Some people see the world as dangerous, and some see it as safe. Some see it as just or unjust. Nevertheless, we all live in the same world. Elements of our personality color our views, and human perception is little more than an inkblot test. One purpose of the Enneagram of Personality is to describe the various lenses that distort our perception of the world. If you believe that the world is ultimately competitive, that you must be independent, and that the objective of life is survival, then you might be:

I. Introduction to the Enneagram of Personality
The Enneagram of Personality is a personality classification system comprised of nine types. Each one of these nine types represents a distinct set of motivations, fears, desires and virtues. This article (and the other articles in this series) are designed to present each of the nine types in an understandable and comprehensive way. Many of you are no doubt familiar with the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator, as it is the most popular personality instrument discussed on PersonalityCafe. The Enneagram is a fantastic compliment to the MBTI test because the Enneagram deals with core motivations, while MBTI deals with information processing. When taken together, MBTI and Enneagram can provide an accurate description of an individual's personality.
These articles are intended to describe each Enneagram type from the ground up, starting with the most fundamental motivations of that type and moving up to how those motivations are expressed in the real world.
II. Quick Facts about Type EightHoly Idea: Innocence/Truth
These facts will be described throughout the article.
These facts will be described throughout the article.
Vice: Lust
Virtue: Magnamity
Enneagram Triad: Body (Associated Emotion: Anger)
Hornevian Triad: Aggressive
Harmonic Triad: Reactive
Basic Drive: Survival
Basic Fear: Being harmed or controlled
Basic Desire: To be independent and in control
Freudian Association: Id (Subconscious gratification drive)
III. Type Eight Description
Animalistic "laws of nature" are coded into the human psyche, particularly in the subconscious Id, which is the seat of many primal impulses. These laws of nature hold that the strong survive and the weak perish, and to survive, one must always be at the top of the food chain.
The foundation of a Type Eight personality is a strong connection to these "laws of nature." From a Freudian perspective, this is because the Type Eight spends a large part of their mental energy on satisfying certain survival impulses of the Id. From the perspective of cognitive behavioral psychology, a Type Eight believes (for whatever reason, perhaps early development) that the primal survival need is their most treasured asset.
In Enneagram theory, each type has a Holy Idea from which all other traits flow. Type Eight's "Holy Ideas" are Truth and Innocence. The Holy Idea determines which type a person ultimately grows into; if they are particularly in-tune with the notion of innocence, over time they develop a delusion that no one is innocent, thus justifying cutthroat behavior. It's every man for themselves in the Eight's world.
This foundation ensures that the Eight is within the body triad. The body triad is focused on all the minutiae regarding where "I" end and "You" begin. Conflict is a necessary part of that. For the Eight, it's themselves against the world. There is a clear border between the Eight and the rest of the world, and that border must be protected. 8w9 and 8w7 protect that border in different ways, but that's discussed later in this article.
The Type Eight basic drive is to survive and the basic fear is to be harmed or controlled. After all, to be controlled is to essentially be an animal caught in a trap, waiting for someone to come along and finish the job. For that reason, Eights will resist almost any attempt to control them. (Weak attempts may fall off the radar as something not worth dealing with.)
But as a society, we do not live in the world of the Id. Society doesn't allow us to set out bear traps for other people (well, most societies) and so the behaviors of the Eight are channeled into other activities. This is why Eights tend to gravitate toward positions of power, particularly in business or social settings. Even if the position has no apparent survival value, the subconscious drive to control (lest the Eight be controlled themselves) drives them to become the authority in a situation.
Harkening back to the animalistic nature of the Id, the Type Eight relies on intuitive action (gut reactions, not MBTI intuitiveness) to operate. There's no time to think it out when you're in the middle of a crossfire on the battlefield, so an Eight will naturally go with their first reaction. This is another reason why Type Eight is in the Body Triad, not the Head Triad. For example, while Type Five will plan things out while Type Eight will just do it.
The vice of Type Eight is lust. But not necessarily sexual lust; this can encompass the desire for any number of things, such as food or money. You can think of a "vice", at least in the context of the Enneagram, as representing an illusory means of pursuing the basic drive. For Type Eights, the basic drive is survival. Acting in a lusty way gives the illusion of survival; consuming mass amounts of food or possessing great wealth gives, at least temporarily, the appearance that they are winning the battle for survival. This is a major motivation for Type Eight; they want to consume and expand their control. This gives Type Eights an ego that is generally unmatched in the Enneagram. They like to see themselves as powerful, influential and self-sufficient.
Morality wise, a Type Eight would say they have integrity instead of a strong moral code. They would likely view strong moral codes as weak if they are too out of touch with reality. Morality is a core superego function and as an id type, a Type Eight would have a hard time internalizing that.
The virtue of Eight is magnanimity, which represents judicious use of their power. As they gain a deeper understanding of themselves, they realize that there is a right time and a wrong time for their aggression. This helps free them from their fundamental delusion that they must always be expanding their realm of power; as Daniel Webster once said, "Liberty consists in wholesome restraint." With that restraint, Eights realize their liberty.
IV. Developmental Progression of Type Eight
Early in life, the Type Eight is sensitive to Innocence and Truth.
The material world (life) corrupts this ideal into the delusion that no one is innocent and thus conflict is naturally acceptable because everyone must understand conflict on some level.
The Eight relies on lust to give the illusion of survival.
The Eight's virtue, magnanimity (nobility, willingness to face danger, beyond petty anger) leads them to their growth point of Two. Ironically, it would appear that magnanimity would hurt an Eight... but in the end, it is required for an Eight to develop as a person.
V. Wings
Enneagram theorists quickly discovered that each Enneagram type can have traits of the types around it. This is called "wing theory", and while some theorists dispute the finer points of it, it's generally agreed that each type has a connection to the types around it and one of these connections will be dominant. For example, Type Two is surrounded by Types One and Three. Someone could therefore be a Two with a One Wing (Two as their main type with some Type One traits), or a Two with a Three Wing (Two as their main type with some Type Three traits.) The notation for this is 2w1 and 2w3, respectively. It is generally held that one wing is more dominant than the other; while you may have traits of both wings, one is more pronounced. Some believe that you can have balanced (equal) wings, but this Enneagram type description operates under the "dominant wing" theory, which is the most prevalent in the Enneagram community.
