Imperial Russian Government [Lithuania-Vilnius Governorate]
[POLISH NOBILITY IN THE RUSSIAN EMPIRE] Sammelband containing Imperial Russian documents certifying that the family Rynkiewicz is entitled to the privileges of szlachta (nobility). Vilnius, 1819.
Folio (350 x 280 mm), original straight grain red morocco with borders in green morocco elaborately tooled in gilt, upper board with contrasting green morocco label lettered in gilt in Polish (a little rubbed and scuffed); attached by its original cord is a circular brass case (unopened, but likely to contain the seal of herb Nalewka); original string binding and marbled endpapers; ff [2] (blank laid paper); [4] manuscript dated 24 December 1819, in Polish in a legal hand with calligraphic title and watercolour illustration of the Nalewka coat of arms, being an extract from the Books of Nobility of the Lithuania-Vilnius Governorate detailing four generations of the Rynkiewicz lineage starting with Kasper Rynkiewicz and moving forward to the present-day, ennumerating the family's estates and their serfs, signed by the Marshall of Vilnius Mykolai Abramovicz and notaries recto of last leaf (fine parchment); [4] manuscript Russian translation of the preceding document, with Imperial Russian wet stamp recto of each leaf and Imperial seal at foot (laid paper with Imperial Russian watermark); bifolium with family tree and manuscript in Russian across four pages, certifying that the Rynkiewicz family is entitled to use the Nalewka coat of arms, Imperial wet stamp dated 1819, with notarial signatures and seal of the Russian Foreign Ministry at foot (wove paper with Imperial Russian watermark); large folding sheet (570 x 440 mm), manuscript in Polish with spectacular watercolour illustration in the form of a schematic family tree showing four generations of the Rynkiewicz family and the Nalewka coat of arms, stating that this crest is entered in the Imperial heraldic register, again signed by the Marshall of Vilnius (unwatermarked wove paper); loose at rear is a later document dated 1863 updating the family's szlachta status, bifolium with manuscript in Russian across the centre pages, with a family tree showing the latest three generations of the Rynkiewicz line, notarial signatures beneath, Imperial Russian administrative wet stamp verso (wove paper with Imperial Russian watermark); all documents well preserved.
The Polish szlachta was a legally privileged noble class that had existed for centuries, first in the Kingdom of Poland and in the Grand Duchy of Lithuania, and later, after 1569, in the unified state known as the Polish–Lithuanian Commonwealth. After the Third Partition of the Polish–Lithuanian Commonwealth in 1795, the city of Vilnius (Polish: Wilno / Russian: Vilna) became part of the Russian Empire under the direct administration of the Lithuania-Vilnius Governorate, or Government of Vilnius, an Imperial Russian governorate which lasted under that name until 1840. Under tsarist rule, the families of the szlachta class living within the Russian Empire, including in cosmopolitan Vilnius, were allowed to maintain their social status and some of their entitlements such as the right to use a heraldic coat of arms, or herb, each one of which was associated with (and shared by) a number of different family names. However, belonging to the szlachta did not guarantee wealth or estates; moreover, it was a requirement imposed by the Imperial administration that each successive generation of a szlachta family was obliged to obtain official certification of their status as nobility by re-applying to the local authorities for the issue of a set of documents such as the ones contained in this Sammelband belonging to the Rynkiewicz family, produced in 1819. The documents certify the direct bloodline from Kasper Rynkiewicz, the progenitor who had been "ennobled" in the late 17th century, through Joachim Rynkiewicz (b.1770), a State Councillor who had received Russian decorations, down to his four children, Alexander, Joachim, Maria and Tatiana, and their cousins Ignas and Vincent. They also permit the family to use the Nalewka herb.

The Contemporary World, 1974 to the Present (Overview)
The Contemporary World, 1974 to the Present (Overview)
During the 1970s Americans became preoccupied with questions of economic well-being. Despite the fact that the United States still possessed the world's largest gross national product, a fear of decline overtook American culture. The public had lost confidence in New Deal policies that valued stability and equitable distribution of wealth over opportunities for growth and upward mobility. Concerns over prosperity became the guiding force in American politics.
