Relationships aren't easy, especially when they end. Here's a moment of moving on, captured beautifully.
One of the top 5 entries for December's Muse of the Month writing theme, with the cue "It's astonishing how we comment on change, as if change is something remarkable. On the contrary, not to change is unnatural, against nature." from Shashi Deshpande's That Long Silence.
She opened her eyes. It was foggy and dreary outside, just as winter days are, in Delhi. She blinked and looked at her mobile next to her on the bed. It was 10 AM.
"Sh*t, I overslept," she thought. But she didn't really want to get out of the warm blankets. The left side of her bed was empty as usual, as it has been for the last few days. She blinked again and stared at the ceiling, the murky thoughts and arguments with him came back to her hazy mind. It's been exactly a year since they started their relationship; a modern-day fairy tale, that is what she remarked to her friends.
But this was contemporary, a post-postmodern world and fairy tales do not exist. Not even in children's books anymore. They were deconstructed a long time back.
She thought of the same day last year, how it began with a brunch in one of Delhi's toniest places and where he proposed to her. That day was Christmas, and yet today it is not. The government has decided to mark it as Good Governance Day. Christmas was no longer about Santa Claus, Louis Armstrong's songs, plum cakes, and Jingle Bells.
It is now a day of mourning, of insidious subversion.
She sighed, and her thoughts meandered to ten years back when she was a strappy, spunky 20 year old. Her first break-up, she remembered then, was also on Christmas Day.
"It's astonishing how we comment on change, as if change is something remarkable. On the contrary, not to change is unnatural, against nature" – she remembered Shashi Deshpande's words from one her favourite novels, That Long Silence.
She blinked away that lonely tear threatening to make its way out of her big, lonely eyes. She sat up.
"Change – yes, that is what I will embrace," she said to herself. She threw her blankets, and went to her balcony. And within that foggy day, with the cold breeze blowing making her nose ruddy, she found a little bit of herself that she had lost. And she smiled; to herself, to the world.
"Merry Christmas," she softly let out her wish to the universe.

Justin Trevino, Pastor
A native of Las Cruces, Justin was born in 1985 to a loving Roman Catholic family. In 2003, at the age of 17, God was pleased, through a friend and classmate who shared the gospel with him, to pull him out of the bondage of sin, the emptiness of false religion, and the snare of seeking salvation by self-righteousness. Not only were his eyes opened to see the offensiveness of his sin and his deservingness of hell, he also saw the irresistible beauty and saving power of God's crucified and risen Son.
After his conversion to Christ, he joined a local church where he heard the Bible being taught by a faithful pastor and immediately acquired an insatiable desire to know and make known the saving truth that had set him free and led him to Christ. Between time spent at a California Bible College and the encouragement he received from several local pastors and churches to pursue the ministry, this desire matured into a longing to preach the Word and shepherd God's people. But being unsure of the calling and how to pursue this desire in a way that would result in long-term fruitfulness, Justin decided to relocate his family to San Antonio, Texas to submit and sit under the preaching ministry of Grace Community Church.
Upon contacting the church in 2012 to inform its leadership of the desire to move and join the church, the lead preaching pastor inquired of Justin's background, his thoughts about ministry, and his current situation in Las Cruces. What was intended to be a conversation informing the pastor of the plan to relocate to San Antonio turned into a conversation about remaining in Las Cruces to plant a church with the help, mentorship, and support of the church in San Antonio.
After heeding the pastor's counsel to pray and seek the will of God, it became clear to both Justin and his wife that they were to remain in Las Cruces and plant a church with the help and encouragement of the church in San Antonio. Grace Community Church in Las Cruces began in 2012 as they stepped out in faith, clinging to God's faithfulness and His unrelenting passion to glorify His Son, while also relying on the power of His Spirit and the sufficiency of His Word to save and sanctify a people for Himself.
Justin is joyfully married to Lanae, and together they've been blessed with five incredible children. As a bivocational pastor, he also works full-time for Stellar Solutions as a Systems Engineering Technical Advisor on White Sands Missile Range. Justin continues to serve the people of Grace Community Church, considering it one of the most sobering and joyful privileges to preach, pray, and watch as God saves, sanctifies, shapes, and satisfies the souls of His people by His Word.
"Who is sufficient for these things?"
-2 Corinthians 2:16

Brisbane ferry workers docked their ferries and walked off the job for 48 hours on 6 December, following a year of failed negotiations with their employer, Transdev.
They walked off again for 24 hours on 20 December and have flagged further industrial action in the new year.
All sections of the workforce are involved: masters, who drive the ferries, deck hands and customer service officers. For many striking workers, this is their first industrial action.
Transdev is a French multinational company that won the tender to operate Brisbane ferries six years ago, hugely undercutting its competitor. Ever since, Transdev workers have suffered pay cuts, worsening conditions and increased casualisation.
Several workers told Red Flag that the company's cost cutting is also compro-mising ferry maintenance and safety, putting workers and the public in dan-ger. Yet, as one worker at the 20 December meeting said, "I feel like I can't complain about poor maintenance for fear of the sack".
And the company is proposing to cut ferry crews from three people to two. The secretary of the Maritime Union of Australia Queensland branch, Bob Carne-gie, told Red Flag: "Ferries which carry a minimum of 100 people need cus-tomer service officers for the safe running of the ferries and we're not going to accept crews being knocked down to two".
Transdev's profits were $521 million in 2016. But it treats its workforce and the public with contempt.
Delegates and union representatives have met with Transdev 17 times this year to negotiate an enterprise bargaining agreement. But management has refused to acknowledge the workers' demands. As one worker told Red Flag: "Transdev are giving with one hand and taking with another".
Tracey Ellis, a master, recently resigned after working on the ferries for 11 years. She told Red Flag that since Transdev took over the ferries, she and other masters' pay had been cut by nearly 25 percent. "Every time we get a pay increase the company manipulates the rosters to take that away", she said.
Transdev has also avoided paying workers their travel allowances by rostering them to start their shift a minute later than required to qualify for them.
With its contract ending in May, one worker commented: "It's a last bid by the company to rip as much money out before the contract ends".

