Market Commentary - 10.03.13
The U.S. government is in a shutdown. According to "Google,â€쳌 a shutdown is "a closure of a factory or system, typically a temporary closure due to a malfunction or for maintenance.â€쳌 Based on this definition, when we look at what has transpired in Washington, it's clear that there's a malfunction in the government. The two primary political parties are involved in another fiscal fist fight over federal spending, the debt ceiling and, indirectly, The Affordable Care Act (also referred to as ObamaCare). Beginning on October 1st, for the eighteenth time since 1976, Congress's inability to pass a budget and fund government operations has resulted in the shutdown of non-essential government operations. Despite fairly lame overtures by both parties to come to some type of agreement, the primary issue at hand is ObamaCare. The Republicans wish to delay, alter or repeal President Obama's hallmark initiative, while Democrats have asked for budget talks to continue without strings attached. Washington pundits can only guess how long the current impasse will last, but since 1976, using history as a guideline government shutdowns have ranged in duration from one to 21 days. This stalemate could certainly harm the economy if it does not end soon. In the short term, we believe a government shutdown would have minimal economic impact. However, a longer lasting impasse would begin to reduce fourth quarter economic growth. According to Capital Economics, the furloughing of 800,000 federal employees, as part of the government shutdown, will reduce spending by roughly $155 million per day. Over an entire year, the cost would be equivalent to about 0.3% decline in GDP, which is not ideal, but is manageable. Of course, the drop off in Federal spending is more than just the suspension of salary payments to employees. Based on last October's government spending, Capital Economics believes that total spending in "non-essential" departments (including employee salaries) was roughly $95 billion, which is equivalent to 6% of GDP on an annualized basis. That may be a worst case scenario. The actual decline in spending will likely be much smaller than that, perhaps 1% to 2% of annualized GDP. However, regardless of the actual financial effect of the shutdown, it will impact the currently fragile U.S. economy and, consequently, the stock and bond markets. While the government shutdown is a reality, is it just an appetizer for the main meal? While government shutdowns have unfortunately become somewhat common, investors are more concerned with the needed extension of the U.S. Government debt ceiling, set to be reached on October 17th. If a resolution is not found, beginning in the second half of October, the economic and market impact of the impasse would become much greater. In particular, the Treasury would not have enough cash on hand to make a scheduled Social Security payment of nearly $25 billion on November 1st. It would also be unable to meet a debt interest payment of roughly $30 billion that will fall due on November 15th, potentially triggering a default. The ramifications would be huge – potential downgrades by ratings agencies, elevated levels of market volatility, and a worsening economic situation. Furthermore, what cannot be measured is the indirect effect from businesses. With uncertainty in Washington and its potential effect on the economy, businesses leaders may be reluctant to increase capital expenditures or hire additional workers – both clearly not a good sign for a still fragile economy. Overall, we are entering a potentially volatile period for the financial markets. Increased uncertainty combined with below-trend economic growth will likely lead to sharp market fluctuations. To mitigate the risk of volatility, we remain committed to increased diversification. Within equities, we would begin reducing exposure to U.S. stocks and instead focus on better areas of opportunity – international developed markets. Within fixed income, we would maintain a bias toward spread product, such as corporate bonds, which generally pay a higher yield compared to similar Treasuries.

about Wendaferd
I was born to a carpenter and an artist/activist/homemaker in Indiana, right smack-dab in the middle of the middle class and white America. I am number 7 of 8. On a really good day my mother called me Wendaferd. I am an artist and the founder of SUGAR. My photographs explain what I am thinking. The image becomes a drawing of my conclusions. Within the captured moment lie my notions and opinions about the world I live. Cropping happens in the lens, eliminating unnecessary words, while enriching others that remain within the frame. I trust my instincts and intuitions as if they were logic. Gwendolyn Charlene Skaggs

