Bulls want 875+ Close
Watch the tape at the end today. A hard down move might mean some follow through on Monday. I got to run and do some stuff.
I never said I was a good daytrader LOL I have a regular job. Usually I am unable to watch the tape, I'm off work today.

875 doesn't mean shit. The media's going nuts about "a close above 875 is so critical, it means were going higher!!!!!" Perfect for a fakeout.ReplyDelete

I am a day trader so I look at minute to minute movements like a hawk and if you pay attention to the all the minute technical indicators the market was going to end in the negative but just 2 minutes before the close came this 5 point spike on the S&P for no reason whatsoever. If I were to guess, this wasn't the market in general doing it but buy programs to pump up the market to make it look good for the weekend. Thus, on Monday these same people who pumped up the market will be selling into any rallies.ReplyDelete
I used to believe market manipulation was a crazy conspiracy. But this push above 875 by a few is basically to dupe the media and amateur investors.

amazing...financials up but markets down... maybe we just corrected wave 1 down with a weird ascending triangle ending at the close (dow would support this best) or a flat + zig-zag. I'd think we must have to open lower mon. to confirm bearish. can't go above 880.ReplyDelete
looks ugly but maybe not as ugly as the bullish scenario, only 3 waves up after your ending diagonal c scenario with overlaps on waves. guess a flat would have been completed setting up for wave 3 up.
at least that's how I see it.

Thanks for posting that information. It adds to my strengthening belief that market manipulation is very real and extensive.
Although the global economic crisis has made me a bear & a short for over a year now, I have finally decided to go long because the almost total lack of pullbacks in P2 absolutely crushed my FAZ & SRS. I'll only play them if the market clearly breaks...and when P3 arrives.
If you haven't yet read it, go to ZeroHedge.com and read the report "The Visible Hand" posted on April 17, 2009, for persuasive evidence of market manipulation by the PPT. (I'll post a link below.)

I told a friend of mine that a close above 875 or below 875 is very important. However, it seems like most people think that way. Therefore, the manipulators need to close the market above 875 to pull in the suckers.ReplyDelete
Here is an important divergence for today's market. Despite the market closing in green, several key sectors are red, namely XLF, IYR, and main retailers like SHLD, BBY, and M. These are teh guys that led the March rally. I am sensing some bs cooking behind the scene right here. If I have to guess, Monday will be a sideway day. They will tank the market on Thursday after the release of the stress test.

We have closed in the 871 - 877 range for 3 days in a row, this suggest to me the market is running out of shorts to squeeze. Once that happens we should see a pullback. Institutional buying/selling will be key.ReplyDelete
- AnonymousMay 1, 2009 at 9:03 PM
SRS Player, I have no idea who would do this but I am thinking market makers, etc. tweaked the numbers just above 875 to get the reaction on Monday. I don't trust the market as it is and that's why I am never holding anything overnight. When there are no rules on the market, then it becomes a guessing game. This rally doesn't make any logical sense at this point but obviously there are some that want to suck more people. And at that point, where there are few suckers left, P3 will start and the reason it will go to lower levels will probably be that people will no longer believe the markets (like I do).ReplyDelete
Someone on SKF MB today posted about the dip to negative territory in the last hour before the final push-up. He/she said traders on the NYSE floor were cheering the descent, because most traders were short. Manipulation everywhere, but who's fighting whom? Traders vs PPT? Retail vs Institutional? Goldman vs everyone else?ReplyDelete
The action the last 3min just goes to prove some MM wanted the 785 number. What a joke this market is.ReplyDelete
DE - Looking at your charts on Stock charts - on the VIX chart you may want to pull out the APEX of the triangle - the tip corresponds with the large pop off the bottom.
Thanks for the excellent work.

Does anyone think that the government is cooking the stress test results as to create a massive upside surprise (to further the current P2)? They are making it seem as if the stress test results are actually going to include negative data on the banks, when in fact they are the ones who have complete control over what data will be released and in what light they will be seen in. They are setting it up by leaking a few negative stories (such as about citibank) and by delaying the results. When the doctored and "better than expected" results do come out, this may be the upside surpise the Feds are wating for to push the market over 900 towards 945. It seems the last few days the MM are just consolidating the base at 875 in preparation for this next wave up. I am currently long SDS, but am thinking of adding a small amount of FAS to hedge for this scenario. Any thoughts?ReplyDelete
Guys, if we have a retracement before the release of the stress test, make sure to take profit on your shorts. I, too, have a feeling that the stress test result will be the silver bullet to counter this impending retracement.ReplyDelete
Why would they delay "good" news?ReplyDelete
- AnonymousMay 2, 2009 at 12:23 PM
They probably wouldn't delay good news so they are probably trying to figure out the best way to put a positive spin on bad news.
- AnonymousMay 2, 2009 at 1:17 PM
Imho...the stress tests are designed to clear the way for the Fed/Tres to begin to transfer the rest of the bailout back to wallstreet and private investors for issuance of more equity/bonds for swap out of Tarp funds...Hot Potato, Hot Potato, Snake, Snake, Snake...ReplyDelete

it's going higher...than 888ReplyDelete
damn pig is headed to 900, then who knows
jmo, fwiw
I agree Erik.... that weekly chart looks terrible for us shorts.....ReplyDelete

Cross currents! We have been wedging higher for what seems like 4ever. Butt there is no reason to believe the wedge is fully developed. The twin December peaks crested at 918. The early January high hit 943 inter day. I would be a happy boy if we rally for another week or so and top out in the 915-920 area. Maybe I'll leave milk and cookies out for Santa.ReplyDelete
- AnonymousMay 4, 2009 at 1:12 AM
So you say the top is 888 but your charts earlier said we will close over 900 on Monday. I don't trust anythign you say anymore. You should be a politician. Nice charts by the way, but I think you are skitszoid.ReplyDelete

I don't think financials/CRE have to lead the market higher now. They can take a breather for a couple more days while energy, coal, ag, transports, materials and emerging markets pull our markets higher. And the financials still have room to run. It ain't no way over till it's over.ReplyDelete
i have possible cycle turn dates as 5/5, 5/19 or 5/24. 4/5 could be a top and 5/19 or 5/24 a retest/fail, or it could just run until 5/19 or 5/25. My philosophy: Daytrade the hottest sectors (long) until it quits working, I'm not fighting the tape.

