How long is a long term investment? 3, 5, 7, 10, 20, 30, 40 years? Every time I ask a friend the answer varies from 3 to 40 years. Then I would ask, how long do you want your marriage or relationship to last? All would reply Forever of course! If one person can keep an investment FOREVER, he or she will be rich and happy. Providing nothing tragic happens of course…..
Long term investment is not a simple game of quick growth get rich scheme. None of us can read the futures and determine the exact cost of a company price in the next 5, 10, 15 20 years. Many young investors reckons they can calculate the potential growth and predict the next drop or rise from historical trends but still cannot read the future for a long term. End of the day none of these young investors I know are millionaires. Yes, there are plenty of success stories on Google, but no one blogs or shares about the ones who fail which most likely be 1000 times more in proportion.
Finding a quality long term share is like finding a long term partner. You need to fall in love first with the share. It must be a share you see around and use everyday. A share you trust with all your heart which will be still standing tall and successful when you retire. You must be compromising and bear with the ups and downs of the company business like in any relationship. If you walk out when times are bad, then you don't show loyalty and should not be together in the first place. No one can predict the future, but if you trust your company you invest in bad times, you should reinvest more time and money to make the relationship better. So when shares drop you should buy more if you strongly believe the company will be around when you retire.
One key areas of long term investment is the DRIP (Dividend Reinvestment Plans) equivalent to having kids in a relationship. Try to avoid spending and withdrawing the dividends, instead reinvest it into the plan to grow the investment further. Its like a relationship where you need to invest your time with your growing kids for a better future. Please see the example on how DRIP can grow your money faster.
Remember when you invest your money in equity shares there is a risk of 100% loss. Leaving your money in a bank for interest generation bears no risk to the original amount, except to inflation of course in the country of the currency origin.
I share this because my dad left his money in the bank generating interest for 20 years and when I did a simple inflation calculation on the currency of origin, he in fact have lost about 20% of the value despite earning 3% a year. If he invested the amount in coca cola, he would have almost tripled his invested amount.
As Warren Buffett once said:- "The Rear View Mirror is clearer than the front view mirror". I translate that to:- "Learn from the past to make the future a better place, and enjoy the journey".
Finally what are my long term investment?
Apple, Microsoft, Shell, Disney and Unilever

Ergonomic computer chair. If you want an honest to goodness ergonomic computer chair, you have to look for specialized chairs which are designed to give its user comfort and ease when working with a computer. By specialized, I mean there is no other use for this chair but for long term computer use alone. They are not like task chairs which can double up as desk chairs and vice versa. While you can use any other chair for computer work, true ergonomic computer chairs only allow its user to work with a PC while sitting on it. It is characterized with heightened legs and a lounge style seat. Sitting on this kind of position promotes eye level alignment between you and the computer monitor. If you see a true ergonomic computer chair, you may note that it has a futuristic look. It is also not commonly used around offices but are rather common in gaming rooms.
You can find task chairs in almost all offices all over the world. These are very common and are the standard choice to fit uniform office desks especially those with a computer. They can also be adjusted in many ways so that they fit the body size of their user. These are also one of the cheapest kind of chairs. Standard task chairs can be adjusted up and down using a lever located beneath the seat, which makes it suitable for many users of different heights. Models that are more expensive that standard task chairs can be adjusted in more ways.

Ever since the tragic incident involving the Costa Concordia, there has been a lot of talk about where any lawsuits would have to be decided. Many lawyers not familiar with maritime law were unaware that in passenger cases, the passenger ticket must be consulted immediately since it contains many time constrains and other limitations, including limiting the place where the lawsuit can be filed. In the case of the Costa Concordia, the ship is operated by the Costa Cruise Line Company out of Italy. The passenger tickets for the Costa Concordia provides for an Italian forum with the applicability of Italian law. This is because the Costa Concordia did not start or end its cruise in a United States port. Otherwise, United States law would govern, and the lawsuit would have to be filed in Broward County Florida, according to the ticket.
Several cases were filed here in Miami, Florida, which have been met with defense motions to dismiss based on forum non conveniens, and improper venue selection due to the passenger ticket requiring suit to be filed in Italy. One of those cases, Scimone v. Carnival Corporation at el, was filed in the Miami-Dade County Circuit Court. Since Carnival was added as a Defendant, and there are other Defendants other than Costa, the Plaintiff's chose to try to file suit in Miami, Florida. They too were met with a motion to dismiss, but in this particular case the Defendants took a chance and removed the case to the Federal District Court here in the Southern District of Florida. The Plaintiffs moved to remand the case claiming that the Federal Court did not have jurisdiction.
The Federal District judge entered an order granting the motion to remand the case to the State Court. The reason the case was remanded to the State Court is important. Some have believed that the mere fact the Federal judge remanded the case to the State Court was a determination by the Federal judge that Miami is in fact an acceptable forum to hear these cases. However, the Federal judge did not reach that ruling. The Federal judge did not address the Defendants motion to dismiss the case based on form non-conveniens, or the argument that the forum selection clause in the Costa ticket requires suit to be brought in Italy. Instead, the Federal District Court limited its decision to remand the case to a jurisdictional basis. The Defendants had removed the case from the State Court to the Federal Court under the Class Action Fairness Act of 2005. This statutory law allows for the removal of "mass actions", which is a civil action "in which monetary relief claims of a 100 or more persons are proposed to be tried jointly on the ground that the Plaintiffs' claims all have the common questions of law or fact." 28 U.S.C. § 1332 (d)(11)(B)(i)
As for the Class Action Fairness Act being a basis for the Federal Court to have jurisdiction, the Federal Judge ruled that the lawsuit did not have 100 separate different Plaintiffs. In addition, the Plaintiffs did not propose to have all the cases tried jointly. Therefore, this statue did not apply and did not provide a valid basis to remove the case to the Federal Court.
An interesting point about the decision that the CAFA did not provide a basis for removal is that the court had to determine whether the Plaintiffs had engaged in "artful pleading" to deliberately avoid Federal jurisdiction, and if so, whether that was a basis to apply the CAFA in this particular case. The court noted a diversion of opinion among the District Courts on whether artful pleading can avoid the CAFA Federal jurisdiction. This particular judge agreed with the courts that concluded Plaintiffs may skirt the removal under the CAFA and mass actions by artful pleading. Thus, removal was not appropriate under the CAFA.
The other basis the Defendant's argued to support Federal Court Jurisdiction in this removal case was 28 U.S.C. § 1331. This involves a "federal question" issue. They argued that federal questions involving foreign policy was enough to create federal subject matter jurisdiction in this case. Since the court concluded it was not a case involving the federal government of Italy, and there was insufficient interests of Italy to support finding subject matter jurisdiction based on federal question jurisdiction due to foreign relations, this basis of jurisdiction was also rejected.
The court concluded there was insufficient foreign interests to give the Federal Court subject matter jurisdiction. This decision is interesting, and resulted in very good language for the Plaintiffs. In determining the foreign interests were insufficient, this federal judge found that Italy did not have a strong federal interest in the case. It concluded the case was about international and United States passengers who were injured on a cruise ship that was operated by Costa, a private company, and whether they properly adhered to safety standards or committed negligent acts. The courts concluded that "U.S. – Italian relationships will not be rocked if a Florida State Court judge awards money damages because an Italian Corporation was negligent."
Accordingly, the Federal District judge rejected both arguments by the Defendants as to the subject matter jurisdiction of the Federal Court, supported. Accordingly, an order to remand the case to the state court was entered by the District Court judge. Plaintiff's are back in State Court.
It still remains to be seen what the State Court will do with the motions to dismiss the case on the basis of forum non conveniens and the forum selection clause in the passenger tickets. Defendants must be very careful when removing a case to Federal Court not to waive these arguments by the filing of notice of removal before presenting these arguments to the court. Sometimes a strategic choice can backfire. Only time will tell if that will happen in this particular case.
Our maritime firm is based in Miami, Florida, the cruise ship capital of the world. We represent passengers and crewmembers harmed at sea, and handle all type of boating accidents.

