This study explores the relationship of the pain of the migraine headache and the associated features of migraine. Migraineurs (n = 1025) (ICHD-2, 1.1–1.2 and 1.5.1) were evaluated retrospectively using a detailed database (daily unremitting excluded). Variables studied included headache intensity and duration, associated symptoms and pain characteristics. Non-parametric correlations were used to evaluate relationships among variables. Headache intensity correlated with nausea, vomiting, photophobia, phonophobia, dizziness (all P = 0.000), running of the nose/tearing of the eyes (P = 0.007), and osmophobia (P = 0.044), but not with diarrhoea or taste abnormality. Headache duration correlated only with osmophobia (P = 0.002) and taste abnormality (P = 0.005). Throbbing, pressure and stabbing pain correlated with most of the associated symptoms. Aching correlated only with taste abnormality. This correlational study demonstrates that migraine pain is clearly related to nausea, but is also correlated with other associated migraine symptoms. Taste abnormality and osmophobia are better correlated with headache duration rather than headache intensity.

The way Forrest works is: - Render a page, eg index.html - Request links for that page, eg index.html?cocoon-view=links - For each link, recursively render, chase links, etc. So if the menu doesn't point to foo/index.html, and it isn't referenced in the body of any page, then it is assumed un-get-to-able and won't be rendered. Perhaps this is the problem? What are you trying to achieve by stripping off index.html, but still requiring those pages?

Lincoln Leadership Academy Charter School in Allentown doesn't have a drama club, no chorus, not even a stage to perform on.
"This is my first year at Lincoln," explained Drama Teacher Julie Valenzuela. "And they've never done any musicals before."
But with a bare bones budget, and 40 students signing up to be a part of the production, the school pulled off the musical 'In The Heights'. The story is set over three days in the Washington Heights neighborhood in Manhattan.
"This is a whole new world for them and they have this amazing raw talent and this passion in their hearts," Valenzuela described.
On top of doing their first full-scale production, Lincoln also took home two nominations for the 12th annual Freddy Awards. One for Best Featured Dancer for freshman Mya Nales, and another for Luli Colon as Best Actress.
"My character was Daniela," Colon shared. "She was like this ghetto Hispanic who does salon work, she was a salonist, and she just talks a lot and gossips."
Both teens tell 69 News they never expected the nominations, and of course are hoping for wins tonight.
"Regardless if we win or lose, we still made history in our own school and that was a really big thing to be a part of," smiled Nales.

Antony and the Johnsons will release their five track EP Thank You For Your Love on August 24th via Secretly Canadian. The title-track is the lead single from the forthcoming album Swanlights also being released by Secretly Canadian on October 12. The album is now available for pre-order including bundles consisting of the full length CD and EP, vinyl LP and EP, and book with CD and EP will be available for sale on August 5th. Those who purchase the bundles will instantly receive an advance download of the EP. Click here to pre-order Swanlights and Thank You For Your Love.
On "Thank You For Your Love", Antony expresses a soul-infused cry of gratitude, but the song progresses into urgency, leaving behind the 4/4 rhythms and breaking into an emotional gallop that reveals an underlying pathos.  "You Are The Treasure" is the calm after the storm, "My Lord My Love" closes the A side as a song for a lost childhood. The B side features two unusual covers accompanied by Kevin Barker on Acoustic Guitar, the first is Bob Dylan's "Pressing On", Antony's take is sweet, upbeat and beautiful. "Imagine" collaboration with avant-garde ambient composer William Basinski is a foreboding take on John Lennon's hallowed song.
Artwork for the EP features photographs Antony took when he first arrived in NYC as a teenager in the early 90's.
Antony and the Johnsons will also release their new album, "Swanlights", on October 12th in the US via Secretly Canadian.  Abrams Image will simultaneously release a special edition of "Swanlights" which will include the CD inside a 144-page hard cover book containing Antony's paintings, collages, photography and writing. The album only version of "Swanlights" on Secretly Canadian will also include the song "Flétta", a duet with Björk. The album and book are a continuation of Antony's work exploring his connection to the natural world.

