Sterling off 1-mth high vs euro as weaker PMI weighs
* Single currency pares losses versus sterling
* Weaker-than-expected UK PMI boosts BoE doves
* Most investors don't expect QE at Thursday's BoE meeting
By Philip Baillie
LONDON Nov 5, (Reuters) - Sterling eased from a one-month high against the euro on Monday after the UK services sector expanded at a lower-than-expected pace and wrongfooted some investors who expected a robust reading.
The October UK purchasing managers' index survey showed expansion in the services sector, but came in lower than expected at 50.6 against analysts' forecasts of 52, for its lowest reading in almost two years.
Monday's data raises the chances that the economy could shrink again between October and December after surprisingly strong expansion in the third quarter.
Earlier the single currency had fallen broadly on fresh uncertainty about whether Greece can pass crucial labour reforms for it to receive more financial aid.
The euro was flat on the day at 80.04 pence, recovering from a low of 79.86 pence, its lowest since Oct 2. Near term resistance is at its 55-day moving average of 80.12 pence while offers are cited above 80.30/40 all of which could make the single currency struggle to gain further.
Against the buoyant dollar, the pound fell 0.3 percent to $1.5971, with traders citing UK exporters' bids at$1.5980 and support at $1.5935--the low struck on Oct 24.
"The services data has knocked the wind out of the sails of sterling a little, but it is likely the upside is going to continue," said Jeremy Stretch, head of currency strategy at CIBC World Markets.
He expected the euro's gains against sterling to be capped around 80.25 pence in the short term as underlying risks in Europe are more pronounced.
A stronger services indicator was expected to add to a more optimistic picture of the UK economy, with third-quarter growth coming in higher than expected and healthier construction data last week, all helping to bolster the pound.
Slightly weaker-than-expected services data, however, could strengthen the case for more asset purchases known as quantitative easing (QE) from the Bank of England. More QE usually hurts a currency as it increases the supply.
But CIBC's Stretch said the PMI data was unlikely to alter the course of QE, although could slightly boost the case for more easing from some members of the Bank of England's monetary policy committee (MPC), which meets on Thursday.
Some analysts expect the BoE to slightly increase its stimulus programme. That uncertainty is likely to check sharp gains in the pound before the meeting, traders said.
"From the BoE we expect a 25 billion pound boost to the QE securities purchasing limit," Credit Agricole told clients in a morning note.
Most analysts, however, expect the MPC to hold rates and keep its asset purchase programme unchanged until early 2013.
"Following comments of dampened expectations of quantitative easing from members we expect rates to be held," said Paul Robinson, head of European FX research at Barclays Capital.

SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — Most Americans who recently learned about a major breakdown in Internet security have been trying to protect themselves but a group nearly as large is unaware of the threat, according to a new survey.
Survey: 'Heartbleed' spooks 39 pct of Web surfers
The findings released Wednesday by the Pew Research Center provide a gauge on how Web surfers have been responding to a computer bug nicknamed "Heartbleed." The flaw in a key piece of security technology used by more than 500,000 websites had been exposing online passwords and other sensitive data to potential theft for more than two years.
After word of the problem got out on April 7, affected websites began to close the Heartbleed loophole and security specialists recommended that Web surfers change their online passwords as a precaution.
That advice apparently resonated among those who read about in the extensive media coverage of the Heartbleed risks.
Passwords were changed or online accounts were closed by 39 percent of the Internet users in Pew's telephone survey of 1,501 adults taken in the U.S. from April 23-27.
But 36 percent of the Internet users participating in the survey hadn't heard about Heartbleed at all.
The almost equal division between people insulating themselves from Heartbleed and those unaware of the problem shows there is still a knowledge gap even as the Internet and mobile devices make it quicker and easier to find all kinds of information.

|This Bedrug was a perfect drop in fit over the OEM bed liner for my Tacoma shortbed Double cab. Very simple to install and I did not need any extra Velcro hook and loop anywhere, as it pretty much lays flat after you roll it out and flex it the opposite direction it came rolled in. Has the two cut outs for the tie down anchors in the corner of the bed, and I simply pushed those through the cut outs, and pushed down the anchors to help secure the rug in place. Very clean look and good protection and easy on my knees. Be careful with wearing clothing that has hook and loop, like shorts, as they will easily pull the fibers out of the bedrug. Scissors take care of that easily enough. Very easy to remove and clean underneath.

