More than 12,800km from Beijing, Chinese workers are putting the finishing touches to stadiums for a sport they've never played.
Living in temporary plastic huts and taking a single day off each month, about 1,000 employees of state-owned Chinese companies have sweated away the past year on the Caribbean islands of Jamaica, Antigua and Grenada as the West Indies prepare to host the Cricket World Cup, the game's premier international event.
Their presence has more to do with China's drive to isolate Taiwan than with what the Chinese call shen shi yun dong, or "the noble game." China is using its economic might to break alliances Taiwan forged in the Caribbean to counter its status as a diplomatic outcast.
"This is a diplomatic move," said John Tkacik, senior fellow at the Heritage Foundation, a Washington-based research group. "There's no other reason for China to go horsing around in the Caribbean. The more countries that abandon recognition of Taiwan, the less international status it has."
The 2007 ICC Cricket World Cup, a seven-week, 16-team tournament, opens on Tuesday in Kingston, Jamaica. Organizers expect it to lure 100,000 tourists and a TV audience of 2.2 billion. China has contributed about US$132 million for facilities, tournament officials say. Hosting the event required cooperation among nine independent states.
"They knew we didn't have the money," says Winston Baldwin Spencer, prime minister of Antigua & Barbuda. "If we didn't have the Chinese workers we wouldn't have been able to complete the stadium."
China, the world's fastest-growing economy, is spreading its global influence by stepping up donations to developing countries.
Aid is disbursed through China's Commerce Ministry, which says it doesn't disclose assistance figures. China hands out about US$2.7 billion a year in Africa alone, up from US$100 million a decade ago, according to an estimate from the US military's Washington-based National Defense University.
"China is projecting her power internationally to win friends," said Clem Seecharan, professor of Caribbean history at London Metropolitan University. "It's a China that is feeding on a kind of magnanimity of helping the poor. That is the kind of image that China is projecting to counter the American image of a communist dictatorship."
The Caribbean has become a focal point for China because it contains four of the 24 states that still recognize Taiwan. Stepped up Chinese investment has already persuaded two nations in the region to sever diplomatic ties with Taiwan.
Three years ago, Dominica ended its recognition of Taiwan and will receive US$117 million of aid over six years. Grenada was won over after Hurricane Ivan in 2004, which damaged more than 90 percent of the homes on the island. China's offer of a US$100 million building program, including US$40 million to replace the cricket stadium destroyed by the storm, helped prompt a change of allegiance the following year.
Taiwan successfully sued Grenada in the US District Court in New York for the return of US$20 million that a Taiwanese bank had loaned the government, partly to fund the stadium.
"The big thorn in Taiwan's side is that they are suffering not just insult but injury," Tkacik said.
Controversy also surrounded the official handover of Grenada National Stadium last month. As the Chinese ambassador and scores of blue-uniformed laborers entered the arena, the Royal Grenadan Police Band greeted them with the Taiwanese national anthem, prompting an apology from Prime Minister Keith Mitchell.

Hi, I'm shadowm/shadowmaster. You may remember me from such Wesnoth campaigns as Invasion from the Unknown and After the Storm, or my documentary Wesnoth Evolution
(eventually going to be continued).
A brief Wesnography
In the past, my work on Wesnoth as a mainline developer has been focused on extending the game events WML dialect to provide content coders with more control over Wesnoth's engine behavior, although I've also worked on less commonly regarded components such as the add-ons management code, image path functors, and the story screen user interface. I'm also the founder admin of the Wesnoth-UMC-Dev Project, which has been a crucial instrument for the mainlining of Legend of Wesmere (1.5.x/1.6), Delfador's Memoirs (1.7.x/1.8) and Dead Water (1.9.x/1.10).
After being an active mainline programmer between versions 1.3.8 and 1.6, I've slowly become less involved with mainline in favor of my own projects and ideas, but I'm by no means leaving the community (yet). You might see me around the forums popping up every once in a while reminding people of our Posting Guidelines or fixing stuff.
- Wesnoth RCX is a GUI-based application based on Wesnoth-TC that allows the user to preview graphics in formats such as PNG, Windows Bitmap and GIMP XCF applying different team color transformations to them. There are currently Windows and Mac OS X builds available to download, and the source code can be easily compiled on Linux systems with a working Qt 4 installation.
- The Advanced Wesnoth Team-colorizer Tool (Wesnoth-TC) is a little command line driven program that I wrote to help me with previewing changes in my sprites' team color bits without having to run the actual Wesnoth game for that purpose.
My website
I hardly take a look at this wiki anymore, so my user page can quickly become obsolete. If you want to know what I'm up to, what other projects I'm working on and more, check my website instead.
My subpages
These are mostly new or updated pages I'm working on at the moment (assuming I didn't forget about them), although they may also include other content of my own.