In the 1970s Presidents Gerald Ford (1974–1977) and Jimmy Carter (1977–1981) responded by initiating a policy of deregulation, which was an effort to minimize government intervention in the market economy. While the initial efforts of deregulation were applied to government's relations with businesses, the logic of deregulation extended to government intervention in the economic lives of individual citizens. Presidents Ronald Reagan (1981–1989), George Bush (1989–1993), and Bill Clinton (1993—) all sought to diminish the influence of the federal government over the economy. The result has been a public policy designed to permit every business and every citizen to succeed or fail without government intervention.
A reassessment of the definition of monopoly has been key to this process of deregulation. Presidential administrations began to tolerate consolidations in industry. Congress abandoned the assumption that monopolies are only safe when they are regulated as a public utility. The federal courts became reluctant to interfere with market forces. The result has been a revolution in economic competition.
The elements involved in reconstructing the relationship between government and business came together in the antitrust prosecution of American Telephone and Telegraph (AT&T). Until the initiation of this case in 1974 the government had supported AT&T's monopoly over both local and long distance telephone service and encouraged its dominance over research and development of telephone technology. In exchange for high profits on long distance service, AT&T guaranteed affordable local service to every household and state of the art technology. In 1984 the federal courts reversed this arrangement and separated AT&T long distance from its local service providers (the "baby bells"). Since the AT&T decision other public service monopolies, most notably in the electrical generating industry, have been forced into open competition.
While breaking down public utility monopolies, the government became more tolerant of corporate consolidation. As a result corporate mergers in industries as varied as banking and oil refining have constructed business enterprises of a power and efficiency not seen in America since the nineteenth century. A small, regional bank in North Carolina (National Bank of North Carolina) was unchallenged in its transformation into the fifth largest bank in the United States (First Union). The unification of Mobil and Exxon resulted in a coordination of production that rivaled Standard Oil Corporation before Taft's (1909–1913) administration's antitrust prosecutions.
This acceptance of large scale corporations has been accompanied by a consistent policy of deregulation of industry. New Deal regulatory policies, which guaranteed reasonable corporate profits in exchange for an end to destructive competition, fell under attack and disappeared within a generation. The restrictions of the Glass-Steagall Act (1933), which were designed to promote banking stability and prevent the concentration of capital, were abandoned. Limits on interest rates, mergers, and establishment of new branches were eliminated. Successful American banks became better capitalized and could provide customers with a wider range of services; unsuccessful banks disappeared, with some spectacular collapses in the savings and loan industry. The airline industry, once protected by a Federal Aviation Administration's system that traded high passenger fares for strict controls on distributing profitable and unprofitable markets, was thrown open to competition with the Airline Deregulation Act of 1978. While air fares, fell new airlines emerged and the service to major airports expanded. Scheduling delays increased, airlines went bankrupt, and service to small cities diminished. This pattern of deregulation extended to agricultural production. Like the banking and airline industries, agriculture had benefited from the New Deal policy of guaranteeing profitability in exchange for limits on competition. The federal price support mechanisms of the Department of Agriculture limited the production of key commodities and prevented food processing industries from also owning farms. The Freedom to Farm Act of 1996 eliminated those restrictions in an effort to lower federal subsidies and promote greater efficiency on American farms.
Although the general pattern of government-business relations has been to dismantle regulation of business activity, a notable exception has emerged in the area of environmentalism. Since the establishment of the Environmental Protection Agency in 1970, the government has expanded its authority over standards of air and water pollution, introduced the concept of environmental clean up as a precondition of further industrial development, and curbed development in fragile ecological zones. The American public has accepted the idea that the general need for environmental safety outweighs corporate profit interests.
