JAKARTA, NETRALNEWS.COM - The policies of Muhammad Bin Salman have recently surprised many people. The arrest of 11 princes, including Waleed bin Talal, and some ministers and former ministers of the Kingdom of Arabia are certainly not the usual steps taken by leading royal family members in that country.
A lot of speculation and rumors are in circulation related to the formation of a sudden Corruption Eradication Commission and directly targeting influential people in the kingdom.
Is this purely an attempt to rid the kingdom of corrupt practices? The "brave" steps taken by the Crown Prince are certainly not independent, but are related to many events.
Earlier the security forces had made a mass arrest of critical groups of scholars, intellectuals, professionals and businessmen for questioning Saudi policy to fight in Yemen and an embargo on Qatar.
Their critical voices in social media are perceived as endangering the stability of the State. Shortly after the arrest of princes in an operation against corruption, the public was struck by the murder of Prince Mansour bin Muqrin, son of Muqrin bin Abdul Aziz, in a plane crash on the Yemeni border (6/11) 2017.
Not long after that was reported also the death of Prince Abdul Aziz bin Fahd bin Abdul Aziz after a shootout with security forces who tried to catch him. Within 24 hours, the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia has lost two influential princes.
On the Bankruptcy Threshold? The condition of Saudi economy that is not getting better due to declining oil prices has threatened the political stability and future of the kingdom.
Even predicted if there are no serious steps taken by the kingdom, then Saudi Arabia has the potential to experience bankruptcy. Since 2015 the Saudi has a budget deficit and continues in 2016 and 2017.
To tackle this economic problem the Saudis launched a very ambitious program called Saudi Vision 2030.
It is hoped that through this program the dependence of state revenues on the oil sector could be reduced by 50 percent, the increase of new jobs especially for women workers and the progress of socio-economic reforms.
It seems that this rescue program has not shown satisfactory results although in general the deficit trend is beginning to be reduced.
The Saudi involvement in the unending war in Yemen further increased the financial burden of the kingdom. Saudi miscalculation severed ties and embargoes against Qatar has lowered public confidence in the rulers. Moreover Saudi is currently applying for a loan of 10 billion US dollars to the IMF.
A policy that is perceived to gradually worsen the Saudi economy. Some research suggests that most of the African countries, for example, who are assisted by the IMF end up with more tragic conditions. While it is common knowledge that state finances are also used to finance the luxurious lifestyle of the Istana family.
Under these circumstances, Muhammad bin Salman, who will inherit the royal throne, attempted to take a "courageous" step to save the future of the kingdom and improve the image in the public eye. One of them is by launching corruption eradication operation under the pretext of increasing efficiency, transparency and accountability.
The impact of corruption eradication operations is expected to reap public appreciation and support. Public support was urgently needed by the Kingdom because in the not-too-distant future in order to raise the state's revenue from the non-oil sector, the Kingdom imposed a new tax on Saudi families of 100 riyals and also introduced value added tax.
In addition, the Saudi government began to reduce allowances for royal employees and would revoke the electricity subsidies and other basic needs that are perceived to have burdened the Kingdom's finances.
It is understandable that the subsidy removal program and the introduction of tax for the Saudi people will cause social unrest so that the image enhancement of the ruler needs to be increased through corruption eradication program.
Although the program is actually suspected as an effort to consolidate politics and get rid of princes who are not in line with Bin Salman's policies.
Political Consolidation Efforts to strengthen the Crown Prince's position need to be done so that his position is not disrupted and the succession of leadership can proceed smoothly. King Salman wanted to make sure when he released his power will soon be followed by the appointment of the Crown Prince as King.
Given there is a tendency in Saudi political culture that once the father dies then the child loses influence in the Imperial family environment. This political consolidation needs to be done to ensure that the very young Bin Salman can become the next king of Arabia smoothly.
Some attempts to bypass the influence of the Crown Prince's competitor, among others, can be seen in King's policy to remove Prince Mutib bin Abdullah from the position of the Minister of National Defense in relation to the issue of corruption.
Prince Mansour bin Muqrin's mysterious death in a plane crash will reduce the critical group within the Palace.
Mansour's father, Muqrin bin Abdul Aziz himself, had been appointed Crown Prince at the beginning of King Salman in power and replaced by Muhammad bin Nayef bin Abdul Aziz. Not long served as the crown prince, bin Nayef was later replaced by Muhammad bin Salman.
Presumably efforts to create a positive image through the movement of corruption eradication and political consolidation is a very bold step from the Crown Prince. Al-Waleed bin Talal himself was accused of money laundering and alleged to have initiated investment in Iran.
Although Al-Waleed said he would stop his plan after the Saudis declared Iran to be the main enemy of the Middle East countries, its relationship with Iran remains in dispute. The steps taken by the Crown Prince seem to have created a great gap for the reverse resistance of the princes.
If this is the case then it is certain that the political stability of the Saudi Kingdom will be disrupted and the path to power for Bin Salman will not be smooth. The courageous move has caused disappointment and hostility from members of the Istana family itself.
The last incident of Prince Abdul Aziz bin Fahd's assassination in an arrest operation against those opposed to Bin Salman will also spark new problems. Abdul Aziz himself is a business partner of Saad Hariri, the Lebanese Prime Minister who just stepped down. Hariri resigned from his post shortly after meeting Bin Salman in Riyad.
It seems that the Saudis are not satisfied with Hariri, who has been Prime Minister of Lebanon since 2016 for leading a coalition government in which there is a representative from Hezbollah. The displeasure heightened as Hariri met with Ali-Akbar Velayati, foreign adviser Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, Iran's spiritual leader.
As a result, shortly after his visit to Saudi Arabia, Hariri also submitted his resignation as Prime Minister of Lebanon.
The question is whether the bold steps of Muhammad bin Salman in conquering his political opponents among the Imperial family will succeed? Whether Saudi involvement in the Yemen war, the embargo on Qatar and its readiness to fight with Lebanon would strengthen the position of the Crown Prince or vice versa.

