Stock investors look upon the massive gains earned by early Bitcoin and Ethereum investors with envy. They see the value in blockchain technology and distributed ledgers and want to get in on the action before the markets have fully priced in the impact that cryptocurrencies will have on the economy. While most investors won't put in the effort to open up an account with a private cryptocurrency exchange like Binance or Coinbase, there are still plenty of opportunities to get exposure to cryptocurrencies in the public markets. Don't be fooled though. Publicly-traded companies know their stock price will skyrocket if they make a blockchain announcement, so companies like Long Blockchain Corp (formerly Long Island Ice Tea Corporation) are making spurious pivots into Blockchain technology to ride the hype train. Does anyone really think that an Ice Tea company will become a major player in cryptocurrency markets? Fortunately, there are plenty of legitimate companies that stand to gain from the cryptocurrency mega-trend. Here are five cryptocurrency stocks that you might consider for your portfolio#1 - AMD (NASDAQ:AMD)Bitcoin is mined using high-end specialized hardware packages called ASICs that perform no other function than mining Bitcoin. Creators of newer cryptocurrencies like Ethereum and Dash wanted to make it so that everyone could mine cryptocurrencies, not just centralized mining facilities with specialized hardware in parts of the world with cheap electricity. They changed their hashing algorithms so that anyone with a modern computer and graphics card, like those made by AMD and Nvidia, could mine their coins. AMD's Radeon graphics cards are preferred by cryptocurrency miners because they offer superior hashing performance to those produced by Nvidia. By targeting their products toward miners, they have significantly expanded their potential market size by creating products that can be sold to high-end computer gamers and to cryptocurrency miners.There are plenty of other reasons to like the company as well. AMD's revenue is now steadily growing again after years of not being able to compete with rival Intel. Analysts keep raising their price targets on the stock and their financials are looking better quarter-by-quarter.

Square helps small business owners around the globe accept credit cards through point-of-sale systems and mobile card readers. Business owners might flock to the platform if they become the company that allows them to easily and seamlessly accept Bitcoin.

