This is the second "Living the Dream Story" which shares stories of 'ordinary' people following and living their passion.
I thank Celia Boyd for sharing some of her story with me as a tool for inspiring others to live their dream.
As the Co-Founder of She Investments, Celia left Melbourne in late-2014 and is currently living and working in Cambodia with her partner James. Through the choices she has made Celia's is living both her passions and her values while delivering a unique and much-needed business service for women in Cambodia.
This week I spoke with Celia to hear more of her story and the amazing pilot program they are planning (and have now started) in Cambodia as a result of their very successful Crowd Funding campaign.
In March Celia and her partner James launched their Crowd Funding campaign through Start Some Good. Their Goal was to raise $15,000 with a tipping point of $7,000 – such is the success of their campaign, they reached their tipping point on the first day.
Crowd funding is the perfect example of people investing in the "WHY" of individuals and their business plans.
In 2013 I was very grateful for the 94 people who invested in Soles4Souls Australia and our Crowd Funding campaign. Ninety four wonderful people who connected with WHY.
Want to know more about "WHY"? If you haven't seen it, make sure you watch the TED Talk: Simon Sinek: How great leaders inspire action (aka: people don't buy what you do, they buy "WHY" you do it).
As at today there is just four days available for people to invest in women through the She Investments pilot program and ensure the final $s are achieved to cover all the expenses involved in running a 12-month pilot program in Cambodia. They are so almost there!
This pilot program is a business incubator for women entrepreneurs in Cambodia to support them in creating social and economic impact by providing support structures and business incubator programs to help women entrepreneurs scale their micro businesses to profitable and sustainable small–medium enterprises (SMEs).
The business model of She Investments is innovative in its nature with nothing of its kind currently in Cambodia.
Read startsomegood.com/sheinvestments for full pilot details.
I asked Celia 9 questions about her journey and about the success of the Crowd Funding campaign. I hope you enjoy the story.
What has been your journey from school to now?
I am 28 now. I went straight to uni from school because I thought it was "expected", and I did a bachelor of Communications.
At the time I thought I wanted to work in film and tv and before I finished my degree I was working at Channel 10.
Eventually realised I hated working in tv.
I wasn't passionate about it at all!
During this time I also did a volunteer trip for a couple months in the Philippines with Australian Volunteers International and shortly afterwards went to Kenya with my partner James, volunteering with World Youth International.
When I returned to Australia I kept doing similar trips to places like India and Kenya, and eventually trained as a Team Leader with World Youth.
I went back to UNI to do my Masters in Community and International Development and continued to travel and volunteer to 'get it out of my system'. I also worked with Oaktree Foundation working as the PNG Country Director. It was terrifying but massive for my self-confidence and professional portfolio.
After my Masters I secured a six month project management position in Kenya with World Youth International, helping them to create a plan and implementation of their community health project.
Following Kenya I was home in Melbourne and unemployed for 3 or 4 months before being offered a job with World Youth International managing their projects in Kenya.
In early 2013 the idea for She Investments started to grow.
In the past I thought all I wanted was a stable job, but what I realised while balancing working for WYI, doing the incubator programs and growing She Investments, was that I loved the flexibility. I discovered a lifestyle I didn't know I would love.
I was working independently. Autonomously. Making my own decisions.
How long have you been working on She Investments?
It has been 2 years since initial research and planning began. I did two training programs last year at the same time.
I did the Young Social Pioneers 12 month program for people aged 18-30 and the Incubator Program by the School of Social Entrepreneurs for 9 months.
It's a good thing to invest in yourself.
What have been your biggest learnings on your journey so far?
- If you believe in something, people will believe in you. I was surprised by how many people backed us from initially having an idea to moving to Cambodia.
- Do your research. Our business model is completely different from 1 or 2 years ago. We have learnt so much.
- Doing a pilot is so important – I never realised how important it is.
What's your BIG WHY?
It changes every year!
It used to more focused on social justice: "These things are happening in the world and if you see something that is unacceptable, then you have to refuse to accept it".
Over the past couple of years I've graduated to a much more focused WHY, which is more personal.
With She Investments I am not only working on a project that will help people out of poverty but it is the most focused and deepest impact / difference I think can be made which is also in line with my passion and values.
I care deeply about the injustice of poverty, however my personal passion and WHY is specifically focused on the eradication of gender inequality, as I personally believe that this is the root of so much poverty and injustice.
What have been some of your biggest obstacles?
