Library story times are getting well-deserved media attention for helping young children build early literacy skills and develop social skills.
"Forty strollers were double- and triple-parked on the main floor of the Fort Washington Library in Upper Manhattan. As another one came through the door, Velda Asbury waved toward a spot beside a book stack.
The Minneapolis Star Tribune told a similar story last month.
"In these tech-savvy times, it's easy to imagine that toddlers and preschoolers live in a world that no longer includes activities like visiting the library or having books read aloud to them.
"That's not the story, however, at Washington County Libraries.
"A growing number of libraries are opening earlier and holding special story times to cater to some little Minnesotans who like to read in their own way.
"Carver County and several other Minnesota libraries are piloting Sensitive Storytimes to accommodate children on the autism spectrum or with sensory processing disorders.
In Texas, librarians are also offering story time to children who are prone to sensory overload, according to the Dallas Morning News.
And here in Boston, enter the words "story time" in the search box of the Boston Public Library's calendar webpage, and you come up with toddler and preschool story times as well as films for preschoolers that are all held in the main library and in the neighborhood branches.
Story time is an old favorite with brand new appeal. Even in a world of video games, television, and e-readers, it's striking to see how important libraries and books are for helping toddlers and preschoolers develop social and emotional skills as well as a love of reading.

Law firm's charities of the year
Robert Camp and Sarah Stott (Co-operative Partnerships Fundraiser)
Three local charities are set to benefit from the fundraising efforts of a leading Cornish law firm, after being selected by its staff to become its charities of the year.
Children's Hospice South West (CHSW), Beth's Inspiration and Sands have been chosen as the charities of the year by Stephens Scown.
The charities were suggested by staff and came out top in a staff vote. Children's Hospice South West becomes Stephens Scown's firm-wide charity of the year.
The firm's Truro office voted to support neonatal death charity Sands and Beth's Inspiration was selected by Stephens Scown's St Austell staff. All three charities will benefit from a range of fundraising activities organised by Stephens Scown's staff throughout the firm's 2015/2016 financial year.
Stephens Scown's managing partner, Robert Camp, said: "These are incredible charities and I'm delighted that our staff have chosen to support them this year. I know our staff have some great ideas for fundraising and I look forward to getting involved myself throughout the year to help raise vital funds for these great organisations."

Drake's "Nothing Was The Same" Leaks!
Comments Off on Drake's "Nothing Was The Same" Leaks!
With a little over a week left until the official release date, I kind of expect Drake to switch it up on us to combat this leak. A few unreleased tracks, perhaps? None-the-less, I am loving this album as is. You can still pre-order Nothing Was The Same here.


Established since 1946, formerly known as the BNI Bank Negara Indonesia, was the first bank formed and owned by the Government of Indonesia. Bank Negara Indonesia began to circulate first official means of payment issued by the Government of Indonesia, the ORI or Oeang Republic of Indonesia, on the eve of October 30, 1946, just a few months since its formation. Until now, this day is commemorated as the Day of National Treasury, while the day of its establishment which falls on July 5, defined as the Day of National Bank.
Following the appointment of De Javsche Bank which is inherited from the Dutch Government as the Central Bank in 1949, the Government limit the role of Bank Negara Indonesia as a circulation bank or central bank. Bank Negara Indonesia and designated as a development bank, and then given the right to act as a foreign exchange bank, with direct access to foreign transactions.
In connection with the capital increase in 1955, the status of Bank Negara Indonesia converted into government-owned commercial banks. These changes underlie better service and a lever for the national business sector.
In line with the decision of its year of establishment as part of corporate identity, name of Bank Negara Indonesia 1946 from late 1968. This change makes the Bank Negara Indonesia is better known as 'BNI 46'. The use of nicknames that are easier to remember – 'Bank BNI' – set along with the change of corporate identity in 1988.
In 1992, BNI's legal status and name changed to PT Bank Negara Indonesia (Persero), while the decision to become a public company realized through an IPO in the stock market in 1996.
BNI's ability to adapt to changes and advances in environmental, socio-cultural and technological corporate identity is reflected through the continuous refinement from time to time. It's dedication and commitment to the improvement of its performance BNI continuously.
In 2004, an updated corporate identity began to be used to describe the prospects for a better future, after the success navigate the difficult times. The term 'Bank BNI' shortened to 'BNI', while the year of establishment – '46 '- used in the company's logo to reinforce national pride as the bank's first-born in the era of the Unitary Republic of Indonesia.
Depart from the spirit of struggle that is rooted in its history, BNI is committed to providing excellent service to the country, and always be the pride of the country.

