Collections of Wynnea from China, India, and Japan were examined. The distinctions between W. gigantea and W. macrotis and between W. americana and W. macrotis are outlined. The taxonomic positions of two unnamed species are discussed. Wynnea macrospora seems common in Asia, while all reports of W. americana from Asia are misidentifications. Five species are currently found in Asia. A key to the known species of the genus is provided.

When Too Many Students Fail, Lower The Standards
December 2, 1999
Many school districts around the country have abandoned the policy of social promotion, replacing it with educational standards which students must meet in order to proceed to the next higher grade. But for all their good intentions, school officials are finding the policy unworkable because vast numbers of students simply cannot make the grade.
Every state which has instituted tests to end social promotion has faced the prospect of having large numbers fail. The latest district to wrestle with the problem is the Los Angeles Unified School District -- the nation's second largest.
- Last year, the California legislature passed a law calling for student promotion based on meeting basic academic standards and gave school districts several years to implement the new standards.
- The Los Angeles district adopted a program about 10 months ago to apply the standards to five grades -- the second through the fifth and the eighth -- after this school year.
- But now it is considering applying them to just two of the grades -- perhaps the second and eighth -- because of overwhelming shortfalls in performance.
- Standardized test results showed that as many as half of the 711,000 students in Los Angeles public schools would fail if the new policy were put in place promptly.
More recently, teacher evaluations of students now suggest that perhaps 280,000 children -- or about 40 percent of the district -- would fail if just those evaluations were used rather than the tests.
One school board member commented that "we were going to hit the end of the school year with a disaster on our hands," adding that "the whole effort might have collapsed."

As today is Sunday and it is often a day of spending time with family, my new husband and making a *hopefully* yummy meal to enjoy over wine before the craziness of the week begins, I thought this fabulous engagement shoot by Anna and Spencer Photography is particularly suitable for those homebodies spending the end of the weekend with their loved ones as I plan to do.
You probably know by now that I love a good engagement shoot and what I love about today's feature is the totally relaxed way in which Peyton and Stan have been captured in the comfort of their home, doing what they love best. Cooking, goofing around and drinking wine. If you're planning your engagement shoot but don't really know where to start, why not take note from these guys and choose something you both love, be it baseball, museums, cooking or wine, and use this common interest to help inform your shoot, rather than coming up with a crazy theme that's just not you. Peyton and Stan based their fabulous engagement shoot around their appreciation and obsession with wine according to a few rules they have set…
So what are the 11 stges of Wine Geekdom you ask?
1. GENESIS: Have an epiphany wine that makes you want to get more serious about wine.
2. CONFUSION: Realize that there are so many bewildering choices that it is difficult to decide what to buy.
3. DISCIPLESHIP: Start following the ratings of a respected wine critic as a guide to what to buy.
4. COGNITIVE DISSONANCE: Do your best to tell yourself that you are actually enjoying all the highly rated wines you are drinking.
5. AWAKENING: Realize that taste in wine is subjective and you need to determine for yourself what you like.
6. RAGE: What the **** am I going to do with all this wine I bought that I don't actually like?
7. DINNER PARTIES: Unload the wine on friends at no-wine-geek dinner parties. They will be impressed as the wines are highly rated.
8. THE QUEST: Taste, taste, and taste some more to see what regions, producers and vintages you like.
9. ENLIGHTENMENT: OMFG! Burgundy!
10. DARK NIGHT OF THE SOUL: OMFG these things are expensive.
11. INNER PEACE: German Riesling! And cheap too!
Now go pour yourself a glass of red and enjoy these gorgeously genuine photos by Anna and Spencer Photography!

I did it! I made it to the (almost) end of day 5 of Toronto Fashion week and survived! By the end of the week I was truly exhausted, but I still excitedly made my way to the tents for the last of the shows. The day started out energetic and fun with the Lacerda show and ended with a stunning finale from Mikael D. But to me, everything in between just didn't blow my mind (besides Bustle, but I'm not recapping mens shows). I had planned to go to the Flare event later in the evening, after the Stephen Caras show that I had anticipated to be exceptional. I won't get into it, but it just felt so dated and way too overdone. I left after the show missing Mikael D and headed to the Flare event feeling overall disappointment from my last day at WMCFW. However, from the pictures I've seen from the Mikael D show, he ended the evening with a bang- full of exquisite, one-of-a-kind gowns!
Lacerda: There are so many things I have to say about the Lacerda show! From the sporty silhouettes, bright orange and blue prints to the music (chicken noodle soup with the soda on the side, anyone?) the show came together seamlessly. What I also loved was that after each model walked the runway, there would be a pedestal for them to stand on until the end of the show. This created a really cool juxtaposition between the fun easy-going clothes and music, and the tension of the models facing at each other on the podiums. The shoes were also such a cool addition, they were basically Birkenstocks hoped up on steroids. I don't know if I loved them or hated them- I just know the models were working them!
Mikael D: Since I did leave early to Attend the Flare World Runway Tour event, I Unfortunately had to miss what was clearly the best show of the day. Although I didn't get to see it live, the pictures look to me as the show was something from a fairy tail. The dresses were beautifully constructed with hand worked jewelled elements, sequins, tulle and sheer panels. I can only image these dresses to be shown on the most glamorous of red Carpets.

