Money, the root of all evil. Not the most romantic thing to be discussing with your future husband or wife, but if you're incompatible in how you view it, it can be the ruination of a relationship.
If your ideas on how money should be spent or saved are at odds with each other before you get married it can become a big problem, not only after your wedding but even throughout the planning process as you discuss how much you're each willing to spend on every element of your wedding. You don't necessarily have to have the same opinions, but you have to come to an agreement about it.
7. Money, Money, Money
Gareth and I view money very differently. You can probably guess that I'm a 'spend! spend! spend!' kinda girl. It burns a hole in my pocket and I love nothing more than shopping up a storm. I've never got myself into debt, had a credit card or spent money I don't have, but I always think "I've worked hard for this, I deserve to have fun with it!"
Gareth is much more sensible and thinks we should be saving to pay off our mortgage (BORING!) and setting up pensions (even more boring!) But its OK that we have these differences of opinion, what matters is that we respect each other's wishes and have an agreement in place. We have a joint account but I also have my own account for my own frivolity which he can't complain about!
It's easier said than done, but do not worry about money. Arguing about it is futile because at the end of it you're still broke. Arguing is not going to change anything, it will only drive a wedge between you. What will change something is working as a team and finding ways – together – to make your situation work. If one person is secretly going out and spending when you're struggling as a couple, then that's when the cracks will start to show.
The mechanics of how the two of you will handle your finances isn't really the issue. You have to decide what works for you and forget how everyone does it. I have married friends who only have separate bank accounts, others who have one partner that pays for everything, one who gives their partner an allowance and some that pool all their money.
There is no right or wrong answer. The issue is whether or not the two of you can calmly and practically talk about money, and resolve any problems that might arise as a team.

Quite selfishly I need to understand better how to input data for my Italian ancestors.
1. What is the historical period break out / change? For instance, English conventions changed a couple of times: with the adoption of surnames (ca 1200s); with the adoption of middle names (ca 1700s). But my understanding is that this may be different in different countries.
2. What are the rules for baptismal names?
3. What are the naming patterns? (a sub paragraph, I know, but would be helpful for me: for instance, if the convention is that "families may have used Leopardo as the first name for multiple generations" that is helpful to me).
4. What were the "usual" ways names were anglicized in the United States? (another subparagraph)
5. How do Italian Americans names now differ, if at all, from names in Italy?
6. Appropriate citation data welcome.
Available fields:

PFET high-side load switch with level shift and slew-rate control offers flexibility benefits
Offering support for the industry's widest supply voltage range at 1.0 V up to 8 V, the TPS27081A is the most flexible replacement for discrete FET switches.
The load switch also offers adjustable slew-rate control so designers can implement the device in any application that requires load switching or power sequencing, including notebooks, tablets, LCD televisions, global positioning systems (GPS) and set-top boxes.
The TPS27081A offers a higher voltage range of operation for both the on/off function and input/output voltages supports wider range of applications with lower bill-of-materials cost.
Supply inputs are fully protected against ESD strikes on all pins, thus providing better ESD compatibility with other on-board components than the competition. Low ON resistance with the high-current PFET ensures low voltage drop across the PMOS transistor.
High-pulsed current rating allows reliability under short-circuit conditions, which ensures longer product lifetimes. The TPS27081A is available in a 2.9×1.6×0.75mm thin SOT-23 (DDC) package.

LG introduced us to the new Modular design LG G5 last year and while the idea of the modular design was great, the LG G5 itself wasn't that great. Fans were also not too happy when LG announce that the LG G5 will not be coming with a wireless charging feature, a feature that was offered on the LG G4.
Well, according to ETNews, the new LG G6 will be coming with the wireless charging feature but that is not the only thing that we should be happy about. They also added that the device could finally be water resistance.
While most of the premium flagship out there is water resistance now, LG has bever adopted the features but that could be happening this year.
It is believed that the new LG G6 will also come with a new design and includes a glass back. We should be seeing the LG G6 at the MWC this year.

