BestCashCow tracks mortgage, home equity, and auto loan rates. In the future, we will be adding other loan products. Please contact the lender for questions about their loan products.
The following ratios and data are available to help you better understand the financial condition of Diebold. The data is provided by the NCUA. Please remember that all federal credit unions listed on BestCashCow.com are NCUA insured. No depositor has ever lost money while their funds have been insured by NCUA.
|U.S. Average
The Texas Ratio compares the amount of loans at risk and assets repossessed with the amount a credit union has on hand to cover any losses. As of March 31, 2016, Diebold had $57,001 in non-current loans and $0 in owned assets. To cover these potential losses it had $1,482,214 in net worth and $56,791 in loans loss reserves. That gives it a Texas Ratio of 3.70%. The closer the Texas Ratio is to 100% and over, the less capital and reserves a credit union has to absorb its loan losses.
|U.S. Average
Diebold FCU has a net worth of 8.45% versus the BestCashCow average of 10.85%. Net worth measures how much total assets exceed total liabilities. The higher the net worth number the more secure a credit union is considered.

UMC Event Calendar
Film: Invisible Children - free and open to the public
Wednesday, November 30, 2011
Every night, while we remain comfortably in our homes, thousands of children in Northern Uganda walk miles to a larger town, seeking a safe resting spot away from the Lord's Resistance Army (LRA). These are the invisible children or "night commuters."
In order to avoid abduction, the invisible children crowd into bus parks, verandas and hospitals and sleep packed together because staying in their village homes is simply too dangerous. The LRA abducts children from their village homes and forces them to join the rebel ranks. Once the children are under rebel control, they are trained to kill under the threat of death and mutilation. Young girls are taken as sex slaves.
These innocent children are Invisible -- because they roam distant battlefields away from public scrutiny, because no records are kept of their numbers or age, because their own armies deny they exist.
Over the past 19 years, it is estimated that the LRA has abducted 20,000 children.
About the film
In 2004, Bobby, Jason and Laren, three guys from Southern California, went to Uganda in search of a film-worthy adventure. Instead, they found a story that permanently changed their lives. In Northern Uganda, they encountered the thousands of children fleeing the brutality of the LRA. They experienced first-hand the fear and pain that enslaves the Acholi people - fear of abduction, death, mutilation, rape and permanent separation from their families.
This 60-minute documentary tells the invisible children's story through interviews with Ugandan politicians, social workers, adults and the children themselves.
In response, they started a non-profit organization called Invisible Children. Please check outtheir website at www.invisiblechildren.com for more information.

After Identity by Georgia Warnke
Book DescriptionSocial and political theorists have traced in detail how individuals come to possess gender, sex and racial identities. This book examines the nature of these identities. Georgia Warnke argues that identities, in general, are interpretations and, as such, have more in common with textual understanding than we commonly acknowledge. A racial, sexed or gendered understanding of who we and others are is neither exhaustive of the 'meanings' we can be said to have nor uniquely correct. We are neither always, or only, black or white, men or women or males or females. Rather, all identities have a restricted scope and can lead to injustices and contradictions when they are employed beyond that scope. In concluding her argument, Warnke considers the legal and policy implications that follow for affirmative action, childbearing leave, the position of gays in the military and marriage between same-sex partners.

(This review is for Clip Board (8.25 Inches X 11.75 Inches) by Uday)
Ok, I think I am the saving grace to the reviews on this product. Here goes:
I took the plunge and for 10 bucks, I had the flexibility to either love it or hate it. I really like it.
Gimmick: it's a nostalgic piece so the gimmick is what you think it is. It doesn't use Riggs' technology, but it's reliable. Very. More reliable than many people always gave it credit for. At the end of the day, that's all that matters.
Uses: since the gimmick is what you think it is, you will need refills. With the Internet, it's easy to buy it.
It IS NOT an instant reset. This is strictly pre show. But with material such a Peter Turner 's STEM System and the untold story of frequent pre show, it necessary to have at your disposal. But at 10 bucks, you get something that's good.
The placement of the gimmick is actually smart. Fooled the pants off of me. Even if you don't like the construction, you can use this board to toy with and make better. Or you can use this board to make it easier accessible. He placement is rather devious. Did I mention the board is just 10 bucks?
Applications: if you have my (Cedric Taylor)'s Omniscient, Fly on the Wall, or Gnostic, you can use the "gimmick you think this board uses" to increase the reliability of my pre show use of any show. You can truly give the appearance of doing a prop less, almost Derren Brown-esque performance with just a little thought and my material. I'm all but giving you much as possible with it being full on exposure. But don't sleep on this. At the very least, you can be inspired.

