The Contextual Life is a great blog! See for yourself here 🙂
There's a commonly held belief in the literary world that Americans do not like to read books in translation. So ingrained is this idea that many translators who I have heard speak publicly state that the translator's name is often left off the cover, lest the public realize that what they have in their hands is not originally written in English.* Other countries do not seem to have this problem, most likely because they are not of the privileged whose language is the most widely spoken.
If the above is to be taken as true, that Americans do in fact have a bias against books not written in their native tongue, why is this? Do we feel we won't be able to relate to the story? The characters? Do we feel removed from the author? Personally, I enjoy translated literature and, before understanding what it was, never gave it…

Sound Advice: Protecting a Teen's Hearing
You may worry about your parents hearing, but it's your children's ears that may be more at risk.
Since hearing loss is gradual, most people aren't aware of it until it's too late. What's too loud? Prolonged exposure to noise over 85 decibels can cause gradual hearing loss. As the noise increases, the time needed to do damage decreases. A rock concert – over 110 decibels- can damage your ears after 30 minutes.
Here are some advices that can help protect your hearing:
- Find a safe level on the CD or mp3 player's volume control and mark it for your teen.
- Buy ear plugs for concerts and dances. If they think that's not cool, tell them nearly all musicians, such as Metallica band members, wear them.
- Stuffing tissue in their ears doesn't protect against damage. It only muffles the sound.
- Tell them to stay away from the speakers, and to go outside every half hour to five their ear a break.
- If their ears are ringing after an event , that's a sign of damage.
- If you're concerned about your teen's listening habits, have their hearing checked.

Martyn Burke
A Personal Book Review
Have you ever read a book that describes the atrocities of a savage period in history, yet instead of being appalled by the vivid and gory descriptions, you find yourself snickering shamelessly? Have you ever read a book wherein the protagonist is scared witless about something you consider normal that it appeared really funny? Have you ever read a book wherein the situations, apparently leading to the protagonist's demise, actually led to his promotion, that everything appeared laughable?
If you haven't, then read this book by Martyn Burke. Although I must warn you that it may be hard to acquire since I just bought my copy for 20php at a Booksale branch. But the book is worth every penny you would ever spend on it – whether it be 20php because it's from a Booksale store or $5 because it's from Amazon.com.
The book tells the story of Dmitri, a Russian born and raised to hate USA , which the Russians call Enemy Number One. However, instead of hating the rival country, Dmitri grew up secretly loving and longing to be in the shores of Enemy Number One. He had read about the glamorous lives of the people there from smuggled copies of Life Magazine and had seen the contrast of the bleak and dreary Russian life to the exciting and liberating life of the Americas. Thus he studied hard and used his brilliance to become noticed by the oldKremlin men and as such be sent as one of the most promising spies to Enemy Number One. He has been given the task of devising schemes to destroy Enemy Number One – a task that although he didn't want he still accepted just so he could be allowed to live in the country of his dreams.
