Jeff is dying. Haunted by memories and grappling with the shame of his desires, he runs away to remote Scotland with a piece of experimental tech that allows him to enter the mind of someone in the past. Instructed to only use it three times, Jeff – self-indulgent, isolated and deteriorating – ignores this advice.
In the late 1860s, Leonora lives a contented life in the Scottish Highlands, surrounded by nature, her hands and mind kept busy. Contemplating her future and the social conventions that bind her, a secret romantic friendship with the local laird is interrupted when her father sends her to stay with her aunt in Edinburgh – an intimidating, sooty city; the place where her mother perished.
But Leonora's ability to embrace her new life is shadowed by a dark presence that begins to lurk behind her eyes, and strange visions that bear no resemblance to anything she has ever seen or known…
A Superior Spectre is a highly accomplished debut novel about our capacity for curiosity, and our dangerous entitlement to it, and reminds us the scariest ghosts aren't those that go bump in the night, but those that are born and create a place for themselves in the human soul.
About the Author
Angela Meyer's writing has been widely published, including in Best Australian Stories, Island, The Big Issue, The Australian, The Lifted Brow and Killings . She has previously published a book of flash fiction, Captives (Inkerman & Blunt). She has worked in bookstores, as a book reviewer, in a whisky bar, and for the past few years has published a range of Australian authors for Echo Publishing, including award-winners and an international number one bestseller. She grew up in Northern NSW and lives in Melbourne. A Superior Spectre is her debut novel.
I've never read a story like it, and absolutely loved every moment. Thank you Ms Meyer!!
A Superior Spectre is the first novel by Australian publisher and author, Angela Meyer. In the Highlands of Scotland in the mid-nineteenth century, young Leonora Duncan is content with her life in her father's small village, Chapeltown. She loves animals, learning about them from Mr Anderson, while their laird, William Wink is kind, a man disinclined to clear his tenants for more profitable crops. Her only worry is that her loving father does not seem content with this future, deciding to send her to Edinburgh in the hope of attracting a better husband. Perhaps two hundred years later, Jeff has received an unfavourable diagnosis, one that will mean surgery and drugs. He opts out, planning to suffer his body's natural deterioration, seeing this as what he deserves. It requires anonymity, so he fakes his ID and takes a cottage on a remote Scottish island. Aware he will be quite debilitated, he brings an andserv to assist him. He allows himself the distraction of a piece of experimental tech-tainment: a tab that links his mind to someone in the past, in his case, Leonora Duncan. His self-indulgent rejection of the admonition to use it only three times has serious consequences for his host. Even as he becomes aware of this, he does not desist. This is a novel of historical fiction, of time-travel, of possession, of madness and paranoia. The story is told in a dual narrative: Jeff recounts the events that brought him to the island while his reminiscences offer some explanation of his mental state, his guilt and shame; Leonora's account gives the reader the unique perspective of sensing another's presence inside the mind. Meyer's tale is original and cleverly constructed, touching on several thought-provoking topics: the sense of entitlement of certain generations; the powerful lure of curiosity; the restrictions placed on women in the nineteenth century; the treatment of mental illness. Meyer easily evokes her setting with her descriptive prose, and her characters
Cloggie Downunder
Meyer writes with an almost scary understanding of the human psyche, with A Superior Spectre sewing together the relationship between personal desire, conformity, and social taboos. The underlying genius of this novel is its connection between the past and the future, forcing the reader to consider their own place in time. By no means is this book hard work, but requires you to disrobe and dive into the story with your full attention. It is mature, unpretentious, and unapologetic. It is a wonderful novel, and I'm very much looking forward to my second reading.
Benny Z
Praise for A Superior Spectre
'Haunting and wonderfully surefooted – a vivid reminder of what fiction can do.'
A Superior Spectre is a gorgeously written, viscerally unsettling novel. Angela Meyer weaves ideas about gender, desire, technology and identity through this creepy, erotically-charged tale with subtlety and elegance. It's a book you'll read in a thrilling rush and then think about for months.' EMILY MAGUIRE
'A Superior Spectre is a wild and risky novel, artfully darting between two people separated by centuries and connected by — you'll see. Meyer's triumph is that each char- acter, one in the past and one in the future, is alive with the right decisions and details for their world. This debut is filled with uncomfortable questions about sex, tech, family, regrets and the times we are stuck living in. There are no lectures or morals here, just a writer taking you to places you've never been, giving one rich vision after another, and, in the end, delivering a daring and excellent story.' STEVEN AMSTERDAM
ENDORSEMENT — 'A beautiful and troubling novel that subtly explores how the past haunts the present.' CERIDWEN DOVEY
Praise for Angela's past work 'Meyer's language is subtle and skillful, giving us flashes of unsettling truths, peppered with dark humour.'
'One of the form's most vital practitioners.'
'Her best stories are like the perfect skeletons of small animals, from which a warm and living body may be easily imagined.'

