CullomptonCribbs vs Willand Rovers (Saturday 6th April 2019)Willand Rovers manager Russell Gee insists his team are in 'a great position' in the race for the Western League title, despite Saturday's surprise 2-0 defeat at Cribbs, which let Plymouth Parkway in at the top. It was only Willand's third defeat of a season in which they have consistently looked a good bet for the title. But, short of some of his best players – they were out of the country, partying – Jee wasn't too upset and instead wanted to focus on the season's positives – and pay tribute to Cribbs, who he said deserved the win. "If you had said at the start of the season we would be second in the table with five games to go we would have snapped your hand off," he said. "We have also made the quarter finals of the FA Vase – and are still in the Les Phillips Cup. "We want to win every game – but we came up against a better team than us on the day and they deserved the win." Parkway, who won promotion to the Western League Premier Division from the Penunsila Premier last season, were always thought of as a threat – but Willand have led the way for most of the campaign. It could have been worse for Willand had Parkway not actually only drawn 1-1 at home against Bridgwater Town on Saturday. And Willand still have a game in hand over their rivals. "We are in a great position," insisted Jee. "We go again in the Les Phillips Cup on Wednesday – and then we have Shortwood on Saturday." Shortwood United are bottom of the table, but have proved in recent weeks they are no longer the mugs they have been at times, this season – they drew with 1-1 with sixth-placed Buckland Athletic this month. No mean feat. And, without wanting to make excuses, Jee did say he was without five key players at the weekend – there was a stag-do in Las Vegas – so should welcome back Luke Oldham, Luke Mortimore, Brad Austen, Aaron Deering and Joe Curtis for the game. Take that lot out of any team and the balance would shift. Bring them them back against Shortwood, who have shipped 110 goals this season, and the omens are good. Jee doesn't think the pressure of being one point behind at this stage will get to his players. "We have led all season so we are used to the pressure," he said.

A Scottish Labour History Publication
ISSN 1472-6041. Price £6.00
This publication reproduces two pamphlets from the years of the Scottish Miners' Strike. The first pamphlet published in 1985 and titled 'For as long as it takes!' Cowie in the Strike. The second pamphlet, published in 1986 and titled 'One Year On, Sacked Polmaise Miners Speak Out' Both pamphlets were written by Steve McGrail and Vicky Patterson. The strike began in Scotland at a time of pit closures and the well-established centralised organisation of the Scottish coalfield by a Tory Government whose policy to close the mines not just in Scotland but in all of the U.K.
Fifty Miners had moved to the Polmaise Colliery when the Cowiepit Colliery was closed. In an atmosphere of fear for their jobs and livelihoods the men in the Polmaise Colliery needed no ballot to agree to Strike action.
The reader of these two pamphlets will learn how carefully the organisation of this thirteen-month strike was. Strike Centres were set up to plan picketing, to identify areas needing help and support. Food kitchens were established in miners' welfare centres which ensured the striking men got a daily meal. Mass actions were supported in Scotland and in the UK. Many of the Cowie miners travelled to Orgreave, they knew that stopping the production of Steel could help their cause. They returned bloodied, Tam Hood, a Cowie miner said 'I saw ten to fifteen men all with wounds to the back of the heid, it sickened me, Orgreave was murder, just bloody murder, I'd not go back' All who went agreed, the police acted like savages, it was recognised that Soldiers were dressed as Policemen on the day.
What is surprising, is the decision the Strike Committee took that no Women were to be allowed to help during the strike in any way. Of course, this was not agreeable to the wives and daughters of the miners. They knew they were directly affected by the Strike, managing on strike pay was impossible without help. Visits were made by a group of the striking miners wives, mothers and daughters to the women helping the Yorkshire Miners. The Scottish women learnt how help could be organised, events were held once back home in Scotland, but they got little support.
The pamphlets are full of verbatim accounts of life during the long action, of how the NUM controlled the work of the Strike Centres, coordinating communications away from the office because the phones were tapped. It's tragic to read that eleven miners with a combined total of two hundred and nineteen years' service to the mining industry were sacked for picketing. Each tell their story of what happened, how they lost everything and how they consider themselves to be victims used as examples by a cruel and vindictive government.
The contents of much of the pamphlets provide a primary source for any person looking for what happened in a small area of the Scottish coalfield during the 1984-85 Miners Strike. It could be said that what happened here occurred up and down the land.

