Updated from 11:54 a.m ET with afternoon market action and Huntington's interest rate shock analysis showing benefits of rising rates.
NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- Huntington Bancshares (HBAN - Get Report) is an excellent play for investors looking for a bank stock that will benefit when short-term rise, according to Bank of America Merrill Lynch analyst Erika Penala.
In a report on Thursday, Penala wrote that in light of the recent spike in market rates for 10-year U.S Treasury bonds, her research team updated its proprietary rate scorecard for banks. The analysts found that the regional banking names covered by their firm that would see the greatest earnings benefit from an increase in short-term rates included Zions Bancorporation (ZION - Get Report), Comerica (CMA - Get Report), KeyCorp (KEY - Get Report), Huntington and Fifth Third Bancorp (FITB - Get Report).
Penala has neutral ratings on all the above names, except for Huntington Bancshares of Columbus, Ohio, which she rates a "buy," because the stock's valuation is "still reasonable," amid a strong rally for bank stocks. Her price target for the shares is of $8.00.
|Huntington CEO Stephen Steinour
While including Huntington as the only buy-rated name among covered regional banks best-positioned for rising short-term rates Penala also said that Huntington was among two regional banks "best positioned to defend" their net interest margins, also including Capital Bank Financial (CBF) of Coral Gables, Fla., which she also rates a "buy," with a price target of $23.00.

Islamic Law and SocietyJewish-Islamic comparative law is a relatively underdeveloped field...What few studies there are have tended to restrict themselves to determining Jewish antecedents for Islam, and even those normally focus on ritual, not law. Libson's study of the use of custom by the geonim and its connection to Islamic law is a novel and welcome corrective. This excellent study shows that the relationship between Jewish law and the Islamic law is much more complex than is normally assumed. Libson's familiarity with the ancient texts and current scholarship of both Jewish law and Islamic law is truly remarkable.

Long Description to add
Prune and Apple Galettes
If you can get mi-cuit plums, the lovely squashy half-dried Agen prunes from France, so much the better. If not, then pitted dried Agen prunes will be fine.
Torta di Mele
Apple tart to you and me: this Italian version of our good old apple pie is totally addictive, so if you fancy a change from the usual desserts, give it a go.
Alain's Passion Fruit Brulee
My thanks to Alain Benech, our very French chef at the football club, whom I persuaded to part with his delicious recipe for you all to make. Whenever it goes on the menu, it's very popular and always sells out.
Little Mincemeat Souffle Puddings
Don't let the word souffle put you off - these are very easy to make and can even be reheated or frozen! Serve them with Chilled Rum Sabayon for the finishing touch...
A Very Chocolatey Mousse
So easy and loved by everyone who eats it: isn't it time to revisit this classic French dessert?
Austrian Coffee and Walnut Cake with Coffee Cream
This is unashamedly rich and luscious. Firstly, coffee and walnuts have a great affinity; secondly, so do coffee and creaminess; and thirdly, because the cake is soaked in coffee syrup, it's also meltingly moist.
Christmas Pudding Jellies with Cider Syllabub
Lovely light jellies for those who find a traditional Christmas pudding just a little too filling after all that goose or turkey! The cider adds frothy bubbles to the syllabub as long as you make it just before serving...
Christmas Pudding (Without the Pudding) with Marsala Syllabub
For those who don't like Christmas pudding, Delia has taken all those spicy fragrances and flavours of Christmas, and made them into a very slowly cooked compote in Marsala wine, so that all the wonderful flavours can develop and mingle together.
Old English Apple Hat
Instead of the usual apple pie, why not ring the changes on a cold day with the sumptous steamed pud? Perfect for the depths of winter, it also fits the bill on a cold autumn day when apples are at their best.
Easy Caramelised Orange Trifle with Madeira
In my 'real cooks' Christmas book, the caramelised orange trifle takes an absolute age to prepare – though it is, of course, superlative; the best of its kind. But I have to say that this easy version is also a real winner. I find there are those who

Police: Crash injures passengers
RANDOLPH A woman suffered life-threatening injuries and a Barre man received serious facial injuries in a one-vehicle crash in Randolph on Sunday morning after which the driver ran from the scene, Vermont State Police said.
Kyle Larrabee, 19, of Roxbury, was cited on charges of driving under the influence resulting in a serious injury, gross negligent operation resulting in a serious injury, leaving the scene of an accident and driving with a suspended license.

Northwestern wins at reeling Illinois
CHAMPAIGN, Ill. (AP)
Northwestern and Illinois were both looking to bounce back from bad blowouts Thursday night, games where neither team could shoot or play defense.
