<description><![CDATA[جستجوگر ها(searchers)  ابزارهایی هستند که شما را یاری می کنن]]></description>
<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>جستجوگر ها(searchers)  ابزارهایی هستند که شما را یاری می کنند تا شما با قرار دادن کلمه ی کلیدی مورد نظر خود مطالب ، عکس و یا امکاناتی در میلیون ها سایت اینترنت ،در کمترین زمان ممکن بیابید.</p>
<p>در این جا به معرفی چند جستجوگر ایرانی و خارجی معروف به همراه عکس هایی از آنها (screen shot) ، می پردازم.</p>
<h2><a title="کویل" href="http://cuil.com" target="_blank">1)cuil</a></h2>
<p>این سرچر یکی از سرچر های جدید و بسیار خوبی است که  121,617,893,000صفحه ی اینترنتی را پوشش می دهد. یکی از اشکالات این جستجوگر این است که نوع جستجوی آن قدیمی می باشد . یعنی فقط عناوین را جستجو می کند.</p>
<p>این جستجوگر دارای فضای زیبایی می باشد. یکی از معایب آن این است که قابلیت جستجوی اختصاصی عکس را دارای نمی باشد.</p>
<p>یکی از امکانات شاخص این جستجوگر این است که شما می توانید با وارد کردن قسمتی از اسم به صورت خودکار بقیه قسمت های احتمالی آن را ببینید.</p>
<p>این عکس عکسی از صفحات اول آن می باشد .</p>
[caption id="attachment_125" align="alignnone" width="300" caption="cuil"]<a href="http://yekparsi.files.wordpress.com/2008/07/cuil-11.jpg"><img class="size-medium wp-image-125" src="http://yekparsi.wordpress.com/files/2008/07/cuil-11.jpg?w=300" alt="cuil" width="300" height="179" /></a>[/caption]
<h2><a title="yahoo!" href="http://search.yahoo.com" target="_blank"> 2)yahoo ! search </a></h2>
<p>این یک از قدیمی ترین جستجوگرهای اینترنت می هست که همانند کویل دارای روش جستجوی قدیمی می باشد.</p>
<p>در این جا عکسی از صفحه ی اولش رو مشاهده می کنید :</p>
[caption id="attachment_126" align="alignnone" width="300" caption="yahoo!"]<a href="http://yekparsi.files.wordpress.com/2008/07/yahoo-1.jpg"><img class="size-medium wp-image-126" src="http://yekparsi.wordpress.com/files/2008/07/yahoo-1.jpg?w=300" alt="yahoo!" width="300" height="179" /></a>[/caption]
<h2><a title="Live" href="http://live.com" target="_blank">3) Live</a></h2>
<p>جستجوگر جدید مایکروسافت ، جایگزین حرفه ای msn . این مرورگر که به تازگی جای خودش رو بین همه داره باز می کنه جایگزین خیلی مناسبی برای msn هست. متاسفانه این جستجوگر هم مانند دو جستجوگر قبلی فقط عناوین را جستجو می کند.</p>
<p>عکس از صفحه ی اول جستجوگر Live :</p>
[caption id="attachment_127" align="alignnone" width="300" caption="Live"]<a href="http://yekparsi.files.wordpress.com/2008/07/live-1.jpg"><img class="size-medium wp-image-127" src="http://yekparsi.wordpress.com/files/2008/07/live-1.jpg?w=300" alt="Live" width="300" height="172" /></a>[/caption]
<h2><a title="AOL" href="http://search.aol.com" target="_blank"> 4)AOL</a></h2>
<p>این مرورگر که برپاییه ی هسته ی گوگل هست ، دارای فضای ساده و مناسبی مباشد.</p>

<h2><a title="Google" href="http://google.com" target="_blank"> 5)Google</a></h2>
<p>این جستجوگر معروفترین ، بهترین و پرکار آمدترین جستجوگر در نوع خود می باشد. این مرورگر از روش جدید جستجوی متن استفاده می کند. این جستجوگر 45,000,000,000 صفحه ی اینترنتی را تحت پوشش خود دارد.</p>
<p>این تنها مرورگر خارجی می باشد که دارای زبان فارسی است.</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong><u>Today in the market, Tuesday May 20, 2008:</u></strong> Stocks fell as crude oil prices continued to climb.&#160; There were concerns that the higher energy prices were slamming the US consumer.&#160; The S&#38;P &#38; Nasdaq were both down about 1%.&#160;
<p><strong><u>RSI’s Themes:</u></strong>&#160; The ETF/CEF picks for today are T-bonds and the Japanese Yen trust.&#160; Interesting picks.&#160; Only three stock picks with one new one which is an energy trust paying a huge yield.&#160; Worth a look.</p>
<p><br><strong><u>ETF/CEF Low Volatility:</u> </strong></p>
<ul>
<li><strong>IEF - 7-10 Year Treasury Bond Fund (Leh) iShares</strong>
<li><strong>SHY - 1-3 Year Treasury Bond Fund (Leh) iShares</strong></li>
</ul>
