You really should keep these up!
Well, I might be persuaded to change my mind on this...You know, you could always do both. I firmly believe that giggling and mind-blowing orgasms are the cornerstones of a positive outlook on life.
Well, perhaps I can multi-task!
I love that there is a george lucas action figure!
Jon, I have an idea for one. Do you want it here, via email or over lunch post flea tomorrow?

Behind the scenes of the Air Force's anti-terrorism drone program
cbsnews.com
Amid reports that Iran shot down a U.S. Navy drone last month and that the U.S. downed an Iranian drone last week, remotely piloted aircraft are getting new attention. Many of the drones the U.S. Air Force flies overseas are piloted from Creech Air Force Base in Nevada – and "CBS This Morning" got a rare, behind-the-scenes look at the operations.
Creech is in a remote stretch of the desert about an hour's drive from Las Vegas, and it's filled with a fleet of the Air Force's drones. The military doesn't like the word drone – it prefers remotely piloted aircraft. But whichever term you use, one specific aircraft – the Reaper – has become a major part of the military's anti-terrorism arsenal.
Six hundred pilots and 350 sensor or camera operators work in teams around the clock, averaging six air strikes and 1,000 combat hours every day.
"The act of taking a human life, the act of supporting guys on the ground, is as stressful as it was sitting in an F-16 regardless of the distance in between the two air frames," one employee said.
Creech Air Force Base in Nevada CBS News
Major Bryce is a combatant in the sky eight hours a day, sometimes dropping hellfire missiles or precision guided bombs on high-value targets.
"Our job is to be in the mental model knowing that we could jump right into the seat and something could happen," he said.
He believes that being close to home makes him a better pilot. "Even though I might get home at weird hours, I get to go home and spend time with my wife and daughter," he added.
The missions themselves are classified, as are the Reaper's other capabilities. But the Air Force did say that the planes are protected against threats that could try to jam the satellite signal between pilot and plane.
These aircraft cost about $16 million each, and it takes about a year to train each pilot. Australia, France and Spain also train their RPA pilots in the facility, and the U.K.'s Royal Air Force runs its drone operations out of the base.

Bostonians march for life
On: 1/30/2015, By Christopher S. Pineo , In: Local
Cardinal O'Malley poses for a "selfie" with Boston students at the annual March for Life in Washington, D.C. Jan. 22. Pilot photo/Gregory L. Tracy
WASHINGTON -- Hundreds of pilgrims from the Archdiocese of Boston joined hundreds of thousands of advocates for human life from around the nation, Jan. 22, at the March for Life in Washington.
Pilgrims from Boston numbered more than 800, the vast majority youth and young adults, while the march drew hundreds of thousands nationally.
Before the march began, all pilgrims from Boston converged on Sacred Heart Shrine for a rally and Mass with Cardinal Seán P. O'Malley that has become an annual tradition for marchers from Archdiocese of Boston.
"It's a great joy that you are here, and your presence is a very valuable witness in the Church. I welcome all of you to this pilgrimage for life," Cardinal O'Malley said.
He recalled his time at the shrine, which is under the care of the Capuchin order, where he served as a younger priest in Washington during the Civil Rights movement.
"When I was here in Washington, particularly when I was in seminary to become a priest, one of the great struggles of our country was around desegregation. This neighborhood, in many ways, was a witness of that struggle," Cardinal O'Malley said.
He recalled the news of the death of Martin Luther King Jr. and its impact on the parish community and the surrounding city.
"There was an immediate reaction in the whole country. Here in Washington there were terrible riots," he said.
He painted a picture for the gathered of a neighborhood in flames in reaction to the news, but he added that the church community pulled together through the tragedy.
"There were 700 fires in this neighborhood. I lived in the basement of this church with 700 families that had lost their homes," he said.
He said tanks surrounded the White House while soldiers with fixed bayonets lined the streets.
"It was a truly horrific time, but out of people of faith coming together the country was able to find a new path that led us away from that rather dark period. In 1973, when I was a very young priest, a new crisis came upon us -- that was the decision of Roe vs. Wade," Cardinal O'Malley said.
He said the Supreme Court decision that threw out state laws restricting abortions also started a new movement for human rights. In recent years the movement and the March for Life have increasingly attracted more and more young people. Cardinal O'Malley reiterated a message he delivered the evening before at the National Shrine of the Immaculate Conception, for an audience estimated around 10,000 strong.
"All of the polls show that Americans are becoming more and more pro-life, especially our young people. As they say, pro-life is the new normal according to the Gallup poles, so I congratulate all of you folks for being normal," he said.
After the Mass, groups travelling from Boston grabbed bagged lunches in the basement of the church and boarded busses headed toward the Washington Monument, where the march began. Boston pilgrims had travelled to the march in multiple groups. Groups of young people, young adults and families travelled with the Office for Lifelong Faith Formation and Parish Support's Faith Formation of Youth and Young Adult Ministry. Parishes, local pro-life groups and seminarians from Pope St. John XXIII, St. John Seminary and the Redemptoris Mater Seminary also travelled to the march.
The seminarians joined with the groups in an effort to keep Boston pilgrims together during the march, a goal of archdiocesan organizers this year. Another effort coordinated the plans of those who marched even further -- what Father Matt Williams, director of the Office for Lifelong Faith Formation and Parish Support's Faith Formation of Youth and Young Adult Ministry, called "Marching orders."
"Every 10 minutes beginning at one o'clock, we are going to engage in some type of activity -- whether it's music, a chant, or prayer," he said.
After busses shuttled the entire group to the Washington Monument, the combined army of Boston advocates for human life began the March for Life.
"St. Michael the Archangel, defend us in battle," the Boston group prayed in unison, promptly at 1 p.m. as the march up Washington's Constitution Ave. began.
Before joining Father Daniel Hennessey and Father Michael Harrington to lead the pilgrims in prayer in front of the Supreme Court, at One First Street Northeast, Father Williams started one last chant.
"Boston Strong," he said into a bullhorn.
"We choose life," the Boston contingent yelled back.