Only the Wildcats improved, extending No. 23 Illinois' losing streak to three games while handing the Illini a 68-54 home loss that could cost them their Top 25 ranking.
After starting slow against Iowa and never catching up in the 70-50 whipping, Northwestern coach Bill Carmody was looking for a faster start.
The Wildcats (11-7, 2-3 Big Ten) delivered with a barrage of 3-pointers early and 10 points in the first 10 minutes from Reggie Hearn.
''They really came out tonight and played well,'' Carmody said. ''Hearn was very good early. ... If they make shots you're a good coach.''
Illinois (14-5, 1-4) has lost five of seven after its 12-0 start and fallen near the bottom of the Big Ten.
Coach John Groce, frustrated on a night that he was called for e technical foul for arguing with the officials, said his team's defense was absent early Thursday. And Northwestern took advantage of it.
''The first 10 minutes they were a juggernaut,'' Groce said. ''I didn't think we did anything whatsoever to be disruptive and take them out of that.''
FOXIEST FANSCheck out the FOXiest fans from arenas across the country and tweet us your photo.
Hearn's hot start included two 3-pointers.
The second of them, buried with just over 10 minutes left in the first half, put the Wildcats up 21-12.
The were 8 of 15 from 3-point range for the game but hit five of them in the first half to build a 36-21 lead.
And Northwestern made 26 of 31 free throws, many of them late with Illinois forced to foul.
The cold-shooting Illini closed within 48-39 on a free throw by Brandon Paul with 4:36 to play. Illinois would get no closer, watching the Wildcats make free throws that Carmody said were the difference down the stretch.
''We were making some foul shots helped and it kept that distance for us,'' Carmody said.
Jared Swopshire had 12 points and six rebounds for Northwestern, while Alex Marcotullio scored 12 points and Dave Sobolewski added 10 before fouling out late.
Paul had 21 points for Illinois, which shot 38 percent from the field, including going 3 of 20 from 3-point range.
Illinois opened the second half with two things that had been missing in the first, intensity and defensive pressure. Where first-half points sometimes came in easy waves for the Wildcats, early in the second Illinois made them work.
But with the cold shooting — they opened the second half hitting 4 of 11 from the field and were just 1 of 6 from 3-point range — the Illini didn't make up any ground.
Marcotullio's 3-pointer with 12:53 left pushed Northwestern's lead to 45-30, the same 15-point margin they had at halftime.
Paul finally ended a scoreless run of just over 5 minutes for Illinois with a layup with 9:35 left to play, trimming the Wildcats' lead to 45-32.
Groce's frustration was apparent.
He drew a technical foul for shouting at the officials with just under 11 minutes left in the game.
''That's enough! You've got to calm down,'' referee Jim Burr shouted at Groce along the sideline.
CHEERS!They're part of the magic every season. Enjoy our photo-gallery tribute to college basketball cheerleaders.
Swopshire missed both free throws — rare Northwestern misses — but the Wildcats didn't need the points.
Moments later a member of the Orange Krush student section was escorted out of the Assembly Hall after being tossed by Burr.
Groce and the fans were on the officials much of the night for what they saw as missed calls, but Groce declined to discuss the officiating.
''I don't want to talk about it or get into it,'' he said. ''If I did I'd have less money for shopping.''
From the opening moments, it was not the Illini's night, and there were any number of examples.
There was Nnanna Egwu's big block on Alex Olah's short jumper with 4:25 to play in the first half. With their team already down 30-17, the Illinois crowd seized on the moment, releasing a roar of collective relief. Before the noise had even faded, Olah grabbed the rebound and tucked it into the basket.
And there was the Illini's final first-half possession. Trailing 36-21, they had three chances to cut that lead and pocket something to build on in the final 20 minutes. But three chances yielded three misses, and the team trotted quietly off the court.
The problem is, it hasn't been Illinois' night in a couple of weeks.
Since they upset then-No. 8 Ohio State on Jan. 5, the Illini are 0-3. And there hasn't been a close game in the bunch, losing by 17 to Minnesota, a stunning 23 at Wisconsin and by 14 at home to Northwestern.
The Wildcats finished 15 of 51 (29.4 percent) from the field and 5 of 26 from 3-point range in the loss to Iowa.
On Thursday, they made up for it, shooting 47.2 percent from the field. Hearn was 4 of 7, including 3 of 5 on 3-pointers, and 9 of 10 from the free throw line.
''It's a very good win for us, especially on the road,'' Carmody said. ''I thought our defense was pretty solid and we made shots.''

