Low Testosterone- Andropause
By the time men are between the ages of 40 and 55, they can experience a phenomenon similar to the female menopause, called andropause.
As with women, andropause in males begins at a time when life often offers some of its greatest rewards. But unlike women, men do not have a clear-cut signpost such as the cessation of menstruation to mark this transition.
Andropausal body changes occur very gradually in men and may be accompanied by changes in attitudes and moods, fatigue, a loss of energy, sex drive and physical agility.
Male pattern baldness (Androgenic alopecia )
Male pattern baldness is not a disease since the tendency to lose hair is genetically predetermined. A proper diagnosis is important because there are other types of hair loss as well. Alopecia is categorized as either scarring or non-scarring. Scarring forms of alopecia include types such as androgenic, areata, and secondary syphilis. Alopecia areata is characterized by sudden hair loss and is thought to be caused by an autoimmune disorder. Scarring types include those associated with inflammatory and autoimmune conditions and severe infections.
Platelet rich plasma has been showing promise in helping to nourish the scalp when caught early.
Male infertility can be caused by low or no sperm production as well as erectile dysfunction, and many other factors. A correct diagnosis is absolutely critical if a successful outcome is to be achieved. Conventional semen analysis may not be enough because it is not very accurate. In our office we include an evaluation for hormone problems such as hypothyroidism, hyperthyroidism, diabetes, etc. Other causes must also be excluded including the use of drugs that cause infertility, infection, and a number of other conditions. History of exposure to toxic chemicals, heavy metals, radiation, use of alcohol, tobacco, cannabis, and caffeine would also need to be looked at.
Causes of Infertility
Naturopathic Treatments
Elevated levels of the heavy metals lead and cadmium are of the most concern. We like to test for these metals and removal them. Numerous studies support the association with alcohol, caffeine and tobacco use and infertility/impotence. These substances must be avoided while trying to become fertile again.
The following are some supplements used in naturally treating infertility:
Erectile Dysfunction (ED)
Most of the time Low T is to blame for ED so that is the place to begin.
According to a report in the February 11th, 2002 issue the Archives of Internal Medicine, chronic work and marital stressors increase the risk of death from all causes and cardiovascular disease in men. Over a 16-year period, 12,336 men with work stress, and 10,904 men with marital stress were studied. There was an positive association between high work stress, marriage problems and risk of dying early. Men with at least three work stressors had 1.26 times the chance of dying, compared with those reporting no work stress. Men who divorced during the trial had 1.37 times the chance of dying, compared with those who remained married.
Diseases strongly linked to stress include:
How stressed are you?
Like an athlete who is over-training, typical symptoms of over-stressing include insomnia, depression, fatigue, headache, upset stomach, digestive disturbances, and irritability. Some deal with this by using drugs, overeating, watching excessive television, having emotional outbursts, feeling helpless, or overspending. The best way to find out if you are overstressing is to have a complete workup, including an adrenal stress profile.
Naturopathic Stress Treatments
How an individual handles stress plays a major role in determining their level of health. For years researchers have been looking at the association between stress and heart disease, including the beneficial effects of relaxation therapies. Chronic diseases are usually caused by an inability of a person's body to maintain optimal balance. Stress profoundly affects the delicate balance primarily through altering your body's output of hormones, central nervous system, and immune system; although other systems are affected as well.
According to Hans Selye (the father of modern stress research), stress alone should not be viewed negatively. It is not the stressor that determines the response; instead it is the individual's reaction which triggers the response. This internal reaction is highly individual. One person's stress may be another person's medicine.
While eliminating excess stress might be optimal, usually is is not practical (we all have to work and live). Our goal is to help you develop an appropriate response to stress by "preparing you body to take it."
Before any herbs or supplements can be recommended for stress reduction, it is very important to have a physical examination and some tests done. Treatment will take into consideration blood levels of stress hormones, blood pressure, lifestyle, work and family situation, family history, and many more factors. It is not appropriate, for example, to start taking Panax ginseng when you feel stressed, because this could actually make things worse by raising blood pressure and stress hormones.
Get a comprehensive stress evaluation. This may include a complete
history, physical exam and laboratory or functional tests depending on
the case. Dr. Bronner's treatments will vary depending on your
situation, and can include relaxation training, dietary modification,
natural medicines, nutrition, and eliminating food allergies or

It was all about who could dye their hair the darkest shade of black, who had the thickest eyeliner and who had the biggest problems. The emo scene run by bands such as, Taking Back Sunday, Story of the Year, My Chemical Romance and of course Fall Out Boy.
Sitting at the Hard Rock Cafe in Hong Kong, eating a giant burger and sipping a sweet cocktail I noticed a Fall Out Boy music video come on the screen. My friend's eyes widened, "Fall Out Boy!!! Wow! I loved them." I turned around to see the music video for, "Thanks for the Memories".
Looking at the video I started to get slightly emotional, the video was then followed by a Linkin Park video which just made things worse. I said to my friend, "We were born at the wrong time! We used to love this music and wanted to make this music. But it's irrelevant now, everybody is so quick to say rock is dead."
Fair enough emo/alternative are subgenres of actual rock'n'roll but the same still applies. The bands themselves obviously seem to know this too. I wonder though if they care, or they just simply want to evolve because they are growing as people?
One thing everybody has always agreed upon is that Madonna is the queen of evolution, with every album she looks like a new person and has a new theme to her work. Be the music bad or good you can't deny that she knows how to reinvent herself again and again, and people praise her for this.
However, when a band tries to do this they get crucified. I'll never forget when My Chemical Romance's, "Danger Days" came out. It was bright and high energy and full of color, it was an exciting ride through the desert. What do you suppose the fans said? "What is this? We want The Black Parade 2.0". The lead singer Gerard Way said that the band had been through their dark times and had seen the light. They had grown as people and gotten over their issues and wanted to celebrate by having a colorful album. The fans, however, hadn't quite caught up to where the band was.
So, where is this all going? Well, Fall Out Boy released a new song on the 27th of April from their upcoming album, "Mania" which will be released in September.
The song is called, "Young and Menace". All the publicity surrounding this song focuses on the bassist and co-founder Pete Wentz struggle with manic depression. This song is all about not fitting in for whatever reason and trying to find your place in the world. Many songs have had this theme and this still keeps Fall Out Boy in the Emo category.
People are calling it the most, "Experimental" Fall Out Boy single. When it starts you feel like you could be listening to a Deadmau5 track. Patrick Stump's vocals are really great, he starts out very relaxed and then just builds drastically. He is a fantastic singer everybody has always agreed with that. The track goes in a complete EDM / Dubstep direction, but you can still hear the rock guitar and drums. Personally, I really do like the track but it is getting so much hate online. There are a wealth of YouTube videos popping up every 5 minutes of emo kids (Yes they still exist…I have no clue where) ranting about just how bad this track is.
I found the video to be rather emotional and I wouldn't watch it a second time just because it is really sad. The track itself though, I give props to Fall Out Boy for embracing what is popular and moving ahead with the times. Online, kids are calling it a sellout and are very unhappy with it. But maybe they are because they aren't ready for Fall Out Boy to move on and become something new. They are still emotionally stuck or dependent on what Fall Out Boy used to be?
The song is worth a listen and if you like it or not it's still cool to see musicians not being stuck or arrogant about the style they want to do. They are willing to grow and try new things, I would say that is a proper musician. On the other side of the spectrum though, yes maybe they did this to make money…but can you blame them? Everybody has got to eat!

