Share Share Share Story by UTV Staff, Belfast The warning comes after a treacherous morning on the roads in Northern Ireland on Monday.Police said they dealt with 42 incidents between 6am and 9am across the region.The NI Ambulance Service (NIAS) reported attending the scene of 15 road traffic collisions, one of which was fatal, during the same time period.NIAS spokesman John McPoland told UTV: "Our crews dealt with incidents in Derry, Belfast, Craigavon, Lurgan, Armagh, Killyleagh and Downpatrick - they were everywhere."It was an exceptional three hours for us. Normally, in the space of a day, we would expect to deal with maybe 12 or 13 road traffic collisions, so this was a big morning for us."Both the police and the ambulance service said that the incidents could not be specifically linked directly to the cold weather conditions.However, black ice is thought to have played a part in the morning's disruption.During the morning, police urged motorists to exercise caution on roads which were said to be "extremely treacherous" in places.The Lurgan and Craigavon areas were reported to be among the worst affected, but black ice was also reported in Armagh, Portadown and Newry.NIAS attended 15 RTC's between 6 and 9 this morning incl one fatal. Drivers should be careful, pay attention, wear seatbelt and don't speed— NIAS (@NI_Amb_Service) January 13, 2014Police reminded motorists that they should stay at a safe distance behind other vehicles and reduce their speed.According to a Roads Service spokesperson, there was no evidence of frost in the Southern Division at about 3am on Monday morning and temperatures were well above freezing."An un-forecast dip in temperatures occurred at around 5-6am in areas of Southern Division, which caused road temperatures to fall below freezing, resulting in the formation of frost and ice on some roads," the spokesperson continued."This was compounded by isolated showers which occurred across the area, falling on road surfaces which were close to freezing."On becoming aware of the change in road conditions, Roads Service carried out gritting operations in Southern Division from 7am onwards on the parts of the salted network which had been affected."The warning for further icy conditions will be in place from 5pm on Monday until 10am on Tuesday.According to the Met Office, road temperatures will fall below freezing overnight, allowing icy stretches to form on untreated surfaces.Some travel disruption will be likely and may affect Tuesday morning's rush hour traffic. © UTV Share Share Share

Has The Euro/SPOO Correlation Broken Down, Or Is Long EURUSD The ABX Trade Of 2012?
In his latest note, Jefferies' David Zervos observes something that has been troubling us for the past few weeks as well: namely, whether the relentless plunge in the EURUSD, now down nearly 600 pips from when we said the next EURUSD target could be 1.20, coupled with a far tamer drop in various US equity risk indicators, such as the S&P, means that the EURUSD/SPOO correlation, so well known to most traders, has finally broken down. We doubt it.
What we suggest is that this express elevator to EUR hell, is merely an overreaction on the part of overzealous ultra short-term specs who have been burned so many times shorting equities following central bank intervention, that the only venue left to express bearishness is in the FX realm now that everyone is doing it. Indeed, the most recent CFTC number showing an absolute record of non-commercial EUR spec shorts confirms that it is not a long-term trend, but rather short-term speculators that has pushed the EUR disproportionately lower than where it should be relative to broader risk metrics. Because while equity markets are now obviously pricing in more easing on the part of either the Fed or the ECB, FX continues shorting the only one-way trade that, like a broken ATM machine, prints money day after day. Needless to say, the pain trade will be any appeasing announcement from Europe. At that point we are quite convinced that courtesy of the record number of EUR shorts, which will scramble like manic clown to scramble out of a burning circus all at the same time, any gap in the EURUSD/SPOO arb will be closed momentarily, with a huge overshoot to the upside on any even remotely credible EUR positive news.
Here is what Zervos thinks:
A new Euro/Spoo correlation coming?
One of the many bright trade ideas to start the year was long spoos/short EURUSD. The idea was quite compelling in that the only thing that could truly derail a Bernanke induced spoo rally would be big trouble across the pond - and hence big trouble for the EURO.
