Views from connections ahead of the Sky Bet Dovecote Novices' Hurdle at Kempton on Saturday.
- Related Content
Trainer Paul Nicholls hopes the decision to skip going for a huge pot at Newbury with Irving pays dividends in the Sky Bet Dovecote Novices' Hurdle at Kempton on Saturday.
One of the ante-post favourites for the Supreme Novices' Hurdle next month, Irving looked a blot on the handicap for the Betfair Hurdle but the former champion trainer decided not to risk him on heavy ground.
That race was eventually won by Splash Of Ginge, behind Irving at Ascot in December, and Nicholls feels the smaller field in the Dovecote will be better preparation for his main aim at Cheltenham in just over three weeks.
The Ditcheat handler said: "He's been off for a while but he's been ready to run.
"I just thought there's one or two to beat on form at Kempton, not like at Newbury in the Betfair Hurdle when there's about 20 to beat."
Irving is owned by the Axom syndicate, whose racing manager, Dan Downie, said: "It's all really exciting.
"We were desperate to get another run into him somewhere if we could and in an ideal world we could have done with this race being last Saturday to have given us an extra week before Cheltenham.
"It looks a good opportunity, though, and, like Paul says, even if he gets beaten he won't have as hard a race as he would have done at Newbury in that ground.
"Ideally we'd want better ground but if we wanted to run, this is about as good as we're going to get. It's certainly not bad enough to stop us running."
Irving, who is unbeaten in three starts over hurdles, was a decent performer on the level in Germany - but not as good as Alan King's First Mohican.
Placed in Group company in France, when trained by the late Sir Henry Cecil, he made a smooth transition to hurdles when winning a decent novice event at Doncaster.
This race has been the plan ever since and he needs to perform with credit to book his Cheltenham ticket.
"First Mohican, who runs in the Dovecote, won really well at Doncaster first time out and had a good blow afterwards, so, hopefully, there is improvement to come," the Barbury Castle handler told www.alankingracing.co.uk.
"He has worked well since and schooled on Thursday, and if all goes well it will be the Supreme next."
The Nick Williams-trained Amore Alato beat some well-touted individuals in a traditionally hot novice hurdle at Kempton on Boxing Day but he could only finish third in handicap company next time out at Cheltenham.
However, Williams believes the ground may have been to blame that day.
He told At The Races: "He was very impressive at Kempton over Christmas so he's a course and distance winner and has a lot going for him, I would have thought.
"The heavy ground probably didn't suit him at Cheltenham if he's run to his mark of 135.
"He still ran a solid race but he didn't show that he was particularly well handicapped."
Charlie Longsdon's Germany Calling is the unknown quantity and has had a slight setback since his hurdling debut, when second at Cheltenham in October.
"He was a very good second at Cheltenham, but has been off since then with a slight muscle injury," the Oxfordshire trainer told www.charlielongsdonracing.com.
"This is a very tough race to bring him back for, but he is a nice novice and if he does not win I could easily see him running in all the big novices next season."
John Ferguson's Dubai Prince, one-time ante-post favourite for the Derby, was ultra-impressive winning on his hurdling debut but did not look the same horse when pulled up behind Amore Alato at Kempton and when beaten by Pearl Castle at Doncaster.
The seven-strong field is completed by JP McManus-owned duo, Cup Final and Vaihau, trained by Nicky Henderson and Jonjo O'Neill respectively.

Hangzhou Joins Growing List of China Cities With Limits on CarsBloomberg News
Hangzhou, the Chinese city famous for its West Lake and tea plantations, will cut the number of new vehicle license plates issued a year by more than 70 percent to combat worsening air pollution and congestion.
The capital of eastern Zhejiang province will cap the number of new license plates at 80,000 a year, compared with the record 276,000 new vehicles added in the 12 months ended February, according to a statement by the municipal government posted on its website.
Hangzhou joins Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, Guiyang and Tianjin in imposing quotas on new vehicles, as local governments step up efforts to support Premier Li Keqiang's declaration of war on smog. China's main car association has forecast that vehicle sales growth will slow this year as anti-pollution and austerity campaigns spread.
"Two years ago, when Beijing started, people were expecting more of this to happen," said Yale Zhang, Shanghai-based managing director of researcher Autoforesight Shanghai Co. "This will be a driver to accelerate people's purchases of cars in other cities."
Like many major cities in China, air quality has deteriorated in Hangzhou as the number of vehicles increased. Traffic has also slowed to under 20 kilometers (12 miles) per hour during morning and evening peak periods, according to the city government.
License Plates
Hangzhou will distribute 80 percent of the license plates by lottery and the rest through auction, and details of the system will be released by the end of April, according to the statement.
Premier Li said earlier this month that fighting air pollution is one of the government's top priorities. A report by the World Health Organization released this week found air pollution caused more deaths worldwide than AIDS, diabetes and road injuries combined. WHO Director-General Margaret Chan called China's situation a regional health issue that harms the nation's economy.
China, which in 2013 became the first country to see domestic motor-vehicle sales surpass 20 million units a year, will see deliveries rise as much as 10 percent in 2014 after last year's 14 percent growth, the state-backed China Association of Automobile Manufacturers said in January.

