The Best Books of 2017: Reprints!/
Best Books of 2017 – Reprints!
Prior to looking at all the year's new offerings, I like to look at all the year's reprints, to navigate again the weird and often intensely personal vagaries that bring so many reprint volumes to market. It's true that sometimes a publisher can simply be fulfilling a contract or keeping one eye on the main chance, but equally often a new edition of some older work hints at a personal passion that's managed to talk itself through who knows how many editorial meetings and onto the printed page. 2017 was a very healthy year for such reprints. These were the best of them:
10. The New Annotated Frankenstein by Mary Shelley (WW Norton) – Our first book is no stranger to being reprinted! Mary Shelley's iconic horror story must surely be one of the most-reprinted novels of modern times, and here the folks at WW Norton give it the deluxe annotated treatment under the expert handling of editor Leslie Klinger. Annotated editions usually find a way to annoy me, but this one was a delight from start to finish.
9. The World of William Joyce (Atheneum Books for Young Readers) – The pure gift the folks at Atheneum have concocted here is a lovely collection of uniform hardcover editions of the inimitable children's picture books created by the legendary William Joyce, books including such classics as Santa Calls and Dinosaur Bob and His Adventures with the Family Lazardo. The beauty of his artwork and the whimsy of his storytelling are on full display in this beautiful set.
8. Culture Fever by Stephen Akey (Orchises) – It's one of the rarest and sweetest pleasure of being an editor: seeing a talented writer you worked with early go on to a much-deserved larger audience, and here at the end of the life of Open Letters Monthly, in 2017 I got to experience that pleasure one more time – this time in the case of freelancer Stephen Akey, whose meditations on prose and poetry are a stunning combination of the personal and the oracular. Some of the essays collected in Culture Fever originally appeared on OLM, and they re-read even better than they read originally.
7. Collected Fiction by Mary McCarthy (Library of America) – The Library of America is never very far from my Best Reprints list every year, and the reason is simple: for every boxed piece of Kurt Vonnegut yak-crap they produce, they also produce a glittering gem like this set, collecting the lean, acerbic novels of Mary McCarthy in a format so much more durable than the pulpy drugstore paperbacks where I first encountered them. And once again, the re-readings were thrilling.
6. The Diaries of John Quincy Adams (Library of America) – A second showing this time around for the Library of America, here presenting readers with a beautiful boxed set of the enormous diary kept by John Quincy Adams for most of this life. Like many of the reprints on the list this year, this was a production that needed to happen, an enormous improvement over any other version of the work currently in existence. These diaries are the most remarkable document ever written by a US President, and now they finally have the edition they've always deserved.
5. The Collected Essays of Elizabeth Hardwick (NYRB Classics) – The essays of Elizabeth Hardwick have been the secret, precious currency of the literary world for decades, and now all those dog-eared copies of the original collection-volumes can stand down, since The New York Review of Books has produced a backpack-handy paperback for readers to dog-ear all over again. I'm already on my second copy, but it's a bright joy to see her in bookstores again.
4. Prince Valiant Volumes 1-3 Gift Set by Hal Foster (Fantagraphics) – The sheer visual opulence of these Fantagraphics reprint volumes of Hal Foster's initial run on the comic strip that made his reputation is, oddly enough, as much a call-back as it is an improvement; yes, the folks at Fantagraphics have done a stunning job of remastering Foster's original colors and putting the whole thing on luminous paper stock … but the spread-it-out-and-lose-yourself size of these reprints was a part of the original Sunday comics experience, now as thoroughly gone from the world as is the medieval world of Val himself. Like so many of the entries on this list, this is more than simply a nice reprint – it's a full-fledged restoration.
3. Thalia by Larry McMurtry (Liveright) – This hefty, formidable volume reprints Horseman, Pass By, Leaving Cheyenne, and The Last Picture Show, all set in the fictional Texas small town of Thalia, and all featuring McMurtry's brilliance as shifting the register of his prose, from bleak, forensic character study to sweeping adventure narrative to – in four bravura scenes scattered throughout these three books – perfectly-executed slapstick comedy. A volume like this not only makes it easy for new readers to discover McMurtry – it also makes it easy for older readers to see that he's worth re-discovering.
2. Powers of Darkness by Bram Stoker & Valdimar Asmundsson (Overlook Press) – In every year, at least a couple of reprints will be not only excellent but downright bizarre, and in 2017 that prize was claimed early and firmly by this painstakingly reconstructed English-language translation of the original Icelandic translation of Bram Stoker's classic novel. When Valdimar Asmundsson translated Dracula for Icelandic readers, he took increasingly hallucinatory liberties with the original text, producing an alien and – heresy! – dazzlingly entertaining alternate version of the book, here lovingly presented by the folks at Overlook Press.
1. The Duke's Children by Anthony Trollope (Everyman's Library) – This new Everyman's Library edition of the last of Trollope's Palliser novels likewise enters this list – and heads it – because it's invaluably more than simply a nice-looking reprint of the original. When it came time in 1880 for Trollope to publish in book form the serial he'd run the year before, he cut great chunks of text from the manuscript, and this Everyman's edition for the first time restores those chunks, giving readers The Duke's Children as Trollope actually wrote it, over a century after the fact. Like so many other books on this reprints list, this one represents a genuine benchmark – as well as a great reading experience.

Rated 1 out of 5 by cgbflynn from Damaged! This is the sixth of this series I have ordered. This particular print came packaged even better than the first five. However there was severe and very noticeable damage to the frame. I do not believe this damage occurred during shipping. I can only conclude that the item was sent to me knowing it was damaged.

Arlington Commits Planning Money for Trolley Line on Columbia Pike
Arlington County officials are continuing their push to build a Columbia Pike streetcar line between Pentagon City and the Skyline area of Fairfax County. Backers hope the five-mile line will aid commuters, prompt redevelopment and seed a much larger Northern Virginia streetcar network.
At a meeting Saturday, the County Board voted to spend $3 million on environmental studies and designs for the project. Officials will look toward the federal government to help fund the effort, said board member Chris Zimmerman. The project is estimated to cost $160 million, $138 million for the Arlington portion and about $22 million for Fairfax, officials said.
"It looked like it was going to be a lot more state funds before," Zimmerman said. But now, in the early days of the Obama administration, "the federal environment is looking far more favorable," he said.

