Owning commercial property carries significant risks, which is one reason many businesses elect to lease rather than own. Fire, theft, and natural disasters such as tornadoes and hurricanes can have a heavy financial impact. Commercial property insurance is designed to help mitigate the risk of owning commercial property.
What Types Of Protection Does Commercial Property Insurance Provide?
When a commercial property is leased or rented, the owner, rather than the tenant, may be responsible for certain types of losses, depending on the specific terms of the lease or rental agreement. When things go wrong on your property while it is occupied by a tenant, your commercial property insurance policy can provide protection in several different ways. However, your policy will have a specified time frame, beginning from the date a loss occurred, during which claims can be made and benefits are payable.
- Natural disasters: When a commercial property lies in the path of a tornado or hurricane, the owner is usually responsible for expenses such as demolition, debris removal, and rebuilding. Commercial property insurance can help cover these costs.
- Bodily injury liability: If a visitor on your property slips or trips and falls and sues you for damages, your commercial property insurance policy can help cover your legal expenses and any settlement or damages you are required to pay.
- Breaking and entering: If someone breaks into your building, steals inventory or equipment, and causes damage to the property, commercial property insurance can help cover your losses.
- Lawsuits against tenants: If your commercial tenant is not paying rent or is maliciously destroying your property, commercial property insurance may cover the cost of suing to recover damages from that tenant.
Are There Tax Benefits With Commercial Property Insurance?
Your commercial property insurance premiums are tax deductible. You can write them off as a business expense to reduce your net profits and taxable income. Furthermore, if your commercial property is damaged in a natural disaster, such as a tornado or a hurricane, you are eligible for a tax deduction for all or part of the resulting losses.
How Much Does Commercial Property Insurance Cost?
The cost of a commercial property insurance policy can depend on several factors, including:
- Value: The overall worth of your building and total business assets
- Location of the property: Is it in an area prone to hurricanes, tornadoes, or other natural disasters?
- Construction of buildings: Was the building constructed with fireproof materials. Are the electrical, plumbing, and HVAC upgraded?
- Fire and theft protection: Does the property have a fire alarm, sprinkler system, and security system? How close is it to a fire hydrant and a fire station?
- Occupancy: What type of industry is the property housing? Some businesses carry more risk than others.
Commercial property insurance can help protect you against financial loss when things go wrong, such as theft, vandalism, burst pipes, fires, explosions, and storms. Our knowledgeable agent can help you find the best available rates for a commercial property insurance policy that suits your needs.

Review: Bottlehead Quickie tube preamp
The reason for this micro-rant is that I'm reviewing a product of a type long ago abandoned by mainstream audio manufacturers, and barely seen in S+V since the days when it was called Stereo Reviewand everyone was raving about a new band from England with a drummer named Ringo. The product is a tube preamp, a category that supposedly became obsolete when transistors were invented. Yet many audiophiles feel that transistor electronics simply can't match the warmth (or soul, or emotion, or whatever) of tubes.
There are still plenty of tube preamps to be had from dozens of boutique companies, but what's special about the Bottlehead Quickie, and the main reason I'm reviewing it, is its $99 price. How can someone sell a tube preamp for $99 when they normally go for 10 to 40 times that? Well, there's a catch: You have to build it yourself. There's another catch, too: The enclosure is $40 extra. Oh, and one more catch: You can't pick your color; you have to accept whatever random hue Bottlehead sends. And there's yet another catch: It's battery-powered. Plus two more catches: It has only two inputs and no remote control.
What's that, six catches? Fortunately, the Quickie has more to recommend it than just its low price. Perhaps most important, it promises the warmth/soul/emotion of tubes. Second, whatever preamp you have now, the Quickie is bound to attract more admirers — and, perhaps, more detractors. Last, you get the pride of building a piece of gear yourself — or, perhaps, the agony of screwing it up massively.
The Quickie is built entirely on a plastic plate (that's the part that comes in random colors) and uses 1930s-style point-to-point wiring. There's no circuit board and nothing in the circuit but two capacitors, two resistors and one 3S4 tube per channel. The circuit design is single-ended, meaning it amplifies the entire signal with a single semiconductor device, rather than splitting the signal into positive and negative halves and using separate devices for each half the way most power amplifiers and many preamps do. The tubes are pentodes, but they're wired as triodes, i.e., only one of the three control screens is used. Thus, it's a single-ended triode design, which many audiophiles consider the best possible type of audio amplification. Whether or not that's true is a matter of debate, but if you want a simpler way to amplify audio, you're gonna have to get a megaphone.
The battery power supply has some audiophile-pleasing points, too. Because it's pure DC, there's none of the ripple that can occur when AC from the wall is converted to DC. Of course, batteries run out, and their performance starts to degrade long before they die. Bottlehead combats this flaw with the PJCCS, a $35 add-on circuit board that keeps current constant as the batteries run down. The company says you get 100 to 200 hours of life from the Quickie's four 9-volt batteries and two D-cells, which by my calculations gives a worst-case operating cost of about 13 cents an hour.
All you get for $99 is the plastic plate and all the necessary parts. An unfinished wood enclosure costs another $40. It's OK, but nothing fancy, just four mitered and routed pieces of wood. (There's no bottom, but it doesn't really need one.) Anyone with a miter box and some framing clamps could put together a reasonable substitute with scraps of 1-by-4.
Incidentally, the Bottlehead web site includes a forum that's full of tips and tweaks for the Quickie, such as substituting chokes for the plate resistors to improve the sound, and adding transformers at the outputs to turn it into a headphone amp.

