Initial configuration will deal with Agent Orange applicants
IBM Corp. is on a fast track to help automate part of the Veterans Affairs Department's disability claims system to deal with an anticipated influx of Agent Orange claims later this year.
IBM was awarded a $9.1 contract to collaborate with VA developers to develop and implement the new claims processing system by November, according to a July 2 news release from the VA. The goal is to permit more accurate and faster claims processing due to the anticipated surge in disability claims beginning in late 2010.
The expected sharp increase in disability claims coincides with a new regulation that goes into effect implementing a presumption of service connection for three disabilities: B-cell leukemia (hairy-cell leukemia) associated with Agent Orange exposure in Vietnam, Parkinson's disease, and ischemic heart disease.
VA seeks vendor to automate Agent Orange claims processing
The first use of the new claims processing system will be limited to this set of disabilities, but over time, it will cover other conditions, the VA news release said.
The system being developed by IBM is expected to be more than a digitization of paper processes. Instead, it will implement a new end-to-end processing workflow.
"Automation will substantially reduce processing time and increase accuracy while simplifying the way that veterans interact with the claims process," the news release said.
The new system will guide applicants through automated, program-assisted menus to capture their information and medical evidence. VA estimates the new system, in its initial configuration, may assist as many as 100,000 veterans.
IBM, of Armonk, N.Y., ranks No. 17 on Washington Technology's 2010 Top 100 list of the largest federal government prime contractors.

SALEM, Ore. (AP) The maximum fine for motorists caught talking on their cellphones or texting while driving would increase from $250 to $1,000 under a bill that is being considered by the Oregon Legislature, a move intended to make distracted driving a more serious crime.
The Senate Judiciary Committee on Tuesday approved the bill proposed by Senate President Peter Courtney, D-Salem, with two members dissenting.
Albany police Officer Robert Hayes, speaking for the Oregon Association of Chiefs of Police, said there are simply not enough officers to always enforce the law. He told the committee that he often passes drivers on their cellphones as he is responding to a more pressing call.
"If there is no fear of getting a citation, there is no fear of committing the violation," Hayes said.
The current law that went into effect in January 2010 prohibits motorists from texting or talking on their cellphones while driving. Drivers are permitted to use hand-free accessories to talk on the phone, but texting is illegal in any circumstance.
Courtney said he hopes to change the way Oregonians think about texting and talking on the phone while driving.
"If it was my way, we would treat distracted driving the same way we treat drinking and driving in this state," Courtney told the Associated Press. "And I think one day we will."
Sen. Betsy Close, R-Albany, who voted against the bill, said she's worried the fines are too steep considering many of the violators are young people.
"My concern is that the maximum fine is high, and that we have a law on the books already," she said.
The number of motorists cited for violating the ban increased since the law went into effect in 2010. Between 2010 and 2012, state troopers issued a total of 4,586 citations and 6,752 warnings, according to police statistics. In 2012, state police issued 2,151 citations, more than twice as many as in 2010 when police issued 1,012 citations.
In 2011, the Legislature closed a loophole that allowed drivers to talk on hand-held cellphones for work-related purposes. Now, the exemption is limited to a handful of professionals.
Sen. Jeff Kruse, a Roseburg Republican who opposed the measure, said he would prefer if the bill applied to all forms of distracted driving, including eating or putting on makeup.
"If we're going to pass a bill like this, I'd rather it be more all-encompassing than just focusing on the cellphone," he said.
In the first six months of 2012 there were 155 reported crashes, one of which was fatal, caused by distracted drivers on their cellphones, according to the most recent statistics available from the Oregon Department of Transportation. In 2011, there were 202 reported crashes, four of them fatal, for the entire year.
The bill would allot approximately $123,000 to the Oregon Department of Transportation to put up signs notifying drivers that texting and talking on the phone is illegal.
Rep. Carolyn Tomei, D-Milwaukie, introduced a similar bill in the House that would set the maximum fine even higher, at $2,000.
KATU's Shellie Bailey-Shah will have more on this story tonight at 4 and 5 p.m.

