radiant by NikolasBrummerWatch

I still do remember the first time our souls touched. It was at school and we both had planned to spend a free period to read and write, but as we saw each other, somehow it felt as though we had to talk. I had known you before and so did you know me, in some sort, still this beginning felt like an explosion. I remember how your words would leave me breathless because they'd remind me of myself so much - how someone could use their mind the same way, live the same dreams, share the same sorrows. That day after we departed, I felt inspired. I felt alive, vivid, you had given me the power to create something, to achieve. And after a while, we discovered the word "radiant", and we put our own special meaning to it. We escaped to the world of dreams together, we cried and we laughed, and in our hearts there was always this wish to be more than there is. To look farther than the surfaces. To dive into our minds and explore every little detail. And we did. We still do. We still wander around the world, absorbing everything like a sponge, just to eventually leave it out again, having changed it in our own pretty ways. And we understand because it's just you and me and we always had a thing for illusions. You are radiant.

Really relatable and just simply amazing! I am drawn to pretty much every aspect of this piece >_< You're such an original Nikko and I adore like every single picture I've seen recently! Good job!
she looks like she'd have a personality like mine, according to those items :3
Intriguing, I like it.
i love this; what an eye-catching picture, and a phenomenal description to go with it.

I have felt this...a few times,but it was only me,as it turned out.I guess I just want to find someone I'm meant to spend time with(whether it's love in terms of friendship or something more).Maybe it's just me.
I can see that after you read the Alchemist,your view on things seems to have become more...insightfull.You understand things in a different than the usual way,you get more into them.I guess I need to re-read that Life Manual once again.
Your pictures have only a few things and a model usually,and yet they capture so many things.I will never get how you are being able to convert everyday things into something-that's-so-awesome-I-must-have-it,and everyday faces to models coming out of fairytales.
Also,on a side note,I'm glad to see you're feeling better,through your comments and your art.It's more "fairytale-ish" and happy once again

Iceland breaks 21-year-old commercial whaling ban
An Icelandic whalers' spokesman has announced the killing of a fin whale, effectively ending a 21 year ban on commercial whaling by the International Whaling Commission. The fin whale, listed as endangered by the World Conservation Union, was killed on October 21st and will be landed in Iceland soon.
The Iceland Fisheries Ministry also announced new plans to take 9 fin whales and 30 minke whales annually, adding that these numbers were sustainable with present whale population. Japan intends to start hunting humpbacks next year. The International Fund for Animal Welfare's (IFAW) Gallup poll showed the vast majority of Icelanders don't eat whale meat. There is also a glut of whale meat in the market from previous "scientific research" hunts.

Andrea and Antonella Ferrari photograph pair of mating mimic octopus
FiNS Associate Editors and marine life book authors Andrea and Antonella Ferrari had another of their ridiculous lucky strikes a few days ago while muck diving in Puri Jati – a black sand expanse at low and medium depth along Bali's north-eastern coast.
Moments after entering the water, the pair came across two mating mimic octopus (Thaumoctopus mimicus) that didn't seem to mind being photographed.

Review of UK-Germany housing for Pentax *istDS
Mark Stiebel has written a review of his impressions of the UK-Germany housing for the Pentax *istDS digital SLR. Mark commends the company for the solidly built housing, their support of the Pentax brand, and the speed with which his questions were answered, "even when emailing via Google translator."
Mark writes "after taking this housing for only a few dives so far, I am extremely happy with my results. It feels so much better to hold and use than my previous underwater camera (Sony DSC-P10 P&S), and I actually enjoy taking pictures instead of being frustrated by my equipment."
The review includes photos of the housing and camera in various stages of assembly, as well as some of his first photos with the new system. Read on for all the details…

Digital Film Tools EZ Mask 1.0
Digital Film Tools offers a variety of downloads and plug-ins that might be useful for underwater photographers. One of their more recent titles is EZ Mask 1.0, an image masking tool capable of extracting almost any object in an image - even the fine details of fish fins, for example.
According to the press release, the extraction process creates what is known as a mask; once a mask is extracted, the foreground object can be seamlessly composed onto a new background in Adobe Photoshop or Photoshop Elements. Users are then able to apply filter and image corrections only within the area defined by the mask. EZ Mask 1.0 is a downloadable application that costs $150.
In light of the recent art vs. reality discussion on Wetpixel, I wonder how popular this application will be for many underwater photographers. Moreover, a similar tool (i.e., the Magic Extractor) was already introduced in Photoshop Elements 4.0, which costs roughly half the price.
Sony Malaysia introduces the new DSC-N2
Sony has introduced a new Cyber-shot camera to the Malaysian market. While the DSC-N2 may not be the ultimate choice for professional underwater photographers, the camera features a 10-megapixel CCD, 3x optical zoom lens, enough battery life for 300 shots per charge, and a 3-inch LCD with a touch-screen interface that incorporates a nifty paint function that allows users to personalize their photos.
Happily, the N2 fits inside Sony's MPK-NA housing, depth-rated to 120 feet. The camera retails in Malaysia for about $450, and the housing runs an additional $230.
Olympus Evolt E-330 dSLR and 10Bar Housing Review
Wetpixel member Jeff Mullins (reefwalker), of Tulamben's Reef Wreck and Critter Dive Tours, has written a review of the Olympus Evolt E-330 digital SLR and the accompanying 10Bar housing:
When Olympus released their latest Evolt E-330 7.5 megapixel Live-View digital SLR earlier this year. I knew that this camera was for me. I converted to digital back in 2003, after a lot of years taking underwater photographs utilising film SLR's…
10Bar produced my port and housing and had it delivered to me in Bali in only a couple of weeks. I was eager to get the camera wet (not) by the time it arrived. Manufactured from clear polycarbonate, the overall appearance of the housing was sturdy and well engineered… I really like the system and its simplicity.