Q: A rotated square panel in Java GUI I wonder if it is possible to implement a GUI panel (possibly JPanel) that is of square shape but rotated 90 degrees. Obviously, there will be a top-level container which contains this panel, and visually the main panel is this rotated square panel within.
More specifically, I would divide a panel (called 'A') into 4 equal square sub-panels, and fill these sub-panels with JLabels, for which I am thinking to use GridLayout. And lastly, I would rotate 'A' 90 degrees to give what I want.
From my reading of other similar questions, it seems that you cannot rotate JPanel itself, but you can rotate what is contained within. Is this applicable to my case here? Would appreciate if someone could point out. Thanks.

A: Check out JXTransformer in the SwingHelper project over at java.net. This class acts as a component decorator that allows you to apply an arbitrary affine transform to a component.

A: Yes, you would have to have the top-level container (JPanel or other container) be the item that rotates the contents. Really you aren't rotating the items, you are rotating to the painting of the items.

A: If all you need to do is rotate the text on a JLabel you could use a Rotated Icon, then you don't have to worry about rotating the panel.

A: The critical thing seems to be painting the components after rotating the graphics context. Here's an example:

Addendum 1:As @Atreys comments, the rotated components are drawn, but interact poorly. If the components must remain usable, event coordinates should also be transformed. Compare this (considerably) more complex example that mirrors components.
Addendum 2: If you also need to transform the mouse coordinates, this example may be helpful.
Addendum 3: Alternatively, consider the drawString() examples examined here.

Atletico Madrid were outstanding as they outfought, outbattled and outclassed Barcelona to seal a 2-0 win (3-2 on aggregate) and advance to the semifinals of the Champions League thanks to a brilliant Antoine Griezmann double.
On a cold night at a bouncing Vicente Calderon, Diego Simeone's side stepped up and were counted as they ruined Barca's dream of a second-successive Treble and ensured the Spanish capital will have two representatives in the last four.
With Augusto Fernandez in for the suspended Fernando Torres, Atleti were more solid in midfield and they completely nullified the Catalan outfit's front three. Gabi fired over early on and from there on in the atmosphere was rocking.
They took a deserved lead as Griezmann slammed an unstoppable header into the top corner and from there it was advantage Atleti.
Barca huffed and puffed, but they were unable to blow the immovable house of Diego Godin and Lucas Hernandez down. The home side sat tight and countered and eventually sealed the win after a late surge from Filipe Luis saw Andres Iniesta commit a handball in the area. Griezmann did the rest and the Calderon erupted. They believe they can win it, and who would bet against them?
GK Jan Oblak, 7 -- The Slovenian stopper kept another clean sheet and truth be told, other than one smart stop from Luis Suarez, he had little to do. Oozes confidence and the backline rarely seem ruffled with him behind them.
DF Juanfran, 7 -- Was in the wars in the first leg and little changed on Wednesday night when he was on the receiving end of some tough treatment from the Barcelona wide men. Was solid in defence, albeit was unable to attack as much as he might have liked.
DF Diego Godin, 8 -- Solid as a rock. Put everything on the line for his side, won nearly all his personal battles, whether they came in the air or on the ground. Also got a black eye for his troubles. The emblem of this Atletico Madrid side, he is simply the best centre-back in world football.
DF Lucas Hernandez, 8 -- The young Frenchman put in his most impressive display in an Atleti shirt yet and helped keep Lionel Messi, Neymar and Suarez quiet -- no mean feat. Has improved immensely with a run in the first team and he repaid the confidence Simeone showed in him by handing him a start. Jose Maria Gimenez will have a job getting back in the side at this rate.
DF Filipe Luis, 8 -- The Brazilian was impeccable defensively, completely nullifying Messi's attacking output with relative ease. Going forwards he was a key player, linking up well with Yannick Carrasco and Koke. It was his bold run, stepover and pass that resulted in the penalty that put the icing on the cake for his side.
MF Saul, 9 -- The 21-year-old has enjoyed a stellar season in the Spanish capital, however Wednesday night's performance was perhaps the best of the lot. From a nominal position on the right-hand side he tucked into a compact midfield and was a force both in attack and defence. It was his sublime control, touch and technique to provide an inch-perfect cross for Griezmann to nod home the opener. He also hit the bar with a looping header. Must surely go to Euro 2016 with Spain.
MF Gabi, 8 -- The all-action man in the middle of the park. Given extra protection with the inclusion of Augusto, his pressing game helped suffocate Ivan Rakitic, Iniesta and co in the middle of the park. A real captain's display.
MF Augusto Fernandez, 7 -- While the Argentine was not heavily involved in his actions, his presence contributed enormously to the victory. The 30-year-old protected the back four, freeing Saul, Koke and Gabi to harry and hassle the visiting midfield and block the supply line to the front three.
MF Koke, 8 -- The midfielder is enjoying a great end to the season and is going from strength to strength. His set piece delivery was spot on and one powerful run and cutback almost resulted in a goal. A real star.
FW Yannick Carrasco, 8 -- The Belgian flyer was electric at times and stretched Gerard Pique and Javier Mascherano on many an occasion. Could have won a penalty and tested Marc-Andre ter Stegen from distance. If he can improve his decision making, he will be a world-class player.
FW Antoine Griezmann, 9 -- Man of the match, the difference between the two sides, Los Colchoneros' hero once again. When his side need him, he invariably steps up to the plate and Wednesday night was no different. His first was a bullet header, while he held his nerve to fire home the late penalty and seal a historic comeback.
Antoine Griezmann followed up his first half goal via header with a cooly taken penalty late in the second half.
MF Thomas Partey, NR -- Brought on for Carrasco in the 74th minute to inject fresh legs into a tiring side.
MF Angel Correa, NR -- Replaced Griezman in stoppage time. Helped provide legs up top late on.
DF Stefan Savic, NR --On for Fernandez in stoppage time. Saw the game out and helped waste time.