Recently, forums stalwart and dear friend Ozma promised she would help me out with Comedy Goldmine by drawing something for the thread "MS Paint weird things you do with your food." I assumed this was just another example of her trenchant FYAD wit, and I had a hearty chuckle. Then I discovered that the thread idea I'd assumed to be an amusing parody was a real thing, and furthermore, that Ozma had not actually contributed to it! Once I got over the disorientation and disillusionment these realizations produced, I started sifting through the offerings. This isn't the most impressive thread artistically, but it's still noteworthy due to the inventive methods SA Goons have devised to turn simple meals into something bizarrely meticulous and/or gross and dangerous. Bon appétit!
Lord Solitare: Why am I not surprised goons will eat the paper muffins are baked in?
Eikre: Nobody actually eats it. They chew all the muffin residue out of it, like a fibrous breadgum.
I like to nibble the edges off my sandwiches and make them into fun shapes, like a topiary.
Lately I've taken to putting my first initial on one and my boyfriend's first initial on the other, then mashing together. Must be love.

Although the question presented in Prazen v. Shoop was limited to the field of public pensions, the case presented interesting aspects of fiduciary law and statutory construction as well. The question in Prazen was whether the Illinois Municipal Retirement Fund – a board with fiduciary duties under the Pension Code – had the authority to declare a portion of the plaintiff's pension, his "early retirement incentives" (ERI), forfeited on the grounds that the corporation he created to take over his position was a mere "guise" for evading the return-to-work provisions of the statute. In an opinion by Justice Robert R. Thomas for a five-Justice majority, the Illinois Supreme Court held Friday morning that the Fund board had no such authority. Our detailed summary of the underlying facts and administrative and lower court rulings in Prazen is here. Our report on the oral argument is here.
Three years before his retirement, plaintiff – superintendent of the city's electric department – formed a business in partnership with the then-mayor of his city to redevelop real estate. He intended to perform the necessary electrical upgrades and modifications through his as-yet-unincorporated business, Electrical Consultants, Inc. ("ECL").
Two weeks before plaintiff's 1998 retirement from the electric department, he incorporated ECL. A few days later – and still ten days before his retirement – ECL entered into a contract with the City. The contract provided that on January 1, 1999 – the day after plaintiff's retirement – ECL would take over management and supervision of the electric department. The agreement was signed by plaintiff's business partner, the Mayor, on behalf of the city. The agreement provided that the annual fee to ECL would be around $7,000 more than plaintiff's final salary at the time of his retirement. The initial three-year contract was extended by one-year riders eight times following its initial execution.
The potential problem here is Section 7-141.1(g) of the Pension Code: "An annuitant who has received any age enhancement or creditable service under this Section and thereafter accepts employment with or enters into a personal services contract with an employer under this Article thereby forfeits that age enhancement and creditable service . . ."
Plaintiff repeatedly sought assurances from the Illinois Municipal Retirement Fund Board that his contract with the city didn't imperil any part of his pension. His first letter was dated more than two months before ECL was incorporated and he retired. In that letter, an IMRF representative allegedly told him that he could contract with the city as an independent contractor, or the city could contract with a corporation like ECL, even though ECL employed the plaintiff. Four years later, the IMRF Board supposedly told plaintiff's attorney that everything in the 1998 letter still applied. In late 2002, an IMRF representative allegedly said that a retiree receiving ERI benefits could work for a corporation contracting with the city as long as the corporation wasn't just a guise to avoid the pension regulations. The representative suggested that if ECL worked for some member of the public rather than just the city, everything should be fine.
But in late 2010 – about eighteen months after plaintiff had finally terminated ECL's contract with the city and completely retired – the IMRF suddenly changed its mind, informing plaintiff that his contract with the city had violated Section 7.141.1(g) after all. The IMRF benefit review committee confirmed the decision, holding that ECL was a "guise" to evade the return-to-work provisions of the statute and ordering the plaintiff to repay his ERI benefits. The IMRF Board of Trustees affirmed the committee determination, pointing to several facts, including the timing of ECL's creation and dissolution, the timing of the agreement with the city, the de minimis nature of the work ECL did for anyone other than the city, the fact that plaintiff, his wife and daughter were the only employees of ECL, and the fact that plaintiff was the only employee qualified to do what the contract required. The Circuit Court affirmed. But the Appellate Court (Fourth District) reversed, holding that the Board of Trustees had no authority to forfeit plaintiff's ERI benefits on such a basis.
The Supreme Court agreed with the Appellate Court. Before the Court, the Board argued that "employment with" and "personal services contract with" in Section 7.141(g) were ambiguous – even though the Board never held that plaintiff had run afoul of either of these limitations. The Supreme Court majority found both terms sufficiently clear. The majority concluded that plaintiff had not accepted employment with the city following his retirement, since he was an employee of ERI. The Court also found that the contract was not a personal services contract, since it was between two corporations, and did not identify any individual as being material to its performance. The Court also pointed out that even though only plaintiff was qualified to perform the necessary services among ERI employees, nothing in the contract required that plaintiff be the one carrying out ERI's functions. In the alternative, the Board argued that its general authority to make "administrative decisions on participation and coverage" under the Fund was a sufficient basis for its decision, but the majority found that the Board's power could not be stretched so far as to permit the Board to create a third, unenumerated grounds for forfeiture which the legislature had never mentioned. Since the Court found no evidence that the legislature intended to bar arrangements such as the one plaintiff entered into with the city, the plaintiff's contractual relationship could not be grounds for forfeiture.
Justice Charles E. Freeman dissented, with Justice Anne B. Burke joining. Justice Freeman summed up his position succinctly: "[U]nder the majority's decision the Board, a fiduciary, had no authority to perform its fiduciary function." Justice Freeman pointed out that the city had paid ECL slightly over one million dollars during the life of the contract, while the plaintiff continued to receive his enhanced ERI pension. "[T]he Board determined that plaintiff committed a fraud against the IMRF," Justice Freeman wrote. Given that the Board had fiduciary responsibilities under 40 ILCS 5/1-109 of the Pension Code, the Board necessarily had the authority to respond appropriately under such circumstances, Justice Freeman concluded.