While reading the January edition of "Le Monde diplomatiqueâ€, I stumbled upon two articles illustrating a new position for the traditional media in relationship with the Internet. The first one, "Menaces sur l'information†("A threat against the informationâ€) written by Ignacio Ramonet (online version is here) points out the new difficulties for the traditional media in France (Liberation is a given example). Although the masses are migrating online and the "free†newspapers became no.1 on the market, they raise a credibility mark upon the new media and the new evolutions. This article also presents the official position for "Le Monde diplomatique†– they're not afraid of the new tendencies because the educated public will still look up quality articles and verified stories and even will pay for this.
The second article is more complex and presents another side of the Internet (the article is available only in the printed edition). The original title "Les bénéficiaires inattendus du miracle Internet†("The unexpected beneficiaries of the internet miracleâ€) – by Eric Klinenberg is an article presenting the manipulators, the cheats, the impostors and the swindlers as the core winners in this game. Examples like the 602p law presented in the last US election campaign or the usage of DHMO (actually H20) made the politicians and the journalists to pay more attention on the Internet.
Meanwhile, the traditional media has the advantage of credibility transfer from the printed edition to the online edition, meaning that people will still look up their daily news on their trusted websites.
The second idea presented by Eric Klinenberg is regarding the social role of the Internet. According to the specialists at the University of California, in the United States, over 21% of the general population never used the Internet in 2005 and 33% don't have a home Internet connection. The most important fact is that less that 50% of the connected people use the full multimedia features of their broadband connections and they are limited in their surfing habits to the websites indicating a major TV station or a major newspaper. The blogging and the independent media is in fact a concept that is not applicable for the masses.
The social role of the Internet is also pointed out by the Gothamist blog example – educated people who have access to the Internet can discuss online and pressure the local authorities in order to influence the decision making. On the other hand, the poor communities are not making it easy for the "governing over the Internet†policies and are underprivileged.
The final conclusion of the article states that new media will not be as free as we think as a small number of giant-companies will control the market and will favor only a part of the population.

Many people jump to blaming their battery when their car, boat, or another machine won't start. But a quick checking of the entire system for corroded or cracked cables, bad connections, or rusty parts, can often reveal issues with the electrical system beyond a bum battery. Making new battery cables isn't difficult, however, and you won't need complex machinery to do it.
Part 1
Grabbing Supplies
1Lift the hood and check the battery, as well as all connected lines and cables, for rust, corrosion or bad connections. Before making new cables, check which ones actually need to be replaced. Remove any snapped, chipping, weak, crusty, or otherwise bad-looking cables so you know what needs to be replaced.
2Ensure you have the same gauges of terminals, terminal lugs, and cables. On the cable should be a number with a slash in it, like "2 / 0," followed by the letters "AWG." The terminals should have this slashed number too. This number is the gauge size. The terminal may not, however, say "AWG." Make sure you purchase both a positive and negative terminal.
- If your cables don't match the battery, you can also get cable clamp adjusters, which tighten around any cable to ensure it fits well.
- Non-adjustable terminals or "universal" terminals should only be used as a temporary fix.[1]
3Pick up the appropriate cable for your machine, in the gauge size determined above. Different cables need to be used for different machinery. While there are a lot of options out there, the general strategy is easy to remember:
- Dry Machines (Cars, tractors, etc.) need to use untreated copper wire.
- Wet machines (boats, jet skis, etc.) need to use electroplated ("tinned") strands to prevent rusting.[2]
4Purchase a non-acidic or active flux core roll of solder wire. Rosin core solder wire is the safest to use on your battery connections. Acidic connections or active core wires can cause issues and corrode the battery when exposed to electricity.
5Grab some rosin flux paste of fluid for the connections, again ignoring acid or active flux pastes. Like the solder wire, this paste is too corrosive to be useful with copper or tinned wired.[3]
- Some companies actually sell terminals pre-loaded with flux and solder.
6Alternatively, use the bad cables to purchase replacement parts from your local auto shop or hardware store. Bring in the bad battery cables to ensure you get the right replacements for your car or boat if you don't know what to get. If in doubt, talk to a store clerk for help replacing parts. Bring in your car's make, model, and year to help them understand your specific motor. You'll need:
- Two cable, brass or tinned
- Two terminal lugnuts
- Two terminals
- Solder
- Rosin paste or fluid
- Shrinkable sheathing, cut in four 6" parts.
Part 2
Preparing the Cables
1Use a thick pair of cable cutters to smoothly clip the cables. Don't try saw at the cable with a knife of hacksaw, as this makes for jagged, uneven ends of cable that are hard to work with. Use a heavy-duty set of cutters to get right through the cable in one short, smooth motion.[4]
2Cut away the final 1" or so of rubber housing to expose the cable. Cut lightly here, trying your best to only cut the rubber housing and not the strands of cable underneath. You can use your terminal lugs (the piece that attached to the battery) to estimate how much you should cut away. Simply line it up with the cable and note how long the hole is, then cut away enough rubber so that the actual metal cable fits in snugly.
- Don't worry if you cut too much away -- you will be re-sheathing the cables later.
3Using your fingers, lightly pull off any loose or unwound strands from the cables before using. Removing these stray bits will slow down corrosion and greatly increase the life of your cable.[5]
4Add two pieces of 4-5" shrink tubing to each cable, shuffling it out of the way until later. It is harder to get this sheathing on after the terminals are attached, so slide it onto the wire now and roll it out of the way, towards the center of the cable. Each one of these sheathings will cover the exposed metal at the ends of your cable when done.[6]
Part 3
Attaching the Terminal Lugs
1Liberally apply flux paste to the inside of the terminals and the exposed cables. This paste is heated up and creates a strong electrical connections between the two bits. Apply the paste liberally with a cotton swab.
2Slide the terminal lug onto the expose cable end, pushing it as far on as you can. Some of the flux will squeeze out, but this is okay. Get the lug snugly onto the exposed cable for now.[7]
3Crimp the terminal lug onto the cable using a flat nail punch or a crimper. If you have a crimping machine, now is the time to use it. Otherwise, get a flat nail punch or angle iron, and a hammer. Place the punch in the center of the nut, then hammer hard into it to crimp the terminal into the cabling. Flip the cable and repeat on the other side.
4Using a flame or other high-heat source (such as from a butane torch), heat the lug until the rosin flux is boiling. You want to get the entire piece nice and hot. You can stand a butane torch up, turn it on, and rotate the cable in front of the flame so the whole thing is evenly heated. Heat until the rosin starts to bubble out of the terminal lug.
- This preheats everything to make soldering easier in the next step.
5Still applying heat, solder around the connection between cable and terminal lug. Use your non-acidic, non-reactive solder wire to solder the point where the terminal lug ends and the exposed cable begins. You can do this right after you have the rosin boiling. When done, let it cool for 1-2 minutes before proceeding.
- Make sure you have enough heat to liquefy the solder.
6Slide the shrink tubing back up to cover the expose metal, then use the heat source to shrink it around the connection. All that needs to be exposed is the flat terminal lug, which connects to the battery. The rest of the connection should be covered and snugly fit with the sheathing to prevent corrosion.
Part 4
Attaching the Terminals
1Clamp the terminals in a vice, open side up. The entire terminal is going to get very hot, and you can't attach it and crimp it down ahead of time like the terminal lugs. Clamp it down so it won't move as you insert the hot cable and solder.
2Liberally swab the inside of the terminal and the outside of the cable with rosin flux. The "ingredients" needed to attach the terminals are the exact same as those used for the lugs, though the process is a bit different. Use a cotton swab to coat all parts of the terminal and wire that will connect.
- If you bought pre-soldered and pre-rosined terminals, you should skip this step.
3Using your torch, heat the terminal so that the rosin flux is boiling. Make sure you do this in a well-ventilated area. You want big, quick bubbles forming to know you have it boiling.[8]
4Preheat the end of the cable for 12-15 seconds, then push it into the terminal. If both the cable and the terminal are hot, the connection is going to be much faster and more secure.
5Solder the connection between terminal and wire. Just like the terminal lug, solder the edge of the terminal to the expose wire beneath it. Even if you have pre-soldered connections, this isn't a terrible idea for added security.
6Use some wire cutters to clean up any exposed strands of wiring. If some of the strands of wire came loose when inserting the cable into the terminal, strip them off before moving on.[9]
7Slide the sheathing to cover exposed metal, then heat it to shrink it on. These sheathings will greatly increase the usable life of your battery cables.[10]