from earliest times to the year 1541. Edited by William M. Hennessy and B. MacCarthy.
Introduction by Nollaig O' Muraile
The work which since the early 17th century has generally gone under the title of The
Annals of Ulster is indisputably the most valuable source for the early history of Ireland
and indeed of Scotland also. Its main value lies in its trustworthiness: it is considered to
have preserved, with an astonishing degree of accuracy, copies of contemporary records
of events dating from as far back as the late 7th century - together with somewhat less
reliable details, based on memory, of matters from some generations previous to that
This faithful reproduction of the original record has allowed linguistic scholars to plot
the evolution of the Irish language through its various phases, from Old to Middle and
on to Early Modern Irish.
The work is also of enormous value for the history of Ulster, and especially the late 15th
century under the direction of Cathal Og Mac Maghnusa, cleric, chieftain and scholar,
who died five centuries ago in 1498. It is therefore appropriate that this, the only
complete edition of the Annals to be published to date, should in 1998 be made available
once more as a memorial to Cathal Og and the scribes and scholars who laboured under
him(particularly Ruairi O Luinn, who penned almost all of the two early manuscript
Annals of Ireland by the Four Masters
On the 22nd January, 1632, this work was undertaken in the convent of Dunagall (Donegal), and was finished in the same convent on the 10th of August 1636.
Although it is just one of several Irish annals, The Annals
Of Ireland by the Four
Masters is probably the best known account of ancient Irish history (and the one most
Often referred to). It covers events from the earliest times to 1616 AD. As indicated
above it was completed in 1636, and it is believed to be based largely on earlier historical
records (some of which have now been irretrievably lost it seems). Brother Michael
O'Clery was the chief of the Four Masters employed to compile this major historical
The "Annals of Tigernach" (Teerna), written in Irish
with an admixture of Latin, deal
chiefly with the history of Ireland. Tigernach was Abbot of Clonmacnoise and
Roscommon and died in 1088; it is conjectured by M. d'Arbois de Jubainville that his
annals (valuable but meagre) were based on some ancient records kept uninterruptedly
at Clonmacnoise from 544, the year of its foundation.

Thomson Reuters profit tops Wall Street forecasts
Wednesday 8 May 2019
The year is off to a solid start, Thomson Reuters president and CEO James Smith declared on Wednesday in a statement with the group's first quarter results.
The parent of Reuters News reported stronger than expected Q1 profit and reaffirmed its forecast for the rest of this year and 2020.
Earnings excluding special items of 36 cents per share compared with 28 cents a year ago.
First quarter revenue rose eight per cent from a year ago to $1.49 billion, slightly below analysts' average estimate of $1.5 billion.
"The trajectory of the business continued to improve on the progress made last year. Revenue growth is tracking to our outlook. Recurring revenue growth is the strongest we have seen in several years. Net sales are strong and our book of business continues to grow. Our transformation initiatives are on track and we are seeing good underlying margin improvement. We remain confident in our ability to achieve our 2019 and 2020 targets," Smith said.
Currency exchange rates weighed on sales across the company's operations. Excluding that effect, each of the company's units reported higher revenue. The largest business, legal professionals, reported a three per cent rise in sales in constant currency and a 19 per cent jump in adjusted earnings.
For 2019, the company repeated its forecast for revenue growth of 7 to 8.5 per cent before the effect of currency exchange rates and sales growth of about half that pace in 2020.
Last year, Thomson Reuters sold a 55 per cent stake in its financial & risk (F&R) unit, which provides data and news primarily to financial customers, to private equity firm Blackstone. The deal valued the F&R unit, now a standalone business called Refinitiv, at about $20 billion.
Revenue from Reuters News more than doubled to $155 million in the quarter, due to a 30-year agreement for Reuters to supply news and editorial content to Refinitiv, which began in the fourth quarter of 2018.
Thomson Reuters, controlled by Canada's Thomson family, has said it set aside $2 billion of the $17 billion proceeds from the Blackstone deal to make purchases to help expand its legal, tax & accounting and corporates businesses.
In December, Thomson Reuters said it would reduce its workforce by 12 per cent in the next two years, cutting 3,200 jobs as part of a plan to streamline the business and reduce costs. ■

About this cartoon...
Say hello to our friendly cartoon crocodile, another of my little afternoon sketches. I wanted a crocodile to accompany the other animals in the portfolio and being green, I thought he'd make a nice contrast.
One of a series of jungle animals that I've completed recently for a small project online.
Created firstly as a pencil sketch, I then added digital outlines to the cartoon crocodile and then applied some nice swampy shades of green. The final stage was to then add some shading and subtle highlights.
Not sure if this little chap could do with more teeth – the better to eat you with my dear – but then being a friendly crocodile, he'd probably help you carry the shopping home instead.

