Following his match with Undertaker at WWE Super ShowDown, Goldberg was the brunt of a Twitter trashing from Matt Riddle.
In an interview with talkSPORT in the UK, Riddle says will carry on being open and honest and it isn't changing anytime soon. He is also asked whether WWE would have a problem with that type of approach:
"Just like with the Goldberg stuff – I'm me. I let them know before I signed, because I had opportunities to go work other places and we were discussing and my thing was, I didn't want to let them down. I'm going to tell you who I am, I'm very honest and even with [Matt] Bloom, we've gotten into it where I'm like 'hey man, I think you're disrespecting me' and he's like 'what!' and we get into it but then we're better afterwards because I don't hold anything back. I'm very honest. I'll talk, and I'll talk some sh*t, I'll say some stuff. But, at the same time, it's usually true, I back it up and I think they [WWE] respect that. I think if I was a bad worker and then I did everything that I do, they'd be like 'hate this guy'. But, all the talents like Triple H and Shawn Michaels, they know I'm legit as hell and they love it. Same thing with [William] Regal and [Robbie] Brookside or anybody else, they all know."
Speaking more about his own thoughts on Goldberg, Riddle made it clear he is not a fan.
The thing for me is, and one of the reasons I was never a fan of Goldberg in the beginning when everybody was like 'oh, he's so good!' I was like 'no, he's terrible, he's hurting people' and there's nothing else. He just has three-minute matches. And that was my thing and when people say 'who was your favourite wrestler?' I really don't have one. I just liked really good wrestling. That's why I fight and I do that. So for me, I don't care how much money he makes, I'm just glad people were entertained. But, stick to your wheelhouse, bro. And stop headbutting doors before you wrestle. And I'm not hating – I'm not hating – I'm just spitting facts and these are all facts and things he should take into consideration. And not just for me, not because he got made fun of, but for his health as well.
Having deleted some of his tweets in the past, it remains to be seen whether current NXT star Riddle will stick to his word. Perhaps a promotion to the main roster may enforce a change in approach.

Finished handspun Hafgufa mitts
Mostly photos this time. This project started as some alpaca fleece that I've had for some time; some really beautiful fleece in an inky black, and some equally beautiful locks in a creamy white. I carded batts from both and also mixed the two for a third colour, mid-grey.
It spun nicely, I went for a 3-ply but it was still pretty thin. That was almost perfect. I used 2mm needles but still had to adjust the pattern by a few stitches to get the right size.

Spinning alpaca fleece
I've been spinning like a demon this week, partly to use some alpaca that has been in the stash for such a long time that it's a miracle that it hasn't become home to something nasty. And partly so that I can have a knitting project started in time for a trip.

Choosing a dance studio for your child is important. There are many factors that go into choosing one that best fits your needs. Does this dance company have a variety of classes offered? Are there many dance classes for children or for teens? Are the teachers qualified to teach my child? Is the location conveniently located near me? These are some of the questions that may come up as you decide how to choose the best dance company. It is important that you research dance schools and ask questions to choose one that fits what you're looking for in a dance school and for your child. Here is our guide on how to choose the best dance company.
1. Professional Setting Is Important
Does the dance studio look clean and safe? Are the teachers welcoming and inviting? Is this the kind of environment where kids are able to learn by qualified teachers? Dance class for children requires a balance of having a professional and educational environment and a fun place for kids to enjoy learning to love dance! At Dance to EvOLvE, we want parents and dancers to know our friendly teachers are passionate, highly trained and professional.
An important part of choosing a dance company is knowing the types of classes that are offered and finding the best fit for your child. Does your child like ballet or Hip Hop? Do you want your children involved jazz? Or maybe you'd like your child to try combo classes? Most dance companies, like Dance to EvOLvE, encourage kids to learn and have fun dancing in a variety of styles including Jazz, Tap, Ballet, and Hip Hop. Not only does sampling a variety of dance styles help your kids figure out their interests, it encourages them toseek out opportunities for further growth in their dance skills. Recitals and summer camps offer excellent opportunities to do just that!
3. Convenient Times and Locations
In some cities, parents may be lucky enough to have several dance studios near them, while others may have to travel a great distance to a dance studio. It is important to factor in how much time you are willing to spend driving to and from a dance studio and to make sure the dance class is also at a convenient time for you and your child. One of the unique qualities about Dance to EvOLvE is that we are a mobile dance company. We don't have just one location, but several locations in large cities like San Diego, Chicago, and Seattle. This is an advantage for our dancers because they are able to travel a shorter distance and take our weekly classes at convenient times.
4. What are your expectations for your child?
This is a great question to ask when choosing studios. Are you looking for competition schools, a large dance class setting or small class setting? Does the studio "favor" the competition students? Is there opportunity for performances? Maybe you'd want to find a studio that specializes in a particular style or focus. These are some questions worth considering before picking a dance studio. It is also good to know the expectations of each studio and their understanding of dance. Every dance company is different in their teaching style and their expectations of committed students.
At Dance to EvOLvE, our goal is to provide dance classes for children where they can learn proper technique and have fun doing it! We are big believers in the value of recial; guiding children toward a long term goal (performing at recial) and teaching them the pride and confidence that comes from performing what they have spent weeks practicing. You will find no drama or favoritism here!
As a unique mobile dance company that specializes in children's dance Dance to EvOLvE should be top of your dance studio list to check out. Trial classes are available at all locations. Click below for more information!

|"The LORD is in his holy temple: let all the earth keep SILENCE before him."
3rd Anniversary Thanksgiving Testimony by Dr Jose Trinipil Lagapa
Psalm 117:1–2 tells us, "O praise the LORD, all ye nations: praise him, all ye people. For his merciful kindness is great toward us: and the truth of the LORD endureth for ever. Praise ye the LORD." This is a call for a universal praise unto the Lord our God for His mercy and kindness.
Unworthy as we are in the FilBF, we are thanking God for granting us a part in bringing the good news to as many of our countrymen as we can reach in the Philippines. He paved the way for us to begin ministries to bring the good news according to the Scriptures. Nothing in us is special to make us worthy to be chosen as His instrument. We should just be thankful that by His gracious hand, He moves us to sow seeds of the gospel.
FilBF's third year is a year where we receive more than what we deserve. As we can immediately notice, He provided for us a meeting place at Godhill. This very blessed and fitting place for our meetings is alone worthy of much thanksgiving.
Esperanza BP Missions
In August 7, 2018, the Lord led us through the encouragement of Pastor Robert Kluttz in Japan to start a work in Dakutan, Esperanza, Agusan del Sur. Pr Ronel Libertad answered the Lord's call to become our missionary and is supported by the love gifts from Pastor Kluttz. Although we do not have a church there yet, he keeps on doing the work of an evangelist in the area. Last May, we had our Vacation Bible School (VBS) there and 46 children attended with 13 parents who came for the closing program's Gospel Rally. May the Lord work in the hearts of those who have heard the Word of God. It is now to be supported fully by FilBF and to be named Esperanza Bible-Presbyterian Missions.
Christian Bible Fellowship
On October 28, 2018, on Reformation Sunday, we commenced our witness in Pusok, Lapu-Lapu City, Cebu by the forming of the Christian Bible Fellowship (CBF). The Lord started His work through our brothers Carlo and Jude. The CBF is now having worship services and Bible study meetings every Lord's Day. We thank the Lord for the children who came for the VBS and about half of them are now coming to CBF to attend the Sunday School. May the Lord continue to bless this ministry in Mactan Island.
Trinidad BP Missions
The Lord's rebuke to me led me to commence the work of Trinidad Bible-Presbyterian Missions in Bohol. On February 4, 2019, the Lord called Pr Rodolfo Gayon to start a work in my hometown. Although it is a heavily Roman Catholic community, the hand of the Lord is not shortened to reach the hardened hearts of the people there. Last May 2019, the VBS, the first, as far as I know, saw 12 God-sent children and 4 parents to attend the Gospel Rally.
The Trinidad BP Missions does not have worship meetings on the Lord's Day yet. But in God's time, He will grant us this desire we have. We thank the Lord for the planned missions trip for Pastor and the brethren to visit Cebu and Bohol this September 2019. Let us pray for the Lord to pave the way for them. "As he saith also in Osee, I will call them my people, which were not my people; and her beloved, which was not beloved. And it shall come to pass, that in the place where it was said unto them, Ye are not my people; there shall they be called the children of the living God" (Romans 9:25–26).
New Camiling Church Building
We are thankful that although we are not a rich fellowship, the Lord provided an amount so that we can help with the initial cost of a church building for a Baptist Church in New Camiling, Valencia City. Through the help of True Life BPC and church members, the church building is completed. The church is now using the premises for their Sunday worship, Wednesday prayer meetings, Bible studies, fellowships and other church activities including their recent missions conference.
Ambassadors for Christ
The soul-winning team, Ambassadors for Christ, is still continuing its effort in reaching out to the people in each of their respective church neighbourhoods. On Monday, July 22, 2019, the team travelled more than 8 hours to help Pr Ronnel evangelize the villages nearby his place in Esperanza, Agusan del Sur. Let us pray that the Lord will save souls to start as pioneering members for a church there. May the Lord prepare the hearts of the evangelists and the people to hear God's Word. Please pray for their safety and protection. "How then shall they call on him in whom they have not believed? and how shall they believe in him of whom they have not heard? and how shall they hear without a preacher? And how shall they preach, except they be sent? as it is written, How beautiful are the feet of them that preach the gospel of peace, and bring glad tidings of good things!" (Romans 10:14–15).
The Lord satisfies His children with abundant temporal favours in order to serve Him best. The 44th Graduation Service of Far Eastern Bible College (FEBC) saw three of our members graduating. It is by the grace of God and we should give unto the Lord the praise and adoration for He alone granted them success after years of enabling them to toil and work hard. God supplies their needs according to His riches in glory by Christ Jesus (Philippians 4:9). Jude Thaddeus Gabales, Aprilaiza Sible, and yours truly received our respective awards.
Translation Work
Aprilaiza desires to co-labour with us in our plan to translate the Read, Pray, Grow (RPG) and the hymns for the use of our countrymen in the Philippines, as well as for those who are working here in Singapore and other parts of the world. This is a big task and we cannot do even a bit if God is not opening the door for us. As Paul told the Christians in Thessalonica, "Finally, brethren, pray for us, that the word of the Lord may have free course, and be glorified, even as it is with you" (2 Thessalonians 3:1). Let us seek the Lord's will concerning His plan for us to embark on such a project.
Labourers for God
Although a number of our members went back to the Philippines for good, the Lord is bringing in new faces. Let us pray that they too will come to the saving knowledge of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. One of those who had gone back, Elmie Betacura, has entered Bukidnon Fundamental Baptist Seminary (BFBS) to be trained as a Bible woman. Last January, we are blessed with one who has entered FEBC in the person of brother Deccarlo Igot. We look forward to more of our members being called by God to worship and glorify our Lord. Luke 10:2 says, "The harvest truly is great, but the labourers are few: pray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest, that he would send forth labourers into his harvest."
Lord's Day Evangelism
Because of many who had returned to the Philippines, we are having fewer people. Nevertheless, our Lord's Day evangelism is still going on. We have been visiting Orchard Road and Dhoby Ghaut for our evangelism. Recently, as we have moved to Goldhill Plaza, we have added Toa Payoh Town Park for our Sunday noontime evangelism.
Prepare to Meet Thy God
Let us give thanks and praise our Lord for His mercy and kindness. Let us invite as many as we can that they may hear of His free offer of salvation to all. The second coming of our Lord Jesus Christ is nearer than we think. Let them and let us prepare to meet our God!
"Watch therefore: for ye know not what hour your Lord doth come. But know this, that if the goodman of the house had known in what watch the thief would come, he would have watched, and would not have suffered his house to be broken up. Therefore be ye also ready: for in such an hour as ye think not the Son of man cometh. Who then is a faithful and wise servant, whom his lord hath made ruler over his household, to give them meat in due season? Blessed is that servant, whom his lord when he cometh shall find so doing. Verily I say unto you, That he shall make him ruler over all his goods. But and if that evil servant shall say in his heart, My lord delayeth his coming; And shall begin to smite his fellowservants, and to eat and drink with the drunken; The lord of that servant shall come in a day when he looketh not for him, and in an hour that he is not aware of, And shall cut him asunder, and appoint him his portion with the hypocrites: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth" (Matthew 24:42–51).

You can't lose those extra weights even if you think you are trying seriously and sincerely? Here are some tips that may help you point out why!You don't drink enough water Sufficient plain water each day can help you lose extra pounds. Water has no calories at all, so it satisfies your thirst without adding weight. And when you drink enough water, you may be less likely to grab sodas, juices, or coffee drinks packed with sugar. High calories in sweet drinks can add up to a big weight gain.You wait too long to eat
When you space out your meals too much, your metabolism slows down and isn't able to burn off all the calories you eat in your next meal. Those extra calories may wind up as extra weight. And you may overeat because you're too hungry. Try eating smaller portions, and eat more often.
You eat out too often
If you eat most of your meals at restaurants, it may be harder to keep your weight under control. Even so-called light dishes may have more calories than you realize. People who eat out daily can weigh up to 5 pounds more than those who brown-bag it.
You sit all day
Your desk job or TV obsession may make it harder for you to drop those pounds. When you sit most of the time, your body can lose its ability to know when you've eaten too much, so you can overeat and gain weight. Even brief exercise breaks during the day can help you stay healthy. Get up for three 10-minute walks around meetings or your favorite shows.
You reward workout with foods
Exercise is a great way to lose weight, it burns calories and builds muscle mass. But if you indulge in a big dinner or smoothie after every workout, you can ruin all that sweaty work. Watch out for high-sugar sports drinks and protein bars, too. While they can help quench your thirst or give you an energy boost post-workout, they can be very high in calories.
Stress gives you snack attack
If you feel tense, you're more likely to reach for unhealthy, high-calorie treats for a quick comfort fix. You may eat when you don't really need food.
Your sleep schedule is off
Too much or too little sleep, less than 5 hours a night can be linked to weight gain. Both can throw off the way your body makes the hormones that control your appetite and hunger. And if you don't feel rested, you may skip your workouts, too.
Your thyroid is sluggish
You could gain as much as 5 to 10 extra pounds because of Thyroid problem. Your thyroid makes hormones that control your energy level and how your body breaks down food. If you don't make enough of them, it can be hard to shed pounds. You may also feel bloated because your body holds on to too much water and salt.
Your medication
Some drugs you take for health problems could make you gain a little weight. For example, steroids can change your metabolism and make you feel hungrier; you may overeat and gain extra belly fat. Even antihistamines that calm your cold could cause weight gain. They lower a chemical your body makes to control your appetite, so you may sneeze less but eat more.
You are in menopause
If you're like most women, you may find your weight creeps up during menopause. Changes in your hormones, less muscle mass, and too little sleep from hot flashes can all lead to added pounds. Your genes may also make you more likely to get a "spare tire".
Check with your doctor
Some health problems can make it really hard to lose weight even if you diet and exercise. Your genes can also play a role in how much you weigh or where your body stores fat. Medical tests can show if you have a health problem that makes weight loss hard and you can get medicine or other help to overcome it.
'Fitness is like Marriage. You can't cheat on it and expect it to work."
So find out the reasons and be sincere with your workout and diet to get the result you always wanted.

Guerrillas Find their Way Back to the Top
BLOOMINGTON SOUTH: Week 4 Power Rankings
By Ken Farmer | Bloomington South League Coordinator
1. Guerrillas (2-0)
Last week: (3), W vs Muskies, 82-64
The Guerrillas had another impressive performance for their second win of the season. Their defense was excellent once again as they held the Muskies to just 35 percent shooting from the field. They also forced 14 turnovers and held the Muskies to just eight made 3-pointers. They also displayed a balanced offensive attack and each of their six players scored in double-figures in Week 3. Michael Bundy led the way with 21 points off the bench and Chris Maher added a productive 17 points.
2. Rebels (3-0)
Last week: (2), W vs Lightning, 61-43
The Rebels added another one to their win total, but unlike their overtime effort in Week 2, this one was by a much more comfortable margin. Defense was the story for the Rebels as they limit the Lightning to 34 percent shooting from the field and four 3-pointers. They caused chaos all over the court and forced 21 Lightning turnovers. The offense was carried by Ryan McGuire, who scored a game-high 25 points. Their outside shooting was a bit off as they shot 2-15 from deep.
3. Aardvarks (3-0)
Last week: (1), W vs THEM, 82-78 OT
The Aardvarks needed overtime to defeat THEM in what turned out to be a thrilling finish. They were efficient putting the ball in the basket, shooting 49 percent from the floor, 41 percent from beyond the arc, and 90 percent from the free-throw line. However, they were at times careless with the ball and it resulted in 14 turnovers. Thomas Hoistad led the scoring with 21 points and Emmanuel Harrison hit six 3-pointers for 18 points. Adam Hoven led the team with 18 rebounds and 7 assists.
4. Muskies (1-1)
Last week: (4), L vs Guerrillas, 64-82
The Muskies couldn't get their outside shooting to fall and shot just 23 percent from downtown in their Week 3 loss. They shot 35 percent overall and their lack of shot-making was compounded by too many turnovers -- 14 to be exact -- and the offense suffered as a result. Glen Fair registered a 21-point, 11-rebound double-double which led the team in both categories. Kyle Radde finished with 15 points and 8 rebounds.
Last week: (5), L vs Aardvarks, 78-82
THEM weren't to hold off the Aardvarks at the end of regulation and their overtime effort came up just short in their Week 3 loss. THEM were terrific in the turnover department, forcing the Aardvarks into 14 while having just 5 of their own. They also made 11 3-pointers on the night, but made just 63 percent of their free throws. Devin Stensrude had another strong night offensively, pouring in 37 points and made five 3-pointers. Nirav Sura added 14 points including four made 3s.
6. Red Devils (1-2)
Last week: (8), W vs Player's Club, 64-61
After a close OT loss in Week 2, the Red Devils were able to finish the job in Week 3 to get their first victory of the season. This game nearly went into overtime as well, but the Red Devils were able to hold off the Player's Club late-game effort. Luke Bruun led the team with 14 points and 15 rebounds. Alex Riley also had a double-double with 12 points and 10 rebounds while leading the team with 5 assists.
7. Loons (1-2)
Last week: (7), W vs Free Agents, 71-32
The Loons bounced back from a close loss in Week 2 and earned their first win of the season. They were excellent on the defensive end as they held the Free Agents to just 22 percent from the floor. Their offense was led by Tom Anderson, who scored a game-high 32 points on 77 percent shooting. Aaron Lukitsch made a team-high four 3-pointers on the way to 18 points for the game. Mike Ratelle facilitated the offense and had 6 of the team's 16 assists.
8. Player's Club (1-2)
Last week: (6), L vs Red Devils, 61-64
The Player's Club fell just short in their Week 3 loss to the Red Devils. While they limited the Red Devils offense, they experienced some struggles of their own on that side of the ball. They converted on 35 percent of their field goal attempts and made just 7 of their 37 three-pointers. Steven Kelsey finished with 13 points and had 6 of the team's 16 assists. Tony DeBoer led the scoring effort with 15 points and had 14 rebounds as well.
9. Lightning (0-3)
Last week: (9), L vs Rebels, 43-61
The Lightning had an inefficient night shooting the ball in their Week 3 loss to the Rebels. As a team, they shot 34 percent from the floor and 24 percent from beyond the arc. They also didn't do enough to protect the rock and totaled 21 turnovers. Defensively, the Lightning were solid as they held their opponent to 40 percent and just two 3-pointers. Ahmed Haji and Mike Healy led the team with 11 points while Jake Gave finished with a 10-point, 12-rebound double-double.
10. Free Agents (0-1)
Last week: (10), L vs Loons, 32-71
The Free Agents had some expected struggles in Week 3 considering they haven't developed their team chemistry quite yet. They shot just 22 percent from the floor and had just 4 assists. They'll need to share the ball in the coming weeks and should see their chemistry improve. Vernon Simmons led the scoring with 15 points and had 11 rebounds as well. Matt Bertsch finished with 8 points to aid the scoring effort.

An Insight Into The Art Of Recycling & Value Based Consumption
An Insight Into The Art Of Recycling & Value Based Consumption
— Written by Leland Sutton
Recycling is most commonly recognised as an environmentally responsible practice, built as an ethical response to a consumer economy. And while it is just that, it should also be recognised as an entrepreneurial endeavour. The act of converting wasted or used materials into new, reusable ones — at its core — is built upon the idea of recapturing value.
For the purpose of this article, recycling will refer to the process of buying material goods as an investment. An investment will be defined as a purposeful allocation of money with the expectation of future benefit. The goal of the future benefit is capital appreciation, or at minimum, hold its value at a low depreciation rate. This benefit is often referred to as the return on investment (ROI).
The Concept Of Wardrobe Recycling
First and foremost, an understanding of what to buy is a defining skill in successful recycling. Investment decisions of any sort, should be well-informed decisions. This means doing everything in your power to understand the product, it's history, and its relation to the market, prior getting any skin in the game. Due diligence shown minimises margin of error later. Why does a pair of Off-White Air Jordan 1's sell for 1000%+ above MSRP (Manufacturer Suggested Retail Price — also known as "sticker" price), while a pair of Adidas Superstars can barely fetch half its retail value?
READ: Through The Lens: Getting To Know Virgil Abloh's Louis Vuitton
If the utility of each shoe is the same, rather both shoes function as a shoe should, where does the difference lie? The seemingly impractical disparity in value comes in part from the idea of scarcity. Scarcity refers to the basic economic problem; the gap between limited resources, in this case material goods, and theoretically limitless wants (Investopedia definition). In the world of streetwear, scarcity lives in the form of limited edition products. Companies like Nike and Supreme have coddled this form of anxious consumerism through the popularisation of the "drop" model. Rather than having products be readily available throughout the season, companies are releasing rounds of products in a single instance. This machine is the foundation for "hype" culture, where the cost of entry is defined by the haves vs. the have nots.
Knowing that there will be a limited supply, the demand (hype) swells for the few, popularised items. It's important to understand that supply and demand are the key factors that will regulate pricing, particularly in the secondary market (post-purchase price). When demand exceeds supply — and it often does — prices will rise.
The explosive demand for hype products in the mainstream has created new liquidity in the secondary market. An investment is much safer knowing that there is a pool of interested buyers, should you decide to sell. It's not all about hype either. Scarcity has also taken form in items produced in past seasons that are no longer available on shelves. Websites like Grailed and TheRealReal have made it possible for menswear and womenswear enthusiasts to pinpoint garments from previous seasons that are no longer in production. These platforms have acted like market makers, providing spaces for buyers and sellers to connect with one another.

Whatever products should you choose to invest in, understanding their relation to scarcity, and demand is key in predicting the longevity of their value. The process only works when a product is still useful, and there is no guarantee of positive returns. Blind consumption fails to pay respect to the time invested towards earning the money used in making a purchase. It's important to remember that a purchase is an exchange, in which value should be transferred in both directions.
Buying Things With Value/Does It Spark Joy
All spending is not equal. Investing is spending with purpose; whether that be to preserve or appreciate. This knowledge can be leveraged as a guiding force when entering the market. By breaking down an asset (or product) into attributes, it becomes easier to understand where the quality and value are coming from. For the more hype items, value can be derived from the aforementioned cultural connotation of being in-crowd. For other goods, value can be a derivative of the quality of the materials used to produce a given garment. Whatever the value is anchored to, the end goal remains the same: invest to maintain and/or exceed the Principal.
The difference between casually spending versus strategically investing in pieces can be illustrated through a comparison familiar to the Newspread audience; buying a Stone Island jacket versus buying a jacket from a major fast fashion retailer.
READ: Stone Island: A History Lesson From Football To Fashion
Buying any top tier item from Stone Island is undoubtedly a considerable initial investment. The unicorn brand's reputation sits on a culture of experimentation and innovation. Their objective is to push boundaries and create quality garments that redefine the common understanding of sportswear. Behind each jacket lies decades of cumulative research and experimentation, from fibres and dyes, to textiles. The company's signature Tela fabric was initially developed in the 1980's, and has seen new iterations to improve repellency and stand up to the test of time. In order to ensure quality standards are met, products of this caliber are often produced in low numbers, resulting in a higher initial price point.
Fast fashion retailers look at quality and value differently. The value of fast fashion comes from accessibility through price point and abundance. Their objective is to provide a range of reasonably priced items for the marketplace at any given time. Trends are chased and saturated in a cyclical manner, designed to occupy and satiate short term desires. To achieve this, they often use cheaper materials, resulting in garments that fill the void in the meantime but may not hold their weight in value and construction long term. This is not a judgment of anyone who participates in fast fashion, rather a disclaimer that mass produced items are typically a depreciation asset in your investment portfolio.
READ: Through The Lens: The History Of The 90's Fashion Revival
Calculating the price per wear (PPW) is another way of analysing prospective value. Say the initial investment of a Stone Island jacket is $600. Paired with materials that withstand multiple conditions (dual utility), a construction quality that promises longevity, and a preservation of market value at the end of its tenure in your closet, the long term value quickly becomes more apparent. This compared to a fast fashion jacket with a retail price of $100. Likely made from poor materials, often being more aesthetic than useful, low-quality construction meant only last a single season, and little to zero market value, the $100 expenditure begins to look less rational.
Poor spending is like burning money; it's irrational. Investing in garments of quality construction, from companies with considerable brand equity, means you're preserving or ideally, adding value on your principal investment.
What Are The Benefits?
Less clutter
Better quality items
Sell a piece to buy a piece
Getting most your investment back
Not needing to use other streams of money
After carefully considering the why, it's time to explore the benefits of strategic buying. Whether we choose to acknowledge it or not, we all operate on some form of the hedonic treadmill, meaning the endorphin release from those new pickups will eventually fade. Should the items you purchase lose their luster and no longer spark the Kondo-esque joy they once promised, you can rest assured that you've hedged your investment.
In simple terms, careful consideration during your initial decision-making means your items likely still have market value, opening new opportunities to accommodate changing tastes and needs. At this level, recycling is also a form of risk mitigation. Whether it takes form as buyer's remorse, an ill fit, or a personal rebrand, material goods are bound to come and go. Consider it as a built-in return policy
In the case of material goods, investing more can mean spending less. When done right, recycling clothing means recycling funds. After a certain threshold has been surpassed, the ability to recapture and regenerate value allows your primary income to remain untouched. No more breaking the bank to fund your sneaker addiction. Buying the sacai Nike's you've been lusting after with a pair of Balenciaga's that never fit you is a glorious victory. Returning to the initial example of resell culture, many entrepreneurs credit their start out of a need to fund their own habit. By buying two or more pairs of a given sneaker, they can rely on the secondary market to cover the cost of their initial investment, and save their hard earned money for the next rainy day.
Whether your intent is to curate a better closet or create a supplementary income through reselling, this practice is designed to help you become a more informed and careful consumer. Pay respect to the effort invested in earning your income, down to the dollar. By focusing on material goods with real value, you'll transform your closet into a well-organized space, filled only with things that matter to you. As they say, quality over quantity.
What Does It Mean Long Term?
The brief lessons detailed in this article, while focused on clothing, can and should be applied to other aspects of everyday life. In the grand scheme of things, clothing investing is relatively moderate risk, low consequence. Remember, no investment is guaranteed to succeed. Losing your entire investment is painful, sure, but the value of a single garment can usually be made back. Take advantage of this low consequence period to try, fail, iterate, and try again. The more you practice, the better you will understand how the market works and how to best situate yourself for success. Consider clothing recycling as the practice rounds.

In the long run, you'll eventually graduate to the more substantial milestone investments that require deeper consideration and analysis. Whether it be a Rolex (please buy vintage), a car, or even a home, the proportion of these investments means they are much higher consequence, should ill-informed decision making occur.
To recap: start to look at your purchases through a more critical lens and ask yourself, if I buy this item what value does it provide me in the future, will I actually wear/use the item, and if I ever did want to sell this, what kind of return will I get on my investment? These questions will help guide you to make smarter choices in your everyday life, to think long term, and maximise the value and satisfaction from the material goods around you.

Tomorrow is my seventeenth first day of school.
I should be a professional by now - skilled at the laying out of clothes and meticulous labeling of notebooks. I've sharpened so many pencils and zipped up so many backpacks and spent nights tossing and turning with anticipation of a new beginning. I've mastered the art of being just early enough to get a good seat and the lay of the land before lecturing begins. Alternative routes to the restroom are on my radar, along with prime note-taking postures and front-of-room visibility.
I am so good at school.
Yet every year, my stomach is knotted and my vision is blurry and my words catch in my throat. I'm good at school, but I'm not so good at firsts. I'm not so good at new. At "share a fun fact about yourself." My sky-high expectations hit the dirt of reality with a swiftness that always catches me by surprise.
The 16ish months since I last sat in a classroom have taught me a lot about expectations, though. As in, lowering them. As in, releasing them. As in, there are better things and worse things ahead - harder and scarier and more beautiful things. There are things ahead that I could never have asked for or dreamed up or wished away. These months have taught me that every day somehow contains both more magic and more monotony than I anticipate.
Yet at the start of a new season, in the preparation, I lapse so quickly from expectancy to expectations.
Expectancy is an open-handed posture, grateful. Expectancy is Advent, and it is Good Friday, and it is a reverence towards that which has not yet arrived. Expectant hearts are content with things, yes, things as they are. Expectant people are living into something unknown that they anticipate will be for their good.
But expectations are held up in clenched fists. Less a state of being than a weapon fighting a futile battle against reality. Expectations keep my hands so full of junk food that I can't pick up the manna that's been raining down in the wilderness. Expectations are built up around what I think is best for me. And more often than not, they are not too high but too low. No longer open to possibility and spontaneity, I bind myself to black and white sketches, stage directions and arbitrary roles I assign based on little besides my own whims.
I've believed that my success lies in expectations. How will I be good enough if there is no line to mark what's enough? I quickly settle for make-believe because, honestly, I rarely have enough faith to trust there's something better than I can stitch together in my imagination. So when I'm asked, are you ready? I say, Of course. I spew a list of boxes checked, tasks finished, textbooks ordered. My outfit is laid out and my bag is packed and, naively, I believe that is all enough.
I used to think all this idealizing meant I was a woman of conviction and sky-high standards. That I would be enough because I spent so much time thinking about how I could be. But with every unmet and over-met expectation comes the truth: the things I thought were principles were prisons. What I thought were ideals were really just invented ways for me to protect myself from something scarier than disappointment - failure. But I was never protected, only inhibited. Blocked from the real gift - fullness. Reality that, yes, cuts deep, but also heals. And that healing is exactly what I've found as I've opened my hands. Through the slow, often painful process of loosening my grip on expectations, I have learned to expectantly wait for better things.
I expect new mercy each morning. I expect hard-won victories. I expect to grow. I expect that some days will feel easy and light. That others will feel bulky and difficult. And I expect that they will all make me better, if I let them.

Are you smoking or are cigarettes smoking customers?
Smoking is a habit, rather an addiction, provides severe repercussions for the fitness of the smoker. However, nicotine, which is the main ingredient of the cigarette, has an immediate satisfying experience for the nicotine user. Nicotine it is that is responsible for positive aspects or the kick that any smoker feels after smoking a cigarette but he rarely realizes that there are more than 4000 carcinogens that are getting inside his body as he smokes a cigarette. Smoking dried tobacco leaves wrapped inside a thin paper rolled into a cigarette is a habit that as old as civilization though modern science has proved beyond doubt that cigarette smoking is injurious to health and the habit of smoking leads to cancers a lot of types.
Cigarette smoking kills and harms your near ones
Smoking cigarettes is the main reason cited for deaths introduced on by lung cancer. Smoking also leads to many other ailments and brand new has to much more on the treatment of smokers who catch cancers caused by carcinogens in the smoke of a cigarette. Passive smoking is another big threat of cigarettes and those innocent people surrounding the smoker get affected who are hardly involved with .
Trying to find any good filmed by smoking
Wait a occasion! Isn't this article supposed to be on goodness of cigarettes or at least to find something good caused by cigarettes? Yes, indeed it is but if cigarettes had anything good to offer to the people, why would governments around the world try to ban cigarette smoking in public areas? If one tries to think about the government of Dubai's initiatives, it becomes clear that the government is hell bent of saving its people from the perils of smokes as it has once again extended the blanket ban on cigarette smoking in public places. The government is also ostensible trying various other smoking costlier by increasing the prices of branded cigarettes and hur fungerar e cigaretter levying penalties on people violating the ban on smoking. Government of UAE, realizing that smoking is forward cause of deaths in the country is trying to discourage smoking so that this habit slowly dies down.
The recent decision to put graphic images of oral cancer on cigarette packs is a good way to discourage people, especially teenagers from cigarettes. It has been seen that whenever government has raised automobiles of cigarettes, could possibly decrease in the number of teenagers who cigarette. Use of deadly photos is a method to drive home what cigarette does unhealthy at all and rather kills those who smoke.

Beric Dondarrion is Lord of Blackhaven. He became the leader of the Brotherhood Without Banners after he was sent out to the Riverlands by Eddard Stark to bring the king's justice to Ser Gregor Clegane. He is almost twenty-two years old.[1] He is betrothed to Lady Allyria Dayne.[2]
He is handsome and has red-gold hair.[3]
Recent Events
A Game of Thrones
He came to King's Landing to fight in the tourney celebrating Eddard Stark's appointment as Hand of the King.[3] During the tournament he lost a horse in a tilt with a hedge knight and was unhorsed by Thoros of Myr shortly thereafter.[4] After the conclusion of the tournament, he remained in King's Landing. This led him being appointed to lead an expedition to arrest Ser Gregor Clegane, who had been raiding the Riverlands after the capture of Tyrion Lannister.[5] That led to the Battle at the Mummer's Ford, where he was killed for the first time by Gregor Clegane's lance and defended by his squire Edric Dayne. [2] By the time that Robb Stark and his allies were fighting the Lannister armies near the Trident, Beric's group was continually raiding the Lannisters' foraging parties.[6], [7], [8], [9]
A Clash of Kings
Rumors have Beric as missing or perhaps dead.[6] [10] He is still raiding the Lannister foraging parties[9] and Ser Gregor Clegane's group is actively seeking him[11], as are Tywin Lannister's forces stationed at Harrenhal[12] His group meets smallfolk plagued by the ravage of Lannister forces but does not trouble them, and attempts to pay for the food they take[12]
A Storm of Swords
After being slain by Ser Gregor at the Mummer's Ford, he was resurrected by Thoros of Myr[13] and became the leader of the outlaw band, the Brotherhood Without Banners. He was killed several more times, but was brought back to life each time, although each time he was brought back he came back with fewer memories of his life before the war. He was captured near the Gods Eye and hanged by Lannisters, but was cut down before he could die.[14] He was slain by Ser Burton Crakehall, hung by Ser Amory Lorch at Rushing Falls. Ser Gregor put a dirk through his eye and Sandor Clegane killed him during his trial by battle.[15] By the end Beric became a scarecrow of a man, his battered body bearing all the wounds of his previous deaths.
He truly died when he gave his life to bring back Catelyn Stark, whose body had been found by the outlaws after the Red Wedding.[16]
The Seven Deaths of Dondarrion
- Impaled on a lance by Ser Gregor Clegane[6], [17], [2]
- Smashed with a mace on the side of the head by Ser Burton Crakehall[9],[13]
- Hanged at Rushing Falls by Ser Amory Lorch[17], [13]
- Stabbed in the eye with a dirk by Ser Gregor Clegane[17], [13]
- Killed by an archer of the Brave Companions sellsword company[17]
- Killed by Sandor Clegane in a trial by combat[15]
- Gave up his lifeforce to resurrect Catelyn Tully [16]

My client sent me an excel file with XY data not in Lat Long format, but in XY Coordinates (e.g. x= 1705962, y = 12257736) and wants me to plot it in the arcmap with satellite imagery as basemap. How could I work on it?
I imported this Excel file to ArcMap by using File --> Add Data --> Add XY Data and then specify the XY fields. However, I don't know the Coordinate system. It did plot my data in the arcMap, but it is not matched with the Basemap.
I tried to use Define Projection to set up a Projected Coordinate System to it, but I don't know which one I need to use. I tried UTM or NAD 1983 in Projected Coordinate Systems but the result doesn't match with the basemap.
What should I do to plot the data in the Excel file overlaid with the basemap? Should I ask my client which Coordinate System they are using for the XY Coordinate?
I would really appreciate your help!