- Clean cuts and clean soldering takes time, but it will make a better, longer-lasting cable. Good cuts will help the connections fit better with less solder, rosin, and effort.
- You will need extreme heat to make these connections. Always work in a safe, clean area with gloves and goggles.

The court nullified the governorship primaries held by Governor Okorocha's faction of APC in the state.
An Imo state high court has recognised Senator Hope Uzodinma as the governorship candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in the state ahead of the 2019 elections.
The court upheld the plea of Imo state deputy governor, Eze Madumere, and nullified the governorship primaries held by governor Rochas Okorocha's faction of APC in the state.
In his judgment, Justice Kemakolam Ojiako, confirmed that the primary election held on October 1 that produced Uzodinma as the winner was credible and relevant.
The judge also upheld an order by an Abuja high court restraining the party from conducting a fresh primary election.
Madumere had sought the court to nullify the primary election held by the governor's faction of APC in the state.
Following the court ruling Madumere said, "With today's (yesterday) judgment, the foundation upon which Mr. Nwosu is defiantly parading himself as the governorship candidate of APC, Imo State, has been quashed. This has laid to rest, all Okorocha and son-in-law's claims over who the standard bearer of the party is."
The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) had previously published Uzodinma's name as the party's canndidate following a decision by a court to strike out a suit filed Okorocha's faction.
Okorocha's son-in-law, Uche Nwosu, who has repeatedly declared himself as the authentic APC governorship candidate in Imo state, had filed a court order restraining INEC from accepting any other name from the APC for next year's election.