Vol. 3, No. 11, 11/1/01.
Ideological scholarship: This is a cautionary tale for those who persist in the exercise of advocacy scholarship twisted to support an ideological belief. As the pace of events continues to accelerate during the 21st century, events will deal with such advocacy scholarship with increasing brutality. Events will not be kind to those who sell their intellectual souls for a mess of ideological pottage.
Two of the premier advocacy scholars of the last half of the 20th century were John Kenneth Galbraith and Lester C. Thurow. These academic luminaries intentionally twisted their scholarship to support their ideological predilections in favor of government management of major economic functions. They remained in determined denial concerning the obvious weaknesses of such government management. The stupidity of their substantial literary outputs has now been clearly proven by events, which have invariably refused to conform to their expectations.
Indeed, the levels of stupidity contained in their many books is probably (hopefully) unparalleled in the annals of the major academic institutions where they taught. It is staggering to realize that the best and brightest students went to Harvard and MIT to learn how the world works - and instead - at a substantial waste of time, effort and funds - were treated like acolytes to be indoctrinated in such obvious and absurd mythology.
A preternatural trust in government economic management: Competition between capitalism and socialism became a feature of intellectual discourse and the ideological foundation of the Cold War after WW II. Profit driven, market directed capitalism is not an utopian system and does not promise utopian results. It is merely - clearly - the best system for the production and distribution of goods and services. The economic freedom of capitalism provides a rich, creative, but messy brew which many intellectuals find disquieting. In their desire to find a better, kinder, more orderly way, they inevitably fall prey to concepts that would substitute government economic management for the management mechanisms of profit driven capitalist markets.
Many scholars turn a blind eye to the obvious inherent limitations of government management To sustain their ideology, they must turn a blind eye to the obvious inherent limitations of government management. This they often do with a broad brush writing style, influencing the credulous, but ultimately - inevitably - suffering from the perverse refusal of events to conform to their expectations.
? Harvard economics Prof. John Kenneth Galbraith's efforts to disparage capitalism and boost socialism produced a steady flow of absurdities that - accumulating over the course of about half a century - now fill entire library shelves. He pursued his ideological agenda with great intelligence and style, and an acerbic wit with which he unsparingly skewered his ideological rivals.
Humility is not one of his intellectual traits. Nor was he ever unduly disturbed that events persisted in refuting his logic and moving in the exact opposite direction of most of his predictions. Ultimately, he was forced to admit that it was the rivals he had disparaged who turned out to be right. Here are some samples of his typical absurdities.
Large corporations control their markets and need not respond to market signals.
? Contention: Large, vertically integrated and conglomerated corporations have decisive advantages that allow them to control sources of supply and, through advertising, to control their markets and eliminate uncertainty.
There are a select few - like GE - which has by keen and disciplined responsiveness to market signals been able to maintain entrepreneurial vigor in all its myriad profit centers. However, most large corporations have been forced by market pressures to out source their supplies and shed profit centers outside their core competencies. Outside the diamond industry, it is difficult to find any large corporations that have been able to control their markets in the manner envisioned by Galbraith.
Contention: "Technology and companion commitments of capital and time have forced the firm to emancipate itself from the uncertainties of the market."
Only those corporations that have been most responsive to market pressures and signals have since that time continued to prosper.
The high real interest rates of the 1980s discourage investment for improved economic performance and for housing construction. In the longer run, less efficient, less competitive industry, a shortage of housing, and homelessness, are (and have been) the inevitable result.
Corporate bureaucracies will grow relentlessly.
The ladder of upward mobility is now broken.
The military establishment, public and private, will continue on its own authority to resist substantial reduction.
American manufacturing industry and the economy generally will concede to superior economic performance of other nations, principally Japan, Germany and the other countries of the Pacific Rim.
Prediction: The high real interest rates of the 1980s, "discourage investment for improved economic performance and for housing construction. In the longer run, less efficient, less competitive industry, a shortage of housing, and homelessness, are (and have been) the inevitable result."
Why don't events work the way he expects them to? Could Galbraith actually be wrong in his understanding of capitalist economics? Somehow, those high real interest rates successfully reduced inflation rates in spite of vast budget deficits.
inexpensive apartments remained available wherever the market was not encumbered with rent controls or restrictive zoning and permitting laws.
Apparently, Galbraith doesn't understand the obvious fact that the only monetary way to move interest rates down is to push them up -- and the surest way to suffer from high interest rates is to push them down. In the end, the market ALWAYS wins - and always punishes those who push it around.
Contention: The corporate bureaucracy "is relentlessly dynamic in the multiplication of personnel." There is "an intrinsic dynamic acting to increase what, by definition, is called managerial personnel."
This contention was being proven wrong before the ink dried on his page proofs. The downsizing and restructuring movement of the 1990s was already well under way.
Parkinson's Law does indeed work - in both government and private bureaucracies - but there are never any market checks to limit or force the reversal of government bureaucratic growth. Contrary to Galbraith, the government appropriations system is simply nowhere near as effective as a check on overstaffing as the markets he persists in maligning.
Prediction: The "underclass" in inner cities is now permanent. The ladder of upward mobility is now broken. When this is realized, there will be riots in the streets again.
Scare tactics are a standard tactic for advocacy scholars. Here, he was trying to scare society into greater welfare expenditures, just when society was - correctly - about to move in the exact opposite direction. Upward mobility, of course, remains a spectacular feature of America's capitalist economic system, and continues to attract immigrants from around the world.
Prediction: "That the military establishment, public and private, will continue on its own authority [FUTURECASTS' emphasis] to claim a large share of its past financial support is not, however, seriously in doubt." The "military - industrial complex" problem will continue even after the elimination of the military threat.
The U.S. has ALWAYS disarmed after conflicts, and now is no different. Before the current crisis, defense outlays as a percent of GDP fell to pre-WW II levels - numerous defense contractors left the business - and preparedness levels in all but elite units were allowed to fall precipitously - in the face of a still dangerous world.
Prediction: Galbraith's "higher probability" forecast for the U.S. economy after 1992 was not extended depression or even extended recession, but "more gradual but more definitive stasis. This is already well under way as American manufacturing industry and the economy generally concede to superior economic performance of other nations, principally Japan, Germany and the other countries of the Pacific Rim. - - - [I]n the economically more aggressive countries [macroeconomic policies] serve business investment more positively. - - - [O]ver all, [in those countries], there are attitudes and policies that serve aspirations as opposed to contentment."
Galbraith actually believed that our vibrant and profit driven economy had fallen into a malaise of middle class contentment. Again, events perversely refused to conform to Galbraith's expectations. It is Japan and Germany whose policies caused economic malaise, while the Asian Tigers proceeded on their debt-fueled boom and bust trajectory.
Keynesian economic policies are inherently inflationary, and they must lead to rates of inflation that will be politically unacceptable.
? Galbraith has gotten one point spectacularly right, but predictably drew the wrong conclusion from it. He was one of the first Keynesian economists to recognize and publicly admit that Keynesian economic policies are inherently inflationary, and that they must lead to rates of inflation that will be politically unacceptable. However, rather than abandon these remedies, he proposed price and wage controls. He insisted that they worked during wartime and would work for indefinite periods during peacetime, too.
Of course, they didn't work all that well even during wartime, as everyone that acquired things "under the counter" well knew. And the longer they lasted, the worse they worked. Today, no serious economists doubt the inherent incompetence of administered pricing schemes.
As we have since found out from our experiences with rent control, and with energy price controls, wage and price controls serve only to allocate scarcity, and they don't even do that very well. Only market mechanisms provide the abundance that the American electorate rightfully expects. Only profit driven market directed economies provide the abundance that permits Galbraith to write about "The Affluent Society," and "The Culture of Contentment."
Individuals will have to surrender to the goals of the organization.
All surface transportation should reside in one monopoly entity covering the entire Eastern Seaboard.
Proposal: A public "planning authority of adequate power" should be developed to make livable the modern city and its surroundings by buying up all land wherever it considers market influences "palpably adverse." It would be responsible for the provision of adequate housing, health care, and transportation, as well as current city services.
"[I]ndividuals will have to surrender to the goals of the organization."
An amazing revival of the "benevolent despotism" argument!
This authority would have complete autonomy over its own staffing, plans and budget. Writing ten years later, he figured that this chore would require that about 50 percent of the area's GDP be taxed away or otherwise appropriated.
After regular federal and state taxes, individuals might actually be allowed to keep a few shekels for themselves. Of course, such a tax proposal would be very popular with any electorate.
Proposal: All surface transportation should reside in one monopoly entity for each of the large regions of the nation, such as the entire Eastern Seaboard east of the Allegheny Mountains. Galbraith pointed out that the nation's telecommunications system was best provided by the AT&T monopoly, which had total control over its market.
This last point is very instructive, since, indeed, the AT&T monopoly had given the U.S. the best telecommunications system, by some margin, of any major nation (and perhaps of any nation) in the world. Nevertheless, when a little bit of competition - still grossly "imperfect" - was introduced into the telecommunications market, old Ma Bell was forced to pick up her skirts and really hustle, providing substantially lower rates for consumers and a flood of innovative technology and new services.
The same experience occurred when some admittedly far from perfect competition was permitted in retail stock brokerage, airlines, trucking, and other heavily regulated basic industries. These huge corporations obviously had some influence over their markets, but if they actually control their markets as Galbraith asserts, recent economic history is impossible.
It has become apparent that even grossly imperfect market mechanisms can provide a cornucopia of benefits for consumers and the economy - over and above what is provided by even the best monopolies, such as that of AT&T before deregulation.
The evolution of the free enterprise system will lead it to resemble socialism.
The shareholder in the modern large corporation is without power and without function.
Government should pay off such functionless stockholders in bonds and have the dividends and capital gains accrue to the public.
Stockholders are "anomalous" and should be dispensed with. Equity markets play no role in the guidance and productive efficiency of the modern industrial system.
It is illogical - part of a peculiar technocratic secular religion - that CEOs and other corporate officials routinely work six day, 60 hour weeks for the benefit of such powerless, useless shareholders.
The role of "shareholder value."
The role of "profit centers."
? However, the most absurd of Galbraith's many absurdities - a true classic - is his prediction concerning "convergence." What separates it from his other absurdities - and makes it a classic - is the favorable response that it received amongst a substantial number of supposedly intelligent and learned economists and other intellectuals. The prediction was, of course, patently irrational and could only be seriously entertained by those who didn't really understand economics or what makes capitalism work.
Galbraith strongly asserted that socialist and capitalist systems were inevitably converging with respect to their larger and most important economic entities.
Prediction: The evolution of the free enterprise system is in a direction that will lead it to resemble socialism.
The wishful thinking of a committed ideologue! The whole world persists in moving towards capitalism - towards privatization and profit driven market mechanisms - despite widespread political reluctance to surrender levers of economic power.
Contention: Stockholders are "anomalous" and should be dispensed with. Equity markets play no role in the guidance and productive efficiency of the modern industrial system. Investment gains involve no work and little risk.
He's bought the Marxist propaganda myth! A few years after this statement was written, American equity markets entered a 12 year period of stagflation, with substantial losses in equity values in inflation adjusted terms. Now, lack of shareholder influence is seen as one of the most profound weaknesses of the Japanese and European economic systems.
In 1972, he asserted that shareholders and even the top management of the larger and most important capitalist corporations had lost effective control. Fortunately, this did not happen at GE or Microsoft.
"The shareholder in the modern large corporation is without power and without function."
With this view, Galbraith advocated that government "pay off such functionless stockholders in bonds and have the dividends and capital gains accrue to the public."
This is a faithful restatement of the Marxist view that - once capitalism had developed a nation's productive assets - they could be managed just as well without the capitalists - and the profits could be allocated for the general welfare. He apparently agrees with the Marxist propaganda myth that: "All profit is theft."
Galbraith argued that the modern large corporation is governed by its wide array of technocrats, who collectively have the information and skills needed for problem solving and decision making. They can ignore market signals because they control their markets. Their rewards and incentives flow from advancement and job security within their organization rather than from the profits of the corporation, which go mainly to those "functionless" shareholders. As long as those profits are adequate and show some modest growth, the technocrat's real interests in job security and advancement are taken care of.
He finds it illogical - part of a peculiar technocratic secular religion - that CEOs and other corporate officials routinely work six day, 60 hour weeks for the benefit of such powerless, useless shareholders.
Either corporate officers and technicians are too crazy to understand their own interests, or Galbraith was wrong. Galbraith would never even consider the possibility that it was he who might be wrong.
