Oregon has been playing great in their past few games and is looking like they might be able to win a conference championship. Colorado has the rebounding advantage in this matchup, but Oregon is the better shooting team. Colorado beat Oregon earlier this season, but I like Oregon to get revenge in this game.

When the fan is plugged in to an electrical outlet, that
electrical energy
is then used to turn the blades of the fan. The
turning of these blades
is classified as mechanical energy.
Thermal to Light
When the
stove top gets hot
, the atoms it is made up of begin to vibrate and the result of this vibration is the emission of
electromagnetic waves in the form of light
Nuclear to Electrical
At a nuclear power plant
nuclear fission
is used to turn water into steam. That steam is then used to power turbines that
generate electricity
Chemical to Light
A glow stick is a good example of chemical energy being transformed into light energy because inside the glowstick there are two chemicals seperated by a thin glass wall. When the wall is broken and the two mix they undergo a
chemical reaction
which results in a glow,
creating light
Thermal to Chemical
thermal energy
from the stove top is being transferred in to the water causing it to boil. When the water gets to a certain temperature it begins to evaporate and
becomes a vapor
. The water is undergoing a chemical change.
Mechanical to Chemical
When somebody uses
mechanical energy
to strike a match, the match undergoes a
and ignites
to create fire.
Light to Electrical
Solar panels work by allowing photons, or
particles of light
, to knock electrons free from atoms, generating a
flow of electricity
Sound to Electrical
When you speak into the telephone,
sound energy
from your voice is being changed into
electrical energy
as it flows through the telephone wires into the other phone (which will be changed back into sound energy).
Nuclear to Light
The sun is an example of nuclear energy because it creates its energy by
nuclear fusion
of hydrogen nuclei into helium. The sun becomes so hot from all this energy that it
creates light
Light to Chemical
The plant converts the
light energy
. This is a
process known
as photosynthesis.
Hydroelectric Energy
Hydroelectricity is the term referring to electricity generated by hydropower; the production of electrical power through the use of the gravitational force of falling or flowing water.
Worldwide, about 20% of all electricity is generated by hydropower.
10% of all the energy in the United States is hydroelectric.
Hydropower is the most efficient way to generate electricity.

I really feel, affirmations are something that is personal to everyone and something that should be adopted through a belief system, so then my question to you is, how to incorporate it into your personal life rather than your personal social media. ( Now that doesn't mean you can't share anything, because I do, but I only share things that I really do believe myself, believe in and try to practice ) This brings me to the popularity trend of turning simple affirmations into artworks, which allow you to have daily reminders in your home in an artistic and stylish way. This allows you to personally pick things and words that really mean something to you and by brining them into your space allows you to remind yourself personally of what inspires you.
Here are some great resources for some really simple affirmation artworks or symbols that can add style to your inspiration and your beliefs for your home.

This week is about moving from the mind to to the body slowly and gently
as a mindful asana practice would flow.
This second week is also about calling the divine, appreciating the holy in things.
Holiness in the woods and fields, holiness in the grey and crowd of cities
with pops of color in flowers and hats.
Divinity in the resistance
and in the used coffee grounds
lapidary wheels
and dirty bibs
Today calls for a walking meditation to be done anytime the well feels plugged and you're not feeling like your breath is quite right. I often feel as though my breath needs a therapy all its own: it can get pretty jagged without the proper amount of care and attention.
When the muscles required to move and release seem to have developed a limited mobility I stop everything I can stop and breathe mindfully, beginning my activities again with a greater sense of ease.
The assignment for today is also a really good kick-through for resistance. It brings it up, makes you aware.
When things have felt tight I've moved into giving my attention to every movement for Orion, for Anthony, for my family. Suddenly doing the dishes opens your heart like a temple door. The mundane becomes holy.
If you're rolling your eyes at this you may need it most!
Today's assignment is this:
Everything you do, please do it as though you were doing it for someone you loved more than anyone else on earth.
Perhaps they've gone before you into The Mystery or they've not yet been born: this will work, too. The greatest love your heart can conceive is what you need to use.
As you boil your tea water, every movement of your fingers is to serve this being.
As you make your breakfast, drive to your job, etc, every turn signal is for them, every
breath and word. Be mindful of your thoughts. Be loving with your actions.
Write about your experience of this mindfulness.
Does this seem exhausting? It's amazing how much it can feel like work to give attention to the daily tasks, even if in doing so we are setting ourselves free from some heavy chains.
Let yourself feel exhausted. If you are resisting, do so for your beloved. You'll find it melts like milk chocolate.
Ideally your art is serving someone:

Survival in a global era: Gandhian ideologies and the making and unmaking of formerly untouchable leather workers in India
This paper examines a case study of a group where their struggles were focused on their self-emancipation and idealised sense of local community rather than the entrenched structured inequalities.
In examining the significance of global – local interrelationships shaping marginalised peoples, contemporary anthropology of India tends to frame this articulation in the form of the experiences and histories from below by largely drawing on the Subaltern studies scholarship. This usually consists of how local communities utilise nationalist, traditional and translocal signs and ideologies to engage in their own contestations.
By contrast, this paper examines a case study of a group where their struggles were focused on their self-emancipation and idealised sense of local community rather than the entrenched structured inequalities. Based on long term intensive fieldwork in an urban neighbourhood in India, it analyses the experiences of a community of leather workers, known as the Rabi Das, who are currently displaced and dispossessed in the global economy. Concerned with exclusionary practices of untouchability, a group of Gandhian activists in the 1940s began mobilising the Rabi Das, whose ritually polluting status had barred them from social intercourse with others outside their enclave. This paper examines transformations of the Rabi Das self-identity as craftsmen and the simultaneous, paradoxical outcomes of a post-Independence dirigiste development that has rendered a blow to their artisanal activities. It focuses on the Gandhian social reformers' inculcation of cleanliness, middle class mores, and especially their attempts to make the leather workers discover a dignity in their craft. Following the accounts of Rabi Das acquiescence and resistance, it considers the uneasy relationship between the survival of their hereditary occupation of shoemaking in a globalised leather industry and the Gandhian 'gifts' of middle class aspirations.

A reboot to the '95 Mortal Kombat film is in active development, with James Wan producing and Simon McQuoid tapped to direct. While there's no official confirmation of McQuoid joining the project just yet, we do know that Greg Russo has already penned a first draft of the script. However, with the #reboot still in early development, the Mortal Kombat plot could undergo massive changes before anything becomes concrete.
As fans eagerly await the film's arrival, there's a plethora of questions we need answered. One important query has to do with the cinematic universe that #MortalKombat is set to take place in and the fact that it might have a connection to the DC Extended Universe.
Warner Bros. Owns The Rights To Mortal Kombat
Before going any further, a few things need to be made clear. The first thing is that the #MortalKombat property has been under the ownership of #WarnerBrothersPictures since 2009. That year, due to bankruptcy, the original proprietor of the Mortal Kombat franchise, Midway Games, was forced to sell the property to the highest bidder. That bidder was Warners. And the second point is that the reboot currently in development is being spearheaded by Warner Bros.
So why is this information relevant now? Because there's a very good chance that the reboot will take place within the existing DC Extended Universe. Since Warners gained proprietorship over Mortal Kombat, there have been several instances of crossovers between the characters in that franchise and the #DCEU, most of which have taken place in video games.
And considering that the prospect of intermingling Mortal Kombat with DC has been toyed with in the past, it's plausible that Warner Bros. will set up the Mortal Kombat reboot somewhere within the established DCEU.
Past Crossovers Between Mortal Kombat And DC
The latest joint venture between Mortal Kombat and DC took place in the Injustice: Gods Among Us video game. The two properties crossed over in a very minimal capacity, by including the Mortal Kombat character Scorpion within the gameplay.
Another instance of intermingling took place in the crossover fighting game Mortal Kombat vs. DC Universe, which made the prospect of the two properties existing alongside each other much more believable. The main campaign within the game depicts a plot thread from each respective property interlacing with the other, displaying characters jumping into the opposing universe. With that in mind, the Mortal Kombat reboot could reasonably exist within or alongside the DCEU, similar to how the two met in this game. Check out the trailer below.
Crossovers between the two franchises have made sense in the #videogame medium, which could mean a cinematic crossover is a move to make down the line. At first, both properties may not be able to interweave, seeing as the Mortal Kombat reboot has duty to establish a universe for itself before attempting to cross over with another separate universe. However, once the Mortal Kombat universe is established, there's no telling where the story could go, which is why a crossover with a DC title could believably happen.
Could Mortal Kombat Cross Over With The DCEU?
To sum it all up, since there have been several prior instances of DC and Mortal Kombat crossing over with one another in video games, along with Warner Bros. leading both the DCEU and the upcoming Mortal Kombat reboot, it's safe to say the potential for a crossover between the two is very high.
In the scenario of Mortal Kombat existing within the DCEU, the reboot could believably exist in a parallel DC universe.
A similar explanation was given in Mortal Kombat vs. DC Universe, when the two separate universes collided, resulting in a cataclysm between their worlds. If the Mortal Kombat reboot is destined to cross over with DC, then the existence of Mortal Kombat can be explained as the universe being on a parallel line, separate from the known DCEU.
What do you think? Should the Mortal Kombat reboot take place within the established DCEU? Or should Mortal Kombat be given its own universe? Leave your thoughts in the comments section.

