Fundamentals of Investments was written to: 1. Focus on students as investment managers, giving them information they can act on instead of concentrating on theories and research without the proper context. 2. Offer strong, consistent pedagogy, including a balanced, unified treatment of the main types of financial investments as mirrored in the investment world. 3. Organize topics in a way that makes them easy to apply--whether to a portfolio simulation or to real life--and support these topics with hands-on activities. The approach of this text reflects two central ideas. First, there is a consistent focus on the student as an individual investor or investments manager. Second, a consistent, unified treatment of the four basic types of financial instruments--stocks, bonds, options, and futures--focusing on their characteristics and features, their risks and returns, and the markets in which they trade.
"synopsis" may belong to another edition of this title.
The authors goal for the students is to understand financial instruments and their markets, and to be intelligent consumers of financial information. This class is not training ground for security analysts or portfolio managers. These are more specialized and more intensive subjects. Instead, this book surveys the modern world of investments, familiarizing students with the many different types of instruments, their basic features, and how they are bought and sold.
Attention-Grabbing Openers. Each chapter begins with a 'Did you know'?' type scenario that presents an interesting fact or misconception about investing to draw the student into the chapter.
Check This! This feature presents review questions at the end of each major section so students can check their understanding of the material before going forward.
Investment Updates. These boxed readings, taken from the business press, illustrate content covered in the chapters as it is applied in the real world.
Numbered Examples. Examples are called out and numbered for ease in identifying them. Each example explains step-by-step how to solve the problem or resolve the issue, and the reasoning behind the steps.
Get Real! This section at the end of each chapter explains how this material can be used in real life. This feature supports the practical focus of this text.
Self-Test Questions. In the end-of-chapter material, there are 1-3 self-test questions and worked out solutions for students to review before moving on to the problems.
Test Your IQ (Investment Quotient). These multiple-choice questions (10-20 per chapter) test the students' understanding of key concepts in the chapter. The answers are at the end of the text in an appendix.
Questions and Problems. An average of 20-30 questions and problems are included in each chapter. The questions are categorized as Basic and Challenge.
Stock-Trak Fast Track. A majority of the chapters have a special section at the end that introduces students to an aspect of Stock-Trak, a trading simulation, and includes projects related to this product.
Self Study Software - this self-study CD-ROM is packaged free with every new book purchased from Irwin/McGraw-Hill. An average of 75 multiple-choice and true/false questions per chapter can be found. The questions are patterned after the test bank questions, but are not the actual test bank questions. The CD also contains a financial calculator, FinCalc. This is actually two calculators in one. The first is a stock options calculator based on the famous Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model, and the second is a U.S. Treasury market. Intended to supplement chapters 10 and 15 of Corrado/Jordan, students can easily perform numerical calculations discussed in these chapters. In addition, each calculator has graphing capabilities to help the student better understand the relationships between variables used in these calculations.
Bradford D. Jordan is Professor of Finance and Gatton Research Fellow in the Carol Martin Gatton College of Business and Economics at the University of Kentucky. He has a long-standing interest in both applied and theoretical issues in corporate finance, and has extensive experience teaching all levels of corporate finance and financial management policy. Professor Jordan has published numerous articles on issues such as cost of capital, capital structure, and the behavior of security prices.

Kia Picanto MY18 Launch Review
It has to be said that Kia has produced an exceptionally stylish, feature packed, surprising vehicle. Maintaining the value for money and high quality that has made the current-generation Picanto so popular.
It has to be said that Kia has produced an exceptionally stylish, feature packed, surprising vehicle. Maintaining the value for money and high quality that has made the current-generation Picanto so popular.
These early Q5 arrivals will be available for customer test drives in selected dealerships around the country from the end of April, ahead of the official launch of the new Q5 in June
The Audi S5 3.0l V6 TFSI Coupe is a beautiful design that somehow manages to balance the competing aspects of performance, ride handling and occupant comfort to provide an excellent grand touring coupe.
Many manufacturers claim to have started the AWD SUV revolution but only one, Subaru, actually did. Way back in the early 70's they introduced the Leone wagon and changed the motoring landscape.
Launched in January 2016 the BMW X4 xDrive35d crosses over prestige and sport AWD SUV. BMW likes to be different and labels the X4 the first ever Sports Activity Coupé (SAC). Got to love the marketing people.
The Q2 is not a sports SUV, nor is it an SUV for off road use. It is as mentioned an urban warrior that is aimed right at the younger, technologically advanced, upwardly mobile buyers that want more than a sedan or coupe.
The S3 truly needs to driven to experience the engaging, fun, balanced experience it delivers. Surprisingly it also represents reasonably good value and while the options can be expensive, you don't need to visit that page to procure the experience.
If you want the short version of these drive impressions. The Audi S3 is simply brilliant. It does have some minor faults but these are far outweighed by the balance between power, ride and dynamic handling that provides more FUN than is expected.
Audi's brilliant new SQ7 comes with revised technology, new technology and a host of new and improved features. Here are the quick facts.
The SQ7, while based on the brilliant Q7 brings to the market some awesome new technology, interior and exterior changes and a design that looks smaller than it is. It may be the ultimate family sports SUV

