- Acision supports customers through evolving mobile messaging ecosystem, creating service value with expertise in Deployment, Support and Professional Services
- Acision deploys first virtualised MMSC, leading the way in future service delivery
As the global leader in mobile messaging and experts in deploying messaging solutions to customers for over 20 years, Acision today announced the launch of its new Global Services Portfolio. Designed in line with the changing dynamics of the mobile messaging and service delivery landscape, Acision's new Global Services Portfolio focuses on 'Value Creation', providing products and services to support its customers throughout the entire messaging lifecycle - from early design phases through to end-of-life management and migration towards next generation technology. With a new structure developed across its Deployment, Professional Services and Support teams, Acision provides its customers with a range of services for todays, tomorrows and future networks.
"Over the past few years the dynamics of the mobile messaging ecosystem have changed radically, with a profusion of new IP, over-the-top (OTT) and social network messaging services penetrating the industry and taking both mind and market share. With researchers forecasting that global mobile messaging revenues could grow to $195.9 billion by 2016, messaging traffic from the expanse of services are likely to double over the next three years," said Rob Bellis, EVP Global Services, Acision. "Remaining relevant in today's fast-paced, services-orientated world is a challenge for all players, and to survive means to carve out a unique role, which means delivering services and solutions which are a step ahead of the rest, can efficiently and effectively be deployed, maintained and managed, and can be successfully monetised by gaining insights into performance and traffic flows. Because of our enduring legacy in messaging, Acision has now developed a solid portfolio of services to help our customers do just that - bring services to market faster and get full value from them."
Acision's Global Services portfolio across Deployment, Support and Professional Services are very much tailored to create value and better utilise Acision platforms deployed at the customer network or in the cloud. Acision's approach ensures it can deliver best in class services at lower costs and with maximum return for the customer, while also supporting them through the transition from in-network based services to IP and cloud delivery models. For all stages of the lifecycle, Acision offers competitive value-based services, modular service packages and premium Professional Services delivered by Acision's Global Services experts.
"With a team of comprehensive experts covering all areas of messaging technology and understanding the end-to-end customer lifecycle, Acision takes care of its customers' needs and enables them to focus on their core business. With our new Global Services Portfolio we can help our customers achieve service stability, availability, operational efficiency, service continuity, service packaging as well the fast delivery of new services. Success is based on providing invaluable services and Acision helps our customers achieve this," continued Bellis.
A recent example of Acision's outstanding capability is the deployment, management and maintenance of the first software-only MMS infrastructure in a live network. This not only increased cost savings and faster return on investment (ROI) for the customer involved but reduced hardware investment, deployment time and rack space, while ensuring the high quality of experience expected by end users. Acision's virtualised MMSC is leading multimedia messaging market delivery by enabling automatic provisioning for first-time users, applying media adaptation to match the retrieving phone's capabilities, and providing proven MMSC interoperability in order to deliver messages to other operator networks.
"The success of this deployment is a testament to our Global Services team and the stability of our MMSC platform, which is the most advanced in the market. As part of this changeover to virtualised, software-only platforms, we are witnessing exciting progress in driving the next phase of messaging delivery and we are well equipped to help our customers in this transition. I am proud to be part of this first for Acision and a first globally," Bellis concluded.

When an enterprise builds a hybrid IaaS cloud connecting its data center to one or more public clouds, security is often a major topic along with the other challenges involved. Security is closely intertwined with the networking choices made for the hybrid cloud. Traditional networking approaches for building a hybrid cloud try to kludge together the enterprise infrastructure with the public cloud. Consequently this approach requires risky, deep "surgery" including changes to firewalls, subnets...

Some developers believe that monitoring is a function of the operations team. Some operations teams firmly believe that monitoring the systems they maintain is sufficient to run the business successfully. Most of them are wrong. The complexity of today's applications have gone far and beyond the capabilities of "traditional" system-level monitoring tools and approaches and requires much broader knowledge of business and applications as a whole.

