Stanley Weston (pictured in main image) brought joy to the hearts of many young boys by the creation of the G.I. Joe action figure in 1963, the rights to which he more or less gave away – selling them to the US toy manufacturer Hasbro for a mere $100,000 – and then went on to set up a company licensing and merchandising other figures. He used to scour army and navy surplus stores to get ideas about what equipment G. I. Joe (and the many spin-offs) should be carrying. An American veteran of the Korean War, he died in California at the age of 84 on 1 May.
The epithet 'distinguished' is often applied to anybody who simply has reached a certain age. But both Hugh Thomas and Alistair Horne were truly distinguished historians. The former's Spanish Civil War, published in 1961, set the direction for all future historians covering that conflict, while the latter's The Price of Glory: Verdun 1916, published in 1962, was a brilliant corrective to the hitherto Anglo-centric view of the Great War. Thomas was professor of history at the University of Reading during 1966-75. When he set about writing his Spanish Civil War he knew nothing of the Spanish language; but being banned by General Franco's dictatorship in Spain helped it gain huge success. He died on 7 May, aged 86. Alistair Horne, who wrote more than 20 books, died at the age of 91 on 25 May.
Quite a few footballers were taken by the Reaper this month
Mohamed Talbi, the Tunisian Islamic scholar who attempted to synthesize Islamic teaching with modern Western thought, died at the age of 95. His kind of balanced reasoning will be missed, particularly today. The award-winning Argentine writer Abelardo Castillo died at the age of 82, while at 83 the ground-breaking US journalist Anne Louise Morrissy Merick (pictured) died, from complications arising from dementia. Merick, who worked for ABC, successfully argued with the Pentagon to permit female reporters to go to the front lines with troops during the Vietnam War. The Mexican reporter Javier Valdez Cárdenas, who wrote widely and critically on organised crime and drug traffickers in his country, was shot and killed by unidentified gunmen. He was 50.

You may never have heard of Yevhen Hrytsyak, who died in May at the age of 90; but he should be remembered. He was a leader of the Norilsk uprising in 1953, in the Arctic Circle in Russia. At the Gorlag gulag, or forced labour camp, in May to August 1953 the 16,000 prisoners, mostly political victims of Stalin, went on strike for 69 days, in protest at the shooting by gulag guards of several prisoners. A grandson of Stalin, Alexander Burdonsky, died from cancer at the age of 75; he'd spent his life as a theatre and film director. Dai Zijin lived until 101 and was best known for being a Chinese pilot with the Flying Tigers in the Second World War. The Tigers were more formally known as the First American Volunteer Group of the Chinese Air Force; in his later life Dai coached motorcyclists. The 'Flying Finn' Timo Mäkinen (pictured), who became famous in the 1960s and 70s for his success in Minis in motor-rally driving, died at 79.
Shulamit Kishik-Cohen lived a fascinating life and one fraught with risk and danger but managed to live to 100. Born in Argentina, she migrated to Palestine as a child and grew up near Jerusalem. From her youth she acted as a covert agent of the Israeli national intelligence agency Mossad, she spied on Lebanon and Syria from 1947 until 1961, when she was arrested by the Lebanese authorities, tortured, and sentenced to death, but in 1967 was freed as part of a prisoner exchange after the Six Day War. An equally risk-filled life was lived by the appropriately named Vince Deadrick Snr., the American stuntman who died aged 84. Deadrick's career took in stints on Star Trek, Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade, and Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl. The Canadian-born male impersonator Diane Marian Torr, who was a visiting lecturer at the Glasgow School of Art, died of a brain tumour aged 68. Mary Tsoni, the Greek singer and actress, was just 30 when she committed suicide on 8 May. Gabe Proctor, the African-American long-distance runner, also took his own life at just 27, following a long battle with severe depression.
The Macedonian percussionist Zoran Madzirov, who invented the Bottlephone, was killed at the age of 49 in a traffic accident
It wouldn't be a regular round-up month for The Reaper without a mysterious Russian death and the demise of Vasily Mikhailovich Tarasyuk, a member of the extreme right-wing Liberal Democrat Party member of Russia's State Duma, at 68, perhaps qualifies for being called odd. Apparently he drowned in the Red Sea while on holiday in Israel. On the other hand, it's easier to be trapped upside down in the very salty Red Sea than one might imagine – particularly if a bout of heavy drinking has preceded the swim.

Eye twitching on loud sounds?
problems at all untill I went to the canteen for lunch. I sat down with a few friends and everytime a very loud sound comes along
I have never experience anything like this before. It all started after my 9 months tuning. After my implant been change to a new setting, I was switched back on and listening with the volume was set as 12 o'clock and when my audiologist ask how it was, and did a few noise to see if it sounded ok and if its too loud or not. I thought the sounds felt fine and it was comfortable to listen to, it wasn't too loud or wasn't too quiet. As we finished with the new mapping we went back in this room for another hearing test, everything sounded alright and things wasn't loud. I was happy to go home with that level.
When I got home everything was fine, I had no problems, nothing bothered me or anything and I didn't need to turn it down or turn it up, I was just happy on where the volume was set.
As I went to university the next day, I had no my eye would twitch a little. I had 4 hearing friends with me at the time, and every time my eye twitch, it looks like I were winking at them.
The twitching didn't bothered me at all at first, but after about half an hour when more louds sound jumps in the twitching continue to repeat and at every loud sounds it did it again and again. So, i thought i'll turn the implant down a little bit to see if it made any different; the slight twitching did stopped.
When I went back in lecture, I would turn my implant back to the normal level the white dot would be facing upwards to 12 0'clock. When I were at home, it would stay on the same level.
The next day at lunch time in university it happened again and had to turn it down.. It didn't just happend at uni, it happen when i went to clothes live show, with the loud music. I enjoyed it but had to turn it down a bit because of the slight twitching then when i left the building i would turn it up back to 12 0'clock.
Yesterday I went to the ear foundation social, becuase there were loads of people, it was loud I didn't turn it down, and when I was in the room where the food was, dyan who is my speech and language therispt was walking around and I could hear her heels clashing to the floor making a loud tap, my eye started to twitch on each step she made. I didn't turn it down as I thought it would only last a few minutes and I was ok with it.
When I went in the room where most people was, I heard group of children running around, screaming etc My twitching got worse so I turn it right down so I was happy.
I did tell dyan about it, and ask her if it was normal to have that? she thinks I should go back and get it sorted - she said she will mention it to carina. I did thought about e-mailing my audiologist last week, but I decided to give it a few days see if it the twitching decrease as it was still early days of just getting used to the new mapping.
I am happy with the mapping I got, just the twitching that tend to bother me in the nosey area. when I am at home or in a place where there not much noise I would want to turn it back to 12'oclock but if i was in a place where its noisey the volume is turned right down. - I wouldn't dare turn it up any louder cos either my brain would shake or i would get more twitching lol.
so, I'm just wondering what I should do, get it turn down just a little or leave it the way it is and just turn it down when i go to a noisey place. The twitch doesn't hurt at all, it just like someone tapping. I never had that problem before, so this is new.
Is this normal, and have anyone had the same problem? Would the twitching fade away if I leave it and become used to it?