And to be sure, the EURO did rally in the beginning of 2012 (from 1.30 to 1.34) as the LTROs took European woes out of the limelight. Of course spoos ripped higher at the same time, and the EURO "hedge" only cost a few percentage points of the double digit risk on rally.
Then, as the European stress began to re-emerge towards the late spring, both the Euro and spoo took a dive. If you shorted 100m EURUSD at the beginning of 2012 and bought 100m spoos, it certainly generated a less volatile, more appealing risk adjusted return trade than just a naked long spoo position. The "hedge" worked nicely in times of stress and didn't cost too much in times of relief. That said, I would still maintain that a long blues position has been a better risk/reward hedge for the spoo. And of course, spoos + blues sounds a lot cooler!
In any case, something smells a little different in the last week or so - the spoo/EURO correlation seems to be breaking down. While spoos have bounced 3 percent off the lows (and are still up almost 6 percent for the year), the EURUSD is on its knees, at the lows of the year (down 4 percent YTD). On the downside, the correlation seems intact. For example, as we watch the market respond to grim news out of the Euroarea this morning - with the Germans admonishing the Spainish on Bankia and proposing gold collateral for Eurobond issuance - the spoo and EURUSD both moved lower. But on the upside in recent sessions, when there is broad discussion of a Eurobond, ESM bond issuance, Euro deposit insurance or ECB backstopping, the spoo heads higher with no meaningful bounce in the EURO.
I would argue that there seems to be a growing recognition amongst longer term investors that the "socialized, federalized and stabilzed" solution to Euro area problems is now being seen "correctly" as EURO negative. But at the same time this solution is fantastic news for global risk assets. Once Europe backstops, federalizes and socializes we can all breath a collective sigh of relief (unless you are a thrifty German saver, in that case you can just start drinking heavily). Importantly, this kneejerk idea that any policies to stabilize Europe will be EURO positive is fading fast - thankfully.
Umm, no. The reason why the "correlation has broken down" for the time being, is that specs have piled in on the EUR short trade, while not daring to get burned when the banks announce something, anything, as can be seen on the chart below, which shows net non-commercial EUR shorts at all time highs, while the E-Mini bearish spec position remaining very tame by comparison.
Intuitively, when the regime changes, one can bet that the EUR short covering action will be unlike anything seen before. Actually, make that like something seen before: below is a chart showing the nearly 400 pip move in seconds when the expanded QE1 was announced on March 18, 2009.
Add to this a record number of shorts, and being LONG EURUSD (potentially with an offseting SPOO short for a less balance sheet intensive pair trade) which will easily rip 400-500 pips in the current record EUR short environment, could well be the ABX trade of 2012 for some lucky trader.
There is just the minor matter of timing...
- advertisements -
Say what?
It's bullish!
Edit: I read it as the record amounts of shorts combined with the chance of central bank intervention could unleash one hell fo a short squeeze up.More of the same for us bears it seems.
I'll take: How to keep people from shorting the SPX while its collapses, for $1 trillion, Tyler.
Nah, the more shorts the better. The goal is a lower footing and better public justification for the next big print. Oil should be around $80 or so and the S&P at say 1100, which at this rate should be around the next FOMC meeting. At that point, remaining longs will be in terrible pain(or smart money) and the loads of shorts will be the fire that gets the rip going. Just look at anything from March 09 to 10 or Oct 10 to May 11. This shit is getting old..
The problem with any trade right now is event risk. The Euro may get to 99% bears before a reversal is in the cards.
Actually, if you're looking for a scenario that sends gold to $2000+, wouldn't a simultaneous downdraft in the value of the dollar and the value of US risk assets be the formula?
The ZH counter-hypothesis here seems to be that both the S&P and the DYX are set for a sharp move lower, a pair of moves that have not shown high correlations in the past. Rather, the pattern was to move between debt and equity based on the relative values -- but if both fall simultaneously, where's the safety move?
"Bumps" in the road on this downhill slope. Nothing more. We will continue to "beat expectations" all the way down.
This too shall pass.