The end of the silicon chip
The silicon chip, which has supplied several decades' worth of remarkable increases in computing power and speed, looks unlikely to be capable of sustaining this pace for more than another decade – in fact, in a plenary talk at the conference, Suman Datta of Pennsylvania State University, USA, gives the conventional silicon chip no longer than four years left to run.
As silicon computer circuitry gets ever smaller in the quest to pack more components into smaller areas on a chip, eventually the miniaturized electronic devices are undermined by fundamental physical limits. They start to become leaky, making them incapable of holding onto digital information. So if the steady increases in computing capability that we have come to take for granted are to continue, some new technology will have to take over from silicon.
Replacing the chip with carbon nanotubes
At the conference, researchers at Leeds University in the UK will report an important step towards one prospective replacement. Carbon nanotubes, discovered in 1991, are tubes of pure carbon just a few nanometres wide – about the width of a typical protein molecule, and tens of thousands of times thinner than a human hair. Because they conduct electricity, they have been proposed as ready-made molecular-scale wires for making electronic circuitry.
Some nanotubes behave as semiconductors, like silicon; others carry electric currents like metal wires. Already, fundamental elements of computer circuits such as transistors have been made from individual carbon nanotubes.
But the problem is arranging nanotubes into circuit patterns. One particular difficulty is that they are typically made as mixtures of metallic and semiconducting tubes, whereas just one type or the other is needed for a specific component. These electrical properties depend on the precise arrangement of carbon atoms in the nanotube, but that's hard to determine for single tubes.
Bryan Hickey and his coworkers at Leeds have now developed a technique that will reveal an individual nanotube's structure (and thus its electrical properties), and then allow it to be placed in a position on a surface with an accuracy of about 100 nanometres, a fraction of the width of a human blood cell. The nanotubes are grown on a perforated ceramic grid, and tubes lying across the holes are examined in an electron microscope to deduce their atomic structures. Then the researchers use two needle-fine tips like tweezers to pick up a single tube under the microscope and put back down on another surface.
Chris Allen, one of the Leeds teams, says, "With this technique we can make carbon nanotube devices of a complexity that is not achievable by most other means."
Boosting computer power with superconductors
Two further talks at the meeting will describe an even more dramatic way to overcome the limitations of silicon computers. Hans Mooij of the Delft University of Technology in the Netherlands and Raymond Simmons of the National Institute of Standards and Technology in Boulder, Colorado, USA, will claim that superconductors – materials that conduct electricity with zero electrical resistance – can harness the power of quantum physics to boost computer power tremendously.
So-called quantum computers have become one of the hottest items in physics over the past decade. They attempt to improve on the power of silicon not by making components smaller but by exploiting the counterintuitive principles of quantum mechanics, the theory generally used to understand how objects behave at the scale of atoms and subatomic particles.
Objects governed by quantum theory can be in several different states at once, like a light switch being simultaneously 'on' and 'off'. These 'superposition' states don't correspond to anything familiar from our everyday world, but countless experiments have proved that they can exist so long as the quantum objects are not disturbed by, for example, making a measurement on them.
In a quantum computer, the equivalent of 'bits' that hold binary information as 1's and 0's in today's computers will be quantum bits or qubits, which can also exist as superpositions of 1's and 0's. This massively increases the amount of information that can be encoded in a quantum computer's memory. The catch is that superpositions are extremely delicate and hard to maintain, especially in memories containing large numbers of qubits that interact with one another.
Various candidates for making qubits are being explored, such as magnetically trapped atoms or nanometre-scale blobs of semiconductors. But it has long been recognized that loops of superconducting material can also be placed in quantum superposition states, and thus act as qubits. Here the quantum states may correspond to an electric current circulating round the ring in one direction or the other. (In superconductors this circulation can continue more or less indefinitely without petering out, because there is no electrical resistance.)
At the conference, Simmonds will describe the first demonstration of information being transmitted between two such superconducting qubits. This shows that elements of this kind can act as a quantum-computing memory and a "bus" for qubits to communicate with one another, an essential requirement of any working computer.
The two superconducting loops are made from thin wires of aluminium laid down on a slice of sapphire and cooled to less than 0.1 degrees of absolute zero to make them superconducting. They sit just a millimetre apart, but are connected by a meandering waveguide 7 mm long – a kind of light channel, like an optical fibre, but for microwaves. The superposition state of one qubit can be transferred into a microwave electrical vibration of the waveguide, like plucking a guitar string. This microwave "photon" of energy recording the first qubit's state can then be controllably transferred to the other qubit – crucially, without destroying these delicate quantum states.
Mooij was part of a group that first demonstrated in 2000 that such superconducting loops can be placed in quantum superposition states. He will describe the progress that he and others have made since then, both in making practical quantum devices and in using them to explore fundamental aspects of quantum mechanics, such as whether and how the 'quantum weirdness' of superpositions can survive when the objects concerned get much larger than atoms.
Mooij says that one of the biggest challenges in making quantum computers this way is to progress from two to three qubits that communicate with each other. He says that the particular approach he and his colleagues have been developing has the advantage that, if this can be achieved, scaling up further won't be too difficult.
Mooij says, "With our qubit, once we have three set up we can move on to twenty or fifty."

