A brand new paper just published has revealed a literal breakthrough in the treatment of sciatica. Dr Serafin Leeman and colleagues studies 148 patients with clinical sciatica over a 1 year period. The results of this landmark study were astounding. 81.8 to 90.5% of the patients suffering from sciatica reported clinically relevant improvements. The procedures used to get these incredible results are the exact procedures used in the Bedford Sciatica clinic. A large number of the patients reported clinically significant improvements within just 2 weeks after commencing the procedure. Not a single adverse event was reported following the procedure, this can not be said for medication, injections or surgery.
It is critical that sciatica is properly diagnosed or you are going to have a very difficult time to get rid of the problem. In most cases when you go to see a health care provider from a GP to a chiropractor or an osteopath they will diagnose your condition based on the symptoms that you present with. Then based on these symptoms they will "try" one therapeutic approach or another in order to get rid of the symptoms.
The problem with these typical diagnostic and therapeutic approaches is that they are not actually dealing with the true underlying cause of the sciatica. They are just trying to ease the symptoms without dealing with the real problem. This is what I like to call junk medicine. The usual orthopaedic tests that you are likely to receive have low specificity, accuracy and validity – in other words not a great deal of help when you need an accurate diagnosis of your condition.
If you are referred for some diagnostic tests these will often involve MRI scans but again we run into a serious diagnostic problem. The vast majority of MRI's that people are referred to are conducted lying down and this means that there is no significant mechanical force in the spinal discs; so even if a herniated, prolapsed or bulging disc is detected on an MRI there is no accurate way to predict what happens to it when you are sitting or standing. Therefore, the lying down MRI you just had is virtually diagnostically useless!
There are 3 diagnostic tests that you should insist on when you have sciatica and need an accurate diagnosis of the cause:
1. Computer Analysed Global Postural Analysis (CAGPA) – This test is essential if the mechanical cause of the spinal disc problem is to be understood.
2. Static Electromyographic and Thermographic scans – These tests accurately pinpoint abnormal nerve function and lead to a much more specific solution for your sciatica. This is very important since there are several different nerve branches that can be causing your sciatica and without these tests finding the real problem is extremely hit and miss
3. Computer Analysed Digital X-Ray (CADXR) - These should be taken whilst standing or sitting so that the mechanical loads in the spinal discs can be accurately assessed. There is no more accurate way available today to analyse abnormal spinal loading and it's effect of the spinal discs. With this test it is possible for a specialist to accurately re-construct the damaged area of your spine and allow you to make a full recovery.
If you are suffering with this painful and often debilitating spinal disease then you owe it to yourself to seek expert diagnosis and specialist care that will actually cure the sciatica instead of merely trying to relieve the symptoms temporarily.

With spring training in Surprise, AZ, fully underway for the Texas Rangers, competition for final roster spots and playing time will be fierce.
Much of the roster is intact from the AL championship squad from last season. With the exception of starting rotation addition Yu Darvish and closer Joe Nathan, the Rangers bring back the entire starting lineup from the World Series.
Not only are the Rangers competing for the ultimate prize, they also have a bright future, boasting one of the better minor league systems in all of MLB.
Keeping 2012 in the minds of the fans while also looking forward to guys who could be superstars in the near future, here are five guys to be excited about once the season begins.

Edmund Cartwright patented the first power loom in 1785. This loom capitalised on the flying shuttle invented in 1733 by John Kay, and improvements in yarn production achieved by Hargreaves ( the "spinning Jenny", 1764) and Crompton (the "spinning mule", 1779) and Arkwright's "water frame" of 1769, which had radically increased the volume and quality of yarns available to weavers. Whilst Cartwright's first loom was a breakthrough, it was also imperfect, and many more refinements were to be required before the full effect of its achievements could realised. However, through 1800-1810 improvements by other inventors, coupled with improvements in steam engines, brought the power loom to such efficiency that it was …

Wide Receiver Anquan Boldin Throws Momentous Tantrum on Arizona Cardinals' Momentous Day
When the Arizona Cardinals defeated the Eagles and clinched a spot in the Super Bowl on Sunday, everybody on the long-suffering team celebrated. Even Matt Leinart, who's stood on the sidelines for most of the season and post-season, ran up to Kurt Warner with a huge smile and gave the man who stole his position as starting quarterback a huge handshake and hug.
Everybody celebrated, that is, except Cardinals wide receiver Anquan Boldin.
Maybe Boldin should take a lesson in sportsmanship from Leinart. During the game, Boldin got into an argument with Cardinals offensive coordinator Todd Haley. As reported on several Web sites sites, including ESPN's and AZcentral.com, Boldin reportedly stormed off the field after the game, skipping the post-game celebration, and then bolted out of the locker room.
Haley called the argument a "heat of the moment" altercation, and told AZcentral.com, "We changed personnel groups out there, and I put Steve Breaston in for [Boldin], and he was upset about it."

