Child landmine victims rise, Afghanistan and Colombia rank worst
By Anastasia Moloney
By Anastasia Moloney BOGOTA (Thomson Reuters Foundation) - Afghanistan has the world's highest number of children killed or wounded by landmines and other explosive remnants of war, followed by Colombia, according to a leading anti-landmine group. In its annual Landmine Monitor report, the International Campaign to Ban Landmines and Cluster Munition Coalition (ICBL-CMC) said the number of recorded casualties of mines and other explosive remnants of war has decreased to the lowest level since 1999, but child victims have risen. In 2013, children made up almost half of the 2,403 civilian landmine casualties worldwide whose age was known, 7 percent more than the previous year, the report said. Afghanistan had 487 child casualties in 2013 - nearly half of the world's child landmine victims last year - followed by Colombia with 57 child casualties and Syria coming in a close third, it said. In the Democratic Republic of Congo, Yemen and South Sudan, children comprise at least 75 percent of civilians killed or wounded by landmines and unexploded ordnance, the report found. "Children in general are more likely to deliberately handle explosive devices than adults, often unknowingly, out of curiosity, or by mistaking them for toys," ICBL-CMC said in its latest fact sheet. Boys make up the majority of child landmine casualties worldwide, the report said. Boys, who tend to participate more in outdoor activities like herding livestock, gathering wood and food, or collecting scrap metal, are more likely to come into contact with mines and unexploded ordnance, it said. COLOMBIA'S REBEL GROUPS In Colombia, the country's largest rebel group, the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia (FARC), planted most of the landmines and explosive devices across rural areas as part of its 50-year war against the government. The conflict has made the South American country one of the most mine-scarred in the world. As the Colombian government and FARC commanders hold two-year-old peace talks in Cuba in a bid to end the war - without a ceasefire on either side - the country's landmine victim tally continues to rise. "All Colombians need to push forward with the task of promoting a special agreement on mines as part of the peace talks and before any eventual peace deal is signed. This is the only way the number of mine casualties will be reduced," said Alvaro Jimenez, head of the Colombian Campaign to Ban Landmines, part of ICBL-CMC's global network. Earlier this year, the Colombian anti-mine group urged peace negotiators to consider humanitarian landmine clearance while the talks are underway. "We're still waiting for a response to our proposal," Jimenez told the Thomson Reuters Foundation in a telephone interview. Nearly 11,000 Colombians have been wounded or killed by landmines and unexploded ordnance since 1990 - 1,101 of whom were children, according to latest government figures.

Two Reps defect to APC
Admin December 15, 2020 in News, Politics Tagged 2020, APC, defect, Nigeria, Reps - 2 Minutes
The All Progressives Congress (APC) in the House of Representatives in Tuesday gained two more members following the defection of Hon. Aliyu Datti Yakwo (PDP, Kano) and Hon. Danjuma Usman (APGA, Taraba) to the APC.
The letters of defection by the two lawmakers were read on the floor of the House during Tuesday plenary by Speaker of the House, Hon. Femi Gbajabiamila amidst protest by the leadership of the minority leadership describing the defection as illegal.
Hon. Aliyu who defeated Abdulmuminu Jibril of the APC in a rerun election in 2019 said he was leaving the PDP because of existing crisis in the party that has generated division within the party in the state.
On his part, Hon. Danjuma also said that the All Progressive Grand Alliance was currently saddled with internal crisis that has made it impossible for him to actualise his political aspirations.
However, in his point of order, Minority Leader of the House, Hon. Ndudi Elumelu drew the attention of the House to the provisions of section 68 (1a) of the constitution which stipulates that any member who leaves the party in whose platform he was elected should lose his seat.
He said from his discussion with the leadership of the PDP in Kano state, there was no evidence of any crisis within the party, adding that as a man of integrity who took an oath to defend the law, the Speaker has a responsibility to declare the seat of the two lawmakers vacant.
Elumelu said the issue of defection may sound funny at the moment, saying "APC members are laughing now and enjoying themselves as members fragrantly decamp from the parties that brought them to this chamber. What they have done is illegal and we must not allow this to continue".
Deputy Minority Leader, Hon. Toby Okechukwu informed the House that there was an existing Supreme Court judgement which says that the crisis in political parties envisioned by the constitution was the crisis at the national level of the parties.
He said "we might deliberately continue to breach the law by allowing people to defect from the political parties that brought them to this parliament, adding that such situation must not be allowed to continue.
In ruling Elumelu out of order, the Speaker said "when a member said there is a crisis in his local government, neither the Speaker nor the Minority Leader has the power to say otherwise. If you do, you will have to prove that. I am aware that there is a case in court right now in Kano".
The Speaker however jokingly told Elumelu that "something tells me that you will soon join the APC", to which Elumelu immediately rejected saying "I have a dream that you will soon join the PDP."