<p><strong><u>ETF/CEF Medium Volatility:</u> </strong></p>
<ul>
<li><strong>FXY - CurrencyShares Japanese Yen Trust</strong></li>
</ul>
<p><a href="http://rsietf.files.wordpress.com/2008/05/image33.png"><img style="border-width:0;" height="319" alt="image" src="http://rsietf.files.wordpress.com/2008/05/image-thumb33.png" width="449" border="0"></a> <br><br><strong><u>Stocks Medium Volatility:</u> </strong></p>
<ul>
<li><strong>PX - Praxair, Inc.</strong></li>
</ul>
<p><strong><u>Stocks High Volatility:</u> </strong></p>
<ul>
<li><strong>AKS - AKSteel Holding Corp.</strong>
<li><strong>TELOZ - Tel Offshore Trust</strong></li>
</ul>
<p><a href="http://rsietf.files.wordpress.com/2008/05/image34.png"><img style="border-width:0;" height="319" alt="image" src="http://rsietf.files.wordpress.com/2008/05/image-thumb34.png" width="449" border="0"></a> </p>
<p><u><strong>Stock Picks New to RSI:&#160; </strong></u>
<ul>
<li><strong>TEL Offshore Trust</strong> owns interest in the TEL Offshore Trust Partnership (Partnership). The Partnership owns a royalty interest in oil and gas properties located offshore Louisiana. TEL Offshore Trust was founded in 1983 and is based in Austin, Texas. It currently pays a yield of 12.80%.</li>
</ul>
<p><strong><u>Catch a Falling Knife:</u></strong>
<ul>
<li><strong>none</strong></li>
</ul>
<p><strong>The Way Ahead Portfolio</strong> was up 0.68% today despite a down market.&#160; It is now ahead 4.01% since its inception on October 1st of last year.&#160; Four of its ten holdings have gains of over 20% and all holdings have positive gains.&#160; Yes, many of the original positions were stopped out for 8% plus losses, but the portfolio has flourished in this recent rally.</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong><u>Today in the market, Friday May 16, 2008:</u></strong>&#160;&#160; After spending all day in the red, the stock market pulled up to end almost unchanged. The S&#38;P was slightly up and the Nasdaq was slightly down.&#160; Thus the market ended a pretty good week mixed as it continues to move steadily up and off the bottom. Crude oil prices continue to worry the market.</p>
<p><strong><u>RSI’s Themes:</u></strong>&#160; RSI picked many gold oriented ETF/CEF and stocks.&#160; In addition there are several steel companies in the mix too.&#160; And RSI still likes energy stocks too.&#160; RSI still is not showing any "Catching a Falling Knife" candidates.&#160; Does this mean that the bear is gone?</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;">Today in the market, Thursday May 8, 2008:</span></strong> Stocks were up modestly, like 0.5%, reflecting good retail news and worries of higher crude oil prices. Remember the saying about climbing a "wall of worry"?  This may be all part of the process of moving higher. </p>
<p><strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;">RSI’s Themes:</span></strong> As this market warms up there are more ETF/CEF picks from RSI.  The central theme is energy and materials.   Not surprising considering the current economic environment.  And RSI's stock picks appear to agree with that assessment and add two steel stocks to the mix.</p>
<p><strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;">ETF/CEF Low Volatility:</span> </strong></p>
<ul>
<li><strong>ACG - AllianceBernstein Income Fund, Inc. *</strong></li>
<li><strong>VAW - Vanguard Materials VIPERs</strong></li>

<p>Out of all these stock picks, RSI has a new stock to its quiver:</p>
<p><strong>Valence Technology, Inc</strong>., together with its subsidiaries, engages in the commercialization of phosphate-based lithium-ion rechargeable battery technology, known as Saphion.</p>
<p>Can you believe Mechel Steel?  Up 350% for the past 52 weeks.  And Valence Tech isn't chopped liver either.  What RSI is telling us is that there are more gains in the future.</p>
