Written for its 150th birthday by John Hedges
This is the first verse of a poem by the Rev W B KIRK
of St Peter's from 1882 to 1900. It is contained
in a book of poems about Ashton, published only a year
after Dr KIRK's induction. Perhaps we should be
grateful that Dr KIRK describes his book as a "few
verses," for some of it is very poor poetry, but
there is no doubt about his interest in Ashton and his
appreciation of St Peter's church. The poem about
St Peter's is long – twenty-three pages –
by one who had learnt in one year a great deal about local
folk. He certainly realized how much St Peter's
was loved:
"My reasoning for describing
St Peter's is merely
Because the parishioners
Love their church so dearly."
Dr KIRK is remembered as one who "preached Jesus
only" – according to the memorial tablet.
There could be no better memorial than that for a priest
of God.
The full list of incumbents of St Peter's Church
The foundation stone of this "Gothic
edifice" was laid by Dr LAW, Bishop of Chester,
on 24th October, 1821. It is one of the "Waterloo"
churches. The Napoleonic Wars following the French Revolution
had ended in 1815, and to show their gratitude for victory,
the Parliamentary Commissioners voted one million pounds
to the Church of England. Large, imposing churches were
to be built with this money, so that English people might
see how grateful the country was for peace at last.
St Peter's received £12,000
from the Parliamentary Commissioners, leaving only £2,000
to be raised locally. A medal struck in 1821 states that
"the area of the church will be 142 feet long by
65 feet wide and will be capable of containing 1,800 persons.
The height of the tower will be 128 feet."
Francis GOODWIN, of London, was the architect
and he was able to see his work completed on 12th December,
1824, the date of its consecration. As the population
grew and more houses were built for the mill workers,
St Peter's was to serve the people of the western
side of Ashton. They were hard times for the working class
people. The Napoleonic Wars, the end of which caused St
Peter's to be built, had left England a colossal
National Debt. Rates and taxes were extremely high. And
working conditions in factory and field were such that
would never be allowed today. It was not unusual for men
to starve to death.
The Church of England generally did not
show up well as a champion of the workers' cause.
Usually, the parish churches remained remote from the
poor, leaving hope in the hands of the Methodist Movement.
Many people will have looked across the open spaces towards
the large, impressive St Peter's and noticed the
employers going there to their very special pews. Probably
they thought of the Church as they thought of the boss:
"Master was master then; man had now't to
do wi' it."
The Rev John HUTCHINSON, assistant curate
at the Parish Church of St Michel and All Angles, was
the first Vicar of St Peter's. He was able to use
chalices and patens presented by the Parish Church and
these are still in use today (1974).
If the Church was sometimes remote from
the workers, it was soon to come in contact with their
The Welbeck school was built in 1835,
the Victoria Street school in 1871. Many children
of the area were educated at one or both of these
buildings and thus came to know the Church from an
early age. Few were to become worshippers, yet none
can have failed to benefit in some way from the Christian
education received. Both schools have now been replaced
by the building on Oxford Street.
People visiting St Peter's church comment on:
Rev William Ogden
One hears many stories of how full the church
used to be on Sundays. Church attendance was a more recognised
characteristic of family life in the last century, but
St Peter's has been blessed with a succession of
fine Vicars. William OGDEN and William KIRK were noted
preachers. The former's gravestone says of him that
"he consistently preached and taught the single
doctrine of the truth as it is in Jesus."
The Rev T W PUGHE-MASON is remembered by
many parishioners. He was the Vicar from 1900-1923; and
started disastrously! Unwittingly turning East for the
Creed, as is the custom in the larger part of the Church
of England, he caused a furore. The congregation had been
used to Dr KIRK's Irish Protestantism. No doubt
they feared that a Papist had come amongst them! The parish
divided into those who remained faithful to St Peter''
and its new Vicar and those who left to form the Victoria
Street Mission.
Rev Pughe-Morgan
This Mission continued in existence long
after Mr PUGHE-MORGAN had ceased being Vicar. It succeeded
in bringing the Gospel to the southern half of the parish.
People felt "at home" there, and left the
church to the monied people who lived on Manchester Road
and Richmond Street.
Nevertheless, Mr PUGHE-MORGAN exercised
a deeply spiritual ministry and many still remember him
with gratitude. Whilst he was Vicar, St Peter's
raised large amounts of money. The schools were improved.
The churchyard walks were asphalted. The church was re-floored,
and oak panelled. The chancel was raised. Electric lighting
was installed. The church was redecorated. The baptistry
was relaid in mosaic. The bells were restored . . . What
a record!
Mr PUGHE-MORGAN also started the parish
magazine; organised a very popular Church Lads'
Brigade; and arranged for a Mission to be conducted in
the parish. In 1920, the Electoral Roll was formed, and
the first Parochial Church Council elected.
All was going well. It was the hey-day of
the cotton trade. Edward VII was King. There was a feeling
of well-being in the air . . . The Great War of 1914-18
soon disturbed all that. So many lives were lost or ruined.
Embittered by the war, men lost faith in God and gave
up interest in the Church. The downward trend was starting.
In the midst of all this trouble, there
came the great explosion from a munitions factory at the
bottom of William Street. Forty parishioners were killed,
many injured, and the damage to property was extensive.
It is probably the greatest tragedy to hit this parish.
Already badly shaken by war, the people now received this
cruel blow. The hearses gathered at the Market Ground
for the funeral service.
Through all this, Mr PUGHE-MORGAN ably led
his parishioners, proving himself their spiritual leader
through good and ill.
In 1923, the Rev A J PHILLIPS was inducted
to the living. He stayed for four years, to be replaced
by the man who stayed longer than any other. L A OWEN
was Vicar here for twenty-seven years and is spoken of
affectionately by all who knew him.
Mr OWEN provided the stability, necessary
after Mr PHILLIPS' short ministry and the upheavals
of the closing years of Mr PUGHE-MORGAN's ministry.
He inherited the problem of a divided church (the Victoria
Mission) and a divided Sunday School (Welbeck Street and
Victoria Street). Much of the rivalry between the two
schools was anything but friendly. Mr OWEN came as a peacemaker.
Over the years he earned the love and respect of the majority
of the parishioners. They thought of him as their "father
in God."
But the Second World War came and crippled
faith and churchgoing much further. The Vicar's
son was killed in action, a shock from which Mr OWEN never
fully recovered. His ministry was not the same after the
War and he eventually retired in 1953. He was a great
Robin BARSLEY came "to get things
going again." He must have had a hard time following
Mr OWEN, but it is amazing how much was done in his ministry.
The church had been allowed to deteriorate and a weekly
"Save the Church" collection raised £5,000
in two years. St Peter's was cured of dry rot, redecorated,
and generally made beautiful once again.
The next task was the construction of a
vicarage to replace the large building on M<anchester
Road. This was completed in 1957, a fine house, far more
welcoming that the old one.
A Christian Giving Campaign was held and
the Envelope Scheme came into being. This had a highly
satisfactory start but tailed off over the years, mainly
due to people not fully understanding the meaning of Christian
Stewardship. We give our money, and our whole lives, to
God, in response to his complete giving of himself to
us in the person of his own Son.
This was mainly material progress. David
SUTCLIFFE came to be Vicar in 1961 with a full grasp of
the Gospel and an intention of bringing as many as possible
into a knowledge of the Christian life. He made a great
impact on young people. The time was ripe for spiritual
renewal and the congregation grew in numbers. At last
the Church of St Peter's began to be a church of
the people and this was helped a lot by the establishment
of the weekly Parish Communion, to which all the faithful
are welcome to partake of the Body and Blood of our Lord
David SUTCLIFFE gave of himself so
completely for the people of St Peter's, that it
was inevitable that his would be a short incumbency. He
left in 1965, to be replaced by the writer of this booklet.
The work of worship and ministry goes on. People are baptized
and married and, at the last, buried from, this grand
old church.

