Axiom Japan change from monety

January 27, 2012 Posted by admin

US deficit spending is $1.4 trillion dollars, Bernanke is flooding banks with cash, interest rates are at record lows, mortgage rates are at record lows, and velocity of money is falling like a rock.

Excess Reserves

Of the $1.8 trillion Bernanke has added to base money supply since the start of the recession, nearly all of it is sitting parked at the Fed as excess reserves.

Interest Paid on Excess Reserves

As you can see, banks have parked close to $1.6 trillion with the Fed earning .25 percent annually. This is free money to the banks to the tune of $4,000,000,000 per year for doing nothing.

In short, banks would rather have $4 billion in free money at a measly .25 percent than make much more money by lending it out. This indicates two things:

  1. Money Multiplier Theory is nonsense
  2. Banks are still capital impaired and/or banks have no credit-worthy borrowers who wish to borrow money

If and when banks do start lending, it will not be because all those excess reserves have tempted them. Rather it will be because banks feel they have credit-worthy borrowers.

In the meantime, debt deflation rolls on, distorted of course by global central bank stimulus everywhere one looks, notably (the Fed, ECB, China, Bank of England) and coming up shortly, the Bank of Japan.

As I have stated before, competitive global currency debasement is a good environment for gold.

Let’s wrap this up with one final chart.

Total Credit Market

As you can see the total credit market is well over $50 trillion. Yet a large number of misguided souls believe printing $1.8 trillion of which $1.6 trillion is parked as excess reserves will cause hyperinflation.

It won’t. Hyperinflation is a political event, not a monetary one. Besides, the US has more gold than any other nation. For further discussion, please see Hyperinflation Nonsense in Multiple Places.

Yes, the US is going to have a “debt moment”, just as Europe is having one now and Japan will have soon enough. However, that moment may be quiet a long ways away (or not), but hyperinflation will not be the result when it happens.

Generally recognised sovereign internet

January 13, 2012 Posted by admin

To help keep costs in line, the fiber links are for consumer accounts only, at least so far. Jasper has been an ardent foe of broadband caps, where ISPs place a limit on the amount of data a customer can use each month. However, when it comes to delivering broadband to businesses, he recognizes that a superfast gigabit connection to a business will have a very different usage pattern than one delivered to a consumer. Yet currently Sonic.net only charges businesses a bit more than residential services at $45 and $90 respectively). Under a gigabit network, that lack of price differential and the possibility for a business to use all of their connection (or even half) becomes unsustainable.

“We haven’t built our fiber past any businesses yet, and we did it intentionally,” Jasper said. “With our stance on no capping, I have a little bit of concern delivering 1 gig to a business at $89.95 and them using half of it, because that could really happen.”

Sonic.net has a decade and a half modeling usage for consumers at lower prices than rivals offer, but with businesses and their demand for broadband, Jasper says there are a lot of unknowns. For example, the lack of applications for gigabit networks probably helps Jasper here, as does the fact that most consumers typically use downlink services to consume content. And currently there’s a limit to how much they can consume, even with three or four TVs downloading or streaming HD content.

“Consumption is still constrained by the number of TVs and hard drives and even though everyone eventually has more stuff, practically speaking it really does end up normalizing down to a reasonable level,” Jasper says. He points out that the inbound bandwidth costs and middle mile bandwidth costs are getting less and less expensive, which means that customers downloading content isn’t a giant cost suck. But a business might hook a data center or several servers up on a gigabit connection and use that to send a lot of traffic out. And that could get expensive.

So for those watching U.S. broadband policy, between Google’s plans to deploy fiber to the home in both Kansas Cities, a few municipal networks, Verizon’s FiOS network and Sonic.net’s plans, we’re getting more people to a gigabit. It can be done, so let’s see what we can learn as these companies push ahead. And when others say it can’t be done, perhaps we’ll have the information that proves them wrong.

The theme kia

January 6, 2012 Posted by admin

Hickman, 23, was killed in Baghdad by a roadside bomb that ripped through his armored truck Nov. 14 — eight years, seven months and 25 days after the U.S. invasion of Iraq began.

He was the 4,474th member of the U.S. military to die in the war, according to the Pentagon.

And he may have been the last.

With the final U.S. combat troops crossing out of Iraq into Kuwait, those who held Hickman dear are struggling to come to terms with the particular poignancy of his fate. As the unpopular war that claimed his life quietly rumbles to a close, you can hear within his inner circle echoes of John F. Kerry’s famous 1971 congressional testimony on Vietnam:

How do you ask a man to be the last man to die for a mistake?

