Label Decoder: Diacetyl
by Toby Amidor in Grocery Shopping, Label Decoder, March 9, 2012There's no better snack for movie night at home than a bucket of buttery popcorn. But you may think twice about the microwave stuff after we tell you about and ingredient it contains, diacetyl, and the trouble it has caused.
What is it?
Diacetyl was first synthesized more than 80 years ago and can now be found in about 6,000 food products. It's used as a preservative in unsalted butter to lengthen shelf life, but higher amounts are added to butter-flavored products like microwave popcorn, cooking oils and sprays and margarine.
Is It Safe?
Low levels of this additive are safe, however diacetyl gained notoriety around 2005 to 2007 when employees working in American factories became very ill after long-term exposure. Studies have also found that professional chefs who stand over hot grills or skillets for hours using large amounts of butter substitutes are also at risk. Reported side effects included persistent dry cough and wheezing, shortness of breath. Several employees of food companies using the ingredient were diagnosed with obstructive lung disease, which is potentially fatal. After this fiasco, most major food companies switched to safer ingredients.
Bottom Line: To play it safe, you're better off making your own popcorn. Leave the microwave stuff for a once-in-a-while snack.

We recently stayed a week at the Blanco and had a wonderful stay! Our check-in was smooth and Henoc at the front desk went above and beyond to accommodate our requests. His customer service was top notch! The rooms were very clean and the view from the balcony was breath-taking. Watching the sun rise each morning from our balcony was beautiful! We hung out by the pool most days, and took walks along the beach. Although you need to go early to the pool each day to reserve your chair, the pool never felt crowded. They had daily activities in and around the pool area which several people seemed to enjoy. The service at the pool was good and the servers were very good about reminding you about happy hour and would check on us often. We had no complaints about the food at the resort, however, we usually walked downtown to some great restaurants. (Maria Corona & Solomon's Landing were our favorites). The location is the best in Cabo, the views from the resort (and your room) are amazing, and the customer service is outstanding! The Blanco will definitely be our first choice on our next visit to Cabo.

First impressions mean a lot.
And residents of Lancaster will be
glad to hear what the new city
administrator's first impression is
of Lancaster.
That's Steve Winger, who begins
working as Lancaster's next city
administrator later this month.
Winger is coming from Center Point,
Iowa, where he's been the city
administrator since 2008.
What else impressed Winger about
Lancaster ??? Memorial Park,
the swimming pool, the committment
to veterans through the Veterans
Memorial Project, and street projects
being done. The comment about
street projects probably comes from
his experience as an Interim Public
Works Director in Center Point.
Winger is a native of Dubuque,
a graduate of Hempstead High School
and a graduate of Loras College.
Winger's first day on the job in
Lancaster will be July 15th.
He replaces Stephen Crane, who
resigned take a job in municipal
administration in Massachusetts.