Ecuador Backtracks on Criminal Justice Reforms, Increases Penalties for Drug Selling
Move Comes as Other South American Countries Take Steps to Scale Back Drug War

Contact:

Hannah Hetzer 917-701-7060

Tony Newman 646-335-5384

In a disappointing move, Ecuador increased penalties for small-scale drug sellers yesterday, reversing reforms approved last year that differentiated between possession of small amounts of drugs and larger quantities with intent to sell, where there had previously been no differentiation. However, yesterday the National Assembly voted to modify the criminal code and toughen penalties once again.
The vote took place after Ecuadorian President Rafael Correa said that small-scale sellers (or "microtraffickers") were "poisoning the population." "Do we want to end drug use in youth? We have to jail microtraffickers (…) I have called for higher sanctions for microtraffickers," President Correa said in September, calling this measure "preventative prison."
"Ecuador's backtracking on drug policy reform is extremely disappointing," says Hannah Hetzer, Senior Policy Manager of the Americas for the Drug Policy Alliance. "This won't do anything to protect youth from drug use, while filling Ecuadorian prisons with people – mostly women – who are often forced into the drug trade, either out of violence or economic necessity."
Yesterday's modifications raised the penalties for sale of "small quantities" of certain drugs from 2 to 6 months to 1 to 3 years in prison and for "medium-scale trafficking" from 1 to 3 years to 3 to 5 years.
Increasingly, Latin American policymakers are speaking out against prohibition and are highlighting its devastating effects on the hemisphere. Uruguay became the first country to legalize marijuana in 2013, and leaders such as Colombian President Juan Manuel Santos have called for alternatives to the war-on-drugs approach.
"The 2014 reforms were an important step forward in making the criminal justice system fairer and led to the release of over 2,200 people from prison," said Hannah Hetzer. "At a time when the United States and countries in Latin America are taking meaningful steps towards criminal justice reform, it's sad to see Ecuador going backwards."

The Girls'Senior Secondary School is situated on the outskirts of Village Sri Gurusar Modia , Tehsil : Suratgarh. , Distt. Sri Ganga Nagar, the Pious Birth Place of Hazoor Maharaj Ji. It is located in calm and serene atmosphere away from the din and dust of cities. The students of this School study in tranquil and hygienically fit atmosphere which promotes concentration of the mind and brain.