text: Dear Roger, Thanks for your kind off-list reply. Of the flurry of thoughts that I attempted to squeeze into my preceding message, I left out one that I believe bears being mentioned too: On 20.03.2011 14:43, Costello, Roger L. wrote: > [Definition] Literalist: A person who adheres to the literal representation of a statement or law; a person who translates text literally. [...] I think that -- completely independently of whether you are right about what the Spec says about attributes -- it is a methodologically bad move to invoke the wording of the original specification at the point where the object that was specified in it has developed way beyond it (to a point that many on this list would probably call being over-ripe). If I understand the original intentions correctly, the XML spec was supposed to be skeletal in many aspects, so that the skeleton could be adorned in ways not yet envisioned back in 1998. One can argue whether the original skeleton was constructed well, and one can argue about the suitability, usability and mutual relationships of the subsequent adornments, but one shouldn't suddenly jump on their table and cry "Halt! Mend your ways! The Original Intention was different, you've twisted it!". I believe that the original intention was meant to be underspecified, and anyway, we're looking at evolving technology in a world of evolving challenges that the technology needs to adapt to. In other words, I'd say that in this very case, there is no place for being a Literalist, unless what you intend is historical *de*scription of the evolving field -- but, crucially, not *pre*scription.

WordPress Reaches 25% Website Penetration
9 November 2015Matt Mullenweg, Automattic CEO:
it goes up and down through the course of a month, but it's still a pretty fun milestone that we can now say about one in four websites are now powered by the scrappy open source underdog with its roots stretching all the way back to a single person in Corsica, France. We should be comfortably past 25% by the end of the year.
The big opportunity is still the 57% of websites that don't use any identifiable CMS yet, and that's where I think there is still a ton of growth for us (and I'm also rooting for all the other open source CMSes).
If you have a Wordpress account, you should log in and just browse around the web a bit, looking for the black WordPress header at the top of pages. The reach of open-source can be truly incredible. It's insane how often you see it when browsing, on sites that look nothing like WordPress installs at all. It also shows why it is such a common target and attack vector for hackers; find a zero-day exploit in WordPress and you compromise the security of a quarter of the web.

"For I know the plans I have for you," declares the Lord, "plans to prosper you, and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future." (Jeremiah 29:11)
As you get older, you begin to have more and more people ask you questions like "what do you want to do with your life?" and "what are your long-term goals?" These questions can cause a great deal of anxiety if you aren't quite sure that the future holds for you. You want to follow God's plan for you but you might still be unsure of what that is. Really no matter your age this is something that almost all Christians struggle with.
How do you go about discovering God's plan for your life? There are several vital keys that will help you discover His Will. By connecting with God, trusting in Him completely, and surrendering yourself to Him He will begin to reveal the path He has for you.

The Unthinkable
By Ann
Helena stopped on the landing of the steps outside the apartment building to stretch in preparation for her jog. As she placed her foot on the banister and leaned over her extended leg, the brunette noticed Alice being helped from the backseat of a limo, and if she turned her ear toward the street, she could just hear the conversation between the two women.
"Wow, that was fun," Alice offered to the mystery woman who graciously thanked the blonde for the compliment.
Smiling, Alice added, "I had a really good time."
"So did I," the woman responded in a low tone, and Helena suddenly wished for bionic hearing.
Nervously, Alice offered, "You know, it was ... I'm glad I found you," and smiling, she turned to cross the street.
"All right, Alice. See you around," was called out to the blonde as she stepped up on the curb, heading toward the stairs just as Helena was bounding down.
"Okay," Alice called back, and facing Helena, she sighed, "Whew."
Smiling, Helena greeted, "Ah, well, well, well. Someone had a busy night"
"Yeah, I was working," the blonde explained with a grin.
"Working?" Helena teased with a smirk.
"Yeah, I was working pretty hard," Alice replied, still grinning from ear to ear.
Helena merely laughed as she turned toward the street to begin her run. "Ah..ha, ha."
"All right, see ya...Okay," Alice offered as she picked up the newspaper and started up the stairs.
Helena adjusted her headphones and began a slow jog down the street where Alice's apparent date was leaning against her car.
Alice began to read the paper and immediately noticed Helena had stopped and turned back towards the woman. She watched in shock as the two women shook hands.
"Oh... my God. Really. Really, Papi," the blonde said in disgust, and folding her paper she turned to head up the steps, muttering, "Wow, that girl just loves..."
Back from her jog, Helena stepped into the apartment, ready for a long hot shower, but she stopped in her tracks when she saw Alice sitting on the couch facing the door. It was as if she'd been waiting for the brunette to return.
"Have a nice jog?" Alice asked sarcastically with a fake smile plastered on her face.
Shrugging, Helena replied, "Yes. It was pleasant enough."
"Oh, really. Did you by any chance cover an extra mile or so inside ... oh I don't know, let's say a limousine?"
"What?" Helena questioned, wondering what in the world her roommate was referring to.
Clapping her hands together, Alice replied, "I know. Why don't we just log onto my internet site and check out the chart? I wonder who Papi has slept with now."
"Well, you go right ahead. I'm going to take a shower," Helena stated, turning to head for the bathroom.
"Oh, no you don't. I want you sitting right next to me when we pull up Papi's chart," Alice demanded as she stood and blocked the brunette's path.
Putting her hands on her hips, Helena countered, "You think I slept with her, don't you? Well, for your information, I didn't; however, I think maybe it's a good idea to pull her chart up to see what activity took place overnight. So, let's boot up the computer, shall we?"
"You really didn't sleep with her?" Alice whispered, afraid that if she'd said it aloud then her fears would become a reality.
"No, Alice. I didn't. What did you want to happen? You sleep with her and then I sleep with her? Do you want us to be linked by a single person? We're already linked by two people. You slept with Bette, Bette slept with Tina, and I slept with Tina. Isn't that close enough?" Helena asked, unsure where the conversation was headed.
"Yes, I mean no, oh...I don't know what I mean," Alice offered as she turned and walked back to the couch.
Sighing, Helena moved to sit next to her friend, and placing her hand on the blonde's back, she began to draw light circles, waiting for Alice to regain her composure.
After a few minutes, Helena asked, "Alice? We're friends, right?"
The blonde nodded her head up and down in reply, letting the brunette know she was listening on some level.
"Okay, then, correct me if I'm wrong, but it seems to me as if you think I cheated on you. Sort of like if we're a couple."
Alice's head snapped up, and she opened her mouth to deny Helena's allegations, but she found herself unable to speak as she realized that she was indeed feeling jealous; however, she had no idea why she felt this way.
"You know, Alice, I'm not sure how I would feel if you'd slept with Papi either. I think we've become close friends so quickly that we're a little protective of each other. So, it's not a bad thing that we're looking out for one another," Helena explained, moving her hand to the back of the blonde's neck as she stood.
"Hey, why don't I take a quick shower and then we can head over to the Planet for a bite to eat?" The brunette suggested, deciding that the conversation was turning too serious, too fast.
Relieved beyond belief, Alice replied, "That's a great idea."
Turning, Helena headed down the hallway toward the bathroom, leaving the confused blonde alone to explore her feelings.
Thirty minutes later, Alice leaned her head back against the couch and muttered, "Great. Now, I've done the unthinkable. I've gone and fallen for another friend."

