Technology is not just for teens anymore. Increasingly, manufacturers are creating new technology that is either designed specifically for seniors or is a boon in particular to seniors.
Constant contact for emergencies
Verizon recently introduced Verizon SureResponse, a personal emergency response system targeted at seniors. The small black box with a big red button on it can be worn on a belt, a lanyard or with a wrist strap. In case of emergency, the user simply hits the button and a 24-hour emergency response service is called. Teams there ascertain the situation and make the appropriate calls, whether that's to emergency personnel or someone on a preapproved call list, such as a family member.
It's essentially an OnStar system for people.
"It's simple, and it's on you all the time," said Verizon spokeswoman Jenny Weaver. "It's something you can use wherever you go. It has a GPS, so you don't need to explain to emergency responders how to get to you."
The cost of SureResponse is comparable to a low-end cellphone, but the 24-hour response service and simplicity separate it from a basic cellphone.
Flashing safety lights in Sun City
All the homes in Sun City Summerlin have an emergency response system built into them. A switch near the front door activates a flashing light to which the Sun City Summerlin Security Patrol responds. At the time it was created, it seemed like a state-of-the-art idea, and although it may seem quaint and simplistic in the days of wireless connectivity and instant communication, it's still a system that works and provides peace of mind and a sense of community to many of the residents.
A Sun City Summerlin Security Patrol dispatcher said that while they patrol the community keeping an eye out for the lights, it's often a neighbor who sees the emergency signal first and calls dispatch. It allows neighbors to look out for one another from the safety of their homes for a minimal initial installation and upkeep.
Smart Living For seniors
Across the valley on Frenchman Mountain, Teri Lyn Vander Heiden has built what she calls the Senior Smart House, a site that incorporates many unique features designed to make life easier for seniors, particularly those like Vander Heiden who frequently use a wheelchair.
She began with basic ideas. The large home was built on one floor, without stairs. The one spot where building codes required a step up, the entrance from the garage, is fitted with a ramp.
The exterior doors swing out, making it easier to get out of the home in the event of a fire or other emergency. The interior doors are all pocket doors. They slide into a space inside the walls, making going through them in a wheelchair much easier. All of her doorways are at least 4 inches wider than her wheelchair.
"My front door has a remote-control lock and two-way glass, so I can see out but people can't see in," Vander Heiden said. "I also have two doors on the sides of the main door that are too narrow to walk through and have screens in them. That way I can leave them open and always have fresh air and ventilation, if I wanted, while maintaining security."
In her kitchen she has a mix of simple ideas and high-tech gadgetry. Instead of cupboards she can't reach from a wheelchair, she has open-topped drawers all below her countertops.
"It's a lot easier for those of us who might not remember what's behind a closed door," Vander Heiden said.
Her dishwasher is small and pulls out like a drawer, allowing her to load it from her chair. Instead of a tall refrigerator with a freezer, they are two separate units, both built to fit underneath her countertops. Her sinks are operated with electric eyes, so she simply waves her hand in front of them to turn them on.
"I cook with a NuWave stove. I love it," Vander Heiden said. "It doesn't heat up the house. It heats up the pots with magnets. And it does it better and faster than a gas or electric stove."
The NuWave oven works through induction, creating magnetic fields that warm steel or iron pots. There is no burner, just a painted circle indicating where the induction coils are beneath the smooth stovetop. There are no nooks and crannies under burners to clean.
Many of the lights in the home are operated by motion sensors. Vander Heiden intends to have them throughout the house eventually. She also has nightlight/flashlight combinations scattered throughout the home, which are also operated by motion sensors.
When I get up at night, these light my way. I don't have to look for light switches," Vander Heiden said. "If we have a power outage, they all have removable flashlights on them. I never have to go digging around in the dark looking for one."
Instead of dressers, she dedicated a walk-in (or roll-in) closet with all her clothes on hangers or in open-faced drawers. She has a pantry just off the garage with open shelves spaced wide enough for her to easily roll her chair through. When she brings in groceries, most of them travel just a few feet from her car to her pantry.
The restroom faucets are also on motion sensors. The shower was designed without a lip or edge so she can roll in and using the many safety bars to transfer herself to a seat built into the shower.
The shower is made of KeraGlass, a material that can be formed in one piece without joints or tiles for easy cleaning.
Easy cleaning was the idea behind the smart home's window treatments. Blinds sit between double panes of glass. The blinds are operated with hardware outside the door, so dust doesn't get in to gather on them.
"I have a bunch of Summit appliances in here, including my combination washer/dryer," Vander Heiden said. "They don't sell them many places in the valley, and they really make things easier and simpler."
Her washer/dryer is the same size or even smaller than the average washing machine, but it does both functions, removing the necessity of transferring heavy, wet clothes from the washer to the dryer.
Vander Heiden admits that many of the features she has built into her new home are more expensive than traditional appliances, but she built it hoping it would be an example of how a home can make a senior's life easier.
"I have people up here as often as I can to let them see what can be done," she said. "Everyone who has seen it has just been thrilled."
Her hopes for the next step in building the senior home of the future involve her iPad. She wants to install cameras and set up remote operating systems so she can run the whole house from anywhere in the world, adjusting lights, temperature and anything else she can think of.
As far as emergency response, Vander Heiden relies on her smartphone, which she has modified to have a one-push button to call 911. She keeps it handy at all times with a piece of old school technology — a knitted pouch she wears as a necklace.