<p>* <span style="text-decoration:underline;"><strong>Special note on this pick</strong></span>  - This fund has a great chart and I believe it could be going higher.  On the other hand it has a 3.35% expense ratio, too rich for my blood.  I'm conflicted on this one.</p>
<p>** <strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;">Special note on this pick</span></strong> - Sometimes I have to manually judge if the RSI results conform with all the facets of the methodology.  This one failed to convince me that it met the Hurst Channel criteria, but I found it to be interesting.  But I couldn't keep this one to myself.  I don't know if it has merit, or if it is an anomaly.   Ultra short the financials is so counterintuitive, I had to share this one with my loyal followers.  But don't buy it on this basis....unless you <span style="text-decoration:underline;">like to speculate</span>.</p>
<p>*** <span style="text-decoration:underline;"><strong>Special note on this pick</strong></span>  - This stock was up huge today, don't chase it.</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong><u>Today in the market, Friday April 25, 2008:</u></strong> The market spent most of the day down, but bargain hunters came in and drove it up to close mixed.&#160; The S&#38;P was up an the Nasdaq was down.&#160; An okay ending to a roller coaster week.&#160; Inflation concerns are playing on the market as consumers are squeezed.&#160; Consumer sentiment is at a 27 year low, but company earnings announcements have been quite robust.&#160; The Yin and Yang pulling the market in opposite directions.
<p><u><strong>RSI’s Themes:</strong></u>&#160; Finally RSI (alive and well, thank you) has some ETF/CEF picks and they point decidedly in the materials sector.&#160; The stock picks are more in the energy sector and also the agricultural minerals sector, i.e. fertilizers. Food is becoming an important speculation commodity and there is news about food riots, rationing and hoarding.&#160; Steels are also a RSI choice. No CFK picks today.</p>

<p>A word of caution on many of the selected stocks.&#160; Several are quite over extended and may be moving down.&#160; Please use care and of course, do your own homework on all of RSI's selections.&#160; Remember RSI is a mechanical methodology and it is not a substitute for human judgment.</p>

<description><![CDATA[Nachdem ich jetzt eine Anfrage per Mail bekommen habe, wie ich Landesschulsprecher wurde und ich das]]></description>
<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Nachdem ich jetzt eine Anfrage per Mail bekommen habe, wie ich Landesschulsprecher wurde und ich das auch des öftern in der realen Welt gefragt bekomme, habe ich mich entschlossen das kurz hier zu erklären. Am Anfang sei gesagt: Österreich ist das einzige Land, in dem die SchülerInnenvertretung gesetzlich festgeschrieben und geregelt ist.</p>
<p>Alle SchülerInnen ab der 9. Schulstufe (ausser Politechnische Schulen) wählen eine SchülerInnenvertretung (SV) an ihrer Schule. Diese besteht aus dem/der SchulsprecherIn und zwei StellvertreterInnen, dazu noch drei Ersatzmitglieder. Die SV ist grundsätzlich die Verhandlungspartnerin für DirektorInnen, LehrerInnen und für Projekte an der Schule zuständig. weiters  sitzen die ersten drei SVlerInnen mit drei Eltern- und drei LehrervertreterInnen im Schulgemeinschaftsausschuss (SGA). Dort können zum Beispiel die Hausordnung verändert werden, Projektwochen beschlossen werden oder seit dem Ausbau der Schulautonomie auch Lehrplanänderungen durchgeführt werden.</p>
