Donald Trump says the whole economy is 'rigged'
Donald Trump says the U.S. economy is rigged. If that line sounds familiar, it should. Bernie Sanders uses it constantly in his campaign. Sanders even devotes a section of his website to explaining the rigged economy.
As Trump bashed rival Hillary Clinton in a speech Wednesday for being a "world-class liar," he also sought to win over Sanders' supporters and the working class. "It's not just the political system that's rigged, it's the whole economy," Trump said, to much applause.
The middle class can't get ahead, Trump argued, because the system is controlled by big donors, big businesses and big bureaucrats who all want to keep wages down while enriching themselves. Trump vows he's the only one who can overhaul the system.
"Hillary Clinton's message is old and tired. Her message is that things can't change. My message is that things have to change," Trump said. "We're asking Bernie Sanders supporters to join our movement." Few economists would go as far as Trump and Sanders (and Democratic Senator Elizabeth Warren) in saying the entire system is "rigged," but it's hard to deny some key facts about the U.S. economy: America's middle class is shrinking -A typical family is earning the same today as in 1996 -The majority of Americans believe their children will be worse off than them financially -Men, especially white men, have fallen out of the job market
IMF says U.S. should raise minimum wage, offer paid maternity leave and overhaul taxes
The International Monetary Fund downgraded its forecast for the U.S. economy this year and said America should raise the minimum wage to help the poor, offer paid maternity leave to encourage more women to work and overhaul the corporate tax system to boost productivity.
In its annual checkup of the U.S. economy, the IMF on Wednesday predicted 2.2 percent U.S. growth this year, down from 2.4 percent in 2015. In April, the international lending agency had forecast 2.4 percent growth for 2016.
Still, IMF managing director Christine Lagarde, citing a healthy job market, says "the U.S. economy is in good shape." U.S. unemployment fell last month to an eight-year low 4.7 percent. Employers have added a solid 200,000 jobs a month over the past year.
The U.S. is growing faster than most other advanced economies. The IMF foresees 1.5 percent growth this year for the 19 countries that use the euro currency, and 0.5 percent growth for Japan.
High school graduates are way worse off today than 40 years ago
Several decades ago, regular American guys could get by with a decent job with a decent wage on just a high school diploma. But things are very different today.
In a hefty report on the long-term decline in prime-age male labor-force participation, the White House's Council of Economic Advisers shared a chart showing the ratio of high school graduate wages to college graduate wages from 1975 to 2014.
Rather than making almost as much as their college-educated peers as they did 40 years ago, workers with only a high school diploma today make only about half as much on average. As you can see below, the ratio dipped significantly since the 1970s. The relative wages of full-time, year-round workers with only a high school diploma fell from nearly 85% of the amount earned by those with at least a college degree to slightly above 55%.
There's also been a huge dip in prime-age male labor force participation in the same time frame. The fraction of men aged 25-65 who are working or actively seeking work has steadily dropped over the years.
Goldman Sachs Notifies Regulators of 98 New York Job Cuts
Goldman Sachs Group Inc. has told 98 employees in New York that their jobs are being eliminated, bringing the number of dismissals disclosed to state officials this year to at least 353.
The reductions are part of a third round of layoffs at the firm, the bank said in a notice with the state Labor Department dated June 21. An earlier document in April cited 146 cuts, and a March filing detailed 109 dismissals.
The employees, who worked across a variety of businesses, were notified in April, May and the first week of June, according to a person briefed on the cuts.
They will drop off the payroll from July to October, said the person, who asked not to be identified discussing personnel decisions. The bank had 36,500 total staff as of March 31, according to a financial filing. Goldman Sachs has been reducing staff as it seeks to weather a slump in trading and deal making.
What housing recovery? Appraisal volumes barely moved this month
More housing experts are challenging the notion this nation is in a sustained housing recovery. And, the latest appraisal numbers back those challenges.
The appraisal volume rose slightly from last week, but as we enter the summer season, the market is holding still and steady, according to the latest National Appraisal Volume Index from a la mode.
a la mode is an appraisal forms software company that provides its findings exclusively to HousingWire each week. The NAVI rose slightly at 0.3% from last week, a slight increase after last week's jump of 16%. The four-week average growth remained flat at 0.0%.
As the summer begins, the market is unable to move because of inconsistent economic news, said Kevin Golden, a la mode director of analytics. While, in the last few years, the housing market improved, lack of inventory, high home prices and a shortage of inventory continue to plague homebuyers. In fact, as far as inventory goes, there is still room for two more years of expansion, said Managing Director Robert Curran in a webcast for Fitch Ratings, a financial information services company.

Feds charge $900 million in fake medical bills, kickbacks and other health care fraud
The Justice Department announced Wednesday it had charged a record 301 people with schemes that defrauded government health programs by submitting $900 million in fraudulent health claims.
The announcement of the charges, called the largest takedown for Medicare and Medicaid fraud in history, was the result of a nationwide sweep that exposed alleged kickbacks, embezzlement and fake claims to the government programs that provide health care for the elderly and the poor. The allegations involved various kinds of fraud in diverse areas of health care, ranging from prescription drugs to home health care to physical therapy.
