2018 Ferrari Challenge: The Return
It seemed like the day would never come, but our racing season finally began last weekend at the first race at the newly badged WeatherTech Raceway Laguna Seca. After the last few years of uncertainty about the track's future, it was awesome to see signs of the changes to come at our favorite place in the world. And what better way to kick things off than watching scores of Ferraris battling their way around the 2.23 mile track...we note that the very first car to win at Laguna Seca was Ferrari, driven by Pete Lovely in 1957. Spirits were high, and it was great to check in with track staff, shod in their fresh new WeatherTech gear, after the long off season.
The Ferrari Challenge is the longest-running single-marque racing series, and it's featured in three different regions around the world - North America, Europe and Asia Pacific. The events also include a paddock of road going Ferraris (for participants etc.) for an additional motivation to put and keep the event on our calendar.
The series was established in 1993 and races on tracks in FiA approved events around the world. Participants are Ferrari dealers or authorized race shops with three classes racing through a racing weekend.
There are also three categories for each race: Trofeo Pirelli, Trofeo Pirelli Am and Coppa Shell, which includes further classes like the Gentlemen Cup, for drivers over 55, and the Ladies Cup for women (available in Europe and Asia). This seemingly all inclusive format provides all who can foot the bill for participation, with an opportunity to race among those with their relative skill level, and also with some of the best sportscar talent on the planet. Competitors from each series are brought together at the annual World Finals (Finali Mondiali) event.
The foundation of the series is Ferrari's 488 Challenge, the first turbo powered car to be raced in the challenge. The 488 Challenge is based on the 488 GTB road car, with 670HP, just over the road car's 660HP. That alone doesn't seem like much, but the Challenge has other tricks. Optimized engine mapping and shorter gear ratios provide power off the line while body work inspired by the the 2016 FIA World Endurance Championship-winning 488 GTE provides better downforce and stability. It's eight seconds faster around the Fiorano test circuit than the 488GTB road car. That's all fine and good...he 488 is no slouch and continues to be a usable platform for the evolution of the model...but all the power and performance in the world isn't a guarantee of victory. On that note, we spotted veteran sportscar racers Stefan Johansson and Gunnar Jeanette in the Scuderia Corse garages lending their expertise to help their stable of drivers lower their lap times. Those two gentlemen have probably forgotten more than many of us will ever know about the racing arts.
The series also fields of semi-pros and highly skilled amateur racers in previous generation 458 Challenge cars. (And speaking of previous generations, the picture below is a shot of a Ferrari Challenge paddock from the mid 1990s. Notice the 355 Challenges on the right, the 348 challenge on the left, the F40 and the F50 in the way way back)
The weekend started with a real iron-man performance. Cooper MacNeil flew in on Saturday from Ohio arriving just an hour and 20 minutes before the pre-grid. Driving for Scuderia Corsa-Ferrari Beverly Hills MacNeil would claim victory in the first week of the weekend. After the race he flew back to Ohio to race in the IMSA WeatherTech Championship on Sunday in the Scuderia Corsa Ferrari 488 GT3.
The race winners on Sunday were Peter Ludwig (Trofeo Pirelli), John Boyd (Trofeo Pirelli AM), Thomas Tippl (Coppa Shell), John Megrue (Coppa Shell AM), and Martin Burroues (458 Challenge).
The weekend presented an added bonus. Actor Michael Fassbender (Shame, Prometheus, X-Men: First Class, Steve Jobs), returned in his second season with the Ferrari Challenge. He arrived this season on a hot streak with one Coppa Shell win and three podium finishes from the first two events in Daytona and Austin. In 2013 he narrated the Formula 1 documentary "1" (Trailer). It was a return to where he started as he made his debut in the Ferrari Challenge at Laguna Seca in 2017.
But it wasn't all chianti pasta and roses...
The only downer for us was the fact that the event didn't feature the array of show, display and corral cars that are usually part of a Ferrari Challenge event. Granted we only attended the races on Saturday, we were really bummed that we didn't see anything older than a 308 and the vast majority of the F-cars in attendance were less than 10 years old. (Is there a carbuerator in the house?...um no) We've come to expect their presence over the years, but alas none were anywhere to be seen. On the other hand, there were at least 2 F12tdfs in the paddock, and a stunning new 812 Superfast on display with other current models from the factory. They helped...a little...
The newly branded WeatherTech Laguna Seca Raceway provided a warm-up to the racing season in the hills of Monterey. The future of 2018 at the track looks good as beginning of summer will see a line-up of events that include the MOTUL FIM Superbike World Championship GEICO Motorcycle U.S. Round featuring MotoAmerica Battle of Monterey, June 22-24; Monterey Pre-Reunion, August 18-19; Rolex Monterey Motorsports Reunion, August 23-26; Porsche Rennsport Reunion VI, Sept. 27-30; and California 8 Hours presented by Pirelli World Challenge, Oct. 25-27.

As the cool fall weather starts to creep in, there will be quite a few sales heating up this month. October brings several opportunities for shoppers to save on all of fall's essentials. From outdoor furniture and denim to kitchen appliances and all of the scariest gear for Halloween, shoppers shouldn't hesitate to take advantage of some great savings on items they are sure to use this month.
This month is prime time for shoppers to stock up on some autumn items and potentially get ahead of some holiday shopping. Shoppers can use this month to update their fall wardrobe, get decked out in their favorite costumes, as well as get their homes and kitchens holiday guest-ready – while maybe checking off a few names from their holiday shopping list.
Outdoor Furniture
Did the summer fly by without you purchasing outdoor accessories? Shoppers who waited are in luck, as October is a great time to shop for items like patio furniture and decor. With the outdoor season wrapping up, consumers can find the best prices now before it all clears out before the holidays.
- Wayfair: Up to 65% Off Outdoor Furniture Covers and Up to 65% Off Outdoor Dining Sets + Free Shipping on Orders Over $49. Get extra discounts using Wayfair gift cards.
- Overstock: Up to 55% off Select Outdoor Essentials
Theme Parks
Roller coaster rides may evoke the feeling of summer, but many theme parks are open year-round or close only during the cold winter months. The weather in October is still perfect for enjoying outdoor rides, and it happens to be a lull period for most theme parks. Look for big savings and big fun!
- Universal: 2nd Day Only $9
- Six Flags: Up to 60% Off Season Membership Price + Free 3 Months Membership When You Sign Up + Free Gifts
Because October kicks off the fall season, it's a great time to take advantage of deals on autumn staples like denim. This wardrobe essential has already been flying off the shelves for back-to-school shoppers, but there's more where that came from. As the cool weather approaches, retailers are starting to discount them and to make room for all of the fall and winter fashions to come before the holidays.
Halloween Costumes, Candy and Decor
When October comes to mind, so does the sugar-fueled madness of Halloween. Between candy for trick-or-treaters and costumes for the family – including those for four-legged friends – the costs can really add up. Shoppers will see the deepest discounts on costumes and candy in the week leading up to Halloween. Retailers want all their inventory gone before the holiday passes — after all, what good is orange-and-black candy at Christmas? While shoppers may not have the best selection that week, they can still snag festive costumes and décor with a discount.
- Spirit Halloween: 25% Off Any Single Item
- HalloweenCostumes.com: Up to 40% Off Select Pet Costumes + Free Shipping on Orders $65 Or More
- Sears: Gift card deals
Holiday gatherings are right around the corner, which makes October a great time to get your home ready for guests. Sales on big appliances started in September, but they continue into this month, ensuring that everyone can be a host with the most. Retailers are slashing prices now to make room for inventory on Black Friday and beyond. Shoppers prepping for a large family meal should make sure the kitchen is ready for action and take advantage of sales on items like Keurig coffee makers, microwaves and other small kitchen appliances as well.
- Best Buy: 20% Off One Select Regular-Priced Item and Up to 30% off Select Small Appliances
- Macy's: Up to 50% Off Select Home Sale