<p>Soweit ist das den meisten SchülerInnen wohl bekannt, dann nämlich beginnt das System zu schwächeln: Ab der LandesschülerInnenvertretung (LSV) aufwärts wird nur mehr von der jeweils unteren Ebene gewählt (wenn überhaupt). Das heißt, die LSV wird nur mehr von den SchulsprecherInnen gewählt. Kandidieren dürfen allerdings die zwei StellvertreterInnen als auch der/die SchulsprecherIn. Die LSV ist in drei Bereiche gegliedert: AHS (Allgemein-Bildende Höhere Schulen; zB Gymnasium, BORG), BMHS (Berufsbildende-Mittlere und Höhere Schulen; zB HAK, HTL, BAKIP, ...) und BS (Berufsschulen; also Lehrlinge).</p>
<p>In jedem Bereich gibt eineN LandesschulsprecherIn und eineN StellvertreterIn, und je nach Größe des Bundesland zwischen zwei und sechs LandesschülervertreterInnen (<a title="LSV OÖ" href="http://lsv-ooe.at" target="_blank">in Oberösterreich</a> sind es sechs). Auch hier gibt es in jedem Bereich Ersatzmitglieder, nämlich acht an der Zahl. Die LSV koordiniert landesweite Projekte, vernetzt die SchülervertrerInnen und vertritt die SchülerInnen vor dem Landesschulrat.</p>
<p>Die <a title="BSV" href="http://bsv.at" target="_blank">BundesschülerInnenvertretung</a> (BSV) wird gar nicht mehr gewählt, ebensowenig wie der Bundesschulsprecher. Diese würfelt sich aus allen LandesschulsprecherInnen aus Österreich (also 3 aus jedem Bundesland macht 27) plus zwei VertreterInnen der Zentrallehranstalten (ZLAs) zusammen. ZLAs sind Schulen, die dem Ministerium direkt unterstellt sind, weil das Konzept von ihnen sich bis auf die Zeit von Maria Theresia zurückführen lässt - so circa 300 Jahre, allerdings keine Seltenheit für Österreichs Bildungssystem. Das macht summa sumarum 29 Personen, die den/die BundesschulsprecherIn nur mehr "entsendet". Dieser wird unterstützt von drei BereichssprecherInnen, auch StellvertrerInnen genannt, jeweils eine Person aus AHS, BMHS und BS-Bereich. Die BSV ist die Verhandlungsebene vor dem Bildungsministerium und koordiniert österreichweite Projekte und Vernetzungsmöglichkeiten.</p>
<p>Alle Ebenen der SchülerInnenvertretung werden für ein Schuljahr gewählt.</p>
<p>Aus dem System wird klar, warum die meisten SchülerInnen (übrigens die größte Berufsgruppe Österreichs!) ihre landes- und bundesweite Vertretung nicht kennen. Man kann sich das so vorstellen, als würden die BürgermeisterInnen unsere (Landes-)Regierungen wählen. Doch wie es aussieht, wird sich in nächster Zeit an diesem System nicht viel ändern.</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><u>Today in the market, April 1, 2008:</u> The markets digested all the economic news and ignoring April Fools Day ended up sharply higher.&#160; All the major averages were over 3 1/2% higher.&#160; A great start to the second quarter of the year.
<p><u>RSI’s Themes:</u>&#160; The ETF/CEF picks favor materials, energy, real assets and foreign.&#160; The stock picks include many foreign (especially China), healthcare, energy and industrials.&#160; I get a strong sense that not only have we put in the bottom, but RSI is showing us the path to future prosperous investments.</p>
<p><strong><u>ETF/CEF Low Volatility:</u> </strong></p>

<p><strong>SPX Corporation</strong> provides flow technology products, test and measurement products, thermal equipment and services, and industrial products and services in the United States and internationally.
<p><strong>Teva Pharmaceutical Industries Limited</strong> develops, manufactures, and markets generic and human pharmaceuticals, as well as active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) in North America, Europe, Latin America, Asia, and Israel.
<p><strong>Votorantim Celulose e Papel S.A.</strong> and its subsidiaries manufacture and market pulp and paper products in North America, Latin America, Europe, and Asia/the Middle East/Oceania/Africa.
<p><strong>Stone Energy Corporation</strong> engages in the acquisition, exploration, development, operation, and production of oil and gas properties located in the Gulf of Mexico, the Rocky Mountain Basins, and the Williston Basin in the United States.