"They submitted dishonest claims, they charged excessive fees and they prescribed unnecessary drugs," Attorney General Loretta Lynch said at a news conference. "As this takedown should make clear, health-care fraud is not an abstract violation. It's not a benign offense. It's a serious crime."
The Justice Department called the sweep "unprecedented" in a press release. Last year, 243 people were charged with $712 million in false claims.
Yellen agrees it is too soon to take her 'foot off the pedal' to help labor market
Federal Reserve Chairman Janet Yellen on Wednesday said she agreed with the "basic thrust" of a congressman's comments who told her it was too soon to take her "foot off the pedal" of stimulus designed to help improve the labor market.
During her testimony to the House Financial Services panel, Rep. Denny Heck, a Democrat from Washington, told the Fed chief: "I cannot shake the feeling it is way too premature to put out the mission accomplished banner on the aircraft carrier," even though car and homes sales are strong, and the unemployment rate has fallen to 4.7%. The mission-accomplished banner is a reference to President George W. Bush's infamous 2003 speech declaring victory in Iraq.
Heck said he thought his sense of unease was due to the slow 2.5% growth in wages in the expansion. This rate "is fairly de minimis" compared with the 4% growth in wages seen in the last recovery, Heck said.
"At the end of the day, most Americans, and even everybody on this [House Financial Services] panel, Democrats and Republicans, would like America get a pay raise," Heck said.
IRS Admits To Illegally Seizing Bank Accounts; Agrees To Give The Money Back
It's the stuff of libertarian dreams. The IRS admits that it wrongfully took money from innocent citizens, and it gives the money back. This is actually happening to victims of a little-known form of civil asset forfeiture carried out by the IRS on the premise of "structuring" violations. In case you didn't know, depositing or withdrawing just under $10,000 from your bank account multiple times is viewed as suspicious and possibly criminal activity.
In a victory for lawmakers working to make it harder for the government to take property from innocent Americans, the Internal Revenue Service plans to give people who have had money seized over the last six years the chance to petition to get their money back, The Daily Signal has learned. According to a GOP source, the IRS told the House Ways and Means Oversight Subcommittee that it will send letters to everyone the agency seized money from for alleged structuring violations, which involves making consistent cash transactions of just under $10,000 to avoid reporting requirements, starting in October 2009.
One petition has already been granted, and others are likely to follow. The IRS has seized entire bank accounts with no notice or due process, alleging the owners sought to avoid federal bank reporting requirements. The aforementioned pattern of banking is described as "intentionally structuring cash transactions," and they call it a crime.
This nefarious provision of the Bank Secrecy Act is purportedly targeted at drug traffickers, money launderers and terrorists, but it has swept up hundreds of innocent people—including small business owners who lost everything because they deal wholly or partly in cash. Carole Hinders, owner of a Mexican restaurant in Iowa that only accepted cash, had her entire bank account of $33,000 seized even though she did nothing wrong. The IRS seized $63,000 from Randy Sowers, a dairy farmer in Maryland, because he was depositing under $10,000 into his bank account.
New Minimum Wage Laws Kill Opportunities for Low-income Youth
California, New York and now Washington D.C. are passing laws requiring small businesses to pay a minimum wage of $15 per hour. These laws are an attempt to provide an increased wage to workers, but at what cost? Some evidence suggests that these changes will mean disaster for the very people such they are trying to help: the young working poor. Meanwhile our economy is burdened with $19 trillion in federal debt, an incomprehensible tax code, unsustainable trade agreements and 80,000 pages of business regulation, all of which result in economic stagnation and slow growth of wages.
Today, 24 million small business are operating in America. They account for almost half of our country's GNP. These businesses created 64% of our new jobs over the last 15 years, and are responsible for over half of our patents. They pay a remarkable one-third of all local, state, and federal taxes. In every corner of society, entrepreneurs are creating opportunity for American workers.
More than the astounding statistical punch of America's small businesses, they are the soul of the towns and cities that criss-cross our country; the brave and dedicated entrepreneurs who risk everything for these businesses, the driving force of many local economies. Despite that fact, most startups—several million—go out of business every year. One main reason so many businesses fail is that the market will not support a good or service that does not benefit the consumer. That is simple fact and, many would claim, the inherent justice of the market economy.
But another reason for failure exists—and that is the systemic burden many countries impose on entrepreneurs in the form of regulations. From the onerous 79,000 pages of tax code and the massive regulations a business owner must navigate, this system often steals a business' first breath before most consumers even know it exists. Today, more regulations are hitting the entrepreneur than ever before, including higher minimum wage laws passing around the country.
Middle Class Jobs That Will Be Gone Soon
Unemployment may have returned to pre-recession levels, but the middle class jobs Americans used to rely on to get by are nowhere to be found. A significant number of new jobs added since the 2008 economic meltdown are in low-paying industries like food service and home health care, a recent Wall Street Journal analysis found. At the same time, many traditional middle-class jobs, like those in construction and manufacturing, have vanished.