Galbraith was aware that shareholders can always vote with their feet, by selling their shares. However, he never went further into the implications of that power. Successful management concern for "shareholder value" is rewarded by rising share prices, high price/earnings multiples, safety against takeover threats, and enhanced financial powers for acquisitions and expansion. Failure to enhance shareholder value leads to low share prices, low price/earnings multiples, a loss of financial power, and vulnerability to takeovers.
Lack of concern for shareholder value has been widely identified as a primary cause for myriad economic ills in the economic systems of Europe and Asia. The equity capital provided by shareholders through the equity markets provides financial stability, especially in times of recession. An over reliance on debt capital is another primary cause for the myriad economic ills in the economic systems of Asia and Latin America, and is a problem even in Europe.
Also, Galbraith never mentions substantially autonomous "profit centers" - the key organizational factor that permits large capitalist entities to organize efficiently and retain entrepreneurial vigor. Every technocrat either reports to, or provides services to, profit center managers, whose careers hang on the performance of their sales charts and profit and loss statements. Organization by profit center exists because it serves shareholder interests - and it doesn't exist where there is no private ownership interest.
Thus, Galbraith's expectations have not come to pass. He must have been amazed at the worldwide rush to develop equity markets - and the spread of concern for shareholder value as a guiding principal for corporate governance - and the continuing tendency for large foreign corporations to strive to qualify for listing on America's securities markets. Why would all this be happening if Galbraith's analysis was correct? If Galbraith is right, the rest of the commercial world must be crazy.
Prediction: "Increasingly, it will be recognized that the mature corporation, as it develops, becomes part of the larger administrative complex associated with the state. In time, the line between the two will disappear. Men will look back in amusement at the pretense that once caused people to refer to General Dynamics and North American Aviation and AT&T as private business."
It's actually amusing how energetically these, and so many other similar, "powerful" corporations have had to hustle under the lash of competition, or have succumbed to market pressures, since Galbraith wrote these words. Market pressures have humbled them in spite of favors granted to them by their governments.
Delusions of intellectual grandeur: But that is not all. Galbraith had delusions of grandeur for himself and his fellow academic intellectuals.
Galbraith has many good things to say about the propaganda myth created by Karl Marx - treating much of it as profound economic truth. His strongest criticism of Marx was that Communism is not the end of the line of economic evolution.
Since the technocracy is dependent on educators and scientists for the training of additional technocrats and the provision of scientific advances, Galbraith expected the academic and scientific community to unite and eventually wrest substantial economic control from shareholders in the capitalist nations, and from the apparatchiks in the Soviet Union. This development would thus provide a "convergence" in the further development of the two economic systems.
INTELLECTUALS OF THE WORLD UNITE! YOU HAVE NOTHING TO LOSE BUT YOUR UTOPIAN FRUSTRATIONS. The hand that grants the academic degree will rule the economic world!
Of course, like other interest groups, intellectual groups continue to occasionally influence legislation of commercial significance. However, Galbraith's expectation that intellectual interests will displace shareholder interests as the controlling factor in corporate policy is yet another of his unfulfilled - and incredibly absurd - expectations.
Soviet socialism worked "very well" for basic industries.
Even in the 1990s, Galbraith refused total surrender.
In 1992, with socialist systems crumbling all over the world, he provided a petulant, one sentence concession that socialism had indeed failed for the diverse mass of rapidly changing consumer industries. However, he still persisted in insisting that it had worked "very well" in the Soviet Union for basic industries such as steel, transportation, electric utilities, weapons, and space exploration.
why Moscow housing projects became known as "instant slums;"
and, why all of its basic industries failed to meet even the most rudimentary environmental standards.
These are just some of the highlights. There is much more absurdity than this in Galbraith's prolific writing career.
Thurow: But we must leave room for MIT economics Prof. Lester C. Thurow.
In the 1980s, Thurow, in a string of authoritative books, directed his ideological passions towards support for government "industrial policy." He expressed very favorable views of those industries nationalized or otherwise controlled by foreign governments that could thereby be directed to fulfill various societal needs.
"[J]ust as an army can move only as fast as its slowest unit, so the economy can only be as good as its poorest motivated, least cooperative component." Clearly, if Thurow were a general, his tactics would be as disastrous as his proposed economic policies.
Unlike Galbraith, Thurow did accept market mechanisms, albeit suitably altered by all-knowing, all-wise government policies. His elaboration on the methods and content of his industrial policy program produced a string of classic absurdities. The pace of events by the end of the 20th century highlighted these absurdities with distressing rapidity.
Volcker's tight money policies will fail to cure inflation.
Industrial policies in Europe and Japan will assure the superior performance of those economic systems, as compared to the United States.
The willingness of Japanese firms to ignore immediate profits in efforts to gain market share will earn them monopoly profits after competitors are driven out.
We will suffer for lack of engineers.
We will suffer for lack of enough savings.
Government policy should be directed at supporting our largest corporations, even at the expense of smaller competitors.
Banks should take ownership interests in their major borrowers and allocate credit accordingly.
Dividends are a capitalist rip-off.
Profits should not be the primary objective of the corporation.
Corporate employees should have tenure and be paid seniority based wages.
Since labor costs cannot be readily reduced, the economy will remain biased towards high unemployment or inflation.
Prediction: Monetary policy at the Federal Reserve Bank went wrong in 1979 (when Paul Volcker started to reign in monetary expansion). Tight money alone will fail to cure inflation.
But, of course, it did cure inflation, despite huge budget deficits, and while accompanied after 1982 by a solid two decades of economic expansion.
The fight against inflation will be too painful for the public to tolerate.
The public would tolerate quite a bit - and be suitably grateful - to escape from the double digit miseries of the Carter Administration stagflation.
Prediction: Industrial policies in Europe and Japan will assure the superior performance of those economic systems, as compared to the United States, during the 1990s.
Here, again, events have perversely refused to conform to ideological expectations.
Prediction: The willingness of Japanese firms to ignore immediate profits in efforts to gain market share will earn them monopoly profits after competitors are driven out.
Unfortunately - by ignoring profits - Japanese corporations expanded unwisely - enmeshing themselves in low profit convergent and commodity manufacturing practices in overcapacity industries involving desperate cutthroat competition with other Asian corporations.
Prediction: The greater number of engineers being produced in Japan will put the U.S. at a competitive disadvantage.
Ten years earlier, it was the greater number of engineers being produced in the Soviet Union that was viewed as the problem. However, it's not just the number of engineers or other talented people that matters. What counts most is the ability of the economic system to make efficient use of them. Here, the U.S. entrepreneurial capitalist system excels.
Prediction: A low savings rate will put the U.S. at a competitive disadvantage.
Here, too, it's the efficiency of use, rather than the absolute amount, that counts most. Here, again, the U.S. excels.
Contention: We should accept the elimination of small business as a major factor in the American economy. It is "far better that small business be crushed by big American companies than that they be crushed by big foreign companies."
Social engineers are like socialists. They prefer dealing with large corporations that can more readily be regulated or controlled by government. However, Thurow thus demonstrates total ignorance of the flexibility and creativity of small business, and the importance of small business in the expansion of new industries and job opportunities.
Contention: Banks in the United States should have equity ties with their corporate borrowers, just like they do in Europe and Asia.
So why are the banks in Europe and Asia slowly trying to untangle themselves from their equity ties with their corporate borrowers? By taking such equity positions, American banks would get into the same trouble as the Asian and European banks, with vast holdings of bad and under performing loans. It would also increase the difficulties that vibrant small businesses have in obtaining financing.
Contention: Dividends are "a capitalist rip-off," and are unnecessary.
Another economist who has bought into the Marxist propaganda myth. This man is teaching economics at MIT? What's going on up there in Massachusetts, anyway?
Dividends are a COST of equity capital, like capital gains, and like interest payments for debt capital. If our tax policies were at all logical, dividends would be deductible as a cost, just like interest expense. They provide economic justification for the raising and maintenance of the vital equity capital that gives corporations their basic financial strength and stability. As a matter of economics, they are a much more efficient method of paying for equity capital than capital gains.
Contention: Corporations should not be evaluated by their profitability, but by their "value added" efforts.
Yet another derivative of Marxist propaganda mythology. Obviously, if you're going to encourage and support huge, monopolistic entities, efficiency becomes unnecessary, and the higher their costs, the more "value-added" they can claim.
Contention: Workers should be entitled to tenure and wages based on seniority instead of merit.
Great! Then the most important economic entities would be as efficient as the civil service.
Prediction: Since labor costs cannot be readily reduced, the economy will remain biased towards high unemployment or inflation.
Again, the market outsmarts the brilliant academic. He, of course, could never foresee the development of all the recent creative ways of regaining labor market flexibility - such as downsizing, the aggressive use of temporary employees, and out sourcing.
Adam Smith was wrong. Mercantilist policies are best.
The government knows best which corporations should be the winners and which the losers.
We should reject the "just in time" inventory management practices that modern technology makes possible.
We must buy enough oil at 1980 prices to fill our oil reserves.
Government knows best about union and management practices.
We should expend our resources in subsidy trade wars.
The independence of the Federal Reserve Bank should be eliminated and its decisions politicized. And what type of foresight and wisdom does Thurow believe "industrial policy" would provide us?
Mimic the results of Japanese industrial policy. Thurow asserts that Japan has changed the rules of international commerce, and their rules are superior. "Japan may go on to rule the waves for the next 25 years or longer."
Thurow judges the success of Japan's mercantilist policies by their effect on the industries that they apparently favor, while ignoring their impact on the rest of the Japanese economy. Japan, and other Asian economies, are burdened by agricultural subsidies, overstaffed industries, inflexible mega firms, and all the sins of crony capitalism and mercantilist trade policies. Of course, the U.S. government is not exactly free from these sins, either.
Encourage the establishment of huge, increasingly formalized and stable economic entities.
How perverse of our markets to force restructuring in the opposite direction since that time. We have, in fact, accepted those Japanese management techniques that made sense, but the markets have dictated downsizing and increased flexibility. Our "industrial policy" has stressed deregulation and the breakup of utility monopolies wherever possible. I guess this has all been some terrible mistake.
Concentrate resources on our industry leaders. "The industries that are going to be important players in the next two decades are already here."
Thank goodness that Bill Gates and the other Silicon Valley geeks didn't learn their economics from Thurow.
Require the maintenance of ample inventories, and make sure we have a full oil reserve. "Every inventory control model shows that if one tries to run a business without inventories the result is very erratic prices and occasional shortages."
Thurow believes that econometric models actually reflect reality. Here he chooses to ignore Japanese "just in time" inventory management practices.
How perverse of those maligned and ineffectual capitalist markets. They actually somehow found the strength to apply competitive pressures and force substantial reductions in the expense of carrying large inventories. After they were released from energy price controls, the energy markets were somehow able to overwhelm OPEC and flood us with an abundance of oil at constantly declining prices for the next two decades - much to the surprise and amazement of the government energy warriors.
Eliminate management and union practices and organizations that aren't working. "The current social organizations don't work and aren't going to automatically collapse simply because they don't work."
But, of course, they did. The ruthless destruction of economic entities that don't work is exactly what free markets do -- and they do it automatically, without Rube Goldberg government procedures and politically slanted government policies.
Equal the worst subsidy practices of any nation that U.S. firms compete with.
The United States should pour resources into the competition for the markets of perennially low-profit, surplus capacity, commodity manufacturing industries. Of course, to some extent the U.S. government does this, for such industries as textiles and sugar and other agricultural crops.
Require the Federal Reserve Bank to respond to political pressures and sustain economic growth despite inflation. Thurow believed that the deceleration of inflation between 1979 and 1983 was just "luck." He predicted that it would be unsustainable, and would surge again, accompanied by an interest rate surge back to double digit levels, as soon as the recession of that period ended.
Of course, events again perversely failed to conform to his expectations, and the independent Fed went on to slay inflation and provide the monetary basis for sustained prosperity.
Industrial Policy Board to establish industrial policy: It's when Thurow starts to explain his system for government "industrial planning" that we get a good idea why we must never allow Government - with or without the assistance of intellectuals like Thurow - to direct economic development. He advocates a Rube Goldberg reorganization to establish political control of U.S. business organizations and commercial arrangements.
Proposal: There should be Government banks to allocate credit.
Government should pick the winners and losers among competitive business entities - just like in Asia.
Proposal: There should be a Government Restructuring Board, which would "negotiate" with firms as to which facilities they would be permitted to close down, and which should be restructured.
The application of political imperatives, bureaucratic imperatives, and due process decision-making procedures would make the U.S. economy even less flexible than that of India.
Proposal: There should be an Industrial Policy Board to direct broad economic policies.
And Lester Thurow or similarly perceptive intellectuals should be placed in control - of course.

