This is a decision which many people face, and the decision is not as easy to make as it may sound.
That, combined with regular appreciation in property values, can be a rapid and rewarding way to increase your net worth.
In contrast, the person renting over the same amount of time is left with no property investment but may have enjoyed lower living expenses and the opportunity to invest in other opportunities.
When comparing owning to renting, you have to add up all of the figures, including the cost of your home, the size of your down payment, utilities, immediate repairs, interest rates and insurance, and compare them with how much you are currently spending on rent.
Of course, you also have to place a value on the enjoyment and satisfaction that you will derive from owning your own home.

Saudi Aramco has plans to construct 11 stadiums in Saudi Arabia as part of the King Abdullah Program, which has been designed to enhance sports facilities throughout the Kingdom
The new stadiums will be built in Madinah, Al-Qassim, Eastern Province, Asir, Tabuk, Hail, Northern Borders Region, Jazan, Najran, Baha and Al-Jouf, according to reports. Each stadium would have a capacity to each seat at least 45,000 spectators.
According to the Saudi Press Agency (SPA), Al Naimi, minister of petroleum and mineral resources, stated that the stadiums would be built according to international specifications and standards.
The SPA stated that Abdullah ibn Abdilazīz, the King of Saudi Arabia, was keen to show his support to youth sports by developing sports centres and stadiums.
Earlier, Saudi Aramco funded the construction of the King Abdullah Sports City in Jeddah, which was inaugurated in May 2014. King Abdullah Sports City houses the 60,000 seater King Abdullah Stadium – a modern sports structure built in line with FIFA requirements.

Calacirian is one of my favourite blogs, which I link to much too infrequently. In this great post (that continues the Myers Briggs profile conversation), she talks about being an introverted woman. This is powerful stuff:
There are many times I find myself in that awkward position. Shaken. Unable to speak. Something of grave import has just occurred and I ought to speak, share something. Instead I find that I must process and think. Speaking into the moment means I will say something dangerous, or foolish or heartless. But not speaking leaves others with the mistaken impression that I am in agreement or have assented with them. Or at the very least do not disagree with them. I have attempted processing and thinking into emotionally intense situations … it ends very badly.
I think this might be especially true because I am a woman. Women do not do well being introverts. We do not do well being introverts who process for long periods of time and who need time to think things through in emotionally intense situations. Culturally, we are expected to be able to navigate emotional situations with ease. We are expected to not become angry. An angry woman is seen as a domineering bitch, but an angry man is seen as taking control of a situation. In any given situation the woman loses, the man wins. So as a woman who struggles with navigating those waters; navigating emotionally intense situations without a safety net is particularly uncomfortable for me. It brought me up short to read this in ch. 2 Patterns: spatial observations of Organic Community:
This "encouragement" may also be quietly reinforced within church leadership structures. Perhaps we've successfully forced everyone into some form of a small group. This in itself might be okay if we recognize that many kinds of groupings can serve the same role as "small groups." Instead, the pressure continues when small group leaders are told that if intimate connections are not taking place within their groups, their groups are failures. We need to bear in mind that the most accurate word to describe the process of forcing intimate connection is rape. (p. 46 – italics the author's)
"The most accurate word to describe the process of forcing intimate connection is rape." I've been considering that sentence for the month or so since I read it. I've been reading it and rereading it in it's context. Thinking about the times I've been forced to be in more intimate connections with people than I was comfortable with and praying for forgiveness for the times that I've asked it of others. Pondering, as I am wont, how to strike a healthy balance so that intimacy may be won and adversity lost. (Links in the original.)

This week was pretty crazy, though after seeing your pictures and reading about the weather there, it really hasn't been too bad... We officially have snow in Ohio. On Friday night we got a pretty big storm (Ohio-speaking). It was bad enough that we got a message from the assistants saying that all cars in the mission were GROUNDED! We couldn't drive! So we did what we could, we made muffins and took them to people in our area in the snow! It was quite the party... Ohio also doesn't have intricate snow-removal systems like Utah, so when it snows here, they are much more likely to shut the schools down. And that's what they did. Also, because they don't have tons of snow-removal stuff, the roads get super icy. Last night we were late to a few appointments because everyone was driving so slow...
Thanks for the package! I got a notice for it on Thursday, but they didn't want to leave it on the doorstep, so they took it back to the post office, and I didn't have time to get there until Saturday. But I got it! That GPS will definitely be helpful. Elder Graf had one, and we were given one to use in this area by Elder Elbaba's trainer, but this one will certainly be put to good use. If you want, you can go ahead and activate that warranty that you were talking about. Thanks also for all of the cards and letters and things. I haven't had time yet to read them all, but I'll let you know when I have and thank you again!
As far as the work goes here, it's still going. We filled in that giant trench that we dug before the snow came, and hopefully that family will have power in the next week or so. We talked with a local library that is near to a lot of Hispanics, and we will be starting some English classes there after the first of the year! I'm excited for that! We were also given a bunch of holiday treats to take around to our investigators by one of the English members. And those treats helped us get a new investigator. The English member made those same mini-cheesecake things that you make Mom!
We taught D----- (E-----) the word of wisdom this past week, and he committed to keep it and give up a few things that would hold him back from living it. We also taught a new investigator who came to church for the branch anniversary party. We taught him with the branch president, and it went really well. It's amazing to see how people have been prepared to receive the gospel by the experiences that they have in their lives.
That's about all I've got! Thanks for everything! Have a great week! We have Elder Cristoffersen coming to our stake conference this weekend and Elder Perkins of the 70 coming to our mission conference, so this should be a good week!

Krokodil, a homemade injectable opioid, gained its moniker from the excessive harms associated with its use, such as ulcerations, amputations and discolored scale-like skin. While a relatively new phenomenon, krokodil use is prevalent in Russia and the Ukraine, with at least 120,000 people estimated to have injected the drug in 2011.
Drug addiction was a subject matter or main set-up of many amazing novels: Mikhail Bulgakov´s Morphine, Anthony Burgess's A Clockwork Orange, William Burroughs's Naked Lunch and Junky, Irvine Welsh's Trainspotting, to name only a few. Marina Akhmedova's new novel KROKODIL is the first to document the life of Russians addicted to this new powerful synthetic drug, which is now beginning its frightening march through Europe, and which soon threatens to spread throughout the globe. This deadly concoction made from cheap ingredients is powerfully addictive, quickly leading to a breakdown of personality while literally eating apart the flesh of addicted victims, turning them into living zombies in a matter of weeks.
In 2011, Marina Akhmedova spent four days in Yekaterinburg, central Russia, in the company of desomorphine concocters and users, whose harrowing experiences and damaged bodies are the stuff of nightmares. She was met with a picture of desperation, punctured by love, humanity and misplaced hope. The result of her experience was described in a harrowing piece of reportage journalism — perhaps unwisely, now banned in Russia (available in English on OpenDemocracy webpage: Snap goes the Crocodile).
Akhmedova's "KROKODIL" is placed in the same community of drug users. There are six main characters to the novel, all pertaining to the same ´sector´ (as drug dens are called in local argot), though obviously the main protagonist of the story is the drug itself. Krokodil is their most beloved friend and most hated enemy, their only motivational factor ruling over any situation, a silent killer holding their destinies in its cold hand.
The most powerful stylistic choice that sees Akhmedova's cause triumph is her crafting of dialogue. Akhmedova shows rather than tells. To be more specific, Akhmedova allows her protagonists to tell, and deliver the atrocities of their experiences themselves, and the story is all the stronger for it. For it's the speakers that articulate the horrors of their situation better than anyone else, be it the circular, and inevitably futile, nature of their existence, the ironic philosophy with which they live their lives, and the altogether sheer ludicrousness of what they consider normalcy. Implicit irony is a powerful device in literature, and Akhmedova wields it with purpose, for it is much more galling when the incongruity is derived ourselves rather than explained by the author.
Akhmedova's writing is entirely honest, almost brutally so. Yet Akhmedova is not afraid of adjectives, and the novel definitely is not without a certain lyricism. The reader is drawn into a dark, Grimm-like fable, with a raucous witch concocting a potion in a wood cabin. And - in true Grimm's Brother fashion - there is no happy ending to the tale.

