|Sounds of the game… Celtics 90, Cavaliers 85
|10.28.08 at 10:23 pm ET
The final score hardly tells this story of this one. It was one of those unforgettable Boston sports nights. One of only 17 in the legendary history of the NBA's most successful franchise. Raise another to the rafters and hand out the jewelery. Here's what the players had to say about a night that had it all, and a Celtics come-from-behind win to boot.
Ray Allen said THIS was our moment.
Ray said the ring will speak for itself.
Paul Pierce said it was hard to hide the emotion of the evening.
Pierce on how hard it was to pull himself together.

Kevin Garnett on the ring ceremony.

|Celtics Entertain at Shamrock Foundation Gala
|10.25.08 at 10:46 am ET
Winning an NBA title is cause for celebration and on Friday night the Boston Celtics shared their excitement at the Shamrock Foundation's World Championship Gala. Members of the team held little back as they entertained the crowd with anecdotes, jokes, and even an operatic performance when emcee Glenn Ordway passed the mic to Paul Pierce. Highlights included:
- Eddie House gave his best Ray Allen impersonation while explaining the definition of 'Ubuntu.' Word is House doesn't need to practice that anymore … he does it so often it's like second nature by now.
- Big Baby shimmied across the stage doing his best take on KG's dance moves. If Davis' impression is any indication of the real thing, let's just say 'Dancing With the Stars' won't be calling Garnett any time soon.
- Pierce invited rookies J.R. Giddens and Bill Walker to the stage for a public display of rookie initiation. The two sang an off-key rendition of 'I Believe I Can Fly' which sounded more like Sanjaya than R. Kelly when Giddens tried to hit a high note.
When all was said and done, the gala raised $1.5 million to benefit the Celtics Shamrock Foundation, which provides education and support for charities in and around the Boston area.
The ornate 2008 World Championship rings were revealed and featured a diamond encrusted emerald shamrock. The big ticket auction item was a personalized championship ring, which went for $15,000.
Other auction items featured autographed memorabilia from the Boston Celtics and around the NBA, including celebratory photographs of the Big Three, an oversized cover of the Sporting News with Paul Pierce and David Ortiz, a basketball signed by members of the 2007-08 Celtics and Lakers squads, and a pair of sneakers worn by Dwight Howard. Guests were also able to bid on the opportunity to dine with the 2008 Championship trophy for the evening.
|Tables Still Available for 2008 World Championship Celebration Gala
|10.21.08 at 6:46 am ET
Tables are still available for the 2008 World Championship Celebration Gala to benefit the Boston Celtics Shamrock Foundation. The annual gala will be held this Friday, October 24 beginning at 6:00pm at the Renaissance Boston Waterfront Hotel.
This fundraising event raises money for an exceptional cause ' providing education and support for children in our community. All proceeds will go to benefit the Boston Celtics Shamrock Foundation.
This year's gala will feature the unveiling of the 2008 championship rings as well as a roundtable panel discussion with last season's starting five, moderated by WEEI's Glen Ordway.
Members of the Boston Celtics organization in attendance will include All-Stars Kevin Garnett, Paul Pierce and Ray Allen, members of the 2008-2009 Celtics team and coaching staff, Head Coach Doc Rivers, Executive Director of Basketball Operations and GM Danny Ainge, and Co-owners Wyc Grousbeck, Steve Pagliuca and Robert Epstein.
The gala will also feature once-in-a-lifetime auction items, including a 2008 World Championship Executive Level Ring, Two Gold Level Seats to the 51st Annual Grammy Awards, a 'Travel with the Team,' and more.
To purchase a table contact Rebekah Splaine at 617-854-8090.
|Celtics Lose, Cuts Loom
|10.17.08 at 7:47 pm ET
Final Score: Knicks 104 – Celtics 97
Eddie House rained threes but that wasn't enough to fend off the Knicks in the Celtics seven-point loss. House shot 7-for-11 from long range and finished the game with 27 points. Nate Robinson carried the Knicks with 19. A few postgame notes:
- According to Doc Rivers, Rajon Rondo (sprained ankle) could have returned to tonight's game. He left the young PG out, though, since "he knows how to play." Rondo is still uncertain for Sunday.
- Cuts are coming, and maybe sooner than expected. Doc Rivers said he wants to cut down his roster sooner rather than later to give player(s) a shot at being picked up being another team. He wants to learn more about three or four players before making his decision.
- Who does Kevin Garnett have the best chemistry with? It's not Paul Pierce. It's not Ray Allen either. KG said he has "the best chemistry by far" with Kendrick Perkins. Even though Perk missed the beginning of preseason play with a shoulder injury, Garnett claims the two bigs never missed a beat when he returned and were in constant communication tonight.
The Celtics will hold an open practice for a select group of ticket holders tomorrow in Lowell before taking on the New Jersey Nets on Sunday afternoon in the Garden.
|Miles Settling Into Boston
|10.12.08 at 10:19 pm ET
Darius Miles was anxious when he moved to Boston last month. He had played here before on opposing teams but it's a different story when you are representing Beantown. The city's winning tradition was intimidating at first.
'The last time I played there it wasn't really a big deal because the team was losing games,' Miles said. 'Like now just walking into the practice facility, it's like it's scary to a point because of the history that goes back on this team. Seeing all these pictures of Bill Russell and all these great players that used to play here and seeing those big banners, it's different now.'
Through his six-year stint in the NBA, Miles already knew many of the veteran Celtics including Kevin Garnett, Ray Allen, Paul Pierce, and Sam Cassell. Knowing these players also meant knowing the high expectations of winning another championship this season.
'I'm a basketball fan so I kind of knew a lot about [the Celtics tradition],' Miles said. 'Then once they brought a championship back, that kind of brought it all back to the world and everybody else and it kind of brought it back to my memory too. Like I said it got scary where I just don't want to mess up, don't want to miss a pass, drop the ball, miss a shot.'
After six weeks Miles has become more comfortable in his new digs. Doc Rivers has praised his hustle and he seems at ease in the Celtics locker room. Off the court, he has already staked claim of his new favorite restaurant, Biagio in Waltham.
'I like the family restaurants,' he said. 'They don't have too many name brand restaurants. There are a lot of family-owned restaurants around here, so the food tastes better and the people know how to cook.'
What else does Miles like about Boston?
'My favorite part is I like everybody's accent,' he said, adding, 'My mom came down here when I was sick (tonsillitis) and she was telling me she liked everybody's accents too.'
So will this Belleville, Illinois native be pahkin the cah any time soon?
'No, I don't think I'll pick one up,' Miles said with a laugh. 'I'm too country for that.'
|Battle Brewing in Manchester
|10.11.08 at 4:57 pm ET
Paul Pierce asked for the match up and he got it.
With just under 7:30 to go in the first quarter, Pierce drove the lane against Ron Artest. Artest welcomed him at the basket with a blow to the shoulder. No foul was called and the Rockets scored on the fastbreak. Artest pumped his chest as Eddie House and Kendrick Perkins rose to their feet on the Celtics bench to vocalize their disagreement with the no-call.
Moments later, Garnett blocked a Rockets shot that sent the crowd into a frenzy. The noise escalated when Artest dealt a hard foul to Ray Allen that sent the Celtics guard sliding into the front row.
Pierce has left the game with a bruised right shoulder but is expected to return.
All this tension and there is still five minutes to go in the first quarter.
|Pierce Hangin' Tough
|09.27.08 at 2:04 pm ET
No better way to proudly introduce one of our new contributors/bloggers at
WEEI.com than to show what she brings to the table.
Joey, Donnie, Jordan, Danny and Jonathan… That's right Jessica Camerato not only knows her world champion Boston Celtics and the NBA but also NKOTB.
Our Jess was loge and center for the New Kids on the Block return to Boston, which happened to take place in the same building as the Boston Celtics call home. No word on whether they made a return visit to the Celtics locker room, where Joey McIntyre and Donnie Wahlberg were helping KG, Paul Pierce and Jesus Shuttlesworth celebrate the championship on June 18.
And here's her maiden report/blog/entry:
On Friday night, Boston Celtics captain Paul Pierce made a surprise guest appearance with the Larry O'Brien trophy at the New Kids on the Block concert at the TD BankNorth Garden. Diehard Celtics fan/NKOTB front man Donnie Wahlberg gushed over the team's 17th title before Pierce emerged during their encore performance of "Hangin' Tough." The group donned Celtics jerseys as Pierce sauntered around the stage lifting the trophy and later jumped in a huddle similar to the Celtics pregame ritual. And word has it that Red Sox slugger David Ortiz has been asked to join the group with the World Series trophy at Sunday's concert in Boston.
See Jess knows how to bring it. Welcome, Jess and we look forward to more on Paul, KG, Ray and the rest of the gang starting on Monday as the Celtics prepare to open training camp in Newport, RI.

