The US has complained about China s current account (trade) surpluses but, as a percentage of GDP, Germany s surplus is even greater.

China s urbanization has lagged behind its industrialization, which now is around 70 when measured by the percentage of the labor force whose income is derived mainly from non farm activities.

Specifically, not much more than a decade is needed for the share of global GDP generated by developing economies to pass the 50 mark when measured in market prices.

Brazil s stock market, as measured by the inflation corrected Bovespa index, has more than quadrupled in value since President Luis Inácio Lula da Silva s first election victory in October 2002, and is now at almost twice the peak achieved in 2000.

We have some preliminary evidence from bargaining that early warning signs in the brain might be used to predict whether there will be a bad disagreement that costs money, and chimps are better competitors than humans, as judged by game theory.

As this is the beginning of a long awaited process, it is up to the Syrian authorities to be more forthcoming in order to make headway in a process that will be most probably a long one if it is to be judged against the pace of progress to date.

Indeed, if measured by skill levels rather than income, the region s social and economic achievements including the much vaunted expansion of the new middle class are far more tenuous than previously assumed.

Inflationary expectations, as measured by the rates on certain market instruments, actually fell after the hike, indicating increased confidence that the ECB will keep a lid on price pressures.

A4.3.12.1 Provide information to evaluate the environmental impact of the substance or mixture if it were released to the environment. This information can assist in handling spills, and evaluating waste treatment practices and should clearly indicate species, media, units, test duration and test conditions. Where information is not available this should be stated. Provide also a short summary of the data given under A4.3.12.3 to A4.3.12.7.

Information on toxicity can be provided using data from tests performed on aquatic and or terrestrial organisms. This should include relevant available data on both acute and chronic aquatic toxicity for fish, crustaceans, algae and other aquatic plants. In addition, toxicity data on other organisms (including soil micro and macro organisms) such as birds, bees and plants, should be included when available.

A4.3.12.2 Some ecotoxicological properties are substance specific, i.e. bioaccumulation, persistence and degradability. The information should therefore be given, where available and appropriate, for each substance of the mixture.

Bioaccumulation is the potential for the substance or certain constituents of a mixture to accumulate in biota and, possibly, pass through the food chain. Test results relevant to assess the bioaccumulative potential should be given. This should include reference to the octanol water partition coefficient (Kow) and bioconcentration factor (BCF), if available.
