General Question
How do women get away with this?
Asked by LostInParadise (18930
November 29th, 2008
I am okay with the fact that women are allowed to touch a guy acquaintance's arm or other non-erogenous zone but for guys it is strictly hands off. Lately though I have noticed young women slipping their hand down their jeans front pocket. Is that the reason for the pocket? Am I being Puritanical in thinking that behavior is improper? Imagine the reaction to a guy who did that.

what is a world power ?
One that can influence events in the world. One that can change regimes in a minor power , right or wrong.
China is a long way fom this point .
Could China have carried out a regime change in any part of Africa , Latin America , or Asia ?
Can China get Iran to change it's policy on Nuclear technology ?
IF say, it wanted to do so ?
When will the average Chinese have the same standard of living as the average American?
Never , I hear you say ?
How old (Average age) will China be in 20 years time , compared to America ?
Hold old is Japan now.
I have vivid memories of 1991-1995 when the japanese were starting to think the same ( Our economy will be bigger then America etc etc etc )
Will I be saying the same about China in 20 years time ?
Obama is attempting to undue the anti Chinese rhetoric of the right in the U.S. of the past 50 years. China is a partner in trade with the West today and though we might not like their domestic lack of individual freedoms, such ideas are foreign to China and are not a historic part of their sensibility. I understand that civil strife is anathema to them and thus, it is not appropriate for a foreign leader to go to this giant and powerful nation and have the audacity to tell them how to run their internal policies. He did the right thing in my opinion. China and the U.S. are tied together in a way that promises that there will be peaceful coexistence and competition and also cooperation and this is indeed, the new world order that everyone was talking about when the Berlin Wall came down but it turns out to be China and the U.S. and Russia is nowhere to be seen. It works for me. Eventually China will educate sufficient numbers of people that they evolve into a techno state with more openness than today. It is a slow evolution and it will be self accelerating with no help from abroad which to the contrary would make the leadership very nervous and thus suppressive. Do business and mind your business in other words...Obama did very well.
The U.S. is a declining world power. China is an emerging world superpower. It is inevitable.

