Leadership ·Amazon
Dave Clark, Amazon's logistics czar who masterminded its massive expansion during the pandemic, just resigned. What will he do next?
BYColin Lodewick
June 3, 2022, 6:27 PM UTC
Amazon's logistics CEO Dave Clark announced his imminent departure from the company on Friday, ending a 23-year tenure as one of Jeff Bezos's top lieutenants.
Amazon CEO Andy Jassy has not yet announced a replacement.
"I expect to be ready with an update for you over the next few weeks," Jassy wrote in a blog post announcing the departure.
Clark is the second major tech CEO to announce an exit this week, following Meta's Sheryl Sandberg on Wednesday.
Clark's departure, effective July 1, was reported in a regulatory filing with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. Clark started at Amazon as an operations manager in Kentucky after completing business school, before moving up the ranks. He assumed his current role in 2020 after serving as senior vice president of worldwide operations for eight years.
Given his stance at the forefront of Amazon's entire operation, Clark's departure raises the question of where he goes from here, as well as what the departure says about the economy at large.
During the past several years, Clark's division saw turbocharged growth as warehouses and goods fulfillment exploded, especially during the first two years of the pandemic. This year, however, Amazon reported stalled growth in its first quarter. During the company's most recent earnings report, Jassy announced that the company is "no longer chasing physical or staffing capacity" in its fulfillment network.
That announcement matches a wider economic trend in the U.S. as the economy continues to recover from the pandemic.
"Pandemic-driven goods demand has boosted employment in service industries that fill goods demand rather than goods-producing industries," wrote Bank of America economists Aditya Bhave and Jeseo Park in a research report released Friday. Recently, consumers have begun to focus on services rather than goods, now that most pandemic restrictions have lifted.
Clark has not provided a hint as to where he's headed.
"For some time, I have discussed my intent to transition out of Amazon with my family and others close to me, but I wanted to ensure the teams were set up for success," he wrote in a letter posted to Twitter. "I feel confident that time is now."
Over the past decade, however, Amazon has become a veritable factory for C-suite executives. Last April, former Amazon senior vice president of web services Charlie Bell left after 23 years for an executive position at Microsoft. In 2018, vice president of Amazon Tickets David Glick left to become chief technology officer of logistics startup Flexe.
The next time you hear from Clark, it could be from somewhere big.

Disruption to bin collections - Tuesday 21 January
Roadworks and closures
Along with 17 other local authorities in Yorkshire and the Mayor of the Sheffield City Region, we're pursuing a devolution agreement with the Government, known as 'One Yorkshire'. #OneYorks
One Yorkshire
One Yorkshire is about transferring more powers from Whitehall to Yorkshire, giving local people much greater say over the issues that affect them, providing more investment in those areas that will make the biggest difference to the region's economy, businesses and people, and enabling Yorkshire to play its full part in driving growth and productivity after Brexit.
The benefits of One Yorkshire devolution for the region and for the UK could be huge. According to an independent economic study, the proposals could add up to £30billion to the region's economy, which equates to £5,400 per person per year over 20 years. It could also significantly increase exports from the region and see more investment from skills, innovation, research and development and inward investment.
A One Yorkshire devolution deal would see the creation of a directly elected Mayor, who would oversee the historic transfer of powers and funding to the region. This is one of Government's key requirements for devolution proposals, along with ensuring proposals refer to a coherent economic geography and have local support – both of which One Yorkshire has.
Devolution updates
In March 2018, a document setting out the vision for a One Yorkshire devolution agreement, including the creation of a Mayor of Yorkshire, was submitted to the Government.
In October 2018, Yorkshire leaders presented Government with an executive summary and full report on the economic rationale for a One Yorkshire devolution agreement.
We asked local people for their views on the right devolution deal for Barnsley.
We held a community poll in December, asking every registered voter in Barnsley to say which devolution proposal they would prefer Barnsley to pursue. The poll closed on 20 December.

