Will Turkey Strike Gold?
Gold is just one of the many metals existing naturally on the earth's outer layer; however, without a doubt, it has always been the most cherished one. Men first started using gold coins in 550 BC in Lydia, a province of modern-day Turkey, under King Croesus, and these coins quickly became an accepted payment medium for merchants and mercenary soldiers around the Mediterranean. Since then, and for 2500 years, men never stopped respecting gold. Yes, due to its physical properties, it is the perfect material to create beautiful jewelry. But more important than that are its scarcity and desirability. These are what made gold a store of value. A good one? That's open to discussion. Someone once said, "Back in Shakespeare's time, an ounce of gold could buy you a good suit. Today an ounce of gold still just buys you a good suit!"
All the gold that has been mined throughout human history is still in existence today; this precious metal has always been recycled. As an industry expert puts it, "If you have a gold watch, some of the gold in it could have been mined by Romans 2000 years ago." When this is the case, one might wonder how much gold exists above ground in the world today. If all the above-ground gold in the world, which is 171 thousand metric tons, were melted, it actually would fit into a cube with sides of only 20 meters. Not that big, right? However, that cube, with today's gold price of $1,150 per ounce, would be worth $7 trillion, equal to around 9% the world's GDP.
There are countries in the world, like India and Turkey, which are relatively more fascinated with the beauty of this yellow metal. Following India, Turkey is the world's second-largest producer of gold jewelry. If you've ever been to Istanbul's Grand Bazaar, you know what I am saying. But it's not only about the beauty of it. The massive inflation issues in Turkey until 2002 created a strong tradition of "trusting more in gold," a highly liquid investment that hedges you against not only inflation but also the weakness of the currency. Even though the country has been in a single-digit inflation era since 2004, the popularity of gold investment remains.
Even though Turkey is such a big user of gold, the country itself never produced gold until 2001. Its own gold was never taken above ground. Rather it imported the raw metal, around 150 tons per year, and processed it. Gold production in Turkey started only in 2001, and the industry since then freed itself completely from the shackles of state ownership, attaining a beautiful commercial dynamic. Annual production that was a mere 1.4 tons in 2001 reached as high as 35 tons in 2014. With this figure, the Eurasian country is today Europe's largest gold producer. In a couple of years, production is expected to reach 50 tons, which will place the country among the 15 largest gold producers in the world. Turkey's estimated reserves are currently at 700 tons, but keeping in mind that only 15% of the country is explored up until now, Turkey shines as a highly prominent future major gold producer. And considering that the country's current account deficit is as high as 6%, the metals and minerals that lay underground carry a noteworthy potential to improve the balances.
Turkey accordingly became one of the most important new gold exploration frontiers in the world and this, of course, raised the investment appetites of foreign mining companies, who rushed to Turkey in the last decade. Today around 85% of the Turkish mining industry is owned by private firms, local and international, and we see Canadian firms (Alacer Gold, Alamos Gold, Canterra Gold, Aldridge Minerals, Pilot Gold, Frontier Pacific, Odyssey Resources, Teck Cominco, and Eldorado Gold), Australian firms (Chesser Resources), and British firms (Ariana Resources, Kefi Minerals, and Stratex International) mining for gold in various parts of the country.
A major part, around 40%, of all the gold produced in the world every year is destined to be stored as bullion coins or bars that are locked in vaults to be then used as an investment tool. Some say gold is an unproductive, lifeless asset and is a tool for going long on people's fears. However, gold today is a significant part of diversified investment portfolios. In the end, there will always be fearful people around. Therefore gold producers, like Turkey, will always be searching for more of it.
"Not everything that shines is gold," we say. However, Turkey's shine seems quite golden these days.

SPRINGFIELD, Mass. (WWLP) – During the month of February, Springfield Technical Community College continues to celebrate Black History Month. Wednesday's event used art and images to raise issues of racial injustice.
Artist-in-residence Kiayani Douglas lead a group of people in a "wearable-art" workshop at the school's Carberry Fine Arts Gallery.
STCC welcomes artist-in-residence Kiayani Douglas in Black Month event kickoff
Visitors were encouraged to ask questions about the source of the artist's concerns. One painting depicts an unarmed black youth slain by a police officer.
Douglas told 22News, she takes special pride in one painting about African Americans who serve in the military, in which her brother served as a model.
"He felt that was the only way to get out of the ghetto," said Douglas. "So I wanted to create this piece as a way of protesting his ideas that he had to serve."
Douglas's art exhibit "Fallacies of a Black Identity Enthusiast," is on view now through February 29 at the Amy H. Carberry Fine Arts Gallery at STCC.

Advances in technology and manufacturing processes mean that companies can have user-specified designs for everything from custom logos, to in-between sizes, special colors and more. When those options are not readily available, they contact us to discuss the options. Additive manufacturing one-offs and customization are not just possible, but encouraged. Realizing the benefits of 3D printing, Vantage Homes reached out to 3DPS to customize their Mercedes Metris work van emblems to improve their brand recognition and stand out amongst their competitors. The customer considered other options for the customized emblem, but they were unsure of how to find a durable material or how true to the logo that the model could be made. They came to 3DPS to create an original emblem that matches their branding. It also needed to fit nicely and securely on the car while being strong enough to be on the exterior of a vehicle.
Recreating the emblem started with the original part. Using the original part, our design team was able to get the proper measurements. The customer provided a .DXF file of the precise recreation of the logo. .DXF is a common image format used in design and engineering drawings. Creating the custom emblem required using design software with the measurements of the original emblem attachment points. The final model used the frame with the new logo from the customer.
Once the final design was completed for the logo, the customer gave approval to print the part. The 3DPS team selected the right print technology and material; then, with customer approval, the part was printed using the Carbon in RPU70. This material is similar in strength to ABS, but is more UV stable. Additionally, with Carbon print technology it created a very smooth surface finish similar to injection molded parts. The finished print was a beautiful strong part that is sure to draw attention.
The final touch to the customized emblem was adding paint and installing the new emblem. The new emblem looks stunning and is currently out on the road. Keep your eyes out for these awesome customized logos!
If you would like to improve your marketing by creating customized artwork, functional pieces, giveaways, branding, and more, then reach out to firstname.lastname@example.com! Our expert team of designers, scan master, and print operators is here to make sure all of your projects come out with amazing results.

