That's quite a lot of marketing rah-rah and "these guys say this and those guys say that" without actually quoting anyone or anything other than (surprise surprise) union talking points, but did you really need to post four different times? I'll save my fellow citizens some clicking and just reply once.
The No On 32 campaign represents more than two million teachers, firefighters, police officers, nurses, school employees, and workers in the manufacturing, retail, construction, health care and other industries.
To be accurate, the No On 32 campaign represents the unions themselves, does it not, the organizations that actually have the power to use the payroll deductions the prop seeks to restrict? Those unions do represent their members to their employers, but to say that a campaign whose goal is the continuance of the ability of those unions to extract dues from its members and spend them on political campaign activity rather than on collective-bargaining & negotiation actually represents the members themselves is a different thing altogether.
Prop 32 supporters claim the law will limit big campaign spending from all sides. But the reality is that it would restrict everyday Californians from coming together to have a voice in elections while creating massive special interests for the same groups funding the campaign.
In what way would it restrict an everyday Californian's ability to participate? Any one of us could still go donate to a campaign, or a candidate, or (gasp!) a PAC. The truth is, it doesn't restrict everyday Californians from coming together, it restricts unions and corporations from *ordering* them to come together and deciding which causes they will support with their payroll-deducted funds.
Prop 32 exempts thousands of big businesses, which aren't technically "corporations," but rather "LLCs" or "real-estate trusts" or any other form of business structure. This includes hedge funds, big Wall Street firms, insurance companies, and thousands of other business entities.
That's actually the first thing I've seen that gave me pause. In re-reading what's there, I think this item has a point - it was stupid for the authors to actually use the word "corporation" and use only that word in describing which business entities Prop 32 would affect. I guess I'd have to agree that based on the text the only ones af

As it looks like now, if it passes, that only foreign sides will be affected by this. Anything ending with an .com, .org, or .net will not be covered by this bill. The web is somewhat safe (atleast regarding to SOPA, don't know about PIPA though). Yes, it would still be censoring, but at least most of the internet won't be shut down now. Also there's going to be a Senate Hearing on SOPA Thursday, one Senator has threatened to filibuster the bill and Secretary of State Hillary Clinton is against the bill saying that it would spell the end of the Internet as we know it. http://americancensorship.org/

NEW YORK -- Joba Chamberlain generally roots for his former University of Nebraska teammate Brian Duensing. Not Saturday, though, explained the New York Yankees reliever while referring to his fellow Cornhusker as a "dork" in the nicest sense possible.
The 27-year-old Duensing takes the mound at Yankee Stadium in an American League Division Series for a second straight year, this time with the Minnesota Twins trailing two games to none and facing elimination Saturday.
Last October, Duensing took the loss opposite CC Sabathia in Game 1 in the Bronx, a day after the Twins won a play-in game against the Detroit Tigers to determine the AL Central champion. Duensing allowed five runs in 4 2/3 innings, including a two-run homer to Derek Jeter, in the Yankees' 7-2 victory.
"He's awesome, real laid back, kind of a dork," said Chamberlain, who teamed with Duensing in 2005 at Nebraska when the program reached the College World Series. "He's just a great dude, one of the people I've stayed in touch with and had the opportunity to watch come up and have success.
"He pitched against us here last year and nobody knew who he was. He didn't pitch that bad. He got the loss, which I'm happy for, but he's a great kid. He's been successful. I'm happy for him today, but tomorrow I want him to give up about 40."
As for the dork comment, Chamberlain explained: "BD is just BD. That's his personality. I mean, he's a great dude. But he does some dorky stuff every once in a while."
Both pitchers still live in Nebraska during the offseason, and see each other at Cornhuskers football games.
"I've been a little late to being back home the past couple of years and he's been home a little bit earlier," Chamberlain said, taking a playful dig at Minnesota's 2009 postseason exit at the hands of a Yankees sweep. "I haven't been catching many football games. But we catch as many games as we can together because they [Duensing and wife Lisa] come down [to Lincoln, Neb.] and say hello. Our relationship over the last few years has been great, just texting back and forth and calling and making sure he's doing all right and if he needs anything."
Duensing recalled last pitching in an elimination game as a starting pitcher in the College World Series. The left-hander went 10-3 with a 2.62 ERA in 53 appearances (13 starts) during the regular season this year. He entered the rotation July 23 in place of a struggling Nick Blackburn, who had a 6.53 ERA at the time.
"The way we've been playing throughout the season is what got us here," he said. "So I feel like we played in some big pressure situations already -- Chicago in Chicago late in the year."
The Twins have lost 11 straight postseason games, eight of those to the Yankees, but Duensing and teammates mostly shrugged that off.
"It's not like we're going out there and giving up or laying down," Duensing said. "We're playing all nine innings as hard as we can. Sometimes it takes some luck to get wins, and hopefully we can kind of switch that around."
Said teammate Brian Fuentes: "There's never that sense of panic. Obviously losing stings, but you don't see anyone really hanging their heads. It's not like guys are moping around, thinking, 'We're down 2-0 and we're dead in the water.' The bad news is we're down 2-0. But the good news is we're only down 2-0.
"I think of last year with Anaheim," Fuentes continued. "It was my first year with them last year. But I guess Boston had given them problems every year in playoffs. When asked about it I said, 'You know, I wasn't with Anaheim for the last five years when they got booted by them,' or whatever it was. I was like, 'It makes no difference to me.' We went out and ended up sweeping them and moving on. People kind of made a big deal like, 'They finally did it. They finally beat the Achilles heel of that team.' People want to talk about a 10-game losing streak and this and that. I wasn't here for that. Half these guys weren't here for the 10 games."

