How AAAS and Science magazine really feel about sexual harassment cases in science
Life has a way of interfering with your plans. Or at least it does mine. Looking at where, a year ago, I expected to be now and where I actually am is like looking at two completely different stories. I had planned to continue with my running and weight training schedule, but I allowed other things to squeeze out my time. I thought I had a very clear idea of what I wanted my career to look like, but I have begun to wonder just how much I'm willing to commit to that path. I certainly had no idea that I would be moving to a different lab.
With the exception of the first item, it's really not as bad as it might sound, though, because these deviations either signify or have initiated consequential changes for the better. To start with, I'm far less timid than I was a year ago. I have insinuated myself into conversations and initiated introductions--instead of running away. I have tapped into my network of peers and colleagues and, with some help, have even expanded it. In many ways, this was triggered by questioning my career path and deciding to survey other options. I have rediscovered my voice--or perhaps more accurately the courage to speak my mind to someone other than my spouse (this change has not been universally appreciated). I was very recently reminded of the reason I started this career in the first place. I know what I love to do and what I'm good at. I am starting to rebuild my confidence, which has taken a rather brutal beating this past year. And I have found a surprising source of community in the bloggosphere and Twitterverse.
Even though it's clear that things rarely go according to plan exactly, it is still important to look ahead and think about where I want to go. What do I hope to accomplish in the coming year?
There are other things, more specific things that need to go on this list, but it's a start. Importantly these are things that, for the most part, I can acheive regardless of the monkeywrenches life tosses in the cogs. And as I'm learning, not all monkeywrench tosses end badly.

Product Description
This blow off valve, or dump valve is for the BMW 235 3.0 Petrol Turbo engine, as found in the F22 chassis model that has a single electronically controlled bypass valve. This product is recommended for both unmodified vehicles and any vehicle where the boost pressure has been increased by an ECU software upgrade, as a replacement to the OEM bypass valve. Unfortunately the standard valve fails when the plastic deteriorates with age normally resulting in a check engine light. Unfortunately the valve may still partially function, so you may not be aware that you are losing power due to this. This particular failure can also result in the valve falling apart upon removal from the turbo, and in extreme cases, bits of plastic entering the turbo, resulting in serious damage.
Our alternative is a fully engineered solution offering significantly improved reliability. Our valve is piston based, with no diaphragm to fail, and with a body of all aluminium construction. It's also fully serviceable and the spring strength can be changed to suit increased boost levels. Most importantly it still also retains the desirable OEM ECU control over valve actuation, with the inclusion of an electrical harness that plugs straight into the BMW wiring. It's literally plug and play.
Please Note: In line with our policy to constantly review ,revise and improve our product range, the product you receive may differ from the one advertised.

Weak Password Challenages
Weak Password Risk Factors
Let's assume you log onto many different websites on daily basis. Do you always create unique password or use weak password? Do your passwords always use different character types such as uppercase and lowercase letters, numbers and punctuation? Are they "strong" passwords?
If you can't answer "yes" to these questions, you've got yourself an Identity Management problem which makes you an easy target for hackers. We all tend to use easy to remember passwords that we rarely change. There is simply no way we can remember all our unique, strong passwords and the sooner you recognize this, the sooner we can embrace a more secure alternative.
25 "Worst Passwords" of 2011 revealed
Password, 123456, 12345678, qwerty , abc123, monkey, 1234567, letmein, trustno1, dragon, baseball , 111111, iloveyou, master, sunshine, ashley, bailey, passw0rd, shadow, 123123, 654321, superman, qazwsx, michael, football
Multiple weak passwords and log in challenges are causing security nightmares, costing valuable time and money, and putting users at risk. In addition to the above finding published by Forbes, if you think that your passwords and logins are safe and secure, think again.
Furthermore, there are many other factors that you need to consider. As a result, you need a Cloud based security solution with a holistic (all-inclusive, universal) approach to include secure access management, and to protect your identity on the web. Irrespective of which popular or unpopular web browser you may use, security credentials need to be protected by the vendors who are specialized, experienced, and focused on the security aspect and not by the products or vendors where "security" is one of the features.

Everything you Need to Know When Buying a Duvet
Togs: this refers to a duvet's warmth (insulation value) rather than weight or quality. Just as important is a duvet's breathability (the way the duvet filling traps air) – if it absorbs moisture well during the night, the more cool and comfortable you will feel whilst you sleep.

All papers, in English, should be submitted electronically to our online submission system.
Please prepare your manuscript, including tables, using a word processing program and save it as a .doc, .tex, .rtf or .ps file. The typesetters are unable to copy, edit, or typeset manuscripts or tables in pdf format.
Title Page
We advise that the title of the article be short, specific and informative. The first name, initial(s), and surname of each author should be followed by his or her department, institution, city with postcode, and country. The fax, telephone number and email address of the corresponding author should also be provided. Our policy is to list only one author for correspondence. Any changes of address may be given in footnotes. Any deletions or additions to the author list after acceptance of the paper must be submitted in writing, signed by all authors, to the appropriate editorial office.
The second page of the manuscript should contain the Abstract, which must not exceed 250 words. The Abstract should be comprehensible to readers before they have read the paper, and reference citations must be avoided at this stage.
Please indicate the level of the section headings in your article.
- First-level headings (e.g. Introduction, Conclusion) should be in bold, left aligned with the main words capitalized.
- Second-level headings should be in italics, left aligned, with the main words capitalized.
- Third-level headings should be indented from the left margin, in italics and sentence case.
Non-standard abbreviations should be defined at the first occurrence and introduced only where multiple use is made. There should be no abbreviations in headings.
Figures and Illustrations
For reproduction in the journal, authors will be required after acceptance to supply high-resolution .tif files (1200 d.p.i. for line drawings and 300 d.p.i. for colour and half-tone artwork) or high-quality printouts on glossy paper. We advise that you create your high-resolution images first as these can be easily converted into low-resolution images for online submission.
Figures will not be re-lettered or re-numbered by the publisher. The journal reserves the right to reduce the size of illustrative material. Any photomicrographs, electron micrographs or radiographs must be of high quality.
Wherever possible, photographs should fit within the print area or within a column width. Photomicrographs should provide details of staining technique and a scale bar.
When creating figures, please make sure any embedded text is large enough to read. Many figures contain miniscule characters such as numbers on a chart or graph. If these characters are not easily readable, they will most likely be illegible in the final version.
Color Figures
If there is a choice of colours on a schematic, please choose clearly distinct colours (e.g. not two shades of blue) and avoid black backgrounds if possible.
Any figures submitted to the journal in colour can be published in colour. Authors may choose to also publish their figures in colour in the print journal. Black and white figures will also be accepted, but figures that may be converted from colour to black and white should be well prepared with high contrast, and must have a resolution of at least 300 dots per inch at their final size. Figure captions must be suitably worded to apply to the article.
All tables submitted must be in editable format (e.g. Word, excel, ppt) as the typesetters are unable to typeset any tables in image format (e.g. pdf).
All tables should be on separate pages and accompanied by a title and footnotes where necessary. The tables should be numbered consecutively using Arabic numerals. Units in which results are expressed should be given in parentheses at the top of each column and not repeated in each line of the table. Authors are advised not to overcrowd the tables and limit the use of words. The format of tables should be consistent with what is normally used in international journals. Please note that it is the author's responsibility to ensure that the data given in tables are correct.
Maths Elements
For guidance on setting mathematics, please see our short guide.
Acknowledgements and details of non-financial support must be included at the end of the text before references and not in footnotes. Personal acknowledgements should precede those of institutions or agencies. Please note that acknowledgement of funding bodies and declarations regarding conflict of interest should be given in separate funding and conflict- of- interest sections respectively.
Full references should be provided in accordance with the style of the Journal of African Development. These should be listed in Alphabetical order. Journal titles and author initials should be properly abbreviated and punctuated. If an automatic referencing system has been used in the preparation of the paper, the references must not be left embedded in the final text file submitted. The citation of journals, books, multi-author books and articles published online should conform to the following examples:

The CONs - extra load on the car due to the gas cylinder in the boot. No pickup.
The PROs - .52 sen per liter. RM 7-10 for the full tank. Gives you 150 KM inthe city. 200-250 on the high way with 10kg tank capacity. The mileagealso depends on the pressure of the gas while pumping. Petronas is oklah.. costs about RM 1.5 -2G to install the kit. The price may varydepends on the size of the cylinder. Tractors malaysia is selling it. Ithink it is under petronas.
You don't need to change oil after every 5000 as it doesn't use petrol tomix up to run the engine. It uses gas, so even if you change the oil, itwill be as good as new. The engine will be quite and smooth.
Now here is the best part!!!!
If your car is 100 % NGV, you get 50 % off on road tax, if 50% petrol and50% NGV then its 25%...
So Malaysians..... the choice is OURS. We decide what's best for us!

full range speaker for HT
Both my stereo system and my HT system share the same front left and right speaker .
Recently have a intension to get a full range speaker (FRS), as i know a FRS is high sensitive . What is the max watt it can handle .? My AV receiver is 65 w an i am worried it will kill the speaker driver .anyone have the same experience to share?
Or should i use the AVR pre out to connect to my sun audio SV2a3 to power the FRS.
What reciever do you have? Does it have pre-outs? Do you have any other amps besides the SV 2a3?
Just because the reciever says it will put out 65w does not mean that it actually can, nor does it supply a constant 65w, there is always the volume knob.
What full ranges do you have? What efficiency are they, I'm guessing mid 90s if your using the SV 2a3. What surrounds do you have? What is their efficency? You can hook up your full ranges to any amp, as long as you have a volume knob that can be turned down, you will not blow your speakers.
Using a MArantz SR 4400 , it come with a pre out .
I am think of getting a carol flat 8 full range driver
I use a variety of FR drivers in my HT system. My receiver is rated at 100watts per channel (NAD), and I drive FE127Es for center at very high levels without any problem. The bass management is set @ 80HZ and a sub covers from there on down, relieving the FR from long excursions. If you hear distortion turn the volume down. Your system will tell you when it`s had to much. I feel that a HT system needs a sub more than a 2 channel music only system does.
Sage advice.
Dave, I`m an Amerycun and my English ain`t none so to good, could you explain what you mean by "sage advice".
Good/sound advice given by one with experience.
Thanks, that`s what I was hoping you meant. I`ve been into audio as a hobby since the early 70`s and never destroyed a driver by abuse. If your ears can`t tell you there is a problem, then your nose will when things heat up. Thanks for your clarification.
I've been contemplating FR drivers for a few years now. Probably get a complete set of fe167e's and build the recommended BR enclosure for the mains and the optional enclosure for the center and rear speakers. Will be using a Panasonic sa-xr50 to drive them.
2 Attachment(s)
The pair of 167s i have are awaiting me to go at them with the C37 & puzzlecoat (they already have phase plugs)

Birds of Conservation Concern 4 (BOCC4), commonly known as the UK Red List for birds was published in December 2015, updating the third review published in 2009. Standardised criteria have been used by experts from a range of leading bird NGOs to reassign 244 of the 247 bird species assessed, to either the Red, Amber or Green lists of conservation concern.
Overall, there has been an increase in red-listed species, many of which are found within woodland and upland habitats, with more species being red-listed than on any of the previous versions of the BoCC. Several species were also moved onto the green list, with an overall reduction in the number of species on the amber list. More details on the process can be found here.
We will use these new lists in place of those previously published to inform ecological valuation where necessary as part of the impact assessment process. Our clients can therefore be confident that our conclusions and recommendations continue to be based on the most up-to-date information available in line with best practice.

Complaints About Parking Across Driveways and Other Dropped Footway Crossings Etc.
The District Council's Civil Enforcement Officers can issue Penalty Charge Notices (PCN). Locations where this applies include where a vehicle is parked on the carriageway adjacent where a footway has been lowered to:
· assisting pedestrians crossing the carriageway
· assisting vehicles entering or leaving the carriageway across the footway (e.g. across entrances to residents' homes)
A Penalty Charge Notice can be issued if a vehicle is parked at a dropped footway but there are exceptions including ( see Procedure for full details [350kb] ) :
· The vehicle was parked wholly within a designated parking space
· The vehicle is parked outside a residential premises by or with the consent of the occupiers of the premises (this does not include shared driveways)
· Limited exceptions linked to the collection/delivery of goods, building works and allowing people to get into or out of a vehicle.
Unless there are good reasons not to 5 minutes observation time should always be given prior to the issue of a PCN.
If you what to report parking across a driveway (without occupiers consent) or other dropped crossing please call NFDC's Parking Team on 023 8028 5000 or email email@example.com .
Given local authorities now have these powers we do not normally provide lines across dropped crossings as they are visually intrusive and are an on going maintenance liability. In special circumstances, for example the dropped crossing is not easily seen by drivers, NFDC can provide access markings at the residents own expense. Please e mail firstname.lastname@example.com if you want more information.