About the incident, Cardinals head coach Ken Whisenhunt told Rotoworld.com, "To my understanding, it's over with. That stuff happens on the field all the time."
But while Haley and Whisenhunt seem to have written off Boldin's behavior, sports pundits like CBS blogger Mike Freeman are calling Boldin a "jackass." Freeman writes, "
In the game, Boldin got into a heated argument with offensive coordinator Todd Haley. After the game, instead of celebrating with his team, Boldin abruptly left the field, then abruptly left the locker room.
Quarterback Kurt Warner also got into an argument with Haley during the game, but he celebrated with his teammates and enjoyed the moment.
"I have to say in nearly 20 years of doing this, I've never seen a player more concerned about his arguing with a coach over making a Super Bowl," Freeman wrote (Read Freeman's entire missive here).
When media members caught Boldin trying to sneak out of University of Phoenix stadium after the game, he handed out quotes like this from SFGate: "I fought. I gave my heart to this organization. It's paying off."
Asked if he would stay in Arizona after this season, Boldin's response was "Next question."
Q, just get over it before the Super Bowl, will ya? Haley probably held you out because you've been injured lately. You're probably not up to peak playing condition.
And, face it, your fellow receivers, Breaston and particularly Larry Fitzgerald have, been playing great.
We just hope it's not jealousy over Fitz's new-found fame that's driving your anger. The Cardinals will need both of you against the Pittsburgh Steelers on February 1

Beaumont/Port Arthur
Another disappointing weekend at the movies only added modest gains to a summer season that has been one of the most dismal in many years. "The November Man," a James Bond wannabe with Pierce Brosnan, was a yawner, as was the supernatural thriller "As Above, So Below" set in the catacombs of Paris.

Monday, Sept. 1, was the Central Zone dove season opener, and as usual the success rate was all about being the right field at the right time. One of the best fields for the opener here in Southeast Texas was just west of Beaumont. That's where a small group of hunters had an excellent shoot over a 50-acre field that had been cut last week. The doves moved in a few days before the season opener, and even though the field was soggy from recent rains, the birds wanted in.
Coming off one of the worst summer movie seasons in recent history, there is a lot riding on what's in the pipeline for this fall. With a few exceptions like "Guardians of the Galaxy" and "Transformers: Age of Extinction," nothing seemed to please audiences enough to send any movie over the elusive $300 million mark — a first in over 10 years.
Words are powerful things, no matter what the quote books say. "Sticks and stones may break my bones, but words will never hurt me," is simply not true. I know this from first-hand experience.

I often see people walking along a street, in a parking lot, or other location, who are busily using their smart phones, often oblivious to their surroundings. In law enforcement and the military, it is emphasized that individuals need to have "situational awareness" and be fully cognizant about what is going on around them, especially potential threats, at all times. Pedestrians who have their noses deeply buried in their phones are typically unaware of what is going on around them, making them easy targets for those miscreants who may wish to do them harm.

While Google is well understood to generate revenue through various forms of advertising, all of the components of Google Classroom (including Gmail) will not contain any advertising, but will still remain free for student and teacher use.

Trent Reznor's How To Destroy Angels announce tour, stream full album
Trent Reznor's group How to destroy angels__, in preparation for the March 5 release of its debut full-length album 'Welcom oblivion' has been rolling out some promotional activity behind the release, namely a tour and an official stream of the new album.
And "rolling out," that means in pieces. Today the band announced tour dates, and tour cities, but not venues, which they'll be revealing tomorrow, adding mysteriously: "These are the only dates we have scheduled right now. To preemptively answer the 'when are you coming to my city/country??' questions: We just don't know. Right now, the dates above are the only dates. There are some other announcements coming soon that will impact this as well…"
Maybe "other announcements" means there's more festival appearances, since this week seems to be the week of all festival announcements. Or maybe Nine Inch Nails is putting out a covers set of How To Destroy Angels songs. Who knows.
Meanwhile, you can sample "Welcome oblivion" in its entirety via Pitchfork. It includes the cuts from the " Check out the creepy, dark music video for "How Long" by Shynola, the London art collective which, on the flip side, was behind the totally amazing Coldplay vid for "Strawberry Swing."
Here are the How to destroy angels__ tour dates, to be updated when venues arrive:
4.12 indio, ca [coachella]
4.13 las vegas, nv
4.17 monterey, ca
4.18 san francisco, ca

