Wealth, War and Wisdom
By Barton Biggs
Narrated by Erik Synnestvedt / 11 hours 52 minutes
In Wealth, War, and Wisdom, legendary Wall Street investor Barton Biggs reveals how the turning points of World War II intersected with market performance. Biggs will help the 21st-century investor comprehend our own perilous times as well as choose the best strategies for the modern market economy."The wisdom of the markets" prevails, even in the most turbulent of eras: the British stock market bottomed out just before the Battle of Britain; the U.S. market turned at the epic Battle of Midway; and the German market peaked at the high-water mark of Germany's attack on Russia. Those events turned out to be the three great turning points of World War II - although at the time, no one and no instrument except the stock markets recognized them.
Biggs skillfully discusses the performance of equities in both victorious and defeated countries, reveals how individuals preserved their wealth despite the ongoing battles, and explores whether or not public equities were able to increase in value and serve as a wealth preserver.
Biggs also looks at how other assets, including real estate and gold, fared during this dynamic and devastating period, and offers valuable insights on preserving one's wealth for future generations.

In recent years, there has been an increasing supply of digital, pedagogical tools, known as Digital Learning Objects (DLO) – digital resources (image, film, animation, etc.) and software developed specifically for educational purposes. In the area of Computer Science, teaching Databases present a particular challenge because of a lack of quality tools to work with Relational Algebra. The present study proposes a web-based tool to support teaching and learning Relational Algebra – an important subject that is particularly difficult for students to understand. The purpose of the proposed tool is to provide an alternative method for teaching Relational Algebra operations, such as: selection, projection, union, set difference, rename, intersection, Cartesian product, natural join, division and some aggregate functions. In addition, we propose a graphic definition of a database schema (using features such as drag and drop, column highlights, lines, fields, etc.), so students can use the tool easily, and in conjunction with the theory taught regarding the definition languages (DDL) and data manipulation (DML). We intend for this tool to serve as an appropriate means for teaching and learning Relational Algebra, contributing to the development of new teaching skills, as well motivating the students in the process of learning.

Do you have a Working Holiday Visa and plan on heading down under to earn some Australian Dollars? Here are my top tips to maximize your job offers. These tips are based on my previous experience and are aimed for a job in hospitality, but you may find this post useful for any role.
Visit bars and restaurants in person.
Hospitality jobs come and go very quickly, as most bars and restaurants employ temporary staff. In Australia I realized that employers do prefer you to hand your CV to them in person. It might seem a lot more long winded to do this than apply online, but actually you may find it offers you a head start and gives you opportunity to see where somewhere is like. You may visit somewhere and realize that actually you can't imagine yourself working there.
Complete a RSA course.
If you know that you definitely want to work in hospitality when you arrive in Australia and have previous experience, you will need to apply for an RSA. (Responsible Service of Alcohol). You won't be able to sell alcohol without completing the course. Depending on which state you work in, will adequate which RSA you require. Most states allow you to complete the course online, but some you may have to have face to face training.
Update your CV before you go
You'll hear the word resume more in Australia than CV. Make sure you up date your resume as best as you can before you go. I found that adding a small, professional photograph of myself in the corner added a personal affect and made my resume more unique and made it stand out from the crowd. Keep your CV short and simple (no more than 2 pages) and list similar roles to the area you are applying for.
Apply for jobs online.
You may find websites such as Seek, Indeed and Gumtree useful. Gumtree is very popular for advertising jobs and I know a lot of people that have found some real good hospitality roles. But, beware of the scams.
Check hostel job boards and ask around!
If you are staying in a hostel, most of them have a job board. Also, most popular hostels have a bar and restaurant, so it's always a good idea to ask where you're staying.
I hope you find this post helpful, I myself have had the pleasure of job hunting down under. It's easy enough to find a role if you have experience. Good luck!