The Eiden Project is a 501c3 building fund established to sup- port the construction of a spiritual, educational, and social complex for our rapidly growing Pico/Robertson Jewish com- munity.
Affordable housing opportunities have compelled a number of young Jewish families to relocate near South La Cienega; thus, our diverse community was born. In just over five years, we have established a thriving synagogue with both Chabad and Sephardic Minyanim, founded a successful Jewish Montessori New Learning Center, and outgrown three locations.
We are now launching the next phase of our mission. Our goal is to erect the most unique, multifaceted Jewish community center in the Greater Los Angeles area, offering an expanded synagogue and preschool, fully functional social hall, and stand-alone Mikvah for women – in one inclusive structure.
Our social hall will serve as a treasured cultural center for the Los Angeles community, providing versatile spaces for occasions both large and small. The facility will feature comprehensive services and state-of-the-art amenities, including two fully equipped catering kitchens.
The mitzvah of Taharat Hamishpacha is central to the Jewish people as its observance brings holiness and purity into the lives of families. Our goal is to erect a discreet and luxurious women's Mikvah with five-star amenities, integrated with a mobile reservation system.
With 65 children in attendance and an extensive waiting list, The Jewish Montessori Learning Center (TJM) is renowned for its nurturing environment and innovative approach to education. The TJM staff is dedicated to providing an active setting where children are excited to learn and grow.
Rabbi Avraham Zajac currently heads Chabad of South La Cienega (Sola), and does so with clear leadership. The Sola congregation has outgrown three locations in less than 5 years. Attendance on Shabbat and High Holidays is beyond capacity, and there are no membership dues.
The Sephardic Minyan has brought acclaimed cantors from around the world to lead Shabbat and high- holiday services. Sephardic supporters of Chabad are able to retain their cultural history, and pass on their beautiful melodies and customs to the next generation.
What is the Montessori Education difference?
Imagine an education system that trains students to be creative innovators and leaders without the use of grades, tests or homework.
The Montessori Education is taught in a loving and child-centered environment where children are excited to learn and grow. The Montessori Education believes in respecting the uniqueness of each child, and strives to foster critical thinking and self-expression, by nourishing individual and innate curiosities.
At our Jewish Montessori Learning Center (TJM), we understand the importance of bringing yiddishkeit to life through hands on projects and experiences.
All this maximizes their excitement to learn, grow and prepare them for 21st Century challenges and beyond.
Our social hall will serve as a treasured cultural center for the Los Angeles community. The facility will provide versatile and elegant spaces for large and small occasions and will feature comprehen- sive services and amenities, including state-of-the-art technology and two catering kitchens.
The observance of Taharat Mishpacha is central to the Jewish people, bringing closeness to G-d and between spouses. Ritual immersion in the Mikvah is a profoundly spiritual time for women, and the process involved should be comfortable and pleasant. Our pristine, discreet Mikvah will have the look and feel of a modern luxury spa, featuring five-star amenities, private waiting areas, and well stocked preparation rooms. Visitors will enjoy a truly relaxing and tranquil experience, and leave feeling refreshed and rejuvenated. Convenient options will be made available to book visits in advance, and avoid excessive wait times. The new Mikvah iPhone and Android app will allow for planning ahead without ever making a phone call.
Many Sephardic Jews consider themselves students of the Lubavitcher Rebbe and believers in Chabad philosophy, but also wish to maintain their own unique culture and melodies. They desire a synagogue that will enable their children to learn the sounds and customs of their grandparents. The Sephardic Minyan at Sola strives to be that synagogue by blending the teachings of the Rebbe with authentic Sephardic traditions.
The Torah refers to prayer as "the service of the heart." Chabad of Sola has demonstrated the meaning of those words to hundreds of Jewish visitors.
The rituals involved in Chasidic prayer empower Jews from all backgrounds to connect with G-d on a more joyous and personal level; expressing themselves through song, dance, and meditative worship.
The Communal Center for Jewish Life will feature a Mikvah, Pre-School and Synagogue, Social Hall, Youth Center and Adult Classes.

Lionel Messi tests positive for covid-19 – PSG
Benjamin Miracle Send an email 2 weeks ago
Lionel Messi is one of four Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) players to have tested positive for Covid-19, the club said in a statement on Sunday.
The other three players are Juan Bernat, Sergio Rico and Nathan Bitumazala.
All players are "in isolation and are subject to the appropriate health protocol," the team said.
PSG is scheduled to face Vannes in the French Cup's round of 32 on Monday.
France registered 232,200 new cases of Covid-19 on Friday, the highest daily number registered across Europe since the beginning of the pandemic, according to data from the country's Health Ministry.
Since joining PSG from Barcelona in August, Messi has scored just one Ligue goal, though he has netted five in five Champion League matches.
Back in November Messi won his seventh Ballon d'Or title.
It was a a record-extending win for Messi, who now has two more titles than his arch rival Cristiano Ronaldo.
Although comparatively it might be considered a relatively down year at club level for Messi, the 34-year-old Argentine played a vital role in helping Argentina win the Copa América title earlier this year.
He also finished as the Spanish league's top scorer and scored two goals as Barca won the Copa del Rey.
Messi previously won the Ballon d'Or award in 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012, 2015, and 2019.