Lamb fires 76, ties for 48th-best score of day
Defending champion Wuesthoff shares lead with Arseneault and Granada
Published: Tuesday, July 20, 2004 at 4:30 a.m.
Last Modified: Tuesday, July 20, 2004 at 12:00 a.m.
FORT WORTH, Texas -- Flat Rock's Blair Lamb ended up with six bogeys and a birdie to finish the first round of the 56th U.S. Girls Junior Championship with a 5-over-par 76 Monday at Mira Vista Golf Club in Fort Worth.
That has her tied for 48th place in a field of 155 of the best junior girls golfers in the nation. Lamb will tee off at 3:05 p.m. this afternoon from the 10th hole in the final day of stroke-play competition.
The top 64 scores after today will advance to the match play portion of the tournament, which starts Wednesday.
"This course was very difficult, especially the final two holes. The fairways were very narrow," Lamb said in a telephone interview. "I obviously didn't play as well as I had hoped, but that's OK. I'll get them back tomorrow. I believe I can get down to the low 70s."
The heat and humidity combined made the temperature more than 100 degrees on the course, and Lamb said those were conditions she had never played in before.
"I played in tournaments in Florida where it got pretty hot, and I've played in Arizona where it's over 100 there a lot. But the difference in Arizona is that there is no humidity. Here there's the heat and humidity, so you are drenched when you walk off the course," she said.
Lamb is still recovering from an iron deficiency that leaves her fatigued at the end of 18 holes of competition. She said she felt fine Monday but that the heat and humidity did have her wearing down near the end.
"Everyone on the course was that way on the final holes. It was miserable," she said.
After playing the course once, Lamb feels confident heading into today's second round.
"It's a pretty demanding course, one of the toughest I've ever played on. But now I know all the holes and know what I need to do to improve. I think I'll definitely have a better round than what I shot today," Lamb said.
Defending champion Sukjin-Lee Wuesthoff, 17, of Toms River, N.J., and two others -- Jennie Arseneault, 16, of Grinnell, Iowa, and 17-year-old Julieta Granada of Paraguay -- set the bar early Monday by carding 4-under-par 67s on the 6,256-yard, par-71 Mira Vista course.
Last year Lamb advanced to the second round of match play, where she fell to teenage phenom Michelle Wie 5-and-4.
On Monday Lamb parred the first five holes and then had her first bogey of the day on the 565-yard, par-5 sixth hole.
She bounced back quickly with a birdie on the par-3 seventh hole but then surrendered another bogey two holes later on the 381-yard ninth hole.
She stood at 1-over until the 13th, where she had her third bogey of the day on the 408-yard, par-4 hole.
A par-3 followed two holes later on the 15th, but Lamb bogeyed for the fourth time of the day, leaving her at 3-over heading to the final three holes.
After making par on the 16th, she recorded back-to-back bogeys on 17 and 18 and ended the day at 5-over.

Storage - Household & Commercial in Mahwah

Helpful Definition for: Storage - Household & Commercial
'Storage', in Mahwah, is the stocking of goods, household or commercial. Self storage is an industry in which storage space like rooms, lockers, containers, and/or outdoor space, is rented to tenants in which they can store and access their goods. Self storage facilities lease space to individuals usually for storing household goods and the rented spaces are secured by the tenant's own lock and key.
A warehouse, on the other hand, is a commercial building for storage of goods. Warehouses are used by manufacturers, importers, exporters, wholesalers, transport businesses, customs, etc. They are usually large plain buildings in industrial areas of cities and towns. They have loading docks to load and unload goods from trucks. Sometimes warehouses load and unload goods directly from railways, airports, or seaports.

Our Becky's House domestic violence program offers a safe haven for women, men, and children to overcome trauma, improve their economic status, and ultimately achieve self-sufficiency. The program encompasses a 24-hour domestic violence hotline, an emergency shelter, and four transitional housing communities along with supportive services.
Becky's House is the largest provider of emergency and transitional housing in San Diego County, and serve as one of the only resources for male victims. Additionally, our emergency shelter is the only facility in the region that accepts clients at all hours of the day and night.
24-Hour Domestic
Violence Hotline: 619.234.3164
Staffed by trained professional advocates who are certified by the California Office of Emergency Services, the hotline provides crisis resources, referrals, and information 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
The Vi McKinney Becky's House Shelter
Our 30-60 day emergency shelter offers a safe, confidential, temporary home for women, men and children in need of immediate protection. Clients focus on safety planning, legal services, counseling, and housing as they begin to recover from trauma.
Becky's House Transitional Housing
Our 12-month program offers safe, confidential housing and supportive services for women, men and children. Clients focus on career development, financial planning, counseling, and obtaining permanent housing.
Becky's House Transitions is a one-year transitional housing program for survivors of domestic violence. YWCA partners with landlords to place a qualified client as a tenant, lease the apartment for one year, and work closely with the family to live independently. The program includes life skills training, unit inspections, and periodic communications with the landlord to ensure a successful tenancy. Ultimately, families "transition in place" by assuming the lease upon completion of our program.
Case Management
Case management is a critical component of each survivor's process within our program. Our case managers assess the needs of each client and their family to design an individualized plan to achieve their goals.
Individual and group therapy sessions cover topics such as the cycle of domestic violence, self-esteem and assertiveness training, boundary setting, conflict resolution, and techniques to manage anger and stress.
Legal Assistance
YWCA provides free legal services on family law matters, including restraining orders, divorce, child custody, immigration, employment and housing issues, to our residential clients and survivors of domestic violence throughout San Diego County.
Employment Development
Building economic security is a core component of the Becky's House program. Staffed by professional career counselors, our Career Center offers assistance with resume writing and job search, as well as intership placement to gain valuable experience and hands-on skills.
Financial Literacy
Abusers often use financial resources as a method of control, including limiting access to money, prohibiting employment, destroying credit, and other tactics. Our program helps survivors of domestic violence gain critical financial knowledge, skills, and resources.
Youth and Children's Services
Children who witness domestic violence act similarly to children who have been physically abused, exhibiting symptoms such as depression, anger, low self esteem, confusion, withdrawal from personal contact with others, and guilt and shame. Our services provide a variety of therapeutic, social, and educational activities to address their specific needs, including reading groups and tutoring sessions, as well as visits to libraries, museums, parks, and community events. Proven to be an effective method healing, visual and creative arts opportunities are designed to encourage self-expression through music, art, creative writing, and performance projects.
YWCA of San Diego County does not discriminate on the basis of race, color, religious creed, sex (including pregnancy, childbirth, or related medical condition), national origin, ancestry, age, physical disability, mental disability, medical condition, HIV/AIDS status, family care status, veteran status, marital status, sexual orientation, gender identity, or any other basis protected by state or federal laws. When necessary, YWCA also makes reasonable accommodations for clients with disabilities.