The World Sight Day Challenge, slated to take place on October 9, 2014 is an annual awareness day that aims to focus global attention on blindness and vision impairment worldwide.
The day aims to create awareness that blindness can be avoided if there is universal access to quality vision and eye care services for all those in need. Worldwide, many cases of vision impairment are simply due to the lack of a pair of eye glasses that would help correct a refractive error. The underlying vision of the campaign is to ensure that the quality-of-life and future livelihood of children and adults is not impacted because they do not have sufficient eye care.
According to Optometry Giving Sight, the organization overseeing the campaign, over 600 million people around the globe do not have access to the eye care and eyewear they need. As the ability to see well impacts every aspect of life and empowers adults and children alike to succeed at school or work, eye care from trained eye care professionals not only allows for the detection of vision problems, but can also help to identify early signs of serious health conditions such as diabetes, which can also lead to blindness.
What Can You Do?
Getting involved in the event is easy and involves making a donation on or before October 9. The funds raised from the World Sight Day Challenge are used to sponsor projects that enable training, establishing vision centers and delivering eye care services to people who are vision impaired and could benefit from an eye exam and a pair of glasses.
The call to action for World Sight Day 2014 is "No More Avoidable Blindness". Help make your contribution for better eye health worldwide. Donate Here
$25 could provide 5 people with vision through eye exams and glasses
$100 can help provide vision screenings for school aged children in developing communities
The Day is coordinated by the International Agency for the Prevention of Blindness under the VISION 2020 Global Initiative. It is supported by eye health organizations around the world, such as Optometry Giving Sight, and is included on the official World Health Organization (WHO) calendar.

Tax Planning
Tax planning considers the tax implications of individual, investment, or business decisions, usually with the goal of minimizing tax liability. While decisions are rarely made solely on their tax impact, you should have a working knowledge of the income or estate tax issues and costs involved.
A major goal of tax planning is minimizing federal income tax liability. This can be achieved by:
- Reducing taxable income through income deferral or shifting
- Deduction planning
- Investment tax planning
- Year-end planning strategies
Investment tax planning involves evaluating how to best position assets to minimize the amount of taxes you have to pay on an ongoing basis. This requires year-round planning, and it begins with an in-depth understanding of the tax implications of various investments and investment strategies, including:
- The treatment of wash sales
- Tax-exempt investments
- Gains and losses
- 1031 exchanges
- Qualified dividends
- Options strategies
- Tax-deferred investing
- Passive income and losses
- Mutual fund taxation
If you give away wealth, during life or at death, you may incur federal taxes—and possibly additional state taxes. These taxes include gift, estate, income, and inheritance taxes. You can help protect the assets you transfer from excessive depletion by understanding these taxes and the various strategies you can use to minimize them.
Starting with the formation of your business and continuing through the sale, tax issues are never far from the mind of the business owner, and it's likely that many of the decisions you make will be tax based. Your choice of business entity, how you pay out profits to the owners, and your accounting decisions will all have an effect on your tax liability.
Some events in life—retirement, for example—come with tax considerations. Life event planning focuses on the impact of significant events on your life, as well as on the stages of your overall investment plan.

Welcome to November! This month, we celebrate Election Day, Veterans Day and of course, Thanksgiving. However, one major celebration which can often goes unnoticed is National Family Caregivers Month. What began as National Family Caregivers Week in 1997 has now blossomed into a full month's worth of recognition and appreciation for caregivers across the United States.
As President Obama stated in 2012 during the NFC Month Proclamation, "Family members, friends and neighbors devote countless hours to providing care to their relatives or loved ones. During National Family Caregivers Month, we recognize and thank the humble heroes who do so much to keep our families and communities strong." Caregiving is a valuable position in our community which often goes unrecognized. Let's look at what National Family Caregivers Month is and how you can celebrate it.
What is National Family Caregivers Month?
Caregiver Action Network originally established National Family Caregivers Month as a week-long celebration in 1994. Then, in 1997, President Clinton signed the first NFC Month Presidential Proclamation. Since then, every president has followed suit by issuing an annual proclamation which recognizes and honors family caregivers. The month has also taken on its full-form and grown into an immersive experience of recognizing and supporting caregivers. NFC Month encourages and enables all of us to:
- Raise awareness of family caregiver issues.
- Celebrate the efforts of family caregivers.
- Educate family caregivers about self-identification.
- Increase support for family caregivers.
For those of us who strive to live an altruistic lifestyle, the month of November is the perfect opportunity to consider caregiving roles in the community and the impact they have.
Each year, Caregiver Action Network chooses a theme to recognize the month and spearhead the national celebration. This year's theme is Supercharge Your Caregiving! From their website, Caregiver Action Network states: "Caregivers are superheroes. Managing medications. Getting to doctor appointments. Balancing work and home. How can family caregivers handle it all? Even superheroes need tools! Thankfully, new caregiving tools can help lighten the load." The month focuses on the crucial work caregivers provide, and emphasizes how tools and individuals can come alongside caregivers to support them.
How can you celebrate National Family Caregivers Month?
So now that you know what National Family Caregivers Month is, how can you celebrate and support it in your community? First and foremost, identify what a caregiver is, because chances are you have one in your life. Loosely defined, a caregiver refers to a family member or paid helper who regularly looks after a child, or a sick, elderly or disabled person. For instance, the average family caregiver is a working mother of school-aged children. However, as parents age, many children can even become caregivers to their parents. Caregiving means tracking schedules, managing medications, helping with physical ailments and juggling multiple responsibilities during the day. The term "caregiver" can mean a lot of different things to different people, and it can present itself in various ways. The important thing is to maintain a loose definition for caregivers, in order to better recognize caregivers you might come in contact with.
This National Family Caregivers Month, the greatest thing you can do to get involved is show a caregiver how much you appreciate them. Write a caregiver a thank you note, cook them dinner or simply buy them flowers. More often than not, caregiving is a 24-hours a day, seven-days a week job. There are few—if any—breaks. Show how much caregivers mean to you by giving them a break. Take them out, show them they are appreciated and consider how you can say thank you.
Caregiving is no easy task, so National Family Caregivers Month intends to show appreciation, recognition and gratitude to the caregivers in our lives. This November, thank the caregivers you know for everything they do to make a difference for their families and communities.