Caring and the Law

'Caring and the Law' considers the law's response to caring. It explores how care is valued and recognised, how it is regulated and restricted and how the values of caring are reflected in the law. It does this by examining the law's interaction with caring in a wide range of fields including family, medical, welfare, criminal and tort law. At the heart of the book is the claim that the law has failed to recognise the importance of caring in many areas and in doing so has led to the costs and burdens of care falling on those who provide it, primarily women. It has also meant that the law has failed to protect those who receive care from the abuse that can take place in a caring context. The book promotes an ethic of care as providing an ethical and conceptual framework for the law to respond to caring relationships.show more

Review quote
Although the laws and cases Herring discusses are from the United Kingdom, the book should have a broad philosophical and legal appeal to those interested in social justice and issues of care in other countries. The book reads as if it represents a lifetime of investigation into Anglo-American literature and British court cases on care and the law. Graduate students and practitioners alike would find its stories, philosophy, and analysis informative and moving. Those who specialise in one area of law may fruitfully dip into a single chapter because Herring carries his thesis explicitly and clearly through each section of the book. This is a carefully reasoned and widely researched book that makes a passionate plea for embracing the wider moral and social significance of a relational understanding of care where all of us should hold one another, society, and the state responsible for the human obligation of caring relationships. -- Adelaide H. Villamoare The Law and Politics Book Review, Volume 23, No. 12 If the law has a heart, this book is a more than adequate expression of its inner emotion, making it essential reading for all of those interested in or affected by legal intervention in this area. Given the author's accurate assertion that everyone cares or is cared for, that makes for a very wide potential readership indeed. -- Nicole Busby Journal of Law and Society, Volume 40, Number 4 ... a thoroughly researched, extremely well-structured and highly thought-provoking text on how the law addresses - or does not, as the case may be - the issue of care. This is a book every law student and graduate should read to assist them to lay down a solid foundation upon which to build their future practice. -- Sue Field Law Society Journal, Volume 51, Number 8 It goes without saying that this is an excellent book - erudite, wide ranging and stimulating. Jonathan Herring is a leading legal scholar of our generation. -- Helen Reece Social & Legal Studies, 23(2) ... a provocative look at the caring/law intersection that makes a worthwhile contribution to the ageing literature. -- Marshall B. Kapp Care Management Journals, Volume 15, No.2 This is an accessible, easy-to-read book; the structure is always clear, with everything signposted. Its socio-legal approach means that the realities of caring are never lost; instead arguments from scholars in a number of disciplines are not only set out well but also firmly placed in context. Concrete examples are used to assist (and sometimes amuse) the reader. -- Annika Newnham Child and Family Law Quarterly In this accessible and engaging book, Herring takes us on a journey into a world that lawyers often marginalise, yet it is a world that is of relevance to us all...[Caring and the Law] consolidates core scholarly activity, offers suggestions for improvement and reveals how and why caring relationships deserve more attention from policy makers and academics -- Grace James Feminist Legal Studies Caring and the law [has] immeasurable value in jolting one...out of traditional ways of thinking and bravely presenting a vision of a different world. -- Brian Sloan Journal of Social Welfare and Family Lawshow more

I'm trying to create a constructor that takes a variable number of arguments and I would very much like to keep things type-safe. I googled around and kept finding the term "Faux variadics" (Example: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh567368.aspx) However I'm not able to find any examples of how to use these Faux variadics, and I'd like to avoid having to look directly in the source file for std::tuple.
So does anyone know of a relatively simple example of these Faux variadics?

