Ericaceous dwarf shrublands which are settled above the timberline on a long stretch of the Northern Apennines were studied with the Braun-Blanquet approach. Phytosociological data were numerically treated through the following steps: 1) species ranking by a variance criterion; 2) classification of relevés and species based on the reduced species set; 3) characterization of the resulting types by analysis of concentration. The following three main vegetation types were recognized: a) Empetro-Vaccinietum gaultherioidis subass. juncetosum trifidi, which is the shrubland corresponding to the sites with less suboceanic climate; b) Rhododendretum ferruginei, which is a very rare, sometimes fragmentary community settled on small areas, and c) Hyperico richeri-Vaccinietum gaultherioidis, which corresponds to the sites with suboceanic climate. The first two have a high similarity with the corresponding vegetation types from the Alps and are their most southern known examples in Italy. The third type is typical of the Northern Apennines and has only fragmentary examples southwards on this chain. On rare and small areas two impoverished plant communities which are related to the Empetrum-Vaccinietum were also described: Thymus alpigenus/Vaccinium gaultherioides community, on summit windy sites with rocky soils, and Polygonatum verticillatum/Vaccinium gaultherioides community on summit sites on low mountains towards the north-western end of the Northern Apennine dwarf shrublands. The summit dwarf shrublands of the Northern Apennines are dominated by boreal and south-european orophytes, to whom arctic-alpine taxa are added into the Empetro-Vaccinietum gaultherioidis subass. juncetosum trifidi. At high syntaxonomical levels the Empetro-Vaccinietum gaultherioidis subass. juncetosum trifidi and the related impoverished plant communities are to be included in the alliance Loiseleurio-Vaccinion. The Rhododendretum ferruginei and the Hyperico richeri-Vaccinietum gaultherioidis belong to the Rhododendro-Vaccinion. Such dwarf shrublands are chiefly related to differences in the snow cover duration and height. All the plant communities stress the phytogeographic connection among the Northern Apennine summit vegetation and the subalpine vegetation belt of the Alps.

The Top Gear producer attacked by Jeremy Clarkson in a fracas which cost the BBC presenter his job has said he does not want to press charges against his former colleague.
Oisin Tymon has told North Yorkshire Police he does not want to take any further action against Clarkson, who was this week told his Top Gear contract will not been renewed by the BBC after an angry and lengthy tirade in a hotel over food.
Mr Tymon's lawyer, Paul Daniels, today issued a statement in which he said: "Mr Tymon has informed the police that he doesn't want to press charges.
"The events of the last few weeks have been extremely unpleasant for everyone involved. The matter has taken a great toll on Oisin, his family and his friends.
"Quite simply, Mr Tymon just wishes to return now to the job at the BBC he loves, as soon as possible. Further, the BBC have, in his view, taken action with a view to addressing the issues at hand.
"Mr Tymon agrees with the BBC's stated view that all parties should now be allowed to move on, so far as possible."
North Yorkshire Police said the force is still investigating the incident.
A spokesman said: "Inquiries are ongoing."
The producer had his lip split in a 30-second-long assault on March 4 at the hands of Clarkson, and had to take himself to hospital with his injuries.
He was also shouted at by the former Top Gear presenter in a torrent of verbal abuse in a hotel in North Yorkshire.
Clarkson reported the incident to the BBC five days later and was suspended by the broadcaster on March 10.
The outspoken presenter received widespread public support – including from his friend, Prime Minister David Cameron – while one million people signed a petition calling for the BBC to reinstate him.
But on Wednesday, BBC director-general Tony Hall announced he would not be renewing Clarkson's contract, saying "a line has been crossed" and that "there cannot be one rule for one and one rule for another" .
Mr Tymon, who has previously described Clarkson as a "unique talent", has come under sustained abuse on social media for his involvement in the dispute.
Clarkson refused to answer when asked if he was worried about being arrested yesterday.
Instead, he said: "All I would like to say is, I wish people would leave Ois alone because none of this was his fault."
When he was asked what he would like to say to fans who may be upset about him leaving the show, he replied: "Everybody's upset."
Two major companies, Sky and Channel 4, are understood to have ruled out working with Clarkson, while ITV would not comment on "a BBC issue".
Chris Evans leads the betting as favourite to take over at the show, even though he has ruled himself out on more than one occasion.

- Scott Raychel
- Kenneth Keener of Subatomic
The beauty of being in a local punk scene is that if there is something you want to change or something you want to make happen, you have the power to do it yourself. DIY is a concept as old as punk rock itself. Kenneth Keener knows this all too well, which is why he started Punks Don't Give A Fest, a Hoosier punk summit of Indianapolis punk and hardcore bands in a one-day show filled with circle pits, not spin kicks. Keener, whose own band Subatomic will be playing the show, talks about the inspiration for Punks Don't Give A Fest and the local bands he's currently most excited about.
NUVO: Where did you get the idea for Punks Don't Give A Fest?
KK: I was getting tired of hearing the same old stuff from people "the scene is dead" "the bands that do play are all the same", so I wanted to put on a huge show to prove them wrong, showcasing the vitality and diversity of Indiana and Midwest music that falls under the general term punk.
NUVO: Do you feel like people should still have this complaint one year later?
KK: I don't think that complaint is ever really valid. Bands come and go and your sub-genre of choice might not be as strong as you want it to be, but if your scene isn't what you want - do something about it instead of complaining.
NUVO: What are some of the local bands you're most excited about and why?
KK: Piss Artist deserves all the attention they've been getting, super abrasive hardcore punk and I admire and envy their momentum, that band's got moxie, I tell ya! Chaotic Neutral is somehow like being hit by a train and mauled by a rabid dog at the same time, Rat Storm has changed their sound a bit but is still one of the most socially conscious bands around, Bleach Drinker is an interesting cocktail of influences, and Mr. Clit and the Pink Cigarettes blew me away, playing a style you don't see much of anymore but still keeping it interesting and just slightly off in all the right ways. I've also heard good things about quite a few younger bands but haven't checked them out personally yet so I can't very well give them my endorsement.