Deregulation and the reassessment of monopolies were designed to improve efficiency. As industries were forced into higher levels of competition, they had to become more productive. Improvements in productivity could be achieved by either introduction of new technology or a more effective use of labor. However, as corporations were adjusting to this new climate of regulation, they were suddenly hit by the disruptive impact of the embargo by the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC). During the 1970s OPEC raised the price of crude oil, more than doubling the average price of energy in the United States. Corporations were forced to spend more money on energy, leaving less for the purchase of new technology or wage packages that would raise worker morale. The economic pressures felt by businessmen were also experienced by workers. The increasing cost of gasoline and home heating fuel raised the cost of living at a time when wages stagnated. The net result was frustration for managers, workers, and consumers.
Not only did the OPEC price shocks damage the patterns of corporate investment, they illuminated important weaknesses in the American economy. Businessmen in Germany and Japan adopted computer and robotics technology in the 1960s and early 1970s. By the mid 1970s American factory managers realized they needed to catch up, but were reluctant to modernize when rising energy costs had depleted their profit margins. German and Japanese firms were poised to challenge American corporations in their own domestic markets.
By the end of the 1970s the American economy was mired in stagflation (simultaneous high unemployment and high inflation). Despite efforts to improve productivity through deregulation, American manufacturing continued to be eclipsed by competition from Japan and Germany. Public morale continued to falter as consumer costs remained high, wage rates stagnated, and long–term unemployment became common place. Once the epicenter of the American economy, the urban strip that began in Chicago and followed through Detroit, Cleveland, Pittsburgh, and to Philadelphia became known as "the rust belt."
Reaganomics emerged as the political solution to this problem. The process of deregulation begun under Presidents Ford and Carter was supplemented by the adoption of an aggressive anti–inflation policy and a decision to push money into the private sector through severe cuts in federal taxes. The Reagan and Bush administrations argued that deregulation, combined with lower taxes, would improve productivity. Clearly businesses would benefit from such a policy, but advocates of Reaganomics also argued that the benefits of improved productivity would "trickle down" to workers and consumers.
The Reagan and Bush policies coincided with important technological breakthroughs. Just as businesses were encouraged to restructure and invest in new processes, major innovations were made, including the development of desk–top computing and high speed digital transmission.
The adoption of new technology made American corporations more effective competitors in the world economy. Without federal curbs on the formation of monopolies, corporations could absorb rivals and divest unprofitable subsidiaries. These more powerful corporations sought to enlarge their operations in foreign markets. To support these corporate efforts, the United States government negotiated to eliminate tariff barriers. The most successful of these negotiations resulted in the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA), which was designed to stimulate commerce among the United States, Canada, and Mexico.
The experience of American corporations had important ramifications for the American labor force. During the 1970s American business increased its use of part–time and temporary workers. This trend was particularly profitable for employers; wage costs could be lowered, and, in addition, benefits such as health insurance and pension plans could be dropped. The increasing reliance on part–time and temporary workers continued into the Reagan-Bush years. This pattern held important implications for worker-management relations.
The traditional power of labor unions rested in manufacturing. However, poor productivity in the 1970s triggered layoffs and forced unions to focus on the equitable distribution of remaining jobs in unionized plants. Workers with little seniority were pushed out of union jobs, often into service sector work or self-employment. The adoption of new technologies during the Reagan-Bush era reduced the number of employees needed in manufacturing and continued this process of moving workers away from unionized shop floors.
The movement of workers out of a collective bargaining process weakened organized labor. The leadership of the large national organizations such as the American Federation of Labor-Congress of Industrial Organizations (AFL-CIO) called for prudence and cooperation with management for the protection of jobs. But increasing numbers of workers participated in spontaneous strikes to protest the adoption of new technologies or proposals to utilize part-time or contract workers. Because they did not have the full support of the national union leadership, these job actions had limited success. This weakness of labor authority in the workplace was magnified by changes in federal policy toward labor. The National Labor Relations Board, the federal agency that supervises management-worker relations, became more sympathetic to business concerns. During the Reagan presidency this skepticism toward labor interests solidified, as demonstrated by the federal intervention against striking air traffic controllers in 1981.
