For our July edition of Where to Eat, we turned to Austin's top foodies. From food editors and bloggers to premier local chefs, we consulted with some of the city's most frequent diners — the people who are the most tapped into the Austin restaurant scene — to determine which Austin spots are worth their salt.
It's the dead of summer, but that doesn't stop Austinites from enjoying a meal al fresco. Lenoir's Wine Garden is the perfect place to unwind after a long day offering small and shareable plates from the eatery's outdoor kitchen. Marla Camp, owner and publisher of Edible Austin, praises the relaxed destination for its lovely tree-shaded backyard and farm-to-table dishes. "I recommend the Portuguese vinho verde rosé with anything on their current summer menu." No reservations are required in the Wine Garden, and there's a killer happy hour Tuesday through Sunday from 8 to 10 pm.
For an interactive dining experience, head to far North Austin for Charm Korean BBQ. The restaurant opened earlier this year and serves authentic Korean dishes like bibimbob, noodles, and stews. A Taste of Koko blogger Jane Ko suggests Charm for the all-you-can-eat Korean barbecue, starting at $25, with its variety of meats, sides, kimchi soup, and more. And what's more fun than drinking soju and grilling your own meat at the table?
Drawing inspiration from the beaches of Mexico and California, Coast's menu ranges from elevated entrees (think scallops and pork belly) to laid-back fare like barbecue shrimp and fish tacos. The freshly opened seafood spot, helmed by Chef Ruston Richardson, is local food and travel writer Natalie Paramore's top pick for where to eat this summer. "I am so excited for more seafood in Austin and Coast is on the top of my list. I love the mix of Gulf Coast and Southern California flavors."
"Odd Duck is one of our top date night picks in Austin," say Couple in the Kitchen bloggers Karen Reinsberg and Gavin Booth. "Both the cocktails and food are inventive and the ingredients that they use are unique." Bryce Gilmore keeps things interesting at this stylish space so that it never feels stagnant or confined. "Every time we dine there it feels like a new experience because Odd Duck changes their menu constantly. As an added fun bonus, they also put on special theme dinners, which creates a one-of-a-kind dining experience. We had a blast at their brunch-faced dinner and can't wait for future events."
Musashino relocated to West Campus in early June and has not disappointed since. The sushi hot spot has a massive menu of innovative rolls, authentic specials, and handcrafted entrees. Juliet executive chef Jacob Weaver recently visited the new outpost and was blown away. "I don't know how, but their sushi has gotten even better in their new location. The traditional roll Shinko Maki with pickled burdock and daikon was the most surprising, and one of my favorite bites."

Things I learned from Director John J. Valadez' about The Latino Civil Rights Movement
Tags: Cesar Chavez, direcctor John Valadez, LA walkouts, Latino Americans, Sal Castro, spotlight
Director John Valadez is touring the Rio Grande Valley this coming month to host discussions and film screenings of his documentary "Prejudice and Pride" to be featured on PBS's Latino Americans series currently being broadcasted.
"I want to foster a dialogue about how we helped shape America," said a passionate Valadez during his presentation.
Today, Monday September 30,th I had the opportunity of interviewing him during his visit to the University of Texas at Brownsville. His documentary will air tomorrow evening through our local KMBH stations, and some excerpts can be found online like the links I have included below. I highly recommend attending his upcoming presentations at UTPA and STC, for you will have plenty of time for questions and a chance to meet this charismatic director. I do want to say that by the end of the screening most of us were in tears – it was a very moving experience that leads me to wonder; do we still have it in us?
These are some interesting facts that I learned today:
Director John J. Valadez
1- Latinos have our own Rosa Parks in Cesar Chavez who defied the segregation practiced at his local movie house in Delano, California, by sitting in the middle and not the sides where everyone who was not white sat. This happened in 1946; 9 years before Rosa Parks' historic protest.
2- Mexican Americans penned the term "Chicano" inspired on the name the Indian tribe living in what was to be the country of Mexico were called: Mexicas with a "sh" sounding x
3- "Mexican Americans were written out – we were not worthy to be included in the historic records of this country. We were only by standards of the Civil Rights Movement according to history books," Valadez stated.
4- Latino voter registration rights movements preceded the black movements
5- The Virgin of Guadalupe was present engraved on a banner during the "La Causa" (the cause led by Cesar Chavez) march that culminated at the State Capital in Sacramento, California, on Easter Sunday 1966.
6- After the "walkouts" of the late 1960s, and a revitalized Latino pride, Mexican American's college enrollment increased to a historical high. From 40 to 1,200 at UCLA only.
7- There are no Mexican Americans included in the Civil Rights Movement historical timeline even though they also contributed to the cause.
8- Dolores Huerta – a mother of seven – joined Chavez to champion the human rights of America's poorest workers.
9- Sal Castro, a teacher, gave Mexican American students a chance to a quality education when most were pursued towards technical degrees or predestined to drop out of high school. Castro was inspired by Dr. Martin Luther King and Cesar Chavez' leadership.
10- Speaking Spanish was prohibited and a beating was the punishment.
11- A "Charming Passivity" was how Mexican American students were described as having by non- Hispanic teachers of the time (late 1960s) and were not considered able to work with their minds but only with their hands so teachers did not push nor inspire them to pursue a higher education.
12- There was a bounty on Castro's head, and his name was on a list called the Yankee Crier. He eventually lost his teaching job after an arrest for organizing the walkouts. After many student protests, Castro was reinstated.
13- The high school walkouts involved 20 thousand students in 5 East LA high schools. It was the first major mass protest against racism by Mexican Americans in the history of the United States.
14- To Sal Castro these kids were the "Niños Heroes" because of their endurance to beatings, harassment and incarcerations – the FBI and the police were involved. They faced 66 years in prison. They were exonerated after 2 years.
15- The most heartbreaking thing of all was to learn that Sal Castro passed away earlier this year, and I had never paid attention to his tremendous passion for Latino pride.
I knew very little about this for I do not recall studying about it – I did know about Cesar Chavez, but most Latinos do – but not about the Latino involvement in the Civil Rights Movement. But it is never too late to learn something new.
The list could be much longer, but I would like to recommend attending Valadez' presentations this coming Wednesday and Thursday at UTPA, and next week's Monday and Tuesday at STC. Valadez could not provide me with exact times so please call or Google. He will also be presenting his second documentary War and Peace: WWII and the Post War Years.

