Acerca de
The Encyclopedia of the Modern World delves into the period from 1750 to the present, providing special attention to social, economic, cultural and political topics applicable to the time.
The breadth of knowledge offered within this multivolume set is astounding, with features spanning articles on countries, regions, and ethnic groups; themes involving social history, demography, family life, politics, economics, religion, thought, education, science and technology, and culture; events such as major wars; and extensive coverage of the United States. Detailed articles cover not only the major facts but the interpretations as well and are written for readers who are not specialists in the particular area. Enriched with over 800 halftones and 50 maps, this reference work is essential for any scholar, general reader, collector or curator interested in this rich and varied time in history.
Through its fluent global coverage The Encyclopedia of Modern World provides information about and interpretation of major developments across particular regionsboth salient events and regional perspectives on common themes such as politics, demography, social class, and gender. Readers can explore topics that have global implications, such as migration, childhood, and foods, topics that can be viewed through a combination of global patterns and key comparisons. Entries also shed light on standard geographic and ethnic units, such as Scandinavia, Korea, or the Gypsies, in the modern period. The Encyclopedia presents unprecedented coverage of global processes and institutions themselves including the International Red Cross, and the League of Nations. All readers alike will benefit from the vast outpouring on world history in the modern period all captured within this convenient resource.
Peter Stearns is a Professor of History and Provost at George Mason University.

Re: Proble with HTML emelment accesskey

- Bhavna,
Each browser implements accesskeys in different ways:
In most web browsers, the user does this by pressing ALT (on PC) or
CTRL (on Mac) simultaneously with the appropriate character on the
keyboard. In Opera, the user presses SHIFT-ESC followed by the access
key (without ALT). In Mozilla Firefox 2.0 the access key keyboard
combination has changed to Alt + Shift (still configurable via
about:config), while in Amaya, the preferences allow the user the
option of choosing Ctrl or Alt. In Konqueror on Linux, The Ctrl key is
pressed and released, and then the accesskey is pressed.

Four years after giving Kevin Pietersen an earful in a tour match before the 2010-11 Ashes series, Michael Beer will be all smiles when they again duel on Saturday in a Premier Cricket match to prepare for the Big Bash League.
"I'll probably be trying to have more of a laugh with him than sledge him like I did in the Ashes," joked Beer, who will travel to and from Glen Waverley for the match with Pietersen, his teammate at Melbourne Stars.
While England exile Pietersen has no connection to Monash Tigers, left-arm spinner Beer has deep roots at St Kilda, the club he represented before being plucked to join Western Australia 4½ years ago. Within a month of his first-class debut he was claiming the wicket of Pietersen - fortuitously, he admitted.
"They [England players] were a bit rusty ... to be honest, I only got him out because he was trying to reverse-sweep me, just for a bit of fun more than anything," the 30-year-old said.
By the end of Beer's first season he was making his Test debut on the SCG against England, of whom Pietersen was then an integral member. An encounter at the Champions League in late 2012 ensured there was no lingering animosity from the sledging that occurred before and during the 2010-11 Ashes.
The Twenty20 match between Monash and St Kilda will begin at Central Reserve at 2.30pm on Saturday.

