The European Union
Well, that's the election out of the way here in the UK. The next thing on the agenda will be the referendum we've been promised, which will decide whether we stay in the European Union (EU) or not.
There's a lot of opinions about this out there in the media and they'll be a hell of a lot more before the referendum actually comes around.
But what's the answer? Should we stay in or leave?
Well, I can't tell you the answer, probably no-one can, because no-one knows all the effects of the UK leaving. And we don't know what's in the future for us if we stay in either.
I can tell you something though which would possibly satisfy those on either side of the argument, although it will probably never, ever happen.
My suggestion is this. That we revert the EU from its current state back to what is was originally when the UK joined.
It was known as the European Economic Community (EEC) or Common Market then and, to be fair, we (the people of the UK) have never been consulted on whether we wanted everything which came afterwards. We voted to join a Common Market NOT a United States of Europe.
I'd actually wager that it's only a very small proportion of the population right across Europe who actually want a United States of Europe i.e. complete political and fiscal union. Most would welcome close ties between the countries on a commercial level. And that was the idea of the Common Market.
So, perhaps we should be campaigning for a Common Market and not an in/out referendum on an EU Super State? Good for business, good for jobs and therefore good for people too. Not so good, however, for all those bureaucrats in Brussels. But maybe, just maybe, we should put our own people and countries first before letting some nameless, faceless people decide things for us.
A Common Market NOT a United States of Europe. It can't be that difficult, can it?
Thanks for reading,

Planned Parenthood's #IDEFY Campaign at Broccoli City Festival this Weekend
For Immediate Release: May 6, 2017
Saturday, May 6, Stop by Planned Parenthood's #IDEFY 360 Balloon Booth
Washington, DC — This Saturday, Planned Parenthood's #IDEFY campaign will have an interactive 360 Balloon Booth at DC's Broccoli City Festival. #IDEFY is Planned Parenthood's campaign designed to amplify the voices of young people across the country who are fighting to defy hate and discrimination in all forms, by asking them to use social media to tell the world what they defy.
This year's Broccoli City Festival is coming at an especially critical time as one of the things young people defy is the repeal of the Affordable Care Act that would "defund" Planned Parenthood and is the worst bill for women's health in generation. This would have a huge impact on young people as 70% of Planned Parenthood's patient base are under 30. Young people are standing up to fight against this attack on their health care and the many attacks on communities of color and LGBTQ people happening across the country.
What: Planned Parenthood will be hosting a #IDEFY 360 photo booth where they will invite attendees to write down what they defy on to balloons and pop them in a symbolic act of defiance. Photos will be shared on social media using #IDEFY to share the messages of defiance and inspire more young people to fight back.
Who: Kersha Deibel, Director of Constituency Organizing will be available to do interviews about the #IDEFY campaign. Several of the musicians performing at Broccoli City Festival will participate in the campaign either from the stage, social media, or stopping by the booth to share what they defy.
Where: Planned Parenthood's #IDEFY 360 Balloon Booth
When: Saturday, May 6 12:00 pm to 8:00 pm
RSVP: [email protected] if you are interested in an interview with a Planned Parenthood spokesperson at Broccoli City Festival or about the #IDEFY Campaign.
To learn more about the #IDEFY campaign, go to www.defynow.org.
Missed the #IDEFY launch? Check out more info here:
During the launch event, Planned Parenthood asked young people to tell us what they defy — intolerance, slut-shaming, abortion stigma, racism, xenophobia — and had artists paint those words on six walls that were then destroyed by a giant wrecking ball, in a symbolic act of defiance.
To watch a recording of the live launch event see here
Celebrities and cultural influencers are joining the campaign to say what they #IDEFY. Check out #IDEFY videos, photos, and posts from Sara Bareilles, Sleater-Kinney, Constance Wu, Tegan and Sara, Kaitlin Doubleday, Disney stars Shelby Wulfert and Jessica Marie Garcia of Liv & Maddie, and Audrey Whitby of Sonny with a Chance