Just don't have the entire pit gather around chanting "Drop! Drop! Drop!"
Once Europe backstops, federalizes and socializes we can all breath a collective sigh of relief
What an utter, utter piffle.
Anyone want to tell us how this federalization comes about? Anyone. The panic isn't anywhere close enough for that. Then the stickiest issue, who will they get to lead this federalized EU? Stick this idea in the to-be-used-later folder. With the mix of record shorts and nasty news this is going to be quite the roller coaster ride.
Euro should feel more pain tomorrow, isn't Cyprus an inch away from asking for a bailout?
If ifs were 5ths we'd all be drunk. A matter of timing.
You'd have to have inside info to get the timing right. Someone will have it and get it right. And, then someone else can catch them and arrest them and so on.
anyone know where I can get a eurusd 0.99 hat? As central planners bankers go, Draghi doesn't have enough facial hair to save the euro.
this is awesome tyler
i'm gonna get my bong and smoke this and then come back and see what's perkin beside my chart-porn gherkin
edit 14:21 post: faaaar0wwt,mayaaan...
well timing isn't everything; it's the only thing at this point; and the chairsatan & his faustian minions are holding the baton and cuing the oboes and the snares in the traps
just for the zH of it i here's where i went to look at a few more charts: Commodity Futures Charts & Futures Quotes Menu
then, instead of the EUR, i took a peek at the U$Dollar after a quick review of the weekly cots report US Dollar Index Monthly Commodity Futures Price Chart where the monthly has that dojo werkin like a gherkin! [and, nice rise since the 73 range last year: beaucoup%] but let's pull these numbers :
- USD vol: 563,763
- USDopen interest: 50,999
here the EUR 5-yr monthy chart [dojo down]: Euro (Globex) Monthly Commodity Futures Price Chart
- EUR vol: 6,392,197
the S&P500 gapped down friday S&P 500 Daily Commodity Futures Price Chart: June 2012 [the mini did not!]
i think we'll see the correction VERY soon and it will be as tyler envisions here, only much less so than in the 2009 nessie4.0; this ain't '09 any more
why? b/c daBoyz mentioned above want things screwed down tight; maybe i'm wrong, either about what they want, here, or abt their control at this point; we shall see
they do NOT need a QE announcement to do this, imo; all they gotta do is wag the dog
slewie thinks ther's a pretty good chance TPTB will want to buy some time politically, in the EU too, here; this also tends to indicate releasing some of the fractile tensions; so i think it is likely we'll go risk0n and risk0ff again by friday
from what i've read the last few daze, after timmah & christie exited stage spain, the EU has 2-400 B EUR for the sov's and anything the swissies or the FED can help with for the commercial ponzi artists in "swap-lines"
the chairsatan has the T market just where he wants it; he couldn't have written a better script for the funding needs of the Treasury in a world of BK zombies
that boo weren't bad, but this just ain't theBigRad
[people make gazillio,000ns$$$ fading slewie!]
is a fictional food product that served as a running joke within the Babylon 5 science fiction television series. In the series' fictional universe, spoo is made from worm-like creatures of the same name and is generally regarded as the most delicious food in the galaxy
I much prefer the articles like this. Great analysis.
It's either some nasty slimey sauce or it's an S&P 500 contract. I'm not sure which is being referred to.
Think of all those stoplosses. I'll be hunting this beast. Call me Ishmael.
I hope your trade ends better than Ishmaels voyage:
Buoyed up by that coffin, for almost one whole day and night, I floated on a soft and dirgelike main. The unharming sharks, they glided by as if with padlocks on their mouths; the savage sea-hawks sailed with sheathed beaks. On the second day, a sail drew near, nearer, and picked me up at last. It was the devious-cruising Rachel, that in her retracing search after her missing children, only found another orphan. FINIS
Where's NewWorld Orange with the Forex trade specifics for this recommendation?
Spoo's is an old trading term, meaning the front contract of the SPX. I haven't heard that word for awhile--since I was floor trading the OEX at the CBOE using the Scharzatron to determine option values. LOL Brings back memories.
