The Deadly Dust: The Unhappy History Of DDT
February 1971 | Volume 22, Issue 2
In other studies the magnification rate in specific food chains was measured. In the bottom of Lake Michigan's Green Bay, for example, live billions of tiny crustaceans. The mud was found to contain 0.014 p.p.m. of DDT; the crustaceans, absorbing DDT from the mud, concentrated it in their bodies to 0.41 p.p.m.; fish, feeding on the crustaceans, concentrated DDT in their bodies to from 3 to 6 p.p.m.; herring gulls feeding on the fish accumulated DDT to the level of 99 p.p.m. This concentration, though not immediately fatal to individual gulls, reduces normal reproduction. The eggs of these herring gulls contained 227 p.p.m. of DDT, and their shells were abnormally thin.
By the late 1950's it was clear to Miss Carson, and other knowledgeable observers, that DDT's increasingly massive invasion of the food chain was largely responsible for the fact that bald eagles were ceasing to breed on the East Coast between Florida and Maine (large concentrations of DDT residues were found in the brains of prematurely dead eagles) ; that eagles in the Great Lakes region faced extinction because their egg shells were growing too thin (the physiological mechanism by which DDT inhibits calcium production would soon be discovered); that peregrine falcons were disappearing as breeding birds in the whole eastern half of the U.S.; that ospreys would disappear from Connecticut by the early 1970's if present rates of decline continued. Nor was DDT's invasion of the food chain limited to land or to offshore waters. Oceanic food chains were being similarly contaminated, and ocean currents were spreading DDT residues to the most remote corners of the earth.
Predictable in a general way by the pattern of events was the sad case of the Bermuda petrel, a carnivorous bird that feeds solely on oceanic life far from any area where DDT is used. The bird comes to Bermuda for only a few hours, at night, to lay its eggs. It eats nothing there. Yet its eggs in the late 1960's contained 6.44 p.p.m. of DDT on the average, and its reproduction was declining at a rate which, if continued, must end in complete reproductive failure by 1978. Even Antarctica's Adélie penguins, Weddell seals, and skua gulls, carnivores all, were soon found to carry trace amounts of DDT in their fat, though they live thousands of miles from the nearest area of DDT use. Undoubtedly they ingest DDT residues in their food.
But DDT was also found, in the 1960's, in Antarctic snow,∗ indicating that the food chain is not the only means by which the poison spreads. Studies conducted in Maine and New Brunswick, Canada, in the 1950's showed that approximately half the DDT sprayed over forests at treetop level hung suspended in the atmosphere to be spread worldwide on the wind. DDT attached to erosion debris also travels in irrigation water, rivers, and ocean currents.
∗Some 2,400 tons of it have been estimated to have accumulated by now in Antarctica's snows.
The realization that the oceans' organisms are becoming depositories for DDT has led some ecologists to premonitions of an apocalypse, based on the assumption that much of the oxygen in the atmosphere is produced through photosynthesis by marine phytoplankton (vegetable life). Hence, anything that might inhibit oceanic photosynthesis on a large scale is a threat to life on earth.
Scientists of this persuasion took little comfort in the 1968 report by Charles F. Wurster, Jr., of the State University of New York at Stony Brook; in the laboratory very low concentrations of DDT had measurably reduced photosynthesis in cultures of four species of coastal and oceanic phytoplankton representing four major classes of algae. Furthermore, the same had been found true of a natural phytoplankton community (as distinct from a laboratory culture) at Woods Hole. "I'll tell you what we worry about most," said David M. Gates, director of the Missouri Botanical Garden in St. Louis, to a reporter in 1969, "—an irreversible catastrophe. A number of pesticide spills, for example, in those areas of the ocean where … much of the world's oxygen [is produced]. If you plot the frequency of this kind of event, they're getting closer and closer." Much of this kind of fear has been allayed by recent scientific findings that suggest that no significant interchange of oxygen occurs between ocean and atmosphere, and, in addition, that some phytoplankton are considerably less sensitive to pesticides than others. Such findings, of course, do not alter the fact that any large-scale interference with ocean life would have serious repercussions.
Whatever its ultimate effects may be, the frightening fact is that most of the hundreds of millions of pounds of DDT sprayed over the world during the last quarter century remain in circulation- only a fraction has decayed into harmless substances—and no one can say what fatal damage it alone (apart from the DDT being constantly added) may yet do.

