Many editorials have exhausted the topic, the "most important election of our time." With the clock ticking down, leaving us with about 44 days until the country either elects a new candidate, or re-elects the current candidate for a second term, has provided for a huge constellation of theories, think-tanks, conjectures, or gambles as to which candidate, (depending on your political affiliation,) will move the country forward, or turn it around so that it is once again on the correct path.
This is perhaps the most important election of the decade, but not because of the political rhetoric. So many of our political, social, international, educational, constitutional, and religious ideals are at crucially pivotal crossroads.
While I can and have been able to "connect the dots" in so many areas: a grid-locked congress, defaulting entitlement programs including the newly contested health-care mandate, weak foreign policies, and at times, it seems, a disregard for individual and religious rights, the area that most concerns me as an educator, is the slow disembowelment of the traditional educational system, despite some of our nation's best efforts to keep it intact.
If traditional educational institutions are going to survive, then they must be empowered to compete in an environment where the landscape has changed considerably and not always in the best interests of community colleges and universities. Both candidates have created educational platforms, but I do not believe that they are as exploratory as they should be. It is understandable that education, when mentioned, is always defined in terms of a contrast in numerical standings as defined by our "lack of," but is this country willing to change its' course on so many fronts, including authentic educational reform?
Comparison of the traditional base formula, college enrollment rate, and something that I chose to define as the "student model rate" may inadvertently allow higher institutions, or institutions in general, the flexibility to disseminate general state funds that are received through block grants.
Currently, for most postsecondary institutions, the base formula is utilized to determine how state resources are distributed. Student credit hours are weighted by the disciplinary clusters that may have been bundled into an expanded matrix as complied by the National Center for Higher Education Management Systems. A variety of criteria is considered including, but not limited to cost-effectiveness, relevancy, and the actual necessity of the particular modules in comparison to the number of students requiring the particular service based on either graduation requirements, or career choices as defined by the freshman selection criteria.
If institutions were given the flexibility by the state or Board of Regents to more accurately address the needs of its student population through a student rate model, then maybe it could be one of the solutions to revive life into what is fast becoming a dying institution. By addressing the student model rate, institutions would first have to refer to enrollment data while incorporating other forms of statistical information to determine what the best path of retrieval might be.
Modules or the curricula should be weighted more evenly so that an assessment is done in terms of looking at the number of students enrolled in each of the categories. The particular program that has the majority of student enrollment, (for example, cyber-security which also happens to be a vital area in which traditional institutions are losing a huge portion of their funding dollars and student enrollment to for-profit colleges) should closely look at the socioeconomic, demographics, and ability of the students. Not all of the students in that particular module will require the same set of services in order to successfully complete the requirements for graduation, so the state should allow the universities to create an appropriate matrix for each module, based on whatever baseline happens to be in the best fiscal interest of the institution, say per hundred students.
For each "bundle" of students, funding can be appropriated based on the special service needs of that group on a "sliding scaled" basis. Seniors tend to require more job fair services, intern networking, and specificity based on the near completion of their time-lines as opposed to freshmen. Often times, in a given semester, there are more seniors that might graduate or a greater enrollment of freshmen. Each demographic group tends to require either more or less funding based on an assessment of student needs. If universities are better able to identify and target these needs, then they might be better able to spend less in some areas and more in others, based on a scientific formula that is individualized for the unique needs of that particular institution.
Performance-based funding, economic development, and college-readiness programs are component criteria that usually impacts the manner in which institutions spend their federal appropriations, but if they are given the flexibility to spend less or more and based on the reminder of funds, should be allowed to roll-over credit into the next year, the future might not look so gloomy. Despite the fact that there was only a 25% gain of student enrollment in traditional colleges, versus a 236% increase of enrollment for the for-profit institutions, traditional universities might still be able to "close the gap" or stymy it, so to speak even with the availability of less funding.
This student model rate will work not only for the higher institutions, but also for the Head Start Program. Funding will not automatically be appropriated to the program, because it is an important aspect of Early Childhood Education, but will now be targeted into those areas that will best identify and meet the needs of the targeted group of individuals, thus actually providing the needs-based services that the student's actually require.