Staphylococcus aureus is a feared pathogen (MRSA, multi-resistant S. aureus) due to frequent resistances against many antibiotics, especially in hospital infections. Researchers at the Paul-Ehrlich-Institut have identified immunological processes that prevent a successful immune response directed against the pathogenic agent. The delivery of bacterial proteins with RNA adjuvant or messenger RNA (mRNA) into immune cells allows the re-direction of the immune response towards an active defense against S. aureus. This could be of significant importance for the development of an effective vaccine. PLOS Pathogens has published these research results online on 25 May 2017.

I've seen people criticizing how the Thor Ragnarok trailer is too much laughs and giggles and how Thor and Hulk showdown should be bloody and destructive, not Thor quipping and funny jokes…
Except, did you like forget the existence of all the other MCU movies?
This isn't the comics characters, criticizing the scene without actually considering the context is just pointless
Thor and Hulk were friends the last time they saw each other, not enemies, so this reaction is completely in line with story and character progression.
Thor is stuck on the other side of the universe alone and defeated, his planet and home in peril, and suddenly he comes across his friend? Of course he's gonna be so fucking excited and be like "YESSSSS!" because then he's not alone, he's got a friend, seeing Hulk is basically seeing hope that he can get out of this and all would be okay.
Friendly reminder that Sam and Dean are basically professional murderers.
Remember the scene from 6x15, "The French Mistake" when they enter the parallel universe? The first question Sam asks is "Should we be killing anyone?"
Of course it's meant to be funny. And it is (like literally everything in that episode.)
But although they can be the cutest of cinnamon rolls, we should absolutely never forget that they went through years of training before they were even legal.
John gave Sam a .45 when he was nine. NINE. It's another one of this lines we tend to laugh at, because it is so totally absurd, but still – if you think about it, it's sick.
Just for fun I googled the training Navy SEALs go through. It's more than a year. They spend weeks honing different skills. Sam and Dean started training, well, pretty much after they were born. But let's say they actually started with ten.
They were sparring, crafting their own bullets, learning about the monsters out there. Dean never went away and in the prologue he's 26, giving him 16 years of training. Sam would have ten, considering he's been in Stanford for two years. (Some sources say it was four years, but in The Pilot Deans says two so I'll go with that.)
Now, unlike Navy SEALs they actually had real cases during their training. Plus, the younger we are, the easier we pick stuff up. They basically trained not only their brains and bodies, the act of hunting became an instinct. Example: Even after two years in Stanford Sam still hears Dean coming in, is completely prepared for a fight. It's part of who they are.
And as I said: They were not just training. They are learning by doing – confronted with a foreign thread, a monster they never encountered before, they need to use what they have and defeat it. It's not like it's enough that they know how to handle a gun. They can use knifes, machetes, are good at-hand-to hand combat. They can use pretty much everything that just stands around in a normal house as a weapon. You and me would think 'decoration'. Sam and Dean think 'possible weapon if necessary'.
They learned how to treat their own injuries – and not just scratches. Bullet wounds, deep cuts, dislocated shoulders – no problem. And what's completely stunning: They could even dig a bullet out of themselves. Stitch themselves up. Do you know how much that would hurt? What kind of will power is necessary to pull that off? We don't think about that. Sam is quiet and Dean jokes his way through situations like that.
That's called coping mechanism. Seriously, Dean and Sam are well-trained assassins, instincts honed to keep up with supernatural beings, raised to kill.
And the next time you watch an episode, just keep in mind that behind Sam's gentleness and Dean's laughter is a man that could snap your neck before you even realize they're there.
Just saying.
So I've been thinking about doing a big Ereri fanfic rec list and decided that today is the day to do it! So here ya go. :) This also took a long time to make so hopefully whoever sees it likes it. Tell me if you do!
Note: I'll continue adding onto this as time goes on and reblog it sometimes when I add more.

Summary: He's been sitting in his car for the past fifteen minutes, trying to muster up the courage to walk inside the restaurant.

Eren groans, slumping forward until his head rests against the wheel.

