Hunting a Rental Property in Edinburgh Where Pet is Allowed
Searching a house can be a little rough for people with pets. Majority of the landowners particularly highlight that tenants with pets are not welcome. Generally because they panic that it might cause damage to their furniture, leave flea infestations. Another reason why landlords won't allow pets is that, most landlords are themselves leaseholders and are bound by the terms of the lease.
In order to find a property which welcomes to the pets, there are certain aspects which you must consider.
While entering into contract with the landlords, a huge number of letting agencies insert in a clause, according to which they will not withhold consent for a pet unless it is unreasonable. It is very important that you must always be upfront and honest with the landlord; he might even appreciate this and welcome your pet.
Ground floors: For people with dogs, renting can turn out to be a dog's life. Living with cats in a rental property is however easier as compare to the dogs. Majority of the people who have cats with them, they desire to get a flat on the ground floor so that it is easy for the cat to move in and out. Finding such a property is not a simple job. Significantly, having other pets like reptiles, fish etc, is not a bigger problem as they can be restrained in glass cabinets and jars. Thus pets which don't scratch the furniture and floors and are not hairy are usually not a big issue for the landlords.
Pet rates: Frequently the landowners increase the deposit from six weeks to ten weeks for pet owners. Mostly this step is taken by the landlords to recover the maintenance and repair costs after the tenancy expires. Moreover there is a pet's clause in such a contract which cover every possible damage a pet might cause, like scratched floors, damaged curtains etc. Even with all these safeguards provided for the landlord, there is shortage of suitable properties which are let to tenants with pets.
Offering extra money: Subsequently there are many investment landlords who are not psychologically and emotionally attached to their property like occupier owners. These landlords might allow pets. Furthermore, you may find a home for you and your pet by paying extra charges to them.
Tips for tenants with pets: It is better you should spend time to look around for properties. If you find an appropriate place with the landlord's consent to accept your pet, then you should get it fast. This is your obligation to make sure that your pets are obedient and trained, as they will not to give a hard time to the landlord. You have to make sure that you will try to keep all the things in a proper manner. This will put your landlord at ease.

PHILADELPHIA - The worn, exasperated look Braves manager Bobby Cox sported as he pulled starter Horacio Ramirez from Saturday's game told you everything you needed to know about the left-hander's brief, unimpressive day.

Ramirez struggled with control and making timely pitches, succumbing to Philadelphia after 42/3 innings and six earned runs. The Phillies defeated Atlanta 6-3.
As Ramirez headed to the dugout, Cox stood atop the mound, slowly wagging his head as he stared off into the blue sky over Philly.
"He was inconsistent (Saturday). He had too many bad pitches," Cox said. "Just the minute you think he's getting it going in a ballgame, he makes a bad pitch."
The same could be said for the 25-year-old's season, his third in the majors and first coming back from offseason shoulder surgery.
After an inconsistent start, it looked as if Ramirez had turned a corner in his two recent starts against Florida.
He gave up a run in seven innings Monday to beat the Marlins in Miami. He threw five scoreless in the outing before that.
"The last two games were my best all season, to me," Ramirez said. "I expected to come in here and go deep in the game and keep the team in it, but that wasn't the case."
Pat Burrell's solo home run to lead off the second inning - the first hit Ramirez allowed - was a bad omen in the vein.
Catcher Johnny Estrada set up inside, but Ramirez's fastball sailed over the plate, where it met Burrell's bat. From there, Ramirez became even more erratic.
He gave up eight hits and three walks. One, to catcher Todd Pratt in the fourth, was intentional to get to pitcher Brett Myers. He then laced a two-out fastball into right field for an RBI single.
The final one came with two outs in the fifth, when David Bell hit a three-run homer.
"When I had to make a good pitch, I didn't make one," said Ramirez, who dropped to 7-5 and his ERA rise to 5.09.
More fallout
Cox continued to say that he didn't think there should be any punishment for Estrada's altercation Thursday with home plate umpire Doug Eddings.
"There shouldn't be anything," Cox said. "We'll let (the league office) handle it."
Cox, Estrada and pitcher Mike Hampton were ejected after Estrada, apparently provoked by Eddings, rose from his catcher's crouch to get in Eddings' face.
"Johnny doesn't show up any umpire," Cox said. "That's what doesn't add up."

Magic has really taken off over the past few years.
I agree completely! Can't wait!
I'd take that right now!!
Awesome news to hear. QC2011 was a lot of fun, and one of the biggest problems with a lan party is dealing with programs like Steam that don't work too well offline.
They had fiber optic last year! I downloaded so many games so quickly...
Hey guys, in Fable 4, you'll be able to create your own universes because you're actually God!
This list is spot on.
If only developers would take things like this seriously...
The author does say it's a game for the intelligent gamer.
The demo does absolutely NOTHING to show the game's powerful narrative and is a poor judge of the game, honestly.
Man, this game... so unexpected.
I came for pew pew. I left questioning life.
@BadCircuit it's a trailer to celebrate their independence day, and that's kind of what the Revolution was about... ;)
AC3: Liberation is about the Seven Years' War! And remember that Louisiana is still a French colony at that point... who knows?
Maybe they'll strategically deploy maple syrup!
Wow. I bet there'll be more mad english folk now. Hopefully they show the buildup that the author describes, and not just a bunch of soldiers shooting into a crowd.
It looks like Thief and Bioshock had a beautiful baby.
I wish that licensed games weren't doomed to be bad.
Sounds like a good time waster.
Spot on. I mean, Mario is good and all, and Zelda, and Metroid... you see where I'm going. Even Disney makes new franchises, and if one failed, you never hear about it (I didn't know they made sequels to The Little Mermaid until last week).
Farmville disagrees...
This actually looks interesting. Although I really want more info on overstrike...
CQ is pretty good. Review is spot on... that damn parking lot.

Investors Take Action for Oil and Gas Accountability
By Jennifer Krill
May 23, 2011
The activists' rite of spring has arrived, this year with a new crop of shareholder resolutions looking to reform the oil and gas industry. In 2011 investor-owned oil and gas companies are considering a series of proposals calling for greater transparency and disclosure of chemicals used in hydraulic fracturing.
Shareholders have filed resolutions to address fracking at 9 companies total: ExxonMobil, Chevron, Ultra Petroleum, El Paso, Cabot Oil & Gas, Southwestern Energy, Energen, Anadarko and Carrizo Oil & Gas. "Oil and gas firms are being too vague about how they will manage the environmental challenges resulting from fracking," said New York State Comptroller Thomas DiNapoli in a January press release. DiNapoli's office filed a resolution with Cabot Oil & Gas asking for a specific plan to reduce or eliminate hazards from fracking. This week, shareholder advocacy group As You Sow will be moving resolutions at ExxonMobil, Chevron, and Ultra Petroleum.