Dr. Peiwen Fei awarded RO1 grant from the National Cancer InstituteBy Chantal Jackson
HONOLULU, HI - The University of Hawaii Cancer Center is happy to announce that on June 12, 2014, Dr. Peiwen Fei was the recipient of the RO1 grant in the amount of $1,577,000.00 from the National Cancer Institute (NCI) for her project "Molecular Insights into the Fanconi Anemia Tumor Suppressor Signaling Pathway." The project began on July 1, 2014. Dr. Fei earned her medical degree (M.D.) from the Xu Zhou Medical College in Xu Zhou, China and her PhD in Pathology and Cell Biology from Thomas Jefferson University in Philadelphia, PA. She completed her fellowship programs in the Howard Hughes Medical Institute (HHMI), University of Pennsylvania and National Institute on Aging (NIA), National Institutes of Health (NIH) for Cancer Biology and Cancer Genetics respectively. Currently she is an associate professor in the cancer biology program at University of Hawaii Cancer Center. Her grant funded project focuses on a rare genetic human disease called Fanconi Anemia (FA). Due to the high incidence of cancer in those with this condition, it is suggested that the FA signaling pathway is a tumor suppressor pathway. However, it is not clear how this pathway operates in human tumorigenesis. The objective of Dr. Fei's study is to employ FA as a genetic model system to discern the following: FA signaling pathway, how FA proteins mediate tumor suppression, and to examine the possibility of targeting this pathway as a therapeutic approach in cancer treatment. These studies have the potential to improve our current understanding of the pathogenesis of human cancer. These studies could offer insights into anti-cancer actions of tumor suppressors. They could also lead to the development of additional methods for the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of human cancers.

New genetic risk factor identified in a large trans-ethnic genome-wide association studyBy Chantal Jackson
HONOLULU, HI - In a large collaborative effort, University of Hawai'i Cancer Center's Dr. LoĂŻc Le Marchand has highlighted a new association between colorectal cancer risk and a common genetic variant. Dr. Le Marchand is a professor in the Cancer Epidemiology Program at University of Hawai'i Cancer Center, as well as a clinical professor in Public Health at John A. Burns School of Medicine, University of Hawai'i at Manoa. His research focuses upon the interaction between genetic and lifestyle factors which contribute to increased cancer risk among ethnic/racial populations in Hawai'i and California. With a specific focus on colorectal, lung and breast cancer, the aim of his research is to better understand the causes of cancer and develop new means of prevention.
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the second leading cause of cancer deaths and the third most common cancer in the United States. Although it has been established that genetics play an essential role in CRC susceptibility, genome-wide association studies (GWASs) have primarily been conducted within European-descent populations; furthermore, these studies have only identified 30 common risk variants, which is significantly fewer than for prostate or breast cancer.
Le Marchand notes, "We have seen varying risks of developing colorectal cancer associated with ethnicity. In particular, an increased risk of colorectal cancer has been observed among Japanese individuals who migrated to Hawai'i and their descendants; furthermore, in Japan since 1950, there has also been a notable increased risk in colorectal cancer development". Due to this, Le Marchand has conducted decade-long studies to explain this susceptibility associated with the incorporation of a Westernized lifestyle.
To better understand the genetic basis of non-familial colorectal cancer (CRC), Le Marchand and his team performed genome-wide association studies in 2,627 cases and 3,797 controls of Japanese ancestry, and in 1,894 cases and 4,703 controls of African ancestry. They observed an association between CRC risk and a common variant in the VTI1A gene in both populations. They, then, reproduced their findings in a large collaborative study of European descent populations.
This finding demonstrates the usefulness of multiethnic studies in identifying new genetic risk factors. "The next step is to demonstrate that genetic risk variants, considered together, are sufficiently predictive of risk to help in determining who should be screened by colonoscopy", says Dr. Le Marchand. The use of these genetic markers, along with more typical risk factor information, may facilitate in more efficient screening. The study: "Trans-ethnic genome-wide association study of colorectal cancer identifies a new susceptibility locus in VTI1A," was published on August 8, 2014 in Nature Communications.

Angiogenin sheds light on bladder cancer biology and provides diagnostic valueby Chantal Jackson
HONOLULU, HI - University of Hawai'i Cancer Center's (UHCC) director of the Clinical and Translational Research program, Dr. Charles Rosser, has received the Center's October 2014 award for "Publication of the Month." The paper is: Miyake M, Goodison S, Lawton A, Gomes-Giacola, Rosser CJ, Angiogenin promotes tumoral growth and angiogenesis by regulating matrix metallopeptidase-2 expression via the ERK1/2 pathway, Oncogene, 2014, February 24, doi: 10.1038/onc.2014.2.
In this paper, Dr. Rosser and his team provide evidence for angiogenin (ANG) as a therapeutic target in bladder cancer. Specifically, these researchers have shown the importance in the ERK1/2 pathway in ANG's ability to promote both tumor growth and angiogenesis, essential in the spread of cancer.
One major area of focus at UHCC is to develop a clinically useful non-invasive method of diagnosing bladder cancer. Through this work, researchers have uncovered 10 biomarkers (combination of genes and proteins) that are abnormal in bladder cancer. ANG is one of these biomarkers. However, prior to the work leading to the paper cited above, the role of ANG in bladder cancer was not clear.
In this study, researchers checked and manipulated ANG levels in cells, both in the petri dish as well as in animals. From this, they determined that higher ANG levels promotes increased cancer cell growth. In particular, when ANG increases, it promotes an increase in matrix metallopeptidase-2 (MMP2). MMP2 breaks down the extracellular matrix which enables cell mobility, thus allowing cancer to spread. MMP2 also increases angiogenesis, essential for both tumor growth and metastasis.
The authors determined that the ERK1/2 pathway plays an integral role in tumor-growth progression and the spread of cancer. Dr. Charles Rosser explains, "This is a project that began in the clinic with the goal of finding a non-invasive way to test for bladder cancer. That is, whether voided urine could be tested to determine the likelihood that a person has bladder cancer. From this test, only persons with a higher likelihood of having bladder cancer would need to undergo invasive testing, such as cystoscopy and biopsy. We demonstrated that ANG is one of a panel of biomarkers capable of diagnosing bladder cancer. Next, we set out to leverage this new knowledge to better understand ANG's role in tumor growth and its possibility to serve as a new therapeutic target."
Through this work on the biology of ANG, these researchers have demonstrated that its presence in cells leads to a growth advantage, capable of further enhancing the tumor's environment to sustain and promote the growth of human cancers. The ultimate goal in this type of research is to identify ANG as a suitable therapeutic target, leading to new weapons in our fight against cancers.