Summary: Levi is hunched over the steering wheel, knuckles white and palms sweaty. He's been trying to recite aloud what he wants to say, but his voice keeps cracking and he's just emitted a strange wheeze, so he's decided to give up on that for now.
Concentrate on driving, just concentrate on driving

Note: Baseball player!Eren & Fan!Levi AU
Author's Tumblr: mentioned up above
Summary: When he was younger Levi spent one unforgettable summer in Berlin - one month and a mistake later he goes and doesn't look back.
Fast forward ten years and Levi is now a successful fashion photographer and Berlin is just one thing in a line of many he has managed to run from - except the past has a funny habit of never staying where it should and Eren Jaeger isn't somebody content with just being a memory.

Summary: In which Levi seems determined to spoil Eren rotten, whether he likes it or not.
(For the record, Eren hadn't expected his confession to lead to this sort of thing at all).
Word Count: 6,297
Summary: Eren's head had fallen forward until it was brushing Levi's shoulder in front of him, and still Levi didn't move, transfixed by the way Eren's every word was coated in pure, unadulterated lust.
"You know, I like you best when you're covered in their blood, you look like you were fucking made for it. Made for killing them and made for me."
… Levi/Eren. Explicit SMUT.
Rated M
Word Count: 12,810
Note: Hottest smut oneshot for Ereri that I've read. I highly recommend reading it. It's really hot and I love how both Eren's and Levi's characters are portrayed. Eren is really nutty and has this hero worship/obsession thing going on for Levi, and Levi keeps trying to resist him, but eventually gives in.
Note 2: I changed the link for it to Ao3. Here's the link to it on fanfiction.net:https://www.fanfiction.net/s/10533926/1/Revolt
Summary: Eren's not a vindictive person. Really, he's not. In fact, he considers himself a big supporter of doing the right thing, fighting the good fight (literally, if need be); basically, he's a big proponent of justice.
Sitting here with Jean's credit card clutched in his hand, Eren's sure this is just the beginning of a long and prosperous road full of justice.

Author's Tumblr: mentioned earlier in the list
Summary: Eren lives by the ocean in a peaceful, untroubled world with his classmates. He studies, dreams of going out to sea on the boats to see what lies beyond the horizon, spends his afternoons by the water's edge with his friends, and sneaks out at night more often than he should.
His greatest ambition is to join the crew of the Wings of Freedom, but after making a disastrous first impression on Captain Levi, joining his company will be easier said than done. Despite the insults and the bruising, Eren is determined and he vows to do whatever it takes to impress the captain before the ship is out of drydock.

Note: The plot twist in the story really surprised me. It's a great read.
Author's Tumblr: @mongoose-bite
Summary: Levi is a rare thing; a man of honour in a city eternally selling its soul. They gave him a gun and a badge, and he walks the cruel and indifferent streets of Southport doing what he can for the forgotten ideal of justice. Someone else in Southport has an interest in justice as well, and he leaves a bloody trail of corpses in his wake as he tears through the city's underworld.
Levi's duty is to hunt him down, whether he is an avenging angel, a monster, or something slightly more complicated than either.

Note: Really awesome. I read almost the entire thing in one sitting.
Author's Tumblr: mentioned earlier in the list
Summary: Working as a desk clerk for Sina Enterprises isn't the most grandiose job out there, but it sure beats every other option Eren had jotted down since graduation. Troubled past behind him, Eren strives to make a name for himself by not fucking up the only good thing he has going for him. But when a certain foul-mouthed and dapper executive waltzes through the lobby doors, Eren is more than willing to set aside his "no fraternizing with the higher-ups" rule. However, the engagement ring on Levi's finger proves to be a deal breaker. It was supposed to be a one night stand, one night to get each other out of their systems, but the two of them bit off more than they could chew.

Author's Tumblr: @celestialparadigm
Summary: Single father Levi is left scrambling to find an after school daycare for his daughter, Mikasa, when his regular babysitter announces that her husband's job is being relocated. The only problem - they're all far more expensive than he can afford.
The solution to his dilemma comes in the form of a college student, Eren, who will do it for a fraction of the cost - as long as Levi will save him from a steady diet of ramen and pop-tarts by feeding him dinner every night before he leaves.

Summary: Levi is the Captain of The Captain's Killer, the most dreaded pirate ship in all the Caribbean, which hunts its bounty with ruthless efficiency. For years Captain Levi has dodged the Navy's most decorated Commander, Erwin, and his attempts at sinking Levi's ship and coercing him into sailing under the Navy's banner. It seems that Levi will continue sailing the seas as he pleases, answering to no one but the mood of the winds, until a stowaway with a few secrets of his own ends up on his ship and throws everything in disarray.

One summer when visiting his Uncle Erwin out in the countryside, Eren befriends a mysterious masked man who lives in the forest. They promise to meet every summer from then on.
In other words, a story told through summers, year by year, of Eren being a (cute) brat, Levi dealing with said brat, and all the fluff, awkwardness, and strange feelings that come with growing up, despite the limitations placed on their interactions.
Inspired by Hotarubi no Mori e.

