While investing in bullion is not a complicated activity, in and of itself, the process does raise several issues for potential investors. Does one buy gold or silver (or both)? Does one swap their paper currency for bullion coins or bars? Lastly, once one has obtained their wealth insurance; how and where do they choose to store that bullion?
Previous commentaries have endeavoured to provide guidance for several of these questions. However least-discussed amongst them has been the issue of bullion storage.
There are several reasons why this topic has not received as much attention as have other bullion-related topics. To begin with; for bullion investors of more modest financial needs, the question of bullion storage is an entirely personal and private decision. Do they keep their bullion at home in a safe, do they store it in a safety deposit box; or, do they come up with a 'more creative' means for storing/hiding their bullion?
For those investors; the question of "in which jurisdiction do I store my bullion" is moot. It would be financially impractical for those individuals to consume a significant portion of their own financial resources just to keep their bullion secure.
The other reason why bullion storage has not previously drawn much discussion is the principal legal issue involved here, counterparty risk. For newer readers for whom this term is unfamiliar, counterparty risk arises any time we choose to place the custody of some of our wealth into the hands of a third party. The risk is that we may not be able to retrieve what we have placed in the hands of this third party.
This financial risk is most typically considered with respect to paper assets. Indeed, it is now a paramount consideration, with Western governments implementing bail-ins.
With respect to any wealth we hold in paper form, the only paper which is safe, is cash in our hands. At least that used to be the case, until Western governments began leaking-out propaganda on their newest scheme for financial oppression: the War on Cash.
With the corporate media now posting opinions on a near-daily basis from various Western officials and pseudo-experts that banning cash would be "a good idea"; a ban-on-cash is coming. The only remaining questions are how and when. Furthermore, as previously noted; any ban on cash would inevitably be extended to bullion confiscation.
The reasoning here is simple, and seemingly irrefutable. Currently, there are two ways for us to personally hold our wealth in the form of currency; the paper currencies pumped-out in near-infinite quantities, or gold and silver. Obviously banning cash would create a massive motive amongst the general population to convert their cash into bullion.
Furthermore, either concurrently or shortly after; any ban on cash would undoubtedly be extended to a ban on bullion, accompanied almost certainly by some form of bullion confiscation. Among the many dramatic consequences of the latest criminal conspiracy by these governments; a ban on cash would turn the issue of counterparty risk literally upside down.
If it became illegal for people to hold their own wealth personally in the form of cash, then, Western governments would transform the issue of counterparty risk into a totally different subject: counterparty protection.
If we are forced to personally divest ourselves of our own wealth, or engage in civil disobedience (and be subject to forfeiture and prosecution); then suddenly the subject of bullion storage – in some outside jurisdiction – takes on a new aura of importance. It is beyond the scope of this article to attempt to provide readers with any detailed assessment and ranking of particular jurisdictions with respect to bullion storage. Rather, the goal of this article is to help readers and investors begin this quest.
Some of the narrowing-down of options here is simple. First, no investor should be so foolish as to store their precious bullion with any financial institution which refers to itself as a bank.
Equally, we can automatically reject several jurisdictions. Most of the world's financial storage (bullion and otherwise) is provided in London and New York.
However, not only are these cities the two global focal points for all financial crime; they are located in jurisdictions which are at the heart of the uncertainties we find ourselves surrounded by today. Other Western jurisdictions, represent merely lower levels of the same problem. So what about the East?
Only a decade ago, any such East-versus-West comparison would have evoked laughter amongst most readers. Western jurisdictions were still deemed to fastidiously adhere to the rule of law, while many Eastern governments were deemed to be both much more authoritarian and only minimally committed to the rule of law.
Today, these same governments are now regarded by well-informed sources as being legally superior to the West. However, this change in perception is not due to any significant improvement in the laws or constitutions of these nations. Rather, it is merely the extreme and rapid descent of the West into lawlessness which has made these nations appear relatively more attractive than in previous years.
Singapore? Hong Kong? Shanghai? Different investors, with different perspectives and their own, personal experiences, would likely pick a different favorite here. For readers and investors struggling with this choice, a new bullion storage destination has appeared on the horizon.
Sprott Money has recently partnered with Strategic Wealth Preservation Ltd. (SWP) to introduce a new bullion storage option in the Caribbean: the Cayman Islands. Many readers will already be familiar with this jurisdiction as a safe haven and preferred destination for the wise and wealthy. The Cayman Islands is the world's 5th largest financial centre and enjoys favorable legislation surrounding its financial services industry that allows for the fluid movement of assets to and from the island. The Cayman government understands the importance and significance of its status as a top-tiered financial centre and further appreciates the benefits this status has created for its population. With the word bail-in not continually on the lips and in the vocabulary of Caymanians; some readers will find these factors alone, to be a strong drawing-card for this new bullion storage destination.

I spent a few hours yesterday pulling up the laminate flooring that the previous owner had installed in place of the shag green carpet (not complaining about that haha!) and much to my dismay, I found a few more spots of rusted out plywood subflooring.