The news isn't all bad. The U.S. economy has also added well-paying jobs in information services, management and consulting, and software development, the WSJ's research found. But there's no doubt that many of the jobs that once provided a secure middle-class income to millions of Americans no longer exist.
Some – especially government jobs – have vanished due to budget cuts, while others have been shifted offshore or eliminated when technology made workers obsolete. And the worst isn't over yet, at least in some industries.
Though the job market is expected to grow by about 7% between 2014 and 2024, according to data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS), the growth won't be shared equally across all industries. While certain fields, such as nursing and accounting, are looking at double-digit job growth, others are expected to shrink dramatically. The endangered jobs include many that pay enough to push someone into the middle class. (A family of four needed a household income of at least $48,000 to qualify as middle income in 2014, according to the Pew Research Center.)

11 million Americans dedicating half of income to pay the rent
Thanks to the Federal Reserve and Janet Yellen, housing affordability is gradually becoming a major problem for millions of Americans all over the country. Due to the skyrocketing costs of renting, millions of renters spend at least half of their income toward housing.
According to a new annual State of the Nation's Housing Report from the Joint Center for Housing Studies of Harvard University, 11 million people dedicated at least half of their earnings to pay the rent. This incredible figure is now a record high. It doesn't end there.
Researchers note that 21.3 million people are spending one-third or more of their paycheck to pay the rent, which is also a record high. As renting costs grow faster than wages – the average renter earns about $35,000 per year – it's becoming harder to pay the rent.
Here is one excerpt from the report: "Cost burdens are nearly universal among the nation's lowest-income households. Federal assistance reaches only a quarter of those who qualify, leaving nearly 14 million households to find housing in the private market where low-cost units are increasingly scarce. Low -income households with cost burdens face higher rates of housing instability, more often settle for poor-quality housing, and have to sacrifice other needs—including basic nutrition, and safety—to pay for their housing. These conditions have serious long -term consequences, particularly for children's future achievement. 'And compounding these challenges,' added Daniel McCue, a senior research associate at the Joint Center, 'residential segregation by income has increased. Between 2000 and 2014, the number of people living in neighborhoods of concentrated poverty more than doubled to 13.7 million.'"
Ex-Deutsche Bank Trader Admits to Rigging Libor in U.S.
A former Deutsche Bank AG trader secretly pleaded guilty in New York to conspiring to manipulate a benchmark interest rate tied to trillions of dollars in securities and loans and prosecutors said he agreed to help U.S. investigators in their probe.
Timothy Parietti, who served as a managing director of the bank's money markets derivatives trading desk in Manhattan from January 2005 to December 2012, admitted on May 26 that he conspired to rig the London interbank offered rate for two years, according to a transcript unsealed Wednesday. The plea was reported earlier by Reuters.
"From early 2006 through approximately 2008, while in Manhattan, I was involved in a process of asking the Deutsche Bank employees who submitted the bank's Libor submissions, to take my trading positions into account in making their Libor submissions, so that my trades might be more profitable," Parietti told U.S. District Judge Paul Engelmayer, according to a transcript.
"I knew that this practice was dishonest," Parietti said. "I participated in this dishonest practice and I accept responsibility for my role. I'm sorry for my conduct." Parietti, who started at Deutsche Bank in 2000 and said he has an MBA degree from the Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania, is cooperating with the government in a relationship that may last several years, Richard Powers a Justice Department lawyer, told the judge. Parietti isn't to be sentenced until it's over.
Are Buybacks Overly Driving Stocks?
Investors love dividends and buybacks. Now it seems that there is a larger focus on share buybacks than there is on dividends. In fact, Standard & Poor's reported that S&P 500 companies with buybacks in the first calendar quarter of 2016 was up a sharp 12% from a year earlier — to a whopping $161.4 billion.
This $161 billion for the first quarter alone may sound impressive, and that is because it is the second largest buyback spending on record (versus $172 billion in the third quarter of 2007).
Another standout note is that for the 12-months ending March 31, there was a whopping $589.4 billion spent in stock buybacks – and that is a new record. For a quarter-over-quarter comparison, the first quarter's $161.4 billion spent on share repurchases was up 10.6% from the $145.9 billion versus the fourth quarter 2015.
While S&P said that companies make good on their first quarter promise to support stocks, the earnings per share impact has continued to rise and that reached 28.2% of S&P 500 issues participating. As far as which buybacks are leading the charge, they are in tech and IT, health care, and others. Still, they are not all unilaterally raising buybacks. Energy stock buybacks were minor at $2.1 billion, down 20% sequentially and down almost 63% from a year earlier.

300,000 Muslims Have Registered to Vote Since 2012
There are an estimated 300,000 Muslims who have registered to vote since the 2012 presidential elections, according to the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR).
This represents a 60 percent growth in Muslim registered voters, said CAIR, which is the nation's largest Muslim civil rights and advocacy organization.
Presumptive Republican nominee Donald Trump's calls for banning Muslims from entering the country and increasing surveillance at mosques following last year's terrorist attack by a Muslim couple in San Bernardino, Calif. has galvanized the community to become more politically active, The Washington Post reports.