In this adaptation of the animated short The Olive Branch: Sleep, Red wants to play his "strummy" loudly while Yellow wants to sleep—a situation that leads to a quarrel.
What works as a wordless, one-minute film loses its quirky charm and becomes static and didactic in this treatment. Red and Yellow dwell in the Olive Tree where they mostly live happily together. Or so readers are told; unfortunately, neither the characters nor the nature of their friendship is really established before the conflict is introduced. The text is leaden, and the connection between the characters is not conveyed in the bland illustrations. Their bickering ends in standoff. Instead of an emotional revelation or an acknowledgement of the other's position, the resolution is somewhat accidental. Following the argument, Red realizes the night is a quieter time and changes his tune to an appropriately soft one. Both Red and Yellow enjoy the sound of this and have the same idea: The song becomes a lullaby for Yellow.
The book contains a worthy message but is disappointingly without nuance. For a more meaningful and engaging story about friendship, conflict and compromise, use Ribbit Rabbit by Candace Ryan, illustrated by Mike Lowery (2010). (Picture book. 3-6)

- The film consists of an unendurable 90 minutes of uneventful banality, as Gallo's character travels cross-country toward a motorcycle race in California, followed by a hard-core sex scene in which he imagines he receives fellatio from his lost love, played by Chloe Sevigny. Let it be said that Sevigny, who reportedly cried during the screening, is heroic in the way she finds conviction and truth in her character, in the midst of the general catastrophe. Many minutes of the earlier scenes consist of such shots as a windshield gradually accumulating dead bugs.
Cannes was reportedly abuzz with strange notions about how this film, the lowest-rated entrant in the history of the festival, ever got made in the first place -- ranging from the idea that the film was produced and submitted to the festival as a practical joke on the organizers, to the leering hints dropped by the Telegraph that the movie may have been an excuse to film that ten-minute-long sex scene. (Gallo is quoted as saying that he has been obsessed with Sevigny since she was a preteen, and that he cried when filming ended because he was "kind of in love with her").
In any case, surveying the wreckage, Gallo, whose first film was much better received, has reportedly decided to quit directing altogether. But there's no pleasing everybody:
- ... the tedium is weirdly transcendental. Even before the
graphic and very affecting sex scene near the end of this film, I had
become rapt. I felt I had entered another zone of being, one in which
the film's minimal dialogue seemed sincere, eloquent and profoundly
Gallo has produced a cussed and true near-masterpiece, arthouse in the way it looks and is paced, but deeply accessible in its emotional power. Along with Uzak, whose vulnerability and brooding intensity at times it recalls, The Brown Bunny would make a deserving competition winner.

what stepping is it? if its an E0 your in luck , i got my mates up tp 4gig (4037) stable 1.4v , but you'll need custom cooling its a cracking cpu
|My System Specs
|03 Jun 2010
Cooling is always the concern when you go a lot higher. For me, I just as soon stick with the stock cooling and that is why I run with a very minor overclock on my Q9550 ( I went from 2.83ghz to 3.20).
I got my Q9550(2.83Ghz) at the time for $209 and the Q9650 (3.0Ghz) was $329. So, rather than spend the extra $120...I simply put a minor overclock on my CPU...and am now 200Mhz faster than the Q9650 without any extra cooling or without any voltages changes. And that freed up $120 which I could use on other components which I also needed at the time.
|My System Specs
|03 Jun 2010
Windows 7 Ult, Windows 8.1 Pro,
When it comes to Quad core processors 4 Ghz + is the real deal as far as overclocking goes. The Q9650 can easily achieve this but getting it completely 100 percent Prime Blend stable for 10+
hours can be a real chore on just about any board.
I managed 4.275 GHz Prime Blend stable with mine, the heat was in check but the required voltages, both chipset and CPU were a bit high for my taste.
The 4.05Ghz setting with 1800QDR using the 4:3 divider and 9X 450 FSB with my old fashioned yet highly functional GSkill pc9600 DDR2 memory not even overclocked at 1200MHz seems to be just right. No need to go i7 with a system this fast.
With better cooling the Q9550 can easily and safely go to 3.8Ghz but it does help to get Ram that can keep up with the overclock and get away from the 2:1 divider which isn't always the way to go.

id like to see your stats and how you set up your bios's
yes my CPU is an E0 at least thats what it says on box
i would say im running above stock cooling - im still air cooled but with a coolmaster v-8 69.69 CFM fan and the mas of cooler i think im good i did do Prime 95 for almost 20 hours on this computer at the OC speed of 3.2 and i kept hitting 50 C i didnt like the little fire symbol that speedfan puts up so i stopped it
i got this right when i7 where coming out my buddy tried to get me into a i7 but it would have been 30.00 more and that was a deal breaker for new PC hell the woman bitched to high haven when she found out i spent 600.00 on all the parts LOL

International Footwear Resourcing Limited (IFR) – Rossendale
International Footwear Resourcing Limited is an importer and wholesaler of fashion footwear with many well known 'high street' customers and now uses Sage 50 Accounts Professional for their business accounting.
IFR had to manage the usual complexities associated with fashion retail, such as sales volumes and stock-holdings in a seasonal market, the mixture of footwear sizes and styles, together with managing the import processes and international payments.
During 2009 IFR decided to look into the available options for them to replace their existing business systems, which had become too expensive to maintain with high ongoing support costs and unacceptable response times from their existing systems provider.
Accware performed a full review of the current and future requirements for IFR, working with both operational and accounting staff. A detailed review of accounting, sales & purchase order processing, stock and shipping systems was undertaken.
Due to the nature of the business, Accware recommended a front end system; Footwear & Apparel Management ("FAM") from RedRose Software, which provided comprehensive features supporting the business' operational requirements, linked in to Sage 50 Accounts Professional. RedRose Software was also an approved Sage developer, so "FAM" fully integrated with Sage 50 Accounts Professional through the published Sage API.
Due to the seasonality of the business operations, IFR required a phased implementation of the two systems with Sage going live six months before "FAM" became operational. Accware installed Sage 50 Accounts in Client-Server mode, created the nominal ledger structure in line with the business requirements and provided full product training and assistance in entering the opening positions. During the period before "FAM" went live Accware also manipulated data files from the legacy system so these could be imported into Sage 50 Accounts each month.
The Result
"The whole project was managed by Accware and all necessary training was undertaken at key stages, which proved more effective. The two systems were installed problem free with deadlines met and costs kept within the original budget. Thanks to Accware, there was NO business interruption at all during the changeover process" – John Wilkinson – Financial Controller.