The tide is turning for British retailers in the US
Paula Levitan, UK head of retail law at Arnold & Porter.
The failure of British and other European fashion brands in the US market used to perplex the industry. Until recently, notable exits from the US, such as those of Marks & Spencer and Laura Ashley, seemed to dampen enthusiasm among the companies I spoke to about entering this vast market. Although Tesco is not a fashion brand, its recent failure in the US was so high profile that it has affected confidence among some in the fashion industry.
However, the tide now seems to be turning. Asos says the US is its fastest-growing market; Topshop plans to expand beyond its current four US stores; and Boden says the US will overtake the UK as its biggest market soon.
This sea change is largely due to pioneering European brands developing strategies that have proved successful in penetrating the market. Earlier British entrants used to rush into the US; M&S, for example, acquired US clothing veteran Brooks Brothers outright in the 1980s.
British companies went in feet first because they perceived the US to be an easy, homogenous market: real estate was cheaper, employment laws more relaxed, there was a common language, it was possible to participate in group advertising and there was built-in consumer traffic in shopping malls. But there are differences between states, some of which are as significant as the differences between EU countries. Arguably Tesco's Fresh & Easy format might not have failed had it launched on the East Coast rather than the West Coast.
Recent successes reflect a more strategic approach. Topshop's strategy was to open only in big cities. Others, such as Boden and Jack Wills, have successfully emphasised their Britishness in branding, playing on the recent US television success of Downton Abbey and the London Olympics.
European brands should therefore be increasingly confident of success in the US.

Thank you and I agree there is a place to take for British Brands in the USA.
Some players have failed to react quickly enough to what the USA customers were expecting. Often they duplicated the product offering the Brand had in the UK.
As I focus on Open to Buy and stock optimisation, this is also an area where the Brand needs to look into to ensure they turn promptly goods into cash as well as bringing fresh goods very regularly.

Doncaster Rovers 0 Crystal Palace 2: Grant McCann hopes fans enticed by Rovers' cup run will return to back league battles
WITH a cash windfall of around £1m banked and the unwanted record of never having knocked out a team from a higher division since returning to the Football League in 2003 finally banished, Doncaster Rovers have enjoyed a fun ride in the FA Cup.
Sunday, 17th February 2019, 10:31 pm

Manager Grant McCann's side have won plenty of friends along the way, too, with an attacking approach that means Rovers proudly stand as the joint top scorers in this season's competition along with Manchester City.
Yesterday, however, a journey that had begun 98 days earlier at Chorley's Victory Park and promised a possible first quarter-final appearance in the club's history was ended by Crystal Palace.
First-half goals from Jeffrey Schlupp and Max Meyer did the damage for the Eagles in front of a sold-out Keepmoat Stadium.