Speculation over the direction of the economy continues to take center stage. With the presidential election coming up in 2012, the economy will undoubtedly be the central issue on the campaign trail and will receive even more attention than it has up until now. Many analysts have made waves lately in forecasting a "double dip" recession, with at least a couple of high profile analysts claiming the recession has already arrived.
One of the more reliable barometers of the health of the U.S. retail economy, however, hasn't confirmed a recession. This particular indicator, in fact, is suggesting that the coming Christmas retail spending season may be up to par with last year's retail season. The indicator in question is the New Economic Index (NASDAQ:NEI), which measures the fortunes of five of the most important companies serving the retail economy. This index has correctly predicted the short-term and intermediate-term outlook of the consumer spending economy since before the credit crisis began. It's a composition of the five leading retail components of the economy, including sales, transportation, business services and hiring.
Here's what the New Economy Index looks like right now.
The index has made a fresh new 4-year high. The NEI is interpreted by watching how the two moving averages perform in relation to the NEI price line. When the 12-week moving average (black line) crosses below the 20-week moving average (red line) and then both moving averages trend discernibly lower, a downturn in the U.S. consumer economy of indeterminate length always begins. This hasn't occurred since the spring and summer of 2010 when the 12-week and 20-week MAs were in decline and the NEI price line was making a series of lower highs and lower lows after last year's "flash crash."
The rising trend in the NEI, along with its latest new high, is a reflection of a couple of things. It reflects how much spending power still remains with businesses in spite of all the talk about the high unemployment rate and poor sales outlook. It also shows just how much consumers – that is, those consumers with decent paying jobs – are willing to open their pocket books and make discretionary purchases in spite of being warned every day in the media that another recession is imminent. Until the NEI and its moving averages reverse significantly lower, an economic downturn isn't expected.
The positive trend in the NEI is reflecting either an optimistic mood among consumers (particularly those on the higher end of the economic spectrum), or else the anticipation of an above consensus retail spending season in the next few weeks. This doesn't assure that the trend will continue beyond the near term, however. To answer the question of how long this positive trend can continue it's important to look at two things, namely the longer-term cycles and the fiscal policies of the government.
In terms of the cycles, a very important longer-term cycle has already peaked this year, namely the 6-year cycle. The price peak for this particular cycle was in May while the time peak occurred earlier this month. This was the last of the significant longer-term cycles that was in its rising phase before the 60-year Grand Super Cycle bottoms in 2014 along with its double, the 120-year cycle. Some cycle watchers assume this mean that it's all downhill for the financial market and the economy between now and 2014, but this isn't likely to be true. As with any cyclical progression, there are short-term weekly and quarterly cycles at play which, when combined with extremes in investor sentiment, create potentially sharp reactions against the long-term downward trend.
Another point worth considering is how the previous 120-year cycle bottom played out. In 1892 – just a couple of years before the 120-year cycle was to bottom in 1894 – the stock market as measured by the Axe-Houghton Industrial Stock Index actually advanced through the end of 1892 before collapsing in 1893-94 under the weight of the dominant long-term cycle (circled in chart below). Some observers have wondered if perhaps this pattern could be repeated in 2012.
To answer this question we need to consider that only one yearly cycle is still in its peaking phase currently and that's the 4-year cycle. The 4-year cycle is the least significant of the yearly cycles but when there is a sufficient level of political will on the part of regulators, a temporary abeyance of the stock market downtrend while the 4-year cycle peaks next year could theoretically occur. This would probably require a coordinated global stimulus effort on the part of the world's leading central banks, i.e. a global QE3 type effort. Considering that next year is a presidential election year in the U.S. and the stakes are also quite high in the euro zone for a rescue of certain member countries, such an effort can't be ruled out going into 2012.
Although a coordinated global stimulus policy while the 4-year cycle is in its peak phase next year could buy both the stock market and the economy some time, it likely wouldn't put a significant dent in the unemployment rate. Even a major stimulus on a global level will be battling the fierce headwinds of the 120-year down cycle, and it's unlikely that monetary regulators have the will or the understanding to increase money supply to the degree that would be required to make serious inroads against deflation.
For now the U.S. retail economy is still being propelled from the momentum created by the recently peaked 6-year cycle, not to mention the fairly abundant liquidity provided by the Fed in the last several months. It would be a mistake to assume that this liquidity is a sufficient barrier against, say, another outbreak of the European debt crisis because liquidity has a tendency to vanish when it's needed most. But as long as there are no crisis situations on the immediate horizon, the current environment should be enough to allow the retail economy to dodge another bullet this holiday season.
Disclosure: I have no positions in any stocks mentioned, and no plans to initiate any positions within the next 72 hours.

