John McCain has paid lip service to being a "green" candidates, despite his numerous votes in that past against alternative energy. Now he's given up the charade by picking Sarah Palin as his VP.
It's crazy for the United States to be subsidizing oil and sending billions of dollars overseas for our energy. Of course we can't solve this overnight with renewable energies, but investment in this area will spur economic development and over time will reduce our dependency on oil.
Tom Friedman takes on McCain:
I am not against a limited expansion of off-shore drilling now. But it is a complete sideshow. By constantly pounding into voters that his energy focus is to "drill, drill, drill," McCain is diverting attention from what should be one of the central issues in this election: who has the better plan to promote massive innovation around clean power technologies and energy efficiency.
Why? Because renewable energy technologies — what I call "E.T." — are going to constitute the next great global industry. They will rival and probably surpass "I.T." — information technology. The country that spawns the most E.T. companies will enjoy more economic power, strategic advantage and rising standards of living. We need to make sure that is America. Big oil and OPEC want to make sure it is not.
Palin's nomination for vice president and her desire to allow drilling in the Alaskan wilderness "reminded me of a lunch I had three and half years ago with one of the Russian trade attachés," global trade consultant Edward Goldberg said to me. "After much wine, this gentleman told me that his country was very pleased that the Bush administration wanted to drill in the Alaskan wilderness. In his opinion, the amount of product one could actually derive from there was negligible in terms of needs. However, it signified that the Bush administration was not planning to do anything to create alternative energy, which of course would threaten the economic growth of Russia."

What do you think about this product?
Have questions about this product?
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
I really love these specialty pieces. They take a little bit to get used to and to figure out where they work best but once they start to work they are marvelous. There have been many times where I was climbing a crack that was too deep and thin for any of my nuts/cams, but perfect for these ball nuts. They also feel really solid when you get it in a good placement. Much more solid than I thought. I would recommend adding a few of these to any trad rack as they will always come in handy at some point. I have the two smallest sizes and I believe those are the most useful.
Smallest 2 Sizes (#1 and #2)
If not going for the full set, folks like the smallest 2 sizes. For the bigger sizes, a small cam is usually easier to place.
Sizes Sizes
#1 : 3-6 mm
#2 : 4.5-9 mm
#3 : 6-12 mm
#4 : 8-14 mm
#5 : 10.5-18 mm
this should be in the specs, thanks dude!
Good aid piece
It is a good aid piece for narrow placements.
A bit hard to retrieve especially after high stepping on it but that's an adequate price for the job.
CAMP USA Ball Nut
Ball nuts
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
Good gear for small cracks.
I used the number 2 to protect the crux of a 24 (low 5.12 in US terms I think) we were working. I bought them specifically as no other piece would fit for the crux. The only other piece below that (which we could get into the crack) was a number 1 RP. We took about 5 falls on the ball nut and it held every time.
However, we did notice that the ball nut shifted about a bit when we were dogging the move, even with a draw on, making the placement a bit sketchy and requiring a reset. It could be operater error, but other climbers I have talked to who also use ball nuts have noticed the same thing. So, I would be particularly careful with ball nuts to check they have not moved if you are resting on them repeatedly.
I think there is room for improvement of the design of these units. For example, the plastic stem is thicker than the size of the head on the smaller nuts, which can make it difficult to set the piece deep in smaller cracks.
Overall, the bottom line is ball nuts do a great job of protecting very small cracks and, for me anyway, did what no other piece could do. But, maybe more than other types of pro, care needs to be taken if they are subject to lots of movement.
That really Thin Line
Ever get to that spot where the 2x0 C3 really does not fit, and your sketched on leading on a piece rated at 6kn? Carry ball nuts. Period. You can place them passively, or actively. They suck into the crack, are bomber, lighter than anything (ever leave gear on the deck because 'it weighs too much'?) Get the ball nuts.
Amazing when nothing else works
The best for parallel thin cracks period.
Specialty Piece
I have the 2 smallest sizes (1 & 2) of these guys and they are great pieces for your aid arsenal. I have found the 2 smallest sizes to be most useful, above that you can get Black Diamond C3 000's (or other micro cams). These really shine in parallel sided thin cracks where you can't get a decent micro nut placement.
ball nuts
Awesome product great for protecting small cracks quickly!! I've taken a few good falls on the smaller sizes and didn't budge a millimetre. The only issue is that it can take forever to get them out once fallen on....but hey I didn't hit the deck and that's what counts.
I though these were okay until...
I fell on the #3. It was in a shallow flared seam. The ball rotated in the groove of the nut and held fast. The piece was hard to clean, but held the fall like a champ. The 2 and 3 stay on the racking biner with my small stoppers, rocks and microstoppers. Even the larger ones will go places that cams will not. I do not consider the smallest size worthy of lead falls of any size, however.
Great pieces
I've used these fro about 15 years. I've gotten out of a lot of uprotected positions with them. You will have to watch the placement and make sure they are set correctly, but they are usually very solid and I've never had one pull out when fallen on or weighted.
These are a great addition to your box of tricks.
When I became ...
a huge fan was on Arrow Place at Red Rocks using my partners Ball Nut. Better really for aid and granite routes, but we find our purpose for these bad boys in the sandstone at times. A savior at the start of Arrow Place where cacti wait patiently below the crux decking move.
I bought one for the very same route and have since found places for them on many routes where a run out would have been necessary.
Definitely a great addition... I wouldn't use them as a nut replacement, as I don't feel they are as secure as a good ole chock, but they definitely protect when nothing else will, and with a strength rating for their size that puts other pro to shame. Their construction and design seems rock solid, just be extra cognizant of each placement as with any piece... Its usually not the gear that fails, but the rock around it.
Nice and Unique
I bought the 3 smallest sizes for aid climbing and I have not really used them that much. I would not really want to take wippers on the smallest size. They can be tricky to remove if heavily weighted because of the soft material on the "sliding ball". They are obviously great for small cracks and for podded out pin scars. They are definitely not my "go to" piece but a nice addition to a standard free or aid rack.
These are quite possibly one of the coolest things I've ever used. Super easy to place and clean.
Perfect for small cracks where your C3s can't protect you. Easy to place and remove. It's like a camming nut!
stonger alternative
These are great alternatives to pitons and give a greater strength rating over smaller camming devices. I use these a lot. More than I thought I would.