The consolation for McCann was not only a battling performance from his side, but also the cash windfall that includes £125,000 for joining AFC Wimbledon, beaten on Saturday by Millwall, as the last representative from the third tier to go out.
"The Cup run has been great," said the Rovers chief. "You saw the crowd for this game and the momentum the Cup has generated for us.
"If we can get some more of those fans back to help us in the league then that is great. Financially it has also helped the club."
An illustration of what Doncaster were up against came via the expensive array of talent that could be found on Palace manager Roy Hodgson's bench.
Dismayed Doncaster Rovers stalwart James Coppinger heads for the dressing room at half-time after Crystal Palace had just scored their second goal (Picture: Richard Sellers/PA Wire).
The total transfer outlay for Christian Benteke, Cheikhou Kouyate et al came to £68m, a sum in stark contrast to the £250,000 or so that had been spent putting together the entire Rovers matchday squad of 18.
A fifth of that outlay brought James Coppinger north from Exeter City way back in 2004 and the hope ahead of Doncaster's biggest game in years was that the venerable veteran could inspire an upset to go with the third-round win at Championship outfit Preston North End.
The reality, however, was rather different with Palace cruising into the last eight on an afternoon when Rovers could not be faulted for endeavour, but were found to lack the composure to hurt the Premier League side.
This was particularly the case in a first half that saw McCann's men get themselves into promising positions only for a rushed pass or poor execution to prove their undoing.
Doncaster Rovers manager Grant McCann reacts as a chance is missed against Crystal Palace (Picture: Richard Sellers/PA Wire).
Even Coppinger, usually the coolest of heads amid the 100mph fare on offer in League One, was not immune to snatching at a pass when an opening arose.
Faced with the chance to play John Marquis down the left hand channel during the first half, the 38-year-old was too hasty and his delivery sufficiently over-hit for Scott Dann to be able to shepherd the ball comfortably behind.
Coppinger was far from alone in trying to force matters with Herbie Kane and Ben Whiteman also culpable.
The upshot was the League One outfit attempting far too many 'Hollywood'-style passes when a simple lay-off would have sufficed.
It was a shame, as Palace's defence did have several iffy moments in those opening 45 minutes – not least when trying to lay the ball back to goalkeeper Wayne Hennessey, often at the expense of a corner.
Rovers were better after half-time and had a good early chance when Alfie May headed over from a Paul Downing knockdown. Had May left the ball top scorer Marquis would surely have converted from two yards out.
Other than that, though, Palace rarely looked in trouble once two goals to the good, both moves having been examples of how keeping it simple can be the key to success.
The first on eight minutes saw Luka Milivojevic, outstanding throughout, intercept a loose Rovers pass before laying off the ball to Jeffrey Schlupp, five or so yards inside the Palace half.
He set off at a cracking pace and, after riding an attempted challenge from May, found his path to goal blocked by Downing on the edge of the home penalty area.
Schlupp did not even break stride before drilling a pinpoint shot into the bottom corner that Marko Marosi simply had no chance of keeping out.
Hodgson's men doubled their advantage on the stroke of half-time. Townsend exchanged passes with Milivojevic before heading across goal for Meyer to convert from close range.
Conceding so late on was a huge blow for Rovers, but there could be few complaints with the London club having created the much better chances of the opening 45 minutes.
Dann had headed over when well placed, and Downing had been fortunate not to give away a penalty when his outstretched hand cut out a drilled cross from Patrick van Aanholt.
"I was pleased with my group and the boys can go home with their heads held high," said McCann, the mastermind of a run that earned Rovers more than £500,000 in prize money along with another £250,000 for being shown live on BBC1 yesterday.
"The goal just before half-time took some wind out of the boys' sails. We were better second half and had a bit more authority. We were a bit too lacklustre in the first half."

Here's a modest proposal triggered by the recent debate among Bethany Town Council members over the appropriateness of spending what most people would consider a lot of money on two large Christmas trees: Vote on the trees before spending a cent on them. Hold a non-binding referendum of the sort Bethany Beach has held before and see if the voting public likes or dislikes the idea.
All I know about the issue is what I've read in Coastal Point, but I'll confess that I almost choked on my morning bagel when I read that the Town Council would consider at its March 20 meeting a proposal to spend $40,000 for two large outdoor holiday trees for the town.
When the smoke cleared, the Council approved a compromise measure reducing the Christmas tree expenditure to $22,000. Bethany Mayor Jack Gordon opposed the larger amount as unneeded and inappropriate, branding it "a frivolous expense." But other Council members cited the importance of holiday decorations and of supporting the business community.
Councilman Bruce Frye reportedly proposed the $22,000 compromise, which Gordon also opposed but which carried on "a split vote" after the Council voted unanimously to strike the $40,000 figure.
So, one person's business-friendly holiday season enhancement is another's frivolous expense. I'm with Mayor Gordon in the frivolous expenditure column, but a majority of the Council felt otherwise. I wonder which side of the argument most Bethany voters would favor.
Mayor Gordon noted that the Christmas tree proposal appeared in a budget that increases parking fees and comes as the Town is evaluating ways to fund a storm emergency relief fund. Indeed, it was not long ago that the Bethany Beach Council kicked around the idea of taking over a beach umbrella operation that has been a part of the Bethany landscape for decades as a well-regarded privately-owned and operated enterprise. That idea, forwarded as a way to build a storm emergency relief fund, sunk, at least for now, under the weight of popular opposition.
Why not take the public's pulse on the desirability of spending $22,000 for two large Christmas trees?
Editor's note: The following letter is addressed to Ocean View voters, regarding the upcoming town council election.
She makes good, not bad choices.
She takes good care of me, feeds me, and cares for me.
She helps me do my homework when I don't understand.
She will make good decisions.
But if she gets chosen, she will understand if you need help.
We would like to extend our sincere thanks and appreciation to everyone who sent cards, flowers, food and texts and phone calls; also those who attended the visitation and funeral. My dad was loved by many and had a heart of gold.
Without any hesitation, my mother, Carol Bodine, is the best candidate for Town Council. Carol has had vast experience in community outreach and leadership. Carol epitomizes determination, fairness and compassion. Through these qualities she will be able to balance her present personal and professional responsibilities with undertaking the role of Town Council member.
My mother has played a very active role in the community throughout my entire life. A retired nurse, her dedication to her patients poured out onto her children and any community she was involved in. Carol has been active in the church in various outreach arenas; including taking on a Title 1 (special education) teaching position at St. Camillus Catholic School in Silver Spring, Md.
Carol values performing arts and its importance in any community. She has been singing with church and community choirs throughout her life. My mother has managed the Montgomery County Youth Symphony, as well as my personal string quartet, the Montgomery String Players, while I was in high school, and has supported Arena Stage and the Mead Center for the Performing Arts, for over 50 years. She worked tirelessly to incorporate the performing arts into the lives of young musicians and the community in Montgomery County, Md. for many years.
Carol has been a resident of Ocean View, Del., for several years and my decision to relocate to this area was largely with her encouragement. She has been an incredible help to me in raising all of my children, (evident by their admiration of love for my mother), but even more with helping me to manage the health of my daughter, who has Type 1 diabetes and epilepsy. Carol is loving, too, and goes out of her way to help many other children in our community, as well.
My mother's selflessness and philanthropy are highly commendable and inspiring. She has been one of my most important role models, and I have aspired to conduct my personal and professional life at a level befitting of her approval. Carol will be a wonderful addition to the Ocean View Town Council, and I look forward to supporting her in this next chapter of her life.
Carol Bodine is running for the Ocean View Town Council representing District 4, which includes Bear Trap, Wedgefield, Avon Park and Fairway Village.
We have known Carol for several years and have worked with her on a campaign. We know her as a tireless worker, always ready to do more than her share of what needs to be done. We know she will be an asset to the Town of Ocean View and represent her area well.
She supports and cares for Ocean View, and I am sure will always vote on the Town Council, for the good of our town. I encourage you to vote for Carol Bodine, a hard worker who really loves our Town, on April 11, 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. at town hall on West Avenue.

