Covid-19 and Implications on India's Savings
Sancy K. Jose
India has announced its new industrial policy in the year 1991, but Indians never deviate from their traditional character of saving their money in various ways. For example – children are trained to save through saving boxes as a habit. Most of the people who belongs to middle class invest their money in chit funds, postal savings and bank saving accounts, employee's provident funds, equity market and bonds. Though the LIC credibility has gone down very badly by the policies of the Modi's government, still Indians believes even today the LIC policies more than the government. The new industrial policy in 1991 was about to privatize the sick public sectors, liberalize the economy for fresh investments and finally to face the challenges of globalization. This was the idea behind the new policy.
However, it was well clear during that time global economic environment was also one of the reasons for India to announce the new Industrial Policy in 1991. During that time India had sever foreign exchange crisis due to the Iraq war. Indian expatriates in the Gulf region were forced to vacate their jobs. This caused fast dry in our forex reserve and struggled to face the import for the following month.
The present scenario reflect what happened before, and is still caused by the Covid-19 pandemic. Indians working abroad are made to leave their jobs including US, Europe, South East Asia and Gulf region. People in these places who cannot sustain their job anymore like to be back in India. Indian government also through various ways, is bringing the stranded Indians back home. We all know that the growth is completely down. Expatriates sending money to India is also now declining fast. However, now we have comfortable forex reserve of US$ 513.25 billion as on 10thJuly 2020. So we need not panic and also the present scenario cannot be compared with the 90s.
However, the mass exodus of Indians from the Gulf will be one of our great worries if the situation will not change in the next six months. Especially in the Southern states these money was invested and saved in various ways to help the growth of the local economy. The present unexpected crisis due to the pandemic will be gradually responsible for halting the flow of money from the Gulf. Thus can cause damage in regular savings and spending for the Indians. Let us analyze how the Covid-19 crisis is going to have an impact on India's savings.
Remittance from the Gulf region
The recent report of the Ministry of Overseas Indian Affairs states that India receives remittance from approximately more than 35 million members of the Indian diaspora living abroad. Moreover, India retained its position as the world's top recipient of remittance. In 2018 India received $79 billion as remittance from the India's expatriates (Economic Times).
The Indian community in the Gulf region alone annually contributes around 53.5 % of the total remittance to India (factly.in). In the year 2016 India received $62.70 billion, and in 2017 $68.968 billion from the Indians abroad. The high remittance from top three countries during the year 2017 are the UAE $13.823 billion, US $11.715 and Saudi Arabia $11.239 respectively. Apart from these countries remittance flow from Kuwait is also impressive. In the year 2017 India received $3.016 billion, and in 2018 $4.8 billion from the Indian expatriates in Kuwait.
Interestingly 19% of the total inward remittance to India goes to Kerala (factly.in). So it would be understood that if remittance stopped sending money then obviously the implications naturally would severe for the receiving states. The recently proposed legislation to curb Indians in Kuwait is a worrisome matter. The Kuwait Government's decision to "limiting the number of Indians not to exceed more than 15% of the total expatriate population" is sure to have an impact on India especially the state of Kerala. Already India is facing an unemployment rate mounting to the highest in 45 years. Jobless growth is not at all good for a country like India having huge population. The Modi administration should take this clarion call now. India should use our special diplomatic relationship with the Kuwait to sort out this emerging matter which is going to affect a number of Indian expatriates living and working in Kuwait. It is the right time to articulate diplomacy to keep India's interest in the issue of Kuwait's new legislation curbing Indians in the job market.
India's savings and economy
Indian households contribute to about 60 per cent of the country's savings. Auditor Gurumurthy says, "Saving culture is unique and a habit for Indians" (Business Line). Further, he says, "India's growth will come from domestic savings" (The New Indian Express). Though we have differences of opinion about this statement, but it is true that Indians save more. It is clear that Indians never work to celebrate the weekends.
At the same time India's savings plunges to 15 year low due to the slowing economy (Economic Times). It is true that the slowdown in the Indian economy is also one of the reasons for the fall in savings. But the covid-19 issue has also halted the consumers as not to spend more or save. This is because an uncertainty glooms all over the world since January 2020. Hence, everyone is determined to run their families more cautiously than the pre-covid-19 times.
However, experts also agree that "The Covid-19 uncertainty, causing rise in forced savings and slow spending" (The wire). Many of us now have turned blindly to increase our health insurance is a well-known fact. Well, this is the need of the hour. No one can deny it. At the same time the ordinary people have to spend cautiously. This is because the lockdown causes halt in job creation. Factories are closed. Moreover, cuts in salaries and specific focus for health care related consumption which is actually new to our society. All the above said factors impacted on India's savings and consumption activities. RBI study reveals that the Covid-19 related hardships made people to borrow more. If this has been the scenario, then obviously it will affect the normal Indian's life and there will be nothing to save for the ordinary people.
It is vital clear that the Covid-19 issue has a deep impact on India's ordinary people's savings. Until the people experience normal life again, there will be no way to save money. Health expert's opinions are contradicting. Even the WHO could not give a clear picture about when the normal life will resume. At this juncture savings in India will decline further. People don't have money to save. If the present situation prevails for another six months then people will be forced to take their savings to buy essential goods for their survival. This is quite natural. Covid-19 has made it a hard time for ordinary people to take extraordinary risks for their survival. It means the pandemic causes huge implications on ordinary Indian lives and their savings.

