Thank God, that means the old Jobs recession is over right? Can't have a new job recession unless the old one ends and the old one was nasty. Hopefully the new jobs recession will be much milder and shorter in duration. By the way...when did the old jobs recession end? I must have missed it.
Oh, I agree wholeheartedly. We are still in the grips of a recession that has America by the short hairs regardless of the propaganda from government and the lackey media.It is rather poignant, though, that more and more negative commentary is working its way into the mix. It's as though they are trying hard to put the people in mental conflict, to believe two separate and conflicting ideas both as truth as though they are tying a knot.
It is amazing that the ILO is quoted in this link. Where has "labor" been since 1913. Just banging around at the edges of the problem and never coming out to target the source. Apparently labor leaders as well have seen that "inflation" is beneficial to them, since it gives them a reason for being labor "leaders".There have been a few real public spirited political leaders in the United States that have actually strenuously pointed out that the Federal Reserve is THE problem. Looking back to the passing of the Federal Reserve Act one of its main opponents was Congressman Charles A. Lindbergh (the father of the aviator). Presently we have Congressman Ron Paul, whom the media is desperately demonizing at the behest of the banksters.Apparently it is quite easy to brain-wash populations into thinking that placing dead politicians on pieces of paper circulating as money is a substitute for the real thing. Fortunately there are still a few who are not so naïve, per the following link:tinyurl com/anOCCUPIERSstatments (replace the space with a "." on the address line for access)
But Henry Cabot Lodge, on the issue of the Federal Reserve Act, said, "...I had hoped to support this bill...". He goes on to say that he could not. This guy was wishy-washy from the start, unlike Lindbergh who saw clearly that it was an evil corrupt bankster take-over. But what otherwise should be expected from a Massachusetts politician. We are at a point in history where anger and fury should be expressed by the opponents of the corrupt Federal Reserve System, and not the niceties of the Beltway. Unfortunately the media, politicians and regulators appear to be captured by the banksters.Further, because of Lindbergh's opposition to the Federal Reserve Act he was physically attacked on the House Floor by the Bill's supporters. This information comes by way of a verbal statement made in an interview with Charles A. Lindbergh, Jr., who was interviewed a few years ago in a radio broadcast. Charles A. Lindbergh, Jr's story is a story in itself, as he claims to be the kidnapped son of Lindbergh, the aviator. Physical features resembling his father and a matching birth defect are part of his proof, but the Lindbergh family refuses to provide DNA evidence to disprove his claims. However, he has had brief contacts with the family and it is perhaps in this way that he learned of the attack on his Grandfather prior to passage of the Federal Reserve Act. There is no corroborating historical evidence that can be found on the Internet to this claim, however, so take it for what it's worth. Either that history has been sanitized from the record, or it is untrue. But there can be no doubt that there must have been significant bribery and/or pressure by the banksters of the politicians of the day to see that passage was successful.Your post was most informative, and a keeper. Interestingly McFadden seems to have missed the part that Lindbergh played as part of the opposition. But he does seem to have experienced the sort of attack known to be typical of thugs and criminals ensconced in positions of political power as mentioned at the end of your post, and as those mentioned above on Lindbergh,. Or maybe it was the difference in years from 1912 to 1934 that caused Lindbergh's name to be omitted.On your comment, "Let's not forget that others holding elective office have pointed out the The Federal Reserve IS THE PROBLEM." The "others" you speak about are long gone. We need many more like them CURRENTLY to undo the generational damage that continues. Ron Paul, for example, gets nothing but disdain from media talking heads, and stands out as almost the lone example of someone who would actually take on the task of removing the private Federal Reserve Banking System as the Government's bank.But the People are waking up, as follows:tinyurl com/anOCCUPIERSstatments (replace the space with a "." on the address line for access)
Let's not forget that others holding elective office have pointed out the The Federal Reserve IS THE PROBLEM.http://home.hiwaay.net/~becraft/mcfadden.html