A few cups of hibiscus tea a day may reduce blood pressure and offer cardiovascular benefits for people at risk of developing hypertension, says a new study from Tufts University.
Three 240 mL servings a day of tea made with hibiscus (Hibiscus sabdariffa L.) were associated with a 7.2 mmHg reduction in systolic blood pressure and a 3.1 mmHg reduction in diastolic blood pressure, compared to 1.3 and 0.5 mmHg in the placebo group, according to findings published in The Journal of Nutrition.
Researchers from the Jean Mayer USDA Human Nutrition Research Center on Aging at Tufts University report that this is the first placebo-controlled clinical trial to study if hibiscus tea, in an amount easily attained from the diet, may affect blood pressure.
"Hypertension is a major risk factor for cardiovascular disease and is associated with substantial morbidity and mortality, estimated to account for 35 per cent of myocardial infarction and stroke, 49 per cent of heart failure, and 24 per cent of premature mortality," wrote the researchers, led by Dr Diane McKay.
"The dietary change assessed in this study, i.e. regularly incorporating 3 servings/d of hibiscus tea into the diet, effectively reduces blood pressure in pre- and mildly-hypertensive adults.
"This strategy may be useful in preventing the progression to moderate or more severe hypertension, potentially reducing the subsequent risk of developing cardiovascular disease," they added.
Study details
Dr McKay and her co-workers recruited 65 adult with pre- and mild hypertension, and aged between 30 and 70, to participate in their randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial.
Subjects were randomly assigned to consume either three servings of brewed hibiscus tea per day or a placebo drink for six weeks. At the end of the study people in the hibiscus tea group displayed an average reduction of 7.2 mmHg in their systolic blood pressure, compared to 1.3 mmHg in the placebo group. A slight but not significant decrease in diastolic blood pressure was also recorded in the hibiscus tea group.
The benefits of hibiscus tea appeared to be greater in people who had higher systolic blood pressure at the start of the study.
Commenting on the potential mechanism, Dr McKay and her co-workers note that previous studies indicated that hibiscus may act by relaxing blood vessels, and this may be linked to calcium channels, or inhibition of the angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE), thereby preventing the conversion of angiotensin I to the potent vasoconstrictor, angiotensin II.
There is also evidence in the scientific literature that hibiscus may act as a diuretic. Another possible explanantion for the apparent benefits is related to the anthocyanin content of H. sabdariffa.
"The specific attributes of H. sabdariffa to cardiovascular health, including its ability to lower BP and its potential hypocholesterolemic effects, are not well understood and further research in this area is warranted," added the researchers.

Welcome to the week of Love! This week, people will be hard pressed to find content on the blogosphere that is not related to some aspect of love – its creation, its maintenance, the problems it creates, and what happens after it ends. We will also see a whole spectrum of articles on tips and tricks for single people on finding that "perfect someone", not to mention an explosion of commercials and advertisements on match-making sites. Yet, in all these centuries, through all the advancements of humans, we would be hard pressed to find a single cohesive definition that is universally applicable and satisfying.
Love, across many aspects of life, is considered to be one of the driving forces of human existence for many reasons. It is believed by many to be the be most important thing in life; the glue that holds people together in social bonds. But, if you ask ten different people the question, "What is love?", you are likely to get ten different answers from different perspectives. Which ones are right, and, which ones are wrong? Are there even right and wrong sides to this issue, or is it just all a matter of opinion?
Cultural Philosophies
Great thinkers in almost all known civilizations in human history have discussed and debated the idea of love. In the Western world, ancient Greek philosophers spent a considerable amount of time discussing the ideas of philia (friendship), storge (familial affection), eros (passionate love), and, agape (Divine, selfless love). Ancient Romans talked about "amare" (to love), a word that eventually evolved into the word for love in Spanish, French, Italian, and other Latin-based languages. With the rise in popularity of Abrahamic Judeo-Christian religions, these "pagan" ideas of love became deeply intertwined with the concepts of purity, sin and salvation.
On the other side of the world, in Eastern cultures and traditions, the idea of love has been debated and discussed for many centuries also. Scholars generally agree that the love seems to originate from religious and/or spiritual beliefs, from where it spread to other areas in life. Languages and cultures in ancient Persia, China, Japan, Pakistan, India and other parts of Asia and the Middle-East, all have a slew of words to describe love in its brightest glory to its deepest depths of misery, usually in relation to the Divine. We know this through records of beautiful poetry, elegantly crafted prose, paintings, reliefs, sculptures and other artistic treasures, which have managed to survive through history. In these traditions, love is a necessary part of human life, because it is a familial duty, a divine imperative for the greater good, and a necessary condition for the enlightenment of the Soul.
The Evolutionary Perspective
From an evolutionary perspective, the idea of love — the "bonding" that happens between people — is a byproduct of the two purposes of human species, survival and reproduction. As a species, we have evolved to have different sexual organs and reproductive systems with different costs, to maximize the genetic diversity available to us via sexual reproduction. In other words, the reproductive "costs" of having a child are different for men and women, which translates into men and women developing different strategies to attract the best mates.
When we meet potential mates, we evaluate them based on the resources they can provide for us in the short-term, and in the long-term. For men, the cost of reproduction is really low, because the male body can produce an almost infinite number of sperm throughout the course of life, starting at puberty. Thus, the most important criteria are those characteristics that show fertility, virility, and health – the symbols of youth – because they are more likely to create a greater number of healthier offspring. For women, the cost of reproduction is really high, because women are not only born with a limited number of eggs, but they lose these eggs over a lifetime. They also have limited time in which these eggs can be fertilized. In addition to that, each pregnancy lasts between 9 and 10 months, meaning that during this time, a woman is physically incapable of getting pregnant again. This reduces the number of potential children a woman can have, to one per year (not counting cases with multiple births). For women, the traits that are important to them are those that would ensure the availability of resources for them and their offspring.
Where does love fit into all of this? It is a just a natural consequence of these processes. In the course of this evolutionary reproductive dance, mixed in with other evolutionary mechanisms such as reciprocal altruism, and survival of the fittest, "love" is an interpersonal bond that just happens to happen.
The Chemistry of Love
Many scientists posit that the idea of love is a series of chemical reactions that happens in our bodies because of hormones. When we meet someone who piques our interest, our bodies release many chemicals. The two that are important for this discussion are oxytocin, often called "the cuddle and trust" hormone, and, vasopressin, which regulates blood pressure and general cardio vascular functioning. Oxytocin, which is released in larger quantities in women, and vasopressin, which is released in larger quantities of men, are though to induce feelings of bonding and attachment. These two hormones trigger the release of dopamine, which causes feelings of euphoria, joy and bliss. In the first stages of "love", these two chemicals are also associated with lower serotonin levels, which could explain why we might sometimes feel obsessive or manic when we are "madly in love" with another person. Other chemicals that are also associated with the process of love are norepinephrine, cortisol, and testosterone. The combinations of varying degrees of these chemicals is what love is.
Love: The Psychology
How we personally interpret these evolutionary, biological and chemical signals, is studied in the fields of psychology and other social sciences. Over the course of the last century, psychologists from many areas of specialization have been studying love extensively. For instance, social psychologist, Elaine Hatfield, considered to be a pioneer and way-paver of research in interpersonal relationships describes two types of love in her research. She defines passionate love as:
"A state of intense longing for union with another. Passionate love is a complex functional whole including appraisals or appreciations, subjective feelings, expressions, patterned physiological processes, action tendencies, and instrumental behaviors. Reciprocated love (union with the other) is associated with fulfillment and ecstasy. Unrequited love (separation) with emptiness, anxiety, or despair".
The other kind of love is companionate love – genuine affection and liking for another person characterized by mutual respect and trust.
Another well-known theory from psychology is Robert Sternberg's Triangle Theory of Love. According to this theory, the ideal, or "consummate" love, is a combination of three key factors: passion, intimacy, and, commitment. The absence of one of these factors can still lead to relationships, but the most stable relationships will, or should have all three factors.
Other popular theories of love in psychology include Lee's Love Styles, a six factor theory that is based on the Ancient Greek concepts of storge, philia and eros, and, the Two-Factor Theory, which divides the idea of love into its physiological and emotional components.
The Answers from Neuroscience
Modern neuroscience may soon be giving us answers to the question that plagues most human beings at some point in our lives: "What exactly is love?".
Helen Fisher and her team, and many other neuroscientists from all over the world seem to be in somewhat of a frenzied discovery period, made possible by technological breakthroughs in imaging tools. Through fMRI studies, we are finding out that male and female brains can differentiate between romantic love and self-less love, and respond differently; the effects of different forms of love on the human brain are very different. We are finding out that men and women are influenced differently. We are finding out that it can be addictive. Studies on mirror neurons in the brain are even discovering that feeling and acting on love is a cognitive process that can be controlled up to a certain extent!
So, What is Love?
At the end of the day, there doesn't seem to be a definitive answer on what love is. While medical and technological advances are helping people who are in pursuit of the answer to this timeless mystery, they also seem to be raising more questions and issues about love than can be answered. But, are we kidding ourselves? Most of us can relate to the ideas of falling in love, and being in love. We can even describe in great detail all of love's splendid and torturous aspects. But, if someone came to us and asked us to define it, we would probably spend at least a few minutes hemming and hawing about its definition. Is it even possible to answer this question in any satisfying way? Will we as a species ever be able to articulate the essence of what seems to be a magnificent influence on all aspects of life? Are we even capable of that? What do you think?

