Portions of the new edition of NFPA 921 Guide for Fire and Explosion Investigations is being discussed and taught at the National Association of Fire Investigation (NAFI) 2014 International Fire, Arson, and Explosion Investigation Training Program at Eastern Kentucky University, Richmond Kentucky. I am attending the training program to answer any questions on the 2014 edition of 921 and 1033 Standard for Professional Qualifications for Fire Investigators. The NAFI program is being attended by Public and Private Fire investigators, Engineers, Attorneys and Students from Eastern Kentucky University. The program started with the Randy Watson from SEA Limited and Chair of the 921 Technical Committee discussing Methodology of Fire Investigation according to the 2014 edition of NFPA 921. EKU Professor Greg Gorbett is teaching Fire Pattern Analysis and Fire Dynamics.
The overall opinion from conference attendees on the new colorized edition of 921 has been very positive and some stated this was a long time coming and the color photographs will enhance the use of NFPA 921.

Board game cafe set to open on Huntington's Main Street
There's something different about sitting down to play a board game. Unlike a video game or a movie, a board game with all its little cards and pictures is abstracted. When several people sit around a table with cards stacked in front of them, calculating their next move, they are all transported somewhere different, from haunted houses and mercantile guild halls to the legendary halls of King Arthur's court.
It's an experience that several Huntington locals are hoping to bring to Huntington village with the Main St. Board Game Café. Owner Neil Goldberg said he hopes to start construction on the board game parlor and cafe this holiday season.
"I have two kids, 9 and 6 [years old], and they love what their friends love," he said. "They play video games and they'll play it until I tell them to stop. I want them to have something where they're not staring at a screen — where you talk, think, plan and interact with something that has value."
Goldberg said the cafe will have a selection of close to 300 games on hand. He plans to have
a selection of classics, like the popular Settlers of Catan board game and following series,
where players gather resources in an effort to colonize an island. The owner also wants to introduce narrative-based games like Mysterium, where players take on the role of psychic detectives trying to help a ghost, controlled by another player, in finding the person who murdered them. The shop is prepared to host role-playing game groups playing games like Dungeons & Dragons with an in-house gamemaster.
"We love being on our phones, but to a certain extent we're all sick of it," said Didi Feuer, one of the upcoming cafe's employees. "It's an easy way to spend time, but at the end there's something not fulfilling about it. I think people are craving a face-to-face social interaction without screens."
Board game cafes have been cropping all across New York City, but they have yet to have a presence on Long Island. Goldberg said he started playing board games at a young age. He can still remember playing such classic games as Scotland Yard and Stop Thief!, but eventually forgot much about them as adulthood set in. For more than 20 years, the future cafe owner worked as a producer for New York One's sports programming. Eventually NY1 canceled its sports broadcasting, but Goldberg was already starting on another tack when a friend of his alerted him to a remake of Stop Thief! on Kickstarter.
"You ever have a rosebud moment?" Goldberg said, referring to the catalytic moment of the 1941 movie "Citizen Kane." "I'm in my mid-40s and I flashback to being 10 or 12 years old."
The space will also include a cafe area, where Goldberg expects to sell coffee and other soft drinks. If the new business can secure a license, he hopes to sell wines and craft beers selected from local breweries in the evening.
Goldberg said he expects the board games will be the element that draws in the crowds. The last several years have been kind to the board game industry, according to Goldberg. With the advent of crowdfunding websites like Kickstarter, new and unique games have had the opportunity to reach out and find support directly from the audience interested in playing them. The new business owner said he wants to bring these games into the limelight and take the stigma away from the industry that the only games available are Monopoly or Scrabble.
"With tabletop board games there is infinite complexity, infinite aesthetics and an infinite number of things one can accomplish."
— Neil Goldberg
"With tabletop board games there is infinite complexity, infinite aesthetics and an infinite number of things one can accomplish," Goldberg said.
So far, he has hired a number of experienced people in the gaming industry, including Feuer, who previously worked at the Brooklyn Strategist and another board game cafe in the city. Feuer plans to help run its after-school programs, one group for kids in first and second grades, with another group for third- through fifth-graders. There will also be a Dungeons & Dragons group available for older children.
The after-school programs will be designed to start out with simple games, such as Othello and Azul, before progressively introducing more difficult games and choices players can make more complex. Feuer said tabletop games are unique in how they teach kids basic skill, like reading comprehension, mathematics and deductive skills, in a social environment.
"Everyone's sitting down and agreeing that right now there's an island called Catan, and right now our job is to find resources and settle Catan," Feuer said, "It's teaching kids they have the capability, that they can show that they did focus for two hours and still have fun."
Goldberg said he expected to start renovations after the Thanksgiving holiday. The location will be at 307 Main St. in Huntington and, hopefully, open for business in early 2019.

Nisargadatta Gita - Message of Nisargadatta Maharaj
with commentary by 'Pradeep Apte'
You should be completely engulfed by the 'I am' or your conscious presence. In every way, in all directions, at all times the knowledge 'I am' must be infused into you. When you do this with earnestness and a tremendous intensity, the 'I am' merges in itself and disappears, When this happens it said that the state of 'Samadhi' ensues.