As a person ages, they may discover that they are no longer able to take care of day-to-day activities on their own. While they want to remain in their own homes, where they are familiar with their surroundings and comfortable, they may need some assistance to help them make it through the day.
In-home care services provide help and assistance for seniors, allowing them to remain at home while still getting the help they need. Taking some time to learn more about the in-home care options in Cleveland can help anyone find a provider that is right for their needs.
There are quite a few in-home care service options across the Cleveland area. These services can be divided into two main categories: homemaker services or personal care and skilled care or home health assistance. There are some services that offer both types of care.
In order to learn a little more about the type and level of care families in Cleveland received from in-home care agencies, we took a look at the reviews left on SeniorAdvisor.com. Some of the services mentioned by reviewers included the following:
A daughter of a client using Harmony Home Care stated, "Everyone who has been caring for my mother has been wonderful, kind and caring."
A family member of a client from Home Helpers made the comment that they clearly understood why this company won various awards for their service.
In addition to providing last-minute care, the majority of agencies offering in-home care services can create a schedule that suits the needs of the senior. They may only need respite care for when a normal caregiver is not feeling well, or if they are on vacation. They may also want a part-time caregiver to come in for a few hours every day to ensure the senior receives assistance getting their day started. Whether you choose full or part time care, you will find that in-home care can relieve the stress that families have when attempting to provide care for an aging loved one. This can be extremely beneficial for family members who may live far away and not be able to provide the care a loved one needs.
When it comes to providing care for a senior, there is more than one service and resource that can prove to be beneficial. When you take the time to create a senior care toolbox, you will have everything you need within arm's reach. Some resources to consider using include the following:
Finding a private caregiver for a senior loved one. This option is often preferred over hiring an agency because it allows you to control the entire hiring process from the beginning to end. However, this can be an intensive process that requires a good deal of time and effort.
Utilize agency care and private caregiver services. This offers you the very best of both worlds for those who want a senior to receive the quality care they deserve.
When it comes to finding resources in the community, there are a number of places that can be beneficial, as well. The City of Cleveland offers a number of resources for seniors in the community including social and health services and information, home maintenance, financial assistance, senior employment, and transportation.
Utilizing the resources that are available can help a senior get the care they need and ensure they can remain in the home where they are comfortable and happy.
The cost of in-home care can be quite high for seniors, which is why it is important to find ways to cover the costs. Many families have had to deplete savings or take out additional loans to help cover the care for a family member who needs this type of care.
The average cost of hiring a homemaker in Cleveland is between $17 and $23 per hour, which means most families will spend over $40,000 per year. This cost may not seem like much, but for some families, it can be hard to handle.
While Medicaid and Medicare may cover skilled in-home care for a certain period of time, it cannot be relied on long-term. As a result, a senior may need to begin looking into non-care related services. Some options may be to look into Veteran's benefits or investing in long-term care insurance.

Chapter 3: The Price of Morality: An Institutional Analysis of the Profitability of Responsibility
Tobias Gössling
Introduction Morality has a price. One cannot buy morality or pay a price for being a moral person. However, we can define prices, or shadow prices, for moral behaviour as opposed to immoral behaviour. At least for simple situations, it is possible to construct a cost–benefit analysis. The difference between the net result of the most efficient immoral choice in a situation and a moral choice in the same situation would be the price of morality in that situation. This study discusses whether or not it can be economically rational to behave morally, and describes the market mechanisms that determine the costs and benefits of morality. In business ethics, expressions like 'morality pays' or 'good ethics is good business' suggest that it is always economically efficient to behave morally or to be a moral person. Some political economists, on the other hand, argue that the systematic approach to ethics and moral behaviour can be found in the formal institutional setting of a society (Homann and Blome-Drees,1992; Brennan and Buchanan, 1985). This study describes the institutional setting of formal and informal institutions as a condition for morality of individual institutions. Given these conditions, this chapter draws conclusions for the price that individuals have to pay for moral behaviour and for the price that societies have to pay for the morality of their members. Individual morality This study describes morality as individual and intrinsic. Furthermore, morality is based upon cognitive processes. These processes lead to the development of general individual...

I had an issue with GitHub when trying to push or pull.
It was asking me to log in every time, but still failing with an error.
Here are the error messages I was getting from all 3 ways I work with GitHub:
Git failed with a fatal error. HttpRequestException encountered. An error occurred while sending the request. cannot spawn askpass: No such file or directory could not read Username for 'https://github.com': terminal prompts disabled
fatal: HttpRequestException encountered. An error occurred while sending the request. Username for 'https://github.com':
fatal: HttpRequestException encountered. An error occurred while sending the request. remote: Invalid username or password. fatal: Authentication failed for 'https://github.com/username/reponame.git/'
It is my understanding that GitHub has switched to using TLS 1.2, which is causing this error when your program is still trying to connect to GitHub using TLS 1.0.
If you want to improve your knowledge of GitHub you should definitely try this course on Pluralsight GitHub for Windows Developers
Firstly you need to download and install the latest version of the Git Windows Credential Manager.
Here is the link to it on GitHub. https://github.com/Microsoft/Git-Credential-Manager-for-Windows/releases/latest
Restart your machine.
Enter a git command in the command line and you will be prompted to login again.
If you still get the same fatal error, you will need to update Git by downloading the latest version from here:
Enter a git command in the command line and you will be prompted to login again. The problem should be solved now and you should be able to carry on working as normally.
If you are using the GitHub extension for Visual Studio, click on the Tools menu, click on Extensions and Updates, and you may have an update for the GitHub Extension and possibly one for Visual Studio itself. Install these and it should solve the issue for you.

