Multifactor productivity in nonfarm business, 2005
March 26, 2007
In the private nonfarm business sector, multifactor productivity—output per combined units of labor and capital inputs—rose 1.8 percent in 2005. This was lower than the 2.6-percent increase in 2004.
Output increased 3.9 percent in 2005, and the combined inputs of capital and labor increased 2.0 percent.
Labor input grew 1.8 percent in 2005. Capital services grew 2.4 percent. Within capital services, equipment was the fastest growing component. The increase in equipment in 2005 was largely due to capital services of information processing equipment and software rising by 6.7 percent.
Multifactor productivity is designed to measure the joint influences of economic growth on technological change, efficiency improvements, returns to scale, reallocation of resources, and other factors, allowing for the effects of capital and labor.
These data are from the Multifactor Productivity program. Productivity data are subject to revision. To learn more, see "Multifactor Productivity Trends, 2005" (PDF) (TXT), news release USDL 07-0422.

I don't care what they say about the death of ostentation, the end of luxury goods and the world's new emphasis on subdued elegance. I love my insanely expensive purse - a Christian Dior "trailer trash" bag - and everything it said about me, money and the value of being fashionably idiotic.
In hindsight, being shallow and irresponsible led to one of my most satisfying shopping experiences. It's safe to admit that now. Back in October, right when the world's sense of security was lost, the idea of spending lavishly on luxury goods was not only distasteful but very nearly disrespectful of the suffering on the East Coast and in Afghanistan. Just when I and many of my fashion colleagues were ready to shovel the dirt over fashion's long era of luxury, this silly and fabulous purse has taught me a lesson about enjoying life.
As a self-supporting journalist, not an heiress who works for the sport of it, I'm very careful with my cash. Years of traveling to Europe haven't relaxed my grip, even when the foreign exchange rates often cut the cost of designer goods by nearly 50 percent. Half of $2,000 is still a lot more than I'm comfortable spending on a cotton shirt or trendy ripped jeans. Even my financial adviser has to remind me that savings exist to help improve the quality of life.
Yet I had absolutely no intention of making a major purchase when I wandered into the Dior boutique across from my Rue Bonaparte hotel in Paris. Let's just say this: There's nothing like spending 24 consecutive days at the footlights of 50 designer runway shows to drive your desire for a piece of catwalk fantasy. In the past, I had never succumbed to temptation. I was immune to the mystique of the practical Prada backpack and the allure of the glittering Fendi baguette, impervious to the charms of the graffiti-splattered Louis Vuitton tote. Though each of those handbags hit the top of fashion's must-have chart at one time or another, for all their exclusivity, they spoke of conformity.
They were recognizable status symbols that announced the wearer's dedication to a set of values that I'd often found distasteful. Conspicuous consumption has kept me in a fashion job for years, so I'm not especially against it - for other people. But what is the sense of spending $500 or $1,500 on a bit of leather that will be declared passe in six months?
Sunglasses, on the other hand, are easier for a professional tightwad to rationalize because they're an everyday accessory. So before I even thought about a handbag that fateful fall day, I'd consoled myself with a pair of mirrored, blade-style Diors that, when I don't comb my hair, make me look like a dissolute rock star. The $200 glasses scratched my shopping itch only for as long as it took to sign the credit card receipt.
At that moment, I spied two teen-agers in jeans, with scuffed tennis shoes and - sacrebleu! - Dior handbags slung under their taut little arms. These children possessed designer originals, and I, a mature, hard-working, deserving woman, was a designer bag virgin. That's when I weakened. Hanging in a window was a sickly green version of the sculpted bag that I had seen on Dior's runway a year earlier in John

The I-40 corridor has been the scene of numerous drug busts over recent months. Police seized more than $300,000 worth of methamphetamines Thursday evening after a routine traffic stop by state troopers near Groom.
State troopers arrested a 20-year-old man from Los Angeles, Calif., in connection with the seizure, Department of Public Safety spokesman Wayne Beighle said. Troopers stopped the vehicle shortly after 6 p.m. Thursday and found 3,777 grams-more than eight pounds - of meth in a spare tire of a 2000 Ford Explorer, Beighle said. Troopers think the drugs originated in Los Angeles and were being transported to Atlanta.

