About USLaw.com Blog Directory, Search Engine, and Feed Reader
The USLaw.com Blog Directory, Search Engine, and Feed Reader, like other such directories, search engines, and feed readers maintained by companies like Goole and Yahoo, indexes the publicly available RSS feeds of blogs and like websites.
RSS syndication feeds are intended to widen distribution of content by facilitating access through third party "feed readers" and other means. Syndication drives greater exposure across numerous online platforms such as feed directories and feed readers. This generates new readers for syndicator— making syndication a low cost and easy form of marketing.
It is generally regarded that syndication feeds are intended to enable content discovery and consumption from multiple, third party access points, thus significantly increasing opportunities for web users to find and more conveniently consume reading material. The most popular blog readers are maintained by large commercial enterprises like Google, IAC, Yahoo, etc.
Blog Discovery
By focusing on law-related feeds exclusively, USLaw.com is able to benefit the legal content community in the same way these larger companies benefit the greater web. For example: 1) readers can browse all the new posts generated in a particular category at one time; 2) the one-of-a-kind Blog Tracking Service provides daily alerts about blog posts published on topics of interest to a reader; and 3) the Related Post section enables readers of one blog post to discover another blog that may also be of interest to them.
Readers Finding Bloggers, Bloggers Finding Readers
Unlike several other well maintained law blog directories which are primarily directed at an audience of legal professionals, USLaw.com is especially valuable to those seeking to expand readership among consumers of legal services, non-lawyers with interest in the law, and the general public. The benefits of the Directory are even greater for indepedent law blogs which are self-hosted and/or are otherwise not benefitting from the type of automated blogrolling that is provided by more expensive blawg service companies. New feature enhancements will be added in the near future to make this resource even more valuable to publishers and their audiences.
Limited to Feed Content
The only content indexed by the Directory and accessible in the Feed Reader is content made available in RSS content syndicaiton feeds for that purpose. Some blog publishers choose to configure their RSS feeds so as to include blog posts in their entirety. Others provide post summaries of varying lengths. (We believe the best way for blog publishers to control use of their RSS feeds is to change adjust feed configuration accordingly-- headline only, summary only, full content.) Every blog post contained in the directory contains clear attribution to the feed source and at least one, and often several, clickable linkback to the RSS feed's source. It is quite common for readers to click-through to the feed source to participate in comment threads and learn more about a publisher.
Best Law Blogs
The Directory strives to make a diversity of legal subject matter and points of view more widely accessible. And serves to expand audiences for bar associations, journalists, historians, marketers, law professors, law students, paralegals, and many others who blog about the law. Material spans academic treatment of the Supreme Court, to professional advice for solo practitioners, to libertarian views about bad police conduct, to radical theories about President Obama's Constitutional eligibility, to life in law school, to every day legal matters like divorce, immigration, estate planning, and staying out of jail.
Should you like to track a particular feed and/or nominate your own blog for inclusion, please tell us about it (please be aware there is currently a backlog of blogs requesting inclusion). You may also contact us with any questions, concerns, or requests to change participation levels.

Willy's Stories (2015)
First sentence: Every week I walk through these doors and something incredible happens. I go on amazing adventures. Come with me and I'll show you...
Premise/plot: Willy loves to read. Willy loves going to the library and finding new books and new adventures. Actually, many of the books he reads are not exactly "new." This picture book celebrates classic adventure stories. How many do you recognize?
My thoughts: I like this one very much. I love the idea behind it. I think this is a great picture book for older readers. Not so much for younger readers. Each two-page spread celebrates a book, usually an adventure novel or a fantasy. One page is fully illustrated. The other is text-heavy. (It's not bad for a picture book to be text-heavy, especially in this case, but it does make it more appropriate for older readers, mid-to-upper elementary at least.) I think my favorite part was how each page asks a question of readers inviting them to join in the conversation. Readers might be inspired to write about their own favorite books and stories. And if they are at all creative or artistic, they might try drawing scenes from their favorite books.

Are dogs allowed in Portland parks?
Yes, dogs are welcome visitors to most Portland parks, trails, and natural areas! When visiting parks with pets, remember:
- Dogs must always be on leash when not in a designated off-leash area
- No dogs, on or off-leash, are allowed at Tanner Springs Park, Whitaker Ponds Nature Park, Foster Floodplain Natural Area, or the amphitheater at Mt Tabor Park
- Law also requires that pet waste must be picked up and disposed of in a trash can
- Being in an off-leash area does not exempt owners or handlers from obeying scoop laws
- Scoop bags are not supplied, so bring bags with you
- Violation of leash or scoop laws will result in a fine of up to $150, so do follow the rules

Necessary Tax Documents for Reporting Rental Property Income
As a law abiding property owner, to completely record and report your annual rental property income to the Internal Revenue Service, you will need different Internal Revenue Service tax documents which will be discussed within this brief article. As laid out in this article, the tax documents considered necessary change depending on the particular official business who is the owner of the rental property (individual, partnership, corporation, or LLC). For further information on legal entity rental property ownership, look at the article in this Guide, titled Best Rental Property Ownership.
TIP: Quick note – You can locate the forms described in the following paragraphs on the Internal Revenue Service's homepage: http://www.irs.gov/Forms-&-Pubs. Each of the necessary documents should be included in any tax preparing computer software, if you use one of them.
Individual Ownership
Which includes joint ownership with a wife or husband, tenancy in common, or shared tenancy with legal rights of survivorship.
Form 1040. All individual people have to file Form 1040, so this is the place you need to get started. Your own net rental property revenue or financial loss subject to taxation will appear on line 17 from the first page in Form 1040. You aren't able to take advantage of the easy Forms 1040A or 1040-EZ, as a property manager with rental activity.
Schedule E. The addendum to Form 1040 you have to know about is Schedule E. It actually has various uses, however the usage that is meant for you is reporting of leasing profit and expenses. The only element of Schedule E that you have to complete is the segment titled "Part I". Different essential tips to be aware of: when reporting on a rental you jointly own with a person, who is not your significant other, you just need to report the costs which you sustained and also the profits which you earned. Don't forget, furthermore, that you will have to keep track of your expenses regarding rental and non-rental use if you're renting a segment of your own personal residence, or whenever you only leased for part of the entire year. Look at the series of articles called Tax Deductible Rental Property Expenses, contained in this Guide, for more tips.
Form 4562. At line 18 of Schedule E, you are able to deduct the depreciation on the property, which you will use Form 4562 to figure out. For more details, look at the article called, Depreciation Expenses for Rental Property, which is in this Guide.
Partnership/Corporate Ownership
Such as a general or limited partnership, or S corporation.
Form 1065/1120-S. The tax form a collaboration utilizes to report all of its enterprise operations is Form 1065, which you will need to fill out if you have a joint venture. An S corporation uses Form 1120-S to report its business activities. Your total leasing revenue or deficit should be reported on Schedule K, line 2 of Form 1065 or 1120-S (Schedule K is embedded in those forms).
Form 8825. This tax form functions like Schedule E, except that it's for partnerships and S corporations. Schedule E and Form 8852 are basically similar. Make sure you include whole sums of all profits and operating costs accrued by the partnership or corporation (In the future, they are allocated to each shareholder or business partner).
Schedule K-1. This tax form reports the total leasing income or loss due to each partner or shareholder in line with that business partner or investor's rental property ownership interest. Each partner receives their own personal K-1 and must report the details of their K-1 on their own Form 1040, Schedule E, Part II.
Limited Liability Company (LLC) Ownership
A single owner LLC is actually a disregarded entity for taxation requirements, which means you can file just like you're an individual rental property owner (see above). A multiple-member LLC has the option to be taxed as a partnership or as an S corporation (see above).
Seattle Accountant+John Huddleston has written extensively on tax related subjects of interest to small business owners. He is a graduate of Washington State University and the University of Washington School of Law.

