Tremocos: Relax in Lisbon and drink a cold Beer with lupins
In Rome be a Roman, they usually say, so while enjoying your sunny holidays in Lisboa you have to stop, let some time go by and relax while enjoying a cold beer, either Sagres or Super Bock, with some lupins, "Imperial com Tremoços".
Lupin is very nutritious low calorie seed (64 kcal per 50g) , full with fiber and good oils, like the ones present in olive oil.
In Portugal, called in a funny way the "poor man Seafood", they are served like peanuts. Salted and sometimes with garlic and herbs scent. they are the perfect appetizer and accompaniment for a cold beer.
And how to eat luppins or "tremoços"?. Remember that the lupines are served with peel, first bit gently the "tremoço" in its middle in order do cut the peel and while holding the lupin between you index and thumb squeeze it in order to "pop" the seed. "Practice makes perfection"!
Sadly they are not that common anymore, most times you have to even specifically ask for them, don't forget that. One place where you will surely find them is in the Palace, Restaurant, Cafeteria and Culture Center "Casa do Alentejo".


text: I think I'm ready to get a smart phone and really like the look of the razr and some people who own/owned one tell me they are great. Now I've been searching the net. reading and watching video some are informative but not sure still which phone the Razr or Razr Maxx? Also should I just hold out for a few more months to see if the phones mentioned get the ICS update.:blink:

So, who's excited for Christmas? I am. And to celebrate, I made a candy that did NOT photograph well.
Yeahhhhhhh. So. Anyway. These little reindeer nuggets are Chocolate Bon Bons!
- ½ cup granulated sugar
- ½ cup sifted flour
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 2 Tablespoons butter
- 1 egg
- 1 cup evaporated milk
- 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1 cup chopped nuts
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- Combine all ingredients except nuts and vanilla in saucepan over medium heat. Stirring constantly, cook until very thick (about 10-12 minutes). Remove from heat and stir in vanilla.
- Chill about one hour. Drop chocolate mixture from teaspoon into chopped nuts. Roll into small balls and chill until served.
They really don't even look good on the cover, either. But who cares? They are chocolate, right?
These intrigued me because of the saucepan preparation. I wondered what the finished product would taste like. Would it be more like fudge? Would it taste like saucepan brownie batter? Ganache? I was dying to find out. So when TJ finally went down for a nap, I hustled into the kitchen and Alex and I stirred up some chocolate treats.
Rolling these with a three-year old was a bit challenging, so we only got a shot of them in the pan before a very messy rolling ensued. But you can see that the mixture did thicken quite a bit after being chilled.
And photographing them with a hungry husband around was also a challenge.
"What's that face for?"
"These taste like something."
"Pudding. These taste like really thick, chocolate-y pudding. In ball form."
The Verdict: Pudding
From the Tasting Notes –
So, if you have always been yearning to make pudding into a candy/cookie, then these are for you. I was slightly disappointed that these didn't taste like brownie batter like I had been fantasizing they would, but these weren't bad at all. They were creamy with a good chocolate flavor. The nuts added a good crunchy texture and kept them from being too sticky when you picked them up. They tasted much better after being chilled in the fridge, so be sure to let them get sufficiently cold before foisting your pudding balls off on friends and relatives. Or yourself.
Merry Christmas!

Great experience purchasing a new Samsung flat screen TV. The salesman (who is also the store manager) was very helpful but not pushy. After installation it s clear we made the right decision. The team that delivered the TV, set it up for us and helped us move the old TV. Very helpful and pleasant. All in all, a great experience.

Salesman/Manager Michael was exceptional in his customer focus, product knowledge, and suggestions for meeting our viewing desires. The store itself was very user friendly; clean, uncluttered, and with visually-appealing product displays. Delivery of our new TV was easily scheduled and extremely professional. The delivery crew members were a credit to the store. If you go into the store chances are you'll come out a new TV owner.

The personal service at the Fairfax Big Screen Store is excellent. The quality of the products they carry, such as Samsung and Bose are rated as some of the best. When they have sales the deals are especially appealing although their regular prices are good and competitive anytime. Delivery and set-up were on time and so helpful. Our purchase consisted of a 75" Samsung TV, Bose Soundbar, and console to set the TV on as I did not want it hung on the wall. We are having a little issue with the soundbar (may be user issue!) but am confident if we reach out to the store we can get the assistance we need.

I had a problem with my Samsung 55 inch TV, the staff was great and worked hard to resolve the problem. But the third party extended warranty company they use is awful. I started in Aug with a repair ticket, two different repair companies and no shows later, company number three picked up my TV and I finally received a new TV in Dec. Again the Big Screen Store staff are great!

This is THE place to go for all of your TV and audio/video needs. They go above and beyond to find the best deal to fit your needs and have the personnel that guide you every step of the way. Never pushy, never tying to sell you anything more than you need/ask for, just top-notch, ultra-knowledgeable salespeople who truly have your best interests in mind. I worked with Matt at this store and appreciated his attention to detail and willingness to find the best deal out there on my new Samsung TV. It was a throwback to when stores placed emphasis on customer service, followed through on commitments to the customer and provided an outstanding customer experience. I will be returning here for all of my future Audio/Video needs.

Daily comprehensive market and economic trends through clear and compelling charts.
Start the week off right with this one-page snapshot of headlines and market performance.
Our views on the recent dislocation and the opportunity it presents
This weekly update provides a snapshot of changes in the economy and markets and their implications for investors.
The length of the coming recession depends on the monetary and fiscal response. With market technicals proving challenging, do current valuations compensate investors for increased default risk?
Concerns remain heightened around both the spread and the economic repercussions of the COVID-19 virus. We assess the gamechangers to the situation over the past week, and what it would take to stabilise markets.
Two things we said we needed – fiscal stimulus from the US government and corporate bond purchases by the Federal Reserve (Fed) – have now happened. Does that mean it 's time to start buying corporate bonds and, if so, how far down the quality spectrum?
The spread of the coronavirus and its impact on global economic activity is increasingly troubling investors.
Just as headwinds from trade policy were beginning to dissipate, the outbreak of COVID-19 has pushed the global economy into recession.
We raised the probability of Recession to 55% after virus-induced shocks, oil prices' collapse and violent market volatility. We are de-risking, adding very high quality duration, while expecting credit markets to cheapen and reserve currencies to do well