Hypertension Treatments
Lots of people commonly assume that hypertension is a problem that just grownups, 40 years of ages and also above, experience. However really, any individual could have hypertension, despite age, sex and also race. Various other way of living modifications that you ought to do as well as observe are consumptions of supplements, consuming alcohol in small amounts, giving up cigarette smoking, workout, great resting practices and also weight-loss. So, if you have hypertension or if you believe that you have, it is important that you do and also observe these healthy and balanced way of life adjustments as hypertension therapies for you.
Hypertension, which is the raised stress of the lower blood pressure fast in the arteries, commonly arise from 2 significant elements: the heart pumping blood with extreme pressure as well as the constricting of the body's smaller sized capillary that triggers blood circulation to apply even more stress versus the vessel's wall surfaces. Although your body could endure enhanced high blood pressure for months or even years, at some point the heart could expand, causing severe illness. That is why it is essential for your hypertension to be identified and also dealt with as early as feasible.
Way of living adjustments as well as drugs are consisted of in the checklist of hypertension therapies. Although there are medicine therapies as well as are verified to be essential, it is still unclear when these must be taken as well as begun. Still the more vital thing for you to do is to have healthy and balanced way of living adjustments to manage hypertension by reducing the consumption of healthy protein, salt as well as alcohol and also boosting potassium consumption.
The DASH diet regimen or Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension is stated to be exceptional for regulating hypertension. This diet plan consists of foods which contain potassium, calcium, magnesium as well as electrolytes as well as is abundant in vital nutrients and also fiber. As well as in order to decrease hypertension efficiently, you ought to integrate DASH with salt limitation. Salt constraint alone could give you with advantages, yet a mix of this 2 is finest.

A toxic political strategy is heading to Iowa, threatening to bamboozle voters and allow the 2012 election to turn on a lie. Democrats are making the obscenely false claim that they will "save Medicare as we've known it." Yesterday, Democrats used this deceptive strategy to take the special election in the 26th congressional district in western New York. Sadly, this corrupt strategy is likely to be repeated in states such as Iowa, where presidential candidates are vetted. Voters need to know the facts .
The truth is, the Obama health law, passed by Democrats last year, already eviscerated Medicare — though seniors won't feel the effects for some time. And the reform plan Democrats are attacking — Rep. Paul Ryan's vision — would undo much of the damage to Medicare while charting a new course to ensure the program doesn't run out of money.
The Obama health law cut future funding for Medicare by $575 billion over the next decade and used $410 billion of that money to expand eligibility for Medicaid. It's like robbing Peter to pay Paul, only it's robbing Grandma to benefit Medicaid recipients.
The nation needs to spend less on government programs, and entitlement reform is key. The best way to reform entitlements is not to start new ones. Don;t miss the point here. The Obama health law is redistributing the wealth — taking money out of Medicare to create new entitlements and millions more government dependents. Seniors are being forced to sacrifice to pay for this.
According to projections from the Obama administration's actuaries, Medicare will spend $14,731 per senior in 2019, instead of $16,162 if the health law had not passed. That's less care for seniors. Such cuts might be justifiable if the "savings" extended the financial life of Medicare. Mr. Obama and Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius frequently make that false claim. But in truth, the Obama health law raids Medicare, leaving less money to take care of the next generation of retirees.
So what can that next generation, retiring a decade from now, count on? The Obama health law puts those decision in the hands of an unelected board called the Independent Payment Advisory Board, a cost-cutting panel.
The board is a radical departure from Medicare as we've known it. Congress cedes nearly all control of Medicare spending on the rationale that budgeting decisions should be shielded from outraged seniors and political pressures. On April 13th, the president reiterated that the board would decide what care is "unnecessary" for seniors, and that he would like to see IPAB's unprecedented powers increased. Even the Congressional Budget Office cautioned that as the nation's debt crisis worsens, benefits will be put on the board's chopping block. IPAB is drawing fire from the AARP and Democratic Rep. Pete Stark (California).
Last week, President Obama indicated that he would like to reduce the deficit by taking an additional $200 billion from Medicare over the next decade. That would be IPAB's job too.
Ryan's plan, passed by the Republican majority in the House of Representatives was distorted into a scare machine to intimidate voters in the western New York race. The truth is, seniors would be safer under the Ryan plan than under Medicare Obama style. Beginning in 2022, the Ryan plan would give each new Medicare enrollee a choice of private health plans and a premium paid to the plan they choose. Ryan says the money would be there because his plan repeals the expansion of Medicaid and returns the funds raided from Medicare. Ryan also says seniors are safer choosing their own health plan rather than putting their care in the hands of the cost-cutting IPAB panel.
Let's hope voters examine the plain facts — because one thing is clear. Obama and the Democratic Party are not saving Medicare "as we know it."

Never before have we had so many channels of communication, including Twitter, video conferencing, face-to-face dialog, text, Facebook. The list is not only endless, it is growing. And never before have we had so many opportunities to be reinterpreted or misunderstood.