I'm not sure who LL is talking about. I know few people raised in Brooklyn, and I am by no means fit to represent Queens- still I find myself singing the "Doin' It" lyrics pretty much every time I walk the dogs.
We are moved. Settled, but not "finished". A sea of boxes remain shoved in the room that will soon become our son's. You see, in Manhattan, we had about four pieces of furniture because… well, that's all that fit. Part of our stuff was in a storage facility in Harlem and the rest of our stuff was crammed to the gills in our four pieces of furniture. Now that our square footage has nearly doubled, we decided to end our storage contract and find room for it in our new apartment. Soooo, four pieces of furniture no longer sufficed. We bought a few new pieces (our moving budget blown, of course) and are now in the process of organizing what goes where.
The main problem, as I see it, is that I have about half the energy to complete these tasks as I did prior to getting pregnant. My pregnancy has been "easy" (if you forget about the hemorrhage-like bleeding, barfing at the bus stop, spina bifida scare, and amniocentesis), but I'd underestimated my ability to not overdo it with the move. George and members of his New York family saw to it that I didn't lift a thing, but just the simple tasks of bending over to unpack boxes and crouching to organize cabinets seem to unexpectedly exhaust me. There isn't a box in the world worth getting my fetus in a tizzy, so I've become a bit more relaxed and if it gets done today, great. If it gets done next month, so be it.
I am 23 weeks pregnant today. TWENTY THREE!
That means he has a slim, but fighting chance of survival if he was born today. Unbelievable. Certainly I want him to cook for as long as he needs, but knowing he's nearly developed makes me proud. The odd thing is, I graduated into the second trimester and started to calm down a bit about things going wrong, but in the last couple of weeks, my nerves have started to take over again. I have this overwhelming feeling that things are too good to be true, and I can't seem to shake it. I would imagine this is a normal side effect of pregnancy, but it's certainly one I wish I could ignore.
I can feel his gentle kicks on the outside of my stomach now, and George has felt him once. He sleeps mostly all day and wakes up when I get off work and seems to "play" until after dinner. Every movement makes me so happy. I talk to him all the time and feel like he gets excited along with me. It's the first time in my life I've been incapable of being alone, and I love it. Henry might be the only person on the planet I wouldn't mind sharing every minute of my life with. (That's gonna change when he's an energized, two year old, isn't it?)
The negative side effects have been few, but as of last week, I parted with my wedding rings. It was a sad, sad day. I love them. They would be loose in the mornings and almost impossible to take off after work. The swelling in my hands and feet is pretty intense at the end of each day, and I feared having to get those suckers surgically removed. So, I've placed Sparkly and Stedman in a safe spot and plan to meet back up with them after I've birthed them a baby. To boot, not having a ring on will really step up my playa status. Because as I'm sure you know, men are DYING to hit on pregnant chicks.
Last Friday, the wonderful people I work with threw me a surprise baby shower! I was caught completely off guard. I realized, as I was walking into the room that I was experiencing something I really never thought I'd be able to. All of these milestones have been amplified by the worry that I'd never reach them. Infertility is a sucky beast, but it sure makes the miracle of fertility, and all that goes with it, more special than I'd even imagined. So often I feel overwhelmed by the support and encouragement we've received through this entire process, and being celebrated by a group of people I've worked with for less than half a year, made an impact that I won't ever forget. The shower was a Baby Basics shower- meaning we got diapers and wipes and other essentials necessary to survive. I loved it all, and am so grateful to work with such caring, special people.
Tomorrow I have an ultrasound to measure my cervical length. Because of my previous Leep (cervix surgery), my cervix may not be strong enough to hold in a pregnancy. So, as an extra precaution, the doctor will take measurements every two weeks to determine my risk for going in to labor early. The upside? I get to see my boy! I have been so busy since our last ultrasound that I forgot to share pictures. Here he is at 21 weeks. The first one, a head shot. The second, a thumb's up telling us to leave him alone and that all was good in the hood. Amen, my sweet Henry. Amen.

WPBSA Chairman Jason Ferguson forms part of the board of World Snooker, a role that enables him to manage the WPBSA's investment in that company and to ensure the interests of the players and the sport are maintained. It also provides the opportunity for the WPBSA to work with governments, sports ministries and cities around the world which ultimately can lead to the growth of the World Snooker Tour.
How do they differ?
The WPBSA is snooker's world governing body, responsible for the governance and development of the sport globally. The organisation is not for profit, with revenue to be allocated for re-investment to drive the sport forward. It is managed in accordance with its constitution.
World Snooker Ltd is a commercial events company, it holds the exclusive right granted from the WPBSA to own and operate the World Snooker Tour. It has the freedom to drive profit from its activities which allows it enter into contracts with commercial partners, sell sponsorship and maximise the value of the sports television rights.
Matchroom Sport Ltd, a company owned by Barry Hearn owns 51% of World Snooker Ltd.
How does the WPBSA work with World Snooker?
The WPBSA is at the forefront of snooker's globalisation and so many new sports development opportunities come through it, including the introduction of new markets that World Snooker can then capitalise on with the generation of new events.
In its role as the sport's governing body, the WPBSA has overseen the creation of the Players Forum. Any issues raised by the players in respect of the World Snooker Tour should be levied through its Players Forum and its player representatives.
Referees on the World Snooker Tour are employed by World Snooker, but work under rules and guidelines laid down by the WPBSA, including the official rules.
The WPBSA retains responsibility for the World Snooker ranking list and continues to be responsible for coaching and development, the equality and diversity of the sport and all grassroots initiatives.
Why is this separation important?
The separation of Governance and Commercial activities is vital to manage the sport professionally. It allows the commercial activities to move freely and efficiently and allows the governing body to concentrate on its development initiatives without the concerns of running a tour of events. It also gives protection to sponsors and partners against any potential political issues which can appear in sports bodies from time to time.
The WPBSA and World Snooker Ltd are tied together through shareholding and contract and therefore work together in their prospective roles for the sport as a whole.