Ratings for Dr. Brian E. McDonald
Recently dr sent me to the hospital and said he would be there shortly. I sat in the ER for two hours and then was seen in the ER by another ER doc. The reason for that is because dr McDonald never showed up. The ER knew I was coming but he never left instructions of what to do with me. They paged him numerous times but nothing. An associate of dr McDonald was then on call but knew nothing of me and never saw me. I finally left in the middle of the night and called the following day to see what happened. The office said I was a no show the day before. I told them I was there, saw him and other staff and he sent me to the hospital. The next day I rec"d a certified letter saying I was removed from the practice. I have always liked the doc very much and am shocked by all of this. All he needed to do wAs apologize for forgetting me and that would have been ok. But lying to cover himself is not right. I m very sad and disappointed about all of this. He was always good to me.
Very kind, never rushes. Explains and talks to patients as human beings. A great guy.
Dr. is excellent, but staff is so bad. If you complain Medical associates do not ever do anything about the girls whp answer phones. Terrible, the worst.
I trust my life to this man. He listens, advises, guides, suggests, prescribes and lets me take an active part of my care. He has been firm when needed and speaks to me in words I know. Dr McD wants to know that I understand my condition. He can think outside the box and has no fear of consulting his library for more info. He is our Family doc & he knows we are individuals and treats us as such. His desire to help is very apparent in his care. His Emergency Room experience helps him switch gears quickly. The reception staff is great & generally sweet, the nursing staff is somewhat rushed/racing around. My complaints: #1) I find the telephone system does not work well for me - my messages are taken & many times I get no response - ever. I try to make an appointment for important health issues. #2) When he is off, it is very hard to get care. I feel like I must wait for another doctor to finish with his/her own patients before my message gets attetion no matter the urgency.
Easy to talk to. Can discuss anything. Never feel rushed...
Very conscientious and concerned about his patient. Willing to spend time explaining and answering questions.
Very understanding physician. Listens...can ask him anything..very knowledgeabale..can discuss anything with him. Doesn't rush you...
He has been my primary care physician for many years and I think he is one of the best Doctors in the Poconos. His office can get busy sometimes. To get a better docotr you probably have to go to a major city.

M4 Sherman Tank The pilot model of the M4 was completed in September 1941, and the Sherman became the most widely produced tank of the war. The M4 Sherman defeated heavier tanks with superior numbers, and by using outflanking tactics to strike thinner enemy flank armor. Shermans also achieved success with progressively upgunned models and by working with tank destroyers. The Sherman tank--named by the British--was fast, maneuverable, mechanically reliable, easy to manufacture, and effective in its infantry support role. It served with the US Army and Marines during World War II, and the US transferred large numbers to the United Kingdom and allied forces of many countries.

We stayed in the Vespa Room. It has tasteful modern decoration, a comfortable double bed, balcony and private bathroom. The location is ideal, with short walking distances to the Coliseum, the underground and city tour bus stop. Breakfast is served at a stylish cafe lounge just around the corner. There was a huge selection of pastries and the coffee is to die for. The customer service at Mok'house is to be commended, especially when compared to the typical standard you get in big cities. They were a great help in advising on restaurants that are not rip-off tourist traps but places they eat with their families. We plan to visit Tuscany and will book with Mok'house there too.

