text: The contemporary kitchen has come a long way from its traditional cousin. With the passage of time, the concept of a kitchen as a personal space is fast taking shape among the trendy youth. Yet the traditional context of the kitchen remains un-debated. Keeping this in mind, the challenge of the project was to design a modular high-end kitchen system by uniquely fusing the elements of old and new trends. Special attention was given to ergonomics and anthropometrics so as to customise the kitchen area for the average Indian. Research and study was conducted into traditional cooking styles and user preferences, which helped design an island kitchen with elements like a tandoor and a low smoke chulha complete with a smoke vent.

Ahoy! Krew.io is a team based shooter game in which you play as pirate canon on a boat. You either start alone on a small raft or with a team and a captain. As a captain you can control the boat, while as a simple crew member you're only allowed to move around and shoot. But that's not an issue because this game is about teaming up. Being stronger when you're with your krew and in a clear disadvantage when alone. When you got your krew together and you're convinced you're strong enough you can start fighting against other ships and try to sink them. But take care matey, you don't want to become shark bait. Once you've won against another you can collect their booty that is now floating on the water. The game allows you to buy upgrades for your ship too, you just have to sail to one of the few islands and sell the loot you got from raiding other ships.
Move around with W, A, S, D, aim with your mouse and left click to shoot at other ships. If you're the captain, which is represented by your canon wearing a little hat, you can also steer the ship by changing your position on the deck.

Middle School Teachers
Middle school teachers typically specialize in teaching a specific subject such as biology, mathematics or history. Middle school falls between elementary and high school. Middle school teachers provide a more in-depth education in subjects introduced in elementary school.
Some teachers participate in making decisions regarding textbooks, the budget, teaching methods and curriculum design. They typically teach rotating classes and thus spend less time with each student than elementary school teachers.
- Create lesson plans
- Prepare students for national and state tests and assessments
- Choose instructional materials and resources
- Motivate students to learn
- Grade homework
- Design tests
- Monitor student behavior
- Provide exposure to potential careers
- Provide assistance to individuals and groups
- Adapt lessons to different levels of learning ability within a group
Job Characteristics
Many middle school teachers have a diverse student population in their classes. Watching students gaining new skills and knowledge can be very rewarding. However, sometimes they have to deal with unruly students. Teachers may have to deal with stress due to the pressure of producing students that are capable of giving satisfactory performances on standardized tests in core subjects.
Some teachers work in modern school settings, yet some teachers work in older schools that are not in good shape and don't have all the modern amenities. When combining classroom teaching and work performed outside of the classroom some teachers work more than 40 hours a week. Most middle school teachers work a 10 month school year and have a two month summer vacation.
Teachers that are employed in private schools typically have smaller class sizes and are given more power in creating their curriculum and establishing performance standards.
Employment Middle School Teachers
The Bureau of Labor Statistics has forecasted a 11 percent job growth for middle school teachers from 2006 to 2016 which is about as fast as average for all occupations. The demand for teachers varies by regions of the country and the subject taught. There is a demand for teachers that are bilingual and for those that can teach English as a second language.
In 2006 the median annual earnings for kindergarten, elementary, middle and secondary teachers had a range from $43,580 to $48,690. In some schools teachers may receive extra pay by working with students in extracurricular activities or for coaching sports.
Education, Certification, and Licensing
Middle school teachers are typically required to have a bachelor's degree in education. The Teacher Education Accreditation Council and the National Council for Accreditation of Teacher Education provide accreditation for teacher education programs. Graduating from an accredited program is not required for becoming a teacher, however, it may make it easier to fulfill licensure requirements.
Most states offer alterative paths to licensure for people that have a college degree in other subjects. Private school teachers typically need a bachelor's degree but do not have to be licensed.
An education degree usually provides courses in topics such as psychology of learning, philosophy of education, teaching methods, and using computers and other learning technologies. In most programs students must partake in a student-teaching internship.
Every state requires public school teachers to be licensed. Most private schools do not require a license. In most states teachers must complete a minimum number of hours in continuing education in order to renew their license. Most states provide alternative licensure programs for teachers that have earned a bachelor's degree in the subject they will teach that have not taken the necessary education courses required for a regular license.
Major Employers
The top employers are public schools and private schools.
Schools for Middle School Teachers are listed in the Browse Schools Section.

