== Ultimate Astros  Extra inning- Maxwell raps, Castro s ==
 +
 +
<html>ARLINGTON Dr. Dre and 1990s rap music blasted through the Astros clubhouse. Justin Maxwell took the lead while his teammates filled in, tossing out rhymes as heads nodded and shirt buttons were fastened.
 +
 +
The Astros have collected? just 32 victories in 88 games this season. Saturday s was one of the sweetest. And it was savored once finally filed away during a nine-inning game that lasted 3 hours, 50 minutes and featured 21 hits, 14 runs, 10 pitchers and the unraveling of Rangers starter Yu Darvish.

 +
 +
The Astros downed the in-state rival Rangers for only the second time this year and first since a March 31 season-opener. Everyone from starting lefthander Dallas Keuchel to former Class AAA Oklahoma City players Jake Elmore, Brett Wallace and Marc Krauss held key roles in a 9-5 victory at Rangers Ballpark.
 +
 +
. The first-time All-Star blasted a go-ahead three-run homer in the seventh that changed the Astros night and captured his importance to a struggling but resilient club.
 +
 +
Bo Porter called Castro into his office pregame to inform the 26-year-old of his All-Star selection.? The first-year manager told his catcher he represented everything positive and professional about the rebuilding Astros.
 +
 +
If I was looking for someone to date my daughter and a three-hole hitter,[http://cgm.ru/wiki/index.php?title=%D0%A3%D1%87%D0%B0%D1%81%D1%82%D0%BD%D0%B8%D0%BA:KevinLee621#Ultimate_Astros__Porter.E2.80.99s_bullpen_move_backfires_on Ultimate Astros  Porter’s bullpen move backfires on], he d be the guy, Porter said.
 +
 +

 +
 +
I never had any doubts that I was going to come back and be able to play. I ve definitely come a long way and put in a lot of work, from limping around the clubhouse in a knee brace to getting back to where I am now and health-wise how I feel, said Castro, who s hitting .271 with 12 homers, 23 doubles and 31 RBIs. I m really thankful to everyone that s helped me come back from that. The organization was great for having me go through all of that and still believing in me and giving me the opportunity to have a spot.
 +
 +
The Astros OKC trio are fighting for long-term major-league spots.
 +
 +
Wallace continued his major-league rebound, going 2-for-2 with two doubles, two runs, two walks and was hit by a pitch. Krauss had his best game since being added to the 25-man roster June 20, going 3-for-4 with a two-run single. Elmore launched the first home run of his major-league career into the left-field stands in the eighth inning.
 +
 +
Elmore on the joy of his first homer: For multiple reasons. First one ever. But the biggest thing is, (in that at-bat) I m a bunt guy. And I ve been successful every other time up here. And then it was 1-2 and I was like, great here we go. I m 0-for-3, in the hole off a great pitcher,[http://nl.timopedia.eu/wiki/Gebruiker:KevinLee062#Ultimate_Rockets__Counting_down_to_Dwight_Howard_sign Ultimate Rockets  Counting down to Dwight Howard sign], and he just threw me a front-door slider and I reacted and got it.
 +
 +
Krauss on having better at-bats: I really haven t been too nervous at all since I ve been up, which is kind of surprising. But I definitely feel more comfortable. This is a good park to hit in and I just kind of settled in and I saw the ball well tonight and I was able to cash in on a few and get some knocks.
 +
 +
Jose Veras on mound issues: There s a huge hole up there. The ground crew told me Darvish used to do that. My right foot stuck out there, so I said, Oh my God. I can t pitch like that. So I told the umpires. When I told them,[http://fawi.gg8.se/Anv%C3%A4ndare:KevinLee249#Arts_Scene-_.27Stories_From_the_Cemetary.2C.27_.27.28title Arts Scene- 'Stories From the Cemetary,' '(title], they just say,[http://www.duldulao.net/ How Are Stock Prices Calculated-], Oh my God. They said the same. It s unbelievable.
