Opera's behavior is interesting. Safari and Firefox always drag the link FWIW. I think this is a UI decision that should be left up to the UA.

That is platform- and implementation-specific. I'm willing to believe there are ways of implementing the requirement, however I do not think the suggested "one implementation option" is in fact implementable or legal per the spec. I request that it be replaced with an implementable approach (perhaps based on what Opera does). However the fact that Opera does not support link dragging in SVG means their specific approach is unlikely to meet UI requirements of other UAs. > If this does not satisfy your concern, please respond within 2 > weeks with > further clarification.

In negotiating with the Cheam and their representatives, it has become clear that Burners and the Cheam share many common Principles, particularly for gifting, expression, and respect for our homes.
Respect the Land
The foundation of our relationship with the Sto:lo is respect for the land. If we treat it as our own home – as we always have at Burn In The Forest – then we honour everyone involved. Let's keep our site tidy, and leave no trace. We may do some light "pruning" to clear our campsite, but don't cut any trees. If we must bring a generator, ensure that we spill no fuel, etc. And not to be forgotten – let's take care of ourselves on this land.
Respect the Hosts
There is a Sto:lo caretaker who has been on the site for 40 years, and will be present throughout the weekend. Feel free to ask him for stories about the property!
A few members of the Cheam band council may visit for a scheduled, guided tour. We have also asked them for a welcome performance and perhaps a workshop on their culture – more on this later. Please join in!
A handful of Sto:lo fishermen will use the boat launch throughout the weekend. They are only passing through the site to the riverbed, and will be escorted to and from the launch by BITF staff.
There is a trading post near the site entrance, where local Cheam will have fresh local fruits, vegetables, and salmon, as well as camping supplies. We can support our hosts in their livelihood by purchasing the trading post, or using their garbage drop-off service outside the grounds when we leave.
Explore the Land
This is not Squamish Valley, this is new ground for all Citizens… please explore and utilize the space fully, and have fun here. Think of awesome ideas that you would like to see next year, when we have more time to plan in the space!
The Fraser (Sto:lo) River ♦ The Grounds ♦ Insects and Wildlife ♦ Services ♦ Respecting our Hosts

