Daily Comex Commodity Report of 14 September 2017 by Epic Research
Gold prices held onto gains on Wednesday, as caution returned to markets amid lingering fears over tensions between the U.S. and North Korea and as the U.S. dollar moved lower. Comex gold futures was up $4.82 or about 0.36% at $1,337.41 a troy ounce by 08:35 a.m. ET (12:35 GMT). Market sentiment was mildly supported as Hurricane Irma appeared to have caused less damage than feared and in the absence of any new provocations from North Korea. Irma, which had hammered the Caribbean late last week andwas one of the most powerful Atlantic hurricanes, weakened to a tropical depression, easing concerns over the severity of its financial impact. Market participants seemed to shrug off North Korea's rejection of sanctions imposed by the U.N. Security Council. The Security Council voted unanimously on Monday to step up sanctions on the peninsula, in response to its sixth nuclear test.
? Oil prices trimmed gains on Wednesday, after the U.S. Energy Information Administration reported a larger than forecast U.S. oil inventory build last week. U.S. crude oil was up 39 cents or 0.89% at $48.63 a barrel at 10.35 ET from around $48.75 ahead of the report. Global benchmark Brent futures were at $54.38 a barrel, up 11 cents or 0.2% from $54.59 earlier. Crude oil inventories rose by 5.88 million barrels last week, the EIA said. That was compared to forecasts for a stockpile build of 3.2 million barrels after a build of 4.58 million barrels in the previous week. The report also showed that gasoline inventories fell by 8.42 million barrels, compared to expectations for a decline of 2.05 million barrels, while distillate stockpiles dropped by3.21 million barrels, compared to forecasts for a decrease of 1.53 million. The report came after industry group the American Petroleum Institute said that U.S. oil inventories increased by 6.2 million barrels last week.
U.S. natural gas futures extended this week's rally into a third day on Wednesday, hitting their strongest level in around two weeks as investors looked ahead to weekly data from the U.S. on supplies in storage to weigh what the impact of recent storm activity was on supply and demand. U.S. natural gas for October delivery was at $3.056 per million British thermal units by 9:05AM ET (1305GMT), up 5.5 cents, or around 1.9%, after hitting its best level since Sept. 1 at $3.064 earlier. Futures climbed 5.1 cents, or 1.7%, on Tuesday as concerns over the impact of Hurricane Irma faded away. Natural gas prices have gained around 6% so far this week after Hurricane Irma struck the U.S. southeast with less force than once feared, easing worries over a hit to energy demand.

It's good to see talks emerging between newly crowned Light welterweight Champion Adrien Broner and Ashley Theophane.
A few years ago, there was talk of Zab Judah v Theophane but that fight never happened.
Should the Broner fight be confirmed, conventional wisdom would suggest a Broner win but the sport of boxing has a way of disregarding conventional wisdom, which is one of the beauties of boxing.
I remember promoting Ashley in his earlier fights and he has always had the ability to go very far in boxing.
The Broner fight would be challenging but it's a fight that he can win. Few boxing writers expected Theophane to last the distance against Danny Garcia for the vacant International Boxing organisation welterweight title but he surprised them with a split decision loss, which could have gone either way.
Broner is not the force he once was expected to be and is in a weight division with very talented opposition.
Ashley has won his last 6 bouts whereas, Broner has lost 2 of his last 6! We have to remember it is only 6 fights ago that he was knocked down and beaten quite badly in the Maidana fight and I'm not quite sure if he has regained the confidence that he had before that.
Should Theophane pull off the win, which I think he can, there will be a line of fights and challengers waiting for him.
Boxing fans will remember me live on Sky Sports television predicting an early Danny Williams ko of Mike Tyson.

Heard (Henderson), Josephine D.
O THAT the Holy Angels would invite
Fit words of praise that I might write;
Or to my timid faltering heart reveal,
Some secret hidden spring, some new found seal,
That guards a casket rich and rare and old,
Of gems as rich and pure as finest gold--
Or, to some unknown depth might I descend,
Or, would some fairy sprite its wings me lend,
That I might soar aloft and pierce the azure sky--
Might penetrate earth's bosom with discerning eye;
Or would the touch of heavenly hands inspire
My soul, then filled with pure and holy fire,
Might wake the cords that now lie dormant here,
And catch some rich vibrations from celestial sphere.
Year after year is born and glides away,
And generations rise and flourish and decay;
Flowers bud and blossom, fade and fall,
But the eternal truth outlives them all.
As in the forest stands the sturdy oak.
Where the young ravens scream and groan and croak,
Stand like monuments of the unhappy past,
Those who have brav'd the summer's heat, and
winter's blast.
On mountain height where hungry eagles slept,
In deep ravine where poisonous reptiles crept,
Undaunted to the Master's call take they heed,
And proved themselves his followers indeed.
On, on, though often dark and chill the night,
In the vineyard gleaning with cycle bright,
In the rank marshes, or whereso'er He led,
The sky their only covering, the earth their only bed.
O, welcome day, when peace broods o'er the land;
Free and untrammeled roams the Christian band,
No guillotine is reared, no furious crackling stake;
No flames leap high the Christian's life to take.
How swift the flight of five and twenty years,
Freighted with hope and grief, with joy and tears;
To duty came the call that sacred day--
Strong in the Master's strength, Paul like they did
But free to tread his own or foreign sod,
His voice upraised to the eternal God--
No bodies torn asunder fill untimely graves,
And o'er the world Salvation's Banner waves.
Oh ! Allen, you are with us here to-day,
Noting these services, this grand array;
Those sightless eyes methinks look into mine,
With holy happiness divine.
With gratitude we gather here and now --
Our praises render while we meekly bow
To heaven, who gave us such as thee,
And God's own Son who died to set us free.

