My mother won't let go of me and it is driving me crazy.
I am 21 years old and was not even allowed to arrange a birthday party for myself – not that it would have been a big party, because I only have one friend. My younger brother has already left home to study, but my mother refused me that opportunity. Instead she expects me to stay home and do all the cooking and cleaning. My mom seems to be afraid of so many things and wants me to take care of her all the time.
I recently got a job, and my mother makes a scene every time I leave for work, but I refuse to give up the job. At the same time she expects me to use my money to pay the household bills, even though she has her own well-paid job.
I have decided to leave home and move into a small flat. I don't know how to tell my mother this without having a confrontation, because I don't know how she will treat my younger sister when I leave home. I love my mother, but Iwant to have my own life and make my own rules. I want to go out with friends and study and travel.
How do I get away from all this?

Lucky Red Casino introduces a royal gaming experience with brilliant opportunities from the best online software providers. The casino itself features an elegant theme that makes gaming easy with simplistic features and menu options where you'd expect it. Established by the Club World Casinos Group in 2009, Lucky Red Casino manages to deliver a modern experience with the latest functionality. Apart from a grand instant play platform, players are invited to take part from anywhere with mobile options. To ensure fairness and professionalism, the casino operates under a license from Curacao, which requires regular testing for fairness and security at complete random.
Lucky Red Casino Bonuses:
- 400% Online Slots Match Bonus
- 100% Other Casino Games Match Bonus
Lucky Red Welcome Bonus: Choose from 2 Excellent Welcome Bonuses
When you join Lucky Red Casino, you can either take part in a massive 400% slot bonus or choose from a smaller casino bonus that allows you to play other games as well. The fact that the casino includes multiple bonuses makes it much easier for everyone to take part and claim the rewards they really want. Sure, each of these bonuses include their own terms and conditions, but the casino has made it really easy to see what these consist of.
Of course, a 400% match bonus includes a huge amount of free cash, even when you make a small deposit. On top of it, high roller players get to claim up to NZ$4,000 with this first deposit bonus, which isn't available at just any online casinos in New Zealand, making this offer rather unique and highly valuable. To enable the bonus, you would need to make a deposit of at least NZ$35, which would already add up to NZ$140 in free cash. With such a big bonus, it might be worth taking full advantage and making a deposit of more than NZ$100, giving you at least NZ$400 in free cash for a total of $500 to play with. To activate this bonus, you need to use bonus code LUCKYRED400 when you make the first deposit.
The alternative bonus offers a 100% match that can be used to play casino games other than slots. Of course, you will still have the opportunity to play all your favourite slots and scratch cards, but with this bonus you simply have the option of playing other games as well. You won't be able to wager on craps, baccarat, sic bo, roulette or war, but games such as video poker and other table games are all available. The great thing about the smaller bonus is that the bonus value would be less, making it much easier to reach the wagering requirements.
The terms and conditions of the above-mentioned bonuses include game limitations and wagering requirements, which are all available in the promotions page. Each bonus requires wagering on the deposit value and your bonus amount, which requires you to play games equal to 30 times the value. You will find the game limitations are available in the casino terms and conditions, which includes 100% on slots, 40% on roulette, 25% on poker games, 10% on blackjack, baccarat, war, craps and more.