Type Eight shares wings with Type Seven and Type Nine.
Remember the discussion of borders from the earlier section? Both 8w7 and 8w9 seek to protect their border with the outside world, but they do it in different ways.
Type Eight with a Seven Wing:
8w7s are more likely to favor offense over defense, using preemptive strikes to keep people away from striking the metaphorical (and physical) barrier between themselves and the outside world.
8w7s like to expand aggressively, and they want to make sure others know it. They tend to flaunt their toughness, even subconsciously, to signal a warning to possible challengers.
Type Eight with a Nine Wing:
8w9s are more likely to set up a border, make it clear, and respond with overwhelming force if someone dares to cross. They tend to be practical, down-to-earth, and generally they don't look for fights. However, if one starts, they will gladly finish it.
Eight with a Nine wing is sometimes called "The Bear", because they tend to go their own way, and fight when disturbed or when they want something. They aren't as likely to push on other people like an 8w7 would.
One simplistic rule of thumb is that 8w7 is offensive, 8w9 is defensive, but both are Eights and share all of the same core desires. 8w9 is not soft because it contains elements of Type Nine. Both are still equally lusty and aggressive.
VI. Growth and Stress ArrowsOne theme in the study of the Enneagram is interconnectivity. Each type is distinct, but it does not stand alone. We discussed Wings earlier, which shows how a type can have traits of the types next to it. Another example of interconnectivity are stress and growth arrows. When an individual is in a state of stress or growth, they can take on traits of other types. There is some disagreement within the Enneagram community as to what precipitates a stress or growth condition, but I believe that the most logical interpretation of this is that a type becomes stressed when they succumb to their vice, while a type grows when they are following their virtue. Following a vice is a natural response, as it is the easy way out. Virtues are risky because they cause a person to confront their "dark sides" or fears and may result in a radical reassessment of one's thoughts and actions. Nevertheless, the Enneagram is a system of personal growth and the stress/growth arrow dynamic reflects that, as it embodies the concept that transcendence is hard work, and it's always darkest before the dawn.
This is also in line with the overarching theme that the Nine types are basically just different means of perceiving reality, and no type is more correct than any other.
Growth Arrow to Type Two:
The Growth arrow represents a state of mind that is ultimately necessary for a type to reach, but which embodies qualities that could be a threat to that type. For example, Type Eight grows in the direction of Type Two, even though the sentimental and helpful qualities of Type Two could compromise Type Eight's survival. One of the challenges of the Enneagram consists of identifying the best way to integrate these growth characteristics in a sustainable manner.
As a Type Eight grows, they begin to push against the limits imposed upon them by the Body Triad. The bright line that used to separate them from others begins to blur and the Type Eight starts to internalize the needs of others. In effect, they begin to see others as an extension of the self. This is a common element of Type Two, which explains the Eight -> Two growth arrow.
But this growth arrow has limitations. An Eight does not become a Two, but rather, can gain (somewhat superficial) aspects of a Two. Survival remains the inherent focus of an Eight, and so protection of others is often focused primarily on the survival and physical well-being of others. An Eight, even in a strong growth state, may still see some matters (such as simply being "upset") as essentially trivial because it does not affect survival value. On the other hand, matters such as the invasion of physical space and deception are likely to be hot button issues for an Eight.
Eights in a growth arrow to Two generally do not become champions for the underdog that is a quality that is more accurately attributed to Type One.
Stress Arrow to Type Five:
On the other hand, stress arrows tend to indicate a retreat position. An Eight normally relies on intuitive action; but not in the MBTI sense. In this case, intuitive action refers to acting on "gut reactions" and planning is less common. It is normally important for a Type Eight to maintain their momentum.
However, if for some reason they are unable to maintain this momentum, they may become secretive and isolated like a Type Five. In that case, intuitive action is replaced by plotting and suspicion. A severely stressed Eight can therefore appear like a Type Five.
VII. Type Eight VariantsSelf-Preservation Eights tend to be rugged survivalists whose top priority is physical security. The stereotypical mega-capitalist CEO is usually a Self-Preservation Eight. They like to own a great deal of property.
Social Eights desire social interaction and dominance. Their lust in channeled into society and groups, which usually drives them to become the leader. Of course, their motivations for becoming the leader are generally self-protection as they resent being controlled.
Sexual Eights are usually very individualistic but are more willing to sacrifice physical comfort than a Self-Preservation Eight. Sexual Eights are usually more lusty a sexual way, as they desire their partner completely and fully. There is almost a desire to absorb the partner into their sexuality.
VIII. Comparison within Triads
Within the Head/Body/Image Triads:
Head: These types are primarily concerned with their own thoughts.
Image: These types take action when it comes to their image, which they equate with reality.
Body: These types focus on the border between themselves and the world around them.
Within the body triad…
(Compared to One) Eights may have a strong sense of integrity but lack the moral structure of a One.
(Compared to Nine) Eights see their survival as paramount and thus will resist others far more than a Nine would.
Within the image triad…
(Compared to Two) Eights will not open themselves up like a Two would.
(Compared to Three) Unlike Type Three, an Eight would be comfortable presenting a rough (unplanned) image.
(Compared to Four) Eights do not see themselves as fundamentally detached from reality like a Four. In fact, Eights would see reality as something to be mastered and not something to withdraw from.
Within the head triad…
(Compared to Five) Eights would not plan extensively like a Five.
(Compared to Six) Eights may experience anxiety but not as a core feature of their personality, like a Six.
(Compared to Seven) Sevens tend to cope with an "I just don't care" mentality, while Eights would confront a problem head on.
Within the Hornevian triads:
The Hornevian triads describe how each type copes with a situation. They were originally developed by psychologist Karen Horney.
In this context, "aggressive" means "action-oriented." It doesn't mean belligerence.
Type Three – Takes action to gain success.
Type Seven – Takes action to keep engaged in interesting activities.
Type Eight - Takes action to secure more resources and to continue to consume.
Type Four – Withdraws to protect themselves from being absorbed into the crowd; to maintain their uniqueness.
Type Five – Withdraws to defend themselves and to get a better/clearer view of the situation.
Type Nine – Withdraws to maintain peace.
In this context, these types are compliant to their superegos. It doesn't mean that they are pushovers.
Type One – Complies with the superego because they will feel corrupt if they don't.
Type Two – Complies with the superego because they will feel useless if they don't.
Type Six – Complies with the superego because they will feel insecure if they don't.
