Global Investment Trends Survey 2015
The latest Schroders Global Investment Trends Survey paints a picture of increasing confidence and shows that income is at the top of investors' wish lists.
Contributes to
Unstructured Learning Time
Investors focusing on income
This year's Schroders Global Investment Trends Survey tracks the views of over 20,000 retail investors across 28 countries.
The survey reveals that income is investors' top priority, with 87% looking to invest in assets to generate income.
This is a trend that has been gathering momentum due to interest rates remaining low in many countries around the world.
In terms of their income goals, some investors are looking for income to reinvest and grow their portfolios while others are seeking to supplement salaries or to support their pension and retirement.
Globally, Asian and United Arab Emirates investors show the highest demand for income.
Investor confidence rising
The survey also highlights increased confidence amongst investors as the world economy continues to recover from the global financial crisis.
Half of those surveyed intend to increase the amount they invest, up from 43% in 2014.
This greater confidence is particularly evident in South Africa where 70% of investors plan to increase the amount they invest.
Meanwhile, 91% of global respondents are confident that they will see their investments grow over the next 12 months, with the average investor expecting a 12% return from their portfolio after achieving a 10% return in 2014.
In terms of where these returns will come from, investors expect Asia Pacific and North America to be the regions delivering the best returns in 2015.
Risk/reward disconnect could make it difficult to achieve desired returns
The average retail investor is looking to place only around 21% of their investment portfolio in high risk / high return assets (such as equities), with 45% of their funds going to low risk / low return assets (such as cash) and around a third (35%) being placed in medium risk assets (such as fixed income).
There is also a bias towards shorter-term investing with 46% of respondents preferring outcomes within one to two years.
At the same time, only 23% of global investors say they will seek professional advice to change their investment strategy, while more than a third intend to invest in the same way as in previous years.
This unwillingness to seek advice, combined with a preference for shorter-term and lower risk investments, could mean that achieving the desired 12% investment return may prove challenging.

Syria 1st-Hand: Regime "Gas Attacks" in Damascus (Le Monde)
Guerre chimique à Damas by lemondefr
A chemical attack on the Jobar front, on the outskirts of the Syrian capital, doesn't look like anything much at first. It's not spectacular. Above all, it's not detectable. And that's the aim: by the time the rebel fighters of the Free Syrian Army who have penetrated furthest into Damascus understand that they've been exposed to chemical products by government forces, it's too late. No matter which type of gas is used, it has already produced its effects, only a few hundred meters from residential areas of the Syrian capital.

USA Higher Education system
USA Higher education system offers many choices for international students to study in USA
USA Higher education system is typically divided into:
- Associate degrees
- Undergraduate (bachelor) degrees
- Graduate education (master's and PhDs/doctorates)
USA universities place great significance on diversity, meaning classes will consist of students of different ages, religions and countries of origin. This provides a stimulating and rich learning environment that encourages cross-cultural understanding and networking. Most classes will contain no more than 20 students and the professors will take the time to get to know students and their strengths and will usually be willing to spend time outside of class to offer further support.There is also a very active social life on USA campuses, with many clubs and organisations students can join to meet other students with similar interests and to help further career opportunities.

HP Leaps Across Finish Line With First Gesture-Enabled PC
By Richard Adhikari
However stellar its hardware, HP could still face the same problem bedeviling mobile device vendors: the availability of apps. "Gesture-based control is an interesting concept and there are interesting things you can do with it, but it has no value unless it has software," noted Bob O'Donnell, a program vice president at IDC. "The question is, are there enough apps that are compelling enough?"
HP on Thursday announced the first computer with integrated 3D motion-control technology from Leap Motion: the HP Envy 17 Leap Motion Special Edition.
Priced starting at US$1,050, the 17.3-inch device will be available for preorder in the United States starting Oct. 16.
It's "designed for people who are looking for a new notebook and interested in having the latest technology," Leap Motion CEO Michael Buckwald told TechNewsWorld. "Embedding into a notebook increases Leap Motion's portability."
The HP Envy 17 includes integrated Leap Motion technology.
Over time, "as the PC market continues to evolve and mature, niche opportunities come up," noted Bob O'Donnell, a program vice president at IDC. "This is clearly one."

