Euro-zone unemployment hits new euro-era high

By William L. Watts

FRANKFURT (MarketWatch) -- The seasonally-adjusted unemployment rate across the 17 nations that use the euro rose to 10.9% in March from 10.8% in February, the European Union statistics agency Eurostat reported Thursday. The number of unemployed workers across the region rose by 169,000 to a total of 17.365 million, Eurostat said. Both figures are the highest seen since the launch of the euro in January 1999, said Howard Archer, chief European economist at IHS Global Insight in London. "It now looks odds-on that the euro-zone unemployment rate will move appreciably above 11% over the coming months with an ever growing danger that it will reach 11.5%," Archer said, in a note.

Here is the list - Fifties in consecutive innings in T20s

Correction: International record is by McCullum - 4, the above list is a bit messed up with respect to having international records in between

All Bullcrap 1337 speak from Audiophiles!!

I have owned some high end phones like Sennheiser IE8 and HD650 as well as AKG K705s. They simply don't change sound in any way. Burn-in is just a way for disappointed Audiophiles in justifying expensive purchase to their guilt.

If you are not satisfied with the sound, you will never be.

The only chances you may start to like sound:
1. A decent portable amp which makes your existing earphones work up to their full potential
2. Your brain Burns-in to the sound and you get used to it.
3. If you stop treating your music listening experience as Wine Tasting session.
