ZacI'm attending Vanderbilt University for my degree in human and organizational development. This major allows me to work to solve problems within communities and organizations. I like to work in the non-profit sector in the future. I've always enjoyed learning, and I value education as a key to the success of the individual. My tutoring experience includes helping middle school students in various subjects as a volunteer for an after school program. I was tutored myself in ACT test preparation, and it was pivotal in helping me get into Vanderbilt. I enjoy helping students develop test taking strategies and learn how to excel at the test. In addition to ACT test preparation, I enjoy tutoring students in English and math. I have a flexible tutoring style and adjust to the needs and learning style of each student. I understand how difficult it is to learn new things, but I help students build confidence in their abilities and help them get organized for success. In my free time, I enjoy watching Curb Your Enthusiasm and other TV shows, playing the guitar, running, and reading.

WilliamI have always loved learning about science and math. I want to be a tutor because it gives me a chance to share my passion for those subjects with students. I can help with subjects such as algebra, calculus, chemistry, biology, and more, no matter what level. I am currently studying chemical engineering at Vanderbilt University. I always did well in science and math, which is probably because I enjoyed them so much. My passions paid off; I scored a 790 on the math SAT and SAT II. Additionally, I took five AP tests when I was in high school. I earned fives in statistics, computer science, chemistry, biology, and calculus BS. I plan on pursuing moreeducation because I was lucky enough to receive a scholarship from my university. It was awarded me because of my excellent academic performance in engineering. As your tutor, I will motivate you to set clear goals, and then I will help you achieve them by broadening your understanding. When I am not tutoring, I enjoy rock climbing, traveling, and learning Mandarin.

ConnorI'm Connor, but everybody calls me Ken. I'm currently studying education, and I'm looking forward to becoming a teacher at the high school level. I've always loved to help people out when they struggled with something, but I was something in school or in life, so teaching was a natural choice. I bring positivity and support as a tutor, and I try to make things light and fun. I also encourage students to look at mistakes as opportunities to address needs as opposed to failures. I can assist students with elementary and middle school math, chemistry, physics, physical science, Newtonian mechanics, life sciences, and other related subjects in math and science. When I free time, I like to golf, rock climb, listen to music, and write.

Hello and Happy Instagram Thursday!
This week's images make it pretty clear Jack Frost has left the building. Subtle hues of winter have been replaced with images of nature's Technicolor, bursting into every corner of every frame. However, I must put in a plug for sunshine photography's underdog, black and white. I've seen many a monochrome summer scene that seemed greener to me than the greenest of green summer lawns. Just sayin. So look below and enjoy them all, because they are all beautiful and good for your eyes too.
Congrats to the featured photogs and have a great rest of the week!

text: I woke with a really heavy heart and a pit in my stomach, as I am confident every other human I love and identify with did. But then I met with an incredible, inspiring woman this morning, who is on a similar journey of embracing the wholeness of her femininity, and who is sharing her story and her findings with the world. There was no talk of this election but somehow I left confident and inspired, knowing that real change is happening right here and now, as I start with myself, as I connect with other like minded women, and sculpt my daughters little souls. It starts with practicing all the things I preach, to them, with them, every single day. Like every mother, I want so much for my daughters. I want them to have the ability to connect and empathize with others. I want them to see humanity's differences as something to celebrate and learn from, rather than something to be afraid of. I want them to have a deep respect for this earth, to take good care of it, to partner with it, to enjoy it, to give back to it. I want them to love being a woman. To know their cycles are a gift and something to celebrate, a guide, giving them deeper insight and wisdom, never a burden. I want them to love and adore every part of their body, especially those parts that are strangely taboo and left unspoken of. Yes, my girls already know their FULL anatomy at age 2 and 4, and I am crazy proud of that! I want them to love their minds and know they are capable of anything they can dream and conceive. I want them to know they are neither too much or too little, but just as they were made to be. And the most beautiful liberating realization, the really good news, is that these things don't come from a world leader, man or woman. They come from their mama, their first tangible example, their humble and vulnerable guide. It's starts here, it always has and it always will. So come what may, but me and my people and their peoples, people, we are a group unapologetic women (and men), wild and empathetic and alive and aware, and we are building this new world, from the bottom up. The best way, the only way. Cheers mamas, we've got this!

By Alice Tang '18
"She's a smart student, always does her work and puts forth a good effort. Could speak up more in class."
I know I'm not the only Asian girl who got comments like these in elementary and middle school, but I was too scared to say the wrong thing in class to speak up. What else was I to do? The model minority myth of Asian students, perpetuated by our parents, our schoolmates, and our teachers, puts us under a pressure to meet any expectation of perfection; we must reach for the 100s, the 6s, the A+'s and the gold medals, because anything less is not representative of our potential. In addition, as a female student, my peers and teachers expected me to be quiet and diligent, helping others before myself in class, and modest about my individual abilities. Boys, on the other hand, learned to comfortably lead class discussions and command respect from their peers; these qualities, according to the subconscious biases of many adults, came naturally. As an Asian American girl, there is pressure to be both modest and submissive but also excel in every field. These two expectations ultimately carve out smart and dedicated students, but with no freedom to express their thoughts and reach their full potential.
Following my societal standards as a student, I proceeded to go out of my way in pleasing all my teachers and avoiding conflict of any kind, lest I make a mistake or draw attention to my modest self. I remember when my dad told me I was "too docile" because I would do whatever anyone asked of me. I didn't see how that could be a bad thing. For my Asian peers and I, we grew up believing that the ideal Asian daughter was one who got perfect grades, listened to her teachers, and obeyed her parents' every word. Not once should she complain, speak out, or contradict what others told her. So I taught myself these values and prided myself whenever I was able to hold my tongue.
"You can't listen to everything that everyone says," he explained, "You can't do everything that they tell you to do. It's impossible to please everyone, and yourself."
I didn't like this thought even though I knew it was true. Wasn't it my job to please everyone? Class time, for example, was a time for me to impress my teachers and deliver work that satisfied them. When leading a class discussion or a group project, I wanted to stand out and prove that I had meaningful ideas, but for the wrong reasons. I wanted to satisfy my teacher's requirements and my classmates needs. I felt like they expected me to do the work; I felt this responsibility. It was my job, as an Asian and as a girl, to do the hard work that would make us, as a collective group, do well.