The Specs
The Envy 17's basic configuration includes an Intel Core i7 CPU, 8 GB of RAM and a 1 TB 5,400 rpm hard drive. Upgrading to at least a 7,200 rpm hard drive is recommended.
The Envy 17 LMSE apparently also has room for two drives.
A full HD display is optional for the device, and HP offers an Nvidia graphics card as an upgrade.
Leap Motion created a new microsensor 3.5 mm high -- smaller than any 3D motion control technology on the market -- for the Envy 17. The Leap Motion controller is a black strip to the right of the touchpad.
The Envy 17 LMSE will be delivered preloaded with Leap Motion's Airspace Home app store and a bundle of selected apps.
It's the Apps, Stupid
Gestures aside, it's possible that HP will face the same problem bedeviling mobile device vendors: the availability of apps.
"Gesture-based control is an interesting concept and there are interesting things you can do with it, but it has no value unless it has software," IDC's O'Donnell told TechNewsWorld. "The question is, are there enough apps that are compelling enough for people to say, 'this is what I want'"?
Leap Motion offers many apps designed for everyday use and more are being added every week, the company's Buckwald stated.
A quick check of Leap Motion's app store showed several categories including creative tools, education, music and entertainment, productivity and utilities, and news and weather. There are separate apps for Macs and Windows PCs.
Apps are free or for-pay, with at least one app -- Geco MIDI -- priced at $10.
About 10,000 developers are claimed to be working on creating apps that leverage Leap Motion's technology.
Separately, Highland Capital Partners has established a $25 million investment fund called the Leap Fund focusing on entrepreneurs who use Leap Motion technology to develop breakthrough experiences, ranging from apps to embedding the technology into other hardware or software to unique businesses.
None but The Brave
The HP Envy 17 LMSE "is never going to be a huge seller, but it's an interesting statement, and there are people who will be interested in it, IDC's O'Donnell said.
It's possible that HP launched the device to burnish its image.
"There are people within HP who are looking to be more aggressive, and the people driving this product thought it was an interesting opportunity," O'Donnell suggested. "HP has gotten a little old and fuddy-duddy, and this was an opportunity for these guys to make a statement."
'Later This Year'
With the launch of the Envy 17, HP has beaten out Asus, which signed up with Leap Motion in January -- three months earlier than HP did.
Given that Asus is typically quick off the mark with new products, its tardiness in bringing out devices incorporating Leap Motion's technology is surprising.
"Our partnership with Asus is for bundling," Leap Motion's Buckwald pointed out. "They'll be bundling Leap Motion Controllers with high-end notebooks and premium All-in-One PCs later this year."

Personal Statements, Resumes, and Letters of Recommendation / Abusive relationship off limits?« on: May 14, 2012, 06:45:49 PM »
I just graduated from UC Berkeley. I'm going to be applying to law school in the Fall and am trying to come up with a topic for my personal statement. When I was a freshman in college, I was in a physically and emotionally abusive relationship that lasted for a year and a half. After that time, I did a lot of volunteering at elementary schools in Berkeley and Oakland. I met several young girls whose fathers were abusive towards both them and their mothers. This has influenced my decision to go to law school, as I want to help victims of domestic abuse, particularly those victims who cannot afford attorneys. But I don't know if it's ok to talk about this in my personal statement. If I were to discuss it, I would most certainly not portray myself as a victim. Rather, I would say that my experiences have given me a unique perspective on life, and have further incentivized me to apply to law school. Still, I'm afraid of coming across as a victim. Any thoughts?

If Local optimisation is executed professionally, those who are searching for "SEO agency near me" would be able to see your business first and at the top of search results. With the increase of smartphones and Google local SEO updates, these search queries are becoming more relevant and important for businesses to optimise.