John M. Barry is the author of the new book Roger Williams and the Creation of the American Soul: Church, State and the Birth of Liberty (Viking). Barry talked with Church & State recently about Williams, the founder of Rhode Island and a great religious liberty pioneer.
Q. What sparked your interest in Williams' place in American history?
A. Oddly enough, I started out planning to write a book on the home front in World War I and the war's immediate aftermath. I was going to follow several characters, one of whom was Billy Sunday, the early 20th-century evangelist who also got deeply into politics. I planned to use him as a narrative vehicle to look at the role of religion in American public life.
While researching that subject, I began to think the whole book should be about church and state. And to understand the argument over that issue, I went back to its beginning. I ended up writing the whole book about that initial argument for two reasons. First, the argument hasn't changed at all in 400 years and looking at it in its purest form helps us understand what's at stake now. Second, it demonstrates that freedom of religion was and is intimately linked to freedom itself.
Q. People tend to think about Thomas Jefferson and James Madison when the subject of religious freedom and church-state separation comes up. Why does Roger Williams get overlooked?
A. We seem in general to think our own history started with the American Revolution. It's as if the world didn't exist until then. We also seem to think the Founding Fathers invented the Constitution from whole cloth, whereas actually they had a deep understanding of and learned lessons from what had gone before. That was the history which Williams lived through and helped make both in England and America.
Q. Williams spoke of the need for a "wall of separation" between the garden of the church and the wilderness of the world. It's phrase strikingly reminiscent of Thomas Jefferson's "wall of separation between church and state" metaphor. Yet there is no evidence that Jefferson knew of Williams' writings. In light of that, what was Williams' impact on the Founding Fathers?
A. His impact was both direct and indirect. First, Williams was an example, America's first rebel, America's first contradictor of authority. He was out there, part of the intellectual environment. Everyone knew who he was. His history was known. Second, in 1776, two biographies of Williams were published, one by a signer of the Declaration of Independence, reminding those active in politics of WiIliams' contributions just as we ourselves were rebelling against Britain. Third, Williams was a tremendous influence on John Locke, especially in the area of religious freedom. In fact, Williams went well beyond Locke, who did not want to grant toleration to Catholics or atheists. And Locke was in turn a huge influence on the Founding Fathers, especially Jefferson. Fourth, the charter of Rhode Island assured absolute freedom of religion in the colony. King Charles II – who reclaimed the crown in 1660 – liked Rhode Island's charter so much that, even though there was no religious toleration in England itself, he inserted the same language into charters of several other colonies. In those colonies he did establish the Church of England, but their charters prohibited punishing religious dissenters. They allowed freedom of worship. So the idea got into the American bloodstream.
Q. Williams has been called "revolutionary." What about him merits the use of that phrase?
A. In fact, John Quincy Adams called him "altogether revolutionary," and he didn't mean it as a compliment. Williams believed in real freedom. He was not the first to call for separation of church and state, but he was the first to call for it who was not being persecuted at the time. Even more revolutionary was rejecting two ideas: first, that the authority of government came from God – which was almost universally held then – and second, that God punished sinning countries and rewarded godly ones. You heard that last line from Jerry Falwell and Pat Robertson, who blamed gays and the Supreme Court's school prayer decision and the ACLU for 9/11. But most revolutionary of all was Williams' declaration that "the sovereign, original, and foundation of civil power lies in the people," and governments "have no more power, nor for longer time, than the people consenting shall betrust them with." He was probably the first in the world and certainly the first Englishman – or American – to say that, which is hard to imagine since the idea is such a commonplace today.
Q. Tell us about Williams' vision of separation of church and state. He seems to have seen a combination of the two as especially dangerous to the church. Why did he feel this way?
A. There's the obvious New Testament verse about rendering unto Caesar, and he took that seriously. But it was more than that. He believed in a pure church, and he believed that any time you mix religion and politics, you get politics. To keep the church pure, he thought you had to keep it entirely away from the corruption of worldly affairs. He looked at both history and his own experience, and concluded this was true. England had been Catholic, then Protestant, then Catholic, then Protestant, all in a period of roughly half a century. He regarded all of those churches as corrupted by politics – and they were.
Q. "Secular" is something of a dirty word in American politics today with people like Newt Gingrich assailing "secular elites" and accusing President Barack Obama of favoring "secular" policies. What were Williams' views on secular government?
A. Just as he wanted a purely religious church, he wanted a purely secular government. He rejected the idea that government should be "nursing father" to the church, i.e., help the church, an idea which nearly everyone else at the time believed in. He recognized that if a government was going to try to do that, then a human had to make a judgment about something to do with God. He considered this blasphemous – God was supposed to judge humans, not the other way around.
As a corollary to that, he rejected the idea of the government imposing a moral code, such as in Calvin's Geneva, where playing cards, bowling and so forth were against the law. The government, he insisted, should only deal with civil, secular issues. In terms of law, government should limit itself to governing how people treat each other – murder, robbery and so forth – and stay away from limits on any kind of thought.
He would have opposed school prayer for several reasons. First, and most importantly, he said "forced worship stinks in God's nostrils" and called it "spiritual rape." Second, he believed prayer was a solemn act requiring concentration and effort.
Imagine a school filled with classrooms of 14-year-old kids, engaged in a prayer. How many of them are actually praying, and how many would be thinking about whether their makeup hid their acne, or stealing glances at the boy or girl a row over? The idea of prayer in that setting would have appalled him.
He also said religion didn't matter in running the government, any more than it mattered whether a Christian was captain of a ship. What mattered was whether the captain was a good sailor, not his religion. He said a Christian government official was "no more" likely to be good at governing than "one of any other Conscience or Religion." Try saying that today and getting elected.
Q. What can today's religious leaders learn from Roger Williams?
A. That mixing in politics corrupts the church. That's a statement of fact. This doesn't mean that individuals should not bring their values into the public square, that one's moral views shouldn't inform one's political decisions.
Q. What can today's political leaders learn from Roger Williams?
A. That bringing the church into politics infringes on freedom. Williams was one of the first and strongest defenders of free speech, even before his friend John Milton was. A little courage in politicians would be nice to see. Not every day, we can't expect too much, just once in a while would be enough.
Q. It's always dangerous to speculate about how historical figures might react to current events, but if Roger Williams could see America and its religious diversity today, what do you think he might say?
A. In this case, you can be sure he would applaud it. He specifically stated that "the most Paganish, Jewish, Turkish, or anti-Christian worships" should have freedom of religion "in all Nations."
Q. What can we do to best keep alive the legacy and spirit of Roger Williams?
A. Understand what he stood for. That should be enough.

