Businesses and Council Officials from Ceredigion and Powys travelled through the winter weather on Thursday to attend an event to promote the Mid Wales Growth deal in the National Assembly.
The event was jointly sponsored by Ceredigion AM Elin Jones, alongside Montgomeryshire's AM, Russell George, and Kirsty Williams AM from Brecon and Radnorshire.
The event brought together business and technology sectors of Mid Wales together with local Politicians and Government Ministers to discuss the deal and to raise awareness for businesses looking to start or locate in Ceredigion.
Elin Jones AM, said:
"This event has brought together so many different sectors that are based in Ceredigion and Powys, and has highlighted the importance of working across county lines.
"It's obvious that Mid Wales is fruitful ground for anyone looking to start a business, or to relocate here. Work in our Universities are advancing in many technological sectors, and local produce is sold around the world.
"There are many lessons we can learn from each other, and opportunities for Ceredigion and Powys to work together in order to share prosperity and opportunities throughout our region.
"Our cross-party meeting with the Minister, Ken Skates, emphasised this."
Leader of Ceredigion Council, Cllr Ellen ap Gwynn, who gave evidence to a scrutiny committee regarding the Mid Wales Growth Deal in the National Assembly for Wales in the morning, said:
"The way things are sounding with Brexit, who knows what will happen between now and the end of March.
"We have got to try and take every opportunity we can to support businesses and the development of businesses in mid Wales. Otherwise there is not much future apart from as a playground.
"The Mid Wales Growth deal gives us a pot of money with which we can invest in the future. And hopefully invest to the benefit of the private sector."
Plaid Cymru Mid and West AM Helen Mary Jones said:
"As someone who represents all of the mid Wales region I was pleased to meet with representatives from the area. We face a number of challenges in rural Wales including depopulation, a weak economy with many people in part-time employment and on low wages.
"One of the essential sectors for our rural communities is agriculture, but the sector has faced immense pressure in recent years, which will be further compounded post Brexit.
"As someone raised in Powys throughout my teenage years, I often feel the county's potential has been held back. I know many people are concerned that, with all the talk of City Deals, Powys and Ceredigion are forgotten.
"It was pleasing, then, to see firms and public sector organisations, like Aberystwyth University, being able to take part in a showcase at the Senedd building in our National Parliament to promote the best of the region."
Plaid Cymru's Leader on Powys Council Councillor Elwyn Vaughan added:
"I welcome the Growing Mid Wales Trade exhibition in association with Powys and Ceredigion County Councils in the Senedd. I look forward to working together to make the ideas expressed realised."

Causes of Water Retention in Feet
Doctors refer to the accumulation of fluid in the body tissues and cavities as water retention. When excess water accumulates in the feet, the feet swell and cause discomfort. Water retention in the feet occurs as a complication of several medical conditions. If you experience water retention that does not go away, consult a doctor to determine the cause.
Pulmonary Hypertension
The lungs contain veins and arteries that carry blood to and away from the heart, respectively. In pulmonary venous hypertension, the veins dilate and cause increased pressure. This usually occurs as the result of a problem with the left heart, according to David S. Feigin, M.D. of Johns Hopkins University. This condition causes excess fluid to build up in the blood vessels, which leads to water retention in the feet, ankles and legs.
Heart muscle disease, referred to as cardiomyopathy, weakens the heart and makes it difficult for the organ to pump blood. Blood pools in the veins as they carry it to the heart for distribution to other body tissues. This results in fluid accumulation in the feet and lower extremities.
Kidney Failure
The kidneys regulate the amount of sodium and fluid in the body. When they work properly, the kidneys respond to excess fluid by eliminating it in the urine. In cases of acute or chronic kidney failure, the kidneys do not maintain normal fluid levels. This results in water retention by the feet, legs, eyelids, ankles and hands. The American Heart Association recommends eating less than 1,500 mg of sodium per day to reduce the risk of diseases associated with sodium consumption.
Chronic Kidney Disease
The kidneys contain filtration units known as nephrons, which reabsorb sodium and water for use by the body. Chronic kidney disease makes it difficult for the kidneys to filter wastes properly. This leads to the leakage of protein in the urine and the accumulation of excess fluid in the body. The excess fluid pools in the legs, feet, hands, face and ankles, resulting in swelling and discomfort.
Congestive Heart Failure
Congestive heart failure is the inability of the heart to pump blood efficiently. Causes of this condition include high blood pressure and narrowing of the arteries in the heart. Congestive heart failure causes fluid to pool in the feet, ankles and legs.
Pregnant women often experience swelling of the feet. This occurs due to the increased fluid volume of the body during pregnancy. A serious condition known as preeclampsia may also cause swollen feet during pregnancy. The National Institute of Child Health and Human Development defines preeclampsia as an abnormal elevation of blood pressure after a woman's 20th week of pregnancy.

