Episode 7: What's next?
How do you feel about the future?
Do you feel hopeful? Do you feel scared? Can we move forward together as a country? In our Season 1 finale, Carvell Wallace reflects on his journey, connects with his kids about their vision for the future, and gathers insight from Alexis Frank, a 27-year old army veteran who wants to make political change.
Alexis Frank
ALEXIS FRANK was born in Hartsville, South Carolina. She went to basic training right after high school, and spent 6 years working as a paralegal in the JAG Corps. She spent time in legal assistance, assisting soldiers with Powers of Attorney and wills. She also spent time working on high profile prosecution cases when she was the Non-Commissioned officer in charge of the Special Prosecution Unit on Fort Bragg. In addition, she did two brief tours in Germany and South Korea. Alexis' husband is serving on active duty as a helicopter mechanic at Marine Corps Air Station, New River, in Jacksonville, North Carolina. She and her husband have two beautiful children, Avery (4), and Aliza (15 months). After the 2016 election, Alexis was inspired to step up and serve her country again. She ran for Congress in South Carolina's 5th Congressional District in the 2017 special election.

Carvell Wallace: [00:00:04] How do you feel about the future? Do you feel hopeful? Do you feel scared?
Ezra Wallace: [00:00:10] I feel hopeful, but I also feel like the people in power are corrupt and I know we like to think of this country as being democratic and free, but like right now that... the whole concept of American democracy is being threatened. So that's why I'm definitely pretty scared. But I'm also like hopeful that we can resist and not have that happen.
Carvell Wallace: [00:00:45] What do you guys do on a daily basis like about it? Like what do you feel like if anything you that you can do on a daily basis about it?
Georgia Wallace: [00:00:55] On a daily basis, I think that honestly the thing that I can do right now in my life is to go into school and to sit there and actually learn what I need to learn, and I need to read, because knowledge is power.
[00:01:07] And the more knowledge I have, the more power I have.
Carvell Wallace: [00:01:15] I'm Carvell Wallace and this is Closer Than They Appear. And those were my kids, Georgia and Ezra. It's a thin and easy story to shake our heads and say that we adults have messed up the world and left the children with an undue burden. But that is as true today as it was when I was a kid. So how does such a thought actually help?
[00:01:40] Isn't that just another way of adults throwing up their hands and saying I guess we're done here?
[00:01:44] Good luck.
[00:01:47] As uncomfortable as it sometimes is, I don't yet think of handing the world off to my children. Nor do I think of protecting my children from the world that we live in. That would be dishonest and impossible and for black kids operating on the same streets as armed police officers, that would be simply unsafe.
[00:02:08] Instead, I think of sharing the world with my children. And that means sharing the problems and the solutions. Really, I think of us as fighting on the same side of a battle, a battle that pits that which creates love and life and serenity against that which destroys love and life and serenity.
[00:02:39] Or if you prefer a more dramatic reading, a battle between good and evil.
[00:02:48] When I started the show, I felt afraid, inept.
[00:02:54] I wanted to ask people what the hell we should do, because I didn't know what the hell I should do. A friend recently wrote that you should never worry alone and there's wisdom in that. So maybe I started the show because I didn't want to worry alone and because I don't want you to have to worry alone. So I began worrying with other people, with famous people, with activists, with doctors, people I grew up with, asking if we can go forward together and how can we go forward together.
Ensemble: [00:03:27] We have to embrace the diversity within our family, which I think becomes a school for embracing... How can we go forward? I mean it's... But I think it's way more complicated than that... but it also as simple as that. You can't... we're not going to...lead a country dismantle the government...that you don't love. I'm a survivor, man. I mean, it's not going to help... [multiple voices] There was so much going on.
Aunt Bea: [00:03:53] It's like, my one opportunity to be a mother. And I think I fell short in many ways.
Carvell Wallace: [00:04:05] This all is a lot to process and yet, it's still not enough. So before I answer these questions for myself, I feel like I need to talk to just one more person.
Alexis Frank: [00:04:22] My poor mother, you know, she she raised me the best way that she could but it wasn't... it wasn't easy for her. And seeing how racially divided we are as a country now in 2017, I can't imagine what she faced being this single white woman with these two brown babies walking around with people just looking at her.
Carvell Wallace: [00:04:47] This is Alexis Frank. She's 27, a biracial Army veteran whose name you might know because earlier this year she decided to run for Congress in South Carolina. The open seat was in her home district and reliably Republican. Frank ran in the Democratic primary against a Goldman Sachs banker. She'd never even been in politics, but she had been to the Women's March just a few months before. What made you decide to go?
Alexis Frank: [00:05:20] I was like, this is how passionately I feel about this. I need to be a part of this. I need my daughter to be a part of this. And I need her to know when they talk about this in the history books that we were there and that Mommy was you know, there to protect her and there to speak up for her and for her, you know and for Mommy and for all the women who are going to come after her and you know, if my daughter has a daughter, for all of that that's what I was there for when I was like you know what? I can't be scared. I can't... I have to start. If I'm going to be a strong mom and I'm going to raise a strong daughter, this is where it has to start.
Carvell Wallace: [00:06:00] Less than two months after the March, she filed to run in the primary. It was late. It was sudden, but she had to do something.
[00:06:13] Her whole campaign lasted just 54 days. She had 54 days to raise money and to build a campaign and to try and win. And if this were a movie, she would have done the improbable, right? The impossible. She would have won and everything would have changed for the better. But this is not a movie. She did not win, but she did get about 20 percent of the vote.
[00:06:40] Her campaign slogan: "Protect what you love."
Carvell Wallace: [00:06:47] Did you are you...? So, it's almost like you're doing politics the way that they tell you it's supposed to be done in the movies. Which is that an inspirational candidate with a message and a belief in their community is supposed to enter politics and and believe they can make a change. That's what they always tell us is supposed to happen.
Alexis Frank: [00:07:07] It's the way it's supposed to be done, period. It shouldn't have to be the movies that tell us this. And that was the point that I always had to drive home and that's what I told people when they were concerned about my age. I'd be like look, as you see everybody else on this stage, I said, some way shape or form all of these people decided to do good by themselves first, before deciding that they cared about the American people.
[00:07:30] I said, I am a veteran. I said and then I decided to run for Congress. I've done nothing but try to serve this country. I said, I didn't wait until I was in my 60s to say hey, you know what? I think I'm going to go try to you know, help the country out a little bit. I'm like, so I've always tried to do good by the American people. And for me, it was more like a listening tour when I would go talk to people. I wouldn't just say well, I'm so and so and this is what I want to do. The first thing I'd go up to someone and say is hey, I'm Alexis Frank and I'm running for Congress.
[00:07:59] What, you? You're so little, you're so young.
[00:08:02] And then I'd say to them, what's one thing that's important to you?
Carvell Wallace: [00:08:05] Yeah.
