United Kingdom

this wiki
The UK currently has 4 network operators:
- EE (for Everything Everywhere)
- Vodafone
- O2 (by Telefónica)
- 3 (= Three by Hutchison)
3 and O2 agreed on a merger in 2014 and Hutchison wanted to buy O2 from Telefónica, but this was blocked in 2016 by EU competition regulators. About 50 MVNOs operate on EE, Vodafone and O2. 2G/GSM is on 900 and 1800 MHz (except Three which has only 3G and 4G), 3G/UMTS is on 900 and 2100 MHz.
4G/LTE has been started in 2013 on all networks. Frequencies on 800, 1800 and 2600 MHz bands were granted. 4G is offered by all networks on prepaid now, but only on some MVNOs. In 2015 EE has the best 4G/LTE coverage at about 80% of population, while Vodafone, O2 and 3 have all around 60% coverage.
Prepaid is often called "pay as you go (PAYG)" in the UK. The list starts with the network providers according to size followed by the most significant MVNOs on the market.
Nearly all networks have an expiry policy of six months since the last balance increase or decrease. Although this is official policy, it is usually sufficient to receive a call every six months because this generates revenue, albeit small, for the network. The most notable exception is Lycamobile which operates a 90-day expiry policy since the last balance increase or decrease in all of the markets in which it operates. For visitors, the easiest way to maintain validity while outside the UK, in order to keep both credit and the mobile number for future visits to the UK, is to send a roaming SMS every 6 months.
"Content Lock"Edit
Prepaid SIM cards in the UK are delivered with a so called "Content Lock" in place. This is to protect children from accessing adult content. The problem is that a whitelisting approach is used for this, meaning that everything that has not been actively approved as non-adult will be treated as "adult".
This can seriously interfere with your internet accessibility, e.g. some users could not use their instant messaging services. Even emails and all "unguided" forums like Facebook or Twitter can be affected. However this can be bypassed using a VPN or proxy app/software to conceal your identity
The usual way to disable the content lock is to enter credit card data to prove your age; but this only works with UK-issued credit cards, and as a tourist you probably won't have one of those.Therefore when you buy a new SIM card in store insist that the lock will be removed right away (takes 1 minute). For this you may need to provide some form of ID to prove your age, if you look young.
Topping up your SIM online in many cases requires a UK-issued credit or debit card, but this is variable, even from one card to another with the same network. There are some private service providers on the net like mobiletopup.co.uk or Top Up UK who accept international cards and do it for a surcharge. Mobiletopup charges a flat per-order surcharge, no matter how many vouchers you buy. If you don't have a UK credit or debit card, you need to buy top-up vouchers which are widely available in shops throughout the UK, but refills from abroad not having one of these is tricky. Topping up via cash machines (ATMs) is also widely accepted but again you may only do this if you have a UK-based credit or debit card.
EE (formerly called Everything Everywhere) was created in 2010 after the merger of Orange UK and T-Mobile UK to become the largest operator in the UK under the joint ownership of Orange (formerly France Télécom) and Deutsche Telekom. BT announced in February 2015 that it had agreed to acquire EE, subject to regulatory approval expected by March 2016. EE's 2G is on 1800 MHz, 3G/UMTS on 2100 MHz with the best coverage in the UK at 98%. They were the first to start 4G/LTE in 2013 on 1800 Mhz and later on 800 and 2600 MHz too: EE coverage map. They have the best 4G coverage reaching almost 90% of population in 2015. 4G+ or double speed LTE is available in about 20 major cities so far. In benchmark tests EE is frequently the top scorer in the UK.
EE now only sells SIM cards with 4G/LTE included with no surcharge. Their prepaid SIM is called "4GEE" including 4G/LTE. 4G+ is "double speed" LTE with average download rates of 24-30 Mbps instead of 12-15 Mbps.

T-Mobile and Orange Edit
T-Mobile UK and Orange UK were merged to EE (see above) in 2010. Existing prepaid customers can still use 2G/3G of EE network, but not 4G/LTE.
Effective of Feb. 2015 EE has discountinued all new plans for T-Mobile and Orange through direct sales at EE stores, from March 2015 through indirect channels. Existing customers have grandfathering and can stay on the old brands.
You might still get old starter packs on eBay or other platforms for a while. But officially, they have been withdrawn from the market. So we don't list them anymore.

3 (= Three) UKEdit
3 (Three) has the smallest network of all operators in the UK but the most agressive pricing. Three is a 3G and 4G network only with only a voice/text fallback to EE 3G in some low coverage areas. The text and call coverage can be much worse in the countryside compared to the three big ones. 3 coverage map You need to have a 3G UMTS phone on 2100 MHz and for 4G a device which can transmit on 800 and 1800 MHz. 2G-only phones don't work on Three.
Three has launched 4G services in late 2013 charging the same for 4G as it does for 3G, unlike the other three primary networks which all surcharge for 4G. It covers about 53% of population with 4G in 2015 giving Three the lowest coverage in the UK, but growing fast.
The SIM card is given out for free. They have different products for phones and computers.
Pay as you go on ThreeEdit
This product is for smartphones only and does not include tethering. It will be blocked if detected. For tablets and modems see the Mobile Broadband offer.
Default rateEdit
Very low 1p per MB (that's £10 per GB)
Data feature packsEdit