Between grandparents, aunts, uncles, and friends, we've heard "So what do the kids want from Santa this year?" quite a few times. Worrying that we will have 26 more Matchbox cars to trip over, 17 DVDs and books (well, actually there's no limit on the number of books that can come into this house!), 6 long-haired dolls, another Disney stuffed animal or three, or 4 more massive firetrucks to add to our growing collection of toddler-emergency-vehicles, I have politely asked each person, "Please don't get anything big, and here's an idea or two of something small the kids may like."
[By the way, I have certainly gone the "Oh, you don't need to get them ANYTHING!" route...but telling this to Nana or a godparent just doesn't fly, I have learned! I know the kids will get presents from friends and family, so I'm just hoping to limit the toy-explosion in our home. I am doing the "smaller-gifts-and-less-of-them-please" requests partly out of necessity and practicality (our house isn't very big). Of course, I personally would love to splurge and buy them 35 toys each -- seriously! But, we are keeping a tighter budget this year. Christmas was always about lots of presents under the tree for me -- from $2 hairbrushes, and hand-crocheted blankets to the latest jeans and Barbies. Opening gifts on Christmas day at my house growing up was like a big "thanks" to our loved ones. I do like that tradition, personally, and I think my husband and I try to replicate it. However, the sheer size of gifts -- and hopefully the fact that someone else will be buying many of them -- is a little different for us since we started our own family.]
For sure, I indulged a LOT for each of my kids' first Christmases -- buying too many clothes and a hoard of toys that they could probably play with for a few years. I think that's normal for many folks; we all want to spoil our kids sometimes, right? But this year, with two toddlers with constantly changing likes and dislikes, I personally don't want our house swamped with a ton more toys. I can't imagine what it's like for parents of older kids (we are not in the "Mom, can you buy me that toy I saw on the commercial?" yet...thankfully! Good luck to all of you who are!)
All this chatter about holiday gift-giving makes me think "HOW MUCH IS TOO MUCH?" and "WHAT DO KIDS REALLY WANT FOR CHRISTMAS" (or whatever holiday your family celebrates). I've noticed it's hard to be in the middle of going overboard with toys and gifts and being practical and asking for gift cards and baby supplies; among my mom friends, it seems parents are taking one of those two routes.
Local mom Lisa told me: "We have a 5 week old and we aren't getting her anything. We got her a stocking and an ornament but no real gifts. We wanted to set people straight from the start, practical stuff only. We live in a tiny condo and are trying to avoid bulky plastic toy build up (jumpers, exersaucers, ball pits, etc.) so if people ask we give practical answers. We also don't want her growing up expecting a huge amount of gifts at every holiday." Lisa also added cloth diapers to a list she gave her mother in law -- genius!
I would like to say I feel a little guilty this year because my husband and I are spending maybe $40 MAX on each kid for the holidays...but then I think I should be pretty proud that I'm not over-doing the gift-giving (and not breaking the bank)! I know my kids love playing with educational toys at school and museums, so throughout the year I've paid attention to toys at these places which I know they don't have at home. I asked my sister to buy them Magnatiles, which are extremely sturdy building tiles that lets them create castles and pretend Hotwheels car garages. I've asked godparents to buy cheap DVDs that we can use in the car on road trips. I have picked out $20 toys for each kid for grandparents (though I know they will throw in some extras -- some big, some small, I'm sure). I also know we will finally be getting an iPad as a gift from one family member. However, true to my thifty-self, I have researched refurbished older-models and insisted that this be the only gift for the whole family, and not just for one of the kids. (I also requested a year's membership to one of the NJ children's museums, which they love -- and I know "Santa" is sending that from Florida. Hee.)
'How much is too much' is essentially a personal choice. If you can afford a pony for your 10 year old -- fantastic! If you're going the dollar store route for Santa's elves, that's awesome! If you're asking your child to donate one of his gifts to a needy child (something we plan on doing), that's great, too. It doesn't have to be "in moderation" -- gift giving, in my opinion, should be whatever works for your family. If you had amazing memories of ripping into dozens of presents under the tree growing up -- then you should by all means replicate that for your children if you want to.
My friend Natasha, who just had her third child, told me she hasn't even started shopping yet -- but she plans to get quite a few things. "I'm normally overboard with the gifts because Christmas was always a big deal growing up and we always got a lot from my parents, aunties, uncles, grands, etc. My oldest child has only asked for four things -- no big ticket items though." She says she will probably get her newborn a "little toy"; even though he's a few weeks old and can't play with real toys yet, she says she has to get him something because "although he has no clue, I'll know and that matters to me." As for her toddler, I can totally see some girlie stuff under the tree!
I know some mom friends who are definitely buying their kids the coolest, top of the line tech gadgets. I know other parents who are buying a ton of clothes. Others I know are spending hundreds of dollars on gifts for their kids. Some people would argue spending time with mom, dad, or grandparents is worth more than any present...and I wouldn't disagree! Holiday toy-spending is so subjective -- don't feel any pressure that you "must" get this or that!
When you have a child with special needs, says local mom Alyssa, who has a two-year-old with Autism, it's a time to give (and ask for) therapy-related toys and equipment. "This year we went a little bigger but that is only because we got him stuff he uses in his therapies so we can work on it at home too (with his Autism he doesn't play with much toys anyway)."
Another friend, Colleen, says: "This year for my daughter's first Christmas we have to do something since my son is three; so, she'll be getting diapers and formula. We have a family tradition of everyone getting socks and underwear, so that's a given! My son's big gift this year is the Octopod (mainly because we didn't end up needing it as a bribe gift when we had the baby and already have it waiting in the wings). We don't want to go overboard in the early years and set a crazy expectation."
Mother of three Jessica agrees, saying "There is never a mountain of toys under our tree...This year through shopping with co-ops we were able to do more than 4-5 gifts (which always includes winter boots). I don't buy junk that's going to be thrown away or little cutesy Christmas things. They get limited toys along with winter clothes, new sheets, and books. We try to do a bigger gift and then a few smaller ones. If there are 4 or 40 gifts under the tree they're just excited that Santa thought of them!"
Other moms use the holidays as a time to stock up on toys for later in the year -- or next year (totally something I do, especially for clothes I always ask for bigger sizes). Local parent Tricia told me, "We have no expectations for our little one. Since she arrived six months ago, family and friends have been very generous with gifts and quality hand me down toys. Some are choosing to buy her 'first' toys that she won't use until later. For example, my mother already bought my daughter her first American Girl doll. As for the older kids in the family, we try for 'experience gifts' rather than toys... like tickets to a Broadway show." Fabulous idea!
If you think Christmas is too commercialized, and you'd rather buy them stuff that they need when they need it, then that's a common-sense solution, too. To all the Santa's workshop helpers out there, enjoy the holiday, spend what you can spend, and may your kids enjoy their gifts and time with the family.

I agree with Beth -- giving experiences for the kids is a great gift! Plus, I like to buy tickets for events or overnights a few months after Christmas so that the joy of the gift lasts longer :)

Businesses cater to growing food-stamp market
The record increase in food stamps given to poor and hungry Americans has created a fast-growing consumer segment. Businesses are trying to cash in on it by offering hours and goods aimed at those consumers.
Last year, the federal Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) distributed $71.8 billion in food aid, according to a U.S. Department of Agriculture report. That aid went to the 44.7 million Americans living at or near the poverty line. That's up from 28.2 million people in fiscal 2008. The average SNAP household has gross income of $711 per month, or $8,532 a year, and receives $272 in monthly food assistance benefits. About 40 percent of SNAP beneficiaries live in a household where someone is employed, and about half are children, according to the USDA.
Roughly 85 percent of all food stamps were spent at large grocery stores and supercenters in 2010. In an effort to capture more of this market, stores are responding to these customers' needs. As Bloomberg reports,
[The] 1,280-store Save-A-Lot chain opens some supermarkets at midnight, when government benefits are loaded onto food-stamp cards, and promotes higher-priced bulk items early in the month. The chain switches to smaller sizes later as money dwindles and customers make fill-in purchases.
Wal-Mart (WMT) also makes adjustments to staffing and product supply based on when benefits are loaded on to cards.
Save-A-Lot's parent Supervalu (SVU) says food stamps account for about 40 percent of sales at the chain, an increase of 26 percent over two years ago.
SNAP benefits can be used to buy things like breads, cereals, fruits, vegetables, meats and dairy products. (They cannot be used for things like tobacco, alcohol and pet food.) In these tough economic times grocery stores are chasing food stamp users even though the items they buy have lower margins than other foods. Unfortunately, in a time of higher employment and stagnant wages, this is likely to be a substantial customer segment for a while to come.

My father is borrowing money for installment which includes some amount of interest which will be taken by them before lending the money. After that my father used to pay the money daily for a period of 3 months after paying the entire money he used to take another amount and do pay it In the same manner. I told him it is haram but he is not leaving this and he is negligent about this. I ll be coming and staying with my parents for some days or month and then I ll return to my in laws home. During the stay I have to eat with what my father is giving. Is it permissible for me to stay there?
And also I know my father is not having enough money to manage the family and the expenses for my two brothers education. And he uses to drink alcohol. I am worrying about my family, and I am fearing that if I give money to him surely he will use some of it to buy those drinks. In this case shall I give the zakah money for the gold I posses to my father rather giving it to others or else I should give some gold to my father to sell and ask him to take the money?
May Allah reward you with goodness for the kind read and may He bless you.
Sheikh Adel As-Sayyed:
If you can afford to be independent in your spending and not use your father money then do it, but if you depend on him then you can eat from his money. As for Zakah, do not give the money to your father, you can pay the expenses of your brothers directly.