I don't know if the problem is with fromyouflowers or their vendors. In either case, the florists are not adequately vetted. I placed an order (almost $200) at 11:00am on Saturday, for a Saturday delivery in Monticello FL - paid extra for the service - and the flowers were never delevered. According to the site, I placed the order with hours to spare. I was only notified after the recipient let me know they never showed. These flowers were for a funeral for a lady who didn't have enough money to have flowers at her husband's service. It took several phone calls but it wasn't until the next day that it was discovered that the florist accepted the order and then later rejected it. The problem stems from a lack of communication between fromyouflowers.com and the florist. fromyouflowers singlehandedly made a difficult situation even worse. Never again.

Two businesses and VAT - again
I recently saw a potential new client, husband and wife - operating as a driving school business.
Essentially the husband is the qualified instructor and the wife plays no part in the running of the business - other than "administratively". The business is divided in two and run by two limited companies, the shareholder and director of each being individually the husband and wife. Both companies thus come within the VAT registration threshold and consequently are not VAT registered.
I advised the husband and wife that, in my view, the two companies in fact operated as one business (in fact their website bears no mention of the two separate companies) and that both should be VAT registered. They were extremely concerned at this and stated that they had only ever formed the companies on advice given by their current (chartered) accountant as the business grew - essentially to legitimately avoid VAT registartion. I advised that they should obtain written clarification of the position from the current accountant as, I felt, it seemed an obvious instance of VAT evasion.
Subsequently I have been forwarded by the husband a letter he has received from the current accountant. In that he confirms his advice as correct in that as there are two companies involved, each with separate director, shareholders, bank accounts etc, HM Revenue & Customs would definitely not regard them as one business - and therefore not registrable.
As a consequence of the "definitive" advice now received from the (chartered) accountant the husband and wife have decided to stay with him rather than move to us - on the basis that he cannot be wrong........
My query I suppose is really to ascertain if I am correct in advising as I did (and as a consequence lost a client to a potentially negligent competitor) and, if I am, do I have any reporting obligations under the money laundering regulations?

I think my DS is teething. Just turned 4 months today, but he's been showing signs for a few weeks, but I'm just noticing them here recently. The constant slobbering. Constantly doing a chewing motion on his hands. Plus he's always got his hands in his mouth. And he's been giving me trouble about going to sleep at night and he's usually pretty good about going to sleep.
Any 4 month olds teething yet?!

Teething is very possible, though that behavior is normal without it. The hands in the mouth can be because he is now aware of his tongue and hands, drooling is because it has disease preventing proteins, which will protect his toys, which he can grab and take interest in now. And the fighting sleep is because of more awareness of surroundings, which he doesn't want to miss, so he fights the sleep he feels coming on. My baby does all these things, and I believe he is teething. Mostly because he fusses at random times and stops when I rub his gums. He also likes to bite down on my finger, very hard.

News in Brief
Colo. Middle School Questioned on Safety Following Shootings
As a Colorado math teacher was being hailed a hero last week for tackling a man who shot and wounded two middle school students in a school parking lot, there was growing evidence the school missed a chance to head off the attack.
David Benke, 57, tackled Bruco Strong Eagle Westwood, an unemployed ranch hand who allegedly showed up at Deer Creek Middle School and started firing at students. Officials said the quick response was proof that the Jefferson County, Colo., community had learned the lessons of Columbine High School, located about three miles away, in quickly responding to the shootings.
Investigators said Mr. Eastwood walked through the doors of the school in Littleton earlier in the day, indicated he was a former student, and chatted with teachers.
Asked about the possible security lapse, Cindy Stevenson, the superintendent of the Jefferson County schools, said only that there is a sign-in sheet that requires visitors to state their name and the purpose of their visit.
Mr. Eastwood was jailed pending $1 million bail on suspicion of attempted murder. The students were recovering.

L Street cycle track about half done
While most Washingtonians prepared for Hurricane Sandy, DDOT crews were hard at work over the weekend installing the L Street cycle track.
The cycle track will run from New Hampshire Avenue in the west to 12th Street in the east. Workers began marking it on Thursday near New Hampshire Avenue, and have been moving east block by block. As of Sunday they reached just past 17th Street.

On Sunday, DDOT's "green lane flash mob" was out, painting a high-visibility green coating where the cycle track approaches Connecticut Avenue.
When Sandy is safely past and DDOT begins to work again, share your photos with us via Twitter and on the Greater and Lesser Washington Flickr pool.