Without strong labor unions to defend worker interests, market forces became the predominant factor in setting wage rates and working conditions. Skills that were useful to the reorganization of American business earned high wages and generous benefits packages. Computer literacy was one of the most sought after qualities of workers. Those who clung to older standards of training risked being left behind as the economy was transformed.
An important divide emerged in the American standard of living. The distribution of American wealth concentrated in the hands of fewer people. According to the U.S. Bureau of the Census, in 1993 the richest 20 percent of the American population controlled 46.2 percent of the wealth (as compared to controlling 40.4 percent in 1967). This gain of wealth among rich families occurred at the expense of the bottom 60 percent of the American population. Higher salaries and the added benefits of annual bonuses and stock options raised incomes for those Americans in the upper 20 percent of the population. These higher rates of earning were augmented by substantial tax cuts in the 1980s and 1990s, which permitted the wealthy to retain a larger share of their income.
Families that were not wealthy began to compensate for their diminishing earning power by working more. These families became increasingly reliant on pay checks from both the husband and wife. An income study done by the U.S. Bureau of the Census demonstrated that families with two members in the paid labor force experienced a .76 percent improvement in their annual incomes between 1970 and 1993. On the other hand, families with only one income experienced a decline in their standard of living. Families in areas where jobs were more plentiful benefited most from this pattern. Geographical patterns of poverty were magnified because the distribution of jobs was not even. During the 1970s and 1980s most new jobs were created on the East and West Coasts. In addition, jobs were more likely to be created in suburban areas. Those living in the suburbs of Washington, D.C., or San Diego found a different set of opportunities than those living in Detroit or rural Wyoming.
The desire to lower taxes and free money for investment spurred a search for government spending cuts in the 1980s and 1990s. Welfare reform became a primary objective. Politicians first limited the dollar amounts granted to poor citizens, and then the length of time for eligibility. As federal support for welfare, public health programs, and housing assistance diminished, the poor witnessed a diminishing quality of life.
The push for efficiency and productivity has carried mixed consequences. National chain stores like Walmart have provided lower prices to consumers, but have driven out locally based businesses. The introduction of computers and robotics in manufacturing has saved companies from bankruptcy, but has reduced the number of blue–collar jobs. Extraordinary wealth coexists with grotesque poverty. The gross national product of the United States is still the envy of the world, but the landscape of the American economy has completely changed.

Predictable Identities: 20 – Self and Other Labeling
The last post set up the motivations and trade-offs of applying identity labels to yourself and to others. One can choose to oppose this ubiquitous labeling or indulge in it. With these two axes, we can sketch out the blogchain's first (though inevitable) 2×2:
The anti-label corner is exemplified by Paul Graham's famous exhortation to keep your identity small and Scott Alexander's reminder that categories are just (occasionally) useful abstractions. This corner sees other-labeling as a distraction from more pertinent questions of what someone actually does or believes; they see self-labeling as a sacrifice of clear thinking for tribal conformity. "Nerd" is a bad label for this corner, but being resistant to labels is its very nature.
Identity politickers sit at the top right corner. They reinforce the centrality of identity built by stacking labels (intersectionality) and demand that others be loyal to their identity markers, as in the quote about black faces and voices. Identitarians are not fans of rich white guys like Paul and Scott, but these two at least stick to their expected role of adversary. They have much more contempt for identity traitors like Candace Owens.
On the top left are people who gleefully toss labels at their outgroup to reinforce its homogeneity and overall wickedness. This usually serves to distance oneself from a label. On the bottom right, a person can attach a self-label to some conventional opinion to demonstrate how nicely predictable they are and to associate with a group.
These two corners are less of a committed stance and more of a tactical application of labels, but the same is true across the board – people change their willingness to label themselves and others depending on the situation. Labeling is a political tool; we should expect hypocrisy to be the norm rather than the exception.