Summer of slow
First, I wrote this in my head as I washed the morning's dishes. Then, I left a purple, plastic IKEA cup in the sink as a token to my commitment to writing it down and to consider whether or not these were words I wanted to share. I've gotten used to private contemplation this summer. I've adjusted to thinking thoughts and then letting them go.
This has been the summer of slow: of washing the morning's dishes; scraping and sweeping up Cocoa Pebbles off the ceramic kitchen tiles; straightening the throw pillows on the couch again; hanging pool towels on the line. There have been days when I wanted to scream, when I wished for salvation in the form of a plane ticket to Philadelphia paid for by my mother. There have been days I've feebly attempted to convince my 12 year old to wake up before 11 so we can spend a morning off the kibbutz doing "something," but he's never acquiesced and I've never pushed it.
It is August now, and we've done nothing, he and I. It is August, and we're closer now to the end of the summer than the beginning.
However, this "nothing" we've done is an intentional nothing. It is a nothing we knew from the start we were choosing to spend our summer doing. My son is six months into a program at Assaf HaRofeh hospital, in which we are trying to desensitize him from a life-threatening peanut allergy he's had since he was two. The protocol for this program requires my pre-teen son to ingest at-home portions of peanuts that the allergists (in a hospital setting) deemed safe for him. My son has to be at rest for a half hour before each dose and for two hours after. Two doses each day means my typically active, athletic son needs to remain sedentary for anywhere between 3 ½ – 4 ½ hours each day. The protocol also requires parental observation during these hours in case of symptoms or reactions to the dose of peanut he has eaten.
I am that parent. I am the person observing.
* * *
When I was a girl, summers were fast. The fastest of any season. Summers were spent at day camp and then, the summer I turned ten, at overnight camp in the Blue Ridge Mountains of Pennsylvania, later in Maine.
I never wanted the summer to end; not even the summer all of my best friends in the bunk were on the Green team during Color War, and I the lieutenant of White, the summer Laura kissed my boyfriend and nobody thought it was wrong but me. Even that summer, I wanted it to be July forever, because August meant I would soon be heading back home, back to my cozy bedroom with the lavender carpet spotted in places by benzoyl peroxide, back to air conditioned-cars and cable television. Back to a certain kind of comfort, but far away from an inner ease I realize now I only ever felt at camp.
It troubled my parents how hysterical they found me at the designated pick-up spot where the camp bus dropped me off. They wanted me to be as joyful and relieved at my return as they were. They were embarrassed by the tears that fell from my face into a personal pan pizza atop the bleached booth table at Pizza Hut. If they had asked me — and I vaguely remember them asking me once — "Why are you crying?" I wouldn't have known how to express the awareness that I was more 'me' at camp. That camp felt more "real."
* * *
There was an exact point in time last month during which I stopped resisting the summer of slow, stopped the bitter flow of resentment I aimed at Israel for being so hot, at Hannaton for being so boring, at my husband for being able to travel out of the country for work, at my local friends for snapping up last-minute deals to Bulgaria, at my Jerusalem friends for having poetry readings and film festivals to attend.
That point occurred exactly 23 days ago; and only in retrospect, I see it happened by choice. I was on Facebook, grimacing again at the photos posted of other people's children enjoying the Fourth of July Carnival at overnight camp, when an acquaintance of mine posted a link to a 21-day meditation challenge sponsored by the celebrity guru duo, Oprah and Deepak. I'm not a big fan of either, but I've always liked a challenge, and furthermore, I've seen positive results in taking on difficult, but healthful practices — eliminating sugar from my diet, for instance — only when I've continued regularly for three weeks. It's a magic number somebody else made up, not me. But three weeks works.
I completed the mediation challenge. I meditated every day for 21 days. I meditated yesterday, too. Today even, 23 days later.
And what I discovered, I believe, through the meditation practice, was how to enjoy this summer of slow. How to find moments of grace in the scraping up of Cocoa Pebbles off the kitchen floor. How to be, dare I say, grateful for the washing of the dishes, for the hanging of the pool towels.
I don't mean grateful in the easy way: the way one is momentarily grateful in comparison to the suffering of others. Grateful that I am well enough to walk with my children up to the community pool each afternoon in the stifling heat, for instance. Grateful that we even have a community pool, when others don't. Grateful that my husband is gainfully employed so I have flexibility to freelance from home and observe my son this summer. Grateful for a son, for my two other children.
I mean grateful in a way that, for me at least, is hard on a daily basis: Hard to practice, hard to maintain, and even harder to describe.
I mean an ongoing kind of gratitude: for the summer of slow, for the moments I've had to be alone with the mundane, with inactivity, with repetition and boredom; but also with my neuroses, my fears, my uncertainty. Just me, myself, and uninterrupted nothingness.
Isn't that what we complain we don't get enough of in modern times? Down time? Interesting, though, what we face when nothing becomes ours.
* * *
If we are lucky, there will be a time — not just a moment, but a whole time — in which my son and I will look back on this summer and remember we did nothing. That nothing happened. (Nothing, when you are ingesting a food that has always been poisonous to you, is actually what you find yourself wishing for.) If we are very lucky, he might be at overnight camp next summer, eating peanuts, wishing the summer will never end, remarking to himself how fast it has gone by, telling his friends how hard it will be to wait for next summer.
If we are lucky there will be a time in which I look back on this summer and understand it was necessary and good. That it was an unexpected, extravagant gift, even. That it was a slow summer in which I didn't clean out my closet, or write a novel, or teach myself or my son origami. But one in which I learned a little how to be alone, how to think thoughts and then let them go.

Once in a while I teach glaze painting teachiques. It is a lengthly process. And I thought I would so one just so I know what I'm talking about. I set up a still life with a strong light source. Then I did my underpainting in burnt sienna really concentrating on getting as much detail and accuracy as possible. Correct value is particularly critical. I'll add photos after each later of glaze.
I let the underpainting dry then applied the first layer of ultramarine blue. I'm putting it on thinner in the dark lights and not at all in the very light lights.

Tangier Island During Sunrise & Sunset
Who knew there was an island in the middle of the Chesapeake bay that had over 500 inhabitants, I certainly didn't and I have lived in Virginia most of my life.
It is definitely an interesting place and worth a visit. The island is known for its original South West England settlers that speak a unique English Restoration-era dialect. During the war of 1812, the British used the island as a staging area and contained some 1,200 British troops on the island at one time.
It is made up of many small islands divided by marshes and small tidal streams. The islands are connected with various wooden and steel bridges. The main island has three ridges, Main Ridge, Canton, and West Ridge. North of Tangier is an island that was abandoned after the stream between the two islands called Oyster Creek, became too wide to build a bridge over. This area is now homes to some of the inhabitants duck hunting lodges and crab shacks.
The island continues to loose folks who are searching for brighter futures, and land due to rising waters. Hurricane Sandy last year did a number on the island and caused several folks to have to abandon their homes.
Getting around the island isn't that difficult, if your into walking it is totally walkable, but you would most likely need a whole day to get around and see everything by foot. Gulf carts are the vehicle of choice by most inhabitants and are available for rent as soon as you arrive on the island. For the most part the roads are the size of walking paths or cart paths at a gulf course, however we did see a couple of cars or small pickup trucks on occasion. As for the bikes, we didn't see a ton of people, other than kids, riding them but they do have thrum strewn about all over the island.
Our workshop spent 2.5 days on the island, which allowed us the ability to capture both sunsets as well as sunrises. Being an island makes it perfect to capture the amazing sunlight as it goes down on one side and comes up on the other.
For the majority of my shots I used a combination of both Fuji and Olympus cameras with my entire collection of lenses. I also had my little Nikon V1 for shots from the ferry trip and around the dock on our final day.
I captured between 2-3k worth of photos and for this reason I will most likely break these up into a couple of different posts. For this first set my focus is on the sunrises and sunsets on the island. These times of the day proved to be amazing and allowed me to explore various long exposure techniques.

