Even though Arsene Wenger will again rotate his squad, the Gunners are odds-on favourites to easily dispose of the Tractor Boys - who yesterday appointed Paul Jewell as successor to Roy Keane - and reach Wembley next month as they look to secure a first piece of silverware in six seasons.
However, Fabregas, who came off the bench on Saturday to net a last-minute penalty against Leeds which kept Arsenal in the FA Cup, is in no doubt the Suffolk club will be "motivated" to cause a major upset.
"Although Ipswich are a Championship team, that can make them even more dangerous," the Spain international said.
"Their motivation will be very high - these will be the biggest two games of their year. They will be desperate to beat us, they will want to show their strengths, and their motivation will be as high as possible.
"If we want to get through we will have to match that motivation, if not raise it further."
Fabregas could again be on the bench tomorrow night, with Wenger keen to keep his players fresh for the challenges ahead, which continue to come thick and fast - with a trip to relegation-battlers West Ham on Saturday evening swiftly followed by their FA Cup third-round replay at Elland Road.

When it comes to PPC ads, rather than trying to reinvent the wheel, it's useful to look at what's already working in other channels and test to see if it would work for PPC ads as well. And usually it does!
A recent memo by Roy Williams got me thinking…
"Few techniques in communication are as powerful – or as often overlooked – as personification: ascribing human characteristics to inanimate objects. It turns dead corporate brands into living persons. Who are the Keebler Elves, the Jolly Green Giant, Mr. Clean and Ronald McDonald if not personifications of the brands they represent?
… [But] Personification is much bigger and more elegant than mere mascots and logos. When conceived in words, lively words, personification summons the imagination and triggers the emotions…
…We gaze longer at pictures that have people in them than at pictures that have no people. I believe the same is true of words. We pay more attention to words that tell us of people than to words that don't."
Personification works wonders in mass media advertising, sales letters, and poetry. But can it work in PPC Ads too?
Apparently it does. Consider the PPC ad test below:
You'll notice that the losing ad promises pretty much the same thing as the winning ad — the ability to search through thousands of homes in a given area, with any searched on area being dynamically inserted into the ad. In fact, the losing ad actually promises more than the losing ad by telling the searcher that photos, prices, tours, and maps are available for each home.
So what does the winning ad have going for it that would produce a 52 percent increase in CTR?
Mostly personification.
Notice that the winning ad says that "1,000+ Homes Are Waiting for you in [location]." The homes have been personified, given the human characteristic of waiting. Nice!
But to be fair, that's not ALL the winning ad does. It also bumps the inventory claim of "1000's" into the headline. Of course, it does this at the sacrifice of keyword match-up, and decreased keyword match-up in the headline is usually associated with lower rather than higher performance. So that one is kind of a wash in my book.
Finally, the winning ad promises that the searcher will be able to look at and compare those 1000+ houses "for Free." And that is a plus, as some listings charge for admittance.
But emphasizing "free" is an offer-dependent technique. So if you're able to plug that in your ad, by all means test it. But not everyone can try that in their PPC ads. Moreover, "free" is no guarantee of increased performance either, because free can still feel risky.
So go ahead and test a more personified version of your PPC ads. And no matter how "un-personifiable" you think your product or service may be, just remember that in the example above, it was done for a bunch of bricks.

The insurer RSA suspended its three top executives in Ireland last night pending an investigation into "issues" in its claims and finance divisions which will cost the group £70m. It was the second profits warning in a week and could pile pressure on the company's under-fire chief executive, Simon Lee, to quit.
The announcement was made yesterday evening when most City employees had left their desks for the weekend, angering investors. RSA's shares, already under great pressure following a turbulent year for the company, are likely to fall heavily on Monday morning when stock market trading resumes.
After taxes, the Irish crisis will strip some £50m from the expected £330m full-year profit for the group, which is valued at £4.4bn on the stock market.
Philip Smith, the chief executive of RSA Ireland, the chief finance officer Rory O'Connor and claims director Peter Burke were all suspended following a board meeting yesterday afternoon in Dublin. They have been ordered to stay at home during the investigation.
RSA has had to inject more capital into the Irish operations because of the affair. It said no customers would be affected.