Pakistan off-spinner Saeed Ajmal, the top-ranked one-day international bowler, is set to make a return for Worcestershire next season pending approval from the Pakistan Cricket Board and suitable visa clearances.
The 36-year-old represented Worcestershire in 2011, taking 16 Friends Life t20 wickets in eight games, including a triple-wicket maiden against Northamptonshire en route to career-best Twenty20 figures of 4-14.
In just three LV= County Championship matches that summer Ajmal, currently fourth in the Test bowling rankings, collected 17 wickets.
Worcestershire director of cricket Steve Rhodes said: "Saeed fitted in to the dressing room fantastically well in 2011 and his experience at the highest level can only be a massive boost to our young squad.
"To sign a world-class player of Saeed's quality shows the stature the club has in the world of cricket and demonstrates the county's determination to challenge for honours in 2014."
Ajmal added: "I'm looking forward to returning to New Road for what I hope will be an extended stay. My family and I thoroughly enjoyed our short time in Worcester during 2011 and I hope to be able to contribute to a successful 2014 campaign."

Anthropology is a holistic discipline, which means that anthropologists study all aspects of humans and our behavior.
The field of Anthropology has been broken up into four main subfields: Cultural Anthropology, Physical Anthropology, Archaeology, and Linguistics. Cultural Anthropology is concerned with the study of human culture and its variations across time and space. Physical Anthropologists aim to study our species from a biological perspective – examining our DNA, relationship to our closest animal relatives, the primates, and the fossil evidence of our earliest human ancestors. Archaeology is the study of our past, focused specifically on reconstructing past behavior by looking at objects used by past people. Linguistic Anthropologists study human language and communication.
The Sacramento City College Anthropology Department offers classes in all four fields:
- Cultural Anthropology
- Physical Anthropology
- Linguistic Anthropology
- Archaeology
Program of Study for the Anthropology Degrees
Anthropologists with baccalaureate or graduate degrees work as archaeological technicians or project directors for private, state or federal organizations, museum managers, forensic specialists in police departments and crime labs, primatologists and zoo curators, teachers, consultants or analysts for private, government or educational institutions or non-profit organizations.
Anthropology is the study of humans. Anthropologists study our species throughout time, focusing on our diverse modern culture and cultural adaptations, our biological classification as a species, and our… MORE >>

A judge on American Idol who is known for being brutally honest towards contestants. However, little do people know that Mr. Cowell is simply playing a role; he is often considered to be the 'bitchy one' out of the trio which people either love him or hate him for.
Simon is often worshipped by naive tweens for being 'harsh' or 'badass', when in reality he is only a token critic.

Simon Cowell himself even admitted that part of his antics were for sheer publicity reasons, not because he actually cared about giving a proper critique.

In Reply.—We appreciate Dr Bowen's letter calling out attention to the recent reports of prenatal US identification of MCDKs, as well as his thoughts regarding the natural history of these lesions. Although the number of prenatally identified lesions is small, it is interesting to note the high rate of decrease in size documented by the two reports.While decrease in size is understandable, it is hard to explain the complete resorption or dissolution of a dysplastic organ. While many of these kidneys may indeed decrease in size, it is not clear that a decrease in size is equivalent to a decrease in risk to the patient, specifically in regard to the development of hypertension or malignant change.
It is clear that we have inadequate knowledge of the natural history of MCDK to make an unequivocal recommendation for either routine resection or nonoperative observation. Our dilemma revolves around a lack of such information and a documentation of potentially serious complications, such as hypertension and malignant lesions, in retained MCDKs. Since it is unclear whether the risk of these complications is greater in MCDK patients than in the general population, the only definitive statement that can be rendered is that if such lesions are left in place, careful monitoring on a regular basis for the development of such complications is incumbent on the primary physician.

While Brock Lesnar has technically "quit" the WWE and has decided to file a lawsuit against the company, I think it's pretty safe to say that we all know that the "Butt Kicker" is going to be back in the ring this year, especially since his infamous mouthpiece Paul Heyman made his return.
Is Brock what the WWE needs, though? Over the past few years, we've seen the WWE bring in older guys or guys out of the company for short-term contracts instead of pushing the young talent that they have. Is bringing Brock in the right idea?
To steal a phrase from Daniel Bryan, YES!