Richard Boston, writer and journalist: born London 29 December 1938; married 1968 Anne Caulkin (marriage dissolved 1976), 2004 Marie-Claude Chapuis; died Reading 22 December 2006.
Richard Boston, the writer and journalist, was a most original and delightful mixture of a man. He combined intellect, integrity and considerable learning with an almost child-like sense of fun and humour. His was, in many ways, a life lived through jokes. He pursued jokes like some men pursue women.
The practical joke had an especial appeal to him, particularly when it had a good target, usually an official, powerful or petty. He was once a regular presenter of the television programme What The Papers Say, a task for which he and his producer had to travel from London to Granada's Manchester studios. On the early Euston train, their enjoyment of the breakfast was spoiled regularly by an officious and bossy chief steward. One day, Boston slipped onto his plate, among the rashers and sausages, a plastic fried egg. He then complained about his inedible egg. The steward, puzzled and poking at the inert egg, was for once on the defensive. When he had suffered enough, Boston picked up the egg off his plate and calmly folded it into his wallet.
Humour permeated his life and achievements - much of his journalism, his campaigns, his books and biographies, even originated in his appreciation of a joke. His home, in the Berkshire village of Aldworth, was mined with jokes: notices saying "Beware of the Cat"; mugs with little frogs concealed in the bottom of them.
He became nationally known, a celebrity for a period, when he wrote a weekly column in The Guardian on beer, a campaign against gassy, pressurised beer that the big brewers, Watneys especially, were trying to force on pubs and public. Boston, together with the Campaign for Real Ale (Camra), beat the brewers and cask-conditioned ale was saved. He was a hero among beer drinkers, often to his embarrassment. When real beer enthusiasts would press him to try a pint of "Old Sweated Waistcoats", he used to dismay them by saying "Mine's a gin and tonic."
His humour, his campaigning, his writing had roots in specific beliefs, notably in the verities of anarchism. A man of considerable moral courage, he had an ingrained distrust of all attempts by one group of people to organise and control the lives of others. It was typical of him that the only time he ever stood for an elected office, to become a Member of the European Parliament, his sole platform was cornering the perks. His slogan: "It's a big trough and I want to get my nose in it."
Richard Boston was born in 1938 into a farming family and educated at Stowe before a year at the Regent Street Polytechnic studying art. This gave him a passion for painting and no little skill at drawing himself. Then came King's College, Cambridge, where he read English. His first job revealed that Boston's life was not to be conventional - he joined the staff of Peace News and quickly had an MI5 file devoted to him.
He then became books editor of New Society and irritated the management by exposing the different pay rates among the staff. He pinned to the office notice board details of his wages, inviting other staff members to do the same. In time he wrote regularly for The Guardian as a feature writer and created some of its most colourful long-length journalism at that time - not least an investigation of a nudist colony in the south of France, for which he poed naked for a photograph with his typewriter conveniently placed.
His greatest journalistic achievement was the founding in 1977 of one of the first environmental magazines in Britain, The Vole. Like its founder, it was an eclectic mix - acute understandings of threats to the environment, fine writing and of course humour used for a serious purpose. Boston himself wrote a very funny column under the alias of C.O. Jones (cojones = testicles, Sp.) The Vole was far ahead of its time, on issues from sustainability to greenhouses gases.
Running a small magazine was a huge strain and especially when he chose to start another one, the literary magazine Quarto, in 1979. Not long after he had handed The Vole into other hands, he had a stroke of personal fortune. He attended a book fair and noted a young French woman running the Hachette stall. He asked for her telephone number and when she gave it, upbraided her: "Do you give your phone number to anyone?" Marie-Claude Chapuis proved to be the perfect match for the eccentric sometimes tetchy Englishman and two years ago they married after 21 years of rich partnership.
He wrote good biographies. His first, The Admirable Urquhart (1975), was of the translator of Rabelais, Sir Thomas Urquhart, to whom he may have been attracted when he became aware that Urquhart died of uncontrollable laughter on hearing of the Restoration of Charles II. Boston used to like to quote Rabelais: "One inch of joy surmounts of grief a span;/Because to laugh is proper to the man."
A second biography, Osbert (1989), was devoted to the cartoonist and designer Osbert Lancaster, and he was working on a third on Cézanne and Zola, being much taken with his discovery that while the two were at the same school in Aix, Zola won the top prize for painting while Cézanne won the prize for literature. There were further books, An Anatomy of Laughter (1974), and collections.
To the end Boston maintained his life-long search for a joke. A few days before he died, a friend visited him in hospital and brought him the papers. Boston said "I had better look at the obituaries pages. I might be in them."

Kerio Connect 8.4
See the release notes at http://www.kerio.com/support/kerio-connect in the Download section.

