The key here is balancing the demand for your product or service with the capacity of your business to use trade dollars. Your ability to spend trade dollars is directly related to your willingness to look at alternative suppliers in the Bartercard network in order to save cash.
Wouldn't it be great if you could use Bartercard to gain new cash customers?
The best way to describe this Trading Tip is through a real example from one of our members.
Just Water were quoting against other cooler companies for a contract to supply water coolers to a major national retail chain of 30+ stores. They didn't want to discount their product to win the contract, so instead they thought outside the box.
When submitting their quote they offered to take a percentage of their quote in gift cards from the retail chain. They secured the contract because the retailer realized they were getting a discount equal to their gross profit margin, by paying with their product. Just Water then sold the gift cards through Bartercard and used the trade dollars to purchase business related items therefore saving cash.
Just Water utilized Bartercard to give their business an edge over cash competitors.
One of the first areas businesses look to save money is on their advertising spend. This is a double edged sword as it can also reduce the number of customers coming through the door. One of the best ways you can spend trade dollars is attracting new cash paying customers.
There are a few different ways you can increase your advertising spend while competitors are reducing theirs:
A pest extermination company wanted to gain new cash business. They purchased a weekend package at Treetops on the Sunshine Coast, Australia, at a cost of T$540. They then set up a booth in a Shopping Center and ran a promotion whereby if a new customer used their extermination services within two months they went in to a draw to win the weekend package. The promotion attracted $6,000 in new cash sales. The Member gained new cash customers to the value of $6,000 after outlaying T$540.
This trading tip is about spending trade dollars to make your business more attractive to cash paying customers. By doing this you can increase your market share without spending cash.
Do you have any regular cash clients who have fallen on hard times and are struggling to pay you?
Rather than pursuing the debt and having the relationship turn sour, you may be able to use this trading tip, for a win/win result. The idea is to offer them an incentive to pay you now.
Here's an example of how it could work:
A printer is owed $10,000 cash from a jeweler and the invoice has been outstanding for 12 months. The printer could offer the jeweler an incentive, by saying they will accept half of the debt in cash and the other half in product or gift vouchers. This incentive could have a limited timeframe in order to motivate the jeweller to resolve the debt. The product or gift vouchers would then be sold through Bartercard for trade dollars and the printer would use the trade dollars in their business.
If there is hardly any hope of them paying some cash, then the printer might accept the whole debt in product or gift vouchers or, even ask the jeweler to join Bartercard in order to pay the debt directly in trade dollars. Surely it is better to be paid now in trade dollars rather than hanging out for the cash and risking not being paid at all.
If you could pay some cash bills with trade dollars that would be a good thing, right? There are a couple of different ways that this is possible.
The first is to review your suppliers and look at who might be open to receiving goods or services in lieu of a cash payment. Then purchase goods or services from within the Bartercard membership for your supplier, who would in turn give you a credit on your account.
The second way to achieve this is to suggest to your supplier to accept trade dollars. If this was a permanent arrangement then we would sign them into Bartercard. If it was a one off deal, then we have another option of a Bartercard spend down account.
Instead of giving up on unwanted products and writing them off as a loss, promote them to a new marketplace who might have use of them. If you're unsure how that could be made to happen, ask yourself these questions. Do you have excess inventory sitting in your business? Is your competition coming out with newer products while yours are collecting dust and losing value? Or, do you want a higher turnover for your inventory?
Rather than heavily discounting, running last minute deals or writing off surplus inventory, you can keep its value by selling it through Bartercard's network at the normal selling price! We provide you with the tools to sell excess inventory, ensuring you maximize your returns and your productivity during slow periods and utilize spare capacity.
Use trade dollars to reward staff in your business.
Wages are often one of the largest bills a business has and staff look for a pay rise yearly. Many Bartercard members pay their staff bonuses in trade dollars which they are then able to use at restaurants, for car repairs, haircuts, gifts, dry cleaning, massages, chiropractor visits, or even a vacation.
You can use trade dollars to reward staff, keep them motivated and increase performance. Bartercard has two tools to help you achieve this:
Staff Accounts – This is a separate account to the business account, only the parent account can transfer funds into it and only the parent account will pay fees.
Gift Cards – These are a great way of giving your staff a one-off trade dollar payment or bonus – e.g. at Christmas time you might give each staff a T$500 bonus.
The key is to work with your Trade Broker to discuss your requirements and learn how you can best benefit from you Bartercard membership.

As a professional play-by-play man, what can you learn about your craft simply by listening to Vin Scully today?
== Ken Levine (linked here), current KABC-AM "DodgerTalk" host, former play-by-play man for the Baltimore Orioles, Seattle Mariners and San Diego Padres, and set to call 30 games for the Mariners this season:
"What young broadcasters should take from Vin Scully is his humanity. Scully never forgets that these athletes are human beings. When a rookie shortstop makes an error, instead of just ripping him, he'll project what it must be like to be 21 years-old, playing in front of 50,000 people, and the pressure he must be under.
"Scully will dwell on what's going through a pitcher's mind standing all alone on the mound or the emotions going through a young player's head knowing his whole family is in the stands. This can translate to any sport. Approach your broadcast with humanity."