Within the Harmonic triads:
The Harmonic triads describe the primary problem-solving skill employed by each type.
Positive Outlook:
Type Two – Twos focus on their own goodness and virtue.
Type Seven – Sevens adopt an "it doesn't affect me" mentality.
Type Nine – Nines focus on the "silver lining" in a situation instead of negative aspects.
Type One – Ones must be competent to maintain their set of ethics.
Type Three – Threes must be competent to avoid challenges to their success.
Type Five – Fives must be competent to survive in the "outer world."
Type Four – Fours may take things very personally, which makes them very emotionally intense.
Type Six – Sixes are observant of their world and react accordingly.
Type Eight – Eights are quick to react to challenges and to assert their boundaries.
IX. Enneagram and MBTI InteractionThe Enneagram describes motivations, while the MBTI describes modes of information processing. It would stand to reason that MBTI is subordinate to Enneagram, as the Enneagram deals with more basic motivations. Imagine that two people want to tell the same story, but one is a writer and one is a musician. One will write a book while the other will write a song but both have the same origin point.
So let's look at each type and how that form of information processing would appear when directed by the primary survival motivation of Type Eight:
Extroverted Sensation Types (ESTP and ESFP)
Extroverted Sensation is associated with a strong connection to the "present moment" and places an emphasis on practicality in life. The first factor makes a Type Eight ESxP probably one of the more physically imposing type combinations.
The second means that ESxP Eights are usually very decisive, and in some cases they can be confused with ESxJs.
Extroverted Intuition Types (ENTP and ENFP)
Extroverted Intuition is essentially the opposite of Extroverted Sensing: instead of focusing on present information, Extroverted Intuition brainstorms a myriad number of possibilities that may or may not be true. Extroverted Intuition types tend to be quick on their feet – mentally speaking – and Type Eight ENxPs rely on that ability for survival.
Much of an ENxP Eight's mental energy, therefore, is devoted to maintaining that competitive edge.
Compare and contrast:
ESxP – Boxing – American fighting sport that is generally won through overwhelming force and agility.
ENxP – Akidio – Japanese martial art in which practitioners manipulate the force of their opponent's attack and turn it against the opponent.
Extroverted Thinking Types (ENTJ, ESTJ)
Extroverted Thinking breaks a process down into its logical components. ExTJ Eights use that ability to break down a situation to assert control over others. They are the most likely to employ a "divide and conquer" type attack.
Contrast ExTJ and ENxP. The first group wants to break down the enemy and consume it piece by piece; the latter wants to overtake the enemy by outperforming it.
Extroverted Feeling Types (ENFJ, ESFJ)
Extroverted Feeling refers to an awareness of the emotions or hidden beliefs of another, but does not necessarily imply that an Fe-dominant person must bend to those emotions.
This means that Extroverted Feeling types often have a unique insight into the intentions of others. ExFJ Eights are particularly adept at finding "weak spots" in other people's emotional armor.
Introverted Sensation Types (ISTJ, ISFJ)
Introverted Sensation types tend to use their experience to guide them; Si dominant Type Eights may be overly focused on setting out rules and holding people to them.
Introverted Intuition Types (INTJ, INFJ)
Ni-Dominant types tend to have brilliant insights into "what's going on", although they do so in different ways.
INTJ Eights rely on their innate ability to determine what's "out of order" and respond accordingly. INTJ Eights tend to be planners. Contrast this with their opposite, ESTP: an ESTP is likely to jump right into the fight, while an INTJ will observe and plan ahead.
INFJ Eights, as they couple their Ni with Fe, have a startling intuition into other people and will use it to their advantage in a conflict. This is the type that probably finds it the easiest to navigate difficult social groups.
Introverted Thinking Types (INTP, ISTP)
Ti dominant types enhance their survival value by spotting inconsistencies in the behaviors of others and acting on them
Contrast this with INTP/ISTP Type Five – instead of planning, they are more likely to just act.
Introverted Feeling Types (INFP, ISFP)
Fi dominant Eights tend to act instinctively and can develop an arrogant attitude in the pursuit of their goals. They may see themselves as so fundamentally correct that understanding the position of others isn't useful.
Contrary to popular belief, Fi plus Enneagram Eight does not make a touchy-feely Enneagram Eight.
X. Paths to Security
Type One - "I will be secure if I'm perfect."
Type Two - "I will be secure if I'm loved, appreciated or respected."
Type Three - "I will be secure if I am successful."
Type Four - "I will be secure if I am unique."
Type Five - "I will be secure if I withdraw from harm."
Type Six - "I will be secure if I am always aware of danger."
Type Seven - "I will be secure if I can plan for the future."
Type Eight - "I will be secure if I can control the world around me."
Type Nine - "I will be secure if I have peace."
XI. Freudian AssociationType 8: Id Power Focused.
From my article, "The Freudian Theory of Enneagram"
From my article, "The Freudian Theory of Enneagram"
Basic Fear: To be harmed or controlled by others.
Basic Desire: To be in control of their own life.
Agency: Id.
A Type 8 individual has a well-developed id, which motivates them to be independent and resourceful. A Type 8 knows what they want - and they know that the most direct path is the quickest way to get it. For that reason, Type 8s are straightforward, assertive, and direct. The id tends to push to get to what it wants, so it won't back down when confronted with resistance. In fact, resistance only makes the Type 8 amp up the aggression; they are going to get what they want.
The vice of Type 8 is often called "lust", and that makes sense. They want what they want, and they want lots of it.
This is why conflict energizes an 8: it satisfies their id desires. In fact, some 8s may pursue conflict simply because it's so satisfying to the id. Contrast this with counterphobic 6: a cp6 is aggressive to deal with fear, an 8 may be aggressive because the aggression itself is satisfying.
However, the id has a side to it that's more playful, and this comes out with the 8 in private. The 8 ideal is magnamity; the ability to use their power in an equitable and just way. This tends to develop as an 8 grows older.
To Encourage Integration: Understand that there's a higher power in not using your power at all. The ultimate test of power is whether you can control yourself or not.
To Avoid Disintegration: Use your energy in a just way. Not everything is deserving of aggressive confrontation. Understand that not everyone sees conflict the way that you do.
Type 8 Wings:
Type 8 with a 7 Wing (Id-Id): The id qualities of 8 and 7 stack in the 8w7. Because of the enthusiast 7 wing, they 8w7 is often very adventurous and intense. 8w7 is also the most likely type to seek conflict for the sake of conflict alone. 8w7s are often unaware of their own strength and may push much more than is necessary to get what they want.
Type 8 with a 9 Wing (Id-Ego): The ego element of Type 9 makes the 8w9 more aware of their impulses. An 8w9 is less likely to underestimate their power, like an 8w7. This awareness gives the 8w9 better impulse control than 8w7, so the 8w9 is less likely to strike out at others without being provoked first. They are much more likely to draw a line in the sand and dare you to cross it. However, 8w9s run the risk of bottling up their aggression and having it explode at inopportune moments.