Mark Carbonaro believes in real-life magic. Sure, he can manipulate cards like other magicians. He has the black hat, fire tricks and coins at his disposal, too.
Mark Carbonaro believes in real-life magic.
Sure, he can manipulate cards like other magicians. He has the black hat, fire tricks and coins at his disposal, too. He can even conjure up a few mystical facial expressions for a photographer.
Carbonaro, 18, who is a first-year college student studying to be a teacher, spent time in magic school in August, studying with Las Vegas headliner Jeff McBride and his teacher Eugene Burger in Atlantic City, N.J.
That was magic in more ways than one.
Originally, Carbonaro, who also practices the martial arts, was planning to travel to Japan with his brother and study. He got into an argument with his brother, and they canceled the trip. "I had saved up this money, and what am I going to do?" said Carbonaro, who discovered the magic master class.
"That's real-life magic playing out because my heart was set on Japan and that's gone. I check out magic classes and find McBride's master class, and Boom! I'm there," he said.
He not only learned the tricks of the trade, but about everything from spirituality to marketing.
"They're already accomplished magicians. Not only is it a fabulous hobby, but it can be a feasible vocation," said Carbonaro, who hopes to be a professional magician someday. "The most important thing I gained was that you should never stop searching, never stop learning."
Carbonaro, who was born on Staten Island and moved to Tobyhanna with his parents when he was a year old, sought the spotlight early.
During a family trip to Disney World, his father began videotaping the hotel room. "I kept getting in front of the camera. I was 5. I was drawn to it, and I loved being the showman," he said.
His father dabbled in magic, so Carbonaro had a front-seat to see someone creating illusions. He also found a mentor in a family friend, Burt Ebel. Carbonaro, who was in sixth grade at the time, had to attend a vow renewal and was bored to death. Ebel starting showing Carbonaro card tricks.
"I was mesmerized," he said. "Then he threw water in my face, and I didn't know where it came from. It caught my attention."
His family supported Carbonaro's interest by buying supplies, attending lectures and seeing Jeff McBride in Atlantic City. Carbonaro, who is basically self-taught, practiced and practiced his skills.
His first show was a benefit for a fellow magician, Joe Raven, who had an accident while performing.
"Once I had approval from fans and friends, I knew this was it," said Carbonaro, who particularly enjoys the reaction from the audience. "That's what you feed on," he said.
Maybe that's why he is studying education. "You're no longer the teacher. You're the entertainer because kids want to be entertained," said Carbonaro, who was inspired by his seventh-grade teacher, Mike Loverdi.
"If I was a teacher, I'd still be doing magic. During the summers I'd use it and use the methods to control it," he said.
As a magician, he will do everything in his power to avoid what he calls "magic vomit," which is when a magician does trick after trick without any notion of connectivity.
"The tricks are not as important. I'd rather have three pieces of strong magic and strong storytelling," he said. "There has to be a reason behind your madness."
Carbonaro strives to integrate psychology and philosophy into his performance. He sees it as a way to offer balance in a world where, philosophically speaking, anything done here cannot be proven, he said.
One line of thought revolves around the idea that life eventually stops.
The magician, tearing a playing card in two, knows this. So does his audience. When the magician puts the card back to its original state, the audience experiences a release, Carbonaro said. The card is restored, and so is life, in a sense.
"People want answers, but you will not get answers because nobody knows," he said.
That's the secret to good magic, which is not trick after trick but a connection.
A good magician, in Carbonaro's eyes, is one with some life experience. "It's the delivery, too, so you can make the audience cry and laugh," said Carbonaro, who because of this interest in narrative is trying his hand at script writing, too.
That is why he isn't particularly interested in creating his own tricks. "I'll use what works and be creative with the script because that is what I love," he said. "Once the cards come out, it's like a drug."
To make this all happen, Carbonaro must practice and practice. "It's not something you're born with. It's not innate. It's a skill," he said. "You practice everywhere. Even while standing in line at the supermarket."

As a drag racer, Joseph Jenkins lives life fast and dangerously until he almost loses it all in a car crash. He is left paraplegic and isn't given much hope for walking again by his doctors. Joseph has identified himself with racing his whole life and now he feels lost without it. While moping in the hospital, he meets a true friend, Elijah Salisbury, who gives him a new light on life and helps him to truly start living. It is in what he chooses to do with the small moments that matters as he lets God do the rest.
After Joseph leaves the hospital to return home, Paul Sharpe (John Schneider), an old friend of his father's, comes back into his life and assists him in rebuilding his dream. He helps Joseph learn to drive race cars all over again and gives him back the passion he thought he had to let go of.
The love and friendships that are developed in this movie are touching and truly bring the audience to care for the characters. At first Joseph is angry and unmovable, but his relationship with Elijah softens his heart while Paul encourages him to race again with that heart. The passion Joseph has for racing shows how God steps in when it seems something is impossible. If it is God's Will, it will still happen, just not always in the way one expects.
Adrenaline is a great family movie with aspects of love, faith and friendship intertwined throughout it. It will make one appreciate what blessings God has given them and the miracles that He creates through the passions of the heart. What blessings and passions has God blessed you with and where have they taken you in your life?

Value Investment
The way you select investments ultimately determines how successfully you will manage your portfolio and create future profits. The concept of value investing appeals to many people, especially the more conservative, because it bases decisions on analysis of the basic financial strength of a company, combined with the search for bargain prices of shares. This is the equivalent of buying a car by comparing ratings and performance, and then looking for an attractive discount.
The alternative, based on predicting the future and then trying to find companies most likely to grow into the assumed scenario, might succeed but it is much less scientific than applying the principles of value investing. The technique of trying to anticipate the future is flawed in the sense that such assumptions are rarely accurate. It may also ignore or overlook some of the basic facts about a company's financial strength, competitive position, product or service trends, and economic forces that are going to affect future value.
Those who try to pick investments based on assumptions about the future may actually outnumber value investors, whose emphasis is on analysis of financial fact rather than an attempt to predict future valuation and stock pricing. Value investing does not require you to predict the future or to be concerned with a variety of unknown influences on future prices. The decision to buy a particular company's stock is based on a study of current value, a history of growth, and application of a few sound fundamental principles (see Chapter ). Returning to the analogy of the car buyer, a value investor goes to the dealership armed with comparative price and performance data, model comparisons and prices, and a very solid idea of the model and price desired. The decision is made ahead of time that if the price is available, they will buy; if that price is not available, they will wait.
Key PointSeeking investments conforming to assumptions about the future may ignore the basic facts about a company's strength or growth potential.
The more impulsive car buyer goes to the dealership with little or no information other than what they might have heard about the brand. They end up buying for reasons that make no sense to the value investor. For example, they might buy a red car because it looks so nice . . . without considering the ratings, price, or performance issues.
For stock investors, the same principles apply. Value investors focus on individual companies, review the history of growth, read the annual reports, and decide in advance what is a fair price per share of the stock. It is simple and logical, but it requires more work. Once the true value of a company has been determined, the value investor will look for a buying opportunity. This means they will buy stock in the targeted company only if they can execute an order below the fair value price.
Do bargains arise in the market? Some theories claim that the current price of a share of stock is either efficient or random. (See Chapter .) An efficient price is one that has already factored in all known information about the company, meaning the price is always fair and accurate. A random price is one that changes without any prediction and may move up or down for reasons that cannot be known in advance.
Both of these theories are simply wrong. The market is anything but efficient. In fact, the inefficiencies of the market create may bargains. The 'market' as one entity over reacts to all news, both good and bad, meaning prices tend to move too high on good news and fall too low on bad news. These jarring price changes tend to self-correct within a few trading sessions; but once they have fallen, bargains are created in a window of opportunity.
Key PointIf the market were either efficient or random, it would be a 50â50 proposition to ever buy stocks. Under those theories, the current price of stock is always 'right' or 'arbitrary.'
Few people accept the idea that the pricing of stocks is random. Many reject the principles followed by value investors, noting that financial information is always out of date by the time it is published. However, current news about products, earnings, and market perceptions all affect the value of stock very specifically. Rather than believing in the random approach to value, it makes more sense to recognize that there are many things affecting price, some canceling one another out and others confirming the current trend.
Always remember the distinction between a technical trend (price movement) and a fundamental trend (changes in profitability, working capital, or financial strength). These are not the same, although they can be used together in analysis of companies and their stocks. However, even a consistent trend does not mean that short-term markets are efficient by any means. In the long term, a value investment is likely to be efficient in the sense that properly selected companies will experience growth. In the short term, however, the market is extremely inefficient and chaotic.
The theories concerning the efficiency of the market or its random nature are comforting to those looking at the market academically. But for people investing real money in shares of stock, these theories are either deceptively comforting (efficient at all times) or depressingly fatalistic (hopelessly random). Neither theory is realistic. The good news is that by applying the concepts of value investing, you can find value and a bargain price. It demands research and patience, but it is one way to build a profitable long-term portfolio. Two precepts every value investor has to be able to accept are:
Key PointShort-term market trends are extremely random and chaotic. However, long-term trends rely on the fundamentals.
- Inactivity in a stock's price is not a negative attribute.
- The market rewards patience.
It could take months, and in some cases years, for a stock's value to prove out the theory behind value investing. It is tempting to pay attention to the daily up-and-down changes in a stock's value, but that is not the way to preserve capital, avoid fast losses, or time decisions well. Value investors are patient and are willing to put in the time to research and analyze a company before buying shares.