SALAZAR RETURNS FOR SECOND WALT DISNEY WORLD SPEEDWAY TEST ORLANDO, FLA., December 16, 1996 -- Eliseo Salazar, the second Indy Racing League driver to test the new cars last month, returned to Walt Disney World Speedway with Team ...
ORLANDO, FLA., December 16, 1996 -- Eliseo Salazar, the second Indy Racing League driver to test the new cars last month, returned to Walt Disney World Speedway with Team Scandia Monday for a second round of testing. Salazar, driving Team Scandia's No. 22 Dallara/Oldsmobile Aurora, was on hand for two days of Goodyear tire testing prior to a League open test scheduled to start Wednesday. Salazar ran 48 shakedown laps as the team sorted out a new engine, pushing the IRL new car testing lap total past the 1,000 mark to 1,021. Speeds were not announced. Fermin Velez, another of Team Scandia's drivers who became the first driver from Spain ever to make an Indianapolis 500 field last May, is also on hand and is expected to take the wheel later in the week. Tony Stewart was the only driver to run laps over the weekend, turning 23 circuits at the one-mile oval in a Team Menard G Force/Aurora on Sunday with a top speed of 165.975.
Christine Stevens, the Belgian ambassador to Bolivia, and her family came to Walt Disney World Speedway Monday for a tour of the facility and met Salazar, Velez and Team Scandia engineer and Indianapolis 500 veteran Dick Simon. Her son, Axel, had met some racing people at their hotel, and they invited the family to the track. Golf pro Hilton Jones also visited the test.
QUOTES: DICK SIMON: "We had some engine malfunction problems with some components so we decided not to run further until we found out what caused the readings." ELISEO SALAZAR: "We had a problem with the (fuel) map and it wasn't pulling right out of the corners. This is our first (Paul) Gentilozzi engine (built by RocketSports) and we were expecting small glitches, but we have the whole week."
FERMIN VELEZ (about the car): "It looks nice and sounds nice. From what I've heard, it's a little different. It's more like I'm used to with a flat bottom, less downforce. That should be good for me because I'm used to low downforce cars. It should be easier for me to adjust to than the Lola."
For ticket information to the Jan. 19 Chevy Trucks Challenge and the Jan. 25 Indy 200 at Walt Disney World Presented by Aurora, call 1-800-822-INDY. Tickets are also on sale at Race Rock, 8986 International Drive, Orlando (I-4 to Sand Lake Road exit).

NBA in brief: Sterling says he won't sell team, calls wife pig
- Donald Sterling denounced his wife, her lawyers and the NBA from the witness stand Wednesday, saying he would never sell the Los Angeles Clippers and vowing a lifetime of lawsuits against the league.
"Make no mistake today," Sterling shouted toward the end of his second day of testimony in the trial in Los Angeles to determine his wife's right to make a $2 billion deal to sell the Clippers, "I will never, ever sell this team and until I die I will be suing the NBA for this terrible violation under antitrust."
He was followed to the stand by wife Shelly, who tried to approach him in the front row of the courtroom after she was done for the day.
"Get away from me, you pig!" Sterling shouted.
The judge then admonished him to make no further comments.
Sterling began his testimony by saying he loved his wife, but then denounced her.
Donald Sterling's lawyers are challenging the authority of Shelly Sterling under the family trust to unilaterally cut a deal for the team with former Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer.
- The Dallas Mavericks have made a move at small forward, agreeing with restricted free agent Chandler Parsons on a three-year offer sheet worth more than $45 million.
Houston will now have to decide whether to match the offer. Two people with knowledge of the situation said Wednesday night that Parsons agreed to the offer sheet with the Mavericks, while a third person confirmed the terms.
The people commented to the Associated Press on condition of anonymity because the offer sheet can't be officially signed until Thursday, when the NBA's moratorium on signing free agents ends.

