What’s it: Sovereign risk is credit risk attached to the sovereign debt where the government in a country will not pay its debt. It may be because the government doesn’t have the ability or will to do so. Long story short, it is the default risk on sovereign debt.
One of the main indicators is the sovereign rating issued by international rating agencies such as Standard and Poor’s, Moody’s, and Fitch Ratings. The highest rating is AAA (equivalent to Aaa by Moody’s), indicating high credit quality and the lowest default risk. Examples of AAA-rated countries are Singapore, Sweden, Switzerland, Australia, and Canada.
In general, countries rated BBB- or higher are considered investment-worthy. Meanwhile, bonds issued by countries with a BB + rating and below are speculative or junk bonds.
Why is sovereign risk important?
Sovereign risk has broad implications for the economy. It can lead to changes in taxes, subsidies, or regulations, exposing many businesses’ performance.
For example, the sovereign crisis in European Union countries such as Greece and Spain forced the governments in these countries to adopt austerity policies. To reduce the pressure on accumulated debt, they cut government spending programs, carried out privatizations, and raised taxes. These policies cause aggregate demand to fall in the short run, forcing many businesses to lower their production levels and weaken the economy.
The central bank also controls capital outflows to mitigate the bank run, a massive withdrawal of funds from the banking system. A bank run can lead to a crisis in the financial system.
When governments print money to pay debts, it leads to hyperinflation. It destroys the purchasing power of the domestic currency. People became distrustful of the domestic currency. They sell it and exchange it for a more stable currency like the US dollar. As a result, the domestic exchange rate against the US dollar falls.
Furthermore, sovereign risk is contagious. When one country experiences a sovereign crisis, it can spread to other countries. Contagion is high because many countries are connected to one another, both through financial transactions and transactions for goods and services.
The high level of sovereign risk also makes it difficult for interest rates in the economy to fall. Investors ask for a higher premium to compensate for this risk. That makes investment costs more expensive for businesses. Households also have to pay high-interest rates when they apply for loans.
Measuring sovereign risk
The measure of sovereign risk is reflected in the sovereign rating given by global rating agencies such as Moody’s, Standard and Poor (S&P), and Fitch Ratings.
The sovereign rating represents the chance for default of a country. The better the rating, the smaller the sovereign risk and the lower the risk of default. Below is a list of credit ratings from the highest (AAA) to lowest.
BBB- to AAA ratings fall into the investment-grade category, indicating sufficient capacity to meet payment obligations. Meanwhile, the ratings below (ranging from BB + to C) are in the speculative category, and D defaults.
Rating agencies assess risk using several indicators. They evaluate the country’s solvency and liquidity, the country’s political stability, and so on. The following are some of the variables for measuring sovereign risk:
- Institutional effectiveness
- Economic structure and prospects
- External liquidity and international investment position
- Fiscal performance and flexibility
- Monetary flexibility
Rating agencies assess how government institutions and policy-making affect economic fundamentals, promote balanced economic growth, and respond to economic or political shocks. They also consider transparency and accountability and the historical track record of sovereign debt payments.
Economic structure and economic prospects
Rating agencies measure the diversity and resilience of a country’s economy. Does the country rely on commodity output, manufacturing, or the service sector as the basis for economic growth?
Apart from that, the income level is another measure. Among the indicators are GDP per capita and its growth rate, which indicates the country’s prosperity and indirectly reflects the current and future potential tax and debt payment bases.
External liquidity and international investment position
The assessment includes several aspects, such as the status of a country’s currency in international transactions, the economy’s ability to generate foreign currency, and the position of assets and liabilities in foreign and local currencies. Among indicators are current account balance to GDP, trade balance to GDP, net foreign direct investment to GDP,
Fiscal performance and flexibility
Fiscal assessments reflect the views of rating agencies on the sustainability of fiscal budgets and their debt burden. They consider:
- Fiscal flexibility
- Long-term fiscal trends and vulnerabilities
- Debt structure
- Access to finance
- Potential risks arising from contingent liabilities
Some of the sovereign indicators considered are the change in net debt to GDP, primary balance to GDP, debt to GDP, and debt to revenues.
Monetary valuations consider the rating agency’s views on the monetary authority’s ability to fulfill its mandate while maintaining a balanced economy and mitigating economic shocks. The analysis includes an assessment of the exchange rate regime and the credibility of monetary policy.
The exchange rate regime affects the government’s ability to coordinate monetary policy with fiscal policy to support sustainable economic growth.
Meanwhile, to measure monetary policy’s credibility, they look at the inflation trend during the economic cycle. The effectiveness of the monetary mechanism on the real economy is also a consideration. Another factor is the depth and diversification of the financial system and capital markets.

Key words: autoimmune, disease, pathogenesis
In my research, I focus on gaining a better understanding the pathogenesis of autoimmune diseases. I have developed an independent, original research program, examining the role of cardiac resident cells and monocytes/macrophages in the inflammatory heart disease and the development of dilated cardiomyopathy. Recently, we have described a new pathway that IL-17A, a key Th17 cytokine, utilizes to drive dilated cardiomyopathy, by stimulating cardiac fibroblast to produce GM-CSF and induce proinflammatory differentiation of monocytyes. Our finding for the first time showed that cardiac fibroblast contribution to cardiac remodeling is not only through their collagen production but also by their production of cytokines and chemokines that then shapes the quality of cardiac infiltrate during myocarditis and resulting cardiac remodeling and fibrosis. Second, our findings highlighted that subtyping monocytes during myocarditis could be of potential interest since only inflammatory Ly6Chi (equivalent of CD14hi monocytes in humans) lead to dilated cardiomyopathy.
I have been also interested in the role of other Th cells subtypes in myocarditis and dilated cardiomyopathy, mainly Th2 driven eosinophilic myocarditis and role of eosinophils as well as innate lymphoid cells type 2 in the disease pathogenesis.