What is devolution?
Government is offering places in England the chance to have more responsibility and control over decisions that affect their areas. It's not about taking away powers from councils. This would mean that more decisions about spending on public services would be made here, rather than by the Government in London. It could also help to strengthen our economy and increase the number of jobs.
What are the benefits of devolution for Barnsley?
Devolution will bring benefits to Barnsley in a number of key areas:
More money invested in our area
Better places to live, learn, work and do business
Better roads and public transport
More help for businesses to start and to grow
Better education and skills
More and better jobs.
Devolution will bring new powers and funding to Barnsley to improve infrastructure, transport, skills, housing and business growth. Working together with other local towns and cities, we can speak with one voice nationally and make better decisions about important economic growth.
Wider Yorkshire devolution
This is a partnership with the backing of at least 15 local authority areas. It's a much larger model that places it alongside the likes of Greater Manchester City Region and the West Midlands. The region has 5.3 million residents living and working in a geographical area seven times larger than Greater London, with an economy worth £110 billion per year.
This option hopes to extend the benefits of devolution by pursuing a wider model with Yorkshire. It intends to give Yorkshire a louder and more powerful voice to lobby Government on behalf of our economy and people.
This proposal would be much larger than the Sheffield City Region proposal. It would mean greater powers transferred from Government, although the precise scope of these powers has yet to be determined.
The Elected Mayor would be on a par with the recently Elected Mayors of Greater Manchester or the West Midlands. The mayor would be able to delegate some decision making powers to a more local level.
Although the precise amount has to be confirmed, this proposal is looking to unlock £3 billion over the next 30 years to spend in the region for:
This deal could be in place by 2020.
Sheffield City Region devolution
This is a partnership of nine local authority areas of which four – Sheffield, Rotherham, Barnsley and Doncaster – are full members.
This option will offer us £1.3 billion to spend over the next 30 years on jobs and businesses, as well as new powers and funding to improve infrastructure, transport, skills, housing and other drivers of business growth.
This proposal would involve giving certain powers over the following areas to an Elected Mayor:
19+ adult skills
Housing and planning
Business growth and investment
The Government is looking to progress Sheffield City Region devolution, with an election for a city region mayor set for May 2018, although giving specific powers to the Mayor will require the further consent of Sheffield, Rotherham, Barnsley and Doncaster Councils.

1. What's a community poll?
It's a public consultation when people are asked to give their opinion about an important question relating to the council and its services. In this case, the question will be on which devolution deal Barnsley should actively support.
2. Why will there be a community poll?
Your views on which devolution path you want to see delivered are important to us – a wider Yorkshire devolution deal or to continue with the devolution plan for the Sheffield City Region.
3. Why ask now?
Devolution is a pressing issue and one that has been in the news over the last few months. Barnsley Council wants to support the best deal for Barnsley people, its communities and business. To do this, a community poll would be a single way to gauge opinion. Everyone who is registered to vote in the borough will have the opportunity to indicate which option they would prefer the council to pursue.
4. How would the community poll be held?
Postal voting papers will be sent to the household of each registered voter. Votes can be completed securely online or returned via Freepost. There will be no polling stations.
The question the poll will ask is:
I would prefer Barnsley Council to pursue a Devolution proposal with:
(a) wider Yorkshire
(b) Sheffield City Region
4. When will the community poll be held?
Ballot packs will be posted on 1 December. Voting closes on 20 December. The results will be announced on 21 December 2017
5. How much will this cost?
Barnsley Council wants to keep the costs as low as possible which is why the vote is postal and online only. The Freepost return option is where the majority of the cost would come from as the council pays for postage. If everyone votes by Freepost, the poll will cost approximately £120,000. If more people vote online the cost will be significantly less.
Whilst this is a notable one-off cost, it represents a small proportion of Barnsley's annual gross budget of more than £590m, and is considered to be proportionate expenditure in order to gauge the views of local residents on this important issue.
6. Why is devolution so important?
Getting the right devolution deal is a priority for Barnsley. There's an opportunity to consider if the Sheffield City Region deal is the best devolution arrangement to serve Barnsley, its people and businesses and its ambition well.
Since bringing forward proposals for devolution in the Sheffield City Region in 2015, a new proposal for wider Yorkshire devolution has emerged. This is being actively considered in the county and the council wants to explore if local people want Barnsley to be part of that or not. Now is the time to gather essential feedback and to identify a preference for one deal or another. The community poll will give the council the express wish of Barnsley people to support one deal.
7. Hasn't Barnsley already backed wider Yorkshire devolution?
Elected councillors in Barnsley believe that a wider Yorkshire deal would be better for Barnsley and have expressed that view along with the mayor and councillors in Doncaster. This has also been supported by members of the Barnsley Economic Partnership, MPs and Trade Unions.
Barnsley Council, as the organisation delivering the poll, is impartial. Its job is to encourage people to vote. The community poll outcome will give absolute certainty and direction.
8. Will the council act on the proposed community poll result?
A community poll is not the same as an election and it is not legally binding. However the outcome would be fully considered by the council in determining next steps on devolution.