The importance of capturing children's portraits throughout their lives cannot be overstated. Their ever changing looks and personalities must be stopped in time and captured through photography for all to treasure before time slips away.
Many psychologist who specialize in early childhood development believe that children who see their on images displayed throughout the home grow up with a feeling of well-being and self-confidence

TossNew Zealand chose to bat v Pakistan
Live scorecard and ball-by-ball details

New Zealand elected to bat first in the third ODI, under overcast skies in Dunedin. Kane Williamson, their captain, felt it was better to put scoreboard pressure on Pakistan. "It's important we execute our roles and adapt as well to a slightly different surface," he said. "Pakistan bat a long way down, and it's important we execute our skills as best we can."
Pakistan captain Sarfraz Ahmed admitted they would have liked to bat first too, but felt the slower surface in Dunedin suited their game more than the pitches for the first two games had. Pakistan welcomed back Fakhar Zaman, who passed a late fitness test and will play in place of Imam-ul-Haq. New Zealand, meanwhile, were unchanged.
Pakistan need to win this game to keep the five-match series alive, with New Zealand currently leading 3-0.
New Zealand: Martin Guptill, Colin Munro, Kane Williamson (capt), Ross Taylor, Tom Latham (wk), Henry Nicholls, Mitchell Santner, Todd Astle, Tim Southee, Lockie Ferguson, Trent Boult
Pakistan: Azhar Ali, Fakhar Zaman, Babar Azam, Mohammad Hafeez, Shoaib Malik, Sarfraz Ahmed (capt, wk), Faheem Ashraf, Shadab Khan, Mohammad Amir, Hasan Ali, Rumman Raees

Which Light Is Which?
© Updated January 9, 2014
Tweet #WorshipTools
Using the Right Light for the Right Application
So you know how to power up your lighting system and get some light on your stage, but you can't achieve the look you desire; you want to add more focus and interest but aren't quite sure how. Or maybe you were given some instructions on what to do, but you don't know the reasons behind it. In the world of lighting, half of the game is learning the vocabulary and knowing which type of light does what. We're going to cover some of those basics so you can be more confident using your existing lighting system and so you have a better understanding about what it takes to build one from scratch.
Light is good, but less light can create a stronger impact. On a brightly lit stage, adding more light to make an area stand out can result in chaos with no definition of what is important. For instance, when there are too many light beams of different colors converging on a stage at once, it will create a white-pinkish mush. So, instead of continuing to add light, create contrast. Look at the stage and start turning lights off one group at a time. The more you turn off, the more focused the stage looks. There is no rule that says all lights must be on all the time.
Using the correct light helps you to define areas of focus without overwhelming your stage with lights. There are two main categories of lighting: floodlights and spotlights. Floodlights wash your stage with a "flood" of light and should be used to cover larger areas of your stage, like lighting a choir or creating a color wash with gels to enhance the mood. Spotlights are used to focus on specific smaller "spot" areas, like lighting your pastor at the pulpit or the pianist and the piano. Choose the light that best fits your application so you don't create chaos on your stage.
Spot Lights
Ellipsoidal lights
are spot lights that are typically used as front light. Their beam can be accurately shaped using the four masking shutters so you can control where your light is focused to get a nice tight spot. Ellipsoidals are also ideal for pattern (gobo) projection. (Gobos are like stencils that block, color or diffuse light as an easy way to add texture, designs or mood.) As you explore the world of ellipsoidal lights, you'll run across the terms field angles and beam angles. Modern manufacturers use these measurements to indicate the spread of a fixture, or how wide of an area the beam covers. Beam angle is the more meaningful measurement because it indicates the angle of the beam between the peak brightness at the center down to half of the peak brightness at the edge, while field angle measures the angle from the center of the beam all the way out to just 10% of the brightness. For whichever angle you use, the rule is that as the angle narrows the fixture can be used further from the stage.
Flood Lights
PAR (Parabolic Aluminized Reflector) lights are a type of flood light. While they are considerably less expensive than Ellipsoidals, they lack the same control of the Ellipsoidals and they do not have the ability to project a pattern or produce a beam with sharp edges. They are used for a substantial amount of flat light, and are typically used to generate colors with gels. The PAR produces a soft-edged, somewhat oblong cone of light that can be shaped by attaching shutters called barndoors to minimize the "spill" into other areas. Some PAR lights are available in fixed beam widths from somewhat narrow to wide. Using color allows you to control the mood, add texture and increase the interest, which deepens the overall experience. They can also be used for side or top lighting to produce a more three dimensional look for the people and objects on your stage, which allows you to use depth to create focus. But remember, we don't want to overwhelm the stage with light, so be sure to use the barndoors to create a smaller area of focus or to prevent it from spilling into the eyes of your congregation. PAR lights are the workhorse light; they are low-cost, lightweight with easy maintenance and high durability that make them accessible even for churches with smaller budgets.
Adjustable Beam Lights
Fresnels have a beam that is wide and soft-edged, which can be adjusted from a spot to a medium flood. They are not as expensive as the Ellipsoidals but they lack the ability to project a pattern. They are best used at a medium distance from the stage, and are not good for tight focus on small areas. Fresnels create soft shadows and are commonly used for side light or top light.
PC (Plano Convex) lights are similar to Fresnels, but they use a plano-convex lens with a pebbled effect on the flat side which results in less "spill" outside the beam. They are available in North America, but they are more widely used in Europe and Asia. Its pricing falls between the Ellipsoidal and the Fresnel and it generally provides a wide range of adjustable beam angles and can be used as side light or front light. Its narrow spot is ideal for dramatic highlights, and the flood can cover a large stage area from a short throw distance.
So to recap the basics: Ellipsoidals produce narrow spots for front light, PARs produce wide floods for side or top light and for special effect lighting, specifically color washes. Fresnels and PC both have adjustable beam spread as their advantage and are used mainly for side or top light. PAR lights are the least expensive light and largest selling fixture in the US so they will probably make up the majority of your system. There is plenty more to learn about the vocabulary and design aspects of lighting, but hopefully you now feel a bit more confident about which light you use for an application.