Story highlights
- Two suspects blow themselves up
- Three others die in a gunfire exchange with police
- The attack on the airport takes place Saturday
- The Taliban says its target was an air force base
Five militants suspected to be behind an airport attack in Peshawar were killed Sunday morning when police raided a house where they were hiding.
The militants had taken the owner of the house hostage, said Peshawar Police Chief Imtiaz Altaf. When police raided the residence, two suspects blew themselves up and three others were killed in a gunfire exchange with officers.
Police had been looking for the men after three rockets were fired toward Peshawar's Bacha Khan International Airport on Saturday, killing at least nine people.
Syed Naveed Qamar, Pakistan's defense minister, said the target could have been an air force base, which is adjacent to the airport. Both the airport and the air base have the same entrance.
Mian Iftikhar Hussain, information minister of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, said after the attackers fired the rockets they tried but failed to drive an explosives-laden vehicle into the airport. The vehicle struck the airport's outer wall, blew up and killed five militants.
Other than the attackers, four civilians were also killed, Shahid said. He said 35 people were injured as well. Two of the rockets landed inside the airport and the other struck outside the facility.
The Pakistani Taliban claimed responsibility of the attack. Taliban official Ehsanullah Ehsan said their target was in fact the air base.
"We have planned more attacks on Pakistani forces and its installation as it works to please the USA," Ehsan said.
Peshawar is near Pakistan's volatile tribal region. Militants have a strong presence in that region, which borders Afghanistan.

ForumsThird-Party ApplicationsToodledo to iPhone only synchs in one direction?
Toodledo to iPhone only synchs in one direction?
I recently installed toodledo on my iphone and the third party app from chromatic dragon to allow synching between outlook tasks and toodledo. If I put a new task in outlook it works great and the new task will show up in toodledo on my iphone after synching. Unfortuntely, it is not bidirectional, and when I enter a task on my iphone (using toodledo app), it synchs with the on-line version of toodledo, but never makes it into outlook. I seem to have all the right boxes checked, but maybe I am missuing something. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
I know people have used that setup (Outlook <-> TD <-> iPhone) before successfully, so I'm not sure why it isn't working for you, but there have been a few reports of this lately, so maybe it is related to the most recent update of the sync tool. You could try sending the developer a sync log, but I am not sure it would tell him anything if the tasks aren't showing up in Outlook at all.
I'll try contacting developer of the synch tool. Thanks
Anders - where do I get the synch log from?
See the highlighted post here: http://www.toodledo.com/forums/8/2319/-11701/read.html
FWIW, I do exactly this and it works just fine . . . .
OK, I was wrong -- I thought I had done this before, but I didn't! It does not work.
Tasks created in Outlook sync OK to Toodledo and iPhone.
Tasks created in Toodledo sync OK to iPhone and Outlook.
Tasks created in iPhone sync OK to Toodledo but do NOT sync to Outlook.
I think the problem is that the software is looking for where a task was created in determining whether to sync the task. For example, a task created in Toodledo will be tagged that it has been created in Toodledo, and the software will sync it to Outlook. Likewise, a task created in Outlook will be tagged that it has been created in Outlook, and the software will sync it to Toodledo.
The problem is that for tasks created on the iPhone, the tasks will be tagged with created on iPhone, and the software doesn't look for those kinds of tasks . . . .
I'm not sure that that is it because I know that this has worked for many people before (I suppose if you are using a third party iPhone app that might be a problem because it will be marked added via API, which is the same as the sync tool). I think this must be something new. I would definitely try to get trace logs to the sync tool's developer, and also tell him which tasks are not being synced. Probably try to provide as much info as you can since I am pretty sure he doesn't use an iPhone so this might be very difficult to diagnose.
Edit: I just checked the API documentation, and it doesn't look like any of that "added via" comes through in any of the XML that the sync tool would receive, so I definitely don't think that is it.
Edit 2: Just a though, a hunch really, but I wonder if this is somehow related to the fairly recent autosync in the Toodledo iPhone app. It would be interesting to know if this still happens when you turn off autosync, add a task on the iPhone, and do a manual sync with the button in the iPhone app.
This message was edited Sep 26, 2009.
Ahhh, that's it! If you *manually* sync in the iPhone app, it shows up in both the web site, and then ultimately to Outlook. But if you do not manually sync in the iPhone app (i.e., allow the autosync to work its magic), then no dice -- it shows up in the web site, but not in Outlook!
So, is the problem here with the Outlook sync app, or with the iPhone app, or ???
I'm honestly not sure. Hopefully keef might have some idea of what is happening, but since I don't believe he uses an iPhone that might not be the case.
Toodledo Founder
I don't think it is possible for a task synced manually to be treated any differently from a task synced using autosync. They are both sent to the website in the exact same way, the only difference is if it is done immediately, or a little later. The fact that the task shows up on Toodledo.com means that it is syncing correctly.
I can't explain why the Outlook tool isn't syncing it from Toodledo, you'll have to ask the developer.