Alexis Frank: [00:08:06] And then they'd say, well this is what's important to me and I'd say this is how I want to help you protect that right or protect this or protect that. And that played well with people. I had people who voted for Trump who voted for me because they're like well, she gets me. She listens.
Carvell Wallace: [00:08:22] Alexis didn't have the option of only talking to people who shared her politics. She was trying to flip a Republican district, but it was a Republican district that was also her home. So she had to do more than just talk with people she didn't agree with, she had to connect with them, believe in them.
[00:08:41] She had to assume the best of them. It was a leap of faith. And sometimes, though not always, but sometimes leaps of faith can be surprising.
Carvell Wallace: [00:08:58] So I was driving north in California. I was, I was in L.A. and I was coming to the Bay Area and I decided because I had a little time to kill to take the scenic route, to go up 1.
Alexis Frank: [00:09:08] So like, Pacific Coast Highway?
Carvell Wallace: [00:09:09] Pacific Coast Highway. So I decided that I was going to keep driving north until it was like maybe three or so when I left L.A. proper and I decided well, I have like maybe a few hours, three or four hours before the sun sets. So I'll just keep driving along the water until the sun sets and then I will stop and watch the sunset somewhere. So I stopped to watch the sunset in a little town called Pismo beach, which is a little tiny beachside town and I had heard from another from a friend who grew up there that there is this like pretty intense roiling undercurrent of like of like conservative white stuff happening in Pismo Beach, which I sort of expect in every town a little bit. And I don't live in fear of it. I don't think people are going to like jump out. I think it's you know people aren't just gonna like come flying out of their houses to get me if I drive through you know, whatever. So I wasn't too worried about it.
Alexis Frank: [00:10:04] Get outta here!
Carvell Wallace: [00:10:04] Exactly, that you know, but again it's the flip side of what people think happens when you come to Oakland, that you come to Oakland and all of a sudden gang members just stab you and everyone you're with and that's the end of it and it's not like that. So anyway, so I pull over to watch the sunset. I'm on this beach and the sunset sets and it's gorgeous. I mean just tremendous sunset. And this... the sky gets dark.
[00:10:25] And I realize, I'm out there a lot longer than I planned to be. And now it's officially dark like, street lights are on. I'm on this remote highway road you know and there's no one around. And then this pickup truck slows down next to me. And I'm like...
[00:10:42] Uh oh. What have I done here? So. So the truck slows down and the window rolls down and this dude this this older kind of like upper middle aged white dude, kind of heavyset, huge white beard, wearing a baseball cap looks at me for a second and he calls me over to his truck and I'm like, what should I do here? And he's like, I have something for you and I'm and I'm like really weighing what my options are, because this could go really bad and we're living in a time of tremendous fear where it does feel like... I mean, I'm I'm 43 years old. I lived in America for that long. I feel more physical terror right now than I ever have about race right now.
Alexis Frank: [00:11:26] Yeah.
Carvell Wallace: [00:11:26] Right now, I feel that more than I ever have at any point in my life.
[00:11:28] So this guy calls me over and I'm like all right, well, here we go. So I slowly approach his car and he reaches beside a seat and he pulls out a little tiny wooden cross.
Alexis Frank: [00:11:41] Oh my goodness.
Carvell Wallace: [00:11:42] And he goes, anyone who stops to watch the sunset must be a lover of the Lord. So here, take this. May God bless you.
Alexis Frank: [00:11:49] Wow, that's so poetic.
Carvell Wallace: [00:11:51] And he hands me the cross and he drives away. And I still have the cross, and I to me in some ways... I mean, I think about that.
Alexis Frank: [00:11:59] Yeah.
Carvell Wallace: [00:12:00] You know, we had he and I both have reason to fear and hate each other given one narrative, but we also given another narrative have reason to love and support one another.
Alexis Frank: [00:12:12] Lately, I've had this feeling and I've talked to my husband about it and I'm like, I have to find a way to stop feeling like this. So you know military community is very close knit. One of my neighbors across the street, her husband deployed right now. So I went over and mowed her grass.
[00:12:31] I got a new hose and I didn't need the thing that the hose hung on anymore. So I went and gave her mine. And she watches my kids for me occasionally, like very close knit community. But she's not really aware of a lot of the like the political things that are going on. But she knows that I'm deep into it. So she asked me a lot of questions and I think I think she's into Donald Trump because she just doesn't understand like everything that he stands for and stuff like that and it sucks because when we're talking about regular life and our kids and getting a good education and you know, how we bond over things, we're all just regular people.
[00:13:09] But then we have this huge thing that just looms over us, like if somebody cuts me off like, on the road, and I get this like road rage, they'll like cut me off and then we'll be like stuck at a stoplight together or something and I'll see a sticker that that'll be like "Don't Tread on Me." I'm like, oh yeah, I bet you voted for Donald Trump too.
[00:13:30] I don't like feeling like that.
Carvell Wallace: [00:13:35] She doesn't like feeling like that, but it's the way she feels.
[00:13:40] Even after running for Congress, after going out and talking to people and looking for common ground and really wanting to find it, she still has this instinctive reaction that the person with the bumper sticker is just against her. She doesn't want to take it personally, but she can't help it.
Alexis Frank: [00:14:00] I think the hardest thing for me is my mom. I don't want to make her feel like it's all white people who were doing this and make her feel like I have some type of you know, festering hate against her. I don't.
[00:14:13] It's just... I've been trying to tell her mom, you got to get people who look like you to stick up for people to look like me and that look like you know my husband and that look like my kids. You have to. Because you know, black people, brown people, we're tired of sticking up for ourselves. You guys, white folks, you have to do it. And she's learned a lot especially from me running for Congress about how she needs to be as a person. You know, not just as my mom but as a political activist who is also a very conservative person, but was a conservative white person who was in the South who was involved with a black man who had mixed children and that changes a lot of things for people.
[00:14:54] And so I like that term I learned about calling people in and saying you know, you may not understand, but this is how I see it. This is why I see it this way. And I hope that you can see it that way as well one day and you probably will.
Carvell Wallace: [00:15:11] Do you have hope that this country is getting better or can get better?
Alexis Frank: [00:15:19] I have hope that we can get better. We are hurting right now.
[00:15:26] My husband the other day you know, he you know served in Afghanistan with a good buddy and they disagreed on the NFL protests. He unfriended him. This dude started talking about how he was going to teach my husband a lesson and some and I was like whoa, whoa you guys are you know, Afghan war vets together.
[00:15:47] How are you...? How is this happening?
[00:15:50] But we've lost a lot of sight about what makes us human and what makes our bond so strong. You know, we all want our kids to have good education. I want them to be happy, to be healthy. You know, we all just want to have decent lives. Why can't we bond over that? Why have we forgotten that's how we've gotten so far and humanity is not right killing each other off but by loving and nurturing each other?
Carvell Wallace: [00:16:17] And so what is that.
Alexis Frank: [00:16:19] Go ahead.