They say change is a good thing, and in our humble opinion, nothing proves that phrase more than when an addictive social-media site switches things up. Following in Facebook's recent footsteps is another Bay-based site that has us glued to our computer screens: The must-repin-everything hub, Pinterest, has unveiled a spankin'-new layout that won't have you longing for the original. Honestly, the changes are so subtle, you might not even spot them. Luckily, we're here to break it down for you!
The most apparent addition to the redesign is the absence of white border space surrounding the images — this allows for larger pictures on your feeds and boards. Speaking of — creating a new board on your profile will be easy-peasy as there's an added clickable box to create a fresh folder. Most importantly, discovering new pins has become an even more interactive experience, thanks to new features like side panels (these display other pins from the same board) and a section that lets you see what "people who pinned this also pinned." Yeah, the site has become that much more of an endless labyrinth of inspiration. (We thought it was impossible, too!)
But, don't whip out your phone just yet, pinsters! The updated look is only available on the desktop for now. So tell us, do you think these small changes pack a big punch, or do they leave your pin "bored"? Weigh in below! (Mashable)

From Goodreads:
"You don't have to choose. You can be both. The girl with the charm, the girl without. They both suit you."
Caris Harper lives a charmed life. Literally.
When her dad offers to take her to the Emerald coast of Florida for summer vacation, Caris jumps at the chance. The chance to get answers to questions she's always been too afraid to ask. The chance to be normal. Isn't that what her dreams have been telling her, that here in the place of her birth she can be normal? But from the first moment the wind caresses her face and the sun touches her skin, the charm begins to fade, revealing a girl Caris never knew existed, one that is anything but normal. The long-buried Song that awakens is only the beginning of a transformation that will challenge her ideas about loyalty and family.
Noah Jacobs is a waterbreather—a species of human fully adaptable to life in the water. Like his older brother Jamie, Noah wants to prove they can use their abilities and be heroes in service to their country. When a simple mission goes wrong and Jamie goes missing, Noah exiles himself to the Deep in a desperate search. MIA is a classification Noah is not ready to accept. But instinct can't be ignored. Not when he hears her Song. Caris is not what he expects and Noah is determined to get her out of his head. Instead he finds himself acting as her mentor and the more time they spend together, the more Noah realizes he just wants Caris.
When a startling truth threatens their newly formed trust, Noah straddles the line between love and obsession while Caris struggles to find a balance between the girl she thought she was and the young woman she wants to be.
My Thoughts:
This book has been on my To-Be-Read and Must-Buy list for a while, so when the author offered this for Read 2 Review, I grabbed the chance! I never read anything about sea creatures... well, except for Little Mermaid which I watched as a kid. ( I love Ariel! ..and now I am hearing "Part of my world" playing inside my head! haha. )
I just loved the cover of this book! There's something ethereal about it.Under the sea or the deep was entirely a different world. It was vast ..deep ...and for me, very mysterious. Many times , this question crossed my very curious mind: Are there any "life forms" underneath other than the sea creatures we are familiar with? Stories of long ago tells us there are mermaids, a half human , half fish...if it was true, then we are never alone?
I loved how Ms. Kimberly James described everything in this book. It opened all my senses. I was surprised I felt the waves like it was slowly caressing my feet ... when the wind blew, I felt it touch my face...and smelled the salty air. Yes, it was that good! When Caris Harper set her foot to Emerald Coast, I feel I was with her too.
Raised by her Dad alone, Caris Harper felt incomplete and never normal. When her father brought her to their beach house at Emerald Coast, she felt something. She heard something ...as if the Deep was calling her. The moment it touches her feet , she felt a pull... and released a Song.. her song. Caris has her Song and not just an ordinary song, it's a song of a Siren, a water breather. A powerful song that attracts its chosen recipient even against his will. There's no other choice but to follow and obey.
After Noah's brother , Jaime went missing, he took it really hard. Harboring all the guilt , he became a recluse and choose to live in the Deep. It was only when he heard that distinct Song, her call that drove him to resurface even against his will. He can't even ignore it... who is she? Anger and resentment filled him as he goes ashore.... and found Caris lying , eyes closed near the beach. There is really something about this girl, and he can't help it ...he kissed Caris. And Caris thought that this gorgeous guy was nothing but a dream. This is where their story begins...
So, it's like a mermaid and ...mer-man story? Well, not exactly. For starters, Caris ( I just loved the name!) doesn't even know that she's a water breather / siren! She can't even swim?! ( Oh, yeah, how ironic huh?! ) ...and as opposed to how we picture out our typical mermaid with long ,beautiful ,flowing hair? Caris' hair doesn't grow long ?! So, it's always pixie hair for her. It's a bummer specially when you are constantly tease that you might be a boy?! I could imagine Caris to feel a little insecure, herself.
And now, let's talk about Noah, oh he is a pretty boy ! Uhmm, I mean , a hot water breather! ( like most of the other water breathers! Hah! ) Yes, there's more of them! Imagine, lean , just the right amount of muscle mass on just the right places....*closing my eyes* yeah, I assume a swimmer's body like ...Michael Phelps?! Tee-hee! and I forgot to mention, Noah has this glorious long , long hair...like...like.. hmmm.. Brad Pitt from "Legends of the Fall" ( only longer! Hah!) I admit, I'm not really into the super long hair type of guy... but if Noah looks like this??? I won't complain! hehe!
No matter how much Noah tried to avoid Caris, he always end up within her proximity. Well, he can't shut down that song that keeps on bugging inside his head, right? Suprisingly, he felt protective of her. Caris is also drawn to this boy who she rescued from a bunch of losers who tried to beat him up and cut off his hair. ....wait! hair?! What's with this hair thing?! Curious , are we? Well, you have ro read this book to find it out yourself. I tell you, you'll have a lot of time ( or pages) to know everything once you started reading this one. It's a long book! 1,300 plus pages on my bookreader! Oh it's a huge book...but believe me, you'd love every page of it! I never get bored from page one to last. ( I actually want more!)
I love the pace of the story. It was really descriptive that will sucked you into the story. I don't even know how to swim ( yeah, it's a bummer. Sigh.) but when Noah gave Caris her swimming lessons, I felt I was actually learning to swim! ( oh yeah! With a water breather ...a hottie? )
The moment Caris went and embrace the deep after knowing the truth about who she was... she felt she finally belong. The charm weakened then her hair grew longer, she actually had gills and a web on her foot.. like a water breather . I had a dream-like moment as I read this part.
I just loved their underwater moments. The kisses... and literally playing with a pod of dolphins?! It was way ..way... Swoony! I could totally imagine that scene.. like this... Swoony..swoony..swoony!
This new, unexplored slowly growing something she had for Noah gave her mixed feelings. There is hesitation. She knew she was falling for him...but Noah? Did he really felt the same or is it because of her Song? Because he had no choice? And Noah, will he still felt the same for her if there is no Song? All these questions are about to get their answers as these two learned about self discovery, friendship,love, trust , what family truly means and making a choice.
Overall, it was a wonderful read. The ending is what I had in mind. It was perfect! I would be so looking forward to what's next for both Noah and Caris.
If you are a firm believer of "Happily Ever Afters" like I do... and won't mind swimming ( and probably drown?!) in an ocean of Swoons with equally lovable water breathers like Noah and Caris... then what are you waiting for? Dive ..ooops! I mean, grab this book fast and be captivated like I did.
I'm giving this book:
4 Swoony Seaside stars!