If you couldn't make it to TechEd - or even if you did - check out Virtual TechEd.
I loved attending Tech Ed this year because I had a chance to be at the Open XML File Formats booth and chat with MVPs and developers that are really passionate about this technology. It was great week to be there because we launched the Open XML SDK and there was a lot of interest in the new API. In case you haven't seen all the Open XML SDK news and announcements, Doug Mahugh has a great blog post with useful links and the whole story.
I also had a great opportunity to meet and share booth duty with Stephanie Krieger and Doug Mahugh.
Stephanie Krieger is a Microsoft Office MVP and the master of document production. Stephanie is the author of the Office 2007 documents bible: Advanced Microsoft Office Documents 2007 Edition Inside Out. This is the book you need if you want to learn tons of cool tips and tricks for advanced document generation. Stephanie included Office Open XML and VBA code samples.
It was so fun to hang out with her because I got private black-belt lessons about Office 2007 documents. One of the things Stephanie showed me was the super cool Office Online interactive reference guides. This is a fun set of tools to use if you are getting started with Office 2007 and trying to figure where commands are located.
If you want your own private lesson with Stephanie, you should check out her blog and her webcast Advanced Tips and Tricks: What You Can Really Do with Your Documents Across the 2007 Office Release.
Doug Mahugh is the traveling encyclopedia of the Open XML File Formats. He has visited all continents to share with the community the latest tips and tricks for developing solutions using the Open XML File Formats. He has one of the most visited and coolest MSDN blogs and he has quite a following. I was surprised by how many people were looking for him at the booth.
Doug delivered two great sessions at Tech Ed: Office Open XML File Format Fundamentals and Working with Custom Schemas in the 2007 Microsoft Office System. He is currently traveling all around the globe delivering Office Open XML workshops. Last time I saw him, he was returning from Africa. Read Doug's personal blog and follow him around the globe.
I also had a chance to meet Stephen Peront, a co-founder of XINNOVATION, Inc. Stephen is so smart! He managed to learn the Open XML API and migrate a PowerPoint presentation generator tool in a weekend. He demoed the before and after code at the Office Open XML File Format Fundamentals session and it just made me proud to see in action a happy consumer of the first release of the Open XML API. You can find all details about Stephen's tool and adventures with the Open XML API here: Announcing the API with a hands-on example.
I also met Mick Lohan. He is the Technical Director of South East Software and a great enthusiast for the Open XML File Formats. He is Irish and he gave me a "Celtic Sounds & Songs" CD as a gift for answering some Open XML questions. I have to say that Irish people are the best. They are super fun, smart, and nice. Mike has a nice blog and he compiled a huge number of pictures at Tech Ed.
Finally, I met the Altova team. They were very nice to give me a demo of the new XMLSpy. If you work with XML technologies it comes quite handy to have an XML editor tool and XMLSpy rocks. Altova announced at Tech Ed some great news for Office developers. They just released a new version of XMLSpy that provides support for accessing, editing, transforming, and querying XML data saved in Microsoft® Office 2007 documents and other zipped files. My favorite feature is the intellisense support. It's really helpful when you are working with WordProcessingML. You can find a free trial and all info here: http://www.altova.com/features_office_2007.html
The Open XML File Formats booth gang
This is me in my new orange dress with the Open XML Gang: Stephen Peront, Stephanie Krieger, and Doug Mahugh.
The Microsoft Office Developer booth
I visited every now and then my friends at this booth. Jim Corbin aka Mr. Project Server was at this booth doing demos of an Office Business Application solution and the Microsoft Office Interactive Developer Map.
MSDN news and the Microsoft super heroes gang!
I get to work with all of them, so it was cool that I got my picture with my v-team J.
MSDN launched recently a new UI (Tobago) and the MSDN gang showcased the new navigation and search improvements. Verna Appel DeLuna and Karen Bass from MSDN migrated the MSDN Office Developer Center last week to the new UI. In case you haven't seen it, come look!
MSDN also ran demos for the three new Microsoft Community Betas.
The Atlantis Shuttle launch with the IIS gang
My lovely husband CarlosAg and friends from IIS kidnapped me to go watch the launch of Atlantis. This was such a happy ending for Tech Ed and an experience I'll share with my kids one day. Thank you Brian for organizing such a fun trip! BTW. Brian is Irish too.
Interesting fact. The Atlantis crew landed last Friday (6/22). Can you believe it took them less time to go to space and come back, than the time it took me to download my Tech Ed 2007 pictures and blog?