Another top club join race to sign Chelsea outcast in January
Another suitor has emerged as a prime contender to snatch David Luiz on loan or a permanent move in January.
The Brazilian international defender lost his place in Conte's squad in October after the 3-0 loss against Italian Serie A giants AS Roma, and has since played from the start just once, in a rotated squad against Qarabag.
The center-half is currently nursing a knee problem, which has sidelined him since then, but there's a lot of rumour that the reasons the defender is missing out are down to a bust-up with Italian tactician Conte as much as the knee problem.
Spanish la Liga giants Real Madrid were the last side to supposedly be keen on in signing him, but now Italian Serie A Champions Juventus have joined the race, as per reports in the Daily Mail.
It does look unlikely a winter transfer move would materialize, and considering the defender is cup-tied in the UEFA Champions League it would make no sense for the two European heavyweights either. However, next summer, if things have not changed, a transfer seems very likely.
The Chelsea boss has insisted there is no sort of rift between the duo and said injury problems was behind his recent absence.
However, Conte would seemingly favour playing with Andreas Christensen, 21, instead.

Chelsea Player Dismisses Exit Rumours
Chelsea left-back Marcos Alonso has dismissed the transfer rumours linking him with a move from the West London club this summer.
The Spanish defender addressed those transfer rumours in a chat with reporters in Japan as he said that there are still four years left on his current deal.

On the appointment of Frank Lampard as the new Chelsea manager, Marcos Alonso said that the new development gives the club a fresh start and not only him after the end of Maurizio Sarri's managerial reign at the club.
Sarri has left Chelsea for the Juventus job and club legend Lampard is the new man in charge of the playing squad at Stamford Bridge.
Marcos Alonso joined Chelsea from Italian Serie A club Fiorentina in the summer of 2016 and he went on to play a big role for the Blues as they won the 2016/17 Premier League.
He won the FA Cup title in his second season before losing his spot in the Chelsea XI to Emerson Palmieri towards the end of last season.
Young Chelsea Winger Set To Sign New Contract
Young Chelsea winger Callum Hudson-Odoi is reportedly set to sign a new contract at the club to effectively rule out a move away from the club this summer.
England international Hudson-Odoi has previously been linked with clubs like German Bundesliga giants Bayern Munich, reigning European champions Liverpool and German side Borussia Dortmund.
Bayern Munich has as many as five bids turned down for the player at the start of this years.
He has one year left on his current deal at Stamford Bridge and there's an agreement in place for him to extend his contract according to the Daily Mail.

Callum Hudson-Odoi came through the Chelsea Academy before he broke into the first team during the preseason last summer.
The young English winger figured heavily during preparations for last season under the guidance of manager Maurizio Sarri.
He didn't get a regular spot in the Chelsea team outside of the Europa League until the second half of the season.
His growth in the Chelsea team was curtailed as a result of the injury he sustained during a Premier League clash with Brighton and Hove Albion.
He's expected to be out of action till September as a result of the Achilles injury sustained in the aforementioned league clash.
Spurs Want Chelsea Target Elseid Hysaj As Trippier Replacement
Champions League finalists Tottenham Hotspur are eyeing a move for Napoli defender Elseid Hysaj this summer.
According to Italian journalist Gianluca Di Marzio, Spurs want to sign the Albanian international right-back during this summer's transfer window.
It was revealed that Hysaj is on a two-man shortlist of transfer targets as Tottenham Hotspur try to sign a replacement for Kieran Trippier who left the club this summer.
Chelsea target Hysaj is on the right-back shortlist alongside AS Roma defender Alessandro Florenzi.
Spurs are in the market for a new right-back after Kieran Trippier joined Spanish La Liga giants Atletico Madrid earlier on Thursday.

