North Korea (Again) Claims It Will Nullify Armistice

North Korea cranked up the latest round of tension on the Korea peninsula on Tuesday by wheeling out a top military spokesman to declare that the armistice agreement that suspended Korean War hostilities in July 1953 would be "nullified" on March 11.
That is the date when the second stage of annual U.S.-South Korea joint military exercises are due to begin with computer simulations known as Key Resolve, following field drills involving about 10,000 South Korean troops and 3,500 U.S. service members.
It's a yearly routine for North Korea to portray the exercises as a prelude for an invasion and warn that it is bringing the peninsula to the brink of war. The reference to the termination of the armistice has caused particular alarm this year, however, because of the implication that there would be some sort of return to hostilities.
But as is typical with North Korean foreign policy behavior, the scrap-the-armistice threat is part of a well-worn strategic playbook.
In fact, the latest threat is at least the seventh time North Korea has said it would abandon the armistice dating back to 1994, when Pyongyang said multinational naval drills that year would void the agreement. South Korea's Yonhap News has a chronology of the threats here.
The most recent warning came in May 2009, two days after North Korea's second nuclear weapon test drew international criticism. North Korea said its military would "no longer be bound" by the 1953 armistice and that "the Korean peninsula will go back to a state of war."
Although the threats are routine, they can't just be ignored. In its 2009 threat, North Korea also said that it "will not guarantee the legal status" of five South Korean islands close to the disputed inter-Korean border in the Yellow Sea. In late 2010, it shelled one of them, killing four people.
South Korea is keen to show a tough stance following domestic criticism of an inadequate response to the 2010 shelling. It has warned it will retaliate to any new attack by targeting the "command leadership," suggesting it might target Pyongyang directly.
Officials and analysts in Seoul expect that North Korea may try to test new South Korean President Park Geun-hye with some sort of provocation. On Wednesday, local media reported that North Korea has declared a no-fly, no-sail zone off its coasts, suggesting a possible short-range rocket test.