andersen cord replacement
A contractor from palenville ny says:
March 28, 2016
how do i determine which cord assembly i need?
Do i have to remove it to get number off it?
Do i have to remove it to get number off it?
Paul from SWISCO responded:
March 29, 2016
Yes, removing the balance and telling us each number printed on it is the best way to determine the match. If you know what Andersen series window you have, and if you were to give us the visible glass size of both sashes (width x height), we can try our best to match it up that way.

State Assembly recommends imposition of curbs on extraction of water by the plant.
Taking a serious note of the alleged exploitation of groundwater by Pepsi, a committee of the Kerala Assembly today recommended imposition of curbs on extraction of water by the multinational cola giant's plant at Pudussery in Palakkad district.
The report, tabled in the Assembly, however, did not ask for the closure of the plant, which provides employment to 3,500 people. The plant, situated over 53 acres, uses nearly 48.5 per cent of the ground water, according to the report.
Panel Chairman and state Water Resources Minister N K Premachandran said the key suggestion was to impose restrictions on water extraction by Pepsi at 234,000 litres per day from the current average of 700,000 litres a day.
On the issue whether the plant was causing water pollution, the report said the possibility could not be ruled out, but required detailed study.
The committee said industrial units using groundwater as the main raw material should be generally discouraged. The report comes at a time when a high-level panel is finalising its report on "socio-economic" damage allegedly caused by the Coca Cola plant at Plachimada, also in Palakkad district, which has been declared a drought-hit area. Premachandran said the high-level committee, headed by Additional Chief Secretary K Jayakumar, is expected to submit the report soon.
A PepsiCo spokesperson said: "We have just learnt about the report tabled in the Kerala Assembly and will need to go through it in detail before commenting on it."
"However, Palakkad is a model plant and is one of the most water efficient units in the PepsiCo system. Through innovative recycling and recharging techniques, the plant has been able to save about 200 million litres of water in the last four years and has also brought down the water usage by 60 per cent."
The spokesperson added that: "An independent study in 2009, by a renowned research institute, concluded that the impact of PepsiCo's Palakkad plant on the depleting ground water level in the area is insignificant. According to the report, PepsiCo is utilising only 0.7 per cent of the total annual water consumption in the area. It further states that the groundwater use by the PepsiCo plant is negligible in comparison to other water users."
Incidentally, rival Coca-Cola India, too, was charged with ground-water depletion in the past. In 2004, following investigation by the Central Ground Water Board in Kaladera, Rajasthan, the multinational was held responsible for depleting ground water level in the region. The company's plant was found to be extracting huge amounts of ground water causing ecological imbalances in the region.