Tensions skyrocketed again following similar Trump comments in reaction to the Orlando massacre earlier this month that was carried out by an American Muslim who declared his allegiance to the Islamic State.
Nurses Say "No" to Staffing by Robot: 5,000 Strike in Minnesota
Sometimes solidarity comes shaped like a popsicle. That's what one nursing assistant, on her way in for the evening shift at United Hospital in St. Paul, delivered to nurses picketing in blazing 95-degree heat.
Five thousand members of the Minnesota Nurses (MNA) walked out June 19, kicking off a weeklong strike at five Allina hospitals in the Twin Cities. The immediate sticking point is health insurance, but this is also a showdown over nurses' power on the job, as Allina pushes to hand over staffing decisions to a robot.
The company's unwillingness to budge an inch "leads me to believe they really are trying to get rid of the union," said 30-year nurse Gail Olson, a bargaining team member. "For patient safety sometimes we slow things down. They don't want to tolerate it anymore."
"If we don't stare Allina down, all these things we have right now will be gone," said post-anesthesia nurse Theresa Swehla. "If we give in on insurance, they have no incentive to bargain with us on any other issue." It's the biggest of four late-June strikes by National Nurses United affiliates, totaling nearly 10,000 nurses. Nurses are walking out at Kaiser's Los Angeles Medical Center, Brigham and Women's Hospital in Boston, and Watsonville Community Hospital in California.
IMF cuts US growth outlook
Inflation To Reach 720% In Venezuela As Melt Down Unfolds
The late president of Venezuela's daughter, ambassador to the U.N., Gabriella Chavez is reported to have $4.2 billion in American and European banks. Alejandro Andrade, Venezuela's treasury minister from 2007 to 2010 and a close associate of Chavez, has $11.2 billion sitting in an HSBC account in Switzerland. According to Business Insider quoting a report from the New York Times, 87% of Venezuelan's don't have enough money to buy food.
According to the same report, 72% of the average wage is set aside just for food; if you can get it, because most stores just don't have any. A good few people have begun to smuggle food across the border from Colombia, but that has incensed Mr. Maduro, currently the Venezuelan president and Chavez protégé.
Over the last two weeks, the meltdown has picked up pace with food riots, protests and lootings country wide. There have been reports of attacks on Chinese owned businesses because the country is so deeply indebted to that country. As Ken Rapoza in a Forbes article states, "not even $50 oil can save Venezuela from itself."
Inflation, according to the IMF, will reach 720% in 2016 and the GDP will contract by 8%. So the question is this, why hasn't parliament, which is now controlled by the opposition party, impeached him? Well, believe it or not the judicial system backs him up and his constant ranting about the U.S. being at the bottom of all of their troubles. The rhetoric hits home with a lot on the left, effectively splitting the country. So can this situation continue?
Royal Bank of Scotland 'plans further 900 job cuts in UK
Royal Bank of Scotland plans to cut 900 jobs in the UK, taking the total number of staff losses to 2,700 over the past four months, according to Reuters.
The roles would be lost in IT and back-office positions across the bank's operations as the bailed-out bank attempts to cut costs in its bid to return to the private sector.
At the start of the year, RBS had 64,000 UK staff in the UK but since then jobs have been cut across most of its operations in retail, commercial and investment banking, as well as its IT functions.
Ross McEwan, the chief executive of the 73% taxpayer-owned bank, set a target to save £800m in 2016. While he acknowledged this could result in job cuts, he didn't specify how many roles would be lost.

Banorte-Ixe's recent tie-up was the last of the large bank consolidations in Mexico, but mergers between smaller players are another story.
Mexico's midsize banks Banregio, Ban Bajio,
Banco Multiva and Afirme could engage in M&A activity in
the near to medium term as some of the country's
banks struggle under shrinking profit margins and rising
The merger between Banorte and Ixe created
Mexico's third largest bank last year and may have
marked the last such acquisition of this scale in the
country's banking sector for quite some time, but
some consolidation among smaller mid-tier names is still
The four banks could be interested in merging among
themselves or at least buying a stake or fully acquiring one of
many beleaguered non-banking financial institutions known as
Sofoles and Sofomes, which have a combined market share of 5%
in the Mexican banking system.
While Mexico's economy has not yet felt the
impact from slowing US...

Turkey Protests Over Plan to Build on Istanbul Park Reveal Deep Anger at Erdogan
2013-06-02 03:55:07
ISTANBUL — Tens of thousands of protesters called for the resignation of Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan and fought police firing tear gas in central Istanbul for the second day Saturday. A defiant Erdogan declared he would not back down from a controversial construction project that set off the protests, but then called off the police. Denouncing protesters as "entirely ideological," Erdogan vowed in a speech to go ahead with plans to build a replica of an Ottoman-era barracks on what is now parkland off of Taksim Square in the heart of Istanbul's downtown. But he conceded there had been excessive use of tear gas and that citizens had the right to express their views.
Shortly after 4 p.m., police withdrew from Gezi Park and central Istanbul, a sign that the protesters had won the first round, and thousands soon headed to the park, where demonstrations against the construction plans had begun in late May.