It will be difficult for Liverpool to recreate the Premier League dominance of Manchester United under the Sir Alex Ferguson era, Red Devils' boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has warned.
The United manager, while congratulating Jurgen Klopp and Liverpool on their first Premier League triumph in 30 years while also adding that it it hurts to see Liverpool lift the title.
He said: 'First of all, any team that wins the championship and a Premier League deserve it and deserve credit. It's a hard league to win, so well done to Jurgen and his players.
'Every time you see anyone else lift the trophy it hurts. I reckon that's the feeling everyone associated with Man United, players, supporters, we want to get back to winning ways and that's our challenge.'
United went 26 years without a league title before winning it 13 times in 20 years under Ferguson, and Solskajer doesn't expect Liverpool to dominate in the same way.
'The run of titles we won under Sir Alex isn't going be easy for anyone to emulate,' he added. 'Sir Alex was a master of staying at the top.
'Our challenge is to make sure we don't go 26 years until the next time we win it or more, we're going to do everything we can to shorten the distance or go past them.
Solskjaer has offered his congratulations to counterpart Jurgen Klopp for winning the league
'I don't think it's time to say how far we're behind. We are in a position now we have to improve. One, we have to get in the Champions League, higher up in the league, start challenging, that consistency and efficiency is a challenge.
'At our best we are very good, we have to do that whatever day it is – Saturday, Tuesday, Wednesday – do it again and again, that's the challenge for our players going forward.'
Solskjaer hopes to launch a new era of success at United by winning the FA Cup this season as he prepares to face Norwich City at Carrow Road on Saturday evening.
Aside from lifting the trophy twice as a player, the former United striker's personal highlight in the FA Cup was a fourth-round winner against Liverpool at Old Trafford in 1999.
'When I was a young boy back home, it was always the last game and climax of the season broadcast live on telly in Norway,' added the United boss.
'That goal against them was the best moment in the FA Cup for me except for when you walk up (to get the trophy in '99). That was a proud moment for me and my dad was in the stands. I lifted it twice and hopefully I get a chance to go there again.
'I'm not sure if the youngsters nowadays really understand how much it means but our players certainly realised.'