Virtualize a Server with Minimal Downtime
After Knoppix boots, you need to partition, format and mount the new partitions for this virtual machine. Use fdisk or cfdisk from the command line to create your partitions to match your physical server. Again, you don't have to match the partition sizes exactly, as long as there is plenty of room to store all the files from the physical server. For this example, I will have a physical server with a single SCSI drive (/dev/sda) with three partitions: /dev/sda1 for root, /dev/sda2 for swap and /dev/sda3 for /home. After you create the same partitions on the virtual machine, format them with the same filesystems you use on the physical machine, create mountpoints for them and then mount them:
$ sudo mkfs -t ext3 /dev/sda1 $ sudo mkfs -t ext3 /dev/sda3 $ sudo mkswap /dev/sda2 $ sudo mkdir -p /mnt/sda1 /mnt/sda3 $ sudo mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/sda1 $ sudo mount /dev/sda3 /mnt/sda3
Now that you have created and mounted the partitions, you are ready for the first synchronization. For this to work, your virtual machine must have network access, and specifically, it needs to be able to access SSH on the physical machine. By default, Knoppix will attempt to get a DHCP lease if available, but otherwise, if your rescue disc is not able to get on the network, you need to make the necessary changes so that it can. This virtualization procedure reduces downtime by synchronizing the files twice—once while the physical server is running and once after it is off-line. The idea here is that a majority of files on most servers stay the same, at least over one or two days. If you perform the bulk of the file synchronization while the server is on-line, when you take it off-line, the final synchronization can occur much faster.
I use rsync for the synchronization, and for it to work, you need to allow (at least temporarily) for root SSH logins to occur on the physical machine. If it is disabled, edit /etc/ssh/sshd_config and change PermitRootLogin no to PermitRootLogin yes, and restart sshd. Otherwise, it will be difficult for rsync to copy all the files on the system. You will run an rsync command for each partition on the physical server, so in this example, that makes two rsync commands:
$ sudo rsync -avx --numeric-ids ↪--progress physicalhost:/ /mnt/sda1/ $ sudo rsync -avx --numeric-ids ↪--progress physicalhost:/home/ /mnt/sda3/
The rsync options I use here are chosen very deliberately, so it's worth understanding what each of them does. The -a option sets "archive mode", which essentially turns on a number of rsync options that preserve file ownership and permissions and other settings. The -v option makes rsync provide more output about what it is doing, and the --progress argument displays a progress meter so you can keep up with how long rsync will take. The other two arguments are rather important, and if you don't use rsync regularly, you might not come across them much. The -x argument tells rsync to stick to one filesystem. This is important particularly when you back up the / partition; otherwise, rsync happily will traverse into /home or any other partitions you have and copy them all into your local /mnt/sda1 mountpoint, which probably will not have enough space to hold everything. The --numeric-ids argument sets file permissions on the destination files based on their numeric ID and not the matching user or group name. This is important as the Knoppix CD very likely has different user and group ID mappings than your server.
After these rsync commands complete, you are ready to take your physical server off-line. If you did need to schedule a maintenance window for the physical server, just leave the virtual machine running in its current state, and proceed to the next step when you are ready to take the physical machine off-line. If a number of days will pass until your maintenance window, you might want to run the above rsync commands again once you are close to the maintenance window, just so the final off-line rsync will happen more quickly.
On the Physical Server:
The last synchronization happens when the physical server is completely off-line, so you can make sure that no other files change on you. To do this, simply take a Knoppix CD (or your preferred rescue CD) to the physical machine and boot from it. All the commands you run will be from the command line, so you can boot in to Knoppix's terminal-only mode here as well. As Knoppix boots, it should detect your partitions automatically and create mountpoints under /mnt for them, but if it doesn't, just use the mkdir command to create them manually. Knoppix will not mount partitions automatically at boot, so you need to do that manually. In the case of this example, my physical server has two partitions to mount:
$ sudo mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/sda1 $ sudo mount /dev/sda3 /mnt/sda3
Now I need to set a password for the root Knoppix user and then start the SSH server on this machine so I can run the rsync:
$ sudo passwd $ sudo /etc/init.d/ssh start
Keep in mind that because I booted this machine into Knoppix, it most likely has gotten a different IP address via DHCP. Type /sbin/ifconfig to check which IP address the machine currently has, as you will need it for the final rsync.
On the Virtual Server:
You now can start the final synchronization from the virtual server. The commands are very similar to what you used before, except this time, I add the --delete option so that rsync will remove any files on the virtual machine that were deleted from the physical machine since the last time I synced. Also notice that because the physical server is now booted in to Knoppix, I have to change the directory paths and the IP address for the remote host, as they changed since I booted in to Knoppix:
$ sudo rsync -avx --numeric-ids --progress ↪--delete 192.168.1.150:/mnt/sda1/ /mnt/sda1/ $ sudo rsync -avx --numeric-ids --progress ↪--delete 192.168.1.150:/mnt/sda3/ /mnt/sda3/
These commands could take a long time or a short time, depending on how many files have changed since the last time you ran rsync. Once it completes, you are ready to perform the final finishing touches on your virtual machine before bringing it into service.