Trango or CAMP. What's the deal with the two manufacturers? CAMP I'm very familiar with. Trango not so much. Are they both manufacturing an identical product (LoweBalls)
Mark, they look a bit different (at least in the photos) and I see the CAMP version appears to have a bit stronger rating..probably in choice of web loops. I think I'll order up some CAMPs/ Thanks

anyone know why the CAMP #1 ballnut is rated for 7kN but the trango #1 ballnut is rated for 4.5kN? Is it really a different manufacturer... they seem identical.
Two possiblities: Wire diameter, being trango decided to use smaller wire thus making a lower rating or trango decided either in testing or for liability reasons that it should be 4.5kN.

Author Notes: It's a balmy June evening, the sun has finally put in an appearance in London, and after a weekend of high-octane eating with my cousin, I'm ready for something light, fresh and seasonal for my supper tonight. Cue sweet fresh peas, tiny broad beans and some ripe goats cheese…. —Sarann
Serves: 2
A small handful of fresh peas
A small handful of shelled and peeled broad beans
2 spring onions, chopped into large chunks
6-8 mint leaves
100 ml of very good vegetable stock
A piece of bread per person – choose your favourite, I used freshly baked granary bread
2 slices of good strong goats cheese
A little olive oil
Salt and pepper to season
Pea shoots or tiny mint leaves to garnish
In This Recipe
- Start by bringing the vegetable stock to the boil. Once it's boiling, add in the peas, broad beans, spring onions and 3/4 of the mint leaves.
- Bring up to boil and then simmer for 2-3 minutes, until tender.
- Remove the goodies from the heat and remove some of the peas and broad beans, you'll use these later for a garnish.
- Now place the remaining contents of the saucepan into a blender. Add the remaining mint leaves and puree until smooth and silky.
- Refrigerate until well chilled.
- On the highest flame, heat a griddle pan on your hob. Whilst this heats, take your choice of bread and brush both sides with a little olive oil.
- Griddle the bread on both sides until char-grilled.
- Remove from the heat and immediately pop on a slice of goats cheese onto your griddled bread. You're not aiming to cook the goats cheese, simply soften and warm it.
- Now dress with some of your chilled puree (make sure the seasoning is correct for your palate first), the peas and broad beans you reserved earlier, a few drops of olive oil and your chosen leaves.
- Tuck in and enjoy!
- This recipe was entered in the contest for Your Best Recipe with Mint

In another thread (http://www.atomicthinktank.com/viewtopic.php?t=18419&highlight=ready) you stated that this is how Readied actions are supposed to work in M&M:
Speedster zooms in, punches a guy, speeds away with move by. Victim readies for speedster to come back in, speedster does. Victim moves to before speedster in initiative order, taking his action, then speedster finishes. Victim is now ahead of speedster in the order.
Doesn't the victim have the same Initiative count as the speedster since he "interrupted" the speedster during the speedster's action on the speedster's Initiative count? According to the RAW, "your initiative result becomes the count on which you took the readied action." Thus, the victim will now act on the same Initiative count as the speedster for the rest of the encounter (beginning the next round) -- but after the speedster, assuming the speedster has a higher Dexterity than the victim, right?
Okay, here's part two of my question:
It's a point of contention between some about what happens with the victim's following actions. Some conclude that the victim interrupts the speedster, then the speedster completes his action, then the victim gets to act AGAIN (!) because the victim is now at the same Initiative count as the speedster, but acting after the speedster due to lower Dexterity.
Is this correct?