Well, OK, and thanks so much for enlightening us turnip farmers. Perhaps you should come home, assuming you're an American, and get a taste of how it goes here.
It's not all about China, or any other country, but rather, America. Obama is showing that he is a fool who doesn't deserve to be President. It might be much more beneficial for our nation if he stopped swanning around in Air Force One, hand waving to all the local folk abroad.
I spend most of my time in Europe, where he's almost become a joke. French women still like him because he's "cute." The Germans just shook their collective head when he "won" the Nobel Peace Price.
To repeat, why don't you forgo the $83K tax break given to US expats, and reacquaint yourself with the motherland. And, oh-by-the-way, I also served several Embassy tours and speak Arabic and French. And I do dispute your lengthy monologue.
President Obama is a consumate diplomat. When he visits other countries he tries to abide by the customs of those countries. We can't expect him to show up in China and expect the Chinese President to kneel before him just like we shouldn't expect the Chinese president to kneel before Obama in Washington. They shake hands, they sit down, they talk about their problems as equals on the world stage.
And yes, it is about the G2 sorry Europe. China and the US are going to shape the future of the world with India and Brazil. Russia will enter into an aggressive oil and gas price war with Europe - that's your problem.
I didn't vote for this President but I support him. He doesn't appear to be selling the farm overseas which I'm glad about. I'm glad we're not signing anything at Copenhaggen. We should tell the Europeans that the REAL climate conference occurred between the US and China on this trip.
Good Job Mr. President. Get some more jobs at home. I'm open to voting for you on the next election.
About the only snafu I recall is when Michelled Obama touched the Queen of England. That's
The way that Obama behaved is also indicative of the falling power of USA. Fighting 2 wars, huge debts, double digit unemplymt and a festering economic crisis have all sapped the US strength. So let's not heap too much blame on Obama. But lez not forget that Dems also have cozied up to China. Not that the Reps are that much different but atleast u have the neocons who very strongly believe in Democracy. US foreign policy has a "continuity" and is not decided by Prez alone IMO.
Does the Economist expect the US President to thump his chest and say here I come from the greatest and most powerful land on earth to teach you a thing or two so you fall in line with what we consider best and most suited to your people.Most visits by heads of state are like changing oil for the car. yes it is intended t simply keep the machinery of trade and advantage swapping going.Rhetoric and sweeping statements will not help improve his image either at home or the world at large.
This is a severe phase of strain and introspection for the US both economics and foreign policy vise.I saw a piece in one of the papers this morning about how he impressed people by being simply Obama,walking down the steps of Air force one in the rain with an open umbrella and no side kicks doing the job.Humility has to go with power and this Obama has as character. Overall the trip has been successful and all kinds of analysis will follow just to keep the press grinding and the experts thinking and talking as if they were M.Obama.
I doubt whether the Chinese handling of the visit was a sign of nervousness on the part of its leadership. Rather, it is a sign of a fundamental instinct of the Chinese state - to control and micromanage all matters to ensure the acheivement of an objective.
The objective of this visit (from the Chinese government's point of view) would have been to symbolize the cementing of the so called G-2 and, by extension, its elevation to a status of equal partnership with the US. That being the objective, the script was tailored accordingly so that there would be no room for disruption.
Those of us who live in politically freer countries are used to myriad interest groups and their attempts to disrupt the agenda of others in order to promote their own. We tolerate and support their right to do so, inpite of the resultant chaos and wastage, because of our belief in the long term sustainability of such an arrangement.
The Chinese government has conciously followed an alternate path where primacy has been accorded to the certainty of authority. This system has served them well for the last 30 odd years, as they are unlikely to have made the strides they have managed under a different system.
Whether this system continues to serve China well time will tell. Till then the Chinese state's resorting to draconian controls and intolerance of dissent is not a sign of nervousness, but of self confidence in this tried and tested system.
That's quite some baggage you are carrying Liu wen yi. Looting, pilfering, pandemics, white supremacy. So, if I'm catching your drift, you don't like the West. Pandemic alcoholism in Canada you say? It's a wonder I can even type this message without falling from my perch. Prost!
