Re: Do the Type of Creditors Affect your Score?[ Edited ]
09-16-2012 07:46 PM - edited 09-16-2012 07:49 PM
From my readings, all would seem to indicate that FICO does consider the type of creditor involved with various accounts.
Store cards, for example, appear to be assessed a bit differently than major bank cards, with recommendations in credit mix to have at least one major bank card.
Consumer credit loans also appear to indicate lack of creditor ability to secure a loan with a major bank at more favorable terms. The same appears to be the case with secured vs unsecured revolving accounts, as secured accounts are not really the grant of a line of a discretionary credit limit based on proven history, but rather the revolving use of one's own deposit.
The answer lies within the hidden folds of the FICO algorithm, but all I have read indicates that creditor types have their own different indications of risk repayment and credit worthiness, and are thus scored differently.

Intel inventory glut looms large over electronics supply chain
By - Source: Tom's Hardware | 0 comment
Excess stockpiles of PC microprocessors and core logic chipsets caused surplus semiconductor inventories in the global electronics supply chain to rise more than expected in the second quarter, according to research firm iSuppli. However, iSuppli is not raising any alarm bells at this time because the inventory rise in 2004 was a widespread phenomenon, while the current run-up in stockpiles mainly is limited to Intel, noted the firm.

Next time you need to move furniture around a room, try one of these techniques. They could save you an aching back and scratched flooring.
Glue bunion pads on the feet of tables and chairs so they can be moved without scratching the finish on the floor.
For heavy furniture, slip a piece of plush carpet, pile-side-down under the furniture legs. You'll protect the floor, and the furniture will slide easier.
If you're without bunion pads or extra carpet, try slipping heavy socks onto the legs, or place each leg into a shoe made from the bottom half of a milk carton.

The Omega Stone
First posted on 24 December 2009. Last updated on 24 December 2009.
Like many fans of Omni Adventures' Riddle of the Sphinx, I have been looking forward to playing the sequel, The Omega Stone (also known as Riddle of the Sphinx II: The Omega Stone). The husband and wife team of Jeffrey S. and Karen E. Tobler have obviously lavished a great deal of their time and creative energy into the series. While Riddle of the Sphinx is undoubtedly a sizable game with many scenes of ancient Egypt, The Omega Stone is much more ambitious, with settings as diverse as the Devil's Triangle, Stonehenge, Easter Island, and even the Mayan pyramids. It is an enormous game that will take many hours of play to explore fully. As with the previous game, many of the puzzles in this sequel are based on actual ancient symbols and rites, such as alchemy and the Mayan number system. I really appreciate a game that manages to be educational as well as entertaining, and this game succeeds in that endeavor. While I have a few nitpicks, overall I have enjoyed this game very much and highly recommend it to anyone who likes Myst style adventures or ancient civilizations.
The story picks up immediately after Riddle of the Sphinx. Your character is asked by Sir Gil Blythe Geoffreys to learn more about a mysterious artifact called The Omega Stone, which is somehow connected to Chichen Itza, Stonehenge, Easter Island, the Giza Plateau, and the Devil's Triangle—indeed, all of these ancient civilizations are found to be linked. As the player solves puzzles and begins drawing connections, a story unravels to involve aliens and a deadly meteoroid that threatens to destroy the earth. Of course, the player is not alone seeking to solve the mystery and retrieve the priceless artifacts. Part of the fun is learning about all the drama from Sir Gil's past expedition and encountering a cast of rather eccentric characters. I note that while the Toblers have certainly researched and in some cases travelled to the locations which they have chosen to include, there is a great deal of popular mythology and mysticism at work in this game. I cannot really give more information about the story without ruining the game, but suffice it to say that fans of world history documentary will feel at home here.
Like Myst, there are very few characters the player will interact with directly, though the interactions tend to be significant. The characters are portrayed by real life actors, and thankfully their acting skills are adequate. Occasionally an actor will try to effect an faux accent that can be somewhat grating, particularly when the actor cannot seem to maintain it consistently. The player's encounter with the other characters will occur mainly by reading diaries, notes, listening to recordings, and other means. Fortunately, there is also a friendly driver who helps to breakup some of the lifeless feeling that often exits in games of this type.
The production values are good, though I must admit the graphics seems quite dated, even by the standards at the time of the game's original release back in 2003. The main problem is the movement interface, which involves lots of vertigo inducing panning and rotating. The screen resolution is also rather low (640x480 pixels only), which can occasionally make finding exits or important objects difficult. It makes some of the text blurry and hard to read as well, which is a real problem given the abundance of onscreen reading required. Personally, I prefer a system that automatically highlights or outlines exits and hotspots, but I acknowledge that other gamers may enjoy hunting for them with the mouse. The inventory system is quite tedious. The player can only view a few objects at the time and must scroll left or right to get to the others. This becomes a major hassle later in the game, when the player may have up to dozens of objects to manipulate. By contrast, the save game system is excellent, capturing a screenshot of the area and allowing for many saved games. I am able to use this system to test out different theories very rapidly, rather than having to trek long distances each time. This latter point brings me to my main criticism of the game. While many of the areas are delightful to see and explore, I find navigating around the huge cavern beneath Chichen Itza to be really frustrating. It is dark and boring, and I am frequently lost in it. I really wish that the developers implement some type of zoom function to get to the key areas instantly, since wandering the caverns is anything but fun. Another area is the hedge maze, which again I find to be frustrating rather than fun to play. I know that some gamers enjoy these sort of puzzles, but at the very least I like to have an option to be able to skip instantly to the key areas after having solved the maze once. The music from the game's soundtrack is good but probably not as varied and plentiful as other games of this kind.
Among the game's touted features is the ability to save a screenshot which can be viewed in-game as a thumbnail for quick reference. Unfortunately, only a small portion of the screen can be captured, so this feature turns out to be rather useless.
Thankfully, the game can be entirely installed on the hard drive so that no disc swapping is necessary during gameplay. For me, this fact alone more than atones for the other inconveniences created by this game.
The puzzles are mostly high quality logic and symbol puzzles. For the few instances that I have been unable to figure out what to do next initially, they usually involve some important object I have previously overlooked. The worst of these involves giving the bus driver a strange object that he somehow knows meant to drive to a mansion. I am still not sure how the player is supposed to figure this out logically without a more obvious clue, such as an address or map on the object. Likewise, it is not obvious that the trunk of a truck in Chichen Itza can be opened—a fact that if missed, can create an impasse. Still, these are relatively minor issues given the cleverness of the rest of the puzzles. I particularly like the alchemy puzzles, which combine ciphering and mathematics in an intriguing and fulfilling way.
The game's biggest strengths are its clever puzzles, wonderful scenes, and colorful atmosphere. At times I feel I am part of some world history documentary about the mysteries of ancient civilizations. I also appreciate the egghead humor sprinkled throughout the game, such as a can of coffee with a funny message on the back. The only real downsides are the dated graphics and occasionally frustrating interface, but these are not enough to prevent avid adventure gamers from playing through to the end. All in all, though, I have enjoyed The Omega Stone and can recommend it to all fans of Riddle of the Sphinx and any gamer who likes first-person adventures such as Myst. It is not necessary to play Riddle of the Sphinx first, though doing so may give players a greater appreciation for this sequel.