The England international star was unveiled as an Atletico Madrid player alongside Spanish centre back Mario Hermoso.
The 28-year-old was the first choice right-back at Spurs until this summer.
He was part of the Tottenham Hotspur team that lost the Champions League last month.
Kieran Trippier and Spurs were beaten 2-0 by Liverpool courtesy goals from Mohamed Salah (penalty) and second half substitute Divock Origi.
The former Burnley defender will replace veteran right-back Juanfran at Atletico Madrid after the Spaniard left the club at the end of his contract last month.
Juanfran left the Spanish outfit alongside former club skipper Diego Godin.
Newcastle Replace Ex-Chelsea Manager With Steve Bruce
Premier League club Newcastle United have appointed Steve Bruce as their new manager ahead of the new season scheduled to start in the next three weeks.
Steve Bruce has bagged the Newcastle United job shortly after he resigned from his post as the manager of English Championship club Sheffield Wednesday.
His new appointment was confirmed by Newcastle United earlier on Wednesday.
The former Manchester United defender has put pen to paper on a three-year contract until the end of the 2021/22 season.
Newcastle United had been without a manager since former Chelsea manager Rafael Benitez left the club at the end of last month.

- West Ham Have Made A Bid To Sign Gonzalo Higuain
Benitez left his job as the Newcastle United manager at the end of his contract with the Magpies.
He has since joined Chinese Super League (CSL) outfit Dalian Yifang as their manager.
The Spaniard has been offered a contract worth £12m on a yearly basis in his new job.
Rafael Benitez was briefly the Chelsea manager during the second half of the 2011/12 season.
He helped Chelsea to the Europa League title at the end of that season.
Newcastle United was his third club in the Premier League after the duo of Chelsea and reigning European champions Liverpool.
PSG Turn Down Swap Deal For Chelsea Target
French Ligue 1 champions Paris Saint Germain (PSG) have turned down a swap deal for star player Neymar according to the latest reports from the Spanish media.
Chelsea target Neymar wants to return to Barcelona this summer after two years in Paris.
According to the specific report from Spanish publication AS, PSG are adamant that Neymar won't leave the club this summer for anything less than the €222m (£200m).
Barcelona offered €40m plus the attacking duo of Philippe Coutinho and Ousmane Dembele and it was rejected by PSG immediately.
Coutinho and Dembele have not been able to light up the Nou Camp since their respective big money transfers to Barcelona.

- Andreas Pereira Signs New Long Term Contract At Man United
- Lyon striker may not fulfill Liverpool's dream move for THIS reason
Philippe Coutinho signed for Barcelona from Premier League club Liverpool at the start of last year, while Ousmane Dembele joined the Catalans from German Bundesliga giants Borussia Dortmund.
Barcelona are willing to let the two players join PSG in exchange for Neymar who has publicly admitted that he should not have left the Nou Camp in 2017.
He became the most expensive player in world football after PSG activated the €222m release clause in his then contract at Barcelona.
Since his move to Paris, Neymar has scored 51 goals for his French club.
Bournemouth Ready To Let Chelsea Target Leave For Free
Premier League club Bournemouth have decided to let winger Ryan Fraser leave the club on a free transfer when his contract expires next summer.
This is according to the publication from the Daily Express which revealed that Bournemouth is not desperate to sell Ryan Fraser this summer despite the numerous interest in him.
Scottish international Fraser has been linked with a lot of Premier League clubs this summer.
West London giants Chelsea, Tottenham Hotspur, Arsenal, London and Manchester United have all been linked with the petite winger.

- Steven Gerrard Confirms Interest In Ryan Kent
- Why Manchester United Must Keep Pogba
Ryan Fraser has one year left on his current deal with Bournemouth at the moment and the Cherries could lose his services for free next summer if he does not sign a new deal.
The 25-year-old has been a very good player for Bournemouth since joining the club from Scottish Premiership giants Aberdeen.
Ryan Fraser scored seven goals in the Premier League last season in addition to the provision of 14 assists for his teammates.
He was the second highest assist provider during the 2018/19 season with 14 assists behind Eden Hazard who had 15 assists for Chelsea last season.
Eden Hazard has since left Chelsea for Real Madrid this summer in a deal reported to be around €100m.
New Chelsea Signing Requests One Favour From Frank Lampard
Chelsea midfielder Mateo Kovacic has made a request to new club manager Frank Lampard as he tries to take his game to the next level.
In his latest interview as monitored by popular media outlet Metro, Mateo Kovacic asked new Chelsea manager Frank Lampard to guide him on how to score goals.
Frank Lampard was a goalscoring machine during his time as a Chelsea player after he scored 211 goals in 13 years.
The 41-year-old is still the all-time leading goalscorer at the club whom he joined from fellow London club West Ham United in 2001.
- Bundesliga Giants Overtake Man City In €50m Race To Sign Chelsea Target