Carvell Wallace: [00:16:20] No, I was going to say the picture you paint sounds... I mean, I agree with it and I'm sitting here going... We're really, really screwed here. So I guess the question is like, like, what if that's the case which I think you're right, what gives you personally hope?
Alexis Frank: [00:16:41] I think it's just the person that I am. And I have I have two beautiful children and I just look at my kids and the problems that they have are so minute. Like my son is on restriction, all of his toys are in the garage, because he's not grateful for his toys. He always wants go play with somebody else's toys. I was like, alright, let's see what happens if you don't have any toys. And I'm like oh, to be four again.
Alexis Frank: [00:17:11] So Avery, what is your favorite thing in the world right now?
Avery Frank: [00:17:19] Bumblebee?
Alexis Frank: [00:17:19] Really?
Avery Frank: [00:17:19] Yeah. This bumblebee.
Alexis Frank: [00:17:20] Your toy bumblebee?
Avery Frank: [00:17:24] Yep.
Alexis Frank: [00:17:24] That's your favorite thing in the world. Not Mommy, not Daddy?
Avery Frank: [00:17:30] Nope.
Alexis Frank: [00:17:30] Not Nana?
Avery Frank: [00:17:31] No.
Alexis Frank: [00:17:32] Not your sister?
Avery Frank: [00:17:33] No.
Alexis Frank: [00:17:34] Your toy bumblebee?
Avery Frank: [00:17:41] Yeah.
Carvell Wallace: [00:17:41] Just like Alexis Frank's 4 year old son, I have a couple of favorite things in the world.
[00:17:48] I like the way snow looks on trees, solo piano songs with wrong notes played by Thelonious Monk, hugging a pillow when I lay on my side and sleep. I also like feeling like I'm not alone. I like feeling like we all have some favorite things in the world, some favorite things that don't involve hurting one another or lying to one another or trying to stand against that which creates love, life and serenity.
[00:18:21] I'd like to believe that, but I know it's not true because there are people who mean me harm, who mean my kids harm. I once heard that the real definition of humility is to have a proper sense of your own size in relationship to the size of life, of the world. That is, to neither believe that you are so big as to single handedly save the planet, nor to believe that you are so small that nothing you do matters. And for me to be in touch with the right size, that is, to right-size myself, in a sense that's really what I've learned over the course of this podcast.
[00:19:05] Mahershala talked to me about prayer, not as a tool to get what I want, but to remind me of my size, so I could be most effective. Eva reminded me to call in the ancestors so that I wouldn't have to fight a cosmic battle with only terrestrial power. Shereen reminded me to spend more time talking with people in real life than on Facebook and Twitter. Shamrace reminded me to stay positive and stay close to your friends and be honest and grateful about where you came from. Van and Rabia reminded me to get to work, because no matter how bad things are, rootless despair is still a far worse option. And my Aunt Bea, well she reminded me not to be afraid.
[00:19:49] Because life is a brief shadow anyway. Your present will become your past. Your fears and agitations and desires will become scrapbook pages and memories that change even as you speak them.
[00:20:06] But it's something that Dr. Virji said, that I continue to think about.
[00:20:12] Do you think it's possible for someone to be virulently anti-Islam, to wish harm for you and for your family, and also to be a good person?
Dr. Ayaz Virji: [00:20:27] Yes. I do.
[00:20:31] Or let's go back to the guy who said I was the antichrist. OK. And... Lets, you know, I will never change him. He just he has that stance and that's it. He could be the same guy who has adopted a child with cerebral palsy and has spent his life taking care of this individual. He could be the same guy who volunteers at a soup kitchen. He could be the same guy who goes on a mission trip to Africa and helps build houses for people, you know. So people who I think sometimes minimize their religion to just a belief, versus the whole package, they'll get the package of the heart and the mind. And many people have a great heart, but their mind has been distracted or diluted because of ignorance.
Carvell Wallace: [00:21:20] Many people have good hearts, but it's where their minds are, that determines at any given moment whether the cosmic balance tilts ever so slightly toward good or toward bad.
[00:21:33] And here's the kicker.
[00:21:36] You are that person. I am that person. It's not just someone else. It is us. I may have a good heart, but a good heart is not enough.
[00:21:48] I have more learning to do, more misconceptions to let go of, more prejudices to disentangle, more false narratives to dismantle, more fears to overcome, more internal lies to smash. And so do you. So do many others. If you're a person with power, be honest with yourself about your complicity and when it's time to choose between ego and kindness, then choose kindness first and if you can't do that, if you can't do that because your ego screams I mean, actually screams for love and attention and tells you that you were being threatened and that your very existence is at stake...
[00:22:35] Then deal with that, for the sake of all of us. Deal with that. And if you are a person without power, if you are and have been for your whole life on the receiving end of this nationwide trauma, this nationwide violence, this gaslighting, then the work is to allow yourself to be healed, to become whole, to believe in your value and in your right to be. You have a right to be affirmed. This in your community with your friends, with your God, with your higher self. Pet dogs, kiss babies, lay in the sunlight, make friends, dump toxic ones. Hug yourself. Look in the mirror and tell yourself that you are beautiful. Most of us are some combination of these two.
[00:23:47] The oppressor and the oppressed. Very few of us are all one or the other. We must start with ourselves.
[00:23:58] Challenge yourself. Assuming that you are part of the problem, somehow assume that you still have much to learn about how to be as good as the world needs you to be. Go forward with honesty and humility.
[00:24:15] Know that you are not God. Know that you are not evil. Know that you are a human with the ability to choose to be better than you currently are. So, every day, however you can, be better than you currently are and help others to do it too.
Carvell Wallace: [00:24:49] You think things are getting better or worse?
Ezra Wallace: [00:24:58] Better, always. We're gonna evolve and we're going to get better as a country, as a race, or whatever you want to call humans, humanity.
[00:25:14] Like, we're gonna get better. It's just a fact. This is the best time to be a human in history.
Carvell Wallace: [00:25:21] You mean, compared to all the other times?
Ezra Wallace: [00:25:26] Yes, compared to all the other times. I say in America. I'm going to say in America right now, is the best time to be human anywhere in history, anywhere in the world. I know it's a controversial opinion but I, but it's what I think.
Carvell Wallace: [00:25:43] What about you, do you feel like things are getting better? Maybe you don't know.
Georgia Wallace: [00:25:51] I don't know. I mean, see... I mean, yeah I don't know.
[00:26:06] It depends on who you are. There's no way for everybody to say it is getting better, it is getting worse, we're saying in the same place. Nobody's ever going to agree. We're conscious, meaning that we're never going to agree with everybody else.
Carvell Wallace: [00:26:22] So how do you make peace with that?
Georgia Wallace: [00:26:27] Well, you kind of don't. It's always in the back of your mind. There's no making peace with it. It's not... It's not something... it's something that every human is always going to have to live with.
Carvell Wallace: [00:26:44] Let's do IDs real quick.
Georgia Wallace: [00:26:45] I'm Georgia, like the state.
Ezra Wallace: [00:26:53] This is resident fourteen year old Ezra Wallace coming at you with the deepest thoughts you'll ever hear out of a random 14 year old.
[00:27:06] Signing off.
Carvell Wallace: [00:27:09] Thank you.
Carvell Wallace: [00:27:18] With kids like this, what choice do I have? What choice do I have but to be on the side of good and to bring them along?

