In order to avert a recession, the Fed reduced its key interest rate from 2.25% to 2.0 on April 30, 2008. The price of oil rose to a new record of over $135 a barrel (May, 2008), more than twice what it had been a year previously. The Dow was still hovering above 12,000 (a considerable decline from the dizzying heights before the subprime collapse), but the worst was yet to come. As the 2008 presidential election reached its climax, we were about to witness the nadir, a Dow in the 7,000's by year's end. This was not a time for hope and change, but one of fear and trembling.
Borrowing a phrase made popular by President Bill Clinton when he defeated George Herbert Walker Bush for the presidency in 1992 ("It's the economy, stupid!"), I called this article, "It's the Market Process, Stupid". I was hoping that the candidates running for president would heed the warnings, but as it turned out neither of them did. In near exasperation, I wanted to call attention to the horrible state of the market structure. But nobody was listening. It's time to make drastic changes, before it is too late. That's what this article is about.>
Nobody will deny that THE current issue is the economy. But, politicians, take heed, it's not the economy, stupid; it's the market process. Even though a raft of more economic troubles seems to be coming, there is not the slightest sign of solving the present economic malaise that afflicts us. I'm referring of course to the financial crisis caused by sub-prime mortgage failures, and housing market troubles in general.
Most economic experts have identified massive monetary liquidity, formed in the market over the last several years, as the main cause of the economic malaise. They think that due to high monetary liquidity formed by aggressive expansionary fiscal and monetary policies, a bubble must have been built into the equity market across the board, such as in the housing market and the stock market. This bubble burst is thus linked to the collapse of the housing market. It is what brought about the failure of the sub-prime mortgage system and the turmoil of the stock market. Also, this high monetary liquidity could cause more serious economic troubles with the threat of inflation. Some economic experts even blame Alan Greenspan, former Federal Reserve board chairman, as a cause of the current economic troubles for his policies that caused this high monetary liquidity in the first place. While we're at it, let's blame the Bush administration for its support of high monetary liquidity by increasing government spending and adopting tax reduction policies.
In spite of these events, economic experts still cannot suggest clear solutions for these economic troubles. That is because most solutions they suggest are only expedients to escape from the most urgent risks and put off the real healing for the future simply by maintaining the status quo. It could be said that most of their plans contain more potential to amplify future problems, rather than get us out of this mess.
Even in this vortex of doom, many new opinions about causes have been appearing. They say that it's low consumer spending, the negative employment condition, the credit crunch, the low consumer saving rate, the high trade deficit or even the high federal budget deficit. However, their recommended solutions still remain ambiguous and abstract.
Then what is wrong? Why don't we find the clear solutions for these problems? The reason is that the supposed causes, which numerous economic experts have suggested until now, are not the real ones. That is, the causes they have suggested are not genuine causes, but simply the secondary results made by some other unidentified cause. Therefore, the solutions for these secondary results cannot solve the real causes, but only temporarily postpone the most serious risks.
Then, what is the real cause of the current economic breakdown?
It's the market process.
I realize of course that what I'm recommending smacks of economic heresy. Nobody in their right mind has suggested changing the market process. Why now? Because the market process needs fine tuning for the changed market circumstances. It's past the point where it will fix itself. The existing market systems, which support the present market process, are outmoded for the Modern Information Age. I do not believe in paying homage to sacred cows, like the so-called "Invisible Hand" everyone learned about in introductory economics. If you think I'm suggesting we re-think the market process, then that is precisely what I'm suggesting. Our economic future depends on it.
The Relationship between Communication Changes and Market Process
In the Agricultural Age, when communication was person to person, and transportation was still in a very primitive stage, transactions among people were mainly through barter or through the early village or town markets, which were formed locally.
In the Industrial Age, information sharing and exchanges among people were more widespread. Communications between remote areas were now made possible by the development of the telegraph and telephone, and were accompanied by revolutionary developments in transportation. With these developments, the economy took on a three-tiered functional market process. To manage and develop the economy soundly under this new market process, some of our basic economic principles demanded re-evaluation. It's time to do that again.
This three-tiered functional market process continued to develop into the two-tiered functional market process, such as that exhibited by the big chain stores in the early twentieth century. These forerunners of the shopping center were made possible by the development of radio and television, by the continuous development of transportation, and by the revolutionary development of inventory control through a bar-code system.
These market processes reflected the new capability of communication and transportation. Accordingly, they could provide relative efficiency and effectiveness. In realizing this, they also created new businesses and jobs to the degree we take for granted today.
Because these market processes were developed with locally restricted, single-source based communication, their development and operation were installed relatively easily. That is, because the effects from them were relatively simple, the business estimate for them was relatively easily and accurately gauged.
Fast forward now to the Modern Information Age. Communication has been transferred from existing single-source based communication to multiple-source based communication. Moreover, with the development of networking technology, these multiple-source based communications could be integrated. Because this multiple- source based networked communication is very economical all over the world, and also possible in all directions, its impact was far greater than first imagined. The result is a new paradigm, which could create far greater effects on efficiency and effectiveness than the existing one could ever make. That is, the single-source based communication, from which only simple arithmetical changes could be expected, had developed into the multiple-source based networked communication, from which geometrically progressive changes could be expected. Moreover, by breaking down the existing local restrictions through the development of the World Wide Web, it could be said that communication was no longer restricted by time and space.
Despite the advantages, these communication changes may have in a sense occurred too rapidly and abruptly. Insufficient thought has been given to how to apply them to other areas, especially to the market process. As a result, we have lost a propitious moment to apply them to the market process, and numerous abnormal phenomena have accumulated in the market and society as a result. What has resulted is the current economic malaise we find ourselves in.
The Role of the Existing Functional Market Process in the Modern Information Age
The existing functional market process is built on a single-source based communication foundation. As such, only simple arithmetical changes of effects on efficiency and effectiveness can be expected from it. Moreover, the creation of new businesses and jobs in an arithmetical way is all that can be expected. We need to fix that. We start by looking at what happened when communication developed from single-source based communication to multiple-source based networked communication, while at the same time the functional market process remained unchanged.
The paramount factors are these – and notice how they are interrelated and interconnected:
- The existing functional market process could not have provided satisfactory consuming effects structurally to the market. This is because only arithmetical changes of effects on efficiency and effectiveness could be expected from the existing functional market process. On the contrary, the market, which has been directly influenced by the new communication paradigm, has required more multiplying or geometrically progressive changes. Thus there must have occurred some gaps structurally between the consuming effects provided by the existing functional market process and the market requirement.
- Theses structural gaps must eventually have appeared as the missing phenomena of consumer spending in the market. That is, because consumer needs and wants increase faster than consuming effects, consumer spending will eventually be curtailed.
- Because the existing functional market process could create new businesses and jobs only in an arithmetical way it could not create enough income to satisfy existing market requirements. It's as if consumer spending was held back due to the limitations of the market process.
- This curtailment of consumer spending must have caused an abrupt increase of consumer price sensitivity, and this must also have caused the abrupt increase of excessive price competition in the market. This situation must have developed concomitantly with the rapid expansion of efficiency-increase-oriented (cost-oriented) globalization activities such as off-shoring and outsourcing toward foreign countries with lower labor costs, and this must also eventually have been directly linked to the decrease of jobs or the reduction of income for lower- and middle-income people in the domestic market. Accordingly, the inequality of earnings between affluent and poor was aggravated.
- Moreover, because the existing functional market process has a fixed and closed marketing channel, it could not have handled all products or services. Keep in mind that there has been an vast increase in numbers and kinds of new products and services in the Modern Information Age and this should have required more marketing and distribution costs for new products or services. What this means is that the existing functional market process has actually impeded the creation of new businesses and jobs in the domestic market.
- If this situation continues, a vicious cycle will persist between the supply side and the demand side in the domestic market.
Finally, the government has adopted very powerful and ambitious economic policies in an effort to prevent this vicious cycle from occurring and attempted to revitalize the economy. However, it could be also said that the effect of many economic policies, adopted without having made changes in the existing functional market process, will generate little improvement.
The Role of Economic Policies with Existing Functional Market Process in the Modern Information Age
The prevailing free market paradigm has been predicated on the so-called 'Invisible Hand', because general factors, such as interest rate, money supply, tax, employment, and so on, could have chain effects that were easily traceable, and easy and accurate to estimate. Under these circumstances, it was possible to estimate how these general factors influence demand and supply. Therefore, the problems of demand and supply in the economy could also be solved by the fine tuning of these general factors.
The rapid development of the Modern Information Age over the last 20 years has quite simply changed the preliminary conditions for the efficient and effective estimate of a market economy, as follows:
- A perfectly competitive condition has been changed into an excessive and severe competitive condition, especially in a price-oriented competitive market.
- Due to globalization, the meaning of the efficiently restricted market range was curtailed. In other words, the market range has already spread to the whole world, and thus the restriction for communication and transaction is rapidly becoming meaningless.
- Due to the development of multiple-source based networked communication, the estimate on chain effect has already been reduced to near nonsense, and the role of autonomous systematic discipline for the market or economy has been lost.
- Therefore, it could be said that the role of dominant economic theory has been already shrunk to the extent of being meaningless in its predictive powers for the new globalized world.
Yet, even though conditions have changed, we have still stood by the economic policies of the past, despite the adverse impacts that can now be plainly seen.
While expansionary economic policies have served us well for directly maintaining or increasing the level of consumer spending, they have done nothing to stimulate economic revitalization. Due to the continuation of these policies, numerous abnormal phenomena and problems have accumulated in the market.
The recent high federal budget deficit, high monetary liquidity, high trade deficit, high inflation potential, and low consumer saving rate are the results from these accumulated abnormal phenomena and problems.
It seems that economic experts still do not recognize the reason and necessity about why the existing market process should be changed, and as they try to find solutions, they compulsively stick to their existing assumptions and principles. Their theories are rather becoming more complicated, ambiguous, and abstract.
Conclusion and Recommendation
The first step to get the economy back on track will be the construction of a stable relationship between the changed communication scene and the market process. That is, efficiency and effectiveness cannot be derived from them until they develop a mutually proper communication to go with a stable market process. If they do not, then the kinds of abnormalities and what economists call externalities (i.e., unintended consequences) cited above will persist.
In looking back at the last 20 years, I believe that communication has developed rapidly through the digital revolution and internet revolution -- from the existing paradigm of single-source based communication to the new paradigm of multiple-source based networked communication. But at the same time, the market process has remained virtually unchanged. For this reason, the variegated abnormal phenomena and problems we are experiencing now can hardly be surprising as we look back at economic events just over the past year.
By implementing the existing expansionary economic policies where the mutually "improper-unstable" relationship between the changed communication and the existing market process has remained in place, it seems that government decision makers have served to institutionalize abnormal phenomena and problems in the market rather than to revitalize the economy.
Therefore, it can be said that the real cause for the current economic malaise will be found in the market process, which is not equipped to handle the needs of the Modern Information Age. For that reason, it can also be said that the development of a new market process with more suitable market systems to the Modern Information Age must be the starting point to solve these numerous economic problems. If a new stable market process is not developed soon, economic problems will persist; and accordingly, national competitiveness, national prosperity, and the welfare and safety of the nation will fall into a graver danger.
Because the development of this new market process will eventually require changing the paradigm of the existing market process, resistance to such changes must also be expected. In addition, the development of new assumptions and principles for the changed new economic circumstances will be needed, and a re-thinking of old economic theories into new ones.
On a positive note, the conditions and circumstances for the development of a new market process are already in place. If decision makers are willing to make the hard choices, it will be relatively easy to implement.
Therefore, we recommend that all government, academic, and corporate heads should work together to find a solution to our economic revitalization through the development of a new market process better suited to the Modern Information Age. This means the development of more effective economic policies for the Modern Information Age. Especially, this means the active assistance and support from the government. New political leadership in January 2009 will be a good time to start, and none to soon. To all who are running for president, both Democrat and Republican: It's the market process . . .