Rajkot: Skipper Jaydev Shah led Saurashtra`s impressive batting effort with a fluent 87 before Sheldon Jackson posted an unbeaten half-century to propel the hosts to 274 for five on the first day of their Ranji Trophy semi-final against Punjab.
Opting to bat after winning the toss, the hosts did not have a good start as they lost Sagar Jogiyani (5) early to Siddharth Kaul.
Kaul, who looked impressive with both the new and old ball, struck twice in the morning, removing Jogiyani and Rahul Dave (16).
However, the experienced Sitanshu Kotak and Shah steadied the inning by adding 92 runs for the third wicket.
When it looked like both would have settled down, they threw away their wickets.
Kotak, while trying to cut Harbhajan Singh, failed to judge the bounce and gave a simple catch to Mandeep Singh at first sleep. He made 54 with nine fours.
While Shah failed to clear his lofted shot off Bipul Sharma and was caught by Sandip Sharma at long on. Shah made 87.
The in-form Arpit Vasavada did not last long and was adhudged leg before off Kaul.
Jackson and Makwana then added 45 runs for the unbroken sixth-wicket partnership.
Jackson was lucky when he was on 70 as Harbhajan took a fine catch at first slip off Kaul, but the third umpire called it a no ball.
For Punjab, Kaul was the most successful bowler, taking two wickets for 64 runs, while left-arm spinner Sharma and Harbhajan took a wicket each, conceding 10 and 59 runs, respectively.
Brief Scores: Saurashtra 274 for 5 in 87 overs (Jaydev Shah 87, Sheldon Jackson batting 70, Sitanshu Kotak 54; Siddharth Kaul 2-64, Bipul Sharma 1-10, Taruvar Kohli 1-15, Harbhajan Singh 1-59 against Punjab.

Most people who come to Quel'Danas these days see the sunny location and the numerous dailies to choose from, but it wasn't always the case. Q'D as released was a rainy beachhead that only changed as enough dailies on a server were completed. The Shattered Sun gradually retook the island, more dailies opened up, and skies cleared. It was a great idea in theory, but in practice what happened was that on some servers people were in such a rush to unlock more content that they blew through the daily requirements and unlocked everything in record time.
The next major set of dailies, for the Call of the Crusade patch in Wrath, improved on things a bit by removing the world trigger for a change in the dailies. Instead, the player progression unlocked the next level of dailies, and the player could move at their own pace. The variety of locations you could be sent to was reduced to a more manageable level, with the implication that you could do the dailies and then go about your raiding (or whatever). The trouble was that the same 5-8 quests got monotonous after a short while, and each time you tried to become a champion for another race in your faction you had to go do this all over again.
Blizzard apparently learned from these issues when they designed the dailies for the Firelands, because they brought back the world effect changes, but tried to keep the character oriented approach. Firelands utilizes phasing to separate out the world event changes, from the growth of the tree at Malfurion's Breach to the addition of different quest types in an effort to prevent stagnation. This allows the dailies to take place in a more limited locale, reducing the monotony of travel time and increasing the amount of in-game activity.
Variety? Check.
World altering events? Check.
Small locale? Check.
Time length? Um.....
I've discovered that the Firelands dailies take a lot of time --and I do mean a lot-- when compared to their predecessors. Even though you can one-shot mobs in Quel'Danas, you still take about 10-20 seconds fighting monsters in Firelands on average. You'd also have to consider that Firelands is still active as a quest hub, so there are enough other players there that your way from one location to another isn't hindered by having to mow down excessive mobs. Quel'Danas probably would take about 10 minutes longer if I were at-level, but that still doesn't take as long as the 45 minutes for me to clear all of the Firelands dailies, and I haven't even unlocked everything yet. Blizzard didn't eliminate the time factor, they just tweaked it so that you had to do more dailies at once for fewer days overall.
The current state of dailies rewards persistence, not skill or gear level. While persistence in and of itself isn't a bad thing, too many people who don't value persistence at the level required of the Firelands felt obligated to run those dailies to get the rewards at the end, and people don't like being forced into anything.