USA Gives $8 Billion Every Year to Israel-Hating United Nations
By Raymond Draper	 On May 19, 2018
The United States supports Israel while simultaneously paying for 22% of the United Nation's budget. Something's got to give.
Since the March of Return started on Passover this year, the United Nations has tried to pin the deaths of Palestinian protesters on Israelis, and now the UN's human rights chief is calling the border defense in the last few weeks a "wholly disproportionate" response.
Read more on the money that the United States pays into the UN, with a bonus quote given by Joe Biden 18 years ago on the need to hand over at least half a billion to the United Nations to apologize for cutting their budget.
The look of a man who won the Oval Office with his own money by appealing directly to the voters and not the GOP kingmakers, about to tell the United Nations to respect the people who pay their bills.
In the last few weeks, Israelis have warned again and again that they would use live ammunition against rioters along the Gaza border.
And so, tens of thousands of Palestinians attacked the border fence, set fire to pipeline, destroyed infrastructure and even developed "fire kites" in an attempt to set fire to Israeli lands all while pretending that they are the innocent ones and it's the Israelis who are aggressing.
Deaths Rise With Opening of Jerusalem Embassy
On Monday, Trump held true to his promise — one that has been in the works since the 1990s but ignored by the last four Presidents — to move the US embassy in Israel from Tel Aviv to the capital of Jerusalem.
With Ivanka in attendance at the Embassy, Palestinians rioted at the border at several locations and several dozen were killed attempting to break the border wall.
Earlier this week, Israel announced that they would allow eight trucks filled with medical aid to be brought into Gaza. But, when Hamas found out that two of the trucks were provided by Israel, they turned back the basic supplies at the border while emergency room doctors told media that they're running dangerously low on what they need to treat patients.
United Nations: Blame Israel
After the first wave of riots on Passover (because if you're going to attack a neighbor, you do it on one of their holidays), the United Nations Security Council whose member countries include Kuwait, which refuses to allow Israeli passport holders to enter their own territory, cried that the Israelis should be investigated for the attacks on them.
When it came to a vote, UN Ambassador Nikki Haley vetoed the investigation.
NEW: UN Human Rights Council Complains
A "special" session of the Human Rights arm of the UN was called this week to cry crocodile tears of the Palestinians, saying that with the alleged deaths of 100 people in the last six weeks, that Israel is breaking a Geneva Convention.
According to the Jordanian Zeid Ra'ad Al Hussein, the current High Commissioner for Human Rights:
"…killing resulting from the unlawful use of force by an occupying power may also constitute willful killings, a grave breach of the Fourth Geneva Convention. The stark contrast in casualties on both sides is … suggestive of a wholly disproportionate response"
Hey, it's not Israel's fault that they have well trained troops who were ordered to shoot people who were throwing burning tires at them.
United Nations Relies on US Money
There are two budgets under the United Nations, the general public, and the peacekeeping budget. Countries are charged for membership, but the United States pays a disproportionate amount.
The minimum budget assessment required to be handed over to the United Nations from member countries is 0.001%. In 2015, 35 member nations were charged that minimum of only $28,269 each in order to maintain membership.
Peacekeeping Budget
The minimum budget assessment required to be handed over to the United Nations from member countries is 0.0001%. In 2015, 20 member nations were charged that minimum of only $8,470 each in order to maintain membership.
United States Pays Most
Right now, the US followed by Japan pay the most into the United Nations.
In the year 2000, America was considered to have $1.3 billion in debt to the United Nations for not paying their "fair share" after the US government declared a budget cut to the main UN budget for 2001.
Joe Biden, then an unknown Senator from Delware, said that he wanted to work on getting his fellow lawmakers to fix the UN legislation and to dutifully write a check for $582 million for the UN's peacekeeping budget. At the time, Biden said he hoped it wouldn't cause a fight to send over half a billion the UN:
"It's a great deal. America wins. … Our standing in the United Nations is improving because of this and our financial obligation is decreasing. That's a win."
In 2003, Japan announced that they would no longer be paying $1 billion every year to the United Nations. At the time, the country was covering 19.5% of the UN's budget and the US was covering 30%.

