Online e-commerce behemoth Amazon (AMZN - Free Report) is heading toward $1-trillion market cap as its shares topped $2,000 for the first time. Shares of AMZN closed at $2,002.38 on Aug 29 and are just some dollars away from reaching 13-digit market capitalization. At $2,053 per share, Amazon will become the second U.S. trillion-dollar company after Apple (AAPL), which crossed the threshold on Aug 2 (read: Amazon Tops $900B on Record Prime Day Sales: ETFs to Tap).
Below, we have highlighted some solid reasons for the consistent surge:
Bullish Calls
Morgan Stanley (MS) this week lifted Amazon's price target from $1,850 per share to $2,500 per share, citing huge growth for the e-commerce giant's traditional retail as well as web service units. At $2,500 stock price, Amazon would have a market valuation of about $1.2 trillion. This represents the highest price target on the Wall Street. In fact, 31 of 47 analysts surveyed by FactSet have stock price targets above Amazon's $1 trillion market cap threshold of $2,050.27 (read: 5 Tech ETFs Leading the Surge This Week).
According to Baron Capital analyst Ashim Mehra, Amazon could double its value to about $2 trillion in three to five years driven by growth in advertising revenue and its cloud business.
Further, option traders bet Amazon will hit $1 trillion by next week.
Earnings Strength
Amazon shares was also boosted by its solid Q2 earnings, wherein it delivered massive earnings beat of 103.61% and the biggest quarterly profit of $2.5 billion in its history, powered by the fast-growing cloud computing business and strength in online sales.
Earnings per share came in at $5.07, more than double the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $2.49 and up by a wide margin the year-ago earnings of 40 cents. Revenues climbed 39% year over year to $52.9 billion but fell short of the estimate of $53.4 billion. In particular, revenues from the cloud computing business — Amazon Web Services (AWS) — surged 49% year over year to $6.1 billion (read: ETFs to Ride High on Amazon's Soaring Q2 Profit).
For the third quarter of 2018, the company expects revenues to grow 23-31% to $54-$57.5 billion.
Solid Fundamentals
Amazon has seen whopping earnings estimate revisions of $4.83 to $17.27 for this year over the past 60 days. This indicates substantial year-over-year growth of 279.6%. Revenues are expected to grow 32%.
Additionally, Amazon currently carries a Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy) and has a Growth Score of A. However, it belongs to the bottom-ranked Zacks industry (bottom 21%) (see: all the Technology ETFs here).
ETFs to Tap
Given this, investors seeking to tap the bullishness in the tech titan could consider the following ETFs that have AMZN as the top firm in their portfolio:
Consumer Discretionary Select Sector SPDR Fund (XLY - Free Report) — The fund carries a Zacks ETF Rank #2 (Buy), with a Medium risk outlook. Amazon accounts for 25.2% share (read: 5 ETFs to Buy as Consumer Confidence Surges to 18-Year High).
ProShares Online Retail ETF (ONLN - Free Report) - This fund debuted in the space on Jul 13 and has accumulated $15.9 million in its asset base. Amazon makes up for 24.2% in the fund's basket.
Vanguard Consumer Discretionary ETF (VCR) - This ETF has a Zacks ETF Rank #3 (Hold) with a Medium risk outlook. Amazon has 23.1% allocation.
iShares U.S. Consumer Services ETF (IYC - Free Report) — It carries a Zacks ETF Rank #2 with a Medium risk outlook. Here, AMZN takes 21.8% share.
VanEck Vectors Retail ETF (RTH - Free Report) — The fund has a Zacks ETF Rank #3 with a Medium risk outlook. Amazon makes up for 20.4% of the assets (read: ETFs Buoy on Booming Q2 Corporate Profits: 5 Best Charts).
Fidelity MSCI Consumer Discretionary Index ETF (FDIS - Free Report) – It has a Zacks ETF Rank #2 with a Medium risk outlook. Amazon makes up for 20.8% in the fund's basket
iShares Global Consumer Discretionary ETF (RXI - Free Report) - AMZN accounts for 16.3% share in the basket.
iShares Evolved U.S. Discretionary Spending ETF (IEDI - Free Report) - This fund debuted in the space on Mar 21 and has accumulated $5.7 million in its asset base. Amazon has 12.1% allocation.

I am a figurative artist, printmaker and illustrator taking inspiration from the stunning rural setting of the Cotswolds in the UK.
Growing up surrounded by the natural beauty of the Cotswolds; the people, animals and plants of my childhood delighted and fascinated me. I find certain creatures appearing many times in my work; hinting at a symbolism and narrative which lies deeper than the surface representation of the subject or form.
I take inspiration from the world around me and draw on emotions to arrive at the final composition, using colour and gestures to help convey what is in my mind.
I enjoy the act of painting, the fluidity and physical appearance of the paint. I work quickly to plot out an initial composition. Strong, energetic marks are often hidden beneath subsequent layers of paint in my oil paintings but remain more apparent on the surface of the works on paper. The physicality of the act of creating drypoints and mezzotints is also something I love and is a result of my life-long love of drawing. The anticipation and trepidation on peeling back the paper to see what the first new print is like is addictive and something I don't ever envisage will lose its appeal.

