How To Use The GTS (Global Trade Station) in Pokemon

If you liked this video, subscribe! There will be more like this on the way and lots of other cool and awesome stuff!

I am using Pokemon Diamond for my example since it focuses only on the trading aspect.

Platinum has a bunch more bells, whistles and doodads but for the most part I've noticed that a lot of people are still using D/P since they cannot afford or purchase Platinum at thise time.

It's the same thing in Platinum, just just have to walk forward further. The GTS is on the first floor. Don't take any of the Warp Panels unless you want to do the other stuff like Vs. Recorder, etc.

SO! ANYWAY!


I am going to teach you how to use the GTS. It confuses some people, and some just don't understand how it works.

It's quite simple really, but it helps if you have a giant number of Pokemon SEEN. If you've seen a Pokemon, like Skorupi, you can search for it, or put a Pokemon on Offer asking for the Pokemon you want.
If you want a Pokemon you haven't seen, such as Squirtle, you're out of luck.


Anyway, I run over the basics of finding a Pokemon, offering a Pokemon, and trading a Pokemon using the GTS.


Also, you can use the big Globe over there in the GTS Lobby to set your location and see areas where people live that you've traded with.
This isn't necessary, which is why I cut it from the video to save time and file size.

It's still an interesting option and you should check it out anyway.

This is the only way you can obtain foreign Pokemon without trading with someone who has a foreign game directly.



Also, I'm pretty sure that Seaking is still on Offer lol. So if you want a Pokemon from GekkouKitsune that has an interesting name nonetheless, go take a Ditto and search for female Seaking! (pun not intended. Search, seeking, seaking..?)

CEO Amy Grat, International Trade Education Progrmas (ITEP)

CEO Amy Grat, International Trade Education Progrmas (ITEP)

Los Angeles, CA -- The Foreign Trade Association selected ITEP or International Trade Education Programs as its holiday charity for this year's luncheon and donated a check
for $500. But when CEO Amy Grat of ITEP went up to the podium to collect the check, some added holiday cheer overwhelmed her with two more donations. One from Comerica Bank for $2,500. Later from an anonymous donor for $5,000. This blog interviewed Grat shortly after the luncheon at the Grand Wilshire in Downtown Los Angeles.


ITEP brings the trade, transportation, and logistics industries to high schools, giving students a reason to learn — a promising future with brighter opportunities. Through ITEP, students improve their academic performance and graduate ready for entry level jobs, technical school and college.

We also talked to the new FTA Chairman Steve Pasienki, director customs, International customs for Toyota about the economy, FTA in 2011, and his observations about ITEP

ITEP believes that by connecting students to professional opportunities in the trade, transportation and logistics industry, schools will have a positive change in graduation rates, attendance rates and employment statistics after graduation. To accomplish these goals, ITEP focuses its efforts on the following challenges:

Target Problems:

• The scarcity of skilled entry-level workers for maritime jobs
• Teens with little or no awareness of global issues
• Alarming high school dropout rates

ITEP's strategy focuses on four main aspects of academy programs:

• Core Courses
• Enrichment Curriculum
• Industry Electives
• Industry Certifications

By connecting industry leaders to these academy and curriculum enrichment programs, ITEP helps students better understand the importance of school - resulting in higher graduation rates, grade point averages, and self-esteem, leadership, and teamwork skills

International Trade and the G8

28. International Trade and Efficiency

This video introduces the economics of free trade as an application of the efficiency criterion (maximizing total surplus). Along the way, I demonstrate that although the efficient policy is to liberalize trade, free trade always creates losses for some domestic stakeholders. As it creates losses, there will always be an interest group who is politically opposed to any particular trade policy.

Dulux Trade BRC 2010 International Rally Yorkshire

There were two winners from this weekend's International Rally Yorkshire: Gwyndaf Evans/Claire Mole took overall honours on the Scarborough-based gravel event, but Keith Cronin took his second straight victory in the Dulux Trade MSA British Rally Championship, the first for his co-driver Barry McNulty.