1 Samuel 8:1 When Samuel was nowe become olde, he made his sonnes Iudges ouer Israel. 1 Samuel 8:2 (And the name of his eldest sonne was Ioel, and the name of the second Abiah) euen Iudges in Beer-sheba. 1 Samuel 8:3 And his sonnes walked not in his wayes, but turned aside after lucre, and tooke rewards, and peruerted the iudgement. 1 Samuel 8:4 Wherefore all the Elders of Israel gathered them together, and came to Samuel vnto Ramah, 1 Samuel 8:5 And said vnto him, Beholde, thou art olde, and thy sonnes walke not in thy wayes: make vs nowe a King to iudge vs like all nations.
1 Samuel 8:6 But the thing displeased Samuel, when they said, Giue vs a King to iudge vs: and Samuel prayed vnto the Lord. 1 Samuel 8:7 And the Lord said vnto Samuel, Heare the voyce of the people in all that they shall say vnto thee: for they haue not cast thee away, but they haue cast me away, that I should not reigne ouer the. 1 Samuel 8:8 As they haue euer done since I brought them out of Egypt euen vnto this day, (and haue forsaken me, and serued other gods) euen so doe they vnto thee. 1 Samuel 8:9 Nowe therefore hearken vnto their voyce: howbeit yet testifie vnto them, and shewe them the maner of ye King that shall reigne ouer them.
1 Samuel 8:10 So Samuel told all the wordes of the Lord vnto the people that asked a King of him. 1 Samuel 8:11 And he saide, This shall be the maner of the King that shall reigne ouer you: he will take your sonnes, and appoint them to his charets, and to be his horsemen, and some shall runne before his charet. 1 Samuel 8:12 Also he will make them his captaines ouer thousands, and captaines ouer fifties, and to eare his ground, and to reape his haruest, and to make instruments of warre, and the thinges that serue for his charets. 1 Samuel 8:13 He will also take your daughters and make them apoticaries, and cookes, and bakers. 1 Samuel 8:14 And he will take your fieldes, & your vineyardes, and your best Oliue trees, and giue them to his seruants. 1 Samuel 8:15 And he will take the tenth of your seede, and of your vineyards, & giue it to his Eunuches, and to his seruants. 1 Samuel 8:16 And he will take your men seruants, and your maide seruants, and the chiefe of your yong men, and your asses, and put them to his worke. 1 Samuel 8:17 He will take the tenth of your sheepe, and ye shall be his seruants. 1 Samuel 8:18 And ye shall crie out at that day, because of your King, whom ye haue chosen you, and the Lord will not heare you at that day.
1 Samuel 8:19 But the people would not heare the voyce of Samuel, but did say, Nay, but there shall be a King ouer vs. 1 Samuel 8:20 And we also will be like all other nations, and our King shall iudge vs, and goe out before vs, and fight our battels. 1 Samuel 8:21 Therefore when Samuel heard all ye wordes of ye people, he rehearsed the in ye eares of ye Lord. 1 Samuel 8:22 And the Lord saide to Samuel, Hearken vnto their voyce, and make them a King; Samuel said vnto the men of Israel, Goe euery man vnto his citie.

In 1984 Apple played up on the famous book entitled, 1984, showing people breaking with conformity by thinking for themselves with a Macintosh. Airing during the Super Bowl, the ad is a classic that had no idea how big Apple would become less than twenty years later, and how Big Brother might be alive and well.

Sometimes you just HAVE to have BBQ. Well, today was definitely one of those days. I had an absolute hankerin' for some beef brisket so I was off to my favorite BBQ place (btw, I refrain from posting the names of my favorite places to eat so that they don't get too busy for me to eat there). This place is spendy for BBQ at about $15 for a half pound of brisket, corn bread, and a couple sides. It costs another $2 for the delicious can of Coke Zero (gotta make room for all the brisket!).
Anyways, this totally hit the spot and got rid of my hankerin'. Unfortunately, it also made me vegetable for most of the rest of the day as I fell into a food coma.

Lynn Cassiers is a Brussels based singer in the European new jazz and improv scene. In Belgium she has worked with contemporary jazz ensembles such as Octurn, The Brussels Jazz Orchestra, Mäâk. As singer/soundscaper she's part of bands like Tape Cuts Tape (Trouvé/Cassiers/Thielemans), Lilly Joel(w Jozef Dumoulin), Oba Loba, Alexandra Grimal's 'Naga', Jozef Dumoulin & Lidlboj,…
Lynn performs solo and as a sideman through Europe and elsewhere. She leads her own projects 'Imaginary Band'(clean feed 2018) and 'YUN'(jazz lab 2019). Recent collaborations include some new duo's: 'Konbini' (Pak Yan Lau), 'Frankly Honest' (Hilde Holsen) and 'On The Edge Of Memories' (Sylvaine Hélary & Anne Palomérés).
Raised in a musical family and despite her early roots as a teenage singer in her brother's cover band, Lynn was introduced to jazz at an early age. She studied Jazz vocals at the Royal Conservatory of The Hague and had her first bands in such musical environment. Though soon enough her curiosity for contemporary music and other art forms drew her to the realm of 'improvised music' and 'sound art'. She integrated a small set of electronics that ever since has grown around her musical needs.
Today, Lynn's work suggests a wide variety of styles including free jazz, pop, rock, noise, film music, folk and ambient. As long as it allows enough freedom for musicians to interact and express their personality through the forms. She likes to stimulate deviation and ambiguity, allowing the music to be vulnerable and at once dynamic. Lynn developed a unique style, manipulating her voice to create abstract sound textures in a band or by herself. Her work has been reviewed by the press in Europe and beyond:
"…One of the most remarkable voices of our Improv Scene…"(Enola magazine, read on: 'press')
"…Cassiers is brilliant. She really couldn't care less about genres and vested expectations: she creates her own sonic universe in which avant-garde pop (think Laurie Anderson), traditional jazz and free improv meet, in a wonderful mixture that avoids all the traps of doing this.."(freeJazzBlog)
Besides singing and live performing, Lynn has made music for theatre, silent movies and 'live projections'. She performed around the world and had the honour to play with artists such as: Marshall Allen, Toshimaru Nakamura, Salia Sanou, Leon Parker, Lyenn, Akira Sakata, Vincent Glowinski a.k.a. bonom, Bruno Chevillon, Marc Ducret, Airelle Besson, Benoît Delbecq, Théo Ceccaldi, Gilbert Nouno, Nelson Veras, Pierre Perchaud, Oriol Roca, David Soler, Zingaro, Norberto Lobo, Joao Lobo, Erik Vermeulen, Manolo Cabras, Niels Van Heertum, Giovanni Di Domenico, Gerda Dendooven HSBG, Liu Heng, Brice Soniano, Daysuke Fuwa, Olifa Hsieh, Sylvain Lemêtre, Michael De Cock,…
Studies: 'de Kunsthumaniora' of Antwerp and The Royal Conservatory of The Hague. Her teachers; Rachel Gould, Kristina Fuchs, Natasha Röth, John Ruocco and Eric Vloeimans. She attended masterclasses with guest teachers like; Jay Clayton, Dave Liebman, Mark Murphy, Ronan Guilfoyle, Billie Hart, Judy Niemack, among others. In 2001 Lynn was a laureate of the Axion-classics competition. In july 2005 she appeared as a semi-finalist on the 'Sure jazz-voice competition' of the Montreux Jazz Festival. Since 2008 she is a teacher vocal jazz at the Lemmens Institute in Leuven, Belgium.

