An interview with Akhil Khanna, author of Lets Talk Money – Road to Riches Made Easy:
Congratulations on such a huge success of the book! Did you expect it to be so well received?
The book Lets Talk Money – Road to Riches Made Easy is an honest attempt from my heart to impart financial knowledge to middle class readers from non-financial background, so that they are in a better equipped to decide the level of risk they would want to take with their hard earned savings. I was confident that anyone who would spend time and effort in reading this book would not be fooled into investing their money blindly in something which does not suit their risk profile.There are mainly two hurdles that prevent an investor from understanding the financial system, one is procrastination and the other is the belief that someone else out there in the world will make their life financially better or is actually interested in making them rich. Every investor has to realize that no one is more interested in your financial well being than you yourself and for that you have to devote time and effort to understand money and the rules of the game as they exist today and change from time to time.
Untouched topic, in a way. How high was the anxiety?
The anxiety level was pretty high as I never considered myself to be a writer till I started researching and began to understand the making of the Global Financial Crisis five years ago. As I did not have any experience in teaching, I thought the next best way to make people understand the severity of this financial turmoil was to write about it. Having written well appreciated articles on the financial crisis over the last four years, I decided to make an attempt in making investing simple for readers from non financial background and came up with this book which a high school student can comfortably understand and implement.
Tell us something about your struggle with getting published. We have a fair idea that it isn't a cake walk. But how was the real deal for you?
This is my first attempt to write a book. A new author is rarely backed by established publishing houses. My manuscript was turned away by a number of publishing houses because it is a non-fiction book and not a topic of mass appeal. I am grateful to Times Group Books for the confidence they placed in my manuscript and their willingness to publish it. I had made up my mind that in the worst case scenario I would go ahead and publish the book on my own as my intention to bring financial literacy to the middle class non financial background was bigger than the profit or loss made in publishing and marketing the book.
Teaching people from non finance backgrounds, about their finances, in a simple, easy-to-understand language. Was it a difficult gamble to play?
There was never any gamble to the idea because I believe that if anyone older than a high school student from any profession takes out time to read the book "Let's Talk Money", he/she will be able to manage the individual savings in a better manner and enjoy a better standard of living in the long run. The only thing required to manage one's money is the intention and willingness to do so. The whole financial system is much simpler than it is made out to be. We have to keep in mind that a normal investor is not out to become a financial wizard but is looking for enough information that helps one to broadly decide the level of risk one wants to take with the savings. Such a call can only be taken when an individual knows the level of risks associated with the different investment alternatives available. Moreover an understanding of the overall macro economy is important because there is no investment strategy that works at all times and it is necessary to change investments in response to the changes in the financial environment.
How and when did you decide to be a published author? Was it always a plan, or did you start thinking on the lines when you thought you had a plot with you.
Writing the book was never a plan. In fact I had never imagined myself as author in my wildest dreams. Things turned in the year 2007 when I was handed over the responsibility of managing the family portfolio of investments. I found that most people belonging to the middle income group invested in some asset class based on either recommendation of their friends and relatives or based on advice of the experts in the media. Following this investment method, a large no. of them lost a substantial portion of their savings after a period of few years. This led me to research about the reasons why an investor should invest in a particular asset class. My research led me to believe that a global financial crisis was brewing, which was likely to affect almost every human life on earth. I started writing articles on Global Financial Crisis in 2009 which were published on the net and were well received by the readers.
I realized that people can better manage their savings if they understood money in a simplified manner without the fancy jargon thrown at them. Moreover if the middle class of the society were shown the bigger economic picture with logical reasoning, they would be in a position to take judicious decisions as to the level of risk they would like to expose their savings. The response to my articles gave me the confidence to write this book which explains money management to a non finance person using illustrations which they can relate to in their day to day lives. This book identifies and evaluates various investment options and tries to logically link the effect of the ongoing Global Financial Crises on these investments.
Is it difficult to write with a full time job?
As I run my own business, scaling down my commercial activities to pursue my objective of researching the Global Financial Crisis and writing the book was not much of a problem.
What next? New genre; or you would want to stick to finance?
My main aim regarding "Lets Talk Money" was to simplify the basics of investing and the explanation of the ongoing Global Financial Crises to a normal investor as I believe that this unstable financial environment is going to be with us for the foreseeable future. Moreover the inherent weakness in the political systems and democracy prevalent today is likely to ensure that this crisis gets much worse before it gets better. I have tried to assign logical reasoning and highlight the key issues which led me to my conclusions. The sequel of "Lets Talk Money' is only likely if there is a change in the way the global central bankers and politicians tackle the ongoing crisis. Till then all the likely outcomes that I can think of are already covered in this book.
Who do you read, who are your favorites?
I used to be a regular reader of fiction thrillers since my schooling days which started with Hardy Boys and moved to Sidney Sheldon, John Grisham, Jeffery Archer etc and some others like the Dilbert series. In my thirties my taste in books changed to a variety of topics like Rich Dad Poor Dad, The Present, Who stole my Cheese, Many Lives Many Masters etc. Since I started researching the Global Financial Crisis five years ago, 1most of my reading time is devoted to financial news and blogs to keep myself updated on the developments in the financial world and the implications of the changes.