sweet - I agree that the real car is a bit ho-hum, but this..., this looks awesome.
Thanks for the feedback! I'm a bit retained regarding the looks, as I haven't seen it in person - won't jump to conclusions.
Happened the same with the new X5, didn't like it from the photos, but in person, the car is just wow.
Looks very nice! The new bat mobile perhaps?
Also, just a general i8 note... Notice that it is giving birth to a Porsche 991 at the rear...
I am not impressed with new i8, but your touches make it pretty appealing!
Whaaat, i8 has all sorts of design delights every petrolhead wished to see on a road going car, especially us, the the ones with a keen eye for design.
Excellent Vision, I'd Drive that hot beauty. She looks FAST.
Amazing! 5/5 add to fav
great Vision.
That is awesome work!

The following editorial appeared recently on the Bloomberg View.
A mere 48 months after the law was introduced, only 42 months after it was signed, with just two weeks until one of its main provisions takes effect, Republicans Wednesday finally offered their alternative to the Affordable Care Act. Which would be cause for genuine (if belated) congratulations, except for one thing: It's not really an alternative.
The Republican bill would give individuals tax deductions to buy health insurance, expand tax-free health savings accounts and limit insurance premiums for people with pre-existing conditions. What it wouldn't do is expand coverage to the same number of uninsured Americans - about 25 million, according to the latest estimates - as Obamacare.
That last point may seem like one among many, but it's not. The most important achievement of the Affordable Care Act is that the law attains something like universal health care in the United States, closing an embarrassing and indefensible gap between it and every other developed country.
That means any plan billed as an alternative has to meet one definitional threshold, and only one: covering a similar number of Americans as Obamacare. To go a step further and be a better alternative, a proposal should cover a similar number of Americans at a lower cost or with fewer unwanted consequences. The documents Republicans released Wednesday are conspicuously silent on how many additional Americans would be covered.
Republicans now face at least three choices. They can continue to argue that ensuring universal health care is not a proper role for government, and try to persuade voters to agree with them. Alternatively, Republicans can come up with another way for the government to provide universal health care. Or they can concede that Obamacare is the best way to do so, and move on to other debates.
What's not helpful is to try to fool Americans with semantic games. Republicans like to talk about the importance of making hard choices. The hardest choice of all may be making their position more explicit: that universal health care is not a worthy goal for government. Wednesday's proposal shows they have yet to find the courage of their convictions.