Hilary Clinton vs Ted Cruz
|Voting Style:
|Point System:
|7 Point
|2 years ago
|Post Voting Period
|535 times
|Debate No:
Round 1-Acceptance, Round 2-Cases, Round 3-Rebuttals, Round 4-Strictly Defense(no new arguments added)
I will be representing Hilary Clinton's views, and stating reasons why she would be a better president than Ted Cruz. Please note that this is a debate of the two lesser evils. I am a libertarian, but I cannot see myself trusting the future of American diplomacy, military, and foreign policy in the hands of Ted Cruz.
I accept
Ted Cruz has motivated racism, impulsivness, and an overwhelming stupidity in his voters. His views are not thouroghly explained, and are very idealistic. Ted Cruz is the embodiment of the grassroots anti-establishment Republican. In this debate, I will be argueing that Ted Cruz is idealistic, and has oversimplified many issues.
C1-Ted Cruz's political views and statements
-Send Police to patrol Muslim neighborhoods- First, I will start with the main problems with this.
Muslims will feel alienated in Donald Trump's administration. Evidence usually shows that when Muslims feel left out and discriminated; radical idealogies will become more persuasive. This does not have to do with their religion, and can be applied to any group of people with any religion.
Many law professors deem it as unamerican as it is unconsitutional to pursue such a ban. The Federal Government cannot ban any religious group from entering the US. They are free to move to America. The Founding Fathers also specifically state the government has secular. There should be no religous persecution here. Banning Islam will cause the government to promote their own religion.
-Ted Cruz wants to carpetbag ISIS cities.
Ted Cruz is basically saying that he does not care about innocent lives in the Middle East. I will outline the problems with this stance.
European nations already disprove of George Bush's administration. Cruz's administration would be no different.
Bombing ISIS and innocent children will motivate others to create terrorist groups. Alkida was destroyed, but than ISIS comes to power.
-Kick out illegal immigrants
People do not realize how significant of an impact do illegal immigrants make on the US economy. Amnesty would be ideal in fixing the situation. Not only does Ted Cruz stereotype illegal immigrants by calling them rapists, drug dealers, and immoral people, but he also has created a bad name for himself in Latin America. Here are the reasons why Ted Cruz came up with another pathetic idea.
Illegal immigrants contribute 11 billion dollars to the economy each year. They actually pay higher taxes than the top 1%. There is no evidence that they are drug dealers and rapists. They account for 8% of the gross domestic product.
Ted Cruz generalizes people. Illegal immigrants make up 5% of the worker population. There is no evidence pointing to all of them being drug dealers. This proves that his decision making skills are not only impulsive, but just dumb.
I believe I have provided reasons why Cruz should not become president. In conclusion:
Konichiwa! I'd like to thank my opponent for writing an argument in this debate. Never the less, let's get this going.
Case 1: Clinton is a Proven Hypocrite
Something I'd like to point out:
"Asked by The Post last month about the role of the pro-Clinton Priorities USA Action, Clinton shrugged her shoulders and said,"I don't know.""
Wow. Clinton doesn't know. It's funny how Hillary denounces Super PACs but relies on two of them. (1)
Hillary Clinton was against LGBT for the longest time. She came in favor of gay marriage in 2013. In 2003, when she was pro-traditional marriage, more than 60% of the American people were for traditional marriage. When she came out for gay marriage in 2013, it was around 60% in favor! (2) A quote from the article:
"Clinton opposed same-sex marriage as a candidate for the Senate, while in office as a senator, and while running for president in 2008. She expressed her support for civil unions starting in 2000 and for the rights' of states to set their own laws in favor of same-sex marriage in 2006.
As polls showed that a majority of Americans supported same-sex marriage, Clinton's views changed, too. She announced her support for same-sex marriage in March 2013.
It's up to voters to decide how they feel about her changed stance, but on same-sex marriage we give Clinton a Full Flop."
"I made it very clear that I made a mistake, plain and simple. And I have written about it in my book, I have talked about it in the past," Clinton told reporters at an event in Cedar Falls, Iowa, adding that "what we now see is a very different and very dangerous situation." (2)
"I disagree with Senator Obama's assertion that people in our country cling to guns and have certain attitudes about immigration or trade simply out of frustration," she said.
She described herself as a pro-gun churchgoer, recalling that her father taught her how to shoot a gun when she was a young girl and said that her faith "is the faith of my parents and my grandparents." (5)
"I know we are a smart enough nation to figure out how you protect responsible gun owners' rights and get guns out of the hands of people who shouldn't have them," Mrs. Clinton replied.
She added that she would expand comprehensive background checks and close "the Charleston loophole," a federal provision releasing guns to buyers if a background check takes longer than three days. It is a provision, she said, that Senator Bernie Sanders supported." (6)
You can clearly see how Clinton flips and flops her views on issues when the masses aren't in her favor. We don't need a weak president. We need someone who will stand up for what may be unpopular. Ted Cruz does this. This brings me to my next point.
Ted Cruz wants to propose a bill to banning Syrian Refugees. (8) In countries who allowed Syrian refugees, it cost them a lot of money and caused the rate of rape to go up dramatically. In some cases, it increased up to 300%. (9) Ted Cruz is for protecting our men and women from rape and more debt. How about Hillary Clinton? She wants to let in around 65,000 refugees. (10) There's Hillary not having a spine.
"A controversy arose in March 2015, when it became publicly known that Hillary Clinton exclusively used her family's private email server for her official email communications while she was the United States Secretary of State, rather than using official State Department email accounts maintained on federal government servers.
There is debate as to the propriety of various aspects of Secretary Clinton's arrangement. Some experts, officials, and members of Congress contended that her use of privatemessaging system software, and a private server, and the deletion of nearly 32,000 emails that she deemed private, violated State Department protocols and procedures, and federal laws and regulations governing recordkeeping requirements. In response, Clinton has said that her use of personal email was in compliance with State Department laws and regulations, and that former secretaries of state had also maintained personal email accounts.
Nearly 2,100 emails on the server have been retroactively marked as classified by the State Department, though they were not marked as classified at the time they were sent. This includes 65 emails deemed secret and 22 deemed "Top Secret". Government policy, reiterated in the non-disclosure agreement signed by Clinton as part of gaining her security clearance, is that sensitive information should be considered and handled as classified even if not marked as such. After allegations were raised that some of the emails in question fell into this so-called "born classified" category, a probe was initiated by the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) regarding how classified information was handled on the Clinton server." (15)