And the fun started there. His wife, learning that women in America are allowed to wear nice and beautiful dresses started craving for all the niceties that the democratic world can offer and that the communist world would consider traitorous. With the mounting problem of his wife's obsession adds the danger posed by his childhood friend – Lavrenti, whose parents were mercilessly implicated by Dmitri's father as traitors to the country thus having them shot and their kids – Lavrenti included – sent to slave labor camps. It just so happened that Lavrenti escaped the labor camps and came to America , working as a spy for the CIA and having a life-long passion of killing Dmitri in a slow and painful process. That process? Make him fear constantly for his life.
But life in Enemy Number One is not all gore and mishaps for Dmitri. He somehow managed to buy portions in the stock market and end up owning a huge corporation – Yagoda Enterprises. It all started with his ignorance in getting rid of his wife's winnings from a supermarket lottery – he invested the money in the stock market thinking that it would just end up in the drain. Unfortunately, or fortunately, his stockbroker was somewhat a young budding genius who was able to modestly balloon the invested money. When Dmitri realized what a stock market was, and that he was turning into the capitalist that they so hated, he was secretly delighted and proceeded to use the immense classified information that they receive as spies to predict which companies would boom and would be worth the investment. In time, Dmitri became a successful capitalist hiding under the pretense of a janitor in order to gain access to his magnificent building. It was not till the end of the book that Dmitri actually exposed himself to the hundreds of Yagoda employees.
The conclusion of the book, for me, is somewhat disappointing. I have fallen in love with Dmitri and his incessant fears of Stalin and the old Kremlin men, his schemes for saving Enemy Number One which often backfires and instead morphs into schemes for destroying Enemy Number One and his ability to find true love in the arms of a cleaning lady in his company. Just when one suspected that everything was going to turn out well for Dmitri – he has been introduced as the rightful owner of Yagoda, he has the love of his life in his arms and his wife has found contentment in some other rich man's paradise and as such will no longer be a pest in his back – Burke gives a most memorable twist leaving you clueless till the very end.
I am tempted to spoil the end here but I want the reader to also share in my element of surprise. The reason why it took me so long to write about the book was that my emotions got mixed with the book, I ceased becoming objective, and thus ended up bitterly disappointed. The book was brilliantly written – I couldn't ask for more. Every page is a turner; every chapter ending a witty comeback. Even at the very end, at the very last page, I kept dreaming and hoping that a new page would sprang up containing additional information about Dmitri and his exploits – something that would tell me that the end was not the end but just the mere beginning. Maybe there was a sequel. Maybe there wasn't.
But in all respects the book ended well. I guess any other ending would make everything sappy and I can see that the author's styles was not such. He's not into melodrama or conventional endings. His plot was brilliant; his descriptions engaging. The reality of Russia and the communist way of life was presented without fail and no words were minced to bring to light the horror experienced by the people in that country. Yet the otherwise dark and somber tone of the descriptions were lifted by the witty remarks and mishaps of the protagonist leaving the book light and easy to read.
I wish everyone would have the opportunity to read this book. It's a must read, if you ask me. Thumbs up to Burke, whoever he is. 🙂