Memo to our wives, girlfriends, sisters-in-law, mistresses and every one in between
Posted by Luminus on May 9, 2006
I got this in my email, it was so hilarious I just had to post it.
One proposition I have not had the courage to tackle in a 'rational' manner in the last couple of weeks is: choose between me and Arsenal. As most husbands would agree with me, the intimidating manner in which such ultimatum is usually posed leaves no room for any unpalatable decision.
But perhaps to prevent further trouble, especially in the coming crucial month, some husbands have got together and come up with this memo which I recommend to our darling wives. So that there may be peace in our homes:
- From 9 June to 9 July 2006, you should read the sports section of every newspaper so that you are aware of what is going on regarding the World Cup, and that way you will be able to join in the conversations. If you fail to do this, then you will be totally ignored.
- During the World Cup, the television is for us, your husbands, at all times, without any exceptions. If you have to pass by in front of the TV during a game, we don't mind, as long as you do it crawling on the floor and without distracting us. If you decide to stand nude in front of the TV, we won't even see you and please make sure you put clothes on right after. Because if you catch a cold, we won't have time to take you to the doctor or look after you lest we miss the next important match.
- During the games we will be blind, deaf and dumb, unless we require a refill of our drinks or need something to eat. We know you would not, at this most crucial period, expect us to listen to you, open the door, answer the telephone, or pick up the baby that just fell on the floor….It won't happen!
- You are welcome to sit with us to watch one game and you can talk to us during half-time but only when the commercials are on, and only if the half-time score is favourable. In addition, please note that we say 'one' game; hence do not use the World Cup as a nice cheesy excuse that we 'spend time together'.
- The daily World Cup highlights shown on TV every night are just as important as the games themselves. Do not even think about saying 'but you have already seen this…why don't you change the channel to something we can all watch?' We don't care if we have seen them or we haven't seen them, we want to see them again. Many times.
- Please, inform your friends NOT to have any babies, or any other child related parties or gatherings that require our attendance because: a) we will not go, b) we will not go, and c) we will not go!
- But, if a friend of ours invites us to his house on a Sunday to watch a game, we will be there in a flash.
- And finally, please save your expressions such as "Thank God the World Cup is only every four years". We are immune to these words. Because after the World Cup comes the Champions League, English Premiership, Spanish La Liga, Italian League, CAF Champions League, CAF Cup, Copa Liberterdores, WAFU CUP, COSAFA Castle Cup…

All her "Quotients" : She can carries herself well.
Confirmed: She can learn languages fast, efficient and fluent.
Good in Singing, Love beauty.
She hardly read books, and i am surprised she always have good results. Each time i told her if only she study harder her result should be excellent. Frankly, untill her
STPM she hardly hold a book to read. Now understand that she is a fast learner, high observation skill.
Yes, she learns thing fast and sharp.
Why she isn't good in sport i am surprised! she can hardly can throw a basketball that touches the net or play tennis(trained by coach) well.
Well now i know…her kinesthetic is very low. No wonder previously i always mad at her for being lazy.
Since she is Auditory, she has to pay full attention in all her lectures at her university. She told me she has taken up reading books…yeah! she need to enhance this side of her.
At first i am a little worried over whether her course is suitable or not, now assured, her intelligences is perfect for that field.
Learned and knowing each other characteristics we tend to be more understanding, supportive, tolerance and our relationship definitely is better.
Sometimes we do laugh at our weaknesses.
Conclusion: Worth the fees i paid to do this test?
Well it depends, For me .. A life time of understanding is priceless.
Secondary 4
SMK Sultan Abdul Aziz, Teluk Intan, Perak
What is his DMIT like?
Took the test end October 2008
Quantitative Chart: Very high TFRC
Brain Dominant: Left
AQ EQ CQ…good but AQ a little lower
Function Allocation: Highest in Management, Linguistic, Sound and Reasoning.
Learning Sensitivity: ATD 37/34
Fast learner, efficient performing ability, understanding new information and right brain within normal physiological range, stable and fair in term of observation skill, relatively fast in learning, agile in response and high level of perception.
90% Self-Cognitive learning 10% Affective learning.
Learning mode: Preference Active learning.
Learning Mode: Auditory
8 Multiple Intelligences : All Rounder A++
Analysis: He has a big 'Ram' overall quite intelligence.
Auditory: best study with loud music, no distraction.
ATD: need some enhancement on right brain.
Kinesthetic very low – another lazy guy.
Since he carries lots of whorl patterns, he had goal setting.
Mother points of view!
Understand his intelligences and characteristics help me less stressed.
Helping him to achieved his goal without him giving up. Whorl person tends to lost interest fast when goals achieved. So the need to advice him to stayed focus.
Before this test i always wondered what is in his mind…cause he is more remorse and quiet.
After the test we tend to communicate better because i know how to interact with him and understanding his characteristics helps a lot in our relationship.
He is now more talkative, more sharing and more loving and now he know how to show his caring side.
The Price i paid…..?
For this child of mine, the one thing i need to know is to go into his mind and learn what he think and do is very important to me. After the test,
I don't get mad at him now…. now we share almost everything, from his school, friends, tuitions and etc.
P.S. This is an open blog, he get to read it too. Thats our understanding level.
Secondary 2
SMK Sultan Abdul Aziz, Teluk Intan, Perak.
Secondary 2
DMIT : Took the test early November,2008
Quantitative Chart: Not so high because he has many arch patterns with loop and ridge count <4.
Brain Dominant: Right
CQ AQ..good IQ EQ affected by arch patterns.
Function Allocation: Sound; Linguistic; Oberservation/Reading; Recognition/Picture
Learning Sensitivity: ATD above 40
Very slow learner; Suitable step-by-step learning; Progress mastering methods and cues is steady and gradual. Fine movement skills needs enhancement.
10% self cognitive ; 30% affective; 60% reflective. (Infinite potential)
Frontal Lobe: Preference learning style – Reflective
Learning mode: Auditory
8 Multiple Intelligences:
Music/Rhythmic; Naturalist and Verbal/Linguistic. A++
The other C+
How can this test help him!
For an arch pattern person, the ridges in those fingers are uncountable, therefore he has infinite talents. He needs to work harder than my other two. But once
he acquire the methods he can be above the rest. So therefore his knowledge is excellent one part and the other part the opposite.
His auditory % is so high and kinesthetic is so low…if not given proper guidance he will be like a pig…sleep a lot. Inborn characteric is so accurate that now i know
why he is so punctual. Before that i thought is his discipline.
Since 'Sound/Music/Rhytmic' is highest among his multiple intelligence and his learning mode is auditory, therefore is better to put him in a quiet place out of sight
from everybody and on loud music for him. This kind of secnario best suit him. He is too distracted by ongoing thing around him.
How i take to his test? :
Well, before the test i thought he didn't put in enough effort is his studies as i feel how come some subject he can score so high and some goosssh so bad.
Then i start to advise him not to pick subjects to study, i say he need to excel in all subjects to put him through university.
When i sit with him in his revision, i find that he is ok too. But what happen to those subjects that has so low mark.
After the DMI test, i understand that he is a slow learner and need step-by-step methods. If not given him the proper ways and methods to study he will be stranded there untill the solution is found. Once he gets it, everything will be OK.
At this moment when i am typing this testimony, he just sat his March,2009 exam. Helping him to find the methods to study, finally he manage to improve his weaker subjects above 70%. One more subject to go and i think he will be among the top.
On his punctuality, sometime he really pull my nerves, he is so prompt on the dot. Have to compromise, his inborn character, what to do!
Mother to Elsie, Ezekiel and Rickson.
Genecode Franchisee and Internet Marketer/Network Marketer
Took the test in October,2008
Quantitative Chart: Not bad
Brain Dorminant: Right
AQ CQ AQ…good EQ… is X (no calculation..infinite bad/good…hmmnnn)
Function Allocation: Highest in Sound; Linguistic; Observation/Reading; Recognition/Picture
Learning Sensitivity: Average
70% self-cognitive 10% affective 20% Reflective learning
Learning Mode: Auditory and Visual…..lazy also kinesthetic low
8 Multiple Intelligences:
Music/Rhymthic; Naturalist A++ Linguistic/Verbal B+ ..haha the rest C+ and two with 'X' (Interpersonal/Intrapersonal)
My Test Analysis:
Characteristics fantastic accurate. Simple, Settled, Practical and Stubborn. The latest more like me.
Need to have security, transparent interaction, slow, infinity learning skill, skill and professional. Direct approach to task.
I am indeed good at thing i want and total blank if i don't like it.
I love nature very much..true to the test i am a Naturalist. Sound/rhythmic i only like music like Kitaro and Cusco but very
sensitive with sound. Indeed true here too.
Well, much have change due to environmental affect, but think back the test accuracy is very high indeed.
What i gained after the test?
I can still improve myself by taking bigger steps ahead.
Self satisfaction, at least i know who am i exactly; PERIOD!