Natural Gas: a "bridge" to where?
By Bruce Baizel
May 23, 2011
Now, as the issues of shale gas and hydraulic fracturing have focused attention on this sector, significant questions have emerged about the practicality and desirability of using natural gas as a bridge fuel.
One of the most interesting of the recent analyses of these questions is a report by David Hughes. He suggests that a convergence of interests between the natural gas industry looking to hype a new production prospect with investors, the energy policy establishment looking for a new energy source to support future economic growth and large environmental interests looking for a simple way to lower carbon emissions gave rise to the natural gas as bridge fuel mantra.
The most interesting part of his report is a close look at the production numbers for natural gas and an assessment of whether it is even possible for natural gas to serve as a bridge fuel. His bottom line: that the bridge fuel concept for natural gas represents wishful thinking and is not possible to achieve.

Where do you think the fracking sand comes from?
By Sharon Wilson
May 23, 2011
Just when you thought you had learned all the dirty secrets of the shale drilling debacle, here comes something new. It took a while, but you finally figured out that the landman s depiction of two tanks sitting in a green field with flowers all around was far from accurate. You learned about the multiple tanks, diesel fumes, noise, bright lights, constant truck traffic, noxious odors, massive pipelines, injection wells, landfarms, waste pits, frack pits, compressor stations, tank farms, water depletion, water contamination, spills, processing plants, nose bleeds, royalty checks that never came, rashes, illegal dumping and etc. But there s more and if you live in North Texas, you should pay close attention.
The sand used for hydraulic fracturing has to be mined and that can be quite a destructive process. Sometimes, as is the case in the Ozarks, it requires mountain top removal. Other times they have to dredge the rivers, or they just dig the sand.
Here are some of the environmental concerns from frack sand mining. Thanks to Friends of the Rivers.

Livia Firth signs the Bristol Bay Protection Pledge
By Lucy Pearce
May 20, 2011
Did Colin answer? Did you stutter? That was the brilliant tweet sent back at me after I tweeted Feeling jittery after trying to call Livia Firth to ask her to support campaign to protect Bristol Bay, Alaska. She wasn't in! Now, focus...
In the end I never did actually speak with Livia Firth. But through her PA, we established that YES she did want to sign the Bristol Bay Protection Pledge - in an effort to help protect the world's greatest wild salmon fishery. In doing this, Livia Firth, Creative Director, Eco Age (www.eco-age.com) joins an illustrious list of 50 jewellery retailers including Tiffany s and Goldsmiths, pledging not to use gold from the Pebble Mine.
She said:
As a supporter of a jewelry industry that supports environmental and social justice I am happy to support the Bristol Bay Protection Pledge. The environment is under huge strain. Never have our personal consumer decisions mattered more. Meanwhile industries can make it easy for us to do the right thing by taking responsibility for their supply chains."
We re thrilled to have Livia Firth support the efforts to protect Bristol Bay, and hope that her support will inspire more jewellers to get on board. If you re a jeweller and would like to sign the pledge, please contact email@example.com

Good news for Montana's rivers & streams: cyanide mining bill vetoed!
By Bonnie Gestring
May 20, 2011
Good news for Montana's rivers and streams!
Last week Montana's Governor Schweitzer vetoed a bill (SB 306) to overturn Montana s ban on open pit, cyanide leach mining.
Every major open pit, cyanide leach mine in Montana has caused significant water pollution, and taxpayers have been left with tens of millions in clean-up costs. Drinking water supplies, agricultural lands, and native trout have suffered.
Citizens took matters into their own hands in 1998, when Montanans first passed a citizen's initiative against open pit cyanide leach mining, and then again in 2004, by an even larger margin (62%). This year, a Montana legislator introduced a bill to undermine the initiative, at the request of the Montana mining industry.
Thank you Governor Schweitzer for vetoing the bill, and upholding the will of the voters!

