The Food Bank of Northwest Indiana has been leading the Region's fight against hunger since 1982 and distributes more than 4.3 million meals each year to hungry kids, adults and seniors across Lake and Porter counties. Each month the Food Bank serves more than 20,000 individuals through its 100+ partner agencies and programs like Pantry on the Go, Commodity Supplemental Food Program for seniors and the BackPack program.
Each year more than 145,000 households are served by agencies in Lake and Porter Counties.
In Northwest Indiana, more than 100,000 individuals are food insecure, meaning they lack access to enough good, nutritious food for themselves and their families. In other words, one in six people in our community doesn't know where their next meal will come from. Because of generous supporters, corporate partners and grant monies, the Food Bank of Northwest Indiana is able to provide hope to thousands of our hungry neighbors.
Check out the video below to take a behind-the-scenes look at how the staff, volunteers, and community work together to feed thousands of hungry individuals and families across the Region.

This course will be led by renowned senior FPMT Australian nun, Ven. Robina Courtin.
Venerable Robina is acclaimed for her unique, down-to-earth and intense teaching style. Moreover, this course is inspired by her knowledge of the Buddha Dharma's practical approach to life, and to death (one's own and that of those we love), gained by editing a compilation of Kyabje Lama Zopa Rinpoche's teachings on this subject: How to Enjoy Death – Preparing to Meet Life's Final Challenge without Fear.
This course serves as either an introduction to Buddhism, or as an opportunity for those who have already attended an introductory course who would like to deepen their knowledge of the Buddhist approach to death and dying.
The format will include meditation, Buddhist philosophy classes, group discussions and pilgrimage to the Mahabodhi Stupa with Ven. Robina for blessings and inspiration on alternate evening sessions.

"This is Fulham for heaven sake".
2 thoughts on "One Year Ago Today (part 2)"
I still remember it so fondly. It felt like at that point, going into the finals, Fulham were on the brink of something huge. I just wonder what would have happened if we held on those 2-3 extra minutes in the finals…where would we be today? Would it have raised the profile THAT much more?
Either way, it was such an exciting time. The team was playing united, beautiful football…always getting those bounces that make the difference. I can only hope that it wasn't a one-off and that we have more moments like this one to look forward to.

Qarn Bint Saud - (32)
This large rock outcrop measures some 800 x 200 m and stands c. 60 m tall. It is located c. 15 km to the north of the Al Ain oasis offers a fantastic view of the desert surrounding it. Like a scaled down Jebel Hafit, Qarn Bint Saud has always been visible from a distance and seems to have attracted the pre-modern inhabitants of the region in all periods. Graves of the type found at Jebel Hafit and Jebel Emalah, dating to c. 3000 BC, stand at the base of Qarn Bint Saud, while graves of the second millennium BC, contemporary with those at Qattarah and Ghalilah, stand on its flat-topped summit, as do graves of the first millennium contemporary with Awhala or Muweilah. Several kilometres west of Qarn Bint Saud, nestled in the dunes to the west of the rock outcrop, is a mudbrick village, inundated by sand, like the ones at Rumeilah, al-Madam and al-Thuqaibah.
Qattarah - (33)
In the early 1970s a Shimal-type long tomb was excavated by an Iraqi team at Qattarah, a neighbourhood in Al Ain in the interior of Abu Dhabi. The tomb at Qattarah was one of the very first tombs of second millennium BC date excavated in the Emirates. The material from this excavation is stored and, to some extent, displayed in the Al Ain Museum. Among the most notable finds is a gold ornament consisting of a double-headed, single-bodied animal. Similar finds are known from the sites of Dhayah in northern Ra's al-Khaimah and Bidya in northern Fujairah. These were probably worn as a large medallion in a necklace.