A review of Terrence Malick's "The New World," now on Criterion Blu-ray and DVD.
Anyone without a history of watching James Woods in the movies might easily misread "Cop." They might think this is simply a violent, sick, contrived exploitation picture, and that would certainly be an accurate description of its surfaces. But Woods operates in this movie almost as if he were writing his own footnotes. He uses his personality, his voice and his quirky sense of humor to undermine the material and comment on it, until "Cop" becomes an essay on this whole genre of movie. And then, with the movie's startling last shot, Woods slams shut the book.
The film stars Woods, who is the most engaging and unconventional of leading men, as a brilliant but twisted cop. He's a lone ranger, and he likes to shoot first and ask questions later. In the movie's unsettling opening scene, he kills a man who is possibly innocent, and then lets his partner clean up the mess while he tries to pick up the dead man's date. No wonder Woods is considered a danger to public safety, even by his own superiors. He makes Dirty Harry look cool and reflective.
Before long a plot begins to emerge. A dead body is discovered, and Woods, working backwards from the date of the crime and piecing together apparently unrelated clues, becomes convinced that the dead woman is the latest of a long string of murders by the same serial killer. His superiors don't want to hear about it. The last thing Los Angeles needs is another mass murderer.
But Woods persists. He interviews a kinky cop and cross-examines a feminist bookstore owner (Lesley Ann Warren), whose high school yearbook may contain the clue to the mystery. Can it be that events 20 years ago in high school have triggered a series of killings that have continued ever since? It can in Woods' mind, and he stays on the case even after the department has stripped him of his badge and gun because of . . . well, because basically he represents a danger to the community.
The screenplay of "Cop" was based by the director, James B. Harris, on Blood on the Moon, a thriller by James Ellroy. It contains echoes of the great film noir stories of the 1940s, where the supporting cast is filled with various sleaze bags and weirdos who are ticked off, one by one, by the hero. The difference this time is that Woods is as sleazy and weird as any of them. He is not above breaking and entering and stealing evidence and making love to potential witnesses in order to get information (or, for that matter, simply in order to get laid). He wants to solve this case, but not so much because he wants to punish evildoing as because he is one stubborn SOB and he doesn't like to be told not to do something.
Woods was born to play this role. He uses a curious and effective technique to get laughs, of which the movie has plenty. Instead of saying funny things, he knows how to throw in a pause, just along enough for the audience to figure out what he's really thinking, so that when he says a straight line, it's funny. The result is creepy; he invites us into his mind and makes us share his obsession.
"Cop" is a violent movie, all the more so because it is so casual about the violence. It sees its events through the mind of a man who should never have been a cop and who has been a cop much too long. Yet the Woods character is not stupid and not brutal, just several degrees off from normal.
As we follow him through his "case of the yearbook murders," we can figure out the clues and sometimes arrive at conclusions before he does, but we can never quite figure out what is driving him on this case. There are strange psychological clues, as in the unforgettable scene where he tells his little daughter a bedtime story that's based on straight police procedure, but by the end the character still remains an enigma. It's as if Woods and Harris watched a "Dirty Harry" movie one night and decided to see what would happen if Harry were really dirty.
This movie is trying to kill these women, but they endure.

