Another day when strong discipline was needed. Early trades brought nice profit, especially LVS long at 9.54 where we got a stock right before sharp rise for about 30 cents gain in a matter of two minutes. Then the day turned into struggle, as it's customary lately. Stop here, scalp there, unless you just shrugged and bought AIG.
Session Time: Wed Apr 07 00:00:00 2010

By streamlining the company's existing solar cell manufacturing facility, JA Solar is able to achieve higher than expected production to meet strong customer orders. We also won several new European customers during the quarter, which further diversified our customer base and provides better visibility for the full year."
[09:11] {Threei} Gold vs Euro continues to make new record highs
[09:11] {Threei} probably because Greece is not a problem anymore
[09:14] {Threei} so far, whatever it was that supressed market overnight, it tries to fight back

[09:32] {Threei} les :)
[09:32] {shorty} gm
[09:33] {dino} gj nemo
[09:33] {Threei} LVS,one more little pullback, then break of .80 long
[09:33] {Threei} no, not yet
[09:33] {shorty} nice nempo
[09:33] {Threei} ugh
[09:36] {ese} L jaso .18
[09:37] {ese} out jaso .28 +.07
[09:37] {nemo} finnies rising? fas on fire again
[09:37] {ese} out .25
[09:37] {Threei} Long Setup: LVS .90 break
[09:37] {Threei} if stays above .80
[09:38] {Threei} if loses it becomes an aggressive entry
[09:40] {nemo} in lvs
[09:41] {nemo} 1/2 out .99
[09:41] {dino} cagc sm l .55
[09:42] {nemo} stopped 2nd half

[09:43] {Les} PURE on this pullback? long entry?
[09:43] {Threei} Long Setup: WFC .50 break if stays above .40
[09:44] {Threei} kind of ruined the structure dp... after coming to 1:1, stop is trailed to under b/e
[09:44] {Threei} so to say .80 or .85, I don't have anything to hang my hat on
[09:44] {dptl} uh stopped lvs....my mistake....yep
06[09:44] * nemo slaps dptl around a bit with a large book of Techniques of Tape Reading
[09:45] {dptl} :)
[09:45] {Threei} it just becomes a separate play on such pullback, not possible to judge by criteria of previous one
[09:45] {Threei} PURE, np, I'd like to see deeper pullback
[09:45] {shorty} HBAN might pass $6
[09:46] {Threei} WFC, let's re-make the idea
[09:46] {nemo} interesting...haven't been able to short FAS for a couple of days
[09:46] {Threei} long if market jumps,
[09:46] {Threei} aggressive entry on recross, using 5 cents ranges
[09:46] {nemo} break of .40?
[09:46] {Threei} .40 if holding above .35
[09:46] {ese} out hban .98 -.03
[09:46] {Threei} .35 if holding .30
[09:47] {nemo} o.k. the routine

[09:54] {dino} no was waiting at .05 never hit me
[09:54] {Threei} Long Setup: LVS .90 break

[09:58] {dino} mon green
[09:59] {Threei} wow... LVS feel liberated from gravity
[09:59] {nemo} interesting...bad earnings and guidance and mon up
[09:59] {dino} syt sm l; .52
[10:00] {Threei} this is what stocks do in a bull market nemo
[10:00] {nemo} that's my point
[10:00] {Threei} any selling is just a reason to lure bears in and kill them, o matter what the reason
[10:01] {Threei} (US) SEC proposes new rules for ABS sales
[10:01] {Threei} - Proposes 5% Retention For Asset-Backed Securities Issuers

[10:01] {Threei} - Proposes Scrapping Rating Requirement For Expedited ABS Sale
[10:01] {Threei} - Proposes Continuous Loan-Level Disclosures For Asset-Backed Securities
[10:01] {Threei} PURE consolidated

[10:02] {larisa} your bull is kinda anemic.. on carrot diet it seems :)
[10:02] {Threei} it's one of those... either you get a feel for it or stay away
[10:02] {Les} hehe
[10:02] {Threei} true
[10:03] {Les} gdx
[10:03] {Les} sorry
[10:03] {Threei} but the thing about this particular bull is, it's called anemic through its entire life, from the moment it was born as a calf in march of 2009
[10:03] {fernp} USB double bottom, Vad?
[10:03] {Threei} yet it just continues, both living and eating heatlhy mighty bears for breakfast
[10:03] {dino} hey les, ex. of what do you believe that isn't true, mon today
[10:04] {Les} don't need to believe, just enough eyes with which to see it happening!
[10:04] {Threei} not sure fern, a bit to slow for me to get a read on it
[10:04] {fernp} ok
[10:05] {ese} interesting 300k bid at .30 for jaso
[10:05] {Les} fcx is lagging gdx again
[10:06] {Threei} ese, look at SOLF