Central City Brewers + Distillers Red Racer Low Rider Sugarplum Berliner Weisse at 3.9% ABV | 15 IBU (C$3.00 at Oak & Vine, 330 ml, packaged on 5-Nov-2017, acquired 7-Jan-2018, reviewed 10-Jan-2018)
Appearance: clear pink-tinged deep gold with a short, short-lived fizzy head, no lacing. (3/5) Aroma: vanilla, plum, lactose, spices. (7/10) Taste: moderate sweet, moderate tart, low bitter. (7/10) Palate: medium-light body, moderate carbonation, creamy tart finish. (3/5)
Not bad as such, and certainly nowhere near as sweet as the aroma promises it's going to be, but intensely weird. Though, I guess, how could a sugarplum beer be anything but? In addition, it's got big problems structurally, with the small head dropping off immediately to nothing, and no lacing. The carbonation could be higher, too. I can't help but think this particular flavour profile (especially the lactose) would be better suited to some other style than a Berliner Weisse. (13/20)

Crikey, we're now seeing a lot of bigger bikes landing here in the sub-$10k price category.
Newest to plug itself into that part of the market, and to hit Australian Honda showrooms later this month, is Honda's all-new NC700SA 'naked'.
Upright, with a low-set seat, and free of unnecessary faring and dress-ups, Honda's new naked will retail for $8,490 (plus on roads and delivery charges).
The lightweight and compact NC700SA promises healthy power and torque from low to medium rpm courtesy of an all-new, liquid-cooled, 670cc engine.
With a low centre of gravity, and comparatively light weight, Honda claims its new naked commuter is "pure and swift in its handling responses... (and) fun and easy to handle thanks to the combination of the steel diamond frame, cast aluminium 17-inch wheels, and geometry setup".
Adding to its safety credentials, the NC700SA also comes standard with C-ABS (Combined Antilock Braking System).
Honda also claims "excellent control at low and high speeds" thanks to the traditional low-seat riding and handlebars position.
Pillion passengers get twin grab-handles, there's also an internal storage space large enough to hold a full-face helmet.
In Honda showrooms from later in May, the NC700SA will be available in Australia in just two colour options, Magna Red and Pearl Sunbeam White.

This may be the year I get my cards done before Thanksgiving!! Always a first time for everything! This past weekend I was playing with creating a card. I used a few different sites.
First I designed at FOREVER Since most everything is on sale this month I started there! There will be no crazy black Friday sales, so you have time to make memories with your family! Create meaningful gifts all month and just make sure you order by the end of November using code NOV2016 to get all the discounts!
I used Forever projects to create a card. Right now the only option to create on-line is a 5X7 size. When you go onto the site, you do need to create a FREE account to get started. You create an album of the photos you want to use on your card and then you are ready to create! There are some options to change the layout and background of your cards. You get to design the front and back of the card! It was fun and easy to do. With the discount, this is a great deal!
But I enjoy having total flexibility, so I ended up creating most of my cards on Artisan ! The software that I love and would recommend to anyone! Very easy to use! I have been an ambassador for this software from the time it was released.
In the next few days I will share some specials (and my experience) from some other companies!
Celebrating Memories!!