Autumn Ridge Street Trees
As many of you are aware. CG banned any type of pear tree for use as a street tree. Therefore, the ARHOA Street Tree Committee chose three trees and assigned them to the various streets in the subdivision for replacement of the Aristocrat and Bradford Pear.
The following three trees and their cultivars are the only trees approved for replacement of the pear trees on Autumn Ridge's streets. The three trees and their cultivars are:
Tree: Red Maple (Acer rubrum)
• Cultivars: October Glory, Autumn Blaze, Red Sunset and
Autumn Flame
Tree: Thornless Honeylocust (Gleditsia triacanthos var. inermis)
• Cultivar: Shademaster (male only)
Tree: Black Gum aka Black Tupelo (Nyssa sylvatica)
• Cultivars: Wild Fire and Red Rage
The committee's recommendations for using the aforementioned three trees, and the distribution by street, were presented to the Association Board and approved as follows:
Red Maple: Autumn Ridge Drive, Deer Crossing Way, Windy Meadow Way, Misty Morning Circle, Sedona Vista, Rochester Court and Ramblewood Way
Thornless Honeylocust: Winter Haven Way, Indian Summer Trail and Crimson Creek Way
Black Gum aka Black Tupelo: Briarpatch Way, Michaels Cove, Doe Meadow Court, Pheasant Run and Willow Spring
NOTE: For those owning corner lots, abide by the street on which the tree is located.
The use of one tree, uniformly and exclusively, on a single street will protect the look to which we are accustomed. In addition, using three different trees overall will present a pleasing diversity of colors and hues throughout Autumn Ridge, and will protect the entire neighborhood should one species develop sickness or infestation.
Trees are required in Lexington subdivisions, and the replacement of those that die, are damaged or removed is required. Please keep in mind that trees increase property values.
The ARHOA is not suggesting a schedule of when the pear trees are to be replaced, but only mandating which trees must be used when replacing the pear trees. Please take into account that Autumn Ridge is a deed-restricted community, and that the ARHOA is acting in the benefit of the neighborhood.
A very helpful brochure, Lexington Street Tree Guidelines – Understanding City Street Tree Requirements, Permitting, Maintenance and Removal Procedures, is available from the LFUCG. The property owner is responsible for replacement. The brochure also states that property owners may be eligible to receive financial assistance for street tree removal, stump grinding, and tree planting. This brochure can be found on Lexington's website, www.lexingtonky.gov/forestry, or by calling the Division of Streets, Roads and Forestry at 859-258-3451.
Please note that it states in the Lexington Street Tree Guidelines – Understanding City Street Tree Requirements, Permitting, Maintenance and Removal Procedures brochure that a permit must be obtained before removing and/or planting street trees. However, the ARHOA obtained an open permit for Autumn Ridge residents to replace the pear trees per the street selection mandated above and you will not be required to get a permit as it has already been done for you. Also, please keep in mind, replacement trees must be at least 1 ¾ inch in caliper.
Thank you for your cooperation in this effort to keep Autumn Ridge beautiful.