If we are better able to align our services to the groups of individuals, then we might dually be able to impact students' adequate yearly gain at all levels of education. The United States Secretary of Education stated that a successful educational program should involve five important components: critical thinking, literary and public speaking, collaboration and creativity in problem solving, and civic awareness and engagement. If the Department of Education can work more closely with traditional institutions through creative, collaborative problem solving, then maybe both presidential candidates might be able to explore a more cohesive plan for educational reform.

China EV Sales Report — Baojun E-Series New #1 In Receding Market
The end-of-incentives hangover deepened in August for the Chinese plug-in vehicle market, with the market dropping a steep 12% year over year (YoY) and plug-in hybrids (PHEVs) crashing 51%. Amazingly, fully electric vehicles (BEVs) managed to grow, by 4%, a small increase over the 1% growth rate of July, which means BEVs are currently the only ray of light in the Chinese auto market (the overall market also dropped, by 8% YoY)
Chinese EV Sales In July: After The Subsidy Storm
After an end-of-incentives derived surge in June, July saw the expected hangover, with the Chinese plug-in vehicle market dropping 7% year over year (YoY), and the 70,000 units of last month representing less than half of the deliveries of the previous month. Plug-in hybrids (PHEVs) sank 22% YoY in July, their worst drop in over two years, while, amazingly, fully electric vehicles (BEVs) still managed to grow, if only by 1%, despite the gloom all around them (the overall market also dropped 4%)

China Electric Vehicle Sales Up To 5.4% Market Share
After a first quarter with surging sales, April saw the Chinese plug-in electric vehicle market cool down a little, to some 100,000 registrations. That means it was up only 34% year over year (YoY). Nonetheless, because the mainstream market is still in the red, the April plug-in electric vehicle (PEV) share reached an amazing 6.2%, pulling the PEV market share to 5.4% in 2019 so far, well above the 2018 result (4.2%)
See Why Tesla Scares The Legacy Players
Mase Goslin, whose previous graphs we have highlighted, has compiled a new time series graphic of EV sales in the US, this time by brand. This more clearly shows Tesla's rise to absolute dominance of the US EV market, crushing all other players and accelerating off over the horizon. EVs are the future, and Tesla is the undisputed market leader, especially in the US, but also globally. If you're an automaker on the wrong side of this trend, it must be terrifying!

Developing partnerships with older people and their family carers: The ÄldreVäst Sjuhärad model
Quality in Ageing and Older Adults
Publication date: 1 June 2001
This article describes the aims and philosophy of a research centre focusing on the needs of older people and their family carers in West Sweden (ÄldreVäst Sjuhärad). The Centre aims to promote partnerships between older people, their carers and service agencies in order to improve the quality of life and quality of care. In achieving this aim it has adopted a model of working based on principles taken from a constructivist approach to research and evaluation. The quality or 'authenticity' criteria of this approach underpin the Centre's modus operandi and, it is suggested, could from the basis of a more user‐friendly perspective on research.

The practice of taking on excessive risk does not equal excessive returns. Almost all traders who risk large amounts of capital on single trades will eventually lose in the long run. A common rule is that a trader should risk (in terms of the difference between entry and stop price) no more than 1% of capital on any single trade. Professional traders will often risk far less than 1% of capital.
Fluctuations in exchange rates are usually caused by actual monetary flows as well as by expectations of changes in monetary flows. These are caused by changes in gross domestic product (GDP) growth, inflation (purchasing power parity theory), interest rates (interest rate parity, Domestic Fisher effect, International Fisher effect), budget and trade deficits or surpluses, large cross-border M&A deals and other macroeconomic conditions. Major news is released publicly, often on scheduled dates, so many people have access to the same news at the same time. However, large banks have an important advantage; they can see their customers' order flow.
