The 7 Sucky Stages of Entrepreneurship + What You Need to Get Out Of It
One of the biggest mistakes business owners make is not knowing what stage they are in business before making major decisions.
You see this all the time with website designs. Someone is super excited about starting a business and drops 6k on a website TOO EARLY and the branding becomes useless in a matter of months.
A newbie invests in a 30k mastermind only to find that they don't actually want to do ANY of the stuff they are currently learning how to do.
This isn't to say you don't learn a lot even when you buy or invest in something in the wrong stage. Many people can only pass through each of these stages with help and investing at different levels. They need that push.
This scale is just to help you get clarity on where you are and what type of investments you should be making (but no worries if you go beyond this).
Make no mistake, some people tend to skip through some of these steps but the average business owner gets to experience each of these at some point. FUN. NOT.
The "Okay, this seems cool" phase
This is when you are just hanging out with the idea of entrepreneurship. It's not something you are actively pursuing yet. You've subscribed to a few blogs. You've bought a product or two -- just out of curiosity. At this point you haven't really even decided it's something you definitely WANT TO DO. It's just kind of there in the background and kind of fun to think about.
What to buy: This is a TRICKY one. A lot of people need to really pull the trigger before they get out of this phase. Other people just need to read and podcast listen themselves out of it. That's why this is by far the HARDEST stage to get out of. I suggest products and services on productivity, freedom, mindset and career coaching
The "okay, this seems cool and I'm tired of this BULLSHIT" phase
This is when you are getting tired of the bullshit of your life. Maybe it's the boss who is a misogynist pig and you can't do anything about it. Perhaps it's your wanderlust that's really calling you in a way that it never has before. You are buying a little more, listening a little more and trying to get idea of what you might WANT to do. You are still not completely devoted to the idea yet.
What to buy: business mindset books, life coaching, overall "get your head around making the jump" type training, productivity
(Bonus!) The "okay, this seems cool and I'm tired of the BULLSHIT FOR REAL
This is when you are finally ready to start taking this business thing seriously -- or at least start really investing. Your current life isn't working and you want OUT. In fact, you might be a little impatient about it. This is when people tend to buy things the most.
What to buy: products and services about getting clarity on your purpose and path
The "I don't know what I'm doing and I'm freaked out about it" phase
You've decided -- a business is in your future but WTF are you going to do? WTF are you going to sell? How are you going to help people? I suggest the 100 People Project for this, by the way. This is the WORST time to buy unless you are focusing on products that are designed specifically to help you get clear on what you should be doing. Most people get stuck in this phase for YEARS. I've written a lot about how easy it is to "get off" on the feeling of not knowing what the hell you are doing. Starting a business is a new and BIG thing and it's gonna be hard.
What to buy: Products designed to get you figuring out what you want to do -- like 100 People Project -- products about money and general business building
The "I don't know what I'm doing but I don't care" phase
This is the phase everyone should be trying their best to get to because once you are here, the rest is super easy. This is the stage in every aspiring business owner''s life where they just accept the cold and hard truth that you are going to have to move forward EVEN when you don't know what the hell is going on. You will have to step into the unknown and be a-ok with that process.
What to buy: Business development courses, product design and branding offerings
The "ok, I know what I want to do but how do I get people to buy it" phase
You have a kind of clear vision of what you are doing. You've worked with some coaches and made some big investments but you struggle with the sales part. This is another huge "buying" stage for people.
What to buy: BRANDING products and services (hello Brand Bomb!). People tend to buy a lot of marketing and list building products but it's never what they need.
The "wait, maybe I don't know what I am doing" phase
When people aren't buying it's usually because the business owner isn't as clear as they need to be on what they are doing. This tends to result in a huge breakdown and then a final march to actually knowing what your business is actually about.
What to buy: More branding stuff, a good time to invest in 1-on-1 business development, life coaching, therapy (This tends to be a stressful time)
The "ooooooh, I get it" phase
You know what you are doing, you know who you want to do it for -- it's just all about testing, fine-tuning and growing. This is when you'll get into six figure range and beyond. Once you've mastered what you are doing and who for, the next stage is making your work IRRESISTIBLE for those people and reaching as many people as possible.
What to buy: This is when MOST of the business investment SHOULD happen because you can effectively use all of the stuff you are buying. Great time to invest in learning marketing strategist, list growth and overall business awesomeness.
Those are the stages of entrepreneurship for the newbie. Notice how a lot of the stages repeat themselves? That's because you will go in circles trying to make your business work and that is OKAY. It's just good to know where you are at and what is going to actually help get you to that next stage. Do you also notice how a lot of the big tempting type of products with huge promises are at the end? That's for a reason too. It takes a WHILE for business strategies to actually work on you. A lot of clarity needs to happen.
The work I do is best for the beginning and the middle of this journey.
The Idea To Income Stream challenge is good for people who are at the beginnings and middle and are just trying to figure out what the hell they are doing.
The Brand Bomb is excellent for people who are stuck in the "I know what I want to do but no one buys it" stage. It's also great for the "oh, I get it" people.
The 100 People Project is great for any stage but is especially good for beginners.
What do you think? Where are you on this scale?