In the next few months, Illinois lawmakers likely will put the state on the hook for a massive and costly expansion of Medicaid. That's part of the federal government's health care splurge known as Obamacare.
But Illinois and every other state have a choice. A state can take federal money to sign up more Medicaid recipients, or, thanks to a U.S. Supreme Court ruling, it can refuse. Or ... like a savvy buyer inspecting an expensive automobile in a showroom, a state can try to negotiate a better deal.
That's what Arkansas, Ohio and other states are doing.
Arkansas recently hogged the national spotlight when officials there revealed that the state had won "conceptual approval" from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services for an innovative plan to expand Medicaid coverage.
The pitch: Instead of enrolling more newly eligible people in the traditional Medicaid plan, Arkansas would help mostly low-income applicants buy private health insurance coverage through new online markets called exchanges. That concept is called "premium support." Sound familiar? It should. That's the same idea Republican Rep. Paul Ryan of Wisconsin has been promoting as a way to trim expenses from another gargantuan federal health program, Medicare.
The Arkansas approach may or may not be right for Illinois. Critics point out that private insurance tends to cost more than traditional Medicaid. But that insurance could provide overall better health care coordination for low-income people than traditional fee-for-service Medicaid. Over time, that could trim health care costs.
The important point here is that some states are pushing fresh ideas to control costs, gain flexibility and improve Medicaid coverage. Illinois should be one of those states.
So far, however, Illinois lawmakers are in a rush to grab the first deal offered by the feds. To recap: If states agree to expand their Medicaid coverage for hundreds of thousands of previously ineligible lower-income people, the federal government will pick up 100 percent of the costs for the first three years and at least 90 percent through 2020.
The Illinois Senate has approved that expansion of Medicaid. The Illinois House is expected to take this up in the next months.
We've urged caution because those mounting health care bills will add to the state's crushing budget problems. Sure, the feds promise to pay all the costs in the first three years, and so on. But what about ... later?
Could Illinois make a deal with the federal government to more carefully and efficiently expand coverage? Could helping Medicaid recipients buy private insurance provide better coverage to them than the sclerotic and wasteful fee-for-service model? Let's find out.
Julie Hamos, director of the Illinois Department of Healthcare and Family Services, says her department is seeking more details on the Arkansas compromise. Good. Let's kick the tires of this federal Medicaid deal. And frown at the sticker. And see what happens.

Pocket knives for healthy young boys. Available at Friða Frænka. If you don't know Friða Frænka, the antique store Vesturgata with a collection so absurd that it often looks like a large, post-modern gallery, you need to get acquainted. The highlight this month, a bucket of pocket knives. All created from bone-like plastic, the two-inch blades feature young healthy men, often shirtless, smiling at their own exuberance.
This Danish store really has the goods for all season. And now that daylight has begun to flee, a flashlight that helps you exercise really is a no-brainer. While you should be warned that the 400 ISK model does not come with a lifetime warranty, the Tigers in Iceland are known for standing behind their merchandise, whatever the price.
Curious thing about this home of rock bands and leather-wearing, shaved head, rock band member-looking people: when the rain starts, everybody takes out jig-saw puzzles. Everybody. They love 'em. If you want to fit in, you better love them too.
Icelandic Voodoo Dolls at Nornabúðin.
While my studies of Icelandic folk lore never mentioned an interest in Voodoo Dolls per se, there has been a vigorous history of spell-making, so the curious stuffed things at Nornabúðin, the witch shop, that you poke holes into may be vaguely authentic. In any case, they are amusing. A better deal may be the coffee and cookie for 500 ISK, which you can consume while watching visitors poke at the doll.


Virtual K2 training classes kicked off last week, as an addition to the on-site classroom instruction K2 has always offered.

January 2019 was an excellent entry point for equities after the disastrous Q4 of 2018 when both the QQQ and the XBI hit 12 month lows QtQ going back to 9/17. One compelling reason given for the market recovery was a pivot from the FED now apparently holding rates at current levels. The Russell 2000 also recovered in Q1 up 15.8% but losing momentum. Mid-cap biopharmas remain strong with M&A expectations. High volatility should be expected for small cap growth stocks.
Here is the performance of selected life science and healthcare and life science ETFs for Q1 2019. Note that the prices as of 3/29 are still below 2018 highs hit around 9/18.
FBT up 2% today, up 21.6% QTD at $150.85. Up 19.49 % over 12 mos.

Additional studies are underway to treat high triglycerides and reduction of cardiovascular events. The stock was up over 11% today to the $20.50 level. Market Cap is $6.8B with revenues of $229.2M. P/Cash is 26.11, Debt/Eq is 0.62,QtQ sales growth is 43.4%. Revenues are on track but earnings missed last quarter(0.39).A class action suit is underway but we have no analysis. Two analysts have a "strong buy" and 3 have a buy on AMRN. The stock has a 1 month double peak at the $22 level.
Recently the American Diabetes Association (ADA)added fish oil capsule to its standards of care list with cardiovascular disease or certain risk factors.

Walmart greeters have been around for decades, allowing the retail giant to put a friendly face at the front of its stores.
Then, in 2016, Walmart began replacing greeters with hosts, adding responsibilities that include helping with returns, checking receipts to deter shoplifters and keeping the front of the store clean. Walmart and other chains have been redefining roles at stores as they compete with Amazon.