Columbus Crew SC 2, DC United 0 | 2017 MLS Match Recap
After a year away, a sizzling Columbus Crew SC side are back in the Audi MLS Cup Playoffs.
Josh Williams and Justin Meram scored on either side of halftime and Columbus eased to an Eastern Conference berth with a 2-0 victory over last-place D.C. United on Saturday night.
Other than spell late in the first half, Crew SC were dominant in their final regular season home game of 2017, outpossessing D.C.57% to 43% while completing 83% of their passes.
That helped coach Gregg Berhalter's side clinch their first return to the postseason since reaching the 2015 MLS Cup Final. In the process, Columbus set a new club record with its 12th home win of the season and pushed its unbeaten run to eight matches.
Three Things
- CLOCKWORK YELLOW: At their best, Crew SC are known for flummoxing and frustrating opponents with their possession-based football, and that happened in several sequences on Saturday night. The most obvious came on the buildup to Meram's career-high 13th goal, which included a clever give-and-go between Artur and Federico Higuain as well as a deft dummy from Hector Jimenez. That said, Meram still had an awful lot to do for his sensational finish.

- THE LAST PEAK AT PIPA?: Knowing that Federico Higuain may be departing after the season, Crew SC fans flew a tifo in tribute to the Argentine playmaker who has called Columbus home since 2012. They still have an outside chance to take fourth place and secure a home knockout round match. Otherwise, Columbus would need to reach the conference semifinals to guarantee another home match for their captain, who registered his 10th assist of the season on Williams' opener.

That's his fourth helper in the past two matches. https://t.co/ZWeOe6cWou
- DIMINISHED RETURN: D.C. goalkeeper Steve Clark would probably rather forget his first game back in Columbus since making 100 league appearances for Crew SC as the starter from 2014-2016. Clark made three saves and wasn't at fault for either goal. But he's now allowed five goals in his last two games filling in for injured Bill Hamid after preserving a shutout a week ago in his D.C. debut.

Lake Tahoe, CA (PRWEB) December 09, 2013
Colder temperatures and the storm everyone has been waiting for finally hit the Lake Tahoe basin bringing with it fresh powder and happy faces. According to the editors at TahoesBest.com, Tahoe's busiest travel & tourism web site that provides viewers with up to date information on Lake Tahoe ski resorts, weather forecasts, road conditions and daily ski resort snow reports, there are seven alpine ski & ride resorts now open, with several more set to open soon, and two cross-country resorts open.
"Kirkwood reported 32 inches of new snow at its summit from this last storm and Heavenly reported over two feet of the fresh white stuff," according to Lindsey Skinner, editor at TahoesBest.com. Lindsey added, "The forecast calls for cold temps and sunny skies which is the perfect combination for power skiers and boarders but also for folks that prefer the groomers".
On Tahoe's North Shore, Sugar Bowl timed its opening perfectly opening Saturday for weekend skiing until December 14th when they plan to open full-time. Squaw, Boreal, and Sugar Bowl all reported over a foot of new snow from the storm.
For cross country enthusiasts, the storm did the trick with Royal Gorge XC opening 13 trails and 14km today. Tahoe XC is open with 16km of trails.
For non skiers or riders, Heavenly opened its Adventure Peak Sledding and Boreal opened its tubing operations. Granlibakken, one of Tahoe's best kept secrets on the North Shore, has its novice slope and sledding hills open for business.
Transportation - Interstate 80 and Highway 50 are both open as is the Reno-Tahoe International Airport.

text: To minimize the impacts of climate change on human wellbeing, governments, development agencies, and civil society organizations have made substantial investments in improving people's capacity to adapt to change. Yet to date, these investments have tended to focus on a very narrow understanding of adaptive capacity. Here, we propose an approach to build adaptive capacity across five domains: the assets that people can draw upon in times of need; the flexibility to change strategies; the ability to organize and act collectively; learning to recognize and respond to change; and the agency to determine whether to change or not.