Low Rates with Online Payday Loans
Posted by amimo on May 25, 2014 in Uncategorized | ∞
I am not looking forward to doing this, but I think that I will have to get a payday loan in the near future. I just don't see any other way to pay my bills. I have luckily never been in an desperate enough situation, financially, to have to consider a payday loan before in the past. But the stakes are different now, and I am looking for online payday loans in the uk that carry relatively low rates with them. I am sure that all of the rates are fairly high, when compared to other forms if loans, but that is typically due to the short term of the loan.

Schlenker Chiropractic accepts most major medical insurances as well as all Motor vehicle and Worker's Compensation insurances. As a service to our patients we will confirm benefits prior to treatment and send in the claims to your insurance company.
Payment is required at the time we provide services to you. If your insurance includes Chiropractic massage therapy we require you to pay any remaining deductible and the co-payment, which is the amount not covered by your insurance company, at the time we provide service to you. For your convenience, we accept cash, check, Visa, MasterCard, and Discover.
We cannot emphasize too strongly that the extent of your insurance benefits is a contract between you, your employer and your insurance company. Schlenker Chiropractic is not a party to that contract. As your Chiropractic and Massage healthcare provider, our relationship is only with you, not your insurance company. While the filing of insurance claims is a courtesy that we extend our clients, all charges are your responsibility from the date that the services were rendered. We will help you by processing your insurance claim form and sending it in promptly. However, we highly recommend that you know your specific Chiropractic and Massage Therapy benefits before your care begins. This can be done by calling your insurance company, as you are financially responsible for any of the charges not covered by your insurance.

Let's just put it this way: I really could not possibly care less about 1) race cars or cars in general 2) race car drivers or 3) car racing - yet this doc made me, for it's length, care about nothing else. This one completely swept me away into the world of Ayrton Senna and when it ended, I had a tear in my eye. Great stuff!

Senior Technical Specialists in Oil, Gas and Energy
Training for Success
Our recruitment consultants train to understand the requirements and language of their specific discipline. Petroplan take time to impart this knowledge to all consultants be they new or experienced. We can reach the right senior technical specialists for employers quickly.
Strong Heritage in the Technical Energy Disciplines
The focus on technical experience started with our founders, John Reeder and Graham Pyle, who at the inception of Petroplan were senior technical specialists. Their discipline of project services and attention to project delivery has had a profound effect on the culture of the business. We pride ourselves on building networks of experts that we can introduce to our clients and who can refer talented professionals for interesting careers across the globe.
The term 'subject matter expertise' is a phrase frequently used today but at Petroplan our consultants truly are experts in their field. They do not dilute their focus with allied professions. It can take years to build a robust candidate network for a discipline along with regional knowledge is often related to a trade or specialism. This is captured using technology so even if our consultants decide to leave the company, the intelligence remains in the business. Therefore benchmarking and connections are still robust.
Technical Disciplines
There are many but our key areas of expertise include:
- Wells and Drilling
- Engineering – Mechanical, inspection and electrical
- Commissioning
- Project services and management
- Subsurface – Geology and Geophysics
- Subsea and Marine
- Oil manufacturing and field services
Key Geographies
Petroplan is a global organisation and we have offices in the major oil and gas hubs. We know that different areas depending on their market maturity demand different skill sets. For example, we have helped companies find: downstream petrochemical engineers at South Africa's refineries, Drilling supervisors in Egypt, LNG engineers in the US or Commissioning engineers in Canada.
Our Process
We generally follow a 10 step process to ensure we capture the client's brief, identify target candidates, fulfill the process of verification and shortlisting through to interview and offer management. These are as follows:
- Work with the client contact to understand the requirements of project goals from the outset
- Undertake market mapping of the candidate talent pool for the industry and skill set
- Identify suitable candidates against key agreed job specification objectives
- Approach and initial engagement with targeted professionals
- Rigorous candidate screening, reference and qualification checking
- Interviews with the agency team
- Delivery of the client shortlist
- Organisation of client facing interviews
- Offer management with total compensation in mind
- Onboarding management
The Importance of the People as well as the Process
In order to adhere to our quality control procedures we are rigorous in our approach. However, working in the oil and gas industry is a lifestyle choice for many.
Our recruitment consultants are very adept at assessing candidate's motivations and investment in a career in this industry. In fact in one of our recent surveys on candidate sentiment, many professionals still talk about the lifestyle being a key attraction to remaining in the sector.
We find people who will make a difference to your business. This is because we are committed to ensuring these technical specialists will flourish by doing interesting work that utilises their knowledge and fulfils their aspirations. We also determine if a senior technical specialist wishes to fulfil a management position or prefers to remain dedicated to the technical application of their discipline. Not everyone wants to become a manager.

