A bit redundant, eh?) They were introduced in the excellent The Shadowrift product. And also, there was an actual sourcebook called The Shadowelves for Mystara - it was supposed to be one of the Gazeteers (it remains the infamous 'missing' Gazeteer). They decided to repurpose that Material for their Hollow World setting, so the book was never published for the 'topside' Mystara setting. They were the one group that was 'common' to BOTH settings. Shadow Elves were Mystara's (OD&D) version of drow, except they were albinos (like Ed's drow were, before TSR got ahold of them and said, "Oh no! Only 'black things' can be bad!")

Albinos ARE born to regular drow on occassion, and they're usually abandoned to die, but I had an idea where some managed to live (perhaps not all of them were discarded), and they 'rescued' others from various drow settlements (it may have even been a case of rare drow sentimentality - there may have been a specific spot outside the settlements where such children were placed, so that the groups of albinos could come retrieve the child. Meanwhile, 'officially', the child was abandoned as per Lolth's clergy's decree. Because this has been going on for thousands of years, there are never several 'tribes' of albino drow, leaving in secret throughout the Underdark (its not like human albinism, and it 'breeds true' most of the time). I had some lore saying one tribe had found its way to the Moonsea region, and became the 'Sea Drow' (Marels) - they have a special series of caves wherein they can access the Moonsea from the underdark (and they became sea elves the same way the surface elves do - they just wanna).

Sunday, I went to a local mall w/ friends to see a movie. The one we wanted to see was sold out (the freaky Snow White one w/ Charlize Theron, who I think is way cool). So, since the other choices seemed lame (Tom Cruise as an Axl Rose wannabe? Yikes!), we headed to a fave restaurant for black bean burgers.
As you know from reading SPGL, I'm not a vegetarian, but I crave these veg. burgers like I do a cheeseburger which means when it pops into my head, I'm going to have to get one. My one friend had never had this item, so we were glad to make the introduction. After ordering and sitting down, we decided that because we missed our movie, we should have a bottle of wine. I don't normally drink in the middle of the day, but it was appealing. We had a Lagaria Pino Grigio and it was tasty.
People Watching
Possibly fueled by the wine, we spotted some fashion disasters outside the restaurant window and entertained ourselves by commenting:
- Cowboy boots w/ short skirts – Unless you're receiving a CMA, leave this look at home.
- Maxi dresses w/ running shoes – Where are your flip-flops or cute sandals, ma'am?
- Kardashian Klones -We were blinded by all that faux bling, tight lacy apparel and a shoe style that starts w/ "f."
- Hair adornments – We even saw bitch clips, that old stand-by from the eighties you used to hold your big hair in place (in addition to your Paul Mitchell "Freeze and Shine" spray.)
Maybe it's because I don't have kids, but explain to me how it's it possible for a cranky baby to hit that level of decibels in a restaurant w/o amplifiers? I don't think it was just me because my friend has three kids and six grandchildren and she wanted to poke her own eye out w/ a fork. Mom walked baby around the restaurant, which wasn't making the child any happier. She did calm down a bit when handed off to Dad. I bet that make moms really irritated when they do that.
Restoration (Black Amex Card) Hardware
As we left the restaurant, it started to pour so we ducked into Restoration Hardware. I'm not a shopper, but I do like me some RH stuff. Who doesn't need a 6-foot high, folding office-in-a-metal-trunk? So cool. Maybe not for $8K. I don't know if that's the price, but I'm sure it's not far off. Price tags were noticeably absent. To me, this usually translates to, "you better have that Black Amex on you."
Since it was still raining, we settled into some fine leather couches. Attractive sales guys wearing headsets kept asking us questions. Haven't seen that headset thing outside of Vickie's Secret and those chicks scare me. But these guys were bored, so we must have been entertainment.
The girls wanted to head over to The Container Store, but I said I needed to go home and get some work done. But you know, I actually like that emporium of "stuff you don't need, but have to buy." People my age get off on that place – it's kind of like a cool night spot for the over-50 set. Don't judge. You know you'd like some brightly colored, stackable mesh storage cubes in 12 sizes…

I just spent 2 weeks here. It was very peaceful and relaxing with only 9 rooms. The rooms were clean and spacious and reguarly cleaned. The kitchen was well equiped, although probably best for just preparing breakfast and lunch. The swimming pool was a nice size and made a nice change to the beach. Lassi's shops and restaurants were only 5 minutes walk down hill. Argostoli is a 30 minute walk or 5 Euro taxi ride away. The apartments are slightly uphill but nothing too strenuous. There's plenty of room to park hired cars too.
The beach is about 10 minutes walk away. Don't go down the nearest turning to Makris Gialos beach -walk further along the road away from lassi for 5 minutes and then head down through the woody bit and the the parasols are much cheaper! If you go to the nearest beach in the centre of lassi you will pay 10 Euros as opposed to 7.50 EU. Go into Argostoli to the produce market for you food unless you want to pay the over priced tourist rate for everything. The nicest nearest restaurant is the Olive Press- 5 minutes walk away-they do super taziki-it's seriously garlicy.
However, if you want to experience the real kefalonia avoid lassi of an evening-it's a souless superficial tourist made resort where there are no locals! By contrast Argostoli really comes to life in the evening with its trendy cafes and lots over fashion conscious Greeks it makes for fantastic people watching! Don't forget to try the ice coffee it's really tastey and all the locals drink it.
Plays really bad eurovision music. Less tacky than the other bars in lassi-although only tourists go here. Drinks are pricey.
Played live music and does extra garlicy taziki. Prawns and fish were very tastey.
The best thing about Lassi is its location. It has fab beaches and it's near to Argostoli. Apart from that it is a tacky touist resort and not remotely Greek. I didn't rate the restaurants either. The supermarkets are over priced and it lacks atmosphere. Neverthelss, it was a terribly convenient place to stay as far as getting around the island.
The best restaurants were the tiny family run ones found in small villages/towns around the island. The nicest beaches were the quiet ones where the locals went- dotted all along the coast and not charging 12 Euros to hire a parasol! The best atmosphere was in Argostoli with its trendy cafe culture - it was fun to come and watch the Greeks pose and the children play in the central square. Plus the shopping was not bad for such a small island!