The company had referred briefly to an ongoing review of "bodily injury claims" in Ireland when it issued its weather-related profit warning earlier in the week. But it said the three suspensions were not connected with that. However, it declined to comment on what it said was an ongoing investigation.
RSA conducts only general insurance in Ireland, mostly offering home and motor cover.
The latest crisis, particularly in its timing, will only damage the insurer's reputation further among investors. Even before this eventful week, Mr Lee had been in danger of losing the confidence of shareholders after he slashed the dividend by a third in February.
A spokesman said the issues had been uncovered by the company's own internal audit process. He said the relevant authorities had been informed in Ireland but would not comment on whether the police were involved.
During the inquiry, UK and Western Europe chief executive Adrian Brown and claims director David Pitt will take over the Irish operations, while Chris Rash, group chief accountant, will become acting chief finance officer.
The extent of RSA's weather warning earlier in the week surprised investors because rival companies and the Association of British Insurers had played down the damage. However, Mr Lee said RSA was hit hard because it was a big player in Scandinavia, where weather damage was particularly bad. The company has warned it will probably have to increase its reserves to cover the weather damage. So far this year RSA's shares have fallen 5 per cent despite the wider rise in the FTSE-100 Index.
RSA had a turnover of €429m (£358m) in its Irish division last year, representing 4 per cent of group revenues. The group's other big markets are the UK, Italy, Scandinavia and Canada.

"Humanism involves far more than the negation of supernaturalism. It requires an affirmative philosophy... translated into a life devoted to one's own improvement and the service of all mankind." Corliss Lamont "The beginning of wisdom is the awareness that there is insufficient evidence that a god or gods have created us and the recognition that we are responsible in part for our own destiny. Human beings can achieve this good life, but it is by the cultivation of the virtues of intelligence and courage, not faith and obedience, that we will most likely be able to do so." Paul Kurtz Humanism Quotes
"There is no evidence that God ever interfered in the affairs of man. The hand of earth is stretched uselessly towards heaven. From the clouds there comes no help." Robert Ingersoll Humanism Quotes & Background In 1928 the Humanist Fellowship was organized, mostly of students at the University of Chicago. In April 1928 the fellowship published a journal entitled the New Humanist. A few years later, in 1933, some members of the fellowship suggested that Roy Wood Sellers (a philosophy professor at the University of Michigan) draft "A Humanist Manifesto." The Manifesto contained fifteen short theses.
Those who signed the Manifesto (total of 34 signers): Mostly professors, writers/newspaper editors, and ministers The most renowned signer was John Dewey, philosophy professor at Columbia University. Other professors were from Harvard Divinity School; a comparative religions professor at the University of Chicago; a philosophy professor at Cornell; a philosophy professor at Columbia. One Reformed Jewish Rabbi. Most of the ministers (15 UU ministers) who signed had a Unitarian affiliation. Humanism Who Signed It?
"Religions the world over are under the necessity of coming to terms with new conditions created by a vastly increased knowledge and experience. In every field of human activity, the vital movement is now in the direction of a candid and explicit humanism." Humanism Excerpts from Manifesto I MEANING? Times have changed, we are much smarter now, everyone now must see the need to revamp religion for the purpose of bettering human earthly life.
"Today man's larger understanding of the universe, his scientific achievements, and deeper appreciation of brotherhood, have created a situation which requires a new statement of the means and purposes of religion. Such a vital, fearless, and frank religion capable of furnishing adequate social goals and personal satisfactions may appear to many people as a complete break with the past." Humanism Excerpts from Manifesto I MEANING? Man is so much smarter now, we must change the purpose of religion and focus on THIS life ("social and personal satisfaction"). This will be very different from previous religions!
"While this age does owe a vast debt to the traditional religions, it is none the less obvious that any religion that can hope to be a synthesizing and dynamic force for today must be shaped for the needs of this age. To establish such a religion is a major necessity of the present. It is a responsibility which rests upon this generation. We therefore affirm the following:" Humanism Excerpts from Manifesto I MEANING? The only useful religion is one that helps people improve THIS life.