Domestic Cozy: 9
After a couple of more theoretical entries to this blogchain, time for a roundup of recent phenomenology. I have five exhibits to introduce into evidence.
Exhibit A, these schizophrenic shoes from Patara Shoes (ht Kyle Chayka). They appear to combine the comfort-oriented domestic-cozy appeal (and price point) of Allbirds with a bit of premium mediocre eco-signaling and public narrative construction ("globalist multicultural nomad" living dangerously on the edge of appropriation outrage potential). I'm seeing more and more examples of premium mediocre intersecting with domestic cozy (weighted blankets are a good paradigmatic example), mostly in incoherent ways, though analyzing the incoherence is above my trend-logger pay grade and is probably best done by somebody in Brooklyn.
Exhibit B. There's a long article out in Buzzfeed News by Anne Helen Peterson that profiles a design firm called Pattern, and its first brand launch, Equal Parts, a cookware line. Take a moment to click through and check out the imagery and price positioning. Note the pastels, soft+rough textures, and sturdy, utilitarian designs. Note the comfy, cozy pictures of the team. This stuff is about the same price band as most things I tag premium mediocre, but the tradeoff seems to have shifted to delivering utilitarian value over signaling woke virtue. This stuff probably is more serviceable than it is instagrammable.[Read more…]

In this talk, Drew Austin revisits the thesis he developed in his old ribbonfarm post The Holey Plane, looking in particular at the Los Angeles built environment, and arguing that the Philip K. Dick definition of reality as "that which does not go away when you stop believing in it" does not actually hold as strongly as you might think for physical realities. Also riffing on my post The Design of Escaped Realities along the way.

Predictable Identities: 19 – Labels
After consistency, the most important feature of predictable identities is a good label, a pithy description that tells others (and yourself) what to expect of you.
Let's say that you are consistent in the sentiment that individuals should be free from government intervention, and thus oppose business regulation and gun control. What should your position be on abortion, immigration, or campaign finance? It's difficult to extrapolate a coherent position from your basic values, and often not worth the effort — your take on campaign finance likely has zero impact either on government legislation or on your own life. It's uncomfortable for your political stances to be so unpredictable.
On the other hand, you may simply adopt the label of "Republican" and acquire a set of stances on all political issues. The Republican position on anything is common knowledge, and anyone who knows that this label is part of your identity should not expect any surprises. Sticking to the label is often valued much more than consistency of actual opinion:
People strongly dislike labels that don't actually help prediction, as illustrated quite hilariously by the recent backlash to "sapiosexual". From what I can tell, here's what people who call themselves that mean by it:
- 10% are sexually aroused purely by intelligence, not appearance (yes, they exist).
- 20% like hot people but only if they're smart.
- 30% weigh personality more than physical attributes in romantic partners, relative to others.
- 40% use the term merely to signal their own intelligence.
- 1 person (me) insists that it should mean "attracted exclusively to Homo sapiens".
The end result is that people who haven't met a single self-identified sapiosexual write articles titled You're Not Sapiosexual, You're Just Annoying in their frustration at the unpredictability of the label.
Self-labeling is a powerful tool for shaping your behavior and the reactions of others, to be used with care.

Volkswagen had been a trusted brand for decades. But it is still recovering from its $14.7 billion settlement in 2016 for cheating on its clean air certifications for its diesel engines. The fallout from that settlement will be felt for years as the German manufacturer continues to pay plaintiffs.
The truth about Lemon law arbitration
California Lemon laws are designed to protect consumers from buying or leasing a car that does not work correctly or safely. It is enforceable throughout the warranty period as well as six months after the expiration date.
What manufacturer has the most vehicles recalled in 2018?
Recalls are a fact of life in the auto industry. While some manufacturers err on the side of caution, others seem to do everything possible to avoid making a public announcement regarding a design flaw or common problem. These flaws are why Lemon Laws were drafted on the state and federal level. The idea was to protect consumers from buying a car, truck, ATV, motorcycle, or leisure vehicle that is unfixable even after the recalls. Regardless of whether the vehicle was purchased new from a dealership, used from a car lot or the previous owner, the consumer has a right to get a vehicle whose quality matches its price.