Pottery Barn
I think it might be a very nifty adventure to go to a barn filled with pottery. Of course it would be handmade pottery with various lumps and minor mistakes to give each piece it's own character. Some would be raw and ready for paint and others would be neatly hand painted already. They of course would be pretty inexpensive b/c of the cheap overhead that a barn provides! Many women wearing flipflops, fun purses and carrying sonic cups would browse through the pottery laughing and never sweating and purchasing inexpensive pieces for their homes and friends/family. Sounds fun, right?!
Well I am pretty sure that this is the very reason the store, deceptively called Pottery Barn, is so inviting to many a woman. However, I am confused by the fact that said store does not carry much pottery and never looks much like a barn or anything you would put in the barn. The prices are then marked far beyond what any one I know that has a barn could afford!!!!
Don't get me wrong... I love their stuff. The wood is beautiful and they know just the right shade of green a girl needs. They have handy container-store-like things that never get boring and more lamp shades in the same color than a girl knows what to do with. It's just the fact that every time I look at a price tag I get nauseous!! Sometimes when we walk by they will have their clearance stuff sitting in the door way marked way down... but yet still always closer to $1000 dollars. yikes!
But I have chosen to still hold the store in high regard and even browse through their catalog... appreciating that they tell you what color paint they used on the walls in the picture! great idea!....... until recently.
I received a catalog, which I browsed through w/out the slightest idea I would purchase anything from it. Then on the back cover there were these adorable water-bottles. Since learning my beautiful pink nalgene-thing w/ straw was poisonous to drink from I had been looking for an aluminum-type water bottle to replace it that fit my personality. There is was... pinkandred flowers on a white background aluminum waterbottle for only $10.. that's cheaper than any place I had seen. I told a friend and then went and picked one up for her and myself!
Quickly people from our church and school picked up on the cute bottles and now they are everywhere... then it happened. Black spots began to appear on the bottom of the bottle... no biggie my husband reassured me. Drinking on... the spots went from black to white. hmmm. Then while we were in New Zealand I got one of those lovely white spots IN MY MOUTH!!!!
One word can explain...... MOLD!
Sick, disgusting, nasty, blah!!!!!
Oh so gross.
I am still grossed out!
How could a place that charges $1000 for a drawer give me a moldy water-bottle?
I had washed it. I hadn't had any sicknesses. No one else had drank from this water bottle. sick.
Then my friend, the one I gave the other waterbottle, told me HERS TOO was MOLDING!!! ICK!
So we are spreading the word that Pottery Barn is selling water bottles that do not have the right coating on the inside, which makes the aluminum itself not very good to drink from AND causes it to MOLD!
So, if you are looking to be green and stay away from plastic bottles... you should also stay away from pottery barn... unless it is a neat wooden structure where lovely ladies with sonic drinks are walking in and out of in their flip flops with hand made pottery at cheap prices!

Check out Sigg bottles. They have plain ones and decorative ones I think they have one that is white with pink it. Dorothy even has her own with a teddy bear on it! I got the plain red one.

I bought a Pottery Water Bottle as well, and when drinking out of it, I thought it tasted a bit weird. Now I plan on looking for that mold. Ew! I hope that's not why the water tasted bad. Wish me luck! Thanks for the heads up!

Laken bottles are the best! They are BPA Free, light weight, but durable and have all sorts of colors and great graphics. They are coming out with a new line of JEETO for kids graphics that are sweet!

What Sticks – Chapter 3
Consumed => "What Sticks – Chapter 3 (Overcoming A Marketing Culture That Resists Change)" by Rex Briggs and Greg Stuart.
And now to the highlight reel:
— Bill Lipner (Chairman of Insight Express): "In a business competition, culture will eat strategy for lunch."
— The next root problem with marketing is its culture.
— Problem #1: The Knowing vs Doing Gap
— The critical research question is always, "What is the value of the next dollar we spend? Where is the best place to spend it?"
— Knowing what to do based on data is a world apart from doing it. Facts alone don't change action.
— Problem #2: The Distorted Lens of Marketers
— The first three paragraphs of this section are a MUST READ of any marketer. For many it will be eye opener.
— Have you, as a consumer, ever sat and watched a TV commercial and applauded at the end of it?
— Marketers seldom stop to think about how consumers interact with their advertising.
— The average consumer spend three seconds looking at a magazine ad. While marketers and advertisers spend days.
— Problem #3: Fear of Failure
— When the Japanese find a defect in the manufacturing process, they call it a treasure.
— A problem discovered in marketing is not a treasure. Actually, it's considered the f-word: failure.
— Marketers must overcome their fear of failure and embrace the value of knowing and improving.
— Problem #4: Marketing As "Magic" And The Myth That "You Can't Measure Branding.
— Measuring attitudes and emotions is like measuring the wind. You can't directly see the wind, but you can see the effects of wind.
— When you combine a business function that doesn't necessarily hold a storehouse of knowledge on how its area works with a culture that doesn't believe in research and the application of learning, then you have what many would called a "challenging" situation.
IMHO, the issue is that marketer tend to sit on the creative side of the fence. It's not so much cultural as it is genetic.