Burglars jailed over £50k spree
- Credit: Archant
TWO men who stole computers, jewellery, TVs and even a car in a £50,000 series of North Somerset burglaries are this week beginning jail sentences.
Roy Salisbury and Ean Sinclair were jailed for three-and-a-half years and three years respectively for their roles in the spree of break-ins.
Salisbury, aged 28, from Hayes in Middlesex, pleaded guilty to six counts of burglary after targeting homes in Clevedon’s Walton Road and Conygar Close, plus others in Weston, Worle, Hutton and Highbridge.
He asked for a further 22 break-ins across the district to be taken into consideration.
Sinclair, aged 29, of Midford, Dunster Crescent in Weston, admitted three crimes; the Conygar Close burglary plus Weston and Hutton raids.

The Bristol Crown Court judge offered praise for workers at Proper Job DIY store who alerted police to the two men after they were spotted buying a ‘burglary kit’.
After the hearing, investigating officer DC Phil Aspinall said he hoped the sentences would provide closure for people whose homes had been ransacked.

He said: “Between them, these men were responsible for causing 28 families the distress of having their homes broken into, their belongings gone through and often precious and irreplaceable items like jewellery taken.
“As a team, we’re now able to go back to each victim and tell them we’ve caught the men responsible. I hope this goes some way to helping them get over what has happened.”
Even after release, Salisbury and Sinclair will be banned from returning to North Somerset for five years.

The Ghosts of Khmer: Light and Memory
In the comfortable histories of our youth, genocide seemed an answered question; the retrograde horrors of a generation removed, a closed book. A decade before the present moment of uncertainty in our global existence, the photographer Binh Danh refused this pat conclusion. Danh’s early work compiled the Khmer Rouge regime’s eerie death portraits—taken in the moments before victims were executed—and transformed them into a living archive of proliferation: Danh devised a method for creating chlorophyll prints on tree leaves, and inscribed hundreds of portraits of lives lost in the Cambodian genocide upon the tree’s organic surfaces.
During his travels to the Tuol Sleng Genocide Museum, the former prison and execution site where the Khmer Rouge portraits were taken, Danh found himself drawn to views of the bleak rooms, cases filled with victim’s belongings, beds with shackles,and menacing outdoor spaces. Later, when conceiving of his recent works, Danh remarks, “I was not sure why the images of these places stood out to me. But in thinking about them I began to remember the images we saw from the prison at Abu Ghraib [in Iraq], and it occurred to me that I have actually been thinking about the images of Abu Ghraib since they appeared in the media several years ago. Maybe we have all been thinking about these images.”
In The Ghosts of Khmer: Light and Memory, we are invited to explore the issue of human individuality and responsibility, and the ways those concepts shift over time, in both the ethereal reflective surfaces of Danh’s large-scale daguerreotypes and the images’ paradoxical subject matter. Portraits of genocide victims etched on the daguerreotypes’ silver surfaces recall the bas-relief idols on the walls of Angkor Wat’s temples, which are also the subject of several of Danh’s images.
“With Angkor Wat,” says Danh, “here is this beautiful architectural achievement of art and religion and Buddhist culture. And it was through the beauty of the Angkor Wat temple that the Khmer Rouge emerged, as the regime sought above all to return Cambodia to its glory days. In order to do that, they had to remove anyone who did not go along with their ideology. This is a theme I return to: the darkness and beauty in our history.”
Revisiting the chlorophyll portraits in his current body of work, Danh documents the leaf images with daguerreotype photograms. “Once I make a chlorophyll print, the leaf is fragile and degraded. The daguerreotypes hold that ghostly quality of the chlorophyll print.” The reflective surfaces of Danh’s daguerreotypes act as a mirror, and the portraits are created at human proportions: “You will see the leaf and the portrait,” says Danh, “and you will see your own face overlaying the face of the victim.”
In these photograms Danh invests a personal discourse about the moral implications of photography. He found himself returning to the philosopher Roland Barthes’ description of the role of death in photographic works. Says Danh, “In an image of someone who has passed, they don’t know they’re dead, because they’re alive in the photograph. But we know they’re dead, because we have lived beyond their time.” In this way, continues Danh, “photographs change society and the way we think about time.”
Danh also considered a far earlier transformation in human perception in the process of making these highly reflective works: the introduction of the mirror. Prior to the moment in the thirteenth century when reflective silverized surfaces were popularized as mirrors, humans defined themselves as members of a group. “At the beginning of human evolution, we didn’t see ourselves in a way that required self-reflection. When mirrors became common, humans became individuals and stopped thinking in terms of the group.”
That essential conflict of human life—how we exist simultaneously as individuals, and as very small parts of a much larger pattern—is illustrated in both Danh’s transformative portraits of the dead, and his scenes of vast and ancient Buddhist statuary in symbiosis with the forest around it. Influenced by the early photograms of Henry Fox Talbot and cyanotype prints of nineteenth-century botanist Anna Atkins, Danh’s daguerreotype plates are glimmering tributes to the photographic moment, seeming to capture in monumental scale a world left behind, and a glimpse at the extremes of our tenuous existence.
An homage to both contemporary photographic theory and the black and white binary that defined early photography, the intensely argent surfaces of Danh’s works present a secondary imagery resembling a double exposure, a vibration of shadow and light around the composition’s edges. Whether in the stark chambers of injustice or the luminous expressions of monumental gods, Danh’s images record a secret energy at play in all human endeavors. As we contemplate the mysterious machinations of human destruction, we cannot lose sight of the generative mystery of the Buddha’s form, rising up from the forest floor.