2022: Small Medium Business & Economic Development Errors
Naseem Javed
Calling Michelangelo: would Michelangelo erect a skyscraper or can an architect liberate David from a rock of marble? When visibly damaged are the global economies, already drowning their citizenry, how can their economic development departments in hands of those who never ever created a single SME or ran a business, expect anything else from them other than lingering economic agonies?
The day pandemic ends; immediately, on the next day, the panic on the center stage would be the struggling economies across the world. On the small medium business economic fronts, despite, already accepted globally, as the largest tax contributor to any nation. Visible worldwide, already abandoned and ignored without any specific solutions, there is something strategically wrong with upskilling exporters and reskilling manufacturers or the building growth of small medium business economies. The SME sectors in most nations are in serious trouble but are their economic development rightly balanced?
Matching Mindsets: Across the world, hard working citizens across the world pursue their goals and some end up with a job seeker mindset and some job creator mindset; both are good. Here is a globally proven fact; job seekers help build enterprises but job creators are the ones who create that enterprise in the first place. Study in your neighborhoods anywhere across the world and discover the difference.
Visible on LinkedIn: Today, on the SME economic development fronts of the world, clearly visible on their LinkedIn profiles, the related Ministries, mandated government departments, trade-groups, chambers, trade associations and export promotion agencies are primarily led by job seeker mindsets and academic or bureaucratic mentality. Check all this on LinkedIn profiles of economic development teams anywhere across the world.
Will jumbo-pilots do heart transplant, after all, economic performance depends on matching right competency; Needed today, post pandemic economic recovery demands skilled warriors with mastery of national mobilization to decipher SME creation and scalability of diversified SME verticals on digital platforms of upskilling for global age exportability. This fact has hindered any serious progress on such fronts during the last decade. The absence of any significant progress on digitization, national mobilization of entrepreneurialism and upskilling of exportability are clear proofs of a tragically one-sided mindset.
Is it a cruise holiday, or what? Today, the estimated numbers of all frontline economic development team members across 200 nations are roughly enough to fill the world-largest-cruise-ship Symphony that holds 6200 guests. If 99.9% of them are job-seeker mindsets, how can the global economic development fraternity sleep tonight? As many billion people already rely on their performances, some two billion in a critical economic crisis, plus one billion starving and fighting deep poverty. If this is what is holding grassroots prosperity for the last decade, when will be the best time to push the red panic button?
The Big Fallacy of "Access to Finance" Notion: The goals of banking and every major institution on over-fanaticized notions of intricate banking, taxation are of little or no value as SME of the world are not primarily looking for "Access to Capital" they are rather seeking answers and dialogue with entrepreneurial job creator mindsets. SME management and economic development is not about fancy PDF studies of recycled data and extra rubber stamps to convince that lip service is working. No, it is not working right across the world.
SME are also not looking for government loans. They do not require expensive programs offered on Tax relief, as they make no profit, they do not require free financial audits, as they already know what their financial problems are and they also do that require mechanical surveys created by bureaucracies asking the wrong questions. This is the state of SME recovery and economic development outputs and lingering of sufferings.
SME development teams across the world now require mandatory direct SME ownership experiences
The New Hypothesis 2022: The new hypothesis challenges any program on the small medium business development fronts unless in the right hands and right mindsets they are only damaging the national economy. Upon satisfactory research and study, create right equilibrium and bring job seeker and job creator mindsets to collaborate for desired results. As a start 50-50, balances are good targets, however, anything less than 10% active participation of the job creator mindset at any frontline mandated SME Ministry, department, agency or trade groups automatically raises red flags and is deemed ineffective and irrelevant.
The accidental economists: The hypothesis, further challenges, around the world, economic institutes of sorts, already, focused on past, present and future of local and global economy. Although brilliant in their own rights and great job seekers, they too lack the entrepreneurial job creator mindsets and have no experience of creating enterprises at large. Brilliantly tabulating data creating colorful illustrative charts, but seriously void of specific solutions, justifiably as their profession rejects speculations, however, such bodies never ready to bring such disruptive issues in fear of creating conflicts amongst their own job seeker fraternities. The March of Displaced cometh, the cries of the replaced by automation get louder, the anger of talented misplaced by wrong mindsets becomes visible. Act accordingly
The trail of silence: Academia will neither, as they know well their own myopic job seeker mindset. In a world where facial recognition used to select desired groups, pronouns to right gatherings, social media to isolate voting, but on economic survival fronts where, either print currency or buy riot gears or both, a new norm; unforgiveable is the treatment of small medium business economies and mishmash support of growth. Last century, laborious and procedural skills were precious, this century surrounded by extreme automation; mindsets are now very precious.
Global-age of national mobilization: Start with a constructive open-minded collaborative narrative, demonstrate open courage to allow entrepreneurial points of views heard and critically analyze ideas on mobilization of small mid size business economies. Applying the same new hypotheses across all high potential contributors to SME growth, like national trade groups, associations and chambers as their frontline economic developers must also balance with the job creator mindset otherwise they too become irrelevant. Such ideas are not just criticism rather survival strategies. Across the world, this is a new revolution to arm SME with the right skills to become masters of trade and exports, something abandoned by their economic policies. To further discuss or debate at Cabinet Level explore how Expothon is making footprints on new SME thinking and tabling new deployment strategies. Expothon is also planning a global series of virtual events to uplift SME economies in dozens of selected nations.
Two wheels of the same cart: Silence on such matters is not a good sign. Address candidly; allow both mindsets to debate on how and why as the future becomes workless and how and why small medium business sectors can become the driving engine of new economic progress. Job seekers and job creators are two wheels of the same cart; right assembly will take us far on this economic growth passage. Face the new global age with new confidence. Let the nation witness leadership on mobilization of entrepreneurialism and see a tide of SME growth rise. The rest is easy.
Rebalancing Act: China's 2022 Outlook
Ibrahim Chowdhury
Authors: Ibrahim Chowdhury, Ekaterine T. Vashakmadze and Li Yusha
After a strong rebound last year, the world economy is entering a challenging 2022. The advanced economies have recovered rapidly thanks to big stimulus packages and rapid progress with vaccination, but many developing countries continue to struggle.
The spread of new variants amid large inequalities in vaccination rates, elevated food and commodity prices, volatile asset markets, the prospect of policy tightening in the United States and other advanced economies, and continued geopolitical tensions provide a challenging backdrop for developing countries, as the World Bank's Global Economic Prospects report published today highlights.
The global context will also weigh on China's outlook in 2022, by dampening export performance, a key growth driver last year. Following a strong 8 percent cyclical rebound in 2021, the World Bank expects growth in China to slow to 5.1 percent in 2022, closer to its potential — the sustainable growth rate of output at full capacity.
Indeed, growth in the second half of 2021 was below this level, and so our forecast assumes a modest amount of policy loosening. Although we expect momentum to pick up, our outlook is subject to domestic in addition to global downside risks. Renewed domestic COVID-19 outbreaks, including the new Omicron variant and other highly transmittable variants, could require more broad-based and longer-lasting restrictions, leading to larger disruptions in economic activity. A severe and prolonged downturn in the real estate sector could have significant economy-wide reverberations.
In the face of these headwinds, China's policymakers should nonetheless keep a steady hand. Our latest China Economic Update argues that the old playbook of boosting domestic demand through investment-led stimulus will merely exacerbate risks in the real estate sector and reap increasingly lower returns as China's stock of public infrastructure approaches its saturation point.
Instead, to achieve sustained growth, China needs to stick to the challenging path of rebalancing its economy along three dimensions: first, the shift from external demand to domestic demand and from investment and industry-led growth to greater reliance on consumption and services; second, a greater role for markets and the private sector in driving innovation and the allocation of capital and talent; and third, the transition from a high to a low-carbon economy.
None of these rebalancing acts are easy. However, as the China Economic Update points out, structural reforms could help reduce the trade-offs involved in transitioning to a new path of high-quality growth.
First, fiscal reforms could aim to create a more progressive tax system while boosting social safety nets and spending on health and education. This would help lower precautionary household savings and thereby support the rebalancing toward domestic consumption, while also reducing income inequality among households.
Second, following tightening anti-monopoly provisions aimed at digital platforms, and a range of restrictions imposed on online consumer services, the authorities could consider shifting their attention to remaining barriers to market competition more broadly to spur innovation and productivity growth.
A further opening-up of the protected services sector, for example, could improve access to high-quality services and support the rebalancing toward high-value service jobs (a special focus of the World Bank report). Eliminating remaining restrictions on labor mobility by abolishing the hukou, China's system of household registration, for all urban areas would equally support the growth of vibrant service economies in China's largest cities.
Third, the wider use of carbon pricing, for example, through an expansion of the scope and tightening of the emissions trading system rules, as well power sector reforms to encourage the penetration and nationwide trade and dispatch of renewables, would not only generate environmental benefits but also contribute to China's economic transformation to a more sustainable and innovation-based growth model.
In addition, a more robust corporate and bank resolution framework would contribute to mitigating moral hazards, thereby reducing the trade-offs between monetary policy easing and financial risk management. Addressing distortions in the access to credit — reflected in persistent spreads between private and State borrowers — could support the shift to more innovation-driven, private sector-led growth.
Productivity growth in China during the past four decades of reform and opening-up has been private-sector led. The scope for future productivity gains through the diffusion of modern technologies and practices among smaller private companies remains large. Realizing these gains will require a level playing field with State-owned enterprises.
While the latter have played an instrumental role during the pandemic to stabilize employment, deliver key services and, in some cases, close local government budget gaps, their ability to drive the next phase of growth is questionable given lower profits and productivity growth rates in the past.
In 2022, the authorities will face a significantly more challenging policy environment. They will need to remain vigilant and ready to recalibrate financial and monetary policies to ensure the difficulties in the real estate sector don't spill over into broader economic distress. Recent policy loosening suggests the policymakers are well aware of these risks.
However, in aiming to keep growth on a steady path close to potential, they will need to be similarly alert to the risk of accumulating ever greater levels of corporate and local government debt. The transition to high-quality growth will require economic rebalancing toward consumption, services, and green investments. If the past is any guide to the future, the reliance on markets and private sector initiative is China's best bet to achieve the required structural change swiftly and at minimum cost.

