NASA Research Grant Awarded to BCTC Student
Mark Simonds, a student at Bluegrass Community and Technical College (BCTC), has received a research grant from the NASA Kentucky Space Grant Consortium program. The grant includes a trip to NASA so Simonds can present his project findings.
Although Simonds is a full-time student at BCTC, he also takes classes the University of Kentucky (UK) and is an electrical engineering research assistant at Space Systems Laboratory, a lab on UK's campus. Simonds was part of a team of students that designed and built a satellite that orbits the Earth at 18,000 miles per hour at 300 miles altitude. The satellite passes over Kentucky every 90 minutes, which allows students to communicate with it. The satellite is providing information about its telemetry and attitude, which Simonds will compare with predicted behavior.
BCTC physics professor Dr. Val Zeps is Simonds's advisor on the project.
"I am very excited to work on this project, and I am thankful for BCTC's support," Simonds said.
The NASA Kentucky Space Grant Consortium is a NASA Higher Education program supporting student fellowships/scholarships, research initiation and workforce development in Science, Technology, Engineering and Math (STEM) areas of interest to NASA and Kentucky. Space Grant also promotes networking and cooperation among education, industry, and local, state and federal government.

Die Hard 5 an abusive exercise in mayhem
1980s action heroes have been taking it on the chin lately. In his comeback to the big screen, Arnold Schwarzenegger's The Last Stand brought in a measly $12 million while Sylvester Stallone's Bullet to the Head fared even worse, bringing in only $8.5 million. Ironically, with his latest, their contemporary Bruce Willis will score the biggest box office success of the three though his film is the worst of the bunch.
A Good Day to Die Hard will draw an audience simply based on its brand name but it's a soulless, unimaginative exercise that doesn't set out to entertain an audience so much as bludgeon it into submission. With nary an original idea or line of dialogue in sight, this is the sort of movie that singlehandedly kills franchises. It's obvious that its makers, hack director John Moore and "screenwriter" Skip Woods, are simply spinning their wheels hoping to obscure the fact that they have nothing new to offer with scenes of mass destruction.
The plot, what there is of it, involves McClane (Willis) traveling to Moscow after his son (Jai Courtney) has been taken into custody. Dad's not sure what the charges are, but he's off to save his boy, who happens to be a CIA agent involved in helping to free a Soviet dissident (Sebastian Koch). The extraction of this key figure to maintaining stability in Russia goes sideways and before you know it, father and son are on the run, trying to protect their charge while avoiding the bad guys, whose motivations remain murky throughout.
I'm not going to waste anymore time on the plot here. It is of little consequence. This is a movie that exists to thrill its audience, stringing together one mindless action sequence after another and failing at every turn. Every action scene is impossible to follow, what with Moore's rapid cutting and camera movement, so much so I'm surprised I didn't have a seizure. More disturbing is how irresponsible the filmmaker is in the way he presents the mayhem. To be sure, action films require a suspension of disbelief, which includes ignoring the fact that innocent bystanders get maimed or killed in them. However, here the action is so relentless and takes place in such crowded venues that a sense of queasiness soon sets in. It's obvious that McClane and son are not heroes as much as public menaces, likely responsible for the death of hundreds. Any sense of escapism is absent from this heartless exercise and that quality has always been one of the most appealing aspects of the Die Hard franchise.
Also missing is the sense that McClane is a real character of any sort. Here, he's nothing but a quip machine uttering inane dialogue at every turn, each line a pithy wisecrack that falls short. Willis has charm to spare but even his considerable charisma can't bring any life to this tired exercise. Without question, the film's last 15 minutes are inspired and deliver some much-needed thrills. But it's much too little, too late as Moore and company have abused the viewer so much that we're far too bruised and battered to be in the mood for this sort of entertainment.

HARTFORD, Conn. - A 37-year-old New York woman accused of pretending to be related to a young victim of the Sandy Hook Elementary School shootings and of seeking donations through Facebook was arraigned Thursday at federal court on charges of lying to a federal agent.
Nouel Alba, of the Bronx, was arrested as part of an investigation into fraudulent fundraising schemes related to the shootings.
She was released after posting $50,000 bail. She covered her head and face with her coat as she ran from the courthouse in downtown Hartford and, other than denying any wrongdoing, declined to speak to reporters.