What is a counter-claim?
A counter-claim is a demand for relief made by a defendant in a civil case against a plaintiff. A personal injury or similar tort case begins when an injured person, the plaintiff, sues another person, the defendant, demanding damages because the defendant's behavior was either intentional or negligent. A counter-claim is a way for the defendant to say, "hey, you owe me as well."
Some states, such as California, refer to counter-claims as "cross-complaints," but they should not be confused with cross-claims. To make matters even more confusing, a defendant who files a counter-claim is known as both the "defendant" (in the original case) and the "counter-claim plaintiff" (in the counter-claim), while the plaintiff becomes both the "plaintiff" (in the original case) and the "counter-claim defendant" (in the counter-claim).
For instance, suppose that the plaintiff in a case is injured in a car accident. Her auto insurance is supposed to cover her medical bills if she's injured in a car crash, but in this case, her insurer refuses to pay. The plaintiff sues her insurance company, seeking the insurance coverage that her premiums were supposed to pay for. Suppose, however, that the defendant insurer believes that the plaintiff deliberately lied on her insurance application, and that if she had told the truth, the insurer would never have given her a policy. The insurer may decide to file a counter-claim against the injured driver, claiming that she committed fraud and owes them damages.
In the original insurance claim, the injured driver is the plaintiff and the insurance company is the defendant. In the fraud claim, the injured driver is the counter-claim defendant and the insurance company is the counter-claim plaintiff. However, both claims can be addressed by the same judge or jury in the same trial.
Counter-claims are a type of claim joinder, which allows parties to a particular case to bring up all the legal issues that are related to the same chain of events that created the original dispute. Since dealing with all the issues that come from the same case saves time, money, and effort for everyone involved (including the court), most courts permit or even encourage the use of counter-claims and other kinds of claim joinders whenever possible.
This was not always the case, however. Once upon a time, a defendant who had a counter-claim against a plaintiff could only bring up the claim as an affirmative defense. If the jury decided the defendant's counter-claim was worth more than the plaintiff's claim, the defendant got a "recoupment," or the difference in money damages between his claim and the plaintiff's. If his claim was worth less than the plaintiff's, however, he got a "set-off," or the amount he had to pay the plaintiff reduced by the amount his claim was worth. The math in these cases was similar to the calculations used for comparative negligence today, but the results often left defendants with a less fair result. Counter-claims were established to ensure that the plaintiff's claim and the defendant's claim are on an equal footing in court.
Today, counter-claims may be allowed even if their nature or subject matter is completely unrelated to the original claim. They may also be filed even after the defendant has filed his answer to the original complaint. As a rule, however, counter-claims that are related to the same event or transaction as the original claim are considered "compulsory," while counter-claims that are not related are considered "permissive." If a defendant has a counter-claim against a plaintiff that is related to the same events that created the plaintiff's original claim, he must file the counter-claim as part of the plaintiff's original case, or he may be barred from suing the plaintiff over it later. The reason for this rule is to increase efficiency by making parties resolve all their disputes related to the same facts in the same case. Otherwise, parties might find themselves having to prove the same set of facts over and over in multiple trials, costing a great deal of extra time and money, instead of merely proving the facts once and dealing with all the disputes that arise from those facts in a single trial or hearing.

Duminy eager to take inputs from Tendulkar during IPL
South African batting sensation JP Duminy is in awe of master blaster Sachin Tendulkar and the youngster is looking to utilise his Indian Premier League stint to gather cricket knowledge from his illustrious Mumbai Indians team-mate.cricket Updated: Apr 25, 2009 18:27 IST
South African batting sensation JP Duminy is in awe of master blaster Sachin Tendulkar and the youngster is looking to utilise his Indian Premier League stint to gather cricket knowledge from his illustrious Mumbai Indians team-mate.
Although Duminy admitted that he is feeling the heat of playing alongside superstars like Tendulkar and Sanath Jayasuriya in the Mumbai Indians team, he said he is eager to do well in the on-going Twenty20 extravaganza in South Africa.
"I am looking forward to talk to him (Tendulkar) about my game. He is such a legend. I would be lying if I say I am not awe of him. He is a great guy and very approachable," he said.
"I expect to play well. I am well experienced with the local conditions and will have to play a pivotal role, but I don't want to pressure myself. I look at it as just another game of cricket."
The 25-year-old added that considering his vast experience and knowledge about the game, Tendulkar's role in the Mumbai Indians outfit is that of an anchor.
"The strategy is that Sachin Tendulkar will play the anchor role and the other guys will play around him. He is an experienced campaigner and reads the game very well," said Duminy, who considers national team-mate Herschelle Gibbs as his idol, in the official IPL website.
Impressed with Duminy's talent during South Africa's historic Test and one-day series victory in Australia earlier this year, Tendulkar-led Mumbai Indians bagged the youngster for a huge $950,000 and the South African said he is enjoying every bit of the limelight.
"It has been an amazing experience for me. It has been just a few days and I am enjoying every bit of it. We are coming together as a team. The guys are looking forward to the next game."
He added that the high-profile IPL will be an ideal platform for the players to prepare for the ICC World Twenty20 in England in June.
"It has been good. I played well in T20s in Australia. Playing in the IPL will be good preparation for the coming ICC World Twenty20," Duminy said.
Duminy also feels that having Shaun Pollock and Jonty Rhodes' in the Mumbai Indians think-tank will give a boost to the team's title aspirations in the IPL this season.
"We are fortunate to have Shaun Pollock and Jonty Rhodes in the coaching staff. They have played the game at the highest level and have a good understanding about what it takes to be a champion team. With their knowledge about the local conditions and pitches, the duo is playing an important role forming team strategies," he said.