Q: xcode 5.1 beta ad hoc builds fail to upload to Test Flight Since upgrading to the beta release Xcode 5.1, I'm unable to submit ad hoc distribution builds to TestFlight because of the following error:

Same via the web client:

My distribution flow is the same as it was in 5.0, archive, sign with ad-hoc provisioning profile, upload to test flight. This is happening across multiple projects and teams which leads me to think it's a 5.1 issue.
Is anyone else seeing this? I'm in the process of reinstalling 5.0 to see if that helps.

A: 5.0 didn't help, but I narrowed down the issue to building archives with a physical device with iOS 7.1 beta installed as the target build target. Disconnecting the device and building against "iOS Device" results in valid builds for Ad Hoc distribution in both 5.0 and 5.1.

An engineering firm requested that Touchstone perform an examination of the failure of brazed fire hydrant pipe samples.
Prior to installation in a large housing development, fixtures for doors and lighting fixtures were evaluated to determine the most durable product from among several suppliers. Testing included UV/humidity exposure, resistance to residue from fingerprints, mechanical strength, and salt fog exposure.
An engineering firm requested that Touchstone perform an examination of the failure of brazed fire hydrant pipe samples. Four samples, cut at 90 degree angle intervals, around a circular section of a cast iron water pipe which supplies water to a fire hydrant were examined. Although mechanical damage could have shortened the life of the brass/cast iron interfaces the differences in appearance between the brass surface of the fresh fracture and the as-received fractures indicates a variation in brazing quality around the pipe.
Touchstone was contacted regarding a problem that involved the failure of a cast iron steam boiler assembly. TRL concluded that the failure seen in this boiler was most probably the result of an initial failure of at least six of the internal stay bolts and a portion of the corner of the casting. The final failure would have occurred when the remaining section thickness could no longer sustain the loading on the internal surface. The presence of stay bolts indicated some understanding of the forces present during use but the overall design did not appear to allow for the rather unique properties of gray cast iron. The final report stated that the use of internally cast-in-place staybolts was inadvisable because of the mechanical properties of gray cast iron, particularly, low elongation. There was no evidence that this design had been approved by the ASME section VIII committee.
The purpose of this investigation was to determine the cause of cracks which were seen to develop at the flame cut radius of a wide flange steel I-beams during hot-dip galvanizing. TRL was asked to examine one of the specimens to determine the cause of the cracking problem and to recommend a procedural change, which would eliminate the problem. The evaluation found the cracking problem was due to a combination of factors: residual stresses in steel beam which remained from manufacture, a brittle zone at the flame cut surface, and the effect of thermal shock which occurs as the I-beam is lowered into the 850 degree F zinc bath. It is also possible that liquid metal embrittlement may have had some effect here.

Who came up with the idea of infinity? Author Brian Clegg is giving a free talk on Wednesday May 1 on 'A Brief History of Infinity' in Lecture Theatre 5W 2.3.
It promises to be an exploration of one of the most mind-boggling features of maths and physics, uncovering the amazing paradoxes of this concept.
Where did the idea of infinity come from? Who were the people who defined and refined this paradoxical quantity? Why is infinity, a concept we can never experience or truly grasp, at the heart of science? How can some infinities be bigger than others? Mr Clegg's free talk seeks to explore these questions and introduce the people who devised and refined the concept.
After graduating in Natural Sciences from Cambridge, Brian Clegg gained an MA in operational research at Lancaster University and went on to British Airways, where he worked in operational research, IT and new technologies. He left in 1994 to set up his own company providing creativity training to businesses. He is now primarily an author, specializing in popular science with titles including Gravity, A Brief History of Infinity, Inflight Science and Build Your Own Time Machine. He has also written for many publications from The Times, The Observer and the Wall Street Journal to Physics World and Good Housekeeping. He is a Fellow of the Royal Society of Arts and is a popular speaker.
The talk, which is part of the summer season of GULP lectures, starts at 5.15pm in Lecture Theatre 5W 2.3 and finishes at 6.30pm.

