Christmas Gifts
Christmas Gifts
Cash feels like a cheap, impersonal gift, so why not give a gift that will keep on giving instead. All of us are afraid that we're wasting our money on a gift that is just going to sit around, or get thrown out. Because of the recent downturn of the economy, now is the time to buy Christmas gifts that are going to last. There are alternatives to manage the problem that may ultimately prove to be more beneficial than you would expect and the effects can be long-lasting positive.
1. Vouchers: Vouchers are a great gift to give as a substitute for cash. Vouchers are available at a number of different places -- gas stations, grocery stores, pharmacies -- making it a very versatile gift idea. Vouchers are often available through loyalty programs which results in little or no waste.
2. Credit Card Payment: If you know the full balance isn't being paid off each month, even a partial payment will help pay down the interest. The financial damage this will cause is much higher than the interest that will occur. Interest rates on credit cards are outrageously steep. A small amount like fifty dollars, paid on a credit card account as a gift, can result in saving ten dollars of interest over a year. After Christmas this is the gift that keeps on giving.
3. Making a charitable donation: For the person who has everything, donating money to a charity in his or her name is a wonderful gift idea. If you're looking to qualify for a tax break, try giving cash donations. You might also think about being charitable this Christmas, giving to those who are less fortunate.
4. Livestock: Buy livestock as a gift, considering it's something that will keep giving back to a person over time. World Vision has had a gift program for many years now where you can choose to buy either a goat or a chicken. It is even possible to purchase fruit trees or seeds. This gift is one that will never stop giving, and will be an amazing piece of your property.

Homemade Christmas Gifts - Christmas Gifts That Can be Made at Home
Homemade Christmas Gifts - Christmas Gifts That Can be Made at Home
What will you be giving the people you love for Christmas this year?
Store brand gifts, you can give everyone, like cookies in a round tin, truffles or bath items. For those dearest to your heart, a gift of jewelry is always nice.
What do you do if you don't have any money?
Nothing is more personal than home made Christmas gifts. When you create a gift with your own hands and heart, nothing makes a greater gift for those you love.
Here are some ideas for fairly simple Christmas gifts you can make.
Number 1. Someone else's trash might be a treasure to you. Look in the attic for junk you can turn into beautiful gifts. Do you know where to find beads no one wants? What about those 70's bead curtains that people don't use today? What about Christmas ornaments from long ago that don't fit in on your modern Christmas tree? Purchase a piece of elastic. Get out your scissors and carefully remove the beads from the curtains. Save beads from old necklaces, bead curtains and loose beads, then mix them up and put them together in new and fun combinations. String the beads on elastic thread for unique bracelets to use for gifts for the girls in your life, both young and old.
Number 2. Consider how much time you have to create the present. Do you know how to knit? Are you able to sew? You could make a cross stitch picture on a square piece of canvas and then sew it to a cushion cover, but only do this if you are a very patient person and have lots of free time on your hands. Begin with a pattern you know the recipient would enjoy and get started. Depending on how much time you have and your skill level, you could knit scarves or sweaters.
Number 3. Would you prefer to work with wood? A magazine rack would be great, if you are able to make it. If you're not up for that challenge, it might be easier to make a photo frame. You can create an easy picture frame with just two pieces of plywood and a saw, which can hold a photo of a special memory.
Number 4. Recollections of the past are priceless. How about a book of memories for those you love? Take a journal and let your imagination and artistic side go wild. Glue pictures on each page that bring back important memories for the recipient. Write a caption on every page about the event, then decorate it the best you can.
Number 5. Homemade food gifts for Christmas are always well received and you can make them yourself in ...
I Bought Handmade This Holiday Season - Christy Petterson
| comments (1) Written on December 28, 2007 4:19 PM
Now that all the gifts have been given, I thought I'd take a look at how well I did at buying handmade this holiday season. As previously stated, I do think it is ok for a few exceptions. Certain items can't be purchased handmade, mainly media (books, magazines, dvds, cds).
Below is everything I purchased! For specific details on each gift, please click here , where I list exactly who made each item.
I was proud to be able to purchase a few pieces of orginal art this year. A good friend of mine loves sea urchins and Wolfie and the Sneak had a beautiful 2-print set of sea urchins. Not exactly handmade, but I was also really excited to spread my love of Craft magazine by giving away many copies of the latest issue, which happens to contain my article about Japanese Book Binding .... I'm really proud of it!
I'm always so busy during the holiday season that it is hard for me to make hand crafted gifts. Instead I turned my focus to supporting other crafters. Luckily, there were ample opportunties to buy handmade. It's amazing how much the opportunities have grown over the past few years. It's great to be able to buy from so many exceptionally, talented crafters!