Video: Should A Chicken Sandwich Last Longer Than A High School Romance?
A few months ago, as I watched a video in a post by a colleague called "A Fascinating Look Inside a McDonald's Photo Shoot" I remember thinking "Hey, all that food styling is pretty neat and I want one of those crème brulee things!" Of course, slick advertising is only part of the fast-food formula. This past weekend, I couldn't put down Michael Moss's New York Times Magazine piece on the processed food industry, "The Extraordinary Science of Addictive Junk Food." As Moss writes, countless staples and grocery aisle treats are made with the "perfect" amounts of the Holy Trinity of processed food: added sugar, salt, and fat (along with other chemicals designed to make us crave more). And then there are the additives and preservatives that keep it all looking "fresh" days, weeks and months longer than natural, unprocessed foods. As these evocative videos from the experimental kitchen lab of Pandora's Lunchbox author Melanie Warner remind us, a chicken sandwich shouldn't last longer than a high school romance.
And here's a bonus. How does the evolution of your cheese unfold?
Simultaneously grossed out and intrigued (just like me)? Then you'll devour her just-released book, Pandora's Lunchbox: How Processed Food Took Over the American Meal.

This really is a fantastic ad, the art direction was amazing!

OK... the message is conventional but the art direction is outstanding. I like it.

We're proud of the fact that California has just about the world's strongest laws protecting LGBT people anywhere in the world.
But did you know that California still has laws that criminalize and stigmatize people living with HIV? That transgender and gender non-conforming people often face harassment and violence while simply trying to use the restroom? Or that California schools have only just begun to address the fact that LGBT kids are up to four times more likely to attempt suicide than their non-LGBT peers? These are some of the critical issues we are attempting to address with our 2016 legislative package.
Our 10 2016 sponsored pieces of legislation begin to address these serious gaps in LGBT protections:
AJR 45: Resolution in Support of the Equality Act
SJR 26 – Urging Science-Based Guidelines for Blood Donation
SB 1146: Uncovering Discrimination in Higher Education
AB 2246: Suicide Prevention Policies in Schools
SB 1408: HIV Organ and Tissue Donation Equity
AB 1887: Prevent California-Funded Travel to States with A License to Discriminate
AB 1888: Cal Grant Disinvestment in Discrimination
AB 1732: The Equal Restroom Access Act
AB 1675: Diversion Instead of Prosecution for Juvenile Victims
SB 1005: Modernizing Code Language to Reflect Marriage Equality