Sheldon the Chinchilla
Sheldon loves people! He is our grey chinchilla. This is the most common color of chinchilla, however they also come in ebony, black velvet, beige, brown velvet, white, and even violet! Sometimes when you cross breed the different colors you can get what they call a mosaic, this is when you have a couple shades of color instead of just a solid color. Chinchillas have extremely soft fur and are on the endangered species list because of this. Chinchillas were hunted for their fur in their native land, the Andes Mountains of South America.
Chichillas take dust baths is a very fine "volcanic dust." This is what helps keep them so soft and helps to keep their fur from matting. Sheldon does not like to take baths. We often have to help him bath because he will not roll around in the dust like most chinchillas to get clean!

Last year she read 383 books! No, I did not mistype. That is more than a book a day.
Addiction? Obsession? Passion? Let's find out. Please welcome Shelley from Gizmo's Reviews.
Hi Nikki! It's a pleasure to be here! Thanks so much for having me!
The immediate question that comes to mind is how do you find TIME to read this many books? (Please tell me some of them are short stories or at least novellas.) And, secondly, how do you manage to write all the reviews that go with them?
The honest answer to this question is that I've been out of work for a few years and have nothing better to do with my time than read and write. Perhaps, if I was working full time again, I would be reading a great deal less. Or, if my writing WIP really made sense to me and I tried to get it published, things may have worked out differently. My enjoyment of reading found a new kick start when I stopped working.
More than 90 percent of the books I read were full length novels. Yes, that pretty much means I was reading a book a day, sometimes more. There are, of course, some novellas thrown in there for good measure but not that many.
As for the reviews, I am a wee bit behind at the moment after learning about a family members health concern and trying to mentally deal with it which was a struggle. I take copious notes while reading so that I can go back and remember key points and characters as I am reading a novel. This is something I recommend to everyone unless you have perfect memories or write reviews immediately upon finishing your book!
You read 383 books last year and just as many in 2011 (if I'm not mistaken), any plans to "slow" down in 2013?
You are definitely correct. I read more than 400 books in 2011 which was also my first year of blogging. As for 2013, it all depends on my families health, real life in general, and whether or not I finally get burned out from reading so much.
As of right now, I still have over 70 books scheduled to be read between now and July. If you haven't already guessed, I have an obsession with requesting books from Netgalley & Edelweiss as well as my local library.
What compels you to read a book or more per day? Does it ever feel like a chore – like Book Reading Boot Camp or homework?
I would say that it's from the lack of any real motivation to do anything else, the fact that I've lived alone for years, and the fact that on a normal night, there is absolutely nothing on the TV for me to watch. Also, having a Kindle makes things easier for me to take my reading to the beach, or on the road, or when I have different appointments to attend to. I don't feel as though reading is a chore; at least not yet. Keeping up on the Household itself is the chore!
Biggest pet peeves? (Love triangles, cliff hangers, etc.)
Excellent Question! My biggest pet peeves are: weak and ineffectual heroines who have to rely on a male character to help save them time and time again; Heroines who are "changed" over the course of a series from human into something else because that is "expected" by readers of PNR, and UF series.
I don't mind characters finding out early in a series or book that they are different from everyone else around them. I don't mind that they are "changed" after being attacked and have no choice but to figure out how to live in their new skin. I can handle that. I'm most likely in the minority with this particular fact but I'm okay with that.
Love triangles irk me when they are done poorly or because that's what everyone else is doing these days. If it's done with respect to the characters involved, then I don't complain as much.
Cliffhangers are what they are. Even though I may dislike them, I can see their uses in keeping readers entangled in the story line which then carries over into the next book. I will still complain, moan, and groan, but that is my right as a reader.
Favorite place to read? Favorite reading beverage?
My favorite place to read is in my recliner usually with my cat sitting alongside me keeping me company.
Favorite beverage(s) are Pepsi, Sweet Tea, and Lemonade. I live in the south people, I love Sweet Tea!
Percentage of ebooks you read vs. paperback?
I would say that as of right now, the percentage of E-Books is much higher than paperbooks/hardbacks. The reason for that is quite simple; the library has come into the 21st century, more publishers are providing E-ARCs than hard copies; and I'm absolutely addicted to my Kindle!
What early influences (Family? Friends? Life? Particular books?) ignited your love of reading?
I would have to say former co-workers who shared their books with me and I them. Book sales where you can get a bag of books for a really cheap price! Life in that I learned about different social outlets where books were being discussed and traded. My mother was a romance novel reader when I was growing up. The rest of us would laugh at her. Now, we all pretty much read different genres and trade books back and forth. It's not unusual for my father to send me a box of books, and I return the favor when I have enough to fill a box. My sister has picked up on reading as well and is a huge fan of vampires (romance) and Dean Koontz. As for particular books, I would say that when I started discovering different authors and their series my interest in reading really grew into an obsession. I found myself making lists of authors, their series and slowly but surely trying to catch up to current releases. To say that I follow A LOT of authors would be a fair assessment.
How many books out of say 300 (or what percent) do you purchase yourself vs. review copies?
Looking back at the books I read, I probably purchased maybe 10-15 percent of the books I read. I received the rest from either my library (big source!) who has really come into the 21st century, publishers who send me books on a monthly basis, Amazon.com because of my Kindle, NetGalley, and Edelweiss.
What are your best sources for review copies?
Without hesitation or reservation, NetGalley and Edelweiss make up 80 percent of all review copies that I receive. 20 percent are from authors and direct from publishers.
Your review policy is open to self-published authors. What type of books do you love best? Can you name a few of your favorite indie reads to give us an idea of your reading tastes?
I enjoy reading Urban Fantasy, Paranormal Romance, Dysopian, Steampunk, and Mysteries. I'm open to reading contemporary, and historical as well. Tim O'Rourke is an independent author whose books go over extremely well with me. I have tremendous respect for indie authors and try to accomodate as many as possible into my schedule when I'm not backed against the wall with release day reviews etc.
Do you have any other obsessions we should know about? ;)
This is going to sound boring, but, I would say my cat is one of my obsessions. He keeps me busy, entertains me on a daily basis, and knows exactly when I'm in the mood, as it were. My other obsession includes watching NCIS, Arrow, and Supernatural.
I'd like to thank Shelley for guesting here today. I don't know about you guys, but I'm Blown Away by the amount of reading she does! (Maybe it's time to up my Goodreads goal. LOL.)

