Indian Stocks Drop to 1-Month Low as Manufacturing Growth Slows
Indian stocks fell to their lowest level in a month after data showed manufacturing expanded at the slowest pace in nine months in August and as the political standoff between the government and the opposition continued.
Jindal Steel & Power Ltd., the third-largest producer by market value, slumped to the lowest level in more than three years. The purchasing managers' index slid to 52.8 from 52.9 in July, HSBC Holdings Plc and Markit Economics said today. A number above 50 indicates growth. Tata Power Co., the biggest non-state electricity generator, lost 2 percent.
The BSE India Sensitive Index, or Sensex, slid 0.3 percent to 17,384.40 at close, the lowest level since Aug. 3. The gauge lost 2 percent last week, its first weekly decline in five. The Bharatiya Janata Party, the main opposition party, stalled parliament for a ninth day, demanding Prime Minister Manmohan Singh to quit after the nation's chief auditor on Aug. 17 found the government may have lost $33 billion awarding coalfields without holding auctions.
"The economy is faced with multiple challenges," Deven Choksey, managing director at K.R. Choksey Shares & Securities Pvt. in Mumbai, said by telephone today. Still, "the move on GAAR is rational and could pave the way for more equity inflows and also for FDI money into India."
The Sensex has increased 13 percent this year as foreign funds have pumped in $12.3 billion into Indian stocks. Overseas investors sold a net $26.3 million of equities on Aug. 31, the first sale after 23 straight days of purchases, data from the market regulator show.
The Sensex trades at 13.7 times estimated earnings, more than the 10.8 multiple for the MSCI Emerging Markets Index, which has risen 3.9 percent in 2012.
Parliament Stalled
The standoff has stalled legislation. Singh was relying upon the parliamentary session to revive his reforms agenda and boost economic growth as policy gridlock over attempts to open up the economy, graft scandals and elevated inflation deter investment.
India last year halted a plan to allow Wal-Mart Stores Inc. and other foreign companies to open supermarkets, while an anti-corruption bill and proposals to permit foreign investment in aviation are also stalled. The $1.8 trillion economy, Asia's third largest, expanded 6.5 percent in the year ended March 31, the slowest pace since 2003. Growth may be a "little better" than last year, Singh said Aug. 15.
Stocks fell today even as a draft report released on Sept. 1 by a government panel suggested delaying the implementation of the General Anti-Avoidance Rule by three years. Foreigners turned net sellers of Indian stocks in April and May on concern the plan, announced by former finance minister Pranab Mukherjee in March, would indiscriminately apply to their holdings.
India VIX
Jindal Steel slumped 2.2 percent to 344.50 rupees, its lowest close since May 26, 2009. Tata Power lost 2 percent to 97.55 rupees and Tata Motors Ltd., owner of British luxury car brands Jaguar and Land Rover, declined 1.5 percent to 230.9 rupees, the lowest level in three weeks.
Two-wheeler makers rallied. Hero MotoCorp Ltd., which tumbled 8.9 percent last week, jumped 2 percent to 1,798.95 rupees. Bajaj Auto Ltd. climbed 2.8 percent to 1,662.50 rupees after losing 5.5 percent last week.
India VIX, which measures the cost of protection against losses in the S&P CNX Nifty Index, slid 0.1 percent to 17.28. The Nifty fell 0.1 percent to 5,253.75 while its September futures traded at 5,273.10. The BSE-200 Index lost 0.3 percent to 2,118.46. The top two bourses traded 787 million shares on Aug. 31, compared with a 12-month daily average of 888 million shares.

'Upscale' lounge and restaurant to replace Cosi in Oak Park
New eatery hopes to open by September
An upscale lounge and restaurant will be replacing the Oak Park location of Cosi restaurant, 1101 Lake, which has been closed since March.
Property owner Anthony Shaker had originally planned to fill the vacant storefront with a local outlet of the Johnny Rockets burger chain. But the deal fell through, and Shaker put the space back on the market.
An Oak Park resident recently signed a 10-year lease for the space, Shaker announced in a press release on Monday. He describes the new restaurant as "American eclectic," with a menu that will change by the seasons and focusing on "fresh, farm-to-table, multicultural" dishes. It will include a selection of microbrews and local wines.
Shaker declined to name the owner in the press release, saying he wants to wait until village permits have been issued. He anticipates that the restaurant will open by September.

Johnny Rockets? Nothing personal, but with Five Guys a few doors down and Potbelly's across the street in Mr. Shaker's other building, let's be a little more imaginative, OP. Hope the unspecified place hits the mark.