Read all about Our Energy Solutions in the UK, Belgium, Germany and the Netherlands:
Climate change is a topic that has been receiving constant attention in the news and by experts for over a decade. We wanted to explore the general public's opinion about climate change and what they knew and felt about it. We decided to go out and ask people in DC and the surrounding areas in Maryland and Virginia in order to get a more diverse perspective on climate change.
These are the questions we asked anyone who was willing to answer our questions: Does climate change exist? Is climate change caused by human impact? On a scale from one to five, how much does climate change impact your life on a day to day basis? Can you give an example of how climate change affects you? Do you personally do anything to mitigate the effects of climate change? Do you or any of your neighbors have solar panels? Why do you think solar panels are not more popular in your area?
The interviews are a project of the Ecologic Institute summer interns 2015: Christina Ennis, Pauline Feldman and Andrew Staffelbach. Christina Ennis is a student at Virginia Tech majoring in International Studies. She was most surprised by how responses changed depending on where the interviewee was from. Participants from California, Utah, and Nevada felt much more negatively affected by climate change and more willing to take action. Andrew Staffelbach is a graduate student from the School of Public and Environmental Affairs at Indiana University at Bloomington. He was surprised by how informed the citizens were on the subject of climate change. Many knew specific details about how climate change impacts them and what they could do to individually change their behavior to reduce their impact on climate change. Pauline Feldman is a student at Cornell University.
In the video above, you can see the many differing responses we received and the local public's real opinion regarding the impacts of climate change. Please send us your feedback in the comment window below.
With an explosive investigation into the failures of the government agency responsible for ensuring pipeline safety by Politico and the growing list of pipeline accidents and spills (already 9 in the US this year alone), people are questioning not only the consequences to environmental health but also the risks to people and communities of new construction projects.
One popular alternative, and Warren Buffett investment strategy, is to ship oil and gas above ground, using America's storied railways. However, the shift to rail transport is not making the transport of fossil fuels safer, as the Washington Post reported in February. Continue reading Is there a safe way to transport fossil fuels?
A study recently published in the scientific journal Environmental Science: Processes and Impacts, came out with new findings detailing the contents of fracking wastewater, or the water that rises to the surface after hydraulic fracturing operations, also known as produced water. Produced water is not just water used in the fracking operation, but also water that was in or nearby the reservoir that was being pumped now that the geologic formation it was trapped in has been fracked.
There has been significant concern about the chemical content of this water and its possible effects on water tables, human health, and the surrounding environment. Researchers took samples from three wells and conducted analysis. They found that all samples had levels of toxic elements such as mercury and arsenic in excess of US federal contamination standards on water quality. They also found carcinogens at dangerously high levels. However they did not find ethylbenzene and other polyaromatic hydrocarbons, which had previously been thought to be dissolved in produced water. These two compounds are carcinogens. Significant amounts of halogenated hydrocarbons, such as chlorine and bromine were also found, which causes neurological damage in humans.
This research highlights problems with wastewater and fracking. It not only confirms the presence of toxic and carcinogenic elements in fracking wastewater it also identifies the challenges of cleaning produced water. The study calls for more research at different sites to establish a broader understanding of produced water and to develop better ways of cleaning produced water.

One of the main factors for the eventual car chosen comes down to the customers budget. This is why our range from personal to business lease with or without a deposit includes a wide range of vehicles for every kind of budget. Some fit into the higher end and a lot can be budgeted for by the individual or family that need to keep to a strict budget.
The rising cost of living means that more people are cautious with their money and this is reflected in their lifestyle choices. Most families need a car but many prioritise other things above having an expensive vehicle.
We have taken a look through some of the most practical vehicles for different uses all within an average car leaser's budget!
Chevrolet Spark 1.0 +
The very smallest car on the books comes with the smallest price. The Chevrolet Spark is a nifty and attractive looking car that is surprisingly equipped with a comfortable and fairly spacious interior. The boot space is somewhat average at 170 litres with the seats up but with seats down can load 568litres (Information taken from Chevrolet).
The Spark is ideal for those City commuters, first time buyers or anyone on a tight budget. The vehicle is an even more rounded money saver when you look into the combined fuel economy of 56.5 mpg so you can set less money aside for getting from A to B.
With a deposit of just £594 Inc. vat you are looking at paying under £100 and if you wish to avoid an upfront payment then you can go for the no deposit leasing option which brings the price just over the £110 amount and in keeping with even the lowest of budgets.
View the option's here: Personal Lease Chevrolet Spark
FIAT Punto 1.2 Easy
A functional and modern looking Punto which in terms of evolution is miles ahead of the previous Punto models and the quality of the cars has come on leaps and bounds too.
To look at, the Fiat Punto is one of the best small cars available. The budget is likely to appeal to most people too as it falls under the £150 per month mark when you put down a £594 deposit.
Alongside a cheap monthly payment you will be pleased with the fuel economy of the car, as according toWhatCar? the Fiat Punto can operate at 52.3mpg. The Punto falls into Tax Band D so it is chargeable at £60.50 for 6 months road tax.
The Punto 1.2 Easy come with alloy wheels, CD player, power steering, immobiliser, central locking and much more.

Renault Grand Scenic Estate Dynamique TomTom
When you have a growing family you are most likely going to be looking for a cost effective 7 seater. The myth that traditional people carriers are frumpy is quickly going out of the window now the popularity of bigger more practical cars has rocketed and manufacturers are taking time to design attractive MPV's.
Most manufacturers have a flagship estate for the bigger families and Renaults Grand Scenic is a fantastic example. They look great and the Dynamique 1.6 VVT TomTom model comes with some features most people associate with the higher end business style saloons.
Getting lost will be a thing of the past as will those unattractive circles on the dashboard when you use removable Satellite Navigation as the Grand Scenic comes with a built in reliable TomTom Sat Nav.
Arguably the biggest name in retail navigation devices has teamed up with Renault on other models such as the Renault Megane to add luxurious extras to more common vehicles.
With these models you can also get comfortable in the ample cabin space and up to 208 litres of boot space right up to an enormous 2063 litres if you opt to do without the rear 2 seats. (Figures taken from WhatCar?)
The Grand Scenic interior is further enhanced by the climate control, cruise control, power steering, electric and heated mirrors and CD player.
For security you can be safe in the knowledge that your car is protected by an alarm and immobiliser whilst you can gain entry through central locking.
You will be looking at just over £200 per month for this fantastic vehicle including vat but for that kind of money it seems near impossible to find a quality 7 seater with even half of the features the Grand Scenic can boast.
View the options for the Renault Grand Scenic here: Personal Lease Renault Grand Scenic
Renault Clio 1.2 Dynamique MediaNav
The Clio range is another long standing member of the small car family. You will almost certainly of owned a Renault Clio or know someone who has had one of the various models down the years. Well known for being attractive little cars with plenty of features and affordable at the same time.
The latest Renault Clio is a fantastic evolution on the previous popular and smaller model. It has been a trend amongst car manufacturers that their usually compact hatchbacks have had a facelift and in fact grown in length. This could be down to the growing market for hatchbacks among small families and the need for them to be more practical with boot space and interior leg room.
Similarly to the Megane and the Grand Scenic the new range of Clio's are available with Media Nav satellite technology which gives a luxurious feel to a car normally associated with standard driving and minimal gadgets.
As well as a touchscreen Sat Nav you can drive safely using the built in Bluetooth and listen to your favourite music on the CD player with MP3/iPod Connectivity.
Not forgetting that budget is the key and you will be able to enjoy fuel economy of up to 51.4mpg, low tax and insurance quotations suitable for most age and experienced drivers.
Including your vat you will be looking at a budget of £180 comfortably getting you into a Clio with all these features and much more
View the options for the Renault Clio 1.2 Dynamique here: Personal Lease Renault Clio Dynamique
These are just a selection of the very best budget cars and Hippo Leasing have hundreds more in stock ready to be delivered throughout the UK. Whether your budget is around £100 or your budget is irrelevant we can find the perfect car for you. All well-known makes and models are catered for with or without a deposit.