Traditional Korean snacks you should try
South Korea is undoubtedly a food paradise. No matter what you want to eat, whether it’s a bowl of piping hot stewed tofu or ready-to-eat egg bread, you can buy it almost anywhere. Aside from the meals you can buy almost anywhere, traditional Korean snacks are also a hit to both locals and foreigners. Some of these good snacks have a rich and colorful history and are even served in the royal court, and some were invented and made popular because of their unique flavors. In this article we’ll be discussing the traditional snacks you should try when you visit South Korea.
Also known as Ppopgi, is a crunchy, sweet, toffee-like old-school candy that many Koreans loved in their childhood. In the past, stalls selling dalgona on the streets of Seoul were very common, but the number has been slowly decreasing over the years.
Dalgona candy is made up of only two ingredients: sugar and baking soda, stirring as little as possible. The weekend is a good parent-child bonding event, especially for parents who have no way to let their children be. Before the sugar mixture cools and hardens, prepare cookie cutters of different shapes and make different patterns on the candy.
Hotteok or Korean pancakes are popular street food that’s essentially pancakes stuffed with brown sugar, cinnamon, nuts, and seeds. The pancake dough is made with a mixture of ordinary rice flour and glutinous rice flour. It is chewy on the inside and crispy on the outside when it is fried. Different stalls have different kinds of flavors and add-ons, but honey and brown sugar are classic flavors that can never go wrong.
Korean honey cookies
Korean honey cookies or also known as “Yakgwa” is a type of traditional honey biscuit that’s shaped like a flower. These cookies are usually eaten during special occasions like “Chuseok”, but nowadays you can find them at bakeries and cafes being served with coffee or tea which compliments the taste of these cookies. When “Yakgwa” is translated into English, “yak” means medicine and “gwa” means sweet pertaining to the health benefits and sweetness of honey. This type of cookie is fried, not baked, and is made with simple ingredients like sesame seeds, honey, rice wine, and ginger. Korean honey cookies are also good to give as gifts for family and friends.
Pine rice cakes(Songpyeon)
Rice cakes, also known as tteok, are a staple food in Korean cuisine. In addition to savory dishes such as tteokbokki (spicy rice cake) and tteokguk (rice cake soup), you can also find it in desserts. For example, songpyeon is a very popular dessert, usually eaten during the Mid-Autumn Festival(Chuseok). Songpyeon is commonly filled with red bean paste and comes in a variety of colors and shapes. These colors are from natural ingredients such as cinnamon and dried fruit powders. It is said that it represents wealth and prosperity, and many families still gather to make this traditional Korean snack during the Mid-Autumn Festival.