THERE IS NOTHING SO EASY AS DESTRUCTION. That is a simple doctrine which is often forgotten. The unbeliever is not in any need of genius. The fool, the withered heart, hath said, "There is no God." I want to smite and humiliate and expel if I can the notion that it requires a very great genius to be an infidel.
Christian ministers and Christian believers labour under a great disadvantage in this matter. They are supposed to be fanatics, wellmeaning but weak; accountable, but wanting in brain force. Infidels are geniuses; to be heterodox is to be popular; to publish a book against Christ is to get a circulation. There is, I repeat as my starting-point, nothing so easy as destruction, what is called iconoclasm, imagebreaking, a man going round the temple with an iron rod in his hand and smiting all images of beauty and purity and dignity. How much genius does it require to break a vase? Look at Nature, and the same lesson is taught us. Any beast can crush a flower: who can put it in joint again? No angel; it takes God to make a flower, it takes God to repair it when it is broken. I am dwelling upon the ease of destruction. It is an offhanded trick. Young men, there is nothing in it. Why are you befooled by it? Why do you allow yourselves to be taken away from the old altar and the old book and the old faith because somebody has said "No"?
Give me an hour to do what I please in before the Royal Academy is opened, and it will never be opened; I could destroy the pictures by the dozen. Am I then great? deserving of popularity? Will you cry out for me, "Let us have freedom of thought, freedom of action"? You will not allow that in the Academy. Show me the President's fairest painting, and with one dash it is out of sight. It took the President long months to make it; he dreamed about it, he conversed with fellowartists respecting it, it grew upon him like a dawn; but as an iconoclast I went in, and with my pailful of inartistic colour I dashed it out of existence. Am I therefore to be memorialised, and to have my name written on monumental brass, and to be looked upon, if I am arrested, as a martyr and a hero? I think not.
You are building a bridge. I have a proper respect for all bridges; but, after the engineer has said, "It is finished," give me two hours, and I will blow it into atoms. It has taken years to build, it is a monument of engineering skill, the people who have had to do with its construction are justly proud of it; and yet, with an appropriate supply of dynamite, I will rend it in an hour, and the work of which you are so proud shall be a hideous ruin.
Young man, why do you follow so largely and enthusiastically men who have nothing to say to you but words of destruction, men who try to rob you? He who takes from you one tender and inspiring association is a thief. You are not the young man you were before that depletion took place. It was a tender association; some called it superstitious, but no association or uplifting of the soul is superstitious that sends a man back again into the market-place to keep honestly his scales and measures. Our religion might be charged as a religion of fanaticism and superstition, vision and contemplation and cloud-beating, but it sends us back to heal the sick, to nurse childhood, to take the blind pilgrim over the road out of danger's way; and it makes us, when we have spread our banquet, send a portion to him that is hungry. Associations, I care not how far they go upward among clouds and stars, if they send me back again a sturdier citizen, an honester, more chivalrous man, are true; they prove their truth by their moral effect,
Yet, what a great noise a little infidelity makes. One infidel will make more noise than a thousand Christians, and noise is thought to be prosperity and success and the utter uprooting and total routing of the Church. It is always so that the destructive becomes, I will not say more popular, but in the first instance more notorious, than the constructive. Did any of you hear that the Scotch express arrived safely in Edinburgh last night? If it had broken down between London and Edinburgh, the world would have heard of it. "Accident to the Flyman Scotchman. Terrific Panic on the Great Northern. Awful Consternation among the Passengers." They report destructions; who cares to hear that the train got in safely, and everybody went home, and there was rest all round about? So if one little infidel a few inches high should get up in this church and make a noise, we should all hear about it. Do not mistake the importance of the event; it is not without significance; even the noise of an infidel should attract some attention finely adjusted to the occasion. But "Behold he prayeth." Ah, then the whole church should turn round, and with tearful eyes gaze on the beauteous spectacle, and with swelling, ennobled heart should praise God that another soul had been saved.
So there is a common law in operation here. It applies to people, to teachers, to hearers, to religious relationships, and to all the commercial economy of the world, and to everything that touches life at any point. It is the destructive that is reported. Not a soul will hear of this meeting to-night on the other side of the street, but if the roof fell in all the city would talk about nothing else to-morrow. So when men come and destroy, or attempt to destroy, our religious associations and faiths and hopes, let us know that nothing uncommon has happened, because there is much uproar and tumult about it; after all, the case is not serious necessarily. Where one man has gone back, lapsed into apostasy, a dozen hearts may have been quickened, stimulated, and cheered by visitations from the unseen Spirit of the Almighty.
Jesus Christ contrasts Himself with this destroying power. He comes to save. If He comes to save He will want time. Salvation is not to be wrought out in a moment. The development of human history is not an instantaneous act. Christ is building night and day; Christ is advancing "with the process of the suns." Yet sometimes in the advance there appears to be a singular and discouraging recession. But that recession is but like a refluent wave; it has gone back that it may come forward again with a mightier energy and exceed the line where the last wave fell. If Jesus Christ has come to save, He will require patience. Men may be in a sense saved in a day, but they are not educated, instructed, edified, consolidated in a day. And what rude scholars we are! how inapt, how reluctant of heart, how soon wearied, how disposed to gravitate to the centre of the earth!
But Jesus Christ is patient with us; when the hill is very steep He takes us up in His arms that we may get our breath again. But all this means expenditure of time, thought, care, solicitude; and all this means the exercise of a patience that cannot be fluttered, because it has its centre in eternity. You can make a wax flower to order; you can say, "This flower shall be ready to-morrow at three o'clock." Who can promise to grow one of these sweet bluebells that are on the hillsides, and have it ready this day week? The little thing comes up out of eternity; it is a child of the solar system, it is a blossom upon rocks infinite. You can order a coat to-morrow for your child, but you cannot order a character. Jesus Christ is the Constructor, the Builder-up, and an the line of God's challenges is a line calling us to this view of His character and purpose. "Where wast thou when I laid the foundations of the earth?" He is always laying foundations here, is the Constructor, the Creator, the Builder. "Who hath laid the measures thereof, if thou knowest? or who hath stretched the line upon it? And as for thee, man of words and fretful spirit, canst thou bind the sweet influences of the Pleiades or loose the bands of Orion? Canst thou bring forth Mazzaroth in his season? or canst thou guide Arcturus with his sons?" This is not the voice of the destroyer, a little god with a great flail smiting and destroying things. He guides, rules, calls forth, keeps in order.
It is a greater miracle to have things preserved than to have them destroyed. We cannot be made to think this; we are curiously disposed to see more in the stroke of anger than in the smile of love. Did the sun rise and set to-day? -to use popular language. To this inquiry you return an instant "Yes." In that circumstance find the true miracle. A universe preserved is a universe created. If we could impart this conviction to the Church, we should have a new state of things. So you see ministers have hard work to do; Christianity is the grandly audacious religion, because it comes not to destroy men's lives but to save them. What other religion soever proposed to save the world, every one in it, and to save the world by a Cross, by the mystery of Crucifixion, by the great mystery of sacrifice and atonement, by the wondrous economy of blood? All this requires time, patience, long-suffering love. O wait for the Lord, yea, wait patiently for Him; when His economy is completed all Heaven will be filled with the music of thankful joy. But Christianity is audacious in its beneficence. Christianity will do nothing perfunctorily; it will make clean, clear, complete, exact, and permanent work along all the line. It does not rough-hew its subjects and allow them to finish; it continues all its operations until the very last is as the strongest, and the least is counted one of the mightiest in the kingdom. This is the Lord's doing, and it is marvellous in our eyes.
Give the Church more time, give ministers more time. An infidel might rush into your family, and in five minutes ask questions which all the philosophers in creation could not answer in five centuries. The minister goes in, asks where the sick one is, walks quietly to the bedside, and prays through tears. Who can measure the issue? The fool came in as upon the wings of a tempest; he went out with a noise destitute of music. The servant of God did not lift up his voice and cry and cause his voice to be heard in the street, but patiently, gently, lovingly, sympathetically, he passed through all the ministry of Christian priesthood, that sweet, gracious gradation of office which is permitted to Christian believers and fellow-pilgrims; and nothing was known of that tender miracle. What a prayer it was! The sick man threw off his sickness as the weird words went up in silence and brought back Divine benedictions as replies. O ministers of Christ, to whatsoever communion attached, ours is the hard work; but it is enough for the servant that he be as his Lord. If they have refused the Lord, they will refuse the servant. We are to prove the divinity of our vocation by our persistence. The time will come when all the other people will drop away. Time tries all. So long as there is health, prosperity, rioting, and power of imparting joy, you will have round about you all manner of speculators and destroyers, but when the clouds gather, and the winds cool, and the night deepens, you will say, "Where are they?" and echo will answer "Where?" But there will be One left, and when you ask the name of that One who remains, it will be the name of the Son of Man. He may be represented by some poor, humble member of the flock, but Christianity never leaves the soul. Yea, though I pass through the valley of the shadow of death I will fear no evil; Thy rod and Thy staff shall comfort me.
We have to be upon our guard in one direction, for it is possible for a man to destroy his own fife. Nothing is so easy as destruction there as well as elsewhere, and no other destruction is possible, if you will it to be so. No man can hurt you but yourself; you have nothing to do with your reputation, with public criticism; you have nothing to do with traduction and slander. "To thine own self be true," to Christ be true. No man can murder thee; no weapon that is formed against thee shall prosper. There is only one form of destruction possible, and that is suicide, and suicide is easy. There is but a step between thee and all kinds of death. Do not narrow that passage to one little meaning. There is but a step between thee and social death, moral death, family death, spiritual death -but a step. The road lies along a very high and dangerous precipice - one step, and all is over. "Hold Thou me up, and I shall be safe." O Thou God, who dost lay foundations and build universes, Thou who art the Builder, give me the edification of Thy grace lest I stumble and fall and die.
Here again the doctrine holds
good. Nothing is so easy as destruction. Here is a man who has been living
forty years in the great city, honoured by all, trusted of all. How long
would it take that man to destroy his character? One moment, and nothing
could redeem it but God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Ghost.
Forty years has this merchantman been in building the tower of a high and
honoured reputation; in one action he levels the tower to the dust. He
has but to forge a signature, he has but to utter one sentence, and let
it be known that he has uttered it, and his prayers are forgotten, his
professions are looked upon as unmasked hypocrisies, and the Church cries
shame and puts him into the wilderness. When some kind witness comes forward
to testify as to his good character, the old judge says he will take note
of the suggestion, but he adds that this only aggravates the charge that
is brought against the man. We need continual watchfulness. "Let him that
thinketh he standeth take heed lest he fall." O blessed are the dead that
die in the Lord. "Call no man happy until he is dead," says the proverb,
"for at the last he may perish." Blessed day when I am permitted to put
my foot within the door. So near is death, so easy is destruction, so broad
the gate that opens upon perdition. Do not despair; let God work His miracles
here. You are in process of salvation; that is to say, you are in process
of education and edification. Yield to God; have no will but His. The tempter
will be hard upon thee, O friend. He does not like to see that tower of
a noble life rising course by course in fine, exquisite masonry, as if
touched with an angel's finger, and if he can fight thee and win, he will
do it. Through much tribulation we must enter the gate. Christ has not
chosen the easy work. The thief has come to thieve and to kill and destroy
-the easiest of all work, a coward's work. "I am come that they might have
life" that is the hard work, the noble work, the blessed work. Ministers,
teachers, office-bearers, professing Christians, you are feeding the life
of the world; that is the positive. You will often be discouraged and disappointed.
When I began my ministry I said, Surely the people will only need to hear
that Jesus Christ the Son of God loved them and gave Himself for them,
and they will man by man fall down and hail Him Saviour, King. It has not
been so. Some of you have outlived three ministries. You can mention the
pastors one by one, and characterise them, and describe them, and eulogise
them. But you eluded them all. When they speak of you, your name is as
a wound, your memory is a stinging disappointment. Yet even now you may
fall down broken-heartedly, you may be found at the Cross, the one way
to Heaven, the only way to Heaven, the infinitely secure way to Heaven;
and even now you may be, not destroyed, but saved.r