- "Soldiers of the Rebel Alliance, this is our most desperate hour. You are our only hope."
- ―Gial Ackbar
Rebel troopers, also known as Rebel fleet troopers, Rebel soldiers or Alliance troopers, were the front-line soldiers of both the early rebel movement and later, the Rebel Alliance in the early war against the Galactic Empire and later the Galactic Civil War. Initially formed from loosely connected resistance cells, the leadership of Mon Mothma saw them become an impressively armed and trained galaxy-spanning infantry.
With the proclamation of the New Order 19 years before the Battle of Yavin, discontinued military equipment from the former Grand Army of the Republic often wound up in the hands of rebelling factions in a variety of star systems.[23] With many resenting Galactic Emperor Sheev Palpatine's expansionist policies into the galaxies periphery, many came to form loose, unorganized cells against the Emperor's reign. Cham Syndulla's Free Ryloth movement[24] epitomized the ferocity of early resistance movements four years into Imperial rule, while smaller actions orchestrated by groups such as Berch Teller's rebel cell and the Corellian Resistance[25] continued to prove a nuisance to Imperial authorities well into the Age of the Empire.[23]
At least five years before the Battle of Yavin, a loose rebel network came into existence that opposed the Galactic Empire on a near galactic scale, however it was unorganized, with many groups not knowing the existence of one another in order to ensure each groups individual survival in case one was compromised. One group known as Phoenix Cell utilized CR90 corvettes and a Republic-era Pelta-class frigate along with RZ-1 A-wing interceptors that would continue to be used by rebel forces well into the Galactic Civil War, while soldiers wore uniforms that were visually similar to those worn by later resistance fighters.[26][7]
With the formation of the Alliance to Restore the Republic, rebel troopers would see wide use and variations in armor and equipment. Being deployed on worlds as far flung as Sullust,[5] Coyerti,[5] and Haidoral Prime,[5] as well as participating in major conflicts such as the Battle of Hoth[17] and the Battle of Endor.[20]
Rebel troopers were organized into various units such as fire teams of two individuals or squads of four when necessary, and were often put under the command of Generals such as Crix Madine or Carlist Rieekan. Grand strategy was dictated by Alliance High Command, which had the final say in all joint military operations.[20] Troopers could be placed under infantry units such as the Twenty-First or Thirty-Second Infantry, the aquatic Sixty-Eighth Infantry or vanguard Sixty-First Mobile Infantry. While the Alliance Special Forces, such as Pathfinders, was composed of the best soldiers in the Rebellion often pulled from the Rebel trooper ranks, and were utilized and regarded as highly trained and organized commandos.[5]
Uniforms and EquipmentEdit
Being deployed on numerous worlds across the galaxy, the standard rebel troopers uniform and equipment varied depending on the environment and mission.[27][11] Unable to finance a standard uniform for the entire army, the Alliance devised a standard look for troopers to identify themselves and improve unit cohesion and morale.[2] Many Rebel troops adopted the uniform of Alderaanian consular security, wearing blue shirts, black combat vests, grey trousers and black calf length boots, along with a distinctive white helmet with a visor above the forehead. This uniform appeared at outposts such as Base One, while a variant was utilized by support crew on Yavin 4, with a similar white helmet design but instead wearing a light brown jumpsuit instead of combat vest and shirt. Officers wore a similar uniform to their trooper counterpart, but instead sported a light brown jacket, shirt and pants along with a brown belt. Those in the Rebel Honor Guard wore dark green, buttoned down jackets with pockets and matching pants and black boots, but had a similar helmet to those of consular security.[1][8]
Troopers on Hoth wore a white or beige shirt and pants, along with matching tan and white caps with ear flaps, and could carry goggles when necessary. Troopers in the field and not in the safety of Echo Base often wore a similar variant as those in the hangar but instead had more of a white and grey coloring, along with white Alliance Cold Weather Backpacks. [17]
Troopers assigned to forest, desert and volcanic worlds often but not always wore a uniform resembling those used by the strike team assembled to take down the Death Star II's shield generator on the forest moon of Endor, with camouflaged green and brown jackets and pants, along with backpacks similar to those worn by troopers on cold worlds but camouflaged green or grey. They could also carry brown sacks, and had a green metal rim circling their helmets. Pathfinders were commandos who utilized this same outfit. Troopers assigned to desert worlds could also wear uniforms similar to troopers on the Tantive IV. Bantha Riders rode banthas and utilized a tan shirt and brown jacket along with a similar helmet worn by troopers on the Tantive IV.[20][11][8]
Rebel pilots often wore an orange jumpsuit along with black boots and gloves, along with a white helmet which could be customized with various insignias and imagery. Rebel pilots often flew BTL-A4 Y-wing assault starfighter/bombers, T-65B X-wing starfighters and A/SF-01 B-wing starfighters.
Rebel troopers often utilized the DH-17 blaster pistol and DL-18 blaster pistol, as well as the A280 blaster rifle or its modified variant the A280C blaster rifle, while the E-17d sniper rifle was used by rebel marksmen. Rebel Vanguards wore a white shirt and black jacket, along with brown pants and black boots, and utilized PLEX rocket launchers to take out heavy targets.[1][20][8][11] Alliance troops also utilized the personal energy shield technology stolen from the Empire to minimize damage from enemy blaster bolts. Often being deployed in the field with limited supplies and armaments, Rebel troopers modified their weapons into multi-purpose weapons, with the development of an insert that allowed soldiers to fire charged ion bolts for a limited time. When Merr-Sonn Munitions, Inc. sought to increase its market share, it developed the widely used MPL-57, popular for its versatility and capability for firing a wide range of ammunition.[12]