5 Best and Worst Foods for Boosting Metabolism
While a calorie-restricted diet and an exercise plan are the keys to weight loss, your metabolism also plays a critical role in helping you shed those extra pounds. Metabolic rate is the number of calories your body burns at rest and converts to energy. Each individual is born with a different metabolic rate, men burn more calories than women, so they have a faster metabolism. Your metabolism is influenced by a number of factors, out of which, genetics are considered to have the biggest effect. Metabolism depends on your muscle mass ratio and weight, as well. However, it does not imply that just because you were born with a certain metabolism, it will remain the same for the rest of your life. Just like some food aid in weight loss and weight management, certain foods contain nutrients that can boost your metabolism. However, you should bear in mind that certain foods can wreak havoc on your metabolism, too. How do you tell the difference between the two? Well, we have compiled a list of the best and worst foods for increasing your metabolism.
5 Best Foods for Boosting Metabolism
The most effective foods for increasing metabolism are those that are high in protein. In comparison to carbohydrates and fats, protein requires more energy to break down, which keeps you full for a longer time. A piece of Healthcanal has also shared the various benefits of a protein-rich diet. Eggs are packed with protein, with one large egg containing 6 grams of protein. They are a healthy choice of breakfast because they are low in calories and have numerous benefits. So, include at least one egg in your diet each day.
Along with being protein-rich, lentils also contain carbohydrates and fibre. They help in digestion while keeping you satiated throughout the day. Lentils have an appetite-lowering effect that makes you avoid unnecessary calories and cravings. As they require more energy to digest than other food groups, lentils are excellent for your metabolism.
Green Tea has zero calories, making it the ideal weight-loss drink. It has antioxidant properties with several health benefits, however, research has found that green tea has a positive impact on your metabolism, as well. It increases your metabolism by using the stored fat in your body as energy, which leads you to burn more fat and calories.
Glucoraphanin is a phytochemical present in broccoli, experts say that it helps to retune your metabolism. Not all broccolis are high in glucoraphanin, a certain type known as Beneforte, which contains high amounts of glucoraphanin. Hence, consuming broccoli with other veggies can rev up your metabolism.
Several types of research have shown the benefits of avocados for metabolic health. Avocados help in the prevention of metabolic syndrome, a condition that is becoming common in the United States. It contains monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fats that speed up metabolism and lower cholesterol levels. It is recommended to add at least half an avocado to your diet.
5 Worst Foods for Boosting Metabolism
White bread, white pasta, and rice are generally eaten all around the world. Unfortunately, they are unhealthy for your metabolism, as well as weight loss. According to a study published by the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, whole grains increase your metabolism and promote calorie loss. Refined grains break down more quickly than whole grains, making you feel hungrier in a short period of time. They are higher in calories and make your blood sugar levels rise.
Some days, everybody has sugar cravings and end up eating a bunch of sugary foods. However, sugar is extremely damaging to your metabolism. It is simply high in calories with no nutritional value. Sugar, in addition to making you sleepy and sluggish, can also cause diabetes and heart problems. So, the next time you crave sugary foods, eat some fruits instead.
It is high in calories and slows down your metabolic rate. The human body can’t store alcohol, so the liver prioritizes breaking it down before other nutrients and then stores it. This results in liver diseases and weight gain. On the other hand, we tend to make the worst food choices after drinking alcohol. It also prevents you from exercising, as you feel fatigued and sleepy. It takes a few weeks for your body to return to its normal functions, and until then alcohol successfully damages your metabolism.
Soda is infamous for a variety of reasons, mainly the many health problems that it causes in our bodies. It leads to obesity and slows down metabolism, as well. Sodas contain high amounts of fructose, a sugar that needs to be converted into glucose. It gets converted into fat inside the liver. As a result of this process, the body develops a variety of liver diseases. Sodas are full of calories with no health advantages, therefore, it is best to avoid them.
There is no denying that fried foods taste heavenly, but the joy of our taste buds comes at the cost of our metabolism. Fried foods contain plenty of trans fats, which are more harmful than monounsaturated fats. They can lead to several diseases such as obesity, diabetes, and a variety of problems. Fried foods are high in calories and require less energy to digest, causing your metabolism to slow down. They can cause people to develop addictive behaviors, which can cause bigger damage to their health.
Metabolism plays a vital role in our bodies. No matter how much they eat, some people don’t gain weight because they have a faster metabolism than others. Metabolism largely depends on genes, but eating foods that can boost your metabolic rate is beneficial for your overall health. Mitchelle Morgan, a Health Writer determined that a speedy metabolism can remove toxins from the body more quickly than a slower metabolism. Avoiding foods that can damage your metabolism and result in several diseases should be your priority. They have little to no advantages for your health, instead, they contribute to weight gain and difficulty maintaining a healthy weight. It is recommended to eat a diet that includes the best foods for boosting your metabolism and eliminates the worst ones. The above-mentioned foods may be the answer to your metabolism and weight loss related issues.

Violent Mexican group 'sold fake ID cards to illegal immigrants and beat up its own members'
A violent Mexican-based organisation sold fake documents to illegal immigrants and beat up its own members for breaking group rules, prosecutors claim.
More than 20 people from the fraud ring kidnapped, beat and 'at least once' murdered competitors, while also using violence to discipline its own members, they said.
Israel Cruz Millan - also known as ‘El Muerto’ - of North Carolina, 28, allegedly headed the group’s American operations producing high-quality false ID cards for immigrants.
Charges announced: Prosecutors said 22 people from a Mexico-based fraud ring producing fake ID documents kidnapped, beat and murdered competitors
Fake ‘resident alien’ and 'social security' cards sold from $150 to $200 and the group had operations in 19 cities across 11 states, the indictment said.
The group also allegedly sold driver's licences, work documents and other bogus documents, and sent $1million to Mexico between January 2008 and November 2010.
But members who broke group rules were disciplined by having their eyebrows shaved, wearing weights or receiving beatings and other violence, the indictment said.
They also allegedly tried to put competitors out of business by pretending to be customers and then attacking them when documents were delivered.
‘The indictment portrays a deadly criminal organization that uses brutal violence to eliminate rivals, protect its turf and enforce discipline against its own members,’ Neil MacBride, prosecuting, said.
Millan allegedly placed a manager in each city and had ‘runners’ who handed out business cards and sold the fake services to customers, the indictment said.
Map: The group 'sold fake ID cards for between $150 and $200, sent more than $1million to Mexico over three years and had operations in 19 cities in 11 states'
The indictment had 12 counts, including racketeering, money laundering and kidnapping. A federal grand jury indicted the group in Richmond, Virginia, today.
FAKE OFFERING: What the group is alleged to have sold
Fake documents retailing for between $150 and $200
They made driver's licences, work documents, 'resident alien' and social security cards
The group sold the documents in 19 cities across 11 states
The 22 indicted were among 28 people arrested last November on charges of conspiracy to produce and transfer false identification documents and conspiracy to commit money laundering.
Five of these individuals have since pleaded guilty to the false ID charge, reported CNN and WECT 6 News.
‘Document fraud doesn't just involve paperwork,' John Morton, director of the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agency, said.
‘The business of document fraud, which can be ugly and involve violence and the use of deadly weapons, warrants the attention of Homeland Security Investigations.’
Cells were operating in Virginia, Connecticut, Massachusetts, Rhode Island, Missouri, Arkansas, Ohio, North Carolina, Indiana, Ohio and Tennessee, the government said.
A statement from ICE said: ‘Attacks allegedly included binding the victims' hands, feet and mouth -
repeatedly beating them - and threatening them with death if they
continued to sell false identification documents in the area.
‘The victims were allegedly left bound at the scene of the attack, and the indictment states that at least one victim died from the beatings.’