Shopify Is Expanding With a U.S. Fulfillment Network
One of several new initiatives aimed at gaining market share
By Ann-Marie Alcántara
Part of Shopify's announcements include letting merchants show products in video and 3D models.
At Shopify's annual developer conference, Shopify Unite, the ecommerce SaaS platform rolled out a series of new features for its merchants and partners: its own fulfillment network for its U.S. merchants, an improved Shopify Plus experience, a new Shopify point-of-sale system and a few other updates to its online store design experience.
Taking a page out of Amazon's playbook, Shopify is introducing the Shopify Fulfillment Network, a network of distributed fulfillment centers (currently in an early-access mode). To begin, Shopify is working with fulfillment partners in Nevada, California, Texas, Georgia, New Jersey, Ohio and Pennsylvania. Customers check out normally, and Shopify chooses the closest fulfillment center to process those orders to provide low-cost and fast delivery. Pricing varies per merchant and is based on factors such as distance or the type of product.
On the retail side, Shopify is starting out by completely revamping its point-of-sale system, integrating apps onto the home screen and starting a closed beta of buy-online-pick-up-in-store. Some other new features include surfacing loyalty and promotion rewards at checkout. Shopify is also introducing a new tap and chip case later this year—which lets merchants accept credit card and contactless payments in-store. (The company unveiled a new tap and chip reader earlier this year.)
Additionally, Shopify Plus, the company's paid offering for merchants, is receiving a number of new features—namely, giving merchants more information, such as seeing sales numbers of all stores in one area. It's also expanding on Shopify Flow, the commerce automation tool the company introduced at last year's Unite conference, which is now built onto Shopify Plus. Merchants can automate tasks occurring in one store and replicate it at another.
Other product updates include upgrading the online store design experience, such as the ability to edit multiple pages at the same time, bringing sections to every part of the store (as opposed to just the homepage) and rolling out video and 3D capabilities to showcase products. Cynthia Savard Saucier, director of user experience, said customers are twice as likely to complete a purchase after interacting with a 3D model. Checkout is also evolving, with partners now able to build apps that extend to the checkout experience, such as integrating subscriptions into the checkout flow.
These moves signify that Shopify is taking its newly cemented status of reaching $1 billion in revenue in 2018 and taking on bigger competitors such as Amazon, while shutting out partners as it closes up its ecosystem.