A 20-year-old man was arrested in connection with an armed home invasion in Danville on Wednesday morning, police said. Police arrested Danville resident Brendan Fagen on Wednesday afternoon, hours after he allegedly broke into a home in the 1000 block of Fountain Springs Circle and held the homeowner and her child hostage, according to Danville police Chief Steve Simpkins.
Police said the homeowner returned home around 11:45 a.m. to find Fagen inside the house. The intruder then pointed a gun at the homeowner and her child, briefly holding the pair hostage and forcing them to move through the house before he fled. Officers called to the scene a short time after the incident were unable to locate the suspect, police said.
Detective work led officers later in the day to identify Fagen as the suspect in the burglary. He was arrested without incident and taken to county jail in Martinez, where he is being held on $2.1 million bail, according to police. Police said they were seeking charges against Fagen including kidnapping with the intent to commit robbery, burglary, robbery and false imprisonment. Detectives are actively investigating the case and are attempting to recover two guns stolen from the victim's house on Wednesday.

RAMEAU Platée, Early Opera Company, Paul Agnew, St John's Smith Square, London
Walker has performed Platée on stage and his experience showed in his confident (despite the frock), even macho negotiation of some fearsomely high-lying music and in expressing not just Platée's vanity and grossness (guttural consonants spat into various faces) but also her likeability…Walker's virtuoso turn…

In summertime the vineyards surrounding Traverse City are a favorite place for wine tours and tasting, as wine lovers comb the lovely hills of the Old Mission and Leelanau peninsulas in search of the newest vintages. The very features that make these two narrow peninsulas so lovely – their high, rounded ridges bathed by long fiords of clear, deep water – are the reason it's possible to grow wine grapes here.
That's one reason why the region's nearly 40 wineries have gained an international reputation for the clean, elegant taste and bouquet of their wines. But it also explains why so many people love to make the annual pilgrimage to the two peninsulas to sample those wines in the incomparable setting where they were made.
Take your own self-guided tour, or let someone else do the driving by engaging one of our wine-savvy tour operators to arrange a limo tour of the Traverse City wine country.

It Follows's Maika Monroe Is Independence Day 2's Female Lead
She joins Charlotte Gainsbourg, Liam Hemsworth, and Jessie Usher.
With a penchant for the otherworldly, It Follows star Maika Monroe has landed the female lead in Roland Emmerich's Independence Day sequel, according to The Hollywood Reporter. The 21-year-old actress joins newbies Charlotte Gainsbourg, Liam Hemsworth, and Jessie Usher, and vets Jeff Goldblum, Judd Hirsch, and Bill Pullman. Monroe will reportedly play the president's daughter. Oh, and Hemsworth's love interest. Spicy — as long as she's not being followed. (Yes, we're still having nightmares.)

Producers of the new Full House reboot asked Avengers: Age of Ultron star Elizabeth Olsen if she'd be interested in replacing her twin sisters Mary-Kate and Ashley, according to show star John Stamos.
The famous siblings, who shared double duty as young Michelle Tanner on the hit 1990s show, are now 29-year-old fashion designers and opted not to be part of the Netflix revival series, so TV bosses asked their sister if she would be interested.
And in an interview with TV personality Andy Cohen on his SiriusXM radio show on Monday (04Jan16), Stamos, who played Tanner's onscreen uncle in Full House, revealed creator and executive producer Jeff Franklin attempted to get the next best thing to the Olsen twins.
"I don't think this has been talked about... I didn't do it; I think Jeff Franklin did... I said, 'Call the sister. Ask her...' We talked to her agent and her agent was like, 'Come on, she's not going to do that', but we did call her agent."
Fuller House, in which Stamos, Bob Saget, Candace Cameron Bure, Jodi Sweetin, and Lori Loughlin, among others, will reprise their beloved characters, will debut on Netflix on 26 February (16).

Garra longipinnis
|Scope: Global
Language: English
|Scientific Name:
|Garra longipinnis Banister & Clarke, 1977
|Taxonomic Notes:
|The taxonomic status of G. longipinnis is problematic and needs further analysis. Banister and Clarke (1977) recognized that there were no definitive metric or meristic characters that distinguished it from G. barreimiae. Specimens collected in 2002 from the type region (which was only stated as "a wadi near the village of Saiq;" see notes on 'Distribution') did not show the extremely elongated pectoral fins of the type specimens, and exhibited gross features in common with adjacent populations of G. barreimiae, both on the Saiq Plateau to the east (Wadi Manakher) and elsewhere to the west (falaj at Misfah al-'Abriyeen), along the southern flank of the Jebel Akhdar (Feulner 2002). Molecular genetic studies have also placed specimens from the near the type region in the same clade as subpopulations from areas to the west, considered to be G. barreimiae, including those at Misfah al-Abriyeen and the discrete subpopulation of 'Omani blind cave fish' (Kruckenhauser et al. 2011). The situation is further complicated by the observation that specimens from a spring-fed falaj system on the Saiq Plateau, not far from the type region, exhibit certain morphological differences suggestive of a species that is distinct from other specimens named G. longipinnis (Krupp pers. comm. 2011). It remains therefore unclear, if G. longipinnis represent a valid species different from G. barreimiae or a synonym of G. barreimiae.
|Red List Category & Criteria:
|Data Deficient ver 3.1
|Year Published:
|Date Assessed:
|Harrison, I.J.
|Feulner, G.R. & Freyhof, J.
|World Conservation Monitoring Centre
Despite attempts to locate the species, it has not been seen since 1968 and there is no current information on the distribution or population. This species might be a synonym of G. barreimiae. Until the taxonomic problems are resolved, it is therefore assessed as Data Deficient.
|Previously published Red List assessments:
|Range Description:
|This species was described from a wadi near the village of Saiq, in the Jebel al Akhdar range of Oman (23˚02'N, 57˚28'E), draining to the coast of southern Arabia (Banister and Clarke 1977). Despite attempts to locate it, fishes agreeing with the types have not been seen since 1968. Fishes found in 2002 at three sites on the Saiq Plateau in the immediate vicinity of the original collections could not be identified as G. longipinnis (G. Feulner pers. comm. 2012).