Family Leave Policies Are Supposed to Help Women. Instead, They Trap Them.
Yes, there are unintended consequences to requiring employers to offer family leave benefits.
On Mother's Day this year, Hillary Clinton released a short video calling for the United States to adopt paid family leave policies. The U.S., she said, in support of her call, is "the only developed country" that doesn't require employers to offer paid leave.
Paid family leave requirements and other related benefits for working parents are indeed common around the rest of the world, and they are intended to make life friendlier for women who work and have families. But as The New York Times notes this morning, these policies come with trade-offs: Even as they make it easier for many women to both work and parent, they also seem to make it harder for women to earn more and rise higher in the workplace.
That's true in places like Chile, which since 2009 has required most companies with a sizable number of women employees to provide. Yet as the Times notes, a new study finds that when women are hired on, they are now likely to be paid substantially lower salaries than before the requirement went into effect. Initial monthly wages are about 9 to 20 percent lower for women, the study found by comparing wages from before and after the policy.
There's a similar story in Spain following the implementation of a policy allowing parents of young children—mothers or fathers—to request a reduction in work hours without being fired. Yet as the Times notes, following the implementation of the policy, fewer women climbed workplace ranks to senior positions:
Those who took advantage of it were nearly all women.
Over the next decade, companies were 6 percent less likely to hire women of childbearing age compared with men, 37 percent less likely to promote them and 45 percent more likely to dismiss them, according to a study led by Daniel Fernández-Kranz, an economist at IE Business School in Madrid. The probability of women of childbearing age not being employed climbed 20 percent. Another result: Women were more likely to be in less stable, short-term contract jobs, which are not required to provide such benefits.
In fact, results like this are extremely common wherever employers are required to offer mandatory family leave benefits. The same researchers looked at 22 different countries and found that, in general, they brought more women into the workforce than in the United States, but those women in those countries were less likely to reach higher-paying positions with greater authority. As the Times article puts it, the policies meant that women "were more likely to be in dead-end jobs and less likely to be managers."
The Times' Facebook feed gives the story a whodathunkit?! subhed that starts with "it turns out…" but results like these are the opposite of surprising: When employers have to pay for a benefit, the cost of providing that benefit tends to come out of wages, and employers become more reticent to promote individuals who may be less available to work.
That's true even in the United States, which does not have a federal paid family leave policy but does require larger employers to offer 12 weeks of unpaid family leave. And yet even that comparatively minimal leave requirement appears to have had unintended consequences for women in the workforce: "Women are 5 percent more likely to remain employed but 8 percent less likely to get promotions than they were before it became law," according to an unpublished study, the Times reports. It is a policy that is helping more women work, yes, but holding others back.
The surface appeal of family leave requirements is obvious, but the results of these policies are, at minimum, more complicated and less beneficial to working women than most backers seem to hope. If anything, for those who hope to empower working women, family leave requirements may end up having the opposite of their intended effect, by making employers view them warily, as potential liabilities rather than as full-fledged, productive members of workforce. This may be the most insidious effect: By elegating more women to those "dead-end jobs," these policies and their effects may contribute to the perception that women are not up to the highest demands of the workplace, and that they are most suitable for jobs that don't pay very well or confer a lot of responsibility. Which is to say that instead of helping women, these policies may be trapping them.