I have a business in OP, right on Lake Street and I can't wait for my lease to end so I can close shop. Yes opening was the biggest pain in the neck and I am hoping closing won't be as big a pain.

Oh my! All the complaining I hear! Living in Oak Park is a joy... better than any community I can think of. It is no doubt a challenge to open a business in Oak Park... especially when you decide to use contractors unfamiliar with Oak Park and they try to "slide one past the goalie". However, once you ARE open, you have access to an intelligent, active and affluent community. What else could a business owner want? I love living here I look forward to patronizing this new business.

Only someone new in town would ask such a question, NIT. The Doopers now have to have meetings to schedule the meetings that will set the agendas for the focus groups that will meet to form committees to study the viability of a restaurant with a seasonal menu. This will be followed by protest groups demanding special civil rights legislation to be enacted to protect free range chicken eggs from being improperly scrambled. Such are the way of things in Shrub Town...

@ New in Town, Oak Park is the least business friendly town for miles- the ten year lease will be good because the first year will be taken up getting permits- Ask the Trader Joe's about the He** they went through trying to open.

REVIEW SNAPSHOT®by PowerReviews

Comments about MXL V69 Mogami Edition Tube Microphone:
Having put the MXL V69 Mogami Edition tube condenser through its paces, I can say with certainty that I'm very pleased with it. It's not exactly what I was hoping for, but then I was hoping for a Neumann microphone; for $270 or so, you cannot get a Neumann microphone, so it was a rather unrealistic hope.
That said, it compares very well, considering the price, in clarity and frequency coverage to large-diaphragm condensers that, like a Neumann U47 or U87, are several orders of magnitude more expensive. I'd be more inclined to mic a tenor singer or a woman up with the V69, but as a baritone singing in the high ranges of progressive/power metal, I'm more than pleased with how it picks up my voice; the lows are clear, but not overwhelming; the low-mid range is a bit scooped (and as such, this mic is admittedly not ideal for a baritone), but the high-mids are great and the top is crystal clear. Large vocal overdubs blend together beautifully. This mic, when properly positioned, also captures more nuances in the acoustic guitar than I've been able to do without it, and the tube that drives it adds a wonderful sense of warmth and organic musicality to all that I've recorded with it so far. I highly reccomend it to anyone looking for a vocal mic for people with higher voices, or for a good acoustic guitar mic. I haven't tried it yet, but I imagine it would make a great room mic, too, given its boosted upper frequency range. As far as a vocal mic for a baritone (such as myself), I'll keep fishing when I have the money to spare, but I'm more than content with MXL's V69, for now.

Perdue provides funding for Transylvania County logjam clean up
Published: Friday, December 9, 2011 at 11:11 a.m.
Last Modified: Friday, December 9, 2011 at 11:11 a.m.
The N.C. Department of Environment and Natural Resources will provide $25,000 in financial assistance to aid in the removal of the logjam on the French Broad River near the Transylvania Community Airport, according to a news release from Gov. Beverly Perdue.
The massive debris jam that spreads 150 feet across the river and 12 feet high poses a threat to boaters and water quality, said Jeff Parker, district director for Transylvania County Soil and Water Conservation District.
The water conservation district and Transylvania County will match the funds, he added.
"We are so glad to hear (about the funding) so now we can move forward," Parker said.
Several steps still need to be taken, including matching the $25,000, before they can start the debris removal.
Parker is optimistic the cleanup will begin in February after they contact landowners and go through the bidding process for a contractor.
"We will make it happen," he said.
The natural dam is believed to have began forming in 2008 when timber fell into the river, catching debris as it flowed down river. Conservationists estimate about 2,000 tons of soil have eroded since then. The situation was brought to Parker's attention last spring.
The grant money comes from water resource development project funds managed by the Division of Water Resources.

Would you consider adding an option to align the text when thumbs are used?
As it is now the text aligns to the bottom of the image which looks bad. I'd like it to center align vertically. It really will stand out as I want to move to 30x30 size.
The other issue is the layout with the text appearing without any space next to the image. It'd be great if I could impact that. I know I can do my own CSS but I'm not good at it and it'll get overwritten with updates.

