Warmonger Miniatures is running our eighth Kickstarter. Help us add this one to our list of success stories (Great Swords, Arquebusiers, Crossbowmen, Halberdiers, Reiter, Ritter and Falkonet).
In a nutshell, I'm a Warmaster gamer who's after a Dogs of War army where I don't have to worry about out-of-production models, conversions and size differences between ranges. 10mm Landsknechte fit the bill here, plus they could find a home in an Empire or historical army as well.
The Miniatures
There are five unit options this time around:
Mörsers auf Rädern
A unit of two wheeled mortars and six crew.
Statischer Mörsers
A unit of two static mortars and six crew.
A unit of two organ guns and six crew.
A unit of two volley guns and six crew.
A unit of eighteen crew.
Extra units are available at a price determined by your pledge level:
- $10.00 per extra unit if you pledged at the "Donation" or "2 Units" levels.
- $9.50 per extra unit if you pledged at the "4 Units" level.
- $9.00 per extra unit if you pledged at the "8 Units" level.
Bases will not be available this time as I can no longer source them locally.
You can order other landsknecht units as well at their normal price. Simply indicate what you're after on the reward survey you're sent after the Kickstarter has been funded. I'll invoice you for these additional units along with the shipping (see below).
Once the units are ready to be shipped I will invoice you for an additional fee to cover postage. Please note that these are estimates. I was liberal when calculating the weight of the units so hopefully they won't be higher. Add-ons will affect the cost of postage.
United States
- $4.00 for 1 to 4 units.
- $7.50 for 5 to 32 units.
- $14.50 for 33 or more units.
Rest of the World
- $15 for 1 to 4 units.
- $24 for 5 to 22 units.
- $37 for 23 to 54 units.
- $60 for 55 or more units.
Risks and challenges
The units are sculpted and a master mold has been cut. If this Kickstarter fails to be funded I will just have to produce them at a later date (after I've recouped some of the costs from other sales).
In terms of a time-frame, I figure production molding and casting in January and shipping in February. If that changes you'll be seeing an update from me here.Learn about accountability on Kickstarter

Choosing a Bank Stock: 3 Key Metrics
"I had nothing to offer anybody except my own confusion." -- Jack Kerouac
When it comes to banks, I'm about as confused as anyone. However, that is precisely what I have to offer, because for many of us, analyzing banks can be pretty darn confusing, and that means we need to start from the beginning.
Our challenge is clear: Together we'll learn how to evaluate banks well enough to invest in one -- not run one -- and that's exactly what we'll stick to. And we'll start with the three most important metrics when analyzing a bank:
- Net interest margin (NIM)
- Nonperforming loans
- Capital ratio
Today, we'll dig in and see how U.S. Bancorp -- widely held as one of the more efficiently run banks in the country -- stacks up against other leading U.S. banks in these three key areas.
NIMs the word
Net interest margin (NIM) is one of the most common ways to track a bank's lending and investing profitability. It's done by dividing net interest income -- the difference between revenue created by interest-bearing assets and interest payments on liabilities -- by average interest-earning assets.
In practice, it's most useful when comparing a company to itself over time. For instance, U.S. Bancorp's NIM was 3.88% in 2010, 3.65% in 2011, and 3.58% in 2012.
In comparison, PNC's NIM went up 0.02% to 3.94% from 2011 to 2012, and BofI Holding's NIM has been steadily trending upwards since 2010 -- 3.79% in 2013.
Okay, while U.S. Bancorp's margins are shrinking, and that's never a good sign, NIM alone can't tell us the whole story; for that, we'll have to do some more digging.
Loan performance
In theory, a bank generates revenue by collecting interest on what it lends out. And much of the time, that's exactly what happens, but in some cases, loans never get paid back. This is our game changer, because while the concept of loans not being repaid isn't new, how a bank is able to cut down on these "nonperforming loans" is critical.
Consider again PNC's NIM of 3.94% versus U.S. Bancorp's 3.58%. At a glance, PNC looks to be in better shape; however, 1.75% of PNC's loans are nonperforming, while just under 1% of U.S. Bancorp's loans are nonperforming (including covered assets).
BofI is leading the pack with nonperforming loans of 0.8%.
Ultimately, we'd hope to see improved margins while cutting down on nonperforming loans. And as it sits now, PNC and BofI have been steadily improving both metrics. On the other hand, while U.S. Bancorp's NIM seems to be moving in the wrong direction, it's made up for it by making smart loans.
Capital requirement
This is how much capital a bank should be holding compared to the money it's lent out. The more capital available, the more likely the bank can sustain losses while still covering withdrawals.
There are a number of different capital ratios, but for simplicity sake, we'll use total assets divided by shareholders equity. U.S. Bancorp has $354 billion in total assets and $39 billion in shareholder's equity, giving it a capital ratio of 9.07, down from 10 in 2011.
PNC's ratio went from 7.9 in 2011 to 7.8 in 2012, while BofI's dropped slightly as well, from 10.6 in 2012 to 10.2 in 2013. While there's hope we'll continue to see equity cushions increase, all three companies more than meet the required standard.
Time to invest
All three companies have strong margins, though I would like to see U.S. Bancorp's NIM start growing. Each has proven its ability to make smart loans, and all three have more than met their capital requirements.
However, as much as I'd like to say yes, it's not quite time to invest yet. While financial metrics are a great tool, they're just that, a tool. To feel truly comfortable investing your money in a company for the next 10, 20, or 30 years, we'll need to dig in further. So stay tuned as we continue to crack into U.S. Bancorp while moving forward in our quest to understand banks well enough to invest.

Harried Beecher Stowe was born in Litchfield, Connecticut, and penned Uncle Tom's Cabin, the book narrating the underground railroad of pre-Civil War and Abolitionist America. The story of Uncle Tom depicts the harshness of slavery and the use of faith to overcome human cruelty and malicious intent. Written in 1852, the book was one of the greatest texts in print next to the Bible and Abraham Lincoln remarked her book sparked the need for the civil war.
It is interesting to think that a woman born in this State sparked the beginning of emancipation, but that the state of Connecticut, today, has still figure out a solution to creating equitable opportunities for youth of all ethnicities and races.
Stowe's novel was criticized for its portrayal and stereotypes but did create many sparks as an antislavery device. Today is February 29th, a leap year that allows one extra day to recognize Black history. I use this date to nod my respect for a novel that was influential to my undergraduate days and life history as a teacher.

