Of course, every story can have several sides. When reviewing market projections based on economic indicators, investors need to understand all sides of the story to make a fair assessment regarding a particular indicator's validity. In some cases, the story told by major economic indicators might not be the best representation of what they are actually supposed to measure.
Gross domestic product (GDP), defined as the monetary value of all the finished goods and services produced within a country's borders, is commonly used as an indicator of a country's economic health as well as a gauge of the country's standard of living. Of course, this measure is not without its critics, who correctly point out that GDP does not take into account the so-called underground economy. All transactions that, for whatever reason, are not reported to the government are simply left out of the GDP calculation. For example, household production (the value of a stay-at-home spouse's labor) counts for nothing while the services of a maid add to GDP. Other examples of underground production include the time you spend working in your garden or fixing your car.
Some critics even argue that GDP is not intended to gauge a country's health, but merely serves as a measure of a nation's productivity. By this perspective, GDP has nothing to do with a country's standard of living. Economic production provides no insight into the literacy rate, life expectancy, access to health care, leisure time or general level of happiness among a given populace. Although there is a correlation between the factors, correlation does not necessarily imply causation. In fact, the Human Development Index used by the United Nations Development Program and the Gross National Happiness Index used by the tiny nation of Bhutan would do a far better job of differentiating between an oppressed nation of illiterate peasants toiling in sweatshops and a healthy, happy nation earning fair wages in a safe work environment than would GDP.
Gross national product (GNP) is a measure of a country's economic performance, or what its citizens produce (i.e., goods and services) and whether they produce these items within its borders. It includes GDP, plus any income earned by residents from oversees investments, minus income earned within the domestic economy by overseas residents.
Critics of GNP cite the same criticism for this measure as for GDP, in that it does not value certain activity and does not account for social wellbeing (poverty, etc.). Another strong criticism of GNP is that the metric might be almost irrelevant. Firstly, an individual can be a citizen of two different countries. Double counting her productivity would not be an accurate measure of total global production. Secondly, a nation has very little to gain from one of its citizens producing goods in another country. He might be taxed by his country of citizenship depending on the tax structure of the two nations, but the overall gains to productivity are absent.
The Consumer Price Index (CPI) is a series of measures that reflect the weighted average of prices of a basket of consumer goods and services. The goods are weighted in the index according to their share of total consumer expenditures. Changes in the CPI are used to assess inflation. While tracking inflation is a laudable goal that can help consumers and investors understand changes associated with the cost of living, understanding CPI is not a simple matter.
CPI for Urban Wager Earners and Clerical Workers (CPI-W): This measure does not include professional, managerial or technical workers, self-employed workers, retirees or the unemployed. This metric only factors in the inflation that a certain working sect of the population is exposed to. Clearly, this is not a particularly broad or inclusive index.
CPI for All Urban Consumers (CPI-U): This measure includes only members of urban households in certain tracked areas that have at least 2,500 inhabitants. Rural and military jobs are excluded. CPI-U is the broadest CPI measure in terms of capturing the majority of the nation, but it is still not applicable to the rural population.
Core CPI: This measure excludes food and energy due to their volatility. Of course, food and energy costs have a significant impact on one's spending budget and generally have a hard-to-avoid impact on consumers. Any measure that does not capture them is unlikely to reflect the experiences of the majority of the population.
The CPI measures are fraught with criticism. For one, the basket of goods is fairly static, changes infrequently and may not always reflect items that provide an accurate accounting of the consumer experience. For another, some critics argue that CPI overestimates inflation, while others argue the reverse.
The Producer Price Index (PPI) measures the average change in selling prices received by domestic producers of goods and services over time. In contrast to the COI, the PPI measures price changes from the seller's perspective.
Fortunately, PPI attracts relatively little criticism from modern economists and investors, although this was not always the case. PPI has two practical purposes in the business world. From the perspective of the consumer, it allows economists to gauge the future direction of CPI. When PPI is high, the costs will eventually be passed on to the buyers who will thus face inflationary pressures on goods bought. Additionally, from the perspective of the company, PPI allows cost of goods sold to be standardized and compared on historical levels.