Older Linux ext2/3 filesystem
I was able to virtualize two older RedHat system using this method though I did run into ext2/3 filesystem issues. One system was an old RedHat 5.2 (circa 1998). I was booting the VM with Knoppix V6.0 live CD and then creating the partitions and ext2 filesystem. After rsync'ing files I found I couldn't boot. This turned out to be ext2 filesystem features. The Knoppix OS created an ext2 with all the latest features but the old RedHat 5.2 predated many of these features so it didn't know how to handle them.
I rebuilt the ext2 FS with options to turn off just about every feature.
mkfs -t ext2 -O none -r0 -O ^dir_index /dev/sdxx
Then I was able to rsync and complete all steps ending with a bootable RedHat 5.2 guest VM
Thanks for the great article.
Ubuntu 8 2.6.24 kernel I had
Ubuntu 8 2.6.24 kernel
I had to use "mount --bind /dev /mnt/sda1"
then chroot /mnt/sda1
then mount /proc /proc -t proc
and used mkinitramfs -o /boot/initrd.img
Filesystem has unsupported features
After migrating an old RedHat 9 server to VMWare using this howto, I got an error saying fsck.ext3: Filesystem has unsupported features.
I've posted a description on how to solve this issue on my blog: fsck: Filesystem has unsupported features.
I hope this might be helpful for people encountering the same issue.
I ran into problems because Knoppix mounted my root partition with the nodev
option, which made the grub-install
and mkinitrd
calls fail, because the devices were not accessible. I had to change the mount-options with mount -oremount,dev,setuid /dev/sda1
Furthermore I had a problem because /var
is on a different partition (/dev/sda3)in my setup. I had to unmount this partition before chroot
-ing and had to (re-)mount in the chroot
grub install issue
I'm having some issue with grub-install, mainly the fact that the system I'm virtualizing has a raid device for the hard drive. I've tried the grub install using some soft links to map the device names and the setup (hd0) command appears to complete but the virt-manager states the disk is not bootable
any suggestions
I had similar issues because
I had similar issues because my set up has a /boot partition:
/dev/sda1 -> /boot
/dev/sda2 -> /
/dev/sda3 -> (swap)
so chroot'ing into my root, /dev/sda2, won't exactly work right since /boot is not there. Here's what I did to get it to work, using manual grub instead of grub-install:
Before you chroot into anything (while in Knoppix shell):
$ grub
grub> root (hd0,0)
grub> setup (hd0)
grub> exit
The 1st line points root to my first partition (/dev/sda1)
2nd line sets it up. What this does is set up grub on the MBR of the virtual disk.
Then, to rebuild the initrd correctly, I had to do this:
$ umount /mnt/sda1
$ mount -o remount,dev /mnt/sda2
(assuming sda2 was already mounted)
This mount command helps eliminate /dev/null problems when using the mkinitrd command later.
$ mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/sda2/boot
(This puts the boot partition into my sda2 root mount)
Now we can chroot:
$ chroot /dev/sda2
$ ls /boot
(should see the /boot partition stuff)
I had to add these to /etc/modprobe.conf in my install (I am using VMWare server 2.0.0 RC1):
alias scsi_hostadapter mptbase
alias scsi_hostadapter1 mptscsih
Now I rebuilt initrd:
Now we do the equivalent of this:
# mv /boot/initrd-2.4.21-32.0.1.ELsmp.img /boot/initrd-2.4.21-32.0.1.ELsmp.img.bak
# mkinitrd -v /boot/initrd-2.4.21-32-0.1.ELsmp.img 2.4.21-32-0.1.ELsmp
(Notice that the orig article was missing the .img in the second line)
(Also use the -v flag to see any useful errors)
I had one last problem - when I rebooted it complained the my e2fsck was too old and keep dumping me into repair mode. My install is a real old FC2, and when I used Knoppix to create the ext3 file systems, there are "new features" that the older e2fsck didn't support. So I followed these instructions and all is good:
Good luck everyone. Thank you for a great guide!
I had a problem...
Before the second and final rsync, I wanted to test if the machines goes alive, but when I do the chroot /mnt/sda, and then
# grub-install /dev/sda
it gives:
/usr/share/grub/i386-redhat/stage1: Not found
And tried:
fdisk -l (without result)
It seems that I can't have access to /var /usr /home which are other partitions
What I tried next, was to cp the files in /mnt/sda3 (/usr), to /mnt/sda1 (/) just the files in the corresponding /usr/share/grub/i386-redhat/
And the output of that command was:
/sbin/grub-install: line 501: uniq: command not found
/dev/sda: Not found or not a block device.
any advice will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
Even though
Even though the missing -H option, this is a great HOWTO, include I will be using this to migrate from one server to other and another, obviously I had never figure it out by myself... Thank you very much, And if possible, I would like to have your agreement to translate it, (and include fdisk steps) to Spanish.
rsync and hardlinks
the rsync options "-avx --numeric-ids --progress" IMHO doesn't include "-H" (hardlinks). So if a systems uses many hardlinks there will be many duplicated files.
As Linux continues to play an ever increasing role in corporate data centers and institutions, ensuring the integrity and protection of these systems must be a priority. With 60% of the world's websites and an increasing share of organization's mission-critical workloads running on Linux, failing to stop malware and other advanced threats on Linux can increasingly impact an organization's reputation and bottom line.

Most companies incorporate backup procedures for critical data, which can be restored quickly if a loss occurs. However, fewer companies are prepared for catastrophic system failures, in which they lose all data, the entire operating system, applications, settings, patches and more, reducing their system(s) to "bare metal." After all, before data can be restored to a system, there must be a system to restore it to.
In this one hour webinar, learn how to enhance your existing backup strategies for better disaster recovery preparedness using Storix System Backup Administrator (SBAdmin), a highly flexible bare-metal recovery solution for UNIX and Linux systems.