The US Economic Uncertainty: Bitcoin Faces a Test of Resilience?
Syed Zain Abbas Rizvi
Is inflation harmful? Is inflation here to stay? And are people really at a loss? These and countless other questions along the same lines dominated the first half of 2021. Many looked for alternative investments in the national bourse, while others adopted unorthodox streams. Yes, I'm talking about bitcoin. The crypto giant hit records after records since the pandemic made us question the fundamentals of our conventional economic policies. And while inflation was never far behind in registering its own mark in history, the volatility in the crypto stream was hard to deny: swiping billions of dollars in mere days in April 2021. The surge came again, however. And it will keep on coming; I have no doubt. But whether it is the end of the pandemic or the early hues of a new shade, the tumultuous relationship between traditional economic metrics and the championed cryptocurrency is about to get more interesting.
The job market is at the most confusing crossroads in recent times. The hiring rate in the US has slowed down in the past two months, with employers adding only 199,000 jobs in December. The numbers reveal that this is the second month of depressing job additions compared to an average of more than 500,000 jobs added each month throughout 2021. More concerning is that economists had predicted an estimated 400,000 jobs additions last month. Nonetheless, according to the US Bureau of Labour Statistics, the unemployment rate has ticked down to 3.9% – the first time since the pre-pandemic level of 3.5% reported in February 2020. Analytically speaking, US employment has returned to pre-pandemic levels, yet businesses are still looking for more employees. The leverage, therefore, lies with the labor: reportedly (on average) every two employees have three positions available.
The 'Great Resignation,' a coinage for the new phenomenon, underscores this unique leverage of job selection. Sectors with low-wage positions like retail and hospitality face a labor shortage as people are better-positioned to bargain for higher wages. Thus, while wages are rising, quitting rates are record high simultaneously. According to recent job reports, an estimated 4.5 million workers quit their jobs in November alone. Given that this data got collected before the surge of the Omicron variant, the picture is about to worsen.
While wages are rising, employment is no longer in the dumps. People are quitting but not to invest stimulus cheques. Instead, they are resigning to negotiate better-paying jobs: forcing the businesses to hike prices and fueling inflation. Thus, despite high earnings, the budget for consumption [represented by the Consumer Price Index (CPI)] is rising at a rate of 6.8% (reported in November 2021). Naturally, bitcoin investment is not likely to bloom at levels rivaling the last two years. However, a downfall is imminent if inflation persists.
The US Federal Reserve sweats caution about searing gains in prices and soaring wage figures. And it appears that the fed is weighing its options to wind up its asset purchase program and hike interest rates. In March 2020, the fed started buying $40 billion worth of Mortgage-backed securities and $80 billion worth of government bonds (T-bills). However, a 19% increase in average house prices and a four-decade-high level of inflation is more than they bargained. Thus, the fed officials have been rooting for an expedited normalization of the monetary policy: further bolstered by the job reports indicating falling unemployment and rising wages. In recent months, the fed purview has dramatically shifted from its dovish sentiments: expecting no rate hike till 2023 to taper talks alongside three rate hikes in 2022.
Bitcoin now faces a volatile passage in the forthcoming months. While the disappointing job data and Omicron concerns could nudge the ball in its favor, the chances are that a depressive phase is yet to ensue. According to crypto-analysts, the bitcoin is technically oversold i.e. mostly devoid of impulsive investors and dominated by long-term holders. Since November, the bitcoin has dropped from the record high of $69,000 by almost 40%: moving in the $40,000-$41,000 range. Analysts believe that since bitcoin acts as a proxy for liquidity, any liquidity shortage could push the market into a mass sellout. Mr. Alex Krüger, the founder of Aike Capital, a New York-based asset management firm, stated: "Crypto assets are at the furthest end of the risk curve." He further added: "[Therefore] since they had benefited from the Fed's "extraordinarily lax monetary policy," it should suffice to say that they would [also] suffer as an "unexpectedly tighter" policy shifts money into safer asset classes." In simpler terms, a loose monetary policy and a deluge of stimulus payments cushioned the meteoric rise in bitcoin valuation as a hedge against inflation. That mechanism would also plummet the market with a sudden hawkish shift.
The situation is dire for most industries. Job participation levels are still low as workers are on the sidelines either because of the Omicron concern or lack of child support. In case of a rate hike, businesses would be forced to push against the wages to accommodate affordability in consumer prices. For bitcoin, the investment would stay dormant. However, any inflationary surprises could bring about an early tightening of the policy: spelling doom for the crypto market. The market now expects the job data to worsen while inflation to rise at 7.1% through December in the US inflation data (to be reported on Wednesday). Any higher than the forecasted figure alongside uncertainty imbued by the new variant could spark a downward spiral in bitcoin – probably pushing the asset below the $25000 mark.

Q: Type-error in shared variable in theano I get TypeError: an integer is required on line 5:
rng1=np.random.RandomState(1234)
dtensor = T.TensorType(dtype=theano.config.floatX,broadcastable=  (False,)*5)
V=dtensor('V')
b_shp=(W.shape[0],)
b=theano.shared(np.asarray(rng1.uniform(low=-5,high=5,size=b_shp),dtype=V.dtype),name='b',borrow=True)

However if i change b_shape to b_shp=(2,0), it gives no error.

A: My guess is that W is a symbolic tensor (e.g. a shared variable). For example,
import numpy as np
import theano
import theano.tensor as T

rng1 = np.random.RandomState(1234)
dtensor = T.TensorType(dtype=theano.config.floatX, broadcastable=(False,) * 5)
V = dtensor('V')
W = theano.shared(np.asarray(rng1.uniform(low=-5, high=5, size=(2, 3)), dtype=V.dtype), name='W', borrow=True)
b_shp = (W.shape[0],)
b = theano.shared(np.asarray(rng1.uniform(low=-5, high=5, size=b_shp), dtype=V.dtype), name='b', borrow=True)

If this assumption is correct, the error TypeError: an integer is required occurs because W.shape[0] is a symbolic expression but numpy needs a concrete integer. You could probably change it to W.get_value().shape[0] to solve the problem though this is messy and a cleaner solution would depend on what you're trying to achieve.

