This is fantastic. What if you have ginger bearded "brothers" but are not twins or technically related. Could just the presence of multiple bearded gingers provoke some sort of discount.

When can we begin tasting your beers in Tampa Bay?

Can I be granted a discount if I dye my hair red?
Can I also be granted a discount if I once dated twin sisters that dyed their hair red?
Can I be granted a discount if my check book is in the red like that of the US Treasury?
Can I be granted a discount if my eyes are red from overdrinking HAlf Acres' savoury brews?
Can I, Can I? Well, can I?

You get a discount if you bring in the twins that you used to date, but that's about it.
And maybe if your eyes are really red.

As both a ginger and a twin I am very excited about this discount. Perhaps we can grow beards for this discount.

I just got an Toshiba Encore 8 (64GB drive) tablet and it came with Windows 10, and I was hoping to use some of the TBU tools with it. I was able to get into the BIOS settings, but I noticed it has Secure Boot and something called XHCI enabled (can be changed to "EHCI").
I found this thread:
and understand that BIBM and IFL should be able to boot, but BIBM cannot be used as a boot manager. That's ok, but I am unclear how to get BIBM, and in particular Partition Works and IFL working?
I bought an OTG (microUSB-to-USB) cable, and I also have both an external DVD drive and a USB stick that can be booted as a USB floppy.
Can anyone tell me what I need to get (I think I have a BIBM bundle license) and what I need to do, maybe to get the tablet to boot off of the USB stick or DVD? Also is there any possibility of getting the BIBM and IFL etc. to boot from the internal SSD/EMMC drive, so I don't have to carry the USB stick and the OTG cable around all the time?

6) Building and Maintaining Your Credit
Used wisely, credit is a great financial tool. Good credit enables you to enjoy a higher standard of living, for example, by making it possible to purchase a car, pay for an education, or buy a home without saving up the total cost of such big-ticket items. As a safety net, good credit helps consumers meet emergency expenses. As a convenience, good credit helps wise consumers manage cash flow and purchase goods without carrying around a lot of cash.
Used unwisely, however, credit can pave the road to financial ruin. Unfortunately today, many people are discovering that harsh reality. Household debt in relation to disposable income is at record highs. Rather than stepping up to a brighter future, overextended consumers find themselves stepping down to bankruptcy court. Not only is the overall number of consumer bankruptcies at historic highs according to the Federal Reserve, but a growing number of people filing for bankruptcy are age 25 or younger and college educated.
Building Credit is a Bigger Job Than Getting Credit
For adults who came of age in the nineties and after, getting credit was no problem. Credit card companies stuffed the mailbox daily with attractive offers—soon the wallet held a dozen. Auto dealerships were fighting to offer first-time buyers a "hot deal." Buy that house full of furniture, the latest computer, a high-tech home entertainment center? No problem, just sign the line for instant credit and no payments till the next century.
Managing that credit well is another story. It's so easy to fall into the "buy now, pay someday later" mentality, isn't it? Pretty soon, you may notice the following the danger signs.
Danger Signs That You're Courting Credit Troubles
These are just a few signs that overwhelming debt may be lurking in your future, if it's not already at the door:
- The number of credit cards you have: experts recommend keeping only two or three. If you need a card with no annual fee, low competitive interests rates, and no traps, be sure to check out the VISA cards offered by your credit union.
- Paying only the monthly minimum on credit card balances: spending more than you pay off monthly piles on debt over time.
- Frequently paying bills late: this trouble sign also goes in your credit record.
- Skipping payments because you don't have the cash: another blotch in the credit record.
- Using credit to pay for such necessities as food or gasoline because you are short of cash.
- Frequent impulse purchasing using credit: "I want it, I'll buy it (even though I won't have funds to pay for it anytime soon)" is another attitude that piles on debt.
Protecting Your Credit and Building It The Right Way
The techniques and tools that protect your credit are those that also build good credit in the first place.
1. Budget—to keep spending within your income.
Yes, making a budget (and sticking to it) is a pain in the anatomy—but a pleasure to the pocketbook. Experts advise that the best way to start creating a budget is to keep track for a time of all your expenses, not just the monthly fixed expenses but particularly all cash expenditures. When you know where your needs are and where your money typically goes, then you can plan how to allocate your income to meet necessary expenses and accomplish your financial goals. The following sites offer some good basic budgeting guides:
- From Nolo.com—"How to Make a Budget and Stick to It"
- From CNNMoney—"The Dubious Joy of Budgets"
2. Pay bills on time every time.
Paying on time shows potential creditors that you are responsible.
3. Pay more than the minimum on credit card balances.
In fact, pay off the total charges each month unless you have planned a larger purchase (such as large appliance or a computer) and budgeted to pay it off in a specific time. If you pay only the minimum on lots of cards, you'll pay down almost no debt while racking up lots of interest charges.
4. Avoid practices that can appear as red flags on your credit history.
A couple of the more common red flags are:
- Carrying high balances on one or more credit cards: if you appear to lenders to have too much debt for your income (debt-to-income ratio), they may turn you down for additional credit, perhaps when you apply for that new car loan or a mortgage for your dream home.
- A large number of credit applications: generally if the applications are bunched around one activity such as applying for a mortgage, lenders don't count that against you. But if you appear to say yes to every retail, gas and bank credit offer, red flags wave.
5. Check your credit report regularly for errors.
As required by an amendment to the Fair Credit Reporting Act, as of September 1, 2005, all individuals in all U.S. states and territories are able to request one free report annual from each of the three major credit reporting agencies. Every consumer also has access to a free credit report if you've been turned down for credit or in other circumstances. You may order your free reports online at the official website (www.annualcreditreport.com) or make your request by toll-free phone call to 877-322-8228. You may also order by mail using the order form included in this useful fact sheet from the Federal Trade Commission (FTC): "Your Access to Free Credit Reports". A good article from the Federal Trade Commission (FTC), "How to Dispute Credit Report Errors" tells you how to check the report and get any errors corrected.
If you wish to review your credit report at more frequent intervals than annually you may purchase individual reports from the three major CRAs: Equifax, Experian, and TransUnion. Some state laws also provide for consumers to receive two reports annually.
6. Make a plan to pay off current debt in a timely manner.
First, do you know if you have too much debt? "Knee Deep in Debt" from the FTC may help you give your finances a debt check-up.
When Money Matters Are Getting Really Desperate
If you feel you're already drowning in debt, take a deep breath, don't panic, and get some help:
- Talk to your credit union: many credit unions provide resources for members such as discussing whether using a home equity loan to consolidate debt might be appropriate or recommending reputable credit counseling services.
- Consider credit counseling: there are reputable nonprofit agencies such as Consumer Credit Counseling Services (CCCS) and others which have more interest in padding their own pockets than helping you rescue yours.
- Avoid "credit repair services:" such outfits advertise widely, but at best they charge you good money to do nothing more than you can do yourself for free. At worst, they are simply scams to steal your money. "Credit Repair: Self-Help May Be Best" from the FTC show you how to take steps yourself.