Liu wen yi, the kind of blind optimism of people like you is very hazardous to the health of the country. can I ask you a question? which part of China do you live in since you speak in the status of a Chinese? btw, I live in BJ, and never lived in or traveled to NA or EU.
Long long ago Napoleon told to world"when this sleeping Dragon awake,he will swallow the whole world", now China awaken and imposing his whims on world.Mighty America bow before and accepted that Barak Omaba reject to meet Dalai Lama.He accepted other conditions of China.Might Is always right.Really speaking China occupied Tibet unlawfully, Obama consented that Tibet is part of China.In future what kind of terms and conditions China impose on world that may be very interesting drama, we can watch.
So...you say he's weak.
Weak and not demanding are not equal.
But what he did was keep more peace than between 2 men.
China's poor, right now would love any excuse for backlashes.
China's poor are many and the country will hopefully do better...yes.
But Obama kept more than peace between presidents, or countries.
Lets say he demanded and debated just like Clinton.
Say Obama acted as if top in that Bush-class of demand-policy.
What would happen is more than China's leadership loosing face.
There would be Obama who's loved, seen as giving permission to violence.
When that Chinese violence is started...it will come in millions.
And nobody...not anyone should want that or try to start that when China is aware and will do their best when China's poor are so many.
Also, when at war, the idea of the US leading the world is not by example.
But if not example, then wording also is hypocrisy.
The hypocrite view of the USA preaching human rights in todays setting is dry preaching, no matter the eloquence.
Todays USA--actions speak louder...all the more so when our choice of words are critisism.
Obama's charm offensive is all he has. This man has no experience in leadership of any kind.His approval rating here in the US sunk to a new low of 48% today, his stimulus plan an abject failure , his bailouts went to the unions when there should have been restructuring under bankruptcy and now he and his liberal Democratic Congress are trying to shove a health care bill down the throats of the country who does not want it instead of just fixing the parts that are wrong and getting some help to those who can't afford insurance. The American public sees a man bent on controlling much of our society and taking away the freedom that we cherish.Now he has been fool enough to want to try the terrorists of 911 in civil court instead of military tribunals where it belongs. The public outcry is huge and all across the country.This is a totally inept administration and Obama has fooled a lot of people especially in Europe. The emperor has no clothes.
The man is an empty suit .The Spectator cover says it quite nicely indeed . The Chicom's have taken his measure and will go their own way , as they would have done anyway , but now know they are dealing with a dope in so doing .It may be a v. bumpy three years as this plays out.
Even the Economist cannot fake a summary paragraph of what is said by Obama when he says nothing so beautifully.
The world & America are finally discovering that the real substance of President Obama is a whole lot of sweet talk, but very little substantive action. Unlike the confident early 20th Century president Teddy Roosevelt ("speak softly but carry a large stick", President Obama talks frequently and eloquently, but carries only a small feather duster. All he does is move dust around a little, like children moving a disliked food round and round their plate. Face it, folks, he's a soft-spoken do-gooder who will abet the Democratic Congress' spending the U.S. into fiscal oblivion. One must take some serious puffs of HOPE-IUM if one is to believe that he will be anything other than a one-term president. And the CHANGE he will leave behind will be the pennies remaining in the U.S. Treasury.
If any of you fine writers at The Economist Magazine, its overseas agents, its investors, (et al) or its readers have spent half a century in diplomatic operations between Asia and the West, you are cordially invited to disagree and attempt abusing me on Facebook. (Chalmers Wood, Nanjing) But I suggest the West would be wise to start heroically, magnificently and with near God-Like Enlightenment resisting its current habit of complaining in full-throated & Royal Drury Lane burlesque theatre about all giddy tea cup nit-pick issues Chinese. (And find other ways to feed yourselves) With America now featuring staggering debt (see leader!) and spreading citizen hunger, etc, and Britain, well, uh, enjoying its Train Spotting, and both having failed in Iraq re its stated aims at that war's start, wouldn't it be JUST WONDERFUL (re Monty Python) if the West finally started Being Ernest? I live in Nanjing and found the CCTV run-up & coverage of Obama's visit to be inspiring re its welcoming theme. As a Westerner here, its embarrassing when my fellow native English speakers "back home" keep making such abysmal fools of them selves in front of my well-fed, prospering, healthy, and eager-to-be-friends-with-the-West Chinese friends, co-workers, students, partners, and generous paymasters. Obama had it right, petrifickation here was not in evidence, and 2030-years-of-experienced welcoming diplomacy was. OK, folks?