We know the current Covid-19 pandemic is having a transformative effect on the retail industry, and while the technological innovation and external financial pressures continue apace, the number of jobs in retail is falling. Retail jobs of the future will surely become more skilled and more productive and the retailers’ ability to upskill and retrain is critical to the future success of the industry.
Retail is a diverse industry and leading companies are already doing their part to boost social mobility. As we hosted the first in our series of roundtables focusing on Diversity & Inclusion with Social Mobility, we learnt that optimising HR policies and processes to increase the socio-economic diversity and inclusion of your workforce will be for the better of the industry. Those who have the longest journey often have the most to offer. Employees from lower socio-economic background on average outperform their more advantaged peers and individuals who start as an apprentice are more likely to stay long-term thus reducing recruitment costs.
So how can we ensure we continue to exploit opportunities?
Apprenticeships at all levels are important to the retail industry. As an industry that provides a significant number of jobs to individuals who experience high levels of economic exclusion, apprenticeships at Level 2 are particularly important. As the industry continues to transform and the skills requirement of retail jobs changes, apprenticeships provide a real opportunity to support existing employees to move into new roles within a retail organisation.
Investment in the skills of the workforce is a long-term commitment. Retailers are increasingly concerned about the future funding for the apprenticeship beyond 2020. This has been exacerbated by the Government’s admission that the system is under budgetary pressures. Future funding must be secured for all age apprenticeships across all levels to support in work progression, social mobility and to enable industries such as retail to transition to a higher skilled, more productive industry.
The recently launched National Skills Fund is an opportunity to think strategically about the future of skills funding. The retail industry recognises the importance of investment in skills and understands the need to continue contributing to a training levy. But the Government must look beyond apprenticeships to support industry to meet its skills needs.


Sources close to both the Shinawatras and the military have told the Nikkei Asian Review that she is now outside the country, possibly in Singapore.
When asked whether Yingluck was still in Thailand the lawyer replied: "I don't know".
Protests and court cases have hacked at their governments and finances, while another coup toppled Ms Yingluck in 2014.
The bungled scheme became a lightning rod for anger among protesters and also saw her fall under the glare of anti-graft officials, who are still mulling whether to convict her for negligence - a charge which carries up to 10 years in prison and a life ban from politics.
Yingluck's failure to appear in court prompted the Supreme Court to hand out the arrest warrant for the former premier now faced with duty-negligence charges pertaining to the rice subsidy program implemented nationwide years ago.
The 50-year-old Shinawatra failed to appear for the verdict in a trial in which she was being accused of gross negligence and mismanagement for a 2011 rice subsidy scheme.
She is the younger sister of exiled business tycoon Thaksin Shinawatra, a highly divisive figure who was Thailand's prime minister from 2001 to 2006 when he was ousted by a military coup.
The telecoms tycoon, who once owned Manchester City football club, has not returned since and his Thai passport has been revoked.
Mr Shinawatra is believed to use a Montenegrin passport, after his Thai document was revoked, to travel between homes in Dubai, London, Hong Kong and Singapore.
This trial was indeed a strong symbolic dimension, in this country is deeply divided between pro-and anti-Shinawatra, the red Shirts against yellow Shirts, to resume the color codes used by the two camps.
Mr Thaksin remains a galvanising force for his party and a canny political operator.
"It does not help with Thailand's division and polarization", he said.
Jet Tonavanic, an associate professor at Kasetsart University, thinks Pheu Thai might now reduce its allegiance to the Shinawatra clan and build a party "that can truly earn the people's support through its fight for democracy".
And soon after taking office, she enacted a controversial rice subsidy policy: The government would buy rice from farmers, paying above market rate to boost rural incomes. It has earned $40 million from the sales but calculates the government lost billions because it couldn't export at a price commensurate with what it had paid farmers.
"I am a victim of a subtle political game", she told Thailand's Supreme Court on August 1.
Yingluck has been barred from leaving the country without court approval since 2015, when her trial started. Instead, current Prime Minister Prayut Chan-o-cha said he has "assigned officials to check the normal entry and exit routes and find out where she is".
Her lawyer Norawit Larlaeng told the court that she has vertigo and couldn't attend the hearing. The new king, Maha Vajiralongkorn, signed a new constitution in April - the nation's 20th constitution in 85 years - that entrenched the authority of the ruling generals and monarchy.

It can be used for many methods from making better decisions about inventory management to optimizing supply chain facilities, reducing outages, and delivering faster, more convenient service. Info is also being utilized to create vibrant pricing tactics that are even more responsive to market demand and changing consumer preferences.


The World Association of Nuclear Operators (WANO) will undertake peer reviews of the Belarusian nuclear power plant in 2018, says Belarusian Deputy Energy Minister Mikhail Mikhadyuk.
Apart from that, Belarus will host a number of IAEA missions as well as online educational seminars before the plant’s launching. A comprehensive evaluation of the Belarusian NPP’s readiness to operate is scheduled for 2018.
Safety is our key priority during the construction and operation of the nuclear power plant. Currently we are preparing a national report on results of the stress tests. We have also agreed to have the results independently evaluated by the European Commission.
He also points out that Belarus openly shares information about the NPP’s building progress – with international nuclear energy agencies, neighboring countries, and others concerned.
The Belarusian NPP joined WANO in 2016. The organization aims to improve the safety of all the nuclear power plants in the world. It unites all the operators of nuclear power plants (about 450 power-generating units).
The Belarusian nuclear power plant is being built 18km away from Astravets in Grodno region. The commissioning of the first power-generating unit is scheduled for 2019, of the second one – in 2020.