What it means to pursue an active sustainable investing strategy
Published 15 April 2019
Thematic investingESGEngagement
For years, meetings between a corporation's executive team and active investment managers have followed the same format. Investors sit down with the chief financial officer, or chief executive officer, and discuss the outlook for the company.
But the trend towards sustainable investing is finally driving a change to this formula. Now a CFO might bring seven or eight directors to talk about how their respective departments are addressing concerns from gender inequality to carbon emissions and supply chain risks.
Such a trend illustrates the seriousness with which corporate managers are taking environmental, social and governance (ESG) concerns, integrating it into decision-making at all levels of the business. We believe it also shows that the forum for driving real change is in the boardroom rather than from solely behind a computer screen.
Money talks
Corporate engagement forms a central pillar of the active approach to sustainable investing, and a policy of regularly talking to and meeting corporate decision makers has some advantages over other approaches.
Firstly, and perhaps most importantly from the viewpoint of sustainable investing, a strategy of engagement provides a setting in which to raise concerns about how a company manages the impact it has on the society or environment in which it operates.
This can take several forms. Engagement often starts with questions submitted to a company's investor relations team. These concerns can be escalated to discussions with management, and ultimately be expressed in voting patterns and shareholder resolutions.
For example, in discussions with executives at luxury goods firm LVMH, the company committed to targeted improvements in key areas such as recycling and monitoring potential weaknesses in its supply chain, such as slaughterhouses. As investors, we are now in a position to follow the company's progress on these commitments.
Beyond the balance sheet
Secondly, an engaged asset manager is more likely to spot the sort of risks and opportunities that don't show up on the balance sheet. These non-financial risks can have a real financial impact on a firm over time.
Interacting with corporate managers gives a good sense of the culture of a company. A poor culture giving rise to issues such as employment discrimination or product safety is a source of risk that is likely to materialise in the form of fines or recall costs later on.
There are important qualitative, as well as quantitative impacts. For example, companies that ignore the importance of a diverse board and workforce may find it harder to recruit and retain the most talented employees. Similarly, a leadership whose values are at odds with their employees' risks harming morale and motivation among their staff, hampering the company's ability to innovate and outperform its competitors.
Meanwhile, companies with poor governance face increased reputational risk, which, when realised, can severely depress stock prices in the short and medium term. Active asset managers have a role to play in holding corporate management to account and minimising these risks.
We firmly believe engagement ultimately delivers benchmark-beating returns. According to an academic study1, ESG engagements generate an excess return of 1.8 per cent over the year following the initial engagement. Engagement on corporate governance and climate change themes was found to be the most profitable, generating excess returns of 8.6 per cent and 10.3 per cent respectively.
The report found that interactions with investors on ESG issues focused the minds of corporate managers. "After successful engagements, companies experience improvements in operating performance, profitability, efficiency, and governance," the study, published in the Review of Financial Studies in 2015, said.
Engagement is a two-way street, and it provides a forum for collaboration between asset managers and executives where they can discuss how best to realise their ESG objectives.
For example, now-nationalised Dutch bank ABN Amro capped the salary of its CEO at around €700,000, and with zero bonus, to limit expenses and curb risk-taking behaviour following the 2008 financial crisis. Engaged asset managers were able to help the company realise how important it was to promote the cap publicly as a best practice and make it more likely to be kept in place in the future. This was a long-term benefit to shareholders in that it by amending the remuneration scheme it reduced the executive's incentive to pursue risky business strategies that have the potential to undermine the financial strength of the firm.
We note that around a quarter of companies we engage with ask us to give advice on how to improve their communication or disclosure on specific topics. Working together, we have a better chance of sustaining positive momentum.
There are several ways to approach sustainable investing, but the paths share the same aim: to combine the investor's ESG priorities with maximised investment returns.
At Fidelity, we take an active ownership approach and strongly believe that fostering change through engagement is the most effective and lasting way to positively influence corporate behaviour.
This approach includes direct dialogue with management and directors; collaborating in coalition with stakeholders for greater impact; and the effective use of proxy voting. Through regular engagement we can create value, manage risk and help to improve outcomes for both the investor and society as a whole.

Electional astrology is the art of choosing a date for the best possible outcome of something.
It's one reason why weddings often happen on a Saturday- Saturday is Saturns day and therefore associated with commitment.
Oh, there's also that other pesky reason about making sure your guests can get the day off work.
You wouldn't choose to commence a major network upgrade project during Mercury Retrograde, you wouldn't start a diet when the Moon is in either Taurus or Cancer (although Taurus can cement your resolve, I wouldn't take the risk).
You would, however, start a 50,000 word in a month writing challenge when the Moon is in let the words flow freely Gemini, and the Sun is sextiling Pluto. Maybe the organisers of nanowrimo knew this?
Yesterday I was on word count fire. The Moon was conjunct Jupiter so more words flowed. Unfortunately the other usual effect was also present in that I found myself in major Moon-Jupiter binge territory- but that's another story entirely.
With Venus and Uranus facing off, I figured yesterday was the best day to write my big "break up I need more space" scene.
I do that, jump from scene to scene- depending on my mood.
Anyways, the Moon will be in Cancer for the rest of Saturday (here in Sydney), and will move into Cancer just in time for a home cooked, "do I really need to go out when I can get a meal like this at home?" dinner.
For those of you in the Northern Hemisphere, the Moon will be in Cancer for all of your weekend.
The first part of this transit will be beautifully watery as a water grand trine is stimulated with links to Neptune, Saturn and the Sun.
Do it with feeling.
If you want to follow my nano journey, the word count thingie is in the side bar.
I'm also updating on and anyways as I go.
Speaking of which, the link to yesterdays friday five is here.

Phoebe Sloan isn't afraid of hard work—she couldn't have survived on the Arizona frontier if she were. But ever since her husband was killed in a ranch accident, she's struggled to make ends meet and preserve her young son's birthright. Her last gamble was to start raising ostriches—the plumes are prized by fashionable city ladies—and it could work, but someone's determined to sabotage her efforts.

Walsall manager Jon Whitney, who has guided his team to five consecutive home victories, has spoken to club journalists ahead of this evening's rearranged League One clash with Chesterfield and discussed his desire to keep the recent spell of form going as they welcome the Spireites to Banks's Stadium.
Jon, who was speaking via Saddlers.co.uk, said; "I'm expecting a tough game from Gary's team. They're off the back of a confidence boosting late win against relegation rivals Swindon, so they'll be taking that forward.
"I thought they played really well. I know it will be a true, true test for my players but one which myself, my players and staff are looking forward to."
The Gaffer then went on to set out his objectives for this evening's match, he continued; "We take each game as it comes but we have to have targets and objectives. The objectives are the possibility of going eighth, the possibility of breaking the 50-point barrier and winning six games on the bounce at home.
"It's still nice to have something to play for so we're really doing everything we can. As long as we're in every game, that's what we want. It's important we just keep the consistency and I think we're doing that."