Will Trump Use a Cheaper Dollar to Boost U.S. Exports?
- Order Reprints
- Print Article
Meet the new boss, definitely not the same as the old boss. But will we get fooled again?
With apologies to the Who's Pete Townshend, Donald Trump served notice that change is coming to the White House at his inauguration Friday. And it can be summed up in two words: America first.
Every decision on trade, taxes, immigration, and foreign affairs will be made to benefit the U.S. and to protect the nation from "the ravages" of foreign competition, the new president vowed in his inaugural address. "Protection will lead to great prosperity and strength," he added.
Maybe "protection" isn't the same as "protectionism," but the differences seem hard to discern in this case. "We will follow two simple rules: Buy American and hire American," the new president emphasized.
More Election Coverage From Barron's
10 Things We've Learned About Donald Trump
Trump's Power to Alter Economy Has Its Limits
Already during the interregnum between Election Day and Inauguration Day, Trump cajoled auto companies to move or keep production stateside (while also criticizing pharmaceutical makers and defense contractors for charging what he deems too much). Until Friday, he had only the bully pulpit as a means to put America first. Now, after being sworn in as the 45th president, he actually has the power to further that aim.
Simpler and quicker than tariffs or tax changes would be to alter the terms of trade via the currency market. The dollar is "too strong," Trump flatly told The Wall Street Journal in an interview. While it marks an about-face from the "strong dollar" mantra chanted by U.S. administrations for more than two decades, since Bill Clinton's Treasury Secretary Robert Rubin, it fits with Trump's America-first credo.
It recalls a similar stance famously espoused by John Connally, Richard Nixon's Treasury secretary, who in 1971 declared to the rest of the world that the dollar was "our currency, but your problem." Nor have calls to lower the greenback been unique. During the Jimmy Carter administration, Treasury Secretary W. Michael Blumenthal similarly called for a cheaper buck to boost U.S. competitiveness and narrow the trade deficit.
Swings in the dollar—both sharply higher, as in the 1990s and during the past two years, and sharply lower, as occurred in the years following the financial crisis—are hugely disruptive to the rest of the world. Probably more so than for the U.S. economy, which is relatively closed, compared with those of other nations that are vitally dependent on foreign trade.
In 1967, the United Kingdom's prime minister, Harold Wilson, tried to convince Brits, when sterling was devalued, that the pound notes in their pockets were still worth the same—even though they purchased only $2.40, rather than the previous $2.80. For most U.S. consumers, whether the euro fetches $1.10 or $1.20 doesn't matter much; maybe if they go on vacation abroad, but not on their weekly trek to the supermarket.
But for U.S. businesses, from a major multinational corporation to a small importer of fine leather goods, the dollar's exchange rate is no small matter. And it's an easy target for Trump to talk (or tweet) down. That's quite unlike the matter of border taxation schemes, which he called "too complicated."
Trump once again insisted that the dollar's overvaluation was largely a result of China's deliberate undervaluation of its currency, the yuan. When the Journal pointed out that China's monetary authorities actually have been acting to boost the yuan, Trump responded that they were just trying to avoid angering the U.S. Whatever the motivation, Chinese authorities have clamped down on capital flight, after having spent approximately $1 trillion in foreign-exchange reserves to slow the yuan's decline—the opposite of manipulating its currency to gain a trade advantage.
To be sure, Steven Mnuchin, Trump's choice for Treasury secretary, walked back his likely future boss' implicit call for a cheaper dollar during his Senate confirmation hearing last week. That wasn't the only time Trump's cabinet choices voiced views consistent with more generally accepted opinions (although not necessarily congruent with those of the new president), extending to matters ranging from Russia to global warming.
But to make America first, Trump's initial plan is to debase the dollar. That would induce everyone to "buy American and hire American." As Greg Valliere, chief strategist of Horizon Investments, notes, the inaugural address was conspicuously lacking mentions of tax cuts or tax reform. Those were the main things the financial markets wanted to hear, and what they have rallied on since the election.
But it seems that actions on the tax front won't be coming until later this year. And that would be "later than the markets would prefer," he adds, even if their expectations were unrealistically optimistic.
TRUMP'S DESIRE FOR A WEAKER DOLLAR clashes with GOP plans for fiscal stimulus through tax cuts and infrastructure spending. Those actions would lead to higher growth in gross domestic product and inflation, both of which tend to push the buck higher, not lower.
That would increase the odds that the Federal Reserve would move forward with interest-rate increases. Based on the policy-setting Federal Open Market Committee's dot-plot graph of members' expectations for the federal-funds target range released last month, they look for three quarter-point hikes by the end of 2017.
For its part, the fed-funds futures market is pricing in just two quarter-point increases from the current 0.5%-to-0.75% target range, according to a Bloomberg analysis. The first is expected by June. Fed Chair Janet Yellen last week essentially reiterated the FOMC's view, saying it would be "prudent to adjust the stance of monetary policy gradually over time."
Trump's statement favoring a softer dollar initially pushed rates lower, since that implied a slower pace of Fed tightening. But after Yellen's comments, they reverted, with the benchmark Treasury 10-year note hovering just under 2.5%.
While the markets' attention is centered on the new administration, it would be a mistake to ignore the Fed. "If you merely watched Reagan in his early months and not the Fed, you would have been caught in a 25% bear market that didn't end until the fall of 1982," David Rosenberg, chief economist and strategist at Gluskin Sheff, points out.
"As with Reagan, the good stuff may end up awaiting the second half of his first term," he adds. "Anyone who has been in the markets long enough knows how important Fed liquidity is—it is the prime reason why the S&P 500 tripled under Obama's tenure.
"It is not Trump's policies that will influence the contours of the business cycle or market performance looking ahead, but the Fed's reaction function," Rosenberg continues. In other words, how will Yellen & Co. react to incoming data and the impact of policy moves on growth and inflation?
But more than the numbers, the Fed cannot help but feel the influence of the new administration. Last May, candidate Trump said he would most likely replace Yellen if he were elected, because she isn't a Republican.
By September, in a debate with Hillary Clinton, he charged that the Fed chair was "doing political things" by keeping rates low. "When they raise interest rates, you're going to see some bad things happen because they're not doing their job," he added.
That's because, he claimed, the economy was in a "big, fat bubble." He warned of a stock market slide when the Fed tightened. Whether he still believes that is uncertain. But further rate hikes, all else being equal, would tend to lift the greenback.
While Yellen's term ends in January 2018, there are currently two vacancies on the Fed's Board of Governors, which is supposed to consist of seven members, including her and Vice Chairman Stanley Fischer, whose term ends in June 2018. So, the White House could exert a lot of influence on Fed policy with personnel decisions in the next year or so.
But in what way? Many Trump supporters fault the Fed for holding interest rates too low for too long. On the other hand, higher rates could blunt the impact of future tax cuts and infrastructure spending, while boosting the dollar.
While rates remain historically low, some critics contend that the Fed may have tightened policy too much already.
Paul Kasriel, the former chief economist at Northern Trust who currently pens his Econtrarian blog as senior economic and investment advisor at Legacy Private Trust in Neenah, Wis., notes that the Fed has tightened since it ended its quantitative-easing program in 2015, with an outright contraction of the monetary base (reserves and currency) last year. Banks also slowed credit expansion markedly throughout 2016.
What Kasriel dubs "thin air" credit—the sum of what the Fed and commercial banks together can conjure up—correlates closely with the economy, with a lagged effect one quarter later. (Specifically, he's watching gross domestic purchases, which is GDP minus exports, plus imports. In other words, what domestic purchasers buy, regardless of origin.)
What "could stimulate thin-air credit growth would be a sharp increase in federal credit demand, resulting from tax cuts and/or discretionary spending increases," he continues, which is what the stock market is anticipating. All else being equal, that would mean higher interest rates. "It is not a question if significant federal tax cuts are coming in the next two years, but when and how the Fed will react to them," Kasriel concludes.
If the reaction is to lift the fed-funds rate, that not only could blunt any stimulus from the fiscal side, but also lift the dollar further. The outcome may not be what stock market bulls hope as the Dow Jones Industrial Average remains frustratingly short of the 20,000 mark.