Vouchers are available for £10, £15, £20, £25, £30 and £50 and must be activated within 90 days of purchase online or by calling 444. Credit doesn't expire on Three SIMs.
Mobile BroadbandEdit
Their Mobile Broadband pay-as-you-go SIM is a data-only SIM with text but no voice calls for tablets, modems or routers. You can use it in smartphones too, to circumvent their tethering restrictions. They are often sold as ready-to-go kits with data volume preloaded:
- SIM card with 3 GB data valid for 3 months: £16
- SIM card with 12 GB data valid for 12 months: £30
You can top up online on your My3account with these data packages:
- pay-per-day: 500 MB for 48 hours: £2.99
- 1 GB in a month: £10
- 3 GB in a month: £15
- 7 GB in a month: £25
Data Reward SIM Edit
In 2016 Three introduced their new "Data Reward SIM" to match the offer of FreedomPop (see below). It's aimed at tablet and modems, but contains voice and texts too. So there seem to be no restrictions where to use it whatsoever.
- SIM card with 1 GB valid for 30 days
When registered, the "Data Reward SIM" gives 200 MB high-speed data every month for free. This volume doesn't roll over, but can be used on their "Feel at Home" option too. The cycle depends on the day of activation. The "Data Reward SIM" can be added with these monthly bundles booked through your account:
All usage outside of these packages is at very low 1p per MB in the UK and 3.6-4.3p per MB in 'Feel like home countries'. You can register a maximum of 5 Data Reward SIM cards on your name.
"Feel At Home" Option Edit
This roaming option is available to all pay-as-you-go SIMs of Three UK and is valid in Austria, Australia, Denmark, Finland, France, Hong Kong, Indonesia, Israel, Italy, Macau, New Zealand, Norway. Ireland, Spain, Sri Lanka, Sweden, Switzerland and in the US (on both AT&T and T-Mobile networks!!). It is enabled automatically when entering one of these countries above with a Three UK SIM on roaming and means that data is charged the same like in the UK with no roaming surcharges at all. More info in the European Union section of this WIKI at Euro3.
Tethering is officially not allowed on any prepaid SIM card of Three. On their "Pay as you go" product, Three verifies if you use it on a smartphone by TTL detection; tablet and modem use is banned, as well as tethering to it. On their "Mobile Broadband" product, tethering is only officially banned, but not blocked. This means that you will not receive a profile to use it for tethering on an iPhone. Tethering from Android devices still works, on roaming too, verified 26/4/15, no matter what Three sales reps. are telling you.
As Three sells a combination of a Huawei E5330 Mobile WiFi (MiFI) with a preloaded 3GB/3 months SIM (http://store.three.co.uk/view/plan/MBBD02072014T090233) use in a MiFi seems to be permitted.

Giffgaff is a wholly owned subsidiary of O2 UK, and operates as MVNO on O2 UK (for technical info see O2). Since 2nd September 2015, giffgaff has provided 4G/LTE at no additional cost.
GiffGaff SIMs can be ordered online to a UK address for free with delivery by 1st Class post usually within 2 to 3 days. Or you can be introduced by any member of giffgaff and get £5 free credit on activation. Until 30th May 2016, the member him/herself also receives 500 points worth £5 of balance on activation of the new SIM. From 1st June 2016, the member will receive 500 points only for the first 15 referrals in a lifetime. The SIM is despatched by giffgaff in the same way, not by the member, but giffgaff remembers that you were introduced by another member when you activate the SIM. If you would like to be introduced by an existing member with UK delivery, here are some member links to choose from:
There are also a couple of members who can send a free SIM card (with the above £5 free credit deal) to an address outside the UK so that you already have your SIM before you travel. In this case, the SIM is not despatched by giffgaff but by the member. The member uses some of the £5 free credit (until 30th May 2016) to fund the international postage, and therefore makes a loss if you do not subsequently activate the SIM (or do so from 1st June 2016 onwards). Here are the links for the order pages:
To activate your SIM on their website, you ideally need a UK-issued credit or debit card, otherwise you can credit your account with a top-up voucher. Some people have successfully used non-UK credit and debit cards by incorrectly entering a UK billing address. You can buy credit from many UK convenience stores and almost all supermarkets and petrol stations (ask for giffgaff or O2 cards) and can also buy top up vouchers online at private facilitators like mobiletopup.co.uk or Top Up UK for a surcharge. Mobiletopup charges a flat per-order surcharge, no matter how many vouchers you buy.
Default rateEdit
- Each day, 20p/MB for the first 1MB, then the subsequent 19MB are free, then 20p/MB for further usage that day.
Data feature packsEdit
- £5 for 500 MB per month
- £7.50 for 1 GB per month
Over-use is charged at 2p per MB.
Combined bundles ("goodybags")Edit
All these bundles come with included UK calls, texts and a combined 2G/3G/4G data volume:
|UK calls*
|UK texts
|100 min
|250 min
|500 min
|500 min
|1000 min
|2000 min
|unlimited ^
- All bundles are valid for one month.
- (*) = Calls amongst giffgaff numbers are free.
- (^) = First 6GB each month at 4G speeds, then throttled at 256kbps from 8am to midnight.
- No "fair use policy" applies meaning unlimited data are really unlimited.
SIM sizesEdit
Giffgaff now issues trio-SIMs, i.e. a mini-SIM, micro-SIM and nano-SIM all in one.
Tethering is allowed on the bundle that has unlimited data included but is limited to 6gb.

- for a top up of £15 with 3000 texts and 3 GB of data
- Note: Reward texts and data are applied from the 1st of the calendar month following your top up and last all month. So you can use it only in the following month of your top-up..
- overuse rate is the default data rate (see above)
- to activate call 789 and press 3
SIM sizesEdit
Stock standard SIMs & Micro SIM
Tethering (at least on Android phones) and VoIP possible
Further infoEdit
If you want to use the Virgin Mobile SIM in a 3G Wifi Router, be aware you'll need to call the company through the SIM you're about to use for data (to activate the Big Data Pack). This may cause problems since routers are not made to call someone (duh!) Furthermore, if your 3G Router needs another SIM format than your phone, you might also encounter problems to activate the tariff.
There is no other way to activate the option than calling Virgin through the SIM. You cannot activate it via their website or SMS. In this case make sure you have an old phone available to activate the desired option.