|System: 3DS
|Dev: AlphaDream
|Pub: Nintendo
|Release: August 11, 2013
|Players: 1
|Screen Resolution: N/A
|Mild Cartoon Violence
Behind the usual zaniness are some touching moments that shine the spotlight on Mario and Luigi's relationship as brothers. Although they only speak in unintelligible gobbledegook that is interpreted by other characters, the game's superb sprite work clearly shows their emotions. We see Mario as the devoted older brother who never gives up on Luigi and graciously takes a supporting role when Luigi's dream powers bring him to the forefront. We also see Luigi as the younger brother who idolizes Mario and dreams of throwing off his own reputation as a clumsy screw-up. It's rare that we see sibling relationships explored in games, and it's quite heartwarming to experience this human side of Nintendo's venerable mascots.
The high-quality sprites for Mario, Luigi, and the game's other characters aren't the only bright spots in its audiovisual presentation. Both the 3D Regular World and the 2D Dream World settings are sharp and vivid. Each Dream World is a weird, topsy-turvy version of the area from which it was accessed, giving plenty of diversity to the Dream World environments. Great animation brings everything to life, from the movements of each individual Luigi in a Luigi stack to the over-the-top moves in Giant Battles.
Although it's not up to the standard of Nintendo's best Mario soundtracks (I miss you, Mario Galaxy), the music in Dream Team is high quality and catchy. The sound effects are great, and Charles Martinet's memorable Mario and Luigi voice clips are used to good effect. There's still no real voice acting in the game, but considering the outrageous accents many of the characters have, that's probably just as well. What's funny in text could easily be mauled by a voice actor.
Now in its fourth incarnation, the Mario & Luigi RPG series keeps things fresh by adding crazy new gameplay concepts into each game. The Dream World is the best of these so far, and allows the game's creators to advance Mario and Luigi's character development in a way that's rarely seen from Nintendo. A game that feels fresh and fun throughout, Mario & Luigi: Dream Team is recommend for anybody with decent reflexes. Role-playing fans will be happy that unlike Paper Mario: Sticker Star, this game retains its RPG elements. Other gamers will simply enjoy the solid gameplay, colorful world, and the sense of humor and fun that pervades the entire experience.

Electric Guitars
About Electric Guitars
An instrument unlike any other, the electric guitar gives musicians a feeling and hands-on experience that's nearly indescribable. Even with the same electric guitar, no two players sound exactly alike. Every nuance of the player's hands comes out in the electric guitar's tone, both in fretting and plucking the strings. The best players master not only command of the electric guitar, but also its interaction with their effects and amplifier. It's difficult to imagine a world without the combination of the electric guitar and amplifier, yet it's still relatively new in music. By the turn of the twentieth century, it only made sense that the popularity of the guitar would soon be combined with the onset of electronics. Over the past 75 years, the electric guitar has established itself as one of the most iconic, unforgettable instruments in the world. From jazz and big band to rock 'n' roll and funk, popular music would be drastically different today had it not been for the electric guitar.
By the 1950's, brands like Gibson and Fender were gaining notoriety thanks to the popularity of rock 'n' roll and its stars weilding electric guitars. Guitarists like Dick Dale, Bo Diddley, Chuck Berry and Chet Atkins could all be found carving their own places in music history with the electric guitar, and by the early 60's the instrument saw an extraordinary upsurge in popularity. Today, there are an endless amount of rock sub-genres, making no shortage of superbly crafted electric guitars from the world biggest brands, including Ibanez, Epiphone, and Danelectro, as well as Godin, Gretsch, Peavey and more. Whether you're into black metal or folk rock, you can be sure that there's an electric guitar that perfectly matches your own style and tastes, and it can easily be found right here, regardless of your skill level or budget.
If you're looking for one of the best Strats Fender has to offer, be sure to check out the Fender American Professional Stratocaster. Developed with pickup master Tim Shaw, its brand-new V-Mod single-coil pickups are voiced specifically for each position, mixing alnico magnet types to produce powerful, nuanced tones with original Fender sonic DNA. For metal guitarists, have a look at the Jackson JS32 DKA electric guitar. Swift, mean, and easy to play, this guitar offers classic Jackson tone and playability at a more than affordable price. If you're looking for a Les Paul guitar, a great choice is the Epiphone Les Paul Custom PRO electric guitar. If you're ready to step up to a Gibson Les Paul, the 2019 Gibson electric guitar lineup is in-stock.
What is the perfect electric guitar for you? For many experienced players, that answer changes with the song and their mood. If you're unsure where to start, find inspiration in your favorite music. Even the greatest guitar players of all time have idols and influences. As you progress as a player, you'll find a style and tone that's all your own.