TAIPEI (Reuters Life!) - George Wu, 15, a typically shy, soft-spoken Taipei high school student, goes underground in more ways than one to follow his passion.
But Wu and his friends from school have found over the past couple of years that their shadowy habit of street dancing, basically mass break dancing sometimes with local music, has been taken from subterranean malls upstairs into the limelight.
The Taipei Metro, where dancers such as Wu collect in the margins of stations with battery-operated boom boxes, is holding a four-phase contest this month and next. It has drawn 300 teams of two to eight people, about twice last year's attendance.
"It was underground to start, but it's normal now," said Wu, who has practiced for a year in a cavernous subway station mall. "It's getting to be something for all of us."
Street dancing stayed underground from its start in 2002 until 2006, when the local film "Chocolate Rap" sought to strip away public scorn.
This July, National Geographic debuted the one-hour, government-backed documentary "Hip Hop Nation" covering the same dance style. The government plans in October to release its own street dance documentary for foreign audiences.
"Is it mainstream? No, but it's pop culture that used to be underground," said Miguel Huang, secretary for the Government Information Office's audio-visual materials section. "Taiwan's market gives the underground a lot of chances."
School clubs and Taiwan websites are also pushing the dance.
Taiwan takes basic cues from American-style break dancing, local entertainment experts say, but sometimes replaces hip-hop with local music sung in narrative style and a local dialect.
"Street dancing is pop culture and a symbol of Taiwan's local culture, because street dances use not only Western music but also Taiwan music, with lyrics in Taiwanese," said Mindy Lee, National Geographic marketing director in Taipei.
Taiwan dancers are usually shy high school students who practice together to fight fears of mistakes.
Wu practiced this week with about 20 other teenagers in black T-shirts, rolled-up sweat pants and sun hats despite the dim venue. They danced in unison with dramatic arm and leg thrusts.
"I'm just interested in it," said quiet, nervous 16-year-old dancer Hu Min-hsiang, who learned about dancing from a friend and practices every day on school vacations. "The more I do it, the more interested I am."

By Balkisu Muhammad.
Growing up as a girl in Northern Nigerian society is very different from any other society. The Northern Nigerian society as we all know is very conservative in nature. As a girl you are also expected to be conservative and reserved in everything you do. In your dressing, your interactions with others, you are not allowed to express your views, you are expected to lower gaze, you cannot look at elders directly in the eye, and when greeting an older person, you go down; you expected to exhibit a serious sense of humility and meekness…. All these are considered attributes of being a proper woman. You are also made to believe that a woman is inferior to the man. You are expected to know your place as a woman. Any attempt at being liberal is frowned upon.
Any attempt at questioning this system is quickly and viciously put down.
As you grow up and mature into a woman, these cultural rules have implications on your lifestyle and world view. No matter your position in the society, if you are single, you will be looked down upon and disrespected because you are a woman, especially if you are an unmarried or divorced woman. Most people treat ladies who are past their early twenties and single as outcasts. Even in our institutions, sometimes single ladies get maltreated by men and women alike simply for being unmarried after a certain age. Divorced women are negatively stereotyped in the North. They are seen as uncontrollable and loose women.
Any problem in a marriage is mostly considered to be the fault of the wife, as if the man is a saint. In Northern Nigeria, sainthood and angelic immunity has been bestowed on our men by the society. Women experiencing any abuse in their matrimonial homes cannot speak up because they are afraid what the society will think of them. They cannot leave for fear of being ostracized and branded as women that have no manners to remain in a marriage. Instead they cover up all manner of atrocities and suffer, often to their detriment and that of their children.
The most profound of these challenges as Northern Women is our career choices. In the north, some people still believe that women were created solely to take care of their husbands and children. To these people any woman that aspires to becoming anyone apart from a wife and a mother is an abomination and an aberration. For some liberal ones, you should be a civil servant or do a little buying and selling. And if you are really lucky, you will meet others that approve of teaching or nursing! Careers like banking, diplomacy, medicine, journalism, acting and politics are frowned upon and not encouraged. For instance, society frowns at female bankers. Likewise, any political participation on a woman's part is termed irresponsible behaviour capable of bringing dishonor and shame to the family. It is very unfortunate that Female politicians are usually stereotyped as Karuwai, loose living women or women who have no sense of value or morals. This is Unfortunate and counterproductive to our political development as a nation.
No matter your qualification, experience and vision, most of our people will never vote for you. Not because your manifesto is rubbish but simply because you are a woman. The Perception of the northern Nigeria society, female politicians is very carefree and lack proper values. Some go as far as calling them all sorts of demeaning names i.e. yar iska, karuwa that depict wayward lifestyles. Just like our sisters who are excelling in banking, medicine and other great careers.
There is also an ingrained false belief that career women cannot maintain a home. If other women are doing it, why cannot the northern woman do the same?
It is important for our society to understand that the place of women has changed from being exclusively homemakers to nation builders and decision makers. Our young girls must be encouraged to have great ambitions. Ambitions beyond being wives and mothers, beyond only weddings and naming ceremonies, beyond gossiping and childish behaviour to lofty heights we can all be proud of. The only way forward is to include our girls and women in the task of developing from a 13th century mindset to the realities of the 21st century.
I for one will like to be diplomat someday. I do not care what society thinks, nothing will stop me. I have the likes of Mrs. Amina Mohammed, the United Nations Deputy Secretary General and Dr. Zainab Usman of the World Bank to look up to. I do not think of those that have failed but those that have continued to strive to make a difference in this world. Because these barriers and limitations were there yesterday, are still here today and might be there in the future, and the only way to progress is to break these barriers!
Arise Arewa Women.

