zurlon Tipton
, a tough runner who ripped off seven straight 100-yard games including a 243-yard, three-score day against Akron to help spark the run to the bowl. While he's not quite the receiver that Andrews is, he can be used in a variety of ways, including as a safety-valve for a passing attack efficient and effective enough to balance out the offense.
Trying to get to Tipton and into the CMU backfield on a regular basis is WKU senior
Quanterus Smith
, the nation's leader in sacks with 12.5, helped by cranking out five against FIU, to go along with 18.5 tackles for loss and a 75-yard fumble return for a score. The 6-5, 246-pounder is a hybrid of a pass rusher and not just a specialist with a tremendous burst off the ball and decent toughness against the run. This is his final showcase game for the pros.
Central Michigan will win if …
it gets the running game going. CMU is 4-1 when getting two or more rushing scores with the lone loss coming in the wild shootout against Western Michigan. With Tipton, the improvement in the running game turned out to be one of the biggest sparks for the second half of the year, while going 0-4 when putting up 107 yards or fewer. On the other side, WKU's slide coincided with problems against the run getting ripped up for 324 yards and three touchdowns to ULL and giving up two rushing scores or more in each of the last three games and five times on the year.
One of CMU's biggest weaknesses has been the punting game with little coming from the returners and nothing happening to get the offense out of jams, but WKU is even worse at kicking the ball averaging a paltry 34.5 yards per boot. This should be a tight game with field position playing a big role, so …
Western Kentucky will win if …
Andrews makes a big difference as a returner. No, the Hilltoppers can't punt, but Andrews is a devastating returner averaging 12.8 yards per punt return and 28 yards per kickoff return. CMU isn't too bad at holding up on kickoffs, but it's 118th in the nation at covering punts allowing 12.76 yards per try and a score – Andrews should break off at least one big play.
Defensively, Smith and the Hilltopper front will get into the backfield against a shaky CMU offensive line. Yes, the Chippewas have been able to pound away over the second half of the season, but that's partly because they've gone against a who's who of weak run defenses. CMU doesn't generate much pressure with little pass rush and few plays behind the line, while WKU is 12th in the nation in tackles for loss and have come up with a Sun Belt-leading 31 sacks on the season. The Hilltoppers can dial it up for a big defensive stop; CMU can't.
What Will Happen:
Will the coaching change matter for Western Kentucky? Will the home cooking give Central Michigan any sort of an advantage? CMU is coming in hot and WKU is coming in cold, and while the Hilltoppers lost to Florida Atlantic at home and hasn't been playing all that well, the defensive pressure is still going to come to bother the Chippewa backfield. Yes, CMU looked great over the final month, but playing Akron, Eastern Michigan, Miami University and UMass helped. WKU will run without a problem, but it'll still be a fight down to the finish thanks to a nice day from Tipton.

Brought to you by Cincy Jungle
According to ESPN, the Cincinnati Bengals have hired -- actually re-hired -- Hue Jackson to be on the team's coaching staff. Jackson was the team's wide receiver coach from 2004 to 2006 before he left offensive coordinator of the Atlanta Falcons in 2007, the quarterback's coach for the Ravens in 2008 and 2009, the offensive coordinator in Oakland in 2010 and eventually the Raiders head coach in 2011. He was fired after his first season as head coach, though, after the team failed to make the playoffs and after he was a major architect of the Carson Palmer trade.
Now, Jackson is returning to the Bengals to help the team as an assistant coach to help the team's secondary and special teams. Jackson was one of the more liked coaches among fans for the Bengals and his return is likely good news for many fans.

2015 Slim's Fishing Derby Results
The 7th annual Slim's Fishing Derby was held on February 14th. Even though most ponds were covered in feet of snow, there were still 244 registrations from people hoping to land the biggest fish, or a chance at the $1000 grand prize.
Fourteen anglers braved the 17-below temperatures to weigh their fish. Winners were a 2.28lb, 19.53" Salmon; 2.99lb, 20.55" Brown Trout; 3.61lb, 19.80" Togue; and a 5lb 19.84" Bass. Three next generation fishermen weighed their fish, with the largest being a 3.5lb, 18.25" Bass. The proud young man who won the kids category will receive a lifetime fishing license.
Even though a blizzard forecast of two feet of snow and 60mph winds shortened the event from two days to one, the derby was still able to award $2600 in prizes and raise more than $2200 for the Jimmy Douglass Memorial scholarship.
The 11-member committee would like to express our appreciation to the many individuals and business who supported the derby with more than $1500 in donations, gift certificates and advertising.
And to all of those who registered to enter the derby: We hope you had a great time and look forward to seeing you all again next year!