Part 2 of this blog will list the top ten questions from the Open XML File Formats booth. I'll provide answers with code samples and pointers to resources.
We just published a must see paper written by Patrick Tisseghem of U2U, Mike Fitzmaurice, and heavy consultation from Mike Ammerlaan:
Have you wanted information on how to package Web Parts, event receivers, list/feature/site definitions into solutions? How to deploy those solutions from a development environment to a test environment into production? How application assets deployment is different from content deployment? How to push a new version of a Web Part/feature/application page out to a site that has the old version already in production?
This paper covers it. Go get it!
What a day at Tech ED! Today Doug Mahugh announced during his session the new Open XML Object Model and Brian Jones has a must see post in his blog.
The Open XML object model encapsulates many common tasks that developers perform on Open XML packages, so you can perform complex operations with just a few lines of code. As you can imagine, this API is a great time saver for those of you that write code to manipulate Open XML packages using the System.IO.Packaging APIs. I was lucky enough to play with this API some weeks before the release and I strongly recommend that you download your copy and get your hands dirty. I can tell you that with this new API you write ~70% less code.
The following is a partial class diagram of the API.
My dear friend Frank Rice did a fantastic job creating an SDK for the API. We included the previous diagram and some how-to articles that Frank and I wrote J. You can download the SDK and the API from this link: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyId=AD0B72FB-4A1D-4C52-BDB5-7DD7E816D046&displaylang=en
Additionally you can find online documentation here: http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb448854.aspx
Some must see MSDN topics:
Keep in mind this is a CTP, so we are expecting to get a lot of customer feedback to polish this API into a better one.
If you are at Tech ED, you should stop by at the Open XML File Formats booth. Stephanie, Doug, and I will be happy to chat with you.
If you are not at Tech Ed and are interested in providing feedback, you can submit a post at the Microsoft SDK Open XML MSDN Forum. Additionally, if you want to submit feedback about the documentation, you can use our Wiki enabled articles in MSDN.
Have fun with the API and PLEASE let us know what you think.
Just a quick and late night blog entry after packing my blue Microsoft T-shirts :). I am looking forward to being at TechEd this year in Orlando and will be at the Open XML File Formats booth.
Watch the news and check out techedbloggers here:
Hope to see there!

Haslem says Heat ready to defend their title. Shocking.
Sep 24, 2012, 1:57 PM EDT
Last June's Miami Heat title was not the first trip down the parade route for Udonis Haslem. He was part of the Miami Heat's 2006 title team.
That would be the one that came back in no condition mentally to defend its title. One that fell apart as quickly as any champion in recent memory.
Haslem, one of the veteran leaders of the Heat, says he is not going to let that happen again. Granted, the situation on the Heat is pretty different this time around, nonetheless Haslem told the Miami Herald this Heat squad is ready to take on 29 challengers (hat tip SLAM).
"I think it's not necessarily about being a different group. It's about the right mindset," Haslem said. "I don't think with the '06 team we really understood what mindset we had to come in with as returning champions….
"I think now we understand what our mindset has to be," he said, "because the level of expectation has been raised a notch, and we understand that."
That 2006 Heat team was not built for the long run, unless you think Shaq was suddenly going to be motivated to focus on conditioning. This Heat team has its core players at their peak. But Haslem is right about the mindset.
I still contend what makes the Heat the most dangerous this coming season is they figured out who they are. They found an identity last season and into the playoffs, there is no more guesswork. That said, it's a long, long way to the finals next June. It's a marathon.
Haslem just thinks they are ready to run it.

It's going to be a great season. Lots of loaded teams at the top, lots of new bad blood between the Thunder and Spurs/Lakers/Mavericks. I hate the Lakers but I'm glad they reloaded for the season, will make it that much more fun to watch.
- miamatt - Sep 24, 2012 at 10:45 PM
@michaeljordanseviltwin, I couldn't agree more. I can't wait to watch the Lakers, and even in today's "we're all very rich and very good friends" NBA, there are healthy rivalries among the teams you mentioned, to say nothing of Heat/Celtics.
I'm also interested to see if teams like Indiana or the Clippers can take the next step, and how much improvement we'll see from the Twolves and Hornets.

Some City Trees May Discourage Against Crime
New study explores relationship between urban trees and crime
Along with energy conservation and storm-water reduction, scientists may soon be adding crime-fighting to the list of benefits that urban trees provide. Researchers with the U.S. Forest Service's Pacific Northwest (PNW) and Southern Research Stations have published a new study that suggests that certain types of city trees may help lower property and violent crime rates. Their study""which is posted online in advance of its appearance in a forthcoming printed issue of the journal Environment and Behavior""is the first to examine the effects of trees and other factors on crime occurrence in Portland, Ore.