Hi again
I'm really sorry that I am hit and miss at the moment but its the house move that's taking up every spare minute we seem to get – opps just told you all a little white lie – the sun was yelling at me yesterday so I just had to laze around in the garden!!! Got a lovely start to the suntan though.
A few days ago I mentioned I had a couple of stamped cards to share so this is the first.
I used some amazing stamps from a new company http://www.aciddropsandwhatnots.co.uk/
The stamps are so different – really quirky – great fun...
And as you can see they work well when simply matted and layered in basic colours!!!
I have just been back on the website and ordered another couple of stamps for when I manage to get my new craft room set up again!!!
So materials for this card I used ….
Heat mat to work on and protect your surface – I always use it...
6x6 scalloped card blank
sheet of grey backing paper by Papermania
Stamp AD20 Lost 14 stone
Oddments of black card
flat back pearls in natural and metallic grey
Sticky pads
Eazi Score Board & tool
Tonic 8" guillotine
Shaping tool from www.dimensionstamps.com
Foam shaping mat – stamping mat or even a mouse mat
To make the card …
The scalloped card blank was folded in half then I trimmed a piece of grey patterned paper to fit the front leaving the scallops clear – the corners of the paper were nipped with a corner punch then paper stuck in place with double sided tape.
I stamped the lady using Black Memento ink pad, trimmed it down, nipped the corners then matted onto a piece of black card – nipped those corners then stuck to the left hand side of the card front again with double sided tape.
Next I stamped 2 of the sayings – the Darling at the top with the lovely shaped divider across the bottom and then the 2nd part of the verse.
Like the main image I nipped the corners, matted onto black with nipped corners then added to the card at an angle with double sided tape.
All that was left was to decorate and that was quick and easy..
I used natural coloured flat backed pearls in the 4 corners of the lady and in the centre of the black flowers of the backing paper.The metallic grey pearls were stuck in each corner of the sayings and also in the centre of the white flowers of the back ground.
I may when I find my crafty things – add a dot or two of colour to the lady – or even a sprinkling of glitter – but for now she is as she is!!!
And that's the card completed.
I did have someone in mind to send it off to but did something different so this is in the to use or to sell box
Catch you again "sometime soon"– same place folks

Do you sometimes wonder if you're ever going to get it together?
I know you have a vision.
A vision of your kids growing up well. In a happy home. With a happy mom.
Every January it's the same story: Your New Year's resolution is to get organized.
You look up thousands and thousands of ideas on Pinterest.
You see all those organized mom-bloggers in their perfect outfits, showing off the latest way they organized their flip-flops. Or their boxes of eyeshadow, their twenty different spice mixes, the carefully chosen selection of dog treats. Take your pick.
It's easy to look at them and think that this is exactly what you need.
If you just finally get this stuff tidied up, your life will be so much easier. Your laundry will stop haunting you, your kitchen will magically be clean and the playroom will never be a huge mess again. So you set out to arrange and re-arrange your family's belongings in your shelves, drawers and cabinets all over the house.
Maybe you work your butt off the next few weeks.
You are drowning in laundry all.the.time (and by some miracle, your family seems to produce mountains of dirty clothes always in the exact same moment). You have to fight to keep things tidy. And yet the stuff piles up instantly, EVERYWHERE.
You start struggling. You think… Maybe this IS just a hard and awful job, this homemaking thing? Maybe everyone knows this, and you're just a failure because you can't get over your laziness. Because you don't enjoy keeping a tidy home for your family.
Even if you sort of keep this up, you never feel that it's right. That this is something you see yourself doing for many years in a row. And you feel so incredibly guilty about it.
And once the clutter is back to its usual state, after you had another disorganized and stressful birthday celebration (which you swore you'd never allow to happen again), you give up. You just physically don't know how to conquer your household in a way that will last, without you turning into a frustrated cleaning-bot. Homemaking genes? Clearly you played hooky when they were given out.
And before you know it another New Year's Day is just around the corner – and you need to make the same resolution once again.
Let me tell you a secret: You are not alone.
Yes, there are many moms out there who weren't born with natural homemaking and organisation skills. But you might not even notice, so you feel as if everyone gets it, everyone except for you.
As women, we're pretty good at pretending everything is fine. And we're pretty bad when it comes to asking for help.
So we keep up appearances. Clean up the house for an entire day before guests come over, usually having to make last minute decisions between stuffing the remaining chaos into random cupboards vs opening the door in our sweats. Pretend that we have it together, while in reality "home" means anxiety, stress and endless frustration to us.
And you know what this leads to: You feel ashamed. Too ashamed to confide in anyone, probably not even your own mom.
But I want you to know this: It doesn't have to be this way.
I know there's something so much better waiting for you.
I know there's a way you can feel proud of your homemaking skills.
I know there's a way you can enjoy keeping a nice home for your family.
I even know there's a way you can pack for a vacation in an organized way, buy (and wrap) every Christmas present before Christmas Eve, have time and energy for fun crafts, trips or just a quiet moment with a book, and be motivated to get out of bed early in the morning.
You want answers, you say? Well, I want an answer first:
Do you want to keep working hard to fight back the clutter, or do you want to start working hard to create a wonderful home and life?
I will never claim that you can clean up your home once and then never having to do it again. #lifewithkids
But I can guarantee you that you can stop putting your energy into a battle you will never win and start using it to actually create that happy home you always dream of.
The trick to making your dream come true… Isn't another organizing project. At least not right now.
The trick is to purge your life from everything that's standing in the way of your dream.
You need to SIMPLIFY before you can organize.
You will never find the time and energy to make those wonderful memories with your kids if you keep fighting your stuff.
Find it impossible to give things away?
Well, it is time to start seeing yourself as the manager of your family.
And as the manager of your family, you need to make some tough choices.
You need to step up and strip your home from the unnecessary, so you can bring in the good.
And once you go back to the beginning, hit the reset button on your home (yes, you're allowed to do that) and SIMPLIFY, you can begin to learn.
Learn about the cycles of your household. Learn about the routines that make an inviting home. Learn about the habits that will help you become one of those organized moms, and in turn take away your frustration to give you back your smile.
Because once you purge your home from all the clutter that's in the way, and only keep what you a) really need and/or b) that brings you true joy – you will find that you can start organizing what deserves to be organized – and that managing a family is yes, a ton of work, but it's work that rewards you with actual results vs constantly reminding you of your failed homemaking skills.
So this time around, instead of organizing what's just in the way, start with getting rid of everything you do not truly need to make a cozy, well-run home.
And those failed homemaking skills? Forget about failure.
You're going to literally rock your house, I know it.