Downtown in Washington, District of Columbia — The American Northeast (Mid-Atlantic)
White House Kitchen Garden
National Park Service, U.S. Department of the Interior
". . . Now I shall plant, if at all, more for the public than for myself."
John Quincy Adams, diary entry for July 5, 1826, shortly before beginning the first major planting program at the White House. Massachusetts Historical Society
During his eight years as president (1801-09), Thomas Jefferson hired the White House's first gardener, whose duties included the cultivation of a kitchen garden. However, it was
not until 1825, when John Quincy Adams became president, that the vegetable garden and surrounding grounds began to flourish. Adams established a tree seedling nursery
and an impressive two-acre garden filled with vegetables, herbs, and fruit trees, as well as flowers, shrubs, and shade trees.
By the 1840s, a new kitchen garden had been planted southwest of the White House, and a corresponding ornamental garden to the southeast. Most of the surviving records for this kitchen garden date to the administration of President Abraham Lincoln (1861-65). Receipts for seeds show that the Lincolns enjoyed an assortment of fresh fruits and vegetables. The kitchen garden was
First Lady Eleanor Roosevelt used the grounds during World War II to showcase her avid support of a Civilian Defense program for producing home-grown fruits and vegetables. Under her guidance, 10-year-old Diana Hopkins planted a demonstration "victory garden" in a flower bed south of the East Garden in the spring of 1943.
Diana, who lived in the White House with her father, Harry Hopkins, advisor to President Franklin D. Roosevelt, maintained the garden throughout the summer as an example for Americans to follow nationwide.
In spring 2009, First Lady Michelle Obama, with the assistance of local schoolchildren, planted a new White House kitchen garden at the southwest end of the south grounds (to your left). This garden will provide fresh, seasonal produce for the first family to enjoy, and will educate American children about the importance of eating more vegetables and fruits as part of a healthier lifestyle.
"John Saul: Seed Voucher" [captions below illustrations, upper left:]
Local nurseryman and horticulturist John Saul (1819-97) supplied the seeds for the kitchen garden during the Lincoln administration. Under the guidance of the preeminent landscape gardener A.J. Downing, Saul
Receipts for seeds show that the Lincolns enjoyed an assortment of fresh fruits and vegetables. Many of these selections, such as pears, strawberries, celery, carrots and lettuce are still common today.
John Saul, Receipt for Seed, Record Group 217, National Archives
". . . No occupation is so delightful to me as the culture of the earth, and no culture comparable to that of the garden. Such a variety of subjects, some one always coming to perfection, the failure of one thing repaired by the success of another, and instead of one harvest, a continued one thro' the year. Under a total want of demand except for our family table. I am still devoted to the garden. But tho' an old man, I am but a young gardener."
- Thomas Jefferson, letter to Charles Willson Peale, Poplar Forest, August 20, 1811, Library of Congress.
1867 Landscape Plan
This color plan of the White House grounds includes the only known rendering of the historic kitchen garden, located immediately west (left) of the house itself. Drawn in 1867, the plan shows the approximately one-acre garden as it appeared during the presidency of Abraham Lincoln.

SRINAGAR: The patient care system at SMHS Hospital Srinagar is in mess, especially during night hours, a patient has to face enormous problems. As per attendants neither nursing staff nor doctors are seen on duty and if anyone happens to be present, he or she is of junior position or trainee.
They said that staff present declines to answer absence of required staff neither they help an emergency patient in anyways. A young man from North Kashmir who is based in Srinagar told news agency that he suffered from a panic complication in the middle of night.
"Before, losing my consciousness, i rushed to SMHS Hospital. It was around 2:20 am when I reached hospital but to my utter shock I didn't find any Nurse or senior doctor there. Two doctors present were no quite satisfactory in diagnosing the complication. They just prescribed a pantop injection. And when asked no nursing staff is present to administer it, they were mum and of no help".
He added that after wandering from here and there, I found a doctor in causality room. As I approached towards him, he not only flatly refused to check my condition, but also humiliated me asking me to get lose from here. He was busy playing with his cell phone. I just asked him who will administered injection, if nursing staff is not available," the patient Irfan Ahmed said.
He said it was only 6:30 in the morning that another doctor attended him but with difference. "After taking the prescribed medicine, I left for home. But at home, I felt dizziness again and rushed to hospital but this time my friends were accompanying me," he said.
Irfan Ahmed added that a lady doctor probably from Jammu attended him. "I was shocked to learn from her that the medicine prescribed earlier by the doctor is not meant for the panic stroke. I somehow recovered after taking the medicine prescribe by the gentle lady doctor, but I want administration to answer why nursing staff or doctors don't remain available and decline to see an emergency patient during late night hours. I suffered so much humiliation and problem in the hospital," he said.
"Action should be initiated against the nursing staff and that arrogant doctor who instead of taking care of an emergency patient leave him in lurch," Irfan Ahmed said.
Medical Superintendent SMHS Hospital was not available for the comments, but another administrative official said that they will definitely look into the matter(PTK).

