Obama names Gene Sperling as top economic adviser,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]
U.S. President Barack Obama announced on Friday that Gene Sperling would take the position of National Economic Council (NEC) Director,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], the top White House economic adviser.
Obama made the announcement during his Friday trip to a U.S. manufacturing company in Maryland. Former NEC Director Larry Summers,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], a Harvard professor,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], resigned at the end of last year.
Sperling,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], a counselor to U.S. Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], served the same position of NEC Director during the Clinton administration.
"Gene has been an extraordinary asset to me and this administration over the past two years. He has been working with me. He is a public servant who has devoted his life to making this economy work, and making it work specifically for middle-class families,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]," Obama noted.
Obama said that one reason he had selected Sperling was that in Sperling's tenure in the Clinton administration during the late 1990s,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], he helped formulate the policies that contributed to turning deficits to surpluses and a time of prosperity and progress for American families in a sustained way.
Obama also announced to elevate Jason Furman,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], deputy director of the NEC, to be principal deputy head of the agency,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], the number two slot at the NEC.
Obama named his pick of Heather Higginbottom,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], deputy director of the Domestic Policy Council,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], to serve as deputy director of the Office of Management and Budget. Obama also nominated Katharine Abraham, a commissioner of the Bureau of Labor Statistics during the Clinton administration,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], to be a member of the White House Council of Economic Advisers.The pace of U.S. jobs creation was picking up momentum and the economy was recovering,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], but there was still "a lot to do" to spur the economic growth, said Obama before announcing the appointments.
The U.S. Labor Department on Friday said that the country's unemployment rate dropped by 0.4 percentage points in December 2010 from November 2010,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], but still stood at 9.4 percent."Part of this team's mission in the months ahead will be to maximize the steps we have taken to spur the economy," Obama added.
Ugg boots (sometimes called uggs) are unisex sheepskin boots,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], made of twin-faced sheepskin with fleece on the inside and with a tanned outer surface,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], often with a synthetic sole. Ugg boots are believed to have been first developed in New Zealand or Australia,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], although the exact date is uncertain.There has been a dispute between manufacturers of [link widoczny dla zalogowanych],[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], as to whether "ugg" is a generic term and thus ineligible for trademark protection,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], especially in the region of origin. Deckers Outdoor Corporation holds the UGG trademark in more than 100 countries worldwide. Notable exceptions are Australia and New Zealand where the term is considered generic.