Mobile Individual Quick Freeze (IQF) Transfer to Patricia A. Hannaford Career Center
The Vermont Agency of Agriculture, Food & Markets (VAAFM) completed the transfer of its mobile quick freeze unit to the Patricia A. Hannaford Career Center of Middlebury, Vermont on October 5, 2015. For more information about the unit, see below or view the press release.
In 2008, the Vermont Agency of Agriculture, Food & Markets acquired one of the nation's first mobile individual quick freeze (IQF) units with grant funding from the United States Department of Agriculture, Rural Development and the Vermont Department of Tourism & Marketing. VAAFM organized construction of the IQF unit for the purpose of increasing sales opportunities for Vermont farmers and specialty food producers by expanding year-round availability of Vermont produce.
Originally valued at approximately $40,000, the unit sits inside an 8 x 18' trailer and is designed to flash freeze berries—although it can also be used for other types of processed (blanched, chopped and/or bagged) or unprocessed (whole) produce. It can freeze up to 600 pounds of berries per hour and includes storage space for up to 800 pounds of frozen berries.
After its initial construction, VAAFM staff transported the unit for use on farms throughout Vermont, including Blueberry Ridge (North Troy), Cerridwen Farm at Green Mountain College (Poultney), Champlain Orchards (Shoreham), and Pete's Greens (Craftsbury Center). From 2011 to 2013, the unit was leased to Green Mountain College (GMC), which partnered with Rutland Area Farm and Food Link and the Poultney-Mettowee Natural Resources Conservation District to conduct a pilot study of the unit as a stationary resource paired with a commercial kitchen and develop best practices for its future use.
Best Practices
While stationed within a mobile trailer, the IQF unit works best as a temporary/stationary unit paired with a commercial kitchen or processing space. The unit can serve as an opportunity for businesses to test the market for flash frozen products before scaling up to permanent infrastructure. For further detail, consult the resources below.

"Edvard Munch: The Modern Life of the Soul" exhibition opens at the Museum of Modern Art in New York on the 19th of February, through to the 8th of May 2006. The retrospective of the famous Norwegian artist is the first to be held at the MoMA for more than 30 years.
Edvard Munch's famous Scream painting has been in the news quite a bit lately, with those suspected of stealing the painting going on trial this week in an Oslo court.
Anyway, the exhibition at the MoMA is an attempt to show that Munch was not a one hit wonder, but had quite a lot more going for him than just one iconic image. It covers his whole oeuvre, spanning more than 60 years. More than 130 oil paintings, works on paper, and prints by the artist will be on display.
Edvard Munch: The Modern Life of the Soul @ MoMA
"Beginning with the artist's early portraits and genre scenes, the exhibition charts Munch's move away from Norwegian naturalism toward an unprecedented exploration of modern existential experience. Through eighty-seven paintings and fifty works on paper representing each phase of his career, the exhibition reveals Munch's struggle to translate personal trauma into universal terms and, in the process, comprehend the fundamental components of human existence: birth, love, and death." MoMA Exhibition

How far can I go? Social mobility of CMWs in AJK.
This research project was initiated in February 2011 in all 10 districts of Azad Jammu and Kashmir (AJK). The main objective of the research was to assess the social mobility of community midwives (CMWs) with reference to geographical and economic accessibility, social acceptability and relationship of these midwives with other care providers.
It was a mixed method research study conducted by the use of GIS mapping of all the CMWs in AJK. Qualitative research methods using in-depth interviews and focus group discussions were used in all 10 districts. A quantitative survey comprising of 400 households with 300 female and 100 male respondents was conducted in each district.

Allison Wyatt another UN-DEAD of Sandy Hook
In this series, we will discover the true origin and fate of the children "victims" of the Sandy Hook 'shooting' incident.
A careful search of the available records, fails to validate a single one of the identities or names appearing in the database of fake child victims. Instead, we see a collection of disposable identities evidently cultivated specifically for the event. These identities are portrayed by real children as models, using photographs of various suitable dates. Incredibly, in an act that sets a new standard in audacious fraud, the SAME children were put on display – as a group – on broadcast television… allowing all of them to be visually accounted for two months AFTER their ostensible demise! (More exactly, that of the identities they portrayed.)
The names of the children while on stage, were naturally kept… 'confidential'.
Children must be handled differently from adults, for purposes of staging faked deaths in drills. Largely, this is because minors CANNOT legally sign non-disclosure agreements – or enter into any binding contract, for that matter. That is probably the main impetus for entirely fabricated identities being used for the roles of children in Sandy Hook. The children / models themselves, have likely been kept more or less ignorant of their exact roles for this reason; lest they divulge the fraud later, unbound by confidentiality.
The same ignorance CANNOT be used as an excuse by the participating adults, however.
A reasonable guess as to HOW faked children's names could be enrolled in a school, might involve the fact that the PRINCIPAL of the school was (is) RELATED to the Lanza family – including of course to Ryan Lanza, whose alter-ego "Adam" is designated as the 'shooter'.
Remember as well that Nancy Lanza's sister is proven to have been an important figure in the CIA. How cool is that? Perhaps a little investigation of Dawn Hochsprung's relationship with the CIA is worth doing at also.

