LONDON (Thomson Reuters Foundation) – Targets for good governance, better job opportunities, environmental stability and less inequality need to sit alongside more traditional development goals as policymakers create a new agenda to follow the Millennium Development Goals, a survey of more than a million people around the world indicates.
Just as important, those targets must for the first time apply to rich countries as well as poor, respondents said. Rich nations, for instance, might be tasked with doubling their energy efficiency or cutting their disproportionate use of the world's resources, according to the survey, released on Tuesday by the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP).
"This is about broadening the perspective, and looking at the world as it is, as a very interconnected and interdependent place, where the rich countries cannot simply keep on with business as usual while giving a bit of overseas development aid to the poorest countries and there you have it. That's not good enough," said Olav Kjorven, U.N. Assistant Secretary-General and director of the Bureau of Development Policy at UNDP, in a telephone interview.
"If you're not addressing the issue of an atmosphere saturated with carbon, not addressing issues associated with unsustainable production and consumption patterns, not addressing the underlying issues behind the instability in the Middle East, which has to do with inequalities...we will undermine our chances of sustaining progress toward the social and other goals that the Millennium Development Goals represent," he said.
The UNDP consultation, carried out over the past year online, in national discussions and in door-to-door visits in 90 countries, aimed to assess what people see as priorities in replacing the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs), which expire in 2015.
The survey results aim to feed into an ongoing U.N. process to craft new "post-2015" development goals over the next two and a half years. It is due to gain fresh momentum later this month at a special event towards achieving the MDGs at the U.N. General Assembly in New York.
The MDGs are a set of eight global goals, agreed by world leaders in 2000, which set targets for reducing poverty and hunger, achieving universal primary education, promoting gender equality, and cutting child mortality, among others. Some targets, including those on child and maternal mortality and access to sanitation, are unlikely to be achieved by 2015 without much greater effort.
The new survey indicates that many people "continue to care deeply about" the MDGs – particularly on education and healthcare - and want these issues to be part of any new post-2015 development targets, Kjorven said. But respondents also emphasised that simple provision of services is not enough, and "we need to do better in terms of...quality issues, especially when it comes to education," he said.
The survey, which asked people to choose their top development priorities from a list of 16, produced some surprises. In third place, behind good education and better healthcare, was "an honest and responsive government", coming higher even than "better job opportunities" and well ahead of options such as political freedoms and gender equality.
Rising economic inequality around the world is also a worry for many, the poll showed.
"People are indignant at the injustice they feel because of growing inequalities and insecurities," the report noted. "They feel that the benefits of economic growth are distributed unequally ... They want their governments to do a better job representing them."
Demand for equality between men and women ranked in the bottom half of priorities, and action on climate change was the lowest priority. But "protecting forests, rivers and oceans" ranked in the top half.
Kjorven said he found it particularly surprising "how similar, by and large, the vision is" from people in very different parts of the world. "There are huge common denominators across incomes, across geographies, across gender," he said.
"It's interesting to see how far we've come as a global community in seeing our world as an interdependent world," he said. Global connectivity, through the internet and other media, has produced "a much deeper understanding around the world that indeed we're all bound together on this one planet", he said.
The survey found "very, very strong" support for including goals for rich countries on energy use and consumption, while poorer nations might get goals on universal access to energy, he said.
The results also made clear that dealing with problems, such as access to healthcare, without looking at the larger picture rarely works.
"It's obvious when we listen to people around the world that they see day-to-day challenges as an integrated whole," Kjorven said. For instance, a rural woman trying to access antiretroviral treatment for HIV/AIDS doesn't see threats to her physical security as a separate problem if the risk of attack prevents her from walking five miles to the nearest health clinic, he said.
"We have to get out of this silo way of looking at things," he added.
Getting agreement on broader new development goals, much less achieving them, won't be easy, Kjorven and other experts say. Rich nations may be reluctant to take on targets themselves, and some poor countries, particularly in Africa, worry that setting targets for everyone could threaten aid flows and blur the lines between donors and recipients.
Many countries also fear that making environmental commitments under new development goals could affect their negotiating position in the separate U.N. climate talks.
To add to these problems, winning any kind of new international agreement has also grown more difficult over the last decade or two, Kjorven said, as is evident from slow progress in climate change and free trade talks.
Putting together new development goals faces "some tricky politics", he said, though UNDP officials hope the survey – along with other reports, including one produced in May by a high-level panel - can help "build up the kind of urgency needed for the decision makers and governments" to move forward.
"Deals won't be made unless not making them becomes more painful than making them," he said. "You have to make it hurt to walk away from the tough issues."