|Habitat and Ecology:

|Continuing decline in area, extent and/or quality of habitat:

|Use and Trade:
There is no documentation of use and trade of this species (G. Feulner pers. comm. 2012).
|Major Threat(s):
|Threats to the species are not known as it has not been seen since 1968. However, potential current threats include water abstraction and water pollution, and potential future threats include invasive species and droughts.
|Conservation Actions:
|Additional field work and sound taxonomic work are needed to finally resolve whether G. longipinnis is a synonym of G. barreimiae or not.

Assignment: Clinton Campaign
Dec 30, 2015Alumni Outcomes
Advertising executive Fay Ferguson '73 and her longtime business partner, McGhee Osse, will play a key role in influencing voters as the nation prepares to elect its next president in 2016.
Ferguson is co-chief executive officer of Burrell Communications Group based in Chicago and Los Angeles. The agency was tapped by Hillary Clinton's campaign to develop advertising targeted to African-Americans. The assignment includes varied forms of media, including television, radio, print and digital.
"This electrifying news affected our company in a matter of seconds – from the mailroom to the executive suite, excitement and joy filled the agency in anticipation of helping impact this historic election," Ferguson says.
Ferguson's agency has more than 40 years of experience in marketing to general and multiracial audiences. Its client roster, award-winning communications and strong commitment to the African-American community were integral to winning the account, says Ferguson, who serves on Concordia's Board of Regents.
Examples of the agency's work include:
- The Burrell Fatherhood Initiative, which celebrates African-American dads who play an active role in their children's lives;
- The Burrell "Black Is Human" Campaign gives voice to young, black boys who face violence on a daily basis and, consequently, deliberate on "if I grow up" versus "when I grow up";
- McDonald's 365Black Campaign that celebrates achievements in the African-American community year-round.
"We are honored to have been selected," Ferguson says.

Grandpa had a taxie run. He owed a Buick and Model T.
The family moved from Patterson Lake to the Bay Road. Moved again and on to Whitehall. From Whitehall they oved to McCormick. Rains washed out the crops and Grandpa talked to Morris Smith and got a team of mules and wagon and moved the family to the Bay Road.

Get set for life: Teaching the difference between the truth and a lie
Get set for life: Teaching the difference between the truth and a lie
Parents often worry when their young children don't tell the truth, concerned that their behaviour somehow reflects on their children's character. Relax!
Preschoolers are notorious for stretching the truth. They aren't being defiant or naughty, they're just acting their age. They'll eventually grow out of this stage once they learn the difference between fantasy and reality and begin to develop a sense of right and wrong. As a parent, it's important to view lies for what they are and to treat them not as signs of trouble but rather as opportunities to teach.
Tips for teaching your kids the difference between the truth and a lie
Telling the truth is something that children gradually learn over the years, not something they know how to do from birth. Here are some teaching moments in which parents can encourage children to tell the truth.
1. Whenever possible, help your child understand the difference between truth and fantasy. For example, you could say, "I can see that you can make up great stories. We should write them down and make a book out of them."
2. Show your child that you understand that some lies are wishes. If your child says that he didn't break the window when you know that he did, gently acknowledge, "I know you wish it didn't happen, and I'm sure that you didn't mean to do it, but you did break the window."
3. Focus on finding a solution instead of simply laying blame. Say, "The window is broken, so what are we going to do about it?"
4. Explain to your child why telling the truth is important by saying something like, "When people tell the truth it helps us trust them." Ask your child how he would feel if someone told him a lie. Stating important family values and explaining the reasons for instating them helps children gradually adopt the values.
5. Notice the times when your child does tell the truth, especially when you know it must have been difficult for her to do so, and let her know how pleased you are that she was honest. Children at this age desperately want to please their parents, and often lie to avoid upsetting them. If your child learns that the truth pleases you more than the broken vase annoys you, the truth will usually win out.
6. Finally, try to set a good example. That little white lie you told when the phone rang and you whispered, "Tell him I'm not here" can confuse the youngster who has just been told that lying is wrong.
Remember, helping children be honest is something that will happen over time, not all of a sudden. So be patient, take it in stride when your child lies, and treat each new situation as a chance to teach him about honesty in a calm and constructive manner.