Work-Shop: The New Creative
Pressed Juices (South Yarra)
Design Hunter Q+A with Darcy C..
Every Studio have created a bang-on-brand flagship interior for Melbourne's first cold pressed juicing company. By Elana Castle.

"The juices are the centrepiece of every store," explains Alessia Pegoli, co-director of Every Studio, the multi-disciplinary design studio responsible for the suitably organic interior of Pressed Juices' South Yarra store.
Responsible for all facets of the company's branding, The Melbourne-based studio were conceptually guided by the company's core values of purity, simplicity and rawness, creating a (naturally) sympathetic material palette and a minimalist approach to the interior.
"The brief was for the stores not to be just a shop front, but more of a wellness space, a place to soothe and recharge,"explains Pegoli. As a result Pegoli and her co-director Sarah Crowley have created "moments" within the store including spaces for consultations with the in-store nutritionist, juice tastings as well a space to linger over the store's collection of health and wellbeing books.

The store also doesn't feature a traditional shop counter. "That was in a bid to create a more free flowing space for both the staff and customers," adds Pegoli. "In its place, we've provided a lot of flexible surfaces for staff and customers, like the plywood bar down the centre of the store which is used for tastings, consultations and a spot to sit!"
The original store, whilst something of a generic white box, offered up a number of existing "quirks", which the team used to their advantage. "We tried to make opportunities of the existing fabric of the store as much as possible," adds Pegoli. "Existing wall niches were turned into multi-purpose blackboard menu niches which also function as shelving and places to drink."
The team even made use of the 1980's existing pink tiles, grinding them back to reveal the raw ceramic substrate.
As expected, the modesty and simplicity of the material palette (which includes raw and untreated blonde timber, plywood and blackboard and clean white walls) really allows the vibrant colours of the juices to "sing".
"The fruit crates have become a signature feature, a modern take on the traditional fruit shop," adds Pegoli. "It's used as a crate wall and a display wall that also doubles as a bookshelf, which folds over to become a dropped canopy over the communal dining area. This creates a cosier, more intimate environment at the back of the shop and also acts as a neutral yet eye catching backdrop the entire store."
The crates also reappear as a pendant light installations at the front of the store. "The idea was to create a suspended artwork to act as a welcome to customers, to designate the window seating as a playful and more casual space, and to be create intrigue for passers by," concludes Pegoli.