One of our favorite day trips in all of Yellowstone is the drive through the Lamar Valley and then out through the NE entrance to the Beartooth Highway. This famous roadway leads from Billings and Red Lodge, MT to Cooke City, MT and the NE Entrance to Yellowstone Park. Commonly referred to as one of America's most scenic drives, this amazing road takes you across the Beartooth Mountain range and offers alpine views that will blow your mind.
You will see emerald blue alpine lakes, awesome rocky spires, gorgeous green meadows covered in wildflowers and wildlife galore including the ever-present mountain goats. There are numerous hiking trails and areas to stop and enjoy a picnic lunch while gazing out over miles and miles of mountain views like nothing you have ever seen. This rugged landscape is remote and the weather can change in minutes so it is always good to be prepared with adequate layers and plenty of water if you plan to hike and don't forget insect repellent!

Beets, along with lentils and escarole, are foods I avoided in my childhood and grew to love in my twenties, when I was broke and teaching myself how to cook. I was living in Brooklyn at the time, it was winter, and I had my fill of butternut squash. Beets are cheap and widely available, so I decided to give them a try.
I remember being in the produce department at Fairway, stunned by how inexpensive the beets were. Fifty-nine cents a pound! Always one to get the best bang for the few bucks I had, I bought the largest beet I could find. It was about the size of a grapefruit, enough to supply me with a week's worth of beet salads.
I went home and consulted the oracle: Mark Bittman. In How to Cook Everything, Bittman advises that the most foolproof way to cook beets is to roast them, and so I followed his directions: trim the beets of any hairy-looking roots, wrap in foil, and roast for an hour at 400 degrees, or until the tip of a knife can easily cut through the beet's flesh.
An hour went by, and I went to the oven to check my shining wrapped beet. It was hard as a stone. I gave it another fifteen minutes, then another thirty, and then finally, after two hours and twenty minutes of cooking time had elapsed, the tip of my knife was finally able to slice through the beet.
The long cooking time was a result of the size of the beet. Bittman didn't mention anything about that in his recipe, and although I got the biggest beet of the bunch at Fairway, it was not significantly larger than its neighbors. Roasting a single vegetable for over two hours seemed like a waste of energy, but I decided to refrain from judgement until I tasted the beet.
"Earthy" is not an adjective that I equate with "delicious"; earthy-flavored foods remind me of the dirt they came from. Beets do have an earthy taste, much the way chard does. But roasting brings out their sweetness and cuts that earthy undertone, which is particularly strong in larger beets. I recommend going for the smaller ones.
Here are some helpful tips that I've learned from my blunders in the kitchen:
Without further ado, here's my recipe for…

What a fun week spent with wonderful ladies at Punderson! The class was full of the loveliest gals who were also rug hooking machines. Just check out the rugs. This is Gail's Garden Rabbit (we had three of them) and her colors were soft and old looking. The second picture is her rabbit completed. Isn't it grand?
The next picture is Patti's Garden Rabbit. Isn't it wonderful as well? We had a few laughs in class about the little rug the rabbit was sitting on. . . a rug in the garden, seriously ladies (* wink, wink*)? I'm still chuckling about it! Patti is a hooking machine and I'm sure this rug is completed.
Jamie's Garden rabbit was so wonderfully primitive! Love, love, love it as well!
Don't you just love Nancy's primitive version of this pattern? I just love the rusty red wool for Santa's jacket and grungy background wool. Aren't the teal mittens just a great surprise of color?
Nancy hooked the beard in a higgly piggly method to give the beard texture. Fantastic, right?
Oh and I so loving Liz's Chief Massasoit. The colors make my heart go pitter patter!
Sue chose to hook the liberty rug below and she was hooking it so quickly that I was afraid she would finish it before class ended. We discussed adding a hit or miss border to rug and Sue was a trooper and agreed. And I just love it! I liked the rug before but this border enhances the rug so much! Thanks for being up for the challenge Sue.
Rebecca was hooking the "Sweet Bea" pattern and was going to town on the rug. Did I fail to mention this was the second pattern she worked on during class? She finished Freida the Friendly Witch pattern but had taken it to her car before I got a picture of it.
Linda designed her own pattern and it was as sweet as it could be. Click on the photo to see the closeup of the squirrel. Linda hooked her loops higher to make the tail fluffy.
The next two rugs were designed by Judy for she and her sister to hook. Judy is a fine hooker and was doing a lot with shading and sculpting to give her pumpkin a lot of dimension. Isn't he wonderful?
Lou on the other hand, was looking for a rug in a little bit of a wider cot and was letting the design of the rug dictate the character.
These two rugs and the sisters who were hooking these rugs just make me smile.
And last but not least is Lana's rug. Lana designed this rug herself and it is a pine tree with all kinds of different animals nestled into the branches of the tree . . . And animals not necessarily indigenous to pine trees.
See what I mean? Awesome rugs from incredibly talented and creative ladies. How lucky was I to spend a few days with these ladies.
Thanks for stopping by, Maria