Art Review: Photographer Julie Blackmon's Memories of Home
By Meg Brazill
June 28, 2017
A mother's back is turned to her three small children while she searches deep in a car trunk for something out of view. Behind her, one of her children spins around a loading zone sign, while her baby brother picks at cracks in the sidewalk outside a boarded-up building, and their toddler sister clutches a purse as she crosses the street alone. The scene is ominous yet strangely carefree — if trouble is on the horizon, it hasn't happened yet.
Julie Blackmon's photographs, including "Loading Zone," suggest a delicate balance between freedom and responsibility, chaos and order. They provide a glimpse into the artist's world and, sometimes, right into her backyard.
Ten of Blackmon's large-scale color photographs from her most recent series, "Homegrown," are on exhibit in "Julie Blackmon: The Everyday Fantastic" at the Hood Downtown gallery in Hanover, N.H.

According to various reports, the picture shows hairdresser Francis "Franz" Jacob lying on the floor in an attempt to cut his client, Wyatt Lafreniere's hair. Little Wyatt, 6, has autism and his mother says, he sometimes finds it unbearable to have his hair cut, reports A Plus. The picture was posted on Imgur on October 1 and has since left several people moved.
Barber cutting hair of autistic boy
''Usually hairdressers sort of panicked when they saw Wyatt arrive, so it was really exceptional to meet Mr Jacob,'' Ms Lafreniere told CBS News. ''He welcomes him like his best friend. To see that he accepts these differences is just fantastic,'' she added.
Mr Jacob also understands what works with Wyatt. "Each time I'm doing Wyatt's hair, he's always going on the ground, moving around, sitting on his mom's lap, standing beside the chair," he told National Post. "That's why I have a wireless clipper now, because at first I had to follow Wyatt around and plug my clipper into (different outlets)."
Now, the online world has been left touched by the hairdresser going out of his way to accommodate the little boy. Since being posted, the picture has collected over 1.5 lakh views and a ton of positive comments.
"As a police officer that encounters people on the autistic spectrum on a regular basis, this absolutely warms my heart," says one commenter on Imgur. "Because of stuff like this on here, ive been motivated to do my fair share of random kindness over the years," says another.
"As someone who is helping raise a young child with autism this warms my heart to see. Upvote a million times!" says one Imgur user on the photo. "Thanks for going the extra mile," says another.trending news

AFC Wulfrunians produced an excellent battling display to pick up all three points against Highgate United, their first victory against the Birmingham based side since joining the Midland Football League. A goal in either half from Nicky Turton and Brodie Williams proved enough after Isaac Jagroop had initially drawn the home side level halfway through the first half.
The home side were quickest out of the blocks with Jagroop causing problems. First he saw his shot from the edge of the area tipped over the bar and then headed just over the crossbar following a long free kick into the area.
It was therefore against the run of play when Wulfs took the lead in the 17th minute and came from their first piece of neat passing football. Some neat interplay on the right between Richard Palmer, Joe Daley and Matt Johnson ended with Palmer sliding a neat ball through for Turton to fire in off the far post.
The goal lifted Wulfs and they had a couple of chances to extend their lead. Jordan Harrison fired a first time shot from Craig Gregg's low cross just over the angle of the goal and the Gregg himself fired just over after receiving a square pass from Palmer.
The home side got going again and levelled the scores in the 25th minute. Aaron Brown's cross from the left was headed home by an unchallenged Jagroop.
Jagroop then had a header tipped over the bar by Bateman after another pin-point cross from Brown.
Just before the interval, Williams played a neat diagonal ball to Harrison who slipped past his man before firing a low, fierce shot straight at the keeper.
Highgate were first to show in the second half when Jagroop headed the ball on to Dale Edwards who returned a low cross into the middle which Jagroop stretched for but could only fire wide of the target.
It was Wulfs who grabbed the all-important second goal in the 62nd minute. Harrison drive at the home defence before slide a pass outside to Turton whose low ball across goal was controlled and superbly finished by Williams.
Turton went close to adding a third after receiving the ball from Williams but his fierce shot was pushed wide by the keeper.
It didn't matter as Wulfs had already done enough to secure an excellent three points on the road.
FINAL SCORE: Highgate United 1 AFC Wulfrunians 2.