We had lunch at MLC yesterday and it was FANTASTIC. Truly brilliant. My husband had the Cuban American, I had the Roast Beef sammich, and we shared an order or fries. The names of those dishes do not do them justice. :)
The roast beef had a fantastic horseradish sauce, onion jam, and fresh rocket and it was just... oh so damn good. The Cuban had pork belly (crisped) and ham and cheese (swiss I think). My husband got the MLC pickle on the side and I ate that (again SO damn GOOD, he doesn't like pickles, lunatic)
The fries were perfect. Absolutely perfect. I like my fries crisp and I usually don't bother with eating them when they're served around here because for some reason the fries are typically flaccid or squidgey or a bit smooshy. These were crisp on the outside, lovely fluffy potato on the inside, weren't too thick (I prefer thin fries), were cut from whole potatoes (still had the skin on), and served with an old bay aoli that was brilliant. They also make their own catsup. That was sweeter than I like, but it also went well with the fries. There were also plenty of fries to share.
It was on the expensive end for lunch, we spent $30 (almost exactly) for two sandwiches, an order of fries, and one Mexican coke. I probably could have been satisfied for less money if I'd ordered, say, the pork buns appetizer, but it was all so good. I'm glad I don't live closer, though. I'd blow my dining out budget on this place ALL the TIME.
Also, they redecorated. It's still a comfy space, but a bit more sleek and looks more upscale.
They just started serving Sunday lunch today. They also serve dinners and the dinner menu is different from the lunch menu. They sometimes have goat. I WANT GOAT. I have to go back of an evening sometime.
Anyway, go... do yourself a favor, and go. Also, if you've been please post your experiences here and talk about what you had. I want to live vicariously. :)

By Jeremy Silva, ILRF Intern
Representatives from Central American labor and human rights organizations came to the U.S. on November 4th to testify in front of the Inter-American Commission on Human Rights on behalf of the Regional Campaign Against Labor Flexibility. At the hearing, the campaign presented various cases demonstrating a systematic assault on workers' basic labor rights throughout Central America. Before testifying on Friday, nine representatives covering all 6 countries in Central America gathered last Thursday at the AFL-CIO to share their struggles and develop strategies for the region. The discussion was sponsored by the AFL-CIO, the Solidarity Center, WOLA and the ILRF. While representatives detailed the unique cases of labor rights violations within their own countries, all agreed that a general failure to enforce labor rights existed throughout Central America as a result of almost universally deficient justice systems.

Born in 1989 and raised in Eugene, Oregon, guitarist Brooks Robertson was 11 when he took up guitar and not much older when he became a student of the legendary fingerstyle guitarist, the late Buster B. Jones.
By the time Robertson was 14, he was playing on Garrison Keillor's National Public Radio classic: "A Prairie Home Companion."
At age 17, Robertson had 200 gigs under his belt performing with Jones. That same year he released his solo debut "American Fingerstyle."
Recently inducted in the Clark County Hall of Fame (Vancouver, Washington), John Standefer started playing guitar in 1963. By the time he was 16, he was working as a professional guitarist and teacher.
Pulling in all kinds of interests into his music repertoire, including folk, pop, jazz, European waltz and bossa nova — Standefer is the winner of the 2002 National Fingerstyle Guitar Contest and open division winner of the 2004 International Home of the Legends Competition.
Saturday night, Robertson and Standefer are playing Pacifica Performances.
The two men, separately, have performed for a number of years at the annual, world-renowned Chet Atkins Appreciation Society Convention, held in Nashville, Tennessee in July. In 2012, they got to talking and realized they live 25 miles apart.
"I invited Brooks over for a cup of coffee and a little jam session at 9 a.m. on a Friday," Standefer said. "At about 5 p.m., we looked up and said, 'gee, it's about dinner time.'"
The two recognized from that very first "coffee" that there was some kind of special magic going on. They then set about the many-months task of arranging and rehearsing to launch an act.
"We're tough to separate these days," Robertson laughed.
Concerts in 2013 took them all over Washington, Oregon, Ohio, Arizona, California and Michigan, and into New York City, Chicago and Nashville. 2014 concerts to date have included multiple gigs in Washington and Oregon, with a number of stops in California leading up to and after their Pacifica performance. Their record "We Came To Play," came out in November of 2013.
Some of the tunes on their Saturday night set list will come from that critically-acclaimed CD — "Jus d'Orange," "Wizard of Oz Medley," "Fire & Rain," "Summertime," "Hallelujah" and "Girl From Ipanema." Robertson will play his amplified Ramirez classical guitar and Standefer is on his Eastman "Pagelli" F-hole Acoustic-Electric. The guitarists are also offering a pre-performance, 2-hour fingerstyle guitar workshop at 3 p.m.
The two men described each other on guitar.
"Brooks is rooted in the power-picking machine-gun style of Buster B. Jones," Standefer said. "He's also influenced by Chet Atkins, Tommy Emmanuel and Jerry Reed. He has a great underpinning as he develops his own style of playing."
"John plays just about anything you can do on fingerstyle guitar," Robertson said of Standefer, "Chet Atkins style, country, folk, pop, bossa nova, swing, jazz and a lot of original material, basically a 50-year long accumulation."
They have a lot of fun gigging together.
"We just have the 'magic spark,' a lot of synergy," Robertson said.
"Our backgrounds and ages are very different and yet we play together like two peas in a pod," Standefer said. "The outcome is unlike anyone else you'll hear because of these unusual elements being combined. And we have a ball working out arrangements together."

Although he fractured an ankle in Week 2 and hasn't played since, lineman Hubert Mays of Memphis (Tenn.) Whitehaven always figured he'd have the opportunity to compete again this season because his squad had playoff potential.
"I knew my teammates would give me another chance to play," Mays said.
He was right.
Article Continues Below
Whitehaven currently is 8-0 and has earned a spot in the postseason. If all goes as planned, the 6-feet-6, 260-pounder will be healthy in time for the first round of the playoffs.
"The doctor tells me I'm recovering," Mays said. "My leg is going to be stronger than ever. I could play next week, but I'm going to wait until the playoffs. I'm rehabbing every day, three times a day."
On the recruiting front, Mays claims offers from Arkansas State, Central Arkansas, Memphis, Middle Tennessee and Western Kentucky. Memphis and Middle Tennessee are recruiting him the hardest, he said.
Colleges are telling Mays he could play either offensive tackle or defensive end.
"I'm more aggressive," he said. "I kind of like defense, but I'd be willing to play either one."
Right now, no teams stand out.
"I don't have anybody in front," Mays said. "I'm really trying to see who is going to back off because of my injury. I want to see who has faith in me. From there, I can see where my home is going to be."
According to Mays, Southern Miss and Vanderbilt also are showing interest.
"I here from different schools every day," he said. "With Vanderbilt, more than likely I'll have an offer from them soon. I talk to their coaches and they seem to really like me. I'm going to start hearing from them a lot."
Mays has not set up any officials yet. He has yet to take any unofficials either, but is considering trips to Memphis, Middle Tennessee, Tennessee and Vanderbilt, he said.
Mays thinks more interest will come when he returns to the field.
"It's a guarantee," he said. "I just need to go out and play. Nobody plays the game like I do. To me, I'm one of the best tackles in the state."