Continental Pet Relocation LLC does NOT offer services for relocating puppies. We do NOT sell puppies. We only work with existing family pets with a focus on international relocation.
HOW TO THESE PET SCAMS WORK ?
Internet Pet Scams are becoming more and more prevalent. These criminals often create fake websites and emails, copying legitimate company logos and company names. These criminals will post fake advertisements on the internet, typically Craigslist or Facebook advertising pets (usually puppies – Yorkies, Huskies and Bulldogs are common breeds) for sale. Most often these pets are offered at no cost, and only ask the buyer to pay for shipping or pet insurance. These scammers will ask you to wire the money via Western Union or Money Gram for shipping. This method of payment is not traceable. After you have sent the money, they will continue to extort money from you for things like health exam, health license, pet insurance, or a different travel crate. If you do not comply by sending more money, they will threaten you with adding charges for additional feeding and animal abandonment.
DO NOT SEND MONEY TO ANYONE VIA WESTERN UNION OR MONEY GRAM OR WALMART TO WALMART !!! This money can not be traced and can be collected anywhere in the world.
DOES THE ADVERTISEMENT SOUND TO GOOD TO BE TRUE ?
Then it probably is a SCAM ! First of all, there is no such thing as "pet insurance". These scammers will use every story to convince you that this is a legitimate transaction. They will lie and tell you anything to convince you that there is a puppy. They will send pictures of the pet (that does not exist) and copy company names. If you look closely, there are almost always misspellings in the emails and the company name. The company email they are attempting to copy is spelled differently and the contact phone numbers do not match..
PET RELOCATION COMPANIES CAN BE VERIFIED. If the scammer claims to be working with a pet courier or pet transporter, you can verify that these companies are legitimate by visiting www.IPATA.ORG.
2. Advertise the pet on Craigslist or Facebook.
3. The person won't allow you to meet with them in person and see the pet.
4. They are using a free email address such as Google, yahoo, outlook, Hotmail etc rather than a company email address.
5. They have frequent misspellings in their correspondence and ask you to pay for things that don't exist such as pet insurance.
6. Ask you to wire the money via Western Union or Money Gram. There is no way to track this method of payment.
Do not look for pets for sale on community posting sites such Craigslist that is not local to you. Often times, they start out saying they are local, then change the story to say that the pet is now in a different location. Use local resources such as the humane society, rescue organizations or PetFinders. If you feel like you are dealing with someone legitimate, verify their company by looking for their official website and contacting the owner of the company to verify if they are involved in any relocation of this pet.
If you do find a legitimate pet that you need help relocating, please visit our site Continental Pet Relocation and complete the REQUEST A QUOTE form.
We would be happy to help you relocate your new family member ! We are a legitimate pet relocation and pet shipping company. We DO NOT sell puppies and we rarely ship puppies unless working with a reputable breeder.