Two in a row for Gerrans at TDU
#GoGerro! MMBCC Life Member Simon Gerrans is hopeful of securing his fourth Tour Down Under title after taking his second consecutive win today on stage 4 the 2016 race. See what can happen when you stay upright on your bike!
Great to see Simon collecting his leader's jersey in a cycling cap (also known as a casquette) and not a baseball cap too! (The rules are not to be trifled with.)
Unconfirmed reports from Adelaide suggest a tall man wearing a green 'Team Gerrans' t-shirt has been seen roaming the streets proclaiming to live in Mansfield and claiming some connection to the MMBCC. The public is warned the man is likely delirious and should not be approached.
Cycling Tips has a good write up on stage 4 here. The GreenEDGE Backstage Pass video of stage 3 shows Andy Gerrans this time too.
Local road racing kicks off for 2016
Enthusiasm, new faces and great racing were on the agenda for the first road race after the summer break for the Mansfield Mt Buller Cycling Club.
Alex Green convinced several out-of-town mates to race for the night and Andrew Clark, Dan Purcell, Andrew Letts and Cassie Pentony fronted up for their first taste of racing.
Prophetically, Kat McKean jumped off the front of her group leaving Lou Hopwood and Ian Conrick to battle the heat and hills by themselves. David Bock dug in hard early to catch the fragmenting group of Janine Appleton, Dan Purcell, John Eisner and Rod Manning. Appleton and Purcell worked well to create a gap while Andrew Letts rode off Alex Green and Will MacDonald to quietly mop up the field.
Josh Hopwood, John Ryan, Todd Baxter and Tom MacMunn had a tough assignment at the pointy end and weren't able to catch the main bunch who were methodically working their way through the field. Notably Jarrod Appleton and Dave Moore hung in well with Bruce Halket riding smoothly in a post-surgery return to form. Ross Hopkins did well to cross the gap and record the night's fastest time.
Kat continued to ride well thanks to her solid post-injury training and had good win with Andrew Letts coming a well deserved second. A bunch sprint saw Darren 'quiet achiever' Bakker place third with Halket, Jarrod Appleton, Hopkins, Brega, Moore, Green and Purcell making up the top ten. Ian Conrick did well to place 11th and Cassie Pentony 16th leaving Clark and Eisner to review their training regime.
Thanks to our volunteers for the night and the Delatite Hotel for their support.
Thanks too to John Eisner for the write-up this week.
VDHS Round 3 at Buller this weekend.
The rain's stopped, the course has been bunted (for fans of The Cycling Podcast... yes, we have Humungous Bunting!) and the club t-shirts have arrived. We're all ready to go!
Thanks in advance to all our club volunteers and good luck to all the racers!
Good luck Kian
Finally, all the best to Kian Lerch-MacKinnnon who's racing the 3rd and 4th round of the National MTB Series this weekend in Western Australia.