The Navy's submarine chief lays out the four coordinated 'Ps' that form the collective plan to maintain the nation's strong toehold in the undersea domain.
"[The undersea environment] is the one domain in which the United States has clear maritime superiority—but this superiority will not go unchallenged. A growing number of nations are developing capabilities to find and defeat submarines and exploit the undersea domain for their own purposes. At the same time, commercial and academic interests are monitoring and exploring the undersea domain to unprecedented degrees. To keep our undersea advantage, we need a combination of new operating concepts, innovative technology, and the continued proficiency and confidence of our Sailors."
—Chief of Naval Operations Admiral Jonathan Greenert, memo to the current Strategic Studies Group
Our nation enjoys control of the undersea domain that was established during the Cold War. Today, the challenge is to sustain and grow that dominance in an era of rapid technological change and smaller budgets. The U.S. Navy will rise to that challenge by building smarter with a plan that coordinates people, platforms, payloads, and partnerships.
What we call undersea warfare actually encompasses activity that ranges from the seabed to space. Military effects from the undersea domain support the air, surface, cyber, land, and space domains. Therefore, the degree to which we are successful in sustaining undersea superiority will affect the military outcomes and strategic influence in multiple domains.
From the very beginning, the reason to take warfare beneath the waves has been stealth—the ability to operate unobserved, even when far forward. Undersea forces' observability is so low that the adversary can never be sure they are not present. For this reason, stealth is a force multiplier for the side with undersea dominance, and a paranoia multiplier for the side that does not. Over time, science will improve the ability to detect what happens beneath the surface of the ocean. However, for the immediate future, the ocean will continue to be the most opaque of the operating domains.
Presently we have a position of strength in undersea warfare, but that advantage will be squandered if we fail to recognize and plan for the pace of change that will accompany emerging technologies. If we invest wisely, we will prevail, in peace and in war.
Emerging Trends
First, the demand for undersea capability will continue to increase. Combatant commanders and national decision makers recognize that undersea forces leverage the most opaque warfighting domain and are uniquely capable of providing a range of options with strategic impact—from phase-zero intelligence collection to major combat operations. The undersea force is a low-density, high-demand asset that provides a large return on investment. It delivers precision effects—kinetic and non-kinetic—in areas where other forces simply cannot operate. Undersea forces have no visible footprint and a short logistics tail. They bring autonomy, endurance, stealth, sensors, and firepower—often in one package.
Second, long-term influence will hinge on the ability to continue to deter, dissuade, or defeat a near-peer competitor. The undersea force is particularly qualified to meet this need. The concealment afforded undersea forces allows our national decision makers to expand their own decision space and diplomacy options by leveraging ground-truth intelligence—which is often very different from rhetoric and posturing. This superior knowledge generates negotiating advantages for diplomats. Diplomacy backed by credible combat power often succeeds where appeals to moral principles fall short. If diplomacy, dissuasion, or deterrence fails, undersea forces can immediately shift away from their stealth posture and act quickly with a profound degree of surprise, force, and lethality.
Third, the United States will continue to have a need to prevent non-state adversaries from harming our vital national interests. Undersea forces positioned in the right locations can operate inside the decision cycle of these potential enemies and provide a range of diplomatic and engagement options necessary to act decisively—from the sea lanes to far inland.
Fourth, the U.S. military has an increasing need for a force that can operate with freedom of maneuver in places where the adversary attempts to deny access. Our undersea forces are able to slip in, neutralize targets both at sea and ashore, and stay there indefinitely. The ability to arrive at the decisive point without expending weapons for self-defense provides a high return on each weapon on each submarine.
Fifth, cyber warriors will most likely fight each other to a draw, leaving behind a battle space that is limited in both electronic and communications support. This must be a part of prudent planning for the future. Commanders at the tip of the spear will need to operate from commander's intent and broad operational guidance, with limited links to higher headquarters. Operational commanders will have to be patient as undersea forces take on the enemy with scant reporting while the fight is on. The independence ingrained in the undersea-warrior ethos during World War II and the Cold War will thrive in these conditions.
The Strategy: People, Platforms, Payloads and Partners
Undersea forces, operating forward with a range of capabilities bolstered by an innovative payload strategy, will be ready to meet the evolving strategic defense guidance: "Sustaining U.S. Global Leadership: Priorities for 21st-Century Defense" and the CNO's tenets, "warfighting first, operate forward, be ready."
People: People are the backbone of our undersea weapon system. The basic skills required to operate a submarine undetected in the undersea environment will not change, but the undersea warrior will continue to adapt to rapidly evolving technology and the resulting operating concepts. Future undersea warriors must continue to be comfortable operating in a world of ambiguity and risk, armed with commander's intent and very little additional guidance. Our submariners pioneered decentralized operations during World War II and have continued this culture ever since.
Platforms: The ballistic-missile submarine force will continue to be the nation's most survivable insurance against the threat of nuclear attack, and the Virginia class will be the workhorse of the attack-submarine force into the future. However, the future undersea-platform strategy is more than submarines. Given the current trends of federal spending, production will likely remain constant, and designs will change slowly. Consequently, submarines must be complemented by affordable, unmanned vehicles with short development cycles. The capability of fixed and mobile arrays, distributed netted sensors, and autonomous unmanned undersea vehicles (UUVs) will be necessary to take the best advantage of the combat power of each submarine. The Maritime Patrol and Reconnaissance transition from P-3 to P-8 is well under way and enjoying great success, and will form the cornerstone of broad-area antisubmarine warfare. Arleigh Burke – class destroyers have a significant and growing undersea-warfare (USW) capability that nicely complements both submarine and air assets. Because they perform equally important tasks in other domains, time-sharing these highly capable, but fewer, multi-mission platforms will also add to the challenge facing the USW commander.
Payloads: The greatest warfighting return will be generated by proper investment in future USW payloads. The attributes that will provide that return are endurance and autonomy. Autonomous UUVs can gain access at depths deeper and shallower than submarines, farther extending undersea reach. Autonomous aerial vehicles launched from undersea expand the situational awareness and striking power of individual submarines.
In the face of rapidly evolving threats, development in these areas will also necessarily have to be rapid, and we should expect these payloads to migrate from state-of-the-art to obsolete in just a few years. This short technology half-life should drive us to using inexpensive materials and showing a strong preference for innovation that can be quickly put into operation. Payload programs with long development cycles should be critically evaluated for relevance and potentially canceled to free resources for near-term innovation. To the extent that we keep the peace, we should feel comfortable throwing a lot of payload vehicles away as they become obsolete.
Partners: We must develop partnerships among all undersea stakeholders, to include joint and coalition partners. In many cases, their capabilities complement our own. And in some cases, our partners will have superior technology. Moving forward across warfare communities and with international partners requires effort to build trust, sharing both technology and experience whenever possible. The emergence of new undersea capability is necessary for our national security, but future resource constraints dictate that it must be a coordinated effort to ensure we achieve the maximum combat effectiveness.
The submarine is very capable in most undersea-domain locations; however, some inaccessible locations or missions may not be conducive to a submarine. Thus, relying on the broader team would be necessarily more efficient and timely. As we move into the littoral areas and work the interface between undersea warfare and expeditionary warfare, no partnership will be more important than the one with the mine-warfare and mine-countermeasures community. The torpedo of the future and the offensive mine of the future will be hard to distinguish. By effectively coordinating the undersea expertise of our various Navy communities, the combined force will be more effective than the sum of the individual parts. Our unified undersea forces will be lean and effective, with credible combat power across all phases of warfare.
Special Partners: Spanning the range of our strategic categories are Navy SEALS. They are the people with whom we partner closely and who function as the world's most rapidly evolving undersea payload. As land wars start to wind down and we re-establish our habitual working relationship, they are already energizing our creativity in our most vigorous experimentation programs as we work together to fully leverage the impact of undersea access.
The U.S. Navy undersea community, with strong support from our military and civilian leadership, is committed to staying ahead of the potential threats and to preserving our undersea-domain superiority. The Chief of Naval Operations designated Commander, Submarine Forces to lead that effort. It is an exciting task, arriving at a perfect time to stimulate the creativity of our people and our partners in other warfare communities.
Vice Admiral Connor is Commander, Naval Submarine Forces/Commander, Submarine Force, U.S. Atlantic Fleet/Commander, Allied Submarine Command.