The 23 June 2016 Brexit vote saw British voters reject membership in the European Union. This column introduces a new VoxEU eBook containing 19 essays written by leading economists on a wide array of topics and from a broad range of perspectives.
Most Read: This Month
After the Brexit vote, it is obvious to many that globalisation in general, and European integration in particular, can leave people behind – and that ignoring this for long enough can have severe political consequences. This column argues that this fact has long been obvious. As the historical record demonstrates plainly and repeatedly, too much market and too little state invites a backlash. Markets and states are political complements, not substitutes
The Greek crisis is one of the worst in history, even in the context of recorded 'trifecta' crises – the combination of a sudden stop with output collapse, a sovereign debt crisis, and a lending boom/bust. This column quantifies the role of each of these factors to better understand the crisis and formulate appropriate policy responses. While fiscal consolidation was important in driving the drop in output, it accounted for only for half of that drop. Much of the remainder can be explained by the higher funding costs of the government and private sectors due to the sudden stop.
Helicopter money is not just another version of unconventional monetary policy. Using simple central bank and government balance sheets, this column explains how helicopter money today is different from what Milton Friedman imagined back in 1969 – it is expansionary fiscal policy financed by central bank money.
With inequality rising and household incomes across developed countries stagnating, accurate monitoring of living standards cannot be achieved by relying on GDP per capita alone. This column analyses the path of divergence between household income and GDP per capita for 27 OECD countries. It finds several reasons why GDP per capita has outpaced median incomes, and recommends assigning median income a central place in official monitoring and assessment of living standards over time.
After decades of oil price rises, new extraction techniques for shale and conventional deposits mean that recent dramatic price falls will be here to stay. This column argues that, even with oil at $50 a barrel, global producers will invest to catch up with US-led technological innovation and so add 40 million barrels a day to production by 2035. This will revolutionise domestic energy policymaking, environmental commitments and global geopolitics.
One-dimensional indicators such as GNI per capita are known to be flawed measures of wellbeing. The Human Development Index (HDI) introduced dimensions of health and education alongside income. This column argues that an HDI adjusted for inequality and hours worked gives deeper insight into a country's economic standing. Using this composite measure, the US falls from first to seventh among G8 countries.
The vote for Brexit was seen by some as a vote of ignorance, laced with xenophobia. This column argues that it was not an irrational vote of the ignorant, but a highly rational vote by the same losers from trade as elsewhere across the world. To compensate them, efforts should be made to upskill displaced workers and build them affordable homes to rent in places where the new jobs are. Ignoring this rise of trade nationalism would be far more dangerous than leaving the EU.
Fiscal multipliers tend to be larger when the fiscal position of governments is stronger. This column argues that the link between fiscal multipliers and fiscal positions is independent of the business cycle. Although multipliers are generally larger in recessions, they are smaller during times of high debt, even during recessions, relative to what they would be if government debt were lower.
Policymakers use a well established traditional accounting method to analyse past paths and predict future paths of debt ratios. But the traditional accounting exercises underemphasise the role of economic growth. This column proposes a simple, extended accounting framework to recognise the importance of growth more fully and explicitly. It quantifies the role of economic growth in debt-to-GDP measurement for Ireland and Italy, who were similarly placed in 2012 but whose paths diverged significantly in subsequent years.
The positive relationship between wages and firm performance is well established in the literature, but much less is known about the relationship in the university context. This column addresses this gap by matching professors' wages with departmental performance measures from the UK's Research Excellence Framework. Across the full range of academic disciplines, departments that pay their professors more do appear to perform better. This is driven primarily by the relationship between salary and publications output, with no evidence of a positive relationship between salary and research impact.
Today's labour market in the US has much in common with that of the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Then, as now, there were few government protections for workers, fears over cheap immigrant labour, rapid technological change, and increasing market concentration. This column explores the lessons that can be drawn from the earlier 'Gilded Age'. The findings suggests that even as markets play a greater role in allocating labour, legal and political institutions will continue to shape bargaining power between firms and workers.
It has been widely demonstrated that parental divorce is associated with negative outcomes for affected children. However, the degree of causality in this relationship is not as clear. This column tackles this problem by using the level of gender integration in fathers' workplaces as an instrument for divorce. The results suggest a causal link between divorce and worse economic outcomes that persists into early adulthood.
Much of the damage from the Great Recession is attributed to the Federal Reserve's failure to rescue Lehman Brothers when it hit troubled waters in September 2008. It has been argued that the Fed's decision was based on legal constraints. This column questions that view, arguing that the Fed did have the legal authority to save Lehman, but it did not do so due to political considerations.
Increased hostility to immigration has been a key driver of the rise of right-wing populist movements across the world. At the same time, local governments – notably in the US – have designed work programmes to attract immigrant entrepreneurs to their areas. This column explores the types of businesses founded by immigrants and their growth patterns, and examines how these outcomes relate to immigrants' age at arrival to the US. Immigrant entrepreneurs experience greater volatility – they fail more frequently, but those that persist experience greater employment growth than their native counterparts.
Wage inequality was partly behind the vote for Brexit. This column shows how areas with relatively low median wages were substantially more likely to vote 'Leave', and discusses the likely implications of Brexit for wage inequality in the future. Increased likelihood of a recession, a negative shock to trade, reduced migration flows, and the possible loss of passporting rights for the City will all alter the structure of wages in ways that will need to be carefully monitored and studied in due course.
The dramatic and largely unexpected collapse in oil prices has sparked intense debate over the causes and consequences. This column argues that a broader energy perspective is now needed to comprehend oil's long-term outlook, and provides answers to several questions about the oil market in the global economy.
The UK's membership of the EU has been a key factor behind the City of London's emergence as a leading global financial centre. This column looks at the implications of Brexit for the City. While it is unlikely that many banks or other financial institutions will simply up and leave in the coming months, their expansion and hiring decisions may lean toward the remaining EU member states for some of their operations. And unless the politicians conducting the Brexit negotiations do their utmost to limit the damage, the loss of passporting rights is likely to have a significant negative impact on the UK financial sector.