How did a popular regional Hindu deity become synonymous with unstoppable forces and the death of Jesus Christ? The work of missionaries is often controversial, and through an analysis of the vitriol on the subject of the god Jagannath spread by evangelicals in the 19th century, we can observe the cultural hatred and destruction bred by missionaries, whilst also understanding why they feel the need to convert, and the good works they do around the world.

Stream the new album by Laurel Halo via Pitchfork.
It's a definite masterpiece and that's immediately question-proof.
Nikola Tamindzic, Eating a Barnett Newman, 2010
Crude Thought on what a Perfect Pussy is
The paucity of intergenital agreements to lubricate my conflicted, dry adult life might be ascribed to my aesthetic desire for a better pussy that eventually renders the erotic promises of any given night into one pathetic Kleenex appreciation session or two. Beggars can't be choosers, but this poor beggar, ninety-nine out of a hundred, chooses to keep starving rather than appease his hunger with a cup noodle variety that's almost thrown at him. Maybe he's a dreamy romanticist; in his own ludicrous bubble, he is rich and in search of a fancy restaurant to patronize where delicious carnal dishes are served at a price his love can afford. But pop the bubble and he has never seen a better pussy, much less a perfect one, well, until today. So, guess what he wants to do now? Yeah, that was a good guess. He wants to brag about and even share his coup that is the sweaty, synesthetic pleasure he had with the perfect pussy and he just did that as shown below.
I bet 10 euro I still haven't changed to Korean won after coming back from my recent trip to Amsterdam that Karen O will maneuver Perfect Pussy into opening for Yeah Yeah Yeahs in a few months' time, provided that she's still putting out feelers to discover and support outstanding new female-led rock bands. Despite the Pitchfork-compatibility in their music (I must admit I got to know this band from a Paper magazine article), I am hopeful that Perfect Pussy won't follow the case of Be Your Own Pet the energy of whose early days was almost on a par with that of Perfect Pussy at the moment. Perfect Pussy will certainly get big (in a Fucked Up sense) sooner than later, but not in that castratingly petted way. Because they sound and look just so… innocent.
And more to your listening and viewing pleasure, I also post a scorching live video of my other favorite girl-fronted punk rock band, Crude Thought, whose singer/screamer's cute looks only add to the piercing ferocity of their music. A matchmaker in me convinces me that Crude Thought and Perfect Pussy can be happily married on a split single or EP. Anyone? I can't even find my match. So, that's about it. You heard my Crude Thought on what a Perfect Pussy is…
Nyun of the Month (most likely the Year)
I sleep in late
Another day
Oh what a wonder
Oh what a waste.
It's a monday
It's so mundane
What exciting things
Will happen today?
The yard is full of hard rubbish it's a mess and
I guess the neighbours must think we run a meth lab
We should ammend that
I pull the sheets back
It's 40 degrees
And i feel like i'm dying.
Life's getting hard in here
So i do some gardening
Anything to take my mind away from where it's sposed to be.
The nice lady next door talks of green beds
And all the nice things that she wants to plant in them
I wanna grow tomatoes on the front steps.
Sunflowers, bean sprouts, sweet corn and radishes.
I feel pro-active
I pull out weeds
All of a sudden
I'm having trouble breathing in
My hands are shaky
My knees are weak
I can't seem to stand
On my own two feet
I'm breathing but i'm wheezing
Feel like i'm emphysem-in'
My throat feels like a funnel
Filled with weet bix and kerosene and
Oh no, next thing i know
They call up triple o
I'd rather die than owe the hospital
Till I get old
I get adrenalin
Straight to the heart
I feel like Uma Thurman
Post-overdosing kick start
Reminds me of the time
When i was really sick and i
Had too much psuedoefedryn and i
Couldn't sleep at night
Halfway down high street, andy looks ambivalent
He's probably wondering what i'm doing getting in an ambulance
The paramedic thinks i'm clever cos i play guitar
I think she's clever cos she stops people dying
Anaphylactic and super hypocondriactic
Should've stayed in bed today
I much prefer the mundane.
I take a hit from
An asthma puffer
I do it wrong
I was never good at smoking bongs.
I'm not that good at breathing in

Passenger traffic in Asia-Pacific and Middle East grew 7% and 12.3% respectively in November 2016
In Asia-Pacific, robust domestic passenger travels continued to fuel India's growth trajectory with many airports generating substantial increase in November 2016 over the same period last year: Calcutta (CCU) +26.6%, Bangalore (BLR) +26.0%, Hyderabad (HYD) +24.7%. In China, sizable growth was observed in both domestic and international passenger travels. The top runners were: Chengdu (CTU) +22.5%, Xi'an (XIY) +14.2% and Kunming (KMG) +14.1%.
Elsewhere in the region, Auckland (AKL) posted an increase of +12.4% in November 2016 driven primarily by new seat capacity; the airport has been on a growth momentum since late 2015 and consistently reporting double-digit monthly increase.
In the Middle East, current month's passenger traffic growth regained strength. Dubai (DXB), the largest hub in the region, recorded +9.4% more passengers than the same month last year. Doha (DOH) was the bright spot in the region delivering growth at +23.3%, its highest monthly growth thus far in 2016.
In terms of air freight, both Asia-Pacific and Middle East delivered strong results growing at +9.5% and +9.9% respectively recovering from a stagnant market that persisted from the end of 2015 to early 2016.
Current month's growth in Asia-Pacific was largely driven by increased demand for the year-end rush, plus new cargo flows likely generated from e-commerce. The top three freight hubs all delivered robust increase: Hong Kong (HKG) +7.1%, Shanghai Pudong (PVG) +11.6% and Seoul Incheon (ICN) +9.5%.
In the Middle East, major air freight hubs continued to report significant gains in November especially in Doha (DOH) +24.6% and Dubai (DXB) +7.5%.