Serena Williams saved family honour after her elder sister, defending champion Venus, stumbled on the opening day of the Sony Ericsson Championships.
Duelling with Russian Dinara Safina for the tenuous world No.1 ranking, Serena beat Svetlana Kuznetsova 7-6 (8-6), 7-5 in her first group match at the year-end championship.
Venus choked while serving for a straight-set victory to open the door for Russian Elena Dementieva's 3-6, 7-6 (8-6), 6-2 victory.
The Maroon group round-robin win was the first in that series for Dementieva since 2005 and ended a run of seven straight losses to the five-time Wimbledon champion American. The Russian stands 4-10 in the series.
Dementieva broke more ground as she played in her 22nd match at a season wrap-up event, overcoming 15 double-faults as her old serving demons returned in the struggle for two hours and 40 minutes.
Williams saved match points on her own serve in the seventh game of the third set but couldn't stop Dementieva from serving out the victory.
Williams looked to have the win in hand, leading by a set and 6-5. But a double-fault threw her Russian opponent a lifeline, with Dementieva taking the set into a tiebreaker.
Venus opponent saved three set points, but a fourth Williams' double-fault brought on the deciding third set.
Dementieva was pleased with her own fortitude. "It's such a long time since I've beaten her. I'm happy about it," she said. "I just fought for every point. It was very emotional."
Both Williams sisters must next play in group matches, which promises to be a survival situation for both this week. Serena Williams was due to try to save family honour when she faced Russian Svetlana Kuznetsova, the French Open champion.
Off-form Jelena Jankovic lost serve five times as the former number one took a 6-2, 6-3 loss against Victoria Azarenka. The Serb fell to 0-1 in the White group, with Miami winner Azarena taking command after her victory in less than 90 minutes.
"I basically gave her everything," said Jankovic. "I beat myself. I was just a shadow of myself. Sometimes you want to play your best, but it just doesn't happen. I just hope I can play better tomorrow, and I'll keep trying my best in this whole competition."
Azarenka was having none of the head games: "I'm glad she wasn't in the mood. It worked out fine for me. I haven't played in a tournament for a while," said the second-round loser a fortnight ago in Beijing. "I felt pretty good out there."
Last week in Moscow, Jankovic scraped into the last spot in the eight-woman field at the year-end event but had little to show on court.
Azarenka took her second win from five matches against Jankovic as the Serb committed 33 unforced errors. The 20-year-old winner, ranked sixth, served out the victory without an ace but lost serve only once.

One of the most powerful Crimson Lord that Shana and Yuji fight with. He´s a remarkably skilled assassin that enjoys killing his prey, as long as he gets paid, and doesn't care if they are humans, flame hazes or denizens.
Sabrac is a powerful Crimson Lord who has won in numerous battles against Flame Haze. He is an assassin, usually seen receiving requests to kill a certain target of interest.
He likes to make long fancy-talk speeches, and while he is seen dissatisfied many times, it is hard to see him in a wrath. His hobby is collecting bladed weapons, from swords to katanas, whether they are Treasure Tools or not, and he actively use them in his fights.
He wears black clothes, a cape, a mask to cover his face and also a leather-bandage. His hair is black and his eyes are illustrated with narrow eyes with a red glowing light.
He has a mission to kill Yuji, and made his entrance in a quite shocking way, injuring everyone with his special surprise attack. This power of Unrestraint leaves a wound that keeps growing with time, so even if you survived you´ll be in grave danger, however this surprise attack can only be performed ones and hopefully for Yuji, Shana and Wilhelmina they had acquired their own response against the devastating effect of this attack, the healing power of Unrestraint developed by the very own creator of the Reiji Maigo, and old friend of Wilhelmina, who had ironically deceased by Sabrac´s attack. But even after nullifying Sabrac´s first attempt to kill them, he was still a very powerful opponent and drove Wilhelmina and Shana to their edge, no matter what they did he seemed immortal. It was Yuji the one that discovered Sabrac´s secret, his true form wasn´t that of the skilled ninja fighting with them, his full body was hidden in the underground of the hole Misaki city, so thanks to the help of Margery Daw they could separate both parts of Sabrac and blast him with an ultimate attack. However Sabrac was badly injured but not completely eliminated because he was fast enough to scape at the last minute leaving them for the moment.

