Monthly Outlook
In January 2015, the EUR/USD pair moved below the major demand levels near 1.2050-1.2100 (multiple previous bottoms set in July 2012 and June 2010). Hence, a long-term bearish target was projected toward 0.9450.
In March 2015, EUR/USD bears challenged the monthly demand level around 1.0500, which had been previously reached in August 1997.
In the longer term, the level of 0.9450 remains a projected target if any monthly candlestick achieves bearish closure below the depicted monthly demand level of 1.0500.
However, the EUR/USD pair has been trapped within the depicted consolidation range (1.0500-1.1450) until the current bullish breakout was executed above 1.1450 and recently above 1.2075.
Another bullish breakout above 1.2250 was expressed on the chart. This hinders the bearish momentum allowing bullish advancement to occur towards 1.2750 provided that the price level of 1.2250 remains defended by the bulls.
Daily Outlook
In September, a bearish target for the depicted Head and Shoulders pattern was projected towards 1.1350. However, the market failed to apply significant bearish pressure against the mentioned zone (1.1415-1.1520).
Instead, In November, evident bullish recovery was manifested around the price zone of 1.1520-1.1415.
This hindered further bearish decline which allowed the current bullish momentum to occur towards the price level of 1.2100 which failed to pause the ongoing bullish momentum as well.
Daily persistence above 1.2470-1.2500 is needed to confirm a recent bullish flag continuation pattern with projected targets around the price level of 1.2750.
On the other hand, a recent bearish pullback is being expressed below the price level of 1.2450 thus expressing a double-top reversal pattern with a projected target around 1.1990.
The current bearish pullback may extend towards 1.2070-1.1990 (reversal pattern projection targets) if a bearish breakdown of the level of 1.2200 (the depicted uptrend line) is achieved on a daily basis.The material has been provided by InstaForex Company - www.instaforex.com

November 21, 2011
LOS ANGELES -- In a rare summit that brings together two of the world's most influential money managers, PIMCO co-chief executive officer and chief information officer Bill Gross and Larry Fink, chairman and chief executive of BlackRock Inc., met at the Beverly Hilton Hotel in Beverly Hills, CA, on Thursday, Nov. 17, 2011, and provided their candid take on the U.S. economy, the European financial crisis, Occupy Wall Street and thoughts on investing strategy. This is only the second time that the two UCLA Anderson School of Management alumni, who graduated five years apart, have met to share their perspectives on global economic and financial issues.
UCLA Anderson, in partnership with Bloomberg Television, hosted this exclusive event, an- hour-long discussion, moderated by Bloomberg anchor, Erik Schatzker, followed by a question and answer session with the attending audience. The program will be aired globally on Bloomberg Television, Bloomberg.com and the Bloomberg TV+ app for iPad on Monday, Nov. 21, 2011, at various times. Video highlights of the event are available on UCLA Anderson's event page at http://www.anderson.ucla.edu/x38804.xml.
"What a fitting way to celebrate UCLA Anderson's 75th anniversary, with an incisive conversation between two extraordinary alumni who collectively manage $4.7 trillion in assets," says Judy Olian, dean of UCLA Anderson School of Management. "Their uniquely informed insights on global market conditions and risks couldn't be more timely, given the current volatility of key economies, the debt crisis, and prospects for emerging markets around the world."
Bill Gross, who runs the world's biggest bond mutual fund at Pacific Investment Management Co. (PIMCO), has frequently discussed today's "new normal" - described as an era of slowing economic growth in developed markets, higher unemployment and a rise in emerging markets. Larry Fink, who co-founded BlackRock in 1988 and has built the company through acquisitions, recently told Bloomberg that clients are "confused" and fleeing risky assets due to government policies. Under Fink, BlackRock advised the Federal Reserve during the aftermath of the 2008 financial crisis and more recently has advised the governments of Greece and Ireland on how to navigate the sovereign debt crisis in Europe.
Larry Fink has been named one of the "World's Best CEOs" by Barron's each year since 2005, and distinguished as one of the most respected people in finance by the Financial Times, Forbes and Smart Money. He received UCLA Anderson's 2007 Distinguished Alumni Award and has been a major player in the financial industry since earning his MBA in 1976. Since BlackRock's inception in 1988, Mr. Fink has kept client centric solutions and innovation at the forefront of his leadership, building a once small fixed income boutique into a global asset manager with more than 9,000 employees in 27 countries. A renowned philanthropist, Mr. Fink's generous leadership and financial contributions led to the school naming the Laurence and Lori Fink Center for Finance and Investment in his honor.
Called "the nation's most prominent bond investor" by the New York Times and "the consigliore to the world's financial elite" by Forbes, (who counted him among "the world's most powerful people" in 2009 and 2010), Bill Gross co-founded PIMCO and currently manages its Total Return fund, the world's largest mutual fund and is responsible for nearly $1.2 trillion worldwide. A former blackjack pro, Gross has said he still applies many of his gambling methods for spreading risk and calculating odds to his investment decisions. He is the author of two popular books on investing, Bill Gross on Investing and Everything You've Heard About Investing Is Wrong. Mr. Gross is a noted philanthropist, generous donor to UCLA Anderson, and has served as a keynote and commencement speaker at the institution.

