Trail running is unlike regular running because you can never establish a rhythm. You can never establish a stride.
You have to watch every single step so you don't land on a rock or a root or a hole. That route was more like an obstacle course than a race. In places, it was more like bushwhacking than running. The river crossing was only knee high. It's a goddamned miracle I didn't break a leg.

It is amazing; when I was a kid I could do sit-ups all day long. I'd rip off 100 without even stopping to think about it; other people were impressed— I was merely surprised that they were impressed. Today..., it's a little bit of a struggle to do 75 crunches with 10 pounds sitting on my chest. When on the elliptical, I inevitably end up reflecting on the fact that no matter how fast I go I'm still going to end up spending a fixed amount of time in hell— that contrasts with running where I always console myself with the thought that the faster I run, the sooner it's over. At least the rowing machine enables that incentive.

It happened on Saturday. I sat down at a table and struck up a conversation with a fellow. I don't know why I did it; I didn't know a lot of people at the reception. His appearance was a little yucky— the hair and complexion a bit greasy, body a bit on the pudgy side, beglassed. It turned out he was an attorney who, following a ten year hiatus at a "health care consulting" firm had returned to the FDA where he was originally employed as a self-described "political appointee during the Clinton Administration." A native of Brooklyn, N.Y. he had attended law school in the Washington, D.C. shithole and (like so many others) had never gone back where he came from.

His field was tobacco and he had obviously been employed by the Clinton FDA to find a way to impose prohibition without actually calling it prohibition. Naturally, this pinguid and oleaginous fellow sees himself as a crusader and "world saver" whose mission in life is to save people from themselves. I rather doubt that it ever crosses his mind that he's in the business of harassing people, destroying jobs, creating black markets, encouraging criminality and restricting other people's freedom. In other words, he is a scoundrel.

A person like that is a born regulator and a latent dictator. He is completely oblivious to the concept that he and those like him are the reason lots of people won't start small businesses and won't expose capital to the risk of expropriation by a little shit bureaucrat paper-shuffler. It's beyond his comprehension; he doesn't get it and he never will. Now, after ten years as a "Beltway bandit" he's returning to the government uterus that spawned him. He's chomping at the bit for the opportunity to regulate e-cigarettes.

In the last fifty years, the population of D.C. has exploded with people like him. They come to feed at the trough of Big Government and they never go back where they came from. It wasn't that long ago that the region had a healthy mix of agriculture and manufacturing. Big Government has wrecked the whole region with massive over-development, urban sprawl, political sclerosis and nightmarish congestion.

That fellow represented everything that's wrong.

The sense of self-importance and entitlement was palpable and disgusting.

The South's Revenge

The world savers and do-gooders claimed they waged war to free the slaves and preserve the Union.

They got what they wanted. They got Detroit. They got Ferguson. They got Chicago. They got Cleveland. They got Baltimore. They got Philadelphia. They got Southeast (D.C.). They got Prince Georges County. They got Bridgeport. They got the south Bronx. They got Pittsburgh.

Where are John Brown and William Lloyd Garrison to witness their handiwork now ? Where's Horace Greeley and the rest of those who incited others to this end ?

______________________________

Gladwell doesn't understand what he's talking about or this report is so poorly written that the underlying issue has been obscured. Fleischer (as a lawyer and professor) is, of course, clueless from the git-go.

The report, itself, is awful. It doesn't explain that the fundamental issue is one related to investment management fees and sustainable spending rates from a tax-exempt entity (in this case, university endowments).

"Alternative investments" (such as hedge funds, real estate, venture capital, oil & gas, timber, distressed assets) have been marketed by their promoters as providing returns exceeding those available from traditional investment vehicles (i.e., stocks).

The sponsors/promoters/principals of these alternative investments typically collect fees that are very substantially higher than those of traditional investment managers ( a standard arrangement is 2% of assets PLUS 20% of profits). That compares to fees for a manager of traditional investments that would normally range from 0.05% to 0.5% of assets.

There is substantial evidence that the extremely high fees charged by managers of "alternative investments" (especially the hedgies and the VCs) are not commensurate with actual investment results (and are, thus, unwarranted and unjustifiable).