Heavy-handed police raids Thursday and Friday against protesters encamped at the park had turned what had been a sit-in by environmentalists opposed to cutting down trees into a national protest against Erdogan, who's been in office 10 years and hopes to extend his stay by being elected president next year.
Demonstrations ran the entire day Friday throughout central Istanbul and continued until 5 a.m. Saturday, as police chased young protesters and fired tear gas at them throughout the night. As many as 100 demonstrators were injured, about a half dozen seriously, most due to teargas inhalation or being hit by canisters, according to Turkish news media.
The protest quickly spread throughout this city, where the legendary Bosporus waterway divides Europe from Asia. On both the Asian side and in posh districts such as Nisantasi on the European side, residents of all ages protested into the night by banging pots, flashing lights on and off, shouting, clapping and chanting "government, resign." The protest spread to Ankara, Turkey's capital; Izmir, Turkey's second biggest city, and to at least four other cities.
Saturday looked to be a repeat performance. Thousands of demonstrators gathered at Kadikoy, an Istanbul district on the Asian side, at 4:30 a.m. and marched across the Bosporus bridge, but police dispersed them with tear gas and water cannon before they could reach Taksim Square. Thousands more came by ferry over the Bosporus.
At about 2 p.m., the main protest began. Thousands of young people, many outfitted with half face masks, marched down the Istiklal, the main pedestrian street, chanting "The government should resign," and "Shoulder to shoulder against fascism." With each tear gas volley, the crowd backed off and scampered down side streets, where volunteers stood by with salve to ease the burning sensation. Then the protesters returned to the Istiklal and advanced once again. Those few businesses that were open, like the Starbucks, offered free food and drink to protesters.
On the roll-down shutters of the closed businesses, even at the Russian consulate, which lies off Istiklal, fresh graffiti called Erdogan the Turkish equivalent of an "s.o.b." and demanded a new government.
The protesters, who in a random sampling seemed to be from parties in opposition to Erdogan's Islamist Justice and Development party, would agree with Aisha, 25, who asked to be identified by her first name only. "This is beyond ideology," she told McClatchy. "It was a modest protest (at Gezi park) and then there was excessive use of force." As for Erdogan: "I think he's a dictator," she said. "He's doing things so fast." She said this was the first protest she'd ever attended.
The project at Gezi Park shows Erdogan's most and least attractive sides. A master-builder of Turkey's infrastructure, but impatient with delays and dismissive of critics, he has launched immense new projects, among them an underwater rail link between Europe and Asia; a third airport for Istanbul that would be Europe's biggest, and a third bridge across the Bosporus. He also plans a canal that would link the Black Sea and the Sea of Marmara, the vast lake that lies between the Black Sea and the Aegean.
But he rarely seeks public support before starting them, and when the Turkish board of cultural and national heritage conservation rejected the plans for the barracks at Gezi park, Erdogan blamed the opposition secularist Republican People's Party.
"They wanted to prevent it and rejected it through the board," Erdogan said. "When they rejected it, I said 'I reject your rejection,' because this is a historical work." He added: "How could the board reject this historical work? What are these boards there for? In fact to protect these historical works."
He stuck to his guns when the protests began. "We have made our decision. We are going to do this," he said. "If you have any respect for history, first research the history of Gezi Park." But on Saturday, he said there was no final decision on reports that the replica barracks would house a shopping mall.
"He is one-man rule. He does not have any respect for contrary views," said Hanife Candas, 56, a primary school teacher in the Bostanci district on the Asian side of the city.
Some protesters came only to protest the crackdown itself. Damla, 29, who asked that her full name not be used to protect her employment, said she was inside the Taksim subway station when the protest began. Police fired teargas close to the stairways leading to the station, then closed the exits and set off more teargas on grates that led to directly to where hundreds of passengers were confined. "It was like hell," she said.
At Gezi Park itself, police barricades that had closed the space off were piled in heaps, and people of all ages came by the thousands, to sit on the grounds. There were even two young Turkish women wearing headscarves, a symbol of religious observance for pious Muslims, who said they'd attended both days of protests.
"We are here to show our resistance. This park belongs to us," said Zeynep Zabiya, 22, a student of psychology. She and her friend, Aisa Sena, 21, a student of architecture, acknowledged that Erdogan is popular in much of Turkey, particularly in Anatolia, on the Asian side of the Bosporus.
But Zeynep said she had changed her mind about Erdogan as a result of his statements on Saturday. "He is taking this issue too personally," she said. "He is bullying people. It's like his ego is speaking."
It's by no means clear that the demonstrators will win in the end, for as they strolled around Gezi Park, there were no speeches, or even banners or lists of demands – partly because the demonstration is leaderless. Edogan's withdrawal of police may be nothing more than a tactical move – taken possibly to avoid scaring off foreign visitors at the height of the tourist season.
But what the protest seemed to show was an anger just below the surface that Erdogan is operating like a sultan, without feeling any need to consult, and not just on matters of urban construction.