IN THE EARLY weeks of the Eastertide lectionary, there appears a series of texts from the third and fourth chapters of Acts ... Peter and John, on their way to temple prayers, heal a man begging at the beautiful gate. His joy begets a sermon from Peter on the resurrection, at the close of which the disciples are arrested and spend the night in jail. The next day in court they again testify boldly, refuse to comply with the court's order, and are released after calculated threats from the authorities. Their release prompts prayers of thanksgiving in the community.
It shouldn't be, but always is, a surprise that healing in the New Testament is cause for political trouble. It is for Jesus. His healings are carefully surveilled; they are the topic of elaborate "grand jury" investigations (John 9). More than eyebrows are raised; they conjure conflict and plottings against him. In John, it is the raising of Lazarus—the ultimate in healing miracles—that finally precipitates Jesus' arrest.
Why so? You'd almost be led to suspect that political authority rules by brokenness, infirmity, blindness, division, and by death itself. Authority over death would be an affront to any such rule.

London (CNN) -- Since the financial crisis hit in 2007 the gap between rich and the poor has grown, unemployment has soared to record levels and Europe's young risk becoming a lost generation.
Ahead of the OECD Forum in Paris next week, CNN is hosting a tweet chat Monday May 27 between 12pm and 12:30pm BST to debate how the crisis has split the world and hear your views on who is at fault and how it can be fixed.
Using the hashtag #inequalityCNN, tell us how the crisis has impacted your life, and what generation X and Y -- those hardest hit by unemployment -- can do to change the global story.
Join the conversation with CNN's special guests European Youth Forum president Peter Matjasic and secretary general Giuseppe Porcaro, entrepreneur Karl Petter Rygh and Intern Aware in UK's Ben Lyons. They are attending the OECD Forum as youth representatives.
CNN will pull the best comments into a story to run ahead of the OECD Forum, on May 28 and 29, which will be discussing how the world can pull itself out of the financial mire and revealing its global economic outlook.
The forum follows the release of OECD figures this month showing income inequality increased as much in the first three years of the crisis as it had in the previous 12 years -- if mitigating factors such as taxes and welfare were not taken into account.
The figures show that in countries where the financial crisis hit hard, such as Greece, Spain and Italy, poor households "either lost more income from the recession or benefited less from recovery."
Greece and Spain are also the countries in which youth unemployment has reached the eurozone's highest levels, sitting at 62.5% and 55.9% respectively. Italy youth unemployment sits at 38.4%, according to Eurostat.
Meanwhile the number of billionaires increased by 210 to 1,426, according to the 2013 Forbes Billionaires List, with the aggregate net wealth increasing to $5.4 trillion from $4.6 trillion.
Is this fair? Tell us what you think, Monday May 27 at 12pm to 12:30pm BST.

Monte Bello Ridge, located in the northern reaches of the Santa Cruz mountains, has been a prized site for California winemaking for over a century. Italian born doctor Osea Perrone was the first to plant vines and build a winery here in 1886. Over time, various parts of what is now the Monte Bello property have been separately owned. That is, until 1959, when four scientists from the Stanford Research Institute decided to start purchasing property, uniting the disparate plots under Ridge Vineyards.
Since its inception, Ridge Vineyards has expanded far from its original home atop the Monte Bello Ridge. Grapes are now harvested from several vineyards in Sonoma county, as well as the Paso Robles AVA in San Luis Obispo county. The Geyserville and Lytton Springs Vineyards produce two of Ridge's most well known Zinfandels. The Geyserville Zinfandel was first produced from Ridge's Alexander Valley estate in 1966. The vines in this vineyard are the oldest of any Ridge vineyard, dating back 130 years. This longevity produces a singular intensity and complexity of flavor in the Geyserville Zinfandel. Lytton Springs had its first vintage in 1972 and is now a staple among Dry Creek Zinfandels. The gravelly clay soil of Dry Creek Valley provides constant moisture for the vines, allowing them to ripen slowly and build concentration.
Ridge Vineyards' most famous wine is a Cabernet blend harvested from the home vineyard on Monte Bello Ridge. At such a high altitude, Monte Bello is tiered, reaching 2700' above sea level at its highest point. Grapes ripen late, producing classic, elegant wines with aromatic complexity, structure and an impression of intensity without excess weight. This wine blew up on the international scene in 1976 when it earned fifth place in the Judgement of Paris wine tasting.
Renowned winemaker Paul Draper serves as CEO and winemaker at Ridge Vineyard. A Stanford graduate, Draper came to Ridge in 1969 after learning the trade in France and opening a small winery in Chile. Draper is known for his hands-off approach to winemaking, letting the terroir do most of the work defining the wines. He has been largely successful with this style, earning the '2000 Man of the Year' award from Decanter Magazine, along with many other accolades.