Polar bears are some of the mammals adapted to live in the Arctic. By Adapted, I mean, can live in cold areas. Everyone or almost everyone (for inclusivity purposes) knows polar bears have a coat of insulated fur that does not absorb water. This bear will dive into the cold water to get that fish for dinner and shake off the water.
To keep warm, under the skin, the bear has a thick layer of fat. The beauty of adaptation is nothing seems like an accident or coincidence. Everything is by design. Polar bears have this thick fur on the bottom of their feet that helps in movement on ice. On top of all these, the polar bear has black skin to help absorb warmth when the sun shines.
Away from the polar bear living freely in the Arctic to more useful information. There are versions of polar bears in our houses. You probably guessed it right, the polar bear fur rug. It is an expensive investment but totally worth it. The bear design and the warmth it provides are some of the benefits, but how exactly do you clean it yourself without making it look dull and worn out?
I would recommend the use of professional cleaning services. Fayetteville Carpet Cleaner is a company dedicated to handling all your rug and carpet cleaning needs. Check them out on www.carpetcleanerfayettevillar.com. If you decide to do it yourself here is a simple procedure on how to go about it.
1. Step 1
Always begin by removing the loose dirt. Pick the big pieces such as Lego blocks physically. To reach the dirt trapped in the polar bear fur fibers, you will need to vacuum. Hold up the rug some of the dirt will fall off. Then use a handheld vacuum cleaner and clean it till there is no more dust. You could also beat the rug in between the vacuuming it fastens the process.
2. Step 2
To clean the rug, you need to use a very soft brush. It is polar bear fur, and it does not withstand vigorous rubbing during cleaning. Clean with an appropriate cleaning detergent. Bleach is safe when it comes to removing any tough stains, but watch out for overly harsh bleach. It will weaken the fibers. Brush gently from one end to the other as you observe the grain.
3. Step 3
Remember polar bear fur is not used to overly hot climates and temperatures. You will need to dry it in a cool environment with a preferably wind place. If you can only hang it indoors, place it under a fan or a clothespin. It will seem like a lot of work. It is if you do not have time. You will need to keep brushing the fur as the rug dries to avoid situations where the hair becomes frizzy or clumps together due to the dripping water. Vacuum the carpet after it drains to remove any dust that may have attached during the outside drying process.
The polar bear rug is an excellent accessory to your house and an expensive one. You should prioritize its general care. Always use a protective spray and brush the fur frequently to keep it soft. Do not forget to call on Fayetteville Carpet Cleaner to help you out when you need carpet cleaning services.