If you don't already know this, these guys have been one of my favourite bands for quite a while now. Their discography across the span of 22 years has been the epitome of consistency as well as change which is definitely not something most metal bands out there can boast of. For a lot of the die-hard fans the band's shift into a more symphonic metal template post Sumerian Daemons leading up to this very album, was not well received leading to accusations of the band selling out and sounding like generic symphonic metallers Dimmu Borgir losing most of the elements that made them unique in the first place. Now if you're still reading, kindly allow me to clear up the sheer ridiculousness of that previous sentence.
To all of you still wondering - No, the band has not lost any of their unique elements whatsoever and to clarify the change in sound, yes they have. However while Dimmu Borgir probably have some of the most boring riff progressions out there using simple chug riffs as a background for the symphonies to become overwhelming and wank all over the place, Septicflesh plant their flag firmly in the middle of both genres, i.e this album is literally equal parts symphony and metal with some really sick ass riffs to boot. The ratio is actually 50:50 and unlike Dimmu Borgir, There are actual RIFFS and the orchestral/symphonic arrangements never feel overwhelming or forced in the slightest plus the arrangements actually interact with the heavier guitar parts and the snarling vocals/growls in a way that is rarely seen in most of the symphonic metal acts out there. There are times when it's just the vocals and the sinister arrangements on display giving you the feeling of being trapped in the very depths and bowels of a Lovecraftian nightmare. It's hard to properly articulate and get my point across regarding this but you'll see what I mean once you're done listening to this album. Just so you know, the orchestral arrangements are bombastically epic and creepy as hell. The blistering opener "Lovecraft's Death", (one heck of a name) the skin-peeling riffs and bombast of "We, The Gods" and the fast paced operatic intro of the epic title track should be enough of an indication for the uninitiated. The arrangements give the feel of a climatic march towards the battlefield back in the time of the Romans and the like. There are even clean vocals in "Anubis", "Sunlight/Moonlight" (with its amazing harmonized leads) and "Sangreal" (what an epic intro) adding a remarkable diverse element to the album as well that most of the other symphonic metal bands lack. "Narcissus" is a bit like the aftermath of the storm with a boatload of melodic leads and riffs that you can almost hum to, sounding almost like an Iron Maiden song on a death metal template. An incredible song and a perfect way to end the album.
The riffs are simply ungodly, with a combination of some manic hyper speedy chugs, addictive blackened death metal riffs, even a bit of thrash here and there and a nasty bit of tremolo along with some scintillating melodies to boot. Really tasty riffage that you can sink your teeth in and dig for a long time. Crude I know, but I had to use that twisted analogy to get the point across. Also "Babel's Gate" has an unexpected melodic breakdown at 2:12 right after the epic classical build-up creating a really interesting study in contrasts that a lot of bands out there would do well to learn from and take notes. "Persepolis" is the longest song on the album sporting pretty much a checklist of everything that makes Septicflesh the band it is - weaving melodies, chugging riffs, explosive flourishes of the orchestral arrangements interwoven with the amazing songwriting that the band has always been know for, you name it! As much as I want to proclaim this as my favourite on the album, I simply cannot as pretty much every single other song on the album is as kickass as this one with killer songwriting as well as inducing the spasmodic headbanging reflex. Yep I said it.
I don't care about anyone else's opinion on the matter - this is hands down, one of the best symphonic death metal albums I've heard. Now bugger off and listen to it if you haven't already.
Lovecraft's Death? Anubis? We, the Gods? Communion has some of the best tracks of Septicflesh's career. After transitioning to a much cleaner, orchestral sound on Sumerian Daemons; Communion picks up right where they left off. Compositions have been further tightened, but the same elements are at play. You've got the doomy guitar chords, gothic string arrangements, arena drumming, and of course that intense death metal growl.
So why do I not score this as highly as, say, Titan? All of the best songs are in the first half of the record. In my opinion, the album ends with the spectacularly crushing We the Gods. Afterward, this engine loses all of its steam. Part of what has made the latter Septicflesh albums so great is that they have used the clean vocals more sparingly for greater effect. It's not that this guy can't sing. In fact, he has a very unique voice that works well when used right. Unfortunately on tracks like Sunlight/Moonlight, the vocal melodies sound cheesy and the writing of the music is extremely bland. These last four tracks can't hold a candle to the first five.
The worst offender is Sangreal. Despite being considered as a standout single, I cannot stand this track. "Sangreal...How Real..." How about not? These lyrics are so hilariously bad I have to hit skip pretty much every time. This tends to be a recurring complaint I have with groups not so well versed in English that choose to forgo their native tongue. However, I find the rest of the lyrics on the growling parts to be quite competent. I think it has more to do with a desire to create an easily singable hook. However, the results are atrocious.
At only 39 minutes, this is still a really good album. Even if you are like me and don't enjoy the second half, you don't have to suffer it for long. The longest of the latter tracks, Persepolis, actually has some enjoyable moments to help break up the crummier ones. If you are looking for for the same ideas presented here but more consistently, grab the spectacular The Great Mass an Titan.
One of the great things about metal music these days is the need for innovation and integration. There are many bands that combine elements of other genres, such as classical and operatic influences that really bring the music up a notch with regards to the power of the musical message being offered to the listener. There are some bands that take this approach of integration to a whole new level. One such band that comes to the top of my mental list is The Project Hate MCMXCIX. Their bombastic classical arrangements compliment the sheer aggression of the music and gives the listener an exquisite extreme metal experience. Another such band is Septic Flesh (or in this case, Septicflesh). These Greeks are one of the great bands coming out of the Aegean and set the bar high for others to follow.
Here we have "Communion", their first full length release post breakup. This was my first introduction to the band, and I was impressed with the elements of powerful classical music; namely a nod toward Gustav Holst's "The Planets", and Wagnerian emotive movements. There are many huge horn sections, especially in the first five songs. We get a hint of some of the later tracks and what they will offer, which would be from the track "Anubis Gate". In this track, we not only have hard-hitting horns and driving extreme metal melodies. We are also introduced to a semi-power metal vocal style that is coupled with the death metal growls. A typical recipe for these songs is driving blast-beat laden death metal with the growling vocals for the verses, and headbang-worthy bridges and choruses. This is also where the heaviest orchestrations take place, and the songs are elevated from "pretty good" to "fucking awesome" within a few bars of music. A great example of this is the first track Lovecraft's Death, as well as We, The Gods. Unfortunately, this excellent formula goes awry, and it will be here that I attempt to convey my irritation for the deviation about to take place.