Nordic skiing, or cross country, typically sees a longer season than its downhilling older brother. Because Nordic trails are typically less rugged and exposed than those on a mountainside, snow more easily accumulates, providing additional weeks (sometimes) of great snow conditions on either side of the alpine skiing season. Now that Ullr has started dropping his wintery goodness over southwest Montana, the Nordic trails may just be where it's at until the downhill slopes become rock free. If you're looking for a spot, no fear, the Butte area has some of the state's most stellar Nordic skiing areas.
Just on top of Homestake Pass, roughly 5 miles east on I-90, sits Homestake Lodge ski area. Day passes run $15 for the over 20 miles of total trails; some of those are lighted trails for nighttime skiing. Besides, the Lodge has possibly the most inviting post-adventure fireplace in the land. For directions, races, events, and more visit www.homestakelodge.com.
The crowning jewel of the area's Nordic scene is Mt. Haggin Nordic ski area, 11 miles south southwest of Anaconda on Mill Creek Road (highway 274). This free of charge (donations are accepted to offset grooming costs) and immaculately groomed trail system provides sweeping views of the Pintlers on the 10-mile Little California Loop trail and hosts the popular Legends of the Wulf annual ski race. After your ramble, cross the street and relax in everything the "soup shack" has to offer—soups, pies, coffee, and hot chocolate awesomeness. More info can be found at: www.milehighnordic.org.
An excellent, yet unsung trail system lies about 6 miles north of Walkerville. The Moulton trails offer a wide range of trails and intermittent grooming to make this area one of the most peaceful settings around. You're likely to meet as many energetic trail-dogs as skiers here, adding to the lure. I know Denali, my Husky, is itching to get up there.

The Oh Yeah! Almond Fudge Brownie bar looks and tastes like a real candy bar. This bar is loaded with almond chunks wrapped in chocolate surrounding a delicious brownie center. You should feel down on yourself for having one but you don't because it has no trans fat, is gluten free and (as I said before) its really high in protein. I've found it to be an excellent source of pre-run fuel so I can feel satisfied for my hour + long runs.
Here is the nutritional info for the full sized bars:
Calories: 350 (I know this sounds like alot, but if I replaces a meal I don't think 350 calories is very much)

UUP President Fred Kowal tells reporters why New York needs a long-term strategy to fund its public colleges during a faculty/student coalition news conference in Albany.
Kowal called for more state funding for SUNY and CUNY at the press event, part of Higher Education Action Day Feb. 26. SUNY and CUNY students and leaders from NYSUT, the Professional Staff Congress/CUNY, and NYPIRG also spoke at the news conference.
Kowal and other speakers supported the creation of an endowment to ensure the quality, accessibility and affordability of a SUNY and CUNY education for years to come.
"SUNY needs to rebuild its academic departments after years of funding cuts," Kowal said. "The endowment would allow SUNY to hire more full-time faculty and professional staff."
A number of UUPers joined more than 300 SUNY and CUNY students at the annual advocacy event. Students and unionists met with state lawmakers and urged them to support the coalition's agenda, which includes more money for SUNY hospitals and passage of the DREAM Act.
Earlier in the day, nearly two dozen UUP members met with lawmakers at the Capitol to advocate for more funding for SUNY and press for other higher ed concerns.
UUP Secretary Eileen Landy, right, VP for Professionals Philippe Abraham, second from right, and David Curry of Plattsburgh met with Sen. Kathy Marchione (R-Halfmoon). They asked her to push the state Education Department to delay implementation of the edTPA teacher certification requirement.
UUP leaders also took the union's message to the airwaves.
Kowal was interviewed by Albany television news station WTEN, Channel 10. Watch the report here.
VP for Academics Jamie Dangler gave an interview on "The Capitol Pressroom," which airs on WCNY, Syracuse's National Public Radio station. Hear her interview here.
Landy appeared on "Midday Magazine," which airs on WAMC, Albany's National Public Radio station. Hear her interview here.
Later, Dangler was interviewed on "Capital Tonight" a YNN political talk program that airs on a dozen Time Warner Cable systems in New York, including Albany, Buffalo, Binghamton, Syracuse, Rochester, Utica, Poughkeepsie, and Watertown. The interview is available only to Time Warner subscribers.

Nigeria gaffer, Gernot Rohr has hailed the Super Eagles team, but insists they must keep working hard.
Super Eagles beat highly rated Poland 1-0 away from home, to follow up their 4-2 win against Argentina.
Rohr has warned against riding that wave, and has charged his men to keep working hard for the World Cup.
"We've seen a lot of good things and some things we must work on before the World Cup in Russia," Rohr was quoted as saying on BBC Sport.
"Friendly matches provide a great opportunity to see everything about your team.
"It is not really the same as a World Cup game. Our preparation is still a work in progress to be ready.
"We know winning friendly matches could give us false hope but we want to keep working hard."

