A few days ago, I heard an acquaintance say she hadn't known of the widespread abuse of women until she read about Harvey Weinstein. This is hard to believe. But we all live in one kind of bubble or another and the facts are truly hideous.
I thought of this last week when I saw a one-time screening here in Santa
Fe of David Stenn's documentary, Girl 27. I thought the title must refer to the "girl"'s age. In fact, Patricia Douglas was "Girl 27" on a long list of young extras who were invited to an MGM party in Hollywood, in 1937, under the guise of a casting shoot for a movie.
How exciting! What young wanna-be star could resist it?
The "girls" arrived at a hotel in Hollywood, were costumed as cute western cowgirls and loosed on a big group of MGM agents—the men who sold the movies. The men were told by Sam Goldwin, "You can have anything you want."
Liquor flowed. Confused, expecting to be auditioned for a role in a movie, 17-year-old Patricia Douglas refused a drink, saying, "I don't drink." Two of the men seated with her at a table forced liquor down her throat, one of them holding her nose—a mixture of Scotch and champagne. Barely able to walk, she stumbled outside to throw up. One of the men followed her, dragged her into the bushes and raped her—"My first time," the now elderly recluse told Stenn, leaving her with memories she had to keep blocked from consciousness for decades.
It took Stenn two years to persuade her to talk. She hung up on him time after time. She didn't want to remember. She'd never told her daughter or her grandchildren. Four brief marriages, none of them happy, and a life damaged beyond repair finally persuaded her to tell Stenn the story. She'd gone to court in 1937, he learned, hoping for justice and her mother's support, but found neither. The case was thrown out and erased from history, along with Patrician Douglas.
Not surprisingly, Stenn found at least one other case, Eloise Spann, also raped at that same MGM party. Her story was even more tragic. A few years later, she hung herself.
One "girl" had sensed the danger and told an MGM executive, "Get me out of here," which he did. But there was no available public transportation, and most of the "girls" were too young and too hopeful to recognize that they were being offered up as sacrifices.
"Anything you want…"
We are still in the thick of it, and not only in Hollywood. The hidden destruction of women's lives goes on.
But watch out! For every revelation, like Stenn's brave "Girl 27″—which he financed himself and which is available, years later, on Netflix—there is a half-buried response, and it's not encouraging. As a smart man friend remarked, "Well, you know, all these cases are different. You can't paint with a broad brush." He was urging moderation, discrimination.
The details differ, yes, but the core truth is always the same. As Patricia Douglas' rapist told her, "I want to destroy you." And he nearly succeeded.
So the backlash will begin, or is already beginning. You'll hear it in those measured, intelligent comments. And The New York Times, as so often leading the way, called its lead editorial on July 29, "The Racism Behind Women's Suffrage," warning against the "commemorations that will unfold all across the United States around the centennial of the 19th Amendment," two years from now.
I wish. It may well pass in near silence.
The Times editorial calls out Elizabeth Cady Stanton, "the campaign's principle philosopher" (a title Stanton, who worked with Susan B. Anthony, would never have claimed) as "a classic liberal racist" who feared that extending the vote to black men would degrade white women. Stanton can, of course, be roundly criticized for sharing in her period's racism but it might be worth including the context: determined to get the vote for white women, Stanton refused to take the risk of extending the franchise to African-American men.
And since, as far as I know, this is The Times' only reference to the anniversary of suffrage, it's negativity raises a question: why now? And where is the context?
And, in a criticism that goes far back, the editorial states that the Amendment "covered the needs of middle-class white women quite nicely" while ignoring the needs of African-American women in the South. It is perhaps absurd to assume that the Amendment could have been passed had these women been included, and equally absurd to posit that extending suffrage to one group of women had no effect on others. A successful change shows us all that it can be done.
"Middle-class white women" have long been an easy target for the patriarchy. When Betty Friedan's groundbreaking book, The Feminine Mystique was published in 1963, reviews attempted to discredit it as applying only to white middle-class women. But the book was revolutionary in recognizing that "the problem that has no name" is not alleviated by class status, money, or professionalism.
In certain situations, all young women are exposed to assault and rape, as they have always been. Patricia Douglas and Eloise Spann, whose search for justice was nullified and whose stories were erased, stand for all of us.
"I don't want them to think I'm a dirty woman," an ancient Patricia Douglas told David Stenn.
Good luck, Sisters. The backlash when it comes will soil a lot of us.

The ETFs market is a huge reflection of crowd psychology playing over two basic human emotions; greed and fear. Professional ETF traders understand this, and rather than relying on greed and fear, they keenly follow the mood of the market as informed by technical analysis and/or candlestick patterns.
Technical analysis of any price action is done through indicators which derive their strength from past price actions. Indicators are powerful tools for predicting market trend, market momentum, volatility, stop-loss targets, and more. Technical indicators are valid for all tradable instrument including individual stocks, indexes and ETFs.