As stated below, vast over-investment in "alternative investments" by university endowment funds has been driven by a tremendous amount of corruption and self-dealing on the part of university administrators, investment officers, consultants and trustees.

There's been far too much "you scratch my back, I'll scratch your back."

The 2+20 crowd has the ethics of ladies of the night— the same is true of the investment consultants whose evaluations and reports are (unfortunately) heavily relied upon by gullible university administrators, investment officers, trustees and overseers (who don't understand this stuff in the first place).

As further stated below, the hedgies are wildly overpaid and their track record falls far short of the highly exaggerated and promoted (double entendre intended) returns.

University trustees and overseers have been duped by promoters and consultants. There's a sickening amount of self-dealing involved (in far too many instances, the 2+20 crowd have bought their places on boards where they direct endowment funds into— you guessed it— alternative investments).

Apple Could Swallow Whole Russian Stock Market

Apple Could Swallow Whole Russian Stock Market
By Srinivasan Sivabalan - Nov 13, 2014

If you owned Apple Inc., and sold it, you could purchase the entire stock market of Russia, and still have enough change to buy every Russian an iPhone 6 Plus.

The CHART OF THE DAY shows the total market capitalization of all public companies in the world’s largest country slipped below that of the world’s most-valued company for the first time on record. The gap, at $121 billion on Nov. 12, is about the price of 143 million contract-free 64-gigabyte iPhones, based on Apple Store prices.

The value of Russian equities has slumped $234 billion to $531 billion this year, while Apple gained $147 billion to $652 billion, according to data compiled by Bloomberg. The technology company’s innovation and brand value attract investors, while Russia’s political conflicts, sanctions and the threat of economic stagnation next year make them nervous, according to Vadim Bit-Avragim, a portfolio manager who helps oversee about $4 billion at Kapital Asset Management LLC in Moscow.

“Apple works with shareholders to maximize returns and is based where property is protected by law,” Bit-Avragim said. “In Russia, the legislative protection for property is not as good, most state-run companies have poor corporate governance, resources are concentrated in state hands and borrowing costs are shooting up. After all this, when you get involved in conflicts with your neighbors, it becomes very hard to persuade investors from all over the world to invest here.”

Russia faces a 70 percent chance of recession in the next 12 months, economists surveyed by Bloomberg project. The country is buckling under sanctions punishing its involvement in Ukraine, while a plunging ruble stokes inflation and the sinking oil price erodes export revenue.

Russia, the 20th largest among the world’s major markets, is not the only one Apple has surpassed. The company, which forecasts a record holiday-sales quarter and has $155 billion in cash, is also bigger than 17th-ranked Singapore and 18th-ranked Italy.

This is what the dumbass Klimate Krazies have done in Europe.

They've raised everybody's energy prices, screwed their economies and haven't reduced greenhouse gas emissions by one iota. The whole thing has been a giant boondoggle.

Nassim Nicholas Taleb and Gregory F. Treverton "The Calm Before The Storm"

http://www.foreignaffairs.com/artic...regory-f-treverton /the-calm-before-the-storm

The first marker of a fragile state is a concentrated decision-making system.
The second soft spot is the absence of economic diversity.
The third source of fragility is being highly indebted and highly leveraged.
The fourth source of fragility... is a lack of political variability.
The fifth marker of fragility... is the lack of a record of surviving big shocks.

Number of U.S. Citizens Renouncing Citizenship Reaches Record High

(Bloomberg) -- The number of Americans renouncing U.S. citizenship increased 37 percent in the three months through December and the annual total reached a record level, data published Tuesday showed.

The trend likely is accelerating because of a 2010 law that gives the Internal Revenue Service unprecedented access to U.S. citizens’ foreign bank accounts, said Stephen Flott, an attorney at Flott & Co. P.C. in Arlington, Virginia, whose clients include expatriates. The U.S. is the only country within the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development that taxes citizens wherever they reside.

“If they have no real desire to work or live here, then the question for them is: What’s the point?” Flott said. “For those who feel no real affinity to the U.S., it’s a no-brainer.”

People giving up their nationality at U.S. embassies rose to 1,062 in the fourth quarter from 776 in the year-earlier period, according to Federal Register data. That’s the highest quarterly total since the second quarter of 2013, according to Bloomberg News calculations based on records starting in 1998.