The managing director of Illinois' Office of Trade and Investment, a part of the Department of Commerce and Economic Opportunity, has spent quite a bit of state money on travel.
The managing director of Illinois' Office of Trade and Investment, a part of the Department of Commerce and Economic Opportunity, has spent quite a bit of state money on travel.
RAJINDER BEDI, 56, of Chicago, who makes about $111,700 annually, billed the state more than $157,000 for travel from April 2005 to late 2008, including more than $140,000 for foreign trips. Of those foreign trips, six were exclusively or in part to India, and bills on those trips totaled more than $47,000. He was on another trip to India this week, DCEO spokeswoman ASHLEY CROSS said.
Bedi's name has occasionally been in the news. In early 2007, the Chicago Sun-Times identified him as having been a leading fundraiser for then-Gov. ROD BLAGOJEVICH in the Indian-American community. Bedi also raised at least $100,000 as a vice-chair of JOHN KERRY's 2004 presidential campaign, the newspaper said.
Shortly after the Dec. 9 arrest of Blagojevich by federal authorities who accused Blagojevich of trying to sell the former U.S. Senate seat of President BARACK OBAMA, the Chicago Tribune reported that Bedi told those attending an Oct. 31 fundraising luncheon for Blagojevich that the effort was aimed at supporting the appointment of U.S. Rep. JESSE JACKSON JR., D-Chicago, to the seat.
The Tribune said Bedi had been a "key fundraiser" for Blagojevich and that Blagojevich had referred to Bedi, who wears a turban, as "my Sikh warrior."
Blagojevich and Jackson have both denied participating in any improper actions surrounding the Senate seat.
Bedi is described in a one-page bio from mid-2007 as a business and civic leader in the Indian community in Illinois and nationally. He also was described as an entrepreneur who had started and run a diverse portfolio of businesses.
His statement of economic interest filed with the secretary of state's office shows he still is involved with or makes money from the Indian Reporter newspaper, Extra Wide Sock Co., and Design Group, a consulting, advertising and marketing firm. All are at the same address on Chicago's north side.
Bedi has taken more than 30 state trips to, among other destinations, Canada, Singapore, Poland, Israel, South Africa, Spain, Ecuador, Ireland and Thailand.
A check of records from the comptroller's office shows the most expensive trip he took was to India and Germany from Nov. 6-14, 2006. That bill came to $10,184. Documents show Bedi attended a conference in Mumbai, where he sought to promote sale of chemical products made in Illinois, and a medical-oriented trade show in Dusseldorf.
On more than one occasion as a candidate and governor, Blagojevich spoke of traveling to India to promote trade, but never made such a trip during his six years in office.
Cross, the DCEO spokeswoman, said Bedi leads efforts to promote Illinois trade with other countries, including their companies investing in the state, and manages a staff of 36 in 12 offices around the world, including Chicago and Springfield. Bedi's travels help manage staff, promote exports and showcase Illinois as a place in which to bring business, she said.
She said Bedi's office "helped secure new direct foreign investments in Illinois of over $255 million in 2007 alone." Illinois has moved from seventh to fifth among states in exports, and the state's exports of goods and services totaled $48.73 billion in 2007.
"International travel is carefully planned to make the most of each trip and is conducted according to the state's travel polices," Cross said.
Bedi joined the state in 2003 as director of emerging markets, Cross said.
Bedi's predecessor in the managing director's job was ROSS HARANO, who had worked for the state from mid-2003 to mid-2005. In that time, his total travel reimbursement was about $6,200, mostly within Illinois. He did travel to England and Germany in 2004, but the state paid just $510 for that trip, as the Chicago Southland Chamber of Commerce paid most costs. About $1,050 was spent on another trip that year, which Harano recalls was a biotechnology conference in San Francisco.
Harano said he focused on having his staff members do the international traveling, because they were the ones organizing meetings and conferences. There also was professional staff already in place at DCEO offices in Illinois offices in other countries.
Harano, 66, of Chicago, was paid about $101,000 annually by the state. He now is president of the board of the Chicago-based Illinois Campaign for Political Reform.
Schock opens city office
U.S. Rep. AARON SCHOCK, R-Peoria, has opened a Springfield office at 235 S. Sixth St. That's a different location from the west-side office where his predecessor, U.S. Secretary of Transportation RAY LaHOOD, had his office in the capital city.
LaHood didn't seek re-election last year, and Schock won the job.
"This location is highly visible and easily accessible to residents who walk, drive or take public transportation," Schock said in a news release.
The office, on the northwest corner of Sixth and Monroe streets, is in the space that long ago was Allen's Cigar Store. More recently, it housed El Presidente Burritos.
CAROL MERNA of Canton, Schock's district chief of staff, is overseeing Schock offices in Peoria, Jacksonville and Springfield. Merna also worked for both LaHood and his predecessor, then-U.S. House GOP Leader BOB MICHEL of Peoria.
"Even though they're very different men, they have wonderful leadership styles that are very similar," Merna said of Michel, LaHood and Schock. "Aaron cares a great deal about taking good care of the district, and that's why I'm here." She makes $90,000 annually.
The district offices employ seven people. Besides Merna, other top staffers — NATE HURN, JUDY HINDS and BARB BAKER — also worked for LaHood.
Hurn, Peoria-based district office manager and veterans policy adviser, makes $50,000 annually. Hinds is constituent services specialist in the Springfield office, and Baker has the same title in the Jacksonville office. They each are paid $45,000 annually.
The full address of the Springfield office is at 235 S. Sixth St., Springfield, IL 62701. The phone number is 670-1653.
The Jacksonville office is at 209 W. State St., Jacksonville, IL 62650. The number is 245-1431.
Meanwhile, Schock's Washington-based communications director is DAVE NATONSKI, 28, who earlier worked for then-U.S. Rep. CHRISTOPHER SHAYS, R-Conn.
Shays, who Natonski called "probably as moderate as you can get" as a Republican, was defeated for re-election last year.
"I saw a lot of similarities between my old boss and Aaron," Natonski said. "They're both very positive members of Congress." Among similarities, he said, is avoiding negative campaigning, being "forward-thinking" and seeking to work across party lines.
"Aaron is a great person to work for," Natonski said. "I really believe in his message. I really wanted to work for someone like him."
Natonski is paid $55,000 annually.
Natonski also has gotten a bit of press himself, which he downplays. A Washington publication called "The Hill" annually picks the "50 most beautiful" people working in the nation's capital. Both now-President Obama and Natonski made the top 10 that year.
"It's something they do," Natonski said. "There are a lot worse things than to make that list."
Sorry, ladies. He has a girlfriend.
Meanwhile, Schock was quite evident in the televised run-up to Obama's speech to a joint session of Congress Tuesday evening.
The congressman was near the entrance where Obama and other dignitaries entered the House chamber, so viewers got to see him a lot.
Natonski said Schock arrived early to get a good seat.
As the president entered, Natonski said, "Schock said, 'Welcome, Mr. President,'" and Obama responded, "Good to see you, Aaron." On the way out, Schock told Obama, "Nice job, Mr. President," and Obama then thanked him, Natonski said.
Condolences to Secretary of State JESSE WHITE on the death Saturday of one of his sisters, DOROTHY WHITE, who passed away in Tolleson, Ariz., a suburb of Phoenix. She was 73.
She was retired after working at a department store. Funeral arrangements were pending. Secretary White was one of seven children.
Bernard Schoenburg is political columnist for The State Journal-Register. He can be reached at 788-1540 or email@example.com.

There seems to be a problem finishing the request at present. A sleek cymbal may, for instance serve, as the principle ride in some types of music, however in a bigger equipment, which includes a conventional ride cymbal as well, it may well be considered an effects cymbal per se. Likewise, Ozone crashes have the identical goal as a normal crash cymbal, however are considered to be results cymbals on account of their rarity, and the holes reduce into them, which give a darker, extra resonant attack.
The bass drum , snare drum , cymbals , and other percussion instruments were all performed utilizing hand-held drum sticks Drummers in musical theater shows and stage reveals, where the funds for pit orchestras had been often limited, contributed to the creation of the drum set because they tried to develop ways so that one drummer could do the job of a number of percussionists.
Standard electronics include: electronic sound modules; laptop computers used to activate loops , sequences and samples ; metronomes and tempo meters; recording gadgets; and private sound reinforcement equipment (e.g., a small PA system to amplify digital drums and supply a monitor).
Most drummers have a single foremost trip, positioned near their proper hand—within easy taking part in attain, as it's used very regularly—most often a 20″ sizing but, sixteen"-24″ diameters aren't unusual. Cymbals of any kind used to provide an accent quite than a daily pattern or groove are known as accent cymbals.
The larger the depth of the drum, the louder the amount. The drum package played a key function within the large band swing sound. Their tone varies a great deal from drummer to drummer, reflecting their individual kinds and the styles of music they play. Some cymbals may be thought-about effects in some kits but "basic" in one other set of elements.