Channel 4 - Big Brother
719 reviews from the community
Review of "Channel 4 - Big Brother"
"BIG BROTHER will broadcast LIVE SEX"
The hit Channel 4 reality game show will return to our screens on May ...For those of you that do not know about the Big Brother phenomenon I just have one thing to say to you...WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN????!!!!!Love it or hate it, there will be no escape from the frenzy and hype that surrounds this show. The first series aired in 2000 and was an instant success, followed by the second series last year which was even bigger than the first! So for those of you who are not familiar with the Big Brother concept let me give you a crash course...
------------------------------------Big Bro In a Nutshell
10 contestants move into one house and are monitored 24 hours a day, 7 days a week by hidden cameras all over the house. Cameras watch their every move and the general public can watch them over the internet and on television. The show has a duration of 9 weeks and the fate of the contestants is decided by viewers. Each week the other contestants vote for two people that they would like evicted from the house and the contestants with the most nominations for eviction face the public vote.Each week a housemate is evicted from the house and the winner is the person who survives public eviction after living in the house for 9 weeks and walks away with a cheque for £70,000 (not enough if you ask me!)!
Big Brother trademarks include the infamous Diary Room where contestants get to share their feelings with Big Brother and at times get to let off a bit of steam! It is also the room where they may be called in to get disciplined from Big Brother and where the sinister nominations for eviction get made. The weekly tasks are another intricate part of Big Brother where the contestants gamble on getting more money to spend on the food for the week if they complete the task successfully. If they fail, they just get less money to spend on food.
Big Brother has had two successful series' which has made celebrities out of members of the general public and it looks set to continue its success with the new one!
Things to look forward to in Big Brother 3:
Big Brother is coming back with a load of new changes and looks set to be BIGGER and BETTER than ever!
Some of the changes we can look forward to:
** The number of housemates will rise from 10 to 12.
** Viewers will be able to register their eviction votes by SMS text messages as well as via telephone and interactive TV.
** The contestants' weekly challenges will be shown live on Channel 4 on Saturday nights.
** Viewers will get the chance to see the contestants enter the house live on TV.
** A specially built new Big Brother house has been built at the Elstree Studios in Hertfordshire
** The new house will have an outdoor heated swimming pool in the gardens.
** The contestants will face a strict set of rules when nominating housemates for eviction. They need to give 'adequate' reasons for nomination and failing to do so will result in a warning. If they get three warnings then they face eviction.
** The housemates' weekly tasks will be shown live on Saturday nights on Channel 4.
** There will be much tighter restrictions on personal belongings. Musical instruments, games and books can't be taken into the house, but can potentially be earned by completing mini-tasks set by Big Brother. Only one magazine per person will be allowed, but the contestants will be able to take in up to six bottles or cans of beer or two bottles of wine.
** Viewers will be able to see the Big Brother contestants enter the house live on Channel Four for the first time.
Other news about the new BB from recent newspaper reports:
** Contestants in the new series of Big Brother will not be given any clues as to England's fortunes in the World Cup. They will not even be informed if England make it to the final.
** Viewers will be able to see the Big Brother contestants enter the house live on Channel Four for the first time.
** Channel Four have announced that if Big Brother housemates end up having sex in the new series, they will show it on television.
Big Brother Transmission Details
** Big Brother will begin on Friday May 24 2002. The first instalment will be one hour long and will be transmitted at 9pm on Channel Four with a follow-up programme at 11.35pm
** E4 the Channel 4 digital spin-off channel will present live coverage, 20 hours a day, along with the fanzine show Big Brother's Little Brother, which will be shown five times a week. On Sunday afternoons, Channel 4 will host a special edition of the fanzine show, with host Dermot O'Leary interviewing newly evicted housemates.
** The nightly 30-minute highlights shows will continue on Channel 4, with the Tuesday shows including the names of the two contestants who will be up for eviction at the end of the week.
** Friday nights will continue to be eviction nights.
The Last Word
Well, there you go! These are all the great things that you can look forward to seeing in the new Big Brother! As an avid fan of the first two series' I will definitely be tuning in to the new one and with 12 contestants instead of 10, it will certainly make compulsive viewing! I am sure that the new lot will be just as popular and successful as the contestants from the first two series but I do feel for them as I personally think that the new rules have been made too tight.
May 24th 2002. Put that in your diary now!
***** UPDATE!!!! 30th May 2002 *****
The 12 contestants are:ADELE- 23yr old aspiring DJ from Southport (Fitness fanatic!)
ALEX- 21yr old model from London (Brad Pitt look-alike!)
ALISON- 27yr old travel rep (Larger than life!)
LEE- 21yr old from Leicester(Bodybuilder)
LYNNE- 36yr old student from Aberdeen (Lively soul!)
JADE- 20yr old from London (Motormouth!)
JOHNNY- 29yr old fireman from Newcastle
KATE- 22yr old from London works on an IT helpdesk (Gorgeous!)
SPENCER- 22yr old from Cambridge (Cool and laid back)
PJ- 23 yr old Law student from Birmingham
SANDY- 43yr old fWomens personal shopper from London(Strange!)
SUNITA- Barrister from Brixton (Boring!)
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++*Week One*
Well the big news of the week so far is that Sunita has left the BB house! She is the first ever contestant to leave of her own will. This is just the kind of publicity that this series needed as alot of people seemed disinterested and were slating the show. It should be a good boost for the ratings if not anything else!My favourites are Kate and Spencer and I really hope that one of these two go on to win the Big Brother prize money!
I like Kate because she seems like a very pleasant and genuine person (And she is also totally gorgeous!)Spencer is another favourite of mine because he is quite calm and keeps himself to himself. He seems like the type of person that would walk away from conflict rather than rise to it.
The housemates got a huge shock when they were given three minutes to decide who they wanted out of the house...Jade or Lynne! Unaware to them, the public had been given the opportunity to vote for the two people who they wanted to be up for eviction and Lynne and Jade were the top choices!With only three minutes to decide, they came to a unanimous decision that Lynne should be the first to go! Naturally, Lynne did not take to this news lightly!
Personally I think Lynne should have been left in the house for a bit longer as I felt she would have caused more of a stir. I would have liked Sandy to go this week as I find him extremely dull!++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
*Week Two*Sandy, Alex and Alison are put to the public vote!!! It was obvious that Sandy and Alex would be up for nomination as they seemed to be winding up most of the housemates with their moaning and segregating themselves from the rest of the house.
Alison was announced as the second person to be evicted from the house. But she was evicted by the narrowest margin of votes in the shows history. More than 1.4 million viewers took part in the vote, with Alison getting 38.52% and Alex 38.44%.I personally felt really sorry for Alison and wish she had not been evicted as she was quite entertaining and got all the housemates involved in games! Although, she really annoyed me at times especially in the diary room where for some reason she would yell! Once again, I was hoping that Sandy would get out as he is getting more and more boring by the day! Although Alex moans alot, he is entertaining to watch as he is very outspoken and causes a stir in the house!
This was the week that Jade came out with her most classic lines to date...She thought that Cambridge was in London, although she knew that Birmingham was not in London!!! She has certainly surpassed Helen in the 'dumb blonde' stakes!!!***SHOCKER***
The housemates wake up to find the house divided into two- one is a rich side and one is poor! I really do not like this idea as I feel it will spoil the interaction between the housemates and will keep potential couples like Spencer and Kate apart.
*Week Three*
The other scandal in the house this week is when Alex wins the weekly task and is given the option of which side of the house to stay on and who gets to stay with him...Naturally he opts for staying on the rich side and manages to ruffle a few feathers when he choses Adele, Jade and Sophie to stay with him!!!
Lee and Johnny were put to public vote and Lee was evicted as a result after getting 84% of votes! I like both Lee and Johnny but out of the two I am glad that Lee got the boot although he was making interesting viewing with his escapades with Adele and Sophie!
*** I will provide more updates as the series goes on *** WATCH THIS SPACE!!!!

CityView: Open Letter to VANOC Media Relations
Dave Olson, community evangelist at Vancouver's Raincity Studios has done a great service to the cause of press freedom and the development of social media in his open letter to the Olympic bigwigs at VANOC. I'm a bit late in adding my praise, but I like to think I'm helping keep the momentum up for improving citizen journalism of the next Olympics. Given the shabby treatment Dave and the Raincity Studios crew received from VANOC at a press briefing (muscled out of the building by security guards, as detailed on Lowther Rinse Repeat), I thought another effort at constructive dialogue by Dave was awfully diplomatic.
An excerpt of the open letter is below:
In brief, we'd like to have a conversation about how to allow fans and amateur media makers to document their Olympic experience while keeping out of the way of the IOC IP lawyers. As a company and as individuals, we've produced extensive, non-accredited coverage of Beijing 2008, Torino 2006, SLC 2002, and Nagano 1998. With the next games literally in our neighborhood, we'll be hosting an independent, international media centre at our Gastown loft office. As part of this, we'll organize events like photo walks and aggregate fan-made content for the enjoyment of a worldwide audience. We'd like to work with you to do this for mutual benefit.
Keep up the good work.