More inspirational words… Here is a favorite quotation.
"As long as I kept my mental focus on the destinations that were ahead, destinations that I had the audacity to dream… I protected myself from despair. The future was uncertain, absolutely, and there were many hurdles, twists, and turns to come, but as long as I kept moving forward, one foot in front of the other, the voices of fear and shame, the messages from those who wanted me to believe that I wasn't good enough, would be stilled. "Go forward. That became my mantra"
From the Pursuit of Happiness by Chris Gardner
And so dear heart, I ask you this morning, as per the above quotation…
What destinations are ahead for you? What destinations do you have the audacity to dream?
This year seems to be moving so fast. Some of you are very pleased with what you have already accomplished this year so far. Others of you are disappointed that you were not able to keep going at the pace that you started with.
Please don't let any feelings of disappointment or anxiety over what did or didn't happen so far this year, steal your peace. Feel those feelings, don't keep them bottled up inside. Write about them if you have to, cry about them if you feel like it, and then just let them go. The treasures they brought you will lay at your feet and you will feel lighter for having done that.
Remember that life is always there beckoning to you with a new moment, a new hour, a new day, a new week, a new month, a new year, a new life. You are always given another opportunity, another chance, another choice, to go for your dreams. You need only reach out and grab it.
Every day is a new day, with new possibilities just waiting there for you.
What will you allow yourself to achieve today?
Where will you put your focus this morning?
If any doubts or feelings of unworthiness creep in as you go about your day, will you make the choice to gently release them? No resistance, just a gentle letting go?
What one step will you take toward your dream on this new day.
Will you make the choice once again to move forward, one foot in front of the other, a brave and gentle soul, no matter what? I hope so!
And if you need some encouragement with this, take another look at my complimentary 5 minute Inspirational video entitled "Prosperity Wishes". It is full of inspirational words and pictures that are sure to inspire you! Just click below.
Enjoy, take care and have a beloved day.
Love and blessings, Veronica (email@example.com)

Now i've had MRI's in the long past, but I seem to get numbness in my limbs especially when sitting or compression: Noones suspected MS, but this is more of a question of symptoms.
Specifically with any type of neurpathy (Such as numbness).
With MS: Would the numbness be constant? I mean it's from a lesion, so wouldn't you have it ALL the time rather than just specific times during the day (For me it's getting out of my computer chair (Which has poor support) or laying on the couch/bed and laying on an arm or something).
I suspect I probably have BFS, and apparently with BFS stuff can go numb VERY easily. But I mainly a just curious about something like this happening with MS: Would you just have numbness "all the time" while you had a flair up, or would it come and go throughout the day?

On World Book Day on the 5th of March this year, many schools in the UK had a 'non-uniform' day, and children were encouraged to dress themselves up as a character from a book that they love.
Many children dressed up as characters such as Spiderman, Batman and Superman, Ironman, Harry Potter, Sherlock Holmes, James Bond, Dracula, Wally, or Dorothy from The Wizard of Oz.
Normally my son doesn't like dressing up as other characters, but this year, he decided to dress up as his favourite character, The Doctor. The Doctor is the main character from the television show Doctor Who, the longest running sci-fi series of all time. He is an alien who travels in a time machine and fights aliens and visits new worlds. The show's longevity stems from The Doctor's ability to change his appearance, with every version (or incarnation) being completely different from the last. There have been 12 Doctors.
My son told me his scarf is the Fourth Doctor's, the hat is the Seventh Doctor's, and the trench coat, shirt and tie are the Tenth Doctor's.
My 14-year-old son started watching Doctor Who at the age of seven, and is a big fan of The Doctor. The Doctor Who followers call themselves whovians. My son's bedroom is filled with Doctor Who memorabilia. Walls are covered with Doctor Who posters. His Christmas present from me last year was a crocheted Doctor Who themed blanket.
I think I'm pleased my son's favourite character is an evil-fighting Doctor, quirky, imaginative, powerful and yet emotional. Doctor Who stories seem intriguing and inspiring to him, and he reads all Doctor Who related books, magazines, and gossips. He watches Doctor Who films and listens to the audiobooks too. My son is so passionate about Doctor Who that most of his blog posts are dedicated to Doctor Who.
In another secondary school, on World Book Day, a 11-year-old boy went to school dressed up as Christian Grey, the male character from explicit novel Fifty Shades of Grey. The boy wore a grey suit and carried cable ties and an eye mask. The boy's school understandably excluded him from his school's World Book Day celebrations. Call me old-fashioned, I was most baffled that the boy's mother (a teacher) thought it was acceptable for his 11-year-old son to identify himself as an erotic character. Mother and son both thought the dressing up was meant for a bit of fun and tongue-in-cheek.
When I was growing up, we didn't have dressing up days. We went to school in full uniform all year, and entertainment was not part of our education. My son's education seems to contain a lot of 'fun' elements that I never seemed to have. Throughout my son's education in England, there are all sorts of excuses for non-uniform days, from World Book Day, Comic Relief Day (Red Nose Day), BBC Children in Need fundraising day, and today, the second of April, World Autism Awareness Day, where everyone was encouraged to wear something in blue today to show solidarity with people in the autistic spectrum.
When my son was in primary school, sometimes he was asked to dress up as a Roman peasant or a Victorian character. My son loved reading about history, but would not want to dress up. Dressing up days therefore had caused a lot of stress for me as a mother. I watched other children walking to school in ancient costumes, while my son was determined to wear school uniform only. I would apologise to teachers that my son did not like to engage in dressing up, but I know the teachers kept encouraging him to change his mind.
I'm so pleased that those Roman or Victorian time and his primary school years were over, as I found no joy myself in those dressing up days, which added unnecessary stress and embarrassment to me at times. Now my son could decide if he wants to dress up. Finally as a proper teenager, now he is happy to dress up as The Doctor, the character that he can relate to, and wish to be one.

