I fell off a quad bike in a desert and cut open my leg (near my ankle). Unfortunately, it wasn't stitched very well in Egypt, and once the stitches were removed, it left about 2 cm where there was no skin. I have since got a very dark scar that has not changed colour in the last year. The skin is very thin, a bit lumpy on one side. What can I do to lighten the scar? Would laser help or make it worse?

3 base units and top pad. Total size: 5000mm x 3000mm x 650mm high. Total weight: 175kg.
The HART "Cut Out" High Jump Mats are a new innovative product made by us in Australia. These mats will provide long lasting performance for your school or club and at the same time, comfort and safety for your athletes.
The "Cut out" design allows more mat for the athlete to land on should the jump not go as planned. The mat is set-up directly under the bar, not behind it.
HART "Cut out" High Jump Mats come with a 100mm hook and loop tape system that holds the bases together. This tape runs the entire length of the bases – not just small sections. The risk of separation or movement of the bases is greatly reduced. The bases are also reinforced with snap hooks from the top pad which reduces the risk of separation even further.
The top pad is 50mm thick and is covered top and bottom in a UV Stabilized, woven PVC coated polyester "yarn" which allows spikes to be used. The sides are covered in fire retardant woven 1100dtex polyester. The pad comes complete with rust resistant snap hooks for easy attachment to the base. The tough materials used ensure long life with limited wear and tear. The top pad can be manufactured in red, yellow or blue.
The sides and bottoms of all bases are covered in a fire retardant hardwearing 1100dtex UV treated polyester vinyl with an extremely high tear strength. The top of each base is covered in a UV Stabilized woven PVC coated polyester "yarn" that allows the mat to breath and quickly return to its original shape after absorbing the athlete's impact. These mats can be manufactured in a range of vibrant vinyl colour combinations.
Each base has three layers of foam made from flexible polyether polyurethane. Each layer has a different density and a different compression rate. Softer density foam is used at the top to allow for greater impact absorption and denser foam is used in the bottom layer to minimize the risk of bottoming out. The middle layer is configured in an air-cell channel style construction method which further increases the comfort of the athlete.
Our handles are made from a tough 5cm nylon seatbelt webbing which is cross stitched and double backed to ensure maximum strength. The zippers and sliders used are all industrial quality and rust proof.
All seams and hems are doubled stitched using a UV treated 2000 Dabond Thread, at least five stitches per inch.
All HART "Cut Out" Mats have a 12 month Guarantee against defective workmanship and materials including handles, seams and threads.

The emerging biomedical field in the El Paso region gained a big endorsement this week from the federal government, which is giving a million-dollar grant to help fund a state-of-art research facility.
The Medical Center of the Americas Foundation received a $1 million grant from the U.S. Commerce Department's Economic Development Administration. The goal of the investment is to help expand the biomedical field in the El Paso region by helping to pay for the design and engineering of a new biomedical research and technology commercialization building.
"We are very excited about this grant and what it will do for the El Paso area," said Emma Schwartz, president of the Medical Center of the Americas Foundation. "It's a great endorsement from the federal government on the emerging biomedical research field in El Paso and will have a great impact continuing that growth."
The new 80,000-square-foot, four-story building will feature office suites, wet and dry laboratories, incubator space, and other flexible workspaces available for companies in the biomedical field. The building, which will be on Gateway Boulevard East between Raynolds and Chelsea streets, will be the first laboratory in the area that will lease space to private research companies, Schwartz said.
"There is nowhere else that offers laboratories to private companies anywhere in the area," Schwartz said. "This is an important step in helping El Paso to continue to grow in biomedical research and economically, because it allows companies to come and stay in El Paso. That brings in money and talent that is needed to help further biomedical research."
While the development of the biomedical field is still in the early phases, officials of the center are encouraged that the grant is just the beginning of more support from the federal, state and local governments.
"This is a huge step for us and a game changer for El Paso," said Angelica Talavera, grants and development specialist for the Medical Center of the Americas Foundation. "With this, the hope is the EDA (Economic Development Administration), city and county will keep investing in biomedical research in El Paso, so it will continue to grow and allow the research already being done here to stay here, while bringing other research projects to El Paso."
As biomedical research has become a field many cities are trying develop, El Paso's role as a border city played a large role for the grant to the Medical Center of the Americas Foundation, Matt Erskine, U.S. deputy assistant secretary of commerce for economic development, said in a statement.
"This EDA investment is a great example of the Obama administration's commitment to supporting collaborative regional innovation, entrepreneurship, and economic growth," Erskine said. "The EDA grant announced (Monday) will help provide a new place for biotechnology and medical businesses in west Texas to grow and establish cross-border links throughout the entire Paso del Norte region."
The groundbreaking for the building is planned for January 2014, and the opening in August 2015, Schwartz said.
"We are very excited about what this facility will do for medical research and the city of El Paso," Schwartz said. "We hope this facility located right off I-10 will become an iconic building for all of El Paso."