I've commented more than once that African-American playwright AUGUST WILSON has been too long ignored in Cincinnati. That's changing with a near avalanche of works by Wilson, who died of liver cancer in 2005 at the age of 60. A series of free readings of his collected plays by CINCINNATI NEW LIGHT FESTIVAL begins 7:30 p.m. Friday at The Greenwich (2442 Gilbert Ave., Walnut Hills) with Gem of the Ocean. TAYLORE MAHOGANY SCOTT, who theater fans might remember from several seasons at Cincinnati Shakespeare five years ago, directs these performances. Wilson's 10 plays form a history of African-American life, each set in one of the 10 decades of the 20th century. Saturday the script is Joe Turner's Come and Gone (7:30 p.m.); then a double-bill on Sunday with Ma Rainey's Black Bottom (4 p.m.) and Wilson's 1990 Pulitzer Prize script, The Piano Lesson (7:30 p.m.).
The week continues with more 7:30 readings: Seven Guitars (Oct. 1); his 1985 Pulitzer winner, Fences (Oct. 2); Two Trains Running (Oct. 3); Jitney (Oct. 4); and King Hedley II (Oct. 5). The last reading offers excerpts from Wilson's final play, Radio Golf (4 p.m. Oct. 6). ENSEMBLE THEATRE OF CINCINNATI will fully stage Radio Golf (March 19-April 6, 2008). But before that happens, LYLE BENJAMIN and QUEEN CITY OFF-BROADWAY will present Jitney (opening Oct. 11 at New Stage Collective's space at 1140 Main St. in Over-the-Rhine); Benjamin also plans to produce Gem of the Ocean in the same space in January. If you've never experienced a Wilson play, you should; and if you've seen one performed, you'll be back for more. Info: www.freewebs.com/cincinnatinewlightfestival. ...
One of the newest members of the League of Regional Theatres (often referred to by its initials, LORT) is ENSEMBLE THEATRE OF CINCINNATI. ETC joins more than 70 nonprofit companies in an association of the nation's leading resident professional theaters. According to ETC's LYNN MEYERS, "As ETC continues to move forward, the LORT contract was a goal. It is a tangible representation of our dedication to professional and high performance standards." It's also a tangible step forward in improvement in what ETC pays its professional actors. "We believe in investing in the artists you see on our stage today and those who will appear in years to come." On Sunday, ETC concludes a run of its powerful season opener, David Lindsay-Abaire's Rabbit Hole; its 2007 production of Michael Hollinger's Opus won the Cincinnati Entertainment Award for outstanding drama. ...
THE BROADWAY SERIES opened its 20th season this week with a production at the Aronoff Center of My Fair Lady. (Tickets: 513-241-7469). Since 1987, more than 4.5 million people have seen touring shows here in Cincinnati. With the highest number of season ticket holders in the Broadway Across America network of 40 cities, Cincinnati has become the No. 1 city for touring shows. We have been among the first cities in the country to present The Phantom of the Opera, The Lion King, Les Misérables and Wicked. That tradition continues this year with tours of The Color Purple, Jersey Boys and John Doyle's Broadway revival of Sondheim's Sweeney Todd. ... If you want to play artistic director for a local theater, Jersey Productions, which makes its home at Covington's Carnegie Center, awaits your suggestions. Larry Smiglewski has asked fans of musicals to recommend up to three shows they'd like to see him stage. Entries are due to by Monday (send them to firstname.lastname@example.com). Submissions will be entered into a raffle for a 2008 season subscription, drawn on the opening night of Jersey's December production, Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat.

Oklahoma City Thunder: Perry Jones III scores team-best 14 points, but OKC loses at Utah
SALT LAKE CITY — It's true what they say about Perry Jones III.
He has a tendency to get lost on the court.
There are times when the big man out of Baylor camps out in the corner on offense, going multiple possessions without so much as touching the ball. On other trips, the 28th overall pick who was dubbed the steal of the draft is reduced to a screen setter.
But even as a regular afterthought, the rookie finds a way to make an impact. Though criticized for being passive, Jones, at least through two exhibition games, still has been productive.
He scored a team-high 14 points in 30 minutes on Friday night in the Thunder's 97-81 loss at Utah. Jones made six of 11 shots and flaunted his freakish versatility, knocking down two of his four 3-pointers at one end while defending multiple positions at the other.
"That's his strength," said Thunder coach Scott Brooks. "He is a versatile guy. He can score inside. He can score outside. He has a good feel for the game."
Already, you can picture how perfectly Jones fits in.
Jones' willingness to be the third or even fourth option offensively meshes flawlessly on a franchise that has plenty of firepower in Russell Westbrook, Kevin Durant and James Harden. He can be aggressive without being the center of attention and dialed in but not dominant.
"He loves to do the little things," Brooks said.
The fundamentals in Jones' game are what stand out most. Even as a rookie with a mere two preseason games under his belt, Jones has shown flashes of a foundation that has plenty of room for growth.
On one possession, he trails a break and walks smoothly into a 3-pointer from the top of the arc. On another, he catches it on the wing, jabs to his right before going into a textbook two-dribble pull-up at the left elbow.
Not bad for a youngster who's still figuring out where he belongs in the offense.
"To be honest, I don't know," Jones said when asked where he sees himself fitting in. "We've got a lot of guys that can score. But if I'm ever open and my teammates give me the ball and feel like I can shoot the shot, I'm going to shoot it for them."
Brooks, however, isn't quite sold on Jones jacking up so many 3s.
"He's definitely working on that," Brooks said. "We like guys that can spread the floor. But you don't want that to be his bread and butter shot because if you live on that line, that line is hard to (hit from) consistently for 82 games. But his versatility is what we like. He's able to get buckets around the basket, tip-ins, drop-off passes and from running the floor. But definitely, if he can make that shot that's an added bonus."
Study how Jones defends and you'll come away just as impressed.
Against the Jazz, there was a possession where Jones closed out to Marvin Williams on the wing, impeded his drive, forced a pass and then rotated out to Gordon Hayward as soon as Williams dished it off.
Those six seconds showed why Jones lists his feet as his best asset.
"That's what coach expects out of everybody on the team," Jones said. "We're just trying our best to make the extra effort on defense. That's what he wants us to do, so that's what I've been doing."
The biggest messages Jones said his teammates are trying to impress upon him during the games is staying aggressive, shooting the open shot and spacing out.
So far, the rookie hasn't had a problem doing any of the three — particularly the part about aggression.
"Once again, the motor question," said Reggie Jackson, who started in place of a resting Russell Westbrook. "I don't really know who started that, but the kid plays hard."