EIB: EUR 196 million by UniCredit Bank
Services, SME Policy, Trade,Research centres,Local and Regional authorities,Schools,Corporations,Training centres,Federations Unions,Administrations States,Agencies Chambers,Development NGOs,SMEs,Non-profit organisations,Banks,Investment Funds,International Organisation,
The European Investment Bank (EIB) closed on 15 December 2014 the purchase of a EUR 196 million covered bond issued by UniCredit Bank Czech Republic and Slovakia, a.s (UniCredit Bank CZ&SK). The bond forms part of UniCredit Bank CZ&SK's EUR 5 billion international covered bond programme, which was launched last year. This first international bond has an issue size of EUR 800 million and an annual nominal coupon of 1.875%, with bullet maturity in December 2018. The EIB is the first investor to purchase the UniCredit Bank CZ&SK covered bond under this international programme; other investors are expected to join in 2015, when other covered bond transactions may follow.
This is the first time that the EIB has purchased a covered bond in the Czech Republic. The objective for the EIB behind this transaction is twofold:
- To increase its support to the Czech and Slovak SME sector – the EIB purchased the bond as loan substitute, which means that UniCredit Bank CZ&SK will use the proceeds of the sale to expand its medium/long-term funding to SMEs in the Czech Republic and Slovakia on attractive terms
- To support the emerging Czech covered bond market – the EIB sees high potential in this bond market, which in the current market and regulatory environment constitutes an attractive alternative for channelling EIB funding to investment projects.

When I was studying architecture in Spain, we came across many foreign students as they used to lunch at our cafeteria. Many came and went and as they did, their Spanish adventure companions changed for those who stayed. As a result, we would be constantly introduced to new friends.
I think the real social networking champion was Dan, who was/is lovely… Through Dan we met many people, even when he moved back to NYC he still introduced new faces to our circle. And, of course, those new faces introduced us to further new ones. This is how we met Rob. A lovely cyclist from West Virginia who was running in the Basque Country at the time.
Rob was a very mellow character and there were lots of things that made us appreciate his friendship. Admittedly, one of those was the lovely relationship he had with Lori, his then girlfriend (now wife) with whom he had so much in common… Including a passion for good food and her pancakes recipe. Hers, he explained, were the best he had ever tasted, and so he had wanted to bring the recipe to San Sebastian in order to make them when she wasn't with him… Yes, that's right, we got the recipe of The famous Lori's pancakes!
Before she corrects me, I need to say that the original amounts, as explained to me by Rob, were based on the size of a glass which is very common in Spain, but over the years, and having moved to the Uk , I was forced to measure the in ml in order to perpetuate the recipe beyond the Spanish glass industry…. Which by now would have probably moved to China, anyway.
Cooking time:
Quantity: this mix makes six pancakes of around 12 cm diameter
1. I would recommend that you make the mix and leave it covered for at least an hour, in order for the baking soda to develop. Your pancakes will be fluffy.
2. Use a small non-stick pan and make one at the time. You need to focus as the bubbles will tell you when to turn the pancake around.
3. A lovely Greek colleague of mine, Anna, who is a massive foodie and has an USA-ian as a partner ( America is a continent, so I apologise for any confusion), recently recommended me to have these with a lovely piece of grilled bacon rather than with the sweet maple syrup . I think, and I am biased because I love bacon, that this is was a genius suggestion.
1 large egg
2 tablespoons of sugar
2 tablespoons of oil
150 ml milk
200 ml of flour
2 teaspoons of baking soda
A pinch of salt
Butter for cooking them
To accompany:
6 slices of bacon
Or maple syrup
Or both!
Cooking instructions:
I whisk the egg first, then add the sugar and whisk together. Then add the milk and the oil and whisk until smooth.
In a separate bowl, I sift the flour and the baking soda. Add a pinch of salt and mix.
Add the dry mix to the wet one slowly and whisk constantly avoiding building up of lumps.
Cover it and leave it to mature at room temperature. If it is a hot summer day, this might not be such a good idea. I therefore advise you leave it less time.
When you are about to cook, place the pan on the small hob, medium heat, and butter the bottom of it.
Using a medium ladle, take a lead full of the mixture and pour it over the pan. The idea is to make a circle of a 3/4 mm depth. If you need to shape it etc, do this quickly using a wooden/ bamboo spoon. Then leave the mix to cook.
You will see bubbles building up and the mix looking "dry" that is the time to flip it/ turn it. If when you turn it, it looks too cooked, do reduce the heat to minimum.
The other side is generally quicker to cook because of the heat build up and because you have cooked it mainly on the other side. Be mindful. This is how I was taught and this is how
I cook it, but you need to test your own equipment to make sure that you are happy with the results.
If you are having bacon, you can begin to cook it once you have made the first pancake and know how long it takes and how you want to work. You can either grill it in the oven or fry it, with almost no oil, in the pan.

Britain and the EU
Britain and the EU: in or out?
Britain's relations with the EU have reached a critical juncture. Responses to the present economic crisis in the EU entail solutions that are likely to lead to a deeper economic, fiscal, and ultimately political union in the years to come. Meanwhile, the current UK government is adopting increasingly Eurosceptic positions, threatening to veto EU policy developments and moving towards a renegotiation of the country's relationship with the EU. This is leading the UK to re-examine the merits of its EU membership. The mood in Brussels, too, has changed. Accommodating London's requests used to be seen as a necessary price to pay for Britain's EU membership. But today there is growing impatience with the UK's aloofness from the integration process and the potential for the country to block crucial developments in eurozone governance.