Baseball Card Books
Months ago my Mom sent me a great selection of baseball cards collected by my Dad as a kiddo (she sent me cards that were in poor condition and of little value to collectors). Her idea: turn them into books.
After a bit of experimentation, I discovered that some of the cards could be split in two. I adhered the pieces to book board to form the front and back covers. An old white purse gave up its life to provide leather for the straps. Red thread sewn to the split straps came the closest to resembling a baseball stitch. I love the wonderful colors and imperfections of the cards; and they bring back good memories of my Dad.
A selection of baseball card books is currently available in my Etsy shop.

Hello People,
We FSFTN at Viluppuram has been carrying over a set of activities for students in and around Viluppuram. Viluppuram has been one of the places where we have started GLUG(Viluppuram GLUG) a long time ago and be able to maintain it effectively.
In recent times, volunteers at FSFTN are working on this activity and we have got a School near Viluppuram as a common meeting place. We have been struggling a lot for a venue around there. So it is a good place to resume our activities over there.
Venue - https://osm.org/go/y4DVxGhbl
The activities have been going on for a period of 2 to 3 months and we are able to bring up reasonable amount of interested students. Our recent activity is regarding OpenStreetMaps and we would like to go ahead with Wikipedia.
Currently from FSFTN, Devakumar and Mugunthan have been working over there with the students. We also need to loook over certain things which I would like to mention here.
We need to start our CCC activity in that Government School which I personally feel has an ideal scenario
We need a team to follow up the GLUG activities over there.
We need list of community tasks and projects to engage the students with
We need to come up with an idea (Technical Contribution from FSFTN) to maintain the relationship with the school
In the end, the main aim of this post is to notify the interested peoples about this so that they can engaged and start collaborating with the community and be a part of it. So, whoever interested can come with feasible dates and ideas so that they can be utilized accordingly.
Thank you

14 things to ask your biomass boiler installer
Posted by Jon Edge on 3 November 2010 at 9:20 am
Biomass is still pretty new to a lot of people in the UK. However, it is a tried and tested technology, used successfully for many years in other countries. Biomass boilers are a modern and very low carbon alternative to fossil fuels, especially oil or LPG and will give you as much heat and hot water as you want, so long as the right system is designed to meet your needs.
1.The first things to ask is whether they are MCS certified installers with MCS approved products (under 45kW outputs currently and probably higher once confirmed) as this will mean you can claim the Renewable Heat Incentive (RHI) when it launches in June 2011 (NB: final details are not yet confirmed).
2. Which fuel source works best for you? Log, chip or pellet? This can be a tricky one to decide but your installer should talk through everything and give you all the variables which will then show the best product for you. There is a best fit depending on a number of factors, such as size and if you have your own wood supply or access to wood.
3. Do you want the full automation of pellet (but have to buy in pellets), or the cheap and available fuel of logs but have to stoke them (only once a day for electronically managed boilers) or if the size demands it the automation and low cost fuel (but higher capital cost) of chip
4. How much space do you need for fuel storage? Wood chip needs the largest storage space next to the boiler room, pellet has the highest energy density per volume and vacuum fed pellet boilers can be about 20 metres away from the wood store. Logs need cover to be seasoned, but don't need to be next to the boiler. Ideally for chip or pellet you would minimise deliveries to only one or two a year.
5. What boiler size/output will I need? The installer should do heat load calculations on your site and this determines the size of the boiler. It is important to know how close the boiler size is to the heat load and to ensure it is not under- or over-sized. Under-sized boilers will have to work too hard and may not give enough heat, and over-sized boilers will cost more than is necessary and not run at full efficiency (short cycling).
6. Is it a computer controlled boiler? With modern and computer controlled boilers there are sensors and clever things going on to regulate and control your heating. Weather compensation will take indoor and outdoor temperature readings and alter the temperature in your heating and hot water as a result. Also if you have solar thermal too (a great idea with biomass) then a sensor in the tank ensures solar hot water is used before the boiler fires again, making the most efficient use of the energy.
7. Do I need a buffer/ accumulator tank? Buffer tanks are large and highly insulated water tanks that act as a heat store and give instant hot water if the demand is high. Some modern pellet boilers will plumb straight into underfloor heating or radiators but log and chip boilers need buffer tanks. They add cost to the project but it makes sense in many cases and can allow for a slightly undersized boiler if there is a buffer tank to take the strain
8. How much wood fuel will I need? This will depend on the size of the boiler (output in kW) as well as the size and heat demand of the property. Energy density of the fuel as well as the type of fuel also affects quantity, space needed and cost of fuel. There are calculations that the installer can do to give you a tonnage per year and wood fuel information and average prices can be found at the Biomass Energy Centre.
9. Will my installation be fully plumbed into my existing heating system? This is an important factor to bear in mind. Do you want the complete installation finished by your biomass company, who only leave when everything is commissioned and working? Or will they only supply the boiler and then leave you to find a plumber?
10. Does it have a Lambda probe? A Lambda probe is a sensor that monitors the oxygen content of the exhaust gases and can adjust vents accordingly to maximise the efficiency of the burning chamber and minimise emissions such as Carbon Monoxide. Boilers with Lambda probes should be eligible for use in smoke free zones as a result of these very low emissions and very high efficiencies.
11. What kind of back burn protection does it have? The modern, automatically-fed biomass boilers should all now have some form of protection to ensure no fuel can catch fire before it reaches the furnace. It is worth checking though, just for peace of mind.
12. How much automation do I want? There is a wide range of biomass boilers on the market, from different regions, with different features, designed for different purposes and people. Some of the factors to bear in mind are: how willing you are to get in the boiler to light it, clean it, fix it and control it? There are boilers with high build quality, self-cleaning, self-lighting and fully programmable, even with web and smart phone access to control remotely. There is always a cost/benefit analysis to do for these features, which over time may be worth the extra cost, especially with the higher build quality that often comes with the more advanced biomass systems.
13. What do I do if I go on holiday? With a log boiler, which needs to be manually fed then the boiler will go out, but residual heat can last in the buffer tank for a while and it will just be potentially cold when you return until the boiler is fired up again to warm things up. With chip and pellet they are fully automated, so can just run an automatic programme
14. Can I burn other fuel sources? This is one to research if you want to burn Miscanthus for example, as this has been notorious for clinkering and breaking boilers, or at least damaging and dramatically lowering the efficiency of them. There are some boilers which use gas recirculation kits and other clever ways to avoid clinkering, but it is worth checking with the manufacturer or trusted installers if you want to use any exotic fuel types. As a general rule untreated wood is the best fuel source. Wood gasification or log boilers can take off-cuts, timber, chip, pellet and sawdust through the furnace door, however a recipe or mixture is advised to balance the burning. There should never be any wood which has paint, varnish, glue or any other additives as this could produce harmful emissions and damage the boiler. Chip and pellet should be bought at the correct moisture content and without any harmful substances in.