“Thank God if David is the last one to die, because that means nobody else will have to go through this,” said Logan Trainum, one of Hickman’s closest friends. “But it’s crazy that he died. No matter your position on this war — if you’re for or against it — I think everybody thinks we shouldn’t have been over there anymore.”

U.S. combat operations in Iraq officially ended months before Hickman’s unit shipped out from Fort Bragg in May. His platoon spent most of its deployment on “presence patrols,” walking through Iraqi neighborhoods to remind insurgents that the U.S. military was still there, said Spec. Zack Zornes, who served in Hickman’s platoon.

Hickman liked the military, Zornes said. “But there were days on end where me and Hickman would be sitting in his room, being like: ‘Why are we even here? What are we doing?’ We were just doing police work. I totally agree with Hickman’s friends and family who are mad. We had no reason to be there anymore.”

Whatever one thinks of the war—I supported the invasion but have long since argued that it was time to pull the plug on the ensuing nation building folly—the death of a soldier after the announcement that we’re ending the fight is particularly tragic. That the war has been going on since Hickman was thirteen years old and that he volunteered for not only the Army but the airborne infantry fully knowing that he might be called to risk his life in Iraq doesn’t diminish that.

The school-book expresses most of the themes that would come Forum KIA roast Trimmer’s later works, such as her emphasis on retaining social hierarchies

Usual, this amounts to a corporate epithet, logo

Poorly George Michael is heading home for Christmas after a nasty bout of pneumonia left him stuck in an Austrian hospital.

It was feared George would have to tuck into turkey and all the trimmings in his sickbed after the deadly lung infection took hold last month, forcing the star to scrap his entire tour.

The legendary Faith crooner is ecstatic after being allowed to leave the ward behind to carry on his recovery at home in London over the festive period.

And his new fella Fadi Fawaz is even more pleased he won’t have to open his presents all alone.

Speaking to reporters outside the hospital, he said: “Christmas at home. I cannot stop smiling today, the best day ever. Nothing to worry about, happy days.”

A spokesperson for Michael adds: “He is getting better and better.”

Good old George – at least he has an excuse not to join in charades after dinner.

(WENN)

The attacker who killed at least four people when he opened fire on a Christmas market in Liège, Belgium, also murdered a cleaning woman before the rampage, police have confirmed.

Police said the corpse of the woman was discovered at a garage that the attacker, Nordine Amrani, 33, used to grow marijuana and keep his weapons.

The 45-year-old woman was shot in the head on Tuesday before Amrani travelled to Liège to carry out his attack.

At least four people died and around 122 were injured after Amrani fired shots and threw grenades in the crowded town square.

Amrani, who had previously been convicted on drugs and gun offences and had spent time in prison, was expected to arrive for police questioning when he launched the attack.

Armed with grenades, a handgun and also a machine gun he instead climbed onto a platform near to the Place Saint-Lambert, from where he fired shots and threw explosives onto a busy shopping street.

The dead included a 15-year-old boy who died “on the spot” and a 17-year-old boy. A 75-year-old woman and a baby later died of their injuries, while the gunman was also found dead, reportedly of self-inflicted gunshot wounds.

Students and residents marked the attacks with a silent vigil for the victims on Wednesday afternoon.

Amrani was known to be a “gun freak”, police said. He was convicted for five years after police found a dozen firearms in his metal workshop, including an AK-47 machine gun. He was also found guilty of drugs offences after growing 2,800 marijuana plants.

Before the attack he transferred money into his wife’s account with the words “I love you my love. Good luck” reported local news sources.

The killings in Belgium were mirrored by a similar attack in Florence, Italy,where a right-wing extremist killed two Senegalese street vendors and wounded three others before shooting himself on Tuesday. About 300 people marched in protest after the attacks by 50-year-old accountant Gianluca Casseri.

Although it is known as a tough, industrial city of 200,000 with a history of gun- and gang-related violence, Liège has been shocked by the attacks.

Belgium’s King Albert and Queen Paola II visited the Place Saint-Lambert on Tuesday and paid their respects to the dead.

Belgian prime minister Elio di Rupo said there were “no words” to describe the tragedy.

“We think first and foremost of the innocent victims, their family and friends. We also think of all the people working at the scene and more generally of the people of Liege.