Is that right? is that a turn lane?
If its a parking lane that seems like a big mistake with the flexible bollards that were put up to make bicyclists safer.
However, same problem. Honestly that part is too crowded -- or they should have taken out the parking. One lane is not enough for that area. the Rosslyn-Dupont circulator is going to be very difficutl to use.
If they're still parking there a week from now, then we'll have a problem.

In testimony submitted to the Senate Subcommittee on Superfund and Hazardous Waste, the Consumer Electronics Association (CEA) called for a national framework for electronic waste management. The testimony came as the subcommittee convened to discuss the issue of e-waste disposal and recycling.
"E-waste is a national issue that should have a national solution. The current de facto system for e-waste [management] is an evolving patchwork of state-by-state approaches...[which] imposes unnecessary burdens on technology companies and consumers alike," wrote CEA in its testimony.
Furthermore, CEA said, idle electronics "should not be completely discarded" as they contain valuable resalable materials and "used, working computers can find use in thousands of schools, charities and public agencies" in underserved communities. CEA also suggested federal policy initiatives that could aid in confronting the national e-waste challenge such as, tax credits available to all stakeholders involved in the end-of-life infrastructure; environmentally sensitive procurement guidelines that create a sales-based incentive for manufacturers to design eco-friendly display devices; the creation of a third-party organization to collect and administer funds in states considering a point-of-sale advanced recovery fee; and measures that enable states to ensure a level, competitive playing field for in-state retailers with Internet sales and out-of-state retailers.
CEA emphasized that finding a solution to the public policy challenge of e-waste is a priority for the organization and hopes to work with Congress and all interested parties to reach a common-sense, national solution that makes recycling as convenient as possible for all Americans, recognizes the economic and marketplace reality facing consumer electronics manufacturers and protects innovation.

Game accessory maker Nyko just sent out word that thy're working on a battery extender accessory for the new Wii U GamePad controller. The extender will add more juice to the GamePad by providing a larger battery. The new battery will double the play-time of the original GamePad battery.
The GamePad has been well-received among gamers, but one complaint has been the battery life. Heavy usage of the controller drains the battery in just 2 hours according to some reports, while it's officially rated at 3-4 hours of play time. Of course, you can just plug it in and play while it charges.
Nyko's new GamePad battery accessory is dubbed "U Boost", and is already listed on Amazon in the UK for £20, which translates to about $32. What's your take on the GamePad battery? Do you find it annoying to have to charge after nearly every game session? Let us know in the comments section.
Don't forget to join our Wii U Forums for a more in-depth discussion of all things Wii U!

Breeding cave problem
How do I fix the breeding cave glitch. I checked it wasn't the nursery. My flower and earth dragon have been stuck in the breeding cave for over a year. So I had to buy the epic breeding island.
Answer from: Neada
I've had mine 'stick' a couple times. I powered off the device & when I returned they've always 'unstuck'. Once I even got credit for all the time passed between breeding & unsticking.
Answer from: explorer
If you change the time. It might or will affect your breeding cave.

I returned the blender because an "old" used jar was provided in what appeared to be a new box. I also asked for and received my Sam's membership payment back. I will not purchase from Sam's again.
Eppie | Wed, 22 Oct, 2014
This is an amazing machine. This was a gift for my son and family. Have used Blendec blender for more than a year now and absolutely love it.

Tip: Learn the requirements for trauma activation
APCs Insider, August 6, 2010
Want to receive articles like this one in your inbox? Subscribe to APCs Insider!
Several conditions must apply before CMS will pay the trauma activation fee. First, the trauma center must be designated or licensed by a state or local government authority or must be verified by the American College of Surgeons (ACS).
ACS verification is designed to assist hospitals in the evaluation and improvement of trauma care. It also helps provide information about the trauma system's capacity to function, its performance, and its trauma system development. Verified trauma centers must meet criteria described in ACS' "Resources for Optimal Care of the Injured Patient."
Second, trauma team activation or notification of key hospital personnel must occur based on receipt of triage information. Without this pre-hospital notification, you may not bill for trauma activation.
Third, the hospital must bill for critical care services. Report CPT codes 99291 (critical care, evaluation and management of the critically ill or critically injured patient, at least 30 minutes, for the first 30–74 minutes) and 99292 (for each additional 30 minutes) when appropriate.
This tip is adapted from "Effectively and accurately report trauma activation with critical care in the ED" in the August issue of Briefings on APCs.