Common scams that buyers need to be aware of
The internet makes it easy to research the quality and safety of cars. Moreover, buyers can also check to see if the dealer has bad online reviews. Despite all this information available, there are still scammers out there trying to sell a motor vehicle to an unsuspecting buyer fraudulently. Considering the cost of the average car these days, this can mean the loss of tens-of-thousands of dollars.

ClickFunnels vs. Every person Else.
Many people ask exactly how ClickFunnels compares with various other touchdown web page building contractors such as Leadpages, Unbounce, and Infusionsoft.
Essentially it's not actually a reasonable contrast due to the fact that each of these tools excels is one location or the various other.
The chart above gives a comprehensive evaluation – however I'll highlight some of the major contrasts below.
ClickFunnels vs Leadpages
Before ClickFunnels, Leadpages was the huge canine.
Leadpages is merely a lead capture software – absolutely nothing even more. You can develop touchdown web pages, lead boxes, accumulate leads … that's pretty much it. Additionally, the Leadpages themes are additionally restricted on personalization.
ClickFunnels is far more versatile – it's much easier to make use of as well as does so much more compared to create lead capture web pages.
Basically, Leadpages is actually just a touchdown page builder, while ClickFunnels is concentrated around building very integrated funnels.
ClickFunnels vs Infusionsoft
Infusionsoft is not a touchdown web page or sales page builder. It has several of that performance built it, but that's not what it's recognized for.
At it's core, Infusionsoft is a CRM system – one that allows you to manage your whole customer data source. ClickFunnels has this ability with Actionetics, but it's not virtually as advanced as Infusionsoft.
Infusionsoft is also very costly and forces every brand-new customer to pay $2000 for a required kickstart training bundle simply to find out how to use the intricate system (which is notoriously difficult to use).
ClickFunnels Associate Program
There are two major paths individuals drop as ClickFunnels individuals.
Those that decide to make use of the tool for their business – in hopes of someday accomplish both Comma Club (over $1M in earnings).
And also those that are interested in gaining passive revenue as a ClickFunnels Affiliate and also winning the Dream Auto Contest (where they pay $500/$1000 towards your desire auto if you get to 100/200 active regular monthly signups, specifically).
With a massive 40% month-to-month recurring compensation, ClickFunnels conveniently has one of the best associate programs of any system around.
That's right – you make money a continuous 40% commission on every associate signup you make through the ClickFunnels Associate Program. However, just what does that really relate to?
The standard plan is a $97/month investment and also the Etison Suite plan is a $297/month financial investment. therefore you make $38.80 each basic plan and $118.80 per Etison Collection strategy … every single month!
Generally, every 100 signups will bring in $4000/month in associate compensations (more or less depending upon the amount of Etison Plan users remain in there).

If you are laying laminate flooring, it is important to correctly prepare the subfloor. This guide will show you which type of underlay is most suitable for your project.
Insert cork expansion strips in all perimeter gaps before finishing the edge of the room with skirting or beading to help control the boards' natural movement (see pack for instructions).
Laying real wood flooring is very similar to putting down laminate. You'll need spacers and expansion strips to fit real wood flooring - as you're creating a floating floor you have to leave room for expansion.
Solid wood will require a little more expertise, but with care anyone can do it! For solid wood, you'll want to use tension straps, as you'll be pulling together the glue between each slat.

Helpful hints...
To get a smooth edge around your radiator pipe, drill a hole 16mm bigger in diameter than the pipe itself. This will allow for expansion. Radiator pipe rosettes round the fitting off nicely.
When finishing off your flooring into a doorway, place a piece of laminate flat next to the architrave. This gives you a guide for where the flooring will come up to. Then you can saw just the right amount off the bottom of your architrave, and place the laminate firmly and snugly underneath. The video here shows you how to do this.