First and foremost, there is a brooding, and angry tone to the entire album that brings thoughts of Dante's Inferno, and the deepest depths of Hades. The only major deviations are the tracks Sunlight/Moonlight, as well as Narcissus. These deviations are what throws the wheels off this speeding freight train. To me, these songs turn the momentum gained from the first half of the album into something akin to an 18-wheeler needing to use the runaway truck off-ramps that are nothing but big sand pits. This album is plowing away, eating up the miles of the musical highway, until there is a big old sand pit right in front of it, and saps all momentum in a flash. Sunlight/Moonlight is a song that would have a fitting place on Therion's album "Gothic Kabbalah". Sure there is the death metal element, and growling vocals, but if you take a look at the musical elements and lyrics, something doesn't match up right. It has a pop metal feel, with the clean pseudo-power metal vocals, a complete lack of underlying anger, and the subject matter in the lyrics are MUCH less mythological and occult-like in nature. It feels completely out of place, and the same exact thing can be said about the final track on the album, Narcissus. This song is another track that has no place on this mammoth album, and has a less playful feel than Sunlight/Moonlight, but still does not fit the motif of the overall album. There is absolutely no atmosphere and is a straight-up mid-paced melodic death metal song. What it is lacking in atmosphere, it does make up in a mid-song solo, which is not too bad; but the damage is done.
These two tracks seem to me to be thrown in there willy-nilly because they were out of ideas, material, or both, and does a huge disservice to the rest of the recording. What makes things worse, is these two out of place tracks bookend songs of the same vein as the first half and make the misstep even more grossly apparent to the listener. Despite this however, this is a whale of an album, and is a great listen. I highly recommend this for fans of bands like The Project Hate, and Rotting Christ, as well as any other death metal band that infuses crushing death metal with classical influences.
The 21st century Septic Flesh, which takes its sweet time plotting and refining its Gothic death metal legacy into blazing, unforgettable hymns of eloquent brutality and extravagance, has continued to scale in quality which each consecutive release. Sumerian Daemons went beyond a just recompense for the seasoned Greeks' sole stumbling block (Revolution DNA), and through Communion, they've honed and polished their modus operandi to new, streamlined heights with even better balanced and catchier songwriting than nearly any of their back catalog, and the one exception, Ophidian Wheel, simply can't match the stunning production values here; rich and fulfilling, dark and exotic, an impeccable median between modernism and antiquity.
Communion is, at its core, a celebration of all of the band's previous iterations, a hybrid of Goth and death and doom, with an undercurrent of weighted grooves and searing, longing melodies that even succeeds in one-upping Revolution DNA at its own game. The architecture is truly extraordinary, with each track providing both refreshing thrills and memorable compositions that the listener will be constantly rewarded with. The orchestration is perfectly laid out behind the central chug and churn so as to rob it of ever succumbing to ennui, and the guttural vocals and choirs incessantly struggle with one another as if a grudge match of the seraphic and unholy, with that same Far Eastern melodic mysticism bands like Therion and Celtic Frost once tapped into during their primes. Some might balk at the Greeks' constant use of chugging, prevalent low end guitars here, but I can assure you that they are all means to a glorious, mighty end that excuses their cultural primacy.
Fuck, even the COVER of this album won't let you forget it. A paean of old. A patient, pagan beast. Staring.
The hooks are immediate here, with "Lovecraft's Death" ensnaring the listener with its tide of male and female choirs, layered bark and rasp, incendiary melodic glaze, double bass barrage, and the roiling, thickness of its muted substrate. The horns cut straight through, conjuring images of the fell empires, mad Arabs and arcane abominations implicit in the titular author. But then, just as quickly, Septic Flesh have changed up the formula with their tribute to Egypt's jackal faced death deity, "Anubis", which opens with dreary, memorable clean guitars before the sailing, desert melodies ensues. The title track receives merit for its chaotic surge into one of the more belligerent, ominous bridges on the album, just after the minute mark, in which Fotis Benardo beats the living fuck out of his kit while cautionary orchestration bleats out in the background and Spiros' vocals grumble like an earthquake. A few further tracks mirror this formula ("We the Gods", "Babel's Gate"), but there is further deviation as the band crank out a couple cuts in the mold of A Fallen Temple, Gothic tinged death/doom elegies like "Sunlight Moonlight" and "Narcissus".
Hell, they even one-up Revolution DNA with a similar creation called "Sangreal" which sows the same, accessible seeds of sharper, clean vocals over driving rock chords, but then manages to tilt back the scale with its brutal bridge. The one area in which I didn't find myself completely drawn in to the album was the lyrics, which often feel a bit cliche and simplistic. For example, their tribute to H.P. Lovecraft plays like a potpourri of fanboy references rather than allusion of truly obscure horror which the man deserves. Only the final lines 'you stared at the abyss/you'll never rest in peace' feel even remotely poignant. "We the Gods", "Anubis" and "Sunlight/Moonlight" also feel rather half-assed. It's not that I can't appreciate the simplicity of the images, but I too often felt that the music itself was more poetic than the words. However, as I've been reminded many times by fellow metal fans that they pay attention to lyrics about as often as delinquent medical bills, I suppose this is not the most capacious of gripes. And in every other category, Communion is one of this band's highlights, a sensor staring into both the future and the past.
In all honesty when I first heard the name Septicflesh I was not all that interested in hearing them. Call it ignorance or basing a band solely on their name, but I thought they were a grindcore band more than anything. I mean with a name like Septicflesh surely most would come to that assumption.
Recently, a friend of mine sent me one of their songs, which was "Lovecraft's Death." I listened to it and let me just say I know when I am wrong and I am not afraid to admit it. Hailing from Grece, the same country as Rotting Christ, a band I am also quite fond of, Septic Flesh offer the same atmosphere as Rotting Christ, but they are a great deal heavier.
What really struck me about this album first of all was the use of the synth. This provided the album with a very eerie atmosphere at some parts of the record, but at other parts for example in "Sunlight Moonlight" it provided more of an uplifting atmosphere. Albums with such mood altering use of atmosphere are very rare to me, but this is what makes this album so enjoyable.
The second aspect that struck a chord with me (no pun intended) was the riffing. The guitars do not sound overly complex, however they are very audible and provide some parts in songs that would make any metal fan want to headbang along. I also really enjoyed the drumming. It may not have been technical either, but it kept a great tempo that flowed nicely with the guitar.
Now, I am only rating this album at an 80 % for one very simple reason. The only drawback I find in this album is that the vocals seem to take a back seat to the instruments. I would like to be able to have the vocals a little more audible, but this may be because I myself am a death metal vocalist and I am biased towards vocals over anything else.
Aside from this one minor detail Septicflesh's Communion offers an emotion provoking listen coupled with excellent musicianship. I would strongly recommend this release to anyone who is a fan of Rotting Christ or other atmospheric bands who are interested