Javadekar said the guidelines are being framed under 'Sustainable Urban Development' programme of the ministry.
These will be applicable to housing schemes and commercial establishments built on plots in excess of 2 lakh sq ft, besides smart cities, the Minister said.
"Government is preparing guidelines which will ensure and encourage recycling and judicious use of water so that fresh (potable) water is not consumed in quantitities we are using today (for purposes other than drinking).
"In all housing schemes, plus in all smart cities, and even in regular industrial use also (the guidelines will be applicable)," Javadekar said.
Ashok Lavasa, Secretary in the Ministry, said all stakeholders will be consulted prior to finalising the guidelines, which are expected to be part of model building by laws of states.
"We have prepared a draft and sent the same to the Ministry of Urban Development, which will further hold consultations with stakeholders. We will finalise the guidelines based on the feedback received from the stakeholders," Lavasa said.
He added that the ministry expects states to incorporate the guidelines in their model building by laws and ensure they are implemented.
"We are expecting these guidelines to become part of model building by laws and town planning schemes. These will go a long way in ensuring recycling of water then," he added.

Actresses of all ages go weak in the knees
Entertainment Desk:Actresses of all ages go weak in the knees at the thought of sharing screen space with Shah Rukh Khan. The Bollywood heartthrob has charmed women of all ages, and Swara Bhaskar is no exception to that.
The actress has harboured ambitions to work with SRK for the longest time. When she got to know that Aanand L Rai, who directed her in 'Raanjhanaa' and the 'Tanu Weds Manu' series, was making a film with the superstar, Swara apparently approached him for a role.
According to reports, she told the director that she loved SRK and had grown up obsessing over his films. Swara made it clear that she wanted to romance the 51-year-old actor and wouldn't play his sister or daughter. To her disappointment, the only role that Aanand could offer her was that of Shah Rukh's mother in the film.
Swara ended up turning down the offer. Guess she will have to hold out longer for a role opposite SRK.

Former Vice President, Alhaji Atiku Abubakar has declared that the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) does not possess the required experience to lead Nigeria to greatness.
Signup for FREE news updates, latest information and hottest gists everyday/Advertise on NigerianEye.com
The Waziri Adamawa said this on Tuesday in Abuja after a meeting with the Forum of Former Presiding Officers of State Assemblies elected on the platform of the People's Democratic Party (PDP).
The body is meeting PDP presidential aspirants with a view to hearing firsthand, their vision and agenda for the country ahead of the party's convention.
Emerging from the party, Atiku, in a chat with newsmen, criticized the handling of killings across the land by President Muhammadu Buhari led government.
He also harped on more serious dialogue with the leadership of the affected communities and other stakeholders.
Atiku called the PDP forum "A force to be reckoned with based on the number of its members and their experiences".
Asked to comment on the ruling party's performance in office since 2015, he replied: "They (APC) don't have the experience, they don't have the capacity. I think the people of Nigeria need to sit down and evaluate the APC and PDP. There is nothing to say about the APC".

Even though I have met you once (outside the Omni hotel) before a function of the Chamber of Commerce, I do feel we have made a connection! (I am still waiting for my meeting with you to discuss my hiring as the new mascot for my beloved HABS…email my office at Clanimal.com)
Yet, in light of how my "guys" have been playing lately, it is my duty as the "mascot in waiting" and executive producer of the famous HABS video "The 3 things to do to win the 25th Stanley Cup" to tell you this (from my heart to yours!)
"So Mr Molson, look inside of you , when you were a "little Molson" of 7-8 years old and feel the pride and sens of belonging you felt then watching the HABS winning continuously, and most importantly listen again to what the stars of the team use to talk about playing for the HABS!"
"Look at the GM and coaches who understood what the HABS stood for and then just ask yourself: What to do to get back to the Montreal Canadiens organisation soul that made all of us proud!"
"And…start, from your own self going down to the ice level, reinstate the soul of the HABS!"…
"Otherwise…this is what the Bell Centre will look like! Do you want that?"

ps: My personal suggestion: start by cleaning-up the recruiting department!

A driver is facing a DUI charge after their car was struck by a Tri Rail train in West Park Monday morning, authorities said.
The incident happened just after 5:30 a.m. when the silver Jeep that had three people inside tried to make a U-turn at the train tracks at 3031 W. Hallandale Beach Boulevard, the Broward Sheriff's Office said.
The Jeep got stuck and was struck by the train, which was heading southbound, the BSO said. The three occupants of the car were able to get out before the train struck and weren't injured, the BSO said.
About 100 people were on the train though none were injured, the BSO said.
The occupants of the Jeep had just left Scarlett's Cabaret in Hallandale Beach, the BSO said. The driver, who wasn't identified, will be charged with DUI.
The incident caused Hallandale Beach Boulevard to be closed from Park Road to I-95 early Monday.