Among the unique features of William Blake's Visions of the Daughters of Albion are the names. The names of all five major "characters" appear for the first time in this poem. Harold Bloom has stated that the "Father of Jealousy . . . whom we have met before in Blake as Winter, Tiriel, Restraint, the Devourer, and the Nobodaddy who successfully masquerades as God the Father in Songs of Innocence" is "first introduced in this poem under his Blakean name of Urizen."1↤ 1 Harold Bloom, Blake's Apocalypse: A Study in Poetic Argument (Ithaca, New York: Cornell University Press, 1970), p. 106. Moreover, while Oothoon and Theotormon, the doubtful lovers, reappear in Europe a Prophecy and The Song of Los and, along with the Daughters of Albion and Bromion, in The Four Zoas, Milton, and Jerusalem, they all originate in the 1793 printing of Visions of the Daughters of Albion. 2↤ 2 "Bromion," "Daughters of Albion," "Oothoon," "Theotormon," in Samuel Foster Damon, A Blake Dictionary: The Ideas and Symbols of William Blake (Providence: Brown University Press, 1965). Blake may have selected the names for their derivative significance. For instance, Theotormon is nominally "the man tormented by his own idea of God."3↤ 3 Bloom, p. 102. The name of Urizen, likewise, may suggest "the horizon of thought,"4↤ 4 Bloom, p. 17. as he and his agent try to restrain Oothoon's imagination, or, quite possibly, it may play upon the words "your reason." However, another, more covert method of naming exists, antecedent to this search for derivatives.
Blake's names, all original with this poem, are functions of their first letters. That is, the poet started with the initial letters and then found apt names to complete each letter, or character. These characters form an anagram for "doubt" (Daughters, Oothoon, Urizen, Bromion, Theotormon). Indeed, the poem begins and ends with doubt. The Daughters of Albion watch Oothoon's progress and doubt their ability to seize a similar freedom from Leutha's vale. Bromion assaults the exultant Oothoon and casts doubt upon the validity of her so-called independence. Finally, Theotormon's conscience keeps him dubious of the love and sexual freedom to which Oothoon wishes him to awake. Blake, then, reveals his poetic theme anagrammatically through his names.
Certainly, doubt is a major theme in the poetry of William Blake. Plate 4, "Air," of For the Sexes: The Gates of Paradise shows a miserable character "On Cloudy Doubts and Reasoning Cares";5↤ 5 William Blake, The Poetry and Prose of William Blake, ed. David V. Erdman (Garden City, New York: Doubleday, 1965), p. 259. Hereafter E. moreover, in the accompanying poem, Blake attacks "Doubt which is Self contradiction" (E265). His "Auguries of Innocence" warns: "He who shall teach the Child to Doubt / The rotting Grave shall neer get out" (E483). One may think of the Daughters, the children, of Albion in this connection. Urizen, the source of all this doubt, may come to mind as well in Blake's satiric verse, "You dont believe I wont attempt to make ye" (E492). Here the word "Doubt" is placed in the mouth of Sir Isaac Newton, the scientist parodied by Blake in "The Ancient of Days," who, in the frontispiece to Europe a Prophecy, defines the "horizons of thought" with his compass.6↤ 6 Bloom, p. 157. Doubt limits a person, hinders him from becoming all he can be, and prevents him from drawing the "distinct, sharp, . . . and wirey . . . bounding line" (E540) by which he will live his own life. In Visions of the Daughters of Albion, Blake places Urizen at the center of doubt, both in a thematic and anagrammatical way. In fact, Urizen and Bromion act in the poem and in the anagram to separate the Daughters and Oothoon, the females, from any consummation with Theotormon, the male.
This approach to the poem through anagram does not refute any of the previous speculations about the derivations of the characters' names. The names of Theotormon, Bromion, and Oothoon, as Northrop Frye claims, may well be Ossianic, in so oceanic a poem.7↤ 7 Northrop Frye, Fearful Symmetry: A Study of William Blake (Princeton: Princeton University Press, 1974), p. 238. Yet the focus on the anagram places the horse back before the cart. Blake appears to have predetermined begin page 204 | ↑ back to top his thematic anagram prior to his selection of suitable, properly lettered names from Ossian or elsewhere. Furthermore, the word play seems to indicate the presence of an eighteenth-century wit in Blake, even as he dealt with the most Romantic of themes.

International Monetary Fund (IMF) said on Friday that the China's renminbi exchange rate is broadly consistent with fundamentals and desirable policies.
"The renminbi, despite moving closer to the level consistent with overall assessment, remained broadly in line with fundamentals and desirable policies," said the IMF in its latest External Sector Report released on Friday.
According to the report, in 2016 the average real effective exchange rate depreciated by about 5.1 percent compared to 2015, reflecting in part the strengthening of the US dollar.
China's policies that were put in place to stabilize the growth have led to recent appreciation of RMB, and helped ease capital outflows and foreign exchange reserve loss, Luis Cabeddu, IMF research department's division chief said at a press briefing on Friday.
In regard to China's external sector, the IMF said that China's external imbalances have declined considerably since the global financial crisis.
China's current account surplus declined to 1.7 percent of GDP in 2016, falling substantially from its peak of about 10 percent of GDP in 2007, according to the IMF.
The IMF expected that China's current account surplus will continue to be narrowed if the country continues to implement reforms.
Despite the declines in foreign exchange reserves in 2015 and 2016, the IMF estimated that China's current level of forex reserves to be adequate.
The IMF warned that China may face potential risks of protectionist policies by its key trading partners in the future.
In order to further reduce imbalances, the Washington-based institution suggested China to improve the social safety net, create a more market-based and robust financial system, and take measures to attract more foreign direct investment.