Russell Investments has hired Elise Cardon to be a portfolio manager as part of an expansion of the firm's currency management ability.
She joins Russell's global currency management and trading team and is based in London.
The firm says the expansion of its currency management business is in response to growing investor interest in strategies to mitigate unwanted currency exposures.
Cardon will focus on currency trading and management strategies. She will report to Joseph Hoffman, global director for equity derivatives & foreign exchange.
Prior to joining Russell Investments, Cardon spent three years at Optim Invest where she developed a start-up currency management firm. She has also held positions at JP Morgan as a currency product manager, and State Street Global Advisors with responsibility for implementing and managing currency overlay programmes and developing quantitative-based currency models.
"Unintended currency exposure can swamp the returns of an international portfolio and failing to take action has the potential to be costly," says Hoffman.
Funds Europe recently reported on how currency exposures can be hedged.

STAMFORD, Conn. -- A man well-known to Stamford Police made their job simple after he was caught in a crystal-clear image from a security camera at a downtown building during an attempted burglary.
"He couldn't have looked at a camera any better," Sgt. Sean Scanlon said about Michael M. Sweeney's image. "He posed for us."
Sweeney, 42, of 495 Glenbrook Road, was charged with second-degree burglary. His bond was set at $5,000.
On the night of Friday, Aug. 5, police received calls about a break-in at a Summer Street building.
"The building had good surveillance, which is always a help to us," Scanlon said. "He pulled on numerous doors trying to gain entry, but we don't think he got in and took anything of value. But he definitely made entry into the building at night which is the definition of burglary second."
When police received images of the suspect, he was recognized immediately by investigator Rick Vetter, Scanlon said, and prepared a warrant for Sweeney's arrest.
Two officers who also know Sweeney arrested him Wednesday.

At seven-fifteen in the evening, Isadora found herself with Stanley in a small, dark meeting room on the thirty-ninth floor. She choose this spot because it was small, secluded, and it was unlikely for an intrusion to take place. Upon the wall was a projected image of a world map and various statistics on a sidebar. Some parts of the world were shaded with a light blue, a few in yellow, and even more in red.
She and Stanley met to discuss the looming Goodwin problem. A takeover by way of a board of directors vote seemed unlikely, though not impossible. Just an hour before, they listed each board member and argued which way a vote might go. In the end, they found the most likely scenario going in Isadora's favor, sixty-five to forty-five percent. It was not exactly a fantastic outcome, but Goodwin likely came up with similar figures and probably realized the unlikelihood of winning the vote. And, per Steelewood's policies, a seventy-percent majority was needed to vote out a member of the board. In this regard, Isadora felt safe.
However, the other way Goodwin could instigate a coup would be through military dominance. The map on the screen detailed the various Steelewood jurisdictions and which generals controlled them. The blue-tinted portions were for the regions which they knew favored Isadora over Goodwin. Their English branch, for instance, was completely blue. The yellow regions were completely undecided. The red zones were, alarmingly, the most numerous by an overwhelming margin. Seventy-percent of Steelewood's military were most likely to favor Goodwin in a conflict.
There could be no other conclusion: Goodwin would implement a hostile takeover, the only question was when.
Isadora slumped in her chair as she looked over the final map. Her heart sank into her stomach. "Stanley, if this is real-"
"It's horrifying, ma'am," Stanley affirmed.
"What can we do?"
"I wish I knew," Stanley said. "But I don't know. I don't know what to tell you, ma'am."
Isadora sighed, "What's stopping him from doing it now?"
"Mobilization, perhaps," he suggested. "Perhaps he hasn't yet rallied all of his troops. Perhaps he still needs to put a few pieces in place."
"Or- wait," Isadora licked her lip. "Goodwin seemed insistent today about the Fujikawa Network, about taking it over. Perhaps he's waiting for it go online to make his move. He knows he can't take it over as long as I'm in charge and no doubt there are safeguards in place to protect it from takeover before it even activates. Taking the network consolidates Steelewood's control over the world, makes us even more powerful."
"Right, whoever controls the network controls world communication."
"Goodwin doesn't just want control of Steelewood, he wants control of the world," Isadora shook her head. "We cannot allow this to happen."
"Do you have something in mind?"
"Bloody hell, no, I don't," she sighed. "We just have to wait and see what his next move will be."
"Ma'am, what if we don't catch him before it's too late?"
"Then bugger all," Isadora sighed. "What we need is a bloody miracle. Fortunately, I've still got something up my sleeve."
"What's that?"
"Where is he?" Stanley then retracted, "I know I'm not supposed to ask-"
"It's alright," Isadora nodded. "I've known about Goodwin for a long time now. I've had to take measures to keep him on a leash. The military listens to him better than they do me, which makes him an asset so long as I control him. Right now, I'm about to lose that control. I did not know that Goodwin's move was so imminent, but Sergei is out right now acting as an insurance policy of sorts. I can't give you details."
"I understand," Stanley said. "Do you think Sergei could stop Goodwin?"
"I don't know if it will be enough, to be honest. He can't possibly stop seventy-five percent of our forces, but at the very least, he can be a thorn in his side," Isadora checked her phone and looked at the time: seven-forty. She sighed, "It's growing late. I should be going home. Perhaps a night's rest will help us sort this mess out."
"Good idea," Stanley told her. "I hope you rest well."