Most people pass through Echo Cavern without a second thought, on their way to Fungus Grove. Boy are you missing out on a sweet place to hunt that will undoubtedly be nerfed real soon. This walkthru probably won't help. :) So let's keep this as a Forest secret, ok?
Zone into Echo from the hidden entrance near the Soul Binder in Shadowhaven. Now, when you zone in, there's a T intersection, with the left hall leading to Echo and the right leading to what appears to be a dead end. It's not. Click on the right wall and the door will open leading you to a merchant area. The button opening the door from the inside is clearly visible on the left wall. Some of the merchants in the tents in the middle are neutral, although evil races won't get a warm reception. Now let's look at this place. Map segment taken from EQAtlas.
In here are merchants and trainers for evil wizards, enchanters, mages, necros and shadowknights. Killing in here will wreck your faction with them, so if you play an evil character who will need to buy from these guys, do your shopping before you kill, and get all your shopping out of the way because you'll be KOS real fast.
In the area marked 3 is a fort with several trainers. Here's a shot from the outside.
The Archers (tagged as so in the picture) will only shoot at you, you can hide behind rocks after nailing them with DoTs. I use my epic, ES Vambs, Winged Death and Breath of Ro to take them down one at a time. You will need to cast all four (epic, Vambs, WD, BoR) twice to drop them. Don't try doing both, you'll get hit too much. Med as the DoTs work. They drop 2 bows each, and you'll get 19 plat from the merchants right there in the zone for them.
That's 76 plat per kill, plus whatever you get off them. You'll make a mint here. After a while, when you are KOS, invis yourself before going in to loot the bows, and jump off the fort to the ground out front. Then kill the two Scounds outside the front entrance. They are far enough and their agro radius small enough that you can pull one without getting the other. The Scounds, like the archers, drop around 4-5pp per kill. Pulling from inside the fort is risky. If you agro a trainer you are dead unless you make it to the zone. You might be able to pull the two trainees on the left-hand side and the Bowmaster, but it's risky. If you pull the Marshall it's all over. Run for the zone or start looking for a rez.
The section marked 2 on the EQAtlas map has more Scounds and trainers. Only pull the two Scounds out in front. Anything else is suicide.
Now you'll notice there's a tunnel leading to an area with water. Swim to the area marked 1 on the map. When you emerge from the water there will be three skeletons called Arisen Soldier. Here's a shot of them. These skeletons were the old gold mine. They had 1100hp and are level 47-49. No joke. Engorging Roots (190 dmg) and Wildfire (1024 dmg) killed them and I got a huge jump in XP just from killing them. I killed them with my epic DoT. Root the two on the outside first, then the one in the middle. Up the stairs from these guys is a necro trainer, so don't go too far up the stairs or it's curtains.
Verant nerfed the hell out of them and made them more appropriate level 49 mobs. They now hit for 120 a lot more often and have around 5,000 HP. You can still do them, I have, but they aren't the joke they used to be.
Between these skeletons, the Scounds and Archers, I blasted through levels 58 and 59 in two weeks (58 in 5 days, 59 in 8 days) and made about 4k in plat. It happened because this area is totally unknown on my server. On other servers, like Sullon Zek, it's camped 24 hours a day. So be kind to your fellow druids. Or share. The XP isn't bad for grouping either. A tank, cleric and druid can own the place.