Sometimes I Just Don't Understand
1 comment:
I finally learned that I will never understand other people. As that song goes through my head..."God is great, beer is good, people are crazy."

Anholt and Southern Harvest Announce New Acquisitions in Romania
Feb 11, 2016, 08:00 ET
WESTPORT, Conn., Feb. 11, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Anholt Services (USA), Inc.

It is a testament to our confidence in the ability of our management team on the ground to continue to identify, acquire, integrate, and improve new tracts, as well as our confidence in our large team of local employees who continue to rise to the challenge of creating a world class farming operation in Romania." Mr. Krediet added, "Furthermore, we view our entry into organic farming as part of an ongoing effort to pursue a sustainable business model in partnership with the local community."

So yesterday I hit the lakefront path during the snow fall that created some slippery footing for speed work. Up until yesterday I hadn't done any speed training whatsoever since the fall other then a progressive run here and there, so I felt a bit uneasy about what type of workout I was going to produce. I spent the morning thinking about how slow I have intentionally become this winter, and wondering if my plan to back off any serious training for several months was going to backfire on me.
With all the stress I caused myself yesterday morning, the repeats were a success. I clocked 6:20, 6:19, 6:17, and 6:20. For the most part I felt fairly strong and confident. The absence of speed in my life gave me the desire to continue on and realize how much I miss running fast. It feels good to wiz by other runners looking effortless and hearing my breath deep and strong carrying me through. My legs felt like the had some led in them for the first mile, and I kept having to look at my Garmin to figure out my pacing and remind myself to slow down.
When I returned in, I pulled out my yoga mat to get in a major stretching session to repay my muscles for all of the hard work that they just did. My dogs love when I do this, especially if I pull the mat out just after returning from a run.
Chase always tries to lick my sweat, which is gross because I know where his tongue has been licking otherwise. This is an almost daily battle for me and my pups when they attack me after a run, and sometimes I just skip the stretching and ab portion of my workout because I don't want to be licked to death.
Miles and Chase also like to use my yoga mat as their own wrestling mat. They bust out WWE style moves, and I'm convinced that they think this cushy pad is just for them to play on. Their playfulness and desire to show off is cute, and while it may be annoying at times secretly I think everything they do is absolutely adorable and no dog anywhere could top their cuteness.
Doug back in December went online to Runnersworld.com to make a comment about about the article "The Turning Point". The article was about the Foot Locker Championships in the year 2000 and showcased Dathan Ritzenhein, Alan Webb, and Ryan Hall and said that this was the greatest high school race ever. My husband has followed these runners from the time they were in high school because they were are elders, and as an amazing cross country and track runner himself he kept up to speed on his fellow runners. He found himself quite upset about Runners World claiming this was the greatest Foot Locker race ever, and commented online about how the previous year was better.
A few weeks later Runners World contacted us to let Doug know that his comments were going to be published in the March issue and they were going to send him a free T-shirt. So last night our March issue arrived and there his comments were. Of course he called everyone in his family to tell them that he is a "published writer", and was beaming with excitement. While he never did receive that free T-shirt, the ego boost that this provided him will keep him exuding for sometime.

The day had arrived. It was time to drop that big V8 in the chassis. I bolted on the alloy engine plates that GD had made for me and the engine mounts and it was time to "rock and roll "
If you fancy making your own plates there is plenty of information on LS1Tech and HERE or HERE
I also got GD to knock up a plate for the gearbox mount. I forgot to second coat it so I'll have to get round to that. This is another part you could make yourself quite easily.
I decided to take the accidental reverse solenoid out and make a plate to blank it off as this feature is not used and it also allowed me to centre the gearbox better.
With the engine and gearbox all trussed up like a chicken we maneuvered it into place.
To be honest all went well here and it slipped in without any complications at all.
Look at that just wish I could start it and here the beast running. Still good things come to those who wait.