WARNING: The following post is NOT warm and fuzzy. Proceed at your own discretion.
Depression is a fickle bitch.
It's PMS, road rage, PTSD after returning from Iraq, or staring down at your beautiful newborn and feeling…nothing. It's partial paralysis after a stroke, a blown-out knee, an unwritten novel, failed dreams. Constant pain from a herniated disc, dialysis, gluttony, the inability to leave the womb-like safety of your home.
Depression is the faded ink stain on your favorite shirt, the dormant stage of a daffodil bulb. Or a zombie apocalypse.
Depression is the dress you buy for when you're 5 pounds thinner, only to find it years later crumpled on the floor in the back of your closet.
Depression is failure for not being able to "snap out of it." It's unfulfilled potential, too many hours of sleep, and medical bills for undiagnosed ailments. Relationships gone sour, regurgitated food, clogged arteries, and one too many glasses of wine.
Depression says No before getting smacked across the face by a parent. Depression says No to the babysitter who molested you, the assailant who raped you. Depression says No to the men you try to please to fill the hole. No to extra work hours in place of family. No to your child about…well, anything.
Depression says You're Not Worthy. How could you be with Hep B-tainted blood, tract marks on your arms, semen deep inside you from someone who shares your DNA? Or simply that your sexual preference is different from mine.
Depression says It'll Never Get Better. Because you've tried everything. Because the meds can only do so much. Because cognitive therapy doesn't work when your words and thoughts are diseased. And in response to all those success stories about others who have overcome this beast, you scream, "My God, My God, why have You forsaken Me?"
Depression says I Don't Love You. I never wanted you. I wish I had aborted you. I beat you for your own good. It's how I was raised. It's the only way I know. It runs in the family.
Depression says You Could Have Done Better. Because a B+ is not an A, 2nd Place is no Winner, and if only you had worked harder…If only… If only you were thinner, smarter, taller…
Depression seduces, giving you that tingly feeling in your groin. It brings you to that moment when morals, doubts, marital statuses are forgotten. Depression gets you completely naked, ready, and willing…and then whispers, "I don't want you," before slinking away.
Depression leaves scars in the form of cutting, tattoos, or grooves in the brain like well-trodden areas of carpet. It can be obvious and deafening like angry feedback during a concert. Silent and seething like a small gas leak. Or brains splattered all over the wallpaper you never wanted in the first place.
It's selfish and maddening and sensitive and organic. It's suffocating, lacking in compassion, intuitive and creative. It's paralyzing and hopeless and cerebral and methodical. It's both powerless and powerful. Bright light when you remember how you once were; darkness over how you are now. It's prison, then parole. Purgatory. An apathetic Heaven or Hell.
It's the underachieving, New Age pessimist and the overachieving, Mensa tyrant. The insanely talented Oxycontin-addicted Narcissist. The gold-medal winning, anal-retentive introvert who wonders, What now?
Depression is Jim Carrey, Eric Clapton, Agatha Cristie, Edgar Degas, and Princess Di. It's Reddit co-founder, Aaron Swartz, J.K. Rowling, Marilyn Monroe, John Hinkley, Jr. It's "That which doesn't kill us makes us stronger" Nietzsche, (but if it does end up killing us, it's only because we're desperate for the pain to go away). Depression is Mike Tyson, Mike Wallace, Terry Bradshaw, and Oscar-winning director, Malik Bendjelloul.
Depression is the doctor, the artist, the addict, the mother, the Vet, the student, the Walmart cashier.
Depression is the unemployed and the employed, the psychiatrist who treats you for symptoms, the terminally ill, the convict, the mortician who will dress your dead body. Depression is your parent, your child, your spouse, your grandfather.
Depression is a petulant child throwing a tantrum in the middle of the supermarket on a dog day afternoon. "See me," it cries, before retreating once again into invisibility.