Note: Seriously, this story is so interesting with all the supernatural elements. When I found this fic I binge read about 100,000 words until I was up to date on it.

Summary: Levi is a scout, and protects his village day and night from feral yokai, demon like creatures who feast on human flesh. When the chieftan of his village is killed by the beasts, Levi's father takes over, putting him next in line to lead his people. All Levi wants to do is watch over Mitras with his blade, fighting along side his teacher, who he has been in love with all his life. When he discovers that Erwin is getting married, he heads off into the woods alone to drink and slay demons, trying to forget. He never expects to summon from the darkness a yokai of his own.
After a few minutes everything went quiet, and then his yokai was before him, magnificent, covered in splashes of red. My yokai? He wore a maniacal grin , the joy of taking a life that deserved to be taken. Levi knew that joy, had worn that expression so much he could feel the ghost of it on his face. Then, the yokai spoke.
"You were so damn slow, I thought I'd never meet you." Levi felt his mouth gape open. Yokai couldn't speak. They were like animals, beasts without souls.
"Who are you? What are you?" That smile grew predatory, eyes slitting deviously.
"I'm Eren, and I'm yours."

Note: Yokai are supernatural monsters from Japanese folklore. I absolutely adore this story. The author is also really awesome and she updates her stories quite regularly.

Summary: Eren is one of the few Alphas who go into rut without the presence of an Omega in heat nearby, and after suppressing it for nearly two years, the drugs are no longer working. As a last resort he heads to an Omega refuge, hoping to find a suitable, but temporary, mate. When he finds one lost in a fatal 'red heat', he'll do whatever it takes to ease his suffering.
When the Levi's fist sounded out against the wood, the Alpha did not open it right away. Leaned into it, pressing his forehead against the smooth surface. Felt the pull of the Omega on the other side, just as he had that first day in the shelter. A whole new kind of gravity that tugged him not down to the earth but straight towards Levi. The laws of the universe shifting to bring them closer together, and Eren could not resist their inevitability.
Rated M
Word Count: 113,448 (27 chapters)
Status: In-progress
Note: Sooooo beautiful. Levi is an omega but he's far from weak, which is often what they are portrayed as. The relationship between Levi and Eren is gorgeous and this is by far my favorite ABO verse fic that I've ever read.
Author's Tumblr: mentioned up above
Summary: There are certain moments in his life where Levi becomes aware of his limitations as a man. Painfully aware, if we're being blunt. Here now, with Eren straddling his lap, all starry eyed and pouty lipped, voice wrecked and begging for it, well…
AU. Levi was a neighbor and Eren's babysitter. Years later they meet at a bar. Things ensue.

Summary: "I asked you if you needed to hit me again. Because. In court, you said Sir, you said that you were going to."

Summary: Levi has a customer.
He doesn't tend to look at his customers, but he knows them by voice, and this one's got some sort of shitty European accent and never buys cigarettes or lottery.
Which is pretty strange, considering that Levi runs the cigarette and lotto counter.
Word Count: 9,019 (2 chapters)

Rated M
Word Count: 4,464 (oneshot)
Summary: Just another cliche AU in which Eren works as a barista in his mother's café, specializing in latte art. And then there's Levi, who's not exactly your typical patron, because, well, he's blunt and rude (which Eren supposes isn't that much different from regular customers) but mostly he just confuses Eren's poor little homosexual heart.
Rated T for Levi being a perv

Author's Tumblr: @pocketsizedtitan
Summary: He wouldn't say that they're friends, really. They're not quite just acquaintances either; the more he thinks about it, Eren's not sure how to describe their relationship. They sort of… tolerate each other, in different ways.
But yeah, the more he thinks about it (and he does think about it quite often), Eren thinks that he'd like for them to be friends.
(AU where Eren tries to figure out what you do when friendly feelings turn into something more.)

Summary: After watching his father brutally murder his mother, barely escaping with his life, Eren Jaeger moved from one foster house to another, never really finding a place to call home. Now that he is grown, he lives with Mikasa and Armin in a dilapidated old house, but all is not well. The loss of his mother at his father's hands, along with the brutal treatment he received for his sexuality, as well as repeated failures in all aspects of his life have left him hollow and broken. Though he had tried before to end his life and failed, with a fistful of pills and the knowledge that his friends are gone for the weekend, Eren was sure that this time he would succeed. At the last moment he hesitated. His only regrets would be leaving Mikasa and Armin behind, and never confessing his feelings to the owner of the bookstore he works at. After realizing he had nothing to lose, he decided to tell Levi how he feels before ridding the world of himself for good. Even if Levi rejects him, it doesn't matter. What's he gonna do?
Kill himself?