Wikipedia describes it "the worth of revenue figuring in an incredibly provided curiosity earned over the specified length of time. To investopedia, it truly is "the proven incontrovertible fact that income sold at the particular time may be really worth in excess of the exact same volume afterwards since possible earning capacity." And to lottery winners who uncover they're in the position to only get around 1 / 2 of no matter what they won Anytime they want the cash beforehand, It's really a several crap! But make no miscalculation over it; some time worth of revenue principle is Among the most fundamental in each individual of finance- personalized, corporate, or investment. It is the cornerstone for sets from compounding curiosity over the valuation of firms and that is essential to knowledge, and eventually earning, any extended-term financial investment choice. But definately not extremely difficult, it might be repeatedly misunderstood or, no fewer than, assumed. If you will not let's face it, ask relatives and buddies what percentage of them stash away $20 or $30 every month Finding out the electric power harnessed within this easy thought. Or give thought to why on this Earth you loaned your Mate $fifty whilst working with expectation of acquiring specifically $50 by using a later, Maybe Significantly later, day. Or, returning to our earlier example, have a seat with amongst several lottery winners whorrrre offended whenever they find out They can be truly not millionaires. Not straight away, for the really minimum.
From a business viewpoint, by making use of a system normally generally known as Discounted Dollars Flows (or DCF), you might get pleasure from the principles baked into time worth of revenue to determine the real cost of most scenarios. "Real", Normally, is mostly a vague, illusive even, expression. What I mean to condition is "your" actual price, looking at your perceived possibility after which other options (chance Price tag) you will probably have. Plainly place, some cash now could possibly be valued at larger than about $ 1 tomorrow. So the financial institution would like to buy you far more tomorrow for permitting it use your cash currently. Just such as the point out, who agreed to invest you a thousand bucks in twenty annual installments of $50,000 when you received the lottery, is only going to pay for you 50 % that (perhaps even not even fifty percent) during the party you want it at the start. Why? Because their point out loses a chance to invest market of their money ($1M minus 50k paid for your necessities in 12 months one minus 50k paid for your requirements in year two for you Individually, and many others.) within the following 19 several years. In essence, they punish you, the lottery winner, only for this. And the associated fee (the hole involving $1M and what the point out of hawaii will present you with ahead of time) is calculated using whatever amount They may be (or implicitly assert) they are able to have gained on that money experienced you allow them to keep it.
My Mate, Kevin, who I am going to mention more in later posts, lifted a considerably larger (additionally specified strategies much more disturbing) comparison: the housing prices, especially in California. If homeowners in the peak within the housing growth had taken any time to make use of this rule, he introduced up, purely natural meats cease throughout the situation uncover ourselves now. A straightforward exercise the position you benefit a house at the particular valuation on their inflows (doable rental values) in addition to the terminal worth (phase that you feel the inflows will gradual in your regular, continuous advancement condition) bears this out. (Note: The system consists of an excellent amount of unknown variables--including the event amount inside the the price of hire, the price cut level, and stretch of time which you are forecasting--to be unequivocally accurate, but it's still a successful training.)
Down below are what I hope are rather simple explanations and serious lifetime illustrations during the purposes about the Time Price of Income.
Easy Fascination
Not applied ordinarily, this can be the most basic within the TVM (Time Worth of Income) formulation. Utilizing r as being the annual desire premiums (the incidence the mortgage originator--e.g. financial institution--is able to spend you for possessing your cash) and PV since amount you First of all set aside, you just determine the annual curiosity earned (PV * r) and multiply it because of the yrs, t, ahead of the amount of cash is returned.
Instance: $a hundred for five years @ five%
FV = PV + (PV * r * t)
= $a hundred + ($a hundred * .05 * 5)
= $a hundred twenty five
Compound Curiosity
Uncomplicated curiosity just isn't good to the person lending the sum of money. Why? As it ignores the reality that the loan originator incorporates the choice to pull her dollars out and reinvest the larger volume. As an outcome and following that type of reasoning, the fascination charge attained is bigger in each subsequent year. Inside our similar situation, for example, $one hundred would earn $five through the newbie. If withdrawn then reinvested, the modern total, $one zero five, would receive $5.25. Yet another yr later, the entire quantity would mature to $a hundred and ten.25, which, once more if used for and reinvested, would get paid $five.fifty one. And and so forth. Once more using PV since initial amount of money invested, r since the annual curiosity, and t as the complete length of time invested, the components for calculating the long run Benefit, FV, is:
Instance: $one hundred for 5yrs @ five%, compounded every year
FV = PV * (one+r)t
= $a hundred * (one + .05)five
= $127.sixty three
Compound Fascination with quicker compound charge
Definitely lenders usually are not with a loaning their own individual in one-yr terms or increments. Since on the, most borrowers, like banking institutions and firms who elevate cash, compound somebody's eye with better frequency. All over again, the reasoning guiding it is that the lending business could theoretically just take his funds out and reinvest The larger amount straight away. Most financial loans, consequently, are compounded quarterly, every month, even everyday. And This may be what would make compounded interest so potent and why just about every youngster, I feel, really should be taught this important lesson in the beginning of college.