Alba was taken into custody Thursday by FBI agents.
"This arrest should serve as a warning to anyone who attempts to profit from this tragedy by contriving fraudulent schemes that exploit the many victims, their families and individuals who sincerely want to help," said David B. Fein, Connecticut's chief federal prosecutor.
Investigators continue to watch the Internet for scams arising out of the Newtown tragedy, he said.
"It's unconscionable to think that the families of the victims in Newtown, and a sympathetic community looking to provide them some sort of financial support and comfort, have become the targets of criminals," said Kimberly K. Mertz, the FBI special agent in charge of the New Haven, Conn., division of the FBI. Alba's "arrest is a stern message that the FBI will investigate and bring to justice those who perpetrate Internet fundraising scams, especially those scams that exploit the most vulnerable in their time of shared sorrow."
According to the criminal complaint filed against her, within hours of the massacre, Alba had posted on her Facebook account that her nephew was one of the victims and that she had provided photos to law enforcement officers.
The following day, according to the complaint, she posted this on her Facebook account: "We've set up a funeral fund for my brother and families. Anyone willing to make a donation can make one either through (PayPal) or (deposit to a checking account). We like to thank everyone for your prayers. We ask that you continue to not just pray for us but for the families who have lost their kid."
Alba claimed to be related to Noah Pozner, 6, one of the Sandy Hook first-grade students killed in the Dec. 14 shooting.
The federal complaint says that Alba provided contact information to several people who expressed interest in donating, including a New York resident. That person told federal agents that Alba "claimed to have had to go to Sandy Hook Elementary School and enter the crime scene to identify her nephew for law enforcement personnel," according to the complaint. No family members were permitted into the school.
Alba also exchanged text messages with the New York resident in which she claimed to have assisted other family members in dealing with the tragedy, the complaint says. In one text, she claimed to have been in Newtown when President Barack Obama went there to meet with victims and to speak at a prayer service. The New York resident asked Alba if she was watching the president, and Alba responded: "No, I'm sitting in my car. Emotionally, I can't deal with it right now. Tomorrow I'll see (Noah) in a casket and that will be hard enough to handle," according to the criminal complaint.
Alba also claimed to have met with Obama, texting to the New York resident: "I'm sure he'll give a good speech. He met with us, hugged us, even cried with us. He's really down to earth."
After the exchanges, the New York resident sent money that went to Alba's PayPal account, and a second person also sent money, according to the complaint.
In an interview with FBI agents on Dec. 21, Alba was warned that lying to a federal agent was a crime. She went on, the FBI says, to repeatedly lie about her conduct related to fundraising efforts on behalf of Sandy Hook victims. She denied posting anything to her Facebook page, denied knowing her PayPal account was being used to solicit donations, denied recently accessing her PayPal account and claimed that others had posted information to her Facebook account without her knowledge. She also claimed to have returned any donations she received, even though she had not done so, authorities said.
The Connecticut attorney general's office has fielded a couple of complaints about fundraising on behalf of Sandy Hook victims, according to spokeswoman Susan Kinsman, but she said those probably can't be called fraudulent schemes.
She said that Connecticut law requires fundraisers or charities to be registered before raising money for charitable causes. The complaints, so far, have been about fundraisers that are not registered.
"They're not charities," Kinsman said of the fundraisers that are the subjects of complaints. "They're people who are trying to raise some money for the United Way Fund or piggyback and give money to a charity fund that's been established."
She said the complaints have been referred to the Department of Consumer Protection.

My Big Shot Moment at the Movies
|Mikias and Maddy
I was under no obligation to blog about the movie and I knew I wouldn't unless it either offended me or blew me away. It sure didn't offend me. I loved it. Really, really loved it. I don't want to tell you too much about it because I am afraid I would make the movie not sound as good as it really is. You can check out the trailer, The Odd Life of Timothy Green to get an idea.
I know that most of the readers of this blog have a connection to adoption. I was really touched by "The Odd Life of Timothy Green" and want to know how other people (not just those in the adoption community) feel about it. Go see it. Let me know.

Chris Brown to Perform at the 2012 Grammy Awards
Chris Brown has been added to the all-star lineup of the 2012 Grammy Awards, the same event at which he assaulted his then-girlfriend Rihanna three years ago.