The Best Face Lift Candidates – Are You One?
Clinically referred to as rhytidectomy, a facelift surgery can help minimize the appearance of facial wrinkles and other significant signs of aging. It is aimed at improving the overall appearance of the face and jaw.
A facelift surgery can reverse the harmful effects of stress, time, and exposure to various elements. The surgeon will lift and tighten the core muscles of the face to produce aesthetically pleasing contours appearance and revitalize the entire facial structure. The best face lift involves removal of excess pockets of fat and skin responsible for a matured, tired appearance.
It is important to get in touch with an experienced, highly skilled cosmetic surgeon to ensure best results. The facelift surgeon will perform this procedure with a creative eye and attention to detail. This is important for patients to have negligible scarring and get youthful, natural-looking results. Apart from traditional full facelifts, it is possible to get other variations of the procedure to address some specific areas of the face. These days, most surgeons make use of advanced, minimally invasive techniques. This helps in minimizing discomfort and any downtime.
A facelift surgery is an effective way to improve one's facial appearance and boost self-confidence. However, this may not be for everyone. Some patients may achieve their cosmetic goals using a non-invasive procedure. These may include microdermabrasion or chemical peel.
Face lift when combined with other procedures the procedure gives better results. The surgeon will combine a facelift surgery with other procedures, such eyebrow lift, neck lift etc. to offer better results.
The best face liftcontenders have realistic hopes. They are also willing and capable of following the pre- and post-operative instructions given by their plastic surgeons. The doctor will advise patient if he/she is a candidate for facelift after a one-on-one initial consultation. He may also recommend an alternate procedure based on the assessment of consultation.
A good candidate for facelift has skin that retains certain amount of flexibility and natural suppleness. This is important as the procedure tightens the facial skin for minimizing appearance of wrinkles on face. Effective healing with optimal results depends on presence of skin that adapt to its new, enhanced contours.
In order to ensure best results, a facelift candidate should have a well-defined core bone structure. This will provide ample support and contribute to happy results. Individuals with less distinct features can benefit from facial implants which is an alternative to a facelift.
Apart from understanding what a facelift can do, a candidate should also know about its limitations. Getting in touch with a qualified plastic surgeon will help you to get the requisite information. Based on this info, you can make an appropriate decision about surgery.
One should be in good health to be a candidate for facelift. It is crucial for the patient to inform his or her surgeon about any preexisting medical conditions before surgery. Since a facelift is an invasive procedure demanding significant healing and recovery, it is essential that the patient is prepared physically.
A good candidate for facelift candidates would want to get rid of excess skin from the face or neck. They look forward to tightening skin around this region and reduce appearance of wrinkles at the same time. The cosmetic surgeon will trim the loose skin during the procedure.

Knox Technology
The security of corporate data on mobile devices remains a top concern for CEOs and CIOs when adopting enterprise mobility. Finding a mobile security solution that is both resilient and user-friendly can be a challenge, which is why Samsung designed Knox.
Why Samsung Knox?
Samsung Knox receives the most "Strong" ratings of any platform in Gartner Mobile Security Report
"Gartner gave Samsung Knox the most "strong" ratings of any platform for the second year in a row," said Kevin Gilroy, executive vice president of Samsung. "Gartner also gave Knox the most 'Strong' ratings in every category under Corporate Managed Security, which we believe is a validation of the work we've done to offer the most secure system for our enterprise customers."

Thanks the RL Benelux. The weekend was great and you all are so nice and cool! Hope we meet one day again.
I want to say thank you all for everything.
YEAHHHH!!! That makes me so happy!!!
Yes, a big thank you to you guys and girls for being so nice to have me there.
The second thing, the difficulty to find correct parts, with those customs. You can find easy parts in the States and cheap but when they arrive in Europe.
As also, i notice in America, you can collect in very easy and fast time in a few weeks, and not that expensive.
People, that show interest to join us, and come as for information, they want stuff pre-made. They don't want to spend time to making everything. Adjusments okay, but begin from zero no.
And another point, people don't want to made time to made something ... i think evolution will go more and more to costumes from comics. Because, with comic costumes you have somewhere a creativ freedom.
But any how, i have fun, it was cool to meet new & old costumes.
In addition I think, it´s that people have seen it all. So everybody tends to rise new attention with a new costume that hasn´t been seen before.
And with the classic rebels...we would need to have a whole bunch of Pilots or Troopers of the same kind (e.g. at least 3, better 5 Hoth Troopers) to rise some attention. But that would need a higher number of members.