Lagos (Portugal)
Lagos (pronounced Lagoosh) is a city in the Algarve, in the south of Portugal.
Get in[edit]
To get to Lagos from Faro – to where many fly in from all over Europe - you take the A22 and it's about 1 hour drive (rather fast). You also can take the 125 west, the older road, that takes you through about half of the western Algarve. The 125 brings you closer to some of the interesting towns and villages of the Western Algarve. These include Albufeira, Carvoeiro, Ferragudo, Porches – with the famous Porches Pottery -, Alvor, Praia da Rocha, and then Lagos.
From Sagres (pronounced Sagresh) almost the most Western point in the Algarve you take the 125 east and drive through Salema, Burgau and Luz (pronounced Loosh). These small towns are beach communities which are undergoing massive construction to house retirees from the UK and Germany and to a lesser extent from the rest of Europe. English is very common although the number of Americans is small. The drive takes about 30 minutes at reasonable speed.
The nearest Airport is Faro(FAO) [15], about 75km from Lagos. To get to Lagos from Lisbon, you could take train or bus. To take the train, you could buy the intercity ticket, leave from Entrecampos station in Lisbon, get off in Tunes, a few stops before Faro and then change to the regional train to Lagos. The schedules are timed so that you only have to wait a few minutes. Make sure to check the strike schedule (which could happens more comonly in regional train from Tune to Lagos). To take the bus, there are 2 bus companies, EVA and Rete Expresso, run several time every days from Lisbon to Lagos and other cities in Algarve and vice versa. The trip Lisbon - Lagos is about 4 hour, very nice and comfortable pullman and you do not have to change the bus on the way. You can buy ticket online from these companies' website or in Oriente bus station or Sete Rios bus station where the buses leave.(They have separate bustation next to the public bus station in Sete Rios so make sure you do not confuse the stations!). Roundtrip bus ticket costs 36 euros (EVA) or 35 euros (Rete Expresso) with discount for students , junior and old aged people.
Get around[edit]
Lagos is a small city;you can pretty much walk everywhere. There is a bus and a train station to take you to other cities(Silves,Faro) and taxis are abundant. Walk to the beautiful sandy golden beaches.
See[edit][add listing]
There is a great variety of things to see; The city center is sculped with traditional architecture and colors from the region. Beaches vary in shape and style from long sandy beaches to almost private ones hidden by cliffs. Ponta da Piedade is a beautiful spot with a nice lighthouse from where you can make boat tours to the natural caves. The harbour in the morning is full of activity, if you like to wake up early don't miss it. Also the fish market is an interesting spot.
Do[edit][add listing]
Lagos has things to do for just about anyone, from the relaxing beaches to the exciting dolphin tours.
There is the Praia da Batata in Lagos (right across the main road) which is an absolutely beautiful location. Walking along Estr. da Ponta da Piedade a few hundred meters before the lighthouse, (after passing a café and Camila beach on your left), find a concrete fencepost on your right decorated with a spray painted eye, mouth, and two teeth. Enter the path it marks, which will take you to the edge of the cliff. A bit north (to your right) there is a cove accessible only by boat or by a rather narrow hidden mud slope with a rope pegged to the top. There are a number of beautiful, although perhaps dangerous, walks along the top of the cliffs. Another fantastic beach is Meia Praia, just the other side of the Marina, it's a huge beach with a variety of beach bars to cool off in, and widely renowned as on of the best beaches in the AlgarveLagos was chosen among 500 European destinations by the QualityCoast International Certification Program of the European Coastal & Marine Union as one of the most attractive tourist destinations for visitors interested in cultural heritage, environment and sustainability. As acknowledgement for the outstanding approach towards a sustainable policy, planning, control and enforcement-system Lagos has been awarded the QualityCoast Policy Gold in 2012.< [16]
Water Activities[edit]
One of the more popular events in Lagos are the Dolphin Tours, different companies offer tours to see dolphins. Whilst you might be unlucky and not see a dolphin, it's still worth it if you've ever wanted a ride on a high powered boat. There are many maritime activities to do in Lagos, search, compare and buy the best maritime activities on Seabookings, where you can find a wide range of activities, from boat trips, dives, kayak tours, surf lessons, coasteering, kites surf, and many other sea activities.
You can go on a motorbike and sidecar tour with Sidecar Experience; a breathtaking way to take in the wonderful scenery of South West Portugal. Tours leave from just outside the Lagos Marina office, just in front of the footbridge. There's also a company within Lagos which offers rentals of buggies, for a more exciting drive around town.
Buy[edit][add listing]
Southern Portugal is famous for its ceramics, and Lagos won't let you down. Ceramic dishes and tiles of all price ranges, styles, and colors are available. Some stores don't provide boxes for your goods, only newspaper wrapping, so ask before you buy, if it matters to you.
Portugal is also famous for its cork, in fact it's one of the largest cork producing countries on Earth. A short walk through almost any section of the town will reveal shops selling all kinds of cork products, from the usual coasters and placemats, right up to shoes, hats and handbags. Just as a note though, cork can be very expensive.
There is sometimes a small fair in front of the church near the harbor where unique clothing can be bought.
Eat[edit][add listing]
There are some wonderful family run operations in Lagos. Many of the restaurants are starving for business in the off peak time and will go way out of their way to make your visit to their restaurant a pleasurable experience. A regional speciality is chicken piri piri, barbecued chicken with the now famous piri piri sauce, truly delicious! Another local dish is the salted cod, which allegedly had 365 ways of being served, one for each day of the year.. The sardines in the Algarve are of the best in the world and local people cook them on small barbecues on their doorsteps, creating a delicious smell which wafts through the streets! Some restaurants get really busy that reservations are required several days in advance to get in when you want to. However, this generally applies to THE best restaurants in Lagos and is a good sign of the restaurant's popularity, plus it ensures that you avoid disappointment.
Drink[edit][add listing]
Lagos bars are quite fun, catering to the young back-packing crowds. Often one can find a Brit or American helping to serve drinks (for a little under the table wage). For a drink that packs a punch, try the traditional Algarve drink, Medronho, better known as fire water, another Algarve drink is the almond liqueur, delicious after a big meal!
Sleep[edit][add listing]
There is a large youth hostel in the centre of the city. However if you arrive in Lagos by bus there will usually be people there asking if you need accommodation. These are generally cheap and small, and a great option. There is a campsite near where the N125 crosses Estr. da Ponta da Piedade
Stay safe[edit]
Get out[edit]
If you want to get away from the backpacking tourists, head to Vila do Bispo. It's about an hour's bus ride from the station. From the Vila do Bispo bus stop it's about 5 kilometers to the beach. It's not a bad walk, and there are hiking trails that head off into the hills if you're interested too. The beaches are gorgeous and seem to never end. Beaches are clothing optional, but most people are clothed.