At least three Australians are being diagnosed with oral cancer every day
Why is it important to get an oral cancer check?
Like any other form of cancer, the need for regular screenings is important to ensure more success in early detection and treatment. Oral cancer is readily diagnosed but it is often discovered late in its development generally when it has spread to another location such as the lymph nodes of the neck.
Unlike other screening tests such as mammograms, pap tests and prostate exams, an oral cancer check is much less evasive.
Do I need to get checked for oral cancer?
A regular screening as part of your dental exam is important however you may notice the warning signs earlier.
Some early signs of oral cancer can include:
- Any mouth sore or lesion that does not heal within two weeks
- Lumps or thickened areas in the cheek
- Discoloured (red or white) patches in the mouth
- Difficulty with chewing, swallowing or moving the tongue
- Numbness in your tongue or mouth
- Chronic hoarseness, sore throat or a feeling that something is caught in your throat
- Swelling of the jaw; denture wearers might notice that the dentures don't fit or become uncomfortable
If you are experiencing any of the following symptoms please contact the team at Bite Dental on (07) 3221 5399.
How does Bite Dental carry out an oral cancer check?
Dentists have a unique advantage when carrying out oral cancer screenings as they are used to prodding around people's mouths. While the procedure is much less evasive than other health checks, it still requires a hands-on approach.
So you know what to expect, here are the typical steps used in an oral cancer screening:
- You will have to remove any dentures or partials you are wearing.
- Your screener will then visually check your face, neck, lips and mouth for any obvious abnormalities. These can be subtle signals such as slurred speech or asymmetry in your mouth movements.
- The screener will feel for any lumps in your neck and the underside of your jaw.
- Then, they will check your lips and cheek areas.
- You'll have to stick out your tongue to check for any discolouration, swelling or sores.
- The next step might feel a bit odd. Your screener will pull your tongue out and around to have a closer look at the base, sides and underneath.
- They will check the roof and floor of your mouth as well as the back of your throat.
- Finally, the screener will check for any lumps in the floor of your mouth.
While this may seem like a lot of poking and prodding, this screening only takes two minutes or less to carry out.
What if they notice some lumps?
If they do notice any kind of abnormalities, a biopsy will likely be recommended. This involves removing a small piece of the suspicious tissue of your mouth and sending it to a laboratory for identification.
How can I minimise the risk of oral cancer?
- Don't smoke
- Drink alcohol in moderation
- Protect your skin
- Eat nutritious, wholesome food
- Look after your teeth
- Know the warning signs
- Do you need the Human Papilloma Virus (HPV) vaccination?
Is it time for a dental check-up?
If you are due for a dental check-up or wish to enquire about an oral cancer check, get in touch with our team at Bite Dental on (07) 3221 5399 to make your appointment.

At the end of last week, Juan Mónaco and Richard Gasquet were still tied in the Race, having both won the tournament in which they were entered. Both had a chance to inch a little higher with the first-round defeat of Nicolás Almagro. It seemed a pretty easy task for Gasquet, who was facing World n° 165 Zhang Ze in the second round, and a very tough one for Mónaco, opposite Marcos Baghdatis.
Finally, the end result was the same: both lost, although one upset is much more shocking than the other.
In Tokyo, Mónaco tried and fought, but Baghdatis is known for being a tricky and difficult player when he's on. The Cypriot played a great match and escaped with the upset, 7-5 1-6 6-3, and Pico was the first to acknowledge it:
The Asian tour doesn't end here, I'll keep working hard 2 do my best in Shanghai. Marcos played better than me today, congratulations to him
— Juan Monaco (@picomonaco) October 4, 2012
In Beijing, the logical prediction would have been an easy win for Richard Gasquet. However, tennis is rarely the most predictable sport, especially when Richard Gasquet is one of the protagonists. The Frenchman surprisingly lost the first set, 4-6, but went to take the second set and was up a break in the third when Zhang Ze broke back, and broke once more as Gasquet was serving to stay in the match, thus reaching his first ATP quarter-finals, 6-4 3-6 6-4. A wonderful result for the 22-year-old Chinese.
Both Mónaco and Gasquet had a chance to distance himself from the other, and from Nicolás Almagro, in the Race, In the end, with about a half hour difference, both bit the dust and will start over next week, in the Shanghai Masters 1000, where Mónaco will have a slight advantage: he will only start in the second round, being bumped to seventh seed due to the pull-outs of Rafael Nadal (knee), David Ferrer (stomach virus), and Juan Martín del Potro (left wrist).
Other results (Tokyo)
- [2] Tomas Berdych d. Alejandro Falla, 6-3 7-5. This was Berdych's 50th win of the season
- [3] Janko Tipsarevic d. Marco Chiudinelli, 6-4 6-2
- [5] Milos Raonic d. Viktor Troicki, 3-0 ret.
- [8] Kei Nishikori d. Tommy Robredo, 5-7 6-1 6-0
- Dmitry Tursunov d. Tatsuma Ito, 7-5 6-3
Other results (Beijing)
- Mikhail Youzhny d. Kevin Anderson, 6-3 6-3
- Sam Querrey d. Andreas Seppi, 6-1 6-4
- Feliciano López d. Yen-Hsun Lu, 6-3 7-6(7)
It's impossible not to mention the first-round doubles upset of Carlos Berlocq and Denis Istomin, who edged the n° 2 team in the world, Max Mirnyi and Daniel Nestor, 1-6 6-3 12-10. Berlocq and Istomin will face Mahesh Bhupathi and Rohan Bopanna in the quarter-finals.
The quarter-finals are set
The second round is now completed in both tournaments and the quarter-final match-ups are now set.
Rakuten Open
- [1] Andy Murray vs [7] Stanislas Wawrinka
- [3] Janko Tipsarevic vs [5] Milos Raonic

- [3] Jo-Wilfried Tsonga vs Mikhail Youzhny
Matches will start at 0:30 ET.