[10:06] {magoo} mornink
[10:06] {Threei} mags :)

[10:07] {dino} ctrp l .00

[10:13] {Threei} Gasoline: -1.8Me
[10:13] {Threei} Distillate: -1.5Me
[10:14] {ese} it would have been easier to trade for sure
[10:15] {Threei} if market resumes this torturous slow grind up, PMI will be inetersting
[10:15] {Threei} .10 break
[10:15] {Threei} slow, thick

[10:21] {Threei} it's OK shorty, repetition helps us underastand better
[10:21] {shorty} The way to learn

[10:22] {fernp} stop in PMI is under .05 , Vad?
[10:22] {Threei} yes
[10:23] {fernp} ty

[10:25] {Threei} shorty... there is so much more to this than that
[10:25] {shorty} This is why I ask.
[10:25] {nemo} shorty, candles need to be read in context
[10:26] {Threei} and not one by one
[10:26] {nemo} and in relationships to volume, support resistance
[10:26] {Threei} certain formations of them make sense
[10:26] {RonS} s mon .80 small
[10:26] {magoo} LVS vad interesting
[10:26] {shorty} I look at the 5 min, and the 1 min chart the most.

[10:34] {shorty} lol
[10:34] {Threei} why, you have some kind of personal limits on slaps?
[10:34] {Threei} or is it superstition?
[10:34] {shorty} I like to Threei, even though I have thick skin.
[10:34] {Threei} two slaps a day - winter for two more months?
[10:34] {RonS} cov mon .40, +.20, thx dino

[10:44] {Threei} I'd look for short entry on FCX bounce mags

[10:45] {Threei} - Preliminary testing of the compound has produced promising results when applied to cells, and the compound is being explored further for its application to treat a variety of neurological conditions, including Alzheimer's.
[10:46] {Threei} Results in cells do not necessarily translate to human testing, and additional work needs to be completed to determine whether the compound will have significant B-amyloid lowering effects in humans.
[10:47] {shorty} nemo, looking at the 5 min chart on TIVO, would that give you an entry to short?
[10:47] {nemo} tivo crapped out at pivot R3 on the one minute
[10:48] {shorty} thanks
[10:48] {Threei} I like the teechnical terminology
[10:48] {nemo} you do have a bearish candle formation, but, you have r2 support at .14 and vwap at about the same place, so further shorting might not be a good idea
[10:49] {Les} yeh that was my entry nemo. love those pivots
[10:49] {shorty} Speaking of crapped out ZION did just that
[10:53] {Les} dt palm?

[11:46] {Threei} PALM situation is,
[11:47] {Threei} i's pretty much damaged goods at this point until and unless something changes materially,
[11:47] {Threei} and as many stocks in this situation do, it becomes a subject of speculations
[11:47] {Threei} and squeezes now and then,
[11:48] {Threei} when shorts pile up too much and become too careless
[11:49] {Threei} but to get serious sustainable momentum, it really needs something more than takeover rumor

[14:05] {Threei} Fed's Hoenig takes a swing at Greenspan:
[14:05] {Threei} - Low rates have contribued to the economic crisis
[14:05] {Threei} - Markets must not depend on the Fed for risk management
[14:05] {Threei} - Current rate policy for 'extended period' is encouraging investors to bet on the continuance of an exceptionally easy policy