To finish off the laminate flooring altogether, use a threshold strip to create a neat connection between the other flooring.
Finally, you can remove the spacers and replace with cork expansion strips. These allow the flooring to expand and contract. After placing the cork expansion strips around the room, fix scotia to skirting boards to create a neat finish.
Here are some useful tips for the maintenance and care of laminate flooring.

Online Payment Gateway Integration for Your WebsiteSeptember 7th, 2016 by Admin Backup1 Comments
If you have a website where you want to sell some products or services, you need some sort of payment gateway to receive payments from your customers. It is all too good to have decided what you want to sell and at what price. But have you paused for a moment and thought about how you are going to charge your customers for products and services that you intend to provide them? Many customers desire to make a payment using their credit or debit cards whereas there is no dearth of individuals who like to pay through net banking services. Of course there are some who still prefer to make payment using checks. To be able to receive money in your account from all these customers, you need to open a merchant account integrated with a payment gateway.
You need to contact a company that knows how to integrate a world class payment gateway processor on your website and charges a small fee for processing the financial transactions that take place on the website. This company should have certification from major online payment gateways as well as merchant accounts. The system of paying for a product or service online is similar to how a merchant accepts payment from a customer using his credit card in a real world store. Instead of swiping through a machine, the verification of the authenticity of customer's card is carried out by the payment gateway that is integrated on the website.
To have a payment gateway, you need to open a merchant account. It is similar to a bank account and it is opened with the payment gateway processing company. Some companies ask for monthly and transaction fees while there are also companies that charge only a minute transaction fee for carrying out the financial transaction on the website of the merchant.
Before hiring a company for payment gateway integration, make sure that it is affordable and provides a wide range of payment options. Also, it should be a highly secured payment gateway system that inspires confidence in the minds of the customers as they look for their safety and security before making a payment. Finally,, make sure that the payment gateway allows you to accept payment in multiple international currencies. This is necessary if you do not want to turn down payment from a customer simply because he has a different currency.

As you read this, somewhere in Africa a giraffe is dying from a trophy hunter's bullet. It's shocking that so many of these magnificent creatures are being slaughtered for senseless "luxury" animal products.
Our undercover reporting has revealed horrific trading in giraffe 'parts', readily sold in the USA. Their numbers are collapsing because of habitat loss and an unthinkable desire for exotic animal products, including giraffe-bone knife handles, giraffe-skin jackets, boots, cushions and rugs.
Once bountiful across Africa's plains some populations now number only in the hundreds, with fewer than 100,000 in total ranging in the wild.
Moved by the plummeting numbers of these magnificent creatures, the governments of Chad, Senegal, Niger, Mali, Kenya and the Central African Republic are desperate to protect these animals from trade to help stop the senseless slaughter. United in their quest to save the giraffe, these countries are proposing protections from trade at an important upcoming UN meeting. HSI stands with them.
Your support in the past has helped us win protection for elephants, rhinos, gorillas, sharks and many others at this UN conference.

At least a 102 people are now known to have died in a suicide attack in Pakistan's volatile border region close to Afghanistan. More than a 100 were also wounded in yesterday's blast, the deadliest assault in Pakistan this year. The latest figures nearly double the previously announced death toll.
Eyewitnesses, say the bomber rode into the village on a motorbike, as tribal elders gathered near a senior government official's office.
Located in the north-western Mohmand region, the suspected retaliatory attack comes as Pakistani security forces step up their campaign against Taliban and al-Queda insurgents in the area.
The large explosion hit several shops and TV footage showed victims being pulled from the rubble. The latest bombing comes a week after 42 people were killed in a strike in Pakistan's most important Sufi Shrine in the eastern city of Lahore.