"Their current monthly pension gives from €28 (= $32) to €60 (= $68), while Waffen-SS volunteers received €1.500 (= $1.706)."
"Madam Chancellor, there are less than 150 surviving Dutch Ghetto Workers. They say 'Hitler killed us brutally! Today's Germany is killing us softly!'"
"The Federal Republic of Germany must immediately redeem its good name...Further procrastination will be construed as Germany abandoning its historical moral responsibility - a shocking message to the next generation."
Paris, 20 August 2018
In a letter to German Chancellor, Angela Merkel, the Simon Wiesenthal Centre Director for International Relations, Dr. Shimon Samuels, highlighted the "scandalous situation of Ghetto Child Forced Labourer pensions"... "as their numbers dwindle, demanding urgent justice"... "they are currently subject to unjust bureaucratic foot-dragging and heartless legal obstacles."
The letter continued: "For this analysis, please note an important official German publication: 'Anerkennung der Arbeit im Ghetto', dated July 11, 2014,on the website of the Bundesregierung":
https://www.bundesregierung.de/Content/DE/Artikel/2014/04/2014-04-08- ghettorenten
SEE text also in PDF attachment: "Federal Government webpage article"
"This highlights how, in April 2014, the Bundestag had finally and unanimously decided on a 'worthy pension' ('angemessene Rente') for 'all' Holocaust Ghetto workers..."
"In addition, please recall the spirit of your public statement as Chancellor during a visit to Israel in April 2007":
SEE text also in PDF attachment: "Federal Foreign Office webpage article"
"Only by fully accepting its enduring responsibility for this most appalling period and for the cruellest crimes in its history can my country, can Germany, shape the future. There is no alternative."
Samuels expressed shock that, "in reality, those survivors born after 1934 were not deemed worthy of a pension and the 'lucky' recipients were fobbed off with a monthly payment of between €11,00 (= $12,50) and €60,00 (= $68,26), at today's valuation. Most of these payments only began in 2013, though promised - but never delivered - as retroactive since 1997."
In the case of Dutch applicants a one-time "compensation" payment was made selectively, some twenty years after the war, then equivalent to €1.442,00 ($1,642.91). This figure was presented as final reparations to cover the loss of parents and property, without consideration of the rights of other relatives, and other material losses. These applications were processed at random and most were rejected.
Samuels recalled how, "in 1998, the Simon Wiesenthal Centre was called to Bonn by then Federal Labour Minister, Norbert Blum. Apparently, service in the Wehrmacht under Hitler endowed a pension - even to war widows...", that, "following German reunification, thousands of requests were arriving, not just from the former East Germany, but also from Nazi collaborators in the former East European Communist countries, especially Slovakia, Belarus, Ukraine,even fugitives in Latin America etc... We were asked to identify the military units responsible for war crimes to save the Federal Republic from a pension tsunami."
He continued, "we noted that for over 50 years, the Justice Ministry had cooperated with Simon Wiesenthal, while there - just down the road in Bonn, then capital of West Germany - the families of countless Nazi Wehrmacht, were receiving a 'worthy pension'."
The Centre was asked by a Dutch claimant to assist in solving the discriminatory treatment of, especially Dutch Child Ghetto forced labourers. He calls them a "forgotten group of Holocaust victims, who deserve better than the strict rules and regulations imposed by German law. That is not just!", he argued.
This mid-80s claimant began to receive his pension in 2013: €11,96 (= $13,61) per month. Following his complaints, this was gradually increased to €28,81 (= $32,81).
Samuels stressed that, "in view of our office's intervention, the Dutch income tax authority assured us that it would end taxation of these so-called 'pensions' "... "In contradistinction, however, from the end of the War the new Federal Germany paid up to €1.500,00 (= $1.708,42) monthly, to 25,000 Dutch former volunteer Waffen-SS, 'tax-free'."
The letter emphasized that, "today, there are less than 150 Ghetto labourer survivors in the Netherlands. A similar attrition rate prevails among survivors in all communities."
The Centre urged the Federal Republic of Germany "to immediately, without prejudice, redeem its good name... Further procrastination will be construed as Germany abandoning its historical moral responsibility - a shocking message to the next generation."
A profile of the victims of German pensions' injustice, depicts a claimant at the age of 5, who lived and worked in the Amsterdam ghetto, where he was forced to work 12 hours daily and was deported at age 7 to a concentration camp, where he was ordered to pull bodies to mass graves.
Our claimants' "J'Accuse" is loud and clear: "Hitler killed us brutally! Today's Germany is killing us softly!"...
"As their numbers dwindle, justice is an urgency. If not now - when?" concluded Samuels.

SOCHI, October 19. /TASS/. Russian President Vladimir Putin has expressed hope that the country's economy has coped with the impact of such factors as low global energy prices and sanctions pressure.
"Hopefully, we have already passed the stage in the economy when falling energy prices and sanctions pressure had an impact," he said at a meeting of the Valdai Discussion Club on Thursday.
According to Putin, the Russian economy has been demonstrating growth for the fourth consecutive quarter. "I think that this year the economy will show a modest yet considerable 2% rise after a recession," he said.

Almost a year after wearing the iconic 114060 looks of Rolex submariner replica. I came to a conclusion-at least this is a very sturdy watch. I want to give myself a lot of people.
The strength of the Swiss watch company is that in many ways. There is more demand for famous brands than the products it produces.
People often say to me: "Elves, I want a replica Rolex submariner. I usually answer:" So, do you want a copy of Rolex? The answer is: "I don't know, that's why I need your help. I need you to help me choose one. "
The news is that Rolex replicas are more representative of the company's image than the company's products in many ways.
But in any case, the product is everything.
The good news is that Rolex watches rarely disappoint you in terms of products. If someone asks me why the best Rolex submariner replica is a successful brand, I often point out, "Their products are excellent.
Of course, fake Rolex submariner will not make you think that it is not the best. But it is undeniable that in addition to the excellent brand image. It is also a useful timer.
One of Rolex submariner replica eBay's most popular watches is that the Rolex replica is not a bestseller. Asking a "watch" is the best watch, something most of us would point to "oyster professionals" to collect. Such as submarines or Greenwich (and so on).
Ask where the sales of Rolex Replica come from, and they will tell you something completely different.
From a business perspective, Rolex replicas will share date adjustments in the most popular product lines, diamonds, especially women's models.
Therefore, yes, watch lovers and "ordinary people" have different watch tastes.
It is what I have known for a long time, and maybe I will explore further in the future. It must be said that, like Rolex submariner replica cheap. The Tag Heuer-it is not strictly to continue to provide various watches in the sales of watch enthusiasts, which has dramatically attracted us.
If anything, what I can think of is to appeal to watch enthusiasts and the general public. It is the famous Rolex watch.
Best replica Rolex submariner built into sophisticated scientific instruments. They can check with a magnifying glass in a few watches, and you can still appreciate so many perfect areas.
Whether you are looking for an hour hand and hour markers in 18K white gold (this is defamatory), or a polished stainless steel case, Rolex replica submariner will do its best to infuse such products with their pure perfection.
The Rolex replica submarine 114060 is 40 mm extensive and is the smallest watch I wear.
It must say that don't wear large ones, given full ears.
What I want to say is that it looks more like a 42mm full table. Wrist comfort is outstanding. Of course, the Rolex replica has designed for decades, and the whole new generation of submarines is the best.
Put the bracelet on your wrist, and most importantly. This sliding lock system allows you to adjust the bracelet by a few millimeters easily.
The wrist can expand naturally at different temperatures, and so on. Therefore, the ability to fine-tune the watch at any time is an additional viral function.
Why does the Rolex replica submarine offer two versions?
It is a good question. It attracted those original Rolex watches and started the life of its fans in the 1950s.
It wasn't until later that the submarine got a date window with a date in the history of Rolex submariner their Verde ceramic replica, and there was no date to produce the model.
The actual cost of the Rolex replica submarine date is about $ 1,000, and what you get is a date complication and enlarged sapphire crystal lenses to help read the time better.
Not everyone likes the magnifying glass. If you want to date but don't like zooming in, maybe it's a replica of the new Ocean Resident 4000 watch from Rolex.
Fake Rolex submariner date 116610 is a classic landmark design, I like the perfect symmetry of perfect symmetry and the more straightforward dial Rolex reference number 114060. Do you know? Like me, I don't need to adjust the date.
If the watch has sat for a while, but there are no scars, I want to set it up faster and more straightforward, because you only need to set the time (without dealing with morning/afternoon).
I don't use dates in everything-even if I'm complicated, in this case, I feel a certain degree of freedom, not on a Rolex replica.