1.Religious humanists regard the universe as self-existing and not created. a) If the universe is eternal, there is no need for a Creator or a First Cause. If there is no God, then man is left to his own devices… (Psalm 14:1). b) Nature demands a cause (Gen. 1:1; Rom. 1:20)! c) Design necessarily implies a Designer (Heb. 3:4)! Humanism First Manifesto's Fifteen Points
2.Humanism believes that man is part of nature and that he has emerged as the result of a continuous process. a) Rejects "special creation of humans", affirms theory of evolution. b) Nature DENIES evolution… 1. Missing links… still missing. 2. Irreducible complexity at all levels of biology. 3. Law of Biogenesis, Law of Entropy, Etc.! Humanism First Manifesto's Fifteen Points
3.Holding an organic view of life, humanists find that the traditional dualism of mind and body must be rejected. a) Aim? Deny belief in immortality. Humanists believe that consciousness is a function of the brain; when the brain is destroyed, consciousness is also, so it is impossible for consciousness to continue beyond the death of the organism. b) Man is not just flesh (Gen. 1:26; Mt. 10:28). Humanism First Manifesto's Fifteen Points
4.Humanism recognizes that man's religious culture and civilization, as clearly depicted by anthropology and history, are the product of a gradual development due to the interaction with his natural environment and with his social heritage. The individual born into a particular culture is largely molded by that culture. a) Meaning? When social situations change, religion evolves accordingly… b) Jeroboam (1 Kings 12:25-33; 13:1-2; John 4:24; Rev. 22:18-19). Humanism First Manifesto's Fifteen Points
5.Humanism asserts that the nature of the universe depicted by modern science makes unacceptable any supernatural or cosmic guarantees of human values... Religion must formulate its hopes and plans in light of the scientific spirit and method. a) Denies revelation, affirms only science. b) Makes values subjective and only for earthly benefit. c) Natural man vs spiritual man (1 Cor. 2:14; John 3:3-6; John 12:48). Humanism First Manifesto's Fifteen Points
6.We are convinced that the time has passed for the theism, deism, modernism and the several varieties of "new thought." a) Meaning? Christianity has changed so much that it is too misunderstood and corrupt. Solution? Discard the old faith entirely and developing a new one based on a naturalistic understanding of the universe! b) Professing wisdom, the became fools (Romans 1:21-22)! Humanism First Manifesto's Fifteen Points
7.Religion consists of those actions, purposes, and experiences which are humanly significant. Nothing human is alien to the religious. It includes labor, art, science, philosophy, love, friendship, recreation – all that is in its degree expressive of intelligently satisfying human living. The distinction between the sacred and the secular can no longer be maintained. a) Meaning? Nothing sacred! Nothing more important than man (1 Cor. 11:34)! b) First shall be last… (Luke 13:30). Humanism First Manifesto's Fifteen Points
8.Religious Humanism considers the complete realization of human personality to be the end of man's life and seeks its development and fulfillment in the here and now. This is the explanation of the humanist's social passion. a) "Self realization" & earthly fulfillment… only. b) "But God said unto him, Thou foolish one, this night is thy soul required of thee… So is he that layeth up treasure for himself, and is not rich toward God." (Luke 12:20-21). Humanism First Manifesto's Fifteen Points
9.In place of the old attitudes involved in worship and prayer the humanist finds his religious emotions expressed in a heightened sense of personal life and in a cooperative effort to promote social well- being. 10. It follows that there will be no uniquely religious emotions and attitudes of the kind hitherto associated with belief in the Supernatural. a) Teaches people to be blind and senseless to spiritual truth (2 Pet. 1:9). b) Teaches people to have hardened hearts (Heb. 3:13). Humanism First Manifesto's Fifteen Points
The next points state social goals… 11.Man will learn to face the crises of life in terms of his knowledge of their naturalness and probability. 12.Believing that religion must work increasingly for joy in living, religious humanists aim to foster the creative in man and to encourage achievements that add to the satisfactions of life. 13.Religious humanism maintains that all association and institutions exist for the fulfillment of human life. Humanism First Manifesto's Fifteen Points