I have read you tips for Biomass boilers. And point 7 regarding Buffer tanks. I have been advised to have a buffer tank by my installer but my piumber, who worked on my current sytem, says its not nececssary. I am looking at installing a Grant Spira 26kw biomass boiler. Does the buffer tank add to efficiency or is it just a convenence storing hot water? My currebt oil boiler works fine for my needs, what would be the difference with the buffer tank? I would like to save the money but not at the expense of losing efficiency .
Good advice but I have one more very very important one to add
Ensure that the installation company checks the power supply is adequate before you part with any money. I ordered a 130kW biomass boiler and onlu during installation was it discovered that there was insufficient power to run the inverters as no 3 phase was available.
£10k to bring power to site from a neighbours farm 220m away. Between a rock and a hard place I have to pay for the new supply as the installer says "We could not be expected to know power was inadequate"
GlenfenderComment left on: 8 February 2011 at 2:37 pm
A very good summary. Only point I would add is that some boilers (like the Okofen) are designed to operate very efficiently without a Lambda probe. I understand that one problem with the Lambda probes is that they are prone to failure and expensive to replace.

Hi, Jon. When you say wood fuel should be free of "any other additives", what exactly does this mean? I use offcuts from timber used for making fences, sheds, etc. Is this safe?
Grateful for any advice.

Probably the biggest question, for good reason, that gets asked about coyote hunting is where to find coyotes. Finding where a coyote is will definately up your odds of being able to harvest one. If you do a search on the internet for coyote numbers you will find the number of coyotes are growing. This should make finding a coyote easier, but with the popularity of more and more people going out to hunt them it makes it much harder to bring them in.
Time of Year
The first thing to consider is the time of year. During the warmer months coyotes have access to a rich supply of prey animals. They could be almost anywhere, but they will tend to hang closer to some sort of food and water source. During the winter months food gets scarce. Look for game animals and areas where livestock are being wintered, coyotes won't be far off.
The key to this coyote hunting game is to do your homework before going into the field. A great source of information are ranchers and landowners or anyone that spends time in the areas you plan to hunt. Ask questions about where they are hearing or seeing coyotes and how many. If you are going to hunt private property it is best to not go asking for permission the day you are going to hunt as this can be a big turn off. When looking for areas where to find coyotes scouting is essential.
Open Country
In the west there are some huge open valleys or big desert flats. When one looks at these areas he might not know where to start. Good places to look for coyotes are in the transition areas. Areas where the mountains start to turn into the valleys along the benches or areas where one type of terrain changes into another type of terrain. Another key place to look for coyotes is always around water sources in the dry arid desert.
Tracks, Scat, and Howling
We have talked about areas of where to find coyotes, but how do you really know they are there? I feel like there are three key elements to locating coyotes. The first is to look for tracks. This doesn't mean that you have to get out and do a lot of walking, but it does mean that you stop and check for tracks around watering holes, creek bottoms, or washes that cross the road. Basically, stop to look in places where you think there should be tracks.
Second, pay attention as you drive down the road for scat. Coyotes will use roads as boundary lines and they will mark there territory with scat piles on the road as they are out hunting.
Last but not least is howling. One of the best ways to know where to find coyotes is through howling. Take your howler out in the evenings or early mornings and let out a howl. What better way to find coyotes than to have them respond back at you telling you they are there.

Strong storm system moving across eastern U.S.
Heavy snow along with sleet and freezing rain will fall on Shelton and the state today until 6 p.m., according to the National Weather System.
Snow accumulations will be eight to 13 inches along with around a tenth of an inch of ice.
The heavy snow this continue this morning, briefly mixing with sleet and freezing rain late this morning and then will change back to snow this afternoon. Temperatures will be in the mid 20s.
In addition, Gov. Dannel P. Malloy ordered a delayed opening for state offices on Monday and directed nonessential state employees to report to work at 10 a.m.
Last week, Malloy activated the state's severe cold weather protocol through Feb. 8, which directs the DESPP's Division of Emergency Management and Homeland Security (DEMHS), the Department of Social Services (DSS), the Department of Mental Health and Addiction Services (DMHAS) and the Department of Housing (DOH) to coordinate with 2-1-1 and Connecticut's network of shelters to ensure that the state's most vulnerable people are protected from the severe cold weather.
"State emergency management officials continue to prepare for the potential impacts of this storm and continue to provide me with regular updates," Malloy said.
The main weather story across the continental U.S. will be a strong surface low pressure system tracking across the northeastern U.S. on Monday and Monday night, the weather service said.
This will be a potent winter storm from the Ohio Valley to New England, and numerous winter storm warnings are in effect from eastern Ohio to Maine, where snowfall amounts on the order of six to 12 inches can be expected, with locally higher amounts.
Bitterly cold weather will settle in behind this system from the Upper Midwest to New England.