According to Dr. Sebi, the red small Apple is the closest Apple to the original Apple- the original source from the mountain of Kazakhstan.
Mango comes in a variety of sizes, textures, and tastes. Raw fruits with seeds are better than fruits with no seeds. Store bought canned fruits are not healthy to eat; they contain preservatives, pesticides, and are poor in nutritious value.
Dr. Sebi recommended that we eat raw natural seeded fruits. He warned that we do not eat seedless fruits, cooked fruits, or canned fruits. Do not add any salt, black pepper, or vinegar to fresh fruits; we should eat the fruits raw.
Papayas are excellent for digestion. Dot not purchase papayas iF imported from Hawaii. They are GMOS
If the fruit is dry, always soak them before you eat them. For example, dried prunes, dried raisins, etc.
Do not eat dried sulphured fruit, some are golden in color, sulphur is harmful and is a health risk inside the body.
Fruits not to eat is pineapple, cranberries, seedless and fruits. For a complete list of fruits not to eat, see GMO food guide.

Settlement Agreements (previously known as Compromise Agreements) are an increasingly common way to resolve employment disputes and/or bring about the end of the employment relationship. Such an Agreement is a legally binding document in which the employee agrees not to pursue a claim against his employer and waives their right to do so and in return receives a sum of money (usually tax-free) as an incentive for doing so.
Most likely yes. If you are offered an Agreement then it is advisable not to discuss this with anyone other than immediate family until you have taken legal advice. There are a variety of clauses that are commonly found in Settlement Agreements. These include:
- That both parties will keep the terms of the Agreement confidential and not discuss it with anyone other than specified individuals;
- That neither party will make any adverse or derogatory comments about the other; and
- All property owned by the other must be returned.
As part of the Settlement Agreement a reference can be agreed so that you have peace of mind over what your employer will put in any reference they provide when you are looking for your next job.
Yes. The employee must have received independent legal advice from a suitably qualified advisor (usually a solicitor) on the terms and effect of the Agreement in order for a Settlement Agreement to be valid.
In almost all Settlement Agreements, your employer will make a contribution towards you getting legal advice on the terms of the Settlement Agreement. The contribution will usually cover our fees. There should be a clause in the Agreement approving this. The typical process is for the solicitor to send their invoice to your employer directly so you do not have to get involved in the issue of paying fees.