text: Keeping an eye to its future, the Port of Tacoma has started a new waterway-deepening project that will assure that the Pacific Northwest's largest container port will continue to attract the world's largest container ships. "We already serve Maersk Sealand's S-Type container vessels -- the world's largest," said Jack Fabulich, President of the Port of Tacoma Commission, adding that these Maersk container ships, at 380 yards (347-meters) long, are expected to be eclipsed by even larger ships in the near future. "We feel it is critical that the Port of Tacoma remain a step ahead of our competitors and be able to accommodate these large vessels -- fully loaded -- at both high and low tides." The Port of Tacoma has a naturally deep harbor that does not require maintenance dredging. At low tides, however, some of these very large ships cannot be fully laden; so Seattle-based Manson Construction is deepening the Sitcum Waterway, already at 46-48 ft., to a depth of 51 ft. The $1.024 million contract calls for approximately 170,000 cubic yards of material to be removed over a five- to six-week period. Manson will operate 24 hours a day, seven days a week using a 24-cubic yard clamshell bucket to remove material, which is barged to and deposited at a Department of Natural Resources-approved site in Commencement Bay (approximately 500 ft. in depth). The Sitcum Waterway was dredged to its current depth during 1994 environmental remediation dredging. The sediments of this project allowed a 25-acre expansion of the Maersk-Sealand Terminal (APM Terminal) in 1996. Today, the Sitcum Waterway serves three significant terminal operations: Maersk Sealand Terminal (APM Terminal): Calling at this terminal is Denmark-based Maersk Sealand and vessels operated by CSX Lines, a domestic container carrier serving Alaska, Hawaii and Guam. The facility boasts 132 acres (53 hectares) and two berths totaling 2,200 ft. (484 meters). Four with 18-container-wide outreach and one crane with a 14-container outreach load and unload containers. This facility offers immediate access to the Port's South Intermodal Yard. Husky Terminal (Terminal 7, Berth D): Three cranes with 14-container-wide outreach on this 1,000-foot (305-meter) berth serve container ships operated by Japan-based "K" Line. The terminal is directly adjacent the Port's North Intermodal Yard; containers move between the terminal and the intermodal yard without leaving Port property. Terminal 7 (Berths A, B and C): With 2,700 ft. (823 meters) of berth space, this Port-operated terminal is used for breakbulk shipments, RoRo cargoes and heavy lift/project cargoes. The facility features two cranes with 14-container wide outreach (Berth C) and a bulk materials crane (Berth B). With a rail spur on the dock, there is easy access to the Port's North Intermodal Yard.

Although there are strict rules when it comes to collecting a debt, you can't always rely on debt collectors to follow them. Unfortunately, there are debt collectors out there who will take advantage of your confusion and anxiety about dealing with them and are more than happy to accept your payment for a debt that doesn't belong to you.
If you get a call or a letter in the mail about a debt you don't recognize, here are some things you can do to verify whether or not the debt is yours:
- Find out who you're dealing with. Ask for the caller's name and the company he works for. Get their address and phone number. A legitimate debt collector won't have a problem giving you this information.
- Don't give them any personal information. Don't confirm whether or not the collector has your correct information, and don't correct them if they have wrong information. If the debt is not yours, giving them correct information could make it harder to dispute the debt later. Don't give them any information about your employment either.
- Ask for a debt validation notice. Collectors are required to provide, in writing, information about how much money you owe, who the original debt was with, and what to do if you dispute the debt. This information may help you in finding out if the debt is yours or not.
- Be your own detective. If you find out who the original creditor is, call them directly to find out more about the debt. You should also check your credit report to see if the debt appears on it.
- Dispute the debt in writing. Be as specific as possible as to why you don't owe the debt, but remember not to give any current information about where you live or work or even your birth date or social security number. If you want them to stop contacting you, you must ask them to stop in writing. Keep in mind, however, that asking them not to contact you won't keep them from filing a lawsuit if they believe you owe the debt.

ROME, Maine (NEWS CENTER) -- Adventure and imagination aren't just allowed, but expected when you're taking part in a safari at Camp Communicate.
A five day session on the property of Pine Tree Camp in Rome where 21 campers got the chance to spend time with other non-verbal kids their age. Adam Bodreau has been attending the camp for the past 13 years. Each summer learning more about advances in technology that helps him communicate.
"At home he signs more, but out in the community if they don't know his signs he automatically knows right where the words are and goes right to it," said Adam's mother Carol Bodreau.
Campers are encouraged during activities to use their 'talkers' to say what their seeing, feeling, or thinking. Volunteer Lauren Basler uses drama and theater to help campers learn better ways to use modern advances in technology.
"These kids are just as capable as any other kids of using their imaginations, of having fun," said Basler. "We went on a safari today and they were all amazing at using their talkers and being engaged just the same as any other kid would."
While campers took part in Camp Communicate, their parents were also invited for the week to take part in learning workshops so that they could be educated in the most advance forms of communication devices and how their children use them.

Cops: Woman falsely reported burglary
A Bayville woman is scheduled to appear in court later this month after being arrested and charged with falsely reporting her home had been burglarized, Nassau police said.
Police said Angela Bozzella-Blumhagen, 44, of 16 Bayville Ave., had moved several items, including a television and jewelry, to a neighbor's apartment -- then reported her residence was burglarized.
Police said the neighbor was unaware Bozzella-Blumhagen was making the claim. The incident was unrelated to superstorm Sandy, police said.
Bozzella-Blumhagen made the claim on Saturday.
An investigation uncovered the items, police said.
Bozzella-Blumhagen was charged with making a punishable false written statement and was issued a desk appearance ticket to appear for arraignment Nov. 30 in First District Court in Hempstead.

Bob Filner
Reconstituting San Diego's Planning Department was one of Bob Filner's signature initiatives during his short time in office, and a centerpiece of his promise to 'put the city's neighborhoods first'. Will his vision outlast his scandalous exit?
Voice of San Diego
A mayoral tenure that began with so much promise (especially for planners) has ended in disgrace, only months after it began. After mounting pressure from those outside and within his own party, a defiant Bob Filner announced his resignation Friday.
San Diego Union-Tribune
As its neighbor to the north considers merging its planning department, San Diego is headed in the opposite direction. The departure of the city's Development Services Director clears the way for Mayor Bob Filner to reestablish a planning department.
Voice of San Diego
Former Planning Director Bill Anderson details the organization, agendas, and partnerships of "best practice" planning departments that San Diego has studied in preparation for the unmerging of its Planning and Development Services departments.