TRIBULEX 750 : Is This Testosterone Booster Works?
TRIBULEX 750 – Product Features, Cost, Dosage, Ingredients, Pros And Cons.
Tribulex 750 is an all-natural testosterone booster. It improves the overall sexual performance of the consumer. It also helps in building up lean muscles, stamina and enhances the libido. Other benefits claimed by the manufacturer include the following: –
- Increases protein synthesis.
- It is an effective diuretic.
- It improves positive nitrogen balance.
- It elevates luteinizing hormone.
Cost of TRIBULEX 750
The various online stores retail a bottle of the supplement at a regular price of $22.49. Discounts can be availed depending on the retailer. The price is fixed therefore difficult for the retailers to manipulate the cost. Comparing with the amounts of other supplements such as Testogen, Tribulex 750 is way much cheaper. All these promote cost-effectiveness of the supplement.
Ingredients used in TRIBULEX 750
- Tribulus Terrestris
It is the only ingredient listed on the manufacturer's websites. It is an annual plant in the caltrop family. It is an invasive species in North America. It is also referred to as goat's herd, bindii, bhakhdi, bullhead, burra, devil's thorn, puncture vine etc. It has a wide range of use in the field of medicine. For instance, in the Indian medicine, the plant was used to treat urinary infections, urolithiasis, dysmenorrhea, and edema. It is used as an ingredient in many supplements to stimulate testosterone hormone. It also improves the physical characteristics of the consumer. Due to the named roles of the ingredient, many manufacturers of testosterone supplements are using it as one of their ingredients.
Research on Tribulus Terrestris
To elicit the effect of Tribulus Terrestris on blood sugar, a study was done on 98 women with type 2 diabetes. 1000mg of the extract was used. At the end of three months, in the women who were taking the supplement, there were reduced blood sugar and cholesterol levels. Such observations were not present in women who just received a placebo.
Another research was done to illustrate the effect of the supplement containing the extract on testosterone levels in humans. Women and men aged between 14-60 were subjected to 12 major studies which lasted from 2-90 days. Healthy people and those experiencing sexual problems were the participants. It was found that the supplement did not increase the testosterone levels.
However, other studies done in animals show that the supplement containing the extract increases the levels of testosterone, an observation not seen in humans.
Several research have been done to illustrate effects of Tribulus Terrestris on libido. In one study, men experiencing reduced sex drives consumed 750-1500mg of Tribulus Terrestris per day. They did so for two months. At the end of the study, it was that their sexual desires had increased by 79%.
Another study was done on women with low libidos. 500-1500mg was consumed for 90 days. At the end of the study, it was noted that 67% of women experienced an increased sexual desire.
In men with erectile dysfunctions, a dose of 1500 of Tribulus Terrestris was consumed. At the end of the study, a significant improvement in erection was noted.
A study was also done to elicit the effects of the extract on body composition or exercise performance. Elite rugby players took the supplement containing the extract during the five weeks of weightlifting. At the end of the study, it was noted that there was no improvement in body composition or strength.

Does Tribulex 750 boost testosterone levels?
Tribulex 750 is a testosterone supplement available in the market. The manufacturer associates its use with a lot of benefits. It is the price is fixed all around therefore difficult to manipulate. It also retails at a very low cost compared to other supplements. Despite all these, very few information regarding the supplement has been given on the manufacturer's website. For instance, only one ingredient used to manufacture the supplement is mentioned and discussed. A testosterone supplement should have a combination of many ingredients for it to be more potent. It is due to this reason that Tribulex 750 can be disputed as an effective testosterone booster. The other reason that makes one doubt the supplement is the fact that, it has not been evaluated and approved by Food and Drug Administration. It is therefore important for the consumer to consider the above before purchasing the above product. There exist other testosterone boosters with adequate information to the consumers. They are Testogen and Prime male. They provide a lot of benefits to the user. They have few side effects since they are manufactured from natural ingredients.

SoetKaroo \\ Brand Overhaul
Located in the picturesque Karoo hamlet of Prince Albert is a little wine farm called SoetKaroo. It's where husband and wife team Herman and Susan Perold make dessert wine from a rare variety of red Hanepoot grapes – it's what gives the wine a distinct rosy-pink colour and sets it apart from myriad larger volume competitors.
Their visual identity and online presence was found as bland as their wine is beautiful, and they are neglecting the one feature that sets them apart: their story.
We created a brand identity with a quaint and quirky personality that celebrates Herman and Susan's Afrikaans heritage as well as the artisanal nature of their products.
The new identity reminds people that dessert wine is a drink for a special occasion in its own right, and worthy of being a special gift for loved ones. After all, SoetKaroo is meant to be a collector's item. Something you want to share and keep; a wine experience that's bitter sweet.

text: Flour and Grape HotJointFebruary 20, 2018Restaurant0 Comments Shutting a much-loved joint to open a different concept is a risk, but for Flour and Grape looks like a happy occasion OK, pasta is not a new concept – in Britain we've had it for – ooo – a couple of decades or so and it's proved quite popular. But why it has taken quite so long for London restaurants, with all their high-concept thinking, to come up with pasta-specialist joints I don't know. Padella, Pastiao, and now Flour and Grape, have chopped all the extra-curriculars out of trad trattoria menus, spruced up the pasta offering, stuck in a takeaway option and, Roberto's your uncle, it's a winner. Or rather, we shall see in a couple of years time whether these are still standing and joined by a host of copycats, or whether they will have innovated in another direction. For now, the much-loved Antico on Bermondsey Street, a kind of upmarket neighbourhood dining joint, closed, only to reopen, like a phoenix rising from the flames, as Flour and Grape. With a new look (high stools, counter-eating, aforementioned takeaway option), it is indeed still a neighbourhood joint ut with a bit more casualness, a bit more of a clear raisin d'etre and a lower price point. The pasta, of course, has to sing at the heart of this concept and the gigli with fennel sausage, the pappardelle with beef short-rib, and the tortellini with roasted pork shoulder jump out and grab your cheeks like an overzealous Italian grandparent. What's really exciting – maybe just for restaurant nerds – is the generally low level of the prices. This signals a real shift from the almost fine-diningy Antico and is a bold, positive and welcome move, indicating that although the febrile London real estate/hospitality markets are constantly shifting, so is the ambition and approach of our restaurateurs. Bermondsey has spent 20 years gentrifying and with Casse Croute, Village East, Jose et al moving in things have hotted up, so it's a great place to visit and live (Druid Street and Maltby Street markets too!), it's a great place to go on a foodie adventure. flourandgrape.com