James Cameron's Dark Angel Xbox

- Critic Score
- Most active
- Publication
- Most clicked
Official Xbox MagazineNot only is this not very challenging, it's just plain boring after two or three levels. [Feb 2003, p.70]
The A.I. featured in the game is pretty much an utter embarrassment.
Unfortunately, the rather simple controls lack any sort of considerable depth that would keep the game interesting. In fact, most of the time, just hitting random buttons will pull off some pretty impressive punches, kicks, and flips.
Dynamic action elements careened downhill into a muddy bog of repetition, lack of vision and general malaise, leaving gamers with a dummed-down, half-baked game.
The unfulfilling combat system and poorly implemented stealth mode turn up the frustration factor to a level where even the most die-hard Alba fan will turn back to reruns rather than finish this game.
Suffers from unforgivable repetitive levels and strikes in the gameplay department that are hard to forget.
The manual actually lists such devastating moves as Punch, Punch, Punch. Or you can top that one with Punch, Punch, Punch, Punch. And even Punch, Punch, Punch, Punch, Punch. (I am not kidding, it's actually in the manual)
Xbox Nation Magazine[Cameron's] going to want to dump every copy of this interactive embarrassment bearing his name into a cold, harsh place that never sees the light of day. [Feb/Mar 2003, p.89]

It took Kristofer Helgen, curator of mammals at the Smithsonian's National Museum of Natural History, and his team on a journey from museum cabinets in Chicago to cloud forests in South America to discover and confirm the new species of olinguito (Bassaricyon neblina), which has been mistakenly identified for more than 100 years.