My work horse pre emergent
By Rick on 02/19/2015
Verified Purchase
This is my main pre emergent and this brand is the most economical that I've found. I use it mixed with Roundup for pre and post emergence. This year I'm also trying it on Fescue lawns for Crabgrass prevention. I'm having a little trouble with small flakes clogging my sprayer and it's a bit of a pain to measure. It's a thick glue-like orange liquid which sticks to the measuring cup and takes some scrubbing to get out. Otherwise an effective and economical product.

Khartoum - Three Bulgarian helicopter crew on a UN contract kidnapped in Sudan's troubled Darfur region were released on Monday after 145 days in captivity, the World Food Programme said.
"They were released today. We still don't know the circumstances of their release... They were held in captivity for 145 days," WFP spokesperson Amor Almagro told AFP.
"I can assure you that the World Food Programme did not pay any ransom for them," she added.
The three aircrew were abducted by armed men on 13 January at a landing strip in Um-Shalaya, 60km southeast of El-Geneina, the capital of West Darfur state.
The hostages, working at the time for the UN Humanitarian Air Service which is managed by the WFP, appeared to be in good health, the agency said in a statement.
It was the second abduction of WFP aircrew in Darfur in three months, after three Latvians were seized by gunmen on 4 November 2010 in the South Darfur capital of Nyala. They were freed the following month.
WFP's Regional Director Amer Daoudi on Monday praised the government in Khartoum for its efforts to secure the release of the Bulgarians, who he said were seized while "working to help the most vulnerable people in Darfur".
At least 300 000 people have been killed in the Darfur conflict since non-Arab rebels first rose up against the Arab-dominated regime in Khartoum in 2003, according to the UN. Khartoum says 10 000 people have died.
Despite a relative lull in the war-ravaged region, there has been a wave of kidnappings for ransom since March 2009 when the International Criminal Court indicted President Omar al-Bashir for alleged war crimes in Darfur.
Around 30 foreigners have been kidnapped in Darfur since the indictment, with most of them released unharmed a few days later.

The time to consider this is when the purchase is made. Most things that say dry clean only, I put back on the rack. Many times manufacturers aren't sure how to care for a garment and error on the side of safety. Sometimes dry cleaning is recommended because of buttons, dyeing techniques or trim. Start by reading the fabric content and directions. I would research the fiber online to start with, and read the directions on the garment. Most wool shouldn't be washed, but some are made specifically for washing and generally are identified as "washable wool". Many fine fabrics (rayons, some silks and many blends) can be successfully hand washed and reshaped to dry. A secret to success is using a small amount (more is not better) of mild soap or detergent and making sure to rinse well, really well. When you are done, do it again. Reshape and dry flat or hang to dry based on shape of garment.