Set up more than a century ago, Denmark's Nordisk Film is a major regional producer and buyer of films. Now the company is looking to build on high-profile successes such as the Millennium trilogy.
When Danish cinema owner Ole Olsen bought a movie camera in 1906 and filmed in a meadow in Valby outside Copenhagen, he had little idea his small enterprise, Nordisk Films Kompagni, would still be active some 104 years later.
In 2010 Nordisk Film is still based in Valby, and is still using the logo of a polar bear on top of the world that Olsen had designed after his 1907 film, The Polar Bear Hunt. With operations in Denmark, Sweden, Norway and Finland, Nordisk is today one of the largest film companies in the region, with interests spanning film and TV production, distribution, exhibition, music and electronic games.
Although managing director Allan Mathson Hansen characterises 2009 as "a difficult year," the company posted a $72.6m (DKR397m) profit - up 56% on 2008. This is mainly down to its Scandinavian distribution operations - Nordisk controlled 26% of the Scandinavian theatrical market last year and scored big hits with the Millennium trilogy - its 17 Danish multiplexes (it also has one in Norway) and proceeds from Sony's PlayStation in Scandinavia, where Nordisk is the official distributor.
Encouraged by the result, Nordisk is ready to launch a "controlled offensive", eyeing growth both at home and abroad. "Nordisk will still produce and distribute the best films in the Nordic countries. At the same time, we're one of the few players with enough clout to back big projects with international potential," explains Hansen. "We also see continuing growth in our theatrical operation in Denmark, where last year we sold more than 6 million tickets."
Hansen says the company will build more cinemas and combine the traditional film experience with live entertainment. A third strategic focus is on PlayStation consoles and games. "We also see a large potential in managing Sony's online sales and producing/distributing digital content for online platforms, both games and entertainment," Hansen explains. "After all, Nordisk's motto is, 'We bring stories to life.'"
Since 1906, Nordisk Film has been Denmark's leading producer of popular quality entertainment. The producer of Denmark's first talkie and first colour films, the company also created the legendary Olsen Gang series which is shortly to be revived, fully animated, as The Olsen Gang Gets Polished - Denmark's first feature in stereoscopic 3D.
Today Nordisk produces around 35 films per year, either in-house or as purchases from production outfits across the region partly owned or associated with Nordisk. These include Zentropa, in which Nordisk has a 50% stake, A. Film, Fine & Mellow, Neo Film, Maipo Film & TV Produksjon, StellaNova and Solar Films.
"Our trademark is still high-quality entertainment and our ambition is still to reach broad audiences," says Thomas Heinesen, head of production and development at Nordisk Film Production. "Our in-house product is focused on the [local] market, since our stories are rooted in the real world right outside our windows. In the same way, the films from our outfits in the other parts of Scandinavia relate to their own realities."
Heinesen points to Niels Arden Oplev's Worlds Apart, Nils Malmros' Aching Hearts and Tobias Lindholm and Michael Noer's acclaimed prison drama, R, as examples of ambitious local dramas that have scored at the local box office.
Besides local fare, Nordisk is preparing a $19m adaption of Swedish author PO Enquist's 1999 bestseller The Royal Physician's Visit, to be directed by Lasse Hallstrom. The film will shoot from late 2010.
Another major project is Kon-Tiki, about Norwegian scientist Thor Heyerdahl's 1947 expedition which saw him voyage 8,000km on a wooden raft. Scheduled to go into production this month, the $17.2m (€ 14m) 3D film will be co-produced by the UK's Recorded Picture Company and will be directed by Norway's Espen Sandberg and Joachim Ronning (Max Manus).
Kon-Tiki will be one of around 35 features which head of Nordic co-productions and acquisitions Lone Korslund delivers annually for theatrical and DVD distribution, either in Denmark or all of Scandinavia, or for international sales through TrustNordisk, the result of a 2008 merger between Trust Film Sales and Nordisk Film International Sales.
Besides Kon-Tiki, Korslund has high expectations for Mannerheim, Renny Harlin's return to Finnish film-making, a new instalment of the Vares crime-thriller series from Solar Films, and Truth And Consequence, the next project from Swedish director Jan Troell. The company is also adapting a range of projects from the region's growing number of successful crime writers, including projects based on books by Jussi Adler-Olsen, Jo Nesbo, Liza Marklund, Arne Dahl and Gunilla Bergstrom.
A further 35 international features for distribution by Nordisk are acquired annually by Peter Philipsen, general manager, independent acquisition and distribution. On the look-out for "genre-defined product with a strong cast", Philipsen has output deals with Summit Entertainment and Relativity Media. Recent acquisitions include The Extraordinary Adventures Of Adele Blanc-Sec, Made In Dagenham, Nowhere Boy and The Eagle Of The Ninth.