Was just wondering if anybody has ever heard anything good or bad about SWBC, Southwest Business Corporation, and its asset management division. I know they have a wealth management divison that is run by some former guys from Smith Barney, but dont know anything about the investment services division which seems to be completely seperate. Thanks
I wonder if they are the same as Southwest Securities. This firm has been calling me left & right for a meeting. Don't know anything about either / or.
There is a Southwestern Investment Services, Inc which is not the same firm. They are a division of Southwest Books and clear throught Raymond James and they are based in Nashville TN. They are a good group of guys.IndyEDJ

IMPORTANT: for more information about cheap international flights direct to Granada airport, see this page
There are now international flights to Granada from about 6 locations. There are many more flights to Málaga so many people fly to Málaga and then get a bus or hire a car (see information below).
Granada airport is 12km from the city centre. On arrival it is best to get a taxi from the airport so that you can get to your accommodation without walking through the streets with your luggage. The taxi costs about 28 euros. Click here for more info.
There is also a bus service which takes you to the centre of Granada. The bus times tie in with all the flights. There is more information about the airport bus on this page and a map with the bus stops here.
For domestic flights within Spain use the Iberia web site click here
For cheap international flights click here
Málaga is the nearest international airport
to Granada and there are plenty of flights. It takes about 90 minutes
from Málaga to Granada by road.
For cheap international flights to Málaga click here
It is not usual to catch a train from Málaga to Granada mainly because of the change at Bobadilla which can take a long time.
Getting from Málaga by bus
There are now direct buses from Málaga airport to Granada bus station. They leave at 11:30 in the morning and 18:30 in the afternoon. The journey takes 2 hours 20 minutes and a one-way ticket costs 10€.
If you arrive at another time, it is faster to catch a bus from Málaga airport to Málaga bus station and then catch a bus to Granada. There are buses to Málaga bus station every 30 minutes and buses to Granada every hour. The journey takes about 2 hours and costs 10€. It is difficult to get to Granada after 21:30. A taxi from Málaga
Granada bus station is just outside of town, so you will have to get a taxi or a bus into the centre. To buy tickets online visit alsa.es You can check times and prices and even choose your seats.
If you miss the last bus to Granada, you will have to get a hotel in Málaga or club together with 4 people and get a taxi (a taxi from Málaga is about 120 - 160 euros).
If you need a cheap place to stay in Málaga for the night, I have been told that the Cenacheros pension is OK. Otherwise ask a taxi driver to take you to a Pension or Hotel.
MÁLAGA (AIRPORT) - GRANADA (BUS STATION): 11:30 and 18:30
GRANADA (BUS STATION) - MÁLAGA (AIRPORT): 07:00 and 10:00
MÁLAGA (BUS STATION) - GRANADA (BUS STATION): 07:00 - 21:00 (EVERY HOUR) (18:30 not 18:00)
GRANADA (BUS STATION) - MÁLAGA (BUS STATION): 07:00 - 21:00 (EVERY HOUR) and 21:30
When you come out of arrivals, go straight on and you will come to the bus stop
Getting from Málaga in a
hire car
Remember that the only point in having a car in the centre of Granada is for going on excursions. Once you are in the centre of Granada you can walk everywhere or get a taxi. Parking your car in a public car park will normally cost at least 25 euros per day but a new car park has opened which costs 40 euros per week click here
Most companies have pick-up and drop-off points both at Granada airport and in the centre of Granada.
There is a list of hire car companies here
Getting from Málaga airport in a
Just go to the taxi rank at the airport and try to get the best price. You should be able to get the price down to 140 or even lower. You will need to show them the address of where you are going and then ask the price. It is a good idea to get them to write the figure down on a paper so that they can't later say it was higher and that you didn't understand.
There are companies who operate a long distance taxi service out of Málaga For example Málaga Taxi. The price to Granada is 159 euros click here to see the website
The boss of a taxi company asked me to put this message here "Users of GranadaInfo qualify for a substantial discount in Taxi and Minibus fares from Málaga Airport to Granada. Contact Adrian Howarth at Málaga Airport Taxi directly on +34 693 900 900 or email firstname.lastname@example.com and mention that you use GranadaInfo!" He also told me the price would be 130€-135€ (normal price is 189€).
The train station is fairly central and is in Avenida de Andaluces off Avenida de la constitución. The phone number is 958 271 272. Granada is not on a high speed line. See more info
The talgo takes about 5 and a half hours from Madrid. Seville is 4 hours by train. Most people choose the bus rather than the train when coming from Malaga or Almeria.
RENFE have a good
web site giving full information about trains in Spain
in English.
Follow these links homepage and timetables.
By the way: If you want some help with train vocabulary in Spanish, visit this page
There are many buses each day to and from the other large Spanish cities. To buy tickets online visit ALSA. You can check times and prices and even choose your seats. The bus station is slightly out of town and you will need to get a taxi or a bus to get to the centre. Click here for more info
From Madrid
If you are coming from Madrid you will need to go to "estación del sur".
The nearest tube station to "Estación del Sur" is Méndez Álvaro The buses go about every hour and if there is a busy day, for example before or after a fiesta they put on more buses according to demand. The usual thing (if you haven't bought tickets in advance) is just to go to the bus station and get on the next available bus. You would be unlucky if you have to wait longer than 2 hours for a bus. Try the ALSA window. It takes about 5 hours from Madrid to Granada and costs around 17 euros.
The bus company owns a cafe half
way between Madrid and Granada where they sell overpriced dried
up sandwiches and lukewarm coffee. If this is your first time
in Spain don't get depressed, Spanish catering is not normally
this bad.
From Málaga
See above in "getting from Málaga".
From other Spanish
Internet booking systems now function well so it is best to book seat online here ALSA, otherwise the normal procedure for getting a bus is to go to the station and get on the next available bus.
Getting taxis within Granada
It seems that it is not possible to book taxis in advance. However, if you phone for a taxi within Granada it rarely takes longer than 10 minutes for them to arrive. To get a taxi within Granada, just go to a taxi rank or phone 958 280 654.