We had some questions for Bienal, a creative studio based in Yucatán, Mexico that was founded in 2006. Check out what they had to say below.
How does the design culture in Yucatán compare to other parts of Mexico?
Design in Yucatán is a mixture; a cultural blend of many ideas and concepts of Mayan origins, European influence and a pinch of Caribbean. We have 'sisters cities' such as La Havana in Cuba and New Orleans in The United States. Our gastronomy, architecture and traditions have made us very independent with a very strong differentiation, we are like a country inside a country. We believe that by simply being aware of our roots we have been able to grow creatively and have been able to do different things in design.
What is the thinking behind the colour palette of Petén Seaside Community?
Our first objective is to create brands with such a profound experience that the consumer can immerse in a different world from the first contact. Petén Seaside Community is a project where we needed to convey this experience from afar, as it is very likely that the buyer has never visited Yucatán, so this goal became twice as important. We rely on colours and textures to present in the flora and fauna of Sisal, a mythical port in our state. Helping the consumer recreate an image of the environment; gold representing the sun's reflection on the sea, orange as the flamboyant tree flowers, blue as the colour of the ocean, green for the mangrove, last but not least the texture of craft paper to convey the feeling of the sand on your feet. It is like taking a lifestyle sample on print.
"It is like taking a lifestyle sample on print."
How did you craft the branding to reference Mayan culture?
Sisal is a reboot, a place to find oneself. The brand is based on our roots, in the legacy, but not only on the Maya's legacy, but also the legacy from other cultures. For example, as inspiration for the personality is Ernest Hemingway, his adventurous and passionate spirit; he always looked for a connection to the communities he visited. Conveying key elements in the history and culture of Sisal using a graphic style that can be reproduced in a simple way by creating drawings on the sand.
Each of the symbols is linked to a key concept in Petén Seaside Community. The sun, the magical nature of Sisal, 'where everything is possible', its shores witness both dawn and dusk, the water. The community develops in an ecosystem surrounded by water with 3 main sources: the sea, lakes and marsh. Historically, Henequen left a legacy in Sisal because it was the main port of Yucatán in the 16th century, where all the Henequen got shipped out, and where the moon was a purifying element of spirit for the Mayan people; invites us to be reborn and free from the things that you no longer need. When we change, the world changes.
Which of your projects do you feel has made the biggest impact?
The first project that helped define Bienal in a radical way was the branding for El Gran Museo Maya. It was the beginning of a structure that generated brands that then would turn in to awards, media coverage and an overall impact. Rice Now is another brand, making a very strong impact outside Yucatán, opening doors nationally with clients that had very different and interesting projects like Pico de Gallo, taking us into international projects, collaborations and engagements with interior decoration design and signage. All of these projects along with many more have helped us a lot and made us learn more about our work.
Estudio Marte, Dilo Bonito, WorkCenterMéxico are some other examples of projects that have had a very good impact on digital media and the design world. Malahat is one of our dearest because it helped us develop the base and the concept from the very deep; therefore our projects come very well defined from the beginning, it has also been an excellent reference of our work as a project that has been chosen in prizes, books and others.
"Emoción is a short film we made as an experiment, we are planning on showing it at 2017 film festivals."
Why did you decide to style the Volkswagen in 3D form instead of vector for the Emoción identity?
Emoción is a short film we made as an experiment, we are planning on showing it at 2017 film festivals, we did this project to prove ourselves and to have fun. We think that the making of a film is very similar to the making of branding as you have a lot of professional people, experts in different areas and responsibilities. These people are very well linked in their different ways but in the same path that leads to the same goal.
The Volkswagen 'Safari' as it is known in Mexico, is the third protagonist of the film, and as we have always liked different materials and organic elements in design, we had a hard time getting a replica on internet but we made it and it is what we use as the brandmark of the branding, like a live action introduction.
Combining the materials and organic elements in the digital area, giving it a greater depth, texture and certain qualities that we like when creating.
Who are your favourite studios and designers from around the world?
They are not studios, but we get motivated by schools, art groups and manifestos that generated really significant changes and that were not only temporary designs. One of our most important references is the Bauhaus as well as the DADA, from their manifesto to their work and actions. The Factory is also on the top-of-mind, as it is a container of artists and creatives interacting and creating with a lot of passion and madness.
The Estudio Marte branding combines a lot of different elements that probably shouldn't work with each other. What brings it all together to make it such a neatly crafted identity?
Estudio Marte is a brand that combines a lot of elements that are not likely to work together. Nevertheless they are carefully placed, as if they were hand picked and placed specifically.
Marte is a unique and special identity because it is actually a person. The brand´s DNA is the studio's founder, a person with a very eclectic, lively and versatile personality. Her life is an eternal combination of contradictory elements, which probably should not be together but her attitude and charm make them work perfectly. We believe it's the same with the brand, it goes beyond the graphics. It has a soul, movement and owns a personality that just works.
Can you explain the typeface choice for Buyán Apartments and the decision to use the subtle letter spacing in the wordmark?
Buyán is a place for people with an intellectual, development oriented and a dissemination of culture lifestyle, which seeks innovation based on traditional knowledge; concepts that influenced a lot when choosing Grandee CP as the main typography. The intention was to create Buyán Apartments as the perfect neighborhood, where a homogeneous community with similar tastes are tenants and can interact and coexist without compromising their privacy and individuality. The space between the letters reflects that, despite the encouragement of using common areas with artwork, each department is a separate and private space, a sacred island.