The annual total reached 3,415 in 2014, from 3,000 in the year-earlier period, according to Federal Register data. The five highest totals have been recorded since the U.S. Congress passed the 2010 law.

There are an estimated 6 million U.S. citizens living abroad. More than 10,000 Americans living overseas have given up their passports over the past five years.

Tax Cheats

The U.S. has increased efforts to catch tax cheats after UBS AG paid a $780 million penalty in 2009 and handed over data on about 4,700 accounts. That has led some banks to forgo doing business with people who have ties to the U.S.

One of the primary U.S. moves took effect last year as asset-disclosure rules under the Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act kicked in. The measure, known as Fatca, requires U.S. financial institutions to impose a 30 percent withholding tax on payments made to foreign banks that don’t agree to identify and provide information on U.S. account holders.

It allows the U.S. to scoop up data from more than 77,000 institutions and 80 governments about its citizens’ overseas financial activities.

In establishing the 2010 Fatca law, Congress and President Barack Obama in effect threatened to cut off banks and other companies from easy access to the U.S. market if they didn’t pass along such information. It was projected to generate $8.7 billion over 10 years, according to the congressional Joint Committee on Taxation.

Reporting Requirements

The reporting requirements under Fatca and foreign banks’ actions to avoid penalties made many people aware of U.S. tax obligations they didn’t know they had, Flott said.

“They wake up one morning and learn about citizenship taxation and birthright citizenship and the two together create for some people a real problem,” he said.

Obama this month proposed making it easier for those who the U.S. considers “accidental” citizens to stay out of the U.S. tax system. What the administration refers to as accidental citizens include people born in the U.S. while their parents were visiting the country from abroad or individuals whose only connection is a parent who was a U.S. citizen.

Under the proposal, such people would have to give up their citizenship in 2016 or 2017 and make sure they had complied for the past five years with federal tax laws that would have applied if they were U.S. nonresidents.

Special Rules

The special rules exempt those people from U.S. taxes and from the mark-to-market tax imposed when people expatriate, which taxes people as if they sold their assets before turning in their passports.

The Obama administration proposals would be available only to dual citizens who haven’t lived in the U.S. since age 18 1/2 and haven’t had a U.S. passport -- except for one they used to leave the U.S.

The proposal was part of Obama’s 2016 budget plan and any changes would likely have to be passed by Congress.

Germany Buys Most Russian Coal Since 2006
ht tp://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2015-02-13/germany-buys-most-russian-coal-since-2006-amid-eu-diversity-push

(Bloomberg) -- Germany imported the most coal from Russia in at least nine years, just as the European Union is trying to reduce its reliance on energy supplies from the former Soviet state.

Russian coal imports rose 6.6 percent to 12.6 million metric tons last year, according to data from the Federal Statistics Office in Wiesbaden, Germany. That’s more than a quarter of all foreign purchases. Total imports into Europe’s biggest economy also rose to their highest level since 2006.

The EU is seeking to diversify energy supplies away from Russia, which supplies a third of the region’s natural gas, as relations have deteriorated amid the conflict in Ukraine. As coal is traded in dollars, Russian producers can offer lower prices after the ruble fell 62 percent against the dollar and crude oil dropped 40 percent from October through January.

“The devaluation of the ruble and the decline in oil prices have placed Russian thermal coal exporters among the most competitive suppliers to both Atlantic and Pacific markets,” Diana Bacila, an analyst in Oslo at Nena AS, said Feb. 10 by e-mail. “Europe could replace those volumes from Colombia, South Africa, the U.S., Australia and Indonesia, but it would also have to pay higher prices.”

Fuel to operate equipment at mines can represent as much as 40 percent of costs, according to Nena.

Europe is seeking to diversify its primary energy supplies to avoid depending too much on any single source, German Chancellor Angela Merkel said Feb. 2 in Budapest. European nations are also investing in liquefied natural gas import terminals to reduce their dependency on Russian gas.

Russian Gas

Russia also supplied 46 percent of Germany’s natural gas in 2013, the latest data available, according to Eurogas, a Brussels-based lobby group.