By Proof
I watched most of Turbo Tax Timmy's interview on Fox News Sunday this AM. (Transcript here.) A few things, I thought, were notable.
One was the apparently focus grouped word "cloud". Three times Turbo Tax Timmy mentioned "raising the cloud of default" that hovers over the country.
The idea that we're going to spend another seven months lifting the cloud of default from the American economy...
But they're going to look at whether we lift the cloud of default off the American economy...
And if Congress makes some sensible decisions right now, lifts this cloud of dysfunction, of default, off of the American economy...
He also used "specter" (the ghost, not Arlen) and I believe misspoke it once as "spectrum".
...we're trying to do avoid not just default today, but the specter of default in the future.
Note particularly the partisan blame game in this next quote:
And this spectrum of default that Republicans have put over the country is hurting the confidence of average Americans.
So, when Democrats controlled the House, the Senate, and the White House in 2010, and were Constitutionally required to submit a budget by October of 2010, wherein they could have addressed any budgetary cuts required, they failed to do so and this is why the Republicans are at fault? Takes two to tango, Timmy! The Democrats' failure to provide any leadership at all up to this point is what fomented the crisis. And now, any Republican plan is met by demagoguery from the Dems (You can't spell "demagogue" without "dem"), which is what they do best.
For the Dems to paint themselves as blameless in this negotiation, in which there are things upon which they themselves will not compromise (like class envy), is rank hypocrisy. Had the 2010 budget been passed, perhaps there would at least be more of a framework to work with here.
However, it was for political reasons that the Dems abdicated their Constitutional duties. They knew that if the voters saw exactly how irresponsible their spending plans were, there would have been more Democrats defeated in 2010. So they ignored the Constitution for the sake of holding on to power, hiding their intentions from the will of the people, so that there would be more of them to demagogue whatever plan the real adults in the room, the Republicans, would put forward.
On a side note, when you're watching the Sunday shows, listen for that one word or phrase that keeps creeping into the conversation, like "cloud of default". It usually means that it's a word that focus groups reacted favorably to. In other words, it will help people buy what you're selling! The most adept interviewees will work this word both into their opening statement and again the last sentence they utter. The gratuitous use of the word in between those two statements is what the spinmeisters hope you will take away from their efforts.
Anyway, little Timmy believes that raising the "cloud of default" that hovers over the country is to do that which is "most important". Actually, kicking this can down the road past the next election is what this administration considers most important.
"We have to lift this credit default from the economy for -- you know, for the next 18 months. We have to take that threat off the table through the election"Yeah. Right! Obama does not want his stewardship of the economy to be an issue in the 2012 election. The Dems would rather sweep it under the rug than to deal honestly with a problem that affects every household in the country. Notice that Obama and the Dems have stated they will not negotiate on any plan that needs to be re-examined between now and November 2012. Getting Obama re-elected is, as Ford used to say, "Job One".
There is class envy in Geithner's answers. The so called "shared burden", which of course means taking more from those who are productive, because the poor don't have a lot to share. (More on this in another post.) Note the language that Geithner uses, and know that it is not accidental. Geithner wants to raise taxes on the "most fortunate Americans". Get that? people haven't really earned their money, they just "got lucky". "Fortune" smiled upon them and money apparently rained from the skies!
The hypocrisy in this? Our tax code is not set up to tax the fortunate, so much as people who actually produce something. If you inherited a lot of money, you may be "fortunate", but that's not "income". If you work for a living, or own a small business, that's income. And small businesses, which create the bulk of jobs in this country, are squarely in the cross hairs of this administration and their tax "revenue" plans.
Unfortunately, most liberals use a "static" model of the economy, which is "How do you divide up a pie that always stays the same size?" Only, it doesn't stay the same size. More economic activity can increase the size of the pie, providing more and more to more people, while disincentives can discourage economic growth and production and leave an even smaller "pie" to be divided.
Liberal ideologues, like Obama and Geithner talk about increasing tax "revenues", when historically, revenues to the treasury have increased with the introduction of tax cuts**. Tax cuts stimulate the economy, which employs more people who become taxpayers and increases the volume of productivity, which means the government collects less tax on any given individual, but more than makes up for it in the volume.
To the liberal ideologue, this is unacceptable. It offends their sense of "fairness". They would rather see Americans unemployed and businesses ruined than to compromise their class envy based belief system. Candidate Obama said as much, that he would make taxes more "fair" even if it meant less revenue to the government. This was long before he told Joe the Plumber that he wanted to "spread the wealth".
Then, there is the obligatory: "Bush did it." When Chris Wallace pressed Geithner on poor unemployment and growth issues, here's what he had to say:
the American economy is still suffering undeniably from the tragic after-effects of the crisis this president inherited.Translation: The effects of Bush's spending and participation in two "unpaid for" wars were so bad that Obama spending three to four times as much and involving us in yet another war and assorted :kinetic military actions" (KMA seems to be a recurring theme for the Obama administration, along with WTF*) cannot be blamed. The "denial" is all ours! Shutting down oil production in the Gulf and refusing to allow drilling and other activities that would increase the nation's wealth (and tax a portion of it as it grows) is not as important as appeasing the environmentalist wackos and trying to foist "green" solutions to every problem. Despite massive influxes of government cash, electric car companies and solar companies are going bankrupt or cutting back. Obama is sacrificing the economy of today for some imaginary tomorrow. Obama and Tim Geithner's plans for "winning" sound more like Charlie Sheen's.
I'll post video from the interview as soon as it becomes available.
*They say it means "Winning the future". Most people say it with regards to the present actions of the president.
**JFK knew this. If only we had a few Democrats like JFK again! Well, in a sense we do. They're all Republicans now!

Home > Blogs > A Trove of VMware Exam Profiles Right Here at PITC
In cruising over PearsonITCertification.com (PITC) this morning, I couldn't help but notice a grand collection of VMware exam profiles available to readers, with five recent entries posted over the past 10 months. Almost anybody considering a VMware exam is likely to find this material useful, as the exam profiles provide an overview of the technical content and level of difficulty of the exams they cover.
A carefully crafted Google search proved necessary to tease out the relevant items, as I couldn't make PITC's own search engine zero in on those particular exams, to the exclusion of other Exam Profile stories (of which there are more than a hundred in total, on topics from Cisco, CompTIA, Microsoft, ISC-squared, and many other exam sponsors and providers). Here's what my google search returned, first in pictorial form, then with relevant links:
5 Exams Get "Exam Profile" Coverage in 2013 from PITC
Here are the relevant links:
There's also another June 2012 profile on the VMware Certified Design Expert (VCDX) exam available from Harley Stagner as well, for those interested in one of VMware's pinnacle level credentials. With the rampant rise of virtualization technologies these days, both in their own right and in connection with cloud computing, VMware certs are in extremely high demand, so these exam profiles can help you understand what they cover, and what you must learn to get past them. If VMware certs are on your radar these profiles can help you decide what you must do to prepare, how much effort will be involved in that activity, and whether or not you can include plans for VMware certification in your 2014 personal development plans. Be sure to check them out!