14. The humanists are firmly convinced that existing acquisitive and profit-motivated society has shown itself to be inadequate and that radical change in methods, controls, and motives must be instituted. A socialized and cooperative economic order must be established to the end that the equitable distribution of the means of life be possible. The goal of humanism is a free and universal society in which people voluntarily and intelligently cooperate for the common good. Humanists demand a shared life in a shared world. (Anti-private property pro-socialism/communism "for the good of society") (cp. Acts 5:4) Humanism First Manifesto's Fifteen Points
15.We assert that humanism will: (a) Affirm life rather than deny it; (b) Seek to elicit the possibilities of life, not flee from it; (c) Endeavor to establish the conditions of a satisfactory life for all, not just a few. By this positive morale and intention humanism will be guided, and from this perspective and alignment the techniques and efforts of humanism will flow. a) Humanism (Pro-abortion! Anti-spiritual life). b) We are made to live for God (Rom. 14:7-8). Humanism First Manifesto's Fifteen Points
Humanist Manifesto I (1933) Humanism First Manifesto's Fifteen Points Humanist Manifesto II (1973) "No deity will save us; we must save ourselves," Humanist Manifesto III (2003) A Secular Humanist Declaration (1980) Humanist Manifesto 2000: A Call for New Planetary Humanism (book by Paul Kurtz) Many Humanist Organizations… Many Individuals in Religion, Education, Media, Authors… spreading their influence. Some would rather there be no God… Would We?
THE QUESTION: "What shall we do?" THE ANSWER: "Repent, and be baptized… for the remission of sins…" (Acts 2:38) Did Peter tell them to do something BECAUSE OF or IN ORDER TO what they were asking? About what? Their SINS (Ax 2:23, 37) !

Hey Ladies! Its been awhile since I've done my hair at home and I'm wondering what some of the best at home hair dyes are. I've read different reviews on here and I'd like to get some more opinions. I'm looking for permanent colour that is vibrant and long lasting. I'm not concerned about grey coverage, luckily I don't have to worry about that yet ;)
|Hair Dye on Apr 01, 2015 @ 10:31 pm
For me personally I love Vidal Sassoon Salonist Permanent Hair Color it done in two easy steps and in my opinion it really does work as well as if you went to a salon. Have a great night SnowWhite.
|I've heard good things about that dye on Apr 01, 2015 @ 10:58 pm
I'm interested in trying that dye. I've heard good things about it and they have such lovely, vibrant shades. It's definitely a major contender for me right now. Thanks for the input! Hope you're having a great night :)
|Hair Dye on Apr 02, 2015 @ 12:46 am
Your welcome it is my favorite but I also like John Freida's Precision Foam in Hair Color. Very easy to apply and no mess or drips with both of them. Hope you turn hair turns out nice.
|Hair at home on Apr 02, 2015 @ 02:17 am
I love love love L'Oreal Couleur Experte. Base color is lovely, leaves hair soft & shiny and the hilights just rock. Only thing w hilights is they don't give a lot. I have super thick hair so used 2 packets but it depends on your hair & how many hilights you want. Before I ysed it I read a lot of reviews and most women used cap for hilights, getting hubby to do back. I tried freehand w tool they give u but quickly realized it would b a disaster. My BF is a frustrated artist ;) so the back of my hair looks amazing. Lol. Also, hilights r soft, not that bleachy color. I'd been spending a fortune at salon for yrs and when between jobs decided to try this, scared sh-tless! I am now furious w myself for not doing it sooner. Not only am I saving a ton but everyone tells me my hair looks better now than when I was spending a queen's ransom! By the way I am getting grey and this covers beautifully. Just love it.
|Great recommendations on Apr 02, 2015 @ 09:22 am
Christine I was also interested in the John Freida line as well. I've never used a foam before. I feel like it would be a nice change from the gel type, probably neater too.