'Communion' the latest opus of Greek lords Septic Flesh, is something of an unusual album, in that it is abundantly clear from the album's first play that normal parameters for a band commonly painted with the 'atmospheric' brush have been almost entirely disregarded. Few of the traditional conceits about atmosphere and mood are present here, but despite this overt subversion of expectation, the music still leaps forth from the speakers and leaves an indelible mark in an entirely different fashion.
Songs such as 'We, The Gods' and 'Sunlight/Moonlight' are not compositions dripping in ominous mood, largely due to the fact that the aggressive force of Septic Flesh's heavier side runs riot around the grandiose cries of the plentiful orchestration used throughout, and very little time seems to be given to ambience of the menacing sort.
Instead, 'Communion' dives headlong into the task of blending chaotic and refreshingly unpredictable death metal with a classically-influenced taste for grand, melodic textures. Standout tracks such as the ambitious opener 'Lovecraft's Death' and the storming war-cry of the title piece see Septic Flesh meld these metallic pretensions seamlessly with haunted choral passages and towering orchestration – and this is orchestration done extraordinarily well, neither underdone through a lone synthesizer nor overdone with a mammoth philharmonic of musicians.
With a production that is enjoyable unpolished, yet still sharp and defined, assisting matters no end, the album is a supremely in-depth and rich experience. Deep, bellowing horns clash with shrieking, writhing violas on a constant basis, creating a surprisingly varied sound despite the band's (wise) decision to avoid loading down the record with unnecessary pompous embellishments.
These elements, backed up with the additional influence of clean harmonised vocalisations and lead passages, serve both to underscore and valiantly progress the satisfyingly hard-hitting work of the conventionally amped-up Septic boys, rather than hijack the material and become a prop for the material to stand precariously up against.
Make no mistake, as a pure extreme metal album, 'Communion' is powerful all in its own right – those who will care little for the orchestration can revel in compositions that have masterfully retained an innate sense for heaviness; blast beats, grooving headbang-worthy passages and some purely superb riffs are all here. The masterstroke of 'Communion' in short is that it is an album that engages openly and expertly in a myriad of ideas and concepts, while still remaining in possession of a forceful drive that just begs a listener to start a bout of pit-based violence to it.
Septic Flesh have bridged a gap between extreme metal audiences with sublime ease here. 'Communion' is an album of extraordinary maturity and depth of thought, and yet it will still appeal unendingly to those out for a purely heavy modern death metal album. An album to suit every musical pallet, Septic Flesh have outdone themselves superbly well.
Sumerian Demons, the last album released by this Greek extreme metal band in 2003 was simply stunning and the band's best. After that, for whatever reason the band decided to disband and I thought that was it for the band. However, the band decided to reform in late 2007 and earlier this year released Communion.
Septic Flesh was always an ambitious band and Communion is no different. The music is mostly death metal but what makes the songs stand out is the use of an orchestra and a bombastic over the top symphonic feel to the music that is more militaristic than classical.
The album opens with the stunning Lovecraft's Death with its chugging groove and what sounds like a horn section merrily blasting away. The choirs and synth effects push this song up to Therion standards while the deathly rasp is a particularly effective vocal style for this music. Lovecraft's Death sets the blueprint for the rest of the album. It's all mostly chuggy death metal with some very inventive use of an orchestra, synth and choir with some melodic underpinnings and the occasional clean sung vocal.
Stand out tracks include the superb Annubis with its epic feel and the rampaging title track Communion which again makes terrific use of the orchestra. Babel's Gate is probably the heaviest song on the album and again boasts of some very cool use of the orchestra and terrific drumming to ensure that the song has a very unique vibe while still retaining its death metal feel. There's some Therion in the music in the sense of a death metal band combining orchestration and a full blown choir but the comparison is made at the surface level. At the end of the day this is Septic Flesh as they've always been, epic, grand sounding and absolutely fearless when it comes to experimenting. Another thing that works for the album is that it's all wrapped up in less than forty minutes and the songs are mostly short and to the point. There's plenty of experimentation but luckily very little wankery.
The band is pretty much the same except for a new drummer who sounds terrific. The vocalist is still one of the most brutal fuckers around in extreme metal but uses a fair amount of effects this time round. All in all, the band are in terrific shape and have put out an album that's as good as Sumerian Demons if not better.
Communion is an album that is going to make long time fans of the band very happy indeed and at the same time if you've never heard this band before then Communion is pretty much the perfect place to start.
Originally written for http://www.kvltsite.com
Like many other modern symphonic metal albums having an actual orchestra to bolster up their sound, Communion forgets substance over style. Guitars are blunt and pretty simple, mostly there to underline and accentuate growled/shouted vocals and keep the rhythm solid. Songwriting-wise this album contains many promises but does not come through with all of them. A few times it is found that the songs do not grow to satisfactory endings, instead opting to repeat old parts in a semi-aimless fashion. "Babel's Gate" or "Communion" are good examples of this, with very interesting beginnings but slightly disappointing (if enthralling) endings.
The mood, while slightly impersonal because of all the overbearing epicness, will grow to useful heights at times thanks to several subtle factors. Lyrics for one are unusual and fitting to the sound, consisting of strange mystic ideas and atmospheric stories. Choirs and chamber music parts also enhance the precious mystic edge this album has. It has to be mentioned here that the album's mix and overall sound is clean, clear and almost perfect - it helps too.
Great for a few listens but then it starts to wear thin. Hopefully they realize their full power before next release, because their style and ideas have a lot of potential.
They're back with a vengeance. One of the founding fathers of the Greek death metal scene and probably the best known act abroad alongside with Rotting Christ, really delivered with their latest release "Communion". It has been a total mystery to me why this formidable band decided to follow separate ways after the release of the much praised "Sumerian Daemons" album. Fortunately, they are back together creating quality music once again.
This album is characterized by maturity in compositions and a very well polished sound. It sums up many of the various musical paths the band has once followed since it combines atmosphere, melody and raw power. Thus, while the first half up to "We, the Gods" could be characterized as brutal and straight forward, the remaining four tracks are more mid tempo and quite melodic bringing back memories from their "Revolution DNA" experimental period. The blending of brutal and clean vocals is in an optimal analogy, balancing successfully on the thin line of power and emotion.
A special note should be made for Christos Antoniou's orchestrations that add a unique touch to the final result. Not many musicians out there can claim to possess such musical prowess. Get this album and I guarantee you won't be disappointed. Don't expect a new "ESOPTRON" or "Ophidian Wheel" (my personal favorites) as masterpieces don't come out every day, but expect a robust death metal release from a band that has never stopped evolving.