"Perfect Location, Perfect Home, Perfect Beach=Perfect Vacation!"
We looked at so many vacation rentals that we got dizzy! We had never rented a home before and really did not know how to do it. In our search for a vacation home to rent we received an email back from Dr. Joe the owner explaining everything, including that on his listing was a video of the house(which we had missed) and that it takes 2 minutes to book the home. It took 2 minutes! Prior to our arrival Dr. Joe sent us information on restaurants, activities and a letter about some history of Palm Beach, so on arriving we already had our restaurants and activities basically picked out. So all we had to worry about was having a great vacation which we did! The private gated beach was fantastic! It is a 5 minute walk at the end of the street but do not forget the key to the gate as we did one morning. There was no one on the beach but my husband and children! The house had everything for the beach like towels, beach chairs, toys, rafts, cooler, umbrella and flip flops! This house is also about 5 houses from the Lake Trail which is about a 4-6 mile paved trail along Lake Worth (Intracostal waterway). We used the 3 bikes at the house and rented 2 extra bikes at the bike shop in Palm Beach for a reasonable price. The kitchen was very nice and had an indoor grill! The bedrooms were very comfortable. We have kids (17, 14, 12) and they all had a great time either on the beach, or on their bikes or the recreation center which is like 100 feet from the house and has all kinds of programs for the children. It was a great and relaxing vacation. The nice thing about the house was that there were not a bunch of little knick-knacks for our kids to break. We plan on coming next year and highly recommend this home to anyone.

"Beautifully Maintained Home The best vacation home!!!"
This home was the absolute perfect place for our family of four to spend the recent holiday. We are already planning to return next year. The property is beautiful and the layout is wonderful for families, with open living spaces and a great kitchen. It also has an old fashion theater popcorn maker, that makes great popcorn.
The bedrooms are all fantastic and the photos do not do the place justice. Two bedrooms upstairs had French doors that opened up to private decks, we had our coffee and breakfast every morning on the decks!! We never really realized there were decks because we never realized there was a video of the home and decks.
Perhaps the best part of the house is the location in town where you can walk to everything I mean everything restaurants, museums, tennis courts and the private gated beach at the end of the street (5 minute walk). The neighborhood is extremely quiet, yet it's only a short walk to the shops and activity. The beach near the house is arguably the best surfing beach in south Florida, with clean, chest-high waves every day of our stay. We also used the bikes from the house to cruise the path along the intercoastal and wander the local streets.
The owner Dr. Joe was incredibly friendly and helpful, and maintains the home perfectly. The booking process was fantastic it took us 5 minutes.We're a fairly demanding bunch, but I really can't think of anything wrong with the place.
I would recommend this home to anyone, especially those with children, for a great beach vacation.

Thank you so much for your nice review. For some reason everyone misses the video of the home and private beach. Some websites do not have the video, so if anyone would like to see it just email me and I will send them the video. It is difficult to explain to people how you can walk to everything because of where the home is located,so thank you for you for explaining it. See you next year and God Bless Dr Joe

"Highly recommended vacation rental!"
Incredible vacation home. We never left the island of Palm Beach during our entire week. The beach is only 3 blocks away. Casa Della Rosa is so comfortable and well appointed, a few days, we never even made it to the beach...just relaxed on the upstairs balcony...sipping Mojito's. With 3 teenage children, everyone always wants to watch something different on TV...plenty of Tv's to go around, one in every room. While my wife and I loved the sun shinning into our roomin the mornings, my children opted to close the blinds and sleep in late. Dr. Joe was able to provide us with an excellent concierge, when we arrived..an envelope was waiting for us on the table...complete with out weekly itinerary. Tickets to the Kravis Center for my wife and myself, dinner reservations at local restaurants, which, by the way, the food and service at the restaurants that he recommended...was outstanding! Our children wanted to attend a concert while we were there, he was able to obtain excellent seats, according to my teenagers, and provided them with transportation to and from the concert. Our teenagers, as most do, complain about everything! Not one complaint, about anything, during our entire vacation. In fact, they are still talking about Casa Della Rosa, asking if we are going back this year.

Thank you so much for your kind review. Our private gated beach is hard to describe online until you experience it.I always try to make my guests vacation as stress free as I can by having a starter kit of coffee,cream,soda and water there waiting for them so they can relax after traveling and not have to worry about going right out to get them. I do the same with the beach we supply everything beach chairs,beach towels,cooler,umbrella,beach rafts and toys. It is the best vacation home location anywhere, you can walk to everything restaurants, sightseeing, nightclubs,tennis,golf and shopping. Thank you again and see you and the family soon. dr Joe

"Great find!"
Family from Norway visiting relatives in West Palm Beach November 2012:
So happy to find this house! It has a great location in a very nice neighbourhood. Easy to walk (bicycle) to everything. We felt at "home" right away. The house is very spacious so we did not feel like we were living "on top" of each other. The house is also very well equipped with a very nice kitchen. The private beach is beautiful and the bicycles were very convenient and used all the time. Dr. Joe the owner is very easy to work with. We would love to come back soon.

"Great Palm Beach family getaway"
Our son is working in the Palm Beach area and could not get away. Since he could not go on a vacation with us, we decided to take the vacation to him. My wife, other son, daughter in law, and myself headed to Palm Beach expecting to enjoy some relaxation time together. What a great time we had, and what a lovely place to stay while we were there. Dr Joe was great to deal with and even had a surprise bottle of wine waiting in the unit on our arrival. We immediately felt at home in this cozy house. The layout is great and furnished very well, and the house was immediately inviting. One great benefit was Dr Joe working with us prior to our arrival to orient us and give us leads on places to go and things to do (including the best bet on restaurants). The house is very well located with a two block walk east to the beach, and only about a half block west to the river where a tree lined pathway leading north and south exists. When it came time to leave our main regret was not being able to meet Dr Joe due to both our schedules. An issue we hope to rectify next year, as we intend to return.