Okay. Lets all give a thanks to the Bachelorette's Ivan for his supreme lack of culinary prowess. How wonderful that the poor man had no idea about the anatomy of an avocado. How delightful to watch this idiotic show slide firmly into the farcical.
The innocence of dear Ivan's face as he shoved the two plump, pip-filled fruits into the blender and pressed go. The serious faces of intent as our bachelorette and her other suitor awaited desert, valiantly ignoring the insistent screech of the machine's impotent grind.
But she kept her poker-face on straight – a task no doubt aided by the modern-day mother's helper, botulinum toxin – for true love is no laughing matter, and our heroine is heroically and stoically determined to find the truth. Is Bill really there for the Right Reasons? Because Ali's heard rumors from his rival what's-his-name – the rugged, sun-tanned one who gets a bit wound up after a few too many vinos.
Cut to Ivan's ongoing emasculation in the kitchen: prodding an avo's stubborn pear-shaped body further into the blades with bemused consternation.
Cut back to the hastily staged alfresco table. Is it true Bill? Our fair princess asks. Are you really here for me? Or, shock horror, are you here for the dreaded Wong Reasons?
No, says Mr. box-jaw Bill, I'm here for you sweet lady, I am but a victim of the suntanned-boozer's spiteful ways.
Meanwhile Ivan appears with their pip-infused mousse. It's a bit rough, he warns. Cut to the valiant Ali tasting said mousse, the spoon slipping self-consciously between plump, princess lips. The air is tense. The mousse is rough. It's almost time to make her proclamation. Who will stay to win the fair maiden's hand?
I'm sorry Ivan. The mousse was a bit rough and at the end of the day Ali has to Follow Her Heart. Not much choice when she knows next to nothing about what's in his head.

The different rules and regulations, the financing, the search, the home buying process can drive you up a wall. Learn the different tricks and tips for a more successful home buying experience.
When looking to purchase a home, do not hire an appraiser who was recommended to you by your agent. Due to a conflict of interest, the appraiser may not be the best person for the job. Instead, find someone with several years of experience and who is state-licensed.
A terrific tip for prospective home buyers is to do the majority of their house hunting during the months of August and September. No doubt spring and summer months tend to see increased activity in the real estate market. So, waiting until later in the year can pay great dividends! Decreased competition for attractive properties and more motivated sellers who are more receptive to negotiation is a plus.
A down payment is not the only out of pocket fee that you are going to face when taking out a mortgage on a home. There are additional fees such as the closing cost, and some fees that may be charged by the realtor, that you may be charged before the home is yours.
Even if you think you know more about real estate than most people, real estate agents are valuable assets worth paying for when looking to buy or sell a home. They know their area well and can often spot someone charging too much or too little for a home before anyone else can.
Know your budget before you start shopping for a home. Experts recommend that housing costs not exceed 30% of monthly income. Be sure that you have plenty of room in your budget for unexpected expenses such as repairs or remodeling before committing to a loan. If it seems like too much of a stretch, it is probably too expensive.
Owning a home, unlike renting a house, offers you freedom and individualism because a landlord may not allow changes to the property. If you own a house you are free to change anything you like. You can paint the rooms, knock out walls, and change the flooring, among other things.
When purchasing a vacation home, try to find one that can be rented out when you are not living there. This is a good investment for you and you know that your house is safe when you are not there. A real estate agent can help you find a vacation home that can be rented out.
When trying to come up with a down payment, there are some helpful things that you can be doing. Ask for financial help from your parents, start selling some extra stuff you have lying around that you no longer need, or you can take money out of your retirement funds. Just make sure to pay yourself back.
Home ownership may be the quintessential American dream, but it should be entered into carefully and with much forethought. The responsibilities that come with owning a home are significant and costs go way beyond the price of the house. Property taxes, HOA fees and home owners insurance are an important part of the long-term picture. It is also essential to remember that home maintenance is a continual process with costs that can get quite steep. Replacing old appliances, repairing roofs and maintaining plumbing and heating systems can implode a budget if not planned for in advance. When you own a house there is no landlord to rely on to make repairs. Be sure you are ready to juggle the true costs of home ownership before you take the plunge.
Be very careful when buying a house through an auction. The first price may look good and be very appealing, however, once everyone starts bidding on it, it is too easy to get emotional on things and overbid in the end. So if you go to an auction, set a limit and be very strict about it.
These tips can start you off in your quest for knowledge about buying a home. You will be able to avoid the most common pitfalls if you apply these tips carefully. Have the best of luck in your hunt, and appreciate your new residence once you have it.

Guidance Counselors
Citizens for Quality Education believes that hiring an additional guidance counselor at the high school would afford more students more personal attention in navigating their next steps beyond MHS and towards becoming productive members of society . . . be it in college or at a job. Today, students and parents need help with high school course selection which begins in grade 8, with career counseling and later with the college search, the college application process, financial aid for college, etc.
Knowing that other New Jersey public high schools in our same socio-economic district factor group (DFG) have a counselor/student ratio of about 1/175 (while the counselor/student ratio at MHS is nearly 1/300) allows us to see what is in the realm of possiblities for the Metuchen School District. There are even many New Jersey public high schools in a lower DFG with a better counselor/student ratio than Metuchen High School's. By hiring an additional guidance counselor, the counselor/ student ratio could be reduced to 1/200 at MHS.
Here's what others have to say about the counselor/ student ratio:
from the National Association of College Admission Counseling (NACAC) "Statement on Precollege Guidance and Counseling and the Role of the School Counselor" (June 1990):
"We acknowledge the published report High School by Ernest Boyer, with its recommended ideal counselor/student ratio of 1/100, and the position statement of the American School Counselor Association (ASCA) with its recommendation that the ratio be between 1/100 (ideal) and 1/300 (maximum)."
For the full NACAC statement and to learn about the important role counselors play in a high school, click on its title: Precollege Guidance and Counseling and the Role of the School Counselor
To understand the level of attention that a guidance counselor can provide for his or her students and their parents in a public high school with a counselor/student ratio of 1/150 , please read the New York Times article from the Education Life Section (January 6, 2008) by clicking on its title: Guidance Counseling: V. I. P.
Please Note: In September 2012, Ms. Tiffany Goodson was hired as the Supervisor of Guidance (K-12). In addition, there are 3 full time guidance counselors at Metuchen High School.