10 Ways to Effectively Build Your Brand Online
Utilize Social Media like Twitter, Facebook, Google+, Pinterest, and YouTube
Social media has become the best way to be engaged with your customers. I have found that for small web businesses or blogs, it can be very easy to manage social media yourself. For my own web business, I consider social media my best free advertising method. It has not cost me a dime to build my Twitter following but instead just my time. I'm aware that my time is money but I feel the investment pays off with social media.
The main goal varies for each network. The thing you need to realize is that a variety of people use these social media platforms and if you are not using them, then you will miss out in terms of reach.
Be Active on YouTube
You should create your own channel and submit quality videos in the name of your business regularly. The goal here is to gather a lot of subscribers by creating and marketing videos within your niche. Once you have followers, it will become easier to go viral and your YouTube videos will practically market themselves. If you can reach a very very small percentage of people who go to YouTube on a daily basis, then it is a great way to build your brand.
If you have a blog or a website then you should link out to your YouTube profile on the front page.
Distribute a Press Release
Focus on using press releases so you can get into Google news. Also, make sure you have some type of news to report because that is the goal of a press release. The reason that this method can be so effective is because so many people read the news online and many will spread your article and help give you website traffic and a social media following.
Build an Authority
You can build an authority for your blog by becoming an expert in your niche. How to do this? It is simple. You just need to show your readers that you know what you are talking about. In other words, you need to write good quality posts for your blog that your readers can learn from. The best way to build an authority is to constantly research and stay updated in your industry so you can provide those who follow you with relevant and trending information.
Write Guest Blogs
There are blogs all over the internet that get thousands of visitors on a daily basis. These are people who go to read the first article they see and many will typically share these articles. So how is this important for you? Well, many bloggers today are accepting guest posts in order to keep up with the demands of their traffic and to help post more quality content. In return, you can post it under your business name and probably get two links back to your website. In other words, this is just like a press release but it is actually free most of the time.
Give out Free Branded Things
The best way to build your brand I believe is to give things out for free. Some ideas for free items might be trial versions of your products, one-time services, free eBooks/reports, free t-shirts/magnets, and free stickers can all help your brand. You can also say to your followers that they can have a free eBook as long as they send out a tweet or Facebook update that advertises your business.
Write for a specific audience
You can't drive targeted traffic to your blog if you're writing your blog post for a broad audience. A broad audience will not magically turn into targeted traffic. Therefore, you should write for specific audience within your niche in order to drive the kind of traffic that you need to attract. If you have several niches, then sector off your website well so that you can appeal to the masses. The main goal here is to not combine your stop smoking website with your luxury car website because they don't mesh well.
Build a strong reputation on relevant forums
Forums can help you to get in touch with the targeted audience within your niche. The trick is to establish good reputation in forums related to your niche. Then, put your blog link in your signature area. This way can effectively increase your traffic.
My tip to you is to join the top 2 forums within your niche and then post about 5-10 times per day on each. It will only take about 5 minutes usually to give people some quality feedback on a question their having. Then, if the forum gets a lot of traffic, many people will see the link you leave behind in your signature attached to your quality answer and this becomes a great free method of advertising.
Use PPC advertising
This might be a costly method to drive targeted traffic to your blog, but it might bring you the best result. So, if you have the budget to set up a good PPC campaign for your blog, you should do it. One thing I will tell you is that this step takes plenty of research and you should understand services like Google Adwords before you waste thousands of dollars. You need to advertise an opt-in page so you can effectively grab each customer. Then, you must make sure that your investment per customer is worth the return you are getting. If it is not, then continue to refine your offer and find ways to reduce costs.
Submit your post link to many social bookmarking websites
These websites can potentially help your website go viral. Social bookmarking websites such as Reddit, Digg, StumbleUpon, etc. will help you to attract quick traffic to your website's business. There are certain niches that have more success with these websites so make sure you understand where you can be effective.
The most important part of this post is to get the word out there to the masses. If you want people to be aware of your business then you need to spread the word of what you do, why you are important, and how you appeal to your target market. If you have a great problem to solve for people, then you need to do everything in your power to let them know about it.

Wendy Teaches Hebrew to Tiger Lily
and the Lost Boys of Never-Never Land
While this interesting Tanzanian sheetlet, Scott 683 (1984), appears to be delightfully pro-Israel, a closer look shows that anything even possibly suggesting Israel, Jews, or Hebrew has been carefully excised from the central stamp design. That is, the boy with the yarmulke has been cropped on the left; the southern border of Israel has been carefully cut on the top; and the Hebrew book at the right has been cut short right at the point where a Hebrew word appears.
After Tanzania gained independence in 1961, its first leader, Julius Nyerere, supported the Palestinian right to self-determination, and though Tanzania had established formal diplomatic relations with Israel in 1963, it severed them in 1973, recognized the PLO as the legitimate representative of the Palestinian people, and became the first African country to allow the PLO to open an embassy (in Dar es Salaam).
During the 10 years of its diplomatic relationship with Israel, Tanzania benefited from development assistance and investments in agriculture, infrastructure development, and security cooperation, among other areas. Nyerere's Ujamaa "villagization" program was widely understood as being modeled after the kibbutz system and his agricultural cooperative schemes were clearly adopted from moshav model. Many roads in the main city of Dar es Salaam, such as the Port Access road now renamed Mandela Expressway, were built by Israelis. The Israelis even built their own embassy there, which they had to abandon in 1973.
Relations between Tanzania and Israel were not restored until February 1995, when Nyerere was no longer in power. The majority of the other African countries that had broken ties with Israel in 1973 had reestablished them, with a big wave occurring between 1991 and 1994 as a result of the Oslo accords. Currently, Prime Minister Netanyahu is spearheading a major effort to improve relations with African countries, to woo African support in the United Nations and other international forums, and to enter into new trade deals and facilitate greater Israeli economic and technical support for African nations.
Einstein at the Kotel
Exhibited here is an exceedingly rare unissued 1979 Nicaragua stamp depicting Albert Einstein looking out at the Western Wall.
What possible motivation was there for a Central American country to design such a Judaic-themed stamp? The simple answer: money. Beginning in 1975, Nicaragua produced a large number of stamps depicting personalities of interest to foreign collectors but with no relation to Nicaragua. This Einstein stamp, part of that series, was designed but never issued without an overprint.
Receipt for a Holocaust Survivor – a Sefer Torah
The American Jewish Joint Distribution Committee (also known as "the Joint") is a Jewish relief organization founded in 1914 to provide assistance to Jews living in Eretz Yisrael under Turkish rule. Its primary mission throughout its history has been, and remains, to offer aid to needy Jewish populations around the world through a network of social and community assistance programs.
After World War II, the AJDC played an important support role in preventing the mass starvation of the remnant of European Jewry that had survived the Shoah, shipping more than 227 million pounds of food, medicine, clothing, and other supplies to Europe. Moreover, it also fed the educational and cultural needs of the displaced, providing typewriters, books, Torah scrolls, ritual articles, and holiday provisions, and AJDC funds were directed at restoring a sense of community and normalcy in the DP camps with new schools, synagogues, and cultural activities.
Exhibited here is a July 17, 1947 receipt for a sefer torah issued from the AJDC Zone Warehouse in Munich by the Religious Department, bearing the official seal of the warehouse manager and listing the destination of this holy Torah scroll, itself a Holocaust survivor, as "the Federation of Sephardic Jews."