Head-pieces, beautiful hand lettering – and, hugely necessary for all of your keepsakes, bags – make your own! And remember, Visual Arts has moved this year!
There's nothing like being in a cathedral constructed of tall trees and wide sky, deep blue and star-studded. The gentle grassy slope of the Amphitheatre gives way to a mosh-pit the size of a football field, with space for 25,000 to enjoy outdoor concerts and ceremony under the stars. The Amphi is home to our Welcome Ceremony, four nights of fantastic feature concerts a New Year's extravaganza and the annual Fire Event. Two bars – the Amphi and True North – mean that you'll be well refreshed if you plan on staying up here for the night.
Atelier is Artisania's home of gourmet life drawing, pressed metal making and wine and watercolour.
Big Ideas
Find the silliest, funniest you with daily clowning workshops; experience art through Paint What you Hear or test your knowledge of the fuzzy and furry with Wildlife Puzzle Time. Learn chess and be in a tournament! Land in kitchen chaos and mix up a whirl of a culinary good time.
Big Paint
The Children's Festival's craft workshop hub is where a plethora of activities abound including costume creating, candle decorating, sock puppet creations, storytelling and many more activities turning nothing into a wonderful something.
Bill's Bar
The closest that we'll ever get to having a 'backstage' bar, Bill's Bar occupies a tucked away corner of the site, but explodes with activity first thing at the blink of your bleary eye – from the morning yuk it up sessions, to special intimate sessions with a plethora of artists who've wandered in from across the programme. A fine place for a drink, eat and catch up with new and old friends, over entertainment. Each afternoon is punctuated with new discoveries at Rob Longstaff's UpFront Club Open Stage.
Blue Lotus
Pick up a cup of herbal tea and head to the Blue Lotus, nestled in a beautiful shady creek-side grove – the Festival's home of wellness and healing. Talks, workshops and forums invite conversation from some of Australia's premier practitioners and open the door for involvement. The Blue Lotus hosts meditation in motion, and then by night dance and out-there musical chanting and meditation experiences. The Blue Lotus is a venue for adventures of the heart, mind and soul. BYO yoga mat and water to all yoga classes. All sessions before 8:30AM are available for Season Campers only.
Nestled snugly into a natural amphitheatre, Bluestown is a jewel, a hideaway dance shack to sweat it out with soloists, new bands, old bands, up and comings, and International super-stars – it's all brands of the Blues in a smokin' hot venue, and home to Jack's Bar.
Settle in for hands on craft and art activity – with sandal making, tiny gardens, print design and wildlife drawing!
Tricks, toys, and tons of fun, that's what you can expect at Circadia, a play space for all ages. Set inside a cheerful circus tent, with plenty of room on the grass outback, when it comes to getting hands-on in circus, this is your place. Workshops by day provide the opportunity to try stilts, diablo, juggling, manipulation, acro and more. Woodfordians aged 13 and over can drop in for a one-off workshop, or set yourself a challenge for a week's worth of new skills' with shows demonstrating skills that you can pick up later!
Circus Lair
This Children's Festival venue hosts plate-spinning, diablo, acro-balancing, tightropes, performance circus and more.
Circus returns with more seats, more splendour and more spectacle in Cirque, a giant circus tent rising proudly just inside the gates to the Festival – and also returning in a special home just to the side, circus's wingman, Rumpel, our favourite fool.
Coopers Bar
Woodford's tradition of participation comes alive in the festival's cracking public house, the Coopers Bar. Tunes and songs ring out, beckoning Woodfordians to gather their instruments, limber up the vocal chords and join the fray. From foot-tapping Celtic tunes to good old-time and bluegrass standards; rollicking sea shanties to Beatles hits, there's something for everyone in these acoustic sessions. Use the Music Instrument Cloakroom (MIC) to store your instruments while on site, for a small fee.
Dance Hall
From yoga to folkloric dance through to cultural dance parties every night, the Dance Hall is the place to go to get physical – let's hear your body talk. Listen with your feet and hear other languages translated into a myriad of dance possibilities through workshops, performances and concerts. Indigenous Australian, Hip Hop, Balkan, Ritual Dance, English Vintage Dance, Salsa and a variety of Indian dance workshops will prepare you for dance events that offer a dance/show experience guaranteed to have you swing, saunter, samba and salsa your way through your six days.
Earth and Stone
Sculpt the earth into pots, cups, or decorative pieces that are yours to keep in wheel thrown pottery workshops.
Embedding Peace
Nearly 50 years on from John and Yoko Lennon's ground-breaking Montreal Bed-In for Peace, it's time to raise the banner for peace once more. Carrying on the work of late, great Brisbane rock writer Ritchie Yorke, John and Yoko's confidant and peace envoy for their War is Over Campaign, Embedding Peace want to reach a new generation of peace activists and give them the encouragement and tools to really Give Peace A Chance.
Far Out
When we need lots of space and lots of air, we head outside in the Children's Festival!
Folklorica is the main host for the World Folklines programme, which presents the rituals, dance, music and songs of the many folk traditions that have come to Australia over the past 220 years. Folklorica comfortably seats a couple of hundred Woodfordians – many of whom come to Woodford to specifically seek this rich programme at a lovely, breezy venue.
Folklorica Outdoor Stage
Take your seat under the stars and the Crow's Ash for Indian, African and Scottish features.
General Store
Not so much a venue as a meeting place for Festival walks and wanders, and the place to stock up on those things you've forgotten and run out of. Most Walks and Wanders start here.
Our second largest venue, the Grande is in a beautiful grassy natural amphitheatre with ample shade, so you can choose how close you get to the music. The Grande has seen it all – folk heroes, jazz luminaries, rockstars, solo pianists aided with a bottle of red, and some pretty incredible countdowns to the New Year. Rock, world, folk, dance, speakers and instrumental excellence, it's all on stage at the Grande.
Settled comfortably into a leafy glade, the GREENhouse is a hive of activity for the honest and hopeful, respectful and resolute, the critical and concerned, awake and aware. Amidst a fantastic programme of green and social ideas and issues, you can ask questions, network and share your knowledge and experience with farmers, scientists, futurists, green innovators, comedians and all manner of experts who willingly share their wisdom and experience.
Before the Festival begins, this is the lively workers' bar and kitchen, roots that are retained when the venue moves into its 6 day role as the hub of the Festival. Duck and dive into banjo, guitar, sweet harmony, a capella, interesting instrumentals, percussion sessions or just laze around in the cool new environs of this year's transformation – you may see echoes of the past. Halcyon Days are here again!
The Hilltop is home to our tongue-in-cheek Hollywood style 'Woodfordia' sign and is a great place to retreat, relax and enjoy stunning views of the Glasshouse Mountains and get a different perspective of the Festival. Greet the day with unplugged guided yoga sessions, make the annual pilgrimage along a winding lantern lit path to the Hilltop to enjoy the final sunset of the old year during the Sunset Ceremony and renew your spirit as the inspiring New Year's Sunrise Ceremony announces the dawn of the New Year over the crooked back of Mt Beerwah.
In Stitches
Weave and stitch – crochet, radical embroidery and slightly off-centre, kokodama, in Artisania's dedicated weaving venue.
Jinibara Gallery
Jinibara custodians and artists have been crafting artefacts throughout the year, for demonstration and sale at the Jinibara Gallery. Clapsticks, woomera and spears are among the beautiful work that you can explore here.
Sacred Union Labyrinth
Robin Clayfield and her troupe of ceremony weavers, musicians and artists create a magical space to enjoy at your leisure or in community ceremony, walking meditations or by receiving beautifully penned inspirations. Djuelu the Village Scribe can capture your musings, and beautiful music may accompany those wandering the Labyrinth in their own time. Make sure to check the venue schedule for formal ceremonies.
Lettering House
Since its humble beginnings in Artisania in 2013, The Letting House has awoken a new and thundering passion for the hand-written word. Letter writers and receivers flood this space daily to experience this one-of-a-kind postal service. The Lettering House opens its doors daily, providing stationary with a twist, some study desks and a typewriter or two. Postage is free for all onsite missives or $2 to post offsite. Please note that the posties do their best to deliver every letter, but can not guarantee delivery onsite, especially after the 31st. All letters must be collected by 5.00PM on the 1st, or they are consigned to the flames…
Library of the Leaves
On Chill Hill amongst the waving grasses and the prone patrons you'll find an eclectic, tiny library, with tomes on topics ranging from Art History to the Da Vinci Code. Leave(s) your cares behind and relax with a good book (or a terrible one as a guilty pleasure).
This newly placed space in the centre of the Festival offers concerts for listening, gigs for dancing, comedy for laughing, morning talks and daily discoveries, as well as the Festival Director's report on the final day. There's something for everyone here, and you'll fall under the spell of La Luna while time stands still for a cool little while, and the buzz continues around you.
Mind Games
The home of learning in the Children's Festival features explorations of frogs, bees, dance, and the wonderful minds of Woodfordia's Children.
Mish Mash
Specially programmed within the Children's Festival for the preschool ages 1-5 years old, this venue offers a swag of fun and simple workshops that will keep little fingers busy along with music and dance.
Find the One Ring to Rule Them All – or something like it, when you create your own silver ring or necklace in the Nook.