Sometimes when we feature a Look for Less, the less expensive bag was clearly designed in the image of the more expensive bag. That's one of the duties of mid-priced brands, after all; taking a look that's out of reach for most consumers, reinterpreting it in the brand's aesthetic and making it more accessible.
A have a confession: I am a Karminite. I stumbled upon Karmin Covers a couple years ago on YouTube and immediately became hooked. The YouTube sensation then became a mainstream sensation, and they are blowing it out of the water, song after song, collaboration after collaboration. You may have seen the duo, Amy and Nick, on your TV screen during the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade and you may have noticed they were decked out in Coach items.
We already gave you a behind-the-scenes look (plus a giveaway, make sure you enter!) at the making of Karmin's video for Coach, and now we have the pleasure of debuting it for you. With the end of November, there is no better way to get into the spirit of the holidays than with an upbeat and catchy rendition of the ever-popular Sleigh Ride. Karmin covers it like no one can, with Amy rapping and Nick playing the trumpet, this is a tune you will be jamming to all weekend. Like their looks? Shop the Rachel Zoe styled Karmin Coach Holiday shop on Coach.com.
I'm not sure if you realized, but up until a couple seasons ago, Coach didn't make clutches. They had every other bag to fill any collection, including tons of wristlets, but they didn't make clutches. I remember going to their Fall 2012 preview way back in February, and the company was buzzing about the introduction of clutches, an integral design to any brand's book.
No, you haven't traveled in some kind of time warp back to Monday. (How cruel would that be?) Yes, these are man bags. Just like men's oversized watches, oxfords and loafers have become a trendy (not to mention totally chic) option for women in recent years, a men's bag can also add a fresh, slightly unexpected element to an ensemble.
Louis Vuitton may have pioneered the idea, but now handbags designers collaborating with high-profile artists is all the rage. Everyone from Dior to Coach has given it a shot, and in the case of Coach, it seems as though the company has judged such collaborations to be a roaring success. Fresh off of a much-loved menswear teamup with Hugo Guinness, the American handbag company has tapped New York artist James Nares to lend his prints to a collection of totes that will debut a week from today.
Coach x James Nares will feature the artist's signature waves, which he paints on huge canvasses while hanging from a harness above them. Coach has translated those pieces into a set of six tote bags, each of which will be made in limited editions of 175. The leather-trimmed canvas totes will retail for $798 when they hit Coach stores and Coach.com on April 20. Check with your local store to see if they'll be receiving pieces from the collection, or better yet, sign up for notification of the bags' arrival at Coach.com. More images of the collection after the jump. (more…)

It's International Women's Day and what better way to celebrate than to take a bite of a sweet, red chili pepper. You may not know it, but these can be a critical ingredient of women's empowerment. Well, they're actually a critical ingredient for picante de pollo, a popular chicken dish in Bolivia. But stay with me and I promise this will become clear shortly.
The Humanitarian Coalition, which I believe to be inspired by a similar British organization, is a group of seasoned NGO organizations who think that by working together on issues, they can get more done. But it's what they offer to confused Canadian donors that might well prove their most pivotal contribution.

Lamb Chops with a Balsamic-Vinegar Pan Sauce
Serve with Rösti Potatoes and a mixed green salad.
Makes: 4 servings
Active Time:
Total Time:
Nutrition Profile
Diabetes appropriate | Low calorie | Low carbohydrate | Low saturated fat | Low sodium | Heart healthy | Healthy weight | Gluten free |View Our Nutrition Guidelines »
- 4 6-ounce lamb loin chops, or eight 4-ounce rib chops, trimmed
- 2 cloves garlic, peeled and halved
- 1 teaspoon finely chopped fresh rosemary
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- Freshly ground pepper to taste
- 2 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil, divided
- 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
- 1/2 cup reduced-sodium chicken broth
- 1 sprig fresh rosemary
- 1 bay leaf
- Rub lamb well with cut sides of 1 garlic clove; discard garlic. Sprinkle with chopped rosemary, salt and pepper; rub in 1 teaspoon oil. Cover and let marinate in refrigerator for at least 1 hour and up to 24 hours.
- Heat the remaining 1 teaspoon oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the second garlic clove and lamb chops. (If using rib chops, it may be necessary to sear them in batches. Do not wipe the pan clean between batches.) Sear the lamb on one side until golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes. Turn and sear on the other side for 1 minute; reduce the heat to low and continue cooking until the second side is golden brown and the center is still slightly pink. Transfer the lamb to a platter and keep warm.
- Spoon away any excess fat, leaving the browned bits in the bottom, and return the pan (with garlic halves) to high heat. Add vinegar and bring to a boil, scraping the pan for browned bits. Stir in broth, rosemary sprig and bay leaf; boil until the sauce has thickened and reduced by half, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove the garlic, rosemary sprig and bay leaf, then season the sauce with salt and pepper. Spoon over the lamb and serve immediately.