Post Office Mobile Edit
UPDATE: The UK Post Office is set to close down a shortlived attempt to build a UK mobile phone network service as its offering was unable to compete in the crowded British mobile telecoms market.
The MVNO service run by the UK's Post Office is to be shut down on August 08th, 2016 after an unsuccessful trial period. The service launched in June 2015 ran on EE's network and was seen as a play to compete with UK retail giants like Tesco and Sainsbury's, which have similar offerings.
In a statement, the group announced it will stop selling to new mobile customers with immediate effect, while existing customers have three months to find a new provider before the service is withdrawn.
Bundles Edit Default data rate is 10p per MB. For packages they offer combined bundles with domestic voice, text and data included, all valid for 30 days:

FreedomPop is a new US-based MVNO which started in September 2015 on the Three network in 3G only (for coverage see Three). The UK is their first commercial launch outside of the US with their new business model. They give out a small amount of data, calls and texts for free in hope that you buy more allowances later. FreedomPop plans to bring its service to seven other countries within the next year, and to over 20 markets by the year 2017.
Availability Edit
Their SIM card can only be ordered online to be delivered to an UK postal address only. There are plans to sell it in stores, but they have not turned up yet. This makes it inconvenient for travellers, but as an exception we list online-only operators when they give out data for free. The SIM card however is sold for a price: £6.99 for start-up and UK delivery.
They started commercial operations in the UK in September 2015 and need to work on their 250,000 customers on the waiting list. So you can also expect some waiting time.
Every SIM card is linked to a credit or debit card for payment and top-ups. Non-UK issued cards are accepted.
Free allowances Edit
In every month 200 MB data, 200 domestic SMS and 200 domestic minutes are given out for free. Data overuse is charged at 1.5p per MB on the free plan. You can also earn more free data by taking part in third-party offers like filling in a survey or downloading a coupon.
Combined packages for pay Edit
These additional monthly bundles can be added:
- £8.99: 1 GB data, 1000 domestic texts, 1000 domestic minutes
- £11.99: 2 GB data, unlimited domestic texts and minutes
Extra data as overuse for pay plans is 1p per MB, instead of the 1.5p/MB on the free plan.
You can roll over unused data to the next month for £1.49 per month. A maximum of 500 MB can be rolled over and a maximum of 20 GB can be stored.
Restrictions Edit
Beware of a few catches. You should immediately turn off "auto top-up" on your online account, which is turned on by default. Here is why:
- They will automatically top up your account by £10 of credit when you're within 100 MB of your download allowance. This means you're only able to use 100 MB without paying anything extra using auto top-up.
- As payment details are held on record and used automatically for when you incur additional charges, it's very easy to accidentally run up a bill by surprise. If you'd like to receive a notification when your allowances have been used up, they charge an extra 99p per month for this service.
All calls are routed via VoIP. This means that you need to have a stable and pretty fast data connection to make calls. This is a service, that Three is not always renowned of and beta testers have been critical of the sound quality. For classical voice telephony you'll pay another £1.49 per month for their "premium voice add-on".

I rather enjoyed Stitch, but we'll probably never do it again, as my DH almost puked when Stitch burped chili cheese dogs on us. He claims he kept having flashbacks and getting nauseous for the rest of the day!
Personally, I would never do Space Mountain again, as it is probably the most terrified I've ever been in my life. I am deathly afraid of roller coasters.
And we'll never do Captain EO again either! I really should have been born in the 80s, I love 80's music, I love camp, I love Michael Jackson, I love animatronics and puppets and everything like that, and still this was one of the worst experiences I've had at the World. Honestly the ONLY thing that saved it was the air conditioning. I was bored to tears.
Although its not a ride The Swiss Family Treehouse is an attraction I will never go on again just a complete waste of time. I get a bit nauseous on a few rides (Tea Cups,Star Tours,Rock and Roller, Everest) so I normally won't go on them but I think they are all worth trying.