Flaunting fitness at all ages
MEDALS draped Emerald necks and Queensland's muscles bulged to run, lift, and flex to win second place at a national CrossFit competition for those older than 35 years.
Dave Meyers, Peter Darlison, and Jason Lavis and qualified to represent the state at the annual Masters League Games last month, and won the state a silver medal.
Crossfit involves a mix of cardiovascular fitness, weightlifting, and gymnastics. Participants accumulate points as they complete several different workouts.
Competing for the third time since starting his training five years ago, Dave achieved third place in his category and made the world's top one hundred out of 4,600 competitors in his age group.
He said he was initially attracted by the variety the sport provides.
"You're always doing something different, since it's across a range of different sporting fields," Dave said.
"It's always good fun, doing things with like-minded people."
Peter, also qualifying for the Australian team, successfully defended his title of number one in his category.
Jason, having just met the age requirement for the event, placed 7th.
Now in its fifth year, the Masters League Games brought 400 competitors from Australia, New Zealand, and Asia to Melbourne's Lakeside Stadium sports arena.
Participants completed six gruelling workouts in the rain and wind on the weekend of September 21 to be crowned Australia's fittest.
There are two qualifying rounds before the Masters League tournament in Melbourne, which describes itself as a community-focused challenge "for athletes in their prime".
The oldest competitor was said to be 75 years old.
Dave said CrossFit is gaining momentum and isn't only a sport for the young.
"The sport's gained huge popularity worldwide, and it's only getting stronger and stronger," he said.
"It's a very positive and supportive environment, and everyone gets excited to just give it a crack."
"I want to try to get better every year."

Ultimate Secrets To Saltwater Fish
Since April 2000, UNEP-WCMC and MAC have been collaborating with members of trade associations such as AKKII, PTFEA, SAFEA, OFI and OATA to establish GMAD as a freely available source of information on the global aquarium industry. The common objective of GMAD is to gather, integrate, collect, standardize and provide fast and easy access to data on the trade of individual species by placing this information in the public domain, through a web-searchable interface (http://www.unep-wcmc.org/ marine/GMAD).
For their own files, companies keep records of their sales, either on company computer databases or, more commonly, as paper copies of their invoices. Although the way in which companies register their trade records varies, all records show species name, quantity, date and usually origin and/or destination. A number of these companies provided UNEP-WCMC with access to their sales records. These data have been processed, checked and formatted: species names have been verified and electronic data from different electronic systems placed into a single standardized database. As at August 2003, GMAD contained 102,928
Royal angelfish, Pygoplites diacanthus (left) and a nudibranch (right).
Royal angelfish, Pygoplites diacanthus (left) and a nudibranch (right).
records. Data records in GMAD cover 2,393 species (corals, other invertebrates and fish) from 1988 to 2003. In order to avoid confusion, unless otherwise stated, the term invertebrates will be used to refer to all invertebrate species other than corals.
Each record in GMAD is the total number of specimens traded for a unique combination of: species name, country of export, country of import and year. However, for importers' data, a large number of records were submitted by wholesalers without information about country of origin.
GMAD trade data are linked to two external databases:
□ FishBase58 for photographs of fish species, and fish distribution and taxonomy, and
□ the Species Conservation Database59 for information on invertebrate taxonomy, distribution, relevant legislation, conservation status and associated literature and common names.
It is important to note that trade data cannot be pooled because some of the contributing importers trade with some of the contributing exporters. Hence, pooling data would create duplications. In order to avoid such confusion, GMAD was designed to allow for import and export data to be queried separately.
As an example, if interested in the number of clown anemonefish (Amphiprion ocellaris) traded between Indonesia and the United States for the year 1999 one can calculate two numbers. The first, based on importers' data, shows that 4,223 Amphiprion ocellaris were imported into the United States from Indonesia between those years. The second number, based on export data, shows that 5,565 specimens were exported from Indonesia to the United States. As of August 2003, GMAD contains export data from 20 Indonesian companies (though most of the data provided pertains to coral exports), and importers' data from four US wholesalers. There are, of course, other companies in Indonesia and the United States trading in Amphiprion ocellaris that have not contributed their data to GMAD, and therefore these figures are just a quantitative total based on data contributed to GMAD by August 2003.
As a consequence of this, GMAD cannot be used to calculate net volumes of trade in any one species, or between any pair of countries. Calculations of quantities of specimens traded in a particular species will be more or less indicative of the trade in this species depending in part on the proportion of operational wholesale export and import companies contributing data to GMAD. However, it is a very useful tool as an indicator of trends and, for the first time in the case of fish and invertebrates, it allows estimates based on quantitative, rather than qualitative, data to be derived.

As most of you know, I love birds. And I believe most of you do as well. Winter is a great time to view birds! They are easily seen flitting about looking for a meal on the ground or at the feeder. The trees are bare now, so it's a great time to see them there! Grayden and I are back to our walks and saw this menacing red-shouldered hawk in a tree looking for a meal. His meals are usually my birds! Yes, I consider them mine, unless they are at a neighbor's feeder!
The birds love to eat the suet we hang each winter. Grayden covers the suet in cayenne pepper to keep the squirrels from devouring the whole cake in a day. This male downy woodpecker is getting his meal with no problems.