Philly soda, wage taxes draw scrutiny in Harrisburg
Two Philadelphia-specific taxes got the legislative spotlight Tuesday as the Senate Local Government Committee held a hearing on the city's beverage tax and the House Finance Committee held a hearing examining legislation to alter the city's wage tax.
Starting with the beverage tax, the Senate Local Government Committee, chaired by Sen. Scott Wagner (R-York), held a hearing that featured in-person testimony from several anti-beverage tax proponents, including outgoing Philadelphia City Controller Alan Butkovitz, representatives from Coca-Cola and Pepsi, and convenience store owners, all of whom testified about the negative impact the 1.5 cent-per-ounce levy on sugary beverages is having on the Philadelphia economy.
Butkovitz began by explaining that while the tax was implemented with the laudable goal of providing funding for pre-K programs and citywide improvement projects – all the while encouraging healthy eating habits – it has resulted in "an unnecessary bait-and-switch" with the city's wage tax.
"We cannot allow a single tax like the beverage tax to eliminate the progress these businesses have made in our communities," Butkovitz emphasized. "Over the last few years, Philadelphia has had a habit of singling out businesses through tax hikes and not realizing the ultimate impact to the hard-working families that support our communities," he said.
"Unfortunately, the initial goal of the beverage tax has fallen short. We signaled a few months ago that beverage tax revenues are not going to meet projections this year. I expressed my concern that if revenues continued on the same path, the city could fall behind its projections by $15 million or more a year. Over a five-year period, that's $75 million – real money."
The committee heard in person from some of those affected. Jeff Brown, CEO of Brown's Super Stores, Inc., which owns several supermarkets in the Philadelphia area, testified that he has 210 fewer associate positions in his stores as a result of the beverage tax.
"The beverage tax has cut beverage sales by half at our 13 ShopRite stores in the city and created storewide sales drops that vary from 10 to a whopping 25 percent," he said.
"In my six ShopRite stores alone, sales are down an average of 15 percent storewide. And my beverage sales are down nearly 60 percent since the tax took effect in January. We know that shoppers are going outside the city to buy their beverages – and they are taking all their grocery dollars with them."
The committee also heard from early-education advocates and health associations about the benefits of the beverage tax, including written testimony from Philadelphia Mayor Jim Kenney and Philadelphia City Council president Darrell Clarke that provided a firm defense for the city's implementation of the beverage tax.
"While several funding alternatives were proposed and considered, an overwhelming majority of City Council determined that the 1.5-cent-per-ounce tax on sugar-sweetened and artificially sweetened soft drinks was the broadest, fairest funding option," they stated in joint testimony. "This tax – and its associated programs – represents an innovative, cost-efficient local funding solution to solve universal challenges. The City of Philadelphia, which has continued to pass balanced budgets and increase investments in our children while actually lowering taxes in the next fiscal year and significantly improving our credit rating over the last five years, has continued to focus on local solutions."
Many of the committee members speaking out on the tax did so not in opposition to the goals of the revenue, but to its source and effect on the business community and lower-income consumers.
"This conversation that we have today will not be about preemption, but will be about the policy: how it works, how it doesn't work and, then, maybe suggestions about what we do going forward – how we find alternative means and alternative revenues to support those programs where it is most needed," said Sen. Anthony Williams (D-Philadelphia). "It may not happen tomorrow, but it will happen – and it should happen. In the meantime, though, there are many families that are suffering. Suffering, because they can't afford the products they used to afford or suffering because they are losing hours on the job. Those are realities and those are truths that we have to face and be honest about, regardless of where you stand on the fact that we have to support pre-K or repairing recreation centers."
Others viewed the tax as a breach of the social contract entered into with some grocery store owners that were incentivized by the state and city to locate in non-ideal areas to provide more grocery options to Philadelphians.
"I think this appears to be what is happening all over Pennsylvania," Wagner stated, equating the beverage tax to a proposed severance tax on natural gas. "What we do is, we find government changing the rules on businesses. Well, it's no wonder that businesses are leaving Pennsylvania or don't want to come to Pennsylvania – the city of Philadelphia is being affected dramatically."
Philadelphia's beverage tax is the subject of ongoing litigation currently before the Pennsylvania Supreme Court. Previously, the Philadelphia Court of Common Pleas and Commonwealth Court have dismissed constitutional challenges to the tax.
Though just a footnote in the beverage tax hearing, Philadelphia's wage tax and its effect on suburban municipalities was the focus of a hearing before the House Finance Committee Tuesday morning.
Primarily discussed was House Bill 1312, legislation sponsored by Rep. Scott Petri (R-Bucks) that would remove Philadelphia's preemption of local taxes by allowing those working in Philadelphia that commute from outside of the city to pay their local tax first and receive a credit against the Philadelphia non-resident wage tax.
Currently, as a result of the Sterling Act, a Depression-era law giving Philadelphia broad authority to enact resident and non-resident wage tax (also known as a commuter tax), none of the wage tax paid in Philadelphia by non-residents is returned to a worker's home community – a difference from other local wage taxes across the state.
According to Petri, this difference has led to funding crises in some communities.
"Over the years, a lot of my municipalities have enacted an (earned income tax) to supplement their revenue to pay for police, fire, etc.," said Petri. "So, what the bill is aimed to do is, when you pay our local EIT…you are going to get a credit against a Philly wage tax. We don't want to take away all of the Philly revenue because we realize there is a cost to the city of Philadelphia for providing safe places to work, trash, police and etc."
Additionally, Frank O'Donnell, a supervisor in Bucks County's Northampton Township, said the current commuter tax makes it difficult for municipalities to budget and raise revenue.
"The impact of this tax on Northampton is, if we looked at the earned income tax dollars that Northampton would get if there wasn't a Sterling Act, we'd be roughly at $8.5 million. We lose 15 percent of that to the city and the super credit. That is such a substantial piece of our budget that it just makes it extremely difficult as we are going through what we are right now with what are our needs for roads expansion, what are our needs for new police stations…and look at all of those other issues," he said.
Meanwhile, Minority Chairman Jake Wheatley (D-Allegheny) argued that the discussion related to the Sterling Act changes should not occur in a vacuum but, rather, as part of a holistic review of the tax structure of the entire commonwealth and its subsidiary local governments.
"I think it is important we do it in a rational way – in a way that grows our regions and the commonwealth so we get away from this harming someone to benefit someone else – as best we can," he said. "I learned a long time ago that with tax policy, someone is going to end up on the wrong side of it, but we should try to make sure that whatever we do is something we can sustain."

A Word In Edgewise: From CyberSilk Road to Front Porch–Threads of Thoughts
Photo courtesy of BigStock/fortton
I learned to use chopsticks when I was seven or eight, during those occasions my parents and I dined in downtown Hartford at the Far East Garden. Dad was keen I learn to operate chopsticks properly, calling the restaurant owner to advise. Far East Garden's enchanting red lanterns illuminated a prominent framed portrait of Sun Yat-Sen.
No doubt one of the enticing flavors in those shared dishes was garlic, absent in our own kitchen. I first saw real garlic when a friend's mom rubbed a clove into a wooden salad bowl.
At college, the Hong Kong in Harvard Square became a lure and inspiration; those days, one could observe Julia Child shopping at Savenor's, and everyone aspired to culinary excellence. Accessorizing my first kitchen, I took the plunge. A standard press, with a perforated hopper and handles. Peel clove, insert, squish, clean. Repeat. "Peel" and "clean," consumed as much effort as the rest of the meal. I switched to powder, but still bit at any new garlic gimmick. A little saucer with swirls of raised, serrated teeth worked a charm–until knuckles confronted said sharp, ceramic teeth.
Today, a brass-knucks concept. The bottom a flattened, curved steel plate with holes; the plate curving up forming an integral handle, allowing the presser's full strength to bear. In a fortnight, it travelled 6,832 miles from China; a small box addressed to me with a detailed return address.
How? Shaoxing City in Zhengjian Province is one of myriad places where everything's made, yet is also known for fine rice wines and cultural sites. Who hand-packaged and taped the wee box? No one flew it over, it didn't have its own cargo container; what organizational marvels accurately handle one garlic press?
Back in Far East Garden, my knowledge of China consisted of "tea," "porcelain," "exotic dishes with rice," and "checkers." Telephones, no smarter than their users, were attached to the wall and had four-number dialing; long-distance was expensive; letters overseas could take weeks. Now, someone in Building 4 of the Thai Industrial Park has tagged "Boatner" as someone to alert to all things garlic. Is this a good thing? Better than the old? I do love my new press, and as the limerick says, it's "remarkably easy to clean."