Gibney Dance marked an important milestone at the Ailey Citigroup Theater with Retro-ACTIVE, which celebrated 20 years of evocative choreography.
The program included excerpts from evening length works including Time Remaining (2002), Thrown (2004), Several Truths (2001), The Distance Between Us (2007), View Partially Obstructed (2009), and my personal favorite, unbounded (2005). Having seen most of these works before, I was really thrilled with the curation of the night, each work focusing on spacial awareness and partnering.
The night also included new twists on the original choreography with the addition of men to the company performing works that were created on women. For example, the duet with Andrew Avery and Joshua Palmer in The Distance Between Us evoked a tension that hasn't been seen in Gibney work for ten years. unbounded also had an interesting dynamic with its intensely difficult choreography that challenged the male and female bodies very differently.
All in all, it was wonderful to see this array of powerful work by Gibney Dance on stage.

I visited Huntly mine as part of the Australian Geography Teachers Conference in January this year. I've finally put together the small snippets of video and the photos from the tour. I'm certainly no Francis Ford Cappola, but you might be able to use the video to introduce a case study for Natural Resources. Check out the video and some related sites.
It is interesting to look at how the mine operates, but perhaps more interesting is to look at the successes and failures of the rehabilitation of the mining sites. There are a few comments about issues related to rehabilitation towards the end of the video, but some of the articles specifically address this issue.

Details are sketchy, but it seems Audi Netherlands confirmed a new Audi S3 will arrive sometime in 2006. The hot version of Audi's hatch was last seen in Europe in 2003. No word on price, arrival date or fixins, but the engine is reported to be a GTI-grade direct-injection 2.0-liter turbo four. Rumor has it an RS3 is also in the works. Could it be a swank cousin of the a VW R37?

There is life after debt—and it's fun! No, seriously it's great! Come over to this side of the fence as quick as you can.
After you get out of debt there is a ton of cool stuff you get to do (you could do it before, it just wouldn't be the best choice)
Life After Debt: Who Are You?
If you've been struggling to get of debt for a long time, and then one day. BAM! You're done, the last check is mailed off and you don't owe anyone a dime. You're debt free!
It could be surprisingly anti-climatic at the end of the debt-free road. You've fought the dragon so long that your identity is tied to that stupid dragon. Your identity is no longer dragon debt slayer. It might be hard to put down your sword, but it's time–the dragon is dead.
Without the dragon who are you? It will be a time of redefining yourself, your priorities, and your goals.
The next day the sun will rise and you'll trot off to work, just like when you had debt. Life will be surprisingly the same, but with a sense of freedom. You'll have a new swagger in your step.
Guess what?
Life After Debt is Awesome
Debt has forced you to do things you didn't want to do at times you didn't want to do them. You've got new goals now. Time to work on your 3-6 months of emergency fund and save for annual expenses.
What can you do after you're out of debt and have savings? There are countless possibilites, but you have a choice.
You have a choice. Let those words sink in.
- You can choose where your money goes, rather than having been predetermined by your debt.
- You have a choice how to spend your extra money. You can choose to have fun.
- You have a choice to give more when you're out of debt.
- You can choose where to invest and what items to save for.
- You have career choices. If you have $0 debt and 6 months of savings, you could start your business (I did).
Life after debt is full of choices. Choose wisely.
What will life after debt look for you? If you living life after debt–What are you Choosing with your freedom from debt?

Andrew Anglin of Total Fascism attacks Troy Southgate of the National Anarchist Movement
A short time ago I mentioned that I had been labelled a 'fake nationalist' by Andrew Anglin of the Total Fascism (TF) website. Given that I am not even a nationalist, this seems fairly ridiculous. I was also called a 'traitor' for meeting up with the anti-Zionist rabbi, Ahron Cohen, someone I admire tremendously. However, the deluded denizens of TF do not seem to mind that Anglin fails to live up to the ethnic rigors demanded by their own supremacist website. More seriously, the link below - which was forwarded to me earlier today - not only includes video footage of Anglin with his Philippino girlfriend, but also claims that he has an unhealthy interest in underage girls and that his father may work for the United Nations. Regardless of the truth of these allegations, Anglin's feigned obsession with the Jewish bogeyman is clearly designed to perpetuate the kind of transient Hollywood Nutzism that only serves the interests of those it purports to oppose.

And yet another spiffy tip for ya: Jun Gallardo's FIREBIRD CONSPIRACY and Cirio H. Santiago's THE DESTROYERS (aka The Devastator) are up for auction from Kurt Nyfors in Finland. Both are on VHS in the PAL system and both carry the original English audio with local subtitles. The auctions run for another 17 hrs.
NB: I'm not the seller nor do I profit from the auctions.
There are 75 billion blogs in Cyberspace. Only O-N-E is devoted entirely to trashy Filipino movies about the Vietnam War. Welcome to that blog!

A custodial parent is the parent who is given either legal or physical custody of a child after a divorce or separation, according to USLegal. Physical custody determines where a child lives, and legal custody determines which parent makes decisions affecting the welfare of the child.
Custody is determined by a court system and can be awarded to someone other than the biological parent of the child if the biological parents are absent, deceased, deemed unfit, seen as a danger to the child or in prison, explains USLegal. In these cases, custodial rights are often granted to other relatives, such as grandparents, foster parents or, in some cases, orphanages. Joint custody can also be awarded. In a joint-custody agreement both parents have various rights to the child in terms of living arrangements (typically part-time with each parent) and with decisions regarding the welfare of the child.