Redditor SirTechnocracy didn't get down on one knee to propose to his girlfriend. He didn't even get off the couch.
All the Stanford MBA candidate needed was Good Guy Greg, Success Kid, and the Most Interesting Man in the World. Oh, and the help of 18 deviantART artists to orchestrate the perfect proposal.
At about 10:30 am SirTechnocracy posted the following album on r/AdviceAnimals, Reddit's meme forum, with the title "This is a marriage proposal (she will recognize my username): I can't believe the day is finally here."
"It would be far more romantic to her than just taking her to a restaurant," SirTechnocracy wrote in response to someone criticizing his post. "Especially with all the pictures I commissioned for this (getting all those together took months and a couple thousand dollars)."
The following album features 21 art pieces that reflect special moments in the 18-months relationship of SirTechnocracy and his girlfriend. It has been viewed more than 31,000 times.
SirTechnocracy's hunch was right. An hour after the post went up, his girlfriend saw the proposal and accepted.
"She just ran up and hugged me almost in tears for like a minute (which seemed like forever)," SirTechnocracy added.
After accepting SirTechnocracy's proposal in real life, she hopped on Reddit to accept it with the following meme.
SirTechnocracy's girlfriend, who goes by ladytechnocracy, also came to her boyfriends defense regarding the manner of the proposal.
"I understand that the concept of a Reddit proposal is... unconventional (hell, I'd never think of it), but this is honestly the most romantic thing someone has ever done for me," his girlfriend, ladytechnocracy, wrote. "The adviceanimals crack me up, and the commissions are amazing. Also, to clarify, SirTechnocracy is a serious Redditor, but by no means a basement-dwelling neckbeard (I think it's an unfair stereotype applied to a lot of us on the site)."
In December 2011 another lovesick netizen proposed to his girlfriend using memes. Only he printed them out on cards and surprised her while she was out to dinner with friends.
SirTechnocracy and ladytechnocracy have yet to set a date. When they do, Reddit will likely be the first to know.
"In truth this proposal was just to make her happy; she was with me when we commissioned the ring," SirTechnocracy said. "She wanted my actual proposal to her to be a surprise, something we would remember forever and that showed real commitment and understanding."

At dawn on Sunday "a light naval division" of the Kingdom of Patagonia (a yacht containing an undisclosed number of French adventurers and romantics) landed on the Minquiers islands south of Jersey.
The invaders hauled down the Union flag and replaced it with the blue, white and green standard of the spoof (but not entirely spoof) Kingdom of Patagonia, re-establishing a claim first made in 1984.
The capture was revealed in a faxed communique to Reuters news agency in Paris yesterday. The statementclaimed the uninhabited rocks - officially British since 1953 - on behalf of the "government of His Majesty Orelie- Antoine I, King of Patagonia".
King Orelie-Antoine was a French explorer and idealist who was proclaimed king of Patagonia, at the tip of South America, by the native population for a few weeks in 1860, until the Chileans saw him off. He has been dead for 130 years.
The instigator of the weekend's action is the self- proclaimed consul general of the Kingdom of Patagonia, who claims about a thousand adherents. His name is Jean Raspail. He is a 73-year-old French royalist, travel-writer, philosopher and practical joker.
Mr Raspail is, in almost all respects, a serious person. He is a chevalier of the Legion d'honneur, the highest French civilian honour. He has a four- inch entry in the French edition of Who's Who.
Speaking on the phone yesterday from his home in Neuilly-sur-Seine, west of Paris, he said: "This is a game but it is a game played seriously in the way that children's games are played seriously. We will present the British flag we took from the islands to the British ambassador in Paris in due course."
By claiming the Minquiers rocks, half way between Jersey and the Breton coast, Mr Raspail and his followers wish to make two points. They wish to challenge the "unacceptable and prolonged" British occupation of the Falkland Islands (properly part of Patagonia, they claim).
And they wish to keep alive the French claim to the sovereignty, and rich fisheries, of the Minquiers archipelago, a source of contention between the two countries for 200 years, until awarded to Britain by the international court at The Hague in 1953.
The last landing made by the "Patagonians" on the rocks in June 1984 - when Mr Raspail commanded the fleet personally - caused a brief stir in Britain.
The Government and the press took the incursion seriously (the 1982 Falklands war being then fresh in the public memory). The latest invasion comes at the time of a fisheries dispute with French trawlermen in Channel Islands waters.
"Our action is symbolic but the cause is real and just," Mr Raspail said. "The French government has cravenly dropped its claim to these rocks, which are properly French."
But why claim the islands in the name of a fictional kingdom? "King Orelie- Antoine was a dreamer. A little crazy, probably. We wish to keep alive the dream."
The invaders left another claim to sovereignty, besides their flag. The main island, the only part of the Minquiers group to remain above water at high tide, boasts three or four buildings, including a toilet, for the convenience of visiting yachtsmen. It carries a sign saying: "This building is the southernmost building in the United Kingdom".
On Sunday, the French/ Patagonian claimants placed another sign above the first, reading in French: "This building is the northernmost building in the Kingdom of Patagonia".Reuse content

|Looking for suggestion for creating nodetypes
|Mon, 16 Apr 2007 01:04:53 GMT
We have a situation where we need to store a list of UUIDs in a particular format and sequential. For example we have folders A->B->C where C is child of B and B is child of A. In this case the structure needs to be stored in a property of a node as "Auuid/Buuid/Cuuid". What is the best way to declare this node path? One of the options is to store it as a string, but when folders are moved, then the string would need to be updated. If we have lots of such strings, there is a problem. Can you plese suggest a better way to revalidate the above method? Thanks.