Teeth Implants, Close Up and Natural - Is Implant Dentistry for You?
Teeth implants are a tooth replacement therapy offering natural-looking options for patients. Dental implants anchor artificial or prosthetic teeth into the jawbone. Their performance is nearly equal to natural teeth, providing a secure and comfortable fit, a natural appearance, and a big dose of confidence for people of all ages.
A tooth implant duplicates the tooth's structure. Dental implants are inserted into the jawbone is made of titanium. This metal does well in the body and rarely causes any reaction in patients. It is the same material that is used in knee and hip replacements.
- The implant is cylindrical in shape, resembling a screw, and may even have a thread-like surface. They're uniquely designed with small holes at the outside surfaces for a very good reason. Like the roots of natural teeth, tooth implants stimulate bone growth. It even fools Mother Nature! Over time, the bone tissue actually grows into the small holes, securing the implant.
- The abutment rests over the metal implant. It's a small piece of metal whose purpose is to connect the prosthesis to the tooth implant.
- The prosthesis is the replacement tooth, a natural-looking crown or bridge (if there are multiple teeth missing). A prosthesis that's used to replace a complete set of teeth can be either fixed or removable. A removable prosthesis can be taken out for easy cleaning; a fixed one can only be removed by the dentist, but usually offers better reliability for chewing.
How Do These Different Teeth Implants Parts Work Together?
Since the tooth implant duplicates the tooth's structure, each part contributes to a natural-like functioning of the teeth. Whether replacing one or more teeth, the process of repair is the same. The teeth implants insertion procedure involves three main steps:
- The first is the surgical insertion of the metal implants.
- This is followed by a second surgery, about three to six months later, to insert the abutment.
- The third step, usually two to four weeks later, is custom-making the prosthesis and attaching it to the abutment. There are typically several adjustments needed until the prosthesis is attached to the abutments.
Once the prosthesis comfortably fits, your future is secure. You'll enjoy comfort, confidence, and security in meeting the world and smiling in a whole new way with your new teeth implants.

Don't Forget to Floss!
Clean between teeth daily with floss or an interdental cleaner. Decay-causing bacteria can hid between teeth where toothbrush bristles can't reach. Flossing helps remove plaque and food particles from between teeth and under the gum line.
Visit Our Office Regularly!
Take good care of your smile. Remember to visit the dentist regularly for professional cleanings and oral exams.
Mouthwash Is Important, Too!
Brushing and flossing may not be enough. The ADA now recommends using an antimicrobial mouthwash to reduce plaque and prevent gingivitis.

Anterior Cruciate Ligament Tears
The anterior cruciate ligament is one of the major stabilizing ligaments in the knee. It is a strong rope- like structure located in the center of the knee running from the femur to the tibia. When this ligament tears unfortunately, it does not heal and often leads to the feeling of instability in the knee.
Causes of ACL Injury
An ACL injury most commonly occurs during sports that involve twisting or overextending your knee. An ACL can be injured in several ways:
Sudden directional change
Slowing down while running
Landing from a jump incorrectly
Direct blow to the side of your knee, such as during a football tackle
Symptoms of ACL Injury
When you injure your ACL, you might hear a loud "pop" sound and you may feel the knee buckle. Within a few hours after an ACL injury, your knee may swell due to bleeding from vessels within the torn ligament. You may notice that the knee feels unstable or seems to give way, especially when trying to change direction on the knee.
Diagnosis of ACL Injury
An ACL injury can be diagnosed with a thorough physical examination of the knee and diagnostic tests such as X-rays, MRI scans and arthroscopy. X-rays may be needed to rule out any fractures. In addition, your doctor will often perform the Lachman's test to see if the ACL is intact. During a Lachman test, the knee with a torn ACL may show increased forward movement of the tibia and a soft or mushy endpoint compared to a healthy knee.
Pivot shift test is another test to assess ACL tear. During this test, if the ACL is torn, the tibia will move forward when the knee is completely straight and as the knee bends past 30° the tibia shifts back into correct place in relation to the femur.
What is ACL Reconstruction?
ACL reconstruction is a commonly performed surgical procedure and with recent advances in arthroscopic surgery can now be performed with minimal incision and low complication rates.
The advancements in arthroscopic surgery make it easy for surgeons to see and work on knee structures through small incisions. Repair of the torn ligament can be performed at the same time as the diagnostic arthroscopy with fewer surgical risks.
The surgery can usually be done as an outpatient procedure which means you may be discharged to go home on the same day as the procedure.