Evans' win was a relatively easy one, but only after Craig Breen/Gareth Roberts rolled their Fiesta following a frustrating mechanical gremlin, which had already dropped the Irishman behind the 1996 British Rally Champion.

At the finish on Scarborough seafront Evans commented, "It was a difficult rally for everyone, It was so easy to make a mistake, but I'll treasure this win with the others this year. I'm delighted for the JRM team who have all worked really hard all season."

The victory was Evans' first on Rally Yorkshire, which has only been part of the championship in its present guise for less than ten years. But it was extra special for BRC returnee and Evan's third co-driver this season Claire Mole, who chalked up her first ever British Rally Championship event win.

Save Tigers & Bobcats!

!!!HELP SAVE THE TIGER & BOBCAT!!!

The Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora, also known as CITES, is an international treaty designed to control and regulate international trade in certain animal and plant species that are now or potentially may be threatened with extinction.

Currently, 175 countries, including the United States, are parties to CITES. The Convention calls for biennial meetings in which one of the functions is to consider amendments to the lists of species possibly threatened with extinction.

We have a unique opportunity to provide public comments to 2 items related to big cats that the United States plans to submit for consideration.

First, the US continues to support a strong stance on tiger conservation and efforts to address illegal trade in tiger and other Asian big cat parts and derivatives. Of course, Big Cat Rescue fully supports this position.

Second, a proposal exists to remove Bobcats from the current list of protected species. BIG CAT RESCUE DOES NOT SUPPORT THIS POSITION.

Please write a letter to our CITES representatives, and let them know that you support strong tiger conservation, but you insist that they keep the Bobcat under Appendix II Protection.

Visit this page to use our sample letter:

Never Too Old - World

April 2005
Advances in IVF, aided by a sinister international trade in human eggs, have enabled women in their sixties to become mothers. But how old is too old to have a baby?

Adriana Iliescu hugs her baby tightly and covers her with kisses. At the age of 66, she's just become a mother for the first time. "My life has been made complete. The emptiness I felt in my life has been filled," she raves. But many people are less delighted she's a mother. "I think there's a sense of ridiculousness about a woman of that age imagining that she fulfils the model of motherhood," states bioethics campaigner Josephine Quintavalle. Adriana's pregnancy would not have been possible without another woman's donated eggs. And that's led to a sinister new trade, where teenagers from impoverished countries like Romania are lured into selling their eggs. Nineteen year old Alina Nodoku was one such donor. But the procedure went horribly wrong and she ended up being rushed to hospital. "I was feeling very bad. I was dizzy, I was vomiting," she recalls. Now she fears she may not be able to have children of her own. "Egg donation is not an easy process. In a sense, it makes the ovaries explode," explains Josephine Quintavalle. "I don't think we have any right to expose any woman to these risks in order to provide somebody of 67 with a child."

Noam Chomsky on Bill Clinton, NAFTA, Paul Krugman, and Free Trade (1993 - Part 1)

December 10, 1993 http://www.amazon.com/gp/redirect.html?ie=UTF8&location=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.amazon.com%2FNoam-Chomsky%2Fe%2FB000AP81EC%3Fqid%3D1278217605%26sr%3D1-2-ent&tag=doc06-20&linkCode=ur2&camp=1789&creative=9325

Watch the full interview: http://thefilmarchived.blogspot.com/2010/08/noam-chomsky-on-north-american-free.html

The North American Free Trade Agreement or NAFTA is an agreement signed by the governments of Canada, Mexico, and the United States, creating a trilateral trade bloc in North America. The agreement came into force on January 1, 1994. It superseded the Canada-United States Free Trade Agreement between the U.S. and Canada. In terms of combined purchasing power parity GDP of its members, as of 2007[update] the trade block is the largest in the world and second largest by nominal GDP comparison.