Thanks for the kind words Mr. Narvey! I do think this is a huge opportunity to define the space between accredited media and citizens fans and i am pleased to help shape the conversation. Grassroots media does have a role to play which will increased while the influence of the "traditional" media diminishes.
I think quality content will float to the top, regardless of credentials or affiliations of the creator. Hope to see ya tonight at RCS for the alt. media powwow.

Every Scottish club will receive Ryder Cup tickets
Every golf club in Scotland will receive Ryder Cup tickets in a bid to boost membership retention.
The Scottish Golf Union, the Scottish Ladies' Golf Association, the Scottish government and junior organisation ClubGolf have agreed to set aside 3,000 tickets to be used on growing the game and slowing its decline in Scotland.
This means that every club affiliated to the Scottish unions can apply for two tickets that can be used as some sort of prize at the club.
As part of the offer, every club has received a toolkit that details how they can build junior membership, retain members, generate more revenue, attract new golfers and increase visitor numbers.
Sam Torrance, who will be a key member of Paul McGinley's backroom team at Gleneagles, welcomed the initiative.
"It's fantastic to see such as large proportion of tickets going to clubs across Scotland, giving the chance for club members to be part of what will be an amazing home crowd at Gleneagles," he said.
"The practice days are also a fantastic spectacle and I'm sure those youngsters and volunteers attending will savour the experience and inspire them to stay involved in the game of golf with the chance to see the world's best players in action."
Cabinet secretary for Commonwealth Games and Sport, Shona Robison, added: "With The Ryder Cup on the horizon, there has never been a better time for golf clubs across Scotland to raise their ambitions, increase their membership and make new offers to local communities and to visitors.
"The Scottish government is backing this toolkit with Ryder Cup tickets to encourage clubs to capitalise on this great opportunity, leaving a lasting legacy from the Ryder Cup of vibrant clubs and more people enjoying golf."
Hamish Grey, chief executive of the Scottish Golf Union, said: "We were keen to ensure that the Ryder Cup can provide a benefit to Scottish golf at all levels and, through the ideas within the toolkit, we're sure that clubs will make the most of this fantastic opportunity, whether that's through a Ryder Cup theme day for all their members or an open day to attract new members.
"It's also great to see those clubs involved in ClubGolf being rewarded, with the programme now making such a big impact to many clubs across the country, through growing their junior section's membership."
Four clubs across Scotland that run 'the most successful Ryder Cup themed activity during the summer will also win a 3D TV and a visit from the Ryder Cup trophy to their club for a day.
Mike Cantlay, chairman of VisitScotland, lead agency for delivering the 2014 Ryder Cup on behalf of Scotland, said: "The importance of The 2014 Ryder Cup to golf clubs and golf tourism in Scotland cannot be overstated.
"There is no doubt that the week of the Ryder Cup will deliver an influx of golfing visitors to Scotland but it is what we do before, during and after the event that will provide the lasting benefit to our golf industry. The toolkit outlines many ways in which golf clubs can capitalise on this enhanced exposure and benefit for many years to come, ensuring we maintain and build on Scotland's reputation as the 'Home of Golf'."

Why should this be only restricted to Scottish Golf Clubs – are they not still part of the Union – at least until September. Many struggling English, Welsh and Irish clubs would welcome this initiative and it would not only provide funds for individual clubs, but allow 2 members from each to have the wonderful experience of the greatest matchplay tournament in golf.

Perhaps you should be asking your own golf union, or the UK or Welsh governments. Read the article the tickets are being provided by the SCOTTISH Golf Union, the SCOTTISH LGA and the SCOTTISH Government.

The issue begins with Sam Alexander on the Moon, the former home of Uatu, The Watcher, who had recently been murdered. Sam talks to no one in particular, questioning why the Watcher (who knew the future) did not do anything to prevent his own murder. Sam goes on to speak of the current things that have happened in his life; from finding his father, his sister wearing the Black Nova Helmet, losing the house, and getting kicked out of school. He also talks about how he has always been proud of his father; but he doesn't want to follow in his footsteps and not graduate high school. After completing the Watcher shrine, Sam excuses himself and returns back to Earth.
On Earth, Sam confronts Principal Philbin and explains that the reason he had been absent for so long is that he had gotten news about his father and sought him out to try and help him. The Principal feels bad, and allows Sam to return to class. When Sam runs in – he's surprised to see everyone dressed up, unaware (having lost track of time), that it was Halloween. Sam gets a text from someone at The Jean Grey School about hanging out for Halloween. When he arrives, one of the students tells Sam that they had thought they texted Speedball, not Nova. However, they extend the invite to Sam to hang out with them on Halloween. He is joined by Kid Gladiator, Nature Girl, Genesis, and Armor all dressed in various Halloween costumes. They stumble upon some young children who have had their candy stolen by someone. They decide to go after the ones who stole the candy and capture them – forcing them to apologize for their actions.
Elsewhere in space, Sam's father is given a chance to send a hologram communication back to Earth; only to find the home that they once lived in is now empty!
When Sam gets home, his mother tells him that Captain America has called and wants Sam to come over to Avenger's Mansion immediately!