This Is For All You Bull Market Geniuses
8 comments:
I'm waiting for an update of the SDS vehicle if you please to do it. The week didn't end yet and we saw these red days many times closing green; but maybe, just maybe, we get a reversal confirmation based on pivot points for SDS.
thanks in advance!
- May 07, 2010
The bulls keep trying to turn it around today. What's your view on a day in the green, Guy? Will this bring back more bulls on Monday to build on the gain or sucker them in for another big decline?
- May 07, 2010
Maybe the ongoing Financial Crisis 2.0 finally brings the 'dumb money' indicator to the bearish region again?
I think that currently there are two big opposing things that can influence the market sentiment:
1) People are tired of thinking about the recession, and economic growth has started again: this lifts the sentiment.
2) The US federal government and most European states are on the same road as Greece: a default will happen sooner or later unless there is a strict austerity program that includes tax hikes and spending cuts.
I believe that within 4 years, 2) will win: there will be a serious global recession and the consequent depression in the market sentiment. But in short term, people want to forget about 2). Thus, this year, the sentiment will stay elevated most of the time.

Nice vindication of your analysis Guy. A little horn blowing is certainly not out of order. Now if the bullish sentiment is still registering extreme doesn't this increase the likelihood of more downside? All I see in the action today (so far) is the same old tired equation of rising price + falling volume = (imho) wrong price.
- May 07, 2010
I suspect all those black boxes of volitility will be reset no later than Tuesday to once again take monies from traders with stops to tight. Therefore, SDS could be in jeopardy early this week when the oversold condition gets rectified during the reset. The only genius one needs is to be aware that if this market does tank, which I doubt, those you call dumb money will pull their stable funds from the likes of Vanguard never to return. Are you aware that VG has offered their dumb money cheap brokerage accounts? If such investors wanted brokerage accounts, they would have left some time ago rather than rely on money managers.
- May 09, 2010
I think some humility is in order. You have people commenting like this,
"Nice vindication of your analysis Guy. A little horn blowing is certainly not out of order."
Uh, you have been totally off the mark for the last 6-8 months so it only makes sense that even by chance alone you'd be correct.
- May 09, 2010
Someone lost money today and is pissed! Ahem.
- May 09, 2010
- Guy M. Lerner said...
This is in response to the comments made by the last anonymous person on the list
you said off the mark for the last 6-8 months...I am not so sure about that but you are entitled to that opinion; for example, was anyone telling you to sell in November prior to the the 4 months range and drop into January? No. I rest my case.
I think the point that should be clear from the article is this: the indicator hits extremes of bullishness and usually this coincides with CNBC saying it is time to dip a toe in the water....you know, stocks are safe to buy; this is also the time I get emails from dumby heads saying that I am an idiot; once again you can have an opinion but put some facts to that bias
I suspect that typifies the behavior of most investors -buying a sure thing, buying the breakout
Whether you want to call it vindication or not, the point is that it is always better to buy low than high (obvious) and buy when others aren't; the sentiment data clearly showed this even during the historic run of the past 61 weeks; the market gained 0% for those 48 weeks that the dumb money indicator was in the extreme bullish zone

