Are there negative and positive harvests? Thanks...
1. Overall, do you think Hidden-Hand is dis-info?
2. Is this person any different than Hidden-Hand?:
i have to be honest,
i have always checked in on your "big" previous thread, about oct. 28, 2011.
i've always sort-of respected it, in the way you handled yourself and also that date coincides with the date that i heard in my own heart (despite the popular 12 21 2012 date...
do you know any more than hidden hand?
"They are a fundamentalist religion just like any of the others, they still believe this weird stuff, they follow these teachings, they actually buy into this. David Wilcock
When it comes to belief and 'in the know' there is little difference between others and the elite, most have been taught to believe in what they believe and truly believe they are 'in the know.' There is little difference between the elite and the many institutions of the world that have been led to believe they are 'in the know.' The majority of the world believes they are 'in the know' with what they believe.
how do you know more than a grain of sand? you do not,
its just a different grain of sand.
i'm not defending hidden hand, not anything you read should be taken to heart 100%. i fully believe in taking what resonates and discarding the rest.
the reason i feel you lack understanding, is that good and bad ARE illusions.
in a way you (or everyone, how can you know though as you are just you, now) can prefer "good" over "bad" but they are still just perceptions.
a. A set of principles of right conduct.
b. A theory or a system of moral values:
"They are not following dharma who resort to violence to achieve their purpose. But those who lead others through nonviolent means, knowing right and wrong, may be called guardians of the dharma."Buddha quotes (Hindu Prince Gautama Siddharta, the founder of Buddhism, 563-483 B.C.)
"If you think it is difficult to do the right thing with your life, think about how difficult it will be to live your life doing the wrong things. Many people think doing the right thing is hard, and I agree with them, it is hard. On the other hand, doing the wrong thing seems easy, but boy, oh boy, does it get hard fast. And undoing the wrong thing seems to take a lot more time and energy than we thought, all the while taking this effort away from doing the right thing. So before you go for that easy, comfortable wrong thing, take a second look at what will be involved in undoing it, and then do the right thing. Believe it or not, doing the right thing turns out to be doing the easiest thing."
"There is no easy formula for determining right and wrong livelihood, but it is essential to keep the question alive. To return the sense of dignity and honor to manhood, we have to stop pretending that we can make a living at something that is trivial or destructive and still have sense of legitimate self-worth. A society in which vocation and job are separated for most people gradually creates an economy that is often devoid of spirit, one that frequently fills our pocketbooks at the cost of emptying our souls."
"The truth of the matter is that you always know the right thing to do. The hard part is doing it."
sorry, my 3 cents.
On the other side of the veil, in "no time" we have all made it through. They also have very loving Higher/Future selves and though very lost and with distortions and mud caking their light, they are our beloved family.
no they don't and no they aren't
In no time, we could say to our family, and true love, be back in a "second", where there is no second, no "higher", "lower", "bigger", "smaller", "past", "future". But in that proveribal "second" all come back, though for some, a kazillion/trillion years have passed in this school.
I know that no time is this way no argument there
you're wasting your pity on these things it's not helping you. it's not winning you love points in and alternate reality . It might actually be hurting you as it is possibly losing you discernment points, it's funny to them
well to paraphrase they don't feel amusement
anyway I don't blame you if you haven't seen one it's hard to imagine a thing beyond connection or some would say redemption
Peace to you

I agree completely with your assessment on Hidden Hand. I never agreed with what he said, for they like us are in tests here, and they are not these special tough love teachers/Gods over our heads, hurting us for our own good. This is a distortion that the ones that they are puppets to are feeding their egos with. They also face the law of consequence and need to be reminded to wake up, for the ones who can who may be close, to seek their way home. Hidden Hand's message is a distortion.

This is how I've pictured it: composer Richard Danielpour, having asked Maya Angelou to create a cycle of poems that depict the course of a woman's life, sits at her ornate and beautiful dining room table. While holding her guests' hands, Dr. Angelou softly and eloquently reads her works of art and nourishes the hungry souls before her. The powerful echo of a soprano lingers in the room, as all who are present imagine Angela Brown's voice singing these works for audiences as delicately as a mother blows bubbles for her children.
Since it would be extremely inconvenient for Dr. Angelou to entertain large audiences in her dining room, hearing Angela Brown relay Danielpour's interpretation is the next best option. Knowing that Dr. Angelou's poems always stand well on their own, adding music and a soprano was a risky move. Overall, I think that it worked. Brown's mighty voice guided us through the progression of a woman's emotional and spiritual life, from the ignorance of a young girl, blissfully and arrogantly unafraid of life, to the wisdom of a mature lady, who finally understands true love. The only moment that seemed awkward to me was during the first poem, "Little Girl Speakings." The music was very somber and did not quite fit the chirpy and precocious narrator. Bottom line: I love Maya Angelou and I love the symphony, so I was a very pleased little lady during this performance.
And speaking of Maya Angelou, she has quite the affinity for the classics. (I don't really know that—I'm just grasping for an easy transition.) Assuming that she enjoys them, Dr. Angelou probably has Herman Melville's Moby-Dick sitting somewhere in her library. And she probably liked the book more than I did. Though I respect the allegorical themes in the novel (man v. nature, man v. God, man v. self, etc.), I hated the belabored descriptions of the boat and the whaling industry. Much to my surprise and relief, I loved Peter Mennin's Concertato for Orchestra. Menin said that it "depicts the emotional impact of the novel as a whole rather than musically describing isolated incidents occurring in the novel." And it did. The music was extremely emotional, taking the listener to new heights at every turn. It maintained the allegorical effect without the copious details.
It almost inspired me to read Moby Dick again. Almost.