Minelab CTX 3030 finds Viking coin
Last year I found a coin that has turned out to be the best coin I've ever found. I was searching a river in Buckinghamshire England; working an area I'd previously searched every summer for 10 years. Finds had become very sparse, but in May 2012 I returned with my new CTX 3030 and I immediately saw "the site come to life!"
I started to work the inside bend of a bank that had previously produced several large first century Roman coins to a Minelab Excalibur 800. The first target of note was a lovely tin coin of James II, which has a copper plug fig1. This was in remarkable condition, and the date (1685) can still be read on the outside edge of the coin. I was so pleased to find this coin, they are rarely found in this condition.
Finding small gold jewelry on the beach with the Minelab CTX 3030
I can boldly say the CTX 3030 is the most sensitive metal detector I have ever used for gold jewelry hunting on the beach and this awesome metal detector has changed my approach to finding smaller items of gold jewelry on the beach.
Maximizing your area - Part 2
Even if you are not the talking type, there are so many other ways to get to the goodies. One is slower, but can really be helpful, and that is the library. Looking at old newspapers can tell of stories forgotten only a few weeks after they were written. Most small town papers kept all of the local stories worthy to research on the front page, with the rest of the paper open to National news or advertisements.
Those little ones add up
There's been a real buzz around the world lately with the discovery of a monster gold nugget in Victoria's Golden Triangle; it never ceases to amaze me the amount of large nugget finds that keep coming out from the richest, but also the most detected dirt on the planet!
Maximizing your area - Part 1
Being successful at metal detecting can be a direct result of the area that you hunt, but it doesn't have to dictate how successful you can be. Whether you live in area known for Civil War relics, a highly occupied area where numerous coins are found, or rivers where gold is commonly found, the ability to maximize that area is what makes some hunters successful while others are not.
Evan Granger - Introduction to Treasure Talk
I'd like to introduce Evan Granger as our newest member to Minelab's Treasure Talk blog. Evan has been detecting since he was 12. Accompanied by his father and mentor, his first major find was a Mason jar cache of Morgan Dollars and other coins left in a post-hole bank. After that, he was hooked and has been metal detecting for over 28 years.
Evan has experience with several types of metal detectors and enjoys using new technology. His ability to quickly pick up a metal detector and understand it has been a key factor to his success. He loves the aspect of recovering and saving lost history.
CTX 3030 Seawater setting
The CTX 3030 Beach mode and Seawater setting is a really good combination of options for a shallow water hunter that likes to work the trough or first drop off in the water. This is the area in the water where sands are constantly shifting and waves roll up onto the beach, it is also the area that makes the CTX 3030 such an effective gold jewelry hunter.
Detecting in the Sixteen to One Mine - Part 2
One might think that within not too long a period a person could run his metal detector over every inch of ground inside a mine. However because the Original Sixteen to One is a combination of a number of old mines and the property has been worked on a more or less continuous basis for well over 100 years, there are literally miles of old underground workings to explore and one could spend a lot of time going over every bit of the vein that was exposed in the walls of the old workings.
Detecting in the Sixteen to One Mine - Part 1
Earlier this year I was given a very special opportunity to take my metal detector to one of the most famous underground gold mines in all of California, the original Sixteen to One Mine in the heart of the mother lode country at Allegheny. I was asked to give a little demonstration and talk about metal detecting technology, how it has changed and improved and to do some field testing of different types of detectors inside the mine.
Alaskan gold - Part 2
The prospecting potential of the mining district where I visited included metal detecting for nuggets, but because there was plenty of water, the possibilities also included sluicing or high banking as well as suction dredging. The ground here was suitable for both pulse induction as well as VLF machines, most being fairly low mineralization, with some smaller areas strongly mineralized because of different underlying rocks. I brought both types of detector technology with me, as I wanted to be fully prepared. Although some larger nuggets have been found here, most of the gold is less than a half gram in weight. The gold deposits were well washed with nearly all the gold found within just the first few inches on top of bedrock. I spent considerable time detecting the bedrock on the bench areas above the creek that the miners had worked by hydraulic methods decades ago.