"We wanted to find out whether trees, which provide a range of other benefits, could improve quality of life in Portland by reducing crime, and it was exciting to see that they did," said Geoffrey Donovan, research forester with the PNW Research Station who led the study. "Although a burglar alarm may deter criminals, it won't provide shade on a hot summer day, and it certainly isn't as nice to look at as a tree."
Donovan and his colleague Jeffrey Prestemon, with the Southern Research Station, obtained crime data from the Portland Police Bureau from 2005 to 2007 and grouped the incidents into seven categories. They examined only crimes for which a physical address was given and paired this information with additional data obtained from aerial photographs, onsite visits, and the Multnomah County Tax Assessor's Office. Their sample of 2,813 single-family homes experienced 394 property and 37 violent crimes.
The researchers then conducted statistical analyses to explore the relationships among crime and more than two dozen variables they compiled, including the number and size of trees on a lot and the size of trees on surrounding areas. Of the tree variables analyzed, canopy size of both street and yard trees and the number of trees growing on a lot had the most effect on crime occurrence""large trees were associated with a reduction in crime, while numerous small trees were associated with an increase.
"We believe that large street trees can reduce crime by signaling to a potential criminal that a neighborhood is better cared for and, therefore, a criminal is more likely to be caught," Donovan said. "Large yard trees also were associated with lower crime rates, most likely because they are less view-obstructing than smaller trees."
In contrast, their analysis suggested that small yard trees might actually increase crime by blocking views and providing cover for criminals""an effect that homeowners can mitigate by keeping trees pruned and carefully choosing the location of new trees.
Donovan and Prestemon plan to continue this line of research and may conduct similar studies in other cities.

Hoping to salvage their designs on the Massachusetts gaming market, Mohegan Sun and Suffolk Downs, the Boston-area horse track, announced Wednesday that they've struck a deal to build and operate a $1 billion resort casino on 42 acres the track owns in the small, oceanfront city of Revere.
The announcement came little more than three weeks after voters — most of them, at least — rejected the partners' previous proposals.
In Palmer, in western Massachusetts, voters on Election Day narrowly defeated Mohegan Sun's plan for a resort casino off Exit 8 of the Massachusetts Turnpike. On the same day, East Boston voters soundly rejected a Suffolk Downs proposal that would have incorporated track-owned property in East Boston and Revere. At the same time, voters in Revere endorsed the project.
Suffolk Downs had been seeking a partner since calling on Caesars Entertainment to withdraw from the original Suffolk Downs project after the Massachusetts Gaming Commission questioned Caesars' "suitability" during background checks.
It is not yet clear whether the commission will permit the Suffolk Downs-Mohegan Sun partnership to propose a project located entirely in Revere. The new partners, nevertheless, hailed their alliance.
"This is a historic day for the City of Revere, Suffolk Downs and all of New England," Richard Fields, Suffolk Downs' principal owner, said in a statement. "By choosing Mohegan Sun as our resort casino developer and operator, we bring new energy and excitement to our pursuit of a gaming license — and a leader and premier brand in resort casino gaming that has been hugely successful in New England for 17 years."
In addition to Mohegan Sun, the Mohegan Tribe's flagship property in Uncasville, the Mohegan Tribal Gaming Authority operates Mohegan Sun at Pocono Downs, a casino and race track in Wilkes-Barre, Pa., and Resorts Casino Hotel in Atlantic City. The authority also is involved with developers seeking a gaming license in Philadelphia and is hoping to pursue a casino project in New York's Catskills region.
Mitchell Etess, the Mohegan authority's chief executive officer, said he was excited about the opportunity to create "something truly special" in Revere. "Our planners have only had a short amount of time to look at it, but we're sure we can come up with something that is a regional gathering place and that is also a national and international gaming attraction," he said.
While Mohegan Sun's Palmer proposal called for a 70,000-square-foot water park, Etess said it was too soon to say whether the Revere plan would include a similar feature.
"It's possible," he said. "We're looking at all different designs. We haven't made any determinations about specific amenities, about whether it will have a water park or not. … We have a vision."
Mohegan Sun left some bitterness in its wake in western Massachusetts, where a recount Tuesday of the Nov. 5 referendum certified that the Palmer casino project had been defeated by 94 votes. More than 5,200 votes were cast.