JudesW, I'm not so sure about the highlight part. The last time I did the cap and hook it was a disaster lol. I had my mom help me because my BF wasn't too comfortable doing it. We did far too many and they turned out really bleachy looking. I ended up having to low light to compensate. I have medium brown hair (natural) and I find that any highlights I've attempted at home turn out looking bad. Way too light and unnatural. I really appreciate your suggestion though, :)
|Hair Dye on Apr 02, 2015 @ 11:59 am
Hello SnowWhite,you were asking about a good Hair Dye and the best for you to purchase is ,John Frieda.Their hair dye is down right fantastic!!!!!I just love,love it!!!.Their hair dye is like no other I've ever tried ,in fact it's the only Hair Dye I will use or ever use.It leaves your hair with a beautiful shine and your hair is soft and manageable when done.Some dyes leaves your hair dried out or feeling corky,that's my opinion but,John Frieda is nothing but the best with complete grey coverage(in case).I love all their hair products and they are always giving out Hair Dye to anyone who signs up there.I was just named John Frieda Brand Ambassador.It was because I love and use their products all the time.Go to John Frieda.ca and check it out yourself.Hope this helps.
|vidal sassoon on Apr 02, 2015 @ 12:12 pm
5VR has been my signature colour (every 3 weeks) since the fall of 2014. I am in LOVE with this colour, all except for the fact that my grey hair makes it so that I need to colour so often.
I'm also in need of some suggestions. The colour (after 5 weeks) is now faded, a little red in colour (I have some actual red in there somewhere from previous dyes) and after 5 weeks, a lot of grey roots.
I want to go back to a lighter brown, but I'm not sure which colour/brand would offer an easier transition...any advice?
|Beauty Outlets on Apr 03, 2015 @ 06:52 pm
You'll save a bit of money and get a way better quality colour by going to a beauty outlet and buying salon grade colour and peroxide and mixing it yourself at home. the only thing missing from your drug store kit is the bottle. I've gone to Williams Beauty Outlet in the west end of toronto (dundas and roncesvalles) for years. I get a product from France called Keune and whatever peroxide they have. This works provided you don't want to extremely lighten as that involves bleach which requires a pro, but I end up with a great dye, decently conditioned hair afterwards (I have really normal hair) and I can afford to dye it every 4 or 5 weeks when the roots start to show. the last time i used a drug store brand it smelled horrible, stripped my hair for a week and didn't last. reds tend to fade the fastest, there's no real getting around that but i'm also not gray so it fades back to a brown, which is what i am naturally.
there are plenty of beauty supply options around the city. you'll just need to find one that suits you and your hair type.
|Beauty supply outlets on Apr 04, 2015 @ 08:22 am
Tanyarphillips, thats a really neat idea! I've never even considered that route before. Is it really as simple as mixing it and applying? Are there typically instructions on the bottles or do you need insider knowledge?
I have really fine, thin hair. I am afraid of frying it, been there done that. I have medium brown hair and either want to go 2 shades darker or red.
|it's exactly the same, not certain if there's instructions on Apr 04, 2015 @ 11:34 am
mix equal parts of colour to peroxide formula, and apply. depending on how your hair takes colour will depend on the depth you get. i have fine hair but lots of it, so i don't notice any discernible difference when i colour and all colour temporarily swells the hair shaft. there's probably instructions online somewhere.
i started this because a friend was a hair dresser and suggested it and i find the product is way easier on my hair than anything from the drug store ever was, and i've been doing this for about 15-18 years. i find using a leave in conditioner right after dying also helps and it's the only time i use such a thing. good luck.
this is the product I use http://www.keune.com/na/Product-Finder/Product-Information/prodid/646/rtid/1655/tagids/474#.VSAD_JPAGM8, like i said I get it in Toronto at Williams Beauty Supply. They do have a red line but i find it tends to bleed out a lot and went back to their usual red line and was way happier. There's also a trick of 'grounding' the colour by using the base colour for whatever line you're using. For example each set of shades is represented by a number, I tend to use 4, 5 and sometimes 6's as a darker red head, so to ground the colour I'll mix in about a 1/4 of a 5 if i'm using a 5.67 as an example. hope that helps.

1. Being authors on a blog gives students the opportunity to share their thoughts with you, their classmates, and their parents on a longer timeline than is typically feasible during a school day. Not every student is going to be able to quickly articulate his or her thoughts during a face-to-face conversation with his or her teacher. Having a place to write down his or her expanded thoughts after a conversation is one of the best benefits of inviting students to be authors on a blog.