ROME, APRIL 24, 2004 (Zenit.org).- Here is the text of an address delivered by Bishop Elio Sgreccia, vice president of the Pontifical Academy of Life, at the international congress "Life-Sustaining Treatments and Vegetative State: Scientific Advances and Ethical Dilemmas," held here last month.
* * *
"The Subject in Vegetative State: For a Personalistic View"
Bishop Elio Sgreccia
Vice President of the Pontifical Academy of Life
Emeritus Professor of Bioethics
Catholic University Medical School
Member of the National Bioethics Committee of Italy
The aim of my paper is to outline the condition of the persistent vegetative state beginning with the analysis specific to philosophical anthropology and, more precisely, beginning with the concept of the human person.
The underlying question, and the one to which this paper seeks to give an answer, is the following: Is the human subject who is in a persistent vegetative state a living human person or a corpse?
In simpler terms: Is this subject, who is able to receive nourishment and to breathe but is incapable of having mentally connoted conscious relationships, still a body animated by a spirit? Can an organic, vegetative life exist in the human subject without there being the presence of the spirit as well?
In order to be able to engage in this analysis more effectively it is necessary, in my opinion, to address three assertions:
a) Man is a unitary but at the same time a compound being; his components are the spiritual soul and the material body and as such he is defined as a "person."
In classical, medieval and also modern philosophy, reference is made to the material body and the spiritual soul, but today in the biomedical sciences, and in particular in the neurosciences, the terms "mind" and "brain" are more frequently employed.
These two modalities are not equivalent because whereas the phrase "body-soul" refers to the concreteness of the individual being, to substance, to being, the phrase "mind-body" refers to function and is thus reductive. One can think that the mind does not express its function in the fetus or in the child or in the sleeping person, but this does not mean that these individuals do not have a spiritual soul.
b) The unity of the spiritual soul with the body is of a substantial (and not accidental) character, and is such that whereas the soul is able to live and to operate separately from the body as well, the body receives existence, that is to say life, from the soul. In relation to the spiritual soul the body does not have its own existence. The unity of the person lies in this fact: There is a single existence for these two components.
c) In the living human being there are not different kinds of souls: one vegetative, one sensory, and one rational; instead, the rational soul is responsible for all the functions. Thus the personal being is unitary in the sense that the self invests the whole of the corporeal existence. Even when rationality is impeded this does not mean that the rational soul is not present in a person who is still biologically alive.
In setting out these steps I follow the anthropological approach which, beginning with Albert the Great and Thomas Aquinas,1 and going beyond the Aristotelian vision and especially the vision connected with the Aristotelian philosophy of Arab culture (Averroës), was adopted both in the field of Catholic theological anthropology and in the field of ontologically based personalism.2
Such personalism rejects both the dualism of a Platonic kind and the dualism of a Cartesian kind, and also rejects Marxism, which expresses itself today primarily in materialist approaches.
In contrary fashion, personalism emphasizes the unity of the person as regards the relationship between the spiritual soul and the body by affirming that in the person there is a "dual unity" because the body receives "being," "subsisting," from the spiritual soul.
The body has the poverty of not being able to exist on its own; instead, it exists as a human body because of the existing that is conferred upon it by the spiritual soul. It is precisely this step that is the first step in my analysis.
The human person in his or her living unity
In order to adequately understand the anthropological structure of the human person we need to refer to two kinds of relationships that are defined and used in classical and medieval philosophy: the relationship between matter and form (the ilemorphic approach) and the relationship between essence and existence ("essentia et esse").
Experience offers us the first fact that enables us to know that the individual man has a material body, capable of development and decay like every other living organism, the outcome of different organs and apparatuses and marvelously structured according to what the biological sciences have analyzed with their increasing knowledge.
In this body a spiritual soul shows that it is present and operative; differently from what happens in the organisms of other living species, this spiritual soul is capable of immaterial operations: the intellect, freedom and moral conscience.
From this observation of such operations according to the principle "operari sequitur esse et huic proportionatur" [activity follows from being and is proportioned to it] we may conclude that the spiritual soul is immaterial, although it uses the body, and is thus immortal. The spiritual soul is not only the principle of "animation" of the body but also has an activity that is higher than the body and which transcends the organism and materiality.
The presence in man of the intellect, both as "passive" intellect (understood as a capacity to receive the result of the process of abstraction) and as "active" intellect (understood as a capacity to formulate a concept by abstraction), is a sufficient proof to demonstrate, following Thomas Aquinas, that in the spiritual soul there are activities "cui non communicat corpus" [in which the body does not share] that are higher than the dynamisms of the brain and the senses.
This conclusion, which acts to complete Aristotelian thought,3 leads us to conclude that the spiritual soul is an immaterial and subsistent substance. It is united to the body from the outset as its animating principle, but its capacity does not stop at this task of animation. Indeed, being spiritual, it continues to exist after the death of the body as well.
From this we may derive the following assertion. As the spiritual soul is called to subsist it cannot come from the bodies of the parents because it cannot come from a biological element; instead, it receives its existence ("esse") from God the Creator, because only the Subsistent Being (God) has existence because of his own being.
For this reason, the "esse" of the spiritual soul, since it cannot come from material corporeity (because what is spiritual cannot come from what is material), can only be created by God. At the same time the soul is created to be united to the body and to communicate existence to the body. Just as every form defines the matter, the structure, of a body, so the spiritual soul defines and structures the body and makes it human.
The simultaneousness of the creation of the soul with the conception of the body is a consequence that St. Thomas did not directly affirm — believing as he did that a certain development of the body was necessary for the infusion of the soul — but this truth (today recognized by specialists) is more consistent in the context of his thought and his metaphysical principles.4
Above all else it is required by the knowledge of biology and genetics that demonstrate a very specific organizational "form" of the embryo from the first moment of conception. Compared to other forms, the human soul has specific to it the fact of being subsistent in its being and of communicating to the body the being that is specific to the body.5
This "poverty" of the body, which receives existence ("esse") from the spiritual soul, ends up by being wealth because human corporeity is thus realized as an epiphany and language of the spirit. And in every one of its acts it becomes the bearer of a higher meaning, it reveals the dignity that comes to it from a spiritual and immortal soul. Here, medicine has a point that is one of the fundamental cardinal points of its epistemological and ethical status.
The union of the spiritual soul with the body
The spiritual soul has a dual tie with the body: one belonging to the order of essence and one belonging to the order of existence.
In the order of essence, according to classical language the soul is "forma corporis" [the form of the body], that is to say it (the human soul) makes of the body human corporeity, which is a corporeity different from that of any other living thing.
To employ more modern language, one would say that the spiritual soul is a "self" together with the body, which reveals all the richness of spirituality, and such spirituality is expressed in every one of its actions: in movement, in smiling, in pain and in speech.
That this essential value is recognized as a substantial form from the moment of conception is the logical consequence of the fact that the human individual is constituted as an "unum" [unit], indeed as an "unus" [one], from that moment, and during development conserves his organic unity and his unity as an organism throughout the whole of that development. "That self," in "that body," maintains that unity inside, outside, and diachronically in, the same individual from conception to death.6
One single soul for the functions of life and thought
This assertion is an uncontested cardinal point in Thomistic anthropological thought starting from the heritage received from Albert the Great.7
In Question 76 of the "Summa Theologiae," Part I, St. Thomas addresses the question in two separate articles (III and IV) on the uniqueness of the soul in man and the uniqueness of form.
The two questions are not identical. He thought that the uniqueness of the spiritual soul also subsists in the (successive) plurality of forms. Aristotle had stated in relation to the development of the embryo that the human embryo lives first a vegetative life, then a sensory life, and that finally the intellect of divine origin enters (by the door — "thürathen").
Many contemporaries of St. Thomas even argued in favor of the co-presence of different "forms of animation" in man after the development of the rational soul as well.8
Among the ancient Greek Fathers, there had been, on the other hand, the well-known doctrinal point of St. Gregory of Nyssa according to which the rational soul, with all its perfections is present from the first moment of generation, and with the advance of the formation of the body the various activities of the spirit are gradually manifested.
St. Albert the Great had concluded that in the human being there is a succession of forms and vital principles and that the most perfect spiritual soul, when it arrives, absorbs and takes the place of the inferior forms.
However, St. Thomas,9 who remains receptive to the Aristotelian position and requires the advent of the spiritual soul prior to the formation of the organism, asserts that:
a) the soul is a unique substance that has different (intellectual, sensory and vegetative) powers, and that as a substantial form it constitutes a single entity. If there were more than one soul there would be more than one form and thus more than one entity within the same individual-man;
b) The spiritual soul, as a substantial form, does not absorb the vegetative and sensory soul, but because it is already, as "actus corporis" [the "act" of the body], supplied with the capacity to express vegetative and sensory life, on its arrival, once it is present in the body of the embryo, it transforms its total essence and makes it human.
With this position St. Thomas aims to uphold the unity of the person. One should not think (and this may be said in parentheses) that he thereby admits the lawfulness of abortion, because in destroying the preparatory material moment in the creative design of God, one always commits a grave offense against God.10
Conclusions as regards the persistent vegetative state
Thomistic thought on the unity of the form of the human body, and thus on the unity of soul, which was opposed at the outset, was adopted by Catholic anthropology as regards its strong affirmation of the unity of the person, which excludes any form of dualism.
Such thought shares the same ground as ontological personalism, which is founded, that is to say, on the essence of the human individual and on his or her unitary reality.
The conclusion that is offered by such thought, which has remained characteristic of, and specific to, the philosophical anthropology of Christian personalism, can be formulated in the following way employing the words of S. Vanni Rovighi: "The human soul, which is an intellective soul, is thus the soul that gives to man his being a body — specifically in this way and made in this way — which is living, feeling and rational."11
To come to our question and our case, if we adopt this unitary anthropology the body in a persistent vegetative state, which has vitality at the level of an organism, albeit of a merely vegetative nature, is united to the rational soul, the only soul that makes the body living.
There cannot be a vegetative vitality that is separate from the unique vital principle exercised by the only soul that exists in man, the intellectual or spiritual soul, whichever term one chooses.
Only the loss of the vital unity of the organism can be taken as the sign of death.
The conclusion that has been arrived at involves a brief reflection on the concept of the death of the human individual.
Given as known the distinction between ontological death (the separation of the soul from the body), a reality that cannot be observed directly, and clinical death as a set of signs that provide the moral certainty that death has really taken place in an individual, when it come to the signs that allow the ascertaining of death from a clinical point of view three different positions must be recorded:
1) A minority position that in specific terms wants to argue that clinical death coincides with the irreversible cessation of the higher functions of the brain and thus with the loss of relational life, a fact connected neurologically with the compromising of relational life, for which reason it is often designated "cortical death."12
2) On the basis of this position the patient in a persistent vegetative state, whose possible recovery is excluded, should be held to be dead. This is the position that we excluded with the clarifications presented above.
A second position that is diametrically opposed requires for a definition of clinical death so-called biological death, the cessation of every internal biological activity in the body of the individual and in particular the cessation of the circulation of the blood (cardiological death).
In definitive terms, this position is encountered implicitly in those who argue that the so-called death of the whole encephalon, also known wrongly as "brain death,"13 is insufficient.
However, in practical terms this criterion should involve a definitive cessation of the heartbeat. This empirical observation used in cases of deaths in the home, in the street, and outside the context of intensive care, is certainly valid for the ascertaining of death, but it does not allow the transplant of organs.
The possibility and the need to use resuscitation has made possible a third approach which is that known as "brain death," but which should more properly be known as "encephalic death" because it refers to the whole encephalon.
Today, this line is followed not only by the Italian law on transplants (18.8.1993) but by almost all laws and also by the practice followed in relation to transplants.
This criterion is explained not in the sense that one wants to identify the part (the encephalon) with the whole (the body separate from the soul) but in the sense that once the functions of the entire encephalon have been irreversibly lost, including those of the encephalic trunk, which as one knows governs the cardio-respiratory function, the whole living organism loses a unifying principal of life that defines it as a living organism, even though with the help of machines which substitute spontaneous breathing and use the residual vitality of the heart muscle one can maintain artificial circulation for a certain time in order to keep an organ to be transplanted undamaged.
During the address of the Holy Father to those taking part in the congress on organ transplants of 29 August 2000 this criterion was accepted with the following words:
"It is a well-known fact that for some time certain scientific approaches to ascertaining death have shifted the emphasis from the traditional cardio-respiratory signs to the so-called 'neurological' criterion.
"Specifically, this consists in establishing, according to clearly determined parameters commonly held by the international scientific community, the complete and irreversible cessation of all brain activity (in the cerebrum, cerebellum and brain stem). This is then considered the sign that the individual organism has lost its integrative capacity. With regard to the parameters used today for ascertaining death — whether the 'encephalic' signs or the more traditional cardio-respiratory signs — the Church does not make technical decisions. She limits herself to the Gospel duty of comparing the data offered by medical science with the Christian understanding of the unity of the person, bringing out the similarities and the possible conflicts capable of endangering respect for human dignity.
"Here it can be said that the criterion adopted in more recent times for ascertaining the fact of death, namely the complete and irreversible cessation of all brain activity, if rigorously applied, does not seem to conflict with the essential elements of a sound anthropology.
"Therefore a health-worker professionally responsible for ascertaining death can use these criteria in each individual case as the basis for arriving at that degree of assurance in ethical judgment which moral teaching describes as 'moral certainty.' This moral certainty is considered the necessary and sufficient basis for an ethically correct course of action. Only where such certainty exists, and where informed consent has already been given by the donor or the donor's legitimate representatives, is it morally right to initiate the technical procedures required for the removal of organs for transplant."14
The Charter for Health Care Workers had for that matter adopted this criterion, which makes the transplant of organs something that can be practiced.15
The persistent vegetative state and the ascertainment of the neurological death of the whole encephalon
It seems to me, however, that the difference that exists between so-called cortical death and encephalic death is clear. In the first case the organism demonstrates the persistence of a unitary organic life, albeit of a vegetative kind — it is able to breathe autonomously as well, it maintains cardio-circulatory activity, and it is able to be nourished if fed artificially.
In the second case none of these functions is carried out autonomously, respiratory activity is replaced by machines, and as a result cardio-circulatory activity cannot maintain itself except for a short period of time after its autonomous charge of energy has been exhausted.
From the point of view of the personalistic approach, the discriminating criterion between the life and non-life of the human individual is not in itself the function of the encephalon but the unifying principle that vivifies the organism (the soul). This principle of life unity in the adult is ultimately linked to the function of the encephalic trunk and can be controlled with appropriate neurological methods, the control of the evoked potentials or the cerebral flow; whereas in the embryo during the first stages of its development the unity of the organism is activated and maintained by the genome which governs the construction itself of the brain.
For this reason, the ill-founded objection that argues that when one holds the criterion of "encephalic death" to be valid, embryos that do not yet have even a rudimentary form of the cerebral system should be seen as lacking life, has no basis. In the embryo the principle of life (the soul) that defines it as an individualized organism is observable in the unity and the biological function of the genome that governs the progressive development16 of the individual and the formation itself of the central nervous system.
In adults the physiology itself of the nervous system demonstrates that this system has a function of coordination in relation to the other organs and the functions of the whole organism, whereas the respiratory and cardio-circulatory system has the function of transporting the elements needed for nutrition.
All the other systems, such as the endocrinological system, the immunity system, etc., that cooperate and contribute to the vitality and the unity of the organism come anyway in the adult to depend on the central nervous system.
Personally I am convinced that despite the criticisms leveled against the neurological criterion for the ascertaining of death, if observed scrupulously it merits our trust and should not be abandoned in the field of transplants to rely upon the criterion of "cortical death" or to ignore, as some argue, the rigorous observations that it requires because the carrying out of the transplant is said to be a sufficient and proportionate reason for going ahead even in a state of uncertainty.17
Indeed, it should be stressed that in the final analysis the person carrying out the transplant and the specialists of the committees who preside over the ascertaining of death should, when faced with a concrete doubt in an individual concrete case, abstain from declaring the person dead and wait for such certainty to be well founded and morally valid.