My sil is constantly giving Chubs food and drink I tell her not to. She gave Lo a Danish butter cookie Chubs choked on it and threw up, she gave Chubs pineapple juice she had a diaper rash. Maybe the diaper rash was coincidence but it was her first diaper rash ever and the only thing that was different was that she had pineapple juice. Chubs had diarrhea I was only letting her have her formula, water and pedialyte. I told my sil not to give Chubs Gatorade but she gave it to her any way and then got mad when I told her that she wasn't supposed to do that. She put a glass of margarita to chubs's mouth and got upset when I got mad about it. We've sat her,down and told her that I'm Chubs's mom. She sulked and didn't come around for a few days and then she came back as if nothing had happened and started giving Chubs things I didn't want her to have.
Sil doesn't respect my authority

If she can't respect your authority as your child's mother then she doesn't get time with your child! Simple as that. No one disrespects me and still gets to see my child.

La Salle never gave Duquesne any chance in 97-64 win at Gola Arena. The Explorers (20-7, 10-4 Atlantic 10) shot 62 percent in the first half and never really let up. Guards Ramon Galloway (23 points), Tyrone Garland (20) and Tyreek Duren (16) combined for 59 points. Sam Mills played his usually terrific defense and Jerrell Wright (16 points) did what he wanted near the basket. The Dukes (8-20, 1-13) are not very good. La Salle is very good.
It is the first consecutive 20-win seasons since Lionel Simmons was a junior and senior. La Salle is in a very good spot to get one of the four byes in the conference tournament. Can't wait to see the game at first-place Saint Louis on Saturday.

Last month the government of Tamil Nadu, an urbanised state in southern India, held a contest for college students to expand the Tamil Wikipedia. Along with a graphic design contest for high school students, it aimed to introduce young people to modern Indic computing ahead of the World Classical Tamil Conference organised by the Tamil Nadu government, and the co-located annual IT expo, the Tamil Internet Conference, to be held in June. The Tamil Wikipedia has 22,000 articles and some extremely committed editors, but its existence is not well-publicised in the Tamil community. The current annual growth of just 3,000 articles a year shows the significant opportunities for expanding the rates of participation (see Signpost coverage). The Telugu Wikipedia has twice as many articles, despite roughly the same number of native speakers of both languages. The Tamil Nadu government is hoping for 30,000 to 40,000 new articles to be uploaded when the contest closes on 30 April.
Update: the closing date has been extended two weeks.
Orientation programs were run at Loyola College in Chennai to teach participants how to write standard wiki articles. The best entries, selected by a jury of Wikipedia editors, will receive prizes and certificates from the government.
The contest went unnoticed on the main Wikipedia forums. An announcement was made on the Wikimedia India mailing list and a blog was used to post media coverage, but no updates were posted on the Foundation mailing list. Within India it received attention due to the involvement of Kanimozhi in this year's Tamil Internet Conference. M. K. Kanimozhi MP – a former journalist who has championed Tamil literature since entering politics – joined P. A. Aruna, the state IT Minister, on the organising committee. One Indic computing expert said the Tamil Wikipedia is "gaining good traction and patronage".[1] The Hindu reported this is the first time a state government has promoted local content in Wikipedia.