[14:14] {shorty} lol
[14:15] {Threei} look forward for nemo, magoo and dp wandering around very soon
[14:15] {Threei} next wave will come as soon as they pipoint your location
[14:15] {shorty} Ahhh....I could use a lapdog or two
[14:15] {Threei} keep an eye on SIMG on this pullback folks,
[14:16] {Threei} not your usual fast day trading stock,
[14:16] {Threei} but .20 - .25 zone will be interesting for entry
[14:16] {Threei} unless market reverses upward again and speeds up, may turn into overnight hold
[14:18] {Threei} I just looked back in the morning,
[14:18] {Threei} guess what
[14:19] {Threei} out best play was called 25 min in the day,
[14:19] {Threei} and weas over in two minutes
[14:19] {shorty} LVS
[14:19] {Threei} the rest of the day we could be in coma just as well
[14:19] {Threei} [09:54] {Threei} Long Setup: LVS .90 break
[14:19] {shorty} I got out too early on that one Threei, about 10 cents too soon.
[14:20] {Threei} because you don't listen to me...
[14:20] {Threei} [09:55] {Threei} should be more than scalp
[14:20] {shorty} I got out just before you said that
[14:20] {Threei} but what else is new.. no one else does, why would you
[14:21] {shorty} At 9.55.30 to be exact, just looked at my log
[14:21] {Threei} this would be material if we only could believe it:
[14:21] {Threei} (US) Fed Chairman Bernanke: Reiterates Fed will not monitize debt, reiterates that the structural US deficit cannot be maintained at current levels - Q&A
[14:21] {Threei} - can avoid inflationary consequences, but could see inflationary effect if investors lose confidence in the US as we have seen recently in other countries.
[14:21] {nemo} o.k. how haven't they monetized the debt?
[14:22] {Threei} I wish we had an answer to that
[14:22] {Threei} as it stands, all we can have is a very grown-up with them:
[14:22] {Threei} did too! - did not!
[14:25] {Threei} watching CAT
[14:25] {Threei} if market is done dropping, this one is scalpable on 65 trigger
[14:25] {nemo} not yet
[14:25] {Threei} not done yet
[14:26] {Threei} and I am not to jazzed about shorting here
[14:26] {nemo} cat looks like spy looks like qs looks like fas
[14:26] {Threei} AAPL Ticks lower on CNBC teasing upcoming segment on 'bugs' on iPad (240.75, +1.21, 0.51%)
[14:27] {Les} lol, love the rumours
[14:27] {Threei} - Note: Reports have circulated in recent days about the struggles some owners are reporting with WiFi signal
[14:30] {Threei} ok, who is willing to break the boredom down, with minimal risk for not stellar reward,
[14:30] {nemo} fern
[14:30] {Threei} let' CAT drop under .80
[14:30] {Threei} then start routine bottom hunt woth halt lot,
[14:30] {Threei} 5 cents ranges on recross
[14:31] {Threei} .80 break if holding .75
[14:31] {Threei} .75 break if holding .70 now
[14:31] {Threei} etc, you know the drill
[14:32] {Threei} PALM still climbing
[14:32] {Threei} oblivious to the market
[14:37] {Threei} in CAT for double bottom attempt
[14:37] {Threei} 5 cents stop
[14:37] {Threei} target between .75 and .80
[14:38] {Threei} don't even know how much it's a valid setup vs boredom
[14:38] {nemo} my thoughts eqzaktly
[14:38] {Threei} but I'll pretend it was a great setup I was waiting for, OK?
[14:38] {nemo} looks like you got capitulation volume
[14:39] {Threei} well, I do have classic DB with one outside BBs and one inside
[14:39] {nemo} ahh
[14:40] {Threei} and enough bounce for a scalp
[14:40] {Threei} target hit
[14:40] {Threei} sigh... 12 cents profit
[14:41] {Threei} gotta be careful not to spend it all at once place
[14:41] {Threei} but hey, vs 5 cents risk?

[14:41] {Threei} one-handed shorty?
[14:42] {shorty} How did you know?
[14:42] {Threei} lucky guess
[14:42] {Threei} ok, jokes aside, zoom in on 1 min chart,
[14:42] {Threei} see what the trade was based on?
[14:42] {Threei} 14:34, shar sell into new low,
[14:43] {Threei} formed a bottom outside of BBs
[14:43] {Threei} 14:37, second sell in the same level, .60,
[14:43] {Threei} starts greeing from there, forming second bottom inside of BBs
[14:44] {Threei} confirmation is too far from entry, .70,
[14:44] {Threei} high formed at 14:36,
[14:44] {Threei} so aggressive entry is in order
[14:44] {Threei} as close to .,60 as possible, on first signs of strength
[14:44] {Threei} very narrow stop, just under suport
[14:45] {Threei} with exit for scalpers around that top, for more meanngful play into spike after breaking it
[14:46] {magoo} GS strong
[14:46] {magoo} AIG
[14:48] {shorty} You have just confirmed that I need practice Threei., or ride your coattails.
[14:49] {Threei} how did I manage to do that?
[14:49] {Threei} more often all I manage is to scare the living daylight out of children
[14:49] {Threei} and convince adults they want to stay as far away from as possibler
[14:50] {Threei} you are not easy to scare I see...