The History of the Conquest of Mexico and the
Virgin of Good Remedy
In the conquest of Mexico, Hernan Cortes suffered one major setback. When the Aztecas realized that their emperor, Moctezuma, was effectively being duped by the Spaniards and was under house arrest, they became furious.
A bust of Hernán Cortes in the Hospital de Jesús alongside Estela, my wife.
After his historic first encounter with Hernan Cortes on November 8th, 1519, Moctezuma invited the Spaniards to his palace in the Grand Tenochtitlan as house guests. During the following days, Cortes and his fellow Spaniards were appalled when they witnessed the human sacrifices in the Templo Mayor or Major Temple of Tenochtitlan. Cortes proposed to Moctezuma to show him and his court how Christians celebrated their liturgy, and Moctezuma acceded. Cortes set up an altar with a crucifix and had his Indian servants clean up one of the chambers of the Templo Mayor, scrubbing away the bloodstains and he asked one of his Captains, Juan Rodriguez de Villafuerte for his personal statue of Our Blessed Mother. Juan Rodriguez had received this statue from his brother, an Augustinian Monk in Spain, who recommended that he always take it with him and to ask the Blessed Virgin for her protection. The statue was that of Our Lady of Good Remedy or Nuestra Señora de los Remedios in Spanish. Spanish soldiers had invoked the protection of Nuestra Señora de los Remedios for centures, so that they would not be captured by the Muslims in their constant skirmishes with the Moors that occupied the Southern half of the Spanish Peninsula for centuries.
The issue of the human sacrifices soon became the sore spot of the dialogues between Cortes and Moctezuma. Moctezuma told Cortes that the Aztecs would not tolerate the distruction of their idols that Cortes was proposing, and exhausted after a long argument with Cortes, Moctezuma warned him: "Do what you want! If somethings goes wrong, don't complain, because all the Spaniards would die, as the Aztecs would deprive them of food and would attack and kill them." Cortes supposedly replied that nothing would happen to him, because God had sent him on this mission and God and His Virgin Mother would guide and protect him.
My source for this dialogue is "Mexico Pinturesco, Artistico y Monumental", by Manuel Rivera Cambas, 1880, Volume II. Rivera Cambas based his findings on the history of the Virgin of Good Remedy on the research done in the XVIII Century by the famous university professor Fray Luis de Cisneros, as well as the works of Father Florencia and Don Ignacio Carillo y Perez, who worked at the Mint. (When I say, "my source...", I don't necessarily mean that the source is trustworthy, but simply where I collect my information.) Were Moctezuma's words a prophecy or was he already privy to his brother, Cuauhtemoc's rejection of the new Spanish religion? Or was Moctezuma in agreement with his brother? Later on, gold became the central issue of the conquest. But was it at that point? Was gold the goal or merely a sine qua non condition. What type of alliance did Cortes have in mind between the Aztecs and Spain? Something similar to what Juana and Carlos V were trying to bring together between the nobles of Flanders, Germany and Spain?
You might realize that my interpretation of the historical facts differ from the official or popular versions. Some people accuse me when they listen to me of wanting to glorify Hernán Cortes. That may be true. I do not have a degree in history and I do not have the academic qualifications to question any official account of history. Having said this, the more I read, the more I study, the more I believe that I begin to grasp the complexity of the political and ideological issues at stake upon Cortes' arrival to Tenochtitlan and I believe that we should shrink away from simplistic concepts of heroes and villains. Moctezuma was not the bewildered mystic and cowardly traitor of the harmonious and joyously happy natives of Mexico he is made out to be in so many books, and Cortes is far more than a simple ambitious opportunist, only interested in finding gold mines.
After the celebration of Christian services at the Templo Mayor, the political situation became increasingly unstable. To worsen things even more, Cortes became distracted at this critical moment, as his former superior, Diego de Velazquez, infuriated by Cortes having taken troops from Cuba without his permission and jealous of all of Cortes success, came to declare battle on him in Veracruz. During this absence, some believe that Cortes captain Alvarado started to melt down idols without consulting Moctezuma. At some point, Captain Alvarado may have become physically aggressive with Moctezuma. By the time Cortes came back, the situation was about to explode. Cortes pleaded with Moctezuma to intercede with the mutinous crowds outside his royal palace and to calm their spirits. The response was unexpected. The furious mob turned not on the Spanish troops, but on their own emperor, Moctezuma, and they started throwing stones at him. One stone hit his arm, another his leg, and a last stone, gave Moctezuma a fatal blow. So what was happening here? Was this the beginning of Cortes conquest or was it the beginning of a struggle for power between conservative and liberal powers, specifically between Moctezuma and Cuauhtémoc, a struggle no doubt that Cortes would know how to capitalize?
The causeways, the long low bridges across the lake surrounding Tenochtitlan, were the only way for escape. Cortes knew that the causeway to Iztapalapa was completely disabled, as well as the one on the South towards Tlalpan. So the Spaniards grabbed what gold they could, and headed west! The causeways had not been designed by the Aztecs with horseback traffic in mind (as they did not know before Cortes that horses existed), and so the attacking Aztecs made the most of the ensuing bottleneck created by the fleeing Spanish troops, throwing stones at them and showering them with arrows. Many of Cortes' troops were captured and tortured, others fell off their horses and sank in the wáter and mud of the moats, drowning helplessly under the weight of the heavy armor and booty, while others were wounded but managed to escape . Cortes was constantly moving back and forth along his retreat, assisting when possible his heavily battered rearguard.
When Cortes managed to regroup his soldiers outside of Mexico City, he sat down under a tree, and wept. That tree still exists in the Popotla neighborhood of Mexico City, and is called: "El árbol de la Noche Triste" or "The Tree of the Sad Night". When Cortes wrote his account of the battle in his "Las Cartas de Relación" to his monarchs, the Queen Mother, Juana (also known as Juana la Loca or the Insane Queen Juana) and Charles V, he made no mention of the weeping, but he did make a point about how "... one hundrend and fifty Spaniards had lost their lives, as well as forty five mares and horses, and over two thousand indians that were in our service, as well as Mutezuma's son and his daughters that we had brought along as hostages."
The Cript of Hernán Cortes, under the window at the main altar of Jesús Nazareno Church
As you all know, Cortes would reconquer the grand Tenochtitlan as Mexico City was called by the Aztecs in less than a year. Cortes laid siege on Tenochtitlan and hunger and disease paid their toll. But coming back to that dreadful night for the Spanish, la noche triste, when they lost their battle, Juan Rodríguez de Villafuerte ran back to the Templo Mayor, picked up his statue of Our Lady, the Blessed Virgin, called Nuestra Señora de los Remedios or Our Lady of Good Remedy, as he did not wish to leave the Virgin unprotected against the probable profanation by the furious Aztecs, and besides he wanted to continue to count on her protection is the ensuing battle.

Inner courtyard of the Cloister at Our Lady of Remedies Basilica
Juan Rodríguez de Villafuerte buried his statue of the Virgin under a maguey plant during their stay there at Teocalhuican, on the hills of Los Remedios Park, with the idea of later coming back for it. Rodriguez later became one of the captains commanding the thirteen brigantines Cortes built for the lakes surrounding Tenochtitlan, setting siege on it. However, after the final victory over the Aztecs, Juan Rodriguez did not come back for his beloved Virgin of the Good Remedy. Maybe Rodriguez felt that he was invincible. He began soon afterwards his own series of conquests, usually without asking Hernan Cortes for permission. His campaign to subdue the natives on the Western coast, near what is now the state of Colima, met in defeat. He then turned south, discovering a beautiful bay, which he name after himself and his hometown, Villafuerte. In his careless way of conducting his campaigns, Rodriguez was eventually captured by the Indians and butchered alive. Yet the town he had discovered grew, and became an important seaport, yet as time went on, people no longer called it Villafuerte. You might have heard of it by its original native name...Acapulco.
A half century past by, and the Spanish had a firm control over not only Tenochtitlan, but the rest of the Nueva España. Back at the sleepy village of Teocalhuican, the chief made an important discovery when harvesting some maguey for their honey. He took a strange doll-like figure to the local Franciscan Friars so that they could tell him what it was he had discovered. The Chief's name was Cequautli, which means Eagle in the Nahuatl language. When he was baptized they named him Juan, or John, just like the patron saint of their village. The Franciscan Friars knew exactly what this figure was and where it had come from: it was Juan Rodrigue de Villafuerte's longlost Virgin of Good Remedy. At this point, it was decided that a Basilica should be built on the hilltop of Naucalpan, overlooking Mexico City.
Inside the church of Nuestra Señora de los Remedios
240 years later, Jose Maria Morelos organized an army to free Mexico from Spain, and used the image of the Virgin of Guadalupe on his standard, a sort of banner. Jose Morelos was such a brilliant commander, that Napoleon said of him: "...with three such men like Jose Morelos, I could conquer the world". The Spanish retaliated, adopting the Virgin of Good Remedy on their standard. The Virgin was removed from Her Basilica, and was sent to the Cathedral of Mexico for the length of the war. This war between the "Virgins" reached a point during the war, that "loyalists" spies were supposedly sent to watch people going to the Cathedral and praying, and at which altar they prayed, so as to ascertain their loyalty to the "Crown". After Mexico's Independence, the Virgin came back to this Basilica, in a huge procession from the Church of the True Veracruz, a church personally funded by Cortes, where we can still find a relic of the Cross of Christ that the King Charles V gave him as a reward.

Thousands of pilgrims visit the Virgin every day: most of them are possibly not aware of all the history surrounding her. For them, she is simply "their Virgin".