2. Parents are privy to the comments and question that their children raise in regards to school. Parents often complain that their kids come home from school and say,"nothing" in response to the question, "what did you do in school today?"
3. Authoring a classroom blog can be a great way to create a record of what you and your students do in your classroom. By the end of the school year it can be hard to recall what you did in which week earlier in the school year. The blog's archive makes it easy to look back at the year.
4. Authoring a classroom blog provides students with a real-world audience for their work. Connect with another classroom or two to become blogging buddies. Students in each class then have an audience for their work that extends beyond the typical confines of a paper-based writing assignment or face-to-face classroom conversation.
5. A classroom blog can provide parents and students with a calendar of upcoming events and assignments.

There is an increase in the number Sri Lankan refugees returning home from camps in Tamil Nadu, latest statistics with the United Nations (UN) has shown.
This is being seen as the result of the civil unrest having ended 17 months ago and no violent incident being reported since then.
Earlier this week, a group of 67 people who had escaped from north-eastern Sri Lanka as fighting escalated between Tamil separatists and government troops returned home with the help of the UN High Commissioner of Refugees (UNHCR).
"This group ... arrived two days ago. They had approached the UNHCR India for help. We received them at the airport and gave them a small travel grant," an UNHCR official said.
According to Indian government statistics, till July 2010, there were 71,654 Lankan refugees in India living in 112 camps and 32,467 living outside.

Britto Is Hosting an Art Basel Fundraiser for Jeb Bush
Tons of exclusive parties will take place in Miami this week, but not all will have New York hipsters trying to crash them. Take, for example, a fundraiser for Jeb Bush, Miami's now somewhat embarrassing presidential candidate, hosted by Romero Britto, Miami's now somewhat embarrassing celebrity pop "artist."
Yes, because the combined wealth of Art Basel Miami Beach attendees is more than the GDP of several developing nations, presidential candidates will be in town to try to collect a bit of that wealth for their campaign coffers. Democrats Hillary Clinton and Martin O'Malley will also be in town hunting for cash, but Bush's bash is perhaps the most notable.
Dubbed "Pop Art, Politics & Jeb" (no exclamation point), the Saturday party will also see the official unveiling of a Britto-designed poster of Bush, though the design has already been leaked to the media. We guess noted painter George W. Bush was too busy doing self-portraits to help his brother.
This Friday night, the party will be preceded by a $1,000-per-person fundraiser at a private home on Key Biscayne. That location is quite removed from the Basel madness, but we're sure the attendees can afford the Uber fare.
Bush and Britto actually go way back, which is unsurprising because Britto likes to cozy up to Miami-Dade's political elite. A Britto painting is said to hang in Bush's office at the Biltmore Hotel in Coral Gables, and Britto and the Bush family once collaborated on a painting to promote childhood literacy.

Photo by Michele Eve Sandberg
Bush's wife, Columba, is also a close personal friend of the artist. According to the New York Times, she often pops by his studios to create some paintings of her own.
Incidentally, Britto also has a history with Donald Trump. In an early season of The Apprentice, contestants were tasked with trying to sell limited-edition Britto prints.
Bush won't be the only politician in town, however.
Clinton will fly into Miami tonight before the fair's official opening. She'll hit up two fundraisers: a $1,000-per-person shindig in Miami Beach and a $500 event in Pinecrest. Though, neither event is specifically aimed at the art crowd. Indeed, the Miami Beach event is targeted at LGBT professionals.

Aussie Falls to Weakest in Almost 3 Years Before U.S. Jobs DataKristine Aquino
Australia's dollar slid to the lowest in almost three years before U.S. jobs data that may add to the case for a reduction in Federal Reserve stimulus, which has supported higher-yielding assets globally.
The Aussie remained lower after a four-day drop before Reserve Bank of Australia officials gather for a monetary policy decision next week, when they are expected to lower borrowing costs. The currency held losses after the government boosted its budget deficit forecast for the current fiscal year. New Zealand's kiwi rose, paring a weekly decline that's the biggest in six weeks, as Asian stocks rose.