Many Long Island homeowners have no idea when their water heater is about to kick the bucket. A little bit of knowledge goes a long way. It can save you the headache of going days without hot water or paying for costly repairs. Here are some indicators that your water heater may need to be replaced.
Your Water Heater Is Too Old
It is important to know the actual age of your home's water heater. To find the age of your unit, look for the serial number on the manufacturer's sticker on the upper portion of the water heater. The serial number contains the date that the water heater was manufactured. It will not look the way a date is normally written. Instead, the serial number will have a date code such as "F051052638". The letter corresponds with the month that the water heater was manufactured. In the example above, F represents the sixth letter in the alphabet, so the unit was made in the sixth month, June. Next, the first two digits of the serial number are 05, which represents the year, 2005. So this water heater was made in June 2005.
Each manufacturer has a similar date code, and they can vary. Check the manufacturer's website to learn more.Water heaters aren't made to last forever. Most models only have an eight to twelve year lifespan so if yours is approaching this range, it might be time to upgrade. As a general rule, if your water heater is more than ten years old, you should consider replacing it. If your water heater is in a spot that could damage your home in the event of a leak you should look into the logistical possibility of moving it. Today's water heaters are much more energy-efficient. By replacing your outdated water heater, you will see a drastic increase in savings each year.
Unusual Noise or Rumbling Coming From Your Water Heater
While it is normal to hear some sounds as the water heats, loud cracks and pops indicate an interaction between the heating elements inside the heater and the scale and mineral deposits built up on them. As a water heater gets older, soot can build up on the bottom of the tank. As this sediment is heated and reheated, it hardens over time. This often leads to banging and rumbling sounds coming from the water heater as it heats up. This is a sign that the water heater has reached the end of its life.
The sediment will eventually cause your water heater to run less efficiency. More electricity or gas will be needed to heat your home's water. The extra time spent heating the water can damage metal tank, causing small holes and cracks. If you start to hear unusual sounds coming from your water heater, be on the lookout for small leaks.
Another reason hot water heaters make noise is because the heating element may be burning out. If you have flushed out your tank and removed the sediment but are still hearing strange noises, it could be time to replace the heating element
Rust Coming Out of Your Faucets
Is rusty water coming out of your faucets? This can be a sign that your water heater is rusting on the inside and may begin to leak soon. It doesn't necessarily mean that your water heater is on its way out, but it is worth testing further. If you have galvanized piping, you may have rusty pipes. A good test to avoid replacing a functioning water heater is to drain a few five-gallon buckets of hot water out of the water heater. By the third bucket, if the water from your heater is still coming out rusty, then most likely the water heater, and not the piping, is at fault.
Water Heater Tank Leaks
If you notice moisture around your water, it is possible that you have a leak in the tank. Wipe the tank dry with a towel and come back to check on it the following day. If you see water on the floor again, it means your tank is leaking and needs to be replaced immediately.
Before replacing your water heater, your maintenance technician will check to make sure there are no other leaks coming from either the fittings or connections to the tank. They will also make sure that the temperature/pressure overflow pipe is not leaking. If all of the connections and fittings are dry, it may be time to replace the water heater.