Local SEO will increase your website ranking in Google for keywords which will bring in more customers and sales. Local SEO has many other advantages:
Local SEO helps your business become more trusting: It is easy to pay for keywords using AdWords and be shown on the first page of Google, however this can be very costly as it is pay per click advertising. It is also known that more people click on non-paid websites when searching for services or products. Having your website displayed naturally from local SEO builds more trust with your local customers and raises your business profile. Having the correct listing information, maps, address details and reviews are other ways in which local SEO can help your business name.
Local SEO can boost conversions: Potential customers who search for localised keywords are more likely to click on a website that is local to their location and proceed to contact the local company compared to a bigger brand chain store.
With the most basic of SEO for local businesses being conducted, a business can expect to receive a large number of visitors or direct calls from mobile users. In fact, major search engines prioritise and structure local business listings to be displayed to mobile users first and with the addition of Facebook Nearby, Google has recently announced that mobile searches now outnumber desktop searches.

When optimising local businesses, having citations, social media platforms, online directories, Google+ page and having your website optimised for local SEO are all required for local marketing. Customer reviews from Trustpilot or Yelp encourage potential visitors to your call action.

A woman has been sexually assaulted and robbed and her son beaten unconscious during a home invasion on the NSW north coast.
Police said a 23-year-old man was punched in the face when he opened the door of his Yamba home about 5.30am (AEDT) on Saturday, before two men pushed their way inside and demanded money.
He was hit again and knocked unconscious by the men, who then sexually assaulted his 46-year-old mother.
The two men then stole a small amount of money and a mobile phone before fleeing in the victims' car, which was later found burnt-out at the Yamba mission.
Both the mother and her son were taken to hospital.
Police are appealing for public assistance and are looking for two men described as being of Aboriginal appearance, with one around 183cm tall with a muscular build and black fuzzy hair.
Anyone with information is asked to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.

Eadweard Muybridge, Zoopraxographer is a brilliant, innovative film about the origins of cinema and its most famed forefather, Muybridge. Filmmaker and Cal Arts professor Thom Andersen, over the course of ten years, animated Muybridge's photographic studies of human and animal gesture and movement.
Interpolated with these incredible sequences are biographical sections detailing Muybridge's personal and professional struggles, narrated by Dean Stockwell. The result is a film that investigates the history of cinema while it traces its development from pre-cinematic technologies.
Drawing parallels between Muybridge's reclusive lifestyle and genius and the explosive, very public birth of cinema, Eadweard Muybridge manages to be both a film about history and a genuine work of art.

Study: University System Economic Impact Rises to $4.4 Billion
Posted on 11/15/2012

Media Relations
North Dakota University System

Study: University System Economic Impact Rises to $4.4 Billion
BISMARCK, N.D. - The economic impact of the North Dakota University System and its students on the state has risen dramatically over the past 12 years and now stands at an estimated $4.4 billion for Fiscal Year 2011, compared to $3.7 billion in FY 2009, according to the recent Economic Impact of the North Dakota University System report.
This is a result of $1.6 billion in student spending and NDUS expenditures, coupled with secondary economic impacts. The system employed more than 11,000 workers, educated about 48,000 headcount students, and the expenditures supported more than 11,000 secondary jobs.
"Higher education serves North Dakota as a key economic driver that meets the workforce, research, innovation and intellectual needs of the State and its people," said Duaine Espegard, president of the North Dakota State Board of Higher Education. "Those needs are going to increase as the state's economy blossoms. This report validates the strategic connection between a strong university system and a strong economy. It's essential that we make wise investments in higher education so that we can fulfill the needs of those who are creating the state's future."
Experts predict that North Dakota's population will increase 20 percent by the end of the decade. "About 70 percent of the 120,000 anticipated job openings in the state will require postsecondary education," said NDUS Chancellor H. A. Shirvani. "We have developed the Pathways to Student Success Plan, which will build on the strengths of our system to deliver higher-quality education to better-prepared students, thus ensuring higher graduation and retention rates. We also are re-engineering our system structure to provide greater oversight and accountability as well as more effective and efficient services. Investments in the system now will pay great dividends to the state as it grows."
Key measures of the economic impact of the North Dakota University System in FY 2011 include:
The FY 2011 report was conducted by North Dakota State University's Department of Agribusiness and Applied Economics and is similar to other studies done in 1999, 2004, 2008 and 2009. Report authors Dean A. Bangsund, Randall C. Coon and Nancy M. Hodur used the North Dakota Input-Output Model to estimate economic impact.
The authors concluded that the state's colleges and universities are able to leverage more than $2.30 from external sources for every dollar of state appropriated funds. Much of those non-appropriated funds come from outside sources and could be considered new money to the state.
"North Dakota is entering a new era, and it's imperative that we make good decisions about where we invest the proceeds of our prosperity," Espegard said. "With some strategic investments in our system, higher education's economic impact will grow exponentially as will its impact on the workforce of tomorrow and the state's future."

