The Highly Competitive Pac-12 Has Just 1 Team Left in the Playoff Hunt
The list of teams in the running for one of the four college football playoff spots has whittled down to just a handful of teams. The top three spots go to the remaining undefeated major programs: Alabama, Clemson and Notre Dame. Teams with one loss include Michigan, Georgia, Oklahoma, West Virginia and Ohio State. UCF remains undefeated and has a good chance to finish the season that way but would likely need some other teams to falter in order to make it to the Playoff.
At 8-1, Washington State remains the only team in the Pac-12 with a legitimate shot at making the Playoff. The only blemish on their record is a three-point loss to USC. The Cougars also have victories over 12th-ranked Oregon and 24th-ranked Stanford this year, and remaining games against Arizona and Washington after this weekend's matchup with Colorado. If they win out, they would face the champion of the Pac-12 South for the Conference Championship on November 30.
Colorado started 5-0 but lost their last five games. Early season wins over Nebraska and UCLA look far less impressive now that both of those teams have struggled. Despite the losing streak, Colorado has remained competitive. After Washington State, the Buffalos will face Utah and California.
Washington State began playing competitively back in 1894 and achieved early success when it defeated Brown in the 1915 Rose Bowl. They also played in the 1931 Rose Bowl, losing to Alabama before enduring a 51-year bowl drought that ended in 1981. The Cougars enjoyed success in the late 1990s, under head coach Mike Price and quarterback Ryan Leaf. More recently the team has achieved considerable success under head coach Mike Leach, who instituted his prolific "air raid" offense. The team finished 9-4 last year.
Colorado started playing football in 1890 and has won 27 conference championships across five different conferences. They also won a share of the national championship in 1990 after defeating a previously top-ranked Notre Dame team in the Orange Bowl 10-9. They shared the national title with Georgia Tech that year under a good bit of controversy. Colorado had defeated Missouri on the final play of the game on what turned out to be the 'fifth' down—undetected by the officials.
The Pacific Northwest Is Seeing Success on the Field and in the Economy
Washington's economy has been booming. Real GDP has outpaced the nation throughout most of the current business cycle and rose 4.4% in 2017. Nonfarm employment has risen 3.1% over the past year, while the unemployment rate has fallen to 4.4%. The Seattle metropolitan area, which is home to just over half of Washington's population and a slightly larger share of the jobs in the state, tends to account for the bulk of the state's growth. Led by gains in its massive tech sector, Seattle's rapid growth has pushed into the central part of the state, as businesses and individuals seek less expensive and less congested locations. Seattle's strong growth has been replicated in many of the Pacific Northwest's mid-sized cities, including Spokane, Boise, Reno, Coeur d'Alene and Missoula.
Washington State is located in Pullman, which is located in the eastern part of the state about 75 miles south of Spokane. Eastern Washington is mostly rural, with an economy built on agriculture, forestry, education and tourism. Economic growth in eastern Washington has not tended to be anywhere near as strong as in Seattle, but growth has been solid nonetheless. Pullman is named after George Pullman, an industrialist that developed the Pullman Sleeping Car during the late 19th century. The city is located about eight miles west of Moscow, Idaho, home to the University of Idaho. The concentration of higher education facilities has helped spawn a startup culture that has fueled solid economic gains.
Agriculture plays an important role in eastern Washington and the highly seasonal nature of the industry tends to cause wide swings in job growth over the course of the year. Wheat is one of the major crops in the region, and lower prices have taken a toll on farm income. While agriculture is important it is not a large employer. Higher education, healthcare and manufacturing account for the bulk of nonfarm jobs. Washington State University, the University of Idaho, Potlatch, St. Joseph Medical Center and Blount are the region's largest employers. The large number of jobs in higher education and healthcare provides a great deal of stability to the local economy.
Colorado's economy has been one of the strongest in the nation in recent years. Nonfarm employment has risen 2.9% over the past year and the unemployment rate has fallen to just 3.1%. Colorado's rapid job growth and the allure of the outdoors have encouraged a huge influx of new residents and businesses, which has set off a real estate boom. The state of Colorado has added 559,000 residents since 2010. While Denver has been the epicenter of much of this growth, Boulder, home to the University of Colorado, has seen similarly strong growth.
The influx of new residents and new businesses has refocused Colorado's economy around high growth industries such as aerospace, healthcare, alternative energy, data analytics and outdoor recreation. The growing cluster of rapidly growing industries has helped make Colorado a top destination for young people. All this growth has pushed housing prices and apartment rents higher, however, which has helped reignite the building boom taking place along the Front Range. While higher costs may deter some businesses from expanding, there is a huge backlog of projects underway which should help ensure that job growth remains solid for some time to come.
Recently, the stock market has experienced high levels of volatility. If you are thinking about participating in fast moving markets, please take the time to read the information below. Wells Fargo Investments, LLC will not be restricting trading on fast moving securities, but you should understand that there can be significant additional risks to trading in a fast market. We've tried to outline the issues so you can better understand the potential risks. If you're unsure about the risks of a fast market and how they may affect a particular trade you've considering, you may want to place your trade through a phone agent at 1-800-TRADERS. The agent can explain the difference between market and limit orders and answer any questions you may have about trading in volatile markets. Higher Margin Maintenance Requirements on Volatile Issues The wide swings in intra-day trading have also necessitated higher margin maintenance requirements for certain stocks, specifically Internet, e-commerce and high-tech issues. Due to their high volatility, some of these stocks will have an initial and a maintenance requirement of up to 70%. Stocks are added to this list daily based on market conditions. Please call 1-800-TRADERS to check whether a particular stock has a higher margin maintenance requirement. Please note: this higher margin requirement applies to both new purchases and current holdings. A change in the margin requirement for a current holding may result in a margin maintenance call on your account. Fast Markets A fast market is characterized by heavy trading and highly volatile prices. These markets are often the result of an imbalance of trade orders, for example: all "buys" and no "sells." Many kinds of events can trigger a fast market, for example a highly anticipated Initial Public Offering (IPO), an important company news announcement or an analyst recommendation. Remember, fast market conditions can affect your trades regardless of whether they are placed with an agent, over the internet or on a touch tone telephone system. In Fast Markets service response and account access times may vary due to market conditions, systems performance, and other factors. Potential Risks in a Fast Market "Real-time" Price Quotes May Not be Accurate Prices and trades move so quickly in a fast market that there can be significant price differences between the quotes you receive one moment and the next. Even "real-time quotes" can be far behind what is currently happening in the market. The size of a quote, meaning the number of shares available at a particular price, may change just as quickly. A real-time quote for a fast moving stock may be more indicative of what has already occurred in the market rather than the price you will receive. Your Execution Price and Orders Ahead In a fast market, orders are submitted to market makers and specialists at such a rapid pace, that a backlog builds up which can create significant delays. Market makers may execute orders manually or reduce size guarantees during periods of volatility. When you place a market order, your order is executed on a first-come first-serve basis. This means if there are orders ahead of yours, those orders will