Black Canyon Ranch
This is a 300 acre family ranch under renovation. Future plans include a retreat destination for large families, corporate and special events requiring lodging. A wellness retreat. The property has expansive views; old, mature oak trees; massive wild blackberry brambles, an olive grove planned; roaming cattle and wildlife (deer, foxes, wild turkeys...etc.) We need an image reminiscent of a "ranch brand" (as in the iron branding tool) but something that can be incorporated into a more sophisticated brand and logo material. We'd like to incorporate the image of a bull.
black, gray, metallic (brass/bronze) olive green, but open to suggestions
We're looking for a stylized logo that doesn't look predictable. This
is an amazing piece of property and the renovation is massive and
impressive. The logo needs to reflect the weight of the land.
We need an image reminiscent of a "ranch brand" (as in the iron
branding tool) but something that can be incorporated into a more
sophisticated brand and logo material. The ranch "brand" should
incorporate either "BC" or "BC Ranch". If you'd like to include an
image, then consider the image of a bull. Another viable image is that
of a native California oak. There are pictures provided if you are
unfamiliar with the integrity of that variety of oak. You do not have
to include an image, it's just an option. Also included within this
brief is a link to a website used when the property was for sale. It
will give you a good idea of the landscape and I highly recommend that
you view those images.
In evaluating entries, we consider first the strength of the "BC"
because it will need to stand alone in certain applications. It will
be carved in stone in interior and exterior locations in different
structures on the property...also carved or branded into wood. It will
also be used at the entrance to the ranch. In print materials or
electronic images we will want more detail...the full name of the
ranch and then perhaps a defining image.
We try to communicate as much information as we can, to evaluate all
entries and provide feedback and also to answer any questions you may
Good luck and thank you to all those that submit entries.

2 'turnaround' stocks to watch in May
Buying stocks which have recorded declining share prices can be a sound strategy. After all, it means there may be a wider margin of safety and future returns could therefore be significantly higher. Clearly, the reasons for any share price falls must be identified and overcome. However, for investors seeking to generate index-beating returns in the long run, buying bargain stocks can be a shrewd strategy.
Recovery potential
Since the start of the year, shares in Petra Diamonds (LSE: PDL) have slumped by 17%. While disappointing, the company's long-term share price outlook remains relatively positive. Evidence of this was seen on Monday when it released a production update for the third quarter of the year. Petra Diamonds was able to make further progress with its expansion programmes, with higher run of mine (ROM) grades achieved during the period.
While production during the quarter was flat, it was able to deliver a 15% increase in production for the first nine months of the year. This helped to push sales 27% higher, with improved rough diamond prices also boosting the company's top line. Furthermore, underground expansion programmes remained in line with expectations. And with cash at bank rising to $66.2m from $39m in March 2016, the long-term outlook for the business appears to be positive.
Looking ahead, Petra Diamonds is forecast to record a rise in its bottom line of 32% this year, followed by further growth of 74% next year. This puts it on a price-to-earnings growth (PEG) ratio of just 0.1, which indicates that a recovery could be on the cards. The company's financial performance may be volatile, but on a risk/reward basis its now lower share price suggests a buying opportunity.
Strategy progress
Also reporting on Monday was energy storage technology company RedT Energy (LSE: RED). Although its financial performance in 2016 was in line with management expectations, its share price has fallen by around 41% in the last six months.
The company's transformation during 2016 saw it move from being a technology development company to delivering a manufactured, commodity product. It is now ready to move into a commercialisation phase and since it has no debt and a cash balance of €17.2m, it appears to have the funding required to move ahead with its growth strategy.
Clearly, there is some way to go until the business is profitable. In the current year and next it is forecast to record losses. However, it has proven technology which could become increasingly popular in future years.
Furthermore, RedT Energy has an active customer pipeline of €246m and a clear strategy through which to take its product to market. Therefore, while at the riskier end of the investment spectrum, the stock could be of interest to less risk averse investors seeking a long-term opportunity to outperform the wider market.
The best growth opportunity?
Despite this, there's another stock that could have a more positive impact on your portfolio. In fact it's been named as A Top Growth Share From The Motley Fool.
The company in question could offer index-beating returns in 2017 and beyond. It could boost your returns during an uncertain period for the wider market.