Went in for a sono last week at 6 weeks, 4 days they told me that they baby didnt have a heartbeart and was only measuring 5.5 weeks.
My HCG that Friday was 10103 and then on Monday 13940. Only went up 3837. She JUST called me today to tell me not to bother with another sonogram and that i was miscarrying. She could tell by the slow rise in numbers and told me to expect the baby to pass in the next 2 weeks.
This is my 4th loss, i am so devestated. This is so unfair!!
****UPDATE*****I had my sono on Friday, should have been 7 weeks 4 days, and there still wasnt a HB, with no visible growth to the fetus, however yolk sac was much larger, they confirmed that I am definately losing the baby. They want me to wait for it to come out naturally and they are monitoring my HCG levels. I just got the results from yesterdays HCG and they are now at 21,179. WHY ARE THEY STILL GOING UP!! If the baby stopped growing 3 weeks ago like they said then what the heck is going on!

Argh, this is killing me. Where is this I can't picture it!
Edit: Wait, is this just above the second ranch? I can't picture many places where the mountain is on the right as you climb up NG.

This is descending, about two miles up from NG kiosk
The ZigZag is the last two corners before the sweeping right that you can take at full speed.

Dan's Ditch is a tricky one. Your photo captures how off-camber it is.
You want to lean left to take a good line but the road leans right.
Then it also has bumps, divots & center line "bop dots" in odd places.
It is turn 2 in the Right-Left Zig Zag and it can mess you up.
You get there and mistake it for finally being at "the sweeping right that you can take at full speed".
Then S U R P R I S E its Dan's Ditch.
Too much speed into the Right of the Zig Zag sets you up for calamity in the Left out of the Zig Zag that is pictured.
Note the remnants of a white painted arrow between the fading center line and the front tire of the ambulance.
The organizers of the DMD put that there, and also other key markings in other corners.
This arrow is almost gone, but here it used to suggest a good line through this corner, around its bumps and divots.
As Lanceoldstrong, I know this corner almost as well as I know the "Dan" it is named for.
I crashed there two years ago on 6/20/12 and needed the ambulance and first responders too.
Get well soon oh forlorn latest victim of Dan's Ditch. You will remain in my prayers.

In Ascensu Est Verum
OH SHHHHHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIzzle! That's where I crashed a few years ago too. I was being stupid and trying to bomb the descent for a GoPro video. I actually went around the closed gate on a Red Flag day, and I guess I got what I had coming to me (I stupidly followed some dude who said it was cool, he knew the rangers and it was fine blah blah). On the descent I tried to go even faster than my normal bomber speed and took the corner way way too fast. I know that corner well, and knew I should not have taken it so fast. You are right, it is off camber, there's a pavement change complete with bump, and divots in the pavement. Just slid out on my left side, bike was totally fine except a few scrapes on the bar tape, left shifter, and the left side of my rear QR. My left shoe, hip, shoulder, and forearm, took all the impact. I remember rolling over once and literally eating the pavement, as I tore a hole in my upper lip and scraped a good layer or two off my nose. Don't know how I didn't lose any teeth, which really was the best part of the whole thing. Flesh heals...teeth do not.
I still have the video, but I can't watch it. My GF has and cringes every time she sees the crash. I have plenty of aftermath pictures of my shoulder, hip, and face where I took the brunt of the fall. Dan's Ditch huh...yeah it's an evil corner! The right hander just before it is a beautiful semi-high speed compression turn, then this POS shows up