The Recording Academy announced Brown as a performer at the 54th-annual show, along with Carrie Underwood and Tony Bennett. Rihanna is also scheduled to perform on Sunday.
In 2009, Brown and Rihanna were scheduled to perform together at the awards show, but the 'Beautiful People' singer allegedly attacked Rihanna following a pre-Grammy party. Brown is currently serving five years of probation for the felony assault charge.
Brown completed court-ordered domestic violence counseling last year, but the 22-year-old R&B singer let his temper get the best of him at 'Good Morning America,' where he allegedly smashed a dressing room window after reporter Robin Roberts pressed him about the assault and conviction. In 2011, Rihanna lifted her restraining order against Brown, and the two have been spotted talking via the social network Twitter.
Brown's successful 2011 album 'F.A.M.E. (Forgiving All My Enemies)' is nominated for three Grammys this year, including Best R&B Album, and Best Rap Performance and Best Rap Song for 'Look at Me Now.' Rihanna is nominated for four awards, including Album of the Year and Best Pop Vocal Album for 'Loud.'
The Grammys will air live on CBS on Sunday, Feb. 12 at 8 p.m. ET.

While we have generally found the most attractive opportunities for our Absolute Returns portfolio in areas other than IPOs, the business of private equity may be a slightly different matter.
Continue Reading Below
While IPOs are often seen as an attempt to cash out by owners and management, the private equity model is proving uniquely successful - at least in terms of offloading via IPO some assets they acquired during the downturn.
A case in point would be Blackstone Group's IPO of Seaworld, a success seemingly predicated upon investor tolerance for risk - along with some very nice PR work involving penguins touring the Blackstone headquarters.
The IPO success resulted in significant financial reward for Blackstone and more significantly from private equity's perspective, indicated market tolerance toward leveraged companies (of which there are a number in the IPO pipeline).
Should the private equity model continue to flourish in advantageous market conditions, we believe our holding Blackstone is likely to benefit accordingly.
In other developments, we exited our position in Two Harbours following its distribution of Silver Bay, whilst model holding MetroPCS benefited from an improved offer in the terms of its merger with T Mobile USA, eventually approving the deal and listing on the NYSE as.
We continue to seek attractive opportunities to deploy the cash currently at hand.
The investments discussed are held in client accounts as of April 30, 2013. These investments may or may not be currently held in client accounts. The reader should not assume that any investments identified were or will be profitable or that any investment recommendations or investment decisions we make in the future will be profitable.

Best Body Shapewear
These are not your grandma's girdles! We've rounded up the best post-pregnancy compression garments and postpartum body shapewear, including brands like Spanx, Vedette and Yummie Tummie
- prev
- Next
- 1 of 29
- Corbia
Sadly, baby bellies don't necessarily disappear just because the baby is out. Post-delivery, many women are left with a postpartum pooch or other less-than-toned reminders of pregnancy. To help you look like the best version of you, however far past delivery you are, we tried on tons of postpartum shapewear to find the best remedies for post-baby jiggle. We found a range of options to control everything from bums to thighs and upper arms—and of course, the mummy tummy.
It is possible to Love Your New-Mom Body!
- YummieTummie
Yummie Tummie Chiffon Tier Top
Slimming and sexy, this top allows you to keep the fact that you're wearing shapewear a secret. With the Yummie Tummie three-panel system hidden on the inside, only you will know that you've got some help to look like one hot mama. Available in white, black and navy, sizes XS to XL.
Chiffon Tier Top from yummietummie.com, $96
- Miraclebody
Miraclebody Jeggings
Jeggings are no longer just for stick-thin girls—these ones actually help transform wearers into skinny girls (at least while they're on), thanks in part to a belly-flattening panel tucked inside. The dark indigo wash is super-flattering, and the comfy, stretchy waistband and relatively high rise (10 inches) can be forgiven for how flat they help make a post-baby belly (just layer on a longer top).
Note: the sizing runs a bit big and you want them to be tight, so if you're between sizes, order down instead of up. Sizes 2 to 16.
Denim Leggings from miraclebody.com, $48
- spanx.com
Spanx High-Waisted Tight-End Convertible Leggings
From the company whose name is synonymous with shapewear, these convertible leggings start just below the bra line, preventing any muffin top at the waist while slimming the tummy, hips, thighs and bum; the leggings can be worn at the ankle or under the heel. A cotton double gusset allows for easier trips to the bathroom, if you're cool with skipping undies for the day. Available in black, midnight (navy), bittersweet (dark brown) and charcoal; sizes A to G (see size chart for specifics).