Choo Choo Chicken – Best Korean Fried Chicken Wings In Town?
by admin
[Updated April 2015] Step aside 4 Fingers. And maybe step aside Chicken Up, Korean fried chicken store Choo Choo 츄츄 claims to serve "the best Korean fried chicken in town". Serious? (Check out the 5 Best Korean Fried Chicken in Singapore.)
Choo Choo Chicken at Bali Lane (near Bugis and Arab Street) is a humble 24-seater shop that plays the usual Korean pop on a television screen at the back, with minimalistic black & white checked floor décor. You may just want walk past and miss.
Different Korean fried chicken fans had claimed that this shop opened by a Korean language teacher did offer the some of the best wings in Singapore.
Fried chicken were served with Original, Soy, Spicy or Sweet marinade, in the form of Whole Chicken ($29.90), Crispy Wings ($16/$29), or 8-Piece Wings ($16).
There is a reason why casual restaurants 4 Fingers is more popular than all the rest – they at least serve chicken in individual portions.
Who goes in to order a minimum of 8-pieces? We like to feel guilt-less. Fortunately, there are lunch sets available ($7.90 – $8.90) with rice sans drinks.
Woh! The Spicy Crispy Pieces I had were 맛있는 delicious, with the sauce evenly enveloping the crunchy batter (and it is sweet and not overly spicy), and the meat simply juicy without many bones. The batter still remains crisp after minutes. Very awesome.
The Original Ones were not so spectacular because I would have enjoyed more chomp in the batter, but still good. Even though I was given breast meat (a part I didn't fancy because it's usually dry), Choo Choo's version stayed tender.
The friendly Korean staff's other recommendation was the CC Burger ($6.90). Between the spam and the cham chi (kimchi with tuna), the spam layered with light mayonnaise wins hands down. Skip the sweet rice cake Dokboki ($4) though.
So is this the best Korean chicken wings in Singapore? I went back for another try and I think yes leh – it's a close tie between Choo Choo and Chicken Up. Each has its merits.

Just curious. Do they provide plastic gloves?
Sammy : July 16, 2015 at 1:48 pm
No they do not. Its a small restaurant so be prepared to share seats. The chicken are freshly fried on the spot so it is really crispy and crunchy. We tried the garlic and the soy ones. Overall 6/10.

I thought Choo choo chicken is way better than 4 fingers because their chickens are fried upon order request. The sauce is also well marinated on the chicken, so every bite is together with the sauce.
If you think 4 fingers are the best, you should try choo choo.

In Photoshop CC 2015, the Export Layers to Files was moved under Export (which makes sense), but this tool no longer saves the last export location under the "Destination" Field. I process a lot of stock photos into a set size and aspect ratio using Photoshop, and specifically this tool - and now ever time I use it I have to find the location I save those files to, instead of just using my default location. If possible, I would like the tool to recall the last used location again. (This was the norm up to CC 2014). Thank You.

The Difference
Did You Know?
Nintendo hasn't only been part of the video game and card industries...
When Hiroshi Yamauchi became president of Nintendo in 1949, the company's playing cards were selling in record numbers. Yamauchi was however still not satisfied and decided that his company needed to expand quicker. To achieve that, the new president set out to try and break into different industries by offering new products and services.
Among these was a line of instant rice. All customers needed to do was add water to the portioned rice, and voila! Instantly-prepared rice.
That was a failure.
Next, Yamauchi opened a "love hotel" business. People could rent rooms by the hour and perform actions to which they are so inclined within the allowed timeframe.
That idea was just as well a failure.
At the same time, a taxi company named Daiya was started by Yamauchi. While it wasn't as much a failure as the other two attempts, the impatient president grew tired of the complaints thrown by the taxi-driver unions. This was the bitter end of Daiya.
With his next attempt, Yamauchi finally saw clearly. Nintendo was part of the entertainment industry and nothing else. Thus began the video game revolution...

Police said an intoxicated driver might have been a factor in a crash that sent two people to the hospital and damaged a house Tuesday night.
Lexington police Lt. Paul Boyles said the car was heading west on Radcliffe Road when the driver ran a red light at Russell Cave Road at about 7:55 p.m.
The driver continued onto Winburn Drive, then lost control. The car hit some bushes and flipped onto its top, colliding with a house on Winburn Drive.
Boyles said the driver and passenger of the car were taken to a hospital with injuries that were not thought to be life-threatening.

Our Approach
We say YES! We are a small and nimble company looking to work with a select group of districts and companies in the Houston area who are interested in providing quality services to residents of Houston.
Our Story
DRAWHORN.com is owned by Derek Drawhorn (me).
If you have made it this far, then you already know a little bit about me. I pride myself on being a normal person in every sense of the word. That being said, I stay very busy with a wonderful marriage, two great kids, and a few house pets.
Educationally speaking, I have a Bachelor of Science (B.S.) in Computer Science (1989) from Sam Houston State University. I obtained a Master of Science (M.S.) in Computer Information Systems from the University of Phoenix (2002).
I served as a Director and Vice President of a local waterboard in Northwest Houston for 11 years. This district was a mixed residential and business district with roughly 700 connections. Over my tenure, our district had many typical situations which required steady attention both with vendors, contractors, and residents. My background in technology and water stewardship gives me certain insights that others may not possess.
DRAWHORN.com is a side business at this time; however, we hope to enlist additional clients and expand our staff very soon.
Over the years, I have had the opportunity to develop products for many different companies, not to mention my own employers. Below are a few of the companies I have worked with on varied development projects
- Focus On The Family

Debunking Economics - the podcast
108. Can Economics Save The Planet?
We're seeing an increase in the rate of ice loss in Antartica – another sign that global warming is worsening, whilst the world's leader do little to mitigate the problem. In fact, one of those leaders has said it's all a hoax. But if we had a unified impetus to do something about it could we device economic systems to change our behaviour and resolve the problem? That's a question Phil Dobbie puts to a jaded Prof Steve Keen who believes we must undergo the shock before we take the problem seriously. So far, the shocks haven't been pronounced enough. And, whichever way you look at it, the solution will involve compromising our living standards.