Calling __ioremap() with the appropriate flags should allow you to set the 'C' bits.

by Robyn Griggs Lawrence, Editor at Large
Last month, the American Cleaning Institute, a manufacturer's trade group that represents most detergent companies, enacted a voluntary reduction in dishwasher detergent phosphate levels. Following the lead of 16 states—Illinois, Indiana, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, Montana, New Hampshire, Ohio, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Utah, Vermont, Virginia, Washington and Wisconsin—the trade group called for its manufacturers to lower limits for phosphate levels from 9 percent to 0.5 percent.
Phosphates were originally added to soften water so dishwasher detergents could work better. Without the phosphates, minerals in the water supply combine with the formula's surfactant cleaning agents to create a greasy soap scum that clogs dishwashers and doesn't clean dishes as well. Unfortunately, once phosphates are washed down the drain, they make their way into local water supplies where they wreak havoc on ecosystems. Algae feast on excess phosphates, creating an algae bloom. Eventually the algae deplete their food source and die, at which point bacteria move in to feast on the algae remains. As they do so, they consume all the water's oxygen, leaving dead zones and killing off fish and other marine wildlife.
The thing is, we don't need phosphates. Seventh Generation has been passing out its phosphate-free dishwasher detergent for years to prove that point. Let's hope soon they'll have more company.