|This bed mat is a really nice addition to my truck bed. It fits the bed about 98%-there is a little more gap than I expected between the sides and front to back, but overall is very close. The material is great for my purpose-to save my knees when I crawl around in there and to keep things from sliding around as much. It also looks great. I wouldn't want to rely on this as my primary liner. For example, hauling bark mulch could be a pain as it seems like bark and other grit will get caught in the fibers. But, it seems very durable. Looks great with the spray-in liner and gray carpet headliner in the cap. The adhesive worked better than I thought it would to mount the Velcro strips to the bed.

WASHINGTON (JTA) — Stanley Fischer was confirmed as a member of the Federal Reserve, clearing the way for the former Bank of Israel governor to become the Fed's vice chairman.
The U.S. Senate voted 68-27 in Fischer's favor on Wednesday afternoon, four months after President Obama nominated the dual U.S.-Israeli citizen who helmed Israel's central bank from 2005 to 2013.
The Senate's Democratic leadership agreed to a demand from Republicans for a separate vote on Fischer becoming vice chairman to succeed Janet Yellen, who moved to chairwoman in February after serving as the Fed's No. 2 from 2010 to 2014.
It was not clear when that vote would take place, but the vote Wednesday clears Fischer, 70, to attend the next Fed meeting, in mid-June.
Fischer previously held senior positions at the World Bank and the International Monetary Fund.

The current operational (promos, visuals, markdowns, payroll budget) changes are sometimes poorly planned so you end up working almost 50 hours while you are salaried which takes away from your personal life. There is a lack of DM longevity. I have worked for the company for almost 3 years and only had a DM for 1 year of that.Advice to ManagementAdvice

Car drives for miles with dog in axle
Updated On: Jul 08 2013 09:22:08 AM CDT
A Florida couple on their way to the beach is shocked to find a four-legged hitchhiker under the hood.
The dog somehow got trapped between the car's axle and steering mechanism and spent nearly 5 miles there as the couple drove to Dania Beach last Thursday, The Associated Press reported.
Broward County firefighters were called to free the animal, who emerged less than two minutes later without serious injuries.
It's not immediately clear how the dog got stuck under the hood, or if she's a stray.
The dog was taken to Hollywood Animal Hospital, where veterinarians said she was treated for burns on her stomach and legs, Miami TV station WPLG reported.

KIEV (Reuters) - Rebels in eastern Ukraine on Tuesday denied they had threatened to ban the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe (OSCE) from the crash site of Malaysian flight MH17.
The self-proclaimed "Donetsk People's Republic" (DNR) said in a statement that information published in some media that it was refusing to cooperate with the European rights and security body was not true.
"The DNR government has long been working effectively with the OSCE mission," a statement said, adding that areas of cooperation included investigation into the plane crash and ceasefire talks.
Earlier the rebels issued a statement saying they were going to halt cooperation with the OSCE, until now the main body tasked with negotiating access to the crash site for international experts, saying it was serving U.S. and Ukrainian interests.
The OSCE did not immediately comment.
International experts, including the OSCE as well as Dutch and Australian police, have already been struggling to reach the site to recover the remaining body parts and investigate the downing of the plane.
Fierce fighting in the wider area surrounding the crash site prevented the experts from reaching it for the third successive day on Tuesday, with Kiev and the pro-Russian rebels accusing each other of blocking access.
Kiev and the rebels also trade accusations over responsibility for the downing of the airliner, in which all 298 people on board were killed.

Teen Titans
Preview: Cartoon Network's 'Young Justice' is More Superhero than Sidekick
If you're a fan of the various animated shows that DC and Warner Bros. have created over the past two decades, chances are that 'Young Justice' was already on your radar -- or maybe this is the first you're hearing about the super new series, an energetic take on some familiar -- and lesser known -- teenage heroes such as Robin, Kid Flash, Aqualad, Superboy, Miss Martian and Artemis. Similar in tone to the superb 'Justice League Unlimited' but focusing more on the 'Teen Titans' generation, 'Young Justice' is certain to appeal to fervent DC fans and newcomers alike.
TV Squad was lucky enough to land an advanced screener of the one-hour pilot event airing tonight (Friday, Nov. 26) at 7PM ET on Cartoon Network. Join us after the jump for our advanced review -- there will be light spoilers, but nothing to ruin your enjoyment of the show.