You know all about Amanda's twitching, so we can empathize with you. My understanding is that each time you are remapped, it will be different because your brain is different. So even if you loved a particular map at one point, it could be different in the future.
Since you hadn't had twitching before, it would probably be a good idea to have a a retuneup and get things adjusted.
Let us know how it goes.

Ira Moore
Fifth child of Willard and Annie Moore
We are delighted to have found a picture of Ira Moore for his page.
Above: Ira Moore as a young missionary in 1912.
In the picture above is the Ira and Mamie Ferguson Moore family. They are: Back row, left to right: Louise, Reva, Lloyd,
Delon, Dale, Bernece, Lila, and Elda Moore.
In the front row, left to right: Mary Ellen (Mamie) Ferguson Moore and Ira Moore.
Picture made the year of Delon (Lonnie's) death, 1953.
Life Story of Ira Moore
Ira Moore was born 10 September 1889 in Freedom, Lincoln County, Wyoming to Willard Cook Moore and Annie Lydia Morgan. He
was the fifth child in a family of ten children. In 1891 he moved with his parents to Idaho where they homesteaded in the
Shelton area. In his young manhood, Ira worked to help maintain canal headgates with his father who was Watermaster of the
Great Feeder Canal Company for thirty-six years. The Great Feeder Canal is on the Snake River just below Heise.
In 1909, Ira was called on a mission for the LDS Church and served in the Western States Mission. He married Mary Ellen Ferguson
in the Logan Temple on 4 December 1912. They lived at Shelton where he farmed, and a family of eight children were born to
them-five girls and three boys.
Their children included: Mamie Louise Moore Malloy, born 5 September 1913; Elda Mae Moore Brown, born 7 December 1915; Bernece
Moore Otteson, born 13 June 1918; Lila Moore Heileson Whitmill, born 1 May 1920; Dale Willard Moore, born 15 July 1923; Reva
Moore Burton, born 19 September 1924; Rex Delon "Lonnie" Moore, born 25 June 1933; and Lloyd Jay Moore, born 10
May 1938. Unfortunately, their son Dale was born with mental and physical handicaps. The family took care of him with love
and compassion for fifty-nine years.
Ira and Mamie Moore experienced other hardships common for those days, but were successful in making a comfortable home for
themselves and their family. Besides their eight children, they also took in one of her nephews, Cecil Cleverly, who was orphaned
at the age of nine, and raised him until he was grown.
In 1945 the Moores moved to Idaho Falls where they lived the rest of their lives. On 17 March 1953 their son, Delon, was killed
in action on the battlefields of Korea. Later that year at a military ceremony in Pocatello, Ira Moore accepted posthumously
on Delon's behalf, the Silver Star Medal for bravery above and beyond the call of duty.
Ira loved the out-of-doors, and was never happier than when traveling through the mountains and enjoying the beauties of nature.
He loved to go camping, hunting, and fishing. Some of his happiest times were when he and Mamie and their married children
and their families met every summer at Fishing Bridge in Yellowstone Park to spend a few days together. Those vacations were
the highlight of his summers until his health became too fragile for him to make the trip.
Ira had a cheerful disposition and a wonderful sense of humor. He was so proud of his family and grandchildren and loved to
have them near, showing deep affection for each one.
Ira possessed many talents. In his younger years, he played the violin, led community singing, and participated in many plays
and monologues. He was a word artist, both on paper as well as when speaking. He was well-read in the Gospel and in world
events. He could converse intelligently with anyone on nearly any subject and enjoyed doing so. While in the Idaho Falls 19th
Ward, Ira was ordained a High Priest. A gifted teacher, he taught a Sunday School class as well as the High Priest Quorum
until he became too ill to continue.
About eight years before his death, Ira developed a heart ailment, and his health began to fail. During his last two or three
years, he spent many weeks in the hospital and was often confined to bed at home. His patient and loving wife, Mamie, cared
for him with the help of the rest of the family. He was taken to the hospital two weeks before his passing, where he died
on 27 October 1962.
Ira's wife, Mary Ellen (Mamie) Ferguson Moore survived him for nearly seven years; she passed away of a heart ailment on 24
August 1969. Mamie was the daughter of James Albert Ferguson and Mary Agnes Gneiting, and was born to them on 17 August 1892
in Logan, Utah, the third of eleven children. Mamie and Ira met as children when Mamie's family moved to the Shelton area
in 1903. They fell in love, she waited for him while he served his mission, and they married upon his return.
Ira Moore is buried in the Rose Hill Cemetery in Idaho Falls, Idaho.

Dan Carrier's movie news: Kubrick's 2001; Nae Pasaran – how Scottish workers defied the Chilean air force
02 November, 2018 — By Dan Carrier
2001: Kubrik's 1968 odyssey
• Stanley Kubrick's masterpiece 2001: A Space Odyssey is being shown to mark the film's 40th anniversary at the Science Museum on their giant IMAX screen. It runs from November 1-24. See www.sciencemuseum.org.uk
• To Glasgow, where a group of heroic, clued-up aeroplane engineers decided in 1974 that they would down tools and not work on a set of aircraft engines owned by the murderous General Pinochet regime in Chile.
Their story is now told in the wittily named film Nae Pasaran, by director Felipe Bustos Sierra. It tells the story today of how this group of Scottish pensioners discover the effect of them sticking to their principles had across the oceans. Bob Fulton was a Rolls-Royce engine inspector.
He had found out that a Chilean Air Force engine had arrived at his factory for servicing and repairs – but no way is he going to let it get to the work bench for a service as he knows all about the violence, murder and oppression the Pinochet regime are in the midst of.
He knows these jets have been bombing the people of Santiago, and he will not have their blood on his or his colleagues' hands. He knows he might be sacked. He knows this will cause trouble – but he takes a moral stance.
What an inspiring story, and an inspiring film: a lesson for us today, as we see the far right raise its ugly head around the world and ask ourselves: how can we be more Bob Fulton?