Our blog in the past has included a few items in relation to The Covenanters, those brave saints who prayed and died on Scotland's heath for their holy Faith. They believed in Christ as Saviour and Only King of The Church! No Pope and No Prelacy was their Cry
Under Charles the Second, Claverhouse and his brutal dragoons spilt the blood of an innumerable number of them on the heather.afterwards!"
A Covenanter
I'se never uphaud I was a saint
I've had my daft days like the lave;
An' de'il be in't, can I repent;
I's bear the wyte o't yont the grave.
But when the State, wi' murderous dirk
Held to my breist, threeps doun my thrapple
That I maun lea' auld Scotland's Kirk,
Sit under Prelates in the chapel;
Forsweer the sacred Covenant
Oor faithers made in bygane years,
An' worship as the King does want!
Shall this be tholed? Na, damn the fears!
Kings may be Kings by richt divine;
The King shall hae his richts; but dod!
He'll get them when he gies me mine
An' mells na wi the things o' God.
The men o' wrath gaed forth to kill;
The red dragoons were at their posts;
I left my yowes upon the hill,
An' listed wi' the Lord o' hosts.
For Cov'nant folk the sword had drawn
To meet the oppressors front to front;
Gin they be dour, weel, we'se be thrawn
We'll up an' gi'e them dunt for dunt.
I saw the tulzie at Drumclog,
Whaur mony gat the wage o' sin;
We drave them ram-stam through the bog,
An' faith! They werena sweer tae rin.
Claver'se himsel' was gar'd to ride –
Oh! prood were we that day an' big –
Wae's me! wae's me! for sinfu' pride
We gat oor paiks at Bothwell Brig.
Sae hunted like the tods an' brocks
Ower muir an' moss by sodgers driven,
Oor kirk is 'mang the roofless rocks
Oor prayers gang stracht to God in Heaven.
He sees the creatures through an' through;
He kens He made us o' the dust;
He kens oor he'rts, though steeve, are true;

Property crimes can vary from minor offense (petty larceny) to embezzlement. It is critical to understand the charge exactly, as well as any evidence that exists to support the charge.
In many property crimes cases, Court and District Attorney are concerned with restitution of money. If restitution is made, then any jail time can be minimized.

Romantic vintage waves are one of my favorite tricks to pump up the drama in the hair department!
These waves look challenging but are actually amazingly simple. They give a glamorous vibe to any outfit and will make you look effortlessly glamorous.
I recently styled these waves for a black tie event, and they were a big hit. I think there is something refreshing and modern about bringing back vintage looks.
Follow these steps and add a little glamour to your life!
- 1.5 inch curling iron
- Hairspray
- Wide Toothed Comb
1. Divide your hair into two sections (top & bottom) and clip the top section up and out of the way
2. Curl the bottom section towards your face in one inch sections
3. When you release each curl make sure it stays intact and cools while still curled
4. Once the entire bottom section is curled, hairspray the entire section
5. Repeat step 2 and curl the top section towards your face
6. If you have bangs, style them as normal (I gently bend my bangs away from my face)
7. Once all hair is curled, hair spray again and allow the curls to cool for a few minutes
8. Once curls are completely cooled, take a wide tooth comb and gently comb through hair from top to bottom. The curls should start to melt into each other.
9. Slowly comb your curls until the curls have reached your desired style
10. Try adding a bright lip or a fun hair clip to pull the whole look together!

3.5 out of 5 stars
For Xbox 360, Playstation 3
Style: Action/adventure
Rating: M for Mature
--Fun successor to "Prototype." Brings back monster mayhem.
--Mutant powers and plot cutscenes still look cool.
--Mechanics, game engine feel rehashed and unoriginal.
If you feel like you've played "Prototype 2" before, you're not alone.
While there's nothing revolutionary about the latest in the "Prototype" series, "Prototype 2" is a solid action-adventure game with a few enjoyable mechanics.
"Prototype 2" revolves around Sgt. James Heller, a New York man who lost his family to a bioterrorism outbreak and is transformed into a powerful mutant by a terrifying virus. He must go around the Big Apple tearing up as much as possible while finding the villains responsible for this latest threat to New York.
The plot obviously uses tons of tropes and storytelling cliches, but feels fresh enough to stand on its own and is occasionally intriguing. Gameplay doesn't diverge much from the first "Prototype," though some of the menus and powers are different. Heller feels superpowerful as he runs, jumps, and glides across New York. What's more, the first "Prototype" protagonist makes some key appearances throughout the game.
"Prototype 2" is entertaining in a popcorn-filler sort of way. I liked the fact that Heller, a black protagonist, didn't feel stereotypical even when he was cursing (And the game includes plenty of cursing). His powers look awesome and Radical Entertainment put a lot of effort into "Prototype 2" cutscenes.
What bothers me about this game is its lack of innovation. I played this game last year. It was called "Infamous 2."
I enjoy the sandbox world-action games, but I'd like to feel challenged by them instead of merely going through the motions.
Case in point: Heller must collect random recordings, kill or consume random army units, and destroy various mutant spawn points throughout New York. While a lot of games keep these sidequests hidden, "Prototype 2" practically gives away each sidequest location through a radar signal if you look at your sidequest collectibles in the menu.
Though it's nice to get a hint every once in a while, that feels way too easy.
That's not to say "Prototype 2" is a bad game, but there's not enough original content to make this title stand out from the rest of the AAA action titles out over the last five or six years.

Please complete the form below and we'll contact you about your appraisal.
Woolley & Wallis have been instructed to let 115 Tollgate Road, a warehouse unit formally occupied by City Plumbing and more recently by Molly's Den for an antique emporium.
The modern, portal frame unit which incorporates two loading doors within its front elevation and a further loading door off a small yard to the side of the building, is currently being refurbished by the owners to include new cladding to its frontage as well as a number of other upgrades. The building provides ground floor warehousing of 8,029 sq ft (746 sq m) together with mezzanine storage of 3,197 sq ft (297 sq m). The unit comes with 10 allocated parking spaces. Given its proximity to Southampton Road and the City Centre and its prominence to Tollgate Road, the unit would be well suited to trade counter / showroom or perhaps leisure uses (subject to planning).
The premises are available on a new lease for a term to be agreed at a rent of £49,950 per annum.

This is the first in what will be a several part series that will cover all my favorite "Best Of" categories for 2008...the first being my Best Deal From A Card Show.
Although I'm a Packer fan, I couldn't pass up this purple and gold beauty. This is Alan's fourth year card from the Topps 1970 Football set and set me back $2.00 at a card show in Shoreline, Washington. My love of this card, and Alan in general, is that he is the personification of my two of my favorite things, football and politics. Many of you may not know that along with being a member of the NFL Hall of Fame, Mr. Page also sits on the Minnesota Supreme Court.
The card does have what seems to be some tape residue on either side but the thing that I really love about this card is the bright almost-neon orange back. The scan doesn't really do the card justice...you could wear this card dear hunting!

As A Vikings fan - I am very happy that a Packer fan can see the joy in a Page card. I was at a card shop y-day and plucked a Page card in a Bears Uni out of a dime bin.
Nice pick up. I really like the 1970 Football cards. They were the first football cards I ever saw when I was a kid that I thought were old. This was probably in 1975.