Spokesmen for Palmer business groups and one town official have accused Mohegan Sun of abandoning the town to pursue a deal with Suffolk Downs. They have criticized Mohegan Sun's plan to continue leasing the 152 acres where the Palmer casino was to be built, saying it's a ploy to prevent another casino operator from developing the site.
The Mohegan Tribe, which owns Mohegan Sun, has said it will consider pursuing non-gaming development on the property.
In a letter Monday to the gaming commission, Paul Burns, a Palmer town councilor, complained about Mohegan Sun.
"Mohegan's loss at the polls three weeks ago was not the result of a divided community; rather, it is the result of a conflicted casino company more focused on ensuring their financial viability and protecting their CT property than they were on securing a (casino) license," Burns wrote. "… While I am not sure what the process would be, I think it is important that the commission examine ways to address what I view as a clear betrayal of the commitment so many of us made to this process."
Etess maintained that Mohegan Sun did not engage in talks with Suffolk Downs until well after the Election Day referendum in Palmer. He said Mohegan Sun began negotiations with Suffolk Downs "when it became clear, based on what we were hearing, that the recount wasn't going to change anything."
"The only reason we're not in Palmer today is because the people of Palmer didn't want us," he said. "We spent years and years and millions and millions of dollars in Palmer — but that can't change the outcome of the referendum."
Meeting Tuesday
Mohegan Sun and Suffolk Downs still need the gaming commission's approval to submit a Revere casino plan by a Dec. 31 deadline. The commission heard last week from several individuals who testified about the viability of a Suffolk Downs proposal located only in Revere as opposed to East Boston and Revere. Some said the East Boston voters' rejection of the original Suffolk Downs plan prohibits Suffolk Downs from offering a retooled version.
"After listening to that testimony, the commission decided that the best course of action was to have members of our legal team conduct a thorough analysis of the legislation as it pertains to this unique circumstance and to report out its finding to the commission at a later date," Elaine Driscoll, a commission spokeswoman, said Wednesday in an email.
The commission is scheduled to take up the matter when it meets Tuesday in Boston. At issue, potentially, is whether the "host community agreement" Suffolk Downs reached with Revere can still apply to a new proposal.
"We're very comfortable that the host community agreement can be amended," Etess said.
The agreement will call for millions of dollars in annual payments to Revere as well as investments in municipal projects and transportation and infrastructure improvements. The casino project would create 2,500 construction jobs and 4,000 permanent jobs, according to Suffolk Downs.
The gaming commission has granted positive "suitability" determinations to Suffolk Downs and to Mohegan Sun and its financial partner, Brigade Capital Management.
Brigade was to provide 60 percent of the equity financing for the Palmer project, with Mohegan Sun to provide the rest. Etess said the financial structure of the Revere project would be similar. He also said that while no name has been chosen for the Revere resort, it definitely would be a Mohegan Sun-branded property.
The Suffolk Downs project could have to compete for the one Greater Boston casino license the commission is expected to award next year. Las Vegas-based Wynn Resorts has proposed a $1.2 billion project for Everett, a city that borders Revere. Foxwoods Resort Casino, a partner in a third Greater Boston project, was eliminated from contention when Milford voters rejected it in a Nov. 19 referendum.
Mohegan Sun's defeat in Palmer leaves one contender for the one western Massachusetts casino license — MGM Resorts, which has proposed a Springfield project.

Agreed. That's the point that I've been trying to drive home with him the entire time (and always mentioned "4870" so he knew I wasn't just referencing Nvidia cards.) Different architectures, different memory management. The best control test would be the exact same card with more VRAM on one of those.
My guess is the benches will come close to the 2900XT when it was released. Not much of a difference, if any.

Scuderi Group Announces Partners Assisting in the Development of the Scuderi Air-Hybrid Engine
The Scuderi Group, developers of what is expected to be the world's most fuel-efficient internal combustion engine, today announced several ongoing development partners who are assisting in the research and development of the Scuderi Air-Hybrid Engine.
(The Scuderi Group's podcast about its engine development partners is available at www.airhybridblog.com).
These partners include:
— Mahle (http://www.mahle.com), headquartered in Germany and one of the world's largest automotive suppliers, Mahle is providing the pistons for the Scuderi Engine.
— Cargine Engineering (http://www.cargine.com/index.html) is a Swedish company that develops combustion engine technology. The Scuderi Air-Hybrid uses Cargine's air-actuated valves in its breakthrough split-cycle engine design and cross-over chamber.
— Convergent Science (http://convergecfd.com/), based in Middleton, Wis., develops Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) software for analyzing computer simulations. Convergent has assisted the Scuderi Group and its independent research laboratory with critical CFD studies.