Numerous people face the problems when they will produce a browse for the relevant files. It occurs because as a rule, the microfiche are certainly not well organized and in basic, the agencies shop some sort of lot connected with deeds. When you own elected the main Virtual Data Rooms data room for m&a, you have an opportunity to systematize your individual archives and find anything at all really massively quickly.
To start with, it is definitely very vital to be aware of everything that the readers is. If you would like keep the actual
technique actions, do not encourage one to pick and choose the costless repositories. But if you actually want to be able to save
the main information, such zero cost DWs comes in helpful to one.
A fantastic number about businesses perform not start out utilizing the exact VDRs due to the fact that they insanely expensive. However, its to state of which within reality, just about all the assistance include really good. The very most famous vendors price pertaining to 100$ seasoned 30 days. It isn't for that reason overpriced. Nearly everybody knows there exists Virtual Data Rooms which in turn cost your lot however everybody is certainly entitled towards opt for. In top involving that, you can find such varieties which get charge for any people with the room.
The companies today are familiar with using rather than being worried of the particular revolutions. They will possibly be great for any sort of sphere with pastime, the particular public nutritional, the vendor banking as well as governmental bureaus.

So, we tend to decided that will look at this subject and to assume how the exact different technological know-how can be useful for distinct spheres.

Usually, practically all the DWs have become simple. Although even in cases where you are not able to use them, their very own allow support will teach people easy methods to operate with it all.
To review everything, everyone have that will pay money for the main Virtual Data Rooms if you present weight for the safeness to your files, have to have
the convenience and a lot of pleasurable possible choices in addition to if you desire to save major time. But in the event that almost all these reasons conduct

Daniel White, one of our roofing experts, has put together a three part series to help homeowners learn about on cedar shingle roofs. Are all cedar shingle roofs created equal? In part one, Daniel talks to us about the makeup of a cedar shingle roof.
Today we're way out in McMinnville taking a look at what we're told is a shake roof. It actually is not a shake roof; it's a shingle roof, a 5x shingle. Now, unfortunately a lot of contractors don't know the difference, they say they're roofing contractors, they say they can put on shakes, but if they do it wrong it's just not going to work. Let's show you the difference. This is a 5x shingle. From here to here is five inches and we'll take a tape measure to show you. That's the exposure you have, five inches of exposure. Underneath here, the actual shingle is 16 inches, 16-18 inches depending on what they're using. Another contractor came in to do this section and they did it completely wrong.
If you have a cedar shingle roof and would like to make sure it's staying in tip top shape, call on Roof Life of Oregon to perform one of our free roof maintenance inspections.

text: The problem with some older houses is that attic insulation often comes into direct contact with the roof. There may be soffit vents in place, and ventilation directly above the attic insulation, but that one small area of insulation is coming in contact with the roof. The area in question is where the attic floor, the sloping roof, and the house siding all connect. That one small area becomes much warmer than the rest of the roof. It melts the snow, and as it drips further down, the roof becomes colder again, and the water turns into ice, forming the dams. If you installed two new soffit vents, that will improve overall ventilation, but it will not tackle the problem of the ice dams. What you need to do is install some baffles in that problem area to allow a smooth and complete flow of air between the soffits and the attic. This should eliminate or reduce the ice dam.