text: King Taharqa 322 Report post Posted February 14, 2012 Since I didnt make one last year (being his first year in Miami) and the other is too long to continue, this is my 2012 all things LeBron thread. I welcome all fans, haters, etc to contribute. LeBron James is putting up another MVP type season and has the Heat in place to contend again this year. He leads the team in minutes played, scoring, assists, rebounds, and FG percentage. LeBron is 2nd in the league in scoring, top 10 in shooting percentage, top 10 in assists, top 25 in rebounds, top 15 in steals. The Heat are currently the #2 seed in the East behind the Bulls. They are currently on a back to back to back road trip. Here's there results from last night... MILWAUKEE (AP)—LeBron James and the Miami Heat found a way over one of the oddest hurdles they've faced in an otherwise strong start to the season: They've finally beaten the Milwaukee Bucks. James scored 35 points on 16 for 21 shooting and the Heat used a third-quarter surge to beat the Bucks 114-96 on Monday night. Dwyane Wade scored 22 and Mario Chalmers added 13 for the Heat, who were 0-2 against the Bucks this season coming into the game. James scored 16 of his points in the third quarter as the Heat took control. "I know what happened the third quarter the last time we played here," James said. "We had a big lead and they just came out and jumped on us. It was good that we were able to come out and put some pressure on them." Bucks coach Scott Skiles wants to see his team improve defensively, but didn't necessarily blame James' big night on poor defending. "He can take and make difficult shots—and maybe they're not difficult for him," Skiles said. "They're difficult for most people. They're not difficult for him. He hit a couple of fadeaways in front of our bench, 18-, 19-foot fadeaways with a guy in his face, so you've got to give him those." http://sports.yahoo.com/nba/recap;_ylt=AmcoK0YJvj7X_cNIFPstz228vLYF?gid=2012021315 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Can I get a doctor?! I swear I witnessed the Blue Jackets with signs of life.

It's almost a week into the season and the Jackets turned me into a hermit. It's been six days since the home opener at Nationwide Arena and six days since the Blue Jackets looked like the team from the preseason and what we've all been hoping for. The great power play we were to have this year hasn't potted a goal yet; accredited to the overkill of an eight game suspension we are without the most important power play component, James Wisniewski. What has the goaltending aspired to be? Exactly what you expect, Mason is getting massacred with a lack of an aggressive defense. I don't even want to know the passing percentage. So let's break this down now and get this over with.

A pleasant get-together
Last Friday, I drove out to southwest Missouri where my sister Charlotte lives. My brother Dwight also arrived from south-central Kansas on Friday, after attending the Farm Show in Springfield, MO.
We had a nice weekend at Charlotte's house. This was the first time we'd all been together since the Sees reunion at Osage Beach, MO, which was six or seven years ago. (I've visited them and they've visited me, but separately.)
This morning, Dwight and I headed for our respective home when Charlotte left for work. I got back about 6 p.m. tonight.
I had no problems of any sort on the road, so I'm grateful for that. I took lots of pictures and I will post more of them later.
The sumac is red on the road banks and the soybeans are yellow in the fields, all across southern Missouri.
It was interesting to see cotton ready for harvest around Sikeston, MO. Now I can imagine why "Blues for Dixie" says, "...those old cotton fields were white in pale moon light..."
Most memorable thing I heard on the radio during the trip:
It was time for the "Are You Smarter Than Your Kids" segment on a morning show. The question was "Which state is known as the "Land of 10,000 Lakes?" The caller's answer was "India."
Here's a photo of me (left), my sister Charlotte, and my brother Dwight. This is for all who haven't seen us for a while. We thought you might be worried that we weren't getting older -- haha! We are now (left to right) 57, 52, and 62.