And this is how a typical Tamil barbershop looks like.
I had a hair-cut in Madurai but that was rather a nasty experience. They asked me for a head massage and I thought, why not. So they did the massage with plenty of oil in my hair, and I expected that they would wash it out afterwards. No they couldn't as they didn't had any running water, in the middle of Madurai. I had to run first all the way to my hotel to wash it out.
So I didn't take a photo from a barbershop in Madurai, only in Mamallapuram, the real professionals, and a must to go over there.

Discussion in 'Typhoon H Discussion' started by fastdove, Aug 18, 2016.
Is Yuneec selling the RealSense upgrade for current Typhoon H owners? Easy to install?
Its coming very soon I believe. Looks like a very easy DIY install.
I saw a post on here yesterday that said its coming in September so yes not long to wait.
In the UK , we are still waiting for the pro.
I'm still waiting for any retailer to say in stock and not pre order , late August / September .
Wheelspins website was updated the other day with an expect delivery date of the 18th which is today,but still nothing yet.
EXPECTED , Don't hold your breath on that one.
The 2 shops I'm looking at are still pre order , we expect same time in :
You need to remember, Typhoon H pro's get all RealSense units first. Meaning even if they do come out with a RealSense Kit there be in very very low amounts for a few months. Even Yuneec confirms when you call them that the RealSense units are in short supply even for the Typhoon H pro. I hope their wrong, but Yuneec track record is not good for shipping things on time
I just got a confirmation that my TH with real sense unit shipped out and I will have it this Friday. In western Canada.. I would guess that those means this are staring to fill orders and will have extra for upgrades soon. Maybe sept sounds possible. I base that on Canada always gets stuff last...
Waiting patiently! Cheers guys!
You know it's funny we buy the Typhoon H we can do up to 60 miles an hour now we're going to put real sense on it which will slow it down to 10 to 12 miles an hour funny
Why the new one loose some speed ?
I am not interested in getting realsense, but I would like to get the IPS module to help with maintaining height. Has anyone heard when that we become available. Also, can you mount that without getting the realsense camera?
yes IPS can be mount without realsense
and availability end off the month in UK (ca 70gbp)
Anyone know when and how much in the US?

EXCLUSIVE: Swansea add Jurgen Klinsmann to managerial shortlist
The 60-year-old Italian is under pressure with Swansea having picked up just one point since their opening day win at Burnley.
Their American owners, Steve Kaplan and Jason Levien, who took control in July, are flying in to watch tomorrow's home game with in-form Liverpool and another defeat could spell the end for Guidolin.
"Yes, I am worried I could be sacked if we lose," said Guidolin yesterday.

I am a 34 year old mother of 3 girls. I have suffered from severe depression for over a year now. I just the reasons for my depression are clear, it's just getting things back to normal again. See, my daughter was taken by her biological father on Dec. 15, 2010. And ever since then it's been hell. I have been fighting a unjust court system that has illegally removed my daughter and has litterally destroyed my life as I knew it to be. My 15 year old daughter is still at home, and she and my husband are growing very tired of the constant mood swings, crying spells, sleepless nights/days, and the sleepy days, I have on occassion. I don't know what to do, I don't have the ability to do what I was trained to do (medical field) because of the constant panic attacks I have, and it even affects my ability to drive. My situation, I have hid from the world as I know it, but now, I am tired of trying to make everything okay for everyone else. I suppose the constant thought that my family would be better off without me here and the thoughts of strangling someone that has ruined my life classifies me as having severe depression.
I am tired of being angry, and I am tired of trying to be okay through all this. I am lost.

Indian corporates to vie for Oscars in branding
With the announcement of Business Superbrands 2005, the race is on among top Indian corporates to vie for these awards - best known as Branding Oscars. Business Superbrands will identify and felicitate the strongest corporate brands in the country. Considered to be the Oscars in Branding, the Superbrand status is highly sought after amongst the corporates across all 39 countries, where Superbrands operates in. The number of business categories for scoring in India is fixed at 101, and the number of brands under them is approximately 750.
Launched in 1994, initially as a radio programme, Superbrands is a concept developed by the UK-based Marketing Guru Marcel Knobil, who is also the founder of Superbrands Organisation and the former chairman of the Superbrands Council, UK. The organisation was established to promote excellence in branding and the discipline of branding as well. It has been tracking the branding phenomenon for the past 10 years and maintains councils in 39 different countries. Some of these locations are: Australia, France, Germany, Holland, Hong Kong, Italy, Malaysia, Philippines, USA, Singapore, Spain, UAE, Indonesia, Ireland, Egypt, Denmark and India - each of which regularly host events to pay tribute to the year's best-performing brands. It is an independent authority and arbiter of branding. It promotes the discipline of branding and pays accolade to exceptional brands.
A galaxy of corporate luminaries forms part of the newly constituted Business Superbrands Council. The council would judge the competing companies. The list of Indian corporate biggies includes Anmol Dar, Chairman of the Council, Mukesh Ambani, Chairman and Managing Director, Reliance Industries, Gurcharan Das, former CEO, Procter & Gamble, R Gopalakrishnan, Executive Director, Tata Sons, Naina Kidwai, Deputy Chief Executive Officer, HSBC, KN Memani, former Chairman, Ernst & Young; Sunil Bharti Mittal, Chairman and Group Managing Director, Bharti Enterprises, Nandan Nilekani, CEO, President and Managing Director, Infosys Technologies, Deepak Parekh, Chairman, HDFC, MS Ramachandran, Chairman, Indian Oil Corporation and Subir Raha, Chairman and Managing Director, ONGC.