Breakfasts and Lunches
The School District did apply and receive permission to utilize the Community Eligibility Provision to provide every student with a free breakfast and lunch. Recognizing the importance of a student 's performance and health being based on proper nutrition, this was an important step for us as a school community. A la carte items, or individual items or extras, will still still be available to students at a cost. At the elementary school the student will need to have money in their lunch account to purchase those extra items. At the Junior/Senior High School students will need to pay in advance for their extra items either with funds in their account or cash. All a la carte purchases must be paid for at time of purchase.
School Safety
To share some ongoing items and changes for the upcoming school year. We have established a five year agreement for a School Resource Officer with Lawrence Township. Officer Marshall will be a presence at both schools throughout the years. In addition the new school year will see some visible changes, such as landscaping changes to eliminate visual barriers, changes in visitor parking and access to the schools, and a number of items that we continue to revise and review within our procedures to continue to keep student and staff safety a priority and focus within our schools.

a story by Apryl Lowe
Lord Lucian lived in a beautiful manor house in the countryside. His coffers were filled with gold and silver, silks and spices, and the finest jewels in the land. The rooms of the house were filled with art, beautifully crafted furniture, Persian carpets, silken walls, ancient artefacts and heavy leather bound books.
In the gallery hung a series of portraits men and women, the men were all darkly handsome and beside each man, a woman with sad eyes dressed in rubies and silver.
A young servant fell in love with his master's bride to be. He wooed her with roses, and peppermint creams. He asked her to run away with him and she agreed.
He crept into his master's chamber and stole a necklace of black metal and glittering diamonds.
The young man wrapped the necklace of diamonds around her slender neck. Together the young lovers ran through the twists and turns of the great house. They ran and ran but each turn brought them back to the same hall, the same carved door at the end of the house, the master's bedroom.
The door opened on silent hinges and as it did so the servant's bride collapsed to the floor fingers digging at her pale neck, colour fading from her cheeks, terror shined in her eyes.
The diamonds around her neck bit deep, a thousand glittering teeth biting into pale flesh. Drops of crimson blood dripped down her neck as the necklace cut deeper, the diamonds colouring the pale pink of new dawn. Her lover pulled at the necklace, rough fingers tearing at the delicate necklace. He watched with silent horror as the life bled out of his love.
The diamonds turned to blood rubies. He held his bride's cold body crying silent tears. Lord Lucian stepped from the shadows, silver and black cane glinting in the muted light before it crashed down onto the servant's head. Lucian laughed as he tore the glistening ruby necklace from the bride's throat.
As the servant lay in a growing pool of blood, his fingers grasping at his bride's cold fingers. Lord Lucian opened the door at the end of the hall. The room behind was bathed in light, in a chair sat a woman in a white silken gown, her long golden hair piled atop her head, pale skin, sunken eyes that stared lifelessly at the servant. The corpse bride's paper dry lips were peeled back in a pearly white smile.
Lucian stepped behind his bride and wrapped the gleaming ruby strand around her lifeless neck. A whispering noise filled the room, a sound of dry leaves and death, the sound of the corpse bride laughing. And as the corpse laughed the blood drained from the stones, until once more diamonds shone and the corpse flesh filled out, golden hair shining in the candle light, black eyes shining, skin a delicate cream, cheeks a delicate rose. Lord Lucian kissed his beautiful laughing bride as the light faded from the servant's eyes.

Peter Moser, wine writer and editor of Falstaff Magazine (http://www.falstaff.at/), one of Austria's most widely-read magazines, recently visited Croatia to attend the 2010 Zagreb Wine Gourmet Festival, where he tasted some of Croatia's finest wines from both the continental and coastal regions.
For posterity, I have compiled his tasting notes, recently published on Twitter (http://twitter.com/Falstaffmoser), and translated them from the German with the help of Google Translation and the Pons Deutsch-English dictionary.
Without further adieu, here's Peter Moser:
"The trip to the Festival was more than worth it. Extremely well-organized. Will visit next year. Recommended.

Loved it. Removed a lot of water.
For me personally, it was difficult to use because I have a paralyzed hand and found it hard to hook the hoop around the button with one hand. Plus my hair is really thin and long and it doesn't catch all the hair.
I am sorry to hear that you are not completely satisfied with our product. Please email us at email@example.com and we will be more than happy to assist you
I like it

As Ben mentioned in a previous post, he took a year off after graduating from college before going to grad school. I did the same thing, and I'm sure that many of you recent grads out there are wondering whether or not you should too. Now that I'm nearing the end of my year off, I think it was the right move for me. Here are the four reasons I think that taking a year off before grad school was beneficial
1. Rest
Even during my sophomore year of college, I was beginning to feel burned out on school. After 16 straight years of nothing but eating, sleeping, and studying, I was pretty tired. It didn't help that I went to a competitive college, where you had to be on your toes all the time or risk falling behind. Taking this year off to recuperate and rediscover that learning is about improving oneself (and not about getting the best grades or class rank) has really helped me psych myself up for the upcoming two years. It's easy to lose sight of why we go to school when all anyone can talk about is the next test or how to increase their GPA or how to strategically plan out your schedule to get the easiest teachers.
2. Experience
Even though this was technically a "year off," I still decided to get a job. As Ben mentioned, this can be a great time to get some experience working on research in whatever field you hope to enter. Working at Testmasters has been a good experience for me as well, because I can put on my resume that I have a year's worth of teaching and tutoring experience, which looks great for students who are hoping to finance their graduate school educations through teaching assistantships.
3. Money
It makes the world go round. Having a little bit of money saved is always a good thing, especially if you're about to plunge yourself into debt with grad school. You never know what sort of circumstances might pop up, so having a little safety net, no matter how small, is a good idea.
4. Time
Things get hectic during school. Classes, tests, projects, grades, friends — there are lots of things screaming for your attention. And on top of all that is the ever-present pressure to figure out what the next steps in your life will be. Sometimes all you need is a little time to figure it all out. In the few months after I graduated, as I began writing essays and applying to grad schools, I really began to realize that it was in fact, the right decision for me. There was no way I could have taken the time to think about what I wanted and what I needed while I was still in school, trying to keep myself afloat among a sea of other students, all of whom seemed to know exactly what they were doing. For me, this past year has made me confident that I've thought out my plan carefully and that I've made the right decision — and that peace of mind is what lets me approach the upcoming two years with confidence and determination.
If you want to take a year off before going to grad school, more power to you! Just remember — it's supposed to be a year off, not a year wasted.