The current refugee crisis has highlighted the importance of understanding how ethnic and cultural differences affect social cohesion. This column investigates the links between ethnicity and culture, and the relationship between diversity and civil conflict. It finds that globally, there appears to be little overlap between ethnic identity and cultural identity. Also, ethnic diversity per se has no effect on civil conflict. It is when differences in culture coincide with differences in ethnicity that conflict becomes more likely.
The German Council of Economic Advisors recently proposed a mechanism for the orderly restructuring of sovereign debt in the Eurozone. This column argues that the proposal suffers from some inherent weaknesses. The proposal builds on logical errors and embeds well-established ideas in a setup that suffers from serious limitations. It also neglects alternative strategies that favour targeting large debts as soon as possible.
Recent research into how monetary policy frameworks incorporate risks to financial stability has shown that policy affects both financial conditions and financial vulnerabilities that amplify negative shocks. This column argues that looser monetary policy improves financial conditions, but can in some situations worsen vulnerabilities through incentives for financial sector risk-taking and non-financial sector borrowing. Policymakers face an intertemporal trade-off between financial conditions and vulnerabilities which may impact a cost-benefit analysis of monetary policy.
The Global Crisis has renewed debate about the relationship between short-term interest rates and bank risk taking. Theory offers ambiguous and conflicting predictions. This column explores the relationship using confidential bank-level data from the US. Bank risk taking is found to be negatively associated with short-term interest rates, and this is more pronounced for highly capitalised banks. These findings can help inform the design of monetary policy.
Newspapers in times of low advertising revenues: Towards a decline in the quality of information at the media outlet level
Advertisers are deserting newspapers. Using the impact of television advertising on print media in 1968, this column argues that a reduction in advertising revenues will reduce the quality of newspapers. Ultimately, this may result in a less well-informed public.
Joining the EU raised the level of UK real GDP significantly. This column suggests that leaving the EU will very probably have a negative effect on UK GDP, but history does not tell us how strong this effect will be. However, history does suggest that the notion that there will be a faster rate of long-run trend growth facilitated by Brexit is not persuasive. The obstacles to better supply-side policy are, as ever, to be found in Westminster not in Brussels.
The UK must now formulate and execute an independent trade policy for the first time in over 40 years. This column summarises the catalogue of failure that has been the governance of the world trading system in the 21st century, and proposes Ten Commandments to guide UK trade ministers in the forthcoming negotiations.
Immigration was a major factor – perhaps the major factor – in the Brexit vote. This column asks what the result of the referendum means for the UK's immigration policy. It looks likely that the UK's negotiating position may coalesce around an 'EEA minus' arrangement. While free movement would not continue as now, this would not imply moving to a system that gives effectively equal treatment to EU and non-EU nationals; there would still be a considerable degree of preference for the former. The negotiations would likely be legally, economically, and politically complex, but this does not mean that it is not worth trying.
Student debt has been rapidly rising in the US over the last 20 years. This column explores how this rise is affecting borrowers and the economy today. With the college earnings premium near historical levels, student loans facilitate excellent investments on average, and most borrowers are paying down their debt with little risk to the overall economy. However, borrowers who attend low quality schools or fail to complete a degree face real challenges with repayment.
The UK's Brexit referendum is providing us with the first significant test of the new regulatory system. This column asks whether banks have sufficient capital and liquidity to withstand the 'shock'. Unless the global financial system as a whole is well capitalised, it remains only as strong as its weakest link. And while the UK authorities have done a reasonable job of strengthening their banks and financial system, a number of large European banks are seriously undercapitalised.
Some economists are approaching a consensus that the Eurozone's financial architecture is now resilient enough to withstand another shock similar to that of 2010-11. This column argues that such a view may be overly optimistic. Economic and financial instability persists in member states and the banking sector, and institutions to tackle a shock remain incomplete. While the Eurozone remains vulnerable to a bad shock, the blanket application of burden sharing without consideration of current economic and financial conditions is unwise.
For over four decades, the EU has managed most international trade policy on behalf of the UK. After Brexit, the UK government will have to reconstitute trade links with EU, with third nations while disentangling the UK from the commitments that the EU made on its behalf in the WTO. This chapter suggests some strategies for the UK government to follow in reconstituting its trade policy. The watch words should be simplicity and cooperation. Maintaining the goodwill of trading partners will be a very high diplomatic priority.
The UK's "Leave" vote could be seen as a vote against globalisation and its uneven impact on different parts of the country, rather than a vote specifically against the EU. The proportions voting for Leave were higher in the Midlands and North of England, where deindustrialisation struck hardest and where average incomes have stagnated. London, the UK's only truly global city, saw growth and a high share of Remain voters. This column argues that the new Conservative administration, swept in by the Brexit vote, should reinforce the very recent policy emphasis on economic growth outside global London and its hinterland.
Several models exist for the UK's relationship with the EU following Brexit. This column argues that from an economic perspective, joining the European Economic Area and retaining access to the Single Market is the best available option. However, given the importance the new UK government – and at least part of the UK public – attaches to imposing controls on immigration from the EU, this option may not be politically viable. The question the UK must address as it debates the aftermath of Brexit is whether the costs of the alternative are a price worth paying.
The Brexit vote has created particular uncertainty for London, the EU's largest financial centre. This column looks at the issues facing the UK's banking sector in the wake of the referendum: the right to conduct cross-border activity in the EU in future, the impact on flexible recruitment in London, the possibility of diverging UK and EU regulation, and the effect on bank profitability more widely across Europe.
On 23 June 2016, 52% of British voters decided the UK should leave the European Union, in a decision that went against the advice of most economists. This column assesses the quality of that advice, and argues that while gaps in knowledge may have hindered forecasts, Brexit can essentially be put down to three things: an unnecessary manifesto pledge by David Cameron, a lack of engagement by the City in the Remain campaign, and the pro-Brexit stance of some of the UK's major newspapers.
Guessing answers can undermine the effectiveness of multiple choice exams. Negative marking, in which incorrect answers are penalised, can limit guessing, but may bias the test against risk-averse test takers. Using Turkish university admission exam data, this column explores whether negative marking biases exams, particularly against women, who tend to be more risk averse. Differences in risk aversion appear to have a limited impact, especially for good students.