Well, I'm no professional or anything, but I feel like I've developed an unhealthy obsession lately. I'm sure you've all noticed at some point that I change the theme of this blog a lot. It's like one day it's blue with three columns and then the next day, it's grey with one column. Then there's the whole commenting system idea… constant changes, because none of them seem to be good enough for me. Either they're too complicated, or they aren't compatible with my theme… so, there goes the theme change again. It's a vicious cycle, really.
It feels like I'm always thinking of how to make it better… always. I can probably attribute it to the fact that I don't have a job? Or, maybe a newfound hobby of mine? I mean, editing Tumblr themes can be quite riveting, right?! Either way, I quickly realized that this might be becoming a problem. An obsession type thing, perhaps? Let's see what Google has to say about it…
- obsession
– "the state of being obsessed with someone or something"
– "an idea or thought that continually preoccupies or intrudes on a
person's mind"
Sound familiar? Well, I'll have to look into a cure at some point…

Okay, the succulent-packed pumpkin in the previous post cost just a fraction of the amount named. It was all a bit tongue-in-cheek, because little projects like this always add up to more than expected. The actual cost was about $60, with two-thirds ($40) going towards succulents. Five or so years ago, the selection of succulents was limited, but they could be bought for a pittance. Now, however, they are "in," and the cost is two or more times what it was just a short time ago.
Also, the pumpkin is a hard-skinned French heirloom, 'Rouge vif D'Etampes', and can last months indoors. Perhaps even more importantly, the fruit is not cut; green sheet moss is glued to the top of the pumpkin and then, to hold the succulents, a plastic pot liner (trimmed to 1-inch tall) is glued to the moss, as shown below. For more tips, you can read the column in the Greenville News here.
In the U.S., seeds for the Cinderella pumpkin can be found online at Baker Creek Heirloom Seeds.
Moving on to something new, look at this chrysanthemum and butterfly I spied yesterday at the JC Raulston Arboretum in Raleigh, North Carolina. The mum is 'Miss Gloria's Thanksgiving Day' and the butterfly is an American Lady (Vanessa virginiensis). It's very similar to the better known Painted Lady, but can be distinguished by the small white spot on its foreweing in the orange field just below the black apical patch, as well as two large eyespots on its hindwing, best seen from the underside when the wings are closed.