1. Find yourself a bracelet that fits you properly. Measure the bracelet from clasp to end with a ruler or measuring tape (at the inside) and compare its measurements.
2. The other best option to measure your size is with using a flexible tape measure. If you don't have a flexible tape measure you can get creative with any kind of thread, cord, or ribbon and measure it afterwards. All you have to do is wrap the tape measure, just before the bone on the side of your little finger, snugly around your wrist. Place it next to a ruler in case you're using a cord.
For a snug fit: Add 0,6 cm to 1,3 cm.
For a regular fit: Add 1,3 cm to 1,9 cm.
For a looser fit: Add 1,9 cm to 2,5 cm.

As the investigation continues into the April 15 bombings at the Boston Marathon and the crimes that followed, more names are being added to the story. Here's a guide that we'll keep updating, with links to relevant posts or stories. As always, if new information comes in that changes what is being said about anyone, we will pass that along:
The three people killed by the blasts were 8-year-old Martin Richard of Dorchester, Mass.; 23-year-old Chinese student Lu Lingzi; and 29-year-old Krystle Campbell of Medford, Mass.
On April 18, MIT police officer Sean Collier was shot and killed. Authorities say one of the two main suspects in the bombing was responsible.
On April 19, MBTA Transit Police Officer Richard Donohue was seriously wounded during a gun battle with the two suspects in Watertown, Mass. WBUR reports that he expects to make a full recovery.
More than 250 people were injured by the explosions. Among the stories NPR has done about them: "Recovery Begins For Mother, Daughter Injured In Boston." The Boston Globe is among several news outlets that have also been telling their stories: "A Long, Uncertain Road For Limb Patients."
Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, 19, is the younger of the two brothers who authorities say planted the bombs near the marathon's finish line and later in the week killed Officer Collier. Tsarnaev is charged with using a weapon of mass destruction. He became a U.S. citizen in 2012.
Tamerlan Tsarnaev, 26, died April 19 from injuries he sustained during a gun battle with police in Watertown, Mass. Among the things investigators are looking into is whether he made contact with Muslim extremists during trips to visit his parents in Russia. The Tsarnaev family, ethnic Chechens, came to the U.S. about a decade ago. But the parents later left the U.S. Tamerlan Tsarnaev was a legal resident of the U.S. who once hoped to be an Olympic boxer.
Katherine Russell is Tamerlan Tsarnaev's American-born wife. Her attorney says she knew nothing about the bombings beforehand and that she is cooperating with investigators.
Zubeidat Tsarnaev is the mother of the two suspects. From Dagestan, where she has been living, she has insisted her sons are innocent. It has also been reported that she encouraged Tamerlan Tsarnaev to embrace Islam, and she "vaguely discussed" jihad with him during a 2011 phone conversation that was recorded by Russian authorities.
Anzor Tsarnaev is the suspects' father. He, too, is in Dagestan and has said he does not believe his sons were responsible for the bombings.
For a detailed account of the Tsarnaev family's "faded ... American dream," see this story by The Washington Post.
Mikhail Allakhverdov (Misha), is an Armenian-born man living in Rhode Island. Some of the Tsarnaev brothers' family members have accused Allakhverdov of encouraging Tamerlan Tsarnaev to embrace radical Islam. Allakhverdov, though, says he never did that and would have tried to stop the bombing plot if he had known about it.
Dias Kadyrbayev and Azamat Tazhayakov of Kazakhstan, and Robel Phillipos of Cambridge, Mass., are former classmates of Dzhokhar Tsarnaev's at the University of Massachusetts Dartmouth. All three are 19 years old. Kadyrbayev and Tazhayakov have been accused of throwing out key evidence — a laptop and empty fireworks canisters — that could link Dzhokhar Tsarnaev to the bombings. Robels is accused of lying to the FBI about what the friends allegedly did. There's much more about the charges against them here.
David Henneberry is the Watertown, Mass., man who alerted police when he discovered someone hiding in the boat stored in his backyard. That individual turned out to be Dzhokhar Tsarnaev.
"Danny" is the Chinese engineer turned entrepreneur who says he was taken hostage by the suspects late on April 18, when they commandeered his SUV. Taking Danny with them, they went to ATM machines to get cash. When they stopped for fuel at a gas station, he was able to escape. Because he left his cellphone in the vehicle, police were able to quickly track the SUV to Watertown, where the gun battle occurred.