- An approximately 2-fold increased risk of lower-limb amputations associated with INVOKANA® use was observed in CANVAS and CANVAS-R, two large, randomized, placebo-controlled trials in patients with type 2 diabetes who had established cardiovascular disease (CVD) or were at risk for CVD.
- Amputations of the toe and midfoot were most frequent; however, amputations involving the leg were also observed. Some patients had multiple amputations, some involving both limbs.
- Before initiating, consider factors that may increase the risk of amputation, such as a history of prior amputation, peripheral vascular disease, neuropathy, and diabetic foot ulcers.
- Monitor patients receiving INVOKANA® for infection, new pain or tenderness, sores, or ulcers involving the lower limbs, and discontinue if these complications occur.
- History of a serious hypersensitivity reaction to INVOKANA®, such as anaphylaxis or angioedema
- Severe renal impairment (eGFR <30 mL/min/1.73 m2), end-stage renal disease, or patients on dialysis
WARNINGS and PRECAUTIONS
Lower-Limb Amputation: An approximately 2-fold increased risk of lower-limb amputations associated with INVOKANA® use was observed in CANVAS and CANVAS-R, two large, randomized, placebo-controlled trials evaluating patients with type 2 diabetes who had either established cardiovascular disease or were at risk for cardiovascular disease. In CANVAS, INVOKANA®-treated patients and placebo-treated patients had 5.9 and 2.8 amputations per 1000 patients per year, respectively. In CANVAS-R, INVOKANA®-treated patients and placebo-treated patients had 7.5 and 4.2 amputations per 1000 patients per year, respectively. The risk of lower-limb amputations was observed at both the 100-mg and 300-mg once-daily dosage regimens.
Amputations of the toe and midfoot (99 out of 140 patients with amputations receiving INVOKANA® in the two trials) were the most frequent; however, amputations involving the leg, below and above the knee, were also observed (41 out of 140 patients with amputations receiving INVOKANA® in the two trials). Some patients had multiple amputations, some involving both lower limbs.
Lower-limb infections, gangrene, and diabetic foot ulcers were the most common precipitating medical events leading to the need for an amputation. The risk of amputation was highest in patients with a baseline history of prior amputation, peripheral vascular disease, and neuropathy.
Before initiating, consider factors in the patient history that may predispose to the need for amputations, such as a history of prior amputation, peripheral vascular disease, neuropathy, and diabetic foot ulcers. Counsel patients about the importance of routine preventative foot care. Monitor patients for signs and symptoms of infection (including osteomyelitis), new pain or tenderness, sores, or ulcers involving the lower limbs, and discontinue if these complications occur.
- Hypotension: INVOKANA® causes intravascular volume contraction. Symptomatic hypotension can occur after initiating INVOKANA®, particularly in patients with impaired renal function (eGFR <60 mL/min/1.73 m2), elderly patients, patients on either diuretics or medications that interfere with the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system, or patients with low systolic blood pressure. Before initiating in patients with ≥1 of these characteristics, volume status should be assessed and corrected. Monitor for signs and symptoms after initiating.
- Ketoacidosis: Reports of ketoacidosis, a serious life-threatening condition requiring urgent hospitalization, have been identified in patients with type 1 and 2 diabetes mellitus receiving SGLT2 inhibitors, including INVOKANA®. Fatal cases of ketoacidosis have been reported in patients taking INVOKANA®. Before initiating INVOKANA®, consider factors in patient history that may predispose to ketoacidosis, including pancreatic insulin deficiency, caloric restriction disorders, and alcohol abuse. In patients treated with INVOKANA®, consider monitoring for ketoacidosis and temporarily discontinuing in clinical situations known to predispose to ketoacidosis (eg, prolonged fasting due to acute illness or surgery).
Acute Kidney Injury and Impairment in Renal Function: INVOKANA® causes intravascular volume contraction and can cause renal impairment. Postmarketing reports of acute kidney injury, some requiring hospitalization and dialysis, were reported; some reports involved patients younger than 65 years of age. Before initiation, consider factors that may predispose patients to acute kidney injury including hypovolemia, chronic renal insufficiency, congestive heart failure and concomitant medications. Consider temporarily discontinuing INVOKANA® in any setting of reduced oral intake or fluid losses; monitor patients for signs and symptoms of acute kidney injury. If acute kidney injury occurs, discontinue promptly and institute treatment.
INVOKANA® increases serum creatinine and decreases eGFR. Patients with hypovolemia may be more susceptible to these changes. Renal function abnormalities can occur after initiation. Renal function should be evaluated prior to initiation and periodically thereafter. Dose adjustment and more frequent renal function monitoring are recommended in patients with an eGFR <60 mL/min/1.73 m2.
- Hyperkalemia: INVOKANA® can lead to hyperkalemia. Patients with moderate renal impairment who are taking medications that interfere with potassium excretion or medications that interfere with the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system are more likely to develop hyperkalemia. Monitor serum potassium levels periodically in patients with impaired renal function and in patients predisposed to hyperkalemia due to medications or other medical conditions.
- Urosepsis and Pyelonephritis: There have been reports of serious urinary tract infections, including urosepsis and pyelonephritis, requiring hospitalization in patients receiving SGLT2 inhibitors, including INVOKANA®. Treatment with SGLT2 inhibitors increases this risk. Evaluate patients for signs and symptoms and treat promptly.
- Hypoglycemia With Concomitant Use With Insulin and Insulin Secretagogues: INVOKANA® can increase the risk of hypoglycemia when combined with insulin or an insulin secretagogue. A lower dose of insulin or insulin secretagogue may be required to minimize the risk of hypoglycemia when used in combination with INVOKANA®.
- Genital Mycotic Infections: INVOKANA® increases risk of genital mycotic infections. Patients with history of these infections and uncircumcised males were more likely to develop these infections. Monitor and treat appropriately.
- Hypersensitivity Reactions: Hypersensitivity reactions, including angioedema and anaphylaxis, were reported with INVOKANA®; these reactions generally occurred within hours to days after initiation. If reactions occur, discontinue INVOKANA®, treat per standard of care, and monitor until signs and symptoms resolve.
- Bone Fracture: Increased risk of bone fracture, occurring as early as 12 weeks after treatment initiation, was observed in patients using INVOKANA®. Consider factors that contribute to fracture risk prior to initiating INVOKANA®.
- Increases in Low-Density Lipoprotein (LDL-C): Dose-related increases in LDL-C can occur with INVOKANA®. Monitor LDL-C and treat per standard of care after initiating.
- Macrovascular Outcomes: There have been no clinical studies establishing conclusive evidence of macrovascular risk reduction with INVOKANA®.
- UGT Enzyme Inducers: Rifampin: Co-administration of INVOKANA® with rifampin decreased INVOKANA® area under the curve (AUC) by 51% and therefore may decrease efficacy. If an inducer of UGT enzymes must be co-administered with INVOKANA®, consider increasing the dose to 300 mg once daily if patients are currently tolerating INVOKANA® 100 mg once daily, have an eGFR ≥60 mL/min/1.73 m2, and require additional glycemic control. Consider other antihyperglycemic therapy in patients with an eGFR <60 mL/min/1.73 m2 who require additional glycemic control.
- Digoxin: There was an increase in the AUC and mean peak drug concentration of digoxin (20% and 36%, respectively) when co-administered with INVOKANA® 300 mg. Monitor appropriately.
- Positive Urine Glucose Test: Monitoring glycemic control with urine glucose tests is not recommended in patients taking SGLT2 inhibitors as SGLT2 inhibitors increase urinary glucose excretion and will lead to positive urine glucose test results. Use alternative methods to monitor glycemic control.
- Interference With 1,5-Anhydroglucitol (1,5-AG) Assay: Monitoring glycemic control with 1,5-AG assay is not recommended as measurements of 1,5-AG are unreliable in assessing glycemic control in patients taking SGLT2 inhibitors. Use alternative methods to monitor glycemic control.
- Pregnancy: Based on animal data showing adverse renal effects, INVOKANA® is not recommended during the second and third trimesters of pregnancy. Limited data with INVOKANA® in pregnant women are not sufficient to determine a drug-associated risk for major birth defects or miscarriage. There are risks to mother and fetus associated with poorly controlled diabetes in pregnancy.
- Nursing Mothers: There is no information regarding the presence of INVOKANA® in human milk, the effects on the breastfed infant, or the effects on milk production. Because of the potential for serious adverse reactions in a breastfed infant, advise women that use of INVOKANA® is not recommended while breastfeeding.
- Pediatric Use: Safety and effectiveness in patients <18 years of age have not been established.
- Geriatric Use: 2034 patients ≥65 years and 345 patients ≥75 years were exposed to INVOKANA® in 9 clinical studies. Patients ≥65 years had a higher incidence of adverse reactions related to reduced intravascular volume (eg, hypotension, postural dizziness, orthostatic hypotension, syncope, and dehydration), particularly with the 300-mg dose, compared to younger patients; more prominent increase in the incidence was seen in patients who were ≥75 years. Smaller reductions in HbA1c relative to placebo were seen in patients ≥65 years (-0.61% with INVOKANA® 100 mg and -0.74% with INVOKANA® 300 mg) compared to younger patients (-0.72% with INVOKANA® 100 mg and -0.87% with INVOKANA® 300 mg).
- Renal Impairment: Efficacy and safety were evaluated in a study that included patients with moderate renal impairment (eGFR 30 to <50 mL/min/1.73 m2). These patients had less overall glycemic efficacy and a higher occurrence of adverse reactions related to reduced intravascular volume, renal-related adverse reactions, and decreases in eGFR compared to patients with mild renal impairment or normal renal function (eGFR ≥60 mL/min/1.73 m2); patients treated with 300 mg were more likely to experience increases in potassium. INVOKANA® is not recommended in patients with severe renal impairment (eGFR <30 mL/min/1.73 m2), with end-stage renal disease, or receiving dialysis.
- Hepatic Impairment: INVOKANA® has not been studied in patients with severe hepatic impairment and is not recommended in this population.
- In the event of an overdose, contact the Poison Control Center and employ the usual supportive measures, eg, remove unabsorbed material from the gastrointestinal tract, employ clinical monitoring, and institute supportive treatment as needed.
- The most common adverse reactions associated with INVOKANA® (5% or greater incidence) were female genital mycotic infections, urinary tract infections, and increased urination.