BRUSSELS, Oct 8 (Reuters) - Deutsche Telekom will in the coming weeks offer concessions to address EU antitrust concerns about its proposed purchase of Swedish peer Tele2's Dutch business, a person familiar with the matter said on Monday.
Last month, the European Commission set out its concerns about the deal, warning the companies that the combination of the third and fourth players in the Dutch market was likely to result in price increases. (Reporting by Foo Yun Chee; editing by Philip Blenkinsop)

Wednesday 5 July – Saturday 29 July 2017
Opening Preview | Tuesday 4 July, 5:30pm
Free to attend, all welcome
Artist talk | Wednesday 5 July, 12noon
'Big Sacred Technologies' seeks to consecrate objects and technologies that predict the future (or futures). All the while encompassing the sacredness of the aesthetic, affect and use of contemporary surveillances within technological and cyber networks.
An oracle has come, it offers a line to the outside, its message is confusing and opaque. Like the stars, it offers multiple interpretations, a guide more than a deity, a profit more than an angel.
Samuel Jackson is a Wellington based writer and artist with a Bachelor of Arts (Hons) in Media Studies from Victoria University (2015). Recent exhibitions include: 'Through various voids in the rocks', Meanwhile (online hypertext), Wellington (2017); 'Malware/s/lonely' (solo), 8 Egmont St, Wellington (2016); 'stay_on', online PFD with Jordana Bragg, Jesse Bowling and Callum Devlin (2015)

Interview with Santiago Gamboa
I am Santiago Gamboa. I'm in London in the bookstore Belgravia Books for Ventana Latina, and I am very happy to answer some questions and chat with you.
I believe that part of the strategy consists in writing about what I know, what I've experienced, what I understand from within. I have a base of experiences, out of which afterwards I construct fiction. Of course my books and characters are all fictional; if not, they would be autobiographies. And autobiographies are written by those who believe that their lives interest other people. That's not my case, I assure you. Thus based on my experience of what I have lived, I invent, adding in more certain causal explanations. As I said in the talk, my people push themselves to the limits, take more risks, and are crazier and more lost than I am. But I know a little bit about all that. And I write about it because it scares me, or because it attracts me, or because it fascinates me. Sometimes madness fascinates me, sometimes neglect fascinates me, sometimes the temptation of death fascinates me. All that fascinates me but I am afraid of it. So my characters are braver than I am.
In Necrópolis I wanted to go a little further and let the characters speak not just for three or four pages, but for forty. You have to justify the story that's happened to them, which was where my idea came from to invent a conference, a conference of people who are there to tell stories because they are biographers. And in the middle of this conference a situation transpires with a character who dies. There is a sort of 'plot', an element of the crime novel, but not at the same time as the stories told by each biographer. That allowed me to write a novel like those I enjoy, which are those which discuss life, the themes important for me in life.
Sometimes it frightens me to think that someone reads what I write.
Jerusalem was chosen as a metaphor, and also as a matter of aesthetics. The city Jerusalem is gorgeous; it has possibly the most beautiful historical centre that I know, and at the same time it is a city that serves me well as the metaphor of a city that has suffered, that has been martyred, that has been destroyed twice and come back reborn. In my novel, of course, I do not enter into the Israeli-Palestine conflict. For me Jerusalem is a metaphorical city, the metaphor of a martyr city. I absolutely do not discuss the Israeli-Palestine theme in my novel because for me it is the object of another type of reflection.
I just finished the first version of a novella in which the main character is a young writer, not of literature but of philology: that is, a researcher. I am a philologist. I studied philology. So it is the story of that philologist, his aunt, and a house. Those are the three elements I have. The story is called 'A house in Bogotá.'
There is a piece of very good advice that I always copy from a writer I admire a lot, named Paul Theroux. The advice is very simple. It says: 'Read a lot of books and then leave home' –that is, travel and reading, experience and memory. Novels are constructed with those elements, memory and experience. From there, what's more, someone has to sit down and apply himself. The young writer has to know that the novelist is in the working class of literature, that is, he has to write every day. He's not like the poet, who writes shorter things, no? It may be more difficult to do that, but it's easier to write bad poetry than a bad novel, because the novel has many pages. And someone has to sit down every day to do it.