I was recently helping a client near Wollongong who owns a Holiday Park organise the start of debt recovery for debtors that had left without paying their account.
Whilst filling the paperwork out, they asked if we could draw up Terms of Trade for their business. With help from my senior Manager, we sat down and discussed what were the problems created by the customers that had leave without paying.
We drafted up Terms of Trade for their business, with clauses in place directed at preventing the common problems they had encountered. Now they are instigating the new checking procedures to help ensure their business is protected moving forward into the future.

Good news for those with Nokia Lumia 820 or 920s in either Germany (Vodafone) or Italy (Vodafone, H3G) as you can reportedly now fetch the latest OS update for your phone aka 'Portico' or build 10211.
WPArea.de has been able to verify that the update is rolling out for those in Germany, while our friends in Italy (Plaffo) have received numerous tips that the OS refresh is going out there as well.
Windows Phone 8 10211, as we've discussed before, brings numerous fixes and enhancements to the OS, including SMS call reject, persistent Wi-Fi, Wi-Fi hotspot and addresses stability issues including those pesky soft-resets.
In addition to the OS update, users can expect new firmware, which on the Lumia 920 fixes the soft-focus problem with the 8.7MP PureView camera (see our before and after comparison here). Other enhancements include audio-leveling and an improved (more sensitive) light sensor.
Old Firmware (L) versus New Firmware (R)
Use can manually check for an update by heading into Settings –> Phone Update –> Check for updates, otherwise they will be notified by a message. The update is downloadable over-the-air and should take about 20 minutes.
Nokia and carriers are expected to rollout Portico over the next few weeks, wrapping up in March.
Via: WPArea.de, Plaffo; Thanks, Ulas, Jannik and Dario for the tip!

Mayor Don Wesely said today's ratification of a new police contract is an important step toward attracting and retaining Officers and keeping the city safe. The Lincoln Police Union, which represents 261 Sergeants and Officers, voted in favor of the three-year contract, which makes salaries comparable with other cities the size of Lincoln.
"I want to thank the Lincoln Police Union for its hard work as we negotiated this new contract," Mayor Wesely said. "This new contract will help reduce the loss of trained officers to other cities and to other occupations."
The contract was signed today, and the City Council is scheduled to vote on it August 14. The new contract is effective August 17, the first day of the first pay period for the new fiscal year.
The pay increase is an average 10.23 percent for the first year, 3.5 percent for the second year and 4 percent for the third year. Mayor Wesely included $1,157,000 for salary increases and $160,000 in benefit increases for the Police Department in his proposed 2000-2001 budget.
The compensation plan eliminates the Master Police Officer designation while providing a higher payment range that incorporates more desirable "steps" within the range. The new contract includes 12 steps for Officers (at 3.9 percent between steps) and nine steps for Sergeants (at 3.4 percent between steps).
Other provisions increase the amount of sick leave that can be accumulated, the Field Training Officer pay, the clothing allowance, the reimbursement for body armor, the standby pay and the longevity pay.