Comerica Corner: La Brisa Ice Cream Co.
Guadalupe Flores, along with his family, arrived to the U.S. with loads of dreams and lots of will to create what they had left behind. Thanks to this country and the support of many, like Comerica Bank, Flores was able to open La Brisa Ice Cream Company in Houston, TX.
Houston, Texas is home to a considerable amount of entrepreneurs. Meet Guadalupe Flores, owner of La Brisa Ice Cream Company. He is a native Mexican from the state of Zacatecas.
His journey began 36 years ago in 1982 when he and his family decided to come to the U.S. in order to continue with their entrepreneurial dreams. During his time in Mexico, he established his business in his hometown and was able to develop fundamental skills to lead a business.
But not everything was easy and simple, "Things for difficult in Mexico.", said Flores. As like many other business owners, resources were limited and scarce. But Flores had a "plan B" and decided to look north of the border.
Fast forward to 2018, La Brisa has become a booming business. Along the way, he has had partners that have supported his venture. Comerica is one of those partners. Flores has formed a relationship with the bank and Hugo, his personal banker. "There was no money. But we were able to borrow money little by little to be able to get back on our feet." Flores talked about how bigger banks closed doors for him, but Comerica opened a window. Thanks to the bond they created, Flores was able to produce. His piece of advice for other business owners struggling financially? "Don't be scared. Si se puede. Look for the help you need."
Throughout his time, his motivation fluctuated. He first saw his business as an obligation; a way to provide for his family. Now? La Brisa is now the inheritance Flores wishes to pass along to his children. "I never thought it would grow so much, into what it is now. We insisted and insisted and here we are."
Now Flores looks to the future. His future plans are to make sure that his family continues with the business. "We have done the most difficult part, now its up to them to continue this business." Four of his children are currently taking the reigns and are part of La Brisa. His legacy to his family is the hard work and dedication in the form of a business that will produce happy customers for years to come.

"Classic comedy of suburban manners"
by Michael Gray for remotegoat on 05/09/18
To open its 65th anniversary season the Queen's has chosen a "fresh but faithful" revival of Mike Leigh's excruciatingly close-to-home look at 70s life in "theoretical Romford".
Lee Newby's design captures the period perfectly, without being gaudy or cheap – Laurence's taste rather than Beverly's perhaps. Even the lava lamp is understated. A broad beige lounge, with upstage kitchen and the hall and stairs glimpsed off.
And the five familiar characters are beautifully drawn by a strong ensemble – again, no caricatures, their real suburban struggles always there behind the laughs.
Christopher Staines is Laurence Moss, the estate agent driven to an early grave by frustrations both domestic and professional – his crisis cleverly hinted at by distortions in the sound design [Ivan Stott] as he makes his defiant sandwich or suffers Demis Roussos. His Beverly – sharp, aggressively hospitable – is superbly done by Melanie Gutteridge, especially perhaps in the closing moments when her world falls apart. Their guests are the loud, gauche, insensitive Angela [Amy Downham], her monosyllabic hubby [Liam Bergin] and Abigail's divorced mother Susan, [Susie Emmett] awkwardly sitting out the G&Ts and the cheesy pineapples as she frets about her daughter's teenage friends at the rave down the road.
Douglas Rintoul's production is finely wrought, with telling detail – Ange's face as she listens to Beverly's lipstick lecture, Sue's reaction as the motorbike is mentioned. A masterly mood change at the end, too, leading to a carefully orchestrated chaotic climax: the cramp, the ambulance, Sue's frantic phone-call.
The piece has always been popular – sometimes risking the Rocky Horror road, with audiences dressing the part. Traditionalists will miss Donna Summer's Love to Love You – rights issues, we're told – though Baccara's disco I Can Boogie is an appropriate understudy.
Of course it wasn't written as a period piece. In 1977 it was contemporary, if not exactly cutting edge. So it's fitting that Hornchurch and Derby Theatre – one of the co-producers – commissioned a new piece, Abi, as a contemporary response. Atiha Sen Gupta's hour-long monologue, directed by Sarah Brigham, puts a 2018 teenager centre stage. She's Abigail's grand-daughter, hosting a party in her nan's house – 70s wallpaper. Abigail doesn't appear in this play either – she's dying in hospital – but she has clearly been a mentor and an inspiration to Abi, who talks with the audience about her ambitions, her boring accountant 'rents, her playlist ["a party without music is just a meeting"], nominative determinism, sexting, snacks, and her online boyfriend Luke. Not hard to see where that plot strand is headed, but alongside the duplicate detail – the blue lips, the olives – there are darker, deeper references and resonances, and the redemptive ending is very powerful.
A great performance from Safiyya Ingar, effortlessly capturing the sassy, insecure young woman as she struggles with a young person's world undreamed of in the 70s.
Definitely worth seeing both – the two parties are touring this autumn to Derby. Salisbury and Luxembourg, the other two co-producers, will host the 1977 original only.

franchisee feature: Kevin, Saint john
A simple Google search in the middle of the night was all it took for Kevin McEachern to begin a career in an industry he loved. Having recently been laid off from his job in the hospitality sector, McEachern was in search of the next big thing and thought franchising would be right up his alley.
Franchising fitness: P.E.I.'s 3rd Degree Training expands to 6th location
3rd Degree Training and Actual Nutrition, a fitness and nutrition company that began in Stratford, P.E.I., seven years ago, is poised to launch a franchise in Saint John, its sixth location — along with Stratford, Summerside, P.E.I., Montague, P.E.I., Moncton, N.B., and Dartmouth, N.S