If you are thinking about undergoing hair transplant surgery, there are many factors you should consider before making a decision. Hair transplants can provide transformative results but are a lifelong commitment and not everyone is a good candidate for them. If you are experiencing hair loss, read on to determine if hair transplants are the right move for you to restore your thinning hair.
Realistic Expectations Are Important
An ideal candidate for hair transplants should have realistic expectations about results and the future of their hair loss. Hair transplants can dramatically restore thinning hair but will not stop hair loss or even slow it down. In order to make a difference in future hair loss, hair transplant patients should be prepared to continually use medication to maintain their hair. Future treatments and even hair transplants may be necessary to maintain results going forward. Patients should understand that hair transplants are not a cure for hair loss and other methods need to be pursued to prevent future hair loss.
Candidates Should Have Stabilized Hair Loss
Hair loss tends to be associated with middle-aged men; however, thinning hair can be evident much earlier for some people. If you are experiencing hair loss at an early age, you may be tempted to pursue hair transplants right away due to the heightened social stigma. However, because final balding patterns typically are not evident until after the age of 25, receiving hair transplants too early on could result in an unnatural appearance. Transplanted hair harvested from donor sites along the back and sides of the scalp tend to be affected by natural hair loss and will remain even as you continue to lose hair, potentially creating an undesirable hair pattern.
In addition to stabilized hair loss, hair transplant patients should have a viable amount of donor hair along the back and sides of the scalp to provide an adequate amount of healthy follicles for harvesting.
Hair Transplants Should Be a Last Resort
Candidates interested in hair transplants will ideally have explored other options before deciding on receiving hair transplant surgery. Medicated products including Propecia and Rogaine are capable of slowing down hair loss or encouraging new hair growth. These medications will need to be used continuously for sustained results and patients should be prepared to make lasting commitments to the health of their hair before considering hair transplants.
Even after undergoing hair transplant surgery, the use of Propecia and Rogaine is highly recommended to slow hair loss and maintain results. Dr. Lupanzula recommends the use of medication to all of his patients to avoid the need for additional hair transplants in the future as the inevitability of continued hair loss affects the results of hair transplant surgery. If patients are not prepared to use hair loss medications prior to undergoing hair transplants, they are likely not prepared for the continuous attention needed to retain their new hair.
If you have questions about hair loss or are wondering if you are a good candidate for hair transplant surgery, call Medikemos Hair Transplantation Clinic today at 44 20 7129 1227 to schedule a consultation with Dr. Lupanzula.

In the past at this veritable almanac of bogan news and analysis, we have repeatedly touched on the fact that the bogan is intent on losing weight and/or getting buff. Its obsession with the outward appearance of health is one of the overarching themes of boganity, driven, in part, by the fact that bogans see celebrities who also portray themselves as the very embodiment of well-being. The bogan will briefly hit the gym, attend Zumba classes, engage in myriad fad diets, then buy a Wii Fit, before doing its back in and admiring plus-sized models while putting away a half dozen max-glazed Krispy Kremes.
What we have only scratched the surface of, however, is the bogan's motives for doing these things. What has been uncovered after months of diligent research is that the bogan's love of the appearance of health has a pronounced seasonal factor that has previously gone unidentified. Come September, the bogan stands, mournfully staring at the mirror, clutching the folds of its ready-for-winter-famine belly that has formed since March. While this is normal behaviour for the femme bogue, the male bogan will only conduct this ritual in its private, quiet introspective moments, which tend to occur with the same frequency as the vernal equinox.
In that moment, as the weather warms, the bogan needs to get ripped for summer. It can see that it's what the celebrities do, after they carefully time their pregnancies to avoid the dreaded beach-bulge. As the bogan stares at itself in its brightly lit bathroom, under heat lamps, it begins to envision its future; strutting the sands all weekend, bronzed a deep natural brown, hair sun kissed with natural blonde highlights, rippling musculature on display for all to see and marvel at. But before this happens, the bogan needs to find a way to stack on significant amounts of muscle, whilst reducing its body fat by ten to fifteen percentage points. In three weeks or less.
The average Hollywood actor, when asked to transition from a corpulent Mafia boss to a buff CIA agent in only three weeks, would verbally abuse their agent for making such a ridiculous suggestion, and then throw a phone at the concierge. And rightfully so. But the bogan believes its abilities are so phenomenal, and its strength of resolve so strong, that it can smash through the wall of human limitations that elite athletes have been chipping away at for years. It should come as no surprise when the bogan hits precisely that wall, one and a half to two days into its new health kick.
After leaving no stone unturned in briefly attempting all the latest fad exercise and diet regimes, and losing patience waiting for the summer sun to emerge, what actually emerges on the first beach day only roughly approximates the bogan's earlier vision: the bogan is spotted waddling across the sand, skin a deep fluorescent orange, hair bleached a retina-scorching white, flanks jiggling hypnotically for all to see.