Far Downs
Revision as of 19:07, 25 March 2011 by Dwarf Lord (Talk | contribs)
Far Downs | |
Physical Description | |
Type | Hills |
Location | Central Eriador, west of the White Downs east of the Tower Hills |
Realms | Arnor The Shire |
Inhabitants | Elves, Men, then Hobbits |
Description | A hilly region where the Hobbit town of Greenholm is located |
The Far Downs were the downlands that marked the western borders of the Shire, forty leagues (120 miles) west from the Brandywine Bridge. Of their geography almost nothing is known, except that the town of Greenholm seems to have been built among the Downs. It was from here that Fastred of Greenholm came, the first Warden of Westmarch that lay between the Far Downs and, still further westward, the Tower Hills.

There is no point in trying to reason with morons on this site.
I am glad I am not in that world. That is not ideal. It is batshit crazy.
Making LibreOffice able to be that much closer to being a truly portable app. Having any Java code takes away from that quite a bit.
No shit. This is Phoronix. Mostly clueless idiots. So many butthurt Linux idiots.
Hilarious for a site full of trolls.
I have been saying this for years.
The GPUs definitely support 3D. They support up to Direct3D 9. Having a Mesa driver to support OpenGL 3.x and some newer bits from OpenGL 4.x would be great for these systems.
What an irrelevant question. It doesn't matter.
Same old Phoronix.

It isn't stealing when we're giving the code away for everyone to use as they please.

I'm not going to read the whole thread but it is common for many other threads on Phoronix. It is what this site is known for.
You're putting words in my mouth and sounding crazy as hell.
One of the dumbest posts I have ever seen.
LOL. You mean like the GPL zealots continually attacking other licenses for not respecting their freedom? Are you that deluded?
That is pretty obvious but the GPL zealots seem to have a hard time grasping the obvious.
To you it is. To me it is not. To me and a lot of developers even outside of companies the ability to do whatever I want / need to do with the code is considerably more important. This affects more...

It was 21 months ago that Ethiopia completed withdrawing its troops from Somalia. Already, other nations in the region are asking Ethiopia to send its troops back in. Ethiopia is the only one in the region (if not in Africa, with the possible exception of South Africa) who can handle the Somali gunmen. Somalis and Ethiopians have been neighbors, and at war with each other, for centuries. While the Ethiopians have learned how to deal with the Somalis, they would rather not. It's a nasty business, and these days you get accused of war crimes if you are too good at it for too long.
In January 2009, several hundred heavily armed members of al Shabaab seized control of Baidoa, long the headquarters for the Transitional National Government (TNG). For the TNG and al Shabaab, control of anything is largely symbolic. The loss of Baidoa caused the TNG to move to Mogadishu (the traditional national capital and largest city in Somalia). The TNG represents an attempt by the traditional Somali power brokers to get along with each other and form a government. That has not worked very well. Al Shabaab represents the efforts of one Islamic radical faction to take over the entire country and establish an Islamic dictatorship. That won't work either, if only because there are several other factions of Islamic radicals competing with al Shebab. And if the Islamic radicals are too successful, the Ethiopians (who have made no secret of this plan) will come back. And then there are the U.S. and NATO commandos up north in Djibouti, who are also ready for anything. But they are not holding any press conferences about it, unlike al Shabaab, which loves to tell the world what it's doing, or thinks it's doing, or plans on doing. The African Union (AU) peacekeepers in Mogadishu are getting reinforcements and more offensive-minded ROE (Rules of Engagement).
The Sufi militias in central Somalia are seeing more al Shabaab activity. The Sufis, defending themselves from al Shabaab violence (based on al Shabaab belief that Sufis were heretics) have kept the area quiet for the last few months. But some al Shabaab factions are discouraged with the inability to make much headway against the AU (African Union) peacekeepers in Mogadishu. But the AU ROE (Rules of Engagement) keep the troops in Mogadishu, so moving into Sufi towns or the northern statelets of Puntland and Somaliland is seen as more productive to the Islamic radical cause.
Eretria, which supports anyone opposed to Ethiopia, has apparently financed a move of Somali Ethiopian rebels (from the border province of Ogaden) into Somaliland. But local militias halted and surrounded most of the invaders. Captured rebels admitted the Eritrean connection, as did captured material (currency and documents).
September 12, 2010: A notorious Somali-American al Shabaab leader, Dahir Gurey Sheikh Ali Guled, was killed fighting TNG forces.
September 11, 2010: In Mogadishu, a roadside bomb killed five TNG soldiers. Elsewhere in the city, TNG police say they foiled an al Shabaab terrorist attack on the sea port.