Monaco Treasure APP Is Monaco Treasure SCAM OR REAL Investments? When I studied the principles of investment at university, I learned that the share price reflects the values of the company. Using fundamental analysis, there were many ways that one could use them to analyze the financial statements of companies to see if the current stock price was a good investment or not. You can perform horizontal and vertical analyzes on standard corporate listings which are just important terms to compare numbers. You can calculate specific financial rates to get a better understanding of the company's liquidity, working capital management and its long-term viability and profitability. I applied these concepts when I started trading in the Monaco Treasure APP. It did not take long for me to find out that if the stock trade was trading on time frames of less than three months, decisions based on such analysis would not be feasible. I did not want to buy stocks to benefit only from dividend payments because I wanted to trade for capital gains.
I was dissatisfied with the knowledge, tools and methods I used in trading the markets. With my desire to trade on time frames for less than three months and my firm belief that sentiment is heavily affecting trade, I started looking for other ways to buy and sell shares.
I went back to the textbooks I had studied at the university. I wanted to know other ways to analyze financial markets. During my trip I read and learned that one can analyze markets in one of two ways: fundamental analysis and technical analysis.
When I read a newspaper once I came across a declaration about a trade seminar. While reading this ad I saw these words: Technical Analysis. One of the expert traders would talk specifically about the subject I was interested in learning. The seminar was free and was welcome to anyone to attend. So I called one of my friends and asked him if he wanted to attend this seminar, and already agreed.
The seminar was organized by one of the companies involved in the sale of courses related to trade: courses to teach how to trade the stock market. When we arrived, we were taken to a small room. About 30 people were present. The speaker appeared to be a veteran trader and had previously published two books on trade. Let's call it Pu'er For the purposes of this article, Pu'er had a strong presence and was a huge man with a tall corpse and a curly head.
I sat on one of the seats in the front rows trying to listen and understand every word spoken by this man. His lessons were planted within the seed that eventually helped me grow to be a trader over the years. Many times I heard his voice in my mind remind me of the lessons I learned from his books and the lessons I learned from him on this day. I will try to count the lessons I learned from this man to help you in the same way he helped me.
This man attracted my attention from the very first moment. "The stock market is a game where people try to steal money from each other." This is the goal of the game, a legal goal anyway: I wondered what Wall Street experts would think if they heard that guy. .
"If you're going to join this game, you basically get the permission to grab the money of the other people and in return you will not be afraid to take your money if they can. Do not forget that you are in this world will play with a group of the most brilliant traders. So, if you go to war to fight an enemy with real weapons it will be better to make sure you do not go and you only have a plastic gun. "
Pu'er mentioned that many people rush to the markets to lose their money. The phrase seemed funny but I saw that it actually reflected the only result one can draw when most people see starting trading without sufficient preparation and without educating themselves. Of course, most of us do not open a deal in the hope of losing their money; however, this is exactly what they do when they are Monaco Treasure APP Trading without sufficient willingness.
Most people know they need training before they can pilot a plane or have an operation, but I do not know why they think that making money from the trade is not easy. Is so easy: he looked very emotional at this point.
"Trade is difficult," Van said. Only about 5 percent of people know how to trade profitably. So the likelihood of finding someone else who knows what they are doing seems very slim. Do not just rely on the advice of your broker, your account manager, or anyone else. The only hope of success is to know yourself and the better you do, the more likely you are to succeed.
Boer also said, "When it comes to buying and selling stocks, there is no such thing as investment." People usually refer to the concept of investing as a long-term trade: For me, when people keep their investments for five years or more with the intention of selling them later, They actually do trade: but in the long run.
"Do not buy stocks just to take advantage of the payments you receive from dividends. They only offer trivial amounts," he said. "Trading just to make money from capital gains." "Buy from bottoms and sell at the top and that's the way to make profits."
In this period, I was puzzled about the concepts of short term trading or long term investment. I did not know if I would take the right approach to try to make short-term profits. Boer was strongly stressed when he was exposed to the issue.
We asked the guy if we knew what drove prices up or down. I remembered what my university teacher told me and I answered that the price moves up and down close to the fair value of the share.
He turned his attention to and asked me, "What is the arrow I am trading?" XYZ
(I changed the arrow name for the purposes of this article), I responded with great happiness. I thought he would probably press him for a tip or two of him about this stock.
Pu'er asked me and you know what the fair value of XYZ is.
I put my head aside and said, No.
He surprised me when he said I'll tell you what XYZ values are: zero !!
I was surprised by his answer. Zero? So what do we pay for when we buy this stock? Then the man clarified his idea.
"Price is just a perception" – is to imagine people about what they think about the value to which the stock price should be.
"The key to success in trade is psychology," he added. psychology ? I thought about it. How does psychology enter into this? . The stock market looks like a poll. It is a measure of what people expect about what will happen. If they think that the price of the stock will move up, you will see a bullish movement on the chart because there are a larger number of buyers and then sellers are raising the price because some of these buyers will accept the purchase at higher prices, "Boer explained.
Use an example to explain the investor's typical behavior when trading without a system. As I explained, I realized that my own business behavior was similar to what he said.
It seemed to me. When I bought and sold the stock I was asking about the quality of the people sitting on the other side of the deal because they seemed to me to be very smart. Now I know . They are people like Boer who were on the other end of these transactions doing exactly the opposite of what I use methods similar to the one he was mentioning. They were looking at the price of the stock according to the approach and philosophy is quite strange to me. Traders like Boer were making all the profits while traders like me were the losers.
I shook my head when I realized there were other people thinking that way. I was thrilled to learn that there was another alternative and a different approach that I could use to analyze markets.
What you really need is to develop your trading system. He shouted at everyone. "Without a trading system, you will fail, I guarantee you this." This trading system should be something designed for you and for yourself. Even if I give you my system in circulation, I'm sure you will fail to make any profits because this system was not designed for you, but rather I am. That's why you need to learn how to use the tools and possess the skills needed to become a trader.
I accepted his advice without fully understanding the concept that the trading system is appropriate for the private trader's personality. This has stayed in my mind for a long time. The wisdom I found in his advice remained stuck in my mind when I decided to learn more about the nature of trading.
Boer turned our attention towards the graphs on the screen of the laptop. All I saw was lines, curves, rectangular boxes and more jagged lines. Professional Rolling Tools: I thought that at the moment I see the tools used by my opponents in the market in order to defeat me all the time. My heart was beating faster than usual and I felt a great dread. I wanted to get these tools.
Boer was asked about the trading platform he uses to analyze markets. Tell me already. I also asked him about the number of indicators he uses. At this time I have read enough about technical analysis to the extent that I can see that technical analysts are using indicators in stock price analysis. There were many indicators to choose from, so I wanted to know the number of indicators used by professional traders. Start up his fingers then said "seven."
I think that many people in this lecture did not read enough about the basic analysis, but at this time I had read enough about him and that's why I was almost the only person who was involved in talking to him and asking questions. Art has gained more knowledge and wisdom and the man was already willing to give me what I wanted.
After that, I heard one of the most important lessons I learned from him about how to reduce my losses during my first years in trade: "Trading very little to the point where you consider it a waste of time, I suppose the next deal will be the first of a thousand of your deals. Your life. Even though your profits will be lower, your losses will be less, too, so there is no need to hurry. Do not rush to become rich very quickly. "
Men were advised novices like me that they should trade through deals of small size. This means that you buy a few stocks at first. I was fascinated by what he said. I never knew before that a person should trade in this limited manner.
In the end, the seminar ended. I took the brochures and pamphlets given to us by some staff. In one of these releases was the name of the program he uses. They were selling the program with some of the courses they offered. I could not afford the full package but I realized I had to buy the program that Boer was using. I decided to learn as much as I could about how to use charts and charts to analyze the market and saw that I needed to develop my Monaco Treasure APP Trading system.
For my friend he said he had a car loan that he should pay attention to first and he would think about stock trading later or when he could save some money for it.
A few days later, I received a call from the organizer of the seminar telling me that based on the questions I was asking tonight, they thought I was the person who could make the most of this package. Boer was asked to clarify the need for the importance of learning trade because he has the ability to trade in markets. Because of this he was able to sell the courses well. Pu'er looked someone with experience and knowledge. He managed to illuminate the path for me and many others in this room about the much to learn. I bought some of these booklets but I did not have the ability to buy the entire package despite my need for it so I asked the salesperson on the other end of the line whether I could work for them in return for this course.
I could not get this course but I bought the program from another distributor at a cheaper price. I also bought two books that Boer understood. I discovered that I could possess skills and wisdom through self-education. I learned a lot from these two manuals and from the use of the program. I considered that the opportunity to attend such a seminar was a "gift from heaven" to me. Whenever I was Pu'er, I thank you. You – and others like you – _ made me know its value transfer knowledge and experience to others so they can benefit from it.