Fit for a princess: Who actually paid for Meghan Markle's wedding dress?
Royal weddings are always a memorable affair – largely because they're highly publicized, beautifully extravagant, and insanely expensive. Perhaps one of the hottest topics of a royal wedding is, of course, the dress.
Meghan Markle's stunning dress was very memorable during her 2018 wedding to Prince Harry. It stood apart from all the royal wedding dresses we can remember, and dazzled us with its simplicity & poise.
While it's easy to marvel at the glamor, take a moment to marvel at the tremendous expenses. Markle's wedding dress had a staggeringly high price tag, but who paid for it? How much can one wedding burn through the royal wallet? Take a sip of this tea, and be prepared to do a spit-take because these wedding expenses are absurdly high.
Royal wedding bills
Meghan Markle & Prince Harry's wedding totaled about $42.8 million. In comparison, Prince William & Kate Middleton's wedding came to $34 million. Before you freak out, know that 94% of that jaw-dropping figure comes from security expenses. To keep the royals safe, they had snipers, undercover police, and a counter-UAV system coming to $40 million.
Still, taking this into account the rest of the wedding including the ceremony & reception still totaled $2.7 million which is 73 times the cost of an average UK wedding according to CNBC. Food & beverage along with flowers and a glass marquee made the wedding very pricey.
Who foots the bill? The royal family announced they're covering "core aspects of the wedding" such as the "church service, the associated music, flowers, decorations, and the reception afterwards." The security costs, however, will largely be paid for by taxpayers.
That Markle sparkle
How much did Meghan Markle's dress cost? According to Vanity Fair, Markle's wedding attire came close to $236,000. How the heck could a dress be so pricey? Let's look at the bill in detail.
Markle's custom dress was designed by British fashion artist Clare Waight Keller, director of fashion house Givenchy. Markle explained how she was drawn to the gown for its "elegant aesthetic" and "relaxed demeanor." Keller stated that the dress was meant to "convey modernity through sleek lines and sharp cuts".
While the silk bodice & train of the dress showed a sleek simplicity, Meghan Markle went all out on her veil. The veil is sixteen feet long and hand-embroidered with delicate flower patterns on its hem. Embroiders spent 500 hours completing it.
The tiara Markle wore to hold the veil in place was Queen Mary's diamond bandeau tiara loaned to her by the Queen. The tiara is adorned with ten brilliant diamonds and made up of platinum.
Who paid?
This is the big question – who forked over the six-figure expense of the wedding dress? In 2011, Kate Middleton paid for her Alexander McQueen gown from her own pocket, which came to $434,000. Thus it was expected that Meghan Markle would pay for her own dress.
Author of Harry, Life, Loss and Love, Katie Nicholl, said: "My sources tell me that Meghan wants to make a contribution to the wedding. She's a feminist and a wealthy and independent woman and the fact is that pretty much all of the wedding cost are being picked up by the royal family."
Rumors say that Markle may not have ended up paying in full for her own wedding dress, perhaps being helped by her family or used the royal budget to help. However, since these rumors are unconfirmed, it's likely Markle did pay for the dress herself.
Hollywood fortune
As a successful Hollywood actress, Meghan Markle certainly has the means to fund her expensive wedding dress. Her estimated net worth is around $5 million.
Markle consistently wears high-end designer brands to show off wealth and her sense of style. (Even after Megxit, she's kept up her regal appearance.)
The gorgeous bird dress pictured above cost over $12,000 paired with $750 pumps. So yeah, Markle has a budget to fund her royal game of dress-up.
Do you think UK tax dollars are well spent on royal affairs? Let us know in the comments.