Fat Mans Misery Canyon, UT
Location: Utah, Zion National Park
Rating: 3B - III
Longest Rappel: ≈ 45'
Fat Mans Misery begins just outside the Zion National Park Boundary making it a great option for days when permits are hard to come by. The approach is mostly exposed and I would always recommend a early start (took our group one hour at a fast pace to get to the head of the canyon). Once in canyon you are treated to pockets of narrows that each have their own nice features and eventually lead to open, exposed areas where on occasion you will think the canyon is complete. The canyon can be done with a 100' rope, we brought two as a contingency, but there is nothing extremely challenging regarding the rope work required or any areas where stuck ropes are a major concern. The canyon drops in and out of tight slots and eventually into the "Grotto Pool", the final and most scenic portion of the canyon (in my opinion) where warm springs fill a dark, tight area that gives the feeling of almost being underground. Once beyond this section you encounter a nice exit through the flow of the sulfur springs into the east fork of the virgin river. A short, and typically secluded hike through this section of narrows eventually leads to your exit point where it is time to pay the canyon. The hike out is long, exposed, and navigation can be challenging, look for small cairns uphillwhen the trail seems to run out. Our group took 12 hours the first time through (navigational difficulties along with an exploration of labyrinth falls down stream from the canyon exit) and 7 hours the second time through (did not get lost and did not go to the falls).

Whoopie pies | 12¢ of sweetness
Alistar, 5 years ago 0 1 min read 7220
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa
- 1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 stick softened, unsalted butter
- 1 cup sugar
- 1 large egg
- 1 cup milk
Prep in 5 steps!
- Preheat oven to 425°F. Line 2 large baking sheets with parchment paper.
- Make cakes: Sift flour, unsweetened cocoa, baking soda and salt together into a bowl. Cream butter and sugar in a large bowl of an electric mixer at high speed until fluffy (approx 5 minutes). Add egg and beat at medium speed until fully incorporated. Change mixer speed to low and add dry ingredients, alternating with milk. Mix until properly blended.
- Drop batter 1/2 Tbsp. at a time and about 2 inches apart onto each sheet to make 18 cakes per baking sheet. Bake for 7 minutes, until mini cakes are springy to touch. Let cool on pan for 5 minutes, and then transfer to racks to cool completely. Change parchment paper and repeat to make 72 cakes.
- Match cakes in pairs so tops and bottoms are similar in shape. Spread bottoms with cream filling and cover with top.
- For cream filling, combine 1 stick of unsalted butter and 1 2/3 cups confectioners' sugar in a bowl and beat at low speed until blended. Then beat at high speed until mixture is fluffy, about 5 minutes. Add 1/2 tsp. pure vanilla extract and 2 cups marshmallow cream; mix at low speed until blended well (makes 2 1/3 cups).

Hello everyone. We've been exploring using natural materials this week, talking about what we can draw and looking at what we've made with our marks.
A few weeks ago we explored making fires using our fire steel and cotton wool, so to continue with our fire theme we've decided to mark making using charcoal.
Before we started our activity we spoke to the children about what we will be doing, introducing them to all the materials which included kitchen roll and charcoal (that is all we needed, how simple!). We asked the children if they could say the word and what they else they think the materials might be used for, one child said "water in kitchen".
During the activity we seen lots of mark making using our fine motor skills, holding the charcoal and dragging this along the kitchen towel. There was lots of imagination and speech, talking about what we have drawn and what we might want to draw. Alongside mark making we did some hammering, placing a bit of charcoal between two pieces of towel and hitting it with a big hammer! Our achievement was making different types of marks which we may not be able to make using our little hands!
After the activity we shown the children all the different marks we had made and told them what we will be doing with them. I will be making a display in our forest school display which is located under our display board inside the Burrow.
Next week Lou will be joining us again to make fires and toast marshmallows!
Thanks for reading,

- Summary
- An unseen supernatural power prowls the hallways, laboratories and chambers of a shadowy corporate compound, terrorizing living beings wherever it lurks. That unseen power is YOU! Prepare for a hauntingly innovative first-person adventure with a supernatural twist! When a counterterrorism operation at the shadowy Volks Corporation goes horribly wrong, you are captured and subjected to a ghastly experiment that rips your spirit from your physical body. If you're going to have any hope of finding your own body, you must employ your hair-raising power of possession to control humans, animals and objects, using the unique abilities of each to explore the compound, solve puzzles and strike at your enemies.


text: Texas is home to many industries requiring power transmission solutions. While several companies supply solutions, Dodge is renowned for the quality of its products. In fact, over the 120 years, Dodge-Baldor has been in operation, it should come as no surprise that many companies only install Dodge bearings, preferring them to all others. One of the models currently available is Solidlube® Sleeve Bearings.

Dreamy Raspberry Smoothie Recipe
Dreamy Raspberry Smoothie Recipe
Yes, I have been on a smoothie kick for sure! I love Thanksgiving and I am not about to give up any of the food being offered. It is all so good; however, after Thanksgiving I feel a bit rounder than normal ;) After 3 different Thanksgiving meals, I decided that I was going to take a day where I only had smoothies to help reset my body. This smoothie made the top of the list for sure! Raspberries are some of my favorites!
This recipe makes one serving.
4 ounces of Orange Juice
4 ounces of water
1/4 cup plain greek yogurt
1 scoop vanilla protein powder
3/4 cup frozen raspberries
1/2 of a frozen banana
optional: 1/2 cup spinach
Add orange juice and water in a blender cup
Add all other ingredients into the blender cup
Blend until smooth
Makes 1 serving

