Vance Wealth forms registered investment advisor firm
21 Oct 2020 by Vance Wealth
Following six months of massive change and volatility, Vance Wealth, a Santa Clarita-based financial planning firm, is on track with its 10-year plan and entering a period of intentional growth.
After 17 years with Raymond James Financial Services, the locally owned company formed an independent registered investment advisor, or RIA, firm, purchased its second building in Santa Clarita and grew its staff by 50% in a three-year period.
"This next phase in the evolution of our firm allows us to use the full extent of our expertise for the benefit of our clients and community," firm founder and President John Vance said in a prepared statement, "and that's the driving force behind all of our decisions here at Vance Wealth."
"We're following the natural progression of a strong, vibrant firm and taking a major step toward independence," Vance said. "Forming our own RIA will help us focus on becoming a firm of the future, while simultaneously offering our clients even more tailored solutions to achieve their goals and dreams."
Expanding its physical space, Vance Wealth purchased the building adjacent to the Santa Clarita-based firm and has been remodeling to accommodate recent and future growth.
"We've been hard at work building out our new space, which gives us the room to double in size over the next decade," Vance added. "The new building houses offices for our growing team and a new media room, which will allow us to share even more information with our community through webinars, videos and virtual presentations. But all that space isn't useful without the right team to fill it."
As the firm continues to grow, Vance Wealth is expected to look for Santa Clarita-based candidates who are involved with the community, a quality that has become an important part of company culture.
The firm also plans to double-down on its duty to support the Santa Clarita Valley community. For example, Vance currently serves as chair of the board of directors for Single Mothers Outreach of Santa Clarita, and in 2021, Vance is set to chair the board of directors for the SCV Chamber of Commerce.
Vance Wealth (VanceWealth.com) is headquartered in Santa Clarita, with an additional office in Pasadena.
Compass - Erika Kauzlarich-Bird
Longtime local Realtor opens Compass real estate office
21 Sep 2020 by Compass - Erika Kauzlarich-Bird
Santa Clarita, Calif. — Erika Kauzlarich-Bird, former Southland Regional Association of Realtors president and lifelong Santa Clarita resident, joined Compass, an innovative real estate brokerage, this summer to help SCV families find their next dream home.
Bringing more than 25 years of experience in managing all aspects of the sale as an agent, manager and entrepreneur, Kauzlarich-Bird decided now was the right time to bring something new to the Santa Clarita Valley real estate community.
"I just knew this was the right move for me because I love this community and what I do so much," Kauzlarich-Bird said. "Having worked with different agencies over the years, I know from experience that Compass will help me build my 'dream team' of agents."
While she's worked on all aspects of a home sale, most previously working in a management role, Kauzlarich-Bird realized how much she missed working in sales, directly with families looking for their perfect place.
Real estate is truly a family business, with Erika at the helm and her mother behind her. Diane Kauzlarich, who still lives in the Placerita Canyon home where Erika grew up, was an early mentor for her. During their years as a mother-daughter team, Erika worked in all aspects of real estate.
At Compass, she enjoys running her office with the creative energy and innovative technology of a startup firm – plus the experience and sophistication of a luxury brand, she said.
While every industry is looking to cutting-edge technology to create social distancing for employees and customers alike, Compass has been a leader in this area for years. Compass agents are trained in the latest tools and tech available, along with traditional care and amenities. Erika's experience combined with bonuses like Compass' concierge service make the entire process convenient, intelligent and seamless.
"When I heard about what we have access to with this brokerage, I knew we'd have what we needed to keep our clients' best interests at the heart of every sale and purchase," Kauzlarich-Bird said. "Compass isn't about the agent; it really is all about the client – a philosophy that aligns with my personal approach to real estate."
That's a perfect fit for Kauzlarich-Bird, who also enjoyed the leadership portion of her past industry roles, and looks forward to mentoring agents on her team.
"It just felt right to come back to my home base in the Santa Clarita Valley," said Kauzlarich-Bird. "This is my hometown, and I can't think of a better place on Earth to buy a home, work and raise a family."
Erika Kauzlarich-Bird is a community-driven real estate agent in the Santa Clarita Valley and a broker associate for Compass, who can be reached at connectwitherika.com, erikabird@outlook.com or 661-510-3136.
About Erika Kauzlarich-Bird
Erika Kauzlarich-Bird is a lifelong Santa Clarita resident who's active in a number of professional and nonprofit organizations. In addition to her 25 years of experience, including SRAR leadership, she's also worked as an advocate on behalf of SCV homeowners for the California Association of Realtors and the Santa Clarita Valley Chamber of Commerce. Her community involvement includes volunteer work with school site councils, parent-teacher organizations, the Santa Clarita Valley Senior Center at Bella Vida and the equine therapy nonprofit Heads Up Therapy and Blue Star Ranch.