Hey Trifecta fans.
This week we are covering five mistakes to avoid making in aquaponics. Aquaponics may seem daunting the first time you learn about it. The idea of having to maintain the health of both a fish and plant environment can seem like a lot to take on.
However, aquaponics is relatively simple to set up and maintain. In fact, so long as you be sure to avoid making these all to common mistakes you'll be sure to avoid the headache others have experienced when starting out and be off and running in no time. So lets dive right in!
What are the five mistakes to avoid making in aquaponics?
#1: Duckweed
The number one problem we see with new growers and with those interested in aquaponics is the use or the recommended use of duckweed. I once was one who fell into this trap in my first system. Yes fish, specifically tilapia, will eat duckweed with gusto, and yes the duckweed will repopulate faster than the fish can eat it. It's this info that makes it very attractive as a feed to fish to aquaponic growers. We've even seen claims that duckweed is around 40% protein and that it is perfect diet for those trying to grow a high protein fish.
Let's clear the facts on this note. Duckweed is 95% water. This can be confirmed by a simple google search. When dried, duckweed does contain somewhere between 35-40% protein. Most of those that are advocating duckweed are unaware that the 40% protein figure they claim is for dry duckweed. Your fish in aquaponics systems are not eating dry duckweed. Your fish are eating wet duckweed which as I stated at the beginning of this paragraph is 95% water which means that the protein content of duckweed is 35-40% of the remaining non water portion of wet duckweed.
So wet duckweed (what your fish eat) is only about 2% protein. THIS is why fish eat it so ferociously, it is because they are starving. This is especially true of growers who try to rely solely on duckweed and don't provide any supplemental nutrition to their fish. Couple this with the fact that duckweed grows faster than your starving fish can eat it. The growth is unstoppable and this is a problem. It gets out of the fish tank and into your pipes, grow beds, sump, pumps etc.
It is unruly and can cause a major headache. If you are interested in growing food for your fish look into black soldier fly larvae. They provide more protein and won't clog your pipes and pumps like duckweed will.
#2: Having too many fish in the tank
Another common problem among those starting out is that they want to grow as many fish as possible as quickly as possible. The problem with this is that they overcrowd their fish tanks resulting in stunted growth for the fish and high nitrate levels also affecting the health of the fish.
When starting out with a system for the first time keep your stocking densities low. I'd recommend one pound of fish for every five gallons of water in your fish tank. This is lower than the generally accepted densities but from our experience low densities do not hinder plant growth and over the lifetime of the system create a more stable system.
In addition it will save you money in feed which can add up over the lifetime of your system. Unless you are growing on a large commercial scale it is highly unlikely that the fish portion of your system will be profitable. As a small scale or hobby grower you should be looking to keep the fish side of the operation as low as possible to maximize your margins. Don't make the mistake of over-stocking, you can always add fish later, it's a waste to stock too densely lose fish to death or have to take them out.
#3: Using tap water in your system
This is one of the biggest mistakes of first time growers in their aquaponics systems. Most of the cities in the US add chlorine and fluoride to their water. Specifically chlorine can be deadly to fish. If the only access to fresh water you have is through your tap you need to "off-gas" the water before letting you fish come in contact with it. When setting up a brand new system you can do this by adding the water to the fish tank and letting it sit for 48-72 hours with the aeration unit going.
If you have a running system and need to add water to it, you need to off-gas it before you add it to the system. When public utilities are your only access to water it would behoove you to keep a steady supply off-gassed in case you need to add water to your system.
#4: Media
Another common mistake new-comers make in aquaponics comes in choosing their media. The issue with almost all media is that they will affect your ph in some way, at least initially. For instance, we use expanded shale in our systems. This expanded shale raises our ph, in our large systems it generally raises it .5-1ph. This initial raise can affect the health of plants and fish and for that reason we don't add either until a few days after the shale is added. Over the course of about 6 months the ph lowers slowly back to an acceptable range for both the plants and fish.
We are willing to use the shale because we can get it locally and it is readily available in large quantities. Other suitable options include hydroton and lava rock. One example of unacceptable media is limestone. Limestone affects the ph in an irreversible manner and will affect the health of both the fish and the plants. While it is attractive because of its availability and cheap price tag it is not suitable for aquaponics operations.
There is a quick test to see if the media you picked affects ph. First start by testing the ph of your water. Second, add water to a cupful of media and test the ph of that next morning. If it has changed significantly you can be certain that your media will affect the ph of your system.
#5: Using harmful additives to lower the pH
There is too much emphasis on ph in aquaponics in my opinion. These are systems of relationship and balance. Generally speaking a high ph will lower over time gradually. In mistake #4 to avoid I mentioned how it takes 6 months for our ph to drop due to the media we use.
Some people are impatient and resort to using chemical such as muriatic acid to lower their pH. Chemicals will lower your pH but they are largely untested in aquaponics. We know many of them will harm the health of your fish and plants. If you are considering chemicals, don't. It is that simple. The pH of your system will drop on its own over time due to nitrification, and that gradual drop is safe for your fish. In addition, fish and plants are more tolerant than we give them credit for. So you don't need to be that rash with the use of chemical alterations. The only option that I would recommend is the use of vinegar. You have to be careful here too as too much will affect the health of your fish.
Small sustained applications however will lower your pH over time. Just be careful use small amounts (like ⅓ cup for 500 gallons small) and monitor the situation. Vinegar is a slow fix, be patient and keep the additions small.
So there you have it. Five mistakes to avoid making in aquaponics because now you know better. Obviously there are more than five mistakes to avoid making in Aquaponics. That's why part of learning and becoming an aquaponic gardener is going be trial and error but you can be sure to avoid big blunders by skipping the five mistakes to avoid making in aquaponics listed here. So no more delaying it's time to go out and try it out yourself!