The Big Lie being told by President Barack Obama, Treasury Secretary Jack "Loop-de" Lew, and Democrats in general is that Republicans are pushing for a default on the national debt. Lew said it again on Sunday's edition of Fox News Sunday, telling host Chris Wallace "the question of threatening to cause a default of the United States–not until 2011 did it become a positive agenda," he said, claiming Republicans had backed default.
It is a lie that Lew, one of the villains of the 2011 debt crisis (he "just knows how to say no," House Speaker John Boehner complained), has told before, but never quite so colorfully as to claim it was a positive, i.e. deliberate and explicit, agenda item for Republicans. He obviously is trying to convince the public that the GOP still holds that view today–though it never did in the first place, not in 2011 and not in 2013.
What some Republicans said in 2011 was that passing the Aug. 2, 2011 debt ceiling deadline without a deal would not mean default because the Treasury could still pay the U.S. government's principal, interest, and contractual obligations. It might not be able to pay for some government spending, but that would not violate the full faith and credit of the United States. It would just force the government to prioritize.
In 2013, Republicans have given that argument legislative teeth with the Full Faith and Credit Act, also known as McClintock-Toomey, after the bill's respective sponsors in the House and Senate. The Act would require the Treasury to spend on debt obligations to prevent the country from going into default in the event that the debt ceiling is not raised. That is precisely why Senate Democrats are blocking it; they want the threat of default.
By the Democrats' own standards, many of the alternatives they have floated–from the president raising the debt ceiling unilaterally, to the government minting a $1 trillion coin–would also constitute a form of default, since the first would require the president to break the law and the second would amount to a devaluation of the dollar on a massive scale, damaging creditors to help the world's biggest debtor manage its problems.
The fact is that Republicans haven't called for default. If they had done so, Democrats would be able to name those who had. In classic Alinsky fashion, used to devastating effect against Todd Akin last year, they would seize on one Republican who had advocated default, even in jest or error, and elevate those remarks to tarnish the entire party. But they haven't, because no Republican has taken that position. And none will.

KW Automotive has released pictures of its new wing door hinge kit for the 2012 Chrysler 300. Built in Germany by its LSD Doors division, the new wing door hinge kit is a bolt-on affair and doesn't require welding or painting to install. It bolts to the same mounting points as the factory hinges do on the A-pillar and door.
The LSD kit comes with everything needed to transform the stock doors to "Lambo" style wing doors. The kit includes a cable kit, mounting hardware, and accessories, as well as LSD's Guided Roller System (GRS). Initially the door opens out 30 degrees like a conventional door hinge kit; then it rotates up. The GRS uses an adjustable roller guide to control the door as it opens out and rotates up through its two-dimensional travel. Adjustable, mechanical stops hold the doors in the open position while preventing the doors from opening too far.
KW Automotive and LSD Doors says its wing door hinge kits passed a side-impact crash test at one of the German Federal Motor Transport Authority's accredited laboratories and complies with European Directive 96/27/EC and comes with a German TÜV Parts Certificate. KW Automotive didn't mention whether the door hinge kit met U.S. Federal safety standards.

From Temple, Georgia, USA:
Both my brother and sister have type 1, so, periodically I check my eight year old son's blood sugar. Over the last year, it has been up and down, ranging from about 90 to 130 mg/dl [5.0 to 7.2 mmol/L]. Since he had no other symptoms, I wasn't worried.
Last week, I started noticing that he wants to take frequent naps, which is NOT something he normally does. I can't tell if he is unusually thirsty because he has always been a big drinker. He may have lost some weight, but I'm not sure. At the doctor's office about a month ago, he weighed 58 pounds. I weighed him at home yesterday and he weighed 55 pounds. That could just be the difference in the scales.
Yesterday, I decided to take his blood sugar, just in case. It was 163 mg/dl [3.5 mmol/L]. He hadn't eaten anything in about three hours. He played outside for about an hour and it came down to 132 mg/dl [7.3 mmol/L]. His fasting blood sugar this morning was 91 mg/dl [5.1 mmol/L]. What do you think about this? Could this be an early sign of type 1?
You have a single very high blood glucose reading that is not normal. I would do what I call a blood glucose profile for three days in a row. Test just prior to breakfast, lunch and dinner plus one to two hours after each of these meals. The normal values should be less than 100 mg/dl [5.6 mmol/L] before eating and less than 140 mg/dl [7.8 mmol/L] (some would say less than 126 mg/dl [7.0 mmol/L]) afterwards. If this occurs, then he is probably making sufficient insulin. Make sure that your technique is correct and that there is no food or alcohol on the finger site that might interfere with the test results. If you are still worried, then consult with your physician and consider consultation with a pediatric endocrinologist for islet cell and GAD-65 antibody testing, etc. The actual risks for someone with both an aunt and uncle with type 1 diabetes are probably less than 5%, but for any individual, the specific risks are not truly known.

Adolf Hitler's foreign policy aimed at establishing a European empire for Germany through war. This policy required the rapid expansion of Germany's military capabilities. The Geneva Disarmament Conference, beginning in 1932, sought to avoid another European war by negotiating a reduction in armaments. Hitler repudiated this effort by withdrawing Germany from the conference in October 1933. At the same time, he rejected collective security in international affairs by withdrawing from the League of Nations. Instead, Nazi Germany embarked on a vast military construction program.