In theory, following any one indicator can be lucrative but it's coupled with an equally high risk of loss. As such, in real life situations, it's best to make trades based on holistic analysis using multiple indicators. You should look at points "where all the stars are aligned" and where every, or at least most of the indicators, predict the same outcome. For example, look at the RSI, Bollinger Bands, Keltner Channel, different moving averages, Stochastics, and several other indicators before making a trade.
In this chapter, we are going to look at the best performing indicators for ETFs; indicators that give the highest success ratio.
You can use any type of candlestick to go with the following indicators, but we recommend using Heikin-Ashi Candlesticks, as the charts are smoother and less noisy compared with normal candlesticks. Even better, almost all modern trading platforms have the option of Heikin-Ashi Candlesticks.
1. Moving Average- The Market is a Dance of Moving Averages
One of the most important concepts in the Dow's Theory is moving averages which depict the entire history of an ETF. Moving Average is a good compass for market trends and a good basis of establishing support/resistance levels. There are two types of Moving Averages; Simple and Exponential moving averages.
Traders who prefer longer period trades should go for simple moving average and high-frequency scalpers and quick traders should use the exponential moving average.
The success ratio of moving average as a sole indicator is over 60%, and when combined with other indicators, it becomes one of the most powerful and core indicators of any trading strategy, yielding up to 90% success rate. Most trading platforms offer Simple Moving Average (SMA) and Exponential Moving Average (EMA) for different time periods like 5m, 15m, 30m, 1 hr., 1 day, 1 week, 1 month, etc.
Depending on your trade's time frame, you should choose three different moving averages. Moving averages of different time frames tend to converge and diverge according to the market trends. The point where two moving averages meet is the point where you should execute your trades.
Typically, go long once you see a MA of lower time frame "crossing over" a MA of higher time frame. It means that the stock/index/fund is in a positive momentum or is simply bullish. Take a short position if the reverse happens. Moving Averages, if used with right combinations, can predict the broad market trend accurately.
Let's take a closer look at a simple example of how moving average can predict a price action.
Illustration 1:
The chart below shows a classic example of a profitable trade, using the concept of moving average. The ETF we chose was SPDR S&P 500 ETF Trust (NYSEARCA: SPY), over a weekly period. The red line represents the 20-day Simple Moving Average (20 SMA) and the green line represents the 50-day Simple Moving Average (50 SMA).
We see an extended period of consolidation from the mid-2015 to the beginning of 2016, where the 50 SMA was above the 20 SMA. However, there is a strong 20 SMA crossover at 210 level. Since this is a weekly chart, the indication is a strong one, and this is evinced by the subsequent price rise towards 240 levels, with a final high of 245 giving a neat and clean 14% return.
If you are a skeptical trader and want to be sure before executing the trade, look at the MACD, which is making higher highs and a positive divergence after the SMA crossover. That is a high probability uptrend that you can bet on.
Here is a similar example, but for a downtrend, where you can earn money by going short. The red line is 20 SMA, which is crossed over by the bigger 50 SMA. Notice that the crossover takes place at 140 level and during a negative divergence (-0.84) between the MACD and EMA. This signals that the bears are in control, and it's a powerful sell sign.
Moving Averages can also be used as reliable resistance and support levels. Resistance levels are points which act as a strong bearish wall, while support is the line which provides good "bouncing" points for the a given price. For example, in the above chart, the 20 SMA (the red line) acts as a strong resistance for the downtrend. Notice that, whenever the price touches or tries to pierce the 20 SMA, it intensifies the downtrend. This can be used by short time traders to place profitable shorts. Other than the 20-50 Moving Average combination, you can also use the 50-200 SMA to get a broader perspective into the ETF.
2. RSI – Locating the Greed and Fear.
The two most fundamental forces that control the market is greed and fear. It is a well-known saying that "bulls make money, bears make money, pigs get slaughtered", personifying pigs with greed. The best way to quantify fear and greed is to use oscillators indicators, like the RSI (Relative Strength Index). Note that Relative Strength Index is one of the most important and handy indicators, especially for swing traders. It is a momentum oscillator and is used to verify the momentum of a trend.
The concept of RSI is simple to understand and easy to apply. RSI, like most oscillator indicators, is a band which indicates overbought and oversold conditions in a price movement.
The RSI indicator moves like a pendulum, swinging between the two extremes of overbought and oversold conditions. The actual level is determined by the technical set-up, but usually, if RSI crosses over 80, it creates an overbought situation while any level lower than 20 becomes an oversold situation. The more it deviates from these extremes, the greater is the tendency to revert to the mean position. In any trade, the RSI value can't move lower than 0 or higher than 100.
The logical course of action is to sell when RSI value increases beyond 80 (overbought), and buy when RSI falls below 20 (oversold). Now there is no compulsion for the RSI to go beyond 20/80 to be justified as oversold or overbought. It has to be combined with a trend indicator and candlestick patterns.
Let's look at an example.
For simplicity, we will not complicate the chart with other indicators, but it's advisable to take multiple indicators into account before making a trade.
Below is an iShares MSCI Emerging Markets ETF chart, with a 14-day RSI indicator, which is the last column. Notice that the given setup has a RSI band between 88.43-15.79, i.e. the extremes which indicate it's specific oversold and overbought conditions.