Guess I should start with the "I'm okay" part first.
I am okay!!
I've been debating for a few weeks (while feeling really crappy most of that time) whether to write about health issues yet again. The debate continues in my mind, but I've decided to go ahead and write about what's been happening... mostly because this is the easiest way to express my feelings while also updating those who read my blog and pray for me.
So... health... um, yeah.. that thing.
Over the last year, I've been ignoring some symptoms that I probably should not have ignored. But when a person has had chronic illness, she gets tired of doctors blowing her off and attributing symptoms to stress or being mid-40's or whatever because they are busy and don't want to take the time to figure out what is going on.
Oh. The symptoms... pounding and racing heartbeat, pressure in the chest, sometimes accompanied by chest pain, always accompanied by shortness of breath, sometimes ache and/or pain down the arms, sometimes dizziness... yes, I know, all classic symptoms of a heart attack.
Don't ask why I waited so long to get it checked out. I just did. Not one of my best moves, but there it is.
Since the symptoms were becoming more frequent... and more intense... I finally said something to my doctor when I went for my physical in June. Believe me, it got his attention!
He set me up with the Arrythmia Clinic here in town, and a handy little device called a Heart Card which is extremely cool technology.
A patient experiencing "cardiac events" will carry this Heart Card for up to one month. It's the size of a credit card. Carried in your pocket or purse. When I get these events, I place the Heart Card against my skin in the center of my chest and push the "record" button.
BEEP... BEEP... BEEEP... BEEEEEEP... yep, it was kinda loud for the 30 seconds that it recorded. And yes, it was a little, tiny EKG machine that I carried in my pocket. Cool technology!
The Heart Card holds up to 3 event recordings. When you've got a couple, then you call into the Arrythmia Clinic... they push a few buttons to connect the phone with their computer... and I push the "send" button on the Heart Card while holding the phone to the card.
Beepbeepbeepbeepbeepbeepbeep!!! right back into their computer, where they can tell me immediately what's been happening. Waaaaaay cool technology!
The upshot is that I carryed that Heart Card around for about 18 days and got some good recordings... which show that I've got some atrial tachycardia going on. (and that there is a heart in there... I am not the heartless wretch that some might believe!)
From what I've been able to research about atrial tachycardia, that means that from what should be a simple resting heart rate of 60-80 beats per minute, the heart rate shoots up for no good reason... up above 100... and mine shoots up frequently into the range of 145-170 beats per minute. Usually when doing something very simple like putting on my makeup before work... which is not a stressful thing to do!
The events are not horrible, but they are unpleasant and leave me fatigued or exhausted, depending on how high my heart rate goes.
What does all this mean for me?
The obvious is that this means we have to find out what is causing these atrial tachycardia events. In the research I've done so far, one of the major culprits is Mitral Valve Prolapse. (MVP - normally a fairly benign condition that many folk have... the mitral valve in the heart is not functioning exactly as it should, but usually does not cause problems ever)
Yep, we've known for many years that I have MVP. When it was diagnosed years ago, they told me that I could either act like a cardiac patient or I could treat it like a nuisance and get on with enjoying life. I decided to go with the nuisance option. Cut back on caffeine, take antibiotics prior to dental appointments, and get on with enjoying my life.
If the mitral valve is the source of the atrial tachycardia, then it needs to be managed. What I've found so far is that there are about 4 treatment options.
1. Medication
2. Mitral valve repair
3. Mitral valve replacement
4. Pacemaker
Since I've only just turned in the Heart Card yesterday, and my follow up doctor appointment is set for next Wednesday, I don't know what the actual cause is. But I do suspect the mitral valve as the obvious culprit.
There are several potential next steps in determining the cause of the atrial tachycardia. Most likely scenario is an Echocardiogram... an ultrasound of the heart. Had one of those years ago. It was cool to watch my own heart beating on the TV screen in the exam room.
At this point, we wait until Wednesday to find out what the next step will be. I get these events too frequently for them to be ignored completely.
All medical jargon and clinical attitude aside, while I am concerned about my heart... I am not afraid right now. I think that it's because I'm not looking very far into the future and scaring myself with the "what if's".
Mostly because I'm leaning heavily on my Heavenly Father for today's needs only and not looking with fear at tomorrow's unknown.
I've been told by medical professionals that these events are not heart attacks and I trust their knowledge.
I've been told by my Heavenly Father that I can lean on him today and trust him for tomorrow's needs.
I like that plan.
...may there be mercy and peace as we wait.

Gladiator is absolutely full of features to make your game session go a long way. Look out for the Wild Coin symbol that substitutes for any other in the game (except the scatter) to form a winning combination. Players win if two or more Scatter Eagle symbols appear anywhere on the reels, while three or more Scatters trigger the fantastic bonus feature of Gladiator – no less than one hundred free spins!
Gladiator also comes with an interesting feature that is not found in all Microgaming slot games – the Mixed Pay winning option. Essentially this means that when Maiden symbols and Gladiator symbols appear together on a pay line, they create a winning combination that could go a long way in increasing your bankroll significantly.
With its excellent theme, increased number of pay lines and superb features, Gladiator is an excellent addition to Microgaming's arsenal of games.

Gracie -
The name given to the still. A 500 litre hybrid still which can be used as both a pot still and a column still.
Pot distilling is the traditional method and how gin has always been made, where all botanicals are macerated in the pot and then boiled.
Column stills are a newer invention; Gracie's column has 6 plates which purify the alcohol meaning the still can make pure, smooth vodkas.
In short, Gracie has the best of both worlds.
The Botanicals are hand-
When cooled back down to a liquid it begins to come out the other end of the still as gin.
You can enjoy a bottle of Poetic License spirit knowing it was crafted with care and commitment by hand.
Tasting Note
It is a beautifully sweet gin, creamy in texture and in taste, with a strong fruity nose as well as more typical gin notes of juniper, coriander and orris root. For added strawberries and creaminess, te gin was distilled as well as infused with the botanicals which also give its deep red colour that tints to a blushing pink when mixed with tonic.
It really is a treat for the tastebuds!
Serving Suggestion
Pour over large chunks of ice, serve with Prosecco and garnish with a slice of strawberry

SandacI posted photo's of 2770113-003 on the thread below.<http://china-mint.info/forum/index.php?topic=3345.msg33504#msg33504> in Feb.Could post more if required. Purchased on ebay and did report once I got affirmation from the forum. I recently saw on NGC that it had been DELETED. Not knowing what that meant I contacted to inquire. The response was send a photo which I did. They confirmed FAKE..I inquired as to clues, from my novice eye. it is hard to tell the real from? NGC wouldn't reveal any clues, saying they have secret (somethings) as clues. But wouldn't reveal as they are secret. Told me to look at slabs of authentic and compare..I have and other then shaking( the fake rattles ) the slab there's not much difference.Harder to tell slab counterfeit then the coin.Has anyone broken a FAKE slab open yet??Love to by don't want to ruin it's future FAKE collector value.
I went back to your original posts that you've provided a link to. I think you have a case of bait-and-switch. The original fuzzy photo looks close enough, but the one you received is definitely not the one advertised. I place three photo together, the left one is the advertised photo, the center one is what you received, and the right one is the NGC file photo for 2770113-003. The left and right ones are close enough, but the center one is definitely a different design. See the difference in the pattern of the floral ring. Furthurmore, the fake coin has a smaller diameter than the real coin. This is why it rattle in the NGC holder as you've reported. Does this means the forger does not have access to different size of inserts, so they use the same insert as in the original holder? Not only does a forger has to fake the slab, label, NGC hologram, they also have to have a wide range of inserts to hold different size coin, but that's too much work so given a limited selection of insert, they can only forge just few size of coins.
I recently purchased a 1987 Mazu coin on ebay. The seller made no mention that it was an NGC graded coin. The picture of the coin did not show the NGC holder. To my surprise, when I got the coin in the mail, it was NGC graded PF 69 deep cameo. It is in slab -206. Has a hologram on it and looks completely real. The day after I purchased the coin, ebay notified me the auction had been cancelled, but at that point I had already paid. The seller according to ebay was in British Columbia, but the coin itself came from China. The address the coin was shipped from was as follows...yehonglianfloor2,building1,no.8 changting roaddaxin industrial parkSuzhou JiangsuChina 215151The coin came with a note saying the reason the NGC label appeared faint was because the seller had owned it for over 10 years. Another odd note...on the package the seller declared this package as containing a necklace worth just 15$.The coin has all of the "fake" characteristics as displayed in the photos in the earlier thread. I looked on NGC website and compared it to the original and can see obvious differences...I would have done this comparison earlier if I had known my purhcase was a graded coin, but the seller did not mention it was graded, and the picture was very blurry. Wish I would have read all of these comments before I bought it. Hope my information helps you all in your cause. -Steve