The Hummel Report
Investigative Reports That Get Results
A Rhode Island 501c3 Non-Profit
Divided Interest
It is one of the most prime pieces of real estate in Rhode Island. But the condominiums on Goat Island South in Newport have also been embroiled in multiple property disputes and litigation for more than a decade. Now, one of the property owners is asking the General Assembly to change the law and allow him to preserve an expansion of his condominium that doubled the unit's size - while the Supreme Court is deciding an appeal from some of his neighbors who say the expansion violated state law. Jim Hummel hears from both sides on the proposed legislation.
Nearly everywhere you look, there is water.
With the Newport Bridget to the west, Fort Adams to the south and Newport Harbor to the East, the condominiums on Goat Island South have been a select slice of Rhode Island real estate since the late 1980s, after condos went up on land formerly owned by The U.S. Navy.
But Goat Island has also been embroiled in multiple property disputes resulting in litigation – lots of it, with three lawsuits so far going to the Rhode Island Supreme Court. Right in the middle of the current-day legal wrangling: Bennie Sisto, an accountant and property investor from Lincoln, who owns four of the 19 standalone townhouse units on the east end of the island overlooking Newport Harbor.
The entire development consists of those townhouses, called the Harbor Houses, along with 46 units in the America building and 89 in another building, called Capella. Together they make up a total of 154 units on Goat Island South.
Sisto has been both a defendant and a plaintiff.
Diane Vanden Dorpel and her husband Ron bought a unit in The America building in 1992, primarily for this view of the harbor from their porch, later buying a second unit as an investment in 2005, about a year before she first met Sisto.
Vanden Dorpel: ``He was very nice. He had these plans to really expand the unit that's directly in front of us. And it would have blocked our water view and we were trying to see if we could compromise.''
Sisto's attempts to expand this unit in 2006 and another he owns set in motion litigation that is still going today.
Vandel Dorpel: ``Our concern was, if he can do it down there, what's going to stop him from doing it in front of us? Nothing.''
Meanwhile Sisto has gone to the Rhode Island General Assembly to try and change the state's three-decade-old Condominium Act. At issue: this 3,800-square-foot townhouse that was half the size it is now when Sisto bought in 2011. Within months of the purchase he began adding 1,200 square feet of living space and a third floor, even though some of his neighbors went to court to try and stop him – saying he didn't have the permission of the other unit owners to expand onto what was shared condominium space – a basic tenant of state law.
Shamoon: ``I didn't think he had the right to do that. I told him, I said, why don you go…he could do it if he got the permission of all 153 other unit owners.''
Sam Shamoon is a former planner for the city of Providence, who bought a unit in Capella 10 years ago.
Shamoon: ``Anybody who buys into a condominium, I did it with my eyes open. I read all of the documents. It's not like buying a house in Cranston, or Exeter or Even Providence - where the only restriction on you is the zoning, or other building code issues. When you buy into a condominium it's a host of restrictions.''
But Sisto maintains he had permission to expand when the declarations governing the property were amended in 2007. And now he is trying to change state law – a change that would allow him to keep the expansion he made to this unit, as he has had mixed success up until now in court.
Boyle: ``Anyone who's live in a condo can see that sometimes things get contentious. Goat Island for some reason, the associations like to find themselves in court.''
Sisto has hired high-profile lobbyist Christopher Boyle - a Newport lawyer and former House majority whip – to represent him before the General Assembly. Companion bills have been filed in the House and the Senate, but neither of the bills' sponsors has any ties to Newport. The House bill is sponsored by Judiciary Committee Chairman Cale Keable of Burrillville, and the Senate bill by Judiciary Committee Chairman Michael McCaffrey of Warwick. Both told The Hummel Report they introduced the bills at Boyle's request.
Sisto declined our request for an interview, instead having Boyle speak on his behalf.
Boyle: ``From the very beginning there was a provision allowing the townhouses to be altered, to be expanded. Anyone who bought their unit, from the moment that condominium started, was on notice that the townhouses could be expanded.
But critics say those amendments did not conform to state law. Sisto has already lost one case in the state Supreme Court trying to expand a unit he owns. In that case a justice termed his reasoning ``legal fiction.''
Shamoon: `` He was building this knowingly. He knew that this was against the law, against the condo laws and he persisted in any event. So he doesn't like the law, he goes to the legislature to get it changed. I think that's the bottom line.''
The legislation passes, it would allow him to keep the expansion on this unit intact. A Superior Court judge warned him that he expanded at his own risk when his neighbors took him to court shortly after construction began in 2011; but the judge also did not order him to stop construction or to tear down the expansion. That decision is now on appeal to the Rhode Island Supreme Court, which should hear arguments sometime this fall.
Vanden Dorpel – who has testified repeatedly against the bills - labels them special legislation to benefit one person and a threat statewide to the Rhode Island Condominium Act, a consumer protection law modeled after national legislation that has been adopted in the majority of other states.
Vanden Dorpel: ``The very idea that someone would expand and take over land that's owned by his neighbors, without their consent, is just mind boggling.''
Hummel: ``Any doubt in your mind that this legislation was written and filed specifically for Mr. Sisto?''
Vanden Dorpel: ``No.''
Boyle: ``This, to me, is legislation that I've seen a thousand times trying to address a problem.''
Boyle rejects Vanden Dorpel's arguements, saying laws are amended regularly each session.
Boyle: ``And we think what we are requesting is reasonable. What we think is unreasonable is to go before the Supreme Court and ask for an order to tear down someone's home, when it doesn't block a view, it doesn't interfere with any of their lifestyle or their quality of life. They just want to tear it down. And by extension, once you tear that one down you have the right to tear down the others.''
Boyle says nine other Harbor House units have expanded at various times, and if the Supreme Court rules against Sisto on the expansion of his unit, the other owners, by extension, might have to tear down their expansions.
Vanden Dorpel says there has never been any talk of tearing down any of the other units – just the doubling in size of Sisto's unit or plans that would block other owners' water views. And, she adds, if this legislation goes through, it could affect other condominium associations in the state.
Vanden Dorpel: ``If the Rhode Island General Assembly allows one person to make an end run around a Supreme Court decision to take land that belongs to 153 of his neighbors, without their consent, I think it's a very sad day for Rhode Island.''
Boyle says the legislation is a direct response to one of the Supreme Court decisions that said it had no choice but to rule against Sisto because of the way state law is written.
Boyle: ``So as it has happened in time immemorial there was a decision made to seek legislative redress. To say, perhaps General Assembly, you might want to look at the Supreme Court 's decision and say that's not really how the law should operate. We're seeking legislative redress to say let's go back and legislatively put in the '07 agreement and let's live by those rules. And I think that is a reasonable result. When those people bought those units in the declaration it clearly stated that those townhouses could be expanded. It didn't come out of thin air.
Hummel: ``Isn't' that declaration, though, the source of litigation?''
Boyle: ``Yes.''
Hummel: ``In effect, that you can say whatever you want in a declaration, but if it doesn't conform with state law then what's going to win? State law right?''
Boyle: ``Well that's where we're seeking our remedy.''
Hummel: ``What about the larger issue that this could have an impact elsewhere in the state?''
Boyle: ``We heard that argument and we are now looking at language to make sure that we're addressing only this particular issue.''
And since our interview last week, Boyle has proposed several revisions to the bill that would make the legislation apply more specifically to the set of circumstances on Goat Island South.
He presented those revisions at a hearing Tuesday night before the Senate Judiciary Committee. After listening to more than an hour of testimony the committee voted to hold the bill for further study.
And McCaffrey tells The Hummel Report based on the testimony he heard, the bill is unlikely to pass this session.