You've already been there... Joomla! is a great content management system. In fact it's considered one of the best in the world. But the default article system in Joomla! is so spartan! Just a title, your content body and that's it. This is where K2 comes in.
K2 was built as a complete replacement of the default article system in Joomla!. Install it like any Joomla! extension, import your articles from the default Joomla! article system and you instantly get a host of new features for your existing content: rich content forms for items (think of Joomla! articles with additional fields for article images, videos, podcasts & other audio files, image galleries and attachments), hassle-free image management (uploaded item images are auto-resized to 6 configurable dimensions, either globally or per category - you can now forget about using Photoshop resizing!), comments, tagging, built-in options to extend content forms (e.g. to create product catalogs), powerful content modules fetching K2 content in any way you can imagine, frontend editing with easy to use access control settings (for content-heavy websites), powerful yet easy templating (and sub-templating) for going above the "Joomla! average", extended user profiles, user groups, blogs, a powerful plugin API to extend item/category/user forms, "drag and drop" media manager and many more!
K2 is the ideal solution for managing your content, regardless of site "size": you can use it from a small blog to a complex corporate site or even a multi-author environment (portals, runnings etc.). To provide a practical example, using K2, you can transform your Joomla! website to a news/running site with author blogs, product catalogs, work portfolio, knowledge base, download/document manager, directory listing, event listing and more, all this bundled under one package! And since K2 is extensible with additional fields to its base item form, you can easily create category-specific content types, e.g. article, blog post, product page, directory listing.
It's no wonder that K2 powers some of the biggest and most popular Joomla! sites ever built worldwide!
These integrated features in K2 not only save website administrators precious management time (from managing a dozen extensions which would otherwise be required), but they also allow for better performance.
K2 was actually built on these 4 principles: feature-rich content in Joomla!, ease of use (for any type of user), flexible templating, performance
And best of all? K2 is totally free to use!

The sales are a mixture of catwalk samples, showroom displays, returns and overstock.
Before sample sales, brands struggled to find a way to sell previous seasons' stock, so these items would either be burnt or sent to landfill, which ultimately pollutes our planet.