The Senate Appropriations Committee would cut some science and technology budgets while allocating large increases for next-generation projects that include the Commerce Department's polar satellite and NASA's space telescope.
The committee approved the Commerce, Justice, Science and related agencies spending package totaling $53 billion for fiscal 2012, $626 million below the fiscal year 2011 enacted level, according to a Sept. 15 news release.
Sen. Barbara Mikulski (D-Md,), who chairs an Appropriations Committee subcommittee with jurisdiction in this area, described it as a "spending bill that has less to spend" that nonetheless allocated more than $12 billion to scientific research and development, which is expected to contribute to job creation.
The Senate appropriations bill would provide $920 million for the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's Joint Polar Satellite System, $438 million more than the fiscal 2011 amount. It also is more than twice the $430 million allocated by the House appropriations bill. The satellite is being developed for advanced weather forecasting efforts.
House panel releases Commerce, Justice, NASA budget for fiscal 2012
Overall, NOAA would receive $5 billion in the Senate committee bill, which was $434 million above the fiscal 2011 enacted level.
The Senate package also would fund NASA's James Webb Space Telescope at $530 million, which was substantially more than the $374 million requested in the Obama administration's budget. NASA would receive $17.9 billion, a reduction of 2.8 percent from the fiscal 2011 enacted level.
While the Webb telescope has gone significantly over its initial budget, the Senate committee provided enough funds -- if the measure survives the rest of the approval process -- to enable the scheduled 2018 launch of the telescope. The panel also said it would cap total costs for the project at $8 billion.
Other science programs would see reductions under the Senate bill.
The National Science Foundation would get funding of $6.7 billion in fiscal 2012, $162 million below the current enacted level.
The National Institute for Standards and Technology would receive $680 million, $70 million below the fiscal 2011 enacted level. The senators did not include any money for NIST's Technology Innovation Program and Baldrige Excellence Program.
The Senate has not yet voted on the appropriations bill, and the approved Senate bill needs to be reconciled with the final House version before the spending package can become law.

The Challenge of Bologna: What United States Higher Education Has to Learn from Europe, and Why It Matters That We Learn Itby Paul L. Gaston, Carol Geary Schneider
Pub. Date: 01/28/2010
Publisher: Stylus Publishing, LLC
This book is essential reading for anyone concerned about the ability of America's higher education system to position the
In 1999, a declaration formalizing "the European process" was signed at and informally named for Europe's oldest university: Bologna. "The Bologna Process" has transformed higher education in Europe.
This book is essential reading for anyone concerned about the ability of America's higher education system to position the country for competitiveness in a global economy, about its failure to broaden access and participation, or to respond to calls for accountability, and specifically about whether it is ready to address the redoubtable challenge that Bologna Process represents on all these issues.
In this book Paul Gaston assesses the Process' accomplishments, weighing its strengths and weaknesses, and evaluates which features pose a threat, which we can learn from, and which may be inappropriate for our system of higher education.
Bologna's achievements in making higher education more accessible, in rationalizing and making consistent the evaluation of credits, and the definition and measurement of learning outcomes for all disciplines, all constitute a major "wake-up call" for American higher education.
If we consider Europeans' increased participation in higher education, their increased graduation rates, and the fact that Europe is retaining more of its students and attracting more international students, American higher education may be losing its competitive advantage.
For all these reasons, it is vital that educators and policy makers understand Bologna and its implications for American higher education. It represents a formidable challenge on a matter of national priority. This book provides that understanding by offering a realistic and balanced account of Bologna's achievements, and suggesting how US higher education can constructively and effectively respond.