Money! I am very lucky to be able to live remotely so I can still earn an income, but that only covers the basics.We had to invest so much of ourselves and our own moneyIn making this decision it's been a bit of a battle financially. Doing the crowd funding is the only thing we can do to make our pilot possible.
Big Decisions: After money it was making the decision to do it. It took us six months to actually make the decision. It was such a big risk and we had a lot of sacrifices we had to make.Making the decision for James to sell his Physio business, the only asset he had, and to give up that career and secure future to risk everything and move overseas.We needed the self-confidence and willingness to take the risk.
Why do you think your crowd funding has been so successful?
- Choosing the right platform. Start Some Good offers good support and has the highest success rate of any of the crowd funding sites. It also offers the urgency of the tipping point but the benefit of keeping the funds after the tipping point.
- Planning before what we needed to do in the build-up and during the campaign
- Understanding what the indicators are of a good campaign
- Making sure we started really strong
How did you fund your dream?
Running our crowdfunding campaign and working part-time in paid jobs.
What is your biggest goal?
I want She to be a really awesome, innovative and inspiring business that is not just self-sustaining BUT thriving and growing.
I want it to be scalable. We have so many things we want to do under the She banner. One day I want it to be a bigger banner. Not just in Cambodia but globally.
Not reliant on fundraising and volunteers, but profitable and sustainable.
I want it to be a really good example that can make awesome social impact in an innovative way.
What is a normal week for you now?
I work two days per week for World Youth International managing their projects in Kenya which I do from a co-working space in Cambodia.
The other three days I work on She Investments from another co-working space. I am constantly going out for meetings and meeting and interviewing participants.
We also travel to Siem Reap every month for programs.
During my Skype interview with Celia this week three very important messages came through about the value of living your dream and following your passions:
"I am happier than I have been in such a long time."
"If you have something you are so happy to get out of bed and do every day, you should do that."
"I have never put so much of myself into anything. I love going to work every day."

Ohinemuri Regional History Journal 19, June 1975
By T.C. (Ena) Buchanan
From the time the 1200 enrolments were received and the welcoming informal session of afternoon tea on Friday, 27. Feb. it was evident that each following function of the Paeroa Central School Centenary would be well patronised. Ex-pupils and teachers came from Australia and Fiji, and from Awanui in the north to Invercargill in the far south to attend the first centenary, and Mrs Gaylene Cleave was a wonderful Secretary.
The wine-and-cheese evening on Friday night was held outdoors, with coloured lights overhead and groups of tables set about on the tar-sealed area between the school buildings, which made an ideal spot for such a special occasion. "Do you remember when?" "I wonder what happened to!" "You haven't changed a 'bit!" prefaced almost every conversation and the crowd lingered on, well past the official closing time.
Saturday dawned with an overcast sky and later rain delayed the official opening of the celebrations. With the ringing of the school bell, by Fred Douglas, one of the oldest ex-pupils, (he started in 1896), the assembly of ex-teachers and pupils were called together for the official opening. Other very old pupils were, Mrs Louisa Innes (nee Adamson) 1885 and Mrs Jessie Lowry (nee Forrest). Some families were particularly well represented, e.g. seven of the nine members of the Buchanan family were present.
Forming into their decades and headed by the pupils of the period (1875-1904), behind the banner held by Joe Walmsley, they marched from the school grounds down the street as far as the Band Hall, and returned to the school, as light rain began falling.
Addressing the assembled gathering, Mr G. Vuglar, Chairman of the Centennial Committee, welcomed the ex-pupils and teachers who now lived away from the town, back to Paeroa and the school. He particularly welcomed Miss Marjorie Patterson, a teacher at the school for many years. Other speakers were the Mayor, Mr G. Lee, the M.P. for Coromandel, Mr L. Schultz, and the present principal, Mr T. Barrett. The Chairman of the School Committee, Mr G. Buchanan, suitably replied. When the rain eased, the centennial cake, a replica of the main school building, was cut by three pupils of the first decade, Mrs Ida Gerrand (nee Robson) Mrs Jessie Lowry. (nee Forrest) and Mr Fielden Thorp. The cake was iced by Mrs Coralie Greenhaigh (nee Ziegler), a former pupil and now of Rotorua.