Welcome! Pull up a seat on the couch and stay a while. I can't believe I haven't done a post on the overall great room living space that we spend about 90% of our time in.
When we bought the house 2 1/2 years ago, the whole thing was painted in sherwin williams camelback. I hated it. Not that it is a bad color itself, just that with so much of that color it felt like the walls were closing in. Tyler actually liked it and still claims that he does, but then he also claims that this looks good. Let it be known that I painted the entire house by myself, all camelback is almost gone (3 closets left). Okay, he helped me paint the kids' bathroom, but besides that, yours truly. The new color is sherwin williams accessible beige.
If I can give you any advice, never have your house painted a color until you've lived in the house and tested out some colors first. And even then, paint a couple walls, live with it for a week, then you can decide if you really want more of that color everywhere. The camelback was just too dark for me and I knew I needed something lighter. I went to the Street of Dreams parade of homes in 2011 and found the paint color. A friend and I walked into a house and I said, "this is it. Here is my paint color." It was warm, but neutral, but gray. Perfect.
Then when I got home and looked at it on a paint-strip, it looked SO yellow. And it does still on the strip. So I thought I'd go to a slightly bluer gray and painted the living room that color. Wrong. After a couple days of a blue gray living room, totally didn't look good with the floor coloring too, I repainted it accessible beige. I haven't looked back. Now the whole house living spaces, upstairs and down, are in this color. Sometimes it has a blue hue, sometimes yellowish. It's a greige - gray brown, warm, inviting, neutral, and perfect for my space.
And in case you need more proof. Here's what the house looked like as the decorating process was beginning. Oh, camelback. (You might recognize that rug and sideboard from our bedroom). I think its amazing how different a space can look! I did like those tweed orange curtains and the color scheme together with the wall color, browns, creams, and black could look nice...but it wasn't my vision.
Okay enough of that, let's get to the real thing now. Welcome through the front door. One of the things we loved about the house when we first walked through the model was the large entry. I don't want to put anything against the walls because it will cut the visual space. Well, that and it's the running space for the kids. Reason #2 for the large open space. Run room. In case you're curious, the door you see on the left wall is a pocket door to a 1/2 bathroom.
I'm excited to show you all the things I love about my space. It's constantly evolving, but that's what makes it fun! The very first thing I knew was I wanted full length curtains. I wanted to treat the huge wall of windows and sliding door as one unit. I had to rig several curtain rods together to get the length I wanted, but it worked!
It was hard to start from nothing.
People ask me how to start decorating.
Not that I'm good at it, but what worked for me to get a small step forward was to pick colors that I love. I like the idea of looking at what you like to wear and translating that to your home. Blue has been my favorite color for a long time. And blue, cream/white, and browns...perfect for me.
We've had so many layouts of furniture in this room. From couches in front of the sliding back door, to swapping walls with the tv, from smaller rugs to bigger rugs, sideboard included and then not, etc. This is the nature of changing things up. Eventually I'll get bored with some of this and experiment with something new. I'm not spectacular at putting all this together, I'm just good at trial and error. Then moving forward with something else. :) So if you have any ideas about layout, what I should or shouldn't include in decorating, more pictures, less, ugly mantle decor, etc. Really, really I want to know. I can take it. Anything?
Our home office also extends off this space. I know there's some people who don't like the open floor plan because it showcases the kitchen (and potential dirty dishes) so much. I really like it and it helps me keep the kitchen clean, too. We can all be in the same space without stepping on each other.
Our tv console is waiting for our 2-year-old to get older. It actually came with just drawers on the bottom row, but we added doors (that fold down) on the top row. These protect the cable machine, dvd player, and wii. I'll be excited to repaint and add knobs to this. We are going to wait a little longer until I know the dvd's won't be coming out all day long. So for now, I'm on the hunt for 6 drawer pulls. I think it will be a good ikea hack when it's done!
And the rug. Ahhhh, the rug. I love it. We had the other beige and cream one (that you can see above...that is now in our bedroom) and I was searching for a long time for the one. This one is 9x12 and gives the whole pop to the room. So many things are neutral, but it's a lot of fun to have something so large be such a statement. I ordered it online and it arrived just as I hoped it would. It's an indoor/outdoor rug, so not super thick, but a really nice carpet pad for under $50 makes it feel dreamy to walk on.
Even though I like the look of two couches facing each other, I really like letting light in. And we access the backyard so much from here that I don't want one of my couches to get super dirty from small hands.
So instead I got this amazing tufted nail-head chair. Seriously. It can't get better than this. I keep thinking, "I can put more of these all over my house, right?" I'm not sure, but I know I love this one.
Behind my chair, which Tyler still tries to claim as his idea, are some display shelves. I felt like I was lacking places to decorate. But you know, it's stressful trying to make them look good! I'm always browsing ideas and I am glad I got them. For now, the bottom two shelves are empty. Again, that's what having small children in your house looks like. Time and a season for everything. Now he's tall enough that he's starting to rearrange the books on the third shelf!
I love the bookends I found. The corral reminds me of the amazing ocean that's so close to us here in Portland. I know blue and white is the nautical theme base, but I don't want that to be the total vibe in our home. That said, I do love the sea, so small things are always welcome.
The old radio is completely real. It was a $5 score from a garage sale. The bulbs and cords are still in and stored inside the back. Very cool.
This was a present I found on my shelf. A certain 7-year-old boy is saving this cool specimen for later examination. I love their curiosity.
From here we go to the couches and coffee table. Since the space was large, and we didn't want to have a sectional (we wanted to have walking spaces), we went with two sofas. They are light, but have washed up well when needed. I think it's just important that you train your kids that food belongs in the kitchen or at the table. Very important.
The coffee table took forever to decide on. I had several others from craigslist before we came to this. That's how decorating goes. Sometimes I wished that I would walk in and it was just finished. Instead it took lots of time, swapping, and sweat to put it all together. But you know, I'd rather have it that way. I really feel like I own the look. Also, it was fun to watch my husband really get into it. I feel like our home is a representation of both our ideas. He'll see things and comment on them as much as I will. If you had to pin it down, I would say we're rustic elegance. There's an industrial edge that we really like, clean lines that are a little cold, but mixed with the soft tufted and flowing of materials.
Okay, coffee table. It was once a desk, but we chopped off the legs and made it into a coffee table. In our office we needed more desk space, but loved this piece of furniture. Two problems solved! New desks purchased and coffee table decided on. The drawers become handy places for cars, trains, and small toys - the only toys allowed to stay downstairs overnight.
Do you have a cuddle blanket in your living room? We have two and they were driving me crazy lumped on the couch or floor. Thanks you basket. Easy solution!
How about pillows? I like a variety of pillows and they are so easy to make. I made the yellow floral and blue floral pillows. Also, the chevron blue and white pillow (by cutting striped fabric at an angle and resewing back together). Recently, I've been thinking of different patterns but all the same color...maybe a blue color like this would mix well with what I have going on? Or orange? Or green?
I love our mantel. When we first moved in, there was nothing there. We basically built a box and mounted it to the wall. The boards were plain and we banged them up with screw drivers, awls, and other tools. Then we stained them dark and and screwed them together. The artwork here changes out along with the shelves. Right now they are both bright-themed in honor of summer. The bird art is from the Kathy Panton Etsy shop.
I love horses. Tyler thinks that all girls do. Maybe we do. Even though I grew up in Montana, I didn't own horses, we lived in a regular neighborhood. Seriously, look at how chiseled and majestic they are. I printed this photo from a find online, thanks to someone's instagram. I'd love a cool looking horse statue somewhere in my house.
The mirror above the mantel was a craigslist find, spray painted white. I was looking for something with ornate edges. I didn't think I'd go oval, but then it ends up working out well with so many other square edges in the room. I've also decided that I love having a plant on the mantel. Something living in the room warms it up a lot.
The picture frames on the wall are filled with black and white pictures of my kids...in the theme of dress-up. They are wearing fairy wings, cowboys outfits, batman's suit, and funny noses. It is hard to narrow down the thousands of pictures, but deciding on a theme made it so much easier! Another idea is to choose pictures from a single event. I can't get enough of gallery walls and have one brewing for our loft (reveal to come).
This is the light, people. For real. I loved it the first time I saw it. And then I saw something similar in Keri Russel's home and loved it even more - she has awesome home style. I feel like this adds elegance to the space when there's lots of industrial and rustic accents.
From the living room, you can see the kitchen and dining room. I love the huge open space in the middle, room to run and play for the kids. It's also handy when we entertain. I'm working on putting together our next Comedy Night.
You can see our House Rules posted to remind the kids that we do have some set things we hold to. It's fun to have them refer to them and read them out-loud to their friends.
The table we built is still one of our favorite projects. We finished it the end of last summer and haven't regretted a moment of it. It has seated up to 12 bodies - great for birthday parties and dinner parties. Also amazing for the kids to do projects. They can be working on one end while the other end is being prepared to eat dinner. I love how it looks and the girth it portrays. You can't get much more industrial than that!
The drum light above the table was a random antique store find. I'd been on the look-out for one, clean beautiful lines, and found this for a great deal. The print on the far wall of the dining area is a street layout of Chicago, IL. Tyler served a mission for our church there and still thinks often of the growth he achieved and craziness he saw. I've searched for the dealer of the print and can't find it, sorry. I found it on fab.com.
On one of the entry walls I have silhouettes I made of the kids. I can't believe it's been 2 years since I made these! I thought I'd update them through the years, but I think I'll leave them. It's such a good capture of their little-ness.
On the other wall I hung a picture that I took at Seaside Beach. There was a huge log covered with barnacles on shore, too cool to pass up a picture. Like I said, I love the ocean and in small ways, want it present in our home. There's something grand and powerful in it. I guess much like horses to me.
And here's we've come full circle. Shoes off at the door, under the bench. The bottom of the stairs is the fast time-out place for the kids as well as a great well-lit place to play. I want to keep things simple here, letting the arches and openness of the floor plan speak for itself.
I hope you enjoy your home. And if not, make a plan, find colors that you love, and know that it will take time, trial, and experimenting to figure it out. Even then, you'll still have more projects. It's all part of the fun!
You've created a really beautiful space. I love it.
I love the coffee table and the tufted chair!
Thanks, Kayla. I hope you're settling into your new place!
You're gorgeous. Also, I love that your doing the Nectar Collective Weekly Wishes. I've seriously thought about that and her snail mail connections for the past 2 days. Thanks for the tip off to positivity!
So excited to see you posted this. Love everything about your great room, thanks for sharing such amazing ideas!
It took me long enough. :) Thanks!
This is exciting and everything looks beautiful! Great job and cheers to hardwood floors.
Wow, wow, wow!!!! It's gorgeous! That rug is amaaaazing, and those chairs are great... and so are those cool open shelves!
I love your table and chairs!
Your house is beautiful! Love the floors!!! Do you know what kind of wood?
The light fixture is beautiful, table & chairs awesome, the bookends & radio are fantastic.
I can't remember the type of wood...although there might be a box on a top garage shelf that is left over. It is fake wood, holding up perfectly to lots of use!
Oooo! I love your living room! It looks super comfortable and 'home-y"! Lol I also really like that rug! Cute!
Nice post. It looks a lot better after repainting the walls. Thanks for the post.