So apparently I blinked and I'm now in the third trimester of this pregnancy. Sweet actual mercy. I still alter between "holy crap this is flying by" and "holy crap I still have three months left to go" but really, it's still just weird to me that I'm pregnant. In any case, I figured the third trimester deserved an update similar to when I was pregnant with Riley. So here we go:
How far along? 29 (30 on Sunday) weeks. So sixish months.
How big is the baby? A little over 3 lbs. And apparently the size of a butternut squash (always so weird to me).
Total weight gain: 16 lbs. 90% of my weight gain has probably come from baked goods and candy.
Anxious about: Having another kid. I mean, I know it's a little late for that. But lately when Riley has been a total terror I just laugh because OMIGOD we're doing this again. I'm also slightly stressed about reorganizing Riley's room and closet so we can get out the baby clothes and baby things and somehow magically make all of it fit into his room and our apartment.
Excited about: Meeting this guy in a few months. Baby snuggles. Seeing Riley as a big brother. Taking maternity photos with Lan again next month.
Feeling: Honestly, every day it changes. Sometimes I'm excited, sometimes I'm exhausted, some days I'm stressed about adding another member to our family and some days I'm just so excited that this is really happening.
Exercise: My only exercise these days continues to be chasing Riley around. And going to the park. Or walking at the zoo. I miss my long walks, but alas this toddler doesn't like to be cooped up in a stroller for too long any more. I really need to start lifting again and get my arms ready for carseat carrying though, ha.
Sleep: WHAT IS SLEEP? I MISS SLEEP. I MISS SLEEP SO MUCH.
Movement: Usually first thing in the morning and late at night I feel this little guy kicking and turning. I don't think he's moving as much as Riley was at this point, but I do also have an anterior placenta which may be hindering some of it, but I do love feeling him move.
Food Cravings: Ramen. Naked Juice Green Machine. Anything sweet.
The other day, unprompted, Riley told me we should name his brother 'Cheese.' He also waved to his brother and was talking to him then looked at me very seriously and goes "Mommy, why my brother not talking to me?" Don't know how to break it to him that his brother won't be talking to him for a while, ha.
This kid has no name. Nothing has stuck out to either of us. I don't love anything. And I'm almost afraid that I never will. Naming a person is hard. And I know we've got a few weeks to nail this down, but still, AH.
I've yet to have any random stranger encounters lately, which is pretty nice. No random belly touches and no absurd comments. Only people I know that share in their excitement and touch my belly whenever because I'm totally fine with it.
All day on Christmas Riley was a wild and rowdy machine and all I could think was "holy crap there's going to be another here next year." It was both terrifying and hilarious.
happy weekend!Posted in Me Things

Day 37 of the $100k Challenge +1.8k | Ep. #40
Transcription of Today's Best Trades
All right, guys, we'll do a midday market recap here. Lunch time. Day 37. Overall today was a pretty choppy day, and I just didn't see the level of follow through that I was looking for on most of my trades. I'm finishing the day up $1,491 and I gave back about $1,400 of profit. I was up like $2,900 earlier in the day but I lost $1,000 on HTGM, and then lost really on commissions the remaining $300, plus or minus. Just kind of a tricky day. Most of the spots where I was expecting to see good follow through, we just didn't see it. I kept all of my stocks tight, small losses, one big winner, and several small wins or small losses. I had five back to back losses on HTGM. None of them more than … the biggest one was $400, the smallest one was $75, but just frustrating to see a stock up 156% but so difficult to trade.
For those of you streaming on Facebook, you can see my PNL right here, $1,491.07. I started the morning with $72,826. This is down a little bit off my high of the month, which was $77,000. It puts me … I guess I'll open tomorrow around $74,000 whatever, and I'm up about $66,000 on the month of February and $108,000 on the year. It's been a really good year. We're only two months in and it's already up over $100,000. That's fantastic. The small account challenge is doing great. Start with $583, I'm in the 70s now, but still have my sights set on hitting 100 grand. $100,000 is my target. It's something that I hope I'll be able to get to by the end of March, that would pretty much require me to make about $25,000 in March, which given the $40,000 in January, and the $66,000 here in February, that shouldn't be a stretch. We'll just kind of see what the opportunities look like. Thursday was not very good. Friday was not very good and today was not very good.
We've sort of seen three back to back days where the market's been a little bit choppy. One of the things that I wanted to do this week was to trade primarily five minute set ups because the quality is better. But, having said that, on HTGM by the time we got this five minute set up here, I thought it hadn't pulled back enough given how extended it was and I was annoyed that I had missed the move from 170, which I was watching at 170, but I said, "Well, it's not a clean five minute set up so I'm not gonna take it." I wait on that five minute set up, and instead I end up missing the whole move. Hang on one second, I'm just gonna go ahead and ban this guy from the chatroom. So you are out of the room. Sorry buddy. That happens. It's part of the deal with having 2,000 traders in the room, not everyone wants to follow the rules. So he's out of there. I'm sure Mike will keep an eye on the chat.
In any case, missed a good set up here, 167, 170. I just thought it would be better to wait for a five minute pull back and in this case you kind of realize that the one minute set ups work, you just have to make sure that there's enough volume and even in this place, there wasn't a lot of volume. I waited, next thing you know, it squeezes up to 270. The day I decide to wait on a good set up and wait for the five minute set up, the one minutes are running. [inaudible 00:04:31] irritating. I tried to trade through this pull back here, all of the sudden we got this one squeeze and this one candle, some short covering from 280 up to 347. Tried to scalp in this area, didn't get good follow through. Overall, just kind of not an easy one to trade. We see that sometimes, we see stocks that go from literally $2 to $8, or $8 to $16 like DRYS did on that one day, but it's not in a way that's clean. It's not in a way that's easy to trade and as a result, we're not able to capitalize on the move.
The good thing is that we have enough good opportunities each day that those will make up for the ones that are tricky. So just have to try to fight that fear of missing out and not get too aggressive on it. That was HTGM, IDXG, this was my first trade right out of the gate. I got into this one for a break of $3, for the gap and go set up we squeezed up a high of $3.25, which was awesome but we obviously weren't able to hold that level. There was some heavy sellers out there at $.25. I sold in this candle here where we spiked up to $.25, and then as we came back down that's when I was selling. IDXG, not bad, but didn't hold the way I wanted it to. JAGX, it took a stab on this one. We didn't see good follow through on this one either, got in it for $1.40, popped up to $.44, got out at $1.39. I lost a cent. One penny on 5,000 shares. Small loss on that one. NOVN, this one I took a five minute set up on, I waited for the five minute chart to form, and got in at $5.40, we got to move up at $5.75 and then all the way up to almost to $6, $5.94. That was decent.
That's kind of what I wanted HTGM to do, to give me more of a clean five minute opportunity where I could really look at it, where I could analyze risk, and then take my position, but it ran without me. That's what sometimes happens. But on this one, only $564. I didn't take big size, the volume was so light on it. Then it took on LJPC, it took a reversal trade. This one, let's see, was a little tricky. I had to take two stabs at it before I got my winner. My first stab was short at $34, and that was right in this candle here. I was anticipating as we dropped down to a low of $33.92, I was anticipating on that candle at $10.04 that we would break the low of the previous candle, which was $33.98, or $33.88 and then we would come back down towards $33. Didn't happen, got stopped out. It popped back up, it goes up to a high of $35.14, and then that's when I decide to short it again and covered on this move back down. I had one loser, one winner, only made $50 between the two, wasn't trading with big size, just kind of testing the waters with some reversal opportunities and on that one, it just didn't end up being the biggest winners. Pretty strong stock.
You do have to be careful fighting the momentum, trying to trade against the trend but at the same time, you have five, six, seven, eight consecutive green candles, it's to a point where the first one that goes red should give you a good opportunity. I just got in a little early anticipating it in that on this one didn't work, but then it did work on the second try. [inaudible 00:08:29] on that one. VRAY, this one was the stock that spiked up and was halted, some FDA news on this one. I scalped it, but lost $12. It ended up not being an easy one to trade, but again, small losses. Any day you can break $1,000 is a good day. $1,400, $1,500 for me today is decent. I would've liked to have a had a $3, $4,000 day but I'll take the gains that I got.
That's kind of where I'm finishing here on Monday. I'm happy to break my two day red streak that I had from Thursday and Friday. I'm green, that's a nice way to start the week, hopefully we've got some good momentum. Tomorrow, we can finish the month strong and then go into the first couple days of March and start to build that cushion. That's what it will be, working on building the cushion and then once I have the cushion, I can be a little more aggressive. Right now I'm up $66,000 on the month, so even the last couple of weeks I've been able to afford to take bigger risks knowing that even if I do lose a little, I've got such a big cushion on the month it's not gonna be that big of a deal. And then of course, when those trades end up working, I have back to back $8,000 days like I did two weeks ago.
Last week, I made $5,000, the week before I made around $20,000, maybe right around 20. The week before that it was $5,000, the week before that it was $37,000. It's like either I step up to the plate or I step up to the plate and I only get a base hit, but you know. A base hit is better than striking out. That's kind of the goal for the day and for the week, that I can finish each week green and just continue to make steady progress. I don't think I've had a red week so far this year. Even though I had a day where I lost $13,000, I don't think I've had a red day. Or sorry, a red week, which is good. That would be ideal to not have one. I didn't have any red months in 2016, hopefully I won't this year either.
Yeah, Keith, obviously this is income so I'll pay tax on it April of 2018. I'll pay my income tax on the gains and that's just part of the deal. You're making money so … If you're making money you do have to pay your tax but it's just like any other business. The good news about trading is that the overhead is so minimal, a lot of other businesses you've got a lot of overhead, your margins shrink because you know you will still have taxes, but with trading your overhead is so minimal. It's a good computer, internet connection, a couple of subscriptions, chat rooms, some tools, stuff like that then you're in great shape. Yeah Jamie, that's correct.
All right, so in any case I'm gonna post this on Facebook. You guys can feel free to comment over there and I'll also upload to YouTube. You guys can comment, I'll make sure I answer any questions you guys post. All right guys. Great job this morning, hopefully if you're gonna trade through the afternoon you trade smart, don't get too aggressive and we'll be back first thing tomorrow morning. All right, thanks guys.