Charlie Cox cast as Daredevil in Marvel's Netflix series
By David Hein on May 27, 2014 • ( Leave a comment )
Matt Murdock is coming to the Marvel Cinematic Universe, courtesy of Netflix.
Today, Variety reported that Boardwalk Empire's Charlie Cox has been cast as Matt Murdock/Daredevil in Marvel's 13-episode series Daredevil. The casting will mark the first live-action portrayal of the blind superhero since 2003's Daredevil, starring Ben Affleck as the titular character.
The series, set to air in 2015 exclusively on Netflix, will take place in the established Marvel Cinematic Universe, meaning there is the potential for cameos and various references to Iron Man, S.H.I.E.L.D., Captain America, Thor, and the Incredible Hulk.
Daredevil is the first part of Marvel's plans to feature four shows featuring Daredevil, Jessica Jones, Iron Fist, and Luke Cage. According to Deadline.com, Netflix has committed to at least four, 13-episode shows to span the next few years and "culminating with a miniseries, The Defenders, that reimagines a dream team of self-sacrificing, heroic characters."
Filming for Daredevil will start this July and will be filmed in New York City.
The casting news comes out a few days after Drew Goddard (Cloverfield, The Cabin in the Woods, World War Z), a veteran writer of shows such as Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Angel, Alias, and Lost, left the series as showrunner. Writer & executive producer Steven S. DeKnight (Smallville, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Spartacus) was hired to take over as showrunner. Goodard will remain as an executive producer.
Are you happy there will finally be a replacement for the 2003 film? Do you approve of the casting? Post your thoughts in the comment section below.

Staying active, whether indoors or outdoors, is possible all year long…as long as you wear the proper clothing. During the winter months, heading outside for a hike or biking through a snowy trail makes for a great way to beat the winter blues. If you are wondering, how can I stay dry and warm while burning calories in cold weather? You have come to the right place. We have put together a comprehensive guide on how to stay warm during winter workouts.
You can never have too many long sleeve shirts. Before heading outdoors, be sure to layer two or more of your long sleeve shirts. The reason that these are an ideal garment is that they can easily be removed if your body temperature becomes too warm. The thing to remember about staying active outdoors during winter is that it is easier to remove articles of clothing rather than not have enough to wear when you are cold. Thin, long sleeve shirts are also simple to store, as they do not take up much room in a drawer or closet.
Vests will easily become your number one piece of winter workout gear. Vests, particularly down vests, trap body heat and keep you warm no matter how thin your t-shirt. Vests pair perfectly with long sleeve shirts, and you can stay comfortable in them whether you are snowshoeing, walking, or jogging in cold conditions. Down vests, which are typically filled with goose feathers, make a great non-bulky winter wardrobe essential.
Thermal tights can be worn under yoga pants, ski or snowboarding pants, and even leggings. These special tights are designed to keep in body heat while keeping your legs dry and comfortable. The great thing about wearing thermal tights under another pair of pants is you can easily remove them if you find yourself becoming too warm.
Leg warmers are not only a thing of the '70s, but they are also now a thing of winter wardrobes. You can easily pair leg warmers with a pair of tights or yoga pants, as you head out the door for a winter stroll. Additionally, they look great with almost any pair of snow boots or ankle boots. If you find your legs become too hot with them on, simply roll them down to create ankle socks.
Investing in a pair of tech-compatible gloves will make your winter workout much easier. Have you ever received a phone call during a freezing cold run or while you are busy hiking through snowy trails, only to have to pull your gloves off to answer? Well, now you can keep your gloves on and hands warm while you answer a phone call with your tech-compatible gloves. These will easily become your new best friend. Tech-compatible gloves enable phones to pick-up your fingerprints even under a layer of protection.
There is nothing worse than trekking through a chilling winter wind that leaves your head feeling like an ice cube. A fleece headband can instantly make your workout that much more enjoyable during the cold months. Ensure that the headband sits comfortably but also snug around your head and ears to keep heat in.
While a parka is an ideal winter jacket, it is not an ideal workout jacket. Exercising during the winter months requires a jacket that is lightweight but also keeps warm air trapped. The reason why you want one that is not bulky is so if you need to tie it around your waist, it will not weigh you down or fall off. You may want to consider a windbreaker that you can layer long sleeve shirts underneath, or a light, fleece jacket.
Be sure to consider these winter workout clothes so you can stay warm during cold workouts. The key takeaway from this is to invest in a few staple items that you can dress up or down as necessary. Don't let flurries, frost, or freezing rain stop you from being active – gear up with these garments and show winter who is boss.