Outdoor Classroom Day – took place Thursday 17 – and saw over 1.7 million children playing and learning outdoors worldwide, over 340,000 of those were here in the UK. The campaign highlights the importance of time outdoors for children during the school day, including playtime.
Research released for Outdoor Classroom Day supports his lifelong philosophy; 97% of teachers questioned believe that outdoor playtime at school is critical for children to reach their full potential. But worryingly, the report also found that children around the country are missing out on playtime due to curriculum pressures (47%), because they are required to finish homework or classwork (38%) and because of poor behaviour in class (43%). This is something Michael hears all too often.

Baseball and Other Lessons
The hardest lessons are a lot like a line drive to the heart.
Texas Wranglers' ace Matt Roberts had it all: fame, fortune, his dream job. Until one line drive to the head ended it. Well, at least that was the case according to Twitter. Needing time to let his fractured skull heal—along with his psyche—Matt heads home to Del Rio, Texas, with one goal in mind—getting back to baseball. Unfortunately a certain redhead keeps driving him to distraction.
Seventh grade English teacher Jenn McDonnell is not happy that Matt's come home and is staying with his brother—aka her best friend—while his thick skull heals. And she certainly could do without all the questions their group of friends suddenly has, like, "Why do you hate Matt so much?" Yeah, she totally has no desire to answer that one.
Unfortunately for Jenn the questions aren't letting up, and unfortunately for Matt he can't get Jenn off of his mind. Can Jenn put past hurt aside and teach Matt that there's more to life than baseball? Furthermore, can Matt convince Jenn that this relationship isn't doomed to strike out?
Baseball and Other Lessons Playlist
When you look at the playlist for Baseball and Other Lessons, you'll probably notice something pretty quickly: the first 12 songs are all (mostly) from 2000-2009. After that, most of the songs are from 2010 and later. That's by design; the first 12 songs are ones that inspired flashback scenes between Matt and Jenn (if you haven't read the book yet).
It's funny, because music tends to influence my writing in all kinds of weird and wonderful ways. In some cases I'll hear a song and a scene will pop into my head. Such was the case with "Dancing All Around It" by Mike Ryan. Every time I heard that song on the radio or streaming on iTunes or Spotify I would just get this picture in my head of Matt and Jenn at April's Bar, Jenn dancing and laughing and having a good time while Matt watched, brooding, trying to figure out why in the world he was so fascinated with her.
And yet other songs just seemed to fit so seamlessly into scenes, and help set the tone. Like the Civil Wars' "The One That Got Away." That scene was actually harder to write than you might think, because in that moment Matt and Jenn's emotions were so very, very raw.
I also loved using Kelly Clarkson's "Heartbeat Song" for these two, because it just worked. If you look at my other book playlists you'll figure out I'm a Kelly Clarkson fangirl, and there's good reason for that–amazing song writing (not to mention that voice, though, and the fact that she seems like she would make the best BFF ever).
There's also a love scene that might not even exist if I hadn't had Ellie Goulding's "Love Me Like You Do" on repeat while writing it. That song definitely helped provide the creative inspiration and emotional backdrop.
So, yeah, I hope you enjoy this playlist as much as I do. It's probably my favorite book playlist to-date (okay, if I'm being honest, Baseball and Other Lessons is probably my favorite book I've written to-date, too, but don't tell my other books).