Now I really do love eating out, I like trying new things and especially eyeing up the decor in restaurants.. this is after the thought of starting my own little tea room ( crazy idea due to lack of graduate jobs). Anyways.. being lactose intolerant is a massive pain! I will see something I like but then notice everything is coated in butter, sprinkled with cheese or made with milk. It is extremely frustrating and awkward to keep asking the waiter to check what the ingredients are with the chef. I know it has to be done but sometimes it still doesn't run smoothly which is what I experienced today.
This could go both ways however... Either I have figured out I am no longer lactose intolerant (yay!) or I will feel the consequences in a few hours time (fingers cross to the first).
I went along with the boyfriend to a lovely brunch/dinner restaurant which serve flatbreads with various toppings, luckily the dough no longer contained butter! So I ordered a brunch flatbread.. little did I know that half way through and cutting into the egg that there was in fact cheese on the dish. Maybe I can no longer notice the flavour of cheese or just had trust in the chef that no milk would be found in my meal but until my boyfriend tried some I then realized I had ate a whole lunch that had cheese in it!
|Mine ( can kinda see the cheesyness now :( )
And the thing that annoyed me the most... I told them I had an allergy straight away, the menu said no cheese unlike the other options but after reading the menu online, the one I ordered said cheese?! What is up with that. Now I am hoping that all is well but my stomach is feeling dodgy.
Anyways what I am trying to say is that... allergies are extremely annoying for us(and to those going out with us) and we really don't mean to be a pain but I just wish all restaurants could take the time to ensure that they have actually taken into account the dietary requirement. Some places I have been to have been amazing, for example Pizza Express who actually give alternatives and extra toppings, or TGI's who offer more chips (woho!).
Fingers crossed I am fine :( Other than that it would have been a wonderful meal. Rant over, enjoy your Saturday evening!

I'm a professional football player and the WROM Compressions were so comfortable, and they allowed me to play at normal high tempo.
WROM tights can compete with the likes of Nike and Under Armour for compression pants while bringing its own swag! These tights have the compression pants benefits with material that allows for comfortable flexibility needed for athletic performance and durability to be your go to workout tights. Will def come back for more when additional colors drop!
Tights rank up there on the level of the big name brand of Nike and Under Armour with their own unique swag. Functionality and comfortability are a must for me for tights that a wear often and the WROM tights are top notch in those areas. Tight enough to have the compression benefit but the material lends great to flexibility needed for athletic movements and durability. Would put these up against any other tights I have own from the likes of Nike and Under Armour
Love the way the material feels, looks great with shorts , details on the logo and reflections looks sick. I would recommend this product.

The 57th Annual O'Reilly Houston AutoRama came to town on November 24-27, 2016. This event was held at the George R. Brown Convention Center in Houston, Texas. To the car folks in and around this area it has become a family tradition. For years now we have heard about this exciting car show event, but have never made the journey down there. We found out what we were missing. It is a place where the spectator can gain knowledge from the vendor about their vehicles on a one-on-one conversation, and this is priceless.
The event begins on one end with the Dan Kruse Classics auction that was held on Friday and Saturday, allowing people to bid on cars and trucks, while on the end was a swap meet and toy show where you could purchase vintage parts, memorabilia, and a collection of toys, all surrounded by over 500 quality cars, trucks and motorcycles. Adding to the excitement was Summit Racing Equipment, which had what is known as the Gene Winfield's Chop Shop, featuring none other than Gene, himself, an icon who is known for building custom cars.
This show was incredible and certainly on our list for next year.

GCRC = Gold Coast RC Raceway.
Time to test a few more RWD setups.But i get distracted by awesome battles.
This time I lowered the GRK Slide rack on the DRB-REW, but I am still waiting on some front stub axles so I can install some GX knuckles to get the maximum lock that I want. It meant that setting was driving was limiting the ability to set a constant line and not having that "spin preventing" safety margin in ultimate maximum lock past 65 degrees.
But I had some good laps with the "White Team"
These two were awesome in door to door bashing.
Hunting down targets
And sliding through nicely.
Fun to watch
CS machines Cranking it out, I joined in later with my RWD.
Anyone for Pink? Unfortunately not an S15 aka "ichi-go"
Or perhaps a little German Auto
Enter the Drift Package "Drift Master Weight Shift"
Setup is awesome these days. Huge angle, Huge Style.
Admittedly, still a few degrees shy of the long constant angle CS3.5+ machines, going to a matching max angle means dropping outright speed. But the angle is definitely surpassing a CS 2.0ish machine for style and angle.
Getting machines like this to work on super polished concrete is a massive challenge. But we are all finding that our previous limits and getting higher.
Known working combinations are appearing for some fun times.