3-Day Italy Trip: Naples, Pompeii and Amalfi
- 3 day Naples, Pompeii and Amalfi tour from Rome
- Guided city tour of Naples
- World Heritage-listed Pompeii excavations
- Full day in Amalfi with free time to explore
- 2 nights' accommodation and meals
- Professionally guided tour
What You Can Expect
Naples is the region's capital and filled with historic castles and sites. The city was first colonized by the ancient Greeks, who gave it the name Neapolis (new city). Today, Naples' city center is on the UNESCO World Heritage List.
A short distance from Naples stands the once lost city of Pompeii. Covered in ash from a volcanic eruption in 79 B.C., the site was only accidentally discovered during renovations some 1,700 years later.
Winding along coastal roads, the rugged town of Amalfi emerges with its colorful terraces perched along steep slopes. In the public squares below, take your pick of restaurants and linger in souvenir shops where red coral jewelry is the signature accessory.
After departing Rome, drive along the "Sun Route" motorway and cross the regions of Lazio and Campania. Once in Naples, enjoy a short city tour before continuing towards Pompeii where lunch in a restaurant is provided. A UNESCO World Heritage listed site, Pompeii is one of the must see attractions of Italy. You will visit the excavations of this world-famous Roman town, destroyed by the eruption of Mt. Vesuvius in 79 A.D. Next it's onto Amalfi for overnight stay.
Day 2: Amalfi (B, D)
Take a full day to enjoy Amalfi's breathtaking coast along its famous promenade. Make your own way up to the Cathedral, with its splendid Bell Tower overlooking the small town below. In the center of the Piazza del Duomo catch a glimpse of Fontana del Popolo, before walking through the old quarter, lined with its picturesque shops. Overnight in your hotel.
Day 3: Amalfi, Pompeii, Rome (B)
After breakfast, enjoy another free morning before departing back to Rome via Pompeii.
Customer Reviews
August 2015
Very well organised. Guides were very informative and we had enough time out from walking and listening.
Most enjoyable trip. Loved Amalfi!
July 2014
We absolutely loved this tour. Miriam had very interesting information and Victorio was so passionate and knowledgable about Pompeii. I would not recommend the Naples part of the tour. We went on to Amalfi for 2 nights and highly recommend upgrading to the 4 star option. A very well organised tour!
June 2012
This trip was brilliant. The Amalfi coast is beautiful and very picturesque. The hotel we stayed in was excellent and the bus ride from the hotel to Amalfi is something to be experienced. Pompeii was extraordinary and I also recommend taking a boat trip from Amalfi to Positano, to complete the experience.

Lovely 3 days with Sunny 25o days, The (opt.) trip to The Isle of Capri was a lovely day with our trip to The Blue Pools beautiful. I did however feel that the one fee you paid at Capri for this tour should have been inclusive of the entry to the cave which wasn't the case.Vivienne (Australia)

Excellent tour, very informative with good tour guide.
July 2011
The Amalfi coast is beautiful, and the trip overall was great, however, when we arrived at our hotel The Excelsior, they did not have a reservation for us, and we were given a small room, without a view and the air conditioning did not work. The hotel meals were very good and the hotel appeared overall to be a very nice and 4 star business. The hotel staff, with the exception of Anna Marie on the front desk who was surly and unfriendly, were polite and very friendly and made the guests feel welcome.

July 2011
The walking tour of Naples was a bit short but considering that the highlight was Pompeii it was OK. The cameo factory tour was really not interesting and the items far too expensive for souvenirs to take home. Great views of the Tyrrhennian Sea from the Hotel Fontana in Amalfi and good to explore on our own. But we could have used some more advice on what's there to see. Overall a very good excursion.

Naples was a waste of time, Pompeii-good. At this point suppose to go to Sorrento but forced to separate from our friends due to a Viator miscommunication. Which was not remedied due to the fact that your dealing with a third party! Claudia tour guide was not very positive with her delivery.