2016 – reimagined
A few weeks ago my newsfeed was filled up with words. Weird, right? ;) These weren't just any words; many of my friends were picking THE WORD that they would try to live boldly and authentically throughout the year. Perhaps even better than resolutions, one word could define your actions, intentions, and outlook for the next 12 months. Finding your word can be easy, for some it's more difficult. I wanted to wait until THE WORD just felt right. At first… I thought my word was Unleashed. It was someone else's word (which is totally okay!) and it just STUCK for a … [Read more...]
beginning of my airstream journey
It wasn't until December that I started having time (aka making it a priority) to work on my '74 Airstream. I had also just gotten a new flash for my Canon which absolutely means I had to go take 10,000 photos of every nook and cranny before I started reno. I'm not getting too crazy too quickly; I'm not sure of what holds a lot of value in my precious trailer, I want to be able to reuse as much as possible while freshening it up to fit my tastes!

Metrorail strike enters third week
A strike by SA Transport and Allied Workers' Union (Satawu) members against the Passenger Rail Agency of SA (Prasa) went into its third week on Monday.
Gauteng Metrorail spokesperson Nana Zenani said only about a third of its services were running.
"The strike action by Satawu members now enters its third week with Metrorail services still operating at approximately 32% service level," she said in a statement.
"This means that only half of the Metrorail non-striking employees and Utatu [United Transport Allied Trade Union] members are responsible for running the train service."
Commuters—of whom about two million make use of Metrorail every day—were encouraged to seek alternative transport.
The strike by Satawu and Utatu started three weeks ago after the unions rejected a 5% wage increase offer by Prasa.
But after Prasa revised the offer to 10%, Utatu accepted it.
However, Satawu members remained on strike, demanding 13%.
Prasa last week said it was waiting for a phone call from Satawu to discuss the situation.
Satawu was not immediately available for comment on Monday morning. - Sapa.

NY state Assembly speaker charged with fraud in corruption probe
New York Assembly Speaker Sheldon Silver, one of the state's most powerful politicians for more than two decades, is charged with fraud after a lengthy corruption investigation. Linda So reports.
A mob of photographers surrounds the car carrying New York Assembly Speaker Sheldon Silver. Silver appeared in federal court in Manhattan on Thursday after surrendering to authorities. The 70-year-old Democrat, who is one of the state's most powerful politicians, is charged with fraud and other criminal counts after a lengthy corruption probe. SOUNDBITE: U.S. ATTORNEY PREET BHARARA, SAYING: "Over his decades in office, Speaker Silver has amassed titanic political power, but as alleged, during that same time Silver also amassed a tremendous personal fortune through the abuse of that political power." Silver who has served as the highest-ranking assemblyman since 1994, is accused of trying to conceal corrupt sources of outside income. He's also accused of using the power of his office to obtain millions of dollars in bribes and kickbacks. The criminal complaint alleges Silver received about $4 million from two law firms since 2002. SOUNDBITE: U.S. ATTORNEY PREET BHARARA, SAYING: "In the case of the real estate kickbacks, Sheldon Silver develops a relationship with real estate developers, some of whom he knows because they lobby him and is in a position to exercise tax and abatement laws." If convicted of a felony, Silver would lose his elected seat. Until that happens, he is under no obligation to resign. An attorney for Silver says it's unfortunate prosecutors chose to purse the criminal case and they intend to vigorously contest the charges.