Financial Aid, Awards and Scholarships
Office of Student Financial Assistance
One Stop for Student Success Services
100 Campus Avenue Building
Financial Aid for Undergraduate Students
There are many programs of assistance available from private, state, federal, and university funds. We are committed to helping students,within the limits of available funds, gain a college education even if their resources are limited. To receive consideration for most programs, students and parents must complete the appropriate forms. All information provided remains confidential.
Understanding which programs are available to students is complicated by the many state, federal, and local agencies that set regulations for the use of the funds. Students, as consumers of these funds, have the right under law to receive clear, accurate information concerning aid programs.
For more information, contact the One Stop or check online at MiamiOH.edu/OneStop.
Need-Based Assistance
The One Stop can assist students in obtaining need-based financial aid including: grants, gift aid awarded to the student that does not need to be repaid; loans, awards that require repayment; federal work-study, part-time employment that helps students meet the cost of college and participate in community service; and scholarships, a type of gift aid awarded to students that does not need to be repaid. Any awarded aid is combined to meet a student's financial need. The total amount of aid a student receives is based on a family's financial circumstances. To be considered for all need-based financial aid, new first-year students, returning and new transfer students must complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) by February 1. The FAFSA must be completed every year (fafsa.gov).
A student cannot receive any combination of aid, including loans, grants, federal work-study, and scholarships that exceeds the cost of attendance. If the total amount of financial aid exceeds the cost of attendance, the amount of aid will be reduced.
Private Loans
Miami will certify a private loan from any lender. Terms, fees, and borrowing limits of private loans differ. The yearly amount cannot exceed the annual cost of attendance minus other financial aid and resources. Private loans are not federally guaranteed and do not require that you file the FAFSA. For more information about obtaining a private loan, visit MiamiOH.edu/loans.
Student Loan Code of Conduct
The guiding principles for ensuring the integrity of the student aid process and the ethical conduct of employees in regard to student loan practices are provided in the Miami University Student Loan Code of Conduct by visiting MiamiOH.edu/loans and clicking the "Student Loan Code of Conduct" link.
Federal Work-Study (FWS) Employment
Federal Work-Study is a federal financial aid program that is awarded based on financial need computed from information provided on the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). If a student indicated an interest in work-study on the FAFSA and is eligible, the student's award package may include FWS. A student benefits from having Federal Work-Study because FWS earnings are not calculated in the Expected Family Contribution (EFC) on the following year's FAFSA. Additionally, employers often prefer hiring FWS students since a portion of the student's wage is paid with federal funds.
Summer Aid
Starting in April, students will be notified of their eligibility for summer aid upon registering for summer classes if they have a Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) on file with Miami University and if they have completed all outstanding financial aid requirements.
Summer financial aid is typically based on any remaining aid eligibility the student has from the current academic year. Generally, students are only eligible for additional federal student loan funds if they have the number of hours required to advance in grade level by the end of the spring semester. Further, students cannot use their Miami scholarships for summer terms unless the scholarship was awarded specifically for summer study. If all federal loan eligibility has been exhausted, the student may want to consider a federal Direct PLUS loan or a private loan. More information regarding financial aid can be found at MiamiOH.edu/OneStop.
Aid for Another University or Study Abroad Program
If you are a degree-seeking student at Miami University and you wish to obtain aid to attend another university or a study abroad program during Fall Semester, Winter Term, Spring Semester or Summer term, or you are simultaneously enrolled at Miami and another institution, you must complete a Consortium/Contractual Agreement in order to receive financial aid and scholarships. The Consortium/Contractual Agreement is available at MiamiOH.edu/OneStop/forms.
A completed Consortium/Contractual Agreement is required to receive aid if you are studying abroad or at another university or if you have you have borrowed loans that you want to remain in an in-school deferment status. Completing this agreement can be a very long process, and if at all possible, should be started at least two months prior to studying at another institution. For important study abroad financial aid information, requirements, and deadlines, select "Other Financial Aid Information" from the "Your Money" tab of MiamiOH.edu/OneStop. Then select the Study Abroad link.
Other Sources of Aid
State Assistance for Non-Ohio Residents
Most states have student assistance programs. Contact the student assistance agency in your state for information on what aid is available and how to apply.
Assistance for Veterans
Veterans who intend to enroll at Miami should contact the Veterans Affairs (VA) Administration at 888-442-4551 to determine their GI Bill eligibility, and for general information and application. To apply for benefits, complete the online application at https://www.va.gov/education/how-to-apply/. Veterans also need to submit an enrollment form to the Veterans Certifying Official at Miami MiamiOH.edu/veterans.
To be assured of advance payment, initial paperwork should be submitted to the Veterans Affairs Administration 45 days before classes begin. For more information or to contact the Veterans Certifying Official at Miami visit MiamiOH.edu/veterans, email firstname.lastname@example.com, or call 513-529-0001.
Additional financial assistance through programs described in this section is available to most veterans.
Student Employment
The Department of Human Resources coordinates all student employment and student payroll registration. The two types of student employment at Miami are Federal Work-Study (FWS) and regular wage employment. Job classifications and wage rates are the same for each, but they are financed differently. University employers do their own hiring and students are responsible for finding a job. Current job openings may be found at miamioh.hiretouch.com. Information about job classifications, wage rates, and how to apply for jobs is available online at MiamiOH.edu/studentemployment.
Eligibility for Financial Assistance
Programs based on financial need, funded by state and federal aid programs, are administered by Miami. To be eligible for these programs, you must:
- be a U.S. citizen or eligible non-citizen as defined on the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA);1
- be registered with Selective Service, if you're a male (you must register between the ages of 18 and 25);
- be enrolled as a regular student working in an eligible program;
- be able to demonstrate financial need (for most programs); see Applying for Assistance below.
- maintain Satisfactory Academic Progress (SAP);
- certify on the FAFSA that you are not in default on any federal student loan or owe a refund on a federal grant;
- have a valid Social Security number (unless you are from the Republic of Marshall Islands, Federated States of Micronesia, or the Republic of Palau);
- certify that you have not been convicted of an offense involving either the possession or sale of illegal drugs that occurred while receiving Title IV federal aid;
- certify that you are not subject to an involuntary civil commitment following incarceration for a sexual offense (as determined under the FBI's Crime Reporting Program);
- certify on the FAFSA that you will use federal student financial aid only for educational purposes.
International students who do not meet citizenship requirements for federal aid programs should contact the International Student and Scholar Services for information about financial assistance.
Applying for Assistance
Students must complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) to be considered for all need-based scholarships and financial aid. Complete the FAFSA online at fafsa.gov. To be considered a priority applicant for all need-based financial aid, new first-year students must complete the FAFSA by the December 1 Priority I deadline or February 1 Priority II deadline (for returning students and new transfer students, the deadline is February 1). The FAFSA must be completed every year.
Determining Your Financial Aid Package
A student's financial aid package is processed in this order:
1. The student's Cost of Attendance (COA) is estimated based on state of residence, the campus that will be attended, and enrollment status. The COA includes instructional and general fees; additional fees for technology, facilities, transit, and Armstrong Student Center; estimates for room and board. The COA also includes estimates for books and supplies, transportation, and miscellaneous living expenses such as hygiene, recreation, and entertainment.
2. After receiving the FAFSA data from the US Department of Education, the reported Expected Family Contribution (EFC) that reflects the family's ability to contribute to educational costs, is used to calculate the student's eligibility for need-based aid. The EFC is then subtracted from the COA to determine the student's financial need.
3. Once financial need is determined, the student is considered initially for grant eligibility, then for loan and federal work-study, depending on the student's indicated preference on the FAFSA. Students who submit the FAFSA to the Federal Processing Center by December 1 or February 1 for new first-year students and February 1 for returning students and new transfer students are the first groups to be awarded aid.
Applicants are ranked in order of greatest need and awards are made on the basis of the amount of financial need.
Students who are awarded scholarships will be sent a separate Scholarship Award Notification.
Students with significant changes in family income (death, loss of job, disability, divorce, or other extenuating circumstances) after filing their FAFSA may request a re-evaluation of their application. To see if circumstances qualify for review, please contact the One Stop to speak with a specialist.
Standards of Satisfactory Academic Progress (SAP)
Basic Requirements
If students receive federal financial aid, they are required to maintain satisfactory progress toward their degree. Satisfactory progress is measured with two standards, qualitative, which is grade-based and quantitative, which is time-related. Read the Standards of Satisfactory Academic Progress (SAP) Policy Standards, which outlines Miami University's policy for monitoring a student's progress at MiamiOH.edu/OneStop/sap.
Change in Enrollment
A student's initial award is typically based on full-time, full-year enrollment. Students must inform the One Stop in writing or via myMiami on the "My Bill and Aid" tab if their intended enrollment is less than full time or less than a full year. Changes in enrollment could require adjustments to aid before funds can disburse to a student's Bursar account. Usually, a student must be enrolled for at least six hours to be eligible for any type of aid.
In the case of students who change their enrollment prior to the end of the drop/add period, their grant(s), scholarship(s), and/or loan eligibility will be recalculated. Students will receive a revised award notification listing any changes in their aid package.
At the end of the last day to drop a course without a grade, the student's enrollment will be frozen and the financial aid for the semester will be based on the number of credit hours the student is enrolled at that time. Students should make sure they are enrolled for all the classes (including sprint courses) they intend to take for the semester by the last day to drop a course without a grade for the full-term. Please refer to the University Academic Calendar for specific dates.
Withdrawal from the University
The U.S. Department of Education expects that Federal aid recipients complete all courses attempted and paid for with Federal aid. Therefore, if students received federal assistance from any federal aid program (Federal Direct Loan, Federal Pell Grant, Federal TEACH Grant, Federal SEOG, Federal Direct PLUS Loan for graduate students, or Federal Direct PLUS Loan for parents) and withdrew from the University during a semester that they began attendance, Miami is required to determine the amount of federal aid that they have earned as of their withdrawal date.