When your child is a baby, you feed him (her). You watch him grow. You watch him learn to crawl, stand and walk. Soon, he can run …
When you are a newly born-again baby belonging to the One who redeemed you, you are like a baby too. Our Father God feeds us age-appropriate food (through His Word and His Spirit, and His servants on earth). He watches over us. He does not want us to remain as babies in Christ.
Our Father God does not spoon-feed us forever. He does not force-feed us either. We are allowed to choose what and when we want to eat.
Are you crawling, standing or walking now? Are you already running? How fast are you running? Are you running too fast? Do you have a 'sprained ankle'?
We are His beloved children. We are at different stages of growth. He knows where we are. And He loves us. John 3:3
A conversation
It is time you do your own devotions … Spend time alone with God. Talk to Him one-on-one. It's intimate talk. Let Him talk back to you. Write it down. Take notes. Write down what He says … Write down what you see (visions) … Draw if you cannot find words to describe. John wrote down what he saw using words that help us visualize the Throne of God (Revelation 4:1-6a).
When you are with your closest friend, what do you talk about? Do you talk all the time? When you pour out your thoughts, feelings, opinion … does your closest friend listen attentively? When you are done talking, would you want to hear what He has to say?
When you are talking to someone, have you ever thought, "I just need you to listen; I know what I'm doing; I don't need your advice; you think I'm still a three-year old…?"
What do you talk frequently about? Do you talk more about situations or about people? Who are the people you talk about?
God loves people. He died for them – all of them, regardless of who they are, what they have done, what they are doing…
The key to salvation is repentance.
Perhaps, you are talking to Him about your son (daughter). Would you not want to hear what He has to say about him (her)? Would you not want to know His plan for him (her)?
Very often, we don't hear …
Today, God says, "Be still, and know that I am God" Psalm 46:10
To me, He says, "I make known the end from the beginning, from ancient times, what is still to come. I say: My purpose will stand, and I will do all that I please." Isaiah 46:10
What He says is good enough for me. In peace I will lie down and sleep, for He alone, my Father God, keeps me and my family safe. Psalm 4:8

Strange rituals: Some of the corpses found in the necropolis attached to what is thought to be Europe's oldest town were sliced in half and buried from the pelvis up
Residents of what is thought to be Europe's oldest town cut their dead in half and buried them from the pelvis up, according to archaeologists.
The newly discovered ancient settlement, thought to date back to 4700BC, is near the Bulgarian town of Provadia, about 25 miles from the country's Black Sea coast.
Archaeology professor Vassil Nikolov led the dig which focused on the town itself and its necropolis, where the strange and complex burial rituals were discovered.
Ancient: Researchers believe the town, located 25 miles from Bulgaria's Black Sea coast, is Europe's oldest urban settlement and was home to between 300 to 350 people
© CNN. A whole corpse: Researchers have as yet advanced no theories as to why some corpses were mutilated before burial and others were interred in their entirety
'Now we can say that the Provadia salt pans location is the oldest town in Europe, [dating from] roughly 4700 to 4200BC,' he told CNN.
There is as yet no clue as to why some corpses have been sliced in half and buried from the pelvis up, but researchers found evidence to show some residents of the salt-producing area were wealthy people.
Professor Nikolov told the Sofia Globe the town's 300 to 350 residents lived in two-storey homes and earned their living mining the surrounding area for salt, which was as important to the ancient world as oil is today.
'The salt water was evaporated by different techniques in ceramic bowls,' Professor Nikolov told CNN. 'Salt produced was used as money because salt was essential for both humans and animals.'
© CNN. Wealthy: The town's residents lived in two-storey homes and mined the surrounding area for salt, an important resource in ancient times
© CNN. Security: To protect their wealth, their town was surrounded by stone walls three metres high and a phenomenal two metres thick
The nearby town of Provadia remains an important salt centre to this day, with much foreign investment in the area devoted to extracting the stuff.
But in ancient times Provadia-Solnitsata would have needed little in the way of outside money since, as the only place in the Balkans where salt was produced at the time, it was the 'mint' of the region.
To protect their wealth, their town was surrounded by stone walls three metres high and a phenomenal two metres thick, which researchers believe are the earliest and most massive fortifications of Europe's pre-history.

© CNN. Skeletons: British, Japanese and German scientists have so far confirmed the Bulgarian team's findings, which were made during a two-month dig over the summer
© Unknown. This map shows the town's location near Provadia, just 25 miles inland from the major coastal city of Provadia
Other findings suggested that even 7,000 years ago the residents of the town had already developed a class system.
Archaeologist Margarita Lyuncheva, a member of Professor Nikolov's team, told CNN that finds of spiral copper needles for hairdressing in some graves showed 'there are two grades of people, [one] probably with higher social status'.
She added: 'We think that women had a sort of bun-shaped hairstyle.'
British, Japanese and German scientists have so far confirmed the Bulgarian team's findings, which were made during a two-month dig over the summer.

Today we were out for lunch and accompanied by an adorable five year old my friend was babysitting. She appeared new to being in the company of a small person like herself in a wheelchair. At first she was a little disconcerted by his coughing which he does often as dealing with secretions is an ongoing battle. She accepted my reassurances that all was well. For most of the lunch the little girl ate and played with her food and coloured with the provided book and crayons. As we were readying to go she puts the colouring book in front of H, tries to offer him the crayon and speaking softly she was telling him that he could have a turn. When it was obvious to her that H was not going to take the crayon she asked me if H was able to colour. I told her no he wasn't able but it made him happy to watch her do it.
As we walked through the parking lot this precious five year old pointed to H's chair and asked why he couldn't walk. I said his legs don't allow him to walk. I then added that his brain was unable to tell his legs to walk. The adorability factor was raised when Sweetness said "well maybe I could show him how to walk". Couldn't you just melt?
It is these huge teachable moments that I love the most as a parent of children with disabilities. Even after all these years however I have yet to come up with the best answers to the questions little people ask but I hope that by stating the facts as they are and with a positive attitude that they will carry the message no matter how poorly verbalized.
If everyone could approach people with disabilities of all ages with the same innocence and open heart just as this little girl did the world would be a much better place not just for my children but human kind in general.