FEDERALIST No. 80. The Powers of the Judiciary
From McLEAN's Edition, New York. Wednesday, May 28, 1788.
To the People of the State of New York:
TO JUDGE with accuracy of the proper extent of the federal judicature, it will be necessary to consider, in the first place, what are its proper objects.
It seems scarcely to admit of controversy, that the judiciary authority of the Union ought to extend to these several descriptions of cases: 1st, to all those which arise out of the laws of the United States, passed in pursuance of their just and constitutional powers of legislation; 2d, to all those which concern the execution of the provisions expressly contained in the articles of Union; 3d, to all those in which the United States are a party; 4th, to all those which involve the PEACE of the CONFEDERACY, whether they relate to the intercourse between the United States and foreign nations, or to that between the States themselves; 5th, to all those which originate on the high seas, and are of admiralty or maritime jurisdiction; and, lastly, to all those in which the State tribunals cannot be supposed to be impartial and unbiased.
The first point depends upon this obvious consideration, that there ought always to be a constitutional method of giving efficacy to constitutional provisions. What, for instance, would avail restrictions on the authority of the State legislatures, without some constitutional mode of enforcing the observance of them? The States, by the plan of the convention, are prohibited from doing a variety of things, some of which are incompatible with the interests of the Union, and others with the principles of good government. The imposition of duties on imported articles, and the emission of paper money, are specimens of each kind. No man of sense will believe, that such prohibitions would be scrupulously regarded, without some effectual power in the government to restrain or correct the infractions of them. This power must either be a direct negative on the State laws, or an authority in the federal courts to overrule such as might be in manifest contravention of the articles of Union. There is no third course that I can imagine. The latter appears to have been thought by the convention preferable to the former, and, I presume, will be most agreeable to the States.
As to the second point, it is impossible, by any argument or comment, to make it clearer than it is in itself. If there are such things as political axioms, the propriety of the judicial power of a government being coextensive with its legislative, may be ranked among the number. The mere necessity of uniformity in the interpretation of the national laws, decides the question. Thirteen independent courts of final jurisdiction over the same causes, arising upon the same laws, is a hydra in government, from which nothing but contradiction and confusion can proceed.
Still less need be said in regard to the third point. Controversies between the nation and its members or citizens, can only be properly referred to the national tribunals. Any other plan would be contrary to reason, to precedent, and to decorum.
The fourth point rests on this plain proposition, that the peace of the WHOLE ought not to be left at the disposal of a PART. The Union will undoubtedly be answerable to foreign powers for the conduct of its members. And the responsibility for an injury ought ever to be accompanied with the faculty of preventing it. As the denial or perversion of justice by the sentences of courts, as well as in any other manner, is with reason classed among the just causes of war, it will follow that the federal judiciary ought to have cognizance of all causes in which the citizens of other countries are concerned. This is not less essential to the preservation of the public faith, than to the security of the public tranquillity. A distinction may perhaps be imagined between cases arising upon treaties and the laws of nations and those which may stand merely on the footing of the municipal law. The former kind may be supposed proper for the federal jurisdiction, the latter for that of the States. But it is at least problematical, whether an unjust sentence against a foreigner, where the subject of controversy was wholly relative to the lex loci, would not, if unredressed, be an aggression upon his sovereign, as well as one which violated the stipulations of a treaty or the general law of nations. And a still greater objection to the distinction would result from the immense difficulty, if not impossibility, of a practical discrimination between the cases of one complexion and those of the other. So great a proportion of the cases in which foreigners are parties, involve national questions, that it is by far most safe and most expedient to refer all those in which they are concerned to the national tribunals.
The power of determining causes between two States, between one State and the citizens of another, and between the citizens of different States, is perhaps not less essential to the peace of the Union than that which has been just examined. History gives us a horrid picture of the dissensions and private wars which distracted and desolated Germany prior to the institution of the Imperial Chamber by Maximilian, towards the close of the fifteenth century; and informs us, at the same time, of the vast influence of that institution in appeasing the disorders and establishing the tranquillity of the empire. This was a court invested with authority to decide finally all differences among the members of the Germanic body.
A method of terminating territorial disputes between the States, under the authority of the federal head, was not unattended to, even in the imperfect system by which they have been hitherto held together. But there are many other sources, besides interfering claims of boundary, from which bickerings and animosities may spring up among the members of the Union. To some of these we have been witnesses in the course of our past experience. It will readily be conjectured that I allude to the fraudulent laws which have been passed in too many of the States. And though the proposed Constitution establishes particular guards against the repetition of those instances which have heretofore made their appearance, yet it is warrantable to apprehend that the spirit which produced them will assume new shapes, that could not be foreseen nor specifically provided against. Whatever practices may have a tendency to disturb the harmony between the States, are proper objects of federal superintendence and control.
It may be esteemed the basis of the Union, that "the citizens of each State shall be entitled to all the privileges and immunities of citizens of the several States." And if it be a just principle that every government ought to possess the means of executing its own provisions by its own authority, it will follow, that in order to the inviolable maintenance of that equality of privileges and immunities to which the citizens of the Union will be entitled, the national judiciary ought to preside in all cases in which one State or its citizens are opposed to another State or its citizens. To secure the full effect of so fundamental a provision against all evasion and subterfuge, it is necessary that its construction should be committed to that tribunal which, having no local attachments, will be likely to be impartial between the different States and their citizens, and which, owing its official existence to the Union, will never be likely to feel any bias inauspicious to the principles on which it is founded.
The fifth point will demand little animadversion. The most bigoted idolizers of State authority have not thus far shown a disposition to deny the national judiciary the cognizances of maritime causes. These so generally depend on the laws of nations, and so commonly affect the rights of foreigners, that they fall within the considerations which are relative to the public peace. The most important part of them are, by the present Confederation, submitted to federal jurisdiction.
The reasonableness of the agency of the national courts in cases in which the State tribunals cannot be supposed to be impartial, speaks for itself. No man ought certainly to be a judge in his own cause, or in any cause in respect to which he has the least interest or bias. This principle has no inconsiderable weight in designating the federal courts as the proper tribunals for the determination of controversies between different States and their citizens. And it ought to have the same operation in regard to some cases between citizens of the same State. Claims to land under grants of different States, founded upon adverse pretensions of boundary, are of this description. The courts of neither of the granting States could be expected to be unbiased. The laws may have even prejudged the question, and tied the courts down to decisions in favor of the grants of the State to which they belonged. And even where this had not been done, it would be natural that the judges, as men, should feel a strong predilection to the claims of their own government.
Having thus laid down and discussed the principles which ought to regulate the constitution of the federal judiciary, we will proceed to test, by these principles, the particular powers of which, according to the plan of the convention, it is to be composed. It is to comprehend "all cases in law and equity arising under the Constitution, the laws of the United States, and treaties made, or which shall be made, under their authority; to all cases affecting ambassadors, other public ministers, and consuls; to all cases of admiralty and maritime jurisdiction; to controversies to which the United States shall be a party; to controversies between two or more States; between a State and citizens of another State; between citizens of different States; between citizens of the same State claiming lands and grants of different States; and between a State or the citizens thereof and foreign states, citizens, and subjects." This constitutes the entire mass of the judicial authority of the Union. Let us now review it in detail. It is, then, to extend:
First. To all cases in law and equity, arising under the Constitution and the laws of the United States. This corresponds with the two first classes of causes, which have been enumerated, as proper for the jurisdiction of the United States. It has been asked, what is meant by "cases arising under the Constitution," in contradiction from those "arising under the laws of the United States"? The difference has been already explained. All the restrictions upon the authority of the State legislatures furnish examples of it. They are not, for instance, to emit paper money; but the interdiction results from the Constitution, and will have no connection with any law of the United States. Should paper money, notwithstanding, be emited, the controversies concerning it would be cases arising under the Constitution and not the laws of the United States, in the ordinary signification of the terms. This may serve as a sample of the whole.
It has also been asked, what need of the word "equity". What equitable causes can grow out of the Constitution and laws of the United States? There is hardly a subject of litigation between individuals, which may not involve those ingredients of fraud, accident, trust, or hardship, which would render the matter an object of equitable rather than of legal jurisdiction, as the distinction is known and established in several of the States. It is the peculiar province, for instance, of a court of equity to relieve against what are called hard bargains: these are contracts in which, though there may have been no direct fraud or deceit, sufficient to invalidate them in a court of law, yet there may have been some undue and unconscionable advantage taken of the necessities or misfortunes of one of the parties, which a court of equity would not tolerate. In such cases, where foreigners were concerned on either side, it would be impossible for the federal judicatories to do justice without an equitable as well as a legal jurisdiction. Agreements to convey lands claimed under the grants of different States, may afford another example of the necessity of an equitable jurisdiction in the federal courts. This reasoning may not be so palpable in those States where the formal and technical distinction between LAW and EQUITY is not maintained, as in this State, where it is exemplified by every day's practice.
The judiciary authority of the Union is to extend:
Second. To treaties made, or which shall be made, under the authority of the United States, and to all cases affecting ambassadors, other public ministers, and consuls. These belong to the fourth class of the enumerated cases, as they have an evident connection with the preservation of the national peace.
Third. To cases of admiralty and maritime jurisdiction. These form, altogether, the fifth of the enumerated classes of causes proper for the cognizance of the national courts.
Fourth. To controversies to which the United States shall be a party. These constitute the third of those classes.
Fifth. To controversies between two or more States; between a State and citizens of another State; between citizens of different States. These belong to the fourth of those classes, and partake, in some measure, of the nature of the last.
Sixth. To cases between the citizens of the same State, claiming lands under grants of different States. These fall within the last class, and are the only instances in which the proposed Constitution directly contemplates the cognizance of disputes between the citizens of the same State.
Seventh. To cases between a State and the citizens thereof, and foreign States, citizens, or subjects. These have been already explained to belong to the fourth of the enumerated classes, and have been shown to be, in a peculiar manner, the proper subjects of the national judicature.
From this review of the particular powers of the federal judiciary, as marked out in the Constitution, it appears that they are all conformable to the principles which ought to have governed the structure of that department, and which were necessary to the perfection of the system. If some partial inconveniences should appear to be connected with the incorporation of any of them into the plan, it ought to be recollected that the national legislature will have ample authority to make such exceptions, and to prescribe such regulations as will be calculated to obviate or remove these inconveniences. The possibility of particular mischiefs can never be viewed, by a wellinformed mind, as a solid objection to a general principle, which is calculated to avoid general mischiefs and to obtain general advantages.