Ed Wright wins silver at Finn class World Championship a month after success in Europeans
Stuart Alexander
Stuart Alexander is Sailing Correspondent for The Independent.
Saturday 31 August 2013
Silver in the Europeans last month has been followed by
silver at the Finn class world championship for Ed Wright in Tallinn,
Estonia, the venue which Britain
boycotted for when it staged 1980 Olympic Games sailing.
Runaway winner of the Finn Gold Cup was the 21-year old Brazilian, Jorge Zarif, who won the junior title just six weeks ago in Italy.
Britain has won the Gold Cup eight times in the last 11, with Wright himself taking it in 2010, Giles Scott in 2011 and Ben Ainslie in 2012.
Ainslie is in San Francisco with the Oracle team for the America's Cup and has said he will not mount another Olympic campaign in the heavy singlehander.
Giles Scott is with the Prada-backed Italian challenger Luna Rossa recently beaten on the Louis Vuitton Cup elimination final, but still tuning up with Emirates Team New Zealand challenger to the defender, Oracle.
For Wright the win silver, which he also won in 2010 particularly satisfying as the regatta was held in light airs. He sees it as a confidence booster because the 2016 venue in Rio de Janeiro is notorious for light winds. "I'm mainly known for my strengths in the strong winds," he said. "I've lost weight and trimmed down a lot of my equipment to be more competitive in the light winds, which we expect more of in Rio."
He will also face competition from Andrew Mills, who was in strong contention until the last two days, and the return of Giles Scott.
In San Francisco, the five-member international jury is expected to announce on Monday the results of two investigation into both gross misconduct by the Oracle team in modifying the 45-foot versions of the wing-powered catamarans for the America's Cup World Series, and an associated charge of bringing the America's Cup into disrepute.
It will also announce any sanctions.