Edit Article
High School is a hard time for everyone, but if you dress in Lolita fashion, it can be a nightmare! Here is how to do it the right way.
This article has been tagged as a stub.
That means it's off to a good start, but still has room to grow into a more helpful resource. Until the article reaches its full potential, it will be hidden from search results. Can you help it flourish? If you think the article offers complete and accurate instructions, feel free to remove this tag.
1Get some 'Lolita' inspired clothing. Before School starts, you might want to find Lolita inspired clothing for the first few weeks of school. For example, Forever 21, Charlotte Russe, and thrift stores have many nice vintage/inspired clothing. Hot Topic has some nice punkier pieces, or your favorite store might have just what you are looking for. But unless you have a full Lolita wardrobe, it helps to have some"normal" outfits.
2Ease into Lolita slowly. A new school is hard to adjust into to, especially if you do not know anyone. You should ease into Lolita over these first two weeks. Tell your new friends about Lolita, and maybe they'll ask you to wear it for them! You could start off with a skirt (no petticoat) and a simple blouse or tee-shirt. Slowly add in Lolita shoes, petticoats, small bows, and knee high socks. Clothes are important, but it's good to make sure you make a good impression and start off your academics with a bang!
3Prepare to be laughed at, somewhat. Most people will not accept Lolita with open arms. They might make fun of you, start rumors, or just be rude. But remember they are the one ignoring a human being because of how the dress. Explain Lolita kindly to them, or just avoid the situation completely by walking away. Don't do it in a snobby way, though! A little bit of kindness goes a long way- and you want to create a non-snobby image.
4Have fun dressing up. If you are wearing Lolita, you most likely enjoy the fun that comes with dressing up. Always have a positive attitude and enjoy yourself! You will not even remember the rude people in High School, just the ones that helped you along the way.
5Decorate your binders, backpacks, pencils, pens, notebooks, and anything else with stickers, roses, fake sweets, and plastic bows. It will look out of place if your items do not match your outfit! Help others when you can, and always smile at everyone. Make the best out of these years, and do it your way!
Community Q&A
Ask a Question
- Dress in theme-loli for Spirit Weeks or Holidays.
- Don't change yourself for others.
- Remember to study!
- Remember, it is a School. Sometimes Lolita will not be appropriate.
- Make sure you wigs, if you wear them, look natural. There's a time and a place for crazy curly neon split wigs, and school isn't it.
- Don't go full-blown OTT sweet! Not only will people laugh, you may be asked by teachers to take it off.
- People will make fun. Just ignore them.
- You have to change for gym class! Check to see if your petticoat can fit in your locker.
- Hats and headpieces are usually not allowed inside the school. You may want to decorate your hair using a smaller bow or hairclip, and save the hat for outdoors and after school.
- Sometimes teachers will be rude. Maybe you should take off the Head Eating Bow and slip on a cardigan for their classes.

Average Comp Rises To $403,281 As Goldman Offsets Decline In FICC, Equity Trading With Prop Revenue At 2 Year High
Moments ago Goldman reported its Q1 earnings which were strong enough to beat the highest Wall Street estimate, printing at $4.29 on an estimate range of $3.33 to $4.27/share. Revenue was $10.09 billion on estimates of $9.65 billion. What is notable is that while the bank is eating the lunch of its competitors, as it tends to do, in virtually all revenue categories (IB at $1.41 billion, FICC $3.22 bn, Equities: $1.92 bn, Investment Management $1.32 bn, and Prop trading $2.07 bn), it still was unable to match its prior year revenue in the key "client flow" categories of FICC and equities, which dropped from $3.46 billion to $3.22 bn, and $2.25 bn to $1.92 bn, respectively. How did Goldman offset the secular decline in market participation by everyone else? By doing what it does best: prop trading - in Q1 the firm's "Investing and lending" group, aka its Prop group, reported revenue of $2.068 billion (highlighted in the chart below) well higher than the $1.973 billion in Q4 and $1.911 a year earlier. This was the highest prop trading revenue reported by Goldman since Q1 2011 when, as we reported in February, the world was on the verge of being fixed. It wasn't, and the result was a collapse in Goldman prop trading in Q2 2011. Will this year repeat? This remains to be seen.
However, for now, Goldman's employees are happy: in Q1 compensation benefits were $4.34 billion, or 43% of revenue. And with Goldman reporting "only" 32,000 total staff at period end, or the lowest since the great financial crisis, the average compensation per employee is once again above the "psychological" $400K barrier, or $403,281 on a trailing 12 month basis to be exact. Bollinger time, boys.
- advertisements -
$400k worth of shit each; average
These assholes are the "takers". The guy who works his ass off for $12 an hour and is so poor that he doesn't pay income tax. He is a "maker". Goldman Sachs produces absolutely nothing for society! Cunts all of them!
Relax, when the supply lines break. The skilled craftsman and his reliable tribe will be better positioned.
Thank you muppets, errr clients.
Another false flag attack, another record Goldman compensation announcement.
If you don't think those two things are connected-- however distantly-- you are not paying attention.
Same as it ever was. Nothing will change until guillotines come out and the heads start rolling. Move along. Absolute power corrupts, absolutely.
They don't have to print real numbers now that Holder has their back.
...and its any wonder how the hell they have clients to begin with. Seriously, all you hear about is how they fucked over their clients, especially when it comes to M&A. Why do businesses continue to utilize this company is beyond me.
I don't like getting raped, so I prefer to not be in it.
Their "clients" are some pretty big institutional investors. Many pension plans from around the world for example. None of the people who actually rely on these pensions probably even fucking know that Goldman is managing their future. Ignorant fucking sheep.
Little celebration going on in DC. Blankfein,Holder, Obowel Movement, Bernanke are all blowing each other
I am shocked! Shocked! That the bank who has it's tentacles in central banks and governments around the world is able to eat it's "competitors" lunch like this.
If you can't beat 'em, join 'em...
I see Lloyd is growing a beard.
Sorta makes him look a little like Moses.
"God I give you the 15 Command...ooops, nay TEN Commandments. I give you the TEN Commandments!"
blankfiend to gathered vp's(after brief pat his own back), everybody back to work, there is money out there to steal...
Goldman just got stopped out of gold now it's back over $1400.
Funny how the psychology thing can be confusing. "if I tell the public one thing but do the opposite for my clients was I suppose to be...
Dow falls 265 yesterday.
Dow is up 129 before the open.
And the gong show continues - more record highs on their way.
Between the BoJ and the Fed, that 100 billion per month has to go somewhere.
up, down and carefully front running, nice job, that was easy.
wish i new where the market was going and when it will turn and be ahead for each and every gain up or down.
oh, shit, maybe that is why i don't trade anymore...
How did Goldman offset the secular decline in market participation by everyone else? By doing what it does best: prop trading
Because, when it's serious you have to lie and skim from your clients.
Just doing God's work, day in, day out. Who knew God was so lucrative? Maybe its time for an LBO of God? His shares are tremendously undervalued and his kingdow would be worth more if it was split up and sold in pieces.
Somebody get me an underwriter...
when wall st makes expectations so fucking low, every company is going to beat.
that is why earnings for now at least are the most overrated thing in the market ( i know that sounds weird because markets are supposed to trade on earnings) because they have made expectations so low, its impossible to miss pretty much.
of course with this, the overall market is somehow on there way to wiping out all of yesterdays losses, not that i am surprised or anything, its the fucking joke bernanke is.
OT, But interesting My Gainesville order of 500 toz delayed three weeks..
*UPDATE: ALL US WHOLESALE SUPPLIERS ARE NOW SOLD OUT OF EVERY OUNCE OF PHYSICAL SILVER & HAVE SUSPENDED ALL SALES! SDBullion.com has closed due to lack of ANY AVAILABLE SILVER!
Two of the largest wholesale suppliers in the US, including Amark and CNT, who is the supplier of gold blanks to the US Mint for Gold Eagles, and is a registered COMEX depository, HAVE JUST SOLD OUT OF ALL PHYSICAL SILVER!!!
In the face of an EPIC TSUNAMI of gold and silver sales today as the cartel hammered the price of silver down over 12%, and off $6 from Friday's open, we have just been informed at SDBullion upon trying to place a large inventory order that BOTH AMARK & CNT ARE SOLD OUT OF EVERY LAST OUNCE OF PHYSICAL SILVER!!!
Apparently the fact that one of the largest wholesale suppliers in the US is SOLD OUT, while simultaneously the 2nd largest silver mine in the US is offline perhaps permanently is of absolutely no consequence to the paper dumping cartel bullion banks.
Bullion bank silver shorts are most likely covering in mass RIGHT NOW, and we'll soon have the data to make the case. Many have speculated that the bullion banks are going to switch to a net long position. There couldn't be a better time to do just that given that at $22/oz, pretty much all existing shorts taken out before this week will be in the money.
16% of US Annual Silver Supply Just Vaporized
They knocked the price down and then moved their money out of paper gold promises and into any contract where they can get their hands on the Physical stuff.......leaving all the bag holders with paper promises. You can bank on it.
We realize the paper price has gone down.....but there's no way in hell we're gonna sell the real stuff to you for that.
America, where the only thing that pays is crime.
Good year for Goldman, bad year for Muppets....
somebody has to do the God's work regardless of such despicabely low compensation.........well, there is always next quarter....
was there a pomo yesterday? if not, it all makes sense why yesterday was a selloff and today we r back up.
bernanke probably printing the futures up like crazy since lastnight to ensure we recover all the losses.