Legendary University of Michigan-Flint alumnus Bobby Crim and his wife Marsha are donating $500,000 to the university. The endowment fund will be used for student scholarships.
The Crim family is also giving $500,000 to the Crim Fitness Foundation, which runs the Crim Festival of Races and multiple health, wellness, and training programs year-round.
Crim earned his bachelor's degree from the University of Michigan-Flint in 1960 and earned his teaching certificate from the Ann Arbor campus that same year. He earned his master's degree in Education from U-M Ann Arbor in 1968. In 2009, the University of Michigan-Flint awarded him with an honorary degree.
"Education is a door opener," Crim said. "I would like to help out as much as possible."
Crim founded in 1977 what has become the Crim Festival of Races. At that time it was one race. This weekend's races are expected to draw tens of thousands of people to Flint.
The exact details of how the scholarship gift will be used will be decided, university officials said, but income earned from the endowment will provide future scholarships.
"The gift is important and transformative," said UM-Flint Chancellor Susan E. Borrego. "That it comes from a person with such compassion and humanity makes it that much more powerful. It is a vote of confidence for the University of Michigan-Flint, what we represent, and our role in the community."
Crim made the announcement Thursday at the unveiling of a bronze statue of him competing in the road race. The statue was commissioned by the Crim Fitness Foundation. The organization is receiving $50,000 a year from the Crim family for the next ten years, as its part of the endowment gift.
During his talk Thursday, Crim deflected the attention from himself. Instead, he used his time to laud the volunteers, community members, and others involved with the races and other community projects.
"When I see this statute, I see a community. A tough, resilient, caring community."
After the event, Crim said the University of Michigan-Flint community has left a lasting impact on him.
"It's like coming home," he said, describing the university and what it means to him. "You think of everything the university has done for you, how it has educated you and given you the opportunity in life. It's like a mother and father. You never forget that. You never leave that."

Need to know: Unhappy bankersStrange jobsGoldman dress code
Bank of America Merrill Lynch has lost a senior executive in Australia after its head of banks equities research, Matthew Davison, resigned for a role at U.S. rival Legg Mason, people familiar with the matter said Wednesday.
Mr. Davison will report to Legg Mason's Australian equities chief investment officer, Reece Birtles. Mr. Birtles oversees six funds, some of which focus on dividend income streams, value investing, listed real estate trusts and smaller companies.
Australia's stock market has risen strongly in recent weeks but Macquarie Group Ltd.'s shareholders could be soon be due a wake up call, according to Bank of America Merrill Lynch.
Shares in Australia's only listed investment bank have climbed by a fifth since mid-November to reach a 20-month peak of 36.30 Australian dollars (US$38.12) Tuesday.
BoA-ML analyst Matthew Davison calculates that equates to trading at 1.1 times the Macquarie's book value and 14.3 times estimated earnings in fiscal 2013—higher multiples than U.S.-based rivals Morgan Stanley and Goldman Sachs Group Inc.
Macquarie Group Ltd. has shuffled 4.74 billion Australian (US$4.94 billion) in assets under management between its Banking and Financial Services and Macquarie Funds Group divisions.
"Through Macquarie Funds Group, the Macquarie Professional Series funds will now have access to international flows and distribution," head of communications for Macquarie Banking and Financial Services Group Irene O'Brien told Deal Journal Australia. Ms. O'Brien confirmed more than 20 staff across Australia have moved from her division to Macquarie Funds Group.
Eighteenth-century British nobleman Baron Rothschild famously said: "Invest when there's blood on the streets."
Henderson Group Plc. Chief Executive, Andrew Formica, who helps oversee more than $100 billion of assets worldwide, agrees.
"Europe actually looks very interesting at the moment," Mr. Formica told Deal Journal Australia during a visit to Sydney. "If you look at the return profile of, say, the Chinese market versus the European market, actually the European market has outperformed.
The foremost worry among fund managers has been the same now for longer than most probably feel comfortable with. That being: Europe, Europe, Europe.
The crisis afflicting the euro zone's weakest economies has been consistently winning the battle for the attention in this part of the markets, as financial and economic commentators play tug-of-war with the "will they, won't they" calls on potential exits from the 17-nation bloc.
Amid all the worries that the situation could very quickly deteriorate again, however, there's a niggling fear that has been starting to bother these fund managers, according to Deutsche Bank research sales head Glenn Morgan. That is: What if the worst has come and gone?
Former Hunter Hall deputy chief investment officer Jack Lowenstein is launching boutique funds management firm Morphic Asset Management with former colleague Chad Slater.
Morphic Global Opportunities Fund will invest in global equities, with a mandate to take long positions in companies with a minimum market value of 400 million Australian dollars (US$408 million) and short positions in companies with a minimum market value of A$1 billion.
Australian Kerr Neilson, the world's 601st richest person with wealth of US$2 billion according to Forbes, rates Microsoft Corp. and Google Inc.
"Everyone who's familiar with Microsoft thinks of the operating system which is a gradually dying product, but where they're gaining a lot of traction is remote, or cloud hosting: they've got as many server barns as anyone else," said Mr. Neilson, founder and managing director of the Australian-listed Platinum Asset Management.
"They're also trying to make a mobile phone interface but they've got a partner in Nokia, they may in fact end up buying Nokia," said Mr. Neilson, speaking at the Morningstar Investment Conference in Sydney. "It's just one of those companies which is going to be completely fine." Microsoft last traded at US$31.80 a share.
AMP Capital has boosted its Australian Fundamental Equities team, appointing Ed Rayner and Andy Gardner as senior portfolio manager and portfolio manager respectively.
Mr. Rayner — who had been seconded from AllianceBernstein since Oct. 2011 – will continue to run a core growth strategy when he begins on April 1. His previous employers include UBS Brinson and JP Morgan Investment.
Institutional fund manager QIC Thursday appointed BlackRock Australia's country head Damien Frawley as chief executive.
Mr. Frawley will take on his new role by July 2012 and succeed Doug McTaggart who last year announced his intention to retire.

