There are no triple bottoms in the market. When gold bounced (double bottom) from 1180, that was your clue to get into that "core" position.
Nowadays, you've missed that bottom, but it's still a very good entry point for core positions. Very limited downside and high upside.Jul 28, 2014. 09:18 PM | 1 Like |Link to Comment
The seed has been planted: "If you read the other article I posted, there is no bottom I will be missing."
So even if there's not a lower low, which has been his battle cry for months (and something me and others disagree with), he will be right, and we will be wrong. That's the Avi way.Jul 28, 2014. 06:30 PM | 2 Likes |Link to Comment
bogi, why are you not accounting for the move from 2011 (~$1900) to 2014 (~$1200)? That's more than 30%, no?

Son, Ukraine has no need to shoot at anything in the sky. The rebels have no planes. They have anti-air missile systems though, and have shot down planes before.
An area controlled by rebels means Ukraine military vehicles can't move around freely. While not out of the realm of the possible, it makes very little sense that the gov of Ukraine shot this plane down.Jul 18, 2014. 12:59 PM | 2 Likes |Link to Comment

You're not factoring all the decay that occurs with DUST. DUST and NUGT have sort of decoupled from gold lately as well, another factor to consider. DUST is unlikely to ever reach $50 again.
I do not see gold going to 1200 ever again, but if it did, from these levels, DUST would be around $29, not $50, assuming it re-couples with gold.Jul 12, 2014. 06:55 PM | 1 Like |Link to Comment
Avi, if the principal thesis of your contributions here (gold has not made its low) doesn't pan out, will you publish an article stating you were wrong, and possibly why that was? Thanks.

Android Developer Challenge and Italy, follow up
The news about Italy being excluded by the Android contest have circulated a lot, and made their way - at the moment - up to three major italian newspapers: La Repubblica, La Stampa and Il Sole 24 Ore, in addition to a large number of blogs.
Most of the posts have described the "local restrictions" that prevented Google to open the context to Italy (some quoted my blog). BTW, I have to thank the italian JUGs, whose mailing list has been useful for exchanging some information, in particular thanks to an input by Filippo Diotalevi.
On the other hand, somebody is speculating that maybe there's some workaround to the law (as a matter of fact, working around laws is one of the things we do better). Since not only IANAL but I don't understand laws almost at all, it would be great if some law professional give us some advice. Even though I think it's unlikely that Google didn't already tried that way.
In any case, since - as I said - this is not the first case of exclusion from international contests, it's good that this time people are making some noise. The next step, now, is that the thing goes even further to the upper floors and some lawmaker start thinking about a new law, so maybe we won't be excluded by the next big thing.

Paul Daniels and Debbie McGee have revealed they plan to give 'Celebrity Big Brother' viewers a visual treat, by suggesting they would have sex in the 'CBB' house.
And you thought Lionel Blair in Spandex was bad…
Paul Daniels and Debbie McGee
The married pair have hinted that Paul won't be letting his advancing years stop him from showing Debbie a "magic" time in the 'CBB' bedroom, after she told The Sun: "I couldn't possibly reveal what we've got planned for the Big Brother bedroom - that would spoil the surprise.
"All I will say is that we're still very much in love."
The most recent series of 'CBB' proved to be the raciest ever, with Lee Ryan and Jasmine Waltz disappearing into the bathroom together for some mystery fan, which was described by Jim Davidson as "sounding like he was whisking an omelette".
Luisa Zissman and Dappy also gave viewers a shock with their antics.
Meanwhile, Kimberly and Steven made headlines on the current series of 'Big Brother' after they were seen having full sex in the house on several occasions - including one bone-chilling moment when he was heard whispering "open it" in the throes of passion - with the rest of the housemates sleeping in their beds around them.
Paul and Debbie have also revealed their 'CBB' survival tactics, with the TV magician claiming he is at an advantage having his wife with him in the house.
He explained: "We can stick together. Then it doesn't matter what anyone thinks of what we're doing."
It's not yet been confirmed which stars will be arriving in the Borehamwood bungalow when 'CBB' returns on Monday night, Kelly Brook's muscleman fiancé David McIntosh, 'Benefits Street' resident White Dee and former 'TOWIE' cast member Lauren Goodger are all among the rumoured contestants.
Janice was the first celebrity to be rumoured for the 2015 summer series of 'CBB', reportedly scooping a cool £300,000 to take part.
Eamonn has admitted that his wife, Ruth Langsford, has forbidden him from going on 'CBB', because she doesn't want the whole country to see him in his pants. Ruth... we owe you one.
The 'Mob Wives' star reportedly had to pull out of the upcoming series, after undergoing surgery for throat cancer.
The Daily Star have claimed that, after trying to get Keeley on board for the past few years, this will be the year she finally enters the 'CBB' house.
Oh, Gemma. Having not learned her lesson from 'I'm A Celebrity' - which she walked out of after just three days - Gemma reportedly wants to show people "the real her" on 'CBB'.
Fingers crossed he's brought those shorts...
Sadly, Dina was quick to deny rumours that she was in talks with Channel 5 to join the show.
'Teen Mom' turned adult film star, producers have reportedly roped in Farrah to "sex up" the 'CBB' house.
Metro have reported that David is among this year's "potential housemates" from the States, which is so unbelievably exciting we're not quite sure what to do.