"Kids" can create radio-controlled, rumbling robots and pit up to six of them against each other at a time, thanks to six interchangeable RC frequencies. Working with sturdy, yet flexible interlocking Uberstix components, builders utilize physics, engineering and creative skills to design robots that can trounce their opponents.

Then the fighters retire to redesign their Bots and devise another unbeatable strategy for victory. The 621 kit includes two UberBots, 250 Uberstix pieces, two remote controls, two flags, 14 rechargeable Ni-Cad batteries, two chargers and building instructions.

In the article KLEWS to Explanation-Building in Science, we learned about a specific procedure to follow when teaching science. The procedure, called KLEWS, allows students to track their learning throughout an investigation, building up to the understanding of a scientific principle. We start with K- What do we think we know? This step extracts students' prior knowledge and gives the teacher an idea of what each student brings to the table (whether it's correct or not). The next step is L- What are we learning? Students would fill out this column while investigating with different claims they have to answer the guiding questions. Simultaneously, students fill out E- What is our evidence? In this step, students list their observations that they feel substantiate their claims. Next, the students come up with ideas for further investigation or subsequent questions that came up throughout the investigation in the W- What do we still wonder about? column. Last is S- What scientific principles/ vocabulary help explain the phenomena? This step is the last of the investigation, once students have already made claims and listed their observations. In this step, the teacher explains the concept behind what they learned. It is crucial that this is the last step because students can make connections to a general concept from their own, personal experience in the investigation. It also brings the class together at the conclusion of an experiment. It allows the teacher to consolidate students' knowledge in a concise manner. Students should be the ones to dictate the scientific definitions and vocabulary because if it is in their own words, that demonstrates that they are working with their own knowledge and applying it, rather than just repeating a concept from a book.
The KLEWS chart moves through all the steps involved in scientific reasoning: CER. C stands for Claims, which we make in the L section of KLEWS. Then, E stands for Evidence just as it does in KLEWS. And last, R stands for Reasoning. In the KLEWS chart, it is the S section that involves scientific reasoning. Throughout an investigation, students list their observations and claims to answer a guiding question from their observations. Then, at the end, they learn science definitions which they re-construct to explain specifically how their investigation works because of a scientific principle. In CER, the Reasoning portion means connecting the evidence to the claim and explaining why the evidence supports the claim. One must use scientific ideas in the reasoning portion. The R- and S-aspects boil down to the same thing.
KLEWS and CER help facilitate science learning because it moves students from hands-on activity to minds-on activity. It directs an investigation to build on what the children know until they hit a scientific proof. The students actively participate from the start and even in the last step, the scientific principle that explains their claims and evidence must be constructed from their own thoughts and words. Because KLEWS builds on students' prior knowledge and involves their input at every step, it makes the final concept much more tangible for them. They truly will understand the concept, not just memorize a definition of the concept. In addition, KLEWS and CER require students to reflect on and verbalize their learning at every step in the scientific process. This metacognition is powerful for learners because it will pinpoint any holes in their logic, allowing students to focus their attention on the problem, rather than have an overall hazy understanding because of a misconception or flawed reasoning. Overall, the use of KLEWS and CER in a science investigation promote a more objective, clarified, and thorough understanding of science.