A commercial DWI conviction can result in the loss of how you earn a living.
Holders of a commercial driver license (CDL) are considered professional drivers and are thus held to higher standards promulgated by the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) and the United State Department of Transportation (USDOT). While other Texas drivers are considered driving while intoxicated (DWI) if they have a blood or breath alcohol level of .08 or above, a CDL operator is considered intoxicated with a BAC of .04 or above.
If you are a CDL holder facing a commercial DWI charge, contact attorney J. Michael Price II right away. A commercial DWI conviction carries those severe penalties associated with a DWI charge and has additional penalties that involve serious risk to your life as a career driver.
What Are the Penalties for A Commercial DWI Conviction?
If convicted of a commercial DWI, a CDL holder will lose his or her professional license for no less than one year. While there is the possibility of appealing a license revocation, they are rarely successful. If a CDL holder was transporting hazardous material while they were driving while intoxicated, the CDL holder will lose his or her license for 3 years.
Furthermore, if you are convicted a second time for commercial DWI, you will have your CDL permanently revoked. Additionally, if you have been previously convicted of a commercial DWI and you subsequently refuse a breath or blood alcohol test, you can have your CDL permanently revoked.
The stakes are even higher for those charged with commercial DWI. Attorney J. Michael Price II is here to fight against the personal and professional consequences a commercial DWI conviction carries.
Driving is your life. It is your livelihood. If that is taken away, it can be extremely difficult to get back on track. A DWI charge does not need to turn into a conviction. Board certified criminal law specialist, by the Texas Board of Legal Specialization. Attorney J Michael Price II will tirelessly fight for you and your right to continue your career as a professional driver. Contact Mike today if you have been charged with commercial DWI.

Q: Convert row names in multiple data frames to column in data frame I have a list of .csv files that I have read in to R and placed in a large data frame called data that consists of 6 data.frames which are the 6 files in filenames. My code so far is:
filenames <- list.files( paste(mainDirInput,sep=""), pattern="Out.*csv", full.names=TRUE)
data = lapply(filenames, function(f) {
wb = read.csv(f, header=TRUE)
})

The row names and column names in each data.frame are exactly the same, I would like to extract the row names and instead have them as the first column in R. An example of one of my data frames would be like this:
            w    x    y    z
2012 01     12   43   87   09
2012 02     14   53   75   76
2012 03     76   34   76   28
2012 04     41   36   85   16
  :         :    :    :    :
  :         :    :    :    :

I need to be able to use this code on other files as well, so I can't simply just create a new column with the values 2012 01, 2012 02, 2012 03...