Shogun IS a superhuman Iron-chinned Warrior. He's taken brutal bombs in multiple fights without ever being stopped proper by shots to the head. Bisping, on the other hand, went out from the very same punch that flattened Shogun in the third and he's hurt every time a punch grazes that Fragile Glass Mandible, clearly a discrepancy in Mandibular Fortitude. Glass Jaws exist, as do Iron Chins, and last night proved it. You're ignoring the obvious if you choose to continue pursuing this errant train of thought.
Jones didn't stop him, he quit. He tapped from strikes. He gave up, he waved the white flag, he said 'No Mas' He refused to go out on his shield and took the cowards way out. He's a no good heartless bum and has no place in the octagon. He is a disgrace and for you to say otherwise is ridicullous.
For the record I don't belive any of the above to be true but do you see how easy it is to be a complete ****? We could all do it but you're the only one that choses to. Now, again, **** off.

I would tend to agree. It was very much one of those 'spur of the moment' shots with no planning, so I had no flash available at the time - I don't count the on-cam flash as a flash :o)

That's indeed what panning is alright. Pretty much the same way I took this shot, with my feet and legs as the subject, shot from a rotating swivel chair. Or are you trying to intimate this is not a panning shot?

Comments about Pentax 8x21 Jupiter III Binoculars:
I was disappointed in the quality of the Pentax Jupiter III binoculars. I returned them to the store. They appeared to be cheaply made and not what I expected. The staff at the store was very courteous and professional.
Comments about Pentax 8x21 Jupiter III Binoculars:
Nice to be able to use a gift "right out of the box"! I sent this to my son in Oregon for Christmas. It helped save a baby bird the morning he oped the package. He loves them. They are easy to hold and adjust, and very handy on a hike. I'm very pleased with my purchase.

Sea-level rise and the
Bangladesh and Nile deltas
James M. Broadus†
The Bangladesh and Nile deltas are often cited as among the most vulnerable regions to sea-level rise driven by greenhouse warming (IPCC 1990a, b; Jacobson 1989b; Milliman, Broadus, and Gable 1989; Titus 1986). The geographic exposure of these two deltas, high population densities, poverty, and limited ability to defend themselves against natural disaster have placed them as archetypes among the world's "worst cases" of potential global-change impacts. Closer examination of these two cases, however, makes clear not only the importance of their vulnerability but also the huge uncertainties that remain about the impacts and the complex of options for response. As such, it emphasizes the critical role of uncertainties in global environmental-risk analysis, as argued in various chapters of this volume, beginning with chapter 1.
The presumption is that global warming, driven by the build-up of greenhouse gases from human activities almost entirely outside Egypt and Bangladesh and largely in industrialized countries, will increase the volume of water in the oceans (through a combination of thermal expansion and melting ice) and lead to sea-level rises throughout the world (IPCC 1990b; USNRC 1990). The impacts of sea-level rise include inundation of low coastal lands, shoreline erosion, loss or relocation of wetlands and beaches, increased exposure to storm surge and flooding, and increased salinity of rivers and aquifers (Bird 1986; IPCC 1990b). These impacts depend on the magnitude and pace of local relative sea-level change, of which change in global sea level is only one component (the

How will You Celebrate Simchat Torah?
The following is a guest blog post by Dina Mann, National Marketing and Outreach Coordinator for Reboot, an organization that engages and inspires young, Jewishly-unconnected cultural creatives, innovators and thought-leaders who, through their candid and introspective conversations and creativity, generate projects that impact both the Jewish and non-Jewish worlds.
Traditionally, this is a day of celebration. Dancing, music and even some drinking is quite common. The question is: What's everyone so happy about? Or a better question: How can we bring the spirit of creativity, excitement and joy from
Enter Unscrolled. It's a reinterpretation, a reimagining, a creative celebration: 54 leading Jewish writers, artists, photographers and screenwriters, plus actors, an architect, a musician and others grapple with the Torah, giving new meaning to the 54 Torah portions.
What is Unscrolled? First and foremost, it is a book that sums up the weekly Torah portion and then goes even further by creating interpretations that no medieval rabbi would think possible. More than a book, Unscrolled is a project that seeks to create a conversation around the Torah. With Unscrolled, we hope to give people who have never read the Torah, people who read the Hebrew Torah portions every week and people who think it's a whole lot of brisket an opportunity to engage with the text in a fun, entertaining and offbeat way.
Want to get in on the action?
B'reishit ("In the beginning…") is the first portion. Take some time to:
Bring your diverse voice to the conversation and get Unscrolled.