Mode of transportation affects how we feel, study finds
People are in the best mood while they are bicycling compared to any other mode of transportation, a new study has found. Researchers investigated how emotions like happiness, pain, stress, sadness and fatigue vary during travel and by travel mode. After bicyclists, the next happiest are car passengers and then car drivers. Bus and train riders experience the most negative emotions, though a small part of this can be attributed to the fact that mass transit is disproportionately used for commuting to and from work, according to the researchers.

Skip to comments.Russian Troops Coming to U.S. for Terror Drills, DoD Confirms
Posted on 04/28/2012 2:44:58 PM PDT by IbJensen
click here to read article
"In a private conversation about the planned U.S.-led NATO missile defense system in Europe, President Barack Obama asked outgoing Russian President Dmitry Medvedev for space on the issue.
This is my last election, Obama told Medvedev. After my election I have more flexibility.
I understand. I will transmit this information to Vladimir, Medvedev said, referring to incoming President Vladimir Putin."
Obama was talking with Russian President Dmitry Medvedev when neither of them realized that their conversation was being picked up by microphones. Here is what they said:
Obama: On all these issues, but particularly missile defense, this, this can be solved, but its important for him to give me space.
Medvedev: Yeah, I understand. I understand your message about space. Space for you ...
Obama: This is my last election. After my election, I have more flexibility.
Medvedev: I understand. I will transmit this information to Vladimir.
This is my last election. After my election I have more flexibility. That statement tells us much about the presidents mindset.
The specific mention of missile defense is worrisome enough. Mr. Obama has retreated from the missile defense plan that was negotiated with European allies during the George W. Bush administration. Apparently, he is signaling Moscow that he intends to retreat further. The clear implication from the presidents comments is that he cannot tell the American people before the election what he plans to do after the election.
In addition, there is the phrase on all these issues, implying more is at stake than just missile defense.
Article: Obama plans double cross on missile defense
When it comes to keeping America safe, we shouldnt be too flexible:
Vladimir Putin praised Cold War-era scientists on Thursday for stealing U.S. nuclear secrets so that United States would not be the world's sole atomic power, in comments reflecting his vision of Russia as a counterweight to U.S. power.
Spies with suitcases full of data helped the Soviet Union build its atomic bomb, he told military commanders.
"You know, when the States already had nuclear weapons and the Soviet Union was only building them, we got a significant amount of information through Soviet foreign intelligence channels," Putin said, according to state-run Itar-Tass.
"The were carrying the information away not on microfilm but literally in suitcases. Suitcases!"
Putin's remarks referred to the dawn of the Cold War more than half a century ago, but they echoed a message he has made loud and clear more recently: that the United States needs to be restrained, and Russia is the country to do it.

Obama Pledges Cuts in Missile Defense, Space, and Nuclear Weapons Programs
February 29, 2008 :: News
A video has surfaced of Presidential candidate Senator Barack Obama talking on his plans for strategic issues such as nuclear weapons and missile defense.
The full text from the video, as released, reads as follows:
Thanks so much for the Caucus4Priorities, for the great work you've been doing. As president, I will end misguided defense policies and stand with Caucus4Priorities in fighting special interests in Washington.
First, I'll stop spending $9 billion a month in Iraq. I'm the only major candidate who opposed this war from the beginning. And as president I will end it.[not win it -etl]
Second, I will cut tens of billions of dollars in wasteful spending.
I will cut investments in unproven missile defense systems.
I will not weaponize space.
I will slow our development of future combat systems.
And I will institute an independent "Defense Priorities Board" to ensure that the Quadrennial Defense Review is not used to justify unnecessary spending.
Third, I will set a goal of a world without nuclear weapons. To seek that goal, I will not develop new nuclear weapons; I will seek a global ban on the production of fissile material; and I will negotiate with Russia to take our ICBMs off hair-trigger alert [they are NOT on "hair-trigger alert" now -etl], and to achieve deep cuts in our nuclear arsenals.
You know where I stand. I've fought for open, ethical and accountable government my entire public life. I don't switch positions or make promises that can't be kept. I don't posture on defense policy and I don't take money from federal lobbyists for powerful defense contractors. As president, my sole priority for defense spending will be protecting the American people. Thanks so much.