Ganesh, I find the news report on Tamil Wiki contest highly biased, having incorrect information and unnecessarily negative in tone. It would have been nice if the SignPost reporters had contacted any of the Tamil Wikipedia contributors for fact checking before publishing this. It will be good to allow us to improve the news report now. Below is a better and updated version of the article:
The Government of Tamil Nadu, an urbanised state in southern India, is running a contest until May 15th for college students and the general public to expand the Tamil Wikipedia. Currently, The Tamil Wikipedia has 22,000+ articles. Along with a graphic design contest for high school students, it aimed to introduce young people to modern Indic computing ahead of the Tamil Internet Conference, to be held in June.
Orientation programs were run at Loyola College in Chennai to teach participants how to write standard Wiki articles. The best entries, selected by an international jury of academicians and professionals, will receive prizes and certificates from the government.
This is the first time a state government has promoted local content in Wikipedia.
Thanks--Ravishankar (talk) 03:11, 6 May 2010 (UTC)
- I believe that there was no bias in the editors who wrote this and I'm sure Ravi would agree on that. They went by the news items and the inaccuracies and the tone have reflected here. Let me fix the factual issues first and leave it to the original reporters to fix the rest taking the above submission by Ravi. -- Sundar \talk \contribs 05:45, 6 May 2010 (UTC)
- I appreciate the feedback Ravishankar, but please bear in mind that I don't speak the language and had to go by the reports in The Hindu, which skipped over a lot of detail. It took me over an hour to research the main points of the article and to make sure there was a clear connection to the Tamil Internet Conference per this press release. The article may simplify things because I could not find anyone to translate the Tamil news reports for me, but the tone is neutral. The only oversight is neglecting to mention who will be coordinating the contest -- I didn't think our readers would really be interested. Ottre 14:25, 8 May 2010 (UTC)

The fear is back. As Iran is said to get ever closer to producing a nuclear weapon, a new generation is learning to live not only with the old threat of annihilation, but the new threat of a conventional war waged to prevent a scary Islamic regime from getting hold of the bomb.
This well-timed cycle of nine short atom-bomb plays, written by as many playwrights and staged in two parts, begins with two nervous Jews. Rudolf Peierls and Otto Frisch are the German- and Austrian-born physicists who we see in Whitehall in 1940, waiting to warn the British that the Nazis are a lot closer to the atom bomb than previously thought. We next see them at the end of the evening, only this time resurrected as nuclear inspectors whose job is to find evidence of weapons-building at an Iranian nuclear plant. And between the two halves of Zinnie Harris's play we learn a lot about the philosophical and political challenges posed by the existence of the bomb.
Colin Teevan's intriguing if over-wrought offering is set in the aftermath of an Iranian scientist's assassination in Tehran. He is the victim of an Israeli plot hatched by an Iranian-born Israeli agent who uses his sister - a physicist living in Zurich - to unwittingly infect Iran's nuclear programme with a computer virus. It is one of the few short plays here that feels complete.
Contributions by playwrights Ron Hutchinson and David Greig meanwhile depict British prime ministers struggling with the possibility of having to kill more people in a retaliatory strike than were murdered by the world's biggest war criminals.
There is no doubt that the Tricycle's latest multi-play production is a deeply thought-provoking project. Its weakness is that, despite the satirical interludes, it provokes the same thought several times over. By the time Amit Gupta's poignant offering tackles the subject from an Indian perspective, we have already heard the arguments expressed by leaders and scientists of other nations.
Still, in his final production as the Tricycle's artistic director, Nicolas Kent expertly prevents the marathon from becoming a stamina-sapping event. Although after 28 years in the job, it would have been nice to see Kent, who has made such a huge contribution to British and, it has to be said, Jewish theatre, go out with a bigger bang than his bomb production delivers.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Josh Freeman is used to rallying his team in the fourth quarter, and has done so successfully once this season.
No one expected the defense to come on strong and stave off a ferocious comeback from the Atlanta Falcons, but the Bucs persevered, winning 16-13 at Raymond James Stadium.
It looked like the Bucs of the late '90s: solid defense, pound the rock and play to win.
While many may call it an "ugly" win, the Buccaneers now improve to 2-1 on the season and are riding high after defeating a division rival.
What were the good, the bad and the ugly during Sunday's victory?

ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. - Juqua Parker has been in the NFL for 11 years, more than any other Eagle.
So it stands to reason that the defensive end would realize that the Bills, after trying one hard count on fourth and 1 with the game on the line, were not going to actually run a play.
Except Parker said he thought they were, and he jumped offside, giving Buffalo a first down with 1 minute, 23 seconds left Sunday and effectively sealing the Eagles' fourth straight loss.

Brand and product development aside, we propose three simple but essential elements through all NOUS Tea™ products:
1. Food safety and Quality, all premium products are organically grown and never genetically modified.
2. Sourcing, We selectively seek out the best ingredients from less developed, and always neglected regions to capture value for customers, while supporting economic development of communities at the bottom of the pyramid.
3. A generous Give-back mechanism, is built into each package that benefits targeted indigenous communities through partnering with carefully selected, legitimate non-profit organizations. This initiative guarantees a much more significant impact to the beneficiaries than through "Fair-trade" and similar platforms.