With up to €60 bn of debt a month being bought for the next 19 months, the ECB's programme of quantitative easing (QE) is massive. But its programme suffers from three major shortcomings (see below). These shortcomings imply that the ECB's QE programme, even if it does represent a major leap, needs serious redesigning. It must ensure that printing additional money is closely linked with a European investment plan.
The ECB has allowed the genie of deflation to escape
The first shortcoming is that the ECB's decision to engage in a major QE programme comes way too late and after the facts. It is not just that the bank has allowed a continuous slide in both core as well as headline inflation, with the latter even turning negative in December 2014. The problem is also that medium (5-year) and even long-term (10-year) inflationary expectations are falling and are now around respectively 0.5% and 1% only.
By allowing these trends to materialise, the ECB is playing with fire. If employers and workers internalize low inflation and falling inflationary expectations when setting prices and wages, then we have a self-fulfilling prophecy on our hands with disinflation and, ultimately, deflation becoming entrenched. In the recent collective bargaining rounds in the Austrian and German engineering sectors, there have already been indications that this process is under way, with the employers' side using the argument of low inflation to strike very moderate wage bargains. Note that these are the strong ('surplus') countries. If wage bargaining goes that way in these economies, one can imagine the pressure on the bargaining position of workers in countries where prices are already falling and unemployment is sky-high.
"We are all monetarists now." Really?
In Milton Friedman's textbook, putting more money into the hands of economic actors prompts households and businesses to spend and invest this money, thus launching inflation or/and aggregate demand. However, instead of simply proclaiming that extra money by definition equals more spending, one should consider the concrete mechanisms through which an increase in money balances would be passed on into an increase in aggregate demand.
Here, we know that the Euro Area is very different from the US (for a more complete description and comparison, see here). In the US, QE works by pushing up the value of stocks and driving down interest rates on corporate debt. The former incites stockholders to consume more (the so -called 'wealth effect') whereas the latter makes it cheaper for business to finance new investment.
In the Euro Area however, these mechanisms are absent. There is no 'wealth effect' in the sense that households in the Euro Area do not tend to spend substantially more when their wealth increases. And businesses in Europe finance their investment mainly through the banking system and rely significantly less on direct market finance. The ECB, by pumping money into the system, will certainly boost the value of stocks and corporate debt (admittedly a major windfall gain for those that own such assets), but this will have only limited effects on aggregate spending and investment.
Become a Social Europe Member
Support independent publishing and progressive ideas by becoming a Social Europe member for less than 5 Euro per month. Your support makes all the difference!
Unfortunately, there is more. Six years of crisis have clearly shown the consequences of heterogeneous member states sharing the same currency and an identical monetary policy. The ECB's QE programme suffers from the same problem. Indeed, when the ECB and national central banks buy up sovereign debt according to the national central banks' share in the ECB's capital, €144bn of German bunds or 12.5% of outstanding German sovereign debt will be transferred to the Bundesbank and ECB balance sheets. Corresponding figures for Italy and Spain are much lower, respectively €98bn or 5% of total Italian debt and €70bn or 7.6% of Spanish sovereign debt.
In other words, the ECB's QE represents substantial support for an economy that is already on a strong footing. One can reasonably expect QE to push interest rates on long-term10 year Bunds from their present level of 0.5% towards zero.
This contrasts with the troubled members of the Euro Area where, after years of recession, economic activity remains depressed, unemployment is at record highs, outright deflation has already set in and the banking system remains constrained because of a sizeable portfolio of non-performing loans (the latter being the result of austerity and economic stagnation!). And, last but not least, total debt loads, both public and private remain huge.
This paradox, whereby the ECB's QE de facto prioritizes those member states that are in a relatively better shape, is further highlighted by the graph below. It shows that member states already experiencing deflation are at the same time saddled up with high debt loads. Given the fact that deflation increases the real burden of debt, this s is a lethal combination warranting relatively more, not less support….
QE and structural reforms: Pulling at both sides of the rope at the same time
Another shortcoming concerns whether the ECB truly understands the dynamics behind deflation.
It is indeed striking that the ECB keeps on preaching the benefits of structural reforms of labour markets, particularly that of a "radical" loosening of wage formation systems, employment protection legislation and unemployment insurance schemes. These reforms are supposed to "liberate" labour supply and boost productivity, thus getting people to spend more by raising positive expectations about their future higher incomes.
We have been here before. It is the "confidence fairy" reborn… "Confidence effects" were supposed to make fiscal austerity work. Now that this has proven not to be the case, the identical argument is used to continue with structural reforms. As if scrapping workers' rights to a decent wage and a stable job will somehow make them feel optimistic about the future!
However, if there is one major reason why deflation is amongst us, it is the policy of structural reforms that member states adopt in pursuit of an internal devaluation of wages. Simply put: If you cut wages, prices will follow sooner or later. And if the wage squeeze is kept up long enough, disinflation will eventually end up in outright deflation.
ECB policy is therefore still characterised by a significant internal contradiction. While massively printing money to try and counter the forces of deflation, the ECB is at the same time promoting reforms that will intensify deflationary pressures even more. It is as if the ECB is pulling on both sides of the same rope at the same time. If it is really serious about fighting deflation, then that should be the priority and all policies, steering the economy in the right direction: Away from deflation, away from the 'black zero'.
Transforming QE into a real "game changer"
These shortcomings are serious but can be met if the design of the ECB's programme is improved.
One could, for instance, increase the volume of purchases of debt issued by European institutions and the EIB in particular. If this measure is then complemented by a bias in EIB lending towards extra public investment programmes for those countries that need it most, then a direct link between the ECB's money printing programme and investment and job creation will be established. We can then be sure the newly printed money ends up in the real economy and in those economies that need it most.
If, on top of this, the ECB were to abandon its push for deflationary reforms of wage formation systems, then its quantum leap would stand more chances of being really successful in raising growth and inflationary expectations.