A service of the ABA General Practice, Solo & Small Firm Division
Vol. 8, No. 2
By Jim Calloway and Courtney Kennaday
The inspiration for this month's column came in the form of a YouTube video sent to us by a colleague, entitled " Facebook Manners and You." Whether or not you remember those scratchy, dated, black-and-white educational films from school, you'll appreciate this humorous 4 minute and 13 second video. Like all good humor, it has the ring of truth—your behavior on the Internet matters.
We both grew up in places and times where a premium was placed on having good manners. When email and electronic mailing lists came along, it seemed like communications got shorter and less formal, and some of us forgot our manners. New verbs were invented, such as "flaming" (a nasty or angry retort in an email reply) and "spamming" (sending unsolicited broadcast emails). If we used all capital letters in a message we were "shouting." A code of conduct for email interactions quickly evolved, and "netiquette"—etiquette for the Internet—was created.
Now text messaging and interacting in online social networks have caught on among attorneys and other professionals. As we substitute electronic socializing for face-to-face communication, opportunities abound that we will inadvertently offend someone, or worse. Something happens when we're alone with our words and a keyboard—we let our guard down more. Many of us are far more relaxed online than we are in person. Stop! Anything you do on the Internet or when texting with your cell phone can and will be held against you!
In fact, the media is full of cautionary tales of individuals damaging their careers or personal lives through careless or thoughtless electronic communications. There's the infamous " Cisco Fatty" story (job interviewee blows it with Twitter post), and the Philadelphia Eagles employee fired for a Facebook post, to name just a couple. We think by observing some social niceties, it's possible you won't end up as an online casualty—to that end, this week we focus on sites for good online manners.
In our search about manners on the Internet, we headed to Netlingo.com. Netlingo lets us search for Web-specific terms and definitions or browse by category. More than a dictionary, our search for "netiquette" brought up both the definition and eighteen netiquette rules. Number 1 on their list? "Do not spam." That's a good one, but our number 1 rule would be: "Don't put anything in an email or text that you wouldn't want on a busy highway billboard or the front page of the local newspaper." (We recognize that everyone violates this rule from time to time.)
You can find more netiquette rules at the Netiquette Home Page. The site contains the Web version of the book Netiquette by Virginia Shea, which has all the netiquette basics, or you can get a quick run-down of the book's top ten "Core Rules of Netiquette." Smart Computing also has advice on netiquette, including this article with the advice to count to ten before sending anything over the Internet. You can find more tips by doing a site search for "netiquette."
If you'd like to read a nice essay on civility on the Internet, Salon.com has an essay, Mind your Manners Online . The author argues persuasively that the future of the Internet hinges on manners.
Longing for a modern day Emily Post to help you through this manners morass? We found NetManners.com, which fills Emily's shoes quite nicely. There's Email Etiquette 101, which explains in detail everything you need to know about email courtesy. It's full of great advice, and tidbits like "Online Perception Is the Only Reality." You can sign up for email notification, ask the site mistress "Judith" questions, check out the glossary, and read "how-to" articles.
Is there anything specific to lawyers and netiquette? Well, many states have adopted professionalism codes, which arguably extend to lawyers' behavior on the Internet. You can find links to them by state at the ABA Center for Professional Responsibility.
Sometimes being polite is just a matter of understanding the local rules and customs, both written and unwritten. Google failed us on locating unwritten rules of courts. (Are you listening Google?) But LLRX.com has a "must bookmark" page with links to more than 1,400 sources for state and federal court rules, forms, and dockets. Jim notes that the Oklahoma Supreme Court has links to lots of local rules. Your state court's website probably offers something similar—look for "local court rules."
What about the new world of online social networking sites, like Facebook and MySpace? With more than 200 million members, chances are you're either on Facebook or have at least heard of it. However, you may not be familiar with LinkedIn. LinkedIn has the reputation of being a more "grown-up" social network—one that professionals will feel comfortable in. In fact, we've overheard more than a few lawyers say they use LinkedIn for "work" and Facebook for "personal." So, if you like the idea of doing more online networking, but still want to keep it professional, give LinkedIn a look.
Netiquette in social network sites can differ a good bit from email. A social media consultant has put together The Ultimate Social Media Etiquette Handbook. The handbook is a concise rundown of the most popular social networking sites and etiquette recommendations for each. For example, you shouldn't use a fake name as your Facebook name or consistently use your Twitter stream for nothing but self-promotion.
We hope that you take this column as a gentle reminder to watch your manners online just as you do in person. If our column has in any way offended you, we apologize, and ask that you refer to Rule 10 of the Core Rules of Netiquette: Be forgiving of other people's mistakes.