The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (or just ACA) includes a focus on preventing illness before it happens. The ACA provides affordable insurance options for children and adults with disabilities or pre-existing conditions who do not have health insurance. The ACA also requires many insurance plans to provide "well visits" and preventive care with no copays! That is a big change for many people.
Partner with your health care provider to get the preventive care you deserve and take a lead role in promoting health choices and routines at home and where you live, work, and play.
Family Voices Project IMPACT has a new resource on the ACA and Health Promotion. You'll find tips and information on:
Prevention and Health Promotion Happens at Home!
To prevent illness and stay as healthy as possible, the ACA also focuses on Bright Futures health promotion activities and recommendations. Bright Futures is the name of the American Academy of Pediatrics program that is built on prevention and health promotion.
Many of the Bright Futures recommendations and activities happen at home or in the community, not in the doctor's office. What you do at home every day matters and will have lifelong impact on your family's health and well-being.
Remember, if you have a child with special health care needs, you will still need to advocate for your child to ensure that he or she receives the treatment and services needed.

Intertemporal Investment Strategies Under Inflation Risk
This paper studies intertemporal investment strategies under inflation risk by extending the intertemporal framework of Merton (1973) to include a stochastic price index. The stochastic price index gives rise to a two-tier evaluation system: agents maximize their utility of consumption in real terms while investment activities and wealth evolution are evaluated in nominal terms. We include inflation-indexed bonds in the agents' investment opportunity set and study their effectiveness in hedging against inflation risk. A new multifactor term structure model is developed to price both inflation-indexed bonds and nominal bonds, and the optimal rules for intertemporal portfolio allocation, both with and without inflation-indexed bonds are obtained in closed form. The theoretical model is estimated using data of US bond yield, both real and nominal, and S&P 500 index. The estimation results are employed to construct the optimal investment strategy for an actual real market situation. Wachter (2003) pointed out that without inflation risk, the most risk averse agents (with an infinite risk aversion parameter) will invest all their wealth in the long term nominal bond maturing at the end of the investment horizon. We extend this result to the case with inflation risk and conclude that the most risk averse agents will now invest all their wealth in the inflation-indexed bond maturing at the end of the investment horizon.