Bad, bad English!
Call me old fashioned but the chopped-off, alien language that passes off for English nowadays really puts me off. I can tolerate a little abbreviations here and there, but to completely hack words in meaningless stubs out of sheer laziness is deeply painful. I am probably going to be sniggered at for this post for being a fuddy-duddy (Hah!) but this is my blog, and well, I am going to let it flow. Here are some of the enervating words we come across everyday but they make my head spin with grief - because it's too much to see the language I have spent so much time and effort perfecting, being massacred.
List of the English language's most gruesome aberrations:
LOL: Unfortunately, this very common and very irritating term reminds me of AIDS, SARS and other deadly diseases. It sounds like someone is dying with a very painful, incurable and mentally debilitating disease, which is partly true, because people who use it think it makes more sense than a simple Haha!
OMG: Oh My God is again a very common exclamation, but only if they would say it that way! All we get to hear is oh-em-jee which is like the sound of a chalk screeching on a blackboard to me.
Ma: Not a new term because all during the seventies, Maaaaa was a common refrain in Hindi movies. But, horror of horrors, this has actually come to mean 'my'. And I simply fail to understand the logic behind this. There's no extra effort required in writing 'my' in place of 'ma'. It in no way goes with the English accents we have in India. I would understand a rapper saying this, but a student who hails from UP/Kerala/Calcutta? It simply makes no sense and it sounds ridiculous.
dat: Aaaaargh!!! This 'totally' makes my blood boil! I mean, it's sooooo easy to write 'tht' so why make it sound like a programming language? Same number of words too!
Kewl: Clueless about this one. It's far easier to write 'cool' or 'kool' and it's also aesthetically appealing. Kewl sounds like a cough and cold syrup.
Okies, Babes, Bye-Byes: Sounds like plural diarrhea. Where one would have thought people (ppl?) would have been concerned about making things shorter, they've started adding an extra 's' which not only doesnt look cool, it makes them look like they flunked in English in Grade 3 and joined a vernacular school (which I would totally support).
Um: It seriously took me a while to figure out that this is actually 'am'. Enough said.
The list is endless but I guess I've made my point clear. As we can see from the examples above, it is not really about convenience. Most aberrations have the same or even more number of letters where a perfectly simple shortening is possible such as 'abt', 'tht', 'whn' etc. But I guess this is some kind of rebellion where words are being intentionally twisted to stand apart from the (sane) crowd.
It's not even that people are sending SMSes from mobiles that have just 9 buttons. Almost everyone has a Qwerty keypad or a touchscreen. And even if not that, there's always predictive text!
But then, I guess that the fuddy-duddy inside me talking.

text: Hi all, I want to hear what you all think. I bought a $329.99 Remington 870 wood stock,Express 12 guage, with a 28' barrel, and just cant bear to leave it as my truck gun with that size barrel. I thought about buying another shotgun with smaller barrel, but with all my factoring in I think i'll settle for a $100 new 18.5 barrel. The way i look at it is, I was looking at the New England Pardner for $169, $199 Mossberg's Maverick and not to forget $30 CA fee, and about $20-$25 for tax. So what do you think just buy a 18.5' barrel or buy whole new shorter barrel shotgun?

One frequent request from bloggers using blogspot (www.blogger.com) is to get rid of the year and month in a post permalink and just have relevant keywords in the post URL. This is not possible with blogspot blogs but is possible with self-hosted Wordpress blogs. (Update: Blogger updated post editor now gives in the options a way to customize permalinks)
Affiliate marketeers who use blogspot blogs as landing page for their affiliate products run a serious risk of having their blogs deleted. For such purpose, a self-hosted Wordpress blog is preferable.
One more reason why a self-hosted blog is preferable to blogspot blog is direct access to the server possible with self-hosted blog but impossible with blogspot blogs. There are various things you can do such as creating pop-ups or pop-unders which is only possible by hosting the blog yourself and not let Blogger host it for you.
However, one big disadvantage of self-hosted blog is the need to find reliable web host provider plus worries over security issues and other issues such as sufficient bandwidth, cost, uptime, etc.
Having a web host review site such as Top 100 Web Hosting will help with selection of a suitable webhost for your self-hosted blog as they have used various criteria to rank web host providers using criteria such as availability of unlimited web hosting, reputation, features, users rating, green environmental issues, reliability, speed,
you can read up, for example, Web Hosting Review HostGator before you make up your mind about which web host to use.
If cost is an important issue, there are tips on How to save Money on Web Hosting.
To make your money go further, you can also find Web Hosting Coupons & Promotion Codes for further discounts and get exclusive deals.
Top 100 Web Hosting help you save by highlighting exclusive deals, providing coupons and promotional codes to copy-paste to get discounts when ordering and secret links which are only available in their website.

The solution is to edit the template's date font to the same color as your background; that way the date doesn't show up. Simple.ReplyDelete
Jimbo, you are recommending a very dangerous tactic. Making text same color as background is black hat SEO and a sure way to get your website blacklisted by search engines. There is a simpler way. Just use the Blogger LAYOUT > Configure postReplyDelete
and untick the date option and the date will not show.

We all know the "Herzog voice," whether it's narrating the imminent death of a small penguin, answering yet another question about his relationship with Klaus Kinski, or reading children's books aloud. A Tumblr genius has brought this trope to its logical conclusion with Werner Herzog Inspirationals, a blog of stock images transposed with "inspirational" Herzog quotes. Frame them on the wall, stick them on your desktop, just don't try to tell me you're not reading them with a lilting German accent.

Oh, yes. But in 2015, Montgomery sued Risen, and that's when he dumped his "evidence" on the FBI.
The newly revealed text was written in March 2017; Montgomery and Klayman sued the FBI, etc., in June 2017.
In March 2017, however, Corsi was touting Mongomery's data, and of course Zullo, Gallups, Rondeau, etc., breathlessly hashed and rehashed everything. (And, ob., Klayman used this "evidence" to justify yet another filing in his suit against the NSA, which was still barely breathing back then). So the March text may have in response to the slight spike in interest in Montgomery.