Summary: Captain Levi Rivaille is second in command of the Survey Corps, a gang that is at constant war with the Military Police who, despite saying they act on behalf of the Crown and the people, are corrupt and violent with anyone who doesn't fall in line. Even at twenty years old Levi is seen as one of the most powerful soldiers, with detached ruthlessness in his way of life. Which means that no one was expecting him to adopt a young eight year old boy named Eren, who is orphaned when the Survey Corps' battle with the Military Police level the Shiganshina District.

Note: This is probably my favorite Ereri fic. Seriously, my feels for this piece are endless. This alternate universe is absolutely fascinating, it takes place in the Attack on Titan world but without the titans and a different plot line and different dynamics. For most of the chapters it's Eruri, but it eventually transitions to Ereri. Eren and Levi's changing relationship over the years is beautifully executed and I can't stress enough how great I think this fic is. <3

Summary: Two years after the murder, Levi is finally ready to let it go. The house at the end of Ashbury Lane is quaint and peaceful ― a gift from an old time friend meant to grant him a new beginning. However, when the shadows begin to move at the dead of night, taking on the form of a treasure thought lost, Levi begins to fear for both his sanity and his life. Suddenly, the road to recovery becomes a game of kill or be killed.

Summary: A/N: Essentially, the one in which Levi ditches his car and ends up half-frozen on Eren's doorstep, and then proceeds to fall harder for Eren in four days than he's ever fallen for anyone in his entire life.
Basically, this story shall contain roaring fires, hot chocolate, a ton of farm stuff, a whole roster of adorable animals ('cause Eren's totally spending his reading week watching over Hanji's farm in the middle of frozen Alberta, whereas Levi is an author who lives in Vancouver), a rather nasty power outage, cuddling for warmth, a bunch of cuteness with Eren and Levi bonding over nerdy shit; and, essentially, Levi and Eren being trapped together for days, with both of them realizing very quickly just how compatible they are, and with both of them horribly aware of the fact that they're from different worlds and live entire provinces apart.

Levi's known this kid for maybe four hours. There's no reason for him to feel this protective.The wind's still howling outside, though, and Levi still can't feel his toes.Eren may well have saved his life, by opening his door.Maybe Levi's allowed to feel a bit protective in return.

Summary: "Hey…hey. Are you okay?" Well, considering that he's hanging off the side of a bridge in a torrential rainstorm with every intention to kill himself tonight, he could be doing a lot better.
Eren comes along just in time to talk Levi down from doing something drastic and offers to take him in for the night. It's supposed to be temporary, or so Levi thinks, but Eren ends up being 50 different shades of nice and offers him a home under his roof.

Dipper looked warily down at the fidgeting, squeaky-voiced teenager from his current position floating in the middle of the living room, surrounded by a large collection of pillowcases, paper sacks, and plastic jack-o-melon pails all overflowing with a diverse selection of candy. The handful of Yumber Jacks he'd been about to eat paused halfway to his mouth.
"…Yee-eeeees…" he answered cautiously, reluctantly shunting the candy in his hand back to his storage vault in the Mindscape, followed by the rest of the holiday confectionary. He straightened up out of his lounging position in the air, giving Toby a look that he hoped accurately conveyed how important this had better be to be worth interrupting his candy-indulging time.
(He always got good deals around Halloween and Summerween, particularly from kids who had earned the ire of the various Summerween Trickster-like creatures that had started popping up off and on since the Transcendence, wherever terrible off-brand candy was a thing. The hefty price in real candy that he was able to demand for getting rid of them always kept him well-stocked for most of the year.)
Toby fidgeted uncomfortably under Alcor's gaze, scratching the back of his neck and shuffling his feet awkwardly.

Today in our filmmaking workshop in Dadaab we watched E.T., which none of the guys had ever seen before. Yesterday we discussed basic screenplay plot development, so I thought we'd use this movie as a way to practice identifying things like the inciting incident, protagonists, plot points, and the climax.
The first and third photos were taken at the moment E.T. and Elliot are flying on the bicycle. It was so fun to experience their reactions throughout, but I was the only one that laughed at the line, "It was nothing like that, penis-breath!" Must have been lost in translation.
Margot Robbie: My note towards Captain Boomerang when he walks in the script is, 'I think he's an idiot.'
Jai Courtney: Well, you're wrong. Did she correct herself later on?
Margot Robbie: She has moments where she's like, 'he's funny.' And then it goes back to her thinking he's an idiot.
Jai Courtney: I definitely pick up the kind of class clown slack at times. Harley has this great line where she says, 'Your village in Australia is missing its idiot. You should call home.' Which is a great line, and rings true.
Me to a co-worker about why Wonder Woman should be loved more.
This isn't a slight against Clark or Bruce being bad people because they're not, but Diana is the glue that keeps the Justice League together and that needs to be said more.