- Man Utd Want Two Major Transfers
Frank Lampard left Chelsea at the end of his contract in 2014 and he went on to play for Premier League champions Manchester City and Major League Soccer (MLS) club New York City FC before he announced his retirement.
Mateo Kovacic was on loan at Chelsea for the whole of last season before the Blues made his move permanent in a €50m deal.
The Croatian World Cup star didn't find the back of the net throughout the season including 30 Premier League appearances.
He had just two assists to
Bayern Munich
Callum Hudson-Odoi Promised Important Chelsea Role
Newly appointed Chelsea manager Frank Lampard has urged young winger Callum Hudson-Odoi to stay and be a part of his plans at Chelsea.
According to the Chelsea legend, Callum Hudson-Odoi can be central to his plans at the club.
Frank Lampard spoke about the England international player during the preseason tour of Dublin.
The former Chelsea midfielder was speaking ahead of the friendly with St. Patrick Athletic.
He said that it's too early to make promises but his desire is for Callum Hudson-Odoi to be an important player for his Chelsea team.
Callum Hudson-Odoi came through the ranks at Chelsea before making his debut for the Blues last year.
- David Luiz reveals Chelsea's choice for Eden Hazard
- When Man Utd Will Hold Talks With Bruno Fernandes Revealed
- John Terry Backs Frank Lampard For Managerial Job
The 18-year-old has impressed in the Chelsea team since he appeared in his first game.
Immediate past Chelsea manager Maurizio Sarri didn't play him like he would have liked in the last campaign and that seems to have cast doubt in his mind.
Hudson-Odoi was seriously linked with German Bundesliga giants Bayern Munich in January but the Blues were able to repel several bids from the Bavarian giants for him.
The player also submitted a transfer request which was turned down immediately.
Callum Hudson-Odoi is ready to sign a new contract but he wants more responsibilities in the team.
He has one year left on his current deal at Stamford Bridge.

An afternoon in Italy ... on Waiheke Island!
A Waihekean enjoys a taste of Italy on a weekend afternoon.
1 / 7
I've just spent the afternoon in Italy – only a ten minute drive from western Waiheke. Eight of us, all women, went for a long luncheon at Poderi Crisci. We had been recommended to choose the Chef's menu. This meant that they served five courses over several hours and there were no difficult decisions.
Generally I'm a bit suspect about set menus because in the past I have experienced mass produced, generic food, but I needn't have worried in this case. It was all divine. The first course was set out and we were so excited that we dove straight into it and forgot to take photos for this review. First up was marinated and poached fish with all manner of side dishes including sophisticated whipped mozzarella, vegetables done so exotically that one could not replicate it at home, breads, olives and high quality olive oil. Now with regards to fish, there is no nice way to say it. Waihekeans are fussy about our fish as most of us are lucky enough to have access to genuinely freshly caught fish on a regular basis. I'm not showing off – it's just the way it is. It's rare for us to order fish in a restaurant. It's stressful, a risk that we won't be happy and end up either quietly disgruntled or being a whinger and moaner. But this fish really was delectable, moreish and there wasn't any left when they cleared the platters from the first course. The herbs used in the kitchen are from the restaurants own herb garden which diners are encouraged to walk through and enjoy between courses.
The service could not be faulted. Our waitress spoke with a glorious Italian accent. Each dish was described in great detail as it was presented and she confidently answered our many questions about the food. Poderi Crisci's own wines are a very refreshing elixir on a sunny day. We were seated outdoors under a huge umbrella and marvelled at the gorgeous, relaxing view that was dominated by the green and lush surroundings.
It's obvious that Poderi Crisci take great pride in everything they do from the landscaping to the service to the quality of the food. Let me ramble on some more about the food. Melt in the mouth lamb wrapped in prosciutto, salad with the most glorious feta that we had a big debate about what sort it was as it was creamy like it could be spread with a knife, ravioli made from scratch that was perfectly al dente. Little touches that stand out too, such as a sprig of rosemary garnishing the plate that you could tell was attached to the actual plant an hour beforehand.
Looking back, our fresh water was topped up so regularly that somehow it happened invisibly. The waitress took the time to speak to us individually to make sure we were happy. One of our party was secretly hoping the dessert was tiramasu and to her delight it was. We all very much enjoyed it apart from one person who simply isn't into desserts. We happily helped her out by devouring hers as well! The waitress became concerned and asked her if she wanted a different dessert. She didn't, but that's an example of offering service above and beyond. It was a set menu after all.
The weather was fabulous and there were a lot of diners there today. We saw a couple of famous household names enjoying time out with their friends. Please don't ask me who they were. My lips are sealed. What happens in Italy, stays in Italy.