"The elegant use of white in Yoshiko's abstract quilts gives them a unique and artful appearance. Her meticulously designed and executed quilts include elements of the Modern quilting style, yet go a few steps further into Modern art territory...Stunning, inspirational and thought provoking." - Machine Quilting Unlimited
Praise for author's previous title, Quilt Artistry:
"Many quilters are inspired by colors or prints. For this collection of minimal, graphic quilts, Jinzenji was inspired by white. This leads to some surprisingly eye-catching works of fabric art. Jinzenji takes traditional patchwork in a bold, graphic direction, incorporates appliqued lines of code on a white background, and uses sheer fabric to add dimension to her quilts. Full instructions and patterns are provided for 30 projects, several of which could be attempted by beginning quilters. It's exciting to see an artist make something commonplace--the quilt--so radically different." - Library Journal
"Inspiration, practical information, and beautiful photography make this book a winner." - Piecework
"The serenity of the chosen textiles presented in such peaceful settings is amplified by her stunning workmanship and enchanting photography." - Yvonne Porcella, founder of Studio Art Quilt Associates
"This book is as beautiful as her quilts, and reveals the mystery behind some of the best of her works." - Joe Cunningham, author of Quilting with Style
"Yoshiko's work is a rarity even in the world of art-to-wear and its non-wearable textile art relatives: utterly unique." - Dana De Zoysa, Curled Up with a Good Book
"...beautiful, inspiring...The subtler works, those with only a few shades and tones of color are the epitome of sophistication." - Lauren Camp, Surface Design Journal
"It is [a] feast for both the eyes and soul." - The Professional Quilter
"Yoshiko Jinzenji can see the universe in a quilt block." - The Paducah Sun
About the Author
Yoshiko Jinzenji has been quilting for more than three decades and teaching for two. During her thirty years of artisanal quiltmaking, she has synthesized a wide range of cultural styles, and her work has been exhibited around the world, with pieces in the permanent collection of the Museum of Art and Design, The Victoria and Albert Museum, New England Quilt Museum, and the Spencer Museum of Art at The University of Kansas. Yoshiko has authored multiple books, including Quilt Artistry, and teaches quilting and fabric dyeing in Japan and in Bali.

Stonington - A state Freedom of Information Commission hearing officer is recommending the agency dismiss a request by The Day to force state police to release possibly inappropriate images that First Selectmen Ed Haberek allegedly sent to a Pawcatuck woman using his town-issued BlackBerry in January 2010.
State police had obtained search warrants to seize phone records, computers and hundreds of pages of material from Haberek's Facebook account after the woman filed a criminal complaint. Police later determined that no crime had been committed.
When The Day requested access to the images and the corresponding investigative documents, state police refused to release them. Police said they were exempt from disclosure under the Freedom of Information law because the investigation ultimately involved uncorroborated allegations and a signed witness statement and records that, if disclosed, would constitute an invasion of personal privacy.
The Day appealed the denial to the Freedom of Information Commission. But FOI attorney Valicia Dee Harmon, who held a hearing on The Day's appeal in February, has agreed with state police and recommended that the material not be released.
The commission will consider her recommendation when it meets July 13 to render a final decision.
During the February hearing, The Day argued there was on overriding public interest in releasing the Facebook images and messages the woman had said Haberek sent her using town-owned equipment because such behavior often results in the discipline of employees in both the public and private sector.
The Day maintained that residents had a right to know if the town's chief elected officer used equipment assigned to him for town business to engage in such behavior.
The Day further argued that voters have the right to know if the incident did occur, especially since they will have to decide whether or not to re-elect Haberek this fall.
In her recommendation, Harmon pointed out that the FOI law does not require the disclosure of "records of law enforcement agencies not otherwise available to the public which records were compiled in connection with the detection or investigation of crime, if the disclosure of said records would not be in the public interest because it would result in the disclosure of ... uncorroborated allegations subject to destruction pursuant to section 1-216."
She found that the release of the records would not be in the public interest because they contained uncorroborated allegations subject to destruction. She also said the images and other material could now be destroyed because the investigation has been concluded.

The deferred airfreight transportation services and drayage provider attributed the loss primarily to one-time costs associated with its acquisition of TQI, which accounted for $27.4 million ($0.90 per diluted share) of the second quarter 2016 net loss.
The Montreal, Canada-based Class I railway posted a net income of C$858 million (U.S. $649.8)on revenues of C$2.8 billion for the second quarter of 2016, a year-over-year drop of 3 percent and 9 percent, respectively.
The Dubai-based container terminal operator posted a cargo throughput of 31.4 million TEUs at its container terminals in the first six months of 2016, a 1.2 percent increase from the same 2015 period on a like-for-like basis.
Registration takes less than 1 minute.
The freight transportation analyst said its Shippers Conditions Index is at its highest sustained level since 2011, but conditions for shippers should reverse in 2017, as fuel prices increase and regulatory drag tightens capacity.
Chainalytics Vice President of Transportation Kevin Zweier explained that collaborative transportation is a useful strategy, provided shippers put in the homework before and after bid events.
Terminals and carriers rush to clarify how shippers can meet the International Maritime Organization's requirement scheduled to go into effect tomorrow, in which shippers must provide the verified gross mass of containers before they are loaded on ships.