Thank you so much for a great review. My regret was that i did not get to meet you also on your next visit we will meet. Everytime I spoke with you you ALWAYS had an upbeat HAPPY attitude more than any other guest I have ever had what a delight to email you or speak with you. I always try my best to have my guests well informed(restaurants, shopping, activities etc) prior to arriving so that they do not waste their precious time getting stressed out about where to go or where things are, where to find a special place like a dive shop or musuem etc. Vacations are a time to kick back , relax and enjoy and i am so happy that you and your family did just that. I look forward more than you know to meeting you and the family next time. Thanks again Dr Joe
"Terrific Palm Beach Getaway!"
When we checked in, we were welcomed by a bottle of wine and a starter kit of waters, sodas, coffee etc! The house was charming and was located in a convenient location - easy walk to Worth ave and other shops/restaurants as well as the beach. The beach was beautiful - private access, so it was not crowded either! We had a great stay...would love to stay here again!

"Beautiful Girl's Weekend Rental"
My nine girlfriend's and I absolutely loved the house- all ten of us fit perfectly and could even all eat at the dining room table. The house is just a few blocks from downtown and the grocery store so renting a car isnt a necessity. Can't wait to go back and stay again!

"Great house!"
Came down to Palm Beach for a Fitness competition in april 2012 with several other people. The house was just what we needed to stay rested and have a little fun during our visit. The kitchen was great with lots of space for entertainment. We felt very central to all of the spots we had to visit in Palm and West Palm. The house was very clean. The owner even offered all of us flip flops just in case we forgot.

"Family Rental for Wedding"
We enjoyed staying at the house for a family wedding. The house is large and we never felt on top of each other with the numerous bedrooms and bathrooms. The kitchen is modern and spacious.
Location was a plus, a short walk to the bike trail and the shopping areas. We used the two bikes everyday. We would recommend this property to anyone who wants to be close to town.

It was a pleasure having you as guests of "Casa Della Rosa", It is hard to explain to potential guests just how close everything is located to the home. The fact that you really do not need a car because everything is within walking distance-restaurants, activities, tennis, golf, bike path, recreation center, shopping, Worth Ave., nightclubs, and more shopping. Thank you so much for your kind words. Dr Joe

"Amazing Experience"
We rented this house to celebrate my mother's 70th birthday. It was absolutely perfect. 10 adults slept very comfortably. The house had unquestionably everything you could possibly need. It was spacious, clean, well laid out and central to everything. The access to the beach was simple and the neighborhood walk was just gorgeous. The owner was a delight to deal with- helpful, easy to reach and full of local area advice. We will visit Casa Della Rosa again, this house is a gem!

"Our Fantastic Stay at Casa Della Rosa...Crew of M/Y Elisa (150"
We recently had a last minute stay at the beautiful "Casa Della Rosa". The Yacht that we all work full time on and live on, had a maintenance period which involved it being lifted out of the water, and we could not live aboard for a ten day period. From the first call that I had with Dr Jo, we were made to feel beyond welcome. This included a visit by us to the property to view it first. This was organised with the mimimum fuss with very short notice. We also very much thank Dr Jo for the very kind gesture of the wine left in the house for us. We enjoyed this very much. Thank you for everything Dr Jo. We will highly recommend you to other Yacht Crew in the future,and hope that can re visit in the future.

"Fantastic Home in an Ideal Location Near the Beach and Restauran"
This home is beautiful and luxurious. It is a short walk to the beach one way and then half a block to the intracoastal. We had peaceful strolls along the shore. Later we were able to eat at nearby restaurants on Worth avenue and elsewhere in Palm Beach. The owner made us feel comfortable and safe. We had maid service if we wanted and bikes to ride around town. He provided us with a list of nearby attractions for the children. At night we were able to sit on the second floor balcony and sip our wine, relaxing while the children slept. We recommend a wonderful stay in a fantastic home.

"Girls annual Get Together"
My girlfriends and I are already planning our trip to return to Casa Della Rosa next year for our annual get together!! We had a blast! The home is perfect for any type of group. I am going to take my parents to the "Casa" this summer. The excellent retaurants are within walking distance. No need for a car or cab! They even have dancing. We would start our day by strolling to the Breakers via the bike trail for coffee and bagels, then hit the beach for a day in the sunshine. The weather was beautiful and we cant wait to go back. I thank Dr. Joe for making this year the best "girls get together" yet! Thanks for the chilled wine waiting for us upon our arrival!

"Fun, comfortable, beautiful home and so close to everything-the"
Our stay at Casa Bella was the Best! Everything was perfect-from the location to all of the sweet extras Dr. Joe puts into his lovely rental. The decor is island chic with a lot of romantic touches throughout! Including the fireplace! The Intracoastal Waterway and the atlantic Ocean are a short stroll away. There is the most beautiful bike trail that runs along the waterway for walking, running or taking a bike ride-all the way to the end of the Island. Only a couple of miles and well worth the ride! It was like being at our home , yet on vacation! We can't wait to return. We are for spring break!! Thank you Dr. Joe!!!