1754 - 1806 (52 years)-

Notes - Delmar Lowell's 1899 Historic Genealogy of the Lowells of America says of William Darracott, second husband of Mary Lowell, that:
* He and Mary were married 25 Dec 1783.
* He was previously married to Sarah Earle, and after the death of his second wife Mary Lowell, he married again a third time.
* He died 16 Oct 1806.
* He "came to this country about 1742. Before this, he commanded a packet, plying between Hull, England and Boston, Massachusetts. His father was Sir _____ Darracott of Biddeford, Devonshire County, England. The same coat, now used by the family, is carved over the door of the Knight Templars in Malta, which indicated nobility."
A John Darracott was in fact mayor of Bideford, Devon in 1687 -- see Alexander G. Duncan, "Bideford under the Restored Monarchy," Report and Transactions of the Devonshire Association for the Advancement of Science, Literature and Art 47:306, 1915, page 331. So there may be something to gentry origins for the Darracotts.
Also, for what it's worth, the Bunker Hill Monument Association obituary for George Darracott, son of William Darracott and Mary Lowell, says he was "of Norman-English descent, his ancestors having resided for many generations in Devonshire, England."
But the dates here seem out of kilter.
The Boston record of the Wm Darracott who died 16 Oct 1806 says he was 53 years old, thus born about 1753.
The 1894 Report of the Record Commissioners of the City of Boston, Containing Boston Births from A.D. 1700 to A.D. 1800 shows a William Darracott born in Boston 24 Apr 1754, son of William and Sarah Darracott. This seems much more likely to be the William Darracott who died in 1806.
If Mary Lowell had married the first William Darracott, and we're to believe that he came to New England around 1742 after a period of commanding a cross-Atlantic packet, then Mary Lowell would have been marrying a man roughly 30 or more years older than her. Possible, but (to our mind) less likely than marrying a man four years younger than her.
It seems to us far more likely that Mary Lowell's husband was the second William Darracott, and that the first wife named Sarah attributed to him by Delmar Lowell was in fact this William Darracott's mother. Whatever the case, it seems crystal-clear that only the older William Darracott could have been born in Devon, as the birth of the younger one is shown by multiple records to have happened in Boston.

In today's world we often take things for granted, we don't anticipate the inevitable happening to us, therefore, fail to prepare like we should, despite knowing that things "happen" in this digital era.
From failing to back up our cell phone contacts to not auto saving a document, consequently we've all been victim to idiotic situations that we have created and could have prevented.
Now what about circumstances that we're not even consciously aware of happening? Something that everyone is at risk of is having our identities hijacked, but can we be proactive with preventative measures?
According to a recent article published by wired.com a staggering observation was stated that "Russia's hackers were far and away the fastest, expanding their access on average just 18 minutes and 49 seconds after gaining their initial foothold".
That's less time than what the working class get for their lunch breaks, and yet these hackers have silently gained your info and wait patiently for the right opportunity to utilize, which could be 1 week, 6 months or a year later after the personal information has been acquired.
While every online user needs to be alert, online merchants need to be more observant of their activity in effort to protect themselves as well as their customers information, which can often be obtained via the merchants usage.
Here are our general recommendations in effort to avoid being hacked
These preventative measures don't guarantee protection, but every effort to avoid being "Hacker Jacked" is a good effort and we at MobiusPay simply want to remind you to be proactive and protect yourself.