Yeah, we are, and that's, while not the whole point, a big part of it. Reader T Wictor responded to our posts on the arrests of terror suspects in Canada and England:
What the Canadians and Europeans will never admit to is that they don't really allow their Muslims to assimilate. Their nations don't provide Muslims with the freedom and respect that the U.S. does. Canada and Europe tolerate Muslims; we accept them.
Another factor is that human rights in Canada and Europe are granted by the government, while in the U.S. we state explicitly that human rights are inalienable, granted by God. The U.S. stands for something greater than simply social services, government handouts, multi-culti platitudes, and this engenders loyalty in a lot of Muslims who come from countries with oppressive governments.
This has apparently paid off in a big way. Strategy Page says that American Muslims have volunteered in large numbers to become informants in the mosques. This is one of the reasons we haven't had a follow-up attack to 9/11.
We also welcome Muslims into positions of power and trust. In the following story, the marine sergeant is an Iraqi immigrant, yet we have no qualms asking him to fight his former countrymen.
One of the reasons the French didn't send in the army to quell the Great Nationwide Carbecue of a few months back was because there are so many Muslims in the service. The government just doesn't trust them.
The links are also excellent.

In Microsoft Project Web App, time reporting periods define the start dates and the end dates used for each timesheet and task status report. When you first create time reporting periods, the best practice is to create them in bulk. However, you can insert individual time reporting periods, or delete them, as needed.
Insert a time reporting period
On the Quick Launch, in the Settings section, click Server Settings.
On the Server Settings page, in the Time and Task Management section, click Time Reporting Periods.
In the Create Periods section, scroll through the list to find where you want to insert a new time reporting period, and then click the nearest existing period.
Click Insert Before or Insert After to create a new row for the period you are inserting.
In the Period Label column, replace the New Period text with the name of the inserted period.
Replace the dates in the Start Date and End Date columns, if you need to.
If the inserted period is currently not open for resources to report data, select Closed in the Status column.
Click Save.
Delete a time reporting period
You may also find that you occasionally have to delete existing time periods. For example, if your organization has already set up one-week time reporting periods for the whole year, and partway through the year you decide to switch to two-week time reporting periods, you must delete the remaining one-week periods and re-create the rest of the year as two-week periods.
To delete a time reporting period:
On the Quick Launch, in the Settings section, click Server Settings.
On the Server Settings page, in the Time and Task Management section, click Time Reporting Periods.
In the Create Periods section, click the row for the time period you want to delete, and then click Delete.
Important: To protect project data that is provided by team members, time reporting periods that have associated timesheets cannot be deleted. Because it is common for time reporting periods to have associated timesheets, it is unlikely that you will be able to delete past time reporting periods.
Click Save.

OSLO, Dec 21 (Reuters) - Norway's central bank, which manages the country's $869 billion wealth fund, has excluded an additional 15 companies from its portfolio due to their use or production of coal, and plans further exclusions next year, it said on Wednesday.
The world's largest sovereign wealth fund also placed 11 firms under observation for potential future exclusion.
The fund removes companies from its portfolio based on a range of criteria, including the production of tobacco, nuclear arms and products that can contribute to climate change.
In total, Norges Bank has so far excluded 59 companies and placed 11 companies under observation under its so-called product-based coal criterion.

Simple pleasures…
As we get older, I think we become more aware of 'simple' pleasures', well I know I do! The smell of coffee brewing, freshly cut grass or hearing an owl hoot – all simple things that give immense pleasure.
I read the other day that Vita Sackville-West (she of Sissinghurst Garden fame, amongst other things…) used the term 'through leaves' to describe simple pleasures enjoyed by her family. She coined the phrase after "the small but intense pleasure of kicking through leaves while out walking", which I thought was rather lovely.
Another classic, that I expect almost all of us know, are the lyrics to the song 'My favourite things' from the Sound of Music, including whiskers on kittens, warm woollen mittens and brown paper packages tied up with string.
It's so easy to think that pleasures have to be big and expensive, like holidays, or fancy clothes… but I think we start to appreciate the simple things the more we experience life. You often hear people who have survived cancer, or cheated death in an accident or natural disaster, say how they appreciate every day, every moment, and are more aware of what's around them.
I had a think about my 'through leaves' moments, and came up with the following list:
- The smell of baking bread (thanks to Richard and his bread maker!)
- Little Grace running towards me with her arms open
- A beautiful sunset (or dawn, but that's rare!)
- Hearing my daughters say a casual I love you
- Finishing a card and sitting back and thinking – that's a keeper!
My co-author Julia was here (we were busy having a book signing session!) and I asked her, for her 'Through leaves' moments and she said:
- Standing in the middle of her runner bean arch(!)
- Being greeted by her dog, Moss, in the morning
- Watching beech leaves unfurl in spring
- Walks on frosty mornings
- Birdsong
So what are your 'through leaves' moments? Do let me know… smiles, Joanna