Q: Using Jquery to replace text inside a div I have something that looks like

 : Google

I am trying to replace only the text ":" with "Websites:" Without adding any source tags around it ().
This is what I have tried with no effect:

I am getting this html output (I am using a php skin to automatically embed my jquery script, it works for other jquery scripts)

A: $(document).ready(function() {
    $("#ABCLinks").text(function () {
        return $(this).text().replace(":", "Websites:");
    });
});

You gave your div an ID, but tried to call it by class in jQuery.  Classes are referenced using a period like '.ABCLinks', while IDs are referenced using a hashtag like '#ABClinks'
Here is a fiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/ERe9z/

A: Two issues,

*

*Your selector is incorrect
$("#ABCLinks") is for referencing the ID field.

*The HTML function would be a lot better for this
http://api.jquery.com/html/#html-htmlString
.html( htmlString )
htmlString
Type: htmlString
A string of HTML to set as the content of each matched element.

edit. And the fiddle for your particular circumstance: http://jsfiddle.net/ERe9z/7/

Contrarian Outlook
Are you trying to grind out a livable retirement on dividends alone? It's possible, and it doesn't require millions and millions already in the bank. (Even today, with interest rates in the tank.)
However, we must step outside the mainstream to achieve this. After all, why mess around with a standard $15,600 a year in retirement income when we can "supersize" that annual yield haul up to $108,000?
The "standard" $15.6K is what we get listening to mainstream financial advisors and pundits, and buying the vanilla ETFs that they recommend. The latter $108K is what we can achieve with a little bit of original thinking.
And, better yet, we can bank these bigger dividends while owning high-quality stocks. (The types that survive pullbacks like these, and thrive afterwards.)
Thanks to this near-correction in the S&P 500, the blue-chip index now yields a big, fat… 1.8%. And a bundle of diversified high-quality bonds like those we'll find in the iShares Core U.S. Aggregate Bond ETF (NYSE:AGG) yields a paltry 1.2%. That means even if we put a million dollars to work in a 60/40 portfolio (60% S&P 500 tracker, 40% AGG), we generate a mere $15,600 in dividends and interest payments.
Many Social Security payments amount to more than this! It wasn't always this way. Decades ago, we could earn not just safe, but substantial, long-term income by relying on fixed income from even the highest-quality of bonds. Treasuries, AAA corporates, trusted developed-market sovereigns helped whole generations sleep well at night.
Treasuries Used to Pay—Not Anymore
10 Yr Treasury Yield Chart
There's no relief on the horizon, either. The Federal Reserve recently indicated that it was content to leave rates near zero through the end of 2023. Financial advisors are only now even starting to come around to the idea that their age-old recommendations will leave their clients high and dry in retirement.
Just how bad is it? If you rely on a basic 60/40 portfolio starting at today's yields, you'll be underwater paying for even the most bare-bones lifestyle.
Consider this table below, which shows the monthly income from a $1 million nest egg invested 60% in an S&P 500 tracker and 40% in AGG, as well as the average Social Security paycheck, stacked up against a list of basic retirement costs compiled by NerdWallet.
60/40 Income Expense Table
That's right. We're looking at a $704/month deficit, and even if you booted every last entertainment cost, we'd still be more than $500 in the hole every month. What kind of a world do we live in when a million dollars isn't enough to retire on?
Traditional income strategies just won't cut it anymore. We need higher yields, not to mention payouts that grow over time, to actually retire on dividends. Here are a few outside-the-mainstream ideas to consider:
Liberty All-Star Equity
Type: Large-Cap Stock
Distribution Yield: 10.8%
Close your eyes and imagine what would happen if the S&P 500 yielded more than 10%. That image you have in your head probably looks something like Liberty All Star Equity Closed Fund (NYSE:USA)
This actively managed closed-end fund (CEF), which has been around since 1986, uses a team of specialists to wring performance and yield out of the large-cap space. Specifically, its funds are equally distributed across five managers (three value, two growth), with five focuses:
Durable businesses trading at a discount.
Low P/E companies that can generate "earnings recovery."
Attractively valued high-quality companies with the catalysts for change.
Companies with predictable, sustainable earnings and cash flow growth.
Firms with superior sales growth, leading and/or rising market share and high and/or rising margins.
The result is a fund with plenty of stocks we'll find high up in the S&P 500's holdings—Amazon.com (NASDAQ:AMZN), Alphabet (NASDAQ:GOOGL) and UnitedHealth (NYSE:UNH)—but also some companies that don't get as much play in the venerable index, including ServiceNow (NYSE:NOW), Equinix (NASDAQ:EQIX) and Danaher (NYSE:DHR).
USA typically offers total-return performance that's competitive with the S&P 500, which is no mean feat, though a much, much larger chunk of its returns come from its distributions.
Don't Bet Against USA
USA-SPY Total Returns
But we shouldn't just close our eyes and buy USA anytime. This is a fund that is best bought on the rare occasion it trades at a deep, deep discount to its net asset value (NAV), which I explain in more detail here.
Currently, USA trades at a discount of less than 7% of NAV, which isn't even as cheap as its five-year average. We should keep this fund on our watch list and wait for its discount to dip well into the double-digits.