text: Taoist dirty talk "flat" / chopper high prices multiply deprived of the right of young China should or should not, will not be a "dwelling" Dirty Taoist 2009-12-2 TV series "dwelling" hot topic. Main difference between the actual allocation of housing greatly dissatisfied. However, we see that a few years ago most of the mainstream media and mainstream scholars have to tell you: China's per capita housing is also small, there is substantial room for improvement. Many of the title is "the average American house 60 square meters, 16 square meters of housing per capita in China." CITIC Bank in particular and other research institutions, said that China's per capita living space is too small. Wang said China's per capita housing area of 16-20 square meters. If China is indeed very low per capita housing, there is no rare phenomenon goes back. If real per capita housing area is already high, a lot of people goes back a bit strange. High or low per capita housing area, only with the world the same living space per capita income countries, compared with the United States can not be compared. That is, to what extent the per capita GDP, what is the appropriate level of housing area. The following is according to Chinese statistics published on the website of the World Bank, calculated according to the different purchasing power parity income countries (the former) the per capita income (in), and the Ministry of Construction data show that countries of different income levels per capita housing area (after): Low-income countries: 1149 international dollars; 8 square meters the following Middle-income countries: 4911 international dollars; 17.6 square meters Middle-income countries: 5952 international dollars; 20.1 square meters In high-income countries: 11 868 international dollars; 29.13 square meters High-income countries: 36 100 international dollars: 46.6 square meters The same table, the Chinese calculated by purchasing power parity per capita income was 5,370 yuan, roughly equivalent to low-income and middle-income countries 44/66 position. If converted per capita housing, should be about 18.7 square meters. That is, if China is now home to 18.7 square meters per capita, China is in the normal state at this stage the level of per capita housing. Per capita income and per capita the relationship between housing, not to say that the same level of per capita income, like high, low, very bad. This relationship is "usually look like this country." Significantly high or low, will describe some problems in economic life. China's per capita housing situation in the end how? Do not have to guess, only to see National Bureau of Statistics Web site, which is the China Statistical Yearbook data to know. Because only this data is the data recognized in national legislation, but also the most rigorous statistical and historical continuity of the strongest data. The subjective purpose of the other statistics are strong, lack of trust. Yearbook 2008, said China's urban residents in 2006, per capita housing area of 27.1 square meters in 2007, rural per capita housing area of 31.5 square meters (empty, 2007 data). Accordingly, we can calculate the end of 2009, China's per capita living area. In 2004 China's per capita living space increased from 20.8 in 2001 to 25.0, an average annual increase of 1.4 square meters. Began to slow in 2005 to an average annual increase of 1.05 square meters in 2006 to 27.1 square meters. 07,08 Clearly no more than two years, 2007, approximately 1 square meter, that is the end of 2008 reached 29.1 square meters. Sharp increase in real estate sales in 2009, is expected to end sales double in 2008, that can reach 31 square meters or so. In recent years, expansion of rural residential housing area of the basic rate of between 0.8 to 1 square meter. 2008 and 2009 increased by 1.7 square meters is the normal end of the year reached 33.2 square meters. China's urbanization rate is about 45%, integrated housing area per capita in China has reached 32.2 square meters. If so, China's per capita housing area has been unusually higher than normal at this stage the national level. Can also say 72% higher than normal. Some people say that Western housing with the "living space", so is the "use of the area," the Chinese "housing area" that is "building area." This is nonsense. West to buy a house is bought by construction area, who statistics to measure the indoor area? National statistical offices? No such statistics, the West can only be used to count the living area floor space. Some Chinese per capita housing area in order to go down that area of China's urban living room area divided by urban household population is not counted by the resident population. This is even more telling. If there are not statistics of urban living and the people, then he must be in another caliber statistics, and where rural housing. Children in rural areas than urban per capita housing area, so this will not reduce the number of 32.2 square meters. Low per-capita housing area that people are basically developers care. Developed an average of 46.6 square meters of living space living, largely because the United States to raise the 60 square meters per capita. Most countries in Europe between 35-40 square meters, the Japanese only 31 square meters. Therefore, some 46.6 square meters figure does not conform to reality, it is appropriate on the 38-40 square meters. If the 40 square meters by the developed countries, per capita living space in accordance with China now, China's per capita income should reach 18 524 international dollars, 3.2 times the level now. Therefore, that China is now more than a house, according to very good. China's housing area that is not enough, there was no basis. Demand is the desire of the capacity to pay, highly correlated with per capita income levels. China's per capita housing area is already very high, there should be no dwelling. Is not a TV show makes up it? Calculations to know. Distribution of household consumption in China accounted for 35% of GDP, urban