Age of the child: Before starting with the treatment the age of the child should be taken into consideration. Most common cause of mouth breathing is the enlarged adenoids and the narrow nasal passage. With age there are chances that adenoids shrink and the nasal passage becomes wide and the child starts breathing through nose.
As discussed earlier before starting the treatment the cause and the degree of mouth breathing should be ascertained. That is whether the mouth breathing is obstructive or habitual and whether it is total mouth breathing or the partial.
Child is asked to do the deep breathing exercises. These are done in the morning and at night. The child is asked to inhale through the nose while taking the arms up . After holding the breath for few seconds the child should exhale through mouth and bring the arms down.
Patients with hypotonic upper lip stretch upper lip to maintain lip seal.
Button pull exercise– a button is taken and thread is passed through it. Patient is asked to place the button behind the lips and pull the thread while restricting it from being pulled out by using lip pressure.
Tug of war exercise--- involves two buttons, with one placed behind the lips and other is pulled by the other person.
If it is established that the cause of mouth breathing is not obstructive but if it is habitual then the best way is to stop the air to enter the mouth. For that a appliance is given called as oral screen or the thin rubber membrane is given. They are worn at night and they cover the outer surface of the teeth and the gums extending into the vestibules. Initially the holes are made in these so that the patient does not have difficulty in breathing.
Mouth breathing can interrupt sleep, cause orthodontic and facial deformities, and weaken lungs. Mouth breathing sometimes results from blocked nasal passages and other times is merely habitual. In both cases, treatments can be used to stop mouth breathing. You can not determine definitely the cause of your mouth breathing on your own, so to find out visit an ears, nose, and throat doctor.
Awais, Mouth breathing can occur because of enlarged adenoids, narrow nasal passage or can be obstructive or habitual. If nasal obstruction is cause of mouth breathing, then treatment of obstruction is done first. ENT check up can be done before start of treatment. If nasal obstruction is reason of mouth breathing, then you can visit an ENT specialist to get treatment done for it. Mouth breathing leads to misalignment of teeth, effect on facial form and increases the incidence of decay and will also affect the soft tissues of the mouth. If misalignment of teeth has occurred because of mouth breathing, then appliance therapy can be given to correct it.

Wizardry VII - Crusaders of the Dark Savant is included in this package:
Wizardry 6+7 Includes 2 games $ 1.50
One of the most difficult but rewarding Wizardry titles
You know this game means business, when even the simplest of actions is linked to a skill set. For instance, swimming, even if you won't be doing a lot of that in the game, this little element is still linked to a skill! And that's how it is for the entire game, so, you really have to work a lot to get to create a character that is really well produced, so that you will not be underpowered during your missions. At any rate, Wizardry VII - Crusaders of the Dark Savant, for all the difficulty it poses, and, granted, if you really have the time to put into it (tens of hours at the least!) will show you that even oldschool RPGs can be interesting in their story. Yeah, the basis is as classic as they get, but nonetheless, that doesn't stop you from actually enjoying it, on the contrary, it's the game's cornerstone, to sort of put it like that. Also, another thing that Wizardry VII - Crusaders of the Dark Savant does is give you skill points for actions that you actually perform, so, it's got a little of that The Elder Scrolls Morrowind thing going for itself, years before it was a common (and yet divisive amongst gamers, hehe!) way to resolve leveling up. So, yeah, it's a rather hard game, a complex one, but the story quite of deserves it. Also, be prepared to spend lots of time with it.
Not so easily forgettable
Wizardry: Crusaders of the Dark Savant is a 1992 fantasy role-playing game, following the sixth game of the series, which is another success full of mythology. Your choices and actions from the previous game will influence this installment's openings and locations where the action will take place. Beside this, you have the freedom to ally with the faction you were supposed to follow, or to become its enemy. Several things remained the same, as in Wizardry 6 Bane of the Cosmic Forge. These elements are: the races, the classes, the skills and the magic system. It will be a real pleasure to witness your character's advanced development throughout the game. You can create a team of 6 players, each with their abilities, professions and statistics. And these categories contain numerous treats, so the party's creation is quite customizable. Unlike other games, the character is now able to climb and swim, having a new skilful management: diplomacy (responsible for the way you engage in dialogues and various interactions). The graphics bring a favorable perception upon the general aspect of the game, the animations are decent, and the sounds aren't that enjoyable, so, you may turn them off. Overall, take this game, that won't be forgotten that easily.
7th Wizardry episode
Whilst picking up where Wizardry VI left off, this installment can easily be played on its own. The characters are free to explore a world filled with fiendish puzzles and devious adversaries. In gameplay it's quite a step up from its predecessor. W7, Crusaders of the Dark Savant possibly kept me entertained for longer than most of the other classics in the genre such as Baldur's Gate or Eye of the Beholder. The freedom you can get in the game is phenomenal, where each character can eventually get each profession, skill or class.