Thank you, worked well on my Kingston SV300 ssd. At first the application segfaulted and then I ran it without SUDO where it popped up even though it didn't detect the drive, second time I ran it with SUDO and it opened up and detected the drive and updated the firmware.

that's based on a Marvell controller

32-bit live usb solved my problem.

same problem with @phda. i found my ssd configuration config but what can i do with that?
vinibali commented on 2018-04-04 16:42
After a segfault, you should restart the application. It might happen, I couldn't figure out what's wrong with the binary. I will upload a video later about a successful upgrade. Try to search for the fw file in the /custom directory according your device's configuration number [2-3][0-9][0-9][0-9][0-9].

For country music fans out there, the name "Montgomery Gentry" may ring a few bells; it may even prompt a few precious memories. Eddie Montgomery and Troy Gentry gave the band its name, with the pair having entertained die-hard fans all over the world since they first joined forces in 1999.
And to say that Montgomery Gentry are successful would be an understatement. In excess of 20 of their singles have hit the Billboard Hot Country Songs chart, while three of their albums have also gone platinum. Not only that, but in 2000 the pair were honored as the Country Music Association's Vocal Duo of the Year; they have been since been nominated for the award on a further nine occasions.

This one is going to be a bit of a departure from what I normally write about, so please, bear with me and enjoy!
I am currently on holidays in Barbados, and having completed the 'in the pool' portion of my SCUBA certification, I needed to get into some open water and complete the rest. What better place and time than where I am right now! I booked the dive the day after arrival at The Dive Shop Ltd, and though I couldn't get in for my Birthday yesterday, was able to get in for today. They seemed a little cagey on the phone, but the reviews on trip advisor were fantastic, so I figured I'd go with it, also, they were just down the beach from a great beach spot for my family. That way they could have some fun while I had even more fun!
I arrived at the shop just before 11:30 and they parked me in front of a DVD, apparently standard practice for tourists. Once the DVD was done I met my Instructor, a very friendly guy named Kane(also mentioned positively in a LOT of the trip advisor reviews). We had a quick chat, checked and got into our gear(carrying the fins) and headed down to the beach. On the way we reviewed which skills we'd be going over, and given that it was just me there to dive, there'd be plenty of time for a fun dive!
Once in and into our fins, we began to snorkel over to the dive site, spotting a sea turtle within the first five minutes! Once we reached the guide line, we descended, reviewed a couple of skills, and then the fun part of the dive began!
Carlisle Bay is full of shipwrecks, there being 6 in total.
I had the opportunity to see 4 of them in our allotted time. They were teeming with life. The beginnings of a young reef could be seen all over these ships, and fish were everywhere! I've snorkeled in Mexico and Hawaii, but I've never seen so many fish gathered in one place before! We were able to swim around and over the wrecks, and able to go into an open area of one of the ships, I believe the Eillon. It was completely mind blowing. As well, there were eels everywhere! From these guys:
To some other eels that Kane assured me via hand signals were 'bitey'.
All told I was under the water for 43 minutes, and managed to get the first of four open water dives completed. I was flattered to be called a 'natural', and while that may have something to do with me working as a lifeguard and swimming instructor for thirteen years, I'd also like to give some credit to the awesome instructors at Platinum Scuba in Lethbridge Alberta. If you're in Southern Alberta and want to learn, go see Blaine and Rachel. They're awesome.
There, my first open water dive was a smashing success, and I can't wait to get in again!

The "World of Internet Business" company wants to introduce the members of the Dash Russian-speaking team to you. And the first of them, who has given us the interview, is Dmitriy Zhludin, a translator from Dash Force. It is very interesting to learn about people who are thirst after knowledge and share it with us. Thanks to Dmitry, we can receive important information in our language. This is a kind of huge reputable work.
- Julin: How and when did you learn about cryptocurrencies?
- Dmitrii: I learned about Bitcoin a couple of years ago after watching by chance a video on youtube. This video provided basic information but that was enough to make me interested in Bitcoin and underlying blockchane technology.
- Julin: Please, tell us about Dash, how you know about it and why it caught your attention
- Dmitrii: Then again thanks to youtube. I bump into the Amanda B. Johnson's channel (Daily Decrypt) so, as I'm good at English, I began to see avidly all her reviews about crypto-currencies. In her latest video on this channel she said she was going to cooperate with Dash network and continue to work on another channel called Dash - Digital Cash. In one of her video's Dash Detailed (The Amanda and Pete' own show on the Dash official channel) Amanda said, she was looking for translators for making subtitles for her video and I decided to write her. As the result in October 2016 I started translation of English subtitles into Russian. I was interested in Dash because it stands out among other projects. Dash is an entire ecosystem with great potential.
- Julin: I know you are a member of the Dash Force Russian-speaking team and translate information into Russian. How did you end up in the team?
- Dmitrii: I came to the Russian community thanks to Amanda and Pete. My collaboration with them ended and Pete gave me the contact of Alex-ru, whom you know well. So I started working as a translator of articles in the Russian team. Then, a little later, I was offered by Mark to translate articles on the www.dashforcenews.com site.
-Julin: Translating articles is rather hard work. Do you really like what you do ? What do you do else?
-Dmitrii: As for today My main activity is translation of articles on cryptocurrency for DFN and other news resources. Also I am a Dash Force News online representative from Russia, I run an account (dashforcenews-ru) in the different social networks. Now I feel as if it's a job worth doing, I am always up to date with what's going on in the Dash sphere.
- Julin: And what did you do before you came to the team? Please, tell us a little about yourself.
-Dmitrii: I am 28, live in Saint Petersburg. I used to work mainly in retail and was always interested in earnings on the Web. I knew English very well, it was my interest, and I would never have thought, that my current activities should be so closely connected with it.
- Julin: The Dash community is very large, in the meantime cohesive and friendly. Could you compare it with any other project?
- Dmitrii: I don't know much about other communities but I absolutely agree that Dash community is cohesive and friendly. I will be sincerely glad if we see some new projects in cryptospace, with developed products, "road-map", strong development team and active community like Dash.
- Julin: Do you invest in Dash, trade at exchanges? Maybe you use cryptocurrency as means of payment only?
- Dmitrii: Definitely I am rather a long-term investor than a daytrader.
- Julin: What do you think, Dash has a great future ahead?
- Dmitrii: Clearly Dash has an interesting future. Its features like Masternode network, PrivateSend and InstantSend functions, decision-making mechanism, DAO implementation, and project self-finance need to be given constant attention at least. And of course, Dash Evolution is the project whose purpose is to make cryptocurrency affordable and plain for anyone. I personally want to see further development of this project and it is just spinning up. We are looking forward to even greater Dash achievements and I am very glad, like all the members of Dash community, to be a part of this huge, promising, and most importantly needed project.