Credit unions across the state are opening small branches within high schools and Rhinelander is lucky enough to have one.
"I was hired the end of freshman year, so I've been here two and a half years now," said Thomas Mckenzie, a senior.
Mckenzie and Katlin Treuer, a junior, are typical teenagers, but their jobs are unconventional for students. They're tellers at the Ripco Credit Union Student Branch at Rhinelander High School.
The high school Ripco branch is a full service credit union. Members can cash checks, withdraw money or make a deposit.
Nestled into a tight corner next to the cafeteria, the credit union is open twice a week during the lunch hour. The tellers take care of other students, staff and anyone else who needs to do some banking.
"The kids really get a lot out of it," said Diane Sowinski, Ripco's vice president of marketing and business development. "Our student tellers are getting wonderful real life experience, they're seeing some relevance in their education and how it pertains to their life after high school."
Even though the small branch can't financially support itself, Sowinski says the life lessons taught to students makes it worthwhile and not only for the tellers who are gaining valuable work experience, but for those who need a lesson in money management.
"Budgeting and making sure you spend your money wisely is a very big problem because a lot of kids do not like to save money," Mckenzie said.
Sowinski agrees, adding that having a visible branch in the school is an advantage for the credit union and students.
"They're getting a better understanding of the importance of saving, of of how their financial responsibility is going to connect with the rest of their lives," she said.
Since the high school branch opened in 2009, two student tellers have stayed with the Ripco Credit Union after graduation.

Hoai-Tran Bui, special to wtop.com
WASHINGTON - It's not hard to spot a pop-up these days. The empty warehouse you pass on your commute is suddenly a vintage clothing store. The abandoned space on the corner is now a hip coffee shop.
Whether they're open for one night or one month, one thing is for sure -- pop-ups are at the height of cool for consumers. And for retailers, they just make sense.
For many D.C. business owners, pop-ups have been the answer to the economic recession, rising rent prices and the surge of creative spirit that has taken hold of the newest generation of entrepreneurs.
The temporary nature of the pop-up allows owners of restaurants, vintage stores and concert venues to test the limits of what they can do.
"When you hear the word pop-up, it automatically means innovation to me," says Shannon Evans, the founder of the pop-up concert series High Note. "It allows people to come in with the mindset of expecting something different."
The High Note concert series, which will hold the second of its four concerts on June 8, was created by Evans and soul singer Aaron Abernathy. The series showcases Abernath's music in a way that stands out from other concerts in the area.
Each concert in the series is held at a different, private location, and ticket-buyers are not notified of the location until 24 hours before the event.
"The need to (be creative) is always there, so having the opportunity to pop up something allows you to have that expression without that type of commitment of retail space," Evans says.
The rising rent cost of retail space in the D.C. area also adds to the popularity of the pop-up movement. Many start-up restaurants lack the resources or finances needed to open a permanent location. Often times, business owners resort to sharing a space with another establishment to overcome this obstacle.
"It's extremely hard for a lot of businesses to make it in D.C. and to create a profitable business based on the rent that a lot of these businesses are paying," says Chris Vigilante, owner of Vigilante Coffee.
Vigilante says having a pop-up is a stepping stone in opening and managing a permanent location.
Vigilante Coffee originally operated in a variety of locations, including Mr. Yogato's in Dupont Circle. Serving his product in another cafe helped Vigilante get on his feet and work out the kinks in running his business.
Eventually, he started receiving offers to pop up throughout the District.
"D.C.'s hungry for young entrepreneurs and for people to take their craft and elevate it to a new level," Vigilante says. "But more likely than that, they're looking to give an entrepreneur an opportunity."
D.C.'s friendly reception to pop-ups began to gain momentum with the appearance of "blank slate" venues.
Companies, like LivingSocial and Tabula Rasa, own venues that are purposefully "blank slate" spaces -- sites where a pop-up shop or event can take place for a couple of days.
LivingSocial began as a company that sold deals to consumers from local businesses and events in the area. In February 2012, LivingSocial launched its pop-up venue at 918 F St., NW to take a bigger role in hosting some of the events for which it previously advertised.
"D.C. is made up of a very active community of folks that like to go out and do things, and enjoy fine food and enjoy unique experiences," says Lauren Hengl, manager of 918 F St. "And launching our venue at 918 F St., we found that our members really liked coming to our buildings to try things that they'd never tried before."
On Capitol Hill, the sustainable event space Tabula Rasa hosts a variety of pop-ups, from cocktail events, to fashion bloggers and online retailers.
Amanda Clarke opened Tabula Rasa in May 2012 as a venue for corporate retreats and social gatherings. However, she later found that the space began to gain more popularity as a pop-up shop.
"We seem to do a lot more pop-ups than we do corporate," Clarke says. "It could be our location, we're very much a retail space. We have a very large picture window on a very busy space, where we're all starved for retail on Capitol Hill We have great restaurants and a lot of them, but there's not a lot of places to shop."
Clarke finds herself supporting many small businesses and online retailers that don't have their own location in D.C.
She focuses on showcasing unique novelty products to Capitol Hill residents and making Tabula Rasa the unofficial hotspot in the neighborhood.
"We have our vendors now saying people stop by just to see what's happening in the space on any given weekend or evening," Clarke says. "And I think when people drive by or they walk by and they see the lights on and they see people in here, it arouses their curiosity and they want to know what's happening."
The novelty of pop-ups begs the question of whether they are here to stay.
Jonas Singer, co-founder of former pop-up restaurant Blind Dog Café, expresses reservations at the sustainability of pop-ups.
"The way we're seeing pop-ups done now is probably not sustainable and it's more trendy," Singer says. "But I think there's definitely space for some smart, innovative people to come in, take that same kind of concept and make it into a long term idea."
Others argue the fleeting and trendy nature of pop-ups is the reason the format appealed to them in the first place. While the concept may not be financially lucrative, it is the creative aspect that is important.
"It's a different type of commitment, you're a little more free to make a mistake, to experiment," Evans says. "Some aspect of the pop-up will always remain and it has probably always been around, but the name might change."