are effectively paying interest of $1,000 on a loan of $99,000. The monthly interest rate
on such a loan is $1,000/$99,000 = 1.01 percent and the compound, or effective, annual
interest rate on this loan is 1.010112 – 1 = .1282, or 12.82 percent. The effective inter-
est rate is higher than on the simple interest rate loan because the interest is paid at the
beginning of the month rather than the end.
The general formula for the equivalent compound interest rate on a discount interest
loan is
1 m
Effective annual rate on a discount loan = quoted annual interest rate –1
where the quoted annual interest rate is stated as a fraction (.12 in our example) and m
is the number of periods in the year (12 in our example).
Bank loans often require the firm to maintain some amount of money on balance at the
bank. This is called a compensating balance. For example, a firm might have to main-
tain a balance of 20 percent of the amount of the loan. In other words, if the firm bor-
rows $100,000, it gets to use only $80,000, because $20,000 (20 percent of $100,000)
must be left on deposit in the bank.
If the compensating balance does not pay interest (or pays a below-market rate of in-
terest), the actual interest rate on the loan is higher than the stated rate. The reason is
that the borrower must pay interest on the full amount borrowed but has access to only
part of the funds. For example, we calculated above that a firm borrowing $100,000 for
1 month at 12 percent simple interest must pay interest at the end of the month of
$1,000. If the firm gets the use of only $80,000, the effective monthly interest rate is
$1,000/$80,000 = .0125, or 1.25 percent. This is equivalent to a compound annual in-
terest rate of 1.012512 – 1 = .1608, or 16.08 percent.
In general, the compound annual interest rate on a loan with compensating bal-
ances is
( )
Effective annual rate on a actual interest paid m
= 1+ –1
loan with compensating balances borrowed funds available
where m is the number of periods in the year (again 12 in our example).
Suppose that Dynamic Mattress needs to raise $20 million for 6 months. Bank A quotes
Self-Test 6
a simple interest rate of 7 percent but requires the firm to maintain an interest-free com-
pensating balance of 20 percent. Bank B quotes a simple interest rate of 8 percent but
does not require any compensating balances. Bank C quotes a discount interest rate of
7.5 percent and also does not require compensating balances. What is the effective (or
compound) annual interest rate on each of these loans?
Why do firms need to invest in net working capital?
Short-term financial planning is concerned with the management of the firm's short-term,
or current, assets and liabilities. The most important current assets are cash, marketable
securities, inventory, and accounts receivable. The most important current liabilities are
bank loans and accounts payable. The difference between current assets and current
liabilities is called net working capital.
Net working capital arises from lags between the time the firm obtains the raw materials
for its product and the time it finally collects its bills from customers. The cash conversion
cycle is the length of time between the firm's payment for materials and the date that it gets
paid by its customers. The cash conversion cycle is partly within management's control. For
example, it can choose to have a higher or lower level of inventories. Management needs to
trade off the benefits and costs of investing in current assets. Higher investments in current
assets entail higher carrying costs but lower expected shortage costs.
How does long-term financing policy affect short-term financing requirements?
The nature of the firm's short-term financial planning problem is determined by the amount
of long-term capital it raises. A firm that issues large amounts of long-term debt or common
stock, or which retains a large part of its earnings, may find that it has permanent excess
cash. Other firms raise relatively little long-term capital and end up as permanent short-term
debtors. Most firms attempt to find a golden mean by financing all fixed assets and part of
current assets with equity and long-term debt. Such firms may invest cash surpluses during
part of the year and borrow during the rest of the year.
How does the firm's sources and uses of cash relate to its need for short-term bor-
The starting point for short-term financial planning is an understanding of sources and uses
of cash. Firms forecast their net cash requirement by forecasting collections on accounts
receivable, adding other cash inflows, and subtracting all forecast cash outlays. If the
forecast cash balance is insufficient to cover day-to-day operations and to provide a buffer
against contingencies, you will need to find additional finance. For example, you may
borrow from a bank on an unsecured line of credit, you may borrow by offering receivables
or inventory as security, or you may issue your own short-term notes known as commercial
How do firms develop a short-term financing plan that meets their need for cash?
The search for the best short-term financial plan inevitably proceeds by trial and error. The
financial manager must explore the consequences of different assumptions about cash

requirements, interest rates, limits on financing from particular sources, and so on. Firms
are increasingly using computerized financial models to help in this process. Remember the
key differences between the various sources of short-term financing—for example, the
differences between bank lines of credit and commercial paper. Remember too that firms
often raise money on the strength of their current assets, especially accounts receivable and

3. Sources and Uses of Cash. State how each of the following events would affect the firm's
balance sheet. State whether each change is a source or use of cash.
a. An automobile manufacturer increases production in response to a forecast increase in

5. Managing Working Capital. A new computer system allows your firm to more accurately
monitor inventory and anticipate future inventory shortfalls. As a result, the firm feels more
able to pare down its inventory levels. What effect will the new system have on working cap-
ital and on the cash conversion cycle?
6. Cash Conversion Cycle. Calculate the accounts receivable period, accounts payable period,
inventory period, and cash conversion cycle for the following firm:
Income statement data:
Sales 5,000

f. A temporary glut in the commodity market induces the firm to stock up on raw materi-
als while prices are low.
8. Compensating Balances. Suppose that Dynamic Sofa (a subsidiary of Dynamic Mattress)
has a line of credit with a stated interest rate of 10 percent and a compensating balance of
Problems 25 percent. The compensating balance earns no interest.
a. If the firm needs $10,000, how much will it need to borrow?
b. Suppose that Dynamic's bank offers to forget about the compensating balance require-
ment if the firm pays interest at a rate of 12 percent. Should the firm accept this offer?
Why or why not?
c. Redo part (b) if the compensating balance pays interest of 4 percent. Warning: You can-
not use the formula in the material for the effective interest rate when the compensating
balance pays interest. Think about how to measure the effective interest rate on this loan.