HOUSTON (AP) — Medical officials and others are criticizing a Houston city councilman's disparaging remarks about flu vaccinations and his comments that people "don't die from the flu."
The Houston Chronicle reports (http://bit.ly/UCMQpC) that during a city council vote earlier this week to consider accepting $3.1 million in federal funding for childhood immunizations, councilman Jack Christie criticized flu vaccines and suggested the media is embellishing "the extreme fear of encouraging flu vaccinations."
The newspaper reports that on Friday, Christie backed down somewhat from his comments, indicating that what he meant to say was that "people should not die from the flu."
Christie says he has never taken a flu shot.
Dr. Joshua Septimus, associate professor of internal medicine at Methodist Hospital in the Texas Medical Center in Houston, says Christie's comments are irresponsible.

Skip to comments.Why Does My Bible Read That Way?
Posted on 01/23/2012 3:27:12 PM PST by count-your-change
click here to read article
From the appendix...
...very generally admitted to be the oldest version that has come down to us, of the New Testament in any language.
I do not have a first edition, my copy is by Carters, a second edition from 1879.
It is plain, but in a way kind of floral.
Here is the Lords prayer:
Our Father who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name:
Thy kingdom come: Thy will be done; as in heaven, so on earth:
Give us our needful bread, this day:
And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors:
And bring us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil: For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever and ever: Amen.
I was not remotely suggesting discussing John 1:1 on this thread, but for you to research that which you purport to be some sort of authority on.
Are you a JW perchance?
I've not purported to be any sort of authority but I am familiar with the sources I use. That why I use them.
If you wish to make a point feel free to do so. But do try to be specific if you will, please.
As for myself I never discuss anything, not age, location, nothing about myself personally. Never have and won't start now.
Any serious discussion related to the New World Translation amongst anyone knowledgeable is a discussion discrediting it whole cloth.
The New World Translation is heretical, therefore anyone giving it any credibility is also heretical.
Comparing it to other translations and defending it like you have here is ridiculous and exposes you as someone not to be taken seriously at the least, or someone with an agenda (ie JW)
Is my point specific enough?
I will give your opinions all the attention they deserve.
When in doubt, I head to the original languages.
Always a good idea and it's been easier to do so by the publication of facsimiles of the major manuscripts and translations.
My translation from the Greek:
"No one has ever seen God at any time; the only begotten God who is in the Father's bosom has made Him known."
I deliberately left out commas that commonly separate the phrase "who is in the Father's bosom" because they are not in the manuscript. The Greek word theos (God) is clearly used after "begotten" - any translation that uses "Son" is an example of a translater who functions as an interpreter.
The end result is something that is theologically, historically and contextually correct - but not textually correct. My preference is to have a direct translation, with difficulties explained in the margins. For example, if a translator changed it to "Son" because of a fear of modalism (God as one person acting out three roles) or polytheism (more than one God), those concerns should be noted in the footnotes, with cross-references to other verses that help explain historic Christianity, which teaches that there is one God revealed in three persons.
Yes, I too would prefer explanations, interpretations and such be in notes.
And thanks for your comments.
While I disagree with the Jehovah's Witness point of view, what you say about the "The differences can be quite minor, word order and choice of words that carry much the same the thought or of a rather substantial nature that will affect our understanding of the Scriptures as a whole." is quite true.
There are 3 versions that I prefer, King James Version, New International Version, and the Amplified King James Version for studying.
and, cyc, good thread — a chance to discuss and debate without pointing fingers.
It really is possible to have a thread without the invective and eye gouging so typical and I thank all for that....well almost all but I'll call it square.
I myself, pick according to what usage I have in mind. And often according to the print font used.
single of its kind, only used of only sons or daughters (viewed in relation to their parents) used of Christ, denotes the only begotten son of God
Theon (accusative)
Theos (nominative)
a god or goddess, a general name of deities or divinities the Godhead, trinity God the Father, the first person in the trinity Christ, the second person of the trinity Holy Spirit, the third person in the trinity spoken of the only and true God refers to the things of God his counsels, interests, things due to him whatever can in any respect be likened unto God, or resemble him in any way God's representative or viceregent of magistrates and judges
Simply put. No one has seen God ever yet the only begotten God in the bosom of the Father declared Him.
It seems to me that the interpretation should be the only begotten God.
My favorite online Bible source.
You can bring up parallel translations of any one verse and then go to the Greek or Hebrew which is connected to a Strong's to find the meanings of the words.
It's very easy to use.
In the p66, John 1:18, the only begotten "theos" is written as a theta plus an s with a line over both. No upper or lower case.
So whether it should appear as "God" or "god" depends upon the view of the translator of the context and even his own bias.
single of its kind, only used of only sons or daughters (viewed in relation to their parents) used of Christ, denotes the only begotten son of God"
"Single of its kind" being the only, uniquely generated son
(mono + genes) fitting of Christ.
Thanks. I think I've used that site before and likewise found it quite useful. Here's another to add to your favorites list,
Online Greek Interlinear Biblewww.scripture4all.org/OnlineInterlinear/Greek_Index.htmCached - Similar
A very good translation of the bible is the net bible.
What is it you like about this particular translation?
Very cool, thanks for posting that link. I spent a good hour investigating that earliest of Biblical manuscripts, the Peshitta.