Yunnan reports hand, foot and mouth disease outbreak
By Chris Horton in News on May 6, 2008
The Yunnan Provincial Hygiene Department announced that as of noon on Monday, 113 cases of hand, foot and mouth disease (HFMD) had been diagnosed in Yunnan, apparently caused by intestinal virus Enterovirus 71 (EV71). The announcement comes one day after Kunming announced that all Kindergarten students would be checked for the disease.
59 of the reported cases, more than half of the provincial total, were diagnosed in Kunming. Other affected areas include Chuxiong (19 cases), Yuxi (13), Baoshan (12), Dali (5), Honghe (3) and Zhaotong and Lincang, which reported one case each. No deaths have been reported.
Although highly contagious among children, HFMD has a low fatality rate and is expected to be contained well before the Olympics. With SARS still in people's minds and the Olympics around the corner, the Chinese government has shown a greater degree of openness and transparency at both the central and local levels than with previous outbreaks.
As Jeremy Goldkorn at Danwei puts it:
"Despite foreign cable news reports screaming about a 'deadly' virus, the virus is treatable and not that deadly. On the other hand, Xinhua and CCTV have not shied away from reporting about the disease, a welcome change from the days of SARS in 2003, when a disease outbreak was treated as something to be ashamed of and covered up."

Tinker Tailor founder Aslaug Magnusdottir talks about the particular challenges luxury fashion businesses face.
When Aslaug Magnusdottir cofounded the luxury fashion e-retailer Moda Operandi in 2010, the timing was perfect.
Even though Net a Porter—another full-price fashion e-retailer with a decade's head start on Moda—was gaining traction, Magnusdottir says the luxury customer was still being underserved online. Moda was all about closing the gap between closet and runway by offering designer pieces fast. "The customer was ready for that at the time," she says.
And Moda was enjoying a wave of change in the luxury e-commerce space. A decade ago, the luxury customer hardly shopped online at all. "She would go online to browse and research and then go into the store to buy," says Magnusdottir, who is originally from Iceland.
But then discount designer sites like Gilt and Rue La La emerged in 2007, opening up a platform for a whole new market to buy luxury items. "A lot of people made their first luxury fashion purchase, but at a discount. And that made it an easier purchasing decision," Magnusdottir says of the web.
With more shoppers suddenly comfortable buying high-end fashion items online, Moda was enjoying success as an e-commerce brand, and in 2013, Magnusdottir decided to leave her position as CEO to pursue another fashion startup idea: customized designer pieces.
In the spring of 2014, she launched Tinker Tailor, which allowed shoppers to customize existing designer fashions or build their own pieces from scratch using special rendering technology on the brand's website. It was aimed to be a couture experience for the e-commerce buyer.
But the slow process of gaining approval from designers on altered items and the expense of producing luxury items from scratch proved too strenuous for the year-old brand, which had raised seed funding. Tinker Tailor folded a few weeks ago.
"I think maybe we were a little bit early with the concept," says Magnusdottir, who isn't shy about the fact that there simply wasn't enough demand to support Tinker Tailor.
She now knows there's a difference between educating customers with a new product or service they didn't realize they needed, and starting up before that demand is there entirely.
"I think we felt that the market was a little bit further along than it probably was and that we could ramp up a little bit faster than we ended up being able to do," she says.
But that doesn't mean customization in fashion is a bad idea. She's confident that disruption in the manufacturing sector by 3-D printing and other efficiency-targeted technology will continue to make smaller-batch production and customization of designs more plausible. One day, customization will be viable for fashion at lower price points, too.
Tinker Tailor launched last year with two major arms of service: the alteration of select high-end garments from designer partners, and the made-to-order Tinker Tailor fashion line that allowed users to design pieces themselves online.
This goes against Startup 101: Start small and be focused.
She has a point. To streamline the styles Tinker Tailor offered to customize would be to cut out most of the high-concept, ultra-luxurious pieces that regularly sashay down designers' runways.
But Magnusdottir struggled to choose between two directions, saying that she considered both services highly relevant to fashion right now. Still, she might have launched one at first and then endeavored to launch the other once she hit mile markers of success.
In addition to having to handle the conception and production of all of its made-to-order pieces, Tinker Tailor was working with more than 100 designer labels to create customized alterations for the website at the height of its operations.
"That was also one of the things we found: Not all of them are yet well equipped to customize," Magnusdottir says.
The process meant coordinating specific customization options with designers, waiting for the designer to produce samples of these alterations, and then having to photograph the pieces and Photoshop other color options for each before loading them into the site. A selection of pieces from five to 10 designers' collections were featured as capsule collections on the website at a time. But the fact that customers still had to choose from a set menu of garments and alterations meant that shoppers still weren't really "customizing" their garments. They were shopping a list of special features. By the time Tinker Tailor closed, it was producing not only apparel but handbags, shoes, and other accessories.
With Moda Operandi, Magnusdottir and her cofounder Lauren Santo Domingo went straight for venture capital.
In the luxury business, she says, it's hard to stick to the business school mantra of a simple product.

