| Oil Prices: Backward to the Future? Part IV | | 2008-07-01 14:34:26 | | Storage benefits may sound strange, but the notion of a convenience yield is quite intuitive. A convenience yield is simply the benefit you get from owning an object. For instance, if you own a car, you get to drive it; if you own a house, you get to live in it; it has value beyond its worth as a financial asset. Another example would be art: You can admire your Duchamp as it hangs in your living room. A share of stock provides a less ethereal example; as it can pay you a dividend of cold hard cash, something you won't get if you merely have the right to buy it in the future.How docs this work out for oil? Well, for one thing, oil's explicit storage costs are quite small because it is naturally stored in the ground. Explaining backwardation, though, requires more than low storage costs, it requires convenience yield, and not even J.R. Ewing would think a barrel of oil in his sitting room had quite the charm of a Duchamp, Rodin, or Cassait.How, then, can oil have a convenience yield? Fi | | By: Finance fantasy | | |

Warner Bros llevará a cabo esta cuarta parte con intención de iniciar una nueva trilogía, que se centrará en Skynet y en el apoteósico futuro que se describía en los tres films anteriores.
Dirigida por McG ("Los Ángeles de Charlie"), estará protagonizada por Christian Bale ('Batman Begins'), Bryce Dallas Howard ("La joven del agua"), Moon Bloodgood ("El guía del desfiladero"), Sam Worthington ("Macbeth"), y Helena Bonham Carter ("Sweeney Todd").
Bale encarna a John Connor, el hombre educado desde pequeño a dirigir a los supervivientes humanos en su lucha contra los Terminator y las máquinas lideradas por el cerebro tecnológico Skynet, el año 2018.

| Oil Prices: Backward to the Future? Part III | | 2008-06-30 10:24:50 | | So it seems that futures prices are, in general, no better a forecaster of future oil prices than the spot price. The enthusiast of making oil price forecasts using futures might wonder if futures prices add information about future oil prices that spot oil prices do not. Alternatively stated, are forecasts that use both futures prices and spot prices better than forecasts that use only the spot price? Even in this case, the futures price adds little.Theory of Storage and Arbitrage The failure of the "futures equals expected future spot" theory of futures prices is far from a recent phenomenon. Many famous economists in the 193Os and 1940s, such as John Maynard Keynes, Sir John Hicks, and Holbrook Working, noted its problems, at least for "full-carry" markets, that is, markets where extensive storage took place. These economists were the first to realize that a closer look at the costs and benefits of storage might give a better explanation of futures prices.In one sense, the flaw in t | | By: Finance fantasy | | |

| Oil Prices: Backward to the Future? Part II | | 2008-06-29 07:43:07 | | A glance at figure 1 reveals several characteristics of oil prices. One is, with apologies to the great stock speculator Bernard Baruch, that they fluctuate. The second is the large (if not steady) increase since 1999. The third pattern is a bit more subtle, but equally important: Spot prices are usually above futures prices. In futures market jargon, this is known as backwardation, and the oil market is in backwardation more than two-thirds of the time. What does this tell us about the oil market?One of the first guesses about why the current spot price is above the futures price is that prices are expected to fall. In other words, the futures price is the expected future spot price. After all, if you think the spot price in six months will be higher than the six-month futures price, there's a profit to be made: You can buy the futures and in six months turn around and sell the oil at the higher spot price. People doing this should bid up the futures price until there is no more profi | | By: Finance fantasy | | |

| Oil Prices: Backward to the Future? Part I | | 2008-06-26 09:08:04 | | Bad as the economic consequences of higher oil prices might be, the fog surrounding their future path only makes things worse. People wonder, can they go higher? Will they fall? To gain some clarity, many observers have looked to oil futures prices as a quick and easy means to forecast the direction of oil prices. After all, that is the market where experts trade contracts for the future delivery of oil. Unfortunately, futures prices do not predict well. A close examination of the futures market may help us understand the forces affecting oil prices, but won't tell us much about where those prices are headed.
This Economic Commentary explains the basic workings of the oil futures market and the economic forces that set the spot and futures prices of oil.