With Devon Alexander vs Kell Brook now set for January 19 in the United States, Amir Khan says that if his countryman Brook gets past Alexander and wins the IBF welterweight title, he's very open to a fight in 2013 in the United Kingdom against his press rival.
"I think it's a great step up for Brook, because Brook has been fighting a lower level [of opposition]. I'm surprised that he's taking the fight with Devon Alexander. Devon Alexander is a great fighter. It will be a good fight for the welterweight division and in the future I can fight the winner.
"If he gets past Devon Alexander, then I think it makes sense to have a fight with him - and he'll have a world title [so] it makes sense to fight Brook maybe in the UK. It would be huge."
Khan (26-3, 18 KO) has lost two straight, so you might think it a bit hilarious that he's out there saying he'll "accept" a world title shot in a weight class where he's never fought, but of the three, he remains the biggest star, and that will allow him to call shots for the time being.
Of course, he's taking a fight on December 15 at 140 pounds, facing lightweight prospect Carlos Molina on Showtime in Los Angeles. It's expected to be little more than a get-well win for Khan, who is working with yet another new trainer in Virgil Hunter, having parted ways with Freddie Roach.
There's no doubt that Khan-Brook would be a big fight in the UK, and the good news is that with both being Sky Sports fighters, there would be no TV issue overseas to get in the way, and Golden Boy and Matchroom are already working together on Alexander-Brook, so it wouldn't seem they have any promotional company problems, either.
In short, if Brook does beat Alexander -- far from a sure thing, as it's a good, 50-50 matchup -- there really shouldn't be a lot of trouble making the fight so long as both fighters actually want it. Their recent verbal dust-up on Sky Sports' Ringside show was plenty entertaining and put a lot of fuel into that fire, but there's also the question of either one of them perhaps wanting to stage a bout with Ricky Hatton instead, should Hatton's comeback get off to a good start on November 24. Ricky is a bigger star than both of them combined, probably, and at his age with the time off, he might be viewed by some of these young guns, deep down, as an easy mark.

Images of strangers on a Xiaomi camera's stream to a Google Nest Hub were due to a "cache update," Xiaomi told The Verge. The company added that it has fixed the issue, but Nest integration remains suspended until the "root cause has been completely solved."
As first reported by Android Police, a Reddit user posted images he said came from his Xiaomi Mijia 1080p Smart IP security camera when he tried to stream from the camera to a Google Nest Hub. The still images of strangers included a man sleeping in a chair, a security camera view of a porch, and a sleeping baby.
Xiaomi told The Verge in a statement that a cache update on December 26th, which was designed to improve camera streaming quality, was responsible for the glitch. Xiaomi added that it had only occurred in "extremely rare conditions."
In the case of Reddit user Dio/V who first reported the issue, Xiaomi says, "It happened during the integration between Mi Home Security Camera Basic 1080p and the Google Home Hub with a display screen under poor network conditions."
The company added that the issue would not occur "if the camera is linked to the Xiaomi's Mi Home app."
On Thursday, Google disabled Xiaomi devices' integrations to its Nest Hub and Assistant while it investigated the issue. Xiaomi says it "suspended this service until the root cause has been completely solved, to ensure that such issues will not happen again."
Nest's device access program, puts strict requirements on which third-party devices can be used with its system. Besides the suspended Xiaomi cameras, about two dozen security cameras can be used with Nest displays.
Google said on Friday that it was continuing to work with Xiaomi to resolve the issues for all users.

The 1 oz Engelhard Prospector Silver Round is a piece of American History. It has the same purity and weight as that of other 1 oz silver rounds, but what sets these pieces apart from others is their unique design.

These 1 oz Englehard Prospector Silver Rounds are .999 fine silver. Engelhard's silver items are highly sought after by both silver investors and collectors.

Advise Wise introduces KFI Check and Chase Service
4 September 2020
Advise Wise has introduced a new KFI Check and Chase Service for its Mortgage Club members.
When a later life adviser requests a KFI through the Advise Wise Platform or Mortgage Club, they benefit from a new free service, where the Mortgage Club help desk works on their behalf to chase and check the KFI.
The service has launched by popular demand and provides additional support for advisers who request KFIs through Advise Wise. The new Check & Chase Service means the adviser gets the KFI quicker than before, and right the first time.
The Club's help desk deals with chasing lenders - for outstanding KFIs or in case of delays - and checks the returned KFI to make sure client details, rate, commissions and procurement fees are correct, saving advisers' time.
Jane Hanlon, Mortgage Club Manager at Advise Wise commented: "We've got many advisers asking for support with KFIs and it came natural to launch the Check and Chase Service, to make it even easier for them to get KFIs as quickly as possible."
"We want advisers to focus on advising the client and we are constantly working to make the sourcing process smoother and quicker for them. They can request KFIs through our Platform and Mortgage Club for most lenders' products, and when they do so, we provide them with this extra support in getting the KFI. Plus when they request KFIs through us they also help the environment, since at Advise Wise we plant a tree for each KFI requested through our system.
"Many advisers are just used to log into the lender's portal, but as soon as they try to use a sourcing tool they realise the product search becomes easier and quicker, they can run a whole of market search in just a few clicks and they get a Mortgage Club support with their cases. Amongst the other benefits of using our sourcing tool, our Platform is fully integrated with medical underwriting, meaning brokers get accurate rates and loan-to-value - not just a guide. This saves their time in getting this information immediately on the sourcing tool, but could also save the client's money in the interest rate."