To complement the work of clinical trials, Flatiron Health and the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) have signed a research collaboration agreement to determine how real-world treatment patterns derived from de-identified patient data captured outside of clinical trials can provide new insights into the safety and effectiveness of emerging anti-cancer therapies such as immunotherapeutic agents.
Flatiron Health and the FDA will use a project to investigate the use of immunotherapies in patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (aNSCLC) to explore analytic approaches, clinically relevant endpoints and safety assessment methods using real-world evidence.
“With only 4 percent of the adult U.S. cancer population enrolled in clinical trials, we as providers are currently limited to making clinical decisions based upon study results that represent only a small number of patients. This makes it nearly impossible to estimate whether a treatment will work, anticipate all of the potential side effects of therapies or even decide which treatment should precede another,” said Amy Abernethy, chief medical officer and senior vice president, oncology, Flatiron Health, in a prepared statement. “Collaborative projects such as this one with the FDA allow us to access real-world evidence for more accurate and actionable insights into patient care and expected outcomes outside of clinical trials, supporting the delivery of high-quality patient care.”
Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer deaths in the United States, with more than 220,000 new cases and approximately 160,000 deaths in 2015. In recent years, immunotherapy — a novel class of therapies that leverage the body’s own immune system to help fight cancer — has emerged as a promising approach in the treatment of aNSCLC. Under the collaboration, Flatiron Health and the Center for Drug Evaluation and Research (CDER) within the FDA will systematically explore the characteristics and treatment patterns of patients with aNSCLC who are receiving immunotherapy to better understand real-world treatment patterns and formulate further regulatory science hypotheses.
Founded in 2012 by two former Google employees, New York-based Flatiron Health was the focus of a recent Healthcare Informatics Up and Comer feature article. The company has grown to approximately 280 employees and works with 200 cancer centers. Backed by Google Ventures, First Round Capital, Roche and others, the company’s OncologyCloud platform includes an EHR for oncology, analytics, patient portal and integrated billing management.

NEW DELHI — India has awarded a $3.12 billion contract for local production of 464 T-90S main battle tanks after paying a technology transfer fee to Russia.
The contract was signed with little fanfare earlier this month. The deal stipulates that Russian original equipment manufacturer UralVagonZavod and arms export agency Rosoboronexport will be paid $1.2 billion for technology transfer, while India’s state-owned Ordnance Factory Board will be paid $1.92 billion for local production of 464 T-90S tanks, according to an Indian Ministry of Defence official.
India will pay the Russian defense companies in roubles, Russia’s currency.
The MoD official described the price tag of the technology transfer as too high, noting that domestic production of the tanks will increase to 80 percent from the current level of 40 percent.
A senior OFB executive said complete localization of T-90S tanks in India is impossible, as a large number of parts must continue to be imported. The parts that will be locally produced include panoramic night sights, thermal imaging fire-control systems and explosive reactive armor, he added. However, the engines and transmission system that makes up 45 percent of the cost of a T-90S tank will come from Russia.
Another MoD official said Russian defense companies will have to undertake full production and localization guarantees. In addition, both OFB and the two Russian firms will be penalized by the MoD should the project hit production delays or cost overruns.
OFB and UralVagonZavod are expected to manufacture 120 T-90S tanks per year and complete the project within four years.
Rosoboronexport executives in India declined to comment on the deal.
The T-90S tanks are to be manufactured at OFB’s Heavy Factory in Avadi, southern India, but more than a dozen ordnance factories will carry out assembly of subsystems imported from multiple Russian defense companies.
A senior Indian Army official said greater localization of the tank does not significantly help because life cycle support is not included. Because of this, the official argued, the service ends up paying three times more than the original cost of the tank.
The Army currently operates 1,100 T-90S tanks, of which 300 were directly procured from Russia.

The industry rumor is that, much like he did three years ago with his five-week Wyoming rollout, Kanye is trying to crowd (and thus, cloud) the release of Drake’s sixth album proper Certified Lover Boy, which he’s promised will come “by the end of summer.” (Evidence against this theory: insiders say Kanye and Drake have actually squashed their years-long cold war. Evidence supporting it: their entourages were openly chirping at each other on Instagram as recently as last week.)
The likelihood is that, if Kanye is angling for a release date showdown with Drake and gets it, he will lose—this is not 2007 and, Drake is a sales juggernaut unlike anything hip-hop has seen before. If Kanye wants to play a game he can not only win, but shatter records in, he should just keep hosting listening parties. Billboard reports that the most recent event at Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta on August 5th netted him $7 million in merch sales, which might beat Taylor Swift’s per-show record for the Reputation tour in 2018, without the costs of actually doing a live show. (Kanye also set the livestream record for Apple Music, with 5.4 million viewers.) Fashion and sneakers are where he still does Graduation numbers, and if there’s one area he’s always mastered, it’s presentation. With more time to plan, the second Donda event was a much more impressive affair, with Kanye engaging in some kind of performance art on a stage setup that resembled the locker room he’d been tweaking the album in, with goth-looking performers dancing around to the changing moods of the music and their masked conductor. It all concluded with Kanye literally ascending to the heavens, soundtracked by the album’s new closing song, “No Child Left Behind,” in a visual that harkened back to his classic Yeezus poster.
Drake, no shots, can’t do that. Really, no other rapper can. Kanye may not do a million album sales (or the streaming equivalent) anymore but merch and presentation are fields he can’t be beat on. Word is MBS is finally kicking him out and he’s on the hunt for another stadium to haunt. What’s the over/under on a third listening event being scheduled for August 21?