I saw this on a few other blogs I read (although I have no idea who came up with the idea - sorry!). I thought it was a great idea, and have decided to incorporate it into my blog each month :) I've set a basket in our bathroom and toss my empty product containers into it, and than at the end of the month (or two weeks into the month by the time I get around to posting it...) I'll take pictures and show all three readers of my blog (I'm secretly hoping it's more, but let's be real...) exactly what I've used up. Since I started doing this, it has made me so aware of how many products I actually have opened right now.
September wasn't a very exciting month for finishing off products, but October is already looking better!
Oxy Sensitive Medicated Acne Pads - I've never really had problems with acne, even as a teenager I had great skin, but I've been using these for years. Even if I only use one of these a day, this will last me 3 months and it costs under $10. Deals!
Verdict: Will buy again
Aura Cacia - Lemon Essential Oil
Saje - Orange Essential Oil
Saje - Yoga Essential Oil Diffuser Blend
L and I have one of these in our bedroom, and fall asleep with it on every night. Every night we put 10-15 drops of an oil into our diffuser to fill the air with soothing, calming scents, so we go through a fair bit of this stuff. That being said, we hadn't bought any new ones since last Christmas (until last week when L brought home a new one). At one point our collection had 13 or 14 different scents, I believe we are down to only 3 or 4 now...
Verdict: I'll be sticking with the Saje brand, the Lemon one was cheap and took way more than usual to get a scent into the air. I would definitely buy the orange or yoga scents again!
Veet Sensitive Formula Hair Removal Cream - again, another product I've been using for years. Nothing beats burning the hair off your legs with harsh-smelling chemicals!
Verdict: Already have a new bottle open...
As I mentioned, September was really boring for empty products....

A Fundamental Change in My Moral Character
(Minghui.org) As a financial leader for an education department in my city, I was in charge of over 50 middle and elementary schools. It was a powerful position to many people. However, I let myself become dishonest by taking advantage of my job to accept gifts and invitations to dining out. In return, I allowed some of their charges to be reimbursed on school accounts.
I was always depressed and in poor health. I searched many places looking for a true master to guide me in cultivation, but to no avail. One day, I prayed to a Buddha statue in my home, asking: "Please help me to return back to heaven. The human world has too much suffering, and there is nothing I want except to cultivate."
Falun Gong Changed Me Fundamentally
A few days later, my colleague gave me a copy of Zhuan Falun, the main book of Falun Dafa, and told me to read it as soon as possible. I finished reading the entire book in two days, feeling that it was exactly what I was looking for.
The diseases I used to suffer, such as nerve pain, arthritis and neurasthenia disappeared shortly after my practice of Falun Dafa began. So I was in a good mood most every day. Family members and other colleagues saw my changes, and some of them also started to practice Falun Dafa.
I had realized that my bad health and difficulties in life were all caused by my karma. Since then, I stopped taking those gifts and free meals that I should not have accepted in the first place. I am now considerate of others, often offering to help colleagues in my workplace. I applied the Dafa principles of Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance to conduct my behavior and showed people the goodness of Dafa. Whoever contacted me, even after the persecution of Falun Dafa started, all knew Dafa was discredited, and they understood that practitioners were good people.
Proving Dafa's Goodness In a New Workplace
After the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) started its persecution of Falun Dafa, I was discharged from public employment due to my belief. I was illegally sent to forced labor camps twice after I went to Tiananmen Square in Beijing to appeal for justice for Falun Gong.
I went to the south of China in 2005 and worked for a foreign company with a friend's help. I was mainly responsible for warehouse and sales management.
The owner knew my situation and something about Dafa and that practitioners were honest and good people. He offered me double pay, but I declined. I would not take even one penny that I did not deserve, although I badly needed money due to the persecution.
The management of the warehouse was a chaotic mess; some employees stole products to sell, and there were about 2,000 products lost in one year. I began to set up a new warehouse management system, rearranged the inventory, and established a running account. Any materials that were loaned out and/or returned had to be recorded with an acceptable reason and time to make sure the account was understandable.
This strict management prevented the thefts that went on previously. The former thieves tried to convince me to be on their side, but I refused. They complained to the boss using false claims and even threatened to stab me with a knife. I had been a fearful person before I practiced Falun Dafa. Now I knew that I ought to rectify all bad things.
I held the thought that Falun Dafa's Master would take care of me. So I continued working on the new management system. Later, no more products were missing and over a million yuan was saved each year. My boss approved of my work, so I told him my Falun Gong practice helped me to achieve that.
I treated everyone kindly and used any opportunities that came up to spread the facts about Falun Gong and the persecution. Some agreed to quit the CCP and its affiliated organizations, while some watched the Shen Yun DVD.
On one occasion, my company organized a group of model workers to travel to Hong Kong, and I was one of the employees selected. However, if I had gone, there would have been no one to handle our warehouse shipments, so I gave up the chance to go.
My colleagues saw that I never argued for profits and worked hard at my job and even did extra work. They said they never saw such a foolish person. I knew I was not foolish and only because of being a Dafa practitioner with high principles could I do that. Every day I came to work early and left late; I worked six days a week and finished nine years work in eight years.
Our company applied for ISO quality system certification, requiring each sector to work in accordance with the same day-to-day management standards. All the staff was resistant to change and not willing to implement the standards. The sales sector then asked me to complete this job.
I had no idea how to do this, so I asked the person in charge of the ISO certification to teach me how to make forms, record the information, and how to summarize the statistics. All of my work helped the company successfully pass that year's certification check. The ISO work in my sales sector was considered to be the best at our company's annual meeting and also won unanimous recognition in our city. I had worked there for eight years and removed many of my attachments.
Dafa principles guided me to cast off many human notions and attachments. My boss asked me again and again to come back there long after I left the company. I knew it was a Dafa practitioner's behavior that won over his admiration. He got to know that Falun Dafa was good.
Proving Dafa Is Good in My Family Environment
The persecution of Falun Dafa began destroying my family life, as I was fired from a highly desired job. Many of my relatives and friends had misunderstandings and even hostility towards my practice. I kept contacting them, however, and showed them the goodness of Dafa through my actions.
My mother, who is 80 years old, has had to take medicine for over 20 years for high blood pressure, which also led to kidney failure six years ago. After she checked into the hospital, her sickness became worse.
I arrived at the hospital after being notified that she was critically ill. My younger sister and I kept reciting "Falun Dafa is good; Truthfulness-Compassion- Forbearance is good" into my mother's ear. One hour later, the doctor came to check and found she was better. He was surprised by this.
It was winter time. My younger brother and sister, as well as the doctors, nurses and patients on the same floor all caught colds. My brother and sister had taken medicine and were given injections, but were not any better.
After I spent the entire day in my mother's hospital room, I felt weak and it seemed like I also had a cold. I asked my brother to take care of my mother. That evening I sat in meditation and studied the Fa. I then got up early the following morning to practice the exercises.
My mother then saw that my cold was completely gone when I arrived. She told my brother, "She has not taken a single pill, but after just one night of sleep, her sickness was healed. On the contrary, you've been taking medicine and having injections for so long, with no improvement." She began to believe the truth about Dafa after that.
My mother was not feeling well early this year and was again sent to the hospital. The medical specialists suggested a conservative treatment. My mother decided to check out of the hospital one week later. I told her to repeatedly listen to the Fa and sincerely recite "Falun Dafa is good." She was illiterate, but learned to recite four Falun Dafa poems.
I took my mother to the hospital for a blood test. The results showed she was back to normal. The doctors who had diagnosed her before were amazed and said that this was indeed a miracle! I knew it was the power of Dafa and Master's compassion at work.