High Risk Warning: Forex, Futures, and Options trading has large potential rewards, but also large potential risks. The high degree of leverage can work against you as well as for you. You must be aware of the risks of investing in forex, futures, and options and be willing to accept them in order to trade in these markets. Forex trading involves substantial risk of loss and is not suitable for all investors. Please do not trade with borrowed money or money you cannot afford to lose. Any opinions, news, research, analysis, prices, or other information contained on this website is provided as general market commentary and does not constitute investment advice. We will not accept liability for any loss or damage, including without limitation to, any loss of profit, which may arise directly or indirectly from the use of or reliance on such information. Please remember that the past performance of any trading system or methodology is not necessarily indicative of future results.
This is quite a nice strategy for traders that have a lot of time at their disposal. Trading breakouts can be a great day trading strategy too. With this strategy you are patiently waiting for big market moves, usually caused by the various changes in the relevant country's economies. Such changes are delivered either unexpectedly or via expected news releases. During breakout trading, a trader opens a position in the forecasted direction, and waits for the currency pair to escalate (or slump) by a large amount of pips.
Whether you are a beginner trader or a pro, it is best to trade with what you see and not what you think. For example, you might think that the US dollar is overvalued and has been overvalued for too long. Naturally, you will want to short and you might be right eventually. But if the price is moving up, it does not matter what you think. In fact, it doesn't matter what anybody thinks – the price is moving up and you should be trading with the trend.
The possibility of losing your investment is high, so it is advisable to only use risk capital (money that you can afford to lose) when engaging in Forex trading. The Forex market offers high levels of leverage to traders. Leverage has both the possibility of high returns and high losses, and should only be used with discretion. Be disciplined and don't be tempted to overtrade.
While searching for the cheapest Forex broker, it really comes down to a combination of spreads, execution quality, commission, and the minimum deposit. These should be the last points you consider when opening a long-term trading account. The best Forex broker for beginners depends on elements like the trading system, the quote feed, instrument portfolios, execution models, and the leverage offered.
Managing your money in Forex trading comes down to the specific measures you use to increase your profits, whilst also minimising potential losses. Successful Forex trading has far more to do with effective money management than having a handful of good trades, and is one of the secrets that separates those who successfully trade FX over the long term, from those who give up after a couple of trades.
These cover the bulk of countries outside Europe. Forex brokers catering for India, Hong Kong, Qatar etc are likely to have regulation in one of the above, rather than every country they support. Some brands are regulated across the globe (one is even regulated in 5 continents). Some bodies issue licenses, and others have a register of legal firms.
One way to deal with the foreign exchange risk is to engage in a forward transaction. In this transaction, money does not actually change hands until some agreed upon future date. A buyer and seller agree on an exchange rate for any date in the future, and the transaction occurs on that date, regardless of what the market rates are then. The duration of the trade can be one day, a few days, months or years. Usually the date is decided by both parties. Then the forward contract is negotiated and agreed upon by both parties.
If the velocity of your trades necessitates low fees, know that you will be sacrificing some educational resources in favor of a streamlined system designed for the pros. You'll be jumping in with both feet. On the other hand, a low minimum account typically comes with the educational resources and communication channels required by new forex investors. The identity of different brokerages rest on the type of investors they aim to appeal to. Choose accordingly.
When you trade forex, you're effectively borrowing the first currency in the pair to buy or sell the second currency. With a US$5-trillion-a-day market, the liquidity is so deep that liquidity providers—the big banks, basically—allow you to trade with leverage. To trade with leverage, you simply set aside the required margin for your trade size. If you're trading 200:1 leverage, for example, you can trade £2,000 in the market while only setting aside £10 in margin in your trading account. For 50:1 leverage, the same trade size would still only require about £40 in margin. This gives you much more exposure, while keeping your capital investment down.
A swap trade involves both. Dealers buy a currency at today's price on the spot market and sell the same amount in the forward market. This way, they have just limited their risk in the future. No matter how much the currency falls, they will not lose more than the forward price. Meanwhile, they can invest the currency they bought on the spot market.
