One buyer said recently: "Although there is some minor growth in the [EU] GDP, we see that some of our customers are still struggling. It's way too early to start celebrating economic growth and an eventually shortening market."
Figures from statistics agency Eurostat show the EU's GDP grew by 0.4% in the second quarter from the first quarter. However, employment levels in the EU fell by 0.4% in the second quarter compared with the same quarter a year ago.
A producer that said it had decreased prices by €5-10/tonne in August said it regained the same amount from customers in September. Another producer acknowledged it is hard to raise prices drastically, because of an oversupply of
Sources said buying activity in the coming weeks is expected to be steady to slightly higher because of an expected seasonal increase in demand in October. Demand is forecast to slow down in December because of holiday plant shutdowns and destocking.
The ADA September contract was settled on a FD (free delivered) NWE (northwest Europe) basis.

US, Mexico work together to fight drug cartels
The threat of cartel violence is forcing a new approach. Mexico will begin scanning vehicles for drugs and money and using intelligence to target the right vehicles, Medina-Mora said.
The U.S. will used border surveillance technology to track vehicles crossing the border and flag those making frequent trips. Additional X-ray machines and drug sniffing dogs are being deployed at border crossings to help detect weapons shipments.
Two weeks ago Customs officials at the eight railroads between the U.S. and Mexico began scanning rail cars on the way out of the U.S. instead of just on their way in. When U.S. officials see something suspicious in the X-ray, they alert Mexican law enforcement, which intercepts the rail cars in Mexico.
It was as simple as flipping a switch, said Marko Lopez Jr., chief of staff for Customs and Border Protection.
Lopez, a recent addition to the new administration, said he did not know why this wasn't being done before. "Bottom-line is that we weren't," Lopez said. "It's a huge vulnerability."

Using the #import statement to create your client application introduces exception handling through the _com_error exception class when a wrapper for an object's method encounters a failed HRESULT. You might have valid reasons to replace this mechanism with your own implementation.
There are two ways to use #import and not have it raise exceptions for failed HRESULTS. The first is simply to use the raw_interfaces_only clause with the #import statement. However, this negates some of the advantages of the wrapper classes that #import provides.
The second technique is by providing your own implementation for _com_raise_error, which has the following prototype and default implementation:
This function is declared but not implemented in the Comdef.h file. If you provide your own implementation in an .OBJ file, the linker uses that implementation as opposed to bringing it in from the Comsupp.lib file. _com_raise_error exists in its own object in the Comsupp.lib file so it can be easily replaced by your code.
Following is a sample implementation of the #import's exception raising function.
NOTE: Currently the compiler ignores a function exception-specification and generates the following warning:
At this time, the implementation details of exception specification have not been standardized, and are accepted but not implemented in Microsoft Visual C++. Code compiled with ignored exception specifications may need to be recompiled and linked to be reused in future versions supporting exception specifications. You can avoid this warning by using the warning pragma:
warning C4290: C++ Exception Specification ignored.
Sample Code
This code attempts to open an ActiveX Data Objects (ADO) connection object without providing any valid connection information. Replacing _com_raise_error prevented the _com_error from being raised.

Malaysia bans Noah film as 'un-Islamic'
Published on Apr 5, 2014 12:53 PM
KUALA LUMPUR (AFP) - Malaysia has joined other Islamic countries in banning the Hollywood biblical epic Noah starring Russell Crowe, decrying it as irreligious and saying it violates Islamic law against depicting prophets.
A home ministry official on Saturday confirmed that Paramount's latest big budget film, which has sparked an outcry among Muslim groups worldwide, will not be screened in predominantly Muslim Malaysia.
The film has already angered some Christian institutions in the United States over Crowe's reportedly unconventional portrayal of Noah, who is regarded as an important figure in both Christianity and Islam.
Malaysia's home ministry's Film Censorship Board unit chairman Abdul Halim Abdul Hamid said a decision to ban the Noah film was made about two weeks ago.

I remember seeing the Chrysler Turbine Car that Butler University's assistant athletics director Henry A. Johnson drove around Indianapolis during the turbine car user program in early 1964.
I stood at the campus bus stop waiting for the bus to high school and heard a whooshing sound as the mysterious turbine car passed by. To me it was a bronze rocket car of tomorrow. For a budding car nut like myself, these moments ignited (no pun intended) my automotive obsession.
The turbine engines and chassis were built at Chrysler's Greenfield Avenue turbine research center in Detroit. Chrysler executive Elwood P. Engle designed the bodies and interiors were mostly hand-crafted by Ghia in Italy and shipped to Detroit for final assembly. One of the most interesting styling features of the car was the console that ran the length of the cabin, from the firewall to between the rear seats, with its straked and gentle rib detailing. The car's futuristic styling has been called smooth and sleek. That's what drew me to the car.
The Chrysler Turbine Car was introduced to the public on May 14, 1963, at the Essex House in New York City. A week earlier, Chrysler announced that it would lend each of the 50 Turbine Cars to select members of the public for three-month drives during the two-year user program. The immediate public response was overwhelming – 30,000 sent in requests asking to be involved in the program within six weeks of the announcement. About 202 participated in the program.
B. W. Bogan, Chrysler vice president and director of engineering, presented the keys to the turbine car to the Johnson family in front of the Indianapolis Motor Speedway Motel in mid-December 1963. Each of the program's families were thoroughly familiarized with these unique autos before commencing the three-month program. At the end of the drivers' stint, Chrysler officials queried them about their experience. Most were very enthusiastic with their evaluation. Some wanted to purchase their test car.
The user program was a positive experience for the Chrysler Corporation, but the difficulties of economically producing the exotic turbine engines and government clean-air regulations hampered mass turbine production.
The Chrysler Turbine Car still lives on in my memory.

I'm in the midwest though not single at this time. I have been a single mom for more years than i've had a partner. I also have an Autistic child, which doesn't bring the men running. Yes, the midwest being the bible belt just assumes that everyone is married. UGH! I am happily DIVORCED myself but you will never get away from the traditional people out here. Good luck Mama!
I will not be a single mother, but I was raised by a single mother in the Midwest. I don't think it has so much to do with the area as much as you think. Regardless of what other people think, know that you are probably better off without a coward of a man who chooses to leave his wife and child. My father left when I was two or so, I have no memories of him and I am fine with that. I had a loving household and a wonderful mother who did everything for me. Focus on your children, and doing what is right for you and your family. Forget what other people may ask you or think, that is their issue, not yours.

I'm not married, live in the Midwest. No one asks me.

Some people cannot wrap their minds around single parenting. It just doesn't compute so, they just make assumptions to make themselves more comfortable, or within THEIR reason.
I'm not in the midwest, sorry. I live in California and at least the doctor I was assigned has made no assumptions regarding my marital status. She asked once casually what my living situation was and if I was living with anyone.
However, at work people have not been so 'forgiving'. I constantly get asked about my 'husband' and blah blah. It's a fairly conservative group and the customers/clients are, too.
Anyways, I'm sorry you have to deal with that. I think doctors especially should be more privy to the types of things people may be going through and there are lots of more inclusive ways to phrase things so no one gets hurt feelings.
I dont think its a midwest thing. I knew tons of single moms and was one myself when I got divorced in the midwest I was in Kansas. Though in the midwest I did notice more people did get married much younger and definitely had more children younger. I am from NY my HS friends are only now getting married and starting families. I got married at 19 and had 2 kids and got divorced by 22 in the midwest and I wasn't alone. I am now 27 pregnant with #4 and it seems the norm where I am.