Advances in Search Engine Technology and the Impact on BHL Inc's. Business Plan

This report was written to give a review of search engine technology, both present and future, as well as a brief history of how the search engines of today were developed. We have done a thorough review of available resources to determine the current status of search engine technology and, based on our research, will speculate where we believe the technology is heading. This knowledge will enable us to give informed suggestions on how to proceed with our company's future online marketing campaigns and search engine optimization (SEO) and marketing strategies.
Purpose of Report
In this report we will present our research which is focused on determining the present state of search engine technology and the direction it is theorized to move in the foreseeable future. This will allow us to predict the importance and direction of our future Search Engine Optimization (SEO) strategies in BHL's marketing and business plans.
With the rapid growth of the Internet, the amount of information available on the Worl Wide Web (WWW) has grown exponentially. The problem of finding information on a specific topic is one that has had computer science researchers working hard to find the optimal search engine technology to easily find "almost anything on the web (once all the data is entered.)" (Brin and Page, 2) The Internet has revolutionized the way companies approach sales and marketing and can be the key factor in any company's success. Thus, a company's marketing strategy needs to take into account how search engines rank pages based on their relevancy to the user's search terms, this is also known as SEO. SEO has become a critical element to Internet marketing. Companies desiring to actively compete on the Internet need to include SEO in their marketing and business plans.
Background and a Brief History of Search Engines
OOH Goody, I'll be back in a bit...
I need to edit, or as I call "chop and hack" but I am first getting it down...
The world wide web is the most popular internet service. It is comprised of universally accepted standards for storing, retrieving, formatting, and displaying information using a client/server structure. Web pages are formatted using hypertext with embedded links that link documents to each other including sounds, video, and animation files.
Web servers are software designed for locating and managing web pages.
A web site is a collection of web pages that are linked to a homepage.
It is unknown how many web pages exist. There are over 800 billion topical and proprietary pages.
Because of the enormity of this number, accessing the desired information could prove to be untimely without the existence of filtering systems. Search engines were developed in the early 1990s to address this challenge. Originally, search engines were simple software programs that roamed the internet to gathered information regarding the general content of web pages. In 1995, AltaVista released an engine, sometime called "crawlers." These programs were word indexes that counted the number of times a word appeared in the content of a web page. These programs were not optimal in that, simply because a word was repeated, users did not necessarily find the content they were looking for.
In 1994, Yahoo ("Yet Another Hierarchical Officious Oracle) was created by two Stanford University computer science students, David Filo and Jerry Yang. These students designed Yahoo, not as a new search engine, as an edited selection of web sites, sorted into categories, that they found relevant.
In 1998, Larry Page and Sergy Brin, also Stanford computer science students, developed Google. This new search engine was unique in that it ranked search results based on the relevance of each page. Larry Page patented the this new process and coined it the "PageRank System." Basically, the system "measures the popularity of a web page by calculating what other sites link to it." Brin contributed to the process by including the capability to index word combinations.
Competition between search engine leaders including Yahoo, Google, and MSN has propelled the development and refinement of search engines.
This technology was further transformed by the addition of advertisements (search engine marketing) which created revenue for search engine providers. The inclusion on advertisements can be view as "sponsored links" that, typically, at the top of search engine lists. These advertisement opportunities have bolstered, via investments to refine search engine capabilities, the accuracy and intuitiveness of these systems.
More to come
Current State of SE Technology
Future Direction of SE Technology and Recommendations
When we first began this project, I thought to use a close friend from college as a resource. Scott Gaffney is a PhD. graduate in computer science from UCI in CA, and worked closely with JPL in developing image recognition algorithms for imaging satellites using artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) algorithms. Scott presently works as a lead analyst at Yahoo in their Department. In an e-mail dated September 9, 2009 Scott made these comments on the relevance of the PageRank algorithm in today's search engines;
"In relation to search algorithms, actually page rank in itself is not necessarily critical anymore. Search is highly optimized using Machine Learning over thousands of features of queries and pages. In this sense, page rank is just one of the thousands of features that are used to predict the relevant top pages for any given query. There are many features which are much more important than page rank to predict relevance.
However, features that predict quality/popularity are useful to predict overall relevance between a query and a page. Page rank is one such feature. Essentially, pages which are higher quality and more popular tend to be linked to more than other pages. As such, ranking pages by the number and strength of the links between pages is a useful thing to do when predicting page relevance. But, there are many ways to do this."
I used Scott's comments as a framework to further examine the future of search engine research and Internet Marketing's expected direction of over the next five years. What I found was very informative

RATINGS: 1316 WEIGHTED AVG: 3.67/5 SEASONAL: Special EST. CALORIES: 270 ABV: 9%
In Williamsburg, Brooklyn, we forge barley malt and hops from Germany, aromatic raw sugar from Mauritius and yeast from Belgium into our latest beer, Brooklyn Local 1. Behind the full golden color you'll find an alluring aroma, a dynamic complex of flavors. Belgian flair, Brooklyn fortitude and a dusting of our special yeast. To create this beer, we use the old technique of 100% bottle re-fermentation, a practice now rare even in Europe. It gives this beer a palate of unusual depth. Enjoy it locally or globally, as an aperitif or with your favorite dishes. It is particularly nice with spicy seafood and with fine cheeses.