"The brain works in mysterious ways," said Christopher Kane following his show - the stand out collection of the London season so far. This was the designer's first outing since he entered into partnership with French luxury goods conglomerate PPR (Pinault Printemps La Redoute) earlier this year, following in the footsteps of Stella McCartney and Alexander McQueen and with a view to expanding his relatively small business into a globally recognised brand.
Fashion's great and good queued up to congratulate him backstage, including the diminutive Salma Hayek, wife of PPR CEO Francois-Henri Pinault. And all in attendance had every reason to do so.
Here were sassy silk camouflage print separates - the jacket sack backed and with a broad, dropped shoulder, the kilt short and sharply pleated with glossy patent and metal fastenings. Later came the same motif in tufted patchwork: it looked great on an oversized coat. More delicate were intricate embroidered dresses that outlined the anatomy of the women wearing them. Kane called it "six pack lace" and in warm autumnal hues the end result was as feminine as it was fierce.
This was a much larger collection than the designer has shown to date. Feather and fur trim added a couture element to utilitarian wool tailoring; appliqued flowers in deadly nightshade hues densely covered surfaces. The final sequence of looks bouncing with twinkling pom poms and sprouting crystal fringing were as technologically pioneering as they were pretty and uplifting.
Kane said that the sheer scale of the proceedings was not necessarily a result of new backing although given the nature of at least some of the fabrications it might conceivably have been seen that way. Instead: "I just wanted to do a really beautiful show," he said. And that it most certainly was.

How do you think the Redskins are going to do this Sunday? What's your prediction? Post a comment in this story, comment on WTOP's Facebook Page or use #WTOP on Twitter.
AP Pro Football Writer
ASHBURN, Va. (AP) -- As a wideout, Santana Moss wants Washington Redskins quarterback Robert Griffin III to throw the ball as much as possible, of course, preferably in his direction.
As a football player hoping to advance in the playoffs, Moss wants the Redskins to do what they've done as well as anyone in the NFL this season: run, run, run.
"That's big to me. Everywhere I've played and been successful, we ran the ball to pass the ball. Nowadays, a lot of teams fling the ball everywhere, and you want to be a part of that as a receiver," Moss said. "But when you really want to win games, you have to have both parts of your offense working, the air and the ground. It's great to see we have that here."
They do, indeed, thanks in part to the man known as RG3, who set a rookie QB record by running for 815 yards, and to another rookie, Alfred Morris, who finished second in the league with 1,613 yards rushing. Washington averaged an NFL-high 169.3 yards on the ground, and its opponent in the first round of the NFC playoffs Sunday is the Seattle Seahawks, who ranked No. 3 at 161.2, led by Marshawn Lynch.
Clearly, as much as the NFL is a passing league, it still helps to be able to run the ball.
"It doesn't have to be great, but you have to have an effective running game to be able to be successful," said two-time Super Bowl champion John Elway, now the Denver Broncos executive VP of football operations. "The reason I say that is because, if you get leads, you've got to be able to eat clock with it and you've got to be able to keep people honest, especially pass-rushing teams."
Elway was the quarterback and Terrell Davis was a 2,000-yard running back when the Broncos won the 1999 Super Bowl, the last time the league's leading rusher earned an NFL championship (their coach then was Mike Shanahan, currently with the Redskins). It's only happened three other times since the AFL-NFL merger in 1970, according to STATS LLC, and always by the same guy: Emmitt Smith, with the Dallas Cowboys in 1993, 1994 and 1996.
A season's leader in yards passing, by the way, never has won a Super Bowl in that span, STATS said.
The top three rushers during this regular season are in the playoffs: Adrian Peterson of the Minnesota Vikings, Morris and Lynch. Other notable running backs in action this weekend include Arian Foster of the Houston Texans and Ray Rice of the Baltimore Ravens. The top three quarterbacks in yards passing, meanwhile, are done: Drew Brees of the New Orleans Saints, Matthew Stafford of the Detroit Lions and Tony Romo of the Cowboys. Two of the top three in yards receiving also have plenty of time on their hands now: Calvin Johnson of the Lions and Brandon Marshall of the Bears.
Come playoff time, it turns out, good running performances are a better indicator of success than good passing performances.
In playoff games in the Super Bowl era, teams with a 100-yard rusher are a combined 157-37 (a winning percentage of .809), while teams with a 300-yard passer are 57-66 (only .463), according to STATS.
Admittedly, that presents something of a chicken-and-egg scenario: Did teams get a lead and win because they ran the ball well? Or did they gain a lot of yards running because they already were ahead and were trying to run out the clock?
Either way, the Vikings, Seahawks and Redskins are unabashedly putting emphasis on the ground game. Seattle led the NFL by running on 55 percent of its offense's plays, Washington was next at 52.2, and Minnesota fifth at 48.6.
"I definitely want to keep the running backs highlighted. It's started to turn into more of a spread- , quarterback-friendly NFL," Peterson said, "but just keep letting them know that there are going to be running backs that can do this."
In addition to gaining yardage on its own, a good run game opens up room for play-action fakes to help the passing game.
"Especially in playoff football, it seems like the running game always plays a bigger part. The weather gets bad, it gets windy, and things like that. The ability to run the ball and stop the run is crucial," Redskins defensive tackle Barry Cofield said. "And it's what our team is built on."
Cofield said that Shanahan's first order of business as he opens planning meetings each Wednesday is to talk about how Washington's defense fared against the run in its previous game and what needs to be done against the run in the next game.