Mexico has cards to play in NAFTA 2.0
With help from Doug Palmer, Adam Behsudi and Catherine Boudreau
MEXICO HAS CARDS TO PLAY IN NAFTA 2.0: The meeting at the White House between President Donald Trump and Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau on Monday may have featured few fireworks and a couple of chummy exchanges, but there's a third member of NAFTA who is promising to make any renegotiation of that deal more of a bear: Mexico.
Story Continued Below
Trump's pledge to reopen the decades-old agreement has set the stage for Mexican President Enrique Pena Nieto to bring his own set of cards to the negotiating table. Having campaigned heavily on a promise to improve trade deals and bring jobs back from Mexico and elsewhere, Trump has a great deal of political capital invested in showing voters that he's taking quick steps toward doing so, even as his administration has yet to specify what exactly it would like to see changed in NAFTA.
Rather than bend to Trump's will, then, Pena Nieto has some leverage — and the domestic political support — to use the long-promised talks as an opportunity to demand better treatment on controversial issues like the border wall, to threaten an end to cooperation on cross-border exchanges like immigration and drug trafficking, and even to prove that Mexico has other trading partners to fall back on if NAFTA ultimately does fall apart.
And given Trump's intense, almost singular focus on Mexico and its trade deficit with the United States as the reason a NAFTA rewrite is needed, Mexican officials are looking to use the long-promised meeting not as a time to talk solely trade but rather to rework the two neighbors' entire bilateral relationship.
"That was probably the government of Mexico's first clear, smart strategy in terms of negotiating," Juan Carlos Hartasanchez, a former adviser to Mexico's finance ministry, told Morning Trade. "What they said is, 'Look, if you want to get into this, you need to be aware that we're not only going to discuss trade, we're not only going to discuss NAFTA. We're going to review everything, so you better be prepared to review all of these items if you want to make significant changes to NAFTA.'" Read the full story from yours truly here.
IT'S TUESDAY, FEB. 14! Welcome to Morning Trade, where we're going to hold back on any number of bad trade-related Valentine's Day jokes right now simply to say that CNN's Jake Tapper may have had the best #TradeValentine of them all yesterday. What else is going on in the trade world? Let me know what you're hearing and talking about: firstname.lastname@example.com or @mmcassella.
ARE TRUMP AND TRUDEAU NAFTA BESTIES NOW? That's the way it seemed to many Canadian observers on Monday after Trump made clear that Mexico is the principal target of his push to renegotiate NAFTA. "I had to pick my jaw up off the floor," said Carlo Dade, director of the Centre for Trade & Investment Policy at the Canada West Foundation, expressing his surprise and pleasure at how well Trudeau's visit appears to have gone. "The results were outstanding."
Still, if you are "Mexico, you've got real reason to worry," Dade added, referring to Trump's comment that U.S. trade problems with its southern neighbor are much more severe.
One possible outcome of Monday's meeting could be that the United States will pursue separate deals with Canada and Mexico, rather than gather all three countries together for trilateral talks, said Christopher Sands, director of the Center for Canadian Studies at Johns Hopkins University's Paul H. Nitze School of Advanced International Studies. "NAFTA may become two, parallel bilateral agreements, plus a Canada-Mexico bilateral," Sands said. To read Doug Palmer's story, click here.
RYAN: YES, WE TALKED ABOUT DAIRY: House Speaker Paul Ryan made clear that he took time to raise concerns about access to Canada's dairy market in his Monday meeting with Trudeau, as well as the bigger strategic picture. "We had a productive discussion focused on ways to deepen ties between the U.S. and Canada with respect to trade and national security," Ryan said. "This means reaffirming our commitment to NATO and increasing economic cooperation to make our nations more prosperous and secure. I also re-emphasized the importance of breaking down trade barriers and improving market access for America's dairy farmers. We look forward to continue strengthening the U.S.-Canada relationship."
U.S. dairy groups had urged Trump to also raise market access concerns in his meeting with Trudeau, but there was no specific reference to the matter in a joint statement the two leaders issued. It also did not come up in the joint press conference, although Trump said the United States wants to make some tweaks to the Canadian portion of NAFTA.
HATCH REQUESTS AUDIENCE WITH NAVARRO, GREENBLATT: Senators want some answers on Trump's trade agenda even though the top two trade appointees remain in waiting. Senate Finance Committee Chairman Orrin Hatch will summon Peter Navarro, chairman of the newly created White House National Trade Council, and Jason Greenblatt, Trump's special representative for international negotiations, for an hourlong meeting, according to an internal advisory obtained by POLITICO.
"With this meeting, members of the Senate Finance Committee will have an opportunity to discuss trade priorities with administration officials and examine ways the legislative branch can work with the executive branch to advance a strong trade agenda that will help grow the economy and expand job opportunities for more Americans," Hatch spokeswoman Julia Lawless confirmed in a statement.
The panel is still vetting Robert Lighthizer, Trump's pick for U.S. trade representative, and has yet to announce a date for a confirmation hearing. Wilbur Ross, Trump's nominee for Commerce secretary, awaits a full Senate vote.
HATCH HAS 'REAL QUESTIONS' ON TAX PLAN WITH BORDER ADJUSTMENT: Hatch said he has some "real questions" on a House GOP tax reform proposal that includes a border adjustment plan that would tax imports but exempt exports.
"The real question is can we do this properly without increasing taxes, increasing expenses, increasing costs on American citizens, and I think that's one question that's got to be answered," he said in an interview with Bloomberg.
On the border adjustment tax proposal: "Some companies love the idea. Other companies don't because it will be very detrimental to their bottom line. To some companies it might help their bottom line," he said. "You're going to have differing perspectives on something that significant no matter what you do."
CANADA READY TO MAKE THE CASE FOR TRADE IN CHILE: Canada, Mexico, Peru and Colombia have all confirmed their attendance at the "High-Level Dialogue on the Asia-Pacific Region" that Chile is set to host March 14-15. Still no word from the U.S. on whether Washington will be represented at the meeting, a Chilean government official said, adding that invitations were sent to the State Department and Office of the U.S. Trade Representative.
Canada's focus at the meeting "will be on making the proactive case for progressive trade throughout Asia, north and south, in a way that works first and foremost for the middle class," said a spokeswoman for Canadian Trade Minister Francois-Philippe Champagne.
"That is what we will be doing there and indeed our approach throughout the world, making the case for strong progressive trade that makes sense for Canadians," she added.
More on the meeting: The big event could be broken up into smaller subsets of meetings of countries with differing interests. Countries interested in seeing TPP move forward in some iteration could meet, while other nations with a view toward different configurations including the U.S. could have their own meeting, a source briefed on the plans said.
MNUCHIN CONFIRMED; ROSS IN THE QUEUE: The Senate confirmed Steven Mnuchin as Treasury secretary in a 53-47 vote Monday, filling a crucial gap in Trump's economic team. Sen. Joe Manchin was the only Democrat to vote for Mnuchin. In his new position, Mnuchin — a onetime hedge fund CEO, banker and Hollywood producer — will shape policies on taxes, financial regulation and the economy.
He also should be a strong voice in deciding whether to declare China a currency manipulator, something Trump vowed during the campaign that he would direct his Treasury secretary to do on the first day of his presidency. Trump hasn't given that order yet, but then again Mnuchin has not been in office to carry it out.
Meanwhile, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell has filed cloture to limit debate to 30 hours each on six other Trump nominees. Commerce nominee Ross is third in line, raising the possibility that a vote on his nomination may not occur until after next week's Presidents Day recess.
BLAST FROM THE PAST: FROMAN ON TPP: The meeting in Chile will also serve as an "important step" regarding the future of the Trans-Pacific Partnership and whether remaining TPP countries will be able to move on without the United States, former U.S. Trade Representative Michael Froman said Monday. And while the Trump administration has "made clear its intentions" regarding the Pacific Rim pact, the man who spent years negotiating and garnering support for the deal said he thinks elements of it will wind up in other agreements, including a renegotiated NAFTA and any bilateral deals with individual members like Japan.
Asked about other elements of the new administration's trade agenda, Froman issued a stern rebuke of various proposals to impose punitive tariffs against other countries "in violation of international obligations." Doing so would invite other countries to retaliate against the United States, by imposing their own tariffs, or to imitate the United States, by flaunting their own international trade obligations, he added. A tariff would also serve as a tax on U.S. consumers that would disproportionately affect lower-income Americans, he said.
"There are a lot of second- and third-order implications of some of the proposed ideas that are out there," Froman said in an interview on Bloomberg TV. "I think we all have to be hopeful that people think through those … before going down that path."
CHAMBER: U.S. SHOULD DEEPEN ECONOMIC TIES WITH ISRAEL: Ahead of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's visit to Washington this week – he's slated to meet with Trump Wednesday – the U.S. Chamber of Commerce is pushing the administration to revisit and improve the United States' economic relationship with Israel.
A high-level economic dialogue focused on addressing economic, trade and competitive issues could help both nations forge a deeper partnership, "broaden the scope of consultations and could help drive greater accountability among both governments," Josh Kram, senior director for Middle East Affairs at the Chamber, wrote in an op-ed published in the New York Observer.
Such a partnership could also help Trump fulfill his pledge of providing more manufacturing jobs by allowing the U.S. to take advantage of Israeli innovations in industrial technologies as well as so-called smart infrastructure, which brings computing power to roads and bridges in an attempt to make it more responsive and resilient, Kram wrote.
While the United States and Israel have had a free-trade agreement since 1985 — which Kram says is the reason why both countries are "global pacesetters in high-impact commerce and innovation" — the White House has also said it will review all existing trade deals and look for ways to improve them.
AIA TOUTS BIG AEROSPACE AND DEFENSE TRADE SURPLUS: The U.S. aerospace and defense trade surplus soared to $90 billion in 2016, the largest of any industry, the Aerospace Industries Association said Monday. Exports hit a record $146 billion, an increase of 52 percent over the past five years. The group also took the opportunity to urge the Trump administration and Congress to get the U.S. Export-Import Bank back in operation by approving new board members. The bank is unable to approve transactions worth more than $10 million because it lacks a quorum. "While aerospace and defense trade is winning for America, contributing positively to our trade balance and creating high-skill high-paying jobs, competitors are growing their share of the global market far faster," AIA said.
MEXICAN SENATOR TARGETS U.S. CORN FOR RETALIATION: Speaking of cards that Mexico has to play in the NAFTA debate, Mexican officials are already countering hits from Trump. One of the country's senators, Armando Rios Piter, introduced a bill Monday that would force Mexico to start buying corn from Argentina and Brazil rather than the United States. Rios Piter told CNN that it's a good way to send a message that "this hostile relationship has consequences" and he "hope[s] that it changes."
It's another sign that Mexico intends to take action should Trump carry out any of his trade threats, such as imposing a 20 percent tax on imports from countries with which the United States has a trade deficit -- also a potential option for financing construction of a wall along the southern border -- or pulling out of NAFTA unless Mexico and Canada meet his yet-to-be-defined demands that he says will protect American workers. Ildefonso Guajardo, Mexico's economy minister, said in January that the country would respond "immediately" to new tariffs enforced by the Trump administration.
Mexico is the United States' second-largest customer for corn, behind Japan. About $2.4 billion worth of corn was sent across the border in 2015, more than six times the amount that was traded before NAFTA was signed over 20 years ago.