be executed first. The execution of orders ahead of yours can significantly affect your execution price. Your submitted market order cannot be changed or cancelled once the stock begins trading. Initial Public Offerings may be Volatile IPOs for some internet, e-commerce and high tech issues may be particularly volatile as they begin to trade in the secondary market. Customers should be aware that market orders for these new public companies are executed at the current market price, not the initial offering price. Market orders are executed fully and promptly, without regard to price and in a fast market this may result in an execution significantly different from the current price quoted for that security. Using a limit order can limit your risk of receiving an unexpected execution price. Large Orders in Fast Markets Large orders are often filled in smaller blocks. An order for 10,000 shares will sometimes be executed in two blocks of 5,000 shares each. In a fast market, when you place an order for 10,000 shares and the real-time market quote indicates there are 15,000 shares at 5, you would expect your order to execute at 5. In a fast market, with a backlog of orders, a real-time quote may not reflect the state of the market at the time your order is received by the market maker or specialist. Once the order is received, it is executed at the best prices available, depending on how many shares are offered at each price. Volatile markets may cause the market maker to reduce the size of guarantees. This could result in your large order being filled in unexpected smaller blocks and at significantly different prices. For example: an order for 10,000 shares could be filled as 2,500 shares at 5 and 7,500 shares at 10, even though you received a real-time quote indicating that 15,000 shares were available at 5. In this example, the market moved significantly from the time the "real-time" market quote was received and when the order was submitted. Online Trading and Duplicate Orders Because fast markets can cause significant delays in the execution of a trade, you may be tempted to cancel and resubmit your order. Please consider these delays before canceling or changing your market order, and then resubmitting it. There is a chance that your order may have already been executed, but due to delays at the exchange, not yet reported. When you cancel or change and then resubmit a market order in a fast market, you run the risk of having duplicate orders executed. Limit Orders Can Limit Risk A limit order establishes a "buy price" at the maximum you're willing to pay, or a "sell price" at the lowest you are willing to receive. Placing limit orders instead of market orders can reduce your risk of receiving an unexpected execution price. A limit order does not guarantee your order will be executed -" however, it does guarantee you will not pay a higher price than you expected. Telephone and Online Access During Volatile Markets During times of high market volatility, customers may experience delays with the Wells Fargo Online Brokerage web site or longer wait times when calling 1-800-TRADERS. It is possible that losses may be suffered due to difficulty in accessing accounts due to high internet traffic or extended wait times to speak to a telephone agent. Freeriding is Prohibited Freeriding is when you buy a security low and sell it high, during the same trading day, but use the proceeds of its sale to pay for the original purchase of the security. There is no prohibition against day trading, however you must avoid freeriding. To avoid freeriding, the funds for the original purchase of the security must come from a source other than the sale of the security. Freeriding violates Regulation T of the Federal Reserve Board concerning the extension of credit by the broker-dealer (Wells Fargo Investments, LLC) to its customers. The penalty requires that the customer's account be frozen for 90 days. Stop and Stop Limit Orders A stop is an order that becomes a market order once the security has traded through the stop price chosen. You are guaranteed to get an execution. For example, you place an order to buy at a stop of $50 which is above the current price of $45. If the price of the stock moves to or above the $50 stop price, the order becomes a market order and will execute at the current market price. Your trade will be executed above, below or at the $50 stop price. In a fast market, the execution price could be drastically different than the stop price. A "sell stop" is very similar. You own a stock with a current market price of $70 a share. You place a sell stop at $67. If the stock drops to $67 or less, the trade becomes a market order and your trade will be executed above, below or at the $67 stop price. In a fast market, the execution price could be drastically different than the stop price. A stop limit has two major differences from a stop order. With a stop limit, you are not guaranteed to get an execution. If you do get an execution on your trade, you are guaranteed to get your limit price or better. For example, you place an order to sell stock you own at a stop limit of $67. If the stock drops to $67 or less, the trade becomes a limit order and your trade will only be executed at $67 or better. Glossary All or None (AON) A stipulation of a buy or sell order which instructs the broker to either fill the whole order or don't fill it at all; but in the latter case, don't cancel it, as the broker would if the order were filled or killed. Day Order A buy or sell order that automatically expires if it is not executed during that trading session. Fill or Kill An order placed that must immediately be filled in its entirety or, if this is not possible, totally canceled. Good Til Canceled (GTC) An order to buy or sell which remains in effect until it is either executed or canceled (WellsTrade® accounts have set a limit of 60 days, after which we will automatically cancel the order). Immediate or Cancel An order condition that requires all or part of an order to be executed immediately. The part of the order that cannot be executed immediately is canceled. Limit Order An order to buy or sell a stated quantity of a security at a specified price or at a better price (higher for sales or lower for purchases). Maintenance Call A call from a broker demanding the deposit of cash or marginable securities to satisfy Regulation T requirements and/or the House Maintenance Requirement. This may happen when the customer's margin account balance falls below the minimum requirements due to market fluctuations or other activity. Margin Requirement Minimum amount that a client must deposit in the form of cash or eligible securities in a margin account as spelled out in Regulation T of the Federal Reserve Board. Reg. T requires a minimum of $2,000 or 50% of the purchase price of eligible securities bought on margin or 50% of the proceeds of short sales. Market Makers NASD member firms that buy and sell NASDAQ securities, at prices they display in NASDAQ, for their own account. There are currently over 500 firms that act as NASDAQ Market Makers. One of the major differences between the NASDAQ Stock Market and other major markets in the U.S. is NASDAQ's structure of competing Market Makers. Each Market Maker competes for customer order flow by displaying buy and sell quotations for a guaranteed number of shares. Once an order is received, the Market Maker will immediately purchase for or sell from its own inventory, or seek the other side of the trade until it is executed, often in a matter of seconds. Market Order An order to buy or sell a stated amount of a security at the best price available at the time the order is received in the trading marketplace. Specialists Specialist firms are those securities firms which hold seats on national securities exchanges and are charged with maintaining orderly markets in the securities in which they have exclusive franchises. They buy securities from investors who want to sell and sell when investors want to buy. Stop An order that becomes a market order once the security has traded through the designated stop price. Buy stops are entered above the current ask price. If the price moves to or above the stop price, the order becomes a market order and will be executed at the current market price. This price may be higher or lower than the stop price. Sell stops are entered below the current market price. If the price moves to or below the stop price, the order becomes a market order and will be executed at the current market price. Stop Limit An order that becomes a limit order once the security trades at the designated stop price. A stop limit order instructs a broker to buy or sell at a specific price or better, but only after a given stop price has been reached or passed. It is a combination of a stop order and a limit order. These articles are for information and education purposes only.