Best Cyber Monday Deals Los Angeles Hotels
losangeleshotelsreview / By LosAngelesGuru
$155 as well as upFor a 92-year-old hotel, the Resort Figueroa is very "on fad," as marketing experts like to state. It was constructed by the Y.W.C.A. as an exclusively women hostelry a place where solitary females, consisting of aiming actresses, could stay without fear of the Harvey Weinsteins of the world. The Figueroa allegedly also gave the USA its first women resort manager: Maude Bouldin, a motorcyle-riding scenic tour de force.
After that the long decrease of midtown Los Angeles took a toll. By 2014, when brand-new owners began a $60 million luxury revamp, the hotel had a Morocco-by-way-of-Sweden theme (do not ask) and was accommodating discount German excursion teams. The renovation, which was finished previously this year, leans into the Figueroa's feminist history, with art work from neighborhood female musicians on the walls and typical areas designed to host women-centric "beauty salons."The Fig, as locals recognize it, rests across the road from L.A.
. The Grammy Gallery is additionally located there. Midtown stretches in the opposite instructions, providing the gentrified foodie temple Grand Central Market and the brought back Cinema at Ace Hotel, which hosts indie bands and also displays art films. The cavernous Flower Market to the south is eye-popping and also only fees $1 admission on Saturdays.
Priced at $359.20 for a Saturday evening in very early November, not consisting of tax obligation, our "classic queen" space on an upper floor felt like a closet, and the sight was mostly of a wall. A kindly equipped minibar occupied a lot of the real closet, leaving no area for a travel suitcase.
(My companion, Joe, sarcastically kept in mind that the room did include two condoms, nevertheless.) The thermostat appeared to have a mind of its own, which made me bloodthirsty. On the plus side, there was a basket of cost-free treats Oreos, Red Vines and the bed was comfortable. The space was additionally really quiet.
The bare walls resembled incomplete cement and among the 2 lighting fixtures alongside the mirror was missing out on; a bare light bulb simply dangled there. Transforming on the shower required the navigating of two counterproductive levers, as well as it was so dark because corner of the bathroom that it was tough to inform which container was shampoo and also which one was body clean.
Bouldin!Before dinner, we picked up beverages (a martini for Joe and also a cucumber mint lemonade for me) at Rick's, an enchanting indoor-outdoor lounge.

Our web server, Christopher, patiently answered my 700 concerns about the small plates and also "pintxos" on the menu. We inhaled the fried kale lollipop with dill crme frache ($10) and plaything box squash with avocado and also olives ($14) prior to relocating on to meals, consisting of fried hen with a barbequed peach and also jalapeo salad ($29) spicy and also delicious, also if the fruit was inedibly unripe – Best Cyber Monday Deals Los Angeles Hotels.
We bought space solution using an iPad set down on the nightstand as well as were given a 35-minute wait time. It took a hr and also 14 mins for our simple order of coffee, yogurt as well as a pork, egg and also cheese sandwich to show up. The web server shrugged when I complained as well as mentioned that the suggestion was currently consisted of.
Dogs are welcome to stay with their owners for a $50 charge.

Alyssa Powell/Business Expert When you're a Los Angeles-based entertainment and also lifestyle journalist like me, you commonly locate on your own at the Four Seasons Hotel Los Angeles at Beverly Hills – Best Cyber Monday Deals Los Angeles Hotels. That's due to the fact that the hotel is popular as one of the ideal seen-and-be seen locations for a working go to as well as a power lunch or supper around.
But it's not all stiff organisation as well as formality. As a 4 Seasons, the resort is welcoming to family members as well as vacationers of all types looking for the consistency of a renowned worldwide deluxe chain. Of training course with the passing star and bold-faced name, it's also terrific for people enjoying. I count myself lucky to call it something of a 2nd residence in town.
I'll never neglect the moment I went to with my husband for a staycation when I was nine months pregnant, or much more recently, over the cheery holiday period when the common spaces were festooned with floral and also style setups from celeb flower designer Jeff Leatham. Therefore, it's not a surprise it made our list of the finest resorts in Los Angeles for 2020. Prices for entry-level spaces right here begin in the $400s, according to on the internet search engine result at the time of magazine.
On my recent Christmas keep, I remained in a mid-tier Deluxe Veranda King room, which was comped for testimonial functions, yet normally books for $595. I have actually constantly seen basic areas, which are actually bigger, and also with a reduced price point. Unless you're traveling with family members or planning to amuse in-room, in my experience, a standard-sized room is the most effective value for first-class lodgings that are roomy, extravagant, and also prime for people-watching.

On 10 May 2018, the Secretary of State for Transport approved a development consent order (DCO) for the Silvertown Tunnel project, which went through the Nationally Significant Infrastructure Project (NSIP) system.
The Silvertown DCO authorises a road tunnel to be constructed under the River Thames in East London. It will provide a new connection between the A102 Blackwall Tunnel approach on the Greenwich Peninsula in the Royal Borough of Greenwich and the Tidal Basin roundabout junction on the A1020 Lower Lea Crossing/Silvertown Way in the London Borough of Newham.
The main purpose of the new tunnel is to relieve traffic congestion and improve reliability at the existing Blackwall Tunnel by providing an alternative river crossing route between the Royal Docks and Lower Lea Valley area and Greenwich Peninsula. Tolls will be charged.
The application was made by TfL. It was accepted for examination on 31 May 2016 and the examination was completed on 11 April 2017. The Examining Authority's report was issued on 11 July 2017, which meant a decision by the Secretary of State was expected in October 2017. However, the decision was delayed twice, first in October 2017 and then November 2017, to take into account the government's plan for tackling roadside nitrogen dioxide.
A number of concerns were raised about air quality, but the Secretary of State agreed with the Planning Inspectorate that the impact of the construction stage on air quality, such as dust emissions and odours, would be kept to a minimum through implementation of the Code of Construction Practice.
There is now a 6-week period within which the Secretary of State's decision to grant the DCO can be challenged.