That's why the speculators picked the wrong company imo to use as proxy for Spain...sort of stupid to equate Santander with Spain when 83% of its business is outside of that country. The fundamentals still there, hasnt gone away, business still booming in Latin-America, US, UK, Poland...
An old saying on Wall St is that the market can be wrong while discounting fundamentals, but is never wrong when discounting sentiment.
well, at least I know what my name is. You haven't learned yours yet. Like a cat, yuh?
ah ha! that's funny coming from a guy named "Gordon"....
well, one of the reasons for my success are people like you, who know nothing, but think you do.
what the heck are you talking about? Do you read your own stuff? If you did, you wouldn't write it.
and thanks for proving my point that you couldn't tell the difference b/n a balance sheet and an income statement.....
Gordon - i don't day trade with a 4x leveraged couple grand as you apparently do. I invest and as such was nimble enough to buy the core position when it tanked over the summer. I play with profits and thus have a margin of error built in to absorb the VAR changes. Where were you back in June? How much did you make on the run up to 13+? not much is my guess.
Are you watching the accumulation? I didn't think so.
Happy day trading buddy. I am here for the long ride.
The stock is down 5% pre-market. It is you who does not understand, not me.
That's why this selloff seems so speculative and really doesnt make any sense.
only 17% exposure in spain and even there their net interest income was up this quarter. 83% of business in UK, Lat-Am.
Exposure is measured by asset, not income. If the Spain business earns 0 dollars, it doesn't mean the exposure to Spain is zero, unless you have no business at all in Spain.
no exposure to ireland at all...only 17% of business is from spain, and spain showing it is not a PIG. Debt to GDP is 63% deficit is going down to 6.5%, this is better than US even.

The company sold 74.8m of its flagship devices in the final three months of 2015, below analysts' expectations. In the same period in 2014 the company sold 74.46m iPhones, meaning sales were essentially flat.

Female sexual dysfunction in female genital mutilation
"The impact of FGM on the lives of women and girls is enormous and often affects both their psychological and physical wellbeing"
"Many women are affected by FGM and though cultural acceptance is high, personal acceptance is not. The impact of psychology on the women's life and on FSD cannot be underestimated. But, the access to specialized post traumatic psychology services is very limited and it is therefore the duty of all health providers to ensure such care is available."
Many transgender men who have the capacity to bear children are faced with barriers in the healthcare system as a result of a lack of training.
Healthcare providers and staff are often unaccustomed to caring for any transgender people, let alone ones who may be pregnant, which results in obstructions in the vital care transgender men need during pregnancy.

Healthcare systems worldwide are experiencing a "new normal" as they face challenges that will characterise the next decade and beyond. The scale and complexity of these challenges is daunting. Tackling them cannot be done through doing the same things faster or 'better'. We urgently require new models, approaches, paradigms and solutions. Some are already emerging in practice. Some are being envisioned. All need to be circulated, discussed and tested. Medicine and healthcare are changing, nothing will stay the same.

I am currently developing an administrative suite using Ruby on Rails 3.2.
One of the tasks it needs to perform is the generation of contracts and invoices.
Because the application needs to accomodate multiple clients, I want each client to be able to upload some kind of template which dictates their personal style and layout. (i.e.: logo, company name, addr, etc).
I am thinking of letting clients create their own .docx contract templates using variables and placeholders which my application should replace whener a specific contract / invoice is generated. Note that the people creating the templates will not be tech savvy.
How should I be able to accomplish this? Note that there will placeholders which can be replaced directly as well as repeating elements which should be contained in tables. The number of these elements can vary from contract to contract.
After having considered many solutions, gems and examples available I am unable to find one which works for my situation. This is what I have tried so far:
- Docx manipulation by extracting document.xml and replacing placeholders. This is not very robust and reliable as spell check or line breaks split up the XML nodes containing the placeholders.
- wicked_pdf and other html > pdf generators: Not viable as I cannot expect my clients to supply custom css to style their documents.
- Prawn: More tailored towards creating documents from scratch. Template functionality simply does not do what I need and does not support replacing placeholder data and repeating elements
- Google Drive: Hand off template to Google and use the Drive API to modify document and pull PDF when done: Add extra reliability on external service. More of a last resort. Really hope to figure out a solution I can run locally.
I get the feeling I am missing something obvious. I cannot imagine that such a mundane task as document generation is so complicated when using Ruby on Rails.