Kerio Connect Client now allows users to:
- Receive new email instantly with push refresh
- Manage spam whitelists
- Add comments when replying to meeting invitations
- Easily add a hyperlink to text when composing a message
- Lookup and select contacts in your address book when composing a message

- About Kerio Connect Multi-Server
The really interesting one is the multi-server. This apparently isn't ready to rock and roll quie yet ("Kerio Connect Multi-Server is a technology preview recommended for testing, evaluation and feedback.") but it's good to see it. It's going to be a licensed product and I have no idea about cost, but it will let you migrate users between servers for load balancing. This could make very large deployments possible. It will be interesting to watch this develop.

Not sure where I should post this, but I've noticed a small grammar error as part of Wikia's mistake. When creating a new template, you are greeted with a "Choose template type" screen. The "Scrollbox" type's description has "it's", where it is supposed to be "its". Create a template and see for yourself.
The description reads "Scrollbox - This template displays it's contents in a scrollable box." - The "it's" is meant to be "its" in this case.

My final veddict on the technic mod pack for Minecraft; its boring.
So heres the problem, I built a large quarry, set it up mining... so fars its been 2 or 3 days since I did this, I'vve sat around for hours letting it run in the background while I did other things. Its not even halfway done mining. Not only that, but I'm just about breaking even with turning things into diamonds, every so often I've had to convert a few of them into coal to keep the steam engines going (not really to go to the last tier).
So to occipy myself I've plants lots of suage cane to fed the converted thingy and I've devastated the trees around the quarry to top of the ECM rating. Yet... Still... I'm running out of things to do. I'm waiting for the quarry to finish because I want to build over that area and put my main base of operations on top of that huge hole I've made in the ground. Further more until the quaary works itself down another 10 levels, I won't break the profit margain for the operations, because the further you go down in minecraft the more profitable the resources are. But soon I'll have to start starting work on a second quarry... >_<
I'm not even thinking about gather up oil until the first is finished, there is a reason that hole will end up my HQ in the end.
As for the workshed I'm current in... Weeeeell, its cold today. At least in the house the heater was instant heat, the heater in here is a slow release one. You plug it in for two hours and it releass heat for several hours longer then that. It takes it two horus to wamr the air up because of it. :-/

The Cincinnati Bearcats have been known for their high-powered offenses under Tommy Tuberville. Saturday afternoon, Chris Moore became the second Bearcat taken in the fourth round as his teammate Parker Ehinger was selected just two picks ahead of Moore. Moore was taken by the Baltimore Ravens with the ninth pick of the fourth round and 107th overall.
Moore is a Tampa, Florida native he hold the Bearcats All-Time record for receiving touchdowns. During the 2015 season he had 40 receptions, 870 yards, and 7 touchdowns with an average per catch of 21.8 yards. Throughout his playing career he was known for his ability for the big play, I'm pretty sure he would've had over one thousand receiving yards if it wasn't for an ankle injury that knocked him out for a game and a half.
For his career Moore had 119 receptions, 2301 yards, 26 touchdowns and a 19.3 yards per catch average.
The Ravens are desperate for some big play receivers and Moore should get a lot of opportunities to show his worth. I'm pretty sure he will have a chip on his shoulder after seeing a lot of experts had have as a second round pick. The only thing that sucks for Moore is a lot of Bearcats fans or Cincinnati Bengals fans so we he rolls to Paul Brown this season the same people that used to cheer for him might be booing him on a consistent basis.
Per Cincinnati.com
"Hopefully my Bearcats fans don't hate me now, trying to score a touchdown now against the Bengals. It's going to be a nice little homecoming."
UC coach Tommy Tuberville said he was pleased to see the Bearcats break their draft drought.
"It helps your recruiting and gives you some publicity, but mainly I'm just proud for the players," Tuberville said. "Both Parker and Chris obviously earned what they got. I think both of them will be excellent NFL players because of their work ethic, and they've got excellent skills."