The worlds of film and watchmaking are infused with the same creative effervescence that is inspired by tradition and a quest for excellence. Little surprise then that Jaeger-LeCoultre has found it shares common values and a shared mission with the global cinema industry.
For more than a decade, Jaeger-LeCoultre has shown its dedication to the art of film-making through a continued support that sees it sponsor some of the world's most revered film festivals, from Venice to Shanghai. The Swiss watchmaker, which has been crafting authentic and unique timepieces since 1833, is also determined to promote and increase the appreciation and preservation of film the world over.
"Haute horlogerie and the worlds of cinema and photography share common values: both create dreams and a sense of wonder through aesthetic and technical mastery," says Jaeger-LeCoultre chief executive Daniel Riedo. "Jaeger-LeCoultre draws upon the talent of its many artisans to create exceptional watch objects, just as it takes talented writers, directors, actors and technicians to produce a work of film-making art. It is all about two worlds infused with creative ingenuity."
Based in Vallée de Joux, Jaeger-LeCoultre has for nearly two centuries been a leader in its field and today carries on the inventive spirit of founder Antoine LeCoultre. The company is credited with a host of ground-breaking inventions in the art of watchmaking and its current collections are as surprising as they are sophisticated. Timeless timepieces apart, the company helps promote and create dreams through its support of the annual global parade of film festivals, and the institutions around them.
The Venice International Film Festival is the world's oldest and arguably most elegant. The star power on the red carpet never fails to amaze and this year's awards enjoyed a particularly high fashion element, with designer Tom Ford claiming the Silver Lion Grand Jury Prize for Nocturnal Animals, a thriller starring Amy Adams and Jake Gyllenhaal. It is Ford's second feature-length movie.
Away from the klieg lights and high-octane social scene, Jaeger-LeCoultre has helped undertake important restoration work at the Scuola Grande di San Rocco. The building has been a constant since 1478 when wealthy Venetians decided on a monument to mark the city's escape from the plague.
The decision by the followers of the cult of San Rocco, or Saint Roch, to build an official headquarters and to engage the artist Tintoretto to create the works that would fill the walls and ceilings of the building was an inspiring one. Their foresight saw the building completed almost 100 years later and the creation of an artistic legacy where more than 60 paintings are preserved in their original setting.
The scuola is active today, maintaining its charitable duties as well as looking after its extraordinary artistic heritage. While the building remains largely unchanged in the 500-plus years it has stood at the heart of the city, Jaeger-LeCoultre's sponsorship has allowed the lighting system in the Sala dell'Albergo to be overhauled and a cleaning of the marble in the Sala Capitolare to be undertaken.
This year was the 12th that Jaeger-LeCoultre partnered with the Venice International Film Festival, a relationship the company regards as one of its most significant. The event is always celebrated by a limited release. This year, the grande maison unveiled its latest jewellery watch creations, paying tribute to femininity in a line inspired by the electrifying atmosphere of the City of the Doges. The pieces include the Reverso One High Jewellery, Rendez-Vous Moon and Rendez-Vous Secret.
A constant at the most important film festivals and particularly Venice is the Glory to the Filmmaker Award by Jaeger-LeCoultre, an honour recognising an artist who has bought innovation to contemporary cinema. In the past it has been claimed by Takeshi Kitano, Abbas Kiarostami, Agnès Varda, Sylvester Stallone, Mani Ratnam, Al Pacino, Spike Lee, Ettore Scola, James Franco and Brian de Palma. This year, the award went to Amir Naderi.
Elsewhere in Europe, Jaeger-LeCoultre boasts a proud association with the Académie André Delvaux and the Magritte Awards, which celebrate the creativity and diversity of Belgian cinema.
In 2013, Jaeger-LeCoultre cemented its support of a new generation of filmmakers by joining forces with the Film Society of Lincoln Centre, the organisers of the New York Film Festival, to create a Filmmaker in Residence programme. The initiative is designed to support filmmakers at an early stage in the creative process against the backdrop of New York and the New York Film Festival, with winners including Athina Rachel Tsangari (Chevalier), Lisandro Alonso (Jauja), Andrea Arnold (Fish Tank) and Alice Rohrwacher (My Bitter Land).
At this year's Los Angeles Film Festival, the Glory to the Filmmaker Award was presented to award-winning French cinematographer and artist Maryse Alberti. Alberti is one of the most notable female cinematographers in the United States and her recent works include Collateral, starring Will Smith, Kate Winslet, Helen Mirren, Keira Knightley and Edward Norton, and M. Night Shyamalan's The Visit.
"We're thrilled to shine a light on legendary cinematographer Maryse Alberti and all female directors of photography working in film and television," says Los Angeles Film Festival director Stephanie Allain.
In Hong Kong, Jaeger-LeCoultre has been a significant force for good in the cinema industry. The brand is currently in the midst of a three-year sponsorship of The Society for the Academy for Performing Arts, which helps to raise funds for the Hong Kong Academy for Performing Arts.
The annual Academy Ball, organised by SAPA, raises funds for students and the school. At a single gala dinner last year, as much as HK$7 million was raised to support the arts. Some of those funds were directed to student scholarships, with one of the most sought-after being the Jaeger-LeCoultre Performing Arts Scholarship. The scholarships are awarded each year to six outstanding students from the six schools at the Academy.
And the brand's influence carries over to the mainland, where Jaeger-LeCoultre has been an official partner of the Shanghai International Film Festival since 2011.
Through this partnership, Jaeger-LeCoultre works to protect Chinese cinematographic heritage by funding the restoration of old movies. Ten classics have been restored in the past five years, with the process going beyond just repairing a film and instead offering a new interpretation of seminal works.
Jaeger-LeCoultre's close association with the best in film festivals around the world, with the art of film-making, with its support of film-makers is significant for its longevity and depth of connection.
It is a tangible reward for the dreamers and the dream-makers who contribute to creating and bringing to life the art of film-making. It also ensures the heritage of cinema lives on.