All Are Welcome. We Are One
Black, white, yellow, brown, red. Christian, Jew, Muslim, Buddhist, Hindu, Jain, Sikh, Sufi deists, agnostics and everything in between. Men, women, transgenders. Young people, old people.
Those with blue eyes, and those with brown or green. Tall people, short people and those of average size. People who speak our language and those who don't. As a nation, and as a people, we were born to embrace inclusiveness and diversity. It's part of our fiber. It's what makes us one. All are welcome. Everyone has the right to live freely and openly as they choose.
Our only requisite is to do no harm.
Yet, regardless of race, religion, ethnicity, culture, age or gender, I can't think of one person who has not felt discriminated against at some point in their lives. I know. It's not fair.
There will always be some people who will love us or hate us for who we are, who they think we are, or who we're not.
Those people don't represent all. And they certainly don't represent us.
Nonetheless, sometimes we become senseless targets.
Horrific events happen that shake the very essence of what we stand for. How do we respond?
Last night's Tony awards, which came in the wake of the Orlando tragedy embraced both 'the show must go on' tradition, along with moving statements of grief and solidarity for the victims and their families – and some good reminders for us all.
Frank Langella ('The Father') reminded us, "When something bad happens we have three choices. We can let it define us, we can let it destroy us or we can let it strengthen us.'
In accepting his award, Lin-Manuel Miranda ('Hamilton'), delivered a sonnet he had written, which in part says, "Senseless acts of tragedy remind us that nothing here is promised — not one day. "Love is love; cannot be killed or swept aside." ….. "Hope and love last longer, and love is love is love is love."
If we grow stronger, hold each other dearer, and stand together, hate can never kill us.