Beets are a root vegetable full of beneficial vitamins, minerals and phytochemicals, not only in the root, but also in the greens. I love making borscht or beet soup and my favourite when I have guests over is to serve roasted beets with a mixture of root vegetables like onions, carrots and potatoes and of course my special spices. I also eat beets boiled, pickled (I could eat the whole jar), and you can even have raw beets in the form of salad, no cooking required and no staining your hands red. When I go to the mall I go to Jugo Juice and get the Max Veg blend with carrots and beets (sans ginger – my personal choice). Beets help improve the energy levels; as well, it is an excellent source of iron. Beets help safeguard against cancerous growth while strengthening the immune system.
Beets contain:
Folate – Cancer Preventative
Potassium – Decreases the risk of stroke and preventative for osteoporosis.
Magnesium – Vital mineral for healthy bones
Beta-Carotene – Antioxidant and precursor to vitamin A
Once you are aware about all the health benefits of beets, then will find ways to incorporate this beautiful red vegetable into your daily diet. There are numerous ways to eat beets as you can see; however, if you're just not into them but want the benefits that this amazing vegetable has to offer, and are seeking better health, then you may take it as a pill form called Limitless. Inflammation is the silent killer and can negatively impact your health for years before you even become aware of obvious symptoms like chronic joint discomfort, reduced flexibility, asthma, skin problems, moodiness, decreased energy, and more. A company called FutureCeuticals® that has been around for 150 years and processes 50 million pounds of fruit each year is one of the leading research and development in nutraceuticals in North America. FutureCeuticals® has partnered up with Evolv and has unlocked the key nutrient from this powerful beet vegetable. Limitless is full of rare and extremely potent class of antioxidants like betalains which scientifically reduces bad cholesterol, helps reduce the inflammation that makes blood sticky leading to clots, protect cells from toxins and protects the liver.
Drink beets, eat beets. Below is one of my favourite recipes for BEET SOUP:
- 8 cups water or beef broth
- 2 tbsp of coconut oil
- 1 large onion, peeled, quartered
- 4 large beets, peeled, diced (boil them clean and whole in the water or broth first to make the beets easier to peel, wear gloves to not stain your hands when peeling, KEEP broth aside, boil for at least 30 minutes)
- 4 organic carrots, peeled, diced
- 1 large russet potato or yam, peeled, cubed
- 2 cups thinly sliced cabbage
- 3/4 cup chopped fresh dill
- 2 tbsp red wine vinegar
- 1 cup sour cream (option)
- Salt and pepper to taste
1 In a large pan add coconut oil and saute the onions, carrots, and potato or yam until tender.
2 Add sauted vegetables and raw cabbage in with the beet broth that was set aside and bring to boil. Reduce heat, cover, and simmer for about 20 minutes.
3 Add 1/2 cup dill; and season to taste with salt and pepper. Stir in vinegar.
Ladle soup into bowls. Top with sour cream and use the remaining 1/4 cup dill for garnishing.
ENJOY and cheers to your health!

Threshold determination and hazard evaluation of the disaster about drought/flood sudden alternation in Huaihe River basin, China
- 169 Downloads
Based on the related impact factors of precipitation anomaly referred in previous research, eight atmospheric circulation indicators in pre-winter and spring picked out by correlation analysis as the independent variables and the hazard levels of drought/flood sudden alternation index (DFSAI) as the dependent variables were used to construct the nonlinear and nonparametric classification and regression tree (CART) for the threshold determination and hazard evaluation on bimonthly and monthly scales in Huaihe River basin. Results show that the spring indicators about Arctic oscillation index (AOI_S), Asia polar vortex area index (APVAI_S), and Asian meridional circulation index (AMCI_S) were extracted as the three main impact factors, which were proved to be suitable for the hazard levels assessment of the drought/flood sudden alternation (DFSA) disaster based on bimonthly scale. On monthly scale, AOI_S, northern hemisphere polar vortex intensity index in pre-winter (NHPVII_PW), and AMCI_S are the three primary variables in hazard level prediction of DFSA in May and June; NHPVII_PW, AMCI_PW, and AMCI_S are for that in June and July; NHPVII_PW and EASMI are for that in July and August. The type of the disaster (flood to drought/drought to flood/no DFSA) and hazard level under different conditions also can be obtained from each model. The hazard level and type were expressed by the integer from − 3 to 3, which change from the high level of disaster that flood to drought (level − 3) to the high level of the reverse type (level 3). The middle number 0 represents no DFSA. The high levels of the two sides decrease progressively to the neutralization (level 0). When AOI_S less than − 0.355, the disaster of the quick turn from drought to flood is more apt to happen (level 1) on bimonthly scale; when AOI_S less than − 1.32, the same type disaster may occur (level 2) in May and June on monthly scale. When NHPVII_PW less than 341.5, the disaster of the quick turn from flood to drought will occur (level − 1) in June and July on monthly scale. By this analogy, different hazard types and levels all can be judged from the optimal models. The corresponding data from 2011 to 2015 were selected to verify the final models through the comparison between the predicted and actual levels, and the models of M1 (bimonthly scale), M2, and M3 (monthly scale) were proved to be acceptable by the prediction accuracy rate (compared the predicted with the observed levels, 73%, 11/15). The proposed CART method in this research is a new try for the short-term climate prediction.