Today I have chosen one of the most successful beers of recent times as my beer of the day. Few beers in the recent past have gained as many awards as Elland '1872 Porter'.
It claimed its first award back in 2004, but really reached its peak in the 2010's being three time winner of the Champion Winter Ale, and the ultimate accolade, Camra Supreme Beer of Britain in 2013.
So it must be good. It is a strong ruby porter,(obviously); it is English hopped but the real star of the beer are the four malts and the way they are used to provide complex depth and flavour. At is best they bring out notes of deep red wine, bitter chocolate, and coffee.
It is apparently based on an original 1872 recipe hence the name.
Locally it is fairly widely available, but is an almost regular at the Cherry Tree, and seems to be a fixture at the newly opened Plumbers.

Beer Of The Day - Elland 1872 Porter
Labels: 1872 Porter, elland brewery
2 comments:
A quick plug for Martin Ogley, the brewer responsible for bringing us 1872 Porter. He now runs 'Drink?' in Market Street, Hebden Bridge (nearly opposite the Old Gate pub). He has bottles beyond your wildest dreams, and in addition, has two hand pumps and four key kegs.

He wasn't the brewer, he was merely the brewery manager.
Dave Sanders is the brewer to my knowledge who created the recipe, which has been further tweeted by the current head brewer .

Light Echos from 400 Year Old Supernova Observed for the First Time (Time-lapse Video)
Its observations like these that really give us an idea about how big the cosmos actually is. A star in a small galaxy called the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC), some 160,000 light years from Earth, exploded as a massive supernova 400 years ago (Earth years that is). Combining the observations from an X-ray observatory and an optical telescope, scientists are currently observing the reflected light off galactic dust, only just reaching the Earth hundreds of years after the explosion…
Shakespeare's first run the stage production, Hamlet, will have been in full-swing. Galileo might have been experimenting with his first telescope. Guy Fawkes could have been plotting to blow up the British parliament. These events all occurred around the beginning of the 17th Century when a bright point of light may have been seen in the night sky. This point of light, in the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC), is a massive star exploding, ending its life in a powerful supernova.
Now, 400 years after the event, we can see a "supernova remnant" (SNR), and this particular remnant is known as SNR 0509-67.5 (not very romantic I know). The remnant of superheated gas slowly expands into space and still emits X-rays of various energies. The 400 year old explosion has even been imaged in great detail by the Chandra Observatory currently observing space in X-ray wavelengths. Analysis of the SNR indicates that it was most likely caused by a Type Ia supernova after analysis of the composition of the gases, in particular the quantities of silicon and iron, was carried out. It is understood that the supernova was caused when a white dwarf star in a binary system reached critical mass, became gravitationally unstable (due to fusion reactions in the core stopping) and exploded.
When SNR 0509-67.5 exploded all those years ago, it will have radiated optical electromagnetic radiation (optical light) in all directions of space. Now, for the first time, optical Blanco 4-meter telescope at Cerro Tololo Inter-American Observatory (Chile) has observed reflected light from within the LMC originating from the supernova, 400 years after the event. Using the (reflected) optical light and X-ray emissions directly from the supernova remnant, scientists have been able to learn just how much energy was generated by the explosion.
Astronomers have even assembled a time-lapse video from observations of the light "echo" from 2001 to 2006. Although there are only five frames to the video, you can see the location of the reflected light change shape as different volumes of galactic dust are illuminated by the flash of supernova light. In each progressive frame, the clouds of gas that become illuminated will be further and further away from us, we are effectively looking further back in time as the light "echoes" bounce off the galactic matter.
An amazing discovery.

So how does light from a Supernova 160,000 light years away reach us in just 400 years?
My thoughts exactly. I think the author needs to check his math. If the galaxy is 160,000 light years away and the event was first seen 400 years ago then wouldn't it have happened 160,400 years ago?
The supernova exploded 160,400 years ago. And now we are seeing the light from the superheated gas that glowed 160,000 years ago; 400 years after the supernova exploded. No need for the author to check his math.
On a lighter note (pun), since we recently observed an event more than halfway across the universe, maybe we'll one day see beyond the "other side of the universe" – and view into our own future to witness Andromeda colliding with our galaxy. Talk about theoretical…..;)
Exactly. Note "Earth years"