This book was a bit confusing to me. For the majority of the time, it was a mostly sex, not even enough romance to justify calling it a romance novel, just sex. Then, toward the end the romance creeps in, and you start feeling the vibe, and them WHAM you are sideswiped by overt violence. It is was so, in a word, Hollywood.
I liked the character of Vivien a lot, most of the time, but there were times, usually when the writing became sexually graphic, that I felt she seemed, well, out of character. It made for a very bipolar effect for me. I loved the idea of her casting men of various ages to scope out the goods. The whole "cougar" phenomenon is still pretty hot right now, so the fact that she was checking out younger men was actually pretty believable.
I was certainly more interested in what happened in Vivien's office than in her personal life. I loved the various characters around the office, and in some ways I saw them as more her family than her real family was, something many working professionals experience. The twist at the end made me see how important that office family really was to her.
I am not one for sexually gratuitous novels, so in a lot of ways, this book was not a good fit for me, but for those readers who just cannot get enough heat, this book is sure to singe your fingertips.
I received a review copy of this book courtesy of the author.
I found this book to be very in your face and Hollywood-y, which I think was the purpose. Vivien was an over-the-top woman on a mission. I found her reaction to her husband's betrayal a little sad and pathetic. Instead of moving on with her life in a productive and mature manner, she turns to revenge and sleaze. But it was quite humourous to read.
The character of Gavin, Vivien's son, was a bit confusing to me. I couldn't really get a grasp on what age he was. Apparently he was 13, but at various times in the book, he seemed much older, or much younger. It seemed that has the story progressed, he went from acting 16 or 17 backwards to 10 or 11. But I don't have much experience with teenaged boys, so maybe his behaviour makes sense. I'm sure growing up in Hollywood makes a big difference as well.
Overall, I found the book entertaining, albeit a tad too direct for me. I have reached an age where I prefer my romance novels sweet and subtle. But that it just a personal opinion. I know plenty of readers would appreciate the "bodice ripper" qualities.
The ins and outs of Vivien Slate's work life are the best things about the novel, followed closely by the amount of effort Rowe puts into making Vivien a very complicated but ultimately redeemable character. Unlike the two-dimensional cardboard cutouts one often finds in many mainstream, female-led narratives, Vivien is a mess of true-to-life neuroses and contradictions, and Rowe allows her many instances in which she makes some very bad decisions. You know, like a *real person.* Some readers may hate her, but even at her worst, I found her relatable. That's a tough trick to pull off.
I appreciate the novel's resistance to settling into any one particular genre, going from dark satire to relationship drama to ensemble piece to sex comedy etc. etc. etc., but every so often, the tone threatens to jump off the rails. It never quite does that, and the balancing act has a very unique style to it, but some of the emotions get lost in the process, especially for many of the side characters who get lost in the shuffle.
But Vivien, at the center, is a great keystone that holds together some of the novel's lesser elements. Paired with Rowe's extremely knowledgeable insight into the film industry, the novel works.