Jan. 6, 1959 R. E. BLETCHER ETAL 2,
DIVERTER VALVE FOR A SHOWER INSTALLATION Filed April 25, 1955 aw a V 0 0 0O 0 v I 4 DIVERTER VALVE FOR A SHOWER INSTALLATION Ralph 'E. Bletcher and Irving A. Ward, Los Angeles, Calif., assignors of small percentages to various assignees Application April 25, 1955, Serial No. 503,517.
2 Claims. (Cl, 137-419) This invention relates to a shower installation.
It is an object of this invention to provide a shower installation having multiple outlets.
It is a further object of this invention to provide a shower installation wherein water is discharged through one of multiple outlets at a time.
It is still a further object of this invention to provide a volume control independent of the hot and cold water inlets to permit tempering of the water discharge in a shower installation and then increasing the volume without moving the hot and cold water control valves.
Other objects and advantages of this invention will be readily apparent from the following description.
In the drawings:
Figure 1 is a side elevation of a shower installation embodying this invention.
Figure 2 is a side elevation partially in section of the flow control unit.
Figure 3 is a sectional view of the showerhead.
The installation illustrated is a tub shower installation. The tub 10 has the conventional spout outlet 12 and an overheadshower generally designated 14. Water is supplied to the shower through pipe 16 which water is a mixture of hot and cold water controlled by the conventional valves. generally designated 18. The housing 20 is threaded at one end to receive pipe 16 and has a Water passageway 22 communicating with said pipe. A plug 24 having a central bore 26 is positioned in passageway 22 and is rotated by means of handle 24a to control the volume of water flowing through passageway 22 independent of the hot and cold water control valves.
After passing through passageway 22 water enters chamber 28. Mounted in chamber 28 in this embodiment, soldered therein, is a spider 30 which has ports such as 32 therethrough. The housing 20 has in internally threaded nipple 34 receiving an adapter 36 upon which one end of the hand spray outlet hose 37 is mounted. The spider 30 has an enlarged leg 38 which covers the Opening 40 communicating chamber 28 with hose 37. The leg 38 has a port 42 therein which communicates with opening 40 and the open central chamber 44 of the spider. The spider has a tubular extension 46 which projects into chamber 28 surrounding the open end of chamber 44 and forming a seat for washer 48. The washer 48 has a central aperture 50 through which valve stem 52 projects. On the extremity of valve stem 52 adjacent chamber 44 is a valve head 54 and on the opposite extremity a piston 56.
The showerhead 14 is mounted upon a ball 58 which is in turn mounted on the extremity of a cylinder 60 which projects into the externally threaded extremity of housing 20. The extremity of cylinder 60 is recessed to forma chamber 62 into which piston 56 is positioned. The showerhead is secured to ball 58 in the usual manner by its extremity screwing into collar 64 which collar has an internal flange preventing the ball from passing therethrough.
Water from pipe 16 flows through the diverter' tates Patent Patent No. 2,789,013.
The showerhead in this embodiment is of the self closing type describing our copending application, Serial No. 379,839 Self Closing showerhead, now It is to be understood that any showerhead may be utilized which can be shut olf manually or otherwise from a point adjacent the outlet, In the particular showerhead illustrated water flows through ball 58 into chamber 66 which has ininternal shoulder for spring 68. The spring 68 bears against ;valve head -70 urging same against-valve seat 72 preventing fiowthrough the showerhead.- The valve headis mounted; on a stem 74 which carries at itsopposite extremity cam.
' head 76 which fits into a depression78 in cam plate 80.
When the cam plate is moved the cam headis moved out of the depression urging the valve head 70 against spring 68 opening the valve and permitting flow through the showerhead. The cam plate hasa plurality of studs 82 which project through elongated slots 84 in web 86, permitting movement thereof which studs are secured by a lock plate 88 and a loop spring 90 urges the cam plate to the closed'position, that is, when cam head 76 is in depression 78 and valve head 70 is seated in valve seat 72. When the cam plate is moved against the urging of spring 90 to the open positon water flows through port 92 and out the showerhead 94 which is screwed into the cam plate. To permit the water pressure to maintain the cam plate in this position a resilient washer 96 is provided having a plurality of projections 98 projecting into elongated slots in the cam plate. A metal washer 100 is positioned between the resilient washer 96 and cam plate to reduce friction. Thus water flow urges the resilient washer 96 and metal washer 100 against the cam plate holding same in the open position. When water flow ceases the spring urges the cam plate 80 to the valve closing position.
Thus when water first flows to the fixture the showerhead 14 is closed and the pressure urges piston 56 and valve head 54 to the left inFigure 2, permitting flow through the spray outlet hose 37, which hose has at its extremity a suitable spray valve 102 of any conventional type. Sleeve 104 on washer or valve seat 48 limits the movement of the piston and valve head. The volume of flow may be reduced by adjustment of the plug valve 24 to permit the user to temper the water as desired.
The showerhead may be opened at the time the water is at the desired temperature so that flow will be through the showerhead. This flow urges piston 56 to the right in Figure 2 so that the valve head 54 seats against valve seat 48 preventing flow through the spray outlet. The plug valve 24 may then be adjusted to increase the volume of flow through the showerhead without changing the tempering of the water.
In this manner a combination shower installation is provided having an overhead shower ,and a movable hand spray, only one of which will function at a time. The water will discharge out the hand spray when first turned on due to the self-closing feature of the showerhead. It is, of course, possible to change the installation so that water will be supplied to the showerhead wheninitially the Water is supplied and to the hand spray only when desired. This is accomplished by placing the selfclosing spray valve'on the hand spray outlet and an ordinary showerhead on the shower outlet, and reversing the position of valve head 54 and valve seat 48 with that of piston 56. While what hereinbefore has been described is the preferred embodiment of this invention, it is readily apparent that alterations and modifications can be resorted to without departing from the scope of this invention and such alterations and modifications are intended to be included within the scope of the appended claims.