There are three trade policy challenges facing the UK outside the EU: it must negotiate a new relationship with the EU, disentangle itself from WTO Agreements it entered into as an EU member, and restore preferential trade with the many dozens of trade partners that are now covered by EU trade agreements. As difficult trade-offs are inevitable in all of these, politicians should decide how the preferences of UK citizens might best map onto these alternative arrangements. This column argues that the optimal solution is to combine future trade arrangements with domestic policies that compensate UK citizens who face the costs of trade agreements.
Open competition is regarded as a crucial 'preventative tool' that limits government discretion and abuse of power when awarding procurement contracts. However, various studies have identified numerous drawbacks to using open auctions when contracting is imperfect. This column discusses the effects of increased buyer discretion on public procurement in Italy. Increased discretion raises the number of repeated wins by contractors, suggesting long-term relationships between buyers and sellers. Furthermore, productive buyer-seller relationships appear to outnumber corrupt ones.
Experiments have revealed that humans often suffer from overconfidence in the accuracy of their information, or 'miscalibration'. This column uses data from surveys of CFOs to assess their ability to make financial predictions. The results suggest not only that CFOs are miscalibrated, but also that firms with miscalibrated executives appear to be more aggressive in their corporate policies. In other words, the overconfidence of the executive shows up in the company's policies.
Lacklustre growth seems to be the new normal almost everywhere in the world except for one area – CEO pay. This column uses data on UK publicly listed firms to examine whether weak governance leads to pay rises for CEOs that are not justified by performance. CEO pay asymmetry – pay responding more to increases in firm performance than to decreases – appears to occur mainly in firms with a low share of institutional owners able to exert external control. CEOs at such firms are also more likely to be paid for 'luck', with pay rises rewarding random positive shocks unrelated to performance.
Citizens of the UK voted to leave the EU, but voters in Scotland and Northern Ireland expressed a strong wish to remain. Taking a trade perspective, this chapter argues that resolving border issues will be central to finding a Brexit outcome that preserves the UK in its present form. Continued membership of the EEA – with Scotland either a part of the same country or a fellow, independent member – would be the best outcome for the UK.
To some, the Brexit referendum was a failure by economists to persuade UK voters that leaving the EU would entail major economic costs. This column argues for a more nuanced view by making two points. First, it questions whether there really is a consensus about the costs. While all the mainstream estimates were negative, they ranged from rather small to nearly 10% - a range that hardly sounds like a consensus. Moreover, the key mechanism - Brexit's impact on productivity growth - is not something economists really understand. Second, a rational voter could accept the cost as a tolerable price for having greater independence from EU decisions. Economics does not tell us that a voter who makes such a choice is ignorant, irrational, or economically illiterate.
Governments and regulators are commonly assumed to offer special protection to the stakeholders of large financial institutions during financial crises. This column measures the ex ante cost of implicit shareholder guarantees to financial institutions in crises, and suggests that such protection affects small and large financial institutions differently. The evidence suggests that in the event of a financial crisis, stock investors price in the implicit government guarantees extended to large financial institutions, but not to small ones.
The recession has left a legacy of non-performing loans on Italian banks' balance sheets. Policymakers in Italy understand well the importance of correcting their banks' problems to foster a healthy economic recovery. This column argues that reforming the judicial and extra judicial processes for recovering collateral offers the potential of improving banks' balance sheets and enhancing financial stability, not only by increasing loan collections directly, but also by improving borrowers' incentive to service their existing debt.
The outcome of the UK's referendum on EU membership has prompted much soul-searching in the economics profession, which was nearly unanimous in anticipating negative economic consequences from a vote for Brexit. This column presents the July 2016 Centre for Macroeconomics survey of experts, which asked for views on the role played by economic arguments in the referendum outcome, and whether institutional change is needed in the way that the findings of academic economic research – and the views of the profession as a whole – are communicated. While opinions are divided, many of the respondents who do not advocate institutional change still see considerable problems in the relationship of the academic macroeconomic community with policymakers and the public at large.
Household income surveys underestimate income inequality because they fail to capture top incomes. A popular solution is to combine the household survey with data from income tax records, though for countries like Egypt these records are not available, leading to an underestimate of inequality. This column argues that data on house prices can instead be used to estimate the top tail of the income distribution. Using this method the Gini index for urban Egypt increases from a survey-based figure of 0.36, which suggests that it is one of the world's most equal countries, to 0.47.
As the Irish economy is deeply integrated with the UK's economy, Brexit poses especially severe challenges for Ireland. This column considers a future in which the legal basis for the UK's economic relations with the EU, and hence with Ireland, is thrown into doubt. A UK withdrawal from the Single Market would raise questions relating to trade 're-diversion', foreign direct investment, the Irish peace agreement, and assured access to British natural gas supplies.
In theory, a poor country with a low saving rate but good growth prospects can build up its capital stock by running a large and sustained current account deficit. This column asks whether this is feasible and productive in practice. A substantial number of countries in recent decades have been able to run large current account deficits for as long as ten years, but such episodes typically do not end happily. Foreign finance does not appear to be the cure for countries with low domestic savings.
Government employee absenteeism is often a serious problem in developing countries. One potential reason is government positions being appointed as a kind of patronage to reward political loyalty. This column presents the results of an intervention designed to address government doctor absenteeism in Punjab, Pakistan. The programme provided government inspectors with a smartphone app to streamline information flows, and improved inspection rates. The results support the political patronage hypothesis and provide encouraging support for data-driven policymaking.
International financial spillovers from emerging markets have increased significantly over the last 20 years. This column argues that growing financial integration of emerging economies is more important than their rising share in global trade in driving this trend, that firms with lower liquidity and higher borrowing are more subject to spillovers, and that mutual funds are amplifying spillover effects. Policymakers in developed economies should pay increased attention to future spillovers from emerging markets, particularly from China.
It has been suggested that the vote for Brexit marks the first step of disintegration in Europe. This column argues that if the European integration process is pursued wisely, it still carries the promise of enduring peace and growing prosperity. But EU policymakers must devise a process of integration that strengthens Europe's competitiveness to such an extent that the advantages of EU membership are clear to member states' citizens.