Specialtyâs Cafe and Bakery Serves Up Targeted Communications with the WebDT Signage System
Several Specialtyâs Café and Bakery locations in California have deployed the WebDT Signage Appliances for digital menu board applications paired with 42â? displays, also mounted in the dining areas to engage customers.
Dynamic Signage Informs and Entertains Customers
SAN JOSE, Calif., – February 22, 2010 – DT Researchâ¢, Inc., an industry leader in the development of information appliances for vertical markets, today announced the deployment of the WebDT Signage System at Specialtyâs Cafe and Bakery stores. The combination of robust WebDT Signage Appliances and flexible WebDT Content Manager software enables targeted communications to customers at Specialtyâs Café and Bakery locations, driving sales and building the Specialtyâs brand.
Several Specialtyâs Café and Bakery locations in California have deployed the WebDT SA1000 signage appliances for digital menu board applications paired with 42â? displays behind service counters with images of the current menu offering. Digital menu boards have maximized the space efficiency, using the same space for the breakfast menus and lunch menus, with a scheduled content change at the specified time of day. The WebDT SA3000 signage appliances are paired with 42â? displays mounted in the dining areas to engage customers with multimedia content such as video, flash, and images. The dining area content drives sales for catering, specials, and other products and services, and at the same time ingrains the Specialtyâs brand by inviting customers to connect on social networking sites.
The WebDT Signage Appliances are managed with the WebDT Content Manager software, enabling Specialtyâs Café and Bakery to efficiently navigate the layout design and scheduling of their menus and consumer communication. Content is updated using any internet browser and can be managed locally or in a central location. The marketing team at Specialtyâs Café and Bakery can now enhance the dining experience for guests while saving the time and costs associated with constantly changing menus and printing promotions.
Digital signage provides value in the food services market, increasing revenues with the flexibility to target messages to specific times of day and quickly change menus, prices and promotions.
âWith digital signage we are able to better communicate our brand and enhance the dining experience for our customersâ? commented Angela Pace, vice president of marketing at Specialtyâs. âWe are already beginning to see the value generated by these screens in the sites where we have rolled out the solution and expect this to continue as we expand and install digital signage in our stores.â?
Specialtyâs Café and Bakery, with over 20 years of successful operation, has 27 stores throughout California, Washington State and Chicago and provides made-from-scratch baked goods, handcrafted sandwiches, organic salads and wholesome soups. This concept is typically located in urban business districts or suburban business centers, and operates 5-days per week during the morning, noontime and afternoon hours.
The WebDT Signage System provides the tools needed to enhance customer engagement at fast-casual and other food service businesses. With the reliability of well-integrated hardware and software from one manufacturer, and the flexibility to deliver a partial or total solution, the WebDT Signage System is lowering the barrier to entry for a digital signage network for the markets with scalable solutions that offer the ultimate usability.

The WebDT family of products is based on thin computing platforms for secure, reliable, and cost-effective computing.

I'm seriously hoping that her unique mechanics are really unique, because her look just isn't doing it for me.
Senior Member
Im worried she takes the same visual space as Vayne.. (as in it might be easy to mistake her for Vayne in bot lane...)
This is the Hour
I think she looks pretty sweet and I'm actually excited about her, which is more than I can say for any of the champs that have been released since I started playing. She'll be an insta-buy on release if she seems at least decent.
Blakk Majikk
Noooo now that I hear that Quinn was going to originally be a man, I can't help but want a male crossbow-wielding ranger. Why do you do this to me Ironstyluuuuuus?! Gonna buy and play Quinn regardless since I love the theme, but I guess I just feel there isn't a male ranger archetype in LoL yet. Varus is iffy because a large part of his theme is corruption.
i dont really care as long as the skillset is good

We think the beggars are being drawn to you Giles because of your new designer stubble 'vagrant' look! xx
Big Kind Bears
That aside, the pandas were obviously the star attraction and I never thought I'd get so up close and personal with them - the pictures are nothing short of brilliant and funny. Only a few days left here in Xi'an now, must do some more bargaining at the Muslim markets before we go - just today I knocked the price of a genuine (ahem) Hilfiger jumper from 875 down to 170, and Sam got a deal and a half with her Abercrombie hoodie. Quite a buzz the haggling part!! The only downside is the amount of cripples and homeless begging all the time, they won't leave me alone and Sam gets annoyed when I tell them to go away, and there's no chance of trying to blend in so they avoid us...
Sam: Aw the pandas so so cute, but also knew what they wanted- bamboo. I didnt know that they only have pandas in china, because they only eat bamboo. Like Giles said the living conditions of the other animals in the sanctuary was quite sad, i don't believe it was temporary- not with the money they make from western tourists going to the sanctuary.We still had a lovely day though. It was a nice change from temples! Love the hostel we're in, they are all so friendly and helpful. Especially love the terrecota warrior themed bar! There are alot of beggars which strangely seem attracted towards giles (i find his reaction to them highly amusing!) Im suffering western guilt, especially today when a very young girl approached us begging while we were having a starbucks. Enjoyed lunch in the muslim market for 30p and really enjoying my new abercrombie jumper for 110Y bargained down from 400Y. They admittedly are taking the piss out of a western couple with some of their asking prices. There reaction to bargaining is hilarious "i give you good price'' " i give you good price" they love saying that armed with their calculator! You'll all be pleased to hear Giles is finally getting over his cold, it was touch and touch for a while...
Much love, Gam and Siles xxx
Awwwwwwwwwwwwwwww..... Not as cute as bagpuss or roofie I bet?!
So lovely talking to you earlier - we miss our little dancing queen and her fatty fatty toad boy xxx
Mum was wondering if your 30p lunch at the muslim market is connected with your current tummy troubles? xxx
Re: Diarrhoea
No where near as cute as Bagpuss! Im convinced that my 30p lunch is connected to my tummy troubles, won't be doing that again!! xxxx Lovely talking to you all too x
Big kind bears
Lucky panda-watchers! How lovely - and they do look so round and cuddly! Good bargains from the markets - well done! Glad your cold is better Giles and also pleased to hear the hostel is so good and friendly. Would be nice to talk soon. Take care both of you, and continue to enjoy. Love Mum. Susie and Tessa x