Editorial Reviews
From Publishers Weekly
"Witty, lucid, solicitous of the average person's difficulty in grasping the conceptual underpinnings of international finance....Lanchester manages to know enough to explain the terrain clearly and yet he never loses his perspective…Lanchester had me in the palm of his hand…" —Salon.com
"[A] writer with literary bona fides…[Lanchester] has the intellectual heft and the chops, as a jazz musician might say, to deliver a resounding book about the crisis….An elegant and wonderfully witty writer, Mr. Lanchester approaches his subject with a newcomer's verve. It's infectious….frame[s] the Great Recession in startlingly original terms." —Devin Leonard, The New York Times, Sunday Business
"Warning to bankers everywhere in the world. You better buy every single copy of I.O.U. because Lanchester's painted the target on you that the rest of us so desperately wanted to see. My prediction: bankers may be an endangered species once I.O.U. gets out, and from this read, I can tell you, while I hate to rush Darwin, it can't happen fast enough." —James J. Cramer, host of CNBC's Mad Money and author of Jim Cramer's Getting Back to Even
"[Lanchester] brings his mischievous wit to bear on the Great Credit Crackup in his boisterous primer….His method: to boil complex instruments and linkages down to anecdotes, outlandish images and acerbic asides that strip away those layers of bank jargon. The result is the perfect read for anyone still wondering what went wrong and why." —Bloomberg News
"In I.O.U., the only truly entertaining book I've read on the subject, the British writer John Lanchester theorizes that after the Cold War, capitalism could go wild because Western governments no longer had to worry about competing with communism. This is a fascinating idea…" —Jacob Weisberg, Newsweek
"[John Lanchester has] leaped into nonfiction, combining prodigious research and reporting with his storytelling gift. The result is this elegantly crafted little book-equal parts history, economic primer, and social commentary-that manages to be, by turns, acidic, frightening, and sharply funny. What it is not is boring. In fact, this is a better book about the global meltdown than any other to date-and some of our best financial and business writers have weighed in on the subject….He explains everything so lucidly, so simply, refracted through the lens of history for perspective, that it all makes perfect sense. A" —Tina Jordan, Entertainment Weekly
"The novelist John Lanchester's short book on the finance crisis, I.O.U.,…is literary and profound….But this is not just finance-for-poets. Lanchester…is a master explainer with an excellent grasp of sophisticated finance. His book is a gem." —Christopher Caldwell, The Daily Beast
"I.O.U. is the map to the crazed world of contemporary finance we have all been waiting for. John Lanchester's superb book is everything its subject, the 2008 crash, was not: namely lucid, beautifully contrived, comprehensible to the reader with no specialist knowledge—and most of all devastatingly funny. I urge you to read it." —Will Self, author of Liver
"I.O.U. is so clear and funny and cleverly written. I love the personal asides and observations and jokes and bits of autobiography that make it seem human and not text-book like. And the more and more improbable analogies for the ups and downs of the markets (a bride's nightie...a gorilla on a pogo stick). But what I like most is that it makes me feel intelligent, because I can now understand all this stuff." —Marina Lewycka, author of A Short History of Tractors in Ukrainian