Raiders' Jack Del Rio throws in rookies against Titans' offense
Updated 6:36 pm, Sunday, September 25, 2016
NASHVILLE — Raiders head coach Jack Del Rio likes to talk about how tough the schedule is, but he used it to his advantage Sunday.
After his defense was torched by the Saints and the Falcons in the first two games, he knew the 15-points-a-game Titans were a good opponent against which to throw rookies Karl Joseph and Cory James into the fire.
Joseph, a safety, and James, an inside linebacker, got their first starts, and they responded, sharing the team lead with six solo tackles. Joseph, the team's first-round pick, was playing on defense for the first time, after being on the field only for special teams the first two weeks.
"I thought he gave us a little bit of a spark, having him in," Del Rio said. "Cory James did some good things. I thought they held up pretty well and there will be a lot to learn from."
Joseph was replacing Keith McGill. James took Ben Heeney's spot.
Joseph is not one to shy away from contact, even at 5-foot-10.
"He was coming up hitting," cornerback Sean Smith said. "I was surprised, being so small, that he was throwing his body in there at those big backs they've got. He played fast, he was loud, made all the calls. I was happy for him."
Joseph cramped up at halftime and missed the Titans' one touchdown drive before returning.
"I wasn't trying to do too much or do anything extra but just do my job," Joseph said.
Big foot: Sebastian Janikowski made a 52-yard field goal in the second quarter to become the NFL's all-time leader in field goals of 50 yards or more (53). He passed former Lions kicker Jason Hanson and also moved ahead of Cal alum Ryan Longwell for 14th all-time in points scored.
Janikowski has 500 career field-goal attempts in the regular season and postseason combined.
Watson on 'hiatus': Right tackle Menelik Watson left the game in the second quarter with a lower leg injury, then tweeted that he was "on hiatus" for a while. Rookie Vadal Alexander finished the game. He's the fifth player the Raiders have used at right tackle this season.
Watson injured his groin in the opener, and then Matt McCants went down with a knee injury. Left tackle Donald Penn moved to the right side to close out that game, and then Austin Howard returned from an ankle injury to play every snap at right tackle in Week 2. He reinjured it and Watson was back from his first injury Sunday.
"We've played them all over there and we've done a good job," Del Rio said. "We gave up one sack on the day."
Cooler heads: The Raiders dealt with the heat — Derek Carr called it "a cold Fresno day" — with a little help from their security unit, which held up white material on the sideline to provide some shade.
"We had a lot of ice towels and some shade," linebacker Malcolm Smith said. "Our security guys did a great job on our side. I really want to thank them."