Heritage series Tamko Shingles are Laminated Asphalt Shingles that are helpful in not just protecting your roof from winds and harmful rays of sun, but they also add the required aesthetic to your roof. Talk about aesthetics and Tamko Heritage Shingles add a striking dimension and replicate the natural tone of a wood shake. To top it all, the cut of the shingles is uniquely shaped and the edges are well polished to give it a smooth and rustic finish ensuring that you get the very contemporary design for your house.
Tamko Heritage Series shingles are available in four categories: Vintage, Premium, Woodgate and Heritage and all of these categories have an array of colours to choose from. Striking and distinctive colour palette ranging from dramatically bold to contemporary to classic coupled with longest up-front protection and treated with algae resistant component, Heritage Series Shingles have got it all.
They will install the shingles on your roof in a very limited time and also safe manner so that you don't have to compromise on your time. Have a look at some of the unique features of these shingles:
- Made with excellent material that is the reason for the longer protection and safety of your roofs. The materials used to make these high quality shingles include double layer fibreglass mat. This is the material that gives these shingles the required strength.
- They have been coated not on just one side but both the sides by means of weathering-grade asphalt along with mineral granules (ceramic) to provide you the required protection from the wind and highly dangerous storms.
- Since Heritage series shingles are bonded together with two layers, it makes them stronger. These shingles are heavier, exceptionally durable as well as long-lasting and at the same time provide a better visual effect.
- Self sealing asphalt strip ensures resistance to high speed wind. This strip ensures that your roof is protected from the wind that goes up-to the speed of 130 MPH.
- The Vintage and the Woodgate categories have natural deep shadow lines that provides the look and feel of a real wood shake. This is the look most people want for their roof but they are unable to get it because they don't want to incur the expenses of installing the wooden roofs or the liabilities that come along with them.
- Whereas, the shadowtone granules and random cut saw-tooth design blend of Heritage and Premium categories add extra depth as well as richness to your roof.
- Tamko Heritage Shingles are tested thoroughly and are in compliance with UL 790/ASTM E 108, Class A, ASTM D 7158 Class H (150 mph), ASTM D 3161, Type I, Class F (110 mph), UL 2390/ASTM D 6381 Class H (150 mph) etc.
What to consider before installing Heritage Asphalt Shingles
This goes without saying that installing a new roof is viewed upon as some kind of long-term investment and there is no way that you would want to chose the wrong product and then regret later. No doubt, Asphalt shingles are very easy to install and are comparatively cheaper and hence are widely considered as a roofing material. It is a known fact that Asphalt grade shingles have better performance in areas with cooler climates; however, if you try to install the same when the weather is cold, it will damage your shingles. First lay them flat and let them soften by sunlight, at the same time make sure that you have enough attic ventilation as poor ventilation tend to have an adverse side-effect on Asphalt shingles. Also, it is highly recommended that you get in touch with an expert and qualified contractor as they have the right knowledge on how these shingles behave in different climatic conditions.
- The Tamko Heritage shingles have been known to provide the best protection to your roof. They can withstand wind speeds in which most shingles of other brands fail to provide protection.
- The company provides pre roofing layering to ensure that the shingles don't come off easily and remain on your roof for a long time.
- The tamko shingle series come in various colours and the materials used to manufacture these shingles are extremely top notch.
- There are various colours available in the series of Tamko Heritage shingles but the availability is confined to specific states in the country like Philisburg, Dallas, Tuscaloosa, Joplin, Frederick and a couple of others.
- These varieties of the Tamko shingles have given problems in roof protection after 15 years. It was unable to withstand hurricanes like Sandy. Also, the roofing might have a tarnished black layer after 10 years of use.
- The granules of the Tamko shingles come off and fall apart after some time. This will cost you more in the long run.
- Apart from the tarnishing of these shingles, you might face a problem when the color starts to come off. This is one of the problems that have been mentioned a number of times in the Tamko Heritage reviews. So, one of the problems that you might as well have to deal with.
As mentioned above, the Tamko shingles are available in a myriad of colours to choose from. All these colours are elegant and provide the look that you want for your home.
- Rustic slate
- Olde English Pewter
- Weathered wood
- Rustic Black
- Rustic Cedar
- Rustic redwood
- Thunderstorm grey
- Autumn brown
- Mountain slate
- Natural timber
- Painted desert
- Harvest Gold
- Black Walnut
- Charcoal
- Fossil Grey
- Chestnut
- Slatetone Grey
- Oxford Grey
- Rustic Evergreen
- Virgina Slate
- Aged Wood
- Cedar Wood
- Black Sage
- Cabin Wood Brown
These colours are classy and have the best effect on every kind of roof. As the colours are confined by region, do find the colours that are available for your region.
Coming to the warranty of the Tamko shingles, they give a warranty of 15 years for protection of your roof from high speed winds. Also, they provide protection against algae and give you an algae proof roof for around 10 years. Moreover, if you have problem in the shingles before the warranty period is up, you will get full assistance from the company representatives who act on their words quickly. They will replace all the shingles in a week ensuring that you are not disturbed from your normal routine when the work goes on. The transferable warranty on these shingles comes for around 5 years. Over all the warranty period of the Tamko shingles is great and even if you encounter any problem, it will be fixed soon.

Invasive weeds are destroying our native plant communities. This invasion is transforming the natural landscapes that make New Zealand unique. It's also killing the native animals that depend on those habitats.
It's happening in our wetlands, coastal dunes, shrublands and bush. The process is too slow to see but never stops. Time lapse photos can reveal the relentless progression of weed invasion.
If we are to preserve our natural landscapes and native species, we have to fight a 'War on Weeds'.
To win this war we must all work together. We invite you to join with DOC and conservation groups nationwide to fight the War on Weeds. Watch a video about a group waging war on weeds in pristine native bush at Lake Kaniere near Hokitika.