Q. I have three Santa Rosa plum trees. They get fertilizer spikes in the spring and are watered daily. I am getting two-foot long suckers off the tree. Is this normal and should I be removing them? The growth on the tree has been great, but I see no signs of fruit. I also have a Green Gage plum tree that has not grown in size in the last two years. The leaves curl up with brown edges. The tree gets watered daily and receives the same fertilizer tree spikes. Do you have any suggestions? Should I be adding iron to all of my trees and shrubs? My photinias are experiencing the same thing as the Green Gage plum. They do not put out any new grow and the leaves turn yellow then brown. Of my two pear trees, one has great growth but has very droopy leaves that are turning yellow. Is due to an iron deficiency?
A. Some of the symptoms you described could be iron chlorosis, the symptom of iron deficiency. Iron chlorosis appears as yellowing of leaves between the veins which remain green. In cases of severe iron deficiency the leaves may turn brown, especially around the edge of the leaf.
Yellowing and browning of the edge of the leaves could also indicate salt burn. This could be due to the accumulation of various mineral salts from irrigation water. Excess salts can cause burning and this is called "salt burn." Irrigating daily, especially if insufficient water is supplied and if the water is high in dissolved minerals can cause the burning of leaves you described. Excess salts in the soil and irrigation water are problems in much of New Mexico. The solution is to use plants tolerant of excess mineral salts and proper irrigation that keeps the soil in the root zone consistently moist without overwatering. Overwatering can suffocate roots by filling the voids between soil particles with water and forcing out the oxygen that roots need. In most of New Mexico gardeners can irrigate trees and shrubs two to three times a month with good results. This water should be applied to the region of soil containing roots that actively absorb water. These roots are found from the dripline of a tree or shrub outward from two to more than five times the height of the plant. Water is not as essential in the zone under the canopy, between the dripline and the trunk. Tree roots can effectively exploit soil water to a depth of two to three feet, so the soil should be consistently moistened to that depth each time you irrigate. Shrubs should be in soil consistently moistened to a depth of two feet.
The production of long water sprouts (you called them "suckers") from the branches is not desirable. If these shoots are in a useful place they may be pruned to shorten them. If they are not in good places they may be removed. Summer pruning is a good time for removal of water sprouts. Such sprouts are often produced to compensate for excess pruning or over fertilization.
The absence of fruit this year is probably due to late freezes that killed the blossoms or the young fruit as they were forming. The drought early this year may also be a contributing factor.

I've certainly been blessed with good horses for those moments where my brain fails me! Takala got out of the fence a few days ago, right through the gate - which is made out of rope that isn't hot. My father came in the house and told me, and she was just sniffing noses with the other horses and grazing just outside of their reach. Tenakee was just calmly standing and staring at her, as her usual regime. (Which I figured that big mare would tear down the fence and wrangle her foal, but even the first time Takala got away she just whinnied a bit.) Takala is loves people and getting attention, but she isn't the best at letting other people approach her. I'm not sure if it is just the way that they do it, or she is just most comfortable with me, but my dad didn't want her to go running down the driveway so he let me handle it. I was a tad cautious, as well, and went between her and the road, (which is at the end of our long driveway, and we were no where near the road,) and I grabbed her by the halter and led her back into the pen. No trouble at all! Reminds me of my Appy gelding, who - when we didn't have all the other horses - would get out and all you needed to do was call him and point back into the pen and he'd come a runnin' back in.
Yesterday, Takala was 'officially' two months old! (This is the beginning of her third month, so I'm not sure if I'd consider her two or three.) Her face has shed out considerably each day, and despite her very light color and grey eyes, she looks to be darkening into a chestnut. The day before yesterday, Tenakee got a bath due to the 50 degree weather, and she minded pretty well. And back to yesterday, I went to her stall and started grooming her quite a bit, and then something possessed me to grab her saddle. The saddle was under too much stuff, so instead I grabbed a bareback pad, and put it on her. I got her bridle on, and got up and, with helmet fastened to my head, to pony Takala out to the pasture. It went well considering Takala didn't think I had any power over her while I was riding, and Tenakee had no idea how to neck rein, but she knew the path and stuck to it so I spent most of my time controlling the 'little' one.
It certainly was interesting, to say the least. Tenakee doesn't really get arenas, or walking in a straight line. She gives me a few steps and stops, so we worked with that. Once Takala is weaned I plan to work better with her lunging and responsiveness. I think Tenakee was probably a good trail horse, but never had much arena work with her. The only trouble she gave me was a mock-spook where she stopped and slid and turned. She has so much mane hair that I just grabbed onto a chunk and my butt moved maybe an inch forward. She was kind of surprised when I was still hanging on, but was good for the rest of the time. In the meantime Takala was running like her tail was on fire! She circled around, kicked, reared, and several other unnamed maneuvers. She wasn't still being ponied, so I only got to correct her when she was in range. A few times she decided to rear up onto mom, which she got a bunk on the head, then galloped off. Then kicking real close, which was a huge no-no. I no more than poked her with my boot and she wheeled off, and that was that. Tenakee kept her head even with baby running around, so props to her. And I kept my seat, so hopefully I get some brownie points, too.
And for all this I only have two pictures of the aftermath. Sorry! I'll have to hire a photographer to capture my daily conquests as I am usually (*always) the one working with the horses.