On Saturday evening over 600 sat down to dinner in the Paeroa College Assembly Hall and a huge marquee, erected in the College grounds. The guest speaker was a distinguished "old boy", Brigadier Jack Connolly, B.Sc. D.S.O. E.D., who began his teaching career at Paeroa Central School. "Those who were older had seen many changes," he said. "The fires of temptation burn more freely today so that the weak fall more easily, but the strong become stronger. While the influence of a good home is the most important factor during the impressive years," Brigadier Connolly continued, "Primary school comes a close second." Another eloquent speaker was Mr C.W. Malcolm. B.A., a past pupil who had also taught at the school for many years. The evening concluded in the Memorial Hall where hundreds of dancers continued the celebrations.
The Sunday morning combined church service was held in the Domain in brilliant sunshine which lit up the scene to the best effect. Music was provided by the Salvation Army Band of Te Aroha, and the United States Ambassador to New Zealand read the lesson. Local ministers who took part in the service were Archdeacon M. Richards, Rev Brian Weston and Rev John Watson.
After the service the ex-teachers and pupils adjourned to the school to have their photographs taken in decades and it was interesting to note generations of pioneer families, even the first Headmaster, Mr John Ritchie, being represented by his grand-daughter, Jessie Ellis.
This concluded the Paeroa School Centenary celebrations and a very happy weekend, long to be remembered.
(Note: The early history of the school has been recorded in previous Journals and a comprehensive illustrated booklet is being edited by Mrs Elsie Wylde.) Ed.

It will be nothing short of exceptional if India upstage Australia, feels captain Mithali Raj, who reckons her team will have the "home advantage" in the ICC women's World Cup semifinal here tomorrow.
It will be nothing short of exceptional if India upstage Australia, feels captain Mithali Raj, who reckons her team will have the "home advantage" in the ICC women's World Cup semifinal here tomorrow. "We've played a lot of the group stage here, four games, so we are aware of the conditions and that is our advantage," she said ahead of the match. "But Australia is a very good side. They won the last edition of this tournament and they have a lot of players who have played in high-pressure games," she added.
Mithali has been in fine form with the bat, scoring 356 runs in seven innings and becoming the first woman to surpass 6,000 runs in one-day cricket in the process. She scored 69 in defeat to the Australians earlier in the competition but feels that counts for nothing when India meet the reigning world champions.
"It's all about how the teams respond to the situation and the conditions on the day," she said.
"How the players play the situation is important because having said that Derby is our home ground, you need to perform on that day to win. "But for this Indian team, it is going to be a big game and if we can pull out one win, it will be exceptional by the team," she added.
Australia's Nicole Bolton, who has scored 337 runs at 56.16 in the tournament thus far, is confident her team can adapt quickly to conditions and book a place in the final to be played at Lord's. "We'll make sure we're really clear what our plans are. On any given day, it's irrelevant where we play, if we play our best cricket hopefully we'll win the match," she said.

"India have played a couple of matches at Derby as well so they'll be pretty familiar with the conditions as well. We can't afford to be off our game, as you have seen throughout the tournament, if you have an off day the other team can get a big jump on you," she added. "We'll have to do a bit of homework, look at the conditions and see what Derby has to offer because I think India will come out and really take it to us."

"It is often questioned whether one person alone can transform the whole system. In reality, just one person can transform and create change. Of course, team effort makes the change possible. Yet, the whole process of change begins with that one person who created the change — THE TRANSFORMATIONAL LEADER." Chanakya, 4th BCE
Polymath - A person of great or varied learning.
Philomath - A person who enjoys and has passion for learning new facts and acquiring new knowledge.
I chose the quote from Chanakya as it speaks to how I conduct myself. True transformation can only be achieved by leaders who marry the rational (head) with the irrational (heart) to produce a brand of emotional leadership that speaks to his or her followers.
My light is my curiosity; through this, I have developed several core skills that make me a versatile polymath. I also firmly believe that my achievements all stem from my sheer joy of learning new things, hence I see myself as an undying philomath.
This stand is what drives me as a people developer. My natural curiosity about the world extends to the people within it, and I endeavour to find out as much about them as possible. I believe in leading from within, and hence seek to empower my co-workers to do the best they can. I always aim to leave people better off than before we met.
5 lessons I have learnt:
I draw inspiration from one of Singapore's founding fathers, Dr Goh Keng Swee. He was the original economic architect of Singapore, and founded many institutions in Singapore, such as the Economic Development Board, the Singapore Zoological Gardens and the Jurong Bird Park. He cajoles us in this quotation not to indulge in analysis paralysis.
My innovation philosophy is therefore to:
Think Big;
Test Small;
Fail Fast;
Learn Quickly;
Repeat and Accelerate.