TALLAHASSEE — Gov. Jeb Bush and the Florida Cabinet approved two insurance rules on Tuesday, one that could double the discounts homeowners get on their insurance premiums for making their residences more hurricane-safe and another that finalizes state-funded property insurance for businesses.
Under the new rule, insurers will now be required to give homeowners a break on their insurance premiums that will double what most now provide.
In the past, the Office of Insurance Regulation offered a range of premium discounts when owners upgrade their homes by securing roofs to walls or buying hurricane shutters, for example. A separate rule now forces insurers to specify the discount for each type of home improvement.
"The whole focus of this is to make this more consumer-friendly," Bush said.
The board also finalized a rule that will allow business owners to purchase property insurance from the state rather than private insurers, mirroring homeowner policies written by Citizens Property Insurance Corp.
The Florida Property & Casualty Joint Underwriting Association's first client is an aviation firm in Naples, said Dan Sumner, the JUA's interim executive director.
The Cabinet formed the JUA to help businesses that have been unable to buy coverage.
In all, 343 insurance agents are participating in the commercial program and the carrier has issued 521 price quotes, mostly to coastal businesses.
Those companies must seek coverage from private insurers before the state-run company will cover them.
The average value of the coverage being sought is $344,000, Insurance Commissioner Kevin McCarty told Bush and the Cabinet, and 44 percent of those seeking insurance are less than a mile from the coast.

Memorial Day is a weird time of year for me. I have torrents of mixed emotions about West Point, the military, and combat. The one thing I do not have mixed emotions about is my love for all of the warriors who refused to go gentle into that good night. That love extends to the remarkably strong families and friends of those who stood tall in the face of horror.
I can't explain how proud I am to have served with so many men and women better than myself. I'll always have mixed emotions about leaving the military and hanging up my weapons. However, I'm humbled to be involved with www.huddl.org providing a safe place for our veterans and their families in dealing with the effects of trauma.
With a heavy heart, on behalf of the huddl community, I'd like to say thank you to all of our veterans. You are always in my heart and you will always be family.

There has been a crazy evolution in the trends of mobile phones. Nevertheless we talk about celebrities or ordinary people, everybody is mad about their phones. If talking about me, I am very mad about my smart phone, I pamper it like a baby and it's my 'Jigar Da Tukda'. Beyond that, I am very much mad for having cute stylish phone accessories so I gave my phone, its own personalized cover, sexy pink stylus, delicate ear plugs and a sassy charger.

|Chapter 4. The Teaching Process
Discussion Method
The discussion method modifies the pure lecture form by using lecture and then discussion to actively integrate the student into the learning process. In the discussion method, the instructor provides a short lecture, no more than 20 minutes in length, which gives basic knowledge to the students. This short lecture is followed by instructor-student and student-student discussion.
This method relies on discussion and the exchange of ideas. Everyone has the opportunity to comment, listen, think, and participate. By being actively engaged in discussing the lecture, students improve their recall and ability to use the information in the future.
It is important for the instructor to play the part of guide, keeping the discussion focused on the subject matter. That may mean the instructor needs to initiate leading questions, referee if the discussions cause conflict, ensure that all students participate, and at the end summarize what has been learned.
Tying the discussion method into the lecture method not only provides active student participation, it also allows students to develop higher order thinking skills (HOTS). The give and take of the discussion method also helps students learn to evaluate ideas, concepts, and principles. When using this method, instructors should keep their own discussion to a minimum since the goal is student participation.
Instructors can also use another form of discussion, the guided discussion method, to ensure the student has correctly received and interpreted subject information.
Guided Discussion Method
The guided discussion method relies on student possession of a level of knowledge about the topic to be discussed, either through reading prior to class or a short lecture to set up the topic to be discussed. This training method employs instructor-guided discussion with the instructor maintaining control of the discussion. It can be used during classroom periods and preflight and postflight briefings. The discussions reflect whatever level of knowledge and experience the students have gained.
The goal of guided discussions is to draw out what the students know. The instructor should remember that the more intense the discussion and the greater the participation, the more effective the learning. All members of the group should follow the discussion. The instructor should treat everyone impartially, encourage questions, exercise patience and tact, and comment on all responses. Sarcasm and/or ridicule should never be used, since they inhibit the spontaneity of the participants. In a guided discussion, the instructor guides the discussion with the goal of reinforcing a learning objective related to the lesson. The instructor acts as a facilitator to encourage discussion between students.
Use of Questions in a Guided Discussion
In the guided discussion, learning is achieved through the skillful use of questions. Questions can be categorized by function and by characteristics. Understanding these distinctions helps the instructor become a more skilled user of questions.
The instructor often uses a question to open up an area for discussion. This is the lead-off question and its purpose is to get the discussion started. After the discussion develops, the instructor may ask a follow-up question to guide the discussion. The reasons for using a follow-up question may vary. The instructor may want a student to explain something more thoroughly, or may need to bring the discussion back to a point from which it has strayed.
In terms of characteristics, questions can be identified as overhead, rhetorical, direct, reverse, and relay. The overhead question is directed to the entire group to stimulate thought and response from each group member. The instructor may use an overhead question to pose the lead-off question. The rhetorical question is similar in nature, because it also spurs group thought. However, the instructor provides the answer to the rhetorical question. Consequently, it is more commonly used in lecturing than in guided discussion.
The instructor who wants to phrase a question for follow-up purposes may choose the overhead type. If, however, a response is desired from a specific individual, a direct question may be asked of that student. A reverse question is a question asked by a learner and the instructor returns the question to the same learner for response. A relay question is asked by a learner and the instructor requests another student to respond.
Questions are so much a part of teaching that they are often taken for granted. Effective use of questions may result in more student learning than any other single technique used by instructors. Instructors should avoid questions that can be answered by short factual statements or yes or no responses and ask open-ended questions that are thought provoking and require more mental activity. Since most aviation training is at the understanding level of learning or higher, questions should require students to grasp concepts, explain similarities and differences, and to infer cause-and-effect relationships.