Tony Jay dead
Yes, the headline would usually include the "at (age)," but I can't find anything that says what his age was. Nothing on the IMDB, and nothing on his site either.
You would recognize Jay's voice as much as his face, as he voiced an incredible number of cartoons over the years, including The Hunchback of Notre Dame, Reboot, Spiderman, Teen Titans, Superman, The Mighty Ducks, Gargoyles, and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, as well as a massive number of videogames: World of Warcraft, X-Men Legends, Lionhearts, various Star Trek games, Return to Castle Wolfenstein, and just about every other video game ever made that used a voice. But he had live action roles in TV and movies too, including Lois and Clark, Newhart, The Adventures of Brisco County, Jr., Mr. Belvedere, Twin Peaks, Beauty and the Beast, Eerie, Indiana, Matlock, Murphy Brown, Picket Fences, and The Golden Girls. He was also a Royal Shakespeare Company actor and a singer.
He died earlier this week after surgery for removal of a non-cancerous growth on his lungs.

What? The latest instalment of the super-flash notebook series from Toshiba, Qosmio. So fast. So pretty. So frickin' cool.
Why? Ignore the unpronounceable name – this little laptop is outstanding. Aside from being your regular typing-and-shit work-box, it's also an LCD television (18.4" wide), a monster hi-fi (thanks to its virtual surround sound system) and a superfast HDD/DVD recorder. It's ace. As if that weren't cool enough, the mouse-clickers down at Toshiba have given us an extra little bit of technical fuck-wowery: hands free media control. The Qosmio's webcam detects the movements of your hand and responds accordingly – show palm means stop, wiggle wrist left means go left, that kind of thing. In other words, imagine the screens of Minority Report – in your living room.
Price? You're looking at a wallet-raping £1600… or more.
When? Q3

ST. PAUL, MINNESOTA -- (Marketwired) -- 04/25/14 -- PolyMet Mining Corp. ("PolyMet" or the "Company") (TSX:POM)(NYSE MKT:PLM) - today reported that it has filed its financial results for the year ended January 31, 2014. PolyMet controls 100% of the development-stage NorthMet copper-nickel-precious metals ore-body and the nearby Erie Plant, located near Hoyt Lakes in the established mining district of the Mesabi Iron Range in northeastern Minnesota.
The financial statements have been filed at www.polymetmining.com and on SEDAR and EDGAR and have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS"). All amounts are in U.S. funds. Copies can be obtained free of charge by contacting the Corporate Secretary at First Canadian Place, 100 King Street West, Suite 5700, Toronto, Ontario M5X 1C7 or by e-mail at [email protected].
Earlier today, PolyMet announced the term of the convertible debentures originally issued in 2008 to Glencore AG, a wholly owned subsidiary of Glencore Xstrata plc ("Glencore"), had been extended for one year to September 30, 2015 (previously due September 30, 2014).
Douglas Newby, Chief Financial Officer, commented, "The debentures are convertible at a set price of US$1.2920 per share upon receipt of permits and construction finance. The extension reflects continued support from our largest shareholder and does not impact our anticipated schedule for permits in spring 2015. Following the very good rating from the US EPA on the project Supplement Draft EIS last month, our focus continues to be completion of permitting, securing construction finance, and completing pre-construction engineering and construction planning."
Financial Highlights
-- Loss for the year ended January 31, 2014 was $8.132 million compared with $6.626 million for the prior year period. General and administrative expenses excluding non-cash stock-based compensation in the year ended January 31, 2014 were $4.957 million compared with $3.653 million in the prior year period, excluding non-cash stock based compensation. -- Shareholder, investor and public relations expenditures increased to $2.075 million from $0.571 million in the prior year period largely owing to increased public relations activities associated with the supplemental draft Environmental Impact Statement and investor relations activity associated with the $60.5 million rights offering completed in July 2013. -- At January 31, 2014 PolyMet had cash and cash equivalents of $32.790 million compared with $8.088 million at January 31, 2013. -- PolyMet invested $25.324 million into its NorthMet project during the year ended January 31, 2014, compared with $18.404 million in the prior year period, which included $2.092 million for purchase of wetland restoration properties. -- On April 25, 2014 PolyMet and Glencore, agreed (subject to approval of listing the additional shares from the NYSE MKT and the Toronto Stock Exchange) to extend the maturity of the convertible debt by up to a year to the earlier of the Early Maturity Event (receipt of permits necessary to start construction of the NorthMet project and availability of senior construction finance, in a form reasonably acceptable to Glencore) and September 30, 2015 from the earlier of the Early Maturity Event and September 30, 2014. As such, $31.967 million convertible debentures, which were a current liability at January 31, 2014, are now a long-term liability. PolyMet can trigger conversion of the debt to equity upon the Early Maturity Event. -- As of January 31, 2014 PolyMet had spent $68.357 million on environmental review and permitting, of which $61.866 million has been spent since the NorthMet project moved from exploration to development stage.