Knowledge about the visible and invisible universe from an unlikely source
If you have lost someone you deeply love, or have become strongly aware of your mortality, it's hard to avoid wondering about life after death, the existence of God, notions of heaven and hell, and why we are here in the first place. The murder of Matthew McKay's son, Jordan, sent him on a journey in search of ways to communicate with his son despite fears and uncertainty. Here he recounts his efforts — including past-life and between-lives hypnotic regressions, a technique called induced after-death communication, channeled writing, and more.
McKay, a psychologist and researcher, ultimately learned how to reach his son. In this book he provides extraordinary revelations — direct from Jordan — about the soul's life after death, how karma works, why we incarnate, why there is so much pain in the world, the single force that connects us, and our future as souls. Unlike many books about after-death communication, near-death experiences, and past-life memories, this is a book for those who do not believe yet yearn to know what happens after death. In addition to being riveting reading, Seeking Jordan is a unique heart-, soul-, and mind-stirring reflection on the issues each of us will ultimately face.
The spellbinding true story of a former skeptic's communication with his dead son
"In Seeking Jordan, Matthew McKay takes us on a heart-wrenching and challenging journey into his efforts to reconnect with Jordan. His personal odyssey — full of self-doubt, vulnerability, and fearlessness — is one we all must face, a journey of love: love lost and love reclaimed....This book is an enormous gift of hope and liberation that reminds us once more that death is not the end but a new beginning."
— John P. Forsyth, PhD, coauthor of Your Life on Purpose and The Mindfulness & Acceptance Workbook for Anxiety
"Healing runs deep into our soul and helps us stay connected to love that knows no boundaries or separation. Matthew McKay has shared his healing in the face of great loss. We are all better off for the transformative gift that is this poignant and powerful book."
— Marilyn Schlitz, PhD, author of Death Makes Life Possible
"Once I started reading Dr. McKay's book, I couldn't put it down. His story takes the reader on a fascinating journey that begins with his unimaginable suffering over the loss of a son and ends with his profound insights into the ultimate nature of reality and an associated sense of peace and comfort."
— Dr. Allan Botkin, clinical psychologist and author of Induced After Death Communication
"This book is a precious gift for anyone reading it with both an open mind and an open heart. It has changed my life because it has changed my perspective on death — and it can change yours too, if you open up to the possibilities of the revelations it contains. Matthew McKay writes with extraordinary candor and, fortunately for the reader, without concern of what his 'hard-core,' materialistically focused science colleagues might think of him."
— Georg Eifert, PhD, Chapman University Professor Emeritus of Psychology
"A priceless primer on after-death communication, Seeking Jordan is a precious gift for those dealing with the loss of a loved one. Having communicated with thousands of souls across the veil, I recognize the words of Matthew and Jordan McKay as truth."
— Suzanne Giesemann, author of Messages of Hope and Wolf's Message

Risk, grit, daring and doing impossible missions are the trademark of America's Special Operations Forces (SOF). Many American SOF units trace their lineage to the "Devil's Brigade."
During World War II the Allies were struggling to strike out at their enemies. A secret unit of soldiers was created to carry out deadly actions in the face of impossible danger. The unit was called the First Special Service Force.
The Devil's Brigade was a special fighting unit from World War II. This secret fighting outfit combined crack Canadian soldiers and a collection of U.S. Army misfits, many serving time in military jails before they were recruited. At first, there was a conflict between the men of two different armies. Over time hostility turned to friendship and respect. The commando unit was sent to Italy to attempt a dangerous mission that was previously considered impossible to successfully complete.
The Canadians were the handpicked best of the best-trained army in the world, veterans of the fighting at Dunkirk. The Canadian volunteers are the very best of the Canadian army: spit and polish, experienced, and multiskilled soldiers. The Americans were a rough bunch. The Americans are the bottom of the barrel of the U.S. Army: oddballs and troublemakers lacking discipline. Over time, Colonel Robert T. Frederick forges the brass-knuckled Americans and the brass button Canadians into a unified, crack commando fighting force.
Impossible Missions: The Devil's Brigade – WWII's First Special Service Force Part 2 – Training and Men
The unit's name disguised the lethal fighting skills of its men. On the battlefield, their Nazi opponents called them "Die Schwarzen Teufeln" (the Black Devils). Too much of the public, they became known as the Devil's Brigade. To their admirers, they were no less than super commandos.
They were a fighting force like no other. Men of the outdoors attuned to the rigors of rough terrain. They struck with stealth by night. The enemy feared them. They were a force trained to confront danger. They became known as the "Devil's Brigade."
They were a hellish band of men that hated each other more than the enemy until they met the enemy. The unit is sent to Italy where they distinguished themselves in numerous combat actions. A band of men the enemy soon called the "Devil's Brigade." The First Special Service Force is the most unusual group of men ever brought together to win a war.

The last outdoor concert of the summer season hits the lawn at Middletown Arts Center, with a Tuesday night performance by Pat Benatar tribute band Little Paradise.
She's won a shopping cart of awards; platinum-plated an entire wall of her home, and topped more Billboards than a literal flock of seagulls — but when it comes to getting her due in tribute acts, Pat Benatar falls far short of the Beatles, Zep, Floyd, Dead, Springsteen, Sabbath, or even Sublime. That said, if you must see just one Benatar tribute band this summer — let it be Little Paradise, the five-piece salute fronted by vocalist Cathy DaPrato. Armed with a hopper of 1980s-era hits ("Love is a Battlefield," "Hell is For Children," "Shadows of the Night" and of course, "Hit Me With Your Best Shot"), the band takes it to the north lawn of the Middletown Arts Center (MAC) this Tuesday evening, August 26, for the venue's final free outdoor concert of 2014.
Bring your own blanket or lawn chair, plus refreshments, for the 7 pm show — and park your car for free at the MAC's on-premises lot. Weather-related updates and other info can be had by calling (732)706-4100.