Welcome to the 2019 Emmy Circuit series, where we analyze and predict all your favorite TV series and their chances with the Television Academy (at least at this time of publishing). The series examines the shows and performances about their awards potential, most notably the Emmy Awards. Emmy nomination voting opens June 10 and closes on June 24. The official Emmy nominations will be announced on Tuesday, July 16 while the ceremony airs on FOX Sunday, Sept. 22. All Emmy pieces run with the following schedule: Mondays (Dramas), Tuesdays (Network Spotlight), Wednesdays (Comedies), Thursdays (Network Spotlight), Fridays (Limited Series, Variety Series, Below-the Lines).
FX has been in contention for the Comedy Series prize with "Atlanta" the past two years. Unfortunately, the show did not air any new episodes this past year, which means FX is without its Emmy heavy hitter. Still, the network can certainly count on a nomination for Pamela Adlon in Lead Actress in a Comedy Series for "Better Things." Adlon has been nominated for both of the show's two seasons. Emmy loves comedians in semi-autobiographical roles (FX broke into the comedy categories with Louis CK in "Louie"). The real question will be if "Better Things" can get more nominations than just Adlon. The show's third season was received with the same positive reviews that the first two seasons were. It obviously has enough passionate voters to get Adlon in. There's a world in which it can mobilize this passionate fan base and earn Comedy Series, Directing or Writing nominations.
FX's "What We Do In The Shadows" injects some new blood into the comedy races. The vampire-centric comedy may seem like an odd fit for Emmys. Yet, it boasts a surprisingly strong Emmy pedigree. Creator Jemaine Clement saw great Emmy success with his previous project, "Flight of the Conchords," which received nominations for Comedy Series, Directing, Writing and Acting. Plus, the Emmys eventually came around to the vampire drama "True Blood," nominating it in Drama Series for its second season. In terms of acting nominations, Matt Berry, Kayvan Novak and Natasia Demetriou are all submitting in the lead category. Those races may be a bit too crowded, however, Mark Proksch stands out among the Supporting Actors in the show. If fans are rallying around one performance, his might be the one that catches fire.
"You're the Worst" has been a stellar comedy over the past five seasons. Despite featuring one of the best portrayals of depression, the show has never factored into the Emmy race. In fact, the show has never received a single nomination over the course of its run. Though this is the show's last season, it doesn't look like the Emmys will give the series one last reward. Similarly, "It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia" has only received nominations in the Stunt Coordination category over its twelve season run. It's unlikely season thirteen will change that. "Mr. Inbetween" also looks to contend for its first season. However, it may be too low profile compared to FX's other larger comedies.
The partnership of FX and Ryan Murphy always leads to Emmy gold. Of the three shows he has previously created for FX, all three were nominated at the Primetime Emmy Awards. Two projects – "American Horror Story" and "Feud" – contended for the top prize (Outstanding Limited Series). Additionally, he served as executive producer on winning limited series such as "American Crime Story: The People vs. O.J. Simpson" and "The Assassination of Gianni Versace." All of these projects have been in the limited series space, other than "Nip/Tuck" which received a Drama Directing nomination for its first season. This year, Murphy has two shows competing in the drama field for the first time.
This track record bodes well for Murphy's latest project, "Pose," about '80s ball culture in the LGBTQIA+ community. In January, the show received two Golden Globe nominations – Best Drama Series and Best Drama Actor for Billy Porter. The Golden Globes usually loves new series. With so many vacancies in Drama Series, the show could replicate these nominations. On the acting front, we may have our first transgender nominees in either the Lead or Supporting categories. MJ Rodriguez, Indya Moore and Dominique Jackson all could receive their first career nominations. Rodriguez is in the lead category, while Moore and Jackson are in supporting. The critically acclaimed show will also be airing new episodes during the voting period, which could help.
A new change in rules has placed "American Horror Story: Apocalypse" in the drama categories. The first four seasons of the show were nominated for Best Miniseries, but it hasn't returned there since 2015. Both "Hotel" and "Cult" were able to get two acting nominations, despite lukewarm reviews. "Roanoke," however, was the only season to receive no primetime nominations. Reviews for "Apocalypse" are on par with the past few seasons, meaning acting nominations could be in play. Yet, the drama categories are more competitive and the show may not be able to resurface here.
Both "Mayans M.C." and "Snowfall" are also competing in the drama categories.
FX wants to continue its winning streak in Limited Series. The network has won three of the last five awards in this category. In the past, FX has had multiple shows in this category, such as "Fargo," "Feud," "American Crime Story" and "American Horror Story." This year, "Fosse/Verdon" is their lone submission. Thankfully, it's an incredibly strong show. Sam Rockwell and Michelle Williams chart the rise and fall of Bob Fosse and Gwen Verdon's careers. Both actors seem like great bets for acting prizes. Many have noted that Williams, in particular, gives one of the best performances of her career. She could win the Lead Actress in a Limited Series category. If the show runs the gauntlet with nominations, it could pull in supporting nominations for Norbert Leo Butz and Margaret Qualley.
FX built up its Emmy credibility slowly but surely, starting in the early 2000s. On the drama side, shows like "The Shield," "Rescue Me" and "Nip/Tuck" received directing, writing and acting nominations. Both Michael Chicklis ("The Shield") in 2002 and Andre Braugher ("Thief") in 2006 were able to win Lead Actor in a Drama and Miniseries, respectively.
FX finally made it into Drama Series in 2007, when "Damages" picked up six primetime Emmy nominations. The show contended in Drama Series from 2007-2008, with Glenn Close winning Emmys both years for Lead Actress. Zeljko Ivanek also pulled a surprise win in Supporting Actor in 2007. There have been other dramas that have appeared in some categories, such as "Justified," which won Margo Martindale a Supporting Actress prize. The next big FX drama at the Emmys was "The Americans," which steadily increased its nomination total year by year. By the end of its run, it was competing for Drama Series, while also winning for Writing and Actor (Matthew Rhys).
It took longer for FX to receive its first Comedy Series nomination. After two years of acting and writing nominations (including one writing win), "Louie" finally earned a Comedy Series nomination in 2013. It would return to the Comedy Series race in 2014 and 2015 without winning. After "Louie" wrapped, "Baskets" and "Better Things" both appeared in acting categories. It wasn't until "Atlanta" premiered in 2017 that FX had a serious contender in the Comedy Series race again. It came very close to winning the category in 2017 and 2018. However, it won Directing and Actor for Donald Glover in the first year. The first season, the show received six nominations. By season two, "Atlanta" increased its nomination count to sixteen. When the series returns for Season three, expect "Atlanta" to be a major player across all comedy categories yet again.
While FX has yet to win Best Drama or Comedy Series, it has been incredibly successful recently in the Limited Series category. FX has won three of the last five Limited Series prizes. This includes last year's "The Assassination of Gianni Versace," "American Crime Story: The People vs. O.J. Simpson" in 2016 and "Fargo" Season One in 2014. "The People vs. O.J. Simpson," in particular, was the biggest success for FX. Ryan Murphy's recreation of the famed trial earned 22 nominations, including 13 in the primetime Emmy categories. In the end, it won the most nominations of the night, nine overall including five during the Primetime televised event. FX's domination of the limited series field began with the first season of Ryan Murphy's anthology series "American Horror Story" in 2012. The first four seasons of the show competed in the Best Limited Series category.
Without "Atlanta," FX is looking to make up ground with the rest of its comedy slate. "Better Things" and "What We Do In The Shadows" both have enough pockets of support to be dark horse choices in Series, Directing and Writing. They will either have strong Emmy tallies this year, or "Better Things" will continue to only get Pamela Adlon in Lead Actress in a Comedy.
Changes in Emmy rules mean that "American Horror Story" will have to submit their latest season, "Apocalypse," in Drama Series. It's unlikely the already fading show will be able to withstand the more competitive drama categories. However, Ryan Murphy's latest series, "Pose," looks to be FX's best bet in Drama Series.
Once again, the biggest opportunity for FX lies in the Limited Series field. "Fosse/Verdon" combines all the elements Emmy voters love: big movie stars playing showbiz legends. The show features standout recreations of famous dances and movies. The only questions that remains are how many nominations will "Fosse/Verdon" reap and will it be able to beat "Escape at Dannemora?"