There is just the minor matter of timing...
could say so; I'm hunting this whale for a while now and so far, it's abit ellusive...
I'm enjoying the volatility. Although I feel a little dirty to admit this .
It's only a matter of when the FED and other CB intervene openly with the markets. Back in '09, it seemed everyday in February and March, until the FED made the announcement, was a cliff dive. While the ES has been selling off, it's not quite as intense as the February to March '09 selling action. Nonetheless, so many short positions can only equal one thing when the market makes a sudden, deep turn like a CB intervention.
This is a rigged market. Just remember the FED has no limit to the upside, but can only tolerate so much of a selloff or bear market action. Good luck trying to get a fill when the news sends the EUR soaring. European Union is failing, US is slowing, Asia's economy is slowing too. The CBs should be making an announcement not too far into the future, maybe sooner than the Greek election day if the EU thing really dives hard.
Enjoy playing the short side for a while. It seems to have been so long ago that being short was so easy. The easy play won't last for much longer. Keep those stops in place, just in case.
5880-- What does Schawb have to do with the Schartzatron? The Schartzatron used the Black–Scholes model for option valuation/pricing . Steve Schartz out of Chicago made this machine/monitor in the late 70's. It was a neutral- spreader traders dream. Made my first fortune trading the OEX using this machine for valuations of neutral hedging. Never used Schwab, a retail brokerage firm. Hope this clears up the differences of the two entities.
CFTC non-comm shorts have been steadily decreasing since reaching a peak June 5. Current differential between large traders (net short) vs commercial traders (net long) was -227K contracts as of last Tues. 9/04. At its peak this differential was -473K contracts. That's a decrease of 52% in the short position of large traders. Commercials have been unwinding their longs as LT's have unwound their shorts. Last week, commercials increased their shorts by 10K contracts more than they decreased their longs. The decrease in LT shorts/decrease in Comm. longs figures remained in balance.
Keeping in mind that we haven't seen CFTC data since 9/4, and given the extreme bullish action in the EURUSD since, it's pretty safe to say that over the last week and a half; LT's have substantially decreased their shorts even further. In short, not sure what "record short" is being discussed above, but it's not in the EURUSD. Small specs are extremely bearish, but their total position is not statistically significant when compared to Comm's and Large traders.
Safe bet that at this point Large traders are close to flat on their short position. They have not added to their longs throughout the short unwinding process. Next Friday will reveal what has been going on since Tuesday this week. We'll get less than a third of the picture with today's release of COT data which covers the Tues to Tues from 9/4 to 9/11.

The iPhone is great for a number of reasons and one of those reasons is it's camera. Obviously it does have its limitations and can't be compared to anything other than camera phones. However, when comparing quality, features, easy of use, and photo management, it's really at the top of its class.
One other reason the iPhone stands out is its apps and more specifically its photography apps. With these apps you can shoot and process all from within your iPhone.
I have handpicked what I think every iPhone photographer should have installed to really help you get creative and have some fun.

The first entry of a six-part series
BOSTON — Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney started his political career in Massachusetts, but his years at Harvard University first brought him to the state. During his time at Harvard, he struck many of his classmates as unusually optimistic and not at all jaded, even though he arrived on campus at a time of great societal ferment.
Anger over the war in Vietnam was at full throttle in 1971, when Romney began his first year at Harvard Law School.
Protests were common on campuses nationwide, and Harvard was no exception. Just two years before Romney arrived, students protesting Harvard's stance on the war had taken over an administration building in Harvard Yard. Police eventually stormed in with billy clubs and Mace to arrest them, and that incident was still a fresh memory for the often cynical and skeptical student body.
Not Romney.
"Mitt was dramatically different from that," recalls Garret Rasmussen, one of Romney's law school classmates. "He was entirely positive, entirely enthusiastic, not a complaint in the world. He thought it was wonderful to be at law school. That's what stood out about him."