 +
 +
Maxwell is scheduled to return to Houston on Sunday to undergo concussion-related tests. If he passes, he ll begin a minor-league rehab assignment Monday with OKC.
 +
 +
Keuchel said he s fine after struggling midgame with the hole in the mound, which was located near the base of the rubber.

== Anchorage police investigate exploding water bottle bombs ==
 +
 +
<html>An exploding water bottle bomb Friday afternoon brought Anchorage police to the 800 block of Fourth Avenue, between Muldoon Road and Duben Avenue,[http://www.americantheaterweb.com/ Definition of Bid Price_0], police said.
 +
Investigators don't know where the plastic water bottle bomb came from but it's the sort that police have encountered before.
 +
"Generally it's teens that learn how to make them using an Internet video and then dump them around neighborhoods, playgrounds,[http://www.justicacolaborativa.com/mediawiki/index.php?title=Usu%C3%A1rio:KevinLee201#Griffith_steps_down_as_Luis_Hospital_chief Griffith steps down as Luis Hospital chief], etc.," police spokeswoman Jennifer Castro said in an email.
 +
A resident called police around 4 p.m. about an explosion in the yard. Police say they found pieces of an exploded water bottle,[http://wiki.meego-fr.org/index.php/Utilisateur:KevinLee188#Senate_Finance_makes_quick_work_of_transpo_bill Senate Finance makes quick work of transpo bill], bits of foil and evidence of a liquid chemical.
 +
The resident heard more than one explosion, so there were likely at least two water bottle bombs,[http://hikkoshi-yadokari.com/2012/02/kakuyasudanboru.php#comments Abbott ‘major announcement’ coming Sun], Castro said.
 +
More may have been left in the area. Police say if you find one, don't pick it up; instead,[http://fait.org.ua/wiki/index.php/%D0%A3%D1%87%D0%B0%D1%81%D1%82%D0%BD%D0%B8%D0%BA:KevinLee303#Sen._Wendy_Davis.2C_Planned_Parenthood_kick_off_bus_tour_0 Sen.

 +
 +
<html>CHICAGO A 6-year-old Illinois boy who was buried in 11 feet of sand for hours at a northern Indiana dune is expected to make a full neurological recovery, though he may have ongoing lung problems, a doctor who treated him said Monday.
 +
Nathan Woessner is sedated and on a ventilator, but should be removed from it by the end of the week,[http://www.plastnett.no/wiki/index.php?title=Bruker:KevinLee054#What_Are_Equities- What Are Equities-], said Dr. Tracy Koogler, medical director at the University of Chicago Medical Center's pediatric intensive care unit.
 +
Nathan may be released from the hospital in 10 to 14 days,[http://sirio.empolese-valdelsa.it/wiki/index.php/Utente:KevinLee015#Film_set_signs_specialize_in_misdirection_to_throw_fans.2C_pap Film set signs specialize in misdirection to throw fans, pap], she said.
 +
He's been in critical condition since Friday, when he was rescued after falling into a sinkhole and being buried in sand for about four hours. Nathan was climbing the Mount Baldy dune in the Indiana Dunes National Lakeshore with his father and two friends.
 +
Nathan's grandfather,[http://wiki.ekoenergia.fi/index.php/K%C3%A4ytt%C3%A4j%C3%A4:KevinLee146#Ultimate_Astros__Astros_report-_Cosart.E2.80.99s_stella Ultimate Astros  Astros report- Cosart’s stella], Don Reul of Galva, Ill., said the 8-year-old friend saw Nathan disappear into the sand. Nathan's father and his friend's father could hear him at first and tried to dig him out with their hands.
 +
They stopped when Nathan kept sinking farther under the sand. Eventually, they couldn't hear him anymore, Reul said.