My Review:
I loved this book, I loved the whole idea of a summer romance in Italy just jumping on a plane, away from all of life's responsibilities and into the bosom of a family to look after me. Only with Prosecco and Promises, Mia isn't running away, she has been sent away by her father to await his death and the family she's staying with are her Mum's relations whom she only remembers because the last time she saw them was when her Mum sadly died. So not quite the idyllic summer holiday you first think of. Mia at first hates her father for sending her away to somewhere with bad memories but as time goes on, the love for her family grows, Mia starts to feel comforted by them and understand why her father didn't want her around while he was dying. Oh and she also has a romance with Salvatore, the last guy she ever thought of being involved with but you just know they're going to end up together!
I just loved how well this was written, the descriptions of Ischia so vivid it felt like I was there. It helped that A.L. Michael has travelled to Italy 6 times, she was able to bring it to life for me and I definitely felt like I had travelled along with Mia to this remote Italian island. I love how books can transport you to a different place without having to leave the sofa. This is one of those books and if you have ever wanted to visit then I can recommend starting with A.L. Michael's book. I can highly recommend Prosecco and Promises and I give it 5/5!
Author Q&A:
Q1: Hello there, nice to have you here on SunshineSarahxo! Please could you introduce yourself and tell us a little bit about your book:
I'm Andi (A L Michael) and I've been writing for a while. Prosecco and Promises is my 10th book, and it's about a girl called Mia, and how she's been sent away by her Dad, who is at the end of a struggle with cancer and doesn't want her to be there. He sends her to the Italian island of Ischia to bond with her late mother's family. She doesn't want to, but she goes, and spends time figuring out what her life will look like when she returns, and learns a lot along the way.
Q2: At what point did you decide to write books and share them with the world??
I've been writing since I was a kid. It was my 'thing'. It was the one thing I was better at than anyone, and to be honest, it's the one thing I love more than anything. I knew I wanted to write books, but I never assumed anyone would want to read them. But that's the point! And now with 10 books down, sharing books with readers feels like this relationship, where they review and you're sort of creating the story together.
Q3: How would you describe your writing style? Has it changed over time at all?
I'd say my style is definitely mine, but it has grown up a bit over the years. It's sassy, and sarcastic and I swear a fair bit, but I can write some vulnerable moments too. I always write the way I wish I could speak - confidently and quick-thinking, always with a smart retort.
Q4: Was there anyone in particular who inspired you? Which authors do you emulate?
I was thinking about this the other day, because as a kid I read absolutely anything anyone would give me. I didn't discriminate, didn't differentiate between genres, wasn't snobbish at all. I grew up reading Jane Austen, and then disappeared into teen books and out through beat writers. I'm not necessarily sure I emulate anyone. I really admire the styles of Mhairi Mcfarlane and Sarra Manning, as well as Kirsty Greenwood and Jenny Crusie. I like female characters who are happy to kick arse, who even if they're down, or quiet or failing, they don't give up.
Q5: Do you have any other books in the pipeline which you are excited about?!
Always! There's always 3 or 4 new ideas waiting to be written. I'm working on two books right now. One is the third in The Martini Club series, which is called Martinis and Memories and is out in the summer. For those who have read Cocktails and Dreams or Prosecco and Promises, it's Bel's story, the owner of the burlesque club. She fascinates me and I'm eager to tell her story. The second is a book for my agent which is a bit hush hush right now but I am super excited about it and can't wait to get back to it.
Q6: Has your writing helped you in other areas of life?!
Absolutely! So in the most practical way, I'm a content writer for a company, so I'm actively spending my days researching, writing articles, writing for different types of publications, altering voice and tone, all the stuff I do as an author. On a personal level I believe that writing has therapeutic benefits, and so I went to do an MSc in that. I finished it at the end of last year, and did a research project on how writing can be used in recovery from eating disorders. I can honestly say I've spoken to so many people who say writing has saved their lives, and I believe it. Writing is so many things, it's expression and fun and sharing and pretending and playing and scribbling furiously into diaries that keep secrets. Writing is a bit magic, and it's changed my life.
Q7: I absolutely loved 'Prosecco and Promises' it took me away on an Italian holiday and although Mia was there to get over her mother's death and await her father's, I couldn't help but get swept away by the romance of it all. Was that the intention when writing the book or did the characters have other ideas?
I guess I knew Mia's situation wasn't particularly romantic, and Mia herself is not a romance sort of girl. She's very practical, she wants to be in control. The setting was as much about giving her a place to heal and regroup as her family members and the love story were. Italy to me is about comfort and beauty and people, and when you're in a beautiful place all alone, it's a very strange feeling.
Q8: I must admit I teared up near the end when Mia went home for her father's funeral but what I loved about it was how thankful Mia was to him for the memories he gave her. Did you have any personal memories which helped you write this portion of the book?
I think anyone who's lost someone can relate to this, whether it's through a long drawn out illness or not. I know I'm getting to an age where people's parents are starting to get sick, and everyone's suddenly wondering what they're meant to do. It's hard to know how to be an adult without your role models there. A lot of these ideas are often 'what ifs' - what would I do if this happened? What would I do if this was me? So some of the emotion behind the writing is memories, but some of it's simple fear and wondering.
Q9: How did you come up with the name for the book? Did it come before you started writing or is it something which only really develops once the writing has begun?
Honestly, I had nothing to do with the title, my lovely publishers came up with it, and as I knew it was already going to be set in Italy, and Mia made a promise to her father, it made complete and perfect sense.
Q10: Is there going to be another Prosecco and Promises book where we follow Mia and Salvatore as they set up life together on the gorgeous island of Ischia?
Unfortunately not - I feel like they deserve a bit of time off on their own to have their adventures, but they're definitely be popping up in Martinis and Memories, back in London.
Bonus Question: Have you ever visited Italy and if so what was your favourite part? Where did the inspiration come from for the setting of the book?
I have visited Italy 6 times now. The first was the summer before university, when I inter-railed with two friends and we visited 5 cities. The most recent was July 2017 whilst I was finishing writing Prosecco and Promises. I love Italy, it feels like home. I love movies about Italy, I was trying to learn Italian. I'm Greek, and I see a lot of the similarities in culture - having this big loving family who want to be involved in your life and know all about everything. And eating all the time. I visited Naples and Ischia to make sure the ideas I had about the setting were correct, and I did have to make some changes to specific things to match. On the day I visited Ischia sadly it was the heaviest rain I have ever experienced, so we missed out on a lot (but it was still beautiful!) but my favourite city is Florence, I've been there three times and I could just keep going back.
Have you heard of Prosecco and Promises before?! What do you think?
Love, Sarah