These are common mis-perceptions when discussing timing of astronomical events. Typically when we discuss a random astronomical event specifically in terms of observations, we talk about it happening at the time when we observed it here on Earth. Hence, we say things like 'that supernova exploded 400 years ago' if it were observed in the year 1608, or we name a supernova 1987a if we saw it in 1987. We do this even if the event actually occurred very far away (and hence long ago), for example 160,000 light years away. It is sort of taken as a given that 'this event occurred 400 years ago' means 400 years ago plus the time the light took to get here to observe it. It would be better to say 'blah event was observed 400 years ago' rather than 'blah event happened 400 years ago', but its not too hard to interpret once you get the hang of it…
On the other hand, often when discussing events in a more theoretical manner or in terms of a broader theory, astronomers and physicists will talk about the time something happened in the more absolute sense – e.g. – the sentence 'in the standard Big Bang model, the reionisation era occurred roughly 12.3 billion years ago' obviously doesn't mean that reionisation was observed 12.3 billion years ago on Earth plus the time the light took to reach us. Rather, as it refers to something more intrinsic to the universe in a broader model, an absolute date is assigned to it rather than a relative one.
As a general guideline, anything referred to in an observational sense uses the more relative 'when we saw it' dating scheme, whereas things referred to in a more theoretical sense generally use the absolute 'when it happened from the universe's perspective' scheme.
Although it can be a little fuzzy sometimes to work out which 'scheme' is being used when if you're not familiar with it, it eventually becomes second nature to slip between the two cases without even consciously thinking about it too much, depending on the situation.
Also, just concerning an error in the article –
"It is understood that the supernova was caused when a white dwarf star in a binary system reached critical mass, became gravitationally unstable (due to fusion reactions in the core stopping) and exploded."
Type 1a supernovae, it is thought, do indeed occur due to a white dwarf becoming unstable in a binary system, but the gravitational instability is not actually related to fusion ceasing in its core.
White dwarfs are the remnants of stars that have already finished fusing material at their core – they are small, extremely dense and hot. They maintain their shape against the force of gravity not from radiation pressure (like normal main sequence stars), of which there is not much due to core fusion having ceased, but due to the quantum mechanical effect of electron degeneracy. However, electron degeneracy can only withstand so much pressure, and when mass is inevitably transferred from the binary partner to the white dwarf and builds up on the surface, he process can finally support no more when the WD reaches a mass of about 1.4 Ms and it collapses as a type 1a supernova.
This minor error doesn't, of course, in any way detract from the great article. Keep 'em coming!
Alright, does anybody know about our Galaxy colliding with the Adromeda Galaxy? i mean its only light years away,
Ian, great attempt at explaining some of the confusing timing of astronomical events to the layman. Showing that something actually happened 160,000 light years ago was first seen 400 years ago and is still unfolding before our eyes now 400 years later while we develop instruments that can finally observe it in "slow motion" is pretty cool. You could also compare the movie at "one frame per year" for a human to understand what was going on to our normal movies or TV at 16-24 frames per second or even 30 or 60 frames per second which is common for events in our life here on earth to see in motion.
"Shakespeare's first run the stage production, Hamlet, will have been in full-swing. Galileo might have been experimenting with his first telescope. Guy Fawkes could have been plotting to blow up the British parliament. These events all occurred around the beginning of the 17th Century when a bright point of light may have been seen in the night sky"
Perhaps the author should know that the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) is visible from southern hemisphere.
'Only' 2.5 Million Light Years, and it's approaching at 300 km/s.
You do the math.
Essel, Galileo, Shakespeare, and Mr. Fawkes were all too busy to watch for bright specks in Galactic satellites. The Author wasn't suggesting they could have seen the nova, just that they were around at the same time. Not too many famous Australians from that time.
See Ian o'Neil!
no need for sensationalism1
Good writing!
To expand a touch on electron degeneracy and why white dwarfs explode..Degenerate electrons cannot change energy levels as they can in atoms of ordinary matter. They do, however, vibrate but relativity forbids those vibrations from reaching speed c. When enough material has fallen onto the dwarf gravity will win the battle that the electrons have been resisting. Their resistance, due to their repulsion of getting too near one another, has been holding the star together. But once gravity wins the battle, fusion takes place all over and through the star as electrons crash right into the nuclei from such a close proximity. The number of neutrinos released are enormous and the probability for neutrino collisions with surrounding nuclei and matter skyrockets. They slam into everything in the vicinity and blow the star to smithereens.
Here I am, 68 years old now. [not even a split second in Geological time] My mind has always been involved in some way or another, regarding…. "The Universe"
But, it didn't take me 68 years to become aware of "Infinity!" and studying everything I can find on the subject! Retired and having my computer, I have found endless [pardon the pun] sites to explore on the subject.
I find Infinity, to be the most important clue, to everything that exists or doesn't. Where I start is…prior to the "Big Bang Theory"… what was there waiting for that Big Bang to take place!? There had to be something. There was, another area of Infinity!
By thinking about it this way, Infinity seems to be considered? I use Logic when possible. For example, Infinity cancels out two important factors, Time and Distance! You can't go for ever, if you don't have the time to do it! Both can be done.
I have submitted my ideas of Infinity to many articles that are covering the findings of the "Universe" in some manner. Regarding Time, I say, it can't be anything but "Now." And
Nobody responds?
Especially, when I combine Infinity with the black backdrop, [ for the lack of a better word] which allows us to see the stars in the night sky, known as "Black Matter" or "Dark Matter" in the Science World. I believe it's the Color of Infinity, since, it has NO END! I may be laughed at, BUT…….Nobody Knows Any different!
If you venture into Deep Space, far enough to see our entire "Solar System, you will see No Evidence of Time! You will see places Dark on one side and Light on the other! WHAT?
PS: Nice article Bob.
I asked this a few years ago, and I ask again; Do we have enough resolution to map the galaxy as the wavefront of light passes through? Can we say that this cloud is here and that cloud is there and they are that big and shape? So what if it's a long term project. We could learn more from the outside than we could from inside the Milky Way about many structural features, if we could do the map.
Oh yeah, the sky is full of stars. It's hard to find an opening through them to see to the 14 billion L.Year limit. It looks black because our eyes can't amplify the light enough to see the stars without help. Black is absence of light, not a curtain in the background.
Definitely the author had his astromical grammer worng . According to earth year the incident was viewed 400 years back .
(actual event occured before 160,000 light years ago with repect to distance to meganallic cloud) note currently scientists are currently observing the reflected light off galactic dust —
Still an article from a reputed site like Universe today must have it news more clear & accurate ..
'Light Echos from 400 Year Old Supernova Observed for the First Time' Oh Come on Mr. O'Neill, if you are going to write about something make sure you are right, echoes from Supernova have been written about for years, try 'Sky and Telescope' for January 1990 (pg22), there's an indepth four page article with photographs of SN1987A and its light echo. and as for a 160,000 lt year object observed 400 lt years after going nova…
…oh by the way, it was not the 'British Parliament' but the English Parliament. The Scottish joined us when they lost money in Panama to create the following…
'Following the Treaty of Union in 1707, Acts of Parliament passed in the Parliament of England and the Parliament of Scotland created a new Kingdom of Great Britain and dissolved both parliaments, replacing them with a new Parliament of Great Britain based in the former home of the English parliament. The Parliament of Great Britain would later become the Parliament of the United Kingdom in 1801 when the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland was formed through the Act of Union 1800.'
See… Wikipedia
How interesting? The Express says'ers that followed my comment needs to get back to their Koolaid!
Clearly, I know that the Dark Sky at night is Not a Curtain backdrop! I also take issue with people who have Not found the proper definition of Time! And by not understanding
how Time plays a part in Human Minds.
For example, the only reason a Day of the week or Months of a year and so on, is because, We Humans, throughout the world…ALL AGREE to which one we are
referring to!
We prove this Two Times a Year! It's called Daylight Savings! Hmmmm. In the spring, WE Push Time forward one Hour and of course in the fall, WE Pull Time Back an hour!? All else is hogwash!
This is evidence that clearly Supports my claim! So, WE, TOGETHER, can manipulate what we call time, as long as we All Agree to it, period!
With this Subject Matter I'm learning about, is not necessarily what WE have been conditioned for! Time Does Not Exist!
I defy anyone to prove different to this…"It Is Never> Not Now! No matter when you are disturbed to wake up in the middle of the night, Reality will remain to be, Today!!
Yesterday and Tomorrow are ONLY OUR THOUGHTS OF! In other words…Tomorrow will NEVER ARRIVE! Don't you get it??
Mr. O'Neill, thank you for your article. I enjoyed it and I learned from it as well!
the "G"
PS: Also, there has Never been a moment
Without Temperature!, to some degree!
Wow. Absolutely incredible
That is really cool stuff!!
I saw a TV show not too long ago that did a "progression" video with the Hubble UDF that let you slowly see the pic as if you were diving through and into the Hubble Ultra Deep Field.
It was INCREDIBLE!!! It really gave you the impact of traveling back in time!!
Does anyone know if that "video" is available online and where it can be found?