Tweaking the first system to are the cause of the additional compound intervals is easy. The rate of desire, r, is split as a result of amount of instances a 12 months an individual's eye is compounded; Regardless that the yrs, t, is multiplied with that exact selection. If our initial example was compounded every month, Through case in point, $one hundred would expand to $one hundred.forty two after per month. In your next thirty day period, it'd expand to $a hundred.84; $one hundred and one.26 inside the 3rd; and this sort of like. With PV as becoming the Preliminary total invested, r as getting the yearly curiosity, t as the total time frame, and n as the level of occasions an individual's eye is compounded for each annum, the Future Worth, FV, is:
Instance: $a hundred for quite a few many years @ 5%, compounded regular monthly
FV = PV * (one+r/n)t*n
= $100 * [one+(.05/twelve)]five*twelve
= $one hundred * (one + 0.004167)sixty
= $128.34
Discounting or Current Value
Existing Worth Formulation
This rule, of course, also performs back. The inspiration remains exactly the same, though. A dollar now may very well here be valued at a whole lot over about $ 1 tomorrow. The present value, then, of $100 acquired a very long time from the foreseeable upcoming, is below $a hundred. And the lengthier you've gotten to get to wait with the $one hundred, the much less the current worth. This regulation is very important when measuring the valuation on any financial commitment, the place which the main aim needs to be to receive a profit by paying out lessen than the valuation on all future envisioned income flows. And whilst forecasting the money flows is actually complicated sufficient, discounting Those people funds flows is every single bit complicated, and as vital.
To resolve for this recent worth, we use from day Algebra turnover our before system. Now with FV since the cash inflow predicted in a while, r since the once-a-year interest amount (usually the pace the lending business feels he could gain somewhere else), t Because the whole many years prior to a earnings is recognized, and n mainly because number of occasions the attention is compounded for every annum, the Present Value, PV, is:
Case in point: $100 discounted 5yrs @ five%, compounded regular
PV = FV/[1+(r/n)]t*n
= $one hundred/[1+(.05/12)]5*12
= $one hundred / (one + 0.004167)sixty
= $77.ninety two
Working with Annuities
Simply because hard cash flows, specially if looking at those from an organization or identical investment, are seldom static or mounted just after a while, while using frequent current value approach to low cost each predicted payout separately is appropriate. But when The cash streams are regarded and consistent--just as in lottery winnings, as an example--treating them for an annuity is much easier and more rapidly.
Future Price of Annuity
By definition, an annuity is only a fastened cost settled regularly. The payout time frame (years) can even be fixed, like 20 or many years, but also in Particular cases termed a perpetuity, can go on endlessly. The logic at the rear of It can be corresponding to that bordering 1 one particular time payment that possibly compounds Or maybe discounted. The only real distinction is The actual fact everyone knows Exactly what are the streams are coupled with their typical intervals and, thus, rather then building twenty or thirty independent totals and summing All those totals, we can simplify points. With PV and FV as present and foreseeable future worth respectively, n as full intervals (typically only yearly considering that the payment and compound intervals should match as a way for your personal payment stream getting deemed an annuity), PMT simply because regular payment, and r for the reason that monthly interest, the formulas are:
Illustration: $one hundred a year for a number of years, discounted @ five%
PV = Pmt * [one-(1+r)-n)]/r * (1+r)
= $100 * [(one + 1.05)-five]/.05 * (1.05)
= $454.sixty
.... or
Illustration: $100 a calendar year permanently, discounted @ five% (Perpetuity)
PV = Pmt / r
= $100 / .05
= $2,000.00
.... and
Illustration: $100 a 12 months for numerous many years, compounded @ five%
FVA= Pmt * [(1+r)n)-1]/r
= $a hundred * [(1 + .05)5-1]/.05
= $552.fifty six
Utilizing Microsoft Excel
At the time you receive employed to it, the formulas outlined over are less complicated than you believe to operate with and use. But the same as most monetary equations and formulas, Excel brings about it to become even easier. Utilizing several features, PV() or FV(), you can perhaps swiftly find out this current or potential value of any payment or stream of payments (annuity).
Long run Worth
where by charge = periodic charge (if compounding regular monthly, This may be a once-a-year price/twelve) nper = complete periods (if compounded month-to-month, Here's the overall num. of yrs * twelve) pmt = for the annuity, the amt. of each pmt. (needs to be entered as negative quantity) [pv] = optional; commencing whole [variety] = optional; timing of payment (1 if compensated @ beg. of for each.; 2 if @ stop)
Present Price
wherever fee = periodic price (if compounding monthly, this can be the yearly rate/twelve) nper = complete durations (if compounded regular, This may be a complete num. of yrs * twelve) pmt = to have an annuity, the amt. of each pmt. (need to be entered as negative number) [fv] = optional; ending whole [type] = optional; timing of payment (one if compensated @ beg. of for each.; two if @ stop)
Other (Sophisticated) Time Price Formulation
There can be another, a lot more sophisticated, Time Value of Funds (TVM) formulation and ideas. Essentially the most handy contain the rise on the annuity or perpetuity. One example is, in its place to a stream of any regular sum like $a hundred as time passes, what happens if the amount While using the payout or earnings grew utilizing a certain fee Every period of time? Resources which assistance even though using evaluation these different types of choices could be In particular important. If by way of example, you're planning to put money into a constructing, you then plan to lease, it truly is not likely the lease payments which you cost your tenants will proceed an identical for countless yrs into your potential. As an alternative, It can be possible you would perform into their design and likewise the eventual deal periodic escalations within the payments. These, together with other State-of-the-art ideas, will probably be protected in an extremely later publish/article. For now, I hope you use a superior knowledge from the Time Price of Funds, and all from the electrical power contained within.