In its collection of Christmas quotations, the Salt Lake Tribune included this one by former Colorado Gov. Dick Lamm: Christmas is a time when kids tell Santa what they want and adults pay for it. Deficits are when adults tell the government what they want and their kids pay for it.
That is one way of looking at the current mess, although it is vastly oversimplified. Americans do not get to vote directly on spending. They do not get to award Social Security recipients higher cost-of-living increases. They do not get to decide whether to continue a war against an intractable enemy or to call this countrys military personnel home. They do not get to fire contractors who bill thousands of dollars for parts that actually cost tens of dollars. They do not get to approve construction of projects that would benefit them and nix funding for projects that benefit other people far away. They do not even get to decide when the potholes in their federal highways get patched.
No, Americans elect people to handle that for them, or to direct agencies to handle it. While every citizen can contact his congressional representatives and senators about every single issue, the truth is that in this one person-one vote nation, not every constituent wields the same influence. Those who make the most noise which, most often, means those whose interests are promoted by well-funded organizations that hire persuasive lobbyists and promise votes in the next election are most likely to be heard.
That is one reason that the fiscal cliff still looms despite the fact that Americans want the people they sent to Washington so solve the problem now. Actually, they wanted it solved months ago, but the deadline looms. No one thinks the terms of sequestration will be good for this nation. Everyone wants a more nuanced solution.
Part of the problem is that they cannot agree on the details, but that problem exists because they have been presented with few details to analyze. As always, no one wants to give up anything at all, but Americans are sensible people. They know that the bill has come due; they know they have to share in paying it, and they know what they can afford, individually and collectively. The people we have sent to Congress know all that, too. They know what they have the power to do and what they cannot do. They also know that the distance between the Republicans plan and the presidents is not really all that large. They know the general shape of the eventual plan. They know quite a lot of what will be in it.
They could go ahead and approve all those provisions today or they could, if they were in Washington.
The American public deserves better than to be yanked around like this. For all that, at least 50 percent of them will squawk about every provision implemented, they deserve to know how much money will be taken out of their paychecks in 2013. They deserve to know what their tax rate will be and whether the Alternative Minimum Tax will affect them. They deserve to know whether their unemployment benefits will be extended. They deserve to know whether their jobs are funded after Monday. They deserve for Congress to do this week what it eventually is going to do. They deserve leadership and respect from people who were elected to serve all, not just some.
A stopgap measure isnt ideal, because it just postpones the day when legislators must craft a real plan, but at this point, a stopgap measure may be all thats available to protect ordinary Americans. We all should have to pay the costs of our government, and most are ready to pony up, but paying for our leaders intransigent refusal to lead is another story entirely. We dont deserve that.


text: In the Battle of the Aleutian Islands (June 1942-August 1943) during World War II (1939-45), U.S. troops fought to remove Japanese garrisons established on a pair of U.S.-owned islands west of Alaska. In June 1942, Japan had seized the remote, sparsely inhabited islands of Attu and Kiska, in the Aleutian Islands. It was the only U.S. soil Japan would claim during the war in the Pacific. The maneuver was possibly designed to divert U.S. forces during Japan's attack on Midway Island (June 4-7, 1942) in the central Pacific. It's also possible the Japanese believed holding the two islands could prevent the U.S. from invading Japan via the Aleutians. Either way, the Japanese occupation was a blow to American morale. In May 1943, U.S. troops retook Attu and three months later reclaimed Kiska, and in the process gained experience that helped them prepare for the long "island-hopping" battles to come as World War II raged across the Pacific Ocean.

Although manufacturing costs of the Xbox 360 will be cheaper than ever after the switch to the 65nm CPU platform codenamed Falcon, Microsoft will likely stick with its current pricing throughout the rest of the year. But that's not to say that there won't be some value added to help entice those on the fence to choose Microsoft's console.
Briefly spotted on Best Buy's online store, but now removed, were two pages that listed new bundles that added Forza Motorsport 2 and Marvel: Ultimate Alliance to both the Xbox 360 Elite and Xbox 360 Premium SKUs. Both consoles were listed at their current prices, indicating that the two games were an added value package.
Gaming blog Kotaku uncovered marketing images for both the aforementioned bundles mid-August, and the appearance of such bundles in Best Buy nearly confirms their pending existence on the market.
The packaging shown in the images also matches up with previous information provided by Microsoft's marketing, which added taglines "Go Pro" to the Xbox 360 Premium system while the Xbox 360 Elite displays "Go Big."
Bundling games with the Xbox 360 is already standard practice in Canada. Best Buy in Canada is selling Xbox 360 Premium with Forza Motorsport 2 and Amped 3, while Wal-Mart substitutes one winter sport with another by adding in NHL 2K8 with Forza Motorsport 2.

Joe Gandelman: Hoax comedy doesn't always buy you universal laughs
How could she possibly do it?
How could nurse 46-year-old Jacintha Saldanha possibly take her own life after two Australian radio DJs using bad accents crank-called a hospital in Great Britain, and tricked her on the air into transferring them to get confidential information on Prince William's wife, Kate Middleton?
How could the DJs and radio station be so unthinking, some wonder. How could she take a prank so seriously, others ask. How could the media be guilty of such overkill on a quintessential radio hoax call prank, still others wonder. And could the media that gleefully reported the hoax now be so hypocritical as to lambast the two young DJs, once the death became known, many ask.
DJs Mel Greig and Michael Christian expressed shock and grief. Grieg, quoted by The Daily Mail, said when she heard the news "'my first question was, 'Was she a mother?' ... It was the worst phone call I have ever had in my life. There's not a minute that goes by that we don't think about her family and what they must be going through."
I've been personally involved with two forms of a "hoax" — a hidden camera stunt and a DJ radio hoax — and I can understand the feeling what one family member said was the dead nurse's likely feeling of overwhelming "shame."
In 2001, I was on NBC-TV hidden camera show "Spy TV" in my incarnation as a ventriloquist. The set up was I walked into a fake office where a mother and her preschool-age-ish child was sitting, took out my dummy who interacted with them, got called into the other room, and put the dummy down. When the mother was called out of the room the dummy came "alive" and asked the little boy to help him to run away from me. The mothers of all kids taped (they selected the best kid) all signed releases and were in on the prank.
Several years ago I got a call from a radio show staffer in England. He said his show's host saw my characters on the Internet and because "we broadcast near a children's hospital and there are many sick kids. We wanted you to come on so our host could interview you and have you talk like some of your characters talking to little children to cheer them up." He said he wanted me to talk specifically to very young kids, and the host would tape it and edit it for time purposes.
It clearly was a hoax. The host asked some basic questions, then insisted I do a few jokes aimed for kids in the voices of some characters, then he'd say, "Oh, yes. That's classic comedy... You're really a great comedian." When I quickly sensed the set up, I angrily told him so and hung up.
This was an attempt to get me to say specific things for an edited bit, after getting me by appealing to my feelings for sick children. I felt beat-up, humiliated and victimized. Yes: I can imagine what Jacintha felt.
The Australian DJs' bit was not mean-spirited, but it left a host of victims. A mother of two will be laid to rest in India. The DJs' careers and lives will never be the same. Meanwhile, the radio station Southern Cross Austereo now says it'll donate rest of the year's ad profits to a fund for Jacintha Saldanha's utterly decimated family.
But you know the old saying: money doesn't buy you love. And hoax comedy doesn't always buy you universal laughs.