Beyonce and Jay Z Visit the Anne Frank House [PHOTOS]
Anyone who has ever been to the Anne Frank House in Amsterdam -- the hiding place where young Anne, her family and their friends lived while hiding from the Nazis during WWII -- knows just how incredibly overpowering and moving the visit can be. While in town for a couple of tour stops, Beyonce and Jay Z recently paid tribute to the courageous young woman and shared their photos from the museum on Instagram.
In the first shot, Beyonce is seen looking at a photo of Anne next to a quote from her diary, which reads, "I'll make my voice heard, I'll go out into the world and work for mankind!" The Instagram snapshot is simply captioned, "Anne Frank House, Amsterdam." (See the photo below.)
In the next picture, Beyonce is crouched down under a wall of photos of Anne, looking at the camera with a somber expression on her face. Check out the picture above.
The Anne Frank House's Facebook page confirmed the singers' visit and posted a picture of Beyonce signing the guestbook.
"American singer Beyoncé and rapper & producer Jay Z visited the Anne Frank House today," the caption reads. "They were more than an hour inside and very impressed by their visit to the hiding place of Anne Frank."
Beyonce and Jay Z's visit comes almost a year after Justin Bieber visited the museum and infamously signed the guestbook saying that he felt that Anne Frank "would've been a Belieber." Though Bieber's comment received a wealth of criticism, his remark actually made sense after visiting the museum. Like Anne's stepsister noted, Anne was a huge fan of popular music and stars of the time, and her room in the annex was filled with posters of pop culture icons.

Updated June 2012 Draft Math
The total bonus pool for the first eleven picks is $11,177,700. With the Rio Ruiz signing - if Keith Law's $1.85m report is correct - brings the total bonuses to $10,235,200.
Aha! But don't forget the three College World Series players who have yet to sign:
2-61 Nolan Fontana
7-219 Preston Tucker
8-249 Tyler Heineman
The amount of bonuses remaining comes to $1,135,900. But, if you add up the "confirmed" bonuses already handed out to the recommended outstanding bonuses, the Astros have overshot their budget by $193,400. A couple of things, though:
1. Preston Tucker ($151,400) is a senior, and could follow Joe Bircher's lead and sign for far under slot.
2. Remember, the Astros can go over their bonus pool by 5% ($558,885), and while they'd have to pay a tax, they would not forfeit any future draft picks.
3. Seeing as how 26th Round pick C.J. Hinojosa is tweeting a photo countdown of how many days before he shows up in Austin to enroll at Texas, you can probably go ahead and write him off.
4. We're going to have to see what tricky math Jeff Luhnow can run to have enough to make a run at Hunter Virant.
6 comments:
Without incurring penalty, the Astros have a hair over $1.6 million available to sign Fontana, Tucker, Heineman and (Virant or Hinojosa). Luhnow seems to be on a roll and he stated after the draft he expected to be able to sign all of the first 11 picks. See no reason to doubt him at this point.
- June 24, 2012 at 10:07 AM
First eleven picks does not include Virant though. McCullers was a supplemental first round pick.
- June 24, 2012 at 10:59 AM
True. The first 11 does not include Virant or Hinojosa.
Houston has signed 4 college players among those top 11. 1 signed for slot and the other 3 were inked for below slot. It seems reasonable to assume among the remaining 3 college players in the top 11 selections to be signed there will be some money saved.
My guess is they will have ~$800-900K to tempt Virant and that's roughly equal to the slot money available in the area of where he was expected to be drafted. Doesn't mean he will sign, of course.
- June 24, 2012 at 12:38 PM
- Reuben said...
What about Traver? I got the sense he would need the least $ out of the Virant/Hinojosa/Traver HS trio; perhaps if they don't end up with quite enough for Virant they can still get him.
- June 24, 2012 at 6:03 PM
Everything I've read is that Traver is considered a much harder sign than Virant.

British Go Journal No. 62. July 1984. Page 21.
Ian Meiklejohn
The following vigorous struggle was played during the Cheshire tournament between two evenly matched 3 kyus. The comments (by Ian Meiklejohn) are aimed mainly at demonstrating the value of doing the simple things well, and in particular, of maintaining an awareness of the overall position during local fights.
Black: Eddie Smithers, 3k
White: Tony Atkins, 3k
(Note: The names were incorrectly reported the other way round in BGJ 62.)
The game-file in SGF format.
Figure 1 (1-53)
Figure 2a (55-100)
BGJ had Fig 2a and 2b as one diagram, Fig 2.
Figure 2b (101-137)
BGJ had Fig 2a and 2b as one diagram, Fig 2.
In the sequence to 137, at which point the score tantalisingly ends, white kills black's corner (for the time being), a success which should be enough to win comfortably.
However, not surprisingly, since both players are amateurs, the fight in the corner was not decisive, and in the end White won by just 3 points.
An entertaining and instructive tussle.

November Real Estate News
Las Vegas Real Estate Market Stabilizes in 3rd Quarter
THE BOTTOM LINE… The housing market remains a hot topic for those who analyze the Las Vegas economy and are keeping a close eye on its pace of recovery. Nevada has gone from the fastest appreciating housing market in the United States, to the fastest depreciating market in the United States, only to come full circle in 2013 and once again post nation-leading price gains. For some, the recent spike in pricing is merely a rebound from the market's overcorrection that pushed the median resale down to $100,000 in January 2012. For others, the recent price gains reflect overly aggressive residential investment, gobbling up inventory, driving up prices and creating a whole new housing bubble that threatens to burst as soon as investors start looking for an exit strategy.