Personal loans are offered by banks and financial institutions in Malaysia whenever you are in need of funds.
Personal loans offered have a loan amount limit, loan tenure, and interest rates which are based on your eligibility as per the rules imposed by banks or financial institutions. You can get personal loans with limits ranging from a minimum of RM2,000 which can go up to a maximum of RM150,000. Many banks also offer flexible and long tenure periods which range from 12 months up to 84 months.
Checkout your Eligibility for Personal Loan
Though personal loans in Malaysia are roughly classified into 3 types, there are 2 forms of personal loan issued.
Basic variations of personal loans
Unsecured Personal Loans:
Most of the personal loans offered in Malaysia are unsecured loans. For such personal loans, you need not present a guarantor or a collateral to be eligible for the loan. Since these loans are unsecured, you may have to present a proof of your financial stability to the bank for the loan to be approved. This is to ensure that you would repay the loan on time. These loans would also have higher interest rates when compared to secured loans.
Secured Personal Loan:
Secured personal loans require you to provide a guarantor or collateral to get the loan approved. If you present a guarantor to get a personal loan, then the guarantor would be responsible for the loan repayment if you default on the loan. If you present your house, car or land as collateral for the loan, then the bank may possess the collateral until you settle the loan in full.
Know More about Unsecured Personal Loans
Know More about Personal Loans
Types of personal loans issued in Malaysia:
Instalment Loans:
Instalments loans are the common type of loans issued as personal loans. If you get an instalment loan, then you need to repay the loan in form of minimum monthly instalments over a period of time. The loan tenure and loan amount would be as per your preference if you are eligible for the loan. The interest rates would be informed to you at time of loan application.
Revolving Loans:
Revolving loans are a bit similar to instalment loans where the loan amount is approved in full by the bank. But you would not get the entire loan amount for usage. You can use any amount needed within the assigned loan amount. The amount you withdraw should not exceed the total approved loan amount.
When you repay the loan, you have to only pay the principal amount that you withdrew along with the interest for the amount you borrowed. For this loan, the interest is calculated on the amount you withdraw, not on the total available credit limit. Once you finish paying back what you withdrew, you will be able to withdraw the same amount again.
Overdraft Loans:
As the name suggests, overdraft loans means that you can withdraw funds from your bank account even when you reach or cross your credit limit. Overdraft loans do not require the same process and regulations that apply to instalment or revolving loans. Overdraft loans usually come with high interest rates that can prove to be quite expensive for you especially when you use overdraft loan to pay medical bills or other expenses.
Type of Interest Rates for Personal Loans
When it comes to interest rates, personal loans offered in Malaysia can be categorised into 2 types, fixed interest and variable interest rates.
- Fixed Interest Rates: A personal loan with fixed interest rate will have the same interest rate for the entire loan period even if there are fluctuations in the market. Usually loans with fixed interest rates will have a fixed instalment amount every month for the whole loan tenure. If you wish, you could pay more than the monthly due amount where the extra amount would be accepted as advance payment.
- Variable Interest Rates: Personal loans with variable interest rates would change during the loan period based on the market rates. If the market rates are low, then it would be beneficial for you as you would pay low interest rates. But if the market rate goes up, then you may have to pay more than the usual interest rate.
If you decide to get any type of personal loan, carry out as much research as you can and always go in for a loan that you can pay back with ease.

---Excellent service - Gear Zone - a company of highest integrityFirst of all I like to say I am not an employee of Gear Zone and until last week I knew nothing of this company.I spent many hours searching though the web for a pair of gloves to keep my hands warm and dry whilst out hiking. I have bought two or three pairs of gloves in the past and all failed to keep my hands warm and none of them fulfilled any of the claims that the manufacturers make.Eventually, after looking at scores of customer reviews I discovered Black Diamond that actually make gloves and mittens that keep your hands warm in sub-zero temps. Although more expensive than the gloves you buy in high street shops, these are the top-end of the market and are serious gear for the explorer.Once I decided that Black Diamond Mercury Mitts were for me I spent hours looking for the best supplier, comparing prices as well as quality of service. One website that stood out from the crowd was Gear Zone which caught my eye. Why?