Israel News - Stay Informed, Pray Informed
"Never Again," they say, and yet even in 2012 Jews must be warned not to openly identify themselves as Jews in certain places for fear of a violent response to their ethnicity.
Such was the case in Denmark this week, where Israeli Ambassador Arthur Avnon warned visiting Israelis not to wear their skullcaps (kippot) in public, to hide any Star of David jewelry and to refrain from conversing loudly in Hebrew.
Avnon said this warning applies "irrespective of whether the areas [Israelis] are visiting are seen as being safe."
Israel Radio noted that Denmark's capital, Copenhagen, had experienced no fewer than 39 reported anti-Semitic attacks this year.
Local Jewish leaders confirmed that it has become increasingly dangerous to be seen as a Jew, and hinted that the problem stems from growing Muslim influence in the city.
A little less surprising was a report that Jordan's Ministry of Tourism and Antiquities had sent out a letter to all local tour guides instructing them to advice Israeli visitors against wearing Jewish symbols or publicly worshipping in a Jewish way.
Present-day Jordan makes up part of the biblical Land of Israel, so many Israeli visitors consider points of interest in Jordan to be holy sites, and consequently like to pray there.
But the Jordanian government said it has received numerous complaints over these outward displays of "Jewishness" and felt compelled to bring the situation under control, both for the safety of visiting Israelis and to appease the sensibilities of local Jordanians.

On The Same Poem, a poetry project of On the Same Page, the county's annual Community Read Program, has become a staple of National Poetry Month in Forsyth County. On The Same Poem is the shared community experience of reading and discussing a single poem to promote appreciation of poetry and to spark dialogue between diverse segments of the population. The project includes a luncheon with a distinguished poet at the Central Library and poetry slams and poetry contests throughout the county library system.
The On the Same Poem luncheon has become a staple of National Library Week/National Poetry Month in Forsyth County. It is a programming concept that originated at FCPL and has attracted the attention of Poet's House, a national organization that seeks to encourage innovative poetry programming in public libraries across the country. Over a brown bag lunch, the visiting poet reads his poem. Participants discuss the poem, facilitated by discussion leaders at each table, and the program concludes with question and answer with the poet.

Last night during the iPad Live podcast, while Georgia and I were discussing the rumor about Apple holding a secret iOS developer session, she conjectured that Apple might be showing developers a way to quickly make their iPad apps run on the Mac.
Crazy? Apple brought iPhone apps to the iPad, even created a 2x pixel doubling mode to support them on the larger screen. Would boxing them on a Mac screen be any crazier? Apple has also gone to the trouble of making multitouch track pads on their MacBooks and the multitouch Magic Mouse and Magic TrackPad for the Mac Mini, iMac, and Mac Pro, so while it won't be the same as direct contact on a glass screen, it might make sense for a few very popular apps. Like games.
The Mac has never been the gaming platform of choice, and Apple's reluctance to support it hasn't helped matters. But then came iOS and games for iPhone, iPod touch, and now iPad account for a hefty portion of App Store sales. Valve has come to Mac, now the App Store, and with it maybe Angry Birds?
That's what Dave Winer is thinking, and that would be quite the turn around.
Speaking of which, games that require an accelerometer and gyroscope might not work so well, or might require alternate controls on the Mac, just like some non-game apps might need UI that better fill a giant Mac LED display. Steve Jobs talked about full screen apps, however. He talked about auto-save and saved state upon relaunch. iOS developers know how to do all that, and many of them have existing, popular brands. Where full screen apps make sense, iOS developers have already figured a lot of that out and Apple might just be showing them how to make it a reality on the Mac.
The Mac App Store will open in just over 2 months. Who wants to bet we'll see a bunch of well known, just recently ported iOS apps front and center when it does? Dave Winer seems to think so. Do you?

Branches, Debris Continue to Pile Up Around Sioux Falls; 5,000 Tons Already Hauled Away
Sioux Falls officials say Ceres, the company hired for branch and debris cleanup after the April ice and snow storm, had hauled 4,971 tons of material as of Wednesday morning.
Also, TFR, the company hired for arborist work, had removed 8,006 hazardous hanging branches and 169 trees.
That's why the branch piles at the four drop-off sites are, in some cases, six stories high.
Ceres is making its second pass through the city, and officials have been asking residents to not park in front of branch piles.
But nearly 5,000 TONS of branches!
Our city will not be as leafy as usual this summer, or in the foreseeable future.
I know we still have many, many trees left, thank goodness, but as the old saying goes, the best time to plant a tree was 20 years ago.
And the second-best time to plant one is now.