319: Boss of This Gym
I had thought I'd be fine with a hermit's life. A cabin on a mountainside, a freshwater spring nearby, maybe grow my own pond weed. Sounds pretty bliss.
Don't misunderstand me, I realise there's nothing idyllic about life, especially not mine. The wilderness isn't any safer than civilisation — both require immense survival skills. Sure nature seems very pleasant, with its flowers and faint scent of manure, but in this world, go down the wrong forest path, and you could end up being brutally gang-raped by bunnies.
Despite the risks, I think I'd make a decent fist of it. I could already hunt and cook to a reasonable standard. I had healing for the times I fucked up. The intense loneliness, which most people would find unbearable, would be the biggest attraction for me.
And if I did crave some kind of physical contact, I could always 'accidentally' take a wrong turn down Bunnicorn Lane.
"Oh, hello boys. Looks like I lost my way. Again."
I was pretty sure I could make it work, if I had to. But the truth was, I was a city boy at heart. I didn't want to have to eat barbecue every night.
Of course, the city contained my arch nemesis: people. But that wouldn't be too much of a problem if I could make myself one of the crowd. When you're just another pleb among thousands, you can go unnoticed a lot easier than when you're the only idiot for miles around with a simmering hotpot. Randoms flock to those kinds of out of the way places. Weirdos on quests, requiring help from total strangers. Been there, done that, thanks but no thanks.
As I floated back through Gorgoth, I could appreciate the qualities of this city. Yes, it had a giant human skull at its centre, but in London we have a man standing on a giant pole. You need something eye-catching to pull in the tourists.
Putting my irrational fear of the occult to one side, and my rational fear of the occult to the other side (there were gods under the temple, after all), the city had a lot going for it.
Stone buildings that provided housing for everyone — I hadn't seen any beggars, which meant either an excellent welfare system or Brazilian-style death squads — thriving business and industry, great food (apart from the occasional poisonous seafood platter), and wonderful weather. It was perhaps a bit on the warm side, but it was a dry heat.
The religious stuff was a bit dubious, but hardly intrusive in everyday life. People were willing to give the Church of the Shrine their money, and in return they got solace and support for whatever idiotic hope they had for themselves. Which might have all been meaningless nonsense, but it was nonsense at very reasonable prices.
There was no vilifying of groups or individuals like you get with most religions. Well, maybe they gave the druids a bit of a hard time, but they had tentacles growing out of their faces. Not that you should reject people for something they couldn't help being born with, but it's hard to accept someone into your heart when they could potentially suck your face off.
My point is that it was manageable. People were getting by, and without a twenty-four-hour news cycle to aggravate them, were reasonably content.
In the other three cities, I had felt the undercurrent of unrest. People were jockeying for position. Social strata were in constant flux. Not here.
Here, they had a very clear idea of a higher power being in charge. They were wrong, but that's the great thing about humility. Simply thinking you aren't anything special is enough to stop most fights from breaking out. Self-esteem is highly overrated, particularly in the hands of people who have no right to own any.
In the distance, a fizzing light was streaking towards me. It was running along one of the vines, from the direction of the Municipal Directory. Damicar's vine, the one that had led me to his father's lockbox, was disintegrating. It was as though it was a lit fuse for a bomb, racing me back to Damicar. When it got to him, he might actually explode.
Others vines behind it were also on fire. Destroying the note wouldn't only affect Damicar. I turned and upped my speed as much as I could, staying ahead of the burning fuse.
I found my body where I'd left. The people in the street were awaiting my return, they just didn't know it. This was the moment I had engineered, my chance to do it my way.
Falling back into my body was easy, like slipping on old shoes. Wesley was seated on her comfy chair. She gave me a smile as I passed through, not offering me any advice or observations. It wasn't that she had nothing to say, I think it was more that she had something I hadn't encountered before. Patience.
"Right, sorry, where were we?" I said to Grayson as I snapped back into the here and now.
He looked at me like he thought I was trying to distract him while someone stuck a 'kick me' sign to his back. It's a very specific look which I had often seen reflected in the sunglasses of arseholes.
Malmur's men scurried about, and the street was nearly vomit-free. Damicar's place would take some rebuilding, but that wasn't a bad thing. It could do with the renovations, and I'd seen enough Gordon Ramsay shows to help with the layout and point out the people who were a Yankee danky doodle shite.
I took a long hard look at both Damicar and Malmur to see if there was any change from my intervention.
"What is it?" asked Damicar, touching his face self-consciously. "Do I have something in my teeth?"
"How are you feeling?" I asked him. "Anything on your mind?"
Damicar took a moment to search his thoughts. "Well, I have been wondering if you can use minced garlic instead of a puree in a—"
"Okay, good. What about you, Malmur? Everything okay?"
Malmur pursed his lips and aggressively ran his eyes up and down my body. I wasn't sure what he was checking for, but he wasn't really in a position to be judgemental. He was the one in a toga, and he didn't really have the legs for it.
"What are you up to?" he asked me, unnecessarily suspiciously.
I felt it coming closer. The touch paper burning towards us was nearly here. I could almost see it. I'd had moments like this before, when I'd been able to see particularly active vines while still in this world. The more intense the sensation, the clearer the image became. A vine coming out of Malmur's chest. One in Damicar's. Sparks devouring the other ends.
"What is it?" Damicar sounded uncomfortable. "Why are you looking at me like that?"
The vine burned down to the stump and I flinched, expecting an explosion. There wasn't one, but everyone else flinched with me.
I relaxed my face and let my shoulders go loose. "It's nothing. How do you feel now?"
Damicar seemed unaffected, just mildly bewildered by my behaviour.
"Malmur?" He had the same look of perplexed annoyance as before. Perhaps I needed to be more specific. "You know the note your brother left when he died? Does it still upset you?"
Malmur's eyes widened in startled surprise. His mouth dropped open.
"Oh!" cried out Damicar. I turned to look at him. He had his fist on his heart and a pained look on his face. Then he belched loudly. "That's better." He took another bite of raw onion.
I turned back to Malmur. I hadn't been sure of what to expect, but something should have changed, shouldn't it?
"What do you know about my brother?" He said it so menacingly, I heard Grayson start to draw his sword.
"I know he left a note for the Pope, confessing to a lot of things that don't really matter. He was just scared of dying. He wasn't trying to punish you."
There was movement behind Malmur's face, like a parasite had crawled in through his ear and was trying to find somewhere to lay its eggs.
"How… H—"
Something broke. His whole body changed from tightly-wound spring to gelatinous blob. He began crying. Not sniffling, not even sobbing. This was a deluge.
"It doesn't matter." He looked at me with snot running freely down his face. "It doesn't matter anymore."
"No," I agreed, "it doesn't."
"Even if the Pope reads it…"
"He won't. I destroyed it."
"You did? No, it isn't possible, and yet… I think… I think I believe you." The downpour intensified.
"You should, it's the truth. You won't know it for sure for another three years, but you can feel it's gone, can't you?"
Whatever use I could have put the note to if I still had it, I felt destroying it had been the right thing to do.
I had nothing to hold over him now, but that was okay.
It's a shitty thing to do, to drag someone else into your guilt. If he'd wanted to shop Malmur because he believed he'd done something terrible and deserved to be punished, fair enough. But to do to lessen his own punishment, that was clearly the action of a giant dildo who hadn't experienced true remorse or repentance.
"I admit what I did was wrong, but so did you…" The motto of millions of adolescents trying not to grow up into responsible adults (and judging by Reddit, succeeding).
"Thank you," said Malmur, his voice breaking.
"Don't thank me, thank the Golden God." The Golden God had done fuck all, of course, but you don't win people over by taking credit for the impossible. They end up resenting having to crane their neck to look up at you. And the great thing about deferring to a higher power is you have someone to pass the buck to when shit hits the fan. Hey, it was God's will, not mine. Don't ask me to explain, mysterious ways, dude, mysterious ways.
"I don't really understand why your brother left it in the Directory, though," I said. "Or what he thought Damicar would do with it."
Damicar was standing there, unaffected. The loss of the note was no big deal to the gormless tub of lard. I don't mean that in a bad way. Damicar's lack of resentment towards people who clearly deserved it had a soothing effect on his surroundings, although it missed the occasional spot.
"That boy…" said Malmur, with an edge to his voice that suggested the anger hadn't gone, it had just moved to somewhere else. There's always somewhere else. "He's the reason everything changed. It was all going so well, and then he was born."
Damicar backed away, his nostrils flared and he began munching more quickly under his uncle's disapproving glare. I think he was afraid whatever his uncle wanted to do him would cut into chow-time.
It's not an unusual story, a criminal having a child and rethinking his approach to life. It's usually a passing phase, fading out as the thankless and futile nature of parenting become more apparent. But if you throw in a terminal illness, and a big hoopla about the Golden God eight times a week (matinee on Wednesdays), then I can see why a guy might put pen to purple paper.
"It's not Damicar's fault," I said. "The Golden God has a purpose for him, as he does for you."
"Me?" said Malmur. Time to lean back and reel him in.
It may have seemed with my natural reluctance to use bully-boy tactics to get my way, that I might have tried for a more wholesome approach. Be kind, be forgiving, wait for others to see the benefits of behaving like a decent person. Perhaps if I'd been raised in a bubble and never encountered another human being I might think such a thing was possible.
But I was raised in North London, and I have no illusion about how far decency will get you.
"Yes, you and your whole organisation. You are going to be an instrument of the Golden God." That instrument being a giant fiddle.
If you threaten and coerce people, you can get them to do what you want. If you exert enough force, you can break them so they'll be under your control forever. But until that happens, they will see you as a target for revenge. You've got to constantly watch your back, which will give you a terrible pain in the neck.
On the other hand, win them over by making empty promises, and you can rely on their natural fear of missing out to keep them from walking away. After waiting so long, imagine how crushing it would be to bail now, and then it arrives tomorrow. Everything you had hoped and prayed for, the day after you left. Better to hang in there, and you never know. Could be tomorrow.
"Everything will be better once you allow the Golden God to guide your path." This religious stuff was easy. You got your shepherd, you got your lambs, and then you have your delicious Sunday dinner. Anyone for more mint sauce?
"The path to salvation?" asked Malmur.
Lucky for Malmur, I wasn't some shyster looking to scam him so I could buy myself a Rolls Royce. These fake messiahs with their abject materialism. Is nothing sacred?
"Salvation, yes, sure, that's where the path's headed alright, somewhere around there. Very close. Walking distance. But first," I said, "I'll need one of your boats." Maybe I took my time getting here, but the important thing was that I had found a way to my objective.
Malmur looked confused. "I don't have a boat."
"You don't? But you're the Fishing Union, aren't you?"
"No," said Malmur. "Why would you think that? We are the Warehousemen and Teamsters Guild."
"Hoo hah!" said the thugs in unison, before going back to cleaning up.
"No boats? No boats at all?" Malmur shook his head at me. "But I need a boat."
"Where do you want to go?" asked Malmur.
"Shrine Island," I said. Perhaps I shouldn't have told him. The look of horror on Malmur's face suggested he'd rather I hadn't.
"No one has ever returned from that place."
"Because it's so lovely they didn't want to leave?" I asked optimistically.
"No," he said, "because everyone who sets foot on the beach is killed."
I wasn't frightened. How bad could it be if there was a beach? White sand, palm trees, cocktails served in coconuts, probably. Sure, maybe a monster or two, but I'd dealt with monsters before. Monsters were fine, they just got a lot of bad press. They weren't so scary once you got to know them. I could handle monsters. "What kind of monsters are they?" I asked him.
"They aren't monsters. They're people."
"Oh," I said. "Fuck."