The 14 element in 12 group lens construction boasts 3 high-refractive index elements, 2 ED elements and a hybrid aspherical and aspherical glass element for sharply defined images while minimizing distortion and chromatic aberrations. The minimum focus distance is 11.02" from the lens for up close shots. A built-in petal-type lens hood reduces glare. Plus, it comes with a 5-piece lens cleaning kit.Product Features:

Written by Jackie Pierangelo Friday, 23 October 2009 00:00
Democratic incumbent Jon Kaiman is seeking re-election to his fourth two-year, term as Town of North Hempstead Supervisor. Challenging him this year is Albertson resident and Republican candidate Lee Tu. The election is being held on Tuesday, Nov. 3.
Both candidates were asked to submit biographical information, their platforms and to state what they would bring to the office of town leader.
Jon Kaiman said that he brings to the office of Town of North Hempstead Supervisor a distinguished record of public and private sector accomplishments. His three terms in office have been underscored by his continuation of the town's tradition of sound finances and good government, he said.
Kaiman states that North Hempstead is the seventh largest of approximately 1,500 towns, cities and villages in the State of New York. He goes on to note that "Money Magazine ranked the town number 46 in its 2008 listing of the 'Best 100 Places to Live in America.' North Hempstead was one of three communities in New York State to make the list."
Since taking office on January 1, 2004, Kaiman says he has "spearheaded a series of bold initiatives to update the town's infrastructure and incorporate modern management techniques in day-to-day operations."
One of these has been the establishment of a 311 Constituent Response System. Kaiman said this new technology provides North Hempstead residents greater access to government, while enhancing efficiency and accountability.
TownStat, another one of his key initiatives, is gaining momentum in the town, he says. A performance measurement and management tool, TownStat tracks and reports performance in departments throughout the town with the goal of monitoring the efficiency and effectiveness of how constituents' concerns are addressed.
Another initiative he says he is proud of focuses on partnerships with neighboring municipal entities—"more than 100 exists within the town—to cut costs and help save taxpayer dollars." He points out, "Since the formation in 2006 of the Office of Inter-municipal Coordination, the town has almost 50 inter-municipal agreements with various entities, including villages, special districts, school districts and associations."
As supervisor, Kaiman said he has instituted North Hempstead's annual Earth Day Program and Operation Clean Sweep—a month- long, top to bottom "Spring Cleaning" of the town. During its five years of existence, the program has removed tens of thousands of tons of garbage and debris, he notes.
He says he sees his role as supervisor, in part, as "steering the town toward environmentally-friendly alternatives." He added, "I have engineered the establishment of a sweeping town-wide recycling initiative, a program that has located recycling containers in all the town's buildings, its network of parks and eight of North Hempstead's 11 school districts."
Continuing, he states, "My mission to green North Hempstead also includes the purchase of over 20 hybrid and electric vehicles as well as the staging of various events, such as EcoFest, promoting environmental stewardship."
Kaiman says another key component of his administration is the idea of Community Based Planning. "Beginning in 2004, the town has hosted scores of community-based meetings throughout North Hempstead to address local concerns relating to development projects, planning decisions, park and roadway improvements, and other local issues," Kaiman reports.
As part of his "continuing quest to be responsive to the needs of the community," Kaiman advises that he has also initiated Project Independence, a town-wide program born from a pilot launched two years ago in New Hyde Park to help senior citizens "age in place" and access information on basic services such as health care, social worker assistance and community programming.
Speaking about the other hats he wears, Kaiman states that he also serves as the chairman of the town's Solid Waste Management Authority, commissioner of the Great Neck North Water Authority, and board member of the Long Island Regional Planning Council. Additionally, he serves as chair of approximately 19 non-commissioner run special districts operating within the town's borders.
Kaiman received a Juris Doctorate from Hofstra University Law School, and a bachelor of arts from Hofstra University. Professionally, he was elected in 1999 to the Nassau County District Court, where for two consecutive years he received the highest rating possible from the Nassau County Bar Association's Judicial Screening Committee.
Kaiman is a longtime resident of Great Neck, where he lives with his wife Kim, sons Shaun and Jared and daughter Iyana.