Instructor: Joseph D. Alchermes, Chair, Department of Art History & Architectural Studies at Connecticut College
Classes: Thursdays: 10:00 am – 12:00 pm
November 2, 9, 16, 30 and December 7
Fee: $125 members/ $150 non-members
In giving this mini-course a title, Joseph Alchermes intentionally and for several reasons avoided the phrase "Islamic art" to refer to the visual culture that under the stimulus of a new religion, Islam, first took shape in the Middle East over 1300 years ago. The art and architecture produced for Muslim patrons historically from Cordova and Granada to Agra and Delhi (and more recently, for example, in Paris, Rome, Detroit, Washington, D.C., and New York City) show extraordinary variety over space and time; still, certain features, approaches, and principles consistently manifest themselves amid all the diversity. In our five sessions we will identify these principles and consistent patterns and analyze them in a broad range of contexts: religious and spiritual, political, intellectual, social, and more. What will emerge is a sense of the brilliant inventiveness of Islamic visual culture, and of the threads that intertwine in its rich 1300-year history. Whenever possible, discussion will focus on works in U.S. collections, especially the spectacular, recently re-installed Islamic Galleries of The Metropolitan Museum of Art.
Suggested Reading: Islamic Arts by Jonathan Bloom and Sheila Blair is a beautifully illustrated, chronologically ordered survey of works of art and architecture created for Muslim patrons in the course of the millennium from the seventh to the seventeenth century. It is recommended that you look through the entire book so that you gain a sense of the full geographic and temporal sweep of the arts in Islamic lands. In each session attention will focus on a limited number of works that embody essential characteristics of the brilliant world culture of Islam.
Weekly class will be held in the auditorium of the Lyman Allyn Art Museum, 625 Williams Street, New London. Advanced reservations are required for the series: please contact the Education Department at 860-443-2545 x2110 or firstname.lastname@example.com.
Joseph Alchermes' main research interests range from the Roman and Early Christian world to the art and architecture of the Byzantine Empire with links to western Europe. He teaches a comparably broad array of courses, from the survey of ancient and medieval art to specialized investigations of Roman, eastern and western medieval, and Islamic art and architecture. Alchermes has published articles and book chapters on diverse topics such as art and architecture in the age of the Emperor Justinian, the urban scheme of medieval Constantinople, architectural reuse in Late Roman cities, settlements and land use in medieval Greece, and an essay and numerous entries in "The Glory of Byzantium," the catalogue of a major exhibition held at The Metropolitan Museum of Art. Current projects include a book on ancient Naples and archaeological field work at several sites in southwestern mainland Greece.

2000 Daewoo Nubira - Consumer Review
Build Quality
Reliability Value

1 of 1 people found this review helpful
165,650 and still going strong
By sinclair_00 on
Vehicle2000 Daewoo Nubira SE 4dr Sedan
Review11 years and 165,650 miles later, and I still love my Daewoo Nubira SE.
It has not left me stranded, and has only overheated twice, once when my water pump died at 152,500, and then when the original radiator cracked at 162,350.
Other than that just your basic repairs, if you take care of it it will return the favor.
I really wish GM, Suzuki and the unknown third partner had bought the US division and kept it in business because it would have been nice to see where Daewoo could have gone in todays market.
Especially with the fuel prices of today.
The best investment was swapping the bad Hancook tires for BF Goodrich Traction T/A tires; it has improved the ride, performance and MPG of the Nubira.
This car is definitely a keeper, if not for a daily driver then for a perfect backup vehicle and will be used to the very end which according to my mechanic could quite possible be another 50,000+ miles.
Best FeaturesStyle, MPG, ride keyless entry and factory sound system.
Worst FeaturesBigger and better cup holder, and an arm rest would be great.

Being on the wrong electricity plan can be expensive – make sure your family is getting the best deal.
Family Times
"So we helped them switch over to a Standard User plan, subsequently dropping their total per kWh cost by around 19.5%. They're now paying around $30 per week less for the same amount of electricity compared to what they would have been paying on their old plan."

The shocking impact of being on the wrong electricity plan
Rebecca Reed, Tots To Teens
"Here at Flick, we're all about educating electricity users, no matter who your provider is. Most of us choose our user plan when we sign up with our electricity supplier and then forget about it. But changes to your living situation can have a high impact on your power bill – whether you're adding to the family, buying new appliances, changing your working hours or your living arrangements."

Flick Electric Co: Putting power in the hands of the people

Saving Kiwi's Money on Electricity, One Household at a Time
Brigitte Hicks, Inbound
"The wider context of the energy industry today is not clear, or as efficient as it could be. It's been that political hot potato where Labour and the Greens certainly pushed and asked, Are there better ways? Do we need to think about whether it is appropriately regulated? Are consumers really getting a fair deal? So the creation of Flick was really about asking those questions, working to solve the problems and create solutions."