July 28, 2014 -- Gregg Blanchard
With the email-idea-bucket full after the last few week's shenanigans, I'm passing on the "innovation in email marketing" post today to cover something important. Something big. Something, to be frank, I wish I were better at.
So I'll start with what I know, bring in the people who know it better, and then finish with one of the coolest, most intriguing manifestations of this our industry has seen in a while.
We're gonna talk about pricing strategy and, more specifically, yield management.
A Brief History
Yield management, as defined by Wikipedia, goes something like this:
"Yield management [is] a specific, inventory-focused branch of revenue management [that] involves strategic control of inventory to sell it to the right customer at the right time for the right price."
Rather than those elements – person, time, price – acting independently as they so often do, it's a combination of those factors that is critical to the success of any yield management strategy.
The First Round
Largely considered the first illustration of yield management, American Airlines Ultimate Super Saver fares highlighted the idea that seems to be found in the underpinnings of all successful application of this principle ever since.
According to an article by the New York times, these fares had a series of fine points that must be met in order to save up to 75%:
- Flights were only available between Jan 8 and Feb 10
- Only 50% of the ticket price was refundable.
- You had to purchase at least 30 days in advance
Specific dates, non refundable prices, and advanced purchase.
Each of these elements point to one important word: commitment.
The Big Lesson
As I feebly study yield management, this is the takeaway I find myself at over and over again: success is a matter of matching buyer commitment to product price.
Commitment, by its definition, comes paired with a sister attribute of risk. Risk that needs might change. Risk that you might wake up sick. Risk that a better offer will come along. Risk of anything but Plan A.. So the balance between price and risk is critical. As you'd expect, data are the key to finding that balance.
On the surface, season passes – a set price for unlimited use that only makes sense with a certain level of actual use – are a simple manifestation of this in our industry.
Tomorrow, however, we'll dig a little deeper into how this principle has shown up in skiing.