Can the Republicans bounce back in 2010?Senate Republicans have struggled in recent years much through own mistakes coupled with a devastating political environment, due in large part to the failed presidency of George W. Bush. It's hard to imagine the national mood being any worse for Republicans in 2010 than it was for them the past two cycles. Should the Democrats seize the White House this year, the Republicans could also benefit from the midterm election bounce that favors the party out of power. The party out of the White House has gained an average of 4 seats in the non-presidential year elections dating to 1942. While the Republicans don't appear poised to gain that many seats, they are in a position to stop the bleeding in 2010.The party must defend 19 of the 34 seats up for election in 2010, but only 2 of those seats are in states won by John Kerr | | By: Political Realm | | |

The story sounds somewhat distant from the everyday life of the average person since only a few very rich people can afford such a pricey water vehicle. However, I think that all news concerning solar energy are important and they worth to be published not just out of curiosity. Solar-powered aircrafts, solar-powered boats, solar-powered cars, or solar-powered houses - maybe all this still sounds unrealistic, or utopic, or futuristic for many people. But I believe that one day (not so far in the future!), it could be an real and affordable option for all of us. Or at least... we can dream! | | By: Solar Energy - Green Lifestyle for You | | |

| Investments Are Driven By The Potential For Future Profits | | 2008-06-12 09:41:15 | | Workers at the lower end of the spectrum gained the most: manufacturing workers enjoyed about a quarter more real income in 1945 than in 1940 (Kennedy, 641). These rising incomes were part of a wartime "great compression" of wages which equalized the distribution of incomes across the American population (Goldin and Margo, 1992). Workers are overextended and can't buy the things they make. They barely have enough to feed the kids and fill the tank for work.Government borrowed money to increase war production so it put many people to work that were not before. Yes, it generated economic activity, but later you need to pay those bills . Government stood back?after all, there was little incentive for lawmakers to intervene.

| In The Future No-one is Going to Make a PC exclusive Game | | 2008-06-10 23:58:28 | | Roy Taylor, Nvidia's VP of Content Business Development, believes consoles can never "kill" PC gaming, but that very soon it simply won't make any sense from a business standpoint to create PC-exclusive titles. "The value of consoles is such that no-one is going to make a PC-exclusive game in the future," Taylor argues in a recent interview with Eurogamer. "That said, PC gaming is changing - and consoles don't threaten PC gaming. They're just different." Despite the impending dearth of PC exclusives, Taylor believes the PC simply can't ever completely fall to consoles, as when comparing games ported across multiple systems, "the console is a baseline, the PC is going to be an improved version." Not only that, Taylor also believes the trend of consoles mimicking PCs is actually beneficial to the PC gaming scene.

| Avs' Future Through the Draft? | | 2008-06-10 10:34:13 | |
Since the lockout ended and the new CBA was handed down written in blood on the dried skin from Bob Goodenow's carcass, the party line for developing a championship team has been drafting well . The second caveat of that strategy seemed to be trying to draft as many guys who were ready to play ‘right now’. This saves money toward the cap, and generates excitement when fans can see guys that likely will be long-time contributors to the team. Setting aside the 06 and 07 draft classes in this evaluation, nobody but Wojtek Wolski came out of his class (drafted in 04, played in 05-06) and nobody but Paul Stastny (drafted in 05, played in 06-07) has come out of his class to contribute to the Avs within a year of drafting. Remember, Baron von Stastinheim was the 2nd round pick that year! Hell, nobody but Wolly has come out of that class to contribute at all.

| Mazda Dealers and Designers Split on Future of MX-5 Styling | | 2008-06-05 08:12:00 | | Autocar is reporting in the May 21 issue of its print magazine that Mazda dealers are pretty pleased with the looks of the current generation Mazda MX-5 convertible and don’t want the boat rocked too badly when the car gets a facelift next year.Word is that the new-look Mazda MX-5 won’t carry any of the design cues from the recent Nargare concepts, despite the fact that the next generation of Mazda vehicles will. Mazda is characterizing their dealer network as “very happy” with the profitable MX-5 as presently constituted.Meanwhile the Mazda design team would like to push the envelope a bit more, saying that the MX-5 is “never radical enough” for them. The all-new MX-5 isn’t due out until 2012 so perhaps they’ll have time to make their case. | | By: Autoshows | | |

| The Future's So Bright... | | 2008-06-03 22:46:00 | | I know the title contradicts my earlier post, but shock has a way of coloring a situation. My heart still aches, but I have never been one on whom lies sit right. I am sure there was an easier way to have said that, but it is late and I am in shock, so please cut just a little slack. See, I don't lie. I don't lie to a fault. When I was a kid, my mom would throw parties where her friends would come and she would introduce me to them all by saying "Brad, you remember (insert name here)?"I thought she was asking honestly, so I would look at them, then at her and say "no." I realize that is the incorrect answer, but it was the honest answer. I have since sort of learned the difference, although old reflexes do take the better of me from time to time. Whoops, tangent.I would always rather take a nasty painful truth than a pleasant lie, especially from someone I think to be above lies. I am a gullible person by nature, so I have a distrusting outer shell. If I trust you, then I can | | By: The Kanrei Home for Wayward Lemmings | | |