Flick Electric raises another $5 million to power growth
Hamish Rutherford, Fairfax Media
"Companies Office records show a large chunk of the shares went to Eastland Group, the Gisborne-based energy and infrastructure group, which first invested in Flick in December. Buying close to half of the new shares, Eastland's shareholding increased its stake in Flick from around 11 per cent to more than 16 per cent."

Eastland Group takes a bigger stake in Flick

Simon Pohlen of Flick Electric: The CTO with disruptive innovation on his mind
Divina Paredes, CIO
"The company provides its customers access to the wholesale price of electricity direct from the spot market and then charges a transparent fee as a retailer. Flick's web and mobile apps and unique weekly billing system give customers key information about their consumption and price patterns, which inspires behaviour change, helps with budgeting and avoids bill shock."
15 June 2016
Flick Electric turns the lights on for NZ Businesses
NZ Business
"I like the fact I have access to real-time information on how much electricity costs and how much I am spending, so I pick the price I want to pay for the things I need to run to work for the business. For instance, I changed the time I bake to earlier in the morning (3am-6am) to take advantage of the low spot price during that time – it's saving my business money and I'm incredibly happy,"
10 June 2016
Electricity revolution: Power to the people
Pattrick Smellie, The Listener
"Flick is a no-frills company and puts the commercial risk of playing the electricity spot market with the customer, whereas the old generator-retailers agree to supply at a fixed – higher – rate no matter what happens to the 30-minute spot price of electricity. A decade ago, price spikes to hundreds and sometimes thousands of dollars an hour would probably have wiped out some Flick customers, if not Flick itself."

Face Value: Flick Electric's boss and the virtuous cycle of work
Rob Stock, Fairfax Media
"Because there's been no innovation in the category people have become apathetic – they aren't conscious of how much they're spending, what they're paying for, where their power comes from, or how they could do better. And they feel powerless about rising prices. I'm really driven to cut through that frustration and help people use technology to take back control and reduce their cost of living."

Techweek Auckland
"Our vision right from the start was to bring smart consumer energy choices to life. This remains our reason for being, our goal and focus, and what continues to motivate and drive the whole Flick team day in and day out. How we went about achieving this goal and the paths we have taken have certainly not always been as we planned, but our reason for being and what we stand for has remained really firm and resolute."

Owner/Marketer: Jessica Venning-Bryan, Flick Electric Co.
"The customer is everything to us. First of all the whole model is built around transparency with the customers, breaking everything down, showing [them] all the bits that make up their bills and giving them the tools to show how they can use electricity. We talk to them every week and tell them about market conditions. It can be anything from a planned outage on a cable to an outage at one of their power stations."

The Power of Green Thinking
Linley Boniface, Pure Advantage
"Buying electricity, says energy pioneer Steve O'Connor, should be like buying strawberries. When they're at their peak, we'll score a punnet for a couple of bucks. But when the price is rocketing, maybe we'll decide to give strawberries a miss until they're more affordable."

Disrupting the retail energy industry with price transparency and great service.

Conscious Consumers will change the world… if we let them.
Steve O'Connor, Flick Electric Co.
"A provider health-check should be as routine as a dental exam. But it's not. Because it's not seen as important. It's not seen as 'worth their while', despite there being $260m in savings up for grabs. That's the sign of a broken industry."

Shawn McAvinue, Otago Daily Times
"Greg Sise became the first Flick residential customer in Dunedin when he switched his family home to the retailer in mid-May. Mr Sise said he had no fear switching to a retailer that exposed him to the spot price electricity market. It doesn't scare me being on a pricing plan with spot prices … The nice thing about being on spot prices, when the prices are high and the supply is contracted, then you are getting that signal directly and you know when your efforts to reduce electricity consumption are going to have the greatest national benefit.

Expert opinions – a tech start-up's primer for raising capital: Part 1
Jonathan Cotton, Idealog
"Flick – the first power company in the country to offer time-of-day spot pricing, rather than a fixed flat rate – is proving itself to be the little electricity provider that just might.The company recently concluded its first growth capital round (to the not-too-shabby tune of $4.8m), also securing a good amount of brain power in the process (in the shape of several Angel HQ members, the largest group of members ever to invest in a single deal). Sweetening the pot even further is a recent $100k R&D grant from Callaghan Innovation, currently earmarked for secret "stretch" technology projects with export potential."