8 U.S. Cities Making Their Own Foreign Delicacies
Once upon a time in America, traveling food lovers had to smuggle foreign pleasures home - stuffing some jamon Iberico from Spain in the suitcase, for example, or stashing a little French raw milk cheese in a pocket - while risking serious fines in the process. There is still a long list of restrictions on the importing of foreign foods, but today, there's actually less need to acquire them abroad. Sturgeon overfished in Russia? Go to California, where the caviar is sustainable. And why pay a premium on prosciutto di Parma when the "Americano" version from Iowa is just as good? Laws, restrictions, ecology and economy have all spurred industrious Americans to DIY their own "foreign delicacies" right in the good old USA. Here's where to get once-considered-exotic imports made at home.

By this time the story has strayed so far from the source, it can hardly be called the same thing. Though it does, albiet very, very vaguely, finally suggest some changes to Tskune near the end and that he can face some things on his own, it is very much too little too late and a very weak and poor attempt at that. It is so, vague and weakly done it is hard to really know what the heck is going on... read more

I'm not actively defending the feature (I remember it, and I think I understand its goals).
I do not think it is necessary to walk into the mists of time in order to remove features that are clearly not an important part of the web platform nor of our extension platform. We will be removing idispatch scripting altogether as soon as WinMo doesn't depend on it for the activex bridge.
The only issue that I know of around this outside of the obvious direct use is for browser sniffing. Supposedly some sites were using the presence to determine the browser. Obviously not the proper way to do it, but there were sites doing it. Hopefully they're gone now :-)

THE BRIT VIEW - RVing in the USA
This site had a minor update in June 2014 and an important one May 2016. (originally compiled December 2006)
We're Keith and Marie and our home is in England(UK/GB).
It's May 22 2016 and I'm now just 69, Marie is mid 66. We began our trip in July 2004. Our RVing days have finished and now we spend winter months in a resort in Arizona. It was a great 8 years travelling the USA but we bought a resort park model in spring 2013 and now enjoy staying a couple of months longer from late fall to early spring. We do miss the wonderful scenery we saw across the US but we were RVing way longer than we ever anticipated and we're thankful we did what we did. Park life and activities are suiting us with occasional sightseeing and hiking trips in our beloved Arizona.
This account is now decidely long-in-the-tooth and some information is dated. Please check carefully into the current situation. (February 2013 update) As far as we can tell much information here remains relevant although prices shown will have changed. APOLOGIES FOR ANY MIXED VERB TENSES AFTER EDITING THE ORIGINAL TEXT.
We owned a 1 Ton, long-box Chevvy Silverado dually with a Duramax turbo-diesel engine / 5 speed Allison auto-transmission power train. This was used to tow our former home, a nominally 36 foot (11.5 metre internally) fifth wheel trailer with three slides. The trailer was rated at 14,000 lbs (6300Kg) gross vehicle weight. (On the road it weighed approximately 13,000lbs). Both were bought in Houston, Texas.
After selling the trailer to friends on our park in 2013 they sold it on in 2016 to another two of our friends who were already in a space across the street from us in their motorhome. So, completely unpredictably, 'our' fifth wheel trailer is now sited across the street from our own park model home! The once burned and baked decals have been professionally repainted, the body cleaned and polished, but in all other respects it still looks just the same as it did when we were its proud owners.
Some of the issues we faced before and during our trip are listed on the menu. Although we are Brits, many aspects may be similar for other non-US travelers. They are listed in no particular order of importance.
Much you read here we have experienced personally. Original information has been updated wherever possible but it is important to check the current situation and how details apply to yourself.
A section about Canada (not our personal experience) was added November 2010 for comparison with the US processes. Additional tyre and storage comments added December 2010, winter 2012 and February 2013.
Security and immigration issues remain a major concern for government in the USA. Changes or updates are likely in the future.
New regulations were introduced January 2009 for Visa Waiver Travellers (see 'Entering the USA')
Would-be travellers should check carefully that information on these pages is still current and relevant.