A new study has shown that if Americans reduced their salt intake by half a
teaspoon each day, it would result in 6% fewer new cases of heart disease, and 3% fewer deaths. Although it's been known for some time that increased sodium intake is a leading cause of hypertension leading to heart disease, salt consumption is up about 50% since the 1970s.
The average American eats 10-12 grams of salt daily, or up to 4,800 milligrams of sodium. The recommended maximum level is about half of this.
One major problem with reducing salt consumption is the amount of processed food products that Americans eat, that contain high levels of salt and Monosodium Glutamate, rather than the salt shaker on the dining room table.
It's another reason to eat less processed food, and more fresh food cooked at home.

Maintenance of Forklift Trucks
We are all aware of the importance of the forklift trucks, its uses and the capabilities that are associated with it, making the work of workers easy and extremely efficient when it comes to carrying heavy load and components. In this article, we will learn what the different types of forklift trucks that are currently used in the market and the safety and precautions that come with it. Owning a forklift truck is just a matter of one-time investment, but what follows is the toughest job, not only for forklift trucks but all other machines- the maintenance of a particular machine. So, in this article, we will also talk about the best steps and the procedures that one needs to take in order to keep their trucks in the best possible condition.
Let us now take a look at the different types of trucks available to us.
- Articulated Counterbalance Trucks
- Guided Very Narrow Aisle Trucks
- Omnidirectional Trucks
- UL 558 Safety Rated Trucks
- UL 583 Safety Rated Trucks
- US Military 10K-AT Trucks
- Automated Forklift Trucks
These are some of the most commonly used forklifts trucks in the world. The first three of them are common in all the warehouses where the big components and loads need to carry from place to place. The UL-series trucks are only made for industrial purposes and are capable of lifting heavier loads than the standard forklift trucks. The US Military forklift trucks are only available to the military people and are restricted for either common or industrial use and is used to carry heavy weapons and their components. The automated forklift trucks are a separate breed where all the controls are not manually fed but automatically controlled, thanks to the built-in censors of truck. From checking the weight of the load to lifting the fork automatically, it just requires a set path where it has to carry the load and everything will be done automatically.
Having discussed a lot about the different types and structures of the forklift trucks, let us come to the important and the crucial portion of our discussion- about the maintenance of the trucks.
The safety is one of the most important things that one has to know before knowing how to maintain the truck. The standards of the safety in a forklift truck include the important ANSI-B56 and the stewardship has also been passed on to the Industrial Truck Standard Development Foundation, out of which, other safety standards have also been implemented by the Occupational Safety and Health Administration and the Healthy and Safety Executive.
The driver safety also has many stages where a driver is specifically trained all the basic of the forklift trucks, its working principle and how to manage the truck. Right from maneuvering the truck to lifting the weight on the fork and carrying it around, there are different institutions in United States, United Kingdom and Australia.
Now, talking about the safety of the forklift truck, one must ensure that it is taken care of in the best possible way to maximize its efficiency and the life span of the truck.
- Only qualified engineers should be permitted to work on the components and the parts of the truck.
- One must always wear the proper protective gears while handling all the dangerous components of the truck.
- All the sources of power generating electricity should be cut off before accessing and analyzing all the electrical components of the truck.
- The forklift should be blocked correctly before removing the wheels.
- The important thing about handling the components is the fact that the work area should be kept well clean and lit.
- The components of any machines use oil or other lubricants to keep the surfaces free of any friction. So one must ensure that any spilled oil should be cleaned immediately to prevent any mishaps.
- The removed tools and all the parts should be installed properly, checked and washed before starting the engine.
- Batteries form one of the most important components of all the machines, being the main and the primary source of the power. One must ensure that the battery is taken utmost care while handling it.
- Batteries contain a positive and a negative terminal which is extremely sensitive to metals. The slightest touch of a reactive metal can ignite a spark in the flow of ions within, which can give rise to a fire as well. So ensure that you keep all the hoists and the metal chains away from the battery while handling them.
- The battery top should be covered with an insulating material to prevent any excess flow of charges.
Final Words
These conclude all the essential details that are required to be followed for maximum protection of the forklift trucks. One must ensure to follow these steps in the right to get the best out of their trucks.