A lot of people take pleasure in do it yourself tasks, and tend to find that duties for example choosing to paint a space can be quite rewarding as they are generally in a position to clearly notice all the success they may have produced as they proceed along. Painting usually encourages what is nearly a Zen kind of experience of serenity and also contentment. The principal gripe that almost all folk have after they take on a painting task, especially a larger task, is they get tired with painting well before the actual venture is accomplished. This is especially true if they are working with a brush for that undertaking. Rolling paint is much faster than brushing, but both of those grow monotonous before substantial projects are finally accomplished.
With thanks to the Wagner Flexio 890, this dilemma is currently a thing of the past. Examine a number of the many Wagner Flexio 890 reviews, and you should observe how men and women exclaim regarding the design and also engineering involving this specific exceptional paint sprayer. The 890 is made in order that the weight from the sprayer is always on the surface, but most of the strength and control is within your hand. While it's suggested that those organizing a painting venture properly put together beforehand through addressing floor surfaces and furnishings, plus taping trim and also windows, the sprayer is very accurate and actually has very little overspray. An 8×10 foot wall structure could be colored within five minutes!

It's rare to see a longshot win a Derby prep race; usually the favorite overcomes the weak competition, or at least a second or third favorite will win.
That's what makes Zakaroff's win in the El Camino Real so remarkable. The gelding saved himself with a ride along the rail for most of the race, and then made his move in the homestretch, fighting off Ann Arbor Eddie to win by a half length.
The longshot took advantage of a slow pace, then went three wide entering the homestretch to find a hole. Ann Arbor Eddie drifted wide, inhibiting the front-running Tribal Storm to slow down, eventually causing him to fade to fourth. Immediately a stewards' inquiry went up, and eventually Ann Arbor Eddie was disqualified, moving down to fourth place. More Power to Him was elevated to second and Tribal Storm took third.

Finding Another Side to the Story and Taking Action, Delegate turned trip leader Mark Braverman's journey
Eyewitness Palestine delegates are often told, "This trip will change your life." For Mark Braverman, that's an understatement. His first delegation in 2006 led him, a Jewish psychologist, to a new career advocating for Palestinian justice, mainly among Christians.
Mark was brought up in a close-knit Philadelphia Jewish community. Zionism was an integral part of his life. After college he spent a year on a kibbutz. "Arabs" were regarded as vanquished enemies, security threats. But Mark was coming to question the Zionist narrative. "The feeling was growing in me for years that there was another side to the story.…I had to find the rest of the picture." So he joined an Eyewitness Palestine delegation (known then as "Interfaith Peace-Builders). Going to East Jerusalem and the West Bank "tore me apart. I felt enormous attraction to the Palestinians and was enraged, horrified at what the state of Isarel was doing." Mark experienced an identity crisis, questioning his Judaism. Study and introspection led him to conclude that his activism exemplified Jewish values.
The next year he co-led another Eyewitness Palestine delegation. Since then, his advocacy has been nonstop. He has written two books and many more sermons and articles. He helped found Friends of Tent of Nations North America, the nonprofit that supports the Tent of Nations project at the Nassar family's farm near Bethlehem, an important destination for many delegations. Currently Mark is program director of Kairos USA, a church-based movement in solidarity with Palestinians.
When Mark returned from that first delegation, "I wanted to tell the story to my Jewish community. The [Zionist] dream was becoming a nightmare. [Israel] was in big trouble; if we don't do something to change it, it's done for." But his message was not welcomed. Many Jews "couldn't accept the Palestinian story because they're still preoccupied with their own victimhood" and the idea of Israel as their only refuge from persecution.
"The feeling was growing in me for years that there was another side to the story. . . I had to find the rest of the picture."
– Mark, on what led him to his first delegation with Eyewitness Palestine
So Mark took his message to Christians. He had been profoundly moved by reading the work of Naim Ateek, founder of Sabeel, an organization of Palestinian Christians committed to liberation theology. Mark immersed himself in Christian theology and studied the Gospels. He sought to reassure guilt-ridden Christians that criticism of Israel was not anti-Semitic. "This is a human rights issue. Don't be thwarted by being told you are anti-Semitic."
Eyewitness Palestine, with its focus on meeting the people, was the catalyst. "You see the wall, the discrimination. But what really turned me around was meeting Palestinians. It went straight to my heart, my brain."
Speaking recently at a Presbyterian church, Mark declared, "That summer changed my life, and I began my work for the liberation of both Palestinian and Jew from the evil of apartheid in our time…. I have not 'become a Christian.' I have become a better Jew."

In the shade of the pines and eucalyptus trees, a young rider wraps himself in his "jard", a large white sheet, before mounting a horse for racing.
In Zawiya, a city located 45 kilometers west of Tripoli, horse racing plays a central part in the lives of the people here.
These races are held every Friday, which is a non-working day in the country .
The horse races allows Libyans to forget the daily violence and chaos associated with the country all be it for a couple of hours.
Hussein al-Marmouri, horse rider
"I like the traditional riding, it has been my passion since childhood. This sport was practiced by our parents and grandparents. I hope that the general public will practice it too. "
Ali al-Hadi, horse rider
"Horseback riding is in our blood, our children and the whole family love it."
Their passion for the sport defies the insecurity and the risks involved in travelling hundreds of kilometers with their horses.
The atmosphere at the racing ground is very evident which attracts the young and old.
These horsemen mount their horses in shiny dresses adorned with shimmering ornaments, including traditional Libyan saddles.
The popularity of these races have helped to boost the local craft industry that manufactures the saddles and adorable ornaments, a feat in a country where violence has shut down many businesses.
"In the past, they were used by our ancestors during the Italian invasion, they fought on horseback and had special stools. Then, the stools evolved and were used in celebrations, events and parties. " Ibrahim Sueidan, manufacturer of traditional saddles
Combining leather, velvet and felt, these "jewels" of Libyan craftsmanship are embroidered with silver plates.
The price of a saddle also depends on the percentage of silver used for decoration, artisans use more and more copper and aluminum in an attempt to limit costs.
Despite this surge in prices, demand for these stools has not weakened.