| 10.6°C Belfast
The United States has blocked the appointment of former Palestinian prime minister Salam Fayyad to lead the United Nations' political mission in Libya, saying it was acting to support its ally Israel.
US ambassador to the UN Nikki Haley said the Trump administration "was disappointed" to see that UN secretary general Antonio Guterres had sent a letter to the world body's Security Council indicating his intention to appoint Mr Fayyad, who was the Palestinian Authority's prime minister from 2007-2013, as the next special representative to Libya.
"For too long the UN has been unfairly biased in favour of the Palestinian Authority to the detriment of our allies in Israel," Ms Haley said.
Palestine is a non-member observer state at the UN and its independence has been recognised by 137 of the 193 member nations.
But Ms Haley said the United States did not currently recognise a Palestinian state "or support the signal" Mr Fayyad's appointment would send within the UN.
UN diplomats said Mr Fayyad was well-respected for his work in reforming the Palestinian Authority and spurring its economy and had the support of the 14 other Security Council members to succeed Martin Kobler in the Libya job.
Despite opposition to Mr Fayyad, Ms Haley indicated that the Trump administration wanted to see an end to the decades-old Israeli-Palestinian conflict.
"We encourage the two sides to come together directly on a solution," she said.
Her statement came ahead of Israeli prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu's meeting at the White House with US president Donald Trump on February 15, and was welcomed by Israelis.
"This is the beginning of a new era at the UN, an era where the US stands firmly behind Israel against any and all attempts to harm the Jewish state," Israel's UN ambassador Danny Danon said of the US decision to block Mr Fayyad's appointment.
"The new administration proved once again that it stands firmly alongside the state of Israel in the international arena and in the UN in particular."
The new US ambassador made clear that "going forward, the United States will act, not just talk, in support of our allies".
But Mr Trump also indicated in comments to an Israeli newspaper on Friday that there might be some difficult discussions with Mr Netanyahu next week on Israel's settlement expansion.
Mr Trump was quoted as saying that Israel's settlement expansion in land claimed by the Palestinians does not advance peace.
Israel's settlement building has been a key obstacle to the revival of stalled peace talks between Israel and the Palestinians.
Most of the international community considers all Israeli settlements in territory the Palestinians want for a state in Gaza, the West Bank and East Jerusalem illegal and counter-productive to peace.

Dear Mr. Lyons:
An investigation conducted at your firm by investigator Kim A. Rice of our Seattle office (on November 1, 1984) indicates that you manufacture and/or distribute into interstate commerce numerous homeopathic remedies labeled for the treatment of various serious disease conditions~
Our review of the labeling for Micro-Biotic No. 2 Aurinatia states that this product is indicated for the treatment of angina pectoris; arrhythmia, tachycardia, etc. Labeling for Micro-Biotic No. 33 Spasrepilin states that this product is indicated for the treatment of epilepsy. Our review of promotional literature (labeling) for other homeopathic products manufactured and/or distributed by your firm indicates that subject products are labeled for such disease conditions as hypoglycemia, gout, disturbances in cerebral function, pneumonia, lung abscess, etc.
It is the Food and Drug Administration's position that these products are drugs as defined in section 201(g) of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act. Further, we are unaware of any substantial scientific evidence which demonstrates any of your marketed homeopathic drugs are generally recognized as safe and effective for their intended use. Accordingly, continued marketing of these drugs is a serious violation of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act as follows:
|The products, "Micro-Biotic No. 2 Aurinatia", "Micro-Biotic No. 33 Spasrepilin" and all other homeopathic drugs marketed by you are new drugs within the meaning of section 201(p) of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act) since no approvals of application filed pursuant to section 505(b) are effective with respect to such drugs.
The violation listed above is not intended to be all-inclusive. It is your responsibility as a drug manufacturer and distributor to market drug products which are in compliance with the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act.
We request that you take prompt action to correct the above violation. If such action is not taken, the Food and Drug Administration is prepared to invoke regulatory action such as seizure and/or injunction. Please advise us within ten (10) days as to specific actions you have taken to correct the above violation including the discontinuance of all marketed homeopathic drugs.
Your response should be directed to:

Sanders briefs reporters at the White House. Photo: Win McNamee / Getty Images
Press Secretary Sarah Sanders confirmed Monday that President Trump will go with his delegation to meet with world leaders at Davos. The trip was in flux due to the government shutdown, which is expected to end today after the House holds a vote to pass the Senate's CR.
One more thing: Sanders said Trump has full confidence in Commerce Secretary Wilbur Ross. "He loves Wilbur." Axios' Jonathan Swan reported on Sunday that Trump said, "Wilbur has lost his step. Actually, he's probably lost a lot of steps."

Can Military Reserves Run for Political Office?
The Department of Defense permits military reservists of the Army, Navy, Marine Corps, Coast Guard and Air Force to run for elected civil offices in the United States. They must, however, follow the restrictions defined in the Department of Defense directive, "Political Activities by Members of the Armed Forces". Reservists may be required to withdraw their candidacy when they are under a call or given an order to active duty.
Basic Restrictions
If reservists are under a call or given an order to active day for more than 270 days, they cannot run for office, unless the secretary of their military branch grants them permission. Reservists must obtain permission before their active duty begins. If permission is not granted, then the reservist must withdraw his candidacy immediately. If reservists are under a call or given an order to active day for 270 days or less, they may continue running for office, as long as their candidacy does not interfere with their military duties.
Limitations on Campaigning
Reservists may mention in their campaign literature that they are currently serving in the military, but they must clearly state they hold reserve status. They may use military biographical detail and photographs of themselves in their uniform, as long as they provide a disclaimer that states neither their military branch nor the Department of Defense endorses them.

UK Car Inspections have extensive practise inspecting and buying commercial vehicles.
We can check out any van or commercial vehicle for sale on the mainland United Kingdom. Our buyers have years of experience buying commercial vehicles in the UK for the domestic market, Ireland, New Zealand and South America.
Our van inspections give you the same HPI checks and valuations as our car inspections
We also check the vehicle to confirm it meets Euro IV compliance and is currently running the correct GVW as listed so the car will be complied in the correct category. It is not uncommon for UK commercials to be fitted with a tacho and have their weight upgraded. This can cause compliance issues in some markets.
The majority of our trade vans and utes are sourced through BCA British Car Auctions and Manheim Remarketing. We also have access to trade disposals from all of the major commercial leasing companies.
For private customers we can inspect any van/ute or truck that you have found advertised yourself. Import regulations vary from country to country but we do a full underside inspection on all commercial vehicles and catalogue any rust or sill repairs that would raise a flag.
UK roads are spread with salt crystals over winter to melt snow and ice. This does not affect cars in general but commercial vehicles have a lower level of underside protection and can be severely rusted structurally if they have not been cared for. Our inspectors are trained to NZTA standards to document any rust underneath a Van and you will recieve HD photographs to alert your attention to any corrosion.
We can inspect any truck or specialist commercial units such as Plant equipment,tippers,cherry pickers,bin trucks,low loaders etc.
Obviously with such specific vehicles we will tailor a bespoke report to focus on exactly what you need to know. Like all of our other inspections we carry out full background checks on the vehicle including HPI and VOSA licencing checks before we arrange a physical inspection.
For trade customers Manheim remarketing have a specialist heavy commercials division which can be accessed here.