Today we're showing you more of our Park City Canyons Remodel! This cabin has warm, welcoming, mountain vibes without overdoing it. We've revealed the great room and kitchen, so we're excited for you to see the bedrooms, bathrooms, mudroom and laundry room of the main floor. Don't miss the webisode for a full video tour!
This project was for a full-service client, so we can't reveal all the sources. The ones we can share are tagged at the bottom of the post!
The home was built with a lot of heavy wood choices. We wanted to bring balance to the amazing beams and ceiling by painting the base, casing, and internal doors gray.
You can see the wood and stone detail is still very eye catching — by lightening the baseboards and casing with a light gray, your eyes are drawn to the beautiful natural details of the home without being overwhelmed.
We mixed metals with our silver Reed Single Sconce and brass mirrors to elevate the space and warm up this large master bathroom.
The Zane Side Table only has one drawer, but it's full of surface space! There's enough to comfortably style a big lamp, vase, storage box, and decorative books and clocks. You can't beat it's unique build either!
We wanted to keep the bathrooms inviting and fresh, while still sticking to a mountain home feel with earth tones and natural wood. Our Covington Shield Sconces worked great here to keep the balance.
We used our Kelly Mirror to give this bright bathroom contrast and added dimension with its black metal frame that extends out from the wall.


Schneider Electric hosts its annual automation conference at the New Orleans Marriott Hotel beginning Monday, May 23. The four-day conference includes more than 75 user-driven industry sessions, technical application workshops and accredited training courses. Each session is designed for customers, partners and OEMs to share their expertise across the company's control solutions, including its Foxboro, Modicon and PlantStruxure PES process automation systems, along with its telemetry and remote SCADA offerings and Triconex safety systems.
"By attending, not only will plant personnel across many industries learn to think differently about how to connect and apply their existing process automation systems, solutions and devices, they'll learn how to apply the power of real-time control to industrial variables, such as profitability, safety, environment, reliability and security, to drive higher levels of business performance," says Lynda Newell, vice president of marketing for the company's Process Automation business.
The keynote address will be presented by Sandy Vasser, senior advisor for instrumentation and electrical for ExxonMobil Production Company, who will discuss challenges within the automation industry and the need to create better business efficiencies through innovative technologies. Technology tracks range from control and automation solutions to technology trends, including control and safety upgrade strategies, taking advantage of virtualization, improving operator performance, implementing projects within budget and schedule, cybersecurity essentials and complying with safety and security standards. Safety systems customers will receive updates on safety, security and turbomachinery standards, as well as in-depth information about how the updates impact the way safety and security work hand-in-hand.