The purpose of proposing that buses drive less safely is to speed up the schedule, which doesn't get the bus driver paid more and normally the bus driver doesn't get to define his schedule anyways.
Is anyone compiling a list of new cars you can get without this crap in them?
Both of them.
I think good-quality Velcro should last as least as long as a shoelace before it breaks--but replacing the Velcro is much more difficult.

Go is rather simple compared to other problems like image recognition
Not really. When looked at naively, the problem space seems much larger in image recognition, but there are algorithms to drastically simplify things in IR, while such things are very scarce on the ground for Go.
My serious question is: what is to prevent individual researchers from just publishing what they have as a PDF or WordPress article on a random site on the Internet?
The main problem is not that there are rules against it, but simply that if you don't publish in an accepted, refereed journal--it doesn't count. Nobody will read you, nobody will cite you, and most of all you won't get any credit for being published, without which a research scientist has no career, and probably no job.
Uhm... I don't believe we currently recognize Russian government as legitimate. We recognize it as ruling.
The two are not separable. If you recognize a government as ruling, you recognize it as legitimate. We most certainly do recognize the Russian government as legitimate--there are embassies and everything. (The current Russian ambassador to the US is Sergey Ivanovich Kislyak, and the current US ambassador to Russia is John Francis Tefft). We don't recognize their annexation of certain territories, most notably the Crimean peninsula, but that's a different matter. With the re-establishment of relations with Cuba, there aren't many governments in de facto power we don't recognize. Taiwan's the most important; we had to withdraw our recognition in order to establish relations with the People's Republic of China.
What Obama...what most politicians...don't seem to understand is that there is no balance. The phone is either secure...or it isn't. And if it isn't, the police will not be the only ones cracking it.
"And, you know, by a weird coincidence, we're an OpenStack partner. What are the odds, hey?"
More accurately: "Software without an inherently vulnerable feature doesn't have vulnerability related to said feature."
"It's so bad."
This is from the same yahoos who though LA's methane leak was a disaster on a par with thousands of people dead, so I'd take it with a pretty big chunk of salt.

'Belle of Amherst' best when profiling Dickinson's poetry
Walt Whitman may have rightly claimed that his poetry contains multitudes, but Emily Dickinson can stake an equally valid claim to being America's greatest poet.
She is also the hardest one to know. Harold Bloom once wrote that no poet "seems so separate from us as Dickinson," adding that "we have no accurate approaches to her." »Read Full Article

Hiring of NRHM doctors resumes after a month

After a month, the state Health Department has restarted the process of appointment of doctors under NRHM in the districts, which was suspended following the alleged abduction of the CMO of Gonda by former minister of state for revenue and rehabilitation Vinod Kumar Singh alias Pandit Singh last month to force him to change the list of selected AYUSH doctors.
Since Vinod Kumar Singh alleged that the selections had been unfair, Health Minister Ahmed Hasan had ordered a probe and recruitment across the state was stopped.
"There were no written orders to stop the process of selection of doctors in the districts. However, after the Gonda incident, the CMOs were asked verbally to suspend the process for the time being. Last week, the CMOs were asked to continue the process once again," said a senior officer in the Health Department. The CMOs were instructed to begin the process in the meeting held at the state programme management unit, NRHM, last week.
Sources said most of the districts submitted the report of the probe ordered by the health minister and things were found to be in order. Those districts where reports are still pending, including Gonda, Bahraich, Siddharthanagar and Sultanpur, have been asked not to restart the process of appointment of doctors yet.
The doctors are being appointed by the CMOs for the Child Health Guarantee Scheme under NRHM, which is due to be launched in December. "It had to be launched on November 14, but has been delayed as the process of recruitment was incomplete," said a health official.
Under the scheme, where all children below the age of 14 will be screened for various diseases, two doctors and two paramedical employees have to be posted in each of the 820 blocks of the state. Because of the non-availability of MBBS doctors, both AYUSH and BDS doctors are to be hired for the scheme on contract basis for a year under NRHM.