1.) What is Botox Cosmetic?
Botox Cosmetic is an FDA approved product to treat and prevent the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. It's a neurotoxic protein produced by the bacterium Clostridium botulinum. It is widely used, safe, and effective.
2.) How long does it last?
Botox Cosmetic usually lasts 3-4 months.
3.) What are the contraindications to Botox Cosmetic?
Patients who are pregnant, trying to get pregnant, or breastfeeding should not get treated with Botox. Patients who have a neuromuscular disorder, allergic to any of the ingredients in the product, or have an infection at the injection site should also not get treated w/ Botox.
4.) Does Botox treatment hurt?
The treatment is virtually painless! It feels like a small mosquito bite.
5.) Are there any side effects to Botox Cosmetic?
The most common side effect is some potential bruising at the injection site. Some patients experience a mild headache after treatment but this typically subsides within 24 hours.
6.) How does Botox Cosmetic work?
Botox works by relaxing the muscle, preventing the contraction of that muscle, which causes fine lines and wrinkles.
7.) How long is the recovery process after a Botox treatment?
There is essentially no downtime. It is recommended that you avoid any facial treatments, massage, or physical activity for 24 hours. It is also recommended you remain upright for 4 hours, avoid alcohol, and avoid hats/headbands during treatment day.
8.) What is Dermal Filler and what is it used for?
The Dermal Fillers used at Roddy MedSpa are Hyaluronic acids, which are a naturally occurring substance that delivers nutrients to the skin, helping the skin retain moisture and softness while also adding volume.
9.) How long does dermal filler last?
It varies based on what kind of filler is used, but dermal fillers can last anywhere from 6-24 months.
10.) What is the difference between Dermal Filler and Botox?
Dermal filler was created to restore volume where it lacks or was lost (ie smile lines, cheeks, lips). Botox is used to treat fine lines and wrinkles by relaxing the treated muscle and preventing contraction of that muscle.
11.) What are the contraindications to Dermal Filler?
You should not get Dermal Fillers if you are pregnant, trying to get pregnant or breastfeeding. You should not use these products if you have a history of multiple severe allergies, history of anaphylaxis, or if you are allergic to lidocaine.
12.) Are there any side effects to Dermal Filler?
After your treatment, you can experience mild swelling, bruising, and tenderness at the treatment site. This normally subsides within the next few days. It may be normal to feel a "firmness" at the injection site for the first few days, and then soften and settle leaving you with a natural, soft look.
13.) Are Dermal Filler treatments painful?
There is minimal discomfort involved but these fillers contain Lidocaine, making the process tolerable. Roddy MedSpa also uses numbing cream and ice for the comfort of our patients.
14.) What is the downtime after a Dermal Filler treatment?
There isn't much of a downtime! It is however recommended you avoid strenuous exercise for the next 24 hours. Avoid drinking alcohol for the next 12 hours as this may contribute to swelling and or bruising. We recommend waiting at least 1 week before getting any laser or skincare treatments.
15.) When do you see results after a Dermal Filler treatment?
Results are immediate and you can enjoy your rejuvenated look right away!
16.) What is Dermaplaning?
Dermaplaning is a highly safe, efficient physical exfoliation procedure used to take away dry, dead skin cells and vellus hair (peach fuzz). This procedure enhances the health and appearance of the skin. It is also a great add on prior to a peel or botox.
17.) What are Peels?
SkinMedica® Peels address the visible skin imperfections that result from skin aging and sun exposure, such as fine lines and wrinkles, uneven skin tone and texture. Peels also address skin tone unevenness that can be caused by acne scarring or pigmentary changes. SkinMedica® offers a range of different strength chemical peels that can be selected to provide the optimum treatment.

A 23-year-old Democratic activist has officially declared a legislative candidacy for a St. Cloud-area state House of Representatives seat. Dan Wolgamott was known to be interested in a bid for the House District 14A seat, and on Monday he confirmed to the St. Cloud Times that he would run for the office. Wolgamott said he registered with the Campaign Finance and Public Disclosure Board last Friday.
Wolgamott is looking to challenge Rep. Tama Theis, R-St. Cloud, the first-term lawmaker who won a special election to replace former GOP Rep. Steve Gottwalt. In that contest, Wolgamott worked on the campaign of Theis' DFL opponent, Joanne Dorsher. With fewer than 5,000 votes cast in the mid-February election, Theis won with 54 percent of the district vote.
Following her win, Theis joined the 2013 legislative session more than a month after it began, and often invoked her experience as a small business owner to bolster her opposition to tax increases supported by the DFL majorities. Theis runs a remodeling business along with her husband.
Wolgamott has also worked on successful campaigns for Rep. Zach Dorholt, DFL-St. Cloud, as well as former DFL House member Larry Hosch. Wolgamott, a Nebraska native, attended St. John's University, where he played as an offensive lineman on the school's football team. He now works as a realtor and coaches high school football at Sauk Rapids-Rice High School.
Wolgamott told the Times his campaign would be focused on education funding levels. He also pointed out that the area had a history of electing young representatives, including Hosch, who first won election as a 27-year-old, and Doug Stang, a Republican who was just 22 when he won election to the House.
"This area has a history of electing people who are young, people who are energetic, people who have the energy to go out and listen to people," he said.

How to Remove the Headlight Assembly From a PT Cruiserby Chris Moore
The PT Cruiser uses two headlight assemblies that contain all the headlight and turn-signal bulbs, as opposed to some larger models that may have additional housings for things like fog lights. If one of the headlight assemblies is cracked, broken or otherwise damaged, you need to remove it for replacement. You need to access the assembly from underneath the car, which can be a bit challenging given the car's low clearance. Installing the assembly is the reverse of removal.
Step 1
Raise the front end of the car and support it on jack stands, then remove the front wheel next to the headlight you are going to remove.
Step 2
Remove the fender-well splash shield for the wheel you just removed, unscrewing its fasteners with a flare-nut wrench.
Step 3
Open the hood and remove the four bolts at the top edge of the radiator grille using the wrench. Pull the grille out of the car body and pull its locating tabs out of the body to remove the grille.
Step 4
Remove the three fasteners connecting the bumper to the fender to open up more space for the headlight housing. You may also need to remove at least one of the bumper-to-radiator crossmember bolts with a wrench.
Step 5
Unscrew and remove the retaining nuts for the headlight housing; the nuts are accessible in the fender well. Detach the housing, pull it out of the car and disconnect the bulb electrical connectors.
Rotate the bulb holder counterclockwise and pull it out of the housing.
- You can remove a headlight bulb without removing the housing from the body. Raise the car and remove the wheel as described above, detach and rotate the access panel from the fender well. You can now rotate the bulb holder, pull it out of the housing and disconnect the electrical connector.
Items you will need