Excerpt adapted from: David Carroll and Scott Wallace, Implementation and Impact of Indigent Defense Standards (December 2003), Award No. 1999-IJ-CX-0049, National Institute of Justice, Office of Justice Programs, United States Department of Justice.
One spring night in 2001, an unidentified caller dialed 911 and hung up before words were exchanged. The police were routinely dispatched to the apartment where the call originated. They were greeted at the door by Mike (not his real name). Mike appeared nervous, having used methamphetamines an hour earlier. The police asked permission to enter to ensure that no actual emergency was in progress, and Mike consented. The officers saw drugs in plain view. Mike and an acquaintance Mary (not her real name) who was also present were arrested and charged with felonies.
To anyone familiar with the criminal justice system in the United States, cases like Mike's are commonplace. They frequently pass through the system with little thought or attention by defenders or anyone else. But Mike was fortunate, and so was the community in which he lived. Mike lived in Eugene, Oregon; a place with standards for how attorneys provide representation to the poor. And that lucky circumstance made the crucial difference that helped Mike get his life back on track.
Unlike many other jurisdictions, Oregon has standards to ensure that defense representation is provided to people of limited means in a manner that is both cost-efficient and meets certain thresholds for quality. Oregon's indigent defense standards are enforced through contracts with individual attorneys, private bar consortiums, or non-profit public defender agencies to represent individual clients. These are not "flat-fee" contracts that simply specify a flat fee for a fixed number of cases. Instead, the contracts require attorneys to meet specific conditions, based on the state's standards, all designed to ensure that low-income defendants receive quality representation and a reasonably fair day in court. For example, they set experience levels required for attorneys to handle criminal matters of varying complexity and severity, they set requirements for ongoing legal training, and they set limits on the number of cases an attorney can take in a year.
In Mike's case, the Oregon standards were embodied in the team of qualified attorneys, investigators and legal assistants of the Public Defender Services of Lane County. One of those standards required attorneys to intervene early in their clients' cases. Section 22.214.171.124-2 of the public defender office's contract required attorneys to conduct initial interviews with in-custody clients within 24 hours of appointment, or 72 hours for out-of-custody defendants if possible. It was during this initial interview that Mike's trained public defender, Ilisa Rooke-Ley, learned he was a developmentally delayed 38-year old man. An investigator on his team discovered that Mike had been under the supervision of either Senior & Disabled Services or Oregon Independent Living for all of his adult life. A legal assistant was dispatched to interview Mike's social workers. She learned that the social workers had found Mary (the other person arrested that night) and an associate of hers named Tom to be at the root of Mike's recent problems. Since becoming "friends" with Mary and Tom, Mike had begun showing signs of drug use, and a suspicious number of television sets and VCRs had been appearing at his apartment. The social workers had tried to keep Mary and Tom away from Mike, to the point of having the pair arrested for trespassing at his apartment, but that had only served to make Mike distrustful of the social workers and their assistance.
To public defender Rooke-Ley, Mike was "kind and lovable;" a trusting person who could be easily swayed by people purporting to be his friends. From their investigation, the public defense team concluded: "Tom and Mary used Mike's affable nature and mental challenges to make him an unsuspecting cover for their crimes. They befriended him, drugged him and used his apartment to hide items they stole." The public defender interviewed Mike again, this time accompanied by a social worker, to explain to him the importance of ending all illicit drug use and of staying away from Tom and Mary. As his trust in his public defense team grew, Mike acknowledged that to stay clean he needed to stop seeing Mary and Tom, since they were the only people who ever gave him drugs.
With those promises, Mike's public defender went to the prosecutor handling the case. Mike's public defender knew that Lane County's drug court was not an option for Mike because of his limited ability to undergo the rigorous treatment requirements and schedule. After explaining Mike's disabilities and her view of the facts of the case, she requested that the prosecutor speak with Mike's social workers to verify the information. Through negotiations, the public defender and the District Attorney agreed that Mike was a candidate for the District Attorney's Deferred Adjudication Program. In Lane County, appropriate defendants are offered the chance to have their cases dismissed if they successfully complete conditions set out by the District Attorney. In this case, the state agreed to defer adjudication for one year on a count of possession of a controlled substance, if Mike agreed to abstain from all drug use, submit himself to random drug testing and, perhaps most importantly, stay away from Mary and Tom.
Oregon's implementation of indigent defense standards has positively improved Mike's life. More than two years into the program, he is living a clean and productive life. He moved into a semi-foster care program and is a volunteer for Adult and Senior Services. He calls his friends at the public defender office regularly to report on his progress. He has not seen Tom or Mary. He has not tested positive for drugs.
The standards have also improved the greater Lane County community. Early diversion of people like Mike out of the criminal justice system eases congestion of court dockets, decreasing the inefficient use of time by judges, district attorneys, public defenders, bailiffs, clerks and other court officers and staff. With defendants like Mike moved out of the system, correctional resources are more precisely targeted toward people who pose a real threat to public safety or are a flight risk. And fair and commonsense outcomes, as in Mike's case, increase community acceptance of the criminal justice system and the integrity of its judgments.
Had Mike been arrested elsewhere in the United States, the result might not have satisfied all of these different interests. In Louisiana in 2001, he may have been detained in jail for weeks or months before an attorney was appointed to his case. In parts of New York, Mike might have been assigned an attorney with 1,600 other clients annually, in which case he would have met his lawyer for the first time on the day of his preliminary hearing and had his case continued several times, wasting both adjudicative and correctional resources. In Alabama and many other states, he may have pled guilty to misdemeanor charges in exchange for time served, without counsel ever having been assigned or consulted, and without understanding the impact a criminal record would have on his employment, housing, eligibility for health or income-support benefits, or immigration status -- all issues that may involve future court actions at public expense. In other jurisdictions, Mike may have been assigned to a real estate attorney and been found guilty and imprisoned on felony charges simply because his attorney had no experience looking beneath the surface of a case such as Mike's. In any of these jurisdictions, Mike may have left dependents behind to move on to welfare rolls or may have been the subject of a petition to terminate his parental rights. His case may have been overturned on appeal for ineffective assistance of counsel and remanded to the lower courts for a new trial. Assuredly, in many jurisdictions Mike would not have been represented by a defense team who would identify the root cause of the problem, connect him with the resources to help him resolve those root causes, and aid him in becoming a helpful and law-abiding member of the community.
In Mike's case, success started with the standards, but it also required a skilled and dedicated public defense team, an understanding district attorney's office, and a court system that treated Mike with dignity and respect. The standards made it possible for that public defense team to provide more prompt representation, comprehensively examining and addressing not only the legal charges against Mike, but also the challenges of his life which led to the charges and which, if unaddressed, would have made recidivism likely. By requiring that public defense attorneys carry only reasonable caseloads, meet basic levels of qualifications, have ongoing legal education, and meet with clients early, Oregon's standards allow indigent defense practitioners in Lane County to be coequal partners in an effective adjudicative system that respects and carries out defendants' constitutional right to the effective assistance of counsel.

Our own health love story must change!
We've all been there; the washing is piled high, the dishes on the sink are in danger of getting up and walking away by themselves they're that dirty, and there's nothing in the fridge for you and your other half's dinner. The last thing on your busy mind is when the next doctor's appointment is scheduled for or remembering what the results of that blood test you had two months ago were. Life is busy juggling your kids, your career, and your home life.
This is where Jinga Life kicks in!
The Benefits
Jinga Life allows you to take back some of that control you fear you may have lost along the way. Between birthday parties every other weekend and sports days that seem to be happening even in the freezing cold these days, you Mummy's, or Jingas as we call you, deserve to feel as though you are bossing motherhood. In using Jinga Life, the Jinga gains many benefits, the main one being taking back control in looking after her and her family's healthcare.
The Jinga Tribe
Jinga Life seeks to empower families from all walks of life. We understand that feigning enthusiasm for yet another school talent show (that's three this year alone…), and finding the energy to keep track of everyone and their health needs can be strenuous at best. Now there's a place where Mums & Dads can gather to seek advice and tips from like minded people. Jinga Life wishes to create an environment for Mums and Dads to track the health and wellness of their families, but also a place they can gain insights into different aspects of family's life.
Women Inspiring Women
Jinga Life highlights the message that women are incredible powerful beings, capable of juggling a screaming baby, a hyped up toddler and a moody teenager like a piece of cake! However, Jinga Life understands that it's not always easy, and sometimes you may even want to join the aforementioned baby in his or her screaming. Never fear, Jinga Life has plenty of articles to help you out in the journey that is motherhood. Women supporting and inspiring one another is at the forefront of Jinga Life!
Role Models: Jinga Life and Powerful Women in History
Jinga herself, was an African Queen in the 16th Century. Who better than to centre the idea of strong, empowered women than this powerful woman in history? You're queen of your household after all, defending your family and making sure they are kept safe; whilst, let's be honest, also laying down the law. To quote another Queen, "Who run the world? Girls!" Whilst maybe not quite ready for world domination, running the household can seem just as difficult. Jinga Life is a platform that wishes to ease the stress of family life. Whilst also reminding you to take care of yourself, and not just those around you.
Prevention, Not Cure
Jinga Life believe the most important thing for any Jinga is to feel in control of her and her family's well being. That is why Jinga Life aims to help the Jinga in preventing any healthcare issues within her family unit rather than having to face an ordeal in the future. By being able to monitor vitals, record and store test results, and view exercise levels, the Jinga is able to see if things may be out of sorts. Modern technology, eh? It's an amazing tool!