About Us – How Old Are We?
By Brian Schenk, AHS Archivist*
Stephen F. Austin High School is the "oldest, continuing, tax-supported, locally controlled, public high school in Texas" making it one of the oldest in Texas but not the oldest west of the Mississippi! Sixty-six students, 39 girls and 27 boys attended our first day on September 12, 1881. "High School" was 9th and 10th grade until 1899. We went to school at the West Austin School, later called the Pease School. Our two classrooms were on the third floor of the building – one for boys and one for girls. The building, located between 11th and 12th Street on the west side of Rio Grande Avenue, burned in 1902 and was completely rebuilt.
The 1880s were a wonderful time in Austin. A new capitol building was built after the old Capitol burned in 1881. A horsecar line was created to run on unpaved Congress Avenue. The University of Texas was opened two years after Austin High. St Edwards University opened in 1886. The new Capitol Building opened in 1888. The first real bridge was built over the Colorado River in 1884, connecting "North Congress and South Congress" avenues. All after WE started!
From 1881 to 1895 – we think – Austin High was the only public high school in town. In 1895 – we think – 9th and 10 grades were added to the Robertson Hill School, allowing African American students – then segregated from white students – to get a high school education. For more than 50 years there were only these two high schools. Then in 1953 Travis and McCallum High Schools were built, and a new building was constructed for Anderson High – the African American school. In time, other high schools opened, including Lanier (1961), Johnston (1961), Reagan (1965) Crockett (1967), Anderson (1973), Bowie (1987), Garza (1997) and Akins (2001) were added. Westlake opened their high school in 1969. Before 1969, most Westlake kids were "transfer students' who went to Austin High by choice.
*Mr. Brian Schenk, was a teacher at Austin High School from 1975 to 1998, and started the Austin High School Archives (a treasure trove of local history) in 1981. He was the volunteer archivist until his recent retirement from those duties.

Inner structure of the planet Earth, consisting of several concentric spherical layers
The internal structure of the Earth is layered in spherical shells: an outer silicate solid crust, a highly viscous asthenosphere and mantle, a liquid outer core that is much less viscous than the mantle, and a solid inner core. Scientific understanding of the internal structure of the Earth is based on observations of topography and bathymetry, observations of rock in outcrop, samples brought to the surface from greater depths by volcanoes or volcanic activity, analysis of the seismic waves that pass through the Earth, measurements of the gravitational and magnetic fields of the Earth, and experiments with crystalline solids at pressures and temperatures characteristic of the Earth's deep interior.
The force exerted by Earth's gravity can be used to calculate its mass. Astronomers can also calculate Earth's mass by observing the motion of orbiting satellites. Earth's average density can be determined through gravimetric experiments, which have historically involved pendulums.
The mass of Earth is about .[1]