Market Roundup - May 2011A new meme for May
By Brian Jacobsen, Ph.D., CFA, CFP®, Chief Portfolio Strategist
John Lynch, Chief Equity Strategist
James Kochan, Chief Fixed-Income Strategist
Two memes—terms that spread from person to person within a culture—are being used these days to describe the markets. Sometimes the meme is "Teflon market." At other times it's "climbing a wall of worry." These phrases can be cute, and sometimes even useful, but they don't perfectly characterize what's going on in the financial markets, so they can create dissonance when they break down. "Teflon market," for example, means that no matter what bad news you throw at it, market prices keep going up. "Climbing a wall of worry" means that people are skeptical about the likelihood of a continued economic recovery. Newscasters will pick up on whichever of these two memes is appropriate for the day. If the market is up, it's a Teflon market. If the market is down, it's because we're still climbing a wall of worry.
Maybe we need a new meme: The market is as the market does. There is good news and bad news, and the market will react accordingly. This was demonstrated in April, as the market moved up on the good news despite plenty of worries: high commodity prices, geopolitical unrest, geological disasters, and other bumps in the night. In this Market Roundup, we attempt to identify some of today's risks and opportunities in the economy, equities, and bonds.
> The Economy
But this export-led growth, which has helped China and other emerging markets economies create jobs and output by selling to the developed world, can create economic imbalances. When a country sells to the U.S., it gets U.S. dollars in exchange. Typically it will buy U.S. Treasury securities, which has helped to keep U.S. interest rates low. Over time, a country can accumulate only so many U.S. debt securities before other options start to look appealing, like buying U.S. goods and services or buying other U.S. assets (like equities or real estate).
To this end, China and other emerging markets governments both within and outside of Asia have begun to talk about diversifying their foreign-exchange reserves. They are tired of getting a meager interest rate on their U.S. government debt securities and are looking for a higher return on their investments. This could represent a tidal shift, as emerging markets governments accumulating U.S. government debt start to buy other U.S. assets, goods, and services.
Instead of fearing the idea of China outgrowing the U.S., we should embrace the opportunity to rebalance the global imbalances caused by the years of emerging markets export-led growth. U.S. equities should do well in the long run, while investors may want to trim their exposure to U.S. government debt. There are opportunities in the high-yield and municipal debt area that are relatively more attractive than sitting on U.S. Treasury securities.
High prices at the grocery store and the gas pump do not signal inflationAs of the writing of this Market Roundup, the national average price of gasoline was $3.94 per gallon. In 12 states, gasoline cost more than $4 per gallon. In Hawaii, it was more than $6 per gallon. Isn't that inflation? Sadly, no. It is merely expensive gasoline.
High prices at the grocery store or the gas pump do not signal inflation. What constitutes inflation is an environment in which all prices continue to go up. One of these prices—perhaps the most important—is wages. A lot of people think of a wage as income, which it is, but it is also the price companies pay to hire someone to work. By this measure, prices, including wages, are not going up in tandem with gasoline. What we're seeing instead is an erosion of consumer purchasing power and wealth. Painful? Yes. Inflation? No.
This distinction probably gives investors little comfort, but it is important. When wages don't go up with consumer prices, the consumer price increase is unlikely to result in a persistent increase in the growth rate of prices. Instead, price levels may jump intermittently. Think of it this way: If gasoline prices go up from $3 to $4 per gallon, that's a price jump. If gasoline goes up in price 10% per year, from $3 to $3.30 to $3.63, that's inflation. The Federal Reserve is looking at controlling inflation (the continual increase in prices), not at preventing one-time jumps in prices. At the same time, consumers are concerned about price increases. This disparity means that the Fed can keep rates low longer than consumers might like. Loose monetary policy can push prices higher, causing pain for consumers, but don't forget that equities, fixed income, and commodities also have prices that can go higher, creating opportunity for investors.
The April gains were broad based among all the indexes we follow. See Chart 1. For example, capitalization favored larger companies, as the DJIA outperformed the Russell 2000 Index in April, leading to year-to-date outperformance for the bigger names. Regarding investment style, growth stocks outperformed value last month, narrowing their year-to-date underperformance differential. Looking overseas, developed markets handily beat the emerging space last month, building further on their year-to-date outperformance.
From a sector perspective, health care was the leader within the S&P 500 Index, buoyed by a combination of better-than-expected profit growth and increased merger activity. The consumer staples sector was next, puzzling us because this is an area that is susceptible to margin erosion as input costs rise with the increase in commodities. Companies are unlikely to pass these costs on to customers in an environment where lofty unemployment levels persist. Some leading financial names disappointed investors during earnings season, which led to the sector's poor showing in April. In another apparent oddity, the energy space failed to keep up with the surging price for oil. Is this perhaps another example of "buy the rumor, sell the news?"
Whither the dollar?The U.S. dollar continued to weaken in April as monetary policymakers reiterated their plans to fulfill the $600 billion Treasury bond buying program. To be sure, the greenback has been on a steady decline since QE2, as suggested in a speech by Fed Chairman Ben Bernanke last August. These concerns have been exacerbated by the longer-term implications of federal deficit spending measures. See Chart 2.
To be fair, Fed and Treasury officials are in a difficult spot. If they pursue higher interest rates to support the currency, they risk the already shaky recovery in employment, which could further pressure home prices and potentially send the economy back into recession. In addition, higher interest expense is not an attractive alternative as lawmakers in Washington currently battle over the federal debt limit. Consequently, it appears that officials are willing to take their lumps on the dollar, possibly hoping that the end of QE2 will result in a bid for both the currency and market interest rates. Further, a potentially more devious strategy is that officials may simply be waiting for the next sovereign debt problem to escalate in Europe, which could also result in a bid for the dollar as global investors seek the traditional safe-haven status of the world's largest reserve currency during times of crisis. In the meantime, a weak dollar, at least theoretically, should serve to promote export growth and to help drive profits for those companies with significant international operations.
As mentioned in the economy section earlier, we are not convinced that the weak dollar necessitates a long-term inflationary problem. While food and energy prices have jumped recently, we are willing to stand with Fed officials in their statements that these developments are likely "transitory." Indeed, food and energy comprise approximately one-seventh of domestic inflation measures, whereas they can add up to more than one-half that in many emerging markets nations. Not to underestimate the pain many domestic households are experiencing with, for example, higher gasoline costs, but for a longer-term inflationary problem in the U.S. to develop, and persist, housing and wages must participate. Unfortunately, that scenario seems unlikely to occur anytime soon.
Meanwhile, gold and silver continued to hit new highs as the dollar has struggled. Of the two, we believe gold should enjoy more bids over the longer term as foreign central banks hesitate to buy dollars due to deficit spending concerns, while also possibly limiting their purchases of euros—which some may consider expensive at current levels, particularly given the sovereign debt issues on the continent. In our opinion, the recent action in silver appears "day-trader excessive."
For those companies with significant international operations, the weaker dollar enhances the affordability of their products and services, while also serving to increase profits once foreign-sourced revenues are re-priced into domestic currency earnings. Generally speaking, the larger-cap sectors that would fit into these categories include energy, materials, industrials, and information technology. However, a hurdle exists for many companies as the weaker greenback increases commodity and input costs, resulting in margin pressures. Many businesses, particularly in the consumer discretionary and consumer staples sectors, have difficulty passing these rising costs along during periods of high unemployment. This establishes yet another case for a fully diversified and actively managed long-term equity portfolio.
The very steep yield curves were the major factor influencing returns in April and year to date. In April the one- to three-year maturities returned 0.3%, while the seven-year and longer maturities returned 2.2%. Year to date, the longer maturities have returned 3%, while the one- to three-year segment has returned 0.9%. Returns across the credit spectrum were more uniform. In April, the AAA/AA credits returned 1.7%, while the A/BBB credits returned 1.8%. Because the corporate market also performed well in April, the municipal-to-corporate yield ratios remain at or near record levels. Instead of the normal ratios of 0.7 to 0.8, the 10-year A-rated municipal-to-corporate yield ratio is now 1.0. These exceptionally high ratios mark the municipal market as substantially undervalued versus Treasuries and corporates.
Both the investment-grade and high-yield corporate markets continue to outperform Treasuries. By virtue of their higher yields, the bank and finance sectors are performing better than the industrial and utility sectors. Year to date, bank and finance returns are a percentage point better than industrial and utility returns. Among all investment-grade issues, the intermediate and longer maturities have produced year-to-date returns in the 2.5% to 3% range, much better than the 1.4% return from the one- to three-year segment. The high-yield corporate market continues to perform exceptionally well, with the weakest credits still outperforming the stronger credits. The CCC sector now has a year-to-date return of 7.2% versus a return of approximately 5% for the BB/B sectors. Steep yield curves are also a major factor influencing returns in the high-yield market. The one- to three-year maturities have a year-to-date return of 3.7%, while the longest sectors have returns of more than 8.5%.
The Treasury yield curve is virtually unchanged thus far in 2011, thanks to a fairly strong rally during April. Yields fell almost 30 bps in the three- to five-year segment of the curve last month and 10 to 15 bps in the 10- to 30-year segment. That rally brought the yield on the 10-year note down to 3.30% at month-end, which is at the low end of the range for 2011. Except for a very brief drop to 3.20% in mid-March, the range for this yield has been 3.30% to 3.75%. With the Fed planning to reduce its purchases of notes and bonds by $60 billion per month starting in July, yields below that range might prove to be unsustainable in the months ahead.
The April and year-to-date total returns remain consistent with what we have called the income phase of the fixed-income investment cycle—the phase in which interest income contributes to the bulk of total return. Only the high-yield market has seen a significant amount of capital gains thus far in 2011. Because yield curves in every market are unusually steep, returns are substantially greater on the longer maturities. Even in the municipal market, which has been struggling somewhat this year, returns in the intermediate and longer maturities are substantially stronger than they are in the short maturities. In fact, we expect the short-term sectors to continue to underperform in the months ahead. Fed Chairman Bernanke and the Federal Open Market Committee continue to insist that the fed funds rate should stay unusually low for an "extended period." That probably means for the rest of 2011, or perhaps longer. In that event, cash and cash equivalents would be expected to produce the poorest returns of any investment sector.