A Fourth Title For Duke, Thanks To The 'Big 3'
April 5, 2010
INDIANAPOLIS (AP) -The Cameron Crazies found a new use for one of their favorite taunts.
When the NCAA title game was over, they broke out the "Four! Four! Four!" chant that's usually the preferred way to harass Duke's foul-prone opponents.
This time, they were counting championships.
And they have the Blue Devils' "Big Three" to thank for it, because Jon Scheyer, Kyle Singler and Nolan Smith simply wouldn't be denied the title they so desperately craved.
The Blue Devils held on to beat Butler 61-59 Monday night for their first national title since 2001, and once again, the three stars did most of the heavy lifting - though they needed some timely help from the biggest player on the roster.
"People have said we don't have the first-team All-Americans, this and that, but we have guys who do all the little things," Smith said. "We work so well together, and this team has done whatever it takes to get wins. We did that today."
Singler scored 19 points, Scheyer added 15 and Smith 13. All three made the all-tournament team, and Singler was selected the most outstanding player at the Final Four.
But title No. 4 wasn't secure until 7-foot-1 center Brian Zoubek got a hand in Gordon Hayward's face on a missed shot with 7 seconds left, hit a free throw with 3.6 seconds to go and - after missing the second one on purpose - held his breath as Hayward's half-court heave at the buzzer clipped off the glass and the rim.
Once the Blue Devils exhaled, they were on top again.
"It's hard for me to say it, to imagine that we're the national champions," coach Mike Krzyzewski told the crowd.
Maybe, but there's no doubting that the "Big Three" made it all possible.
They had to.
The Blue Devils (35-5) relied on them so heavily all season that there were moments during the championship game when it seemed they might crumble under the weight of their teammates.
The Singler-Scheyer-Smith trio, the nation's most productive threesome, entered averaging 53.4 points per game and had scored 69 percent of the Blue Devils' points this season.
So it was no surprise that Duke went to its "Big Three" down the stretch.
With less than 5 minutes left and the Blue Devils leading by one, the ball was inbounded to Scheyer. He swung it to Smith, who found Singler cutting to the wing and passed to the junior sharpshooter. His jumper swished through to make it 58-55 with 4:46 left.
That wound up being the final field goal of the season for the Blue Devils, whose only three points the rest of the way came on free throws.
"It really wasn't about me shooting the ball," Singler said. "It's about the team, and we needed everyone in these last two games to get where we are right now."
Some more than others. Duke's bench went scoreless against Butler, and managed only three shots, while the guys who do the dirty work - Zoubek and forward Lance Thomas - struggled for a while inside.
The Bulldogs had outrebounded the Blue Devils by seven at halftime and threatened to become the first team in the tournament to hold a rebounding edge against the biggest team in Coach K's three decades in Durham.
The Blue Devils eventually eked out a 37-35 edge on the boards - perhaps none bigger than the one Zoubek grabbed after Hayward's forced fall-away jumper in the final seconds.
"I knew that me getting a rebound would be a huge play," Zoubek said. "We really stepped it up in the second half."
That, and Hayward's last-gasp miss, helped put these Blue Devils in the elite company of players who hung championship banners at Cameron Indoor Stadium: Laettner, Hurley, Hill, Battier - and now Smith, Scheyer and Singler, after they helped Duke avoid the supporting role in Butler's real-life version of "Hoosiers."
"I think we won because of these guys," Krzyzewski said. "And as good as the Butler story is and was, their story is pretty good, too."
When it was finally over, those clever Cameron Crazies who made the trip to Hoosier Country busted out their chant, letting everyone know how many titles they have. They're only one behind top rival North Carolina, which claimed its fifth tournament crown last year. Then the Crazies chanted "One more year" toward Singler, who hasn't said yet whether he will return for his senior season.
And when Coach K finally clipped the final piece of championship net, he kissed it and held it aloft for the Duke fans to savor.
"I love this team and it's our last day together, and what a way to celebrate our last day together," Krzyzewski said.

1 - 1" tee
the 60" bar that runs horizontally under the table will connect to the 1" tee on both ends
when you are done building the base attach the flanges to the underside of the table ( it is easier to place the top on the floor good side down)
It sound more complicated then it really is, it took about 10 minutres to build the base. I made one half and my 12 year old son made the other half and we put it together. We attached the barnwood top onto the base in the kitchen.
I purchased my supplies at ACE HARDWARE. They are also available at Lowes, Home Depot, and many other suppliers
Hope you like this project as much as I did, Lori

Jun Stanley
Case File:
Jun Stanley. Chef.
Found Jan 12th around 10pm.
Time of Death placed at about 945 pm.
She suffered several lacerations, and blunt trauma. Some where from a knife, some from broken glass, some wounds had pieces of fingernails left in them as if she was scratched as well.
The knife was found. It matched the wounds on the previous two victims. There were no fingerprints on it.
Police were called after neighbors reported a sounds of a fight coming from in the apartment. They arrived about 7 minutes after the call, after no answer they entered the home and found her dead in the shower. The water was still running. Again, the security cameras found nobody else entering or leaving the apartment.