Part of a newly-discovered historic Tyneside wooden railway – hailed as being of international importance – is to be saved.
A 25m (82ft) stretch of the 1790s' waggonway was unearthed weeks ago by archaeologists Alan Williams and Richard Carlton at the former Neptune shipyard in Walker, Newcastle, which is due for redevelopment by Shepherd Offshore.
The superbly-preserved track, which carried coal from collieries to the Tyne for shipment, is the earliest and only surviving example of the standard gauge railway which spread across the world.
Now Tyne Wear Archives and Museums (TWAM) is lifting an section of the railway after winning an emergency £9,000 grant from the Prism fund of Arts Council England.
This gives awards to museums to collect and conserve important industrial and scientific artefacts.
The section of rails and sleepers will be stored in environmentally-controlled conditions at the Stephenson Railway Museum in North Tyneside.
That will allow TWAM to seek funds for the sophisticated treatment needed to preserve the timber and eventually display the track in one of its museums. Newcastle historian Les Turnbull, author of a book published earlier this year on the North East's waggonways, said: "This is really exciting and I am overjoyed that some of the railway will be preserved.
"It was part of a major main line in the late 18th century which probably carried a 'train' of horse and coal-filled cart every minute.
"It would have been a disaster if the railway had been lost.
"This is the railway which gave the standard gauge to the world and its loss would have been an international tragedy.
"The railways are the greatest gift the North East has given to the world.
"The part played by The Journal has been immeasurable in creating awareness about this find and getting people thinking about what could be done."
Alan Williams said that taking the stretch apart and rebuilding it will give vital information on how the original was constructed.
It has already been discovered that planking from boats – probably colliers – was recycled for use as sleepers for the railway.
He said: "The Journal's role in helping to save part of this railway has been crucial."
John Clayson, keeper of science and industry at TWAM, said: "This amazing find was an unrepeatable opportunity to preserve the early remains of what became one of Tyneside's most significant contributions to trade and communication worldwide – the standard gauge railway.
"Recognising how vital Shepherd Offshore's redevelopment of the Neptune Shipyard is for bringing jobs to Tyneside, we knew we had to move very quickly to avoid delaying their plans.
"Recovering the wooden rails and sleepers is a race against time.
"A covering of coal waste had protected them from the atmosphere for more than 200 years.
"As soon as it was removed the timber began to dry out and deteriorate.
"Shepherd Offshore and the site contractors, O'Brien's have been marvellous because they have carefully preserved the excavated site to give us the chance to mobilise our rescue project.
"Following treatment and stabilisation we hope that part of the waggonway will be reconstructed for display in one of Tyneside's museums, where we are sure it will be a fascinating exhibit that will bring the region's early railway heritage to life.
"It's amazing to think that this reminder of Tyneside's prosperity in the 18th century has been brought to light by a 21st century development which will bring jobs in the latest wind and wave technology to our area."

Heritage Graffiti Remover - removes graffiti from heritage, porous surfaces
Heritage Graffiti Remover - removes graffiti from heritage, porous surfaces
5 Litres
Heritage Graffiti Remover will remove spraycan graffiti from porous surfaces, particularly heritage buildings, monuments and statues, without damaging the underlying substrate.
How to Use
Step 1:
Heritage Graffiti Remover should be decanted into a smaller vessel and is then applied liberally over the graffiti using a nylon brush.
Three flood coats should be applied, with just a minute's gap between applications.
Slight agitation may give better results.
Do not allow the solutions to dry out. If it does dry, simply apply one more coat prior to washing the graffiti off.
On highly porous sandstone, or on very old or sun baked graffiti the solution should be given up to 10 minutes dwell time. The rule of thumb for best results in these situations is "the longer and wetter the better".
Step 2:
Jet wash the graffiti off using hot or cold water at low pressure.
It may be necessary to repeat the process and allow further dwell time.

Categories: Squirrels
On April 4, 2015 our Silver Spring squirrel removal professionals were contacted by the owners of this home on Silver Spring Avenue in Silver Spring, Maryland. The homeowners were complaining of scratching noises coming from the attic around 6 am every morning and 6 pm every evening for the past few days. Upon inspection, our squirrel removal technicians discovered a female gray squirrel that had taken up residence in the attic. They also discovered five newborn babies in a nest that the squirrel built in the front-left corner of the attic directly above the homeowners' bedroom.
The inspection of the roof revealed one entry point the gray squirrel made by chewing a hole through a shingle and plywood rooftop above the fascia board. This entry hole allows rain water to enter the soffit area, causing moisture damage such as wood rot and mold.
Other damages found during the inspection included electrical wires that were chewed on, as well as rolled-in insulation that was ripped apart. It is common for squirrels to chew on ROMEX electrical wiring in attics, which creates a fire hazard for the occupants of the home. The mother squirrel ripped apart the rolled-in insulation in one corner of the attic to build her nest. Luckily for the homeowners, the damaged insulation was only a 4'x4′ area and not the entire attic.
Our Montgomery County squirrel removal company not only traps and removes squirrels, but also repairs damage caused by squirrels. The damage done to this home is common when squirrels are living in the attic. The process begins with trapping of the mother squirrel and removal of the baby squirrels (all baby squirrels are transported to wildlife rehabilitators). After the eviction, the hole that the squirrel chewed through the roof is repaired to prevent other wildlife and rain water from entering the attic. The electrical wiring and attic insulation repairs are the final steps in restoring this roof and attic back to its original appearance.
Contact us online or give us a call if you suspect a squirrel might be nesting in your attic.
We realize that you want your animal intruder gone ASAP. Contact us with emergency wildlife issues.
Our technicians can identify all local pest wildlife species and choose the best removal method based on the animal's lifestyle.
We will repair the damage, seal entry points and offer you advice on keeping the wildlife away from your home for good.

I'm still trying to finish some projects and have been successful in some small ones.
3 years ago I got a Featherweight for my birthday . We didn't have a good start together, actually after some sewing time I had to bring her to inspection, because I managed to make a big mess in the bobbin case.
Then I hadn't the courage again to practice with her until 3 weeks ago, when my Pfaff was away for a much needed service time. So I tried again with the FW and all went well. I even pieced her a protection pad, a cover and a drawstring bag, which parts had been prepared now for all those 3 years ;-)
And I pieced with her this block:
More finishes coming soon ;-)