Most people start the New Year feeling bilious and over-full. Not me: I've kicked it all off rather emptily. I mean that literally rather than existentially, because I've just moved house and I have no furniture.
It's a lovely time to relocate, this month which is equal parts dreariness and naïve optimism; when all the telly adverts are for honing the body you have into something entirely unrecognisable, or for starting a collection of collectables that you'll never manage to collect.
January is the time to embark on interminable projects, and moving house must be one of the most eternally unfolding and unsolvable. Just when you think you've covered all bases, packed everything away and tied up the loose ends, something further arises and you realise you're no nearer finishing than you are starting, caught bang in the middle of a creaky-looking rope bridge like Indiana Jones, with each side of the chasm equally unreachable. To move house is to be caught in a cycle of ongoing Sisyphean tasks that never reach any conclusion. That's how it feels spending every day on hold to British Gas, anyway.
It took me two attempts to move out of my last place. The reason? Too much old shite, as the Emperor Joseph II didn't quite say to Mozart. Too many boxes, too much hoarding, too much toot that I haven't been big enough to jettison during the journey of my life.
I keep clothes that don't fit and artefacts I don't like, pictures I never look at and books I haven't read. Two thousand (approx) different fabrications and flavours of soap; 500 half-empty bottles of shampoo; seven bin bags of shoes, and a cutesy garden lantern despite the fact I've never had a garden and have moved to a flat with no garden. Nevertheless, I ENDEAVOURED to take them all with me in a van designed to fit roughly half that volume.
It is all here with me now, after two journeys in the van and an Apocrypha in the boyfriend's Ford Focus, towering over me in cardboard boxes whose brandings and slogans make no sense whatsoever in their new context. "Always sell your eggs in rotation" reads one that's crammed with towels. Next to it is a Cuisine de France crate, once filled with croissants but now with crockery. Down the hall, there is a fancy fashionable carrier bag of the sort you sometimes see celebrities with, overflowing with bathroom ephemera and a loo brush.
Still, all this mess – or "potential", as I have philosophically renamed it until I see some viable method of actually putting it all away somewhere – makes me feel like anything is possible. I feel very January. I am the Laurence Llewelyn-Bowen of my own demesne, and I shall scumble glaze the drawbridge, just as soon as I've worked out how you switch the heating on.
Since I moved, I've spent the week in a strange purgatory, at home but not at home. I've done a lot of trudging – it turns out, when you move house, everything you need is a semi-long trudge away to local shops you haven't yet become familiar with. One day soon this trudging will be par for the course, but at the moment I find myself going the wrong way, taking the wrong shortcuts (oftentimes a longcut, it transpires) and generally wandering, in search of screwdrivers, door hooks and other things I've never been particularly interested in before.
The really exciting parts of moving house – the furniture and fittings, the moment it takes shape from a slum to something sprung fully formed from the mind of Cath Kidston – are things that happen despite your efforts rather than because of them: the kismet of finding and meeting not a life partner but a sideboard that you really like the look of; the placing of knick-knacks just so, in order that they appear artfully strewn rather than painstakingly placed. These are not things I really know how to effect.
So I'm trudging on, from out-of-town DIY centre to north-London junk shop, in search of the equivalent new body and new-year collectables for my new home. I'm thinking of things like cushions. I find myself peering in other people's windows and wondering how their scheme would look in my new gaffe. (The answer is always "distinctly inappropriate", seeing as I only tend to look in the windows of the really nice, big houses on the other side of the street, a single armchair from which would render the rest of my new flat Lilliputian.)
It's what some people like to term "a project". But I've never been into those – I'm hardwired for instant gratification, but I'm learning to bite it back. It'll be worth all this old shite staying in boxes for another three months when I find that perfect mid-century modern display cabinet for it all. In the meantime, I'd settle for just being able to work out how to turn the heating on.