Realtors closely watching Des Moines metro home sales
A new report released Wednesday by the Des Moines Area Association of REALTORS said a slight decrease in home sales in the Des Moines metro area in August.
The report shows 1,001 contracts were written in August and 1,061 contracts closed.
"It's too early to tell if the August numbers were just a temporary lull or if the tide is beginning to turn from a seller's market to something more balanced," said Scott Wendl, president of the Des Moines Area Association of REALTORS. "We saw a slight decrease in both contracts written and closed this past month. A one month slow down is hardly a trend, so we'll be watching the numbers next month to see which way the numbers fall."
The report shows the number of active listings rose slightly from July's 4,092 to August's 4,109.
"The good news for buyers is that inventory numbers are on the increase. That means more homes for them to chose from which, if the trend continues, might give them a little leverage when negotiating price," said Wendl.
The report shows 64 percent of metro homebuyers financed a home using conventional financing in August, while 14 percent used an FHA loan. Cash purchases made up 17 percent of the transactions, and 6 percent used alternative financing methods.

Just in case you think that Art Journaling is about creating beautiful pictures, I wanted to assure you that it is more about the process of expressing yourself — however that comes about. It is not about being pretty; it is about just opening up and letting what is inside come out. It may take the form of a scribble, a line, shapes, colors, textures . . . and the results can be healing.
In the May/June issue of Cloth Paper Scissors, Linda Edkins Wyatt talks about art journaling and how it helped her work with her panic attacks. She reports that she had fewer and fewer panic attacks and that they lessened in severity. I can well understand how this works. Some creativity every day, even a few minutes, can lessen my stress and calm me.
I would love to hear your stories.
Blessings! C.
PS. I love this magazine. It makes me smile and provides off-the-wall inspiration galore !

WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. (AP) — After four tumultuous weeks of governing, President Donald Trump is out of the White House doing what he loves best — campaigning.
Trump will hold a campaign rally at an airport hangar in central Florida on Saturday afternoon. The event in Melbourne comes as he seeks to regain his footing following a series of crises that have threatened his young administration.
For Trump, the rally offers an opportunity to recapture the energy of his upstart campaign and to connect with his supporters. Trump spokeswoman Sarah Huckabee Sanders said Trump wants to "speak directly to people across this county in an unfiltered way, in a way that doesn't have any bias."
Trump also plans to meet this weekend with potential candidates to replace ousted National Security Adviser Michael Flynn. Trump's first choice to replace Flynn — retired Vice Adm. Robert Harward — turned down the offer.
Trump plans to interview John Bolton, the former U.S. ambassador to the United Nations, and Army Lt. Gen. H.R. McMaster for the job, according to a White House official. The official said both meetings will take place over the weekend at Mar-a-Lago, the president's private club in Palm Beach.
Trump tweeted Saturday morning that he "will be having many meetings this weekend at The Southern White House."
The president had also expressed interest in former CIA Director David Petraeus, but another White House official said Saturday he was not a finalist for the position.
The officials were not authorized to discuss the interview process publicly and requested anonymity.
Petraeus, a retired four-star general, resigned as CIA director in 2012 and pleaded guilty to one misdemeanor charge of mishandling classified information relating to documents he had provided to his biographer, with whom he was having an affair.
Flynn resigned at Trump's request Monday after revelations that he misled Vice President Mike Pence about discussing sanctions with Russia's ambassador to the U.S. during the transition. Trump said in a news conference Thursday that he was disappointed by how Flynn had treated Pence, but did not believe Flynn had done anything wrong by having the conversations.
Trump also continued his rants against the news media Saturday, tweeting: "Don't believe the main stream (fake news) media. The White House is running VERY WELL. I inherited a MESS and am in the process of fixing it."
During an appearance Friday at a Boeing plant in South Carolina, Trump slipped back into his campaign's "America First" message with ease.
"America is going to start winning again, winning like never ever before," he said, as the company showed off its new 787-10 Dreamliner aircraft. "We're not going to let our country be taken advantage of anymore in any way, shape or form."
Big rowdy rallies were the hallmark of Trump's presidential campaign. He continued to do them, although with smaller crowds, throughout the early part of the transition, during what he called a "thank you" tour.
The event Saturday is being put on by Trump's campaign, rather than the White House. Asked if it was a rally for the 2020 election, Sanders called it "a campaign rally for America." Trump himself promoted his appearance on Twitter on Friday: "Looking forward to the Florida rally tomorrow. Big crowd expected!"
Since taking office, Trump has lurched from one problem to the next, including the botched rollout of his immigration order, struggles confirming his Cabinet picks and a near-constant stream of reports about strife within his administration.
Trump's reset effort started Thursday with a marathon press conference where he defended his administration and denounced the "criminal" leaks that took down his top national security adviser. He used the platform to complain about the political press and to brag that his administration was a "fine-tuned machine."

Portuguese India
The Portuguese explorer Vasco da Gama discovered the sea route to India in 1498, and thereafter Portugal built up a sizable colonial empire in Asia. While it was eventually eclipsed by other European powers, Portugal continued to rule Goa and the enclaves of Daman and Diu till 1961 - when these territories were liberated by the Indian armed forces. Thus, Portugal's colonial rule in India lasted longer than that of any other colonial power.
From 1668 to 1958, the Rupia was the currency of Portuguese territories. Under the Anglo-Portuguese treaty of 1878, coins for Portuguese territories in India were henceforth minted in the Calcutta mint of British India. The Una Rupia of Portuguese India was the same as 1 Indian Rupee. In 1958, the Rupia was replaced by the Escudo, at the rate of 1 Rupee = 6 Escudos. Decimal coinage was also adopted together with the Escudo.

Recycling is an essential part of reducing the impact we have on our environment. Forty years ago, the recycling challenge was about getting people and businesses to embrace a new way of discarding waste: bundling newspapers, sorting plastics and glass, and resisting the old habit of throwing all our waste in the garbage. Today, with evolving waste streams, single-stream collection methods and advanced processing systems, recycling has become more complex. Recycling the right materials in the right way really does matter, but it doesn't always happen: it's estimated that 25 percent of materials put in recycling bins are not actually recyclable.
As the recycling landscape has evolved in recent years and become more challenging for consumers, we are working to educate people about the benefits not only of recycling, but also recycling properly. Our Recycle Often. Recycle Right.® campaign helps consumers understand what can and cannot be recycled.
A key feature of the Recycle Often. Recycle Right. campaign is a toolkit that includes brochures, posters, ads, radio clips, blog posts, videos and more, used to spread the message. In addition, the toolkit provides K-12 curricula with supporting national science standards and is available to visitors to the campaign's microsite. We launched a new version of the campaign website in 2017 to provide customers with more updates and more engaging, interactive and motivational resources to help them make the right recycling choices.
Our Recycle Often. Recycle Right.® campaign is national in scope and joins partners for recycling education such as The Recycling Partnership, of which we're a funding partner, AMERIPEN, the National Waste & Recycling Association and others. We work hard to make these education programs come alive locally. Many of our sites across North America host educational activities, programs, community events and facility open houses to inform and educate people about better managing waste. For example, our team in Kansas City partnered with Bridging the Gap (a local nonprofit) and a Keep America Beautiful chapter to put together a Facebook Live broadcast on America Recycles Day that offered viewers practical recycling tips plus a behind-the-scenes look at the Kansas City recycling facility.
We also use our social media channels to educate people about recycling through our #Recycling101 campaign, in addition to other sustainability information. In 2017, we posted more than 270 messages about sustainability and recycling education on social media, reaching approximately 8.5 million people.
Multicultural Outreach
Our own workforce speaks multiple languages (our employee newsletter goes out in English, Spanish and French), so it's no surprise that the diverse communities we serve would benefit from receiving information in their own language, too. We offer Spanish-language resources on our Recycle Often. Recycle Right.® website, and our municipal partners often provide translated versions of local recycling guidelines on their websites as well.
Here are some other ways we engage with multicultural communities about recycling:
- One of our recent Think Green Grants went to the Vietnamese American Community Center of the East Bay in Oakland, California. The center wanted to help Vietnamese restaurants and grocery stores incorporate compost collection services to avoid fees and penalties regarding new and unfamiliar composting rules and regulations. The grant went toward translating an English ad about composting requirements into Vietnamese and training staff and volunteers about the recycling ordinance so they could help over 30 local businesses make informed decisions about compliance.
- In Southern California, our team employs integrated outreach efforts to make recycling messages relatable to Spanish speaking communities. One emphasis of our recent engagement includes the development of localized videos and social media content inviting Latino communities to join our efforts to further sustainability through reducing and reusing and recycling right.
- In 2017, our Washington state team also implemented a recycling education pilot and campaign aimed at Spanish-speakers in Snohomish County. The campaign educated residents about recycling and tested the effectiveness of texting, TV and radio ads, direct mail and door-to-door outreach. Using the information learned from this pilot, Waste Management developed a new education campaign geared toward the Spanish-speaking community. The "Odes to Recycling" campaign is inspired by the work of Pablo Neruda and his odes to everyday elements, paying homage to recyclable plastics, paper and cans that can be reborn for the benefit of the planet and future generations. Based on the importance the community places on recycling and the environment, odes are a culturally significant way to share recycling best practices for priority materials. In addition, we launched a new bilingual English/Spanish storytelling program that targets multicultural communities within schools. The hands-on, visual and interactive nature of the program made it accessible for all students, regardless of native language. These efforts would go on to win our team a 2018 Recycler of the Year award for Multicultural Engagement from the Washington State Recycling Association.