Trade and growth go hand-in-hand. When the 2008 global financial crisis hit, both collapsed.
Since then both have steadied somewhat. But recovery has been jobless in many countries. The biggest challenge that developing countries will face: sustaining economic growth, while maintaining their focus on reducing poverty and inequality. Trade can be an important weapon in the policy-maker's arsenal to help tackle these dual objectives.
Broadly, economists agree that declining levels of poverty have been accompanied by sustained periods of rapid growth and openness in all countries. In India, there has been a wealth of econometric work that demonstrates the links through which openness to trade has contributed directly to poverty alleviation – via growth and employment. More recently, Arvind Panagariya and I measured the impact of trade on poverty across different social groups – castes and religions – in India. We found that trade openness lifts all boats, for schedules castes and tribes, and for marginalized communities. Interestingly, the impact was especially strong in urban regions. Other research finds that states whose workers are on average more exposed to foreign competition tend to have lower rural, urban and overall poverty rates.
It is firms that trade, not countries. Firms are one of the main channels through which trade impacts welfare. Caroline Freund and Martha Denisse Pierola show that a small number of large firms have a significant impact on most countries' export growth and pattern of diversification, while most job creation happens within rapidly-growing small and medium-sized firms which are often downstream suppliers to these large firms.
If trade helps lift people out of poverty, creating wealth at the bottom of the pyramid, so what? As Atul Gawande says, what about the how? How do we come up with implementable solutions based on this knowledge? What might be some of the policies that maximize the impact of trade on poverty and shared prosperity?
First: Let's focus on gazelles – firms that grow and create value rapidly and consistently. These firms often look to international markets for growth. They are important because they are often engines of employment, technological innovation and growth. Even more, they could be indicators of a country's emerging competitive advantage. I've blogged about gazelles in the past, and won't repeat myself here. But suffices to say, we need to complement our focus on entrepreneurs, with a focus on productive survivors - or gazelles.
Second: We need a focus on clusters. Economic clustering helps create upstream and downstream linkages across firms, usually large firms with small and medium-sized firms, thereby creating a network. These linkages are important channels for the transfer of technology and offer an opportunity for SMEs to grow from sub-contracts and economies of scale. SMEs contribute only 28 percent of US gross exports - but they account for 41 percent of value-added exports, reflecting their role as intermediate suppliers. Clustering of firms helps to trickle-down the benefits of trading in international markets – for instance, through technological linkages with upstream intermediary suppliers. This has been the case with Volvo's bus and truck plants in Brazil, Mexico, India and China. As a case in point, domestic SMEs in Bangladesh that supplied to large exporters are more likely to be productive and grow faster, creating wealth at the bottom of the pyramid.
Third: Cities and trade are inextricably linked. Trade liberalization is associated with growth in urban agglomerations. In turn, cities provide the space for specialization and market access that facilitate trade. Cities attract and galvanize entrepreneurs and productive capital, and much of job creation – both in modern sector activities and in the informal sector – is overwhelmingly urban. 80 percent of global economic activity is generated in cities, activities that benefit from density and proximity – of goods, people and ideas. In a world of mobile capital and labor, cities remain critical nodes for trade because exporters and importers can benefit from economies of scale and access to large local markets. In turn, these exports help inject income from the rest of the world to the local economy, generating employment and income spillovers for city residents.
Trade is fiercely competitive. By focusing on firms, clusters and cities, policymakers can maximize its returns to people and places.
Many of us would be prepared
Many of us would be prepared to agree with the statements given in this article. The concern, however, how much additional debt could those gazelles, clusters and cities afford and who should be prepared to take additional market risks of their expansion - public or private investors? The issue also is how to keep at reasonable level inflation rate in the country and profit margins under respective projects.
Hi Andrey - thank you for
Hi Andrey - thank you for your comment. How indeed to find the money to focus on firms, clusters and cities? In resource-poor environments, public-private partnerships could certainly bolster the public purse for infrastructure investments. Often, changes in policy might require institutional commitment to regulatory reforms, without big financial commitments. If you're interested, the World Bank's study on 'Planning, Connecting and Financing Cities' documents innovative ways of paying for city-level investments.
Wow! In the end I got a blog