The 2009kessokretexturefix.zip file you have requested: Ship Textures / Kessok / 2009KessokRetextureFIX - 12.56mb is not available. Perhaps try browsing all files for the game Star Trek: Bridge Commander and upload any files you want to share or are missing. This is the only information we could locate:
It turns out several .tga files in the original retexture mod were corrupted somehow, I've re-saved all the old files for the KessokLight (KessokHeavy had no problems) and now there should be no problems.Also, there is a jpeg of the file that was causing most of the problems in case it is still corrupted.
We recommend you return to the download list and browse the links from there. If the problem persists, contact us with the details.

There are a lot of misconceptions about writing jobs online. Here, we'll take a look at three of the most common so you know exactly what you're getting into if this is a work-from-home opportunity that interests you.
I. Writing Jobs Online Are Scams; They're Not Real Opportunities
This is perhaps one of the biggest myths. Although, it's pretty easy to understand why. There are a lot of unscrupulous people who take advantage of the fact that many people are desperate to find legitimate work-from home jobs.
But, there are real, bona fide writing jobs that you can do online – from the comfort of home, in your pajamas. I know; I do it every day.
But, you do have to know how to spot the scams. One of the easiest ways to do it is if they ask for money upfront. Usually, this will be in the form of paying for a membership to get job leads, or subscribing to some type of job lead databank.
Why You Should Never, Ever Pay for Leads for Possible Writing Jobs Online
Don't fall for it, don't fall for it. I've been a freelance writer since 1993 and have never, ever paid for a job lead – ever. Legitimate work-from-home writing jobs can be found all over the net – for free. In fact, legitimate companies pay you to write for them because your content helps to drive more traffic (and sales) to their site.
They don't have to make their money off of you, the writer. They're making their money from advertisers and/or the product/services they're selling on their website.
II. Writing Jobs Online Don't Pay a Lot
Again, it's easy to see why this myth exists. When you see ads on bid-for pay sites like the following,, yeah, you'd surmise that this type of freelance writing is a waste of time.
Seeking writer to produce 10 articles on "how to make wire jewelry." Articles must be at least 400 words. Rate $1 article. Must be in perfect English. Must be original; will check via Copyscape.
But it's not true. Writing jobs online rates can be quite high – if you know where to look and how to market for them.
III. You Must Have Experience to Apply for Writing Jobs Online
This is perhaps the biggest myth. In fact, online writing is much easier to get into than more traditional mediums like newspaper or magazine writing. This is because the need for (SEO) content is so great now.
Unlike traditional mediums, you don't have to have samples from this publication or a degree in that discipline. As long as you can prove that you can write, adhere to deadlines and are priced competitively, you can start landing writing jobs online; no experience needed.

I'm glad to say that temperatures are warm enough for me to wear my afro without any regret or fear for breakage. I'm just as equally happy because what I am wearing in this post consists mainly of stylish second-hand clothing with a dash of sass.
On that note, let us start this year's first blog post with a fashionable one, shall we?
|Throw on a hat if the weather decides to mess with your 'fro!
I got the mini bomber jacket from an online website that offers other people used items (sometimes for free). You can sell and buy things from this service, how great is that?
Etsy is a similar platform, the only difference is it's more international. If you're lucky you'll find great clothes like the used mom jeans I'm wearing. To spice things up I gave them a DIY destroyed look and combined the look with skin-colored fishnets.
Another great place to find unique sustainable fashion would be our local HUMANA shops here in Vienna. But if you live in a European country you might be lucky enough to have one in your area.
|Blouse with flounce sleeves purchased from HUMANA
Clothes make people, but clothes are also made by people. My preloved wardrobe is growing more and more and I couldn't be happier.
But more on that in another post, which I will completely dedicate to the reason why I support sustainable fashion!

In her article, Juliette Fairley discusses what she calls "sudden wealth syndrome," a problem that is most commonly faced by entertainers, professional sports figures and winners of the lottery. Fairley explains,
"Those that plan, start saving early and understand debt and equity can also experience sudden wealth with the money they accumulate," Lynch told Private Wealth. Sudden wealth syndrome is a term loosely used to describe the psychological issues underlying the experience of receiving an influx of new or sudden money and the tendency to overspend it.
"They lose it all and we hear these stories in the news," Lynch said. "It comes down to bad decision making and not having a holistic plan in place."
For example, one-third of people who received an inheritance had negative savings within two years of the event, according to Federal Reserve and Bureau of Labor Statistics data.
"The worst thing you can do is to ignore the anxiety and the paralysis through analysis associated with sudden wealth syndrome," said Lynch. "The second thing you don't want to do is to follow your gut without sound advice."

text: It's the time of the year when parents are busy looking for Christmas toys. I always have a hard time looking for them since my daughter is getting big and she knows what she likes and what she doesn't like. I like surprises and so does my daughter and that's why I didn't even bother to ask her what she wants for Christmas. One time I went to her playroom and looked for something that is missing and still I don't have any idea what to give her. When my friend called last night, she asked me about what I would like to give to our daughter and I told her I'm still thinking about it. She advised me to check online for the Top Christmas Toys because for sure I can find something there. This is where I found this awesome place that has a wide variety of Top Toys List and I'm so excited because it really helped me find what to give our daughter. When I told my hubby about it, he was so happy and checked the place out and we both agreed to get this Barbie Sisters Cruise Ship. I remember my daughter has been talking about Barbie for the last couple of weeks. I was so glad to have found this awesome site where they have the latest toys that children will love to have this Christmas. I also found an awesome game pad called LeapPad at a very affordable price. I have been looking to buy this kind of pad for our little princess since last year and I think this is the perfect time to buy one for her. I can't wait to tell my friends to check out this great place and I'm sure they will be very happy and excited like we are after found some great gifts.