Help! We started Culturelle probiotics yesterday, and today my DD had mucous with some blood in it in her diaper (not during her poop, but alone). She has never had anything like this; it looked like jelly with some blood in it. Has anyone heard of this with the probiotics??? I thought they were supposed to help the digestive system, not upset it more - or is there an adjustment period where their systems get more disturbed first and then get better? She has been off of antibiotics since Monday. I have the Soloray ones in my fridge - should I switch to those? Maybe this is just too much for her?
Culturelle - 2nd day and mucous/blood!
Just remember that if it was the antibiotics, probiotics will help her system recover faster b/c they replace the heathly bacteria that the antibiotics kill.
Mom to 2 happy, healthy babies: Evangeline 3/28/07 &� Roland 12/6/08
Good point...it is tricky, because the probiotics will help if due to the antibiotics. But, all this started the day after we started the probiotics. So, they might help if we take them or might make things worse, I wish I knew for sure.
Whatever happened after you stopped the probiotic? Did the symptoms go away? My daughter is going through a similar thing... stopped amoxicillin on Tuesday. Started probiotic (culturelle for kids) that night. Has been vomitting since on probiotic at least once a night. She has been extremely fussy and developing a rash. I stopped the probiotics on Sunday and her mood has been better and vomitting stopped almost immediately. Can't pinpoint what caused the reaction in Culturelle, but I am not going to use them anymore.

Christine, did you ever find out more?
My LO reacted to Culturelle for Kids Dairy-Free -- bloody diarrhea, etc. I called them at the time (this past summer) and they assured me that their product was 100% dairy/soy free but I'm skeptical.
Thanks for asking. We are going through a confusing and stressful time. We stopped the probiotic last Friday. She did have anal fissures, so we treated them with bacitracin and nystatin at the ped's recommendation. They seem better. The diarrhea/smell/mucous/blood continued through the weekly, but it slowly subsided. She pooped only once yesterday, so I thought we were in the clear. Then today, her babysitter said she had one big poop with a distinct, unusual smell.
We spoke with the GI, and he wants to test her for C Diff. Now, she was tested for this when she was 2 weeks old and was positive, but at the time (different GI doc) did not think it made sense to treat her because she was behaving normally and didn't have alarming symptoms. Interestingly, this was also following an amoxicillin usage, yet they called the blood/mucous a milk allergy and have treated her for the milk allergy only ever since. Well, now the new GI wants to test her and, if it's positive, treat her for C Diff. I am so reluctant to treat her because these are serious antibiotics. But, if she has the infection, it needs treatment, which is either a) the strong antibiotic, or b) probiotics - which I can't tell if they are helping or if they are the root of the problem!
I did call Culturelle, and they told me that pork muscle is the protein source used to grow the lactobacillus, but they assured me that it was 100% removed from the final, freeze-dried product. I still find it way too much of a coincidence that all of her problems started one day after starting Culturelle. But, if she has C Diff and we don't want to start the heavy meds right away, probiotics are the way to go. It is a very tricky balance, and I think that if I asked another GI's opinion (my first GI), they would not treat her. Even though probiotics are supposed to be very good, they are still bacterial cultures - and I can't help but wonder if my DD's system interpreted the bacteria as foreign, even if it was a good bacteria. I find this all very tricky and complex. I hope your DD's vomiting gets better and that she feels better soon. I will not use amoxicillin in my DD anymore unless there is absolutely no alternative.
Interesting -- I hope that they figure it out for you and that your LO is better soon. I am scared to death to ever try another probiotic b/c my dd (MSPI+) reacted badly to two. Pork muscle -- ick.
Hello! Clodi, what ever came of your daughters issues? I am dealing with almost identical issues with my 2 yo daughter as wee speak. I am drained from trying to research the possible causes, My daughters ped isn't acting like this is a big deal...Meanwhile, I'm freaking out!! I started her on Culturelle almost a week ago, due to a positive test for c.diff, after a round of broad spectrum antibiotics for an ear infection. Right after she was done with the antibiotics, the mucusy, yellow/golden diarrhea started. She was put on flagyl, but didn't make it a day becuase of stomach cramping, and bad side effects. Finally after 3-4 days of HELL, and a burned bottom, the diarrhea subsided. Then, her appetite picked back up and she started pooping every other day, instead of 7 times a day! I thought we were in the clear until yesterday. She had a dark green SMELLY poop. After her third poop, I called the ped, crying, I might add. They assurred me she will poop like a duck because the probiotic is "cleaning" her out, and their is no reason to take her off of it. Ok, no biggie...wrong! She continued to poop constantly green to green yellowish poop until bed. The last one had blood in it. Ugh! I don't know what to do! I have researched my butt off, and the only thing that seems to fit her situation is, temporary lactose intolerance. Which would cause the diarrhea, mucus...and the blood. I read your posts and was like "Yes!!" So, please fill me in on what you ended up finding out was wrong with your daughter. I would appreciate it so much! I am exhausted from trying to figure this all out! Thank you.