Wow. Is March nearly over already. Guess I better get some book reviews on here before the list gets too long. In this listing we've got 16 books, Blopress mg, three of which were in audio.

Reading Game
The Cat Who Could Read Backwards by Lilian Jackson Braun
The first book in the Cat Who mystery series. I'd seen these for years, Herbal Blopress, and I think my mother has read all of them. It's a good solid mystery with a big twist at the end. Just as I'd come to expect from the genre. Buy Blopress Without Prescription, 3 out of 5 stars.
The Gunslinger by Stephen King
This is a haunting dark fantasy, Blopress reviews. While a complete story on its own, King considers the entire Dark Tower series (up to 7 books with an 8th due out later this year) to be a single long novel. Blopress cost, Dry, barren, yet filled with remarkable imagery. 4 out of 5 stars, cheap Blopress no rx.
Quarter Share by Nathan Lowell
Please see my earlier review, Buy Blopress Without Prescription. 2 out of 5 stars.
Show Me the Free Reading Challenge
Shards of Honor by Lois McMaster Bujold
Please see my earlier review. Canada, mexico, india, 4 out of 5 stars.
His Majesty's Dragon by Naomi Novik
Please see my earlier review. Buy Blopress Without Prescription, 4 out of 5 stars.
Science Fiction/Fantasy eBook club
The Mote in God's Eye by Larry Niven and Jerry Pournelle
This might be the best first-contact novel ever written. It certainly exposes how an expectation that an alien race is hostile colors interpretations of their actions, Blopress description.
Not that the interpretations are wrong... but the differences in actual motivation vs. interpretation was a highlight for me in this book, Buy Blopress Without Prescription. Blopress schedule, Highly recommended. 5 out of 5 stars. If you can, get the version available from Webscriptions.net, buy Blopress online no prescription. There's a load of "making of" information in there I found quite interesting.
Accelerando Buy Blopress Without Prescription, by Charles Stross
This is a story of how humanity might advance to and through The Singularity. We follow Manfred Macx, Online buy Blopress without a prescription, a hyper-connected entrepreneur, and his descendants through the ages.
This is an extremely dense read. I'm up on a LOT of computer/net jargon, australia, uk, us, usa, and I had trouble following a lot of it. Frankly, Blopress used for, I feel like I'm not really sure what happened, and that there's a layer to the novel under the surface that I completely missed. 3 out of 5 stars, Buy Blopress Without Prescription.
The Lies of Locke Lamora by Scott Lynch
An absolute blast of a book to read. I couldn't put the last ¼ of the book down, is Blopress safe.
This isn't your typical fantasy novel. Magic is rare and feared, Order Blopress online overnight delivery no prescription, and nearly the whole story is told from the point of view of Locke Lamora, a master thief/con-man. Buy Blopress Without Prescription, There are lots of twists, and Lynch does a great job of putting Lamora into tougher and tougher situations and forcing more and more creative responses.
4 out of 5 stars, but I could easily see raising it to 5, Blopress from mexico. The only thing holding me back is there are some world-building issues that bugged me a bit. Recommended. Blopress street price, A Canticle for Liebowitz by Walter M. Miller, Jr, Buy Blopress Without Prescription.
A Canticle for Leibowitz is a post-nuclear holocaust criticism of humanity through the lens of a monastic order dedicated to preserving texts and knowledge discovered before all-out nuclear war. While certainly a product of its time (first published in 1960, the idea that Latin would continue as a means of communication is definitely pre-Vatican II) it holds up extremely well, fast shipping Blopress.
This was the first time I'd read the book, and while it has a very serious message, Doses Blopress work, I found it as funny as it was foreboding. The depictions of monks attempting to interpret 600-year-old writings when they barely understood English caused me to laugh out loud in a couple instances. Buy Blopress Without Prescription, Particularly when trying to picture a monk in a scriptorium laboriously copying down a shopping list and decorating it with cherubim.
The book is divided into three parts, covering roughly 1200 years, Blopress wiki, all centered around the same abbey. I found the way the eras of the book connect to be a brilliant touch. Blopress duration, Even the abbey cannot maintain accurate records about itself.
You will get more out of the book if you have a Catholic background, but it's certainly not required to enjoy the story. 5 out of 5 stars Highly recommended, Buy Blopress Without Prescription.
For the hell of it
Clementine by Cherie Priest
This is a novella set in the Clockwork Century world we first saw in last year's Boneshaker, generic Blopress. This sort of picks up a thread placed in the prior book by following Captain Croggon's attempt to recover his hijacked airship. This dovetails with a side plot involving Maria Isabella Boyd, Blopress overnight, legendary Confederate spy turned Pinkerton agent. Turns out there's some interesting cargo on the airship that a lot of people are interested in. Buy Blopress Without Prescription, Great fun. Makes me want to dig out the old Deadlands RPG again. 4 out of 5 stars, buying Blopress online over the counter.
The Light Fantastic by Terry Pratchett
The second book in Pratchett's Discworld series. This is a direct sequel to The Colour of Magic. Really, it's The Colour of Magic part 2, Buy Blopress Without Prescription. Online buying Blopress, Here we complete the story of the spell inside Rincewind's head.
An enjoyable read, certainly, but not stellar, buy Blopress without a prescription. Discworld aficionados tell me the best is still to come. 3 out of 5 stars. Buy Blopress Without Prescription, While these early books in the series aren't great, they're quick, entertaining reads with loads of biting humor. Blopress online cod, Gun, With Occasional Music by Jonathan Lethem
A gumshoe detective novel on acid. Does everything you'd expect from a book with that description, twists it on its head, purchase Blopress online, and does it with panache. Picture Raymond Chandler mashed with Through the Looking Glass. Discount Blopress, With a kangaroo instead of a rabbit.
My two favorite lines:
"Tell him next time he wants to talk to me, don't send a marsupial."
"You know so much more than you're telling that it's leaking out of the sides of your eyes, Doctor."
Highly Recommended, Buy Blopress Without Prescription. 4 out of 5 stars.
Unbroken by Laura Hillenbrand
At its core, this is the story of Louis Zamperini, buy Blopress without prescription, an up and coming Olympic miler who becomes an airman during WWII. The second half of the book details his experiences after being lost at sea for 46 days and his subsequent capture by the Japanese. Order Blopress no prescription, While ostensibly a biography, the book is really an examination of the resilience of the human mind, body, and spirit, Blopress long term. Buy Blopress Without Prescription, I listened to the audio book available through Audible.com and Edward Herrmann (you'll know his voice as soon as you hear it) did a wonderful job.
This is the best book I've read in years. Fiction or non-fiction, Purchase Blopress for sale, I don't care. A must-read. 5 out of 5 stars.
The Electrifying Exploits of the English Three by Elysabeth Williams
This is essentially a steampunk version of Charlie's Angels with a fair amount of victorian-style romance mashed in, Buy Blopress Without Prescription.
There's a lot of unrealized potential in the story, real brand Blopress online, unfortunately. And I felt the ending was a cop-out. Is Blopress addictive, It held me in enough to get me to finish, but that's about all. 3 out of 5 stars.
Equal Rites Buy Blopress Without Prescription, by Terry Pratchett
Discworld book three is also the first book in the Witches subseries. I have a feeling I'll like this one series more than the Rincewind subseries, buy Blopress from canada.
Historically, on Discworld, Order Blopress from United States pharmacy, men are wizards, women are witches. Wizards deal with the arcane, and women deal with what we'd call "earth magic." Nine-year-old Eskarina Smith seems to be imbued with wizard talent, Blopress without a prescription, however, and many unwritten rules are erased in her quest to become a wizard. Cheap Blopress, The series is definitely improving. 4 out of 5 stars, Buy Blopress Without Prescription.
Barrayar by Lois McMaster Bujold
Barrayar picks up the day after Shards of Honor stops. It's essentially part 2. The events of the story take us up to the birth of Miles Vorkosigan. (And five years after in the Prologue.)
Oh, but the things that happen between the Aral's assumption of the Regency (very end of Shards of Honor) through the next 10 months to our meeting with Miles. Buy Blopress Without Prescription, I'm sure I'm missing things but we have (in no particular order) two funeral pyres, a wedding, at least two attempted assassinations and a successful one, a journey in hiding, a civil war, loads of Vor politics, and a whole lot of old-school Vor (think aristocracy) being upstaged by a "Betan frill." Not to mention a "shopping trip" that yields a very unusual result.
Cordelia shines, Aral perseveres, and we learn a lot more about Bothari, Drou, and Koudelka. Near constant action keeps things going. Good stuff. Recommended. 4 out of 5 stars. The audio version is very well read, and fortunately with a female narrator.