Recipe by Stephanie Hock
"This recipe actually started out as ice cubes for my son to chew on while teething, but I threw a few in my ice tea and it was great!"
Hmm. None of these ingredients are on sale today.

10 stalks
fresh rhubarb, chopped
2 cups
white sugar, or to taste
1 quart
black tea bags
1 tablespoon
1 cup
white sugar
I started this recipe without reading the reviews...However I changed it a bit and it turned out wonderful!!! I mostly followed the recipe but only cooked it for 45 min (1/2 batch) and added only 3/4 cup sugar. Then I strained the rhubarb pulp out. This left me with a beautiful pink colored liquid. The cubes were delicious in tea and great in lemonade as well!!! Thanks Stephanie great idea!!!
Tried it as described. Doesn't taste good to me. 4 hours is too long to cook. Turns brown and tastes like molasses. Doesn't freeze solid. Use a spoon to get it out of ice cube tray. Stays on the bottom of the glass and melts then there is all the rhubarb pulp. Better off putting the cooked rhubarb in a jar and freeze or refrigerate and use as a spread on toast or english muffin.

started out in photography using a Canon Powershot A50. I had bought the camera in 2000 because that is when my first son was born. I did not want to miss anything as he grew up and I had never owned a camera before.
==== ==== For more information, to the best prices and a wide range of accessories for the Digital Camera or any Canon Mark II product click the link below: http://canonmarkiiprices.us/ ==== ==== Canon EOS 5D Mark II Digital SLR Camera Review - Brand New Why buy the Canon Digital SLR Camera EOS 5D Mark II? The answer has to be more megapixels. To my knowledge, there is no other brand that provides 21 megapixels, in this same price range. More megapixels equal higher resolution or clarity. But, it also means that the camera will have a higher price. This is one of the highest priced models on the market, but still a worthwhile investment for someone that wants professional quality photos. All Canon EOS series cameras are competitive with the Nikon F series and other autofocus cameras provided by companies such as Olympus, Pentax and Sony. EOS continues to enjoy popularity throughout the world, regardless of the price. As with Nikon and a few other brands, there is a dedicated electronic motor that provides the autofocus function of the lens. In Canon models, the autofocus lenses are known as EF. In Nikon models, the autofocus lenses are designated with an F or an AF. Unlike older autofocus cameras, there are no mechanical parts or levers that could break over time. But, there are a series of electrical contacts that must remain functioning, in order for the autofocus feature of the Canon Digital SLR Camera EOS 5D Mark II to work. If you have been taking pictures for a while and you have ever been caught in a rainstorm, you know what the rain can do to cameras. Rain or water will short out the electrical contacts and ruin the motor, but this is one of Canon's more rugged models. It won't withstand the pressure of deep sea-diving, but it should survive for a few minutes in a down pour. Whether you decide to buy this one or a similarly priced brand, my suggestion is to invest in a waterproof carrying case or box. Some of the ones on the market will allow you to shoot right through the box, even on a rainy day. With the Canon Digital SLR Camera EOS 5D Mark II and other high end professional models, protecting the lenses and electronics from damage is one of my primary goals. If I happen to be doing something in a very dirty or dangerous environment, I take one of my lower-priced cameras along for the trip. Released in 2008, the 5D Mark II