The results suggest Iran's next parliament will be more supportive of President Rohani's drive for economic reforms, but conservatives will remain a powerful force.13:31 30.04.16 | 0 comments
Aschkenazi Jews have specific rare genetic diseases, The Same is true for Mizrahim Jews who have different rare genetic diseases, For Israeli Beduins who have other rare specific genetic diseases, for North African Jews (who are mixed to some extent with sephardic jews) and have some specific rare genetic diseases such as the periodic disease, Hemochromatosis...... What distinguish jews as a singular genetic population is the sharing of a huge number of what is called SNPs in modern genetics. The high level of endogamy in all jewish communites based on religious , cultutural bases and on persecutions prohibiting intermarriages explains both the occurence of specific rare diseases mostly caused by marriages between first cousins or second cousins. It turns out that All these diseases are autosomal recessive which further confirms the strong role of endogamy and also explains the constitution of a huge number of haplotypes common to most jews. It is also true that muslims anchristian palestinians have many of these haplotypes. What makes the genuine differences between Jews and other human groups is the combination of a specific gentic background which does not provide them any superiority or inferiority and the adherence the sense of a common history, of for a liong time a strong adherence to the same religious beliefs , to the same cultural traditions......... Mr SAND has problem of recognizing himself as jew ....it is his personal problem......All nations are in some ways a creation , an invention . The fact that people recognize themselves asJews define them as Jews ........Mr SAND should read the Books of Dominique Schnaper the Daughter of Pr Raymond ARON the prominent French Jewish philosopher. He was an atheist. He was not Israeli but felt strongly connected to the destiny of all the jews asq he wrote it clearly in one of his books. There are jews who believe in God and other who do not, there are Jews in the diaspora strongly connected to the destiny of the Israeli nation and other not at all......Bruno KREISKY declrared that he had the right to have Hewish parents and not no be Jew at all and it is absolutely true; VANUNU became a christian . He is not anymore Jew....Monseigneur LUSTIGER who was A French Catholic required the KADDISH to Be told after his Death with the sand od Israel in his coffin........and he always said that he felt jewish ........and he was genuine and did not try to convert any jew.....on the contrary........Whatever they are , Jews now after the SHOAH or extermination of their families by the NAZIS they share more than ever a common destiny. Jews according to SARTRE were defined by THE OTHERS ......he did not understand that there is a deeply positive content in the jewish identy....the Jews are not defined by the others. They do exist per se......THey have a common will to persevere in their being. As Far as Shlomo sand writes in hebrew and has an israeli passport , if he goes anywhere whether he wants is or not he will be considered as a Jew....... Germany is an invention , France is an Invention , Russia is an invention as much as ISRAEL and JEWISHNESS.....the language Mr Sand speaks and writes is Hebrew and this language is largely based on the hebrew of the the Jewish bible.....The development of Cultural and national identities is a complex process which occurs over large periods of time......THis or theses processes are based on accumulation of ongoing inventions added to a core basis. In The Case of Jews, the Core basis was a Religion called The Religion of Moses.......The Law of moses is not sufficient to define this religion ADDITIONS of messainic texts , of texts of "wisdom" . In addition comments throughout centuries and diverse religious evolutions constitute now the Jewish religion with many denominations.....and internal conflicts Jews as all human beings have their own contradictions