Paddy Power Bingo is without doubt one of the biggest names in UK bingo online these days so we thought we'd put together an up to date review of what's on offer so that we can show you what his very amusing adverts can't such as the chance to win a daily bonus…
Keeping His Finger On The Pulse
One of the best things about this site is that it changes constantly and reflects what's going on in the UK year round. Having recently had it's own celebration of Big Brother for example, Paddy enjoys giving his players what they want without doubt. Add this to his current new player bonus 400% cashmatch offer which extends up to £40 and you can see straight away how this site has plenty to tempt you in. So, to get your bonus simply spend £10 on bingo and you'll get a £25 as Slot bonus + £15 as Bingo bonus and play with £40! After becoming a fully fledged friend of Paddy we suggest you then friend him on Facebook or follow him on Twitter to make sure you're on the very cutting edge of what's going on throughout the site. With exclusive offers hosted on both of these social sites, you'll be able to better share what's going on for you with your fellow roomies and grab bonuses for the likes of Lucky Clovers or even specific competitions you won't find elsewhere!
He's So Very Special..
Paddy is a clearly an advocate of amazing daily Specials and what with the likes of £15k guaranteed given away daily, Penny and 1TG games on Tuesdays, the 500 Star Points given away on Wednesdays, his Legs 11 promo held on Thursdays and the £30 Boogie Nights feature on Fridays from 6.30pm it's easy to see that this showcase alone is a fair demonstration of Paddy's Power!
Cheeky Chat For All
There's plenty of fun to be had on the weekend too of course and the best news of all is that the culmination of Paddy's biggest monthly promos will usually coincide with a weekend so that no one need miss out on the fun. In other words, the fun is always fresh for the weekend with Paddy though there are some stalwarts you can always rely on such as the £1, 500 Saturday night game! Paddy also increases the bets in the Titanium Room every weekend giving you the chance to play multi stake bingo, so pay £1.20, win up to £600!

Scotland is an ancient European nation.
That simple truth, perhaps more than any other, undermines the recent ludicrous scaremongering of the anti-independence parties in relation to our place in the European family of nations.
For centuries Scotland was an independent European country, trading with our near neighbours on the Continent. And while that long pre-dated the modern European Union, the point is this: those same trading and economic considerations mean the EU and its constituent partners will want Scotland to continue in membership.
Why on Earth would they not, given the huge resources and advantages that Scotland brings to the European table?
Our greatest asset as a nation always has been and always will be our people and their ingenuity, but Scotland also has enormous natural resources.
And it is stretching credibility beyond breaking point to attempt to suggest, as some do, that Scotland – already an integral part of the club for four decades – would be excluded when we have such vast assets.
Scotland has around 90% of the EU's oil reserves and a huge share of the Continent's renewable energy, as well as some of the richest fishing grounds in Europe.
Would Brussels really want to lose such assets at a time when energy security is one of the dominating political and economic issues of the early 21st century?
Would Spanish, French and Portuguese fishermen want to be blocked from fishing the lucrative waters in Scotland's sectors of the North Sea and West Atlantic?
These are just a few of the many examples which could be cited which show that for overwhelming practical, political and economic reasons, the nations of Europe will be only too keen to see Scotland remain in EU membership.
And there is precedent which shows that, when hard-headed concerns like this are brought to bear, Europe is a flexible institution.
Realpolitik is a German concept and it found perhaps one of its greatest modern expressions in the country which gave birth to the term.
When the Berlin Wall fell in late 1989, few at that point would have expected a united Germany to be part of the then European Community within less than 12 months – but that is exactly what happened when German reunification took place on October 3, 1990.
Overnight, East Germany, which had been subject to Communist rule for four decades, became part of the Brussels club, despite stringent rules for new members which say a functioning market economy and a well-established democracy are fundamental prerequisites for membership.
Realpolitik – hard-headed political considerations – meant that the former East Germany was in.
How much more straightforward is Scotland's case, given our 40 years of existing membership, which by definition means we already meet the required criteria. The attempts by some in the anti-independence camp to conflate the argument surrounding the East German precedent in an attempt to draw comparisons between that country and modern Scotland are truly pathetic and simply betray the utter paucity of their arguments.
As a joint paper published earlier this year by the Royal Society of Edinburgh and the British Academy put it: "There is no reason why an independent Scotland would fail to meet the Copenhagen criteria (the basic standards required to be eligible for EU membership, including democratic governance, the upholding of human rights and a functioning market economy)."
That same paper also observed that an independent Scotland's continued EU membership is "unlikely to be opposed".
Our consistent position – as attested to by documents published since 2007 – is that the specific terms of Scotland's continued EU membership will need to be negotiated. And while it is perfectly reasonable to argue that we would jointly inherit the existing UK opt-outs on the single currency and Schengen, it is nevertheless the case that on the question of the euro, for example, there is effectively a double-lock – there are other EU countries which have not adopted the single currency and have no intention of doing so, with Sweden perhaps the best example, that no nation can be forced into euro membership. And on Schengen, opting to stay out and instead co-operate with Ireland and the rest of the UK in the Common Travel Area is a justifiable proposition that, given their position in other circumstances, our EU partners would understand.
The pro-independence cause also now has the unlikeliest of allies on the currency issue: David Cameron. The Prime Minister has backed up the view of the many experts who say no country can be forced into euro membership when on Friday he said: "There are countries in the European Union who have no early or immediate or indeed longer-than-that prospects of joining the euro, and I think that is the important point."
Mr Cameron, under pressure from Tory Eurosceptics, has unwittingly demolished one of the anti-independence campaign's favourite scare stories.
That persistent undercurrent of Tory Euroscepticism – which in itself poses the biggest threat to Scotland's continued EU membership – has now helped to hole below the waterline the baseless scaremongering of Alistair Darling and the rest of the No campaign. An independent Scotland will keep the pound, and David Cameron has now confirmed it.
The opinion of European Commission President Barroso is important and is to be respected, as I said to Holyrood last week. However, it is by no means the only or the decisive opinion in the matter of Scotland's future in Europe.
I have asked Mr Barroso for a meeting, and I look forward to laying out the agreed process and pathway to an independent Scotland, as outlined in the Edinburgh Agreement, which will see us confirm our place as one of the historic nations of Europe.