In fact, Romney was a supporter of the U.S. role in Vietnam. He was unlike many of his classmates in other ways, too. He hadn't gone to an East Coast prep school or college. Instead, he'd grown up in Michigan, attended Brigham Young University in Utah, and been a Mormon missionary.
Rasmussen, who's now a partner at a Washington, D.C., law firm, says Romney had a simplicity and straightforwardness that seemed distinctly Midwestern.
"More like a farm boy than a sophisticated New Yorker," he says. "That was the impression. Not that he's dumb, not that he's naive. It's more that he's a country boy more than a city sophisticate."
But Romney was no rube. His father, George Romney, had been the governor of Michigan, the CEO of American Motors, and was in President Nixon's cabinet when his son started law school. That made the Romney name a prominent one on campus. But Mitt Romney was only one of numerous Harvard students from august, wealthy, connected families. His classmates included the son of the U.N. secretary general and the great-granddaughter of Theodore Roosevelt.
"Mitt didn't stand out in the class as some kind of political superstar," says Ron Naples, who also went to Harvard with Romney. "He was one of the guys. He was a guy that I think most people came to know and like." Naples wasn't a law school classmates of Romney; they were business school classmates — part of a tiny, elite group of students earning degrees at both Harvard Law School and Harvard Business School.
Howard Brownstein was also in that group, and he says Romney's short-haired, clean-cut, buttoned-up look was a distinguishing feature.
"It wasn't unusual that you would see fellow students who looked like radicals, and Mitt didn't look like that," Brownstein recalls. "Mitt looked like a pretty straight, conservative guy. He was clearly one of the more traditional-looking and -acting people at the campus. I wouldn't say a stiff. I would say just traditional."
Even Romney's home life was traditional. When he enrolled at Harvard in his mid-20s, Romney already had a wife and two children and even owned a house in nearby, well-to-do Belmont. Brownstein was an occasional guest.
"We were used to living in dorms and apartments and he was sort of living a few years ahead of the rest of us," Brownstein says. "Here was a guy, he was already married, he was living in a nice suburban home. He kind of reminded us of the homes we grew up in."
Even with his family obligations, Romney made time to socialize. He played basketball at a gym in a church in Harvard Square and went to group dinners at restaurants like Joyce Chen and Legal Sea Foods and Cafe Budapest. But he didn't drink, true to his Mormon faith, and Brownstein says you'd never hear him put someone down or utter a curse word.
"Mitt is nothing if not earnest," he adds.
Conservative, old-fashioned, seemingly guileless, so sunny and self-assured he might be mistaken for naïve. That's how Romney's Harvard classmates remember him. And that's in many ways the Romney of today: the classically handsome guy with the beautiful family and nearly perfect life. Someone who seems to expect everything to go right, and for whom everything usually does. But back at Harvard, Romney had another quality — something that's rarely used to describe him these days.
"What impressed me was he had a warmth that just connected to you," says Mark Mazo, who was in a five-person study group with Romney at Harvard Law.
Mazo is aware that Romney the campaigner is often criticized as stiff, cool and unable to relate to regular people. But Mazo, now a Washington, D.C., lawyer, had a recent interaction with Romney — after not having talked to him in about 30 years — that has him standing his ground. At a Romney fundraiser in Washington a few weeks ago, Mazo reintroduced himself.
"I said, 'Governor, it's been a long time since Harvard Law School. I'm Mark Mazo.' And he looked at me and he said, 'Mark Mazo! Mark Mazo!' He said, 'How's Fern?', a reference to Mazo's fiancee in law school, now his wife.
"And my first thought was. 'That was darn good staff work!' " Mazo recalls, explaining that he had RSVPed that he'd be coming and he assumed Romney's handlers had looked up personal details about guests for Romney to sprinkle into conversation.
"But then he said, 'Mark, I remember when you came to dinner at my house,' " Mazo continues. "He said, 'I remember what we had to eat. We had pork chops.' And he was right. That is what we had to eat, was pork chops. I don't know how he remembered it. And there was no amount of staff work that could have filled him in on that one. He actually remembered, which I was blown away with."