The North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) has two supplements, the North American Agreement on Environmental Cooperation (NAAEC) and the North American Agreement on Labor Cooperation (NAALC).

The General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade (typically abbreviated GATT) was negotiated during the UN Conference on Trade and Employment and was the outcome of the failure of negotiating governments to create the International Trade Organization (ITO). GATT was formed in 1947 and lasted until 1994, when it was replaced by the World Trade Organization in 1995. The original GATT text (GATT 1947) is still in effect under the WTO framework, subject to the modifications of GATT 1994.

Paul Robin Krugman (born February 28, 1953) is an American economist, columnist and author. He is Professor of Economics and International Affairs at the Woodrow Wilson School of Public and International Affairs at Princeton University, Centenary Professor at the London School of Economics, and an op-ed columnist for The New York Times. In 2008, Krugman won the Nobel Memorial Prize in Economics for his contributions to New Trade Theory and New Economic Geography. He was voted sixth in a 2005 global poll of the world's top 100 intellectuals by Prospect.

The Nobel Prize Committee stated that Krugman's main contribution had been to explain patterns of international trade and the geographic concentration of wealth by examining the impact of economies of scale and of consumer preferences for diverse goods and services. Krugman's work on international economics, including trade theory, economic geography, and international finance has established him as one of the most influential economists in the world according to IDEAS/RePEc. Krugman is also known in academia for his work on liquidity traps and on currency crises.

As of 2006, Krugman had written or edited more than 25 books, 40 scholarly articles and 750 columns at The New York Times dealing with current economic and political issues. According to IDEAS/REPEC, ranking of Economists by journal article citations, he is one of the 15 most widely cited economists. Krugman's International Economics: Theory and Policy, co-authored with Maurice Obstfeld, is a standard college textbook on international economics. He also writes on political and economic topics for the general public, as well as on topics ranging from income distribution to international economics. Krugman considers himself a liberal, calling one of his books and his New York Times blog "The Conscience of a Liberal."

Question:
"What is the smartest decision you made in starting your linen business?"

Ming Friedman
Linen Pro Designs, Inc.
www.linenpro.com

Topics covered in this video:
International trade, advice, recommendations, import, export

I would say it would be having my own source in China. I went to a Canton fair after my first purchase and realized I could have paid half of what I had paid earlier. Since then I am not only going to the fair but I also go visit the factories. Sometimes the factory will be in the middle of nowhere but they appreciate my visit and know I must be serious about my business. As for the people who don't speak the language and understand the culture, I suggest starting out by looking for a trading company that you are comfortable working with. Even if you have to pay a small commission it will be worth it because the mistakes you could be making by not having the right help could be just devastating.

Around the World in 80 Trades - Mexico Part1

Economist Conor Woodman just might be the smartest man in the City. Once a high-flying City trader, he decided instead he wanted to trade in real things that he could touch and smell. So Conor left his job and, with £25,000 from the sale of his flat, travelled across four continents and 13 countries trading in all kinds of products animal, mineral and vegetable with the aim of doubling his money. Despite his City contacts, international trade proves hard for Conor. In Mexico, Conor has 750 inflatable body boards and reckons that an endorsement from the country's most famous surfer will help them sell. Meanwhile, he hopes to sell 400 bottles of tequila bought in the actual town of Tequila for a sizeable mark up.

Interview Patricia Francis, Executive Director, International Trade Centre

Patricia Francis, an award-winning leader and business facilitator, joined the International Trade Centre as Executive Director in June 2006.

During her tenure at ITC she has implemented a change management strategy to build common values and strengthen key management functions. ITC has defined and restructured itself around five new business lines, and extensive consultation has led to a stronger Strategic Framework.

The UN Millennium Development Goals have been mainstreamed within the organization, with new strategies and work around trade development related to gender, environment and poverty. New integrated country and regional programmes have been developed, and partnerships have been strengthened through active participation in the One UN initiative and greater coherence with many international and regional trade related organizations.