Emerging Markets Payments (EMP), an electronic payments processing company in Africa and the Middle East, has added Premier Bank as its first customer in Somalia.
Through this partnership, EMP will provide debit and prepaid issuing services as well as ATM aquiring throughout the Premier Bank network.
The alliance will offer Premier Bank customers access to their bank accounts via the ATM network 24 hours a day. Customers can also use their secure payment cards at Points of Sale (POS) across Mogadishu.
Additionally, Premier Bank customers can access their accounts through ATMs and POS across the world while traveling.
The bank has plans to issue 15,000 cards by the end of 2015.
The deal comes as part of a wider strategic agreement between Premier Bank and MasterCard to reintroduce formal banking services into Somalia.
Premier Bank managing director Mahat Mohamed Ahmed said: "We can now provide our customers with a safe, cost-effective, convenient means of transacting, both at home and abroad.
"It is our hope that increasing payment card usage in Somalia will encourage merchants and citizens to demand more electronic payments services as they engage with and contribute to the formal economy."

Buffett Banks on Natural Gas Trains
By Jen Alic - Mar 09, 2013, 6:00 PM CST
Warren Buffett, investor extraordinaire, and his rail carrier rivals are embarking on a new journey to shift trains from diesel to natural gas as the transportation sector seeks to take advantage of the country's gas glut.
Both manufacturers of trains (General Electric Co., GE and Caterpillar Inc., CAT) and the largest rail carriers in the US (Northern Santa Fe LLC, Union Pacific Corp. UNP, and Norfolk Southern Corp. NSC) are teaming up to make natural gas the new fuel that powers locomotives. Northern Santa Fe LLC is owned by Buffet's Berkshire Hathaway Inc. (BRK/A). Union Pacific is the largest railroad by revenues.
The logic is that though diesel has been the mainstay for trains for 60 years, liquefied natural gas could cut operating costs and also curb greenhouse gas emissions.
Will it be a revolution? Well, that depends on whether natural gas prices remain low, but locomotive manufacturers and rail carriers believe the revolution is indeed here and that for trains, natural gas is to diesel what diesel once was to steam.
Related article: Barnett Shale Formation Forecast to be a Major Contributor to US Natural Gas
Right now we're only in the development phase, though. But the bottom line is that right now trains are spending a lot more on diesel than they would on natural gas. All they need is the technology to get the natural gas train engine right.
Before the end of this year, Caterpillar should unveil a pilot program for a locomotive engine that uses a mix of diesel and natural gas as a first step. Buffett's group will also begin testing on a natural gas train this year. Sometime in 2014, we can expect a decision on whether his carrier's entire fleet will be converted to natural gas.
Even so, a mass-scale conversion would take at least a decade—so it's a big gamble on the future of natural gas prices.

Well cutting cost will be a great thing for the railroads and removing a demand for diesel could help lower the cost for everybody which is also a good thing.

I was wondering about your preference for things that are old and battered, flawed and tattered.
In surfaces, perfection is less interesting. For instance, a page with a poem on it is less attractive than a page with a poem on it and some tea stains. Because the tea stains add a bit of history. It's a historical attitude. After all, texts of ancient Greeks come to us in wreckage and I admire that, the combination of layers of time that you have when looking at a papyrus that was produced in the third century BC and then copied and then wrapped around a mummy for a couple hundred years and then discovered and put in a museum and pieced together by nine different gentlemen and put back in the museum and brought out again and photographed and put in a book. All those layers add up to more and more life. You can approximate that in your own life. Stains on clothing.
In most cases that's true. I found that the front of most of our family photos look completely banal, but the backgrounds were dreadful, terrifying, and full of content. So I cut out the backgrounds, especially the parts where shadows from the people in the front fell into the background in mysterious ways. The backgrounds are full of truth.
Did it help you to understand your brother?
No. I don't think it had any effect whatsoever on my understanding. Another failure of the personal, I guess. I finally decided that understanding isn't what grief is about. Or laments. They're just about making something beautiful out of the ugly chaos you're left with when someone dies. You want to make that good. And for me, making it good means making it into an object that's exciting and beautiful to look at.
 Το βιβλίο του Μάικλ που αναφέρει η Κάρσον τελικά εκδόθηκε ως ΝOX (το σχετικό κείμενό μου με φωτογραφίες από την υπέροχη έκδοση εδώ).
Σελίδα από το The Tortilla Curtain (1995) του Τι Σι Μπόιλ (βλέπω ότι το βιβλίο στα ελληνικά κυκλοφορεί με τον τίτλο Αμέρικα): το δακτυλογραφημένο κείμενο και οι χειρόγραφες αλλαγές και διορθώσεις του συγγραφέα.
In the old days, the days of this artifact, I would have retyped this page during the following day's work, incorporating the changes you see here and feeling my way. When the novel was completed, I would make additional notes and then type a clean final draft. In the case of The Tortilla Curtain, which weighs in at 355 finished pages, this process would have occupied the better part of a month (producing, along the way, countless eraser shreds and dribbles of Wite-Out). Now I'm able to accomplish the same thing in three or four days.
Still, there was a pleasant rhythm to those hard-typing times, during which I would neatly stack up 10 to 12 finished pages daily, the whole business accumulating in a very satisfying way before I headed off to stroll through the woods or quaff a drink or two at the local bar. It was restful. Contemplative. Deeply satisfying. And let me tell you—and this is no small consideration—back then, I had the strongest fingers in the world.