I like hacking emerald. I took out the ticket events and made it possible to get Mew, Deoxys, the other lati, And the legendary bird pokemon. I don't do storys because I'm not good at righting them.
So basically I make cheat roms. I once put a mew in the room you start in.
You could buy rare candys and masterballs for one pokedollar. The mew also talked

As much as we might wish that we were born with gorgeous eyebrows that are full and accentuate our eyes and face perfectly and never get unruly that is probably not the case. Therefore, we need a little assistance in making our waterproof eyebrows look good. A great tool in achieving that is a waterproof eyebrow pencil.
Take your fingertip, press lightly on the top of your eyebrow and run your fingertip from the thickest part to the thinnest part after you have drawn wispy strokes through your entire eyebrow This will blend in the eyebrow pencil lines and make your brows look more natural.

At the suggestion of Brad Rencher, senior vice president and general manager of the Digital Marketing Business Unit at Adobe Systems, the four-story building was designed to encourage employees to use stairs rather than the six elevators. Rencher is an avid cyclist and he wanted the architect and designer teams to create a design that focuses on the health and well being of his employees.

Risk Regime Change: Goodbye EUR, Hello JPY
As the world flipped its calendar from November to December - risk-assets decided to shift their funding currency and EURUSD lost its ramp-a-bility... (which also helps to explain the unusual 'strength' in EUR as carry-traders buy back their EUR-based funding and rotate to JPY)