The Journey Here
OK, I know this is backing up but I wanted to share about the journey to Santa Rosa.
Have you ever felt a resistance against you trying to get to do something? Let's take a view at a few pics:
Do you see that icicle hanging from the roof of the tunnel?
First of all, the drive from Idaho to Oregon was like the wind was always against us. But what was really fun was going over the pass from Sweet Home to Klamath Falls. We should have known what we were getting into when we woke up to snow on the ground. When we made it to the pass, I we drove by a bunch of cars parked on the side of the road and a hole in one area where a car had gone over the bank and people were getting rescued.
So I come to a point where I knew I needed to put chains on. I go to pull over and we start slowly sliding into the other lane. Then I look in front of us and there's an RV doing the same thing siding back at us.
I quickly get out the chains and try to put them on (we were hoping to return them for a refund because we didn't have to use them…oh well). Thanks to the awesome state trooper, we got them on and on our way before anymore sliding mayhem.
The trip from K-Falls to Santa Rosa was uneventful even though there was a light powdering in the morning.
Now we're here, the temp is in the 70's. And it's awesome to see the sun.

Lou Trivino picked the fifth and sixth innings of Sunday�s Atlantic Collegiate Baseball League game to work on his changeup.
With the Quakertown Blazers comfortably ahead and Trivino�s curveball and slider especially effective, the tall right-hander figured it was a good chance to experiment.
The next thing Trivino knew, he was walking out to the mound for the bottom of the seventh and heard one of the North Jersey Eagles say, �Come on � let�s break up the no-hitter.�
�I said, �What? I have a no-hitter?� � said Trivino in a telephone conversation Wednesday from his famly�s West Rockhill Township home.
Trivino had been unsure if a hard-hit ball in the first inning was ruled a hit or an error and didn�t give a potential no-hitter a second thought.?
Trivino, aided by catcher Chad Warga, completed the seven-inning no-hitter, striking out seven and walking three along the way.
�It was cool,� Trivino said. �It�s cool to get a no-hitter in a pretty good league. It�s not like teams are just randomly throwing guys out there.�
Trivino, whose last no-hitter was as a senior at Upper Bucks Christian (where he was a two-time conference MVP), became the first player in Blazers� history, which dates to 1977 as the Allentown Wings, to throw a solo no-hitter.
The other two Quakertown no-hitters were combined efforts by Mo Sanford and Bob Grantz (1986) and Jared Trout, Bob Truskey and Jim Gendaszek (2001).
�He just dominated that team from first pitch to last,� said first-year manager Lee Saverio, whose 17-19 Blazers have clinched a playoff berth prior to Saturday afternoon�s home doubleheader against the Staten Island Tide that ends the regular season.
To top it off, Trivino likes the changeup so much that it�s become his �new favorite pitch.�
The no-hitter was just the latest strong performance by the 19-year-old Trivino, a former Pennridge Legion standout who was named MVP of the Region 2 Tournament last summer and earned the team�s only win at the Great Lakes National Regional with a complete-game performance.
Trivino, who is heading into his sophomore year at Slippery Rock University, is the ace of the Blazers� staff. He has compiled a 5-1 record for Quakertown with a 1.47 ERA and 45 strikeouts in 43 innings.
�He�s been everything as advertised,� Saverio said. �He�s been our No. 1 guy all year. He throws strikes, he�s got good stuff and he battles.
�With him starting a (playoff game next week), we have a chance.�
The other highlight this summer for the 6-foot-5, 234-pound Trivino was pitching an inning for the East in the July 11 ACBL All-Star Game at Coney Island Field.
�It was pretty sweet,� Trivino said. �The field is absolutely amazing � it�s like 500 feet away from the beach. It was an awesome experience. I was grateful to be there.�
Trivino�s memorable summer was made possible, in part, by his excellent freshman year at Slippery Rock. He went 4-1 with a 2.53 ERA, gave up 43 hits, struck out 57 and didn�t allow a home run in 53 1/3 innings.
Trivino had 10 strikeouts in seven innings in winning his collegiate over Tiffin (permitting just two unearned runs) and also shut out Lock Haven for six innings en route to receiving All-Pennsylvania State Athletic Conference second-team honors.
�It definitely helped my confidence (with the Blazers),� Trivino said. �I had three games in the middle of the season where I didn�t throw well, but I had three or four good starts at the end and threw well in the first two or three games in the ACBL. It kind of snowballed from there.�
As an added incentive, Trivino is dedicating the rest of the season and his baseball career to grandfather/namesake Louis, who died June 16 at the age of 77.
�He was always there,� Trivino said.
While Trivino has heard from a few Division I schools interested in getting him to transfer from Division II Slippery Rock, he plans on staying put.
�I�m happy with Slippery Rock,� Trivino said. �I was talking to a scout (Tuesday) and asked if it�d be good to switch to Division I school. He said, �Honestly, no. If you go to Division I, you have to sit out a year.� �
For Trivino, that�d mean he couldn�t be drafted until he�s 22, rather than the 21 he�s on course to be after his junior year at Slippery Rock.
�They�d rather see you young,� Trivino said.
And, make no mistake, Trivino wants to play at the next level.
�I always wanted to be a major-league player as a kid,� Trivino said. �A decent amount of scouts talk to me. Hopefully, if I keep progressing, start to work out, get my velocity up and become a little more consistent, I have a good shot to go further.�
With a fastball that�s been clocked at 94 mph among his four pitches, Trivino�s size and other intangibles, Saverio, who has done some scouting for the Mets for the past three years, said he�s been told by �a number of scouts� that they�re keeping an eye on Trivino.
�If he continues to develop and go uphill, he could be a (pro) prospect,� Saverio said. �He�s got good stuff. He works really hard. He�s got the body.�

Moderate to Severe Scoliosis Treatment Options
Treatment at Renew Chiropractic in Lakewood
Most children and adults with moderate to severe scoliosis are told there is nothing that can be done accept for scoliosis brace treatment or scoliosis surgery. Dr. Jumper's Scoliosis program in Lakewood was specially designed to offer patients an alternative scoliosis treatment that may reduce and stabilize curvature of the spine. The treatment mechanics are quite simple, first reduce the soft tissue resistance created by adaptation and time, reposition the spinal column in a decompressed state while delivering vibrations to cause an afferent neurological input stimulation to disengage the brain's muscle control and memory, and then reprogram the brain/muscle control to reposition the spinal column in a new straighter alignment.
The use of specialized equipment, Biophysics, Mirror image vibration, Chirometrx, synaptogenesis-neuropalsticity adjustments to create a decrease in soft tissue resistance allows the somewhat rigid curvature to become more flexible. Dr. Jumper's treatment does not create pain but merely slight pressure and pulling. Once the spine has lowered its resistance to change then traction de-rotation forces can elongate and may reduce the existing scoliosis. After the spine has been stretched and untwisted then muscle recruitment is needed to hold the spine in a straighter position. The use of new innovative spinal resistance training equipment known as scoliosis cantilevers are place on the ribcage and torso while the patient balances on a vestibular disc, a rubber disc filled with air about two feet wide. This cantilever causes a pulling force on the spine and the body reacts to by contracting very deep small muscle which in turn changes the spines position in gravity. When this is done repetitiously the spine may adapt to the forces and change.
Looking for a Scoliosis treatment in Lakewood Colorado? Dr. Jason Jumper at Renew Chiropractic in Lakewood can help you treat scoliosis and put you on the road to health again. Call Dr. Jumper in Lakewood for a FREE, no obligation Scoliosis Chiropractic evaluation. Call 720-493-5885 TODAY!

