BEIJING yeezy boost 350 black uk sale , Oct. 31 (Xinhua) -- China's top legislature is considering to amend the country's Criminal Law to include criminal penalties for disrespect to national anthem.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 11 (Xinhua) -- In her first testimony to the Congress, U.S. Federal Reserve Chair Janet Yellen reiterated central bank's plan to taper its stimulus exit despite recent weakness in the economy.

The current economic situation and outlook, as well as the monetary policy yeezy boost 350 black uk , were the main focus of the hearing held twice a year.

Yellen told lawmakers she expected "a great deal of continuity" in the central bank's monetary policy, saying that she served on the Fed policy-setting committee as the bank formulated its current policy strategy and she strongly supported that strategy.

Yellen, 67, took the oath of office to lead the Federal Reserve System on Feb. 3, succeeding Ben Bernanke, who stepped down after eight turbulent years. She was previously the Fed's vice Chair.

In the public debut in her new role yeezy boost 350 moonrock uk sale , Yellen said while the economy gained steam at the end of 2013, recovery in the U.S. labor market was "far from complete," underscoring the importance of considering more than just the unemployment rate when evaluating the conditions of the labor market.

Her point of keeping an eye on wider range of labor indicators is particularly important as the unemployment rate, now at 6.6 percent, is near the 6.5 percent threshold the Fed once identified as the level that would need to be reached before officials would consider a hike in the interest rates.

"If coming information broadly supports the Committee's expectation of ongoing improvement in labor market conditions and inflation moving back toward its long-run objective, the Committee will likely reduce the pace of asset purchases in further measured steps at future meetings yeezy boost 350 moonrock uk ," Yellen indicated steady pullback in Fed stimulus, referring to the Federal Open Market Committee, which sets monetary policy.

While admitting she was "surprised" by the two recent jobs reports that showed the pace of job creation running under what she had expected, Yellen cautioned against jumping to conclusions of the longer trend. She told the Congress that the Fed needs to see a "notable change" in the economic outlook to consider pausing its withdrawal of stimulus.

The Fed trimmed its monthly purchases of Treasury and mortgage- backed securities by a total of 10 billion dollars in both December and January, citing strengthening economy and continued improvement in the labor market.

The Fed policymakers have suggested they would continue to reduce the bond buying, which now totals 65 billion dollars a month yeezy boost 350 turtle dove uk sale , at a similar pace at each Fed meeting and end it by the end of 2014, provided the economy develops generally in line with expectations.

Yellen also highlighted the Fed's financial regulatory role, saying that the work of making the financial system more robust " has not yet been completed."

Ivanka Trump, President Donald Trump's daughter and a White House advisor, on Saturday touted the creation of a new World Bank initiative to foster entrepreneurship among women.

The initiative launched this week, the Women Entrepreneurs Finance Initiative or We-Fi, aims to boost access to capital for businesswomen in the developing world.

"Fully unleashing the power of women in our economy will create tremendous value but also bring much-needed peace, stability and prosperity to many regions," Trump said during an event at the annual meetings of the World Bank and International Monetary Fund.

Women-owned businesses in the developing world suffer an annual credit deficit of $300 billion yeezy boost 350 oxford tan uk sale , either by being unable to borrow or receiving only high-cost, short-term credit, she noted.

"They say that women invest 90 cents on the dollar back in their family, their family's education, their family’s health and their community at large," she said.

Her appearance at an event comes amid strains between the Trump administration and international financial institutions. The United States this week opposed World Bank calls for a capital increase, calling instead for greater efficiency.

The White House this week also rejected IMF conclusions that tax cuts do not pay for themselves and that heavily indebted nations such as United States should pay down sovereign debts.

The Trump administration is currently pushing a tax cut proposal that critics say would balloon the US budget deficit.

World Bank President Jim Yong Kim on Saturday described Ivanka Trump as the "driving force" behind the new initiative yeezy boost 350 pirate black uk sale , which had received $350 million in donor commitments.

The US itself pledged $50 million to the fund in July but has proposed reducing its commitments to a separate fund that helps the world's poorest countries by 15 percent, according to The Wall Street Journal.