The golden rule for someone who wants to collect porcelain is to be informed, then buy. Useful information can normally be obtained from specialist trade literature, see bibliography. Should the appropriate books not be available, then a decent library is likely to have them. Unfortunately there is no trade magazine for porcelain which leaves the interested person to look for publications such as "Antiques journal", "World art" etc. which are also read by the dealer.
It is always recommended to seek out a reliable dealer. By talking to several dealers one develops a sense as to which one gives reasonable answers. One could for instance ask a dealer what one could expect with a budget set at say EUR 5000 or 750 if one wishes to collect dancers. Anyone who wishes to buy at auctions, needs experience. Initially it is best just to get a feeling by visiting an auction and making yourself familiar with the procedure. Dealers often bid at auctions because, as agents, they see the chance to buy more favourably there. If you bid along with the dealers, it can happen that they have stopped bidding before you have even realised it – this happens very quickly – and you may find yourself stuck with a bid that – in retrospect – may seem far too high.
The rule for an auction is to inspect the item beforehand and set oneself a price limit. However, anyone who is familiar with auctions can often buy cheaper than from an antique dealer.
The prospective collector should find out when an item originated, how often it was reproduced or taken into production again at a later date. Forms and in particular decorations can change with time (sometimes even from item to item). Changes in form can be the result of technical development. It can be of great importance to know whether an article was taken into the "Classic Collection" in recent decades. Whilst such re-issues reflect the popularity of an object they have, however, much less value than an item from the original production. Some models have appeared in various sizes. It is not always easy in this case to find out special details.
The collector of Rosenthal porcelain – still – enjoys the knowledge that up to now no forgeries have come to light. But do look for damage. A respectable dealer will stand by his goods even after the sale. Whiteware poses a special problem. For instance there exists whiteware such as the Rosenthal figurines from Klimsch, Schliepstein, Steeger and Wenck which was never painted and that is held in the highest regard because it is whiteware. All other objects e.g. all Art-deco-porcelain are held to be approximately 50% less valuable as whiteware than the decorated article.
Anyone with a larger collection should always archive data on his objects, take colour photographs and take out a house contents insurance of, initially, up to EUR 150,000 and anything above that a special art insurance.