Foursquare has a deep collection of more than 65 million venues. One of the signals we use to help users discover new places they'll love is similar venues. Similar venues not only powers the features shown below, but is also an underlying scoring component for our search and recommendation algorithms.
While we've had a similar venues signal for quite a while, we've recently revisited the problem from the ground up. This post will provide a high level overview of how we approached the latest update to venue similarity.
The original venue similarity job was composed of two hadoop jobs using our Scala wrapper around raw Mapreduce with separate Luigi configurations. After the rewrite, the whole similar venue calculation was contained in one Scalding job with a single Luigi configuration, increasing code legibility. We also optimized the resulting HFile to be smaller than the previous one by re-organizing the Thrift structure. Thanks to this, the online fetching of similar venues for user-facing services results in lower loads for the servers.
The premise of using covisitation to calculate venue similarity is that if a lot of people tend to frequent two venues, they may be similar to each other. For example, in San Francisco, it turns out that many users that visit Smitten Ice Cream in Hayes Valley also visit Humphry Slocombe in the Mission, both similarly hip ice cream shops with seasonal flavors. Covisitation can be a very valuable signal, especially when we have over 8 billion check-ins to work with.
Computing covisitation at scale has its challenges. At a high level, what we want to do is compute the cosine similarity between venues. We model each venue as a vector of users: if we have n users, each venue is a vector of length n. The vector's value at index i is 1 if the user at index i has been to that venue and 0 otherwise. We can naively compute cosine similarity by mapping over each user's check-in data and emitting all pairs of visited venues. This yields O(n²) blow ups for users with deep histories that then lead to unacceptable runtimes and sadness on our Hadoop cluster. Here are a few important considerations for optimizing the calculation:
- Sampling: The folks at Twitter came up with the DISCO algorithm outlined here, which describes a method for intelligently sampling data without greatly altering the final similarity measures.
- Reflexivity: Computing the covisitation of venue A -> venue B means you don't need to compute it the other way around. If we order the data properly, we can greatly reduce the number of computations needed.
Covisitation by itself is not without its flaws. One problem is there are super-hub venues like airports and train stations that people pretty much have to visit that can introduce noise despite efforts to normalize them out. There are also problems of locality, a corner deli could be next door to a diner, and share many common visitors, but not really be very similar.
When you think of a restaurant you commonly go to, you might categorize it in only one category. For example, my favorite BBQ restaurant can simply be categorized as a "BBQ restaurant". However, a venue can have multiple categories. A BBQ restaurant can be considered just a generic "restaurant", or an American restaurant. In Foursquare, each venue we has a primary category but can have other sub-categories as well. Furthermore, categories are modeled in a tree hierarchy, so each category could have a parent or children categories. Previously, we only computed similarity between categories and their parents. A Dim Sum restaurant will have an exact category match with another Dim Sum restaurant, but it will have a mismatch in the deepest category node with a Hong Kong restaurant.
While this is good in a naive examination, it doesn't prove to be the best way to determine category similarity. For example, a Hot Pot restaurant and a Chinese restaurant are fairly similar, but because of how they are modeled it was difficult to reason about the exact similarity between them. We want a Hot Pot restaurant to be more similar to a Chinese restaurant instead of a Filipino restaurant.
To alleviate this issue we used maximum likelihood estimates to answer the following question: Given a venue labeled with category x and at least one other category, what is the probability that it's also labeled with category y? Looking at co-occurrences between pairs of categories is much more fine-grained compared to looking at exact matches between category lists. Using this metric gives us the desired outcome of a Hot Pot restaurant being more similar to a Chinese restaurant (calculated similarity of 27%) compared to a Filipino restaurant (calculated similarity of 0.0%!). At this point, we've already made a big improvement.
Looking at covisitation between venues with a high category similarity is exactly the situation we've described above: if a user frequents Ice Cream shop X and Ice Cream shop Y, X and Y are very likely to be similar. This metric works well for major cities with lots of foot traffic and rich venue information. However, what if we are looking at a city or a neighborhood that is less populated?
Tastes is another valuable feature in determining venue similarity only available on Foursquare. Each venue on Foursquare has tastes associated with it, so if we have venues without a lot of check-ins we can rely on tastes for coverage. At a high level, taste similarity is calculated by looking at the tf-idf for matching tastes in two venues (to learn more about another fun way we use tf-idfs, check this out: Geographic Taste Uniqueness). With this metric we can group venues with similar primary tastes even if we don't have rich covisitation data. Taste similarity can also help find venues that seem unrelated on the surface but provide similar food/experiences. For example, if you're a fan of Poutine you will love both Citizen's Band, an American Restaurant, and Jamber Wine Pub, a Wine Bar and Gastropub.
All these parts work together to produce a list of venues similar to your favorite venue. As a result of this effort, we've greatly improved the number of similar venues served, and the new method has resulted in a 7% increase in CTR for similar venues for the web in the United States and 3% increase globally. You can check out similar venues on the web or in the app when you're looking at a venue page. If you're interested in working with big data to make meaningful user experiences like these, come join us!