15 And he said to the people, "Be ready for the third day; do not come near your wives."
16 Then it came to pass on the third day, in the morning, that there were thunderings and lightnings, and a thick cloud on the mountain; and the sound of the trumpet was very loud, so that all the people who were in the camp trembled. 17 And Moses brought the people out of the camp to meet with God, and they stood at the foot of the mountain.

World Bank: Malaysian workers better educated, but bosses have harder time hiring
Malaysian workers are more highly educated than their peers in Asean countries, but Malaysian firms also have a harder time finding employees with the right skills compared to their South-east Asian counterparts, a World Bank report has shown.
In the 15th edition of its biannual Malaysia Economic Monitor report, the World Bank noted that workers from Malaysian firms surveyed were, on average, more highly educated than their peers from some other countries, including high-income ones.
"In Malaysia, 81 per cent of surveyed employees had completed secondary education, compared to 76 per cent in high-income and OECD economies, 71 per cent in Asean economies and 66 per cent in China," the report titled "The Quest for Productivity Growth" and launched today said.
Malaysian manufacturing firms surveyed had the highest number of workers with secondary education when compared against the two other regions and China.
The average number of years of education of the production workers in the manufacturing sector were similar for all four regions and countries at between nine to 11, while the number of secondary educated workers in the services sector for all four was also similar, the report showed.
The report cited data from the World Bank Enterprise Surveys, which had seen 1,000 Malaysian firms of varying size, business sectors and locations being polled in 2015 to 2016, while data from Asean countries were collected at approximately the same time. For the Enterprise Surveys that is conducted every four to five years, the data from China is from 2012 and the date for the high-income and OECD countries are from the 2010 to 2015 period, the report said.
The countries in the Asean region used as a benchmark included Cambodia, Indonesia, Laos, Myanmar, the Philippines, Thailand and Vietnam; while the countries selected for the larger pool of the high-income and OECD category include Chile, Croatia, Czech Republic, Estonia, Israel, Latvia, Lithuania, Mexico, Poland, Slovak Republic, Slovenia, Sweden, Turkey and Uruguay.
The World Bank report said Malaysia may have a less dynamic labour market as Malaysian firms reported a lower vacancy rate compared to its Asean counterparts, with only 14 per cent of those surveyed having vacancies in the last two years while 25 per cent of the latter reported the same.
The World Bank's calculations for vacancy rate is obtained by dividing the number of vacancies available by the firm's size.
"Despite their lower vacancy rates, Malaysian firms were more likely to face difficulties in identifying workers with specific skills," the report said, adding that smaller local firms were more likely to have such difficulties than big firms with at least 10 per cent foreign ownership.
The report singled out three out of the seven skills that Malaysian firms had the most difficulty in finding suitable hires, with between 79 and 85 per cent saying it was either difficult or very difficult to identify workers with the required technical, managerial and foreign languages skills.
There was also a higher proportion of Malaysian firms finding it difficult to find workers with interpersonal and writing skills compared to Asean firms surveyed, while it was similar for those seeking workers with IT skills and slightly lesser Malaysian firms had trouble finding workers with the suitable work ethic.
The report noted firms that had reported hiring problems had lower productivity levels, with the hiring issues consisting of few or no applicants, lack of suitably-skilled applicants, applicants that did not like the firm's working conditions or were seeking a higher salary than the firm could offer.
Weighing in on the skill mismatches seen in Malaysia's labour market, the World Bank report said this was not caused by the government under-spending for education and training as relatively generous allocations have been made.
It pointed out that the Malaysian government had in 2013 spent RM54 billion on education and training, with over RM4.1 billion spent on post-secondary vocational and technical education.
The report said data from Malaysia's National Economic Return Survey suggests firms are resorting to training of their staff to overcome the skill deficits.
World Bank Malaysia lead economist Dr Julio E. Revilla, who was speaking at a panel discussion following the report's launch, noted that Malaysia is doing relatively well in the four drivers of productivity – education, innovation, efficiency and infrastructure, but noted that productivity levels somehow did not follow the country's performance in those areas.
"For instance, Malaysia spends significant amount of resources on education, the education level is probably not good enough in order to increase the level of productivity of some of the firms.
"But there are other countries with more important challenges on education somehow do better. So the question is probably not how much money is the government spending, but quality of how these resources are being utilised," he said.
Federation of Malaysian Manufacturers immediate past president Tan Sri Saw Choo Boon also said it was disturbing that only 19 per cent of Malaysian employers provide formal training for their workers – a relatively lower number when compared to firms in Asean, China, high-income and OECD countries.
"I think this is quite disturbing, because I have seen many companies, they have human resource policies, they say minimum two-day training per year. Two days is actually very little," he said during the panel discussion.
"I am not suggesting we force every company to spend two per cent of their budget on training but we need to work on this training, we need to incentivise companies to spend more time on training," he added, having noted that the finance sector was most well-trained due to Bank Negara Malaysia's requirement for two per cent of annual funds to be used for such purposes.