EU helps to boost food security and build resilience to drought in Ethiopia
The European Union (EU) has announced that it will provide €50 million to improve food security and build resilience to drought in southern and eastern Ethiopia. The project is part of the Supporting Horn of Africa Resilience (SHARE) initiative taken by EU Commissioners Andris Piebalgs and Kristalina Georgieva.
The new funds will help to boost food security in the lowland areas of Ethiopia through a series of long-term measures: for example, it will support a mechanism that provides cash and food to vulnerable people in case of a shock (eg during a drought) and will improve nutrition, for instance by promoting dietary diversification and the local production of vegetables, milk and forage.
The assistance will also strengthen animal health services and support livestock vaccination campaigns, as well as the management of natural resources such as water and grazing lands. The various activities will help families get more income and be better prepared to cope with any further droughts or shocks.
"The EU has already done all it can to address the immediate impact of drought in Ethiopia through its humanitarian assistance. Now, with this new programme, we will be helping Ethiopian people in the longer-term; providing support to help them rebuild their lives, make a living, and make sure they are well equipped to deal with droughts that will inevitably come again in the future." said Development Commissioner, Andris Piebalgs.
Kristalina Georgieva, Commissioner for International Cooperation, Humanitarian Aid and Crisis Response, added: "The EU's SHARE initiative effectively links humanitarian assistance with longer-term development aid to better protect vulnerable populations in the Horn of Africa from recurrent drought and hunger. Through SHARE they will be better prepared to resist such shocks in the long run. SHARE is a prime example for how we can ensure better coherence of EU external assistance instruments and a maximum impact of our aid for the benefit of the targeted populations".
The Horn of Africa is plagued by recurrent droughts, which often translate into emergencies, with high levels of malnutrition and food insecurity. Increasing demographic pressures on natural resources, along with poor infrastructure, an absence of alternative livelihoods, and insecurity, make people particularly vulnerable to droughts in this region.
The SHARE initiative provides additional support to the most affected regions of the Horn of Africa, improves disaster preparedness and helps to better link humanitarian aid and development cooperation.
The Accelerating Resilience Capacity in Southern and Eastern Ethiopia (ARCE) project (part of the SHARE regional programme) will be implemented by UNICEF, the UN's Food and Agriculture Organisation (FAO) and the World Bank, along with NGOs.
The project invests in the ability of people and communities to withstand droughts. It fits in the EU approach on building resilience through a combination of humanitarian and development assistance. The project focuses on southern and eastern Ethiopia - those parts of the country that are regularly affected by drought conditions. The assistance is multi-facetted; covering food and nutrition security, diversification of livelihoods, and natural resource management.
The development cooperation programme with Ethiopia is one of the largest the EU runs in the world. Disbursements in the past years amounted to an average of about €160 million per year. The long-term cooperation programme centres around three areas; rural development and food security, transport and regional integration and service delivery and governance.