* it's short, but comprehensive - in just over 200 pages, he tells you not just what happened, but how and why
* it's brilliantly written - Lanchester, a novelist and regular contributor to "The New Yorker" and "London Review of Books", hits the ideal combination of explanation and analysis. When he started his research from the book, he did so as a smart, intelligent outsider, with the curiosity and bulls**t-detecting skills of a keen reporter, all of which makes him an ideal guide.
* the author's ability to explain complicated technical material in a way that is succinct, but crystal clear
* even though some of the book's implications are pretty depressing, Lanchester is authoritative, clear-sighted, and extremely funny
* his ability to place events in the relevant historical and cultural perspective is impressive
Before reading "I.O.U.", the only other work by Lanchester that I had read was his debut novel "The Debt to Pleasure" (which won the Whitbread award, among other prizes). That book had a certain appeal, but was also quite disturbing. This latest book is a terrific accomplishment, and I have no reservations about giving it my highest rating.
One of Lanchester's concluding metaphors is borrowed from climate scientist James Lovelock, who observed, about 20 years ago, that what the planet needed was the equivalent of a small heart attack. Such an episode, in an individual's life, is often beneficial, because it forces the person to fact unpleasant facts and to adopt a healthier lifestyle. In Lanchester's view, the recent economic crisis, is the equivalent of laissez-faire capitalism's small heart attack.Read more ›
While this book still occasionally leaves me in the dust, the author has done the best job I've seen in aiding this "non-Streeter's" understanding of the events that caused the "Great Recession." Mr. Lanchester uses ordinary examples to explain what happened, which helped me a great deal.
I'm often told that nobody fully understands what happened or how these extraordinarily complex investment "opportunities" came to exist or what they contain(ed). I believe that, but I'm trying to get to the bottom of the whole pile of delusion: big money investors attempting to "hedge" risk out of existence and creating vehicles that served no useful purchase except to make them rich. And they're still rich.
If you are interested in some basic information on the genesis of this crisis, then turn to John Lanchester and his book "Whoops!" first.
It's also mighty interesting that the book, a 2010 UK copyright, is currently unavailable ANYWHERE in the US--at least it was when I ordered my copy.
And by the way: the book is well written and often (and unexpectedly) humorous.
* A reasonably clear and understandable explanation of financial
derivatives and instruments.
* A short history of the latest boom and bust, how it happened in the
U.K. and the U.S., and some of the devastating effects in Detroit and
* Why and how we (humans) can't judge risk and shouldn't be trusted with
our own money. Also, why risk analysis models and programs help us to
take on even more risk than we should have and to make even worse
decisions than we would have.
* How things that were wrong were not detected by the people that should
have and why.
* A short history of financial deregulation and of regulatory failure in
both the U.K. and the U.S.
What's wrong:
* The values, both theirs and ours. After all, many of us were the ones
who maxed our credit cards and took on the mortgages we couldn't repay
and consolidated our loans so we could borrow more and ...
* The system -- It's not just a few bad people in the system (though we
had enough of those, too), it's the people that make up the system and
the power that they have and way the system responds to those people.
* The influence -- Our government responds to pressure (a democracy
should); but increasingly our government, in the U.S. responds to
pressure from those that have money or power or both. We are,
according to Lanchester, like a banana republic, 3rd world country in
that respect.
* The incentives - The pay and financial rewords for executives and for
those working in the financial industry are misaligned.Read more ›

WASHINGTON, DC-The latest Real Estate Roundtable quarterly Sentiment Survey has been released and while its findings may be in keeping with the economic reports du jour—namely, that the commercial real estate markets will continue their gradual recovery at a modest pace—the timing of the survey holds interesting insights into the CRE community.
Simply put, because the survey was released now, it is easy to overlook the fact that it was actually taken at the end of last year when the economy appeared to be particularly robust and there was genuine enthusiasm over Congress reaching a budget. 2014, in short, was being heralded as the breakout year for all things financial when the Roundtable contacted the CRE executives for their insights.
A few short months later, economic indicators—to say nothing of two lackluster employment reports—point to a still-stolid recovery.
" Real estate executives that were surveyed were more realistic in their viewpoint of the economy than the government itself, as well as other economists, were at the end of 2013," CEO Jeff DeBoer tells GlobeSt.com.
It is not surprising, he adds—people in the industry tend to be involved with the economy on a day-to-day, in-the-trenches manner. "They are the first to understand what is happening and how events will likely play out," DeBoer says. "In many ways they were ahead of what some of the official statistics would later reveal."
With that in mind, let's take a look at the survey.
The Q1 Index rose two points to 69.
The best way to describe respondents' attitude a sustainable economy recovery is 'lingering wariness', DeBoer says.
This caution goes beyond the current numbers—which admittedly could have been impacted by the severe weather—to focus on various policy risks, such as scheduled sunset of the Terrorism Risk Insurance Act (TRIA) on Dec. 31, tax reforms that could cause major dislocation in real estate markets, and the economic conditions surrounding future interest rate hikes, which could put renewed pressure on valuations, complicate loan refinancing, and impede debt servicing.
"Those are all issues on the minds' of respondents right now," DeBoer says.
Other findings from the survey:
- Confidence is supported by improving fundamentals but offset by expectations of rising interest rates; at the same time, transaction volumes and capital flows have picked up, particularly in secondary markets.
- Asset values are expected to remain mostly flat over the coming year, with potential for modest appreciation coming from improving property level cash flows rather than further cap rate compression.
- Both debt and equity capital are seen as widely available as foreign capital continues to move into the US; some fear a resurgence of frothy behavior.