Knoxville natives Royal Bangs and COOLRUNNINGS performed at Pilot Light, a small bar located in the Old City, this past Saturday at 10 p.m. The small venue, although not the greatest place in the world, created a perfect backdrop for the two bands, and the $5 fee at the door provided an experience and ticket to a band worth seeing live.
Royal Bangs put on a great show and it was evident that the audience was enjoying the music provided by their fellow Knoxvillians. The upbeat music filled the small venue and created high energy in the crowd. The lead singer and instrumentalist, Ryan Schaefer, graced the crowd with his deep voice while the other two band members, drummer Chris Rusk and guitarist Sam Stratton, were in sync.
Influenced by Passion Pit, Royal Bangs have a sound that is unique to other bands in the indie rock genre; their technique shown through notes and electronics gives them an consistently unexpected edge. Performing songs from their newest album, "Flux Outside," released in 2011, Royal Bangs gave a solid performance.
The show started off with a short set by COOLRUNNINGS. Brandon Biondo, a multi-instrumental member of the band, stood on stage by his computer, synthesizer and keyboard and played music that could be described to have multiple musical qualities. Songs would initially start off with an '80s vibe, then dubstep, then punk. The music was disorganized and unoriginal; bands like Chromeo and LCD Soundsystem do it much better.
Emily Lynn Ashton, junior in psychology, said that although she appreciated both the bands being from Knoxville, COOLRUNNINGS was not exactly what she expected.
"He played music that is definitely something I'm not used to," Ashton said. "It was really echoic and really hard to understand him, but overall it was a really cool vibe and sound."
COOLRUNNINGS did not give the best performance, considering their music was a little flat and too unoriginal to really be appreciated, but the music did get the crowd hyped for what was coming.
Pilot Light has been frequented by bands like The Black Keys and The Gossip. As a venue with some credibility, someone who has never been there before would probably expect a different setting from how it actually is; the room is small and cramped, there are only limited places to sit and the floors are sticky from spilled beer.
"It's my first time really doing something like this so I don't know what to expect," said Sarah Watson, sophomore in journalism and electronic media. "I would have wanted something bigger (and) airier because it's really hot in here, but it is fun, too."
The venue's stage was small and the bands both seemed to be fixated in one place, barely moving around on stage and not able to really interact with the crowd. Pilot Light is open every night, not only when live performances are scheduled, and is more bar-like than most other concert venues, but ultimately did the job and both bands sounded good enough for a show.
The highlight of the night is usually the main band, and this concert was no different. Although COOLRUNNINGS had a fun '80s style as an appetizer, the main course and dessert was the music and performance provided by Royal Bangs; their music was genuine and original and the vibrations went through the walls of the venue.

Old Navy's sales rise, lifting Gap's 3Q profit up 25% to best results this decade
The parent of The Gap, Old Navy and Banana Republic posted net income of $307 million, up 25% over a year ago with the 44 cents per share in earnings hitting analysts' target for the period. Executives said the company reaped its best third-quarter operating profit in 10 years by increasing its profit margins through tweaking its merchandise mix and controlling costs.Gap managed to increase its gross profit by 11%, despite spending more on marketing heading towards the holidays. Gap and Old Navy spent an extra $40 million in fall marketing, including the kickoff of the first Gap TV ads since 2006, said Chief Financial Officer Sabrina Simmons. Gap is expecting marketing expenses will rise another $45 million in the fourth quarter.
Inventories were down 10% below last year, and the company is shrinking overall. Gap plans to end the year with 50 fewer stores; most of the closings so far have been Gap stores. But Gap plans to increase inventory in areas that are showing popularity with customers, such as Old Navy, so inventories are expected to be flat in the fourth quarter, Simmons said.
Sales were up 1%, but comparable sales -- for stores open at least a year -- were flat. The sales figures got a push from a 10% increase in comparable sales at Old Navy, which offset drops of 7% at The Gap and 6% at Banana Republic stores. Old Navy got a strong push from sales of kids and baby clothes, while going back to basics with the introduction of the 1969 denim line at The Gap gave that chain a traffic boost, said Gap CEO Glenn Murphy.
Denim is a heritage for The Gap, which started out as a jeans store. But Murphy noted it's also a good repeat business, if The Gap can hook back those customers it had lost. Jeans are a need for shoppers, not a discretionary purchase like other apparel, he noted.
"If we can be a dominant player again...the upside for us is getting people on a regular basis," said Murphy.
Gap has been working on generating traffic for the last six months, said Murphy. It has retooled stores and merchandise in all three chains, launched new prototype stores for Old Navy meant to make them easier to shop. It is also revamping Banana Republic's store layout. The first three new Banana Republic prototypes -- featuring an arrangement of products boutiques, rather than mens and womens departments -- opened in the last month in Las Vegas, Scottsdale, Ariz. and New York's Soho; 50 new Old Navy prototype stores have opened nationwide, with more coming.
"We still have a lot of work to do," said Murphy. "But it's good to see the work we've done."
Specialty apparel retailers are looking nervously at the holiday stakes, after last year's debacle. Apparel sales have only recently begun to recover from the low's of last winter.
Murphy noted that while the fourth quarter always shows stronger sales than the third, last year that dynamic was reversed when retailers were forced into wholesale markdowns. And while this holiday is looking better, he warned it is still going to be very competitive. Sales are still very volatile and any gains show "not much traction," he said.
That volatility is a challenge to merchandisers, Murphy said. Both he and Simmons said the Gap units have "contingency plans" to react to consumer demand.
"We know the customer is really looking for value, so we're going to play hard," said Simmons. "You're going to see us compete on Black Friday."

There are only two songs I even vaguely like on the disappointing new album by The Veronicas. One is "Untouched," which will deservedly be the second single as well as, it would seem, an early fan favorite. Lyrically a kind of update of "Like A Virgin," the song is terrifically arranged: the urgent strings are at the forefront of what you'll hear, but they wouldn't work half as well if they were not juxtaposed against dementedly bouncy synths that are equal parts electroclash and happy hardcore, and those trashy, buzzsaw guitars.
Though less immediate, the other song worth repeated plays is "Revenge Is Sweeter (Than You Ever Were)." Its charms however come from a different place: namely, from the way it goes against much of the rest of the album, or, indeed, The Veronicas' entire sound. No, the song is not a startling big band number. The Origliasso twins traffic, of course, in teen angst, and most of the time they convey this by allowing their verses to build and build until things come to a head in the choruses, during which: be prepared to duck. On this album, unfortunately, it feels too much like we should also be prepared to turn down the volume or stick in the earplugs, because on Hook Me Up's choruses -- which tend to be not catchy enough, to boot -- the girls too often cross the line into shrieky bansheedom.
But not on "Revenge Is Sweeter": despite its title, which might make us expect extra spite and venom, the track begins almost as a ballad. On the pre-chorus, as synths arrive to join the chiming guitars, things predictably get more frenzied and shriller: "Are you even listening when I talk to you?/Do you even care what I'm going through?/Your eyes stare, and they're staring right through me/You're right there, but it's like you never knew me/Do you even know how much it hurts/That you gave up on me to be with her?" But then, quite unexpectedly, the tune deflates, trails off into the title line: "revenge is sweeter than you ever were." I love this downturn -- because, as I've suggested, it is a refreshing change from the way other Veronicas songs develop. But there's a bit more to it. When a Veronicas song turns up the volume and the intensity while going from verse to chorus, it acquires bravado; on "4Ever," for instance, the band is never surer that the night will last forever than during the "yeah yeah"s. In contrast, here on "Revenge Is Sweeter," Lisa and Jessica sound uncertain in the conclusion they supposedly reach; revenge might sweeter than he ever was, but the insight itself is bittersweet and offers considerably less consolation than we might expect. In that non-triumphant moment of ambivalence, the Veronicas for once sounds grown-up.