Bolton Wanderers could face being placed in to administration after a £4m loan repayment offer by current chairman Ken Anderson was rejected.
The Championship club now faces the prospect of a 12 point deduction and transfer embargo imposed by the EFL should they be placed in to administration.
In a statement released on the club's official website, Anderson wrote: "I am very disappointed that Stuart Wilson and Michael Henson of Blu Marble Capital Ltd have decided to reject my offer to repay the loan they originally made to the club through Sportshield Ltd and place the club in administration.
"The amount received by the club was £4m and l offered to repay this plus substantial interest. Unfortunately, this offer was rejected.
"As they come to understand and appreciate the consequences and repercussions of this action, l feel sure that they will live to regret their actions for what can only have been personal reasons as their actions do not make commercial sense.
Sportshield BWFC Ltd, led by former Bolton striker Dean Holdsworth formed part of a takeover of the club in March 2016 but was wound up in August 2017, due to a petition lodged by BluMarble Capital Ltd over the non-repayment of the loan.

Chris Knight: If Cats hadn't ruined cats, I'd suggest the addition of a feline familiar for Hayek
Tiffany Haddish plays Mia Carter and Rose Byrne plays Mel Paige in Like A Boss.	Paramount Pictures
In the first girl-power buddy picture of the '20s, Tiffany Haddish and Rose Byrne play BFFs who are railroaded by an evil cosmetics company. This is a fantastic reversal of expectations, since we all know the beauty industry is one of the kindest and most altruistic sectors of the economy.
You see what I did there? I hid my true feelings beneath a rejuvenating foundation of shimmering sarcasm. And if you like your humour similarly skin-deep, you'll be right at home with this broad comedy from director Miguel Arteta.
Mel (Byrne) and Mia (Haddish) are so close they share a house and a rattly old clunker in which they carpool to Mel & Mia's, the beauty company they own and operate. The store features two sassy employees (Jennifer Coolidge, Billy Porter) and, unbeknownst to Mia, a mountain of debt.
But their financial troubles seem to be over when Claire Luna (Salma Hayek) of cosmetics giant Oviedo offers to invest in their company. Keen-eyed viewers will note that Oviedo HQ looks like the lair of an evil villain, complete with sycophantic henchmen; if Cats hadn't ruined cats, I'd suggest the addition of a feline familiar for Hayek. But Mel has dollar signs in her eyes, and the friends agree to the partnership.
Joker, The Irishman, Once Upon A Time in Hollywood lead 2020 Oscar nominations
There are a few extraneous subplots involving Mia's much younger boyfriend and the ladies' circle of friends, but it's all just an excuse to throw in a few comedic highlights about marijuana, waxing, babies and sex. Nothing feels essential; if you exfoliated this screenplay you'd be left with nothing but a cover page and a couple of staples.
Like a Boss runs a mere 82 minutes, but even that feels like it could use something to hide its excess wrinkles. You know how some comedies feel like they let the actors ad lib all day, and then used all the best bits? Well, this one seems to be made of the outtakes. I suspect there's a better version of it languishing on a cutting-room floor like so many lipstick-blotted tissues and mascara-stained cotton balls.
Record-setting ticket sales confirmed for WIFF 2019