Asli, 37, a psychologist at a local hospital who like others didn't want her full name used, said Erdogan's economic record, which has made Turkey one of the fastest growing countries in Europe, was intended to produce an "affluent minority" and a poor majority "who will be his loyal subjects."
But she reserved special condemnation for what Erdogan, through back-channel intimidation and direct attacks, has done to the country's media. "They are like the three monkeys," she said. "See no evil, hear no evil, speak no evil."

My Favourite Resources
I often get asked about the tools, plugins and divi theme resources I use so I thought it would be a good idea to create a resources page so you have easy access to everything. If you have seen me use something which isn't listed then please contact me to let me know what it is and I will add it here. I have split everything into sections to make it easier for you to find what you need as this list grows. Enjoy!
Resources Quick Links
In case you have been hiding under a rock and haven't heard of it, Elegant Marketplace is the first and and largest online store for Divi related resources. Child themes and plugins as well as a great blog, it is run by the people responsible for the Divi Theme Users Facebook group.
There is a wealth of information there and some great child themes and plugins by some amazing developers to help speed up your client projects. (I'm on there too 😉 )
Divi Space is another great Divi centric store for Child Themes and plugins. This is where you will find the fantastic Divi Switch Plugin as well as many others and Child Themes you won't find on other marketplaces.
The site also has a great blog with some really useful tutorials, a lot of which focus on manipulating Divi's PHP files to achieve greater functionality.
If you are just staring out building your list and don't require too much functionality then MailChimp is a great choice. However, if you really want to utilise your list to it's full potential then ActiveCampaign is an absolute must in my opinion. The sheer power of the email automation functionality is worth the price alone.

The JBG Companies' Reston Town Center West project has big plans for expansion.
JBG has filed a rezoning application and development plan with Fairfax County Planning to permit the addition of 1.3 million more square feet of development to what is currently being built in the development on Sunset Hills Road about one-quarter of a mile from the future Reston Town Center Metro Station.
The space is currently an office park, which JBG is in the process of repurposing by adding 40,000 square feet of restaurant and retail space to the ground floor of existing buildings. The 13.77-acre property already has two four-story parking garages.
The plan for the second phase calls for about 675,000 square feet of residential (about 700 units) in two multifamily buildings; 650,000 square feet of office space in three new buildings and ground floor retail throughout the property. The plans also call for 3,100 parking spaces.
JBG plans to construct the new office buildings on the southern side of the property along Sunset Hill Road, for maximum visibility from the Dulles Toll Road. The residential towers will be built to the northeast, closer to the W&OD and Town Center Parkway.
The county planning commission hearing has not yet been scheduled.
The first phase of RTC West already has leases signed for a nearly 10,000-square-foot Cooper's Hawk Winery, Nando's Peri-Peri and Mezeh Mediterranean Grill. It is expected to open some time in 2017.
Renderings courtesy JBG
Updated Thursday with information on what "VY" means.
JBG Companies' Reston Heights Phase II has a new name: VY at Reston Heights, according to signage at the construction site.
A JBG spokeswoman said this about the name:
"VY is an abbreviation of very, and creates a unique word that allows us to inject further meaning into it when the marketing campaign is launched. Once the name VY is inserted within the context of the brand, it will evoke the vitality and velocity of this new addition to Reston Heights."
The former site of the Reston International Center's convenience stores, a bank and a Chili's Bar and Grill were razed in recent weeks to make way for the mixed-use development.
The Westin Reston Heights, Mercer Condominiums and office buildings make up the first phase of Reston Heights, which was completed several years ago.
The second phase, approved by the Fairfax County Board of Supervisors in 2013, will have a six-story residential building, a 15-story residential building, a five-story building that incorporates a parking garage with residences and retail space; and a 10-story building that mixes office space, parking and retail space.
The plan includes 145,000 square feet of above-grade retail, 100,00 square feet of below-grade retail, 428,225 square feet of office and 498 residential units.
The only major tenant signed thus far is 24 Hour Fitness, a JBG spokeswoman said.
However, a rendering at the construction site gives a sneak peek into the cafes, shops and outdoor seating that will eventually be at the development.
(Updated 11:20 a.m. Monday with quote from Reston Kabob owner)
Reston Kabob, a locally owned restaurant in the Reston International Center's convenience center on Sunrise Valley Drive, will close its doors at the end of July, employees said.
The restaurant is the last remaining tenant at the convenience center located at 11844 Sunrise Valley Dr.
The 7-Eleven located two doors down from Reston Kabob closed its doors on May 31, and Sunrise Cleaners, located next door, also recently closed.
The departures are not a surprise as the area is slated for a massive redevelopment. Chili's Bar & Grill across the parking lot closed late last year, and a Wells Fargo Bank branch has been empty since last August.
Reston Kabob's Masoud Shoja says the restaurant is talking to dh are in talks with property owner JBG about possibly returning once the project is complete.
"It's more likely than not we will return," he said. "However, the projected completion date is set for 2017-2018 and a lot can happen from now until then."
The Shojas will still operate their other nearby restaurant, Grill Kabob, 905 Herndon Parkway.