"Well done good and faithful servant…" Mathew 25:23
These wonderful words echo what we want to hear, when our Master evaluates our lives in a future day.
But sometimes we get sidetracked into thinking that 'faith' has a more prominent place over 'faithfulness.' Our cultural surrounds promote 'faith' as an all-important thing, because it caters for the spiritual dimension human beings need to have, to make them complete. But the problem is, 'culture's faith' can be in anything you want and it changes according to the times and the personal benefits it brings.
The believer's faith is in Jesus Christ alone for eternal salvation, deliverance, completeness and forgiveness of sin. Without Christ as our Saviour and Lord, people merely drift on the tide of cultural whims, which they clutch at for a faith object.
But the true believer not only looks on his/her "faith" in Jesus as an escape root from the wages of sin or the wrath of God - but will also long to live 'faithfully'! Faithfulness toward the object of our faith (Jesus) will be or should be the ongoing fruit of our 'faith' in Jesus. In other words in our ongoing 'faithfulness' we should at all times be open to be used, spent, and willing to die if necessary for the object of our faith which is Christ Jesus our Lord. That's faithfulness! Those who are faithful are the vessels God uses to do great things for His glory! Note what Oswald Chambers once said:
The goal of faithfulness is not that we will do work for God, but that He will be free to do His work through us. God calls us to His service and places tremendous responsibilities on us. He expects no complaining on our part and offers no explanation on His part. God wants to use us as He used His own Son.

Donald Trump's Twitter account deactivated by employee leaving company
The US president has 41.7 million followers on Twitter
US president Donald Trump's @realdonaldtrump Twitter account was deactivated by a Twitter employee who was leaving the company on Thursday and was down for 11 minutes before it was restored, the social media company said.
"We have learned that this was done by a Twitter customer-support employee who did this on the employee's last day. We are conducting a full internal review," Twitter said in a tweet.
"We are continuing to investigate and are taking steps to prevent this from happening again," the company said in an earlier tweet.
Earlier today @realdonaldtrump's account was inadvertently deactivated due to human error by a Twitter employee. The account was down for 11 minutes, and has since been restored. We are continuing to investigate and are taking steps to prevent this from happening again.— Twitter Government (@TwitterGov) November 3, 2017
A Twitter representative declined to comment further.
The White House did not respond immediately to a request for comment.
Trump has made extensive use of messages on Twitter to attack his opponents and promote his policies both during the 2016 presidential campaign and since taking office in January. He has 41.7 million followers on Twitter.
"Great Tax Cut rollout today. The lobbyists are storming Capital Hill, but the Republicans will hold strong and do what is right for America!" he wrote in his first tweet after Thursday's outage.
Twitter chief executive Jack Dorsey's account was briefly suspended as a result of what he said was an internal mistake in a similar incident last November.

Nurses don't talk about power much. That needs to change.
We talk about want we need or want, our goals, our gripes and problems. We talk about what we do, and how we struggle and suffer getting it done.
What is power, really? Nurses owe it to themselves to pay this topic some attention. The less you know about it, the attention you pay to it, the less power you'll have. It's a bad place to put yourself: choosing weakness over strength.
Power is just the ability to get things done, make things happen. No more, no less. If you can flip a switch and light up your bedroom, that's power. Money is power: it convinces people to give you goods and services you want. If you ask someone for a favor and they grant it, that too is power.
We nurses work with lots of people. We ask them to do things, and ask them to let us do lots of other things to them. We exert power all the time to get the job done, whether we think of it that way or not. We have no other choice. Here's my central point for today: the more power you have, the easier your work, the less struggle and frustration. Let's get us more.
How can you enjoy more power? All it takes is a little knowledge, applied.
Let me tell you about Reciprocity.
I wrote about it in general terms last year, in Make work better, easier, FUN! Reciprocity. Here I'll fill in some details I left out last time around.
For those who missed it, Reciprocity is a powerful, wonderful phenomenon if you know how to make best use of it. It applies everywhere there are people: it's universal.
Reciprocity is a crucial driver of many human decisions, in fact one of the most powerful and universal social norms in human history. It basically says: "… we should try to repay…. what another person has provided us." Whenever you offer someone a gift or favor, it triggers a deep, powerful instinct to pay you back in kind, somehow. To reciprocate!
Here's how to make this powerful instinct work for you at work:
You can't offer a deal, like " If you do what I say, I'll give you ice cream."
That's not reciprocity, that's bribery. Bribes work sometimes in the short run, I suppose, but they generate no reciprocity, no benefit over time. They might even make things WORSE by building expectations for more bribes in the future.
Reciprocity involves an exchange of gifts, not business deals. You freely offer gifts, no strings attached, and it generates a sense of debt automatically, by instinct. Think of it as a bank account, but instead of money, you're building up good will and coöperation.
Later, when you ask for something, "Yes" has become far more likely. When reciprocity acts, it's like magic: "Yes" without struggle, delay, or argument. It's wonderful! Extensive research and practice have confirmed it works, and that it works better than bribery. Talk about evidence-based care!
Notice the power this approach gives you: you choose the gifts to offer, when and what, and you can also choose the payback. You can set the agenda when you need to, take charge, without needing to say so. You don't need to tell someone they owe you anything back. The instinct of reciprocity will do it for you, wordlessly.
In nursing work, that payback often amounts to things like accepting your care, trusting you, listening, cooperating. You earn all the little things that work work easier, smoother, quicker, more pleasant. Reciprocity makes it so.
In this post, I'll offer various ways to earn Reciprocity, build up that account. Busy nurses need ways to earn the most reciprocity with the least time or effort. That way you come out ahead: you save time and energy, as your reciprocity investments pay off. In fact, you save more time and energy than you invested, and you generate lots of goodwill at the same time. In short, you win, all by doing good. No tricks, no manipulation: just gifts.
What gifts? There are countless options. I'll offer a few:
1) Time: Obviously busy nurses have little to spend. Remember, the goal for our purposes here is to save time. Still, wise investments can do just that. Unwisely trying to cut corners to "save time" often backfires badly, costing far more time than it saves. It takes some practice to find the best balance on this point. Here are some ways to improve your odds:
– Avoid rushing people. It often backfires. I've actually found that saying "There's no rush" tends to speed people up.
– Sit with patients. It's great for your feet, it makes you seem less overbearing, and costs little time at all. Every second you sit with a patient seems to them longer than the same second you spend standing. It provides a credible sense of commitment, of being "with" them. More reciprocity per second!
2) Politeness and Respect: the oils that keep the social machine from breaking down and bursting into flames. That's why humans came up with such rituals! You can prevent lots of hard feeling this way, avoid many unpleasant interactions, and save lots of time. How much do "Hello," "Good morning," "Please" and the like cost you? They pay off far more than they cost.
3) Attitude. What does it cost you to offer someone a little warmth in a cold environment? Show eagerness to help, express it as often as possible. Don't lie: fake fails. Learn to feel it yourself, to believe it. It helps you too, makes the day pass faster and more pleasantly.
4) Your apology. If the hospital food stinks, apologize! Don't try to sell an obvious lie, and don't protect yourself. Obviously the food isn't your fault, but you gain absolutely nothing arguing the point. Express your regrets, do what you can about it, and make sure they know you're doing it. The interpersonal response makes it a solid investment. The same applies with your own mistakes and shortcomings. Learn to apologize up front and readily and focus on fixing it, not defending yourself. It gets much less painful with practice, and it saves much grief.
5) Empathy. People treat empathy as a skill or a task. It's actually a process. Our early guesses are often inaccurate, and we need to test them, ask questions, reassess, and so one to develop anything useful, Empathy allows us to ask the right questions, offer the right services. It shows respect, it shows people you value them, and it helps you to cause fewer costly misunderstandings and get your work done easier.
6) Listening. Show some eye contact. Ask questions to show you're paying attention, and to confirm you understand what they're saying. People find a "good listener" very flattering.
7) Acceptance. Voice it, show it in how you act and speak.
8) Trivial Gestures. Sometimes I help someone buy a snack when I'm running an errand. People don't soon forget minor bits of help outside of your "duties." Even trivial choices are also a great option:
9) Information. Patients are desperately ignorant about most everything in a hospital. It's rather frightening, and any little lessons you can teach them make a strong impression. Show off your knowledge, and show them you're an expert.
10) Compliments. I compliments patients' smiles, or things they say, or special clothes they wear, jokes they tell, stories, whatever I can find. I look for things I can honestly appreciate: it makes the day more pleasant, and people appreciate the way it makes them feel important.
It's as much of a mindset and habit as anything, a way of thinking. I'm always looking for little ways to give a little bit more, ways that I can afford to offer and don't interfere with my essential work. I build my Reciprocity accounts, over and over, and they give me a positive reputation as a nurse to trust, one who cares, one of the "good" ones. Partly reputation, partly substance: both are matter.
What goes around comes around. So it goes in life, so too in nursing. In many ways, doing right pays for itself and more.