What exactly is happening?
The owner of CDSG has decided to close the school on very short notice for personal reasons. However, we now have a special opportunity as a community to transition CDSG to a nonprofit organization run by an elected board that much better represents the values of the parents and the community. But we must act NOW.
Why it's so important for the Guanacaste community?
CDSG is the only United States accredited school in Guanacaste. This accreditation, coming from the Middle States Association of Colleges and Schools (MSA), makes it possible for EVERY student that receives a diploma to be considered for any university in North America and the world. If our community loses this valuable asset, Guanacaste becomes a much less attractive destination for families to take up residence, thus reducing the value of our entire community, negatively impacting property values and community businesses.
Some schools in Guanacaste have an IB program. What's the difference?
An International Baccalaureate is a degree that, despite being available from many schools, is only actually earned by an average of 3% of those student bodies. This means that 97% do not graduate with any world-wide accepted accreditation, even if the school is an IB accredited school.
Does the MSA accreditation transfer to the nonprofit entity?
Is there already a nonprofit setup?
Not yet, but it's in the works. It's a process that will take a few more months to complete. In the meantime, there is a standard corporate entity with a bank account for collecting the needed funds.
Is this the same structure as La Paz?
No. They are run by a board appointed by the founding members of the school, and communicate with a parent advisory board that can make suggestions, but not decisions. Our board will be elected solely from an association of qualified members of the CDSG community.
Will the curriculum change?
The curriculum will continue to be based on the high standards of the State of Virginia, which is the standard used by International and Embassy based schools throughout the world.
What about the Spanish programs?
With a newly elected board structure, we will now be empowered to make the changes we collectively seek.
Is there a new tuition structure?
Yes! A transition team has reviewed the operating costs and is implementing an updated tuition schedule for 2013-14 that is attached to this mailing. Changes include:
- Siblings from prek-8th grade will be accepted at a significant discount.
- We are offering a one time school transfer discount for any students from prek-8th grade that are currently enrolled in an another Guanacaste private school program. We will guarantee this tuition rate for two academic years. Additionally, any matriculation fees paid to another school for the 2013-14 school year will be waived. This offer subject to limited availability.
Will there be Scholarships or Financial Aid available?
Yes. Our intent is to initially target 20 scholarships for select and exceptional, lower income, Costa Rican students. Additionally, a limited amount of financial aid is available to qualifying families.
Do we have enough money raised to make the transition?
At this time, we do not. We have a projected shortfall of $500,000 over the academic year. The good news is we already have about $200,000 pledged from a core of dedicated and concerned parents that have been working hard to make this transition happen. With a combination of increased enrollment, community donations and private financing, we can overcome the remaining shortfall, but we have to act fast. That's why we need you to pledge your support today, whether it be via matriculation, a donation or a loan for financial support. Another way to contribute is an option for families to pay for future years in advance. We can be creative, but we need your support at whatever level you are able.
What is the deadline?
Due to unexpected demands from the current owner, time is very short. We need a pledged commitment in the form of new enrollment, donations or unsecured loans totaling an additional $250,000 by this Friday, May 10 for the transition team to sign a contract that formally accepts the costs related to running the school.
What if we are not successful?
The owner intends to liquidate the school and send a letter warning the staff this week.
I'm in and want to support!
Please either respond to this email or call one of the numbers below with your pledged intent to matriculate, donate or lend financial support.
Who should I call to discuss this further?
Any of the following look forward to speaking with you!

Ratings and Reviews
I usually use this app every day multiple times a day with little to no problems. Today when I opened it it didn't display any of my subscriptions or videos and instead said authentication error or something along those lines. I couldn't remember what email I used for viewing/subscribing but when I figured it out and I tried to log back in, the same account that I had used every day with multiple, probably more than 50 subscriptions had only four or five subscriptions on the account. I don't understand what happened or why this happened, because it was doing it before i updated it. i figured it needed to be updated when i saw "authentication error" so i updated it. it was still doing it after. Hopefully this is fixable but for now I guess I'll have to go find every channel that I was subscribed to before now. Not to mention all of my comments and liked videos and my watch later folder are all gone. it's like i have to start over.
Every time I try to do something with the video I'm watching, I end up on a new video. I try to double tap to rewind, I'm on the previous video in the playlist. OK, no problem, I'll just hit the next button right? Nope, because the next button is not going to take you back to the video you were just watching, it's going to take you to another video that they want you to watch. So now you have to go find the video you were watching to keep watching it. One top of that, if you make the wrong move, you're now swiping back-and-forth between videos like tinder matches. I'm sure it was made to be convenient but it's more annoying than anything because 99% of the time I don't know what video is next on the playlist and I probably don't want to watch it. Why would you make it like this? It really ruins the user experience. You're basically forcing me to watch videos that I don't want to watch and I'm not going to watch. Seems like they only do this to get you to watch more advertisements. It only benefits them. Because every time I accidentally flip a video, once I get back to where I was, now I'm watching an advertisement. And I refuse to pay them that ridiculous price for you to print. I've decided to just start using other websites. There's too many other options for them to do this.
i love it! one annoying problem...
i love this app, i use it almost every day. the one issue i have is that (it didn't used to be this way, but it's been doing it and won't go away) when i have a video and want to make it full screen, it doesn't matter if i click the full screen button or tilt my phone, it glitches and only shows me a corner of the video. it cuts the screen into fourths basically and the top left one is the bottom of the video and the other pieces are just gray or something. it's SUPER frustrating and won't go away. a few months ago i didn't have this problem. then a while back i had a similar issue coming out of full screen. it would cut off half of my screen when i minimized the video by tilting my phone upwards and i would have to either close out of the app, or swipe down from my video to fix it. i love the content, accessibility, recommended, etc. but these two things affect like everything i watch. it may just be me but it's been so annoying!