6 Mar 2015
By Ruth Davidson (The Courier – Friday, March 6, 2015)
I HAVE special reason to be grateful for Accident and Emergency units in Scotland. Thanks to a rather cavalier attitude to personal safety, I've managed to break my legs, pelvis, back, ribs and even a couple of bones in my feet over the years. In all those occasions, I've been grateful for the incredible professionalism, patience and expertise of the doctors and nurses who put me back together again.
I'm sure many Courier readers have similar stories to tell (although I hope you haven't all been quite as reckless as me). A&E is our national safety net: open 24-7 to catch us when we fall from the high wire. So it is right, when stories emerge of an A&E crisis in Scotland, that we all should worry.
That there are problems is now unarguable. Earlier this week we found that in Fife, for example, hospitals once again missed the target to get 95% of A&E patients seen within four hours. It follows a series of stories about dirty wards there with trolleys contaminated with blood, and operations which have been cancelled because of the lack of capacity. Across Scotland, the picture is similar. In January, more than 3000 patients spent more than eight hours waiting in A&E. Waits are now longer in Scotland than down south.
It needs to be said at this point that the doctors and nurses on the frontline are performing heroics to keep the show on the road. The head of the British Medical Association in Scotland said recently that the NHS was operating on the goodwill of staff. He's right. Without that commitment to our most treasured public service – the NHS – would collapse tomorrow.
But we also need to be much smarter as a society about how we sort this crisis out. Time and time again at the Scottish Parliament, I listen on as Labour and the SNP engage in a pointless game of one-upmanship over the NHS. Labour accuses the SNP of letting the service corrode on their watch. The SNP pull out statistics to show that things were even worse under Labour. And after the whole meaningless slanging match is over, nobody is any the wiser.
Let's listen instead to the professionals. I visited doctors at one of our busiest A&E Units in Edinburgh earlier this week. They told me of some basic common sense ways to improve matters. During some parts of the week, they are able to help elderly patients get quickly in and out of hospital because they're well-connected to social care nearby. But if that same elderly person goes into hospital at the wrong time in the week – say at weekends – social care isn't available, and that person ends up being admitted to hospital for days. Then you get a domino effect: beds get filled, operations cancelled, and the whole system backs up.
The Scottish Conservatives came up with one idea to try and help this week. I don't think doctors and nurses in A&E should be mopping up after drunks on a Friday and Saturday night just because they're so inebriated they can't make it home. As many as 21,000 people clog up A&E in Scotland every year just because they're drunk. So we want to see special treatment centres in our major cities where a drunk person is sent to sober up. It may help reduce those waits and free up time for doctors to deal with genuine cases.
I also think we should listen more to people like Dr Barry Klaassen, an A+E consultant at Ninewells hospital in Dundee. Speaking to the Courier last month, he pointed out how his unit had got on top of long waits by telling people with non-emergency cases that they were in the wrong place, and because of the good work of local GPs who only sent patients to A+E if it was necessary.
"It's not rocket science," he said – and the evidence backs him up; last week's figures showed that Ninewells sees 99% of patients within 4 hours.
What this tells me is something simple. Smarter government and better management can ease the A+E crisis. But we can help too – by treating our NHS with respect.
It's right that the NHS is free at the point of use. But we still have a responsibility to look after it as well.
I KNOW what happens when party political broadcasts come on the TV. There's a surge on the national grid as the entire country gets off the sofa to make a cup of tea.
But this being election time, we have to do them. And in the hope of trying to keep people interested, I decided last month to see if I could do something different and a bit more personal.
So me and my partner took a film crew to where I grew up in Fife and persuaded my Mum and Dad to make their big screen debut.
They weren't exactly champing at the bit to have cameras intrude in the house and to get foisted onto national TV. But I can be quite persuasive.
If nothing else, we got to have a nice walk in Elie harbour and a lunchtime drink at the Crusoe pub in Lower Largo, where much of my mis-spent youth was mis-spent.
And like a true pro, my mum then brilliantly faked surprise as I walked into the kitchen – as if it was every day that a cameraman, spotlights and a producer block the way to the fridge.
We were all a bit self-conscious but I think it made a point.
Too often politics can feel like something that's done by a remote group of people in Holyrood or Westminster.
Actually, politics is about your family, your home, what goes on in your local pub.
Just don't expect my parents to agree to sequel any time soon.
So many possible outcomes are being put in front of voters ahead of May's General Election, people making their ballot would be forgiven for being confused.
Vote him and get her, vote this and get that – the number of permutations being suggested by various parties and commentators is seemingly endless.
With that in mind, my only advice to people would be this; vote for the policies you want, vote for the candidate you agree with and vote for the government you prefer.
We're putting our arguments forward as the only party who will fight for a strong, united Britain and for a strong economy.
If you agree with those priorities, the Scottish Conservatives are the party for you.

'I'll be lucky to see f****** MOTD' John Virgo's potty mouth rant LIVE on air
SNOOKER commentator John Virgo has been forced to apologise after going on a shocking four-letter rant live on air during the World Championship.
The usually calm and softly spoken presenter lost his rag while covering the longest snooker frame in World Championship history.
It tool Mark Selby a staggering 76 minutes and 11 seconds to beat Marco Fu to the frame in the morning session of the semi-final at Sheffield's Crucible on Saturday.
Virgo, 70, appeared to be holding an off-mic conversation as he vented his frustration with the pace – but it was broadcast live to family homes up and down the country.
"He's embarrassed and apologetic"Graham Fry
The 1979 UK champion said: "I wanted to watch a bit of racing this afternoon.