Welcome riders! Regardless of your discipline, skill level, age or physical ability, I'm here to share with you the benefits of upper cervical chiropractic for the equestrian. Whether your focus is dressage, jumping, barrel racing, trail riding or any equestrian pursuit, reducing your body's imbalances and misalignments can improve your riding. If you've suffered an injury or are simply suffering from the toll that riding can take on your body, the specific, scientific approach of upper cervical chiropractic care may bring the relief you need.
Many riders seek chiropractic care for specific pain, such as:
- pain in the back, neck or shoulders
- problems with range of motion
- chronic discomfort from previous injuries
- perceived imbalances (one leg feels longer than the other, for instance)
Sometimes, an equestrian's issues are less pronounced but still affect their riding and should be addressed. Most riders know what it feels like to be off balance or have experienced the sense of riding "against" the motion rather than "with" your horse. In riding, as in other sports, trying to put your body in the "correct" position is not the same as finding your center of balance and moving freely from a secure, centered foundation.
Sometimes, your own skeletal structure may be what's hindering your progress. Working to improve areas such as your position, aids, flexibility, strength or overall riding skill are important goals. But if skeletal misalignments are preventing you from moving in a balanced, pain-free, comfortable way, you won't reap the full benefit of all those other efforts.
Simply put, the biomechanics of horseback riding stresses your frame to begin with, and many riders have pre-existing skeletal issues that affect their posture and movement before they even get on their horse. Also, just like our horses, we tend to favor one side over the other, which can accentuate imbalances.
Ideally, our bodies naturally adjust to the stresses of our athletic pursuits. But sometimes, they need a nudge in the right direction to help the healing process begin. The scientific evaluation provided at each check up allows me to determine if and when an adjustment is needed, and to make a small and specific correction that is more likely to provide lasting results.
Coming Back Into Balance
- Realigning your skeletal system can alleviate pain and set your body up to better handle the impact of riding
- Better control over your own body can help you use more subtle and correct aids and more clearly influence your horse
- Helping your body correct misalignments can provide more energy and focus during riding and everyday activities
Adjusting Your Priorities
You probably spend a lot of time, money and energy on your horse's well being. If you're competing, that might even include bodywork, chiropractic, acupuncture, laser therapy or other treatments for your horse. Of course, each of these therapies can be valuable in addressing problems or preventing future issues. But don't forget to focus on your body as well. A skeletal misalignment may be the sticking point in your continued progress, and bringing your body back into balance might be the catalyst needed to improve your riding performance -- and help your horse do HIS job more easily.