The Fire Breather was a huge leviathan with tough hide and natural chemicals that was manipulated by the Yuuzhan Vong for use as a heavy support organism.
Characteristics[edit | edit source]
These deadly war beasts had flexible proboscises that spewed streams of gelatinous flame, pores that exhaled anti-laser aerosols, and hides thick enough to withstand all but a blast from a turbolaser.
The liquid flame was created through a unique chemical reaction caused by the mixture of methane, hydrogen sulfide, and a mysterious substance deep within the guts of the Fire Breather. The beasts were often deployed for clearing out entrenched enemy positions.
A smaller anti-personnel version also existed.
History[edit | edit source]
Fire Breathers were first encountered on Gyndine where they burned the forests and caused the lakes to boil. According to most reports, the Fire Breathers acquired swamp gas from the planet Mimban in the Circarpous system, prior to invading Gyndine. Fire Breathers also appeared with an invasion on Artorias.[1]
Later in the war, the Fire Breathers were fought off by a platoon of B2 super battle droids known as the Orange Panthacs in the Battle of Mantessa.

I just saw Avengers: Age of Ultron (View the Trailer HERE.) for a second time! When watching this film, as multiplied millions have, one can't help but notice the effective teamwork. The reason the Avengers exist is to "fight the foes no single super hero can withstand."
As a comic book geek I know that an ever-changing team roster becomes a theme in the comic book Avengers but teamwork was always emphasized. This comes through in Age of Ultron and is an important lesson for us.
Don't click away! You don't have to like comic books or even Marvel movies to read this blog. This film contained some important lessons about effective teamwork. Here are a few:
1. Effective Teams: Meld Together Diverse Personalities.
The team is made up of wildly different individuals: a billionaire arms manufacturer, Iron Man (Robert Downey Jr.); a fabled Norse god, Thor (Chris Hemsworth); a raging monster/mad scientist (a modern-day Dr. Jekyll & Mr. Hyde) The Hulk (Mark Ruffalo); a WWII war hero, Captain America (Chris Evans), a cold-war, Russian spy, Black Widow (Scarlett Johansson); and expert marksman who was a former thief, Hawkeye (Jeremy Renner). They are under the authority of a mysterious leader Nick Fury (Samuel L Jackson) who is the director of a government covert ops organization. Wow, how could they ever get along?
Any team needs people with diverse personalities and skill sets. The key to being an effective team, is melding those individuals into a unit whose skills compliment each other.
In order to do this, creating a team identity is paramount. When a sports team for example shouts "Wildcats!" as they break their pre game huddle, they're reminding themselves that they win or lose as a team. The effective team player may pass on personal glory or accomplishment for the better of the team. Any effective team must learn that we win or lose as a team. A great player knows it doesn't matter if I get my points if we lose the game. An effective team member realizes it isn't just about me doing my job but about all of us pulling to accomplish our team goals. As the old cliché says, "There's no I in team."
Leaders cast vision for the team and create situations where we win together. [Leader read Servant Leadership to learn more.]
2. Have a Clear Chain of Command
Tony Stark (Iron Man) at one point says, "I just pay for everything and design everything, make everyone look cooler." A shield agent had called Tony 'boss'. Tony points to Captain America saying "He's the Boss." While there is resentment in his voice there is something more important for effective teamwork, CLARITY.
There is no doubt about who has final decision. I believe in the synergy or group input and discussion but in the heat of battle, someone has to make the final call. Have a clear team leader and give then the authority to make decisions.
Side note: That leader must have humility as a dominant character trait or the team will become discouraged. A good leader shares the credit for success and motivates their team to work harder.
3. Give the Team the Information They Need to Succeed
Tony Stark (Iron Man) is trying to create an artificial intelligence that will protect the world from alien attacks. He accidentally creates Ultron who decides after some brief contemplation, that the Avengers (and humanity) are the problem with the earth. "I know you're good people. I know you mean well. But you just didn't think it through. There is only one path to peace… your extinction." Ultron becomes the Avengers greatest foe.
(Geek note: In the comics Henry Pym aka, Ant Man creates Ultron.)
Here's where it all went wrong. Tony Stark decides to work on the 'Ultron project' with Dr Bruce Banner but decides not to tell the rest of the team. He didn't want to hear their objections to this dangerous project.
An effective team communicates with each other to avoid their projects and activities hindering or harming the other team members! Over communicate.
4. Take Time to Celebrate the Cool Things and Have Fun
As Tony Stark is searching the Hydra base (a terrorist organization) he mutters, "Please be a secret door. Please be a secret door." and yells, "YES!" when the wall moves and he discovers one. This billionaire inventor gets excited about a secret passage hidden in an old stone wall.
We begin every meeting with "What went well this week." We take time to celebrate the good things, the fun stories, the lives being impacted and the successful executions. Celebrating team success is an important key to being an effective team for the long-term.
I sincerely hope 4 fun facts about being an effective team taken from the Avengers: Age of Ultron will help your team become a super team!