About PolyMet
PolyMet Mining Corp. (www.polymetmining.com) is a publicly-traded mine development company that owns 100 percent of Poly Met Mining, Inc., a Minnesota corporation that controls 100 percent of the NorthMet copper-nickel-precious metals ore body through a long-term lease and owns 100 percent of the Erie Plant, a large processing facility located approximately six miles from the ore body in the established mining district of the Mesabi Range in northeastern Minnesota. Poly Met Mining, Inc. has completed its Definitive Feasibility Study and is seeking environmental and operating permits to enable it to commence production.

RNIB chief executive criticises 'arrogance' of MPs who think charities must learn from private sector

The Charity Commission has updated its guidance on fundraising, spelling out trustees' responsibilities to ensure fundraising is legal, ethical and profitable and outlining the self-regulation system in order to help maintain public trust and confidence.
Trustees are given additional extensive advice in the new guidance on what to consider when launching a fundraising campaign and how to decide on particular methods of raising money. The updated guidance, Charities and Fundraising, emphasises trustees' obligation to consider the potential reputational and trust risks in using different fundraising messages and methods. In particular, trustees warned that certain practices, like using distressing images and direct mail enclosures including pens and umbrellas, are to be considered contentious or unethical.
"Although the charity may see a short-term gain to employing such methods, donors may feel that they are being unduly pressured into donating and develop a negative perception of the charity and charities generally. Trustees should be aware of potential issues and risk factors before agreeing to a method of fundraising that may be considered contentious. Charities should not use any methods of fundraising that may damage public trust and confidence in charities," the guidance reads.
The Commission has also strengthened its position against chain letters, to now say that it "strongly discourages" the practice instead of the "generally discouraged" referred to in the previous guidance, last updated in part in April 2008.
Rosie Chapman, executive director for policy and effectiveness at the Charity Commission, said that trustees need to be made aware of good practice and their legal responsibilities in relation to fundraising in order to ensure public trust and confidence in the sector.
Complaints procedures and self-regulation are also addressed in full in the updated guidance, with the Charity Commission clarifying that it does not deal with fundraising complaints unless they pose a significant risk to the charity, directing complaints instead to charities and the Fundraising Standards Board.

You repressed gays are so hung up with the gender thing. You bend down offering your arses to the air to a god that is suposed to be male theres got to be some disorder there . If islam wasnt oppressing so many and being the root cause of so much violence it would be funny.<quoted text>
If she is a woman, why she chose "Man" as her Pseudo Name? Another personality disorder here? Hiding behind male sounding name?

Transocean CEO: Employees 'should have done more' to avert disaster
The chief executive of the company that owned the drilling rig that exploded in the Gulf of Mexico in 2010 says its employees "should have done more" to avert the disaster that killed 11 workers and caused the nation's worst offshore oil spill.
Transocean president and CEO Steven Newman testified Tuesday on the 14th day of a trial designed to determine the causes of BP's well blowout and to assign fault to the companies involved.
Newman said Transocean agreed to plead guilty to a misdemeanor charge of violating the Clean Water Act because its employees on the Deepwater Horizon played a role in botching a crucial safety test before the blowout of BP's Macondo well.
But Newman said BP ultimately was responsible for determining whether the test was successful.