In December I was commissioned by Ed Carter to produce a visual score for his project Arborescent. Inspired by the composer Iannis Xenakis the project brings together visual artists and musicians to make experimental music and imagery.
I met Ed in Pink Lane Coffee Shop. We both knew each other by reputation and had both received commissions for the Cultural Olympiad in 2011 but hadn't met in person before. Upon meeting he bought me a coffee, always a good start. We talked in detail about his idea and project and how he thought my paper installations would make for an interesting score. I asked what he had seen (of my work) before and he recalled an installation I made at Globe Gallery in 2010.
I showed him a score I had made recently with Ben Freeth based on a suitcase belonging to the composer Granville Bantock bequeathed to the Library of Birmingham. He was unaware of this work and it made me wonder again about sound and where it could sit within my practice, how it seemed to be an option to revisit. I took this as some sort of sign and agreed to the project.
I did some research on visual scores before our meeting, mostly a google search and created a Sound board on Pinterest.
My first thoughts were to think about the piece sculpturally. What little I knew of visual scores, were that they were mostly 2Dimensional imagery or graphics and I wanted to think about the space too, as this seemed quite important.
The score (alongside two other visual scores) would be sited at an event and played by three experimental musicians. The venue was Ouse St Arts Club, a space ran by Xsite Architecture and located in Ouseburn, NE6 which consisted of two shipping containers bolted together.
A few days later I met Ed at the venue and took some photos to refer to while I made the work.

When you're just beginning to learn kick boxing, the only precaution you need to take is to stay out of someone else's reach. Shadow boxing or finding your fighting stance in front of the mirror are hardly dangerous situations. This is why, by the time you get to the actual kicking and punching part, you may forget that this is a semi-contact sport with a high rate of injury infliction possibility, if practiced carelessly.
Injuries aren't necessarily caused by an opponent, as I got to learn on my own skin. Apparently, they can appear anytime you hit parts of your body on hard objects. And in kickboxing training, that is pretty much all that you do. Protecting your body should be the first of your concerns whichever your sport or practice of choice might be. In kickboxing, you might keep your head out of serious blows, but the hands, feet, elbows and knees are bound to be used and thus, easily hurt.
Like I mentioned above, I've got over-confident while I was doing my beginner's practice and when I finally started practicing on a heavy bag, I suffered the consequences of my stupidity and for quite some time.
I was alone in the gym when I thought some music will help me concentrate better and maybe create an impulse to increase the power of my strikes, and I was right. I got so worked up because of the rhythm, that I started punching harder and harder, even though after a while my fists started to hurt pretty bad. I did get to wrap my wrists before I started the practice, but that only helped with keeping the wrists in place. By the time I finished, I could barely feel my fingers and pain began to install deeper and deeper into my hands. The injuries I suffered that day kept me away from the gym and this sport for months, not to mention that in the first two weeks, I couldn't really use my hands but for the simplest tasks, and with major discomfort.
This is the main reason I decided to write this post: to prevent anyone practicing or who contemplates the idea of starting to practice kickboxing that wearing gloves is essential. I've heard other fighters, especially teens, saying that wearing gloves is a sign of weakness. I've come to realise wearing protective equipment is a sign of wisdom. Gloves, wraps, knee pads, they don't exist for avoiding pain, but for protecting the integrity of the body, the very body you need in order to do what you love. Kickboxing is a sport with an aggressive side to it, and where there's aggressiveness, there's always a good chance that somebody gets hurt. Heavy bags are specially designed to return the resistance a human body would, but sometimes they can be even stronger. Constantly punching them doesn't weaken them like it would a human body. I know from my own experience how one can get lost in this activity and keep on doing it for hours. Having a glove to protect your fist will make sure you can do so without permanently damaging your hand.
If you'd like to try out kickboxing for yourself, here are two videos that might help:

I like this elegant ginger-y scallop dish when I have little time and guests to impress. Serve with rice or crusty bread and a leafy salad.
Delicious! I made just a few changes - I added several cloves of chopped garlic and added the juice of a lemon to the sauce. I used the large sea scallops, they're a little pricey, but worth the cost. Also, I sauteed the scallops separately in a pan sprayed with lemon flavored non-stick spray, 2 minutes or so each side, then put them in the sauce for just a minute before serving. I like the texture of sauteed scallops better than those cooked in a sauce. The fresh ginger is so much better than the bottled stuff. Will be making this again and again, thanks! - 15 Apr 2006 (Review from Allrecipes US | Canada)
Great Aroma and Great over rice as suggested - might want to consider cooking the scallops prior to adding to pan since the moisture relased by the scallops made for a much longer cooking time in order to get the reduction in sauce needed - my wife had the leftover sauce over rice for breakfast - thanks - 15 Feb 2001 (Review from Allrecipes US | Canada)
My family couldn't get enough of this one. I didn't have fresh ginger root so I subbed the spice powder--tasted incredible. A keeper. - 09 Jun 2003 (Review from Allrecipes US | Canada)