I just love the start of a new year. To me it's just like I imagine a fresh blank canvas must be to an artist – or the first page in a new notebook or journal is to so many stationery lovers. I love the excitement and infinite possibility of looking to the 12 months ahead and dreaming up what I want to achieve. To me it's exhilarating because I know from my experience in life that what I can dream I can find a way to achieve.
To celebrate the start of a beautiful new year, I thought I'd share some of my tips in case you might find some inspiration of your own to dream and to set your goals for the year ahead.
- DREAM: I love starting with a new fresh note book where I start jotting dreams about how my ideal, perfect year ahead might look. I don't think about how I will make it happen. I don't put any constraints on myself. I write as if no-one will ever read what I have written and I just dream up my ideal year in words, lists, pictures and doodles. I try not to pre-judge whether any of my dreams are possible and I just dump them all on paper – one after the next. Rough. Quick. Letting my instinct and my inner self free.
- MOVE TOWARDS TURNING DREAMS INTO REALITY BY SETTING GOALS: Based on my dream year – I then start thinking in a more rational way about what I need to do to make my dreams real. Breaking everything down into small achievable steps. Thinking about who can help me. What barriers I might encounter and how I could overcome them and trying to synthesize thoughts into the simplest goals I can set to get me close to my ideal year. I then cull everything down to just 5 goals that are the most important to me and which if achieved will deliver me my dream year.
- VISUALISE: Once I have my clear goals on paper I then set about creating a vision board that represents the goals as I see them. For example, if I have a fitness goal I may put quotes on fitness and health that will inspire me to keep fit. Or a picture of someone in perfect health who inspires me to take action . This is such a fun project. I don't try to make it perfect, because I know I can always change or add to it during the year. It's all about progress not perfection (which is a philosophy that has guided me for many years).
- THINK HABITS: We are all such creatures of habit. Once I have my goals and have started on the path to visualizing them I think about what the habits are that I would like change to make this the best year yet. What do I need to remove – or stop doing – that no longer serves me. What can I start doing that I know will make a difference and take me closer to my goals?
- ACT DAILY: Probably the most important step of all – I remind myself daily that I just need to do a few simple small things to take me forward today. I know I need to do things every day that are easy to do – and also easy not to do. Simple small steps repeated daily are what really matter and so most important of all I take action daily to move me forward in small or big ways. To help me act daily I have a daily habit – which I love – of writing in my journal about my goals, my dreams and my progress towards them. Reflecting daily is really helpful for me and no matter how busy life gets, I find it really valuable to check in every day with myself – asking myself 'What have I done today to get me closer to the life I want to live this year?'
Have the most wonderful time thinking about, dreaming and planning your year ahead. Make it count for you and for the people you love and make the world more beautiful by being the best version of yourself you can be.
Warm wishes for 2017.

text: It looks like Londonistan has acted (decisively) to remove a militant Islamic cleric. Abu Qatada claimed asylum in the UK after arriving using fraudulent documents in 1993 (as do many other in-land asylum seekers). He was granted status ... but apparently began preaching against his new 'homeland' from the moment he arrived. The Telegraph's 'profile' on Qatada paints a chilling portrait: Among those he influenced were Mohammed Atta, one of the ring-leaders of the September 11 hijackers, who had a number of Qatada's videos in his Hamburg flat. ...he advised Rachid Ramda who is in jail in France for financing the bombing of the Paris Metro in 1995 and Djamel Beghal an Algerian in jail in France for plotting to blow up the American embassy in Paris. ... In March 1995, Qatada issued an influential fatwa [religious ruling] which justified the killing of the wives and children of apostates in Algeria. In September 1998 he told his followers it was legitimate to break Western laws, steal and cheat "kaffirs" [non-believers] and take their women for sex or sale. The following year he used his base at the Four Feathers Social Club in Baker Street, central London to issue a fatwa... Read more →

What You DON'T Need to Know Before Going to Therapy
Updated: Jun 24, 2020
You don't have to have it all figured it out, or know exactly what you want to work on before reaching out to a therapist. You don't need to have the answers, you don't need to know how long you plan to go...you just have to know that you want to start the process.
So what DO you need to know? You have to know whether you are interested and committed to starting the proccess.
Even if you are aren't certain of exactly what it is that you want to figure out, you have to know that you ARE committed to the proccess. What else should you know? Well, I'm glad you asked!
Do you feel safe? When you first contact or meet with the therapist, it's important to be aware of what you are experiencing internally when you first contact/meet with your therapist. If you do not feel safe emotionally (and certainly physically), you will not be able to speak freely and you will be censoring yourself. When that happens, the therapy experience is significantly stilted and not nearly as productive.
What are you are willling to invest in your therapy process? How much time can you commit to therapy? How much energy? How much of your monetary resources? Are you willing to travel for the right thereapist? Are you willing to get to the vulnerable places in yourself?
It's ok to share with your therapist that you are conflicted, and what your uncertain about... and it is their job to help you figure it out.
If you would like to explore if therapy is right for you at this time, feel free to reach out for a free 15 minute consultation. I am now offering remote teletherapy sessions from the comfort of your own home.