Writing A Problem Solution Essay: 5 Mistakes To Avoid
There are so many different parts to writing any kind of essay, but especially one about problems and solutions, that it's hard to organize them all. You should find out ahead of time what mistakes you need to avoid so that you don't fall into a trap you could have seen coming. Keep reading if you want to know things that you shouldn't do, things that will make your life easier if they don't happen.
Choosing a topic is one of those things that students tend to dislike about essay writing. It's hard to find one that inspires you but also follows the guidelines your professor has set out for this assignment. But doing some internet research should find you plenty of ideas, and once you do have a great topic to write about, you can start using the tips below to avoid the common mistakes of paper writing about problems and solutions.
Five mistakes to avoid in problem solution essay writing
- Formatting: it might not seem that important if you don't follow the rules of 1" margins or double spacing, but it counts for more than you know. There are marks given for following the format guidelines, because that's how life is—whatever job you get at the end of your education will have strict rules about how paperwork is to be created and formatted, so you might as well start learning that now.
- Spelling and grammar: it probably goes without saying, but spellcheck your work before handing it in. Even better—have a friend who loves to read take a look at your homework and read it for spelling mistakes, because the computer won't catch everything.
- Not having a clearly separated introduction and conclusion—it's necessary to have these for the structure of your arguments in the essay. The reader won't be sure what they're reading without being introduced to the problem at hand, just as they won't be able to take action or feel a sense of finality without a conclusion.
- Using too much information: this is a problem most students won't have, but do make sure you're only a few using strong citations and sources, not too many weaker ones.
- Inappropriate language: this doesn't just include clichés but also technical jargon, too strong or emotional words, or blind references without a source citation.

Research Grants
The MRIWA Board has adopted the Research Priority Plan (RPP) to guide the Board's decisions on research grant Applications. The RPP is a required reference under Division 4 of the Minerals Research Institute of Western Australia Act 2013.
The RPP identifies key challenges and opportunities in the WA minerals industry and provides the remit within which the Board will consider Applications for research grants. (For more detail please refer the next section.)
An application form for a MRIWA research grant can be found in this section, and we offer the following background and guidelines for completing and submitting an application.
Our funding application form requires:
- An executive summary of 1 page or less;
- A clearly rationalised budget for the proposed project;
- A comprehensive description of the project with well thought-out milestones; and
- Indications of industry support in both cash and in-kind contributions.
Literature references and research backgrounds of the applicants and other participants must also be supplied.
An application can take a minimum of 2-3 months to process (refer Flowchart for a MRIWA Application) depending on the timing of the submission and the completeness of the Application.
For an Application to MRIWA to be successful the applicant(s) must show that the work proposed will directly benefit the Western Australian economy, is directed to the mineral deposits in WA and is within the remit of the Research Priority Plan. Potential and committed industry sponsors of a project should be named in the application, and letters of commitment of this support should be included.
All sponsorship funds must be paid directly to MRIWA who will administer them. Please refer to the MRIWA Policy Statements before completing an application for funding.
Applications can be submitted at any time during the year and are assessed on an 'as received' basis. A well prepared Application which includes all required information, including written indication of potential sponsor support, usually receives the fastest approval.
Projects in which MRIWA invests typically have a duration of between 6 months and 3 years.
The applicants, the grantee research organisation, sponsoring companies and MRIWA sign a contractual agreement for each project, which specifies what is required of each party for successful completion of the project.
Researchers must provide progress reports to support claims or progress payments. This is usually on a quarterly basis; a different period may be agreed in particular circumstances. A final report must be submitted, and after release by the sponsor(s) is published by MRIWA.
Should you wish to obtain the application in word .doc format, please contact the MRIWA office.

If you're like me, you barely have an extra minute to spare when it comes time to do some research or just reading for enjoyment. Some days are so crazy around here that I barely have time to change out of my p.j.'s! Is that a bad thing? Really?
On the journey to becoming more self-reliant and prepared, information is vital, but reading and research take time. Here are five ways to maximize the time that you do have and zero in on specific areas of information, rather than floundering around via Google or slogging through a book that may or may not have the information you're hoping to find.
- RSS feeds — I talked about how useful RSS feeds can be here. They're a lot like speed reading through your favorite blog headlines, picking out the ones that sound most interesting, and reading just those. I subscribe to SurvivalCache, SHTFplan, and Survival Common Sense.
- Yahoo groups — These groups are helpful sources of information, and you can be as active as you like. You can also choose to receive group posts by email, by going directly to the group's website, or by subscribing to the group's daily digest, a lengthy email containing all the group's post on a particular day. Some groups you might find interesting are Preserving-Food and CountryLifeandHomesteading.
- Phone apps — Survival information might be as close as your iPhone or other smart phone! Did you know you can access WebMD, first aid and survival manuals, and even an app that allows you to listen in on emergency frequencies? Read this post for more information.
- e-book — Yes, I'm still in love with my Kindle, but any e-book will do. The reason they are great time-savers is because they can hold hundreds of books and can be taken anywhere. It's rare for me to walk out the door without my Kindle. Why? Because I never know when I'll have a few extra minutes to get caught up on my favorite blogs or read a few pages of a good survival manual! Or maybe one of the Percy Jackson books.
- Forums — These are especially valuable because they allow you to zero in on specific categories of information, post your own questions, and then receive the answers by email! Some forums you might want to check out are Today's Survival Show forum and Survivalist Boards.
- That SurvivalMom binder! I hope you've been making hard copies of the great resources online. If you have, you probably have reams of articles you want to read, "someday"! Well, keep that binder in your vehicle and take advantage of spare minutes waiting at the dentist's office, hair salon, or at the coffee shop. This DIY resource guide is personalized to your own interests and needs, making it even more valuable.
Where do you go when you want to get survival information, fast?

A '90s light novel joins the fray
Anime Expo started on Thursday, and J-Novel unleashed a new arsenal of titles on their Website. Coincidentally, one of them answered my prayers as the original Sorcerous Stabber Orphen light novel launches in English. Honestly, I'm not too familiar with it, but the art featured in the anime and PS2 game gave me a good vibe.
Since it revolves around a magic school dropout trying to save his friend who accidentally became a dragon, it sounds right up my alley. That, and it looks like it's another fun fantasy story from the '90s.
As for the other stuff, Amagi Brilliant Park enters the scene, which is great for those who enjoy Shouji Gouto's (Full Metal Panic!'s Author) works. Since it received an anime by Kyoto Animation in the past, it could act as an excuse to go through the events that occur after the adaptation.
Speaking of things that received anime adaptations, Kokoro Connect joins the roster. I may have missed out on the anime, but I remember Former Japanator Editor-in-Chief Brad Rice enjoying the series. I guess it did some great stuff with the way how the cast bonded after going through swapping bodies.
For those looking for a different category of magic, Gear Drive focuses on a girl who acquires the power to control gears. Part of it had to with her failing to learn the ways of sorcery through studying. From the looks of it, this angle could lead to some clever moments.
Next up is Seirei Gensouki: Spirit Chronicles, which focuses on a kid going to a fancy school in a fantasy world. On top of that, he's the reincarnation of a college student. Seeing that he got into the academy through solving a mystery, it may feature some elements to keep people invested.
This following one crosses into the realm of prostitution as JK Haru is a Sex Worker in Another World puts the lead in this job. Since it features dark humor, it could be a commentary on this field of work. With her best friend being the one who gets the special powers, it sounds like the main heroine is being depicted as one who has to adapt to a harsh setting.
If monsters are your thing, Marchen de Werwolf: The Annals of Veight deals with the idea of coexistence since a lycanthrope is doing his best to bring peace between humans and demons.
This final piece is a compilation of stories called Last and First Idol. One is a sci-fi idol tale, the second deals with discovering the truth behind the universe through gacha, and the third one involves space voice actors.
As always, J-Novel lets people check out the first chapter for free, with the service being $4.50 a month. Based on their library so far, they seem to have a solid amount of stuff.
Last but not least, they're planning to give In Another World With My Smartphone a physical release. If it does well, I hope it can lead to more of their other titles receiving this treatment. Also, I love how this was revealed during the week that the anime adaptation came out on home video in North America.