Rumors; Samsung Galaxy Mega On Specs Include 1.5GHz Snapdragon 412 Processor, 1 GB RAM, and 5.5″ Display
A leaked benchmark test on what looks to be the Samsung Galaxy Mega On shows us one of two handsets that are believed to be the start of a new line of smartphones. The surprise leaks on the new Samsung Phablet gives us a pretty good idea of things to come, which are proving to be much of what we expected and some of what we didn't expect.
The benchmark shows us some of the Samsung Galaxy Mega On specs which include a Qualcomm 410 processor. The processor was clocked at 1.5GHz which is pretty consistent with early rumors, but the 1GB RAM is less than was originally thought. Early reports suggests Samsung's newest Phablet would feature at least 2GB RAM which makes it a mid-range handset at best.
Other specs include a 5.5" touchscreen display with a resolution of 720 x 1280, 8GB of dedicated memory, expandable memory, 13 MP rear camera, and a 5 MP front-facing camera. The battery will be a 3000 mAh battery which will be good enough to give users plenty of talk, text, and stand-by time.
The latest version of Lollipop will be pre-installed which will be Android 5.1 and will be upgradeable to Android 6.0 Marshmallow early next year.
As of now, there's been no official announcement from Sammy on the release date and price, but we're hearing it will be launching in markets in Asia including Korea later this month. It's also believed the India Samsung Galaxy Mega On release date will be sometime in October and believed to be comparable in price with other mid-range handsets.

Today, Punch has taken a £367m write-down on the value of the 2,400 pubs it has earmarked for sale over the next five years.
The company also said it is making "good progress" on splitting off its managed pub business into a separate listed company.
But how did Punch end up having to dismantle the empire it built up after being spun out of Bass in 1997?
Ian Dyson, the former Marks & Spencer finance director who took over as chief executive of Punch in September last year, spent six months reviewing the company and came up with the conclusion the business was "not sustainable" and in need of "structural change" .
Certainly the numbers would seem to back him up - Punch's shares are now trading at around 75p, better than the 31p they fell to January 2009, but not a patch on the £13 they hit in the bull market of 2007.
The company still has £3.08bn of net debt, well down on the £4.5bn it had at the start of the credit crunch, but dwarfing Punch's market cap of around £484m.
In its leased pubs division, which is effectively a landlord, taking in rent and a share of the profits from tenants, net income fell 7pc in the six months to March 5. Nevertheless, that was an improvement on the 10pc-plus declines of the previous two years.
The acquisition of the Spirit group of managed pubs in 2005 also gave Punch two different kinds of businesses to run.
Mr Dyson identified that, and wants to split Spirit off so it can be run as a pure retail operation, with brands and economies of scale.
That leaves the leased business, which carries £2.5bn of Punch's total debt, where the CEO plans to get rid of the worst performing pubs over the next five years, leaving the division about 40pc smaller at 3,000 sites.
Bondholders have objected to this, saying it leaves them too exposed to the weak leased division, but Mr Dyson has said he is confident bondholders will "eventually get their money back".
Punch's problems come down to two basic issues - one of its own making and the other beyond its control - which are intrinsically linked.
The first is its level of debt, which was built up over years of acquisitions when credit was cheap, under previous chief executive Giles Thorley.
Mr Thorley pushed the expansion of Punch at a feverish pace on the back of the innovative but not risk-free securitisation model, which meant securing large amounts of debt against the company's property assets and using the proceeds to buy more pubs.
The second issue is the fact that beer sales are in terminal decline and pub closures are on the rise, as duty increases, the smoking ban and cheap beer deals in supermarkets have all conspired to keep people out of the pub.
Punch's shares started to go out of fashion when the credit crunch bit in late 2007, making investors wary of companies holding large amounts of debt which would need refinancing. When the recession hit in earnest, the value of the shares was almost enitrely wiped out, as markets feared the drop in consumer spending would leave Punch with a pile of debts it could not service, because its pubs would have no customers.
It never came to that, and Punch has made all the self-help moves it can - a £350m share placing in 2009, selling hundreds of pubs, and easing terms for its licensees.
But with Punch's shares falling again today on news of the write-down and the first-half loss, it seems Mr Dyson has not brought Punch out of the woods yet.

Ford and Fynn strip down to beat the heat on a bright day, and it isn't long before they try out each other's cocks.
Ford and Fynn are two of the Fratmen who rarely hang out in Cyberspace for more than a day or two, but when they do, it's a hot escape to experiment with another hot guy. Ford has had a few experiences with the guys from the Pad, while Fynn is still a bit new to all of this. Once they're together and completely by themselves, Fynn and Ford find a cool shady spot to strip down and start touching each other's naked bodies. These athletic jocks spread out on the couch to give back massages before going in for blowjobs. Ford and Fynn are lost in their own world as they take turns sucking on each other's dicks. It isn't long before both of these Fratmen are completely hard and ready to cum.

To celebrate this rare confession of bourgeois decadence, I decided to post both Katastrophobia 7"s at the same time (you might remember them from Buck's podcasts a while back) & back-to-back with Billy's post below - Kattengat's Stef used to play in the band, you see. (He also played in Counter-Attack; you can get their second LP at Nabate's blog here.) This post was scheduled (as far as anything is scheduled in this blog) for 10 days ago, but then again the scanwork took literally for ever - you'll realize what I'm talking about once you check it out yourselves. (The fact that I had to decipher track names by matching the lyrics on the lyric sheet to growls didn't help either.) This is some of the most beautiful (albeit skull-infested; HeartFirst would have a fit, eh Billy?) crust artwork I've laid my eyes on for ages, possibly putting even the 'Deadly Sins' boxset to shame! & this is important - not on account of making decadent vinyl junkies happy, but on account of being proof that the band appreciated their work & its message well enough to package it as beautifully as they did. (For the taqwacores out there - lame joke that this is, I must say that this is NOT a danish flag; the second 7" opens up to form a cross, & I just needed to fill the surrounding space with something neutral - red came first with paisley a close second.)
As far as the music is concerned, this is pretty vicious crust. The first 7" is not entirely my cup of tea, as it lacks something in originality & direction (I suspect that brutality might do the trick for some of you, though) & is pretty fast - bordering on chaotic - as well (I prefer dirges), but definitely worth a few listens. The second 7" is far better by any count - fast but more well-developed & with a brutality that is not easily matched. My favorite parts, of course, are the instances in which the band reveals more than a passing resemblance to My Name Is Satan (which band had not even formed at the time that Katastrophobia released their first 7") - in the second 7", in particular, this happens pretty frequently. Regarding the band's bio, I don't have as much information as I'd like to have, but one can infer that they formed in the mid-'90s in Gent, Belgium, put out these two 7"s & the LP 'Age Of Aquarius' (which you can get it in digital format here & is also still available in certain distros), toured the european squat network extensively, played with Scatha in 2001, & disbanded soon (?) after.
I'll end this by saying that those of you who speak flemish might benefit from this interview with Stef, in which he talks about a lot of things - among them his coming of age & leaving punk behind (musically). Maybe I should grow up & do the same some time soon. Meanwhile, I'll be taking a little break from posting, as I've wasted a day on this & I start to get tired of wasting my weekends on ripping stuff - sorry...
Update: Curious Guy was kind enough to upload a Katastrophobia live from 2001 (Duisburg, DE) for us all - you can still get it here!