I don't know why I have more animosity towards Seton Hall than any of the other schools that will form the corp of the Big Priest. It might be a Jersey thing coupled with being a private school that creates a particularly noxious breed of self-entitled fanbase and program that enjoys more relevance than, say, Farleigh-Dickenson simply for its Big East affiliation. At least Providence had a whole New England basketball culture to claim from the 70s with BC, Holy Cross, etc.
I guess it's worth mentioning that the Pirates are coached (technically) by a former Pitt player in Kevin Willard. They aren't particularly good. They sit at a righteous 13th in the Big East. Ahead of the only teams they have beaten this year — USF and DePaul. They have shown themselves capable of being blown out (74-52 to Georgetown) and playing a great game to only fall short (65-59 against Cinci).
The Pirates have had injuries — losing Patrik Auda to injury — and not getting their own transfer waiver to go — Ashton Gibb's little brother, Sterling from Texas. They have tried to rebuild quickly from the Gonzo years with transfers. They have Brian Oliver from Georgia Tech and Gene Teague from SIU providing an impact.
They have a very good guard in Fuquan Edwin. I do expect Edwin to give Pitt some problems. He's a wing player so Lamar Patterson will have primary defensive duties. Durand Johnson better be ready to play, because I am betting that Patterson will have some foul troubles tonight.
Coach Jamie Dixon is preaching that the team still hasn't played a great game in over a week. And that all the games really matter at this point.
"It's not like it gets easier," Dixon said. "I think every game is a must-win. That's the kind of standard we've developed here and play with.
"We were extremely disappointed with how we played against Louisville. We didn't get it done with a three-point game on the road against a good team. You've got to finish off and get it done here (Saturday), and we did. We were down after that game because we didn't feel we played well — or up to our standards."
Tray Woodall is closing in on the 1000 point barrier to go with 500+ assists.
The list of others that reached 1,000 points and 500 assists reads like a who's who of Pitt's all-time great guards. It includes Brandin Knight, Carl Krauser, Jerry McCullough, Sean Miller, Levance Fields and Darelle Porter.
"It would be an honor to join those guys," Woodall said. "I know when I got here no one expected me to do it."
There was a time when fans cringed when he shot a 3-pointer. He made just 1 of 12 attempts from behind the arc as a freshman. He shot 27 percent the next season and 29 percent the following season.
Now he's one of the team's best outside shooters. He improved to 38.6 percent last season and is shooting 37 percent this season. More than one-third of his 978 points have come from behind the 3-point line. He can thank his improved shooting stroke when he becomes the 41st player in school history to reach 1,000 points.
"It would mean a lot to do it," Woodall said of scoring 1,000 points. "There have been a lot of great players here. But I'm not focused on it. I'm just doing whatever I can to help the team win."
I don't like SH because they had a single good season and did nothing but coast from there.
So like Providence, they were parasites to the league.Whatever people may think of Pitt, it does not take you in
without considering what you will be when you leave. I look at Herb Pope and wonder what he gained or learned while at
So lay a butt kicking on them and if you really want to experience a sense of entitlement, spend a week in State College. Last time I looked, it was a public school. Lily white it is true, but public nonetheless.
Anyone know of 3rd-party site to stream this?
And Seton Hall has been to one Final Four and one NCAA Championship game, I think around 1990
So that's more than us.
And like SFPitt said, back in the 60's PITT was a private school as well.
If you haven't loved the RC's you're going to really enjoy the Baptists. lol
When 8 teams were invited and it wasn't such a big deal. The bigger tournament back then was the NIT, as most of the better teams chose that to play in since it was played in NYC at MSG. The NCAA didn't get first choice of teams until the mid 1950's.
Does anyone know where we can pick up the radio broadcasts for free ??
Miss hearing those guys.
You gotta love Al McGuire. I found out when I moved down here, before he was at Marquette he coached at this tiny college outside Charlotte,
called Belmont Abbey.
What utter nerve they have. They are quite lucky they didn't receive the "death penalty" and are hoping to get the NCAA to reconsider BEFORE the trial starts involving Spanier, Curley & Schultz.
I don't think the NCAA would be that stupid.
But who knows where money is involved.
Emel …. LMAO
Thanks, but I think I've tried that before and it doesn't work at gametime.