Shrine of Our Lady of Good Remedy,
a place for pilgrims and prayers.
The neighborhood of Naucalpan is part of the metropolitan area of Mexico City, and has every bit of the noise and traffic that you can expect in the most congested areas of the city. Yet the hill of Los Remedios, and especially the Shrine, provide a shelter from the dinge, with a comforting afternoon breeze during these spring months of high temperatures and even higher pollution levels.
A stunningly beautiful purple flowered Jacaranda tree at the entrance of the Atrium,
gives a welcome greeting to the weary pilgrim at the Shrine of Our Lady of Good Remedy.
The shrine is a complex that includes an atrium, a church, a bell tower, a baptismal fountain, a seminary, a huge outdoor garden with the stations of the Via Crucis and a cloister. The Shrine was elevated to the category of Minor Basilica by His Holiness Pope John Paul II, in 1999.
When you drive up the road, you can park your car outside the gate of the atrium. The atrium was possibly the most important architectural element of the first XVI century missions. The atrium had a cross, called an Atrium Cross. The stone crosses in these atriums many times contained a series of carved symbols, such as the nails used in the crucifixion, the ladder, the crown of thorns, and even the Crown of the King of Spain. The atrium was used for giving catechism and general religious instruction. The atrium was very handy for acts in which a large number of the faithful would take part, as well as for catechumenal work.
If you don't mind crowds, come to the Shrine of Our Lady of Good Remedy on a Sunday. Many locals come here for Sunday Mass. If you enjoy the peace and quiet a church can provide, come during the week.

Why you should start an SIP in Mutual fund this year?
updated on 3 May 2017
Most of the people ask us what are the benefits of starting an SIP (systematic investment plan) in Mutual fund.
SIP, Systematic Investment Plan, is a disciplined way of investing in Mutual fund schemes. SIP lets you invest at regular intervals (monthly, quarterly or yearly basis) and with small amounts to create wealth over a long run.
The important strategy to get best returns through SIP is to keep investing regardless of the market conditions and importantly investors should not stop SIP during market downturns because this is the time to get more units at lesser price and this will help to get best returns when market reverses its direction and start moving in upward direction.
The following are 5 benefits of starting an SIP in mutual funds
1. Best returns
No other investment match the returns of Mutual funds.
Starting an SIP in Mutual funds is considered one of the best methods for best returns in long term.
Diversified Mutual funds like SBI Blue chip fund and HDFC capital builder fund has provided above 20% returns for last 3 years.
Equity Mid and small cap fund like SBI small and mid cap fund and Reliance small cap fund have provided above 35% returns in last 3 years.
You can plan a SIP for specific long term goal. Equity investment is considered the best investment option to fund long term goals. They also beat inflation by a wide margin.
2. Tax benefit under section 80C
If you choose tax saving mutual funds then you investments are eligible for a tax deduction of upto to Rs 1.5 lakh from your gross total income under section 80C of the Income tax act. You are free to invest more than Rs 1.5 lakh but the extra amount would not fetch you a deduction. So this is one of the major benefits of investing in ELSS especially for salaried people. Best returns as well tax benefits.
Equity tax saving funds like Reliance Tax saver fund and DSP tax saving fund has provided above 20% returns in last 3 and 5 years. They have lock in period of 3 years.
Other tax savings like PPF (public provident fund) has lock in of 15 years however you are allowed to make a partial withdrawals from the seventh year, NSC (national saving certificate) has lock in of 5 years, NPS (national pension scheme) has also lock in which you cannot withdraw before your retirement unless for any emergency.
3. No Capital Gain tax after one year
The long term capital gains arising out of the sale of the mutual fund units are tax free. If you sell mutual funds after a year then they qualify for long term capital gains which are currently tax-free. If you have investments in tax free mutual funds then the lock in period is 3 years so automatically they would qualify for tax free long term capital gains.
4. Disciplined investing
A dedicated fund manager allocated by fund house takes care of your investment. You have an option of choosing mutual funds based on returns, tax benefits, high risk exposure funds or balanced funds etc.
5. Rupee cost Averaging
One of the major benefit is SIP is power of compounding and this is the reason one should not wait for market direction to start an SIP. If the market is higher than you may get less units but when the market is lower you get more units irrespective of whether markets are going up or down or in volatile.
6. Power of compounding
7.Reduced risk
Most of the people stay away from mutual funds due to risk or exposure to stock markets but you can see the past performance of the mutual fund and select them and also diversify your mutual funds SIP like you can choose balanced funds, mid cap and small cap funds, Equity diversified funds and so on.

With the economy on a slow mend, some voters on Tuesday said they allowed social issues to weigh more heavily in deciding who should be president for the next four years.
For Kika Martin, a 43-year-old entrepreneur and producer, positions taken by Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney on women's issues precluded him from getting her vote.
"I definitely don't see him representing a woman like myself," she said outside a polling station in Burbank.
Romney wants the Supreme Court to overturn its Roe vs. Wade decision, which guaranteed a woman's right to get an abortion through the first six months of her pregnancy. President Obama supports Roe vs. Wade.
Romney also has pledged to stop federal funds from going to Planned Parenthood.
Those efforts have complicated his campaign's efforts to curry favor among female voters. But in the job creation department, Romney's past experience in the private sector resonated with some voters.

Imagine you're sipping coffee at the church ice cream social. One of your city brethren proclaims to all within earshot how rich you're getting on high commodity prices and how food bills are draining his wallet.
An opportunity will have presented itself for you to help enlighten non-agricultural Americans on what all is involved in getting food from farm to fork.
Here's some cannon fodder.
USDA's Economic Research Service calculates that the farmer's share of the consumer's retail food dollar is less than 12 cents. Food services, food processors and retail trade all get bigger shares than farmers.
The farmer gets about 24 cents of each dollar consumers spend on food eaten at home. The farmer's cut of the food dollar spent away from home is about a nickel. That's because a lot more labor and service goes into food eaten away from home. One way to stretch food dollars is to eat more at home. However, doing so would not help replenish the church coffers with revenue from the ice cream social.
Inflation picking up
Undeniably, food prices are rising. USDA projects the annual change in the consumer price index for food will run some where between 3% and 4% this year. That's well above 2010's 0.8%. But it's a far cry from the recent peak of 5.5% in 2008.
Historically, food inflation and inflation in general have run higher than in recent years. By decades annual food inflation averaged:
* 8.1% in the 1970s
* 4.6% in the 1980s
* 2.8% in the 1990s
* 2.9% in the 2000s
In 2008 inflation in the energy price index and all commodity index topped inflation in the food commodity index. Not so in the immediate past. Food was the highest of those three indexes in 2011, prior to the oil price surge linked to political unrest in Libya.
Still, Americans are spending a modest 9.5% of our disposable personal income on food. About 5.5% of the 9.5% are spent on food eaten at home. Just short of 4% of the 9.5% are spent on food away from home. Back in 1960 food absorbed about 17.5% of the typical American's disposable personal income.
And when your compatriot at the ice cream social responds that growth in his income is not keeping up with food inflation, you stroke your chin pensively and say, "Yes, that is a serious issue for many Americans."