replaced the 5D. You might be wondering if there is any reason to buy the newer model, if you already have the 5D. Well, there are some new features that you might be interested in. The Canon Digital SLR Camera EOS 5D Mark II can record 12 minutes of video at a high resolution of 1920X1080. That's a higher resolution and 7 minutes more recording time than you can get from a mid-range Nikon. At lower resolutions, you can get as much as 30 minutes of recording time. So, if you like to shoot home movies, this is one of the better cameras to choose. Other upgrades include live preview and the ability to watch your movies on your high definition TV. Reviews for the Canon Digital SLR Camera EOS 5D Mark II have been mostly positive. I would have to give it 5 stars. ==== ==== For more information, to the best prices and a wide range of accessories for the Digital Camera or any Canon Mark II product click the link below: http://canonmarkiiprices.us/ ==== ====

Cankerworm Spraying Campaign
By editor
Cankerworm Spraying Campaign The City of Charlotte plans to spray up to 70,000 acres of our tree canopy with a pesticide aimed at controlling the cankerworm population. No one debates the devastating effects of the cankerworm on our region's trees, but there are questions about how to best deal with them. We'll learn about the city's spraying campaign, the pesticide in use and more about what cankerworms do. Guests Don McSween - City of Charlotte Arborist Dr. Larry Mellichamp - Professor of Botany, UNC Charlotte Contact the show: 704-926-9323, 800-603-9323, email@example.com or comment at Charlotte Blogs.

Album Notes and Credits
Notes & Personnel Info
|Photographers: Michael P. Smith; Parker Dinkins; Norbert Hess; Jeff Hannusch.
|Unknown Contributor Role: Pierce Smith.
|Check the title -- New Orleans funk is not the same thing as New Orleans R&B or soul, so this may not be the sound that you're expecting. Even if it opens with the Meters, this isn't a compilation that plays to familiar sounds or expectations. Instead, it lays the groundwork for funk as it was known in the '70s or plays forgotten, possibly never-heard sounds from the '70s. So there ain't a single cut here that you will have heard or recognize unless you are an unrepentant New Orleans fanatic; some names are familiar -- the Meters, Lee Dorsey, Eddie Bo, Huey Piano Smith, Allen Toussaint, Dr. John, and Robert Parker -- but apart from Professor Longhair's "Big Chief," there's not a single thing here that regularly makes New Orleans comps or that will be recognized by anyone outside of the devoted. All 24 selections were chosen on one basis -- whether their recorded grooves were funky enough to be sampled and reappropriated to something else. Most of them are, but that may be beside the point, since this is a collection for record collectors who don't specialize in this style -- they're just looking for grooves. And there are some really good grooves here, but as singles a lot of them fall flat, unless they're delivered by somebody as undeniably assured and engaging as Lee Dorsey, whose two cuts wind up sounding like actual songs because he gives them the illusion of structure, even if they're just jams. Some other songs have the same fate, such as Aaron Neville's "Hercules," but this, by and large, is about sound, groove, and texture -- and on those terms it's pretty pleasing. Still, this is not a treasure trove of great lost singles, songs, and performances -- just a collection of good grooves worthy of sampling and making for good listening, providing you're into the sound and feel of the funkier side of New Orleans R&B, not the songs. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine

Eyes on Richmond: How healthy is RG3?
CSN Washington dot com. All right there's a lot of questions going down to Richmond for the Redskins opened training camp but there's one question that stands out way above the rest. I'm here JP Finley with the CSN Washington Redskins team rich stammer tar heel this year and it's time to break down the most famous in America. Fargo this year how healthy is Robert Griffin the third. You know I I made that for a number of months there we are hearing from doctors were and team officials. Unnamed team officials from Robert Griffin the third it's kind of been quiet follow on that front in recent weeks. The one report that does stand out -- we heard that Robert Griffin the third has been smashing. Every test the Redskins have put in front of them -- truth guys is gonna come out on the 24 when he goes down for his physical Richmond. Our doctor James Andrews going to be here the entire medical staff is gonna be there and you know what if he's if he's able to pass all the stats in his cleared. I mean I think there's a decent chance he's gonna be on the field for on for the first day of practice but you I've talked to a number of experts who -- been seen RG three and they all tell me that if if they if they were his his caregiver is doctor they would sit on him for another two or three weeks just to make sure because this -- the severity of the injury it was a ACL revision -- -- second time in LCL and meniscus all that put together means it's gotten a little bit longer afford to heal so. I think fans might feel disappointed the RG might -- this point of the documents and hopefully. Yep yeah and -- nearly a total reconstruction of that -- so there's there's going to be some questions there. It's funny -- said smashing. I remember rich Taylor wrote a story on CSN Washington dot com maybe last week that that exceeding expectations. So there were kind of managing what -- we use to describe her. We're running out of them there at that more than ran out right. And only talk about Indian so many ways. But -- rich you tell us should skins fans expect. RG three to make it -- through the whole season healthy. Well. It if he doesn't make it through you know they've led from couple different things here doesn't make it through the season because his knew he wasn't ready. I don't I don't think that's that's gonna happen I think that it will be as ready as can be. Now. He's playing quarterback in the National Football League. The offensive line did not all the sudden morphed into the 1991 hogs for. You know he is gonna get knocked around a little bit. Who wouldn't it would not surprise me at all to make me miss the game because of a concussion and maybe you know gotten the anger I got to shoulder banged up a little bit you know something along those lines. But if he doesn't miss a game I doubt it will be because of any issues -- -- the me. So you're saying it's the NFL people get hurt it could happen but the knee should be in good sick but I tell you what every time he. He has hit every time he rubs any thing every time me scratch my learning -- Twitter -- gimmicks road right every -- much doubt you'll be doing gifts of it left and right so yeah but you know I think he's he's. If the doctor put him out there he'll be as healthy as you can. A cut well so far everything looks good with Griffin he's he's looked great in mini camp and in during OTA days. Only time's gonna tell with a knee injury. Tar heel this year rich Taylor on JP Finley say it was CSN Washington dot com for all your Redskins training camp coach. CSN Washington dot com.