NEW YORK (TheStreet) -- When News Corp. (NWSA - Get Report) reports its fiscal second-quarter earnings on Feb. 6, investors will be eager to hear from Robert Thomson, the editor turned CEO, who is trying to grow a newspaper company that no longer can lean on its U.S. film and television properties.
Chief among investor concerns will be the future of DJX, News Corp.'s ambitious attempt to carve out a larger piece of the lucrative market for financial information services, much of it data, that is dominated by rivals Bloomberg and Thomson Reuters (TRI - Get Report).
On Tuesday, Thomson, a former editor-in-chief of Dow Jones & Co. and managing editor of The Wall Street Journal, executed the departure of Lex Fenwick, whom he helped to hire in February 2012 when he proclaimed that the former head of Bloomberg would be "driving our plans to grow all our Dow Jones franchises into true innovative market leaders for today's digital world."
But Fenwick's well-known aggressive style never meshed with Dow Jones, prompting a stream of resignations and a plummeting of morale, said Ken Doctor, the Outsell analyst who writes the Newsonomics blog. Most importantly, DJX, which began operating in November, was refashioned as a one-size-fits-all product for which customers were told to take it or leave it. Many Dow Jones clients, Doctor said, took Fenwick up on the offer and terminated their contract rather than pay for a doubling or even tripling of their subscription price.
"It's been a marketplace disaster," Doctor said.
Thomson must now decide whether to even retain DJX or concentrate on the company's flagship property, The Wall Street Journal, similar to how New York Times Co. (NYT - Get Report) sold the Boston Globe and other properties to focus on its foremost news organization. The News Corp. chief executive, who is running a company for his first time, must also decide what to do with two high-profile but money-losing operations, the New York Post and Times of London.
"Thomson's charge as the CEO is to figure out that transition," Doctor said in a phone interview on Wednesday. "Beyond the money involved, [News Corp Chairman Rupert] Murdoch bought the Journal in part to do damage to The Times, and they took their eye off the ball."
The problem for News Corp. is that it's not Bloomberg or Thomson Reuters, two much larger companies that can afford to take chances on non-core ventures with the knowledge that its main is reasonably healthy. News Corp. remains the largest newspaper company in the world but its strength is centered on the Journal rather than Factiva and the products that comprise DJX.
"This is the first defining legacy of Robert Thomson," Doctor said. "As CEO he is cleaning up his own mess, and doing it fairly rapidly. Most people expected that Fenwick would have all of 2014 to prove out his model. Thomson is probably is going to make more decision more quickly."
In a statement Tuesday, News Corp. said DJX would be repriced with greater flexibility. News Corp. was falling 1.1% on Thursday to $16.46. Shares have gained 5.1% over the past six months compared with an 8% advance for the S&P 500.

Dallas Cowboys
Cowboys kicker Dan Bailey's back getting close to 100 percent
Dan Bailey is almost back to normal … no pun intended.
The Cowboys kicker woke up with a stiff back in San Francisco on Oct. 2. He nearly missed the following week's game against Cincinnati, as the Cowboys worked out kickers leading up to the game.
Finally, though, Bailey is close to 100 percent.
"Last week in Green Bay, I felt pretty close to being there," Bailey said. "It wasn't quite there. At the same time, I'm kind of somewhat of a perfectionist, so I like for everything to be exactly as it should be at least in my head. I think just judging that progression and this week off, and we'll have another week of practice, I think I'll be good [for the Eagles game on Oct. 30]."
Bailey missed a 47-yarder wide left in the 24-17 victory over the 49ers, though he had only one of his five kickoffs returned past the 25. He had three touchbacks, and the 49ers had returns to their own 22 and the 29.
"After the game, it became apparent there was something there probably pre-existing," Bailey said. "As far as how it came about, I just literally went to sleep and woke up in the morning and couldn't move hardly. It's kind of a crazy way for it to happen."
The Cowboys had safety Jeff Heath kick in practice the next Wednesday before working out three kickers the following day. Ultimately, though, Bailey kicked against the Bengals.
"It was weird, because I had never been in that position before," Bailey said. "I think that was the first practice I ever missed, college or here. That's 10-plus years of not ever being through that. Especially early in the week, I had my doubts [of playing] for sure. As the week went on, I thought it was something I could be able to manage come game day, and it turned out I was able to do that."
Bailey tried no field goals against the Bengals and Cincinnati started at the 25 or inside the 25 all five times he kicked off. Last week against Green Bay, Bailey went 3-for-3.
Despite missing two field goals this season, Bailey remains the NFL's all-time most accurate kicker at 90.116 percent.
"The bye week comes at a good time. Get some rest. Hopefully get back to 100 percent," he said. "Really the past two or three weeks have just been about managing, kind of trying to keep it under control and then hopefully get it back this week."

In a HyperText Markup Language (HTML) document, radio buttons are a type of visual element that can be selected by a user. HTML radio buttons are unique, because they offer the user several options but only allow one of the given options to be selected at any one time. One of the most common uses for HTML radio buttons is to capture a choice within user input forms, although they also can have their selection and de-selection events intercepted by scripts or other programs, allowing them to act as instant selectors for other elements on a web page. Through the use of cascading style sheets (CSS) and JavaScript®, HTML radio buttons can use custom images for display, overriding their default appearance. Examples of situations in which HTML radio buttons could be used include selecting a gender, which can only have one value from two different options, or choosing a single shipping address when multiple addresses are listed.
In some aspects, HTML radio buttons are similar to HTML checkboxes. Each button is assigned an image or text label that is displayed where the button is located within a layout. Next to this label is a circle that is empty when the radio button is not selected and has a dot or other fill pattern inside it when it is selected. A user can click on the circle to select it; the unique aspect of HTML radio buttons is that, when a button is selected, all other buttons in the same group are de-selected, allowing only one item to be chosen at a time. This is unlike checkboxes, which are similar but allow any number of options to be selected at once.
There are two values within the properties of HTML radio buttons that are important to their use. The first is the name field that identifies the group to which a radio button belongs within an HTML document, and the second is the value field. When a button is selected, all other radio buttons with the same name, also called their group, are deselected. Using different group names allows different sets of radio buttons to exist within the same document. The value tag is the actual return value for the radio button when it is selected and submitted to a script or program for processing.
One of our editors will review your suggestion and make changes if warranted. Note that depending on the number of suggestions we receive, this can take anywhere from a few hours to a few days. Thank you for helping to improve wiseGEEK!