text: This is a last ditch attempt to see if anyone else has had this problem or might be able to offer some advice. I've had a X-Rom 512Mb cart for a few years now, and unfortunately the game save function NEVER worked on this, but I thought maybe *I* was doing something wrong. By the time I got around to it, the warranty had run out. Also, shortly before the warranty had run out, the cart wouldn't play any games, it just reset when I selected a game from the LW Menu. I can't flash the cart at all using LittleWriter or USBCABLE -f. USBCABLE -f reports a "ERROR: Erase entire cart not supported for this cart type" and trying to specify the cart size or use any of the other switches results in a similar failure. Someone on the (sl)EasyBuy forums suggested that the flash chips were probably shot, and of course (sl)EasyBuy never chimed into the thread NOR answered any of my repeated e-mails for help or an offer to repair it at my cost. Of course, the carts had been long sold out by then and it's obvious they're never coming back. Tonight, I went as far as to swap the battery out in it, hoping it would help... but it didn't, it still does the same thing. So, any ideas at all?

Product Description
Sika MonoTop 620 is a one component cementitious polymer modified mortar, suitable for interior and exterior use.
Sika MonoTop 620 is pre bagged for quality and requires water to mix. Compatible with Sika FerroGard and SikaTop, MonoTop and Sikagard coatings. Sprayable by wet method.
Best Uses
Sika MonoTop 620 is best suited as a concrete pore sealer, leveling mortar or smoothing coat. Able to repair minor defeats, Sika Monotop 620 has a thin layer render suitable for honeycombed concrete for interior and exterior use.
Delaminated, weak, damaged and deteriorated concrete should be repaired using MonoTop repair mortars. High spots can be removed by grinding. Concrete surface should be cleaned and roughened using suitable abrasive blast cleaning techniques or high pressure waterblasting [up to 60 mPa (9000 psi)] techniques to achieve acceptable adhesion to the substrate. Adhesion test average must be >0.8 N/mm2 with no single value below 0.5 N/mm2 for crack bridging coatings and 1.0 N/mm2 with no single value below 0.7 N/mm2 for rigid coatings. When mixing Wet Spray Application : 2.5 to 3.5 L of water for 25kg powder for Hand Application: ~ 4.0 to 4.5 L of water for 25 kg powder. The surface should be pre-wetted to a saturated surface dry condition before application. Pre-fill surface defects before applying as a smoothing coat. Apply Sika MonoTop 620 by spatula or trowel to the required thickness and finish. Where Sika MonoTop-620 is to be overcoated, finishing with a moist neoprene sponge or brush after initial set has taken place is recommended to provide a key for the coating. Do not overwork Sika MonoTop-620 during or after applying. Should Sika MonoTop-620 mortar be wetted during the initial cure period a white 'bloom' may be produced on the surface. This however, does not affect the long term properties of the mortar.
Sika MonoTop Concrete Repair System
- Sika MonoTop-610: Bonding primer and reinforcement coating
- Sika MonoTop-612: Hand and wet spray applied repair mortar
- Sika MonoTop-615: Hand and wet spray applied high build repair mortar
- Sika MonoTop-620: Smoothing coat
Technical Details
- Avoid application in direct sun and/or strong wind and/or rain
- Pot Life: Around 35-45 minutes (at +23°C)
- Consumption: This depends on the substrate roughness and thickness of layer applied. As a guide, ~ 2.0 kg/m2/mm.
- Storage: 6 months from date of production if stored properly in original unopened, sealed and undamaged packaging in dry and cool conditions
- Appearance: Light Grey powder
- Available in 25kg bags