Consumer Watch: Lower electricity prices on offer
Susan Edmunds, NZ Herald
"Flick's costs change half hourly and are cheapest at non-peak times. Chief executive Steve O'Connor said changes in power use could lead to "pretty substantial" savings. "If you know you go home, cook a meal, fill up the dishwasher and usually put it on at 7pm [when the price is higher] you might instead wait until you go to bed to put it on when power is cheaper," he said… O'Connor said it was fair and transparent for consumers, who do not have to sign fixed-term contracts.

Increased competition in power market? Not yet, says CEO
Calida Smylie, NBR Online
"Mr O'Connor thinks the industry needs to change.

On 14 August 2015 the Federal Court of Australia handed down its latest decision in the case brought against six Australian ISPs by US entity Dallas Buyers Club LLC (DBC) and its parent company Voltage Pictures LLC. DBC commenced the proceedings for the purpose of obtaining the details of customers associated with 4,726 IP addresses that were used to download and share copies of the film "Dallas Buyers Club" (the Film) using the peer-to-peer file-sharing service BitTorrent. This latest decision carries significant implications for the increasingly borderless efforts of copyright holders to hold Australian internet users to account for pirating their products.
A key factor that distinguishes DBC's efforts from previous attempts by copyright owners to obtain the details of users from ISPs is the type of proceedings it has brought, namely an application for preliminary discovery. This type of proceeding allows a successful applicant to garner information about unidentified wrongdoers and establish whether it has enough evidence to commence a substantive claim against them or, in this case, to seek relief against those wrongdoers. DBC hopes that once it acquires the details of the users behind the infringing IP addresses, it will be able to send out letters of demand compelling them to compensate DBC for the infringement of its copyright.
In the primary decision, the Federal Court ruled that DBC had established the requisite elements to make out its application for preliminary discovery and ordered that the ISPs must hand over the details of the customers associated with the infringing IP addresses. This was grounded in the finding that users who had downloaded the Film over BitTorrent, by virtue of the way the technology works, were simultaneously uploading the content and thereby making the Film available to the public on the internet – a clear infringement of DBC's copyright under section 115 of the Copyright Act 1968 (Cth).
However the Court placed an important limitation on its orders: to prevent "speculative invoicing" of users, DBC was required to clear with the Court any correspondence which it proposes to send to ISP customers. By imposing this limitation, the Court put in place a barrier to prevent DBC making financial demands against consumers that have no proper legal basis.
DBC's Demands
DBC submitted to the Court the demands it proposed to send to the alleged infringers. While the actual sums demanded by DBC are confidential, the Court indicated that they comprise four factors, being:
- the cost of purchasing the Film;
- a "substantial" licensing fee relating to each infringer's uploading activities, which DBC argued were equivalent to widespread distribution of the Film (and given that BitTorrent constitutes a transnational network of millions of users, simultaneously uploading and downloading slivers of files, this figure could potentially be astronomical);
- punitive damages based on how many copies each infringer had downloaded of other copyrighted works; and
- a claim for damages arising from the cost DBC had expended in obtaining each infringer's details.
The Decision
In reaching its decision the Court considered whether DBC's demands could plausibly be sued for in a hypothetical proceeding for copyright infringement.
Justice Perram found that the first and fourth demands advanced by DBC were reasonable. The Court's first instance decision had already established that any person sharing the Film online via BitTorrent had undoubtedly infringed DBC's copyright. It follows from this that reasonable compensation for such infringement would include an amount equal to what it would have cost for the person to have seen the Film legitimately. As for the fourth demand, the Court found that DBC had expended significant resources in identifying the infringing IP addresses, as well as on legal costs. While the ISPs have been ordered to pay the majority of those costs, the Court held that because DBC would not have been out of pocket had the infringement not occurred in the first place, it is appropriate for the shortfall in loss to be distributed amongst the infringers.
The Court however rejected demands two and three. In relation to the second demand that it is entitled to a licence fee from each user equivalent to what it would have cost to distribute the Film via BitTorrent, the Court held that DBC's damages in any prospective court proceedings would aim to put DBC in the position it would have been had the infringements never occurred, and that there were too many counterfactual scenarios (including infringers renting the Film, seeing the Film at the cinema or foregoing watching the Film altogether). Justice Perram argued that the notion that the conceivable alternatives to the infringers downloading the Film via BitTorrent included the user negotiating a distribution agreement in consideration for a licence fee was "so surreal as not to be taken seriously."
As for DBC's third demand, the Court held that this argument was based on an incorrect reading of section 115 of the Act. In particular, the provision does not provide for damages to be calculated with reference to the infringement of a third party's copyright.
The Court concluded that it will only order the ISPs to hand over the customer details sought if DBC provides the Court with a written undertaking that it will restrict its demands to those which the Court has ruled as permissible, namely compensation for the purchase price of the Film and the costs DBC has expended in obtaining the IP addresses.
In addition, because DBC has no presence in Australia (meaning the Court is unable to punish it for contempt if it fails to honour that undertaking), the Court ordered that DBC's undertaking must be secured by the lodging of a $600,000 bond. The bond was set at that amount having regard to the amounts that DBC had proposed to demand and the potential revenue it might make from customers based on its second and third demands which were rejected by the Court. The intent of the bond is to ensure that it will not be profitable for DBC to make those demands in breach of its undertaking.
Justice Perram also stated that the reasons for his decision are not limited to the current case, but rather will apply in all future applications where a copyright holder seeks access to user details from ISPs via preliminary discovery. In particular, applicants will be required to put on evidence regarding the precise nature of the demands they propose to make to ISP customers. Thus by this decision the Court has rebalanced the status quo: from a primary decision that was seen by some as opening the way for a flood of claims brought by copyright holders against individuals, to a carefully limited regime in which applicants will be subject to strict requirements as to what they can demand from alleged infringers.