This firm was referred to EGC by a bank that was interested in the banking relationship. EGC was able to work with management through various billing nuances to provide a line that was far larger and more flexible than its previous lender and make sure that the referring bank maintained its relationship.
This MCA continues EGC's active involvement in this growing space. Like EGC's other MCA clients, this company is owner operated with a strong track record and credit culture.
This client had financed with EGC about 10 years earlier. It had refinanced with a bank that was unable to keep up with its growth. When it had planned to acquire another staffing business, it turned to EGC to help with the acquisition.
This fast growing MCA had been self-financed since inception. As EGC has become a go-to lender in this space, it was already familiar with management. With EGC's line, the MCA expects to grow at a much greater pace and continues to invest in improved systems and underwriting.
A private equity firm, whom EGC had worked with previously, had purchased and reorganized a struggling nutraceutical business. We viewed this business as a "re-start" as both management and systems were completely new. Despite not having reliable information from the previous owners, EGC was able to work with the new management based on the prior relationship with the private equity firm.
This client was referred to us by an existing client. We originally provided two merchant cash advances. The client was able to pay off a small balance at their senior lender and then requested that EGC provide some spot factoring in time for the Chinese New Year.
This 50 year old business had been in workout for over a year with a money center bank. It had entered into an agreement with another asset based lender to refinance. When the field exam came up short on availability, they sought another lender. EGC was able to do this deal by 1) increasing the availability on a/r by extending to 120 days and by increasing the amount of the term loan on real estate.
EGC provided acquisition financing to an existing client. Our client was ready to double its size but needed our assistance to do so. This deal was further complicated by the seller wishing to retain some of the a/r and customers, but not all. EGC entered into an intercreditor with the seller as well as providing liquidity against the accounts receivable.
This company had never borrowed. They were always self-financed, but now had real opportunities to grow and were interviewing lenders. EGC was chosen because of the direct contact with senior management. The transition required a lot of hand-holding so ownership could get comfortable with another partying having an assignment of their accounts receivable.
This was a unique situation in that EGC provided both an a/r revolver and a merchant cash advance. Both were needed as this was part of a much larger acquisition financing. The buyer was about $1MM short of the purchase price and came to EGC knowing that we might be able to turn an "air ball" into a merchant cash advance. In this situation, EGC provided a $750,000 revolver and a $1,000,000 term loan.
This specialty finance company had been borrowing from the same lender for a decade. The lender was taken over by a turnaround firm due to bankruptcy. The turnaround firm reached out to dozens of replacement lenders. EGC was the only lender that could meet this client's needs at a competitive price. EGC was able to increase their line from the previous lender, increase their availability criteria, and decrease their interest costs. Moreover, this was done in three weeks meeting the turnaround manager's deadline.
This growing firm had been financing with a leading factor for several years. However, when it was awarded a significant contract with a large medical center, the factor was seeking a co-factor to help with the concentration. They called up EGC on a Tuesday. EGC was able to fund $3,000,000 48 hours later so that the client could meet payroll.
This specialty finance company has been a long time client of EGC's. They have continued to experience successful growth. In order to meet their needs of a larger line of credit, EGC partnered with a bank. The result was a doubling of their line of credit and a 30% lower cost of funds.
This staffing company had only factored in the past. In an effort to increase availability and decrease costs they reached out to EGC. The issue was that the company was owned by a foreign entity and US management were strictly salaried employees. EGC was able to provide a line of credit despite this hurdle.
EGC was contacted by another factor that had lost its own financing. In an effort to save the client, EGC took over the factoring until the old factor was able to regain its own financing.
This company is in the new and fast growing electronic cigarette industry. At the time, it was the only public company in that arena. It had regular commercial receivables but also a large internet sales presence. In order to give this company the most funding available, EGC advanced not only against the commercial receivables, but was also able to extend a $750,000 merchant cash advance payable over 18 months.
This company was brought to EGC by a former client that was serving as a consultant. Although it was well capitalized, it was not fully prepared for the rapid growth it was experiencing. Knowing that EGC could react quickly, the consultant reached out to EGC who provided a $1,000,000 line within a couple of days.
This third generation business was in its bank workout/special assets department. Having reached out to all the regional lenders, it could not find one that offered both a revolver and term loan with competitive pricing. Its consultant reached out to EGC and our pricing was similar to their existing rates. EGC was able to pay out the bank in full, and because of the strong personal guaranties and equipment appraisals, was able to provide an additional $250,000 of working capital at closing.
This manufacturer of robotics for the auto industry had a couple of lean years due to the industry slowdown. Its long time bank asked them to leave. In order to give them enough availability to both take out the bank in full and provide additional collateral, EGC provided liquidity on the A/R, Inventory and a term loan against fixed assets.
This was an existing client of EGC's. When the relationship started, the initial line of credit was $500,000. As the client grew, so did its line of credit. At each increase, the client analyzed whether or not to bring in equity. It was profitable and growing, but equity was expensive. At each increase, management determined that an EGC line was less expensive, and easier, than bring in a partner.
This importer of exercise equipment was in the middle of a turnaround. The private equity backed company needed more working capital and its existing bank was unwilling to increase its line any further. EGC set up a bifurcated line of credit. The bank had its collateral, and EGC had its own. The result was that the company got additional liquidity to bring in more product for the all important holiday season.
The principal was known to EGC from a prior relationship. He was the CEO of the $30MM revenue business that was under letter of intent to be sold to a foreign buyer. Most of the company's customers were located in the Far East, as that is where the most amusement parks were being built. Some of their receivables were paying slower than expected so they needed some working capital to bridge the gap until the sale went through. EGC made a spot purchase of A/R and provided $3.5 million in funding in 5 days. The sale went through about two months after all the receivables were paid.
This company manufactured snack foods. Although it was relatively new and small, an upcoming segment on a cooking show created both excitement and optimism regarding future orders. EGC did some spot purchasing of their invoices. As had been hoped, the TV segment led to greater public awareness and orders grew exponentially.
This family business had not had a borrowing relationship in years. The founding family had always supported it, however, after three years of losses, the family was getting frustrated. With a new business plan and CEO in place, it approached EGC. Despite the three years of losses, the collateral and balance sheet were acceptable.
This principal was funding his eighth startup. Each one was in a slightly different area of internet marketing. Most had been successful; one is now a well known billion dollar business. Each has been factored by EGC. EGC agreed to this business while it was still in the business plan stage. The principal knew that when EGC gave its word that it would finance another startup, it would come through.
This was an old time EGC client that had paid EGC off in 2006 with bank financing. The former client was given an opportunity to purchase the building adjacent to it if it could close in 30 days. Although it had a good relationship with its bank, and its financial performance was excellent, there was no way the bank would be able to provide the mortgage within 30 days. Even though EGC rarely does stand alone real estate deals, because of the long standing relationship, EGC was able to provide the loan, and the client was able to purchase the building at a bargain price.
This distributor of construction related products was referred to EGC by an existing client. Its long time bank had asked it to leave due to losses incurred in 2009. Although management had turned the company around, no banks were interested. The company was solicited by most of the asset based lenders in the Northeast but chose EGC because of its competitive rates, and creative formula for availability. Indeed, because so much of its inventory was pre-sold, EGC was able to treat most of it as if it were a "bill and hold" receivable, increasing the inventory availability.
This IT staffing business was growing but profits were constrained by paying its factor a high cost for funding. EGC paid off the factor and was able to increase the advance rate so that the company could further increase its sales. This company also had a line of credit with a bank so EGC had to enter into an intercreditor agreement that was mutually acceptable.
This company was a spin off. As such, it was considered too new for bank financing. Additionally, because the company was venture backed, there were no personal guaranties. By focusing on the previous company's performance, EGC was able to offer a line of credit to a virtual start up.
This was a returning client that had a new business. He was selling household products that were only to be sold during the winter season. Because of the short term nature, he was reluctant to enter into any long term financing. Instead, he chose a factoring option that gave him the liquidity to fulfill his purchase orders and not have any long term financing obligations.
This processor was getting a steady stream of commission income known as residuals. However, the company was expanding its product line and needed some working capital. They found out that although they had been in business for several years and had always been profitable, no bank would lend against residuals. Since EGC understands the credit card industry, we were able to monetize the residual stream using a term loan. This was able to create the liquidity for the company to expand its product line, increasing both sales and profitability.
This company came to EGC with a tax issue. It had never financed before and had recently fallen behind on its taxes. Because it was waiting on several hundred thousand of receivables, EGC suggested that it factor its receivables to get current on its taxes. The goal was to finance the receivables for a short period of time until the cash flow caught up. The company was self financing again in 6 months.
This third generation printer hired a turnaround consultant to get itself back to profitability. Among the action items he focused on was look to replace the high rate factor that the printer had turned to upon exiting its long time bank. EGC was able to offer more availability against the A/R and significantly reduce the cost of funding.
This finance company had been in business for two years. Because it was in the merchant cash advance business, no bank was interested in offering a line of credit. With EGC's experience in this industry, it was able to offer a line that was competitively priced and able to grow with the company.
This company is owned by private equity. When it did not meet its budget for the second straight year, its long time bank asked it to leave. The company was also consolidating three different manufacturing plants across the country so was going to continue experiencing losses. In order to pay off the bank in full, EGC was able to extend availability against inventory and a $1 million term loan against equipment.
This money manager had hired a large team and built out high end office space in anticipation of considerably increasing its assets under management. In the meantime, it found itself in a tight cash position. EGC was able to lend against future management fees so the fund could meet its present obligations and focus on investing and money raising.
This company was a turnaround that was purchased by an investor group. Management had yet to meet its goals and was not only asked to leave its bank, but was given a firm deadline. Although they were introduced to EGC with only two weeks to go before the deadline (and around the holiday season), EGC was able to repay the bank in full and explore ways of increasing availability, all in two weeks.
This third generation business was in an industry was out of favor and its bank would not increase its bank lines. When its main competitor went into bankruptcy, this company wanted to purchase many of the competitor's assets. The company knew it needed another financing source to accomplish this and through its accounting firm was referred to EGC. EGC repaid the existing bank and made additional loans to purchase inventory and equipment from the bankrupt company. Because of this adventurous purchase, the company will be the geographic dominant player in the industry. In order to support these purchases, which caused the client to go out of formula, the principals offered second mortgages on their homes.
This firm also had outgrown its existing bank line. EGC received this lead over the internet. The company was profitable, had retained earnings, but was growing too quickly, to get adequate bank financing. It was opening up locations in two other states. EGC started them with a $750,000 line but plans to increase that line when the other locations become operational.
EGC was introduced to this client two years previously by a former EGC client. At the time, the company chose to finance with a bank. The company was profitable and growing. However, due to a note payable due the former owner, the company was unable to increase its retained earnings. As the company grew, it required larger lines of credit, which it was unable to get from banks. EGC was able to finance the company and double its working capital.
This retailer of ski equipment was getting ready for its busy season. Although it was not expanding its locations, it was expecting its revenue to increase. It had a new private label product line that it needed to bring in from the Far East. Its existing bank lines were at their maximum and time was of the essence. Through our affiliate, Credit Cash LLC (www.credit-cash.com) we provided a term loan with a 6 month duration to track the heavy sales season.
This manufacturer was also introduced to EGC through its turnaround professional. Its restructuring was almost complete, but its original bank would not change its decision. Nor could it attract other traditional banks as the majority owner was inactive and would not sign personally. Additionally, the customer base had a large concentration and about 25% of sales were to foreign companies. On top of this, it was in a highly cyclical business and an economic rebound was not imminent. EGC was able to get comfortable with management, the customers, and the balance sheet and provide a larger line than it had previously.
This printer became known to EGC from its outside turnaround professional. EGC had worked with him on another client that was in bankruptcy and was able to emerge and prosper. The printer needed some help with reducing costs and improving cashflow. The turnaround consultant was confident in the company's prospects. Although it had both bank lines and a factoring relationship in the past, it looked to EGC when it required DIP financing.
This company was a start up, or more appropriately, a restart. The principal had liquidated his last company with all creditors being paid. He changed his business model to reduce overhead and was soliciting a new factoring relationship. It was originally going to go with another factoring firm, however, after over a month of negotiating, the factor declined to go forward. This left the company in a tight spot as they had made commitments based on the anticipated financing. They approached EGC with an urgent need. EGC was able to close the transaction in a week. Once the company gets its volume up to over $100,000 per month, EGC expects to offer it a receivable financing contract.
This company provides investigative services to the legal industry. Their invoices were large, and their customers were slow to pay. They were backed by a private equity firm that was known to EGC through another of its investments. Unable to put more money into the company, the private equity firm sought out EGC to help with a very uneven cash flow. The company now uses EGC on an as needed basis. They are under no long term obligation to factor invoices, thus they only do so when they have a need.
This client was also asked to leave from its long standing bank. It had losses in both 2008 and 2009 and was now left with a deficit net worth. Management had turned the company around, however, due to a large concentration; it was having a difficult time finding a new lender. EGC took some real estate as back up collateral and was able to offer a 50% concentration cap on its largest customer.
One partner wanted to buyout another in this successful chain of independently labeled gas stations. Although the company had a long track record of growth and profitability, banks would not finance the buyout. Through EGC's affiliate, Credit Cash LLC we were able to assist the partners with an 18 month term loan.
This company was also a return client. The company had two divisions, one retail, and the other wholesale. The retail side had borrowed several times from EGC's affiliate, Credit Cash LLC. As the wholesale business began to grow, its bank refused to increase its lines and the company decided to go with EGC. As it turned out, this holiday season has twice the orders as last year, making its financing decision a wise one, and its year, a very profitable one.
This company provides consulting services to the environmental testing industry. They were a client of EGC's for 3 years but left to go to a bank in 2007. Although the company was growing profitably, the bank would not increase its lines. With some big projects ahead, the company thought it best to switch from its current lender to EGC. They knew EGC would grow with them and despite paying a bit more, the result would be a far larger and more profitable company.
Through EGC's affiliate, Credit Cash LLLC we were able to help this young retailer continue its expansion plans. It had leases in several airports and needed additional funding to support its construction time table. We provided a 12 month term loan on a timely basis and were subordinated to the senior lender.
This IT staffing company had a tough 2008 with sales down over 30%. While right sizing the company in 2009, its bank asked it to find a new lender. EGC competed against 6 different non bank asset based lenders to win this relationship. Although most lenders were offering approximately similar availability and pricing, the client chose EGC because of its long standing reputation, flexibility and direct communications with senior management.
This manufacturer of video screens sold one if its larger divisions and the remaining company was too small for its current lender. When asked to leave, it accepted a proposal from another bank. When the new bank began to modify its terms, the company lost confidence in the bank's ability to close and sought an alternative lender. Although it only owed its existing lender $2 million, EGC was able to provide additional liquidity and even provide a term loan against real estate.
This IT staffing company was growing quickly. It also had plans to sell itself. It was looking for a flexible form of financing that would meet its working capital needs until the sale closed. The company had an absentee owner and had no assets other than its accounts receivable. EGC offered it a factoring contract with no minimums or long term requirement. It turned out that the sale was delayed and a 3 month relationship lasted far longer. Additionally, the principal was able to start another company without breaking its non-compete. This new company is also financing with EGC.