Passive Vs. Active 3D glasses
I try to put your 3D active glasses for the first time, I was quite impressed. It is more expensive and require batteries with one, another is connected to a 3D TV with infared beam to restrict the viewing distance. So when I get more information on LG's passive 3D technology, I immediately went to the store to try it again. I like it so much that it is polarized glasses like I had with the 3D movies theaters. Passive 3D glasses are much lighter than active technology makes it feel more comfortable. LG AG-F210 3D glasses for the two in a box with pouch to store them in, and cleaning cloth. Compare prices on the passive 3D glasses that have been very active 3D glasses.
Pros: lightweight, not requires batteries, cheaper. Posted byJackat6:48 AMLabels:3D Glasses,Active,Passive0comments: Post a CommentOlder PostHomeSubscribe to:Post Comments (Atom)

Carménere has recently been rediscovered in Chilé and now you can find it on just about any retail shelf. But what is it and how did it gain it's comeback?
Carménere originated in the Medoc region of Bordeaux and is thought to be one of the original six red grapes. However, it's not rarely found in Bordeaux but rather in Chilé. When the vines were transferred to Chilé, they were planted with the Merlot grapes and was thought to be Merlot for decades. Since it was really another varietal mixed in with the Merlot, Chilean Merlot was unlike any other. It wasn't until 1994, when a researcher found that some of those grapes were actually Carménere. Since then it's be labeled as such and gaining popularity.
I opened a bottle of Casa Rivas Gran Reserva Carménere recently and truly enjoyed it. Very easy to drink on its own but easily paired with many foods. Big, bright fruit with a medium finish, this wine was a perfect sipper to enjoy in front of the tv. This wine comes from the Chilean region of Maipo, closest region to Santiago.
Curious? Pick up a bottle of Carménere and taste for yourself!

As of December of last year, students of the University of Puerto Rico (UPR) have protested against an increase in tuition and faced brutality from the local government. Initially, the students demanded to know the reasons for what they saw as an arbitrary tuition hike, but they are still waiting for those reasons, according to several eyewitness accounts. All they received was a declaration capping the increase at $800. Consequently, the highest tribunal of the island issued an order that prohibits demonstrations on the UPR campus. Law enforcement officials got a green light to enter the campus in order to disband the protests, but their effort degenerated into indiscriminate violence against students exercising their rights to free speech and assembly, as well as against thousands of civilians who joined them in support. It has been months since the situation reached a boiling point caused by the police's violent crackdown. The fundamental freedoms of American citizens, specifically Puerto Ricans of course, are being ignored.
This is old history, however. In the 1970s, after the police entered the UPR's campus, they killed a female student when suppressing protests. After great public outrage, the government enacted a Non-Confrontation Policy that barred police entry into the campus, designed to prevent future violence from the cops against the civilian population they are supposed to serve and protect.
The student protests of December 2010 are framed by an uproarious context. In the past two years, Puerto Ricans have faced increased unemployment, budget cuts from the government, and protests from public sector workers as well as teacher's unions demanding better wages and working conditions. UPR protests are not uncommon, since the threat of privatization looms on the horizon, on top of rising tuition.
However, in midst of the recent protests at UPR, the current Governor of Puerto Rico, Luis Fortuño, abandoned the Non-Confrontation Policy. The UPR's administration shut down the campus in December of 2010 and held its own students captive inside: protesters and non-protesters alike, without food or water, according to one UPR alumn source.
The use of force against one's own citizens is a classic human rights violation under international law. See the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and the Geneva Convention. For a current example, Libya serves our purposes. What is equally surprising to me is the absence of media coverage about these events, happening inside this country! I suspect that if similar happenings were noticed in the Continental USA, the authorities would have been put in their place long ago. Imagine police violence of this type in the Midwest (Wisconsin sound familiar, anyone? ), where teachers' unions have protested for wage cuts in the public school system. I wonder of anyone can visualize that happening in 21st Century mainland USA. It appears that Puerto Ricans are treated as second class citizens, akin to our African-American brethren during the 1960s. They similarly faced oppression from governmental authorities (good old boys in the police, judiciary) until the nation took notice of their struggle, and the nation evolved. Through that suffering, this country emerged into a better one.
On March 2, 2011, Congressman Luis Gutierrez declared his indignation at the rampant human rights abuses taking place in Puerto Rico. Mr. Gutierrez described police brutality, racial profiling, silencing protestors, violating the First Amendment's freedom of expression, and even efforts by the judiciary to silence the local bar association (which was striving to educate its members about the impropriety of covering for the government's abuses and how to denounce corrupt practitioners) to name a few. The ACLU of Puerto Rico has also taken notice: "Human Rights Crisis in Puerto Rico: First Amendment Under Siege."
In essence, I am surprised that this information has not been given proper coverage and importance. I believe the media and the government to be cooperating in dominating (or selecting?) content on the airwaves, the internet, and news networks. What is broadcasted as "news" and is on everyone's lips is not the ongoing atrocity in Puerto Rico, but distractions like Charlie Sheen's most recent ramble, or the merits of allowing homosexuals to fight for their country (as if sexual inclination mattered when the enemy is shooting to kill).
At present, classes are ongoing at UPR, but the student protests continue, along with the police oppression. (See more photos here.) I await a peaceful outcome to this mess, and hope that the Federal Government puts Puerto Rico's caudillos (strongmen) in line. Peace to all. Fight the good fight.