The Alpine 3802 switch supports a variety of network interfaces providing a convenient and powerful switch for convergence of legacy telco network protocols with high performance Ethernet, the ubiquitous technology of LANs. With a more compact form factor, the 3802 delivers all of the performance required for business applications along with direct support for WAN access.
The Alpine 3802 makes remote configuration and management effortless by acting as a protocol-savvy router, protocol-independent bridge, application-aware switch, Web cache redirector, server load-balancer, and traffic and bandwidth manager. For enterprise customers, this results in a higher performance and a more reliable application service; for service providers, end-to-end Ethernet improves their ability to carry traffic while lowering operating costs.
The key to network simplicity at the edge is integrating enterprise and service provider networks. The Alpine 3802 ties the two networks together with an Ethernet protocol that is built to support advanced communication applications, said Dan Riordan, vice president of segment marketing for Extreme Networks. For CIOs, IT managers and networking professionals, Ethernet provides a consistent platform from the business to the home, and every access point in between, where size and price are top of mind concerns.
The Alpine 3802 switch will be available in Dec. 2001.
Alpine 3802 in the Enterprise
With the introduction of the Alpine 3802, the Alpine switching series offers Enterprise users a complete solution for high-performance networking. The Alpine 3808, introduced in early 2000, is designed for headquarters use; the Alpine 3804, also available since early 2000, is suited for the wiring closet. The new Alpine 3802 is ideal for branch office WAN and Internet access, as T1/E1 or T3 modules provide local Internet access for enterprise WAN access.
Alpine 3802 for Service Providers
Ø CPE access to Metro Area Network: T1/E1, T3 or Gigabit Ethernet backhaul provides path to Metro point-of-presence; 10/100 or Gigabit Ethernet relay to enterprise LAN
Ø Broadband access for Multi Tenant offices: Ideal footprint for building basement deployment to serve aggregate tenants; T1/E1, T3 or Gigabit Ethernet access over copper for fiber; VDSL modules for in-building voice wiring; 10/100 TX of FX for access over installed CAT-5 or fiber
Ø Broadband access for Fiber to the Home (FTTH): Platform tailored for curbside cabinets to serve aggregate homes; Gigabit Ethernet/WDMi for WAN access to point-of-presence or video head-end; 10/100 FX for access to residential environments
About the Alpine Switch Family
Ethernet Service Provisioning chassis switches are ideally suited for delivering broadband IP services to metropolitan area networks (MANs), service provider data centers, multi-tenant buildings and enterprise wiring closets. The Alpine platform provides total Ethernet coverage with support for both standard Category 5 and fiber optic media as well as first mile technologies that extend the reach of Ethernet over VDSL and legacy WAN technologies.
Alpine switches use an interchangeable set of power supplies, switch modules and management modules. Each switch has its own hot-swappable fan tray, which installs vertically into the front of the chassis. The Alpine 3808 has nine slots, the Alpine 3804 has five slots, and the Alpine 3802 has two slots. Optionally, fully redundant power supplies fit into the front of the Alpine 3808 and into the rear of the Alpine 3804. The first slot of both chassis is used for the Switch Management Module (SMMi), which performs all management functions, manages the switch forwarding database and routing tables, and processes all route protocol updates. The remaining eight, four slots and one slot of the Alpine 3808, 3804 and 3802 are used for switch modules.