Lee Tu wants voters to know that he brings to this campaign his broad experience as a private sector and municipal auditor, coupled with educational training as an accountant, skills which, he said, are essential in North Hempstead town's next supervisor.
Tu earned his bachelor of science degree from New York University's Stern School of Business and works as a senior audit manager at Cornick, Garber & Sandler, LLP in Manhattan. In this capacity, he has performed financial audits of private, public and not-for-profit entities. In addition, he has counseled publicly-traded companies on Sarbanes-Oxley (SOX) compliance issues.
Tu said he has gained invaluable governmental experience as an auditor in New York City's Department of Real Estate Services. In that role, he performed compliance and contract audits for an agency with one of the nation's largest municipal real estate portfolios. According to Tu, the thorough audits he and his colleagues conducted saved city taxpayers millions of dollars.
According to Tu, his interest in government and community affairs dates back to his days at Francis Lewis High School in Queens, where he was selected to serve on the New York City Mayor's Youth Advisory Council. While at New York University, he was chosen to be a part of the prestigious Dwight Eisenhower Fellowship program in Washington, D.C.
Tu states that, if elected, his administration would "take pro-active steps to limit the general fund property tax increases, excessive spending, and lax management that have too often been a staple of North Hempstead town government since I moved to Albertson in 1993."
According to Tu, "Property taxes are one of the biggest issues on voters' minds" and "while the town's general fund property tax is less than the school or county tax, the percentage tax increase we've seen in North Hempstead's general fund tax levy in recent years are unacceptable." He asserts that the "town government needs a top to bottom reassessment of the services it provides."
A key component of Tu's platform is the need for "overhaul and reform of the town's mismanaged building department" He said, "There's no reason for the number of employee arrests and indictments."
Tu also said that, if elected, he would enact a "Property Owner's Bill of Rights" aimed at ensuring that the residents' rights are respected whenever they interact with the building department. "Too often, applications can sit for months, even years, without any meaningful action," he said.
The candidate also wants to increase and enhance the number of town-sponsored concerts, firework displays and other quality of life initiatives. "These programs can be allocated more money after my administration identifies and eliminates the excesses which have been built into the town's general fund budget since 1992," he said,
As supervisor, Tu said he would work to "protect local governments, such as villages, water and park districts and volunteer fire departments –government entities which have proven cost-effective and ensure local control of municipal affairs."
Another component of his platform, would be to "work with residents on important local issues such as creating additional parking and easing traffic in Port Washington, building a suitable sewer system in Great Neck, making sure street sweeping is not only announced but done throughout the year from New Hyde Park to Roslyn, as well as revitalizing downtowns in areas such as Carle Place." Said Tu, "My goal is to work with residents, civic associations and other concerned groups and make them a part of the decision-making process."
Tu asks the residents of the town to cast their vote for him and choose a new beginning. "I believe that town government is about serving the community and not about the same old party politics," he said, adding, "Only together we can preserve our quality of life and make the town that we love a better place."

This discussion paper examines the provision of care for older people by linking various care at macro (national) and micro (individual or family) levels. This paper argues that these different levels are not mutually exclusive. On the one hand, products of macro level national policies, regulations and programmes must be compatible with the needs of target groups. Therefore, policy makers in particular, need to be well informed of what is really happening in people's lives at the micro level.
Asia was faced with a sudden and sharp crisis in 2008-2009, the proximate cause of which was reversals in foreign capital flows, not unlike the regional crisis a decade ago. How different has this boom and bust cycle of international capital flows been from the previous one? The paper examines the balance of payments dynamics in emerging Asia to understand the magnitude and types of private capital flows to and from the region between 1990 and 2008.
This special issue of the Bulletin is a collection of seven papers discussing various issues related to dry port development in a number of selected countries located in Asia, Africa, Europe and North America. Discussions of dry port development under different economic and political backgrounds will provide policymakers with a better understanding of the relevant issues under consideration.