Hello and welcome back to Second Chance to Live my friend. On February 6, 2007 at the encouragement of a friend, I took the risk to create a weblog and I named that web log, Second Chance to Live. Today marks the 6th year anniversary of the web log that I created: Second Chance to Live.
For many years I felt like some one all dressed up with no where to go. No one wanted what I had to give although I diligently applied myself both academically and vocationally. Consequently, I spent many years of my life feeling minimized, marginalized, dismissed and discounted. But I am glad that I did not give up.
Although I am a traumatic brain injury survivor, I am not my traumatic brain injury. I am not limited because I have deficits and limitations. Rather I am empowered because I have found and accepted what does not work for me. I am empowered to succeed, by using what works for me.
Although I did not know where Second Chance to Live would lead 6 years ago, I am glad that I did kept using my gifts, talents and abilities in ways that work for me. As I have written articles and created video presentations I have learned things about myself and have in turn shared them with you.
"If you advance confidently in the direction of your dreams and endeavor to live the life that you have imagined…you will meet with a success unexpected in common hours." Henry David Thoreau
During the past 72 month Second Chance to Live has been honored in many ways, as I have sought to be of service. To see a list of some of these honors click on this link http://wp.me/P3atD-oK. I share these honors with you to encourage you – if you feel like no one wants what you have to give.
Do not give up on yourself, your process, your dreams or your destiny my friend. More will be revealed to you in time. The pieces of the puzzle will come together – for both you and myself – at the right time and in the right order. Our best days are out in front of us. Trust a loving God to guide you.
"Insist on yourself, never imitate. Your own gift you can present every moment with the cumulative force of a whole life's cultivation; but of the adopted talent of another you have only an extemporaneous half-possession…Do that which is assigned to you and you can not hope too much or dare too much." Ralph Waldo Emerson

This book gives further testimony, if such be needed, to the insolubility of the problem of "publication explosion." Lange and Pavlovic-Kentera in their opening paragraph make the following statement: "Erythropoietin, which stimulates the formation of red blood cells, has been the subject of numerous editorials (three), reviews (twenty-three), sections of book (three), and finally entire books (three)." Perusal of the bibliography reveals that these 32 works were written between 1959 and 1963. If this reflects the state of affairs in other fields, and by and large it does, then it is obvious that no solution short of a complete moratorium on reviews will afford much relief to the reading public. Perhaps some day there will be a rule, written or unwritten, that review articles will not appear too frequently.

As the survey of model building in Ireland (Fanning and Bradley, 1982) identified most of the Irish macromodels are short-term in nature. One model, COMET ? 1976 (Barten et al., 1976), was an important attempt to build a medium-term model, but a number of models had features which make them to varying degrees, suitable for medium-term analysis. The concern of this paper is with the design of such a policy analysis model. In short-term modelling a fairly ad hoc methodological approach is often acceptable since inconsistencies or systematic divergencies from underlying trends are less important in the short-term. However, medium-term modelling brings into play the entire model structure in a more fundamental way and systematic changes in behaviour lie at the very heart of the analysis. To illustrate this we examine, in the next subsection, one of the larger models of the Irish economy from a medium-term perspective.