+ R.E.M.: Fables of the Reconstruction (1985) – When its extraordinary third album was released, R.E.M. was a band of wonder – and not just because you couldn't understand a blessed word Michael Stipe was singing. With veteran British folk-rock champion Joe Boyd producing, the Georgia rockers created a neo-psychedelic dreamscape album full of murky hooks and melodies where you can practically hear the rain, fog and shadows.
+ Jeff Beck: Blow By Blow (1975) – Released 35 years ago this spring, Blow by Blow remains Jeff Beck's masterpiece – an instrumental album cut at the heart of the fusion era with George Martin as producer. From the elegant blues of Steve Wonder's Cause We've Ended as Lovers to Martin's majestic orchestration on Diamond Dust to Beck's own ferocity on Scatterbrain, this career-defining triumph still sounds like a million bucks.
+ Various artists: California Concert (1972) – Out-of-print CD edition of a 1971 live album featuring jazz artists signed to the then-booming CTI label, including George Benson, Freddie Hubbard and Stanley Turrentine. The music makes nods to fusion without being overtly poppish. Asking price for a new copy on amazon.com: $177. Found a clean-as-a-whistle used copy at CD Central last week for 7 bucks. Mercy.
+ Grace Potter and the Nocturnals: Live in Skowhegan (2010) – Borrowing from vintage girl group pop and muscular, organic '70s rock, Vermont songstress Potter has rightly earned high marks as a live act – hence, this seven-song concert EP from a June 2008 show at a Maine opera house. Available as a limited edition release for Record Store Day, Skowhegan nicely fills the gap until Potter's next studio album hits stores in June.
+ Various artists: Broadcasts Vol. 17, KGSR Radio Austin (2009) – Every year at holiday time, a friend in Austin, Tx. sends a copy of the newest Broadcasts disc. With proceeds benefiting mental health and addiction services for the central Texas music community, Broadcasts is limited to single pressings of fine acoustic radio performances. Then they're gone for good. Vol.17 boasts Steve Earle, Alejandro Escovedo, Gillian Welch and a lot more.

From the Chosun Ilbo:
Asia's military spending will exceed Europe's for the first time ever this year, according to a study released Wednesday by the International Institute for Strategic Studies. "While the West reduces its spending on defence, Asia is becoming increasingly militarised, as a result of rapid economic growth and strategic uncertainty," it said in a press release.
The main factor is the increase in China's military spending, which takes up 30 percent of the total in Asia. China's military expenditure in 2011 was 2.5 times bigger than the figure in 2001 and has been doubling every five years.
Due to territorial disputes in the South China Sea, "Australia, Indonesia, Malaysia, Singapore, Thailand and Vietnam are all investing in improving air and naval capacities, as are India, Japan and South Korea," the IIS said.
It added, "China's leadership transition is expected to begin this year and, during leadership transitions, sensitive issues that impinge on questions of national sovereignty may be subject to particular attention. Naval competition in the South China Sea will likely continue and interested states will still pursue naval procurements."
Reuters cited IISS director-general John Chipman as saying, "There's no doubt we are seeing a major shift. What we see in Asia is just about every kind of strategic challenge — from 19th century-style territorial disputes to economic rivalry and potential new nuclear weapons states … We need to manage that."
However, the IISS sets no great store by Chinese military technology. "China's technological advances are more modest than some alarmist hypotheses of its military development have suggested," it said. "They represent nascent rather than actual capability. China, for example, does not yet have the capability to operate fixed-wing aircraft from a carrier. However, China's development of anti-satellite capacities, anti-ship ballistic missiles, cruise missiles, and cyber-warfare capabilities preoccupies foreign defence planners as much as its drive to boost major platform capability."
It added Beijing's "growing suite of modern platforms reinforces the gradual change in the balance of power across the Taiwan Strait. That said, the strategic priorities of the People's Liberation Army are gradually widening from the defence of China's borders to force projection within East Asia and further afield, in order to secure sea lanes of communication."
But the fact that Asia is spending more than Europe does not necessarily mean that its military prowess is greater as well, the IISS wrote. "The U.S. and other Western nations will look to maintain a qualitative and quantitative edge over states such as China through continued investment in research and development, as well as an emphasis on the quality and reliability of equipment, leadership and training." (Source: Chosun Ilbo)
The International Institute for Strategic Studies comments in the above article lay the details out well enough that I don't have much to add, but it's surely an interesting milestone.
Should you have an extra £238 laying around, you can find the source of the Chosun Ilbo's article, the recently published IISS's Military Balance 2012, on the IISS website.

BOSTON (CBS) —- Good scoop for Dan Rea last night on WBZ Radio's "Nightside," as former Sen. Scott Brown chose his program to announce that he won't be running for governor next year.
Listen to Jon's commentary
BOSTON (CBS) —- Good scoop for Dan Rea last night on WBZ Radio's "Nightside," as former Sen. Scott Brown chose his program to announce that he won't be running for governor next year.
Listen to Jon's commentary
And despite strenuous efforts to reserve all options, it sounds to me like Brown won't be running for anything in the foreseeable future, not senator from New Hampshire or Massachusetts, and certainly not for president.
And why would he?
Those campaigns are grueling exercises for which, starting yesterday, Brown would have to devote nearly every waking moment to fundraising, organizing and fending off unwelcome questions from the media.
Instead, he is free to continue sharing his thoughts and promoting his brand on various Fox News forums, raking in dough from assorted positions he holds on corporate boards and elsewhere, and enjoying his family and celebrity.
His eldest daughter just got engaged, and as Brown put it last night: "I have a wedding to plan."
OK, I don't really see Brown spending too much time agonizing over the chiffon versus the taffeta bridesmaid dresses.
But who among us could blame him if he chose never to run again?
After all, his efforts to be bipartisan during his brief time in the Senate went unrewarded by the voters. He promises to continue promoting bipartisan compromise, and the truth is he can probably do so much more effectively from the outside than the inside.
Let's not overly lionize Scott Brown. At times, like when he left local Republicans hanging way too long before passing on the last US Senate race, his behavior can be self-serving.
But if this is truly it for Brown's political career, it's yet another sign of how there's little room left for someone who doesn't fit the lazy, foolish partisanship that has our political culture in its sleazy grip.
You can listen to Keller At Large on WBZ News Radio every weekday at 7:55 a.m. You can also watch Jon on WBZ-TV News.