Children of different ages handle divorce differently. When their lives are suddenly split between two parents and two households, younger children often show fear of the future and express their longing for the former family life. Adolescent children, however, usually have a better understanding of the finality of divorce. They may pull away from their parents and assert their need for independence.
Young children are more dependent
Children younger than nine are still at the stage when family life means everything. They are closely connected to their parents and depend on them for love, security and ongoing care. It is not unusual for young ones to fantasize about their parents getting back together; in fact, such wishful thinking helps to soften the sharp edges of the pain caused by the family breakup. By providing the day-to-day routine and consistency that children need, and making sure they understand they are still loved as much as ever, divorced couples who have implemented an effective co-parenting plan are sure to find that young children will gradually accept the new changes in their lives.
Adolescents may rebel
Children who are nine and older are able to understand divorce better and are more able to suppress the grief that their younger siblings exhibit. The older they are, the more realistic; they realize that reconciliation between their parents might not happen and that life is simply going to be different from here on out. Feeling a rift in family life that cannot be repaired and that their parents can no longer be trusted, some may give in to their resentment and anger and react to the divorce in rebellious ways.
What to expect
Those who are entering their teen years are usually not as dependent as younger children are in the family unit. Since their parents have failed to keep family commitments, adolescents may decide they are under no obligation to adhere to family rules. They have developed outside relationships and may begin to rely more heavily on friends, teachers and coaches than on their parents. They may act in a more aggressive manner and begin to distance themselves from family members.
Helping children survive the divorce
Three factors help children of all ages adjust to life after divorce. They must have a strong relationship with both parents, there must be a good co-parenting plan in place and parents must ensure that children have limited exposure to conflict. Divorce is a life-changing event for everyone in the family, and those who have questions or struggle with acceptance by older children may wish to seek advice from an attorney experienced with family law matters.

Bible Reading: 2 Timothy 2:19-23; Matthew 13:24-30
Not everybody who attends church belongs to Jesus or is a part of God's Kingdom. This might be a shock to some people. John Newton who wrote the hymn "Amazing Grace" once commented that there will be three surprises in heaven – "Some people I didn't expect to see there will be there; some people I expected to see there will not be there; and I'll be there!"
Paul refers to this as he speaks about vessels of honour and vessels of dishonour [verse 20] in a large house. The house is generally understood to mean the church. Those vessels that are in the house but are of dishonour refer to those who are not sanctified, not useful to the Master, and not prepared for every good work. This would suggest that they do not belong to Jesus, but in the final analysis, God, not us is the judge.
Perhaps a key verse in this whole passage is verse 19, "The Lord knows those who are His, and, "Let everyone who names the name of Christ depart from iniquity." The word "knows" means to be intimately acquainted with. These people are vessels of honour, intimately related to the Lord, and He uses them for His noble purposes. They are vessels of gold and silver.
The Lord wants holy people doing His work – those who are cleansed of wrong conduct as well as wrong teaching. It is clear that within the church there were dishonourable vessels, which could become vessels of honour, if only they would purge themselves of wrong influences and worldly priorities. Literally, anyone who claims to be the Lord's must demonstrate this as they depart from iniquity.
Jesus deals with this same issue of both righteous and unrighteous in the parable of the wheat and tares [Matthew 13:24-30]. The kingdom of heaven is like a man who sows good seed. The result is wheat. At the same time the enemy sows tares among the good seed. They grow up together and are in the same field. The farmer wanted to pull up the tares but Jesus said, "No, you will hurt the wheat if you do" [verse 29 NLT]. They were to wait until the final harvest when the tares would be gathered and burned but the wheat would be gathered into the Kingdom.
Many years ago I preached about God's sovereignty, holiness and power in a church in the North of England. We had left the building but were called back,
and found the pastor lying on the floor behind the piano and crying out for mercy. We discovered that as the pastor he had been living a lie, and that night God dealt with the sin in his life. It was a new man who rose from a religious life that covered his sinful living. That night he became a vessel of honour and no longer a vessel of dishonour!
A Question:
Why do you think God allows godly and ungodly people to remain in His church? What will happen at the Day of Judgment?
A vessel of honour is sanctified, useful for the Master, and prepared for every good work. Are you a vessel of honour?