The organization is focused on abortion, and little else.
Planned Parenthood released its latest annual report over the weekend, accounting for its activities during the 2017–18 fiscal year, and the information inside does much to substantiate common criticisms of the organization. Here are four dishonest claims that are disproven by Planned Parenthood's own statistics.
1. Planned Parenthood is a routine health-care provider.
The new report indicates that Planned Parenthood's provision of abortion increased by more than 11,000 last year, from 321,384 in 2016–17 to 332,757 this past year. That's also the highest number of abortions that Planned Parenthood clinics have performed in any year since 2011–12.
Judging by the most recent numbers available from the Centers for Disease Control, which collects data on abortion rates from every state that chooses to report its statistics, and the Guttmacher Institute, which estimates annual abortions for the entire U.S., this is likely one-third to one-half of all the abortions performed in the U.S.
By any standard, Planned Parenthood exists to facilitate abortion in the United States. Perhaps this is why the group's new president, Leana Wen, recently described abortion as Planned Parenthood's "core mission," despite its recent PR campaign — with the slogan "This Is Health Care" — to convince Americans otherwise.
At the same time, the number of non-abortion services provided at Planned Parenthood clinics decreased in nearly every major category during the 2017–18 fiscal year. Planned Parenthood's provision of contraception decreased by 80,000, cancer screenings by 45,000, and other "women's health services" such as well-woman exams and prenatal services decreased by 13,000. The only category of services that significantly increased, other than abortion procedures, was tests and treatment for sexually transmitted diseases, which went up by 300,000.
2. Abortion is just 3 percent of Planned Parenthood's business.
As in years past, Planned Parenthood's annual report claims that abortion is a mere 3.4 percent of the organization's "medical services" for last fiscal year. This is a convenient fiction that Planned Parenthood and its defenders have long used to obscure the fact that the group is, by far, the most prolific abortion provider in the country.
The group's report itself provides the information with which to debunk the 3 percent claim. Planned Parenthood arrives at this statistic by dividing the abortion procedures for the year (332,757) by the number of "services" the group provided (9.7 million). The report defines a "service" as a "discrete clinical interaction," such as the administration of an STI test.
Consider what this means in practice. If a woman visits a Planned Parenthood facility to obtain an abortion, and, while she's there, is also given a pregnancy test, an STI test, a cancer screening, and contraception, the abortion procedure would be just 20 percent of the "services" she received. This is why the group takes pains to list its annual "services," which is much higher than the number of patients Planned Parenthood saw last year (2.4 million). Using this deceptive formula, the report manipulates the data to make it appear as if abortion is a tiny fraction of its work, though a much higher percentage of actual patients who visit Planned Parenthood clinics are there, first and foremost, to obtain an abortion.
3. Planned Parenthood clinics are the only place that millions of American women can obtain necessary health care.
The central way in which the group's annual report disproves this claim is by illustrating that Planned Parenthood's provision of most actual health-care services, aside from STI tests and treatment, in fact has declined from one year to the next.
The group's adoption referrals, for example, decreased by 1,000 last year, dropping to just under 3,000 total, which means that Planned Parenthood clinics performed 118 abortions for every one adoption referral.
The report also notes that Planned Parenthood has "more than 600 health centers" in the United States. Compare that with the more than 13,000 federally qualified health-care centers (FQHCs) all across the country, which provide far more health-care services without performing abortions.
A series of maps from the Charlotte Lozier Institute put this in even better perspective. As of 2015, California had by far the highest number of Planned Parenthood facilities in the U.S., at 114; by contrast, California has nearly 1,700 FQHCs. Or consider New York, which has the next most Planned Parenthood locations, at 58, but has 625 FQHC locations.
Some states with smaller populations have no Planned Parenthood clinics at all (North Dakota) and some, such as Kentucky, South Carolina, and Kansas, have only one or two locations. These states, meanwhile, each have several hundred community health centers.
And yet Planned Parenthood would like us to believe that, if not for its clinics, millions of American women wouldn't have access to health care at all. Regardless of whether one opposes abortion, the numbers reveal that this is a lie.
4. Planned Parenthood isn't political and won't be able to serve women if it loses its federal funding.
The financial numbers in the group's annual report show that Planned Parenthood is far from destitute. Last fiscal year, its total net assets increased from $1.6 billion to $1.9 billion. The amount of government funding that it received, in the form of both grants and reimbursements, increased by $20 million, from $544 million to $564 million.
Meanwhile, Planned Parenthood raked in $100 million more in private contributions than it had the previous fiscal year, bringing the grand total of donations to $631 million. Given its many high-profile supporters and its billions in assets, it is ludicrous for the group to claim that it relies heavily on federal reimbursements and grants to conduct its business.
But for Planned Parenthood, receiving government funding isn't about the money itself — it's about keeping up appearances. As long as the group remains on the government dole, it can maintain the fiction that it is a federally sanctioned provider of basic health care. At the same time, this funding frees up other money that the group can use (via its political-action arm) to elect politicians who favor abortion-friendly policies — including continuing to fund Planned Parenthood.
In its previous annual report, the group noted about $166 million that it had spent on categories such as "promote health equity," "movement building," and "strengthen and secure Planned Parenthood." In this year's report, these categories had vanished, replaced by more mundane descriptions such as "healthcare support" and "advocacy." The group's spending on both "management" and "fundraising" also increased last fiscal year. Together, these expenditures indicate that the group has plenty of funding that it continues to pour into lobbying for policies that help its bottom line.
Recent Marist polling shows that three-quarters of Americans support limiting abortion to, at most, the first three months of pregnancy. Planned Parenthood knows that unlimited, taxpayer-funded abortion on demand is unpopular, so the group and its defenders spread misinformation and fictions about its activities. But Planned Parenthood's own annual report does the work of its critics, showing that the organization is, first and foremost, a corporation that profits from the routine killing of unborn human beings.

While that's terrific news, this implies that competition will eventually ramp up for medical device firms.
Consequently, businesses have to innovate to stay afloat. However, you will not get an advantage by sticking with traditional sales strategies such as trade shows, workshops, print advertisements, telemarketing, billboards, and press releases. Such approaches are not just interruptive but are also generic and pricey.
A study conducted by Roper Public Affairs reveals that 80% of organization decision-makers claimed they prefer to get information through articles, and not advertisements. 70% claimed that content makes them feel closer to a business, and 60% stated that content generated by enterprises helps them to make smarter purchasing choices.
An alternative method that has recently been developed is known as the 'Inbound Methodology.' This innovative technique entails drawing in brand-new prospects by utilizing informative and relevant content. The Earnest Agency reported that 81% of clients begin the buying process by searching for details online.
Customers are harassed every day with posts on virtually every subject conceivable. To attract attention in this crowd, you have to develop long-form content that will capture the focus of both your target market and the search engines. Frequently publishing content like long blog posts will help position you as an authority in your specific niche, drive even more website traffic to your site, and improve the search engine position of your site. You could also repurpose long-form content to be used in email e-newsletters or premium content like eBooks.
Fact: A research study by Odork found that long-form content performs much better than short-form content does.
Writing content for other websites will undoubtedly place you as an authority in the medical device sector, draw in web traffic to your site, and create backlinks to your site. Try to find trusted medical device websites that allow guest posts. Look especially for websites that have a competent domain name authority (DA) and a considerable degree of engagement. Write awesome blog posts that resolve issues presently trending in your sector. Do not forget to link to your firm's site in the writer biography and be receptive when your readers comment on your posts.
Email is one of the most efficient devices for nurturing your leads and transforming them into buyers. According to a recent State of Marketing study by Salesforce, 80% of services state that e-mails add considerably to their overall earnings. You can ask your site visitors to provide their email addresses in exchange for a free eBook or report. When you have a list of contacts, routinely send e-mails containing instructional content that would interest your leads. Make sure that your e-mails are maximized for all devices. Create engaging headings to entice your leads to open your e-mails. An appropriate email campaign will certainly help you create faithful followers and gain a competitive edge.
When it pertains to marketing, social proof is crucial, especially for leads that aren't typically aware of your brand name. Among the most effective methods of developing social proof is by leveraging user-generated content (UGC). According to a study by Bazaar Voice, 84% of customers claim that UGC affects their purchasing choices. UGC transforms your consumers into supporters that promote your services and products. For example, you can accumulate video testimonials from your satisfied clients and publish them on your site. Additionally, you can run a picture contest where consumers are asked to upload a picture of themselves using your solution to enter. Such UGC will enhance your brand name recognition and will help bring in more web traffic to your site.
According to Tomoson, 51% of marketing experts state that influencer marketing allows them to draw in better consumers. Before connecting to influencers, you have to develop your objectives for influencer marketing. This can range from increasing your social media presence, reaching brand-new markets, and increasing brand name recognition. The next step is to search for influencers that help with your goals. Look for people that are popular in the medical device sector and have a large following. They need likewise to be individuals with great credibility. Make sure to frequently measure, assess, and track your projects to see if your strategy is working.
A call-to-action (CTA) is a button or message that is meant to compel your site visitors to take a requested action. When somebody clicks the CTA, they are taken to a landing page or an item page. Make sure your CTA is short and outlines what your CTA will provide. 'Start a free trial,' 'Get our free eBook' and 'Join our email listing' are some examples of possible CTAs you can use. Bear in mind to put an appropriate CTA at the end of every blog post or email.
Standing out in an extremely saturated market seems daunting, however with the right strategies you can get a competitive edge.