Convertible Leggings from spanx.com, $38
- Glamourmom
Glamourmom Nursing Bra Tummy Control Long Tank
From the maker of our fave nursing camis, this latest addition to the line might just be a nursing mama's new BFF. Offering the same ease of use, discrete openings and flattering length as their other long tanks, it also rocks a built-in, inner layer support panel, allowing you to show off a slimmer version of yourself without waiting for nursing to shed those pregnancy pounds. Available in black, sizes S to XL.
Nursing Bra Tummy Control Long Tank from glamourmom.com, $49
- HardTail
Hard Tail Yoga Pant
Although not expressly shapewear, these yoga pants trim tummies just the same, with their fold-over waistband that camouflages like crazy. Some moms live in these for several months post-baby; later, they make you feel cute when you're ready to get back to the gym. Note: these pants run long (32.5-inch inseam), so shorter mamas may need to have them hemmed. Available in a range of colors, sizes XS to L.
Yoga Pant from nordstrom.com, $56 and up
- sassybax.com
Sassybax Armed & Dangerous
Despite all of the lifting and carrying that comes with motherhood, sometimes the backs of our arms just don't seem to get the message that they should be totally toned by now. Fortunately, this top helps upper arms look slimmer, as well as offering moderate torso compression to help the rest of your body look sleeker too. Available in nude, black, white and red, sizes S to XL.
Armed & Dangerous from sassybax.com, $68
- vedettestore.com
Vedette Full Body Shaper
This is a serious, special-occasion shaper, offering very firm (read: zero jiggle) control for the tummy, back and thighs. It fits under the bra line, allowing access to "the girls" for nursing moms. The straps are adjustable, and it comes with an open cotton gusset (which you'll appreciate, given how challenging it would be to remove this thing in a restroom). Available in buff, sizes 3XS to 3XL.
Stephanie from vedettestore.com, $84
- lipoinabox.com
Lipo in a Box Bodysuit
Soft and comfy, this shaper helps to slim mama's midriff with a light level of compression. Easy-to-use hook-and-eye closures at the crotch make it easy to hit the loo without stripping down, and the built-in underwire allows wearers to avoid the dreaded bra bulge. Bonus: all products come in a mesh bag to keep them safe in the wash. Available in nude and black, sizes XS to 3X.
Bodysuit with Underwire from lipoinabox.com, $76
- slimpressions.com
Slimpressions Tanks a Little
Also available in a version with sleeves, nursing mamas will love this seamless tank that makes accessing a nursing bra a snap. This tank helps to smooth back fat, slim bellies and tame muffin tops with moderate compression. The garment stretches all the way down to the hip bone, where a reinforced band helps it to stay in place, minimizing roll-ups. Available in black and nude, sizes 1 (XS/S) to 3 (L/XL).
Tanks a Little from slimpressions.com, $62
- wacoal-america.com
Wacoal Get in Shape Hi-Waist Long Leg Shaper

Nursing T Tank from yummietummie.com, $82

Body Perfect Capri from donnakaran.com, $35
- skinnyjeans.com
Hello! Skinny StellarJeans
These slimming jeans from Hello! Skinny are ideal for postpartum moms since they make you look a few pounds lighter as soon as you put them on. We're crazy about the dark indigo wash and the stretchy, thick denim that supports and doesn't sag. They come in a 33-inch inseam, in sizes 24-34. These StellarJeans run long, so you may need to hem. Also available in corduroy.
StellarJeans from skinnyjeans.com, $188
- Belly Bandit
Belly Bandit Mother Tucker Compression Tank
Celebs like Bethenny Frankel and Julie Bowen love Belly Bandit products, and so do we. These compression tanks can be worn alone or underneath an outfit (but we prefer it as a base layer). It's long enough that it can be tucked in—and has an anti-roll bottom that will keep it from riding up. It's slimming, but not constricting. Nursing moms should make sure that the bust doesn't compress too much, especially in the scoop neck version. Available in black and nude, sizes S to XL.