A: Youve got a dataframe with columns named "w,x,y,z" . Just do
data$names <- rownames(data)

to add a new column.
edit
In response to Boogie's query, here's lapply with an anonymous function to do the loop.
   foo = as.data.frame(matrix(1:15,3,5))
    rownames(foo) <-c('frist','prime','lastly')
    foo
    bar = list(foo,t(foo), rbind(foo,foo))
    bar[[1]] = as.data.frame( foo)
    bar[[2]] =data.frame( t(foo))
    bar[[3]] = data.frame(rbind(foo,foo))
    bar
    bar = lapply(bar,FUN= function(x) { x$date <-rownames(x);return(x)})
    bar

Professor Vakhtang Putkaradze is our Flaherty Visiting Professor for 2018/19 and is visiting TU Dublin. He is from the Department of Mathematical and Statistical Sciences, University of Alberta, Edmonton, Canada.
He will present his Flaherty Lecture, in association with the School of Mathematical Sciences, Technological University Dublin, on Thursday, 11th April at 6.30 pm in TU Dublin, City Campus, Aungier Street, Room AUG-018.
Abstract: Why study mathematics when computers have become so clever? Won't computers eventually solve all our problems, and we just need to find the right way to feed them information?" In this talk, we shall consider examples of why modern technology and leading industries demand higher-than-ever levels of mathematical knowledge, contrary to the 'computers can solve everything' viewpoint. We shall also discuss the importance of nurturing the free creative spirit in mathematics research. The examples that will be explored will range from renewable energy, sensor development and mathematics of sports, to recent start-ups from Silicon Valley.


Almost every morning at work (at about 920 AM) you will find me in the pantry area playing barista, trying to craft the perfect coffee brew from a less than perfect coffee machine. The "CAPPUCINO" button does a half-decent job of frothing up the machine's creamer… but too much of it and it starts to overwhelm with that pasty-powdery dairy taste. The shot of espresso dished out following the creamer cycle starts off strong, but soon weakens into a dilute, stale americano. My German colleague often chuckles as he watches me pull the cup away intermittently at precise intervals to avoid water-logging my drink, finally topping up with fresh milk, splenda (don't laugh) and an extra spoon of Kenco.
But enough about my failed barista aspirations. I've found what has to be the Mona Lisa of all coffees just minutes down the road from my place. NudeEspresso sits on Hanbury Street, sandwiched between the hustle-bustle of Spitalfields market and BrickLane. They take the art of making coffee pretty seriously here and boy do they know how to make one heck of a flat-white.
Absolutely beautiful isn't it. I've never seen such perfectly formed, symmetric tulip-rings from the steam milk finish before. It looked so gorgeous, I found it difficult to work up the courage to add sugar at risk of ruining the work of art yet alone drink it. But when you finally dare to sip this remarkable cup of coffee, what greets you is a smoothe, foamy rich, sumptuous elixir that is bold yet perfectly balanced. Puts my daily coffee pursuits in the pantry to shame.
A great cuppa coffee and for me, the best I've tasted in London to date.
ooh that looks awesome guan. i have yet to try an amazing mind boggling cup of coffee yet – anywhere.
Annabel, it is a seriously smoothe cup of coffee I tell you! Are you still in the states? When are you back in London? We should catch up when/if you are back in town over a cuppa.


High up in the Andes mountains in Chile grows a remarkable bush: The wild rose plant. Its bright red fruits (hips) contain seeds that are rich in an oil with remarkable properties.
I first came across this Chilean oil 10 years ago when I was sent a sample from Chile. Having come across this oil locally, I was familiar with a pale yellow colour and a slightly fishy smell. The sample I had from Chile, however, was rich orange/red oil with a fresh clean smell. After some research I realised that the oil I had been sent was virgin cold pressed while the other I had known was a poorer quality. I also realised that the fishy smell was the process of the oil going rancid. I was amazed how a simple oil could work so well – and when I researched it I found several papers that cited how effective Rose Hip Oil was for treating post-surgery scarring, acne scarring and premature wrinkles due to sun damage.
Fatty Acids: Rose Hip Oil has one of the highest levels of essential fatty acids known. 46 % Linoleic acid and 34 % Linolenic acid. Essential fatty acids are necessary to maintain a healthy skin (both internally & externally), as they are required for cell membranes and are also prostaglandin precursors, providing hormone-like effects, tissue-regenerating and rejuvenation.
Antioxidants: Ascorbic acid, lycopene, lutein, rubixanthin, xanthophyll & zeaxanthin (carotenoids) & flavonoids . These antioxidants give the Rose Hip Oil its typical orange/ red colour. The more intense the colour the higher the antioxidant content. Antioxidants protect our cells from free radical damage.
Retin: A licensed for use for wrinkles and acne. This cream, however, has side effects such as excessive dry, red , swollen or blistering. The exact mode of action of retinoic acid is not understood but research suggests that retinoic acid may activate cell receptors resulting in increased cell growth. Rose Hip oil is rich in trans retinoic acid in its natural state (retinol). Since it does not act alone but is one ingredient amongst many, Rose Hip Oil does not have any of the side effects shown by synthetic retinoic acid. Perhaps its high fatty acid and antioxidant content protect the skin . Whatever the mode of action the end result is wrinkle reduction particularly from sun damage without irritation or any dryness. In fact, elasticity & radiance are restored.
Quercetin & Iso Quercetin Flavinoids: that show antioxidant and anti-inflammatory action. Studies have shown quercetin to inhibit the formation of pro-inflammatory prostaglandins and leukotrienes. Other studies have also shown quercetin to inhibit the activity of the enzyme responsible for the breakdown of elastin thereby increasing the elasticity of the skin. Research also shows quercetin to help reduce the formation of keloid & hypertrophic scarring through its action of inhibiting neutrophil contraction & fibroblasts involved in scar formation as well as stabilising cell membranes. Finally, its action as an antioxidant has been shown particularly protecting the skin from damages caused by UVB radiation.
Catechins & Epicatechin: Powerful bioflavonoids & polyphenols known for their protective antioxidant activity, promoting healthy circulation & free radical protection.
Little did I know that a few years later I would need it myself. When a lump in my neck developed and grew bigger and bigger I decided to visit my doctor. Something that happens once every 10 years thankfully. They took a biopsy and said it was cancer but they weren't sure. Like all people in health and healing, I knew it was not cancer, but allowed the surgeon to remove the lump anyway. Thankfully it came back clear and I have a beautiful scar on my neck that reminds me how lucky I was and to live life every day full of love and appreciation. Our Rose Hip Oil was my saviour and I applied it straight after surgery on my stitches knowing that it would help the healing process and my scar.

Spark Therapeutics' and Novartis Luxturna gene therapy for a rare inherited eye disease has been okayed by European regulators, paving the way for an EU licence in the coming months.
A marketing authorisation from the European Commission is usually a formality within a few months now that the European Medicines Agency's Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use (CHMP) has given its positive opinion.
Luxturna (voretigene neparvovec) is a one-time gene therapy for the treatment of adult and pediatric patients with vision loss due to inherited retinal dystrophy caused by confirmed biallelic RPE65 mutations and who have sufficient viable retinal cells.
Positive CHMP opinion is based on data from a phase 1 clinical trial, its follow-up trial and a phase III trial that together enrolled 43 participants with inherited retinal disease caused by mutations on both copies of the RPE65 gene.
There was no immediate word from Novartis or Spark about the cost of the therapy – but in the US where the drug was approved late last year, the biotech charges $850,000 at full price.
A Novartis spokesperson said: "It's premature to discuss pricing details as the product is not approved by regulatory authorities outside of the US.
In January Novartis and Spark struck a licensing deal giving the Swiss pharma ex-US rights to Luxturna.
Katherine High, president and head of R&D at Spark Therapeutics, said: "We are encouraged by today's decision, which further affirms our pioneering clinical program and brings Luxturna one step closer to patients with inherited retinal disease (IRD) caused by mutations in both copies of the RPE65 gene in the European Union.
Last year, pharmaphorum spoke with Allison Corona, one of the first patients treated in the trials used to approve Luxturna.
The therapy does not restore full vision, but allows people with the disease to see well enough to read and socialise. Patients with the condition perceive the world as shadowy and indistinct.