Alright. The time has come. I now have wedding photos in my possession (hoorah!), I've had time to reflect, and I've enjoyed 2 full months of married life! So how did it all go down?
The months leading up to the wedding were such an interesting time of life. It felt similar to my last semester of college - leaving something beautiful for something [hopefully] greater. There was my bachelorette party in Vegas (yup, that happened), my bridal shower in PA, a little bridal shower brunch in Boston, another bachelorette night of fun with my roommates, random nights of happy hour or taking advantage of time with friends before transitioning into marriage. It was a joyous time.
I took off work the entire week before the wedding, and the first big event was a family weekend in Hilton Head, SC. We've been going to Hilton Head for 20 years or so, and my parents bough a house there several years ago. It's a beautiful place and we love it. It was the first time my entire immediate family (plus my older brother's new wife) had been there together in YEARS. So it was the perfect opportunity to enjoy some quality time together like we used to. That meant of course the beach, ultra-competitive miniature golf, Giuseppe's pizza, nighttime scene-it, and some more beach. A lovely time was had by all! As excited as my parents are for grandkids with three of us married now, I think they've been trying to soak up as much time with us as possible before that happens.
I flew back directly to PA Monday night, and the next morning things kicked off with my hair trial appointment (a super awkward time - I'm just no good in those situations). Then it was right to the Philly airport to pickup three of my bridesmaids - Sarah (Boston, MA), Elise (Detroit, MI), and Ashlie (Grand Forks, ND)! It meant so much that my friends would come a few days early to just be with me before the big day. Meanwhile, Kevin had arrived Tuesday morning, but went to the hotel with 2 of the 4 priests con-celebrating our wedding (all the way from Duluth, MN; all of them were seminarians with Kevin in college). They came over for dinner that evening to enjoy some fine delicacy (aka CHICK-FIL-A). I had only met these men once at a Duluth ordination right after Kevin and I had gotten engaged - so it was so beautiful to have them now in my home!
Wednesday morning, bright and early, I picked up another bridesmaid, Emily (Tempe, AZ), and a groomsmen from the airport. The ladies and I spent the morning at Pat's Colonial Kitchen (my favorite breakfast place in Newtown), and they generously wandered in the rain as I gave them a tour of the land (of course I showed them the Newtown Theatre - oldest running theatre in America)! When we all left BU, we had high hopes of staying friends for life, but with everyone spreading out all over the country, we thought our best bet for all being together again would be a 5 year reunion. As God would let it happen, 4/5 of us have gotten together over 7-8 times (with 4 of those times being ALL of us) in 3 years! Such a gift.
Tuesday and Wednesday were such odd days. They were truly beautiful, but it was odd in the sense that I didn't feel like this big, heavy thing was approaching. It was just as if my best friends came to visit my hometown, and I was their happy little tour guide! Wednesday evening, Kevin's family arrived from Duluth and came over for dinner - his brother, mom, and uncle. It was so wonderful to have our families meet for the first time in a relaxed environment.
Thursday is when things got REAL. Real in the sense that everyone else started arriving, we were dropping things off where they needed to go, checking people into the hotel, getting ready for the rehearsal...a whirlwind. But it was all SO GOOD. It was so surreal that it was happening, but it brought so much joy. The rehearsal went smoothly (except for that beginning part where the church was locked...), and being up on that alter was a crazy feeling. Immediately after the rehearsal, we went down into the lower church for our holy hour. Best.Idea.Ever. All four priests were available for confession, which many people took advantage of. And just being in front of the blessed sacrament the night before our wedding with all these people we loved from all parts of the world...there are no words.
After adoration, we went up to the main church for Mass (it was Ascension Thursday), and once again...I'm speechless for the love I experienced. The Minnesotan priests [unexpectedly] concelebrated, and the Monsignor at my parish welcomed Kevin and I in front of everyone, thanking us for our witness. It was a heavenly joy. I'm really big on heaven. Like, I'm super excited for it and think about it often. And there's many moments in life where I'm just like, "yup - this is a taste of what's to come." It tends to be in community for me - all of us together experiencing great joy, with the focus being on our Lord. Love it!
Following mass was our open rehearsal dinner at my house. Kevin and I wanted this to be an open event, since so many people had traveled so far to be with us. So everyone came over, Father Drew blessed the bar, and the festivities began. What a night to remember. My friends have always meant the world to me, and to physically have them in my home, the place where I grew up, I just cannot fully communicate the beauty. Everyone had a blast (I mean, it was a Krouchick party, so people expected nothing less from Bob & Helene - my parents). My siblings each gave a toast, one including a hilarious slideshow. And the floor was opened up to anyone who wanted to say a few words. People were funny, touching, loving, emotional, everything and more. It was such a gift to Kevin and me. We gave our thanks as best we could, and everyone continued the fun.
At the end of the evening, Kevin and I stole a moment upstairs just to be present in the fruits. Both of us just felt so loved, so grateful, so humbled, and so ready for what was to come. Neither of us could have imagined a better entrance into our wedding day. The Holy Spirit was truly present. From what I've heard, the days surrounding your wedding can sometimes seem like a blur looking back, or even while in the midst of it. I have to say, I felt completely present able to enjoy it. Such a grace. Even looking back, it's so fresh in my mind. I'm give thanks to God for allowing me to live fully in those moments. And it only got better the next day...!