Mother Tucker from bellybandit.com, $69.95
- Leonisa
Leonisa Countour Shaper
This boyshort-style shaper offers some serious compression—a butt lift combined with a tummy tuck! Warning: as you fasten the hook-and-eye closures before zipping up the front, do yourself a favor and do not look down; all that cinching isn't pretty, but the sight of yourself dressed with this underneath is. Comes with adjustable and convertible straps and an open gusset. Available in black and nude, sizes XS to 3XL.
Contour Shaper from leonisausa.com, $59.99
- cupidintimates.com
TC Even More Torsette
This top, which fits right underneath the bra line, helps to smooth and shrink the waistline—we easily fit into our just-a-bit-too-small jeans with its help. Its wide padded straps (which aren't adjustable but do stretch) didn't dig into shoulders, and the grippy texture on the inside of the waistband helps prevent roll-up. Available in black and nude, sizes S to 2XL.
Torsette from cupidintimates.com, $56
- Spanx
Spanx Higher Power Brief
We love this super high-waisted brief, which offers moderate control across the middle without any rollover at the waist. It's short enough to allow for shorter hemlines (unlike lots of other shapewear that stretches to the mid-thigh or lower) and comes with a breathable all-cotton panty, Available in bare, black and cocoa, sizes A to G.
Higher Power Brief from spanx.com, $36
- japaneseweekend.com
Japanese Weekend Nursing Body Shaper Top
From one of our fave maternity and nursing lines comes a nursing tank with a bit of compression built right in. Made from nylon and spandex, this shirt is super comfy and holds everything in with light support. It can be worn on its own or as a layering piece. Available in nude and black, sizes XS to XL.
Nursing Body Shaper Top from japaneseweekend.com, $66
- Belly Bandit
Kourtney Kardashian Limited Edition Belly Bandit
Celebs moms (like, yes, Kourtney Kardashian, who's been photographed wearing hers to the gym) swear by these. It's believed that an abdominal compression wrap like this, when worn steadily in the first several weeks postpartum, helps to provide constant pressure against the abdomen, helping to reduce uterine swelling, decrease bloating, flatten the post-baby jelly belly and improve your posture when nursing. Also available in original ($45.95), couture ($55.95) and bamboo ($65.95), sizes XS to XL.
Belly Bandit from bellybandit.com, $65.95
- Sassybax
Sassybax Butt-Boosting Shaper
Most moms we know could use an extra spring in their step—and this butt-boosting shaper (that lifts, rounds and separates) can help to provide it. Meant to be worn either at the waist or below the navel, this shaper helps flatten bellies and trim thighs while improving your rear view. Available in nude and black, sizes S to 2X.
Butt-Boosting Shaper from sassybax.com, $55
- vedettestore.com
Vedette Body Suit with Bra
We were surprised to find that this shaper offered not only slimming power but some serious sex appeal. A miraculous hourglass shape appears as soon as you slip into this medium control body suit. Available in nude and black, cup sizes A through E, sizes 3XS to 3XL.
Body Suit from vedettestore.com, $76
- thegirlsapparel.com
The Girls Tummy Control Boot Cut Pant
These tummy control yoga pants got rave reviews from our tester. Sturdy, comfortable, affordable and flattering, they'll give you added incentive to get back to the gym. Inseam is 30.5 inches. Available in white, black, heather gray, charcoal, brown and navy, sizes XS to XL.
Tummy Control Boot Cut Pant from thegirlsapparel.com, $34.99
- Spanx
Spanx On Top and In Control Essential 3/4 Sleeve Bateau
If you're looking for just a wee bit of slimming and trimming help, this bateau top can help. Wearable alone or as a layering piece, it's best for moms who want comfortable, light control, instead of heavier-duty harnessing. Also comes in sleeveless, turtleneck, scoop and v-neck styles. Available in a range of neutral hues, sizes S to 3X.
Bateau Shirt from spanx.com, $98-102
- shatobu.com
ShaToBu High Waist Shaping Tight
Developed by a female chiropractor, ShaToBu is a shaper created with seamless resistance bands, designed to help wearers' muscles work a bit harder (and thus burn more calories). While they won't feel much different (if at all) from traditional shapewear, the company's product line underwent independent scientific testing at the University of Virginia, where it was determined to help burn up to 12% more calories during daily activities like walking or climbing stairs. And when trying to get back into those pre-pregnancy jeans, we'll gladly take any extra help we can get. Available in black, gray and brown, sizes S to 2XL.