- Premier League
Vermaelen: I still have Arsenal future
Arsenal captain Thomas Vermaelen is sure he still has a future at the club, despite having found himself on the substitutes' bench for the majority of the season.
Vermaelen, 27, made his first Premier League start of the campaign for Arsenal in Sunday's 1-0 defeat at Manchester United as he partnered Laurent Koscielny in the centre of defence.
His chance, though, only came about after Per Mertesacker picked up a sickness bug just before the game. However, Vermaelen insists he still has a role to play for Arsene Wenger's side this term.
"I'm still confident I can play for this club," he said. "I keep reading stories that I want to leave. But that's not the case. I'm still focused on the team. I am always positive.
"In any case, it is not about my situation. It's what the team do and I am really happy that we're top of the league."
Robin van Persie once again scored against his former club, as Arsenal saw their lead at the top of the Premier League slip from five points to two.
Vermaelen did not feel that his own late inclusion in the team had a negative impact, however, as he said he was fully prepared to play anyway.
"It wasn't hard. I go into every game ready to play. I always make sure I'm mentally ready and physically ready to play, so it wasn't difficult," he said.
"I knew it could happen at any moment so I'm always ready. I've been saying it for weeks and months and all of a sudden it happened."

Tips and Tricks for Searching Databases [top]
Look for a "Help" command somewhere at the site. It shows you how to search more effectively at that site.
When doing 'keyword' searches:
- Use the connector 'AND' between your search terms unless you are searching a phrase (i.e. search for "violence AND television" or the phrase "Tibetan buddhism")
- Use a truncation symbol (usually * ) to search for all forms of a word (i.e. type photograph* to search for photograph, photographs, photography and photographers – all at the same time)
- Try using different words for the same subject and search them together with 'OR' in the middle (i.e. pharmacy OR drugstore)
If you find too little, try broadening your search in one of the following ways:
- Remove one of the words from your search. If you are using too many terms, you might be restricting the search too much.
- Look for misspellings in the terms you have entered.
- Change one of the terms to a broader term. For example, replace "peer counseling" with "counseling."
- Change an acronym to the full name of an organization. For example, replace "NAPWA" with "National Association of People with AIDS."
If you find too much – try narrowing your search in one of the following ways:
- Make your wording more specific. For example, use "navy fighters" instead of "military aircraft."
- Add another word. For example, if you are searching for the word "baseball," you are likely to find too many results. Limit the search by entering another word to your search, i.e. search "coaching baseball."

NME Shockwaves Tour 2006
Tickets on sale tomorrow morning.
Anyone wanting to go better think about setting up no wanted etc now, as Arctic Monkeys are rumoured to be headlining and therefore the tickets will sell out in minutes.
0870 1 663 663 / NME.com
Rumoured bands:
Mystery Jets
We Are Scientists
Maximo Park
AM/Editors in London
do i look bovvered?
heard it on the grapevine..
that it will be a co-headline spot for Maximo Park and Arctic Monkeys, it will still sell out in seconds like
"do i look bovvered?" is actually the worst 'comic' catchphrase i have ever heard in my life.
Death to that stupid ginger bint.
I think its pretty decent, its such a great commentry on gobby teenagers.
a line up to end your life to - the very fact that its sponsored by gel would make any sensible person get a Number 1 all over
about it at nme.com
The sponsored by a hairgel thing really doesn't do anything for the credibility of the NME doesn't it...
*does it
you can
get tickets right now if you go to the student guide and it's got your city in it.
was last year too
not news.
also: do people think you turn up to these gigs and are bombarded with NME propaganda or something? its a bunch of bands at a show.
it actually says more for where the NME/its editor's priorities lie nowadays than you'd think to be honest
and anyway, NME-reading fans of yer fave haircut hype bands need to keep their pretty hairdos together while rocking out to the sounds of '96 revisited innit
for that :-)
weird that they aren't making a big deal on the front page though
be warned!
i got tickets for, er, a friend, yeah thats it... and put through 2 orders, and they both came up with a screen saying 'your order was unsuccessful', then 10 minutes later i got 2 confirmation emails through!
does this legitimise me to put a pair on ebay ;)
That happened to me too...
...good job I used the credit card.
(Before anyone asks, have sold the spare pair for face value to a colleague)
seven of the dates are sold out already.
It should be the same as last year...
...that is, a small pre-allocation, then the main sale in a week's time. But you'll need to be really quick when that happens.
Welcome, ex_cynic!
4 cunts (already) on eBay selling tickets for this
it is a sad world. obviously much worse things go on than this but I feel that fucking touts are symptomatic of a deeper malaise.
i know
the only way to get rid of touting, is to not buy touted tickets.
the bands still get their money, you keep your cash, but see no bands.
the glasto system is best for anti tout measures, but i can't see that working for a theatre tour.
Saddest thing is....
that the aforementioned cunts probably got their tickets direct from the artists themselves or the record label, which is where the majority of touted tickets come from.
Line Up
Your rumoured line up is nearly right!
It actually is:
We Are Scientists
Dirty Pretty Things (Carl's new band)
Maximo Park
Arctic Monkeys
Not a bad night out I guess!
How do you know the line-up?
I didn't think it was announced yet.
mystery jets
are almost certainly playing.
meh, i'll get my MJ action on friday.
I didn't bother gonig for tickets for the NME thing as i kinda dreaded the constant banter MJ would have received from little girls who worship Maximo Park, something along the lines of:
"is.....that.....a saucepan?! LOLOLOL"
Dirty pretty things would have been pretty sweet to see though.
and double meh in past years this tour has hit newcastle at northumbira uni which means you can buy tickets from the steel of wheels and a variety of local shops. But this year the academy has got the nod so it's hotline only :(
question is why do Maximo Park want to play the same venues they've just played, they're sold out the academy on the 10th december already, you'd have thought they might get the message that yeah they're good but it's getting a bit dull now.
...a few upstairs tickets now appear to be on sale for Brixton Academy...
Hald on
I'm sure it says most tickets go on sale November 30th?
The thing the other day was just a special presale thing, I believe.
I'm going without a doubt.

Reduced federal government construction budgets are likely to mean agencies will favor rehab of structures over new construction. The federal government spent $39.4 billion on construction in 2010, but will slash that amount by $2 billion in 2012, according to the Obama administration's proposed budget.
Federal spending on architecture and engineering services will see modest growth to $9.5 billion in 2016 from $8.1 billion this year, as agencies try to extend the life of existing buildings and comply with various mandates for energy efficiency, data consolidation, physical security, and teleworking, according to a report by Deltek Inc.

Primrose Close
Silently, they stopped to stare,
At the freak with raven hair,
His eyes rings of Dante black,
Angry looks burnt through his back.
Strange black clothes flapped in the air.
Flying back to darkened lair.
Primrose Close, closed its eyes,
Abnormals were despised.
Close people; pillars of good,
Bedrock, of their neighbourhood.
They must be rid of this thing,
It was either Close or Him.
Nice rose woman grew flowers,
Tending garden for hours,
Poor old woman left alone,
Husband ran away from home;
Roses blossomed pink and red.
Left no trace where husband bled…
City Banker, number One,
Works in cat shelter for fun.
Brings home strays of the City.
Model of care and pity.
Fur coats are her only vice,
Never wears the same one twice.
Number four is Dr Pace
White coat and a kindly face.
Some patients give him pleasure
He enjoys them at leisure.
Watching limbs lying twitching.
In glass jars in his kitchen…
Hidden in the smallest nook.
Shy, school teacher ticks his book.
Enslaved with education
Spends evenings on Chat Nation
Befriends lonely teenage girls,
Loves the ones with Mommy's curls.
Freak flew home, the Close stood still.
Silent curses of ill will.
Hidden in his bedroom lair,
No one saw his hungry stare.
White collars bored him to tears.
Blank people with stagnant fears.
The loathing ripped through his heart.
Close and him were far apart.
They would never feel his need,
Watching Normals' fear and bleed.
Deathly pale and feeling ill
Slunk out silently to kill.