Patuxent Wildlife Art Show screens movies with a message
For 23 years, the Friends of the Patuxent have raised funds for their beloved natural refuge by holding a weekend-long art show and sale. For 20 years, The Environmental Film Festival has raised awareness for the decline of the planet by screening green-themed films in the D.C. area. Three years ago the groups joined forces.
"We have a giant auditorium here at the visitor's center," says Wildlife Art Show publicity chair Lisa Bierer-Garrett. "I thought it would be great if we could be a venue for the film festival, since we have the same mission."
This year, the refuge is taking wing to raise awareness for endangered birds. Leading the line-up at 9:30am is The History of Patuxent: America's Conservation Research Story.
Next, showing at 10:30am and 2:45pm, comes Anna, Emma and the Condor, a film about a family that cares for California condors in hopes of saving the species from extinction. This documentary has its own Patuxent connections: Some of the giant birds of prey were raised on the grounds in a program to reintroduce the species to the wild. After the screening, a bird of prey appears at a wildlife talk.
The final film, Endangered Hawaii, showing at 12:30pm and 2pm, is about the extinction of 71 of the 113 native Hawaiian bird species and what is being done to preserve the remaining avians. The movie has close ties to the refuge, as Patuxent researchers are working on the Hawaiian problem. After the film, speak with them in an open Q&A.
The screenings have brought a new crowd, including nearby District residents, to the annual art show, which itself draws some 1,000 viewers each day. Come early as the free film typically draw audiences 600 strong.

Today everybody is wearing the technology (ie, mobile phones and other portable digital gadgets) in their hands. They are the tools that can give you real-time information about anything, but in single click or traveling or anything else. And if you plan to go for a vacation or business trip, there are several travel apps to help you. If anyone is installed on your smart device, it may be useful if you are venturing or in the middle of the tour.
best cheap flights app
They support you in everything, just like you a ticket online, maintain the hotel room and a dining table, find your presence, display your e-tickets, etc. Now most of travel apps offer travelers card also so that the visitor the one country to visit the other country without a lot of hard cash and enjoy the moments without the exchange of the currency in the relevant currency of the place one intends to go.
Follow the third parties and third party travel websites on Twitter (social media) and sign up for their mailing list. One of the great features of social media is that airlines can use this to advertise special travel promotions through certain social media broadcasts. Sometimes an airline offers a special promotional code via their Twitter or Facebook page that is not advertised on other websites. West Jet offers Blue Tag Thursdays, a special promotion only offered on Thursday evening (unless they have a special version during this time).
You can find this on their website or watch their Twitter or Facebook page. When signing third party or airline mailing lists, they sometimes send private offers to their subscribers who give you secret access to their sales.
Of the wide spectrum of available cryptocurrencies and digital tokens, one of those that moved the most over the last 24 hours was the Stellar Lumen (XLM). For those reading that are already familiar with this space, there is a good chance that the Lumen will already be on-radar.