Hi David - thank you for your comment and I couldn't agree more!
i could not agree more with
i could not agree more with your conclusions. Companies do business as a consequence of which statistics demonstrate that countries trade, but they do not and cannot.
All businesses are located in a city, town or municipality and it is this level of govt which has the most immediate impact on the success of any business. as a rule tbese very govts least understand their impact on business and the economy. "Business friendly" communities are essential to the health of any country.
Thank you John! Local and
Thank you John! Local and city governments often have a number of policy levers available to them (the 'Mayor's Wedge') to influence economic outcomes, such as jobs, entrepreneurship, growth and trade. Like you, I believe, that these can be very potent tools and should be utilized effectively.
And I guess my main worry is
And I guess my main worry is less a failure to encourage and strengthen the local economy than the too amply opportunity to stymie economic development by accident. Local govts in most places are underfunded to a significant degree (even if property taxes are the most secure revenue stream there is). Placing significantly higher taxes on commercial/industrial land, for example, puts an entire local economy at risk, particularly during stressful times. Fee revenue is a silent, if destructive way to avoid property tax increases.
Let us also keep in mind that companies do not ever pay taxes, their customers do so. The political optic however seldom recognizes this as high rates and more fees are placed on "wealthy" businesses who can well afford the burden, until their customers can no longer afford the products. Local governments must be part of the solution to the economic development challenges we all face, not a source of the problem.
Think of a horse pull competition as a metaphor for society. The horses are the private sector, the only source of economic power. The sled is society, and societal costs, which the horses pull willingly. But is it the role of governments to add weight to the sled, encourage the horses to multiply, or to apply technology by adding wheels to the sled?? Too often local governments look for more rocks ro place on the sled...
Hi John - agreed, that is a
Hi John - agreed, that is a worry. Academics, development banks, NGOs and public practioners, are spending more time and resources to understand better how to ensure (as you put it eloquently) that local governments be part of the solution, and not a source of the problem. Thank you for your comments.
My worry is that local
My worry is that local governments are far more often part of the problem than they are part of the solution.
Think of a horse pull in
Think of a horse pull in which the horses are the private sector providing all of the energy to accomplish the task. The sled represents society and societal needs and expectations. What is the role of local (indeed, all levels) of government, place more rocks in the sled, encourage the horses to multiply, or facilitate the adoption of technology by adding wheels to the sled?? Too often, stuck between voters wants and financial constraints local governments find it easy to place more rocks on the sled...

Mischa AT necesitaba un nuevo diseño de página web y lanzó un concurso de diseño en 99designs.
Un ganador ha sido elegido entre 66 diseños de 17 diseñadores freelance.
alle toprestaurants
Hi there! I'm working on my first private business venture, setting up a website and Iphone app whereby I'm going to list the top restaurants of my country, and provide news and information on these restaurants, their chefs and in the future maybe food and wines. Think Michelin-star restaurants. The name of this online and Iphone restaurant guide will be 'alle toprestaurants', meaning obviously 'all top restaurants'.
Users of the Iphone app or visitors of the site can search restaurants in various ways, based on the amount of Michelin stars, prices, cities and so on. And through my app and site I will promote some restaurants or their promotional activities.
Through 99designs.com I got a fantastic logo (thanks again Owen!) and now it's time for the next step: a website. Let's start off with designing only the home page. I'll ask the winner of the contest to design two or three – very simple - subpages as well, so this 'extra' work is included in the award.
1) Dutch males or females who look for an upmarket restaurant to have lunch or dinner, or are interested in top restaurants in general, e.g. how the top restaurants have been rated by the various culinary magazines, the latest news on top restaurants, chefs, and so on. In general my audience enjoys life, likes going and eating out and has more than average financial resources available to spend. My target audience is mainly about 23-45 years of age, since new media (mobile applications, internet) are involved.
2) Owners or managers of the top restaurants, since I will target them to buy exposure or advertisements from me.
3) Since the site is connected to the Iphone app, the audience is as well Iphone and Ipod touch owners and users.
- Let's start off with only a home page
- The logo (see attached file) is the basis of the design of the site: the style, the colours, the simplicity and the originality. The background of the logo should be black, so replace white for black. Should you have trouble with the format of the logo, let me know.
- As was required for the logo, the site should have an upmarket, posh, reliable, yet modern, trendy, cool, bright, happy and young look.
- The used font should be modern and clean too!
- Please use (mainly) the colour black as background colour, since this represents the feeling of eating out, candle light, champagne, etc. The other colour that should be predominantly used is purple, the same purple of the logo. Main (larger text) texts in white with black background, some headers in purple. If graphically nice, some texts can be in black (writing) and white (background).
- Please be inspired by the site filoresto.fr. I truly like the design and look of the site, including the colours, and very important, the used font.
The home page should contain the following:
1) logo
2) slogan
3) 4 buttons
4) search possibility
5) photo slideshow of top restaurants
6) information on the Alle Toprestaurants concept
7) Iphone information
8) news
9) recommended restaurants
10) restaurants that offer a great deal
11) copyright notice
See the attached file for further information.

Today at 01:40:05 AMMaxipotter: I have no idea who MaxiPower is I have used this user name everywhere for at least 15 years O.o I should really get a more serious one but meh.
Yesterday at 11:24:11 PMFox: I wonder who Maxipotter is? Why does the name sound too similar to MaxiPower?
January 20, 2019, 06:29:27 PMFox: That would be cool to have, yes. Where the text in the ROM is uncompressed. - The huffman compression used in the gba games is not used in the nds game, so perhaps that may be one reason it wasn't done. I think it is some generic compression thingy. If someone did do it (and make the entire ROM uncompressed), perhaps I would be more inclined to work on my dark dawn editor. Hm?
January 15, 2019, 05:38:01 PMKyleRunner: Could someone please create a GSTOOLKIT compatible with Dark Dawn? I'll try to translate that one to my language as well (as I did with the first two games).