It remains to be seen whether the recent settlement between the nation's five largest banks and State and federal officials on Thursday will help homeowners. On Thursday $26 billion settlement was announced, making it the largest government-industry settlement in more than a decade.
How the Deal Is Supposed to Help Borrowers Avoid Foreclosure
The deal is supposed to help troubled borrowers by reducing the amount they owe on their mortgages, reducing their interest rates and paying restitution to homeowners who suffered mortgage-related abuses.Thankfully, banks will have to make sure borrowers have a single point of contact with a lender, rather than being moved around to different employees with each interaction. The shuffle to different bank employees is a true nightmare for our Law Firm in trying to deal with these banks on loan modifications and settlements.
U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder criticized lenders for their conduct that he said "pushed borrowers into foreclosure" and "fueled the downward spiral of our economy." Once the settlement is approved by the Federal Court, banks would have to deposit money into a trust account, and the government would distribute the funds to qualified homeowners.
Banks have only three years to complete principal writedowns, refinancings and other relief pursuant to the settlement. A big part of the deal is that about $17 billion would go toward foreclosure-prevention measures, such as reducing the mortgage balance for borrowers who owe more than their homes are worth. Credits would be given to banks for different ways in which they write off existing debts for homeowners.
Another positive of the settlement is a provision providing for lowering interest rates for homeowners who are current on their loans. A big complaint is by those who have remained current on their mortgages during this mess; now some relief for them potentially.
Bankruptcy Code Needs Change Allowing First Mortgage Principal to Be Reduced
The five banks now involved in the settlement are Wells Fargo, Bank of America, J.P. Morgan Chase, Ally Financial and Citigroup. To get this real estate market moving and help homeowners, in addition to this settlement an amendment to the Bankruptcy Laws needs to be made allowing homeowners to strip off principal on their first mortgage if their home is below the value of the outstanding balance on the mortgage. Presently, homeowners do not have this ability on a first mortgage securing their residence. This change would incentivize homeowners to try to save their homes instead of walking away. This would also help stabilize the real estate market because not as many foreclosed and vacant properties would be hitting the market. This would also force banks to negotiate with homeowners before they file bankruptcy because if the bank knows its principal balance can be knocked down in a bankruptcy, the bank would be more willing to reduce that mortgage balance outside of bankruptcy.
We will see whether the settlement helps homeowners and hopefully the banks cooperate as per the settlement. I still believe more needs to be done.

Palestinian Poet Sentenced To Death In Saudi Arabia For 'Renouncing' Islam
Historically, only one institution has thrived for so long, appointing themselves the arbiters of the final revelation from God.
However, somewhat suspiciously- all the power they gain from that privileged position is wielded here on earth. And the greatest reward due the followers is, somewhat conveniently, in the afterlife.
I think there is a saying about how if something sounds too good to be true, it literally is too good to be true. Although I do not consider the claims of religions particularly truthful, the followers do- and they never seem to pick up on this.
Also, those who always claim power from God often wield it in terrible ways on this planet, and somehow it never loses them the favour of their followers. In the past, when Christianity had a huge grip on the world, we saw what happened- and that is what is happening in the unbridled theocracies of the Middle East now.
For the alleged 'crime' of renouncing Islam, a Pakistani poet is being sentenced to death in Saudi Arabia. Atheist writers get butchered to death in Bangladesh at roughly the rate of once every month, and the extreme dictatorships sentence dissidents, blasphemers, and other people exercising their fundamental rights to death routinely.
It's almost as if the house of cards would tumble with the slightest poke. Almost all gods I know of are too thin skinned.
According to the Guardian, Palestinian poet Ashraf Fayadh has been sentenced to death by a court in Saudi Arabia for renouncing Islam. Fayadh's relatives say his real crime is posting a video showing 'religious' police beating a man in public.
He was initially sentenced to four years in prison and 800 lashes, but then got the death sentence on appeal, in which he had no representation.
Via The Guardian….
A Palestinian poet and leading member of Saudi Arabia's nascent contemporary art scene has been sentenced to death for renouncing Islam.
A Saudi court on Tuesday ordered the execution of Ashraf Fayadh, who has curated art shows in Jeddah and at the Venice Biennale. The poet, who said he did not have legal representation, was given 30 days to appeal against the ruling.
Fayadh, 35, a key member of the British-Saudi art organisation Edge of Arabia, was originally sentenced to four years in prison and 800 lashes by the general court in Abha,
But after his appeal was dismissed he was retried last month and a new panel of judges ruled that his repentance did not prevent his execution.
Mona Kareem, a migrant rights activist from Kuwait who has led a campaign for the poet's release, said: "For one and a half years they promised him an appeal and kept intimidating him that there's new evidence.
"He was unable to assign a lawyer because his ID was confiscated when he was arrested [in January 2014]. Then they said you must have a retrial and we'll change the prosecutor and the judges. The new judge didn't even talk to him, he just made the verdict."
The religious police first detained Fayadh in August 2013 after receiving a complaint that he was cursing against Allah and the prophet Muhammad, insulting Saudi Arabia and distributing a book of his poems that promoted atheism.
He was released on bail after one day but the police arrested him again on 1 January 2014, confiscating his ID and detaining him at a police station until he was transferred to the local prison 27 days later. According to Fayadh's friends, when the police failed to prove that his poetry was atheist propaganda, they began berating him for smoking and having long hair.
"I was really shocked but it was expected, though I didn't do anything that deserves death," Fayadh told the Guardian.
The whole 'trial' has been an exercise in Kangarooism. He has been hit with charges of atheism and spreading 'destructive ideas' in society. The entire appeal the new judge barely listened to his side.
Sadly, this is nothing new in the Kingdom of America's foremost mid-east ally. Remember Mohammed Al-Nimr, sentenced to death as a 17 year old for attending a public rally? Women are mistreated in this country, all under the pretence of religion. Although, you really cannot complain- because that would be demonising an entire religion.
Saudi Arabia is not representative of Islam, but they are a part of it. There are some truly destructive ideas in the Quran, just as there are in any other holy book- and one should be able to criticise those without having to face charges of bigotry and Islamophobia.
And, it just reinforces how absolute power corrupts, especially when you can justify it as being from God. We would do well not to forget that.