Check other codes P0740 TCC does not engaged open or short circuit condition, Poor electrical connection failed TTC System, P0706 open in transmission range switch circuit Probable cause Open or short circuit condition Poor electrical connection Faulty transmision range switch firstname.lastname@example.com - fha7
2 Answers
Answer 1
Start by changing the trans fluid (NOT with aftermarket fluid) , then have TCM codes cleared and see what comes back the soonest. If P0740 comes back first , plan on needing a trans. If any of the others , recommend having it serviced/diagnosed at a dealer or reputable trans shop. - ziptie12
Answer 2
sadly , this is a common problem w/ honda vans-there is a screen/filter at the top internally that clogs. more sadly honda nor anyone else has come up permanent fix for this problem. so before you go the rebuild route or new route , understand that this trans life expectancy is about 70k-100k miles - cntsmith

Audrey Seguy Basket: £5 (1 item) Sign out
The Castle is supporting Real Nappy Week 2014 with a display and information on our main staircase provided by the Hackney Real Nappy Network.
As a mum who has exclusively used real nappies, I'm really happy to be able to promote these. They're easy to use, cheaper and will divert (on average) over 3000 nappies per child from landfill. Our nappies have been camping and cragging with us and I actually find it a relief not to have to worry about whether we're ever going to run out. And with baby number two on the way- our savings are going to be even greater!
Real nappies have never been easier to use, with many different options and a £50 voucher from most London boroughs for each child.
My top tips:
If you're considering using real nappies and would like some recommendations drop me an email or see these great websites:
Audrey Seguy, Managing Director
Hooray for us!
The Castle won the Sustainable Building and Sustainable Procurement Awards at the 2011/2012 Sustainable City Awards.
More sustainability...
Saturday 11th July - 12pm to 7pm
Including pizzas, burgers, cakes, cocktails, mini comp and free dyno workshops

Amazing plugin, really.
The only problem i notice is that if you put at the short-code the posts="x" then always at the first page display x+1 tiles at the rest of the pages it show the correct number of tiles.
Per example if you use posts="12" then at first page shows 13 tiles and at all the others pages 12 tiles.

Carson Fellowships
The Rachel Carson Center is part of a funding scheme launched by the Federal Ministry for Education and Research (BMBF) that was devised to internationalize the humanities in Germany. Thus, bringing international scholars to Munich through our Carson Fellowship Program is at the very core of our activities.
Carson Fellows are expected to work in residence on a major research project that pertains to the central theme of the RCC - transformations in environment and society. They should also engage with other fellows and contribute to the programs at the center.
The program is a writing fellowship program; we do not sponsor field trips or archival research.
The deadline for fellowship applications for the 2015-16 class of postdoctoral and senior fellows is 31 January 2015.
For a list of frequently asked questions and answers concerning Carson Fellowships and living in Munich, please click here.

Share your ideas for a better Europe at the European Parliament in Strasbourg during the European Youth Event 2014 (9 - 11 May 2014).
In the last European elections most of the young people that didn't vote pointed the lack of information as the main reason. Now European youth organisations want to change that situation.
Old enough to vote yet? What do you know about elections? Voting is the highest form of participation available for citizens of democratic societies and a right that should be used to the fullest.
Structured Dialogue is a discussion between young people and policy makers about certain themes, to make sure the opinion of young people is taken into account in defining the EU's youth policies.
There are different ways of getting your ideas across, such as voting or Structured Dialogue. But if it's not election time or if your issue is not exactly related to politics, there are other ways you can be heard.

Fortunato Honored With Elite 89 Award
April 18, 2013
The NCAA Men's Gymnastics Championship has not even started yet, but one Gopher has already been recognized for his hard work. Junior Nathan Fortunato was honored with the Elite 89 award this evening at a pre-championship banquet.
The Elite 89, an award founded by the NCAA, recognizes the true essence of the student-athlete by honoring the individual who has reached the pinnacle of competition at the national championship level in his or her sport, while also achieving the highest academic standard among his or her peers. The Elite 89 is presented to the student-athlete with the highest cumulative grade-point average participating at the finals site for each of the NCAA championships.
Fortunato, who is from Bedford, Ohio, and was home-schooled before attending Minnesota, has a 4.00 GPA.
"This is a great honor for Nate," said Minnesota head coach Mike Burns. "It is nice to know that the hard work he puts in every day in the classroom and gym is appreciated. The Elite 89 is such a prestigious award and to be able to bring it home to Minnesota is an amazing honor for our program. Our guys put tremendous effort into their studies, and we also receive excellent academic support through the McNamara Academic Center."
The men's gymnastics team was honored earlier this week with the Outstanding Academic Team Award for small teams (21 student-athletes or less) at the Minnesota Scholar Athlete banquet.
The Gophers are in University Park, Pa., this weekend where they are competing in the NCAA Men's Gymnastic Championship.