Doping rocks World Swimming
Our Staff Reporter
SHANGHAI (AFP) - US swimming great Michael Phelps returned to China Wednesday looking for the form that swept him into the history books at the Beijing Olympics, as a major doping row clouded the world championships. Phelps, who has caused concern with some stuttering swims this year, made a low-key arrival at Shanghai's Pudong Airport, looking unshaven and wearing a baseball cap. He did not speak to media and was whisked away on a USA team bus. "Weeeee twitter DOES work Here at last," he tweeted afterwards, referring to China's ban on the popular microblogging site. Phelps could take part in up to seven events in Shanghai, which would give him a shot at eclipsing the five gold medals he won in 2009 as he tries to kick-start his preparations for next year's London Olympics. The Baltimore native already has 14 Olympic titles at the age of just 26, including the eight he won at Beijing's Watercube -- the greatest performance Olympic swimming has ever seen. And the Shanghai championships, whose diving, water polo and synchronised swimming are well under way at gleaming new venues, would welcome some Phelps heroics after a high-profile dope case hovered over the opening week. On Wednesday, Brazilian sprinter Cesar Cielo, one of the sport's biggest stars, attended a six-hour Court of Arbitration for Sport tribunal which will decide whether to hand out a ban that could wreck his Olympic chances. Cielo, wearing a dark suit and sunglasses, smiled but did not speak to media as he left with three team-mates who also tested positive for a banned diuretic in May. All four were let off with a warning by Brazilian officials. The 24-year-old Olympic and double world champion has blamed a contaminated food supplement for testing positive for furosemide, which is sometimes used to mask other drugs and is proscribed by the World Anti-Doping Agency. Governing body FINA has asked CAS to suspend the swimmers and annul their results since May. The court has promised to hand down a judgement by Friday in the case, before the championships' swimming events start on Sunday. FINA has also tightened its anti-doping procedures at the worlds by reintroducing blood testing, alongside urine sampling. And athletes at the world championships have been urged only to eat at designated restaurants in Shanghai to avoid meat contaminated with banned clenbuterol, which Chinese farmers sometimes feed to pigs and cattle. In Wednesday's action, Greek swimmer Spyros Gianniotis dethroned German title-holder Thomas Lurz -- the unofficial king of open water swimming -- to win the 10km crown, his first world championships gold. Gianniotis, who has repeatedly lost out to Lurz at major events, finally topped the podium after touching in 1hr 54min 24.7sec in baking conditions at Jinshan City Beach. "I've trained several years for that. It feels good," he said. "It was very hard these last two months because I had an injury. I tried to never stop swimming and I did it." Competitors were tracked with high-tech sonar equipment during the gruelling event to address safety concerns following the death of America's 2009 10km bronze medallist Fran Crippen during a race last year. In diving, China's Hu Yadan and Chen Ruolin led the women's 10m semi-final standings as the hosts pursue a sweep of all 10 gold medals, with six already in the bag. And Russian synchronised swimming queen Natalia Ishchenko celebrated the 14th title of her record-breaking world championships career with gold in the solo free event. Medals Table Country Gold Silver Bronze Total China 6 5 1 12 Russia 4 1 1 6 Greece 1 0 1 2 Great Britain 1 0 0 1 Germany 0 2 2 4 Spain 0 1 3 4 Italy 0 1 1 2 Australia 0 1 1 2 Canada 0 1 0 1 Mexico 0 0 1 1 Ukraine 0 0 1 1

Harman-Baweja-Bipasha-Basu
Star couple Bipasha Basu and Harman Baweja's relationship status has been the talk of the town for a while now. While some rumours point towards an impending marriage, Harman clarifies, "If it (marriage with Bipasha) is meant to happen, then it will. In case it does not, there will be a better path which will open up."
"Marriage is a very natural process and it cannot be planned," he adds. "I am not much of a planner. In fact I don't ever plan anything. These things are driven by emotions," he says.
Bipasha, too, seems to agree with Harman and wants to wait for the right time. "He is right," she adds. "I have been saying this to my mother as well. She keeps asking me when we will get married. It will happen when it is the right time. I am in no hurry," she says, clarifying that no one is pressuring them into marriage.

The two, who were in Delhi recently to launch their chain of fitness centres, also insist on keeping their personal life away from public glare. "Our families and close friends are the ones who matter. They have the right to ask questions and they need to know things. Other than that, some things are just personal," says Harman.
How is it being business partners, we ask, and he says, "We've known each other for long. We are thorough professionals when it comes to our work.But once it is over, we don't continue to have work discussions."