I have recently created two fun interactive flip book packs that I wanted to give you a look at!
These four page flip books give students practice with short vowels and letters! They are interactive, so each page engages the students with different activities, such as writing, finding, cutting, gluing, sorting, reading, and more!
Check out the Letter Books first!!
Color and cut.
Stack and staple.
Page 1: "Let's Find"
Students will look for the given letter in a box of 32 uppercase and lowercase letters. They can highlight, color, or circle these letters.
Page 2: Let's Read
Students will read a sentence about each letter. There are three stars on each sentence for fluency. There is also a picture clue for students struggling with decoding.
Page 3: "Let's Trace"
Students will trace uppercase and lowercase letters. Then, they will write a sentence about a word that letter starts with.
Page 4: "Let's Sort"
Students will cut and glue pictures. They will need to sort each picture into two categories: words the begin with the given letter or words that do not begin the given letter.
Now, check out the short vowel books!
Color and cut.
Stack and staple.
Add a crafty head and hands to make it look great on a wall or bulletin board.
Short a- Pam; Short e- Ned; Short i- Jill; Short o- Tom; Short u- Gus
Page 1: "Let's Write"
Students will look at the short vowel pictures and determine how to spell them in the letter boxes.
Page 2: "Let's Sort"
Students will read a group of short vowel words, then cut and glue them into the correct columns. They must determine if they are real or nonsense words.
Page 3: "Let's Read"
Students will read sentences with short vowel words within them, then find the picture that matches the sentence. This helps with short vowel decoding, plus comprehension.
Page 4: "Let's Build"
Students will cut and glue letters for each short vowel picture that is shown, then practice their neatest handwriting while rewriting the short vowel words they just spelled.

Counting both technology and telecom stocks, the Dow Jones Industrial Average boasts seven stocks that fall into either category, which represents nearly 20% of the overall weighting in the composite. But these aren't your run-of-the-mill growth companies. In fact, most of the companies in the index fit the bill of mature, dividend-paying stalwarts, versus the kinds of high-growth businesses more often associated with the tech or telecom space. However, that doesn't necessarily mean these companies aren't worth investors' time. The Fool's technology editor recently sat down to sift through the tech stocks on the Dow and find the best ones. Today, we're putting semiconductor powerhouse Intel under the microscope. Listen on to find out if today's stock is a winner or loser in this space.
When it comes to dominanting markets, it doesn't get much better than Intel's position in the PC microprocessor arena. However, that market is maturing, and Intel finds itself in a precarious long-term situation if it doesn't find new avenues for growth.

ICAI opposes move to exclude CAs from carrying out valuation
The Institute of Chartered Accountants of India (ICAI) and four other accounting associations have written to the Central Board of Direct Taxes (CBDT) opposing the latter's move to amend Section 11 UA of the Income Tax (I-T) Act.
The step will pave the way for excluding chartered accountants from carrying out valuation of unquoted shares.
Related Stories
No Related Stories Found
Rule 11UA provides for determining the fair market value of various specified assets under Section 56 of the Income-tax Act, 1961.
One of its sub-rules provides an option to the assessee to determine the fair market value (FMV) of unquoted shares with the help of a merchant banker or an accountant.
The recent amendment has excluded the term 'accountant'.
ICAI believes the paucity of available merchant bankers could jack up costs of determining the FMV of unquoted shares. The statutory body reckons that there are over 11 lakh unlisted companies but only 200 merchant bankers. On the other hand, there are over three lakh CAs.
"This will cause undue hardship to the assessees. Moreover, the merchant bankers are employing a good number of chartered accountants and for the impugned valuations also, they would ultimately be utilising the services of CAs," the ICAI said.
The manner of valuation provided by Rule 11UA(2)(b) predominantly mentions application of discounted cash flow method, and CAs have the competence to understand business and cash flow projections, the ICAI felt.
The body had taken several initiatives in the recent past to encourage its members to learn and attain expertise in the field of valuation.
At its 375th meeting recently, for instance, the council of the ICAI issued valuation standards to ensure uniformity in approach and quality of valuation output by CAs.
Besides the ICAI, four other accounting bodies – the Bombay Chartered the Accountants' Society, the Ahmedabad Chartered Accountants' Association, the Lucknow Chartered Society and the Karnataka State Chartered Accountants' Association – have jointly written to the CBDT.
According to them, the Companies Act, 2013, recognises CAs as being eligible for registration as valuers under Section 247 of the said Act.
Moreover, various regulations issued under the Foreign Exchange Management Act, 1999, require CAs to issue a certificate on the discounted cash flows.
Valuation of business and financial instruments along with other assets has been gaining importance, particularly after implementation of the Indian accounting standards.
Valuation plays a key role in financial reporting as well as areas such as solvency, mergers and acquisitions, among others.

Who doesn't love an adventure run that mixes charity, fun and underpants?! Mud Runs have mud, Color Runs have colorful paint, but the First Annual Philadelphia Cupid's Undie Run just may trump them all. The Cupid Undie run in Philadelphia mixes frigid February temperatures and 500 runners stripping down to their undies to brave the cold for The Children's Tumor Foundation. The "mile-ish" race began at the Urban Saloon on Fairmount Avenue Philadelphia on February 9th with temperatures below freezing.
Photo Gallery
The Cupid's Undie Run Philadelphia was a ton of fun, but the event also "puts the hilarity in charity." The Philadelphia race occurs simultaneously with other undie races of the same name all over America. According to Philadelphia Race Director, Dan Frenia, 1 in 3000 are affected by NF, or Neurofibromatosis characterized by spots and neurofibromas on or under the skin. Enlargement and deformation of bones and curvature of the spine (scoliosis) may also occur. Occasionally, tumors develop in the brain, on cranial nerves, or on the spinal cord. About half of those with NF also have learning disabilities. Frenia added that over 8000 runners participated in Cupid Undie Runs worldwide and raised over one million dollars, combined, to fight the disease.