'PM Narendra Modi' Biopic to Release on May 24May 03, 2019 17:43
(Image source from: Zee News)
After recurrent postponing, the biopic on Prime Minister of India Narendra Modi starring Vivek Oberoi is all set to release on May 24 countrywide, the makers of the film announced Friday.
The film, titled PM Narendra Modi, was earlier set to release on April 11 but was banned by the Election Commission amid Lok Sabha elections.
In its order last month, the Election Commission had banned the screening of PM Narendra Modi during the poll period, saying any such film that subserves the purpose of any "political entity or individual should not be displayed in the electronic media."
The Election Commission order had come a day before the movie was to be released.
Producer Sandip Ssingh said he hopes PM Narendra Modi will have a smooth run in the theaters.
"As a responsible citizen, we respect the law of the country. After a lot of discussions and keeping the curiosity and excitement about the film in mind, we have decided to release the film immediately after the Lok Sabha election results," Singh said in a statement.
"We are now releasing our film on 24th May 2019. This is the first time a film will be promoted for only four days. I hope now nobody has any problem with the film and we are hoping for the smooth release this time," he added.
Directed by Omung Kumar, co-produced by Suresh Oberoi and Anand Pandit, PM Narendra Modi also features Boman Irani, Manoj Joshi, Prashant Narayanan, Zarina Wahab, Barkha Sengupta and Darshan Kumaar.

Ever since the 2013 horsemeat scandal revealed how a major breakdown in the traceability of a food supply could slip under the radar, food manufacturers have been under pressure to offer far greater traceability for their products and regulators have to ensure that rules are being properly followed.

Despite increasing automation across the industry, 2015 saw recalls in the food and drink industry rise by 78%.

It is untenable for the industry to continue to fail to meet regulatory compliances on such a large scale, yet it must be asked how such failings are occurring and what can be done on the part of both manufacturers and regulators to prevent this trend continuing into the future.

Costs of failure

The food industry is colossal and full of alternatives. This means that it is very easy for a consumer to switch brand if their original brand of choice becomes caught up in a safety scandal. As much as the monetary cost can reach staggering heights, the risk to a brand's reputation can also be huge as they become tied in consumers' memory to their failure to ensure consumer safety.

Any time a company has to issue a recall, they fulfil a duty of care but also lose tens of millions in profit and swathes of consumer trust. It is therefore important for company systems to develop and although regulatory rigour may at times be an inconvenience, compliance is not only necessary to continue business in the face of the law but also to ensure that a brand is not forever tied to falsehood.

Regional vice-president in the UK and Ireland for Epicor Software Andy Archer said: "Not surprisingly, retailers are now demanding that food businesses cover the costs of losses incurred on their profits, as well as the administration fees and marketing spend associated with a recall.

"On top of that, the business may face government fines, insurance claims and many other indirect and reputational costs, including lost sales, exclusion from future range reviews and the impact to the company's market value. In the first half of 2015 alone, insurance claims submitted by UK food manufacturers were worth almost a staggering forty million."

Manufacturer malfeasance

Aside from legal requirements, there is a certain expectation that companies worth millions and who employ thousands of people across the globe should be able to account for where their product comes from. This is particularly so when we take into account the technology proliferating in the business in the form of machine vision systems that are able to inspect more than 3,000 small products per minute, and optical character verification, which is used to ensure correct labelling on products.

As recently as this February, however, Morrisons was forced to pull its Ready to Eat Peppered Beef Slices from shelves after it was found to contain listeria monocytogenes, a species of pathogenic bacteria. The continuation of scandals such as these suggests that even with the technology available, at some point in the supply chain there is a failure to sufficiently test the product.

Speaking of how manufacturers could better ensure product safety in the face of recalls, CEO of Ozo Innovations Rowan Gardner said: "There are many reasons for product recalls, in part we can detect non-conformities and contaminants more quickly and at lower levels than in the past.

"Monitoring and training of staff are the best approaches to minimising risks in the manufacturing operations. Smart devices that monitor systems can provide real time data on operations allowing excellence to be measured and processes to improve."

Such monitoring systems are no doubt already in place and will continue to develop as time goes on. For now, it is possible to accept that the reason recalls seem more prominent on the manufacturers' side is due to a greater ability to catch failures that may previously have slipped through the cracks combined with the increased visibility today's media can place on such recalls.

It is vital to ensure that manufacturers are doing as much as possible on their end to fulfil their obligations. In particular, ensuring control at every stage of the process remains crucial for food safety. If standards are not maintained at every step, more recalls are likely to follow.

Regulatory rigour

Part of the issue faced in enforcing food standards is the divide between how much regulatory agencies such as the Food Standards Agency (FSA) can cover alone and the extent they are reliant on the manufacturers' themselves ensuring product safety. The FSA is seeking to update its regulatory model to be more adaptive but will seemingly forever have to contend with a certain amount of trust being placed in food businesses upholding their end.

An FSA spokesperson said: "Regulating our Future was launched in early 2016. We need to change the way food is regulated in England, Wales and Northern Ireland so that consumers can continue to trust the food they buy and eat.

"Business innovation has outstripped the way regulation has always been done and we need to keep pace with this new world to stop people being put at risk. We want businesses to take proper responsibility for food safety and local authority resources to be properly used."

The threat is the reliance on businesses to do their part. While legal requirements are in place, and recalls and scandals have an obvious negative effect on a brand, there is an extent to which businesses may prioritise financial saving over guaranteed safety. Going forward, it is crucial that regulatory bodies are able to rely on those businesses fulfilling their duty as a foremost priority.

However, the FSA spokesperson added: "There is no indication of an increase in traceability issues nor is there evidence of stricter regulation driving the numbers of notifications that the FSA receives. The increase may be due to improved reporting from key stakeholders."