Sorry I've been flaky *again*. I've been going through a pretty lengthy depressive episode, where basically nothing got accomplished and I didn't really give a crap if it did. That's the thing with depression--it makes you not care. All you can do is sit and be sad and try to dig out of it.
So now that that's over (for the time being), I'm gonna start changing a few things around with the blogging schedule to try for consistency. I want to keep up with the MANic Monday posts because they're just fun for me. Wednesdays will still be reserved for reviews (books, movies, games, you know, more fun stuff), and Fridays...well, Fridays are up in the air. I'm kinda debating sharing my SF novel. Free reading! Yay! And maybe some excerpts from other stuff. Not just mine, but anyone who wants to submit a chapter or poem or excerpt or whatever.
I'd also like to post more guest blogs. Writing or reading-related, but I'm thinking of pulling a Bloggess and talking about some mental health related issues as well, but without as many awesome pictures or taxidermy stories. So...writing-, reading-, mental health-related guest blogs. I think we can be honest about all that, right? After all, creative types are more likely to have a mental illness, so there ya go.
If you'd like to submit for a guest blog or Free Excerpt Friday, then shoot me an email to c (dot) peace (at) live (dot) com. I'll also post it to the sidebar for easy reference.

The issuing of collateralized loan obligations (CLO) by the major banks have been considers as the major cause of the financial crisis.
A number of financial operations undertaken by various banking institutions between the periods of 2007/2008 have been associated with the financial crisis that occurred then.
According to Becker and Guill (2009) collateralized loan obligations is made up different high risk commercial risk loans that have varying credit risks and are available for the sale to potential investors. As Longstaff and Rajan (2008) indicates, the high credit risk of these loans explains their high possibility in causing financial crisis in case of any default in payment. The current paper looks at the nature of the collateralized loan obligations and the reasons for the recent growth in the CLO market. A critical analysis of the role played by the CLO in the 2007/2008 financial crisis is also provided to justify the effectiveness of the regulatory approaches put in place to prevent such crisis from future reoccurrence.
The Nature of CLOs
Collateralized loan obligations are structured financial instruments that consist of a number of commercial loans grouped together. The loans are divided into different slices or tranches to reflect varying levels of seniority that match different reward and risk profile. The different slices are issued to investors and offer a potential for higher returns in case payments are made. However, the underlying loans also assume higher risks to the investors in case of default in payment. According to Yan (2013) CLO are issued by a company to acquire loans for purchase of certain assets. The loans acquired from different investors are pooled together with an objective of getting greater benefits capable for repaying the loans. As Longstaff (2010) indicated, the investor who purchases a higher risk CLO is likely to get higher returns and the reverse holds. Nevertheless, the security that backs the tranches offered to the investors is the major determined for the kind of CLO slice to purchase. Analysis of the risk level of the CLO and the security offered in case of default in payment is therefore necessary prior to making purchases.
The Role Played by CLO in the 2007/2008 Financial Crisis
The financial crisis that occurred between the period of 2007 and 2008 was considered as the worst financial crisis ever after the great depression that occurred in the 1930s. According to Diamond (2014) this crisis was characterized with high cases of default in payment of loans that was a big blow to the housing market in a number of economies. It is reported that the crisis threatened the fall out of various large financial institutions and stock markets across the world. Decline in consumer wealth, increasing cases of unemployment as well as significant failures in business were also reported during this period. Sweet & Maxwell (2014) posited that the major trigger of the crisis was the encouraging home ownership policies that convinced consumers into acquiring loans and mortgages. A number of banking institutions therefore focussed on the sale of debts securities with an objective of availing mortgages to the consumers. Greater benefits were attained in the period when the housing market was buoyant. The decline and the instability of the housing market that was observed resulted into the crisis that did not only have adverse effects on the banking institutions but also on the investors.
It is reported that both mortgage backed securities and collateralized loan obligations contributed toward the financial crisis. However, Pauley and Kroszner (2012) have argued that the CLO had a significant role in the financial crisis that was reported. The major banking institutions in the USA and the UK mainly issued the CLO to the investors in their need to satisfy the housing needs of the consumers with the loan acquired. The division of the CLO offered into different slices presented different risk levels to the investors involved in the purchase of the securities. While the banking institutions enjoyed some benefits initially, permanent profitability was not attained. The failure by the consumers to repay their mortgages greatly affected the housing prices causing the collateral values to reduce. This increase the losses made by both the banking institutions and the investors following the increasing default in payment that was observed. The double losses resulted into billions of dollars being lost leading to the economic recession that was reported. Issuing of collateralized loan obligations therefore caused the financial crisis reported in the period of 2007/2008.
Subsequent Changes in Regulation put in Place for Future Control of the Crisis
The disadvantages that are brought about by any financial crisis have led to a number of policies being set in place for its control. It is reported that the main cause for the 2007/2008 financial crisis was the issuing of debts by various financial institutions hence the policies set in place to prevent such crisis from reoccurring focussed on addressing the issues of debt issuing by financial institutions. The policies put in place by the UK and the USA governments focussed on controlling the issuance of the debts by the banks to the investors to prevent the losses that may be incurred in case of failure of loan repayment. In fact, it is reported that only certain banking institutions are allowed to offer the CLO and this is based on their financial position. The approach is set to ensure that only those capable of making repayments get involved in the debt issuance schemes.