Bardarbunga (Central Iceland): Lava effusion continues at high rates and enlarges the lava field, now covering more than 84 square kilometers.
It has crossed the track Dyngjufjallaleið and stretched onto the older lava of Þorvaldshraun.
Lava is mainly flowing through a closed channel to the eastern edge of the lava field, about 15 km from the crater. Another tube system is transporting lava to the northern part.
Etna (Sicily, Italy): Explosions and ash emissions of moderate intensity continue from the Voragine crater.
During a visit of the front of the cooling lava flow of last paroxysm on the southern side of the New SE crater it was possible to see that the most advanced flow front is at 2130 m elevation in direction of M. Scavo.
Fogo (Cape Verde): The eruption seems to be coming to an end. There are no new reports of lava effusion or explosive activity at the vents since 8 January, when small strombolian explosions could still be observed.
Gas emission measurements show a clear decreasing trend as well, but it is still too early to declare the end of the eruption because the possibility of a new batch of magma rising from depth cannot be ruled out yet.
Kliuchevskoi (Kamchatka): Eruptive activity, strombolian explosions from the summit vent, has picked up during the past 1-2 days. A lava flow is now active on the southeastern flank and ash plumes have been reaching 28,000 ft (8.5 km) altitude. KVERT raised the volcano's alert level to orange.
Incandescent material from the explosive summit activity is ejected to several hundred meters above the crater. Relatively intense ash emissions have been causing ash fall in up to 30 km distance to the west of the volcano.
Chirpoi (Kurile Islands, Russia): A thermal anomaly remains visible on cloud-free satellite images over Snow, a volcano of Chirpoi. The Aviation Color Code remained at Yellow.
Chirinkotan (Northern Kuriles): Minor activity persists at the volcano. A thermal anomaly over Chirinkotan was detected in cloud-free satellite images on 30 December. Aviation Color Code remains at Yellow.
Slamet (Central Java): PVMBG reported that during 1 November-5 January white plumes rose at most 1.5 km above Slamet's crater. RSAM values fluctuated but decreased overall in December through 5 January.
Deformation and geochemical data showed no significant changes. The Alert Level was lowered to 2 (on a scale of 1-4) on 5 January. Residents and tourists were warned to not approach the crater within a radius of 2 km. (Smithsonian / USGS Weekly Volcanic Activity Report 31 December 2014-6 January 2015)
Tangkubanparahu (West Java): The volcano was placed on higher alert level (2 on a scale 1-4) on 31 Dec, as signs of volcanic unrest have recently been increasing (deformation, seismic activity).
An exclusion zone of 1.5 km radius around the crater is in place.
Hunga Tonga-Hunga Ha'apai (Tonga, Tonga Islands): The submarine eruption has apparently breached the surface. A steam and possibly ash plume was reported to have reached up to 30,000 ft (10 km) above sea level today and yesterday, New Zealand's VAAC Wellington reported, based on pilots' observations.
According to local news, the domestic Real Tonga airline cancelled some flights in the area. Unconfirmed reports mention ash fall on Ha'apai Island. An Air New Zealand flight bound to Tonga was diverted to Samoa.
Shishaldin (United States, Aleutian Islands): Seismicity at the volcano remains slightly elevated, but no signs of significant activity have been noted recently, only some steam emissions were observed occasionally. AVO maintains Aviation Color Code "Orange" and Volcano Alert Level "Watch".
Fuego (Guatemala): During the past days, explosive activity has been relatively intense at the volcano.
Strong strombolian-type explosions have been occurring at rates of 6-8 per hour, sometimes ejecting incandescent bombs to more than 1000 m above the crater and producing glowing avalanches. Some of these reached the vegetation and caused small fires.
Ash plumes rose to 1-1.5 km above the crater and drifted 10-15 km to the west and southwest.