Stanley Cup: Boston's heat wave makes for lousy ice
The heat wave hitting the East Coast is making the ice in the TD Garden a little sloppy
|Report an Error
Share via Email
BOSTON - The hot, humid weather in Boston is raising concerns about the ice conditions at TD Garden before Game 6 of the Stanley Cup final.
With temperatures forecasted to reach 33 degrees, Bruins and Chicago Blackhawks players expressed some concern about what it would be like when the puck is dropped Monday night.
"It's pretty hot outside, and I'm kind of sweating right now," Blackhawks forward Michael Frolik said. "The ice wasn't great, but I guess it's same for both teams. Hopefully it get a little bit better tonight."
June 24 ties for the latest Cup final game in NHL history, and a potential Game 7 would set a new record.
"Everybody has been through it, and two teams are going through the same conditions," Bruins coach Claude Julien said. "Both teams are going to tell you the same truth: keep the game simple and try and avoid those mistakes from over-handling pucks in those kind of ice conditions."
Boston players had slightly better reviews of the ice after their morning skate, which happened before Chicago's. Centre Chris Kelly said if it's as good at night — when the temperature is expected to be 28 degrees — as it was in the morning, it would not negatively affect play.
"It was OK this morning," defenceman Torrey Krug said. "I thought it was obviously better early on and the more it gets chewed up it kind of deteriorates. For us we're not worried about it. Both teams have to play on the ice. It's something you can't focus on. You've just got to make sure you take care of the puck."
Bruins centre David Krejci called the ice "kind of bumpy." It could get worse as the day goes on.
"It's obviously going to be choppy, but it's going to be choppy for both teams," Blackhawks forward Andrew Shaw said. "I think we've just got to (be smart with) pucks, try not to make those pretty plays in the middle of the ice."
The NHL is in charge of maintaining ice conditions during the Cup final, a Bruins spokesman said. A league spokeswoman said ice specialist Dan Craig was not doing interviews during the series.
Julien expects the heat in to rise as fans enter TD Garden on Monday night. Those who have attended morning skates at the arena all season observed that the building wasn't as cold as it usually is.
Given how much the Blackhawks have excelled with their speed, a choppier surface might be advantageous to the Bruins. But Frolik and his teammates aren't exactly going into foreign territory.
"I think we're kind of used to bad ice. Chicago is not great ice, too," he said. "Hopefully we get used to it very quick."

I like this a lot...nicely done Mark
Too darn cute
Aww, so cute! That's cool that you used an old photo as the background...it looks amazing
Thank you. I don't do much in color but this one I liked!
It's very lovely. I recognize Thumper, but who is the other character? Another Bambi character?