Bye bye kyle bass?
it seems a few people are not aware of kyle bass's yen play
Yen futures been falling since Sept., down 0.70% right now. I'm sure KB is crushing it on this trade.
I highly doubt he is crushing anything as he was in long before September. I do actually think he will eventually be right. I was using the material from the actual post by Tyler which seemed to imply that the trend would change from December on to imply that if the post is correct, Bass could feel some pain.
From another website.
"According to the website ValueWalk, citing sources, his fund lost 29% of its value in April, and has really been getting clobbered since inception"
Alternately, FOREX is completely rigged by cooperating central bankers and nothing that happens there has any meaning at all.
Yeah, but the DOW is back in lockstep with the Euro. Like it was a year ago..
On the subject of "Risk Regime change", Golden Dawn offices in Greece were reportedly bombed Tuesday morning.
Photo of the Compound (pre-bombing, via Guardian)
So far, even Greek news sources aren't providing pictures, which is highly unusual.
Let me think of another country in the EU where bombs were common practise. Ah, I remember, Italy in 1969. Or, as the Greeks called it, "Red Sheepskin".
I think currencies are going to be the playtoy of 2013......and its going to get ugly and mean...
Obama talk. Dow +170. Sheeple like. Boner screwed.
It's USDJPY, not JPYUSD...
which turns the "regime change" thing on its head, doesn't it?
And it's actually the AUDUSD by proxy. Either way, the ramps in both xxxUSD crosses haven't finished...so I guess that turns that on its head, too.
The dollar is worthless. Best to recognize.
I wouldn't be so sure about that...
US Dollar hegemony will be with us for a long, long time.
Orly is there a point where the debt hits a number where you start to question it's sustainability? Or is the debt completely not relevant in your mind?
The dollar sure has hung in there a lot longer than I expected.
There is no limit to how low the USD can go, frankly, so all this talk about the demise of the dollar doesn't make a lot of sense in the history of things.
The history is that the USD, back in 1913, was by far the biggest kid on the block- and we still are- but imagine going to Spain and buying a house for what amounted to pocket change for most Americans. Imagine that our exports were virtually non-existent because our dollar was so strong that no one could afford to buy one of our thousand-dollar machines.
The Federal Reserve set about debasing the USD, such that it is now worth about seven cents of what it was back in the day. And we're still the biggest boy on the block and no one can touch that. We are the most productive, most resourceful and most competitive country on the planet by a mile. We are also the smartest because we can afford the bribe the Chinese, Indians and Vietnamese to come here and do our engineering for us. ;)
I think now, though, the Federal Reserve and Dr. Bernanke in particular are satisfied with our competitive dollar pricing in the global economy.
A brief history of the current crisis also reveals a very important aspect of the USD: the other global currencies, including the Euro and especially the Great British Pound Sterling would not exist today if the Federal Reserve of the United States did not debase our currency relative to theirs, take their money in FX swaps and allow them to use US dollars as global currency. The main problem with the banking crisis at its beginning was that no one had any dollars! Everyone was selling assets priceed in Euros and Pounds for US dollars and the entire system started to crater and crater fast.
So, in answer to your query, no, there is no downside limit to the value of the USD (within some reason, of course...) and conversely, there is no upside limit (again with the same caveat...) to debt we can take. So we devalue our currency another two cents. And we would still be the biggest boy on the block.
I do wish people (gold bugs...) would try to put this idea into some perspective. Dr. Bernanke is absolutely correct. If he wanted the Euro, the Pound and the yen to revert back to their current actual value against the USD, he could do it in fifteen minutes (as he said he could alos do with any inflation...) and that's only because he would have to pick up the phone and arrange a press conference.
"The US is raising interest rates!" End of story.
If he said he was raising interest rates the bond selloff that would ensue would make almost every bank/insurance company etc. bankrupt instantly, as they own massive amounts of treasuries. The US itself would not be able to fund it's debt as the interest payment would blow sky high. How do you reconcile that?
Interest rates have to stay at zero and probably go negative from here on out as we take on more debt. Raising rates is not an option. I don't understand why that is so hard for people to comprehend.
I didn't say that it would be wise for him to do it. What I meant to say was that if a weak USD were really a concern, it wouldn't take very long to correct that situation.
I think you are correlating higher interest rates with a stronger dollar. That certainly used to be the case. I hate to say this time is different but I think if they hiked rates that would exasperate the crisis and the dollar would actually sell off worse as it is becomes a reality that we can't pay our debts. It's just a theory though and we won't know until they decide to do it, if they decide to do it.
She also just stated the dollar could handle a further debasement of 30%. Since all assets are denominated in dollars I would like to see how the world would handle a price increase of that size.
correct. The Bernanke is painted into a corner and the gamble that he is making is that the world will tolerate negative interest rates for an extended period of time. He represents the Fed (a private bank), who believe that there are still considerable real/physical assets in the U.S. to control/purchase. It is a real gamble, but with everybody devaluing their currency and still many such assets left to aquire, this could go on for a while.
If you knew what the Fed's intentions were and what they planned to do with all their assets, then you would know the future (barring WIII of course).
I buy Orly. I know what you mean. Now, what would happen if we start seeing defaults in the yankee market? Say, USD denominated bonds from European issuers? The Fed would of course provide more USD funding, via FX swaps, right? Do you think this is sustainable? Because I really think we are going to see defaults, given the recession in the Euro zone.
Second point, I was wrong. Until this morning, I was convinced that we would see gold up when Treasuries begin to be repudiated. But in fact, it is the reverse. Treasuries will begin to be repudiated when gold starts going up, because it will form inflation expectations. Hence, all this manipulation by G7 central banks giving below market lease rates to the cartel banks to short it and cause volatility, so that nobody touches gold for the purpose of storing value. Fine. So, however, with recession, a fall in production will come and with it, an increase in the price of food and other necessary items, which are well hidden from the public with the fucked up CPIs. But you can only create the illusion for so long...And then?
So, yes, I think we still have a long road to walk but...do you really think it can remain like this forever?
It all comes down to interest rates. Bernanke said in 2009 he would start raising in late 2010. In 2012 he is saying Zirp to 2015. As these chicken head cnbc and bloomberg assholes debate the speed of the recovery. In 2013 he will eliminate guidance so he won't be held to a date in time to raise rates. So the only question left is when does everyone wake up and realize he cannot ever raise them?
My answer is never. Because people only give a shit about their interest rate if they have savings. By 2015 almost everyone will be piss broke except the richy rich, and they have so much fuckin money they don't need interest.
So then what?
OMG Orly......
Fuck. I know you mean well but I guess you mean well like economic Profs do.
Lets put this in perspective. Oil trades inversely the dollar. If oil rises it crushes GDP. If the dollar falls GDP gets crushed. If there is no more GDP then America is not the most productive.
And oil will rise, whether Bernanke uses his Keynesian economic policy to "debase the currency to increase exports" or not. But if he continues on this path you will be staring $200/b oil in the face sooner rather than later. GDP goes negative at $185/b.
As that happens the other currencies will be sold more and more at a premium, furthering the dollars demise. Gold will especially benefit.
I want to explain this to you so while you day trade you don't lose all your FX spending cash.
Bernanke can pick up the phone, arrange a press conference and announce the US raising rates as easily as I can get a gun, point it to my head and shoot. Sure, it is easy...Will I do it?
Algos have now taken FX as it's bitch.
Everything's a fucking scam...every fucking thing.
Fuck you Bernanke and your fucking global ponzi.
The risk to the regime will be servere if they come knocking here.
I am a black belt in fucking baseball bats. You can nearly smell the desperation of these two bit scumbags.
How is this going to work out for E.Z. exports again? Trade wars to heat up? The shit gets real when the supply lines break?
Same as it ever was.
No risk to this regime, so long as the plebes keep their heads in the sand. Or elsewhere.
Here's an example of what matters the most to them.
Republican or Democrat, the majority of the wandering mass are the same: Members of "Idiot Nation".
took you a month...
on the other hand, I was an imbecile too; saw this and bought eur against everything bar jpy, fearing too high volatility. At 8% increase, guess I should've stomach the vol. that didn't even exist...