Q: Add XML file to the file list I want to add the contents of an XML file to doxygen generated documentation. I added the XML file to the INPUT tag of the doxygen configuration file. However, while the XML file is listed in the file list, the contents of the file are not shown. What do I have to do to include the contents?

A: Doxygen does not have native support for parsing XML, so you cannot use INPUT, but you can include the contents of an XML file in the output.
Suppose your XML file is called test.xml and is located in directory xml (relative to where doxygen is run). Then you can use the following comment block:
/** @page xml_example My XML File
 *  Here is my xml file included in the doxygen output:
 *  @verbinclude test.xml
 */

to make sure doxygen can find the XML file you need to set the path to the xml directory
EXAMPLE_PATH = xml

Augmented Reality – The Future is Visual
Industry leaders within the construction world know how to get things done. In fact, given that buildings and structures have been around as long as we have as a species, it could be safe to assume that we have discovered everything that is worth knowing about construction and its manifold uses. For instance, recent archaeological developments show that concrete, while the exact dates are difficult to deduce, has been used for building purposes for somewhere between 9,000 and 12,000 years. During that time, advances have continuously been made in relation to tools, uses, design and procedures, enabling us to reach a point where cutting edge technology and scientific discovery is simply a part of what we do. However, given that this is an industry that is forever moving forward, striving to reach the next level of skill and service, it begs the question; where do we go next?
Augmented Reality is a piece of technology that has been spoken about for many years. From its inception, the potential for it to change the world we live in immeasurably has been both feared and anticipated in equal measure. It is a highly speculative area that few have been able to tap into effectively. The longer the world watches and waits to see how Virtual Reality and Augmented Reality (AR/VR) will be used, the louder the voices are dismissing it as a fad with no real benefit. However, given that the global spending on Augmented Reality for 2020 was somewhere in the region of $19B, an 80% increase on the previous year, perhaps it is time that the world, and the construction industry in particular, started taking notice. In fact, developments in the area are already becoming commonplace in some aspects of construction work.
The story of how Augmented Reality started to become a tool within the industry goes back a number of years. In April, 2017, vGIS Inc., a Canadian company specializing in collaboration software designed technology for the Tom's River Municipal Utilities Authority (TRMUA) in New Jersey to quite literally see through the ground. TRMUA became the first municipality in the world to utilize this technology that, at the time, was still in its infancy. Using holographic GIS (Geographic Information Systems), vGIS Inc. used the Microsoft Hololens glasses as the platform for their vGIS software. This combination, along with the robust mapping work that the municipality had completed, allowed the wearer to see any subterranean utility lines. Incredibly, the workers on any public project had access to real-time in-field visuals of any water, electricity, drain or sewer lines and pipes without breaking stride.
Notwithstanding the time saving benefits of such technology, the ability to work in a safe and secure manner was revolutionary. At the time, Len Bundra, IT/GIS Director of Toms River MUA said, "The TRMUA has built a robust Geographic Information System (GIS) using ESRI's ArcGIS Online Services. With our utility infrastructure and data now online, we can have real-time collaboration with our field crews. Field workers can now literally 'see' utility lines beneath their feet, when viewed through the Microsoft HoloLens. This takes GIS to a whole new dimension of dynamic mapping and data retrieval."
"Current utility-locating equipment doesn't take advantage of the wealth of data that already exists in municipal databases."
Additionally, the creators of the software, vGIS Inc., believed that the venture was evidence of the positive effects of taking a collaborative approach, combining cutting edge technology with pre-existing information. On launching the project, Alec Pestov, CEO of vGIS Inc. said, "Current utility-locating equipment doesn't take advantage of the wealth of data that already exists in municipal databases. Toms River MUA has a vision of how utility systems management should evolve, and we're pleased to be their technology partner to bring their vision to life. Working together, vGIS Inc. and TRMUA have been able to create a completely new type of utilities-management platform by leveraging ESRI's ArcGIS, Microsoft HoloLens and Microsoft Azure technologies."
Since that ground-breaking foray into the industry, there has been steady progress and incremental improvements to the technology on offer. The insight that this project offered, primarily the opportunity to use existing maps and documents to give construction workers a fascinating advantage when navigating the job site, has grown to be a popular one. Virtual tours of existing spaces, allowing for remote understanding of the location, has been adopted throughout the industry. While alongside these advancements, architectural work has also begun reaping the benefits of these products; virtually touring buildings that are yet to be built being of huge benefit to a project. It seems that visualization, in each of these cases, is a key factor in the success of the products and tech. It is at this juncture, that VisualLive comes in.
VisualLive is a Tempe, AZ, company behind HoloLive, the first platform available to the AEC market that ''allows real-time 3D visualization, collaboration and field to office communication.'' The company describes its product offering as ''off-the-shelf augmented reality software on Microsoft HoloLens, Android, and iOS for design, engineering, and construction companies.'' What this means is that the company has designed an interface that is compatible with over 70 3D file formats, allowing the user to push large BIM/CAD files to a range of devices in one click. The opportunities that this software now offers is both astounding and thrilling. At every stage of the project, from planning and design through to verification and inspection, VisualLive's technology can enhance the experience and create a fluid and intuitive experience for the worker. The data is cloud-based, ensuring that it can be accessed quickly in the field and, according to VisualLive themselves, the software ''quickly converts … files, keeping all geometries, textures, and materials, so that they are optimized while maintaining the critical information and data.''
While the company is not the sole provider of this type of product, it is clear that the platform it has developed is proving to be incredibly successful throughout the construction industry. VisualLive now provides its services to over 1,500 commercial clients. From a macro perspective, it would seem that, since the pioneering use of this tech in Tom's River Municipality, the scope and opportunity to provide tangible benefits has hugely increased. By enabling private companies to push designs and relevant data to devices in addition to utilizing multiple devices and platforms, the reach of this software is now far greater than it was.
"VisualLive now provides its services to over 1,500 commercial clients."
Though the use of augmented reality is still most comfortable in the gaming and sales industries, it is becoming apparent that this technology is not something to be feared in construction. Reports suggest that the use of AR globally will again increase by a staggering 77% in the next two years. While these figures are speculative and may be subject to revision given the difficulties faced around the world, they provide hope nonetheless. Benefits to the construction industry, from training and planning through to real-time collaboration and on-site safety issues, show that the potential for a technological revolution is already here. While construction may well have been around for 12,000 years, it would seem that our learning journey is far from over.