Intel CEO Paul Otellini's (pictured) retirement is throwing a monkey wrench into the company's outlook, at least as far as investors are concerned. This week UBS analyst Steven Eliscu cut his rating on Intel shares from "buy" to "neutral" and slashed his price target from $29 to $21.50, as reported by the Financial Post.
Last week, analysts at Citigroup and Goldman Sachs also lowered their target prices for Intel shares. Otellini recently said it's likely his successor will come from within the company, so we'll have to wait and see if that calms the apprehension on Wall Street about the chip maker's future.

Very Fond of Food by Sophie Dahl
If you're fond of English floral prints (the most charming ones, mind you), seasonal and simple recipes such as gooseberry yogurt and strawberry pancakes, and above all, of Miss Dahl's sunny looks and writing, then you'll be fond indeed of her newest book, a comfortable and moreishly colorful book of personal home cooking.
Quick Facts
• Who wrote it: Sophie Dahl
• Who published it: Ten Speed Press, reprint
• Number of recipes: About 100
• Recipes for right now: Strawberry Pancakes, Fennel Frittata, The Sheriff's Marinated Lamb, Earl Grey and Lavender Ice Cream.
• Other highlights: Sophie Dahl is a former model (yes, she's the granddaughter of that Roald Dahl) and a writer and cook. She has what I think of as a modern romantic approach to British food, casually interspersing inspiration from California (hot smoked salmon tacos!) with classics from her own childhood (tapioca with stewed apples and apricots). The book is arranged by seasons, with each one (Autumn, Winter, Spring, Summer) broken down into Breakfasts, Lunches, and Suppers. It's a very sensible way to arrange a cookbook, especially one like this, which feels genuinely like a meandering walk through the things Miss Dahl likes to eat.
• Who would enjoy this book? Anglophiles, design lovers with a penchant towards the casual British elegance of Sophie Dahl, and home cooks who enjoy personal narrative and personally-arranged recipes.

debt and there is no indication of an imradiate rise in prices whilst the south is well supplied with bread it hos no surplus then pork and bacon and lard have to be brought from the northwest so a fair survey of the field does not authorize the warmly ! tinted picture the protection paper above named gives of the condition of business affairs in the south with ; a short cotton crop and failures abounding we can see but little grounds now for prophesying a very hopeful winter outlook at any rate the people will have but little money for cash trading as they are in , debt for what they

for the crowd if the dogs of rutherford county could whip him in a fair fight this news created a sensation and that was a gala-day at blanton's for far and near from hill and dale they came with many a canine of high and low degree to the bear combat and to eat boar meat for christmas several i hundred men and women were pres ent on the muster ground at blanton's x roads where beer ginger cake and whisky were sold from the hind gate of wagons at the signal of a trumpet the huge black and brown bear was unchained the exultant crowd gave way for bru in's stately tread while sixty men held sixty dogs eager for the fight the bear with a growl surveyed the scene and trotted off fifty yards then the dogs with many yells made the woods ring and gave chase many bets were made that the bear would be slain and it was amusing to listen to each man tell about his dog's strength and bravery a huge grey hound caught the bear's hind leg whose lure paw as heavy as thor's ponderous hammer fell against the dog's head his tail was turned and the greyhound fiod in disgrace a dozen cms were soon put to flight by the bear standing erect on his hind legs one mountaineer who had imbibed the roughness of ben's knob by as sociation bragged on his pete and said i'll bet 5 by golly that pete can whip that bar and pete then hied to the combat the huge mas tiff pete soon seized the bar's tail but the bear