- worth the money by Cougar74 on 1/2/2012
I had and listened to this bible for a year and a half. it is absolutely wonderful. well worth the price. would still be listening to it unfortunately others thought it was wonderful as well and stole it. so now I only have the 1 cd that was in my cd player at the time. and I listened to that one cd over and over again as it was done so
well. between the dramatic speaking and the music this draws you into the stories of the bible. if you have ever tried to read the bible in a year and not succeeded this will help you because it is not just the word of god, it is also very entertaining. worthy of family time listening with the whole family. it is done in the style of old time radio shows. I can't wait for the day when I can replace it and listen to the whole bible again.

Wild, Chaotic, Unencumbered. Derived from ancient naval slang. The hook referred to the anchor. In violent storms, if the anchor would break loose from the seabottom (or break loose from the anchor chain - ref "Off the chain.."), the ship would be uncontrolled, free and wild. Utter chaos. Can you imagine anything more wild than a uncontrolled ship in a hurricane?

Sabers knock off Indians, Knights at Maquoketa Invitational
By Ross Eberhart
Sports editor
There proved to be no easing into the season for the Central volleyball team.
Taking part in their first competition of the year, the Sabers competed in five matches during Saturday's Maquoketa Invitational.
And it proved to be a winning experience all around. The Sabers won a pair of matches at the meet and also gained some valuable experience on the court.
"It was great for the girls to finally get started and see their hard work pay off," Central head coach Peggy Kuehn said. "It also gave us the opportunity to see what we really want to focus on in the upcoming practices."
Needing to replace three starters, it took some time for the Sabers to gel on the floor and Central's first opponent, Cascade, took advantage with a 21-10, 21-12 victory.
The Sabers finished the match with eight kills with senior Katie Irwin, junior Olivia Haack and sophomore Amanda Brainerd accounting for two each (Abbey Grau and Ellie Ladehoff had the others). All eight kills were assisted by Mackenzie Kuehn.
Senior libero Stephanie Schrader led the team with four digs (Irwin had two of her own), while Brainerd was able to block one Cougar kill attempt.
The Sabers began to click in their next match with Camanche. Central jumped out to an early advantage in game one before the Indians answered with their own rally to tighten things up.
The two teams traded leads until a late Camanche push gave the Indians game point. Central, though, extended the game by getting a side-out and then scored again to tie things up.
The Indians broke the tie and were again a point away from ending the first game, but Central responded once more. The teams traded points one final time before the Sabers broke the game's last tie to make it 24-23. This time, Central was able to follow up with the deciding point for a 25-23 win.
The teams remained close early in game two, but Central created some separation in the middle of the contest and was not threatened the rest of the way as the Sabers finished off their victory with a 21-18 win.
Irwin paced the Saber attack with seven kills, while also leading the team with seven digs.
Haack and Becca Grell added six digs apiece with Schrader chipping in four of her own. Haack had three kills as well and so did both Brainerd and Grau.
Kuehn had 12 assists in the game and also led the Sabers with four aces. Haack added two with Irwin and Schrader coming up with one each.
Brainerd and Haack both came up with three blocks with Grau and Irwin having one each.
The drama did not stop there for the Sabers, who followed up their victory over the Indians with a three-game thriller against North Cedar.
The first game set the tone as the two teams battled right down to the wire with Central pulling out a 22-20 victory to grab the early advantage.
The Knights answered back from the setback in a big way as they toppled Central 21-14 in game two to send the match to a deciding third game.
Both teams worked hard to be the first to reach the necessary 15 points, but when one did, the match continued due to the need to win by two.
The Sabers and Knights found themselves not only tied at 15, but 16 and 17 also before Central finally was able to collect two consecutive points to end the game.
Grau and Irwin combined for 15 of the Sabers' 20 kills (the former had eight and the latter seven) with Haack chipping in three of her own.
Schrader paced the defense with 10 kills, while Irwin collected six, Haack four and Grau and Grell three. Brainerd, meanwhile, had four blocks and Kuehn piled up 19 assists.
Haack served up three aces in the victory with Irwin adding two.
The Sabers followed up their win with two more close games, this time with 15th-ranked Center Point-Urbana as their opponent.
Unfortunately for Central, both games went to the Stormin' Pointers (who finished second at the tourney behind Clinton) in a 21-18, 21-16 setback.
Brainerd and Irwin both had four kills in the match with the former adding two blocks and the latter coming up with nine digs. Schrader chipped in eight digs with Kalyn Bowen notching both three digs and three aces.
Kuehn had 11 assists in the game, while Grau and Haack both served up a pair of aces.
At 2-2, the Sabers were paired with a familiar foe in its placing match at the meet -Camanche, who had also gone 2-2.
The rematch between the two squads was reminiscent of the first meeting with a tight first game giving way to a more comfortable margin in game two.
Unfortunately for the Sabers, the roles were reversed in the second meeting as a motivated Indian squad took game one 21-19 and then used the momentum to take game two (21-13) and the match.
Irwin had six kills in the game with Brainerd and Grau chipping in five apiece and Haack three.
Kuehn assisted on 17 of the Sabers' kills, while Schrader and Haack came up with four and three digs respectively. Brainerd finished her tournament with another block (she had a total of 11 for the day) and Irwin came up with three aces.
"Amanda did an excellent job in the middle blocking position," Kuehn said. "And I was really happy with our ball control, it allowed Mackenzie to keep our offense more balanced.
"We know we need to focus and improve on our mental errors," the Central coach added. "Once we take care of the small things, we will continue to see more success."