I am a polyglot. I speak, read and write English,Tamil and German fluently. I also speak Telugu (my mother toungue) and a dash of Mandarin and Italian. Hindi is my next mountain to conquer.
I am a multi-instrumentalist. I play the
South Indian Classical (Carnatic) violin, viola, mandolin, and thavil drum. The next instrument I want to pick up is the bass guitar.
I am a bookworm. My favourite genre is non-fiction. See some of the books that have made an impression on me here.

Capital is an important measurement of an institution's financial resilience. It acts as a cushion against losses and provides protection for depositors during times of economic instability for the bank. From a safety and soundness perspective, the more capital, the better.
On our test to measure capital adequacy, Citizens First State Bank of Walnut received a score of 6 out of a possible 30 points, failing to reach the national average of 13.13.
A bank's Tier 1 capital ratio is an essential measure of this buffer. Citizens First State Bank of Walnut's Tier 1 capital ratio was 16.82 percent, exceeding the 6 percent level regulators consider adequate, but lower than the national average of 25.65 percent. A higher capital ratio suggests the bank will be better able to stand up to financial difficulties.
Overall, Citizens First State Bank of Walnut held equity amounting to 7.66 percent of its assets, which was lower than the national average of 12.03 percent.
This test's purpose is to estimate how the bank's loan loss reserves and overall capitalization could be affected by troubled assets, such as past-due loans.
Having a large number of these kinds of assets could eventually force a bank to use capital to cover losses, shrinking its buffer of equity. It also means that there are likely to be many assets that are in non-accrual status and thus aren't earning interest for the bank, resulting in depressed earnings and potentially more risk of a future failure.
On Bankrate's test of asset quality, Citizens First State Bank of Walnut scored 40 out of a possible 40 points, beating the national average of 37.49 points.
The percentage of problem assets a bank holds compared to its total assets is a useful indicator of asset quality.As of December 31, 2017, 0.32 percent of Citizens First State Bank of Walnut's loans were noncurrent -- in other words, they were more than 90 days past due or were in non-accrual status. That's below the national average of 1.01 percent.
Banks maintain a reserve to handle troubled assets known as an "allowance for loan and lease losses." The size of that reserve can be a useful indicator when evaluating a bank's ability to manage troubled assets, especially when compared to the total amount of at-risk loans. Unfortunately, the FDIC did not provide information on Citizens First State Bank of Walnut's loan loss allowance in its most recent filings.
A bank's ability to earn money has an effect on its long-term survivability. A bank can retain its earnings, boosting its capital cushion, or put them to work addressing problematic loans, likely making the bank better prepared to withstand financial shocks. Conversely, losses diminish a bank's ability to do those things.
Citizens First State Bank of Walnut underperformed the average on Bankrate's earnings test, achieving a score of 12 out of a possible 30.
Return on equity, calculated by dividing net income (essentially, profit) by the total amount of equity, is one widely used measure of a bank's earnings. The most recent annualized quarterly return on equity for Citizens First State Bank of Walnut was 5.62 percent, below the national average of 8.10 percent.
For the twelve months ended December 31, 2017, the bank recorded net income of $194,000 on total equity of $3.6 million. The bank experienced an annualized return on average assets, or ROA, of 0.41 percent, below the 1 percent deemed satisfactory in accordance with industry standards and below the average for U.S. banks of 1.00 percent.
Bankrate.com's Safe & Sound Ratings provide a star rating system to evaluate the current financial status of financial institutions. The information gathered about banks, credit unions and thrifts is updated as set forth in the Terms of Use of Safe & Sound Ratings and Reports. The Safe & Sound Ratings information is grouped by categories of banks, thrifts and credit unions.
Bankrate.com evaluates the financial condition of institutions and assigns a one- to five-star rating for each with five stars representing the highest rating. Institutions with satisfactory performance will generally receive a rating of three or more stars. The majority of institutions fall into the three- to four-star range. An institution with an "NR" rating may be too new to rate or may have limited the publicly available information in their regulatory filings. The "NR" is not an indication of financial strength or weakness. The Safe & Sound rating is believed to be reliable, but the information is not guaranteed. In addition, events since the information was collected may have altered the institution's financial condition.

Justin opens with 2 main arguments in favour of the religious sexual morality: abstinance and marriage.