High Waist Shaping Tight from mytights.com, $38
- donnakaran.com
Donna Karan Body Perfect Level 1 Waist Embrace
Offering moderate control from high waist to mid-thigh, this shaper helps smooth silhouettes under clothes and leaves new mamas bulge-free, even at the edges. Note: it does not have an open gusset, so you'll have to peel it down to do your business. Available in nude and black, sizes S to L.
Waist Embrace from donnakaran.com, $45
- lipoinabox.com
Lipo in a Box High Waist Brief with Legs
Soft to the touch, but tough on bumps and bulges, this high waist brief with legs helps to flatten tummies without smushing tushies. The waist is high enough that it didn't roll down or need constant adjustment. Available in nude, chocolate and black, sizes XS to 3X.

Mobile & Wireless Slideshow: 10 Tactics For Selling Your CEO On the iPhone
The BlackBerry Value Proposition
RIM's latest BlackBerry OS 6 is an iterative update over the previous version and, for most companies, not enough to warrant a changeover to a new device such as the Torch. Apple's iOS 4 is arguably the most significant update made to the iPhone in years. It provides a level of user interface that BlackBerry OS 6 can't match.
Four of 10 sales of the iPhone are made to enterprise users, according to AT&T Business Solutions CEO Ron Spears. Some of you may be surprised at Spears' comments, made at the Barclays Capital Communications, Media, and Technology conference in New York in May. After all, the iPhone has yet to penetrate the corporate world the way that BlackBerry has, and there are many sound business and technology reasons for why this is the case. It lacks the deep enterprise control and security capabilities of the BlackBerry and its accompanying BlackBerry Enterprise Server, and Apple's still not going out of its way to make things easy for the enterprise. At the same time, Apple's efforts at making Exchange more usable and giving IT managers a tad more control over the iPhone than they originally had have helped move toward becoming a valid alternative to RIM's offering for some enterprises. And, it looks like a security powerhouse compared with Android OS. Chances are, you and your fellow C-Suite executives are already using the device, even if you aren't officially welcoming it into your enterprise. If you're looking to follow in the footsteps of enterprises such as Kraft Foods, Trek Bicycles, pharmaceutical company Novartis and security firm Unisys, then you have already decided that the iPhone is a fit for your enterprise. The challenge now is to sell your CEO on it. Here are some pointers to help you build your business pitch and sell your CEO on the iPhone.

Bill Kristol calls attention to this exchange between that most ardent of Chuck Hagel admirers, Steve Clemons, and Hagel critic Dan Senor:
CLEMONS: The most important thing about Hagel—and with all due respect to Dan and some of his colleagues—there seems to be this effort by Israel and its supporters over and over to continue to run resolutions to say, "How much do you love me, America? Do you love me today, do you love me tomorrow, do love me again?" And I think that what Hagel has done has said, "I'm supportive of Israel, but at the same time, I'm not going to create a zero-sum game between Israel and its neighbors that also have vital national security relationships with the United States."
SENOR: But. . .when senators vote to designate the Iranian revolutionary guard corps a terrorist organization, what these senators cite is not just the threat Iran poses to Israel, they cite the threat that Iran poses to America. When they cite—when they vote to designate, or call on the E.U., for instance, to designate Hezbollah a terrorist organization, they cite the damage that Hezbollah has done to American military men and women, to American security interests. And for Steve to just—to sweep this away as this is just Israel and Israel supporters wanting a bunch of love letters is really, I'd say actually, offensive.
I like Steve Clemons. But I've been in the room when he has discussed Israel, contempt dripping from his voice. The question on these occasions is never "How much does he love Israel?" The questions are always the same ones people are asking about his friend Chuck Hagel: "How deep does his animosity towards Israel run and what are its sources?"

'Fear Festers'
"The longer Cyprus is not dealt with, the more fear festers in the market about contagion, which continues to support Treasuries," said Jason Rogan, director of U.S. government trading at Guggenheim Partners LLC, a New York-based brokerage for institutional investors. "People don't want to be short headed into the weekend. Even if you think it's not a bad situation, you can't fight the market right now." Short positions are bets an asset will fall.