U.S. growth anything but weak
According to the latest revised growth data, first-quarter U.S. GDP growth was -0.2%, which, although weak, was better than previously forecasted. In addition, consumption data rebounded in recent weeks, alleviating concerns that first-quarter weakness was sending a troubling message about underlying economic fundamentals. Based on current estimates of U.S. growth, GDP has moved above a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 3%, a pace we believe is sustainable for the remainder of 2015.
Of course, this outlook may face headwinds if the U.S. dollar resumes its upward trajectory, which could happen as a result of a deeper China slowdown or an adverse outcome for Greece and the eurozone. Although the latter is still possible, its likelihood decreased after the July 13 announcement of the agreement between Greece and the European Commission (EC), European Central Bank (ECB), and International Monetary Fund (IMF).
Overall, the underlying strength in the U.S. economy gives us reason for optimism, as the pace of job creation is decent, and wage gains may push inflation toward the Fed's target of 2%. Although a less robust June labor report reduced the probability the Fed will hike rates in September, we believe it would take a drastic deterioration in economic prospects to cause the Fed to wait until 2016. We believe that an improving labor market, momentum in wage growth, and stable dollar strength are likely to lead to a rate hike later this year.
Greek denouement
Even amidst the strengthening U.S. economy, the debt crisis in Greece dominated headlines during the second quarter. This contributed broadly to investor risk aversion, pushing spreads wider across most fixed-income sectors.
Although Prime Minister Tsipras struck an agreement with the EC and ECB for a third bailout fund, he now faces political hurdles to navigate a gradual recovery for the Greek economy. A continuation of austerity policies, which include pension reform and further taxation, may pose a challenge for Tsipras and his Syriza party.
The troubled path to achieve agreement with creditors created fractures in the eurozone itself, sending tremors through the monetary union that still appears to be contingent on domestic political developments. The implication for the future is that riskier sovereign bonds in the eurozone may require higher risk premiums.
Why do Chinese policymakers care so much about stocks?
News about Greece nearly overshadowed events in China. In June, China's central bank implemented another cut in interest rates and reduced the reserve ratio requirement for banks. We think this is a sign that Chinese policymakers are not seeing the improvement in economic growth that they expected, given the level of monetary stimulus they provided over the past 12 to 18 months. The easing policy was also meant to arrest the steep decline in Chinese stocks that began in mid-June.
Given that the stock market losses are not as impactful to the economy — only a relatively small number of people in China own stocks — it raises concerns about Chinese policymakers' intense interest in stocks. The government's initial concern was likely to minimize the risk to consumer confidence and to mitigate the potential for popular discontent as a result of the rapid market decline. However, after placing such an emphasis on the stock market, we think the government risks becoming hostage to it.
From an economic perspective, China dwarfs Greece on a GDP level. Although we don't believe China's economy will suffer a substantial slowdown, such a scenario would have far greater implications for global markets than a reprise of the Greek drama or even a potential "Grexit."
Fixed-income asset class views
Generally speaking, we were positioned for a rising interest-rate environment in the second quarter, which was a strategy that worked well across a variety of our fixed-income portfolios. Specifically, we kept duration — a key measure of interest-rate sensitivity — shorter than that of the Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index, meaning many of our portfolios were comparatively less sensitive to rate fluctuations. This positioning yielded positive results as rates rose in May and June.
As we discuss in this section, a number of fixed-income asset types continued to make gains in the second quarter, though performance was choppy at times. Risk-averse investor behaviors promoted higher short-term correlations between typically uncorrelated asset classes, such as commercial mortgage-backed securities (CMBS) relative to high-yield and investment-grade corporate bonds. Against the backdrop of what we consider to be the inevitable approach of higher rates, we remain optimistic about non-interest-rate forms of fixed-income risk, including prepayment, credit, and liquidity risks.
Securitized debt: Broadly positive results
Our prepayment strategies, which we implemented with securities such as agency interest-only collateralized mortgage obligations [IO CMOs] performed well in the second quarter. As interest rates moved higher in May and June, mortgage refinancing became less attractive, resulting in slower prepayment speeds.
Our mortgage credit investments, specifically positions in subordinated mezzanine CMBS and non-agency residential mortgage-backed securities [RMBS], also performed relatively well. Mezzanine CMBS benefited from improving commercial real estate fundamentals, along with persistent investor demand for higher-yielding bonds. Non-agency RMBS were helped by strong supply-and-demand dynamics. The universe of investable securities continued to shrink, but their values were supported by consistent investor demand, benefiting our holdings of pay-option adjustable-rate mortgages (ARMs).
Investment-grade bonds: Continued stability
Corporate fundamentals are still solid. Investment grade corporate balance sheets and profit growth may have peaked but there does not seem to be a major deterioration in credit. Leverage within investment-grade corporates as a whole is rising, but it is mostly increasing at higher-quality companies and in specific sectors. June supply was lighter than previous months as some deals may have been delayed in the face of Greek volatility. Spreads widened by 12 basis points during the month to end at 145. The team believes that spreads can compress in 2015 given the solid underlying credit fundamentals, but global economic concerns, falling oil, geopolitical headlines, and/or volatile and rising U.S. Treasury rates may drive spreads wider in the near term.
In addition, unlike other areas of the fixed-income markets, such as high-yield and emerging-market debt, investment-grade bonds were not as susceptible to the risks posed by weak oil prices, and should continue to weather any reappearance of weakness in the commodity price cycle.
High yield and bank loans: Improved fundamentals
High-yield bonds delivered positive performance for the quarter, despite headwinds in June. The asset class rallied strongly in April and early May as rising oil prices reduced the pressure on energy companies that were at the greatest risk of defaulting when prices were lower. Recently, technicals have suffered. However, we continue to be constructive on high-yield corporate credit, where we see improving fundamentals, a continued low default rate, and, most importantly, the ongoing solid backdrop of the U.S. economic expansion.
In the bank-loan market, renewed investor demand for higher-yielding securities amid lower bond yields globally, exacerbated by a light supply of loans, bolstered the asset class in April and May. Loans also benefited from moderating retail fund outflows and continued robust demand from collateralized loan obligations — structured investment vehicles in which loans are pooled to create a diversified income stream. In June, bank loans suffered their first negative monthly performance in 2015 amid increased global volatility, but held up better than most other asset classes.
We think the economic backdrop should be generally supportive for the asset class. Regulators have begun to focus more intently on the quality of new loans, particularly the amount of leverage relative to an issuer's cash flow within each loan. In our view, these efforts are likely to improve the quality of newly issued loans.
Additionally, if interest rates were to rise meaningfully in the second half of 2015, the asset class would likely benefit from renewed retail investor demand since bank-loan coupons — their stated interest rates — may begin to adjust higher.
Emerging markets: Outflows continue