"The risk is that Aussie and kiwi do weaken on the back of a stronger payrolls number," said Peter Dragicevich, a Sydney-based currency economist at Commonwealth Bank of Australia, the nation's largest lender. Improving U.S. data "would just reinforce expectations that the Fed will begin to taper asset purchases over the next few months."
The Australian dollar lost 0.1 percent to 89.16 U.S. cents as of 4:45 p.m. in Sydney and is set for a 3.7 percent slide this week. It touched 88.89 cents, the weakest since August 2010. The kiwi was little changed at 78.94 U.S. cents. It's headed for a 2.4 percent, five-day drop, the most since the period through June 21.
Australia's 10-year government bond yield climbed 13 basis points, or 0.1 percentage point, to 3.79 percent. New Zealand's two-year swap rate, a fixed payment made to receive floating rates, rose 3 1/2 basis points to 3.39 percent.
Jobs Added
The U.S. Labor department will probably say today employers added 185,000 jobs last month after boosting positions by 195,000 in June, according the median estimate of economists surveyed by Bloomberg News. The unemployment rate may have fallen to 7.5 percent, which would be the lowest since April.
Federal Reserve Chairman Ben S. Bernanke will trim the central bank's monthly purchases of Treasury and mortgage debt to $65 billion in September, from the current pace of $85 billion, according to half of 54 economists polled by Bloomberg from July 18-22.
The Aussie has lost almost 12 percent in the past three months, the worst performance among 10 developed-nation currencies tracked by Bloomberg Correlation-Weighted Indexes. The kiwi had the second-biggest decline, falling 4.9 percent.
The RBA will probably cut Australia's overnight cash rate target by 25 basis points to 2.5 percent at a policy meeting on Aug. 6, according to 26 of 27 economists surveyed by Bloomberg News. Traders agree, seeing a 94 percent chance of a reduction, according to interest-rate swaps data compiled by Bloomberg.
The Australian government predicts the budget deficit for the year ending June 30, 2014 will be A$30.1 billion ($26.8 billion), compared with a previous forecast for an A$18 billion shortfall, it said in a statement released today.

So there is a table and 4 chairs, with mini refrigerate, toaster oven, microwave, coffee pot, dishes, cups and silverware.( No oven, pots or pans.) And you are invited into our 180 yr. old farm home for breakfast. Because your the only breakfast guests here. Feel free to come for breakfast in your pajama pants or dressed for the day. For an OVER THE TOP full farm breakfast each morning. Or a breakfast can be delivered to the 'Bunkhouse door.' Because this is a FARM stay and not a restaurant there is only one type breakfast served daily. Your outside living space includes a patio table, 6 chairs, a table umbrella and gas grill. Sit on your wood glider and watch the sun go down over the water. Relax by or in the 4ft above ground pool, fish from the pier or drive the John Deere Gator to either of the 2- 10 acre woods. Walk or bike on the safe, mowed paths. Visit the 2 primitive cabins as well ( if there are no campers). Look for the deer, wild turkeys, Sand Hill Cranes, Osprey's, Owls and more.

VRBO Things To Do
The closest town to Mirror Lake is Rome City. Looking for things to do visit the historical site Gene Stratton-Porter. Tour her cabin and walk though her flower gardens and many trails in the wooded property. Then visit the small museum based on Gene Stratton-Porter's life. gene's home is found on the shores of Sylvan Lake.
Other water activities are take a day and canoe the Pigeon river in Mongo. Mango is found about 25 minutes from Mirror Lake. You can rent canoes, single or double kayaks. You can pick trips as little as 4 miles or up to 13 miles. The Trading Post works very hard at keeping the river clear. To make your trip easy canoeing.
At Mirror Lake you can rent our mini pontoon, fishing boat, canoe or double kayak, to use at our lake.Or bring your own boat and fish or ski over 30 lakes within minutes from Mirror Lake B&B. Sylvan Lake is one of the largest lakes in the area and is just a few miles down the road from Mirror Lake B&B.
Maple Lane Wildlife Park is located just west of Topeka minutes from Mirror Lake B&B. It is owned and operated by an Amish family. You can pay a little extra and take a camel or pony ride. You get a wagon ride and can feed the goats as you go. See their many lions, tigers and bears and more. Enjoy the playground and then have your packed lunch in the same area.