Beanie Siegel Gets TWO YEARS Behind Bars For TAX EVASION + Publisher Farrah Gray SUES Antonia "Toya" Wright
$1MBeanie Siegel faces two years behind bars for tax evasion. Get the deets inside and find out why Toya Wright's publisher is suing her....
Beanie Siegel failed to pay his taxes for the years 2003 through 2005 and now faces 2-years serious jail time. U.S. District Judge Jan DuBois also imposed a year of supervised release after the sentence during which Beanie will payb ack taxes, interest and penalties he owes.
The IRS found that Beanie did not file tax returns from 1999 through 2002, except for a $10,000 tax payment in 2001 while he earned more than $2.2 million in taxable income for those years. So he owes $728,536 for those six years. He was not charged with tax offenses for the years 1999 through 2002 because the statute of limitations had expired. He has until Sept. 12 to surrender to the Bureau of Prisons.
But on a happier note, Beanie is back doing music. Chris Schwartz, CEO of hip-hop label Ruffhouse Records, has announced that Beanie will drop his first album for the label This Time will be released August 28. Chris said,
"We're extremely proud to be re-launching Ruffhouse Records with Beanie Sigel as our first artist. His sentencing today doesn't change any of that in the least. Regardless of this unfortunate situation, Beanie has created a tremendous body of work that is totally worthy of the Ruffhouse name. It's almost ironic that the sentencing is happening on the eve of this record, because this record is about introspection and redemption. Beanie is truly one of the great lyricists in the hip-hop game. He stands tall among all the major MCs and he's revered by all hip-hop aficionados around the world."
Farrah Gray, who runs Farrah Gray Publishing is suing reality star Antonia "Toya" Wright for failing to promote her book Priceless Inspirations, which he published. He plans to file in the U.S. Federal Court in the Northern District of Georgia with claims that Toya has engaged in "...direct, contributory and vicarious inducement of copyright infringement, unfair competition and breach of contract."
Farrah wants $1M bucks plus court costs and attorney fees. He claims Toya sold her own copies behind his back and failed to promote and market the book.
Toya disputes these claims as her rep released a statement saying, "Mrs. Wright consistently went above and beyond her contractual obligations which included: Self- funding a college tour promoting Priceless Inspirations, Cross promotion of her Ampro endorsement by placing the book cover on Ampro products nationwide and allowing Farrah Gray Publishing the platform to promote her book on her highly successful reality show on Black Entertainment Television."

Last night (July 11), Rick Ross' Maybach Music Group's roster grew by one. Rozay signed Chicago rapper Rockie Fresh in New York City, before celebrating the partnership in Queens at Club Perfections.
"I got that locked in," Fresh told XXL shortly after arriving back home in the Windy City today (July 12). "It was a long time coming, but we got it right. I let him know it was something I wanted to do earlier this week. We really cracked down. His lawyer put in work, so did mine until we got to common ground and I signed last night."
Rockie says other labels did court him, but he always knew MMG was where he would want to wind up.
"It was a crazy feeling man....I honestly did have good amount of offers on the table," Rockie explained. "Even though my situation is kinda under the radar, a lot of people took interest in the music from an industry point of view.I had some good looks, but nothing felt as real as the MMG situation.
"Knowing how Ross is, being able to be around him, he's probably one of the best dudes to be working for," the Chi-town native added. "He makes it more so feel like you are working with him. It's one of those situations that felt real good to me. I feel we gonna make a lot of bread together down the line."
Fresh joins the lineup of Wale, Stalley, Meek Mill and Omarion as Ross' recruits through MMG/ Warner Brothers. With Chicago currently booming with young talent--such as Interscope-signee Chief Keef, and Def Jam's Lil Reese and Lil Durk--Fresh says he's eager to bring some of that Windy City flavor to the Bawse's untouchable empire.
"I'm the only Chicago artist on MMG--we got our own style of music, our own vibe, our own problems and situations," Fresh said. "And just me talking about that and staying true to the sound of my city. And also on the pop level, I have a lot pop records that lean towards that direction. I feel that it gives me a different sound from everybody else on the label that adds to the team.
"That's gonna be an amazing thing for my growth as a artist in general," he added about making songs with MMG's group of rhyme slingers. "Guys like Wale and Meek are looked at as some of the top young dudes in the game right now. For me to do songs with them, I have to challenge myself to go in on verses, so it's only gonna make me a better young artist. It's going to be tremendous for my growth."
Rockie is putting together his new mixtape for the fall, entitled, Electric Highway. This summer he'll be touring as a nopener on Meek Mill's Dreamchaser 2 outing. After that, Rockie is slated to head his own headlining tour.—
After Frank Ocean opted to release his album, Channel Orange, one week early via iTunes, rumors surfaced that Target refused to sell the LP in stores.
The retailer reportedly cited the singer's decision to release his album early through iTunes as the reason for the blacklisting, however, his recent coming out was suspected as being the real reason.
While the store is rumored to be affiliated with anti-LGBTQ organizations, they are denying any claims that they are being discriminatory.
In a statement made to Billboard Biz, Target addressed the claims as false. "The claims made about Target's decision to not carry the Frank Ocean album are absolutely false," they wrote. "Target supports inclusivity and diversity in every aspect of our business. Our assortment decisions are based on a number of factors, including guest demand.
Target has a longstanding tradition of supporting music and artistry that reflects the diverse landscape of American culture. Our history of partnering with diverse artists includes recent partnerships with a variety of musicians, such as Ricky Martin, B.o.B., and Gloria Estefan."
Frank's manager later apologized for contributing to the rumors. "I apologize for my comments about Target," he tweeted. "They are not carrying Frank's album because it went digital first. Not for ANY other reason. … My response was simply an emotional knee jerk reaction. … Stop. Breath."