Yesterday was a big day in our Hornsea Pottery calendar, the AGM on hallowed turf at Hornsea, which interestingly fell 15 years to the day that Hornsea Pottery went into final receivership.
Our meeting and talk was very interesting, lovely to catch up with people who I only see once a year as it's difficult to get to the other 3 yearly meetings they have scattered around the country.
The stalls were brimming with pots for sale, I'm sure there was more than last year, or may be more of the designs which I liked this time.
Loads of Contrast which I like and still use. I was wanting a particular mini soup tureen but no one had one.
A wonderful stack of Heirloom storage jars.
Below, the lovely white teapot in the middle was called Alaska, it is sort of a white version of the brown Contrast design.
If only I was starting my own coffee shop! Many many different espresso sets. This design I hadn't seen before called Prelude in a dull minty green and brown.
Lots more things than usual in the auction, below.
So what did I buy, well, I got this wonderful 1977 mug by John Clappison for £1 on the auction, they sell for lots more on Ebay so I was very pleased. It will a be a birthday pressie for a Scorpio.
I also found just one Concept espresso cup with saucers, this was good because I already have one cup and no saucers, so it is useable now for coffee and a piece of cake for two.
And finally, this was rather unusual and irresistible to me as it was very minimal and stylish.
These plates and bowls in a wave/cell shape were designed by Caterina Fadda in the late 90s, she commissioned Hornsea Pottery to produce them for her so I'm happy to say these design icons which broke the mould in plate design were made in Hornsea. The museum had purchased them some time ago and were selling them to raise funds as they had duplicates.
I bought a combination of the black and white. They will be fabulous for serving a tapas style meal with bits 'n pieces on the side.
Caterina has a London studio with furniture and other stylish designer items for the home.
Thank you if you made it this far, I do tend to get carried away with Hornsea pots!

GORHAM — It was 2:30 p.m. on a cold windy Friday afternoon, but the new tasting room at Sebago Brewing Co. was already packed.
The 30,000-square-foot new construction at 616 Main St., west of downtown, is the culmination of a lot of hard work over the company's 20-year history, said Kai Adams, vice president and cofounder. Other founders are President Brad Monarch and Treasurer Tim Haines.
The site, which also houses Sebago Brewing's headquarters, is on a 258-acre parcel Shaw Brothers Family Foundation bought from ecomaine for $1.75 million in March 2016.
Two-thirds of the two-story building holds the brewery. The rest — about 6,000 square feet — is a tasting room, with woodfire kitchen, as well as Sebago's offices. There is also a patio for outdoor drinking and dining.
Sebago added about 35 employees when the tasting room and brewer opened Feb. 27 and now has 225 employees company-wide.
The top question Adams and others at Sebago gets asked is whether the Sebago Brewing brewpub restaurant in downtown Gorham will close because of the new tasting room.
"It's absolutely not," he said. "It does really well and it's a community hub."
Gorham is "a great beer town," Adams added.
The brewery is on six acres of land that the Shaw Brothers Family Foundation is developing into a recreation and working farm space. Four parcels along Route 25 are set aside for business use, with the brewery being the first.
The location is ideal for the Sebago Brewing.
It is directly across the street from Nappi Distributors, which distributes Sebago products.
Route 25 — Main Street in Gorham — connects Portland to Westbrook, Gorham, southwestern Maine and New Hampshire's eastern Ossipee region.
Some 27,000 cars a day go past the site, Adams said.
And the company wanted to stay in Gorham, where not only does the downtown brew pub do well, but town officials have been welcoming since it opened 17 years ago.
"This town is a great place to do business," Adams said.
Sebago has had a brewery in the Gorham since 2005, starting with 8,000 square feet in the Gorham Industrial Park. But even after adding 5,000 square feet, the company needed more room.
Sebago sold 13,000 barrels of beer last year; its goal is to sell 17,000 this year.
The new space has 30% more brewing capacity that the industrial park building, with plenty of room to grow.
Adams said, though, the company is not focused on growth for growth's sake, but wants quality growth.
Sebago has the luxury to set its own pace and make additions when the time is right.
"It hasn't always been that way," he said. "We struggled for years."
The vision for the new site was to have a "destination brewery," he said.
"We'd have people come, take the tour, hang on the lawn and have some beer," he said.
The brewery and tasting room capitalizes on the state's thriving beer tourism industry. "The Maine beer bus and [craft brew] tourism is the connective tissue of the industry," he said.
Adams, who's vice president of the Maine Brewers' Guild, said the organization's mission it to make Maine the top craft beer destination in the country.
Pointing to Sebago Brewing's four brew pubs — in Gorham, Portland, Scarborough and Kennebunk — he said the goal for the tasting room was to be "less pubby" and to be more "all about the beer."
The menu includes wood-fired pizza, small plates and limited entrees, including "fun and unique items sourced as locally as we can get," he added.
The craft brewing industry has changed a lot in the 20 years since he and Monarch started Sebago. "There were 18 craft breweries when we started," Adams said. "Now there are 112 ... The consumers have matured. They know great beer."
The non-brewing portion of the building has occupancy for 192 and, while that includes office occupancy, most of it will be devoted to the tasting room.
Most of those seats were filled Friday, and Adams was thrilled. He said they had high hopes, but business was more brisk than expected.
"We've only been open four days," he said.
The crowd was diverse — a mix of young drinkers and old, men and woman, people in business suits, construction gear and jeans and flannel.
"I can't say enough about the staff," he added, watching waitstaff and bartenders handle the constant flow of customers.
The 16 beers on tap are part of the draw, Adams said. The tasting room is designed to showcase what the company does best.
But he and his partners also wanted to make sure it was a fun place to come.
"It took us 20 years to get here," he said as he watched more people come through the door Friday. "But it's not just about being bigger, it's about being better, and serving high-quality beer."

(Click for video linked to a searchable transcript of this Mad Money segment)
Sometimes skepticism feeds into itself. When it happens the Street can forget to properly weigh to fundamentals; instead it trades a stock on sentiment.
A shrewd investor can make a lot of money in that kind of environment.
Best Buy
"You remember the rap," Cramer said. "Best Buy was simply the showroom for Amazon. Best Buy was going to go the way of the book stores. Best Buy was a dinosaur akin to video rental stores."
As it turned out that thesis was dead wrong.
The video game cycle combined with a modest improvement in the economy have given sales a boost. But perhaps more important, "Best Buy has closed stores," Cramer added. "They've gotten leaner and meaner by implementing aggressive new cost controls. And they've improved customer service significantly."
These and other catalysts caught skeptics off guard. Shares ofBest Buy have rallied well over 200% year to date.
The advance illustrates something Cramer often says, ultimately fundamentals should move a stock and in the case of Best Buy the negative Street chatter didn't properly factor in the improving fundamentals.