It was great to hear such a positive, upbeat statement from the Chancellor earlier this afternoon when he made his Spring Statement.
I certainly welcome the work the government is doing to support innovation and entrepreneurship, so to hear Hammond say that the government is backing entrepreneurship is particularly encouraging.
It's also encouraging to hear that there is going to be consultation on US tech giants' tax affairs. For me though, the government's line still doesn't feel strong enough.
I am incredibly proud to pay tax on the revenue we generate. I know that it directly contributes to the UK economy, so I can't help but find the government's inaction on tech tax baffling. Particularly so while they award them (Amazon Web Services in particular) massive contracts to provide technology.
If all UK entrepreneurs took advantage of the tax rules that apply to these off-shore businesses, Britain would collapse. It's the tax-paying SMEs that prop this country up. At present, the UK taxpayer is being taken for a ride by the tax affairs of these companies. We really need action on this issue as a matter of urgency.
With rumours circulating that both the EU and UK are to introduce a tax on revenue rather than profit for these multinationals, time will tell if the government really does level the playing field for us British firms who are proud to contribute to the broader economy.
Another positive for the economy
Equally positive was the news of further investment in apprenticeships. Apprenticeships are undoubtedly an essential tool for us to plug the skills gap and aid our struggling productivity levels.
The £80m investment to support smaller businesses in taking on apprentices is a hugely positive step. Apprenticeships are perhaps the most effective way to deliver work-ready technical skills and plug the digital skills gap.
The Spring Statement was unquestionably more of a light step than spring forward. Whilst it was a fairly sparse statement, there is no denying the positives that can be taken from Hammond's announcement.
What did you take from the Spring Statement? I'd love to hear your thoughts.

My newest project is this fish platter. It is hand painted with glass enamels and bordered with hand cut clear glass chips and some glass powder. This is contour fused and ready to slump into a 8x12 rectangular platter mold.
I am still living in my motorhome and only brought clear glass to work with. This piece was created to use up a lot of scrap glass that has accumulated after cutting out circles. I did my contour fuse at 1400 this time and I am happy with the softer rounded edges of the chipped glass.

BIRMINGHAM, England, Oct 8 (Reuters) - Britain'sConservative-led government would cut an extra 10 billion poundsa year from its welfare budget and slash spending across theboard in the next phase of austerity if re-elected, financeminister George Osborne will say on Monday.
The 2015 election is likely to be decided on the health ofthe economy, how fast the deficit should be tackled and whatareas of spending and taxation each party would focus on tobalance Britain's bloated public finances.
The Conservatives, who had bet growth would reduce thedeficit and help them win the next election, are struggling witha recession and a series of blunders which have put them about10 percentage points behind the Labour Party in opinion polls.
Osborne and Prime Minister David Cameron are trying to usetheir party's annual conference in the English city ofBirmingham to project an image of economic prudence.
They hope voters will welcome a further 10 billion pounds ofcuts in welfare spending - an area often portrayed in the mediaas rife with scroungers and waste.
"We are both satisfied that this is possible and we willwork together to find savings of this scale," Osborne said in anarticle with work and pensions minister Iain Duncan Smith forMonday's Daily Mail.
Osborne, a close Cameron ally who was booed by crowds beforehe presented medals to winners at the Paralympics last month,will make a speech at the conference on Monday.
The "social protection" budget, by far the biggest of alldepartmental spending, is estimated to come in at 207 billionpounds in 2012/13 - almost a third of total spending.
Labour, which wants to see more taxes on banks and the rich,says Osborne has cut spending too quickly and choked demand, butthe government says softening its austerity plan would endangerBritain's recovery by putting its low borrowing costs at risk.
Osborne's March budget showed he would have to cut borrowingby 49 billion pounds ($79 billion) in the two years followingthe 2015 election, after weak growth put paid to the coalition'splan to deal with a record budget deficit in this parliament.
Investors say that Osborne will be forced to either cutspending more deeply or extend austerity well into the nextparliament to honour his pledge to get Britain's deficit undercontrol because of a return to recession this year.
Cutting more from the welfare budget would allow cuts atother government departments to be held at a similar pace as isbeing enforced in current spending plans which run until the endof the 2014/15 fiscal year, according to Treasury calculations.
The government's next spending review, expected before 2015,will cover much of the 2015-2020 parliament and set the tone forthe election battle.
Osborne, who delivers economic and borrowing forecasts onDec. 5, is expected to make a blunt assessment of the challengesfacing Britain in Monday's speech and to say austerity should beborne in a fair way by all sections of society.
However, he has dismissed calls by the Liberal Democratjunior coalition partners for a tax on expensive homes or afurther tax on the wealthy.($1 = 0.6176 British pounds)

Report Roundup
Wellness Policies
"Local School Wellness Policies: Assessing School District Strategies for Improving Children's Health"
Most of the school wellness policies that districts now have in place are weak, a report concludes.
The study, released last month by the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation of Princeton, N.J., draws from a representative sample of 500 to 600 districts that had wellness policies in place at the start of either the 2006-07 or 2007-08 school year.
Researchers found, for instance, that while most districts outlined strong nutritional guidelines for school meals, fewer requirements were in place for food sold in á la carte lines, vending machines, and school stores.
The study also found that only 18 percent of elementary school students were enrolled in a district that requires daily recess, and that some districts require a specific amount of time for physical activity but not for physical education.

Paris: Capgemini staff gave a strong vote of confidence in the firm last week by taking up shares in the global IT consultancy.
Six million shares offered to employees as part of Capgemini's second global employee-shareholding plan were fully subscribed.
The six million newly-issued shares were subscribed at a price of 25.76 euros and carry rights to dividends distributed in respect of the period as from January 1, 2012.
The corresponding capital increase, carried out on September 27, rises to 154.56 million euros and brings the number of shares comprising Capgemini's share capital to 161,770,362 on January 1, 2012.
This successful operation follows a previous share offer in 2009, and results in a significant increase in employee ownership of Group capital, which reached almost 7% on September 27 compared with 3.4% on December 31, 2011: employees thus become one of the major shareholders of the Group.
Capgemini says it is also testament to the evolution of the Group's geographical activities, with subscribers including those from two new countries: Brazil and Guatemala.
Paul Hermelin, Capgemini Chairman and CEO said, "The objective of this employee-shareholding plan was to associate, over the long-term, the greatest number of employees with the company's development and performance, while stabilizing our capital. We now rank among the top CAC 40 (French quoted) companies in terms of employee shareholding."