THE ESSEX GIRL'S SPANISH CAR BOOT SALE!
I've said it before, and I'll say it again, the thing about a car boot sale is you either love them or hate them. One man's trash is another man's treasure, which is determined by whatever side of the bartering table you happen to be.
But Saturday's little car boot sale jaunt in Spain wasn't about the quality of the shite people were selling, it was just that the whole thing was SUCH a hilarious experience.
Firstly the car park was more like a 'let's just leave it here' park. No cones, no orange tape, and no fit young men in high viz jackets helpfully lining you up with the bonnets of a hundred other cars.
No this was a lock it and leave it wherever you can. And so I did.
But what followed was an Essex girl's dream car boot sale.
It's 6th November, and today not only am I six weeks into my latest Spanish adventure, today I officially received my state pension. Bloody Hell, I don't know whether to laugh or cry.
I've just returned from taking Buddy on our favourite walk around the golf course, and here is the date stamped proof that there is indeed not a cloud in the sky! And whilst fog brought much of the UK to a virtual standstill this week, Mr. Blue Sky is thankfully still rocking and rolling here on the Costa Blanca.

KSRTC Sees Red Over Shiradi Ghat Closure
Published: 16th January 2016 04:57 AM | Last Updated: 16th January 2016 04:57 AM | A+A A-
By Nitindra Bandyopadhyay
BENGALURU: The Karnataka Road Transport corporation is seeing red over the announcement of the closure of Shiradi Ghat road for three-months starting January end or February first week.
Last year, the Shiradi Ghat was closed for more than six months starting January 2, 2015 for road repairs, as a result of which the corporation claims it incurred a loss of around 4.71 crore.
Public Works Department Minister H C Mahdevappa announced on Thursday that the stretch will be closed again owing to the the second phase of concretisation, which will be taken up shortly.
The second phase will cost `90 crore and will include asphalting the 21-km stretch from Gulagalale to Heggadde and concretisation of the 31-km long road from Kempuhole to Addahole. The work is expected to be completed in three months. Last year's work was delayed for months due to rain.
A senior KSRTC official said, "Around 1,000 buses ply on this route from either side. Every day 272 schedules are operated on this route. If the road is closed, the buses will have to use alternative routes through Madikeri and Chikkamagaluru. So each bus will have to ply 30-45 km extra to reach Shiradi."
"This is the peak tourist season and hence the closure will also have an impact on passengers willing to reach Shiradi. We have to bear the extra expense as putting the cost of the extra travel on passengers is not an option. Approximately, each day, the corporation will suffer a loss of around `2 lakh, with each bus incurring an additional cost of `1,000 to 1,200," said the official.
KSRTC is not willing to make passengers bear the additional cost as the route is also frequented by private bus services and an increase in ticket prices will only lead to it losing passengers to private players. Meanwhile, Mahadevappa said that tunnelling is also being considered on the stretch and will be taken up once it is cleared by the environmental committee.
Japan International Cooperation Agency is looking into the viability of the project estimated to cost `10,000 crore.