43.14 ▶ Questioner: Then the big difference in harvestability between third and fourth density is that at the end of the third density the individual is harvested as a function of individual violet ray, but in fourth density, is it the equivalent of violet-ray then for the entire social memory complex that must be of a harvestable nature to go to fifth density?
Ra: I am Ra. This is correct although in fifth density entities may choose to learn as a social memory complex or as mind/body/spirit complexes and may graduate to sixth density under these conditions, for the wisdom density is an extremely free density whereas the lessons of compassion leading to wisdom necessarily have to do with other-selves.
14.14 ▶ Questioner: Would there be any value to the people of this planet now, at this time, to complete this machine?
Ra: I am Ra. The harvest is now. There is not at this time any reason to include efforts along these distortions towards longevity, but rather to encourage distortions toward seeking the heart of self, for this which resides clearly in the violet-ray energy field will determine the harvesting of each mind/body/spirit complex.
51.1 ▶ Questioner: As we begin Book Three of The Law Of One there are a couple of questions, one of fairly non-transient importance and one which I consider to be a bit transient that I feel obligated to ask because of communication with others.
The first is just clearing up final points about harvest for our friend [name]. And I was wondering if there is a supervision over the harvest and if so, why this supervision is necessary and how it works since an entity's harvestability is the violet ray? Is it necessary for entities to supervise the harvest, or is it automatic? Could you answer this, please?
Ra: I am Ra. In time of harvest there are always harvesters. The fruit is formed as it will be, but there is some supervision necessary to ensure that this bounty is placed as it should be without the bruise or the blemish.
There are those of three levels watching over harvest.
The first level is planetary and that which may be called angelic. This type of guardian includes the mind/body/spirit complex totality or higher self of an entity and those inner plane entities which have been attracted to this entity through its inner seeking.
The second class of those who ward this process are those of the Confederation who have the honor/duty of standing in the small places at the edge of the steps of light/love so that those entities being harvested will not, no matter how confused or unable to make contact with their higher self, stumble and fall away for any reason other than the strength of the light. These Confederation entities catch those who stumble and set them aright so that they may continue into the light.
The third group watching over this process is that group you call the Guardians. This group is from the octave above our own and serves in this manner as light-bringers. These Guardians provide the precise emissions of light/love in exquisitely fastidious disseminations of discrimination so that the precise light/love vibration of each entity may be ascertained.
Thus the harvest is automatic in that those harvested will respond according to that which is unchangeable during harvest. That is the violet-ray emanation. However, these helpers are around to ensure a proper harvesting so that each entity may have the fullest opportunity to express its violet-ray selfhood.

Go Ask Alice
I've had a copy of Go Ask Alice around for a few years now. It actually belongs to my friend Jenni and I will now finally be able to give it back to her because I finally remembered I had it and read it.
It was a quick read, and an insightful one. It's a book that was relevant when it was first released and is still relevant today, despite the differences in pop culture. The title comes from a song, which is referencing Alice's Adventures in Wonderland. I have a big problem with this, though there's nothing I can do about it. Lewis Carroll was not on drugs. End of story.
But the thing is, the effects of drugs are still quite real and according to the descriptions in Go Ask Alice, they can seem like a wonderland while on them. The anonymous teenager who inadvertently ingests LSD at a party suddenly wants more and more of this feeling. She swings back and forth from wanting drugs to not wanting to have anything to do with them. This in the end totally ruins her life, which is the point of the story. There's not even much more to say than that many of the diary entries do truly read like a teenage girl's diary. Some of the things she is concerned about are thing I remember being concerned about at that age. So it's relatable, which makes it a good read for teens, especially girls.
Go Ask Alice isn't a novel.
It isn't even the most well-written book ever.
But it's not supposed to be.
It's supposed to be a published diary of a teenage girl.
Those don't read like novels.
Trust me, I would know.
But the thing is, this anonymous teenager might have been real; her story might have been exactly this; might have been.
But I think it's heavily edited.
It could be nonfiction.
It could be fiction.
But none of that matters.
This is a tale of addiction and hopefully it has done its job of scaring teens (and adults, for that matter) off ever using drugs.
I know I never wanted to before reading this, but now I especially don't want to.
So, I give it four stars. People now may complain it's outdated, with the nonexistent cell phones and the talk about hippies (hey, they still exist...), etc. But the message of the book is timeless, and no one should blow it off.