About Me
Getting Front Office job experience at Marriott Hotels and enjoy life :)
I feel like a multinational person as I'm half Finnish and half Polish, I've lived in Spain for almost 5 years and apart from that I'm travelling frequently ^^ So I'd say restless and spontaneous are two words that describe me quite well.. I'm also an open-minded, adventurous and caring person.
I finished my BA degree in Tourism at the end of 2014 after which I had sort of a gap year (again :p). I volunteered with my boyfriend at a family-run riding centre in central Portugal after which we went for a 2-month backpacking trip around South America - one of the best experiences in my life :) Now I've just moved to Bournemouth for work.
I'm interested in quite many things but I'm especially passionate about horses, music (playing the piano and guitar) and dancing (salsa and bachata above all). I've also started to practise yoga and I love it! Besides I love to travel and meet people from different cultures :)
Live every day as if it was your last (unfortunately this usually turns out to be more difficult than expected..)
A hug is worth a thousand words. A friend is worth more.
Live and let live.
"Sing like no one is listening, love like you've never been hurt, dance like nobody's watching and live like it's heaven on earth" - Mark Twain
Why I'm on Couchsurfing
Lately I've been mostly meeting up with people while travelling/living in different cities. I used to have a flat in Malaga with my bf for 1,5 year and during that time I hosted couch surfers almost every week. Before that I used to surf a lot and I hope that I could do that again soon :)
I've been hosted many times in different countries - alone and with a friend and I've hosted many people in Malaga when I was renting out a flat with my bf. I've had many great experiences with cs and I think that it's definitely the best way to experience the local culture and to meet interesting people :)
Horses - Especially natural horsemanship and trail riding.
Playing the piano & the guitar.
Dancing - Salsa & bachata (+kizomba, hiphop etc.)
Yoga - I just started practising Ashtanga Yoga in December and I love it!
Travelling - will never get tired of it ;)
Vegetarianism - I'm not a strict vegetarian though I'm planning to become one.
Books and movies (especially fantasy)
Music, Movies, and Books
Movies: Lord of the Rings, Pirates of the Caribbean, Dirty Dancing 1-2, Step Up, Honey, Hidalgo, A Walk to Remember, The Notebook, The Holiday, Mamma Mia, Vicky Cristina Barcelona, Shrek, Slumdog Millionaire ...
Music: R&B, latin (especially salsa and bachata), hip hop, pop&rock ballads, soul, reggae, house, oriental meditation/relax music .. I like many kinds of music but the only ones I can't stand are metal and techno.
Books: Elizabeth Gilbert's "Eat, Pray, Love" is the book that has inspired me most. I also love to read Paulo Coelho, Torey Hayden, Nicholas Sparks, J.R.R. Tolkien, Patrick Rothfuss, Sophie Kinsella, Cathy Glass, Cecelia Ahern, Stephenie Meyer and yeah still Harry Potters, love them :D My newest discover is "The Secret" by Rhonda Byrnes.
One Amazing Thing I've Done
- Galloping up the hill and riding bareback on a wonderful white horse in Malaga
- Doing a road trip around the West Coast of the US with my cousin and friends - Las Vegas, The Grand Canyon, L.A., Yosemite, San Francisco
- Boat-ride under the Niagara Falls and seeing a rainbow
- Horse-back riding on the beach in Bulgaria with my sister
- Sunrise at the beach in Tarragona and the human towers of Santa Tecla
- Park Guell & Sagrada Familia in Barcelona
Teach, Learn, Share
I could teach you some of the languages I know, horse-back riding, some basics of piano playing and salsa dancing.
I would love to learn more about natural horsemanship and to play the guitar better. I'm also interested in yoga and meditation - I find it really hard though cause I have such a restless mind ;/
What I Can Share with Hosts
I usually cook something for my hosts :)
I can also teach you any of the things mentioned above or help you with pets if you happen to have any.
Countries I've Visited
Bolivia, Bulgaria, Chile, Croatia, Czech Republic, Estonia, France, Greece, Hungary, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Morocco, Peru, Portugal, Slovakia, Sweden, United States
Countries I've Lived In

I'm currently reading "My Beef with Meat" by Rip Esselstyn and what I love about his book is how simple and applicable his advice is. For example, he suggests that when you make a shopping list, make 5 columns: whole grains, legumes, fruits, vegetables, and salt-free spices. If there's something that you want to buy that doesn't fit into one of these categories, then don't buy it! So simple! Also, many of his meal suggestions are so simple.
Eating a plant-based diet is not hard. For instance, this morning I had cereal with soy milk, and for lunch today, I had a classic PB&J on whole wheat bread, made with natural peanut butter and no-sugar-added strawberry preserves. With the sandwich, I had a whole carrot which I had peeled and cut into sticks, along with an organic yellow apple. I'm stuffed! For snack this afternoon, I'll have a banana. Dinner will most likely consist of quinoa and veggies.
I've also been trying to be more aware of what fruits and veggies I'm buying and eating, paying more attention to what is in season, and what should be purchased organically. Rip recommends eating frozen fruits and veggies, as these are picked and frozen at their peak nutrition and therefore, are just as healthy, if not more than, fresh fruits and veggies. And frozen can also be so much cheaper!
It doesn't have to be hard. When I first started eating vegan, I was a bit overwhelmed by the recipes out there, and I often spent a lot of hours cooking things that ended up not tasting all that great. Once I started simplifying things, though, I really started to enjoy eating a plant-based diet. Now I find myself craving big veggie salads, overnight oats, and fruit. It's awesome!

SK Telecom Co. Ltd. Stock Upgraded (SKM)
TheStreet) -- SK Telecom (NYSE: SKM) has been upgraded by TheStreet Ratings from hold to buy. The company's strengths can be seen in multiple areas, such as its notable return on equity, attractive valuation levels, good cash flow from operations, largely solid financial position with reasonable debt levels by most measures and expanding profit margins. We feel these strengths outweigh the fact that the company has had sub par growth in net income. Highlights from the ratings report include:NEW YORK (
-- Written by a member of TheStreet RatingsStaff
- The return on equity has improved slightly when compared to the same quarter one year prior. This can be construed as a modest strength in the organization. Compared to other companies in the Wireless Telecommunication Services industry and the overall market, SK TELECOM CO LTD's return on equity exceeds that of both the industry average and the S&P 500.
- Net operating cash flow has increased to $784.82 million or 39.88% when compared to the same quarter last year. In addition, SK TELECOM CO LTD has also vastly surpassed the industry average cash flow growth rate of -11.44%.
- SK TELECOM CO LTD's earnings per share declined by 33.3% in the most recent quarter compared to the same quarter a year ago. This company has reported somewhat volatile earnings recently. But, we feel it is poised for EPS growth in the coming year. During the past fiscal year, SK TELECOM CO LTD increased its bottom line by earning $1.85 versus $1.62 in the prior year. This year, the market expects an improvement in earnings ($1.90 versus $1.85).
- SKM, with its decline in revenue, underperformed when compared the industry average of 10.8%. Since the same quarter one year prior, revenues fell by 14.7%. Weakness in the company's revenue seems to have hurt the bottom line, decreasing earnings per share.