Longoria, Johnson power Rays over Jays
St. Petersburg, FL – Evan Longoria homered and drove in three runs during a three-hit night, and Kelly Johnson went 3-for-4 with a two-run blast to power the Tampa Bay Rays over the Toronto Blue Jays, 10-4, in the third installment of a four-game series at Tropicana Field.
Matt Moore (6-0) didn't have his best stuff, allowing two runs on six hits and four walks over five innings, but it was enough to stay undefeated as the Rays backed him with 13 hits.
Luke Scott and James Loney each added a pair of RBI, while Ben Zobrist reached base four times, scored three runs and knocked in another for the victors.
"It's been kind of difficult lately," Rays manager Joe Maddon said. "The two losses in Kansas City were not fun, even the loss in Denver was not fun, and the two losses here. None of them have been fun. I believe we came to play every day after those tough losses. I don't think we mailed anything in after those tough losses, and that's what I really appreciate about this group."
Toronto had its three-game win streak snapped, but the club received good news earlier Wednesday when it was announced J.A. Happ was "doing well" after being released from the hospital. Happ was carried off the field on a stretcher Tuesday when he was struck by a line drive and sustained a head contusion.
The Blue Jays actually jumped out to an early lead on Edwin Encarnacion's two- run homer to straightaway center in the first, but the embattled Ricky Romero (0-2) recorded just one out in the bottom half before getting the quick hook.
Romero, an All-Star in 2011, started the year in the minor leagues following a disappointing campaign last season, and in his second start the left-hander continued his downward spiral. Two walks and a single loaded the bases, and Longoria, Loney and Scott all plated runs with base hits.
"I'm a competitor, I work hard and I put so much effort, so much work into everything that I've done and I don't see it as a step back, but obviously the statistics don't show that. But you hold your head high and continue to work," Romero said.
Edgar Gonzalez relieved Romero after Scott's single and retired the next two hitters to keep it a 3-2 game, but Johnson doubled off the middle reliever in the second and scored on Zobrist's single for a two-run lead.
Coming in, the Rays had lost 13 games in which they held a lead, including the first two of the series, but they tacked on enough runs in this one to win going away.
Gonzalez, recalled from Triple-A Buffalo to take Happ's place on the roster, was still in the game when Longoria took him deep down the left-field line in the fourth for a two-run homer and a 6-2 cushion.
After Moore struck out Mark DeRosa to leave the bases loaded in the fifth, Johnson ended Gonzalez's extended relief stint with a two-run moonshot into the right-field seats in the sixth. The Rays pushed two more across in the frame via Loney's run-scoring double and Scott's sacrifice fly.
Encarnacion's sac fly and DeRosa's RBI single in the seventh accounted for the final score.
Game Notes
Maddon, who picked up win No. 600 as Tampa Bay's manager, was ejected in the sixth inning by home plate umpire Scott Barry for arguing a foul ball call ... Romero has lost 15 of his last 16 decisions ... Gonzalez lasted 4 2/3 innings and was charged with five runs on six hits ... Toronto went 1-for-10 with runners in scoring position ... The Jays can still win their first road series against Tampa Bay since April 2007 when R.A. Dickey faces David Price in Thursday's finale.

A winner was selected from 190 designs submitted by 27 freelance designers.
Aston Strategic Accounting
We are a Chartered Accounting Firm (equivalent CPA USA) providing services in taxation, accounting and consulting. This work ranges from compliance work to asset protection and tax minimization strategies. Our firm looks to add value to a client, not just be seen once a year for the compliance work.
Small to medium enterprises in any industry.
We are looking for a logo that can be used on all letterheads, business cards, email and website.
You may use your creativity to design the logo on what you have read above and the following:
Regarding the style, the logo should be simple, clear and concise as well as dynamic, catching to the eye and progressive, but noting too playful.
Ideally would be good to have the name "Aston Strategic Accounting" in the logo design, maybe incorporating the A into the logo, but other designs that can be associated with the company name with the logo would be great to see.
Insert a small coloured graphic with the name.
The preference for colours is for something classy in the silver and navy blue range, but not restricted to those colours.
Some keywords for the design are professional, proactive, straightforward, approachable, innovative but in a conservative way.
Lean away from calculators, overly numeric concepts (like numbers) - the business is more structural, strategic than number pushing.

Suit styles was-->Fatima
These two are not the same fatima given different names are they? Who is Tower? I read somewhere that she was created by Morard. I think I know who Bactual is, but was she created by Morard too?

It should be 5 MH's at once. I remember her MH Control rating used to be written up as 3Ax5.hitori wrote:
Bucstual is a special Ballanche Fatima.
She was created solely for MH development.
She has barely enough cognitive capabilities to support MH research and no emotion.
Her unique abilities and giant head crystal enables her to control 5(or 7 according to some source) MH's at once.
Impressive. Most impressive.
Really? I've never seen Basictual with a 5 piece crystal, only the fargin large one that goes all the way across her head.She can be sometimes seen with a single piece head crystal, or with a 5 piece version.
Anyone got a pic of that? (the 5 piece crystal)
I thought she called all Mirage Knights Master. I don't think she will recognize any knight, but only those Knights that Amaterasu authorizes to utilize her abilities. That would be good because she could act as a backup Fatima for any Mirage Knight who lost his fatima in combat.She has no formal Master, but calls all Knights Master.
This is in Knight Flags, right? I remember seeing the term "LED Mirage Raid GIG" in KF, but the rest was in Japanese so I have no idea to what it referred (I figured it was yet another LED option or Variant)There is a rumor that Basictual would support the LED Mirage Raid GIG formation during the Mado Taisen with her multi-control (hence the name RAID)...not in the comics yet.
I've seen Vitter-Schasse referred to, but I've never heard of Sisisrel Chesram....and I cannot find her in the master list in FSS Volume 11 (Japanese). So who designed her/him and when?AKD has three such development purpose Fatima and the other two are Sisisrel Chesram and Vitter Schasse.

ooo.. is it possible to scan them? What info? RAID GIG or the fatimas?Mave wrote:There are some info about them on the construction manual to the 1/100 LED Mirage by Wave
I vaguely recall that RAID GIG is some kind of a system developed for coordination during a battle. Updates and information including damage, etc, is fed to all the Mirage MHs (fatimas?) for synchronisation, probably this is where Bucstual come in. Not too sure on this though, this is all based on my (failing) memory
This has gotta be the LONGEST name in FSS.
シシステルケスレム CecesterChesrem/ Sisisterel Chesram/ Kayslem etc etc. very hard to read it... LOL.. and even harder to spell it in english/ romanized form.
Her meight is アルミオン・エイポス (Alumion Aepos/ Aluminium Aepos ?) , also meight of Wilma (partner of Jog Kersher, the Pied Piper who died).