Light-gated ion channels. Recently, a novel class of ion channels, the light-gated channelrhodopsins (ChR1 and ChR2) has been discovered. They possess a seven transmembrane helix motif similar to that of other microbial rhodopsins and were investigated in part by electrophysiological methods in heterologously expressing cells (Nagel et al, 2002, 2003, 2005b). These channels represent a long sought-after and unique tool for neurobiological applications (Fig. 1) because they allow the light-induced depolarization of cells. This was demonstrated in nerve cells as well as in excitable cells in transgenic animals by induction of light dependent behavior as well as restoration of light reactions in a blind mouse. Meanwhile, ChR2 has found a worldwide application in many neurobiologically oriented laboratories. The mechanism of these ion channels is still unknown. Therefore, the function and structure of these membrane proteins need to be investigated in detail. By determining simultaneously the photocycle and the kinetics of the channel current the spectroscopic intermediate of the photocycle, which represents the open state of the channel, was identified (Bamann et al, 2008). By noise analysis the single channel conductance was determined to 35 fS. In the same paper it was demonstrated that ChR2 acts as a leaky light-driven proton pump (Feldbauer et al, 2009). In the future we are searching to construct channelrhodopsins with higher light sensitivity and larger single channel conductance, which would be desirable for neurobiological applications. New molecules are under construction which allow the activation and inactivation of nerve cells at different wavelengths with high spatial precision.
Structural analysis by 2D and 3D crystallization is under study with the Departments of Structural Biology and Molecular Membrane Biology.
The group is a member of an international consortium on the recovery of vision by use of ChR2 and of the Bernstein Center for Computational Neuroscience Göttingen for network analysis.

During our session on 23 January regarding the
funding of cemeteries, I undertook to send you some further information
and clarification of the answers that I provided. This is set
out below.
Funding for Cemeteries and Crematoria is provided
through a sub-block of the Environmental, Protective and Cultural
Services (EPCS) block to authorities with district services responsibilities
(ie Shire Districts, Met Districts, Shire Unitaries and London
The EPCS block provides funding for all local
authorities' revenue expenditure not explicitly covered elsewhere
(it was formerly known as the All Other Services Block). In order
to keep the formula relatively simple, rather than use specific
indicators for each service covered, the methodology allocates
funding according to a formula that is thought to be appropriate
on the whole for the wide range of services covered.
The main indicator used is called "enhanced
population". This is a measure of the client group for the
EPC services, and is basically the resident population of an area
plus an uplift for commuters and tourists. The allocation is then
topped up for areas with additional cost pressuresthese
are assessed as relating to areas with extremes of population
density or sparsity, deprivation measures and in the south east
and London, higher wage pressures. In response, therefore, to
the question by Sir Paul Beresford (Q.550), there is no specific
indicator for cemeteries.
For 2001-02 the EPCS block as a whole will be
some £8,586.9 million. The district services sub-block of
the EPCS block, which includes the funding for cemeteries and
crematoria, will be some £6,014.0 million. Last year the
corresponding figures were £8,231.0 million and £5,759.8
million respectivelythis year's figures represent increases
of 4.3 per cent and 4.4 per cent.

a single-engine plane flown by micron's ceo, steve appleton, had to crash land in an idaho desert. ceo appleton was with another micron employee, and both received head and back injuries that, luckily, weren't critical. although flying single-engined planes around is the type of thing ceo types seem to enjoy, i wonder how the micron board of directors now feels about the potential of losing its ceo to a plane crash, especially with the plane characterized as a "… stunt plane." typically companies take out large life insurance policies on their ceos so that if something happens they can at least collect some cash after the stock value takes a major hit …

Based on our rich discussions and dynamic presentations we want to know, what are your NOW WHAT? plans? Please consider taking some time to reflect on all you learned over our two days together. Once you've gathered your thoughts and downloaded all the new apps you discovered, we challenge you to take a few minutes to write down your plans for action post-conference. Publish them on your blog and share the link via Twitter and the #eel13 hashtag. If you're not a blogger, email them as a Word document to email@example.com and we will publish them on the conference blog. Whatever your preference, please take time to complete this critical piece, so we can continue to share and grow together well past our two days together!

How to Take Advantage of the Conference Backchannel
With Ebooks in Early Literacy: Science, Design, Decision kicking off this Friday, attendees should be planning to maximize the learning potential of the event. One thing that should be part of the plan is participating in the conference's backchannel.
Wondering what a backchannel is? In The Backchannel, Cliff Atkinson defines a backchannel as:
…a line of communication created by people in an audience to connect with others inside or outside the room, with or without the knowledge of the speaker at the front of the room. Usually facilitated by Internet technologies, it is spontaneous, self-directed, and limited in time to the duration of a live event.Derek Bruff, assistant director at the Vanderbilt University Center for Teaching and senior lecturer in mathematics at Vanderbilt explains the importance of a backchannel in a post on The Chronicle of Higher Education,
A Twitter backchannel at a conference can provide participants a way to share ideas and resources from the sessions they attend, connect people who might not have connected otherwise, and broaden the conference discussion to include those not physically present.