This artwork is in partial response to The Climb II by Melanie Manos, an artist Black has yet to meet in person but from whom he draws inspiration (a frequent occurrence among Dash artists). Playing with the way Manos negotiates and manipulates architecture, Black transforms industrial materials he finds at construction sites and preserves them as precious sculpture. Both artists challenge our perceptions of physical space and familiar structures.

Video projection; 6 min., 10 sec.
Always striving for the next step (often a difficult and new step) and sometimes problem-solving in front of a crowd are basic components of experimental artistic practice. In The Climb II, Manos draws the viewer into the journey as we watch and root for her success. Ultimately, we become a part of a shared experience.

This small-scale video installation explores narrative associations and patterns through close observation of the natural world. Witnessing objects at various stages of life and death (consuming and decomposing) reminds us that we are all part of a codependent, supportive network.

Khan places Pakistani iconography onto a box truck in an effort to introduce Pakistani imagery into the American landscape. Road to Hybridabad was driven from Detroit to Atlanta to deliver Ben Wolf's Tint Token for Rachel's Killin' It. The piece functions both as a good deed do-er, and an aesthetic strategy to develop a cultural hybridity.

The Fed laid the first stone on the path to higher rates with its discount rate hike, giving the markets a new way to gauge the economic recovery.
As a result, there will be heightened focus on interest rates around the Treasury's auction of $118 billion in notes in the coming week, as well as on two days of Congressional testimony from the Fed chairman himself.
Markets had entered the past week on edge that the Fed and other governments were ready to pull back on the global stimulus that has pumped liquidity into financial markets and greased the skids for the stock market's rally.
Yet, stocks scored a 3 percent gain for the week as fears about European sovereign debt eased and the market took the surprise Fed discount rate hike in stride. Many economists do not expect the Fed to raise its target Funds rate until later this year or even next year. They do, however, expect the Fed to take moves to reduce its balance sheet and sell assets.
"I think we had seen a (stock market) correction because it's the end of the Fed's easing. It's not so much about Greece," said Richard Bernstein of Richard Bernstein Capital Management.
"The question is: 'Are the fundamentals strong enough to offset the presence of rising rates?'" he said. "...My guess is corporate profit growth is going to explode in the first half of the year."
Bernstein said he does not know whether the sell off that took stocks to a level 8 percent below their January highs is yet over. "I do think what we've seen is a very normal period," he said.
Sam Stovall, chief investment strategist at Standard and Poor's, said stocks typically continue to rise after the Fed returns to a rate hiking cycle. He said the Fed initiated rate tightening programs 13 times since 1946. "The market does better than you would expect," he said.
He looked at the average performance of the S&P 500 in six month increments. "It usually goes up an average of 4 percent but after a rate hike it's 2.6 percent," he said.
In the 12 months after a rate hiking cycle began, the S&P 500 was up 6.2 percent, compared to its average of 8.1 percent.
Stovall notes it is also not the defensive groups that do the best. "Tech is the best performing group in the 12 months after the Fed is starting to hike rates, mainly because they have lower amounts of debt," he said. He also said it may be a point in the economic cycle, where companies are willing to spend on technology to increase productivity and save on other expenditures.
Stocks finished Friday modestly higher after starting on a weak note in reaction to the Fed news. The market was higher for a second week after four weeks of declines. The Dow finished up 3 percent at 10,402, while the S&P rose 3.1 percent to 1109. The dollar gained 0.2 percent against the euro for the week. It also rose 1.8 percent against the yen and 1.4 percent against the British pound.
What to Watch
Fed chairman Ben Bernanke gives his semiannual economic testimony before Senate and House committees Wednesday and Thursday, and the markets will be watching what Bernanke says about what to expect from the Fed after the discount rate hike.
The Fed Thursday increased the discount rate by a quarter point to 0.75 percent. The discount rate is the emergency rate the Fed charges banks and does not have a direct bearing on consumer rates or mortgages. The Fed stressed that the rate hike does not mean it will soon raise its target Fed funds rate and it does not expect tighter financial conditions for households or businesses.
"I take the Fed at its word. This doesn't have policy implications. It's part of the withdraw of emergency steps," said Richard Hoey, chief economist at BNY Mellon.
Hoey said besides the Fed, key economic news for markets in the coming week will be the fresh batch of housing data. "I think we'll probably see some improvement in house prices but not necessarily huge. There is a huge amount of excess inventory in the financial sector, but on the other hand, the builders' inventories are down sharply so it's a mixed picture," Hoey said.
Housing data includes S&P/Case-Shiller home prices on Tuesday; new home sales on Wednesday and existing home sales for January on Friday. Durable goods are reported Thursday, and the second look at fourth quarter GDP is Friday. Both consumer confidence and consumer sentiment are out this week, on Tuesday and Friday, respectively. Weekly jobless claims are reported Thursday, as usual.
"You're dealing with a mixed picture. It's true in housing as it is in the overall economy,:" Hoey said.
Washington will provide plenty of headlines for markets this week. Sen. Christopher Dodd, D-Conn. is expected to introduce a new version of a financial regulatory reform bill, and the Senate is expected to take on the jobs bill Monday.
President Obama, in an effort to jump start stalled health care legislation, holds a health care summit Thursday, to which he has invited Republican members of Congress.
Toyota's CEO Akio Toyoda testifies Tuesday before a House Energy and Commerce Committee hearing on his company's response to pedal problems. The Securities and Exchange Commission considers potential changes tot he short sale rule at a meeting Wednesday.
There is also a cluster of major retail earnings reports, including Lowes and Nordstrom on Monday; Barnes and Noble, Home Depot , Macy's and Target on Tuesday; Chico's and Limited Wednesday, and Gap on Thursday.Rate Watch
Bernstein said one thing investors should watch is the steepness of the yield curve. The yield curve—the spread between yields on the 10-year Treasury note and the 2-year—widened to a historic level this past week. Traders said that record move was a reflection of increasing concern about inflation but also about the huge supply of debt being issued by the government.
"I look at it as an indicator of future nominal growth," said Bernstein. He said as the Fed tightens, he expects the yield curve to flatten out with short end rates rising and long end stabilizing. After the Fed moved the discount rate, the yield curve narrowed immediately, ending Friday at 286 basis points, down from the historic 294 bps of the day before.
George Goncalves, Nomura's head of interest rates in the Americas, said the Treasury's auctions this week follow three less than stellar auctions earlier in the month.
"We're at an interesting point in time with what just happened with the Fed and how auctions have been performing in general. The last couple of auctions didn't so well," he said. "..I think you'll carry over some of that into the auctions next week."
"You have a lot of supply next week and the Fed is taking away some of the easy money on the front end. Risk premiums have to shift back down the curve and that will materialize next week in the auction," he said.
The Treasury auctions $44 billion in 2-year notes Tuesday; $42 billion in 5-year notes Wednesday and $32 billion in 7-year notes Thursday. On Monday, the Treasury auctions $8 billion in 30-year Treasury inflation-protected securities or TIPS, in the first offering of that duration since 2001. "It's a big deal because everyone is looking for inflation protection. It's the longest inflation bond we've had in years," said Goncalves.
Euro Trashed
The dollar was an immediate beneficiary of the Fed's move. The euro ended a sixth week of declines at a level of $1.3595.
"I actually think we're looking at consolidation next week, mainly because we've reached pretty exhaustive levels in the euro and the pound," said Boris Schlossberg of GFT Forex.
"The thing that would drive the dollar significantly higher is much stronger U.S. economic news," he said. Schlossberg said the dollar could still react to risk aversion but it is now trading on growth rate differentials.
"The only bastion of hope for Europe right now is its manufacturing sector," he said. For that reason, German IFO industrial production data Tuesday will be watched closely as will the final revision of German fourth quarter GDP Thursday. If it is strong, that could force a short covering rally in the euro.