5 Natural Ways To Help Reduce Allergy Symptoms ~
Seasonal allergies can be miserable and long lasting.It is important to understand that when the body is trying to combat an allergic reaction, it is because something is not right within your body and it cannot fight off the allergen by its own defenses. This imbalance triggers a reaction and you get allergy symptoms.
Most people suffering from allergies go to a doctor and are given acetaminophens or antihistamines, both of which can aggravate the allergy symptoms it was given for. Prescribed medications for allergies upset the natural process and PH balance of our body's immune system. You then become dependant upon the medication and will always have to take a drug to alleviate the symptoms from whatever allergy you are suffering from. These drugs do alleviate/hide the symptoms but the internal hyper reaction in our body is still there. This is why it is so important that we give our body a break from the drugs and try to provide it with natural ways to heal itself.
Start by eating healthy and drinking lots of water. Then try these 5 natural ways to help reduce allergies. You must use all of these 5 suggestions daily! It is always best to start this routine BEFORE allergy season.It can take a week or two to see results.
1. Freeze Dried Stinging Nettle: This is a safe, natural antihistamine that reduces seasonal allergies. Take 3-6 capsules daily (this is safe if you are pregnant). The nettles have to be freeze-dried to work. You can purchase these in major natural foods stores or online.
2.Apple Cider Vinegar, Honey and lemon: Mix a tablespoon each of raw, local honey & organic apple cider vinegar together. Add to 1 cup of warm water containing the juice of 1/2 a lemon. Drink this 3 x a day. Organic, unpasteurized Apple Cider Vinegar (ACV) at 5% acidity is what you need to use. This contains the "mother" which is the living enzymes that work to fight off infection and balance the body. True ACV promotes alkalinity and PH balance of the body, which is why it is a great remedy to fight allergens. Raw local honey contains bee pollen, which is known to ward off infections, allergies, and boost immunity. Lemons alkalize the body which means better balance and immune function. Lemons and limes are loaded with antioxidants, that are excellent for boosting the immune system.
3. Nasal Rinse: Nasal rinses can help remove allergens, bacteria and pollutants from the nasal passages. You can rinse using a Neti Pot or a a squeeze bottle that's made specifically for use in the nasal passages, both can be found online or at most drugstores. Be sure to use distilled water when rinsing
4. Quercetin 500 mg ( half for children): A plant pigment found in many common herbs and foods, and a very reliable anti-inflammatory nutritional supplement. It helps with gut repair, boosts the immunity in your mucus membranes reducing reactivity to seasonal allergens, and also helps reduce food allergies. There is conflicting data on whether it is safe in pregnancy. Do not take it during the first trimester and limit your dose to 250 mg/day thereafter if you'd prefer to use this over a conventional pharmaceutical while pregnant.
5. Buffered Ascorbic Acid: Take up to 2000 mg daily. This is an excellent anti-inflammatory and antioxidant. Do not exceed this as a total daily dose during pregnancy, including what is in your prenatal vitamin.
Be sure to check out my Resource Page for information on what Freeze Dried Nettles I use.

Do you think any of these would help with extreme reactions to insect bites?ReplyDelete
These crop growers will now try to save money due to pests eating their plants by investing a few dollars on cheap insecticide that is deluged over the crops. These chemicals that we spray them with will leach the soil of nutrients by making them bio-unavailable, or useless to the body. These harmful chemicals will bind to vitamins and minerals in the soil and make them permanently useless molecules. natural allergy supplementsReplyDelete