A detailed explanation about what is wrong with Shadeston
I know this topic has been beaten to death lately, but something needs to be said. I speak from experience. First and foremost, some uppity psychopaths actually claim that our country's security, prestige, and financial interests are best served by war and the ever-present threat of war. This is the kind of muddled thinking that Shadeston is encouraging with his artifices. Even worse, all those who raise their voice against this brainwashing campaign are denounced as covinous, imperious freaks.
Although chimpanzees can be convinced to wear clothing, understand commands, and even ride bicycles (if well paid for their services in bananas), it would be virtually impossible to convince Shadeston that foolish franions like him belong in prison where they can be kept away from the general public. That represents yet more evidence—as if we needed more—that Shadeston's shills warrant that "the cure for evil is more evil." First off, that's a lousy sentence. If they had written instead that Shadeston's love of Dadaism and fogyism gives a new, perverse dimension to the old adage, De gustibus non est disputandum, then that quote would have had more validity. As it stands, Shadeston promises his minions that as soon as he's finished oppressing, segregating, and punishing others, they'll all become rich beyond their wildest dreams. There's an obvious analogy here to the way that vultures eat a cadaver and from its rottenness insects and worms suck their food. The point is that our battle with Shadeston is a battle between spiritualism and cynicism, between tradition and subversion, between the defenders of Western civilization and its enemies. With the battle lines drawn as such, it is abundantly clear that Shadeston's protests are merely a sideshow exhibit in the circus of Trotskyism. Every time I strike that note, which I guess I do a lot, I hear from people calling me loathsome or fastidious. Here's my answer: Someone has been giving Shadeston's brain a very thorough washing, and now Shadeston is trying to do the same to us.
And if you think that those who disagree with Shadeston should be cast into the outer darkness, should be shunned, should starve, then you aren't thinking very clearly. He secretly has been scheming to destroy our moral fiber. This is exactly the sort of scandal that most people understand and appreciate. It's what opens people's eyes to the reality that Shadeston's maledicent smear tactics are a locomotive of elitism. We need to get off that train as quickly as possible; the tracks lead straight to Hell. Personally, I personally would much rather be on a train in which the passengers recognize that on a television program last night I heard one of this country's top scientists conclude that, "Shadeston's logorrheic, cynical apologues impact heavily on our security and survival." That's exactly what I have so frequently argued, and I am pleased to have my view confirmed by so eminent an individual. On rare occasions, in order to preserve their liberties, sometimes people must arrest and detain Shadeston's nemeses indefinitely without charge, without trial, and without access to legal counsel. Shadeston does that even when his liberties aren't being threatened.
Rowdyism is an inherently oppressive ideology, as evidenced by the way that most people react to Shadeston's obtrusive escapades as they would to having a pile of steaming pig manure dumped on their doorstep. Even when they can cope, they resent having to do so. Speaking of resentment, Shadeston wants to scrap the notion of national sovereignty. Who does he think he is? I mean, if he feels ridiculed by all the attention my letters are bringing him, then that's just too darn bad. Shadeston's arrogance has brought this upon himself. The very genesis of Shadeston's pouty maneuvers is in Comstockism. And it seems to me to be a neat bit of historic justice that he will eventually himself be destroyed by Comstockism.
So remember kids, if you want to slow scientific progress, all you have to do is agree to let Shadeston show a clear lack of respect not just for those brave souls who fought and died for what they believed in but also for you, the readers of this letter. I don't suppose he realizes which dialectic principle he's violating by maintaining that he is the one who will lead us to our great shining future. Therefore, I shall take it upon myself to explain. Shadeston just keeps on saying, "I don't give a [expletive deleted] about you. I just want to turn the world's most civilized societies into pestholes of death, disease, and horror." Many people respond to his reckless, grotesque scribblings in much the same way that they respond to television dramas. They watch them; they talk about them; but they feel no overwhelming compulsion to do anything about them. That's why I insist we provide light, information, and knowledge about his depraved, malapert generalizations.
Shadeston's quips are like an enormous larrikinism-spewing machine. We must begin dismantling that structure. We must put a monkey wrench in its gears. And we must preserve the peace because Shadeston has vowed that any day now he'll treat people like the most patronizing smear merchants I've ever seen. This is hardly news; Shadeston has been vowing that for months with the regularity of a metronome. What is news is that he swears that his mistakes are always someone else's fault. Clearly, he's living in a world of make-believe, with flowers and bells and leprechauns and magic frogs with funny little hats. Back in the real world, I frequently talk about how Shadeston goes ga-ga for any type of presentism you can think of. I would drop the subject except that I urge you to pay very close attention to his shallow, sex-crazed soliloquies. Once you do, I am in no doubt that you will see what the rest of us clearly can, that Shadeston argues that human rights can best be protected by suspending them altogether. This is an entertaining statement, perhaps, except that when taken at face value it presages a likely attempt by Shadeston to weaken our mental and moral fiber.
People sometimes ask me why I seem incapable of saying anything nice about Shadeston. I'd like to—really, I would. The problem is, I can't think of anything nice to say. I guess that's not surprising when you consider that Shadeston likes to talk about how he's morally obligated to create an atmosphere that may temporarily energize or exhilarate but which, at the same time, will pose the gravest of human threats. The words sound pretty until you read between the lines and see that Shadeston is secretly saying that he intends to exploit the public's short attention span in order to prime the pump of priggism. He is not the only one who needs to reassess his assumptions. Think about loopy, fractious insurrectionists. They too should realize that of all of his exaggerations and incorrect comparisons, one in particular stands out: "The kids on the playground are happy to surrender to the school bully." I don't know where he came up with this, but his statement is dead wrong.
What we have been imparting to Shadeston—or what he has been eliciting from us—is a half-submerged, barely intended logic, contaminated by wishes and tendencies we prefer not to acknowledge. His words defy common sense. I could write pages on the subject, but the following should suffice. Shadeston is a bitter liar. Let's list some of Shadeston's more temerarious lies: First, he claims that his statements are a breath of fresh air amid our modern culture's toxic cloud of chaos. Second, he insists that we can trust him not to see to it that all patriotic endeavors are directed down blind alleys where they end only in frustration and discouragement. And third, he wants us to believe that the few of us who complain regularly about his manifestos are simply spoiling the party. I presented that list to get you to see that it doesn't really matter why Shadeston wants to provide cover for a mean-spirited agenda. Whether it's due to a misplaced faith in alarmism, bribes paid to Shadeston by raving scroungers, or nagging from some of the stinking, pathological lummoxes in his plunderbund, the fact remains that that's what Shadeston wants. What I want, in contrast, is to notify you that many members of his posse believe that I'm some sort of cully who can be duped into believing that "the norm" shouldn't have to worry about how the exceptions feel. Even worse, almost all of his lapdogs believe that our elected officials should be available for purchase by special-interest groups. (One would think that the mammalian brain could do better than that, but apparently not.) My point is that it's sad how Shadeston has been lionizing uncivilized gits. The silver lining around this cloud is that when you're hurt by his rantings, you learn. You put things in perspective. You pull your energies together. You change. You go forward. You observe that Shadeston has been marginalizing dissident voices. If there were any semblance of decency left in his faction that ought to be an affront to it. Sadly, that's a big "if"; we all know that Shadeston exhibits an air of superiority. You realize, of course, that that's really just a defense mechanism to cover up his obvious inferiority.
Shadeston is the secret player behind the present, saturnine political scene. He must be brought out from behind the curtain before it's too late, before his myrmidons permit callow yahoos to rise to positions of leadership and authority. If Shadeston can't stand the heat, he should get out of the kitchen.
Shadeston does not appeal to most people as being the most endearing or public-minded of citizens. Maybe his image would improve somewhat if he stopped trying to flush all my hopes and dreams down the toilet. In light of what I just stated, it's hard to avoid the conclusion that I've heard him say that the rule of law should give way to the rule of brutality and bribery. Was that just a slip of the lip, or is Shadeston secretly trying to assuage the hungers of his votaries with servings of fresh scapegoats? The answer is rather depressing, but I'll tell you anyway. The answer begins with the observation that if Shadeston can't be reasoned out of his prejudices, he must be laughed out of them. If Shadeston can't be argued out of his selfishness, he must be shamed out of it. Why is he really so prodigal? Is it because I am galled that he's so intent on harming others or even instilling the fear of harm? Or because from the fog and mist of his ballyhoos rises the leering grimace of savagism? As you no doubt realize, that's a particularly timely question. In fact, just half an hour ago I heard someone express the opinion that it's Shadeston's deep-seated belief that all any child needs is a big dose of television every day. Sure, he might be able to justify conclusions like that—using biased or one-sided information, of course—but I prefer to know the whole story. In this case, the whole story is that I recently received quite a bit of flak from the local commentariat for reporting that Shadeston is a bacillus in the otiose gut of diabolism. The criticism I received is surprising because I was merely pointing out what is generally accepted, that one of the bewildering paradoxes of our time is the extent to which Shadeston is willing to rot out the foundations of our religious, moral, and political values, especially given that he himself would be affected by such actions. In closing, Shadeston sincerely dropped a clanger by admitting that his taradiddles are based on biased statistics and faulty logic, which, in turn, invalidate the conclusions Shadeston draws from them.