"I would like to focus on what I take to be the most important: abstinence and marriage"My initial reaction is that even if I think that lifelong monogamy is a good thing (I will describe later examples when it isn't) that doesn't mean that marriage is necessary for monogamy. People can live together as a couple, raise a family and never split up, all without getting married. There is no need for the church, or the courts, to get together to introduce extra reasons (financial, social or legal) for two people who love each other to stay together and raise their children in a happy, loving home. Yet, even if these extra bonds from marriage increased the chances of a couple making it all the way it in no way invalidates the couples that don't get married. Which part of your morality or religion (the two are not synonymous, but that's another discussion) states that in a monogamous (but non-married), lifelong, child-brearing relationship "sex is ugly, and shameful"? Is there anyone out there who can seriously think that two people who have been together and with no-one else for 10 years having sex is "ugly, and shameful"? I'm sure they don't.
He then moves on to polygamy as an example why sex outside marriage is wrong, missing the point that polygamous people are married (he should really have chosen open relationships or promiscuous people.) I agree with him here that most human cultures have been polygamous, mainly when resources are scarce and women are not seen as equals. The biological reasons behind polygamy and the potentially violent and wasteful way it drives evolution, individuals and culture are completely irrelevant here as western culture, ouside of religion, has stopped viewing women as property or breeding stock and women are free to choose a man based on any criteria they choose.
Women do not select partners based on their genetic desires for good genes for their children. Couples have to get along socially and they have to be physically attracted. They do not, initially, care what this means for any potential offspring. Partners are chosen for themselves rather than their genetic potential. Wealth, stability, a sense of humour, a good body, nice eyes, kindness, a nice accent, beauty, intelligence, talent etc. these are all individual traits that make women fall in love with men, and vice-versa, and say very little about their genes.
The concept of an alpha male has been destroyed by our culture. We also do not try to breed with as many women as possible, having the most offspring is not what most males want, and women are more worried about the suitability of a man as a father rather than how 'good' his alpha male genes are. Also, the concept of alpha male spreading his genes is false, even the type of man that wants to sleep around generally has limits in terms of how good looking (or whatever his criteria is) a girl has to be, a true alpha male would be spreading his seed as wide as possible.
"Lifelong monogamy is an act of love."Monogamy tends to be forced on a lot of couples, either from social (children/parents) or religious pressure, or a lack of options. Also, still no mention of marriage. Monogomy is possible without marriage. To a casual reader this may seem pedantic, but this is abour Christian morals and the claim is that outside of a lifelong marriage "sex is ugly, and shameful." Has the position changed here? Is marriage not necessary, simply monogamy? Or is he simply choosing the narrow definition of monogamy? Either way I think this is completely wrong.
Lifelong monogamy within an unhappy marriage MUST be a bad thing. Surely if a couple are unhappy they should be allowed to separate and try again with someone else. Should an abused spouse be forced to stay with their abusive partner? Of course not. Lifelong monogamy inside an unhappy marriage is ONLY an act of love towards a particular religous view.
It is telling that Justin's opening statement was: "... what I take to be the most important: abstinence and marriage" and he is yet to put forward any sort of argument against pre-marital sex other than
"[sex is good].. only within the context of lifelong marriage. Otherwise sex is ugly, and shameful."Now, I don't know what kind of sex Justin is talking about but I have had many (not as many as I'd like!) consensual sexual encounters where neither partner felt dirty, ugly or shameful about what we'd just done. I do not engage in one night stands, but I don't see why people shouldn't if both parties are happy with it. Is it equally shameful if the couple are going to get married but want to see if they're sexually compatible before getting into legal and financial arrangements that are difficult to get out of? Is it wrong for young adults to explore themselves sexually before they are self aware enough to know exactly what they want in a long term partner and can then be confident and knowledgable when they are married? Is it wrong to engage in a mutually faithful relationship with someone for a while to see if you're meant to be together, including sexually, then split up if you're not fully compatible? You can use protection during that period, so no children, have an STD check before and after the relationship so there are no diseases being transmitted to anyone, once that is done where's the harm?
I don't want to make Justin's argument for him, but the only 'good' side of abstinence before marriage is that once married, regardless of how things are, they have no knowledge that it could be better so stay together longer. Ignorance is bliss, even when it's misery...

Donald Trump, Miss Universe, Russian Intel, and Collusion
Donald Trump and Controversies
Since Donald Trump first launched his Presidential Campaign in 2015, he has been surrounded by one controversy after another. So much so, that it has been difficult to write about all of Trump's issues for fear that more information or something even bigger might break overnight. This can be devastating for a featured writer or blogger, as this "wait & see game" eats up the one resource you can never replace – time itself.