The percentage of the semester completed is determined by dividing the number of calendar days that the student completed as of the withdrawal date by the total number of calendar days in the semester. Scheduled breaks of at least five consecutive days are excluded from the total number of calendar days in the semester.
If a student notifies the One Stop in writing that they are withdrawing for any reason, Miami will be required to complete a withdrawal calculation and a student's aid may be adjusted for the semester. The withdrawal date will be the date that official notification was provided to Miami of the student's intent to withdraw. The percentage of federal aid that was earned by the student is equal to the percentage of the semester that was completed, as of the withdrawal date, if this date occurs on or before completion of 60% of the semester. If the withdrawal date is after completion of 60% of the semester, the student will have earned 100% of the federal aid and no adjustments will be made to their federal aid for the semester.
If a student stops attending classes and does not notify the One Stop that they are withdrawing, the student is considered to have unofficially withdrawn. Unofficial withdrawals are recorded when grades have been posted by the University Registrar's Office and the student record shows that the student received all (or a combination of) F, I, N, W and/or Y grades for the semester. A return of Title IV withdrawal calculation is performed based on the last known date of attendance provided by the professor. If a date is not provided by the professor, the withdrawal calculation is based on the midpoint (50%) of the semester. Once the withdrawal calculation is performed, a portion of federal aid may be revoked from the student's account at Miami and returned to the federal government. This process typically results in the student owing money to the University. When a withdrawal calculation has been completed and aid has been adjusted, students are notified in writing by the Office of Student Financial Assistance. Adjustments may also be made to the student's state and university awards if required.
Miami will return all unearned aid to the U.S. Department of Education for the student. The unearned aid will be credited to the outstanding balances on federal loans made to the student, or on behalf of the student for the semester in which the return was required. The order for the return of aid is as follows: Federal Direct Unsubsidized Loan, Federal Direct Subsidized Loan, Federal Perkins Loan, Federal Direct PLUS Loan for graduate students, Federal Direct PLUS Loan for parents (received on behalf of the student), Federal Pell Grant, Federal SEOG, and Federal TEACH Grant.
Withdrawing will also affect a student's Satisfactory Academic Progress and may jeopardize future federal financial aid eligibility. To make sure a student understands the possible impact on financial aid, a student should consult with the One Stop prior to withdrawing from the university.
Academic Suspension or Dismissal
Students suspended or dismissed for academic reasons may not receive financial aid until they are re-enrolled. When students apply for re-enrollment, they should contact the One Stop for information about applying for aid.
Federal and State Grants
Students with a high level of financial need are typically eligible for grants. Generally, a student receives grant funds in combination with loans and/or federal work-study. Students with a disability may also be eligible for grants from the Bureau of Vocational Rehabilitation.
The following grant programs are awarded on the basis of a family's financial circumstances; no repayment is required.
Federal Pell Grant - A grant provided by the federal government to qualified undergraduate students who demonstrate exceptional financial need. Pell Grant amounts can change yearly and students must complete the FAFSA annually for renewal consideration. The maximum Federal Pell Grant award is $6195 for the 2019-2020 award year. The amount awarded will depend on financial need, enrollment status (full-time or part-time), and attendance for a full academic year or less. Students can receive the Federal Pell Grant for no more than 12 semesters.
Federal Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grant (SEOG) - Federal grant administered by Miami University for high financial need students who are also eligible for Pell Grants. A limited number of these grants are given in combination with Pell Grant, loan, and/or federal work-study.
Federal Teacher Education Assistance for College and Higher Education (TEACH) Grant - Federal grant program awarding up to $4,000 per year to a student who agrees to serve as a full-time teacher in a high-need field in a public or private elementary or secondary school that serves students from low-income families. A TEACH Grant recipient must teach for at least four academic years within eight calendar years of completing the program of study for which the TEACH Grant was received. IMPORTANT: If a student fails to complete this teaching obligation, all amounts of the TEACH Grant that were received will be converted to a Federal Direct Unsubsidized Stafford Loan. This loan and all accrued interest must be repaid to the U.S. Department of Education. Interest will be charged from the date the grant(s) was disbursed.
To qualify for a TEACH Grant, a student must have placed above the 75th percentile of a standardized college admission test (ACT/SAT/GRE); OR have a high school cumulative 3.25 GPA and must maintain the 3.25 GPA throughout the student's academic program and indicate a strong interest in teaching; OR be a current teacher returning to pursue an advanced degree. The student may be either an undergraduate or graduate enrolled full or part-time. Award amounts are prorated based on enrollment.
A student must complete a TEACH Grant Agreement to Serve (ATS) each year and complete TEACH Entrance Counseling each year to receive a TEACH Grant. For information about the high-need fields and schools serving low-income students, eligibility requirements, grant conditions, and to obtain the service agreement, see studentloans.gov.
You may cancel all or a portion of your TEACH grant after funds have been credited to your student's Bursar account by notifying us in writing within 30 days after the date of your grant disbursement notice. After 30 days, you will work directly with the Department of Education.
Ohio College Opportunity Grant (OCOG) - A state grant program which provides need-based tuition assistance to Ohio students with financial. Students apply for the OCOG by completing the FAFSA by October 1 each year. For the 2018-2019 academic year, the maximum award amount for full-time enrollment was $1500 for students with an EFC of less than 2191. Award amounts are prorated based on enrollment.
BVR/Bureau of Vocational Rehabilitation-Bureau of Services for the Blind - Federal and state grant program for undergraduate students with disabilities. Eligibility for funding is determined by the Rehabilitation Service Commission in the student's state of residence. Contact the state office in your state capital in order to begin the agency's application process as early as possible.
Educational Loans
Miami University realizes that managing the cost of education is a challenge for many families. In addition to grants, scholarships, and federal work-study funds, several loan options are available. Loans may make it possible for you and/or your family to borrow now and defer repayment until after you leave the university. Families should monitor loan debt and find ways to reduce expenses, determine the total amount of education debt they are willing to accrue during a student's entire college enrollment, and borrow only what is needed. Please visit MiamiOH.edu/loans for more detailed information on loans.
Federal Direct Subsidized and Unsubsidized Student Loans - Most students who file the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) are eligible for a Federal Direct Student Loan. Students may receive a Direct Subsidized Loan, a Direct Unsubsidized Loan, or a combination of both for the same academic year.
The Direct Subsidized Loans are awarded based on a student's financial need. With a Direct Subsidized Loan, the federal government pays any interest that accrues on the loan during authorized periods of deferment (postponement of repayment).
The Direct Unsubsidized Loans are awarded based on the cost of education less any other financial aid received. The federal government charges interest on the loan from the time the loan is disbursed until the loan is paid in full.
The annual borrowing limits (as defined by federal needs analysis formulas) for both the Direct Subsidized and Unsubsidized Loans are $5,500 ($3,500 may be in a subsidized loan) for freshmen, $6,500 ($4,500 may be in a subsidized loan) for sophomores, and $7,500 ($5,500 may be in a subsidized loan) for the remaining years of undergraduate study. Independent students may also qualify for an additional unsubsidized loan of $4,000 or $5,000 depending on their undergraduate status. Aggregate loan limits exist for both undergraduate and graduate study. The interest rate on both loans is fixed at the time the loan disburses. Direct Loan interest rates are determined each July 1. For more information about current interest rates visit studentloans.gov.
Students are required to begin making payments on their Direct Loans six (6) months after they graduate, leave school, or drop below half-time (6 credit hours) enrollment.
Federal Direct PLUS Loans (for parents) - Federal Direct PLUS loans help parents pay their dependent student's educational expenses. Parents may borrow up to the cost of attendance minus any other financial aid the student receives. The federal government charges interest from the date of the first disbursement until the loan is paid in full. The interest rate on the loan is fixed at the time the loan disburses. New loan interest rates are adjusted once a year on July 1. For more information about current interest rates visit studentloans.gov. The parent is responsible for repayment of this loan. Parents have the option of beginning repayment either 60 days after the loan is fully disbursed, or six months after the student ceases to be enrolled on at least a half-time basis (6 credit hours). However, interest begins to accrue 60 days after full disbursement and will also accrue during loan deferment. A FAFSA must be submitted in order to apply for a PLUS loan. For information on applying, please visit MiamiOH.edu/loans.
Administered by the Office of Student Financial Assistance, scholarship programs are designed to recognize outstanding undergraduates demonstrating high scholastic aptitude and attainment. While all scholarships are based on academic merit, some scholarships also have financial need as a requirement.
Students cannot receive a combination of aid, including loans, grants, federal work-study, and scholarships, which exceeds their cost of attendance. If the total amount of financial aid exceeds the cost of attendance, the amount of aid will be reduced.
All accepted first-year students are automatically considered for all available university scholarships. No separate scholarship application is required. Students that file the FAFSA by the Priority I deadline of December 1 or the Priority II deadline of February 1 will also be considered for need-based scholarships. Scholarship award determinations will be based on official testing and high school transcript information received at the time of application. Regional Campus students who are first-time freshmen may be considered for merit awards if they apply for admission by February 1. A separate application is not required.
Current Miami students attending the Oxford or Regional Campus will be considered for the various donor and departmental scholarships available for the following year. To also be considered for need-based scholarships, returning students must complete the FAFSA by the February 1 deadline. We will automatically make award determinations by reviewing a student's cumulative grade point average (GPA) and the specific eligibility criteria required for each scholarship. Scholarships are awarded within the limits of available funds. No separate scholarship application is required. Returning students will receive scholarship award notifications prior to June 1.
Renewable scholarships are available for new domestic transfer students who have demonstrated academic merit and significant need. A student must have submitted a FAFSA and also have the scholarship GPA based on 12 or more credit hours from an accredited school. For Miami transfer scholarship requirements, please see MiamiOH.edu/scholarships, then click the "Transfer Student Scholarships" link. Students enrolled less than full-time, attending the regional campuses, or who have a previous Bachelor's degree are not eligible.
For additional scholarship information, see MiamiOH.edu/ scholarships.
Incoming freshmen are notified of their scholarship awards at or near the end of March; returning students will be notified prior to June 1. Awards are normally made for the academic year, starting with the fall semester.