In addition to air, food, water and shelter here are my 10 things I can't live without. Moreover few are my 'wants' rather than need.
10 Things I can't Live Without
It is indeed surprising he is on top of my 10 things I can't live without even though he is not a 'thing' (Considering we fight A LOT. lol). What's more astonishing is its 5 years of living with him! I like to annoy him with pings if he ignores me or mad at me (Cruel, I know ;). This post will be not be enough to explain our relationship, so I will stop right now.
2. Debit Card
Yes, Yup, Absolutely, Debit Card (s)!It has lessened the burden to carry (lots of) cash all the time. Whether it is ordering online or buying offline, it is a big saver.
3. YouTube
A huge platform for many hidden talents out there. I love, love, love to watch YouTube videos (never the sleazy ones). It has almost cut down my TV time. Certain YouTubers are truly inspirational. They have inspired me and made me concentrate on healthy and organized lifestyle. I watch them mostly when I cook or clean up my home and my time is worth spend.
I absolutely adore videos by Love Meg, her DIYs and organizational tips are amazing and worth trying out. She has made me more organized and her cleaning routine inspired me every time.
And what can I say about britneyandbaby! I love her family. I have almost seen all of her videos and I await for her uploads.
4. Pinterest
Really? Yes, you too should miss out in the wonderland of Pinterest. There is mammoth of information over here. Right from home to office, DIYs, blogging, vlogging, maternity, babies, kids, business, I can't even name all of the info present on Pinterest here.
I found it useful in my day-to-day life. I came across many handy DIYs, tips and tricks. Check it out for sure.
5. Sanitary Napkins
Why not to include these in my 10 things I can't live without list? Not only me, every menstruating female can't live without it.
Tip: Always, I mean ALWAYS keep one in your handbag. Who would know when it might come to rescue even if the date isn't near!
6. Gaana / Saavn
This is the subtle way of saying 'music' (which is cliched, I know). Both of these Apps keeps me accompanied while I do my household chores. I cannot pick any one as my favorites because they both have some amazing playlist which are unique.
7. Pen
In this world of iphones and android, I still can't live without a pen. I am a bit old school when it comes to writing down anything or making a list. I love collecting different pens but due to space crunch I have to limit myself. I like regular pens, markers, highlighters are my favorite.
My academic books were filled with underlined sentences, small notes or important points with pencil / colorful pen or highlighter. They indeed helped me memorizing (and not just coloring if you are thinking I was ruining the book :P)
8. To-do list
Of course, if I can't live without a pen then how can I without my to-do list? This
habit I inculcated by watching YouTube, making my life a bit more organized. Isn't it satisfying to strike out each point from the to-do list? I feel more relaxed when I accomplish what I ought to-do.
This habit has made me crazy about sticky notes and fridge magnets wherein both are useful when jotting down the list.
9. Quotes
Hands down, my infatuation with quotes will never end. May it be high or low in life, quotes always inspire me. Every room in my home has one of my many favorite quotes.
Quotes are like a tiny ray of hope which always pulls me up to realize, "Life goes on…" Try reading quotes more often they have the power to modify our behavior and thoughts.
10. Harry Potter
Yet another way to say that books are my life. They are my oxygen, they keep me alive. They are my companion when I am alone, they are my best friends when I am lonely.
Harry Potter books are the reason I fell in love with reading all over again. They hold a cherished space in my memories. I do hope someday I shall re-read them with my kid.
So, here where my 10 things I can't live without. I am sure there would be all different things which one could list down, what are yours? I would love to read them. Do share few even if they are crazy ones like mine 😀