We all want to do all the things that we love; things that make us happy. But sometimes you realize that not everyone likes to see you doing what you love. That's what Em Ford found out when she decided to post a series of clips of her without make up.
The My Pale Skin star received more than 100,000 comments; among them some of the most annoying comments some boneheads could think of. While some people thought she looked cute without the make-up, some other haters poured all manner of vitriol on her.
As a result of the stigmatizing experience, Em even started doubting her own beauty. She became withdrawn and she hated the whole social media thing, until she had her life-changing moment of pure reflection. And then she came back!
In this video, you get to watch Em Ford as she narrates her online ordeal, and you have to agree that it's a really moving story. Em has come to learn the truth that we're all beautiful as modeled by our Creator, and that no matter what the reckless whackos say, we still remain our cute selves.

A significant number of Americans do not visit the dentist for regular checkups because they are too fearful or suffer from dental anxiety. Sedation dentistry offers an excellent way to provide a safe, anxiety-free, dental experience to those who are afraid of the dentist.
Sedation dentistry is often mistakenly thought to induce sleep. In fact, most sedatives allow the patient to stay awake during the procedure. Sleepiness is a side effect of some medications, but nitrous oxide, oral conscious sedation and IV sedation only work to calm anxiety throughout the dental visit.
Sedation dentistry is popular because most sedatives can be taken by mouth, meaning no injections, no anxiety and no pain. Some sedatives work so effectively that even the smells and details of the procedure cannot be recalled afterwards. Safety and compliance are two important aspects of treatments, so sedation dentistry offers both the individual and the dentist the best alternative.
Whatever the form of sedative, it is essential to be accompanied by a caregiver. Sometimes, sedatives are provided the night before the dental visit, which means that driving to or from the appointment is not advisable.
Here are some advantages associated with sedation dentistry:
What kinds of sedatives are available?
The most popular types of dental sedatives are nitrous oxide, oral conscious sedation, and IV sedation. Different levels of sedation (mild, moderate and deep) can be utilized depending on individual needs. Before administering any sedative, the dentist must analyze the full medical history of the patient, as well as taking note of any current medications.
Here is an overview of some of the most common types of dental sedatives:
Nitrous Oxide
Nitrous oxide, or "laughing gas," is used as a mild sedative. It is delivered through a nose hood, and is administered throughout the entire procedure. Nitrous oxide elevates the general mood and can evoke a general sense of well-being. Most importantly, it relieves anxiety and reduces pain during the procedure. In addition, some tingling and numbness may be felt. There are few side effects associated with nitrous oxide, and it has been safely used in dentistry for many years.
IV Sedation
Intravenous sedation is a moderate type of sedation. Patients who have previously experienced IV sedation often report feeling like they slept through the entire procedure. Generally, IV sedation is used for shorter treatments. It is administered via direct injection into the bloodstream, which means the effects are immediate. Sometimes patients feel groggy and sleepy when the IV sedatives are withdrawn. This is why it is important to bring a designated driver for the drive home.
Oral Conscious Sedation
Oral conscious sedation is an excellent choice for people who fear needles. Oral medication is provided prior to treatment in order to induce a moderate state of sedation. Though oral sedatives do not cause sleep, they usually dull the senses. This means that most patients cannot remember the pain, smells or noises associated with the procedure. Usually, a dose of medication is taken prior to the appointment, and then topped up during the procedure as required.
What types of drugs are used in oral conscious sedation?
Most of the drugs used in sedation dentistry are classified as benzodiazepines. Benzodiazepines reduce anxiety, muscle spasms, insomnia and seizures. Each medication has a different half-life, meaning that the effects last for varying amounts of time. The estimated length of the procedure determines which type of drug is going to be most effective.
Here are some of the most common drugs used in oral conscious sedation:
Valium® – This sedative has amnesic properties and a long half-life. It is usually used for time-consuming, complex procedures.
Halcion® – Usually used to treat insomnia, Halcion is an effective sedative with amnesic properties. A short half-life makes this sedative useful for shorter procedures.
Ativan® – This sedative is best known for reducing anxiety. It has amnesic properties and a medium half-life. Ativan is typically used for treatments shorter than two hours.
Versed® – This sedative has the shortest half-life and is therefore less commonly used. It alleviates anxiety in much the same way as nitrous oxide, and is used for visits that will take less than 30 minutes.
If you have questions or concerns about sedation dentistry, please ask your dentist.

I went to Dr. Lee and he was the best. He seemed to care a lot about details to make sure everything was done right, and he made me feel very comfortable. Highly recommend.
Sam, Winston – Salem, NC
One of MD's Best! If you are able to be flexible on your dentist, Dr. Lee is one of the best dentist's in Maryland. I had been a patient of his for years until I moved and changed insurance plans. I'm sad to say that I haven't found any dentist quite as good as Dr. Lee had been. He's great at making recommendations, getting ot know each patient individually, and just has an overall great demeanor and personality.
Tatiana, Gaithersburg, MD
I appreciated that they were still concerned about my health even after I left the office. They followed up with me after my appointment and everything. I was completely at ease during my appointment here. They went to great lengths to make sure I was completely relaxed and comfortable the entire time. They are so kind and caring, and they stay open way past their closing time to help anyone who needs them. They wouldn't deny anyone that needed help. I know I can always count on them. They had a huge selection of magazines in the waiting room. I was able to find some of my favorites and they kept me entertained while I was waiting for my appointment. I knew I was getting top-of-the-line treatment when they told me about what they learned at the latest conference they attended, and how they were incorporating that knowledge into the practice.