Roseville Arts will rock the runway
By: Eileen Wilson Special to the Press Tribune
Inaugural Fashion Spree and Green Tea event on Dec. 6.
While fashions may be a best-dressed diva's dream, those that are sustainable and green at the same time are the focus of an event to be held this weekend. Re-cycle and re-use is a theme that will be present throughout Fashion Spree and Green Tea event from the gently-used clothing and accessories, provided by ReNew Boutique in Roseville, to tables decorated with fine china and original pieces of recycled art. Co-chairs Kelly Peterson and Valerie Bowman want to remind people about the importance of sustainability in our community. "We were at a committee meeting, trying to think of a fun, collaborative way to raise funds," Bowman said. "I'd been to ReNew Boutique, and I was so impressed with the quality. We're really trying to support downtown businesses. A Dash of Panache is involved in the event too." In addition to runway fashions that will be available for purchase, guests will enjoy tasty tea fare, and of course, the star of the show, warm and delicious tea. "The event will be a lot of fun. We have 9-foot Christmas trees, hung with tea cup ornaments which are available for purchase," Bowman said. Each table will be decorated by different women from Roseville's Newcomers Club. "We'll have beautiful china and tea services," Bowman said. "Rose-ville's mayor will be one of our models, as well as a mom and her child from Acres of Hope." In addition, ladies are encouraged to don hats and gloves, or they may borrow fun finery at the event, creating a true, dress-up tea. "People have been so enthusiastic – we've already sold a lot of tables of eight," Bowman said. Proceeds will benefit Roseville Arts' programs, including the Blue Line Gallery.

At least 32 cops killed by cattle raidersComment on this story
Nairobi, Kenya - Armed cattle raiders killed at least 32 Kenyan police officers when they ambushed them in the remote northern county of Samburu on Saturday, a government official said on Monday, in the latest fighting between rival tribes in a dispute over land.
Officials had previously put the death toll at 12 and local media has reported at least 40 deaths.
They said raiders from the ethnic Turkana community who had stolen cattle from members of the Samburu community killed police who were pursuing them.
Cattle rustling and clashes over grazing and farming land are relatively common between communities in arid areas of east Africa and often escalate into revenge attacks.
Osman Warfa, provincial commissioner for the vast Rift Valley province, said the attack was carried out using machine-guns, anti-personnel bombs and rocket-propelled grenades.
"We have recovered more bodies, we now have 32 in total. They were ambushed by attackers bearing sophisticated weapons, including machine guns," Warfa told Reuters.
Warfa said authorities were searching for more bodies.
The Turkana and Samburu tribes frequently raid cattle from each other and fight over grazing land and watering points.
Samburu county has a national game reserve and neighbouring Turkana county is where British explorer Tullow Oil struck the country's first promising oil find earlier this year.
In September, more than 100 people were shot, hacked and burnt to death by armed raiders in the coastal county of Tana River, creating security concerns ahead of a presidential election scheduled for March next year. - Reuters

November 28, 2015
WASHINGTON (AP) - There are hints of concessions to come but no actual signs of tangible progress in negotiations between the White House and congressional leaders on avoiding the so-called fiscal cliff.
The hints at fresh concessions on taxes and cuts to Medicare and other benefit programs come from the White House and a key congressional Democrat. Increasing numbers of rank-and-file Republicans also said they are ready to give ground.
That would be a boost for House Speaker John Boehner and other party leaders.
President Barack Obama says he'll "do whatever it takes to get this done."
He says it's "too important for Washington to screw this up."
There were no face-to-face talks between the administration and lawmakers Wednesday, but the White House is dispatching Treasury Secretary Tim Geithner and top legislative aide Rob Nabors to a series of sessions with congressional leaders on Thursday.