Take a walk through "Any Shop USA" and observe the actions being taken to serve the customer. Rarely will you see someone with an open manufacturing work instruction book reading about how his or her particular task is to be completed. The vast majority of shop employees know what it takes to ensure that a high-quality product arrives at the customer's dock on time. They have been instructed in specific tasks, and they follow those instructions.
So what is the purpose of documented work instructions? Besides having them available for audit review, why do such documents exist? Work instructions are created to guide workers in four key quality areas: training, reference, problem solving and continuous improvement.
Featured Content
Each of these areas can be directly related to the Deming Cycle, a cycle that identifies fundamental quality planning as "Plan-Do-Check-Act." It is important to establish (plan) the instructions that your people must execute. The references must then be effectively implemented (do) so they are accessible to personnel. Documentation must be verified (check) so the instructions assist your problem-solving methodology. Finally, it is important to use (act) what has been defined in order to continuously improve.
Reason #1. Training (Plan). Training is the essential first step to ensuring that people are competent in their duties. It is important to define, within the quality planning activities, the type of training that each function is to receive. It is equally necessary to ensure that the trainers are executing the plan, including improvements made to the instructions.
New employees should start their training with the process expert so they can observe how the process should be performed. It is here that detailed training discussions and hands-on activities take place between the expert and the trainee. The trainer uses the work instructions so new employees understand the basis for the tasks they are performing. The process is an opportunity for additional review of the work instruction content. The veteran can reaffirm the defined steps, and the new employee can confirm the validity of the process.
Reason #2. Reference (Do). This quality activity should focus on both access and format of the instructions. The documentation must be implemented so workers are not wary of having to locate the information relative to their areas of responsibility.
Write out how the instruction is to be performed specific to each core task.
Once employees have been trained and have demonstrated that they can be effective performers, you must ensure that the work instructions are available in case of questions. The instructions must be presented in an easy-to-understand format so that access and review will not take up valuable time.
Write out how the instruction is to be performed specific to each core task. Avoid defining why the activity is performed. There should be no need for an expert organization to reaffirm why core tasks are needed. If the "why" information must be defined, keep that separate from the work instructions and make the additional information available as reference-only training documents.
Reason #3. Problem Solving (Check). Problem solving is a quality activity that focuses on ensuring that the supporting processes are properly defined to achieve product quality. Documentation should be referenced frequently to ensure that relevance is maintained.
Work instructions are key documents to reference when internal or external nonconformances are identified. Make the review of the work instructions part of the corrective action process. Ask if the supporting instruction properly defines the process, then audit the instruction to confirm proper definition.
The operator/employee cannot be held fully accountable if the records of training are written to an inadequately defined work instruction. If the task is properly defined, the manner by which training is conducted might need to be revisited.
Reason #4. Continuous Improvement (Act). Work instructions should not be stagnant documents accessed only when auditors ask for them. Reviewing work instructions when improvement opportunities are identified demonstrates that they are "living documents."
Instructions can be improved upon through document reviews, audits, a disciplined problem-solving process and, most importantly, the input from the experts who are performing the tasks. The current documentation should be the starting point for all improvements. Always improve upon existing documentation before creating a new document. Volume does not equate to continuous improvement.Identifying that your work instructions serve four key purposes provides the evidence that your organization practices advanced quality planning. It shows that the organization considers the work instruction process to be more important than just a mandated requirement from the latest quality standard. It also demonstrates that top management understands the importance of ensuring that such documentation is properly created, implemented, used and improved upon.

Some words are synonymous with wine. Words like chaptalization, corked, cru, fermentation, lees, oaky, oxidized, plonk, pruning, racking, riddling, tannin and yeast — but none are more talked about, or controversial, as the term terroir, the all-encompassing French word for the place and factors that influence grapes as they grow.
It is not exclusive to wine; think coffee, chocolate, agave, tea and, lately, cannabis, but wine and terroir can be obsessive.

Anthony Gismondi: The nebulous nature of the term terroir Back to video
French wine producers will arrive in Vancouver in little more than a week, and as France is the theme country of the 2020 Vancouver International Wine Festival, you can bet the concept of terroir will be widely explored during their stay.
The notion of terroir is much broader than what has been discussed at nauseam for the last decade or two, where most of the talk has been focused solely on the soil. Is it chalk, or volcanic? Is it laced with minerals? Is it deep or shallow? Is it young or old?

spilt ink cries onto
scribbled apologies
and crumpled teardrops
that decorate the floor.
the ink-stained clouds
and moonless sky
swallow all the names of hope
that tear the world apart.
T. E. Pyrus
the Lamp, the Teacup and some Chaotic Overthinking
the ramblings of a confused creature
spilt ink cries onto
scribbled apologies
and crumpled teardrops
that decorate the floor.
the ink-stained clouds
and moonless sky
swallow all the names of hope
that tear the world apart.
T. E. Pyrus
When nights are warm
and winds are shy,
When night-owls soar across the sky,
When frantic seas
meet wistful lands,
and salty foam woos changing sands,
When whispers wander
where they will,
and fly o'er curtained windowsill,
When dreamers learn
to love the night,
What is brighter than starlight?
T. E. Pyrus
We polish our masks
with the broken pieces
of our starry skies.
When it rains, the paint
runs down their cheeks
like tears, as if masks could feel,
and souls could fall like melting clouds.
When they're broken, lost,
colours washed into white afternoons,
we scour the sunsets for our names;
by twilight we drown
in oceans of our boundless hope,
breathing like springtime,
bleeding like salt, silver
like your moonlit-mask;
and you, never knowing
how your lonely eyes
hold all the storms that light the skies…
T. E. Pyrus
Pine trees that lace the ridges
of snowblest mountaintops
lean against the darkened moon,
like storms that lean on precious earth
with open arms towards the sky;
lightning touches myriad stars
that wander through unbroken songs
and quietly fill hollow dawns…
T. E. Pyrus
The crescent moon
leapt over the fence
and slipped into the twilight lake
with a starry splash.
T. E. Pyrus
When oceans climb the mountainside
to cradle wishful stars that hide,
Behind dark, twinkling thunder, bright,
the swelling moon fills up the night.
T. E. Pyrus
What secrets linger, hovering
over the silver mirror lake?
What secrets drown in ripples
when leafless boughs
bow towards the underwater sky?
What secrets echo
beneath the mirror, and gaze up
as stillness waits, still?
What secrets bring storms
when forever lake trembles
and thunder drowns forever skies?