Unlike a stock market, the foreign exchange market is divided into levels of access. At the top is the interbank foreign exchange market, which is made up of the largest commercial banks and securities dealers. Within the interbank market, spreads, which are the difference between the bid and ask prices, are razor sharp and not known to players outside the inner circle. The difference between the bid and ask prices widens (for example from 0 to 1 pip to 1–2 pips for currencies such as the EUR) as you go down the levels of access. This is due to volume. If a trader can guarantee large numbers of transactions for large amounts, they can demand a smaller difference between the bid and ask price, which is referred to as a better spread. The levels of access that make up the foreign exchange market are determined by the size of the "line" (the amount of money with which they are trading). The top-tier interbank market accounts for 51% of all transactions.[60] From there, smaller banks, followed by large multi-national corporations (which need to hedge risk and pay employees in different countries), large hedge funds, and even some of the retail market makers. According to Galati and Melvin, "Pension funds, insurance companies, mutual funds, and other institutional investors have played an increasingly important role in financial markets in general, and in FX markets in particular, since the early 2000s." (2004) In addition, he notes, "Hedge funds have grown markedly over the 2001–2004 period in terms of both number and overall size".[61] Central banks also participate in the foreign exchange market to align currencies to their economic needs.
All exchange rates are susceptible to political instability and anticipations about the new ruling party. Political upheaval and instability can have a negative impact on a nation's economy. For example, destabilization of coalition governments in Pakistan and Thailand can negatively affect the value of their currencies. Similarly, in a country experiencing financial difficulties, the rise of a political faction that is perceived to be fiscally responsible can have the opposite effect. Also, events in one country in a region may spur positive/negative interest in a neighboring country and, in the process, affect its currency.
Currencies are traded against one another in pairs. Each currency pair thus constitutes an individual trading product and is traditionally noted XXXYYY or XXX/YYY, where XXX and YYY are the ISO 4217 international three-letter code of the currencies involved. The first currency (XXX) is the base currency that is quoted relative to the second currency (YYY), called the counter currency (or quote currency). For instance, the quotation EURUSD (EUR/USD) 1.5465 is the price of the Euro expressed in US dollars, meaning 1 euro = 1.5465 dollars. The market convention is to quote most exchange rates against the USD with the US dollar as the base currency (e.g. USDJPY, USDCAD, USDCHF). The exceptions are the British pound (GBP), Australian dollar (AUD), the New Zealand dollar (NZD) and the euro (EUR) where the USD is the counter currency (e.g. GBPUSD, AUDUSD, NZDUSD, EURUSD).
In particular, you should look for a Forex broker that has a major presence in your country or, at a minimum, offers phone and email support in your language. A broker with an efficient customer enquiry and complaints procedure will ensure that if an enquiry is filed by a Forex trader and cannot be resolved within a few hours, it is immediately forwarded to the customer support desk or compliance department.
Finally, consider whether the Forex broker offers education and support. Ongoing education is essential to a Forex trader's development and achieving the best results. This is why Admiral Markets offers a range of free articles and tutorials, webinars and online courses, including Forex 101 and Zero to Hero. In addition to educational content and materials, it's also important to consider the availability of support, so you can get your questions answered, and any potential issues dealt with.
In this view, countries may develop unsustainable economic bubbles or otherwise mishandle their national economies, and foreign exchange speculators made the inevitable collapse happen sooner. A relatively quick collapse might even be preferable to continued economic mishandling, followed by an eventual, larger, collapse. Mahathir Mohamad and other critics of speculation are viewed as trying to deflect the blame from themselves for having caused the unsustainable economic conditions.
Day trading also deserves some extra attention in this area and a daily risk maximum should also be implemented. This daily risk maximum can be 1% (or less) of capital, or equivalent to the average daily profit over a 30 day period. For example, a trader with a $50,000 account (leverage not included) could lose a maximum of $500 per day under these risk parameters. Alternatively, this number could be altered so it is more in line with the average daily gain (i.e., if a trader makes $100 on positive days, they keeps their losses close to $100 or less).
The theory follows sequences of five waves, or five up and down price movements which are then countered by a corrective 3 wave pattern in the opposite direction. The 5 impulsive waves are with the trend, whereas the 3 corrective waves are counter trend. In an 'up' move, there will be three up waves (movements 1, 3 and 5) and two down waves (movements 2 and 4).