Man mistakes robbery for joke
FORT GRATIOT TOWNSHIP, Mich. -- A convenience store customer was struck on the head with a gun when he mistook a robber for a friend who he thought was playing a practical joke, police said.
The masked man entered Sandler's Party Store about 10:30 p.m. Wednesday, brandished a handgun and demanded money.
Patrick O'Brien, 21, walked up to the man, thinking he was a friend, and grabbed him in a playful way, police said. The gunman then hit O'Brien in the head with his gun.
The gunman fled with an undisclosed amount of cash.
O'Brien was not seriously injured and did not seek medical treatment, the Times Herald of Port Huron reported.
He was visiting a friend at the store in Fort Gratiot Township, 55 miles northeast of Detroit.

This study explores if radiation and erythropoietin (Epo) synergize to alter the self-renewal of breast cancer stem cells (BCSCs) and to reprogram differentiated breast cancer (BC) cells into induced breast cancer stem cells (iBCSCs). Using established cell lines and a unique imaging system for breast cancer stem cells, patient-derived tumor samples and clinical pretreatment blood samples of BC patients undergoing radiation treatment (RT) it will explore if Epo acts on irradiated BCSCs directly, if it alters the BCSC nich, and which pathways are engaged during radiation-induced reprogramming of differentiated BC cells in the presence of Epo. In a prospective clinical study we will test, if high serum Epo level correlate with high BCSC burden, nodal status and local control after breast-conserving surgery (BCS) and RT. We hypothesize, that ionizing radiation reprograms differentiated breast cancer cells into radioresistant iBCSCs and that endogenous Epo synergizes with radiation to increase the BCSCs pool, thereby impairing radiation therapy outcome. Limited stage BC is usually treated with mastectomy or BCS and RT. For RT, low hemoglobin (Hb) levels predict early treatment failure. Attempts to increase Hb levels using Epo led to inferior outcome of BC patients, suggesting that signaling through the Epo receptor promotes tumor growth. Recent studies indicate that BCs are organized hierarchically with a small population of BCSCs, capable of re-growing a tumor while their progeny lack this feature. According to the cancer stem cell (CSC) hypothesis, cure is only possible if all CSCs are eliminated, suggesting that the deleterious effects of Epo were mediated by effects of Epo on BCSCs. Because of the rare nature of BCSCs, the effects of Epo on these cells have not been investigated. BCSCs are relatively radioresistant. Furthermore, EpoR expression on tumor cells is inversely correlated with prognosis and rhEpo and RT increases the number of BCSCs in vitro possibly through RT-induced reprogramming of differentiated BC cells into iBCSCs. The hypothesis will be tested by 1) investigating the effects of Epo and RT on BCSCs, 2) exploring the pathways activated during reprogramming, and 3) testing if endogenous Epo affects BCSCs clinically. Cancer-related anemia is a condition with a high incidence in cancer patients. This proposal will study if erythropoietin activates pathways that synergize with radiation to increase the pool of therapy-resistant BCSCs and evaluate if endogenous Epo level correlate with BCSC burden and clinical outcome. The long-term goals of this proposal are to study under which circumstances Epo interferes with BCSC numbers and treatment outcome. Understanding the pathways may lead to novel combined treatments that will improve BC treatment outcome.
This proposal will study the effects of erythropoietin at RT on cancer stem cells in experimental models and clinical patient samples. It aims to understand how erythropoietin affects cancer stem cells to uncover novel ways to improve the efficacy of radiation treatment.

One person died on the spot while two others are battling for life at Gweru Provincial Hospital after the vehicle they were travelling in was involved in a head on collision at the Redcliff turnoff along the Gweru-Kwekwe highway on Thursday evening.
The deceased was driving a Nissan X-Trail towards Gweru when she tried to overtake a haulage truck, resulting in a head on collision with a Kwekwe bound Jeep Cherokee.
Two other female passengers who were in the Nissan X-Trail were rushed to Kwekwe District Hospital and were referred to Gweru Provincial Hospital.
The driver of the Jeep Cherokee escaped with minor injuries and was treated and discharged at Kwekwe hospital.

This charming, light and cosy cottage is ideally situated in a tranquil spot close to the heart of a thriving Georgian market town, making it a perfect base for exploring the Norfolk countryside.
A lovingly updated traditional cottage, this property offers a comfortable and stylish place for four guests to enjoy a break in the attractive Norfolk town of Holt. On the ground floor the lounge is a beautifully light-filled space, whilst the kitchen/diner is another generously-sized room with a good range of equipment. Outside a garden path leads from the house to a sunny patio area which is ideal for al fresco dining during the summer months.
Situated within 0.5 miles of Holt town centre, this property is perfectly situated for popping into town for a browse around the shops and a bite to eat in one of the numerous independent restaurants which can be found on the town's elegant Georgian streets. A mile from the property's front door, meanwhile, the handsome steam trains of the North Norfolk Railway Company run north to the coastal village of Weybourne and onto the seaside town of Sheraton 6 miles away: a delightful day out.
Holt enjoys a fantastic location in rural North Norfolk, surrounded by pretty villages and flat countryside which is perfect for walking and cycling, and yet only 4 miles from the coast. Head 10 miles east to the traditional seaside resort of Cromer and enjoy a day on the sandy beach, lunching at one of the seafood restaurants, perhaps ending the day with a show at the end-of-pier theatre. Or maybe you'd prefer a day at the unspoilt beach at Holkham Bay (16 miles): a vast stretch of sandy which is surely one of the most beautiful in the country.
From guests that have stayed at the property.