Review: Abdel Rahman El Gamal (Founder of the website)
Lotus-aquaculture culture system has been practiced for long time in China and is being evaluated recently in some Asian countries where lotus (Nelumbo nucifera) is native macrophytes. Several fish species have been used in such integrated systems including carps, tilapias and others.
The two culture forms are either the co-culturing of two crops in the same field and for the same time or apply the rotation type in which the culture of each crop is done individually in a one after another pattern.
The evaluation of lotus-aquaculture systems has always considered the technical as well as the economics of such integrated systems. Even the outcomes of the two forms varied and could be related to the culture conditions, there have been some agreements. For example, in the co-culture form, the shading resulting from the shading of lotus leaves which reduce the phytoplankton production and hence the dissolved oxygen in the water. Added to that, if the dead water leaves were not removed from the pond, they decompose and worsen the dissolved oxygen situation which is not in favor of fish production.
Regarding the lotus, fish can feed on aquatic grasses that may compete with lotus for living resources. Also, fish excreta would be a good source of organic fertilizers that leads to enhanced lotus growth. Feeding fish on harmful pests is another benefit of such co-culture method. On the rotation form of lotus-aquaculture, the main advantage is having two different crops instead of one bigger crop. Also, the fish crop would assist in releasing the trapped nutrients from the pond bottom to be usable in the subsequent culture of lotus in an ideal recycling model.

While Cabo San Lucas has been a popular Mexican destination for years, there are a few Los Cabos attractions that remain hidden gems. Escaping the crowds of the city, you can find incredibly unique hidden things to do in Cabo. These Los Cabos attractions are one of a kind yet still off the beaten trail.
One of the most popular activities to do in Los Cabos is to head to the nearby town of San Jose for their art walk on Thursdays. From 5-9pm during November through June, the streets in the Gallery District shut down and galleries open their doors. Wander between shops where local artists are giving talks and displaying their works. On the streets, you'll hear musicians playing into the night. Between galleries, stop for a glass of wine and to soak in the local culture. Unless you purchase a painting, this is one of the free things to do in Los Cabos during your trip that will expose you to the local art scene.
Legend has it that the hotel that inspired The Eagles to write "Hotel California" is located in Todos Santos just outside of Cabo. Rancho Tours provides day trips to many Los Cabos attractions, and in Todos Santos, they'll show you a blanket factory, cultural center, the beautiful mission of Nuestra Señora del Pilar, and local artisan markets. Along the way, you'll sample regional cuisine and candies. This is one of the best family activities in Los Cabos because it will open your children's eyes to how people around the world live their daily lives.
If you're looking for free things to do in Los Cabos, you can safely explore some of the nearby towns on your own. Along the coast, Miraflores is known for their handcrafted leather goods and local cemetery that is full of celebrations during Dia de Los Muertos. Spending a day here tasting the local culture and food is one of the best family activities in Cabo.
Hiking in the desert and mountains around the city is one of the most incredibly beautiful free things to do in Los Cabos, but if it's your first time visiting, a tour may be the best way to explore. High Tide Expeditions is a very reputable company that will take you to one of the hidden things to do in Cabo: an oasis called Fox Canyon. Hiking along the river will lead you to freshwater pools and a hidden waterfall. Here, you'll be witnessing the secret beauties of Mexico and the tranquil environment that makes it a legendary place to visit.
Preserving the environment is one of the hidden activities to do in Los Cabos, and it's just as important on vacation as it is in our daily lives. Releasing baby sea turtles and learning about the species is important if we want our oceans to stay healthy. This is one of the best family activities in Los Cabos. Kids will love naming a baby turtle and helping it swim into the ocean, and parents will love the educational program.
Flora Farms is an organic farm to table restaurant outside the city. Surrounded by nature, it's one of the best hidden things to do in Cabo, but it's more than just a restaurant. Between rows of heirloom vegetables and tropical fruit growing on the farm, there's also a spa with all natural services and yoga and pilates classes. Cooking classes at the farm will have you prepared to make authentic Mexican food in your own kitchen, and at the grocery store at Flora Farms, you can take fresh produce back to your resort for healthy eating on vacation.
These activities to do in Los Cabos will take you away from the main tourist attractions and show you another side of the city. Your vacation will be unique and still exciting when you try these hidden gems in Los Cabos.

Netsafe, a New Zealand-based non-profit online safety group, introduced an AI email bot this week that will fight back against phishing scams by wasting their time. As Netsafe explained in a on Tuesday, the bot replies to scams "with a never-ending series of questions and anecdotes so that scammers have less time to pursue real people."
All you have to do to retaliate against a scammer is forward the email to email@example.com. From there, the Re:scam AI will take over and start a dialogue with the scammer, leading them on and wasting their time. When the scammer stops responding, Netsafe will even send you a summary of the conversation.
"Re:scam can take on multiple personas, imitating real human tendencies with humour and grammatical errors, and can engage with infinite scammers at once, meaning it can continue an email conversation for as long as possible," Netsafe explains on its website. "Re:scam will turn the table on scammers by wasting their time, and ultimately damage the profits [which Netsafe says number in the billions] for scammers."
If you want to learn more about the project, head over to rescam.org to "interact" with the bot. On the site, you can look through a series of sample scams to see how Re:scam responded, giving potential participants an idea of what a typical conversation with a scam-fighting AI looks like. There's also an FAQ that can help educate you on phishing in general, and Netsafe and the Re:scam AI program specifically. It's worth checking out.