I am not trying to sell anyone a die cut machine, but I use mine all the time and have been learning to work with software to take my projects a little farther. I welded a couple circles together to cut my picture to appear like looking through binoculars. To get the machine to cut exactly where I wanted, I first cut a template out of scrap paper, then placed the photo under the template and stuck it to the mat. I could see exactly where the cut would be made. The pattern was removed before cutting. Measuring never works for me, at least not with the precision I was looking for this time. The brown shadow piece used the same template with a couple rectangles added.
The tree and the branch were machine cut then put through a crimper. I did the title backwards from what I usually do. I welded the shadow (brown) and cut it in one piece. The standard letters were cut individually then adhered to the shadow. For a little more texture, I stamped the blue letters with white ink using an acrylic feather stamp.
To get the mottled look of the background paper, I lightly applied swirls of blue distress ink in a vertical motion. To tone that down, the paper was sprayed with water so the color spreads out and blends. The paper was allowed to dry and an iron pressed the paper to uncurl it.
I really love to combine techniques to build a page. It makes me happy to work on a page like this one and I easily lose track of time.

Terrorist rodent broomed out of Aleppo appears suspiciously penitent before being handed over to the PDC and Justice . (Thanks, Khaled)
A Yemeni rodent is flushed out and taken for interrogation in Aleppo. (Thanks, Khaled)
It appears the offensive in Eastern Aleppo has dazzled the Russian high command. The Syrian Army is now engaged in house-to-house fighting with elements of Jaysh Al-Fath, Harakat Nooreddeen Al-Zangi and Nusra/Alqaeda in the areas of Saakhoor and Hanaanu. With the losses the rodents have sustained, Wael tells me that the remaining rodents are ill-equipped both physically and mentally to handle the assault of a trained professional army like Syria's. Let's be very blunt: the Syrian Army is under orders to slay each and every foreigner it can find. Efforts by foreigners to surrender are rejected outright the preference being to hunt him down and kill him. The Liwaa` Al-Quds (mostly Palestinian with commanders from the PFLP-GC) is proving to be the most predatory of all the patriotic groups; their fighters find and execute all foreigners – especially the Saudis who are sometimes skinned alive before burning. The standing orders are to take Syrian citizens prisoner. Those who have not surrendered are kept in detention camps to await interrogation, trial and then, possibly either amnesty or prison, depending on the rodent's record. Those who have committed acts of murder, forced slavery, drug smuggling or organized crime are turned over to the Syrian Army's Special Military Prosecutor.
As of today, the SAAF and RuAF have conducted over 50 sorties over East Aleppo killing a reported 11 rodents.
HAMA: The aftermath of the military disaster facing the Saudi pedophile, Al-Muhaysini at Kawkab.:
(Thanks, Khaled)
Yesterday, as I reported to you, the rodents of Jaysh Al-Fath swallowed a hot anvil called utter defeat at the village of Kawkab. The photos above show the military and its allies sweeping the area of disease-carrying carcasses which will be incinerated.
I can now to announce to you that the town of Ma'aan has been completely liberated by the Syrian Army. Jaysh Al-Fath, unable to keep its officers alive, has taken an even bigger loss here than in Kawkab. I have one report asserting that the SAA and its allies killed over 106 rats in this battle. I also will be receiving photos showing the population dancing in the streets before the triumphant Syrian Army.
Along with Ma'aan, the SAA has completely deloused Kawkab, Al-Kibaariyya, Kiraah and its western farms, and the Railroad Station. All terrorist nests were vaporized with most rodents killed.
The SAAF and RuAF blasted Jaysh Al-Fath fortifications here: Teebat Al-Imaam, Sooraan, Ma'rdas, Mork, Red Hills, Tal Bizaan, North Tal Za'atar, Sukayk, Tal Huwayyir, 'Atshaan, Tal Tar`'aa, Hasraayaa, Al-Lataamina.
Between Al-Qunaytaraat and Khunayfees: Terrorists supported by the Americans moved out of Qunaytaraat with the intent to occupy Khunayfees where the SAA maintained a solid military presence. This area is near Al-Salamiyya. Residents gave information about rat preparations to the SAA-MI who alerted our forces. Once the SAA knew the route to be taken by the rodents, SAA rangers and engineers planted 60-70 land mines which are remote-controlled with the use of digital codes. As the convoy of rodents was moving along to its desired destination, the officer in charge of the unit gave the order to detonate and all the rats went straight to Hell. 14 confirmed killed with over 30 wounded.
The Syrian Air Force operated over Point 1154 and Point 1112, Kubaani and Dhahr Kafr Sindu. The result was an air assessment of many vehicles destroyed, mostly pickups with23mm cannons. Also, the SAAF pummeled rodents yesterday at Kam'aayaa, Ba'arbaayaa, Tirdeen, Kubaani and Kafr Sindu Mountain.
The Lemniscat sends proof that the so-called Russian attack on the U.N. aid convoy was a hoax perpetrated by the White Helmets:
