This blog post was originally published on ZS's high-tech blog, Tech Bytes & Insights.
As high-tech manufacturers strive to accelerate profitable growth, they're looking to their channel partners to provide more value to end customers. Successful technology channel partners are transforming their business models accordingly, transitioning from providing value primarily by distributing products to providing business solutions that are delivered in sync with customers' changing buying and consumption preferences. Executing this transformation doesn't just require partners to change. High-tech manufacturers must change as well to enable their partners to expand their capabilities. The need to help partners increase their effectiveness has significant implications for channel sales teams.
Following ZS's 2017 Comp Bytes event, where executives from leading high-tech brands met to discuss sales compensation challenges and innovations, I caught up with Rick Butler, senior director of sales compensation center of excellence at Cisco, to discuss shifts in the company's channel sales strategy, how high-tech channel partners have to adapt to customers' changing needs, and the biggest untapped opportunities in channel sales incentives and compensation.
Q: Over the last decade or so, Cisco has transitioned from being a provider of networking infrastructure, primarily routers and switches, to a solutions provider with a broad portfolio of hardware, software and services. What has this change meant for the channel sales organization?
A: Companies like ours recognize that these days, technology buyers are less interested in addressing narrow IT issues with point solutions. They are focused on solving complex business problems with business solutions. To meet customer needs, we and our partners often must integrate multiple products and provide a broad array of services. We have always focused on providing the best networking infrastructure like routers and switches. We're well past that now, not only in what the company delivers, but in what the marketplace demands of us. Today, Cisco and our partners provide value by helping our customers transform their businesses by utilizing our broad portfolio of products and services. Our channel sales approach has had to evolve to support partners that serve our customers in this way.
Q: As you put it, the new objective is to solve business problems with business solutions. How has that impacted channel partners?
A: Well, it depends. Many partners are transforming their businesses to build new expertise and capabilities. Others are slower to adapt. Partners who started as traditional resellers or distributors were initially focused on selling "things." Now, as opposed to just selling "things," they have to understand a client's business and the problem they're trying to solve, and then bring the solution to the table. Successful channel partners have invested to build teams that can do this well.
Q: So the channel partners are at different points of this evolution, and some are moving faster than others. What are the implications of this trend on the channel sales team?
A: Our role in supporting our partners is evolving. In the past, the primary focus was on making sure the partners had the products they needed to fulfill orders. Now we are more focused on enabling partners to be more successful with their business strategy. We have a different relationship. We want to help partners understand and capitalize on market trends so that they can better identify customer opportunities and bring more value to the table. Our channel sales team works with our partners to understand how they want to grow their businesses and how to maximize their relationship with Cisco.
Q: At Comp Bytes, you noted that you think the industry is still struggling to capitalize on the demand for cloud services. How is Cisco utilizing channel sales and partner incentives to tackle this issue?
A: To be successful in cloud services, channel partners typically need to invest to shift their business model and build new sales and delivery capabilities. We provide enablement capabilities, incentives and support to help partners do this. Partners earn higher discounts for achieving certain objectives, such as hitting volume targets, achieving certifications, selling a broader portfolio of products, or providing a higher level of services. In this way, we reward partners who invest to build their businesses. We also help partners promote new capabilities by providing financial incentives such as market development funds. Our channel sales teams help partners utilize these incentives and support.
Q: What do you think is the biggest untapped opportunity for high-tech manufacturers when it comes to channel sales incentives and compensation?
A: Well, it's important to first determine where the growth opportunities are in the partner/channel ecosystem. High-tech manufacturers should continuously evaluate their channel to determine where it makes sense to invest, looking beyond sales volume to other factors that indicate growth potential, such as the industry they're in, who their clients are, what the partners' current portfolios look like, and whether their offerings are or will be unique. Then consider what value you, as a manufacturer, can bring to help the partners grow. The goal is to find situations where one plus one equals three. Once these situations are known, then incentives and compensation should be structured to encourage channel sales to focus on the right partners, the right products and the right level of support.

Herod had married her; and John had told him, "It is not right for you to live with your brother's wife." So Herodias held a grudge against John and wanted to kill him; but she could not, because Herod respected John. He knew John to be an upright and holy man, and kept him safe. And he liked listening to him; although he became very disturbed whenever he heard him. Herodias had her chance on Herod's birthday, when he gave a dinner for all the senior government officials, military chiefs, and the leaders of Galilee. On that occasion, the daughter of Herodias came in and danced; and she delighted Herod and his guests.The king said to the girl, "Ask me for anything you want and I will give it to you." And he went so far as to say with many oaths, "I will give you anything you ask, even half my kingdom." She went out and said to her mother, "What shall I ask for?" The mother replied, "The head of John the Baptist." The girl hurried to the king and made her request, "I want you to give me the head of John the Baptist, here and now, on a dish." The king was very displeased, but he would not refuse in front of his guests because of his oaths. So he sent one of the bodyguards, with orders to bring John's head. He went and beheaded John in prison; then he brought the head on a dish and gave it to the girl. And the girl gave it to her mother. When John's disciples heard of this, they came and took his body and buried it.
"He would not refuse in front of his guests because of his oaths."
This grotesque story reveals much about the psychology of a tyrant. While holding the lives of others in his hands, he is constantly attuned to any threat to his power—wary of displaying signs of weakness that could cast doubt on his potency and thus encourage enemies. John the Baptist poses a different sort of threat. Yet Herod hesitates to move against a man of God. The gospel text assigns blame for John's death to Herod's wife— who has her own reason to resent the prophet. Yet there is some thing psychologically apt about the "strong man" who is more worried about the consequences of violating a besotted oath than he is about the sin of murder. No wonder he is troubled when he hears reports of Jesus, wondering perhaps whether his victim has not returned to haunt him.This story may seem to apply only to warlords, gang leaders, and crime bosses. But there is a much more common sort of corruption—even in the church—that occurs whenever we are more concerned with appearances and reputation, or the fear of exposing "scandal" than we are about the truth or about protecting the weak and vulnerable.

5 Ways to Prevent a Fluorescent Light Migraine
Describing a migraine as "a bad headache" is an understatement, to say the least. Anyone who's experienced it, especially if it's chronic, knows how painful and disruptive it is to your everyday life. Since it goes hand in hand with light sensitivity, fluorescent light poses an unusual threat to migraine sufferers. Here are five ways to prevent this type of painful migraine.
Steer Clear of Blue Lights
Revamping the lighting in your home and workspace can make a huge difference when it comes to migraine relief. Consider changing your light bulbs to blue-blocking bulbs; experts say that blue light appears to be a more threatening migraine trigger. Also, try to use soft-lit lamps more frequently than harsh overhead lights.
Opt for Natural Light Whenever Possible
The American Migraine Foundation recommends, for example, sitting next to a window rather than sitting under bright fluorescent lights. You can also try gradually increasing your exposure to bright light in order to slowly build up your tolerance.
Consider a Blue Light Filter for Your Electronics
Since computers and other electronic devices often emit blue light, you might want to consider getting some sort of screen protector that blocks it out. Alternatively, you can go with specialty blue light lenses that can be worn both indoors and outdoors, which essentially does the same job. Just be sure they're precision tinted FL-41 lenses; these filter this kind of light best.
Don't Wear Regular Sunglasses Indoors
Also known as photophobia, migraines brought on by light sensitivity are particularly painful. While it may sound counterintuitive, the American Academy of Ophthalmology actually suggests not wearing sunglasses while inside because it will likely make your light sensitivity worse. If being indoors means being assaulted by blue light, go with the tinted FL-41 lenses mentioned above.
Make Sure Your Light Sensitivity Stems from Migraines
Photophobia, while a hallmark of migraines, is also associated with other medical conditions that present with similar symptoms. Depending on the situation, it may warrant an alternative course of treatment. Neurological conditions like meningitis and pituitary tumors, for instance, also cause severe light sensitivity, as does a movement disorder called blepharospasm. The best treatment begins with an accurate diagnosis, so seek out an ophthalmologist before assuming that migraines are the culprit.
Pain Stop North Phoenix offers a wide array of effective, non-surgical migraine treatments in Phoenix, from massage therapy to chiropractic care and more. Call 602-899-5107 today to schedule a free consultation to create a comprehensive, individualized treatment plan just for you.

As China gets heat, foreigners feel the chill
May 1, 2008
Hospitality gives way to wariness, anger
By Edward Cody
Washington Post
April 30, 2008
BEIJING - At an airport in northeast China, a young security guard
recently spotted a foreign airline passenger with shaving cream in his
carry-on bag. "No," he said sternly, wagging his finger like a cross
schoolteacher. "No, no, no."
In a country where airport security is unfailingly polite and efficient,
the guard's stiff attitude spoke volumes.
Just weeks ago, most Chinese were welcoming foreigners as Olympic guests
and partners in the country's meteoric economic development. But as the
country enters the final 100 days before the Olympic Games in Beijing,
the mood has changed. Many Chinese have begun to regard foreigners as
adversaries interfering in domestic affairs or, at worst, bigots
unwilling to accept China's emergence as a great power.
The Olympic torch left China only a month ago on what was billed as "a
journey of harmony." Instead, the torch became a moving target for
protesters worldwide. The focus of most demonstrations was China's
crackdown against the Tibetans who rioted March 14 in Lhasa. Other
protesters criticized China's role in the Darfur conflict. By the time
the torch was paraded Sunday in Seoul, poor treatment of North Korean
refugees was added to Beijing's list of sins.
The government's reaction to the unexpected avalanche of criticism was
shrill. It described the protesters as "separatist elements" and claimed
that they were seeking the breakup of the country, perhaps as part of a
conspiracy. It railed at foreign media coverage, accusing reporters and
editors of unspecified "ulterior motives."
The coordinated campaign was framed in an us-and-them mode, sharply at
odds with the spirit of the Olympics, whose slogan is "One World, One
Dream." The party's official newspaper, People's Daily, ran an editorial
last week suggesting Chinese should be confident enough in their own
greatness to rise above the criticism. The headline was a Chinese
aphorism that means roughly, "A gentleman does not worry about the dogs
yapping at his heels."
The circle-the-wagons approach found a ready audience in China. A recent
survey by a Beijing polling group indicated that more than 80 percent of
those questioned believed Western news media were conveying a biased
image of China abroad.
"The Chinese people do not like outsiders to make comments on China's
domestic affairs," said Victor Yuan, who runs the polling group,
Horizon. "They think it's their business, not your business."
Meanwhile, a fervidly nationalistic campaign flared online, as Internet
users suggested that foreigners were bigoted against China and that
Western businesses should be boycotted. Demonstrators gathered in front
of stores run by Carrefour, the French superstore chain, in several
cities around the country.
Carrefour received special criticism because Chinese bloggers spread
reports that its owners had donated money to India-based Tibetan exile
groups run by the Dalai Lama. The firm's headquarters in Paris denied
that was true, but the bloggers paid no heed.
Chinese Internet censors, who control what people say online, did
nothing to dampen the fervor. And police, who prevent most
demonstrations, blocked protesters from reaching the French Embassy in
Beijing but otherwise allowed the outraged youths to vent their fury.
A Chinese woman working for The Washington Post was pushed around at one
such demonstration by young Chinese men who suggested she should be
careful about working with a foreign publication. An American man who
showed up at another Carrefour store for some shopping was roughed up as
well, perhaps on the mistaken assumption he was French.
In recent days, Chinese authorities have sought to pull back the
nationalist tide. Editorials in the controlled press suggested to youths
that carrying out their assigned tasks is the best way to demonstrate
patriotism. Internet censors started blocking items with the word Carrefour.
Yuan said his poll findings do not suggest the current troubles over
Tibet and the torch will last long enough to generate an unfriendly
atmosphere during the Olympics. Similarly nationalistic protests against
Japan two years ago have long since faded from the screen, he noted.
"Maybe during the Games Chinese spectators will boo the French teams,
but they will not overreact," he said.
Behind the public mood, however, has come a simultaneous tightening of
security that officials say is likely to last until after the Games. It,
too, has contributed to the change in atmosphere.
Foreign residents of the capital report that police have started
checking their identification cards and passports with greater
regularity, in some cases visiting homes and offices to do so. According
to Chinese law, foreigners should always have their passports with them,
but the rule has been allowed to lapse in recent years as the number of
foreigners working here increased.
But perhaps nowhere is the new mood more palpable than in Tibet, a
premier tourist destination that has been closed off to foreigners since
March 14. As a result of the ban, most foreign journalists have been
barred from covering the torch relay through Tibet, including plans for
a photogenic climb up Mount Everest. Nine foreign newspapers and
broadcasters have been allowed in to cover part of the relay, but only
for 10 days in a carefully shepherded trip.

In the past few weeks, I have had many reminders that joy is a choice . . . and that joy is not always easy.
This is a lesson that sometimes has to be taught to children. My kids have now been in school for three weeks, and a couple of mine have had bad attitudes about some of the work they have to do. They don't like their vocab. They don't see why they have to write so many essays for health. I remind them that they can decide to have a bad attitude or just get their work done. This is life. We might as well go through it and decide to do it with a good attitude.
Martin Lloyd Jones said:
We all desire to be happy. That is something that is innate in human nature; nobody wants to be miserable, though I am aware of the fact that there are people who seem to enjoy being miserable and some who seem to find their happiness in being unhappy!
I know I don't want my children to grow up to be unhappy when they should be happy! This is a learned condition of contentment. Paul says so in Philippians 4:11: Not that I speak in respect of want: for I have learned, in whatsoever state I am, therewith to be content.
We have to teach our children to be content with what they have. That God has given them everything they need, and so much more. They can be happy, and they don't need to complain. One way that we can teach this condition of contentment is by modeling it; therefore, we must make sure that we are not complaining and that we are content with where God has placed us and what He has given us.
However, sometimes, life is hard. Terrible things happen to good people.
Our Sunday School lessons the past couple of weeks have been on trials and temptations. At the same time, our family devotions have been on choosing joy. One night this past week, my husband read in our family's devotion a short devotional called "The Choice to Be Happy." While he was reading the devotional, I was thinking of my friend who lost her husband last year in an unexpected accident, and then just lost her main helper to an unexpected massive stroke. This lady that died helped her take care of her four young kids, was considered to be "grandma status" by her children, and gave her the encouragement and strength she needed on the hard days.
Can she choose to be joyful during this trial?
The devotional went on to quote some verses:
- My brethren, count it all joy when ye fall into divers temptations; (or trials) James 1:2
- Rejoice in the Lord always: and again I say, Rejoice. Philippians 4:4
- Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid. John 14:27
In an earlier devotion about choosing joy, the author says,
All good gifts come from God, including joy. But God still invites us to participate in receiving His gifts and blessings through our own free will. We can't save ourselves, but we must say yes to salvation. We can't walk worthy of His calling on our own, but we can say yes to His strength through simple obedience. And we can't force ourselves to be joyful. But we can say yes to God's kind and delightful offering by saying yes through our attitudes.
Have you chosen joy for your life? For today?
So in the day-to-day disappointments of life where we want to complain, we need to instead choose contentment. In the trials of life that seem to overwhelm us, we need to purposefully count it all joy. To go to God's Word and rejoice — even if we don't feel like it. In fact, Paul stresses this in Philippians 4:4. He says, "again I say, Rejoice!" Hard to do? Yes. Impossible? No! Because whatever God commands, He also gives us the strength to do and the Holy Spirit to aid and succor. He promises His peace when it seems like our hearts should be troubled. Do we avail ourselves of that peace is the question?
I choose joy.
I will invite my God to be the God of circumstance.
I will refuse to see any problem as anything less than an opportunity to see God.

The effect of a facial difference goes well beyond appearance: it can lead to social isolation, low self esteem, severe depression, and functional difficulty in seeing, hearing, breathing, eating, and speaking. In addition to reconstructive surgery, children with facial differences require years of multiple pre-operative procedures, orthodontic treatment, post-operative treatment, secondary surgery, and counseling.

We all know that eating is the all in one package that can bring us to the pink of health. There are certain foods which are harmful to the body but their ill effects are hidden by their delicious taste or enticing aroma. Avoiding these foods can even do some good to your health.
Here the seven of the most common foods [and drinks] which can be beneficial to you if you avoid them:
1. Sugar
Sugar can be classified as a poison which gives your body no nutritional value. Eating foods rich in sugar can give you a quick energy boost, but you have to pay for it with an energy low that follows. Sugar is also associated with lots of illnesses like obesity and diabetes.
2. Caffeine
Caffeine is a quick energy booster which can also cause quick energy low when its effect diminishes. There are certain beverages and energy drinks that are loaded with caffeine. They should be avoided because they can cause health problems when used overtime.
3. Wheat and gluten-containing foods
Wheat is the primary source of gluten. It can contribute to obesity, pain in the urinary track system and it can cause difficulty in concentrating. You should avoid or keep your wheat intake in the minimum in order to avoid future health problems.
Oats, rye and barley are among the foods that you should be on your watch list because of the gluten content. There are lots of harmful effects that gluten can bring to the body. It includes the irreversible damage of the lining of the small intestines.
4. Alcohol
Alcohol is a substance that should be taken in moderation because of its harmful effects like dehydration, depression and brain damage.
5. Yeast
Yeast in food should be avoided because it can lead to the overgrowth of yeast in the digestive tract. Yeast overgrowth or Candida is an important player in many illnesses because it produces toxic chemicals which are absorbed by the body. It can also lead to the permanent activation of the immune system which is harmful to your health.

Young Hollywood are notorious for their beautiful relationships, but as we all know they seldom last. Here's the hottest new couples of the moment!
Justin Bieber and Hailey Baldwin
These two started out as friends with Hailey being a huge Belieber for many years. She is the daughter of Stephen Baldwin which helped her become a Ford model, doing campaigns with the likes of Ralph Lauren and Topshop. They were rumoured to be dating for quite a while before making it official with a New Years Eve kiss.
Zayn Malik and Gigi Hadid
It was less than four months after breaking off his relationship from Little Mix's Perrie Edwards that Malik began dating Gigi Hadid. She is the daughter of real housewife Yolanda Foster and works as a high profile model. With her star on the rise and Malik's upcoming solo release, this pair may end up being the new Britney and Justin.
Harry Styles and Kendall Jenner
These two hit the headlines in 2013 when they were spotted out on a string of dates for a short period. After that the buzz seemed to die down, until now. The pair were spotted on a yacht in the Caribbean on New Years Day frolicking in the sea and making out on deck. They seem to be more serious this time around as both of their mothers joined them! Given the nature of this family who knows if this is a stunt.
Liam Hemsworth and Miley Cyrus
This couple made serious waves when they broke off their engagement in 2013 after being together for five years. The breakup seemed to catapult her bad girl image in which she wrote several songs about the Hunger Games actor. Fans spotted the couple out and about on NYE where he skipped out on his families party to spend it with his ex-beau.
Niall Horan and Selena Gomez
We posted about these two last month, it seems the 1D guys are doing well with the ladies this year! Perhaps going on hiatus has left the boys more time to pursue romantic relationships. Also, it's kind of awesome all of their girlfriends (and awkwardly Biebs partner) are all in the same friendship group. This could be one of the greatest years for messy young Hollywood!
Brooklyn Beckham and Sonia Ben Ammar
The son of two colossal stars David and Victoria, Brooklyn has been spending his time off from school liaising with stars and gaining over 1million followers. Sonia is a french actress who is also 16-years-old. The youngest on the list, this couple has been together since the tail-end of last year.
Georgia May Foote and Giovanni Pernice
During their time on Strictly Come Dancing, this duo vehemently denied their relationship was anything but professional, yet fans spotted the couple kissing and exhibiting excessive PDA while on a New Years trip to Disneyland, Paris. The ex-Coronation Street actress is thought to have broken up with her boyfriend of eight months to pursue the seasoned dancer.

A technological revolution
In 2005, Dr. Robert Grubbs, Dr. Richard Schrok and Dr. Yves Chauvin were awarded the Nobel Prize in Chemistry for olefin metathesis. The discovery has seen many applications since the 90s, thanks to its selectivity and its ability to make complex chemical reactions easy.
Olefin metathesis entails the redistribution of alkene fragments (olefins) by the scission and regeneration of carbon-carbon double bonds. The technology has become a key element in synthesis strategies for the construction of many organic compounds and the production of materials such as polymers and fine chemicals
A new generation of catalysts
Marc Mauduit, co-founder of Demeta, joined the Ecole Nationale Supérieure de Chimie in Rennes, where he began his research, in 2001. His work led to the discovery of this new generation of olefin metathesis catalysts, which are highly selective and cost-competitive.

"If math walks through the door, I jump out of the window".
Acha's one liner at my 3rd grade Parents Teacher Meeting remains fresh as his ironed shirt. This is due to two reasons. The meeting was the first of the three PTM's he has ever attended. Also, this was the only math exam where I was the topper, got 99 out of 100.
My belief for the long time was that the math gods were angry at me for something I said in 4thgrade. I said EVS and Social Science was more fun to learn to a math topper. It has been a steady downhill since then. Acha wasn't good in math as well. Infact I think he is worse than the taxation system. But he tried teaching me the concept of greater and lesser sign. "Mono, the crocodile's mouth opened this way means it is greater". At the end of the day, he realised the power of genetics is greatest.
I wish I can describe my relationship with the subject to be like Kajol and SRK in DDLJ. But, it is actually like the one in Baazigar. I play the naïve, loyal and trusting Shilpa Shetty and Math plays the smart and charming guy SRK. Everything seems to be going well but I am later pushed down the terrace.
The first confrontation with the subject which I thought loved me more than pi's decimal places was in grade 6. I met this weird concept called Algebra. The first day it was taught, my teacher said "Listen Carefully, this is important and if you don't understand today, don't blame me". I actually concentrated in the class. But algebra turned out to be chemical X. Just like how it turned Jojo into MojoJojo. It turned me into the creature who could feel the brain burst out, eyes going red, green, black and the ability to trash a concept.
The probability of winning an argument against ammais 0.8 and silently it always looks like she has admitted defeat. She would grind her teeth and mutter, "PTM ondallo, appo nokkam" (PTM is there, we shall see then). PTM has been a mutual trump card. Despite all the excellent remarks and good scores, math would hold the key on who is winning the final battle.
And Amma usually ends up winning the final bout without breaking a sweat. The process of running away fails as you are cornered. The only time you wish you were part of a circle. Revenge is a dish best served in bad marks and the cold reactions. The parachutes of all the other good things fails to open and I am caught.
Did I die? No, I get stuck in amma'swords. Not the right asylum to be after she sees your report card. Till 11ththe marks I scored weren't bad, but comparing to the rest of the scores in other subjects, it was a drain. An eye-sore to my parents, it would be noted down in a small black book.
The small black book contains the list of violations. In my case, the violations are the bad marks scored. No surprises to guess who is the M.V.P here. Few years down the line, amma had given up. No places to put in the new bad marks. My existing ones are still providing enough material to say that I am not serious in this subject and also induce stress.
"Some people have curly brown hair through proper brushing". No, this wasn't hair styling tips. 'This was a powerful mantra that is believed to save you from trigonometry problems', that's what my teacher said in a really sweet voice. I believed her. But this concept of trigonometry was weird and by the time I finished saying the word, we moved on to the next topic. Trigo as everyone calls not because of love but just laziness in saying the name makes a guest appearance in my future problems. I would be excited for a second before realising not knowing trigo is the main reason I am stuck.
This was also the point where I was introduced to a man who was very close in replacing math has my enemy. Mr VR is the anti-thesis of Mark Thackeray. Whatever interest I had would be vaporised by this man's presence. With a deep, soulless voice, he would ask me to problems. Doing my way basically means my notebook would be thrown towards the highway. For him, NCERT books were his gita, bible and quran. Anything against it is illogical and deserved prosecution in the marks I get for the problems. While I try to reach the hyperbola in my life, reaching for the ends of the graph. He changes it to a parabola and side-lines me easily due to the power of Rs 5 red pen.
But my sworn enemy, the one that has rattled my family tree for decades. The one who has sworn to bring my grades down was the infamous brothers, Differentiation and Integration. I visualised them as a family of mafias. The family living far away in the land of dimensions and complex problems. Screw up with one relative, the other relatives take the revenge for you. Knowing the plans laid out for me. I approached R.D. Sharma and R.S. Agarwal. Out of desperation, even watched that annoying YouTube guy. He usually barges me with 10thgrade math concepts when all I want to do was watch Actor Vijay doing a mass entry for Nthtime. But those guys were as useful as a water heater in summer.
On the other hand, they were good stands to keep your iPad and read. Sometimes they take up the role of a pillow. But never the task of teaching me math. Just because I use it as a stand doesn't mean I didn't attempt learning. I did. I stalked all the formulas so much so if mathematicians make a movie. I would have been the next sensation in the world of cinema. Tried understanding the example problems to impress the exercise question so that I can ask the model paper out on a date. But, I got slapped by the example questions and relegated myself to the friend-zone.
Stress continued to climb up steadily. I made papers longer than our grocery shopping list consisting of formulas. Did numerous problems that if my solutions were right I would have achieved world peace. Nothing worked when I sat in front of the board exam paper. I remembered a part of acha'swords. 'Jump out of the window'. But if I did proceed with that I will not be allowed to enter big doors with dignity. And I wrote what turned out to be the most incongruous symphony of all time. I did pass and scored enough but the symphony notes could not only damage ears but also hurt hearts. Ammawon the battle but lost the war.
Done with the subject, I broke off my ties by having numerous one-task stands with calculators but psychology had other plans. Now, I use the formula of standard derivation to find out the mean value. If only, I can use it to find the mean on how much both of us love or hate each other.

That's right, you can save THOUSANDS of dollars. I know, sounds impossible and you are waiting for the punchline or for me to tell you to invest in something that will have huge gains. Nope! That's not my job, but I am sure there are plenty of posts and/or infomercials that will take care of that for me.
This post was sparked from phone calls I received from new and previous customers. Yes it is true that rates are still at an all time low. But does that mean you need to refinance? Well, that is not always the case. What?? A mortgage consultant telling you it may not make sense for you to refinance? Yes and No. When I am talking with someone about refinancing, I look at many different aspects. Obviously we are going to talk about credit so we can assess your current situation. This post is not about Credit though. If you need to review your credit though, take a look at my previous post which talks about getting a free credit report.
When I consider someone for a refinance, I look at their current loan balance, the term they want compared to how much time they have left, and their credit score. Right now, more than ever, your credit score is a major driver of what interest rate you will receive. So, let's look at a scenario where you can save yourself some thousands of dollars without refinancing.
It may not be possible for you to increase your monthly mortgage payment due to current cash-flow, but if you can that will obviously help. Most mortgages permit you to make additional payments to your principal at anytime. Perhaps you receive a larger than expected tax return, or an inheritance, or a non-taxable cash gift. You could apply this money towards your loan's principal, resulting in significant savings and a shorter loan life.
Let's use the following example:
- Loan Balance $100,000
- 30 year fixed rate
- Current rate 6.5%
In this scenario, the borrower would pay a total of $227,542.98. This is the total of all payments made over the next 30 years. That equals $127,542.98 in interest payments. I know that is a crazy number (for reference, this number can be found on your Truth In Lending Statement).
If the same borrower makes a one-time $5,000 payment the first day of year 6, he/she will pay a total of $204,710.75 and pay off the loan in 27 years (324 months). This shaves off 36 months of payments with a savings of $22,832.23 in interest. Paying a principal reduction in year 6 means nothing, except it worked into my scenario nicely. You may make a principal reduction in year 2 or year 12. The point is to make the principal reduction and you are guaranteed to save on interest.
So... what are you going to do with YOUR tax return this year?
If your principal balance is over $150,000 and you are paying over 6% on your mortgage, you should call your local mortgage consultant. It costs nothing to find out what options are available to you (in most cases) and could save you a ton of money.
You are also welcome to visit my website www.TXMortgageConsultant.com and use the mortgage and budget calculators to see your own savings scenario. No sign-up required and no one will follow-up with a phone call. It is set up for your use only. If you live in Frisco Texas or the surrounding areas, give me a call and I'll be happy to do some comparisons for you.
Are you looking to purchase a Texas home? Perhaps you love your Texas home but would be interested in refinancing your Texas mortgage to a lower interest rate?
I'll help you get pre-approved for your Texas home loan and even suggest some very knowledgeable and professional Real Estate Agents in your area of choice. If you are available to talk, I am available to listen. Give me a call or visit my website for more details.
Do you want to know all of your mortgage options? Call me today and let's discuss them further.
Always available for your Texas Mortgage and Home Loan needs!

The Enchanted Island of Yew
A fairy has become bored with her life, and convinces some young girls to transform her into a human boy so she can go on adventures. The adventures come fast and furious, as the newly-named Prince Marvel explores the surrounding kingdoms. A masochistic squire accompanies Marvel, helping him with assorted kings, knights, dragons, and other medieval menaces along the way.
The Life and Adventures of Santa Claus
This wonderful children's short story tells all about the youth, manhood and old age of Santa Claus and how he became immortal. (Introduction by jedopi)
American Fairy Tales
This collection of fantasy stories was originally serialized in regional newspapers, prior to being published as a complete volume. The stories, as critics have noted, lack the high-fantasy aspect of the best of Baum's work, in Oz or out. With ironic or nonsensical morals attached to their ends, their tone is more satirical, glib, and tongue-in-cheek than is usual in children's stories; the serialization in newspapers for adult readers was appropriate for the materials. (Introduction by Wikipedia and Matthew Reece)
The Surprising Adventures of the Magical Monarch of Mo and His People
The Magical Monarch of Mo is a set of stories about the titular king, his queen, and his royal children. The stories are uproariously funny, dealing with topics as absurd as a man losing his temper who then tries to find it, an evil midget who steals a princess's big toe, and an entire city filled with highly civilized monkeys! Join the Monarch and all his friends for a rollicking adventure, filled with fun for the whole family!

The Story of the Three Little Pigs
Leonard Leslie Brooke was a talented nineteenth/early twentieth century illustrator who also wrote some delightful children's books. He was well-known for his caricatures, portrait and landscape painting and sketches. He illustrated many children's books, especially those written by Andrew Lang. Some of his famous works are The Nursery Rhyme Book, The Golden Goose Book, Johnny Crow's Party and Ring O' Roses. The Story of the Three Little Pigs was published in 1904. Most readers would be familiar with this children's tale...
The Golden Goose Book
A charming little book full of the most gorgeous illustrations. We see a number of stories in which kindness is rewarded and selfishness is punished but Brooke squeezes a number of intriguing and quite bizarre twists and turns into the story so it is not nearly so predictable as you might imagine. Victorian moral fairy tales from a delightfully inventive mind.

Kottō : being Japanese curios, with sundry cobwebs
Kottō contains 20 Japanese stories, collected from different sources and translated by Lafcadio Hearn. The types of stories in this collection are widespread: There are old ghost stories Hearn is best known for (The Legend of Yurei-Daki), his own observations and musings (Pathological), as well as the translation of 'A Woman's Diary', a touching account of the life of the poorer classes in Tokyo, written at the end of the 19th century.

Ivan the Fool
Written after Tolstoy suffered a spiritual crisis, Ivan the Fool is a fairy tale that offers children instruction in how to live rightly, simply, and generously. The story emphasizes the destructive aspects of materialism and militarism while idealizing manual labor and the peasant life. (Introduction by Dorlene Kaplan)
By: Lewis Carroll
Sylvie and Bruno
The novel has two main plots; one set in the real world at the time the book was published (the Victorian era), the other in the fantasy world of Fairyland. While the latter plot is a fairytale with many nonsense elements and poems, similar to Carroll's Alice books, the story set in Victorian Britain is a social novel, with its characters discussing various concepts and aspects of religion, society, philosophy and morality. This book is the first of two volumes and the two intertwining stories are brought to a close in the second volume, Sylvie and Bruno Concluded.
Sylvie and Bruno Concluded
Sylvie and Bruno Concluded continues the adventures of the many characters in the previous volume Sylvie and Bruno. The fairy-children Sylvie and Bruno are charming whenever they appear, their fairy companions such as the Professor delight in taking ideas to their logical (and humorous) conclusions, and many nonsense songs are sung. Meanwhile, the mortals (comprised of the unnamed narrator, the gracious Lady Muriel and the sententious Arthur) tend to become the vehicles for Carroll's regular sermons on morality and proper Christian values.

The Fairies and the Christmas Child
The worst of being a Christmas Child[2] is that you don't get birthday presents, but only Christmas ones. Old Naylor, who was Father's coachman, and had a great gruff voice that came from his boots and was rather frightening, used to ask how I expected to grow up without proper birthdays, and I thought I might have to stay little always. When I told Father this he laughed, but a moment later he grew quite grave. "Listen, Chris," he said. And then he took me on his knee—I was a small chap then—and told me things that made me forget old Naylor, and wish and wish that Mother could have stayed with us...

No matter how one tries, it will not fit.

Police and volunteers will be delivering a simple message to drivers in the vicinity of Crescent Park Elementary in South Surrey this morning: "Think of Me."
The distracted driving campaign – in which cards designed by elementary students are handed out to drivers – aims to remind motorists that school is back in session, and impress the importance of watching their speed and paying attention.
"All drivers are encouraged to think of the kids ("Think of Me") when driving in and around school and playground zones," a news release states.
The effort is in partnership with ICBC, Surrey schools, Vision Zero, Surrey Crime Prevention Society and Surrey RCMP Youth and Traffic Section, designed to reinforce positive driving habits and educate on the risks of distracted driving.
According to ICBC, an average of 77 people die every year in crashes where distracted driving is a contributing factor. The fine for using an electronic device while driving is $368.
Crescent Park Elementary is located at 2440 128 St.