A policy has also been set in place that control debt retention. The European retention policy dictates that the banking institutions issuing CLO retains certain part of the loan. This approach was put in place to ensure that the bankers have certain amount of capital for loan repayment in case they make losses from their investment scheme. This policy is therefore capable of assisting the baking institutions manage their financial activities while ensuring they repay the loans offered by the investors.
The Dodd Frank Act was also put in place to control the ability of the banking institutions in taking responsibility for any future value of the debt issued. This act requires that the issuer of security retains up to 5% of the economic risk. As Pauley and Kroszner (2012) points out when the banking institutions owns some part of the debt then they are likely to ensure that it is fairly priced in the future preventing the possibility of incurring losses due to the unfair pricing of the debts. This does not only protect the investors from making losses but also reduces the possibility of economic recession that may arise following the under valuation of the debts.
Reasons for the Recent Growth in CLO Market
Despite the significant contribution that Collateralized loan obligation had on financial crisis, recent development has seen rapid increase in the growth of CLO markets. In fact, it is reported that during the month of March in the year 2014, more than $ 10 billion worth of CLO loans had been issued. This value was higher in comparison with the amount issued in the previous years. The amount has since been increasing with more than $ 12 billion being reported in the month of May (Diamond, 2014). As Fest (2014) points out, the year 2014 saw a steady increase in the value of the CLO loans being issued to investors. This indicates the rapid growth that has since been observed in this market. The causative reasons for the rapid expansion of this market are advanced below.
According to Pinto (2010) the higher yields that can be attained from the CLO justifies their expansion in the recent past. It is observed that both the issuer and the investors are likely to benefits from any CLO issued if the economic position of the market is to be maintained as at the time of issuing. Diamond (2014) also posited that the current yield that can be currently be acquired from CLO loans is 11 times more than the value that can be attained from the issuing of corporate bonds. This is due to the higher rates that are offered with the CLO loans in comparison with the others available in the market. As Juliano and Wilches (2013) posited, investors have, in the recent past, avoided CLO loans due to the losses they made during the 2007/2008 financial crisis. As such, the yield rate of the CLO has significantly grown to more than 2% of the value that can be attained from the other bank loans. The possibility of attaining higher yield from the CLO loans by both the parties involved justifys the rapid expansion of the CLO market that is currently reported.
Fender and Scheicher (2009) have also argued that the risk involved in the CLO loans are slightly lower than the other loans offered by the banking institutions. In his analysis, he attained that the default rates for CLO loans are lower that the default rates for corporate bonds. As such, investors are attracted more to invest in the CLO laws than the corporate bonds. It is reported that the number of times that the CLO loans have been defaulted is a quarter the number of defaults of the corporate bonds (Festa, Walker & Warbey, 2012). The fact that default cases are lower in the CLO loans makes it less risky than the other loans offered by the banks. Majority of investors are likely to settle on a debt that is less risky hence the expansion of the CLO market that is currently observed.
Opinion: Current Environmental Difference from the 2005/2006 Environment and the sufficiency of Changes in Preventing Crisis Reoccurrence
While the regulatory changes following the financial crisis have made progress towards avoiding the prevention of the financial crisis from reoccurring, they have been focused only on the original cause of that crisis. This is at the expense of several other potential causes of another crisis. The major cause of the 2007/2008 financial crisis was the increasing demands for housing units that led to a number of banking institutions providing mortgages through issuing of debts to various investors. When the interest rates on housing units rose, default in payment by the households was observed and that led to the banks defaulting to repay the debts issued from the investors leading to the financial crisis. It is true that the policy established thereafter ensured that a financial crisis resulting from the same problem does not reoccur. These policies range from the limiting of banks that can offer CLO through the European retention policy to the Dodd Franck act and redefine the issuance of Collateral Loan Obligations. Actually, the practical effect of the policy changes was seen in 2008 when nations were recovering from the crisis and the housing boom was put under control. Nevertheless, there remain a myriad of regulatory gaps to be fulfilled in a bid to effectively prevent a future crisis. Actually, the limitation of the problem as resulting solely from defaulted loans is myopic and may deter the comprehensive addressing of the underlying financial problems. Scholars, therefore need to interrogate the possible causes of a financial crisis in detail and thus create a wide range of policies addressing all the findings.
On the question of environmental differences between the periods of 2005/2006, it is evident that a wide difference exists. Economies have currently grown to stability with household status increment observable through increase income per capita as well as purchase power parity among the world populations. Another characteristic of the current environment is that of comprehensive regulatory control that ensures that the issuance and repayment of loans is handled in a manner that greatly reduce default rates and thus preventing a record defaulting of loans from recurring. Important to note is the fact reported by the international monetary Fund (IMF) that economic growth is shifting from the developed world to the emerging economies and the developing world. Reports indicate that the developed economies are in a secular stagnation. This implies that if by chance a financial crisis overwhelms the policies currently in position and originates from the developed world, then it will have a smaller impact on the emerging economies compared to the 2007 crisis.