Whitney Houston Drowned, But Cocaine Played Role in Her Death: Heart Attack Likely
Updated at the bottom: She likely had a heart attack. First posted at 2:28 p.m.
L.A. County coroner's investigators say Whitney Houston drowned when she died at the Beverly Hilton hotel last month. LA Weekly was the first outlet to report that she might have been found in a bathtub, which she was.
The coroner also says that cocaine and atherosclerotic heart disease were contributing factors to her death.
Coke wasn't the only death they found in her system:
Marijuana, Xanax, Flexeril and Benadryl were also found in her system "but did not contribute to the death," according to the coroner's office.
The coroner's office said a final report on her death would be released in about two weeks.
Houston's body was found in her Beverly Hilton hotel room Feb. 11. She was planning to attend the annual pre-Grammy party of music industry mogul Clive Davis.
Reports indicated she was partying and acting erratically in the days leading up to her death.
[Update at 2:44 p.m.]: Coroner's assistant Chief Ed Winter tells the Weekly that Houston likely had a heart attack as a result of the cocaine use and previous heart issues and then drown.
If you use some cocaine and you have a bad heart it can cause you to have a heart attack which can cause you to go underwater. She had a history of heart problems ... cardiovascular disease, and she had been using cocaine.
Did she have a heart attack, we ask.
Well, yeah.
[Update at 3:13 p.m.]:
So what is "atherosclerotic heart disease?" According to the National Heart Lung and Blood Institute, it's ...
... a disease in which plaque (plak) builds up inside your arteries. Arteries are blood vessels that carry oxygen-rich blood to your heart and other parts of your body.
Plaque is made up of fat, cholesterol, calcium, and other substances found in the blood. Over time, plaque hardens and narrows your arteries. This limits the flow of oxygen-rich blood to your organs and other parts of your body.
Atherosclerosis can lead to serious problems, including heart attack, stroke, or even death.
We would assume then, if you have this, cocaine isn't the remedy but, more likely, your enemy.