I am planning on eventually switching my website's database system from MySQL to NoSQL (in this case Cassandra).
From what I have understood so far about Cassandra, is that there is no such thing as a join, but rather just larger records that work more efficiently. I am by no standard an expert in NoSQL atm, i actually understand very very little about it and am very confused on how a lot of it works...
One of my goals for my web project is to switch to Python and Cassandra for a more advanced and speedier solution as my website is beginning to grow and I want to be able to scale it easily with additional servers.
Right now i am in the process of designing a new feature for my website, the ability to take files and create folders out of them. So far this is what I was originally using: How to join/subquery a second table (A question I just asked)
Then the people were suggesting to normalize the data and make it a 3 table system including one for folders, one for folders/files, and one for files. @egrunin answered my question and even gave me the info for the NoSQL, but i really wanted to check it with a second source just to make sure that this is the right approach.
Also are there any conversion tools for SQL to NoSQL?
So my ultimate goal is to design this folder/file system in the database (along with other features that I am adding) so that when I switch from SQL to NoSQL I will be ready and the conversion of all of my data will be a lot easier.
Any tutorials, guides, and information on converting SQL to NoSQL, Cassandra, or how NoSQL works is much appreciated, so far the Cassandra documentation has left me very confused.

Making a Difference through Research
Klug, Elizabeth A., Corrections Today
As chief of the Office of Research and Evaluation of the Federal Bureau of Prisons (BOP), Gerald Gaes has conducted and provided leadership toward many advances in correctional research. Gaes, who started his career with BOP in 1980, oversees the operations of program evaluation, statistical reports, management information and policy analysis. He has held his present position since 1988 and has been involved in a variety of policy implications, including population projections and prison impact, and research in the areas of inmate classification, inmate gangs, post-release employment and residential drug treatment programs.
"Any time you are spending billions of dollars on what essentially is an intervention of some kind, you should know how to do it in a smart, rational fashion," says Gaes. "Whether the interventions you propose or what you do actually is beneficial for public safety or public policy, or is cost-effective, research is one of the few ways you can establish this."
Gaes has been working on inmate classification research since he started his BOP career. Always looking for ways to improve the classification system, his work involves constant analysis of the relationship between classification indicators and inmates. Gaes says this research is important because it reduces the risk imposed on inmates and staff and also provides savings to the public.
Population projection is another area in which Gaes has been involved since the beginning of his career. During the mid-1980s, the Sentencing Commission was interested in understanding the impact that sentencing guidelines had on BOP's population. Gaes began working with the Sentencing Commission on a model that would simulate the criminal justice processes as well as the impact of the guidelines. During this project, Congress passed mandatory minimum sentencing laws, therefore, Gaes had to simulate the impact of the laws and developed a program that mimicked all the processes together. The program uses several data files of sentencing information and models the impact of changes in time served and changes of inmate population over time. "It allows us to give a fairly precise estimate of what changes in policy will do," says Gaes. …

Got a new eReader? Get started with OverDrive at AADL!
Is there a new Kindle, Nook, or other eBook viewer at your house? If so, you're probably wondering "How exactly can I get library books on this thing?" AADL offers eBooks through a product called OverDrive, and while it can be a little tricky to get through the process the first time, after you've been through it once it gets a lot easier. You can take a guided tour of the service, or look through the Quick Start Guide. If you have something other than a Kindle or a Nook, you also can check to see if your device is supported.
A few things to know about this service: first, some publishers don't offer their most popular titles to this service, and some don't offer any titles at all. So, the titles you're looking for may unfortunately not be available to libraries in ebook form. Second, publishers want ebooks to be handled the same way as print books, so only one person can have a "copy" of an ebook checked out at a time, meaning that you may have to place a request and wait for your turn on popular titles. You'll get an email when it's your turn to download the eBooks you've requested.
If you run into any trouble or have any questions getting library books onto your new eReader, you might start with OverDrive's My Help, or as always, feel free to contact us with any other questions.
Enjoy your new eReader, and thanks for using your library!
Hooray! I just got started with several mp3 audio books and two kindle books on my new tablet. I just needed to sync the kindle app, and there were the books I requested. The audio books are downloading, and I was able to start the first one playing even before the download was complete. I am pleased with the service.
I am however slightly concerned that the Android application for Overdrive asks for low-level log access, which is potentially a privacy concern. Any idea if this is temporary and will be changed in the future and/or whether I should be concerned about what Overdrive is doing on my tablet?

BUIES CREEK, N.C. (AP) — Campbell scored five of its 11 touchdowns in the first period in a 76-0 rout of Apprentice Saturday. The Camels (1-1) dominated Apprentice (0-2) in every phase, amassing 481 total yards to 65 for Apprentice. Campbell rushed for 397 yards while the Builders managed only 14.
C.J. Oates ran wild against Apprentice. The Camel back rushed for 139 yards and four touchdowns, the longest a 54-yarder. Jordan Cramer rushed for two scores against a porous Division III defense and quarterback Braden Smith passed for another one. About the only mistake Campbell made in the first half was a missed extra-point in the first quarter, when the Camels took a 34-0 lead and scored three more touchdowns before halftime.
Campbell also scored on a 10-yard blocked punt return and a 26-yard fumble return. Apprentice, which lost its opener 42-3 to Salisbury, has been outscored 118-3 this season.