North Carolina expired days and days ago, and I'm only now summoning the energy to eulogize about yet another disastrous national-title pick by me.
Roy Williams has bopped me before when he was Kansas. He just bopped me again with North Carolina. Nice collapse, fellahs. Excellent collapse.
That's all I really have to say about it. I know: That took a five days? Sorry, I get depressed over these things. Needed time to heal, so I sent myself to my happy place for a while.
OK, in other bad tournament news: Georgetown's second-half drop-kicking of UNC also ruined my NCAA Survivor Pool hopes, if you were counting.
I still have Florida left on one side of the Final Four pairings, but I've already used Georgetown and Ohio State (ages ago for the Buckeyes), so I'm toast. I cannot get an unused team to the champ game.
On to more salient things:
* Speaking of my buddy Roy W., he's one of 15 finalists for election to the Naismith Basketball Hall of Fame this year, which will be announced Monday–before the national-title game in Atlanta.
Roy probably won't get in. Looks to me like Phil Jackson and Dick Vitale are pretty sure bets.
Oh yeah, and that Chris Mullin guy is by far the leading candidate among former players. You know him at all? I'm sorry, I've sort of lost track of him recently.
What's he doing now? Anything important? Just goofing around? (If you're just clicking here from Mars or Newfoundland, I'm kidding. I happen to write about Mullin just a bit here in his duties as Warrior exec VP.)

The Xilinx Application Note 179 (Xilinx XAPP179), "Using SelectI/O Interfaces in Spartan-II and Spartan-IIE FPGASs" does not include entries for LVDS and LVPECL. What is the recommended maximum number of SSOs for these signals?
Are there SSO guidelines for Spartan-3?
NOTE: For a detailed discussion on handling SSOs, see (Xilinx XAPP689): "Managing Ground Bounce in Large FPGAs."
For SSO guidelines, use these substitutions:
Spartan-IIE, LVDS: one output pair = one LVTTL 2mA driver with fast slew rate
Spartan-IIE, LVPECL: one output pair = one LVTTL 24mA driver with fast slew rate
The Spartan-IIE SSO guidelines are provided in (Xilinx XAPP179). Select "Design Considerations" -> "Simultaneous Switching Guidelines".
Because the Spartan-3 LVDS driver is very balanced, its switching causes a negligible amount of transient current. As a result, SSOs are typically not a problem in the smaller device/package combinations. However, SSO does become a concern with the larger device/package combinations so please be aware of the SSO guidelines for Spartan-3.
The Spartan-3 SSO guidelines are provided in the "Spartan-3 DC and Switching Characteristic" Data Sheet located at:
Select "Switching Characteristics" -> "Simultaneous Switching Output Guidelines".

Brendan Behan (1923-1964) was, among other things, a drunkard, an IRA activist, a public nuisance, and an ex-con. He once approached a group of shoppers standing in line and begged money from them, saying he had ten children at home to feed. What he didn't say is that he wanted the money so that he could get good and drunk and forget about his children for a while. Offsetting that, if anything can, is the fact that he became a worldwide celebrity for his literary works, including several plays (The Quare...more