At Datapolitan, we bring imagination and experience to the unique challenges of working with data. From problem scoping, to data cleaning, to analysis and visualization, we model a practice of open engagement and sharing in advance techniques. We're pioneering techniques of design-thinking and solution co-creation for partners of all skill levels and experience to empower decision makers with actionable insights.
Datapolitan provides a range of services to clients in three key areas, technical training, project work, and strategy consulting. In each of these three areas, Datapolitan is a leader in developing new techniques to engage the workforce of today and tomorrow with innovative approaches. We're one of the few organizations teaching critical thinking and data literacy with open data to civil servants, helping build a workforce able to comprehend and use the vast streams of data already starting to flow into government agencies. With our project work, we're introducing open-source technologies to government, helping agencies conserve valuable financial resources and leverage broad communities of committed developers. In our strategy consulting, we're helping agencies develop the critical understanding of how data can be leverage to meet their operational needs, developing awareness of critical issues, and facilitating a broad understanding of the value data holds for leading organizations to success.
Data analytics is a team sport that is best done in the company of people who offer a range of talents, training, perspectives, and experience. Using a design thinking approach, we collaboratively engage with our clients to develop creative strategies to important problems, defining clear opportunties for success through critical awareness of the various issues and concerns.
Working with the City of New York Department of Parks and Recreation, Datapolitan developed and conducted a training in the fundamentals of data analytics and the process of data-informed decision-making for 18 employees. This was based on Datapolitan's highly successful data analytics training program with City of New York employees and intended to help NYC Parks employees better leverage data and technology for operational success. The class materials were customized to include datasets from NYC Parks and software readily available to NYC Parks employees. The course outline and content was based on interviews with NYC Parks employees to ensure the training was relevant to the day-to-day work of NYC Parks analysts.
In partnership with TigerSwan, Datapolitan is working to bring greater awareness of how data can be used to drive decision-making in the City of Lancaster, CA in order to improve the quality of life for the 160,000+ residents living in this city north of Los Angeles. This includes data gathering, analysis, mockups, and training to enhance the capacity of city employees to collect, interpret, and communicate insights to those who need it.
To better enable the NYU Tandon Online staff in this task, Datapolitan developed and led a series of sessions to develop a deeper understanding of the challenges and opportunities in creating a high-quality learning experience for content creators and learners. Taking as fundamental that online learning is both a platform for learners and content creators to come together, as well as a process for the creation and dissemination of content, these sessions looked at both the technical and the social aspects of the work NYU Tandon Online staff perform as a means to achieving success. Taking as a given that quality is in the eye of the beholder, these sessions started by understanding what's important to users. Leveraging proven techniques in design thinking and user-centered design, these sessions creatively engaged all participants with the ultimate goal of developing key insights into what users value and connecting them to concrete actionable outcomes to measure and improve value to these users.
Through a collaboration with the New York City Department of Citywide Administrative Services, we have created a very popular series of classes covering a range of topics in data analytics, statistical analysis, information visualization, and mapping. Consistent with our philosophy of openness, you can find the course outlines for the four (4) full day courses in data analytics and one (1) half-day course in Open Data. Read the blogpost and see the course outlines. Additionally, we've created a series of classes in spatial analysis with open-source tools. The class outlines and lecture materials for the introductory course and intermediate course are available online.
Datapolitan is working with the Johns Hopkins University Center for Government Excellence to help bring advanced techniques of data analysis, machine learning, and predictive analytics to mid-sized cities as part of the What Works Cities Initiative of Bloomberg Philanthropies. Working with both the talented GovEx staff and the many excellent partner cities across the country, Datapolitan is also helping develop training programs to make the great data work reproducible and sustainable.

NEW YORK (MarketWatch) -- Liberty Media Corp. on Wednesday posted a wider fourth-quarter loss, even as revenue jumped at its QVC business.
The Englewood, Co.-based media conglomerate posted a loss of $86 million, or 3 cents a share, compared with a loss of $2 million, or nil a share, in the year-ago period.
Liberty's L, +0.74% revenue in the quarter rose to $2.45 billion, from $2.17 billion a year earlier. Analysts polled by Thomson First Call were expecting revenue of $2.32 billion.
Earlier this month, Greg Maffei, former chief financial officer at Oracle Corp., assumed the chief executive role at Liberty.
The company, which is controlled by media mogul John Malone, said home shopping channel QVC's revenue grew 14% for both the fourth quarter and full year. Operating cash flow for the unit also grew 14%.
In the U.S., QVC's fourth-quarter revenue growth was driven by increased sales of home-related items.
Starz Entertainment Group, the parent of the various Starz and Encore premium movie networks, saw revenue slip to $248 million from $254 million.
Liberty noted that fourth-quarter average subscriptions were up 7% and 8% at Starz and Encore, respectively.
For most of the full year 2005, Starz and Encore subscriptions "remained relatively flat," Liberty said, due to a variety of factors, including a drop-off in digital cable subscriber growth rates; a move by some cable operators to promote other services at the expense of premium services like Starz and Encore; and hurricane damage in the Gulf Coast region during the third quarter.
During a conference call with analysts, Maffei commented on the company's stake in Time Warner Inc.
Liberty made a request last month to convert its nonvoting shares of Time Warner TWX, +0.00% to voting shares ahead of the schedule imposed by the Federal Trade Commission several years ago.
When Liberty was a subsidiary of the old cable giant TCI, in 1997, the FTC had prohibited Liberty from converting its stake, about 4% of Time Warner, into voting stock until February 2007.
Maffei said Liberty is "in continued dialogue" with Time Warner about ways it might swap its stake for assets, especially if it can do so in a tax-efficient manner.
He also discussed whether Liberty would be interested in trading its nearly 19% stake in News Corp. NWS, -0.34% for certain properties. News Corp. Chairman Rupert Murdoch has expressed concern about Liberty's accumulation of more stock, even calling for the implementation of a "poison pill" shareholder rights plan.
For now, though, said Maffei: "We are very impressed with the things that News has done, repositioning itself in the Internet space, driving and doing well with its businesses, and ... we think it is undervalued and therefore an asset that we feel very comfortable holding."
During the quarter, Liberty announced the creation of two tracking stocks. Liberty Interactive will follow the performance of the company's interactive assets, including stakes in Barry Diller's InterActive Corp. IACI and the Expedia EXPE, -0.13% online travel service, while Liberty Capital will track all assets and businesses not related to Liberty Interactive.
The tracking stocks are slated to debut in May.
In January, Liberty unveiled Vongo, a subscription Internet downloading service that gives users access to movies, music concerts and other content for $9.99 a month.
Liberty shares rose 1 cent to close at $8.25.