For anybody just getting started in cryptocurrency trading, however, let's kick things off with a quick introduction to the token and the company behind it.
Stellar is the name of the company and it built and now maintains a public ledger blockchain type network that functions in much the same way as does that of bitcoin. What we mean by this is that it is primarily designed as a bridge mechanism for value transfer. Don't get this confused with something like Ethereum, which is primarily designed as a platform on top of which applications can be built using smart contracts.

Websites that compare the prices of multiple hotels seem to provide great deals. In truth, however, the only thing these sites really
save you is time. There is something to be said for making the process of finding the best price more convenient, but you can save much
more by taking the time to do your own comparison and booking directly with your choice accommodations.
It is incredibly easy to log on to a site and quickly see how much different lodgings cost, and it is not a bad place to start when
looking for the best deal either. After you narrow your search down though, you should call to book directly instead of going through
the website. There are a couple of reasons why this will often get you a lower price.
First, you are saving the hotel money. That's right. By going through them directly instead of a broker website, they do not have to pay
the site a commission for the sale. As a result, they may be willing to pass some of those savings on to you. It really is win-win.
Second, this allows you to negotiate on price. Even if you are satisfied with the quote online, it never hurts to ask for a better
discount. Remember, the answer is always "no" unless you ask! Hotels often reserve their best rooms or lowest prices from these websites
in order to maintain price parity. All you have to do to get around that though is ask.

Did you ever use the Internet in late 1990s? If so, you would have definitely used 'AltaVista' – the most important search engine of the
time. Today, the search engine is no longer there. Many of us do not know much about this defunct search engine.
It is a common experience that many web-based products come and become obsolete and no longer useful. It is important to point out that
a similar fate engulfed AltaVista, which was the Google of its time according to industry experts. It is worthwhile to discuss the story
of this search engine of the past.
A pioneer
Introduced in 1995, AltaVista was the first search engine to use a fast, multi-threaded crawler that could index many web pages that
were believed to exist at the time. It was able to index 20 million pages, when indexing 2 million pages was a big thing. It gave tough
competition to all the existing search engines like Excite, Lycos, Infoseek, etc. by finding pages that others didn't. It was an instant
hit. Started with 3,00,000 clicks on the first day its traffic went to 80 million clicks in just two years.
On first glance, you might not think that Vimeo would be connected with the amount of money that Internet marketers see flowing in their
direction. As fate would have it, however, there is a connection between the popular Internet video site and you the Internet marketer.
Major websites like Vimeo can tell savvy observers a great deal about how the digital trade winds are blowing. Vimeo, of course, is all
about video content and this means that when a video site the size of Vimeo switches from Adobe's Flash, well, people take notice.

Apple recently decided that it would not make its wildly popular iPads and iPhone compatible with Flash. This was done due to the fact
that Apple believed that Flash was slowing down computer performance and hindering user experience.
Vimeo has decided that they would go ahead and integrate html5 into their website. Html5 is believed by many experts (including those at
Apple) to be the new replacement for Flash
Is affiliate marketing any good? In the end, only your desire, willpower and determination will provide the answer. The World Wide Web,
the "River of Gold" some call it runs fast and deep. It does not care whether you draw from it with a thimble or a bucket. I suggest you
bring a tanker truck. The river doesn't care.
How good can you stand it?
The 6 non-technical things you will need to skyrocket to success in affiliate marketing:
PPC Affiliate Programs
1. Knowledge: First and foremost, you have to know how business on the internet is done. For example, when you do a search on the
internet, you end up with a list of the top 10 results. These are considerred by the search engine to be the most relevant to your
search query. These sites have the best chance of getting your click as they are one of the top 10. They do get the lion's share of the
traffic. Question: how much did it cost them to be listed in the top 10? Thousands of dollars, maybe? Answer: It is free once you know
what you are doing. You can't buy your way into the top 10. Is affiliate maketing any good? Yes, it is cheap too!
2. An open mind: Try to bear in mind as you tackle the world wide web that this is a totally different way of doing business. First of
all, there is no entry fee so everyone and her dog is having a go at it. Almost all of them will fail because they lack knowledge. They
also don't learn this new way of doing business. Affiliate marketing has never existed before. Never before could you build a huge
busines from your kitchen table using only your wits and other people's products. Is affiliate marketing any good? You bet it is!
The Flea Life Cycle
Adult cat and dog fleas prefer to feed on pets rather than people. The pets are closer to the ground and have warmer body temperatures
than humans. Second choice would be children — especially infants and toddlers. Female fleas will probe and bite and average of seven
times in a "grouping" before locating a blood vessel in the skin. The saliva they leave with each bite can cause a localized allergic
reaction (flea allergy dermatitis or FAD as we call it in the veterinary world.) After feeding on large amounts of blood, the female
flea deposits her eggs and droppings (flea dirt) which consists mostly of undigested blood. Both the eggs (which are white and about the
size of a grain of salt) and the droppings (which are black and appear like ground pepper, often in the shape of a comma) drop off the
animal's coat and spread all over the environment.
advantage flea
Here's a quick home-test to see if your pet has fleas: Lay out a white piece of butcher paper and groom your pet for a few minutes as
they stand on the paper. Do you see any black, comma-looking things against the white paper? If so, put a drop of water on it. If it's
flea dirt, the water will turn pink.
Flea eggs remain in the environment for variable amounts of time and are not destroyed by extremes in temperature or by pesticides. When
proper conditions exist, the eggs hatch and release tiny white larvae. These larvae are not able to get around and must rely on the
undigested blood left in the droppings for their food source. Larvae are very susceptible to extremes in environment, pesticides, and
insect growth regulators.