I sat in the corner of the room staring at what was left of my boring breakfast. The clock read five past ten. The sticky bland oatmeal had already dried up, and a banana peel lay sadly across the dark grey textured tray. I heard a knock and before I could answer, she was already in the room with a huge grin. "Housekeeping! Is it OK if I clear out the trash?" I nodded, and watched her as she moved with a little too much energy and purpose. She made me feel tired. I wanted to be able to move like that. I wondered if I'd ever be able to move like that again. My feet were swollen. My heartburn tugged at my chest, and the nausea was lurking. Taunting me.
Within a blink of an eye, she had already changed the trash bag by the door, and was already making her way to the bathroom. I got up slowly, glanced out at the gray sky, then at the parking lot. I wondered who all the cars belonged. If two-thirds of them belonged the the nurses who had to clock in at 6:30 AM and clock out at 7PM. My eyes shifted to the large white board that sat directly across my bed, under the television. I took notice of the date (wow, it's already been this long?), my nurse's name (Oh, she must be a new one), and a number to reach her written in colorful markers. I don't remember when she came in that morning. She must have sneaked in and I could tell that she wrote it in a rush. I could see that in the way the letters dragged across the board. She probably didn't want to wake me up. I had a tough night.
The cleaning lady came out of the bathroom, and said, "Dang! That's a big 'ol baby you got in there!" I said nothing. I gave her a defeated smile, and I looked down at my big, round, lopsided belly. I placed my right hand on corner next to my right hip and left it there for a while. That's where baby was hiding. That's the only place she could fit. She was surrounded by massive, firm tumors, that took over all the room she needed to survive and thrive. And so she kicked, and turned, and fought, and made her presence known. She could never be fully seen through ultrasounds. They were always fuzzy because she was always tucked right behind the stubborn fibroids that took over everything. And the only clear pictures I've gotten of her in there were of her foot.
I went back to bed, and rang the nurse. It was time to monitor the baby's heartbeat and my contractions. I hated the cold gel they spread on my belly. I had to be strapped twice per day for about thirty minutes to make sure baby was doing well and that my contractions were not getting too close. Every time I got a new nurse, I would tell her where to put the gel and where the baby was hiding, but she would not believe me. She would smear it all over and after trying for minutes, she would finally try the corner I had originally showed her. Then she would say, "Huh! So these are all fibroids? She ain't got no room in there. Poor baby... Poor little girl." Then she would press on my belly while making several faces that often offended me, but on a good day, humored me. They read: confusion, horror, shock. Every now and then, a new nurse would call in another nurse because she could not believe what she was seeing. And they would both stare at me, shiny with cold gel, and they would both make comments about how big my belly is, how skinny I am, and about how the "dang" fibroids were so HUGE!
There was a nightstand next to my bed stacked with books and flowers. My windowsill was also covered with more books, more flowers, and a little cactus. I had a little message board that read "Stay pregnant Pao" hanging on a little shelf near under the television. Stay pregnant Pao. That's what the doctors told me when they came in daily to update me. That's what my friends and family told me when they came to visit. And that's what I whispered to myself in the wee hours of the morning, in the shower, or while I cried in the middle of a sunny day in February. Stay pregnant Pao.
Then the day finally came. And I was not ready. It was my thirty-first day in the hospital. I had made it that far, but still hoped for so many more. I'm not sure how I stayed sane. How I stayed courageous. How I still kept working behind the scenes. I spent thirty-one days in the hospital trying to keep her in, and I really hoped for so many more days. It didn't matter how many times I was poked with a needle. How long I stayed on a monitor. How many times I had to hear a nurse or doctor talk about things on my body I already knew. I would have given everything to keep her in safely. I would have spent fifty more days. Even one hundred more if I could. I would have offered my whole being to keep her in there for one more week, two more, three more…
She was born thirteen minutes after the hour on a Thursday morning. I wish I could say I knew what the sky looked like. And that it was a sunny day with scattered fluffy clouds. That the birds were singing. And beautiful wild flowers danced in vast fluffy, colorful fields with the help of a gentle breeze. And butterflies came to our window to welcome her. That I was surrounded by loved ones. And sweet melodies played in the background as I pushed and pushed and pushed. That I held her immediately afterwards, exhausted, eyes filled with happy tears. But none of that happened. I was unconscious. Something had gone horribly wrong. And I didn't get to see her until two days after. It hurt to breathe, to cry, to move. I was heartbroken. I felt so weak. I cried so hard. Because she has survived. Because my body betrayed me. Because I couldn't be there for her. I convinced myself I had failed at motherhood before I even had a chance to begin…
(To be continued…)

Today could either be described as good or bad, depending on how you look at it. I thought it ended up pretty good, but I'll let you judge for yourself. I left Tulok Intan around 8am this morning. It was a little later than usual, but I figured I didn't have as far to go. Everything was running smooth. It was a nice day outside, I was going a little faster than I normally go, and I was in a really good mood. I transfered from HWY5 to HWY58, where the traffic wasn't as bad and the landscape was slightly different. I saw my first rice feild, which was pretty cool. About 30km into todays ride it started to rain. Then it started to pour. About 40km into the ride the rain started to let up. Just as it was ending I heard a thud. Then I felt a thud, and another. It seems somewhere along the line one of the pin wheels fell off my rear dereullier. I sat there contimplating what to do. My bike was still drivable, but only in one gear(low gear) and only between 17-20km/h (depending if I was on an incline or decline) I decided to stop at a near by fruit stand for a cold drink and some fruit. As I was sitting the sipping my coconut juice, the people at the stand started bringing me different things to try. All of which was delicious. They sat and chatted with me, asking me questions about Canada and my trip. When I went to pay them they shook there heads. "No Pay. For you, free".
After that I hopped back on my clunky bike and slwly moved down the road. Two men were working on a car outside of their house. I pulled in on my bike and asked if they could help. They tried to fix Fred with some parts from an old bicycle they had. Again I asked how much. Again there was no charge. The quick fix was actually worse than the missing part. Now I coulg only move at 14km/h. I continued like this for maybe another 10km before I decided to just remove the part. By this time it was blistering hot outside.
I finally got to Pankor at about 4:30. Upon arriving at the Island a man walked up to me just to let me know there was a bike shop in town, just in case I needed anything. What luck! I took fred down and got him patched up. The bike mechanic was a very nice man. He actually had some good stuff too.
So, that was my day. Like I said, I thought it turned out to be pretty good.