The Qur'an strongly enjoins Muslims to treat animals with compassion and not to abuse them. It states that all creatures praise Him, even though it is not expressed in human language.
Our support for the cattery, 'Patitas Felices' in Acapulco, Mexico, highlights this, helping the community understand the reltionship between animals and mankind in Islam.
'Patitas Felices' is a not for profit organisation, an initiative started by a small group of people, committed to bring welfare to those abandoned, neglected, mistreated and abused cats. The climate in Acapulco can reach record heights and water is a scarce commodity for animals in distress during some parts of the year.
Some of the work carried out includes low cost sterelisation for pet owners on low income, organisation of medical brigades for pet rescue in poor areas, free vacination for stray and abandoned cats, de-worming and adoption.
Due to lack of state funding, they operate with their own resources and with the help of volunteers and freinds, who make donations to support their efforts. A veterinarin provides medical assistance in any emergency situation and aids with rescue operations.
Our support helps shelter around fifty cats, providing meals, water and comfort whilst they recover and can be adopted.
The project is a great success and much appreciated by the local communities, who due to lack of knowledge or ignorance, find themselves battling with stray and sick animals.

What You Should Know About Out-of-NetworkPosted on: December 7, 2018
Category: Blog, Health Insurance, Out-of-network
The healthcare market is constantly changing. Before, patients could visit any doctor, hospital of healthcare facility without worrying if their insurance would cover the expenses. But that is all on the past. Now, most insurance plans restrict patients as to what medical providers they can see, by refusing to pay for those services and care. It forces patients to conform to a limited number of healthcare providers that are inside their insurance network. But if patients visit or receive care, knowingly or not, from a provider not covered by their insurance, they are going out-of-network (OON).
What exactly is out-of-network
OON refers to physicians, hospitals or any other healthcare providers who are not inside a patient's insurer's provider network. OON is becoming more common since the rise of narrow networks, cheap premium healthcare plans that limit the patient to receive care from a handful of in-network health care providers and hospitals. Around 18 billion out-of-network health claims were made between 2013-2014, according to a study by America's Health Insurance Plan (AHIP). Since narrow networks mean fewer providers are in a patients network, it will continue to result in more out-of-network care.
Even when a provider or hospital is in-network for a given plan, one or more of the doctors whom an insured patient sees while there, may be out of their network. Patients with comprehensive health insurance are getting hit with unforeseen and often substantial out-of-network bills. 18% of inpatient admissions result in out-of-network charges for the patients.
The charges typically arise when a patient goes to an in-network hospital but at some point, most times unknowingly, receives care from an out-of-network medical professional. For example, patients who needed anesthesia or pathology service were more likely to receive out-of-network bills, which may not be covered by their insurance. Or patients that needed mental health and substance abuse treatments were also more likely to be billed by out-of-network providers.
Submitting OON Medical Claims
Depending on an individual's health insurance plan, expenses incurred for services provided by out-of-plan health professionals may not be covered. Or they may partially covered by an individual's insurance company. The patient is forced to pay for the services out-of-pocket, with their own money. Later submit that claim to their insurance provider for reimbursement.
Making these medical insurance claims is an arduous process, it's extremely time consuming and prone to errors. Patients are forced to fill out paper forms, and send them to their health care providers or do them electronically. Then, they must wait for a response and later, if approved, receive a reimbursement. If denied, they must through the process again. They could also negotiate those bills with the hospital to bring down the costs, but this hardly happens. Patients sometimes even hire medical billing advocates to handle their claims, however, they must pay a fee for their services.
Other patients opt to use mobile applications to eliminate the stress of submitting the forms. They use apps such as Claimeye a mobile app that facilitates and expedites the process of submitting OON medical claims. Claimeye eliminates the hassle of filling out a form and mailing it to the insurance provider, to wait for a response and reimbursement. With the app, the patient simply takes a picture of the insurance card and the receipt. Claimeye will handle the rest.
Can patients choose out-of-network care?
The most attractive reason for patients to opt for out-of-network is the fact they can choose any provider they wish. Patients have the freedom to decide which doctor, hospital, health facility or lab they choose, if they are willing to pay. As a result, there has been a rise in tools that aid patients in the reimbursement process of OON claims, such is the case of Claimeye.
Patients don't have to worry anymore about going out of their network, or even handling the process of submitting their out-of-network medical claims.
Try Claimeye!