Thank you very much for the info everyone. I was wondering about that because I DID see that picture some times ago, but didn't save it. Later I saw Tower's, so I thought they were the same person, though I completely forgot that the picture had 5 crystals on Bactual's head and not the 3 as on Tower.
Good question. I think thats because they are both working for Hathuha at the time. Auxo was with Dougulus and La Hurricane with Arr Fortissimo. Proof? Just look at their respective necktie. Both have Hathuhas coat of arms (the 3 stripes in a circle) emblazoned.Why does Hurricane and Auxo have the exact same Plastic Style suit? Except Auxo's red and Hurricane's purple...I think.
Garment Style and Ice Dart style are names for fatima suits at different time periods, just like Plastics Style and Decadent style.
These are thoroughly explained in Characters 9: Plastics style.
The very first Fatima suit/fashion type are actually called Cross Face (the fatima wore masks, hence the name I think). Then comes Ice Dart, Decadent, Plastic, Current, Garment and lastly Decadent again...unless Nagano rewrites history and gives them a spiffy new style

the filter
was added, mentioning this gamestar URL
http://www.gamestar.de/videos/specials,20/oculus-rift,86946.html as the reason.
When deactivating this whitelist filter in Firefox (with ABP and only EasyList + EasyList Germany enabled), I could not reproduce any issue with playing the video.
So please remove that filter as it seems to be outdated.
Another reason why I want this whitelist filter removed is the following, though it should be irrelevant if the whitelist filter is not needed anyway:
Whitelisting that script actually breaks loading videos in uBlock (at least in Chromium, with some of ubo's own filters that circumvent the anti-adblock mechanism), e.g. on this page
http://www.gamestar.de/spiele/watch-dogs-2/artikel/watch_dogs_2,52381,3303008.html, clicking the video preview image just makes the preview image disappear, but no video player appears.
The rule
||gamestar.de/js/gamestar/my_ad_integration.min.js^$important (i.e. disabling the whitelist filter) fixes this issue in uBlock Origin.

UPDATED: MOTUC Castle Greyskull up for pre-order
Update: As of November 13th Mattel is reporting that they have received enough pre-orders to go ahead with production on this. Congrats He-Fans and She-Ravers!
I know it is not new news for some but was curious what readers thought of this On the plus side it's a Four Horsemen designed 3 level playset. On the downside it's not even a protype yet, expensive and paid for site-unseen. If you are a MOTUC collector are you in for this or passing? And why?
Pre-order Starts: October 16, 2012 9 a.m. PT
Minimum Production Goal: November 12, 2012 11:59 p.m. PT
If Goal Reached, Pre-order Ends: January 3, 2013 11:59 p.m. PT
Standing solitary in the desolate lands of Eternia®, the legendary Castle Grayskull® offers sanctuary for He-Man® and those who stand for all that is good. An essential component in the original Masters of the Universe® toy line, this long-awaited icon is finally available for pre-order. Whether you're a dedicated fan of the original series or new to the Classics line, no collection will truly be complete without Castle Grayskull®!
Our all-new Castle Grayskull® playset is slated for a late 2013 release. Because it's still in its very earliest stage, the final design is subject (and likely) to change. Why are we offering it for pre-order now and asking you to make a commitment when the design hasn't been finalized? Because the production cycle for an item like this takes over a year and is extremely costly. If we don't reach the minimum pre-order goal by November 10th, we can't go forward.
So, here's everything we can tell you at this time…
Product Features
- It's Castle Grayskull®!
- Ideally, the set will include everything shown in the "B sheet" product drawings to the left, but please remember these are working drawings and aren't final yet.
- If produced, this will be the largest, most ambitious MOTUC item ever made – the dimensions are expected to be somewhere around 25"h x 26"w x 28"d (subject to change).
- The overall sculpt will be based on the original 1981 prototype, with the addition of an extra battle ledge, elongated jaw/face, a removable minaret on top of the dome and more!
- Just like the vintage toy, it will be a two-sided foldout but there will be three levels to show off your MOTUC figures (in scale with most of our 6.5" figures). The vintage set only had two levels, but we've added another across the top for maximum display options.
- Two secret doors – the first, a traditional door that opens out the back, and the second one, a secret brick wall that exits to the outside ledge.
- Trap door leading to the dungeon (of course) that has an opening door, plus "locks" and chains to hold one figure.
- Throne fits most 6.5" MOTUC figures – who will rule your Castle Grayskull®?
- Bat wing jet pack and training device were both cut from the vintage prototype and finally get a chance at production!
- Working elevator like the '81 prototype had, but we've added back the red skull on top that was cut. The elevator goes to all three levels, not just two levels like vintage toy.
- Real opening Jawbridge just like you remember, only cooler!
- Have Wind Raider? The playset will include an attachment so you can be ready for air-battle at a moment's notice (and create a complete diorama).
- Secret Orb room is hidden inside the dome.
- Removable ladder to the roof leads to a blaster and the flag of Castle Grayskull®.
- Carrying handle is optional for easy transport or clean display.
- Did we mention… it's Castle Grayskull®!
Ordering Information
- Castle Grayskull® will only be produced if the minimum production goal is reached by November 10, 2012. If the minimum number of pre-orders is received by November 10, we'll continue to accept pre-orders through January 3, 2013.
- If production goes forward, everyone who pre-orders is guaranteed to receive a playset. Some sets will be available on MattyCollector.com after pre-orders are fulfilled, but the price will be significantly higher and you won't be guaranteed to get one. If you want one, a pre-order is the best way to ensure you get it.
- When you place your order, the card you used will be "pre-authorized" for a zero dollar amount. This pre-authorization simply verifies that the card is valid. You will NOT be charged until the item ships, at which time you'll be billed for the product, shipping costs, and any taxes/fees.
- Please note that because this item is so large, shipping charges will be substantially higher than items we normally sell. The shipping weight is 20 lbs.
- This item is scheduled for late 2013 shipment. We'll send an email reminder about a month before the product is scheduled to ship. If you need to change your address or credit card information at that time, you'll have plenty of notice.
- Should we not reach the minimum pre-order goal, your order will simply be canceled (because there's no charge until it ships, there's no refund needed).
One last thing… because this is a work-in-progress, features may be added or removed from the proposed design, but we can't confirm anything now. We're seriously as excited as you are by the prospect of finally having a Castle Grayskull® playset and Mattel will do everything to ensure we can deliver as much value as possible!