Las Vegas Tops U.S. in Short Sales, Bank-Owned Sales
LAS VEGAS — Las Vegas led the nation's large metropolitan areas in September in both residential short sales and sales of bank-owned homes, RealtyTrac reported Wednesday night. RealtyTrac found that 34 percent of last month's residential transactions in Las Vegas involved short sales and 21 percent represented bank-owned sales. The real estate analytics company from Irvine, Calif., also placed Las Vegas second with 27 percent of the purchases coming from institutional investors, and tied for second with 62 percent of the sales representing all-cash transactions. Read More Seven Hills Homes for Sale
Las Vegas Ranks Third in Flipping
The Las Vegas metropolitan area produced the nation's third largest volume of flipped single-family homes in the third quarter of 2013, RealtyTrac.com reported Wednesday night. There were 780 such residences in Southern Nevada that were purchased and subsequently resold within six months, fitting the definition of flipping as used by the real estate analytics company from Irvine, Calif. That volume was 15 percent below the second quarter of this year but 9 percent higher than the third quarter of 2012. The average purchase price of those homes was $144,197 and the average resale price was $190,910, contributing to average gross profits of $53,503 per residence for the flippers. Read more
In Recovering Housing Market, Cash is Still King
Money talks, but cash shouts in the real estate market. An unprecedented number of home buyers in the Twin Cities and beyond are forgoing a mortgage. Nearly half of all U.S. buyers during September paid cash, compared with 30 percent last year, according to RealtyTrac. "Cash is king," said Dave Delgado, co-owner of a Twin Cities medical supply company, who recently paid cash for a couple of suburban rental houses."It's hard to say how the stock market will do, so we feel more confident and comfortable in the real estate market." Delgado and other investors are spending billions on real estate, signaling a deepening confidence in the Twin Cities housing recovery and a steadfast belief that demand for rentals will remain strong. For Delgado, purchasing real estate with cash also helps to diversify his investment portfolio. Read more
Bascom Group Buys First Local Apartment Complex
A California private-equity firm has invested in its first local apartment complex. The Bascom Group of Irvine, Calif., bought Broadstone Montecito, a 336-unit, Class A community at 9745 Grand Teton Drive, for $36.6 million. "We are excited to be extending our presence into Southern Nevada," Bascom principal Scott McClave said. "Montecito represents a great opportunity to purchase a well-built, high-quality property in the trough of a rebounding market. Market fundamentals will continue to improve dramatically in the Las Vegas market and we look forward to creating a place our residents can call home." Read more

Forget about rock 'n' roll: When rats are administered the highly addictive stimulant methamphetamine and allowed to engage in sexual behavior while high, all they want is more of both. That's the raw finding of a study published Tuesday by the Journal of Neuroscience.
It's important because many who use methamphetamine report that it enhances their sexual experience. But because it also reduces their inhibitions, those abusers are more likely to engage in risky sexual behavior, including unprotected sex and anal intercourse. The result: HIV transmission appears to be far more likely among methamphetamine users than it is among those who do not take the drug.
A recent report found methamphetamine use to remain far higher in the Western states than elsewhere in the United States.
The article in the Journal of Neuroscience sheds light on the circumstances under which drug-seeking and sex-seeking behavior become fused. Specifically, it finds that when rats are introduced to methamphetamine and sexual behavior concurrently, they go on -- weeks later -- to seek sex even when doing so results in the rat equivalent of nausea. And they return again and again to the place where they got their first taste of the drug in a bid to get some more.
Off of methamphetamine, the addicted male rats were actually pretty unmotivated by the prospect of sex with a receptive female. When there was no shot of methamphetamine involved, they were a lot less keen to mate than were rats that got the placebo shots of saline instead.
But once amped on meth, the rats that had been conditioned to link the two wanted both, and their behavior suggested compulsion in going after each.
High doses of meth were not necessary to induce the compulsive drug-seeking and sex-seeking behavior. When researchers injected rats with a relatively low dose and allowed them to mate with receptive females, their subsequent behavior suggested a more potent drive toward sex and drugs than among rats who steadily got a higher dose.
Since methamphetamine gained widespread use in the 1990s, researchers have puzzled over what it was about the drug that made users so vulnerable to sexually transmitted diseases. Maybe, some speculated, it was that those with a propensity to risk-taking -- including risky sexual behavior -- were more likely to try meth.
The authors of the current study -- from the University of Ontario and the University of Michigan at Ann Arbor -- cite earlier research as well as this study to suggest that methamphetamine paves the way for risk-taking behavior by revving up brain regions involved in reward-seeking and suppressing activity in brain regions that would normally apply the brakes in the face of risky behavior.
Forget about rock 'n' roll: When rats are administered the highly addictive stimulant methamphetamine and allowed to engage in sexual behavior while high, all they want is more of both. That's the raw finding of a study published Tuesday by the Journal of Neuroscience.