Just do it!! That is a slogan we see everyday. And people now use it as a "cliche" almost. If "just doing it" were that easy, we wouldn't have the mental illnesses, the suicides, the lack of motivation and the people just plain STUCK. THERE IS something deeper that just can't be unstuck by someone telling you to "just do it", OR by medicating them….that is just a bandaid…we are OFFERING full healing! and FREEDOM.
There are millions of people, (sadly) who have been traumatized at one point or another in their life. Trauma survivors- whether from abuse, accident, war, growing up with an alcoholic parent, watching a parent get abused by the other parent, the list goes on…..can end up "deeply and wounded, betrayed by their body for failing to get them to safety and for causing them pain". (Overcoming trauma through yoga). Most trauma sufferer's have lost hope. They are just put on some medications and sent of their way. But, to fully heal from trauma, a connection must be made to oneself. They need to get back into their bodies. They need a true, "renewing of the mind." They have believed a lie for so long, and when you believe the lie, you empower the liar.
Trauma is a fact of life. Veteran's and their families deal with the painful aftermath of combat; 1 in 5 American's have been molested; 1 in 4 grew up with alcoholic parent's; 1 in 3 couple's engaged in physical violence.
Women at the Well ministries is committed and dedicated to healing this epidemic. Yes, it's an epidemic.
We do more than just encourage and say, "JUST DO IT". We are doing the work!
We are focused on expanding beyond traditional talk therapies that only focus on the mind.
Our purpose is to help survivor's reconnect to their bodies, with their breath and emotions.
We use worship music, teaching them how to meditate and quiet their mind so that they can have a "renewed mind". The mind part is so important. Our thought patterns are highways to spiritual realities, and strong holds are developed through thought patterns. So, we also use scripture, actually teaching them how to "study and pray" the word, not just read the word. We help them release their normal "chaotic approach to life" that is limited in thought, which will enhance their faith. We teach them to think with a "DIVINE PERSPECTIVE".We give them applications on how to "cast down thoughts and high things" (2 corinthians 10:5) The high things in this verse is referring to the "demonic realm". We are not a religious cult or anything, as a matter of fact, we are not religious at all. We are Jesus people. Jesus himself didn't tolerate religion as it did anything BUT set people FREE.
Our sister's are taught how the breath, mindfulness and movement can impact their healing journey. WE use Holy Yoga as our physical tool. Because the intention is JESUS who is the Master Physician.
We are not "trained" counselor's, but what we do offer is a creative way to facilitate an alternate (natural) way of healing. We utilize movement to get their brain to work in a functional way.
THERE IS HOPE….complete healing can be accomplished. Even the diseases that manifest because of this trauma.
We have a lot of work to do, many people to help….BUT, we need your help!
We need financial partner's to help us do this mission of healing and FREEDOM. Just to run on a daily basis, and to offer scholarships to those who can't afford our retreat's or any curriculum that they may need.
Please consider a monthly gift or a one time donation. For your monthly gift of at least $30, we will send you "The Woman at the Well" 4 week spiritual bootcamp book. This study alone will get someone on the path to healing.
click here to donate: PARTNER WITH US and click on "PARTNER WITH US".
And if you or someone you know needs to start their healing journey, get signed up for our next retreat. We have early bird pricing and payment plans to accommodate everyone!

Lastly, we always need your prayers!
In His Love,

- Throughly clean and dry surface from oil, dirt and grease with Mineral Turpentine. Allow to dry completely before applying silicone. If there old silicone which needs to be removed, we recommend using SELLEYS SILICONE REMOVER, this ingenous product makes removing old silicone easy.
- Remove tab lock and nozzle cap. Twist collar clockwise towards MAX and adjust between MIN and MAX to control flow.
- Simply press lever gently to dispense filler to surface.
- Smooth with a spatula dipped in soapy water.
- Clean up before sealant skins (5-10 min) with a cloth dampened in mineral turpentine.

Handy tips
- For a neat finish and easy clean up, tape both sides of the gap before applying the product.
- When first applying product, extrude a small amount onto a piece of scrap material to ensure a smooth continuous flow of silicone sealant.
- Remove the tape before the silicone sealant skins.
- For a better finish complete painting 7 days prior to use of the sealant as it can not be painted over.
- For a better finish use a spatula dipped in mineral turpetine or detergent and water to tool off the sealant.
- Work in sections that can be completed before sealant skins. Tooling off and tape removal must be completed before skinning occurs or a rough surface, may result so working in sections allows for a better finish.
- Keep a pack of SELLEYS Sugar Soap Wipes handy to wipe up any spills and for cleaning any material off the skin before it cures.