Domino Game Strategy
If you're interested in learning the skills and tactics involved in winning domino games, then you can find allsorts of tips and strategies explained here.
Some domino games are pretty much just luck, involving fairly mechanical gameplay, but there are also many where skill and judgement will tend to make the difference between winning and losing a domino game. Of course, the tiles you draw or are dealt is purely down to luck, but how you play them can make a difference in the game's outcome. A skilful domino player will win more games in general than unskilled players.
Imagine an ordinary blackjack player for example, he relies mostly on guesswork and luck to beat the opposition, in this case, the dealer. Even though this player understands the rules of the game, he is far from a skilled player, which, in addition to knowing the rules, is able to 'read' the game and makes his choices based on the knowledge of the cards in the deck. Blackjack players like these gain such a level of skill with constant practce, either in casinos wagering real money, online with 'practice accounts' or indeed online for real money. To try it out for yourself, have a look at Betway, the best online casino with a huge selection of games. The same principle goes for dominoes, the higher skill you have, the better you'll be able to alter the game's outcome in your favour. See this page to play dominoes online and practice your skill.
General Domino Gameplay Tips
Make sure you know the type of domino game and the specific rules of the the domino game you are playing. You'll soon have a basic idea, after a few rounds of domino play, of which kind of moves or gameplay are the most beneficial. Familiarise yourself with the tiles and type of domino set you are using. Knowing the number of tiles in a particular suit will help you judge the right tile to play and help you work out the possible tiles in other players' hands. (See types of domino sets for a full description.)
Block and Draw Domino Game Tips
Here are some useful tips for playing Block and Draw-type domino games. They are not in-depth strategies but if you follow the tips listed below you will have an advantage over other players who aren't using any real strategy at all.
Point Domino Game Tips
Here are some tips for playing :Point-type domino games. Learn these and you'll improve your game play considerably.
Be warned that blocking strategies can backfire on you in games where players must draw extra tiles from the boneyard when they can't make a play. It could equip your opponents with tiles that can work against you, and not increase your score at the end of a round/hand, if you use blocking too early in game play.
Advanced Domino Strategy
There is a more advanced domino strategy you can use that involves some quite complex mental arithmetic and calculation. Check back to this page in the future for more details.

Reese will read that and cry into her pillow tonight, which will mean that her upstairs maid will have to clean up a bunch of loose goosedown in the bedroom yet again.
I don't know the circumstances of her other childbirths, but I assume that they're like Cesarians that start from the INSIDE, when at 40 weeks the child decides to start making its way out, chin first.
If her babies are anything like their fathers, they going to be getting away from her as quickly as they can.
If that expression doesn't truly express her elation at the miracle of growing a child, I don't know what does.
Seriously thought that thunbnail was Jessica Simpson! Wow!
She looks like the type of woman who wants to shit out a kid for every man who sticks a dick in her, just to ease her christian guilt. Nobody makes finer whores than christians.
If that really is the case, I would be tempted, but I would stay the fuck away from her. I don't want any kids.

Miss Utah latest beauty queen to botch answer
LAS VEGAS (AP) — Miss Utah Marissa Powell is the latest beauty queen to trip on national television, not over her gown, but during the interview segment.
Asked about income inequality at the Miss USA pageant in Las Vegas Sunday night, the 21 year-old gave a rambling, awkwardly-worded answer that included several long pauses and the phrase "create education better."
The cringe-inducing response was getting lots of buzz Monday. Pageant co-owner Donald Trump scolded the haters on Twitter, saying anyone can lose their train of thought.
But Miss Utah is not the only beauty to mangle an answer, and her answer was certainly not the worst recorded in a pageant.
Miss South Carolina took that crown with her 2007 "such as"-filled response to a question about geographical literacy.

- The Bank of Japan's Tankan survey of large-manufacturing sentiment increased for the fifth consecutive time, edging up to a seven-year high of 17 in Q1 from 16 in Q4 but slightly missing consensus of 18.
- The non-manufacturing index rose to 24 from 20, as expected.
- However, with sales tax increasing to 8% today from 5%, the manufacturing outlook print slumped to 8 from 14 and the non-manufacturing outlook dropped to 13 from 17. Both figures were worse than expected.
- In addition, big companies expect to increase capital spending by just 0.1% this fiscal year, which starts today, way below a previous reading of 3.9%.
- "There isn't much reason for companies to be optimistic," says economist Shinichiro Kobayashi. "The sales-tax hike is going to drag on the economy, and exports have been weaker than expected on the back of a slow global recovery." (PR)
- Meanwhile, Japanese shoppers went on a spending binge to stock up ahead of the tax hike.
- The Nikkei closed -0.2%, while the USD-JPY is +0.1% at ¥103.29.

- The FOMC does the ECB a favor with its hawkish tilt, taking the euro (FXE) down 0.8% to $1.3827. A check of other currencies finds them lower across the board vs. the greenback: Cable (FXB) -0.4%, yen (FXY) -1.1%, Swiss franc (FXF) -0.9%, loonie (FXC) -1%, aussie (FXA) -1%.