In Loving Memory of Ben Tucker Savannah's Diplomat Leaves a Legacy of Music & Service - SAVANNAH - Ben Tucker, legendary jazz musician, community icon, and benevolent spirit had a smile that opened doors and established friendships all over the world. At the age of 82, on June 4, 2013, Ben Tucker was killed when a speeding car hit his golf cart after enjoying a game of golf at his second home, The Westin Savannah Harbor Golf Club. Benjamin Mayor Tucker, Ph.D, affectionately known as BT Jazz, made a life-long contribution to the world of jazz. Mr. Tucker has performed and recorded over a 50-year span with various artists, including: Art Blakey, Freddy Cole, Benny Goodman, Earl Fatha Hines, Shirley Horn, B.B. King, Herbie Mann, Marian McPartland, Mel Torme and Peggy Lee to name a few. The multi-talented musician and successful business man was admired by many for his illuminating gift to bring people together regardless of age, ethnicity or belief. One of Ben's proudest accomplishments was a jazz tribute to Nelson Mandela. Ben Tucker's distinguished accomplishments were recognized by leaders in music, business, presidents, leaders throughout the world. Yet, he remained humble and was a very down to earth person. Ben established friendships with his charming smile. Ben Tucker was loved and embraced by the Savannah community where he and his wife Gloria Tucker lived for 42 years. Ben Tucker was born in Brentwood, Tennessee, December 13, 1930, to parents Joseph Sullivan Tucker and Carrie Ann (Claiborne) Tucker. Ben and his first wife were the parents of Sabra (passed 1996) and Wayne Tucker who were raised in Pasadena, California. He served in the Air Force in 1952. He later married Gloria Daly in New York (1966). She was his inspiration for one of the biggest hits in the country, he wrote for Mrs. Tucker, Coming Home Baby. Ben loved Gloria unconditionally based on his Christian belief, which he displayed in all aspects of his life. A successful musician, businessman, and community leader, Ben Tucker has influenced the world of jazz. He learned the fundamentals of music while in high school and entered Tennessee State University as music major. Ben's success as a musician did not go unrecognized. He appeared before the house Sub-Committee on Communications and the Federal Communications Commission with testimony that resulted in changing the economic strata for black entrepreneurs. A leader with a purpose, Mr. Tucker was appointed to the Selective Service Board by President Carter and reappointed by President Reagan. In 1976, Benjamin Mayor Tucker received an Honorary Degree of Doctor of Humanities which was conferred upon him from B. F. Lee Theological Seminary. In l979, President Carter appointed Dr. Tucker to the Advisory Committee of the Arts for the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performance Art. In addition, he served on the Georgia Fair Employment Practices Advisory Board from 1979-1983. He received special recognition from the Kennedy Center's National Committee for the Performing Arts in April of 2013. The City of Savannah has benefitted from his musical talent, knowledge, leadership and charitable skills. Ben became the owner and operator of Hard-Hearted Hannah's, a jazz club, which opened in September 15, 1985 and closed 1993. In 1972, he purchased WSOK radio station in Savannah which became # 1 for 13 years. Mr. Tucker served on numerous boards and committees to use his influence to sustain organizations that benefitted the community. Community engagement was his creed and the synergy he contributed to schools, youth organizations and adult learning, colleges, churches, and community business, was a part of his life's work. Ben was a friend and partner to thousands. Ben's creative development brought him to music and his cognitive development brought him to the game of golf and leadership.

For the 14th-ranked Eagles (4-2, 3-1), senior quarterback Matt Nichols threw for 354 yards to become the school's all-time leader with 10,315 passing yards.

Central Washington 34, at Humboldt State 27
Central Washington (7-0, 2-0) overcame a 20-13 halftime deficit with three second-half touchdowns, including two by senior Randall Eldridge of Lynnwood, as the fourth-ranked Wildcats held off an upset-minded Humboldt State (3-3, 0-3) in a Great Northwest Athletic Conference game. The win was Central's 13th straight in the regular season and its 27th straight over a GNAC member.
Menlo 14, at Puget Sound 3
The Loggers (0-4, 0-1 Northwest Conference) held Menlo (2-4, 1-1) to 3 yards rushing, but the Oaks got a couple big plays and the Loggers offense couldn't respond.
Menlo was led by Cruz Castillo's 272 yards passing and two touchdowns.
Idaho 29, at San Jose St. 25
DeMaundray Woolridge scored on a 5-yard run with just over a minute to play to give Idaho a victory over San Jose State, ending a four-game losing streak to the Spartans (1-4, 0-1 WAC).
The winning drive was directed by backup quarterback Brian Reader, who took over after starter Nathan Enderle threw his second interception of the fourth quarter.
Woolridge rushed for 93 yards and scored twice for the Vandals (5-1, 2-0), who are seeking their first winning season in 10 years.
Princeton McCarty rushed for 125 yards and a touchdown.
At Gustavus Adolphus 34, Pacific Lutheran 33
Greg Ford broke his own school record with 292 receiving yards for the Lutes (1-3), but his effort went for naught when the Gusties (2-3) scored the winning touchdown on a 1-yard pass with 12 seconds remaining in the game.
Linfield 38, at Whitworth 20
The Pirates (2-4, 0-2 NWC) had six turnovers and lost two quarterbacks to injury. Aaron Williams ran for 102 yards and three touchdowns as the seventh-seeded Wildcats remained unbeaten at 5-0 (2-0 in the NWC) and clinched their 54th consecutive winning season — extending the record.
Top 25 games
No. 22 Georgia Tech 49, at Florida State 44
Josh Nesbitt ran for three touchdowns and threw for another to lead Georgia Tech to a win at Florida State, handing the reeling Seminoles their third straight loss amid growing pressure for coach Bobby Bowden to retire at the end of the season.
The Seminoles are 2-4 for the first time since 1976, which was Bowden's first season at FSU.
There's speculation now that this could be Bowden's final season. He hasn't had a losing season since '76, but the chairman of the university's board of trustees last week publicly called for an end to the Bowden era. Jim Smith's comments set off a firestorm of controversy and speculation about Bowden's future.
At Arkansas 44, No. 17 Auburn 23
Michael Smith rushed for 145 yards and a touchdown, and Arkansas held off a late Auburn rally to hand the Tigers their first loss.
Arkansas jumped out to a 34-3 lead before Auburn (5-1, 2-1 Southeastern Conference) responded with a three-touchdown flurry toward the end of the third quarter. Dennis Johnson helped the Razorbacks (3-2, 1-2) regain momentum with a 70-yard kickoff return, and Arkansas shut out the Tigers in the fourth.
At No. 19 Oklahoma 33, Baylor 7
Heisman Trophy winner Sam Bradford threw for 389 yards and a touchdown in his return from a shoulder injury and Chris Brown had two short scoring runs for the Sooners (3-2).
At No. 12 Iowa 30, Michigan 28
Ricky Stanzi threw for 284 yards and two touchdowns and Iowa (6-0, 2-0 Big Ten) survived yet another close call, beating Michigan (4-2, 0-2) for its best start since 1985.