LAFAYETTE, La. – Friday was thrice as nice for an Acadiana couple.
Paige Broussard, 22, of Arnaudville and her fiancé, Paul Brown Jr., 25, of Lafayette welcomed triplets just before 7:30 a.m. Friday at Women's & Children's Hospital.
"It was time," Broussard said with a weary smile later in the day. "We're still trying to figure out how we are going to fit three changing tables, three cribs and other things we will need in one room. We already have diapers stacked up to the ceiling."
Brylon Brown was born at 7:27 a.m. weighing 4 pounds 14 ounces. He was followed one minute later by Braylon, who weighed 4 pounds 15 ounces. And, sister Brylee followed at 7:29 a.m. weighing in at 4 pounds 6 ounces.
The triplets were born premature at 34 weeks of gestation, just three weeks shy of being full term. Brylon and Braylon are identical twins, meaning they developed from a single fertilized egg. Broussard said she learned she was having triplets on Oct. 27.
"When we found out, it was the scariest thing in the world," said Linda Broussard, Paige Broussard's aunt. "Then, they put her on bed rest for most of her pregnancy. It all worked out. The family already set up schedules to help her take care of them."
The triplets join older brother, Brennan Brown, 2. Asked if the couple would have more children, Broussard immediately responded, "Oh, no. That was it. I have three boys now and one baby girl. I have my family."

Coming down heavily on Prime Minister Narendra Modi for his 'unusual silence' over the critical situation in Mandsaur following the farmers agitation, the Congress Party on Wednesday said that the ruling regime has acted like a 'curse of death of the Indian farmers'.
"BJP has almost acting like a curse of death of the Indian farmers, literally not figuratively. On one hand the farmer are toiling and on the other hand BJP is killing or opening fire upon the sons of the soil," Congress spokesperson Abhishek Manu Singhvi said in a press briefing here.
Singhvi said that the farmers were demanding relief from their debts and better crop prices, but BJP in return took away their lives.
"What was sad was not the death and opening for fire in Mandsaur, what was insulting and sad was the complete denial by Madhya Pradesh Government and if it would not be tragic it would be amusing. The denial was that there was no firing at all, as if the firing was from the sky or was from the ground," he said.
He even questioned the purposes of suspending the internet service in the region and said the BJP is less concerned about the grief of the farmers and more worried about media management.
"They even suspended the internet. That is what they are doing they are not listening to their demand have turned into a deaf ear, it is not giving a healing touch. It is preventing communication ," he said.
Singhvi further said that the NAMO policy of the BJP government stands for 'No agriculture mal-governance only'.
Earlier on Tuesday, during an agitation, five farmers, who were demanding fair price and loan waiver, were killed and several others were injured in the firing by security forces.
Internet services in Mandsaur, Ratlam, Neemuch and Ujjain remain suspended following the farmers' protests, and a curfew has also reportedly been imposed.
Taking cognizance of the situation, Chouhan appealed for peace to the agitating farmers in the state and also announced a compensation of Rs. one crore to the kin of those killed in the violence.
"In the past 11 years, there have been countless decisions made for the welfare of farmers. The various demands of the farmers have been fulfilled. I offer my condolences to the victims of Mandsaur incident. Rs. one crore will be given to the kin of the deceased and Rs. five lakh for those injured," the Chief Minister said, adding that the state government is ready to come out with a solution through communication," he said.

This beautiful Large Siberian Purple Laboratory Quartz Magician Stone crystal pendant is of exceptional quality, both in the style of the stone and in the simple silver band setting which allows the stone to breathe and function at its highest vibration. This pendant comes with a simple sterling silver chain which will sit upon the thymus, between the throat heart chakra, where it will be of most beneficial resonance.
Siberian Purple Quartz exhibits an energy signature very similar to the highest grade of gemstone quality amethyst, resonating with the purple-violet coloration of the third eye and crown chakras. Siberian Purple Amethyst resonates with the Violet Flame of Purification, which is used in many meditation practices designed to quicken the Ascension process.
We often recommend that our Reiki and past life therapy clients wear crystals or gemstones for protection, especially clear quartz which contains all colors of the spectrum and works on all the bodies: physical, mental and emotional.
The Radiant Heart pendant is a powerful design from the creators of the Flower of Life and Magician Stone pendants, who call it an "evolutionary tool to assist us in expanding our ability to hold and create Unconditional Love, so that we too may 'crystallize' the wisdom of the One Heart that unites all life in Love."
The Radiant Heart pendant resembles a crystal lotus whose myriad flower petals hold and reflect brilliant light, giving the stone the appearance of a kaleidoscope.
Properties of Siberian Purple Quartz
This lab quartz is grown in Russia and according to the jeweler who created it, it enhances psychic insight and development. This pendant will be a great tool for meditation and any subtle energy work.
Siberian Purple Quartz is grown using a hydrothermal technique in a high temperature autoclave from a natural seed crystal. The laboratory method for producing quartz crystals mimics Nature's way of growing quartz crystals, using high temperature and high pressure water solutions. In a bit of modern-day alchemy, scientists add mineral impurities to the alkaline solution (often Sodium Hydroxide) that feeds the crystal's growth in the autoclave to create crystals with beautiful colors and energy signatures resonating with the power of the mineral additives.
Siberian Purple Quartz is created by the addition of minerals to the liquid mixture that feeds the seed crystal's growth in the laboratory. The addition of minerals such as Iron and Manganese imparts an amazing deep purple coloration to the quartz crystal, which is what creates the beautiful violet to purple spectrum associated with natural amethyst crystals.
Siberian Purple Quartz can be used for psychic protection as well as assisting us in purifying the body, mind, and heart of all kinds of negative energies, energy blockages and mistaken mental maps of the world.
Siberian Purple Quartz exhibits an energy signature very similar to the highest grade of gemstone quality amethyst, resonating with the purple-violet coloration of the third eye and crown chakras. Siberian Purple Amethyst resonates with the Violet Flame of Purification, which is used in many meditation practices designed to quicken the Ascension process.
Siberian Purple Quartz activates the crown chakra and because of its resonance with the third eye chakra, also provides the user with increased access to the akashic records, the energetic templates containing the patterns of perfection that govern the birth, growth and development of the human body (the microcosm) and the universe (the macrocosm). The development of clairvoyance, associated with the opening of the Third Eye Chakra, is enhanced by this increased access to the Akashic Records.
The color violet is associated with the crown chakra in the Western chakra system, and so this extremely bright purple Siberian Quartz is said by crystal healers to activate and energize the crown chakra, connecting the bearer to Higher Mind, Higher Realms and inner spiritual guidance from extremely elevated and reliable Sources.
In the pantheon of modern day New Age Guides and Teachers, the Count Saint Germain is called "The World Teacher" and "The Master of the Violet Ray" and is thought to communicate mind-to-mind with many, many students around the world.
Stones with a violet or purple hue are associated with St. Germain, and resonate with the energy signature of the Violet Flame.
There is thought to be a large contingent of his students alive today in the United States, the center of modern Empire, just as Paris was the center of European Empire at the time of St. Germain.
Many New Age students of St. Germain utilize crystals and gemstones in their spiritual practice, for healing and in meditation, in a modern alchemical quest for Higher Self, Higher Mind and Higher Purpose. Modern New Age practice encompasses a belief in the theory of karma and reincarnation. The belief in reincarnation has its roots in the Hindu and Egyptian Mystery School traditions, and is fundamental to the Greek Mystery School Tradition of the pre-Socratic philosophers.
New Age students of the Ancient Wisdom Teachings often utilize crystals and gemstones, along with meditation techniques, Reiki and past life regression therapy to access memories of past lives, and to release the detrimental patterns of behavior, negative emotions and outmoded mental maps of the world imprinted in our cells, our hearts, our minds and our karma from traumas experienced aeons ago.
Many of these modern acolytes of the Great Alchemist utilize crystals and gemstones thought to resonate with the energy vibration of the Violet Ray, which is said to be used under the guidance of St. Germain for purification and to raise the kundalini energy in a quest for Unity Consciousness.
You can read more about crystals in our article "Using Quartz Crystals in Digital Technology, Healing and Meditation"or you can read about Marcel Vogel and crystal healing in that article.
This crystal has been cleaned and charged with Universal Life Force Energy, and given an energetic attunement using Reiki, a Japanese technique of energy healing so it will continue to channel and transmit Universal Life Force Energy direct from the Source of Creation. It has also been cleaned and charged with the natural energy of sunlight. It is ready for you to program according to your own needs and desires.
We know you will use this powerful crystal with loving care and respect its long evolutionary journey deep in the Earth, which has developed its unique metaphysical properties and beautiful appearance.