I had an u/s today because I was having some pressure and I was just worried in general about lack of symptoms.
They did a regular one first and couldn't see much, so then they did the inner ultrasound. They found the sac and the baby! Praise God!
The heart rate was 171 bpm. The dr said that was great. It seems really high to me. Does anyone have any experience of this?
I am 6w2d

Hmm.. Theres been quite a few great right hands in the heavyweight division. The ones that really come to mind is Lewis' lethal rights that were so devastating against Ruddock, Tyson, Grant, and Rahman. Also, Marciano's Suzy Q that knocked Louis through the ropes and Walcott nearly deformed. And last but certainly not least, the awesome classic Tyson right to the body followed by the right uppercut. Ask Ferguson and Bruno about that one. But, I'm not sure if theres a name for it, though.

I know that it isn't popular to mention him, but Wladimir Klitschko's right cross would be a serious danger to anyone in the ring with him. He throws it with both power and accuracy.

Joe Louis had all the right hand punches down very well. Marciano's right cross was devasting and he is one of the last fighters to actual throw a cross shot! Not a punch you see fighters work to get in position to throw or take advantage of their opponents when they move their heads into that lane. Big George had the heaviest right hand to me, his arm and shoulder alone was enough to put a man out!! Ray.

P4P Marciano and Tyson had two of the most powerful overhand rights of any heavyweight. They put everything in it, and with Tyson it was coupled to blinding speed and explosiveness. Louis had an extremely crisp overhand right and an equally crisp right hook.
Of the taller fighters Lennox, Foreman, and Wlad for sheer power, Ali for snap and versatility. Shout out to Holmes as well.
Strong champion.