Should next year's local elections change the rotten-to-the-core Herefordshire Council, the autocratic authority's all-powerful Central Planning Committee should be the first to get a thorough clean-out.
Two disgracefully lop-sided decisions were whistled through this Spring: the fatuous 'link road to nowhere' and a lacklustre housing development in the grounds of the listed Caradoc Court, near Ross-on-Wye.
After ruling that It's Our City founder, Cllr Mark Hubbard, had 'a prejudicial interest' in the outcome and expelling him from the Brockington debate, the 14-person committee (10 Tories, including the chair and vice-chair) took less than three hours to nod through the £14-million road, despite the committee receiving an unprecedented 83 letters of objection.
Even more scandalous was the planning department's contemptuous treatment of Hereford Civic Society's 32-page technical analysis of the follies of the Link Road, which had taken the society over 250 member hours to research, write and publish–its existence warranted a mere eight words in the committee papers!
One member of the public who was given leave to speak under the three minute rule was local photographer Keith James, whose business premises directly faces the new road's junction with the A49. Mr James–who was never sent a formal notification of the planning application–said that despite his constant barrage of letters to the road's promoter ESG, he was first paid a visit by planners just 48 hours before the Brockington meeting!
No fewer than six planning committee members raised the matter of the horrendous traffic problems which the new cross-city road will impose on residential roads such as Barrs Court and Bodenham. But the two people who should have been present to speak up for their constituents, Aylestone ward councillors Nick Vaughan and Brian Wilcox, were conspicuous by their absence.
Two weeks later the committee was back to give the green light to a complex of six bland, executive-style detached houses, to be built in the grounds of Caradoc Court, the partially-restored 17th century mansion at Sellack, which was mysteriously gutted by a fire in 1986. Even a 300-signature local petition failed to impress the committee, which approved the scheme … submitted by the property's owner, local Tory county councillor Harry Bramer.

HONOLULU/NY Just hours before President Donald Trump's revised travel ban was set to enter effect, a U.S. federal decide in Hawaii on Wednesday issued an emergency halt to the order's implementation. Then there are these travel businesses which make large profits from this extra service and offer them to travelers as free extras when they plan a trip with the company. A Peru surf trip typically gives distinctive and empty surf throughout every season as completely different places are exposed to northern and southerly waves. For any travel or outing plan Buses are considered to be the best mode of travel.
The March order by contrast gave 10 days' notice to travelers and immigration officials. I write travel relationship blogs to assist folks find one another who hate to travel alone. Going across the Seine River or just alongside the city canals make you realize and dream how it was within the olden time the place individuals travel by means of this river. This demand keeps the associated fee up. To get a deal in your trip it's a must to guide your stay throughout the non-peak days and use transportation that will have you at your travel destination a bit later than chances are you'll prefer.

I have some happy news to share. First, Mask will be out earlier than I anticipated, on August 17! And second, The Hired Man will be out in October.
Mask is on the DSP coming soon page: here.
The book has beautiful typset masks on each chapter heading and this Anne Cain cover. PB made it a little smaller, but you can see leaves hinted on the arms, harkening to the vegetation that is swarming over the gothic-type Southern mansion.
Click on this to see it larger. This is the cover for Mask. Really, I have to say, this is a beautiful cover and I'm very happy with it. It's lush and sensual and completely in character for Nick, an artist who forgets to get a hair cut. I feel like I lucked out big time twice with cover art.
Can't wait for this book to be out.
On my LJ Jan_revealed here, I will be running a raffle to celebrate the book coming out as I did with The Janitor. Friend the journal to keep track.
And you can check out my website to see what I have in the works, with excerpts, blurbs and more: http://janiceirving.com/