Coolray has been working with Rocket Media since 2005. We've helped them with several website redesign projects and we take care of most of their digital marketing, including:
Coolray wanted the website to accomplish two main goals:
Many home pages overwhelm website visitors with content, confusing them and leading them to go elsewhere to solve their problem. To avoid this, we removed all clutter and broke down the content of the website into the 3 core reasons people visit Coolray's home page. (We also left an "other" option for the edge cases).
Once visitors select an option, they see only the content that's relevant to their choice.
Every page on Coolray's website is now easily accessible on any device—desktop, tablet, or smartphone.
Rather than have separate forms for their 3 main services — repairs, new installs and maintenance — we combined the forms and used logic to hide and show the right fields. Now, anyone who clicks on "contact" will find exactly what they need.

Mike Crabtree
A turn of the century era cabin complex just east of Eagle, Colorado that apparently used to be a stagecoach stop on Highway 6 is the home and base of operations for photographer Mike Crabtree. The main cabin, right on the Eagle River, serves as home for Mike, Mia and their children Jenny 18, Sarah 15, and Mikey 12. Another structure serves as a frame shop where Mike Crabtree frames his photographs. The other cabin serves as his Gallery and office with about hundred photographs on display. He prints most of his own photos on inkjet printers using archival papers and inks.
Mike Crabtree acquired the property in 1993 and saw the potential for what is now his dream come true. As a professional photographer back then with about 5 years in the trade he started out consigning his work to numerous galleries locally and in several other states and doing many one man shows in various places. This helped develop a loyal clientele and much word of mouth publicity that has resulted in a good portion of his current income from those who purchase his fine art work. The Vail Trail did a feature article on his work in 1990 and this resulted in some regional magazines contacting him to get on their stock call list. He began to be regularly published in these magazines. Mike has numerous cover photos in the Vail Valley Magazine, the Aspen Magazine, Mountain Places, and work published in Estates West, The Avid Golfer, American Photo and Popular Photography magazines.
Mike Crabtree currently sells his own stock photos and does assignment work as well as building his nature images plus weddings and portraits along with selling his work out of his gallery and to designers. A recent development is the privilege of displaying his photos at the fabulous Ritz in Bachelor Gulch.
Mike Crabtree had a great time as a mentor for American Photo and Popular Photography magazine till they switched to only Nikon shooters.
Mike Crabtree started shooting photos back in the late sixties while traveling with the Navy. A neighbor in the Chicago area gave him a Baby Brownie, a little box camera that was indestructible, and that started his love of making his visual statements on film. He's pretty much self taught along with help from respected photographer friends and artists that gave him honest critiques and pushed him to hone his craft. Lots of backpacking in the Colorado Mountains and travels elsewhere have been an enjoyable way for him to make photography an ongoing adventure. If you have time to visit his Gallery, give Mike a call at 970-390-9500 for directions & to make an appointment.