South-South Cooperation and Triangular Development Cooperation (SSC and TDC) in Asia-Pacific have grown in importance over the past decades with the rising complementarities and emergence of growth poles in the region and due to attention paid by the governments to regional economic cooperation.
The subprime mortgage crisis erupted in the United States in mid-2007 and was then transformed into the global financial crisis after the failure of Lehman Brothers in September 2008. The total amount of write-downs of loans and securities by financial institutions for 2007-2010 is estimated to reach $1 trillion in the United States, $604 billion in the United Kingdom, and $814 billion in the Euro Area. By contrast, the Asia-Pacific region is expected to have write-downs of only $210 billion, suggesting the limited damages incurred on the banking sector.
It is widely recognized that the quality of trading environment has a significant impact on export competitiveness. The studies compiled in this publication analyse the relationship between trade facilitation and export competitiveness; analyse quantitatively and qualitatively the impact of trade costs on export; examine the status of export competitiveness in the region by using various indicators; and identify the effective ways of improving trading environment through trade and transport facilitation.
The principal aim of this publication is to fill a perceived gap in policy-related research and understanding of the development of the small and medium-sized enterprise (SME) sector in the Asia-Pacific region, in the context of a rapidly changing and mutating international business environment. To foster growing national economies, policymakers in virtually all countries are expected to facilitate the entry of new business ventures and to increase the competitiveness of SMEs.
Since 1990, the Human Development Index has revolutionized discussions about human development. However, it suffers from two deficiencies, which can now be mitigated: geographic incompleteness and insufficiently "on-target" representation of economy, knowledge, and "a long and healthy life" at the level of the individual. This report summarizes attempts to rectify those deficiencies.
The Asia-Pacific Development Journal (APDJ) is published twice a year by the Macroeconomic Policy and Development Division of the United Nations Economic and Social Commission for Asia and the Pacific (ESCAP).
The primary objective of the APDJ is to provide a platform for the exchange of knowledge, experience, ideas, information and data on all aspects of economic and social development issues and concerns facing the region and to stimulate policy debate and assist in the formulation of policy.

Rita Ora and Calvin Harris' romance became the topic of conversation after they were each seen spending time with other people—the Brit singer was spotted hanging out with Justin Bieber and Harris was photographed partying with a mystery brunette—but the EDM DJ has set the record straight on the status of their relationship.
"To address speculation – myself and Rita ended our relationship some time ago. She is a beautiful, talented woman & I wish her all the best," Harris tweeted today.
Rita and Calvin had been together for quite some time and accompanied each other to multiple red carpet events.
When asked about falling in love with the DJ, Ora told Elle, "He got something out of me that I never thought I had. Yes, like falling in love. I just didn't think I had it. I'd never experienced it before. And I was just like in the wilderness, thinking, 'Will it ever happen?'

Luxury items like control systems and home theaters usually come at a high price. However, it doesn't have to be that way, claims professional home systems installer Greg Mizerek of Advanced Media Systems of Morristown, NJ. "When you use a combination of the right products, you can enjoy all the functionality of a high-end system but pay half as much," he says.
As proprietors of their own home-building business, these homeowners know all too well how easy it can be to blow a budget when picking out amenities for a new house. So they took Mizerek's advice to heart when it came time to construct their own custom home. Make no mistake, though. The couple wasn't about to skimp on quality. Products from some of the most reputable names in the home electronics business would occupy their 9,000-square-foot colonial. Not one, but three full-blown entertainment systems would offer them several big-screen, 5.1 surround-sound movie viewing options; great-sounding built-in speakers would fill every nook and cranny with music; and a well-appointed rack of cutting-edge components would provide them with access to a rich variety of media content.
Saving Labor
Even though the electronics chosen for their residence were powerful, sophisticated and rich in features, Mizerek was able to keep costs in check by going with products that were easy to program. "Often, that's the biggest expense," he says. He also made sure the products he selected would provide the homeowners with devices other than pricey touchpanels to use to control their home's lights, thermostats and audio/video gear. "Some touchpanels can cost upwards of $5,000 apiece, plus programming," says Mizerek. "In this setup, the homeowners would be able to enjoy the same level of control from less expensive keypads and handheld remotes." Touchpanels do have their merits, though. They are extremely intuitive and easy to master, so the homeowners treated themselves to a couple of units.
Moving Music
So what kinds of electronic devices can the homeowners operate with their array of controls? Just about anything. They can arrange groups of lights for a party by touching a button by the front door, have different music piped to different areas, adjust multiple thermostats from a single location, view surveillance cameras on the screen of any TV, and much more.
Each electronic amenity is governed by its own system, an arrangement that offers the homeowners more spontaneity of control," says Mizerek. "Instead of having to scroll through a series of menus on a touchpanel to find the controls for their whole-house music system, for example, they can go straight to an Elan Olé keypad, press one button and have music delivered to the room." An Elan S12 multiroom controller processes requests issued by the keypads—each room has its own—as well as more complicated commands sent to it from a 7-inch Elan VIA! touchpanel stationed on the kitchen counter. From this one control device, the owners can view a list of their entire music library and direct certain songs to play in certain rooms. For example, they might pick something from their rock-and-roll archives to play out on the patio, something bluesy for the kitchen, and an FM news station for the master bedroom.
As many as 12 different streams of music can play simultaneously in up to 16 independent listening zones. Those audio streams are fed from a rack of components hidden away in a basement utility room to as many as 21 pairs of in-ceiling speakers peppered throughout the house and two pairs of rock speakers in the yard. Tucked inside the equipment rack are two FM tuners, three XM satellite radio tuners, an Elan VIA!dj music server and a high-def cable receiver. An iPod may soon join the audio accoutrements, too. Mizerek wired the kitchen and office for in-wall iPod docking stations, so that music stored on the portable can be spread throughout the house.Facebook and Twitter.