Several Associate Members of Donors Forum were quoted in an article on Forbes.com on the role that professional advisors can play in helping individuals and families make their philanthropy the most effective.
The article quotes Betsy Brill, Strategic Philanthropy, Ltd; Kirk Hoopingarner, Wildman Harrold Allen & Dixon; and Lee Morava, Gresham Partners. It also mentions Rockefeller Philanthropy Advisors, a Donors Forum Member. An excerpt:
Making sure that a philanthropic effort stays relevant well into the future can be an important part of planning, too, says Betsy Brill, president of Strategic Philanthropy Ltd. in Chicago. That's especially true if money is set aside to fund a cause after the donor dies. If the cause is, say, curing a disease, make sure there's a clear plan for where the money will go once a cure is found. Drafting legal documents in a way that allows for certain contingencies can prevent money from being tied up in a foundation that no longer makes sense.

What you have here is something that appears to be an identical small pump that has been given three different applications and three different model names, says Jeremy Gay.
The miniUP is a conventional small internal canister filter, pushing up to 300lph (adjustable) and for just five watts. The miniFLAT is designed to be positioned on its back in shallow water, so it's perfect for paludariums and the skim (pictured above) is a highly effective surface skimmer.
I've tested the UP long-term but it's just not like an EHEIM! I recall my criteria for internal filter buyers' guides gone by: multiple sponges for alternate cleaning, adjustable output, directional output, room for other media, no channelling through sponges, and ease of cleaning and maintenance.
The EHEIM Aquaball internal filters scored top marks for everything, but this internal is riddled with issues. Yes, there are two sponges and adjustable flow but there is no directional flow, and all the dirt is channelled on to the fronts of the sponges and nowhere else. The suckers are small and poor, and when you go to maintain the filter the head unit and middle bit come off in your hand, when you really just wanted to access the sponges and leave everything else in the tank.
I grew up with EHEIM being head and shoulders above the rest, but I have seen the competition catch up of late. And now for the first time ever, I think they've produced a filter that is no better than anyone else's. It's worse than some competitors in certain cases.
On a much more positive note the EHEIM skim350 is a superb product. EHEIM led the way in creating surface skimmers for the inlets of their external filters and they did it decades ago. This time they've turned the miniUP upside down, fitted a surface skimmer to it and the result is a really well working, really cost-effective surface skimmer that is perfect for planted tanks and marine nano tanks alike, both of which are negatively affected by surface film.
Note that this is not a protein skimmer though marine keepers, and although it will draw protein off the surface of saltwater really effectively, it will just shoot it back into the tank — unlike a protein skimmer that traps and removes it.
The miniFLAT (pictured above) just does what it does. The miniUP is OK but could be much better, and I feel it's not worthy of the highly esteemed EHEIM brand. It's clearly a model where value matters, so why not rebrand it as such?
The FLAT is more for the terrapin and amphibian market. That leaves the skim350, which is not only really practical it's great value — I love it!
They all use the same powerhead though, and it did occur to me that all three plastic bodies could be placed into the same package, meaning that you get three filters in one and loads of applications.
Now that would be EHEIM innovation, but for now the only one I'll be buying and backing is the skim350.
Price: miniUP £21.08, miniFLAT £21.08, and skim350 £26.35. More info from J and K Aquatics.