Today is August the second. It's my birthday. The first signers of the Declaration of Independence put pen to parchment on this day. The first subway opened on this day. Adolf Hilter became Fuhrer on this day. Myrna Loy, Shimon Peres, James Baldwin, Peter O'Toole, and some guy who recited pi to forty-two thousand decimal places from memory were born on this day; Wild Bill Hickok, Enrico Caruso, Fritz Lang, and William S. Burroughs died. Wild Bill was killed while playing poker, which is kind of the way I'd like to go. On this day in 1980, I was born, in Emmaus, Pennsylvania. I'm sixty-one. And absolutely nothing of note has happened on that day since, except Burroughs dying. I take this as an omen that it's my day. This morning, in Boston, someone set off a series of bombs triggered by communications from a certain server. If you were getting a ping from that server while you were within sniffing distance of one of those bombs, you set it off. Terrorism-wise, that's good shit. I think it's been a while since we had a good old terrorist attack in LA, hasn't it? I mean, you can't count every random asshole with a racial grudge walking into a McDonald's and only shooting the blacks or the Iranians or the Salvadorans or the Jews. I mean something that makes the rest of us walk around a little scared because it's so random yet so purposeful—by which I mean that it's purposeful but the logic underlying the purpose is inscrutable to rational people—that it makes the entire universe seem a little less stable. We haven't had one of those lately. But I tell you what, if that Boston thing happened here, it might do the trick.

The Yankees great and former presidential candidate Jeb Bush have teamed up to bid for the Miami Marlins, the Miami Herald reported Wednesday.
Jeter has expressed interest in owning an Major League Baseball team for years - and has even gotten the blessing of the Steinbrenner family.
Jeter and Bush have not commented. They are competing against a NY financier named Wayne Rothbaum, manager of Quogue Capital, a source close to the situation told the Herald. Loria is asking $1.6 billion for the team, but a source familiar with the bidding process said he believes the highest suitor likely will end up paying about $1 billion.
Marlins Owner Jeffrey Loria is fielding offers for the team. In its most recent valuation in 2016, Forbes estimated the franchise is now worth $675 million.
"The ultimate goal is on the ownership side, but not right now", Jeter, 42, said in November.
In his playing career, Jeter made $265 million with the Yankees, second only to Alex Rodriguez ($399 million) in career earnings. No slouch in the political arena himself, Jeb recently ran (unsuccessfully) for president but is perhaps more well known in Floridian parts for his stint as the governor from 1999 to 2007. His family has strong ties to baseball too. His brother, George W. Bush owned the Rangers before becoming US president.
While the public may wind up supporting Jeter and Bush, rooting for them to win in Florida hasn't always gone as expected.

Industry/Regulatory/Political Issues
- Licensing for new U.S. reactors is proceeding according to schedule, the Nuclear Regulatory Commission said in letters to electric utilities in Georgia and South Carolina. The agency expects to issue a final safety report this month on Georgia Power's two advanced reactors to be built at the Vogtle plant in Burke County, Ga. It could approve a construction and operating license before the end of this year. The NRC told South Carolina Electric & Gas that the utility's application to build two reactors near Jenkinsville, S.C., is complete and that a final safety review should be finished by September. The agency then could approve a construction and operating license for the facility by January. Read More »

Nine Ohio State pledges will head to The Opening, which is one more than a year ago.
With the most representatives of any school in the nation heading to the nationally televised, star-studded event, quarterback Stephen Collier (Leesburg, Ga./Lee County), running back Parris Campbell Jr. (Akron, Ohio/St. Vincent-St. Mary), outside linebackers Dante Booker (Akron, Ohio/St. Vincent-St. Mary) and Kyle Berger (Cleveland/St. Ignatius), offensive tackle Kyle Trout (Lancaster, Ohio/Lancaster), defensive ends Dylan Thompson (Lombard, Ill./Montini Catholic) and Jalyn Holmes (Norfolk, Va./Lake Taylor), wide receiver Terry McLaurin (Indianapolis/Cathedral) and cornerback Damon Webb (Detroit/Cass Tech) know what they're in for.
All nine are going there with a chip and a chirp.
<1. The chip is to prove they're underrated.
OSU has the most commits at The Opening of any school by far, but that doesn't mean it has a ton of highly ranked commits. In fact, only four of its commits are in the ESPN 300, and only one (Webb), is among the top 150. Excellent showings here could provide a rankings boost for any of them. "By competing, we're showing how good we are," Berger said. "Being able to meet up with the top 150 kids, it's the perfect time."
2. The chirp is to get in the ear of some of the top campers in the nation.
All nine have been active in recruiting for the Buckeyes. Webb's family even has a website, Bucks2014.com, detailing news, notes and commitments for Ohio State. They all see The Opening as an opportunity to spread the word. "Kids like to make decisions in the summer," Berger said. "This is a great time to put the Buckeyes in their ear."
3. Stout Trout.
Trout is one of those guys outside the 300 with a chance to break in if he can hold up against top competition, some of which he got a chance to see up close and personal at the Columbus NFTC. "I'm trying to seek out the best competition and beat them," Trout said. "I went to the Nike Training Camp expecting to see Da'Shawn Hand. I wanted to see him and I wanted to go against him. When they said, 'Do you want to play right tackle?' I said, " 'Heck yeah, I want to play right tackle.' I'm a left tackle, but I don't care. I can change my feet, I'm athletic. It's a little weird, but I wanted to prove to people I can go with the No. 1 defensive end in the nation, which is exactly what I did. … He beat me, I beat him, and we stalemated. I want to go at him again. Not in a mean way, we're cool, but I want to go against the best talent in the nation."
4. Webb of intrigue.
Webb, the nation's No. 8 corner and easily OSU's top-ranked commit at this time at No. 57 overall, has turned heads at every camp he's gone to and received his invite in Columbus, just like five of the other Ohio State commitments headed to Oregon. His words weren't measured when he was asked what he wanted out of this trip. "I'm looking to go out there and compete against the top competition," Webb said. "I want to prove I'm the best corner in the nation."
5. Strength in numbers
Nine commits at an event could be a significant advantage for Ohio State. We know they will be recruiting top targets the Buckeyes have already identified, but can they sway a player or two who already are committed elsewhere? The group mentality is a powerful one, and maybe a player not really considered a possible get will fall into lockstep with the big group representing the scarlet and gray. It's really not a farfetched scenario.

Jamate Islami concerned over Dr A'fia's expected sentence.
LAHORE, Jan. 10: The Jamaat e Islami chief Syed Munawar Hasan has expressed deep concern over the reports that a US court was going to sentence Dr. A'fia Siddiqui 120 years jail and has warned of a countrywide agitation on that.
In a press statement here Sunday, he said, Dr A'fia was being sentenced only for being a Muslim and the Pakistan government had failed to do its duty in her defense.
He also appealed the nation to come of roads for the defense of a Pakistani daughter and protest over the rulers shameful attitude in her case.
The Pakistani rulers, he said, were busy in appeasing the US and obeying orders of third rate US officials but they had not taken Dr A'fias issue seriously, while the Pakistani envoy in the US did not give due attention to the matter.
He said, Dr A'fia's trial before the US court was only a farce and the Americans had made it a means to disgrace a Muslim lady.
Dr A'fia, he said, did not contest her case because the charges against her had been cooked up and the entire court proceedings were false.
He said that dozens of Black Water and US officials were roaming about in Pakistan with arms unchecked and on being hauled up, were being released on a phone call whereas the Pakistan government had been unable to get a respectable Pakistani lady released from the US clutches.
He also condemned the silence of the NGO's and Human Rights activists in the country for their criminal silence on Dr A'fia's issue and said these were concerned only with the rights of Qadianis and other non Muslims and not about the rights of a Muslim lady.

Achieve With Accountability
Accountability is the Catalyst to: Accelerated Change, Robust Employee Engagement, Intensified Ownership, Relentless Perseverance, Impeccable Alignment, and propels individuals, teams and organizations to intoxicating heights of achievement and success.
With the world coming at us fast and furious every day, it's easy to feel like you've lost control of your own life, your team or your organization. By choosing to take and lead accountability you reclaim control and are able to direct your own destiny.
Accelerating Change
Leading Change – igniting engagement, passion, ownership and creativity that is often lacking during times of change, can be accomplished using key memorable and pragmatic principles. Learn why some organizations achieve and exceed desired results.
Nearly 75% of large-scale change efforts fail, or produce mediocre results. By implementing proven change principles that have allowed teams and organizations around the globe to accelerate and sustain desired change, you can gain a competitive advantage.
Cultivate Your Optimal Culture
Your culture is your 'brand.' The experiences your culture creates will either reinforce that current 'brand' or evoke a new one. You can either lead your culture, or it will lead you.
An organization's (or team's) culture is either an engine propelling it toward it's desired results, or an anchor impeding and hindering it's progress. Culture, simply put, is the convergence of the way your employees think and act. That culture is producing your organization's every result. If your future desired results are loftier, more difficult, of just different than those you are achieving today, will your current culture be able to deliver?
Execute Flawlessly
Executing any strategy that requires change in human behavior may be the most difficult challenge a leader will ever face. Two out of three crucial strategies fail to produce desired outcomes. How many of your most crucial strategies over the past three years achieved and sustained rousing success? How many slowly suffocated over time?
Deciding upon new strategies and direction is challenging. Getting employees at every level to think, act and behave in a manner that assures the strategy is a success is even more difficult. Applying these principles of flawless execution will enhance your likelihood of success.
Unleash Leadership Capacity at all Levels
Discover the practices demonstrated by exemplary leaders that result in others voluntarily choosing to follow them. Leadership is a choice and can be learned, nurtured, and refined – by employees at all levels.
Discover memorable principles that can be put into practice immediately. Whatever the desired results you wish to achieve or challenges within your organization – employee engagement, culture change, breaking down silos, improving collaboration, raising employee morale, merging cultures, doing more with less – it is through your people that you will either succeed or fail. The manner in which your people behave is a reflection of leadership.
Capitalizing on Ideas, Talent & Leadership
In these tremendously ultra-competitive and turbulent times, how do we effectively tap into the enormous wealth of creativity, innovation, passion, energy and commitment of employees that is often left idle? How do we cultivate an environment where employees at all levels are engaged, energized and flourish?
Great service and quality are simply the price of entry. Learn concise, uncomplicated and easily implemented principles and concepts to engage, enlist and motivate employees at all levels to be all they can be. Engender a culture where employees at all levels define their 'job' as achieving desired results and not simply what is in their 'job description.'

The announcement isn't set to occur until late Thursday or Friday, but Charlotte (N.C.) West Charlotte cornerback Rod Council has committed to Virginia Tech.
Three sources close to the situation have confirmed that Council, a 5-foot-11, 175-pounder, has committed to Virginia Tech over Virginia. The three-star cornerback also visited Michigan and Notre Dame, but was apparently blow away by his official visit to Blacksburg from Dec. 11-12.
Council is ranked as the No. 19 cornerback in the country by Rivals.com. He had 10 interceptions this season to push his career total to 26. He is currently at Shrine Bowl practice and expected to announce there within the next few days.