Banking Regulators Water Down Liquidity Plans
The Basel III accord on bank liquidity has been watered down by regulators after two years of pressure from the banking community. WSJ's David Enrich and Dow Jones's Geoffrey Smith look at what this means for the global recovery, bank regulators and the banks themselves. Photo: BIS

PR2 Arm and Phasespace demo
I asked Vijay and Wim Thursday night if they could put together a quick demo to shoot for the Web site. By Friday morning they had thrown together an arm controller, a head controller, and data from the Phasespace motion capture system to come up with a new teleoperation system for the robot. We normally use a spaceball to control the arm's movements, but the Phasespace system has more possibilities for fine-grained control of the arm's many degrees of freedom. As you'll see in the video, Wim is able to wave around an object with optical markers to control the position of the arm and grab objects. Using our transform library tf, the head is able to track the position of the gripper as it moves around.
This video is a farewell for the arm -- in the hopes of getting good data for future versions, we've scheduled it for 'destructive' testing this week. We have several arms coming online this week to replace it, so the destruction will be productive and fun.

Wall Street is looking for the Federal Reserve to buy a total of $1.25 trillion of assets under its latest debt purchase program intended to stimulate the economy, according to a Reuters poll conducted on Friday.
The median of forecasts from economists at 15 U.S. primary dealers - the large financial institutions that deal directly with the Fed - was for the central bank to buy $1.25 trillion of assets, which was up from a median of $1 trillion in a similar poll conducted on March 8.
Continue Reading Below
The forecasts for the size of Fed purchases in the latest round of stimulus mostly ranged from $885 billion to $1.6 trillion.
The Fed bought a total of $2.3 trillion in mortgage and government debt in two prior rounds of quantitative easing in the wake of the financial crisis that hit in 2007.
Eleven of the 15 dealers expect the Fed to continue the latest stimulus program, known as QE3, into 2014, while four expect the Fed to end the program late this year.
In the March poll, nine of 15 dealers said the Fed would continue asset purchases into 2014.
All 15 of the primary dealers said the Fed would taper the size of its asset purchases before terminating them. Currently, the Fed is buying $85 billion per month of mortgage-backed securities and Treasuries and has said the duration of the purchase program is open-ended.
Earlier in the week, at the conclusion of a two-day policy meeting, the Fed said it will increase or decrease the pace of its purchases as the outlook changes for the labor market and inflation.
While all of the primary dealer economists who responded to the poll said they eventually expect the Fed to reduce the size of its monthly buying, several said it would take some very noticeable slowing in economic growth to spur the central bank to move to increase the size of purchases.
"The bar for expanding is high," said Julia Coronado, chief North American economist at BNP Paribas in New York. "To do more, the economy would really have to be in a dire situation."
The Fed reiterated this week that it intends to hold interest rates at the current ultra-low level near zero, while the unemployment rate remains above 6.5 percent, as long inflation expectations do not flare up.
Of the 15 primary dealers who answered the poll, nine expect U.S. unemployment to dip to the Fed's target of 6.5 percent in 2015, while six expect it to reach that level in 2014. In the March poll, 13 expected unemployment to dip to that level in 2015, while two said that level would be reached in the fourth quarter of 2014.
The poll was conducted on Friday after the government released data showing U.S. employers added a larger-than-expected 165,000 workers to their payrolls in April and the jobless rate fell to the lowest since December 2008 at 7.5 percent.
While the payrolls data showed more jobs were added than expected and included upward revisions to the previous two months of payrolls additions, they likely had little impact on expectations for Fed policy, said Tom Simons, an economist at Jefferies & Co in New York.
"The Fed will want to see a sustained improvement in the outlook for the labor market before making adjustments to policy," Simons said. "Given the significant volatility in recent months, we highly doubt that the Fed will be quick to adjust their outlook.
"Also, the recent decline in the inflation data suggests that the Fed will continue to be accommodative even as the labor market continues to heal," he added.
There are 21 U.S. primary dealers and not all of them responded to the Reuters poll.

Wide receiver Hakeem Nicks spent long stretches of this season looking like he wasn't interested in helping the Giants offense all that much, but he said Friday that the Giants know he's hopeful he can return to the team in 2014.
Nicks is set to become a free agent when the season officially comes to an end and said that he expects contract talks to start between the team and his representatives next week. When those talks start, Nicks said that his decision will be "bigger" than just the amount of money on the table.
"Players, coaches, the organization," Nicks said, via the Newark Star-Ledger. "That's just something I want to make sure I look at. I don't want to get myself in a situation where there's a lot going on. This organization is great stability wise. You don't want too many changes going on here. I like how they're always looking out for a player's best interest and things like that."
Nicks didn't balk when asked about the possibility of the Giants using the franchise tag on him, which isn't particularly surprising. The tag offers wideouts a one-year salary of more than $10 million, which is likely more than Nicks can hope to receive coming off a disappointing season.
Nicks hasn't scored a touchdown and has caught just one pass in the red zone all year for a dysfunctional Giants offense. That's not what anyone is looking for in a No. 1 receiver, so Nicks will be selling himself at a lower level than many anticipated heading into the season. His no-show this season may leave the Giants less interested in another year together, although the detriment Nicks did to his price tag this year could change the equation a bit.