"Being a system electrician for a utility I know how important it is to lower our carbon foot print and save money. So it wasn't hard to sell me on geothermal. I called Kraus & Sons and Adam Kraus came out to my house. He found that we had an over- sized unit in our home. Which was causing the mold in our home. The unit was cooling our house to fast and not removing enough humidity from the air. Adam resized the system to a 3 ton geothermal and now the extra humidity and mold are gone. The house stays at a comfortable temperature whether we are heating or cooling. Kraus & Sons did an excellent job with the installation and are very friendly and professional. The directional boring for the geothermal loop field was completed in a neat and clean manner. I would recommend Kraus & Sons to anyone." - Mike B.

Mammograms Can and Do Save Lives
- The American Cancer Society estimates that 40,000 women will die from breast cancer this year. When it comes to life or death – and the quality of days in between – most of us prefer to be safe, rather than sorry, although there has been some debate in recent months as to the importance and efficacy of mammograms. A few articles even suggest that mammogram screening doesn't help detect breast cancer or save lives. But the world's top breast cancer specialists – including those right here in Vail... MORE →

What Hurts More Than a Mammogram?
- We know there's no substitute for inner beauty. But when it comes to the external variety, women are well schooled in the "no pain, no gain" philosophy. Whether it's huffing and puffing through a spin class or seeing stars during a bikini wax, beauty takes work. And no small amount of practice, either. So why do so many women put off or avoid getting potentially life-saving mammograms? Discomfort? Awkwardness? Last year, breast cancer survivor Geralyn Lucas visited Vail as the featured speaker...

Oh My Aching Head!
- Anyone with a bad headache is likely mumbling the same mantra: "Make it stop!" Unlike pain elsewhere in your body, a bad headache really can't be ignored. Headaches come in many varieties, but each fits under the umbrella of either primary – like the most common tension headache, migraine and cluster – or secondary, headaches which have an obvious cause such as hangover, head trauma, brain tumor or infection. While some primary headaches are brought on by stress or dehydration, others are hered... MORE →

Vail Valley Medical Center Is Planning For Its Future

Fitting existing uses, and future uses, in limited space is a goal that's been years in the making.A few years ago, medical center officials started looking at ways the facility could better use that small parcel of property — in a neighborhood that also includes homes, lodges and the town library — as part of an ultimately-abandoned plan to use part...

Last year Yanco's mother – a triathlete and seemingly the ultimate specimen of good health – was diagnosed with stage 4 breast cancer. "It's been a rough year," Yanco says, adding that her mother continues to fight. "I wanted to give back and do something. You know when you feel like you can't do anything to he... MORE →

One Man's Passion for Pink
- Russ Lacoste was on a casual trip three years ago when he stumbled upon an unexpected scene at Vail Mountain. Hundreds of people flocked the slopes skiing and snowboarding clad in pink. Some were sporting head-to-toe costumes, others wore feathers, many donned placards and carried signs bearing names and dedications to loved ones lost to cancer. Like a collective swirl of profound, contagious energy, the group tethered nearly every passerby to its cause. The sad reality is that when nearly 8 mi... MORE →

Pink Vail Signage Upcycled by Women Re-entering Workplace
- How can old event signage help women in need and reduce waste? In 2012 and 2013, over 40 signs were created to spread the good word about Pink Vail. That's a lot of vinyl! Many of the signs had outdated information and couldn't be used again. Rather than throw them away, however, we collaborated with Denver-based Mission Wear to create 48 one-of-a-kind Pink Vail tote bags made from the old banners.

The Grand Junction Police's Bomb Squad is holding training exercises Thursday at the Mesa County Landfill.
Officials say the training will take place throughout the day and while they don't expect it will make a lot of noise, weather conditions can affect sound levels.
Officials say not to worry and ask that you stay away from the area as the training is closed to the public.