On Every Corner, Ports After the Storm
Published: September 26, 2001
(Page 2 of 2)
Gramercy Tavern was seating in only two of its four dining rooms on Friday at lunch, so both of them looked fairly busy even though they were half-empty. But by the end of lunch I had decided it was just to keep the waiters' running to a minimum. The experience still made me realize why the busiest restaurants everywhere tended to be the more casual places. High-end waiters don't seem as agile as those in diners; an extra table or two can throw them off. The restaurateur may get caught with his schedules down, but the diner still pays $150 for lunch. No wonder so few risked it.
But Gramercy Tavern was the exception, along with Eleven Madison and Mesa Grill, where the bartenders were negligent at best. Everywhere else I went last week, there was almost a surfeit of service. Joe's Shanghai on Sunday, which was the most deserted I have ever seen it, gave me a table to myself, defying Chinatown custom. The waiter was completely solicitous, without the usual impatience bordering on condescension I get because I wield chopsticks with four thumbs.
At both Pastis and Balthazar, the hosts and the waiters were unnervingly welcoming and friendly. The waiter at Pastis not only explained most of the menu when I asked about eggs hussarde but also returned to see how I liked his recommendation. He took the time to explain every cocktail on the brunch list to the very young couple sitting next to me.
Even when things looked normal last week, though, the experience was altered. The kitchen at Jean Georges usually resembles a ballet studio, with chefs moving fluidly with their copper pots and white plates. But on Saturday night, there was a rushed jerkiness to their movements, a sense that the young cooks were under siege from the suddenly full dining room. Whether from understaffing or anxiety, it was not something a designer envisions showing off when he installs an open kitchen.
And my little odyssey also made clear that the scourges will always be with us. Limousines large enough to hold everyone eating at Patria on Thursday night were clogging Park Avenue South; swaggering guys with cellphones and cigars clogged the entrance to Angelo & Maxie's and fouled the bar at Balthazar.
Interestingly, three of the emptiest restaurants on Thursday were those owned by chefs who spend more time in front of the camera than behind the stove: Union Pacific, Mesa Grill and Bolo. Maybe it was just a coincidence, but Mario Batali, who is more often spotted eating at the newest restaurants in the city, was rooted like a redwood in a prominent position at the bar at Babbo all Saturday night.
More than his reassuring presence made Babbo feel like the right restaurant for a hard time, though. The bartender said Greenwich Villagers see it as a neighborhood hangout, but the crowd, young and nervous or prosperous and demanding, did not look as if it had walked in from nearby brownstones. Still, there's a womblike feeling to it that is missing at Mesa Grill, where the cavernous room needs hordes of diners, or Jean Georges, which has all the intimacy of the Metropolitan Museum.
People were craving warmth last week, not willing to settle for the next new thing. Artisanal was about two-thirds full on Thursday, but it looked as inviting from the outside as Edward Hopper's ''Nighthawks.'' More established places beckoned. Not surprisingly, Les Halles had a line out the door.
And restaurants that merely look as if they've been around forever somehow seemed most reassuring. Pastis was the sunniest, most energized room in which I spent time last week, despite the hole in the skyline that was so visible from the sidewalk. Everything about it made me realize what it is that draws New Yorkers like me out of the house, away from takeout and the television, even when things seem darkest in the world. We don't need to eat great food. We just love a parade.
The sleek, buffed people streaming into Pastis on Saturday afternoon were all dressed up and ready to treat the room as a runway. The cleavage on men and women both, the buzz of conversation, the clank of glasses and flatware, the general bustle all made this the best show off Broadway.
Babbo went it one better, though, in its bonding capabilities. Within minutes of wedging ourselves onto the last bar stool, a friend and I were sharing dessert with two French women on one side and sparring with a good-looking guy just in from Los Angeles behind us. As always, the conversation came down to food and restaurants. Is Odeon open? Is Jean Georges better than the French Laundry? Is Asian cooking inevitably better on the West Coast?
Only when we walked outside did we remember that a terrible thing had happened. All the way home in the cab, the city smelled as if it was made of plastic and was melting. But for a few short hours, with food, wine and conviviality, a restaurant had been able to provide what New Yorkers expect most: nourishment and diversion in nearly equal proportions.

Romania Secures €23 B in EU Funding over 2014-2020
The European Commission has adopted a Partnership Agreement with Romania paving the way for investing EUR 23 B in total Cohesion Policy funding in the country over 2014-2020.
According to a statement issued by the EC on Wednesday, the agreement is setting down the strategy for the optimal use of European Structural and Investment Funds for growth and jobs in Romania, which joined the bloc in 2007 together with Bulgaria.
Romania also receives EUR 8 B for rural development and EUR 168 B for fisheries and the maritime sector until 2020, the European Commission said in a press release.
"The EU investments will help tackle unemployment and boost competitiveness and economic growth through support to innovation, training and education in cities, towns and rural areas," the EC said.
"They will also promote entrepreneurship, fight social exclusion and help to develop an environmentally friendly and a resource-efficient economy."
The European Commissioner for Regional Policy, Johannes Hahn, commented: "Today we have adopted a vital, strategic investment plan that sets Romania on the path to jobs and growth for the next 10 years.
And Commissioner for Agriculture and Rural Development, Dacian Ciolos, added:''With the adoption of the Partnership Agreement we have achieved an important step in creating the strategic framework for a successful implementation of all European Structural Investment Funds in Romania."
Bulgaria's Partnership Agreement with the European Commission is expected to be signed by the end of this week, most probably on Thursday, the Bulgarian National Radio reported earlier this week.