Agents, players knew about Zimbabwe series: Cricket Australia
By Jon Pierik
January 15, 2020 — 6.38am
Cricket Australia has moved to ease tensions over a slated one-day series against Zimbabwe, declaring agents and players knew about this tournament before nominating for the lucrative new English domestic competition.
Prominent sports agent James Erskine, who has David Warner in his stable, has told The Age and Sydney Morning Herald that the dashing opener would honour his commitment to the Hundred competition which runs from July 17 until August 16. Warner was one of four Australians to pocket the maximum amount of $236,000 at the player auction in October.
However, Australia are due to host three one-day internationals against Zimbabwe in a Top End series in August, clashing with the end of the Hundred. This series was originally slated for June in the International Cricket Council's future tours program.
Erskine insists CA has "retrospectively" adjusted the dates for the series, coming after players, including Steve Smith, Aaron Finch and Mitchell Starc, had also been coveted selections in the Hundred draft.
CA on Tuesday said the expectation was that players would take part in the ODI series despite the clash of dates but, as the club-versus-country debate simmers, CA on Wednesday released an email from operations manager Peter Roach that was sent to agents and state associations on August 5 - before the Hundred's draft on October 20.
In the email, Roach says: "We have received some correspondence from the ECB re its's new "The Hundred" competition. The first competition will run from 17 July to 16 August 2020, and include eight men's and eight women's teams. Players will be expected to report for duty from 12 July 2020. All player will require an NOC (No Objection Certificate) from CA to compete which will, as normal, be subject to fitness and the player not being required for international duty.

"For further information, the Australian men's T20 and ODI teams will be playing matches in England just prior to The Hundred, and the ODI team also has an existing FTP commitment of 3 matches in early August in Australia versus Zimbabwe. The Australian women's team has no planned activity at this point during The Hundred."
Erskine wasn't the only manager claiming CA had retrospectively shifted the dates of the ODI series, leaving players concerned about the clash of dates.
The England and Wales Cricket Board wants CA to use the Zimbabwe series as a developmental campaign for younger or inexperienced players. The ECB has poured millions of dollars into the Hundred, a tournament involving 100-ball matches.
Erskine had said on Tuesday: "There was no cricket on at the time. Cricket Australia can't basically schedule retrospectively against the Hundred. There are lots of Australians who have made commitments to the Hundred. My gut feeling is they [players] will all turn around and say: 'Find some other dates'.
"They [CA] have got to get their scheduling much further in advance, they can't just do it now. That's my view.
"They have got to really think about what they are doing here. They have stuffed up their summer of cricket with a deal with India. They have got to be very careful with what they do. They are meant to be custodians of the game. Quite frankly, they have got to get their act together."
Zimbabwe, who have had a tumultuous cricketing history, haven't toured Australia for a bilateral series since the summer of 2003-04.

Institutional investors are entering a new era in which they seek not only to generate financial returns but also to create greater social good. They recognize that capital can be used to unleash societal progress and impact. Without a clearly articulated authentic purpose, however, few organizations will capture that underlying excitement and realize the full potential of their societal impact.
Purpose is a central, organizing principle that guides employee actions at all levels of the company and provides an authentic foundation for strategy, culture, investment decisions, and societal impact. Unilever's purpose-driven brands, for example, are growing 50% faster than the rest of the brands in the company's portfolio, and they are delivering 60% of the company's total growth. Additional research by BrightHouse of 25 large, public US companies in the consumer, technology, and financial-services sectors found that the companies with the strongest sense of purpose integrated across their operations showed the highest ten-year TSR.
Institutional investors have a similar opportunity to articulate a purpose that goes beyond financial returns. Rather than deploy a small portion of capital toward societal impact, investors can start by articulating an authentic purpose that manifests the firm's reason for being and guides investment objectives. In so doing, they can express how those objectives create greater good in the world—two goals that mutually reinforce each other. (See the exhibit.) Purpose informs an institutional investor's strategy for creating societal impact by providing guidance on where to concentrate resources. This allows the firm to focus on achieving the biggest impact in a sustainable way; over time, a sustained focus on the issue will only reinforce the investor's purpose.
Through an authentic purpose, investment firms can also capture many other well-documented benefits, including better productivity, employee engagement, innovation, and a more compelling brand story.
Thus far, many institutional investors and pension funds have lagged in unearthing their own distinct purpose. Based on our analysis of a sample of institutional investors, many have defined a mission statement of sorts, but most of those declarations do not represent a true purpose. For example, some have defined their purpose in terms of generating the highest possible returns for the entities whose money they manage—a universally applicable premise for the work that all institutional investors do.