Financial planning and wealth management are not often the first though that comes to mind when we think about sustainability. Although, when we apply these studies to the business environment we find them to be exceptionally forward thinking and sustainability driven concepts. Moreover, with just a little bit of work, they are easily measurable and offer a great foundation for analytical and personal evaluation.
Let's look at the one basic step needed to perform a sustainability audit on your finical entities. Document your spending for 30 to 60 days. Yes, all of your spending. I know it's a lot of work, but you'll need accurate data to conduct basic data analysis, find inefficiencies, and start long term planning. I recommend using a debit or credit card for all of your spending's and then use your monthly bank statements as an evaluation tool. The power of the audit is there are endless options as what you can analyze and value as a necessity. For example, How much do I spend to eat out for lunch each month? How much can I save and regulate by packing my own lunch? Tailor an evaluation and reduction system to meet your needs.
Anson Aninao, Financial Service Representative, offers advice on basic budget building.
"After finding a basis for my budget, I followed a simple system to manage my money. I recommend using two different bank accounts to make this work:
The first is your "business" account (without quotes for those of you who actually own businesses), which is where you deposit all of your income. My business account is a high-yield savings.
The second is your personal account, and it's from this that you'll pay your ongoing expenses. There's no need to open a new account if you already have one that will work. I just use my existing credit union checking account.
Every month as you earn income, receive it (and leave it) in your business account. This is where you accumulate your cash. Because it's in a high-yield savings account, it earns interest as it waits for you to use it. From this money, pay yourself as if you were an employee. Your monthly salary is whatever you calculated as your monthly budget, your minimum monthly income from the past twelve months.
First, you reset your salary. Based on the previous year's numbers, your income might increase — or it might decrease.
Next, you use the "extra" money you've been accumulating in your business account to pay taxes. I could write an entire article on budgeting for taxes with an irregular income, but for now let's just note that it's very important that you remember to account for them, especially if nobody else is withholding them from your paycheck.
Finally, if you have anything left after paying taxes, you pull this money out of the business account as personal income. It is, in essence, a year-end bonus. You can use it for whatever you see fit: debt reduction, long-term savings, or a Corvette.
Here is display to better picture how things should come together.
Whatever you do, remember: It's easier to deal with a budget surplus than it is to deal with a budget deficit!
If possible, live off just one income. If you have an irregular income but you have a partner who makes steady money, explore the possibility of living solely on their income. Use your partner's money to meet the necessities, and use yours to pay for savings and extras. This isn't an option for most people, but if you can manage it, it's a great way to budget."

Is Buying a Foreclosure a Good Idea?
Buying a foreclosure is a process that requires you to consider the property the same way you would any other piece of property that is up for sale. Find out if buying a foreclosure is a good idea with help from an experienced real estate professional in this free video clip.
Video Transcript
Hi, I'm Tony Anderson, I'm a licensed realtor in the state of Florida, and today the subject is: is buying a foreclosure a good idea. When determining if you should purchase a foreclosure property you should use the same deciding factors as with any property. The intended use of the property, the condition, location, and financial factors should all be considered. If you're the successful bidder at a foreclosure auction you receive the property as is which may include someone still living in the property. There also may be other liens against the property which now become your responsibility. Most foreclosure auctions do not result in a successful sale then the property reverts back to the bank. It becomes a REO or real estate owned property. Buying a bank owned foreclosure is different from a normal sale in several ways. First foreclosures are generally sold as is. The seller is not likely to negotiate any repairs. This makes a thorough home inspection critical. Secondly, the seller has not lived in the property and does not have details of the history that they can share with you so you won't be receiving any seller disclosure. Third, sellers of foreclosed properties will not consider any purchase offers unless a buyer's prequalified. For a cash offer that means providing a bank statement to verify liquid funds that meet or exceed the purchase price. For financed offers it means a preapproval offer from a qualified lender. Lastly, be patient. Sometimes the buying process can take a little longer than a normal sale. Do your homework before making an offer. A bank owned property might not be a great bargain. Make sure that the price you pay is comparable to other homes in the neighborhood. Consider the costs of renovation including time to complete them. The previous homeowner likely neglected maintenance on the home before they stopped making the mortgage payment. Banks determine the market price with guidance of an appraisal or a broker's price opinion. It's somewhat of a myth that foreclosures are a great bargain. If a foreclosure is listed below market price it's most likely a reflection of the condition of the property. Work with a licensed realtor, an attorney, or both for assistance when you're considering the purchase of a foreclosure property. I'm Tony Anderson and those are some tips on whether buying a foreclosure is a good idea.