Kangana Ranaut Supervises Manikarnika via Skype And Facetime
Kangana Ranaut supervises the post-production of Manikarnika via Skype and Facetime.
Kangana has been recently off late racing against time to make sure that Manikarnika releases smoothly on January 25th, 2019.
The actress who plays the pilot role of Rani Lakshmi Bai in the film, took over the helms and reigns of the direction of Manikarnika halfway to finish the last schedule of the film.
Says a source, "Kangana aims to finish it in time. Although she's quite satisfied with her team's work, she wants to give it her 100%".
खूब लड़ी मर्दानी वह तो झाँसी वाली रानी थी…
Witness a glimpse of the most fierce warrior, the Queen of Jhansi. #ManikarnikaTeaser out now: https://t.co/MFNA7fTplM#Manikarnika #KanganaRanaut @Jisshusengupta @anky1912 @DirKrish @shariqpatel @KamalJain_TheKJ @ZeeStudios_
— Team Kangana Ranaut (@KanganaFanClub) October 2, 2018
The "Queen" of Bollywood has been shooting in Bhopal for a week to finish her 20-day shooting schedule for Ashwiny Iyer Tiwary's family drama Panga that's based on Kabaddi.
Kangana has been shuttling and juggling back and forth between Mumbai and Bhopal simultaneously for post-production of Manikarnika and shoot of Panga as her presence is required for both the films. Now she has started using technology to save her time.
The source adds, "Kangana spends one and a half hour on skype every day after the shoot of Panga. She discusses the VFX, the background score, music and sound, which are of prime importance at this stage".
Our source says, "Kangana interacts with different groups involved in the process through Skype, FaceTime or video call". We've also heard that there will be 7 songs in the film including those that will be played in the background. "The tracks have been recorded, but they're now in the mixing process. Some of them are completely ready while others are in the process. Even the dubbing of different artists has started. For instance, the British soldiers will have a distinct accent while those shown in East India Company will have a different one. Kangana is looking into minutest details for this historical" adds the source.