Maybe that's nothing more than a sign of a good memory. But Mazo believes it shows that Romney has a more personable, human, down-to-earth side than he reveals in public, or that's captured in soundbites, and that he generally gets credit for. Still, then and now, Romney had a fundamental sense of reserve.
"Mitt was not a quipster," says Janice Stewart, one of a small number of women in Romney's business school class. "He did laugh. I mean, he had a beautiful smile and he laughed, but he wasn't a humor leader. He would never be the one to think of the quip, but if somebody else made a good quip or a good line or something in class he'd laugh at it. But was not the one who was going to invent the laughter."
Stewart, who went on to work in management for Xerox, says there was something else Romney was not: "He was not one of the three or four that we thought of as being the ultra, ultra, ultra bright ones. He was not the brainiac kid in the room."
Brownstein, who was in Harvard's dual degree program with Romney, agrees with that assessment.
"There were some people on that campus who, you know, when they thought, their brain lit up the room," he says. "You could talk to them in a dark room and it would be like sunshine. Mitt was not one of those. Mitt was not the guy who was going to be president of Law Review and be first in the class and go write the Uniform Commercial Code."
He was certainly bright and hard-working, they say, but he was just one of many smart, driven Harvard students. What did distinguish Romney was his participation in that dual-degree program. Out of roughly a combined 1,300 students in his business and law school classes, just 15 graduated from both.
"When we told people we were in the JD/MBA program, you were kind of looked upon as somebody a bit special," recalls Brownstein, now a corporate turnaround specialist.
He says that whereas Harvard Business School puts its students through a practical, problem-solving regimen of analyzing real business case studies and deciding what they would do if they were in charge, "the law school is teaching you at a more theoretical level."
Together, the two educations gave students a detailed knowledge of the law and the government regulatory system, as well as a deep understanding of how to run a business. And those dual-degree graduates were some of Harvard's most sought-after recruits. Stewart describes the power of the twin degree this way: "If you came out of that MBA/JD joint program, it's hard for me to imagine a task that somebody could have could put in front of you that you couldn't do, other than brain surgery. But running anything — running a company, running the Olympics."
Both of which Romney went on to do.
"A lot of us did the safest thing," Rasmussen says. "We would go work for the Boston Consulting Group or Morgan Stanley. Those were the big places that hired out of business school. If you wanted just to play it safe and get rich that's what people did. Or out of law you go to Sullivan & Cromwell in New York or Cravath and things should work out for you. But Mitt was willing to start something on his own."
Right out of Harvard in 1975 — after graduating with honors from the law school and in the top five percent of his business school class — Romney did make a conventional career move by becoming a well-paid consultant. But he later took riskier moves that ultimately made him wildly rich and also complicated his image. Compared to the person his classmates recall from four decades ago, the Romney of 2011 is often criticized as a more hollow, opportunistic man with flexible convictions.

Assembling a new computer system may seem daunting to the first time computer user. Once youve spent time building a new system it can be very rewarding and fun. Starting off with the removal of the side panels, unscrew the thumb screws and push the buttons, then pull out the side panel. HDD installation is accomplished by squeezing and pulling outward the tool-free clip, pulling out the HDD iCage. Insert the HDD into the iCage screw it into place and restore the iCage to its position in the cage. At this point squeeze and push inward to lock the tool-free lock into place.
The motherboard tray is labeled with the holes where you need to screw in the stand-offs for the motherboard. Once the stand-offs are installed, simply screw in screws into the holes that have standoffs. At this point you are ready to install the PCI cards by removing the screw and slot cover from the appropriate PCI slot and inserting the card. Installing the 5.25 Optical drives is a simple procedure of removing the front panel, removing the 5.25 drive bay cover push inward and upward to unlock the clip, insert the drive then push inward and downward to lock it into place. Now its time to connect the wire headers, and install the PSU. Simply insert the PSU into place, adjust the PSU guide to keep it in place and screw the screws in. Connect the cables and wires, do wire management and you are done.