'old as time'
Like how this could refer to multiple things -- the practice of burning incense, prayer, offerings, etc. :)

yes, many things. i was trying to show that these rituals (burning incense) were very old, passed down from generations.
i was hesitant to use "old as time", seems cliched, but i can't think of a better phrase.
thanks for your comment, Liz. :)

Taken casually on its own,perhaps it's a cliche. I think it really works in this one. The phrase fits nicely, so I don't think we have to worry about how it is regularly used. :)
- January 13, 2012 at 1:20 PM
- dsnake1 said...
yeah, i think taken in the whole context, it works. :)
sometimes we use cliches without noticing it, and that's a concern for a poet.

I've noticed that stderr is almost always empty on Windows, unless you get an OOM error. That will show up there. Could it possibly be getting routed to another log file? Or eaten by the JVM? Is this one of those swalloutOutput instances? Someone else might be able to answer.

How To Use Your Device And Sleep At Night Without Ruining Your Eyes
Do you use your smartphone , tablet or desktop late at night? Researches suggest that the blue light produced by the LCD screen of your device can harm your sleep. It messes your natural circadian rhythm as a result of which you find it hard to sleep.
Melatonin is a very important hormone responsible for sleep-wake cycles. Melanopsin Photoreceptor in your eyes is sensitive to a narrow band of blue light which is known to suppress Melatonin production.
Studies suggest that if you use your device late at night for hours, your sleep may be cut short by as long as an hour.
Using apps that sync with sun cycle and reduce blue light emission from your screen accordingly is the wisest thing to do (besides not your using your device at night, which, we know you won't stop doing).
You can use Twilight for Android devices and Flux for desktops, macs and iOS

The hottest hitter in baseball was at Kauffman Stadium on Tuesday.
After going one for three with an RBI, Royals catcher Salvador Perez's .400 average since Aug. 23 is the best in the major leagues over that span, during which he has six home runs and 24 RBIs.
"He's having a great stretch," manager Ned Yost said. "It couldn't come at a better time for us. You want guys heating up when you're in contention like we are right now to produce as much offense as we can to provide some breathing room if you will for our outstanding pitching staff."
After missing time earlier in the season (bereavement leave, the seven-day concussion list and a bruised hip), Perez is in a good place.
"I'm feeling better right now," Perez said. "I'm just doing in my job and working in the cage and doing what I can in a game."
And it's not just Perez's bat that makes him valuable.
Perez, 23, gives Royals pitchers a sense of calm.
"He's, if not the best, then one of the best catchers in the American League defensively and offensively, too," said pitcher Aaron Crow. "It makes you feel great. It doesn't matter if there's a guy on third and you try and throw a slider in the dirt, you have 100 percent confidence that he's going to field the ball no matter where you throw it.
"It doesn't matter if Mike Trout is out there or Jarrod Dyson or Emilio Bonifacio if they were on the other team, you wouldn't be them stealing a base, because he's so good at catching and throwing the ball too."Roster moves
The Royals cleared space for starter Yordano Ventura on their 40-man roster by placing first baseman Carlos Pena on the 60-day disabled list after he had an appendectomy. Pena appeared in four games and struck out in all three of his plate appearances for the Royals.
Left-hander Danny Duffy (left forearm strain) was placed on the 15-day disabled list, retroactive to Sept. 8. He will be eligible for reinstatement on Sept. 23.Winning at home
Remember that 11-game home losing streak in May? How about that seven-game skid in games at The K in August?
Despite those brutal stretches, the Royals have already sewn up a winning home record. At 41-36, the Royals are guaranteed their first winning record at Kauffman Stadium since going 42-39 in 2000.Minor notes
Two Royals affiliates won championships on Tuesday.
• Left-hander Chris Dwyer pitched one-hit ball over seven innings as Class AAA Omaha beat Durham 2-1 on Tuesday night in the Triple-A Championship game in Allentown, Pa.
Dwyer had eight strikeouts for the Storm Chasers, who won the Pacific Coast League title. Durham, the Rays' affiliate, was the champion of the International League.
• Rookie-Advanced Idaho Falls won 6-0 at Helena in game three of the Pioneer League Championship Series. The Chukars won two games to one.Etc.
• Shortstop Alcides Escobar saw his 10-game hitting streak end Tuesday.
• Third baseman Mike Moustakas had two doubles, which ties a career high. He's done it five times, most recently July 23 against Baltimore. He has 24 RBIs since the All-Star break.
• Second baseman Emilio Bonifacio, who was one for four with a walk, is hitting .345 at Kauffman Stadium since joining the Royals via a trade on Aug. 14.