Apparently, its very good to be the #1 ranked high school athlete in the country.
Jeannette senior Terrelle Pryor is probably the youngest nationally recognized athlete…to have his own action figure. From my hometown paper, the Tribune Review,
A North Hills man came up with the idea to carve out a Pryor figurine. Kevin Main, who recently moved here from Cincinnati and heard about Pryor through some co-workers at Mellon Bank, makes the figures as a hobby.
"I started hearing about this Terrelle Pryor kid, so I Googled him and read about all the hype surrounding his football career," said Main, 31, a sports enthusiast and autograph collector. "I thought it would be cool to make him. I looked at a few photos and decided I would make a couple figures."
Being from the area, and seeing highlights of Mr. Pryor on the news, I do have to say, he is good. Very good. Good enough to have his own action figure? Sure, why not. If somebody took the time to make a Kendrell Bell action figure (i loved Bell when he played for the Steelers…but seriously!), why not give one to Pryor? Of course, there is probably some concern that this action figure might blow Pryor's ego up to astronomical proportions, but honestly, if the national recognition, the coverage on sports center, and everybody telling you "how good you are" since the age of 10 didn't do it, I doubt a six inch action figure is going to do the trick.
For those wondering, Mr. Main is not making any money off of the Pryor action figure (he's only made two of them anyway), he's just a guy who enjoys making action figures in his spare time. After looking around on the internet, the next one that he should work on, is definitely this one.
Tribune Review: Jeannette's Pryor a popular figure

The Glass Menagerie
by Tennessee Williams
Character Role Analysis
It totally makes sense that Tom is the protagonist because he's the one telling the story and the narrator is almost always the protagonist. We get his thoughts and we see his character sympathetically.
The protagonist has to be Amanda because in the classic plot of a tragedy, she fulfills the role of committing to a dream and then having that dream completely squashed.
Doubtlessly, the protagonist is Laura. She's the only one that, we, the audience, don't get annoyed with all the time or feel the need to judge on the basis of his/her awful moral decisions, and she has all these great protagonist qualities like being perceptive and kind and beautiful. She even has the fatal flaw built in, what with the shyness and all.

More showers made into the area than what was indicated or expected. Most of the shower activity has been north of the I-20, but we do see a few showers south of I-20 as well. Tonight expect the scattered showers to continue through the night and into early Monday morning. Overnight low in the mid to lower 50's.
We will experience a brief warm up ahead of another cold front with our highs stretching into the upper 70's by Wednesday. It's too early to say whether there might be severe weather with it but it bears watching. It will play a role in trick or treating as its expected to hit Thursday night and bring lots of rain.
Once the cold front passes the temperatures will drop. Early indications look like it wont be a drastic cool down, like what we saw this past week, however, some computer models are indicating it might be a big cool down.

I've read all or most of the posts here about moving from b2evolution to WordPress, and I haven't found a definite answer to my own question about the process.
I installed WordPress in a seperate "test and fix" directory, imported all my posts from b2evolution (and from an old Blogger blog I kept back in 2003--WordPress's import features are fantastic!), and I have been cleaning up my data in preperation for launch. My question is, I want my WordPress blog to replace my b2evolution blog, and I want the WordPress blog to have the same URL as the b2evolution blog.
Do I simply delete the b2evolution data from that directory and copy over all my WordPress files from the "test and fix" directory? Do I need to tinker with the WP_config file? How do I set things up so that my WordPress blog can be found at my old URL where my b2 blog used to be?