Progesterone is a pregnancy hormone that naturally exists in a women’s body. As women enter their transitional years, progesterone and estrogen become unbalanced as progesterone production declines. Women may describe feelings of anxiety, depression, irritability, difficulty sleeping, headaches and mood swings. Women can greatly benefit from natural, bio-identical progesterone as it balances many other hormones and nutrients in the body.
Synthetic progestin (medroxyprogesterone or MPA) is NOT the same as bio-identical progesterone. When choosing a progesterone replacement, it is critical women use bio-identical, micronized progesterone and not the synthetic form MPA. Research has shown progesterone is neuro-protective against cerebral damage and directly affects the neurotransmitters that regulate mood, appetite and sleep. These beneficial effects were blocked by MPA. As women age, the risk of osteoporosis and breast cancer increases. Numerous studies indicate that progesterone stimulates new bone growth and reduces breast cancer cell proliferation. Furthermore, progesterone provides significant protection against cardiovascular disease by raising good HDL cholesterol, and lowering high blood pressure.
Women wanting to prevent disease and improve their health should supplement with natural bio-identical progesterone and use it for life.

Broncs push past Huskies, 32-6
BLOOMSBURG, PA – J.R. Wert (Christianburg, VA/Christianburg), Evan Fidelibus (Easton, PA/Easton Area), B.J. Clagon (Toms River, NJ/Toms River South), Chad Walsh (Cherry Hill, NJ/Camden Catholic), Dean Sherry (Brick, NJ/Brick Township), Michale Fagg-Daves (Somerset, NJ/Franklin) and Mauro Correnti (Delran, NJ/Holy Cross [Lock Haven]) each picked up victories as the Rider University wrestling team cruised to a 32-6 Eastern Wrestling League win at Bloomsburg on Friday evening. After the teams split the first four matches, Rider (8-1, 4-1 EWL) took the final six bouts from the Huskies (4-13, 0-4 EWL).
Wert started the match with a 5-3 decision over Willy Girard at 125 to stake Rider to a 3-0 advantage. Matt Noble defeated Broncs 133 Brenden Calas (Clark, NJ/Seton Hall Prep [N.C. State]) by a 4-1 margin to even the match at 3-3.
Fidelibus earned a 19-9 major decision at 141 over Grant Bond to give the Broncs a 7-3 lead. At 149, Bloomsburg’s Nate Newbury pulled out a 3-2 decision over Gino Fluri (Blairstown, NJ/North Warren Regional) to cut the Broncs’ lead to 7-6.
But Rider would win the final six matches to cruise to a 32-6 victory. Clagon scored a major decision over Kevin Laubach at 157, 12-4, before Walsh pinned Reid Stanley in 5:54 at 165. The pin was Walsh’s 11th of the year, the second-most in the nation.
Sherry then defeated Trevor Allard, 9-6, at 174 and Fagg-Daves took a 7-5 decision over Kyle Murphy at 184. A forfeit at 197 gave the Broncs six more points and a 29-6 advantage. Correnti’s 2-0 decision over Bruce Graebar at 285 closed out the 32-6 Rider victory.

The longest grain train in the history of the ARTC network has been loaded at Cargill's GrainFlow site at Crystal Brook, South Australia. Record Train GrainFlow
Loaded with 6228 tonnes of wheat from the southern Flinders Ranges area, the train consists of 101 wagons and measures 1.8km in length.
It was loaded for Arrow Commodities on a Southern Short-Haul Rail (SSR) train and is destined for Newcastle and Moree, representing a shift in feed stocks from southern Australia to drought affected regions further north.
GrainFlow site manager, Dave Arbon, said the entire train could not be loaded at the same time due to the length.
“It has been a massive couple of days, and the team has pulled out all stops to help our customers with this one,” Dave said.
“On the first day, using one rail bin, we loaded 70 wagons in 6 hours at a loading rate of 450 tonnes per hour,” he said. “Our facilities are good here, so it helped us meet our customer’s deadline."
“We are all locals here at Crystal Brook Grainflow and we take a lot of pride in being part of this record,” he said.
“It’s our local farmers wheat that was delivered to our site that is going into those wagons. It is great to see it headed off to market.”
It is believed the previous record on the ARTC network was 73 wagons in 2015 in Northern NSW, measuring 1.3 kilometres.