9. Compensating Balances. The stated bank loan rate is 8 percent, but the loan requires a
compensating balance of 10 percent on which no interest is earned. What is the effective in-
terest rate on the loan? What happens to the effective rate if the compensating balance is
doubled to 20 percent?
10. Factoring. A firm sells its accounts receivables to a factor at a 1.5 percent discount. The av-
erage collection period is 1 month. What is the implicit effective annual interest rate on the
factoring arrangement? Suppose the average collection period is 1.5 months. How does this
affect the implicit effective annual interest rate?
11. Discount Loan. A discount bank loan has a quoted annual rate of 6 percent.
a. What is the effective rate of interest if the loan is for 1 year and is paid off in one pay-
ment at the end of the year?
b. What is the effective rate of interest if the loan is for 1 month?
12. Compensating Balances. A bank loan has a quoted annual rate of 6 percent. However, the
borrower must maintain a balance of 25 percent of the amount of the loan, and the balance
does not earn any interest.
a. What is the effective rate of interest if the loan is for 1 year and is paid off in one pay-
ment at the end of the year?
b. What is the effective rate of interest if the loan is for 1 month?
13. Forecasting Collections. Here is a forecast of sales by National Bromide for the first 4
months of 2001 (figures in thousands of dollars):
Month: 1 2 3 4
Cash sales 15 24 18 14
Sales on credit 100 120 90 70
On average, 50 percent of credit sales are paid for in the current month, 30 percent in the
next month, and the remainder in the month after that. What are expected cash collections
in months 3 and 4?
14. Forecasting Payments. If a firm pays its bills with a 30-day delay, what fraction of its pur-
chases will be paid for in the current quarter? In the following quarter? What if its payment
delay is 60 days?
15. Short-Term Planning. Paymore Products places orders for goods equal to 75 percent of its
sales forecast in the next quarter. What will be orders in each quarter of the year if the sales
forecasts for the next five quarters are:
Quarter in Coming Year Following Year
First Second Third Fourth First quarter
Sales forecast $372 $360 $336 $384 $384
16. Forecasting Payments. Calculate Paymore's cash payments to its suppliers under the as-
sumption that the firm pays for its goods with a 1-month delay. Therefore, on average, two-
thirds of purchases are paid for in the quarter that they are purchased and one-third are paid
in the following quarter.
17. Forecasting Collections. Now suppose that Paymore's customers pay their bills with a 2-
month delay. What is the forecast for Paymore's cash receipts in each quarter of the coming
year? Assume that sales in the last quarter of the previous year were $336.
18. Forecasting Net Cash Flow. Assuming that Paymore's labor and administrative expenses
are $65 per quarter and that interest on long-term debt is $40 per quarter, work out the net
cash inflow for Paymore for the coming year using a table like Table 2.7.
19. Short-Term Financing Requirements. Suppose that Paymore's cash balance at the start of
the first quarter is $40 and its minimum acceptable cash balance is $30. Work out the short-
term financing requirements for the firm in the coming year using a table like Table 2.8. The
firm pays no dividends.
20. Short-Term Financing Plan. Now assume that Paymore can borrow up to $100 from a line
of credit at an interest rate of 2 percent per quarter. Prepare a short-term financing plan. Use
Table 2.9 to guide your answer.
21. Short-Term Plan. Recalculate Dynamic Mattress's financing plan (Table 2.9) assuming that

PAUSE FOR THE CAUSE: Get Clarity
So I've been reflecting on my dating life for the past year. To be more specific, I've been reflecting on all the mishaps I've experienced over the year. Whether it has been meeting with women who suddenly realize that they are not equipped to battle in the coliseum, me not having enough scrilla to maintain an Atlanta housewife, or females lying about their sexual prowess, the courting process has left me a bit perplexed.

Your Input is Crucial
We greatly appreciate all of the feedback that we have received from teaching faculty about our weeding project. Our criteria is based on several factors (circulation, availability from resource sharing partners, age, etc.). In addition we also compared titles to Choice and Resources for College Libraries. None of the titles flagged should have been reviewed in Choice or included in Resources for College Libraries. However, some titles by major authors, classic works, important series, etc. may have ended up as withdrawal "candidates." This is because it is almost impossible to identify these types of criteria using an automated approach. We are relying on faculty to provide expert opinion in these cases. This is the primary reason we sought to include faculty input on the process rather than simply running circulation numbers and discarding accordingly.

Why sore breasts after feeding
Modern pediatricians recommend how to continue breastfeeding for longer. But many mothers are faced with this problem: sore breasts after feeding. Sore nipples often begins in the hospital. There are some simple tips and rules, knowing that a nursing mother are more likely to avoid this inconvenience.Why breast hurts
Sore breasts during feeding due to cracks. Their depth may be quite different from minor to deep wounds. But any damage to the integrity of the nipple - a very painful thing. The main task of nursing mothers is to quickly identify the cause of the cracks and do not run the situation.
The main reason for the appearance of cracks on the nipple - error during breastfeeding. Young mothers who gave birth to a second child have to have breastfeeding experience and therefore better able to cope with this task.
How to put the baby to the breast is well told in school for pregnant women. In the hospital, you can turn to full-time consultant for breastfeeding. He will also help make the baby to the breast. If such a person is not, it is able to help any children's nurse, midwife or pediatrician. All of these hospital workers are well aware of how the baby should take the breast to avoid any pain.
Sore breasts during feeding times and for different reasons. Colostrum, which is the first 3 days, very thick. To suck it up, the newborn is making significant efforts. Unused to the constant friction tender nipples may start to hurt.prevention
The lists of needed items to the hospital often write "Bepanten" or the cedar oil. The ointment is safe for the baby if ingested, so you can safely apply it to the nipples. It will heal minor cracks and moisturize the skin. Rinse "Bepanten" before breast-feeding is not required. Cedar oil also softens the skin. It is convenient to put it on bra inserts. So the laundry is stained, and the nipple is constantly in contact with the oil.
A good way to prevent a hardening nipple: a nursing mother is recommended to keep the chest open for a couple of minutes after feeding. It is also helpful to squeeze out a few drops of milk and distribute it to the nipple. After such manipulations nipple becomes less vulnerable therefore less affected by suckling baby.
It is important not to run the problem. As soon begins to hurt the breast during feeding, you must immediately take action: to heal the crack ointment, check the correctness of applying the baby to the breast. If the damage is too severe and breastfeeding becomes unbearably painful, you can buy a special silicone lining. They protect the nipple during breastfeeding. But it is desirable to use them only until the complete healing of cracked nipples. After all, because they can disrupt the outflow of milk from the breast of certain shares that will lead to its stagnation.