It's still quite hard for the people to associate ZTE with flagship devices. But, still, it's totally wrong to say that the products from ZTE can't fulfill the demands of the market. The latest product surely gives a shock to the global market. Meet with ZTE ZMAX Pro. This smartphone was just launched to the market a few months ago and it created a ruckus ever since. What's so special about this smartphone? Let's check it out.
The Mind-blowing Price
To tell you the truth, the most impressive fact about this smartphone is related to ZTE ZMAX Pro Metropcs price. By considering that the spec of this smartphone is rather mid-rage, it's only normal for the market to be so excited when it knows that the phone is offered at $99! Yes, it's not even $100! Without any doubt, that price alone is capable of blowing us away. But then again, such price is totally nothing if the phone is not good. However, remember that the phone has mid-range specifications. So, it should be good enough. What's there to be offered by ZTE then?
The Appeal
Well, it's totally understandable if the phone uses plastic to cover its whole design by considering the price. However, what's great is that it doesn't feel like plastic at all. It doesn't even look like plastic either! The inclusion of matte panel which can be found in the back area of the phone is definitely awesome! The fact that this phone has already used 6 inch screen is also fabulous!
Again, when learning about further specifications and performance of this phone, ZTE ZMAX Pro Metropcs price doesn't seem to be logical. With less than $100, you can get a smartphone that uses Android Marshmallow 6.0.1 to boost the performance. Then, it has got Snapdragon 617 processor combined with 2GB of RAM. What about the storage? It reaches 32GB! What a fabulous combination to blow your mind away.
Ah, this aspect is somehow quite intriguing for some people. The question of: "Metro PCS uses what network" is rather sensitive because not all people are keen on the fact that it uses Metro network. Yes, there's no need to cover it up but in some areas, Metro isn't the best network. But, surely, it is improving. Not to mention, you can actually unlock this device which means you can change into the other network after three months of usage. After all, this phone isn't a bad investment, right?

According to the Jakarta Globe, the Indonesian Ministry of Public Works has threatened to nullify the contracts of eight contracting companies responsible for building toll road concessions in the country. It has been reported that the projects have been idle since 2005, as the contracting companies argue that the projects have become too costly due to material costs and land acquisition issues.
The problem appears to be that the companies underbid for the contracts or did not adequately take out hedges or insurance against price inflation of inputs. Given the Indonesian Government's strong interest in developing intercity highways through toll financing, it is likely the projects will proceed, but that procurement processes will be significantly strengthened. Due diligence of financing requirements and tighter legal commitments for progress towards milestones would seem to be some of the measures that the Indonesian Government might take for future such contracts.


text: I have a problem and that is if i choose system server config without saving anything just looking, my /etc/network/interfaces gets overwritten with wrong values. How do i stop this from happening. I understand i have to set off a value in somekind of config.inc.php file but what is the correct config.inc.php file and what value do i need to turn off? Normaly it wouldn't be a problem but i only use the second networkcard in my server. If ispconfig 3 changes the interface, it changes the values to the wrong network card and i loose every possible connection to the server. server details: Debian Squeeze/Sid ispconfig 220.127.116.11 Thanks in advance for the support.

Tension in Europe
Political tension in Europe is increasing. The diplomatic relations between two of the most influential countries within the European Union, (France and the United Kingdom) have reached a deadlock. There are many causes that led to that, but the reason is mainly related to the issue of immigrants from the East, or to the Eurosceptic views within the UK civil society, which are gaining more and more ground.
According to Reuters, the disagreement between London and Paris rests upon the demand of the London administration to have the right to veto regarding the European Union's monetary policy. This request is formulated given that London has already been granted many favors by Brussels. Let us not forget that the United Kingdom kept the national currency, the pound sterling, whereas states with equally powerful economies such as Germany or France renounced the Deutsche mark (which at that moment was regarded as tragic by the German people), and the French franc respectively.
The French President Francois Hollande was referring to this very fact. Although London's claims may seem exaggerated, Cameron has some leverage in the negotiation. A referendum is to be organized next year in the UK whereby citizens are to express their agreement or disagreement with the UK remaining in the European Union. Considering the fact that many citizens already request a separation from Brussels, David Cameron's demand, although far-out, seems less tragic.
Potential exit for the UK
A potential exit of the United Kingdom from the European Union would immensely destabilize the European economy which is already struggling to keep afloat. There would be significant losses on the British side. The European Union represents the main export market for the British economy, but also an area with cheaper workforce brought from Central and Eastern Europe (the Czech Republic, Slovakia, Poland, and Romania). Still, many citizens in the UK are willing to cast aside the common European citizenship of their country.
The reason why Cameron counts to such an extent on the dissolution of the European Union is somehow understandable.
This deadlock between London and Paris may be the beginning of the swan song of the European Union in its current form. Moreover, the international scene is rather fraught with other unknown turns, of which Russia's ascension stands as a genuine threat.