In popular U.S. mythology, China is the creditor-bogeyman. Japan is the place where robots take care of old people.
Mythology notwithstanding, Japan is about to pass China as the biggest foreign lender to the U.S. government.
In fact, the U.S. government is actually borrowing less money from China than it was a year ago — even as it's borrowing more than ever the rest of the world. (The latest numbers are here.)
There are a few factors at play here.
1. 'The U.S. Is Still King Of The Hill'
If you're a government anywhere in the world and you have some extra foreign currency laying around, there's a very, very good chance you're going to turn that currency into dollars and lend them to the U.S. government.
Despite what you may have heard, U.S. Treasury bonds are widely seen as one of the safest, most liquid investments in the world, and the dollar is the de facto global currency. "The U.S. is still king of the hill," Eswar Prasad, a Cornell economist and trade expert, told me this morning.
That's a big part of the reason the U.S. government can borrow money essentially for free right now.Countries around the world feel like they have to keep buying U.S. bonds, no matter how low the interest rate. (Roughly half of U.S. government debt held by the public is held overseas.)
2. Japan and Switzerland Hate Being Safe Havens
Up until a few years ago countries looking to park foreign cash somewhere safe would put a big chunk in U.S. bonds, a decent-sized chunk into bonds of eurozone countries and maybe a little bit in Swiss and Japanese bonds.
These days, many European bonds seem a lot less safe. (Italy is the biggest government bond market in the eurozone.) So as governments shy away from the eurozone, they're putting more and more money into Switzerland and Japan.
For reasons we explained here, this is making Swiss and Japanese exports more expensive — a huge blow to both countries, which depend heavily on exports. "Their domestic manufacturing is getting hammered," Prasad said.
To fight this trend, both countries have been taking some of this money that's coming into their countries and sending it back out — in part by lending it to the U.S. government.
3. China Is Now Importing Almost As Much Stuff As It's Exporting
For years, China was exporting far more than it was importing, and was keeping the value of its currency artificially weak. In order to do these things, China had to keep lending more and more money to the U.S. government.
Recently, though, China's trade surplus has shrunk dramatically. And its currency may be approaching fair market value, Prasad said.