It was a hot and muggy Tuesday evening in Ontario, Canada's "Greenbelt"—a 1.8 million acre patch of protected fertile farmland. The Greenbelt is home to about 7,000 farms, most family owned and operated. The HHH farm is one of them. Named after the three Harley brothers—Peter, Bob and Terry Harley—the Harley' farm is the clubhouse of "The Sportsman's Club," a long-established fishing club composed of family and old friends.
The Dinner Belles usually rehearse, write, and perform in the farm's barn. It's covered with antiques and unusual items, from the farm and expeditions to all points throughout Ontario. Road signs, bunches of bird decoys, photographs, bits of fishing tackle, a handsome set of spats, a WWI army helmet, and even an old, weathered and wooden 1910 tombstone for a child so long gone it no longer bears his name, adorn the walls. This home away from home, for so many, was the natural choice to film the band.
We started in the barn. We lit candles and lanterns—with a fire extinguisher close at hand, of course. The band set up much like they always do. The Belles often feel more like family than friends. This feeling grew with the presence of lovely 2 year-old Kennedy Sharon Bell, the daughter of bassist/singer/songwriter Scott Bell, and a fixture at most Dinner Belles' gatherings; she's practically a junior member of the band. She sings along (often in key), dances, and applauds at the end of a song. There wasn't even a hint that she was in the way. She belonged as much as anyone else.
After filming in the barn, we made our way into the house—a water-damaged hodgepodge of random renovations and repairs, plastered with pictures, promotional posters and calendars of years past. It also houses a collection of stuffed wildlife, including a very large, Canadian Black Bear, which caused singer/songwriter Terra Lightfoot to scream and coin the phrase, "Dinner Bears." She wasn't the only one screaming; Kennedy Bell also found the bear scary, occasionally shrieking, "a bear!" Once again, the band gathered around like they always do, with Kennedy right there with them. The farm is a family affair, and I'm glad to have been part of it.
— Jonathan Ely Cass
A sweet collective of more like minded folks couldn't have better planned this band & album. The Dinner Belles are a Hamilton super group of sorts that all hang up their heavy rock'n'roll, pop, synth hats from their other bands for straw ones. The girls dawn summer dresses, the boys put on their boots and plaid shirts and together accurately… Continue reading

Apples and Pears - Mug Hugger
Knitted this pattern? Upload a picture to PLANET WHODUNNKNIT and show it off to the world.
Your mug is your key to office relaxation: an excuse to stop pretending to work and indulge in a nice cuppa. At all costs you must keep your mug from the sticky stealing mitts of those who can't be bothered to wash their own. You could purchase a cup-sized Chihuahua to sit in your mug and growl menacingly, or you could knit yourself a territorial Mug Hugger.
Apples and Pears is one of six cockney rhyming slang Mug Hugger patterns in the Stitch London book. Apples and Pears = Stairs.
All change: You can mug hug pretty much anything: vases, pencil pots and beer bottles, lamp posts, loo rolls, jam jars, those street performers who stand still for hours, or pirate's wooden legs. Add stitches to the length or width of the pattern to mug hug all kinds of things. Gift wrap a wine bottle as a gorilla, pretty a plant pot as a giant panda, or cosy London's Gherkin building as a great white shark (that last one may take a while and you're going to need bigger needles).

LANSING, Mich. The Republican-led Michigan House has approved a right-to-work bill limiting unions' strength.
The measure approved Tuesday morning deals with public-sector workers. Another bill focusing on the private sector was approved last week, when the Senate passed both bills.
When final versions have cleared the House, they'll go to GOP Gov. Rick Snyder for his expected signature as early as Wednesday.
Passage followed numerous challenges and changes sought by Democrats as well as raucous protests inside and outside the Capitol from pro-union demonstrators.
Thousands descended upon downtown Lansing to rally against the legislation that prohibits requiring nonunion employees to financially support unions at their workplace.
Backers contend a right-to-work law would deliver more jobs to Michigan and give workers freedom, while critics say it would drive down wages and benefits.
Read tomorrow's Arkansas Democrat-Gazette for full details.