Growing up in Eastern Washington I was 15 when the Zags made the cinderella run into the elite 8 that propelled them onto the national stage. We used to spend summers at Gonzaga team camp, and looked up to all of the great players that spent time in Spokane. Today was a historic day for Gonzaga, and their first #1 ranking in school history (First for any team in WA, at that!). And to top it off, Coach Mark Few was fly fishing (more than likely on the Grande Ronde) and couldn't be reached for comment.
This fall while on the Ronde with my Dad, we ran into Coach Few and his young sons at Boggan's Oasis on their way out the door to go fishing. No one said anything, or bugged him for pictures or autographs like the celebrity he is, he was just another fisherman sharing a second great sport with his sons, the same way my Dad did with me.
March Madness is the best thing in sports, and hopefully this is the year that the Zags make it to the Final Four!

Mazatlán, Mexico (PRWEB) July 18, 2014
El Cid Timeshare is pleased to announce that Mazatlán will be hosting the 14th annual Gran Pacific Triathlon this year. The event will be taking place from July 18 to July 19 and will be located along the gorgeous malecón. The Gran Pacific Triathlon is considered to be in the top 10 of this type of event in all of Latin America, and is largest in all of Mexico.
Mazatlán has quickly established itself as one of the top venues in the world for a triathlon and has much to offer athletes who travel to the "Pearl of the Pacific." El Cid Timeshare states that guests from all around the world have been known to travel to Mexico for this event and try their hand at winning this prestigious event. For those who are unaware of what a triathlon entails, it is a brutal sporting event that requires participants to complete long distance swimming in the ocean, biking, and running.
El Cid Timeshare knows that Mazatlán is the ideal destination to host such an event, as it provides a variety of amenities and benefits to both the athletes participating in the race and for those who travel to the destination as spectators. As the sun shines bright in the sky with the perfect amount of ocean breeze, Mazatlán offers the perfect weather for athletes as they endure these difficult triathlon events. Aside from the triathlon, Mazatlán is quickly popping up on the map as one of the premier destinations to hold world-class events and tournaments. This city is also home to annual fishing tournaments, golf championships, and more.
Whether people are partaking in the triathlon or just simply watching the event, there is plenty to do in Mazatlán. El Cid Timeshare says that visitors should check out the plethora of historical sites that the city has to offer, which is one of the reasons that makes Mazatlán so unique compared to other Mexican destinations. Guests are able to check out Mayan ruins, the Plaza Machado, the Angela Peralta Theater, Old Mazatlán, and much more. When the athletes are not sprinting down the malecón for the triathlon, this is the perfect place to stroll down by the beach, admire the city and watch the waves crash in the ocean.

Saw a white '14-'15 DE tonight that I had not seen before. It was unusual in that it not only had fog lights, but also the seldom-seen chrome fog light trim. If I see it again I will snap a pic. Meanwhile, here is a Plasma '15 ES that is always parked at an apartment complex kitty-corner to where I work. This pic was snapped some time ago, but the car is still there.
This white '17 ES was spotted in June of 2017 on southbound I-5 near downtown Seattle. I suspect this car was being moved from one dealership to another, possibly after being sold (still had it's window sticker and no temporary registration in rear window). I was stuck in traffic, of course, because it's freakin' Seattle...
This Kiwi '14 ES was spotted this past summer in the parking lot of my local Target.
There! Now I am all caught up!

ROCHERSTER HILLS (WWJ) – They're scrappers. Trash pickers essentially.
But this husband and wife team from Rochester Hills have discovered a whole new live together, thanks to garbage, reports WWJ's Charlie Langton.
The industrious duo, Jan and Steve McCoury, make the search for trashy treasure their personal 'us' time.
"It's Steve and I's alone time, you know, we get away from the kids, we have fun, we talk about what goes on during the day. We have a riot," said Jan.
She tells WWJ that they enjoy "going around and looking at all the different houses and the landscape. We're meeting a lot of people doing this. It's kind of our fun time together."
Sunday through Thursday the couple will spend hours driving around Oakland County in search of the tossed out treasures.
"We found a one hundred year old German clock, we've found car doors and parts for our son's car – we've found a whole bunch of cool stuff."
The couple find the regular scrapper outings give them extra cash for expenses and allows them to be generous to their post high school children – giving them gas money and generally helping them out.
Besides, "it's fun," laughed Jan.

We had a really fun spring break this year. We rented cabin and headed to Nagano to snowboard. On our way to Hakuba, we stopped at Matsumoto castle. It was a great way to break up the car ride and the kids enjoyed touring the grounds and castle.
Once we arrived in Hakuba, we unloaded the car and then grabbed some pizza for dinner.
The next morning we got up to snowboard and play in the snow.
There was a kid area with sleds and snow toys. It was a fun place for the twins and also Ashton and Weston when they needed a break from snowboarding.
On our 2nd day there, we put the twins in the daycare at the ski resort so that Tommy, me, Ashton and Weston could all board together. It was a fun day and the twins had a great time as well.
We took a break back at home in Tokyo on Thursday.
Friday morning we drove out to Hakone to the open air museum. A lot of sculptures and paintings and 2 areas for the kids to climb and play.
It's been a fun week and now begins our countdown to our move.
Only 2 months left in Japan!