Angelina, perfect body and the most innocent face anyone will see has talked her sugar daddy into lying on the floor and sniffing her slightly sweaty feet. Her toenails are covered in a black polish matching her dress. Her glasses give off a naughty school girl look to her. Her bare feet are stuck all up his nose and mouth.
Janine is wearing her tightest leather pants that she has and black tank top along with her seductive high heel shoes. Lying underneath her couch is a slave who is balancing them both on his chest. He quenches her crush fetish. The full-weight nearly collapses his lungs but he dismiss the humiliation when Janine's bright smile and flowing blonde hair looks back down at him.
This is the ultimate humiliation for this boy. Instead of peeing in the toilet his girl decides she wants him to drink her urine. He opens his mouth wide waiting for the hot liquid to shoot out into his mouth while his girl is squatting over his head with not panties on and her pussy is clean shaved. He drinks it all down his throat.
Fem Dom Layla and Mistress Jane decide to test their crushing slaves capability by placing s small stool on his stomach and sitting on it. Watch as he becomes more and more flustered as not one but both of them force him to take their full weight before bouncing on the stool causing him to lose control and cry out. This cannot be tolerated so as punishment and humiliation some boot trampling is in order, both of the dominant females proceed to use him as their personal pavement with no area of his body unused!

(Bloomberg) An analysis written for an influential bloc of U.S. House conservatives derides a key component of a new Republican plan to replace Obamacare, faulting a provision offering tax credits to individuals who wouldn't otherwise have access to health insurance.
Prepared for the Republican Study Committee, a group of about 170 House conservatives, the staff report called the refundable tax credits "a Republican welfare entitlement."
"Writing checks to individuals to purchase insurance is, in principle, Obamacare," says the memo, which was obtained by Bloomberg News.
Republicans Monday unveiled their long-awaited legislation to replace former President Barack Obama's Affordable Care Act, proposing to phase out key parts of the health care law over several years as they try to break through a stalemate between moderates and conservatives in their party (see Republicans unveil health care bill to bridge gaps in party).
But conservative Senator Rand Paul of Kentucky also blasted GOP leaders' new draft on Tuesday morning. He wrote on Twitter that it is "Obamacare Lite. It will not pass." Conservatives, he added "are not going to take it."
The Republican Study Committee's staff analysis of the proposal said there are "major concerns" with the legislation's continuation of Medicaid expansion, and a lack of clarity on how language preventing the use of the tax credit money for abortions can be guaranteed.
The Energy & Commerce and Ways & Means committees are scheduled to hold initial hearings on the legislation as early as Wednesday.
Fundamentally Grounded
The staff analysis says the legislation contains the same tax credits as a Feb. 10 draft criticized by many conservatives. However, it also includes a phase out of the credit for individuals earning more than $75,000 ($150,000 for joint filers). This would reduce the value of the credit by 10 percent of the amount by which an individual's income exceeds the income threshold, the evaluation says.
While that allows more choices for individuals and is more patient-centered, it "is fundamentally grounded on the idea that the federal government should fund insurance purchases," the staff report says.
The review also notes the new plan maintains the expansion of Medicaid "as-is through the end of 2019." After that the federal government would start to reimburse states at a lower rate for new enrollees. That means the expansion would continue to grow for three years, then phase out over five years.
But such an ongoing expansion—even for three years—means the Republican proposal would "continue to contribute to the worsening of the federal and state budgets by incentivizing states to maintain expansion or to initiate new expansions and leaving the federal government picking up the majority of the bill," the staff memo says.
"It is doubtful that a future Congress will allow the reduction in enhanced payments to occur," the memo says.
The committee staff said the reason for the delay "is to avoid the political consequences and pain of unwinding expansion, especially in Republican-held states with upcoming gubernatorial contests," and "prevents state budgets from incurring major new costs with little runway."
"It is unlikely that any future Congress will have a stronger political will in terms of reforming Obamacare entitlements than the sitting Congress—thus it is unlikely that the expansion repeal will ever be implemented in reality," the evaluation warns.
The staff analysis also notes the bill attempts to provide "guardrails" intended to prevent the tax credits from being used to pay for abortions, though "it is unclear if the language can survive" reconciliation rules under Senate requirements.
There was no immediate comment on the evaluation from the chairman of the committee, Representative Mark Walker of North Carolina. He said earlier that he would be meeting with the group's steering committee on Tuesday about the bills.