Many people don't want hassle of managing passwords
There have been several major recent security breaches that have impacted users' passwords, perhaps most notably the incident at Twitter. Other events included Burger King and Jeep, prompting TechCompany Editor Patrick Stafford to highlight the importance of proper password security.
Writing for SmartCompany, Stafford explained that many people simply do not put enough effort into protecting their various passwords, mainly because they are told to use phrases that meet certain requirements. As a result, consumers just continue to use the passwords of their choice, potentially putting them in harm's way should a hacker obtain this sensitive information.
People may not be able to get away with avoiding effective password security for long, especially if they elect to use the same phrases for their various accounts. Instead of going through the hassle of remembering a bunch of passwords, consumers can use a password manager to ensure they not only have stronger passwords, but they do not have to worry about remembering them as well.
Stafford also noted that even business professionals do not practice the safest password security etiquette. The writer indicated that many do not even use a passcode for their phones, which is dangerous because if the device is lost or stolen, the party who gains control of it has full access to the person's phone.
Since more consumers are taking their mobile products with them wherever they go, these devices are likely being used to browse the web, access email and manage online bank accounts. For consumers with iPhones, it is crucial to ensure their devices are equipped with the necessary tools to protect their data. A leading password manager offers functionality for iPhone users so their mobile habits are not exploited by malicious hackers.

Because it has no screen, the Moov Now fitness tracker can last up to 6 months between charges.
Con Poor use of the large display
The fitness tracker's screen takes up a small amount of the front face. The glass bezels and casing take up most of the front.
Con Requires your smartphone for GPS tracking
The Blaze lacks a built-in GPS so it can't track the route of your runs on its own. It can, however, be paired with your smartphone to use its GPS and track the route that way.
Con Inconvenient to charge
To charge the Blaze fitness tracker, you need to remove the main module and lock it into its charger.
Con Cardio boxing requires 2 trackers
MOOV can coach you though a few different workouts, one of them being cardio boxing. Unfortunately for cardio boxing you are required to have two trackers which doubles the price for the sake of taking advantage of one feature.
Con It's a single-purpose wearable, only useful for tracking workouts
The fitness tracker doesn't have a screen or any buttons - it won't sync notifications with your phone or even display the time. It is purely focused on workouts and active time.
The fitness tracker's virtual coach has a very synthetic voice.

Oil Steadies on OPEC, Dollar
Crude oil trading on the New York Mercantile Exchange fell slightly from an 8-month high yesterday to settle above $72 a barrel. Based on reports from OPEC and a strengthening US dollar, the price of oil fell after a four-day rally.
With intra-day trading nearing $71 Friday, the price per barrel on the NYMEX ultimately fell 36 cents from Thursday's high. Settling at $72.32 a barrel, crude remained steady despite worries that the market's belief in the economic recovery may be premature.
Furthermore, the 13-member oil cartel OPEC reported today in its monthly oil report that production rose in May and global oil demand has been reduced. Also, the dollar gained strength against the euro.
London Brent crude settled at $70.92 Friday, a loss of 87 cents or 1.2% lower than yesterday's high.
Echoing a familiar take on the market, senior commodities analyst with optionXpress in Chicago Mike Zarembski commented that the recent trend in oil prices is due more to the strength of the dollar than actual demand.
"That combined with some signs that maybe the worst of the whole recessionary environment has passed us has definitely shot money into the oil market, which has probably been keeping it at prices that are maybe a little bit over-justified compared to where we are with the supply and demand situation currently," Zarembski reported. "But of course markets are forward looking, and we are definitely seeing that here in oil."
Despite yesterday's increase, the price of natural gas seems to have recommenced its recent losing streak. Falling 7.5 cents lower, natural gas dropped 1.9% to $3.857 mmBtu.
Citing a surplus in supply and dwindling demand, Zarembski said that fundamentals have taken the reins in the natural gas market.
"The speculators are continuing to short this market, though not nearly as short as they were," the analyst said of natural gas. "It's a situation where natural gas does seem exceptionally cheap to crude oil, but that situation may continue unless we get some sort of weather situation in the Gulf with hurricane season or speculators start not wanting to be short going into the fall here, and prices go up.
Zarembski reports that the natural gas market may have to wait another quarter to see an increase in prices.
"Even though the fundamentals may not start to pick up then, it may be speculators that start to drive that market a little bit higher," he said. "Maybe we're starting to see a little bit of a bottom right now, but I think third quarter probably is the earliest before we start seeing any significant pick up in natural gas."
Zarembski does foresee potential for $5 or $6 gas in the future, should production be shut-in or demand pick up.

|Buddhist Dictionary of Pali Proper Names by G P Malalasekera
|Kakusandha:The twenty-second of the twenty-four Buddhas and the first of the five Buddhas of the present Bhaddakappa.
He was the son of the brahmin Aggidatta,chaplain of Khemankara,king of Khemavatī,and Visākhā.
He was born in the Khema pleasaunce,and lived for four thousand years in the household in three palaces - Ruci,Suruci and Vaddhana (or Rativaddhana).
His wife was Virocamānā (or Rocanī),and he had a son,Uttara.
He left the world riding in a chariot,and practised austerities for only eight months.
Before his Enlightenment,he was given a meal of milk-rice by the daughter of the brahmin Vajirindha of the village Sucirindha,and grass for his seat by the yavapālaka Subhadda.
His bodhi was a Sirīsa-tree,and his first sermon was preached to eighty-four thousand monks in the park near the city of Makila.
He performed the Twin-Miracle under a Sāla-tree at the gates of Kannakujja.Among his converts was a fierce yakkha named Naradeva.
He held only one assembly of his monks.
Kakusandha's body was forty cubits in height,and he died at the age of forty thousand years in the Khema pleasaunce.
The thūpa erected over his relics was one league high.
The Bodhisatta was at that time a king named Khema.The Buddha's chief disciples were Vidhura and Sañjīva among monks,and Sama and Campā among nuns.His personal attendant was Buddhija.Accuta and Samana,Nandā and Sunandā were his most eminent lay-supporters (D.ii.7; Bu.xxiii; J.i.42; BuA.209ff).Kakusandha kept the fast-day (uposatha) every year (DhA.iii.236).In Kakusandha's time a Māra,named Dūsī (a previous birth of Moggallāna),gave a great deal of trouble to the Buddha and his followers,trying greatly the Buddha's patience (M.i.333ff; Thag.1187).The Samyutta Nikāya (S.ii.190f) mentions that during the time of Kakusandha,the Mount Vepulla of Rājagaha was named Pācīna-vamsa and the inhabitants were called Tivarā.
The monastery built by Accuta on the site where,in the present age,Anāthapindika erected the Jetavanārāma,was half a league in extent,and the ground was bought by golden kacchapas sufficient in number to cover it (J.i.94).
According to the Ceylonese chronicles (Dpv.ii.66; xv.25,34; xvii.9,16,etc.; Mhv.xv.57-90),Kakusandha paid a visit to Ceylon.The island was then known as Ojadīpa and its capital was Abhayanagara,where reigned King Abhaya.The Mahāmeghavana was called Mahātittha.The Buddha came,with forty thousand disciples,to rid the island of a pestilence caused by yakkhas and stood on the Devakūta mountain from where,by virtue of his own desire,all inhabitants of the country could see him.The Buddha and his disciples were invited to a meal by the king,and after the meal the Mahātittha garden was presented to the Order; there the Buddha sat,in meditation,in order to consecrate various spots connected with the religion.At the Buddha's wish,the nun Rucānandā brought to the island a branch of the sacred bodhi-tree.The Buddha gave to the people his own drinking-vessel as an object of worship,and returned to Jambudīpa,leaving behind his disciples Mahādeva and Rucānandā to look after the spiritual welfare of the new converts to the faith.
In Buddhist Sanskrit texts the name of the Buddha is given as Krakucchanda (See especially Divy.254,418f; Mtu.iii.247,330).
2.Kakusandha Thera.-Author of the Sinhalese Dhātuvamsa,probably a translation from the Pāli.He is generally assigned to the fifteenth century.P.L.C.255.