Online Labor Demand Decreased 226,700 in June
06 Jul. 2016
- The June loss follows a larger drop in May of 285,800
- The May and June losses have been widespread across online job boards
- Both the Professional and the Services/Production occupations have been hard hit
Online advertised vacancies decreased 226,700 to 4,657,500 in June, according to The Conference Board Help Wanted OnLine® (HWOL) Data Series,released today. The May Supply/Demand rate stands at 1.52 unemployed for each advertised vacancy with a total of 2.6 million more unemployed workers than the number of advertised vacancies. The number of unemployed was around 7.4 million in May.
"The losses in the first quarter of 2016 have been followed with even larger losses in the second quarter," said Gad Levanon, Chief Economist, North America, at The Conference Board. "The 2016 slowdown in demand has been widespread, affecting virtually all States and MSAs."
In June, the Professional category saw losses in all major occupational categories with the largest losses in Management (−24.1), Business/Finance (−21.3), and Computer/Math (−34.8). The Services/Production category saw large losses in Sales (−26.3), Office/Admin (−33.1), and Installation/Repair (−13.4); other categories showed only small gains and losses.
- Among the largest States, 1 rose and 19 posted losses
- Among the 50 States, 2 rose, 48 States declined

Michigan decreased 6,000 to 144,600 and Minnesota fell 4,300 to 128,600. Missouri decreased 3,000 to 85,400. Among the smaller States in the region, Indiana decreased 5,600 to 76,700, and Kansas decreased 1,500 to 39,100. Iowa declined 3,200 to 58,100, Nebraska fell 700 to 33,700, and North Dakota decreased 400 to 15,400 (Table 3).
The Northeast declined 42,700 in June. Pennsylvania decreased 14,500 to 188,100, the largest change in the region. New York fell 12,200 to 266,100 and Massachusetts decreased 9,900 to 139,100.

Supply/Demand Rates: Help Wanted OnLine calculates Supply/Demand rates for the 50 States (Table 4). The data are for May 2016, the latest month for which State unemployment figures are available. There were 7 States in which the number of advertised vacancies exceeded the number of unemployed: South Dakota (0.63), Colorado (0.82), New Hampshire (0.85), North Dakota (0.85), Minnesota (0.86), Nebraska (0.89), and Utah (0.96). The States with the highest Supply/Demand rates were Louisiana (3.06), Alabama (2.83), Mississippi (2.75), and West Virginia (2.59), which had more than two unemployed workers for every job opening.
Please note that the Supply/Demand rate only provides a measure of relative tightness of the individual State labor markets and does not suggest that the occupations of the unemployed directly align with the occupations of the advertised vacancies.
- In June, 1 rose, 2 were constant, and 49 metro areas declined (Table 5)
Metro Area Changes
In June, labor demand rose in 1 of the 52 largest metro areas, remained constant in 2, and fell in 49.
The MSAs with the largest changes in each of the regions were: Chicago (−9,300) and Minneapolis-St. Paul (−3,800) in the Midwest; Los Angeles (−15,800) and San Francisco (12,300) in the West; Dallas (-7,100) and Washington DC (-5,000) in the South; and New York (−13,900) and Boston (−7,800) in the Northeast (See Table B and Table 5).
The West decreased 64,300 in June. Los Angeles decreased 15,800 to 160,300. San Francisco fell 12,300 to 109,400. Seattle-Tacoma increased 1,100 to 101,900 and Phoenix decreased 5,200 to 66,400. Denver fell 1,900 to 68,000. San Jose decreased 3,700to 52,300. San Diego decreased 2,800 to 47,300. Portland decreased 2,100 to 46,400. Sacramento decreased 2,500 to 28,400 and Salt Lake City decreased 1,700 to 32,600. Honolulu decreased 400 to 13,500.
The South decreased 68,700. Dallas decreased 7,100 to 107,000 and Washington, DC decreased 5,000 to 148,100. Atlanta decreased 4,500 to 98,900 and Baltimore decreased 3,500 to 50,000. Houston decreased 3,200 to 64,900 and Miami fell 3,900 to 68,300. San Antonio fell 2,100 to 29,100. Tampa decreased 2,500 to 45,200 and Charlotte decreased 2,300 to 35,000. Birmingham decreased 300 to 13,300. New Orleans remained constant at 15,900. Louisville decreased 1,900 to 18,300 and Nashville decreased 1,900 to 31,000.
The Northeast declined 42,700 in June. New York declined 13,900 to 259,000. Boston decreased 7,800 to 107,600 and Philadelphia fell 7,700 to 92,400. Pittsburgh dropped 3,000 to 37,300. Hartford fell 1,300 to 22,500. Buffalo decreased 500 to 16,600 and Providence fell 900 to 20,000. Rochester remained constant at 13,700.
The Midwest experienced a decrease of 53,300. Chicago decreased 9,300 to 136,700. Minneapolis-St. Paul decreased 3,800 to 89,100. Detroit declined 2,700 to 68,100. St. Louis decreased 2,000 to 42,600 and Milwaukee decreased 2,400 to 28,000. Columbus fell 2,400 to 35,300 and Cincinnati decreased 2,800 to 35,600. Cleveland declined 1,900 to 30,400. Kansas City decreased 1,300 to 38,000 and Indianapolis lost 2,000 to 29,100.
The number of postings does not, however, tell the entire story. A crucial factor is how many unemployed people are seeking jobs and how much competition there is for the jobs that are available. The Conference Board HWOL's Supply/Demand rate relates the number of unemployed workers to the number of advertised vacancies. Based on May data (the latest available unemployment data for metro areas), 10 major metro areas saw more job openings than unemployed workers: Salt Lake City (S/D rate of 0.68), San Jose (0.71), Minneapolis-St. Paul (0.72), San Francisco (0.77), Denver (0.77), Washington, DC (0.79), Boston (0.84), Austin (0.88), and Nashville (0.93) (Table 6). Other favorable markets for job-seekers included Seattle-Tacoma (1.0), Honolulu (1.03) Columbus (1.15), and Portland (1.16).
In contrast, unemployed workers face great competition for each advertised position in Riverside (over 3 unemployed for every opening) as well as Houston (over 2 unemployed for every opening). In 45 of the 52 metro areas, however, there are now fewer than 2 unemployed per advertised opening. (See Table 6 for complete metro area Supply/Demand rates.)
- In June, one of the largest ten online job categories posted increases (Table C)
Occupational Changes for the Month of June
In June, one of the largest ten online job categories posted increases.
Computer and mathematical science ads decreased 34,800 to 512,900. The supply/demand rate lies at 0.18, i.e. over 5 advertised openings per unemployed job-seeker (see Table C and Table 7). Management ads decreased 24,100 to 405,700. The supply/demand rate for these occupations lies at 0.91, i.e. about 1 advertised opening per unemployed job-seeker.
Business and finance ads decreased 21,300 to 270,800. The supply/demand rate lies at 0.57, i.e. over 1 advertised opening per unemployed job-seeker. Sales and related ads decreased 26,300 to 483,500. Their supply/demand rate is 1.63, i.e. over 1 unemployed per opening.
Office and administrative support ads declined 33,100 to 488,300. The supply/demand rate lies at 1.36, i.e. over 1 unemployed job-seeker for every advertised available opening. Installation ads declined 13,400 to 173,300. The supply/demand rate lies at 1.06, i.e. over 1 unemployed job-seeker for every advertised available opening.
Food Preparation and serving related ads increased 3,300 to 248,000. The supply/demand rate for these occupations lies at 2.48, more than 2 unemployed job-seekers for every advertised available opening.