Ο Όστερ λέει ότι δουλεύει τα βιβλία του παράγραφο την παράγραφο: μόλις μια παράγραφος ολοκληρωθεί στο χαρτί, την δακτυλογραφεί αμέσως, γιατί αν την αφήσει για αργότερα δεν θα μπορεί να βγάλει άκρη (είναι εμφανές, νομίζω, το γιατί από την εικόνα). Μετά επιστρέφει στο χειρόγραφο για να γράψει την επόμενη παράγραφο, και συνεχίζει έτσι μέχρι να τελειώσει το βιβλίο.

There is no evidence that I am aware of that the driver included by default in kernel version 4. Yes i reboot the system.
Please test when convenient and report back with your observations.
I have the exact same problem. On a more positive note, the device is apparently supported in our kernel-lt and kernel-ml offerings so I would suggest you try these routes if support for the device is required.
Also, be certain the router is not set to use N speeds only; auto B, G and N is preferred. I also have better 0bea with a fixed channel, either 1, 6 or 11, rather than automatic channel selection. It is doubtful that an older, less developed driver will solve anything. The following files are currently syncing to the elrepo-testing repository and should be available within the llinux half-hour — src: I tried the ndiswrapper method before.
Instability is sometimes caused by problems in the router such as auto channel select and others. Intel GenuineIntel May 26 Initializing cgroup subsys cpuset May 26 What info I have to feedback?
Device ID pairing of 0bda: Hi, I'm not sure what more we can do. Also searching for the Vendor: After making these changes, reboot the router. Moreover, I know of no driver that actually compiles and installs.
Email Required, but never shown. Centaur CentaurHauls May 26 It is possible for elrepo team to provide a driver package for this device?
All being well, there should be a package for you to test within the next 48 hours. If you get 00, that is a one-size-maybe-fits-all 0hda. I have to add that i can not use kmod-compat-wireless  because my device ID does not listed in and also i'm using 6.
Post as a guest Name. Did you reboot the system? Thank you burakkucat, I'm looking forward for this! But one time the 0bra came after login screen and in the messages file I see: Notes burakkucat administrator That is why Im changing the driver update method into a non-ndiswrapper method.

Tim Olson is someone I had hoped to talk to for a while. He is one of the most well known ultra runners out there but he has a lot of things that make him unique. The unique things that some people see are his look with his long blond hair, his dietary habits have gotten a lot of attention as has his embracing of meditation. I wanted to know some other things though like what is it like trying to be a pro runner and having a family? Is racing worth it when you don't win? And when did he know that he could make a living from this? What is it like to be sort of a poster child of meditation and diet?
Tim also talks about the growing other side of his career his Adventure Mindful retreats. He and his wife Krista have started putting these on with some other friends and partners and I really came away thinking that Tim's meditation retreats are about the only I'd ever consider going to as he shared his approach which was, find what works for you. Anyway a little plug for his passion project.

Frosty is a very impressive woman who has accomplished a ton in the running world but has also embraced the being a woman runner and role model in some really powerful ways. Everything from writing a children's book called Frosty's Footsteps (which I bought and she will sigh), to creating a web forum for women to ask each other questions about subject that can be tricky to answer to just in general embracing being open about lessons learned and struggles fought.

Pro Runner – Anna Frost part 1 Ep18
March 31, 2017 Just Curious ShowNZ, pro runner, runner, running women, trail runner, ultra runner, woman runneradmin
Anna Frost has made a career of doing some of the hardest athletic feats you can find and excelling at them. From vertical kilometer races, to adventure races to winning both the Hardrock 100 and The North Face 50…twice! She and a partner were also the first women to complete Nolans 14. Nolans 14 if you aren't acquainted is a fun little challenge in Colorado of seeing if you can do a line of 14 peaks over 14,000 feet high, with no marked trail, 40,000 feet of elevation gain and a 60 hour time limit.
What I think I liked best about Frosty (her nickname since she was a kid) though is that she has made the sports world a tool for empowering women, inspiring girls, traveling all over the world, avoiding winter and finding cool things to make jewelry out of. Having just had a little girl I can't help but hope my girl finds some of Frosty's spirit!
Also if you are at all into trail running check out her adventures and camps at www.trailrunadventures.com because they look AWESOME and yet somehow also affordable.
Follow her and adventures at @annafrosty on instagram and facebook

In my third interview exploring the career of pro ultra running I was fortunate enough to talk to Clare Gallagher. She is new, she is excited, she is funny and she one fast runner. Clare is someone just starting her career as a runner, trying to figure out how to position herself, what's important to her and how in the world do you make enough money to cover rent, much less save for a rainy day. Clare's biggest feat so far is placing as the first overall woman at the Leadville 100 mile run in 2016. Since then she has signed as an athlete with The North Face as her primary sponsor as well picking up support from a number of other sponsors. We talk how all of this came about, what's her hopes for the future and really how do you pay the bills sometimes?