Archer brothers
The Archer brothers were among the earliest European settlers in Queensland. They were explorers and pastoralists. Seven sons of William Archer, a Scottish timber merchant, they spent varying amounts of time in the colony of New South Wales, mainly in parts of what later became Queensland.[1] A substantial number of locations in Queensland were either named by or for them. They were, in order of birth:

Brisbane River valleyEdit
The first of the Archer brothers to settle in Australia was David, who arrived in Sydney in 1834. He was joined by William and Thomas in 1838. Together, they planned to seek pastoral land on the Darling Downs. Delays meant they would be too late to secure good land, so this venture did not proceed. In 1841 David and Thomas, joined by their brother John, travelled to the upper reaches of the Stanley River, an eastern tributary of the Brisbane River. There, near present-day Woodford, they established Durundur Station,[1] a holding of 200 square miles (520 km2), which is equal to 128,000 acres (51,800 ha).[4] Durundur is an aboriginal name for the Moreton Bay Ash (Eucalyptus tessellaris)[5] The Archer name is seen in the main street of Woodford, and in Mount Archer about 12 km (7 mi) to the west.
Charles Archer arrived in Australia in 1841, and joined his brothers at Durundur in 1843. He was accompanied by the explorer Ludwig Leichhardt, who stayed at Durundur for several months until early 1844. The country at Durundur proved unsuitable for sheep, leading the brothers to take up two runs further west in 1845.[6] One of these was Cooyar, a holding of 71,660 acres (29,000 ha)[4] on Cooyar Creek, a western tributary of the Brisbane River, near present-day Cooyar, 90 kilometres (56 mi) north of Toowoomba, on the New England Highway. The other was Emu Creek, a holding of 32,000 acres (12,950 ha)[4] on Emu Creek, another western tributary of the Brisbane River.[2]
Burnett regionEdit
In 1847, Thomas Archer travelled west to the area called Fitzroy Downs by the explorer Thomas Mitchell, near present-day Roma, but did not take up any land. In 1848 he travelled north to the Burnett region, which led to two runs being taken up on the Burnett River in the names of David and Thomas Archer. One of these was named Eidsvold, after Eidsvoll, Norway, where the Archer family had land holdings. The present day town of Eidsvold was named for the nearby property.[6] The other, named Coonambula, was south of Eidsvold on St John Creek, a tributary of the Burnett River.
Near the site of Eidsvold Station is present day Tolderodden Conservation Park.[7] The Archer connection to this name lies in the fact that Colin Archer was born in a house named Tollerodden, in Norway.[8]
Although not on the Burnett River, Maryborough was the main port for the Burnett region, particularly for the export of wool. One of the houses of St Mary's College, Maryborough is named Archer in honour of the contribution of the pioneering family to the Burnett region.
Fitzroy RiverEdit
In 1853, Charles and William Archer were the first Europeans to explore the Fitzroy River, which they named in honour of Sir Charles FitzRoy, Governor of the Colony of New South Wales. They explored the river valley and marked proposed boundaries for a new run before returning to the Burnett region.[9] In 1855 the brothers took up the run on the Fitzroy River, naming it Gracemere Station in honour of Thomas Archer's bride, Grace, whom he had married in Scotland in 1853.[6] Gracemere homestead was built in 1858, overlooking a shallow lagoon variously known as Padgole, Farris, and Gracemere. The present-day town of Gracemere was named for the station.
In 1860 Archibald Archer joined his brothers at Gracemere. At first both cattle and sheep were raised, but in the early 1870s the station switched entirely to cattle. The city of Rockhampton now stands on part of the original Gracemere run.
Mount Archer National Park is based on Mount Archer, near Rockhampton. The mountain was named in honour of Charles and William Archer, who had named the Berserker Range and Mount Sleipner (both names derived from Norse mythology) in 1853.[10]
Gracemere in Google MapsEdit
Google Maps shows the central point of Gracemere as near the intersection of Lawrie St (Gavial Gracemere Rd) and Platen St. About 1,000 metres to the north is the intersection of Capricorn Highway and Archer Rd. With satellite imaging enabled, a tree-lined drive can be observed opposite Archer Rd. This extends west for about 2,000 metres to the Gracemere homestead buildings, on the eastern shore of the lagoon.
Other detailsEdit
Archibald Archer was a member of the Queensland Legislative Assembly from 1867 to 1869, and from 1879 to 1895. He served as colonial treasurer and minister for education from 1882 to 1883.[2] He was a supporter of the movement to have Central Queensland declared a separate state. In 1870 he accepted the position of Agent-General for Queensland, but resigned when he realised that his plan to present a petition from the supporters of separation to the Colonial Office was inconsistent with his holding of that position.[2] He was replaced in early 1872 by Richard Daintree.
Thomas Archer was Agent-General for Queensland from 1881 to 1884 and from 1888 to 1890. He was appointed C.M.G. in 1884.[2] While serving as Agent-General he published pamphlets designed to foster interest in Queensland.
Colin Archer was the first to sail a vessel – Ellida, a ketch of about twelve tons – up the Fitzroy River to the present site of Rockhampton. He was met by Charles, riding his horse Sleipner, on 1 September 1855. This event is commemorated by a statue of horse and rider on the river bank in Rockhampton.[11][12] In later life he became a successful shipbuilder in Norway, where he built the Fram, the ship in which Fridtjof Nansen made the successful exploration of the North Polar Sea in 1893 – 1896.[2]