Grandpa Green and Mom?
Hi Everybody, our cousin Julie sent me this picture that she thinks is Mom and Grandpa Green on the farm in South Dakota. It looks like Mom to me too, but I wanted to see what others thought about it. It's kind of hard to tell with this small image, but if you click on it you will get a 1000x629 pixel version and you will be able to check it out better. Can't tell for sure, but it looks like they were out bird hunting. If you replace Grandpa Green with a picture of a younger guy, you might think it was Bonnie and Clyde, just back from robbing a bank.

Too Bad!
Sorry to hear about your change in plans. We were really looking forward to seeing all of you (especially Erik and Erin). Although I don't think I want to fly (too much of a hassle), you may get some other West Coast visitors sometime. We were just talking about that the other day, about how nice a trip to Hawaii would be. I'm assuming that you guys will be on the Big Island? You see how I have the local lingo down already? In place of an actual visit, here are some pictures of a recent trip down to the waterfront so that you'll remember what we all look like anyway. Good luck on your trip and with your new home.

Hawaii Move
I guess this will start sounding like a comedy of errors, but due to the inability to make anything close to a good connection out of Baltimore and then out of Seattle, and the requirement that we stick with Delta, we are going to have to go straight to Hawaii this time. I'm sorry about that, and can only hope that we get some visitors out there in the near future. Hopefully we can take advantage of free military flights to get back to Seattle soon.

What We Did Last Summer, and What We'll Do This Fall
Hello everyone,
We will be moving west, way west, in October. I can't say exactly what day it will be, because that depends on how soon we can get an appointment to pack and ship all our household goods. I requested an October 2 departure, because the school the kids will be attending in Hawaii starts its second quarter on October 13 (the school is year round, with breaks of a couple of weeks between each quarter), but that may be a little optimistic. If all goes well, we will have a firm departure date by sometime next week.
Once we have that, we will decide how we are getting there. We may 1) drive out to Seattle (government is shipping only one vehicle, we have to sell or ship the other ourselves...$2100 from here, half that from Seattle, 2) fly from here to Billings so that we can make a little Yellowstone trip, something that Jane really wants to do, and then fly from there to Seattle, or 3) if short of time, fly straight from here to Seattle for a couple of days before heading out to Hawaii.
Although October 2 may be a little bit too optimistic, I'm afraid we won't be delaying it enough to be there when Eldora visits. On the positive side, while Baltimore to Seattle is about the same as Honolulu to Seattle, from Hawaii we may be able to fly to McChord on military aircraft for nothing, compared to an arm and a leg on civilian aircraft from here.
Here are a few pictures of the kids over the summer...common theme, most everything involved water...
Cheers, and hope to see the NW Jenks's soon.

The Eparchy which is a jurisdiction similar to a Diocese will be governed by an Eparch. The Pope has appointed Fr. Joseph Srampickal, a priest of the Eparchy of Palai, at present Vice-Rector of Propaganda Fide College as the first Eparch.
The Syro-Malabar Catholic Church is one of the 22 Eastern (Oriental) Catholic Churches in full communion with Rome. It is the second largest Eastern Catholic Church after the Ukrainian Church and the largest of the St Thomas Christian (Nazrani) denominations with 4.6 million believers.
There are currently five Syro-Malabar chaplains in Scotland serving communities in the dioceses of: St. Andrews and Edinburgh, Aberdeen, Dunkeld, Glasgow and Motherwell.
Commenting on the announcement, the President of the Bishops' Conference of Scotland, Archbishop Philip Tartaglia said;
"The Bishops' Conference of Scotland welcomes the establishment by Pope Francis of an Eparchy for the Syro-Malabar Catholic communities of Great Britain including those in Scotland. We congratulate Fr. Joseph Srampickal, on his nomination as the first Eparch (Bishop) of this new ecclesiastical jurisdiction."
Archbishop Tartaglia added;
"The Catholic Church in Scotland shares the joy of our Syro-Malabar communities which are notable for their religious devotion and for the seriousness with which they regard Catholic family life and the transmission of the faith to their young people and children."