Saral Wax Free Transfer Paper
By Johnnyattitude
from Nevada
I bought this transfer paper to transfer drawings onto steel. I make iron art and cut the drawings with a cutting torch. I wanted the white saral to do a one step transfer. Previously, I have used carbon paper to trace over the drawings onto the steel and then had to trace over it on the steel with a white bic whiteout pen. This transfer paper is not doing what I had hoped. The line is faint and in some places didn't transfer at all. Had to go back to my old method.
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend
Merchant response: We're sorry that this transfer paper didn't work for you. Please look for an email from one of our Customer Care Agents who will be following up to assist you.

I use the red Saral to transfer images onto green-ware and bisque ceramic work. It provides a sharp. clean line and burns out in the firing. Elegantly solved a lot of problems. The price is very fair for the quality of the product.

The best transfer paper ever!!!
By Bold Pressed Ink
from St George, UT
I have been using red Saral transfer paper for 5+ years now and absolutely love it. I am a relief printmaker, and literally use this transfer paper on a daily basis in my studio. I love the variety of colors they offer, but prefer the red for my work. It cleans off easier, and the color is very bright and transfers easily. Honestly, I don't know how I'd function without this product!

Clark County residents now may be ready to adopt a home rule charter. The recent response from citizens to complex and volatile issues — Don Benton's questionable appointment and debate over the Columbia River Crossing — indicate a growing desire for more control over county government and a more direct and independent voice in local issues.
With home rule, we could, for example, form a government that is nonpartisan, and more representative of the views and philosophies of all citizens than the current restriction to Republican and Democrat party lines.
If three commissioners are not enough to insure democracy, we could increase the size of the elected body. The elected commissions of the current six home rule counties in Washington state range in size from three (Clallam) to nine (King).
We could specify which county offices are elected or appointed.
We would have our own powers of initiative and referendum.
Most importantly, Clark County is much more than a bedroom community of Portland, and too unique to be governed by the one-size-fits-all county charter provisions in the Washington state Constitution. Let's establish ourselves as empowered, independent citizens who will fight to protect our way of life by first ruling ourselves. It's time for home rule.

Pakistani expatriates may be given voting rights
Dubai: A Pakistani minister said efforts are under way to resolve outstanding issues like delays in passport renewal, voting rights for overseas Pakistanis, facilities for community events and schooling capacity.
Pakistan's Caretaker Minister for Overseas Pakistanis, Feroze Jamal Shah Kakakheil, told a community gathering in Dubai on Tuesday that he and the ministry have pushed for voting rights of Pakistanis abroad, however, the final decision is yet to be taken.
He said there were about 1.2 million Pakistanis in the UAE.
Visiting the Pakistan Association Dubai (PAD), Kakakheil said the Pakistan's Supreme Court and election commission are considering granting the voting right to Pakistanis living abroad.
Dr Riaz Langh, Community Welfare Consular was also present.
"God willing, you [expat Pakistanis] will be given this facility. We [the ministry)]are ready to facilitate this. We're placing ads, raising awareness and campaigning. We've written to Pakistani embassies, presented the case for it to the Supreme Court," he added.
"But everyone has their own mandate. The court has given some directions, and as they mature, you'll be given this facility."
It was also revealed during the meeting that the long-delayed multipurpose community hall at PAD is back on track.
Pakistan Consul General in Dubai, Tariq Soomro, said: "Good news: we've solved this issue. A big donor and another donor have lent support. Only a procedural formality is left. It's just a matter of a short time now."
When asked about the delays in renewals of Pakistani passports, Soomro said: "The new passports are still coming from Pakistan though there have been delays. The delay is in Pakistan, owing to issues of booklets and lamination."
He said existing passports were being extended "according to applicants' needs and I have not received any references of Pakistanis facing problems obtaining visas of other countries on these [extended] passports".
Another issue raised at Tuesday's informal meet-and-greet was the schooling of Pakistanis in the UAE. One woman said seats were limited, with many Pakistani children attending other schools instead. Another man said there should be more schooling options in smaller UAE settlements like Fujairah and Dibba. There was also concern about Pakistani school leavers left with few Pakistani universities to choose from in the UAE.
Both KakaKheil and Soomro said they would liaise with officials and stakeholders here and back home to address these issues.
"The private universities are coming, they showed interest in an education fair at PAD recently. There's no permission for bachelor's level evening courses in schools, but affiliations with Pakistani universities and other possibilities are being explored," Soomro said.
He was responding to a question about hosting evening classes in schools to accommodate demand.

Smart Solar Legislation Helps Minnesota Lead In The Midwest
Solar Power World
A map highlighting the Solar Energy Industries Association's top solar states by capacity seems to forget the middle of the country. But it's true: The Midwest trails other parts of the country largely because the region didn't keep moving forward with solar policy. Instead, policy became stagnant or even regressive. There is a bright spot, however: Minnesota is lighting the path for solar in the Midwest.
Google's 'green' energy plan: Build, learn, expand
Christian Science Monitor
A ravenous consumer of electricity, Google knows it must find a way to become more efficient and cleaner. Hundreds of thousands of its servers are partially dependent on fossil-fueled power. So just as it gained experience constructing and designing large-scale data centers over the years, the global leader in Internet technologies is now applying the same lessons to expand its use of renewable energy.