fatigue shouts of men mingled with the bark inn of dogs for an hour 1 he bear ready for battle mounted like one of scott's heroes on a knoll stood on his hind legs and seemed to say to the dogs like scott : nine one come all this rock shall fly from its firm buso us soon as i the other dogs soon gave up and left the bear the victor after one hour's persuasion and plenty of food the bear's wrath was appeased by his keeper and was led by his chain to his lair as the dogs were whipped the bear did not furnish the barbecue for that christmas crowd in 1826 mr roberts said on that day i first saw a double-barrel shotgun now so com mon and i then thought ah maitey he can shoot twice at one pop i'm afraid of him someof our aged read ers have not forgotten that bear fight and how they lost the barbecue be cause the dogs could not whip the bear the teacher to the front any man's work if it be done well enough becomes an easy leverage to move the world with it any body had predicted ten years ago that a north carolina teacher would have any groat influence outside his school room the politicians would have smiled and the people been in credulous yet already the profession of teach ing has been so magnified and the influence and labor of the teacher so broadened in the south and in no other state more than in north car olina that it has fallen to the lot of a teacher to formulate with more force aptness and propriety the con dition and necessities of our society than any other person has before ex plained them ; and he has explained tham before the largest audience in person and in print that a southern private citizen has addressed these twenty years maj robert bingham's address before the national convention of school superintendents at washing ton last spring and before the

but 1 heard nothing said by mr blaiue or any one else at the time of the pitts burg marriage which not even led me to suppose that there had been a previous marriage lie says that the pittsburg

the pittsburg marriage do you believe that he was mar ried in kentucky at all oh he must have been replied mr lemoyne laughing doesn't he say he was it makes me think of what the man said about the

GDP shows surprising increase in fourth quarter
Economic growth pleasantly surprised the market on Tuesday with an increase of 2.1%, which will afford Finance Minister Pravin Gordhan just a little bit more wiggling room when it comes to his Budget to be announced on Wednesday. However, analysts have warned tough times are still ahead.
Real gross domestic product (GDP) increased 2.1% in the fourth quarter of 2012, compared to growth of 1.2% in the third quarter, Statistics South Africa (Stats SA) reported on Tuesday.
- Read the full report here
This resulted in the economy recording only moderate growth of 2.5% in 2012 as a whole, down from 3.5% in 2011 – although this had been widely expected. The growth helped nominal GDP to reach an estimated R3-trillion for the year 2012 – R238-billion more than in 2011.
The largest contributions to the quarter-on-quarter growth were: the manufacturing industry; finance, real estate, business services and general government services.
Stats SA said growth was negatively affected by poor growth in the mining and quarrying industry reflected of negative 9.3% due to lower production in gold and other metal ores' mining, including platinum, as lag effects of wildcat strikes in the sector were felt as some such strikes continued well into the final quarter of the year.
Negative growth of 2.2% in the electricity, gas and water industry – due to lower consumption in electricity and water – also had an effect on GDP.
Strained industries
In a press release, Nedbank's economic unit said the growth had beat market expectations of around 1.6 % growth.
Investec said it was 1.7%.
While the firmer growth is a pleasant development, Nedbank warned 2013 would be much the same as real GDP is forecast to grow by a moderate 2.6% this year.
"The pace of economic activity remains modest and unbalanced," Nedbank said.
"Although domestic spending moderated, it continued to outpace production, despite improvements in agriculture and manufacturing output. This suggests that the underlying pressure on the current account and the rand is unlikely to ease in the near future."
Nedbank said it expected the strain on the mining and manufacturing sectors will probably continue.
"Producers and exporters face another difficult year as the recession in the eurozone is forecast to continue and local operating conditions are expected to remain challenging given high electricity costs, strained labour relations, fading productivity and inadequate economic infrastructure."
It said these constraints are expected to offset most of the benefits of a weaker rand.
Tight budgets
Investec's chief economist, Annabel Bishop, said the weakness of the economy in 2012 makes it unsurprising that jobs were shed and warned the government needed to make the right moves to encourage growth.
"Indeed, 2013 is not expected to see economic growth running above potential and clearly the Budget this week would not be the right time to raise taxes, particularly taxes impacting the corporate sector," Bishop said in a press release.
She also warned no more than budgeted should be spent on social services (already 57% of government expenditure) and civil servants wages, a major part of social services spend, but rather cut out wastage, inefficiency and corruption and improve service delivery.
Nedbank and Investec said the GDP figures, along with other factors, should still encourage the Reserve Bank to leave inflation rates unchanged.