Ron Keller - Allen Chapel 902 Broadway Street
Mr. Keller came forward as a historian to give background
This church started in 1868. It was previously a school. Once the congregation grew a new church was built in 1880 in the same location. The church served as more than a place to worship, it was considered a safe place for African Americans that were slaves. In 2003, the church was recognized as a national and city historical landmark.
The roof is starting to sag and there may be some mold that will need remediated. Mr. Keller has agreed to be caretaker of the church. A new Friends of Allen Chapel group is being created. They'd like to partner with tourism. In order to apply and receive grants, there cannot be any outstanding bills or liens. Mr. Keller is asking the city to recognize the church and its importance and to waive current bills with penalties totaling $1,957.33 that the church owes the city.
Clerk Bateman said the majority of the past due amount is penalties that total $850.00. There is a lien on the account due to the past due bill.
Mayor Welch would be in favor of waiving the past due so that the group would be able to apply for grants and get some structural improvements done.
The sewer bill is currently suspended and there are no ongoing charges. There are no plans to reconnect water or sewer or install electricity.
Alderman Bateman suggested using the tourism line to pay for the charges and waiving the lien. Treasurer Conzo was also in agreement of waiving the charges. He felt that compared to the dollar amount spent on the Mill the amount was relatively small.
This item will be put on the regular agenda.
L. Keeley Construction pay application No. 7
The amount due is incorrect on Pay App #7. The correct amount is $430,883 .72.
This project is near finishing at 93%. An additional request was made to the EPA for additional reimbursements in the amount of 858,337.00. If the request is approved, the council will vote on whether to accept it.
This item will be placed on the regular agenda.
Ordinance Amending the Economic Development Grant Commission and Economic Development Program.
There is an Economic Development Grant Commission meeting this Friday regarding the amendment. The Commission's suggestion will be brought to the Council on 11.01.2021 for vote.
Postville Park Pavilion Proposal
Justin Dietrich (LCHS woodshop instructor) contacted Mr. Landers late last year and asked if the city would have a good location for his class to erect a pavilion. Mr. Landers felt Postville Park would be the best location. $5,000 is budgeted for this project.
Alderman Bateman asked for an estimation to run electricity to the pavilion. He also asked that the placement of the pavilion be set back away from 5th St road for safety.
This project will begin in the spring of 2022. This item will be placed on the regular agenda.

Circus Frans Mikkenie was van 1948 tot 1954 het grootste circus in Nederland.

Nadat Frans Mikkenie van 1936-1947 circusdirecteur was van het Circus Strassburger (vanaf 1940 Circus Mikkenie-Strassburger genaamd), richtte hij in 1948 zijn eigen circus op.  Het circus had een aluminium tent, die zij een kiosk noemden, waarmee het gezelschap door Nederland, België en Luxemburg trok. Er pasten 4.000 toeschouwers in de kiosk.

Op terugweg van Spanje reisde het gezelschap in 1950 door Frankrijk en België, en trad onderweg in enkele steden op. Vandaar trok het circus naar Italië. De première op 1 juli in Rome was een groot succes en Frans Mikkenie werd benoemd tot Commandeur in de Orde van St. George van Antiochië.

In 1953 ging Circus Mikkenie toeren onder de naam Hollywood Circus. Het begon met een galavoorstelling in Brussel. Een van de bezoekers was Prins Albert. In Duitsland traden ze gewoon als Circus Frans Mikkenie op. In 1953 kwam ook de detectiveroman "Circus Mikkenie" uit, geschreven door Havank. In 1968 werd er een hoorspel Circus Mikkenie van gemaakt.

Het laatste seizoen was 1954. Circus Mikkenie reisde rond als Circo Español. Het werd een revue-circus, waarvoor de piste door een podium werd vervangen. Kort nadat Frans Mikkenie (op 24 juli 1954) overleed, stopte het circus.

Circus Mikkenie 1977
Circus Mariska, een kindercircus, werd in 1977 omgedoopt in Circus Mikkenie, met toestemming van de familie. Mikkenies paarden en dromedarissen stonden weer op het programma. Directeur was Rob Ritman, die eerder o.a. bij Boltini werkte.

Circus


In last night's presentation of the moto E5 phone, the host said that it has 3GB of RAM and that it has the latest version of Android. I ordered this phone from HSN last week and it has 2GB of RAM and Oreo Android (Oreo hasn't been the latest version of Android since Pie came out last August). Of course, every presenter always says that Oreo is the latest version even though a beta version of Q is already out. I called last night and talked to a representative who said "Oh, we wouldn't lie on TV." I e-mailed HSN and asked what was going on and was told that my phone is different from the one in the presentation. Nope, same model number. Reply also apologized for my concern with the TracFone and for the "inconvenience". I certainly have no concern or inconvenience with the product; I just have concerns with the underhanded sales process and the fact that nobody wants to do anything about them!
You will never get any useful information about electronics or Tracfone. Lori Leiland is more about showing pictures of her kid than giving info on the phone. She will show all the "bells and whistles" but won't tell you things you really want to know. I would never buy a Tracfone or electronics from HSN again. You'll have to return at your expense. I always buy my TracFone's at HSN because they furnish a prepaid return label.
I bought a HP Computer that was supposed to have lifetime support. 6 months later the computer died and the lifetime support phone number was disconnected.

Garcetti garners endorsement of Art Torres
March 11, 2013 | 9:53 pm
Comparing Eric Garcetti to President Obama, former California Democratic Party chairman and state Sen. Art Torres on Monday endorsed Garcetti for mayor of Los Angeles.
Garcetti will prevail in the runoff against Controller Wendy Greuel, Torres predicted, because, like the president, he holds progressive ideals and is appealing to a younger demographic who will turn out to vote for him.
"He's got the same kind of leadership that the president exhibited,'' Torres said to a small crowd of supporters and Democratic activists gathered outside Casa Torres restaurant in Sylmar. "Eric is going to exhibit that leadership as mayor."
Torres was in the state Legislature for 20 years, representing the east side of Los Angeles first as an Assembly member and later as a senator. He also served as chairman of the California Democratic Party for 13 years, stepping aside in 2009.
Torres said he's known Garcetti most of his life because he worked with the candidate's father, former Los Angeles County Dist. Atty. Gil Garcetti, on anti-gang and crime laws while in the Legislature. Eric Garcetti showed signs of leadership early on, Torres said, but "I just didn't know he would move up so quickly."
Garcetti is a three-term city councilman. Greuel served on the City Council before becoming controller. They will face off in a May 21 mayoral runoff.
The Garcetti campaign announced the Torres endorsement on the eve of a meeting at which the L.A. County Democratic Party will decide whether to endorse in the mayoral election. The campaign hopes Torres' nod will help sway some of the delegates who will vote on the endorsement Tuesday night.
At Monday's rally, Garcetti told a reporter that Torres' backing "helps me continue to build momentum." But he warned supporters that he was taking nothing for granted in the weeks of hard campaigning ahead.
"I finished first in the primary but I'm going to run like I'm 20 points behind," he said, then exhorted supporters to make phone calls, raise money and, critically, get voters to the polls.
Facing a field of strong Democratic contenders, the party declined to endorse any of the candidates in early January after a series of votes in which no one reached the 60% threshold needed to win backing.
Even then, the tally was close. Garcetti and Greuel personally courted many of the group's 200 delegates, and Assembly Speaker John A. Perez made a strong push to secure support for Greuel. Ultimately during that late-night January meeting, Garcetti won the support of 46% of the delegates voting, to Greuel's 41%.
An further 12% of the delegates voted in favor of "no endorsement," which is also a possibility Tuesday.
It was an early reflection of how close the primary race would be. In the March 5 contest, Garcetti led the field with 33% of the vote to Greuel's 29%. In city races, if no candidate wins 50% of the vote, the contest moves to a runoff.
Although Greuel has secured endorsements of many labor groups active in Democratic politics, Garcetti has won the backing of groups such as the Democratic Party of the San Fernando Valley, which represents 27 Democratic clubs.