Apart from the creation of useful information and knowledge for researchers, practitioners and policy makers, this special issue is expected to test the relevance of existing theoretical frameworks (e.g., OLI – ownership, location, internationalization; global standardization versus localization perspective; resource based view of the firm; institutional theory) to examine the nature and emerging patterns of HRM systems in MNCs from BRICS nations. Further, due to a combination of factors such as the heterogeneity of the BRICS nations, the motives for the growth of their respective MNCs being different, and the ownership of MNCs from these nations being different from developed nations MNCs, this special issue is expected to provide researchers the opportunity to examine and confirm the usefulness of new theoretical perspectives such as the LLL (linkage, leveraging, learning) (Mathews, 2006), dynamic capabilities perspective (Cazurra and Genc, 2008), ambidexterity perspective (Luo and Rui, 2009), ambicultural mode (Chen and Miller, 2010), reverse diffusion, spring board strategy (Luo and Tung, 2007), liability of country of origin, liability of foreignness and late mover disadvantage (e.g., Contractor et al., 2007; Guillen and Garcia-Canal, 2009), and hybridization or move towards the best practice model; contributing to developments in the fields of international HRM, international management, comparative management, and organizational learning (e.g., Tung, 2008; Horwitz and Budhwar, 2014).
The aim of this special issue is to create an opportunity to fill the above highlighted gaps in the existing body of literature by assembling conceptual, theoretical and empirical developments related to the topic of 'management of human resources in the MNCs from BRICS nations'. HRM is generally acknowledged to be context-specific; and to better understand the nature of HRM systems relevant for EMNCs in different settings, it is important to analyze the business environment of the country of origin of these MNCs and the country of their operations (e.g., Khavul et al., 2010). Also, over the years, there has been an ongoing debates in the field of international HRM on topics such as the suitability of specific approaches to IHRM; global standardization versus localization of HRM policies; transfer of HR across subsidiaries and global sharing of best practice; global talent management; reverse knowledge transfers; the role of country specific HR centers in coordination and transfer of knowledge across the MNE operations; and convergence-divergence or cross-vergence of HRM across subsidiaries of MNCs operating in different parts of the world (see, e.g., Budhwar et al., 2009). However, the majority of these debates have been tested in MNCs from developed nations. In light of the rapid growth of MNCs from BRICS countries, a number of questions need addressing, such as what is the role of the HRM function in the internationalization of EMNCs? What IHRM approach(es) do EMNCs adopt? Are these similar to or different from those of developed countries MNCs? What kind of theoretical frameworks are suitable to investigate the emerging patterns of HRM systems in MNCs from BRICS nations? Do EMNCs emphasize global standardization, localization or glocalization of HRM systems? What are the key HRM challenges facing MNCs from emerging markets? This special issue is designed to address the aforementioned issues.
The following are illustrative questions/themes that are consistent with the spirit of this special issue. Authors are encouraged to contribute papers with wider perspectives, as long as the papers are in line with the broad theme of the proposed special issue.
- What is the nature of HRM systems of foreign firms originating from emerging markets, specifically Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa?
- What are the major factors that affect HRM policies and practices from EMNCs in their overseas operations?
- What theoretical frameworks are relevant to examine and highlight the context-specific nature of HRM in EMNCs?
- Are HRM systems of MNCs from BRICS countries convergent with systems of developed nations?
- How do MNCs from BRICS countries share their best HRM practices and transfer them between headquarters and subsidiaries?
- What is the experience of expatriates from MNCs of BRICS countries, and to BRICS countries?
- How can HR policies and practices affect organizational performance of EMNCs?
- What is the role of HR in the formation and implementation of global strategic alliances (e.g., mergers and acquisitions)?