Notice the first dip in RSI happens somewhere around September 2015, when the price was $550 and RSI was 15.79. This indicates a strong oversold condition and professional traders would take a long position at this level.
The price goes to $600 a share and then moves back to $550, but the RSI value is locked at 33. This means that there is a potential uptrend and the stock still has an inner momentum. The momentum is finally confirmed with the SMA crossover in mid-2016 after which the price of the ETF goes off to $800, which is a comfortable 30% return.
Now, notice that once the trend is confirmed by the SMA crossover, the RSI never went beyond 50 in the year 2016. This indicates the presence of a strong bullish momentum and you can look to buy into the dips. Again, you can safely use the 20 SMA (the red line) as a strong resistance for buying into the momentum.
Here is another example of RSI, where it locates an overbought condition in the daily chart of iShares MSCI Germany ETF. The 14-day period RSI is used.
Notice that the RSI has peaked itself in January 2017, and is somewhat consolidating at the $580-$570 levels. With a number of Doji candlestick patterns appearing in the consolidation phase, after an uptrend, it clearly indicates a period of indecisiveness in an overbought area. This is where a smart trader would take a short position. The price eventually reaches 520 within 2 months, giving off a 12% profit over a short period of time.
RSI can be used for a smaller time frame, even for hourly traders. However, it is wise to check on the general RSI value before trading within specific time frames. For example, if you want to trade within the hourly chart, you should be aware of the RSI value on the daily chart. The RSI indicator for smaller time frames (like 1m, 3m, 5m) can be fickle and sometimes oscillate too sharply. You can then use a 21 or higher period RSI to smoothen the oscillation frequency.
3. Fibonacci Retracement- What Goes Up, Must Come Down.
One of the fundamental characteristics of any ETF/index/stock is the bearish and bullish forces, which create a zig zag pattern in the charts. No stock price ever goes on increasing and no stock price can always remain in a downtrend. Many swing traders take advantage of this to execute quick trades, with well-defined stop-losses.
In any trend, the momentum first increases and reaches a peak from where it collapses, taking the price of an ETF down to a certain level, before reverting to its original trend. Hence, this requires a specific stop loss, which is provided by the Fibonacci Retracement indicator. These pullbacks, which are known as retracements, are temporary and provide nice opportunities for quick traders to make profits in overbought/oversold conditions, and a chance for momentum traders to exploit the general trend.
According to the Fibonacci Retracement theory, any trend will have strong resistance/support at 23.6%, 38.2%, 50%, 61.8% and 100% of a fully established trend. The overall trading strategy is formed by looking at these consecutive support/resistance levels. For example, if an ETF is making higher highs and higher lows, then it is in an uptrend, and generally, the resistances become the new support bases.
Below is a pictorial representation of this type of movement. The first movement marked in green is a clear bull run, the blue part is a consolidation phase, and the red part depicts a typical bearish grip.
This movement is quantified by the Fibonacci Retracement in strong trends, which predicts strong reversal tendencies at the 5 fundamental levels/ratios; 23.6%, 38.2%, 50%, 61.8% and 100% of a price movement.
Here is an example of Fibonacci Retracement (FR), appearing on a daily chart of FXG, a consumer staples ETF.
The Fibonacci Retracement is constructed using two extreme points, one is the starting point of a trend and the other is the peak of a trend. Both points are further verified by candlestick patterns and other technical indicators. In the following example, we take the $21 as the lower level of the Fibonacci Retracement and $25 as the upper.
After achieving a $4 rise, over a $20 base price (20% increase), from February to June, we see the appearance of an Evening Star Doji on June 1. This indicates a clear loss of momentum and a signal that the bears have taken over the market. The price falls off through $1, which is a 1/4th increase. This corresponds to an approx 23.6% fall from the first phase of the trend. Once you see this fall, you know that this level becomes the new resistance and price will be forced to bounce off this level.
Professional traders will use this dip to go long again at $23.65 and experience the next leg of the bull run. This will actually continue off till the next Fibonacci level of 38.2%, which will become a temporary resistance and then change into a support, with further uptrend.
This is similarly true for a downtrend, when the price springs up temporarily before continuing the bearish run.
Almost all trading platforms have the Fibonacci Retracement and it can be used by professional players for scalping a trend for quick profits or entering a fresh position at such temporary retracements. This is also a good indicator to analyze the shifting resistance and support bands, which can help us determine our target and stop loss.
4. Bollinger Bands: The Mean and the two Deviations.
Bollinger Bands is a classic indicator, developed by an astute trader, John Bollinger. He devised a simple way of tracking the deviations from a particular moving average, usually a simple moving average, by creating a parallel running bandwidth. The bandwidth encompasses the "highness" and "lowness" of a price action and is a good measure of volatility.
Bollinger Bands consists of a main N-period Moving Average, which is the middle line and two standard deviations, forming the upper and lower limits of the bandwidth. The way these bands are pierced can tell a lot about the underlying forces.