and rural savings rate of about 20%. Down conversion, income accounts for about 42% of GDP. That is, if the per capita GDP was 10,000 yuan, 20,000 yuan per capita income of a particular group, this group is equivalent to GDP per capita 20,000 / 0.42 = 47,618 yuan. In 2007 the highest income of Chinese urban residents per capita income of 20% of population 30,000. Down conversion, the equivalent of these people GDP74000 yuan per capita. In 2007, China's per capita GDP19000 yuan, according to 5370 international dollars indicators, conversion rate was 350/100. In so doing, with 1.2 million people in urban per capita income reached 21,142 international dollars, close to the level of high-income countries 35,100 yuan. Groups of these people are mainly government officials, employers groups, teachers, doctors, journalists in the black, gray income groups, therefore, less statistical sample survey of black and gray income. Wang Xiaolu real income for the National Bureau of Investigation Investigation Team, the city is about 1.5 times the figures. Therefore, real per capita GDP income of these people can be the equivalent of 53,000 international dollars. Far exceeding the average level of developed countries. Otherwise, how could China build so many houses out, house prices also mentioned how much to buy it? This 120 million people per capita housing of 60 square meters or more are normal. In 2007, China's urban income of 5% of the lowest income groups in 3358 yuan, equivalent to the group GDP2258 international dollars per capita, Bisahala-Saharan African countries with high per capita 1870 international dollars is only 20% if the dwelling they had, is not surprised. ---- I love the motherland wode If it were not stepped on the tail of the planned economy (1981), I would not enjoy the benefits now living room (housing reform), the accumulation of money in three years, and today even the price down enough. --------- Chopper: high prices deprived of the right generation of Chinese proliferation of - A Xinhua News Agency, "Liao Wang" magazine reporter asked Reporter: How will the recent price trend? Chopper: from the current situation, the line has been idle the city's housing prices, some economists believe is stagflation. I think it is idling more appropriate in terms of market characteristics, volume and price rise from the amount of reduction process of rising values, trading volume has declined significantly while the prices are still rising, the process is over, will step into volume and price Let down, housing prices began to enter the adjustment. Adjustments have not yet entered, saying it was inappropriate to stagflation. House prices are actually rising. Second and third tier cities housing prices going crazy. This is a big problem the Chinese economy to the main characterization. Tier huge volume, strong market flexibility, for example, the high cost of business was to move into, young people feel that life is too much pressure to the second and third tier cities to seek development. This situation indicates that China's industrialization is not yet complete, urbanization is facing recession. And by the second and third tier cities in many companies and individuals to basically no way out, with a mandatory requirement that housing prices are too high, ordinary people overwhelmed if it is to the outbreak of social crisis, and even affect the normal proliferation of the Chinese nation . So, if you do not recycle liquidity, do not start to take measures, I am afraid to intensify social contradictions. The recent situation, the second and third tier cities, the Government has as much, a lot of house prices pushed up land prices in the contrast, therefore, house prices and first-tier cities is presented in the first half of the same volume and price go. This situation will be extended to the central bank until the recovery of mobility. ? Reporter: skyrocketing housing prices push the cause? What specifically? Chopper: the main factor promoting the skyrocketing housing prices first awash with liquidity. Size of new loans this year, commercial banks, up to 9 trillion, although no exact data reflected, but a lot of liquidity into the real economy, real estate, for speculation is widespread. Wen Jiabao in Shanghai, said, "to curb property speculation", regarded as a high-level position, but only position is not enough to make the relevant departments as soon as the relevant provisions should be strictly enforced. Followed the trend of devaluation of the yuan so that the people panic, they do not believe the RMB is also used as money, and some even think that the yuan would be like the Russian ruble the Yeltsin era, so start saving big move, the yuan have become the house, which we talk about the monetization of real estate. This house has lost most of the functions of living, and become a tool for financial speculation. Moreover, it is full speculation. Further develop, run disturbances may occur, people will come out of money to buy physical gold. The third and most important thing the government attempt to save real estate, urban residents completely broke the illusion of price adjustment is expected to make them a profound understanding of China's property market is not a market but a tool for the government making money, house prices in the Government contrast is not possible to adjust according to market rules, only go higher, buy as early as late buying. Fourth, China has no property tax, the property did not hold much more cost, resulting in a large number of wealthy sectors of hoarding a large house. Residential vacancy rate in China has long been more than the international warning line, residential vacancy rates in Japan in 1989 more than 5% in 2008, the U.S. housing vacancy rate of more than 3% to the outbreak of the economic crisis. Japan is the housing bubble burst, the Japanese lost 20 years. United States subprime crisis, shrink 50 trillion dollars in assets worldwide. The residential vacancy rate in China has exceeded 15%, the bubble burst is not blocked. ? Reporter: You also had the housing bubble will eventually burst of speech, when it will burst? After the pros and cons to the people who brought what? Chopper: China's housing bubble burst, is the deep contradictions of China's economic structure, the total outbreak. Our system, to control the outbreak of social conflicts, but can not control the housing bubble burst. Rates depend on when the bubble will burst when the central bank to recover mobility. Mobility of the central bank does not recover, it will happen a lot of the RMB to buy foreign exchange and commodities asset situation, worsening domestic inflation, currency devaluation serious, not just the monetary system collapsed, the entire macro will also reinvent the wheel. Therefore, the central bank will be forced to recover mobility. First, a recovery of liquidity the central bank will raise the stock market crash. Looking at the situation from Japan, the Japanese government promulgated the "land finance ordering" within two years the housing bubble burst. Bank of China should be within two years after recovery of mobility housing bubble burst. This is a broken path. There is a bubble path is a problem bank assets, such as Dubai emerged as sovereign debt default situation after the housing bubble burst. China's banking system is a high degree of risk of aggregation, the last two years of local government debt more than 30 years of bad debts the original case, and the situation continues to deteriorate, all in bank loans. Next year, but also a large number of printing money in order to maintain the new infrastructure projects launched. The right way this time should be wasted quickly cease postponed a number of great works full surplus, recuperate, pacify. However, local governments do not want to stop the interest from their overdraft of China's future, squeezing people's blood and sweat, can not advance to the day when the housing bubble will burst. This time will not exceed three years. ? Reporter: The young man is not fresh, "eating the old" buy a house phenomenon, which is one of the reasons house prices are too high, how do you view this phenomenon? Chopper: High prices have threatened the normal proliferation of the Chinese nation, the number of people without shelter, is not married, is married and do not kid. Recently, a renters can not afford housing friends asked me to give their daughter a name. I named their daughter: An example. To say is our time, we must first ensure that the homes of ordinary people. This problem resolved, economic prosperity is only a joke. Month after their daughter, I was in Beijing, specifically to see them and understand their living conditions. I think they look great, the couple rent accounted for 30% of income, college graduates in Beijing, work hard, even if the pressure is bigger, does not affect having children ah. I think they have the pressure of life in the face of this era, wrote a capital of the people, the Chinese people. Young people of our time, even if future generations are not breeding, it is crime against the Chinese nation! By the way, a data, in 2004, the Chinese population of 2,500 million primary school students, there are 890,000 primary schools, now, new students population of less than 10 million primary and secondary schools decreased to 380,000. High prices are the future of a nation overdraft is over, so what is the point of economic growth? Young people, young people, eating is not the fault of the old, nor is it one of the reasons house prices are too high, but our system of residential development and supply of a problem, forcing people to ancestors in three generations of the wealth accumulation of the house. More shameful complicity of local corrupt officials and profiteers, are still hoarding speculation driving up prices. Young people who are willing to bite the old? No way means always eating. The aging of China will be ahead of the arrival of these eating the old family, the future will face protection for the elderly. ? Q: How do "cooperative housing" this means? Number of feasibility? Chopper: I have launched a co-operative building in Shenzhen, the people are highly enthusiastic and into the very high degree of participation, but also I trust, I do not have any legal agreement in the case of each of the funds of thousands into my designated bank account. However, we encounter is that trick shot hung in the land, we and the developers of inequality, not one level and could not get the land. Therefore, no government-led, cooperative housing is difficult to succeed, it is impossible to lead the local government cooperative housing and, therefore, cooperative housing is ideal for our society, operating on a very large degree of difficulty. To make cooperative housing, the primary problem is the people's ownership of residential land, back to the people. ? Reporter: the problem of high prices eventually how to solve? Chopper: pessimistic to say that Chinese society has lost the opportunity to address high prices, that is, the accumulation of high prices has been unable to resolve social conflicts. Led to lower prices is the government can, and very simple introduction of property tax, two sets of four into a down payment mortgages, increasing the supply of ordinary residential housing prices down easily. So, an obvious problem is that many spend most of the price bought a house in how to do? As long as property tax, to curb property speculation, at least line the city's housing prices drop 50%. I figured I had four in Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, Shenzhen city, eating the old year, and other methods used to borrow money to buy a house in the average family up to nearly 70 million, their assets will shrink 50%, a large number of white-collar families into bankruptcy. Local governments and developers to sin, so that ordinary people to bear, it is unreasonable. So, while local revenue property tax levy huge, however, is likely to burst the housing bubble, weigh the pros and cons between the Government difficult trade-offs. Do