Total German imports of hard coal rose last year, even as the fuel’s share in the power mix fell to the lowest level since at least 1990, according to AG Energiebilanzen c.V., a group of German energy lobbies and economic research institutes.

Power generated by hard coal dropped 0.4 percent to 96.9 terawatt-hours in 2014, the data show.

German purchases of all foreign coal climbed 2.1 percent to 46 million tons last year, according to the Statistics Office. Imports from South Africa almost doubled to 6.1 million tons, or the most since 2008. Shipments from Colombia slid 27 percent to 5.9 million tons.

Last fall, State's Attorney Marilyn Mosby defeated an experienced and effective incumbent State's Attorney.

The Mayor and State's Attorney Marilyn Mosby of Baltimore are getting a harsh lesson in what happens when you start punishing the Police Department. A lesson they should have learned from what happened to de Blasio up in NYC. de Blasio was at least smart enough to regroup before it got out of hand like it is in Baltimore.

The police have all but stopped policing in the more lawless areas of the city and the crime rate reflects it.

The theory behind caving to the demands of the ignorant masses in the combat zone(s) and the wholesale charging of the cops with murder (charges that most legal experts say won't survive a trial) was to placate the ignorant mobs. With the charging and arrests of those officers all of the problems were to go away. Obviously neither the Mayor nor the DA are very well versed in history, recent or otherwise.

It's interesting to observe that the ignorant mobs haven't learned a thing either. They're all carping about the sharp increase in the crime rate but still interfere with the officers that try to do their duty. Apparently it has escaped their notice that the one is explicitly tied to the other. The more lawless the area the more aggressive the policing required to maintain some semblance of order.

Where is Al Sharpton? Where is Jesse Jackson?

It is amazing; when I was a kid I could do sit-ups all day long. I'd rip off 100 without even stopping to think about it; other people were impressed— I was merely surprised that they were impressed. Today..., it's a little bit of a struggle to do 75 crunches with 10 pounds sitting on my chest. When on the elliptical, I inevitably end up reflecting on the fact that no matter how fast I go I'm still going to end up spending a fixed amount of time in hell— that contrasts with running where I always console myself with the thought that the faster I run, the sooner it's over. At least the rowing machine enables that incentive.

The Mistake On The Potomac (a/k/a "Cancer On The Potomac") is a suppurating abscess that has wrecked the environment of the entire region. What used to be some of the world's most gorgeous countryside has become an urban hellhole— a gigantic concrete and asphalt pad to accommodate the cancerous urban sprawl.

What caused it? Big Government. Hordes of immigrants descended on what was once a backwater where no self-respecting, educated person would want to live. They came to feed on the Big Government teat.

Please move the whole mess somewhere else. Coeur d'Alene or Kalispell or Pottawottamie would be a great place to relocate all the lobbyists, whackos, whingers, grifters, lawyers, bureaucrats, journos, political junkies, world-savers, staffers and pols.

Fuck D.C.

It's a hellhole.

I hate that goddamned place. It's destroyed the Chesapeake Bay and the whole region. It's wrecked NoVa. It's cancerous. Now it's fucking up Gainesville, Warrenton and Fredericksburg. The whole thing is a stinking, pustulant, suppurating abscess.

This used to be a nice place to live. Now it feels like New Jersey. It's horrible.

Send all of 'em back to wherever they came from.

How have you and Vanguard maintained such a good relationship for 30 years?

Mr. Barrow: Well, I can recall a time in 2000, first quarter 2000, where value managers and the markets had been all about growth; and a bubble was all around us, and we knew the bubble was all around us, and we were lagging in the market. I had been up here and visited, and I got a phone call from Vanguard; and they said, "We believe in what you're doing. Hang in there." And we beat the market 20% [actually 24%] that year because everything that was going on, all of a sudden, reversed itself.

I never learned how to look someone straight in the eye and lie. I am simply incapable of doing it.