Let's take a look at a natural piercing of the 10-day Bollinger Bands, through a daily chart. In the given figure, the middle blue line is actually the 10-day SMA, the green line represents the upper deviation (Upper Band) and the red line represents the lower deviation (Lower Band).
Notice that, at the end of January 2017, there is an unusual expansion of the Bollinger bands. The candlestick pieces into the upper band with a strong but gradual uptrend, taking the price from $80 to $120. The stronger the piercing, the stronger is the inner momentum and volatility in the ETF. Once the price consolidates to a new level, the Bollinger bands constrict itself to the mean position.
Bollinger bands are also used by swing traders to take advantage of sudden price movements. Since the price always tends to revert to the mean position after a sudden deviation, some traders immediately revert the Bollinger trend to make quick scalping trades.
In the above diagram, when the price starts to drop during February and March, the Bollinger bands again expand and the candlesticks touch the Lower deviation band (red line). We can also see a strong MACD crossover at the end of February, signaling a losing momentum.
There is an unexceptional spike in the Average Volume indicator, signaling a strong bear run, which eventually brings the price down to $80.
As a golden rule while following Bollinger Bands, always buy if there is a gradual expansion towards the upper band and sell once there is a strong deviation from the mean band towards the lower band.
5. VIX Index- Only Thing We Have to Fear Is Fear Itself.
VIX is a 30-day volatility index, which is also known as the Fear Index. It is not available for individual stocks but assumes prime importance in the technical analysis of ETFs, currencies, options, and other indexes. VIX is basically the volatility index of Chicago Board Options Exchange (CBOE), the world's largest exchange. It measures the probabilistic volatility of the S&P 500 Index options and is one of the best ways to get an idea of the general market direction. VIX is usually inversely proportional to the S&P 500 index and consequently all the linked ETFs.
Below is a VIX vs. S&P 500 chart, where you can see the inverse correlation between the two.
The VIX indicator is measured as a percentage, which predicts how the market will go based on its current activity. Rapid changes in the market forces will trigger a rise in the VIX indicator, which can signal zones of danger to avoid. The VIX indicator particularly becomes very active, achieving 70-80%, before and during a period of burst and reverts towards 10-20% during periods of boom.
Most of the time, the VIX indicator tends to stay below the threshold value of 20%, which indicates normal market activity. Any sharp spike in activity/volatility is reflected by an increased VIX, which sharply reverts back to the original. This phenomenon can be seen in the above graph, which shows a sudden spike just before the 2008 financial meltdown when the VIX touched a record 82%. Since then, the VIX experienced momentary bursts, notably during a 10% movement in the S&P 500 index (2010-2011).
A decreasing VIX, however, indicates a rising market for S&P 500 ETFs. The market is on the rise since 2009, during which the VIX reverted back to 20-10 % levels. You should keep an eye on the VIX indicator if you are holding any long-term positions and want to limit losses during unforeseeable events.
How to Use the Indications in Unison.
Indicators are like sticks, which can break if it stands alone but becomes powerful when many are bundled and used in unison. The key to successful trading, therefore, boils down to harmonizing the various signals from different indicators into a comprehensive picture. This does require some experience to actualize during live trading sessions, but finding common ground between various indicators is the bedrock of successful trading.
The chart we will be using is a recent 30-mins chart for Power Shares QQQ Trust, Series 1 (ETF), and we are going to follow the ETF for a week and look at points where we can enter profitable trades based on the indicators mentioned above. The details of the indicators used in this trade are.
This is the first chart, where we confirm the formation of a trend through the 20 days (red line), 50 days (green line) and 200 days (pink line). The 200 day SMA overtook the 50 day SMA, which signals a potential bear grip in the medium term. The 50 day SMA also closed above the 20 day SMA, which confirms a clear downtrend in the short term. We can also see that the ETF is using the 50 day SMA as a resistance to this downtrend. As this is a strong resistance, we can sell whenever we see the stock price hits the 50 SMA (Wednesday, 28 June ending, Monday July 3 beginning), once the downtrend is established.
At this point, we remove the SMAs from our chart and introduce the 10 period Bollinger band into the chart, which now looks like this.
Notice that the Bollinger band was tight and compressed from June 20 to June 23, which signals a period of low volatility and overall consolidation. Once the market opened on June 26th, you can see a spinning top Doji formation at a 30 mins level. The Bollinger Bands are starting to open up, with the candlesticks piercing the lower band. At the same time, you can see the RSI value peaking at 80 levels and MACD showing a negative divergence of -0.12, signaling a new bearish trend. This is a point where three powerful indicators point to a single thing and it can be a strong signal to sell at this point. We can take a short position here and draw a Fibonacci retracement, which would naturally layout 140, 138, 136, 134 (rounded off) as the support and resistances for the downtrend. This is exactly what the price action does, as it reverts off to 138 on Tuesday June 27. On Wednesday June 28, the price of the ETF starts off at 138, which is a temporary support. It rises but could not breach its earlier resistance of 140, which has now also become the 50 SMA-downtrend-resistance. This signals an immediate selloff in the ETF.