Hello and welcome to my Meniere's page. On this page I'm going to offer what I hope, will be some useful information in regard to living with Meniere's disease/syndrome. This includes the results of my own research from which I have regained most of my freedom. Firstly, what is Meniere's disease? Meniere's is a chronic condition characterised by hearing loss, tinnitus, sensations of fullness of the ear and recurrent bouts of severe vertigo or dizziness which induce nausea. Typically only one ear is affected, though in about 30% of sufferers, both ears may later become involved. Episodes of vertigo can last between a few minutes to several hours. My own experience also includes fleeting moments of giddiness which I call dizzy-strikes. The hearing loss and tinnitus may become constant over time. The cause or causes of Meniere's is unclear but is thought to involve both genetic and environmental factors. There are numerous theories as to how it occurs. These include the constriction of blood vessels, viral infections and autoimmune reactions. Symptoms are believed to occur as a result of fluid build up in the labyrinth of the inner ear. This would explain the sensations of fullness of the ear leading up to and during a vertigo attack. There is no known cure, so the attacks are instead managed with medications such as Prochlorperazine 5mg, to reduce the sensations of vertigo and thus help reduce the resulting nausea. There are measures which can be taken to reduce the likelihood of attacks but these are overall poorly supported through the lack of controlled testing. This is where my story comes in. Onwards from the mid 1980's I experienced on-off bouts of tinnitus, but being young and busy, I paid it little mind. Then one February morning in 1993, while on my way to work after a particularly noisy bout of tinnitus, I came over very, very giddy. I gave up with that journey, and with great difficulty, returned home. Once home, the vertigo got far, far worse. I'm talking real room-spin where by closing eyes, or by trying to focus on something offered no relief whatsoever. My bed felt as if it were doing somersaults all over the place. I never did enjoy fairground rides. After a few successive attacks I discussed this with my GP where I was prescribed Prochlorperazine. To cut a long story short, I found this medication very useful and never left home without it. The years passed, and by the early 2000's I had almost no severe attacks at all. I would however always keep the medication at hand wherever I went. Between the early 2000's and summer 2016 I enjoyed an almost Meniere's free life. Any attacks I had during those years were only mild; I would take a tablet and just carry on with whatever I was doing. Then during the summer of 2016 I had a surprise attack which was severe enough for me to stop what I was doing and go and rest for an hour or so. Believing it to be a one-off, I thought little of it and just got on with life. All Meniere's attacks I had up to this point were preceded by the fair warning of much tinnitus for a few days, followed by a gradual deterioration of my sense of balance over the course of several minutes. However, early on the evening of 28 August 2016 while working on my upcoming book, I was clobbered by a very, very sudden and equally severe Meniere's attack. Thankfully this was more motion induced giddiness than room-spin. Nevertheless, I was very ill that evening. I could not stand, and to move from one room to another, I had to crawl very slowly and carefully with my knees and hands splayed outwards to prevent myself from keeling over. To cut a long story short again, I would continue having attacks like this almost every day - some days, up to five such attacks. The Prochlorperazine although helpful, did not offer enough relief to prevent me from being incapacitated by these attacks. My GP informed me that this drug is about as good as I'm going to get when it comes to alleviating the effects of these attacks. I learnt at this time I could take up to four tablets at one time if required. This is only helpful if one can keep the little critters down. So I carried out some research. Surely there must be some way of warding off these vertigo attacks. Initially, via my intellectual friend Google, I could find nothing of a remedy which exceeded that of Prochlorperazine. I did however come across this very informative website:https://www.menieres.org.uk
As informative as this place is, I did not find what I was looking for. Then I had an idea. I began searching for natural remedies instead. I found this,Italy's University of Chieti-Pescara
the results of a test made at the University determined that French Maritime Pine Bark Extract is of great benefit to those suffering with Meniere's disease. After 6 months of taking French Maritime Pine Bark Extract tablets @ 150mg, 87% of those taking them became symptom free. Unable to work and with very little freedom, I had to try something, so I searched for French Maritime Pine Bark Extract on EBay and found several suppliers:-EBay (searched for French Maritime Pine Bark extract)
This natural remedy works as a vasodilator which helps increase blood flow. Seeing as constricted blood flow is thought to be a contributing factor in Meniere's, anything which improves blood flow should in theory help prevent Meniere's attacks. Prevent them it does! This remedy is not one which will work instantly in the same sense as a pain killer, but instead has to be allowed to build up in your system. So after a few days of taking one tablet per day with breakfast, the severity and frequency of my vertigo attacks began to drop off. I had also been suffering from what had become permanent motion induced giddiness. This also began to drop away. I initially bought 120 tablets, and once I had run out and because I am unable to earn an income and they are fairly pricey, I did not buy any more. Some weeks passed, and the attacks began to return, so I ordered another 120 tablets. Within a few days of taking them, the attacks had once again vanished. Now I am convinced that they work and have kept taking them since. Further Google research revealed to me that Ginkgo Biloba has also been shown to prevent Meniere's attacks. I have yet to try them for this but this lady has:YouTube article - 1 of many about Meniere's on YouTube
Like French Maritime Pine Bark Extract, Ginkgo Biloba also promotes good blood flow. So this may explain why Meniere's sufferers have benefitted from taking it. In short, anything which promotes good blood flow appears to ward off the vertigo attacks associated with Meniere's disease. There is a diet known as the Meniere's diet which also helps ward off the symptoms of Meniere's disease. This is mainly a low salt diet which includes fresh fruit and vegetables, as little processed food as possible and no caffeine. This is to help prevent the fluctuations in the fluid pressure in your inner ears. This diet would of course be healthier for you all round too. I generally eat very little processed food, always preferring to cook from scratch. However I do enjoy a cup of tea, followed by another cup of tea, the occasional beer, single malt with friends and I also enjoy chocolate too much to give it up. Another issue I have is with severe leg cramps in the morning (Charley horses). Seeing as a lack of sodium in one's diet can be a contributing factor, and that I eat very little processed food, salt avoidance is not for me. I instead deliberately add salt to some of my meals for this reason. So despite my not so strict following of the Meniere's diet, I am now almost symptom free. That I put down to my taking of French Maritime Pine Bark Extract. I do hope you found this information to be useful. Like all articles of this nature please do your own research too and chat to your GP before taking any new medication. Kind Regards, Marc Tiltman.Comments welcome via this Email link