Posted on 04/18/2005 6:37:40 AM PDT by A. Pole
These are not the halcyon days of the Republicans' champion of open borders and free trade, Jack Kemp.
The "Minutemen," who appeared in Cochise County, Ariz., April 1 to highlight the invasion President Bush will not halt, are being hailed by conservative media and congressmen as patriots, as they are dismissed by the president as "irrational vigilantes."
Comes now the trade shocker for February. The deficit hit an all-time monthly record: $61 billion. The annual U.S. trade deficit is now running at $717 billion, $100 billion above the 2004 record.
Smelling political capital, Hillary Clinton and Chuck Schumer are co-sponsoring a 27 percent tariff on goods from China. Beijing ran a $162 billion trade surplus with us in 2004 in what trade expert Charles McMillion calls "The World's Most Unequal Trading Relationship."
The waters are rising around the Kemp Republicans. For these gargantuan deficits are sinking the dollar, denuding us of industry and increasing our dependence on imports for the components of our weapons, the necessities of our national life and the $2 billion in borrowed money we need daily now to continue consuming beyond our capacity to pay.
Brother Kemp is correct in his Washington Times column in saying Beijing has not been manipulating its currency. China fixed the value of the renminbi at eight to the dollar in 1994, just as we once tied the dollar to gold. Beijing rightly objects, "It is not our fault your dollar is sinking."
But here, the free-traders enter a cul de sac. They recoil at tariffs like Lucifer from holy water, but have no idea how to stop the hemorrhaging of jobs, technology, factories and dollars, except exhortation and prayer. For as 19th-century liberals, they believe free trade is "God's Diplomacy." Whoever rejects it sins in the heart. True believers all, they will ride this raft right over the falls and take us with them. This unyielding belief in the salvific power of free trade is, like socialism, one of modernity's secular religions.
As Kemp's column testifies, these folks are as light on history as they are long on ideology. Kemp claims "there is no demonstrable instance in economic history where nations were made worse off by free and open trade. There are only the doomsday scenarios spun out of the imagination of half-baked economists ..."
But between 1860 and 1914, Great Britain, which began the era with an economy twice the size of ours, ended it with an economy not half the size of ours. Britain worshipped at the altar of free trade, while America practiced protectionism from Lincoln to McKinley to Teddy Roosevelt to Taft. Tariffs averaged 40 percent and U.S. growth 4 percent a year for 50 years.
Bismarckian Germany did not exist in 1860. But by 1914, by imitating protectionist America, she had an economy larger than Great Britain's. Were it not for protectionist America shipping free-trade Britain the necessities of national survival from 1914 to 1917, Britain would have lost the war to Germany, so great was her dependence on imports. A real-life "doomsday scenario," thanks to a few dozen German U-boats.
Jack Kemp notwithstanding, protectionism has been behind the rise of every great power in modern history: Great Britain under the Acts of Navigation up to 1850, the America of 1860 to 1914, Germany from 1870 to 1914, Japan from 1950 to 1990 and China, which has grown at 9 percent a year for a decade. As China demonstrates, it is a mistake to assume free trade, or even democracy, is indispensable to growth.
Kemp trots out Smoot-Hawley, the 1930 tariff law, for a ritual scourging, suggesting it caused the Depression. But this, too, is hoary myth. In the 1940s and 1950s, schoolchildren and college students were indoctrinated in such nonsense by FDR-worshipping teachers whose life's vocation was to discredit the tariff hikes and tax cuts of Harding and Coolidge that led to the most spectacular growth in U.S. history 7 percent a year in the Roaring Twenties. Under high-tariff Harding-Coolidge, the feds' tax take shrank to 3 percent of GNP.
As high tariffs and low or no income taxes made the GOP America's Party from 1860 to 1932, the Wilsonianism of Bush I and Bush II open borders, free trade, wars for global democracy has destroyed the Nixon-Reagan New Majority that used to give the GOP 49-state landslides. Bush carried 31 states in his re-election bid. He would have lost had Democrats capitalized on the free-trade folly that put in play, until the final hours, the indispensable Republican state of Ohio.
Kemp calls China our trade partner surely a polite way to describe a regime that persecutes Catholics, brutalizes dissidents, targets 600 rockets on Taiwan, lets North Korea use its bases to ship missile and nuclear technology to anti-American regimes, and refuses to denounce racist riots designed to intimidate our Japanese allies.
As some on the Old Right have said since Bush I succeeded Reagan, open borders, free-trade globalism and wars for democracy are not conservatism, but its antithesis. And they will drown the GOP.
The Republicans jumping off the raft into the river and swimming desperately for shore testify to it more eloquently than words.
Come on, Racehorse, it isn't that difficult. Would Cuba benefit from trade with the US, or wouldn't it?
See # 87.
Since there is not much possibility of real free trade in today's world, there are going to be times when protectionism is appropriate. Probably not too many, but some. Also, in my very first reply to you, I noted the importance of national defense, I had meant to imply that there will probably always be at least a few industries that need to be kept local, thus protected.
Nevertheless, the concept of free trade is one with which I am comfortable, its opposite, Central Planning, with government deciding price and wage, and directing the econony, is one which I oppose on principle.
Incidentally, the herd animal tag line is a direct reference to the Democrat Pary's affinity with socialism and central planning. I am advocating the opposite, but if individual freedom and personal liberty were the characteristics of the herd, which they aren't, then I would count myself in.
Back later.
And a skillful refutation of the facts from you, right?
you are confusing me. I can't tell which side of the free trade debate you are on.
OK, you have Karl Marx on your side. I have Adam Smith. I am a little surprised to find Marxist freepers, though.
Great Britain had PLENTY of places to which she could export machinery, equipment, and manufactured goods--they were called Colonies (Rhodesia, India, etc...)
Don't tell us that GB had 'noplace' to sell its goodies.
I recently had reason to browse through my aging copy of Smith's Wealth of Nations. With respect to tariffs and other protectionist intervention by government, if you were to do the same, you would find you are quite wrong. Now, with respect to other trade matters, he might smile on you just a wee bit.
Perhaps you've never heard of the Greens?
It is the Greenies who have shut down US lumber production, aided by Clinton. GWB has not been much help at all--if any--in recovery of the lumber industry.
Whether or not you or Pat ever choose to recognize the fact, tariffs do not penalize foreign producers. They are a hidden tax on the consumers of items so taxed.
Good going guy. Free trade shills refer to thousands of pages of government-to-government deals as 'free trade'. Lots of input from lobbyists and foreign governments but our elected reps can't change a sentence.
It is that difficult.
With whom are you proposing we do business? What is the measure of benefit?
Can you refute the facts cited by Buchanan? Or, do you prefer to remain in the land of theory?
At 30 cents/hour, a $8500.00 car only takes, ah, lemmeeesee heah, 28,333 hours--about 10 years' work--to pay off (excluding interest.)
That also excludes housing, food, clothing---JUST the car.
What GM is actually predicting is that the US market for GM cars will be gone by 2020. Thus, the Chinese market HAS to be bigger.
Ummm, Buchanan cited facts. Where have you refuted them?
"You place your right to buy anything at the lowest price above the right of American workers to have the highest standard of living. You are with the herd on this one."
What is the difference between making large wages and paying high prices and lower wages with cheap prices? If the purchasing power is the same, then introducing protctionist tarrifs to ensure high wages does nothing but increase government control and unnecessary meddling.
Your $4K computer (1985) would have cost you about $1K in 1990--and it was STILL made in the USA.
Since 1995, cost reductions have to do with slave labor, not manufacturing efficiencies--all of which were achieved in the USA before that date.
It is getting confusing, isn't it? I'm on his side and we're about to take a wrong turn. :-)
I am not proposing doing business with Cuba. I was asking a simple question: Would Cuba benefit from trade with the US?
What is the measure of benefit?
What is the measure used to decide the benefit China has enjoyed?
Quite the eye-opener, huh?
Sorry that you're confused. I'm not. Just because I agree with Marx's characterization of the destructiveness of free trade?
It is not a simple question.
What is the measure used to decide the benefit China has enjoyed?
Not the same measure I would apply to who would benefit in Cuba.
Do you?
House Republicans who enjoy sporting Adam Smith ties should read a little more Adam Smith. In at least four cases, the father of free trade wrote, it must be "advantageous to lay some burden upon foreign (imports)," i.e., impose tariffs...
See the link in post 8