not solve the problem of high prices, the problem we face is a national recession, the economy can not recover more than ten years, of course, there are more people who can not afford a house into a living, have resulted in social injustice of inequality , the polarization intensified. Lost fair and equal society will lead to retrogression. Therefore, the high prices of the final solution, but the housing bubble burst, and is passive burst. As to what way, depending on the choice of history. Mr Cao to sell before the end of housing, agricultural reserve / chopper off crisis ? Lu Lin-yuan our currency is called the people, do you want to be slaves? ? Lu Qi Yuan investment strategy under hyperinflation / three major networks / GEM & silly money ----------- Shishu Si: "flat" off her white panties contemporary city These days, wherever you go, no matter what, they almost always talking about "dwelling." This is not a hit television series, became a social topic of fire. Spread to all sectors of the city. ??I began to familiar perseverance to all the TV talk shows to make a recommendation on the "dwelling" in the subject. Although this topic has been in the network merged into a sea of saliva. User requirements should be - they have not met the best of my friends call me all trace of sincerity and wisdom, I decided to write their own true feelings on this movie. I first thought of the infamous Edison Chen have been gay, he proved to us that in this open society, in addition to master a foreign language other than very important to master basic computer knowledge is also extremely important. Because of his unexpected mistakes, many people experience through the network and the many celebrity he should not be exposed body parts. Has very serious consequences. Because it is the body's bottom line. That is, in a civilized society, at least to wear underwear, of course, still wearing a bra lesbian public display are the minimum requirements, despite the nudity in magazines and movies are generally welcomed by the masses, but most people still have to endure forward, keep peeping state, and there are no police on high alert around. But full of erotic desire lines, the scene of the "dwelling" is to go further. Because this is intertwined with love, marriage, family, money, power, desire, work, seems to show in a realistic and relentless despair of struggling urban house slaves, and the "ant" who never fulfilled the dream - although these were very diligent, brave, very long life. Just so, this drama can not be stirred up such strong emotions Julan society. Because the fragmentation of the times, people's value system has been with the wealth stratification fragmented, it is very difficult to have a common context of a feather. From the beginning, this movie tried to strip the city glitz gorgeous, glamorous coat, and even underpants. As completely off too, it seems quite cruel. Most ordinary people are hurt in addition to other emotional resonance, that is, Al-Hayat was also a fantasy, looking through the struggle to change that fate. However, if the tower of Babel to happiness are a few people had the patent, if you endless busy Again, nothing, how would you face? Many people are not ready to face the reality of the fast-approaching, so to escape, and self-deception, to see inspirational books and even get money to follow the success guru. Until the "flat" the emergence of such a proposition was made even more naked display in front of many people: if "the court death struggle, struggle is not to die", how would you do? If the lyrics of a famous Chao Chuan: the pressures of life and the dignity of life which is more important? On your answer. You have no way of escape. To treat all couples face of sea level, but do not want to trade all three algae only when small, have a family and not be willing to corrupt cadres Song Siming ordinary life, it's difficult to determine the merits of a simple choice of whether each person or commendable criticized, because we are screwed Pakistan, are distorted, I mean, not just living conditions, but also the underlying social and emotional environment, perceived value. This movie reminds us: in a bottom line is money, power and desire breakdown of the city, little people need to stick to pure goodness, loyalty, love, trust and care is an impossible task. There is reasonable. It is not hard to do a multiple choice: to survive, or called to live a decent and dignified, but they do not have a fair and just in front of the class rising channel, you can only do the deal, with the words of seaweed, called "meat compensation" . Cruel? In fact, such a deal already in the farmers or migrant workers in vulnerable sectors such for years - and you know how many farmers to abandon the child conscious university? How many farmers or the daughter of migrant workers prostitutes, became mistress a little better yet? This time it was just white-collar city - they are white-collar workers and the elite who ah. I do not believe do not want to believe this is the norm in society in general, but has not rare enough to arouse our vigilance and reflection. Therefore, the "flat" white underwear showing off the city's beautiful carcass is not a strong build, but the wounds and ulcers. About human nature. About passion. On the system. On faith. This is called the pain of transition. Worked with people of color of human nature. I said: human nature is not black, nor white, is gray. Like nature of the bustling city. But we must have an impulse: to make it white, instead of gradually reduced to a black community. Keep the bottom line is not the premise of a false oath to each person from becoming a noble, but we must first face the real downfall of the collective. From this perspective, the "flat" can be described as penetrating, is commendable. Finally, think of the writer Jack Kerouac's famous saying: we can not find the soul of the home, so our collective on the road. But at least my body can I call the shots, not easily carries it to do the deal, it put on underwear.