The match up will see 32 year old champion Tetsuya Hisada (28-9-2, 17) attempt to make his first defense of the title as he takes on fellow 32 year old Atsushi Kakutani (19-5-1, 12), who is getting his third shot at a Japanese title.
Of the two fighters it's the challenger who is the better known. He's a tall and wiry fighter who debuted back in 2008 and fought between Minimumweight and Super Flyweight, as he's looked for opportunities. That has seen him sharing the ring with a bit of a who's who, and he's suffered losses to Warlito Parrenas, Teiru Kinoshita, Adrian Hernandez and Ken Shiro whilst scoring a very notable win against Rey Loreto.
At his best Kakutani is a solid boxer-puncher, but unfortunately his lack of durability is a real issue and he has been stopped in 4 of his 5 losses, and was taken out in a round by both Parrenas and Ken Shiro.
Although "only" 32 and with "only" 25 bouts on his record the reality is that Kakutani is an old fighter. He has had a lot of damaging bouts and really has aged more than most fighters who have his raw "numbers". He has also struggled to score wins of note, often facing Thai journeymen to stay active, and that's hard helped when he's had to move up through the levels and faced of the more notable names in his career.
With 39 bouts on his record Hisada would "seem" like the older and more worn man but the reality is that his career, whilst is has been hard, hasn't really had the damaging fights, and that's depsite having more than twice as many rounds as Kakutani. His only stoppage defeat was more than 5 years ago, to Hiroyuki Hisataka, and although he has suffered losses they haven't been the break damaging beatings that Kakutani has had, where he has been dropped multiple times. Instead they have been decisions. Those losses have included defeats to the likes of Ryoichi Taguchi and Kenichi Horikawa, as well as a string of lesser names. In recent years however he has found his rhythm and got things going his way, with a 7 fight winning run, punctuated by a decision over Kenichi Horikawa in April to win the title.
Although Hisada has got power, and has stopped 6 of his last 7, he's more of a gutsy fighter, looking for a fight rather than a punch out. His engine is solid, and he can take a shot, two things we suspect could be a key here, along with his confidence and the fact he is riding the crest of momentum.
At their best this really could be a thriller. However we do believe that Kakutani has seen better days and that this version of Kakutani won't be able to last the distance with a hungry and driven Hisada, and that's despite the fact he's going to be coming in to this as a man knowing he's in last chance saloon.

so I had a great weekend but a sad one at the same time..
had a wonderfully busy time with friends.. we did get to walk on the beech, have a bbq, F1, films, food and loveliness.. but this was juxtaposed with my brother and his wife's dog Dilly going missing on Sunday morning. they looked everywhere and were hopeful for news on Monday morning.. but so far nothing.. we're all keeping our fingers and toes crossed that she's safe and will get to be home where she belongs very soon..
will be adding some photos from our weekend later.. as always I can't just pick a few.. have to show you all of them! but for now here's our office yesterday.. flowers, new furniture and clouds as my desktop!

Woody Harrelson Discloses Name Of Han Solo Mentor For Star Wars Spin-Off
Academy Award-nominated The People vs. Larry Flynt actor Woody Harrelson shared the name of the character he is playing in the Star Wars Han Solo film.
Prior to this, Harrelson had seemed to indicate that the role he would be playing was none other than Garris Shrike, a character who appeared in the Star Wars Expanded Universe and served as a mentor to the young Solo. Conversely, there is no character by the name of Beckett that appears in the Star Wars literary franchise, but one by the somewhat similar name of Bek Natal did appear in a short story from 1995.
Of course, this doesn't necessarily mean that the door has been closed on Shrike's involvement in the planned film. Prior to the release of Star Trek Into Darkness, Paramount Pictures denied up and down that Benedict Cumberbatch had been cast as Khan, maintaining that he was playing one John Harrison in the film. Harrison, of course, turned out to be a fake identity for the villain, so it's not outside the realm of possibility that the Han Solo movie might do something similar.
Per Superherohype, the source of this story:
Phil Lord and Christopher Miller (The LEGO Movie, 21 Jump Street) are directing the movie, with a cast that includes Alden Ehrenreich as Han Solo, Woody Harrelson, Emilia Clarke, Donald Glover as Lando Calrissian, Thandie Newton, Michael K. Williams and Phoebe Waller-Bridge, with Joonas Suotamo (Star Wars: The Force Awakens, Star Wars: The Last Jedi) as Chewbacca.

Would I have to start planning outfits around the tattoo like I plan for weather?
All of us at xoJane are scattered across the country doing various Thanksgiving things with family and friends, so this Open Thread will be brief, varied, and scattered.
As we all know, Thanksgiving can be stressful. We love our families, but we don't always love their points of view or their political views or the way they share their points of views and/or political views after alcohol and turkey.
So, go ahead and vent your ass off in this Open Thread or ignore Thanksgiving entirely (like the rest of the world does) and talk about anything or everything else, including, but not limited to:
Stay safe, stay sane, and listen to Adele in case of emergency.

i don't know what it does with the game font...
What you mean?
If someone was attempting to impersonate you by using a capital i instead of a lowercase L.
I doubt this is the case though.
In general, is it allowed (by Sony, TOS) to register a similar name like this? Well, it might
be possible but what if someone starts to abuse it? I think this has happend before. How
does Sony handle such a situation?