Salsa Dancing into the Digital Economy
Colombia's national soccer team famously taught the world how to properly celebrate a World Cup goal; now the nation is poised to teach the world a thing or two about innovation. In 2010, Colombia's Ministry of Information Technologies and Communications (MinTIC) devised a plan to connect 27 million people, or more than half of its population, to the Internet by 2018. This plan, called Vive Digital, has had many accomplishments, which include increasing the number of Colombia's Broadband Internet connections from 2.2 million to more than 8.2 million. In the past four years, the Colombian government has reduced the barriers for adoption of broadband technologies, efforts that brought computers and tablets to schools and created a robust network for digital entrepreneurs. MinTIC has also poured investment into Internet infrastructure, and is in the process of extending fiber-optic Internet access to 96 percent of the country's municipalities—many of which are isolated in remote areas.
The man behind these aggressive efforts is the minister of MinTIC, Diego Molano Vega.
Mr. Molano wants to solve what he says is his country's most important problem: poverty. In an interview … Read the rest
Unsubstantiated attacks on the Ex-Im Bank fail to take flight
A recent review by the Wall Street Journal of a Standard & Poor's (S&P) credit analysis of Boeing in relation to the U.S. Export-Import (Ex-Im) Bank appears to have missed the point. The article sums up the report with the quote, "We don't believe that the expiration of Ex-Im's authorization in September would hurt Boeing's credit quality or ability to make planned deliveries in 2014 and 2015." However, this ignores the fact that this statement relates only to planes already in production being prepared for delivery. S&P goes on to conclude that alternative financing sources would not be able to match the demand for Boeing airplanes, and that Boeing would lose out on new orders of aircraft. In addition, it states that the effect of an Ex-Im Bank dissolution on Boeing's credit quality would be significant, especially in sales to emerging markets or to start-up and financially weak airlines. Judging by 2014 data, Boeing's new financing needs would total between $7 billion and $9 billion if it lost the support of the Ex-Im Bank.
This 'misunderstanding' seems to stem from a desire to portray the Ex-Im Bank—which has been quietly … Read the rest
No, Immigrants are Not Stealing Our Jobs
It doesn't take long to get the drift of a new report from the Center for Immigration Studies, a non-partisan, anti-immigration think tank. The title basically sums it up: "All Employment Growth Since 2000 Went to Immigrants." The only question left to the reader is, why they didn't simply title it "Immigrants stole all of our jobs"?
Perhaps it's because immigrants didn't steal our jobs, and the authors have no evidence that they did, but they're doing their best to insinuate that they do.
Their main findings certainly look surprising at first blush: immigrant employment has increased significantly since 2000, but native employment has not increased at all, despite the fact that native population has increased twice as much as immigrant employment. It seems like a closed case: all the new jobs went to immigrants, therefore we should decrease immigration.
If only it were that simple. As intuitive as it might seem to argue that a job is a job and an unemployed person is an unemployed person, this is not how economies work. The Center makes a mistake common to many casual observers of the labor market: what economists … Read the rest
STEM Immigrants Help Raise Local Wages
The H-1B visa program, which allows a limited number of high-skilled workers to work in the United States temporarily, is controversial because some claim that it lowers wages for high-skilled workers. However, a new paper by Peri, Shih, and Sparber of UC Davis and Colgate University shows just the opposite—that additional H-1B visa recipients raise wages in cities where they come to work.
The authors' interest in immigration is a side effect of their interest in a more general labor market question: they use fluctuations in high-skill immigration due to the H-1B visa program as an instrument to examine whether the supply of STEM workers affects productivity growth. In essence the question is, what happens when you increase the amount of high-skill STEM workers: do wages fall as one would assume in a standard supply/demand framework? Or do they increase because of the effect that the high-skill workers have on productivity, demand for innovative workers, and economic growth?
To answer this question you can't simply look at the amount of STEM workers in a city and average wages for those workers, because you can't tell which way causality is going. … Read the rest
If Manufacturing Employment is Dead Then Take a Look at China's Zombie Apocalypse
Policy-making relies on narratives, and narratives often come from data. Or claim that they do. One story often told by economists—by everyone from Dani Rodrik to Erik Brynjolfsson and Andrew McAfee to James Kynge to Laurence Summers—is that China's manufacturing sector has been shedding workers since the mid-1990s. This story leads us to believe that something like this is happening:
This argument ends up as a morality tale with serious policy implications: if even China, manufacturing powerhouse with wages developed countries cannot hope to compete with, is losing manufacturing jobs, then surely manufacturing jobs are obsolete and the U.S. is foolish to try to maintain them—let alone get them back.