BAM! I finally have time to post another review! I have been so busy with my life that I just didn't have the time to sit, relax and write.. Now, let's get started
It was lunch time, I was hungry.. I have been waiting for the sushi fiesta with OpenRice at Taiyo Sushi..
Went out driving alone, it was scorching hot and I felt like a total sweat ball. Not attractive, I know.. A less than 7 minutes drive from my house to the nearest and most favorite sushi restaurant according to me :
TAIYO SUSHI.. Yes, not Taio Cruz, but Taiyo Sushi.. I have actually done a review before about this place. Right after they had finished their renovation, I asked my friends to come and join me for dinner. Twice that week we had our meal in here. We simply found it to be THAT GOOD.. They have a simple concept, really. Fusion Sushi with their signature cheese mayo sauce and that grilled scent of torched topping are the two things that I found most lovable at Taiyo.
|I was having a sore throat, so I ordered hot ocha even though they have served us with fresh watermelon juice..
|Clearer view of the Chawan Mushi (12rb). Topped with Japanese fish cake and mushrooms, a bit of spring onions. On the bottom, it was filled with chunks of tender chicken meat.. Warm comfort food indeed..
|The making process in the open kitchen.. This is located in the middle of the sushi bar
|Tempura Maki Floss (22K). Crunchy tempura with floss.. Simple yet it compliments each other..
|This is the manager, introducing their new pasta menu
|Spicy Salmon Fry (26K). They use spicy mayo sauce but I didn't find it spicy at all. I love how crunchy yet not so greasy the dish turned out to be.
Click here to check out my first review of Taiyo Sushi : http://elvina-febriani.blogspot.com/2012/08/taiyo-sushi-not-cruz.html
I personally stick up to my first review, I just LOVE this place. The fact that it's near my house, it's delicious and it's new keep me going back to this place again and again. My friends all agreed that this is the place to be when craving for fusion sushi. We were all completely full and belly-satisfied.. If you were in the area nearby, just go give it a try. Order a dish or two and just have a good time enjoying simple yummy fusion..