[Had] a very painful, swollen wrist…[from] too much pressure exerted in an exercise. The severe burning [symptom] is associated with nerves [confirmed by my doctor as a neuroma], so Cynthe mixed [SweetBalm] essential oils designed to treat nerve pain.
Realizing the pain originated further up the arm, I applied a drop just below the inside bend of the elbow continuing with one drop midway down the forearm, and another at the point of pain on the wrist. I massaged the entire are as deeply as possible.
Besides easing the pain, a side benefit of this [SweetBalm] blend is its delightful fragrance. Deeply breathing in the wonderful aroma provides an extremely pleasant atmosphere for falling asleep.

Moving on from Bootstrapping and Friends & Family options lets now look into the world of Commercial lending and recognised financial providers…
Commercial Loans
In many cases loans is the way which is applied to many businesses. Loans and private Investors are probably the most ancient almost archaic approaches to funding your idea. Since the set up of official currencies and establishment of "treasuries," people have been approaching wealth-storing individuals or organizations for a share of the percentage of their wealth, necessary to bring their own idea to life, usually offering something worthwhile in return to the funder.
The sheer volume of sources exists nowadays with an open access to banks, building societies, grants companies, funding circles, etc. The way it works is simple – you approach one (or more) of these sources, presenting them your idea and justifying your request.
Be it purchasing equipment, starting costs of hiring an office, the ongoing staff-commitments, bulk-buy of core products, or pre-payment on your manufacturing order or whatever. You will be encouraged by sane people to go to the high-street bank.
Please do remember, there are big differences between the high street bank and the digital bank and the loan shark.
You are by all means will be offered a better rate and sexy terms by the loan-shark or the digital bank which does not have a branch. Most of the time it is because these organizations do not incur the same level of costs for licensing, auditing, management, and staffing, in fact they might not have it at all as they might be offering financial products and not be regulated by the government or a third party, essentially leaving you exposed to risk.
Trust my word – the better the offer the more likely it be a scam or a trap.
But the choice is entirely yours. Make sure you read the "small print" and do know the "implied terms" of the contract you are committing to.
- In comparison to all other types of loans available on the market, the one can still find the lowest interest rate option through a Commercial Agreement. Low interest will mean that you can focus on the growth of the business without incurring high overheads which makes your budgeting easier.
- Most of the commercial loans can be spread across numerous months, can be up to 10-15 years, making your monthly repayments tiny in comparison to the short-term snap-investment from the side needed to be paid back within 6 months or a personal loan for 15 months.
- Your hands are untied in choosing the amount. This will be the best way for you to go if you are requiring £100K+ in funding. Focusing on crucial investment will allow you to carry on with trade/service provision without having to look for various money-pots at the initial state of turnover growth.
- If you are eligible and meet the bank criteria than it can become the most cost-effective option for starting your business if you provide a decent business plan and know that it is going to work.
By now you know that I ruin good feelings but I cannot leave it without saying that Commercial Loan does not have its own drawbacks.
- You will have to go through "eligibility check" in order to qualify for finance. It can be a right pain in the bum. You will be asked to provide not only your basic ID, Business Plan and proof of address but also meet Bank Criteria on "income" and "feasibility" thresholds and pass their stress-test on your/or your company ability to repay the debt.
- The amount of paperwork and additional fees on the way might seem unbearable. Banks in the UK, for instance, no longer part with their money light-heartedly as they used to the pre-2010 crisis.,Thorough checks are carried out in order to avoid the "burst of a bubble" when Banks have been lending money to people not knowing their circumstance and not assessing their abilities of repayment.
- The amount of time for all the checks to come through will have to be accounted for in advance. Usually when a new business is formed you are tied into deadlines of "schemes" or "contacts" where you are intending to 'grab an opportunity by its tale', sadly with the process of applying – reviewing and getting approved for a commercial loan you can end up waiting for over 3 months before the final thing comes through. It might affect your plan, you might need to adjust your business model accordingly or be flexible.
- The most important part – COSTS. You might be aiming to get £150000, now, consider legal fees, consultancy fees, administration burden and postage & Packaging to come with it – I can reassure you your £150000 will turn into £165000 in no time. Pay solicitors, evaluation, consultants, etc, etc, etc to finish the deal. The good thing is that all costs in most cases can be added on top of your total loan requested, but bear in mind how much of an interest you will pay over the next 10 years, where £15K of raw cash might turn into £30K+ sum (incl interest) if you won't be able to pay it on the day and will decide to add it on top of the whole sum.
Commercial Mortgages
It is not that much different from a Commercial Loan, and I think it still falls under the category of "cheap and easy" ways to obtain funding for the purchase of properties due to its long-term spread, manageable monthly-repayments which make short-term forecasting and budgeting simple.
Most of the description will cover both the Loans and Mortgages but to avoid boring you with details lets look at specifics for Commercial Mortgages and think through our next step.
- What is it? You want to buy the house, the office space, a warehouse, anything – meaning that you want to own it. You pay the mortgage off and the property becomes yours at some point. But you don't have a £1m to buy it outright so you apply for a Mortgage. If you are successfully repaying it – it becomes your property, your ASSET. If you are smart enough to buy it when the country is in crisis or when your country goes through a dip in property values – you rip the benefits of buying high-value building – cheap. Your asset will become your CAPITAL once the Mortgage is repaid. Meaning that you can increase your capital easy if you are smart and are prepared to wait.
- Do you care and in-depth research of all offers on the market and chose the right funds provider. If your legal are in the clean state and finances are in the right position you will have the upper-hand in negotiations. You can hunt for the best deal – meaning that if you are taking out the commercial mortgage during low-interest rate period and secure it on fixed terms – you are with it till the end. If you are on 6%APR and the country goes through a financial boom where the APR% goes up – you are still repaying your agreed £100 p/m (maybe a bit more) and your immaculate budget stays unaffected by increasing costs whilst your profits on the rise!
- You can deduct the interest rate charged on the Commercial Mortgage from your profit. If you are on the variable rate and your repayment goes up due to the increase in % applied, you can deduct this increase from your overall profit and it might help 'soften the blow' against your business during the hard times instead of burdening your with increased ongoing costs at troubled times for trade.
- To get the mortgage in the first place, just as with Commercial Loans, you will have to pass the stress test on repayments and shove a healthy cash flow or a solid potential for it. But in this case, you will have to provide a deposit upfront. The deposit can be hefty and you won't be able to apply for a personal loan to fund it as you can't apply for debt to pay for debt…(if that makes sense). At least not in the UK.
- Think carefully about where you want to be in 10 years time and what do you want to do with a property you are purchasing. Once the mortgage is up, unless you want to go through a 'malaki' of "selling the property off the auction" / repossession (which is going to ruin your credit history forever) / or some other nasty process – you will have to keep what you are paying for. Nothing stops you from selling it in the end or attempt selling half way but you are risking to lose on the value of the asset, not gain any return capital and slim up your chances on future financial deals through High Street Banks.
- The value of your asset may plunge. You can take out the £600K commercial mortgage for the warehouse valued at that price but over the 'course of history' (5 years down the line) the value of the property may go down to £450k (wear and tear, development in the area, contamination, devaluation, etc) and you will end up overpaying by £250K which you will never get back if the value of your commercial premise will not rise again. It might actually never ever rise up to £600K as you could have purchased it at the peak of economic BOOM, literally weeks prior to credit crunch…
- If you are on the variable rate and not fixed, or are on fixed but a very high rate, your repayments can splash through the roof and come down crashing on you if you are experiencing troublesome trade times. Rates may change, and change not in your favour. The economic environment is unpredictable and most definitely will go from low to high to low to high over the course of 15 years of your mortgage term – brace yourself and stay flexible.
Let's see what FUNDING 3 will bring!