Barings Corporate Investors
Type: High-Yield Bond
Distribution Yield: 7.4%
Let's pivot to fixed income, where CEFs' active management and ability to use leverage can really make a difference. Barings Corporate Investorsinvests in long-term, below-investment-grade (read: junk) debt obligations of primarily U.S. companies. If we stopped the discussion right there, it would sound a lot like the iShares iBoxx High Yield Corporate Bond ETF (NYSE:HYG) or the SPDR® Bloomberg Barclays High Yield Bond ETF (NYSE:JNK)
But MCI swims in a completely different pool. This CEF purchases the junk debt directly through mostly smaller, private companies, and these deals often come with equity features such as warrants and conversion rights.
And rather than spreading the risk across more than a thousand issues like HYG and JNK do, MCI boasts just 155 bonds, issued by the likes of mailing-software firm BCC Software and Sunrise Windows.
This makes Barings Corporate Investors a high-potential CEF, but one that really marches to the beat of its own drum. Consider that it has outperformed its plain-Jane junk-bond ETF counterparts over the past decade:
Management Gets It Right Over the Long Haul
MCI-Bond Index Total Returns
But volatile, uncorrelated returns are the norm. Just look at how it has fared in 2020:
MCI Has Been Left in the Dust
MCI-2020 Total Returns
While I trust in Barings' ability to get it right over the long haul, and while the fund trades at a deep 11% discount to NAV compared to its typical 7% premium, this is an opaque area of the market that you and I would be blindly betting on. Let's move on to something more familiar.
Nuveen Preferred & Income Opportunities Fund
Type: Preferreds
I frequently tout the virtues of preferred stocks—those stock-bond hybrids that dole out high-single-digit dividends while not "wiggling" nearly as much as their underlying companies' common stocks.
But closed-end funds (CEFs) make preferreds more potent. Reason being, CEFs can borrow money for basically nothing and reinvest the free cash into more high paying issues.
The Nuveen Preferred Income Opportunities Closed Fund (NYSE:JPC) is a 241-holding funds holding primarily preferred stock, though it does have the option of stashing assets in other income-producing instruments, such as municipal bonds and corporate debt.
Credit quality is just fine, at roughly two-thirds investment-grade, and like most preferred funds, financials dominate the holdings roster. Four of the top five industries are financials-related and make up 70% of assets.
The difference-maker is leverage. JPC has effectively borrowed 35 cents on the dollar to invest even more heavily in its targeted preferreds. This has led to stellar outperformance over the years, but as we can see, more volatility, too.
Nuveen's JPC Is A Punchier Way To Invest In Preferreds
JPC PFF Total Returns
We gain more upside potential with JPC. The fund isn't cheap right now, however, trading at a slightly lower discount to NAV than its five-year average.
Calamos Convertible & High Income Fund
Type: Multi-Sector
The Calamos Convertible and High Income Closed Fund (NASDAQ:CHY) invests in a portfolio of convertible securities and other high-yield fixed income instruments. Convertible securities are the lion's share at 67%, followed by corporate bonds at 26%.
Convertible bonds get very little press. They're like traditional bonds in that they make regular, fixed coupon payments. But as the name implies, they can be converted–into common stock. So, we can enjoy the income of bonds with the potential upside of equities.
Convertibles typically yield less than regular bonds. However, CHY's other holdings, plus nearly 30% leverage, help fuel a big distribution of nearly 9%.
While convertibles' yields are typically less than regular bonds, CHY's other holdings, as well as a hefty amount of leverage, help fuel a massive distribution of more than 9% despite a slight reduction in the payout late last year. But perhaps most attractive about this Calamos fund right now is that you can buy it at an 11% discount to NAV, which is four times its historical average.
Royce Microcap Trust
Type: Micro-Cap Stock
If we really want to walk on the wild side, take a gander at Royce Funds, which decided back in 1993 that they could make a high-distribution product by investing some of the market's tiniest stocks.
Royce Micro Cap Closed Fund (NYSE:RMT) boasts a 324-stock portfolio that includes the likes of quality-control product maker Mesa Laboratories (NASDAQ:MLAB) and hospitality-industry systems and service provider PAR Technology (PAR). RMT's average holding is worth a mere $505 million in market cap, putting it near the low end of the small-cap stock range. Compare that to the small-cap Russell 2000, whose holdings average closer to $1.9 billion in size.
A handful of funds even dare to focus on micro-caps, and to Royce's credit, RMT is a good offering, outperforming both small- and microcap indices over the past decade.
A (Slightly) Better Small-Cap Solution
RMT Total Returns Chart
But as we can see, performance, while technically superior, is similar, and tracks very closely to the indices. That's because RMT uses very little leverage (only 5% currently). In reality, very little of the high distribution is actual dividend income—the majority is return of capital and another significant chunk is long-term gains.
Royce Micro-Cap Trust might have a place in some retirement portfolios—it's a way to add small-cap diversification while collecting returns on a consistent basis. But if your goal is safe, high levels of income, you can find far more reliable sources than a basket of the market's chanciest stocks.