After the U.S. downgrade: A reminder of how much debt still needs to be re-rated
On August 5 Standard & Poor's downgraded the credit rating of the United States to AA+ from AAA.
What's happened to the debt of the United States since then?
Treasuries have rallied and sent yields to historic lows. Last week the yield on a two-year Treasury fell to 0.19%. The yield on a 10-year Treasury closed the week at 2.06. That was slightly above the low set on Thursday of 1.97%. That was the lowest yield on the 10-year Treasury since 1950.
There's no way to escape a certain amount of Schadenfreude. There is pleasure, admit it, in seeing the market thumb its nose at Standard & Poor's, the credit rating company that got the mortgage-asset market so terribly wrong and helped create the global financial crisis by giving AAA ratings to so much paper that quickly demonstrated that it didn't deserve an AAA rating by collapsing in price as the underlying mortgages went sour.
But I wouldn't let the grim pleasure at Standard & Poor's discomfiture become your primary emotional reaction to the rally in U.S. debt markets. That main emotion should be worry. This rally isn't a sign of health in the financial markets. Read more
Maybe the euro debt crisis is really a developed economy demographic crisis
I don't know what the evolution of the euro debt crisis looks like in the United States at the moment, but from Europe it's got more twists and turns than an early hominid family tree.
When I arrived in Italy about a week ago now, the crisis narrative was all about contagion—Would Italy and Spain catch the Greek disease? With the U.S. debt downgrade and the plunge in global stock markets, the headlines shifted. Corriere della Serra, for example, blared, "Obama fails to stop market rout" in Italian, of course.
And then in the last few days the focus has shifted again. Now the worry is France, and some Europeans are starting to say that even the strongest EuroZone economies have a debt problem. Read more
I don't think stocks have broken their long-term upward trend but that's a worry that means this market will take a while to base
You'll be hearing a lot of talk over the next days and weeks from the technical analysts about the damage that's been inflicted upon the condition of the markets. That's one reason, they'll say, that this market won't bounce back immediately from its extremely oversold current condition and begin a new rally.
But what does that mean when you translate it?
Actually, it's pretty straightforward. What the technicians are saying is that the market's plunge has taken stocks down to levels that make it hard to tell whether this is a short-term correction in what is still a market that is trending upward in the longer term or if this drop has broken the longer-term upward trend and the market is about to drop further.
For a while it was possible to believe that this decline would take the Standard & Poor's 500 back to its November 2010 lows near 1170. Read more
The cooking oil indicator says inflation has peaked in China
I'm getting a ton of email yesterday and today from readers asking whether to buy, when to buy, and what to buy. Being down 500 points on the Dow Jones Industrial Average does raise those kinds of questions.
I do have one concrete suggestion in answer to all that—and it's based on a bit of good news yesterday out of China.
The government in Beijing has lifted its ban on price increases in cooking oil.
Don't laugh. This is huge. And I think it's a signal that you can start to ease your way into (or deeper into) Chinese stocks.
Here's my thinking. Read more
10 picks for a low/no growth global economy–and they're certainly cheaper than they were a week ago
Find me some growth! Please! Anywhere in the world.
Europe isn't growing—the weaker economies are all locked into austerity budget cuts. The U.S. isn't growing—unless you call 1.3% annual growth in the second quarter growth—and the budget cuts in the debt ceiling deal sure aren't going to accelerate this economy. India is slowing. Brazil is slowing. Even China may be slowing.
So is it any wonder that the stock market is in a deep, deep funk. (Maybe we should call a 512-point drop on the Dow Jones Industrial Average something more than a funk, huh?) Sure stocks are reasonably priced or even cheap by historical standards—but that assumes something like normal economic growth. Do you see it? Anywhere?
And let's be very clear on this: Without some growth there's zero chance that the deeply indebted developed economies are going to dig their way out of debt. Or that stock markets will regain their legs and reverse the 10% drop of the last nine days.
What's an investor to do? Well, as my contribution I'm going to give you 10 stocks that I think can still give you some earnings and revenue growth even in this slow global economy.
But let's start with a quick survey of the growth—or lack thereof—landscape. Read more

This fall has been exciting for streaming media as the top media players—Apple TV, Amazon Fire TV, Roku 4, and Chromecast all have new models. I wish I could tell you which model to buy. The hardware on these devices has been improved and mere specs won't really help make your choice. To this list of the top four media streamers, I add the Nvidia Shield, because, well, you need an Android TV streaming device too. All of these devices are easy to use with the Roku 4 and Fire TV having the simplest menus.
Amazon Fire TV ($99)
The second generation Amazon Fire TV is continues to be a top pick for streaming devices. It continues to be easy to use and streams beautiful quality.
Buy this media player if you are:
Best Features:
Roku 4
Roku has always been the media player that I recommend for those who are confused by technology or for those who have family members that are technologically challenged. The Roku 4 is the cream of the crop and a must if you have a new 4K UHD TV.
Buy this player if:
Best Features:
Apple TV (4th Generation) ($149 – 32GB, $199 – 64 GB)
The newest Apple TV has finally got it right. It can download apps from an app store—more than just streaming, also QVC shopping, weather, games—that were always better suited for a big screen. The apps have been improved and work as well as they do on iPads and iPhones. While it doesn't have 4K, the picture quality is amazing.
Buy this player if:
Best Features:
Chromecast — 2nd generation
The new dongle is a disc shape, but otherwise it works much the same as the first model. It's a little more reliable, easier to take with you on the road, and its content comes from your phone or tablet through the Chromecast app.

Recognizing the need for all educated people to have a level of fluency in information and computing related topics, the Department of Computing Sciences offers a new option for obtaining that fluency and for documenting the accomplishment with a certificate.
The certificate addresses the goals set forth in a report from the National Research Council:.
FIT individuals, those who know a starter set of information technology skills, who understand the basic concepts on which information technology is founded, and who have engaged in the higher level thinking embodied in the intellectual capabilities, should use information technology confidently, should come to work ready to learn new business systems quickly and use them effectively, should be able to apply information technology to personally relevant problems, and should be able to adapt to the inevitable change as information technology evolves over their lifetime. [1]
The FIT certificate recognizes that most of our graduates will not aspire to careers in computing, but that all will have many occasions to draw on the problem solving approaches and the higher level thinking abilities inherent in the computing field. Unlike other options for a major, minor or concentration, the FIT certificate comprises only courses with no prerequisites, courses that are accessible to any student at the university.
The certificate requires four courses. One required course, Databases for Many Majors addresses the universal need for understanding of database technology, how to use it, and how databases are constructed and used. An additional required course serves as a capstone and requires both that the student bring together the concepts learned in the other courses and that the computing topics be connected with the student's major field. The capstone requires that the student's advisor or someone else in the student's major department provide some input on the chosen topic area for the capstone experience. This addresses the growing interest in interdisciplinarity.
The remaining two courses for the certificate come from a list of courses that have no prerequisites and are thus accessible to all students at the university. Choices include Computing and the Web, Computing with Images, Information Security and Protection, and others. The choices offer diversity and will appeal to most students.
In summary, the FIT certificate provides a fundamental understanding of the computing technologies of the 21st century. It prepares students for general understanding of the technologies that will greatly influence the way they live and work, and the ties that understanding to their chosen major field of study.