A joint publication of: Astro Logos and Zyntara Publications
November 2008
VAN Archive - www.Zyntara.com
Comments: For those of you who may have missed the September Visual Astrology Newsletter focused on the US elections, we talked of how the sky was reflecting the struggle for the "throne" and not only how the young "crown prince" would be victorious but that this victory had long legs.
Sometimes we have to stand back to see something a little more clearly and if we forget the actual candidates, the natal charts, the nation's chart, the election chart, the swearing-in chart or any other such charts, then we can see a more straightforward picture. The sky narrative at the time scheduled for the US elections showed the Moon passing underneath Jupiter, a symbol that power is being given to Jupiter. Indeed we could think of Jupiter as being "over the Moon" and thus in a joyful position. This empowered Jupiter was also being radiated by a brilliant Venus, another uncomplicated statement that Jupiter (symbolic of the Crown Prince) was being strongly endorsed.
It is also
using this same straightforward sky logic that we can look forward to
future US elections, right now without needing to know who will be running
and what are their charts, or even what chart to use for the USA. When we
look at November 2012, it is just as straightforward to see that the
ruling party does not lose the throne, so the Democrats win the 2012
election (hopefully still with Obama in the driving seat). More
importantly, we can see that the Democrats also win the election in
November 2016. Indeed it is not until Tuesday 3rd November 2020 that the
Republicans regain the "throne". So if you want the big picture,
look up to the sky!
To subscribe or
I have been reminded of this lately not only by the current world events of a new era in USA, and thus world politics but also by a boat trip. The continents of Europe and Asia are separated by a long thin strip of sea known as the Bosporus which, at its narrowest point, is only 700 yards wide. This narrow stretch of water has been guarded since ancient times and is currently flanked by two ancient castles which once watched over this still-busy shipping lane.
Like all myths there were also "other world laws" at play. By casting her ballot before her death, Madelyn Dunham was able to speak from the underworld.
The sky also holds the Symplegades. In the
constellation of Libra there are two stars, known as the gate keepers.
They are equidistance from the ecliptic and used to mark the beginning of
the Sun's journey into the underworld. The one that guards the northern
side of the passage is named Zuben Eschamali (the northern claw) and
the other which guards the southern side of this narrow passage is named
On Tuesday 5th November, it just so happened that Mars was riding through these Symplegades in the sky, and although this sky narrative alone would not be enough to reflect world events, as Mars travels this journey every two and a half years, for me this sky picture at the time of the elections held some wonder, as it was yet another confirmation of the union between the world of humans and the sky, that same reflection articulated by the the Stoics as the Cosmos of Humankind mirroring the cosmos without.
Wallace Simpson (born 19th
June 1895 or some say 1896), the divorcee whom Edward VIII married and
whose action then required him to abdicate the throne of England, had
her Uranus in the Symplegades, regardless of her year of birth. Since
Uranus is a planet of the collective, on a collective level this
heralded great change to the entire dynasties of the UK monarchy.
Neptune last passed through these Gates in the mid-1960s. This was a time of social upheaval, race issues, New Age thinking, the rise of personal freedom and the landing on the Moon.
Uranus last passed through these gates in 1978-1980. This was the period when the first international packet switched network was created. This is a network communications method that splits data traffic into chunks, called packets, that are then routed over a shared network, and was a major step forward in the birth of the internet.
The world has changed just a little but in what appears to be the right direction and once again, as I have often been since we started this newsletter four years ago, I am awed by the reflections of sky and state, sky and personal life and the continuing, never-ending dialogue that exists between the sky narrative and life on earth.
Outer Planets and Stars - a look at Barack Obama's parans
There is much that can and will be written about the chart of
President-elect Barack
Obama (born 4 August, 1961 at 19.24 in Honolulu, Hawaii)
and prior to the election, in the September issue of this
newsletter I looked at
the the
pairing of images on his eastern and western horizons as a way of
determining, through
astrology, what he brings to his relationships with others and therefore
how he is seen by the world.
Setting when Schedar
is Rising (The alpha star of Cassiopeia, the Queen)
In hindsight
it is easy to see how these parans have already matured through his legal
and administrative work. Here are a few instances from his biography [2]:
* Director
of the Developing Communities Project (DCP), Chicago, where he helped set
up a job training program, a college preparatory tutoring program, and a
tenants' rights organization
(June 1985 to May 1988).
All of this experience helped shape the way Obama approached the 2008 election. We are told that after college, Obama's social conscience steered him to become a community organizer where he learned to listen to people and recognized where social change was acutely needed (Uranus-Deneb Algedi). Mixed in with this social conscience is the skill to collect information on behalf of a group or the community in order to bring in social change ("truth") for that particular community (Uranus-Scheat). However, what takes him into prominence is the final ingredient of Uranus in paran with Schedar, gifting him with "queenly dignity" and natural leadership ability, a trait that emerged in primary school.
Neptune seeks change by taking someone into an
enchanted space and showing them an ideal.
Fomalhaut is one of the Royal Stars of Persia (see VAN November 2006) and as such represents a trial or a temptation through which the individual must work before true success can be achieved. Being one of the Royal Stars, he is gifted with charisma, a touch of the mystic, a sense of magic based on high ideals or lofty visions. He has already shown himself to be a master of the virtual world in raising campaign money via the internet. Now he must be extremely clear and honest with himself about his motives in order to make sure that personal glory does not become the main driving force as President of the USA. If he can do that, he may just become one of the most loved presidents the USA has ever seen.
Finally, Obama has one star in paran with his 7th house North Node (mean) in Leo:
Paul Simon sang about "the days of miracle and wonder" in the latter years of the last century. Maybe they are just about to come to pass.

Obama sends top officials to AU summit
Saturday January 29 2011
The US Government has sent a team of high level security officials to the African Union summit to hold consultations with Sudanese authorities.
According to US Embassy in Addis Ababa, the officials including deputy Secretary of State James Steinberg, Assistant Secretary of State for African Affairs Johnnie Carson and National Security Council Senior Director for Africa Mary Yates, will be in Addis at AU summit on Sunday.
US Special Envoy to Sudan Scott Gration, USAid Deputy Assistant Administrator for Africa Larry Garber and Feed the Future Deputy Coordinator for Development William J. Garvelink are also in the delegation.
The US team is also scheduled to hold the first South Sudan post-referendum consultation and the next steps on peace efforts in Darfur and eastern Sudan regions.
Sudanese President Omar Hassan al-Bashir and his Deputy Salva Kiir are already in Addis, having arrived on Friday evening.
Sudanese Embassy officials said talks will focus on the post referendum arrangements and sustaining lasting peace and stability in Sudan.
The US has pledged to offer "incentives" to Khartoum, including removing Sudan from a list of terrorists supporting nations.
Mr Gration will also proceed to Sudan next week to assess the latest development in the country gearing for a split.
Besides the AU summit, the United Nations and the union's top officials will hold a private consultations on Sunday with the Sudanese parties and Ethiopian officials, in the latter's capacity as the chair of the regional security bloc, Igad.
"The delegation will attend the African Union Summit plenary and conduct consultations with African and other leaders on a wide range of bilateral, regional and global issues, including regional security, human rights, and democratisation." US Embassy statement says.
Meanwhile, the US will on Monday inaugurate its biggest embassy complex in sub-Saharan Africa in Addis Ababa, re-affirming the global super power's increasing interest in the Horn of Africa region.
Several African leaders are expected to attend the inauguration.