Bishops of Destruction?
The sickness permeates the Church as elsewhere, says Anthony Milne
It is necessary to stress that the following article, like some others by the same writer, represent the writer's personal views only, and should not be taken as representative of editorial policy nor of any political party that this magazine supports. It should also be stated that we do not intend that this article will be the start of a long exchange of opinions on Christianity and paganism, extending over several months - as a few of our readers would like. We have more urgent matters with which to fill our space.
The fact that even the Anglican Church has been penetrated by left-liberals just proves how totalitarian, in the literal sense of the word, Britain has now become. Liberalism has now totally absorbed all our major institutions. The Anglican Church was once the living embodiment of the white English people and their culture, and the most beautiful aspect of their architectural heritage: something to be treasured, defended and conserved.
But not any more. The changes in the values of the Ministry have nothing to do with reinterpreting Biblical doctrine; in fact, they go against all Biblical teaching. For example, the ordination of women priests came about not because of any re-interpretation of theology but in order to give equal opportunities to women. All very laudable, but the Church isn't a golf club, where membership rules can be changed by a show of hands.
The fact that the Church leadership should even have been thinking of appointing 'gay' bishops or priests is just one more sign of moral and cultural deterioration in the one institution in which you would least expect it. Many on the right look on the steady leftward drift of the Church of England with loathing. Every Archbishop since Dr. Ramsey in the 1960s has done his best to 'undermine' our Christian values, and all have been appointed by naive politicians, totally unaware of the powerful cultural forces at work behind the scenes of the country they think they govern. They thought that a little bit of 'modernisation' would help stem falling congregation attendances.
Each Archbishop more liberal
All of them, instead, have been taken for a ride, since every Archbishop has been more, not less, liberal and socially destructive than the previous one; and all of them have actually accelerated the decline in church attendances. At the same time, they risk splitting the Church into, not two, but several conflicting and opposing factions. Some church leaders want to join the Catholics, and others want to link up with other presbyterian ministries: anything to stop the disgusting rot.
There is a sneaking fear that many of the top bishops and archbishops don't actually believe in the Christian faith and its doctrines. Many of them should actually be slung out of the Church. They have become the enemy within. Far from halting the cultural decline and racial and social fragmentation of this country, they have done their best to speed it up. The fastest growing religion in Britain and in Europe is Islam, which has not been challenged or opposed by the Church of England in the slightest. Indeed, many Anglican clergy think that 'multi-faith' Britain is a good idea. They get away with it because they know that the other power-brokers in this country believe the same thing.
In the July 2003 issue of Spearhead a recorded talk by Kevin Alfred Strom pointed to the remarkable power of early Christianity in uniting all the white tribes of Europe under the Christian banner, and routing the Moslems and expelling the Moors from Europe.
But Strom made an interesting point that has been echoed by fringe movements on the Right for many years: the source of European cultural greatness is in our scientific, architectural and musical heritage. Many have always suspected the treacherous undercurrents in the Christian religion, and Strom reminds us that we must define ourselves firstly in ethnic and cultural terms, and put our race and its proud history first, in the same way that other races do.
Races need their own religions
An often overlooked point is that every civilisation, every ethnic creed, has had its own religion reflecting its own legends, myths and ancestral folklore. The white Europeans had Nordic, Saxon and Pagan, not Judeo-Christian, religions, which came originally from the Middle East. Some actually go so far as to say that the Christianisation of Europe has been tragic because it has been seen to be naturally antipathetic to community or national ties, and its practical effect has been to undermine the harmony and unity of our people.
The Pagan Right has for years pointed to the inevitability of the ultra-liberalism that is inherent in Judeo-Christianity. The problem is that, alone of the world's religions, it is internationalist in spirit and recognises no borders. Other religions, even Judaism itself, are race and culture-specific, and do not believe that their own societies are responsible for the suffering of the whole world, or that they need to atone for it.
The Pagans themselves are a small and rather fragmented cultural movement. They believe in blending the best insights of our ancestors with science and ecology. They try to restore the memory of the beliefs and rituals of European villages and the rural areas of old.
Many Pagans are followers of Asatru, an early religion of a north-western Europe inhabited by the Germanic tribes that became today's ethnic communities that speak Germanic languages, which, of course, includes the English.
In the Runestone , an American journal "celebrating the indigenous religion of European Americans," we read of the preaching of courage, honour and strength and of the importance of acknowledging family and ancestral bonds. Christianity, by comparison, has feminine values and is excessively self-abasing and cloying. It over-values the 'meek' and the poorest (which might be a euphemism for the most feckless and incompetent).
The North Wind is an interesting 'Yearbook of the Odinic Rite' (Odin was an important Saxon god), containing rather poetic and whimsical tales of early Saxon peoples. Occasionally, however, a forthright and bitter article will appear highly critical of Christianity's legacy. Andreas Ludwig sees great danger in the growth of lslam in Europe that Christianity has done little to combat. Whereas the latter is globalistic, the former is imperialistic and militant. It wishes, says Ludwig, to transmit an Arabian culture virtually by foreign conquest rather than by spiritual conversion.
Another Nordic writer, Thor Sannet, has nothing but contempt for America. After the war, its citizens turned to occult beliefs and demonised and marginalised its fundamentalist Christians, who at least attempted to preserve their European heritage.
Darkening of America
Parasitism and vampirisation now rule, as the white community allows massive transfers of wealth to alien recipient groups, who now have powerful religious institutions working for them in the media. "America," he writes, "has become a darkening social miasma with increasingly Third World characteristics, tainted with the stench of decadence and evil. The voices of Asgad (an Odinic god) have gone unheeded, and so chaos and Ragnarok and Loki (Nordic devils) have come as a sure reward for folly."
The more cerebral Pagan Right, largely the prerogative of European intellectuals, agrees with these sentiments. But, rather than returning to forms of ancient worship, they wish to give more emphasis to the pre-Christian political, philosophical and cultural heritage of the Greeks and Romans.
The Pagan right has an acronym, GRECE, which stands for the French equivalent of the Movement for the Study of European Civilization. They deplore the fact that during the 20th century totalitarian movements have arisen which have been inimical to European progress and cohesiveness, especially Marxism and capitalism, which have both been internationalist in ethos and have emphasised economism and materialism.
Fascism, instead, was nationalistic, but it was non-ideological because nationalism does not have a universalistic application. It is surprising how often this is misunderstood. A further marked difference between the 'isms' is that only liberalism believes in an open frontiers policy, which clearly the Soviets and Fascists did not. The Fascist leaders, in both Italy and Germany, were also more interested in and sympathetic to the earlier pre-Christian religions.
However, it is inevitable that the New Right in Europe quite naturally distances itself from any overt criticism of Judaism because of the appalling legacy of fascist-inspired anti-semitic excesses. Nevertheless, the impact of white Jewish culture on the West has been profound: it has contributed enormously to our cultural and scientific progress. But at the same time it has legitimised the existence of diasporas, and has been indirectly responsible for the cultural norms manifested in the scores of new books on immigration and human rights that say, in so many words, that immigration should be a right for everyone, regardless of its effect on the recipient countries.
All this is on the fringe, of course. Paganism is complicated, dated and sub-cultural, and hardly likely to generate a mass following among people in quest of spiritual hope or a better life.
Yet the Pagan and New Right have shown up the legacy of liberal Christianity for what it is, especially its cultural treachery and its sham claim that it represents the unchanging attitudes and values of the indigenous people of Britain and Europe (as it once did), and listens to their grievances, wishes to preserve and protect European moral and cultural heritage from foreign conquest and alien beliefs.
Its critics provide an important insight as to where Europe and White America have gone disastrously wrong, and why their indigenous peoples may not even survive as races in their own homelands. Paganism would never, because it believes in cultural self-preservation, have allowed alien forces and alien people to acquire the enormous influence that they do in present-day Europe.