— Schaeffler Group (http://www.schaeffler.com), based in Germany and a maker of precision components for engines, Schaeffler is contributing to the valve train assembly.
— Gates Corporation (http://www.gates.com/), headquartered in Denver, a supplier of automotive products, supplies the belts for the Scuderi Engine.
Previously in February, The Scuderi Group announced that it is partnering with Germany-based Bosch Engineering GmbH on development of the Scuderi Engine's fuel injection system.
"Our numerous development partners have been a critical part of our success in designing the Scuderi Engine," said Sal Scuderi, president of the Scuderi Group. "Their expertise and technological innovation enable us to continually reach our development milestones."
The Scuderi Split-Cycle Engine is expected to provide significant improvements in the area of power, efficiency, and environmental protection. The results of state-of-the-art modeling and testing indicate:
— Fuel efficiency significantly higher than in today's gasoline and diesel engines
— Nitrous emissions up to 80 percent less than that of today's gasoline and diesel engines
— Improved performance of hybrid engines
— Considerably more torque and power over conventional engines
— Minimal increased manufacturing and tooling costs due to use of similar or common components
Through the addition of a small compressed air storage tank with only a few control elements costing only a few hundred dollars, the Scuderi Engine can recover the energy that is normally lost when a vehicle is decelerated. To apply this principle in an electric hybrid vehicle, a complex electrical system is needed that costs thousands of dollars and consists of generators, motors, and batteries. The Scuderi Air-Hybrid, unlike electric hybrids, also has the unique ability to recapture energy from the engine's exhaust stream.
About The Scuderi Group
Based in West Springfield, Mass., USA, with offices in Frankfurt, Germany, the Scuderi Group is a company focused on proliferating its technology through R&D and licensing. Its revolutionary Scuderi Air-Hybrid Engine Technology is the most significant improvement in engine performance in decades and can be applied to any internal combustion engine.

20 August 2013 16:49 [Source: ICIS news]
TORONTO (ICIS)--Lacking demand growth is the real issue facing the global potash industry, a Canadian analyst said on Tuesday in commenting on the turmoil caused by the break-up of the Russian/Belarusian export marketing group.
Fai Lee, equity analyst at Vancouver-based investment firm Odlum Brown, said that while the announcement last month of the Uralkali/Belaruskali break-up prompted a sharp decline in valuations of global potash producers, it was important to focus on the market fundamentals.
"Specifically, global potash demand has not grown as expected, which is creating a number of issues for the industry," Lee said.
While potash industry capacity grew by 10m tonnes/year from 2007-2013 to an expected 66m tonnes/year by the end of 2013, global potash demand has not kept pace, Lee said.
"Through this six-year period, potash demand was dampened by uncertainty arising from the [2008/2009] 'Great Recession', tepid economic conditions globally, protracted purchase contract negotiations with major buyers in China and India, and a major reduction in fertilizer subsidies in India," the analyst said.
As a result, potash demand in 2013 is expected to be at almost the same level as in 2007, when it was around 56m tonnes/year, he said.
Lee said that the recent dispute between Uralkali and Belaruskali could be viewed as "simply a symptom of the lack of global potash demand growth, which likely has encouraged Belaruskali to make potash shipments outside of its formal arrangement with Uralkali."
If global potash demand had actually grown at its average expected rate of 3% annually from 2007-2013, global potash demand in 2013 would be about 66m tonnes/year instead of the current estimate of 56m tonnes/year, he said.
"In other words, potash market conditions would be fairly tight under this scenario rather than oversupplied," Lee said.
Going forward, Lee forecast a "modest demand growth scenario", supported by world population growth and continued economic growth in developing countries, including ?xml:namespace>
"In our opinion, many of the issues currently facing the potash industry could be easily resolved by modest demand growth over time," he said.
"For example, more demand would lead to higher utilisation rates and higher potash prices, and existing excess supply could be absorbed and new capacity additions would be required in the future to keep the market in balance," he said.
As such, the volatility in potash valuations created opportunities for long-term investors, he said. He advised investors to be "opportunistic" in adding to their portfolio positions over the next few months.
In related news on Tuesday, Anglo-Australian mining major BHP Billiton said that it would continue to invest in its Jansen potash mining project in
Jansen is "the world's best undeveloped potash resource, capable of supporting a mine with annual capacity of 10m tonnes for more than 50 years", according to BHP.