Weeks back, in mid-May, I wrote a Blog post about "Firing FBI Director James Comey" and laid forth some of the details that were known at that time regarding the Russian Collusion investigation. In that article and the "Donald Trump Timeline," I mentioned a premise that I had come upon; a premise that seems to be echoed more and more as of late. As to the careful observer with any investigative skill or inquisitive mindset, it seems that all along Trump has purposefully utilized any and all controversies surrounding himself to his own advantage. Sort of like the Chaos Theory realized in modern-day politics, and quite inexplicable how it always seems to work in Trump's favor. My conclusion is that this is due to the sheer volume of controversial activities surrounding Trump.
Now it doesn't really help Trump when so many seemingly nefarious situations occur around him, as most would conclude that the high number of events shines a negative light on Trump's character and his associates. Yet, due to the sheer frequency of Trump Controversies, we have become accustomed to the daily barrage of negative press about him. I will also note, anecdotally, that the continual stream of negative press about Donald Trump in the mass media now is similar to what the Right-wing media did during President Obama's first term. This is a known tactic used by Big Money to alter public perception by disseminating misinformation – aka, fake news – as though it were true, often by misrepresenting the actual facts.
Thus, when it was Obama, FOX News went ballistic on him and his policies, as did various Right-Wing Social Media sites. Now that it is Trump in office, EVERY OTHER NEWS AGENCY IN AMERICA is shining a light on President Trump's Administration and his ascension to power. The sad reality is that the true News is very disheartening. The more we learn about the Russian meddling into our election, the more it ties directly to President Donald Trump.
Donald Trump, Jr.'s Unfortunate "20 Minute Meeting" with Multiple Russians
On June 7th, the final day of the Republican Primaries, Donald Trump Jr. solidified plans to meet with several Russians at Trump Tower in regard to "official Russian Government documents" regarding Hillary Clinton. This meeting happened 2 days later at Trump Tower in NYC, and the list of those in attendance has evolved over time to include several high-ranking and influential Russians (at least, the ones we know about currently).
Donald Trump, Jr. would later explain this to Sean Hannity on FOX News, stating that it was "a wasted 20 minutes, which was a shame" as, according to Donald Jr., the Russians did not deliver what they had promised. Yet, Donald Jr. had not disclosed anything about this meeting until he was forced to do so. He was coerced into releasing his emails ahead of a NY Times article that he learned was going to be printed regarding his communications with the Russians relating to the meeting on June 9th.
If the meeting that Donald Jr. had with the Russians was truly a big nothing burger, as the Trumps are all asserting (the President also chiming in to his son's defense already), then WHY WAIT TO DISCLOSE DETAILS ABOUT THIS MEETING UNTIL YOUR HAND IS FORCED? This ONLY SERVES to make YOU LOOK GUILTY. Plus, knowing how well educated Donald Jr. is, it is hard to believe he would be so stupid or careless. Though, President Trump also appears to use his aloofness to feign a lack of knowledge about things that you can almost be certain a Billionaire-Real-Estate-Tycoon would make sure he knew. (He was a highly successful businessman before becoming the President. Right?)
Controversies Create Confusion
Anyone who has read the Art of War should recognize the sleight of hand that comes from creating multiple commotions to breed mass confusion, while carrying out your true plans undetected. This isn't really Rocket Science, and anyone who watches Reality TV Shows could also learn this strategy.
I am starting to fully trust my initial hypothesis that President Trump would use controversies to his advantage as a part of his overall strategy. Mr. Trump knew there would be many controversies just due to the life he had lived, and so he planned well in advance how he would handle the flow of negative News. I propose that this is all part of his Master Plan, as crazy as that sounds. Only time will tell if my theory is accurate. (Well maybe. However, it is just as likely that we will never know all that President Trump had planned for his time in office, nor what he actually achieves behind-the-scenes while he is the President.)

UCRRA can offer technical guidance on how to improve your business recycling program. UCRRA Staff are available to help businesses plan, implement, or improve a waste reduction, recycling, or composting program. Contact the Recycling Coordinator at 845-336-0600 to learn more.
Tips for Better Recycling
- Recycling bins should be clearly labeled for employees and/or customers. If possible, color-code bins and use signs to identify the different bins and what materials can be recycled/composted/discarded. UCRRA offers free recycling/trash/compost stickers for businesses!
- Make sure recycling bins are always located directly next to trash bins.
- Keep a separate bin for deposit containers (water bottles, soda cans, etc) where employees have lunch or snacks. Use the funds from redemption or donate the funds to a local community group.