Developer The JBG Companies is planning the second phase of its Reston Heights development, which will include a six-story residential building, a 15-story residential building, a five-story building that incorporates a parking garage with residences and retail space; and a 10-story building that mixes office space, parking and retail space.
The plan includes 145,000 square feet of above-grade retail, 100,00 square feet of below-grade retail, 428,225 square feet of office and 498 residential units.
No construction start date has been announced.
Plans call for a 15-story addition to the Reston International Center office tower, though JBG sold the building to American Real Estate Partners for $35 million February of this year.
JBG first had a plan for the area approved by the Board of Supervisors in 2008. That plan featured 498 residential units, 245,000 square feet of retail and nearly 430,000 square feet of office in six buildings.
In the newer plans, approved by the supervisors in 2013, the numbers are similar, but the design has changed to better engage with the surrounding environment.
Only the stand-alone Popeye's will remain as a holdover from current tenants.
There will be an entrance to the development from the Reston Parkway side, something the area currently lacks.
In a presentation to the Reston Association Design Review Board in 2013, Cunningham Quill Architects and Olin, a landscape architecture firm, said they were seeking a design that engages with the landscape and connects with the Wiehle-Reston East Metro station via bike and foot paths.
The new plans will also be harmonious with the adjacent Reston Heights project, also built by JBG. That includes the Westin Reston Heights hotel and the Mercer Condominium, as well as office space.

Title: Ecotonal changes and altered tree spatial patterns in lower mixed-conifer forests, Grand Canyon National Park, Arizona, U.S.A.
Author: Mast, J.N. , Wolf, J.J.
Subject: Dendrochronology, Ecosystem classification, Mixed conifer, Ponderosa pine (Pinus ponderosa), Spatial Dynamics
Abstract: This research analyzes patch development and determines tree spatial patterns along the lower mixed-conifer ecotone on the North Rim of Grand Canyon National Park in Arizona U.S.A.. Patterns of patch development were interpreted from spatial analyses, based on tree age and size, and past records of disturbance and climate. Five plots in the ecotone between mixed conifer forests and monospecific stands of ponderosa pine Pinus ponderosa were studied for patterns of patch development. The methods used include: 1 size-structure analyses, to compare species patch development; 2 dendrochronological dating of tree establishment; 3 tree ring master chronology, to determine periods of suppressed growth, compared to a Palmer Drought Severity Index; and 4 spatial analyses by species composition, size and age, with univariate and bivariate analyses of spatial association and spatial autocorrelation. We found an increased density of shade-tolerant and fire-intolerant species namely clusters of pole-sized white fir, and fewer large ponderosa pine.

Question about Kenmore Elite 45986 Front Load Washer
The washer now keeps making a huming noise and not able to open door or use any controlls
Posted by AHR1 on
The central control unit has detected a short in the motor contol unit. If a failure occurs during the high speed spin the door will be locked after 3 minutes.
Potential causes
1.Check the wire harness connections between the drive motor and the motor control unit and between the motor control unit and the central control unit.
2.Check the MCU... The mcu motor connector has 5 pins. pin 1 is at the top then 2345 going down
Pin 1 to 2 = 6 ohms
pin 1 to 3 = 6 ohms
pin 2 to 3 = 6 ohms
3.Check the Drive Motor
pin 1 to 2 = 6 ohms
pin 2 to 3 = 6 ohms
pin 1 to 3 = 6 ohms
4.Check the wire Harness

Aug 16, 2014 | Whirlpool Microwave Ovens
Hello 2cats - First, is the drain pump making a humming noise? If so, the unit could possibly have a restriction in the drain line. Try setting the cycle to spin only and verify if water pumps out. Other possibilities could be a faulty door lock, timer, pump, or control board not communicating correctly. In this case I would contact a professional to move forward accurately to properly diagnose and repair the washer.

10ml PinkSpot Concentrate
Like the snake, this martini inspired e-liquid has some serious bite ! A fierce blend of multiple flavours headlined by blackberry and a smooth cranberry flavour with a splash of citrus.
0mg Nicotine – These juices are a flavour concentrate and cannot be vaped straight from the bottle.
They are designed to be mixed first with VG/PG and nicotine.
We recommend using between 15 – 25% of flavour in a 60/40 VG/PG mix.

The center is small, but it has a nice array of gifts and a video about the park.
Very informative video, lots of pamphlets, store with touristy things, good attention from ranger/ staff onsite. Good start of hiking trails-not dog friendly. 52 steps from parking lot to center.
As frequent visitors to Acadia NP, we always stop at the Hulls Cove Visitor Center on our way into Mount Desert Island (MDI). The Visitor Center has an excellent large-scale topographical diorama of all of MDI, which can be very helpful in understanding where things are throughout this widely diverse park, where parkland is interspersed with privately-held land throughout the island. More than most eastern parks, the orientation that this diorama gives you, along with the very helpful services of the rangers providing tips on hiking, ranger-led activities and the Explorer Bus system, makes this a top priority for visitors to the park. Strongly recommended.