Opinion by Robert Holmkvist.
Merchants of Beverage is an online service that aims to make buying and gifting luxury items easy. Products include wines, spirits and Champagne's, as well as hand-blown crystal stemware and professional barware. Each item has been handpicked and curated by a team of experts and sourced from a variety of international artisans. The service's new brand identity, which included monogram, logotype, stationery and packaging design, art direction and e-commerce website, and features photography from Doron Gild and illustration by Sharon Hwang, was managed by San Francisco based Manual.
Manual's brand identity direction exudes a style fitting of a service that wishes to establish itself as the destination for the discerning customer searching for sophisticated gifts or looking to create a home bar worthy of Don Draper. The monogram, constructed from glassware silhouettes, and its accompanying uppercase sans-serif wordmark, are well-built and suited to the curated nature of the service and catalogue. The font choice, Value from Colophon, has the right amount of idiosyncrasy whilst still feeling sophisticated, and given distinction by rotating the 'OF', allowing it to stack well on two lines and be more compact on one.
Where the brand identity really comes to life is in its different touch points. These could have easily been done unimaginatively or rigidly applied, however Manual have executed these with a flexibility evident in the use of patterns, separate monogram and wordmark, and to a high standard through packaging that features dyed uncoated boards and tissue paper, and stationery with a copper foil print finish over coated stock. Sharon Hwang's retro flavoured illustrations echo a mid-century style and introduce a warmth and personality, and reflect the artisanal nature of Merchants of Beverage's products.
The website feels current, appropriate and makes good use of photography beautifully shot in aspiring settings by Doron Gild. The choice of traditional furnishings and classic glassware harmonise well with tone of the identity and the service's intended customers. The muted colour palette of copper on a neutral backdrop of beige on-line holds all the elements together and works as great canvas to draw out the detail of the photography.
The monogram and wordmark might tread familiar ground but their execution, implementation and the use of illustrative and photographic detail alongside these lifts this identity well above the rest, appearing premium and very well-considered.