- Opt for reusable, durable supplies over disposable ones. Encourage employees to bring their own coffee mug. Offer condiments in bulk rather than individually-packaged.
- Use double-sided printing and copying as a default printer setting. Make sure there's a recycling bin next to the printer station!
- Circulate memos and documents instead of printing multiple copies.
- Use electronic data storage instead of paper files.

The Baumeister family (バウマイスター家 Baumaisutā-ke?) is a noble family that lives within the Walls. They associate themselves with other nobles and are no strangers to political trading, affairs, or interaction.
At least 50 years before the fall of Wall Maria, the Baumeister family was an aristocratic family closely tied with government and its affairs. Throughout the years of the Baumeister family, they have been affiliated with other wealthy families, such as the Inocencio family. In addition to their high status in society, Cardina was interested in applying for the military, but quit without fully completing his training. For unknown reasons, Cardina's father passed away. Cardina soon was arrested due to political turmoil.
Shiganshina arc
Across Cardina's jail cell, he is able to converse with another figure. He introduces himself to be Kuklo. Cardina tells Kuklo a short story about the city of Naraka.[1]
Two weeks go by, and Cardina along with Kuklo are tied up in a wagon to be fed to the Titans. Luckily, Kuklo acquires a knife and cuts off the other prisoners' binds and Cardina's. Cardina and Kuklo are noticeably the only two who jump off the wagon, as the other prisoners have accepted their fate. They decide to run to the edge of Wall Maria where Kuklo is able to make out a bright light belonging to a soldier. The soldier lowers a steel wire down, but Cardina comes to save Kuklo when he is in trouble fending for himself against a Titan. The two of them get hoisted up together, and they are introduced to the Military Police Brigade soldier, Jorge Pikale. Cardina is happy to see an old comrade, and they make their way to civilization.[2][3]
Visit to the Industrial City arc
Cardina is greeted with much hostility by Sharle Inocencio when arriving to the Industrial City. He is led to a factory house where he is able to stay. He also meets foreman Xenophon Harkimo and is quite eager to impress him. Thus, Cardina plans to join the Survey Corps with Kuklo.[4]

Top Wallet
Top Wallet claims to help you store more credit cards securely with its unique design in which you can carry up to 18 various types of cards safeguarded by RFID protection.
Top Wallet Review
Top Wallet is an innovative wallet that combines an extendable cardholder and RFID-blocking technology to make it a space-saving, secure place for your cards, money, and identification.
The wallet's commercial emphasizes the space-saving capability of the wallet, claiming that it's a great solution if you're plagued with an overstuffed wallet.
"Dropping an overstuffed wallet can be a nightmare," the commercial says, "but the top wallet stays closed so nothing falls out."
In this review, we'll talk about the wallet's various features, the cost and return policy, and then talk about the threat of RFID scams that could lead to your credit or debit card number being stolen.
How the Top Wallet Works
The wallet comes in black, tan, and red. It has a synthetic leather strap that goes across the top of the wallet and buttons down to keep the contents safe.
The genius behind the wallet is the extendable series of cardholders tucked into its inner compartment. To access the extension, you pull up on the strap in the same way that pulling on the end of a tape measure.
At this point, you'll expose eight cards of your choice. There's also a transparent slot on the back of the wallet in which you put your driver's license.
Now, the commercial for the wallet says that the wallet can hold up to 16 cards. We can see where nine of the cards go, so we're assuming there are a few other slots and spaces to put the remaining seven cards it claims it can hold.
The card's commercial and website don't indicate that you can double-up on cards in each slot, so keep that in mind.
Also, as we mentioned earlier, the wallet has RFID-blocking technology, although none of the information presented on the website or in the commercial explains how it blocks RFID scanners (more on that in a few minutes).
Top Wallet's Cost and Return Policy
At the time of publishing, you could buy a wallet for $19.99 plus $6.99 for shipping. The total for the wallet and shipping would be $25.98.
You also had the option of buying an additional wallet for a $6.99, which means two wallets shipped would be $32.97. The site will also charge you $1 for every order you make.
The Top Wallet site says your order will ship "within 30 days from the time the order is processed and will be mailed."
Your wallet will come with a 60-day, money-back guarantee. In order to process your return, you'll need to call (888)528-5809 to get a return authorization number.
The customer service reps will instruct you had to proceed. Keep in mind that you can't make a return without getting a return authorization number. Also, you'll be responsible to pay for shipping on the return.
Is RFID Credit Card Scamming a Common Thing?