Awesome Music:
- Paul's Boutique is the most frequently named; a dense, sample-heavy masterpiece of multiple genres all finding a comfortable axis through Hip-Hop.
- Even though the boys later distanced themselves, Licensed to Ill is still one of the biggest party records of The '80s. It's all hip hop with heavy metal riffs, drinking, partying and getting laid.
- "Intergalactic", a retro-futuristic old school track.
- Check Your Head saw the Beasties pick up their instruments again, and what came out was a sick fusion of hip hop, funk, jazz, punk and whatever else they conjured up on a whim.
- "Sabotage" is an awesome song and an awesome video.

.- After being detained for more than 32 days, four Catholics of the underground Church in China in the province of Xinjang were recently released by the government.
According to the China Aid Association, which works for freedom of religion in China, the four Catholics were freed after having been tortured by their guards and cellmates.
On the same day that they were released, the Office of Religious Affairs closed down a domestic church in Anhui, after threatening to impose "grave consequences" on hundreds of underground Catholics who meet there.

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) - Noel Fox, a former bass singer with the Oak Ridge Boys who became a power in the music business, died at a Nashville hospital after surgery following a series of strokes. He was 63.
Fox was born and raised in Columbia, about 40 miles south of Nashville. He sang with the Oak Ridge Boys for five years before leaving in 1972 for a Nashville music business career that included booking, talent management and publishing.
In 1978, Fox began managing the Oak Ridge Boys' publishing entity, Silverline/Goldline Music Inc. He later served as vice president of MCA Music/Nashville and president of Maypop Music Group, which was owned by members of the group Alabama.
An early champion of singer-songwriter Steve Earle, Fox signed him to a publishing deal and introduced him to then-MCA Records producer Tony Brown. MCA subsequently signed Earle and released his 1986 debut hit "Guitar Town."

"Tihany" Top 5 Page for this destination Tihany by Cromatida
Tihany Travel Guide: 45 reviews and 173 photos
Tihany is a village on the northern shore of Lake Balaton on the Tihany Peninsula (Hungary). The whole peninsula is a historical district.
The center of the district is the Benedictine Abbey, which was founded in 1055 by András (Andrew) I, who is buried in the crypt. (The founding charter of this abbey is the first extant record of Hungarian language, preserved in Pannonhalma Benedictine Archabbey.) The church itself was rebuilt in baroque style in 1754. The still functioning abbey is a popular tourist attraction due to the historical and artistic significance. It also has the best view of Lake Balaton.

as long as AGNC pays a respectable dividend ( 10 % or more ) , I for one will be ahead of the curve but this curve is about three years out since the share price is well below that of the one that I bought into.. I'm willing to stick it out. As long as I don't sell, I will only have a 'paper loss'. Meantime I'm collecting a dividend that is unmatched by others. I've already made about 35% of my initial investment back based on dividends. Break even on paper will be about two years from now if you include the dividend. If AGNC goes 'belly up' in six years or so, then I break even (barely- this is extreme) but really lose because of inflation maybe. This was not a bad gamble to take for me knowing that REITs are a "chancy" 'investment'. I'm not here pushing for anyone to buy anymore AGNC but to just examine your overall " positions' " before selling,holding or even buying more. If this is a major part of your portfolio then a decision should be made whereby you can go to sleep at night.
Sentiment: Hold
I bought AGNC nearly 5 years ago at about $15.00 and have been cashing out all dividends and will continue to do so for the next 5 years.
Sentiment: Hold
I bought in '08 also at about same avg price. Congrats on holding on - your return has been over 150%...my only mistake was selling out too soon around 27 and missing years of divs waiting for price to drop. But now I have bought back in last few weeks. Seems like we will have another couple of months to bottom fish at well below BV prices though. GL!
What if the share price goes below $1 because they own a lot of low interest rate loans that no one wants to refinance and they can't SPO to get money to buy new loans because the serious money is afraid that they might go bankrupt? Will it be OK then? This scenario is very possible. And since you know it is going lower then why not get out and buy back many more shares than you sold and make even more money. Your logic escapes me. Why the need to ride it down? The larger institutional sellers need you to ride it down but what do you owe them? Are you just a nice guy?
This will not stay this low forever.
BV will be back to 27 by the end of Aug.
This is a good company, with good management.
The Strong Sell Trolls are short and trying to scare you.
Put them on ignore.
Exactly why will BV be 27 by the end of Aug? It is not obvious to most why this should be.
With the expectation that interest rates are to rise it would be illogical to conclude that BV will rise anytime soon.
What an awful investment strategy. making agnc sound reasonable with the reality of rates and the market is pure folly. while you lose more and more, the good stocks are growing and paying.
Sentiment: Strong Sell
Bozo, You say "he good stocks are growing and paying".
what are these good stocks ? How come your don't troll the "good stock" MB? You don't have a extra dollar to your name for any stock. You could not post without free wifi. Just another loud mouth loser.
What an awful investment strategy. making agnc sound reasonable with the reality of rates and the market is pure folly. while you lose more and more, the good stocks are growing and paying.
Sentiment: Strong Sell
Sentiment: Strong Sell
I have collected far more in dividends over the years from Agnc than I have lost on paper in the recent sell off. In addition all the shares i have sold over the years have been at a profit. You sound like a momentum player: Buy high sell low. I do the reverse.
Sentiment: Strong Buy
I would only add that at these prices you should reinvest your dividends.
Sentiment: Strong Buy
Sure give kain more of your money. he's lost 40% this year, and losses for past 2 years, so sure that sounds smart. Why invest in the rest of the market that is thriving. no let's keep doing the same things and expecting a different result. Definition of insanity personified.= stupid.
Sentiment: Strong Sell