Easy Forex Trading Ltd.
EasyMarkets PTY Ltd.
easyMarkets (previously Easy-Forex) is the trading name of Easy Forex Trading Ltd. – a Cyprus-based brokerage, established back in 2003. It provides its services in over 160 countries worldwide, offering trading in 175 products ranging from currencies, CFDs on indices commodities, metals and Bitcoin, as well as options and forward contracts.
Easy Forex Trading Ltd, doing business as easyMarkets, is licensed and regulated by the Cyprus Securities and Exchange Commission (CySEC, license No 079/07), and its Australian subsidiary - EasyMarkets PTY Ltd. - is authorized and regulated by the Australian Securities and Investment Commission (ASIC).
CySEC applies certain rules to license holders, one of them being the requirement such firms to hold a minimum capital in order to conduct their business operations legitimately. The Commission requires Cyprus-based forex brokers to hold at least €730 000. As regulation of financial services providers usually involves such a requirement, Australian brokers are obliged to hold a minimum of $1,000,000 by ASIC.
Furthermore, the Cypriot financial watchdog applies a compensation scheme as additional guarantee to clients' funds. All CySEC-regulated companies are members of the Investor Compensation Fund, the compensation fund of last resort for customers of authorized financial services firms. If the Company becomes insolvent or ceases trading, it is able to pay compensation to its covered clients, amounting to a maximum of 20,000 EUR.
Unlike many other EU-based brokers, Australian ones are not covered by any compensation scheme.
Focus on client protection
easyMarkets is a broker that places a special focus on client protection. Apart from offering tight fixed spreads, which do not widen during news releases, easyMarkets is one of the few brokers that provide Negative Balance Protection. This means that you can never lose more funds than you have deposited, even though you are trading on margin.
Besides, it allows forex traders to cancel losing trades via its state-of-the-art feature dealCancellation, available on its in-house platform.
Minimum initial deposit
In order to open an account with easyMarkets, one has to deposit at least $100, which is a reasonable and competitive minimum initial deposit.
Spreads & Commissions
This broker offers fixed spreads, which allows traders to predetermine their costs. What is more, no commission fees are charged, as the broker generates revenues through the bid-ask spread paid by traders on each transaction.
Although fixed spreads generally tend to be wider that variable ones, this is not the case with easyMarkets – their spreads amount to 1 pips on EUR/USD and are accessible with a deposit of $250. In comparison, Exness and Plus500 (also regulated by CySEC) offer fixed spreads amounting to 2 pips for this currency pair.
The maximum leverage level offered by this broker is 1:400, which is considered comparatively high, as CySEC has recently proposed the default leverage provided by brokers to be 1:50. The reason for such leverage limitations is that higher leverage involves higher risk of heavy losses. Nonetheless, many Cyprus-based brokers offer high leverage levels: XM – up to 1:888, FXTM – up to 1:500.
Clients of easyMarkets may choose from the broker's proprietary web-based platform and the popular Metatrader 4 (MT4).
easyMarkets' in-house platform offers advanced charts, live market news, technical analysis and sentiment all in one screen, one click trading (from the Market Explorer).

GDAX, which stands for Global Digital Asset Exchange, is a company owned by Coinbase. While some of you may know Coinbase for the ability to purchase Bitcoin directly by Credit Card, GDAX is the other part of the company – the exchange aimed at traders. Trading fees at GDAX are much lower and margin trading is available.
|NY BitLicense
As mentioned above GDAX is actually a part of San Francisco – based Coinbase. The company holds the New York BitLicnese, which is by its nature an interesting piece of legislation. The New York Department of Financial Services (NYDFS) attempted to make the city a major Bitcoin trading center, the same way it hosts the world's largest stock exchange. One may argue the idea backfired, as a lot of the key players backed-out of the 2015 proposal. This is due to the burdensome and slow regulatory procedure. As of the summer of 2017 only three companies have received the license and Coinbase is one of them.
When it comes to hacking, a major attack has not struck GDAX or Coinbase. That being the case, there was a "flash crash" in Ethereum prices, which raises suspicion. The coin was trading at around $317, when it suddenly spiked to an alleged value of 10 cents and quickly retraced. The company proceeded to halt trading and later claimed this was merely a "fat finger" - single large trader accidentally placed a market sell order, which triggered a chain of stop-loss orders to be executed. Here is а live video, shot by a trader, who has connected a MetaTrader4 platform to his GDAX account (the interesting thing happens around 2:50):
The public's concerns, of course, come from the fact GDAX offers margin trading. The company could have manipulated the price, in order to wipe-out traders who were long. All of this is purely speculation.
Other than this case, the user reviews for GDAX generally match the ones for Coinbase. One of the major concerns of the fans of decentralization in the cryptoverse, is the fact a lot of the investors behind the project are well-established in the traditional financial sector.
Trading instruments (cryptocurrencies)
Only three crypto currencies are available at GDAX, namelyBitcoin, Ethereum and Litecoin. Trading is done against USD and EUR, with BTC/GBP also being available, alongside the crypto-crosses ETH/BTC and LTC/BTC.
Minimum initial deposit
There is no information on the minimum initial deposit at GDAX, which is not that unusual in the crypto currency sphere. On the other hand, most forex brokers have such a level and disclose it on their websites. For instance the FCA-regulated industry pioneers at IG (who also offer some coins as CFDs) proudly announce they do not have a minimum – you can open an account for as low as you want.
Margin trading is available on GDAX, with a maximum leverage ratio of 1:3. While this may sound like nothing in comparison to the 1:500, which a lot of forex brokers offer, keep in mind such high levels only apply for fiat currencies, which rarely have price movements bigger than 1-2% per day.
When it comes to crypto, the aforementioned broker IG offers 1:13 in leverage (a 7.5% margin requirement). For a full comparison between crypto-exchanges and forex brokers, who offer Bitcoin trading, read this article.
The costs of trading at GDAX are a lot lower than the ones available at Coinbase. When trading on the exchange, market "makers" (the people who place passive orders and wait for other traders to trigger them) do not pay a fee. Market "takers" (i.e. the "aggressive" traders who directly buy/sell with a market order) pay fees starting from 0.25% and going down for the bigger traders. Both of these levels (especially the free of charge passive trading) are very competitive.
The platform provided by GDAX, which is web-based, is a lot better than the one offered at Coinbase. That being said, we find the charting lacking when compared to the charts provided by TradigView (which other exchanges have integrated, as well as MetaTrader4, of course. Only a couple of predetermined moving averages are available, in terms of technical indicators. Here is a preview (click to zoom-in):
The order book is located at the left and the more bizarre design decision to place the "ask" column on top of the "bids" is made. While this may seem strange to experienced traders it does provide a nice graphical representation for beginners. The tape is located to the left, with the middle ground being taken by the chart (which is nothing special) and the open positions tab.
While Coinbase is obviously the main source of clients (and funds) for GDAX, money can also be sent directly to the exchange. This is a massive convenience tool, as accounts can be funded, without the need of paying the hefty Coinbase fees. That being said, Credit/Debit Card deposits can only be made via Coinbase, while GDAX accepts Bank transfers.
GDAX is a part of Coinbase and more specifically the part of the company, which is targeting more active traders. The fee structure is very competitive, especially with the free market "maker" trades. The selection of trading assets is not great, but the trading platform feels relatively nice (although charting is nothing special). Here is a summary of GDAX:
|New York BitLicense
|Few altcoins available
|Competitive trading fees
|Suspicion regarding the ETH spike
|No major hacks yet
|Accepts Bank Transfers
|Relatively nice trading platform