Did you know that nearly 1,000 children under the age of 5 die every day from illness caused by contaminated water, poor sanitation and improper hygiene?
Driven to Help
Globally, one person in nine lacks access to clean water.
In partnering with World Vision, each website we build provides 3 years of clean water for a family of 4.
Smile Savvy has been inspired to partner with World Vision's WASH Program (Water, Sanitation and Hygiene) to make a difference and help bring clean, safe water to more children and families.
Providing clean water access to everyone on earth is an achievable goal.
Meet Violet
In a remote Zambian village, little Violet walked 2 miles, three times each day to get water for her entire family.
"Every morning I am up before the sun," said Violet. She made the daily journey while dreaming of going to school, and of a better life. Still, after hours of walking to collect water, Violet and her family were not out of harm's way. With every sip, shower, and usage of the water, they risked serious illness from contamination.
Today, with World Vision's help, Violet no longer treks to get water. World Vision established a clean-running well right in Violet's village. Since she's free from the burden of finding water every day and without the horrible consequences of unclean water, Violet can now plan for a future in school, and begin to live her childhood more peacefully.
Why World Vision?
World Vision is the largest non-governmental provider of clean water in the developing world. Working in some of the most remote areas in the globe, World Vision provides clean water and helps lift people out of poverty by extension. By specifically targeting critical areas, World Vision now provides access to clean water to one new person every 10 seconds.
World Vision has known for a long time that children can be powerful agents of positive change in communities, and because of this, a critical part of their WASH Programs in the developing world includes outreach to schools. In fact, they reach an amazing four new schools every day with clean water, sanitation, and hygiene.
Gifts to World Vision continue to benefit communities long after they are initially given. The UNC Water Institute conducted an independent study of water sources in Ghana and found nearly 80 percent of World Vision wells continue to function at a high level after 20 years, thanks largely to emphasis on community engagement.
World Vision is on pace to reach an estimated 50 million people with clean water by 2030.
Generous Donors Match Every Dollar Given to the Wash Program
Each dollar donated to World Vision for clean water is matched through generous donors, David and Dana Dornsife's five-year, 40 million grant to World Vision's WASH programs. Their gift ranked 5th in Forbe's list of the top philanthropic "Big Bets for Social Change."
World Vision's Clean Water Approach
Why does World Vision combine safe water with sanitation and hygiene?
Safe drinking water, improved sanitation, good hygiene, and good water resource management can lead to a reduction in child mortality, cut transmission of malaria, improve public health, and reduce extreme poverty. Providing hygiene education and sanitation facilities, like latrines and hand washing stations, dramatically multiplies the health benefits of safe water by helping to reduce disease transmission through fecal contamination and unwashed hands. Combining water, sanitation, and hygiene interventions can cut preventable child deaths by up to 57 percent, reduce chronic malnutrition by 40 percent, reduce school absenteeism among girls by 50 percent, and obtain an 8:1 economic return in target communities. So intertwined are the issues of water, sanitation and hygiene that they have been combined into one sector known in the global aid community as "WASH".
How does World Vision provide safe water, and how does World Vision ensure water service developed from its programming is sustainable and effective?
World Vision develops the most appropriate safe water source for each community they work in. Some of the technologies they use include drilling deep wells to reach aquifers far below ground, and hand-drilling wells when the water table is closer to the surface.
In larger communities, wells with a high water yield can be mechanized with solar pumps to reach more people. When fresh spring water is available, World Vision can protect and cap the spring to provide water to nearby communities. World Vision often uses rainwater-harvesting systems to provide clean water at schools.
World Vision's model contributes to community ownership and training in maintenance of water points so that water continues to flow long after our work concludes. Because World Vision invests an average of 15 years in a community, local people take ownership of the water points and learn how to repair them when they break down.
World Vision establishes water management committees to maintain and operate water points. These committees collect small fees to pay for repairs as needed — an approach that helps ensure communities have the knowledge and financial resources to keep their water points working smoothly.
What other long-term benefits does a clean water source provide?
World Vision doesn't stop at only providing clean water. Once wells are established, they also go into these same communities and provide sustainability and economic empowerment by teaching a trade to women who no longer spend a significant portion of their day collecting water for their families. Additionally, children are now free to go to school full-time.
How does World Vision improve sanitation and hygiene? How does this improve child and community health?
World Vision sanitation and hygiene interventions focus on promoting lasting behavior change. Instead of simply building latrines themselves, World Vision uses a participatory, community-driven approach that motivates households to build, maintain, and regularly use their own latrines. Hygiene education encourages community members to modify their hygiene habits by washing their hands and dishes with soap or ash, and practicing safe water handling and storage.
What is Smile Savvy doing to make a difference?
Smile Savvy is committed to the ongoing support of World Vision. With each website Smile Savvy sells, we donate 3 years of clean water for a family of 4.

They studied Wikie at Marineland Aquarium in Antibes, France.
"The results reported here show that killer whales have evolved the ability to control sound production and qualify as open-ended vocal learners", the scientists conclude.
Wikie was able to repeat a handful of words including "hello", "bye bye", "one, two" and "Amy".
Although mimicking human sounds is hard for mammals, whales can seemingly learn to reproduce them by hearing. "We will gain more if we try to understand the natural way each species communicates in its environment than if we try to teach a human language", he said, according to The Mirror. Using this command, an worldwide team of researchers have now taught Wikie to blow raspberries, mimic a creaky door, say hello and bye bye, and repeat numbers, all with her head above water.
Researchers say she might even be able to hold basic conversations with humans in the future.
The non-human sounds included a strong raspberry, a breathy raspberry, and a creaking door.

Melania Trump 'flies back after dodging Donald'
Melania, never in love with the spotlight that comes with being the first lady, appears to have possibly gone to ground again. Trump would not make the trip to the summit, citing unspecified scheduling and logistical issues.
"That is what makes it even more impressive - even though the morphology [of orcas] is so different, they can still produce a sound that comes close to what another species, in this case us, can produce", said Call.
Wikie was taught to copy sounds and words from her three-year-old calf Moana and humans.
In the wild, killer whales live in pods and are known to have different dialects, but there has been intense debate in the scientific community around how this came to be. She can also say "Amy" (her trainer) and "one, two, three".
"You can not pick a word that is very complicated because then I think you are asking too much - we wanted things that were short but were also distinctive", said Call. What's more, two human utterances and all of the human-produced orca sounds were managed on the first attempt - although only one human sound - "hello" - was correctly produced more than 50% of the time on subsequent trials. The findings suggest that a captive whale's ability to deftly mimic unfamiliar noises hints that imitation likely plays an important role in building orcas' unique "vocal traditions".
Wilkie's sounds were analyzed first, by human judges, and then using computer analysis.
During the research study, Wikie was trained to become familiar with unknown sounds.
From the water, a high-pitched squeak calls out "hello" but the sound is not coming from a human, it's a whale.