I don't know, if I were into He-man I think I'd be pretty excited, although since I'm not I don't know if there have been other Castle Greyskull playsets done since the original one. At first I thought they were asking you to commit to buying it without a finalized price, but given the size and assuming that it's well built, 250 doesn't sound completely out of the question. This seems a lot harder to get wrong than Voltron, at any rate. I know that if they made an updated version of the Ghostbuster firehouse with the same level of detail, I'd already have my wallet out.

This is a big old pass for me. No knock against the Horsemen, it looks really cool. Even the price isn't that bad all things considered. Displaying it would be a problem. MOTUC figs are about 7 inches tall, so if those drawings up there are in scale then Castle Greyskull is humongous. I'm lugging Matty Voltron all over my house because there simply isn't a decent place to plunk it down, and a giant castle playset would have the same problem. Plus, on the less rational side of things, after subbing for Voltron this year and dealing with Matty and Digital River, I kind of want to see Mattycollector go down in a flaming wreck.

As much as I hate mattycollector, I will be getting this. I am a life long MOTU fan and never had the vintage castle grayskull as a child. I'm sure the four horsemen will nail this. This is something they have wanted to sculpt since the beginning of the MOTUC line. As far as finding a place to display it, its a good thing I have a year to figure that out :) I have already preordered one.

definetly getting one. These figures are fun and look great when you have a bunch. A must have for any MOTU fan.

A Pennsylvania jewelry store owner sas the man charged with breaking into his shop tried to cash in on a reward for help solving the case.
Emile Pratt Jr. has been arrested by Sharon, Pa., police and charged with the Aug. 31 burglary of Gold Mind Jewelers, where owner Mark Multari said 100 rings worth about $10,000 were stolen. Someone, who police now believe was Pratt, broke in and smashed the glassewelry case. The alarm failed, according to the Sharon Herald.
"They knew exactly where they were going," Multari told WYTV. "They went right to our higher end estate pieces, grabbed the cases and left. Everything else in the store was intact. I mean, they walked past laptops, they walked past a case of watches, other things like that."
A day after Multari offered the unspecified reward, Pratt called and "said he would help in any way," Multari told the paper. He claimed to have heard the glass breaking.
Police charged Pratt after tracing some of the 100 items stolen in the burglary to stores and pawn shops where Pratt allegedly sold them.

» about YouKnits
All individual Youknits will always match both horizontally and vertically (although I must admit that some look better near each other than others ;-)).
Mostly the patterns will flow into each other and you won't be able to tell where one YouKnit ends and the other starts afterwards :)
Every YouKnit pattern consists of 16 stitches x 32 rows (plus a couple of stitches and rows, read more about in the how-to).
You can find the basic set and the how-to here at ravelry and the patterns by searching for YouKnits or looking at my ravelry designs page or ravelry store, see also how to use YouKnits further down this page.
» about the pictures
The pictures on the left are made to show you
- how this pattern looks when simply repeated and
- how it may look in combination with other YouKnits.
From top to bottom:
- a picture of this YouKnit repeated 3 x 3 times,
- a picture of just this YouKnit and
- pictures of combinations #3, #4 and #5 where I used this YouKnit in combination with others included
- the YouKnits distribution chart for combinations #3, #4 and #5.

To see whether you like/understand such a knitting chart and text instruction, please download the free basic set, see also try before you buy in the next paragraph.
Additionally you may want to download it, because it contains 8 more square YouKnits and all triangle YouKnits, that you would need e.g. when knitting a triangle shawl.

Before starting your first personal YouKnits design I suggest strongly that you read the how-to until the end, that will (hopefully!) make a lot of things clear :)

(what you see is what you knit ;-))
Because I find it very difficult to imagine how a repeated/combined pattern will look from charts or text instructions, a friend made us the YouKnits designer that you can reach via YouKnits.com.
Note: I purchased the domain YouKnits.com just now, in the PDF files I still give the address of my website (http://www.unikatissima.de/shop/?page_id=494).
Both addresses are valid, but I find YouKnits.com easier to memorize ;-)
The use of the YouKnits designer is free, it will provide you with a PDF file containing
- a picture of your design,
- a YouKnits distribution chart of your design and
- a list of the individual YouKnits that you've used in your personal design with links to where you can get them and their price.
Note: As for the price information: I've implemented a discount scheme to reduce the total, see point discount further up on this page.
» knit the pattern
Both this YouKnit alone and the patterns of combinations #3, #4 and #5 can directly be knitted to e.g. a scarf/shawl by repeating the one or the other as often as you like in both directions.
For a scarf/shawl you can always add a border of your choice:
- while you're knitting or added later,
- knitted or crocheted.
Or make something completely different with this YouKnit, see also what (else) to knit in the next paragraph.
Just be creative! :)
» what (else) to knit
The swatches that I knitted for the YouKnits designer were very nearly square, so I browsed the internet for patterns made from squares and devised others myself and that's what I came up with:
- YouKnits lace example diagonal scarf
- YouKnits lace example diagonal shawl
- YouKnits lace example shawl
- YouKnits lace example shawl triangle 1
- YouKnits lace example shawl triangle 2
- YouKnits lace example sweater 1a

- YouKnits lace example sweater 4
- YouKnits lace example top with shawl
- YouKnits lace example vest
- YouKnits lace example large vest 1

"Where to start? Where to start?" ;-))
Well, I started with the YouKnits vest and am now knitting the YouKnits scarf as a gift.