My current book project is called, To Be Possessed: "Religion" and the Purification of Spirits. An excavation of the category of "spirit possession," I consider first its creation as an early project of civil religion, next the ways the construct was implemented in colonial regulations of religion in the Americas, and finally the positive appropriation of the category by ethnographers and religious actors themselves. By closely examining philosophical, theoretical and discursive invocations of spirit possession as well as the empirical studies those models infiltrated, but also were influenced by, this study aims to show how the category worked not only as a descriptor of "primitive" religions but also, even primarily, as an exorcism the West performed on itself.

A weaker dollar and strong global economic growth over the next ten years bode well for U.S. agriculture, according to USDA's Agricultural Long-Term Projections, released in February.
The report, from the office of USDA's chief economist, said economic growth and population gains will boost demand for good and feed. In addition, biofuel demand will remain an important factor shaping the projections for global use, world trade, and agricultural commodity prices.
The depreciated dollar will continue to be supportive of the outlook for U.S. exports, USDA says.
Crop prices are projected to fall from recent record highs but remain above pre-2007 levels for many crops. Following the near-term decline in prices and planted acreage, strong demand and rising prices are expected to provide economic incentives for increases in plantings beyond 2015.
Acreage enrolled in the Conservation Reserve Program is projected to decline below 28 million acres in 2013-14 before rising back to close to 32 million acres by the end of projection period.
Highlights of the report by crop:
Lower supplies and higher prices resulting from the weather-reduced 2012 U.S. corn has led to lower domestic use and exports. Corn acreage is projected to remain high in the near term, with normal yields leading to an increase in production and a recovery of corn use.
Although corn-based ethanol production is projected to slow significantly, its continued high levels along with gains in exports and feed use will keep corn use high.
Following several years of adjusting markets, increasing producer returns are projected to lead to gradually rising corn acreage in a range of 88 million to 92 million acres after 2015. U.S. corn exports are expected to increase sharply from 2012-13 weather-reduced levels and then rise at a slower pace over the next 10 years in response to strong global demand for feed grains to support growth in meat production.
Export gains are projected strong to China, which account for about 40 percent of the projected overall growth in global corn imports.
After declining from their current high levels, corn prices are projected to begin increasing again by 2015-16 due to growth in feed use, exports and demand for corn by ethanol producers.
Strong wheat prices and expected net returns will boost wheat plantings for 2013. However, relatively weak overall demand growth for wheat is projected to lead to a decline in wheat plantings to 50 million acres by 2022.
U.S. wheat exports are expected to fall to under 950 million bushels annually over the next 10 years, with competition from the Black Sea region, wherewheat exports are expected to rise from 22 percent to 30 percent of global trade over the next decade. For the same time period, the U.S. market share is expected to decline from 19 percent to16 percent.
Wheat prices are expected to decline through 2014-15 reflecting near-term market adjustments. Projected price increases for wheat are more moderate than those for corn, reflecting smaller gains in use.
U.S. soybean plantings are expected to decline from high levels of 2012 early in the projection period, as prices and producer returns fall. Over the rest of the projection period, growth in both domestic use and export demand is expected to lead to increases in prices and returns. Soybean plantings are expected to increase somewhat before remaining steady toward the end of the projection period.
Strong global demand for soybeans, particularly in China, is projected to boost soybean trade over the projection period.
Competition from South America could lead to a reduction in the U.S. share of global soybean trade from 39 percent in 2013-14 to about 30 percent by 2022-23.
Strengthening demand for soybeans is expect to hold prices high through 2022. Soybean prices are expected to fall from recent highs, but are projected to rise moderately after 2014-15.
Competition from other crops will likely keep U.S. rice acreage from increasing in 2013. In the longer term, rice acres will rise on lower relative prices for competing crops.
U.S. rice imports are projected to expand over the next decade, but at a slower rate than in the past. Asian aromatic varieties are expected to continue to account for the bulk of U.S. purchases.
U.S. rice exports are projected to rebound from a low level in 2013-14 and increase over the next decade. Continued growth of U.S. rough-rice exports to Latin America (nearly all long-grain rice) is projected to account for most of the overall expansion of U.S. rice exports.
Rice prices are projected to rise after 2014-15.
Although lower cotton prices following the price run-up of 2010-12 are expected to lead to a reduction in plantings in 2013, cotton plantings are projected to rise through 2015 as prices and returns for competing crops decline over the next several years.
However, with cotton yields and cotton prices rising only moderately, producer returns are expected to decline relative to those of other crops, so upland cotton plantings are projected to decline through the end of 2022.
U.S. mill use of upland cotton is projected to rise moderately while cotton exports initially rise before leveling off after 2016-17. The U.S. share of global cotton trade is expected to decline later in the projection period.
Nonetheless, with a global trade share projected at 32 percent in 2022-23, the United States is expected to remain the world's largest exporter of cotton.

|Berkshire's spirits line.
Berkshire Mountain Distillers Inc., located in Great Barrington, and the Boston Beer Company, brewer of Samuel Adams, on Monday announced their collaboration in a multi-year project.
The two brews -- Samuel Adams Boston Lager and Samuel Adams Cinder Bock -- will be triple distilled in Great Barrington, then barrel-aged in wood. The collaboraters said because whiskey aging is a very complex and multi-faceted process it is difficult to pinpoint an exact release date. The projected timeline is for 2015.
Representatives of both companies tasted several beer styles and their distilled products from trial distillations before deciding which Samuel Adams brews to use. The two brews have markedly different taste profiles. The hopes are to create two whiskies just as different from each other.
"There are many parallels between making spirits and brewing beer," said Jim Koch, founder of Boston Brewing. "Marrying the two not only makes sense, but will also produce a drink that beer- and spirits-lovers alike can enjoy."
Berkshire Mountain Distillers was created in 2007. It produces Greylock Gin, Ethereal Gins, Ragged Mountain Rum, Ice Glen Vodka, Berkshire Bourbon and New England Corn Whiskey in the Berkshires' first legal distillery since Prohibition.
The Boston Beer Company was founded in 1984 and has become an iconic craft brewing brand. It brews more than 50 styles of beer.