This is really just one large room and half of it is the gift shop. Don't get me wrong, I enjoy browsing the gift shops, but there was only one real exhibit and it was in a corner. The central feature is a large map in the room. It's fun to look at and informative. They did have a short movie they showed in a small theater next to the large room. That was pretty good. It has some basic information on Acadia.
I was curious about biking on the carriage trails and hiking up to Cadillac Mt. The rangers at the desk knew the map of the trails well and suggested the right hikes for me. I followed their directions and it was perfect. However, I also asked about the variation in elevations for the carriage trails. They didn't seem to have an answer. Could it be that nobody has asked in the past? They pulled out a topo map, and I could see that there wasn't too much of a climb on any trail.
FYI, I was prepared to show my Parks pass and they told me it wasn't necessary because I was there before the season opened. If you're going, check to see if they will be charging.
I wish the Park Explorer bus ran all year long! This is a good place to leave your car if you are here during the summer season. Lots of steps up to the building. You can purchase a Park pass here, and there is a gift store.

No. 2 LA SALLE (1-0) VS. No. 6 IMHOTEP CHARTER (1-0)
It's only Week 2, but Saturday night's matchup between La Salle and Imhotep Charter is expected to have the electric atmosphere of a playoff game.
La Salle, the Catholic League's five-time defending Class AAAA champ, is ranked No. 2 in Southeastern Pennsylvania; Imhotep, a Public League Class AA powerhouse, comes in at No. 6.
For Imhotep, the 6 p.m. contest at Benjamin Johnston Memorial Stadium is a chance to gain major respect for its program and the sometimes disrespected Public League.
Both teams impressed in their season openers. The Explorers easily handled North Penn, 34-7, and the Panthers raced past Cardinal Mooney (Ohio), 49-21, at Youngstown State.
Here is a closer look at the nonleague contest.
Follow on Twitter. Rick O'Brien @ozoneinq will be providing live tweets.
Internet. The contest will be streamed live at www.thesfbn.com.
Coaches. Drew Gordon is 76-20 (.792 winning percentage) in eight seasons at La Salle; Albie Crosby, a former West Catholic assistant, is 15-1 (.938) in his second year at Imhotep.
History. This is the first meeting between the squads.
Neighbors. For La Salle, it's a short drive down Cheltenham Avenue to Mount Airy.
Quick fact I. The Explorers' Zaire Franklin, a senior tight end and linebacker, played youth football for the Oak Lane Wildcats. One of his coaches was current Imhotep assistant Eric Richardson.
Quick fact II. Since Crosby took over last year, the Panthers have outscored foes by a combined 700-129.
Solid debut. In his first start for La Salle, Kyle Shurmur, a 6-foot-4, 215-pound junior quarterback, completed 16 of 25 passes for 181 yards and two touchdowns.
Return tallies. Imhotep scored twice on interceptions against Cardinal Mooney, with Shaquille Jones and Zahir Wright finding paydirt from 71 and 70 yards, respectively.
Junior catalysts. La Salle's Jordan Meachum carried 19 times for 108 yards versus North Penn; Imhotep's Nasir Bonner, a Division I-A prospect, netted 143 yards on 16 tries against Cardinal Mooney.
Big up front. Imhotep's offensive line features center Gordon Thomas (6-0, 305), guards John Carlo-Valentine (6-4, 285) and Aaron Ruff (6-5, 280), and tackle Taleem Muhammad (6-6, 300).
Quotable I. Gordon on the Panthers' mammoth linemen: "It'll be difficult. David Geppert [a 6-3, 260-pound senior] is the only one close to that size."
Injury report. Due to a concussion suffered in training camp, La Salle's Mike Koller, a senior defensive back, remains sidelined.
X factor. In addition to being a force at strong safety, Imhotep's Deandre Scott is a threat as a running back, Wildcat-formation QB, and punt returner.
Quotable II. Crosby on the Explorers: "It's La Salle. You know they're always going to be disciplined and well-coached."
Analysis. Key for La Salle is keeping Bonner and company from ripping off big gains. Imhotep can't allow Shurmur time to set up and throw to a sure-handed receiving corps.
Pick. The Explorers overcome the Panthers' size and speed advantage with late-game savvy. La Salle, 28-20.

To write a review click here.
We've already told our friends and family to use Steve Spain for their next real estate purchase, so the next step is to share our experience with the electronic world. Steve Spain is solid gold. In our real estate search, he was patient, thoughtful, flexible, and communicative. If you're looking for a top-quality realtor, it would be hard to do better than him. We met Steve while we were in the process of moving back to Montana, and in the throes of sifting through a difficult market in Bozeman. My wife initiated contact with Steve, as I hadn't yet moved back. In this scenario, some less thoughtful realtors might assume they needed to placate my wife's point of view all while waiting for the 'man' to get back in town. Steve did a great job of communicating with both of us, always maintained my wife as the primary contact, and never did anything to make her feel like she wasn't the lead (which she absolutely was). In addition to his professionalism, Steve possesses real estate know-how from decades in the building and construction arena. He builds houses and serves as the general contractor for local projects. If a property has problems, chances are he'll spot them and tell you what it'll take to make them right. Looking back, we can't imagine working with anyone else. Looking ahead, same thing.