Skip to comments.GE moving X-ray business to China
Posted on 07/26/2011 1:16:15 PM PDT by kcvl
General Electric Co.s health care unit, the worlds biggest maker of medical imaging machines, is moving the headquarters of its 115-year-old X-ray business to Beijing.
Tweet 14 people Tweeted this.ShareThis .A handful of top managers will move to the Chinese capital and there wont be any job cuts, said Anne LeGrand, general manager of X-ray for GE Healthcare. The headquarters will move from Wisconsin amid a broader plan to invest about $2 billion across China, including opening six customer innovation and development centers.
The division should have double-digit growth rates as the country converts from film and analog to digital X-ray technology, LeGrand said.
GE Healthcare, also the worlds biggest maker of magnetic resonance imaging and cardiac tomography scanners, got about $1.1 billion of its $16.9 billion in sales from China last year.

Per Drudge...
Obummers Corporate buddy pays no taxes and then move a division to China. Swell.
How much of those GE earnings that are sitting on the sidelines in this economy were earned overseas? Just another operating division who's profits will never be repatriated due to the US Corporate tax system. Wonder why the jobs are gone? Here's one reason.
I think this country has had it's bellyful of GE. Time to go Alinsky on their azz.
Is anyone really surprised?
... oh
Anyone but GE is my new slogan.
We now need to ask where the XRay machine is made before we get into one. I wouldn't use one of those things on a bet. So....we continue to refuse to buy Chinese products as well as GE products.
Could we at least get China to use their military to defend corporate interests overseas?
Why do you think companies are moving to China? Do you think our taxes, labor and environmental regulations, labor unions, and unfriendly business attitude might be playing a role? Or why are countries like China and Ireland attracting US corporations to set up their headquarters in those countries? Until we make this country a more attractive place to do business, we are going to see more and more jobs going elsewhere. It isn't just about cheap labor.
The president's jobs czar is doing a heck of a job — for China
Posted by Jon Talton
President Obama continued to exhibit a pleading weakness in his prime-time speech Monday night, so it's no wonder Monday was the same day that his "jobs czar," General Electric CEO Jeffrey Immelt, chose to announce the company will be moving the headquarters of its health-care division to China. You want compromise, Mr. President? In your face, sir, with all due respect.
Immelt replaced Paul Volcker as a top economic adviser. The former Federal Reserve chief, who defeated runaway inflation in the early 1980s, was done in by his resistance to letting the big banks and Wall Street resume the business as usual that led to the financial meltdown. Mr. Obama wanted to project a more business-friendly face for his administration. The results of Immelt's public service have been to barely dent the plight of 24 million Americans who are unemployed or underemployed. I suppose we should be grateful that GE's domestic employment dropped only 1 percent last year even as net income hit $11.6 billion, topping Wall Street expectations.
Tell me about it. When you factor in the productivity advantages of the American worker the labor-cost disparity is usually slight-to-non-existent. It usually comes down to a taxes & cost of capital.
When some of my customers move automated assembly lines over to China the word came back that the "locals" couldn't maintain the equipment or get consistently good parts off them. So the Chinese did what they do best... they started hand-assembly. You can't tell me that the part quality didn't suffer.
GE sez: Give me your American money, and then moves offshore. Boy we got a great deal didn't we? Stupid government!
Immelt has been known to do those types of treasonous things.
From a Ted Baxter piece he did a number of years.
Way to go Zero...
Pr. Obama - 'STOP GOP Offshoring of US Jobs'
My mom is using bandages that cost $5 each made in Sweden. CVS charges $1.00@ for a regular J & J surgical dressing pad. Aquafore costs $7.50 for 3 oz and it is packaged in heavy plastic that prevents people from getting all of the ointment out of the tube. Some of the bandages cost $10 each. A toilet seat on a handicapped portable toilet cost $80
If it wasn't for Amazon, they couldn't afford to take care of her.
One of her antibiotics cost $650 for 10 days taking 2 tsp 2X/day.
Surely we have enough know how to start up honest companies. It can't cost that much to make this stuff.