What it means when your hot girl "friend" sends suggestive text messages to you late at night of herself naked under the sheets saying "I'm Sleeping Naked." How you should respond to seduce her.
In this video coaching newsletter I answer an email from a viewer who has a girl "friend" who used to date one of his buddies. The two of them hang out together quite a bit. She initiates texts to him 60%-70% of the time (70%-80% is what I have found to be ideal and teach.) However, even though this girl puts herself out there by emailing him pictures of herself naked under the sheets late at night, it appears her playful signals are sailing over his head. Don't be afraid to ask for what you want. Women like guys who can read between the lines and take advantage of guiltless no strings attached sex.

Should Walmart Imitate Costco? The Variation in Retail Wages
March 18, 2016
Living wage advocates often accuse Walmart of being one of the worst offenders when it comes to low pay, and point to Costco as a model to follow because it allegedly pays higher wages. But is it realistic to expect all types of retailers to pay the same wage?

Former Hawks president seeks consortium to buy boyhood club Everton
A US executive who was president of NBA basketball team Atlanta Hawks is seeking a consortium to buy out Everton.
Liverpool-born businessman Bernard Mullin, a life-long Toffees fan, has met leading shareholders at Everton and has approached a number of high-profile individuals around the world.
The move by Mullin, who runs US-based sports marketing firm The Aspire Group, highlights how desperate the situation has become for Everton. Chairman Bill Kenwright, who took control at Goodison Park in 1999, has made clear in recent years that Everton need outside investment if they are to compete with Manchester United, Chelsea and the rest on a regular basis.
His search, though, has thus far proved fruitless. A number of rumoured investments, both domestic and international, have failed to materialise.
Mullin met with Kenwright in recent months to say he may be able to find a buyer for the club, although he has not been appointed to work for Everton.
Mullin has sent out a formal three-page document to potential buyers detailing Everton's valuation and the amount of investment required at the club. He believes the holdings of Everton's top three shareholders, which total 75pc, could be acquired for between £75m and £100m.
In addition, he has told prospective buyers that any renovation to Goodison Park is likely to require a minimum of £250m investment to create a state-of-the-art 50,000-seat stadium.
Plans to relocate Everton to a new stadium -- thereby increasing match-day revenue -- firstly to a desirable location on the city's King's Dock and then to a less popular arena, outside the city in Kirkby, have been abandoned.
Everton will, barring a remarkable upturn in fortunes, be absent from the Europa League for the second consecutive season next year, making the funds that manager David Moyes desperately requires appear even more distant.
Moyes' last major expense came with the signings of Russian international Diniyar Bilyaletdinov, Holland's Johnny Heitinga and Sylvain Distin in the summer of 2009, but even those funds came from the £23m sale of Joleon Lescott to Manchester City.
Since then, the Scot has grown ever more outspoken on the subject of those rivals outspending Everton; it is not simply Chelsea and United, but also Sunderland and Stoke, he believes.
Moyes has said he will not walk out on Everton unless the fans directed their ire at him. Given the limbo the club exists in without investment, it seems a decision made more with his heart than his head. (© Daily Telegraph, London)