Luke 4:13 When the devil had finished all this tempting, he left him until an opportune time. What does this mean?
Born Again. What Does This Mean and Where Did The Concept Originate?
At every level of the Connection we shall engage in carrying out the spirit of the original Free African Society, out of which the AME Church evolved: that is to seek out and save the lost, and to serve the needy. It is also our duty to continue to encourage all members to become involved in all aspects of church training.


So I tried out my new Maybelline products when I went to school this past Saturday. I'm sorry to say I did not enjoy the new Color Tattoo eyeshadows. Unfortunately you almost have to use your fingers. I tried using a brush at first and the color did not distribute evenly nor could I smooth it out. So I used my pointer finger to apply the orange color to my entire lid, then I used my ring finger to apply the red/rust color to the outer half of my eye and lastly using my pinky I placed the white under my brow and in the inner corner of my eye. I didn't line my eyes heavily because I ran out of time and because my class is a morning one I sometimes think eyeliner is a bit too intense for so early on in the day. So here are some photos of before and after.
I applied everything around 8:30 in the morning and the second (after) photo was taken around 6:30 pm. The colors did last. They do everything they promise to do, I simply did not like the application of the shadow. I might try using them as a base sometime, but as for just everyday wear, I might have to skip on these.


Pale lavender immediately sprang to mind. Or perhaps a paler version of black raspberry. And there are so many beautiful shades of green-blue, that I'm sure you could find something that didn't look institutional.
Myra – thanks to your psotI went to Wal Mart and got the khaki butterfly camoflauge. I am going to make a dress out of it for work. I have to work the Military Retiree Appreciation Day. I'm either go to use that or some bright green camo with black skulls from the Debi Mumm collection at JoAnns. Either way I am going to make a dress out of each.Thanks again Myra for pointing me toward that fabric.
I am voting for any pastel with taupe/gray or vice versa.Or the navy/white/red accents thing.yeah, I got some preppy genes in me.@cookie, ask Janet at Lanetz Living and Jen at Mom's patterns too. Those ladies are very resourceful when it comes to finding patterns.
I dreamed about this dress last night. Apparently my subconscience wants you to do it in a blue chambray with red piping/buttons. Not something my conscience mind probably would have come up with, but I have to admit that it looked pretty cute!
Just expose yourself to solid-colour fabrics, and choose the one which sings to you. Might be blood-orange, mustard, burgundy, rose, extra-dark red, navy . . .
Your mention of football references in something marketed for women reminds me of baseball puns I recently saw in a Worl War II-era knitting magazine called Minerva (it's at New York Public Library, where I work). The introduction to a series of knitted stocking patterns (in V. 63, 1941) promises: "22 Hits, No Runs, No Errors"!

Q: How to mixing an array values in order? I'm trying to mix arrays values to display in order:
$array_one = array('a','b','c');
$array_two = array('1','2','3','4','5');

The result should be:
array('a','1','b','2','c','3','4','5');

Thank you.

A: This gives you what you want
$array_one = array('a','b','c');
$array_two = array('1','2','3','4','5');
$maxCount = max(array(count($array_one),count($array_two)));

$result = array();
for ($i=0; $i < $maxCount; $i++) {
  if (!empty($array_one[$i])) {
    $result[] = $array_one[$i];
  }
  if (!empty($array_two[$i])) {
    $result[] = $array_two[$i];
  }
}

var_dump($result);

Output
array(8) {
  [0]=>
  string(1) "a"
  [1]=>
  string(1) "1"
  [2]=>
  string(1) "b"
  [3]=>
  string(1) "2"
  [4]=>
  string(1) "c"
  [5]=>
  string(1) "3"
  [6]=>
  string(1) "4"
  [7]=>
  string(1) "5"
}

A: If both arrays have the same number of elements you could use array_walk and array_combine to create what you want.
$array_one = array('a','b','c','d','e');
$array_two = array('1','2','3','4','5');

$combined_array = array_combine($array_one, $array_two);
array_walk($combined_array, create_function('$value, $key', 'echo "$key $value ";'));

A: Hi @andrei you first find the length of both arrays, create a new array for the result,use two for loops in the inner loop just assign the values in new array and increment the loops. hope it give you expected result.

Our little E is now nearing two years old. Just like his older two sisters, he has reached a stage where he likes to throw food on the floor. It is a frustrating stage to go through since things can get messy. However, it is a normal part of development and he will eventually grow out of it.
Why do they like to throw things so much?
Simple answer is because they can. This is a rich stage of new discoveries and growth both with motor skills as well cognitive skills. In a simple sense, they have discovered gravity. Things always fall down and never up! They also realize they have power to do certain things. Perhaps it is interesting and fun to see all the reactions they get from doing certain actions.
How best to respond as caregivers?
Tough but it is always advised to stay calm. In fact if your response is calm, collected and consistent every time they may get over the novelty of throwing food faster. You can try to convey to them what is ok to throw and what is not ok to throw. During play time, they can throw balls or soft objects as long as it is not towards anybody. During mealtimes, praise them when they do not throw food on the floor and put it in their mouths instead. Depending on the age and maturity of the child you can try giving consequences... like having them pick up the food or giving them a short time out. Patience is required and at the end of the day, the phase has to run its course. There is an end.