In 2018, Apple computers achieved the 9.6% of global desktop and laptop market share and 12.7% in the United States. Apple's laptops, MacBook Air and MacBook Pro, are very decent working machine for college students, designers, bloggers, YouTubers and people in all industries.
Apple computers are liable computers in terms of both hardware durability and OS stability. However, nothing lasts forever. Sometimes, Mac computer fails to turn on or refuses to boot up to the desktop.
When you encounter the situation, the first helper you might think of is the local Apple store. Tell me how long you have ever waiting in line for service. Therefore, before you get into that all-time busy place, why not solve the problem on your own first?
Reason One: Your Mac is disconnected from power
Your press the power button but the computer has no response at all? If you are using a laptop, the MacBook might have run out of battery. If you are using a desktop, check if the computer's power cable and outlet are working.
Reason Two: You Mac's monitor is disconnected
This usually happens to Apple desktops with a system unit which you need to hook the monitor to. If you press the power button and the light is on, but the monitor is black after you hit "enter" key, the monitor could be disconnected somehow. Go ahead to check the cable connection between the two hardware.
Reason Three: You can force restart the Mac
Typically we shut down or restart the computer by clicking on the Apple logo at the left up corner. However, in a Mac not turned on situation, you cannot even see the Apple logo nor the cursor. You can force restart the Mac by holding down Command key, Control key and power button (or Touch ID button) together for at least 10 seconds until the frozen machine reboots.
Reason Four: You can recover data from the crashed Mac
If you have valuable files on the failed Mac, the staff in Apple store will charge for data recovery. Restoring data from a Mac that is not even booting up to the desktop by yourself, is it possible? The answer is positive unless the Mac can boot into Recovery Mode. A Mac data recovery software like iBoysoft Data Recovery for Mac can be launched through its server by running commands in Terminal and restore files from the unbootable Mac. And the whole process is not as complicated as you expect at all. Even though you are not a computer savvy, you could get your data back using software.
Follow the steps below to boot the Mac into Recovery Mode:
1. Press the power button to completely turn off the Mac.
2. Press the power button to turn on the Mac and press down Command + Option + R together immediately before the Mac starts up.
3. Release the keys until you see a spinning globe and wait to see the macOS Utilities (or OS X Utilities) Window.
Reason Five: You can factory reset the Mac and reinstall macOS
If your Mac is stuck in the loading bar or can't boot pass the Apple logo, the Mac operating system may be undergoing some errors. To be honest, even though you take the computer to an Apple store, the experts there would reset the Mac to its factory settings for you. You can do those operations without leaving your home and standing in line for hours! Follow the steps above to start the Mac into Recovery Mode and make sure the Mac is connected to Wi-Fi. Select "Reinstall macOS" (or "Reinstall OS X" in OS X Utilities window) and follow the wizard. It needs to be reminded that all data in the startup disk will be deleted, so remember to recover files first to avoid permanent data loss.
A crashing Mac could be the worst scenario that you wouldn't never want to come across. It may mean the permanent data loss or the replacement of hardware or even the computer itself. However, there are still things you could do. Instead of waiting in an Apple store, take time to get hands on the Mac not booting up problems on your own first.

We&Co Has Turned Gratitude Into the New Currency

Visit Atlanta and you'll see a new kind of currency exchange: digital gratitude.
We&Co, founded by Jared Malan, is an iPhone app launched last year that allows users to show gratitude to the service professionals they cross on a daily basis. Until its launch, the opportunity for broadcasting your appreciation to specific individuals - a favorite barista, a welcoming bartender, a trusted repairman - was limited, at best, to the one-on-one monetary exchange of a tip, a preconceived and overly-orchestrated process.
What We&Co does, instead, is instigate a more emotional, social value exchange. Publicly and openly expressing your prefered service professionals on a platform accessible to both management and customers reinforces the experience of being a regular - a devout, reliable customer. In turn, it credits the individual that attracts you as a regular in the first place, placing an emphasis on experience over location, regardless of the type of business.
"Recently, I moved to Atlanta. It was the first time I didn't have a community built around me. I was finding that I was having positive interactions, whether it was a server or barista," Malan explained. "I was finding these relationships do matter." He turned to Foursquare's API for location services, then created a system for adding employee profiles by location. Launch the app, and you're able to see these businesses and their employees. From there, it's a simple of matter of clicking the "Thank" button, then adding a comment. From our Soho office, for example, you can thank a server at Soho Park or the manager of Caffe Falai.
Just as Foursquare is seeking to monetize, in part, by establishing relationships with businesses who reward customers for checking in, We&Co creates a two-sided dynamic in which both customers and servers are able to reap the benefits of positive reviews. For customers, showing your gratitude to, say, a bartender, can serve as a statement of your commitment to his or her bar; in turn, he or she can provide perks, like free drinks or dishes. "Just last week, I went to the bank where I usually go. He was surprised that I was back from SXSW already," Malan reflected. "I needed to cut some decks for business, and he cut them for free, and he ordered them for free as well. So he saved me about $80."
Simultaneously, through this exchange, management is able to see the specific, social reason for your return - in Malan's case, the banker - and is therefore able to reward him or her for the positive promotion provided by the app. "What we're able to do is help a business understand who are there best service professionals and reward them. We also allow them to reach out to customers," Malan explained. "We don't want to be a deals site, but we do want there to be value given out to the service professionals."
Though available internationally - professionals have been thanked in all 50 states and more than 50 countries - Malan and his team are currently focused on establishing a solid base in Atlanta, where We&Co is becoming a commonplace app. They're also forming relationships with major brands. Ultimately, Malan said, We&Co could serve as a source for something much larger than one-on-one exchanges - a database of information about the individuals who can propel whole businesses, a major, untouched data network.
"We're the LinkedIn for server pros," Malan explained. "There's not a lot of data in the service industry - who the great bartender is and who makes the best cup of coffee. We want to change that."