CARI Captures Issue 502: ASEAN Manufacturing conditions picked up in April 2021
Home / News & Views / CARI Captures Issue 502: ASEAN Manufacturing conditions picked up in April 2021
ASEAN manufacturing conditions picked up in April 2021
(5 May 2021) ASEAN manufacturing conditions improved at a noticeably quicker rate during April and one that was the fastest since July 2014, according to the latest IHS Markit Purchasing Managers' Index (PMI™) data. The headline PMI posted above the neutral 50.0 mark for the second month running, rising from 50.8 in March to 51.9 in April, signalling the fastest improvement in the health of the ASEAN manufacturing sector since July 2014 and one that was moderate overall. Across the seven constituent nations, Vietnam saw the strongest growth. The headline PMI for Vietnam hit a near two-and-a-half-year high of 54.7 and signalled a sharp rate of expansion. Following closely behind was Indonesia, where the PMI hit a record high (since early-2011) of 54.6, and likewise pointed to a marked improvement in overall manufacturing conditions. Growth was also recorded in Malaysia, where the headline index climbed above the neutral 50.0 mark for the first time in ten months. Thailand likewise saw a return to expansion during April. The headline PMI (50.7) was indicative of only a mild rate of growth. Elsewhere, both Singapore and the Philippines registered renewed contractions during April. For the former, the headline index (49.5) signalled the first deterioration in conditions since last September, but only a fractional one. In the Philippines, the contraction was the first in four months and, though marginal, was the fastest since October 2020 (index at 49.0). Finally, Myanmar again registered the steepest downturn of the seven monitored nations, as ongoing factory closures amid political instability continued to heavily impact the manufacturing sector. The PMI did rise to a three-month high of 33.0 but was nonetheless indicative of a substantial contraction.p;
Increasing demand for environmental services in ASEAN opens opportunities for international trade in environmental services, says the ASEAN-Japan Centre
The ASEAN region is seeing an increase in the demand for environmental services due to rapid population growth and urbanization, including waste and wastewater management, air pollution and climate change mitigation, according to the study by the ASEAN-Japan Centre, Promoting Services Trade in ASEAN: Trade in Environmental Services, published on 6 May 2021. According to the report, due to the public nature of environmental services provision, the main types of trade liberalization in environmental services, like any other services trade, are service market access and national treatment; while licensing and approval procedures are the most prevalent regulatory measures as these processes can be discretionary in some countries. Important emerging issues related to this include the import of plastic waste by several ASEAN states and the increasing marine plastic debris problem. The paper recommends that freer trade reduce the cost of environmental services and help firms access cheaper or more advanced technology. Considering the public good nature of environmental services, the paper recommends ASEAN states to further delineate the commitments/activities that fall under environmental services, to focus on adapting to emerging new environmental situations as a region, and to include environmental services in provisions in regional trade agreements, which is not the case for the recently concluded Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership (RCEP).
Indonesia aims for V-Shaped recovery after disappointing GDP in Quarter 1, 2021
(5 May 2021) Indonesia is setting its sights on a sharp turnaround starting this quarter as it assembles more stimulus programs to lift stubbornly weak domestic demand. GDP declined 0.74% in the first quarter from a year ago, the Indonesian statistics bureau said on 5 May 2021, worse than the median estimate of -0.65% in a Bloomberg survey of economists. Still, it represented an improvement from the 2.19% contraction in the final quarter of 2020. Southeast Asia's largest economy should return to growth this quarter as the government readies tax and sales measures to support the retail sector, Coordinating Minister for Economic Affairs Airlangga Hartarto said in a briefing. "The trend of economic recovery is toward positive growth," Hartarto said. "The curve is V-shaped, as seen in many other countries." According to Bloomberg, the Indonesian GDP is expected to expand 6.9%-7.8% in the second-quarter period, a pace that would be its fastest since 2008. The country's benchmark stock index pared the day's gains to 0.2% after the GDP data were released. The rupiah was little changed at 14,435 to the dollar.
KLCI succumbed to selling pressure, but higher crude palm oil prices despite Movement Control Order (MCO 3.0) concerns
(5-6 May 2021) The FBM KLCI extended losses for the fourth consecutive session today, as most of the key index's components succumbed to selling pressure amid news of the reimplementation of the Movement Control Order or MCO 3.0 in parts of Selangor, Johor Bahru and Kuala Lumpur. At 5 pm of 5 May 2021, the local benchmark index closed 12.58 points or 0.79% lower at 1,575.67. Market breadth was negative as losers surpassed gainers, at 810 vs 297 gainers, while 419 counters were unchanged. Total volume fell to 7.37 billion shares worth RM4.24 billion from 7.48 billion shares worth RM4.13 billion. In contrast, Bursa' Energy Index rose 1.14% to 907.89. The Telecommunication and Media Index was steady, closing 0.01 points higher at 715.42. The Malaysian crude palm oil (CPO) prices also climbed to a level near RM4,700 a tonne in morning trade on Bursa Malaysia on 6 May 2021 as prices of commodities including crude oil and copper strengthened on economic recovery bets despite lingering Covid-19 pandemic concerns. Globally, it was reported that Asian shares rose today and commodity prices held near multi-year highs as investors switched to cyclical amid hopes of a strong economic recovery.
Monde Nissin to raise US$1 billion in Philippines' biggest IPO
(6 May 2021) The producer of the Southeast Asian country's best-selling instant noodle brand Lucky Me! is selling 3.6 billion shares at 13.50 pesos (US$0.67) per share for its initial public offering, it said in a letter to the local stock exchange. That is lower than the 17.50 pesos (US$0.87) maximum price indicated in its IPO filing. At 48.6 billion pesos (US$1 billion), Monde Nissin's offering will be the biggest on record in the country. Monde Nissin's shares are expected to begin trading on June 7, according to an earlier prospectus. According to its website, Monde Nissin makes crackers, muffins and biscuits, and has a presence in more than 30 countries. Monde Nissin plans to use the IPO proceeds for purposes including loan repayment and general corporate use, according to an earlier filing.
Singapore Press Holdings (SPH) restructuring amid falling revenue sparks questions over future of journalism
(6 May 2021) The publisher of Singapore newspaper The Straits Times billed a plan on 6 May 2021 to spin off its media business into a non-profit entity, but observers are pessimistic that the move due to concerns that the move will alter the country's state of press freedom. Singapore Press Holdings (SPH) will transfer its media business into a not-for-profit entity amid the ongoing challenge of falling advertising revenue. The restructuring exercise involves transferring the entire media-related business of SPH to a newly incorporated wholly-owned subsidiary, SPH Media Holdings. Singapore Press Holdings (SPH), one of Asia's biggest media groups, said its new ownership structure would be similar to the likes of Britain's The Guardian and The Tampa Bay Times in the US, both of which are owned by non-profit entities. Local observers noted that organisations such as The Guardian, owned by the Scott Trust Limited, were able to preserve editorial independence through firewalls erected between funders and newsrooms. SPH has for decades enjoyed a near-monopoly in newspaper publication because of strict licensing rules. While it is publicly listed, state-linked entities hold management shares that are crucial to determining editorial appointments.
Bank of Thailand leaves rate at a record low, warns of Covid risk
(5 May 2021) The central bank left its key interest rate unchanged at a record low of 0.50% on Wednesday, preserving its limited ammunition as the economy struggles with the third wave of coronavirus infections. The Bank of Thailand's (BoT) Monetary Policy Committee voted unanimously to keep the one-day repurchase rate unchanged for an eighth straight meeting. "Economic growth is likely to sharply slow due to the third Covid-19 wave," the central bank said in a statement. Monetary policy will remain accommodative to support economic activity, the BoT said. The bank reiterated that the limited policy room should be preserved to be used at the most effective time.
ASEAN, China, Japan, South Korea
ASEAN plus China, Japan, South Korea vow to boost financial ties amid COVID-19 pandemic
(3 May 2021) In a joint statement issued after a virtual meeting on the sidelines of the Asian Development Bank's (ADB) annual meetings, Finance ministers and central bank governors from ASEAN, China, Japan and South Korea pledged to achieve inclusive recovery, preserve long-term fiscal sustainability and maintain financial stability. Responses to the coronavirus crisis, universal health coverage, climate change, high-quality infrastructure and debt transparency and sustainability in emerging Asia will top the agenda at the ADB gatherings, said Japan's finance minister, Taro Aso. China, Japan and South Korea said they would explore "new initiatives" to strengthen the regional financial safety net at the virtual meeting with the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN). The regional financial leaders also underscored their commitment to backing open and rules-based multilateral trade and investment in the region.
SOUTH KOREA, CHINA, VIETNAM
US hydrogen company Plug Power partnered with South Korea's SK Group, eyes China and Vietnam
(5 May 2021) U.S. hydrogen fuel cell maker Plug Power, which counts Walmart and Amazon as its clients, is planning to expand its businesses in China, Vietnam and South Korea, through a joint venture with conglomerate SK Group. Earlier this year, South Korea's SK made a US$1.6 billion investment in the Nasdaq-listed company. Through the joint venture, the two companies are planning to set up a factory in South Korea by 2023 to produce fuel cells and electrolyzers that extract "green hydrogen" from water using renewable energy. Such products would be used "especially in South Korea, but we also believe, based on SK's partnerships, in China and Vietnam," Andrew Marsh, president and CEO of Plug Power, told Nikkei Asia in a recent interview. Asian governments are starting to focus on the development of hydrogen as a green energy source. Particularly in South Korea and Japan, government commitments and public pressure to cut greenhouse gas emissions have led to a surge of interest in hydrogen, which does not emit carbon dioxide when burnt.
South Korea Earmarks US$700 Million for Climate and ICT Projects through co-financing with ADB, half to be used to co-finance projects under ASEAN Catalytic Green Finance Facility (ACGF)
(4 May 2021) The Asian Development Bank (ADB) and the Republic of Korea today signed a memorandum of understanding earmarking US$700 million in co-financing from the Republic of Korea for ADB sovereign development projects over the next 3 years. Deputy Prime Minister, Minister of Economy and Finance, and ADB Governor Hong Nam-Ki signed for the Republic of Korea, while President Masatsugu Asakawa signed for ADB. Half of the earmarked amount of US$350 million will co-finance projects through the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) Catalytic Green Finance Facility (ACGF), established in 2019 by ASEAN governments under the ASEAN Infrastructure Fund and managed by ADB. ACGF projects co-financed by the Republic of Korea will help governments in Southeast Asia implement infrastructure projects that promote environmental sustainability, including ocean health, and contribute to climate change goals.