Senate Banking Committee Remains Open to Idea of Digital Dollar in Tuesday's Hearing. If you want a measure of how far things have come in terms of the acceptability of the digital dollar idea in Washington from something that a year or so ago would have been a nutty, fringe idea, read the opening paragraph to Nikhilesh De's writeup of this hearing: "Not every U.S. lawmaker is on board with the idea of a central bank digital currency (CBDC) or digital dollar, but no one explicitly rejected it during a hearing of the powerful Senate Banking Committee."
Ethereum trading is the fastest way to earn Ethereum, but there is a high risk for beginners. Similar to other investment platforms, many scammers target the Ethereum to scam innocent people. Unlike real currencies, if the digital currencies are sent to an address, it is gone. We cannot track or cancel the blockchain transactions. So, be careful not to invest ETH in unknown new sites that promise high numbers.
The yield cap policy would be new for the Fed, but it's really an extension of an ongoing effort to do one thing: get the market to believe its intentions. The way monetary policy works these days, it's meaningless unless the market behaves according to what the Fed wants. It's not about what the central bank does per se; it's about what it says and whether those words are incorporated into investor behavior. But the more it doubles down on this, the more the Fed creates situations in which it risks having its words held against it. And that puts it at risk of losing its most important currency: the public's trust. Commitments to price targets are always especially risky – ask Norman Lamont, the U.K. Chancellor of the Exchequer, who had to abandon the pound's currency peg in 1993 because the market didn't believe the U.K. would back its promises. The Fed has unlimited power to buy bonds, but whether it always has the will to do so will depend on politics and other factors. Once it's locked into a commitment, the stakes go up. For now, the markets – most importantly, foreign exchange markets – still trust the Fed. But, as the saying goes, trust is hard to earn, easy to lose.
COINBASE:ETHBTC has been looking pretty strong lately. On the weekly chart it appears to be one of the leading altcoins (as expected) in trading vs. BTC. The weekly chart has several indicators now trending towards bullish bias. The daily chart that I'm highlighting however is not as clear at this moment. I've circled two areas of interest on the price chart....
Ethereum is what is known as an open-source, blockchain-based, distributed computing platform. It has smart contract features that enable the processing of contractual agreements online. These smart contracts can be used to process the transfer of assets, such as shares, property, and money. When a smart contract is run on a blockchain, it becomes a self-operating program. It will automatically execute once certain predefined conditions have been met.
Description: BTC will slow down coming days. Alts will catch up. $ETH looks to be bottomed. Perfect time for a cocaine fueled high leverage play. Timeframe: One week. Indicators used: Force my neighbour to smoke crack, then dress him up in a suit and make him pitch me pump targets. We basicly pick the funniest one and just run with it. Shout out to: None
Trustdice is one of the most popular gaming, dice, and casino platforms in the crypto world and offers a massive referral structure of up to 60 percent revenue share, which can quickly net effective affiliates thousands. Trustdice is one of the easiest affiliate platforms to recommend due to the lucrative commissions it offers and the fun, engaging games on the platform.
For comparison, Decenter reports that similar phrasing in ad campaigns that replace "ethereum" with "eos" such as "eos smart contract audits" are still available for use through Google Ads and being featured in campaigns. While it's unclear how broadly the ban has been applied to cryptocurrency, or whether it extends to any coins outside of Ethereum, Reddit users and Ethereum enthusiasts have begun an uproar over the selective censorship. The top comment by user u/ThePlague lambasts Google for promoting an agenda, stating that the company has been far from neutral in handling various forms of advertising on its platform, including cryptocurrency,
Interestingly, USD Coin (USDC), the world's second-largest stablecoin from Coinbase and Circle, was ranked at 1.00 by the Crypto Rating Council (CRC), whose members include Coinbase, Circle, Kraken, Bittrex, Genesis Capital, eToro, OKCoin, Radar, Anchorage, Cumberland, among others). The CRC supports and promotes regulatory clarity in the distributed ledger technology (DLT) space.
While both the Bitcoin and Ethereum networks are powered by the principle of distributed ledgers and cryptography, the two differ technically in many ways. For example, transactions on the Ethereum network may contain executable code, while data affixed to Bitcoin network transactions are generally only for keeping notes. Other differences include block time (an ether transaction is confirmed in seconds compared to minutes for bitcoin) and the algorithms that they run on (Ethereum uses ethash while Bitcoin uses SHA-256).