Mutemwa Lodge
Nestled on the edge of the majestic Zambezi River, Mutemwa Lodge is an anglers' and birders' paradise that offers an authentic and unique African experience. Mutemwa (meaning "place of the big trees") is located under a lattice of magnificent indigenous trees on the western bank of the Upper Zambezi River in Western Zambia, between Sesheke and Sioma.
Mutemwa's access to over 30km of secluded Zambezi River has been luring fishermen and adventurers alike for the past 15 years. Particularly appealing is the lodge's spectacular freshwater game fishing including a number of bream species, African Pike, barbel, and the uniquely African tigerfish, weighing up to 7kgs.
In the air, the spectacular birdlife at Mutemwa boasts 350-400 species that populate the rich, diverse habitat surrounding the lodge. Common sightings include White-Backed Night Heron and Half-Collared Kingfishers (just to name a few), various water bird species such as the African Finfoot, as well as numerous raptors. Guests can safely explore the trails between the towering trees of the forested islands, or alternatively employ one of the lodge's expert birding guides for an exceptional birding experience.
Free roaming wildlife from the neighbouring Sioma Ngwezi National Park include hippos, crocodiles and hyenas, while herds of elephants are common sights during the spring months. Other unforgettable experiences at the lodge include sunset cruises, river canoeing, guided cultural visits to the local Lozi villages, daytrips to the Ngonye or Sioma Falls,and memorable champagne breakfasts served on the gorgeous white banks of the Zambezi. Adventurers can experience the wilder side of Africa at the Liuwa Plain National Park where Mutemwa run mobile safaris in late November and December, as well as May and June.
Accommodation at Mutemwa Lodge comprises six permanent safari tents perched on teak decks, allowing the tranquil hums and rhythms of the African night through the tent walls. All safari tents are equipped with twin beds and en-suite bathrooms, and are river-facing, offering expansive views of the water. Guests can enjoy their meals around a campfire in the boma under a blanket of stars, or lounge in the library, swimming pool, main lounge area, or the beautiful deck that extends over the river.
The lodge hosts a maximum of 12 guests at a time, making it the perfect location for an intimate family or group getaway. Mutemwa is accessible all year round, however for a premium fishing experience guests should visit the lodge from May to November when fishing is best. For unsurpassed birding, enthusiastic birders should book during the emerald season, from December to April.

A STEM Pathway of Courses for K-12 with Robotics, Coding, and NGSS Engineering
Students love robots, their parents love STEM career options, and schools are finding their classes fill up fast with the Exploring Robotics STEM Pathway. Let us help your school offer a STEM K-12 pathway, or fill in the gaps for the grades that don't currently have STEM solutions.
All students need to understand coding and technology for STEM careers. If districts wait till high school, it's too late; students will have already chosen their career options. When students are introduced to fun coding and robots in K-8 they are more likely to choose math and science courses in high school. This pathway of courses helps districts to incrementally teach coding and STEM concepts from elementary through middle and high school. It prepares students to enter college ready to become the technicians and engineers who are creating and supporting new SMART technologies for homes, medicine, and industry.
Our mission is to find engaging robots that are rugged to stand up to classroom abuse, and then develop excellent supplemental curriculum to go with them that follows the 5E instructional model, and is aligned to standards. We help solve STEM problems by offering a turn-key solution of products and services to schools (public and private). We have solutions for every grade from K to 12 with STEM kits and robots for Every student.
Grades K-5 (Elementary) Courses:
Grades 6-8 (Middle School) Courses:
Grades 9-12 (High School) Courses:
Why Implement A K-12 STEM Pathway with Robots?
Students gain the foundation knowledge needed to pursue STEM careers with CS coding, NGSS engineering, and applied Math and Science. They invent things and also learn the fundamentals of electronics using fun kits with Arduino, Raspberry Pi and other control systems. A college and career component provides information about STEM careers and activities to inspire students to pursue possible STEM career paths.
The mobile robots in the pathway mimic the features of those used in warehouses, factories, security, hospitals, and NASA. Students control and operate robots and apply coding to solve real world situations. They build prototypes using 3D printers. Students also learn aerodynamics and hydrodynamics principles with a drone and hovercraft. Finally, the security robot ties it all together, and is a great capstone project with a robot that is driven around with a camera and arm using multiple control systems working together, with systems that being used in automated vehicles.
With this pathway, your students are prepared to enter college or technical schools with a strong foundation in Engineering and Computer Science concepts.

Starbucks started a phenomenon in the United States back in 1971. They found a way to get Americans to drink more coffee and pay a premium price. So what if you could buy the same drink but pay less ? Would you buy ?
Buyers of photography services over the years have been hoodwinked into believing that high quality meeting/event coverage costs more than they have in their budget. This premise isn't true and small independent studios like DCEventPhoto provide depth of experience and quality in the coverage not often found in today's marketplace at an affordable rate. The large national photography booking agencies don't have the ability to maintain quality.

On 6 April, Foreign Minister Edgars Rinkevics met with members of the Latvian-British Chamber of Commerce (LBCC) to discuss the chamber's activities in 2016, informed BC the Latvian MFA.
The Foreign Minister and LBCC's senior management staff exchanged views on the referendum scheduled for June on the UK's membership in the European Union. Minister Rinkevics said he was certain that the UK's remaining a member of the EU is important for Latvia from political and economic perspectives alike. It is important that an agreement was reached at the European Council in February confirming the EU's ability to jointly address complicated issues, the Minister noted. Edgars Rinkevics emphasised that the agreement is a compromise which lies in Latvia's strategic interests and expressed the hope that it will provide solid grounds for a positive outcome of the referendum in favour of the United Kingdom remaining in the EU.