To the east, discover the splendid castle of Aiguines and the Lac de Sainte-Croix, 2,200 hectares of turquoise waters.
In the distance to the heights, do not miss the beautiful village of Moustiers-Sainte-Marie, cradle of faience.
To the north finally, Digne-les-Bains offers thermal waters whose quality is known since the Middle Ages.
Author's recommendation
Outside the summer flowering period, spring (May, June) and autumn (September, October) are ideal, especially for photographers and discovery enthusiasts. And most offers are available to welcome you.
If you want to admire the lavender in bloom, the months of June and July are those to privilege. We invite you to consult the flowering periods according to the geographical sectors.
Safety informationWatch out for parking when you stop near a field. These beautiful roads can be very busy, park your vehicle in a suitable place.
Turn-by-turn directions
From Forcalquier, the route descends rapidly to Brillane and crosses the Durance towards Oraison. It then takes a small picturesque road on the left bank to reach Manosque, where you can spend some time in the footsteps of Giono ...
A small climb then to join the plateau de Valensole, true image of lavender and Provence ...
The rest of the section takes you to Puimoisson and then go down to the Asse valley and go up towards Mezel.
Then, we drive along the Haute-Provence railway (also called Pignes train) to cross the first lavender fields of the Digne-les-Bains country.
Arrived in the Bléone valley, in Aiglun, we propose you an escapade on the southern slope of the solid mass of Monges, towards the sector of Thoard where a producer awaits you to make you discover his production of organic lavender.
Then the descent towards Digne is passing by le pas de Bonnet before crossing the suburbs of the old capital of Lavender, where one can taste chocolates and biscuits with local products.
A variant is possible by Entrevennes and Puimichel to join Aiglun.
The route then follows the Route Napoléon to Barrême, and its imposing distillery, whose brick chimney, now abandoned, could soon resume service.
Since Barrême, the road takes the Nationale 202 towards Saint André les Alpes, door of Haut-Verdon and high place of the production of fine lavender.
The road continues along the shores of lac de Castillon to join Castellane and its soap factory. From there, you can enjoy the charms of the famous Gorges du Verdon, or continue your journey to Grasse, to the origins of the lavender culture in Provence.

World War-era weapons, automatic rifles and a rocket launcher were among the 57,324 firearms handed in during the National Gun Amnesty 2017, which ran between July and September last year. An average of 630 guns were handed in to the government each day, reported 9 News.
During the amnesty period, "anyone with unwanted and unregistered firearms or firearm-related items can legally dispose of or register them at approved drop-off points in each state and territory," said the Justice Ministry at the time.

Citizens were allowed to register, sell or have items destroyed. Around a third were destroyed, with the remaining firearms either registered and returned to owners, or passed on to licenced gun dealers for resale.
The ruling Liberal Party said in a statement that "a number of more unusual items were also handed in."
"These included a sawn-off shotgun found at a local tip in 1995, a handgun used in the early 1900s for personal protection, a pistol small enough to fit in the palm of a hand, and a heavily modified Russian shotgun," it said.
"I think it's good to have those guns either registered or destroyed because we can then track them," said Minister for Law Enforcement Angus Taylor this week, as quoted by ABC News. "We know they won't end up in the wrong hands. We know that any transaction can be tracked."

"It means we have even better firearm arrangements than we had [before] and we had some of the best firearm laws and regulations, we think, in the world," he said.
Australia is reputed for its tough gun laws, however the latest gun amnesty was spurred by rising concern over the number of firearms in the country in light of the December 2014 Lindt Café siege in Sydney which left two hostages and the assailant dead.
The government said it was seeking to increase penalties for gun traffickers, including mandatory minimum sentences. It also suggested another gun amnesty may take place in future.

The Fall in Nashville is absolutely gorgeous. The colors this year have been exceptionally breathtaking, and since we are just about fully into the winter season I thought it might be nice to take one last look. These are some photos I took on a hike Matt and I went on a couple weeks ago. The place we went is called Radner Lake. If you live around Nashville I definitely recommend this place, the hike is really fun and the scenery is great (not just in the Fall).
Gorgeous huh? Bye Fall, see you next year!
Photography is one of my favorite things. It is one of my favorite ways to express my creative ideas and treasure the beauty around me. If your interested, I also have a photography site (I posted more of these fall pics there too), check it out! www.sarahmophotography.tumblr.com

Why you don't need THEM to take you seriously #motivationmonday
Why you don't need people to take you seriously
Although most of my friends are in the fashion industry, I sometimes feel awkward around those who either aren't, or don't entirely 'get it'.
What does that mean? Well…
I was at a gathering a month ago, and I was being introduced to new people. Upon introduction, each person usually asked the infamous 'what do you do for work?' In each conversation, I explained that I'm a press and web assistant for a luxury fashion brand (and fashion podcaster – of course).
Interestingly, I noticed a pattern amongst this crowd. When I said 'press and web' they were interested. When I said 'for a luxury fashion brand' they seemed to mentally check out. When I mentioned podcasting, they seemed interested. When I said it was about fashion, they checked out again (or made a dismissive joke).
From that point on, I began to feel awkward. Instead of naturally sharing my story with others, I slipped into interview mode. "What do you do?" I would ask. "What are your hobbies, interests?" "What are YOU all about?" In doing this, I subconsciously deemed my own work too uninteresting to discuss – all because they deemed it so.
While I do ask questions of my creative industry friends, I believe that conversation is like a game of tennis. Ideally, there's a smooth back and forth, and one person doesn't blather on for too long. When the conversation turns from tennis to squash, however, the interaction adopts an element of anxiety.
Instead of human conversation being good for your health, it becomes exhausting. When other people dismiss your passion, the result is a dialogue where you must accept a degree of inferiority for conversation to continue.
In the past (and sometimes even today), I would allow these conversations to crush my soul. When you work long hours, read a lot and create a lot, it can feel like your work doesn't exist (or mean anything) when others dismiss it.
If I've learned anything within the last couple years, however, its that these people will always exist. Unfortunately, you cannot open their eyes to the merits of creative professions, or simply living a life with passion. What you can control, however, is how much time you spend with these people– and if they become your friends.
So, where do we go from here? How can we deal with those who don't 'get' your passion?
Well, I have a few ideas…
1. Ride out the awkward silence: don't subjugate yourself for a person who has zero interest in engaging normally. See how long their monologue, or the awkward silence, can last before they start talking.
2. Find your tribe: Podcasts, books and Instagram got me through 4 years at a non-creative university. Consciously seek out cool people and ask them for coffee. I dare you – email that cool Instagrammer in your town who you would DIE to be best friends with. Even if these like-minded people don't become your best friends, their light will make a world of difference.
3. Bring your Kindle: If everyone at that party is boring, feel free to crack open your kindle– or just leave.
And most importantly..
4. Keep creating! Often, these people trigger us for a reason – their boredom resonates with our deeper insecurities. Am I good enough? Is my work going to help or inspire others?
From experience, I have found that the more I keep creating, the less seriously I take indifferent people. To reaffirm your creative confidence, I dare you to collaborate with people from your #2 communities.
Moral of the story? When you have a passion, not everyone will understand it. While I let this bug me at times (I'm human after all), I look to my amazing experiences and tribe – they're the two things that keep me going.

Due to the tight supply of tech IPOs in 2017, companies like Snap and Roku popped as soon as they went public. Snap, though, seemed to go downhill rather quickly after debuting at the NYSE, pressured by continuing losses and disappointing growth. Roku meanwhile reported positive earnings before going public and is now up since its IPO.
As for 2018: Cherney says many people are expecting it to be a banner year for IPOs. However, some say the hype is overdone. With that being said, there are a lot of unicorns that could go public this year: WeWork, Airbnb, Spotify, and more.