Even as the total number of financial advisors is in decline since 2000, the number of CFP certificants has been on the rise, driven by both the rising demand from consumers for financial planning advice, and a need and desire for financial advisors to differentiate themselves by providing financial planning services.
And according to a recent study by Aite Group, it turns out that getting the CFP marks really are good for business, with the average solo CFP certificant generating 40% more revenue, the average experienced solo CFP certificant generating 80% more revenue, and financial advisor teams generating 44% more revenue when they include at least 1 CFP professional. In turn, this results in the average CFP professional generating 14% to 33% more income than non-CFP advisors, even after controlling for years of experience.
Notably, though, the study also finds that while CFP certification is associated with higher income, it's not necessarily because advisors get new clients simply by showing off their CFP marks. Instead, the positive impact derives primarily from enhanced credibility, improved technical expertise and knowledge (which also leads to better self-confidence as an advisor), and greater client satisfaction with the advisor's (more comprehensive financial planning) services.
And given that some of the fastest-growing channels for CFP certification are now employee advisor roles at either independent RIAs or "online" brokerage/investment firms with retail advisors (i.e., Schwab, Fidelity, and TD Ameritrade, and now Vanguard), it appears that obtaining the CFP marks are increasingly becoming a key step to climbing the employee ladder as a financial advisor as well.
To say the least, though, with the potential for a 14% to 33% increase in lifetime earnings, at this point the CFP marks continue to more-than-sufficiently-justify the $3,000 – $10,000 required investment into a CFP educational program to obtain the certification!

National Lab scientists are building special sensors to see and hear inside turbine engines, boilers, gasifiers and fuel cells.
Filling up your fuel cell electric vehicle is just as easy as filling up a gasoline powered car. The Energy Department's Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy (EERE) offers five tips to follow when filling up at a hydrogen fuel station for the first time.
The Department of Energy and the Department of Interior's National Park Service have officially opened a new technology demonstration hydrogen refueling station in Washington, D.C. This hydrogen station should help grow and advance the benefits of hydrogen power as a fuel, and highlight the benefits of fuel cell electric vehicles firsthand throughout the region.
The inaugural 2016 Sustainable Transportation Summit will serve as a forum to share ideas and perspectives on opportunities to accelerate the commercialization and deployment of advanced transportation technologies and smart mobility systems over the next decade.
What's the difference between a hydrogen refueling dispenser and a traditional gasoline dispenser that you see at your local gas station? Not that much, actually. A hydrogen refueling dispenser is used to power a fuel cell electric vehicle (FCEV). But instead of using a combustible gas-powered engine, a FCEV carries a fuel cell onboard that uses hydrogen to power an electric motor which makes the car run.
Glenn Rambach is a world-renowned expert in the hydrogen and fuel cell industry. He talks about the history of fuel cells, what he's seen in his 45-year career, and what he thinks the future has in store for fuel cell electric vehicles.
Nearly 400 Energy Department activities and projects will be judged by reviewers from a variety of scientific backgrounds at the Vehicle Technologies Office and Hydrogen and Fuel Cells Program Annual Merit Review and Peer Evaluation Meeting in Washington, D.C., which is free of charge and open to the public.
Last week, the city of San Francisco was named the first Climate Action Champion to be focused on hydrogen and fuel cells in the United States by the Energy Department's (DOE) Fuel Cell Technologies Office.
In April 2015, the First Lady participated in an event celebrating how far we have come, and announcing new private-sector commitments to train or hire 90,000 veterans and military spouses. At the event, two Fuel Cell Technologies Office (FCTO)-supported companies were acknowledged for their commitment to these efforts.

Smoking and mental health
Smoking prevalence is significantly higher in people with mental health conditions than among the general population. This results in lives cut short by diseases such as heart disease, cancer and stroke. See ASH's report: The Stolen Years – the Mental Health and Smoking Action report for further details of how this problem can be tackled.
The Stolen Years – The Mental Health and Smoking Action report
This report by ASH, endorsed by 27 health and mental health organisations, sets out recommendations for how smoking rates for people with a mental health condition could be dramatically reduced. These include improved training of healthcare staff, better access to stop smoking medication and a move towards smokefree mental health settings.