2008 Pentagon Report (March 2008):
China's Growing Military Space Power
By Leonard David
Special Correspondent, SPACE.com
March 6, 2008
GOLDEN, Colorado A just-released Pentagon report spotlights a growing U.S. military concern that China is developing a multi- dimensional program to limit or prevent the use of space-based assets by its potential adversaries during times of crisis or conflict.
Furthermore, last year's successful test by China of a direct-ascent, anti-satellite (ASAT) weapon to destroy its own defunct weather satellite, the report adds, underscores that country's expansion from the land, air, and sea dimensions of the traditional battlefield into the space and cyber-space domains.
Although China's commercial space program has utility for non- military research, that capability demonstrates space launch and control know-how that have direct military application. Even the Chang'e 1 the Chinese lunar probe now circling the Moon is flagged in the report as showcasing China's ability "to conduct complicated space maneuvers a capability which has broad implications for military counterspace operations."

[2009] Russia, China plan new joint military exercises
By MARTIN SIEFF, UPI Senior News Analyst
Published: March 26, 2009
WASHINGTON, March 26 (UPI) -- The continuing tensions over Russia's refusal to sell its state-of-the-art land warfare advanced weapons systems to China hasn't interrupted the rhythm of major joint military exercises between the two major land powers on the Eurasian landmass. The latest in the regular, biennial series of exercises between the two nations has been confirmed for this summer.
The next in the now well-established series of exercises called Peace Mission 2009 will be carried out in northeastern China, the Russian Defense Ministry announced March 18, according to a report carried by the RIA Novosti news agency.
The first bilateral Peace Mission maneuvers -- described at the time as counter-terrorism exercises -- were held in Russia and the eastern Chinese province of Shandong in August 2005. As we reported at that time, they were a lot bigger than mere counter-terrorism exercises. Warships, squadrons of combat aircraft and more than 10,000 troops were involved carrying out landings against hypothetically hostile shores. The maneuvers also involved large-scale paratroops drops. The scale and nature of those exercises suggested a trial run for a possible Chinese invasion of Taiwan with Russian support. ..."
Russia, China flex muscles in joint war games
August 17, 2007
CHEBARKUL, Russia (Reuters) - Russia and China staged their biggest joint exercises on Friday but denied this show of military prowess could lead to the formation of a counterweight to NATO.
"Today's exercises are another step towards strengthening the relations between our countries, a step towards strengthening international peace and security, and first and foremost, the security of our peoples," Putin said.
Fighter jets swooped overhead, commandos jumped from helicopters on to rooftops and the boom of artillery shells shook the firing range in Russia's Ural mountains as two of the largest armies in the world were put through their paces.
The exercises take place against a backdrop of mounting rivalry between the West, and Russia and China for influence over Central Asia, a strategic region that has huge oil, gas and mineral resources.
Russia's growing assertiveness is also causing jitters in the West. Putin announced at the firing range that Russia was resuming Soviet-era sorties by its strategic bomber aircraft near NATO airspace.
War Games: Russia, China Grow Alliance
September 23, 2005
In foreign policy its critical to know thine enemy. So American policymakers should be aware that Russia and China are inching closer to identifying a common enemy the United States.
The two would-be superpowers held unprecedented joint military exercises Aug. 18-25. Soothingly named Peace Mission 2005, the drills took place on the Shandong peninsula on the Yellow Sea, and included nearly 10,000 troops. Russian long-range bombers, the army, navy, air force, marine, airborne and logistics units from both countries were also involved.
Moscow and Beijing claim the maneuvers were aimed at combating terrorism, extremism and separatism (the last a veiled reference to Taiwan), but its clear they were an attempt to counter-balance American military might.