Super Yacon B
Super Yacon Price $44.95
Buy 2 Get 1 Price $89.9
Or Buy 3 Get 3 Price $134.85
Super Yacon Detail
Forget all those different bottles of weight loss supplements, all you need is Super Yacon to get your body back to where you want it.
Super Yacon brings you important, additional health benefits as well as helping you to lose weight naturally.
Super Yacon is extracted from the root of the Yacon plant (smallanthus sonchifolius) which grows in the Andes, in South America. The main ingredient is fructooligosaccharides – an imitation sugar, based on fructose. You get all the sweetness but as it stays undigested, it passes through the body intact giving you very few calories. And that's not all it does to help your weight loss plan. Super Yacon suppresses your appetite and the high fibre it contains makes you feel fuller, so no more hunger cravings; the prebiotic effect boosts healthy bacteria, helping your digestion and metabolism.
The recommended dose of Yacon root extract is 1,000 mg per day for weight loss and that is exactly what is in a daily dose (two capsules) of Super Yacon. Nothing more, nothing less.
A bottle contains 60 capsules and just two a day with the high concentration of fructooligosaccharides, inulin – a good source of dietary fibre – and small amounts of fructose, sucrose and glucose will help you to lose weight safely and naturally. At the same time you gain additional health benefits from the probiotic effect, antioxidants and high fibre.
No wonder Super Yacon is being hailed as such a great weight loss supplement!
Q. Do you have problems trying to lose weight?
A. The main ingredient in Super Yacon is fructooligosaccharides which work by feeding the friendly bacteria in the gut, benefiting your metabolism. It also gives you all the sweet taste you like with a fraction of the calories.
Q. Are you suffering from constipation, sugar lows or highs?
A. Super Yacon provides a useful source of dietary fibre which speeds up the process of digestion so constipation is dealt with quickly and naturally. As the main ingredient fructooligosaccharides cannot be digested, you get the sweet taste without sugar highs and lows.
Q. Do you find yourself snacking between meals?
A. The fibre in Super Yacon makes you feel fuller and suppresses your appetite so you don't keep feeling the urge to sneak off to the kitchen for a quick snack. Less snacking = fewer calories!
You can purchase Super Yacon with confidence, because it's backed by a no-risk, no-hassle 60 day money back guarantee!
Purchase any Super Yacon product, or take advantage of our Special Savings by ordering multiple packages and try it absolutely, RISK-FREE for 60 days!
For full money back guarantee terms, please refer to our Terms & Conditions Page

Lake Tyers State Park extends from Lake Tyers Beach to Mount Nowa Nowa. Tall eucalypt forests surround the northern shores of Lake Tyers, and a thin sand spit divides the lake from the ocean.
As well as fishing in the lake and on the Ninety Mile Beach, Lake Tyers State Park offers a number of areas for picnics, beautiful bushwalks, forest drives and basic bush camping.
How to get there
Lake Tyers State Park is situated about 20kms northeast of Lakes Entrance. The main access into the park is via Burnt Bridge Road or Tyers House Road. These are unsealed roads.
Gunaikurnai Joint Management Plan
The Gunaikurnai Traditional Owner Land Management Board (GKTOLMB) are currently developing a Joint Management Plan in consultation with Parks Victoria and the Department of Environment Land, Water and Planning.

The plan will supersede any existing plans and set out objectives for achieving sustainable management within the existing legal framework and in accordance with recognised management principles. It will also provide strategic and operational direction for the ongoing management of these parks and reserves.

This is me, at work. I'm a working girl. Full time! And those things behind me? Those are card catalogs. WHICH MEANS: I'm working at the LIBRARY this summer and not Woods Cross! Woot. Let's be honest, I kinda liked Woods Cross in the end, but I'm pretty darn happy that I can sleep in until 7 instead of waking up at 5, and that I'm sitting in a comfy chair all day instead of scraping gum off of desks. It's a nice change.
I'm actually only working at the Library for half the summer though, because guess what else?
I'm gonna be an EFY Counselor!!! YAY!
I interviewed waaaaaaay back in January and they told me it would take 4-5 weeks to hear back. And, as if that wasn't an annoying enough amount of time, it actually took them almost 3 MONTHS. That's TWELVE weeks, if you were wondering. Agh. And I am the most impatient person on the planet so that wait was absolutely agonizing. But, when I finally got the emails at 12:30AM (Yes, that's when they emailed me. Crazy people). I was SO happy!
As soon as I got over the happiness/excitement for a second though, I realized I'm kind of scared. Being an EFY Counselor is scary! I remember back to my experiences at EFY and how I had a couple of not-so-fun counselors, and it really affected my experience. I feel like the pressure is ON for me to be totally awesome. But I think it'll turn out well. I just need to be my crazy self (yes, I am crazy. Shocking isn't it?) and I'm sure it'll be great.
In other news, I finished my 6th semester of college last week. I moved out of my apartment (with the help of my wonderful roommate and friend, Cami Jo. she is THE BEST, seriously), and into this totally awesome house with my lovely friend Sarah. It's SO nice! And she's letting me live there for dirt cheap. AND I have my own room. AND I'm living with Sarah which is just fabulous. I've known her since 2nd grade, and we've been wardies for the longest time. So it's just fun. I'm livin the good life.
I know I've mentioned it several times already, but school was pretty rough for me this past semester. I kind of felt like every day was a "wow, who peed in her cheerios?" day for me. It was largely a part of my own crummy attitude, of course. But I've just also had a hard time with my professors lately, and have not been feeling motivated when I'm clearly not someone they care about and yadayadayada. I'm proud of myself for pulling through all those bad days with grades I'm really happy with though!! And goodness, it's SO nice to have a break from all that pressure. Even though I'm working 8 hours a day at the library, it's essentially stress-free. Man, my job is CUSHY. But I have needed this break for so long.
The brightest spot in my semester though, was LDV. I've said before that I should devote a whole post to this, but it probably won't happen because I'm lazy. But it needs to be said (even though I've already said it a lot) that it was amazing. Seriously life changing. Even through all my grumpiness about school, LDV was the one place I was always at peace. There was never a day I wasn't happy to be there, even when we had to be at seminaries at 6:00am. I met so many amazing people, and we felt the spirit, we sang, danced, had fun and it was an incredible experience! I'm so glad I'll have time to do it again next year. It is seriously the biggest blessing in my life.
Now it's on to a summer filled with fun! And LOTS of reading! I've already finished one book this week, and I'm half way through another one. That's seriously one of the best things about not being in school. I can read all the time and not feel guilty about slacking off on homework.
I love summer!