Ms Francis comes to ITC from Jamaica Trade and Invest, where she served as President since 1995. She was also a member of Jamaica's Cabinet Committee for Development. During her tenure Jamaica attracted more than US$ 5 billion in foreign direct investment.

She served twice as President of the World Association of Investment Promotion Agencies. She has chaired Organization of Economic Cooperation and Development's Caribbean Rim Investment Initiative as well as the China-Caribbean Business Council.

She has received awards from the Washington D.C. based Caribbean-Central American Action Council and from the King of Spain for her leadership and support for investment and business advocacy.

Ron Paul on the Economy, International Trade, AIDS and the Environment (1988)

1988 http://www.amazon.com/gp/redirect.html?ie=UTF8&location=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.amazon.com%2FRon-Paul%2Fe%2FB001I9TTX6%3Fqid%3D1278222385%26sr%3D1-2-ent&tag=doc06-20&linkCode=ur2&camp=1789&creative=932

Paul is a proponent of free trade and rejects protectionism, advocating "conducting open trade, travel, communication, and diplomacy with other nations." He opposes many free trade agreements (FTAs), like the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA), stating that "free-trade agreements are really managed trade" and serve special interests and big business, not citizens.

He voted against the Central American Free Trade Agreement (CAFTA), holding that it increased the size of government, eroded U.S. sovereignty, and was unconstitutional. He has also voted against the Australia--U.S. FTA, the U.S.--Singapore FTA, and the U.S.--Chile FTA, and voted to withdraw from the WTO. He believes that "fast track" powers, given by Congress to the President to devise and negotiate FTAs on the country's behalf, are unconstitutional, and that Congress, rather than the executive branch, should construct FTAs.

Paul also has an 83% voting record in favor of protectionism in the House of Representatives, according to Global Trade Watch.

In January 2008, Paul released an economic revitalization plan and named Peter Schiff and Donald L. Luskin as economic advisors to his campaign. National Journal labeled Paul's overall economic policies in 2006 as more conservative than 48% of the House and more liberal than 51% of the House. For 2008, his ratings were more conservative than 91% of the House and more liberal than 8% of the House (80% and 20%, respectively for 2007).

His warnings of impending economic crisis and a loss of confidence in the dollar in 2005 and 2006 were at the time derided by many economists, but accelerating dollar devaluation in 2007 led experts like former Federal Reserve chair Alan Greenspan to reconsider hard money policies such as those of Paul; in his 2007 memoirs, Greenspan described his nostalgia for the gold standard and warned that future conditions could cause "a return of populist, anti-Fed rhetoric, which has lain dormant since 1991."

When asked about his position on implementing the tenth amendment, Paul explained, "Certain medical procedures and medical choices, I would allow the states to determine that. The state law should prevail not the Federal Government." Speaking specifically about Drug Enforcement Administration raids on medical marijuana clinics Paul said, "They're unconstitutional," and went on to advocate states' rights and personal choice: "You're not being compassionate by taking medical marijuana from someone who's suffering from cancer or AIDS .... People should have freedom of choice. We certainly should respect the law and the law says that states should be able to determine this."

As a free-market environmentalist, Paul sees polluters as aggressors who should not be granted immunity or otherwise insulated from accountability. Paul argues that enforcing private property rights through tort law would hold people and corporations accountable, and would increase the cost of polluting activities - thus decreasing pollution. He claims that environmental protection has failed due to lack of respect for private property:

"The environment is better protected under private property rights .... We as property owners can't violate our neighbors' property. We can't pollute their air or their water. We can't dump our garbage on their property .... Too often, conservatives and libertarians fall short on defending environmental concerns, and they resort to saying, 'Well, let's turn it over to the EPA. The EPA will take care of us .... We can divvy up the permits that allow you to pollute.' So I don't particularly like that method."

He believes that environmental legislation, such as emissions standards, should be handled between and among the states or regions concerned. "The people of Texas do not need federal regulators determining our air standards."