Office politics
7 RepliesJump to last post
What is the consensus of the group regarding the politics of office space in brokerages? Is it me, or is an inordinate amount of time and energy spent on office location and size?Have any of the more successful brokers you've worked with broken with this tradition, by leading the pack and showing others that success is not a measurement of the cubic footage that has an engraved name plate, with the space mostly used for holding golf memorobilia?
Yes. Waste of time. At my old Merrill Office a very successful 20 yr vet was just downsized, not because he's doing poorly, but because someone else came along and beat him. Who cares. Just get more business.
I know a guy who started at ML as a trainee and wasn't even given an office at all after getting to over 40MM in AUM. Several people transfered from other firms and got the space, some of whom brought fewer assets. This guy was justifiably pissed and moved his book for a decent sign on at Prudential-Bache. Worrying about a specific office is silly but having one at all is not so much an issue. It's a very clear sign that you don't value an employee to not offer one in general.
Office space and location is one of the perks of the job. In many offices the size and location of your office signals to all your success or lack of it. Even salaried staff pays attention to this. More importantly, is the message your office sends to clients.Most offices have a pecking order from lowest to highest, starting with the board room. From there it goes small interior office, two window exterior office, three window exterior office and finally, corner office. It took me only four years to make it to a corner office. Whoo hoo! To answer your question about downsizing voluntarily, I did so once. It was a mistake. At the time I was 4th highest producing broker in a 45 broker office. I left the comfort of a corner office to return to the board room. I did so to mentor trainees and struggling brokers with my intense cold calling/business building program. My first day out in the board room the reports I normally received from my SA every morning were missing. I went to her and she informed me that she was no longer my SA. Huh? Apparently, in this office board room FAs didn't get a Sales assistant. I'd only been in the office for a few months. The ops mgr automatically took my SA away when I moved. It took only a few minutes with the BM to straighten this out. The downside was that the ops mgr thought I was getting special treatment. Yoh dude, look at the numbers! This cancer spread to many of the 25 or so brokers who were not part of the program. It caused so much trouble among the malcontents that the mgr asked me to move back into an office. Of course because two months had passed he had given my corner office to another broker who made it clear he wasn't going to go quietly. In the interest of family unity i accepted a smaller office even though I was out producing the lout who had my office. Bottom line, that guy is out of the biz today. And two of my mentored guys are still in and doing well. But talk about a lot of wasted energy! Lastly, the office thing can be used as punishment as well. In one office there was somewhat of an uprising against an incompetent BM. Even though I took no part in this or any of the detrimental activites these brokers participated in I was guilty by association. One of my good friends was a ring leader. The mgr came to me and told me he had to move me from my large office. He put me in a small interior office. Obviously his goal was to humiliate me. I said nothing and gave him no satisfaction. I quitely accepted his misguided decision and kept working. About 3 months into this chapter our regional mgr came to the office for a visit. We go way back. In this office, the set up put all the trainees in one large room at the far end of the office. My tiny office was two doors down from theirs. The Regional guy came down to talk to the trainees and saw me walk into my office. He asked what was going on. I told him to ask the BM. Later that day the BM came to me and asked me to move again. This time to a corner office, his corner office. The regional guy had handed him his ass. And people ask if a BM can make a difference in your life? In the end the office thing is as stupid as it gets. But at the wires it's real. And it is a quality of life issue.
I for one like the real estate in my office. I like the autographed stuff, memorabilia, pictures on the wall, extra table and chairs, flat screen TV (how else was I supposed to watch the U.S. Open playoff on Monday?).
I spend more time in my office than I do at home, so it should have everything that I want.
You have to earn the big corner office. You should work to earn that. And just as easily as you can get, you can lose it.
If only I had space for a refrigerator and putting green...I'm in complete agreeance with Ferris and the OldLady.
The third biggest producer in my office has one of the smallest offices. It bothers him every once in a while, but I swear he likes it because it forces him to be out of the office more to continue prospecting.

Enabling cost-effective high-current burst-mode operation in superconducting accelerators
Superconducting (SC) accelerators are very efficient for CW or long-pulse operation, and normal conducting (NC) accelerators are cost effective for short-pulse operation. The addition of a short NC linac section to a SC linac can correct for the energy droop that occurs when pulsed high-current operation is required that exceeds the capability of the klystrons to replenish the cavity RF fields due to the long field fill-times of SC structures, or a requirement to support a broad range of beam currents results in variable beam loading. This paper describes the implementation of this technique to enable microseconds of high beam-current, 90 mA or more, in a 12 GeV SC long-pulse accelerator designed for the MaRIE 42-keV XFEL proposed for Los Alamos National Laboratory.

You also wouldn't understand that little pun I just used… In which case I'll just tell you upfront: They met making Crossroads (get it now?!).
Yes, before Zoe Saldana hit it big in the industry, Britney was the first "major" celebrity she ever worked with in their 2002 rom-com together Crossroads (which also starred Taryn Manning and Justin Long, by the way). And it looks like the two still mean a lot to each other!
During an appearance on Watch What Happens Live last week, Saldana was quick to defend BritBrit when a viewer asked if she'd heard the pop star's leaked "Alien" track, which was released without auto-tune.
"Well that's mean," Zoe said, backing up her former co-star. "Because I'm pretty sure that 80 percent of our musical artists would be mortified if they were caught singing without their own auto-tune."

She continued, "I have a huge amount of respect for Britney Spears. She was the one, big big celeb that I met when I started to work in Hollywood who literally was humble. I do believe that people and children gravitate to good energy, and she's definitely an abundance of that!"
Aww! We totally respect that Zoe continues to support her girl!
.@zoesaldana Truly the sweetest, thx 4 the kind words. Nothing but great memories of working w u. Crossroads pt 2? 😉 http://t.co/uQIn7Ximqx

Brit also appreciated Zoe's kind words, giving her a big shout on Monday over Twitter alongside a GIF of the two during a scene in Crossroads.
Love that these two worlds have collided again!