The Achilles Comet is a dangerous comet that sometimes passes the Earth. During the time it is passing the Earth, it messes up the Earth's magnetic field, and that causes the Thundermans' super powers to go wonky. The Achilles Comet was first and only shown in Going Wonkers.
In this state, they go out of control and cause them to occur unintentionally. Staying calm is the only way to keep there powers in check.
Effects on Superpowers
- Billy superspeed auto runs
- Nora automatically shoots lasers and laser lines
- Max and Phoebe automatically freeze stuff burn stuff and move stuff
- Barb shoots lightning everywhere
- Hank destroys stuff in one touch and automatically flies up high
Phoebe and Max are able to overcome its affects and stay in control, if they stay within three feet of each other, due to them being twins.
- According to Barb, the comet last came when Phoebe and Max were infants, implying it to be around 13-14 years ago.
- This has only appeared in one episode.
- There are also after effects a minute after it passes
- When there is only one hour till it passes the earth the wonkiness gets progressively worse.
- Achilles Comet is the first thing that messes with the Thundermans power. The second thing is the Flamingo Flu.

Learning how to bet correctly and knowing all of the ins and outs of gambling does not happen overnight. The gambling market is massive and there are pros and rookies all over the world. There are so many different ways to wager on different sports and different types of bets that it makes it easy to see why beginners make mistakes. Here are a few betting tips for bettors just getting into the market. If you follow these tips, you will be in a better position to start gambling.
Know it? Bet it.
Gamblers are not always massive sport fans; some sportsbook customers are gamblers first and then sport fans second. However I am sure you brought some knowledge with you and because you are reading this you are no longer a "newbie". Everyone has their own sports knowledge bank and their favorite sports that they like to watch. The first tip would be to bet on sports that you know something about. If you never miss your teams hockey game, start betting on NHL. You will eventually learn more about other sports, but in the beginning, stick to sports that you already have an understanding of.
Emotions? Forget them.
I know we just told you if you're starting out to bet what you know, but there's a difference between placing wagers on sports you're familiar with and betting with your heart. Just because you have a piece of paper (diploma) from some college or high school and own the point guards jersey of your hometown NBA team does not mean that wagers on those teams are the best move. It's one thing to be a sports fan, it is another thing to be a sports investor. Don't be afraid to bet against your favorite team just because you want to cheer for them.
What is Downtime?
There is downtime in every sport, every team will experience it. Downtime will affect different sports in different ways. In the NFL and CFB, a bye week gives the team time to rest and plan for an upcoming opponent. However, if an MLB team finishes a playoff series early and has to wait for their opponent's series to finish, they may be out of practice or shape. By understanding how these days off will affect the teams that you bet on, you will have another advantage when placing your bet.
KISS: Keep it simple, stupid.
Gambling can get complex, if you want it to be. There are props, parlays, teasers, and of course The Grand Salami. Don't be afraid to just stick to the basics and just make wagers on the outcome of games you're familiar with. Start with just a few bets and get used to it, then experiment with more complex wagers.