Bah, I keep trying to get my friend to play blank white cards with me, in person, but they keep weaseling out of it on account of "Waaaaah I can't draw!"
Hah drawing ability is the most important thing of course.
Sweet, I found pretty much everything I was looking for code wise here.
Now to edit the code and get it up and running for you guys. This should happen sometime over the next week, since there are 171 images. Unless of course EsBe (since I feel bad for wanting to improve on his hard work for the original quiz) or someone else would want to work on it.
Hold off until I hear back from my trained cyborg dolphin, who's currently tweaking it for me. You might not have to do anything at all.
I can still make a name the artist one.
Where can I rent one of these trained cyborg dolphins, by the way?
Anyone good with CSS? I've been busier than usual this summer, and that's the only thing that's holding me back from this. I basically just need to reformat the quiz area to fit the images from the original quiz in there.
The files are in an attached .rar.
I'll take a look. Since I don't actually know a thing about the original quiz or where exactly this has to be done, could you give me some info and what PHP files to look into?
EDIT: oh, okay, I see what needs to be done.
EDIT 2: Correction! Do you actually need that big right-side area that explains what the quiz is all about? In fact, what is the format that you want this to be in at all? Got a mockup or something?
More questions! Do you want to keep a similar visual format to the original quiz, or can I play around with it a little? The window size on the original code is pretty much fixed because the creator is intent on always perfectly centering the thing onto the screen, but doing the same with spamusement comics means I either need to make the comics smaller, or drop the whole "vertical centering" thing. If I don't, the quiz itself will probably drop off half the screen for anyone with a vertical resolution lower than 1000px (the minimum resolution to fit the comic, quiz text AND answers).