Gainful employment permeates so much of our lives.
Jobs are a source of income.
Jobs provide opportunities to use our talents and skills.
Jobs give our lives stability and purpose.
Despite the importance of our jobs, many of us are frustrated, unfulfilled and sick of our employers and the work we do. Curtesy of the "Great Recession" a lot of us are stuck in jobs that we don't like. Doomed to 8-10 hours every day of underperforming work.
Steve Jobs was right when he said: "The only way to do great work is to love what you do. If you haven't found it yet, keep looking. Don't settle. As with all matters of the heart, you'll know when you find it."
So how will you know when you have founded a job that you love? Here are two questions to consider:
- Do you love your job?
- Can you fall in love with your job?
If you answered "no" to one or both of the questions? Then, let me propose some ideas that may help spice up the romance.
1. Lead with your Strengths
Knowing, understanding and leveraging what you do well, will lead to more successful outcomes. Those successful outcomes will bring the respect, reward, and remuneration that can power up love for the job. Don't know your strengths? Go to www.strengthfinders.com to start on your path of discovery.
2. Fall in Love with the Boss
Bosses come in all shapes, sizes and colors; but, they all need one thing…support, help, and love from you. Your boss plays a critical role in your job. You need love from the boss for your success. Therefore, complete the circle by loving your boss! Find some falling in love tips, by reading my post Are You Leading Your Boss?
3. Turn Your Hopes and Dreams into Goals
We all fall in love with our hopes and dreams. However, these wishes remain fantasies until we set goals and put some muscles behind them. Establishing a goal using SMART or other criteria can make the impossible, possible. We all love it when a plan comes together or dreams come true? For more about the power of Goal Setting read my post Make Your Dreams Larger Than Your Memories.
4. Love to Learn
Being a lifelong learner provides platforms for exploring new applications and approaches; while making room for personal improvements. Check out Fred Pryor Seminars and Toastmasters two groups that have had a big impact on my lifelong love affair with learning.
5. Become a Go to Person
"Red" played by Morgan Freeman in the movie "The Shawshank Redemption" is beloved by both prisoners and guards; because of his ability to, as he put it "Get you things". Yes, loving your job is about your strengths, your boss, goal setting and learning. However, you can never truly love your job unless you love and care for the people you work with too. Becoming a "Go to Person" by being willing to share your knowledge, resources, time and talents will create waves and streams of love greater than any you could imagine. How to Win Friends and Influence People by Dale Carnegie is a timeless primer on how to get along. I read it again this summer and found new nuggets for my business and life.
Final Thoughts: Love is the Answer
Loving your job may seem out of step with the 21st Century business world; where profit, stock price and market share rule. However, love is timeless and will provide ventures far richer than money for scripture tells us:
Love is very patient and kind, never jealous or envious, never boastful or proud, never haughty or selfish or rude. Love does not demand its own way. It is not irritable or touchy. It does not hold grudges and will hardly even notice when others do it wrong. It is never glad about injustice, but rejoices whenever truth wins out. If you love someone, you will be loyal to him no matter what the cost. You will always believe in him, always expect the best of him, and always stand your ground in defending him. 1 Corinthians 13:4-8Living Bible (TLB)
This is how I do business; and I hope you will do business that way as well. Loving people and loving our jobs.

All the arguments of those who are against pension reforms will reach the CC and will be adopted by multiple approvals. RA citizen, Dashnaktsutyun party deputy Artsvik Minasyan expressed such confidence at "I am against" initiative's meeting on the Liberty Square.
He noted that the counterarguments in the application introduced by the deputies refer to violating the right of property, age discrimination and so on.
Artsvik Minasyan is sure that "if we preserve our unity, and don't undergo disagreements, we will win."
"Today's overcrowded meeting proves that if we are united, we will overcome any difficulty,- said Minasyan.
According to his words, after removing the mandatory component they are ready to negotiate with all the social layers of the population and develop new plans of pension reforms. They must be accepted only by referendum.
"Only in that case our people can say, that his will is fixed in the law, which must work,- said Artsvik Minasyan and added,- This struggle must be a success."

Calculating how Christopher B. Galvin earned his reward last year, as Motorola Inc. officials explain it, sounds like keeping a checklist.
The company's stock soared in value by 142 percent. Its total market value doubled. It pulled off a sizable merger, sailed through a restructuring and seems to have recovered from 1998, one of its worst years ever.