Asia's premier destination triathlon celebrates iconic endurance event's 20th anniversary.The 20th Laguna Phuket Triathlon will take place on Sunday 24 November, marking the beginning of Laguna Phuket's week long Tri-Fest.
This year's Laguna Phuket Triathlon (LPT) will celebrates its 20th Anniversary while welcoming inaugural Challenge Laguna Phuket (CLP) on Sunday 1 December to its iconic multi-sports weeklong event "Challenge Laguna Phuket Tri-Fest 2013"
During the proceeding seven days, Laguna Phuket will be a hive of activity, with athletes and guests taking part in social activities, training sessions and competitions at the destination resort.
The atmosphere will be electric and guests and visitors will enjoy what Laguna, and indeed Phuket, has to offer.
On Sunday 1 December, athletes will race in the Challenge Laguna Phuket – a longer, more challenging triathlon, comprising a 1.9K Swim, 90.1K Bike ride and a 21.1K Run.
The Race of Legends
The days between the two spectacular events in Phuket will be filled with a Tri-Fest of training and social events held in and around the luxurious Laguna Phuket destination resort.
This triathlon carnival has proved a popular attraction for international athletes eager to sample the delights of Thailand while rubbing shoulders with the likes of Ruedi Wild and Radka Vodickova, last year's Laguna Phuket Triathlon champions.
Ruedi Wild triumphed at Laguna Phuket last year in 2:29.22. Following Wild home were an elite field of seasoned athletes including Tim Meyer, Alberto Cassadei, Massimo Cigana, and Simon Agoston.
The 2012 women's field top finishers were Radka Vodickova, Belinda Granger, Edith Niederfringer, Nickey Barnard, and Sarah Wheeler.
In the Challenge Laguna Phuket, 2012 Champion Melissa Hauschildt of Australia – has registered to return to defend her title. She's set to face strong challenges from a field that will include Vodickova and Granger, who finished second and third respectively last year.
LPT and Challenge Laguna Phuket are once again set to see high-calibre fields of elite men's pros taking on their tropical challenges.
Reigning World Champion Pete "PJ" Jacobs has confirmed he will race the inaugural Challenge Laguna Phuket half distance triathlon on 1 December – setting up an intriguing contest with fellow Australian Chris "Macca" McCormack, the defending title-holder, two-time World Champion, and Challenge Ambassador, for a slice of the race's 25,000 Euro prize purse.
Italians Massimo Cigana and Alberto Casadei will try to make an impression on the two Australian champions in a filed that also features Laguna Phuket Triathlon 2012 champion Ruedi Wild from Switzerland.
The enduring appeal of Laguna Phuket Triathlon and the unique challenges of Challenge Laguna Phuket are attracting entries from leading international pro athlete personalities, as well as age groupers worldwide.
To date, a combined 1,500 athletes have signed up for the two main races. Registration for the 2013 half distance Challenge Laguna Phuket is open until 20 November and total of approximately 1,800 athletes are expected to sign up this year.
This Year Fundraiser
For many years, athletes booking their slots in Laguna Phuket's sports events are being asked to raise funds through donations and sponsorships for the resort's long established "Laguna Phuket Foundation" aimed at collecting THB 1 million per year to operate its various charitable programmes.
Established in 2009, Laguna Phuket Foundation supports educational and social development, marine and natural environmental conservation, and emergency relief.
The Foundation's initiatives include the Developing Sustainable Schools Programme which consists of Laguna Phuket's "Fully Booked!" Mobile Learning Centre, Survival Swim program, and School Partnership Project.
In previous years, athletes from Thailand and all over the world have raised millions of baht to fund several school rebuilding programmes through Laguna Phuket series of sports events.
Last year, over THB 1 million was raised by athletes for Laguna Phuket's "Fully Booked!" Mobile Learning Centre. Aiming to provide alternative learning resources for children from kindergarten to primary school ages and their teachers in rural areas of Phuket and Phang Nga province for a five-year period, the project is currently scheduled to commence early next year.
This year's goal is to raise THB 500,000 to support Foundation initiatives. Athletes can make donations via online event registration and at the donation booth at the event.
Legends behind the Legends
Laguna Phuket takes ultimate pride in the reputation its two triathlons have earned over the years and the charities and communities they have helped support.
The events' loyal sponsors – the Government of Phuket Province, the Tourism Authority of Thailand and Thai Airways International – have been instrumental to their success.
"The two Laguna Phuket's triathlons are recognised as being organised at one of the best destinations," said Phuket Governor Maitri Inthusut "especially the 20-years-standing Laguna Phuket Triathlon which I consider the success of Laguna Phuket and the pride of Phuket Province."
TAT agreed "Laguna Phuket's triathlon series attract thousands of athletes and followers worldwide to Phuket. This has proven Laguna Phuket's success in sport tourism, one of the fastest-growing segments in tourism industry," said Mr. Sugree Sithivanich, Deputy Governor for Marketing Communications, TAT.
Mr. Suvadhana Sibunruang, TG's Director Brand Management and Commercial Communications, said "Congratulations to Laguna Phuket and Phuket Province on the 20th anniversary of Laguna Phuket Triathlon! Thai Airways is pleased to offer 15kgs excess baggage allowance exclusively for athletes booking online at www.challengelagunaphuket.com"

Professional snowboarder Gretchen Bleiler recently joined fitness blogger Lindsay Tredent, of FitandAwesome.com, for the Ultimate #MORE SoCal Day Twitter Party. Afterwards, we checked in with her to learn about her must-have apps.
- Camera+ – I love Instagram but first I use Camera+ to get the right mood for my pics through all of the app's amazing scenes and filters, and then I Instagram it!
- NPR News – I love NPR news and love listening to "Radiolab" and "TED Talk Hour." I drive back and forth between California and Colorado all of the time, and when I drive with my husband and my dog, we listen to different episodes. It's the perfect content to fill our minds!
- Oakley Surf Report – This is just a great app that I use to get info on the surf conditions. I live in SoCal and surf all around the area, and this app gives me details on all of my favorite local surf spots, including the tide report, wind direction and surf size.
- Path – This social network and messaging app is a great way for me to connect and share all of my adventures and photos of my travels with specifically my family and close friends. It's similar to other social networking apps, but you can customize it with your "inner circle" so you can select what you share and with whom.
- The Weather Channel – I'm always traveling around the world for different opportunities, snowboarding competitions and training camps. I need to know the temps and conditions so I can pack appropriately because sometimes I'm gone for months at a time. One of my last trips I needed to pack for a palace visit in Monaco, touring around Paris, and then straight to New Hampshire for a weekend of snowboarding! This app helps me figure it all out.
What are your favorite apps? Let us know on Twitter at @VZWnews or @VZWSharon.
This is part of the Verizon Wireless "Must-have Apps" series, which provides insights into the apps that people use every day to embrace the mobile lifestyle.