Shipshewana, where do we begin? You can spend hours or days in this little Amish town. First is the Flea Market on Tuesday and Wednesdays. Pay a small fee to park and shop over 1,200 booths. From Amish made products, sweatshirts, crafts, gifts and jewelry to things made in China. Rows of fresh produce, bushes and plants as well. Opens mid May and goes till the end of October. Booths do start to dwindle late September. There is multiples food booths on the grounds. Or you can go to the Auction Restaurant ( heated and air condition)
Every Wednesday in the large pole barn (on the flea Market property) there is an auction. Starts at 9:00 ends around 1:30. There are about 8 auctioneers all auctioning in different areas. There could be anything there. If you like auctions this is a MUST!
I have many guests that enjoy the Buggy Lane (found in the alley) not the fancy horse and wagon at the Blue Gate. A real Amish buggy or wagon takes you to the Mennonite Dairy farm. Here you watch them milk cows by hand. You can milk too if you like. Help feed pig, pet the kittens and take care of all the other farm animals. You can enjoy a real Amish dinner at a nieces home nearby. Then they delivery you back to town in a van. Dinner requires a week reservation.
Uptown has small town CHARM. Many store that used to be homes line the street for hours of shopping. You can spend hours in the Old Davis Hotel now called the Davis Mercantile. Lollies is a quilter's dream with bolts and bolts of material and patterns for your quilting projects. Try a Jo - Jo pretzel.
Owner info
About the owner: We have lived on the farm for over 24 years. We have 3 grown children & 3 grand daughters. That all still live near the area. I come from a large family of 10 siblings and over 40 nieces and nephews. And now over 30 great nieces & nephews (and that is just my side). I host most of the family gatherings. When my kids left the house I missed people coming and going. This has been a dream and a thought of mine for over 15 years. So with the help of my husband in 2006 we remodeled a 2 car garage. And converted it into our Bed and Breakfast we call the 'Bunkhouse'. Giving you all the amenities but keeping it rustic, cabin-like & simple. When we are not working around the property. We enjoy riding our horses, our pool, golfing, fishing, our cabins for campfires and camping. We also enjoy using the river on our property for canoeing and Kayaking. I used to think no would ever come all the way out here to stay. Then I would ride my horse in the trails in the woods and come back to the house. Looking over all the property then I would think. It's to pretty not to share. A life style almost forgotten. Time for us all to sit back & relax & enjoy life for awhile.
Why the Owner Chose Elkhart Township, IN, USA:
When life hands you lemons you make Lemon-aid. My first husband died when we were 28. We were living outside Kendallville. In a new home in the woods. Jed & his wife had bought 6 acres, the home and portion of the lake in 1988. Just a few months later, she too passed away too at the age of 28. 6 years later in 1994 we married and I & my 7 year old son moved to Mirror Lake. Where we joined Jed (my husband) and his daughter of 10 and son of 7. We fell in love with the property. I too grow up on a family farm in the country and loved it. My husband was a dairy farmer. He milked cows on the home place just a few miles from this home. We have now purchased the entire farm of 175 acres, the family cemetery, the south half of the private lake and the 15 acre woods across the lake. For 17 years of our marriage he milked cows and was gone alot and worked very long hours. 4 years ago he sold the cows and now is only a grain farmer. And we have a lot more time to enjoy our property. What isn't there to LOVE?? Fresh air, green grass, green growing crops, blue sky, beautiful water,the Little Elkhart River, horse trails to ride or walk on. Peace, privacy, nature in all directions and FISH too. WHAT'S NOT TO LOVE??
The Unique Benefits at this Cabin:
The main house dates to the early 1830's. There is a family cemetery with 49 graves on the farm, just south of the horse barn. We have an Osprey (bird) nest in our power line tower. There are only 5 nests in Noble Co. and 3 in LaGrange Co. AND WE HAVE ONE. This is their 5th year returning. It is peaceful and private. You are the only guests on the main property (there maybe campers in the woods at the 2 campsites.) A place to reconnect to each other or be on a vacation with another couple and NOT be surrounded by other people. Again did I say PRIVATE AND PEACEFUL!!