Shawn Johnson spoke out about the Larry Nassar sex abuse scandal in a video posted to her YouTube channel on Monday, January 22.
In the post titled "I am disgusted," the former Olympic gymnast detailed her feelings toward USA Gymnastics and the disgraced doctor who used his power to take advantage of young girls.
As of Monday, more than 130 women — including USA gold medalists McKayla Maroney, Jordyn Wieber, Aly Raisman and Simone Biles — have come forward to accuse Nassar of sexual misconduct. Over the past week, many of them spoke at his sentencing in Lansing, Michigan.
"Today I want to address everything surrounding USA Gymnastics and Larry Nassar," Johnson began the video.
"I know this goes outside the sport of gymnastics into every person and family involved. Some of which are my very close friends and girls I look up to," she said. "Know I am praying for you and that I love you. You have experienced some of the worst evil in the world. To know you guys have a voice and you're standing up for so many people — just know you are my heros."
She continued: "Knowing that USA Gymnastics has failed their athletes so terribly disappoints me and makes me so incredibly angry. The fact that any of this has ever happened shows that USA Gymnastics has failed as a governing body to protect the athletes that it supports and claims to care about."
With tears in her eyes, the 26-year-old explained that it's going to take a long time to make little girls feel comfortable again due to the unfortunate abuse these athletes have endured — and noted that is she had a daughter right now, she wouldn't put her in the sport.
"I think USA Gymnastics for a very, very, very long time has only focused on nothing but winning gold medals," she added. "They have overlooked the simple and most important fact that the people they are dealing with are minors and are children and do not have the capabilities to stand up for themselves or speak for themselves."
She concluded the video with a call to action for anyone whose trust has been violated. "We need to make sure this never happens again."
As previously reported, in November, the former USA Gymnastics doctor pleaded guilty to molesting seven girls. He was sentenced to 60 years in prison in December in a federal child pornography case.
Raisman and Wieber are two of the more than 100 women to speak out during the 54-year-old's criminal sex abuse case sentence hearing, which is now into its second week. He is facing a maximum sentence of life in prison.

James Bond producer Barbara Broccoli has confirmed that the 007 franchise would "of course" consider female directors – though we're not getting our hopes up.
Speaking at the premiere of her movie Film Stars Don't Die in Liverpool on Tuesday (September 12), Broccoli told Screen International: "There are a lot of women working on [Film Stars], which pleases me very much.
"It's incredibly important to support change in front of and behind the camera. I love working with women. It's a different vibe."
Barbara continued: "We have to promote women within the industry. Women are often tasked with taking care of children and ailing parents, so it's hard for some women to sustain a career in this industry.
"We have to be more family-friendly, with childcare, flexible hours and job shares. At Eon, we have a lot of women doing job sharing and it's easy with technology."
Although there's still no director hired for the next James Bond film, The Bourne Identity and Edge of Tomorrow's Doug Liman recently threw his hat in the ring during an interview with Digital Spy.
Related: James Bond 25 – Everything you need to know
"I have always wanted to direct a James Bond film. I think they only hire British directors, but when I was doing The Bourne Identity, I was like, 'I'm doing the poor man's James Bond'," he recalled.
"It screwed with my head when Casino Royale came out and copied Bourne because that was my gold standard. I'm not Quentin Tarantino, I didn't grow up watching esoteric films in a video store. I grew up watching James Bond and going, 'I want to do that'."
The next Bond instalment will be released in US cinemas on November 8, 2019, with a "traditional earlier release" in the UK to be announced in the months to come.

