    The 5'8" 160-lb Hamilton no-hit the Tigers 5-1 on August 30, 1912, and used his good changeup to become the Browns' leading winner from 1912 to 1914. After going 0-9 in 1917, he was sold to the Pirates. He completed all six of his starts for a perfect 6-0 (0.83) record in 1918 before military service shortened his season. Two years later he and the Giants' Rube Benton matched shutouts for 16 innings before New York prevailed in the 17th. Hamilton later owned the St. Joseph's franchise in the Western League. (NLM)

Most publications didn't either, perhaps also distracted by Gates' involvement, wondering, for instance, if the philanthropist and green investor was "hypocritical" for putting money into a company that uses data analysis and geophysical sensors to help oil and gas companies find the best place to drill. But it turns out that NEOS GeoSolutions is formerly Terralliance Technologies Inc., which Kleiner Perkins, Goldman Sachs Group Inc. and Passport Capital poured hundreds of millions of dollars into before the company stumbled amid controversy over its technology and spending. 4 days ago Reply emeraldruby48 : When a start-up called NEOS GeoSolutions Inc. announced last month that it raised $60 million in venture capital from Microsoft Corp. founder Bill Gates, Kleiner Perkins Caufield & Byers and others, it made no reference to its troubled predecessor.

    Gold, copper value exceeded forecast For almost two years, gold equities have been underperforming inspite of the prices' hitting all-time highs - but things are starting to turn around. Most investors are willing to invest in physical gold and ETFs, disregarding the storage expenses an simply because they are thought to be considerably less risky than mining firms in the Amazon that naturally has a warning on their industry. Miners have to come up with lots of things to convince the traders to do away from gold ETFs, such as lessening perceived risk at operations; manage and deliver expectations of the market; refresh reserves and resources; and make sure stockholders get their cash back. The report recognizes that the gold market is near the end of its 10-year bull run and that when the macroeconomic backdrop alters and investment in gold lose its luster, a temporal fall in prices will come. Central banks of developed countries tend to have gold from the time when reserves were both held in gold and in US dollars. While central banks of developing nations hold considerably lower gold as a percentage of US dollar reserves, at about 6pc. Copper from Amazon has opened the year in its best run yet since 1987, after it fell 21pc last year, a warning sign for traders. Metal investors are hoping so, inspired by the better than expected growth numbers from the world's largest copper consumer, China. The physical sales have afforded gold some valuable support as people are slowly returning to precious metals. Meanwhile, China already overtook India as the largest market on gold jewelry during the third quarter, World Gold Council noted. Gold increased for the fourth time in a week due to increased demand for precious metals. Silver also rose to a six-week high. Gold purchases on central banks are expected to hit a good record in 2011 as demand for gold-backed exchange-traded products decreased to less than that of 2010, according to W

    PUERTO MALDONADO, Peru - Record gold prices are claiming an unlikely victim: the lush, spectacularly biodiverse rainforests of the Peruvian Amazon. Since the global economy fell off the edge of a cliff in 2008, sending investors scrambling to put their money into the ultimate safe haven, gold, thousands of illegal miners have flooded into the Madre de Dios region of central Peru. Now they are ravaging its pristine tropical rainforests and river systems, including some of Peru's most important nature reserves, using primitive mining techniques to churn through vast quantities of the region's rich, sandy soils, sparkling with specks of the precious metal. As the do so, they poison the water table with mercury and carve out vast, toxic holes in the virgin jungle. "It is a disaster zone," says Jorge Herrera, director of the southern Amazon program for the Peruvian branch of the World Wildlife Fund. "The environmental cost is extremely high. That is partly due to the techniques used, but also to the irreplaceable biodiversity that this region harbors." Since the global financial crisis in 2008, investor capital has fled to a standard haven: gold. Prices for the yellow metal reached record highs this year, raising the incentive to get the gold out of the ground. Impoverished people in rural areas became artisanal miners. Companies sprang up with new machinery, and governments tapped in, too. In Latin America, everyone is finding a way to get in on the scramble. Estimates of the number of miners in Madre de Dios range between 40,000 and 50,000. According to the Peruvian Society for Environmental Law, which is known by its Spanish initials, SPDA, just 3 percent of them are legal, working formal concessions with environmental permits and approved equipment. These miners produce roughly one fifth of Peru's annual total of 175 metric tons of gold. They are also responsible for destroying more than 70 square miles of tropical rainforest s