چکیده انگلیسی
Construction quality is a major problem in China's housing market. We investigate whether the housing market could provide incentives to encourage developers to promote construction quality beyond the compulsory, minimum standards by testing the financial viability of efforts made in this field by developers. This study takes place in the city of Beijing, where the "Great Wall Award", granted by the local construction bureau, is used as an indicator of excellent performance in construction quality. Our analysis shows that, from 2005 to 2010, the transaction price in the housing resale market of a unit that received the award can be up to 7.0% higher than a similar unit that did not receive the award. This difference is due to both the higher possible rent and a lower capitalization rate. However, we find no meaningful price premium at the presale stage, while developers with a record of winning the award cannot use such reputation to obtain price premiums in later projects either. These findings indicate a mismatch between the costs and benefits that residential developers face when deciding to enhance the quality of their construction. This mismatch partially explains the current housing construction quality problems in China, and may also discourage future improvements in this field. More efforts from the government are required to correct such market failures.

What do you think is better an automated Forex trading system or an Semi-Automated Forex trading system?
If you are like many Forex traders you have contemplated or are contemplating the purchase of an automated trading system. The advantages are very simple to enumerate. First, you turn it on and theoretically it makes money for you even while you sleep. And second, they aren't that expensive.
But then there are disadvantages:
1. Not knowing exactly what is under the hood and who built it.
2. Many of automated systems on the market at the same time can contradict one another making them compete with one another in particular if they trade often.
3. Most of the sales lingo is snake-oil type language that doesn't allow you to get a handle on the idea behind the trading method.
4. The best automated system seem to work well in the very beginning like network marketing however too many traders using the same system suck the liquidity out of the market.
Any well known automated trading system is going to have a forum of followers. You will be able to tell how it is doing by reading those posts. In my 5 years of trading there was on system that had a shelf-life of about a year.
The bottom-line is that if many of the greatest minds in economics, physics, math and finance cannot program a computer to trade successfully what makes us think that even a couple of brilliant students at MIT can do it. And if they did, do you seriously think they would sell it for $149.00? No, they would borrow as much money as they could at the lowest interest they could and become rich.
The search for the holy grail of automated trading systems is just that, a search for the holy grail.
If you want to make money in the Forex market you can but you will have to do it in a way that allows you to find imbalances in the market.
There is a way to trade with an Semi-Automated Forex Trading System. Here's how.
1. Create or find a signal that is algorithmic or automatic. You can find these or come up with your own idea and find a programmer. Some simple examples would be moving average crosses, RSI or MACD divergences, etc. Make sure you or someone has done the research on your signal so that it is a good one.
2. Make your signal alert you to your computer, you email and/or your cell phone.
3. Decide if your signal will place a trade or if you will review the signal and place the trade according to a set of rules that you have created.
4. Place your stop and take profit and let the trade run out. If the trade is short-term meaning it has a tighter stop and take profit then you will not need to do much after the trade. If your trade is more long-term as in hours or days you may want to review the trade.
5. Last make sure that the trading system you have can be evaluated statistically so that you can make changes to it as the market changes or to improve it.

At the barn with Kate
My first chord 🙂
Acoustic open mic
Roger Courtney's open mic
I've been booked for my first house concert. As the name suggests, this is a concert in somebody's house, a very intimate and congenial setting. It's on May 17th at a house in Clearwater, Florida. I'm hoping for an audience of 20-30 people and will be playing a 1 hour set with Amanda Gerttula on fiddle. My friend and amazing singer/songwriter Mark Doran will start the evening off with his own set.
Let me know if you want more details of this special event.
I've been busy in the studio since arriving in Florida at the end of March. I've posted 3 new songs on http://www.reverbnation.com/miggimiddleton
Stick Around With Me was recorded at Colin Ward's studio with Doug Willcox on piano and organ and Colin on lead and bass. Big thanks guys.
Maybe and I Ain't Lyin' were recorded at the Hideaway Cafe & Studio with John Kelly doing his usual excellent job of engineering as well as playing lead, bass and percussion. TJ Weger played pedal steel on I Ain't Lyin' and Stringmaster on Maybe with Amanda Gerttula on fiddle on both songs. I really am truly blessed to have such wonderful musicians around me willing to play on my songs!
These songs are all completely different in style and definitely worth a listen!
I have 3 new songs now recorded and available for listening to on http://www.reverbnation.com/miggimiddleton
Songs are:
Dangerous Manoevre – a "spooky" kind of song written around Halloween. Great fiddle playing on this by Amanda Gerttula – Link: http://www.reverbnation.com/miggimiddleton/song/19718131-dangerous-manoevre
The All Of You – A great sounding rockabilly song. Lyrics by J Kolb who wrote the lyrics for Even When I Can't. Link: http://www.reverbnation.com/miggimiddleton/song/19718142-the-all-of-you
I'm On My Own Again – a bluesy feel to this one. Link: http://www.reverbnation.com/miggimiddleton/song/19757953-on-my-own-again
Posted vids from my CD release party. You can now watch all 10 songs being performed at the Hideaway, plus the bonus track – Dangerous Manoevre!
I'm going back to the Hideaway on Thursday to record a new song 'Dangerous Manoevre In The Dark'. Really excited about this one. Played it at my CD release party as the ' bonus track'! Had only just written it then and had limited rehearsal time but it went well.
Preparing for a set at the Dunedin Brewery on Wednesday with Christi Clore, a local keyboard player.
Played a 45 min set at a street party in St. Pete on Saturday. Went down well. Lots of audience feedback!
I'm playing in a music competition at the Dunedin Brewery on 23rd October at about 8.45pm. The winners each week go into a "sing-off" final in November and the winner overall gets some studio time and a paid gig at the Brewery. I'll give it my best so be there to support me if you can.
I will be playing live on Russell Ward's Country Music show on ExpressFM radio www.expressFM.com on Sunday 22nd September from 12 noon (that's 7am onwards for my friends in Florida, an early morning I know so I hope you're not put off your breakfast!). Listen in as I will be playing some songs from my new CD entitled Freshly Cut Sandwiches.