You are currently browsing the tag archive for the 'taxis' tag.
At breakfast we decided to try to find anything but temples, pagodas, and Buddha. Mandalay is a big city; there must be other things to see. After reviewing pamphlets, Trip Advisor, the front desk…we decided it would be a crafts day.
First though, we walked over to the train station to buy a ticket for Margaret's departure to Hsipaw the next day. It was a little confusing to find where to go, but we eventually discovered the ticket offices in the open air second floor of a hotel, on a bridge over the train tracks. (Yeah, get your head around that) We explained what we wanted at the counter, and the man shook his head and pointed for us to go somewhere else. We didn't see anywhere else to go, but he seemed insistent, so we walked away and stumbled upon an identical ticket office on the other side of the building. After much discussion behind the windows, someone finally said "sixteen," which we realized was window #16, and once we got there, everything was rather self-explanatory. Language is really not so much of a barrier when you look at it practically: two tourists show up at a ticket window at a train station. It doesn't take language to realize they are most likely hoping to buy a ticket. All the tourists have to say is "Hsipaw," and all the counter agent has to convey is the price. Except…. there was a little more to say, and thank goodness our agent was able to convey it. First class was sold out, and the only seats available were coach, it was a 12-hour journey, and it departed at 4:00 am. Margaret decided to take the bus instead.
Then we walked to the gold leaf craft shop. We arrived soon after two tour busses arrived, so the small place was filled with tourists from England. It was noisy the whole time we were there, while two men banged away at their tiny pieces of gold flake, making them molecule-thin. An employee came up to me with a bunch of samples and explained the whole process of making gold leaf and also of making bamboo paper (which is made exactly the same as other paper, as far as I could tell). The gold flakes are pressed between layers of bamboo paper, then bound into a packet. The packet is then pounded for hours, periodically opened to split the flakes into smaller pieces, then bound up again and pounded some more. Eight hours total for each final flake of about 2 inches squared. Inside the show room I found a few lacquered bamboo boxes, embellished in gold designs. Continuing to test what I had been told (look, I just don't trust that the stories told to tourists are always accurate), I asked if they made the lacquered boxes here in Mandalay. "No, the boxes are made in Bagan." This pleased me, since I had purchased a box in Bagan, believing it to be a local product. From my casual investigation, it appears to be true.
Margaret and I were sitting on a bench in a corner, looking at the map and trying to figure out where to go next, when the buses pulled away. The banging of the men with hammers ceased immediately. Ha ha ha!
Our next stop was miles away so we hired a taxi. The hotel front desk had told us that the wood craft shops were near the Mahamuni Buddha Temple, so we asked the taxi driver to take us there, just to give him and easy landmark to aim for. We had no plan to visit the temple at first. But our driver brought us to a quiet street with a less popular entrance, and the quiet was inviting. We decided to step inside and check it out, since we were there anyway. It was a good decision.
The entrances to many temples have people selling things on both sides, and this place was no different. Small Buddha statues, jade jewelry, textiles, and paintings were offered. This one held multiple palmists, which we had not seen previously. Margaret bought jade bracelets and I browsed.
The temple proper was surrounded by pillars encased in jade in myriad mosaics. It was specatacular, all green and glistening in the sun. Just inside, we found the Mahamuni Buddha. Like we saw at the Golden Rock, worshipers bought gold flake and applied it to the Buddha while praying. Again, only men were allowed to do this. Women sat in rows outside, praying. And for the benefit of the people outside, there was a livecam going the whole time, so we could watch our men apply the gold. We continued on and realized this was a large complex with museums and other holy sites. We explored bronze sculptures on display, magnificent art, artifacts, a giant gong, several giant bells, and additional pagodas. There were at least four separate museums with different categories of collections. One appeared to hold manuscripts, and looked something like a library, with books, parchments, and even dusty old cassette tapes.
Interestingly, very few foreigners were there, which could have explained the amped up excitement of the local visitors. Many more group photos were taken. We were delighted when a super happy monk begged us for a photo with him, then demanded (with a sly smile) that his shy, blushing sister also get a photo with us. (Margaret has the photos of this, or I would show you.) Twice more we bumped into the same monk and his sister, and it felt like we were old friends after awhile.
Bronze figures on display were originally from Angkor Wat in Cambodia and were taken to Thailand. After winning a battle in 1599 when the Thai king attacked Taungoo (in the Bago region of Myanmar), the Taungoo king presented these bronze figures to the Rakhine king in gratitude for his assistance, and thus they came to live in Myanmar.
We were both so glad we randomly decided to tour that temple. It was one of our best stops of the trip!
Outside we went to a wood crafters shop, which held some pretty cool wood carvings but was not really set up for tourists like the gold flake place. No craftsman was around, no evidence of the work being done, just a very dusty showroom with one young woman and a baby on site. I found it amusing that the baby's blanket, crib, and diaper pack were in the center of the showroom.
Across the street we found marble crafts, which weren't even mentioned by the hotel front desk or in any of the lists of things to do that we found during our morning search. There were many shops selling marble statues (mostly of Buddha), crowding each other on both sides of the street. This is clearly a major craft in the area and I'm surprised that we hadn't heard of it before stumbling onto this part of town.
We were hot and tired at this stage. Our plan had been to grab a taxi to our next stop, but there were none in sight. I can't understand why, but there are simply very few tourists here, among all the marble and wood and the wonderful Mahamuni Buddha complex. That explains why there were no taxis. We thought to start walking to the bridge. Why not? But soon we had to stop for a rest. We picked one of the millions of tiny little shops beside the road to sit under an awning in the shade. There was a woman rolling up betel leaf packets in the front. A dirty little boy in the back sat on the floor beside a cooler. I went to the back and tapped on the side of the cooler, and the boy opened it for me. I bought a soda for 500 kyats (38 cents), and we sat there while the women and children from other nearby stalls drew close and chatted happily around us, though we couldn't speak to each other. I gave some of my mandarin oranges to the kids. Would you believe it? While we sat there, the happy monk and his sister showed up and stopped at the stall next to us. We all laughed at seeing each other again.
The soda was finished and we were ready to go when a taxi pulled up. The woman had laid down for a nap, and the taxi driver obviously knew her, because he went right to her betel stand, grabbed what he wanted, and said a few things to her and she nodded. M and I asked him "Taxi?" he nodded, and we asked "U Bein bridge?" and he sort of hesitated, then nodded. So we climbed into the back.
The driver turned the taxi around and began heading north, and we were pretty sure the bridge was south. We found the photo of the bridge in our itinerary, and tapped on the window to show one of the men in the cab where we wanted to go. The driver nodded with great assuredness, but did not change course. We waited until we were confident again that we were going the wrong way. We tapped on the window to get the driver to pull over, which he did. We showed him U Bein bridge on the GPS. He nodded – clearly no hesitation that he knew what we wanted. He spoke quite a bit, but obviously we didn't understand anything until he began pointing to the bags of goods in the back with us. OH! He needed to make another trip first! The man in the front was a passenger, not his buddy. We dropped the man off at the hospital, with all of his goods, then turned and headed due south.
It was a rather long trip and Margaret and I realized we would never have made it walking. It was a good 5 miles south of where we stopped to rest. Once we arrived, the driver would not accept payment, which puzzled us. We tried multiple times to pay him, but he wouldn't accept it. We thought maybe his plan was to wait for us and then get a larger payment by returning us home, so we used sign language to say we would be back and we would meet him at that spot. We hoped he understood.
The U Bein Bridge is 3/4 mile long and believed to be the longest teak wood bridge in the world. Tilapia are farmed in the lake, but due to recent growth in industry along the shores and tributaries, there is a wastewater pollution problem. Thousands of fish are dying, impacting the fishermen and causing a rotten fish smell that we noticed along portions of the bridge. In 2016, the government of Myanmar designated Taungthaman Lake an environmental conservation area and began making plans to clean it up.
The popular thing is to see the bridge at sunrise, but we were there at midday. Still, there were plenty of tourists. This, unlike the Mahamuni Buddha temple, draws the masses. People hawked their wares all over the parking lot and the roads up to the bridge, and for a good portion along the bridge as we walked it. I was very excited to see my favourite snack of Myanmar – sliced green mango in chili powder – sold here, and I bought some within minutes. M's tummy was still upset and she didn't share the spicy treat with me. In fact, she was still feeling poorly when we had walked all the way to the end of the bridge and back, so we bought a coconut to drink the milk and fill up on natural electrolytes.
We searched and searched for our taxi driver, but he was nowhere to be seen. We were disappointed because we wanted to pay him for that very long ride earlier. We couldn't understand why he wouldn't accept payment – he was a taxi driver after all. Maybe it was because the shop owner said good things about us. Maybe they appreciated that we had befriended the monk. Maybe he regretted the confusion about delivering the guy to the hospital before taking us to the bridge. Finally we hired another family that was thrilled to get our business. There was a man sleeping in the back of the taxi and the son thumped his leg to wake him up. We showed them our map of where the hotel was, and they happily carried us north again through the entertaining streets of Mandalay.
Margaret was feeling much better this morning – Yay!! We were picked up by the JJ Tours bus company (for Joyous Journey, M told me) and we took a bus from Bagan to Mandalay. The bus asked us for the address of our hotel and dropped us as close as they could. We had only nine blocks to walk. Still, it's in the 90s here every day. Personally, I love the heat (not humidity), and after a couple days I was used to it. We also didn't know the city, and had to cross the railroad tracks which took a while because we had to find a bridge first, then figure out the street signs till we were sure we were headed in the right direction. Dragging luggage nine blocks on busy streets with no sidewalks felt hotter than the 90s though. We were so relieved to find our hotel finally.
We dropped our bags, freshened up, and met in the lobby by 3:30 pm. There was a lot of day left. We caught a taxi to the Mandalay Palace. It was $4.50. I'm getting used to taxis for everything when it's so inexpensive.
The palace was built from 1857 to 1859 and the monarchy was in place when it was built. It was designed to be the center of the new capital city of Mandalay. The complex is an enormous square in the middle of the city, and surrounded by a fortified wall and a moat. There were cannons out front. The security is more rigid than anything we've experienced so far, with police/military meeting us at the front gate and asking us to turn over our passports and name our hotel before we could go in. Also, no photos were allowed in the grounds outside the palace area.
I included the map at the top to show how many buildings are here. The grounds are extensive and well-kept, and visitors are allowed to wander through all of it. The larger buildings are more decorated. Inside they contain several old thrones for different kings and queens. One building holds artifacts such as the royal betel spittoon, royal sandals, and a royal pot.
We walked through many of the buildings, and came out again near the spiral watchtower. We collected our shoes and went back to our taxi, where two young swindlers tried to cheat us by trying to talk us into having them drive us to our other destinations. They were so sneaky, and so bad at it, we lost our patience and told them to forget it. For example, they quoted us 20,000 kyats at one point. So then one says, "Ok, I'll give you a discount of 2,000. So the price will be 22,000 kyats." Margaret said, laughing, "That's going the wrong direction!" A fair price for what we wanted would have been more like 8000 kyats anyway. When they took us back out to the front gate, I handed over my 2000 kyats that we had agreed to in the beginning. "No, it's four!" the tall one says. "You told me two," I said. "But there are two people," he counters, "Two thousand kyats for each of you." "No way! We discussed it, and we agreed to a price of 2000." Well, we went back and forth with those scheisters, and I finally gave in and handed over another 2000. We have not had anyone try any kind of manipulation this whole trip until these two. It's only $1.50. But still. Ugh.
We were so mad we walked to our next stop. It was only a mile to the base of the hill we were about to climb. On the top of the hill is the Su Taung Pyae Pagoda, and apparently the place to watch the sunset. Many people gleefully told us there were 1700 steps to the top, which is 755 feet above the rest of the city. So. We started up the steps.
It was a pretty long haul. That's a lot of steps in 90+ degree heat. We stopped for breaks and took photos of the city on our way up. There are a few smaller pagodas on the way up. And finally, we came to an escalator to carry us the last few feet. Since we had to leave our shoes at the entrance, I remarked that stepping onto the escalator in bare feet did not seem like the safest thing to do. At the second level, we walked around spilled blood on the floor, then passed an older woman as she had her toes bandaged. Right. Not safe to ride escalators in bare feet. Just sayin.
At the top the pagoda is beautiful and mirrored (which by now you know I like). There were people everywhere and the sun was setting, making the light a little bit magical. We walked all around the pagoda and talked with people and took selfies and had a fun time till the sun set. The sky was rather hazy and obscured most of the view, but turned the sun a bright red as it dropped to the horizon.
We left just a bit before sunset in order to beat the crowd. We had to wait in line at the elevator, and the queue was growing so long (and sunset not quite happened), that they reversed the order on the escalator, and had both elevator and escalator going down. Finally we got to the bottom, paid a donation to get our shoes out of the locker, and went out into the parking lot to find a taxi. After our last experience, we were afraid of being taken advantage of. The guy who took us was totally no-nonsense, and practically rolled his eyes when we tried to bargain. "Look," he says. "It's 5000 to take people to the bottom of the hill. You want to go to your hotel. That's 10,000 total." We asked, "How about 6000?" He just looked at us. "8000?" He rolled his eyes and gestured to us to get into the taxi. "The price is 10,000," he stated matter of factly. Ha ha ha!! So funny.
We were hungry and ate dinner at a place recommended by the hotel staff as having authentic Shan State traditional food. When we arrived, there were only a couple people there, though tables from the place were spread out onto the street. We sat down and ordered and before our food came, people started arriving. In no time, the place was jammed with people, and more and more arrived to grab take-out meals. Margaret and I were seated at a large table, and the staff asked if we would mind having others seated at our table with us. Of course not. A lovely young French couple sat down and we told them what was delicious on the menu. They were getting ready to go – not on a three day trek as we had done – but on a six day trek! Out in the western part, I think they said. "Where women tattoo their faces," they told us. "Not many tourists go out to that region."
Finally we walked home to Home Hotel (aptly named). What a day! Bagan in the morning; Mandalay in the evening. Full belly and comfortable bed. Life is good.