Surface Mining:
State and Federal Use of Alternative Enforcement Techniques
RCED-87-160: Published: Aug 20, 1987. Publicly Released: Sep 9, 1987.
Additional Materials:
- Full Report:
(202) 512-7756
Office of Public Affairs
(202) 512-4800
Pursuant to a congressional request, GAO reviewed state and federal use of alternative enforcement techniques under the Surface Mining Control and Reclamation Act, focusing on: (1) whether states with primacy for mining regulation have statutory authority to use, and are using, the alternative techniques; (2) whether the Office of Surface Mining Reclamation and Enforcement (OSMRE) uses such techniques in states where it has primacy; and (3) the extent to which OSMRE monitors state use of alternative techniques.
GAO found that: (1) all of the primacy states it reviewed had statutory authority to use alternative techniques, including injunctions, civil penalties, criminal charges, or mining permit actions, but none of the states developed systems to ensure that they were appropriately using all of the alternative techniques; (2) of the available techniques, states most often chose to revoke or suspend mining permits; (3) 13 states established specific deadlines for initiating alternative enforcement action in the absence of abatement; (4) OSMRE most often attempts to obtain injunctive relief against uncooperative mine operators; and (5) initial OSMRE reviews generally focused on states' authority to use alternative techniques but, in 1987, OSMRE directed its field offices to assess how states were implementing alternative techniques.
Recommendation for Executive Action
Status: Closed - Implemented
Comments: As OSMRE establishes additional rules related to individual civil penalties, states will be required to amend their programs to meet federal standards. OSMRE made alternative enforcement a national priority review issue in its fiscal year 1988 oversight reviews of the state programs.
Recommendation: In order to improve the act's enforcement, the Secretary of the Interior should require the Director, OSMRE, to require states to develop systems necessary to ensure that alternative enforcement techniques are appropriately used. Such systems should allow for the use of regulatory judgment, but should include written policies and procedures to guide regulators' actions on such matters as when, and under what conditions, alternative techniques would be used.

#circleshare #circlesharing #sharedcircles #sharedpubliccircles #sharedcircleoftheday
This circle is a group of individuals where the majority have personally shared my best circles. These folks demonstrate that they not only love to share circles, but also love to engage in meaningful ways on Google Plus.
Core Multipliers Guidelines
- Share this circle publicly to stay in the circle
- If you want in the circle, share this circle.
- No blue heads for profiles
- Have a great time in the circle!!!
Enjoy this circle and have an awesome Friday!
*if you were somehow missed/ not included in this circle, please let me know and it will be corrected on the next share. My apologies ahead of time! :)

Creating Circle Shares
I shared this earlier this week, but I think it is worth being part of this main circle share post. If you aspire to share circles of interest, connection or engagement you may want to consider these things:
1. Make sure you have really considered who the circle includes and do some vetting. e.g +Christine DeGraff's #31people project is a great example of someone that has done a superior job creating her circle.... Learn more about it here: https://plus.google.com/117778937939543425499/posts/WLYWBZVbWbW
2. In order to create and keep a vibrant G+ community, encourage quality circles over thin circles. This does not mean your circles have to be small, just done well. Who wouldn't want to be in a quality, well thought through circle?
3. Do NOT name drop anyone that you have not formed a real, genuine relationship with... ask yourself if adding them would be something they would want.
4. Be wise about who you add to your circles... Check them out before you add new ppl so you keep you stream clear of any junk.
- This is a HUGE area of improvement for me and I will be sharing some new guidelines for who is able to get into Core Multiplier Circles, so you can have more assurance that those I promote are who you will feel comfortable promoting. I need to take things up a notch in 2014!
5. Encourage engagement and shun mindless adding of circles for the express purpose of gaining followers. Sure, adding people to a circle is great to gain followers, but engagement is SOOOOO much better!
6. Be responsible in creating circles and consider the broader community when possible. i.e. be a good steward, see +Stephan Hovnanian's post on this: https://plus.google.com/+StephanHovnanian/posts/LX7f54JcztD
I believe Google Plus is a very different platform because of the people in it... and as Circle Creators and participants of circle shares, let's hold ourselves to a higher standard of excellence! Let's not only take circles to the top spots at +CircleCount each week, but let's deliver the best in engagement, content and connections.
Connections - Let's Direct Connect!!! (optional)