Tinn has many beautiful churches. Churches with dramatic history and idyllic locations.
Tinn has many beautiful churches. Atrå church dates back to 1836. The church is beautifully decorated with floral paintings by the talented local painter, Øystein Orekås. Mæl church was built in 1839 and Hovin church in 1850. Dal church was built in 1775 and is the oldest church in the district. There were stave churches at all these locations previously. Austbygde church was completed in 1888, While Rjukan church dates back to 1915.
Rjukan church has a dramatic past. In 1927, there were terrible floods in Rjukan. There were lots of rockslides that crashed down the mountainsides and one of these swept the vicarage and a corner of the church away. The next episode was in 1953, when the ceiling collapsed, but fortunately no one was inside the church at the time. The latest thing to happen was in 1965, when the film "The Heroes of Telemark" was being made. One of the scenes was shot inside the church and a fire broke out during the same evening. Everything inside the stone walls that could burn, did. The church was subsequently rebuilt and refurbished in a modern style.
Frøystul Sportskapell is situated on the Hardangervidda mountain plateau. This building used to be the billiard room at Krokan Fjellhytte, before it was moved - and consecrated. Skirva Fjellkirke is situated on the edge of Hardangervidda. This church is quite a modern building and also has a lounge with an open fireplace, bedsits and a hobby room.

On one hand, one of her ex-boyfriends Ranbir Kapoor has become the sole reason of her tiff with director Karan Johar. On the other, her another ex-boyfriend Salman Khan has again taken the charge of her career.
Ranbir Kapoor, says a report in a leading daily, has been roped in for Karan Johar's next film. And that has resulted in the Kapoor lad spending a lot of time with KJo. And that, in turn, has led to Katrina alienating herself from Karan. A source told the daily, "Ranbir Kapoor was a fanboy of Sanjay Dutt. He looked up to him as a guru in many ways. Now it looks like that position has been taken over by Karan Johar. Ranbir is closer to Karan than he is to anyone else. He adheres to whatever advice the filmmaker gives him, especially now, after Ae Dil Hai Mushkil. "While KJo is producing Dragon, the buzz is that Ranbir will also act in his next directorial," added the source.
This newfound closeness between KJo and Ranbir has led to Katrina not being able to spend any time with the filmmaker. Added to that is the fact that Karan's production starring Katrina is currently on hold.
While one relationship is in trouble, another is blooming again. Salman Khan and Katrina Kaif's relationship seems to have come full circle. After a working equation that led to an alleged relationship, and then a break-up, the two will be back together in a film very soon — a Salman Khan production at that.
Says a friend of the actor, "He has again taken charge of Katrina's career. When she first came to Mumbai, it was Salman who introduced her to filmmaker friends including Sanjay Leela Bhansali and David Dhawan. Now that her career has hit a roadblock, he is helping her find her way again."
The two will appear in Ek Tha Tiger sequel, apart from Salman's home production to be directed by his brother-in-law, Atul Agnihotri. The shoot for the sequel will begin in March this year and the home production will go on floors by the end of the year.

The great tenor Sir Peter Pears (1910-1986) studied music at Keble and served as an organist at Hertford. However, at the end of his second term at Oxford he failed to pass the Moderations exam and could not afford to re-sit it. Later, the University conferred him with an honorary doctorate. Pears was a highly respected vocalist in opera as well as lieder and choral music whose long a productive career spanned nearly half a century. Pears was the life partner of the composer Benjamin Britten (1913-1976) who wrote the leading roles in many of his operas and a number of song cycles with Pears as their intended interpreter. Pears and Britten gave one of their first recitals together at Balliol on 17 Feb 1939.