symbol of peace and love throughout the ages. From the "Flower Power"

movement of the 1960's, when activist and young pacifist Jane Rose Kasmir was photographed planting a flower on the bayonets of guards
at the Pentagon during a protest against the Vietnam War on October 21, 1967. A Moment in time that would go on in American culture and
heritage to reflect a moment of peace in a time of war, symbolizing a new type of passive resistance, coined by Ginsberg's 1965 essay
titled How to Make a March/Spectacle. During the late 1800's a woman rejecting a suitor might send him yellow roses. During world war
one a man leaving for a battle overseas might give his girlfriend forget-me-nots. Most people remember that red roses mean "I love you,"
but floriography itself has been largely forgotten, a Victorian practice where particular types of flowers meant different things.
In some cases flowers may have a more grim representation such as calla lilies at a funeral. Recently evidence of flowers dating back to
the prehistoric period have been discovered through 'Flower Fossils'. Archaeologists uncovered skeletons of a man, two women and an
infant buried together in soil containing pollen of flowers in a cave in Iraq. This association of flowers with the cave dwelling
Neanderthals of the Pleistocene epoch is indicative of the role of flowers in burial rituals. Analysis of the sediment pollen
concentrated in batches, implied that possible bunches of flowers had been placed on the grave. Closer examination of the flower pollen
enabled scientists to identify many flowers that were present, all of which had some therapeutic properties.
What is a wallet?
It is a way to store your bitcoins. Specifically, it is software that has been designed to store bitcoin.

and can also be made to store bitcoins on things like thumb drives. If you are concerned about being hacked, then that is a good option.

deposit box.
*The Winklevoss twins are the ones who originally had the idea for a social networking site that became Facebook. They hired Mark
Zuckerberg who took their idea as his own and became immensely rich.

I started 25 years ago analyzing lotto histories. Today, I am more convinced than ever that any lotto player can improve his chances of
winning the lotto by studying lotto number patterns. Not only do lotto number patterns and trends exist, they exist in all lotteries.
They are not hidden. Anyone can use them to their advantage. In fact, patterns and trends exist in all games of chance. Applying them is
called playing the odds and professional gamblers do that well.
Previously, I've shown how serious lotto players create a reduced play list by removing weak or underperforming numbers from play. See
my article 'How Do Serious Lottery Players Play the Lottery?
Super Lotto By doing this the player can significantly improve their chances of winning
the lotto.
Just making such a statement causes some critics and skeptics to become enraged and accuse me of just about everything short of raping
the queen. Paraphrasing Shakespeare, "The skeptic doth protest too much, methinks."
The basic thread of their discontent goes something like this: Just because a lotto number had a dry spell doesn't mean that dry spell
will continue. After all, it's a random game.
The Bard said it best. It appears that the critic is 'hoist with his own petar'. Today's lottery equivalents of Rosencrantz and
Guildenstern have misapplied a long-term analysis to a short-term game.