Viewers of the '70s detectives shows were watching Columbo, Kojak, Barney Miller, McMillan and were soon tempted by a new series: Ellery Queen.
Ellery Queen was a fictional character from a series of mystery novels created by Frederic Dannay and Manfred Bennington Lee.
This was a pseudonym for its creators: cousins Daniel Nathan (Dannay) and Emanuel Lepofsky (Lee).
Nathan and Lepofsky created Ellery Queen when they submitted their short story to a contest sponsored by McClure's Magazine.
Ellery Queen became the most popular character of the 1940s/1950s resulting in many spinoffs from the book series to radio, film and television.
In 1975, the made for television movie Ellery Queen debuted, also named Too Many Suspects, adapted from the mystery novel The Fourth Side of the Triangle, which with its favourable ratings led to a tv series.
Starring Jim Hutton and David Wayne, the series mirrored the books, with a young amateur detective/novelist Ellery Queen(Hutton) was attracted to solve mysteries with help from his gruff father, Inspector Richard Queen. (Wayne).
The duo also had assistance from the inspector's staff Sgt. Velie and Detective Simon Brimmer, reporter Frank Flanagan, Queen's secretary Grace and Flanagan's secretary Maggie.
What made the series unique was having Hutton break the fourth wall by asking the audience directly if they knew answers or clues, as they explored mysteries in post WWII New York City, an element that came from the books, which had asked readers to try to figure out the clues.
The series debuted on NBC TV in September 1975, and featured many well known guest stars through its first season including Roddy McDowell, Betty White, Don Ameche, Joan Collins, Bert Parks, Eva Gabor and Vincent Price.
But after a year (and 22 episodes) was cancelled. The series sadly didn't get the audience that had been its fans in the past, with a few critics finding the revelation of the mystery too old school.

Naidoo's comments were in regard to a biker who was shot and killed in Johannesburg during a road rage incident with a driver. Wheels24 reader GERT BOTHA shares his thoughts:"This journo cannot be allowed another chance on these platforms as he should have known who he represents. He actually placed a death wish on all he represents, and quite frankly, he only posted an apology to save his career – well, that would be over in any case as he would never be taken in the same light as the other journalists. These are the facts:1 Since the e-toll came about, and with the new hikes in petrol prices, I noticed a tremendous increase in road users reverting to two-wheel transport;2 As a fellow biker, working in the corporate world, I have learned not to judge, because the spectrum of bikers, have now spanned even further, from the old "bad" bikers, to doctors, Advocates, Bankers, IT developers etc, using bikes to families who started to use this as their only means of transport due to financial constraints;3 Our challenge now is going to be on how to educate these 'new bikers' on how to travel safely in peak traffic, and surely we do not need "hate speech" comments from the non-biking community, feuding further antagonism;4 I have been on both the receiving end of a biker driving into my vehicle due to another vehicle opening up their doors at the wrong place, and being bumped by motor vehicles whilst on my motorcycle;5 Journalists have to understand that the apparent once off incidents mostly happens due to the fact that a few events took place before that, and that a biker is so much more exposed. He is taking a risk, road users should not add to that risk, if they do not have the guts to ride bikes themselves, they should not attempt to intervene in a bikers route on the road, as the bikers just want to get past an carry on. They have no intention in having a wrestling match with a heavier vehicle. You should make this an example to other like-minded viewers of bikers as this can become a nasty trend."