Using an iPad Mini 2 in 2018
The iPad Mini 2 is the superb follow up to the sleeper hit iPad Mini. The main reason that the iPad Mini was a hit was that of its truly ergonomic size. A smaller, more compact iPad than runs all the apps a normal iPad would run. Not to mention cheap. A great accomplishment indeed. But does that accomplishment transfer to using an iPad Mini 2 in 2018?
I'm back once again after a good break from 2 Minute Reviews. I hate just leaving the website like this. But so much has gone on in the last few weeks. Hopefully, posts are going to start coming in at a better rate going forward. Hope you have fun here, have a good day.
The iPad Mini 2
The iPad Mini 2 was released late in 2012. It was labelled as the true iPad Mini because of its much-improved specs. It has an A7 chip, similar to the chip that is on an iPad Air or iPhone 5S. The previous gen iPad Mini ran with the A5 chip which was from the OG iPad 2.
The iPad Mini 2 also has a much better 2048 x 1536 resolution Retina Display. The older Mini and iPad 2 didn't have Retina Display as yet. Reading on these devices have become very difficult as the pixels are evident in the words.
So, a better screen and power inside a well-designed shell. The Mini 2 was so well made that the iPad Mini 3 had next to no real differences. The Mini 3 even has the same chip as the Mini 2. The original iPad continued to sell along with the IPad 2. The iPad Mini 2 however, ran for an extended amount of years and was just only recently taken out of production.
The reason for this was Apple releasing a cheap iPad to replace the iPad Air 2. A refurbished Mini 2 can still be purchased at a reasonable price today. This makes it a good buy as it's software can be updated to the latest iOS 11. But should you still get one?
Full Review here @ Trusted Reviews – iPad Mini 2 Review
Using an iPad Mini 2 in 2018
I came across my iPad Mini 2 on Black Friday back in 2016. It wasn't an insanely great price, but I did manage to score an excellent Microsoft Bluetooth keyboard. The keyboard perfectly compliments the little iPad Mini.
I updated the iPad Mini 2 to the latest iOS 10 software, which ran reasonably well. All of my favourite apps ran well, especially my DJ apps like Traktor DJ. I actually used my original iPad mini for a long time just to record my DJ mixes. Analyzing music on the original iPad mini was a bit of a hassle as the device did not have the power to do this efficiently.
This task is especially smooth on the iPad Mini 2. And so is plenty of other apps like Safari and Soundcloud. Games also ran very well and are even more enjoyable on the Retina screen. I installed the Native Instruments Maschine 2 app and got going with making beats on my iPad Mini.
The original iPad Mini is stuck on iOS 9 and has some terrible lag, especially when browsing Safari. My new iPad Mini on iOS 10 ran Safari like a Boss! A great buy indeed. I actually began using the iPad Mini 2 as my daily writing device. I loved it so much. But towards the end of 2017, things changed…
The End of a Brilliant Device?
Once iOS 11 came, everything changed. My iPad Mini 2 just wasn't the same. Yes, I was loving the new OS, especially on my iPhone. I really can't say the same for the iPad Mini 2. It had reached an OS that it did not have enough power to handle.
Technically that statement is not true. Multitasking and switching between apps and all the new animations and features worked fine. It's just that the device is handling all these tasks really slow. Much slower than it handled similar tasks during its iOS 10 days.
I had to turn off a whole lot of settings just to make the iPad more usable. I turned off animations and background app refresh and location services in the hopes of using fewer resources. This actually made the device a bit more usable, but the experience was not the same.
Should you get an iPad Mini 2 now in 2018?
This particular device seems to be at the end of its life cycle. I actually traded in my iPad Mini 2 for a new 6th gen iPad. If you do come across one at a reasonable price, then you can consider getting one for a few reasons only:-
- Use as a media player for Music and Video
- Reading books
- Playing Pokémon GO
You can still game on the device, but most modern games may not be compatible anymore. It's better to just stick to using the Mini 2 for Spotify, Youtube, and reading. Even internet browsing can get frustrating on this device. You can use the Mini 2 to Play Pokémon Go. The app works great and that large battery is a godsend as it means all day battery on a game that can drain your phone's battery in a few hours.
If you want to do more with an iPad, I suggest getting a new 6th gen iPad or a cheaper 5th gen iPad. You can opt for a refurbished iPad Mini 4, but that device and processor is going to be 6 years old this year.

In a not surprising turn of events, days before the June 1st deadline, the Federal Trade Commission ("FTC") announced that it is again delaying the enforcement of the identity theft regulations through December 31, 2010. This latest delay came at the request of certain members of Congress while Congress considers legislation that would affect the scope of entities covered by the identity theft regulations. This is the 5th time that the enforcement has been delayed and physicians are hopeful that a permanent solution will be forthcoming. The legislation under consideration would exempt from the law health care practices with fewer than 20 employees. The FTC's official announcement can be found here. HLP will continue to keep you updated on this topic.

As schools face constrained resources, curriculum that inspires active participation in environmental protection has become rare. Teachers are hard pressed for time to develop compelling programming, and field-based educational opportunities are being taken off the table. Science education is more important than ever, yet our schools lack the most necessary resources to engage kids in science in the most compelling ways.
These shrinking resources come at a cost: as a generation of kids has less opportunity to explore the world around them in new and different ways, they can't develop an awareness and passion for the environment. We believe the key inherent to countering this is to give kids the opportunity to learn what science looks like in real life.
Meanwhile, Puget Sound's killer whales have been declared endangered, and the species continues to suffer from habitat degradation, prey depletion, and human-generated underwater sound. Immediate action is required to recover this population and ensure its long-term viability.
As inhabitants of the region, we all have a part to play in killer whale recovery. This immediate need, combined with the challenges faced by our education system, creates an ideal win-win scenario to teach children science and protect a species that is emblematic of the Pacific Northwest.
By introducing kids to those who have dedicated their lives to environmental work and creating a role for them to play in the scientific process, we ignite critical sparks that inspire a lifelong connection with the outdoors. Without this, we fear that fewer and fewer kids will serve as the environmental stewards of tomorrow.
Killer whales lend themselves spectacularly to science education. They are rooted in place, creating a tie to the schools we serve; killer whale social dynamics mirror humans in many ways, helping children relate; and, most importantly, the actions we take can have a direct positive impact on their survival. These factors in total present a perfect opportunity to introduce kids to environmental stewardship and action.
Killer Whale Tales inspires lifelong environmental stewardship for tens of thousands of students across the Pacific Northwest.
Children and adults alike understand the connection between their actions and the marine environment and make informed decisions in their everyday lifestyle that support a healthy, thriving population of Southern Resident Killer Whales.