My proposal includes that nobody is forced to use GitHub. All discussions can happen without ever touching GitHub now and in the future. My proposal was designed to take this into account. Please stop bringing this up as an argument against the proposal to send GitHub comments to dev@. Cheers Jan --

For those who dream of open floor plans or for those who already have open areas of the home, separating spaces for different uses may be tricky. Here are some tips and tricks for keeping a flow in an open concept space while creating comfortable, distinct areas in a home.
One of the simplest ways to visually separate spaces without a permanent wall is a room divider. College kids are notorious for creatively dividing rooms with curtains, cardboard, or whatever they can find for cheap. While innovative and useful, upgrade your room dividers to something more attractive and practical with translucent room dividers.
Section off a space to do your morning meditations and yoga with a serene room divider (or three). Room dividers also do wonders by adding privacy to open master suites, dividing media centers from other areas of the home, and/or sectioning off an area for study for adults or children. Choose from a variety of colors, textures, and patterns to define one or more areas in your open space.
Define spaces in your home with the use of color. The style is up to you. For delicate shifts, choose a base color and then vary sections of the home with various shades of the same colors. Mix and match the ideas above for added interest. For a striking effect, go high-contrast with a pop of cherry or deep blue.
Room dividers are a great option, whether going subtle or bold with color coding. Use in conjunction with ceiling and wall applications or on their own. For open spaces sharing the same walls and ceilings or for those who love monochromatic spaces, room dividers may hold the perfect answer. The first option will allow you to color code the panels based off how you would like to divide the sections of your home. For subtlety lovers, choose different patterns or textures to define areas.
An easy way to use contrasting materials to define space is to create an accent wall. Use metallic panels from floor to ceiling behind your dining set or buffet to visually distinguish the dining area.
You can even visually separate open floor plans in large finished basements with opposing materials. Create a pub feel over a basement bar with metal ceiling panels and finish the rest of the space off with crisp acoustical panels.
Design a sophisticated feel in one section with white coffered ceiling panels for the adult side and simple charm with smooth, white tiles or drywall in the children's play area.
A simple way to distinguish one section from another is by adding contrasting materials in similar shades to your open area. Use the layout of your furniture as a guide or simply start with a ceiling or wall application to quickly identify different sections.
Try using a white metallic backsplash to define your kitchen and painted white planks in adjacent dining areas, or set your living room apart with a rich wood-grain look. Choose finishes that complement one another - similar or contrasting shades both work!

Community Group Questions 12/24/11/
Sermon Title: The LuminaryMain Text: John 1:4, Luke 2:8-16
- Jesus, the light, is the life to mankind. The night Jesus was born, The Life to mankind came into the world. What an incredible moment, the birth of Jesus.
- The angels told the shepherds to look for this sign: a baby wrapped in swaddling clothes, lying in a manger.
- Swaddling clothes were linen strips that would wrap around a baby like a mummy. In fact, this was the same practice that was done after death in preparation for burial. These would have been the two moments in one's life when they would be wrapped like this, right after birth, and right after death.
- A manger would have been a little different than we depict it today. It would not have been a wooden box, but a large stone that was hewn out. Often out of limestone. Much like they carve out stone graves or sarcophagi.
- So consider what this baby would have look like? He would have been dressed up like a little mummy in a little sarcophagus. Think of the irony:
- One at the beginning of His life, depicted as at the end.
- One living, dressed like One dead.
- The birth of the author or life, depicted as a dead person.
- It all points to the fact that his death will bring us life.
- Ironically we view God's ways as a "kill-joy." Further ironic, is that what we consider "living-it-up" is what brings destruction.
- Jesus says, that He has come that we may, "have life and have it abundantly." We have to ask ourselves do we believe that or not? Is that guiding our lives or not?
Key Questions:
- What are some of the emotions that you associate with Christmas Eve?
- Read Luke 2:8-16. Put yourself in the place of the shepherds, what would that experience have been like?
- The sign that God gave to the shepherds (Luke 2:12) is one of death. What elements in the sign to the shepherds points to that?
- swaddling clothes are similar to grave clothes
- stone manger is similar to a grave
- Read John 1:4. In light of who Jesus is, what is ironic about that sign?
- One at the beginning of His life, depicted as at the end.
- One living, dressed like One dead.
- The birth of the author or life, depicted as a dead person.
- what is the significance of this sign?
- Jesus would bring us life through His death.
- His death is in our place. He is paying the penalty that we deserve to pay because of our sin.
- Read John 10:10. In what ways does "the Thief" (the evil one), steal kill and destroy? (push the group to think in concrete examples)
- In what ways does Jesus bring life abundantly? (push the group to think in concrete examples, ultimately heaven, what else?)
- *NOTE* - this verse if often used to promote a false doctrine often referred to as "the Health and Wealth Gospel." That false doctrine says that God wants all Christians to be financially wealthy. It says if we are not growing in financial wealth or if we have a physical ailment, we are either in sin or do not have enough faith to get out of it. This contradicts scriptures where Jesus points us to treasures in heaven, and tells us to have joy in the trials that He often allows. God does like to bless us, but we have to learn to be content no matter the circumstances He brings us out of His love (Philippians 4:11-13).
- What are examples of how our culture often believes the exact opposite - that God is a "kill-joy," and our ways are actually "living=it=up"?
- Does anyone have a personal story from your life that reflects how Jesus has livened up your life?
- When we are tempted to believe the lie that doing things our way rather than God's will make us happy, what can we do to remind ourselves of the truth?
- How can we encourage and remind each other?
Don't forget to post your attendance after group.