Volkswagen is giving the world a preview of the third-generation Touareg ahead of the model's debut at the Beijing auto show at the end of March, hinting at close resemblance to the T-Prime GTE concept that the automaker presented in Beijing in 2016.
At the time, the T-Prime GTE was seen as a close preview of 2018 Touareg design themes and technology, and the sketch VW revealed over the weekend confirms this. The next-gen Touareg has already been seen completely uncamouflaged in several spy photos, so perhaps the sole departure from this official sketch will be the height of the roofline, which is a little taller on the actual vehicle.
Based on the MLB Evo platform shared with the likes of the Audi Q7 and Porsche Cayenne, the third-gen Touareg promises to take a substantial technological (and dimensional) leap over the outgoing model, growing in wheelbase by several inches and offering four-wheel steering in addition to an adjustable air suspension and a giant 15-inch infotainment screen. V6 and V8 engines will power the new Touareg, which is also expected be offered in a hybrid flavor with an electric-only range of about 30 miles.

In order to be approved for a cash loan, you need to be a legal adult. For most of the United States, legalized adulthood occurs at the age of eighteen. But cash loans are notorious for having astronomically high interest rates. If you are a young person seeking financial assistance, a cash loan may not be the best option for you.
The term "cash loan" can refer to an unsecured payday loan or any other unsecured loan that does not use a form of collateral. With the high interest rates that come with unsecured loans, paying back an unsecured loan could be quite difficult. Falling behind on your cash loan payments will lead to a cycle of debt and if you default, possibly a poor report on your credit report. Especially as a young person, you want to do things that will improve your credit report, not harm it.
What Alternatives are There for Getting Loans for Young Adults
If you own a car, a car title loan may be a better option for you. When you get a car title loan with LoanMart you will enjoy our competitive interest rates LoanMart1. We also have longer repayment terms than unsecured loans. We offer terms ranging from 12-48 months.

Hello everyone,
I am trying to solve this for a while now. If anyone can help i will be very much greatful.
I need to get data from multiple tables inside another table's column.
I tried LOOKUPVALUE() but it can take data only from one table. It somehow needs a loop which will dynamicaly choose a table and column to look at. (The column name is the same for all tables).
Go to Solution.
Hi @v-qiuyu-msft, @Greg_Deckler
Thank you for the answers!
The problem is that i have much more tables involved. But i managed to get what i need by appending all the one row tables into one big table, and then use LOOKUPVALUE to pull the desired column values based on matching Ids.
Thank you both for your contribution.
View solution in original post
Need more details on this: https://community.powerbi.com/t5/Community-Blog/How-to-Get-Your-Question-Answered-Quickly/ba-p/38490
Proud to be a Datanaut!
Thank you Smoupre,
I tried thisColumn = CONCATENATE() which returns a string (in my case a table and column name) - f.ex. 'Table[Number]' - but what i need is a value.
SUM('thisColumn') would do the work, but it returns an error "The function SUM cannot work with value of type String".
Is there any function or DAX thing to get the expression of a String? Or any other Idea?
Thank you for your help.
VALUE will turn a string into a numeric value if possible.
MergedData = CONCATENATE(CONCATENATE("'";CONCATENATE([TableName];"'"));"[Number]")
This is my formula.
'TableName' is a column from current table containg names of my desired tables. Let's say table names are Table1, Table2,...Table10.
Basically, I need a number from the columns Table1[Number] and Table2[Number] ... and Table10[Number] - (these tables have only 1 row)
My formula returns a string 'Table1'[Number], 'Table2'[Number] ... 'Table10'[Number]'
But the formula
Returns an error "Cannot convert value '''Table1'[Number] of type Text to type Number."
Can you understand? Or maybe i should create a pbi example file?
Thank you very much for your time.
Hi @dub,
From your description, each table has [Number] column which has one value, you want to concatenate those column values in one table, right?
In your scenario, assume Table2, Table3 and Table4 have Number column, you can try to create a calculated column in the table Table2 use DAX below:
ConcatenateCol = CONCATENATE(CONCATENATE('Table2'[Number],CONCATENATE(",",MAX('Table3'[Number]))),CONCATENATE(",",MAX('Table4'[Number])))
Please take a look at attached pbix file.
Best Regards,Qiuyun Yu

Tonight I read aloud a short story I wrote some years ago. It was two pages.
I loved watching the face of my audience: so intent. Afterward, she asked if she could read it over herself. There were several points she wanted to talk about– things that jumped out at her as symbolic of me. Connections she made about my personality that were illustrated in my characters. Questions she wanted to ask.
I was happy to indulge her, to be interviewed.
Watching someone else hold my work in their hands and study it was amazing.
Suddenly my short story felt elevated to literature.
I stopped writing creatively years ago. I barely blog these days. I didn't consider myself intelligent, creative or brave enough. I also didn't want to take on the vulnerability of being published, analyzed.
I had other reasons as well. The last time I wrote something creative and personal, in a "free" writing work shop, it was stolen and published without my permission. The betrayal caused me to shut down and stop writing.
But this experience made me feel validated. More confident. Safe.
This reader found my story inspiring. She was impressed with my creativity.
It made me feel smart, important. Powerful.
I want to share that story with others. Maybe even try and publish it.
And maybe let my pen run free once again.