Mall robberies: SAPS' Release of Identikits Commendable, Public must now Act
Statement by Dan Plato, Western Cape Minister of Community Safety
I commend the South African Police Service (SAPS) for releasing identikits and calling on the people of the Western Cape to assist with identifying the suspects involved in the recent spate of armed robberies at malls and shopping centres.
It must be understood that certain criteria needs to be followed before the SAPS can release CCTV footage to the public, and now that they have done so, I urge the public to assist the police with information on the whereabouts of these suspects.
Members of the public can rest assured that the information will be treated confidentially and can submit information on the whereabouts of suspects to Captain Charl Kinnear (082 820 8015). For more information or the relevant photos, the public can visit the SAPS' press release.
I also urge the police to, where possible, partner with the public in the same manner for assistance in other crimes committed. We are all striving to create safer communities in the Western Cape and through meaningful partnerships, these safer environments are possible.
However, for the whole-of-society approach to be effectively implemented we have to be consistently critical of any loopholes that require the attention from any sphere of government, department or organisation involved.
In this regard, we have to ask where the loopholes are that allowed at least two of the identified suspects to be roaming the streets when they are repeat offenders out on bail, for armed robbery perpetrated in March already, and failed to return to court.
These loopholes need to be investigated and closed as a matter of urgency. I will be raising this matter with the Provincial SAPS management.

There is no doubt that COVID-19 has changed, probably forever, the way people consume retail. There are two immediate factors that influence the fashion industry. The first relates to how we shop – we tend to shop less and care more about purchasing sustainable products. Second, we care more about the people behind our clothes – the low-income workers who make our clothes and were the first to get hit by the global crisis.
Moreover, as the fashion industry becomes more transparent, there is a need for a responsible, transparent, shorter, and automated supply-chain.
Shorten your supply chain
Recent global supply chain disruptions have emphasized the need for reshoring textile production.
From a consumer perspective, customers feel more comfortable purchasing products that are produced locally as they value eco-friendly initiatives and understand the environmental and welfare impact local supply chains deliver.
On the other hand, manufacturers are looking for ways to save on energy and shipping. Also, as automation is gaining popularity and rising productivity, companies are willing to invest in skilled workforce closer to home and pay more for it.
Faster delivery time, improved quality to comply with strict guidelines, and positive company image make reshoring more attractive.
Kornit's digital printing solutions enable just that. Imagine a local factory with a single-step solution for almost all your printing needs that does not consume water, uses less energy and waste, and meets your business need.
It's all about relationships: know your supplier
How well do you know your suppliers? Once the chain of supply is established, how many of us amend or review our suppliers on a regular basis? Don't wait for another global pandemic to assess your supply chain.
The buyer's relationship with the supplier is a prerequisite for good business; however, any disruption in the supply chain has an ultimate cost. It's therefore critical that due diligence and cost comparisons become a regular control function for any business, large or small.
Transparency is key. As commerce becomes virtual and increasingly automated, choose your suppliers wisely, keep in close contact (virtual or physical), and insist on transparency to build a strong supplier base and ensure your business mitigates risk.
Transparent supply chain is the new norm
In an era of increased transparency, certification and regulation must be documented and often electronically embedded into the supply chain. It provides clarity at each point of manufacturing or purchase for every unique product, regardless of end use.
Transparency is key to a responsible supply-chain. Simplifying your supply-chain controls your emissions, labour, waste and ensures you can track each step of the chain.
Moreover, transparent supply-chain is part of being socially responsible. Responsible that all suppliers execute fair labour, care about their community and implement best practises for the health and safety of their workplace.
Build your supply-chain to be strong and diverse to carry on through any turmoil and out-of-stocks. Automate it to ensure your business runs smoothly with no interruption to workflow and sales.
One way of doing so is to have an on-demand domestic production. Nearshoring your supply-chain will give you more flexibility and control at times of market interruption such as border closure. It will also reduce the environmental impact of long-distance product travel.
Investing the time during strong market conditions to source alternate suppliers will provide a valuable resource in times of adversity. Dual sourcing provides some assurance that should your favoured supply routes stall, your business can pivot and avoid production disruption.
Invest in workflow automation
Printing manufacturers are expected to speed up production and reduce manufacturing lead times for product to a matter of days.
A Mckinsey report from 2019 predicts that, within ten years fully automated factories will enable full nearshoring of production. According to the report, special disruptive technologies include Sewing Automation, Intra-Logistics Automation, Digital Printing, Gluing & Bonding and Knitting. Embrace these new technologies and re-equip your supply-chain.
Automate stock control to ensure guaranteed continuity of components, and release valuable cash held in surplus inventory purchases to build an efficient pipeline.
Take back control of your supply chain: Invest the time now and be prepared for the next opportunity or challenge.
There is an urgent need for on demand manufacturing in a sustainable world.
The need is two-fold. Brands are leveraging their new agenda of a sustainable, transparent supply-chain to regain customers' trust and wallets. On the other hand, customers demand from their brands to be accountable for their suppliers and products.
15% of consumers in the US and Europe alone expect to buy more ecologically and socially sustainable clothing according to a McKinsey survey.
About the sponsor: Today, choosing the right technology for efficiency, transparency, and sustainability is critical as ever. With Kornit Digital textile decoration systems, your production model is optimized to eliminate inventory risk; sell first, and then create a nearly unlimited range of fashion, home décor, accessory, or DIY applications on demand, with a turnkey process simple enough to ship at the e-commerce speeds your customer demands.

The Agile Coach In Beautiful Delivery
SogetiLabs Fellow Christian Forsberg is passionate about "Beautiful Delivery" and the importance of agile coaches. Tips and tricks from our global lead architect.
Based on my work on Beautiful Delivery with autonomous cross-functional teams (for more details, see Use Beautiful Delivery to Speed Up Your Digital Transformation), I have set out to define the different roles in a bit more detail. This time I will focus on the Agile Coach.
The main responsibility of the Agile Coach is to make sure that everyone in the team works efficiently together. It's kind of the opposite of the traditional manager that assigned and followed-up on tasks. Just to make the point of not being the manager, I often say that the ultimate goal for the Agile Coach is to make herself obsolete.