Getting Fiction PublishedPublish Fiction
Increase the chances to publish your fiction story
The publication of your literature is different from the publication of non-fiction. Belletristic submissions (short stories or novels) must be a full script when you send them to a publishers. Generate a request form together with a Plot Synopse, which you can send in with your work. It is much more difficult to dispose of a work of fairy tale because most large publishers are hesitant to take a chance - to invest a lot of unused space of their own and perhaps not enough to make back what they have - on an intruder.
One look at the number of novels per year in comparison to non-fiction is enough - about 50,000 new non-fiction in comparison to only about 10,000 new novels. In the first place, your selling materials are your manuscripts that you have worked on. So if you are willing to mail your script to writers and/or operatives, create a short but convincing covering note that you can mail along with the first half of your novel.
This is a journey that leads two unlikely characters - a prisoner on the run and a female con... into a life you don't expect. "Or: "A father-son play that turns the Abraham/Isaac tale upside down. The best way to sell literature is to send in the whole script - but by invitation only.
When you are ready to send a novel to a publishing house without being asked, contact a few journalists and use an inquiry to get in the front doors. You will not be represented by an operative until she has finished a full work. It may, however, first ask for a summary and a model section to see if it is interested in the whole work.
Her action is a short storyline of your novel in the present - no more than one or two pages. It is the aim of a synopse of plots to arouse the interest of an operative so that he can see the work. Be sure it narrates the whole thing - for example, don't omit the end of the whole thing as a stick-in-the-mud to get the editors to ask for more.
They want to convey the essence of the storyline, not the description or the precise dialog, so make it as clear and concise as possible. Generate the syopsis as a whole, unitary part. In order to compile your abstract, begin with a few phrases that contain an action-packed abstract of the novel. Present the protagonist and the conflicts that are causing the development of the game.
For example, here is an action summary - as it would be appropriate for submitting - from Anita Shreveýs bestseller "The Pilot's Wife": Then, tell how the player intends to solve this dispute. Ages, profession, family situation, history (place) and times (past, present, future):
Now you' re willing to tell your own tale and concentrate on what happens. Do not forget to concentrate on what happens in the novel, which includes the motivating characters and emotions that drive the plot and give the plot a personal note. Just think of tell your tale to a group of your best friend. In this way you communicate the essence of the plot completely with excitement, speed and a sense of being.
Complet your summary and yet a fast reading that will stand on its own. This is the most efficient summary that gives the impression of having studied the whole work. It is of course not possible to tell from a particular section or even the first sections whether an unfamiliar author can stage the important fictional aspects - characters, story, dialogue, tempo, attitude and point of views.
This is why writers find that fictional entries for a summary or example chapter are not sufficient to show that the author is able to implement what he promises. It is therefore important that you review and review your complete novel before you submit it for publishing.

Our Team
A greater awareness of the therapies now available for pelvic floor dysfunction has increased demand for specialized imaging of this region. Some of the techniques required are available at relatively few centers.
Our medical center Centre d'Imagerie Médicale Juras, is one of the best equipped in Paris, with a variety of diagnostic equipment at the cutting edge of technology. Over the years, this Center has developed its own technological park. Our objective, in building such an advanced technological park onsite, is to allow our radiologists to push further the medical investigations of our patients, without having to refer them elsewhere.
Half of our radiologists practice tests and procedures used to diagnose breast cancer including: breast exam, mammogram, breast ultrasound, removing breast cells for testing (biopsy) and the breast magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).
Some doctors in our Center (Jean Juras, Mathias Lipski, Stefan Octernaud, Marie Hélène Caraco, Hélène Berment), are more specialized in pelvic floor investigations including: dynamic cystoproctography, dynamic MR imaging of the pelvic floor, ultrasonography and urodynamics.
Physiotherapists, Osteopaths, Fitness Instructors is a team of French experts working together in Paris to bring you the best and most advanced treatments for yourself, on a variety of conditions related to Pelvic Floor Disorders.
We always work closely with other health care providers in order to decide on the best course of action and plan a unique program tailored to your condition, your abilities and your goals.
Surgical intervention is required when conservative treatment has no result. In that case, if we refer you to a specialized surgeon, it does not necessarily mean you have a challenging case to treat! It simply means there is a specialized surgeon in urology, urogynecology and coloproctology who can better treat your

"There's a fine line between genius and insanity…" – Oscar Levant
Psychologists have discovered that creative people have a gene in common (called neuregulin 1) which is also linked to psychosis and depression. I've always loved this quote and wholeheartedly believed it to be true, now scientists are providing proof! I found this interesting and wanted to share because I think this applies to a lot of people, probably some that you yourself know, maybe even you!
When I was in grade school, I already had the IQ of an adult, when I got older older, it was at a steady 136-137, just short of the required 140 for Mensa, a group I desperately wanted to be a part of. Why you ask? A couple of different reasons really. The main one being because I know I'm extremely intelligent, but nobody seems to want to take me seriously because… I have a southern accent? I don't have a slew of degrees? I'm female and put being a mother first? I really don't know why someone would look down on me, just assume that I lack in the cerebrum area, but I run into it a lot and it really ticks me off! I don't want to continually justify what rattles around in my noggin, while others are treated like gold drips off their tongue every time they open their mouth, so it would be a much desired affirmation for me. The other reason was purely selfish, I WANTED IN! I became like a dog with a bone, testing my IQ over and over again because I wanted to belong with this elite group of individuals, be accepted into something special, I guess kind of like wanting to pledge to a sorority. I still want it, but I've accepted that I'm just not Mensa material and I've stopped trying, (I never took the official Mensa test because you only get one shot at it), but now on the other side of the coin, I truly enjoy my quirkiness. I make people laugh and think and feel something deep down inside. All my life I've heard "You're weird, you're crazy" and my all time favorite, "You just ain't right!" I like that I'm different, that I'm truly an individual with divergent ideas. People need to realize that different isn't bad, it isn't wrong, it's just, well, different! One of my favorite sayings is "If we were all the same, what a boring world this would be!" and I'm anything but dull, (unless I'm on my best behavior and not being the real me, now THAT'S boring). I have bad days, when it's hard to live inside of my own skin, like when I get really tired and my thoughts get wonky. My mind doesn't say sleep, it says give up, give in, just let go and this isn't mentally or emotionally healthy, but I slog my way through it and eventually it does get better. Sleep, water (I consume way too much caffeine in lieu of this) and positive mental stimulation helps tremendously. Anger is a great motivator, but it burns up your reserves too quickly and then you crash, HARD, it's kind of like a sugar rush. If you ever find me just sitting in the shower until the water runs cold, then you know that something isn't right in my inner world. I don't know why being pelted with a continual deluge of warm spray helps, but it does, it makes me feel a little better. So anyway, the next time someone tells you that you're different or odd, say "Thank you!" and know that you're probably 10x smarter than they are!