John Adams has curated the Los Angeles Philharmonic's "West Coast, Left Coast" festival, and, as you might expect, it's full of the most original and exciting new music born in California. Events honoring the Golden State's heritage as a "sympathetic refuge for creative renegades" this weekend, when Gustavo Dudamel and the L.A. Phil perform two works about Los Angeles: Esa-Pekka Salonen's moody, dreamy LA Variations and John Adams' City Noir, a 30-minute symphony inspired by both L.A.'s noir and jazz-influenced past, along with the amazing Marino Formenti performing the Piano Concerto of the man Adams calls "the quintessential West Coast composer," Lou Harrison. On Tuesday, the Green Umbrella series features Adams conducting the Los Angeles Philharmonic New Music Group and the Kronos Quartet in the brass version of Ingram Marshall's Fog Tropes, Harry Partch's U.S. Highball and selections from Frank Zappa's Yellow Shark. On Thursday, Leonard Slatkin conducts the Phil, Kronos, pianist Joanne Pearce Martin and violinist Bing Wang (pictured) in a program featuring the world premiere of Thomas Newman's It Got Dark and Liquid Interface, by Bay Area electronica wunderkind Mason Bates.

About 1,300 Syrian refugees have already been settled in the Unites States since September 2015. President Obama's goal is to settle 10,000 refugees by the end of this summer. His friends at the State Department are vowing to help by accelerating the amount of refugees brought into the United States each month.
The State Department claims a lack of human resources caused it to fall behind schedule in meeting Obama's goal. The reason they provide is a shortage of personnel available to interview refugees. Nevertheless, the State Department will begin to take in 1,500 refugees per month to ensure they meet President Obama's goal. Thus, putting Americans at risk.
According to The Hill, the State Department is now doing a "surge operation" in Amman, Jordan, that is designed to process the rest of the Syrian refugees in as little as three months. By September 2016, President Obama's goal will be met.
Critics argue that speeding up the process will make it easier for terrorists to go undetected.

Fletcher, in his new book, accused Ponting and his Australian players of verbal abuse, physical intimidation and hypocrisy during England's momentous 2-1 series win over the Aussies last month.
Ponting has been critical of England's tactics of using specialist fieldsmen as substitutes in Test matches.
In his book, "The Coach's Story", to be released next week, Fletcher said Australia had been guilty of flouting the spirit of the game and that Ponting and vice-captain Adam Gilchrist had confronted umpires with "overbearing body language".
Fletcher said Ponting "blew his top" when he smiled at him after he was run out in the fourth Test by Gary Pratt, a crack substitute fielder, who had been subbed on for a bowler.
Ponting said he was disappointed by Fletcher's latest broadside, suggesting it sounded more like England had lost the Ashes, not won them after 18 years.
"I don't recall having any of the umpires speak to me or any of the match officials speak to other than that one incident in which I was fined for," Ponting told reporters here Friday.
"We did everything in our power to play the game in the right spirit.
"I think that was pretty evident right through the whole series and we've been applauded for the way we played through the series.
"I don't know if he's trying to cover his own backside a little bit with a lot of these allegations directed at us now.
"It's all coming after some allegations were made against him about the way England conducted themselves through the tour. To be honest, I don't really care."
Ponting said it was Fletcher's smile from the England team balcony after he was run out by lively fielder Pratt that incensed him and led to him being fined.
"That was probably what got my back up more than anything was to have their coach standing on the balcony smiling at me once I was dismissed from a Test match," he said.
"He knew what the whole substitute issue meant to the Australian cricket team after we made a big song and dance about it before the first one-day international was played at the start of the summer.
"We didn't think it was right. They continued doing it and nothing was done about it."
Australian opening batsman Matthew Hayden questioned why Fletcher had waited until Ponting and the Australian team were home before firing his salvo.
"He's a long, long way away isn't he?" Hayden told reporters. "He's 22 hours flight away isn't he?
"We won't play them for another 18 months and the Australian captain will still be Ricky Ponting and he's going to have a few more titles under his belt than England I would have thought."
Australian paceman Glenn McGrath said Fletcher's accusations of bad sportsmanship were disappointing as the spirit between the two teams had been exceptional throughout the series.
"After every game we went in and had a drink with them and they came in with us and that's the way it should be played (and) hard and tough out in the middle," he said.
"... I went up to the rooms after the Trent Bridge match and Duncan was up there, so I didn't realise there were any problems."