GE = Obama's best friend. I wonder if I could get some of those great GE grants and subsidies!
It doesn't make sensę to even bother trying in the USA... The government has now stacked the cards against us.
Name a city where a company has built a new manufacturing facility? Pretty hard to do. Factories are buildings that get torn down in urban America these days. New ones are not built and are not ever going to be built again.
Exorbitant property taxes, unions, regulation, environmental tyranny and urban ghettoization make US cities hostile environments for business investing.
Look at, say, Hartford, CT.
The "mill rate" is over 60 mills.
That means, for me to build a $10 million factory I would be liable for some approximately $500,000.00 in properry taxes alone per year. You have to stay up pretty late at night to figure out a way to hand over a half million bucks to some local tax collector...
Nobody in their right mind will invest in manufacturing in the average US urban ghetto.
"Or why are countries like China and Ireland attracting US corporations to set up their headquarters in those countries?"
Don't know about the Irish, but the Chinese will steal the technology and kick GE to the curb once they do. GE is a fool.
I agree. Just don't lecture me about J O B S when your jobs czar is moving jobs overseas because of your damn policies.
GEs Immelt: Stop Complaining About Government
July 12, 2011
Immelt to jobs summit: Businesses need to do more Jul. 11, 2011.
The people who are part of the business sector, the people in this room, have got to stop complaining about government and get some action underway, he told the group. Theres no excuse today for lack of leadership. The truth is we all need to be part of the solution.
Immelt is the chair of President Obamas Council on Jobs and Competitiveness. He said the group has made a number of recommendations for changes in government policies that should be able to help job creation, such as the executive order announced Monday asking independent agencies to rid their books of old and outdated regulations.
Sure, lots of them! The problem is not just starting up, but growing. Regulatory shackles and confiscatory taxation make it hard to keep a business running on any size bigger than a handful of employees.
Surely we have enough know how to start up honest companies. It can't cost that much to make this stuff.
It's all really cheap - it's why you can get overseas produced versions for cheap. In the US, however, you'll need to probably get FDA certification (making medical products), and the liability insurance you'll have to carry - in case someone ingests your bandage, or puts the Aquafore on their cereal and gets sick - will be stratospheric.
Businesses typically do not move overseas because of labor or basic materials costs; by the time you factor in duties (yes, most things imported to the US have duties applied), shipping, and typically higher reject rates at the factory, the cost will be equal or greater.
However, that company will get to keep significantly more mof what it makes (the US has the highest corporate tax rate in the world, and a full 10% above the OECD average), much lower regulatory burden (no need to provide segregated bathrooms for transgender folks, ADA-compliant magazine holders, etc), and common-sense legal protections (when that client swallows the bandage the court will probably laugh them out of the room, rather than take the complaint seriously).
The overall cost of doing business outside the COGS is much lower. And that is 100% in control of the US Federal Government, and is something out Federal Government continues to ignore. So businesses keep moving.
Better to earn a few bucks overseas, than nothing at home, eh?
Sanctimonious hypocrite!
The lapdog media will give him a pass... After all, it's "Team Obama" in action and the One must not be criticized.
If it's a product for sale on the open market, you can bet that it's already been acquired, torn apart, and reverse engineered not just by the Chinese, but in India, Russia, South Korea, Japan, and most of GE's competitors.
Protecting IP of sold hardware/physical products is essentially impossible - you make the actual IP available for purchase by your competitors. And unless you have the IP protected in their country, don't expect protection there.
I hold a few patents in the US, and some that were filed and granted in the US, Germany, and China. The only ones I've been able to successfully defend in Germany and China were those that were filed there. Unsurprisingly, most nations - including the US - ignore IP protection for other countries.
The US doesn't care that you, a Taiwanese company, have a Taiwan patent on your product; we only care if you have a US patent as well. Well, most of the rest of the world does the same - they only care if you have a patent in their country, not in yours.
I'm in business to make money. Period.
This is not good.
I've been a lurker here at FR long enough to know that if you take that attitude, and also include a willingness to make money overseas, you'll be branded a traitor.
IMHO, paying your own way - even if earning it overseas - is vastly superior to taking Government handouts. And if we had sane regulations and taxation (I'd like to see the corporate income tax rate set to zero, personally - imagine the flood of repatriated capital and new businesses to US shores!) we'd see a lot more economic activity here.
Increasingly, the dwindling number of US businesses are surviving in spite of, not because of, the Government.
Precisely! GE doesn't like paying 39.6% of its gross income back to the Federal Government. I can't say I don't blame them...
Neither do the rest of us but someone has to pay taxes to keep Uncle Sugar happy. /s
It's just ironic that Immelt is lecturing everyone else while GE pays NO damn taxes.
A low corporate tax rate alone would not be enough.
Local property taxes are exorbitant, regulation, unions and now environmental hurdles continually raise the height of barriers to business in the USA.
Then you have social regulation regarding protected ethnicities, genders and sexual preferences and a hostile legal environment with lawsuit-happy lawyers populating every icy sidewalk...
There is a lot wrong from a business perspective.
I have been to China. The corporations have moved top of the line production equipment to China and the workforce is just as capable and educated as Americans. It is very difficult to compete with that.
As a smart guy whose name I've forgotten said on CNBC last year:
China has central planning by scientists, engineers, and mathematicians, and the US has central planning by lawyers.
By definition we lose.
Note that is only a handful of managers that will be sited in China. But they will always be on the road, going around the world to drum up business, except for the five months and twenty five days a year that they are with their US based family, ensuring that they are not residents of the US.
So, GE can take this fast growing, profitable business headquarters out of the US, thus future worldwide profits are then subject to intercompany transfer prices, regardless of where the products are actually produced, and the transfer pricing mechanism will be skewed to recording profit in the lowest tax rated country.
It's no wonder that GE pays no US income taxes, they dodge the tax by US and international tax laws. (Back when I was with ITT, they did the same, and didn't need to pay US taxes.
What I knew as GE Medical Systems when I lived in WI back in the 80s was a huge manufacturing facility. Its in Waukesha which I believe is a conservative area. Offshoring righty jobs is on the regime's agenda. WI Freepers: Whats up with this move?
ANY medical related sale includes a HUGE premium to insure against the John Edwards of the US.