Unfortunately, this story is based on a gross misreading of inaccurate evidence. There are three major problems. First, even based on a simplistic look at the data, it's flat out wrong. Take a look at this chart that shows the actual manufacturing employment in China. (You may note that this chart only goes back to 1998, and that the peak of employment underlying most claims was in 1996—more on that in a bit.)
Strangely enough this graph looks nothing … Read the rest
Congress Should Extend Bonus Depreciation
Since after the Great Recession Congress has put in place temporary bonus depreciation for new capital investment. Given the current state of the economy, already high levels of corporate taxation, and the need for additional investment, Congress should renew bonus depreciation for at least another year.
As ITIF recently wrote, American companies already face the highest statutory tax rates in the developed world. Their effective tax rates also tend to be high, partially because they are taxed on their worldwide income. Bonus depreciation, which temporarily allows companies to deduct equipment purchases faster than they otherwise could, partially offsets this. But the current provision expired at the end of last year.
Faster depreciation reduces the economic cost of new equipment, thereby spurring more investment. It does not reduce the total taxes paid by a company, but it does delay them. The benefit to companies exceeds the cost to the government because the latter can borrow at much lower rates. Higher investment also benefits the broader economy by increasing productivity and creating jobs.
Bonus depreciation also helps align tax liability with actual profits. Accounting methods require companies to write off equipment … Read the rest
Bring Back our National Statistics
The Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) is considering cutting more of its data reports, this time weighing the elimination of Import-Export Pricing Data. Far from saving tax-payers money, the potential cut will hobble the ability for both our government and our exporters to have the information they need to innovate and compete in a changing global marketplace.
The BLS's Import-Export Pricing is a valuable part of its Price and Cost of Living report. The report collects data on goods entering and exiting the country and the prices of those goods by polling U.S. companies. The data gives producers vital information on trends in world prices and provides the public with information on U.S. inflation, economic output, and the overall well-being and competitiveness of American business.
Unfortunately, eliminating Import-Export Pricing is not an isolated example of the government's growing information crisis. Across the board, budget cuts and sequestration has severely reduced efforts by the BLS, the Bureau of Economic Analysis, the National Science Foundation, the Department of Labor, and the Department of Commerce to produce timely and high-quality data to assess traded sector competitiveness. The BLS has already eliminated its … Read the rest
Krugman Wrong on the Trans-Pacific Partnership, Again
A Paul Krugman op-ed in The New York Times today, "No Big Deal," incorrectly argues that completing a trans-pacific trade pact would be of little consequence to the U.S. economy. Rather, successfully concluding The Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP), which includes 12 Asia-Pacific region countries—Australia, Brunei, Canada, Chile, Japan, Malaysia, Mexico, New Zealand, Peru, Singapore, Vietnam, and the United States—is vitally important to the U.S. economy and to future global economic integration, as ITIF argues in Concluding a High-Standard, Innovation-Maximizing TPP Agreement.
Krugman argues that the "glory days" of trade deals are over, in part because previous trade pacts significantly reduced many countries' tariff levels, such that "there just isn't much more protectionism to eliminate."
Unfortunately this line of thinking fails to acknowledge the pernicious and growing impact of NON-TARIFF barriers (NTBs) on innovation industries. These barriers include a range of unfair and distortionary practices, such as inadequate intellectual protections on foreign intellectual property (IP), restrictions on trade in services, barriers to digital trade and cross-border data flows, currency and standards manipulation, and localization barriers to trade—policies that mandate local production or the transfer of technology or intellectual property … Read the rest
Government Shutdown Damages U.S. Energy Innovation
The federal government has officially shutdown as of midnight, October 1st, 2013 due to Congress's failure to pass a budget. The 2013 fiscal year ends on September 30th and the government required a new budget to continue operations. The government has been operating on a Continuing Resolution – a CR, or an extension of the previous years budget, since 2012.
While coverage of the shutdown will focus on the political circus that is fueling it and the thousands furloughed from their jobs, it is also important to note that it is directly impacting America's overall energy innovation capacity. In the short-term, many of the nation's premier energy innovation institutions will scale-down or shutdown completely, while a few will continue to operate using carryover funds. That means the longer the shutdown drags on, the less research America will produce, and the fewer next-gen energy technologies and fundamental scientific discoveries. In other words, a prolonged shutdown threatens overall U.S. international competitiveness and progress towards a low-carbon advanced energy system.
Specifically, the following energy-related institutions and programs are being directly impacted by the government shutdown:

Balancing Innovation: Managing Current Needs with Future Success in Developing Countries
No one disputes the benefits of innovative technology. It has resulted in IT, medical, and energy advancements that have revolutionized the way we live our lives. What often goes unappreciated, however, is the time and resources invested that ultimately yields this progress. As I discussed on Friday as part of a panel at the Global Intellectual Property Center's IP Summit, failing to acknowledge and respect intellectual property puts future innovation in jeopardy, and it is critically important that we educate developing countries on the benefits of protecting IP before it has lasting effects on not just the global innovation economy, but their own individual innovation economies
At a time when developing countries are not only trying to recover from the Great Recession, but also working toward building more prosperous economies, access to innovation is increasingly important. Unfortunately, all too often developing countries believe that to achieve their economic and social goals, they must focus on getting access to technologies (including pharmaceutical products, sometimes through issuing compulsory licenses) in the near-term, instead of setting up an environment of strong IP protection where innovation can flourish over the long-term. These actions are … Read the rest

The much talked about news of AOL going into Blogging is good news in spreading the blogosphere gospel and in providing competition to blogging giant Google. The Blog Herald wishes AOL all the best but hopes it doesn't follow its success in managing Netscape. Many will argue that Netscape was a dead duck before AOL became involved, however AOL's track record in new areas, in particular outside the United States (the Australian ISP market and the AOL7 alliance comes to mind) does not bide well for its new blogging project.

Wonderful news from Ana these days...after taking her chance against a wild-card Witthoeft (16 y.o., current and career-high #788) and beating her 7:5, 6:2 in QR1 of a Premier WTA tournament in Stuttgart, today she beat a much better known opponent, Zarina Diyas (former junior prodigy, took out Jankovic last year in Baku if I remember correctly...), it was 6:4, 7:5. A very nice nice scoreline, considering Diyas is at her best ever ranking of 143.
For a place in the main draw, Ana will play the winner of the 6th seed Hampton and unseeded K. Kucova. Considering she lost in QR1 last year, she's already done a great job cause she's sure to jump about 10 ranking spots, but it could be 5 more if she'd qualify.

Movie Guide
Director: Pedro Almodóvar. With Gael García Bernal, Fele Martínez, Lluis Homar, Daniel Giménez Cacho. (105 min.)
Sterritt *** Reading a story by a childhood friend, a movie director relives a complicated past of love and sexual abuse at a Franco-era parochial school. Spain's most important living filmmaker isn't at his very best in this complicated tale, but it raises still-timely questions well worth pondering. In Spanish with subtitles.
Director: Samuel Fuller. With Lee Marvin, Mark Hamill, Robert Carradine, Stéphane Audran. (163 min.)
Sterritt *** A crusty old sergeant herds his Army unit through a string of World War II adventures. Reissued with the addition of 50 minutes trimmed from the original 1980 cut, Fuller's only A-budget movie is still among the lesser works of this frequently brilliant filmmaker.
Director: Shola Lynch. With Shirley Chisholm, Ronald Dellums, Susan Brownmiller, Amiri Baraka. (76 min.)
Sterritt **** Documentary about the only African-American woman to make a serious run for the US presidency. Hearing her speak her finely honed mind in unscripted, un-"handled" terms is worth the price of admission in itself.
Director: Wong Kar-Wai. With Maggie Cheung, Tony Leung, Leslie Cheung, Andy Lau. (89 min.)
Sterritt **** A loose-living man, an ordinary waitress, and a wandering cop-turned-sailor are among the characters of this moody, brilliantly filmed Hong Kong drama. It's inexplicable that Wong's early masterpiece has been virtually absent from American screens since he completed it in 1991. In Cantonese with subtitles.
Director: Ron Mann. With Woody Harrelson, Natalie Merchant, Steve Clark, Dave Matthews. (78 min.)

The city's filmmakers have urged the government to act fast to revive the declining local film industry or face the demise of Hong Kong cinema. Industry professionals issued the call in the light of Ang Lee's latest Oscars victory as best director. Taiwan-born Lee thanked the city government of Taichung, west-central Taiwan, on Monday for raising NT$50 million (HK$13 million) to help build the site where most of his winning work, Life of Pi, was filmed. Compared with Taiwan, the Hong Kong government lacked flexibility and vision in its support of the movie industry, allowing a rigid funding framework to get in the way, local players said. Culture-sector lawmaker Ma Fung-kwok, a former film producer, said Hong Kong was unfocused in its support, a problem that was shown up by Lee's case. "The [Hong Kong] government is not enthusiastic enough." The government supports film projects and related work through its Film Development Fund, which offers grants to small and medium-sized productions. Since 2007, the fund has backed 22 film productions and 79 related projects as of October last year, approving funding of HK$320 million. Film Awards Association director Tenky Tin Kai-man said the government could be more proactive in its support. "But the industry needs to be clear about what we want, so that we can change the current support framework," Tin said. Canto-pop star and award-winning actor Leon Lai Ming has reservations about excessive direct government support.

Who Murdered Chaucer? lays its cards on the table right off. In the first sentence of the introduction the authors admit that "this book is less of a Whodunnit? than a Wasitdunnatall?" In other words, the murder referred to in the title may very well not have occurred, which makes this hefty, beautifully illustrated volume a very long shaggy-dog story.— The New York Times