Treasuries trimmed their advance after sales of existing U.S. homes increased 0.8% in February to a 4.98 million annualized rate, the most since November 2009, figures from the National Association of Realtors showed today in Washington. The median forecast of 77 economists surveyed by Bloomberg called for an increase to a 5 million pace.
Labor Department data showed applications for jobless benefits increased by 2,000 to 336,000 in the week ended March 16. Economists projected 340,000 claims, according to the median estimate in a Bloomberg survey. The monthly average dropped to the lowest since February 2008.
U.S. Auctions
The Treasury will announce today it will auction $35 billion of two-year debt on March 26, the same amount of five- year notes the next day and $29 billion of seven-year securities on March 28, according to Wrightson ICAP LLC, an economic advisory company based in Jersey City, New Jersey. The government is scheduled to sell $13 billion of 10-year inflation-linked notes today.
The yield gap between 10-year Treasury Inflation Protected Securities and nominal U.S. notes, which signals traders' outlook for consumer prices over the life of the debt, narrowed to 2.54% today, down from a closing-basis high this year of 2.59% on March 14. The measure, called the 10-year break-even rate, has averaged 2.36% over the past year.
The Fed will buy as much as $1.75 billion of Treasuries maturing from February 2036 to February 2043 today under its quantitative-easing program aimed at stimulating the economy through lower borrowing costs.
"Labor market conditions have shown signs of improvement in recent months but the unemployment rate remains elevated," the Federal Open Market Committee said yesterday at the end a two-day meeting in Washington. Recent data suggest "a return to moderate economic growth following a pause late last year."

Mohamed El-Erian, widely viewed as the successor to Pacific Investment Management Co.'s Bill Gross, resigned after six years as the firm struggles to stem record redemptions from the world's largest bond fund.
El-Erian, 55, will leave his dual roles of chief executive officer and co-chief investment officer in mid-March, according to a statement yesterday from Allianz SE, the Munich-based parent of Pimco. Douglas Hodge, the firm's operating chief, will become CEO, and money managers Andrew Balls and Daniel Ivascyn will become deputy investment chiefs, overseeing the firm's $1.97 trillion alongside CIO Gross.
El-Erian was the first Pimco manager to share the title of investment chief with Gross, a role that cemented his standing as the heir apparent to the firm's 69-year-old founder. Responsible for transforming Pimco from a bond shop into a diversified fund manager, El-Erian spearheaded a push into stocks, a move Allianz CEO Michael Diekmann said in October was proving harder than he had expected. With clients pulling a record $41 billion from the $237 billion Pimco Total Return last year as interest rates rose, Pimco needs alternatives to traditional bonds to keep assets from shrinking.
"For Pimco, it is a disappointment," Kurt Brouwer, chairman of Tiburon, California-based Brouwer & Janachowski Inc., who has invested in Pimco funds since the 1980s, said in a telephone interview. El-Erian "was brought in as the next generation of management and obviously it didn't work out."
Investment Committee
El-Erian's departure, coupled with the sabbatical taken by generalist money manager Chris Dialynas, means the firm's investment committee that sets strategy guidelines will lose two of its permanent members. The committee incorporates Pimco's world views into investment strategies for money managers. Gross, in a December interview posted on Pimco's website, said a model portfolio established by the firm's investment committee is the driving force behind the positioning of its funds.
"He's definitely a loss to any company," UBS AG Chairman Axel Weber said about El-Erian in an interview with Francine Lacqua at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland today, adding that he's known him for "many years." "Pimco had a tough year last year, there were outflows, and the whole asset management business has been very tough, in particular if you're a bond investor."
Harvard Stint
Under El-Erian, who made a name for himself investing in emerging-market debt early on in his career at Pimco, the bond firm more than tripled its assets under management as investors flocked to fixed income after the 2008 financial crisis. He is listed as manager of eight mutual funds with $10.2 billion, according to data compiled by Bloomberg, a fraction of the firm's overall assets. His departure won't prompt an exodus from Pimco funds, said Brouwer.
"As an investor this is not an issue for me," Brouwer said. "I cannot imagine anyone saying, 'I will not be in a Pimco fund because El-Erian is not there.'"
Gross brought El-Erian back to Pimco in 2007 following a stint running Harvard University's endowment because he knew "Mohamed could fill an important part of the puzzle" in planning for succession, Gross said in a 2010 Bloomberg interview.