" I had no idea what a test was....checking in....female unconscious behavior.
I thought it was wildly illogical bitching and complaining with intent to manipulate.
I'm having a great time with it now, finding and meeting women open to learning about these instinctual concepts.
Lots of fun opening each other up and seeing how deep it goes just for the joy of doing it. It really is sexy as hell when they start picking up on it." - Roger, member of The Integrated Man group
Michelle Terrell has been a health and wellness coach since 1995. In those years she has collected data and the real life testimonials of thousands of good men, just like you, that were feeling lost and confused in their love lives
My workshop students dubbed me The Pistol Whip Hippie because my
teaching/coaching style is irreverent, in your face and radically honest (the Pistol Whip part) with the follow up being supportive nurturing awakened energy (the Hippie part) that inspires men to strive to be their very best.
All my degrees and credentials aside, my greatest asset toward helping you on your journey is that I am an attractive women and I am willing to tell it to you straight. I wake up each day filled with passion and excited for the progress of my clients.
What is of most value to me, beyond any of my many academic accomplishments is the good faith of the men that have been in my care. It has been my honor and at times my burden to serve men, but always a learning experience. It's the men themselves that have shown up to teach me what I needed to know to become a master teacher in this work.

The Great Comic Book Cover Homage Streak: Week 69
It occurs to me that it seems like many comic book covers are homages. Which is fine with me. I have no problem with it. It just made me think, though, how long could I go before I hit a week where NO new comic book was released that had a cover that was an homage to something? Let's find out! Here is an archive of all the cover homages featured in the streak so far!
This week we'll go with Jeff Shultz's cover for Betty and Veronica #269, which is homaging J. Howard Miller's classic World War II era propaganda poster "We Can Do It!"
Sixty-nine weeks down! Will we make it to week seventy?

Snapchat is in the news for refusing a 3 billion USD offer from rival social networking Facebook. Since that time there are numerous public spat between the Facebook management and Snapchat management.
So what is it which is driving Facebook to get Snapchat?
Snapchat is cool - It's probably the most widely perceived cool app on earth. It really is growing at neck breaking pace and reached 50 million active users before some of the other startup social networking applications. The application is most desired by the teenagers who unlike the prior generation recognize that what you may leave on the net it remains there forever.
It really is totally engrossing -- If you work with it then you might be completely inside it. Unlike one other social media network it's got taken the generation's question "Have I missed something important" to another level. It's completely engrossing, seriously personal and to an excellent extent really private. This intimacy will be the component that is driving its growth because teenagers like the previous generations effective in keeping friends with them circle closed rather than an open one such as Facebook and Google+.
Marketers' Dream
Snapchat can be a marketer's dream nowadays in this day media environment where everyone of us is bombarded exceeding 100 advertisements per day across all platforms. Snapchat supplies a tool that is seriously private. What it really provides is 100% user attention and participation. The consumer needs to keep your thumb on screen to help keep what it's all about rolling.
Despite the fact that Snapchat has resisted advertising up to now it may be safely assumed that when it reaches a particular scale, it will likely be more receptive with it. That will supply a brand-new metric for the advertisers - Active user engagement level.
Just how long an individual watched the advertisement or how long he / she contemplated in regards to the deal and just what action he /she took about the message. It'll open new frontiers for your internet advertising as advertisers are not only in a position to learn what is the reach of the message, how many screens it got displayed, what folks were trying to find but also how time they allocated to advertisement and what action they took. What type of advertisement takes simply how much response time and what can be done to better the message.

|Item 8.01
|Other Events
As previously disclosed, on March 7, 2016, iHeartCommunications, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of iHeartMedia Capital I, LLC (the Company or we), received Notices of Default (the Notices) from the holders of at least 25% of the outstanding principal amount of four of the Companys outstanding series of Priority Guarantee Notes (the Holders). The Notices alleged that we violated certain covenants under the indentures governing the Priority Guarantee Notes (the Indentures) when, on December 3, 2015, we contributed 100,000,000 shares (the Shares) of Class B common stock of Clear Channel Outdoor Holdings, Inc. from Clear Channel Holdings Inc., one of our wholly-owned subsidiaries, to Broader Media, LLC, one of our wholly-owned subsidiaries that is an unrestricted subsidiary under the Indentures (the Contribution). The Notices asserted that the alleged defaults would become an Event of Default under the Indentures following the expiration of 60 days. An Event of Default, if it were to occur, would entitle the Holders to accelerate the underlying indebtedness and would trigger events of default under our other material indebtedness.
On March 7, 2016, we filed a lawsuit (Cause No. 2016 CI 04006) in the State District Court in Bexar County, Texas (the Court) against the Holders and the indenture trustees under the Indentures (collectively, the Defendants) seeking, among other things, a ruling by the Court through declaratory judgment that we are not in default or in violation of any covenant or provision of the Indentures (the Cause).
On March 9, 2016, we obtained a temporary restraining order from the Court (i) rescinding the Notices until the temporary restraining order expires pursuant to its terms or until further order of the Court, and (ii) restraining and enjoining the Defendants from issuing additional notices of default on the Priority Guarantee Notes or any other indebtedness of the Company based upon the Contribution. The temporary restraining order expires in 14 days, but for good cause shown, the Court may extend the temporary restraining order up to 14 additional days. As a condition to obtaining the temporary restraining order from the Court, we agreed not to sell, transfer, encumber, pledge, hypothecate or otherwise dispose of any interest in, or proceeds of, the Shares until such time as a hearing may be held for a temporary injunction.
We continue to believe that the Contribution did not cause a default under any of the Indentures or under the terms of any of our other indebtedness. If, however, we are unable to obtain the permanent relief we are requesting from the Court or are otherwise unable to successfully contest the validity of the Notices and any subsequent acceleration of a material portion of our indebtedness, then we would need to pursue other available alternatives to address the claimed defaults.
Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the registrant has duly caused this report to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned hereunto duly authorized.