On Thursday June 29, many interesting things happen, which require a detailed look.
Notice, there is a strong volume growth in the opening hours on Thursday June 29th. This represent a bearish volatility, as the RSI value at 82 is suggesting an overbought condition. This is another lucrative point to sell the ETF as "all the stars are harmoniously aligned", and we can expect the price to move down towards 36 and then towards 34. Moreover, there is a MACD divergence happening on Monday July 3, which again confirms a downtrend.

This is one of the most frequently asked questions our plastic surgeons receive during the consultation. Many women compare themselves with others. Here we show why it is not advisable to make such comparisons. Every person is unique.
An example is these two women below, who have undergone breast augmentation. The women on the left has an implant size of 410 grams and the other has an implant size of 245 grams, but when we look at the pictures, they seem to be the same size. We have even taken a picture only of the specific implants that were used, and there one can see a distinct difference. Or?
In order to select the right size, the surgeon takes into consideration your prerequisites and your desires. With the help of our 3D simulation, you can see how the various sizes and models would look on you – before your operation. 3D simulation is very much appreciated by our patients, where we together create a joint picture of the expected results. For us, it is extremely important that the patient feels secure about what is going to happen and also has a complete understanding of the results that can be expected.
Read more about breast augmentation here. You can also view before and after photos of people who have had the surgery.

The pipeline system is used since the 18th Century for commercial activities. The pipelines are considered to be the safest, reliable and efficient means of transporting large quantities of crude oil, natural gas, chemicals, and water across nations. Pipeline installations are critical infrastructure of high importance and value, and a threat to it can have a significant effect on meeting the needs of people, organizations and can cause harm to the environment.
The Middle East and Africa pipeline security market is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 12.3% in the forecast period 2016 - 2021. To deal with rising security threats in the form of terrorist attacks, sabotage, illegal tapping, and cyber-attacks, governments across the world are working towards formulating and implementing strategies to keep the pipelines safe from these threats. Consequently, it is essential for organizations to deploy comprehensive solutions maintaining the requirements of the government compliance, policies and regulations. Manual inspection or presence of armed guards is not a solution for pipelines running in thousands of kilometers as most of the pipeline network is buried underground.
Advanced technologies and solutions like SCADA, aqua-based systems, DAS (Distributed Acoustic Sensing), unmanned aerial vehicles, and video surveillance have become a necessity to secure the pipelines. The Middle East and Africa pipeline security market is segmented based on the following criteria: products (natural gas, crude oil, hazardous liquid pipelines/chemicals, water and others), technology and solutions (unmanned aerial systems, perimeter security/intruder detection, electro-optic systems, ground sensors, PIG location monitoring, sub-aqua systems, video surveillance, control systems and others) and countries (UAE, Saudi Arabia, Iran and others).
The market study has listed a few major market players and their growth strategies & market shares. The key global market players include Alstom, ABB, Schneider Electric, Honeywell, Siemens, Thales Group, GE, Bae Systems, Esri, Huawei, Sightlogix, Skywave, Future Fibre Technologies and Senstar.
The Middle East and Africa pipeline security market is majorly driven by increased spending by oil and gas companies for reliable protected networks. Increased demand for natural gas and the upgradation of refineries, drilling sites are further fuelling the market growth. Rising political instability in the Middle East regions drives the pipeline security market in order to protect the pipeline networks.
Distributed site locations is a key market restraint since the implementation of an integrated security solution involves a lot of complications with the scattered network locations. High implementation and maintenance costs are another factor hindering the market growth.
Key deliverables of the study
- Market definition of the Middle East and Africa pipeline security in the market along with market drivers and restraints.
- Market segmentation and the corresponding market share analysis.
- Country-specific competitive market analysis of the Middle East and Africa pipeline security.

Week 52 – The last blog post of the year, and also the last one before taking a break from blogging.
My last picture is one I took this week with my favorite camera Fujifilm X-T2 and vintage lens Pentacon 50 mm f1.8
I'll continue to post pictures on Instagram (link on top) – Hope to see you there! 🙂
And last but not least: Happy New Year!
It's week 45, but I just took this "summer-looking" image! This picture was taken using a Helios-44 lens. Helios is probably the most famous vintage lens there is; it was produced in the old Soviet Union in 1958-1992 (my copy is from 1982) and is one of most mass produced lenses in the world. It comes in several variants. The version I have ("M") is supposedly the worst one, but I'm very pleased with it. It's built in solid metal, focuses down to 0.5 m, and has a mag ratio of 1:6:5 at the closest focus point. I bought it cheap (FYI – the average price in October 2018 was only $32) including an M42 adapter to fit in on my Fuji.
In case you're interested, there's a weekly podcast called "The Classic Lenses Podcast" and there's an entire episode dedicated to the Helios-44 here
It's been a sunny but very cold weekend here in Amsterdam! Autumn is really here now; it was above 25° Celcius and since yesterday it's only 7° (and 3° at night).
All the leaves are brown… ♬♪♫ …Not! Because we have a sunny October that still feels a bit like summer!