During the first quarter of 2010 it was obvious that the biggest names in affiliate networks are flirting with brand names. And although these networks are criticizing the Google slap and it's impact on the affiliate marketing industry, they are doing the same.
Small affiliate marketers are now having their accounts terminated or suspended for low volume. This means that small affiliates are now facing the challenge of either growing into big boys or losing their business. This challenge is time sensitive. And affiliate marketers who are just starting and those who lost their Adword accounts are supposed to find an efficient way to grow their business according to a plan.
The picture is not different on the other side of the coin. Small advertisers are now facing the challenge of being crashed by the big brand names. Some networks, like hydra, is now moving on this new trend: brand names. If you don't have a well known brand name your offers are facing the threat of elimination.
Which brings us to the point of this article. Branding is the key to succeed in 2010. And it works for both advertisers and affiliates.
What I expect to see during the rest of 2010 is as follows:
1. Advertisers will be spending more on branding their names. This will open the door for new positions in those small companies that will focus only on media placement and getting their name in front of as many people as they can, for as long as they can. Fly-by-night businesses will be having hard time getting their offers accepted to rotate on big affiliate networks, and as a result scams artists will be very busy finding a way around the new situation.
2. Affiliate marketers will also try to brand their names, or turn their small home "commission-based-sales" businesses into registered marketing companies with their own trademarks. This will put the marketers in a position that they will have to be picky on what to promote in order to maintain a good reputation for their trademarks.
3. The very limited liability of affilaite marketers will be a history due to the new FTC regulations, and the branding trend they have to take in order to succeed.
4. The small affiliate networks that deal with small advertisers will have a lot of work to do due to the increasing demand from the small advertisers who can not, or are not willing to, brand themselves, and due to the termination/suspension of low-volume affiliate marketers by the big networks. It's pretty obvious that the quality of offers on these networks will be questionable and this will push their affiliates to work hard on protecting their anonymity.
As have been seen before in the offline world, small business will shrink, or be forced to the back alley, while big brands will be expanding. Good for the consumer, good for the super affiliates, good for the affiliate networks either way, and bad for the scam artists. New and low-volume affiliate marketers have to take it seriously from now on.

As the holidays approach and the end of the year draws near, the IRS has again released its list of tips for giving to charity. Of course, these rules apply to obtaining a legitimate tax-deduction for the donation. If that is not your goal, then give away and don't bother with the IRS tips. The tips are generally the same each year, and include the rules for deducting contributions of clothing and household items (the item must be in good used condition, and the value is fair market value of the item in used condition) and for deducting monetary contributions (must have a written record of the contribution, and an acknowledgement from the charity if it was $250 or more).
The list also includes reminders, such as:
Finally, it is always good to confirm whether the entity you are contributing to is eligible to receive tax-deductible donations. Just because an entity is a "non-profit" or calls themselves "tax-exempt" does not mean donations are tax-deductible. Check for yourself on the IRS Select Check online database to determine if your donation can be deducted for tax purposes.

Released on Klanggalerie Records this is a rather special CC project.
The above artists have used our "To The Night Sky" album as source material to create new and unique pieces of music. Some have used just one song and its separated instrumental and vocal tracks, others have chosen several songs, mixing and splicing them together.
The base material got ripped apart and torn to pieces, new sounds were added, textures rearranged; the collaborators messed with the fabric of the music.
The task was to make the songs sound very different to the original versions, the artists were asked to make them their "own", and they have.
This is very dark, very difficult, very heavy meNtal stuff.
Bleak and esoteric, doom and drone, black and extreme, yet also freaked out and beautiful.
This is not just a "remix" album, this is alchemy.