Everyone wants some payola to listen on the internet anymore.
Wait until the 3 top level administrators start calling each other liars under oath. Then it will be time to call in the executive secretaries. My two top assistants have all my passwords but maybe Spanier, Schultz and Curly are different.
If it is done correctly (and with the level of barristers in the AG's office, that is an iffy proposition) the administrators will come out and likely call them all liars. We know at least two are lying: once the girls come in and tell the truth then and only then will the NCAA bat an eye. Until then, PSU has a choice: leave the NCAA or take the punishment. PSU is not a protected category and the Commonwealth of Pa lacks standing to sue, IMO.
This will end up costing Corbett a second term.
Lastly, I find it amusing that the same actor who played Michael Corleone, Scarface and Satan has been cast as Joe Paterno. Looks like Pacino has embraced typecasting in his d age.
I also don't get espnU. I plan on listening on Sirius. They usually carry all PITT football $ basketball games. I rather watch on TV but better than watching on the scroll on ESPN.
Donald Sutherland for Sandusky is a great call, he would be perfect.
If I see our bigs put the ball on the floor one more time I am going to break the TV
We CAN lose this game. Hope Jamie wakes em up.
Our first 9PM game and it looks like they've been out drinking early. C;mon guys@
Some call it vibe. Others call it justice.
Hopefully, we can slug it out and find a way to win.
This is getting serious.
Pitt has got to stay calm and work thru this. every team has nights like this. But…calm seems to have left the building.
It would help if we could cut to the basket more.
I have only done this with one team I ever coached but if I was Jamie, no one would get out of their uniform They would stay and shoot free throws for an hour and the guards would play one on one dribbling with their bar arm up until they dropped.
10 – 21 from the foul line is unacceptable!
I admire what SH did and I admire what Pitt did too!
We had to dig deep.
And we did; mostly with defense.
It's very very good to get the W on this one.
I love the Big East.
At work today I didn't bring my best. I had a big project due at the end of last week. I was burned out.
It happens. We won and had to tough it out. Anyone can win when they are on their game; show me a team that can win when it plays poorly and I'll call that team a "winner".
Winning is a frame of mind. Pitt is a winner whether anyone likes it or not.
@SFPitt – couldn't agree more. Thanks for making the point.
Patterson is frustrating even though he often ends up with the most points. Maybe it's because he can do much more.
7 wins, tied with Cuse' for tops in BE.
Back in the top 25. 19-5.
Sloppy yes, but I think most of us could have called that after a big game.
I also saw a little bit, for the first time, a little bit of the bravado of "ok, there's 5 minutes to go, we're the better team, let's win the game".
Free throw shooting nauseasting. Robinson does not have one fluid motion. He dribbles, bends his knees, then looks like me throwing a dart in the bar.
Two big ones coming up!!!
Who played well tonite? Adams, Wright. Who was MIA? The Z's, Taylor. Put Moore on both lists. Here's to hoping that was a trap game and not a regression. Two tough roads games coming.
Big positive Adams was really good. He owned Teague who going into the game was averaging double figures in points and nearly 8 boards a game. If Adams keeps it up he will be force.
Also, by the way Tim Higgins wasn't reffing the game. There was a John Higgins who has never really reffed Pitt games before. Although, he actually reffed the Pitt-Butler NCAA tournament game. So he is probably not much better than Tim Higgins. But there was a ref who is usually horrible during Pitt games present. John Cahill. He is the tall skinny guy with gray hair. I've seen him call some of pretty bad games.
Adams making a huge difference in the middle. Everyone contributing something positive.
Hopefully we just keep getting sharper, cut the turnovers, make the layups and foul shots, keep up the work on the boards and strong defense.
The next three games are going to tell us a lot about this team. Need two out of three.
Don't know how we won, but we did.
Just got home from watching that semblance of a game at a local watering hole.
Only thing that saved us was SH shooting 33% and 25% from 3. Cause we were god awful as well.
35% for Pitt. We did outrebound them, I guess cause we missed 30 shots. lol There will be lots of rebounds when you miss 30 shots.
Moore was the only one above 50% for the game, so naturally they only gave him the ball so little he only took 4 shots….making 3.
Glad we won, but we play like that and it will be one & done in the BE tourney and the Big Dance (if we get in). Blah.

