![]() ![]() "Treasury will continue to closely monitor China’s use of exchange rate management, capital flow, and macroprudential measures and their potential impact on the exchange rate," it said in the report.Ī Reuters analysis in June found that Chinese banks had amassed over $1 trillion amid little official PBOC intervention, posing a risk to the government's ability to control the yuan exchange rate. The Treasury report criticized China's lack of transparency in its foreign exchange practices, citing a wide discrepancy between the People's Bank of China's foreign exchange assets and net foreign exchange settlement data, suggesting that state- owned banks were being used to conduct official interventions. "Foreign exchange interventions are necessary for Swiss monetary policy in order to maintain appropriate monetary conditions and thus price stability," the ministry said in a statement. Switzerland's finance ministry repeated its longstanding denial that the country's central bank engages in manipulation of the franc for an economic advantage. Ī Taiwanese central bank official said discussions with Washington would continue but blamed Taiwan's large trade deficit with the United States on strong demand for technology products fueled by the COVID-19 pandemic and production shifts prompted by U.S. The Treasury's latest report did not spark any significant immediate moves in the Taiwan dollar, the Vietnamese dong or the Swiss franc. The deal followed a Reuters report that Vietnam had sought to shift its spot dollar purchases to forward purchase contracts with banks to evade the Treasury criteria. Treasury to refrain from manipulation and make its exchange rate practices more transparent. The United States in July dropped a threat to impose tariffs on Vietnamese goods after the country's central bank agreed with the U.S. "This engagement includes urging the development of a plan with specific actions to address the underlying causes of currency undervaluation and external imbalances," Treasury said of the Taiwan engagement. Treasury said it was "satisfied with progress made by Vietnam to date" and would continue engagement started in May with Taiwan. Switzerland was moved to the Treasury's "Monitoring List" of major trading partners that merit close attention to their currency practices, along with 11 other countries that remained on the list: China, Japan, South Korea, Germany, Ireland, Italy, India, Malaysia, Singapore, Thailand, and Mexico. For Switzerland, which tripped only the trade and foreign exchange intervention thresholds, the Treasury said it would continue to conduct an in-depth analysis of the alpine country's practices for another year. The department said it would continue to work with Vietnam and Taiwan to address U.S. ![]()

![]() ![]() This is not really what Andrew Greeley had in mind when he theorized about the Catholic Imagination in a slim volume published in 2000. “Heavenly Bodies” presents Catholicism as eye candy. Nevertheless, the overriding premise of the show remains troubling. Photo courtesy of the Metropolitan Museum of Art. Installation view of “Heavenly Bodies” at the Cloisters, Romanesque Hall Gallery. Their creations are clearly indebted to the pageantry and ritual that has shaped what curator Bolton refers to as their “Catholic imaginations.” Most of the represented designers-they include Dolce & Gabbana, Jean Paul Gaultier, Christian Lacroix, the House of Chanel, Alexander McQueen as well as Gianni and Donatella Versace, whose company is a sponsor of the show-hail from Catholic backgrounds. Opulent gowns and accessories adorn mannequins interspersed among the statuary, architectural fragments, and ritual objects in the museum’s Byzantine and Medieval collections. In the exhibition, the Vatican lendings are the foil for the even gaudier and visually outrageous bodily adornments by designers who playfully reference such Catholic tropes as crosses, cowls, halos, and angel wings. However, at $65, it is not likely to be a ready reference for the casual viewer.) (The two volume catalog is another matter, with formidable essays about the theological and liturgical underpinnings of the works on display. One could imagine an exhibition of ecclesiastical robes that explored their intricate iconography, place in Catholic liturgy, and social history. ![]() Digital composite by Katerina Jebb, courtesy of the Metropolitan Museum of Art. On loan from the collection of the Liturgical Celebrations of the Supreme Pontiff, Papal Sacristy, Vatican City. The unapologetic display of wealth and power embedded in these garments are reminders, as a wall label argues, that the Catholic Church has always employed beauty and pomp to draw the faithful into an appreciation of the glory of God. On occasion these histories give pause, as when a label reveals that a spectacular mitre (headdress) was presented to Pope Pius XI by Benito Mussolini, or that an opulent gold embroidered chasuble for the same Pope was created by the Poor Clares, an order of nuns dedicated to poverty. In the Anna Wintour Costume Center in the Fifth Avenue Met, these vestments and ritual objects are presented in vitrines with descriptions of their materials and provenance. Press reports have made much of curator Andrew Bolton’s remarkable success in convincing Church authorities to lend priceless artifacts from the Vatican Museum. “Heavenly Bodies” mixes actual ecclesiastical garments with clothing and accessories by leading couturiers who have been inspired by the symbols, narratives, and costumes and objects of Catholicism. ![]() What took this show to the next level was the way it created a dialogue between masterpieces in the museum’s holdings and the modes on display, thus placing fashion within the context of art history.Installation view of the Langon Chapel Gallery. More than 1.43 million people saw the show at the Met Fifth Avenue, and 228,737 at the Met Cloisters. “Heavenly Bodies,” the largest show ever staged by the Costume Institute or the museum, stretched out over more than 60,000 square feet in 25 galleries in two locations. It wasn’t only visitors’ imaginations that traveled either-step counts rose, too. Most of the exhibition was dedicated to exploring the diverse ways contemporary designers-whether faithful, lapsed, or nonbelievers-mined the legacy of liturgical garments and the rich symbolism of the Catholic church for their own aesthetic purposes, whether sacred or profane. “Heavenly Bodies” was built around a cache of papal robes and accessories from the Sistine Chapel sacristy, some of which had never been seen outside of the Vatican. What made this show a blockbuster? An inspired theme, for one. 1 show, 1978’s “Treasures of Tutankhamun,” which drew 1,360,957 visitors. Having attracted 1,659,647 visitors, the show is now the Metropolitan Museum of Art’s and the Costume Institute’s most visited exhibition, outshining the former No. The Costume Institute’s spring 2018 exhibition, “ Heavenly Bodies: Fashion and the Catholic Imagination,” has officially entered a higher realm. ![]() ![]() ![]() We will focus on energizing a strong iYouth following and work to create an engaged community to help nurture and support iYouth and iYouth affiliated endeavors.

I have a counter and a console.log() in an useEffect to log every change in my state, but the useEffect is getting called two times on mount. This means, that if you wish to wait x seconds, you'll have to multiply x * 20, as a tick is equal 1/20 seconds, hence 5 seconds will be equal to 100 ticks. Lastly, the last parameter: this is the actual delay, measured in TICKS. Whatever should be executed when the timer runs out, should go inside the curly braces. It should still work with the last Bukkit releases (1.7.2 / 1.7.9 ), but no significant testing has been done with these releases, so servers using those versions are better off using the latest OnTime V3.x release. Now every MineCraft server can track the playtime (current login, daily, weekly, monthly, and all time) for all players with this powerful.