Future Fellowships
Research Office contact:
The Future Fellowships scheme supports research in areas of critical national importance by giving outstanding researchers incentives to conduct their research in Australia. The aim of Future Fellowships is to attract and retain the best and brightest mid-career researchers.
At present many highly qualified mid-career researchers choose to work overseas to further their careers due to lack of opportunities in Australia. The Future Fellowships scheme addresses this problem and will significantly boost Australia's research and innovation capacity in areas of national importance.
Future Fellowships provides four-year fellowships to outstanding Australian mid-career researchers. In addition, the ARC may award the Administering Organisation up to $50 000 of non-salary funding per annum which may be used for personnel, equipment, travel and field research costs directly related to the Future Fellow's research.
Future Fellowships will encourage proposals from researchers working in areas of national priority. Preference will be given to those researchers who can demonstrate a capacity to build collaboration across industry and/or research institutions and/or with other disciplines.
Although international experience is important for Australian researchers, it is also important they have the opportunity to return home to continue their work.
One call for submission of Future Fellowships proposals is made each year.
For further information, please visit the Future Fellowships page on the ARC website.
Key Dates
Please subscribe to the ARC mailing list to receive up to date information on ARC funding opportunities.

Marianne Vallet-Sandre left France at 14, but a half-century later, it is plain that France never left her.
You can hear it in her voice, where even after decades of living and teaching in Buffalo, Vallet-Sandre retains a slight French accent. It is also in her love of Mediterranean-inflected foods like eggplant, tomatoes and artichokes, rooted in her childhood in Nice.
Though Vallet-Sandre is retired after 30 years teaching design at Buffalo State College, she still offers lessons -- in the French way of cooking. As a member of the Alliance Francaise of Buffalo, the local chapter of a Francophone society, Vallet-Sandre (pronounced valley-sandra) turns her home into a culinary classroom for fellow members.
With co-teacher Alessandra Cassini, Vallet-Sandre conducts seminars in her spacious kitchen, with its rack of copper cooking vessels and cookstove framed in 250-year-old handpainted French tile. Recently they taught a session focused on "the cooking of the Maghreb," exploring the spices and tastes of Tunisia and Morocco.
"I guess you could characterize some of my recipes as Mediterranean -- herbs, garlic, olive oil -- but not always," Vallet-Sandre said. "Good ingredients, healthy things."
In recent years, Western New Yorkers have had access to most of the raw materials she would have used in France, she said. "You can get ingredients now, pretty much," she said. There's one favorite cheese, Cantal, that's unavailable because the United States bars cheeses made from raw milk.
That's an exception, though, said Vallet-Sandre. "I don't miss the bread as much any more," she said.
With her son, Yvon, grown, Vallet-Sandre cooks for herself and husband Paul Pasquarello, a New York Power Authority archivist and former Courier-Express photographer. "I genuinely enjoy making something nice to delight some friends, and we've always had tons and tons of people visit," she said.
A year-round favorite everyone enjoys is chicken braised with port wine and finished with a dash of cream. "That's actually a Portuguese recipe that can be done ahead of time," she said. Or duck breast with pears, candied in sauce, beside wild rice.
Her eyes light up as she describes her leg of lamb. She carefully trims a bone-in leg, then "enrobes" it with Dijon mustard. Then in her Cuisinart, she makes "wonderfully moist" fresh bread crumbs with minced garlic and parsley. Pressed into the meat, they form a coat that is doused with melted butter before roasting.
"It comes out crusty on the outside, moist on the inside," she says, savoring the memory. "Delicious."