FLEX Literacy® is self-managing and self-paced with adaptive opportunities for acceleration and remediation. More than 100 English Language Arts objectives are taught throughout 560 lessons as students work through a wide variety of activities—more than 5,000 in all. Guided by animated instructional hosts, these activities provide daily practice or support the student's individualized skill sequence.
FLEX Literacy utilizes the research-proven Gradual Release model of instruction, which gives students explicit modeling, guided practice (i.e., mediated scaffolding), independent practice, assessment, and maintenance opportunities to help them learn critical reading skills and complex strategies.
Engaging animations introduce, explain, and demonstrate skills.
Leveled text passages and supported activities provide guidance and instructional feedback.
Independent practice activities build toward mastery with embedded opportunities for remediation and acceleration.
Establishing and building strong foundations is key to life-long literacy. That's why FLEX Literacy provides daily practice on essential skills that grow students into confident and capable readers.
On a daily basis, each student receives practice in five activity types:
No two learners are the same, so why should they receive the same instruction at the same pace? Meeting the unique needs of each one of your students—especially English Learners and Beginning Readers—is critical to accelerating reading skills and achieving literacy success. With FLEX Literacy, each student progresses along a personalized learning sequence.
Each lesson provides scaffolded instruction to help students develop specific skills, including:
FLEX Literacy tailors instruction and practice to meet individual student needs based on continually evaluated student performance. It achieves differentiation through:
Students are presented with independent, monitored activities until they demonstrate mastery of a skill. The program then accelerates them past the remaining monitor activities, and directly to review and assessment opportunities.
If a student repeatedly performs below mastery, the program automatically generates a targeted, skill-specific remediation lesson. If online remediation isn't enough, FLEXWorks alerts the teacher that the student needs one-on-one support and provides mini-lessons on the targeted skill.
Student participation is driven by a game-like interface and navigation. The experience keeps interest levels high by providing ongoing encouragement and engagement as students progress through instructional activities. Students are motivated with reward points and kept on task by limiting the amount of time allotted to customize their avatar and decorate their personal rooms.

Every holiday, the kidlets and I make frosted, cutout sugar cookies. We all look forward to cookie night! Even Grant stops in to snag our dough. I think he does it just to make me mad. He didn't get the memo yet: No dough= NO COOKIES!
After almost a year of holiday cookie baking, the kids have the process down to a fine art. We all sit around the table, and get to work! They both help me cut the cookies out. Once they are cool, Lexie helps me frost them, and Dylan decorates with sprinkles.
Finally, we get to enjoy them! I think they stick with me the entire time, because they know that cookie eating is the best part!
We had a good time making Halloween cookies tonight. Some parts were a bit stressful (dough stealing, ahem), but we forged ahead, and the end result was perfect. Does it really matter if there are hundreds of tiny sprinkles on my floor?
I think not.

Communications in a High Performing Organization
"Have I reached the person to whom I am speaking?" -- Lily Tomlin as "Ernestine"
The Challenge
You want to do a good job. But it's pretty hard to know exactly what that means when you don't know much about where the organization is headed. Your boss spends lots of time in meetings, but either nothing is decided or nothing is shared. How are you supposed to make good decisions in a vacuum?
Effective communication is a topic at almost every management training, sales training or career development seminar. Yet ineffective communication is often a major contributor to missing key objectives. Many executives think they communicate effectively and people understand what's expected. Employee surveys usually indicate otherwise.

Here is my daily behavior chart!
Isn't it cute? I have to say, this picture is from the beginning of the school year, so this thing is looking a little more "gnarly" now. Oh well, it still gets the job done! :) It fits my garden theme, and it's a great visual as to how our day's going in the patch! I would prefer for every day to stay perfectly green, but we have more..."colorful" days every once in a while!
I made the chart out of large pieces of colorful paper I cut out and then laminated for reinforcement. Next year, I intend to make a similar chart! However, I think I will make the petals even tougher with license-type laminate. I don't want them bending over and looking wonky! I'm sure you could make a chart like this to fit a variety of themes!