Crisp, insightful, engaging, and thoroughly researched, "Prejudice in Harry Potter's World" turns the tables on literary critique. Brown shows uncommon, in-depth knowledge of the Harry Potter canon. And she delves straight into her analysis of social themes in J.K. Rowling's work without pulling any punches. First, the book provides a detailed outline of the social hierarchy in the so-called "wizarding world." Then, the author offers perceptive and highly relevant commentaries. Each chapter focuses on how a select group contributes to wizarding society and helps to maintain the social order.whether by embracing their own oppression or by oppressing others. What are some of the consequences of institutional discrimination in Harry Potter's world and how do they compare with social trends in the real world? This book provides all the answers. Not authorized by J.K. Rowling.

I complied with the dispute instructions on the back of the original bill which included sending a written explanation of the circumstances by certified mail and a proof of delivery receipt.
A month later I got a second notice stating that if I didn't pay the $20.00 it would be turned over to a "licensed collection agency" and additional fees would be incurred.
I see that there are an additional 71 entries involving this same company for this very thing on this site.

Canadian Government surrives defeat
As Queen Elizabeth and Prince Philip were honouring four fallen RCMP officers today, a nation turned its attention to The House of Commons in Ottawa. A vote was held on whether to ratify a coalition budget with the NDP, or to effectively dissolve Parliament and call an early election. Days ago, a young rookie MP crossed the floor and joined the governing Liberals, leaving the Conservatives. With all MP's towing party lines it came down to three Independents. [more inside]
Blogs are advertising: Elections B.C.
Elections BC (Source: CBC) is having a tough time keeping up with all the bloggers "publishing partisan messages during the current election campaign.". Under current law they are asking all bloggers to register as advertisers, while also going on record as being open to changing the law.
Canada gives up sovereignty to US
Days ago, Canada's new ambassador to the US said that Canada was already part of the controversial US Missile Defence plan. Today Prime Minister Paul Martin finally stopped dithering and declared that Canada would not join the controversial program. The American ambassador to Canada is confused by this... confused that Canada would choose to relinquish it's sovereignty to the US.

CVM, Timing, And Phase 3 0 commentsNov 7, 2012 3:16 PM | about stocks: CVM
I have heard chatter about not believing Geert and his cohorts over at Cel Sci (NYSEMKT:CVM). Look, it's been a long journey. But I still see CVM as one of the most opportune biotech investments on the market right now. Obviously all of their chips are in the Multikine basket right now, and occasionally I go to their site to get info. The info below hasn't changed, but after reading it, I can tell you I feel more confident with this stock.
I am certainly long CVM, and I plan to be long CVM for a while. But even for the traders out there who get impatient, any news on Multikine will trigger a spike. I have a few shares that I will dabble with and sell for a profit (outside of my base investment in CVM). But with 4 more years of a biotech friendly President, I suddenly feel more bullish on CVM.
Here are some updates from their site:
Steps taken to reduce the risk of failure of the Multikine Phase III trial:
The most common reasons for Phase III study failures or the failure to receive approval to sell a drug, other than the drug not working, are:
1. Phase III study that is not reviewed by the FDA and not acceptable to the FDA:
Multikine Phase III study was reviewed in detail and changes were made to the Phase III protocol based on FDA's comments.
2. A study that is too small:
The Multikine study will enroll 880 patients, which is a very large number, particularly in this population, and one that enables the study to be appropriately powered to evaluate achievement of the study endpoints.
3. The clinical endpoints are not relevant:
The Multikine study follows the overall survival of the patients, which is considered to be the "gold standard" of endpoints in clinical trials. The clinical endpoint cannot be more relevant.
4. A change in treatment protocol between Phase II and Phase III without additional studies:
The Multikine Phase III study is the same as the Phase II study; no changes were made. Consequently, we reasonably anticipate the potential that the Phase II results could be representative of the results that we hope to achieve in the Phase III trial.
5. Insufficient attention to manufacturing issues:
The Multikine manufacturing process is validated and CEL-SCI has built a dedicated manufacturing facility for Multikine. The manufacturing facility is designed and built to meet US FDA and EU regulations and requirements for the manufacture of sterile injectable products (such as Multikine).