Joint war games are a logical outcome of the Sino-Russian Friendship and Cooperation Treaty signed in 2001, and reflect the shared worldview and growing economic ties between the two Eastern Hemisphere giants."
"Peace Mission 2010
Looks like the military exercise between Shanghai Cooperation Organization is becoming an annual occurrence instead of bi-annual [ie, 2005, 2007, 2009].
According to rian, the next one will be this September [2010]. ..."
Every American-loving citizen should be seriously concerned about Russia, particularly given the current Obama administration and their numerous appeasements to them. They have aided just about every enemy we have ever had, including the islamo-terrorist state of Iran. They were behind Saddam in the last war there. It's nothing to be mocking, minimizing or dismissing.
Spetsnaz MVD-FSB combat operations in Caucasus (18+)
There will NEVER be rebellion here, because the troops will NEVER refuse to put it down. And if by some miracle I was wrong, doesn't matter they still have unmanned drones and missiles to put it down.
I'm 26 and used to watch Rockey and Bullwinkle pretty often.
I have not seen Dr. Strangelove in a very long time!!
...as it is for us all, Brother.
Such diplomatic joint exercises are nothing new. They won't be sharing any state secrets. Infantry related accommodations are as difficult as ever, no doubt. Maybe the visit and increasing familiarity will make for slightly better relations in Asia.
The only interest Russia has in the terror-war is that as much of it is visited upon the United States as possible.
They get along well with Obozo and his evil regime as they're liars as well!
Maybe the Russians will teach the secret service how to handle hookers.
Something to keep in mind....
One of the criticisms of John Milius's scenarization in Red Dawn, and a "proof" of the film's "impossibility", was that the forces depicted were very thin, and the premise of invasion from Mexico blinked the probability that there would have to have been a war in Mexico first (that we lost) for the Cubans and Russians and their allies to have reached their jumping-off points.
Re the "thinness" of the invasion force, the Chinese could certainly make that go away, even if the Russians didn't.
And oh, by the way, the Chinese already have latent control of the Panama Canal, and a substantial force-in-being of "workers" down there.
"Well d*^&-it We didn't come all this way to put it in the drink...Gimme the nearest Target of Opportunity!!!"
"Fire the Explosive Bolts!!!"
—Now I know what we're going to watch tonight!!!
I had a girlfriend over one night (years ago), and I told her I wanted her to go to the video store and pick up a copy of "Dr. Strangelove" so we could watch it on my new VCR machine...
She kinda hesitated and said, "Steve, I don't really like to go into the backroom at THOSE places!!!"
Hehehe, she sure was cute about the whole thing...
BTW, have we ever been invited to do a "joint" operation/training op on Russian soil???
Other than the NASA stuff...
LOL!! I have it on my DVR line up. I never did see it from the very beginning to the very end. I always saw it going through the channels. Always missing the beginning! LOL!!
Always saw the end though! Classic!!
If ya gotta go...Then that sure is a heck of a way to go...
Out with a bang!!!
I think some BUFF pilots go thru a Major Kong phase at some point in their career...hehehe, thats ok in my opinion...

In 2008, the global urban population surpassed the rural population and by 2050 more than 6 billion will be living in urban centres. A growing body of research has reported on poor health outcomes among the urban poor but not much is known about HIV prevalence among this group. A survey of nearly 3000 men and women was conducted in two Nairobi slums in Kenya between 2006 and 2007, where respondents were tested for HIV status. In addition, data from the 2008/2009 Kenya Demographic and Health Survey were used to compare HIV prevalence between slum residents and those living in other urban and rural areas. The results showed strong intra-urban differences. HIV was 12% among slum residents compared with 5% and 6% among non-slum urban and rural residents, respectively. Generally, men had lower HIV prevalence than women although in the slums the gap was narrower. Among women, sexual experience before the age of 15 compared with after 19 years was associated with 62% higher odds of being HIV positive. There was ethnic variation in patterns of HIV infection although the effect depended on the current place of residence.