Defense Contract Audit Agency
Manufacturers that work with the Department of Defense (DoD) have a particular set of rules to follow when managing the project and when preparing financial reports. Contracted projects are audited by the Defense Contract Audit Agency (DCAA) that is looking for the method and justification for cost accounting.
They may evaluate project management activities, job costing and cost accounting, as well as direct and indirect rates, to make sure businesses aren't taking advantage of the government. Control the projects and prepare the accurate reports needed by the DoD and DCAA by deploying the right ERP solution.
DCAA has high standards
The DCAA has high standards, which are necessary for protecting the government's money and projects. Basic spreadsheets and simple reports will not just slide in under the radar, they will be picked apart from the top to the bottom. If you can't follow the rules, you would likely lose the opportunity to work with the DoD on future projects. Prepare your business for a DCAA audit by replacing inadequate technology with a modern enterprise resource planning (ERP) solution. The right ERP solution will be good for your business, but also support the strict rules that come with working with the government, including the following:
- Scope of work: Outline the scope of work for the government contract that includes a detailed breakdown of all activities. Each step or project phase can be defined, as well as each job or activity performed in each phase.
- Estimate direct and indirect costs: Define the direct costs, which may include labor and materials, and connect them with the activities performed in the scope of work. Allocate indirect costs based on your desired accumulation method and offer details based on specific operations. You can manage multiple budgets, in real-time, within a robust ERP solution and respond faster to deviations in order to control spending.
- Control billing: ERP offers electronic signatures for approvals, built-in alerts and notifications, and other controls that protect spending and billing procedures. Integration between job costing, project management activities, and your general ledger can streamline billing.
As you prepare for DoD contracts, be sure to have the right technology in place. Contact N'Ware Technologies for more information about the ERP that offers a solid DCAA platform and compliance support.

not met with his invincible proof. His essay, however, is worth" reading; it contains much that is suited to correct prevalent absurdities, and to stimulate the reflections of the scientific and intelligent musician.
Of Mr. Molleson's poetry we are willing to give the most faTo'urable sample that we, can select. The following passage from "The Sweets of Society, or Recollections, in Verse, of the Happy Scenes of Infancy and Youth" interested us much, not by the grace or felicity with which it is expressed, but by the romantic feeling which it awakened, when we found that Border-war-, fare, the game'of heroes, was still commemorated in a game of boys,—the descendants of those very barbarians whose insatiable lust of carnage and rapine during centuries hold the north of England, and the south of Scotland,in perpetual agony of alarm and apprehension ;—and our pleasure was exalted by the recollection, that of those bloody fends not a trace wow remains among the borderers, except in the sports of their chiK. dren, on the battle-fields of Percy and Douglas.