How you can have more than 24 hours a day!
September 27th 2012, I made a decision that started out a turn of events that has changed the course of my future forever.
I wasn't an average student in school, I was good. I had great talent and was very involved in leadership and humanitarian/ religious societies. The thing was I didn't know what I now know and I feel so blessed to have come into contact with the people who opened my eyes to what leverage REALLY meant.
I mean, I was going to leave school with my master's degree, go work for a couple of years in an architectural practice and work towards getting my Architect's license and then go back to work again for a higher salary. On the side, I was going to be an entrepreneur, working my Web Design business for extra income and for the fun of it. I was going to do all that; but I had one greater desire than "success in life". I wanted to be free, and I wanted it NOW.
Not when I'm sixty-five, I wanted to live my life now when I have the strength to enjoy it. I wanted to have the choices of what to do, when to do them, for how long to do them and with whom to do them and that was my biggest desire, over the desire to be rich.
The blessing was my realization of what Leverage meant. I could define it but I never really grasped the extent of its power.
Some definitions I found online are:
In the physical sense, leverage is an assisted advantage. As a verb, to leverage means to gain an advantage through the use of a tool. For example, you can more easily lift a heavy object with a lever than you can lift it unaided. – whatis.com
The ability to influence a system, or an environment, in a way that multiplies the outcome of one's efforts without a corresponding increase in the consumption of resources. In other words, leverage is the advantageous condition of having a relatively small amount of cost yield a relatively high level of returns. – Businessdictionary.com
In my own words,
Leverage is anything that makes you get the job done faster and easier.
The computer is a great form of leverage. Cars and planes help us travel faster and easier; mobile phones help communication, and so on. I understood this kind of leverage, but what totally jacked me what when I realised its true power and what it could mean for me in life.
PEOPLE – Duplicating yourself
The greatest form of leverage is People leverage – the leverage on people's efforts. I always knew about division of labour and what it meant in terms of efficiency of work and speed, that's a form of leverage. But when I realised the true power of people leverage, in a split second, I totally had a mental shift in the way to go about things.
Consider this thought by John Paul Getty, an Oil Billionaire. Read this out loud slowly:
I'd rather have 1% of the efforts of 100 men than 100% of my own effort
Oh my God! Did you catch that? I permit you to stop for a minute and re-read that. Here's what I learnt from that.
Simple math: 100% of my effort = 1% of the efforts of 100 people. Bingo!!
Every living soul on the face of the earth has the same 24 hours each day. It's the same for you and I where you agree or not…lol. But there's only so much we can do individually within 24 hours.
So what do we usually do?
We increase our potential; bag more degrees and certificates from courses and we become a little more productive than before, and after a while we repeat that again and you see, what happens is that we are so highly skilled and work ever so harder and efficiently to achieve our dreams, but we'll be working harder because with greater power comes greater responsibility and the more skill we develop, the more work we can do and so we are not getting much freer as time goes, we're getting much more busier instead.
But wait a minute, what if I use the concept of leverage (what I personally consider a miracle), and get 24 people to give me 1 hour of their 24 hours, then I would have replaced my 24 hours of productivity (that's even if I can work a full 24 hours in the first place) and still have my personal 24 hours to do whatever.
But hold on, what if instead of getting 24 people, I get 48 people? Then I can just get 30 minutes of their time every day. What if its 96 people, I'll just need 15 minutes?
This is the power guys. If I went out and got 200 people, the time they would need to give me would be down to about 7 minutes.
Can you see this?
Well that's if I want to reproduce just 24 hours. What if I keep getting more people to give me 1 hour of their time every day? 200 people would mean 200 hours in a day. And voila!! That's the magic.
There are people who have thousands of hours a day in productivity because of this idea. This is the power of the rich. LEVERAGE!
Leverage is the only thing that can give you true freedom in life. I saw this concept and then I found the perfect financial vehicle that can make me achieve this and END OF STORY! I'm going to be retired before the age of 30. My life is set. This is what excites me so much that I lose sleep. If you're wondering if all these can translate into a stable financial future, I've made lots of friends who do not work a single day again because of this idea. It's another world entirely when you wake up to pursue your own dreams and not fulfil the dreams of someone else.
I hope this article helped give you a glimpse of how the future can be if we make the right decisions and take the right actions.
I live by this quote. "I will do today what other people won't, so that I can have tomorrow what others can't"
I'm open to comments, for discussion on this matter and if you want to know about how I'm helping a lot of people create the future they desire, feel free to contact me.
Zig Ziglar said, "You'll get what you want in life if you help enough other people get what they want in life".
That's my two cents this morning.
Have a great day!