Age to neuter/spay Birmans?
I'm getting 2 Birman littermates. The breeder recommends not getting them altered until 8-10 months of age since this breed is slow to mature. They aren't old enough to leave Mom yet, but can come home at about 12 weeks of age. Since it's a boy & a girl I'm getting, I'm afraid of leaving it that long in case they decide to mate! I'd like to get at least one of them altered a little earlier than that. I live in an apartment & don't really have enough room to keep them separate. Is this a breed thing as far as the slow maturing goes & what harm, if any, may come with getting one of them done earlier than 8-10 months? Likely the boy, as territory marking would not smell very nice either.
I would get them done much earlier than that. I would say 4 - 5 months. Both my girls were done a little to early. I got them from the rescue at 7-8 weeks old, and they had already been spayed.
I agree with clm,even though I don't know about maturing in Birmans,only know they are beautiful cats.
My boys(cat)were all neutered at 6 months and one of them still spray on occasion.
You know we HAVE to see pics wen you get them,ok...

I would not wait until 8 months to get my cat fixed, you risk your male cat will start the habit of spraying and your female going into heat. Depending upon your vet and the equipment they are using, they will spay/neuter at 2 lbs, many like to wait until they are at least 4lbs. As for slow to maturing, is your breeder talking about the males, because it is possible that the male's testicles will fall at a later date than other cats. In my foster mutts, they fell at about 3 months (12 weeks) and were neutered at 14 wks (they were between 3 and 4 lbs).

I would think 8 to 10 months is risking a pregnancy. Male cats can sire kittens as early as 5 months. Another book I read says sexual maturity is reached at 8 to 10 months. From what I have been reading it doesn't seem like any vet can make up their mind as to when sexual maturity actually happens.
I just know from experience with mine. Some of my girls are in heat now and they are 7 and 8 months.
I know my vet won't spay a male before 6 months because of the increased risk of developing kidney stones if done earlier. IME it has always been 6 months for spays and neutures. I don't think breeds make any difference as far as being able to reproduce. A cat is a cat is a cat???

I believe that breed does make a difference, I have read in more then one book that it is not unusual for certain breeds of cats (specifically the books i was reading were persian, ragdoll and Himi books) to not go into heat, until sometimes up to 2 years of age, I recall one professional breeders website (she showed and bred, i think it was persians) where she even had a clause in the agreement if a cat was purchased with the intent to breed, that the new owners could not say the cat was unbreedable (not sure if thats a word or not lol) until the cat was 3 years of age, and still had not reproduced. As to whether you should wait that long to neuter/spay, that is a different story, on another forum there was an article in regards to early spay/neuters on puppies that suggested that those who show their dogs, not due an early spay neuter as the development of particularly male dogs, would not be the same, therefor the dog might not have the appropriate conformation for the breed. There was a study done that showed a thinner head structure compared to dogs neutered at a later age, and just an overall slimmer build to the body, as well as some brain development retardation (nothing major, but they also suggested not doing early spay/neuters for dogs involved in things like tracking, search/rescue etc.) I would suspect that the same could hold true with cats as well, although i haven't read any studies in regards to that.
A pediatric s/n has always been a contravercy.But I have done some research on it for some time.And remember cats and dogs can come into heat at 4 months.
Here is some reading.Pediatric s/n has been going on for quite a LONG time.
This is so not true.
I have 3 co-workers who have GSD's.All 3 were done at 12 weeks.2 are now SchH III titled,the other SchH II...Tracking is involved in this sport.You can sit these dogs with any other that was done later(like mine) and you would never tell the difference.I will have to try and get some pics.

Here is the link for the information that I was mentioning,
In so far as the statement
You cannot show your dog for conformation if it has been s/n. You can under two circumstances
1) Junior Handlers can show a spayed/neutered dog for conformation
2) Specialty shows you are allowed to show s/n dogs
As for the whole working dog brain developement thing, although my choice of words (brain development retardation) was perhaps a poor choice of words, and did not accurately describe what I was trying to say, neither did I say that it would be impossible to train a dog for working "stuff" schutz, tracking, herding etc. The proper choice of words, would probably have been more along the lines of cognitivie function may be decreased etc. I was working without having the article directly on hand, so it was all having to come out of my memory ; ) which isn't perfect suffice to say lol
This is just teaching them what the conformation shows are all about.It's practice for them.
There are a few comments I'd like to make in regards to something mentioned in that link.But that's going off topic..I stopped being a thread jacker quite some time ago.........
canuckgirl,personally I wouldn't wait till 8-10 months.Cats can go into heat at 4 months.
Pediatric s/n are so much easier on the kittens.They heal much quicker.And I have seen that with my guys.My two that were done at 8 weeks were bouncing around in no time.With my male Casper,they actually used a glue and not stitches.That was different.Winnie had about 3-4 stitches.All my cats are happy and healthy.

What Day Do the Bangor Pools Open?
It seems like summer, or at least the hot weather, comes around a little later here in Bangor than in other parts of the country, but there's still plenty of time to enjoy the pools for people who want to beat the heat without leaving the city.
City officials have planned a Saturday, June 18, 2016 opening of Hayford Park's Beth Pancoe Municipal Aquatic Center and the East Side's Dakin Pool.
The Pancoe pool, completed in 2004 with the help of $1.4 million donation from author Stephen King and his wife Tabitha, is named in honor Beth Pancoe, a Bangor High School diver whose family lived next to the Kings on West Broadway. She died in 1999 after a battle with leukemia.