The Ancient Paths Volume 2
By Michael Rood
The second volume in the Hebrew Roots DVD video teaching series from Israel.
Two foundations of Biblical faith were buried by those who rejected the Messiah – and we must once again tread these ancient paths…
A Rood Awakening! Volume 2; Episodes 3& 4 – DVD
Includes: "The Oracles of GOD & The Road to Emmaus" and "The Name"
Episode 3: "The Oracles of GOD & The Road to Emmaus" How did Yochanan (the writer of the Gospel of John) convince his readers that Yahshua was the Messiah? By showing how the Messiah fulfilled the Spring Feasts of the LORD. In the "5th Gospel," the Book of Revelation, Yochanan shows how the Messiah will fulfill the Fall Feasts of the LORD–"good news" for true believers and "bad news" for those who think the Bible is a myth.
Episode 4: "The Name"
The prophets promised that there would be a shaking of the earth in the last days, and that during the time of trouble the Name of the true GOD would become known throughout all the earth! Discover the truth and power in the "Name above all names," for according to Yo'el (the prophet Joel), "Whosoever calls on the Name of the LORD shall be saved!"

PEMBROKE — Givens Performing Arts Center will open its curtains for comedies, Broadway musicals, ballets, concerts and more during its 2016-2017 season.
Included in the lineup is an October tribute concert to Prince, who died earlier this year.
"This season, we're thrilled to bring popular Broadway shows like STOMP and Pippin but we're equally excited to highlight local performers like the N.C. Youth Tap Ensemble and the UNCP Department of Music's Annual Holiday Extravaganza," said Chad Locklear, director of marketing for GPAC.
The 2016-2017 season, announced last week, will include:
— Unelectable You: This Sept. 29 improv comedy show about the presidential campaign will feature sketches, music, improv and multi-media.
— Shanghai Nights: The 100-strong Shanghai Acrobats of the People's Republic of China will bend and flip as they tell stories about Shanghai through movement, music and color on Oct. 18.
— The Purple Xperience: Celebrate the life of Prince with a funky R&B tribute to the late singer during homecoming week at UNCP. The tribute is led by three-time Grammy Award winner and original member of Prince and The Revolution, Matt Fink. The show will be held Oct. 21.
— Annie the Musical: Sing along with America's favorite orphan Annie on Nov. 17. The show is directed by original lyricist and director Martin Charnin and choreographed by Liza Gennaro.
— The Eighth Annual Holiday Extravaganza: Nothing says "we wish you a merry Christmas" like UNCP's long-running holiday show. The show will feature the talents of UNCP performing groups, students and faculty. The Dec. 2 event will also feature a singalong. Proceeds from the extravaganza will go to support music scholarships at UNCP.
— The N.C. Youth Tap Ensemble: Delight in that state's best youth tap ensemble on Jan. 19 with the 40 dancers in the N.C. Youth Tap Ensemble.
— 42nd Street: This novel-turned-stage-show explores the story of an American Dream and the fable of Broadway. The show, on Jan. 26, will feature songs including "We're In The Money," "Lullaby of Broadway," "Shuffle Off To Buffalo," "Dames," "I Only Have Eyes For You" and of course "42nd Street."
— STOMP: Feel the beat and "stomp" your feet to the rhythmic sounds of STOMP on March 21. The eight-member international percussion sensation trades conventional instruments for things like matchboxes, trash cans, brooms, hubcaps and more.
— Swan Lake: The 50-member Russian National Ballet Theatre will present "Swan Lake," a classical production that debuted in 1877, on March 27. It tells the story of Odette, a princess who is turned into a swan by an evil sorcerer's curse.
— Pippin: From the composer of "Wicked," "Pippin" is Broadway's high-flying and death-defying musical, featuring acrobats who perform soaring songs that earned the production four 2013 Tony Awards. The production will be performed April 7 at GPAC.