we went by minibus to Samarkand. the trip should take not longer than 4hours, with the stupid driver it took 6 hours. he permanently was engaged with using his radar detector, which never worked, of course. he drove slowly on the smoother asphalt and drove like a devil on the very bumpy street. we were really groggy after this trip.
we arrived in Samarkand at 5pm and found the B&B Hotel Furkat very easy. it is recommended by "Lonely Planet". first impression was very good. very friendly and beautiful location and rooms. 40 Dollars were not cheap but we thought it should be worth.
well, one our later, after putting all the bags into the room, bad surprise . no hot water, WiFi only for two ours in the evening. the description by Lonely Planet was quite different. we complained the problem. he was upset but offered us another apartement.
the next morning there was again no hot water and he told us lies: the gaz company sometimes cuts the supply during the day. this was real nonsense. during the day we checked several guesthouses and they had no problems with gaz at all. the most serious problem of this hotel was the breakfast. According to Lonely Planet it should have been a real declicious one. well it was simple, but first we had mouldy bread and the jam was a graveyard for ants. Sickly ! we left this dubious guesthouse after sightseeing and stayed in a new one, but much cheaper and with very hospitably owners.
the very positiv item on this day was meeting Shaxnoza. she runs a small shop in the Registan and is highly educated. she was so friendly and told us so many details about her country. we were glad to met her and we will keep in touch !
we went by taxi to the railwaystation to buy tickets to Taschkent. back at the hotel we played table tennis! how funny ! I estimate that ten years have passed by when I played .
in the afternoon we made our documentation.
we did a little bit sight-seeing and we met Joern from Germany and Rogerio from Brasil. very funny meeting im front of a monument. in the afternoon Astrid baked some pancakes. extremly yummy :-) . later we had some skype-sessions.
if I compare the mentality or attitudes with those of my country, there are two big differences.
the majority of the people of former countries of the USSR, where we cycled through, are not able to work efficient or have a joined-up thinking. if they should construct these very old builings again without foreign help they would fail.if you build a house in Germany you can have bad luck, no doubt, we have incompetent craftsmen, too, but it is not the rule. we see many houses, hotels, guesthouses or hostels and this grade of botch is really enourmous. the same with highways or freeways. they are a total desaster. now a German company (Papenburg) got the contract to rebuild several sections.
tough decision & deep disappointment!

(ii)that the petition is a post-announcement petition; and
(iii)that the authority propose to take no further action in relation to it;
(b)notifies the petition organiser (if any) that he may, within the period of two months beginning with the date of the notice, request the Secretary of State to consider the exercise of any power conferred on the Secretary of State by Part III of these Regulations.
(3) Where—
(a)a petition is received by an authority—
(i)after they have received a direction under regulation 18(1); and
(ii)before they have given notice of the date on which the referendum is to be held pursuant to the direction; and
(b)the constitutional change proposed in the petition is the same as that in relation to which the direction requires the referendum to be held,
the authority shall take no further action in relation to the petition and shall, as soon as reasonably practicable, comply with the requirements of paragraph (4).
(4) The authority shall notify the Secretary of State and the petition organiser (if any)—
(a)of the receipt of the petition; and
(b)that they propose to take no further action in relation to it because it proposes the same constitutional change as that in relation to which the referendum is to be held pursuant to the direction.
(b)the constitutional change proposed in the petition is not the same as that in relation to which the direction requires the referendum to be held,
the authority shall secure that the proper officer determines, in accordance with this Part, whether the petition is a valid petition.
(6) Where the proper officer determines that a petition of the description in paragraph (5) is not a valid petition, he shall comply with regulation 14(1) but, subject to that—
(a)the authority shall take no further action in relation to the petition; and
(b)for the purposes of regulation 21, the date of the direction shall be treated as the date of the proper officer's determination.
(7) For the purposes of paragraphs (3) to (5)—
(a)in relation to a direction under regulation 18(1) that requires an authority to hold a referendum on a form of executive that includes an elected mayor, a petition received subsequently by that authority in which the form of executive is not specified, shall be treated as proposing the same constitutional change; and
(b)other constitutional changes shall be treated as the same if they propose executive arrangements under which the executive takes the same form.
Amalgamation of petitions