Lewis Hamilton swerved a conviction but not a $500 fine after a court hearing in Melbourne on Tuesday.
Lewis Hamilton swerved a conviction but not a $500 fine after a court hearing in Melbourne on Tuesday.
The 2008 world champion, who did not travel to Australia for the hearing, was arrested, charged and summonsed for driving dangerously near the Albert Park circuit during March's grand prix weekend.
He was represented by a lawyer in Melbourne Magistrates' Court on Tuesday, who pleaded guilty on the 25-year-old Briton's behalf.
Lawyer Sandip Mukerjea said the McLaren driver, who addressed two letters to the court, suffered "embarrassment, humiliation and distress" over the incident due to the widespread media coverage.
In one of the letters, Hamilton said the incident was due to a "momentary lapse of judgement" that had caused "immense" publicity that was a "form of punishment".
He also insisted that he was "in control of the car at all times".
His lawyer asked that a conviction not be recorded because it may impede Hamilton's ability to travel internationally.
The FIA also provided the court with a character reference.
The magistrate said Hamilton escaped conviction because it was his first offense, but "this is about somebody in a responsible position behaving like a hoon".
"It doesn't show the general application of the level of responsibility and maturity that he must use every day on the race track," added magistrate Clive Alsop.

Transform Your Relationships By Shelly Dressel
We as humanity are moving through the ascension process. For years we have spoken about Ascension Symptoms and all the varies experiences that people are having; for example digestive or respiratory upset, heart palpitations and emotional swings. Now since 2016 we have moved into transforming our physical bodies. This is the tissue's, the DNA in the blood, the bones and all aspects our physical self. The reason for this is that the crystalline energies are becoming a part of everything and it therefore is transforming the carbonite body into the crystalline.
During this channel, as a means of opening up to the crystalline vibration, the Goddess worked with us to transform our relationships. This was an opportunity through Soul Communication to hear from the other person what they thought but also to express yourself about a situation. This is a very powerful means of communication! The Goddess started with clearing issues with those who have crossed over. From there we cleared with friend's and families. I found as I watched people that many brought groups in to clear.
Once we cleared the communication, we were able to receive a huge flow of crystalline energies. In the end, relationships were cleared from current day and even back through past life experiences.
This will assist you with clearing the past and move forward~~~
Nama sika; venia benya I AM the one, I AM the whole
I greet you beloved family. I reach out from my heart to yours. I reach out to embrace you, you the person that you are in this lifetime; you person you are as a culmination of the many, many lifetimes you've had both upon the earth and out within the universe.
There is a deep transformation that's been moving through the consciousness of humanity to allow a higher vibration to come in.
During this time there is the opening of the heart. You will see reactions to this in Gaia. As the heart of Gaia opens up people become aware of earth; how to nurture the earth, how to support the earth. As the heart center opens up you feel it within humanity, for other humanity, for animals, for the earth.
As I speak of this I of course hear those that are saying that there's always the violence that is taking place. I wish to remind you that when there is violence upon the earth, remember it is a reflection of that that is clearing out, that is being removed, that is ascending beyond.
Remember that you have a perfect opportunity in which to transform the vibration of any situation by tapping into the higher potential of what that outcome can be. For those of you who are involved in the midst of some of the violence, know that you are not alone, that you are fully supported and that we both within the universe and those upon the earth are there in support and love for you.
The transformation taking place has shifted from the majority in the third dimension to the majority in the fourth and fifth dimension. The fifth dimension is completely within the heart center. Many of you are able to move into that space and stay there for periods of time and then you might feel yourself pulling back once again.
Recognize that you feel better when you vibrate in alignment with the fifth dimension or the high fourth and therefore allow your focus to be upon whatever it is that feels good to you and that will shift you into the space that you seek to have.
Take a deep breath in, breathing once more all the way through your energy bodies and all the way down into the earth. As you breathe into the earth allow your focus to shift so that you may move into that which anchors you on to the earth. The deeper you're anchored the greater your potential to transform into the higher vibrations.
Allow your consciousness to move upward. You let it move from your physical body. It just naturally transitions into the space of your higher self.
As you align within your higher self you have the ability to look around and in this lighter finer vibration, you may see your life differently. Sometimes you have things that you are working with and if they clutter the space ~whew~ clear it out so that your higher self works with you all the time.
You allow your focus and your consciousness to move even further. It streams upward until it links within the space of your divinity. Open up so that you may feel your divinity in this now moment. Open up, you may see it as a silhouette of a human; you may sense simply the pure energy that is you.
Howsoever you perceive this space understand that it is always you as your source, you as the reflection of God, you as the multidimensional person that you are.
I the Goddess, walk in and amongst each one of you. I reach out to embrace you in this now moment and as our energies merge we transition into the space of the All That Is.
Look around at what this is. There is so much that happens within this space that you may sometimes have perceptions of other times in which we get together here. Trust or understand that this is where you come whenever you seek to create your life upon the earth. Frequently people will be in a space either like this one or a different vibration. That is a place where they transition through their unconscious awareness as their I AM Presence or their God source; they may flow in and out of the All That Is as they seek these energies.
I invite you to create a space in which you invite to join you, people, perhaps we will begin with those who have transitioned. So if there is anyone who has transitioned that you feel you have unfinished business, invite them to come and be in this space with you at this time. We reach out and ask them permission through their soul or their divine essence to align with us and work with us.
One of the reasons I wish to have this experience is that as you do continue this deep intense transformation, relationships from the past may continuously come around again and again keeping you in a cycle that no longer works for you.
Okay, so let us do this, as if you have a semicircle or a circle if you so choose you can invite anyone that is still living upon the earth or has transitioned that you feel unresolved business, and perhaps it's between them in addition to you and this is why I saw some of you were creating groups rather than one on one conversation.
As you create this meeting with them, start with taking stock within yourself, what would you like to say to them, that you perhaps have not have an opportunity to say in the past?
Within this space you may consciously convey what you seek to say, however there is a lot more of the subtle energies that are also at work within this space. Therefore ask to know either conscious or unconscious anything that you need to say to them and then allow them to respond back to you.
Frequently people will get caught up in a pattern and they don't hear what the other has to say. So let's clear it out ~ whew~ and come back again into this space, where you can once more have a conversation take place.
If you are complete with those individuals then you can have a sense of releasing them and this time as you release them as if through your thoughts, your beliefs and your emotions also go inside of you; if there are any hooks, any old imprints, let that come up also; just bring it up, bring it up, bring it up ~whew~ and clear it out so that as you release this individual, it releases both of you. They are no longer hooked in to you and you are no longer hooked into them.
I can see in many of you, your energies transition as you take in more light vibration. Let us do this again. You clear out those who you were talking with, now let's do it again. Is there anybody either alive or transitioned that you feel is either holding you back or your relationship to them is holding you back? Some of these relationships you may choose never to let go, perhaps a family member; however you need not stay in that energy alignment that holds you back. You can still be family members without that hold or the jabs.
As you invite in this next group of people or individual, speak from your heart not from your mind whatever it is you wish to say to them.
Sometimes it will surprise you what comes through. I invite you to receive with an open heart, whatever message they will be giving to you.
If it's something that supports you then you can take it in. If its information that is necessary for you to have and yet it's not supported then you can acknowledge it and immediately let it go.
Within the vibration of the All That Is, you are connecting at that high level of consciousness. Allow that to work for you. Allow that to help you.
Feel what that is.