Democratic senator calls for total ban of 'dangerous' BitcoinPosted: February 27, 2014 in Economy, Investment, Junkyard
Tags: Bitcoins
Sen. Joe Manchin, D-W.Va, has written to federal regulators urging them to totally ban Bitcoin, the "cryptocurrency" that has so excited the financial and tech world over the last year. Manchin calls Bitcoin "dangerous," "disruptive" and "highly unstable."
Addressed to Treasury Secretary Jack Lew and several other regulators, the letter paints Bitcoin as volatile and unregulated, a criminal currency already denounced by other major governments.
"The clear ends of Bitcoin for either transacting in illegal goods and services or speculative gambling make me weary of its use," Manchin, who sits on the Senate Banking Committee, concludes. "I urge the regulators to work together, act quickly, and prohibit this dangerous currency from harming hard-working Americans."
Sen. Manchin's objection certainly comes at a time of major turmoil in the virtual currency's history: The largest Bitcoin exchange (at which coins can be bought, sold, and traded), Mt. Gox, collapsed earlier this week after months of problems. Federal prosecutors are already looking into it and have reportedly issued subpoenas to Mt. Gox and others.
And the volatility of the currency is indisputable: Bitcoins went from being worth $20 each to over $1200 over the course of a year, before settling on their present value at around $500.
Silk Road, the most commonly cited marketplace for buying illegal goods with Bitcoins, also recently went under — while at the same time, major e-commerce sites like Tiger Direct and Overstock.com have begun accepting Bitcoin and are doing quite a bit of business with it.
NBC News contacted Manchin's office with several questions about the proposed ban, but haven't received a response. We'll update this story if we hear back.