Last term when we were preparing the report cards, one of the Primary teachers did some mistakes in filling the report cards. She was told by the head of primary section to get it photocopied from outside and again fill the reports. It was quite tough for her, she complained that she was not aware of that column that is why she put a tick. What I remember the whole issue resulted into bitterness, hatred and hopelessness.
I wish the head of primary would have used the white-out on this situation.
What would you do, when you find someone's mistakes towards you?
Let us read Mat 6:12, 14-15.
"Forgive us the wrongs that we have done, as we forgive the wrongs others have done us. For if you forgive men when they sin against you, your heavenly Father will also forgive you. But, if you do not forgive men their sins, your Father will not forgive your sins."
God has given a wonderful white-out to all of us.
"It is Jesus millennium product".
He has given it to you and me freely. Brand name of this product is forgiveness.
He uses that on our mistakes and He wants us to do same. But many times we are failed to apply it and try to use force of eraser or blade to remove the mistakes, which finally results into a scar.
But white-out is a better solution, it will remind you with brightness and you will not be ignorant of the past.
Say-I won't be ignorant of the past
Say-White out is a better solution!
Every now and then I see our students keep repeating the mistakes, if we analyze these, we clearly see 3 different levels
1. They broke the rules unknowingly, because of their growth level
2. They broke the rules because of their ill brought up
3. They broke the rules because they were moving out of the school
Whenever anything happens in my life or in the lives of my near ones, I always take time to study and learn the pattern of life, through the students of my school. God's kingdom is not at all less in any way than a school.
Say-I am learning
Say-White out is a better solution!
All of our actions come from a basic human survival instinct, which in real sense is, love for ourselves
Ask your neighbor, how much do you love yourself?
Many times when we look back and see how we did in the past, we always think, if I had known it; I could have done things differently in the past.
From this perspective, will you say, that was not wrong!
Definitely not! Wrong is wrong, but there can be explanations and reasons for that
However, it is important to see why you did and what you did so that you can have self forgiveness because if you do not forgive yourself it will block your personal progress
Say- It is time to let go off the burden of the past.
Say- White out is a better solution!
We are all learning and growing and we act in agreement with whatever stage of growth we are on at the time. We all have shames and guilt in our past lives. As children, many times we were judged but not explained the reason for our punishment.
That results into growing the negative approach. This negative approach will lead us into deeper wounds which are not in alignment with the word of God. God calls us unique, peculiar and blessed and apple of His eyes.
Say-I am apple of God's eye
Say-White out is a better solution!
Let us read Romans 12:17-19
Do not repay anyone evil for evil. Be careful to do what is right in the eyes of everybody. If it is possible, as far as it depends on you, live at peace with everyone. Do not take revenge, my friends, but leave room for God's wrath, for it is written: "It is mine to avenge; I will repay", says the Lord.
I like two words in this passage a lot and that makes me full of joy of the Lord. These two words made me from sinner to righteous
These two wonderful words are wrath and avenge
What! Wrath and Avenge, how can these words be wonderful
Bible says God wants all of us to come to the knowledge of God; He wants all of us to be saved. Once I was a sinner and under the wrath of God and I was troubled in my life but notice the wrath and punishment of God brought me into His kingdom. Because of my troubles I began to search God. It means wrath of God is not anger with hatred, but it is with restoration. That's why Paul wrote, Do not take revenge, my friends, but leave room for God's wrath, for it is written: "It is mine to avenge; I will repay", says the Lord.
What about your anger? Is it mix with restoration or separation?
Say- God is able
Say- White out is a better solution!
From God's perspective- Nothing is hidden from Him and yet He is always ready to forgive us and He forgets our sins, remembers them no more
Let us Read Hebrews 8:12
For I will forgive their wickedness and will remember their sins no more."
Say-God remembers my sins no more
Say-White out is a better solution!
Most forgiveness issues have three levels
1. Outwardly- we just say forgive or forgiven but does not really mean from the heart
2. Feeling based- sometimes we ask for forgiveness or we forgive people because of our emotions, but truly not
3. Conviction from Holy Spirit- true and only repentance is through Holy Spirit. When God convicts us, there is always restoration. There may be no restoration between the people but still you will settle peace between you and God.
Many a times when someone does mistakes, people see him as someone unworthy. Like nothing can be done now, God's wrath will fall upon and this person will die, or will go to hell. All hell and demon scripture become alive for that person
Legally a person, who is under the trail of the court, cannot be declared criminal until the judge declares it. Now there is a good report, our Judge Jesus doesn't hold our sins against us. He has forgiven us.
Say-I am on my way to heaven
Say-White out is a better solution!
Remember Learning to live for God doesn't happen overnight. It's a journey
Making mistakes is a leaning .process, as we learn; we increase in awareness and grow
There are no mistakes from the viewpoint of our creator. He gives us the experience to lead others
Let us read Hebrews 12:1-3
And let us run with endurance the race God has set before us. We do this by keeping our eyes on Jesus, the champion who initiates and perfects our faith. Because of the joy awaiting him, he endured the cross, disregarding its shame. Now he is seated in the place of honor beside God's throne. Think of all the hostility he endured from sinful people; then you won't become weary and give up
Be glad about your progress, you're growing and seeing your life improved each day little by little. Salvation Is of God's love for you and how his Spirit living in you will guide, protect, love, forgive, and love you again.
Say- God has given a wonderful white-out to all of us.
Say- Jesus millennium product is a better solution!
Pray and ask God to forgive you from all your past hurts, pain and release every person unto God. Be ready to receive an abundant life
White-Out is a Better Solution!