Art. XIII. Memoirs of the Rise and Progress of the Royal Navy. By Charles Derrick, Esq. of the Navy-Office, royal 4to. ^j. 3 OS.Pric* 1/. 1j. 1806.
"TPHE naval strength of Britain is a subject so dear and so familiar to all our countrymen, that it is almost superfluous to mention its importance. Whatever is valuable in political independence, in civil and religious liberty, in moral' character, in physical comfort and existence is inseparably associated with it; since, under Providence, it is the chief, if not the only barrier, against the ambition of our enemy, and the onlv protection of that vast commerce, which is now identified with the welfare of nearly all classes of Englishmen. Every attempt, therefore, to draw the public attention t* an object of such great national interest, as the support of the Royal Navy, must be received with great approbation.
The general design of the present work is to give "a distinct and brief account of its rise and advancement to the exalted pitch it has now attained." The author's "principal object has beeu to shew the state of the Navy as to the number, tonnage, &c. of the several classes of the ships and vessels at different periods; when the naval force was promoted,' neglected, or, at least, not augmented ; and at what periods, improvements in ship-building were introduced into it." His, plan is to furnish an account, from the most unquestionable sources, of the state of the navy, relative to these particulars, under every reign, from the time of Henry VII. The foundation of the Royal Navy was laid by Henry VIII. who constituted the Admiralty, and Navy Office, appointed regular salaries for Admirals, Vice-Admirals, Captains, and seamen. Ac this time, the sea-service became a distinct and regular profession. This monarch founded Deptford, Woolwich, and Portsmouth dock-yards. At the close of his reign, the whole tonnage of the navy did not exceed 12,455 tons. At the death of Edward VI. it was nearly in the same state, consisting of 53» vessels, of which only 28 were above 80 tons burthen. During the reign of Mary, the navy diminished, but revived under the auspices of Elizabeth. When the Spanish Armada arrived in the Channel in July 1583, there were in the English, fleet 34 ships belonging to her Majesty, burthen 12,590 tons, and. carrying 6£"9 men. It appears from the lists, that the largest; ships then carried from 55 to 68 guns. In the last 25 year? of Elizabeth, the Navy was doubled, and the annual expence of it amounted to 30,0001. At the death of James I. the navy had decreased about ten ships. Charles I. increased the siz£ of the ships, and added eight or ten to their number, which, at the beginning of the civil war, was 42. The author has not been able to give the state of the navy, at the death of thifr prince, but is of opinion that it was considerably reduced. Great exertions were made under the Commonwealth to restore the navy, which, at the close of the first war with the Dutch, consisted of 102 vessels of all descriptions. "Estimates for the support of the navy were at this time first laid? before Parliament, which assented to an annual" grant of 400,0001. for the expence of the Navy." At the death of th«( Protector in 1658, the total number of ships was 157, carryv ing 4,390 guns, and 21,910 men. Under Charles II. thirty, new ships of enlarged dimensions, were added to the navy, but in the short reign of his successor, it decreased six ships-.
From the Revolution to the present time, the. author hasgiven correct tables, aud abstracts," of tha state of the nary, at different periods, shewing the number of ships in commission';their dimensions, tonnage, number of men, guns, &c, and closing with the state of the navy, in October, 1805; when there were 698 vessels in commission.
A large appendix contains, in forty-one tables, abstracts relative to the dimensions of ships, price of building, value of stores, and sundry other particulars important to all who are connected, with the business of the Royal Dock-yards.
We consider the work as a valuable depository of facts, on subjects which relate to our maritime strength. To professional men it may prove peculiarly instructive and useful; and to members of the Legislature, it will afford, information, which may assist their judgement, on various topics connected with the prosperity of the navy. The volume is ornamented with a print of the Hemy Grace de J)ieu, the large ship built by Henry VIII; and is honoured with a very respectable list of subscribers, among whom we observe many of our first naval characters. ■ ■ •
Art. XIV. A Charge-to the Clergy at the Primary Visitation, in the Month of August, 1806, of the late Right Reverend Father in God, Samuel, by Divine Permission, Lord Bishop of St. Asaph, 4to. pp. 29. Price
"2s. Hatchard, 1806.
^THE charge before us appears to be the only one which the late R. R. Prelate ever delivered in the diocese of St. Asaph. It contains a variety of matter, some of which is chiefly interesting to the clergy who heard it; but a considerable part of the discourse-Will be read with satisfaction, by those who are pleased with good sense and liberality, and, especially, who wish to feel as much respect for the Bishop, as they have done for the Scholar. We shall pass hastily over the first part of the charge, remarking only that it complains, with a degree of »sperity, of some irregularities subsisting in the diocese of St. Asaph, and especially of the number of curates officiating without license. These are required to appear before the rural Dean, exhibiting their letters of orders, a testimonium of good behaviour signed by three Clergymen, and their nomination to the cure, for the purpose of making the declarations and subscriptions, and taking the oaths, required by law, and obtaining a licence from the Bishop ; on pain of being prosecuted in the episcopal court. After stating his determination' in some other points' between incumbents and curates, his lordship proceeds ta**iptice a curious circumstance, which is not generally known;—that while the Rubric directs the banns of matrimony to be published after the Nicene creed, the Marriage Act (26 Ge#, II. c. 53.) require* tiiem to be published irnniV diatcly after the second lesson. A marriage by banns according to the forms of the rubric, is therefore, as he supposes, invalid, under the law as it now stands, and marriages founded on such an illegal publication of the banns have actually been solemnized, as this charge informs us, very recently. Another irregularity arising from inattention to the Marriage Act is also pointed out; that is, the solemnization'of marriages in churches or chapels, erected since Lady Day 1T54, or in which previously to the passing of the Act, banns were not usually published. Such marriages are by that statute actually null and void, and the person officiating is guilty of felony and liable to transportation for 14 years.
Offence? of this kind had for a long time been unwittingly committed in a town in the diocese of St. David's, and also in Voelas, Denbigh ; to prevent unpleasant consequences there and elsewhere, in 1804 Bp. Horsley brought in a bill to render such marriages valid, as had been, or should be, so solemnized before Lady Day 1805; in cases occurring since that time, the regulations of the Marriage Act are still in force.
Having mentioned these circumstances to his clergy, chiefly to shew the impropriety of neglecting to obtain a competent knowledge of those laws in which they are peculiarly interested, the It. R. Prelate, makes some observations on the state of religion in his diocese, founded on the returns of the clergy to circular queries which he appears to have addressed to them individually. The manner in which some of these reports seem to have been constructed, discovers a lamentable deficiency of accurate information. He expresses his satisfaction at perceiving that the persons thus reported as schismatical, dissented from the church, not in doctrine, but in discipline ■ only. How this sentiment is equally applied to the Calvinistic and Arminian sects, will be seen from the following statement of his opinion on the Creed of the English Church, in which we gladly recognise the enlightened and temperate friend of orthodoxy, ■strenuous for the essentials of the Gospel, though candid on points of speculative difficulty.
'So far is it from the truth that the Church of England is decidedly Arminian, and hostile to Calvinism, that the truth is this; that upon the principal points in dispute between the Arminians and the Calvinists, upon all the pcints of doctrine characteristic of the two sects, the Church ot England maintains an absolute Neutrality. Her Articles explicitly assert nothing but what is believed both by Arminians and Calvinists. The Cal-' vinists indeed hold some opinions relative to the same points, which the Church of England has not gone the length of asserting in her Articles. But neither has she gone the length of explicitly contradicting those opinions; insomuch that there is nothing to hinder the Arminian and the highest Supralapsarian Calvinist from walking together in the Church of

Petrochemical makers across Asia hit by weak margins.
Petrotahlil :Asian petrochemical makers, who are unable to pass down sky-high feedstock costs, are resorting to run cuts or extending cracker shutdown periods to tie through the bad times.
The gloom was evident across South Korea, Asia's top naphtha importer, as well as Southeast Asia as crude-derived naphtha premiums were recently either setting new records or were near record levels because of a supply crunch following drone attacks on Saudi oilfields in mid September and heavy refinery maintenance.
Buyers are even more concerned now given mounting tensions between the United States and Iran after U.S. air strikes killed the commander of Iran's elite Quds Force and an Iraqi militia chief. Crude prices have spiked after the attack.
"The market is so volatile. Who knows what Iran would do? It's sad for petrochemicals as demand for the product is bad but feedstock costs are high," said a naphtha buyer.
Typically, naphtha prices should be $250 to $300 a tonne below ethylene prices.
But at present, the difference is not even at $100, said the buyer.
In South Korea, top petrochemical maker LG Chem said it will lower its overall average cracker run rates to 95% from full capacity this month.
LG Chem owns two crackers that have a combined capacity of about 2.4 million tonnes per year (tpy).
KPIC, the country's smallest cracker operator with a 800,000 tpy unit, will operate its cracker at around 90%, down from 100%, until the end of this month.
Similarly, cracker throughput at Malaysia-based Titan, owned by South Korea's Lotte Chemical, and Singapore PCS is also down to 90% from full capacity.
These two companies have a combined cracker capacity of 2.4 million tpy.
In the Philippines, JG Summit Olefins has delayed the restart of its 320,000 tpy cracker to the third week of January from December following maintenance and expansion works which will raise the capacity to 480,000 tpy, industry sources said.
At least three cracker operators in Japan, Asia's second largest naphtha importer, have cut runs but this could not be confirmed as participants were away on year end holidays.
The last time when naphtha crackers had to cut runs to combat weak margins was in 2008 during the financial crisis.