You may do this as many times as you choose. When you feel ready to do so, I now invite you to look at yourself. Look at yourself five years ago, 20 years ago, 50 years ago. See the person that you were, understand how it's created the person that you are in this now moment. That you may respect and honor and love yourself for what that is.
If there is a time in your life that you need to forgive or release or clear this is an opportunity to do it. Just feel the unconditional love and support that flows within you from your divinity and then ~whew~ clear out anything at all that you are over with, that you are done with.
As you clear these energies of this lifetime feel how you then Empower yourself through the love, the compassion and the acceptance of this now moment. It's almost as if it's a wave that moves through you want all the levels of your consciousness, manifesting through all the levels of your being.
You may see those parts of yourself either transition completely apart or they form that which is a stronger you.
Let us look at your past lives, as if you open the doorway through your divinity and ask to know, "is there another lifetime that is holding you back in this now moment". It may be that things immediately come to mind, it may be as if it's just an empty space, all is well. If there is anything at all, conscious or unconscious, from your past lives that continues to hold you back or have an impact upon you now bring up whatever that may be ~whew~ and clear it out.
As you do so, you might see waves of transition moving through your divinity as you look at it as if through that door. You may do that several times, you may do it the once.
I then invite you to you to allow your focus to come back into the now moment here within the All That Is. For some of you let's just clear it out, as if there is a wave of energy ~whew~ send it through. And then again as it goes ~whew~
Here is the opportunity for you to say:
"I choose life",
"I choose love",
"I choose balance",
"I choose to be open to my divinity allowing it to fully support me in everything that I do."
As I say this I see the energies just wash over each one of you. This is the unconditional love this is the unconditional love and acceptance. This is seeing you and accepting you no matter what.
And you open up the doorway to the new Omniverse take a moment as you find this new balance, and as you allow the energy to just wash over you, feel the crystalline vibration of the Lightbody move through each one of you.
There is the Lightbody that you are aware of in the earth plane existence. The crystalline Lightbody is specific to the high vibrational elements. It has a crystalline foundation, which allows you to move more freely through the dimensions and into higher light experiences.
Feel the love, know that this is you. Accept all of what it is. All of what this is. As you look around you may feel, like this iridescent, sparkling vibration or energy. People sense it differently. When you ask to be in the alignment or to receive this vibration it is there for you.
Take a deep breath in and let it wash through you, let it wash through all the levels of your consciousness. Let it move through you from your thoughts, your beliefs, your emotions specifically through your physical reality, changing cell, to cell, to cell as your organs change, as your bones change, as your skin changes. You are moving into that higher vibration.
I invite everyone to gather together as a group. Isn't it interesting how all of you can be out here in the all that is and it is as if you are completely alone working with your Angels, your guides and yet when I ask you to come together as a group you suddenly recognize that all there are other people around you. That is part of the uniqueness of the All That Is.
As everyone gathers we look for that hologram of the earth, it begins to rise within this group. As it does so, have a sense of opening to see exactly how even the hologram itself has changed over the years. Look at how this higher infusion of the crystalline vibration changes even the hologram. It illuminates the pathways; it strengthens all that is within.
As it becomes infused, it's as if everyone lets it go. It's as if it moves down from the space of the All That Is it moves down, there is a pathway that moves out into the Omniverse and the other pathway moves down into the earth. As this hologram is moving through the layers of the earth, it clears the collective consciousness moving down into the center of the earth. As it does so, it blends with the crystals, the rocks, the magma, and then it expands outward.
That space in which you merged with the earth allows for your own piece of that hologram to come up within you. The remainder that comes up through the grass, the trees, the water, clearing out that which is of the collective consciousness, but also just clearing out the old energy, the old relationships the old ways in which people engaged in relationships clear it out ~whew~ It then allows for the integration of more and more of that crystalline vibration.
Let your focus begin to stream back down into you in your human reality from the all that is, you flow through your divinity once more. Take a moment and realize how you may be much more conscious of what is present within your divinity because not only did you clear past lives, you have also opened up your flow of movement & your divine energy.
The greater your alignment with your divinity the more support you have in your everyday reality. This in turn, strengthens you, helps to balance you, and helps you to have that heart centered life that you are seeking.
You then bring all of your focus in all of your consciousness back into this now moment. As you begin to become conscious once more take a moment and allow yourself to reach out to some of those relationships that you clear it out in the All That Is. As you reach out to them, in your fully conscious space right here, recognize that the work is done, that you can let that old energy go ~whew~ and if for some reason there is a part of you that wants to bring it back, then let that come up within you; love, nurture and ask why. Why do we want to go back into that old ideal? Why do we want to go back? Is it just a pattern that we are used to? If so ~whew~ clear it out.
Sometimes you might feel vulnerable as you step into a new pathway. Again, feel the love, feel the support of your divine or your divinity so that as you go on this new pathway you can do so with confidence.
Breathe in the love the balance of your divinity, breathe out here. Breathe in crystalline vibration, breathe out resistance. Breathe it. Breathe in a wide open alignment to your divinity, breathe out anything that may hold you back.
You are amazing! You can accomplish anything that you seek to do I know it! I see that for you and I support you as do your Angels and your guides. As long as you need us to, until you feel comfortable taking those steps and embracing the potential for who you are.
Beloved family, as you move through your days upon the earth especially during this time of integration of the crystalline light and vibration, be gentle with yourself, be loving with yourself, be compassionate; recognizing that physically these transitions are just that transitions and transformations.
Allow the flow of divine crystalline energy & light to continually move through you and in you with your every breath, and let it flow and become embodied in your bones, your bloodstream, your organs, your thoughts, your beliefs, your emotions, and your whole being. As we consciously integrate this crystalline vibration recognize that your light is also transforming and your vibrations and light quotient are increasing.
Open to the love, open to the flow, and open to the balance!
Video: "Judy Satori's Alchemy Transmission" - https://youtu.be/5WM7z7QOR7Q
Beloved masters, for a moment, imagine that you are fully aware of your origins and that you can tap into your personal cosmic history files any time you wish. Imagine that you have the ability to communicate with those around you without words, mind to mind. Imagine that you have the natural ability to see everyone's auric field, and therefore, you can read or understand a person's state of Being at any given moment. Imagine that you can envision clearly that which you wish to manifest, and it takes only a little time and effort for your visions to become reality. Imagine that you have the ability to communicate and interact with the archangels and the vast angelic realm, as well as the ascended masters and the great Beings of Light. All of these attributes and abilities are a part of your natural state of Being in the higher realms, and you are now in the process of regaining these God-given talents, as well as the ability to assist in the evolutionary process of humanity and the Earth.
We have explained many times and in many ways how you separated your Divine Self into a masculine Spark of Essence with the characteristics and qualities of our Father God, and a feminine Spark of Essence with the virtues and attributes of our Mother God. Since that first separation, each Facet of your Self has refracted into a multitude of smaller Sparks of Divinity, and you have assumed a myriad of forms and innumerable missions throughout this universal experience. The next grand stage of universal expansion and the evolution of all sentient Beings are well under way, and each of you has an integral part to play as a StarSeed and a bearer of Divine Light.
The ascension process requires a letting go of those things that have kept you in the stifling, restrictive reality of the Third and Fourth Dimensions. It entails returning to balance and harmony in all facets of your earthly Being, which will result in your memory banks being cleared of all the discordant energies/events of your rich and varied past. All that will remain is the wonder, joy and successful endeavors you have attained as a cocreator in the material realms. As you traverse the path of ascension, you are reclaiming the wisdom stored within your Sacred Mind, and you have tapped into the rich storehouse of Creator Light called Adamantine Particles. You are beginning to demonstrate and use many latent abilities that have been kept in reserve until you were ready to reclaim them.