Little Dipper CrockPot Chocolate Fondue
Day 298.
It's Friday Fondue Fun Day! You can not not have fun while dipping stuff in chocolate. If you don't have fun dipping stuff in chocolate there is something wrong with you.
Go seek help.
I'll wait.
I needed a basic chocolate fondue recipe that was tried-and-true and perfect. So I turned to the mecca: Simply Recipes. I found exactly what I was looking for. Elise rocks. Garrett from Vanilla Garlic is who actually posted this for her, but I still stand by her rockingness.
The Ingredients.
--1 1/2 cups chocolate chips (semi-sweet, dark, milk, or white. Your choice.)
--1/2 cup heavy cream
--1 tsp vanilla
you can doctor this up with:
--1 T Grand Marnier
--1 T rum
--1 T Peppermint Schnapps
--1 T Bailey's Irish Cream
--1 tsp peppermint, orange, coconut, etc. extract
--pinch of espresso powder
The Directions.
The proportions here fit into a Little Dipper. Although the booklet that comes with the Little Dipper says that it only holds 1 cup of contents, I proved this wrong with my earth-shattering discovery that a whole can of Progresso Clam Chowder fits perfectly.
If you do not have a Little Dipper (psst. the holidays are coming...) you can put an oven-safe dish inside of a larger crockpot. Do not add water. There's no need to create a water bath for melting chocolate in the crockpot. It melts nice and slow. Or! you can quintuple the recipe and have a good ol' time.
Put chocolate chips in the crockpot. Add the heavy cream and teaspoon of vanilla. Cover. Plug in and cook on low (or the ON setting for the LD) for about an hour. Stir.
Serve with apple chunks, banana slices, cubes of pound cake, strawberries, or marshmallows. Or all of them and invite me over.
The Verdict.
Simple and easy and wonderful and amazing.
The kids liked the marshmallows the best, surprise, surprise.
Fondue Friday is becoming a favorite in our house (even though I really do it on Thursday, but whatever. The things I do for you people...) :-D