iOS 5 Release Date Confirmed to Be October 12th
Apple has confirmed that its latest and greatest piece of mobile software, iOS 5, will start rolling out to current iDevice users, of certain varieties, on October 12th. That's right, we finally have a concrete release date for iOS 5, months after Apple announced the software at WWDC 2011.
(Read: 5 Things to do Before You Upgrade to iOS 5)
Best of all, the software is going to be a free upgrade, but it will only be hitting certain phones.
Now, as expected, there are some phones left out here, chief among them, iPhones that came out prior to the release of Apple's iPhone 3GS. So, if you're still the proud owner of an iPhone 3G or iPhone 2G, you will not be able to get this update.
The good news is that if you own an iPhone 3GS, you will see iOS 5 arrive on October 12th along with those who own an iPhone 4, iPad 2, iPad, iPad touch 3rd generation and iPod touch 4th generation.
iOS 5 is going to be launching with a host of new features including something Apple is calling 'Cards', which the company just announced today.
55 Comments
Oct 12th, will the new iPhone be available from the 12th instead of the 14th Oct? Id think they would want iOS5 on the new handset instead of offering as an upgrade
Oct 12th, will the new iPhone be available from the 12th instead of the 14th Oct? Id think they would want iOS5 on the new handset instead of offering as an upgrade
Hello! Should I buy the Ipad 2 after the upgrade (october 12) or do you think I can buy this week and do the upgrade myself?
You can do the update on your own… itunes will download it for you with the next release. I'm actually willing to do the upgrade and lose my JB because of this. Though I will miss the free tethering of my phone when I'm at work with my laptop.
hey how come when i download the new itunes, it still says i have software 4.2 instead of 5.0 and ive downloaded it like twice. does it have something to do with the fact that i have windows? and whats the difference between 64 bit and 32 bit?
You can buy your iPad now. You will easily be able to upgrade the product yourself.
You should buy it after so u don't have to do the upgrade
I would bet all iPad 2's sitting there for sale won't get pulled back in for updates- they'll probably expect new owners to log on and do it themselves…..just my guess.
what would be the the difference? iOS 5 will be free with or without the iPad 2 and iPhone 4s.
Yes it will be on the 12th of Oct.
all iphone 4s is already coming with ios 5.

i hav an iphone 4 version 4.2.1…. should i update software to get ios 5 or not??
Ummm…..you should definitely get the update. Aside from being more secure, its more awesome.
Yah u should
Depends. You can get the newest version before iOS5 is released if you don't like the looks of iOS5. Personally I don't like the idea of the new notifications and some of the other new features, but I will be getting it for siri & the new camera features.
Siri isn't going to be released in the iOS 5 update. It's only for the 4s
My bad, I'm actually getting the 4s. Forgot to mention that.
But there's gonna be a lot more new features for iOS5 so it's up to you if you want the new stuff.