- Pay freezes for federal employees aren't the end of deficit cutting. Now the administration has announced locality pay in 2011 for civilian federal employees will remain at the same levels as 2010. In a letter to Congress, President Obama said freezing locality pay would not affect the government's ability to attract high quality workers. Locality pay is the differential a worker receives above base pay as a result of living in a more expensive area.
- A final report is due out from the National Commission on Fiscal Responsibility and Reform today. The group's chairmen, promise their final recommendation will be even stronger than the draft released last month. That draft included over $100-billion in domestic cuts as well as deep defense spending cuts. The final plan, members say, will include at least $3.8 trillion in savings. The 14 members of the panel still need to hold a final vote on their recommendations. That final vote is slated for Friday.
- The Food and Drug Administration would get new powers over food safety, if a bill passed by the Senate becomes law. FDA could order recalls and more closely track fruit and vegetable shipments. It could also require food manufacturers to submit safety plans. But producers who sell food locally and have annual revenues of less than $500,000 would be exempt from many of the provisions. The Wall Street Journal reports, the House is expected top pass the Senate version. But there may not be time for that in the lame duck session.
- Airlines that fly to the US will no longer be responsible for matching the names of passengers against the terror watch list. The Transportation Security Administration says the move will reduce false matches and prevent attacks. With the new rule in place, all 197 airlines must submit the names, genders and birthdates of passengers to the TSA. Those passengers are then checked against the terror watch list before they can fly. The program - called 'Secure Flight' - was delayed for years because of privacy concerns. It was one of the recommendations of the 9/11 Commission.
- Audits by the Office of Personnel Management, are finding problems with the way some Combined Federal Campaign charities are raising money. The FederalTimes reports of 17 CFCs audited recently, almost all were flagged for fiscal mismanagement or budget issues by OPM. The audits reveals tens of thousands of dollars in un-allowable expenses and other budget issues, but both the Inspector General's office and OPM officials acknowledge it's part of a broader management problem. CFCs generated almost $283 million in pledges from federal employees and military members during its 2009 fund-raising drive.
- A rewrite of a government performance law will allow contractors to continue providing crucial administrative support to agencies. The bipartisan Government Performance and Results Modernization Act defined creation of required reports as inherently governmental. But contractors and some agencies worried that banning use of contractors to help develop performance plans would be be too severe. GovExec reports, compromise language has kept the bipartisan bill on track by permitting contractor support.

The Vacation Kings return
Tuesday - 6/10/2014, 2:00am EDT
Congress is back at work (again) this week. Its most recent vacation, last week, technically lasted only a week. But as with many things Congress does and doesn't do, appearances can be deceptive.
In reality, some members actually had a lot more time off. They are charter and new members of the TWT Club. That stands for Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday — the days when many are actually in Washington. Most of them leave town late Thursday or early Friday and return in time for work Monday. If you doubt it, check out the Free VIP parking areas at Washington's Reagan National Airport. Most members of Congress keep their home-state license plates so they are easy to spot.
One theory about the high number of paid days off for members of the House and Senate is that they are indignant much of the time. And indignation takes its toll. Many, if not most, members of Congress spend a lot of time being indignant about something or other, especially in off-year elections. Like 2014.
The fact that the presidency isn't at stake in this year's elections means a lot fewer people are tuning in, and the number of people who actually vote in November will probably be down. That's good news for some politicians, bad news for others — especially incumbents who face strong challenges.
Fortunately for politicians, there are a number of things to be indignant about this year. Both ways. There is the VA scandal, which is yet to be fully explained, attacked and defended. And the prisoner swap where five Guantanamo detainees were traded for an American soldier who has been in Taliban hands for five years. Although promoted twice during his captivity, critics of the swap say there is a lot we don't know. Although it is shaping up along partisan lines — Democrats saying we don't leave soldiers behind, Republicans saying maybe we should have in this case — some members are furious the required 30-day alert wasn't given.
Whatever happens with the VA and the prisoner swap, it is going to be a long, hot summer. With at least two winners:
- The 24/7 cycle news media. It loves indignation because it
gives drama and color even when things are otherwise. The more heads that roll,
the better.
- Federal workers almost certainly will benefit from indignation fever. Because while Congress is busy being indignant (not to mention running for reelection), it is distracted from playing whack-a-mole with feds.
For most feds, 2014 promises to be better (as in more peaceful) than last year. Enjoy it while you can.
Explorers Meriwether Lewis and William Clark, tasked by President Thomas Jefferson with mapping out the newly acquired western territory of the United States in the early 1800s, remained relatively unknown for 150 years after their expedition. It wasn't until the 1960s that popular historical interest picked up and the duo became more widely known.

Feds interested in phased
retirement left playing waiting game
The Office of Personnel Management now says it hopes to have regulations governing phased retirement finalized by October. That can't come soon enough for many federal employees on the cusp of retirement who are caught in the regulatory limbo.