- The Nikkei leads Asian stocks lower following more weak Chinese economic data yesterday and amid increased tension in Ukraine, with the Japanese index slumping 3.3%. A sharp rise in the yen overnight didn't help matters.
- "Japan stocks often take the first hit on bad Asian news, then when the U.S. markets fall later, they react to that as well, resulting in a 'double whammy' effect," says hedge-fund manager Ed Rogers.
- Hong Kong shares are also suffering as the Hang Seng drops 0.9% and heads for its worst week since May 2012.
- Elsewhere in Asia, China -0.8% and Indian -0.9%.
- Meanwhile, Japanese industrial production rose 3.8% on month vs a prior estimate of +4%.
- On year, output +10.3% vs +10.6%.
- Capacity utilization +5.9% vs +2.2%.

- Toyota (TM) has agreed to raise base salaries for its Japanese workers for the first time in six years amid soaring profits at the company, with staff set to receive an average increase of 2.9%.
- Other firms are also increasing wages, including Honda (HMC), Nissan (NSANF), Nippon Steel & Sumitomo Metal (NISTF), retailer Lawson and Daiwa Securities Group (DSEEY).
- The pay increases signal how major companies are paying heed to the government's exhortations to lift wages as part of the battle against deflation.
- Separately, Toyota has issued $1.75B of "green" bonds linked to auto loans that will be used to help finance vehicles that are powered by hybrid or alternative fuel.

Mar. 11, 2014, 2:44 AM
- As expected, the Bank of Japan has left its key interest rate at 0.1% and maintained its program of expanding the monetary base by ¥60-70T a year.
- The BOJ upgraded its assessment of industrial output and investment but cut its analysis for exports.
- In a related development, Japanese machine tool orders, a leading indicator of capex, climbed 26% on year in February, although that was down from +40.3% in January.
- The bank's latest policy decision comes ahead of a rise in sales tax next month that is expected to drag on the economy.
- The Nikkei is +0.7%, while the USD-JPY is flat at ¥103.31. (BOJ Statement)

Mar. 10, 2014, 2:36 AM
- Japan has revised down its Q4 GDP growth calculation to 0.2% from an initial 0.3%, with the economy held back by weaker-than-estimated capex and consumer spending.
- Annualized GDP was +0.7% vs +1%. (PR)
- The current-account deficit increased to a record ¥1.59T ($15.4B) in January from ¥638.6B in December. (PR)
- "Capital spending remains weak and exports are not coming back to strengthen the recovery, and without support in these areas, Japan's economy is going to contract significantly in the second quarter," says economist Yoshimasa Maruyama. "The negative effect from the (upcoming) sales tax rise could be worse than the BOJ and government expect."
- The Nikkei is -0.9%, while the USJ-JPY is -0.1% to ¥103.12.

Mar. 4, 2014, 3:58 AM
- Japanese wages have risen for the first time in almost two years, with base pay inching up 0.1% on year in January, although overall pay dropped 0.2%.
- Still, the increase in base pay should be encouraging for a government that has been exhorting companies to increase wages as part of the battle against deflation.
- The figures come as business and union leaders negotiate salaries for the next fiscal year.
- The Nikkei closes +0.4%, while the USD-JPY is +0.4% at ¥101.82.

Feb. 28, 2014, 3:00 AM
- Japanese industrial production grew at the fastest pace since June 2011 in January, jumping 4% on month after a drop of 0.9% in December and surpassing consensus of +3%. Soaring production of transport equipment and machinery helped to boost output
- Construction orders surged 15.2% on year vs +4.9% previously.
- Retail sales leapt 4.4% vs +2.5% in December and expectations of +3.8%. On month, sales +1.4% vs -1.2% previously.
- Overall household spending +1.1% vs +0.7% prior and forecasts of +0.2%.
- The strong figures are not a total surprise, as a bump in economic activity has been expected ahead of a rise in sales tax in April, which is forecast to then drag on the economy.
- Meanwhile, core inflation, which excludes food prices, held steady at 1.3% on year in January, above consensus of 1.2%.
- Core core CPI, which excludes food and energy, stayed at a 16-year peak of 0.7%.
- Overall inflation slipped to 1.4% from 1.6% in December.
- The unemployment rate stayed at 3.7%, as expected, although the number of open positions increased to 1.04 for every person seeking work, the most since August 2007.
- The Nikkei falls 0.55%, while the USD-JPY is -0.4% at ¥101.70.