Resilience to Power – 11 Tips for Getting There
Maybe the weather has been a little gray. Maybe the evening news makes you want to weep. What about things in your personal life? How's that going? Work?
While you may think there are a lot of reasons to be glum, wallowing in a negative place won't help you get what you want out of life.
Most of us will have to face adversity or significant challenges over the course of our lives. When you do have a setback, it's your resilience, or the ability to tap into your inner strength, that can help you bounce back faster.
I'm not talking about depression. That's a whole other story. That's a condition that should be treated professionally. When depression isn't part of the equation, resilience is what pulls us through to success.
From the extraordinary to the everyday
There are many amazing stories of ordinary people using resilience to survive extraordinary (and awful) circumstances.
- In 2010, 33 miners in Chile used resilience to help each other survive for more than two months trapped underground.
- Christopher Reeve became a passionate activist for spinal cord injuries after he was paralyzed in a horseback riding accident.
- Victor Frankl used his experience in three of the most notorious World War II concentration camps to help others find meaning in life.
Even though your experiences will hopefully never come close to the hardships they endured, your life stresses can have a lasting impact. It's the same resilience that got these men through their ordeals that can help you move from surviving to thriving when life is not going your way.
Are you born with it?
The good news is that resilience is not a trait that you either have or don't have. Resilience is something you can learn and practice. In many ways, it's a choice.
In Victor Frankl most famous work, "Man's Search for Meaning", he describes life in a Nazi concentration camp and how those who survived were often the ones who maintained a sense of control and looked for ways to find meaning in their lives despite the suffering all around them.
"Everything can be taken from a man but one thing: the last of the human freedoms—to choose one's attitude in any given set of circumstances, to choose one's own way."
By choosing your attitude, you gain power over your circumstances instead of your circumstances taking your power away.
What is resilience?
Resilience is about monitoring and moderating your thoughts, beliefs, attitudes and behaviours. It's about taking care of yourself – physically, emotionally, spiritually and socially.
There are some very specific steps you can take to build resilience by
- Regulating your emotions and how you react to circumstances
- Controlling your impulses
- Showing empathy
- Striving for optimism
- Knowing yourself so you can understand the cause of your actions and reactions
- Practicing a bit of self-efficacy
- Reaching out to others to help you through
11 tips for building resilience
Try incorporating these behaviours and actions into your daily life and see what a huge difference it can make.
- You can't always leave all your emotions at the door, but you can work on regulating your reactions and allowing your emotions to take over. Remember to take deep breaths instead of throwing a stapler across the room is a good first step.
- Don't think or talk in absolutes – stay away from "This is the worst thing ever", "I will never get over this", or declarations of "I can't do this". These are all statements that take away your power.
- Don't fight change. Even though denial is a part of grief, acceptance allows you to move forward. The sooner you stop fighting against the things you cannot change and start moving forward, the better you will be.
- Look inside for your strength – what has gotten you through difficult experiences before? What's happened when you haven't given up? How can you draw on that strength again?
- Be gentle with yourself and others. Whether you've been wronged or if you've messed up, anger and resentment, whether it's directed at yourself or others, will only keep you in a negative space. It doesn't mean acting like a doormat for others, but it does mean letting go.
- Using optimism for the future will help you get past the crappiness of today. Optimism is about looking ahead with hope instead of back with despair. It allows you to keep things in perspective. Instead of focusing on fears and anxiety related to the event, consider visualizing getting what you want, achieving your goals, and having the life you want.
- When something crappy happens, without dwelling on the negative, review the crappiness and give it a reality check. Was it completely out of your control? Did you contribute to the events? How can you learn from the experience? Tread carefully. This should not be about self-blame or recrimination; this is about learning.
- This is the time to engage in healthy habits. Eat well, get sleep, get outside, and exercise. All of these points will help you feel better and give you the strength to deal with life.
- In the same vein, practice impulse control. Stay way from the behaviours that may feel good in the moment, but will only make you feel worse in the long run. That chocolate bar will not make the problem go away. Either will that drink. Be aware of habits that could drag you down.
- Tap into your social network for advice, support, and to get your mind off of the hardship. Go out and do something fun. Do something that reminds you that the ups and downs are part of life and this too shall pass.
- Tap into your gratitude. Gratitude is all the rage these days – that's because it works. By focusing on the things you are grateful for, you reset your thinking away from the negative. It reminds you that even when things are bleak, there are plenty of good things in life.
Crappy situations are always crappy. But you don't have to get stuck there. When you build resilience, you can rely on yourself to see you through. That's where power comes from. There is tons more to share from positive psychology and neuroscience to help you build your resilience but start here and you're on your way.

Do you want to do Dubai on the cheap? Consider summer. Seriously. If you're not that bothered about doing the outdoorsy stuff (hot air balloon rides, desert safaris, walking around Marina, breathing outside…), then think about visiting Dubai in the summer.

This is the process of the current leaseholder getting permission from the freeholder to extend the length of their leasehold term. Under the Leasehold Reform, Housing & Urban Development Act 1993 a leaseholder now has a statutory right to extend the lease on their flat by an additional 90 years, which cannot be unreasonably refused by their landlord – though there is a charge for this.
What is a lease?
A lease is effectively a long term tenancy which is normally held over a flat. A residential lease is normally initially granted for a period of 99 to 125 years. If you don't extend your lease, then it will simply expire and the interest in the flat will revert back to your landlord. This means that you have no lease to either extend or sell in the future.
What are the differences between freehold and leasehold interests?
A leasehold interest is a long term tenancy granted for a set period of time. During this time you will have the right to live in and have undisturbed use of your property. However inevitably the lease will come to an end and at the end of this period the ownership of the building will revert back to the landlord or the 'freeholder'. It is common for leaseholders to pay a ground rent (a monthly amount of rent) to the landlord. In addition the leaseholder is liable to pay service charges which will normally cover any maintenance to the building. Flats and apartments are usually leasehold properties – houses are usually freehold, though you do come across the occasional leasehold house.
A freehold interest is the ownership of a property and the land it is situated on. The only restrictions as to what you can do with your property are found in law and are exercised through the local authority (such as planning permission granted by the local council).
How can I take a physical look at my lease?
You can obtain a copy of your lease from the Land Registry or your mortgagor. You may incur a fee in doing so. Ask your solicitor for more information on how to request this service.

Regular release 3/5.
So, WordPress recently upgraded to 4.5, and I followed suit.
I don't know if this upgrade broke anything or not. But I do know that I don't enjoy the new linking mechanism.
Also, I learned a lot of diamond-related terminologies from this. Useless, but good to know. I really doubt I'll ever need to bust out this knowledge though.
"Oh, my madam. The diamond on your ring is simply flawless…EX….D…Florescence…."