Debby and Eric Hall have been houseboating for twelve years
with friends and finally decided to purchase their own houseboat March 3rd
of this year. Over the years they have always wanted a place to go that would
be fun to take their kids and grandkids to and make many memories at. They
always would go to the Carolinas beach for
years and thought about getting a place there but it was too far away and it
didn't workout. Instead they were looking at cottages in the Lake Cumberland
area but realized they wanted to be on the water so Eric was looking online and
found houseboatsbuyterry.com and decided to go with a houseboat, and to that
day they have never once regretted that decision.
They bought a Conley Bottom rental boat that is a Horizon
and is 17'. It is a four bedroom boat with all queen size beds so they can
accommodate lots of family and friends. It also has two full baths and a cuddy
with a sink and mirror. They thoroughly love their party deck on top which half
of it is covered, and has a fly bridge. "It is a perfect because it is large
enough for everyone who comes to hangout," mentions Debby. Their favorite thing
about houseboating is being on the water, Conley Bottom, and their friends they
have met at the dock. Their boat is an old Conley Bottom rental boat which they
decided to keep its red, blue, and white stripes but add even more stripes.
Their boat's name is "CaptainbigE" which is a nickname that a coworker at
Eric's work gave him and since then it has stuck. He has a baseball hat with
the name and that is what Eric wanted to name the boat. Their daughter even
designed the logo for the boat.
They love how Conley Bottom is only three and a half hours
away from their hometown of Milford by Cincinnati so they have
been on the boat every weekend since March. "I think we've only missed one
weekend," says Debby. Since they are new to houseboating they have been in a
cove five times and the rest of the time they are on the slip.
Their favorite meal to cook on CaptainbigE is grilled salmon
and veggies. Eric loves to grill some pancakes and bacon which makes for a
great morning on the cove.
They enjoy having company on their boat and have had lots
since they got the boat. Their dear friends who got them into houseboating in
Jamestown were their first guests on their boat and helped them learn to drive
it and other things you don't think of when houseboating. Since Debby is a
teacher she has had several of her teaching friends and their spouses come on
the houseboat for a weekend as well. Debby and Eric have two kids a son who is
at Columbus State and a daughter who also lives in Columbus and is married and
has a little one year old who have been out to the houseboat a couple times.
Eric's sister and her kids who have been living in Japan are there for the summer and
have been houseboating many times with them. Debby's mom who has had a stroke
and is in a wheelchair has been out twice already!
"I love houseboating. I could stay out all summer but I know
I got to come back for family occasionally too," Debby comments. Besides
houseboating another fun thing we like to do which is close to Conley Bottom is
go to this new winery that has just opened up. It is only ten minutes away from
Conley Bottom. Whenever Eric and Debby have friends or family they always take
them to this winery. Norrie is the owner, and Debby has scheduled many private
tastings for her friends and family.

(NNPA)—"The Court's disregard for the realities of the workplace means that many victims of workplace harassment will have no effective remedy."—Ruth Bader Ginsburg, Associate Justice, United States Supreme Court
While the headlines have been dominated by the much-anticipated recent Supreme Court rulings on the Voting Rights Act, affirmative action and marriage equality, the court also issued two lesser-covered rulings that are an affront to workers' rights and their ability to seek justice if they face discrimination on the job. As with the ruling on Section 4 of the Voting Rights Act, these two decisions strip away critical protections granted under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act and continue to overturn decades of anti-discrimination protections.
It should be noted that like the disappointing Voting Rights Act ruling, the Title VII decisions resulted from a 5-4 ideological split, with liberal Justices Ginsburg, Beyer, Sotomayor and Kagan standing strong for worker rights, while the more conservative Justices Alito, Scalia, Thomas, Kennedy and Chief Justice Roberts voted to put the interests of powerful corporations above the rights of workers. When coupled with the court's evisceration of the Voting Rights Act, these decisions reflect an alarming dismantling of decades of civil rights progress that can only be reversed by a shift in the balance of the court or principled, but difficult, interventions by Congress.
The decisions in both Vance v. Ball State University and University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center v. Nassar harshly narrow the interpretation of Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, prohibiting employment discrimination based on race, color, religion, sex and national origin. In the Vance case, the Court has made it harder for workers to bring a lawsuit for workplace discrimination when a superior creates a hostile working environment.
Writing for the majority, Justice Samuel Alito declared that an employer is only responsible for the discriminatory conduct of an employee who meets a new and more restrictive definition of a "supervisor." The court narrowed the long-standing Equal Opportunity Employment Commission definition of a supervisor so that it might now exclude the person who sets your schedule and directs your workflow and apply only to someone with the power to hire, fire, promote or demote.
Prior to this decision, employers have historically been diligent about monitoring issues of discrimination because of the threat of liability. The Supreme Court has now given employers an effective "out" by removing that liability.