Very nice cottage just a 10 minute walk to the town. Spotlessly clean and nicely presented. We really enjoyed our stay.
The most northerly county in the East of England, Norfolk is a land of beautiful contrasts. From the swooning reed beds and endless maze of waterways in the Norfolk Broads; the unspoilt stretches of fens and shingle spits where bird and wildlife thrive; a famous royal palace and the historic cathedral city of Norwich, this enticing area of England is just waiting to be discovered. Visit Sandringham Palace and see where the Queen lives or find out where lavender grows; you could journey to one of the largest seal haul outs in Europe at Blakeney Point or have a traditional day at the seaside at Cromer and Great Yarmouth. The cathedral gilded city of Norwich is a wonderful place to lose yourself either walking the ramparts of Norwich Castle or the RAF Air Defence Radar Museum. The city has an exceptional array of shops, cafes and restaurants to enjoy. Well connected to the national rail and road network, Norfolk is easily accessible from London, the M25 and from major city terminals.
Norfolk is characterised by its horizons and big skies, straight highways and rural trappings. Also, when it comes to attractions, visitors to the county will be spoilt for choice. If you love animals and birds, head to RSPB Titchwell Marsh, or the Cley-Next-The-Sea. With such a long coastline Norfolk boasts some magnificent stretches of beach – favourites include Cromer, Old Hunstanton, Wells-Next-The Sea, the dunes of Winterton-on-Sea, and Brancaster (a favourite for dog owners).
There are so many places to visit and activities to get involved in on a Norfolk holiday. We have some lovely properties including country cottages, farm conversions, large family houses, apartments and surburban home from homes in our collection. Why not find your perfect holiday home today?

Author and naturalist Stephen Moss digs beneath the surface of the famous carol 'The Twelve Days of Christmas', to discover an alternative meaning to the verses: and reveals that in his view this is, indeed, a bird-centred tribute to the Festive Season. He weaves history, culture, bird behaviour and folklore into a compelling narrative for each species, tracing its fortunes over the past two centuries, and ending with a powerful message about the plight of some of our best-loved birds.
Join us for a celebration of the most magical time of the year, in praise of our fine-feathered friends.

3 July 2019, Harare, Zimbabwe. – Rosatom Central and Southern Africa presented its innovative solutions in nuclear and hydro for both on-grid and remote off-grid systems at the Zimbabwe 2nd Renewable Energy & Power Infrastructure Investors Conference (Renpower Zimbabwe). Dmitry Shornikov, CEO of the African division of global nuclear giant Rosatom highlighted the technical and financial benefits of implementing small scale hydro plants and small modular reactors in Africa. He also urged delegates to take note of the increasingly important environmental benefits that these low carbon sources of generating electricity have to offer.
Zimbabwe's Vision 2030 aims to ensure that Zimbabwe becomes a middle-income economy, this is certainly a very worthy challenge that will require vast amounts of stable and affordable electricity to achieve. Power is the key to unlocking the vast economic potential the country has to offer, this in all sectors including manufacturing, mining, agriculture, health and education. Considering that over 10 million Zimbabweans currently suffer from energy poverty, the ambitious goal of the Vision 2030 can only be achieved by pooling all available solutions and developing both on- and off-grid systems.
The mobility of Rosatom offerings in small scale-hydro and small modular reactors (SMRs) can provide Zimbabwe with an excellent solution for power supply in both energy-intensive urban areas as well as remote and poorly accessible territories. Shornikov introduced the company's wide range of hydro solutions which incorporate various different turbine designs and range from 30kw to 30MW.
He went on to highlight the company's innovative containerized mini-hydro plants. "A single containerized mini-hydro system is capable of providing electricity to between 250 and 400 houses, installation requires no dam construction and are environmentally friendly. These containerized units have a lifespan of roughly 30 years and the estimated breakeven period for a 1 MW plant with a capacity factor of 93% is only three years."
On SMRs Shornikov noted that Rosatom's flagship onshore SMR RITM-200 has an electrical capacity of 100 MW, a capacity factor of over 90% and an operating life of 60 years. "Taking into consideration the current energy shortfall in the country, with approximately only four to six hours of electricity available to households per day, the capacity factor of these innovative nuclear power plants is vitally important. Unlike other clean generating sources which rely directly on nature to produce electricity these units are able to produce power 24 hours per day."
According to the International Energy Agency report "Nuclear Power in a Clean Energy System" published this year, 'Modular design and factory construction [of SMRs] mitigates project management risk, which is the single most-important obstacle to financing. SMRs may be able to generate sufficient revenue from the production of heat, fresh water, hydrogen or energy (heat) storage, in addition to the revenue from electricity generation, to recover their costs.'
Shornikov concluded: "In Russia, nuclear provides over 18% of total electricity generation, our industry employs directly over 250 000 employees and we firmly believe that nuclear power is the technology of the future. With our over 75 years of experience I am proud to say that Rosatom's business contributes substantially to the sustainable development of society. We improve people's lives, create new opportunities and protect the environment. We look forward to extending our expertise to Zimbabwe and thus contribute meaningfully to Vision 2030."

Today I'm linking up with Andrea, Erika, and Narci, and everyone else for Friday Favorites. Here are some of my favorites from the week:
My baby's first Easter was definitely a FAVORITE for me! Easter weekend was exhausting, but a great one for our family. We got to spend time with both sides of our family. What more do we need?! Real life post here: We took this pic, and Lee and Liam were so cute in their yellow polos. Shortly after, Liam had a blowout and got poop all over himself and Lee, and they both had to change. I was glad we snapped a pic when we did!
Liam has been SPOILED this week getting to spend time with 2 of his 2 grandmas, his aunt and cousin, and today his grandpa. (Who am I kidding, his aunt, cousin, and grandma spoil him with love and playtime every week). Having mine and Lee's parents able to be so involved with Liam is definitely a favorite. He hit the JACKPOT when it comes to grandparents!
I already posted this recipe, but its still a FAVORITE this week. Peanut Butter Lasagna! We only ate about half of the peanut butter lasagna on Sunday, so I've been snacking on it this week. So. Good. But the cookies are starting to get too soft, so tonight whatever is left is getting tossed in the garbage.
Lee was out of town for work Monday and Tuesday. My mom stayed over from Easter, which was nice to have her help especially while Lee was gone. Lee came home Tuesday evening, and I'd say Liam was excited to see his daddy! Seeing the bond these two have together is definitely a FAVORITE of mine.
My last FAVORITE of the week is a random act of kindness! A colleague from another department delivered this to me yesterday, and it just made my day. I'm assuming she hand painted this rock. The pic doesn't do it justice. Its SO PRETTY! It's always great to feel appreciated. Now I need to pay it forward and do something nice for someone else. Maybe I'll think on ideas this weekend and make it happen next week!