If it's painful watching another small business struggle as the economy rebounds. It's torture if it's yours. Why won't your customers buy from you when they are increasing their spending with others? When will they realize that imitating your value, products or services "in-house" is penny wise and pound foolish? The economy may be recovering but not in the same way. Most of the buyers I've interviewed for my clients are buying again but with new criteria. Instead of reverting to their old ways they are pursuing total cost of any solution and if they believe they can do it themselves, they will. So instead of fighting against the tide, why not accommodate your buyers and get them to pay you for doing so? Here are three ways:
So here are your three ways to help your customers to spend money with you:
While, it will always be tough to run or watch a business lagging behind in profitable growth, now you have one more tool to offer to a prospect who respects your value. So when are you going to start DIY, DIWM or DIFM in your business?

Deprise Brescia
California Mixed Media Artist
Blue Mermaid
The inspiration for this work comes from the tragic state our oceans face. Our mermaid who lives in the oceans and seas is literally blue or sad because of what has happened to her home.
She stays balanced in the feathered peacock yoga pose under the sea, poised, balanced, calm and centered waiting for humanity to awaken. Waiting for the mass of consciousness to realize the worth and respect the value of the oceans, the seas and all the waters of the world that are so precious to life on this planet.
Blue Mermaid is a reminder to be conscious of everything you put into the sea for you and for me.
The luster and finish is completely unique due to the encaustic finish. The bees wax and Damar resin are both delicate and durable. With care to keep away from extreme heat this encaustic work can last hundreds of years or longer.
Some of the oldest encaustic painting (thousands of years old) are from the Fayum mummy portraits and hang in the Metropolitan Museum in NYC.
Do not leave encaustic art in hot cars on summer days where temperatures can exceed 150 degrees during transport or in direct sunlight. Think of your encaustic work like a child, a small pet or a decorative candle. Treat it with respect and care and it will last.
I paint with the encaustic medium at a temperature between 180-200 degrees. I use a heat gun with temperatures of over 800 degrees to burn every layer into the work.
Think of the encaustic finish as a heavy duty candle with an element of resin for strength and durability. The finish is uniquely exquisite.

Slayin MOD APK for Android – It's time to save the world
Grab your sword and ready your spell. Slayin's fantasy action heats up real fast! After a long time holding the top 1 on the iOS game charts in the world, FDG Entertainment GmbH & Co.KG has officially released Slayin for the Android platform. This is the first RPG action game with Endless style in the world. Simple from concept, play to graphics and sound, Slayin is sure to be a new food for action lovers.
Choose your heroes
Thankfully, the game gives you six terrific hero choices—and they play quite differently. Be a sword-wielding knight (a strong fighter), mighty wizard (who can transform into a tornado), or the lucky knave (who makes foes drop more gold). There's even a tamer who jumps on monsters' backs, then directs their attack. With an upgrade, the wizard adds a fireball toss to her whirling offensive. Slayin's cool characters aren't the only thing that'll keep you coming back. Upgrading your character midbattle can impact the outcome, so have fun experimenting to see the effect of better armor versus fancier weapons versus a health boost. And have you seen those retro graphics? Both the art style and the chip-tune soundtrack are an irresistible tribute to the coin-op classics of yesteryear.
Classic designed
The first time you see the graphics of Slayin, I bet you will mistakenly think this is a 1990s video game modified to be compatible with the iOS and Android platforms. Indeed, Slayin is designed in classic style, from graphics to sound in the game. Players can choose from 6 characters (Knight, Wizard, and Knave), to experience adventures in order to destroy all the monsters that appear in the game. Characters will truly exhibit different abilities when experiencing various battles and gain experience as well as changing equipment from players.
The plot is clear
Although the game is a quite modest size less than 20Mb but Slayin is also a game with clear content. Can understand, we have just stepped into a strange world where people and strange creatures live together.Of course, humans are hardly able to live in harmony with the monsters, they have started attacking people under the direction of a giant fire dragon.Can not stand looking at the humanity destroyed, you will be brave knight dare to confront them from this moment. The battles in Slayin are divided into each level with the continuous appearance of the monsters from the sides. Your main task is to destroy a certain number of monsters to summon the boss in the game while still preserving your life. Creating monsters as well as bosses is not very special and there are many impressive points, but they are enough to bring players challenges when there is only one weakness that you need to attack. Gold is the most important resource for you to improve your character's fighting power. Gold is not only obtained when you destroy the monster, with successive chain killers will have other valuable rewards appear.In addition, these coins have the ability to recover a certain amount of life.
Easy to control
The control mechanism in Slayin is not complicated and only through the simple button displayed on the screen. You can control the direction of movement in two directions with a single operation, depending on each character class that will have different actions. Everything is very simple, special skills will automatically activate but depend on the weapon you use. In it, there are also confrontations with dragons that can spit fire, which defeating them to gain rewards is not easy at all. Slimes, skulls, and zombies attack from all sides—and from the ground below. The on-screen controls are super-simple (left arrow, right arrow, action button), but this arcade-style game challenges your reflexes with lightning-fast gameplay. And you have just one life to earn an epic score. Like every boss, this dragon has weak spots. The trick is getting close enough to strike them.
Main feature:
- Endless RPG action game for the first time in the world
- Hundreds of quests that players can conquer
- Perfect Retro Graphic
- 6 unique character classes: knights, wizards, minions, archers, and Niners
- Endless trophy: tons of weapons, armor and magic
- Face up to legendary monsters and bosses
- 3 unique game modes
- Ranking your game against your friends
How to install?
If you are a regular gamer and looking for new games on Android, you know how to install games from the APK file. Here are instructions for you to download and install Slayin MOD for Android:
- Remove the current version of the game you installed, if available
- Download the game's APK file we provide below.
- Install the APK file and wait for the installation to complete
- All done
Note: To install the APK of the game, you need to set up a device that can install apps that are not on Google Play. To do this you need to go to: Setup> Security> in the Device Manager section, select Unknown sources (Allow installation of apps not from Market). You can see this article.