Holmes v. United States
|Holmes v. United States
|Decided May 27, 1968
|Full case name
|391 U.S. 936 (more)
88 S. Ct. 1835; 20 L. Ed. 2d 856; 1968 U.S. LEXIS 1576
|Certiorari denied.
|Court membership
|Case opinions
- For similarly titled cases, see United States v. Holmes (disambiguation).
Holmes v. United States, 391 U.S. 936 (1968),[1] was a case in which the Supreme Court of the United States denied a petition for writ of certiorari to a Jehovah's Witnesses minister who asked the Court to decide whether a draft of men into the Armed Forces in times of peace is constitutionally permissible. The minister argued that, in the absence of a declaration of war, a draft was not authorized and was equivalent to involuntary servitude.
Facts of the case
Albert H. Holmes was classified in August 1965 as a conscientious objector by his Selective Service Appeal Board. Section 6(j) of the Universal Military Training and Service Act of 1948 stated that a conscientious objector who, like petitioner, is also opposed to noncombatant military service, may in lieu of induction 'be ordered by his local board ... to perform ... such civilian work contributing to the maintenance of the national health, safety, or interest as the local board may deem appropriate. ...' Beginning in October 1965 Holmes exchanged a series of letters with his local board in which the Board explained to Holmes the types of civilian work available and Holmes asserted his religious scruples against serving the United States Government in any capacity, including civilian work programs. Holmes reiterated this position in a personal meeting with his local board.
On February 7, 1966, the Board sent Holmes an order to report on February 21 to an Illinois state hospital for civilian work assignment. However, on the day he was due to report, Holmes notified the Board that he refused to do so for religious reasons.
Prior history
Holmes was charged with willful failure to report as ordered, in violation of 12(a) of the Selective Service Act. At his nonjury trial Holmes moved for judgment of acquittal. That motion was denied, Holmes was convicted and sentenced to three years imprisonment, and the Court of Appeals affirmed, one judge dissenting.

Ideal product for my hairstyle. Looks and feels lovely.Report this review
I have been using Fudge hair shaper for years so was very disappointed when I opened this tub. There was no lovely caramel smell & the texture is so sticky it's just horrible to work through your hair. It should be a lovely light creamy texture. Maybe they've changed the formula. If so I will not be buying again. Shame.Report this review
The "Original"5
Glad I found this product on here. It is the original fudge - not the newer formula which is nowhere near as good - will continue to buy. Thanks.Report this review
still the best out there5
I've been using Fudge Hair Shaper for years now, I have very fine hair that is difficult to hold in any kind of style without a really good product. Some products will do that but also leave a greasy feel that feels awful after a while, so this has been an absolute god send for me. I've bought it online regularly now as its usually cheaper that buying from hairdressers but over the past year the market has been flooded by a batch of this product that is only meant for the U.S market (due to different laws on ingredients etc). The batch is no where near as good - it dies your hair and doesn't have that 'Fudge smell'. So finding the original and best version for sale on Look Fantastic was a big relief. I'll be buying from here from now on.Report this review
Fab stuff!5
Absolutely love this stuff! works so well and lasts ages - and smells nice too!Report this review

FaZe Clan pro Fortnite player Turner 'Tfue' Tenney has cleared up confusion over NFL skins being added to his account, after fellow streamer Ninja mistakenly believed he must have asked for them.
The confusion occurred after Tfue discovered the new NFL skins had been added to his 'Not_Tfue' account on Fortnite.
He bought his first ever skin since having his first account suspended after reaching a 100,000 Retweet goal, and explained why in a Twitter video on November 7, showing that NFL skins had been added to his account.
Weird flex but pic.twitter.com/AeR4xQ5gVh
— FaZe Tfue (@TTfue) November 7, 2018
Viewers in Ninja's stream brought up Tfue's rare skin purchase, he explained that he believed Epic must have asked for his permission, and Tfue must have agreed, to have the NFL skins added.
"I don't think Epic would have added the NFL skins into to Tfue's account without his permission. Epic very well knows that Tfue's all about being a 'hashtag no skin'. Epic is a very observant company".
In another clip, Ninja continues "No, I promise they did not think they were doing [Tfue] a favor, Tfue doesn't buy skins. There's not a single person at Epic that though to themselves 'hey, even though Tfue never buys skins, he'll probably really like it if we give him skins early.'"
Tfue watched these moments from Ninja on stream, and in an effort to clear up any confusion fans may have, immediately opened up his email inbox.
He then put on screen the email he received from Epic Games, offering him the option to have the skins early and promote them.
Tfue also showed his response, which despite stating his excitement at the offer, made clear he would decline unless he was the only creator being given early access, or else it would spoil his 'no skin' theme, which has become part of his brand at this point.
In his response to Epic, Tfue writes:
"I assume that other creators are being offered the same thing. While that's cool and all the default skin is a huge part of my brand. I don't want to diminish it or budge off of it unless there's potential for massive gain."
So, it appears that despite his response, Epic Games decided to add the skins to his account anyway, which effectively mean his account was no longer skin free and thus he bought a skin.