I forgot one of my favorite Christmas books in the last book post (how could I?). Some of you will remember Marcia Adams wonderful PBS shows Cooking from Quilt Country. I have her two Quilt Country books (one signed when I met her in person) but my favorite cookbook of hers is Christmas in the Heartland.
It is a beautiful Christmas book in which she visits various homes in the "Heartland" and writes about the Christmas customs of the regions... for instance the Morarvian influence, the Victorian influence, an Indiana farm family, etc. Absolutely lovely pictures and recipes... that's how I remembered the book. I needed it for the stained glass cookie recipe in it. This book is available really cheap on Amazon and I highly (highly) recommend it.
I've kind of interrupted Christmas reading by including Surprised by Oxford by Carolyn Weber. I'm reading it along with the Miss Read Christmas book. A friend of mine gave me a $10.00 online gift "card" to Amazon for a Thanksgiving gift and I had a couple dollars left from credit... just enough to buy this book third party. So far I'm loving it but I'll give you the whole story next month.
That reminds me... yes, your credit I receive for entering Amazon is showing up (asked in comments). I can't tell WHO is ordering anything but the reports show me what is ordered and the amount of credit received. The last two months credit was used to purchase Christmas gifts for my grandchildren. Without it I would have had to give them an IOU under their tree. I humbly thank you... you all have blessed me (and I'm sure the other blog friends for whom anyone enters Amazon through their widgets).
Grace Livingston Hill: Her Story and Her Writings by Jean Karr - I had no idea there was a biography of GLH until I saw this slim volume at a library sale a few years ago. Why am I just now reading it? Because I had put it on my bookshelves and only recently came across it again.
As with all good biographies, it also shares with us the history of the times in which the subject lived. I came to understand how GLH was influenced by her family and her surroundings to make her a great writer and a strong Christian. In some ways her biography reminds me a lot of the book Searching for Mrs. Oswald Chambers as both women gave us books we love as a result of tragedy in their own lives.
Both of these books are very good but the GLH biography was written in 1948 and I'm not sure there was ever a recent edition. It would be worth finding it through the library if you are a fan of her books. I looked on Amazon for it and they do have a few inexpensive copies (and some over $300!). The author shown on their page is Grace Livingston Hill herself, which is not correct. This book was written a year after her death.
The Magic Never Ends: The Life and work of C. S. Lewis by John Ryan Duncan - This was a Goodwill find that I really liked. It is a companion book to a film but I've never seen the film version and this was definitely good read on its' own.
The story of his life is told by five or six people who knew him well. It's not an indepth biography but a macro account with pictures. It would be a good biographical introduction to people who found him through the recent movies.
People My Teachers: Around the World In Eighty Years by John Stott - Reading more by and about John Stott was on my "things I want to do" mental list this year. This is the kind of book one peruses and comes back to again and again. It's a unique way of telling us about people who have influenced his life by taking us around the world and sharing by region instead of time.
Some are understandable, like the Apostle Paul and there were a few I had to read to understand why they were included... like Darwin. It contains people from long ago (obviously since I mentioned St. Paul) until the time this book was written. It is full of gorgeous pictures, maps, etc... one of Stott's hobbies was photography.
The Tehran Initiative by Joel Rosenberg - This is the second "end time" thriller in Joel's new series (the first being The Twelfth Imam). Iran has the bomb and the Imam is out to destroy the U.S. and Israel. I was up past midnight finishing this book one evening. The next day my husband asked me why I was up so late and I told him that a nuclear missile was heading for Jerusalem and I had to know what happened. :)

Well, after several false starts, I finally was able to sit down and record the inaugural portfolio review – Chapter One! In this 1-hour recording, I looked at the portfolios of two real estate photographers.
Please note that I am not linking to their sites, nor am I going to use their full names in print, to avoid any chance that a client could Google them and discover this video. If you're going to cross-post this, please respect that as well. And please join me in thanking these two hardy pioneers for putting themselves "out there" in a very vulnerable place so that the rest of us can benefit from scrutinizing their work.
As I mention in the video, the opinions I give are MINE – and they're worth what you paid for them, y'know? No doubt a careful look through my own website could discover some of the very same problems that I'm pointing out today. The idea here is to take a slow, careful look at a couple of portfolios and start thinking about them objectively. I didn't hold back – when I thought an image sucked, I said so. As I usually do, I also spent a fair amount of time critiquing the really good images, and the almost-really-good images, because those represent the leading edge for that particular photographer.
Chapter Two is scheduled to go up in 10 days or so – and is Titled "Down Under" – we'll be looking at a couple of Australian photographers.
If you'd like your website to appear here, send me an email with "Portfolio Review" in the subject line, and your url, along with a quick description of your shooting style, your background, and your goals.

The Lykogiannis quotes for a shirt from the first minute, the Greek in fact would provide more coverage on the left-handed lane. However, a more 3-4-1-2 offensive can not be ruled out with Joao Pedro behind Sau and former Pavoletti. Reunited with the Romagna group, the young defender remains in a run-off with Andreolli.

Mario Rui has trained with the group in these days despite the problems accused in the game against Leipzig, remains in early warning, however, May.