Homecoming Players
Curved by Kristin Shepherd, directed by Ross Haarstad
With: Darcy Martin, Camilla Schade, Robin Booth, Adara Alston, Kit Wainer, Eileen Hagerty
The last twisted women standing.
Concert Reading. Mondays 6/12 and 6/19, 7:30
CURVED is the newest play by Kristin Shepherd, author of *$38,000 for a Friendly Face* (produced by Homecoming Players in its 2015 season). Through a stylistically intermittent use of stand-up comedy techniques and individual "mic work," it lays bare the relationships among five strong and broken women, age 11 to 80. We watch all five of these appealingly dysfunctional women grapple with love, need, and what it means—and takes—to be alive.

Homecoming Players
Easy Out (world premiere)
by Arthur Bicknell, directed by Rachel Hockett
Come out, come out, whoever you are.
Full Production. 7/28-7/30, Friday and Saturday at 7:30, Sunday at 4:00
The newest play by the author of Homecoming Players' 2014 breakout hit, *Dotty,* EASY OUT focuses on the tumultuous battle for power, raging between Gerald Metcalf—a middle-age, repressed gay man (the teenage protagonist of Bicknell's earlier and critically acclaimed play, *My Great Dead Sister*), and Angel—the boorish and resentful younger sister of Albert (Gerald's narcissistic, homophobic, and currently dying longtime companion). With unlikely assistance from Andy, a charming hospice nurse, Gerald struggles to find a way to break out of the closet and into the unchartered territory of Act Three of his life.

Winner of the Tony for Best Play, as well as the Outer Circle Critics Award for Best Play and a *slew* of other awards, Vanya and Sonia and Masha and Spike is one of the most lauded and beloved Broadway plays of recent years.

From the Mississippi Delta
by Endesha Ida Mae Holland, Ph.D., directed by Sarah K. Chalmers
What she had to do to get where she had to be.
Concert Reading. Mondays 2/6 and 2/13, 7:30
Described by Dr. Holland as a "dramatic biography," From the Mississippi Delta uses three women in eleven anecdotal scenes to provide a compelling glimpse at the early days of the Civil Rights movement, told from the perspective of individuals born and raised in the muck and mire of Mississippi's lethal brand of white supremacy and racial hatred. Through the playwright's raw, explosive, and lyrical storytelling, we get a close-up view of what had to be overcome and what was required of ordinary folks brave enough to get involved in a situation that could and did, literally, cost them their lives and the lives of their loved ones.

Homecoming Players present
Dotty by Arthur Bicknell
To cap off its fourth full season, Homecoming Players is bringing back the wildly popular Dotty, by Arthur Bicknell, which had its world premiere as part of the Kitchen Sink Series in July 2014.
Dorothy ("Dotty") Parker (Kristin Sad), a divorced and once-successful editor and ghost-writer whose career has been rocky (at best) for the past several years, now faces an entirely new set of challenges. Shortly after the death of her father, she moves back to her family home in New England and is obliged to attempt reconciliation (both financially and emotionally) with her irrepressible mother, the once world-famous author of best-selling mysteries, Daphne Louise ("D.L.") Parker (Camilla Schade). Now a resident of Crossroads, a posh senior assisted living center in New England, Daphne is suffering from a late stage of dementia that grows more pronounced daily. Daphne's harsh treatment of her own daughter, coupled with her intimate friendship with Mabel Bean (Carolyn Cadigan), a childlike and fellow Crossroads resident, unleashes Dotty's long-suppressed resentment and jealousy, and ultimately results in an explosive confrontation between mother and daughter, which threatens to tear the fabric of their delicate relationship once and for all.