"GI Jane"
100 Burpee-Pullups for time
–FAQ from www.thepaleodiet.com:
"How can I get enough calcium to build strong bones if I cut down or eliminate dairy foods and replace them with fruits and vegetables?"
"I heard or read recently that high-protein diets are detrimental to bone health. Is this true and how does it occur? Will The Paleo Diet damage my bones or give me osteoporosis?"
In the U.S. calcium intake is one of the highest in the world, yet paradoxically we also have one of the highest rates of bone de-mineralization (osteoporosis). Bone mineral content is dependent not just upon calcium intake but upon net calcium balance (calcium intake minus calcium excretion). Most nutritionists focus upon the calcium intake side of the calcium balance equation, however few realize that the calcium excretion side of the equation is just as important.
Bone health is substantially dependent on dietary acid/base balance. All foods upon digestion ultimately must report to the kidney as either acid or base. When the diet yields a net acid load (such as low-carb fad diets that restrict consumption of fruits and vegetables), the acid must be buffered by the alkaline stores of base in the body. Calcium salts in the bones represent the largest store of alkaline base in the body and are depleted and eliminated in the urine when the diet produces a net acid load. The highest acid-producing foods are hard cheeses, cereal grains, salted foods, meats, and legumes, whereas the only alkaline, base-producing foods are fruits and vegetables. Because the average American diet is overloaded with grains, cheeses, salted processed foods, and fatty meats at the expense of fruits and vegetables, it produces a net acid load and promotes bone de-mineralization. By replacing hard cheeses, cereal grains, and processed foods with plenty of green vegetables and fruits, the body comes back into acid/base balance which brings us also back into calcium balance.
The Paleo Diet recommends an appropriate balance of acidic and basic (alkaline) foods (i.e., lean meats, fish and seafood, fruits, and vegetables) and will not cause osteoporosis in otherwise healthy individuals. Indeed, The Paleo Diet promotes bone health.

Northeast Tarrant
Stickland sticks nose into local council race, points out candidate is Muslim
Local firebrand Jonathan Stickland is drawing attention for weighing in on the Euless City Council race —and pointing out that one of the candidates is a Muslim and "lifelong Democrat."
At issue is the race between Salman Bhojani and Molly Maddux for Place 6 on the Euless City Council.
Stickland a Republican from neighboring Bedford, recently posted on Facebook, stating EULESS RESIDENTS BEWARE: Currently, the Mid-Cities Democrats are pushing a slate of progressive liberals in our non-partisan city council elections. Salman Bhojani should be familiar to many of you. He ran and narrowly lost last cycle. He is a Muslim, lawyer, and a lifelong Democrat who supports raising your taxes. ..."
Bhojani 38, is an attorney and Maddux, 63, is a retired teacher in the Hurst-Euless-Bedford school district. The election is May 5 and early voting continues through Tuesday.
Stickland said he only brought up religion after Bhojani did so first.
"I have not said, 'Don't vote for him because he's a Muslim,' " Stickland said Friday in an interview with the Star-Telegram. "I said Muslim in describing who he is. I'm opposed to the positions he takes."
Stickland's post also stated that Bhojani was successful in having the Koran read during a council meeting, and accused him of campaign finance violations including taking a contribution from a "foreign national."
Bhojani said his Cub Scout troop was invited to give the invocation at a council meeting in March, and the passage from the Koran was about solidarity among faiths.
On the contribution from a foreign national, Bhojani said that someone from Canada saw his original Facebook post when he filed to run for office and contributed $500. When he found out that he couldn't accept foreign contributions, he self-reported the donation to the Texas Ethics Commission and the Federal Election Commission. Bhojani said he returned the donation, which was made to his Paypal account.
Stickland, who said he's been hearing from voters who appreciate the information he shared because he felt that Bhojani, who ran for office before, "had been dishonest about what his agenda was and what his positions on the issues were."
Campaign finance has been an issue on both sides of the race; Stickland donated $15,000 to Maddux for "block walkers, staff consulting and other services."
"They put a lot of money in this campaign," Bhojani said. "People need to look at what Maddux is doing to help the city; this is what the race should be about."
Maddux said the contributions from Stickland are just that, contributions.
"I'm not going to turn down money from anyone," she said. "Just because someone gives me money doesn't dictate how I am going to vote. I will do research and look at both sides."
Maddux also accused Bhojani of spending campaign money at Krispy Creme and other restaurants including Saviano's.
Bhojani said people who help him with block walking are volunteers.
"They work for a few hours and come back hungry. I wanted to give them lunch," Bhojani said.
'A very close friend'
Stickland said in a recent newsletter that Maddux "is a very close friend of mine and has fought for conservatism for decades. ...
"Molly has been a strong voice in our community and is the only one that can stop the dangerous agenda of progressive Salmon Bjojani," the newsletter stated.
The Texas Democratic Party took Stickland to task for weighing in on the race, saying Bhojani's story "is that of America."
"He immigrated here, worked hard going from convenience store clerk to respected business owner and lawyer," said Tariq Thowfeek, communications director for the Democratic Party. "Our country, our state and the city of Euless are better for having citizens like Salman.
"There's no religious test to serve in America or Texas," Thowfeek said. "Stickland should read our Constitution. The fact that these remarks were made by an elected official about his constituent is disappointing and shows how much work remains to expel Islamophobia in Texas."
Bhojani, who serves on the parks board, said if he is elected, he wants to focus on bringing more diversity and a different perspective to the council with his experience as an attorney.
"I can help attract more businesses to Euless, and I can bring a perspective from a young family," he said.
Place 5: Opposing views
The Place 5 race does not have the political fireworks being tossed in Place 6, but the candidates do have opposing views the city is going. Euless is the fifth largest city in Tarrant County with a population of about 55,000.
Incumbent Harry Zimmer is being challenged in Place 5 by Tim St. Clair, who previously ran unsuccessfully for mayor.
Zimmer, 73, a retired engineer, said he wants to continue serving on a "winning team."
He said the city has a healthy tax base and that the property tax rate has been reduced twice, and he wants to make sure city services are kept within the tax rate.
"The miracle of Euless is the consensus on how the city works," Zimmer said. "The department heads listen to people. We so want to keep our history and agree to disagree and try not to get into partisanship and be respectful."
St. Clair, a musician/song writer, declined to be interviewed by the Star-Telegram, stating that he would talk to "involved citizens" on Twitter @TimStClairmusic.
However, at a candidate forum, St. Clair said he wants to hold council members accountable and look at wasteful spending.