Gotham is looking to go out with a bang looking for Shane West (Nikita, Salem) to deliver for the Fox show's fifth and final season.
West will be playing Eduardo Dorrance, an army friend of Jim Gordon (Ben McKenzie), who leads a group of elite soldiers to help his former comrade in arms restore order, according to Deadline.
As a Batman prequel series, the series often went off the rails when it came to how bad things can get in Gotham City. From an underwhelming League of Shadows to a tongue-in-cheek and bait-and-switch twin brother story arc for the most iconic villain in franchise history, the final season is looking to start finally reward fans as we see Bruce Wayne (David Zazouz) take his final steps to be the Batman.
Naturally, like how all new elements introduced in Gotham, Dorrance's intentions are not what they seem unbeknownst to Gordon. They are far more sinister. For the uninitiated for the Batman comics, Eduardo shares the last name with a known villain, Sir Edmund Dorrance, aka King Snake.
It's possible Eduardo is related to Edmund in this universe or is Edmund himself, but the bigger implication is Edmund is the father of Bane, who is the man who broke the Bat in Knightfall. As creator and showrunner Bruno Heller is known to be loose with the Batman franchise, it could be Eduardo who becomes Bane in this incarnation.
The show stars McKenzie, Donal Logue, Mazouz, Sean Pertwee, Robin Lord Taylor, Erin Richards, Carmen Bicondova, Cory Michael Smith, Morena Baccarin, Jessica Lucas, and Chris Chalk.
What do you think? Is West going to be Bane or King Snake? Sound off in the comments.

General Secretary of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), Johnson Asiedu Nketia has been retained as the General Secretary of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) at the ongoing National Congress held at the Trade Fair Centre in Accra.
Asiedu Nketia polled 7,605 votes to beat Koku Anyidoho who had a paltry 1,624.
No one expected Koku to receive a shellacking from Asiedu Nketia. Yes, we all expected General Mosquito to win, however we didn't expect a landslide victory.
Utterly shocking!