This review is from: LG Nexus 4 E960 16 GB storage, 2 GB RAM 3G 4G LTE Black 16GB Unlocked Cell Phone 4.7"
Pros: contract free! 41 mbps radio that has been proven to work with LTE-> 4.2.2 update removes feature to enable radio in LTE. gorilla glass II is amazing- no scratches since purchase during initial release. The performance is amazing and the screen is great, games aps fly and look great at 60hz which is def a noticeable difference, has miracast, stock droid with updates directly from google
Cons: no micro sd card, no OTG cable (progress has been made to activate host mode manually) glass backing dangerous because easily slips and drops, battery sucks- bad- and can't be replaced- unable to open. Camera does ok in daylight but is pretty bad otherwise. JellyBean doesn't allow Facebook to sync- had to use a step around ap and still don't have all my numbers assiciated with facebook
Other Thoughts: I honestly think is a great buy. I purchased from google direct when it first came out and only bought the 8 gig, but it was still worth it. I paid to break my contract with AT-T and switched to a $30 unlimited t'mobile contract that only has 100 minutes airtime included- really ONLY- still saves a bundle!READ FULL REVIEW
This review is from: PNY GeForce GTX 670 DirectX 11 VCGGTX670XPB 2GB 256-Bit GDDR5 PCI Express 3.0 x16 HDCP Ready SLI Support Video Card
Pros: Amazing! haven't been able to get this card to skip a beat yet- assassins creed III, Metro2033, Warhead 40000: Space Marine, Walking Dead- all look amazing in 1080p all options maxed.
Cheaper than some 660 TI's.
Also the size and thickness isn't bad for the performance capability.
Cons: NO HDMI CABLE! overview states that included is a bonus 6ft hdmi to hdmi cable but newegg rep says the overview is not guaranteed? Really just a gripe over a $9 cable I didn't have to connect to tv.
Loses an egg because of annoying fan noise and warranty being void if you change it out.
"World in Conflict" min FPS were not much faster than my 8800GT in the benchmark which is kind of suspicious.
only shaved 20-30 minutes off my blu ray ripping. I have been moving my collection from blu rays to network library/drive and was hoping to speed up the process. Times improved but I expected better results.
Also reason for losing an egg is if you have a 3d hdtv and want 3d, you will need to buy additional drivers off nvidia site. if you have the 3dvision though it works outright.
Other Thoughts: "Thank you for that information. Please note that we do not guarantee information under Overview. We only guarantee information under details and item pictures. Thank you for your understanding." was response for no video cable.... which is funny because who ever does anything but look at the reviews, pictures, and list of details. whatever, first issue after I don't know how long I've been shopping here!READ FULL REVIEW
This review is from: D-Link SharePort Go Mobile Companion Rechargeable Battery (DIR-506L)
Pros: Router Mode/Access Point Mode/Repeater Mode/Wi-Fi Hot Spot Mode/DNLA and portable on battery power! Size is a plus and makes convenient. This lil thing is amazing! I was able to set it up as an internet hotspot while connecting it to another wifi network to provide internet to my personal network. The dnla feature allows to sidestep the d-link app. I was able to upload from my phone to usb drive a while of having to figure it out. Best thing was I had my usb flash media reader working with a micro sd card. Both fat32 and ntfs worked but a large (9 gig) mp4 did not recognize- may be the usb though. Came loaded with latest firmware. Swivel stand is nifty. More options that I know what to do with!
Cons: software is a lil quirky and seems basic as far as cloud service goes. Wish it were intigrated with other app's share feature. I noticed that it needed to be rebooted often when changing usb drives. 1700MAH is none too impressive but seems to get the job done. Nothing severe enough to crack any eggs.
Other Thoughts: great alternative to the wi-di devices which are not up-gradable; plus usb drives are getting cheaper. Needed this after finding out that the OTG cable might not be available for my Nexus 4. I can see this thing coming in handy when going on trips or for use at the office. Purchased while as shell-shocker deal but could see being satisfied if purchased full price. I recommend using the browser-based setup over the QRS app.READ FULL REVIEW

Constructing a portfolio through the use of a Momentum-Optimization Model (MOM) is infinitely easier than it was just a few years ago. For one, we have many commission free ETFs to use so that trading costs do not consume all returns. Computing power is the big difference, as readers will see in a few moments. If you Bing or Google search "ETF Momentum Investing" you will find many references to academic articles, discussions, and opinions as to the merits of momentum investing. Readers know we are testing a Momentum-Optimization Model with several portfolios and the very early evidence is that portfolio returns are increasing at a faster rate than the ITA Index Internal Rate of Return (IRR), our customized benchmark. However, it is still early in this test. The ITA Index is a unique benchmark established for each portfolio.
The following MOM information is not one of the eleven portfolios tracked here at ITA. Instead, it is a sample portfolio made up primarily of commission free ETFs from TDAmeritrade. There are two exceptions. BRK.B is an individual stock and SDS is an ultra-short ETF that is available for use in special circumstances. Rare is the time shares will be held in SDS.
Efficient Frontier: The shares invested in each ETF were such that the portfolio Return/Risk ratio lands nearly on top of the optimized portfolio (small red dot).
ETF Rankings: Take time to examine the ETFs used to come up with this portfolio. Most are familiar to long-term ITA readers, but it is still good to review ETFs that are used to construct a portfolio. I did not include any sector ETFs, something I do with most of the ITA portfolios. What I do is run a ranking of 10 or 11 sectors of the market and then extract three sector ETFs to be potential securities when putting together a portfolio.
Note that VTV has taken over the top spot with Berkshire Hathaway (NYSE:BRK.B) coming in second. Of particular importance is the high ranking of VTI. This total U.S. Equities ETF is performing so well that it makes it impossible for portfolios diversified across the globe to keep up. Since VTI and VTSMX are mirror index funds, our portfolios are lagging the broad U.S. market. This is not an excuse, but just a fact of this concentrated market.
Buy-Hold-Sell Recommendations: Due to my initial setup, few buy or sell decisions are necessary. VWO is an example where the optimizer is calling for an additional 4 shares, but the momentum indicator is negative. The fact that the price of VWO is below its 195-Day EMA may tilt me toward selling off some shares were this an operating portfolio.
The situation will not be as clear for some of the upcoming portfolio reviews, so pay attention to Buy, Hold, and Sell decisions. I will be examining the Euclid tomorrow and the Schrodinger on Friday.