Guardian: U.S. Monitored Calls Of 35 Foreign Leaders
The United States spy agency monitored the phone conversations of 35 world leaders, The Guardian reports today, based on a classified memo given to the paper by former NSA contractor Edward Snowden.
The paper reports that the NSA encouraged others in the U.S. government to share their contact numbers for world leaders, that way the agency knew whom to target. The Guardian adds:
"'In one recent case,' the memo notes, 'a US official provided NSA with 200 phone numbers to 35 world leaders ... Despite the fact that the majority is probably available via open source, the PCs [intelligence production centers] have noted 43 previously unknown phone numbers. These numbers plus several others have been tasked.'
"The document continues by saying the new phone numbers had helped the agency discover still more new contact details to add to their monitoring: 'These numbers have provided lead information to other numbers that have subsequently been tasked.'
"But the memo acknowledges that eavesdropping on the numbers had produced 'little reportable intelligence.'"
The revelation is likely to fuel more anger toward the U.S. from allies and foes. As we reported Wednesday, German Chancellor Angela Merkel called President Obama to complain about information she said showed the U.S. had wiretapped her cell phone.
Obama brushed off the allegations, telling Merkel the U.S. "is not monitoring and will not monitor the communications of Chancellor Merkel."
Of course, these kind of allegations have been flying since Snowden started leaking classified documents. For example, some of the documents reportedly show that the U.S. spied on Mexico's Enrique Peña Nieto and Brazil's Dilma Rouseff.
Rouseff, in fact, was so angry at the revelations she postponed a state visit.

The new button in the admin bar to delete the cache does not work. When I returned in the parameters of character and regenerates the list, cache files are still there.
The new button in the admin bar to delete the cache does not work. When I returned in the parameters of character and regenerates the list, cache files are still there.
Sorry, it works for me. Check the supercache directory. Does the cached file have the same time and date on it?
Yes everything works side cache by cons if I manually replace the file cache super link the admin bar:
wp-cache.php L2923 : 'href' => wp_nonce_url( admin_url( 'options-general.php?page=wpsupercache&action=delete&path=' . urlencode( $_SERVER[ 'REQUEST_URI' ] ) ), 'delete-cache' )
By it clears the cache well :
wp_nonce_url(admin_url().'options-general.php?page=wpsupercache&wp_delete_cache=1&tab=contents', 'wp-cache' )
With the code in the version 220.127.116.11 I have the page which is charged on itself, and if I asked to list the cache files, the list does not return a 0. Similarly with the files in the cache folder.
I'm sorry, I find it hard to understand you. I presume English isn't your first language? Did you check the the supercache directory through your ftp programme?
Yes I am French.
The FTP folder displays many caches.
I replaced the link in the adminbar by it and it works.
wp_nonce_url(admin_url().'options-general.php?page=wpsupercache&wp_delete_cache=1&tab=contents', 'wp-cache' )
The connection charging current page only, but does not clear the cache.
Oh! I am not the only guy facing such problem. I am also unable to purge the cache after hitting the delete button.
Deleting each cache file one by one is possible but unable to delete all files at once.
I have this problem after the recent update.
The delete cache button only deletes the cached file for the current page. Does that clear things up?
Nope! That is the problem. The button is not clearing all existing cache files. And still show in cached file list.
ok so I did not understand.
I developed a small plugin that just add personnel to remove the cache button in admin bar.
I thought your button clears the entire cache, as the old button wordpress <3.0
Sorry, None were working for me.
I just disabled and re-enabled the plugin, now workig. The problem for me was., After upgrading the plugin, none (The new delete cache button on admin bar and the "Delete Cache" button in dashboard) are working for me except deleting files one by one in the dashboard.

School has been convenient but there aren't classes on the weekend so I can't say that everything is alright with being able to work with school, home, and work life.
Academic Flexibility:
Very flexible classes to fit either the night owl or early bird. allowing student to work and study to further there horizons.
Academic Flexibility:
There are three different class times in a day to choose from. Morning, evening and night classes are all available, as well as online. Many credits transfer over and the teachers and administrators will make a good effort to work wit you.
Academic Flexibility:
The teachers make a reasonable accommodation, like if you have a family emergancy some teachers will let you either make it up in an earlier class or later class. Though sometimes they can't really do anything about it. The administration they are very professional and they will and can do anything in their power to help you to your goal.
Academic Flexibility:
The main reason I chose this school is because the main focus of Le Cordon Bleu is it's Culinary Arts program. I have wanted to become a chef for a while now and im finally on my way to acheiving that dream.