By RALPH D. RUSSO
AP College Football Writer
NEW YORK (AP) - He's Johnny Best in Football now _ and a freshman, at that.
Texas A&M quarterback Johnny Manziel became the first newcomer to win the Heisman Trophy, taking college football's top individual prize Saturday night after a record-breaking debut.
Notre Dame linebacker Manti Te'o finished a distant second in the voting and Kansas State quarterback Collin Klein was third. In a Heisman race with two nontraditional candidates, Manziel broke through the class ceiling and kept Te'o from becoming the first purely defensive player to win the award.
"That barrier's broken now," Manziel said. "It's starting to become more of a trend that freshmen are coming in early and that they are ready to play. And they are really just taking the world by storm."
None more than the guy they call Johnny Football.
Manziel drew 474 first-place votes and 2,029 points from the panel of media members and former winners. Te'o had 321 first-place votes and 1,706 points and Klein received 60 firsts and 894 points.
"I have been dreaming about this since I was a kid, running around the backyard pretending I was Doug Flutie, throwing Hail Marys to my dad," he said after hugging his parents and kid sister.
Flutie was one of many Heisman winners standing behind Manziel as he gave his speech on stage at the Best Buy Theater in Times Square.
"I always wanted to be in a fraternity," Manziel said later. "Now I get to be in the most prestigious one in the entire world."
Manziel was so nervous waiting for the winner to be announced, he wondered if the television cameras could see his heart pounding beneath his navy blue pinstripe suit. But he seemed incredibly calm after, hardly resembling the guy who dashes around the football field on Saturday. He simply bowed his head, and later gave the trophy a quick kiss.
"It's such an honor to represent Texas A&M, and my teammates here tonight. I wish they could be on the stage with me," he said with a wide smile, concluding his speech like any good Aggie: "Gig' em."
Just a few days after turning 20, Manziel proved times have truly changed in college football, and that experience can be really overrated.
For years, seniors dominated the award named after John Heisman, the pioneering Georgia Tech coach from the early 1900s. In the 1980s, juniors started becoming common winners. Tim Tebow became the first sophomore to win it in 2007, and two more won it in the next two seasons.
Adrian Peterson had come closest as a freshman, finishing second to Southern California quarterback Matt Leinart in 2004. But it took 78 years for a newbie to take home the big bronze statue.
"It doesn't matter anymore," he said.
Peterson was a true freshman for Oklahoma. As a redshirt freshmen, Manziel attended school and practiced with the team last year, but did not play in any games.
He's the second player from Texas A&M to win the Heisman, joining John David Crow from 1957, and did so without the slightest hint of preseason hype. Manziel didn't even win the starting job until two weeks before the season.
Who needs hype when you can fill-up a highlight reel the way Manziel can?
With daring runs and elusive improvisation, Manziel broke 2010 Heisman winner Cam Newton's Southeastern Conference record with 4,600 total yards, led the Aggies to a 10-2 in their first season in the SEC and orchestrated an upset at then-No. 1 Alabama in November that stamped him as legit.
He has thrown for 3,419 yards and 24 touchdowns and run for 1,181 yards and 19 more scores to become the first freshman, first SEC player and fifth player overall to throw for 3,000 yards and run for 1,000 in a season.
"You can put his numbers up against anybody who has ever played the game," Texas A&M coach Kevin Sumlin said.
Manziel has one more game this season, when the No. 10 Aggies play Oklahoma in the Cotton Bowl on Jan. 4.
As for the Heisman, Manziel said he'd like to keep it right next to his bed.
"But I'm in college. A lot of people come through the house. We live in a college neighborhood. It might not be a good idea. If I can get a case that's indestructible, locked and looks pretty good, we'll see where I keep it," he said.
The resume alone fails to capture the Johnny Football phenomena. At 6-foot-1 and 200 pounds, Manziel is master of the unexpected, darting here and there, turning plays seemingly doomed to failure into touchdowns.