 +
Reul,[http://wiki.norrvikensskola.se/index.php/Anv%C3%A4ndare:KevinLee895#House_Republicans_reject_George_W._Bush.E2.80.99s_conciliatory House Republicans reject George W. Bush’s conciliatory], a pastor, said the family feared Nathan was dead when he was pulled out, until a cut on the boy's face began bleeding.
 +
Then, Reul said, "hope began to bubble up in our family that Nathan's not gone."
 +
Koogler said Nathan may suffer asthma or some other lung problems because he breathed in so much sand, but she was surprised that his lungs weren't more damaged.
 +
"I believe he had to have had an air pocket down there,[http://motsunabe.info/shinjyuku/post_166.php#comments Fuel Fix  Energy pushes Houston to nation&#]," Koogler said, saying there is no other explanation for why he survived.
 +
Nathan was taken out of sedation long enough to demonstrate that he can move his arms, legs, toes and fingers, Koogler said, and initial tests don't show any neurological damage.
 +
In six months, "I hope he is acting like a normal 6- or 7-year-old," Koogler said.</html>

== Ultimate Rockets  Rockets retain Garcia; Casspi OKS d ==
 +
 +
<html>The Rockets had not finished celebrating landing Dwight Howard when they moved to begin filling the roster around him.
 +
 +
They quickly reached agreements to bring back Francisco Garcia and to sign his former Sacramento Kings teammate, Omri Casspi, two individuals with knowledge of the deals said Saturday.
 +
 +
The Rockets acquired Garcia,[http://blogs.afterabc.co.kr/media_centre/2011/04/five-top-destinations-in-korea.html Ultimate Astros  Astros report- Norris roug], 32, from the Kings at the deadline, but did not pick up the option on the final season of his deal, worth $6.5 million.
 +
 +
They agreed to terms Saturday on a two-year veteran’s minimum contract worth $2.6 million, the second season at his option.
 +
 +
Garcia’s play was sporadic in a limited role after the trade late in the season, but he excelled in the playoffs, defending Thunder star Kevin Durant and giving the Rockets an enormous offensive lift. Garcia, 6-7, averaged 6.4 points in his 18 regular-season games with the Rockets. In the six playoff games against Oklahoma City, Garcia averaged 10.7 points, making 45.9 percent of his 3-pointers.
 +
 +
“I feel good, man,” said Garcia, a guard/forward. “I like the team, the coaching staff, the organization. I’m glad to be back.”
 +
 +
The Rockets added Casspi as a potential successor to Carlos Delfino. The first Israeli in the NBA, Casspi was selected by the Kings with the 23rd pick of the 2009 draft with the pick Sacramento acquired from the Rockets in the deal that sent Ron Artest to Houston.
 +
 +
Casspi, 25, agreed to the veteran’s minimum, with the second season at the team’s option. Casspi averaged 10.3 points and 4.3 rebounds as a rookie,[http://pjgy.com.cn/home.php?mod=space&uid=62440 ], but struggled in the three seasons since with the Kings and Cavaliers.
 +
 +
The Rockets,[http://a8sy.net/plus/view.php?aid=26747 DirecTV Emerges as Frontrunner to Purchase Hulu], who had interest in Casspi, 6-9, at the trade deadline,[http://www.ochoasfamily.com/wiki/index.php?title=Usuario:KevinLee536#WASHINGTON-_IMF_forecasts_slower_global_growth_in_2013 WASHINGTON- IMF forecasts slower global growth in 2013], envision him as a combo forward, playing as a power forward in small lineups, who is a strong defender, good in transition, tough and a good shooter from the corner.
 +
 +
With the moves, the Rockets kept their “room exception,[http://wiki.godbot.net/index.php/Benutzer:KevinLee814#Senate_to_take_up_student_loans.2C_resuming_partisan_debate Senate to take up student loans, resuming partisan debate],” worth $5.42 million over two seasons, available. They could bring back forward James Anderson, depending on the official salary-cap figure to be released Wednesday. Anderson is playing in the Rockets summer league with a non-guaranteed contract.