Adobe Crack Download Free 2022
Full Free And Pro Version
Adobe Creative Cloud, also referred to as Adobe CC, is a collection of software applications developed for computers running the Mac OS and Windows operating systems. These applications allow professionals in the fields of design, marketing, and creative work to produce content for print, video, and online distribution. There is a limited selection of Creative Cloud programs that are also compatible with mobile devices running iOS and Android. The software that is included in Creative Cloud may be put to use in a diverse range of graphic design and design-related tasks, including the production of flyers, brochures, full-motion films, websites, presentations, and the editing of photographs, amongst other tasks. There are a variety of Creative Cloud programs that may be purchased separately or as part of an all-encompassing bundle.
What Can You Do With Adobe Creative Cloud?
In the fields of graphic design, video editing, web development, and photography, Creative Cloud is an extremely versatile tool that can be utilized for almost any project. The programs offered by Adobe Creative Cloud are extremely popular among experts in their respective fields. Since its release in 2003, Adobe Premiere Pro, for instance, has been put to use as a non-linear video editing program for the purpose of editing a broad variety of feature films and television shows in a variety of professional capacities. Premiere Pro was used to make daily edits as well as basic edits on James Cameron's "Avatar," which is the film with the most grossing of all time. In this capacity, the program was also utilized in films such as "Deadpool" and "Gone Girl," which was directed by David Fincher. Newspapers such as the New York Times utilize InDesign from the Creative Cloud for this reason. On the other hand, practically every major magazine publisher and new website uses Photoshop. The Creative Cloud also contains programs for print design.
What Can You Expect From Creative Cloud?
The Adobe Creative Cloud is a suite of applications that enables users to work together on creative projects. In the realm of online creation, for instance, Creative Cloud provides virtually everything that one would want in order to construct completely working websites from the bottom up, and this is true regardless of whether or not one has the skills to code. The Creative Cloud gives users access to tools that may be used to work on a variety of projects, including desktop publishing, desktop video editing, and mobile design. Documents and projects created with Creative Cloud may also be saved in the cloud. Cloud-based documents and projects not only allow users' files to be accessed from any device with an active Internet connection, but users also have the ability to share their works with other people.
The following are some of the available subscription packages for Creative Cloud:
For around ten dollars per month, customers are granted access to Lightroom CC, Photoshop CC, and either one terabyte (TB) or twenty gigabytes (GB) of cloud storage. This plan was developed expressly with photographers in mind. This is a subscription charge that is paid on a monthly basis, just like all of the other Creative Cloud choices. Users have the option to acquire simply Lightroom CC with 1 terabyte of cloud storage for the same price as purchasing both products together.
For around $20 per month, users are granted access to one desktop software from Creative Cloud (such as Photoshop CC, Illustrator CC, or Adobe XD CC), in addition to receiving 100 GB of cloud storage space.
Every App
At a cost of around $50 per month, customers who subscribe to this plan will get access to the whole library of more than 20 Creative Cloud desktop and mobile apps, in addition to 100 GB of cloud storage.
In addition, corporations, schools, students, and teachers all have the opportunity to take advantage of discounted pricing options.
The Step-by-Step Guide to Downloading Adobe Creative Cloud
The Adobe Creative Cloud applications that are included in a user's subscription plan may be downloaded from the user's account dashboard after the user has selected and paid for the right subscription plan for their needs inside the Adobe Creative Cloud. If a user, for example, buys for the Photography plan, choices to download both Lightroom CC and Photoshop CC would be available on Adobe.com (after the user has signed in).
Access to supplemental features, such as fonts from Adobe Typekit or photos that do not require a license fee, is available without leaving the program itself. Take note that there are also mobile versions of the Creative Cloud applications, and that these mobile versions may be obtained via the app stores that are specific to each mobile platform. If a user wanted to download the mobile version of Photoshop, for example, they would first need to connect into their Creative Cloud account after downloading the app from the iTunes App Store.
How many different kinds of computers are compatible with Creative Cloud?
Each Creative Cloud app license allows for the software to be downloaded and activated on a maximum of two separate computers. Because pricing is typically determined on a per-license basis, it is important to keep in mind that if two users who are employed by the same company wanted to use an application like Photoshop, they would be required to purchase two separate licenses in accordance with the terms of service established by Adobe. Both of those individuals, however, have the ability to install Photoshop on a total of two different computers apiece.
If you try to install any Creative Cloud software on a third computer, the other two will become inactive until you remove the third machine from the installation process. When this occurs, the user has the option of reactivating their license on any of the two machines that were previously used.
Which Applications Are Included in Adobe's Creative Cloud Membership?
There are over 20 distinct apps available for purchase as part of the Creative Cloud suite, and users have the option to acquire the software in either a la carte fashion or as a whole collection. They are as follows:
Acrobat: Users are able to generate, read, and modify PDF documents when they have Acrobat installed on their computers.

Dreamweaver: An program for creating websites that uses both code and a graphical user interface.

Note that Adobe Encore, which was developed for video disc production, and Adobe Fireworks, which was a web-based image editor, have both been discontinued by Adobe. However, subscribers of Creative Cloud may still use both products by downloading them from the Adobe website.
Additionally, Creative Cloud provides mobile applications that are suitable for use on either the iOS or Android operating systems. The following are some examples, however the list is not exhaustive:
Adobe Capture CC is a tool that may be used to convert a photograph into a color scheme, pattern, or a one-of-a-kind brush. Color CC, Brush CC, Hue CC, and Shape CC are some of the other minor programs that are included in the breakdown of Capture into its component parts.

The Beginnings of Adobe's Creative Cloud
The Adobe Creative Cloud is the next iteration of Adobe's Creative Suite software. On May 7, 2012, the sixth generation of Creative Suite, often known as CS6, became available to the public for the first time. Photoshop, Acrobat, and Premiere Pro were among the many other applications, including those designed to assist with web building, video editing, and graphic design, that were included in the package when it was launched.
In October of 2011, the initial version of what is now known as Adobe Creative Cloud was published. This version brought together a variety of tools that were previously available separately for graphic design, video editing, web development, and photography.
The most significant difference between Creative Cloud and its predecessor, the Creative Suite, was found in the license terms. The Creative Suite and the eLearning Suite were both offered with a software license that was valid for an infinite amount of time, whereas the Creative Cloud was made accessible on a pay-per-use basis.
Instead of giving users the option to purchase one license for Photoshop that they would be able to access and use forever, users of the Creative Cloud versions of the apps are required to pay for it monthly as part of the Creative Cloud subscription of their choosing. This is in contrast to the previous option, which gave users the ability to purchase one license for Photoshop that they would be able to access and use forever. This was initially received with a certain bit of controversy; but, since the industry as a whole has transitioned to subscription-based service models across the board over the course of the previous several years, the criticism that was first voiced has mostly evaporated.
Adobe's primary argument in support of the subscription model was that it made it possible to roll out significant feature upgrades more often across the board to all of the products that were included, so basically doing away with the traditional release cycle. This development also made it possible for Adobe to move their operations to the cloud, which is a strategy that has been increasingly common in recent years.
Tutorial on How to Use Creative Cloud
People who are interested in enhancing their knowledge of Creative Cloud applications have a broad variety of alternative possibilities open to them based on the specifics of their circumstances. It is possible, for instance, to receive training in a traditional classroom setting, which provides a more intimate and individualized education despite its strict organizational parameters. Students in these Creative Cloud training classes would not only have access to an instructor in the room at all times, but they would also have the opportunity to ask specific questions to an expert. This is the ideal option for people who require individual attention because it provides that attention.
There is also the option of taking individual classes, which can range from general discussions on the Creative Cloud suite as a whole to more narrowly focused instruction on a specific program. These kind of programs are frequently offered by a variety of organizations in big cities such as Boston, New York City, and Philadelphia. One such institution is the American Graphics Institute, which is only one example. Depending on the requirements of each individual student, these classes can either be taken in person or through live online training.
Private training sessions for Adobe Creative Cloud are also available, and they may be purchased either as a single lesson or as part of a bigger program. Sessions of this kind often take place either on-site at a specific location (for business users), at a specialized training center, or even remotely via the Internet. Business users typically attend on-site classes. These lessons frequently take the shape of individualized instruction, workshop sessions, or even seminar presentations. Custom courses may be a wonderful way to not only learn more about a particular Creative Cloud program, but also to do so within the context of the specific activity or profession that a student is presently concentrating on. This can be a really helpful combination of knowledge.
People who learn more effectively via hands-on experience as opposed to sitting in a typical classroom setting may also find that learning Creative Cloud on their own is the best option for them. Students have the ability to learn at their own speed with the help of the many first party books that are available straight from Adobe. Students have the ability to develop their own bespoke approach to how they choose to progress their content production, video editing, photography, and print-based abilities using resources that are provided by other providers such as the American Graphics Institute. These providers provide similar materials.
A lot of students decide to mix their Creative Cloud lessons, beginning their adventure in a classroom setting that is more traditional and then continuing their study with private sessions as their objectives (or even their jobs) continue to grow and develop in the future.

At least one member of the ministry attends the funeral Mass.
We send Mass cards and sympathy cards to the family and offer continuing support to them as needed. Our support group meets on the third Thursday of every other month at 7pm in the Pope Francis Room in the Faith Formation Center, and is open to anyone who is experiencing a loss or going through the grieving process.
The ministry also facilitates the All Soul's Mass, as well as the Easter and Christmas Memorials.