The Earned Income Tax Credit in New Jersey: Beware of the Cliff
By Jon Shure
New Jersey today is in a position very similar to that of early 1999, in terms of advancing policies to help the working poor. Now, as then, a proposal has been put forward that would reward work and ease the tax burden on people and families whose best efforts can take them only to or slightly beyond the poverty line.
Last year the policy involved increasing the amount of money a family could earn before having to pay state income tax. This year it is the Earned Income Tax Credit. Either one of them would be a step in the right direction. Used in tandem they can be a powerful engine to help drive working poor families farther.
But the similarities between this year and last-between the income tax threshold and the EITC-are not just that they both are solid programs that help people make ends meet. In its original form, the income tax threshold proposal fell short. Indeed, it would still have required some families earning below the federal poverty level to pay state income tax. However the version eventually passed by the Legislature and signed into law-a $20,000 threshold after the phase-in period-put New Jersey into the forefront of states when it comes to reducing the tax burden on families who have a difficult time affording life's bare necessities. In the end, the consensus was that going further was advisable-and possible.
And so it is with the Earned Income Tax Credit. Unquestionably, an EITC in the form proposed by Governor Whitman in her January budget address would help many hardworking New Jersey families. It would be better than what we have now, which is a federal Earned Income Tax Credit program but none at the state level. According to the Washington-based Center on Budget and Policy Priorities, "several recent studies indicate that the EITC has positive effects in inducing more single parents to go to work, reducing welfare receipt, and moderating the growing income gaps between rich and poor."
But an analysis of the proposed New Jersey EITC program, centering on the federal EITC and those enacted by other states, shows that under the current proposal New Jersey again would fall short of the standard being set elsewhere. The most serious shortcomings of the current EITC proposal lie in its eligibility criteria and the resulting level of benefits.

Data-Driven Economy: Challenges and Opportunities
17 June 2019 · 12:30 pm - 05:00 pm
Intereconomics and the German Economic Institute conference in Berlin
The transformation of data into an independent asset poses new challenges for companies, regulators and policymakers. We examine the status-quo of data-driven business models and the requirements shaping the process. On the business side, new tools are needed to utilise data as an asset with regard to its quantity and diversity. Regulators and policymakers will have to refine an often inefficient legal and regulatory framework to guide this transformation towards the general benefit.
Economic Convergence or Divergence in the EU?
09 October 2018
8th Annual Intereconomics / CEPS Conference
European integration has always been associated with the aspiration of upwards economic convergence. However, though accession of fast-growing member states in 2004 and 2007 gave positive convergence a boost, divergences, particularly of the EU's southern members, have appeared over the past decade. Moreover, there are mounting divergence pressures at a regional level. The conference will examine the process of EU economic convergence in its various forms and consider its driving factors.
Book Presentations: Universal Basic Income
07 June 2017 · 06:00 pm - 08:00 pm
The idea of a universal basic income (UBI) has gained momentum in recent years. Proponents assert that a UBI will dramatically simplify and improve upon the current welfare state model. While the idea of a UBI is intriguing, real-world implementation is anything but basic. No serious answers have been found to the question of how to finance such a system, and economists are also concerned about the negative effects of a UBI on a person's willingness to work. The topic was recently explored in the current Forum in Intereconomics: Universal Basic Income: The Promise vs The Practicalities.
To discuss this important topic further, Wirtschaftsdienst and Intereconomics present two newly published works, by two of the biggest names in the field of universal basic income: Thomas Straubhaar and Philippe Van Parijs. The two authors will present their main arguments, and a discussion will follow on the practicalities of universal basic income, led by Gerhard Bosch. The book presentations and subsequent discussion will be held in English.
A Fiscal Stabilisation Function for the Eurozone
20 April 2017 · 09:00 am - 05:00 pm
Annual Intereconomics/CEPS conference in Brussels.
The 7th annual Intereconomics/CEPS conference will explore the benefits that could be gained by granting the eurozone a fiscal stabilisation function, for example through a European unemployment benefits scheme. Top economists such as Clemens Fuest, Iain Begg, Paul De Grauwe and Frank Vandenbroucke will be joined by representatives of the ECB, European Parliament and US Labor Department to debate the implications of such a move.
Studies and conclusions will be published end of May in the coming issue of Intereconomics.
Inefficient Inequality: The Economic Costs of Gender Inequality in Europe
03 November 2016 · 09:00 am - 04:00 pm
Annual Intereconomics/CEPS conference in Brussels.
Much attention in research is given to the existence and measurement of gender inequality, but relatively little attention is given to the costs that result from the presence of inequality. At this conference researchers, policy-makers, and business representatives will discuss the costs and inefficiencies that result from gender inequality. What are potential solutions? Which policies? At what level?
Join us and put your view forward.
Studies and conclusions will then be published in a coming issue of Intereconomics.
New Growth for Europe – On Investment, Crisis Management and Growth Potential
10 October 2016 · 09:30 am - 08:00 pm
The joint Intereconomics/Wirtschaftsdienst anniversary conference will seek to identify new sources for economic growth in Europe. What investments can be made now to foster future growth? What is the appropriate role for the state? Have the measures taken to combat the economic crisis opened new opportunities for European growth, or will they merely lead to further stagnation? How can Europe best exploit its economic potential? Following a keynote address by Tito Boeri, the conference will feature three sessions focusing on investments, post-crisis growth and growth potential. Separate sessions will be held simultaneously in English and German. The conference will conclude with a panel discussion (in English) on the future of European growth policies, which will be followed by an evening reception.
Reception of Hamburg Senate for Intereconomics/Wirtschaftsdienst
10 May 2016 · 05:00 pm - 07:00 pm
On the occasion of the anniversaries of the journals Wirtschaftsdienst and Interconomics, the Senate of the Free and Hanseatic City of Hamburg hosted a reception in the City Hall on 10 May 2016. Many of the journals' long-term companions, former chief-editors, advisory board members, authors and other guests celebrated with the editorial team in this special event.
TTIP: Political and Economic Rationale and Implications?
10 November 2015 · 09:00 am
Lucian Cernat, Johannes Kleis, Hiddo Houben, Thea Lee, Jürgen Matthes, Federica Mustilli, René van Sloten
The Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership will reduce tariffs and lower regulatory hurdles that currently impair trade between the EU and the US. However, TTIP has been controversial from the outset. Non-governmental organisations are concerned about lowered health and environmental standards, unions fear a further weakening of labour conditions, and economists debate whether or not there will actually be any noticeable impact on employment and GDP growth.
Contributions by the speakers at the 2015 Intereconomics conference were published in an Intereconomics Forum about TTIP presenting a balanced overview of both the prospective benefits as well as the possible drawbacks to the potentially monumental trade agreement, in Intereconomics Volume 50, November/December 2015, Number 6.
Book Launch with Massimo D'Alema: It's Not Just About Euro
12 January 2015 · 06:00 pm
On 12 January 2015, 6 p.m. Massimo D'Alema will present his book "It's Not Just About Euro" at the Leibniz Information Centre for Economics (ZBW) in Hamburg. His new book proposes a different Europe. It develops a concrete proposal for Europe to finally move beyond austerity to a more democratic and inclusive Union, able to recover its role on the international stage. This is a passionate exhortation for progressives to address the crucial decisions that lie ahead.
Labour Mobility in the EU: Dynamics, Patterns and Policies
24 April 2014 · 09:00 am
Jackie Morin, Carlos Vargas-Silva, Pawel Kaczmarczyk, Timo Baas, Mikkel Barslund, Béla Galgóczi
The continued economic crisis has become a major test for the labour markets of individual member states. Labour mobility within the European Union has the potential to help to reduce labour market pressures and ease economic imbalances. However, a long-term loss of working age population can be detrimental to sending countries. This conference explores mobility patterns within the European Union and analyses the labour market and welfare effects of labour mobility via case studies of the UK, Poland, Germany and Spain. It also examines a number of its aspects that have important political and institutional relevance for the European Union and its future.
Contributions by the speakers at the 2014 Intereconomics conference were published in an Intereconomics Forum discussing labour mobility in the EU, in Intereconomics Volume 49, May/June 2014, Number 3.
Inequality in the EU
11 October 2013 · 09:00 am
Maurizio Franzini, Tim Callan, Gerhard Bosch, István Tóth, Laura Hospido, Ive Marx, Michiel Berrevoets
As economic inequality in Europe has continued to rise, it has become the subject of increasing academic attention. What are the drivers of inequality? How does it affect intergenerational economic and social mobility? At what point does inequality become a drag on economic growth or a threat to social order? What economic policy tools are available to reduce inequality? This conference addresses these and other aspects of this complex and disturbing trend. Case studies of Ireland, Germany and Spain also highlight the impact of economic inequality on individual member states.
Contributions by the speakers at the 2013 Intereconomics conference were published in an Intereconomics Forum discussing the topic of inequality in the EU, in Intereconomics Volume 48, November/December 2013, Number 6.
The Welfare State after the Great Recession
06 December 2012 · 10:00 am
Anton Hemerijck, Peter Taylor-Gooby, Philippe Pochet, Torben M. Andersen, Raymond Maes, Thomas Leoni
The economic crisis has given rise to significant challenges to the welfare state. Given that welfare expenses account for a large proportion of all state spending in the member countries of the European Union, reducing government spending means cutting welfare measures. Yet social protection, in particular unemployment insurance benefits and minimum income support, has significantly softened the impact of the crisis for millions of individuals. The global recession calls into question the financial viability of current programmes, and the crisis is being used by some as an opportunity to roll back the welfare state permanently. The present Forum discusses challenges to and opportunities for the welfare state after the crisis.
Contributions by the speakers at the 2012 Intereconomics conference were published in an Intereconomics Forum discussing the challenges to and opportunities for the welfare state after the crisis, in Intereconomics Volume 47, July/August 2012, Number 4.