Substantial Yield Investing
What does Large Yield Really Imply?
Large yield investing has taken on a absolutely new dimension because the introduction of the internet and the fundamental personal pc. In the United States, a higher yield account is regarded to be something more than 5% monthly. Of curse as the outdated adage goes, the larger the yield the more substantial the danger. This is correct. You can not count on to make far more than an average percentage price with much less danger. It just doesnt make sense.
When discussing large yield interest accounts, are we talking about a savings account that creates a 5.4% yearly percentage return? Effectively, yes. And no. It depends on who you are and what you consider to be possibilities and sensible.
By now most of us have noticed about investment packages that claim to be able to make ridiculously large returns. Conventional traders cringes when they hear terms like 25% per month for one particular yr plus the return of principle, and they nearly quiver when they hear claims of 300% in eight weeks. Undoubtedly these substantial yield investment plans need to be scams. How can it be feasible to make such returns in this kind of a quick volume of time? And why isnt everybody out there undertaking this if it can truly come about? If these substantial yield investments hold any water then in just five short years we could wipe out poverty and homelessness and no child would ever go to bed hungry or sick again!
Are High Yield Investments Scams?
Think it or not this query is not a easy yes or no response. It cant be. The quick and risk-free answer would be yes, they are scams. Even so, it is crucial to realize what they are and why they have not all been shut down by the government if they are nothing at all more than a way to steal your funds.
High yield investment programs are not a area to try out to make an income. They are extremely volatile and unpredictable. People can and do make money from them, and at times its a substantial sum of cash. But dont get fired up and start off rushing out to re-mortgage your property just nevertheless.
Go through each and every single disclaimer on a substantial yield investment program web site and they will all say the specific exact same issue. Large yield investing comes with the threat of dropping funds. Never ever invest a lot more than you can stand to drop. Why? Because each and every substantial yield investment program will eventually crumble and individuals with funds invested are going to get rid of.
Substantial yield investment packages are based on principles related to gambling. Although most of do not, there are people in the planet who make their dwelling traveling close to to casinos and gambling. Is it a scam? No. In fact most of us at least respect the truth that the individual is competent enough at playing casino video games that they can make a residing at it irrespective of how we feel about gambling ourselves. The exact same applies to earning a residing from higher yield investment packages. Most traders do not even contemplate them true investments and scoff at those who try to earn a living by means of higher yield investing.
Most men and women who are ready to fund their life style and earn a residing by way of higher yield investment programs commenced in making use of one of two approaches. They either jumped in with each feet at the initial plan that sounded great to them and lost everything they invested or they researched higher yield investment plans right up until their fingers went numb ahead of ever investing a dime. Both way, the two events came to the conclusion that to come out ahead in substantial yield investments packages they would have to do ample research and completely realize the system and ideas just before they have been going to do well.
Earning a dwelling through high yield investment plans takes a program that is simple to implement and follow to avert early closing and hefty losses. This technique takes a lot of due diligence and of program, some quite specialized information about foreign exchange trading and even gambling.
Studying the websites method of investment can inform the regular high yield investor a good deal about the protection, or lack thereof, for any particular program. Most will admit to trading in forex, which any common investor can do with a small information and investigation. Some will inform you that they are trading in commodities as effectively and some admit that they are also gambling with the traders cash, literally. Any site that says they are gambling utilizing fool proof techniques of winning need to definitely be averted at all fees. There is no fool proof approach of gambling.
Substantial yield investing is almost certainly one thing to be averted altogether, despite the fact that that is an person selection only an individual investor can make. Nevertheless, if you select to get involved with a high yield investment plan and you loose your cash, that was your selection as nicely. Just like it is possible to loose cash in the stock marketplace, you are very likely to loose cash in high yield investments. An investor that looses cash in the stock market place doesnt normally file a lawsuit against the broker, so why are men and women so rapid to file lawsuits and complaints when they loose funds in substantial yield investment plans?
The answer is unpleasant but for the most component it is correct. Greed. We can accept that there are very poor investments out there and should we loose three or 4 thousand bucks in a negative investment we accept it as component of the prospective outcome of investing. But because we got fired up and our minds began spending the money we were hoping to see by way of a higher yield investment now all of a sudden the men and women who run these programs are thieves. Higher yield investments are investments even if they do border on scams and you run the risk of losing your funds. Remember the fundamental principle of any investment? The larger the return the far more likely you are to drop your income.
High yield investments are exceptionally risky and some of them are really scams. Scam artists are everywhere and if there are people in the planet who are prepared to fork above thousands of dollars in the unrealistic hope that they can flip it into 10 of 1000's of dollars in a comparatively short period of time then there will be individuals who are willing to steal that funds from potential investors.
Folks are prepared to donate their cash to any important cause, so there are folks who are inclined to set up phony charities to steal donations from offering folks. That undoubtedly doesnt make every single charity a scam and individuals arent going to cease donating to charities of their selection. Just as there are men and women who will consider benefit of peoples kindness and want to give to charities, there are individuals who are interested in scamming funds from people who are trying to increase their fiscal portfolio via high yield investment packages. That doesnt imply each and every single high yield investment system is a scam.
The one factor all high yield investment applications do have in prevalent is that sooner or later they will all fold, even individuals that start out currently being rewarding. Just because a high yield investment plan starts off making the returns that it proposed in the starting doesnt imply that it will carry on to do so in excess of a long period of time. This is how the high yield investor will get considerably burned. One particular or two applications that provides for a period of time doesnt imply its time to quit the work and devote all the obtainable resources to higher yield investing. It indicates that a single or two packages are undertaking well. They will not do effectively forever and sooner or later on they will crumble. That is the nature of substantial yield investing.
Large Yield versus Conservative Investing
Which investment approach is appropriate for you? Only an personal investor can answer that query for their own interests. Some people can tolerate the significant risk elements although others favor the stability of the a lot more conservative and standard techniques of investing. Some men and women are far more prepared to consider a gamble than other individuals, and by all signifies high yield investing is a type of gambling.
There are considerably fewer scams in standard investing. Some men and women will usually believe that substantial yield investing is a scam and there is nothing that will persuade them otherwise. Just since some folks are ready to be productive doesnt indicate that a program is not a scam. And just due to the fact something is a scam doesnt mean that some cash cant be produced anyway. Does it make it appropriate or actual or worthwhile? Once again this is anything that every person investor requirements to establish for themselves.
For solid investment advice and a clearer path to investment success, independent advice and research is the finest way to go. For all kinds of independent investment advice, end by onlinetradingideas for thorough investment tactics, guidance, and independent research. This website is specifically valuable for making the most from conventional trading suggestions and profiting from foreign exchange trades without having obtaining to enter the realm of large yield investment packages.

An intern was a medical doctor at the British hospital into which Sarah Jane Smith was admitted after she sustained injuries at a nearby quarry. He was likely Sarah's attending physician.
He also performed a cursory examination of the Fourth Doctor, but did not discover that the Doctor had a binary vascular system. Instead, his superficial observation merely revealed that the Doctor had a pain in his right forearm before the Doctor abruptly ended the examination. When the Doctor asked intelligent questions about Sarah's condition, the intern asked where the Doctor had completed his medical training. When the Doctor answered, "Gallifrey", the intern assumed that it was a place in Ireland.
Dr Carter, whom the intern knew at least by name, worked at the same hospital's pathology laboratory. (TV: The Hand of Fear)

My whole life has been dedicated to the care of little ones. From helping my mother when I was young with her own in home daycare, to my first babysitting jobs. I then had the opportunity to be nanny to two wonderful girls ages 3 yrs. and 4 months for about 3 years. Then, I had them pleasure of spending 3 months in Romania working with an organization called Caminul Felix. They are essentially an orphanage but rather than caring for the children until they come of age, they give them homes and families for life. There I worked with many children befriending them, teaching crafts and helping with their English. Now I have started a family of my own and desire to have my own in home daycare. Doing as my mother did before me, caring for little ones and helping fellow mothers with trustworthy and affordable childcare. P. S. I am also more than happy to take care of any four-legged, furry family members.
Hello my name is Nicole and together with my husband we run a very small in home day care. We have a unique program where our babies really grow up and learn together. We start with all new born babies then as they grow so does our daycare. We started as an infant nursery last year, then converted into a toddler nursery and now we are doing pre-school followed by a full preschool program next year. Then we will start over again!