The Latest on a trial for a Louisiana law enforcement officer charged with murder in a 6-year-old boy's fatal shooting (all times local):
11:15 a.m.
An attorney for a Louisiana law enforcement officer charged with murder in a 6-year-old boy's shooting blames the child's father for the deadly confrontation.
A prosecutor told jurors on Monday that Derrick Stafford and another deputy marshal weren't in any danger when they fired a barrage of bullets at a car, killing Jeremy Mardis and critically wounding his father in Marksville on the night of Nov. 3, 2015.
But defense attorney Jonathan Goins said during opening statements for Stafford's trial that Jeremy's father, Christopher Few, led officers on a dangerous, high-speed chase and rammed into a deputy's vehicle before the shooting. Goins called Few as "the author of that child's fate."
The prosecutor said Few will testify he made "the biggest mistake of his life" when he didn't stop for the officers but had feared that he would lose custody of his son.
2 a.m.
Jurors are set to hear attorneys' opening statements for the trial of a Louisiana law enforcement officer charged with murder in the shooting death of a 6-year-old autistic boy.
Derrick Stafford's trial is scheduled to begin Monday in Marksville after a weeklong process of selecting 12 jurors and two alternates to hear the case.
Stafford is one of two deputy city marshals charged with second-degree murder and attempted second-degree murder over the November 2015 shooting that killed Jeremy Mardis and critically wounded his father, Christopher Few, after a car chase.
Video from a police officer's body camera shows the father had his hands raised inside his vehicle while Stafford and Norris Greenhouse Jr. fired.
Defense attorneys claim the officers acted in self-defense.
Greenhouse faces a separate trial later this year.

The Fourth of July marks the 238th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence. Monday was the final day of the U.S. Supreme Court's most recent term. The two have more in common than the justices on America's highest court seem to understand.
As usual, the Supreme Court's term ended with a flourish: the justices ruled five-to-four that closely held for-profit businesses can invoke religious objections to opt out of a requirement in the Affordable Care Act to provide free contraceptive coverage for their employees. In April they ruled, again five-to-four, that aggregate limits restricting how much money a donor may contribute to candidates for federal office, political parties, and political action committees violated the Constitution's free speech guarantee. In some of the other major decisions issued this term, the Court allowed a town government to open its board meetings with a prayer given by a citizen; upheld the 2006 amendment to Michigan's constitution that prohibits state colleges and universities from considering race as part of their admissions processes; struck down a Massachusetts law that made it a crime to stand on a public road or sidewalk within 35 feet of a reproductive health care facility; and voided President Obama's recess appointments to the National Labor Relations Board on the ground that the Senate wasn't in recess for enough days for the president to consider the Senate in recess.
Sadly, there is no unifying theme to any of these decisions, other than at least five of the nine members of the Supreme Court felt the cases should come out the way they did. In the immortal words of Ralph Fuller, "What a way to run a railroad!"
Which brings me to the matter at hand: the Declaration of Independence's role in interpreting the Constitution. With the notable exception of Clarence Thomas in civil rights cases, no member of the Court ever invokes the Declaration when deciding cases. They are wrong in failing to do so. After all, the Constitution was written for a reason: to establish a form of government that would provide better security for liberty than was provided under the Articles of Confederation, the fundamental law that the Constitution replaced.
To make the point somewhat differently, the particular provisions of the Constitution were written with the Founders' background attitudes about the purpose of government in mind. The Constitution is not an end in itself; it is the means by which the American political community's ideals -- its ends -- are ordered. It is therefore necessary to interpret the Constitution in light of those ideals; ideals expressed with unparalleled eloquence by Thomas Jefferson in the Declaration of Independence.
The necessity of keeping the Founders' background attitudes in mind when interpreting the particular provisions of the Constitution becomes even more apparent when one realizes that many of the most significant provisions of the Constitution are phrased in general terms. For example, the First Amendment's directive that Congress shall make no law "abridging the freedom of speech" is not unambiguous, nor is the Eighth Amendment's prohibition against "cruel and unusual punishments." Moving beyond the original 10 amendments, what does it mean to say, as the Fourteenth Amendment does, that no state shall deny to any person "the equal protection of the laws"? Provisions as general as these -- and there are many others in the Constitution -- are not self-interpreting. They can be given meaning and life only when they are construed in light of the moral and political principles upon which they are based.
Chief Justice John Roberts says he re-reads the Constitution every September 17, the date on which the Constitution was signed. Perhaps July 4 would be a good day for everyone, including the nine judges on the most powerful court in the world, to re-read the Declaration of Independence. As the Declaration proclaims, "to secure these rights, governments are instituted among men."