Dollar favorite in glue factory derby
The dollar may hang by the slender thread of the U.S. recovery, but this is probably enough to make it the major currency of choice.
It is not so much that the dollar is strong, but that the case for its major peers — the euro, pound and yen — is so weak.
The euro zone faces tremendous pressure; Greece may, just, have been rescued, but it, along with Portugal, Spain, Ireland and Italy are unleashing powerful deflationary forces making quantitative easing by the European Central Bank a real possibility. Further contagion within the euro zone is also a strong possibility, meaning market risk will compound fundamental risk.
Even when the result of Britain's election is clear, the path to a better fiscal picture is not, and when it comes, it will deal a blow to the economy.
Japan, as for so long, is not really going anywhere and doing so in an erratic fashion, again the implication being that the Bank of Japan will keep rates ultra-low.
The United States, then, is the pick of a bad bunch.
"The dollar is the best-looking horse in the glue derby" said Jan Randolph, director of sovereign risk at IHS Global Insight, speaking at a Euromoney foreign exchange conference on Tuesday.
U.S. manufacturing expanded at its fastest pace in nearly six years in April, though there is some question about how much is actual final demand and how much inventory restocking. Consumers too seem to be doing their thing again; they increased spending for the sixth straight month in April, though they did it courtesy of government transfers and a declining savings rate.
While there are questions about the sustainability of the U.S. recovery, it is also true theFederal Reserve is a lot more likely than any of its big-time peers to start raising rates any time soon, providing further support for the dollar.
In fact, if anything, what is striking is what unanimity there seems to be about currencies among investors and strategists. Everyone, seemingly, sees the dollar getting stronger in the coming year, though many expect there to be considerably more volatility than in the past 12 months. This unanimity could mean that an unexpected event might see a strong reversal.
And really, if you stop to consider the major alternatives, it is easy to see why the dollar is so popular. Thus far this year it has gained more than 10 percent against the euro, 6 percent against the pound and 5 percent versus the yen.

It is not so much that the dollar is strong, but that the case for its major peers — the euro, pound and yen — is so weak.
Doublespeak at its finest. That's like saying to an Olympian, "It's not that you deserved a Gold Medal, it's just that your competition sucked worse than you did."
Let's compare economics, the USA has a 85% service industry driven economy. The Europeans have a 60%+ production industry driven economy. The European exports have been hurt by an "overvalued" Euro, but have not been able to do anything about that – "because the USA is going down in debt-flames and the Euro is so good".
THANK YOU Mr and Mrs Hedgefund to take care of something the Europeans could not have done by any means: "Make the Euro a competitive export currency again!" Now Euro-priced products are competitive, factories can produce and sell, can hire (unemployed) again, profits will rise, tax-income for the EU will increase, and slowly but steadily the merits of a production-industry driven economy will come to the fore, thus "working themselves out of a bind". Let the Euro go to USD 1,10
69% of German economy is services
76% of US economy is services
77% of France economy is services

Thanks for those statistics PwIM! Still, all of a sudden we're underbidding by a margin, gearing up for more sales, looking at contacting the employment office, there's a spring in the step of our sales-division staff! The last 2 years have been terrible, and now the sun is shining again.
The American people will not pay for major items and "homes" they "buy"..they'll take stuff home and stiff the lenders. The fabled Protestant ethic and desire to "pay" for anything is dead.I do see an uptick in home improvement and preparedness spending where I live and true efforts to harden the target. There is a general feeling that things are going off the cliff and the "government" at all levels is not in their corner and is not "fixable", that banks and government and chain stores are just predators. And there is a simmering anger. They know they have been "gamed" by the banks and the "government". They know that dollar "money" and loans are necessary evils for now. The only strength the fiat dollar has is the people's faith in it and the institutions behind it..don't count on this faith continuing for long..There is a new wind blowing..it'll be rough on things as they have been including the fiat dollar..the banksters and the elected representatives who gave them cover overreached..a "restructuring" is in the wind..yes, this includes PIMCO debt and the works..
Well balanced opinion James Saft,
"A dollar is a dollar" that was true with no Euro
comparison. Just print money, dollars and create a
dynamic sub-prime environment to feed investments
on borrowed money. This is over now, so what's up
how to survive?
Two strategies:
remembers the new debt limit of 3% GDP
France today stopped all increasing expenses for
next 3 years. This way the Greece crisis makes
corrections versus balance sheet in order for
Europe 2012.
counting on technology leadership Cleantech, smartgrid,
Electric vehicles…on this future cash cows can print
more Dollars, will also work out the dynamic approach.
Conclusion: Let Europe and U.S. turn again the wheel of
the economy "Cleantech" it will work, a hybrid trans-
Atlantic approach has more success chances, than
overpopulated China-India consumer communism
running into climate change trouble with not
yet having a global responsibility view.
Great comments and quality debate
worth to continue…..
In fairness to the dollar, in spite of all the Wall Street machinations that have rendered it otherwise null and void, it's still the international currency of choice for slave traders, hijackers, gun and drug runners, whores, mercenaries and environmental saboteurs: growth industries all.
I'm amazed how our economy is holding up the way it is considering nearly 108T$ debt liability ( as per www.usdebtclock.org ). It's like a family with a debt of $108, earns $2 per year (in tax receipts) and spends over $3 per year (in budget expenses). How will this family sustain?