Tottenham fans react to their defeat against Watford
188bet Tottenham crashed to a 2-1 defeat against Watford today.The Londoners would have expected to make it four wins out of four today but Javi Gracia's men came from behind to secure a spectacular win.An own goal from Doucoure gave Spurs the lead early on in the second half but Deeney and Cathcart scored late on to seal the three points for the home side.
Jose Holebas created both goals for the home side.Spurs dominated the first half and but they failed to score. Dele Alli 188bet should have put the visitors ahead on the 13th minute.Pochettino will know that his side could have won today and he will be hoping for a reaction in the next game.
The away side 188bet came into this game on the back of a win at Old Trafford and they were favorites to win. Despite all the confidence and momentum, Spurs failed to grind out a result.Watford's sheer determination to win made a massive difference in the game.Here is how the Spurs fans reacted to the loss on Twitter.

November Wrap-Up
We finished our Chapter Book Read Aloud - The Wind in the Willows. We had a lot of fun giggling at silly Toad and his crazy adventures, but also discussed what it means to be Smug or Conceited.
The OK Google App definitely came in handy as we read together, especially at the end when (spoiler alert) the Weasels, Stoats and Ferrets took over Toad Hall and the friends had to win it back. We needed to know what those Wild Wood Animals looked like in real life, because we had no prior knowledge or schema about them, before we could start making mental images of the battle scene. *If anyone has a DVD or VHS copy of The Wind in the Willows (or even another in the series, like Willows in Winter?!) we'd love to borrow it for a class viewing :D
Next up for a chapter book read aloud - James and the Giant Peach; another fictional story full of animal adventures (and we go to see the play at Young People's Theatre this upcoming month!)
Daily Five Centres are running smoothly and we've begun Guided Reading at the Teacher's Table. As students rotate, I call small groups to come and read with me – sometimes to focus on reading above their level, sometimes to read just right books to focus on comprehension, but this time we're focusing on fluency in reading with a Reader's Theatre piece. Our four groups are reading: Little Red Riding Hood, The Bremen Town Musicians, Little Red Hen and Jack and the Beanstalk – ask your son or daughter what role they play!
We've been meeting some of the Trait Mates (the six writing traits) during Writer's Workshop over the past few weeks and so far we've met:
Just like as an artist paints pictures with paint, a writer paints pictures with words. Willy uses colors like red, blue and green, but he also uses chartreuse, and crimson, and cerulean. In the same way, writers use plain words and fancy words. Willy Word Choice reminds writers that they must use just the right words to tell a story and paint a picture in the reader's mind.
Just as clues are important to a detective, details are important to a writer. The trait of Ideas is about on generating details on a topic. Donna Details encourages writers to choose topics that they know and care about, and to add rich details that will be interesting to a reader. And just like a detective is always digging deeper for important clues, a writer must "dig deeper" to elaborate and extend the details they write.
We've been talking about our science theme - seasons and snow - and doing lots of Willy and Donna writing. After reading "All You need For A Snowman" students wrote their own Willy sentences in their writers journal, using the list of brainstormed words on our Smart Board as well as the sentence closer "is all you need for a snowman". Some of our sentences were: Three ginormous snowballs; Two shiny sparkly rocks; A nice crunchy and juicy orange carrot". Then, they chose their best one and 'published' it on chart paper - we cut out our sentences and combined them all for display on our Writing Board.
Later that week we read The Snowy Day and talked about all the `Willy Words` that Ezra Jack Keats used in her writing, as well as all the `Donna Details`. We brainstormed a list of `snowy`words, I modelled writing for the students, we co-created our success criteria - and then they were off! They wrote their own short pieces about a Snowy Day.
ote, I saw Lori Jamison, developer of the Trait Mates, speak at the Reading for the Love of It conference last year - she's amazing!).
*Going back to Parent Teacher Interviews earlier this month, I showed many of you the Developmental Reading Assessment (DRA) levelling Chart, so I thought I should share it digitally with you:
This is a Correlation Chart for when you`re at the library or buying books for home, because there are SO many levelling systems out there it could drive a person mad :P
We reviewed a bit of Number Sense this week and added a few pages to our Red Math Folders. First, we started with a BLANK hundreds chart, NO numbers were on it except for 1, 10, 25, 62, 75 and 100 as anchors. Using those #s as clues, students were asked to fill in a few other #s. For example, where would 69 go? Should we start at the way at the beginning and count by 1s? Some students used these strategies: start at 62 and count on until you get to 69; start at 10 and skip count down the last column by 10 until you get to 70, then just count back 1; count on bys 1s until you get to 9, then skip down the columns by 10s until you get to 69 (9, 19, 29 ... 69!); count back from 75. Try printing this blank 100s chart at home (you can add a few numbers to help as anchors) and then ask your son or daughter to find some missing numbers!
*Note, don't just fill in the whole chart – that's easy ;) Take the time to talk about how to use the chart: count on by 1s to the right of each row; count back by 1s to the left of each row; skip count by 10s as you move up or down in each of the columns.
If you'd rather try something interactive, this is a fun missing numbers 100s chart game.
Sorting and Patterning are still our focus. Grade 1s are using Snap Cubes to: create repeating colour patterns; name the core; share with a buddy and ask 'what comes next?'; create NEW and DIFFERENT patterns with the same attributes (e.g., red & blue: red, red, blue is an AAB pattern, but you could swap it and try red, blue, blue to make an ABB pattern too).
Grade 2s are: creating their own repeating patterns (shapes, sizes, colours etc.); describing (naming) patterns in various ways using letters (AAB), words (red, red, blue) numbers (112); and also answering questions like 'What are 4 ways to show an AAAB pattern?'. Soon, we will get into growing and shrinking patterns with the grade 2s. Try some of this game at home as an extension activity, PLEASE be sure to click on the 1-100 Chart when you use this interactive Number Patterns Game
Skip Count and find repeating number patterns (2, 4, 6, 8, 10 OR 5, 10, 15, 20) or harder still, creating a GROWING pattern, for example, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32 (doubling) OR 1, 2, 4, 7, 11, 16, 22, 29 (grows by 1 more each time). Play with it and have fun! If you print any, be sure your son or daughter writes about the pattern rule, then bring them in and I can support your homework practice by offering descriptive feedback.
If you're having trouble, check this example online before you begin with your son or daughter. Full of visuals and examples of number patterns.
Scholastic Holiday Gifts: The Scholastic Flyers went home this Wednesday and are due back by this Monday December the 1st! We need to get them to Shelley ASAP as the December items sell out quickly AND because we want to ensure delivery before the holidays :)
Royal Winter Fair on Wednesday November the 12th was SO MUCH FUN! First, we all sat down in a huge arena to watch a horse show; we noticed some similarities and differences in the animals, like some could jump or run really fast, while others were big and slow. Afterwards we were lucky to see a Super Dogs performance! Ask your son or daughter which dog trick they liked the best. Afterwards, we divided up into our groups to explore until the end of the day. Some highlights were: the petting zoo; live cow milking; live sheep shearing; the aMAZEing maze (of foods); food competitions (best of, biggest of etc); but most of all – the stalls upon stalls and cages upon cages of ANIMALS that we could see and sometimes touch, but also ask the owners tons of questions about!
Roots of Empathy is an amazing program that we will begin NEXT WEEK! Our facilitator, Ilse, met with me last week and told me a little but about our momma Melissa and her baby boy, Sasha. The students will have their first session with Ilse next week, to learn a little bit more about what the program is and then we will get to meet our family. Check out Roots of Empathy.
Respect & Responsibility while I'm away: A big thank you to parents and students alike, for checking in with one another and making use that the days run smoothly when I'm away, at sporting events or PD. I appreciate your support!
Leave a Reply.
In our Room 108 Classroom Community, we foster an engaging, respectful and caring environment. I aim to balance a consistent program with flexible responsiveness to students' individual needs.

We all love traditional hawker fare, as found at coffee shops and by the road. But sometimes, we just aren't in the mood to brave the heat. A new hawker-style food court, Malaysian Boleh!, has just opened at Four Seasons Place Kuala Lumpur (with air-conditioning!).
It houses 19 types of Chinese dishes, from different states, all under one roof. We got to taste a few and here's what we think.
Psst… all food is prepared according to their original recipes, from their original owners (who used to sell the dish), to give you quality hawker food!