Herman Student Life Complex
The $8.7 million Herman Student Life Complex tripled the size of the academic space available for Husker student-athletes by using the previous space known as the Hewit Center and the space previously occupied by the West Stadium Strength Complex.
The Herman Student Life Complex consists of six sections, including the Hewit Academic Center, the Abbott Life Skills Center, the D.J. Sokol Enrichment Center, the Scott Technology Center, the Papik Compliance Center adn the Lewis Training Table.
Since the area was built in 1985, the number of Husker student-athletes across all sports has increased from approximately 400 to nearly 600, creating the need for expansion in size and services.
Former Athletic Director Tom Osborne's vision was to serve student-athletes more effectively with academic counselors and supervisors as well as expand the Huskers' award-winning Life Skills program.
The Herman Student Life Complex welcomes student-athletes and staff with an impressive entrance, and designated space for Academics, Life Skills, Enrichment, Technology, Compliance, and the Training Table.
As part of the $8.7 million renovation of the West Stadium, $1.8 million was designated for updating Nebraska's historical displays in Memorial Stadium. These updates enhance the game day environment for fans at Memorial Stadium and assist the Huskers' recruiting efforts for future student-athletes.
The Herman Student Life Complex offers Husker student-athletes a shining example of Nebraska's commitment to success in academics, athletics and life.
Nebraska Student-Athlete Achievements
- Nation-leading 333 Academic All-Americans
- Nation-leading 17 NCAA Today's Top Ten Award winners
- Award-winning Life Skills program reaches more than 150,000 youth in Nebraska each year
Impact of Nebraska's Student Life Programs
"The University of Nebraska has an incredible capacity to not only provide the highest quality of education and athletics but to also give the utmost support for each individual to seek endless opportunities in their future careers."
Richelle Simpson, Women's Gymnastics
"Nebraska's academic and life skills services are genuine. It's not a cookie-cutter type situation. It's customized for the individual, and I think that's what sets Nebraska apart from everybody else."
Mike Minter, Football
"The University of Nebraska staff encouraged my development as an athlete and as a person. They helped me to be creative, manage my time and build my character, poise and beliefs."
Will Shields, Football
"I think it is instrumental that current student-athletes have a chance to see the influence that the University of Nebraska can have on their careers. When I was a player, a lot of people came to speak to us, and I always thought it was good to see how they were succeeding in their lives after sports."
Karen Jennings, Women's Basketball
"I always wanted to make sure that when I play my last down of football, I have something to fall back on. So, I focused on my studies to ensure that I'll be successful no matter what I do."
Kyle Vanden Bosch, Football

Linux Remote Networking over the Internet (part 3)
Guarding the Gates
In part 1 and part 2 we learned some nifty OpenSSH tips and tricks for file sharing and remote access on the LAN. The same techniques also work over the the Internet, but you must take some extra security precautions. It is necessary to lock down the OpenSSH server more tightly, get through your firewall without opening your LAN to the world, and decide if you want password authentication or certificate authentication.
Hardening the OpenSSH Server for Password LoginsThis is easy, just changing a few lines in /etc/ssh/sshd_config:
Port 2022 PermitRootLogin no AllowUsers [usernames or groups separated by spaces] ListenAddress 192.168.1.1 ClientAliveInterval 3600Remember to restart sshd whenever you change the configuration file. Specifying an alternate port reduces brute-force login attempts by a lot. Yes, everyone knows that this option is available, and no, it wouldn't be very hard to script brute-force attacks to scan for the open SSH port. But they don't, and a side benefit is it cuts down the clutter considerably in your logfiles. You must select an unused port, which you can find in /etc/services. Be sure to enter your alternate SSHD port in this file so you don't forget.
Never ever permit a root login over the Internet. If you need root privileges, log in as an ordinary user and then su or sudo after logging in. (In the next installment in this series I'll show you how to restrict sudo to specific commands.)
AllowUsers can apply various restrictions. These need to be system users or groups. A useful trick is to set up special remote administration accounts such as web-admin, backup-admin, and so on. Combine these with restricted sudo and you can keep your remote users corraled, if you need to.
AllowUsers looks like these examples:
AllowUsers web-admin backup-admin carla jeffrey AllowUsers firstname.lastname@example.com jeffrey@*.domain.net AllowUsers admin-group AllowUsers Host *.domain.netExcept in your real configuration all of your allowed users or groups will be all on one line, space-separated. The first line is a list of usernames. The second line shows how to restrict allowed users to log in only from a specified IP address or domain. The third line allows only members of admin-group; using groups can be a nice time-saver. The last line allows any user logging in from a particular domain. AllowUsers is strict and specific-- it only allows the users that are named, so if you leave anyone out they're locked out.
The DenyUsers directive works the same way, except it locks the specified users or groups out and lets everyone else in.
ListenAddress is for machines with more than one network interface, so you can restrict it to listen only to one or to certain ones.
ClientAliveInterval is a timeout setting; it specifies in seconds how long the remote client connection can remain idle. If the limit is reached the connection is closed.