Facebook's New Amazon Feature
Facebook (NASDAQ: FB) recently introduced a new feature that may have been inspired by Twitter (NYSE: TWTR). Now the company is exploring e-commerce with a Buy button that might have been inspired by Amazon (NASDAQ: AMZN).
The company's description is pretty straightforward: "With this feature, people on desktop or mobile can click the 'Buy' call-to-action button on ads and Page posts to purchase a product directly from a business, without leaving Facebook."
Facebook is not the only social network that wants its users to spend money. Twitter also introduced a Buy Now button in June.
Revenue Streams
"I think Internet businesses are slowing, and therefore they're looking at other people's revenue stream to help theirs," Needham & Co. analyst Laura Martin told Benzinga. "I think [it's] everybody doing everything. Google and Facebook are both entering e-commerce."
Martin thinks that these companies should continue to experiment, but she is confident video will prove to be the next big thing for Facebook.
"I think what we're gonna hear this week is all about video," she said. "I think they have a lot of optionality with their reach, but I think their main focus is video next, if you're talking about monetization."
Facebook is scheduled to report its second quarter earnings after the market close on Wednesday.
"They may dabble in these other things, but I don't think that's going to be their main focus," Martin added.
No Original Content
Yahoo and other Internet giants are actively searching for original content. Facebook did the same and launched its first social series, Aim High, in 2011. The series was later picked up by Crackle.
Since then, Facebook has not done much in the realm of original content. Martin does not expect that to change anytime soon.
"I don't think they'll do content," she said. "I certainly do not. Everything is about social. These guys haven't shown any indication [that] they'll do stuff that isn't social."
Disclosure: At the time of this writing, Louis Bedigian had no position in the equities mentioned in this report.

Raclette, named for the French verb racler meaning to scrape, is a traditional Swiss meal originating from the campfire dishes that were created by scraping melted cheese over ham and potatoes. Good raclette recipes feature the cheese, ham and assorted garnishes and are easy to make although they do require a heating stone or tile and heat source or an electric raclette grill.
A basic raclette recipe only takes a few minutes to cook, but requires about a half hour to prepare. It includes a large wedge raclette, sliced cheese, unpeeled cooked small new potatoes, pickled garnishes (such as cornichons, pickled onions or caper berries), Black Forest ham and tomatoes slices. Arrange the potatoes, ham and tomatoes on a serving platter. Melt the cheese onto the platter with the ham, potatoes and tomatoes with additional garnishes.
A variation on this recipe features the basics of potatoes, ham and tomatoes, but also features baby zucchini, asparagus and broccolini. In this recipe, grill the vegetables and layer them together with the potatoes, tomatoes and ham. These can be served on one large tray or on individual plates. Melt the cheese on top of the plate and serve with pickled garnishes. A crusty bread, such as French bread, makes for a flavorful accompaniment.

Chances are, you've got a pair (or five) of cut-off shorts that you turn to time and time again, whether you're embarking on a cross-borough bike trip, helping your friend rearrange her living room, hitting the shoreline for some rays, or just generally getting down, dirty, and disheveled.
But, for a gallery opening? A first date (with someone who's over the age of 21)? You might not immediately turn to cut-offs, but you should. We've styled five innovative outfits that feature the jorts in all their frayed, faded glory, and make them seem like an irreverent, high-fashion addition to an outfit — not a shlubby afterthought.