Floating Eco House by Monika Wierzba is Low-Impact, Adaptable Prefab Home
Posted By Helen Morgan On March 23, 2012 @ 3:47 pm In Architecture,energy efficiency,Environment,Prefab Housing | 1 Comment
Faced with the issue of overcrowded city centers, Monika Wierzba has designed this sustainable floating eco house that makes bobbing around on the water look like an idyllic way to live! The low-impact modular building recycles rainwater, features recyclable and recycled materials, and harnesses solar panels to generate electricity and heat.
One of the most important features in a floating house is water management [1], so Wierzba has equipped the building with a rainwater recovery system and biological filter systems in order to be able to use the surrounding water. A waste water collection tank is situated at the lowest level of the house, and about 80% of the waste water is converted into gray water.
The floating house has a simple design that can easily be transported by land or by water. By harnessing modular design the designer has ensured that any change in the room layout or partitions could be a DIY job with no need to hire professionals. The rooftop is covered with solar and photovoltaic panels, which generate heat and electricity. Underfloor heating also helps to keep the construction warm and snug, reducing heat loss.
The mobile structure is fully adaptable and can be rearranged for different environments, making it a flexible floating house. The project's lightweight, steel frame construction is based upon foundations made from hydro concrete. The rest of the building is constructed from prefabricated elements, which create less waste during construction, and all the materials used are non-toxic, locally sourced, and are either recyclable or recycled.

Check out these bargain stocks
Downsizing may be appealing, but consider these first
Join the NASDAQ Community today and get free, instant access to portfolios, stock ratings, real-time alerts, and more!
On Nov 27, we upgraded
Compuware Corp.
) to Outperform based on its improved prospects. Compuware Corp
focuses on software and services, for the information technology
(IT) industry worldwide. The company became a Zacks Rank #2 (Buy)
stock based on improving fundamentals.
Why the Upgrade?
Compuware reported second quarter fiscal 2014 earnings of 9
cents per share, which beat the Zacks Consensus Estimate by 3
cents. Earnings (including stock-based compensation and related
tax effect) jumped 49.6% from the year-ago quarter and 31.8% from
the previous quarter. The strong earnings growth was primarily
driven by lower cost and improving margins.
Following the release of second quarter 2014 results, the
Zacks Consensus Estimate for third quarter has gone up 9.1% to 12
cents per share over the last 30 days. Moreover, the Zacks
Consensus Estimate for fiscal year 2014 and 2015 has gone up 2.7%
and 4.3%, respectively over the same period.
What is the cause for the strong positive bias on the
Compuware's growth story looks compelling. Moreover, as per
the latest report released by industry research firm IDC in Aug
2013, IT spending in Western Europe is expected to increase
significantly at a compound annual growth rate of 7.4% over the
2012-2017 period. We believe, this is going to benefit Compuware
as well.
Management provided a modest revenue growth outlook for the
upcoming quarter. We believe that the ongoing restructuring plan
will benefit the company's profitability going forward. Moreover,
the debt repayment measures implemented by the company will help
it in the long run.
Additionally, strategic partnership and acquisitions will also
boost top-line and edge out competition in the long run. These
are reasons, which compel us to upgrade our recommendation from
Neutral to Outperform.
Other Stocks to Consider
Besides Compuware, other stocks worth considering in the
technology sector include
Netflix Inc.
) and
SanDisk Corp.
) having a Zacks #1 Rank (Strong Buy) and
Qihoo 360 Tech Co Ltd.
) having a Zacks #2 Rank (Buy).