Out There

Over the past five years in the town of Groningen, Steven Schreuder has built a Forrest paradise that combines his steel craft workshop with his living space. Every fitting is a work of art. Two years ago Ptisi Hatcher arrived in the Forrest adding circus to the mix. Watch them rebuild their home from Paradijsvogelstraat (Bird of Paradise street) as an installations space that can be viewed, experienced through workshops or watched as it comes to life with performance. This is unique installation where beauty is found in the re-visioning of objects, the natural environment becomes a wealth of materials and anything seems possible.
The Parlour embraces the wordy and the wordless as impassioned poeticals and simmering circus and burlesque artists sidle up for a slice of the best romance, comedy and good times. With workshops and stage shows – and this year, Bling Bingo, the Parlour is the place to get your fancybone tickled in a variety of ways, from cabaret to comedy, vaudeville to old-fashioned swing and soul. The Parlour Bar sets the tone of the entertainment, here.
Pineapple Lounge
The home of Champine, the Pineapple Lounge provides the ambience and warmth of a welcoming domestic loungeroom as well as a swinging little refreshment bar serving a highly gluggable drink made with fresh pineapple. With an eclectic programme and daily chalkboard style event featuring the best of the fest, the Pineapple Lounge in all of its infamy serves up daily sub-tropical sounds both live and looped tempting you into a sub-tropical world-within-a-festival-world.
A place for ceremony and reflection (literally), the Pond is home to four nights of spectacular shows from 7.00PM – 7.30PM. It's also the place where our Festival Bell tolls to commence the 3 Minutes of Silence.
Puppet Joint
Pull a few strings and discover the Puppet Joint. Puppets of all persuasions- sock and glove puppet making, puppet performance pranks and puppet stuff. A plethora of puppet ponderings prevail, not to mention story telling.
Sidewood Wine Bar
Head to the Sidewood when you're feeling chatty and playful, for a drink near the watering hole, or to hear a few tunes by night.
Small Hall
The Festival of Small Halls has found its true spiritual home, a tiny venue modelled on the country halls of Queensland (most specifically, Degilbo). Small, high quality ensembles, gentle and emotive folk music, and a scattering of workshops revive the tradition of a community meeting place and listening room, complete with porch, scones and tea (on the first and last days, anyway). By night the venue briefly transforms for the Tiny Dance Experience, where a limited number of tickets are available for would-be dancers to learn some steps and then party hard for 30 minutes.
Stardust Theatre
Stardust Theatre presents the best of Children's Festival entertainment – puppetry, performance, mime and music.
Story Line
Express yourself in the collaborative illustrative/word mashup/storytelling of zines and general creative time.
The streets of Woodfordia belong to all of us – perusing the craft stalls for treasures from other lands, becoming spellbound by surreal street characters and fantastical parades or sitting down to a meal from the many stalls offering mouthwatering, healthy or indulgent foods. The Streets are one of the most wonderful ways to feel the effects of the 3 Minutes of Silence. Through the clamour of the bars, the ring of guitars, the shuffle of feet, and bustle of the street, Woodford's living symphony is created every day. Walking, talking and gawking are never enough.
Talking Circle
The Talking Circle is a new, dedicated venue for discussions and ideas generated by and directly affecting First Nations people – an exciting programme of talks and dialogue exploring social issues, country, commerce and art in a relaxed and entertaining format. It's also the home of The Feast, this year, as well as two spectacular shows – Sprit of Churaki, and Bukal.
The Nest
Gentle weaving workshops settle in next to the Talking Circle, so that you can enjoy the ideas from the stage while you learn about traditional weaving techniques or contribute to an installation.
Village Green
Shaded by mature hoop pines and overlooking Clyde's Pond, the Village Green is the heart of the Festival. With activities taking place throughout the day, the Green is also a great hang out for families, with area to enjoy a picnic lunch or have a snooze. Mornings begin with tai chi and traditional dance and then a beautiful shaded space is left to the devices of festivillians, until afternoons open for traditional dance, yoga and slackline. Nights are given over to a feature show on the Pond, and then, left to chance.
Let the circle be unbroken in this new space to learn and connect from your favourite artists on the programme – daily clinics from Andrew Clermont are sandwiched between workshops on percussion, bush song, folk and traditional styles, poetry and more.

San Pancho is having a party and I'm hiding in my house.
The town emptied of gringos back in June. Phil & I, along with a few hearty stragglers consider surviving the summer a source of pride. "If you can survive San Pancho in the summer, you can survive in San Pancho," I heard as folks waved on their way out of town. San Pancho Days feels like the last hurrah before the gringos return to take town over.
For two days, a crew hung multi-colored flags at 20 ft. intervals down the length of Tercer Mundo (the main drag). It looks great. Directly across from the plaza, the church got a set of the flags. Also, great.
The mural behind the plaza stage was completely repainted and detailed with hundreds of bottlecaps. Again - great. At 5:00 am-ish, around noon and again in the evening-ish, firecrackers pop into the sky and audible reminder that there is a party going on and everyone is invited.
I want to be a part of it. I DO! We tried to go. Our San Pancho go-to guy (my brother) insisted that the first night of the nine night party is the craziest. According to Jeremy, the plaza bumps with action, dancing, revelry, bottle rocket wars, hooplah, shenanigans & hootenany! We put the baby to sleep at Kare-bear's house, I took the good camera out of hiding, we strolled down there with high hopes and then - nothing.
Well. Okay. The games were all set up (knock over a bottle and win a beer!). The rides were lit up and inviting (if you're into rust and exposed wires). People filed out of the church as embers from fireworks faintly fell from the sky. It was clear things were starting to build, all the elements of a party were in place but something felt like it was missing. Chaos? Is that what I'd expected? Maybe. It was early - just before 9:00 pm. Therein lies the root of my lack of participation in San Pancho Days. Timing.
No one is going to be their best party self before 10:00 pm.
Unless you're really into foosball. You can play foosball anytime of day during San Pancho days, that guy is always down there.
Since that lackluster first night, I've gone to bed hearing the party escalate. The sound carries on the sticky air, taunting me. I can hear the merriment. I know there are good photographs begging to be made. There is a pulse to this town I've never felt and those gringos who are back in the states stocking up on last seasons swimwear before their imminent arrival, they haven't felt it either. I lie here and want to feel it. I want to celebrate this sweet town with my neighbors, with the friendly faces I pass on the street and who continue to smile at me even though my Spanish is NOT improving. But I haven't.
Instead, I hope the fireworks don't wake the baby and the internet stays fast enough for me to stream another episode of Modern Family.
Ugh. That is so lame. That completely defies the purpose of moving to Mexico and living a dynamic expat life.
Fuck it. I'm going. Just not tonight. It's raining really hard.