Can VoIP Calls be Wiretapped?
Wiretapping and the NSA
Wiretapping of phone calls has a long history in the United States with law enforcement agencies making use of the technology to record phone conversations by criminals in order to secure convictions. However, the technology was also misused in some instances leading to the creation of wiretapping laws which specified conditions under which law enforcement could utilize it. These laws are fairly strict and enforcement agencies need a court order before tapping any phone line.
With the recent revelations regarding the NSA and its surveillance programs, both business organizations and private individuals have become concerned that VoIP calls could also be secretly recorded and accessed by officials. Tapping VoIP calls however is more complicated than normal phone calls for legal and technological reasons. For one thing, VoIP is classified under information services and providers are not required to provide "lawful intercept" for government agencies, unlike telephone carriers.
How Easy is it?
At present, it is easy for agencies to search through email or text messages without court approval when compared to phone calls. As VoIP becomes more popular, it is likely that the government will try to expand the scope of existing wiretapping laws to cover it as well. Some experts are of the view that bringing VoIP into the purview of wiretapping laws will actually be better for citizens since a strict judicial process will then be required even though privacy advocates argue strenuously against any such move.
The other obstacles to intercept business VoIP users are technological. VoIP has the advantage that it is not tied to a physical location such as cellular towers or wires, making it difficult for police to track users. Additionally, users are increasingly accessing VoIP services from mobile devices such as mobile phones, tablets and laptops. In the case of business organizations, VoIP calls are usually encrypted and it can be expensive and time-consuming for law enforcement to break the encryption without help from the service provider.
The Legal Environment
Because VoIP providers are not obligated to provide lawful intercepts for enforcement agencies, there have not been many incentives for the development of such methods so far. Still, at least 2 companies have filed/obtained patents for "lawful intercept of VoIP communication". While it is not clear if the technology has been made available to VoIP providers as yet, the FBI and police departments are not likely to lose such a golden opportunity. In spite of this technological advancement, until the laws are changed, VoIP is still the most secure form of voice communication available today.

Manufacturers have reported a significant improvement in their activity over the past 12 months and they are more positive in their outlook compared to last year. The manufacturing leaders expect growth in sales, investments, and employment going forward.
According to the third quarter survey conducted by the National Association of Manufacturers (NAM), nearly 90 percent of respondents said they are optimistic, just a shade less than the all-time high of 93.3 percent registered in the first quarter. Larger manufacturers are more upbeat than medium and small-size firms, with 95 percent having a positive outlook for their companies.
Since 1990 U.S. manufacturing has lost jobs every year. Many U.S. manufacturers moved their operations to low-cost countries and as a result, millions of manufacturing jobs have been lost.
Trump's policies, including tax reform and deregulation, have raised business optimism since the election and encouraged companies, especially manufacturers, to invest in the country.
U.S. manufacturing added on average 14,000 jobs per month between November and August, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics. In September, however, employment in manufacturing dropped marginally (-1,000) due to the effects of hurricanes Harvey and Irma.
Manufacturers predict that the full-time jobs will grow by an average of 2.2 percent over the next 12 months, the fastest pace in the NAM survey's history.
The survey also found that both sales and production of U.S. manufacturing firms are expected to increase by 4.5 percent, on average, over the next 12 months. And capital investments will surge by 2.7 percent, according to the estimates.
The quarterly survey has been conducted for the past 20 years and the most recent survey included the responses of 524 manufacturers from all around the country.
National Manufacturing Day
To honor the manufacturers, President Donald Trump proclaimed Oct. 6 as National Manufacturing Day.
"Our strength as a country depends upon the strength of our domestic industry," said Trump at the ceremony in the White House on Oct. 6.
"We want to dramatically reduce the tax on American manufacturers so that we can compete and win on the world stage," he said.
Manufacturers believe the Trump administration's tax reform, regulatory relief, and infrastructure investment are crucial for the future growth of the sector, according to the NAM president Jay Timmons.
"This is the third quarter where we've seen record optimism by manufacturers," Timmons said at the ceremony. "The three quarters' average is the highest in the entire 20-year history of our survey."
Manufacturers are optimistic about the chance that the proposed tax plan will be signed into law next year.
Under a comprehensive tax reform, nearly 65 percent of respondents would increase investments, 64 percent would expand their business, and 57 percent would hire more workers, according to the NAM survey.
While manufacturers are more positive in their outlook compared to last year, they are concerned about the political uncertainties. The survey respondents are worried about federal and state policy actions (or inactions) or geopolitical issues, including a potential conflict with North Korea.
The survey also found that the top three challenges for manufacturers today are rising health insurance costs, attracting and retaining a quality workforce, and an unfavorable business climate (including taxes and regulations).
Seventy-two percent of manufacturers anticipate insurance cost to increase by more than 8 percent over the next year.
Another big challenge that manufacturers face is attracting and retaining a quality workforce. Manufacturers have already started experiencing a serious shortage of qualified applicants for skilled production positions, according to the NAM.
Manufacturers in every state will hold events in the coming weeks to encourage more Americans to pursue a career in the manufacturing sector, said Trump.

This is a resubmit. All I did was readjust the tones on this image. I feel like this image really shows true bliss. She was thrilled on her first trip on the ferris wheel. A precious moment I will remember forever...definitely a picture of her personality and her love of life.
My definition of her..."she is like a ray of sunshine that dances playfully across the lush green grass of a field and the sparkle that glistens on a lake in the midst of a summer day...she is bliss..."
Thanks for your comments and critiques!

Big competition to sign Lucas Perez this summer 1
Arsenal are looking to offload a number of their players and one of those is supposedly Spanish striker Lucas Perez. The 28-year-old only joined the Gunners from Deportivo La Coruna last summer for a fee of around £17million.
However, he struggled for game time with the club from north London and is now looking to move on in search of regular game time elsewhere. According to TalkSport, a number of clubs are trailing the forward this summer.
In-demand this summer