by Sean O'Neill | Airfares & Flying | 2 |
Ian Chandler responded to our recent post about a new site describing the various European low-cost airlines, and we wanted to make sure you saw his tip:
The best way to find the cheapest fares in Europe is to do a bit of intense Googling and then go direct to the airline websites. Be very careful when you book to study the booking conditions and options - Ryanair, in particular, is devised with the cunning of Satan to part you from more money than you might expect. Beware of paying for "priority boarding" - on some flights, all passengers had paid for this, which made the option meaningless. Also, be aware that these airlines will charge you for every ounce of excess baggage. One other thing: within Continental Europe, it is often quicker and cheaper - and much pleasanter - to take the train than to fly.

Editing PDF documents with Cabaret Stage
Linux has had the ability to display PDF documents for many years, but it lacked an editing tool until now: enter Cabaret Stage.
In the past, Linux users had to rely on Wine and the Adobe Acrobat program to edit PDF documents or complete PDF forms on Linux. Switzerland's Cabaret Solutions AG now offers a product – called Cabaret Stage – that is designed to fill the gap, at least on x86 Linux distributions. Because the tool is implemented in Java, Linux support was not a big step. This said, the current version of Cabaret Stage is not only a prototype, but it is also a commercial product that is free of charge for private use.

Kentucky Basketball.. Is BACK
Perhaps Kentucky
needs to look into doing the same thing.
Now, I'm not saying
the Wildcats are national title contenders after beating up on a hapless Georgia
team this weekend. A 3-0 start in the SEC is fantastic, but it hardly places UK
among the North Carolinas, Connecticuts and Dukes of the college basketball
world this season.
But two plays stood
out in my mind as I watched the Cats throttle the Dawgs on Sunday. They were two
plays that meant little on the scoreboard, but were memorable enough to give
fans a great feeling about the future.
First, with just a
few minutes remaining in the first half, Michael Porter stripped Georgia guard
Zac Swansey in the backcourt, and headed toward the basket for a layup. Swansey
caught up, and just as Porter left his feet, Swansey delivered the foul, sending
Porter crashing into the basket support. As Porter, unhurt, attempted to get to
his feet, he was immediately greeted by all four of his teammates, who had
sprinted to the other end to help him up and applaud his effort.
The second play
came just a minute or so later, when Darius Miller also came up with a steal in
the backcourt. As he drove toward the goal, he fed a slashing Kevin Galloway on
the other side of the basket, who drew a foul as he tried to lay it in. As
Galloway immediately turned to head to the free throw line, he found himself
face to face with Jodie Meeks and Patrick Patterson, who both delivered
high-fives to go with the huge smiles on their faces.
On the surface,
these two plays had very little impact on the game. Two steals, two fouls, a
handful of free throws. I don't even remember if Porter or Galloway made the
free throws, and that's beside the point anyway. Both plays, in many ways,
showed the passion, camaraderie and joy that UK has been noticeably lacking in
recent seasons. Both plays sent a clear message to UK opponents- the Cats are
Near the end of the
Tubby Smith era, whispers grew that the program had lost their air of
invincibility, that Tubby's hit-or-miss recruiting efforts had created a stale
program that was neither moving forward or backward. That feeling even wafted
into the Billy GIllispie era, as his teams suffered some embarrassing setbacks
last year before hitting their stride on conference play. With fans looking
forward to the promise of a new season, UK promptly lost their first two games
this year, including a bad loss at home to Virginia Military Institute.
But instead of
allowing an "oh no- here we go again" attitude to permeate the program, these
Cats stuck together, and have slowly replaced that feeling of dread with the joy
of watching a team that is quietly meshing together and genuinely cares for one
another. Nowhere is team chemistry more important that in college basketball,
and getting that established is the first step towards the Cats reclaiming their
place among the elite.
No doubt, part of
the excitement around the team again is due to the exploits of Meeks, who has
quickly erased an injury-riddle sophomore season by thrusting himself into the
National Player of the Year discussion this season. His scoring explosions have
been well-documented, but what has gone overlooked is his team-first attitude.
Meeks continues to answer questions with "we", not "I", and is quick to credit
his team for his place in the record books. Watching his teammates mob him after
he pumped in 54 points against Tennessee was one of the sweetest moments in UK
history, because it showed the togetherness that championships are built on.
But even more than
Meeks, even more than the reliable play of stud forward Patrick Patterson, or
the shot-swatting of Perry Stevenson, or the toughness of Ramon Harris, is the
energy that this team takes the floor with every time out.
Players who hit the
floor for loose balls are yanked to their feet by multiple teammates, as the
assistant coaches (and occasionally even Gillispie) applaud to show their
approval. A high flying dunk or a deep three produces enough towel waving from
the bench players to give Steelers' fans and their Terrible Towels a run for
their money. Hustle plays are quickly rewarded with chest bumps and high-fives
from everyone on the floor. The extra pass for an easy basket is always followed
by a finger-point and "good pass boy!", loud enough for even the television
audience to pick up. And record-breaking performances are topped off with more
hugs than a family reunion.
Now granted, all
the good feelings and high-fives in the world don't overshadow shortcomings
between the lines. UK still would like more consistent point guard play and they
still lack a reliable third scorer (although Meeks nearly scores enough himself
to count for two players). They're still dangerously low on experience, and
their rotation seems to change every game.
But watching this
team play, watching their hustle and unselfishness, their toughness and
teamwork, gives UK fans a glimpse into the future of this program. They're
taking the floor with the swagger that comes with hard work and a love of the
game. They're playing for their teammates and their coaches, and that teamwork
is growing more and more evident with each game. They're playing loose, having
fun and giving their fans a reason to believe that they're only going to get
So regardless of
where this season might end, be it in the SEC Tournament, the Sweet 16 or even
cutting down the nets for their eighth national title, this team has already
started building their legacy, and more importantly, restoring the programs'
UK has always been a program that focuses on team accomplishments above all else, and these Cats get that. Playing for UK has always been a privilege that has to be earned every day, and these Cats get that. Playing college basketball for a storied program in one of the best venues in the country is a fantastic experience that should be enjoyed, and these Cats get that.
So while the box
score may show simply two steals and three points, the message to the rest of
the SEC, and college basketball, is clear.
Kentucky is back.

Broadway Says Goodbye
Broadway Says Goodbye
Sat, 08/16/2014 - 12:00pm - 1:00pm
To say the least, this has been a difficult week in Tinseltown and on Broadway. Family, friends, and the world are saying goodbye to two Hollywood and Broadway greats: Robin Williams and Lauren Bacall.
On Broadway there are many ways to say goodbye. Some people are singing about their careers, while others are songs about saying goodbye to the person they love. Some Broadway songs could be about a person dying and wishing he/she could have done more, and others are about starting over or even just moving on to a new show or career. Broadway songs about saying goodbye could be sad, happy, or somewhere in the middle.
Join host Robert Hammond as he says "hello" to the many moods of Broadway goodbye songs.
"The stage is bare. The crowds are gone. The love we shared still lingers on. We sang and played and we laughed and cried. And in our tumbling way we tried. To say that only hearts can know, and all too soon we had to go. But now here in this darkened room—just empty seats. There's just me and you..." (David Badillo)