Del Canto Chambers thinks that the HMRC's antifraud measures are 'excessive'
03.10.2016 , Del Canto News 0
Our Managing Partner, León Fernando del Canto, has published a statement in the magazine Bloomberg BNA where he comments on the last measures that HMRC has implemented to fight against VAT fraud.
The article, written by the journalist Ben Stupples, is titled "UK proposes new penalties for VAT fraud" and it gives details on the different proposed measures by the HMRC. The British authorities are proposing fines of up to 50% of the unpaid amount of VAT fraud for tax advisors involved in optimization processes and they have the obligation to reveal the evaders' names.

Don't kick or head-butt
your brother at all,
unless he transforms
to a soccer ball.
When we're playing at the beach
and say, "Look your Sunday best!"
You can be a salty, sweaty, sandy mess.
If you're buckled in the back
while we're driving down the road
and suddenly you make a juicy sneeze,
it's ok to wipe your nose off with your sleeves.
Run fast after your dreams
Always reach for the sky
Unless we're in a store with fancy things
Then walk slow, palms pressed to your thighs.

DIY Teabags — The Perfect Last Minute Gift!
The holidays came up fast this year, so we developed these DIY tea bags as a fun and unique gift that also shares the healing benefits of all these amazing herbs we've been learning about.
Back in November, we created a Healing Herbs article and e-course that focuses on introducing 8 herbs. These herbs were chosen because they are incredibly versatile, are easily accessible (and can be grown yourself if you really want!), and contain some or all of our four primary terpenes. All of them can be consumed fresh or dried, can be infused or extracted, can be smoked or vaporized, and are available as essential oils.
Materials for Making Your Own Tea Bag
Materials for Bags
- coffee filter
- stapler
- toxin-free string
Materials for Tags
- download of our printable tea tags
- cardstock paper (we used a beige color)
- black and white printer
- xacto knife, cutting mat + ruler (or scissors)
- hole punch
About the Tags
There are two designs that reflect a couple of our personal favorite blends as well as a blank tag so that you can fill in the ingredients of your own personal creation and note any therapeutic benefits it may have.
About Herbal Blends
Check out our post on how to make your own herbal blend. The best part of these little bags is that they can be used for tea, thrown into a bath, or even opened up and smoked or vaporized.
Creating the Bag
There are tons of coffee filters out there, but these are the ones we already had in our home. If you have a different style, review these steps to get a baseline then get creative with your own filter! The only real concern here is ensuring that your herbs won't escape the filter.
If the idea of making your own herbal blend stresses you out, check out our review of a few different herbal blends
Insider tip: Consider purchasing 1 large tin of a blend by Bear Blend then make your own tea/bath bags to gift them to friends and family!
Attaching the Tag
We've designed tea tags that you can download and print below. There are two designs that reflect a couple of our personal favorite blends and a blank tag so that you can fill in the ingredients of your own personal creation.

Hello readers,
With winter almost coming to an end, we should be prepared for sunny summer mood, isn't it?
Well, we all have mood swings similar to seasons – there are certain times we feel different like on one day we are all bright & cheerful just like summer, the other day we feel lazy, sleepy like in winter & someday we tend to be all gloomy & sad like fall season, while on other days we love to bloom & grow like in spring. So, according to me, seasons & mood are quite similar.
Talking about summer, the only thing that I love about summer is that I get to dress up in fancy ways, drink coolers & gulp down on ice-cream shamelessly almost every day. The other time I really hate going out in the harsh sun, as the rays literally burn my skin even if I have applied sunscreen with more than SPF50, still it doesn't work & at last, I get heavily tanned. Well, I avoid going anywhere out in the sun except if I have some important work to do, else I tend to stay indoor & chill in AC. I mean who would want to go out & bake themselves? Nobody right, everyone loves to take care of self.
Anyways, having a bright & cheerful mood is always good, one of the reasons I have my blog is because I want to inspire people with everything that I have right from stories, motivation to sending positive vibes! These days world is full of cruelty & jealousy, people are full of hate & competition, I mean why? why fellas? Can't we create a happy place for all of us to be together & work together? I strongly believe in uplifting each other & girl power! Remember, you cannot just grow or succeed by putting others down or hating others. That's not how energies work! Positive people spread & take positivity, while negative people are just the other way around. So, be careful of what kind of person you are, and if you are reading this – I request, YES, I literally request you to be always positive & see good changes coming in your life, I promise it'll only get bigger & better! And not just your life, but it will mould you as a person & you will feel a whole lot of change in yourself.
Try it, even for a day don't speak or get any negative thought in your head, only think & feel positive! At the end of the day, you'll be amazed at how wonderful you'll feel, Practise this every day!
So, this blog shoot was done back in summer last year, I just wanted to remind myself of how my life has rolled for me & has been so much more better with positivity & Sanghpreey, is indeed a blessing to me & has completely changed my view of life & I can't wait to share more stories with you real soon!
The outfit I choose to style & describe my summer feeling:
- high waisted shorts in a bright orange colour
- white sheer lace crop top (from H&M)
- for a relaxed look, I opted to wear flipflops (bought from a local market) instead of heels
- kept the accessories minimal with just a white bracelet & red gold choker (from Juvalia&You) to complete the look.