PADDLEBOARDERS on the River Severn have filmed what is believed to be the infamous seal known as Keith, who became a celebrity as it appeared on national news reports after taking up winter residence in the Bewdley area.
Tristan Bawn and Rob Yates filmed the seal recently near Gloucester as they trained for a paddleboard race. Their footage shows the animal, who, if it is Keith, is actually female and attracted a following on Facebook and Twitter after widespread media coverage, nosing their boards and swimming alongside the pair without any sign of fear.
If true, the seal has swum 30 miles downstream from where it was famously seen happily grazing on coarse fish to the delight of many wildife watchers and to the concern of anglers.

College of Charleston Dining Services hosted the first Farmer's Market of the Spring Semester on Jan. 29. The farmer's market spanned George street between the Admissions Office and Porter's Lodge. The College's Dining Services joined with the campus Office of Sustainability to bring the farmer's market to CofC. Adelaide Bates, an intern at the Office of Sustainability explained that Aramark, The College's food service contractor, purchased local fresh foods from GrowFood Carolina and offered it to farmer's market patrons at the same cost.
The Coastal Conservation established GrowFood Carolina, "the state's first local food hub" in 2011. According to GrowFood's website, the food hub distributes products from over 75 local farms to over 80 stores and restaurants around the Low Country. Additionally, GrowFood Carolina sources at least some produce for popular Charleston food scene destinations Poogan's Porch, FIG, 167 Raw, Callie's Biscuits. The College's Liberty Street Fresh Foods, City Bistro and Marty's Place also utilize the local food purveyor.
Furthermore, One Love Komboucha, Cougar Pantry, Vegan Club, the South Carolina Aquarium, Sustainable Agriculture Program, Alliance for Planet Earth Club, and the Nutrition club all tabled at the farmer's market in addition to Dining Services, which was the primary food vendor. Consistent with GrowFood Carolina's practice, all produce sold at the market is from South Carolina farms. The market offered local dairy products, honey, seasonings, greens and grains to patrons.
Bates mentioned the farmer's market's goal is "to provide students access to fresh, affordable produce" and to help farmers educate students.
The College Today reports that subsequent markets will pop up on Feb. 26 and March 26.
The names of the Sustainable Agriculture Program and The Alliance for Planet Earth Club have been corrected.

AEC officially declares Susan Templeman Member for Macquarie
The Australian Electoral Commission (AEC) has officially declared the 2019 poll result for the seat of Macquarie.
Nearly a month after the May 18 election, Labor's Susan Templeman and a group of supporters gathered at the AEC's Penrith offices on Tuesday, June 11 to hear divisional returning officer for Macquarie, Kathleen Fogarty, read out the final result and declare her duly elected to serve in the Australian House of Representatives.
The official result after the distribution of preferences was 50.19 per cent to Ms Templeman, and 49.81 per cent to Liberal candidate, Sarah Richards.
Ms Templeman delivered a short speech saying it was "a wonderful privilege to be re-elected".
She thanked Ms Fogarty and her team for their work during what was "an extraordinary count, probably not what you signed up for really", and acknowledged United Australia Party candidate Tony Pettitt, who was the only other candidate for the seat to attend the declaration.
"It was an interesting campaign that we had, there will be much debriefing of it," she said.
"It is just an enormous privilege to be able to represent Macquarie for another term and I look forward to it, and hopefully being back here in a few years time."

The House Judiciary Committee voted to approve several criminal justice reform bills earlier this year. Despite bipartisan support for the bills, House leadership did not include criminal justice reform on its agenda for September. But this past week Speaker of the House Paul Ryan (R-WI) opened the door for a possible vote on some or all of the bills if he hears from enough Members of Congress.
While it is unclear whether these bills will become law, a House vote would serve as an important first step towards comprehensive criminal justice reform. NLIHC and others are working to ensure that any comprehensive legislation addresses the significant housing needs of formerly incarcerated people.
The U.S. incarcerates its citizens at a shockingly high rate, and nearly one in three Americans has a criminal record. Current laws disproportionately impact people of color and people living in poverty.
As more formerly incarcerated individuals return to their communities, there is growing concern about how they will fare upon reentry. Resources, especially for affordable housing, are already scarce in the low-income communities where formerly incarcerated persons typically return. Because of their criminal records, justice-involved individuals face additional barriers in accessing affordable housing, putting them at risk of homelessness and subsequent recidivism.
Contact your Representatives today and urge them to push for a vote on criminal justice reform.
NLIHC's action alert is at: http://bit.ly/2cKi9AP