Anyone who still thinks America and Islam are mutually exclusive concepts should consider the phenomenon of Dearborn, Michigan. Containing the highest concentration of Arabs outside of the Middle East, the town is just as family-oriented, Hummer-happy, and football-mad as Anytown, USA. Attractive for Arab immigrants since the auto-industry explosion of the early 20th century, Dearborn became a fractious focal point in the anti-Muslim aftermath of 9/11, and tensions can still run high. Rashid Ghazi's sleek documentary depicts a week in the life of the community via its working-class public school football team, the Fordson Tractors. After an eighth-anniversary commemoration of the terrorist attacks, the film's predominantly Muslim squad prepares for a showdown with crosstown rival Dearborn High during the final week of Ramadan, meaning the players are fasting even as they endure grueling workouts. Although the subject is inherently compelling, Ghazi is much too ginger with it, swaddling extraordinary complexities in an ordinary underdog tale (and a misleading one, since supposedly scrappy Fordson actually had an undefeated season while its vilified rival—fielding many Arab-American players of its own—went just 5-4). Thankfully, the kids' complicated impulses resist such packaging, whether they're catcalling head-scarved co-eds outside the local gas station or channeling racial resentments into extra hard hits.

What's increasingly clear is that there are hierarchies even among the despised. No sooner had area newscasts shown footage of a bunch of Broad Channel goons dressed up for a local parade in afro wigs and blackface than the mayor himself went on the attack, calling for a complete investigation and the dismissal of cops and firefighters who took part in the stunt. Yet this same mayor, who likes to crow about New York's "bright and stable future," has yet to find time for a strong public statement deploring the proliferation of antigay crime.
"His silence is deafening," says Christine Quinn, the executive director of the New York City Gay and Lesbian Anti-Violence Project. "In the past year, there's been a lot of official antigay rhetoric in the country and it adds up. It confirms people's hatreds. It gives them permission to act out." As City Comptroller Alan G. Hevesi remarked at Thursday's news conference, "even here in New York City, which has to be the most tolerant city in the world, there is an acceptability to expressing bigotry against gays and lesbians."
For all Hevesi's good intentions, the comptroller was operating from a generalized naïveté. Most people recognize that New York offers no particular refuge from the nationwide cancer of bias. As the gender theorist Eve Sedgwick points out, in the U.S. "the scope of institutions whose programmatic undertaking is to prevent the development of gay people is unimaginably large," including "most sites of the state, the military, education, law, penal institutions, the church, medicine, mass culture, and the mental health industries."
Public space is obviously no safer, as local reports from a period of three days make clear. On September 12, a man exercising in a Bronx park was menaced by six assailants with bottles and bats who told him, "We don't want your kind here." (Of course, it's hard to know what "kind" anyone is without asking.) The same Saturday, two strollers were approached on Eighth Avenue and 16th Street by a man yelling, "Kill all of you fucking faggots." On Monday, September 14, a lesbian leaving a Park Slope café was confronted by two men who yelled, "You fucking dyke," then chased and slashed her with a knife. The following afternoon, a disabled, gay Bronx man cashing his SSI check was robbed of $800 by three men who brandished a gun, saying, "Give me your money, maricón."
While these incidents were at least reported to the cops and officially classified as bias related, many never are. "Our clients are afraid to walk the streets now, or wear a leather jacket or pants," for fear of being identified as gay, the AVP's bias-related-crime coordinator Maureen Moran explains. The owner of one Chelsea gay bar recently confirmed on TV that customers were "making a decision to try and appear more straight" in order to avoid harassment.
There is an added problem. "When people get attacked," says Moran, "they're afraid to go to the police. Too often the police say, 'Well, they only called you a faggot,' or 'They only called you a lesbian.' I tell them everyone has a right to make a police report."
But what good is a police report without a police response? It took three murders and repeated reports of antigay bias crimes before Police Commissioner Howard Safir saw fit to increase the number of officers in Greenwich Village's Sixth Precinct. "Certainly we do not have an epidemic" of bias crime, Safir claimed.
Most of the officers assigned to the precinct were given undercover assignments. They wear plainclothes. "They're going after the transgendered prostitutes," says the AVP's Quinn. "Prostitution clearly is not the biggest problem facing the lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgendered community at this moment."
Fear is. "By the mayor not saying anything, it truly devalues people," transgender activist Sylvia Rivera, one of the original Stonewall drag queens, remarked on Thursday. "I've never been so paranoid before. People are being attacked in broad daylight and it's a horrifying feeling. I take side streets from my job to avoid getting harassed. I never felt this siege before. The Village has been our ghetto for the longest time."