Freak Out!
You never know what you're going to find when you go through a move. I happened across this bottle that had gotten buried behind some shopping bags in the pantry. Thirsty from carrying boxes, we chilled it down and popped it.
The beer is, I think, a one-off, from one of my favorite California breweries, the Lagunitas Brewing Company in Petaluma. Known for their quirky senses of humor and risk-taking brews, Lagunitas manages to have a lot of fun and still make great beer.
Freak Out! Ale is no exception. To commemorate the 40th anniversary of Frank Zappa's seminal album—it was released last year with an image of the album's cover on the label. The beer inside the psychedelic bottle plays to Lagunitas' strengths. Gorgeously hopped, the beer doesn't go down the road of typical bitter West Coast ales. Rather, it's amber in color with the rounded sweetness of a sweeter style. I loved that beer.
This month, word is that they're releasing another Zappa tribute, this one for the album Absolutely Free. It should be hitting stores next week. And, without having tasted it, I'll go out on a limb to say: make sure you get some. Look for it at Whole Foods and other fine beer stores.
As I understand it, the plan is to release a Zappa beer for the 40th anniversary of every album he made. Since he made something like 80 albums, we have a lot to look forward to.

A team from Qatar University (QU) has won first place in Qatar National Research Fund's (QNRF) 9th Annual Undergraduate Research Experience Programme (UREP) competition.
The top 25% of projects completed in 2016 under the UREP – a key capacity-building programme of QNRF, which is part of Qatar Foundation Research and Development were selected to participate in the competition, from which 13 projects were shortlisted.
The four top-scoring projects, all from QU and covering a range of areas including biomedicine and health, engineering, and information and communication technology (ICT), were chosen to produce oral presentations, where each team gave a public presentation in front of a panel of judges.
The remaining nine teams presented their work in the form of posters, displayed and judged on the day of the competition.
Launched in 2006, UREP is QNRF's longest-running programme. To date, more than 3,200 students have benefited from taking part in UREP, which gives them hands-on research experience under the guidance of university faculty and research mentors.
Noor al-Merekhi, programmes director, QNRF, expressed her pride in the teams, saying: "The winning projects are truly exceptional - they push the boundaries on all levels, and demonstrate the research talent emerging among Qatar's youth."
First place in the competition was awarded to an ICT-themed project from Qatar University. The project, entitled 'Scalable Real-time Monitoring System for Medical and Brain Computer Interface Applications', aimed to develop a scalable health system for effective, remote, and real-time patient monitoring.
Second place went to a project titled 'Role of Adiponectin on Diabetic Retinopathy'. The team found that adiponectin, a protein involved in the regulation of glucose and fats, can significantly counteract the effects of hyperglycemia.
A project titled 'Involvement of Qatari Undergraduates towards Conversion of CO2 into Solar Fuels' won third place, while the fourth team of finalists investigated how to help Qatar find suitable water resources in a project titled 'Enhancing the Quality of Produced-water by Activated Carbon and Phytoremediation for Irrigation'.

You're the One (Spanish: Una historia de entonces) is a 2000 Spanish film directed by Jose Luis Garci. It was Spain's submission to the 73rd Academy Awards for the Academy Award for Best Foreign Language Film, but was not accepted as a nominee.[1][2]

Julia, an only child of an affluent, bank owning family living in Madrid, escapes from her family to get over her grief that her boyfriend has been imprisoned. Julia is a well-educated woman, having studied in Switzerland and England, who wants to become a writer. Julia drives to a little village in Asturias called "Corralbos del Sella" and there she stays in a mansion "llendelabarca" of an old childhood friend "Pilara" she had spent many a happy summer with. Also living there is Pilara's mother in law Tia Gala, and her grandson Juanito.
Julia's relationship with caretakers, teacher and priest makes Julia, a woman of the Spanish capital, perhaps for the first time to not feel so alone.