Number four in this new series of posts took a bit of pondering. I wanted to capture the importance of 'cutting out the competition'(weeding) and at the same time find an object to stand in for all those other tools of cultivation we gardeners use to loosen, till and maintain the soil; for seed sowing, planting, and incorporating stuff to benefit plants- manure and other organic matter as well as inorganic fertilisers. So I went for probably my favourite tool in this category, a hand fork.
The image above also shows my preferred model in this wide range of available hand forks; one with a shaped handle and relatively short, stainless steel prongs.
Apart from the effort to kneel or crouch (my back and knees aren't what they were), weeding with a hand fork (or by hand) must be one of the most satisfying of gardening jobs. Taking out shallowly rooted weeds and other unwanted growth around your preferred specimens, especially in sandy loam soil like we have here in Old School Garden, it is a relatively easy task too.
And once those rows of veg, stretches of mixed border or pots of spring bulbs have been cleared you can stand back and admire how you've improved the presentation of your plants; the finely worked, bare soil also provides a wonderful foil to all that fresh foliage and, later, the hues of the flowers and fruit.
And we mustn't forget those other cultivation and weeding tools; the forks, spades, rakes and tillers that all help to keep your soil healthy, alive and weed free.

India to host 2020 FIFA U-17 Women's World Cup
New Delhi: India will host the 2020 FIFA U-17 Women's World Cup, FIFA confirmed in a statement late on Friday.
The home team will have an added advantage and will also have a great opportunity to showcase their calibre on a global platform.
Spain is the defending champion while New Zealand and Canada finished third and fourth respectively. The development comes after India played hosts to FIFA U-17 men's World Cup.
The bidding process for the tournament had started last year. France had also expressed interest to host the tournament, but India turned out to be the country hosting it in 2020.
As the host country, India automatically qualifies for the 16-team showpiece event. The six continental qualifying tournaments are yet to begin.
Besides the Under-17 Women's World Cup, India had also expressed interest in hosting the Under-20 Women's WC.
The venues for the FIFA U-17 Women's WC has not been finalised but a scrutinised enquiry into stadiums in underway informed All India Football Federation General Secretary Kushal Das.

Tomorrow is the big day! School will be starting for all three kids. And are they excited? Well, Anna has had her backpack packed and ready to go for a week. Seriously.
Today we went to the school's Open House and met all their new teachers (Josh's preschool teacher is the same this year) and I am very happy with them...I have a feeling it will be a great school year for everyone. And just to give my kids a teensy-weensy little edge, here are the little bags I put together full of teacher treats from the Target $1 bins...pencils, notepads, stamps and a stamp pad. The darling "Back to School" button I found at buttondrawer.com and I LOVE that they don't have a minimum purchase.
Yes, my friends, that is called kissing up. And I'm not above it.

Membership in some online site is the ability to register through the dedicated web form. Forms may differ in the appearance and the collected information but, as a minimum, during the registration, a person submits actual e-mail belonging to him or her, a login & password. Registrations may have 1 step or several. If several, then the check of the submitted e-mail, entering some personal data, and more might be done. The specific registration rules are defined by the specific membership site.
A membership website builder is an online tool, which allows creating limited-access sites, information on some pages of which is closed for the general public – and opens only after the registration.
In some cases, the registration process may be combined with invitations from other members – submitting a code given to you by them during the process – so to avoid allowing unknown people to join your 'closed club', thus, keeping its restrictiveness further. Using any of the five below mentioned membership best website builder, it is possible to easily create your site with the area for registration, where you can do any kind of form that is allowed by this or that tool.
It will be possible to make such things like automated billing from accounts of subscribers, define the access roles to the pages (and the list of such pages, too), and manage the users through the admin zones (including the possibility to change rights and delete the registration).
This membership site platforms are a frequent choice in people for its general high power and several hundreds of templates, from which, it is easily possible to choose a few themes for the sites with the registration. You do not have to resort to any third-party solution in the question of how to create a membership website (but even if you decide to, there is always a way to integrate them through HTML code injection).

There are 7 plans in addition to 14 days of the try-and-buy period. $4.50 and $8.50 packages are limited in bandwidth and give insignificant storage. No limits for bandwidth start with $12.50 a month. Online stores offer 3 valuable options – from 17 to 35 USD a month – without the commission (you can start doing the trade in a VIP pack for $24.50 a month but there'll be a financial transaction commission).
Wild Apricot subscription website builder is a supreme tool, which is very pricey compared to the market. It STARTS with 40 dollars a month and ends with 600 dollars a month (considering the 10% discount when paid for a year, it'll be $6,480 a year – significantly pricey). All its plans are completely equal in the number of functionalities that they offer. What differs is the number of a possible threshold of registered users on the site (they are called here 'Contacts'):

uKit is not directly having a membership site software but you can integrate some third-party app to it using the HTML code injection feature – the modern way how many apps are integrated today. Open the source code of the page and insert the HTML code where it is said in the description of a 3rd-party app and, after saving and refreshing the page, you'll get forms of registration. As uKit membership builder itself can be integrated with databases and even with an online CRM system, it will be much easier for you to manage a host of the registered people.