For those who might still be wondering why America is rotting from within, please find 45 minutes to watch Bill Moyers recent interview with Mark Leibovich, author of This Town, a best selling expose of how crony capitalism has become pervasive in our nation's capital.
After watching this clip, I think there is little doubt that people will understand how public service has become a major for profit undertaking; I think people may also feel the need to take a shower. This is truly a must view as Leibovich names names and does not pull any punches in doing so.
Washington is clearly filled with a pack of losers. But unfortunately the real losers are the American public.
I thank the regular reader who brought this clip to my attention.

Why Was Australian Chris Lane Really Murdered?
I beg your indulgence today as I navigate off our traditional economic landscape to weigh in on the senseless, cold-blooded murder in Oklahoma of Chris Lane, an Australian student-athlete attending East Central University.
This situation bothers me and assuredly countless others on so many levels. While initial reports from many outlets would have us believe that this murder stemmed from bored teens looking for some form of sadistic fun and pleasure, are we so naive as to accept that on face value without looking deeper?
So who should be the next chairman of the Federal Reserve?
While we are fed a regular diet of drivel from those who might believe they know what is in the best interest of our nation, these political insiders might want to look a little further for truly informed opinion. To whom should they listen?
Obama on Dodd-Frank: Is He Serious?
Three full years after the passage of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, less than 40 percent of the watered-down rules within the reform have actually been written.
And those that have fall mostly under the heading of low-hanging fruit.
President Obama played the populist card again yesterday, calling on Congress and the independent regulators to complete their work on this reform.
Does President Obama think the American public actually believes Wall Street has been or will be reformed via Dodd-Frank? Really? Is he serious?