On the other hand: Week 42 now = Only 10 weeks left this year!
Pictures taken with Fuji X-T2 camera and Pentax-A 50 mm lens.
The maximum soap bubble bokeh I could get with the little Pentax-a lens 😉 Have a nice sunny Sunday everyone!
This changing season ~ Photos made with my Fuji X-T2 and a Pentax-a 50mm lens I found in my parent's storage, it's from the late 80's I think. It's a very nice and compact little lens; it's built in metal but only weights 145 grams. I love the bubbly bokeh when shot wide at f2 🙂
Mushroom season is here! Here are some pictures taken with my Fuji X-T2 camera and vintage lens Pentacon 50 mm 🙂
Summer's coming to an end… But there are still some brave flowers shining bright
Please follow me on Instagram, where I'm posting one picture every day — Fuji camera & various vintage lenses 🙂
Three pictures from Sweden 🙂 Taken last weekend with my Fuji X-T2 camera and vintage lens Pentacon 50 mm.
I've also opened an Instagram account: @caleeamsterdam ❤
New gear! 🙂 Test shots!
I got another vintage lens: Pentacon 135 2.8. It's a telephoto lens made in GDR (East Germany), I found one in mint condition and got it super cheap.
There are two versions of this lens, and I got the second version which is inferior to the first as it only has 6 blades and the diaphragm can close to f/22 (the first version has 15 blades and can close to f/32), but still a very nice and sharp lens which is fun to use. The minimum focusing distance is 170 cm, something that will take a bit getting used to for me, especially since I've mainly shot with a 60 mm macro lens the past year. Anyway, today I went for a little walk and took some first test shots with my new (although it's older than me) lens. It can of course only be used in full manual mode, but the focus ring is smooth and easy to use so it's not really a problem I think.

I see people around me all day and I think I understand them because we are sharing this same experience. We have this hardship in common, this isolation, this danger, this lonliness, a longing for friends and family half a world a way. Because our paths have intersected at this austere place at this particular time, I think I have an understanding of those around me. We wear the same uniform. We come from the same country. We are here for the same reason. I know you don't I?
We lost a soldier Sunday night to, what was possibly, a self-inflicted gunshot wound. We received the news in the early hours of Monday morning and we waited in numbness and shock for the details to filter in.
It's the details that we crave because it's what we use to paint the picture, it's how we try to find the answers. We start at the end of his journey and work our way back drawing in the details to the map that brought him here as best we can, but we only share the route so far, there are never enough details. I need a better map.
While I know the path that brought me to this place, it's pitfalls and tortuous hills, I also know that I am the only person who has taken that exact route here. Why then do I insist on measuring his journey to this place by the standard of my path? Why then, if I know this, do I judge his strength and stamina, his skill and endurance, by a simple comparison to my own? I need a better map.
I need to know the hills that he climbed that brought him to the place we met. I need to know if the rivers that he had to cross sapped his strength, or if it was just a pitfall that he encountered while on the path alone that night. The map needs more details, a higher resolution.
I know the details that I seek will give me the answers. I need a higher resolution to draw the map to the scale I need. It will have be 1:1, a life-size map, in 3 dimensions and a passage through time. I will have to carry his body armor and ruck-sack up the same grades, and over the same obstacles. I will have to know which parts he walked alone through and where he was carried or I will be tempted to just fill in the blank spots from the map of my own journey. I need a better map.
I need a map of his soul. I need to know what he believed in and from what sources he drew his strength. I need to know if his character was flawed or perhaps his spirit broken by brute force and ignorance. If I have this map maybe I won't shoulder the responsibility or lay the blame at someone else's feet. With this resolution maybe I won't draw from the generalities of my own narrow path, a generic reason which I can wrap around this horror then tuck it away. Yes, I need a better map
Maybe the map I need though isn't of his soul, but of mine. I will never be able to live his life for him, but I can chart the course of mine. I can choose the star to guide me, and use the maps of others before me to plot my course. I can draw from the experience of my journey so far, including the path we shared, to help me through the perils ahead. Even then though, the map might not be enough, I will probably still need help.
I'll need somone to walk with me. Someone to carry the light when it gets too dark or take some of the burden when it gets too heavy. Thankfully, I already have that. Pam has shined more light on my path and carried more of my burden than I can ever express in words. She needs to know. I need to tell her more, show her more; more detail, higher resolution. I hope I can draw her a better map.

"He is that fallen lance that lies as hurled,
That lies unlifted now, come dew, come rust,
But still lies pointed as it ploughed the dust.
If we who sight along it round the world,
See nothing worthy to have been its mark,
It is because like men we look too near,
Forgetting that as fitted to the sphere,
Our missiles always make too short an arc.
They fall, they rip the grass, they intersect
The curve of earth, and striking, break their own;
They make us cringe for metal-point on stone.
But this we know, the obstacle that checked
And tripped the body, shot the spirit on
Further than target ever showed or shone".

You just did tell her. May I share something I found that may help you and your men.