While emerging markets endured the challenging condition of capital outflows, emerging-market debt (EMD) registered positive absolute returns during the quarter, outperforming a variety of fixed-income asset types. Higher interest rates in developed markets — and expectations for more of the same — led many investors to reallocate their assets away from emerging markets, which warrants caution in the months ahead.
Broadly considered, higher interest rates can be a challenge for any fixed-income market. But when advanced economies see their interest rates rise, capital tends to flow in, in pursuit of higher yields with lower perceived risks. That dynamic began to play out during the second quarter as the U.S. economy continued to improve and the U.S. Federal Reserve began to prepare markets for an increase in the federal funds rate.
Of the various types of EM investments, stocks bore the brunt of the adverse effects from the capital reallocation, though local debt, dollar-denominated debt, and EM currencies all experienced weakness. Having said that, EM government debt performed better than U.S. Treasuries, while EM corporate debt wound up in positive territory as bond spreads in this sector tightened and the securities gained in value. Oil prices did appear to find more solid footing, as did copper prices, which gave a number of commodity exporters more flexibility in terms of making debt repayments.
The rebound in the price of oil particularly helped big oil producers such as Russia — where asset markets have recently performed well despite continued Western sanctions — and Venezuela, both of which had suffered economically from oil's dramatic price slide beginning in mid-2014. Our position in Russian government debt, as well as our position in quasi-sovereign Russian debt, including debt issued by government-run banks and energy companies, performed well.
More broadly, throughout the current commodity price cycle, we believe that EM countries and companies have kept their credit profiles in decent shape. A useful comparison in this regard is the economic environment in the United States during the financial crisis of 2008. In the wake of that event, the U.S. economy slowed fairly dramatically, and in fact it still has not grown consistently since that time. But since then, the U.S. corporate sector has become much stronger in terms of building cash balances and expanding operating margins — and all of this has happened in the absence of consistently robust growth. We have observed similar dynamics with respect to EM corporates, and we note the resilience of many companies in this segment of EMD during the period.
Overall, we are cautious about the broad prospects for EMD in the near term. High-yield markets struggled near the end of the period as Treasuries rose, and that may be a harbinger of difficulty for EMD insofar as it represents a segment of the global credit market. We believe that investors should be prepared for some volatility in the EMD asset class, which could be amplified by continued capital reallocation as the global interest-rate picture changes.
Municipal bonds: Volatility picks up
Municipal bonds encountered increased volatility during the second quarter amid uncertainty about the Fed's timetable for expected rate increases and some well-publicized news of cities and states facing inadequate pension-funding liabilities. The asset class returned -0.89%, as measured by the Barclays Municipal Bond Index, but outperformed Treasuries despite some outflows from the asset class. Credit spreads (the difference in yield between higher- and lower-quality municipal bonds) widened somewhat during the quarter but still remained fairly tight — reflecting the generally improving economic backdrop.
Technicals in the tax-exempt market were fairly stable in the first half of 2015. Supply has been relatively heavy — almost 50% higher than in the first half of 2014. The bulk of new issuance has been for refunding, or refinancing, activity as municipal issuers took advantage of the low-interest-rate environment to replace their older, higher-coupon bonds with lower-cost debt. So the supply side is still robust despite some hesitancy on the part of state and local governments to issue new bonds, as they turn their attention toward funding employee pensions and other fixed costs in their budgets. On the other hand, demand has been fairly decent. That said, the municipal bond market did begin to experience outflows in May and June as a timeline for Fed action on a rate hike came into clearer focus.
Given expectations for a Fed rate increase, economic trends in the broader U.S. economy, and technicals in the municipal marketplace, we continue to manage tax-exempt portfolios with a defensive bias. Along with recent outflows from municipal bond funds, as well as negative headlines associated with Puerto Rico, Chicago, and Illinois, we are positioned for modestly higher rates going forward.
That said, we continue to see pockets of investment opportunity, particularly in the essential-service revenue sectors, such as higher education, health care, transportation, and utilities. The portfolios have a little less duration sensitivity than their Lipper peer groups. We accomplish this posture in part by holding a slightly higher cash position to help shelter the portfolios from price pressures while also providing some liquidity to act swiftly should timely investment opportunities present themselves. Given our longevity in the business and our experience through many market cycles, we have learned that there still are opportunities to invest during a rising-rate environment. Markets can become disjointed and create opportunities to buy bonds at attractive spreads, as nervous investors react to the headlines rather than fundamentals.
Currency: Though less ascendant, the dollar still holds advantages
Within active currency strategies, our U.S. dollar position is a more modest overweight. The pillars for U.S. dollar strength are based upon relative growth outperformance and the subsequent implications for attractiveness of U.S. assets and relative monetary policy. The U.S. growth story has stabilized at more moderate levels, but on a relative basis it is not the standout leader as other major economies have seen improvement as well. The United States is regaining equity-market leadership, and it remains an attractive destination for fixed-income capital with the Bank of Japan (BoJ) and the European Central Bank (ECB) actively purchasing local government debt.
While maintaining this long-term view on the dollar, we note that the euro has some short-term advantages. Growth in the eurozone has stabilized at modest levels. The ECB policy remains easy. The current situation in Greece remains fluid and provides a great deal of volatility for the single currency. A more benign outcome (which is our base case) in which Greece agrees to additional austerity measures and receives a new financial assistance program from creditors should see the single currency move higher in the short run. A Greek exit would likely cause quite a bit of financial market volatility and would require the official sector, particularly the ECB, to ensure the monetary policy transmission channel remains functional through even more extensive purchases of sovereign debt (on top of its current quantitative-easing program), which should see the single currency drop precipitously.
While still at a disadvantage versus the dollar, the British pound sterling benefits in the near term from U.K. growth levels remaining solid. Although inflation and inflation expectations have come down considerably, they appear to have reached a trough. Additionally, the labor market data is showing signs of wage pressure, and the hawks on the Bank of England Monetary Policy Committee could start to voice the need for rate hikes in coming meetings.
Regarding the Japanese yen, we still favor a modest short. BoJ Governor Kuroda continues to highlight that the BoJ does not have any intention to ease the policy near term given the current economic and price conditions, explaining that the decline in core CPI (consumer price index) inflation is temporary and could be reversed in line with oil price developments. Most importantly, Kuroda stresses that the BoJ will not hesitate to adjust the policy if fundamental price trends change and if the early achievement of the inflation target is found to be difficult. This very easy policy (and expectations that more will be needed) coupled with the Fed lifting rates sooner and faster than the market expects should continue to keep pressure on the yen.