Mr. NELSON of Florida. Mr. President, our Nation faces an alarming judicial vacancy rate. I am grateful that today we will be voting to confirm U.S. Magistrate Judge Robin Rosenbaum to fill a judicial emergency in the Southern District of Florida for a Federal district judgeship. She earned her undergraduate degree at Cornell, her law degree from Miami. She began her legal career in the U.S. Attorney General's Honors Program where she worked as a trial attorney in the Federal Programs Branch of the Civil Division. She has worked in private practice at Holland & Knight and as a law clerk to Judge Stanley Marcus, U.S. Circuit Court Judge for the 11th Circuit Court of Appeals, and she has worked as an Assistant U.S. Attorney down in the Southern District of Florida.
Our State has a great tradition of bipartisan support for our Federal judicial nominees going back a couple of decades. Of course, through this judicial nominating commission, she has come forth with their stamp of approval. The two Senators from Florida agree. I am happy to recommend her to the Senate.
I ask for the yeas and nays.

text: This one truly was a nutcraker. Everything that could go wrong, did go wrong. We couldn't have dreamed up a worse combination of weather events. Anywho, it was replacemnt of a part block, part timber, part stone retaining wall across two properties. It is on a lake, so we had to wait until draw-down, which starts on Columbus day. Of course, we had an extremely wet fall, so the water was much higher than it typically is that time of year, and we didn't get started until Nov. 1 The portion of wall where we started is the beach that curves in away from the lake, so even though the water was still against portions of the wall, we went in and started on this section. Almost immediatly upon commencement of excavation, I ran into something really hard. As I unearthed it, we realized it was a huge piece of concrete. We would later find out, from the neighbor, that there was a 6' concrete wall poured in 1975. In the spring of 1978, it fell over. Previous owners built the new walls right in front or, or on top of these pieces. In order to dig deep enough for base, and to stay as exactly as humanly possible on the existing footprint (strict state waterfront guideline), the pieces had to come out. I'll start with a couple before pics:

Insurance for Older Cars
Peter Best Insurance Services Ltd is an independent insurance broker specialising in classic car and classic motor bike insurance, with over 30 years experience in the collectable car, motorcycle and commercial vehicle markets. Our classic insurance portfolio has evolved to meet the changing needs of both the traditional and modern classic driver and rider.
Established in 1985 by Peter and Marian Best, the company was set up initially to facilitate the insurance needs of members of the MG Car Club. Being MG owners themselves, Peter and Marian set out to develop specialist car club schemes to accommodate the insurance requirements of a number of the other well known car clubs across the country. For nearly three decades we have built on this ethic of putting customer needs first and providing comprehensive insurance policies suited to your individual requirements.
Schemes, Clubs, Location
We operate from two Essex based offices located in Kelvedon and Maldon.
We look after a wide range of car club schemes, including marques such as MG, Mercedes Benz, Morgan, Triumph, Jaguar and Rover. Equally, classic Land Rovers are a very important part of our business.
Other schemes we currently offer include classic motorcycle insurance and cover for Morris, Volvo, Saab, camper vans, collectable commercial vehicles and kit cars.
Over the years we have forged strong connections with many car clubs. This enables us to offer specialist policies to existing club members, providing they can supply us with their membership details. Please take a look in the useful links section where we have listed some of the clubs' website addresses, as we are keen to support clubs to grow.
Not Just Classics
Although we specialise in the classic car and motorcycle markets, we are active in most areas of insurance. In recent years PBIS has successfully incorporated additional insurance products which apart from private motor, household and travel include business insurance (shop/office etc.), as well as professional indemnity and liability covers.
For further information on these products please contact us.
Our Staff