This rice is excellent for a store brand. It is aromatic, fluffy, doesn't stick together, cooks really nice, and it has a guaranteed aged 1 year minimum.
It love to toast this rice before cooking it so really create the aromatic. Add desired rice to your pot on low-med heat, toss the pot to sift the rice around until you start too see a change in color, then add your water and cook normally. Keep an eye on it while toasting so it doesn't burn.
It is very comparable to more expensive Basmati Rices

A good way to think about much of what a large investment banking business does is to imagine an enormous warehouse. Inside this building are shelves stuffed with every financial asset a bank's customers might want to buy. In one aisle you might find neatly piled up rows of government bonds; on another, stacks of shares in big publicly listed companies.
Look at the language banks use to describe their investment banks and you will indeed see that this is the way they think of the "inventory" in what are often called their "wholesale" banking divisions.
When demand for these products is high, banks can make a very good living out of trading these securities, providing everyone from globe-spanning companies to tiny hedge funds with the assets they want to buy at the touch of a button or with a quick sales call.
However, since the crisis the costs of running these warehouses have risen significantly. Regulators now demand that banks set aside much more capital against their inventories to guard against potential falls in their values.
In the past, for example, a bank might have had to put just £1.5bn of capital behind a £100bn fixed income trading portfolio; today the comparable figure is about £6bn.
As costs have risen, margins have dropped. Many banks have responded by shrinking the size of their warehouses. Royal Bank of Scotland began the crisis with a wholesale bank balance sheet of more than £1 trillion; today the business holds less than £300bn of assets - still a considerable pile, but nothing like the size of the old operation.
With its acquisition of the North America operations of the collapsed Lehman Brothers, Barclays saw the crisis as an opportunity to expand its wholesale arm and attempt to take on Wall Street giants such as Goldman Sachs and JP Morgan.
However, while the move initially looked to work out the rising costs of capital and staff compensation have begun to bite.
American moves to force foreign banks operating in the US to put even more capital into their Wall Street businesses will increase the pressure and, by the end of the year, Barclays must submit detailed plans to regulators on how it intends to fund its North American business.
This is clear protectionist behaviour by the US authorities, but with the British government unlikely to want to have an out and out row in defence of investment bankers, and the European Union likely to exacerbate the row with its financial transactions tax, Barclays will just have to get on with it.
In the same way that many other UK companies have found the land of the free a surprisingly unfriendly market, so Barclays is beginning to realise just how political the US can become when you are not a home-grown company.
This situation has not been helped by the increasing Britishness of the bank. The ousting of Bob Diamond and his largely American senior management team and the recent exits of former Lehman Brothers bankers means Barclays is facing an increasingly hostile regulatory environment without US-born executives with the right connections.
In this sense, Barclays today has a very large warehouse sitting on US soil that is starting to look increasingly vulnerable to attacks by local competitors.
No amount of restructuring can get round this problem. RBS saw the writing on the wall some time ago and is in the process of shrinking its business in the US below the $50bn threshold at which it must comply with the Foreign Companies Holding Act.
Such an option is not open to Barclays. Despite London's importance as a financial centre, you cannot be a credible global investment bank without a major presence in the US.
Antony Jenkins, chief executive of Barclays, will unveil a new strategy for the investment bank on Thursday, but it seems this will amount to tinkering around the edges.
Establishing a "bad bank" is effectively the same as attempting to stem structural losses in a large retail business by holding an out-of-season sale. It will, of course, reduce the balance sheet, but if trading conditions have fundamentally changed, then it will not ultimately save the business.
Barclays is facing nothing short of an existential crisis, which explains why on a book value basis it is currently the cheapest major bank share in the UK, trading at just 80pc of tangible net asset value, compared to RBS at 100pc.
Mr Jenkins and his senior team are facing the type of problems that require a radical rethink of the bank's entire business model. Unfortunately, it seems they are not likely to do what is necessary. That may well be the job of Mr Jenkins' successor, whoever they might be.