The structure of Earth can be defined in two ways: by mechanical properties such as rheology, or chemically. Mechanically, it can be divided into lithosphere, asthenosphere, mesospheric mantle, outer core, and the inner core. Chemically, Earth can be divided into the crust, upper mantle, lower mantle, outer core, and inner core. The geologic component layers of Earth are at the following depths below the surface:[3]
0-80 Lithosphere (locally varies between 5 and 200 km)
0-35 ... Crust (locally varies between 5 and 70 km)
35-2,890 Mantle
80-220 ... Asthenosphere
410-660 ... Transition zone
35-660 ... Upper mantle
660-2,890 ... Lower mantle
2,740-2,890 ... D? layer
2,890-5,150 Outer core
5,150-6,360 Inner core
The layering of Earth has been inferred indirectly using the time of travel of refracted and reflected seismic waves created by earthquakes. The core does not allow shear waves to pass through it, while the speed of travel (seismic velocity) is different in other layers. The changes in seismic velocity between different layers causes refraction owing to Snell's law, like light bending as it passes through a prism. Likewise, reflections are caused by a large increase in seismic velocity and are similar to light reflecting from a mirror.
The Earth's crust ranges from 5-70 kilometres (3.1-43.5 mi)[4] in depth and is the outermost layer.[5] The thin parts are the oceanic crust, which underlie the ocean basins (5-10 km) and are composed of dense (mafic) iron magnesium silicate igneous rocks, like basalt. The thicker crust is continental crust, which is less dense and composed of (felsic) sodium potassium aluminium silicate rocks, like granite. The rocks of the crust fall into two major categories - sial and sima (Suess, 1831-1914). It is estimated that sima starts about 11 km below the Conrad discontinuity (a second order discontinuity). The uppermost mantle together with the crust constitutes the lithosphere. The crust-mantle boundary occurs as two physically different events. First, there is a discontinuity in the seismic velocity, which is most commonly known as the Mohorovi?i? discontinuity or Moho. The cause of the Moho is thought to be a change in rock composition from rocks containing plagioclase feldspar (above) to rocks that contain no feldspars (below). Second, in oceanic crust, there is a chemical discontinuity between ultramafic cumulates and tectonized harzburgites, which has been observed from deep parts of the oceanic crust that have been obducted onto the continental crust and preserved as ophiolite sequences.
Many rocks now making up Earth's crust formed less than 100 million (1×108) years ago; however, the oldest known mineral grains are about 4.4 billion (4.4×109) years old, indicating that Earth has had a solid crust for at least 4.4 billion years.[6]