The British had colonies all over the world during those years.
Cuba would benefit from trade with the US.
no, I just totally misread your first post on the thread, where I thought you were criticizing Pat B. I got your meaning backwards.
As for Marx saying free trade will destroy nationalism, isn't that a good thing if the nationalism destroyed is Chinese (or Cuban) marxist nationalism?
We know that you are proficient in posting free trade html dogma,
Actually I rarely take a positon on free trade per-se, my issue is taxation and how best to release domestic business from the constraints that our current tax system imposes on manufacturing and all aspects of our commercial infra-structure.
Can you explain why globalist tax theory fails, but globalist trade theory holds?
Wrong question. The issue is more of one on how a retail sales tax only system operates to counter trade disadvantages. Productivity in this country far outways labor plus transport costs of goods in international trade and is not actually the dominant factor in manufacturing leaving our shores. Tax and regulatory conditions imposed on our manufacturing infr-structure account for alot more of the manufacturing fleeing our shores.
Under an NRST, that removes taxation and costs associated with business taxes from domestic manufacturers, our exports become more competitive. A retail only tax levied on all goods domestic as well as imports assures equalization of tax treatment of priducts while retaining the advantages of strong competition to keep corportations on the edge of the envelope in advancing technology and quality of goods at lowest cost to the consumer.
A tariff on imports merely provides an environment that encourages our own industry to slack off in competitive and techological advances in productivity while retarding the advantages of competition in expanding markets of international trade. A tariff does nothing to remove tax or rgulatory burdens on our domestic industry depressing the our domestic economy and industrial capability which is causing business to move their operations off shore.
With an NRST only tax system, we relieve domestic manufacturing from the heavy overhead costs imposed on them, while at the same time assuring that foreign imports are loaded with at least the same tax burden as our own domestic products.
As far as tariffs go, there is nothing at all to prevent us from imposing selective tariffs as well as NRST on imports in specific international trade situations where that would be of value. In the mean time why should we burden what manufacturing we have or treat those trade partners that are valuable to us any different at the retail level than we treat our domestic goods?
Furthermore why should we not create a manufacturing taxhaven to attract foreign manufactures to relocate there companies in the United States to encourage a reversal of the outflow of manufacturing from this country?
Marx wouldn't support free trade if it destroyed communist nationalism. Free trade destroys capitalist nationalism that's why Marx is in favor of it.
Cuba would benefit, but would Castro? Is it a coincidence that the longest serving leader in the Hemisphere (world?) is the one with the most economically isolated subjects?
Do you think Marx really anticipated an economy like China's today? Basically an autocratic capitalism. Would Marx or Lenin or Mao see today's China as truly Communist? To me it looks like 19th century mercantilism, and Marx would say it will crumble.
No, I don't believe it is a coincidence that isolationism has aided Castro in oppressing his people. Just as the emergence of capitalism in China has kept the Chicoms scrambing to squash dissent, trade with Cuba would allow the Cuban people a better standard of living which wouldn't necessarily be a good thing for Castro.
It's obvious you've never read Wealth of Nations. If you had, you would never have quoted the reference to Smith's four exceptions since they in no way support your position for protectionist tariffs. Nice bluff, however, FR is a tougher forum than what you're probably used to.
The Fair Tax is certainly one good proposal.That isn't enough, however. A UNIFORM revenue-raising tariff tax is an immediate, and effective additional step, however, that is fully-compliant with WTO rules and bylaws. (Granted, the rest of the Turd World will suddenly scream bloody murder...especially the Chinese...and who knows what the WTO would actually do...since it isn't about the rules, its about politics ).
The real problem, is that this imbalanced trade situation is looking more and more like a narcotic addiction...and the pain of withdrawal...recession/depression becomes ever more imminent even if we don't take any governmental steps to stop the hemmhorraging. We need to really address the political management issue here of the inevitable 'blow-back'...the pernicious and false perception that late-delivered cure is the CAUSE of the pain. The pseudo free traders will never relinquish their dogmatic creed. The economic reprecussions, being really severe...have to be taken into account...and a plan to deal with them implemented. I recommend slashing capital-gains taxes on U.S. investments, ...but leaving them on all our foreign investments. Give the WTO SOMETHING ELSE to bitch about.
And--to make the Cato crowd dance a jig...a regulatory "holiday" [ All OSHA, EPA, and other regulatory "enforcement" authority hereby suspended indefinitely until the crisis is declared over, and all existing activity "pardoned" pursuant a declaration of "economic crisis" .
Although, Lenin's statement has it backwards, the point is still the same - the capitalist allegiance is money. Actually, I wouldn't characterize the rope seller as capitalist. I would characterize him as communist. Just as the robber barons weren't really capitalists, but communists.The rope seller could be compared to former US companies whose loyalty is markets abroad, not their homeland. Loral comes to mind.
What will crumble in China is the Chicoms control if capitalism continues to flourish. As long as the Chicoms are supported by US consumers, they remain in control. If it weren't for trade with the US, China isn't capitalist enough to enjoy the growth it is now enjoying.
Bluff? I quoted him, which is more than you were capable of.
Yes, Karl Marx's communist beliefs make a reliable compass of what "not to do". He also liked the idea of mass 3rd world immigration into 1st world countries. He understood that for communism to take root in a country, chaos, instability, strife and conflict were necessary.
You nailed it. These guys are way too insulated to see or feel the effects of their policies.
"At 30 cents/hour,..."
Not an accurate depiction of the labor rate in China.
"$8500.00 car only takes, ah, lemmeeesee heah, 28,333 hours--about 10 years' work--to pay off (excluding interest.)"
Maybe for one person. But when cars first came to the US many creative methods were used in purchasing the cars, until wages caught up. It will not be any different in China.
"What GM is actually predicting is that the US market for GM cars will be gone by 2020."
Wrong again.
Rhetoric isn't generally convincing.
Long, long overdue to directly confront the EU over it's "Business Launch" subsidies of each and EVERY product in the AirBus inventory. A nice 35% retaliatory tariff to offset their subsidy they refuse to relinquish would be, at a minimum, a fair response.
"If tariffs protect the rights of the individual, then they do not reduce spending power, they protect it. If a tariff allows us to preserve our system of government, then how does it harm the quality of our life?"
What rights of the individual are being protected? Do we have a right to a certain wage or specific type of employement?
Your argument is that we should have more government involvement to solve problems that are created by to much government involvement. It would make more sense to reduce corporate taxes and reduce regulations.
How profitable do you think US manufacturers would be if they could not access markets outside of the US?
Nephi has been here since 1998, and you've been here nine months -- you're just a newborn.
Free trade dogma insists that everyone benefits from it in the long run, but history does not agree. In history there are winners and there are losers. Protectionism creates winners (pre 1870 England, Wilhelmine Germany, pre 1945 America, China, India, and Japan) and free trade creates losers (Spain, Holland, post 1900 England, post 1970 America).
Free trade, like Marxism, is a textbook theory that just plain does not work in the real world because nations are no more altruistic than people. When pushed to extremes it creates economic distortions that benefit people who live off of investments at the direct expense of people who live off of paychecks as the economy stops making things.
Go Pat Go!
So America expanded economically because it had a frontier while Britain didn't ? What, pray tell, were Canada, Australia, New Zealand, and southern Africa ? Not to mention the rest of the Empire. A little thing like the Indian subcontinent ?
Yelling "commie" is what the free trader always does when the facts have argued him into a corner.
Tell me how Hamilton, Lincoln, McKinley, Taft, Coolidge, and Hoover were commies.
"(.....pre 1945 America, China, India, and Japan)"
You're kidding right? The great depression, slave wages, 3rd world lifestyles and getting a nuclear bomb dropped on you is what you would consider "benefits"? For some dumb reason, I would prefer to live with the trade policies of post 1970 America, and live in the resulting environment, than live in China, India or any other protectionist country.
Well Put Sam......