| Community Review: The Future of MySpace | | 2008-06-03 20:07:37 | | MySpace Home Originally uploaded by life_changes If you read my Community Review on Yahoo!, you’ll find that Yahoo! is most noted as a web directory, although it has developed a huge online community. The opposite is true with MySpace.com, the largest social networking community online, which is fast-growing into a web directory. Since joining the website in 2005, I have watched the membership grow, and can see how MySpace is developing into a web directory thru the addition of many features over time. Millions of people visit MySpace each day not only to connect with other people, but also to access the features that the site offers. The community features currently offered by MySpace include: MySpace Blogs MySpace Chat Rooms MySpace Classifieds MySpace Events MySpace Forums MySpace Groups MySpace Impact MySpace Jobs MySpace News MySpace Polls MySpace Weather These are standard community features, although MySpace does take these features to the next level like only MyS | | By: Online Socialite | | |

| Bridging Loans: Charging you up to Meet the Future | | 2008-05-31 07:47:34 | | Bridging Loans: Charging you up to Meet the FutureBy: Anaya Erika Many a times our fancies are taken in by a new house, a new car, a new residential plot or any other costly consumer item requiring a substantial sum as investment. So acting illogically—at least from the financial point of view—the person just barges in to the new bargain without thinking about the resources at hand. The deal thus—for example for a new house—gets signed, requiring a quick disposal of the funds. Normally an old house gives the baton to the new one; or say, people buy new house by selling the old one. So if the old one is yet to be sold, where to find the funds for the new one? It is here that the role of such loans comes in to play.Prominent loan facilitators have very competitive set of credit providers who come on to the gloomy scene with a ray of hope. These timely set of borrowings enable a person to utilize the favorable circumstances prevailing in the property market—for ex | | By: all credit loan. All about credit and loan. Always | | |

| Jaguars make significant changes with eye on the future | | 2008-05-30 16:04:42 | |
[Note by River City Rage, 05/30/08 7:14 PM EDT ]: I'd like to take a second and welcome FBT to Big Cat Country. He was kind enough to write this overview of the developing 2008 Jacksonville Jaguars!
The Jacksonville Jaguars enter the 2008 season with change on their mind, and a title on their agenda. With the departure of Marcus Stroud, Sammy Knight, and Bobby McCray, the Jaguars look to get younger, healthier, and more effective across the board. And it is not only changes to the field personnel that are expected to yield positive results. Significant changes on the sideline with the departure of Mike Smith, Dave Campo, and Ray Hamilton signal a change in direction for the mindset of the defense as well.
It was only a couple of seasons ago that Marcus Stroud was the Jaguars best defensive player, warranting multiple trips to Hawaii for the Pro Bowl, and creating one half of the tandem that was labeled the twin towers along with John Henderson.

| Google CEO: Web 2.0 is overhyped and future lies in Mobile Web | | 2008-05-29 01:59:43 | | In a recent interview with FAZ a german site Google CEO Eric Schmidt said that according to him the next big wave in advertising is the mobile internet he also said that the web 2.0 architecture is not necessarily a revenue opportunity. Here are some excerpts from that long interviewWhere is the growth potential for Google? We have many more ideas about technology the most obvious large space of advertising is the mobile internet. Just take the success of the iPhone: It has the first really powerful web browser on a mobile device - and many more are still coming. Nokia has one coming, Blackberry has one and Motorola has one. They are all supposed to be released this year. By these products, the advertising gets more targeted because phones are personal. So targeted ads are possible. And that means the value of the ads will grow. The next big wave in advertising is the mobile internet.Video and display advertising? Eric Schmidt: A lot of opportunities are in video and display.

| The Future of Cable News | | 2008-05-27 22:02:00 | | (Note: This is a continuation of my previous post examining what "fair" and "balanced" mean. This post examines their impact on cable news.)In the case of MSNBC, Keith Olbermann's "Countdown" draws the highest ratings of any show on the network. Liberals may call this show "fair," but it is certainly not "balanced." Conservative guests are rare, so the show comes across like a liberal political echo chamber at times. His show has an obvious liberal bent, especially towards Barack Obama. But does Olbermann come across as sympathetic to Obama because he believes Obama has made fewer major gaffes in comparison to Hillary Clinton and John McCain? Or does Olbermann come across as sympathetic to Obama because he actually agrees with Obama's political beliefs? And when was the last time Olbermann has had anything positive to say about Republicans or the President?What will happen to Olbermann's show if Obama wins the election? Countdown has drawn rave reviews from liberals who view h | | By: The 7-10 | | |