VBox 5.0.10 crash issues with our Hands-On-Lab
I've ran two Hands-On-Workshops with customers and partners in Italy last week in Milano where we used our well known and thousands-of-times proven Hand-On-Lab environment: Download Link: Hands-On-Lab "Upgrade, Migrate & Consolidate to Oracle Database 12c" But this time some people failed while running the lab with random corruptions either shutting down the entire VM while running – or displaying file corruptions in the spfile – or other issues. The common thing in all cases: People had VBox 5.0.10 downloaded and installed right before the workshop. Of course they've did it – as I'm tempted too since weeks. Every time … Continue reading VBox 5.0.10 crash issues with our Hands-On-Lab

Legislators attempting to extend provisions of the Patriot Act had their work cut out for them Thursday, and were forced to delay the beginning of their Memorial Day weekend when Rand Paul (R-Kentucky) launched a protracted day-long battle to include several amendments. Lawmakers were left scrambling to conduct the procedural motions necessary to approve extensions of the Patriot Act that were due to expire at midnight.
Eventually, both the U.S. House and Senate voted to extend several primary elements of the Patriot Act for another four years. The law was then signed into law late Thursday by President Barack Obama. But in an unlikely dispute, conservative Senator Rand Paul squared off against his own Republican party as he tried to add amendments to the legislation, all the while vehemently voicing concerns regarding the overall constitutionality of Patriot Act. Specifically, Paul sought to include an amendment to the that would limit warrantless access to gun records for law enforcement. The Patriot Act, originally signed into law by President George W. Bush, has been viewed by many as an important tool in bolstering homeland defense and thwarting efforts by terrorists.
Rand became increasingly frustrated over the course of the week, as Harry Reid (D-Nevada) first attempted Wednesday to limit the number of amendments Paul could add, while Paul's own party then sought to limit debate of his amendments on Thursday.
After both his amendments failed, an exasperated Paul publicly admonished Republicans, stating, "I've been working for two long days filibustering the Patriot Act in hopes that we can have a constitutional debate over certain provisions of it and we can try to reform it to take away some of the encroachments on our freedoms…Unfortunately, what we're finding now is that the Democrats have agreed to allow me to have amendments, but my own party is refusing to allow me to debate or present my amendments."
Historically, the Patriot Act has put legislators in a tight spot, as many have voiced concerns over the law's constitutionality and potential violation of Americans' civil rights. But conversely, lawmakers are wary of weakening the Patriot Act, a measure that is perceived to strengthen homeland security and provide law enforcement with important tools to combat terrorism.
Rand Paul's concerns highlight the particular difficulty for Second Amendment advocates of reconciling legislation that may violate those principles. Paul echoed these concerns, asserting, "It's very important that we are always vigilant, that we are eternally vigilant about the powers of government…Are we so afraid [of terrorism] that we're giving up all of our liberty for security?"
The debate brought by Paul is one that conservative lawmakers are eager to avoid, as it presents legislators with the challenge of appearing strong on homeland security without angering gun lobbyists and Second Amendment groups. In addition, Paul's defiance of the legislation echoes the events of a 2001 Senate battle in which Russ Feingold, breaking from his own Democratic party and all other lawmakers, cast the lone Senate vote against the Patriot Act, citing concerns over its infringement of civil liberties. In support of his stance, one that continually put him at odds with his own party as well as conservatives, Feingold later led filibusters against Patriot Act legislation in 2005. It appears that Paul, a Tea Party favorite, may be the latest lawmaker keen to challenge any legislation perceived as an infringement of civil liberties.
Saxby Chambliss (R-Georgia) questioned Paul's attempts, saying, "I don't understand why we would take this tool away from national security investigators…[there are] no reports that the government has ever used these provisions to violate anyone's Second Amendment rights."
In the wake of Rand Paul's efforts to debate the merits of the Patriot Act, Second Amendment proponents are left wondering whether the Patiot Act stands in direct opposition to their own interest. Lawmakers on the right may no longer have a choice in whether to take up the polarizing debate, as it appears Rand Paul has brought the fight to their doorstep.

Business Communication covers the concepts and research-proven principles of communicating in a clear and concise manner. The author has done a commendable job of providing practical applications, examples and checklists. This book puts decades of research into a context that managers can use without dumbing down to trite slogans. Business Communication is for managers who want to understand what works in communicating, rather than a simple list of do's and don'ts.
Hazel H. Edmond ★★★★★
Factors relative to external and internal communication have been discussed in a direct manner. This will be of good help to both business heads and employees.
What is effective communication and how can it be put into practice in business?

The author begins with a historical perspective on human communication and creates an up-to-date model for our times. She explores the contributions of major theorists and thinkers in the subjects of semantics, language and linguistics and describes how the lessons learned help us achieve results. Moore devotes the rest of the book to applied, actionable recommendations designed to optimize positive internal and external communication outcomes in business.

take the bus or the flight more when others say its too much a hassle. They get there because they did the extra. Even with extra effort, you could turn a new market into an existing market.
i have been able to discover that planning ahead gives you different results in as much as it increases your chances of success. There are days i go out to a place i dont know and i dont seem to acheive what i initially planned which is proliferated with so many distractions but its far better than not planning. while there are times i plan ahead and fore knowledge helps in the great planning as well as great execution.
its no reason many entrepreneurial investors always want facts rather than assumptions. It saves them the heartache of what stormy weathers their hard earned cash will pass through. The initial fore knowledge is what makes them choose an existing system/business/entrepreneur to a new entrant. its just most obvious, natural and convenient. For the new entrepreneurs, i wish you well, keep moving, keep learning and keep growing. Cheers!!!!