How do you play blank white cards?
I asked all these questions, but just went on a whim and made this. See attachment.
Note that I completely dropped the vertical centering part, and I moved the intro text to the top instead of the side. If everything displays correctly, the white background is supposed to cover the full vertical part of the quiz.
EDIT 2: made the results page a lot better.
There's no real set format for the quiz. It took me so long to find a workable editable code for a quiz with the features I wanted that I was happy with that.
The one you provided looks good, if you want to improve it and make it more awesome go for it!
Alright then, good to hear. I reverted the index page to the centered view (because it looks better with its limited content), and I centered that final score block (though I had to edit test.php to do so, since I needed to add a div). Files are attached.
I'll leave any other color and design choices to you (though I think the colors actually match the forums perfectly).

Not mentioned in this article: it should be played as a drinking game.
BTW, it strikes me that there is a logical flaw in The Game.
People playing The Game announce that they've lost it when they think of it, so therefore those people who do not announce that they've lost The Game are not playing it, which would contradict Rule 1.
OP Tipping wrote: BTW, it strikes me that there is a logical flaw in The Game.
The key to the Game is to drink enough until that makes sense.
And it's currently here. Just drop it into a PHP server and go to index.php.
Click a comic, subject line list appears at right. Click a line, it gets assigned to the comic. Pretty basic. I originally intended this to be a group quiz---i.e. you present it to a bunch of outsiders and see how well they can hack it as a Spamuser---which is why the quiz is so long.
At a later date I should figure out a way to make selected lines show up on the list, but for now it works fine.
Wow, how many toons are in that quiz?
Yeah I don't think I would ever be able to try one of more than like 10-15 at a time, let alone 60 or 70.
Well, I got 20 percent! I think that's mainly because I'm stupid and unobservant, but there might be because it's a bit overwhelming with all the pictures and all the captions at the same time. I'd see a caption and think, "Oh, I bet this went with that picture a couple of hundred back--do I want to scroll all the way down and start from there again?"
My suggestion would be that each picture should have, maybe, six or so captions to choose from. Failing that, perhaps every time a caption was chosen, it would be eliminated from the list? I should point out I am very impressed with the work put into this.
I wonder what kind of score I could get with sheer randomness.
Do you have javascrip on? It does remove from list.
ah, perhaps not--that NoScript thing may have blocked it. I'll try again.
That was one of my friend's additions. In place of the dropdown menu I berated the user for blocking scripts.
The Java does make it easier...though the sheer number of entries makes it a bit difficult to get around.
For example, I'd be captioning one drawing, and I'd see another caption that would go with a drawing previously seen. "Oh, I know that one!" SCROLL SCROLL SCROLL SCROLL SCROLL SCROLL SCROLL SCROLL SCROLL SCROLL SCROLL. dang it. Maybe it was the other direction? SCROLL SCROLL SCROLL SCROLL SCROLL SCROLL SCROLL SCROLL SCROLL SCROLL SCROLL SCROLL SCROLL SCROLL SCROLL SCROLL SCROLL SCROLL SCROLL SCROLL SCROLL SCROLL. Okay, there's the drawing. What was the caption again?
Don't know if it's possible, but a "Remove Captioned Drawings from View" would make navigation much easier.
Yeah, I know, I ask for EVERYTHING and am NEVER HAPPY.

I used Spool and Tape Single, as well as a sentiment from Sewn With Love.
I started with a base of heavy kraft card stock (Mark's Finest Papers), matted with a soft aqua from my stash, then some pretty My Mind's Eye Lost and Found Designer Paper from the Sunshine pack.
I stamped the sentiment directly on the dp with Memento Ink.
I stamped the image on Gina K ivory cs with Memento ink, and then colored with Copics and cut out with the custom die. Oh how I love these custom dies!!!
I then "dressed" the dress form chipboard die cut (a gift from a dear friend, cut with a THoltz die). I used more dp from the same pack and then some wide lace from my stash for the skirt. More lace at the neck line and some shabby seam binding dressed that up. I sewed all my layers together with a funky stitch design, and added some Spellbinders corners at the top using the Antique Frames and Accents die set.
I finished off with a crocheted flower for a hat, and a Prima wood button inside another crocheted flower I made, and then some fibers, ribbon and beads for the top.
Several things on this card were gifted to me by a sweet friend. I do not quite have Sabrina's gift for tags, but I sure had fun playing with this!
I hope you enjoyed my project today and were inspired in some way!