Then I moved to a mountain village in Mexico where I'm soon to complete twelve years. Yesterday I was trying to recall what it was I knew and envisioned when I decided it was the place where I could and would to live in accordance with my values. The first image that came to mind were the clothes drying on the flat roofs of the houses I viewed from the roof of the house where I was staying. I also vaguely remembered some ideas about living slower with less technology. But clothes drying on the line was concrete: Here I could wash my clothes by hand and hang them outside to dry. "But," I argued with myself, "I could have created a life in which I hand-washed my clothes in the States as well. What is special about doing it here?" Somehow being part of a place where this is how life is normally lived (versus an anomoly) is important to me. It gives me a sense of belonging; that although a foreigner and stranger to this place and culture, I fit here. We fit together
I still love washing my clothes by hand and hanging them on the line. It remains a part of my lifestyle, a value, and a pleasure. But here's the irony: I'm not very good at it. And even though I'm resigned to the belief that I'm not good (tidy) enough for white and so rarely dress in it, avoidance has not made me immune to accruing stains when I do wear it.
And that's with white clothes.
Today even worse news: I have a black top, only one. Sometimes black feels good to wear: I feel strong, invisible, untouchable in it. Citified and tough. This morning I decided to wear it. As I was running out the door to catch the combi (the local public transporation,) my peripheral vision caught a glimpse of something not expected: a row of little white spots on the chest, next to the buttons. Had I dribbled bleach on myself unknowingly? I threw off the top, spit on the white dots and rubbed. Would they darken with the moisture and dissipate with the friction? No time to wait and see or I'd miss my ride. I quickly ran upstairs, slipped a different shirt over my head and left.
When I returned several hours later I couragously approached what I'd left strewn on the bannister. I rinsed the area with water and rubbed gently. It seemed like it looked better now. Maybe I was off the hook this time and had been permitted a simple solution. I went outside and commenced with the pinning of the fabric to the line. Then I saw it: the stain was still there. And another one below it, rendering the fabric there slightly stiff and gray. Careful inspection revealed another dried and discolored area on the neck seam. I hung my head. "There's no escaping stains," I thought. Even with black cloth they are unavoidable.
The metaphor didn't escape me either:
There is light. There is darkness. And there is no avoiding the messiness and work of life.

Triangle Power
I have been working on switching the kids room around. I'm excited about it, but I haven't been able to spend too much time working on them because of everything else that is going on in life. I haven't finished painting yet, but I was anxious to put up some decorations anyway. Since I like to decorate on the ol' budget I do something I call "Robin Hood Decorating" I rob decorations from the rich rooms and give them to the poor rooms. Since I robbed a star from my front room to give to Liv Cat's room I had to shuffle around decor. I had decided to go black and white on a shelf and I love the difference the triangle makes. Here is my first shot.. and then here is with the completed triangle... I would probably have preferred to use white candles but I don't have any, so this will work! I'm a big fan of using what you've got!! Most everything in this display are things that sweet Mom-in-law gave to me. I made the gratitude sign so this decor costs me about Free-ninety-nine!! Love that!

AG Coakley Backs Patrick's Handling Of DCF
Attorney General Martha Coakley is defending Gov. Deval Patrick's decision not to fire the head of the state's embattled Department of Children and Families, following the disappearance of a 5-year-old boy now feared dead.
The Democratic candidate for governor said Tuesday that Patrick, also a Democrat, was right for first asking for an independent audit.
Patrick, who is not seeking re-election, has backed DCF Commissioner Olga Roche and enlisted the Child Welfare League of America to conduct a review of the agency.
"You need someone at the helm and she has experience. And unless you have someone who's ready to come in and turn this agency around, I'm not sure that's the immediate solution," Coakley said when asked if Roche should be removed. "I think the governor's doing what he needs to do in terms of this audit."
The department has been under scrutiny since social workers lost track of the boy, Jeremiah Oliver. The child went missing in September but police didn't learn of his disappearance until December.
Three department employees - a social worker, a supervisor and an area manager - were fired after an internal investigation found the social worker hadn't made regular visits to Jeremiah's family in Fitchburg.
Republican candidate for governor Charlie Baker called Monday for Roche's resignation.
"The commissioner should step down, and we should find someone who can go into that job and put fresh eyes on it and do the kind of top-to-bottom review, do the kind of basic work around protecting and keeping kids safe," Baker said in an interview with The Associated Press.
Patrick has continued to back Roche, saying she was doing her job well under difficult circumstances.
"The work of DCF involves the toughest children in the toughest circumstances," Patrick said Monday.
Coakley also said that the review of the agency should be done first. She said any time a high-profile mistake is made or a case garners attention, the urge is to say "let's replace that person."
"No one does that. The private sector doesn't do that. The public sector doesn't do that," she said. "Accountability's important, but let's do what makes sense to keep kids safe."
Coakley also responded to Baker's call that she stop fighting a 2010 lawsuit filed by Children's Rights, a New York-based child advocacy group that accused the state of violating the constitutional rights of thousands of children in the state's foster care system by placing them in unstable and sometimes dangerous situations.
A federal judge ruled last fall in favor of the state, but Children's Rights is appealing.
Baker said Coakley should advise the Patrick administration to settle the lawsuit and fix the problems.
Coakley defended her handling of the case.
"We represented the agency, which is our job, based upon facts which we believed was a fair representation. The judge dismissed that lawsuit and said on the law and the facts they did not have a case," she said.
Coakley also said she doesn't believe there's any conflict between her office's handling of that case and what she's said as a candidate calling for changes at the family welfare agency.
Coakley has proposed creating a child protection division within DCF to investigate allegations of child abuse and neglect with a sole focus on the safety of the children.