In 2009, Ben Bernanke, chairman of the Federal Reserve System, was chosen by Time Magazine as Man of the Year. I enjoyed reading the article about Bernanke.
It contains interesting information about Bernanke including his childhood in Bennettsville and about monetary policy and the role of the Fed.
About the same time I called a high school friend to respond to an invitation to a party that he was having for high school friends. He called it a Medicare Party in honor of those of us who survived to draw Medicare. My high school friend is a distant relative. In high school we were proud of fact that he was distantly related to Andrew Jackson and I was distantly related to J. Marion Sims. That is very southern, I guess.
In college my friend and I drifted apart. He attended Davidson and I attended Wofford. About 1972, 10 years after we finished high school, my friend visited home. My new wife and I carried my friend to the Wagon Wheel for supper. On the way back to town we stopped by the Lancaster Airport. We flew around Lancaster for a while. It was one of those serendipitous moments in life: a good friend, my wife, and a pleasant southern town on a pleasant night.
In the 10 years after high school my friend accomplished quite a bit. He earned degrees from Davidson and Princeton. He also served in Vietnam where he was seriously injured. I kidded him by saying that he had lost his Southern accent. I will never forget his reply, "Where I work I am considered stupid if I speak with a Southern accent."
Time Magazine said that Ben Bernanke has managed to keep the current economic crisis from becoming another great depression. It said that Bernanke was the right man, in the right place, at the right time. Bernanke is a student of the Great Depression. He understands the mistakes made in the 1930s and has been determined to try to avoid repeating them.
Another South Carolinian of whom I am proud is a Davidson graduate, who has served in the U.S. Congress since 1982. John Spratt also has degrees from Oxford and Yale but still speaks with a Southern accent. He is a veteran. He currently is a member of the House Committee on Armed Services and chair of the House Committee on Budget. He has a vast knowledge of military, monetary and agricultural issues.
For the benefit of the people in the 5th Congressional District of South Carolina, I hope that the voters of the 5th District have the good judgment to allow him to continue. Spratt is a moderate and is able to deal with liberals and conservatives, which is important. I think that it is interesting to compare Mark Sanford, the poster boy for the neoconservative, neocarpet bagger politics in South Carolina, to Ben Bernanke and John Spratt. Mark Sanford represents a political ideology that has sought to close USCL and dismantle government. John Spratt and Ben Bernanke seek to make government work better for everyone.
In trying to explain the difference between classical and Keynesian economics, I tell my students that if our class were meeting in 1920 instead of 2010,I would be teaching classical, laissez faire economics. And I try to explain the progression of economic thought in the last 90 years. However, I remind them that in 1920 they would not have been in school because their families would not have had enough money to send them. Government subsidies allow them to be in school.
It is interesting to me that business people who benefit from stimulus programs, veterans who receive Veterans Administration benefits, senior citizens who receive pensions and parents whose children receive subsidized educations, find it fashionable to trash government. They seem to have a propensity to vote for politicians who would dismantle government programs from which they benefit.
Our country's role as a world leader is being challenged in the 21st century. The country that will prevail will find a good blend between the public and private sectors. I think that the lesson of the 20th century was that we need good government to stabilize a market system that occasionally goes into a tailspin, especially when greed goes berserk. John Spratt is a seasoned veteran.
John Spratt has been a true friend to the people of the 5th Congressional District. John Spratt understands that the economic agenda of the neoconservatives can return us to the destabilizing environment of the early 20th century that can lead to truly serious market meltdown.

As, Mainstream completes fifty years, we reproduce N.C.'s 'Editor's Notebook' that appeared in this journal's Twentyfifth Annual Special on October 10, 1987 as it brings out the purpose believed the publication of this periodical.

Islamic Resurgence: A Politico-economic Phenomenon
3 January 2013, by Syed Shahabuddin
One hears a lot of Islamic fundamentalism these days and the tone and context make it clear that fundamentalism is being equated with orthodoxy and obscurantism. The established image is that of a Mullah with a gun. Indeed fundamentalism has become a derogatory term, just as two generations ago pan-Islamism had become a dirty word, an emotive term. In course of time, political terminologies change in sartorial fashion. However, the task to explain the happenings in the Muslim world has to (...)
Caste, Sex and Crime: Aryavart in the Dark Age?
3 January 2013, by A K Biswas
In a brief compass, the following article aims at an indepth focus on the history of female infanticides as we see in some of North Indian States. The materials used are drawn from the archival source of the colonial administration.
Perhaps many parts of India are unaware of the word, kuri mara, and its connotation. This means persons "who kill their female infants". In his several writings, Guru Gobind Singh (December 31, 1666-October 21, 1708) severely condemned the kuri maras.1 His (...)

Why We Salute Mainstream
in its Golden Jubilee
3 January 2013, by Medha Patkar
The Indian discourse on development has no doubt taken a new turn since the initiation of the globalisation-liberalisation paradigm and the free flow of the global capital as well as capitalist forces into our country. It is invariably realised that the inflow of not just the 'capital' but its interventionist influence has resulted in a tremendous change in the country's landscape as well as the land use. The opening up of the land has made all our natural resources accessible and available to (...)

How soon does time fly away? Mainstream is fifty years old. Yet it seems only yesterday when Nikhil Chakarvartty founded the magazine. He wanted to give the intelligentsia a mainstream where streams of different thoughts would pour in. His belief was that every idea, however conservative or parochial, was worth debating.
The contributor had every right to place his or her viewpoint freely and independently so that there was an interplay of ideas for a consensus to emerge. Even if there was (...)

Long ago, in the late sixties of the last century, the Planning Commission of India constituted a Committee on Land Reforms under the chairmanship of Dr Z.A.

That way he was quite a "non-Marxist" as he went against the interests of the class to which he belonged. He came from a family of landlords in Uttar Pradesh. Having worked under (...)