A young magician's 'tricks compilation' recently went viral on social media.
The South African magician known simply as Wian (van den Berg), began studying the art of magic and illusions at a young age, which "means he basically just saw a magician on Ellen DeGeneres and Googled how the trick works," according to his Facebook bio.
Wian is an SA's Got Talent finalist, has millions of views online and he's also "an artist with extraordinary precision". He has performed around the world in places like Las Vegas, Los Angeles, London, and Dubai.
His most recent tricks compilation clocked in 14 million views on Facebook alone. In the video, Wian performs a whole bunch of tricks to the shock of people and onlookers alike.
"Wian, you are a WIZARD! Awesome," said one social media user on Facebook. "The South African Dynamo!" said another.
Wian is considered to be SA's "best sleight of hand magician".
He recently also posted a video clip where he performs for the Springbok squad.


There's a very clean 1995 BMW 840Ci with quite a few Dinan modifications including the Supercharger System currently for sale on BimmerForums. Its chassis number CC90292 and is shown to have about 94k miles on the odometer. The owner states that the car has been meticulously maintained by a Dinan certified BMW dealer.
The seller is asking for a reasonable $16,999 with other goodies included!
I am selling my Dinan Stage 2 Supercharged BMW E31 840i.
The original owner was meticulous and maintained his car in SoCal and then took it with him to the East Coast (philly). He had all the maintenance performed at his local BMW dealer including the Dinan additions. He kept a record of all maintenance to include even keeping the rear view mirror tag from each service.
What makes this 840i special?
400 Horse Power, 400 ftlbs of Torque!
-Interior is fantastic shape for 22 years old. Very little leather wear anywhere. Worst is a small area on the drivers side.
-Small spot of surface rust on front corner of drivers side door. Will most likely have this repaired soon.
All books and keys are accounted for. Everything works. This is a fantastic "drivers car" that hauls and is a cruise missile on the highway. Your probably never going to find another 840i with these additions, maintenance history and condition. You could not build an 840i like this for what I am asking. I would consider selling or removing certain parts for those that are interested. Price can be adjusted base on removal of modifications. For now, the Dinan parts will not be parted out.
Hi…how can I get the owners phone number???
Gents, I am the owner and below is my ad that has contact information.