Ramesh, Apurva (2012) MAGAZINE COVER: AN ARTISTIC EXPRESSION AND A METHOD TO COMMUNICATE WITH THE READERS. Masters thesis, Christ University.
Restricted to Registered users only
The dissertation aims at going deeper than what meets the eyes, in terms of design and creativity with the help of semiotic analysis. The researcher conducted semiotic analysis of eight issues of Bloomberg Businessweek and Wired magazines cover pages, in an attempt to decode and deconstruct the nuances of the cover page. Stylistically all the cover pages considered for the semiotic analysis are covers that have several connotations and denotations. These aspects are generally neglected by the readers and there has been a constant need to decipher the underlying meaning. A lot of creative thought that goes into the creation of these cover pages as it involves a combined effort of the editorial and the design team with best of creative minds coming together. Here the attempt by the researcher is too look into that aspect of the cover which goes beyond the obvious.

After a three week break following his return to the Masters, Tiger Woods is back on the course this weekend at the Wells Fargo Championship.
The 14-time major champion shot even par on Thursday and 2-over on Friday to barely make the cut for the weekend.
Woods last played in the Wells Fargo Championship in 2012. He has played the tournament six times, winning in 2007. He had missed the cut in his last two appearances – in 2010 and 2012.
Woods tees off at 9:40 a.m. ET alongside Brooks Koepka for the third consecutive day. Follow his round with our hole-by-hole tracker throughout the day:
Final thoughts
This is the Tiger Woods we expect to see. The only thing that separated today's round of 3-under from yesterday's round of 2-over was a few putts dropped. For a third straight day he was accurate off the tee. His misses were in fairway bunkers or the first cut rough, not in someone's backyard or behind a tree. Tiger took advantage of the conditions today and looked comfortable doing so. We'll see if he can make some magic and charge up the leaderboard again tomorrow.
Hole 18 - Par 4
Grip it. Rip it. Twirl it. Tiger smokes his 3-wood off the tee right down the middle of the fairway. His approach lands safely on the green, but he's got some length to this birdie putt. His putt was cruising to the hole and it just missed the cup. The return par putt has about 8-feet. Deflating way to end as the par putt just misses. Bogey. Tiger shoots a 3-under 68, dropping to 1-under for the tournament.
Hole 17 - Par 3
Tiger's tee shot finds the green, leaving about 30-feet for birdie. Nothing to really see here, two-putt par. 4-under through 17 (2-under for the tournament).
Hole 16 - Par 4
Tiger tried to get creative and cut the dogleg but instead finds the first cut rough to the right. His approach lands safely on the green, though a difficult pin placement means this is no easy look at another birdie. Call it wrong speed or bad line, but the putt didn't really have a chance. He'll tap-in for par. 4-under thru 16 (2-under for the tournament).
Leaderboard update: Peter Uihlein shot a 9-under 62 to take a share of the lead early on Saturday before Peter Malnati, yesterday's leader at 7-under, could tee off. Aaron Wise and Jason Day are T3 at 6-under, followed by Paul Casey, Charl Schwartzel and Phil Mickelson T5 at 5-under (Mickelson shot a 64 early on Saturday).
Hole 15 - Par 4
Great drive. Approach almost makes the green in two. Useful chip. Three birdies in a row. 4-under thru 15 (2-under for the tournament).
Hole 14 - Par 4
Eagle chance! Tiger ripped a 3-wood to the green, but it's an 80-plus foot putt. The putt JUST misses, leaving a tap-in birdie. 3-under through 14 (1 under for the tournament).
Hole 13 - Par 3
Dialed. In. Tiger sticks his shot just a few feet from the hole and follows up a beautiful tee shot with a made birdie putt. Back to even par for the tournament, 2-under through 13.
Hole No. 12: Par 4
For the first time today, Tiger's hit back-to-back fairways off the tee. His approach lands safely on the green, about 13 feet past the hole. The birdie putt misses and Tiger has to settle with par. 1-under through 12 (1 over for the tournament).
Hole 11 - Par 4
Tiger's 3-woods off the tee all week have been great, this one was no different. From the fairway his approach shot misses his target, leaving a lengthy two-putt for par. At least he avoided a plastic bag this time! 1-under through 11 (1 over for the tournament).
Hole 10 - Par 5
So this happened. Tiger's punishment for missing his tee shot right? His ball landed in a plastic bag. Really! He takes his recovery and hits his shot into the green-side bunker. He gets out with a look at birdie but misses, settling for par. 1-under through 10 (1 over for the tournament).
Hole 9 - Par 4
Another drive skates through the fairway, but instead of missing left this one goes right. Tiger's approach misses the green short and right, finding a bunker. Not a great effort to get out, and after missing the par putt he drops a stroke with bogey. 1-under thru nine (1 over for the tournament).
Hole 8 - Par 4
Tiger's tee shot goes right down the middle of the fairway and up near the green. His wedge from the short grass is less than 10-feet from the pin. Back-to-back birdies it is for Tiger! 2-under through eight (Even par for the tournament).
Hole 7 - Par 5
Not a great shot off the tee. Tiger goes way left with the drive and is forced to hit a recovery shot to the fairway. His wedge from there is a pin-seeker, nestling close to the hole. It's another birdie for Tiger, who drops to 1-under on the round (1-over for the tournament).
Hole 6 - Par 3
Once again, Tiger misses left off the tee. His pitch is quite useful, setting up a tap-in par. Even through six (2-over for the tournament)
Hole 5 - Par 4
Woo! Tiger finds his first fairway of the day, and it gets better. His approach shot set up a good look at birdie, and he converted to drop to even par on the round (2-over for the tournament).
Hole 4 - Par 3
Tiger's tee shot hits the green, but he's about 40-feet away. His birdie putt had ab it too much pace, but he taps in for par. 1-over through four (3-over for the tournament)
Hole 3 - Par 4
Another missed fairway to the left for Tiger off the tee. His irons have been hot all week, and this shot from the trees finds the green for a good look at birdie. The putt misses, and Tiger settles for par. 1-over through three (3-over for the tournament).
Hole 2 - Par 4
Tiger rips a stinger off the tee but finds the rough to the left of the fairway. Another miss to the left on his approach set up an up-and-down for par, but the putt misses right, and Tiger taps in for bogey. He's now 1-over through two holes (3-over for the tournament).
Hole 1 - Par 4
Tiger's opening drive hit the fairway but found the bunker on the left side. His approach out of the sand finds the green, setting up a two-putt par. Even after one (2-over for the tournament).