Wow! What a stylish November Ms. Kerr has had! It's been one fashion triumph after another, even her most dedicated followers would be forgiven for not keeping up!
Granted, the Australian supermodel would look smokin' hot in a black bin bag, but Miss Miranda is so much more than a clotheshorse! And we're smitten with her current winter wardrobe: a gorgeous mix of cool contemporary brands like Isabel Marant, Acne and Alexander Wang and luxury big guns like Givenchy, Hermes and Prada.
Miranda's November wardrobe falls into two key looks, the first has a sassy Upper East Side quality to it: think super sexy, close fitting silhouettes like her Balenciaga pencil skirt and the Victoria Beckham dress she recently stepped out in (see the gallery above) that hugged in all the right places!
Then there's Miranda's more edgy outfits, these show off her fabulous fashion flare, where gorgeous knitwear, denim separates and leather pieces showcase a masterclass in winter layering.
And we can't help but notice that no matter what Miranda wears, from a simple jeans ensemble to a slouchy sweater dress look, she's never without some sex appeal, whether that be a sheer black blouse or flash of bare leg with her over-the-knee boots, Miranda sure knows how to flaunt what she's got!
So what are the key ingredients to Miranda's uber stylish look? We've narrowed it down to 5 golden rules:
1. If you've got it flaunt it: Miranda knows what her (many) assets are and chooses clothes that flatter them, everytime!
2. Be a proportion perfecter: Miranda is brilliant at balancing out voluminous coats and other layers with skinny jeans. And always wears her oversized trousers with fitted tops.
3. Invest in accessories that go the distance: we love spotting Miranda re-wearing her favourite accessories in different ways. This month her most worn items have to be: a black leather Givenchy handbag, a pair of Miu Miu glitter sunnies and her Isabel Marant boots.
4. Snap up a trophy coat: Miranda's been getting some serious style miles from her black Givenchy and grey Isabel Marant coats this month.
5. Make layered looks your winter style survival: mixing denim, knits and leather is a super chic Kerr speciality!

Laptop computers are fast becoming popular among the users who have limited desk space. With the advancement in technology more compact, lighter and are more user friendly laptops are available in the market which has attracted people to buy laptop computers from companies like computer repairs ashfield. Those who have planned to buy a laptop should know what to look for when choosing a new laptop. Given here are some helpful tips for the prospective buyers. You can also create your own youtube videos like a cover Dusty Springfield (Cover) – Stay Awhile by Lorraine Ashby.
Just using picasso it's very easy all from your laptop.
Hard drives of laptop computers are relatively compact and cost more than the disk of desktops. The HD memory of most of the computer ranges between 100-500 gigabytes which is adequate enough to store dozens of songs, pictures and movies etc but those who want to have extra memory ensure to buy a portable and light HD that have a better capacity. Furthermore, the new type of Hard Drive called Solid State Drive or SSD are much faster than the other conventionally used hard drives. If you choose to buy a computer where SSD is installed, your battery will last for a long time; your laptop will consume less power and will take less time to boot up.
However, laptops with SSDs cost you more than the other drives of the same capacity but to enhance the overall performance of your laptop and for several other advantages you should buy laptops with SSDs. Another thing to look for when choosing a new laptop is its RAM or Random Access Memory. If you have more RAM then you will be able to open up multiple programs simultaneously without hampering the speed of your computer. To put it in simple words, more RAM means better speed of your laptop. Most of the laptops available in the market have gigabytes of RAM. But, if you need an amazing speed then you can go in for buying either two or four gigabytes of RAM provided it is affordable to you. If your budget constraints and cannot purchase higher RAM, you will have the option of upgrading it.
Speed of the processor is another thing you should look for when choosing a new laptop especially when you want to use the machine for video or graphic design purposes. Laptops which are sold as netbooks have low-voltage processors that extend the life of your battery. If you want a super fast speed then you should go for multi-core options. Light weight of your computer is the another significant thing which you should consider. If you are an entrepreneur on move then you must buy a light weight and portable laptop for your convenience. If you require some helpful advice consider contacting your local computer repair firm.
You should seriously consider the size of laptop screen when buying it. Large screen of the laptop effects its portability. Normally, the screen size of the netbooks ranges between 8-9 inches whereas if you need laptops for making presentations or for large scale viewing, the screen size should be up to 17 inches. Other factors to consider when you buy laptop are screen resolution, screen backlight, graphic cards, keyboard and a lot more. So, consider all the above given factors and stop wondering what to look for when choosing a new laptop.which could avoid company information from staying lost.

1. It can mean a slow breaking up process as described above. But my first thought on it would be that a slow dump is one of physical bowel constipation. I guess the two of them can be the same, either way you get crap, neither one is pleasurable, both are painful, you hurt before, while, and after it's going on, and they both stink!
I was broke last week, and all I had left in food stamps was enough to buy bread and peanut butter; man was I stuck with the slow dumps all week. I will NEVER do that again! I am gunna but some greens & beans or something next month; this last week jiss about killed me. Thank God it's almost my food stamp pay day!