A student property portfolio in Nottingham worth £3.25m has been purchased by Nottingham-based MS Estates on behalf of a London-based institution.
Located in prime student rental areas in Lenton and the Arboretum, the nine multiple occupancy properties will accommodate more than 50 students and are expected to generate more than £264,000 per annum in rental income, with yields of 8.1%.
According to recent headlines, the demand for student accommodation in Nottingham is very high. In fact one in 12 homes in the city are bracketed as student accommodation, equivalent to 11,000 student homes in Nottingham all told.
"We were approached by the seller of the properties directly," said Michael Sahota, of MS Estates. "I think that he was a little surprised to learn what the market was like and what he could achieve."
He added: "We told him that we had clients who would purchase the portfolio and do so with no fuss."
The seller of the nine properties – a respected landlord based in Nottingham – has continued to refurbish the properties over the last decade, returning them to their original brickwork and finishing to a high standard with quality furniture and fittings.
"This sale reflects the increasing student expectation of housing in recent years," Lucy Barlow, lettings manager at MS Estates, commented. "More of them are willing to pay a premium in rent for better quality accommodation, and this buyer will not only provide that in the finish of the houses but in the management of them also."
Sahota, who runs the MS Estates business – based in Lenton – with his wife Satty, handled the acquisition personally and his company are now looking for other opportunities in Nottingham for a range of high net worth clients.
The above deal is not quite the biggest MS Estates have handled. In 2013, Sahota brokered a deal for a £5 million portfolio of 16 properties capable of housing 99 students.

All the world stock markets seem to have gone up a little, with the exception of China, who's very impressive 9 percent growth figure released yesterday reassured the world that the economic Recovery remains on course.
The markets will generally trend upwards for the next few days, as Tom DeMark the highly respected technical analyst and author of several best-selling books on the markets, is predicting S&P Index will reach 1250 by this Friday. That means another 2 percent for the US markets to go up. But, please bear in mind, the market seldom goes up or down in one fell swoop, so it will probably zigzag generally upwards.
Dampers on the markets are the Spain downgrade, the 48-hour strikes against austerity and cuts in Greece, and the Eviction of Travellers in Dale Farm, Basildon, here in England.
If the world were to invest in Greek companies as medium-to-high risk and let Greece regain its economic bearings, maybe that could be the best solution to its problems,
together with a neat, long haircut on the debt, especially the 2-year bonds.
But the world is not perfect, so next two days are to observe.
Till next time.

Saif Ali Khan on daughter Sara's acting debut: Feels like my film is releasing
Saif Ali Khan is all excited for the acting debut of his daughter Sara with 'Kedarnath' and the actor said it feels like his own film is releasing
Saif Ali Khan is all excited for the acting debut of his daughter Sara with "Kedarnath" and the actor said it feels like his own film is releasing. Saif will begin 2018 with his upcoming release "Kaalakaandi", while Sara's debut feature film "Kedarnath" will open in December the same year. When asked how he feels about his daughter's film releasing the same year as his, Saif told reporters here, "I am happy, I am excited for her. I think when we get close to that release, it will be like my own film is releasing."
Sara Ali Khan
The first look of the film was released recently and Saif said he is confident "that she (Sara) will be very good." He was speaking at the trailer launch of "Kaalakaandi" last evening. Produced by Cinestaan Film Company and Ashi Dua Sara of Flying Unicorn, the film stars Saif along with Deepak Dobriyal, Vijay Raaz, Kunaal Roy Kapoor, Sobhita Dhulipala, Akshay Oberoi, Isha Talwar, Shenaz Treasury, Shivam Patil, Amyra Dastur and Neil Bhoopalam.
"I wouldn't call 'Kaalakaandi' a niche film, I'd call it unpretentious. It was a lot of fun. They were all good actors and I think my acting has improved after working with some of these guys," he said. Directed by Akshat Verma, "Kaalakaandi" will hit the screens on January 12. The movie will be Saif's first release after this year's "Chef". The 47-year-old actor said it is sad that the Raja Krishna Menon film could not perform well at the box office. "I liked his (Raja's) attempt, it was a little European in flavour, and the drama could be a bit more, and I think he generally avoids drama. I think the palette of the film was a little western, I have also got some good reviews, but then some things are really not in your control."
The actor also feels the movie could have been marketed well. "I don't think it was even publicised correctly. I didn't see enough buzz around the film. It's ok doing interviews, but you've to show the trailer, show hoardings, spend some money. "These days, people don't want to spend money on marketing, they send the actors to 'Bigg Boss' or 'Comedy Nights with Kapil' to talk about the movie, thinking it'll help, but it won't."

Tips for Using the Minimum 88.6% Retracement with Fibonacci Pattern in Forex Trading
When you seek the Fibonacci trading, there are 3 main patterns:
1. The usage of multiple setbacks and extensions for identifying price levels in different Fibonacci levels that overlap for producing "clusters."
2. The use of multiple indicators like MACD in different Fibonacci levels.
3. The use of Fibonacci levels as a part in a larger graphic pattern, like in the case of "head and shoulders" pattern.
Here, you would find information on a specific Fibonacci level with focus on trade and mostly in seclusion. It is the decline of 88.6%. For summarization, this level, which was reached after using 0.618, the Golden Ratio, the square root and the square to achieve 0886.
When it is exclaimed that it is achieved by making retracement of Fibonacci, it means the retracement to 88.6% tells the range of the original characters. Therefore, if the starting step involved 100 pips up retracing to 88.6, the grains are going to decline. The unique thing about Fibonacci levels is that they are not influenced by a specific time. They feature the same importance as wanted in a weekly long-term chart, or else they have an graphic instant five minutes.
The first price achieved high Point X 1.1967 on 8th March, 2009. Then, it came down to .9909 on the Y-Point on 22nd November 2009. Therefore, the price came down to 2058 points in 37 weeks. The Z price point comes to 1.1730 on 30th May, 2010, which is 28 weeks post Y point. When the figures and diagrams are examined, they were at 2 points with the retracement level being 88.6%. This is unbelievable, as the price was up thousands of points for many weeks already, which is the precise matching with the main Fibonacci levels.
When this level is identified, you would find a spotless hit giving a trader over a 1000 pips, when the trader chooses to stay put once the price retracement ends Point-Z. This was accompanied with the long-term decline in USD / CHF, which can be experienced even today. Else, finding that an important Fibonacci level was clean and tested with success, an operator is capable of making several trades in short-span chart, even in 1 hour, seeking items for selling USD/CHF. Use a long-term plan while entering shorter-term time frames, keeping higher risk-reward ratios and tight stop-loss in your trade.
One of the possible targets in your trades can be either the beginning of the retracement, expanding 100% of the starting movement, or Point Y, with starting point being a little out of Point Y.