Key Market Drivers, Trends & Opportunities for Software Tech Companies in the Healthcare Sector - Part Two of Three28 May 2018
with Roger Wallhouse, Founder, Health Systems Solutions Ltd and John Symon, SVP, International Markets, Boss Equity
In Part 2 of this 3-part podcast, John Symon talks with healthcare sector veteran, Roger Wallhouse. Roger shares some in-depth insights on the many challenges faced by the healthcare sector in its bid to become fully digital.
Roger also shines a light on the complexities within healthcare record keeping, including patient confidentiality, which is deemed sacrosanct. Operational inefficiencies also mean that despite being a huge organisation, autonomy at a local level means that the NHS doesn't take advantage of buying at scale. These factors and others make adoption a far more painstaking process than in other industries.

Following are the major Bitcoin news of the day
LinkedIn Founder Makes an Interesting Comment on Bitcoin
LinkedIn founder Reid Hoffman recently made some new observations regarding the future of Bitcoin. While speaking at a conference in San Francisco, he indirectly referred Bitcoin only to be a first cryptocurrency in the series of many. The intellectual translation of his comment was pointed towards the possibilities of Bitcoin being upgraded with better cryptocurrencies in future.
BitMarket.pl Goes into Financial Trouble
The Polish cryptocurrency exchange BitMarket.pl recently went into a financial tussle with its bank over increased debts. The exchange's poor financial condition eventually resulted into the suspension of their bank accounts. BitMarket.pl's founder Michael Pleban however denied his exchange struggling financially but blamed their account suspension on a theft that occurred on their platform recently.
"For that reason, the bank decided to close all our accounts and refuse our business… I am currently on a quest to find a bitcoin-friendly bank in Poland," he added.
Google Now Integrates Coinbase
Google Now, a popular Android-based tool, added a Coinbase card that will notify Bitcoin enthusiasts about the price fluctuations. Alongside Coinbase, Google Now also added Airbnb and Pandora cards as well.

Hellooooo, GWRRA Indiana and Region D !
We are Ray and Melinda Faber from Chapter K, Lafayette, In., as we reside in Crawfordsville, IN. We are the New District Directors for Indiana as of the Fall Officers meeting on October 10th. We are humbled by our selection and look forward to serving the members of Indiana and Region D.
We joined GWRRA at Wing Ding in Fort Wayne in 2005. We then joined A2, our birth chapter, in Lebanon, IN. As our work schedules changed we moved to Chapter K, in Lafayette, IN., to better accommodate days off. They have honored us by making us their 2015 Chapter Couple Of The Year.
We had twin sons, one of which has twin grandsons and a grand-daughter. Our youngest son has a Helix and attends many events with us, he also enjoys attending chapter meetings and events.
We have been riding together since we met in 1980 at Huntington College in Huntington In. We were married in 1981 and commuted for a few years to Indy on 1973 850 Moto Guzzi LAPD with a full fairing and bags. Great bike many miles enjoyed. With birth of twin boys in 1984, motorcycling was pushed to back burner till they were in high school. The boys had a dirt bike and I purchased a 600 Ninja to ride to soccer games as I was an official. In 2005, we purchased a 1986 1200 Goldwing and then in 2009, we purchased our present 2004 1800 Goldwing. We really enjoy all the time we can spend on the Wing and with our GWRRA family.
Over the next 2 years, we plan to implement, some ideas we have thought of during travels and visits with our GWRRA friends. My wife says I love to talk, but I am also listening. Feel free to give me your concerns and also your ideas as we can use all the help you can give.
The strength of our district is the members and their participation with the chapters and at the district levels. So, we hope, you will continue to help us grow and make Indiana and Region D, better for the present and future members.
Ray & Melinda Faber
Indiana District Directors

I love guacamole, it's a great snack and easy to make a bigger batch for a party. Out here in California the avocados are SO much cheaper, so I'm always buying them for everything.
So here's a quick and easy recipe for great Guacamole!
Avocados (However many you want)
Tomato **Optional
Start by taking the pit out of the avocado, I just hit it pretty hard with my knife, then twist and it comes out. Then slice the avocado up and down, and side to side. This makes it easy to scoop out, and helps when it comes time to mash it. Scoop out the avocado into a bowl and mash it with a fork. If you are making a big batch for a party using more than just a couple avocados, it is easier to just throw it into a food processor instead of mashing it by hand.
Next dice up some onion and tomato, if you don't like either of those you don't have to add them. I usually add onion to mine, and if it's for a party then I add tomato. Shake some salt in and mix it up!
See, I told you it was easy! The next post I'll show you some delicious shredded chicken tacos to use your guacamole with!