Mad Max: Fury Road has turned into one of the more unlikely critical darlings in recent memory. George Miller's long-awaited sequel/reboot to his famed Road Warrior character has received rave reviews from critics both here in the States and at the Cannes Film Festival, where the critics there gave the film a lengthy standing ovation. It's almost hard to believe it, since the film has had a long and troubled story of getting on the screen. From delays either due to going over budget, weather, actors not getting along, etc, this film was destined to fail. But after a brilliant marketing campaign and support from fanboys on the internet, Mad Max: Fury Road is here, and I'm about to let you know if this is the film to end all films this summer or not.
Fury Road really isn't a prequel or sequel to any of
the previous Mad Max films. It stands on it's own, a lot like The Road Warrior did. The story this time around is that we're still in a post-apocalyptic world, and we meet our titular character, played by Tom Hardy this go-around, who is captured by a group that holds what may be all of the water left in the world. Hugh Keays-Byrne, who you may remember as the Toecutter in the very first Mad Max film, plays the main villain of the film named Immortan Joe, and has a rather intimidating mask over his mouth, and forces Charlize Theron's Furiosia to go on a run for oil. However, she decides to go off course and the rest of the film is one big car chase, with Max joining in on the fun.
Miller returns to co-write, produce and direct this film after years of dabbling in family fare, more recently with the Babe and Happy Feet films. After reading about all the delays and reshoots that plagued this film almost from the very beginning, it all sort of makes sense once you're finished watching the movie, and in no way do I mean that in a negative connotation. With the exception of a few shots here and there, nearly all of the effects in Fury Road are practical, which is unheard of in our CGI-infused world. It's such a wonderful and exciting breath of fresh air to watch this film, as you feel all the car crashes and explosions that go along throughout the film. I know that I sound like every other critic at this point, but is there really a critic out there that hated this film? Mad Max: Fury Road is a masterpiece in the action film genre. It's quite possibly the greatest action film that's been shot in decades, and is easily the best film of the summer and of 2015 for that reason.
One thing that I really admired about this film is that in the mix of all this chaos and bone-crunching action, there is a good deal of fleshed-out and developed characters, again something that's almost unheard of in a big summer tentpole. Charlize Theron is practically the star of the film, as she's the most interesting character of not only this film, but of the whole damn franchise if you look at it as a whole. It's a great character and a great performance that Theron has put together, easily some of her best work. Tom Hardy is perfect as the often quiet and stoic Max, who is more than able to take the mantle that Mel Gibson held as this character throughout the 80's. We also get a really unexpectedly great performance from Nicolas Hault, who plays a henchman in the army run by Immortan Joe. You go in thinking that it's just a bit part for the young actor, but there's a lot of meat to the character, which is great to have.
But everybody is praising the film for its action, and it never disappoints. Each action scene keeps getting better and better, and what makes it even better is that the whole film is practically one big chase across the desert. Warner Bros. somehow was able to get away with making a 150 million dollar budgeted film and give it a hard R-rating, which I'm not quite sure if the film would've worked as well as it did without that rating. The film is able to be as brutal and bad-shit insane as the previous Mad Max films, if not crazier. The film is a both a throwback to old school action films like The Road Warrior with its crazy camera shots and practical effects, but is able to make it all translate and transition well to a modern movie going audience. The only thing that scares me is that enough people aren't going to see this film. Not only must you see Fury Road, but it must be seen on the big screen. I'd probably skip the 3D, as it didn't do much for me, but you must see it in a theater. Films like Fury Road should be making a billion dollars during their entire theatrical run and not the Marvel films (not that there's anything wrong with the Marvel films, but hopefully you get the gist).
I'm still a little speechless from the film. I honestly haven't had that much fun with a film in at least a year or so. If you're wondering why the content on this site has been a little light as of recent, a little bit of that could have something to do with the lack of enjoyable films coming out, because I don't get screenings for most of these films, I pay for nearly all of them. But after seeing a film like Mad Max: Fury Road, I'm more than motivated to get back into the summer movie season. I'm more than certain that I won't see anything as brilliant and exciting as Fury Road for the rest of the summer, or for the entire year if you think about it, but I'm back.