The market determines the value, also known as an exchange rate, of the majority of currencies. Foreign exchange can be as simple as changing one currency for another at a local bank. It can also involve trading currency on the foreign exchange market. For example, a trader is betting a central bank will ease or tighten monetary policy and that one currency will strengthen versus the other.
One of the most common trading and investment philosophies is to 'buy low and sell high' - this is particularly the case with long-term investments, such as investing in stocks or bonds, which rely on the asset increasing in value. In the Forex market, you can also sell high and buy low. This way, you can potentially make profits on both downward and upward trends.
Traders know the news events that will move the market, yet the direction is not known in advance. Therefore, a trader may even be fairly confident that a news announcement, for instance that the Federal Reserve will or will not raise interest rates, will impact markets. Even then, traders cannot predict how the market will react to this expected news. Other factors such additional statements, figures or forward looking indications provided by news announcements can also make market movements extremely illogical.
Day trading can take place in any market, but is commonly referred to in the context of either the Forex trading market or the stock trading market. In order to be successful as a Forex day trader, you need to have a decent amount of capital, and a good amount of knowledge of the market behind you. However, having this doesn't necessarily guarantee success. This is especially true when 'invisible hands' are at work, and when the prices fluctuate enormously during intraday Forex trading.
In the above hourly price chart, it is clear to see there has been multiple interactions with the 21 EMA. Sometimes price has bounced off the moving average and sometimes it has broken through. As it has bounced off more times than it has broken through this 'setup' can serve as the basis of this strategy. So now let's identify some rules around this.

The service of the broker you choose, and the platform they offer, is essential in ensuring that you achieve the best trading results. If you were trading on a system that was slow and regularly crashed, for example, you might not be able to enter or exit a trade at the price you want. Instead, it's important to look for a broker that offers high levels of liquidity, low spreads and the ability to execute orders at the price you want (or as close to this as possible).
There are a number of reasons why people choose to start day trading. Some of these reasons might include the potential to earn extra money on the side from the comfort of their own home, the opportunity to learn a new skill in their own time, or even the dream of achieving financial freedom, and having more control over their financial future. When it comes to Forex specifically though, there are a number of benefits that make this financial instrument a very enticing one to trade.
In this view, countries may develop unsustainable economic bubbles or otherwise mishandle their national economies, and foreign exchange speculators made the inevitable collapse happen sooner. A relatively quick collapse might even be preferable to continued economic mishandling, followed by an eventual, larger, collapse. Mahathir Mohamad and other critics of speculation are viewed as trying to deflect the blame from themselves for having caused the unsustainable economic conditions.
Forex trading for beginners can be especially tough. This is mostly due to unrealistic expectations that are common among newcomers. What you need to know is that currency trading is by no means a get-rich-quick scheme. On this page, you will receive an introduction to the Forex market, how it works, and key terminology, along with the benefits of trading different currencies.
Controversy about currency speculators and their effect on currency devaluations and national economies recurs regularly. Economists, such as Milton Friedman, have argued that speculators ultimately are a stabilizing influence on the market, and that stabilizing speculation performs the important function of providing a market for hedgers and transferring risk from those people who don't wish to bear it, to those who do.[79] Other economists, such as Joseph Stiglitz, consider this argument to be based more on politics and a free market philosophy than on economics.[80]
4 Months of Consistent Profit… I took this picture of the member's chat last week. I get messages/emails like this every week and I'm going to do a better job of making sure I share them. The fact is, learning to trade and getting to the point of profitability is very difficult. Seeing other traders who have made it to the point of consistent profitability should not only serve as
Hedge funds – Somewhere around 70 to 90% of all foreign exchange transactions are speculative in nature. This means, the person or institutions that bought or sold the currency has no plan of actually taking delivery of the currency; instead, the transaction was executed with sole intention of speculating on the price movement of that particular currency. Retail speculators (you and I) are small cheese compared to the big hedge funds that control and speculate with billions of dollars of equity each day in the currency markets.

" The best coworking space you'll find "
Quite simply, this place is wonderful. The people that work here make your stay enjoyable. Nothing is too much trouble and everything just works as you need it to and when you need it. Add to that the lively schedule of events they put on, and this is a coworking community that stands out from the crowd. If this place doesn't make you want to go to work, then nowhere will.