I thought to create a plugin to automatise the creation of new taxonomies like the 'Add Category' panel in the admin area.
But it is better if something is integrated in the next releases or versions.
I thought on a Admin Panel - with a menu point 'Create Taxonomie' - on which a user can create a taxonomie and hierachical items.
then those taxonomies are accessible on each post page.
I can develop by myself a plugin for that, but I thought if in future wp offer it, the work is for nothing.

Wehrmacht Combat Helmets 1933 45 (Paperback)
Usually Ships in 1-5 Days
The German Stahlhelm is perhaps the most recognizable image of World War II (1939-1945). Manufactured in its millions, it was used or copied by many countries. It is still one of the most collected relics of the war; but despite its relative availability, prices have reached levels that challenge collectors to protect themselves by acquiring in-depth knowledge. This book, by a collector of 30 years' standing, offers a detailed masterclass in the patterns, component parts and finishes of the combat helmets used by the German Army, Navy and Air Force. It is illustrated with a superb selection of rare period photos, colour photos of collected examples, and striking colour paintings.

Great, modern room. Good views. Very helpful.
I asked if they had a laundry service. They did. I needed a couple socks, shirts, and pants washed for the next couple days of traveling. It cost $100!! I should have asked about the cost, but I think they should have been upfront with me sooner.
Great hotel. Will watch my wallet with them next time.

The decor fits the Grenada style.
The staff spoke poor English and were not very pleasant.
This hotel is nice and worth its rates. The staff could be more friendly, although were were recommended a very good restaurant. They should however have told us how the Alhambra reservation works when we specifically asked them about it, which ended meaning we could not see the Nasrid palaces that day. The breakfast is not good, but the hotel was nice, comfortable, and the lobby is quite beautiful. Overall, we were happy with our stay. ...

Power Response of Loudspeakers with Non-Coincident Drivers: The Influence of Crossover Design
This paper analyzes the acoustic power response of a loudspeaker having separated drivers, using mainly a simple monopole model. We show how different crossover types cause excess or suppressed power response at the crossover frequency. By proper choice of phase relationships between drivers, one can achieve least coloration of the reverberant response, at the expense of good axial behavior. A symmetrical configuration of two low-frequency drivers and one high-frequency driver is analyzed which can provide good axial behavior but its power response is not improved.

probably since they wanted to highlight how cold and uncomfortable the floor was
I kinda chuckle a little when i see this.. Good thinking.
Absolutely great! Agree with Slim, a fresh take for each execution would've made it even better. Still outstanding!
i think its amazing! good work..
~ old habits die hard, older ones never do ~
I didn't really get this right away either. I'm a copywriter, so keep that in mind art directors, but perhaps a nice touch would have been to have the dog's tail hanging over the edge of the bed? As is, I'm not sure it's clear why they're sleeping on the floor.

A Rakaia teenager run over and killed on Saturday night may
have been lying down on the road at the time, police say.
Danny Mathew Hendriks, 18, was struck by a car on Acton Road,
just 700m east of Rakaia township, at around 10.55pm on
Initial inquiries indicate that Mr Hendriks was wearing dark
clothing and lying on the unlit rural road, local senior
constable Mike Jackson said today.
Police are still working to establish Mr Hendriks' movements
in the hours leading up to the crash.
"We understand that he had been with a group attending a
function in Christchurch earlier in the day, and returned to
the Rakaia area during the evening," said Mr Jackson.
"It's believed Mr Hendriks was heading to an address on the
outskirts of the town, but at this stage we do not know the
details of his movements on Saturday night."
Police are appealing for information from anyone who may have
seen a man walking in the area of Bridge Street/SH1 in
Rakaia, and Elizabeth Ave or Michael Street to the east of

EDMOND, Okla. (AP) -- Authorities in suburban Oklahoma City are
looking into phone threats made against a pastor after he came out
against a local ordinance that bans discrimination against gays.
Investigators believe all the calls were made by the same person. But an Edmond police spokeswoman declined to give further details.
The city's policy had already provided equal opportunity protection without regard to race, creed, ethnic origin, color, religion, disability, sex or age.
Fairview Baptist Church pastor Paul Blair said the church office
received 10 threatening phone calls starting a day after he spoke
against the proposal that was passed by the City Council on 7-2
vote. Blair said the calls became increasingly violent and threatening
Blair said there is no evidence of discrimination based on sexual orientation and that it the ordinance creates a special class of protection that he said is based on a person's behavior.