Rabindra Sandhya

Rabindra Sandhya 2002
A Celebration of Tagore's Creativity
Kresge Auditorium at Stanford, CA; June 2nd 2002, 3: 00 PM Exact
An Asha-Stanford Production
Second year of Rabindra Sandhya
One of the most magnificent and creative lives in the history of mankind, Rabindranath Tagore inspired and invoked new attributions to innumerous lives with his creation; the everlasting gifts of infinite joy. In his relentless pursuit towards finding an expression for his exuberant ecstasy, at his very existence on earth and the inner riches of the human soul, his literary and other achievements made him a legend in his lifetime.
This Nobel laureate poet was also a master musician, a world-class painter, a radical educationist, a conservationist, a freedom fighter and a social reformer. His vast treasury of poems that touched all the possible realms of human emotion and life made him universally acclaimed as an incomparable poetic genius. His literary creation included numerous essays, travelogues, letters, diaries, short stories, novels and dramas with contemporary socio-economic and political issues.
His involvement and experimentations with performing arts brought a new cultural revolution in Bengal at the dawn of twentieth century. He created an extraordinary new school of music, wrote various dramas with new forms and concepts and introduced several ravishing musicals that still charm this 21st century world. Tagore's creation is an everlasting resource for artists in the various fields of entertainment even today.
Tagore's creations were appreciated by contemporary geniuses all over the world; but unfortunately not much initiative had been taken to present this brilliant treasure to the greater world outside the limits of Bengali speaking sub domain. The present world of information revolution calls for a change of this scenario. Everyday we are encountering the riches and depths of various cultures and forms of entertainment hitherto unknown to us. Knowledge and the joy of adoption of diverse cultural portfolios are enriching our lives. Similarly the linguistic barrier needs to broken for worldwide appreciation of Tagore's creations; but translation of Tagore's works or presentation of his creative arts in a universal form, is an enormous and daunting task. It is really a job for an institution and a genuine result can be achieved only by a concerted and focused effort.
In Rabindra Sandhya 2002, we are taking a small step towards this very big goal. Your support and encouragement will definitely take it one step further.
Rabindra Sandhya 2002 Program
Rabindra Sandhya 2002 is a five-hour long program, conceived to offer a glimpse into the vast panorama of Tagore's creativity. Please look into the following Program detail, in order to decide the program of your interest.
Different Moods of Rabindrasangeet: Solo Presentation of Tagore's Music
Individual Musical Performance by talented and expert singers from the Bay area. Our artists will present a unique bouquet collected from the orchard of Tagore's music, portraying different categories, moods and forms.
Gahi Eksaathe (We Sing in Unison): A Chorus Presentation of Tagores Music
An assortment of popular Tagore Songs, which have captivated the hearts of thousands by their motivation and inspiration; and provided expressions to our budding emotions and consoled us when we were dejected. Gahi Eksathe is a revisit to those golden moments: We request the audience to join in the chorus for sharing the joy of Tagore's music.
Ritur Khela (Play of the Seasons): A Children's Performance
From his early child hood, Rabindranath possessed an association towards the nature and its elements. In his poems and lyrics sometimes the sudden rain clouds are like a lively boy playing in the fields, sometimes the spring blossoms peep like a shy girl. Children aged between 6 to 13 years will sing, dance and tell us how they play along, with the seasons in the Tagore world.
Naba Rabi Kirane (In the Rays of the Rising Sun): An Expression
Rabindranath (Incidentally " Rabi" means "The SUN" in Bengali) was a worshipper of the beauty of the rising sun. Throughout his life Tagore felt a strong affinity towards the daily drama of luminance piercing darkness; he cherished to himself as a part of the crescendo of this celestial symphony. It filled him with a profound sense of belonging to this universe and inspired him towards many of his creation. As a powerful fountain of clear water comes out from the dark, hard rocks beneath, the morning sun ushered the Muse of his poetry and lyrics to his world, rejuvenated his life, his mood, his creation; which was otherwise laden with immense responsibilities, hard work, worries and grief over the loss of his dear ones. Naba Rabi Kirane is a celebration of this spirit of ecstasy through his own poetry, music, and dance.

Agreements with SPs and SIs to integrate two-factor authentication into their offering
CRYPTOCard's SaaS authentication service CRYPTO-MAS has turned two factor authentication into a commodity offering.
The company has done this by making it easy for Service Providers (SPs) and Systems Integrators (SIs) to provide authentication to its customers using CRYPTO-MAS cloud-based authentication.
With this move, SPs or SIs can secure digital identities of their customers without having to invest in installing servers and daily management of the service.
CRYPTOCard CEO Neil Hollister said there is a strong need for hosted two-factor authentication.
"At less than the cost of a cup of coffee per-month per-user, the purchase price is so low its makes authentication a commodity and the purchase decision a no brainer," Hollister said.
CIOs and industry experts have expressed concerns about the need to adopt two-factor authentication as a standard means for authenticating digital identities across the cloud.
CRYPTOCard has entered agreements with many SPs and SIs to integrate its CRYPTO-MAS two-factor authentication into their offering to customers.
"The ability to integrate two-factor authentication into an overall networking solution makes CRYPTO-MAS easy for SPs and SIs to offer it and end-users to adopt it," Hollister said.