04 March 2013 Officials searching for man who assaulted and stabbed Trooper
Major Steven James
Troop G Commander
Latham, NY- March 4, 2013 State Police and Albany Police officials are currently searching for Eric L. Green, 18, date of birth February 7, 1995, for questioning in conjunction with the assault and stabbing which occurred on March 3, 2013 on the concourse of the Empire State Plaza on Trooper Rodney L. Smith. Green's current address is unknown but he does have ties to the Grand Street area in the City of Albany. Officials are asking anyone who might have seen him or know of his whereabouts to contact 518-474-5330 with any information. On March 3, 2013 at approximately 3:15 PM, a New York State Trooper on foot patrol on the Concourse of the Empire State Plaza in Albany was assaulted by an individual and resulted in the Trooper suffering from stab wounds. Trooper Rodney L. Smith, a 15 year veteran of the New York State Police was approached by an individual who began a conversation with the Trooper regarding being new in town and not knowing anyone in the area. Trooper Smith was in the process of checking the subject's identification when he was struck in the neck on the left side with a steak knife. A brief struggle ensued with the Trooper able to fend off the assailant but he also suffered an additional puncture wound to the right side of his neck, his face, and numerous superficial wounds to hands and arms. The unknown subject was able to remove the Trooper's radio and fled the scene on foot. Trooper Smith was able to call for help using a cell phone. Trooper Smith remains in stable condition at Albany Medical Center Hospital and is expected to fully recover. "Our troopers can find themselves in dangerous and sometimes life threatening situations on any given day. Fortunately Trooper Smith is expected to make a full recovery, said State Police Superintendent Joseph D'Amico. State Police are working with the Albany Police Department as well as other area law enforcement to identify the individual responsible for this senseless attack. In the meantime, our thoughts and prayers are with Trooper Smith's family." < back Related Assets Other articles in Troop G - Latham:

Category: Markets / Finance / December 7, 2012 11:47 AM EST
Defying expectations of a sharp pull back relating to Superstorm Sandy, U.S. stocks opened higher on Friday (December 7) in the wake of data showing U.S. employment grew more than forecast in November.
The jobless rate fell to a near four-year low, but that was largely because so many Americans gave up the hunt for work.
Nonfarm employment increased by 146,000 jobs last month, the Labor Department said on Friday, defying expectations of a sharp pull back related to Superstorm Sandy.
The government said the storm which slammed the densely populated East Coast had not had a substantive impact on last month's employment and unemployment estimates.
U.S. financial markets appeared to put more faith in the payroll growth figures, with stock index futures turning positive and prices for U.S. government debt falling.
"The data is actually a pretty good progression. When you look at what's been happening over the last three months, we get this, companies are laying off or companies are not, and uncertainty. All of that is true, but when you really look at what's really been occurring, after the revisions because I think the revisions actually went down for the last two months, it's just a slow climb out, nothing dramatic, about as we had expected. So now also you have to put it into context, you really need, some economists would say, you need 150,000 maybe 170,000 jobs to kind of get above that turnover rate, but this is good news, particularly with Sandy as the backdrop," said Jeffrey Joerres, CEO of employment services group, ManpowerGroup.
The 0.2 percentage point drop in the unemployment rate to 7.7 percent -- the lowest since December 2008 -- represented a drop in both the labor force and employment as measured by a survey of households. Economists generally rely more heavily on the payrolls reading from the separate and much larger survey of employers.
But the numbers still had an impact on Wall Street with the Dow Jones industrial average gaining 57.29 points, or 0.44 percent, to 13,131.33. The Standard & Poor's 500 Index rose 6.09 points, or 0.43 percent, to 1,420.03. The Nasdaq Composite Index climbed 13.69 points, or 0.46 percent, to 3,002.96.