“The whole country shares the pain of the families affected. We share the shock of the population.”

David Cameron offered his condolences after the attack. A Number 10 Spokesperson said: “The prime minister called Belgian Prime Minister Di Rupo this evening to pass on his sympathy in the wake of the appalling attacks in Liege. He said that his thoughts and those of very many people in Britain were with all those involved.”

Stuff objects are given as gifts

December 12, 2011 Posted by admin

Nothing excites me more during the holidays than finding the perfect gift for a friend or family member and wrapping it up so that the package looks thoughtful and inviting; however, nothing makes me feel more guilty than all the wasted paper, tissue and ribbons that I have to throw away during the holidays. Americans use more than 8,000 tons of wrapping paper each holiday season, which equals approximately 50,000 trees. Between Thanksgiving and New Year’s Day the average American household trash output increases this amount by another 5 million extra tons. So this year I set out to find ways to make festive gifts with a lot less guilt and waste.

1) DIY Gift Wrap:

Homemade gift-wrap is a great way to recycle and is a lot more fun for children. You can use recycled brown craft paper or the inside of brown paper grocery bags and paint them, add glitter and/or use stamps. This creates a festive one of kind recycled wrap — great for grandparents. This is a very affordable way to create green gift-wrap. Here is a great source of bulk 70% recycled craft paper:

According to the Carnegie Mellon Green Practices initiative, “If every American family wrapped just three presents in reused materials, it would save enough paper to cover 45,000 football fields.” Old books and magazines are the perfect material to reuse for gift wrap. You can take old magazines and use the images, like pictures of waves from old surfing magazines, for your ocean-loving friends and family. Additionally, images of cars from old car magazines are great for boys of all ages. Most newsstands and bookstores throw out old magazines after the new issues hit the stand — so, if you talk to your local store you may be able to get some great back issues for free.

2) Reusable Gifts Wraps & Bags:

Cloth reusable wraps or bags are another way to create a beautiful package without creating paper waste. There are many small companies making festive bags and wraps in a huge variety of colors. This is great for family gifts. You can start a tradition in your home where you reuse these bags every holiday season; however, it can become a very expensive option if you were to use cloth for all of your gift giving.

For those of you that are very ambitious and great with a needle or thread, you can sew your own gift bags. Reusing cloth makes gift bags/wraps much more affordable. I am not qualified to give sewing advice or instruction, but the following link has easy to follow how to guide to sewing your own reusable bags.

3) Eco Wrapping Paper:
If you are short on time and not very crafty, the easiest way to have more green gift wrap is buying eco gift wrap that made from recycled paper and/ or sustainable natural fibers. There are many great options, such as the paper from Fish Lips Paper Designs.

There are even seeded papers seeded with wild flower seeds that you can plant after you open your gifts available here.

There are so many ways to give our gifts this holiday season in a more thoughtful and green way. After all, the way we give can have as much impact as what we are giving.

I wish you all a very special (and green) holiday season.

GiftRocket, a graduate of this year’s Y Combinator spring class, launched behind a great idea. The startup wanted to marry gift carding with location-based services, so that friends could send gift cards to each other that could only be accessed once they “checked in” to a certain location. So, for example, if you really wanted your friend to try out the coffee at a certain local coffee shop, you could send them a gift card to that coffee joint, which they could only redeem from the shopt itself.

As Robin pointed out in March, the idea was a simplified version of Venmo’s Gifi, which basically had users combine Venmo and Foursquare apps to achieve the same effect. I say “was”, because GiftRocket is today moving away from the “check in” portion of their service to an even more simplified and universal approach to sending personalized gift cards.

Beginning today, GiftRocket users can send and receive digital gift cards via email or Facebook, using PayPal, a bank account transfer, or check. Basically, GiftRocket is now an easy P2P money donation service, as users can decide to send $50 to their mother for Mother’s Day, and in a personalized email say, “Mom here’s $50 for you to use at Barnes & Nobles”. GiftRocket doesn’t involve merchants directly, but GiftRocket Co-founder Kapil Kale tells me that he thinks this social pressure/proof element will assure that people use the virtualized gift cards in the way they were intended. And the best part? Their gift cards don’t expire.

When fabric objects are inclined as gifts, in myriad cultures they are traditionally packaged in some manner. Championing example, in Western culture, gifts are usually wrapped in wrapping paper and accompanied via a largesse note which may note the advantage, the receiver Prezent big shot, and the giver’s name. In Chinese background, red wrapping connotes luck.