Introducing Beijing Primary and Middle School Sex Education Guidelines, the first textbook of the series Footstep of Growing Up, which includes lessons entitled, "My Body", "Where Did I Come From," "Cute Boys and Girls." The Chinese textbook will be used at Dingfuzhuang No. 2 Primary School starting this September.
Instead of telling children they were brought over by storks, the book takes a scientific approach to sex education – using words like human propagation and sperm. Here's an example of a line (translated into English): "The testicles inside of the father's scrotum produce sperm, which look like little tadpoles that are very energetic and good at swimming." There are even more descriptive lines (which we'll leave to the imagination). Thus, it is clear that the book is not shy about vocabulary on the subject – and for primary students.
In addition, the vivid illustrations are a bit risqué. "It is just a pornographic book. What if my son copies the gestures in the book," says one Chinese parent. "It is too early for primary students to know such detailed information about sex."
But just ask most parents what they think and 60 percent agreed with promoting this new book on sex education, 38 percent were neutral and only 2 percent disagreed with promoting this new book.

A skilled German metallurgist, Christopher Bechtler, assisted by his son August and his nephew, also named Christopher, operated a private mint in Rutherford County, North Carolina. Rutherford County and other areas in the Piedmont region of North Carolina and Georgia were the principal sources of the nation's gold supply from 1790 until the California gold strikes in 1848.
The coins minted by the Bechtlers were of only three denominations, but they covered a wide variety of weights and sizes. Rotated dies are common throughout the series. In 1831, the Bechtlers produced the first gold dollar in the United States. (The U.S. Mint struck its first circulating gold dollar in 1849.) Bechtler coins were well accepted by the public and circulated widely in the Southeast.
The inscription AUGUST 1. 1834 on several varieties of five-dollar pieces has a special significance. The secretary of the Treasury recommended to the Mint director that gold coins of the reduced weight bear the authorization date. This was not done on federal gold coinage, but the elder Christopher Bechtler evidently acted on the recommendation to avoid potential difficulty with Treasury authorities.

Women in Physics Conference
This post was written by guest blogger, Novarah. She and several other students from Illinois attended the Conference for Undergraduate Women in Physics in January, 2014 at the Unviersity of Chicago.
This year, the Conference for Undergraduate Women in Physics was held at the University of Chicago, Florida State University, Louisiana State University, Pennsylvania State University, Stony Brook University, UC Berkeley, University of Maryland, and the University of Utah.
I attended the University of Chicago conference. On Friday, we were given optional tours of the nearby national labs: Fermi National Laboratory or Argonne National Laboratory. It was really exciting to see the ATLAS Accelerator Facility at Argonne and get a tour of lab sites.
During the weekend, we had fantastic speakers from the University of Chicago, the Adler Planetarium, and other universities. The discussion panels were very helpful in letting students voice questions they had about undergraduate research, graduate school, careers, and what it is like being a woman in these environments. The conference was particularly helpful in letting us know about challenges that we might face in our careers and the wide range of paths we may take. During the poster presentations, we got to talk to other students about their research. We saw a variety of research labs and experiments during the campus lab tours. These are really helpful in giving students an idea of what working in a lab or research group might be like. It allows them to learn about different areas of physics that they may not get to learn in classes.
Networking was a major focus as we spent a lot of our time in groups for tours and activities. The conference events helped build a sense of community with the other attendees. I got to meet so many female physics majors throughout the weekend and I hope they become familiar faces when I attend graduate school and continue my career.
The annual WIP conference is one of my favorite events. I have been lucky enough to attend it for four years in a row. It is great to meet other female physics majors and listen to the inspiring words of the guest speakers and to develop a stronger sense of community. The Conference for Undergraduate Women in Physics is a wonderful place to get information from personal stories to ongoing research. I hope all students get to attend conferences like this.

The group, from Workington, was originally a three piece with founder members Paul, Steve & Robin playing their first paid gigs as "Britannia Colours" when Jimmy Hendrix was just coming onto the UK scene.
A.C. Experiment lasted two good years from 1967 - 1969 playing all the venues of the time including the Tow Bar at Nethertown, Silloth Lido, Carlisle Cosmo, Workington Princess Hall and of course the Reds Club.
The demise of the group was sealed when the engine blew up in the sole surviving van half way up Bridgefoot hill on the way back from playing a dance at Embleton!

Brokers did not give large-scale investors in mutual funds the discounts they should have gotten in nearly one in three transactions, a study by regulators found.
The Securities and Exchange Commission is requiring about 2,000 brokerages to review their transactions in mutual funds sold with upfront sales charges.
An inspection "sweep" of 43 brokerages from November through January by the SEC, the New York Stock Exchange and the NASD (formerly the National Assn. of Securities Dealers) found that most firms -- apparently inadvertently -- failed to provide required discounts in at least some instances, regulators said Tuesday.
The breakpoint discounts are required by NASD rules to go to investors in funds with upfront sales charges when they invest $50,000, $100,000, $250,000, $500,000 and $1 million. Less than 7% of all fund sales last year involved upfront charges.