The term "binary options" describes the choice you are facing quite perfectly: you always have to choose between just two possible outcomes, regardless of the sort of binary options contract we're talking about. While there are more intricate (think ladder options) trades/contracts on offer out there, at the end of the day, they all come down to the choice between Call/Put or Touch/No Touch.
Epic Winner Software binary – Intelligent trading system!
Binary Options is an option of either 0 or 1, it's a quick and simple method of trading in which the trader has only two available options. The trader invests a certain amount of money and decides whether he believes the asset's price will rise or fall during a predetermined time frame. If the trader is correct, he immediately receives the amount he invested, plus the addition of his earned profit. If he turns out to be wrong, the invested amount will be lost. When trading on a simple, easy to use binary option trading platform, the maximum profit and loss amounts for each trade are displayed, along with a time frame for their expiration.

The battle is versus The Shaterer who is like Kralkatorrik´s commander.
Yeah Kralkatorrik is as big as a small country...

He's the only one set for release.
That´s not correct... there are at least 5 Dragons in GW2:
Zhaitan will be the primary antagonist at the start of Guild Wars 2 and rightfully so. He awakens in 1219 AE (131 years after Lion's Arch is retaken and 106 years before the start of GW2) on the sunken peninsula that once contained the great human Kingdom of Orr. As he awakes he brings the landmass back from the seabed causing massive damage from the tidal waves to the nearby Corsairs calling the broken islands of Orr their home, as well as the coasts along southern Tyria (flooding Lion's Arch in the process). Zhaitan then enslaves the walking undead of Orr and brings the Corsairs ships up out of the water and uses them to block access to the rest of the world. He essentially comes out with a bang.
Since he's the first dragon players will do battle against it can be assumed that the primary goal of the game will be the assault of Orr and the push into Arah, where he is currently residing. Can you take down this fearsome dragon? We won't find out until the game launches proper. Nothing much is known about him beyond his power to raise the dead and him being the first main enemy in the GW2 series.
Jormag awakens in 1165 within Drakkar Lake (he can currently be seen there in GW:EN) at which point he'll begin assaulting the Norn within the Northern Shiverpeaks. The Norn will fall in battle due to the fact that they each want to fight alone against him and will lose their land having to flee to the Southern Shiverpeaks. The Norn are currently engaged in battle with Jormag and his minions in order to retake their homelands.
Interesting Fact: The Sons of Svanir are a Norn cult dedicated to Jormag and work against the forces of good. For those of you who have played through the norn storyline in GW:EN, the "Norn Bear" quest line is just a small taste of the kind of influence Jormag will have over his shapeshifting followers in Guild Wars 2.
Kralkatorrik will be the latest dragon to awake when you begin the game, awakening in 1320 AE within the Grothmar Wardowns inside of the Charr Homeland (currently visible in that location). He'll make his way from there through the land once known as Ascalon and into the Crystal Desert where he'll reside within the location currently known as Glint's Lair. On his flight south, he'll leave behind the Dragonbrand, a large area of land turned to crystal where his retainers reside within.
Pictured above, The Shatterer is a dragon that terrorizes the Dragonbrand, a massive scar in the landscape left in the wake of Kralkatorrik's flight south into the Crystal Desert.
This brand will also cut the human stronghold Ebonhawke off from the rest of the former kingdom of Ascalon. Between the charr (who notably consider Gwen, one of Ebonhawk's founders, to be a bloodthirsty villain), the minions of Kralkatorrik spilling out of the Brand, and the many ghosts of Ascalon's great war with the charr, the people of Ebonhawke certainly face many challenges ahead.
Meanwhile, due to the Crystal Dragon's presence in the desert, direct access to Elona has been cut off. However, the Crystal Desert itself is also of special significance in Tyrian history. It is here that adventurers formerly reached a state of Ascension with the help of Turai Ossa, enabling them to overcome not only the Mursaat, but the Titans which the Lich attempted to unleash upon Tyria. Going even further back, the Forgotten Ones, a race of snakelike creatures that predates the arrival of humans in Tyrian lore, were also known to inhabit the region.
There is a dragon residing within the sea and no information is currently available on it, other than a short mention in the following interview:
The DSD (Deep Sea Dragon) is a fave on the boards primarily because we've been so quiet about it. Part of the reason for our reticence is that it does not yet have as much direct impact on our five primary races. I mean, you have four impossibly huge and deadly dragons to start with, and you want a fifth? Oooookay.
Primordus resides within the depths of Tyria (seen awakening in the final cinematic in GW:EN) and is the first to awaken in 1120 AE. His forces previously attempted to invade Tyria, led by the Great Destroyer (a simple minion within his vast army), but were defeated by a group of adventurers and the Dwarves after making a great sacrifice to turn themselves to stone to fight the Great Destroyer.
After he awakens the stone guardians guard the exits from the depths keeping Primordus and his minions locked deep away within the bowels of Tyria. Surprisingly, not much else is known and Primordus will not be the main dragon at the start of the game that players will face off against.
Well that's the Eldar Dragons in Guild Wars 2. Are you excited to fight these beasts or are you worried that the forces of Tyria won't be enough to defeat them all? Come to the Ten Ton Hammer community forums and share your thoughts.

Thanks for that info on the dragons it tells alot of the history to of when the rose to power and what came after that. Also didn't A-net say in an enterview that there would be others in later expansions?
To me I enjoy gaming I dont play to be uber I play to have fun. If a game is not fun to me guess what I move on and play something else till I find one that is. When I find that great game and not sure if in my life time there will be one I hope it has everything I want in an mmo.
The truth may be puzzling. It may take some work to grapple with. It may be counterintuitive. It may contradict deeply held prejudices. It may not be consonant with what we desperately want to be true. But our preferences do not determine what's true.

Looks great. Thanks OP. However, am i the only one that thinks that it's going to be really weird and kind off stupid to have only 5 people do this dungeon?

I thought Zhaitan with be a world event?
Nope. Confirmed in the wiki and interviews. Just google Zhaitan dungeon.
Kind off funny, the game doesn't have raids and a 25 man run would fit perfectly with this. You need 10 players to defeat the Shatterer and other events of that type, but only need 5 for the big boss. I know, they'll probably use NPC to pilot those ships, but still, LOL.