Choosing The Right Commercial Property Insurance
Before you can even think about what you should do after a storm hits, you have to make sure that you're prepared on the front end. Both property renters and property owners must have some form of property insurance. Depending on your business model and budget, you may consider different types of coverage.
- Replacement Value Coverage - This type of property insurance offers the most protection against property damages. While you will pay more each month, it will cover the replacement value of anything that is damaged in a storm, accident, or other catastrophes.
- Actual Cash Value Coverage - This type of insurance is better suited for companies whose primary assets can be easily replaced with used or off-brand alternatives. It will cost less than replacement value, but you'll want to speak with your insurance agent to make sure the savings justify a lower payout in the case of damage.
Regardless of what type of coverage you choose, when a storm damages your property, you'll want to work closely with your insurance agency to sort out the costs and repairs. Additionally, you'll want to work with a contracting agency that can vouch for you by offering commercial insurance claims assistance in Colorado or whatever state your property resides in.
Commercial Insurance Claims Assistance In Colorado
When damages occur to a commercial property, there are a lot of factors to consider. Is the damage severe enough that you won't be able to operate? How long will the repairs take? Do the property repairs require special materials that could change the cost or timeline? These are all factors that a reputable contractor can help you determine.
First Thing Is First…
You'll need to bring out both an insurance adjuster and a contractor that you trust. The two will both perform their own inspections to assess the damage. If you choose a contractor with experience in commercial insurance claims assistance in Colorado, they will be able to voice your concerns to your insurance company so that the entire scope of the damages are documented correctly. The right contractor can improve your chances of insurance assistance in the repair costs.
Navigating The Repair Process
After the inspections are complete, your chosen contractor will begin the repair process. They will walk you through the damage and the necessary steps for repair. Make sure that you communicate with your contractor so they can best accommodate your business needs during the repairs.
Settling A Commercial Insurance Claim
There are two key elements that can make or break your commercial storm damage repair experience: your insurance company and your contractor. Take your time when choosing both. Talk in depth with your insurance agent to ensure you have the right coverage for your business. When a storm hits, find a contractor with great reviews and experience with commercial insurance claims assistance in Colorado. If you do this, when you need storm damage repairs, your experience can be a breeze.
Contact Ethos General Contractors today for a free inspection if you've been hit by recent storms and think your property might need repairs.

W.T. Massey - How Jerusalem Was Won. Allenby's Campaign in Palestine
to a neighbourhood they had long inhabited. I was standing on Raspberry Hill, the battle headquarters ofXXIst Corps, when I heard a terrific report. Staff officers who were used to the visitations of aerialmarauders came out of their shelters and searched the pearly vault of the heavens for Fritz. No machinecould be found. Some one looking across the country towards Atawineh saw a huge mushroom-shapedcloud, and then we knew that one enormous dump at least contained no more projectiles to hold up anadvance. This ammunition store must have been eight miles away as the crow flies, but the noise of theexplosion was so violent that it was a considerable time before some officers could be brought to believean enemy plane had not laid an egg near us. The blowing up of that dump was a signal that the Turk wasoff.
The Lowlanders had another very strenuous day in the sand-dune belt. First of all they repulsed a strongcounter-attack from the direction of Askalon. Then the 155th Infantry Brigade went forward and,swinging to the right, drove the Turks off the rising ground north-west of Deir Sineid, the possession ofwhich would determine the question whether the Turk could hold on in this quarter sufficiently long toenable him to get any of his material away by his railway and road. The enemy put in a counter-attack ofgreat violence and forced the Scots back.
The 157th Brigade in the early evening attacked the ridge and gained the whole of their objectives byeight o'clock. There ensued some sanguinary struggles on this sandy ground during the night. The Turkswere determined to have possession of it and the Scots were willing to fight it out to a finish. The firstcounter-attack in the dark hours drove the Lowlanders off, but they were shortly afterwards back on thehills again. The Turks returned and pushed the Highland Light Infantry and Argyll and SutherlandHighlanders off a second time. A third attack was delivered with splendid vigour and the enemy leftmany dead, but they renewed their efforts to get the commanding ground and succeeded once more. Thedogged Scots, however, were not to be denied. They re-formed and swept up the heavy shifting sand, metthe Turk on the top with a clash and knocked him down the reverse slope. Soon afterwards there wasanother ding-dong struggle. The Turks, putting in all their available strength, for a fourth time got theupper hand, and the Lowlanders had to yield the ground, doing it slowly and reluctantly and with thedetermination to try again. They were Robert Bruces, all of them. It's the best that stays the longest. Aftera brief rest these heroic Scots once more swarmed up the ridge. Their cheers had the note of victory inthem, they drove their bayonets home with the haymakers' lift, and what was left of the Turks fledhelter-skelter down the hill towards Deir Sineid, broken, dismayed, beaten, and totally unable to makeanother effort. The H.L.I. Brigade's victory was bought at a price. The cost of that hill was heavy, but theTurks' tale of dead was far heavier than ours, and we had won and held the hills and consolidated them.The Turks then turned their faces to the north and the Scots hurried them on. The Imperial ServiceCavalry Brigade had also met with considerable resistance, but they worked up to and on the ridgeoverlooking Beit Hanun from the east and captured a 5.9. By evening these Indian horsemen were linkedup with the 4th Australian Light Horse Brigade on their right and the 52nd Division on their left, andpursued the enemy as far as Tumrah and Deir Sineid.
General Headquarters directed that two infantry divisions should advance to the line Julis-Hamameh insupport of mounted troops, and the 75th Division was accordingly ordered from its position east of Gazaup to Beit Hanun. On the 9th November the 52nd Division was again advancing. The 156th Brigade hadmoved forward from the Gaza trenches. One officer, five grooms, and two signallers mounted on secondhorses formed a little party to reconnoitre Askalon, and riding boldly into the ancient landing place of theCrusader armies captured the ruined town unaided. There are visible remains of its old strength, but thepower of Askalon has departed. It still stands looking over the blue Mediterranean as a sort of watch