The first and most memorable hook on the new Dropkick Murphys album, "Signed and Sealed in Blood," goes, "The boys are back, and they're looking for trouble." That says it all, really. The album's only hook that you might be able to remember when the music's shut off is a cliché line that may or may not be ripping off Thin Lizzy.
The truly sad thing about "Signed and Sealed in Blood" is what it represents, though. Dropkick Murphys are, along with Flogging Molly, the most popular artists in a genre that once showed a lot of promise: Celtic punk.
Celtic punk, the combination of Irish folk and punk rock, was first devised by The Pogues, an '80s band formed in London. Fronted by the famously intoxicated Shane MacGowan, this group mixed their love of Celtic music with their love of punk. They were by no means a band that traditionalist punks would enjoy, nor were they a band that traditional Celtic fans would like. Rather, they were a fascinating group that true music fans might get a kick out of.
Most classic bands have a decent influence on the music scene, even if it lasts only for a short while. The Pogues weren't so lucky. The idea of fusing these two genres may seem interesting, but it ran out of steam quickly. The Pogues themselves only managed to get a few exceptional albums out of it (most notably the nearly perfect "Rum, Sodomy & the Lash"), and other Celtic punk bands weren't even that lucky.
This genre should be remembered as a failure that one band was talented enough to get something out of. Sadly, it can't be dismissed as that, because it's way more popular now than it was then. Dropkick Murphys and Flogging Molly both have over a million fans on Facebook, which is over ten times what The Pogues have.
And, damn, is their music boring.
Dropkick Murphys is a band that is hard to hate on. They've supported many causes, and the fact that they are so socially active gives their lyrics authenticity that many modern punk bands don't have. But despite that, their music is very forgettable.
Their songs are marred by in-your-face choruses that seem to be trying desperately to hammer themselves in your head, but few of the tunes stick. Militant boot-stomping anthems are incredibly off-putting, and they're even more repellant when the attempts at catchy hooks are so underwhelming.
Even so, "Signed and Sealed in Blood" is worse than the average Dropkick Murphys album. It doesn't have a song on the level of "I'm Shipping Up to Boston" (which is an excellent song) or "The State of Massachusetts" (which isn't). It's one thing to be lame, but at least include an anthem of some sort.
The highlights of this record are instead quite mild. "The Boys Are Back" opens the album with possibly the most abrasive attempt at catchiness the band has ever displayed, while "Rose Tattoo" reveals itself as a legitimately all right song if you give it more time than it deserves. The album also features a Christmas song, "The Season's Upon Us," that is an even bigger rip-off of The Pogues' classic "Fairytale of New York" than you'd think (bassist Ken Casey's desperate promise that "it's definitely not some cheesy Christmas tune" doesn't help the song's lack of sincerity).
Dropkick Murphys' biggest fault is that their main influence is Celtic punk. They seem uninterested in Irish music, and very interested in using Celtic influence to separate themselves from other left-wing punk bands. As stated earlier, the members of the band are admirable, but admirable people don't always make interesting music. There's little to say in this album's defense.
Grade: C PLUS
Key Track: "Rose Tattoo."

Some reflections by Arjuna
Music, the word that we use in our language, is nothing less than the picture of the Beloved. But the question is, what is our Beloved and where is our Beloved? It is because music is the picture of our Beloved that we love music. Our Beloved is that which is our Source and our Goal (HIK). [1]
The Song Keepers: ancient German hymns find new life in Australian outback
'The subject of The Song Keepers film is the Central Australian Aboriginal Women's Choir, led by Morris Stuart' [2]
My second viewing of this amazing film brought tears to my eyes more than once. We have just returned from the Red Centre, where we first connected with the choir. I was just beginning to feel like I was back in Bondi, andsuddenly I found myself in that red desert country as I watched the film and listened to the exalted music again. It was like they were singing the land.
After this second viewing I wrote the following:
Music is the Universal language
because it's the language
of the Universe
'Uni' is One
'Verse' is Song –
The Universe is One Song –
This is the Music of the Spheres
that Pythagoras wrote about –
The Aboriginal Women's Choir
are singing the Land
they took their desert song to Germany
where they could sing the song
of the German Land
in harmony with their Western Aranta land.
This is an ecology of culture!
They spoke of being
part of both cultures –
they said they didn't
need to choose
between the Christian culture
of the missionaries
expressed in song
and their Aranta culture
expressed in song –
They are keeping
their culture strong
through singing both songs –
that's what they said!
Through language
Through song!
As Hazrat Inayat Khan said
The whole Universe
is an ocean of vibrations![3]
Our whole body is an orchestra
of different organs
all playing their music
all singing their song
all dancing their dance.
Like the dance
of Shiva and Shakti
that created the Universe
This was the Big Bang!
With Shiva and Shakti
making love
in a circle of fire.
This space condensed
into a singularity
whichcould flareforth
as stars and galaxies
as planets and elements
as life – as US!
Ancient cultures
still remember
their Creation Songs –
Bereshith, Bismillah,
Abwoon de Bash'maya
Te Kore –
We dance creation into being
We sing creation into being
We are Creation singing and dancing
itself into Being
That's why –
Tjukurpa, the Dreaming
is NOW
Bereshith, Creation
is NOW
We are here NOW!