• US 'to ask UK to release emergency oil reserves'
• Greece will exit recession by 2014, IMF predicts
• US first-time jobless claims fall to four-year low
• Pound falls after Fitch warns UK may lose AAA rating
• Fitch cuts Bank of England's outlook to 'negative'
• IMF approves €28bn loan to Greece
• Ireland will revise down growth forecast next month
20.58 That's it from our live blog for today. We'll be back tomorrow. Don't forget to check out our Finance page for the latest business news.
20.14 Greece's economy is expected to exit recession by 2014, the International Monetary Fund has said, after shrinking 4.8pc in 2012. The IMF predicts 0pc growth in 2013, followed by 2.5pc in 2014.
20.10 US markets have closed. The Dow has risen 54.42 - 0.41pc - to 13,248.52, the S&P 500 has closed up 7.99 - 0.57pc - at 1,402.27, and the Nasdaq has climbed 15.64 - 0.51pc - to 3,056.37.
S&P 500 closes above 1,400 for the first time since June 5, 2008. It is the first time in history that the three indices have closed this high at the same time.
19.48 Question to Cameron on oil reserves release. PM said he talked with Obama about matter yesterday. He adds that the price in UK is high. Would like to see oil prices at lower level. Reserve stock release has to be discussed more broadly. Have to look at issue carefully but it is something worth looking at to "smooth out the price".
Cameron described as "Prime Minister, UK of Great Britain and Northern Ireland" on New York web feed, as he talks to university students.
19.18 David Cameron has told New York University students that he "greatly admires the growth and prosperity and jobs" in the US at the moment.
19.14 Earlier today, the IMF approved a €28bn loan to Greece. IMF chief Christine Lagarde said:
Greece has made tremendous efforts to implement wide-ranging painful measures over the past two years, in the midst of a deep economic recession and a difficult social environment. The fiscal deficit has been reduced markedly and competitiveness has gradually improved. However, the challenges confronting Greece remain significant, with a large competitiveness gap, a high level of public debt, and an undercapitalized banking system. The new Fund-supported program will enable Greece to address these challenges while remaining in the Eurozone.
19.11 Incidentally, of the countries who owe most the IMF, Sudan is the worst at 987m (in SDRs), with Somalia owing 233m and Zimbabwe on 87m.
19.05 Iceland has repaid, ahead of schedule, $443.3m to the IMF. The sum is about one fifth of the $2.15bn the country borrowed from the IMF under its Stand-By Arrangement.
18.42 More on our main oil price story. David Cameron says: I want to try to help British familes, just as Barack Obama wants to help American families... We didn't reach a decision yesterday about oil reserves but we discussed the issue."
18.40 Amazingly, the IMF believes Greece could make a return to the debt markets as early as 2015. IMF warns against Greek delays in implementing reforms but doesn't see elections as a risk to programme.
18.34 Argentina will take legal action against oil companies operating around the disputed Falkland islands, Foreign Minister Hector Timerman has said:
We will take the required legal, administrative, civil and criminal actions against oil companies currently involved in drilling. We will also send warnings to companies which might be interested in these activities, serving them notice of the possible administrative, civil and criminal sanctions they might face.
18.27 Italian PM Mario Monti believes the fact that Italian bond yields have fallen further than any other euro region country shows that the decline is not only due to the ECB's lending programme.
18.20 An IMF official has reportedly told Reuters that the financing gap for Greece to the end of 2014 stands at €165bn.
Meanwhile, Dow Jones is reporting that the IMF sees no scope for significant tax increases in Greece but the country must boost collection rates.
Debt-to-GDP ratio by 2020 now projected to be 116.5pc, less than the 120pc originally expected. IMF states that failure to reach economic targets under Greek programme would result in unsustainable dynamic. New Greek loan prgramme loosens fiscal target by 1pc.
18.10 Ireland is seeking a significant reduction in the total €17bn it would have to pay in interest on promissory notes issued to its bailed-out banks, a finance ministry spokesman has said.
17.54 The S&P 500 has risen above 1,400 for the first time since 2008.
The Dow is up 0.3pc, the S&P 500 is up 0.4pc and the Nasdaq is up 0.2pc.
17.49 Chris Adams, markets editor at the FT:
Fitch has kept the Bank of England at AAA but downgraded its outlook to negative.
The move follows the credit agency's decision last night to cut its outlook for the UK to negative.
17.21 The Telegraph's assistant editor Jeremy Warner believes Business Secretary Vince Cable's loosening of employment regulatins doesn't go far enough:
It worries me that the no fault dismissal proceedure would be confined to micro-business. It's an approach which threatens to establish an employment apartheid, where employees in large companies enjoy the full protection of existing legislation, but those in smaller ones don't. These looser arrangements need to apply to all companies, large as well as small.
17.14 The German government's independent panel of economic advisers has revised its 2012 growth forecast down from 0.9pc to 0.8pc.
17.07 Former Former European Central Bank Governing Board member Lorenzo Bini-Smaghi has written in the FT that if EU leaders don't bail out Ireland and Portugal soon then Europe could be plunged back into chaos:
[The current strategy] means helplessly observing the widening of credit default swap spreads on sovereign bonds until it becomes obvious that the country in question will not be able to refinance itself in the markets; then publicly denying that restructuring is even an option, but privately considering involving private creditors and even discussing the details with some market participants; finally, hastily putting in place an additional package and asking the various countries' parliaments for approval, which they might be willing to consider… but only in exchange for debt restructuring.
Unless this approach is quickly abandoned, Greece will turn out not to be an exception after all. Markets would turn to the next prey, like in Agatha Christie's Ten Little Indians. Who will be next? Ireland? Spain? Italy? Where would the process stop?
16.56 European markets have closed. The FTSE 100 slipped 0.08pc to 5,940.72, the DAX rose 0.92pc to 7,144.45 and the CAC added 0.44pc to 3,580.21.
16.32 S&P says new Greek bonds rated CCC. After the swap is completed "we will likely consider Greece's selective default to be cured and assign a forward-looking sovereign credit rating of 'CCC' to Greece", the agency said in a statement.
Meanwhile, European Commission President Jose Manuel Barroso has said that the uncertainty over Greece has been overcome, but that the situation in the euro area "remains fragile".
S&P adds that recapitalisation of Greek banks should help to maintain domestic depositor confidence.
16.26 S&P has said that the outlook on the US remains negative. Ratings agency says it is improbably any economic improvement would bring back AAA.
US markets still in positive territory though. Dow up 0.3pc, S&P 500 up 0.5pc, Nasdaq up 0.5pc.
16.12 An aide to US President Barack Obama has said the oil release reports are "inaccurate". Brent on the way back up.
16.03 IMF approves €28bn euro arrangement for Greece. Immediate disbursement of €1.68bn.
15.26 Reuters is reporting that the UK expects a formal request shortly from the US to release its emergency oil reserves. Brent has fallen on that news.
15.19 Top economist Nouriel Roubini has revealed his biggest fear for the global economy is oil prices:
The reason is fear. Not only are oil supplies plentiful, but demand in the US and Europe has been lower, owing to decreasing car use in the last few years and weak or negative GDP growth in the US and the eurozone. Simply put, increasing worry about a military conflict between Israel and Iran has created a "fear premium."
If the drums of war [between Iran and the US-Israel alliance] grow louder this summer, oil prices could rise in a way that will most likely cause a US and global growth slowdown, and even an outright recession if a military conflict erupts and sends oil prices soaring.
Oil is already well above $100/barrel, despite weak economic growth in advanced countries and many emerging markets. The fear premium might push prices significantly higher, even if no military conflict ultimately takes place, and could trigger a global recession if one does.
15.05 The Financial Times is reporting that holders of Greek credit defult swaps - a form of insurance against the country defaulting on its debts - will be paid about $2.5bn at an auction of the swaps next Monday.
The newspaper says there are about $3bn-worth of outstanding Greek default swaps in the market, and based on the price they are trading at now, about 77pc of that total value will be paid out at the auction.
People who took out the swaps as insurance against holding of Greek government debt will be pleased - after all, the agreement to restructure the bonds themselves left Greek debt holders with new bonds worth only 31.5pc of what they paid for the originals.
15.01 Slovenia is expecting a recession this year. The country has sharply revised its growth forecast, forecasting a 0.9pc drop in output instead of an expansion of 0.2pc.
Bostjan Vasle, the head of the government's analysis and research institute, said:
The predicted contraction is a consequence of the expected drop of foreign demand and tougher conditions for financing the state and banks.
Meanwhile, S&P has put Ukraine on negative outlook.
14.55 Irish Finance Minister Michael Noonan (below) says his country will next month revise down growth forecasts, but government will meet still meet 2012 fiscal targets.
14.50 European Central Bank Governing Council member Ewald Nowotny says the ECB is discussing strategy to exit crisis mode.
14.48 Italy's leading bank, Intesa Sanpaolo, suffers a Q4 2011 loss of €10.12bn, and an €8.2bn loss for the year.
14.34 EU lawmakers have agreed a proposal to ease the capital burden for insurers under planned Solvency II regime. Fitch claims the rules won't spark a wave of relocations.
14.31 Belgium-based SWIFT, which operates the bulk of global cross-border payments, will cut off sanctioned Iranian banks on Saturday under tighter EU financial sanctions on Tehran.
14.23 Reuters is reporting that RBS chief executive Stephen Hester has said that the faster the UK Government starts selling its stake in the the bank, the better it will be for everyone.
13.55 Vince Cable has been speaking at the British Chambers of Commerce (see 11.45 and 11.55 posts) conference - and he's been asked about yesterday's Goldman Sachs tale, in which trader Greg Smith quit via a letter in the New York Times saying the bank had lost "moral fibre" and that he had seen co-workers refer to clients as "muppets".
Louisa Peacock tweets:
13.45 Wall Street is now open for the day and trading broadly flat:
The Dow Jones slipped 0.1pc to 13,182 shortly after opening, while the S&P 500 also lost 0.1pc.
13.20 In fact there's a fair few US economic stats out this afternoon - and we'll see shortly how the stock market reacts to them:
The producer prices index increased by 0.4pc in February, up from 0.1pc in January, while core PPI, which excludes food and energy costs, rose 0.2pc.
13.00 The latest US unemployment figures are out and show the number of new people claiming jobless benefits has fallen to a four-year low.
Initial claims for unemployment benefits fell by 14,000 to 351,000 people, the Labour Department said. The figure came in below estimates of a fall to 355,000 people.
12.25 Nice graph from Reuters showing that everything is going to be okay - at least according to the VIX volatility index, otherwise known as the 'fear' index.
It has fallen below the average level seen between 2003 and 2008, the halycon days before the financial crisis:
12.20 Looking ahead to the US markets opening, the futures market is expecting shares to rise:
The Dow Jones is forecast to open up 0.2pc at 13,157 points, and the S&P 500 is also expected to rise 0.2pc.
11.55 British Airways and IAG boss Willie Walsh has picked up on the criticisms levelled at Nick Clegg (see previous post) about the Government's refusal to consider building another runway at Heathrow in his own BCC address - Louisa reports:
Willie Walsh, chief executive of IAG, says it's a disgrace that Heathrow is nearly full and the Government is hindering expansion.
His speech to the BCC conference predictably made the case, again, for an appropriate aviation policy. He warns the UK is not open for business. China, on the other hand, has built 42 airports over the last decade and is set to build another 55 over the next eight years.
The business audience agrees on the whole, but there seems to be some concerns if Heathrow got a third runway whether it's service would be up to standard - or let us down like the opening of Terminal 5.
Other business leaders said there's a reluctance from BA to invest outside of London in Manchester. London wants all the business for itself, they said.
11.45 Jobs Editor Louisa Peacock is at the British Chambers of Commerce (BCC) annual conference this morning, where the Deputy Prime Minister Nick Clegg has been speaking.
He was of course asked about Fitch's warning on the UK's AAA credit rating but, says Louisa, ducked the question:
Nick Clegg steered clear of answering direct questions on Fitch's warning of a downgrade today, saying only that the rating agency backed the deficit reduction plan. He went on to say that tackling youth unemployment and encouraging more employee-owned firms like John Lewis are the two priorities for growth.
The audience were less convinced, wanting answers on the lack of role models for young people and attacking the Government over it's aviation policy. One business owner said the Government should stop hindering the expansion of Heathrow which is stifling growth.
11.30 Markets reporter Rachel Cooper gives us an update on where shares are heading this morning:
Britain's leading shares traded flat on Thursday morning, unmoved by Fitch's threat to Britain's top investment-grade rating.
Despite Fitch saying that Britain risked losing its AAA-rating because of its limited ability to deal with shocks, the FTSE 100 was virtually flat, down just 8 points to 5,936.
"They have simply given the Chancellor a warning shot across the bows as it's unlikely that any downgrade is imminent but they have reminded George Osborne to be vigilant in keeping on track with his budget deficit reduction plans," said Simon Denham, head of Capital Spreads.
10.50 While quantitative easing in the UK and US, and opening up of the ECB to offer cheap loans to European banks are widely viewed to have staved off an outright 1930s-style Depression after the banking crisis of late 2008, the question now is how can econmies be weaned off this support?
Deutsche Bank analysts attempt to answer that question in a research note this morning - but the answer they come up with won't provide much comfort.
A Chinese currency with a value linked to the price of gold or other commodities could emerge as the new "standard", replacing the dollar, the researchers speculate.
While it seems that the transition from the credit to the central bank money regime was managed reasonably successfully, it remains unclear how we can move from the central bank money regime towards a more sustainable new regime based on traditional money and hedge-credit relations.
So far, there has been no example of a successful exit from zero-rate-interest cum non-standard monetary policy regimes.
We can only speculate as to what may come after a loss of trust in the central bank money regime. A Chinese currency linked to gold or a commodity basket could emerge as the new standard in a post-crisis global money regime, in which China will be the dominant global economic power.
10.20 Spain has successfully sold €3bn of government bonds this morning, less than the maximum amounf of €3.5bn it had been planning to sell, in the first debt sale since new PM Mariano Rajoy (below) pushed through a less austere budget deficit target for this year.
€1bn of four-year bonds were sold with an average yield of 3.374pc, down from 3.748pc in a sale in January, while €1bn of two-year bonds were sold with a 2.44pc yield, and six year debt with a 4.193pc yield.
10.10 Perhaps unsurprisingly, unemployment in Greece has risen again - but the level it has risen to is certainly hair-raising.
Unemployment rose to 20.7pc in the final quarter of 2011, up from 17.7pc in the previous three months and far higher than the 14.2pc rate in the last quarter of 2010.
09.50 Switzerland, which like Japan, has suffered in recent months because of its currency being seen as a safe haven while the euro and the dollar were seen as being somewhat shaky, has said this morning it is committed to keeping a cap on the franc oof 1.20 to the euro.
Setting the cap back in September, after the currency had risen by 20pc against the euro in the preceding months, has stabilised the economy, the Swiss National Bank said today.
The central bank also doubled its growth forecast for 2012 - with a prediction of growth of close to 1pc this year, up from an earlier estimate of 0.5pc.
09.30 For a change, the busiest trading going on in the bond market is not investors offloading the borrowings of indebted European governments - it's in US treasuries, aka US government bonds.
The improving news on the US economy has sent investors out of the safe haven of treasuries, seeking more excitement in the stock market and other asset classes.
As a result, the price has fallen and the yield, or interest investors charge to hold the debt, has risen to a four-and-a-half month high.
The yield on benchmark 10-year US bonds rose to 2.33pc this morning, the highest since the end of October, when the eurozone crisis started to worsen.
09.15 The pound has also taken a hit this morning following Fitch's ratings threat.
Sterling traded down 0.1pc at $1.5647 against the dollar and down 0.4pc against the euro at €1.1982.
Peter O'Flanagan of Clear Currency said:
Fitch's announcement took some of the wind out of the pounds sails as it fell back against the USD below 1.5700.
08.40 A bit more on that threat of a downgrade to the UK's AAA credit rating by Fitch (see 07.10 post) - economist Howard Archer of IHS Global Insight says the move will really focus the Chancellor's mind ahead of next week's Budget.
The ratings agency cut the outlook on Britain's top rating to "negative", citing the "very limited fiscal space to absorb further adverse economic shocks in light of such elevated debt levels and a potentially weaker than currently forecast economic recovery" and so the Chancellor must stick to his word on bringing down debts. He writes:
Fitch's move heaps further pressure on the Chancellor to stick to his fiscal austerity plans and to resist any temptation for unfunded giveaways.
The Chancellor has been giving every indication that he will stick firmly to his fiscal consolidation plans and Fitch's move reinforces belief that he will be true to his word.
08.05 London markets have opened the day slightly lower:
The FTSE 100 was down 0.1pc at 5,937 points shortly after trading started.
07.50 While Greece's bailout got the go-ahead from European parliaments last night, all is not completely rosy in the eurozone garden.
Dutch politicians have expressed their unhappiness about Brussels dictating the size of the budget deficit the country can run, thereby curbing the government's spending powers.
Key figures in the country's Labour party, which is pro-European, said they would vote against the fiscal discipline treaty (the same one David Cameron said no thanks to back in December) if the Dutch government agrees to the target of a deficit of no more than 3pc of GDP.
The Labour party holds a fair bit of clout because the minority government, led by Mark Rutte (below) needs its votes to get the treaty ratified in the Dutch parliament.
07.40 Looking ahead to the markets opening, the jubilation of yesterday morning seems to have faded somewhat, as the Wall Street rally faded.
The FTSE 100 is expected to open down slightly, off 0.1pc at 5,949.
Asian markets closed higher, as Japanese stocks benefited from the dollar strengthening against the yen, which will make its exports more competitive again.
The Nikkei closed up 0,7pc at 10, 123 while the Hang Seng added 0.1pc in Hong Kong.
Last night in the US, the Dow Jones ended the day up 0,1pc at 13,194 while the S&P 500 slipped 0.1pc.
07.30 A quick look at the front pages of this morning's papers - which are unusually bereft of eurozone debt crisis stories.
The Financial Times has splashed on a speech by China's leader Wen Jiabao who has warned that China must bring about political reforms to keep its economic prgress going.
Meanwhile, the Daily Mail has gone with yesterday's hot topic, "Goldman boss: our toxic bank" and the sub-headline: "It's morally bankrupt and calls clients 'muppets' says disgusted British-based executive as he walks out".
For more on that story read Damian Reece's comment that Goldmans has the chance to change, but will probably blow it - again or Helia Ebrahimi's piece, Welcome to the muppet show at Goldman Sachs.
07.20 And as the UK faced being stripped of its AAA rating, Greece discovered it was about to lose a finance minister.
Evangelos Venizelos, to be exact. But unlike the UK's AAA credit rating, which once gone may be slow in returning, Mr Venizelos will be stepping down on Sunday only to return moments later as leader of the PASOK party.
07.10 The big news last night was that Fitch put the UK on a negative outlook, a worrying sign that our AAA credit rating may not last the year.
The agency revised the outlook on the UK's rating to negative from stable, warning that the Government has "very limited fiscal space to absorb further adverse economic shocks".
Jonathan Sibun and Louise Armitstead report:
In a major setback for George Osborne ahead of next week's Budget, Fitch said the "risks and uncertainty" surrounding the Coalition's debt reduction plans were "material".
Fitch said it regarded the Government's fiscal plans as "credible", but said that its decision to take a negative outlook reflected "the very limited fiscal space to absorb further adverse economic shocks in light of such elevated debt levels and a potentially weaker than currently forecast economic recovery".
The credit rating agency put a slightly greater than one in two chance on a downgrade for the UK over the next two years.
07.00 Good morning and welcome back to our live coverage of the eurozone debt crisis.