An excellent work of historical fiction. Ak-bar is the child of India, nurtured by its God and Goddesses. A devotee of truth, wisdom and knowledge, he embraced and explored the beauty of all religions in an effort to weave the tapestry of one united whole. This saga unfolds such a tapestry in colours warm and exquisite. The theme itself was a journey toward unity in time and timelessness. On the path to truth, Akbar invited padres and theologians from all over the world to discover similarities in religions, not disparities. On the path to love, he became the disciple of his Hindu and Muslim brides, paying homage to the sanctity in beauty, both physical and spi-ritual.

Shapiro, Joel and Skeie, David R. (2013) Information Management in Banking Crises. Centre for Economic Policy Research Discussion Paper.
A regulator resolving a bank faces two audiences: depositors, who may run if they believe the regulator will not provide capital, and banks, which may take excess risk if they believe the regulator will provide capital. When the regulator's cost of injecting capital is private information, it manages expectations by using costly signals: (i) A regulator with a low cost of injecting capital may forbear on bad banks to signal toughness and reduce risk taking, and (ii) A regulator with a high cost of injecting capital may bail out bad banks to increase confidence and prevent runs. Regulators perform more informative stress tests when the market is pessimistic.

Wick was a human mercenary and a veteran member of Tagon's Toughs. He served with the mercenary company for several years, accompanying them on several of their most dangerous missions. Following the death of "Pronto" Prontucci, Wick was one of the potential candidates to become the company's new demolitions specialist, but he declined the position.
During the mission to Oisri, Wick and Private Rodriguez were assigned to guard a quarantined gavclone named Balt "Bini" Binion. Shortly after their shift began, Bini revealed that he had in fact been suborned by a hostile UNS intelligence. Using illegal soldier boosts, Bini proceeded to free himself from quarantine and kill both Wick and Rodriguez.
Kaff Tagon later found both bodies, and expressed sadness that he had "let them down". Their armor was subsequently salvaged by Tailor to build prototype powered armor for Sergeant Schlock.

Well, we love our phones too; and with 98.8% coverage of the population, we've got you covered so you never have to worry about being disconnected.
With all the jargon and hidden fees out there, trying to figure out which mobile plan is right for you can be a daunting task, which is why we've made our mobile plans as simple and transparent with no hidden nasty surprises awaiting you.
Here are 5 reasons why Woolworths Mobile is right for you:
You can easily transfer your current number from your current service provider to Woolworths by simply selecting this option as part of the activation process. There is no need to contact your current service provider as the porting process will take place automatically.
It's important to note that your current number must be active for porting to be successful and any requested information (e.g. date of birth, account number) must exactly match your current service provider's records.
Smartphones are only as smart as the network they're on. That's why Woolworths Mobile uses parts of Telstra's 4G and 3G network, covering over 23 million Australians^. That's a whopping 1.59 million square kilometres of coverage!
Nobody's got time to be spending hours and hours trying to figure out what's included in their phone plan or how much they'll be charged at the end of the month.
From pre-paid to post-paid, we've designed our plans to be flexible and easy to understand.
Choose from either 10GB data for $45 or 4GB data for $30, so you can stream music, watch movies and talk and text to your heart's content. Also, if you don't use all of your data in the month, you have the added benefit of rolling over up to 15GB of your unused data, as long as you recharge on the same or higher plan before expiry.