IKEA flatpacks its way through downturn
ZAVENTEM, Belgium It takes Mikael Ohlsson five minutes - and the help of one other person - to assemble IKEA's Ektorp sofa.
After 33 years at the Swedish home-ware chain, the 54-year-old chief executive is an expert at configuring IKEA's famous flat-pack furniture.
But Ohlsson is not bragging about the fact that he can beat the assembly time the company itself advertises by some 10 minutes. What makes him proud is that the Ektorp can be flat-packed at all.
Seated on a "Blekinge white" example of the Ektorp in a cozily furnished exhibition room at an IKEA store in Zaventem, Belgium, Ohlsson recounts how, until recently, the popular couch also came packed in one of the company's biggest cardboard boxes - a pain for customers to squeeze into their cars or carry up narrow staircases.
But then in 2010, IKEA's product designers came up with a way of breaking the Ektorp into different pieces. The results was a package half its former size, which the company claims took some 7,477 trucks off the roads and cut its yearly CO2 emissions by 4,700 tons. Savings in production and transport costs knocked euro100 ($128) off the price IKEA charges its customers, Ohlsson pointed out.
It's innovations like these, the CEO says, that make IKEA so successful even in the uncertain economic times that some of its biggest markets are facing.
On Friday, IKEA reported a 10.3 percent jump in net profit to euro2.97 billion ($3.81 billion) for the year ended Aug. 31, even though it cut prices by 2.6 percent. Revenue rose 6.9 percent to euro25.17 billion in the same period and Ohlsson says the sales pace has been accelerating since then - even as stock markets around the world have taken a dive amid the worsening financial crisis in Europe.
"We are becoming a more natural choice when people are looking after their spending or are concerned about the future," says Ohlsson, his black trousers, black sweater and half-rimmed glasses all possessing the understatement of a Billy bookcase.
"A lot of people see that home is a very important place, maybe the most important place in their lives."
While sales have fallen in some Southern European countries like Greece, Ohlsson says IKEA has gained market share in all of them.
Over the past decade, the company expanded into big emerging markets like Russia and China, although 79 percent of its sales are still generated in Europe. In the next two or three years, IKEA wants to open stores in Serbia and Croatia and it has recently bought land in South Korea.
But the biggest opportunity may lie in India, a fast-growing country of around 1.2 billion people, that Ohlsson says IKEA has been eyeing "patiently but also impatiently" for years.
"The impatience is that of course there are a lot of people that are moving into the city, have better incomes and want to furnish their homes and that's why there is space for us," says Ohlsson. "And patient because we wanted FDI (foreign direct investment) legislation to change."
That change happened last week, when the Indian Commerce Ministry announced it would allow foreign companies that sell products under a single-brand name, such as IKEA, to own 100 percent of their stores there.
Ohlsson and his chief financial officer, Soeren Hansen, say the company is still studying the fine print, to make sure, for instance, that requirements to source a certain percentage of products locally won't interrupt its cherished value chain, where it controls design, production, storage and retail.
In contrast to other companies, which are under pressure to quickly produce new value for shareholders, IKEA can move more slowly. The retailer is not traded on the stock market, but is owned by a foundation controlled by the family of its octogenarian founder Ingvar Kamprad.

It's been a sad few days throughout Mississippi.
Ole miss walk-on football player Park Stevens died in a car accident Wednesday in Chickasaw County, MS. Now, Starkville is suffering, as well.
According to the Clarion-Ledger's Michael Bonner, Mississippi State incoming freshman and walk-on football player Mitchell Maxwell was found dead Thursday morning at his family's home in Murfreesboro, TN.
Maxwell's older brother found him while his parents and two younger brothers were out of town. At this point, the cause of death is uncertain. His family planned on moving him in his freshman residence hall on Monday.