 +
 +
They are also considering making an offer to forward Kostas Papanikolau.</html>

== Broker Safety and Soundness- Cyprus Was a Forex Wakeup Call ==
 +
 +
<html>How safe are your funds with your current broker? How often do you ask yourself this question during the year? Our investment horizons have expanded greatly over the previous decade. Investing in foreign markets does not have the stigma that it once had. Dabbling in currencies, commodities and the futures market may have also gained appeal. The Internet has been the great enabler,[http://wikipedia.fsw.leidenuniv.nl:8080/IclonWiki/index.php?title=Gebruiker:KevinLee516#Definition_of_Earnings_Per_Share Definition of Earnings Per Share], but specialization has made it more difficult to find a one-stop-shop for covering all of our investment needs. As a result, brokers have proliferated across the globe, but do they all follow “best practices”?
 +
Each of us may have as many as three or more brokers that provide us access to the vehicles we want and with a trading platform that suits our individual tastes. Each of us has invested many hours of “due diligence” up front to stave off the possibility of broker fraud and to ensure that our hard-earned capital is safe at all times. In this era of globalization,[http://orient.pe.kr/wiki/%EC%82%AC%EC%9A%A9%EC%9E%90:KevinLee559#A_Rare_Anomaly_in_the_Gold_Market-_Adding_Insult_to_Injury_0 A Rare Anomaly in the Gold Market- Adding Insult to Injury 0], moving funds overseas and buying over another exchange can be done with ease,[http://www.sharonleeltd.co.uk/member/131357 Senate transportation plan heads to house], but are we certain that counterparty risk has been mitigated by efficient regulatory oversight? Are foreign banks a safe depository for our account balances?
 +
The forex trading community received a shock a few months back when the financial crisis in Cyprus burst forth on the scene in all of its horrific glory. The safety of forex account balances was suddenly called into question on this tiny island nation of 1.2 million people. Cyprus had been a member of the EU since May of 2004, but its two largest banks, the Bank of Cyprus and the Laiki Bank were in financial disarray. Each had invested far too heavily in Greek bonds and had the financial losses to show for it. Without bailout funds, both banks’ depositors stood to lose everything.
 +
Government officials had marketed Cyprus as an ideal financial center,[http://bbs.gpr.cn/home.php?mod=space&uid=99920 ], due to its location,[http://norn-rpg.altenbach-it.net/wiki/index.php?title=Benutzer:KevinLee915#Understanding_the_Federal_Reserve_0 Understanding the Federal Reserve 0], low tax structure, and lax regulatory environment that valued flexibility over stringent compliance. To date, 80 forex brokerage firms have set up shop on the island, employing thousands of local inhabitants and accounting for more than 60% of the registrations for financial operating entities in the locale. Plans now call for a re-structuring of the Bank of Cyprus, but the Laiki Bank will be closed. Regulators have frozen account balances and will seize roughly 40% of the funds on balances over 100,000 Euros.
 +
Forex traders have lost a lot of sleep lately. Major firms on the island typically have client balances segregated offshore with Tier-1 banks, far from local jurisdiction and seizure. Local operating funds might suffer, but not the “Mother Lode”. For smaller and newer entrants, such may not be the case. They are desperately seeking additional capital to stay alive and restore order, but some will undoubtedly fail. The reputation of the forex industry has taken a broadside hit, but major firms are rushing to repair the damage.
 +
You do not have to trade currencies to understand the import of this situation. Sovereign risk or whatever name you wish to attach to it is real. Our modern world may seem more connected electronically than ever before, but connectivity has little to do with the causes of financial distress. In the case of Cyprus, the damage was done by poor investment decisions and had nothing to do with currencies.
 +
Investing in foreign equities has expanded over the past decade, and, after recent pullbacks, investment managers are beginning to tout this sector once again. Time to call your broker about his investment protection procedures.