Plants Galore
Try some lush potted flowers as centerpieces. They can be purchased, grown, rented or borrowed. Growing them holds a special satisfaction that the couple grew their own wedding centerpieces. Just be sure to grow extras in case a few don't quite turn out right. Gardenias and spring bulbs are simple choices for this option. Daisies are another bright and cheerful option. They are available in a variety of colors and grow well in pots. Just be sure to choose something that doesn't have too strong of a smell. This way guests with allergies won't run for the hills and the smell won't overpower the food while guests are eating. Bonsai trees also make a great centerpiece and little mini charms or pictures can be hung from them. Bamboo plants in containers of water also make for pretty centerpieces. Seasonal plants, like poinsettias around Christmas can also be used.
Mini Mailbox
A miniature mailbox can make a beautiful centerpiece. Nearly anything can be painted on them and they can be adorned with flowers and vines, maybe even a fake bird from a craft store. Note cards and pens can be provided at the tables for guests to "send" the couple their best wishes. A full sized mailbox makes a great alternative to a guest book. The note cards can later be collected to be bound together or placed in a scrap book or album.
Beta Fish Centerpiece Idea
At how many weddings do they use live centerpieces? This one depends on having a home for all of the beta fish after the wedding. They do not require much care but can live for quite a long time. The alternative is to see if the pet store will let you donate them back or if there is a school in the area that would like pets for the classrooms. Beta fish can be simply placed in a clear bowl of the appropriate water with the appropriate plants to make a centerpiece that leaves gusts talking. Be sure to consult with the pet shop where the beta fish are purchased to learn about the proper materials to use and how to care for the fish.
Birdhouse Chic
Birdhouses decorated with flowers or Spanish moss are a great centerpiece idea as well. The birdhouses can be painted in any color and are available pre-painted as well. Simple kits are available at craft stores to assemble birdhouses of all sizes and types. Another way to use birdhouses in wedding planning is to have a birdhouse as a centerpiece to the table where the birdseed for tossing is displayed at the wedding ceremony location. Allow guests to take home the birdhouse centerpieces for display or to use as a feeder in their yards.
Bowl of Favors for Every Occasion
A simple bowl can make a great centerpiece. Fill a bowl with garland and ornaments in December. Pine cones, leaves and nuts make a great fall filler. Flowers are great for spring and floating candles work all year round. Sand and seashells in a bowl will compliment a beach or nautical themed wedding. Candies, chocolates and other treats also make a filler that guests will appreciate. Put a note of thanks on a pic or skewer stick to dress up the bowl of treats.
Pillar Candle for Inexpensive Elegance
A simple pillar candle on a mirrored platform is elegant and simple. A garland of flowers at the base adds romance and small shells or stones glued to the base can help the candles fit the décor. Pillar candles can be used as a stand-alone centerpiece on a stand or platform or they can be paired with candles of all shapes and sizes to create a romantic glow in the room.
Martini Glass Centerpieces
Martini glasses make for chic and noteworthy centerpieces. Use floating candles in the martini glasses to add a little sparkle. Fill martini glasses with fake snow and top with little candies for a holiday flair. Fill the martini glasses with sand and top them with a paper parasol for a summer accent. Oversized martini glasses are available if the couple wishes to use only one at each table.
Fruit, Vegetables and Citrus Centerpiece Ideas
Place fruit skewers displayed in a vase or bowl as a centerpiece. "Fruit florists" also can make flowers from fruit into an arrangement for guests to nibble. Bowls of fruit also make great centerpieces. Use apples for fall and citrus fruits for spring and summer. Pumpkins and gourds displayed whole or gutted and used as a vase are another great idea. Pineapples and other thick shelled fruit and vegetables can also be used as vases.
Look around at everyday items and picture them as part of a centerpiece. Find something that really represents the bride and groom or simply reflects their style. Who knows, the idea could be the next wedding centerpiece trend!

What's in a name?
North Dakota State Roundup
Published September 1, 2001 | September 2001 issue
Four years ago, leaders in the town formerly know as Granville cut a deal with a company to change the town's name to a brand of schnappsMcGillicuddy. Some saw it as a sellout to corporate America, while others saw a unique economic opportunity not to be passed up.
By winning a contest in 1998, the north-central town received not only the name change to McGillicuddy City U.S.A. but also $25,000 each of the next four years from the distributor of Dr. McGillicuddy's schnapps. The money has gone toward the construction of a community center, and the new name has boosted the town's morale. Although no one credits the name change directly, the 2000 census counted 36 additional residents over the past decade, bringing the total population to 275.
North Dakota will follow in McGillicuddy's footsteps if a Greater North Dakota Association recommendation to change the state's name to merely "Dakota" is adopted. While a name change for the state may not be as easy to order, the state is receiving a lot of attention, nonetheless. In fact, a South Dakota newspaper noted a reader suggestion that, instead, North Dakota should just call itself South Canada.

New Work
Here are three recent paintings that are currently on the walls at Abbozzo Gallery in Oakville, Ontario as part of the Ontario Society of Artists, "OSA Summer Exhibitions".
I continue to work on the series, "Evening on the Lake of Dreams". The myth that accompanies this work is on my website. I went to the opening last night on a fabulous warm summer evening. There are five Oakville Galleries involved in this exhibition, so it made for a wonderful gallery walk to see all of the work in each gallery.