How To Sell Your MacBook Pro – 3 Things to Consider When Finding The Best Place to Sell Macs
Apple launches new products every year, and learning how to sell your MacBook Pro is a great way to offset the cost of buying a new Mac. Finding the best place to sell Macs can sometimes seem like a daunting process. There are many options and varying opinions on the best sales channel to use. Many sellers believe you will get the most money for your MacBook Pro by selling on Craigslist, eBay, or Amazon. When choosing the best place to sell Macs online, sellers often don't take into consideration time spent, security, and transaction fees.
1. Amount of time spent:
Let's face it. Time is money. The more time spent learning how to sell your MacBook Pro, preparing it, and completing the sale, the less money you make. The average time spent selling a MacBook Pro to an end user is approximately 5 hours.
- eBay/Amazon: Using eBay as a selling platform isn't all that bad. They provide the tools for you to generate an attractive listing to sell a MacBook Pro online. There are downsides to eBay that can make this process extremely tedious.
1. If you have never sold anything on eBay or PayPal, they will hold your first 25 payments for up to 21 days (https://www.paypal.com/us/selfhelp/article/Why-is-my-payment-from-a-sale-on-eBay-on-hold-FAQ1377).
2. To protect your data, format your hard drive; reset your computer to factory settings.
3. Carefully clean the exterior and interior. Let's face it; nobody wants to purchase a dirty, dust filled computer.
4. Take 15-20 high quality photos for the listing.
5. Create a comprehensive product listing to provide potential buyers with detailed information about the model, functionality, and overall condition of your MacBook Pro. This information must be 100% accurate, or you risk having your Mac returned.
6. Create a shipping profile to show customers how the item will be shipped, how quickly it will arrive, and how much they have to pay.
7. Set a return policy: when consumers online shop, they will inevitably check the return policy for an item prior to purchasing. If you do not accept returns or have a poor return policy, you may have a hard time selling your MacBook Pro for a good price.
8. Research, set a price, and list: The rules of supply and demand apply to eBay and Amazon as much as any other business. Finding the "sweet spot" price can sometimes be tricky. If you set the price too high, it may take longer to sell your Mac.
9. Many end users buying a used MacBook Pro may require additional customer service or ask some "how to" questions after receiving their Mac.
10. It's very important to learn and fully understand eBay policies. If you make a mistake and don't follow their protocol, you may be putting your transaction at risk.
- Craigslist: Craigslist will often provide the greatest profit but it takes longer than any other sales channel. In addition to preparing your Mac, taking photos, and creating a product listing, you have to physically meet the person you are selling to. You may get lucky and find someone who is 10-15 minutes away, but most of the time, it will be farther. If you don't make a sale with the first person you meet, the process starts over. Make sure the time you spend is worth it in the end.
- Trade-In Service: MacBook Pro trade-in services streamline and expedite the sales process for you. This significantly reduces the amount of time spent, which allows you to relax, spend time with family, or do something fun. Who doesn't want to have more fun? Simply select the type of MacBook Pro you want to sell, provide some basic information, and receive a free prepaid shipping label. This three-step process is simple and can be completed much faster than selling to an end user. There is no need to clean your Mac, and most trade-in services will format your hard drive to ensure all data is removed.
2. Security/Safety:
Every day, consumers are faced with a variety of scams and threats to their online safety. This is often the last thing you think about when considering how to sell your MacBook Pro. A MacBook Pro is a large investment and holds its value well. If a used Mac is well taken care of, the proceeds from its sale can considerably reduce the amount you will pay when purchasing a new Mac.
- Craigslist: This can be the riskiest place to sell your MacBook Pro. Since the launch of Craigslist, thousands of people have been robbed or scammed. Unfortunately, this is something that needs to be taken into consideration when attempting to sell a high value item. If you choose to use Craigslist, be sure to meet during the day in a public place. Don't accept checks, money orders, or other forms of non-cash payments.
- eBay/Amazon: Selling your Mac online will always pose a small risk. Platforms such as eBay or Amazon are susceptible to scammers who fraudulently purchase Macs or other devices. Once the item is shipped, the payment you received can be reversed. There are seller protections in place, however you must strictly adhere to seller requirements in order to qualify. If you make one mistake, the payment can be reversed and the scammer will have your Mac in their possession.
- Trade-In Service: Online MacBook Pro trade-in services are not without their pitfalls. There are fraudulent companies who have taken advantage of people selling their MacBook Pro. Making sure you perform your due diligence is key to your success. Choosing the right trade-in service will ensure the best outcome.
- Make sure to check the business is Better Business Bureau (BBB) accredited and in good standing. You can read details of any BBB complaints filed against a business.
- See how long they have been in business. If an offer seems too good to be true and the company has only been in business a few months, beware of a possible scam. Choose to work with established companies that are transparent and have proven their legitimacy.
- Perform a simple Google search of the company's name followed by "reviews" or "scam" (for example: Company review). Sift through the first page or two of results to see if anything comes up that raises a red flag.
3. Sale Price and Transaction Fees:
The first thing that comes to mind when researching how to sell your MacBook Pro is, "how much is my MacBook Pro worth?" One thing you may not consider is how much of your profit goes towards hidden fees when selling online. It may look like you are selling your Mac for significantly more, but in reality, a good chunk can be chewed up in fees.
- Craigslist: Part of the reason Craigslist can be the most profitable place to sell your MacBook Pro online is there are no transaction fees. Most transactions work on a strictly cash or trade basis. Just be sure to state "no trades" if you want cash.
- eBay/Amazon: These companies provide a platform for you to sell your Mac. In exchange, you pay them a fee after completing your sale. For example: selling a MacBook Pro on eBay for $500 may only end up netting you around $411 ($64 in selling fees and approximately $25 for packing/shipping. Factor in customer service after the sale and any additional time spent, and your profit continues to shrink.
- Trade-in service: These companies provide an upfront quote for your Mac based on the model, condition, and functionality. Although their prices may not be the highest of all options, it is traditionally the quickest and easiest way to sell a MacBook Pro. Most trade-in services will offer a "no fees" payment option. There are typically expedited payment options, but a small fee is charged.
Although a MacBook Pro trade-in service may offer a little less for your Mac upfront, the security and amount of time saved can make it the best place to sell Macs online. Take all these factors into consideration when deciding how to sell your MacBook Pro online.