The New Year is a good occasion to re-evaluate your portfolio and start hunting for promising new investments. So we asked three top Motley Fool analysts which stocks they would be watching this year, and they turned up an IPO, the maker of an exciting new product, and a company that stands to benefit from a transformational shift in an established industry. Read on to learn why our contributors think these investment ideas should be on your radar in 2015.

One thing I will keep a close eye on in 2015 is how the spinoff of PayPal from eBay (NASDAQ:EBAY) progresses.
The press release announcing the move at the end of September included the following information:
PayPal is a rapidly growing global leader in digital payments and the most trusted digital wallet, with more than 152 million active registered accounts. Accounts grew 15% year-over-year last quarter. Revenue over the last 12 months grew by 19% over the prior year period to approximately $7.2 billion.
PayPal facilitates one in every six dollars spent online today. Total payments volume over the last 12 months increased by 26% to $203 billion, providing merchants and consumers worldwide a faster, safer way to pay and be paid. PayPal is fully localized in 26 currencies, is available in 203 markets worldwide and has relationships with 15,000 financial institutions.
In other words, PayPal is a company with burgeoning potential thanks to its extensive global reach and its incredibly strong financial performance.
The payments industry is one that has delivered massive benefits to shareholders through the years -- since it went public in 2006, MasterCard (NYSE:MA) is up an astonishing 1,800% -- and the initial signs indicate PayPal should continue that trend in the years to come.
But investing in an IPO can always be tricky, and with so much focus on the payments industry in recent months, one has to wonder whether the demand for PayPal will drive up the price to unsustainable levels.
As a result, I'll be closely watching PayPal, because if the price is justifiable, then one has to think it will make for a sensible investment.
In 2015, the launch of the Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL) Watch (rumored to come in the second quarter) will be a pivotal moment for the tech giant, as well as the fledgling wearables market.
The device will be the company's first new product line launch without Steve Jobs, and it represents a way for Apple to diversify beyond iPhones and iPads, which respectively accounted for 56% and 13% of its top line last quarter. Forecasts for the Apple Watch's first year sales vary widely, from 10 million units (Gene Munster, Piper Jaffray) to 60 million units (Katy Huberty, Morgan Stanley).
Based on the high end of that forecast, and a base price of $350 per unit, the Apple Watch could account for up to 3% of Apple's projected 2015 revenue of $210.7 billion. However, pricey wristbands will likely double or triple the price per unit, which means Apple Watch could account for nearly 10% of the company's annual revenue in a best-case scenario. If it sells well, Apple Watch could also tether more users to its Apple Pay, HealthKit, and HomeKit ecosystems.
The Apple Watch is also widely expected to turn smart watches from niche geek devices into mainstream ones. If Apple fails to do so, lofty projections -- such as ON World's forecast of smartwatch shipments soaring from 4 million in 2013 to 330 million in 2018 -- could be completely off the mark.

So far, the second open-enrollment period for the Obamacare health insurance exchanges has gone off without a hitch. The exchanges have signed up more than 6.4 million people in their first month, including 1.9 million new members, but what I'll be watching closely is how the next few months shake out.
That's because a surge in enrollment could mean big bucks for America's two largest health insurers in 2015. UnitedHealth Group (NYSE:UNH) and Anthem (NYSE:ANTM) are both participating broadly in the exchanges this year, and if the exchanges can exceed projections for 9 million members, both companies could see revenue jump.
Last year, UnitedHealth took a cautious approach to the exchanges, offering plans in just four states. This year, they offered plans in 24 states. Anthem has remained active, offering plans in 14 states in both years. The industry has indicated it expects to generate 3% to 5% margins off those plans over time. Since the average bronze level premium last year was $2,448, every million people who sign up through the exchanges should be worth at least $2.4 billion in industry-wide premium revenue, which, at a 3% margin would mean an additional $73 million in industry-wide profit per million members. That's enough of a needle-mover to get my attention.

If someone was dragging their feet getting us something we needed for the sale, she worked hard to get what we needed. We felt very comfortable leaving the details to her, because she has a very knowledgeable grasp of the real estate market's ins and outs. We would definitely recommend her to any of our family and friends!

This deal is expired. Here are some options that might interest you:
If you are looking for a very large pair of floor standing speakers with great performance you won't get better than these. I use them as part of my main home cinema setup and with these you won't need a sub as these really do belt out the bass when needed. They are not just noise makers though and stereo music sounds great on these too, just read the reviews on Amazon.
These speakers match up well with the Diamond 10 centres if you are going to add these to a home cinema setup, I use a Diamond 10CS.

Your crews on both ends were incredible. Packing was extremely efficient and professional. Loading went smoothly and your Charlotte/Raleigh crew were courteous, had great attitudes, and worked very hard running up and down my hilly driveway all day. The crew on the PA side were the same, and moved everything in very quickly. The cartons were well marked with both room and general contents, which made placement and further unpacking incredibly easy. I have moved several times in the past, and this was the easiest, least stressful one I've ever had. Thank yous need to go out to everyone involved from the estimating side, all the way through delivery.