To share with News readers, Vallet-Sandre chose beef roulade, a section of tenderloin flattened into a wrapping for herbed goat cheese, blanched red peppers and spinach. It's a relatively complicated dish for company, one that appeals to her sense of deliciousness combined with visual appeal.
Vallet-Sandre urged cooks considering the dish to make it a day ahead of time, and refrigerate it. It's at its best after being allowed to return to room temperature before being sliced and served, she said.
Plus, making it ahead gives cooks leeway if things go awry. With News staffers watching, Vallet-Sandre discovered that her cylinder of filling was too large for the beef sheet, leaving some red pepper layer exposed. But she persisted, using plastic wrap to tightly pack the roll.
As it turned out, the roulade didn't need to be perfect to look good, and taste magnifique.
> Roulade de Filet de Boeuf (Stuffed Beef Tenderloin)
1 1/4 to 1 1/2 pounds fresh spinach, stems removed
1 11-ounce log fresh goat cheese, crumbled
2 teaspoons fresh rosemary, chopped
2 teaspoons fresh thyme, chopped
Salt and freshly ground pepper
1 whole beef fillet, trimmed (around 3-4 pounds)
3 large red bell peppers, roasted or scalded, peeled
Extra virgin olive oil
Reserve 8 large spinach leaves, and blanch the rest in a small amount of boiling water. Refresh under cold water; drain. Squeeze out extra moisture, pat dry and coarsely chop.
Combine spinach, cheese, rosemary, thyme, 1/2 teaspoon of salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper in a bowl and mix well. Shape cheese mixture into a 12-inch log on a sheet of waxed paper or plastic wrap. Chill, well wrapped, until firm. Can be prepared 1 day in advance, stored in refrigerator.
Butterfly the fillet by cutting lengthwise down the center, leaving 3/4 inch of meat to connect halves. Open the fillet book-style and place between layers of plastic wrap. With meat mallet or rolling pin, pound the meat to about 3/4 inch thick.
Remove top plastic. Season meat with salt and pepper. Layer reserved spinach leaves over the cut side of the beef, leaving a one-inch border all around. Layer with peppers, peeled side up.
Place cheese log on one side of beef. Roll the beef into a tight roll, using plastic wrap underneath to help keep it tight. Secure with kitchen twine about every inch or so, then carefully slit plastic wrap and pull it from underneath twine.
Preheat oven to 375. Heat olive oil in a large skillet and brown beef on all sides. (Or brown on grill.)
Place beef in a roasting pan, paint with more olive oil, sprinkle a little more salt and pepper on the surface and roast for 35 minutes, or until a meat thermometer inserted into beef registers 130-135 degrees for medium rare.
Let stand at least 15 minutes before slicing, to eat warm. Or allow to cool to room temperature before slicing for a cold buffet.
Entire roulade may be prepared and cooked 1 day ahead and refrigerated overnight, but it must be allowed to return to room temperature before serving, a minimum of one hour.

E-tolls not just about Gauteng - Vavi
Cosatu General Secretary Zwelinzima Vavi says government will target other provinces too.
JOHANNESBURG – The Congress of South African Trade Unions (Cosatu) is taking its e-toll protests to the streets of Gauteng on Friday morning.
Cosatu General Secretary Zwelinzima Vavi says government will target other metropolitan areas in South Africa if civil society stands by and allows e-tolls to go ahead in Gauteng.
"If we can't stop them here in Gauteng, then we will not be able to stop them in Durban and in Cape Town too."
Vavi called on support from citizens across the country, saying other provinces cannot stand by and watch events unfold.
"This is not about Gauteng - this is about South Africa."
The general secretary and other Cosatu affiliates are expected to address protesters at Friday's march.
JOHANNESBURG – The Congress of South African Trade Unions (Cosatu) is taking its e-toll protests to the streets of Gauteng on Friday morning.The trade union federation said it has planned mass marches in Johannesburg and Pretoria, to voice its opposition to the controversial project.