Arkansas County Prosecuting Attorney Robert Dittrich said Kendrick Haynes, 21, of Stuttgart is still in custody at Arkansas County Detention Center.
Formal charges are expected in the coming days against Kendrick L. Haynes.
Arkansas County Prosecuting Attorney Robert Dittrich said Haynes, 21, of Stuttgart is still in custody at Arkansas County Detention Center.
"I anticipate it pretty quickly," Dittrich said about filing formal charges against Haynes for his alleged involvement in the Aug. 25 botched robbery at A-Z Mart, located at 720 N. Main.
The incident left Bronshea Lamar Ferrell, 19, of Humphrey dead and a store clerk injured.
Haynes along with Ferrell allegedly entered the store at 9:50 p.m. that Friday night with masks over their faces, according to the Stuttgart Police Department incident report. There were three clerks on duty in the store who decided to put up a fight against the pair.
When one of the suspects went behind the counter, a struggle for a firearm ensued, leaving one clerk with a bullet wound in the abdomen. The clerks fought for the gun and shot Ferrell in the head. Haynes received three bullet wounds that were described as superficial.
"I followed the (store clerk) and made our way past several customers inside the store and one behind the counter. I saw that (the clerk) had a black semi-auto handgun in his right hand. I told (him) to put the weapon down. He handed me the pistol at that time," SPD Sgt. Phillip Bogy wrote in his incident report. "We then went behind the counter where I saw a black male lying on the floor in front of the fryers. He was dressed in black and was lying on his right side. I saw a gunshot wound to his forehead and there was a large pool of blood…I then saw another individual with a gunshot wound to his abdomen. He was sitting on the floor being supported by one of the employees."
Ferrell was transported to Baptist Health Medical Center-Stuttgart (BHMC-S) and on to the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences (UAMS) where he later died from his wound. The injured store clerk was transported to BHMC-Stuttgart for his injuries as well.
Haynes fled the scene and was apprehended later, according to law enforcement.
The Arkansas State Police is leading the investigation.

The 100 Moments of TSU Athletics presented by Taco Bell® series continues by remembering one of the central figures in Tennessee State athletic history.
Walter S. Davis originally played football for the Tigers in the late 1920's, helping the Tigers to several winning season.
However, Davis will not be remembered as a player.
Davis returned to his alma mater in 1933 and became head coach of the TSU football team until 1936. As coach, he led the Tigers to 17 wins, 7 losses and 4 tied games. This ranks him eighth at Tennessee State in total wins and fifth at Tennessee State in winning percentage (.700).
After President William J. Hale retired in 1943 after 30 years of service, Davis was selected as his successor becoming the second president. From 1943 until his retirement in 1968, President Davis led the institution through a period of tremendous growth and change. As a result of his efforts, the university increased its academic offerings, built new facilities and gained worldwide recognition.
During his tenure, Tennessee Agricultural and Industrial State College achieved university status in 1951 and the Tennessee Board of Education elevated the university to a full-fledged land-grant university in 1957. In 1958, the University was fully accredited by the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools. Davis committed to athletic excellence by hiring legendary coaches John A. Merritt, John McClendon and Edward "Ed" Temple, who produced internationally renowned athletes such as Wilma Rudolph, Ralph Boston, Wyomia Tyus, Edith McGuire Duvall and Chandra Cheeseborough.
In honor of his accomplishments, TSU built the Walter S. Davis Humanities Building in 1933. The building was renovated and enlarged in 1967 and 1997. The building houses the Department of Languages Literature and Philosophy, and the Center for Administrative Computer Services.
Under Davis' leadership, 24 new buildings were constructed on the campus and it was during his tenure that athletes from Tennessee State University commanded the attention of the nation and the world by winning national championships and titles in football, basketball and swimming, along with Olympic medals in track and field.
Davis retired in 168 and was inducted into the Tennessee State University's Sports Hall of Fame in 1983.
The 100 Moments of TSU Athletics presented by Taco Bell® highlights some of the greatest moments in honor of Tennessee State's centennial celebration. A new moment will be released each weekday for a total of 100. These moments were chosen by the TSU 100 Moments committee, which consists of alums from various departments. TSU has so many great moments, not all can be represented in these 100.