Dear neighbor, Here is the 344th installment of Decoding Village Agendas to keep Croton residents informed of the actions of the Village Board at their meetings. I continue to add recipients to this email update on agendas so you may be receiving it for the first time. I enjoy getting your feedback and hope to continue to hear from you. If you do not wish to receive these periodic email updates from me, please reply to this email and your name will be removed from the email list.
Decoding Village Agendas – November 28, 2016
Work Session of the Village Board
7: 30 p.m.
(Open to Public and Televised)
Discussion about the request from Croton AYSO to store four soccer goals at Croton Landing Park. Croton AYSO currently has soccer goals that can be deconstructed after use, making them easier to store. Croton AYSO would like to purchase four higher quality goals that will take up more storage space and will need to be secured outside of their storage area. The Croton AYSO would like to acquire these goals for games and practices beginning in Spring of 2017. The new goals would be stored and secured in an area east of the playing field and adjacent to the fence separating the park and the railroad.
Reaffirming the Village's determination to uphold and comply with civil and human rights laws. The Board received a letter from 7 local religious leaders asking for an further affirmative statement of support for the goals that all board members committed to when taking their oath of office. This further commitment is requested in light of a current climate of prejudice, especially against Muslims. The full letter was also a full page ad in the past week's Gazette.
Discussion of the request by Hudson Nation Gold Club for the Village to accept the Declaration of Restrictive Covenant related to the club's proposed private driving range and teaching facility, which will relocate the wetlands area and nature trial. While the new driving range is in the Town of Cortlandt, its approval required the eliminating of an area of wetlands. In mitigation, the club is expanding the wetlands area located in their property in the Village. This was approved by the Water Control Commission and also the Army Corps of Engineers. The ACOE also required that a covenant or easement be granted to a third party to ensure environmental oversight of the expanded area.
Discussion about reducing the scope of the Elliott Way Improvement Project to include just the elevated walkway, culvert repair, and road repaving. The Village Board of Trustees rejected the two bids submitted for the original project in October that were far in excess of the Village's good faith cost estimate. The Board will look at reducing the scope of the project as originally conceived. Due to the high bid prices, the board will consider whether to reduce the project in the short term to just the area between the north end of Senasqua Park and the Yacht Club primarily by providing a separated walkway and repaving the road. If this is agreed upon, new bids will solicited.

Former Santos president left a posthumous letter criticising Neymar and Barcelona
Ligue 1 - PSGNow its content has come to light
06/05/2018 14:45 CEST
FRANCESC ADELANTADO
Neymar, the new Figo
After his death on August 16, 2016, Luis Alvaro de Oliveira Ribeiro, former president of Santos, left a posthumous letter wanting to make clear what was the real version of the transfer of Neymar to Barcelona, and showing his total rejection of the way in Neymar's father courted the Catalans when his son still had a contract in force with the Brazilian team.
De Oliveira Ribeiro gives his take on events, accusing the player and his environment of playing the final of the Club World Cup in 2011 knowing that his signing for Barcelona was already closed.
The letter, which was written on March 15, 2016, has been published in the newspaper 'Folha de Pernambuco.'
"Santos and I personally never received any information or document about the fact that before the end of the Club World Cup, Mr. Neymar, father of the player, had already committed his son to Barcelona and had received payments," commented the late former president.
"Santos played that final with a player who had received money from his rival, which influenced the performance of Neymar Junior thereafter at Santos.
"He was not the same playful player, who was superior to the rivals.
"I said that to the press and, unfortunately, it is a fact.
"His contract with Santos was in force and he had a duty to comply obligatorily."

Sweeps Week Lesbian Kiss
Beta Couple
Cheryl Cole's Downfall
Blaine Anderson
Finn-Santana Relationship
Glee – Sue asks Santana, Brittany and Quinn to slap themselves with chicken cutlet 2×11
The interactions between these two are sometimes playful and flirtatious, mainly on Santana's end, as she expresses romantic interest in him in several episodes. She shares plenty of animosity with him in later episodes for reasons Finn does not understand until he finds out that she is a lesbian. This prompts Finn to call her out in the hallway to get back at her. However, once Santana is outed on television in I Kissed a Girl , he tries to help her embrace her sexuality. In doing so, she bribes the girls by promising she would promote one of the girls to the head cheerleader position. Both girls approach Finn and ask him out on a date; however Santana appears to be a little more eager for the date than Brittany throughout the scenes. During their date, Santana makes a comment about how Finn is cute, but not hot. She suggests that Finn should ditch Rachel because she is a loser and instead go out with someone more popular and cool. She suggests that by going out with a pretty, popular person such as herself , Finn would instantly be a hot stud. This shows that Santana is actually interested in persuading Finn to date her.
This is a very adult themed piece of erotic fiction and should not be read by anyone under the age of eighteen or by anyone who does not like hardcore descriptions of sex and violence. The people written about here would never act like this in the real world Cheryl Cole heard the thump, thump, thump dimly as if she was hearing underwater. She groggily shook her head to try and clear the fog that seemed to envelope her but immediately regretted that as her head throbbed in pain from the movement.
She struggled to recall where she was and even what day it was and…oh god! She managed to lift her arm and touch the body on her right and spoke.
Thanksgiving is the eighth episode of Glee's fourth season and the seventy-fourth episode overall. It premiered on November 29, Mercedes, Mike, Puck, Quinn and Santana return to McKinley for the holidays. Kurt and Rachel however, decide to stay in New York for Thanksgiving to avoid drama.
One episode did a gender flipped version where Chuck kissed a guy. Two seasons later they did another one where Nate kissed a guy. Home and Away did this one as An Arc in , although, being a soap, they really don't care about ratings. The show managed to doubly subvert this in its second season – the hype in the lead-up to the last episode of February sweeps mostly focused on a straight kiss between a girl and a gay guy. Also, it's interesting to note that the very next episode after sweeps was the one where Santana gives her Anguished Declaration of Love to Brittany, and it didn't show them doing anything as obscene as they'd done in other episodes.