Two years on from the album Box Of Chaos outshining its impressive predecessor The Lost Refuge, which had started the trend by eclipsing the band's debut Sick Note, UK punksters Healthy Junkies have again repeated the feat with their fourth album. Delirious Dream is a collection of tracks embracing the band's broadest kaleidoscope of flavours yet over a punk 'n' roll landscape; a 15 song strong release which is for sure their finest moment to date keeping expectations clueless and the imagination enthralled.
Recorded with Brian O'Shaughnessy and mastered by Pete Maher, Delirious Dream is the songwriting and sound of the band at its boldest yet most intricately woven. With the founding duo of vocalist Nina Courson and guitarist/vocalist Phil Honey-Jones tapping into their most imaginative depths yet alongside the rhythmic prowess of bassist Dave Whitmore and drummers Pumpy and Adam Lewis, Healthy Junkies have created a new magnet of sound which needs mere seconds to demand attention through album opener When All Is Said And Done.
Instantly the track is strolling eagerly through ears with a rich melodic hook amidst eager rhythmic bait, all the while keys adding their intimation. Courson's ever alluring vocals quickly join the mix, adding elegance and harmonic radiance to the earthier breath of the song. With drama soaking every note and syllable, theatre intensifying across the host of twists and turns making up the simply outstanding punk 'n' roll incitement, the track immediately sets the high creative bar and striking character of the release.
This Is Not A Suicide brings its own exceptional roar of sound and enterprise straight after. Dirtier and grumpier than its predecessor and driven by attitude fuelled riffs and senses biting rhythms, the track sets its own particular pinnacle within Delirious Dream. Nagging grooves and garage punk spicing also add their incitement to the bracing trespass before the even tempered rock 'n' roll of Juliet's Call saunters in. Like a gothic rock nurtured punk inspired collusion between Siouxsie and The Banshees and In Evil Hour, the track is pure virulence.
The band embraces more hard rock like hues for next up Johnny Demented, its raw sonic haze magnetically tempered by Coulson's angelic tones. The song did not quite raise the roof as its predecessors in appetite and the passions here yet from start to finish it is a full captivation raising the ante as its holler and breath erupt across its eventful body.
Through the infectiously tenacious croon of Some Kind Of Girl and Ghost Without A Soul with its shadow draped atmosphere, riveting sound and adventure abounds with unpredictability and rapacious enterprise while All Talk brews an emotive entanglement of old school punk and classic rock in its own individual recipe of temptation. All three tracks easily grip ears and appetite though the delicious punk instincts and pop flirtations of The Sound Of My Guitar outshine all. The track is Class-A addiction spurning late seventies kissed new wave/punk rock slavery as ripe with hooks and celebration as a festive holly bush.
The following Boy Or Girl is something akin to a meeting of early Blondie and The Photos and quite irresistible with its successor, Meet & Greet preyed on an already aroused hunger for what is on offer with its predacious escapade resembling a kind of X-Ray Spex/Spinnerette collusion as the band take a swipe at musical greed. It is simply another major highlight of the album echoed in success by the frisky indie/pop punk animation of This Condition with Honey-Jones leading and dueting on vocals.
The album's worst track is next and These Boots Are Made For Walking is nothing less than full pleasure as Healthy Junkies make the classic their own by giving it a predatory breath as classic rock guitars blaze before James Dean rumbles with old school punk 'n' roll lust and uncontainable ebullience.
The album concludes with the pair of Theft and Part 2. The first is a rebel rousing protagonist vivaciously prowling the senses before breaking into a similarly ravening rock 'n' roll canter with erupting psych rock bred flames while the second is its dark but incandescent underworld where physical and emotion elements of the tracks shimmer, smoulder, and burn.
Together they make for a fascinating conclusion to Delirious Dream, echoing its title despite their brooding volatility and showing there is so much more to the creative palette of Healthy Junkies, one they have still yet to fully explore.
We always feel a sense of excitement when a new encounter with Healthy Junkies comes along as they have always manage to outdo themselves so far; Delirious Dream is no exception; in fact it pretty much outshines most other punk/rock nurtured offerings around this year too.
Delirious Dream is out now via Banana Castle Records/Cargo Records UK across most online stores.

Northern Australia plans backed by science
1:23pm Aug 30, 2018
Northern Australia could become a multi-billion food producing region under a CSIRO plan which the federal government is determined to bring to life.
The research has identified 370,000 hectares suitable for agricultural crops in the north, making a significant addition to the two million hectares across the country on which crops currently stand.
The CSIRO estimates agricultural development on the land would create 15,000 jobs and generate $5.3 billion annually.

Northern Australia Minister Matt Canavan says the study, released on Thursday, backed a federal government push to make the region the nation's next great food bowl.
"We now need to pick that up and do the hard yards to take what is a vision, a concept, into a real-world project," Senator Canavan told reporters.
The land identified for crops is spread across three catchment areas in Queensland, the Northern Territory and Western Australia.

Aside from boosting agricultural exports, the new crops could help farmers in the regions during droughts, Senator Canavan said.

"Wouldn't it be great right now, to have a grain-producing area, a cotton seed-producing area, in far north Queensland to help and assist our farmers in central and northern Queensland?" he said.
The federal government will work with the states and territory to fund the infrastructure needed to support the irrigation, with Senator Canavan stressing the project would be a "generational effort".
"That will take years, but let's just stick at it and do our job for the people of northern Australia."
The report also identified 710,000 hectares of coastal land for aquaculture.
The government is bracing for opposition to the plan from people based in major cities with a "building nothing anywhere" philosophy, Senator Canavan said, but will urge them to listen to the science.
Agriculture Minister David Littleproud said the development could also be an opportunity to create jobs for some in indigenous communities.
"Our indigenous people have a deep understanding of the land and the water and this fits well with sustainable agriculture," he said in a statement.
Labor spokesman Jim Chalmers said it is more important than ever that Australia create an agricultural export industry in the north.
But he said people in the region are tired of hypothetical ideas and want to see action.
"People are sick of the talk, they're sick of the reports. They've been hearing this kind of stuff since Tony Abbott in 2013," he told Sky News.
Mr Chalmers said Labor is ready to make investments in the region should it win the next election, including a regional jobs plan.