"A fun, friendly place for focused work and serendipitous connections"
I love the way Platform 9 has been designed. It combines the feeling of being at home with the buzz of a thriving community. Whether you just want to get your head down; find space to think creatively or connect with interesting people then Plarform 9 does this in spades. Being in the heart of Brighton and Hove also means it's super convenient place to get to and to have meetings. The regular events they host on diverse subjects and topics that aren't only about business mean that you can really achieve a great work-life blend. A must coworking venuew for creative souls with business brains.

"Great, friendly atmosphere and by far the best co-working space I've ever been to."
I've worked in several co-working spaces both in Brighton and internationally and Platf9rm is by far the best. The staff are always so friendly and couldn't be more helpful. I've made some great friends through their social events which are always loads of fun. As a recruiter I spend a fair amount of time on the phone which is manageable with their private phone booths one of which you can book out BUT if you spend all day on the phone I'd say the co-working space isn't ideal so maybe put your name down for a private office. Overall, I love it here and would highly recommend it to anyone who struggles a bit to work from home.

The relationships of Ron Stoppable.
Zita Flores
Ron's crush in early Season 2; she might have been his first girlfriend. However, sometime prior to graduation from high school, Zita is implied to be dating Ron's best male friend, Felix Renton.
Addressed in "The New Ron", "Animal Attraction", and "Ron Millionaire". In "The New Ron", Amelia crushed on Ron because of his new hairdo. When he lost the haircut, he lost Amelia's interest. Ron got excited in "Animal Attraction" when he found out that Animology said that Amelia was his soulmate. Ron was also seen flirting with Amelia in "Ron Millionaire".
Tara is the most well-known of Ron's love interests, with the exception of Kim and Yori. Tara is one of the many girls that gazed at Ron in "The New Ron". Unlike the others, she saw Ron's true self afterwards, and she apparently liked what she saw. Another indication that Tara liked Ron was seen in "Number One", where Bonnie buys new cheerleading outfits to win the team over; Tara refers to the uniforms as "badical", a term which Ron is more known for using. She even kissed him on the cheek in "Sink or Swim" after he rescued the cheerleading squad from Gill the mutant; that was the first kiss seen on the show.
Yori, is a student of the Yamanouchi ninja school in Japan, who had a crush on Ron. After Kim, she appears to be the most popular of Ron's romantic interests. In "Exchange", Ron was shown repeatedly to be interested in Yori, both at their first meeting where he was stunned by her appearance, and again later when he informed Fukushima that he will be the one to save and win the pretty girl's affections. However, Ron was not aware of her affection for him until she was leaving at the end of their second meeting; even after Yori kissed his cheek while leaving, Ron didn't fully recognize that she "liked me liked me" until Kim explained it to him. On their third meeting, Ron told her of his newly-formed relationship with Kim, which she accepted with good grace. Kim has repeatedly displayed jealousy towards Yori, possibly due to Kim's belief that Yori is her greatest competitor for Ron's affections.
Bonnie Rockwaller
Bonnie has shown be attracted to Ron in a few episodes such as "Ron Millionaire" where when she was immediately attracted to Ron when he got his Naco Royalty check and "Homecoming Upset" where Ron is elected Homecoming King and she is elected Queen.