SOURCE: Cellceutix
September 07, 2016 07:00 ET
BEVERLY, MA--(Marketwired - September 07, 2016) - Cellceutix Corporation (OTC: CTIX) ("the Company"), a clinical stage biopharmaceutical company developing innovative therapies with oncology, dermatology, antibiotic, and anti-inflammatory applications, today announces that management will present at two upcoming conferences highlighting the continuing advancement of the Company's clinical programs.
Sign-up for Cellceutix email alerts is available athttp://cellceutix.com/email-alerts/ - sthash.CRfqSmmY.k6MzKBo8.dpbs
About Cellceutix: Headquartered in Beverly, Massachusetts, Cellceutix is a publicly traded company under the symbol "CTIX". Cellceutix is a clinical stage biopharmaceutical company developing innovative therapies in multiple diseases. Cellceutix believes it has a world-class portfolio of compounds and is now engaged in advancing its compounds and seeking strategic partnerships. Cellceutix's anti-cancer drug Kevetrin concluded a Phase 1 clinical trial at Harvard Cancer Centers' Dana Farber Cancer Institute and Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center, and Cellceutix is now preparing its plans for a Phase 2 study. In the laboratory Kevetrin has shown to induce activation of p53, often referred to as the "Guardian Angel Gene" due to its crucial role in controlling cell mutations. Cellceutix is in a Phase 2 clinical trial with its novel compound Brilacidin-OM for the prevention of Oral Mucositis in patients with head and neck cancer. Brilacidin-OM, a defensin mimetic compound, has shown in an animal model to reduce the occurrence of severe ulcerative oral mucositis by more than 94% compared to placebo. Cellceutix's anti-psoriasis drug Prurisol completed a Phase 2 trial and Cellceutix is now setting up a Phase 2b study. Prurisol is a small molecule that acts through immune modulation and PRINS reduction. Cellceutix's lead antibiotic, Brilacidin, has completed a Phase 2b trial for Acute Bacterial Skin and Skin Structure Infections, or ABSSSI. Top-line data have shown a single dose of Brilacidin to deliver comparable clinical outcomes to the FDA-approved seven-day dosing regimen of daptomycin. Brilacidin has the potential to be a single-dose therapy for certain multi-drug resistant bacteria (Superbugs). Cellceutix has formed research collaborations with world-renowned research institutions in the United States and Europe, including MD Anderson Cancer Center, Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center, and the University of Bologna.

The challenge
Young lads know they shouldn't carry a knife. They know they're more likely to get stabbed if they carry one. They know how quickly they can bleed to death if they're stabbed. Yet it still doesn't stop them.
The bold idea
Show these lads what effect their actions could have on the one person they care about more than anyone else – their mum.
The results
Convictions for knife crime were down 18% year on year and, as a result of our campaign, 64% of our core target audience were motivated not to pick up a knife.
We can do this for you too
We love working with brands that want to outsmart their competitors. If that sounds like you, let's talk2.

The Trust's first priority is the preservation and renovation of Murgatroyd's Brine Pumps.
Middlewich has a history of salt production dating back at least to the iron age and coming forward via Roman salt working, the medieval period, and the industrial revolution into the 20th century.
Archeological artefacts are displayed in the town's library but the evidence on the ground for iron age, Roman, and medieval salt production is now buried beneath 20th century development.
The only above ground evidence of this most important of the town's industries is Murgatroyd's brine pumps, a listed ancient monument, and the only known pumps in the UK which are sited on their original brine shaft.
More detail about the pumps can be found at
The pumps have been in the possession of the Cheshire East Council and its predecessor authority for many years through which time, for lack of funds because of the other demands on local government resources, their condition has deteriorated.
With the active agreement of Cheshire East Council, the Trust will take possession of the pumps when current remedial works, funded in the main by Historic England, are complete.The trust will then seek to raise funds to restore the pumps to make them accessible to the public in their own right and also as part of the wider canal and salt history in Middlewich and in the adjoining salt towns.
To do this, the Trust will need help, both financial and non-financial, so if you would like to help, please contact us at

A variety of walks on offer enable you to join the celebrations on the top of Mt Herbert, the highest point on Banks Peninsula.