Researchers Sue for Release of 60-Year-Old Documents on Organized Crime
In 1950, a special commission convened by California Governor Earl Warren completed publication of four groundbreaking reports on the growing threat of organized crime in the state.
But the 30 boxes of documents collected for its work by the Standley Commission were never publicly released and instead of being sent to the California State Archives for preservation, an unknown donor sent them to the Bancroft Library at the University of California, Berkeley.
When researchers recently sought access to the material, they were told the documents were sealed and unavailable until 2028 because of confidentiality concerns. The Reporters Committee for Freedom of the Press filed a Public Records Act request with the university but LeVale Simpson, the university's public records coordinator, said the documents were not "public records" as defined by the act. The university maintains that only documents pertaining to the school's business are public documents.
So the group filed a lawsuit (pdf).
"This is a, quite frankly, ludicrous interpretation of the Public Records Act," Katie Townsend, counsel for the Reporters Committee, told Courthouse News Service. Townsend said the university apparently made no effort to sift through the records and sort out any documents that were exempt from the law. The lawsuit asks for immediate release of all the documents.
The Act defines a public record as including "any writing containing information relating to the conduct of the public's business prepared, owned, used, or retained by any state or local agency." A state agency is "every state office, officer, department, division, bureau, board, and commission or other state body or agency," with some specific exceptions.
So, is the Bancroft Library at UC Berkeley an agency hoarding public records? And just what juicy secrets do the 30 cartons contain? Who has something to hide after 60 years?
The commission did not have subpoena power and was somewhat limited in the information it could compel others to produce. Nonetheless, the panel detailed the intrusion of organized crime into local government, naming names of officials who facilitated organized crime's gambling activities like bookmaking and slot machines, its evasion of taxes and general corruption.
They published four detailed reports and the commission was followed by another with a similar mandate and stronger investigative powers. A lot is known about how organized crime operated in California in the forties and fifties. But, apparently, folks at UC figure the California general public still can't handle the whole truth.

The Hideout Toronto is a Rock n Rollers Haven. Why because the guys that own it are Rock n Rollers. Danny, Jimmy & Phil are hard working & hard, well let's just leave it at hard working venue owners. The guys are what Makes the Hideout the Hideout. I am sure if these guys did now own the Hideout they would be patrons there very often. This venue where people go to enjoy great live music, see and meet beautiful people and let go for the night is a lot of fun and warm. Most nights you find all the owners on one side of the bar or the other but they are there. Greeting patrons with smiles and a warm feeling of welcome. Oh, YA lots of BEER, SPIRITS, AND SHOTS!!

Q: CodeIgniter: Inserting data into parent and child tables simultaneously I have a customer detail form. It's data will goto two tables Snapshot and CustomerDetail. CustomerDetail table has a foreign key refrencing SnapshotPK. SnapshotPK is an autoincrement column.

*

*How would I insert the data in both the tables when customer clicks on save button?

*Is it the option to in two insert statements inside a transaction which is $this->db->trans_start(). Wouldn't it affect the performance?

A: Yes, use transactions. It's exactly the purpose for transactions - if one of the inserts fails, you can rollback the transaction. The performance hit is negligible to maintaining a consistent and clean database.

Dozens of UAE-, Saudi-backed militants killed in Yemeni missile strike in Shabwah Province: Report
An image grab, taken from a video released by the media bureau of Yemen's Operations Command Center, shows Yemeni forces launching a ballistic missile.
Dozens of militants sponsored by the United Arab Emirates (UAE) and Saudi Arabia were killed after Yemeni Army soldiers and fighters from allied Popular Committees launched a missile strike against their position in Yemen's southern province of Shabwah.
Informed sources, speaking on condition of anonymity, told Yemen News Portal website that a massive explosion shook a military camp of the UAE-backed militants – better known by the nom de guerre the Giants – in the Nokhan area, which lies east of the provincial capital of Ataq, on Monday evening, Press TV reported.
According to the sources, the incident occurred when Yemeni soldiers and allied fighters launched a domestically-developed ballistic missile at the site, leaving dozens of the militants killed and injured.
The development came a day after Lebanon's Arabic-language Al Mayadeen television news network reported that the commander of the so-called Third Brigade, Majdi al-Radfani, had died of his injuries after Yemeni Army troops and their allies targeted UAE-sponsored militants in the Bayhan district of Shabwah Province.
The report added that more than 130 militants have been killed during battles with Yemeni Armed Forces over the past few days and dozens of others have been wounded. A number of their military vehicles have been destroyed as well.
Yemeni forces down Emirati spy drone
The Yemeni Armed Forces shot down an unmanned aerial vehicle belonging to the United Arab Emirates Air Force (UAEAF) as it was flying over Shabwah Province.
They hit the long-endurance Wing Loong 2 drone with a surface-to-air missile on Tuesday morning, spokesman for the Yemeni Armed Forces Brigadier General Yahya Saree tweeted.
Saree said the armed drone was targeted while carrying out hostile acts over the Ain district of the province.
Saudi warplanes continue bombing Yemen
Saudi warplanes continued to carry out airstrikes against several areas across Yemen on Monday.
Saudi military aircraft conducted strikes against Ansar Mosque in the Harib district of Yemen's central province of Marib, severely damaging its building.
Saudi warplanes also targeted farmhouses and agricultural lands in the same Yemeni district, with no immediate reports of possible casualties and extent of damage quickly available.
The Saudi fighter jets carried out 20 air raids against Ain and Harib districts in Shabwah Province on Thursday, Yemen's Almasirah television network said.
Moreover, Saudi aerial assaults hit Wadi Ubaidah and Jubah districts of Yemen's oil-producing Marib Province, located some 175 kilometers (109 miles) east of the capital Sana'a. There were no immediate reports of casualties or extent of damage.
In the northwestern Yemeni province of Jawf, three further aerial raids targeted the Khabb wa ash Sha'af district.
Saudi jets also raided an area in the Kitaf district of Yemen's northern province of Sa'ada.
Separately, forces of the Saudi-led military coalition and their mercenaries carried out 93 acts during the past 24 hours in violation of a ceasefire agreement between warring sides for the Western coastal province of Hodeida.
Almasirah TV, citing an unnamed source in Yemen's Liaison and Coordination Officers Operations Room, reported that the violations included two reconnaissance flights, in addition to dozens of counts of artillery shelling and shooting incidents.
Leading a military coalition consisting of its regional allies and backed by Western powers, Saudi Arabia launched the war on Yemen in March 2015, seeking primarily to dismantle the popular Ansarullah resistance movement and regain Yemen as its pawn by reinstalling Yemen's former president Abd Rabbuh Mansur Hadi.
The war has left hundreds of thousands of Yemenis dead and displaced millions more. It has also destroyed Yemen's infrastructure and spread famine and infectious diseases there.
The Ansarullah movement has vowed to defeat the Saudi- and Emirati-backed mercenaries and liberate Yemen in its entirety. It says the war on Yemen was waged to subjugate the Arab country to the US, the British, and the Israelis.