I first learnt about the choir when we were in Hermannsburg. My partner had gone there to work with the Aboriginal potters, with whom she had made connections some years earlier. She is doing a PhD and part of her research involved examining the ways non-Western cultures approach ceramic arts. I was there as her assistant and endeavoured to connect to the local community and the desert country, while she was engaged with the potters.
As a social ecologist I was interested in the way the arts had put Hermannsburg on the map. We previously visited there 30 years earlier, because of the artworks of Albert Namatjira. At the time it was a sleepy little village in the Western Desert of the Northern Territory. We did discover then that Albert had taught all his 7 children to paint in the western watercolour style he had learnt from the artist Rex Battarbee.[4]This began a whole tradition of Aboriginal watercolour paintings of the Red Centre. It also later resulted indirectly in the Papunya school of dot painting on canvas and in the Aboriginal ceramic art movement, which Karen was researching.
One of the first people we met at the pottery was InkaataNeville, the local Lutheran Pastor. We learnt about the Historic Precinct and other local information about the mission's work. Then as Karen was working with the ladies during the week, we decided to go to the church service on the Sunday, to get a deeper understanding of this community that seemed to be a hybrid culture of the Aboriginal Aranta people with a strong influence of Australian Lutheran Christian culture. The main language in the village of some 600 people was Western Aranta[5].
The service that Sunday at the local church was mainly in Aranta, with an Aranta Pastor and some in English. The congregation was equally mixed. Before and after the service we spoke with the locals, several of whom were volunteer Lutherans from other parts of Australia. The Historic Precinct, which has now become a major tourist attraction in the NT, was largely run by these volunteers as was the Finke River Mission Shop. As part of the precinct there was an excellent café that served fresh food and great apple strudel. As the precinct had good WIFI and good coffee as well, it was a place I visited daily. The view from the balcony of the café was like sitting in a Namatjira painting.
After the service I was introduced to David, the choirmaster of the Hermannsburg choir.
The choir is led by David Roennfeldt, a teacher, linguist and "bush conductor". There is a core of 12 singers, who are grouped into three parts. Roennfeldt teaches them each part by playing it on a keyboard. "They listen and pick it up that way," he says. "There are not many Aboriginal choirs that sing in harmonies like this."[6]
I said to David that I was involved with the Dances of Universal Peace and we were planning to come to Hermannsburg later that month and maybe we could do something with the local school. He explained that he'd be away then, so I asked if I could come down to the school with him the following Wednesday, which was his regular time to go there. He agreed, and so on the Wednesday, I went with him and we sang songs in Aranta with the infant class. They were so cute! He played his guitar and I played along with my red guitar ukulele and sang Aranta songs, I sang along when I could. Then I taught them Haida, one of our Jewish Niggunim (song without words) from the dances. They loved it! I'd taught it to Aboriginal kids before with great success. The next day the teacher saw me and said she'd googled the song and they were singing it again, as the kids had enjoyed so much.
We ended up with a very loose arrangement that our group might be able to go to a rehearsal of the choir in Alice, after our trip around Uluru, Kata Tjuta and King's Canyon. I arranged to ring him when we were in Alice on the Sunday. This indeed we did and it turned out we arrived in Alice at 20 to 4 pm on the Sunday and drove past the Yirara College which is a Lutheran college. When I rang David, he invited us to a commissioning of the choir at 4pm at the very college we were very near to. We were clearly meant to be there and so we attended the gathering, along with the local community. It was quite a privilege to be included to what was the send-off event of the choir as it toured to Melbourne, Sydney and then would be attending an international choir festival in Washington DC.
Hearing the choir live for the first time was very special. I had seen the film by then and listened to one of their CDs, but to hear these ladies sing live added a whole extra dimension to the experience. It reminds me of when I've seen a famous painting live in a gallery, like Van Gogh's Sunflowers or Monet's Waterlilies. If there's an atmosphere around alive artwork like a painting, how much more so around a live performance in song! Here were Lutheran hymns, originally brought by the Lutheran Missionaries to Hermannsburg more than 100 years ago – now translated into Aranta, Pitjantjatjaraand other local languages, sung by a choir made up predominantly of senior indigenous women. They had fused their Aboriginal desert song culture into the rhythms and harmonies of the music.
Then we saw them again live at the Sydney Opera House on the Friday of the same week. On the stage of the Concert Hall, it was a truly spectacular experience. The colourful costumes and the colourful choir conductor, Morris is a real performer and knows how to work an audience. As a one time member of staff at the Opera House, mainly working on stage lighting but also occasionally sound and stage management, it was very moving seeing this Aboriginal event there. Rarely was there any Aboriginal content when I worked there in the 70s and early 80s. What further enhanced the experience of this performance was the inclusion of some South African songs about Soweto and Mandela. So now there was a fusion of Aboriginal Australian desert sounds, with Lutheran German Christian sounds and with South African celebratory revolutionary sounds – a very rich mix indeed. The almost full concert hall audience loved the performance and this brought out the best in the choir.
This truly was an experience of the mysticism of sound and music that Hazrat Inayat Khan wrote about in his book of that name. It also felt like a coming of age for Australia to acknowledge its indigenous people through song, in the same way as they have been acknowledged in painting, sculpture, pottery and other plastic arts, and in dance through groups like Bangarra, whose performance of Dark Emu I saw the following week – an equally mind blowing experience. It was like being at an authentic Aboriginal ceremony or inma.