The proprietor and staff make you feel like you're visiting their home and are very attentive. Great coffee ceremony every afternoon with excellent coffee served with the whole staff. Does not have a dry, functional hotel atmosphere you would get at Addis' larger, typical hotels. The rooms are suites with a separate living room, which is very nice. The building is a solid European-styled structure. Next door to the Greek club for additional dining options and tennis. Located near the city center, but away from the traffic so that it is quiet. Wifi to the rooms was in the process of being fixed while we were there, but otherwise a great option for an easygoing, comfortable lodging option in Addis.

What does that actually DO? I'm using the Sitewide Tags Pages plugin to create a site-wide search blog, which is working wonderfully, but I've run into a hitch. I also use Buddypress, and because people's blog posts are being published not only on their site but also on the search blog, the item is showing up twice in the Buddypress activity stream.
I tried marking the seach blog as mature, hoping that would stop the stuff it does from being put through the BP activity stream, but that didn't work b(still got double posts in the stream). I've got it set to "spam" now, but that doesn't seem to be doing much either. I definitely want posts to be shown in the activity stream, but only ONCE!

Hello! First off, EXCELLENT plugin. Ran into an issue, though, when using on a server that runs ssl for the admin section of the site.
I have Yop-Polls running perfectly on our dev site, but the production site throws the ambiguous "An error has occurred" message on submission (loads fine before-hand). The wp-admin side of the prod server is running over https and after further investigation, sends the following js error:
GET http://mysite.com/wp-admin/admin-ajax.php?action=yop_poll_load_js&id=2&location=widget&unique_id=_yp5320cf4952530&ver=4.9.1 403 (Forbidden)
I assume there is a function or code bit I can change to let the plugin know that "http" should be "https"?
Any help is greatly appreciated.