The "witch master" is an interesting profession, or calling, in Ozark folk healing. They're also often called "witch doctors" although that refers to the person being able to doctor the effects of witchcraft, not that the doctor is himself a witch. The witch master, along with the power doctor, are the two main users of what I consider to be the non-plant-based medicines of the Ozarks. That is to say that these two healers use prayers, charms, and physical objects such as curios to help remove the effects of witchcraft off of a person rather than plant derived medicines, although purgatives were at one time very popular with witch masters and goomer doctors.
Let's first look at how the witch fits into the Ozark worldview. In this worldview "magic" is almost exclusively associated with witchcraft and witchcraft is always seen in the negative. Healing work, whether it is plant-based or non-plant-based, is never considered magic, even though many researchers today will mistakenly use that word when referencing these traditions. For most of the old hillfolk the mentioning of "magic" in any situation would be seen as an insult and would likely end any conversation right there. Those who are associated with "magic" are the witches. A person could be considered a witch, despite the gender, because of accusations of using some kind of supernatural power to hurt other people. Here the word witch has strong negative connotations, and witches are often seen as folks who, in making a pact with the Devil or evil "haints" (ghosts or spirits), use their gifts to cause some sort of harm to other people in the community.
An Ozark witch master, or witch hunter, would be a profession considered on the same lines as a yarb doctor or power doctor. They are a person who has a gift (that does not have its source in magic but instead in faith) for healing and for removing curses, hexes, and any other influences that comes from witches. The main difference between the healer and the witch in this context is where the gift comes from. If it comes from God it's considered good work, but if it comes from some other place the person could be labeled as a witch. Now, this is the folklore surrounding the witch, but what is most often the case is that the local witch may in fact be a devout person but has caused some stir in the community that would lead to personal isolation and shunning. Witches are sometimes just healers who have made a few enemies.
There's also a sort of mythological association with witches as being the source of sickness or pain itself. Sometimes the source of illness is blamed on the local "witch" who lives up in the mountains or woods, other times it's blamed on a more transcendent, mythological witch figure (similar to the baba yaga of Slavic folklore). This witch, to whom sickness or pain is often sent back, usually doesn't actually exist, or is sometimes associated with the ghost of a dead "witch," but the fact remains that oftentimes, when someone feels like they have been "witched" or "hexed," the witch master will be working, not against an actual person, but against this hag of folklore.
Vance Randolph, in his work "Ozark Magic and Folklore" lists many of the techniques of the witch master for healing their clients. Many of these techniques involve practices that many people would associate with traditional witchcraft, such as the use of poppets. In the Ozark worldview, oftentimes the magic done to a person by a witch will be reversed by the same magic, only done by a witch master. That's to say that if the witch master feels like someone has hexed you by using your hair, the witch master may use some of your hair to counter it. Or if a doll is used against you, the witch master may use a doll against the witch.
There are several cases of witch masters using poppets to heal their clients. Sometimes a witch master will cut out the likeness of the witch out of paper then cut off various body parts over a certain amount of time, or shoot it through the heart with a silver bullet. Other times he will make a poppet out of cloth or clay then stick pins or nails in its body. There are also accounts of witch masters who perform a certain ritual with the pawpaw tree. The witch master takes some hair, nail clippings, or clothing scraps that belong to the witch, and then mixes it with beeswax (and sometimes blood) before balling it up on the end of a cedar-wood stake that is driven in the highest branching fork of a pawpaw tree. All of these techniques are aimed at sending back to the witch the harm that she sent to an innocent person. I've heard from people that after having gone to see a witch master they heard screaming out in the woods that they attributed to the dying witch. I've also heard that in one case the person who had been witched saw their assailant wither away into nothing over the course of a month.
There's another story that a woman couldn't get her cream to turn to butter in the churn, so naturally she suspected witchcraft, specifically witchcraft coming from her neighbor that she had quarreled with times before. So she called a witch master to help her. He came out to her house and handed her a horseshoe and told her to heat it red hot in the stove. When this was done he took it out with some tongs and after saying a prayer tossed it into the cream. After that she had no trouble churning butter, and the next time she saw her neighbor she had a big burn on the side of her face in the shape of a horseshoe.
There's an understanding with this work, however, that the witch can struggle loose from such a reversal, if she is able to find the poppet of herself. There's one technique mentioned by Vance Randolph, where the witch master takes a poppet made in the likeness of a witch into the woods and nails it through the heart into the north-facing side of a black-oak tree. The witch can escape her harm only if she is able to find this poppet in the woods. Great secrecy is taken by the witch master in their work in order to prevent a witch from ever interrupting what's being performed.
We have to look at these practices from the level of the intention that is put behind them. In the Ozark worldview there are those who do harm and those who, by faith, are able to reverse that harm. With this in mind, the practices and traditions may, in some cases, seem identical to one another. For example, the use of poppets to deal out harm versus the use of poppets to reverse that harm. Faith and language is key here; it's what separates the witch from the witch master.