Earth's mantle extends to a depth of 2,890 km, making it the thickest layer of Earth.[7] The mantle is divided into upper and lower mantle,[8] which are separated by the transition zone.[9] The lowest part of the mantle next to the core-mantle boundary is known as the D? (pronounced dee-double-prime) layer.[10] The pressure at the bottom of the mantle is ?140 GPa (1.4 Matm).[11] The mantle is composed of silicate rocks that are rich in iron and magnesium relative to the overlying crust.[12] Although solid, the high temperatures within the mantle cause the silicate material to be sufficiently ductile that it can flow on very long timescales.[13]Convection of the mantle is expressed at the surface through the motions of tectonic plates. As there is intense and increasing pressure as one travels deeper into the mantle, the lower part of the mantle flows less easily than does the upper mantle (chemical changes within the mantle may also be important). The viscosity of the mantle ranges between 1021 and 1024Pa·s, depending on depth.[14] In comparison, the viscosity of water is approximately 10-3Pa·s and that of pitch is 107 Pa·s. The source of heat that drives plate tectonics is the primordial heat left over from the planet's formation as well as the radioactive decay of uranium, thorium, and potassium in Earth's crust and mantle.[15]
The average density of Earth is .[16] Because the average density of surface material is only around , we must conclude that denser materials exist within Earth's core. This result has been known since the Schiehallion experiment, performed in the 1770s. Charles Hutton in his 1778 report concluded that the mean density of the Earth must be about 95{\displaystyle {\tfrac {9}{5}}} that of surface rock, concluding that the interior of the Earth must be metallic. Hutton estimated this metallic portion to occupy some 65% of the diameter of the Earth.[17] Hutton's estimate on the mean density of the Earth was still about 20% too low, at . Henry Cavendish in his torsion balance experiment of 1798 found a value of , within 1% of the modern value.[18] Seismic measurements show that the core is divided into two parts, a "solid" inner core with a radius of ?1,220 km[19] and a liquid outer core extending beyond it to a radius of ?3,400 km. The densities are between 9,900 and 12,200 kg/m3 in the outer core and 12,600-13,000 kg/m3 in the inner core.[20]
The inner core was discovered in 1936 by Inge Lehmann and is generally believed to be composed primarily of iron and some nickel. Since this layer is able to transmit shear waves (transverse seismic waves), it must be solid. Experimental evidence has at times been critical of crystal models of the core.[21] Other experimental studies show a discrepancy under high pressure: diamond anvil (static) studies at core pressures yield melting temperatures that are approximately 2000 K below those from shock laser (dynamic) studies.[22][23] The laser studies create plasma,[24] and the results are suggestive that constraining inner core conditions will depend on whether the inner core is a solid or is a plasma with the density of a solid. This is an area of active research.
In early stages of Earth's formation about 4.6 billion years ago, melting would have caused denser substances to sink toward the center in a process called planetary differentiation (see also the iron catastrophe), while less-dense materials would have migrated to the crust. The core is thus believed to largely be composed of iron (80%), along with nickel and one or more light elements, whereas other dense elements, such as lead and uranium, either are too rare to be significant or tend to bind to lighter elements and thus remain in the crust (see felsic materials). Some have argued that the inner core may be in the form of a single iron crystal.[25][26]
Under laboratory conditions a sample of iron-nickel alloy was subjected to the corelike pressures by gripping it in a vise between 2 diamond tips (diamond anvil cell), and then heating to approximately 4000 K. The sample was observed with x-rays, and strongly supported the theory that Earth's inner core was made of giant crystals running north to south.[27][28]
The liquid outer core surrounds the inner core and is believed to be composed of iron mixed with nickel and trace amounts of lighter elements.
Recent speculation suggests that the innermost part of the core is enriched in gold, platinum and other siderophile elements.[29]
The matter that comprises Earth is connected in fundamental ways to matter of certain chondrite meteorites, and to matter of outer portion of the Sun.[30][31] There is good reason to believe that Earth is, in the main, like a chondrite meteorite. Beginning as early as 1940, scientists, including Francis Birch, built geophysics upon the premise that Earth is like ordinary chondrites, the most common type of meteorite observed impacting Earth, while totally ignoring another, albeit less abundant type, called enstatite chondrites. The principal difference between the two meteorite types is that enstatite chondrites formed under circumstances of extremely limited available oxygen, leading to certain normally oxyphile elements existing either partially or wholly in the alloy portion that corresponds to the core of Earth.
Dynamo theory suggests that convection in the outer core, combined with the Coriolis effect, gives rise to Earth's magnetic field. The solid inner core is too hot to hold a permanent magnetic field (see Curie temperature) but probably acts to stabilize the magnetic field generated by the liquid outer core. The average magnetic field strength in Earth's outer core is estimated to be 25 Gauss (2.5 mT), 50 times stronger than the magnetic field at the surface.[32][33]
Recent evidence has suggested that the inner core of Earth may rotate slightly faster than the rest of the planet;[34] however, more recent studies in 2011[which?] found this hypothesis to be inconclusive. Options remain for the core which may be oscillatory in nature or a chaotic system.[] In August 2005 a team of geophysicists announced in the journal Science that, according to their estimates, Earth's inner core rotates approximately 0.3 to 0.5 degrees per year faster relative to the rotation of the surface.[35][36]
The current scientific explanation for Earth's temperature gradient is a combination of heat left over from the planet's initial formation, decay of radioactive elements, and freezing of the inner core.

PH economy stronger if peso-dollar rate at 50:1

MANILA, Philippines - With exporters hurting from the strong peso, economists and consumer groups are pushing for the gradual depreciation of the peso to around P50 to the US dollar.
In a briefing on Foreign Exchange Management by multisectoral group Competitive Currency Forum, University of Asia and the Pacific (UA&P) economist Victor Abola said the government should allow the peso to depreciate by around 20 centavos every month.
Abola said this is needed because he believes that the peso is overvalued by 20% to 30%. Export groups said this has caused half of the country's small exporters to close shop.
"I believe that the peso is 20 to 30% overvalued. The peso should be around 50 to $1 to make the country competitive as India, whose exchange rate is at 55 to a $1," Abola explained.
Weaker peso, stronger growth
For a consumption-driven economy like that of the Philippines, a weaker currency would be able to drive economic growth. Abola said a 1% depreciation in the currency would translate into a 0.3 percentage point increase in gross domestic product (GDP).
This means that if GDP growth is at 3% and the peso depreciates by a percent, this would increase the actual growth rate of the economy to 3.3%.
Abola cited data provided by former dean of the University of the Philippines Raul Fabella during the forum showing India's depreciated currency allowed it to continue being competitive, particularly in the business process outsourcing business.
"I'm not saying depreciate it now. All I'm saying is gradual but you declare to the market that you want it to be competitive, the exchange rate," Abola said. "As Dr. Fabella has shown, we can afford to depreciate the currency with little inflationary effects, India cannot do it because it has a lot of debt." - Rappler.com