Hey English learners, I am Jack and this is my first English lesson at Let's Talk – your favourite youtube channel to improve your English speaking, Grammar and vocabulary for English conversations in real life. In this advanced English vocabulary lesson, I am bringing your 13 different ways to express anger, now anger could be little, mild and too much. So, based on the situation you could use the right English words. Practice these English words and give them a try in your spoken English. Practice them while speaking English with friends and folks to speak fluent English and increase your vocabulary as you learn new English words and practice them regularly, you would never have to ask the question, how to speak fluent English, you would have already mastered it.
Hi there, I'm Jack and welcome to today's Let's Talk lesson. I'm your new trainer, today is actually my first lesson and you know what? I was actually running late for it. I was stuck in traffic. Now being stuck in traffic got me thinking, man I'm angry and you know what? I thought that's the best lesson to start with. So today I'm going to talk to you about anger and all the different ways you can say how angry you are in different situations.
Now, how angry do you get? Have you got angry enough that you want to stick up your middle finger or have you gotten angry, that may be so angry that you just want to give someone a punch or a bash? No matter how angry you are it can be measured. You can be a little bit angry, mildly angry or really angry. It varies, so today we're going to look at different types of anger and what words you can use to express your anger at different levels. Behind me, we have a range of words. To begin with, what we're going to look at is annoyed. Now annoyed, it's mild anger. You get it if someone slightly distresses you or causes a bit of a mood change. It's more on the earliest stages of anger. Below annoyed, we have a list of words and we'll go through them each individually to show you how you can use these in everyday English.
The first word we have is irritated. Have you ever been at work and you're finished for the day, you're just about to go home and then all of a sudden your boss comes along, gives you a whole lot more work to do, need to be done right away? You'd be irritated; you'd be irritated you're there for so long.
Let's look at this next word, irked. It's a bit of an odd word. To be fair it's probably, you're a bit more angry if you're going to use the word irked. You might need to be a bit more careful as it's not that polite. An example of this would be, maybe if you heard that people were saying some not very nice things about you. Maybe some rumours were started. You'd say that person really irked me.
Alright, let's move on to the next one, bothered. It's pretty standard to be bothered. I get bothered all the time. I get bothered by the smallest things. An example of this would be, someone chewing really loud with their mouths open that bothers me.
What's next, shall we see? Miffed, miffed is a bit of an odd word. I guess the way you'd use this is, have you ever gone maybe to the office, the break, the lunchroom, gone into the fridge to grab your lunch to find that it's not there? Someone has taken it. You'd be so miffed.
We'll move on to our last one for the annoyed category, agitated. Now agitated, I think most people get agitated in everyday life. For instance, I said I was running late today in traffic. We were there, we were coming up to the traffic light and then someone zoomed in ahead and took my spot that really agitated me. I thought I was over it. I'd calm down and then I went to park outside and again someone shot in and stole my car park. Whoa! That really agitated me.
Alright, we've covered annoyed in different ways to say annoyed. Maybe let's look at a different category. Let's look at upset. Now upset, you can't feel angry it's still but mild but it's definitely different to annoyed. I mean you get upset if something bad happens. You don't know why but you get upset yeah. You're angry, you're upset and you know maybe look, a perfect example would be a family member dies. You're upset, it's an emotion. You're slightly angry, you don't know why.
Let's look at other ways to say upset, distressed. Right, what distresses me? Petrol prices, have you noticed that maybe sometimes things just go up and up? The prices just keep rising, it can be quite distressing. There's nothing you can do about it but you feel that anger, that distress.
We'll move on to the next one. Unhappy, hmm… whenever we've all been unhappy. I know I've been unhappy with a break-up, perfect example. It's an emotion, there's a bit of anger there with it. You're not sure why but I'll tell you what most people are always unhappy with breakups.
Alright, let's move away from maybe the lighter anger side and let's move to when you're really angry. Have you ever been so angry that you just don't, you just, you're hopping mad? You're unsure why. Well, I know stealing. Stealing really makes me mad. If you've ever been robbed, held up or even just you know someone's taken something of yours like your cell phone? That's when you're mad. You do need to be careful when you do use the word mad though because in English it can also be a mental condition and say someone's unstable. So just keep that in mind and don't use it all the time.
Lastly, we'll look at resentful. Resentful is a bit of an odd one because it is anger but you can feel it towards family. For instance, I may be resentful that my brother is a lot more successful than I am. It's just the way it goes.
Alright, thanks for sticking with me through part one of anger. Stick around for part two because I've got a lot more anger to show you and we'll cover up many other ways just to show your anger in English. Welcome back to part two of our lesson about anger. In part one, we looked at maybe the more mild to medium types of anger. We looked at if you recall annoyed, upset and mad. In part two we're going to look at the more in scale of anger, that really you know the built-up frustration, the blood boiling, the tempers flying. So behind me, we've got some words that you'd really be able to use to fulfil these in English.
The first one, furious. Now examples of furious would be let's see, have you ever maybe gone for a job, turned down, you didn't get it. Gone for another job turned down, no one's given you any feedback. You don't know why? You'd be pretty furious. You're trying to figure it out, you are furious. There are other ways to use words as furious and they'll give you a couple different contexts.
The next word we have is enraged. Imagine maybe you come out from a day's work, walk out go to get into your car, to find someone smashed your windscreen. Maybe they've taking keys and scraped it up and down, you'd be enraged. That's an anger that you just know.
Moving on to the next one, irate for Americans or irate for the British speakers. This anger, it can be very annoying. I mean it's definitely on the end scale think. Think about maybe have you ever been on a customer call, you're on there, maybe for forty minutes, you're waiting, you're on hold and then finally, that moment of truth. You think you've got someone on the line and then what? They've hung up on you oh, that would irate you. You'd be so irate.
Moving on to the next one, fuming. I'll tell you what? I'll reverse the roles here. I'll give you an example, maybe where I've made someone fume at me. Last week, I was out on a business call, visiting a client. Well, that's at least what I told the boss. I was out playing golf. If the boss found out he would be fuming.
All right, stick with me we've got one more, livid. Livid for me, is really right at the end of the scale. I'm using this word if I've got anger like no other. Imagine coming home from a hard day's work. Maybe you walk in the door, what do you find? Your girlfriend, she's cheating with your brother. Oh! You would be livid.
I tell you what, we've covered a wide range of words for anger and I hope that they help you with your everyday English. Please get out there, give it a go. Thank you for joining me for my first video. I hope I've shown you some great ways to express your anger in English. Stick with me and drop me a comment, subscribe, let me know how I've done. I hope to see you again soon, thank you.