Urbanspoon & Citysearch Add Restaurant Twitter Feeds"/>
Urbanspoon announced on its blog today that the Seattle-based online restaurant guide has added Twitter feeds to its restaurant listings. For example, if you search for Monsoon East, you'll see the restaurant's latest Tweet ("I will tell you about it tomorrow. We'll catch up!") as well as a link to its Twitter feed. IAC, Urbanspoon's parent company, also owns Citysearch, and Citysearch also announced today that it has Twitterized its listings. Not surprisingly, Voracious learned about the news via Twitter (thanks, @RebekahDenn).
This would be a good time to remind you that Seattle Weekly's online restaurant guide recently partnered with Urbanspoon Rez. Now, not only can you search hundreds of restaurant listings written by our editorial staff, you can make reservations through our site.

Corralling the good in sibling rivalry
Meanwhile, a briefing paper on sibling rivalry from the University of Michigan Health System said most siblings become close even if they've been rivals and that "working things out with siblings gives your children a chance to develop important skills like cooperating and being able to see another person's point of view."
"My kids kill and adore each other," said Darah Zeledon of Plantation, Fla. The children closest in age often want the same toys or prizes. But, she added, they also, "when not killing each other, play nicely because they share interests."
The boys, Natan, 9, and Yair, 7, are the most competitive, usually around sports. Leah, 10, competes with everyone. She's the "scorekeeper," concerned about fairness. Yordana, 12, competes with her around academics. Dalia, 6, will compete with anyone because she doesn't want to be left behind.
"I think parents need to realize there are ways to channel that for good," Zeledon, author of "Girl with the Crooked Smile — Stuck in a Moment," said. "It can help children try to do things better: who has the best manners, the best grades. Worded properly, it can encourage in a positive way."
Rivalry among her children over objects doesn't last, but the quest for the attention of Zeledon and her husband, Joaquin, is constant, she said. They try to impress their parents with grades, manners and other things. She's not easily impressed, she added, so they end up trying harder. "It does encourage them to do better."
David and Lu Simonsen usually prefer their children work things out. "It eliminates tattletaling to some degree," he said. "It helps them learn to negotiate and compromise."
As it did with their kids' eBay sale, rivalry can motivate and prompt healthy competition. "You take that and extrapolate that out to when your children are in the real world," said their dad. "If a child is not motivated and does not know how to resolve conflict, that child is going to have a tough go of it trying to be 'successful.' "
Vanessa Wade of Houston grew up the youngest of seven kids and was often compared to her siblings. "Did I like it? Not that much," said Wade, 33. "Yet I learned how to stand out among them, and it carried over into my professional career. I believe rivalry is part of life. It motivates you to think on your own, be creative and can yield good results. As long as you are comfortable in your skin and don't feel like a failure, it is normal to have healthy competition. Sometimes our siblings are a wake-up call — if they can do it, so can you."
Her middle siblings were known for good grades and leadership. "Teachers would say, 'You know that your sister passed with an A in advanced chemistry,' or 'Your brother did an outstanding project' and give me a look as to say 'You are going to outdo them, right?' " said Wade, who owns Connect the Dots Public Relations. She worked harder.
Turning down the heat
Children under 4 have no hope of working things out themselves, Walfish said. They are still learning language and how to express themselves. They aren't able to compromise or delay gratification. Parents have the job of socializing children and teaching skills.
For older children and even adults who can still experience sibling rivalry, Walfish suggests appreciating healthy competition and working on self-awareness. The more one can look inside, the more capable of happy, satisfying relationships that person will be. "What is helpful is if parents equip kids to deal with disappointments," Walfish said.
The little Simonsen girls argued so much over dolls that their parents made a simple rule: If someone is playing with something, even if it's yours, you're not allowed to ask for it, he said. No one's going to play with anything for that long; eventually everyone moves on to something else.
The Zeledons, too, have rules: No belittling each other. No bullying. If one sibling degrades or is condescending to the other, that child must apologize and do something to make up for it. A brother who makes fun of a littler sibling's lack of skateboarding skills will spend an hour teaching the little one to skateboard, she said.

M/I Homes Inc. Stock Upgraded (MHO)
TheStreet) -- M/I Homes (NYSE: MHO) has been upgraded by TheStreet Ratings from sell to hold. The company's strengths can be seen in multiple areas, such as its revenue growth, solid stock price performance and compelling growth in net income. However, as a counter to these strengths, we also find weaknesses including generally poor debt management, weak operating cash flow and poor profit margins. Highlights from the ratings report include:NEW YORK (
-- Written by a member of TheStreet Ratings Staff
- The revenue growth greatly exceeded the industry average of 30.4%. Since the same quarter one year prior, revenues rose by 18.6%. Growth in the company's revenue appears to have helped boost the earnings per share.
- Powered by its strong earnings growth of 81.52% and other important driving factors, this stock has surged by 26.12% over the past year, outperforming the rise in the S&P 500 Index during the same period. Regarding the stock's future course, our hold rating indicates that we do not recommend additional investment in this stock despite its gains in the past year.
- M/I HOMES INC reported significant earnings per share improvement in the most recent quarter compared to the same quarter a year ago. This company has reported somewhat volatile earnings recently. But, we feel it is poised for EPS growth in the coming year. During the past fiscal year, M/I HOMES INC reported poor results of -$1.82 versus -$1.42 in the prior year. This year, the market expects an improvement in earnings ($0.00 versus -$1.82).
- Net operating cash flow has significantly decreased to -$7.68 million or 392.15% when compared to the same quarter last year. In addition, when comparing to the industry average, the firm's growth rate is much lower.
- The debt-to-equity ratio of 1.06 is relatively high when compared with the industry average, suggesting a need for better debt level management.

Athletes feel confident knowing that medical-technology specialists are behind the creation of CEP's compression socks and compression calf sleeves. They also know that in the latest research tests, CEP's compression socks and compression calf sleeves were shown to provide more oxygen to the muscles. More oxygen helps reduce shin splints, painful cramps and iliotibial band syndrome (ITBS). Compression wear can even alleviate injuries. Because of all of these things, athletes can get a better performance and a faster recovery time.
CEP has continued to experience rapid growth with its line of compression socks and calf sleeves. The brand is committed to providing the best endurance performance line on the market.