According to NewUrbanism.org, new urbanism "promotes the creation and restoration of diverse, walkable, compact, vibrant, mixed-use communities composed of the same components as conventional development, but assembled in a more integrated fashion, in the form of complete communities."
Perhaps no one has championed the benefits of New Urbanist construction like architect Sarah Susanka, author of the best-selling Not So Big book series that celebrates the smaller, more practical home without compromising quality.
This week marks the grand opening of Susanka's Not So Big Showhouse in Libertyville, Ill., a northern suburb of Chicago. The 2,500-square-foot house emphasizes functionality and multipurpose spaces. For instance, there's no formal dining room. (Who actually uses them anyway?) There's a large front porch before floor-to-ceiling windows that overlook the neighborhood. There are no cathedral ceilings to be found and energy efficiency is a top consideration. There is no excess to be found — every room has its role.
The house also includes the special Marvin window Susanka designed as part of the myMarvin Artist Project.
Susanka's Not So Big Showhouse is a part of the SchoolStreet housing development in downtown Libertyville, a new urbanist neighborhood that promotes a strong sense of community. So much so that most of the homes feature kitchens positioned toward the front of the house, inviting homeowners to eat and socialize on the front porch rather than be secluded in the back.
On Thursday, Susanka will appear at Libertyville High School to present her home, answer questions and sign books. On Saturday, Susanka's Not So Big Showhouse will be open from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. The house is located at 138 School Street in Libertyville.