July 2, 2018 - Matthews, NC
Everyone involved in our move was extremely professional and did a wonderful job communicating with us every step of the way. Brian and Ed did a great job ensuring that our needs were met.
December 27, 2017 - Rock Hl, SC
Our mover was condescending and a bit rude. Had us move some of the things on the truck ourselves. On pick up he had two hired hands so it was better than the disaster the drop off was - he, his teenage son, and his sons friend unloaded and it was a mess. Plastic tubs on top of cardboard boxes - crushing them. They literally threw boxes on the top of stacks. Chairs not stack but just thrown in and some dangling off stuff. Horrible mess - took me two 4 hour stints to get it organized on not collapsing on other things.
October 30, 2017 - Charlotte, NC
All personnel at All American, the Charlotte agent, were very professional and helpful. Everyone was timely. All items were well packed and high value items given great care. Wish we had known about the express weight of the safe sooner but it worked out OK.
October 26, 2017 - Albemarle, NC
Service center, Brian and Deana, excellent. Packers,M Ike and crew, Excellent Unloaded, damaged several furniture items including an antique secretary
October 26, 2017 - Concord, NC
Overall very good. Everything went as described. The loading of furniture took longer then expected but possibly could have used one additional worker. Trip cross country and unloading went quickly.
September 27, 2017 - Concord, NC
move went very smooth other than some of the packing of essential personal items being packed on the first day.
September 19, 2017 - Hudson, NC
The moving team was outstanding in every way. Could not have gone more smoothly or professionally.
August 31, 2017 - Rock Hl, SC
Although nothing was broken, I have never seen packing especially bone china where the packer would take 8 bread plates and just wrap them all together, nothing individually like a sheet of paper between each plate?? unusual to me??
August 30, 2017 - Ft Ml, SC
The original packers and movers (Walter and Woodrow) were amazing!!! On time and wonderful to work with. However a 2nd truck was sent due to shortage of space in the original truck. The 2nd truck got lost and took 2 days to get to our home
August 10, 2017 - Charlotte, NC

July 27, 2017 - Denver, NC
Nice people. Good response time from emailed questions. Quick claims department.
July 20, 2017 - Hickory, NC
The movers themselves were nice but some of my stuff was lost and I haven't heard anything about it.
July 18, 2017 - Monroe, NC
the salesrep underestimated thnumber of boxes needed by 100. It took the loading crew 9 hours to load the truck (not sure if that's normal). The sales person did not inform us when we got the estimate that it may take a week to get our furniture once the truck was loaded. We were pressured to sign a release of damages when our items were unloaded. There was no way to know if we had any damage at that point.
June 8, 2017 - Charlotte, NC
This crew was excellent and considerate. Apparently, our things were placed in a warehouse and then re placed on a truck and moved to the final destination. Some of our belongings were damaged and dirty. We are not happy with the additional movement of our belongings.
May 15, 2017 - Belmont, NC
Rushed to unpack because they were 4 hrs late.. No chance to inventory boxes or items to discover damaged items. Did not place marked boxes in appropriate rooms.
May 12, 2017 - Ft Ml, SC
The movers(3) were professional and friendly. They worked very hard to pack up the furniture by wrapping and securing it in the truck. Upon arriving at designation they went right to work unloaded and set up each room.
May 9, 2017 - Charlotte, NC
Everyone I had contact with for my move were extremely professional and great to work with! Brian Webster, Deana Smith and Walter and his moving team were exceptional! I will definitely call All American Relocation/Mayflower again for my next move since this move is only temporary until I purchase my new home. Thanks, Kathy Nagel
April 3, 2017 - Charlotte, NC
our experience was excellent. the salesman (Kevin)was very helpful and professional as was the move coordinator (Deana). The movers could not have been better.
March 15, 2017 - Charlotte, NC
My experience with Mayflower was tremendous. The associates who handled my items on both ends, along with my move coordinator were efficient, professional, and courteous. The timeliness of all services exceeded my expectations. I believe everyone involved in my move deserves to be commended.
March 13, 2017 - Charlotte, NC
The moving personnel were excellent - polite, friendly, hard working, and careful.
February 3, 2017 - Charlotte, NC
The coordinator at the end location never called to let me know when to expect the delivery of my items. The coordinator I worked with in the beginning and throughout the move was amazing. Always helpful.
January 17, 2017 - Matthews, NC
Very thorough from the estimate period(Kevin Strickland) to the handling(Deana Smith) to the loading and unloading. We were never in the dark during the entire move. Communication was great!
January 12, 2017 - Clover, SC
Not happy my antic shelf was moved out of my home well rapid but when they took it off truck some how and dropped it on the top they told me that it got broken at the ware house filled out paperwork today they want to give me 48.00 you can't replace it they ask for a price how do you price something that old I put 700.00 I'm just not happe with out come

PORT OF SPAIN — Active consideration is being given to increasing the salaries of Members of Parliament.
This is one of the issues raised in a document prepared by consultant Anthony Staddon titled Activities on Strengthening Parliamentary Practices in Trinidad and Tobago, which was presented at a Parliament workshop at the Magdalena Grand Beach Resort, Lowlands, Tobago, at the weekend.
The document said the increase must be considered in the context of T&T having a "small" Parliament and members have increasing workloads in parliamentary committees and in their constituencies.
"Such (small) legislatures often have greater difficulties than larger jurisdictions in the operation of the committee system simply because of the small number of members available to participate in the full range of committees," Staddon said in his 71-page report dated February 2012.
The report noted that there was "the fundamental and all-encompassing question of whether the job of a parliamentarian is expected to be a full-time activity." Opposition Leader Dr Keith Rowley suggested that it should be full time. Prime Minister Persad-Bissessar said the suggestion was being considered.
Staddon's report added: "The introduction of a Committee Service Allowance to Members of Parliament is a reflection of the demands of committee work."
He said MPs who were Cabinet ministers "are considered to be holding full-time jobs. Most other members work in a profession parallel to their parliamentary mandate and are essentially treated as part-time parliamentarians."
The consultant noted that the House of Representatives and the Joint Select Committees sit on Fridays, while the Senate and the Public Accounts Committee (PAC) and the Public Accounts Enterprises Committee meet on Tuesdays.
"Yet, modern parliamentary duties, such as committee work, not to mention the ever-increasing demands of constituency representation, may make it inevitable that Trinidad and Tobago moves beyond this one-day-a-week model towards a more full-time arrangement.
"This will entail further consideration of the adequate remuneration of members and the appropriate number of parliamentarians and senators," the report added.