Post-liver transplant chronic renal failure (CRF), defined as estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) <30 ml/min or end-stage renal disease (ESRD), is one of the major post-transplant co-morbidities among non-renal solid organ transplant recipients associated with increased mortality and high costs. Among all non-renal solid organ transplant recipients, liver transplant (LT) recipients have the second highest incidence of post-LT CRF despite the lower level of immunosuppression by calcineurin inhibitors, compared to heart and lung transplant recipients. The spectrum of renal dysfunction in the end-stage liver disease candidates varies from slight elevation in serum creatinine from pre-existing renal disease to full blown renal failure from hepatorenal syndrome requiring renal replacement therapy (RRT). Although candidates with hepatorenal syndrome usually recover their renal function after LT, the timing of renal recovery is variable. Moreover, the factors associated with renal recovery are not very well elucidated. On the other hand, candidates with pre-existing kidney disease are unlikely to recover their renal function after LT and may demonstrate stable renal function or progression to post-LT CRF. The overarching goal of this proposal is to understand the epidemiology of post- LT CRF among LT recipients. The main hypothesis is that there are other recipient, donor and transplant factors besides serum creatinine that contribute to the burden of post-LT CRF. To test this hypothesis, I have three aims:
Aim 1 : To develop and validate a model to predict the risk of post-LT CRF among candidates with eGFR e 30ml/min at LT;
Aim 1 b: To evaluate the contribution of post-LT CRF reflected in post-LT hospitalization rates;
Aim 2 : To examine the factors predicting renal recovery after LT among candidates with eGFR <30 ml/min or on RRT;
Aim 3 : To estimate the predicted a) post-LT CRF rates b) renal recovery rates after LT and c) hospitalization rates under the Model for end-stage Liver Disease (MELD), a measure of waitlist mortality and current allocation tool for LT, and alternative waitlist mortality models. I will use national data from the Scientific Registry of Transplant Recipients (SRTR) and the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) ESRD Program to conduct these studies. The conducive environment at the University of Michigan, didactic coursework from the highly rated School of Public Health, combined with excellent mentoring from experiential mentors, and access to large national clinical (SRTR) and administrative (CMS) databases will provide me with a strong foundation and aid me in achieving my long term career goal to become an independent, interdisciplinary, clinical investigator and leader in the field of organ transplantation.
Post-transplant chronic renal failure is one of the major public health problems among non-renal solid organ transplant recipients. The proposed studies would provide a better understanding of the epidemiology of post-LT CRF and improve post-transplant outcomes. These results may have implications in prevention and management during pre-, peri- and post-LT period including individualized tailoring of immunosuppression.