Part of the appeal of this wallet and others like it is that they claim to stop RFID fraud, which is a manner of hacking that, supposedly, involves someone passing by you and waving a device that steals the information off your credit card.
We did some research on how prevalent this type of crime was and found a post on cyber security site, CSO, by columnist Roger A. Grimes that provided some interesting conclusions about the probability of someone walking by you and scanning your credit cards with what amounts to a criminal's magic wand.
"When I asked several contactless credit card security experts about their opinion of whether fraud could be committed using my proposed criminal scenario, they all said, 'No!' They said it was technologically impossible," Grimes wrote.
While he notes that there have been stories of RFID reading taking place, Grimes said they are few and far between.
"I could not find any public evidence of a single RFID contactless real-world crime being committed, and most knowledgeable officials I spoke with off the record did not think there would be any matching the fraud scenario I was seeking."
We also did a quick email interview with Robert Siciliano, a security analyst with HotspotShield, a Wi-Fi security app.
He said that fewer than 5 percent of credit cards in the U.S. use RFID technology, making minimal the threat of someone stealing your information.
"RFID cards make up less than 5% of cards deployed in the US. It is likely that neither you or anybody you know has an RFID card," Siciliano wrote.
Therefore, we believe you should consider buying the Top Wallet based on its function and storage capability, not its ability to block RFID fraud.
Comparing Top Wallet to Other Wallets
We wanted to get a sense of the cost of other wallets that provided a lot of storage space and RFID protection, so we took a look at some of the top-rated wallets of that type on Amazon.
We found one wallet from Kalmore that offered RFID protection as well as enough slots for 14 credit cards. This wallet employs an accordion-style storage system. When you open it up, it fans out. The wallet was $14.99 and had more than 2,300 reviews for an average rating of 4.5 stars.
The Marshal Bifold leather wallet was another highly rated option during the time of our research. It was $14.99, had an average rating of 4.4 stars and held up to 12 cards.
This wallet is different in that the Top Wallet and the Kalmore wallet because it opens up like a regular wallet but with an extra cardholder "page" in the middle.
We believe that both wallets offer better value than the Top Wallet. But, because this type of item is both a fashion accessory and a highly functional item, the way your wallet looks and works could be just as important as how much it costs.
Based on our observations, we think the pull-out extension of the Top Wallet makes it easier to see which card you want to pull out compared to the accordion-style operation of the Kalmore wallet.
The Marshal wallet is made from real leather and is easy to open and view your cards but the Top Wallet allows you to securely close up the wallet so that, in the event you drop it, nothing will fall out.
The Final Word: Our Conclusions About Top Wallet
Based on the research we did regarding RFID fraud and other competing wallets, it's our opinion that RFID crime isn't that big of danger and, therefore, shouldn't be a deciding factor in which wallet is best for you.
What we do think is important is your particular taste in style and function. If you like the concept of a wallet that can close completely and has a unique way of storing your cards, then the Top Wallet is a great choice.
However, if you prefer an accordion-style wallet or even a traditional bifold option, then you have plenty of choices on Amazon that could make you just as happy as the Top Wallet.

Western Blot Troubleshooting: Weak Signal
A weak western blot signal is characterized by faint or indistinct bands. While the bands may be barely visible at their predicted sizes, weak signal can often require repeating the experiment. Common sources of this error occur during protein transfer and detection. Use these tips to identify the source of the error and get better results:
|Transfer issues
|Insufficient sample concentration
|Increase the amount of starting material
|Concentrate your sample using immunoprecipitation or similar procedure
|Transfer too vigorous
|Reduce transfer time or voltage to prevent small proteins transferring completely through membrane
|Use a secondary membrane to capture proteins transferred through the primary membrane
|Use a membrane with smaller pore size
|Inadequate transfer
|Increase transfer time or voltage
|Sandwich assembly oriented incorrectly
|Make sure the sandwich assembly is oriented correctly relative to the electric field
|Check the polarity of the electric field
|Incorrect transfer buffer PH
|Adjust transfer buffer PH to be 2 points lower than the pI of protein sample to optimize charge:mass ratio
|Detection issues
|Insufficient antibody concentration
|Use a dot blot assay to optimize protein concentration
|Insufficient antibody binding affinity
|Reduce washing stringency
|Increase antibody concentration
|Use Boster high affinity primary antibodies
|Insufficient sample loading
|Use more starting material
|Concentrate sample prior to loading
|Antigens masked by dry milk blocking solution
|Nonfat dry milk can sometimes mask antigens. Try using a different blocking reagent