“Earl likes to cut them down to size before they get too big and fresh,” Tom Sancton said. “You heard what he did to the fellow from Alexandria who got a big retainer from the theatre owners to try to remove a two-per-cent tax on movie admissions? The fellow went to see Earl before the last campaign and came back and told his clients that it was in the bag. Then he went out and worked like a dog for Earl—speaking on television and radio, and stumping and conspiring and kissing babies and hustling votes—until Earl was elected Governor. One of the first things Earl did in the new legislature was to oppose removal of the tax. The fellow from Alexandria went to see him—he was afraid he would have to refund his fee, or the theatre owners would shoot him—and he said, ‘I told my clients that you said you wanted their support and that you wouldn’t block removal of the tax. What do I tell them now? ’ You know what old Earl said? He said, ‘I’ll tell you what to tell them. Tell them I lied.’ ”

“Why did he do that?” I asked. “Did somebody induce him to keep the tax on the movies?”

“Hell, no,” said Tom. “He just didn’t want the other fellow’s clients to think the other fellow was that strong. He likes them to come straight to Uncle Earl.”

__________________________
It is amazing; when I was a kid I could do sit-ups all day long. I'd rip off 100 without even stopping to think about it; other people were impressed— I was merely surprised that they were impressed. Today..., it's a little bit of a struggle to do 75 crunches with 10 pounds sitting on my chest. When on the elliptical, I inevitably end up reflecting on the fact that no matter how fast I go I'm still going to end up spending a fixed amount of time in hell— that contrasts with running where I always console myself with the thought that the faster I run, the sooner it's over. At least the rowing machine enables that incentive.

Active Managers Continue Their Long Term Underperformance of Indexes

S&P Dow Jones Indices is out with its mid-year SPIVA U.S. Scorecard, measuring the performance of actively managed mutual funds against their benchmarks.

During the one-year period, 84.62% of large-cap managers, 87.89% of mid-cap managers, and 88.77% of small-cap managers underperformed the S&P 500, the S&P MidCap 400®, and the S&P SmallCap 600®, respectively.

The figures are equally unfavorable when viewed over longer-term investment horizons. Over the five-year period, 91.91% of large-cap managers, 87.87% of mid-cap managers, and 97.58% of small-cap managers lagged their respective benchmarks.

Similarly, over the 10-year investment horizon, 85.36% of large-cap managers, 91.27% of mid-cap managers, and 90.75% of small-cap managers failed to outperform on a relative basis.

When on the elliptical, I inevitably end up reflecting on the fact that no matter how fast I go I'm still going to end up spending a fixed amount of time in hell— that contrasts with running where I always console myself with the thought that the faster I run, the sooner it's over.

"...There are only three ways to produce wealth:

you can extract it from nature (fishing boats, mines, etc.),

you can grow it (farms, aquaculture, etc.),

or you can manufacture it (car factories, bottle-making plants, etc.).

That’s it.

All the rest are services—important services, critical services some of them, but still services.

Note that I am making a clear distinction between money (a medium of exchange) and wealth (real stuff like food, clothing, houses, things that we need for life).

Take barbers as a good example. If you get your hair cut twenty times, you don’t end up any wealthier than when you started. Whether the government provides the haircuts or a private barber doesn’t matter—it’s still a service, and as such, it has nothing to do with socialism. Socialism is about the means of production of wealth, not about services..."

-Willis Eschenbach

Half the time, the goddamned "planet savers" don't know what the fuck they're doing.

Here's a perfect example:

Are Plastic Bag Bans Garbage?

by Greg Rosalsky
NPR

"...But, people who used to reuse their shopping bags for other purposes, like picking up dog poop or lining trash bins, still needed bags. "What I found was that sales of garbage bags actually skyrocketed after plastic grocery bags were banned," she says. This was particularly the case for small, four-gallon bags, which saw a 120% increase in sales after bans went into effect.

Trash bags are thick and use more plastic than typical shopping bags. "So about 30% of the plastic that was eliminated by the ban comes back in the form of thicker garbage bags," Taylor says. On top of that, cities that banned plastic bags saw a surge in the use of paper bags, which she estimates resulted in about 80 million pounds of extra paper trash per year.

Plastic haters, it's time to brace yourselves. A bunch of studies find that paper bags are actually worse for the environment. They require cutting down and processing trees, which involves lots of water, toxic chemicals, fuel, and heavy machinery. While paper is biodegradable and avoids some of the problems of plastic, Taylor says, the huge increase of paper, together with the uptick in plastic trash bags, means banning plastic shopping bags increases greenhouse gas emissions..."