You were designed to be a transmitter of Light in a world of illusion and shadows. You are on Earth to become a master conveyer of energy. Your breath is the mechanism by which you draw forth the Primal Life Force Substance of Creation while you are functioning in a third- / fourth-dimensional environment. However, as you open and activate your Sacred Heart and Sacred Mind, you have the ability to gain access to the Full Spectrum Light of this universe, and also the Divine alchemical properties of the Violet Flame will be available to you in full measure.
The Law of the Circle insures that the vibrational patterns you send forth will be returned to you, along with an accumulated measure of similarly-qualified energy (or vibrations of the same frequency patterns). You are the center of an energy vortex that is made up of a circle/loop of vibrational patterns that you have projected from you via your Solar Power Center. Your solar plexus is aptly named; for just as the Earth receives cosmic energy from the Sun of your solar system, so do each of you radiate life force energy from your own Solar Power Center. For a moment, envision yourself as the central focus of your world. You are the power source and your thoughts, actions and intentions radiate forth from you in a loop of energy that connects with like energy. That energy magnifies and manifests in the world of cause and effect and then returns to you, reinforcing your picture of reality. Your body absorbs a portion of that energy, creating pain and suffering or joy and blessings, depending on the frequencies. The remainder flows out behind you, creating the other loop of your Infinity pattern, while the residual gradually flows into your personal wheel of creation. You are constantly adding to your personal prison of energy or your vehicle of Light and your personal reality on Earth. Have we not told you that you came to Earth as cocreators with the God Force?
Returning to balance and harmony is a prerequisite to staying centered within the Sacred Heart. In order to do so, you must constantly evaluate and upgrade your awareness of Self. Your emotions are affected by your beliefs, and your intentions are affected by your emotions. Listening to the nudgings of your Soul, the wisdom of your Sacred Mind, and the emotions of your Sacred Heart will help you to fine-tune your discernment abilities so that you can make the right decisions and always choose the highest path. Reverence for all things and God-inspired choices lead to Self-mastery.
One of the most important things you can do to initiate the process of returning to balance and harmony within the reality you have created is to apply the Law of Forgiveness to all your miscreations and interactions with others. Doing so will immediately accelerate the process of returning to center, for it erases or breaks the energy cords you have attached to other people's solar plexuses, and it will also shut off the radiations to and from any negative collective consciousness belief systems that you have taken as your own. You are taking back the vibrational patterns you have exchanged, added to or participated in, thereby allowing you to move into the state of grace process. Be aware that as you do so, you will experience the transformational clearing process and all it entails; however, it will not be as traumatic or as drawn out as it would be if you had not willingly and whole-heartedly agreed to take the initiative.
The Law of Forgiveness includes aligning your will with the greater WILL of our Father /Mother God for the highest and best outcome for All. The Divine Plan for this universe is at a critical stage of the evolution process, and time is of the essence. Becoming an active member of the Light Brigade and a new World Server will open a portal of new possibilities. Those of you who have diligently stayed the course will reap the rewards of Self-mastery and discipleship. As you move into the realm of Self-mastery, you automatically begin to view your life and the world from a higher vantage point and with much wiser insight. You begin to embrace your reality through a filter of Love/Light, and non-judgment and discernment become a natural part of your State of Being.
A good affirmation to remember and use is: I EMBRACE THE WHOLENESS OF MY DIVINE REALITY. There is power in humility. There is power in forgiveness. There is power in gratitude. Love is the power which contains all the virtues and qualities of God Consciousness.
Many of you are aware that in the beginning stages of the initiation process there is a crisis as the battle for supremacy begins between the ego and the Soul. Each person must endeavor to clear his/her illusionary, distorted reality of the astral planes.
The ego desire body is controlled by the energies and impulses of the three lower chakras, and these imbalanced inclinations must be brought under the control of the Soul-Self once more.
This period is often called The Dark Night of the Soul or traversing the valley of shadows. When you are in the midst of the process, it is important that you understand you are not being punished.
After you have successfully traversed the shadow lands and emerged triumphant, you will look back in retrospect, and you will realize that you were given a great opportunity.
A spiritual aspirant is a consciously aware human Being who is seeking en-Lighten-ment and Self-mastery. In the beginning stages, he/she is still somewhat "self-focused" – often prone to temper and irritability, and may experience bouts of self-doubt and depression. A spiritual aspirant should endeavor to develop sensitivity and a loving, understanding nature. The aspirant's life purpose will gradually move away from personal ambition and love of power into a desire to be of service to humanity. A desire to serve others is a Soul instinct.
An aspirant gradually begins to let go of the "It is all about me," and the "I, me, my" concept, as the external focus slowly begins to fade. There is a gradual turning inward, and the major focal point becomes the Solar Power Center, which comprises the solar plexus, heart, thymus and throat. As this area is bathed in the higher frequencies of Light, the Three-Fold Flame in the chest area begins to blaze forth once more in preparation for the opening of the portal to the Sacred Heart.
Allow us to give you a few more important key points to assist you in integrating the wisdom necessary to become a full-fledged spiritual aspirant on the path of en-Lighten-ment:
** The Emotional Body is a reflector. It responds to external stimulation, such as other people,
events, emotional attachments and addictions.
** Tread the path of life gently and reverently. Speak softly with discernment. See that your actions reflect the purity of your God Self and leave footprints of Light for others to follow.
** There is an ebb and flow to the cycles of the Soul, just as there is throughout the Cosmos.
** The Soul draws forth the Essence of life from its I AM Presence in preparation for a new life cycle of experience. At the end of that cycle, the life Essence is slowly withdrawn and the physical death process results; however, the real You in Spirit form remains, for you are immortal.
** The Soul's impulses and influence are much stronger in a Being who has stepped onto the path of awareness than in an unawakened person who is still caught up in the illusion of a Third- / Fourth-Dimensional existence.
** You must strive to maintain an ever-expanding state of Soul-consciousness in order to progress on the upward spiral of ascension. It is time for those who will be among the new World Servers to become aware of each other.
** Criticism is a faculty of the ego and the lower mind. Criticizing or finding fault with yourself or others is detrimental to the extreme. You add energy to that which you focus your attention on; therefore, it is of the utmost importance that you look for the good in everyone and everything.
** Constructive criticism is sometimes necessary. However, it should only be used to assist someone to correct harmful behavior, take the right action, or find the appropriate direction.
** YOU CAN ONLY FAIL IF YOU QUIT TRYING. You may lose time; however, you should gain some knowledge with each failure. Growth and wisdom come from learning what not to do, and in perfecting the skills that will help you become proficient in your chosen field of endeavor.
** Lower vibrational energy creates discordant frequencies within your Soul Song. The vibrations of discord cause discomfort within the area where it originated or where it is focused within the physical vessel. If the negative energy patterns are strong enough, they can create disease and will eventually contaminate the entire body.
** You must tame and gain control of your emotional body via your Higher Self, guides and angelic helpers in order to become receptive to the refined frequencies of Cosmic truth. You must clear the mind of distorted, negative, defeating thoughts. Only a clear vessel can receive and transmit the wisdom teachings of the cosmic libraries of God-consciousness.
** A spiritual seeker refuses to pay attention to public opinion, judgment or failure. Aspirants are recognized by their vibrational frequencies or Light quotient, not by their knowledge or their deeds.
Remember, beloveds, THE CLARION CALL FROM YOUR SOUL SELF WILL CONTINUE TO ECHO UNTIL YOU HEED THE CALL. Many of you have begun or are ready to begin your true mission, whatever that may be, but never forget that the ultimate goal is to be a conveyor of Creator Love/Light. We are aware that the future is uncertain and everyone is experiencing pain and discomfort in varying degrees. We ask you to focus on the miracles and progress you are making and not allow the fear of the masses to infect your mind as you move through and beyond all the massive changes that are taking place in your world. Know that, together, we will overcome all adversity. Our mission is to open the way for any dear Soul who expresses a desire to return to harmony and attunement with their God Self.