It's also worth noting that in the same season, Kurt and Blaine's first kiss something that the show had been leading up to for a while was not hinted at in the slightest in any of the promos for the episode, making this an inversion.

From the paper's abstract: Current conditions are right to enter into serious public discussions regarding the creation of a regulatory system for currently illegal drugs in Canada, with better control and reduced harms to be achieved by management in a tightly controlled system.
The removal of criminal penalties for drug possession for personal use, and placement of these currently illegal substances in a tight regulatory framework, could both aid implementation of programs to assist those engaged in harmful drug use, and reduce secondary unintended drug-related harms to society that spring from a failed criminal-prohibition approach.
Were you as surprised as I was to see Dianna Agron's Quinn and Naya Rivera's Santana get together in episode 14, "I Do"? I'm not gonna lie though, it was kind of awesome.
If you just want to talk about the show, stop by our Glee Forum. It also spawned a British singing contest called "Don't Stop Believing" yes, with the 'g' that lasted six episodes in summer , was won by the only team who sang Barbra Streisand , and has never been mentioned since. Please note that The Glee Project has its own page, so don't put examples from that here. Most notably was any Finn story lines occurring past season 4, since between season 4 and 5 Cory Monteith passed away.
The only time Sue calls Emma by her correct name is in the pilot. Sue appears to not do this purely out of malice. In Furt she claims that her repeated references to Kurt as "Lady" were because she thought it was his name – though she has referred to him by name on-screen in previous episodes. When Kurt points out that he takes offense to it, she allows him to choose a different nickname for her to call him. He chooses the name Porcelain, which she uses exclusively afterwards.
The implication is that the nicknames are a way for Sue to express contempt, respect or possibly even affection without losing her Drill Sergeant Nasty persona. Of course, only Sue knows which she's expressing at any given time.

The simplest possibility is that maybe Quinn and Santana lost touch despite their high school friendship and their hook up. Even Santana told Rachel at one point in Season 5 that she didn't really.

Season 2[ edit ] Blaine Anderson is introduced in the episode " Never Been Kissed " as the lead soloist of the Dalton Academy Warblers a cappella musical group. When Kurt asks if Blaine is gay, Blaine matter-of-factly says he is; Kurt tells Blaine that he is being bullied at school for being gay, and Blaine reveals that he too was harassed at his old school, so he transferred to Dalton Academy, which enforces a no-bullying policy.
Blaine enlists Kurt's help to serenade his crush Jeremiah Alexander Nifong , the assistant manager at a local Gap store. Jeremiah is subsequently fired and rebuffs Blaine. Kurt confesses his feelings, and Blaine tells Kurt that he cares for him, but is terrible at romance and does not want to risk damaging their friendship.

The MTB Tour was one tough & beautiful & fun event. Except for an injury to a teammate, it was a perfect day. We arrived very early because thousands of people participate in the Sea Otter Classic every year, from downhill competition to a 91 mile road ride plus activities for every family member. Most races start on the Laguna Saca raceway & then venture out from there; the Mtb Tour that most dmc team mates did went throughout Ft Ord; 23 miles with over 3000' of climbing. The hills were super tough but the flow tracks made them worth the effort. The Expo had over 1000 vendors, showing off their latest products & giving nice discounts.
Super fun saying hi to Neil from GMBN at Sea Otter today.