NEW DELHI: Former Pakistan captain Wasim Akram has said that the performance of most of the Indian fringe players during the ODI series against the West Indies has been disappointing.
Insisting that players like S Badrinath, Shikhar Dhawan, Parthiv Patel and Manoj Tiwary though made the ODI squad on the basis of their domestic performance and the IPL, failed to grab the opportunities in the Caribbean.
"India may have won the ODI series 3-2 against a new-look West Indian side, but I don't think the selectors will be happy with the performance of some of the fringe players who made the ODI squad because a clutch of seniors were unavailable," Akram was quoted as saying by a website.

Thanks for helping!
One of the best places I've been. Nice and comfy. Rustic place with the most amazing flavors!! Staff is lovable!!!
Visited with friends, friendly staff and very welcoming. The food was okay and the hospitality was to notch.
Nice atmosphere, great food, priced just about right!"
Had a " baked salmon pie with prawn"! 😋😋😋😋
Last time I was here was in early November with 5 friends. We choose a table outside in order to appreciate the nice weather, although the dining room was very inviting. Nice staff, really helpfull. We chose the moussaka, wich was wonderfully cooked, and a great Alentejo red wine to go with it. Very reasonably priced. I do recommend!
I went here to celebrate my 30th birthday, and it was in a very cute area. We went up the cobblestone walkway, then up a steep flight of stairs to enter a cozy dining area. I am not sure if there is a lower level, because to be honest it felt a little cramped in there. The menu online had...
My husband and I ate here in the evening. We were welcomed by the owner and a roaring log fire. We had read the reviews and knew the portions were large so did not have a starter and went straight to the main course. The portions were generous but had little flavour. I had the salmon and prawn bake which...
Went for lunch and left feeling very disappointed. My food took forever (I think they forgot about my entree). The entree itself (prawn crepe) was also very ordinary and not worth the 30 minute wait. They charged me for the bread I barely picked at, cheese, a little slab of butter (seriously?) without telling me it wasn't complimentary, and bottled...
We had a couple of group dinners here in October, 2016. Food and service were very good and the portions were huge; the second night most couples shared a meal. Nice atmosphere and very good service. Good house wine and my wife like the sangria.
Probably the best cod I have ever eaten. Loved the dishes- beans, cheese, cod and sea bass
Proper Portuguese food, great location also
Whenever I visit Sintra it's not the same without stopping here for a meal. Delicious Portuguese food and nice local traditional feel if that is what you are after. Cannot go wrong with the meals!

A little information about Cambridge Shores.
Cambridge Shores is just 5 minutes from Tanglewood Resort and Highport Marina and some of the best dining and entertainment in Texas.