There are many individuals that want to be entrepreneurs but get their plans turned down by potential funders for various reasons. Here are some of the mistakes to avoid when dealing with funders:
Funders dont want to hear you have no competition. This sends the message that there is no market to fulfillthere are no customers for the needs you are focusing on. However, if there is a market, and thus an actual need to fulfill, then funders understand there will be competitors that you have not found yet, or you are trying to get them to disregard the competition by merit of your plan. Do not attempt to fool them because funders can find the competition through their own research, which serves only to discredit you and makes you appear to be dishonest and/or incompetent.
Do not think about fast returns from a business or product until direct competitors are in the market. This is a mistake if not paired with a description of the short term profits and how they will change the company. Investors want to put their money in companies with future potential and are wary of get rich quick schemes that promise quick returns with little long-term advantages. They want a business that has steady growth and good projections.
While portraying your company as ready for a strategic sale is attractive to investors, you have to have evidence. This should include cases of like purchases by that company and include details of how the situations are the same. You also want to prove how it will be cheaper for such and such to purchase your business than to build the same work, brand, and products on your own. Your claims have to be backed with facts otherwise investors will have a dim view or your planning.

Having Your Cake And Hedging It Too
Another 52-Week High For The Cheesecake Factory
With shares of the upscale, casual restaurant operator The Cheesecake Factory (NASDAQ: CAKE) hitting another 52-week high on Wednesday, here are a couple of ways shareholders can protect their gains with some downside protection.
Two Ways To Hedge CAKE
Below, we'll look at two different ways of hedging CAKE against a greater-than-20% decline. The first way uses optimal puts*; this way has a higher cost, but allows uncapped upside. These are the optimal puts, as of Wednesday's close, for an investor looking to hedge 1000 shares of CAKE against a greater-than-20% drop between now and October 18th:
As you can see in the screen capture above, the cost of those optimal puts, as a percentage of position, is 2.09%. Note that, to be conservative, cost here was calculated using the ask price of the optimal puts; in practice an investor can often buy puts for a lower price (i.e., some price between the bid and the ask).
A CAKE investor interested in hedging against the same, greater-than-20% decline between now and October 18th, but also willing to cap his potential upside at 17% over that time frame, could use the optimal collar** below to hedge instead. We've used a 17% cap here because that was the highest cap at which there was still a significant cost reduction associated with collaring CAKE over the next several months.
As you can see at the bottom of the screen capture above, the net cost of this optimal collar, as a percentage of position value, is 1.05%.
*Optimal puts are the ones that will give you the level of protection you want at the lowest possible cost. Portfolio Armor uses an algorithm developed by a finance Ph.D to sort through and analyze all of the available puts for your stocks and ETFs, scanning for the optimal ones.
**Optimal collars are the ones that will give you the level of protection you want at the lowest net cost, while not limiting your potential upside by more than you specify. The algorithm to scan for optimal collars was developed in conjunction with a post-doctoral fellow in the financial engineering department at Princeton University. The screen captures above come from the Portfolio Armor iOS app.