The University Of Wyoming Has A New Slogan And People Are Upset
There is quite a bit of controversy stirring in Laramie over the weekend. A new slogan was proposed for the school and people are not happy about it.
As reported by the Associated Press, there is a marketing plan in place for the university and people are saying the slogan is racist, sexist and counterproductive to what the university is actually looking for when it comes to recruiting.
The slogan is question, according to the Laramie Boomerang is, "The world needs more cowboys."
The Director of Communications for the university spoke out and defended the slogan. She said one of the campaign's goals was to reconstruct and redefine the word "cowboy." The goal is to make the word represent everyone at the University of Wyoming, from the staff, students, faculty and whom ever else is an employee there.
A letter was written to the universities president, Laurie Nichols, in response to the new campaign being proposed. The letter came from the University of Wyoming's Committee on Women and People of Color, also the letter went to the Director of Communications, Chad Baldwin. The letter asked them to "shelve that slogan and find another one that represents the diversity of people and cultures that we have, and want to have, as UW."
There is a marketing firm out of Boulder, Colorado named Victors and Spoils who got paid around $500,000 to develop the controversial slogan for the University of Wyoming.

For most people, the stress isn’t going away.
Your self talk can make all the difference in how much stress you feel and how it affects you, both now and in the future.
What’s more important is how we choose to respond and what we tell ourselves about what happened.
1. I am putting the past behind me.
No matter what happened that led you to feel as you do today, you can put it behind you and start over. There are some things that you can’t do over, and some that just won’t turn out the way you wanted, no matter what. You can always learn from the past and move forward.
2. I am focusing on the one next positive step.
All it takes is one positive step forward, no matter how small. It might be to make one small shift in what you are eating or what you are thinking. It might be to let go of some notion that you have been attached to. Take that step today and don’t look back.
3. I am doing the best I can.
Most people don’t give themselves enough credit that they really are doing the best they can. We judge ourselves more harshly than anyone else, and we are the hardest to please. When you know better, you do better.
Remember that judgment sucks, no matter what side of it you are on.
4. It’s NOT that hard.
This is my new mantra when I hear myself saying “it’s too hard…” or “I can’t …” If you counteract these thoughts quickly, then it shifts your thinking and opens new possibilities. Try it!
5: “I will never give up!”
Don’t ever give up, no matter how frustrated or discouraged you may feel. Give yourself the gift of support if you need it (we all do.) It’s never too late to make a fresh start, right from where you are … with what you have to work with.

Taylor Swift takes break from social media
Pop star Taylor Swift is taking a long hiatus from the cyber world as she wants to clear her mind from the hatred and negativity that she gets online.
The 'Shake It Off' hitmaker's been absent from Twitter and Instagram, and she's loving it, reported Hollywood Life.
"Taylor is loving her break from social media. She enjoys being connected with her fans but she also struggles with the negativity and bullies that she deals with whenever she reads Instagram comments," a source says.
"She will be back to posting more regularly soon. But for now she is really appreciating detoxing and being unplugged from some of the negative energy online."

Spirits and Thought Forms:
Tales from Prosperity Glades
by Jeffrey Kosh
Ebook Short Description: Spirits, by their nature, are formless beings; in a way they are just memes. Each spirit represents something about human nature and wishes. Spirits are wishes made into flesh – or almost flesh.
A thought form can range in complexity from a simple emotional impression to a fully sentient and aware being, and in power from a minor servitor entity to a god.
And they wear masks.
In Prosperity Glades all spirits wear a mask: the Veiled Queen, Nemesis, the Smiling Monster, the Dying Road, and the Cloaked Man.
These tales are all about masks, spirits, and thought forms. All take place in Prosperity Glades, because there’s a weak spot between our world and the spiritual one, right in the middle of Grassy Swamp.
And spirits – and thought forms – do thrive there.
Jeffrey Kosh invites you to return once again to that weird town in the heart of Florida’s Everglades; where primal forces have a hold on human desires.
Yet beware, once there … avoid making wishes.
They can come true and take form.
Spirit and Thought forms is ADULTS ONLY
A FAIR WARNING: The tale ‘She Was Waiting’ is a small Erotica-Horror fiction, with strong language and sex scenes.
Where to find.
You can find the e-book on Amazon.com.

The process induced variations such as residual stresses and distortions are a critical issue in pultrusion, since they affect the structural behavior as well as the mechanical properties and geometrical precision of the final product. In order to capture and investigate these variations, a mechanical analysis should be performed. In the present work, the two dimensional (2D) quasi-static plane strain mechanical model for the pultrusion of a thick square profile developed by the authors is further improved using generalized plane strain elements. In addition to that, a more advanced 3D thermo-chemical-mechanical analysis is carried out using 3D quadratic elements which is a novel application for the numerical modelling of the pultrusion process. It is found that the 2D mechanical models give relatively reasonable and accurate stress and displacement evolutions in the transverse direction as compared to the 3D model. Moreover, the generalized plane strain model predicts the longitudinal process induced stresses more similar to the ones calculated in the 3D model as compared with the plane strain model.

OUTSIDE THE LINES – Building Facades Redefine Urban Living in NYC
Façade Tectonics started as a series of invited roundtable discussions at the University of Southern California School of Architecture in 2007; a strategic response to the escalating importance and complexity of building facade technology. The roundtables grew into a series of conference events that drew hundreds of participants with a broad range of interests in the building skin. The accelerating change of facade technology and the growing awareness of the facade as not only integral to, but the very fulcrum of holistic building design, has propelled Facade Tectonics to the forefront of the emerging dialogue of building skin. The facade system uniquely combines considerations of performance and appearance; it is, quite simply, the most interesting and vital aspect of architecture and urban habitat today.
Our Director of Business Development, Bill Pottle, will be in attendance to answer all your questions.