What each of these plans gives to you:
You should consider your plans: what do you need a membership site for? How many users will there be, how many pages it will have, what type of site it will be? The initial criteria define the choice of a tool.
Further on, not only the membership site your builder must have but also it should be able to create the basic functionality that you're striving to besides the mentioned – like the online store or a sufficient number of informational pages or whatever your goal is. It is a necessary prerequisite to pick only 1 tool from the vastness of ones on the market – that will correspond to your needs and will cover with its umbrella all functions you need.

Oprah Wants Lawsuit Dismissed
Posted: Monday, November 17th, 2008 at 1:47 pm
Wealthy media mogul, Oprah Winfrey, has asked for a lawsuit that has been filed against her to be dismissed or at least be placed in arbitration. The lawsuit was filed by the former headmistress of her girl's school in South Africa, and accuses Winfrey of defamation.
Nomvuyo Mzamane, the former headmistress, claims that Winfrey made derogatory remarks following a sex abuse scandal at the school, the Oprah Winfrey Leadership Academy for Girls, which is near Johannesburg. Winfrey is said to have made comments about the trustworthiness of the former head, and allegedly said: "I thought she cared about the girls of South Africa."
Winfrey has denied making defamatory comments, and her lawyer said: "Read in context, these statements suggest no more than they actually say — that the abuse incident was used as an opportunity to bring new personnel into the school — and they cannot be twisted into anything defamatory."
Her lawyers also wrote: "The fact that her statements were reported from the press in South Africa around the world does not support, and rather contradicts, any contention that she targeted Pennsylvania in making her comments.

A credit card is a loan that grants the cardholder a line of credit to make purchases, without requiring any collateral. There are a lot of factors that have to be considered in selecting a credit card, and choosing the right card means finding one that is the most suitable for you.
The draw of most cards is the advantages and privileges they make available to the cardholder. But before you take a look at all those, remember that the credit card you choose must first be appropriate to your financial situation.
Your Two Primary Considerations in Getting a Credit Card
1. Purpose:
The first thing you have to think about is what you will be using the credit card for. Will you be utilizing it to pay your bills? Will it be for shopping online, or perhaps traveling abroad? Will it be for making large purchases? In relation to this – how much will you be spending using this card?
2. Payment:
It's important to think about how you will be paying for your credit card bill, and whether you can afford to make regular payments. You'll also have to decide whether you will be making monthly repayments or if you will be making several repayments spread through a certain period of time. If you prefer the former, you can benefit from the interest free period, and as so, the interest rates may not matter so much to you. If you choose the latter, you will definitely have to think about the interest, thus you need to find a card with lower interest rates.
Other Important Factors in Choosing a Credit Card
After you've got the first two considerations down pat, you may go ahead and take a look at the other aspects of the credit card.
1. Credit Limit.
The credit limit refers to the maximum amount you can spend using your credit card. This is determined by your bank, and it depends on your annual income.
2. Effective Interest Rate.
The EIR is the best peg for the cost of borrowing. Credit cards offered by the various banks in Singapore have different EIRs, with an average EIR of about 25%. It will generally be to your advantage to select one with a lower rate.
3. Annual Fee.
Certain cards will be charging you a fee every year. This will be added to your bill, on top of the amount you have to pay. Take note that an interest will be charged for this fee if you don't pay it in full.
4. Interest Free Period or Grace Period.
This varies between banks, but this is typically the period of time between your purchase and the date your payment is due, in which no interest is charged. However, cardholders who are unable to complete previous payments will not quality for the interest free period.
5. Minimum Repayment.
This refers to the minimum amount you will be required to pay if you aren't able to complete the monthly payment.
6. Introductory Interest Rates.
Your initial card payments may have a low interest and subsequent repayments cost more as the rate of interest increases. Certain cards may begin with no interest at all. As you do your research, be sure to take a look at how long the introductory period would last, and by how much the rate will rise after this period.
7. Other Fees and Charges.
Be sure to check what other fees and charges you will have to pay for. Look into penalties for things such as late payments, exceeding your credit limit, or using your card overseas.
8. Cashback.
The cashback is a nice perk that enables you to receive a refund or rebate when you pay using your card. This would depend on your spending as well as certain qualifications set in the credit agreement. The rebates you accumulate may even be credited to your account after a predetermined amount of time.
9. Rewards or loyalty points.
Banks offer rewards or loyalty programs to ensure that their cardholders remain with them. In these, you acquire points each time you use your card; the more you utilize your credit card, the more points you rack up. Depending on the credit agreement, the points you accumulate may be exchanged for gift items, vouchers, or air miles. Your points may also afford you a discount or enable you to pay for certain goods, based on promotions made available by partner establishments. These rewards points may or may not have an expiry date, so don't forget to check. You should also determine beforehand how and where you can use your points, and if you are likely to use them.
10. Other incentives and promotions
In selecting a credit card, it's necessary to factor in your spending, your ability to pay, as well as the benefits you're most interested in. Making the right choice can reap significant rewards through the years, so choosing a credit card may not be the kind of decision you should make flippantly. Of course, there are various kinds of cards offered by Singapore's different banks, so it would be best for you to get some expert advice on comparing credit cards Singapore. A trusted financial adviser will be considerably helpful in such an important process.