Re: Galissas
I stayed in Hotel Francoise and thought it was quite a good deal price wise and location wise. It will be very busy in August, so if you could adjust your timing I would suggest September. but from the other side, I think you duaghters will enjoy the company of other people. but for entertainment, the best place is Ermoupoli. a public bus goes regurlarly from Galissa to Ermoupoli and stops just outside of Hotel Francoise.
enjoy your trip to Syros, best, Olya

The goal of this Mentored Patient-Oriented Research Career Development Award (K23) is to prepare Dr. Bagner for an independent clinical research career focused on developing preventive interventions for infants and their families. Dr. Bagner's long-term career goals are to develop a transdiciplinary research program examining effective interventions for infants at risk for externalizing behavior problems and help advance evidence-based practice for infants with other behavioral and emotional problems. In the context of the K23 training plan, Dr. Bagner's short-term training goals are to: (1) acquire specialized training in the unique processes of infant development, including typical and at-risk populations, and the nature of relationship-based interventions;(2) gain knowledge and expertise in the design, execution, and analysis of conducting home- based prevention trials with infants and their families;and (3) broaden understanding of ethical and multicultural issues relevant to conducting intervention research with low-income families. This training plan will be facilitated by: (a) expert mentorship from Drs. Wendy Silverman, Barry Lester, David Olds, Lorraine Bahrick, Alice Carter, James Jaccard, William Pelham, and Jose Rosa-Olivares;(b) formal coursework and seminars;(c) directed readings;(d) focused clinical experiences in the area of infant mental health;(e) the diverse resources available at Florida International University and Miami Children's Hospital;and (f) implementation of the proposed research project. Dr. Bagner will implement a 5-year research study in which he will develop and evaluate the potential efficacy of a preventive intervention for infants at risk for externalizing behavior problems. The intervention will be an adaptation of Parent-Child Interaction Therapy for use with infants in the home setting (i.e., PCIT-I). The first 18 months of the proposed award will be devoted to developing PCIT-I and piloting it in an open trial. Subsequently, Dr. Bagner will conduct a small randomized trial comparing PCIT-I to standard care. Data concerning the feasibility and acceptability of PCIT-I and clinical significance of findings, combined with results from statistical analyses, will be used to inform an R01 application for a stage II clinical trial.
Negative outcomes of early externalizing behavior problems in childhood are overrepresented in low-income families and represent a significant public health concern. Despite recent findings that externalizing behavior problems can be identified as early as 12 months, there has been limited research examining the prevention of later externalizing behavior problems in infants from low-income families.

Tropical Fish Keeping - Aquarium fish care and resources (http://www.tropicalfishkeeping.com/forum.php)
- Beginner Planted Aquarium (http://www.tropicalfishkeeping.com/beginner-planted-aquarium/)
- - Q1: Substrate advice (http://www.tropicalfishkeeping.com/beginner-planted-aquarium/q1-substrate-advice-312106/)
Q1: Substrate advice
I have looked into substrate and have found the following two that seem reasonable. Has anybody used either and what are their thoughts.
Tetra plant complete substrate 5.8kg £13
ADA Aqua Soil 9Lites £35
Both are enough to put a 2-3 cm layer on bottom of my tank.
The only difference I see is that the aqua soil give an initial ammonia spike to help the fishless cycle.
hello friend!
I think if you would convert your units into pounds , inches, and dollars it would help us on this side of the pond(atlantic ocean). I have no trouble doing the conversions mentally but others maybe . Sorry I don't know anything about either product but the one that causes ammonia spike sounds really interesting. Please post when you decide what is best, I'll be interested to see what you choose. Thanks
I have never heard of the first one but lots of ppl use ADA aquasoil in planted tanks. I personally have no experience with it. It does cause an ammonia spike as you states which will help a fish less cycle but also is plant food.
I use 1" canadian sphaghnum peat moss. 1" play sand, and 1" of a baked red clay called pro choice select here in the US. (you probably could substitue and read baked clay or aquarium gravel for that)

Economics of Mobile Telecommunications by Harald Gruber
Book DescriptionThe mobile telecommunications industry is one of the most rapidly growing sectors around the world. This book offers a comprehensive economic analysis of the main determinants of growth in the industry. Harald Gruber demonstrates the importance of competitive entry and the setting of technological standards, both of which play a central role in their contribution to the fast diffusion of technology. Detailed country studies provide empirical evidence for the development of the main themes: the diffusion of mobile telecommunications services, the pricing policies in network industries, the role of entry barriers such as radio spectrum and spectrum allocation procedures. This research-based survey will appeal to a wide range of applied industrial economists within universities, government and the industry itself.

I've got a couple of friends over at the moment. One of them is an avid bird watcher (yeah, avian not females) and he's read his guidebook and sees that Sam Roi Yot is the place to be. It's on the Sino-Australian migration path.
So, we could well go down there tomorrow but can anyone educate me about entrance to the national park and especially the availability, cost etc of a ranger.
I know the Dolphin Bay area quite well but I havn't got a clue about parks. I know that it'll cost xy and z but it's a ranger that I'm most interested about.
Thanks for any advice.