At the beginning of the week I thought I would really clean and tidy my studio and snap a picture to show the possibilities of my creative space. Anyway, new car negotiations, doctor appointment for a torn meniscus, field trip with my oldest and my week evaporated.
However, an unexpected possibility for a chance to create even more this week happened.
I was buying some of Jeanette Blix's de-stash items and Jeanette was going to punch out some washers for me.
What a fantastic surprise when Jeanette brought over her disc cutter for me to borrow.
Thanks so much Jeanette. Jeanette and Cindy Wimmer will be opening the registration for ArtBliss soon.
There will be a lot of possibilities with the creative line up of classes at ArtBliss.
I will be busy this week learning to use the disc cutter and sketching out designs that I want to punch out of the various metal sheets in my studio.
I hope everyone had a great week, thanks so much for stopping by. Please visit Sally at the Studio Sublime to see what everyone else saw as possibilities this week.

Now, for any theists reading this, I hope you're not offended.
But some of these miracle stories? They're hilarious (especially if you read them in a redneck accent, like we did). These people are just looking for any old sign of God!
To quote: "i prayed to GOD to fiixed my fone and went to sleep i woke up and my fone was fixed praise my MIGHTY GOD"
People, what I present here is a GEN-U-IYNE act of God.
As you can tell, I'm quite the stereotypical atheist cynic. But I'm interested to see what you all think! If you've ever experienced a miracle, or know of one, comment it below! Do you believe in miracles? Why?
Oh and there's still a few more weeks to enter my competition! I've got a GREAT prize in mind, so check it out!

Finance – Loans
The world's entire economy revolves around loans from financial institutions. We have loans to pay off our student debt. Loans to finance our house and the car parked in the garage. We raise venture capital in the form of loans to invest in our companies. Even countries have loans to finance their different operations. You see, once you understand that loans are taken by the poorest poor and the richest rich, you develop a curious mind towards learning more about loans and their role in society.
Loans are usually a lump of money that you borrow over an agreed period of time with the expectations of you paying it back either all at once or over a set number of months. More often than not, loans come with different interest rates which is the "price" of taking a loan. That rate is very much dependent on your personal financial history. The interest rate is therefore set after determining your ability to pay the loan back. This determination is based on your income, credit history, debt and a couple of other factors that paint the big picture for the financial institutions.
As you can imagine there are different types of loans to choose from, but there are two, in particular, that stand out from the crowd. Primarily, Open-Ended loans are probably the most common loans as they can be borrowed multiple times. Credit cards or lines of credit are usually the most common type of Open-Ended loans that people take as it is very accessible and requires almost no effort to take advantage of it. As you can expect, however, there is a limit to how much money you can borrow in order for the bank to safeguard its capital in case you fail to repay the loan. But if you abide by the rules and manage to pay back the loan in time, that limit increases significantly.
The second loan alternative is a Closed-Ended loan which, in contrast to the first option, offers a one-time loan that cannot be borrowed several times once it's been repaid. Simply put, its a loan that you overtime pay off with no credit available. If you, however, decide to borrow more money, you would have to apply for a new loan and go through the application intensive process once again to approve you of a new loan. As you can imagine loans like these include your common mortgage loans, student loans, and even car loans. There are however loans I encourage you to avoid.
Certain types of loans are structured in a way to take advantage of you and your eagerness to take borrow money. A Payday loan is a perfect example of a predatory trap as it is a very short-term loan that is borrowed using your next income or paycheck as a guarantee. Meaning if you can't pay off the loan, you certainly won't receive your next paycheck. These types of loans also usually have an incredibly high annual percentage rate and can sometimes be impossible to get out of. My advice to you? Speak to your local bank or financial institution before taking a loan in order to make sure you make the right financial choice and not get stuck in an endless circle of debt.