Feb. 25, 2014, 3:57 AM
- Despite widespread opposition, Japan intends to revive nuclear energy as a major source of electricity, the government disclosed today in a draft document about its long-term energy strategy.
- Japan's nuclear plants were idled following the Fukushima disaster almost three years ago, which has caused the country to significantly increase its energy imports. That, in turn, has acted as a drag on GDP.
- The Nikkei is +1.4% and the yen is -0.2% at 102.34.
- ETFs: DXJ, EWJ, FXY, YCS, JGBS, JGBD, JYN, NKY, DBJP, EZJ, EWV, YCL, ITF, JPNL, JGBL, JPP, JGBT, JPNS, HEWJ, JGBB, FJP, URA
Feb. 21, 2014, 7:36 AM
- Up 2.3% overnight, Japan's Topix reversed a 3% drop the night before, and capped its biggest weekly rally since November, up 3.3%.
- The Nikkei gained 2.9% last night. DXJ +1.1% premarket
- ¥2.6T in QE later, William Pesak notes one year of aggressive monetary ease has failed to lift living standards, nor has it convinced companies to boost paychecks. The only inflation Japan is feeling is the kind no one likes: Higher energy prices.
- BOJ Governor Kuroda's main achievement this year, argues Pesak, is to settle once and for al that the country's problem isn't the amount of yen sloshing around, but how it's used. Unless people borrow and banks lend, the economy won't revive. And don't forget the secular deflationary forces of an aging population and the rise of China.

Feb. 20, 2014, 2:42 AM
- Japan's trade deficit more than doubled to a record ¥2.79T ($27.3B) in January from ¥1.3T in December and exceeded consensus of ¥2.49T.
- Export growth slowed to 9.5% on year from 15.3% and sharply missed expectations of 12.6%.
- Imports, though, soared 25% vs 24.7% and 21.8%, driven up by the weak yen and significant energy needs because of the closure of the nuclear-power industry.
- The large trade deficit contributed to GDP expanding at a lower-than-expected 1% in Q4.
- "If the economy weakens further after a sales tax hike (in April), policymakers could resort to fiscal stimulus as early as summer," says economist Yasuo Yamamoto.
- However, the trade figures may have been affected by a rush to purchase foreign-made goods before the tax increase and by the Chinese New Year.
- The Nikkei is -2.15% while the USD-JPY is -0.5% at ¥101.80. (PR)

Feb. 18, 2014, 2:56 AM
- The Bank of Japan has surprised markets by expanding lending facilities that are designed to spur corporate investment by offering low-interest loans to commercial banks in the hope that they will lend the money to businesses.
- At a policy meeting, the BOJ doubled one program to ¥7T ($68B) and said individual banks could borrow twice as much under another facility.
- The BOJ also maintained its program of increasing the monetary base by ¥60-70T a year.
- The boosting of the lending facilities comes after data yesterday showed that Q4 GDP grew a less-than-expected 0.3%. Notwithstanding, the BOJ maintained its view that Japan is recovering moderately.
- The move helped weaken the yen and the Nikkei to surge 3.3%. The USD-JPY is +0.6% at ¥102.57. (PR)

Feb. 17, 2014, 2:48 AM
- Japanese GDP growth slowed to 0.3% on quarter in Q4 from 0.5% in Q3 and missed consensus of 0.7%.
- Annualized GDP softened to +1% from +1.1% and undershot forecasts of +2.8%.
- The GDP deflator, "which measures the change in prices of final goods and services and is considered as a key indicator for inflationary pressures," fell to -0.4% on year from -0.3%.
- Industrial production +0.9% in December vs -0.1% in November and consensus of +1.1%. On year, output +7.1% vs +4.8%.
- Capacity utilization +2.2% vs -0.5%.
- Japan's Q4 economic performance was kept down by strong import growth, which is a negative factor in GDP calculations, and a limited increase in exports.
- Imports +3.5% on quarter, exports +0.4%, business investment +1.3%, consumer spending +0.5%.
- The soft growth adds to pressure on Prime Minister Shinzo Abe to detail reforms that will make Japan more competitive. This is especially the case with the upcoming rise in sales tax in April.
- "This weak export performance gives us a sense of risk that the Japanese economy may significantly stall after April," says economist Takuji Okubo. "Abe really needs to be quick in showing to the market that he can deliver reform."
- The data comes a day before the Bank of Japan is forecast to leave its monetary policy unchanged.
- Despite the disappointing GDP, short covering helped the Nikkei end +0.6% following a day of choppy trading.
- The USD-JPY is -0.1% at 101.73.