When life gets tough, the important thing is to remember that God has a plan. I don't know that that necessarily means God made a "good" plan that includes everything I want, and that I'll never encounter tragedy, but rather that God means for me to grow and learn during my time here on this earth. No matter how big the disappointment, I will survive, and hopefully come out stronger, and will have had an opportunity to learn something. That's the question to ask: what am I learning in this situation? It's hard not to ruminate on all the mistakes I've made in my nearly 40 years of life and how I wish I could have done certain things differently, but what happened is what happened, and had I done things differently I'd be ruminating over how I could've done those particular things differently.
I hate the feeling of starting over. I just want to find that one place, stay there, and be happy there. But every time I get into that place that I think I want, eventually I want out. I want excitement and change, yet when I get that change, I'm so full of fear and I just want to turn around and go back to comfort. It's an endless cycle of not being grateful for what I have right here and now. The reality is that life can always get worse. I've heard of enough tragedy in the world to know that no matter what heartache I experience, worse things have happened.
When I'm going through difficult times, I tend to catastrophize and project into the future and make it all about how this is how it always has been and always will be, that the mistakes I've made and the disappointments I've encountered will just recycle themselves over and over in a new form but they'll be the same at their roots. During this down time I forget that one day the sun will show, and I'll feel that peace and happiness again.
I don't know what God means for me to learn. Maybe it is to focus more on myself and what I need to do to get through school. Maybe it is to acknowledge that I've been keeping a much more open mind about all the ideas I had about how everything should be, and I'm learning that it's possible to give up those ideas, and that love grows when that happens. But also that maybe there are still some old ideas I need to let go of.
My mentor has told me before that whatever happens is really all up to God; I have no control. I can try with all my might to manipulate the situation into how I think it should be, but that approach often blows up in my face. I get these ideas about how my life should be, and I don't understand why, when what I want seems so little to ask, that I don't get that. But everything I've ever wanted I've eventually gotten in some way, just always in combination with something else that I really did not want. Instead of being grateful that I have this thing, I focus on the negative. It's time for me to start focusing on the positive. How many people have the courage to do what I'm doing, and have done, with my life?
I spent most of my life hiding behind a drink, and finally started to get my shit together nearly six years ago, and since then my life has been on a spiritual path. I've married and divorced twice. I left a high-paying, soul-sucking career to live in near poverty, sacrificing domestic comfort to do something that will contribute to society in some meaningful way. Before getting sober I bumbled through life, baffled with the way it all worked. So many people out there go through the motions and just do whatever society deems correct—that's what I did for years—and they don't really stop and question anything. A lot of people never really find God. I am grateful that I found God, because I just don't think I could survive without a higher power in my life. There is a reason for all of this. I don't know what it is, but this means something. I don't know what it means, and I wish I did, I wish I knew my purpose and where this is all going, but I guess if I knew where it was all going I'd be on my deathbed. Probably what happens is I'll get to my deathbed and I think, Wow, so that was it. I spent all this time wondering what life was all about while forgetting to live it. That's the thing. This is it. THIS is it. This IS it. This is IT.

The Apple Watch Series 3 was loaded with new features , including the ability to use it to call, thanks to its 4G technology. What made us uneasy was knowing that during the current year he would not reach Spain . Yes, we were not on the list of 10 lucky countries.
It does not mean that we can not buy ours, in fact, if we go to the page of Apple we will be able to buy it right now , but without 4G connection. We can purchase the aluminum model until we have the 4G version available in Spain, since the stainless steel and Apple Watch Edition have no option without LTE.
But do not lose hope, Apple claims that the Apple Watch Series 3 with 4G connection will arrive in Spain. Yes, in 2018. No one has ventured to give the exact dates, but surely the reasons for this delay are because they must agree with the operators the activation of the virtual SIM that incorporates the clock.
And, as for the design, the new Apple Watch LTE models are almost identical to the 2 series models, with the exception of a thicker 0.25 mm rear glass that houses the heart rate sensors and the bright digital crown which denotes its LTE version. The red digital crown draws attention powerfully , and nobody leaves indifferent. It's a kind of love-hate.
Inside, the device has a powerful an upgraded S3 processor, and is the most interesting change for this wearable. It is significantly faster than the Series 2 Apple Clock and if you come from Series 0 or Series 1, you will see that the speed is now noticeably higher.
Some new owners of Apple Watch in its LTE version have encountered activation problems when trying to install their new devices , but in the video test connects without any inconvenience . When used connected to an iPhone the battery has a much faster wear rate.
The Apple 3 Series watch can be purchased at Apple's online store and in its physical stores. There are LTE and non-LTE models, although in Spain, at the moment and as we have previously advanced, the LTE version is not available . It is for this reason that we recommend waiting for such agreements to be able to enjoy all the functionalities of Apple Watch 100%.