Singer sings "Lift Every Voice," also known as the black national anthem instead of national anthem..appropriate or not?
nope. she wasn't there to "express herself artistically" she was there to sing the National Anthem. Unlike an official language, we do have an official anthem and that was what she was contracted to do.
Had they said, "we'd like you to sing before the speech, please use your discretion, as this is going to be on public tv, and we need to adhere to FCC standards" she would have been completely free to sing whatever she wanted.
The analogy for me, would be someone asked to do a reading at a wedding, and instead of reading teh Emily Bronte poem the bride picked out, they read a poem from Maya Angelou. Still beautiful, and fitting to the occassion, but not what they were asked to do.
Since I needed to change my signature, come check out the PTA Group!
Whether or not it was appropriate, she made her point. Artists thrive on controversy, especially those without significant name recognition.
How do you solve a problem like Maria?
Wow! Appropriate or not, I loved it! Beautiful!

Mom to 3 girls, who are 19, 17 and 8.
There is nothing "pro-life" about wanting abortion to be illegal.
I don't think that her intentions were bad, or even what she did was bad. However, I do disagree with her statement here:
"An artist does not ask permission to express themselves artistically," Marie said. "You just do it and then you deal with it."
I think that actually it would have been appropriate for her to ask permission or make sure that it was okay. Her reasoning behind her actions is not malicious, so why not make sure that others understood that before she did it. Then - like others in the article said, maybe she could have done BOTH versions so that others would not have gotten offended.
I just totally disagree with the "Just do it - then deal with it" mentality - I think that THAT'S innapropriate and disrespectful. Almost like you're saying "I know I will offend - but oh well, I'll just deal with it later." Disrespectful.
ALYSSA mom to A, B & C !!
Here is the problem I have with doing that. You want to sing a song OTHER than the National Anthem that no doubt is very uplifting and strong? Great. But don't do it when someone asks you to sing the National Anthem and EXPECTS the National Anthem. Sing it after. Sing it before. At least let the people KNOW you are singing something else, they asked you to do it for a reason. I think she owed them the respect of letting them know her plans.
I am very loyal to this country and there are just certain things that need to be respected, and the anthem is one of them. Her artistic expression, while beautiful, was a bit disrespectful, in my opinion. And to me, this has no race issue at all, I would feel this way if a white woman did it as well. Or even if a celebrity singer did it.

How does the saying go? .... *it's easier to ask for forgiveness than permission*
No harm was really done.
I think it's a tad disrespectful since she was there to sing the national anthem. But like others said she is getting good press now, so she's no dummy
it's my cat's birthday
I have no problem with her song choice, however, it is a tad dispectful to alter a program without prior approval.

IMO I thought it was beautiful...BUT
Was she paid for her services? If she was, then she was in the wrong. If you were paid to do a job, and your services weren't as advertised, then there is a problem. If she felt uneasy singing it, she should have declined their offer. I understand artistic vision, but that was surely an inappropriate place to express it.
That said, if they asked her to be a guest singer, song choices were not discussed, or she wasn't paid for her services... I don't see a problem with it.

Growing in Illinois
Review by Joe

Product Rating:
I have purchased some Tetnang rysones from Midwest. In the harsh Illinois winter they survived..One thing for sure when they mentioned that the rysones are evasive believe it. After one year they are popping up everywhere.The first year I managed to get close to 5 oz from 2 plants.
Fresh product.
Review by John L.
(Posted on 4/7/13)
I received my rhizome faster than I was expecting, it arrived still moist and with plenty of white "eyes." Looking forward to plenty of fresh hops, for years to come.
Fast and in great shape.
Review by Nat
(Posted on 4/4/13)
My rhizomes just arrived and they look great! I've tried growing them with rhizomes handed over from a fellow brewer, but these look way better. I haven't planted them yet, but will update when I have more information. Shipping was so fast, and the service was great.
Looking good,eh,Chico?
Review by Carl
(Posted on 4/2/13)
First,kudos to MWS and USPS,for their quick and courteous service in handling my back-ordered rhizomes,once MidWest Supplies had received the inventory and immediately shipped the product. According to the time stamps;I received my rhizomes within 48 hrs:over a weekend. Over a Federal Holiday.
Second,I ordered 4 sets of four each of different hop rhizomes. All 16 Rhizomes were of high quality,viable and well-moistened. All had either sprouts or root buds present. All are planted and heeled-in.
Lastly,I own and operate a small single-family farm and orchard. We're located in Florida's,"Panhandle." Most of my neighbors are farmers. I know and understand what quality product is;what market values and forces are and also what price the market will bear. As far as I'm concerned; this product meets or exceeds the market points formerly described above. Time can only be the judge as to performance of product;as per future review.
Cascades are strong growers
Review by Michael
Received these as a birthday gift. They look pretty sad when you get them, just a twig with a couple buds sticking out. We planted the 2 rhizomes pretty shallowly but covered them with rich mushroom compost. They grew really well the first year, producing almost 5 dry ounces each. We watered regularly and had them grow on a leaning trellis with good air circulation. I think it's important to train them to grow up and out and also to cull vines, selecting only a few for each root segment.
Arrived in Great Shape
Review by Sara
I ordered two of the Cascade Hop Rhizomes and the arrived quickly and they look healthy with no damage. Can't wait to put them in the ground and watch them take off!
Grow your own
Review by Judd