Info Pack
home > st. vincent >
Prices from: £ 285 000 Completion date: October 2008
Property Description:
'Buccament Bay' resort in the exclusive and unspoilt Caribbean island of St Vincent. Not only does this complex offer a beautiful home in paradise, it also offers one of the finest investment opportunities in recent years with prices a quarter of those in neighbouring St Lucia and Barbados.
St Vincent is a stunningly beautiful Caribbean country that has remained largely unspoilt from the ravages of tourism. Up until recently, there has not been a major international airport on the island and the country has been able to remain an exclusive and relatively undiscovered jewel of the Caribbean.
All Cabanas will be supplied fully furnished to a standard fitting of their expected five star status. Each Cabana comes with a guaranteed 10% rental return per annum for two years. Owners will have full freehold ownership and can use their property for up to one month within a year. We offer:
We do believe that the strategy of the perfectly designed interior incorporates professional approach and profound knowledge of the contemporary interior standards.
The appropriate furniture means not only style and comfort, but also a steady investment - it may be a great advantage if you are planning a long or short-term letting of your property - the elegant interior will make it preferable and will help you receive higher rental income and obtain repeat business.
At your convenience, BG Decor http://www.bgdecor.com/ provides exclusive furnishing packages, completed up to the highest standards and approved by all major tour operators for rental purposes.
RENTAL The developer is offering a guaranteed 10% rental return per annum - net of all management fees - based on the purchase price for the first two years, followed by a 5 year 50% room rate share. Therefore, for the first two years after you take ownership of your property, you are guaranteed a 10% back on the price you paid. After this time, you will receive 50% of the profits generated by your property and the rest will be place back into the resort Unlike some other resorts, even though you are guaranteed a rental return, you can still use your property free for up to two weeks per year and one of those weeks can be in high season. GOVERNMENT INCENTIVES
FURNISHING All properties come fully furnished (unless the client does not wish the property to be entered into the rental scheme) to a standard expected of a five star resort. The furnishings are being managed by the same team who furnished Sandy Lane and the Colony Club in Barbados and 'Le Sport' in St Lucia.
FINANCE Finance can be arranged up to 70% of the value of the property on the final four payments. The developers are giving clients the option by which after the first 30% has been paid, the rest of the stage payments can be made as follows: They are appointing an independent quantity surveyor who will be inspecting the works undertaken at each stage and on this report the bank will forward them the funds related to the work undertaken. The customer will be charged the interest only that relates to the amount of money that the bank releases. The interest rate will be the rate charged at the time by the bank (currently 9.75% pegged to the US base rate). This process gives you the peace of mind that the work is progressing well and that the bank is watching and looking after your investment. Once the property is ready, a further mortgage can be taken out from an alternative Caribbean bank or the developer will continue their product on a repayment basis. Finance is also available for the first 30% deposit, with the interest payments being paid by the developer for you until the property is completed. This amount is then placed on the final mortgage, meaning you can buy a property in the Caribbean without having to put any money down at all! Ring 0800 321 32 07 or email us on firstname.lastname@example.com now to reserve your apartment today and claim your free viewing trip!
St Vincent is a stunningly beautiful Caribbean country that has remained largely unspoilt from the ravages of tourism. Up until recently, there has not been a major international airport on the island and the country has been able to remain an exclusive and relatively undiscovered jewel of the Caribbean. Historically, St Vincent has been an agricultural nation, with bananas as its main source of income. However, having recently lost its subsidies for banana production, the country is now looking for new income streams, with tourism being the obvious next step considering the incredible popularity of its neighbouring islands at the top end of the tourism market. A new International Airport, which is scheduled for completion in 2011 and the fact that the English Cricket team are playing their warm up games on the island during the 2007 Caribbean World Cup have both fuelled an interest in St Vincent and as such the government have spearheaded this ambitious and remarkable project. There is no capital gains tax in St Vincent. Due to the government initiative to increase tourism on the island, there will also be no income tax due on profits from the Buccament Bay Resort for twenty years from completion. 'Buccament Bay Resort' will nestle in the beautiful bay of the same name. The resort is superbly positioned on the Western Coast with the existing Airport at Kingstown an approximate 20 minute drive with flights from Barbados, Antigua, Grenada, St Lucia and Tobago. The proposed Airport at Argyle to the south east will be a further 40 minute drive. The finished resort will have a mixture of properties, from studio apartments to four bedroom villas residing in their own landscaped grounds. Facilities will include a gymnasium, full hotel facilities, pools, spa and casino. An 18 hole golf course is planned just 10 minutes away. The completion of the resort is scheduled for 2008 and will consist of 190 one and two bedroom Cabanas (Villas) including nineteen plantation houses, all with their own plunge pools and veranda. The resort will also have four apartment buildings, and owners in building 2 can choose not to enter their properties into the rental pool and use them all year round. The whole complex will be run as a hotel, much as the famous 'Plantation Beach' in St Lucia. This provides an excellent investment opportunity and the fulfilment of a lifelong dream to own property in the Caribbean. The sand is currently volcanic but the finest white sand is being imported from Guyana to replace the existing beach.

Cherry Limeade Cupcakes
this recipe pretty much, but used a lemon cake mix instead of scratch. I was in such a cooking and baking kick, and now I'm......not! Ha! I think I just get bored and move onto something else. Now it's getting ready for a homeschool curriculum consignment sale (pricing, tagging) and getting ready to do art classes again- Yay! It has been too long. Hope you are having a sweet and fun summer.
P.S. my favorite verses right now:
Psalm 62:5-8
For God alone, O my soul, wait in silence,
for my hope is from him.
He only is my rock and my salvation,
my fortress; I shall not be shaken.
On God rests my salvation and my glory;
my mighty rock, my refuge is God.
Trust in him at all times, O people;
pour out your heart before him;
God is a refuge for us. Selah

With Memorial Day launching the unofficial start of summer, it's a good day to kick-start your family activities for the season. In addition to summer camp and trips to the beach, there are many local areas and activities to keep in mind.
This Saturday, June 4, is National Trails Day, an annual celebration of trail activities across the country: hiking, biking, paddling, horseback riding, trail running, and bird watching and more. Several locations in the area are hosting events – the City of Ridgefield celebrates with the Big Paddle – an interpretive tour by canoe, kayak, or even paddleboard along Lake River to the confluence of the Columbia River. Registration for the tour is required, but there are other free activities along the waterfront.
But you don't have to wait until Saturday to get outdoors. This area offers many close-by opportunities for hiking, biking, kayaking, or just strolling along the beach to throw a stick for your dog. Some of our favorites include:
Cape Horn, a rigorous hike along the Gorge that offers amazing panoramic views of the Columbia River and Gorge. Head East on WA State Route 14 to signs at milepost 26.4.
Sunset Falls Park, along the East Fork of the Lewis River. Kayak along the East Fork, take an easy hike to the falls, or spend the night camping.
Lacamas Heritage Trail is a relatively easy, but extremely scenic hiking/biking path along Lacamas Lake. Parking at either end – off Goodwin Road, or Lake Rd near the Lacamas Lake Lodge.
Captain William Clark Park is a very popular picnicking and swimming area along the Columbia River in Washougal. Cottonwood Beach can get a little crowded on holidays, but a short hike East around Cottonwood Point offers more privacy.
However you decide to launch your summer activities, Clark County offers many opportunities for views of Nature as Neighbors.