[xyz] A Story About Central Banks, Currency Wars, and Politicians blogs.wsj.com/marketbeat ··· ticians/ What has been a building theme for some time, central bank intervention in the markets, is going to go into overdrive in 2013, with the brewing currency war among the major central banks as each tries to devalue its way to prosperity. But don't blame central bankers (at least not completely). Political leaders deserve a big dollop of the blame as well.
The unappreciated spark to this currency-war trend is something noted today by Opinion page columnist Dan Henniger: "A reality has become too obvious for the world's dazed inhabitants not to notice: The greatest threat to the upward arc of human progress is the collapse of public policy making. That is the biggest cliff of all." In Japan, they've elected the seventh prime minister in six years. In Europe, they've raised kicking the can to an art form.
In the U.S., the fiscal cliff debate shows how deadlocked, and ineffective, the government has become. In the wake of this, central bankers are stepping into the breach http://blogs.wsj.com/marketbeat/2012/12/27/a-story-about-central-banks-currency-wars-and-politicians/
[xyz] Central Bank to Keep Monetary Policy Stable China's central bank said Thursday it will continue to implement a prudent monetary policy next year and pay close attention to potential financial risks. The People's Bank of China (PBOC) said in a statement that it will keep policies stable and make monetary policies more forward-looking, targeted and flexible. The central bank will fulfill its obligation to safeguard financial stability and strive to prevent systemic and regional financial risks, the statement said.
[xyz] ...Earlier this year, the PBOC lowered benchmark interest rates twice, as well as cut commercial banks' reserve requirement ratio, or the amount banks must put aside as reserves, to bolster the slowing economy. The government has vowed to maintain a proactive fiscal policy and prudent monetary policy in 2013, as the global economy is expected to maintain slow growth, according to a central economic work conference held earlier this month http://english.cri.cn/6826/2012/12/28/191s740718.htm

To me all the things said on this site tells me that Iraq or maliki will stop at nothing to keep this investment to themselves greed is a big factor in this . I myself think our greedy government is controling this so they can extract a large tax of capital gains to bail them out of a jam. I just wish there where some way out of not letting our uncle Sam profit from this and let us be to take our own way . Good luck to everyone and god bless the Intel people for the info out there.

After trying to find the boy's parents or guardian, the woman brought the boy to a nearby police station, Ludwig said. Officers had not been able to determine his name or other personal information about him.
The boy was placed in the custody of the L.A. County Department of Children and Family Services. He appeared scared but in good health, Ludwig said.
But the boy was reunited with his mother late Wednesday night, said LAPD Officer Rosario Herrera. The boy had been in the care of a babysitter when he was discovered roaming alone, she said.

The tri-bar fidget spinner adds another level of use to the original dual-bar spinner. The tri-bar device is able to be manipulated in a wide variety of ways which can be even more soothing for the user. A lot of adults with ADHD and anxiety find the tri-bar spinner configuration to be the most pleasing.
When a person suffers from ADHD or anxiety they constantly feel the need to be moving or doing something. This can lead to poor concentration and is often treated with medication such as Adderall. But ADHD medications have many unwanted side effects and are not always the best route.
Fidget Spinners allow adults and kids suffering from ADHD to focus their extra energy into the spinner. This can help with concentration, relaxation, and other powerful benefits.
Fidget Spinners are also known to help with mild to moderate anxiety and stress. Research shows that physical activity, even a little foot-tapping, gum chewing or in our case fidget spinning, increases levels of neurotransmitters in the brain which control focus and attention. A subtle fidget can help block out distractions, fight boredom, and increase productivity.
They are also extremely addictive to play with! Get yours today.