Moldovan National, Igor Vortotinov Sentenced 41 Months for Faking his Death
United States Attorney Erica H. MacDonald today announced the sentencing of IGOR VOROTINOV, 55, to 41 months in prison for faking his death in order to collect a $2 million life insurance payment. VOROTINOV, who pleaded guilty on May 3, 2019, was sentenced today before Judge Patrick J. Schiltz in U.S. District Court in Minneapolis, Minnesota.
According to the defendant's guilty plea and documents filed in court, in March 2010, IGOR VOROTINOV obtained a $2 million life insurance policy on his own life from Mutual of Omaha Insurance Company (Mutual of Omaha), and designated his wife, IRINA VOROTINOV, as the primary beneficiary.
According to the defendant's guilty plea and documents filed in court, on October 1, 2011, the Moldovan police discovered the corpse of an adult male by the side of a road near the Moldovan village of Cojusna. Based upon the dead body and the defendant's identification documents in its clothing, the Moldovan police and a Moldovan morgue official purported to determine that Igor Vorotinov had died of a heart attack on October 1, 2011. After his purported death, VOROTINOV began using the name "Nikoly Patoka" and lived in Transnistria, a small Russian-controlled region of Moldova, from approximately 2012 until approximately November 2018.
On November 7, 2011, IRINA VOROTINOV submitted a claim for death benefits against the Mutual of Omaha life insurance policy, claiming that VOROTINOV had died in the Republic of Moldova on October 1, 2011. VOROTINOV was aware of his former wife's filing of the fraudulent death claim, and therefore continued living and doing business as "Nikoly Patoka." On March 23, 2012, Mutual of Omaha mailed a check payable to IRINA VOROTINOV in the amount of $2,048,414.09 to her home in Maple Grove, Minnesota.
According to documents filed in court, IRINA recruited a third party to open an account at a local branch of U.S. Bank and to deposit the insurance check into the account. She then caused the third party to transfer $1.5 million to another account at U.S. Bank in the name of her son, ALKON VOROTINOV. Between March 29, 2012 and January 2015, more than $1.5 million of the life insurance proceeds were transferred to accounts located in Switzerland and Moldova.
According to documents filed in court, on November 27, 2013, ALKON VOROTINOV was stopped by Customs and Border Protection (CBP) in Detroit, Michigan upon returning from a trip to Moldova. A computer seized by CBP agents contained digital photographs of IGOR VOROTINOV taken on April 19, 2013 and on May 12, 2013, in which IGOR is alive.
This case is the result of an investigation conducted by the Federal Bureau of Investigation and the Internal Revenue Service – Criminal Investigation Division. The Justice Department's Office of International Affairs handled the extradition in this matter.
Assistant U.S. Attorneys David J. MacLaughlin and Matthew Ebert prosecuted the case.

HOPKINS, Lisa (2013). Point, counterpoint, needlepoint: the tapestry in Margaret Cavendish's The Unnatural Tragedy. Women's Writing, 20 (4), 555-566.
This essay explores the mention of a set of wall-hangings showing the story of Abraham, Sarah and Hagar in Margaret Cavendish's play The Unnatural Tragedy. It relates this to the prominence of actual tapestries and other hangings in the Cavendish family houses, following a tradition established by Bess of Hardwick. Cavendish herself had no interest in needlework, and tapestries in particular might have been a difficult topic for her because she associates them with pregnancy and childhood, matters on which she was sensitive because she was childless and aware that Newcastle had married her partly because he desired more sons. In The Unnatural Tragedy, however, these associations are put to good use by providing thematic echoes of both the play's main plot and subplot and also of Cavendish's own situation. Probably alluding to a set of tapestries in the royal collection, the Hagar panel speaks of the continuity of the royal line and by implication tropes dynastic continuity more generally, and thus forms an interface between the private space of the house and the public space of the world outside, underlining the extent to which this is a play with a public resonance as well as a purely private one.

2023 Backyard Trends to Look For
We know it's only January, but it's time to start planning your 2023 backyard dreams. We're looking at the top trends for backyards and landscaping that will be hot this summer. What trends are you looking to do in 2023?
Renovate What You've Got Less homeowners will be moving in 2023 to find a bigger or better yard and instead working with what they've got. Look at homeowners to use smaller or unconventional spaces to customize their backyards. A focus on renovating your current space and making it the yard of your dreams will be what homeowners look to achieve.
A Calm Space With a bigger focus on mental health since the pandemic, people are choosing to make their backyards a space of serenity. Spending more time in your outdoor space gardening, refreshing, or just creating are proven stress relievers. Watch for homeowners to make their backyards their Zen space in 2023.
A Pop of Color Homeowners will push the envelope when it comes to colors and patterns in 2023. While the last couple of years have focused on creating the space, this year will be focused on making the space yours. You won't be seeing just bright and bold colors in blankets, pillows and furniture. Tile, stucco and paint colors will also be brighter and bolder as we move into a new year.
Bring Inside Out This was a major trend we saw in 2022 and we don't expect it to quit. Making your outdoor space a livable area with pizza ovens, water features and fire pits are going to be a major trend continuation from last year. Homeowners want to extend their living areas and making the outdoors feel like a living room is going to continue being popular. Homeowners may opt to bring their indoor furniture outdoors for a cozier space.
Cottage Gardens Nostalgic plants will be making a comeback in 2023 as homeowners look to achieve the perfect cottage garden. Hollyhock, hydrangeas, lilacs and roses will be popular choices among gardeners this year. You could also see the comeback of white picket fences, brick pathways and birdbaths.
Plant Privacy We saw fences and pergolas make a giant comeback in 2021 and 2022 but watch for homeowners to choose a greener option to keep their backyards private in 2023. Vertical gardens will explode this year with planter boxes, hanging baskets, mounted containers and more fun options. Natural looking partitions will help to enhance a space and continue giving homeowners the privacy they desire.