<p>With this renewed enthusiasm in the equities, I will be studying RSI's recommended ETF/CEF picks and will be placing some orders for the hypothetical "Way Ahead" portfolio.&#160; I'll add them to this blog prior to tomorrow's market opening.</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong><u>Today in the market, Monday March 31, 2008:</u></strong>  The end of the month and end of the quarter saw a seesaw market that closed nicely higher.  Market action was probably exacerbated by institutional portfolio window dressing, but we will take the gain. </p>
<p><u><strong>RSI’s Themes:</strong></u>  RSI still likes materials, energy and foreign based businesses.  A similar refrain to what RSI has been whispering over the past few weeks.  Is this the market posture for the future?</p>
<p><strong><u>ETF/CEF Medium Volatility:</u> </strong></p>
<ul>
<li><strong>IEO - iShares Dow Jones U.S. Oil &#38; Gas Exploration &#38; Production</strong></li>
<li><strong>ILF - Latin America 40 Index iShares</strong></li>
</ul>
<p><a href="http://rsietf.files.wordpress.com/2008/03/image15.png"><img border="0" width="449" src="http://rsietf.files.wordpress.com/2008/03/image-thumb15.png" alt="image" height="265" style="border:0;" /></a></p>
<p>RSI has picked these two recently and here you have them again.  The chart shows they have done well and RSI expects continued good performance.</p>
<p><u><strong>Stocks Medium Volatility:</strong></u></p>
<ul>
<li><strong>AKS - AKSteel Holding Corp.</strong></li>
<li><strong>BNT - Bentley Pharmaceuticals, Inc.</strong></li>
<li><strong>BTI - British American Tobacco Industries, p.l.c.</strong></li>
<li><strong>CEDC - Central European Distribution Corp.</strong></li>
<li><strong>ELN - Elan Corp. PLC</strong></li>
<li><strong>FDP - Fresh Del Monte Produce</strong></li>
<li><strong>GEF - Greif Bros. Corp.</strong></li>
<li><strong>HLF - Herbalife Ltd.</strong></li>
<li><strong>NVO - Novo Nordisk A S</strong></li>
<li><strong>STR - Questar Corp.</strong></li>
<li><strong>TECH - Techne Corp.</strong></li>
<li><strong>WW - Watson Wyatt &#38; Co.</strong></li>
<li><strong>XTO - XTO Energy Inc.</strong></li>
</ul>
<p>Of these thirteen, only one of these is newly picked by RSI:</p>
<p><strong>British American Tobacco p.l.c.</strong>, through its subsidiaries, engages in the manufacture, distribution, and sale of cigarettes and tobacco products.  BTI is London based and yields 5.10%, not too shabby. </p>
<p><a href="http://rsietf.files.wordpress.com/2008/03/image16.png"><img border="0" width="449" src="http://rsietf.files.wordpress.com/2008/03/image-thumb16.png" alt="image" height="264" style="border:0;" /></a></p>
<p><a href="http://rsietf.files.wordpress.com/2008/03/image17.png"><img border="0" width="449" src="http://rsietf.files.wordpress.com/2008/03/image-thumb17.png" alt="image" height="265" style="border:0;" /></a></p>
<p>I have to look into my volatility algorithm, it looks like the volatility disparity in the upper stock chart is more than I expect.  I might change my criteria.  Anyway, I have a feeling that we are successfully establishing a base and the bottom may be behind us.  We shall see...</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Letztens hab ich durch einen guten Freund bei der Wiener Schülerunion erfahren, dass die AKS (Aktion kritischer Schüler, SPÖ nahe) in ihrem Newsletter zum Vandalismus an Kirchen aufgerufen hat. Diese Information wurde an österreichische Zeitungen geschickt, die Reaktion war nicht gerade der Situation entsprechend. Nur in Vorarlberg wurde das Thema gebührend behandelt. Gegen die Kirche vorzugehen ist offensichtlich nur mehr ein Kavaliersdelikt.  (Überhaupt frage ich mich was die Leute gegen Nächstenliebe haben....)</p>
<p>Geht es mittlerweile soweit, dass sich offizielle Jugendgruppen einer Partei vereinigen, um Gebäude zu besprayen ? Wohin wird das alles führen, wenn die politischen Gruppen noch radikaler werden  ? Schutzbund und Heimwehr ?  Ich hoffe nicht!</p>