Root looks good. Going in the ground soon. Great to use your own fresh hops!
a game of chance
Review by 612hophead
(Posted on 3/27/13)
I bought 3 rhizomes last year and had them set for store pickup as I am local and to avoid the shipping. Although I had received a confirmation email that my rhizomes had arrived, when I showed up to pick them up, they only had part of my order because they had sent the rest out of the shipment for mail orders. Understandable, I suppose, but I had taken time out of my day to drive there specifically to pick them up. They said they would receive another shipment in a few days. So I returned in a few days to pick up my rhizomes. When I received them, they were the last ones available and were some of the most sickly looking rhizomes I've ever seen. None of them made it through the spring. I have purchased other rhizomes from Midwest and they've been fine, but based off this last experience I will be purchasing my rhizomes from another local company that I've had better success with.
A lot for a root
Review by Martin
(Posted on 3/7/13)
I have two of these growing in Mn. Got about 4 ounces from two plants, but I think the price for a piece of root should be a little lower.

One dead, one critical in downtown Salt Lake City crash
One person was killed and another critically injured in a two-car crash Friday morning on or near the Interstate 15 exit into downtown Salt Lake City.
Salt Lake City police Det. Veronica Montoya said the accident occurred at 5:21 a.m. on 600 South near West Temple when a pickup truck and a sedan collided. The man driving the sedan was dead at the scene, while a male passenger was critically injured.
The pickup truck's driver sustained minor injuries and refused transport to the hospital.
Montoya said further details including the names and ages of the victims, and whether the sedan or pickup may have run a red light were not immediately available.
Motorists were advised to avoid the area of the freeway from the 600 South to 900 South exits, instead taking the 600 North or 1300 South I-15 exits.
It took more than six hours for the wreckage to be cleared and investigation completed, allowing traffic flow to resume through the area.

Together, We Create Possibilities
For most of us, having a sense of purpose, responsibility and freedom sets the foundation for how we interact with the world. But to a person living with mental illness, these are significant achievements that take them one step closer to independence; achievements that create lasting friendships and meaningful opportunities.
Gateway offers a world of opportunities for adults with mental illness – to live, work, and function as independently as possible. We believe each member has a contribution to make, regardless of his or her level of disability. Together, we help those in need face challenges, build confidence, and gain acceptance.

Has anyone's LO had a diagnosed casein allergy by an allergist via skin testing with a link to eczema? This happened with my 8 mo. old DD and was it was hypothesized that it may cause her eczema? If so, what did you do? Did you go the soy route or Alimentum?
My DD has had mild eczema since 3 months old, where we have treated her with 2.5% hydrocortisone cream, starting at 6 months...not everyday. We hate applying it to her but we try to keep it in check...as minimal as needed.
Allergist wants us to use soy or hypoallergenic formula. I have concerns with soy and as per the allergist she may hate the Alimentum. Meanwhile, dermatologists and pediatricians in the past told us that even if she was allergic to milk, her ezcema is so mild.
I feel like I am in a catch 22. Not comfortable with soy and the Alimentum route may be difficult. Any one in this situation or have any experience? Thx....confusing...sorry.

What remains, scraps of time,
some scraps of mine.
There is silence in the hot afternoon,
a still bubble of heat outside,
the motionless pines, inert branches
except for some random sirocco gust,
the dry grass singing, cicadas searing the grass
and sandbar fever on the skin,
by the slow, perennial, marshy green.
Scraps of time.
I rummage the cupboard and find them
in boxes, albums, envelopes,
inside magazines, even in an old wallet,
the leather worn out to a shine,
with the consistence of linen, almost a gauze,
scraps of time that consume and leave you
staring at slivers of light, staring for the soul
or the breath of all burnt gold, the ore-
I start looking at them, time's scraps,
these pictures of bygone, bypassed existence
of various shapes and consistence,
these faces recurring, a century ago,
the black and white that looks
both essential and elemental
and rich, expectant in a way,
young cheekbones, at their prime,
enthusiast of being there
in their own living rhyme,
with in front what we believe they believed,
a neat plain, a spread of time,
with these wide, thorough smiles
in the present cicadas' light now,
light of silence in which I keep looking
and find a few, more recent, colour,
here, me and her, I had forgotten these,
probably never seen them before,
and I forget the others at once, I stare
at the simple drama of what
was there and is no more,
I look in her smile for what
I want to last anyway,
I look and look
and sink in the armchair
and sink in the sky.