The award Sound of Mexico

December 3, 2011 Posted by admin

Apple’s iTunes might be the undisputed leader in digital music, but Google’s new Google Music service is poised to win the fight in the long run.

Google Music, which launched to the public today, is a free service that allows you to upload your digital music library to the cloud so that it can be played anywhere with a viable internet connection. The search engine giant also added the ability to purchase music through its Android Market, which makes it a direct competitor to iTunes.

Earlier this week, Apple preemptively launched a new “cloud” service of its own, called iTunes Match. For $25 a year, the service will allow you unlimited downloads on all tracks that you’ve previously purchased or are already in your library at no additional cost. You can download and sync all your music across all iOS devices (iPhone, iPod Touch, iPad, Desktop running iTunes software). Other than that, Apple didn’t add anything new to iTunes in regards to music.

Up to speed? Great. Now I can explain why Google Music is possibly the biggest threat iTunes has ever encountered, and why it’s likely to become the music service of choice for most people in the future.

Music Distribution & Artist Hub

Right now, the only legitimate way for copyrighted music to get recognized through iTunes is if the record label that represents the music strikes a deal with Apple to have it appear within the iTunes store. There are lots of small and relatively unknown artists represented in the store, but nowhere near the number of people in the country who seriously consider themselves musicians — each with their own library of original songs. In the past, it didn’t make financial sense for Apple to add these unknowns without some kind of guarantee that they would make money.

Google Music, however, has taken the opposite approach. Its Artist Hub allows virtually anyone with the rights to their own music to sell their songs through the Android Market for a nominal $25 fee. Instead of turning away musicians with little marketable value, Google Music provides them with the necessary tools to turn their passion into a profitable business. It’s very similar to the early days of blogging when Google rolled out AdSense.

The sheer potential to turn your musical work into a viable business is going to drive any serious musician to set up shop on Google Music. With that kind of music library, all Google has to do is sit back and wait for the talented ones to get popular. However, “sitting back” isn’t actually Google’s strategy, which brings me to my next point…

Music Discovery & Promotion

Having one of the largest networks of up-and-coming music artists doesn’t do much if people never unearth the good stuff. Until now, the only way to discover good music depended mostly on the artist and/or a large company that spent money getting the word out about it.

Google Music is designed to change that. First of all the service, it integrates with Google’s social network Google+. If you allow it, purchases and listening activity can appear within Google+’s news feed, prompting exposure of songs to your intimate social circle (where you have lots of influence).

Also, when you purchase a new song or album through the Android Market, it enables all of your friends to listen to those purchases  — in their entirety — once. It’s bound to spur digital music sales, or at the very least some new exposure to artists you otherwise never would have heard about.

The discovery functionality in iTunes pales in comparison to Google’s. It does have services like the failure that is Ping as well as the ability to share the music libraries of others around you, but both of those methods require you to out of your way to find something new.

Music Store Selection and Licensing

One area that iTunes greatly excels beyond Google Music is the ability that it gives you to purchase a digital download of the studio version of “Sussudio” by Phil Collins. This is because Google failed to reach an agreement with Warner Music Group to sell the song, meaning none of the music that Warner Music owns the rights to is available for sale in the Android Market. (You can get around this in some cases, because some of those tracks, the more popular ones, are available on compilation albums.)

Apart from “Sussudio,” the fact that Apple has a greater number of tracks available from all the major record labels isn’t actually much of a win for Apple. If Google Music does rise to popularity, people will figure out a way to add their music to the service, making Warner Music the only real loser.

In the future, Google will have the advantage because the popular artists of tomorrow will already be licensed and available for purchase. Apple’s iTunes, on the other hand, will have to play catch up. If Apple’s stronghold over music devices ever weakens, people will have little reason to keep using iTunes over Google Music.

Limitations

Both services aren’t without their limitations. Google Music caps the number of songs you can upload to 20,000, while iTunes Match allows you to upload 25,000. I did find that many tracks from well-known artists in my music library weren’t recognized by iTunes Match, and thus, are unable for unlimited download. This is certainly a pain in the ass since I paid money to gain access to my entire collection of songs. VentureBeat’s Sean Ludwig had a similar experience when he tested the service earlier this week.

Alternately, I can’t download any songs from my personal collection that I’ve uploaded to Google Music, (only tracks purchased through the Android Market can be downloaded for use on other devices.)