A Cool and Quiet Glade and Iced Blueberry Tea for Outdoor Wednesday
As summer ebbs, an unrelenting sun will bleach blossoms in beds gone dry and overgrown. The vibrant pinks and reds of spring will fade as the blues and greens of the forest floor become ascendant. The landscape of the shade garden is serene and sings a sirens song; these are the spots that lure us to stroll or sit and read and ponder. A pensa tola. Grab a chair, stake a claim and pour an icy flavored tea. The day has passed too quickly. Stay awhile and enjoy the insects song. I hope you enjoy the pictures. I know you will like the tea.
Iced Blueberry Tea
1 (16-oz.) package frozen blueberries
1/2 cup fresh lemon juice
4 cups water
3 family-size tea bags
3/4 cup sugar
1) Bring blueberries and 1/2 cup fresh lemon juice to a boil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Cook, stirring occasionally, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat, and pour through a fine wire-mesh strainer into a bowl, using back of a spoon to squeeze out juice. Discard solids.
2) Wipe saucepan clean. Bring 4 cups water to a boil in same saucepan; add 3 family-size tea bags, and let stand 5 minutes. Remove and discard tea bags. Stir in 3/4 cup sugar and blueberry juice mixture. Pour into a pitcher; cover and chill 1 hour. Serve over ice. Yield: 5 cups.
I so enjoy participating in Outdoor Wednesday. I'm sending this to Susan at A Southern Daydreamer who hosts the event.

Clear Quartz laser
The clarity of this Clear Quartz laser is breathtaking! This stunning naturally formed Clear Quartz is believed to bring you the properties of healing and programability. Don't miss out on this stunning, one of a kind crystal.
Clear Quartz Meanings
Keywords: Programmability, amplification of ones intention, magnification of ambient energies, clearing, cleansing, healing, memory enhancement
Chakras: All
Element: Storm
Birthstone: April
Zodiac Signs: All
Wedding Anniversary: 3rd year
Number: 4
Clear Quartz Crystal Healing Properties:
Clear Quartz encourages clarity of thought and purpose to one's heart and mind. It works on all levels of the energetic and physical bodies and resonates with all chakras. Clear Quartz will amplify any energy with which it moves into resonance, including other stones, constantly broadcasting that energy into the Earths electromagnetic field. This makes Clear Quartz an excellent stone to use for healing, manifestation or prayer work. Clear Quartz helps to establish a strong, clear connection to higher guidance.
Clear Quartz History and Uses:
Clear Quartz has been used as a healing tool since the Ancient times. In Shamanic practices Clear Quartz is referred to as the "light-stone", an instrument of clairvoyance. Clear Quartz was traditionally used by Australian Aborigines and the Prairie Indians of North America as a talisman for visionary work. The Navajo believed it to be Clear Quartz that first caused the Sun to cast its light upon the world. The six sided hexagonal shape of Quartz crystal points allow them to hold a programme or intention, to magnify that energy and radiate it out into the surrounding area.
Clear Quartz Geological Description:
Quartz is a silicon dioxide mineral with a hardness of 7. Its crystal system is hexagonal which grows in a large variety of formations. It is one of the most abundant minerals, found on every continent of the Earth, though much of the quartz available comes from Arkansas, Brazil and Madagascar. Crystal Quartz exhibits the property of piezoelectricity, by which it can transform mechanical energy (eg pressure) into electromagnetic energy and vice versa.
Affirmation: I have the power to reprogram my thoughts

Investment will reduce wait times for potentially life-saving scans
A new Conservative government will invest $1.5 billion in its first term to purchase MRI machines and CT machines to replace aging equipment and add machines across the country, reducing wait times for potentially life-saving tests for Canadians, Conservative Leader Andrew Scheer announced today.
"Hundreds of thousands of Canadians wait longer than the recommended time for an MRI or a CT scan. That is just not good enough", said Scheer. "This investment will help our health care providers to deliver quality services with the most up-to-date technology, giving patients quicker access to reliable, potentially life-saving tests."
Justin Trudeau's never-ending deficits and out-of-control spending have put Canada on track to hit $1 trillion in debt by 2035. If Trudeau is given four more years, his debt and never-ending deficits will threaten our ability to deliver quality public services like health and social programs.
A new Conservative government will live within its means to protect health care in the long term. As written in a letter to all Premiers in August 2019, as Prime Minister, Andrew Scheer will maintain and increase the current funding formula for the Canada Health Transfer and the Canada Social Transfer.
"Canadians need a government that understands that balancing the budget is the best way to maintain the services that they rely on the most, including health care," Scheer said. "Canada's Conservatives will give you more help for your health, so you can get ahead."
- Justin Trudeau said he would balance the budget by 2019. Instead, he has raised taxes, imposed a carbon tax, and his massive overspending now puts health and social programs at risk.
- According to a recent report by the Conference Board of Canada, Canada's stock of MRI and CT machines is aging, supply is not keeping up with demand, and wait times for these important diagnostic tests exceed the wait-time recommendations from the Canadian Association of Radiologists.
- By upgrading and increasing available medical imaging equipment, Canadians will have better, faster access to quality tests. Getting earlier access to a test could mean an earlier diagnosis for the patient.
- In addition to improving wait times, this investment will also give provincial governments some additional spending flexibility, as the federal government would pick up the bill for replacing out-of-date imaging equipment that the provinces would likely have to replace.
- Demand for medical imaging tests is only expected to increase as our population ages.