Free May Download and a Winner
Because of Jon's job, I often travel without him. I have flown alone with the girls before, but this trip to NH and back was my first time driving alone with them for more than a three or four hour drive. Let me just say it was quite the adventure! We made it, though! Whew! We are getting settled back in and last night I was able to get just about all of the photos from Lola's party edited and sized. I will get the text written tonight so I can post it tomorrow. Seeing how today is May 1st, though, I thought I would at least make sure to post May's free download.

Rihanna recently rocked it at the 2017 Met Gala and Salvatore Ferragamo showed off the trend at its SS17 show in Milan - that's enough to convince us that colour blocking is hot to trot this season! So how exactly do we recreate this style ourselves? MUA, Beauty Blogger and Founder of Blush + Blow, Bridget O'Keeffe, has given us the lowdown.
Rihanna made a statement at the 2017 Met Gala
"Colour blocking is when you use a punchy dose of one or two strong and bright coloured eye shadows over the majority of your lid as well as underneath," she told Cover Media. "If you are going to colour block with contrasting shades work each colour onto the top and bottom lash lines respectively. Use a white liner in your water line to make the contrast pop.
It may sound daunting but it's a lot of fun to get on board, especially for a big night out on the town. A punchy, 'bright' shade needn't be one you feel uncomfortable with – identify a colour which you feel complements your skin or eye colour and you can get away with a thick line rather than overall lid coverage if that's more your thing. As for underneath keep it close to your lashline and thick enough to make a statement and stand out, as you don't want your lid taking over with all the attention.
You can't go pastel or pale though as Bridget insists "anything loud" works best, adding: "I personally love bright red or pink!" Urban Decay's Electric Pressed Pigment Palette certainly isn't for the faint-hearted and boasts nine bold shades along with a silver shadow, perfect to break up the contrasting colours. Makeup Revolution Salvation Palette Colour Chaos is just as bright so be willing to truly push the boat out.
There's good news for those who don't wear a lot of eye make-up though as it doesn't just have to be your peepers in on the look. "You can even use the colour on your cheeks and lips," Bridget suggested.
So get your hands on some vivid lippies and blushers if this is the approach you're going for! L'Oreal Infallible Lip Paint comes in six bright options, such as the eye-popping purple Wuthering, or try Maybelline Color Sensational Lipstick in a range of choices. As for your cheeks, give Freedom Pro Blush Palette Pink And Baked or e.l.f. Blush Palette a whirl as each have several options.

"The whole is greater than the sum of its parts." Aristotle
Howdy! Reaching out on your therapeutic journey is a hard step to take. It calls for deep self-inspection and a vulnerability in sharing life's challenges with another. I am fully committed to helping you feel capable, confident and supported in exploring how to make changes in your life.
I hold the relationship between client and therapist to be the major force of change in therapy, and I seek to foster a strong relationship with each of my clients based on authenticity, mutual respect and acceptance. We will create collaborative goals to suit your wants and needs, maintaining a relationship grounded in validation and connectedness. Your wellbeing is my chief concern, and I will meet you wherever you are at in life, bringing along my compassion, curiosity and warmth.
Life is challenging, full of constant ups, downs and outright barrel-rolls. I fully believe all individuals have the ability to maximize their life experiences, and I seek to create an accommodating space wherein we can walk this path together. Perhaps something is wearing you down, keeping you out of your stride. Constant thought may invade your mind, habits may seem unbreakable, but relief can be found, fostered and can flourish. Maybe you just don't feel comfortable in your own skin. By exploring one's surrounding thoughts and feelings, expressed and unexpressed, personal growth and freedom are possible.
On a personal note, I spend much of my free time with my family and small friend group. When I'm looking to wind down I often look to video games, Dungeons and Dragons, philosophical media or a good ole fashion gut-buster comedy.
If you feel a potential connection and would like to explore ways to heal and grow I can be reached at 512/201-4501, ext. 146.

Grey Tree Red Heart Boutique Original by Kealey Farmer
The Brand New Summer Collection by the Award Winning Kealey Farmer. Kealey's new summer collection comprises of 5 new pieces and a very special piece of artwork that has been created by the artist alongside the Ian's Chain Charity. The team at "Ian's Chain" work tirelessly within suicide prevention, and also help wherever they can with families that have suffered great loss due to suicide..
"I'll paint the whole world silver and gold if I could" was the determined childhood promise that led to a lifetime love affair with art for Kealey Farmer.
In 2003, having finally decided now was the time to make good of that innocent vow at her grandmother's house, the Derbyshire born and bred artist chose to step away from her successful project management career to commit to her true vocation and go professional. She was now a full-time artist.
This move has been proven to have been the right one as the Northants based mixed media artist is now known unequivocally as one of the most impressive, innovative and collectable contemporary British artists.
With over 25 years painting, drawing and personal study experience as a predominantly self-taught artist, Kealey's versatility and authenticity are major contributors to her success. Having begun her career indulging in strong abstract pieces, dripping with colour and energy – her now signature move towards 3D elements began in 2006. The handmade elements that include glass, diamond dust, Swarovski crystals and finished by the artist herself in resin have become a much-loved fixture within her work.
Touching upon romance, love, relationships and family and possessing an ability to hand produce confident, absorbing, captivating artwork that is almost brash in its delectability; Kealey Farmer signed with Wishbone Publishing Ltd in 2016.