Kim Possible
The eponymous star of the show and Ron's best friend; at the end of Season 3, they became boyfriend and girlfriend. Throughout the series, it was hinted quite regularly that Kim and Ron would eventually come to date each other. This was made fun of in the episode "Bad Boy", in which Kim and Ron, while watching a soap opera, say "Oh, please! Are they still teasing that Charity and Danny are gonna get together?" "Like that's ever gonna happen, it would end the series!" Little awkward moments between the two became common during their multi-gender relationship. One example of this is that Kim first gave Ron a kiss on the cheek under a mistletoe in "A Very Possible Christmas". The directors of the show, as stated in an interview, had chosen to couple Kim and Ron so as to impart the moral, "give geeks a chance." Kim and Ron had a very durable friendship before their romantic involvement in So the Drama. This is suspected by some fans to be a type of maxim communicating the idea a strong friendship should first precede a relationship. As of Season 4, Kim and Ron are dating. It was believed by some fans the addition of the element of romance would be a positive thing, although some others were opposed to it and feared it might cause the show to jump the shark (during the episode "Ill Suited" the show makes reference to this when Ron asks Kim if she had ever water skied over a shark, as in a dream he had). Schooley and McCorkle noted the potential risk, admitting that while Kim and Ron's blossoming love gave them a chance to do something new with the characters, the relationship had to be handled delicately to avoid turning the series stale. In the episode "Clean Slate", Kim acknowledged that she loved Ron. The fact that her impending death (but she didn't die) spurred him to destroy their adversaries in "Graduation", would illustrate the fact that this love is indeed mutual; the ending of the series finale heavily implies that Kim and Ron's relationship will endure.
Monkey Fist
One of his main foes and archenemy is Lord Monkey Fist. Once a respected archaeologist and expert on all things Simian, Lord Monty Fiske turned to evil and tricked Kim and Ron into helping him recover a jade monkey statue from a temple in Cambodia. He spent the family fortune on radical genetic mutation, which was revealed in the Season 2 episode "Partners" to be the work of DNAmy. He is a master of Tai Sheng Pek Kwar, also known as Monkey Kung Fu. In his debut episode, "Monkey Fist Strikes", he succeeded in his goal of obtaining the mystical monkey power and changed his name from Monty Fiske to Monkey Fist in an appropriately ironic anagram. Ever since their first encounter, Monkey Fist has considered Ron his greatest/arch-enemy, although he once told him, "You're not an arch-foe, you're an arch-bumbler!", showing that he get frustrated every time he loses to Ron. He, Ron, and Rufus are the only ones who possess the Mystical Monkey Power, although Ron's adopted sister Hana is implied to have it as well.
Ron has not actually fought Monkey Fist in a one-on-one battle since their first encounter. In many ways, Ron and Monkey Fist have a similar relationship and similar personalities to that of Shego and Kim. In the one episode where Ron and Monkey Fist fought directly, Ron displayed ability he rarely shown in any other episode. Of all of Kim and Ron's adversaries, Monkey Fist alone is able to remember Ron's name most of the time, something which Ron has admitted he respects.
As Season 4 draws to a close, Monkey Fist is reverted into a stone statue after he gives up his 'destiny,' to follow the path of The Yono, and is unable to free himself as of Ron's graduation from high school. Presumably, this is the first time a recurring enemy appeared to have been "killed off". Although others, including Kim, were turned to stone by The Yono and were not dead, so Fiske's final fate is actually open-ended.
Dr. Drakken
While Drakken is clearly Kim's arch-foe, it almost always seems to be Ron that he ends up duking it out with in battle. Still, even if their fights have never been truly epic confrontations, like Señor Senior Jr., Drakken has proven to be one villain that Ron can actually manage quite handily without the use of his Mystical Monkey Power. In "A Very Possible Christmas", the two of them got into a long standing battle which resulted in Drakken being unable to go the distance with him. Also, in So the Drama, when Ron prevents Drakken's escape, incensed at him for using Bueno Nacho as a pawn in his "L'il Diablo" scheme. Drakken actually fears for his safety, knowing full well that Ron is capable of beating him up if he wants to, and Ron even managed to get him to finally say his name, although after that he forgot his name as always.
Ron displayed arguably his greatest example of monkey kung fu in his battle with Fukushima. Throughout the episode, Fukushima taunted and humiliated Ron referring to him as "Outsider" and constantly tried to cause him injury. During the first encounter between them, Ron was able to hold his own in a staff sparring session between them. In the second, Fukushima's blows constantly missed the dodging Ron who used his famous leg twist to bring down Fukushima, catching and flinging him when he launched himself at Ron and finally causing a minor earthquake with his Mystical Monkey Powers to bring down icicles and trap Fukushima taunting him with "It was my honor to defeat you!"