text: The Commodity Futures Trading Commission approved rules to require swaps clearinghouses to provide access to firms with $50 million or more in capital. "This is one of the most significant rulemakings to lower risk in the financial system," said CFTC Chairman Gary Gensler. Republican commissioners opposed the rule. The CFTC backed away from a plan that would have forced systemically important financial institutions to be subjected to higher financial resource requirements. Instead, clearinghouses will be required to have enough funds to cover their largest members' default. SIFMA's primary concern is that the proposed regime may unnecessarily disrupt or limit the commodity markets. See our press release. Gensler will be a special speaker at SIFMA's 2011 Annual Meeting, Nov. 7. Register today.

Mortgage REITs continue to captivate the higher income crowd despite their roughly 25% sell off this year as measured by REM, the iShares mREIT ETF. While some sector constituents have slashed dividends by a similar amount, there have been a few, including Western Asset Mortgage (NYSE:WMC) that have kept payouts steady.
As I've written previously, mREITs represent one of the most unpredictable and convoluted income investments one can possibly own. Considerable time and effort has been made on the part of many SA writers attempting to more or less guesstimate where net asset values will sit from quarter to quarter and how much impact recent rate volatility will have on larger player dividends, including American Capital (NASDAQ:AGNC) and Annaly (NYSE:NLY).
I have found a lot of this commentary compelling and certainly feel that by nature of the NAV discounts and lower market prices we see today that there is less risk in owning sector players now versus earlier in the year. However, given the volatility endemic to the group, I'm finding recommendation of these vehicles, especially for risk intolerant investors iffy, at best. Quick moves in long rates are proving disastrous for mREIT investors. While we seem to have reached a calm after the storm for the time being, does anyone really know when or if the 10-year will take another sharp tick to the upside? How many of us were blindsided by the quick move earlier this year?
(click to enlarge) 10yr. Tbill - YTD
The Fed threw another fastball in its liquidity campaign last month, just as the market was expecting a change-up, when it announced that the highly anticipated taper would not immediately commence. Appropriate for this time of the year, investors seem to be standing at the plate somewhat flatfooted, as we contemplate the next curveball or off-speed pitch monetary policy makers throw at us next.
Just How Risky Are mREITs?
Since all sector constituents are not structured the same, risk/reward varies from company to company. Mortgage REITs with higher leverage profiles and ones that hold longer maturity paper will generally be more volatile, especially from a NAV perspective. While some possess attributes that may make them a bit "safer" comparatively speaking, the whole group suffers from pretty extreme interest rate risk, as we have certainly seen this year.
Thus one who takes a bullish position in a leveraged mREIT today should have some conviction that long rates will stay steady, head lower, or move very slowly to the upside. Personally, given the mixed signals from the Fed and the market's seeming desire to push long rates higher, I'm not willing to make any big bets on this group here. Naked exposure to mREITs could continue to be a losing proposition, although I would certainly concede that with a Fed pushing a continued dovish agenda, the near-term odds appear to be starting to shift towards the longs.
Let It Ride?
While it's pretty obvious that I consider investment in mREITs a continued gamble at this juncture, I've always been of the opinion that a portfolio should have some level of aggressive allocation within. As I read many mREIT related articles, I find surprisingly little attention or specific recommendation to how much exposure one should have to this group. In a recent article regarding income strategy, I posited that mREITs should account for somewhere between 0-5% of one's overall income stream. In the past I have interacted with SA author Corvette Kid, who suggested as much as 25% of a portfolio could be allocated to mREITs. Another author discloses as many as five separate mREIT positions, although it is unclear what portion of his portfolio is allocated to the sector.
I would readily admit that my 0-5% is intentionally conservative, so I suppose that a more aggressive, risk tolerant income investor could up the ante here and move more of their portfolio into the group. However, I think 25% is a bit extreme. Therefore I would argue that even the most aggressive of investor should hold no more than 10-15% of a portfolio in mREITs. I would be interested to hear others' thoughts on the allocation issue.
As far as individual equities goes, while I'm not banging the table on anything at the moment, I think REM is a wise one-stop choice as well as perhaps lower levered MFA Financial (NYSE:MFA) and diversified Annaly (NLY).
Despite their recent swoon, mREITs continue to present a risky investment proposition for income investors. Although I'm reluctant to advise wholesale purchase of these vehicles and myself am currently on the sidelines, aggressive investors with a more confident take on the near-term stability of long rates could see decent intermediate-term total return as net asset values creep up and continued juicy, albeit somewhat lower dividends are reaped.