Unhappy with the in-cell screen process used in production of iPhone displays which is plagued with lower touch sensitivity on screen edges, Apple is reportedly considering a return to glass-on-glass (G/G) touchscreen panels for an 'iPhone 7,' a technology it ditched with the release of the iPhone 5 in the fall of 2012.
According to a somewhat sketchy report published Wednesday by DigiTimes, Apple is currently sampling glass-on-glass touch samples for 2016 iPhones.
If true, the iPhone 7—or whatever a 2016 iPhone ends up being named—will feature better touch accuracy, improved Multi-Touch performance and better touch detection on screen edges. In addition, glass-on-glass technology would permit the company to develop a bezel-free iPhone and support 4K resolutions. Read More

Most, if not all, synthesis tools today support the use of Synopsys
DesignWare or a vendor specific brand of <vendor>Ware such as Ambit's AmbitWare,
Cadence's ChipWare and others. I have been frequently asked on the purpose of
<vendor>Ware being that many of the functions implemented by DesignWare
and its derivatives are readily supported by the tools today using much simpler
higher level constructs.
<vendor>Ware is used primarily in the following situations:
I will first cover (2), (3), and (4) while (1) will be covered later in more detail
(2) Reduce implementation time & risk for modules with limited or no
<vendor>Ware not only covers simple design that can be easily coded
using higher level constructs, but it also includes slightly more complex
designs such as Error Code Correction(ECC), Cyclic Redundancy Checker(CRC), as
well as others. These types of designs are well defined and well understood and
frequently provide little opportunity for companies to differentiate their
product hence it is sometimes attractive for users to take advantage of the
pre-implemented benefits of <vendor>Ware. Not only that, but one could
argue, and EDA vendors certainly do, that the reuse of such designs by many
customers results in less likelihood of bugs and issues with their
(3) Purchased IP
Several vendors also market larger IP as <vendor>Ware. This is
slightly different than what (1) and (2) cover. It refers to larger designs as
well as associated verification environments or additional verification IP.
This kind of vendor<Ware> includes PCI cores, USB cores, and others.
These kinds of <vendor>Ware can have a substantial cost associated with
(4) Legacy support
Frequently <vendor>Ware is used and supported as a result of legacy
designs and usage in third party IP
(1) To address shortcomings of the tools and/or specifications
To understand the main purpose of <vendor>Ware we need to go back some
time. Early synthesis technology did a poor job, or was simply not capable, of
optimizing datapath components such as adders and multipliers. Moreover,
standards like IEEE1364-1995(Verilog HDL) did not have comprehensive support of
signed arithmetic at the time. As a result, coding certain operations may have
been cumbersome and error-prone at times. EDA vendors came up with
<vendor>Ware to address these shortcomings in their tools and the
specifications of the time. <vendor>Ware essentially addressed the issue
by hard-coding and parametrizing certain operations. The recent
"designWare minpower" announcement by Synopsys is a good illustration
of an application of the <vendor>Ware solution. In that case,
<vendor>Ware addresses Design Compiler's power optimization
When & Why to Avoid <vendor>Ware?
<vendor>Ware was an adequate solution at the time but it has several
Restricts portability:
EDA vendors would love you to use their brand of <vendor>Ware (DesignWare,
AmbitWare, etc.) since to a large extent, it ties your implementation to their
Equivalence checking challenges:
It is a well-documented issue that equivalency checking is a weakness of
the <vendor>Ware solution. Vendors normally provide a behavioral model
for functional verification as well as logic equivalency. This model is
different from the synthesis model used internally by the tools and hence there
is always a chance for non-equivalency issues.
ECO difficulties:
Another aspect of <vendor>Ware
that can present challenges is that of ECOs since the synthesis model is, from
a user perspective, a black box hence making it difficult (or impossible in
some cases) for a user to implement and verify an ECO.
It is unnecessary!!!
Modern synthesis tools have addressed the original challenges, and coding
without the use of vendor<Ware> allows the tools the greatest degree of
flexibility to optimize. Modern synthesis tools can perform complex CSA
transformations, speculation, and many other optimizations. By keeping coding
at a higher level, the tool has more flexibility to optimize in the context of
the overall design goals and the surrounding logic and therefore yielding
better results. A frequently overlooked aspect of <vendor>Ware is highlighted
by "DesignWare minPower" - the original <vendor>Ware was not
created with power in mind so now you have to manually choose if you want the
version that gives the best area or the one that gives the best power. Higher
level constructs do not have this issue since the tools will optimize according
to the goals specified by the user as well as the context of where it is used.
The main benefits of avoiding <vendor>Ware are:
Please send me your comments and questions if you have any.
Good luck with your project.

Review: Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeroes
GUTHRIE — A full evening of strong performances at Friday's Gentlemen of the Road festival in Guthrie was capped off by the massive psychedelic blowout of Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros at the Cottonwood Flats festival grounds,
Following a hard-edged performance by Phosphorescent, the full-dozen members of the hippie-rock collective played a tightly constructed 90-minute set, immediately ingratiating themselves with the explosive horns of "If I Were Free" from the band's self-titled 2013 album.
Throughout the set, the band punctuated its visuals with an constant stream of swirling kaleidoscopic video. It was seamless, and helped complete the illusion of late-1960s California psychedelia.
As always, the Magnetic Zeros' not-so-secret weapon is singer Jade Castrinos, who provides the crystalline songbird counterpoint to Edward Sharpe/Alex Ebert's more ragged, soul-tinged vocals and the New Orleans falsetto of Crash Richards. When Castrinos sang, even for just a verse, the crowd went nuts for her.
But the biggest response came during the Magnetic Zeros' best-known song, "Home," which was given an extended treatment in which Ebert invited the audience to say what the song meant to them.
"I am so glad you came to this town," said one fully enthralled audience member. "I love this town and I love all of you!"
It was a sentiment to match the tone of the set, which felt, in all the right ways, like a 25,000 member "love-in."