My earliest memory of tamales was when I couldn't have been more than four or five. My grandfather's sister, my Tia Koncha, was a crazy woman. She had so many plants that I used to think she lived in the jungle. I don't think she knew how many cats she had, and she had an amazing parrot that lived in her laundry room (in a cage) and spoke fluent Spanish- well according to five-year-old me who knew even less Spanish then than he does now. She had a TV in every room of the house (not exaggerating) and reeked of perfume. I never understood a single thing that came out of her mouth, but she was one of the sweetest women I've ever had the pleasure of knowing, and honest to God she made the best tamales I've ever had. My only real memory of them was the anticipation I would have in the car when my parents would tell me that she was making tamales for us and then the sheer pleasure I got from eating them. I couldn't tell you what type they were or how she made them, and I know there's no written recipe for them, but that's okay, because nothing I could make could ever compare. My only hope is that one day when I have kids and grand-kids, one of them looks back on my meals and is inspired to cook them for their families.
Normally tamales are made by many hands. Not only is it a long process, but it's also a pain in the ass to do by yourself. My Tias make tamales each year and invited me to help once, but I couldn't make it due to school, so instead of the loving care of my family, I had to turn to the cold disinterested attention of the internet for the basics. Fortunately I'm a boss in the kitchen, so they didn't turn out too badly. They're not my Tia's, but they're a start.
3 Onions
3 Tomatillos
8 Cloves Garlic
1 Poblano Pepper
1 Bunch Cilantro
3 Jalapenos
2 Tomatoes
2 Large Boneless Skinless Chicken Breasts
1.5 tbsp Cumin
1 Lime
Salt and Pepper
Boil the Tomatillos, Garlic, Poblano, Jalapenos, and Tomatoes. Liquify with Cilantro and Onion in a Blender. Add the Cumin. Boil off a lot of the liquid and cook Chicken Breast in small pieces in the Salsa that you've just made. Shred the Chicken and Salsa in your mini-food processor. Salt and Pepper and Lime to taste. Set aside.
1 can Black Beans
Boil off most of the water from the Beans and mash as if you were refrying them- which is to say: Hulk Smash!
??? Masa
1.63 lb. Pork Lard from the Mexican Grocery Store
1 Lime
2 tsp Baking Soda
I didn't measure the amount of Masa I used, but mix it with the Baking Soda and Salt. I just used enough to fully absorb all the Pork Lard and feel moist, but not wet. Kind of like a when you're with a girl and you're- never mind. Squeeze in the Lime. Why? Why the heck not?
x Corn Husks
Soak however many corn husks you intend on filling in warm water. This will make them pliable and will keep them from cracking. I made about 30 tamales and ran out of Masa before I used all of the filling.
Now comes the fun part... Smear the Masa mixture on each Corn Husk. Scrape some beans on them. Slap some Chicken mixture on them. Roll them up.
This takes forever, so try to enjoy yourself. Like do this part naked or something; you're not working around a flame or knife, so hukuna matata. It's fine if you're not getting a super thick layer of Masa on each Husk- when you steam them they puff up a lot.
Ideally you want your tamales to fit snugly in your pot, but since I was using a giant brewing pot, I rubber-banded them in half-dozen batches.
This worked pretty well. Make sure your tamales aren't sitting in the water. They should be on a perforated surface above the water. I improved this with random pans and crap that I had in my cabinet. I'm pretty you you could come up with something involving tin foil if you were really in a pinch. Steam them for 60-90 minutes. I don't know how to tell when they're done. Just don't worry about it, they'll turn out well.

Sexual assault includes rape, incest and other forms of unwanted sexual behaviour, such as kissing or touching. It can include behaviour which does not involve touching, such as forcing someone to watch pornography or watch someone masturbate. Some forms of sexual harassment (unlawful, unwelcome behaviour of a sexual nature) may also constitute sexual assault.
Sexual assault is an act of violence which takes a persons control over their bodies, rights and feelings away from them.
Sexual assault is a criminal offence. It can happen to anyone, any time and in any place. The majority of sexual assaults are perpetuated by men against women and are more likely to be committed by men that we know than by strangers.
Rape is when you are forced to have penetrative sex with someone by anus or mouth, by a penis, another part of the body, such as a finger or tongue, or by an object.
Incest is when members of the same family, such as fathers, step-fathers, grandfathers, uncles, have or try to have some type of sexual contact with a child or young person.
Myths about sexual assault help to disguise how wide spread it is, and how traumatic the effects can be. Myths shift responsibility away from the perpetrator. The person who commits the assault is responsible. It is not your fault. You are not to blame.
Some myths include:
Myths about incest help to disguise how often incest occurs. Myths also try to shift the blame away from the person who committed the offence. If you were abused, you are not to blame.
Myths include:
Facts about sexual assault:
Supporting someone you care about through a trauma like sexual assault can be painful and confusing. Getting information about sexual assault may help you understand what the victim/survivor is going through, and how you can offer support. It may also help you make sense of your own reactions. You can do this by talking to supportive people like friends, family or counsellors. The services listed below may be able to suggest ways of getting more information about sexual assault. It is very important to seek permission to discuss someone else's experiences before you do so.
The most important help you can provide is your support. In supporting a sexual assault survivor, it is important to:
In supporting a sexual assault survivor, it is important to avoid:
Sexual assault is a crime. It is not your fault. Recovery from sexual assault and incest can sometimes be a long and difficult process. The services listed here can offer you support and information about sexual assault, and discuss all options available to you.
Because of the myths that surround sexual assault it is important to know where to go to receive sensitive support. Centres Against Sexual Assault -(CASA's), are located throughout Victoria. They offer support, counselling, advocacy, medical care and legal information for victims/survivors of recent or past sexual assault.
It is up to you to decide if you want to report the sexual assault to the police. If you go to the police, they are bound by the 'Police Code of Practice for Sexual Assault Cases' to follow certain procedures. You will be asked basic information about the assault, then taken to the nearest CASA for a medical examination to check for injuries, sexually transmitted diseases and to collect evidence. CASA counsellor /advocates will be there to offer information and support. If you are feeling unsure, you may ring a CASA and discuss your options with a worker.
A first step to dealing with any form of sexual abuse is to tell people. Because of the secretive nature of sexual abuse and incest, the decision to tell people is a difficult one. By telling carefully chosen and trusted people, you have the opportunity to gain support, or get something done to stop the abuse. Telling the right person may help you feel less isolated and break the silence that may have surrounded your experiences.
Crimes Compensation
A person can apply for compensation if they have been the victim of assault, sexual assault or other crime. It must be demonstrated that injury has resulted from the crime. The perpetrator of the crime does not have to have been prosecuted or convicted of the offence, for the victim to make an application. The incident must be reported to the police within a reasonable time. However, in cases where there is fear of retribution, such as in domestic violence, it may be possible to argue that this constitutes 'special circumstances' for not reporting. Compensation must usually be applied for within a year of the crime, although extensions may be granted, With some exceptions these matters are heard before a Magistrate in private hearings. It is advisable to seek legal advice, and you have a right to be represented.