fail, joy, kids, not-trains, weather
As is perfectly normal I was paddling with a friend in the Diana Memorial in Hyde Park. Or rather, we were sitting on the edge dangling our feet in the water while hoardes of small children raced past in the stream. Look, it was a hot day, ok?
At one point I nudged my friend and pointed out a three-year-old pushing his toys through the water.
"Look, they're swimming. That's a good concept."
The small boy glanced up and in a withering tone replied, "They're not a concept; they're DINOSAURS!"
That's me told, then. 😀

Never heard of the thing; has it been emulated yet? I don't think it makes sense to build an adapter before you manage to dig out at least some basic technical info.
Can those cartridges be taken apart non-destructively? What does the mainboard look like; is it possible to follow the traces between CPU, RAM chips and cartridge slot?
Tough one; I couldn't find any data on those CPUs. I guess one could figure out at least some of the address and data lines by tracing them from the on-mainboard ROM and RAM chips (standardized pinout) to the cartridge slots. That would at least give us 8 or 16K of memory space. The rest is then likely to require lucky guessing or even logic analyzer while the device is running.
You seem to understand a lot more about this process than I do. By any chance is this a task that you would consider?

I'm just about to start FIVE MINUTES ALONE by Paul Cleave. I've really enjoyed the earlier novels of Cleave, who has a ferocious prose style and a very dark with beneath the violence. FIVE MINUTES alone sees the return of Theo Tate and Carl Schroder, two guys who've bounced between being cops and private investigations work. An accident has Schroder - usually the straight arrow - taking vengeance on criminals by providing victims' families with the often-wanted 'five minutes alone'.
Interested to see what you think Craig - I've just finished that one :)
I just finished Death of a Chimney Sweep by M.C. Beaton. My review is on Goodreads but I'll say here that it was an enjoyable book about the villagers of Lochdubh and Detective Hamish Macbeth. There are some things I didn't like about the writing but they could be British issues.
JF Five Minutes Alone by Paul Cleave and Gun Street Girl by Adrian McKinty - so feeling very privileged :) Next up is The Life I Left Behind by Colette McBeth.
I just finished "The Busy Body" by Donald Westlake, my favorite crime fiction writer. It was definitely a fun little yarn about a dead guy in a blue suit. I'm about to start "Lucky at Cards" by Lawrence Block, a veteran crime writer who I recently learned wrote the book behind "A Walk Among the Tombstones."
Ah. I keep trying, but I can't read Barnard.
My mistake. Put it down to old age. :-) The author is Robert Goddard.
Oh. Worth trying?
The Bloodiest Meadow is also published as The Darkening Field?
I'm reading or re-reading Dick Francis (the father, not the son). They are still very, very good. It's a pity our libraries have removed all the older books to make room for new writers. I've yet to find one of those I could stomach.
Have read all of Camilleri's. My all time favorite.
I'm reading KISSCUT by Karin Slaughter. Somehow I missed this one in the Grant Pass series, so I went back to read it. It's excellent, as are all her books. In my opinion, if you're looking for a can't-put-down thriller/mystery you can't go wrong with Karin Slaughter.

Show a little LOVE
I know I don't have that many readers that check in on a frequent basis, but if you are stopping by and you are a nice person you will continue to read.My friend Keira-Anne is awesome, and she is participating in a fundraiser for Big Brothers Big Sisters. They will be having a beach party while bowling and helping to support a great organization who unites kids with quality mentors.For a long time I have said that I wanted to become a big sister, and as I am working way up north in the middle of nowhere I am living vicariously through Keira as she does her thing! So… donate… if you think about it, take that $10 you were going to put towards something like coffee, a new shirt, a dinner out, and support these kids.. trust me.. they need it more than you do!:) So click here to support Keira and just in case you were worried, yes you do get a tax receipt.
New Beginnings
When it comes to the blogging timeline, I have been a "blogger" since the near beginnings. Over 5 years now I have recorded thoughts, feelings, and adventures and shared them with the online community. Up until about a month ago it was something that I did every week or so whenever I had something new or interesting to write about. I can't really explain what happened but with the loss of a loved one, I decided to delete my blog. 5 years worth of ramblings gone in the click of a button. I didn't feel sad, or like I was losing anything. I felt released. So in light of that, I have decided to start this project, not so much a blog but more of a showcase for arts, or anything that I feel needs to be noticed and remembered. I hope to be completely honest, and diligent in this project and to start fresh on a new path with my purpose being to "Breathe Culture" into this space.