English cricketer jailed for drug smuggling
Former England fast bowler Chris Lewis has been jailed for 13 years after being found guilty of smuggling cocaine into Britain in his cricket bag.
A jury at Croydon Crown Court near London convicted Lewis of trying to bring more than 140,000 pounds ($280,000) worth of the drug into the country from St Lucia, packed in cans of fruit and vegetable juice.
His co-accused Chad Kirnon was also found guilty and received the same sentence.
Lewis, 41, played 32 Tests and 53 one-day internationals in the 1990s.
He had claimed in his defence that he did not even know cocaine could be converted into the liquid form in which it was discovered in his luggage when he arrived at London's Gatwick Airport in December last year.
When asked if he realised he had drugs in his luggage, Lewis insisted: "I thought I was carrying fruit juice."
The court heard he had known Kirnon for two or three years but had lost touch before they bumped into each other just a month before flying to St Lucia.
Following their arrest, they had fallen out and Lewis claimed Kirnon was responsible for the four kilogrammes of cocaine found in his kit bag.
Lewis claimed he suspected his co-defendant was involved in drugs when he was found to be carrying 7,000 pounds ($14,000) in cash on arrival on the Caribbean island.
But the prosecution said Lewis had orchestrated the scheme with Kirnon.
Lewis admitted smoking marijuana "from time to time", but said he had never touched cocaine.
Guyana-born Lewis took 93 wickets during his England Test career and 66 wickets in one-day internationals, at averages of 37.5 and 29.4 respectively.
Tipped to become the new Ian Botham early in his career, he was widely regarded as having failed to realise his full potential.
Lewis retired from county cricket in 2000 because of a persistent hip injury after spells with Leicestershire, Nottinghamshire and Surrey.

And this isn't purely anecdotal. The pricing-intelligence firm TrueCar has a team of analysts looking at historical sales data and specific transaction prices in the past (from a database of more than 300,000 vehicle sales), weighing those trends with current pricing, incentives, and market demand, to predict what will happen again over the next period, typically 30 days.
For instance, in TrueCar's last analysis of the best and worst days to buy a cars, covering February 16 through March 18, the firm predicted that February 27 would offer the highest projected discount (6.52 percent), while next Friday, March 12, will offer the lowest average discount (5.45 percent).
That's more than a $400 difference on a $40,000 vehicle.
Jesse Toprak, TrueCar's vice president for industry trends, said that these predictions start with simply looking at what happened in the past, every day of the year. "There's a very strong pattern of seasonality," Toprak said, so it's a good indication that these strong or weak days will repeat. "What's happened in the past plays a role."

Review of "Lamborghini Diablo VT 6.0"
"the most beautiful road car"
The lamborghini diablo is the newest diablo out and with its 6 litre quad cam engine it is also the fastest. The 0-60mph times are amazing and at just 3.2 seconds it is one of the fastest accellerating cars around today. The top end speed of this car is also one of the greatest things about it, with it reaching well over 200mph. The amount of torque that this massive engine provides is so great bthat changing down through the gears is often irellevant. The lamborghini diablo is all wheel drive which gives it superb handling in all weather conditions. The racing version of the diablo vt is just amazing and i would advise anyone into motrosport to go and check it out on the track

Unanswered: Stored Procedure with input and output parameter
I have created a stored procdure with a in and out pararmeter. It
takes the name of a designer as an in parameter and otput parameter
of the categories of furnitures the designer has created. When i run
the stored procedure I am getting an empty record.. although therea
are supposed to be a number of categories of furnitures for the
desinger name I send as an input parmeter. Have I missed something
The Stored Procdure code:
CREATE PROCEDURE spDesignerKat
@Designer nvarchar (20) ,
@Kategori nvarchar (20) output
dbo.VIEW1tbl.ProdID, dbo.VIEW1tbl.ProdNamn, dbo.VIEW1tbl.LevNamn,
dbo.VIEW1tbl.DesingerNamn, dbo.VIEW1tbl.KatNamn,
dbo.VIEW1tbl.SubKatNamn, dbo.VIEW1tbl.serieNamn,
dbo.VIEW1tbl.Beskrivning, dbo.VIEW1tbl.Dimentioner,
dbo.VIEW1tbl.PrisEuro, dbo.VIEW1tbl.PrisEuro * dbo.Kurs.SekKurs AS
PrisSek, dbo.VIEW1tbl.BildLiten, dbo.VIEW1tbl.BildStor,
dbo.VIEW1tbl.Width, dbo.VIEW1tbl.Height
FROM dbo.VIEW1tbl CROSS JOIN dbo.Kurs
WHERE DesingerNamn = @Designer
KatNamn = @Kategori
ORDER BY dbo.VIEW1tbl.ProdNamn
The execution code:
declare @DesignerKategori nvarchar (20)
declare @KatVar nvarchar (20)
exec @DesignerKategori = spDesignerKat @Designer = 'Walter Knoll',
@Kategori = @KatVar OUTPUT

You have to assign a value to @Kategori. Unfortunately, this variable is only used in the where clause. The procedure would have to look something more like:
use pubs
create procedure test (@input varchar(40), @output varchar(11) output)
select @output = au_id
from authors
where au_fname = @input
Probably what you need is to have two selects in the procedure. One to collect the category you want returned in the output parameter, and one to return the dataset. Hope this helps.