Integration of the Baltic States into the EU and Institutions of Fiscal Convergence
This paper evaluates the functioning, suitability, and effectiveness of the Maastricht convergence criteria regarding fiscal policy and the Stability and Growth Pact for the Baltic States. We argue that the Maastricht fiscal targets from the Baltic perspective should be considered as long-term goals as opposed to short-run objectives of fiscal policy. Using the European Commission's approach as well as impulse response and variance decomposition techniques, we assess the fiscal discipline and cyclical sensitivity of each state's budget to changes in output gap. Empirical evidence indicates that Estonia and Latvia have been more successful in maintaining fiscal discipline than Lithuania during 1996-2000. We also observe that the Stability and Growth Pact signed in July 1997 would offer enough room for automatic fiscal stabilizers in Estonia and Latvia, but not necessarily in Lithuania. Policy implications of the findings for future perspectives are also discussed.

To be honest, I don't like claiming the 1973 title or the one where we lost to Texas in the bowl game. The one from the 1940s is pretty lame as well. I guess it balances out 1966 and 1977.
DISCLAIMER: I hereby reserve the right to discuss any game on the Alabama schedule I wish, at any time during the season, as I am not a part of the Crimson Tide football program. I am simply a fan who has no impact outside of the money I provide the athletic department via ticket and memorabilia purchases and the energy I can provide when I attend the games. ©2009-2016, crimsonaudio
Here's what bothers me about people saying Alabama "Claims" 14 National Championships. We were AWARDED those, we're not claiming them. We're not walking through a parking lot saying "That's my car, and that's my car, and that's my car." No, we actually have keys to those cars. They're ours.
We were awarded the 1973 UPI National Championship. Were we supposed to have the foresight to say "Sorry guys, one day butthurt Notre Dame fans will claim that this title isn't legitimate, so thanks for the award, but I think we'll just let you keep it."
Sorry not gonna happen. Same with the others. These aren't simply claims, they were actually handed out by legitimate sources. I will say this. This wouldn't be an issue in anyone's mind if we didn't have 1941 floating around on our banners. That one year is the source of frustration for most opposing fans and opens the door to put all of our titles under a microscope.
It's amusing to see us slammed in that article for 1941 but the Irish get a pass on 1966.
I'll always look back as I walk away
This memory will last for eternity
And all of our tears will be lost in the rain
Til I find my way back to your arms again
Only a few people in the world have the ability to remember everything. I'm one of them. Pick any day of my life, and I can tell you what I saw or heard.
The best example of "hands off" parenting was Darth Vader.
I dislike obnoxious fans, wherever I find them. Every fan base has them. But those fans do not award national championships.
I count every single one of them and can't wait to see #15 on the helmet in one month.

Invasive grey squirrels gnaw on fragile Gary Oak ecosystems and damage homes -- and they are on the rise in Nanaimo, according to a professor at Vancouver Island University.
Grey squirrels were introduced from the U.S. to south Vancouver Island in 1966 and have spread from Chemanius as far as the Comox Valley in the last four years. A report on grey squirrel sightings at Buttertubs Marsh, released by VIU Monday, shows the grey squirrel population is on the rise in the marshland park-a trend also seen in other parts of the city according to Elizabeth Gillis, professor of the resource management officer program at VIU. While no squirrels were spotted in 2009, 18 were found in 2010 and 16 this year. Gillis believes the number could be higher for 2012 based on her own data.
"Certainly they have gone from not being there at all, to being there," she said. "I'd feel confident in saying that numbers have increased . . . and what is being seen (at Buttertubs Marsh) is indicative of what's seen in the rest of Nanaimo."
Gillis started a "report a squirrel" website in 2009 to track sightings of grey squirrels in the Harbour City. People were seeing the squirrels in isolated pockets around Bowen Park and Departure Bay. In the last three years, however, the population has "increased substantially" and are now "fairly common."
"Probably the biggest (issue) with the population is the negative impact on the Gary Oak ecosystem," Gillis said. "They eat acorns and dig up bulbs and when you deal with an endangered it is a concern."