Soldier's Tears
As I prepared myself to leave
I didn't know just why
my love came to me
with tears falling from her eyes
and as she spoke
her voice broke
she whispered while she cried
My love told me
you have no feeling
because you never cry
The words hurt deep
into my heart
as I asked the question why
My own answer
came to me
by shock
or maybe surprise
It's because angels cry for me
their tears are the stars in the sky
stars run down their cheeks
and cause a twinkle to the eye
Stars bunch together
like tears
and fall as rain from the sky
they hurry to the streams
only angels know why
they whisper the answer
to my ear
if I only understood why
it has to do with feeling
not tears from the eye
It is the angels that cry for me
is that the reason why
So that's why I never cry
with what I've seen in this land
far from the sky
A friend's life falls before me
I have to ask the question why
this bitter war tares the tears
right from my eyes
it rips deep inside of me
so my angels have to cry
They count their tears by the millions
rush to fill the skies
they fall as showers to the earth
as I watch and wonder why
I watch as innocent children suffer
while they lay down and cry
I feel their tears as if they were mine
if I knew their reason why
Feelings aren't logical
so my eyes remain dry
so I pray for the angels
to fill the stars in the sky
The hot desert wind blows
and sand hits my eyes
I squint a try to see
knowing they're dry
Again I ask the question
why can't I cry
Seat runs down my back
as I see the stars
from the sky dark night
knowing that somewhere
cool rain fills the sky
As I see the children suffer
the pain rips deep inside
I wish for rain to hit my face
and run down my cheeks
only I know why
Because angels cry for me
their tears are the stars in the sky
they run together as tear drops
and fall like rain from the sky
I hope they hit my face
and run like tears from my eye
the war rips on and many more will cry
Lonely soldiers face
tomorrow and days quickly
go by you can see it in their
faces their need to cry
but their tears are safe in the
heavens and only the angels
know just why
When I ask angels their
secret as to why they
whisper the answer with a sweat breath
like rain from the sky
It's not the tears that matter
it's how you feel inside
So I keep the words angels
whispered lock it deep inside
angels have the answers
as secrets they keep close by
My tears you'll see forever
as stars in the sky and as
rain that falls from the heaven
as showers fill the sky.

God Bless and be with you and you fellow troops. May he comfort you now in your time of pain. It is not your fault you fellow soldier died. There was nothing you or the rest of you could have done to prevent what he did. He may have brought baggage with him that maybe he wasn't even aware of. He may have carried some secret pain or just saw more than he could contain. Do not look back on him as a failure or that you failed. He was neither a coward as some will say or a man who just gave up. He just needed to be with God at this time. He chose the only path he could see at this point in time in his life. And, yes, though I am a Catholic, I believe he is with God. God is taking away his pain.
In another time, or another place, maybe someone could have helped him through this. But know that you all did what you could. For whatever reason he couldn't ask for help. Later, I would seggest you send his family a copy of that beautiful poem you wrote to help them believe that they too did all they could ans someone else cared about him.
If you ever need a f riend to talk to email me or post my blog. I'm an "older" goat so I'm not after your "bones!!" [lol]

BJP begins process to choose Ktk CMs successor
According to top BJP sources, Yeddyurappa will tender his resignation tomorrow afternoon, keeping his word on Thursday that he would step down on July 31 following the party directive in the wake of his indictment in the Lokayukta report on illegal mining scam.
Senior BJP leaders Arun Jaitley, Rajnath Singh and M Venkaiah Naidu began the consultation process to break the logjam.
Earlier in the day, Yeddyurappa met Jaitley and Singh, who have been exerting pressure on him to quit to pave the way for smooth election of a successor.
Throwing up signs of rebellion, Yeddyurappa had mobilised his loyalist MLAs and ministers who insisted on his continuance, putting the central leadership in a quandry.
Yeddyurappa wants the successor to be of his choice and is insisting on the state unit party president`s post for him, party sources said.
BJP national general secretary Ananth Kumar, a known bete noire of Yeddyurappa, is emerging as the top contender for the Chief Minister`s post, while the names of senior minister V S Acharya and party MP Sadananda Gowda is also doing the rounds.
Karnataka BJP president K S Eshwarappa expressed strong displeasure over the criticism of Lokayukta report by Yeddyurappa loyalists — ministers V Somanna and M P Renukacharya, and Lok Sabha member D B Chandre Gowda.
Eshwarappa also stressed that nobody can question the decision of BJP Parliamentary Board, which asked Yeddyurappa to resign.

The shadows of the cast walking behind the translucent sheet on set offered an ominous presence, which set the tone for the Qasimi SS18 presentation. With looks of intent explorers, models stormed onto the stage in a dusty colour palette wearing loose silhouettes, making us feel as if we were in a desert of nylon. "Yearning for simpler times in response to today's bombardment of information and technology" Qasimi's 'FREEFALL' collection was inspired by the Boudin tribes of the Middle East. The desert dwellers were clad in sun-baked hues of dusty pinks, yellows, oranges and khaki.