When did you buy your shoes?
Where did you buy your shoes?
Why did you buy your shoes?
What do you use your shoes for?
How happy are you with your shoes?
"The conception, execution and function of the art of any cultural system can be considered to be a subsystem, equally integral to the growth of that culture."
— DorothyWashburn
Here is my reflection on the difference in cultural attitudes about shoes between the American culture and the Iraqi culture. In this entry, I have juxtaposed images from my earlier work, with recent images culled from the headlines in the wake of Muntadhar al-Zeidi's shoe-attack on U.S. President Bush. It is my intention to allow the compared images, and the formal and conceptual connections between them, to speak for themselves.
During my collaboration (1977-79) with archeologist Dorothy Washburn on the study of Native American pottery designs circa 1000 CE, I came upon an image of a ceramic foot effigy. It was wearing a sandal style of Mexican origin, unique in its southwestern burial.
This foot find triggered the artwork, SHOE FIELD, ongoing for 16 years and still going strong. I produced five interactive installations and four artist's books about people and their shoes and about people and other peoples' shoes. The first interactive installation took place in 1982 at Berkeley Computer Systems.
Hanging on display in the storefront window were continuous computer forms of Dr. Washburn's research data about Native American pottery designs. I had graphically transcribed their research codes and had also transferred images of ancient Native American sandals directly onto the computer forms.
Hanging nearby in the store window was a computer analysis of 44 pairs of my shoes, with hand drawn illustrations. This artwork appeared on similar continuous computer forms as the above-discussed sandal images. The 44 pairs of shoes themselves were displayed on shoe racks.
The participants each received a number according to the order of their entry into the computer store.
The participants then put their best foot forward ready to engage in an unusual art event. Taking turns, each participant sat on a camel-like chair and selected either a velvet pillow, a cobbler's shoe form, or a plywood board upon which to pose their shoed foot for a Polaroid snapshot. Then each person went to the computer to answer the shoe questions.
I compiled into book format the participants' photos and their verbal statements (reasons why they were wearing those shoes that evening).
By quantifying the foot position, the chosen footrest and the shoe answers, I calculated the person's shoe "charge" value. This "charge" represented the degree of difference between that individual's "shoe-psyche" and the average "shoe-psyche" of the whole group.
I used each participant's "charge number" and the number corresponding to their entry into the computer store, to execute the Electric Field Theory program that generated the Shoe-Field Plot.
Shoe participant #44 was calculated as having charge "–1". The minus number is indicated on the diagram by the empty center of his non-interactive shoe-psyche plot. Shoe wearer
#44 had not answered any shoe questions. This negative response was counter-balanced by other popular characteristics, i.e. closed-laced shoes and extension of both feet on the plywood board.
a) INTERACTIVE SHOE-FIELD PLOT
b) PARTICIPATING SHOES
c) SHOE CHARGES
In another incarnation of my shoe works (1988), Shoe-Field, was programmed to be viewed on a personal computer. Participants selected a shoe they would like to interact with from the previously documented shoes.
[The text above says, "YOUR SHOE PSYCHE READING IS: Denotes ambivalence between uncritical companionship and disdain for lack of understanding. Keep a watchful control on emotional relationships."]
I documented the personal computer program into an interactive electronic book format. I titled it "YOUR FATE IS ON YOUR FEET". The participants answered questions on the computer about their own shoes and then selected a pair of shoes with which they would like to interact. The printer scrolled out a plot of the interaction that changed the configuration and a personalized "shoe-psyche" reading.
1. "With 16 severances: Bush and the shoes 2." The pun is that the Arabic word for severances shares a root with a synonym for shoes. (Adam)

Can you imagine being kept under house arrest by your family and friends and not allowed to go to the toilet for three days? That's one of the crazy wedding traditions in Malaysia.
The team at Cheapflights.com.au has found some curious wedding traditions that leave the 'something old, something new, something borrowed, something blue' for dead.
Traditionally, in South Korea, the groom gives his new mother-in-law ducks or geese to show his fidelity – since both of these birds mate for life.
In India, the groom's shoes are stolen (for a short time). In Denmark, it's tradition for one of the groom's socks to be cut in half.
It's a busy affair in South Africa where, 12 items are incorporated into the wedding ceremony – salt, pepper, wheat, wine, bitter herbs, a holy book, a broom, a spear, a spoon, some honey, a shield and a pot – to symbolise the challenges that the couple will face during their lives together.
In Germany, the tradition is hard work with newlyweds sawing through a large wooden log together, showing their strength and teamwork.
Peru has, by far, the most delicious tradition on our list. It's a cake pull. Before the newlyweds cut their wedding cake, the single female guests each take hold of a white ribbon that's baked into it. One of the ribbons will have a ring attached and the woman who finds that one will be the next one married. That's yummier and beats getting caught up in a scrum to catch the bouquet.
Cheapflights.com.au a travel search comparison services that searches thousands of flights offerings for airline and travel agents sites, worldwide. It's completely free to use with no fees or charges and guests have the peace of mind knowing they are booking direct with the airline or travel agent.
If you are planning a destination wedding or a honeymoon, it's the best place to save time to research the best value travel deals.