Gil Moss
One of his 2 main foes is his childhood bully Gil Moss. During their time at Camp Wannaweep, Ron, afraid of the polluted water in Lake Wannaweep, allowed the bullying Gil Moss to have his turn at swimming time in the lake, while Ron took Gil's arts and crafts sessions. The extra time Gil spent in the lake resulted in him transforming into a hideous sea monster, Gill. Ron has battled Gill twice, once alone and once with assistance from Kim, each ending with Ron victorious. The second continued a series running gag of Ron being transformed or altered, in this case being mutated by a toxic lagoon off of Lake Wannaweep into a large man-beaver. While Monkey Fist has some small grudging respect for Ron, Gill has only disrespect and hatred, referring to him dismissively as "Ronnie" or "squeeb". Although Monkey Fist is credit as his arch-foe, Gill is the only villain who has a desire to get revenge on Ron.
Señor Senior Jr.
While hardly a major villain in the series as a whole, Jr. and Ron have gotten into physical confrontations on more than one occasion. Mostly, these face offs were about minor things, like hair combs or parking spaces. Still, despite being so muscular, Jr. is one opponent that Ron has surprisingly proven to be a physical match for, even without Ron's Mystical Monkey Power assisting him. However, none of their "battles" have ever resulted in a clear winner, mostly because their conflicts have ended up being cut short by third parties.
Warhok and Warmonga
Arguably, these two can be considered arch-foes of Ron's after they make the critical mistake of threatening Kim's life in his presence. Realizing that he is about to lose the most important person in his life, and aided by Sensei's encouragement through a vision, Ron taps into his Mystical Monkey Powers to take on the aliens. This time he has full control of his powers and is rendered unstoppable. In the end, he tosses the two into their crashing spaceship, causing a huge explosion that presumably destroys them, although that was unconfirmed. This is also the second time in the series after Monkey Fist that an enemy appears to have been killed by a main character.

After recent market declines, some FTSE 250 shares are now trading at levels not seen since the financial crisis. This could be an excellent opportunity to snap up shares in these businesses at a discount price.
With that in mind, here are two FTSE 250 shares that have fallen 50% and could make attractive investments.
FTSE 250 shares offer value
Shares in pub group J D Wetherspoon (LSE: JDW) have taken a hammering over the past two weeks. Investors are rightly worried about the impact the Covid-19 outbreak will have on trade across the group.
These worries have proven to be well-founded. Towards the end of last week, the company cancelled its dividend and informed investors that said sales dropped significantly after the government asked people to avoid pubs, restaurants and theatres to curb the spread of the virus.
Nevertheless, the group also stated that it has enough financial liquidity to maintain operations.
Over the past few years, Wetherspoon's has been reducing debt and buying out the freeholders of its properties to reduce spending on leases. This puts the company in a great financial position to weather the storm.
And when the market does recover, Wetherspoon's should roar back. The company's low-priced offering appeals to customers in tough economic times. It looks as if we're heading for those right now.
When the company's earnings recover the level reported in 2019, the stock could more than double from current levels. That's based on the fact that the stock has previously commanded a price-to-earnings multiple in the mid-teens.
As such, the risk/reward ratio of buying the stock at current levels appears attractive.
Deep discount
Another hospitality stock that looks deeply undervalued at current levels is Marston's (LSE: MARS).
Like Wetherspoon's, Marston's also owns a lot of property, but the market seems to be overlooking this fact.
Right now, the stock is trading at just 30% of book value. This figure suggests the business could be worth 200% more than its current market capitalisation if it was broken up and sold. That does not make much sense, which is why it looks as if this is one of the cheapest FTSE 250 shares out there.
It is true that, like Wetherspoon's, Marston's is also suffering from a decline in trade.
Nevertheless, the company's strong balance sheet, as well as a reputation among customers, should help it make a quick recovery when the economy eventually returns to normal.
When it does, the business can restore its 7.5p per share dividend. This suggests investors buying today could be in line for a dividend yield of 28.6%.
Put simply, while it looks as if Marston's is facing much uncertainty in the short term, the company's long run investment potential is highly attractive.