CAESAR'S COMMENTARIES of THE CIVIL WAR.
CAESAR'S COMMENTARIES of THE CIVIL WAR.
Caesar, the more effectually to shut up Pompey's horse at Dyrrhachium, and hinder them from foraging, blocked up the two narrow passes, of which we have spoken, with strong works, and raised forts to defend them. Pompey finding his cavalry rendered by this means unserviceable, conveyed them some days after by sea to his camp again. Forage was so scarce, that they were forced to have recourse to the leaves of trees, and the roots of green reeds, bruised; for the corn sown within their lines was all consumed; nor had they had any supplies but what came a long way about by sea, from Corcyra and Acarnania; and even this was so inconsiderable, that to increase the quantity, they were forced to mix it with barley, and by these contrivances support their horses. At last, all expedients being exhausted, and the horses dying daily, Pompey thought it time to attempt to force the barricade, and set himself at liberty.

Programme | Conference Committees | Registration | Sponsors |
The 4th International Conference on Science and Engineering in Arts, Heritage and Archaeology (SEAHA) was hosted by the Institute for Sustainable Heritage, University College London, Woburn House, 4-6 June 2018,
In conjunction with the conference, SEAHA collaborated with ICOM-CC in the organizing of a roundtable for emerging professionals on 6 June 2018
SEAHA conference series aims to engage with high-quality interdisciplinary scientific research of cultural heritage. Based on the success of the past three events, the series established a platform for open dialogue between academics, professionals, practitioners, entrepreneurs and policy-makers from around the globe.
The 4th SEAHA conference continued to examine the opportunities and challenges confronting heritage science. In doing so, we hoped to showcase collaboration with industry at this conference in particular. A recurring theme was that while the strength of the field of heritage science increases, broadening and deepening scientific research by optimising resources and technology improves public benefit and participation.

All signs point to the end of the LTACH moratorium this September.
LTACH development and expansion was halted in 2007 by the enactment of MMSEA, with a subsequent extension that will finally sunset on September 30, 2017. Advis is anticipating the likely resurgence of this important provider venue. In addition to serving the acute patient population in need of extended inpatient care, LTACH's play a vital role in a short-term acute-care hospital's continuum of care: LTACHs stem losses due to extended lengths of stay and increased patient acuity.
Now is the time to assess the appropriate size for a possible LTACH expansion. Can your program benefit from an additional 10 or 20 beds? Which model is the most effective for your organization, HwH or freestanding?
Do not wait until the Fall to conduct feasibility studies and develop an expansion strategy. Such action can take months to conduct and conclude. Use this time to establish a strategy which allows for board review and approval processes to permit development projects to start immediately upon the moratorium's end. Utilize this time to determine a plan for expansion of your current bed complement, to introduce a new location or satellite, or to add a new LTACH to your care continuum.
Advis will continue to monitor and provide updates regarding the LTACH moratorium and its anticipated sunset. Visit our LTACH information center or contact a consultant today at 708-478-7030 with any questions or for assistance with your feasibility or planning needs.

"Careers are tricky," ex-actress Sarah Gellar recently said. "If you have a linear focus, you'll never see what else is out there." (She now owns a food company.)
We AOB-Bangladesh workers have discovered the same truth. Linear focus is limited focus. Many of us prepared, trained, and came to accomplish a specific project within a particular program. Then God opened our eyes to see a far bigger picture. We step into new territory when God invites us to come:
During Bangladesh's War for Independence, recently widowed women and their children came to MCH for refuge and healing... God's plans were better. One of MCH's nurses saw their need for employment, and she established Heart House Handicrafts. That project perfectly fits into our government-approved program of Income Generation. Widows and physically challenged craftsmen and tailors receive skills-training and joyful employment.
When one of Memorial Christian Hospital's nurses was sick in bed, she requested Bangla-language books so she could read them and practice her Bangla skills. Few Christian books were found. That disappointment guided her to establish AOB's Literature Division, which still produces and markets a wide range of quality books for Bengali readers.
By the way, the Bangladeshi manager of Literature Division zealously read and marketed books, yet he wanted more training. He gained his doctorate in theology, and has established a Bible college, seminary, and children's school.
As another branch of AOB's Media Production program, MCH's orthopedic doctor and his artistic wife established MCH's Health-and-Hope audio-visual department. Now captivating informational videos are showing on the hospital wards and beyond.
One of our Bangladeshi audio-visual men showed Health-and-Hope videos in poor communities, but when people questioned him about the health teaching, he needed more answers. He gladly received training as a community-health-worker.
Another nurse read the high-literary-Bangla Scriptures to a Christian women's group, but few of them understood it. She realized the Scriptures should be in the common language. Receiving her doctorate, not in medicine but in linguistics, she gathered a team of translators and working with Bangladesh Bible Society produced the Common Language Bangla Bible.
As MCH's laboratory supervisor directed seminars and camps, he saw the need for a permanent, government approved child-and-community-development program. He established just that.
MCH's nurse-anesthetist saw that poor, illiterate communities lacked health teaching and health care. She established AOB's Community-Health-Workers training and program. She also noticed malnourished patients coming to MCH, so she received agriculture training and established our agriculture program.
Still more exciting stories could be told. As one woman once says, "Our lives should be interruptible, when God wants to change the direction." We keep our eyes open. Step by step He leads us. We're privileged to join our Provider God in meeting needs, and He meets our needs in the process.

I have one extra copy of Windows XP Professional OS software that I received at a Microsoft launch event. I would like to trade for a bunch of NIW USGI 30 or 20 round mags, of equivalent value.
This is the full Professional version of Windows XP, not the upgrade or the Home version. The CD is packaged in a plastic and cloth sleeve, factory sealed inside a plastic wrapper. No manual or box was included with the CD, but you shouldn't need much instructions anyway since the installation is virtually automatic. The CD has the genuine Microsoft hologram on the surface, as well as the unique product key on the back. It is labeled "not for OEM or RETAIL distribution", so that's why I'm trading it. I have another copy from the launch event that I have installed on my computer. It installs and works perfectly. If you want, I can dig through my stuff and find you the official Microsoft T-shirt that came with it. Please email with mag offers or questions. Thanks.
I would like to get 4 NIW 30-rd USGI mags. Thanks for looking.
I'll give you one 20 rounder with a rusty spring, a 30 rounder with 20% finish and a thermold(or is it an orlite?) with some pretty shady feed lips. I'll also toss in alot of stripper clips and a adapter.
Does it have publisher in it? email me a list of programs contained, I have mags.