This paper studies the forces which determine how diversity at a firm evolves over time. We consider a dynamic model of a single firm with two levels of employees, the entry level and the upper level. In each period, the firm selects a subset of the entry-level workers for promotion to the upper level. The members of the entry-level worker pool vary in their initial ability as well as in their "type," where type could refer to gender or cultural background. Employees augment their initial ability by acquiring specific human capital in mentoring interactions with upper level employees. We assume that an entry-level worker receives more mentoring when a greater proportion of upper-level workers match the entry-level worker's type. In this model, it is optimal for the firm to consider type in addition to ability in making promotion decisions, so as to maximize the effectiveness of future mentoring. We derive conditions under which firms attain full diversity, as well as conditions under which there are multiple steady states, so that the level of diversity depends on the firm's initial conditions. With multiple steady states, temporary affirmative action policies can have a long-run impact on diversity levels.

We cannot do it alone, but together we can make an AIDS-free generation a reality. The blueprint is driven by five key principles that are the foundation of PEPFAR's work with partner countries.
Read Whole Story
In 2013, activists and advocates for TB-HIV will call for leadership and funding to support the most important multi-country mechanism we have to end these diseases. This will be a a critical and historic moment in the history of global health.
Recently I attended the Africa Brain Trust 2012 forum entitled "Africa Rising: A Continent of Opportunity," which concentrated on reinforcing support for promising development-aid strategies, providing a networking venue for interested professionals and encouraging foreign investment.
What does the U.S. really care about? Do we really value women's lives? Do we really want to create an AIDS-free generation? We're dangerously close to demonstrating that we value politics above all.
We visited Chikumbuso to see an example of successful U.S. foreign assistance firsthand. The women, and most of their children, who gather there each day are HIV positive.
Their ignorance and intransigence expose the U.S. to charges of hypocrisy and accusations that the U.S. is more interested in being the world's policeman than keeping its own women and children safe.
How shall we live, knowing the time of youthful athletic prowess is brief, knowing, as HIV/AIDS reminds us, that life is fragile, precious and short? For me, in my life, with my time, I choose not to be a victim.
The fight against HIV/AIDS is by no means over, but we are at the tipping point where we can look back and see that something once unthinkable IS possible and within reach.
We think of innovations as new technologies, but in healthcare, innovations are often as simple as a pregnant woman with HIV talking with a similarly-affected peer who has successfully navigated the treatment process.
WASHINGTON -- Thousands of people marched on the White House and the Office of the U.S. Trade Representative on Tuesday to protest a new trade agreeme...
Ending the suffering from AIDS is possible in our lifetime. To know it's possible, one need only to see how the investment and the life-saving treatments and drugs that followed it have stalled a once booming coffin making business in Southern Africa.
Full and sustained implementation of GHI's principles is the best way to ensure that U.S. global health programs make a real, measurable difference in the lives of those served by U.S. foreign assistance, and that U.S. dollars are spent effectively.
AIDS 2012 is an important and long overdue opportunity for our domestic pandemic to become part of a global effort. We are literally at a tipping point in the fight against AIDS
Preventing new HIV infections among children is not only the right thing to do, but also a smart investment -- stretching each dollar we invest to save as many lives as we can, both today and tomorrow. This is a hopeful moment in global health.
By committing to the elimination of mother-to-child transmission of HIV, Zimbabwe has ensured that its children will not only survive, but have the opportunity to thrive.
WASHINGTON -- A change of heart from the Obama administration may pave the way to a groundbreaking global deal to provide lifesaving medications to de...
"With a really good education, you have a much broader view of the world. Well-educated people can seek help for themselves. They can help others. Educated people can make their own choices about their governments. And certainly for women, an education allows you to understand your rights."
The idea that differing global health initiatives must compete with each other lacks not only ethical legitimacy but also scientific merit.
What is the greatest gift we can give a mother this Mother's Day? There are many answers, but one is a healthy life for her and her child. This Mother's Day, let's sharpen our resolve to ensure mothers everywhere have children who are born HIV-free.
All women, including those living with HIV, have a right to decide whether and when to have children, and how many to have. Right now, there are 215 million women who want access to modern contraception but do not have it.
The health status of women is linked to their fundamental freedoms and empowerment. Education and occupational opportunities as well as access to health care are crucial components for building a healthier future for women worldwide.
Now is the time for governments rich and poor, donors, providers, researchers, and advocates to find new resources -- and make smarter use of them -- to begin to end the most deadly epidemic of our time.
My time in Africa was educational, inspirational and eye-opening. I'm an expert at living on a budget, but it is hard to comprehend living on less than $1.25 a day and the complex issues that result from subsisting on so little, until you have witnessed it firsthand.
Ending the AIDS epidemic is no longer a hopeful metaphor -- it is a choice. Do we begin to end this disease now, or do we blithely pass it on to future generations?
We have the technology, the medicine, and the resources to have a generation born HIV-free -- we can work together to see the beginning of the end of AIDS by 2015.