And since I did a nude polish comparison yesterday, and because I thought it might be a question that the one or the other of my dear readers might ask in the comments or in their minds, I did a quick comparison to Picture Polish Beige. No need to throw in Picture Polish Nude here - this is way too peachy.
Pinkie and middle: two coats of Picture Polish Beige, ring and index: two coats of Elevation Polish Cerro Torre 2. Now isn't it astonishing, how yellow Beige looks next to Cerro Torre 2?
And finally the reason I went just a tad bonkers over nudes: I want to some neutrals to layer glitter over them! While bright bases provide funny and happy manicures, more often than not, it can be just that bit over the top for my office environment which lead to me skipping my pretty glitters mostly. To kick-off this white area on my polish map I layered Elevation Polish Quartz Monzonite over it - a clear based glitter filled with black, white, magenta glitters:
This is one coat of Elevation Polish Quartz Monzonite over Elevation Polish Cerro Torre 2 and Picture Polish Beige. The glitter spreads so nicely and lays flat and smooth on the nail - le sigh - le perfection!
I order my Elevation Polishes directly from their Bigcartel shop here - and oh, just in case, it is restocked today!
I look forward to reading your comments - thanks for visiting!!!

Here is what Salsa has to say about the 29er Mamasita frame:
Designed as a racing frame, the Mamasita is crafted of custom drawn scandium alloy tubing with carbon seatstays. There's a lot more than big wheels happening here though folks.
The specially shaped scandium alloy chainstays and our carbon seatstays minimize lateral flex. This stiffens the bottom bracket area and rear triangle, and maximizes the efficiency of each pedal stroke.
The chainstay and seatstay design also works to soak up trail vibration, while not removing the feel of the trail from beneath your wheels. Our goal was to design a frame that provides subtle damping, without making the bike feel dead.
Geometry-wise, the Mamasita has been updated to work well with the current fork offsets from Fox and RockShox. We believe the go-fast crowd will appreciate the predictable handling while keeping the Mamasita pinned on the racecourse.
Mamasita. Not just pretty fast. Pretty and fast!
Give us a call at (817) 924-1333 or email at email@example.com . We will ship to the lower 48 states.

Text: Proverbs 22:6 Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it.
2 Timothy 3:1-9 This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come.
2 For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy,
3 Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good,
4 Traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God;
5 Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away.
6 For of this sort are they which creep into houses, and lead captive silly women laden with sins, led away with divers lusts,
7 Ever learning, and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth.
3 Without natural affection, = Without natural affection. In the Greek "astorgoi' would mean; without family affection.
In the last days Satan will attack the family.
All of the following is satanic attack on the Christian way of life.
This has brought corruption to our society.
Why is so many people living in fear all the time?
What is happening?
Children are disobeying parents.
Men and women are are without natural affection.
There is a lack of feelings of love and tenderness in our homes.
Mothers reject their babies to the extent that some of them actually kill them.
Fathers abandon their families.
Children neglect to care for their ageing parents.
Men and women become lovers of money and pleasure and pursue their own selfish desires.
Parenthood, sacrificial love and care is no longer considered a worthy or dignified task.
Loving parents have been replaced by them that are brutal and who abandon their children.
2 Timothy 3:1-5 This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come.
2 For men shall be lovers of their own selves,
Covetous, =found of silver
Boasters, =needeth or needful
Proud, =appearing above others
Blasphemers, =against God
Disobedient to parents, =unpersuadable
unthankful, = ungrateful
Unholy, = wicked
3 Without natural affection, = Without natural affection. In the Greek "astorgoi' would mean; without family affection.
Trucebreakers, = breaks contracts
False accusers, = perjures
Incontinent, = without control
Fierce, =savage
Despisers of those that are good, = hostile to virtue
4 Traitors, = to commence already, to begin before the time
Heady, = rash
Highminded, = to inflate with self control, be lifted up with pride, be proud
lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God; = self-explanatory
5 Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: = form and rituals
From such turn away.
Turn away from ALL of these things and follow your natural instincts such as the instinct to love one another. Be like girls are from the time they are born. They are born mothers. They mother everything they get their hands on.
The influence of parents shapes the hearts and lives of their children. Children that are abused in the home will abuse others when they are away from home.
Children that are taught to honor and respect in the home will do the same outside the house. ETC…
If Christian parents are to save their children from all the ungodly they must shield them from all the corrupt values that are in our society.
Separate them from the world's ways and customs. Don't let the ungodly world influence them.
Thank you Christian mom and dad for sticking to the morals and values of the Christian faith.

In December, non-farm employment increased by only 148k, less than expected 190k. Wages increased by 0.3% m/m, maintaining the annual dynamic at 2.5%. The unemployment rate remained at 4.1%, as expected. For the market participants, employment is of secondary importance, but the lack of a positive surprise in wages strikes the optimism built after good ISM and ADP data.
December's data puts into question the date of another interest rate hike in the US and supports cautious rhetoric among the FOMC's members in this regard. Moreover, this week, market attention will be focused on inflation data. First of all, global investors will find out how the price dynamics in large economies such as China and the US were shaped in December. The inflation data will be the very important because without a spike in inflationary pressures there is no chance of sustained hawkish rhetoric among the Fed's members. In addition, in view of the continuing divergence between the monetary policy of the Federal Reserve and the European Central Bank, it is also worth noting the minutes from the last meeting of the ECB. Most likely, expectations regarding core inflation developments will be crucial for the timing of changes in the monetary policy of the euro area.
Let's now take a look at the USD/JPY technical picture on the H4 time frame. The market tried to rally above the technical resistance at the 113.50 - 113.74 zone, but bulls were too weak to perform this rally and the price only tested the internal golden trend line and reversed. The momentum is still quite strong, but the market conditions are becoming overbought at this time frame, which suggests a pullback towards the level of 112.50.