To start with, pension managers and other schools of thought have observed that pension systems in Africa are limited to small segment of its population in formal employment. This means that many workers in the informal sectors are not covered under traditional contributory pension schemes. Hence, they don't enjoy pension benefits when they grow old. Their inability to contribute to pension schemes has been attributed to the peculiar nature of the informal sector.
In a discussion paper titled 'Extending Pension Coverage to the Informal Sector in Africa' as published in July 2019, the World Bank believes there is a need for countries on the continent to consider unique characteristics of the informal sector workers so they can adopt different solutions to cover them under pensions. Thus, some workers of the informal sector have the potential to contribute to pensions even though their incomes are not sufficient to qualify them for membership under the traditional contributory pension systems.
To achieve substantial coverage of the informal sector in pensions contributions, the World Bank identifies three (3) main principles which African countries need to consider. These include (1) administrative costs need to be minimised through reliance on technology; (2) leveraging stakeholders, such as informal sector associations, Microfinance Institutions (MFIs) – any institutional structure relied on in managing the scheme should have the capacity to identify informal sector workers who are able to save; and (3) the savings of informal sector workers should be professionally managed to optimise returns and to minimise asset management costs. It is believed that these principles will help build trust and encourage people to contribute under an efficient voluntary pension scheme.
The discussion paper also suggests that pension product-design and the institutional structure need to reflect characteristics of the informal sector to improve their chance of success. For instance, the informal sector lacks clear employer-employee relationships. Hence, policymakers must consider such peculiar characteristics when designing pension schemes for the sector.
Voluntary Scheme
Before making the case for a voluntary scheme, the World Bank makes some observations. It is not realistic to mandate that a pension scheme be implemented in the informal sector due to low-income levels. It states:" While some informal sector workers may have sufficient incomes to defer consumption and save for old age, others face competing demands on their incomes today – such as buying food, paying for children's education, caring for family members, housing, health care costs, and so on. So, even if a scheme is designed as mandatory, some informal sector workers may not be able to contribute when those pressing and frequent demands arise. Some may not have sufficient savings to fall back on in the case of unexpected events which impact incomes.
"The second consideration relates to the challenges involved in implementing a mandatory scheme efficiently. Because informal sector workers are typically spread widely around a country, including in rural areas – experience shows that obliging the entire informal sector to contribute to a pension scheme does not produce any relevant impact. This is especially so because of the typical gaps in national identification systems, and the absence of robust know your customer (KYC) procedures to verify the identities of individuals."
In advocating for a voluntary scheme, the World Bank points out that: "Reaching scale in a voluntary pension scheme without subsidies and other incentives may be a challenge. If countries have the financial resources to subsidise a voluntary pension scheme, they can use systems established through social safety net programmes to identify and target the poor who would benefit from subsidies to help save for old age.
"Social registries are increasingly used to support the implementation of safety-net systems in Africa. If countries have robust targetting mechanisms supported by social registries, these systems can be used to identify low-income individuals who would then receive subsidies. As in the case of matching contributions, the affordability and sustainability of these subsidies to support participation in the voluntary pension scheme would need to be taken into consideration."
A short-term savings account would make the pension scheme more attractive to informal sector workers when scheme managers allow occasional short-term access to the savings. This incentive, it is believed, will help build trust in the scheme. "Second, the pension scheme could be made more attractive to informal sector workers by allowing them to use the short-term savings account as collateral for various financial transactions, including obtaining credit from MFIs (Microfinance Institutions) – thereby making it easier for them to access financing. Third, the short-term savings accounts could be used by informal sector workers following what has been described as 'idiosyncratic or covariate shocks'."
Institutional Design
What's more, the World Bank also posits that a robust institutional design is key to the success of a pension scheme in the informal sector. In this regard, the design should at least aim to (1) be innovative in providing incentives for people to participate and pay contributions, including subsidies, if this is affordable; (2) provide flexibility in the payment of contributions that will depend on the amounts and regularity of incomes among the participants; (3) use innovative technology to facilitate the payment of contributions; and (4) build up the confidence of contributors that they will receive their pensions when they reach the age of eligibility.
An institutional design should include the following elements: (1) a contribution collection mechanism; (2) a record-keeping infrastructure; (3) procedures for the investment of contributions; and (4) a Treasury unit.
Informal Contributions in Ghana
Since the introduction of an Informal Sector Social Security Scheme (ISSSS) over a decade ago in Ghana, authorities have made efforts at improving coverage. Based on that, the Social Security and National Insurance Trust (SSNIT) in April 2019 made public its aggressive plans to develop and distribute pension products through such mechanisms or channels to over 13 million informal sector workers by the end of 2020. The Trust plans to use public education (awareness), NIA (National Identification Authority) integration, Payments through Mobile Money (MoMo), SSNIT App, Ghana Revenue Authority (GRA) and Registrar General Department (RGD) integration.
How the Trust overcomes such foreseeable implementation challenges will determine the extent to which it can achieve the target it has set for itself. Indeed, some of the strategies being adopted in Ghana identify themselves with those enumerated by the Word Bank in the discussion paper. Nonetheless, some pointers contained in the paper are worth considering by the Trust to streamline its operations for better results.

The Family: review and trailer
ROBERT De Niro produces possibly his most dispiriting comic performance yet in The Family, a horribly unfunny and tonally misjudged black comedy that trades off memories of his finest gangster roles, notably in Goodfellas which is referenced here for one dismal sequence.
The idea is sound enough: a New York family live in France under the witness protection programme after De Niro's mobster snitched on his colleagues.
The execution barely raises a smile, however.
It's horribly violent, the family are appalling, it's never believable and far too long.

Made from beaten eggs, fried and folded around a filling that could include just about anything yummy from cheese and vegetables to cold hams and cooked meat, the Italian omelet gets its Mediterranean zest from its local aromatic herb ingredients, fresh cheeses, and savory sauces that transform it from the ubiquitous omelet to a savory pizza in breakfast form.
Thatâs the traditional omelet in Italian style, but the Italians also have their own version, the Frittata. An egg-based dish, quite like the quiche, a frittata is open-faced, never folded like an omelet, and can be eaten both hot and carried away cold to a picnic. For a delicious brunch, try an easy Italian omelet with sauce recipe, and the equally easy frittata recipe for either a hot or cold serving. Both recipes serve two, and come with an easy cooking level.
Name of the dish: Italian omelette
Preparation time: 10 minutes
Cooking time: 30 minutes
Ingredients for the Omelet:
4 eggs
1 cup fresh mushrooms, sliced
1 cup zucchini, sliced
3 tablespoons butter
1/4 cup mozzarella cheese, shredded
Salt and pepper to taste
Ingredients for the sauce:
1 tablespoon butter
1 medium tomato, chopped
2 tablespoons fresh parsley, minced
1 garlic clove, finely chopped
1/2 teaspoon dried basil
Salt to taste
Directions to make:
1. Add two tablespoons of butter to a large non-stick frying pan on medium heat. Saute the mushrooms and zucchini in the frying pan till tender. Remove and keep warm.
2. Add the remaining butter to the same frying pan, and melt the butter on low heat.
3. In a small bowl, beat the eggs, along with a few tablespoons on water, salt and pepper.
4. Add the whisked mixture of eggs to the frying pan in a smooth layer.
5. When the eggs have set in a layer, spoon the mushrooms, zucchini and mozzarella cheese over one half of the layer, and fold the other half over the filling. Remove from heat.
Preparing the sauce:
1. Melt the butter in a small saucepan over medium heat.
2. Add the tomatoes, parsley, clove, basil, and salt to the saucepan, and simmer for about five minutes till done.