'Stored Procedure with input and output parameter'
thanks.. but how would the exec code for this sp look like.. the store proc code is the following as your example:
create procedure test (@input varchar(40), @output varchar(11) output)
select @output = KatNamn
from VIEW1tbl
where DesingerNamn = @input
If I supply the input parameter with the designer name 'Jorge Pensi' and want to return the out parameter to supply all the category of furnitures he has designed. The out parameter is connected to the columm KatNamn

Hmm. An output parameter can only hold a single value (like a return status). If you need to get a list of values, you should probably re-write the procedure as
create procedure test (@input varchar(40))
select KatNamn
from VIEW1tbl
where DesingerNamn = @input
If you need to use this data set in a further query, you could write something like
create procedure test (@input varchar(40))
select (a bunch of fields)
from (some set of tables)
where KatNamn in (
select KatNamn
from VIEW1tbl
where DesingerNamn = @input)
Does this work better?

Window crank operator
A home owner from Sarasota, FL says:
February 9, 2015
I purchased 39-194 but the off set on the terminal arm is in the wrong direction so it does not fit. I have attached photos of mine. Can you suggest a better match?
Dave Sr. from SWISCO responded:
March 4, 2015
Thank you again for your patience. We have received the sample of your operator and I see now what the problem is. It appears your operators had been altered at some point, because the link arm does not appear to match the rest of the body.
That said, I think I have a solution. Our 39-259 VE Andersen crank appears to match your dimensions and link arm in all respects except one: the bottom two holes in the "L" shaped leg. The 39-259 does not have the same hole configuration. However, I believe you can drill it out in the appropriate place. Take a look at it and let me know what you think of this solution.
A quick learner says:
March 5, 2015
Dave, I think I am fine with drilling a new hole, that is no problem. I just ordered 3 of the 39-359 awning cranks and was hoping that you could through my old crank in the box as well.
Thank you for all your help!!

Dear Lea: All I want to do in life is eat junk. My religious organization has a drawer filled with junk food and I can't seem to stop eating stuff from it. There are chocolates, chips, cookies, old cookies, christmas cookies, more cookies, and you name it. I just love eating from that drawer. How can I stop? –AM
Dear AM,
Many people find themselves in situations where it is difficult to avoid the temptation of eating junk foods. It is great that you are inspired to change how you eat in general or in this particular situation.
As you may have already guessed, poor eating can often be dealt with by changing behaviors as well as learning what food choices are healthy. Here are some suggestions for you:
- Make sure that when you arrive there you are not hungry. Have a healthy snack or meal prior to going to your class or event. Including a healthy protein in your snack or meal will keep you from feeling hungry. You may be able to eat less of these unhealthy foods if you are not hungry.
- Volunteer to do some of the shopping for your center or volunteer to help the person in charge of shopping so that you can ensure there will be healthier choices. See how other participants feel about having healthier foods. This may be encouraging!
- If you can rule out physical hunger, be brave and take a look at what may be triggering you to over-eat when you are in this specific situation. Ask yourself if emotions are causing you to eat more. Are you feeling any type of stress when you are there?
- Focus on the social aspect of your experience there and spend time talking with people rather than staying close to the food.
- Make yourself a cup of tea or another healthy beverage so you have something to be sipping on so you will slow down the eating aspect.
I hope some of these suggestions work for you. The healthiest snacks include fresh and dried fruit, veggies, hummus, whole grain and less processed carbs, crackers and cookies. You can get more good suggestions for healthy snack foods from the Tasteful Pantry website!

text: This is in continuation to the Post 640 Return journey was more fun to drive cause there was a little bit of scattered traffic. To be honest I donot like empty roads. Initially had to slow down cause I had taken a different route which was through the town and the roads at thier worst condition. Stopped for breakfast just before entering the highway. While on the highway, I was mostly doing 140kmph and many times at 160kmph. Once at 170kmph and there was a lot of wobbling. So had to restrict myself at 140 and 160kmph. After reaching Hyderabad, the traffic transition takes place again bringing reins on to my Punto. The final statistics were Total Distance covered (2 way) : 449.1 kms Time Travelled in return journey : 3 hrs 15 mins Total Time travelled (2way) : 6 hrs 05 mins Average Speed (2way) : 73 kmph Average fuel consumption : 14.9 kmpl Overall was very happy to have a long drive after almost 3 months. I will really miss my Punto as I am planned to leave onsite this weekend.