Good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen, I believe we can factor in a slight slowdown in China for the foreseeable future. A slight slowdown from an impressive GDP number of nearly 7 percent annually is still quite impressive. Because of the change in focus, future growth in China will be like the mature economies, though there is still huge potential for growth in the nature of a developing economy outside the major towns and cities. So they are not in a mad rush to develop further as rapidly as before, and can patiently wait till the commodities prices hit a bottom before restocking. That time may be arriving soon, if not already here.
Economic activity and growth in the Euro Area seems assured, after the ECB President Mario Draghi announced the central bank's willingness to extend the Stimulus beyond September 2016, coupled that day with a 10 basis points reduction in the interest rate. This in itself will give companies the courage and backing to borrow and invest in innovation and upgrade, and in due time create additional jobs and wealth for the future.
The United Kingdom is experiencing increased activity and creation of jobs and apprenticeships, successfully concluding deals with China and India recently for major projects. It is anybody's guess that David Cameron is lining up similar deals with other nations. The prospects are rosy.
People wishing to buy houses to live in may find the circumstances favourable, as the Chancellor has announced 3 percent additional Stamp Duty for the buy-to-let landlords, as well as taking away the tax breaks on the 40 percent tax-band. This may cool down the property market just a bit, to allow families to buy their first property. This seems to be the intention of this strategy.
I am surmising the benchmark rate won't be going up just yet, perhaps not for a good few months more.
The U.S. Federal Reserve keeps all guessing, but there again, I am surmising the rate won't be hiked up just yet. Just the talk of it seems to impact consumer spending, as happened in a recent month. So I am assuming Dr Yellen will generously allow the people to continue spending freely, without fear of an imminent rate hike.
As for the Debt Ceiling, this line in the sand as one American banker put it, will come up for review on 11th December, although arrangements are in place to continue it upto mid February. Here I imagine they may wish to fix this for another year, taking the economy safely upto December 2016, or even beyond. No purpose to have Mr Obama having to curtail his holidays to rush back to Washington and the cold corridors of power near Christmas for this purpose, as happened on a previous occasion. If the debt ceiling is fixed for a year or so, everybody can have a cosy time celebrating Christmas.
Everybody would say Cheers to that.

Cowboy hats are often associated with the American Old West era, but they are also contemporary pieces that add style and a touch of fun to your outfits. Cowboy hats may be made from felt or straw, and they have a broad brim that keeps the sun out of your eyes. If you find that your cowboy hat has stretched over time or if the cowboy hat you bought is simply too large for you, you can adjust the fit to your needs.
Things You'll Need
Measuring tape
Adhesive weatherstripping
Step 1
Measure around the interior of your cowboy hat using a measuring tape, just inside the edge where the crown meets the brim.
Step 2
Cut a piece of adhesive weatherstripping that matches the measurement you took in Step 1.
Step 3
Peel the paper from the adhesive weatherstripping.
Step 4
Apply the weatherstripping to the interior of the crown. The weatherstripping holds the cowboy hat to your head more closely and prevents it from sliding.
Use 3/4-inch-wide weatherstripping to get a good grip without being too wide.
A cowboy hat that is too big is preferable to one that is too small. Extensive tailoring may be needed to refit a hat that is too small.