Madison area? Lake Monona
Hey wondering if there are any borders who get out on the madison chain? I've got a SAN and try and get out every weekend early on Monona.
Has everyone quit in Wisconson already?
Its not that cold yet!
Hey Ron
Madison has an active scene, but isn't the easiest to find with the active collegiate scene and 3 event scene here. Most of the Dane and Rock county riders hang out at MidwestWakeboarder.com which is a smaller version of this site use for finding thirds.
Other places for finding thirds used to be Redline Watersports just off of 51 by Mcfarland. They used to have a list of people looking for thirds, I don't know if they are still doing that.
Otherwise if you have a facebook hop on and check out the MidwestWakeboard.com Fall Free Ride where people exchange gas for pulls all weekend. This year it's October 1st in Janesville Wi. There are usually about 100 people over the weekend that come and hangout. Or make friends with people on the event page before it even starts.
I'm a student up in Madison and have been pulling the wakeboard team the last few years. We run on Mendota during the week but monona weekdays has our other boat which pulls 3event and wakeboard practices.
Since i'm in school my time has been more limited but I've been riding, coaching, and competing for years so if you wanted some pointers/lessons let me know and I'd be happy to help you out on the water!
Hope all of this helps!
John Zdeblick (JohnnyZ)
Hey thanks for the info John! I'll have to check into midwestwakeboard and stop in over at Redline. Would be cool to get you out on my boat sometime so I could see somebody throwing some real tricks behind it! We try and get out early weekend mornings till ice up! Guessing if your a student at madison early mornings prob aren't your thing though! I'll hit you up via email sometime anyway.
I've pulled practice the last 6 mornings on mendota starting before the sun is up... we like mornings
|All times are GMT -7. The time now is 6:05 AM.

China to keep lid on fresh IPOs for near term
China won't lift its freeze on initial public offerings in the near term, state media said Thursday.
"New shares issues are unlikely to resume anytime soon," Li Qingyuan, head of the China Securities Regulatory Commission's research center, was quoted as saying by the Securities Times. "The timing is not appropriate."
China quietly suspended new initial public offerings in its domestic markets soon after...

There are a number of federal and state laws that govern the world of work. Ignorance of these laws – or of basic workers' rights – can sometimes result in an employee being treated or paid unfairly.
Watch attorney Gerald Williams on The American Law Journal television program on wage and hour issues, broadcast on the Philadelphia CNN-News affiliate WFMZ-TV.
The program aired December 14, 2015.
"Employment law leans in the direction of the employer, and discrimination/retaliation can be tricky to prove. Often we have to look at history and patterns, third-party intervention, documents, and the like. But as long as you have enough evidence for a summary judgment, you're in a better position to negotiate."
-Christopher Markos
Most employees have the right to overtime compensation (generally one-and-a-half times their hourly wages) when they work more than 8 hours in a day, and exceed 40 hours per week. They are also entitled to accrued vacation time or any other outstanding benefits at the time they terminate their employment with a particular company or organization. And these rights are guaranteed, regardless of whether the employee belongs to a union. They are enforced under federal laws including the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) and state laws including Pennsylvania's Wage Payment and Collection Law and the New Jersey Wage and Hour Law.
Unscrupulous employers may attempt to evade overtime or other legal obligations by "exempting" them through designations such as 'professional', 'salaried' or 'executive'. Many workers have been deprived of rightful payments – sometimes for years – by this very tactic.
Williams Cuker Berezofsky has successfully litigated wage and hour employment disputes for both individuals and groups (class action cases), with settlements for lost wages, penalties and attorneys' fees.
Since 1906, the Federal Employers Liability Act has protected the rights of railroad workers injured on the job, when those injuries resulted from the negligence of the railroad or any of its agents.
Compensation in these cases is governed by a number of factors, including:
Many workers make the mistake of assuming they are entitled only to lost wages. But, depending on the circumstances, workers can potentially recover for past, present and future pain and suffering as well as past, present and future wage loss. Every case is different.
For more information about how the experienced Pennsylvania labor & employment lawyers at Williams Cuker Berezofsky can assist you, call 215-557-0099 or 856-667-0500, or contact us online. We offer free consultations and represent clients in Pennsylvania, New Jersey and across the country.

Optimal controls for a mathematical model of tumor-immune interactions under targeted chemotherapy with immune boost
Urszula Ledzewicz - Dept. of Mathematics and Statistics, Southern Illinois University Edwardsville, Edwardsville, Illinois, 62026-1653, United States (email)
Abstract: An optimal control problem for combination of cancer chemotherapy with immunotherapy in form of a boost to the immune system is considered as a multi-input optimal control problem. The objective to be minimized is chosen as a weighted average of (i) the number of cancer cells at the terminal time, (ii) a measure for the immunocompetent cell densities at the terminal point (included as a negative term), the overall amounts of (iii) cytotoxic agents and (iv) immune boost given as a measure for the side effects of treatment and (v) a small penalty on the free terminal time that limits the overall therapy horizon. This last term is essential in obtaining a mathematically well-posed problem formulation. Both analytical and numerical results about the structures of optimal controls will be presented that give some insights into the structure of optimal protocols, i.e., the dose rates and sequencing of drugs in these combination treatments.
Keywords: Optimal control, singular controls, tumor-immune interactions, chemotherapy, regions of attraction.