Using modern military parachute fabrics, the collection was a comfortable uniform that fused together traditional craftsmanship with modern tech. There were ruched detailing, drawstrings, two-way zips and pockets with an abundance of space. Cargo pants, lightweight bomber jackets and drawstring sacks were the accessory, which make us think that this is just as practical for the average London commuter as well as the nomadic tribes recalled in this presentation.

A foster family was also a chance to study social interaction skills. As everybody is aware of, children behave in a different way round strangers than they do their household. Actually, many educated folks and church officers inspired fostering because they mentioned that oldsters, in their love for their children, were too weak to boost children properly. Parents might be gentle and not self-discipline a child as they should. If a child didn't be taught humility and obedience from dad and mom, then it was set up to fail as an adult, and perhaps even to go to hell for its sins.

February 8, 1999, Section B, Page 8Buy Reprints
Indrani, a distinguished dancer who familiarized Americans with several styles of India's classical dance as a performer and teacher, died on Friday in Beekman Downtown Hospital in Manhattan. She was 68 and lived in Manhattan.
The cause was a stroke, her daughter, Sukanya Wicks, said.
Indrani was an artist of international repute and often appeared before heads of state in her native India and abroad. But she also became a highly respected figure in the dance world of New York after her debut there in 1960. The hallmark of her dancing, a blend of dramatic vibrancy and technical refinement, carried over to her teaching at American colleges and festivals.
Although she had a home in New Delhi until recently, she spent most of the last two decades in the United States, where she toured extensively. In 1961, Indrani was the first dancer presented on a national tour by the Asia Society. She had been on the faculty of the Juilliard School since 1976.
''Indrani was an exquisite dancer, a great teacher and a true rasika, in the largest spirit of that word, meaning a lover of the arts,'' Rachel Cooper of the Asia Society said yesterday. Ms. Cooper, associate director of the society's performing arts and public programs, also praised Indrani's role as a producer of concerts in New York by younger Indian dancers. She said the society had planned to give Indrani a lifetime achievement award. ''The event will now be a memorial as well,'' Ms. Cooper said.
Unlike many Indian dancers of her generation, Indrani did not specialize in a single school of classical dance but studied with leading gurus in India to master the contrasting styles of Bharata Natyam, Kuchipudi, Mohini Attam and Orissi.
In the 1950's, Indrani was the first professional dancer to perform Orissi onstage; Orissi, then a neglected dance form, was inspired by temple sculpture in the state of Orissa, in eastern India. Indrani was instrumental in the revival of Orissi, introducing it to audiences in India by touring widely there and doing the same abroad when she performed as a soloist or with her ensemble of musicians and dancers.
In championing rarely seen or forgotten classical dance forms, Indrani followed naturally in the footsteps of her mother, Ragini Devi, an American-born dancer who was internationally known for her leading role in the revival of classical dance in India in the 1930's.
As Esther Sherman in Petoskey, Mich., the future Ragini Devi was already in love with Indian dance when she met Ramlal Bajpai in Minneapolis. After she married Bajpai, an Indian scientist and activist for Indian independence, she traveled to India to study dance in 1930. Their daughter, Indrani, was born that year in Madras. In her book ''Dance Dialects of India,'' Ragini Devi described how she would take the infant Indrani on her own visits to gurus. As a dancer, Indrani was her ''alter ego,'' Ragini Devi wrote. ''Her dance career is a continuation of mine.''
Ragini Devi, who died in 1982, made her last stage appearance at a memorable concert in 1979 at New York University. She was joined by Sukanya, Indrani's daughter and also a dancer, as well as Indrani. The vivacity of all three generations came into play.
Indrani's playfulness and gaiety at that performance were typical of her vivid personality. In the dramatic Kuchipudi solos, Indrani's quick shifts in characterization were always subtle and deep.
Having started at age 5 in her mother's company, she was steeped in the content of classical dance. As a professional, she began with Bharata Natyam, where she could display the rhythmic complexity of her footwork. But mime within this style and in others allowed her to exhibit her brilliant dramatic gifts.
The Indian Government sponsored Indrani's tours. Her warmth and artistry, as well as the beauty of her costumes and presentations, made her a perfect choice. In 1961 she performed for President John F. Kennedy and Prime Minister Jawaharlal Nehru during Nehru's official visit to Washington. Indrani received the Indian Government's national award, Padma Shri, and the Sangeet Natak Akadami Award in the performing arts.
Indrani married Habib Rahman, who was named India's chief architect and who died in 1995. In addition to her daughter, of Orr's Island, Me., she is survived by her son, Ram Rahman, of New Delhi, and two grandsons, Wardreath Wicks of Orr's Island, and Habib Wicks of New York City.

Weight loss on Alevere Therapy is predictable so you will know how much weight you are expected to lose each week and how long it should take you to reach your target weight.
For some reason I have been getting lots of interest lately in the Metabolic Balance weight loss programme. These spikes of interest are usually down to some type of celebrity endorsement. Sam Smith and Boy George have both helped to raise the profile of the programme in the past. I am not sure quite sure who is behind it this time around, but I will put money on it some high profile person has attributed their dramatic weight loss to the Metabolic Balance.