We sense a growing, spreading, desire to re-think the strategy for education -- both the 'what' of school and the 'how' of change.
We've just released a new paper, which proposes a new and different 'theory of action'.
We do need very different schools, and approaches to learning. But, being practical, we can't vote-in radical change. Rather, we need to arrange for K-12 to change the way successful systems change. Through innovation.
I hope you will look at the paper, and send me your reaction -- email@example.com.
We'll be sending soon a second paper explaining how to organize the 'innovation' side of this strategy; explaining also how and why chartering lost its initial focus on innovation.
Chartering in Minnesota will be a topic of focus on this blog in 2016. We'll cover the innovation occurring in the sector's schools, new starts and school closures, personnel changes, legislative and rule making activity, the authorizer review process, and more.

There are two kinds of people in Alaska: those who were born here and those who come here to escape something. I wasn't born here." Excellent. Another good line from Ellie was "A good cop can't sleep because he's missing a piece of the puzzle. And a bad cop can't sleep because his conscience won't let him."

Metagenics Products to Achieve the Best Physique in Less Tim

Kaminak Gold (OTCPK:KMKGF) learned that some large players in the mining space are financing Kaminak Gold's Coffee Project. Specifically, the company learned that Ross Beaty and Zebra Holdings will be issued C$6.75 million in stock at C$80/share. Given that this indicates that well respected players in the industry believe in the project, the shares soared more than 30% on Monday on high volume.
On the one hand this seems to go against my initial thesis, in which I argued that I felt the company failed to incorporate several stressors and contingencies in its preliminary economic assessment. For instance I felt that the company failed to stress test the possibilities that its costs would rise, and it used a 5% discount rate in generating its headline NPV figure, which is far too generous. As a result, I argued that investors in the stock should realize that their position was speculative and contingent upon either a new discovery or a larger, well financed party taking interest in the project.
It turns out that the latter happened. On the one hand this is great news. It gives the project credibility and it means that the company will have more capital to further develop the Coffee Project. But on the other hand, the stock is up a whopping 32% on the news and there are more shares outstanding. With this in mind, and with the reversal in the direction of gold prices, I reaffirm my position that investors should wait for a pullback. However I am amending my thesis to reflect the fact that this is a stronger speculation stock than I initially thought, and I think aggressive investors can consider taking a position should the shares fall by 10% - 15%.

"Still, the Solvadi scripts to date are impressive and point to early, strong demand for the new Hep C pill," says Adam Feuerstein.
ISI analyst Mark Schoenebaum says: "If TRx were to only remain flat through year end and we assume 20% discounting on price and a similar capture rate to [Vertex Pharma's (VRTX)] Incivek for sales...we estimate that FY 2014 sales could be ~$2.4 B."