Wasp Vs. Bee by TheFantasyMaker2Watch
©2014-2016 TheFantasyMaker2
I was tracking a Wasp during a macro shooting in the garden, when suddenly the wasp stopped at a flower in front of me, the wasp somehow targeted the bee from a distance and approached it with lightning speed, the bee was hopeless. So similar in shape yet different in soul, human story told by nature.
Daily DeviationGiven 2014-03-16
The contrast between the wasp and bee is brilliantly emphasised in the vivacity of the former. With stunning detail and colours, TheFantasyMaker2's Wasp Vs. Bee is an excellent photograph capturing the interaction between two insects. ( Featured by 3wyl )
Amazing capture!
wasps are jerks. awesome shot though
And the fight is on! such a clear and vibrant shot- very nice.
damn wasp.
Go bee go! what? I love bees ;3 they're so cute and fuzzy and they're a lot more merciful than wasps
*wasp picks up bee*
wasp: I can show you the world....
wasp: I can show you the world....
The details of the insects are wonderful and the colors are nice. Congrats.
Such exquisite detail - and those background colours! Excellent work.
Love the colors!
boy do I hate wasps so much, at least bees aren't as nasty and actually produce honey and pollinate
Fantastic shot! Congrats on the DD!
WOW rude, wasp. Your a jerk.
Really beautiful picture, I love the bright blurred background and the startling clarity of the wasp and the bee up close. It's nice to see their difference like this with them in the same picture. I like bees much more than wasps, but for this wasp I do love the bright yellow legs that fade to black as they connect with its body.
so fluffy
wasp: let us have glorious face-sex XD
congrats on the Daily Deviation
Also when I saw this picture I thought "bees are friends and wasp they just fuck everything up" and this: 31.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lk9…
sorry XD lol I don't like wasp as you can tell but love the colors of the picture and that both the wasp and the bee are in focus and very detailed you can really see how both bugs look like upclose

FINALLY! A proof on the differences between a bee and a wasp.
A fantastic and rare photography
A fantastic and rare photography
O_O Oh dear! I go with Wasp. Congrats on the DD!!
I think I'll take my chances with the Bee...
Just vibrant! Makes me shudder a bit considering the severity of my allergy (almost died), but I cannot help but put that aside to see the amazing quality of this.
Congrats on the DD!
Saw your comment and just have to ask.. why do they pick up dead bees? x.x
(very pretty picture : >)
(very pretty picture : >)
Daaang, that shot! Excellent work!
Amazing colors, I really like this. What are they doing? I somehow can't imagine bees and wasps interacting friendly with each other...
The bee is already dead since this kind of wasp wont/can't kill them itself, they tend to pick up dead ones.
no, the bee isn't dead, I was following the wasp all around and then he went to a bees area and he jumped over one of the bee drinking from the flower or what ever it was doing. it was realy somthing rare to spot.
Yes thats unusual indeed, how long did they fight?
Now that makes sense !
Yup, wasps tend to like meat for their young (dead insects hamburger), they like sweet (nectar, sugar beer ect) for themselves.
Thanks.I saw that you keep apiaries so you must know a fair bit.I have lots of bees and wasps around ( I have lots of different flowers in my garden)and I have noticed the wasps as well as bees going from flower to flower but never interacting like that in the photo that is why I found it so unusual.All the best ( looks like a great part of the world you live in!)
I do love my country "a bit cold atm though", only reason I know anything about honey bees is cause I keep a few colonies. Beekeeping is supposed to be a big thing in Australia, last I heard they are mite free.
Beautiful shot!
Congrats on the well deserved DD!
Congrats on the well deserved DD!
bees are fuzzy and more kind that wasps
Were they fighting or just being friends?Really unusual photo .Excellent !
Very nice work!

Mashed Potatoes with Garlic Recipe
If you'd like a new twist on mashed potatoes, try this recipe from Jennifer Adams of Plymouth, Massachusetts. She adds garlic to the potatoes and then places a cruet of olive oil on the table for guests to drizzle on the potatoes.
- 2 pounds potatoes, peeled and cut into chunks
- 8 garlic cloves, peeled
- 1 teaspoon salt