Tip Jar
You must live a considerable life before attempting to do your own version of this song.
I wanted to put MY stamp on it...hence, it's titled MY Love Supreme.
I hope many will enjoy it and think about love in a new way - no ownership, pure freely given love.
I got this idea from watching the interaction between my grandson and his new kitten. I'm teaching my grandson to let the kitten love him in a freely, non-demanding manner.
IF there is a creator, it's love can not be like our self-centered kind...it must be freely given and nothing expected in return - no demand of obedience and worship.
Most religions can't handle this level of love as it give people the power of self-determination.
John Coltrane's original track made a big impact on me. Then, when McLaughlin and Santana did their variation in '73, I was hooked on this piece.
I've wanted to do my own variation for some time, but, I needed a collaborator who was just right. That's Mark Sloniker on keys, and we've made music together for many years and are on the same wavelength now.
A love supreme
Can only mean
A love so free
Takes over me
A Love supreme comes over me

CGCC offers course in happiness
June 21, 2017
Throughout the ages spiritual teachers and philosophers have pondered the human desire to cultivate happiness. Ancient wisdom traditions offered contemplative practices to enhance compassion, gratitude, and other virtues that have stood the test of time. What's been driving an enduring inquiry into enhancing the state of the human mind? Today, evolutionary psychology informs us that modern humans inherited a nervous system from our Stone Age ancestors that predisposes us to over-focus on the bad, exaggerate threats, and be easily susceptible to anxiety, self-doubt, and judgement of ourselves and others. The good news is that recent advances in neuroscience reveal that with simple pr...

Jakarta: President-elect Joko 'Jokowi' Widodo has pocketed the names and criteria for ministers in the upcoming cabinet.
"I have pocketed the names. I have prepared the blueprint," Jokowi said here on Friday.
"Some ministers may return. Let's see how it goes," Jokowi added.
The former Jakarta governor ensured the upcoming cabinet will consist of politicans and professionals. He asked his ruling coalition to propose young politicians or professionals.
"If political parties cannot find young politicians, we will find young professionals," Jokowi remarked.
"We can do it ourselves. We have many young professionals," Jokowi noted.
Indonesia held a simultaneous general and presidential elections on April 17. Voters elected the president, vice president as well as members of national and local legislative bodies on the same day.
The General Elections Commission (KPU) concluded the vote recapitulation process at the national level on May 21. The agency named the incumbent candidate and his running mate Ma'ruf Amin as the winners of the 2019 presidential race.
The Contistutional Court (MK) announced its ruling on presidential election dispute on June 27. MK judges rejected Prabowo Subianto-Sandidaga Uno presidential pair's legal challenge in its entirety.
According to KPU, Jokowi bagged 85,607,362 votes or 55.5 percent of the votes. On the other hand, Prabowo collected 68,650,239 votes or 45.5 percent of the votes.
In order to run for president, Jokowi was endorsed by PDIP, Golkar Party, PKB, NasDem Party, PPP, Hanura Party, PSI, PKPI and PBB. In the meantime, Prabowo was supported by Gerindra Party, Democratic Party, PKS, PAN and Berkarya Party.

How might I override the value of the Greek letter PI within various builtin language functions in the Wolfram language? Specifically and without having to reinvent the wheel or code equivalent functions from complete scratch, I wish to replace with more useful and even perhaps more accurate values the well-worn and overworked value of 3.14159... that is used in various Fourrier transforms and other, sundry functions.
Why you might ask. Why not would then be my reply. Working with the same figures as other historic peoples knew might cast off some of the ignorance from our contemporary perspectives and fragmented understandings. Oh, and then there is the spectacular and infamous contender and rival to proper entitlement as these number-letter things go: 3.1446055.
I might draft a workbook to illustrate the importance to musicology and music of being able to use divergent values of PI. Yet in truth, many fields of research and study, industry, and even contemporary culture use PI in innumerable calculations ever day. All stand to potentially gain from alternate PI values.