Every year our rambler recovers from another winter away from motorcycles by watching some of the fastest two-wheeled riders on the planet.
Some people trust groundhogs and their reactions to shadows to determine the duration of winter. Others still depend on Farmer's Almanacs, charts, earth orbiting satellites and so on – but not this rider. No, for me winter's demise directly coincides with the embers of racing obsession flaring into crackling flames.
The process begins with racing television coverage and my incessant desire to observe competitive events ranging from AMA Supercross, Supersport, Flat Track to just about anything with the possibility of a motorcycle making an appearance, however poorly assembled… Have you ever seen the 2004 movie Torque? I rest my case!
From there the procedure evolves to find me in the workshop, assessing all of the prospective modifications (repairs) required to make my own equipment competitive for the upcoming season: tracking down oil leaks, sealing rims that refuse to hold air and other such maladies that tend to take place while your bike is supposedly in a long winter's nap.
After many months of procrastination, some online shopping and even a little bit of actual wrench turning, the weather outside slowly turns from frightful to reasonable. By the time I find myself embarking upon the annual discovery that I need a new set of ramps and, for that matter, a new pickup truck, the telltale signs of winter's retreat can be witnessed all around. Days are longer, the sun is warmer, birds caw to each other in between bouts of bowel evacuations on my windshield. Life is good and the hum of well-tuned motorcycles circulates the local tracks once again, creating a background symphony in a world coming out of a long session of cold-induced silence.
Despite events rarely going to plan, our contributor also gets his amateur racing fix by lining up at the gate.
As any amateur racer can attest, thin is the line between ecstasy and misery. Those first few events of the season are often pure elation to me despite the fact that rarely does anything go according to plan. I remember all too fondly the year my friend Steve had me load up my Kawasaki KX250 into his hauler for a March practice session up in the sand pits of Canada. The logic there was that, while the rest of the locals were enduring swamped out tracks and soupy trails, we could gain a few weeks early advantage by training north of the border.
The trouble was the place was actually too hot and dry when we were there! I foolishly packed way too little water and sported completely inappropriate (read: poorly ventilated) riding gear. Never mind that it was a 38-degree swamp at Steve's place that same morning. By the fourth hour of pounding laps in the dust, I began considering suckling from the mineral spirits hose in Steve's moto-hauler; after all, it couldn't be worse than trying to milk a drop of water from the foliage I had managed to gather up in my rear sprocket.
About a decade later I found myself heading in the exact opposite direction toward Ohio for a track day on Friday and a professional race on the very same course on Saturday. It was one of those rare, unseasonably warm weekends in mid April and, thinking back to my earlier lapse in judgment, I made certain to pack adequate fluids for the affair.
My R6 had been given the royal mechanical treatment the weekend prior, which included new tires, fresh fluids, brake pads and a smoked windscreen. The preparation was for naught, however, when – just after unloading her on Friday morning – my Yamaha began the most troublesome of annoyances in that it would simply cut out and stall without warning. Suffice it to say I was treated to a weekend of watching both the track day and pro event in my lawn chair. I did, however, get a decent farmer's tan and, as for the bike, its next owner discovered a faulty ignition box after I ran out of cash trying to pinpoint the issue.
Even recently my early spring racetrack enthusiasm was put to the test a few years back when my cousin convinced me to take a trip out to a race facility that catered to shaggy, tattooed motocross racers. In other words, he and I expected to be the veterans of the affair at 30. In that regard we weren't disappointed and as further proof of our combined inadequacy, I found myself getting landed on during our first qualifier. I was glad to have escaped the affair with only cosmetic damage to the machine and just barely regrouped in time to give it a go in the LCQ.
Just as our class was given the clear to line up at the gate, I found my path being barred by a track worker holding a pair of flags across my bars requesting, for whatever reason, to see my wristband before allowing me entry. In a panic I scrambled to produce the band I knew had been there two-minutes prior, and even resorted to heading back to my pit and tearing the place apart in vain when pulling the sleeve of my jersey up didn't reveal the thing. Finally, as the gate dropped and the final qualifier got underway the band
Although it can be torture, racing is a good way to shake off winter's cobwebs for another season in the saddle.
became dislodged from the Velcro closure of my glove, where it had apparently been all along. I was offered a chance to enter a lap down but I had used what little energy I had in reserve proving my innocence, and decided to call it a night. My cousin managed to come in 23rd out of 25 for what it was worth.
Despite a history that could have any non-racer scratching their head in disbelief, the signs of the forthcoming racing season are proof that winter's demise is well on its way. Sure it would be a lot more convenient and painless to simply take the advice of a fat groundhog or dusty Farmer's Almanac, but as any amateur racer can attest – thin is the line between ecstasy and misery.