|gen_server timeout
|Fri, 22 Oct 2010 13:36:09 GMT
*This message has been posted to users list but get no responses. Hope here I can get some feedback and solve our critical problem.* Hi, all! We at Yandex create the new project and use CouchDB as our primary storage. We live in the python universe so use python as client-code language and for view-server. There is number of ready python libraries for CouchDB and we have chosen -- couchdb-python (http://code.google.com/p/couchdb-python/). CouchDB is hosted on Ubuntu 10.04 boxes (64bit; 16 Cores; 23GB RAM) with master + 2 slaves setup. And databases from number of megabytes to some gigabytes in size. We faced some strange CouchDB behavior which is related to our view-server and its integration with storage (I think). We get `timeout` errors from the storage. This errors appear even when trying to issue a replication, getting database information (/db/_info) or querying views itself. Here is some logs with error messages -- http://dpaste.com/hold/258268/ . View-server works fine and has no error messages. But, we've noticed that it is getting some strange `reduce` requests with empty arguments. Views are very simple and cannot process input so long. Our local.ini has `os_process_tmeout` preset with 6000000 (six million milliseconds) and it doesn't help. It seams that this timeout doesn't event count and response with `timeout` error returns in some seconds (over 5 I think). The same issue we've encountered earlier with Ubuntu 8.04 (Hardy) and previous version (pre 1.0) of CouchDB. What do you think about that? Where is our mistake or misconfiguration? Thanks! --- Alexander Koshelev

THE RULES: All entries must be posted in the comments of this post by 9 p.m. Pacific time on Sunday.
THE PRIZE: To celebrate the paperback release of Joanna Philbin's book The Daughters Join the Party, we are giving away three AUTOGRAPHED copies of said book. You will love it! What is it about? Per Amazon: "Emma has never fit into the sweater-set-wearing world of her political family, opting for purple hair and Chuck Taylors to keep herself out of countless photo ops, but when she accidentally lets her father's presidential plans slip on national television, Emma finds herself thrown into the spotlight. Facing pressure to be the perfect First Daughter-in-training, Emma must learn to speak up for herself and for what she believes in. Thankfully, she has her new friends and fellow daughters – Lizzie, Carina, and Hudson – to help her along the way."

Inspired by Amaz0n account address book page, I decided to give it a try with my ZC store account address book. It worked out grate. This is a much more clean updated page and changing default address is a one click event. I also redid all my account pages, but this was the most requested part.
All addresses are contained in fieldsets with links to edit, delete and make primary within each container. The add address container with just the add button lets the user know they have space for more. Once all addresses are full, the add box is not displayed.
Containers stack when the screen width changes making it responsive all on its own. No need for additional css or scripting.

Xbox Madness and the IGDA wants YOU!Dec 27, 2006

Microsoft's Xbox is going crazy with their big launch in Japan, a new controller and Jedi Knights are coming soon! Here's what's going down...
The Xbox hit Japan on February 22, 2002 with 250,000 consoles. 125,000 of them were gone within two weeks. Then people found a problem. The Japanese Xbox could scratch your discs! It only affected a few systems and it only scratched the edges but it still sucked. Thousands of Xboxs were shipped back to Big Bill for repairs.
That's bad news for Japanese gamers. But there is some good news - if you're a gamer with itty-bitty hands. The gigantic Xbox controller is getting a lil bro to hang with. The Controller S is designed for people with smaller hands and it'll be out on April 30, 2002 for $39.99 US ($60 Cdn.)
If that's not enough...
Lucasarts has given Microsoft the big thumbs up to make Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic to the Xbox. This is a hot game from a bunch of Canadian game brainiacs at a company called Bioware. They're a wicked company with a serious rep for good games.
The last bit of news is from the IGDA - International Game Developers Association. They want YOU to make a living creating games. Sweet! They're going to schools and letting everyone know how to get into the biz, make games and get your share of the $9 billion dollars people spend on games in the USA alone. Check out their Breaking In site for more.