Acknowledging that there is never a 'one-size-fits-all' strategy for investment, Tanya Debakhapouve explains how different investment approaches better lend themselves to different client circumstances.
Asset allocation decisions, including strategic, tactical and dynamic asset allocation, are the key driver of investment returns. Once the desired exposures to asset classes are established, the next level of decision making involves implementation of these exposures into the investor's portfolio. At both levels, the investment manager is guided by the investor's investment objectives and goals, their risk tolerance, cost preference and time horizon, because the ultimate goal is to develop an investment approach that addresses the investor's needs.
The asset exposure implementation choices range from applying an indexed investment approach (which involves managing a set of funds to mimic a market index), an enhanced indexed approach (which combines elements of indexed and active management), factor-based strategies, and a fully active approach. The latter can be delivered using a single manager or funds that include more than one active manager.
Each individual asset class has its own unique characteristics (market dynamics, structural factors and cyclical considerations), which are more conducive to certain investment approaches and styles than to others. Therefore, investments within each asset class need to be based on a clear investment strategy, which views these charactristics through the lens of the investor's investment objectives and preferences to develop an approach that is best suited to their needs – that is unless the asset class is implemented using a indexed or an enhanced indexed approach.
What are factor-based strategies?
Factor-based strategies are generally used when the portfolio requires a certain investment style (such as buying 'cheap' stocks) to achieve its goal. The strategies will invest in a large number of stocks that possess the required characteristics, and typically incorporate a set of portfolio construction rules to 'manage out' any unintended exposures. The attraction is that they can be designed to suit an individual investor's needs and, if well constructed, can offer a pattern of performance that is consistent with an actively managed fund but that is also more cost effective.
When active management makes sense
Active management is suited to asset classes where markets are inefficient and active managers have proven to be able to add value.
As the finance theory goes, market inefficiencies can create opportunities for skilled active managers to generate returns in excess of the benchmark.
Here, an investor needs be cognisant of the fact certain types of active strategies and styles will be successful to a different degree depending on the prevailing market conditions. For example, in markets that are subjected to substantial macro shocks, being good solely at stock selection may not be good enough.
Thematic awareness, macro awareness and understanding the risk appetite dynamics would all be key to success under such conditions. Some markets call for a more concentrated approach whereas some are more suited to broad diversification. Finally, some markets may consistently work in favour of certain style characteristics.
The role of the investment manager is to understand each individual asset class and its driving forces, as well as the nature of its underlying inefficiencies, and to create a favourable, yet diversified, mix of different managers/approaches that are well positioned, by design, to capitalise on the opportunities and to minimise any unrewarded risk.
Further to this last point, mandates of active managers need to be structured in such a way as to grant them high levels of latitude in those areas where their expertiese is high; and limit their ability to make large bets in those areas where they have no strong capability. For example, many stock pickers have suffered through the Global Financial Crisis because they failed to incorporate considerations such as currency and sector exposures within their investment decision making frameworks.
Factor-based solutions can be a useful 'plug-in' to balance out a portfolio's style mix, to deliver a certain type of 'beta' or to manage costs at the portfolio level. These can also be used to facilitate style rotation strategies although style timing is inherently risky and the requisite skill is rarely found amongst investors.
For those investors who use mainly strategic asset allocation
Diversified portfolios that have been built for investors with a long-time horizon, and that use predominantly strategic asset allocation, all else held equal, are generally suited to active management at the asset class level. This is because actively managed strategies need to be given sufficient time to deliver their expected outcomes. For these portfolios, performance will be driven by a combination of the long-term strategic asset allocation and also by the investment strategy, manager selection and portfolio construction decisions within asset classes.
When an indexed or enhanced indexed approach makes sense
In markets that are largely efficient
The more efficient the market, the more difficult it is for an active manager to earn returns in excess of the benchmark and the more suited these markets are to indexed and enhanced indexed strategies.
In portfolios that are particularly active in their asset allocation
If the investor has a shorter time horizon and/or is more active in managing their allocation across asset classes, they may choose to limit their use of active management within asset classes. A portfolio that incorporates a dynamic asset allocation (DAA) overlay on top of its strategic asset allocation is an example of such an approach.
Broadly speaking, the greater the reliance on dynamic asset allocation, the more sense it makes to use indexed or enhanced indexed approaches at the asset class level. Using active management to implement asset class exposures within a DAA-intensive investment framework may 'interfere' with the purity of implementing that asset allocation view. As an additional consideration, the cost of trading active strategies to implement a DAA view may be higher than costs associated with using other strategies for this purpose.
To conclude, not all investors will make decisions based on the trade-off between risk and return. Many investors will require portfolios that help them achieve a certain goal whether that's providing capital growth, delivering an income stream, preserving capital, or some other goal. This type of investor may consider incorporating factor-based solutions that are designed to deliver a particular outcome, expressed as a metric like dividend yield, quality or high earnings growth.

Table of ContentsFix 1 – Start With Data Execution Prevention WindowsFix 2- Turn Off DEP Via Command PromptFinal Word
We are going to discuss the Windows Data Execution Prevention feature and how to disable it. But before proceeding ahead, do you know what is Data Execution Prevention on Windows 10?
Well, Data Execution Prevention is a Windows 10 in-built feature that prevents virus attacks or other security threats.
DEP also helps the computer system stay protected by identifying programs to make sure that they are using memory safely.
Moreover, DEP uses a set of hardware and software combinations to check on Windows computer memory to halt malicious codes from executing.
But we are sure one question must be buzzing in your mind!
When DEP helps computers stay away from malicious attacks then what is the need of disabling it?
Truth be told, Yes, DEP secures your computer from viruses and security threats, and determines the program to use the memory securely. But, if you are thinking, it will prevent harmful software or programs to get installed in your system than you are wrong.
Well, Data Execution Prevention (DEP) can be considered as a blessing and curse both.
If DEP in Windows does its job perfectly without interfering with the programs, it's a high-five from us.
But when it starts popping up, closes the 32-bit programs or stops CyberStorm video game, then things become complicated.
Hence, here we explain how to resolve this issue by disabling DEP.

- Now, click on Settings and go to the Data Execution Prevention tab. Search for the option that reads, Turn On DEP for all programs and services except those I select:
- Here, add the desired programs, you want DEP to interfere with.
- Click Apply > OK to save changes.
Fix 2- Turn Off DEP Via Command Prompt
- Type Command Prompt in the search box. Right-click on it and select Run as an administrator to perform all the actions.
- In CMD window enter exe /set {current} nx AlwaysOff. Hit enter.
- Restart your computer. This will disable DEP feature permanently.
Above we explained possible methods to help turn off Data Execution Prevention on Windows 10.
But as you know, Windows Data Execution Prevention tool will not protect your computer system fully. Therefore, we would like to suggest using Advanced System Optimizer.

This tool performs the below list of actions on your system.
- Protects Your System from Attacks

- Game Optimization
These are a few of the features the list goes on. To know about all the feature you will need to download the product.