And since I’ve already been managing all the files in my music collection up until now, it’s not that much of a stretch for me to continue doing that in the event that I want to put my collection on other devices/platforms. If you see that as a major setback for Google Music, I’m not sure why. It’s not as if you spent any money to use it — something that can’t be said for iTunes Match.

Conclusion

Apple has dominated the digital music market for almost a decade, but the addition of iTunes Match doesn’t do much to secure the company’s lead in the future. The ability to download tracks rather than stream them through multiple devices seems like a step backwards in the age of constant connectivity.

And while Apple is missing the opportunity to broaden its music service to include the entire spectrum of digital artists, Google is more than obliged to step up. If the Google Music Artist Hub does take off, it’ll give the search giant the fuel to eventually become the leader in digital music. Why? Because unlike Apple, Google will already have music from future rock stars, pop artist sensations and break-out alternative bands. By the time that music makes it to iTunes, it’ll already be in second place for many people.

Last May at Google I/O, we launched Music Beta by Google with a clear ambition: to help people access their music collections easily from any device. Music Beta enabled you to upload your personal music collection (up to 20,000 songs) for free to the cloud so you could stream it anywhere, any time. Today, the beta service evolves into a broader platform: Google Music. Google Music is about discovering, purchasing, sharing and enjoying digital music in new, innovative and personalized ways.

Google Music helps you spend more time listening to your collection and less time managing it. We automatically sync your entire music library—both purchases and uploads—across all your devices so you don’t have to worry about cables, file transfers or running out of storage space. We’ll keep your playlists intact, too, so your “Chill” playlist is always your “Chill” playlist, whether you’re on your laptop, tablet or phone. You can even select the specific artists, albums and playlists you want to listen to when you’re offline.

Purchase and share
We also want to make it easy and seamless for you to grow your music collection. Today, we added a new music store in Android Market, fully integrated with Google Music.

The store offers more than 13 million tracks from artists on Universal Music Group, Sony Music Entertainment, EMI, and the global independent rights agency Merlin as well as over 1,000 prominent independent labels including Merge Records, Warp Records, Matador Records, XL Recordings and Naxos. We’ve also partnered with the world’s largest digital distributors of independent music including IODA, INgrooves, The Orchard and Believe Digital.

You can purchase individual songs or entire albums right from your computer or your Android device and they’ll be added instantly to your Google Music library, and accessible anywhere.

Good music makes you want to turn up the volume, but great music makes you want to roll down the windows and blast it for everyone. We captured this sentiment by giving you the ability to share a free full play of a purchased song with your friends on Google+.

Exclusively on Google Music
We’re celebrating our launch with a variety of music that you won’t find anywhere else, much of it free. There’s something for everyone, with a variety of free tracks to choose from:

  • The Rolling Stones are offering an exclusive, never-before-released live concert album, Brussels Affair (Live, 1973), including a free single, “Dancing with Mr. D.” This is the first of six in an unreleased concert series that will be made available exclusively through Google Music over the coming months.
  • Coldplay fans will find some original music that’s not available anywhere else: a free, live recording of “Every Teardrop Is A Waterfall”, a five-track live EP from their recent concert in Madrid and a remix of “Paradise” by Tiësto.
  • Busta Rhymes’s first single from his upcoming album, Why Stop Now (feat. Chris Brown), is available for free.
  • Shakira’s live EP from her recent concert in Paris and her new studio single, “Je L’Aime à Mourir” are both being offered up free.
  • Pearl Jam are releasing a live album from their 9/11/11 concert in Toronto, free to Google Music users.
  • Dave Matthews Band are offering up free albums from two live concerts, including new material from Live On Lakeside.
  • Tiësto is offering up a new mix, “What Can We Do” (feat. Anastacia), exclusively to Google Music users.

Artist hub
Whether you’re on a label or the do-it-yourself variety, artists are at the heart of Google Music. With the Google Music artist hub, any artist who has all the necessary rights can distribute his or her own music on our platform, and use the artist hub interface to build an artist page, upload original tracks, set prices and sell content directly to fans—essentially becoming the manager of their own far-reaching music store. This goes for new artists as well as established independent artists, like Tiesto, who debuts a new single on Google Music today.

Starting today, Google Music is open in the U.S. at market.android.com, and over the next few days, we will roll out the music store to Android Market on devices running Android 2.2 and above. You can also pick up the new music app from Android Market and start listening to your music on your phone or tablet today. And don’t forget to turn your speakers up to eleven.