Feb. 12, 2014, 3:14 AM
- Japan's core machinery orders, a leading indicator of capital expenditure, plunged 15.7% on month in December, with the fall far greater than expectations for a drop of 4.1%.
- On year, orders +6.7% vs consensus of +17.6%.
- Moreover, companies have predicted that core orders will drop 2.9% in January-March, which would be the first decline in four quarters.
- "Today's data on machinery cast some doubts on whether the fledgling recovery in business investment will continue," says economist Marcel Thieliant. The government has targeted increased capex as an important element in Japan's battle to end deflation.
- However, it's worth noting that the data is volatile and the big drop followed a gain in November.
- The USD-JPY is -0.2% at ¥102.46, while the Nikkei is +0.6%.
- ETFs: DXJ, EWJ, FXY, YCS, JGBS, JGBD, DFJ, JYN, NKY, DBJP, EZJ, EWV, YCL, SCJ, DXJS, JSC, ITF, JGBL, JPNL, JPP, JGBT, JPNS, FJP, JGBB
Feb. 10, 2014, 2:03 AM
- Japan's current-account deficit widened to a record ¥638.6B ($6.2B) in December from ¥592.8B in November, due to surging imports - particularly of energy - and the weak yen. Consensus was for ¥685.4B.
- Temporary factors also contributed to the increase in the deficit, including a sharp increase in demand ahead of a rise in sales tax in April.
- A surplus in income from overseas investment is helping to ensure that the deficit doesn't become permanent, which would hurt investor confidence. (PR)
- Consumer confidence slipped to 40.5 in January from 41.3 in December. (PR)
- Bank lending increased 2.3% last month, as in December. (PR)
- ETFs: DXJ, EWJ, FXY, YCS, JGBS, JGBD, DFJ, JYN, DBJP, NKY, EZJ, EWV, YCL, SCJ, DXJS, JSC, ITF, JGBL, JPP, JPNL, JGBT, JPNS, FJP, JGBB
Feb. 5, 2014, 2:14 AM
- Japanese basic wages adjusted for inflation dropped to 98.9 on a Labor Ministry index in 2013, matching the level of 2009.
- The fall stands in contrast to the government's efforts to encourage companies to increase salaries in order to strengthen the Bank of Japan's battle against deflation.
- The data came as business and union leaders started this year's salary negotiations. "Each company will do their utmost to increase wages depending on their earning situation," said Hiromasa Yonekura, the head of Keidanren, Japan's largest business lobby.
- The USD-JPY is -0.35% at ¥101.29, while the Nikkei closed +1.2% after falling sharply over the past few sessions.

This is EbenGregory.com…telling you Pacquiao wasn't really asleep, he was just meditating on unconsciousness.
Still a pac fan.
Damn its mighty quiet on here…where all the Pacquiao dick-riders at??

A video survey of 3 Party Savers' clients who hired Party Savers to perform lookalike characters. It would appear that none of these clients confused Party Savers with Disney; nor did Party Savers degrade Disney's goodwill. Uploaded on video sharing sites on the Internet, in the interest of preserving evidence.

If there's a scarier notion than an NFL cheerleader with a loaded high-powered rifle, it can only be a St. Louis Rams cheerleader with a loaded high-powered rifle. The Rams cheerleaders visited Afghanistan in Sept. to cheer up the troops and take a few potshots at local insurgents (below). They also, according to the story I read, were allowed to hold mortar shells. Oh Christ.
I was aware that most NFL teams have sent their cheerleading squads to Middle East war zones to boost the moral of our soldiers … the Buffalo Bills girls even cavorted in one of Saddam Huessein's palaces earlier this year. But I had no idea they were allowed to handle the weaponry.
More photos following the jump.
(This can't be good)
Five Rams cheerleaders visited Marines of 2nd Battalion, 3rd Marine Regiment at the Forward Operating Base Delaram, Afghanistan, recently. But I can't tell you exactly when; that's classified.
While being shown around the base the cheerleaders talked and took pictures with Marines they met. They also gave out posters they had autographed.
"It really shows their character – being willing to come out here and do what they do," Service Company Gunnery Sgt. Joshua T. Laverty said. "I'm really thankful for their generosity. What they do really helps boost morale."
They were shown the mortar pits and given an exhibition on the unit's adopted weapon system, the 120mm mortar, normally organic to the Army. During the exhibition of the 120mm system the cheerleaders had their photos taken with the mortarmen while holding some of the 120 mm rounds.
Of course it's a cause for concern when anyone associated with the Rams is found holding artillery ammunition. But I suppose the Marines know what they're doing.
Kudos to the NFL, the Rams and the ladies for doing this. We kind of take these trips for granted these days, but we shouldn't.
