How hard could this game really be?
It is likely that most people that looked at the title of this game were utterly confused. I can definitely understand this, so let me explain. Prinnys are penguin-esque creatures that embody the souls of humans that have done evil in their past life. As a punishment for their misdeeds they have been sewn into bird skins and are forced to do the bidding of their underworld leader Etna. If you are familiar with the Disgaea series, you will know that Prinnys are always getting the short end of the stick. Etna never ceases to abuse and punish them with whatever she feels like dishing out for that day. In this game, Prinnys no longer have a tiny role but get center stage instead.
In fact, you yourself will be playing the game as a Prinny. There is nothing glorious about it. No red carpet. No spotlight. No legend behind your name. You are the star of the game but not because you want to be. You are forced into it. Someone has stolen Etna's dessert. Witnesses say it was a Prinny shaped figure but no one is certain. Etna wants compensation for her loss and since she cannot find the culprit, it is up to all of the Prinnys to find something better for her to indulge herself on.
So, you're Etna's little messenger and if it wasn't bad enough to have to do her work, you are basically slapped around by every other monster in the game as well. You travel from level to level just trying to make it to the next checkpoint. At the end of each, there is a boss with an ingredient which will all be combined to form the Ultra Dessert, your ultimate goal.
Before I continue, I think it is best to address everyone's concern right off the bat: this is a tough game. I am sure many of you will have read articles about the game or have heard reports from friends of how difficult Prinny is. They weren't joking. Yet the game is not impossible and much of the difficulty comes from its steep learning curve. Besides the learning curve, Prinny can severely test your patience. The game throws so many things at you all at once that the only way to succeed is for you to fail and then learn from your mistakes. Inch by inch, you progress. But that is where the game truly shines.
Did I mention that you have a limited amount of lives in this game? Your job is to control the Prinnys as they recklessly bum rush into each mission, needlessly dying in the process. There are 1000 of you, so that is the number of lives that you have to complete the game. Each time one Prinny goes down, another is reluctantly volunteered to take its place. This unique twist to good old Lemmings is challenging, but also one of the drawbacks. You will have to try some parts of the game multiple times while listening to the same music and voice work of the Prinnys saying their catch phrase "dood!". It kind of wears on you after a couple hundred times.
There are levels. They are difficult, but thankfully they are not too drawn out and they are limited in number. Their main purpose is to give you a break from the intense and exhausting boss battles. The bosses are the meat of the game and you should be prepared to expend most lives on defeating them. I absolutely loved the bosses but for other reasons than one might expect. Much like the boss battles of old-school games such as Mega Man and Castlevania, winning the battle is about learning the boss' patterns while trying to dodge its attacks. Slowly figuring out how to defeat the boss and using your reflexes to react to whatever situation occurs is the way to success. The adrenaline surges through your veins at maximum speed when both you and your enemy are low on health, especially when one blow would kill either you or him.
The final boss is masterfully created. Even while the game's ending is forgettable, the encounter just before was the crowning achievement of the game. It may take you several hours to finally see the boss' pattern and know how to properly exploit it, but it will be worth every moment of frustration leading up to the final defeat.
Before starting to play Prinny, I was already aware of its difficulty. I knew about the jump mechanic and the one thousand lives limit for finishing the game. I started the game regardless. I love challenges and I love overcoming them even more. Each time I succeeded, it was only adding fuel to the fire, until my ego had grown uncontrollably to a point where the only next step was to conquer the game.
I finished the game in one sitting, needing nine hours and forty one minutes before the credits rolled. To me this speaks worlds of the actual gameplay and it shows that the game is not nearly as impossible as some have made it out to be. With my fingers cramping, I can wholeheartedly recommend this game to anyone with the determination to finish what they started. Time to have some fun dood!

"The Fearless Flores" perform daily shows at the Gwinnett County Fair. Their main attraction is the "cage of death" as they call it. They get on motorcycles and ride around doing loops. It is a pretty small sphere so it actually is impressive that they haven't hurt themselves doing it.

Research. The research at our group focuses on the development and testing of wearable assistive exoskeletons. Driven by the desire to help exoskeletons succeed in real-life applications, I am interested in studying how the human body performs certain tasks and in using this knowledge to design the best possible exoskeletons. My doctoral research contributed to the Robo-Mate EU project in the development of a back-support exoskeleton to protect factory workers from lumbar spine injuries. The focus was on two aspects: modulating the device in real time to provide meaningful physical assistance, and exploiting elastic elements to minimize the need for active actuation.
An ongoing national project has allowed our group to expand and to further research the design of previous and new exoskeletons, extending the focus from lumbar spine to other human joints. As part of this endeavor, I strive to make exoskeletons impactful in real-life. From my perspective, this includes understanding how the way they are built and controlled affects the resulting physical effectiveness and ergonomics for the users.
Bio. I was born and grew up in Sardinia (Italy). There, I enrolled at the University of Cagliari and obtained a BSc in Biomedical Engineering in 2011. Driven by the possibility to work on wearable robots, I moved to Zurich (Switzerland) and earned a MSc in Robotics from the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology (ETH), taking part in research projects in the field of rehabilitation robotics. In September 2014 I joined Advanced Robotics at the Italian Institute of Technology (IIT) as a PhD candidate and Early Stage Researcher in the SMART-E ITN. I defended my PhD thesis in February 2018. Since then, I have been working as a postdoctoral researcher in the same group.

Riverdale 2×01 – A Kiss Before Dying | Review
It is always the narrator of the Jughead to bring us back to Riverdale for this long-awaited second season after the series, benefitting from a step on Netflix, has seen the increase in popularity of the public and the critics.
We were left with the incredible and unexpected cliffhanger of the first season: a robbery gone wrong at Pop's Diner, and Fred Andrews in the arms of Archie struck by a pistol shot to the abdomen.
So, here we are living the desperate race to Archie to the hospital and subsequent hours of the tribulation, waiting to see if Fred – remember that it is played by Luke Perry or Dylan of Beverly Hills 90210 – will be saved.
Fear not, there has been no change in the direction of the series nor much less of the drama has taken over that murder-mystery, in fact, while Archie lives on more than one occasion, and from different angles, the moments of the robbery at the diner creeps more and more doubt that more than a robbery ended in tragedy, the episode was a real attempt of murder. The cash register of the Pop's in fact not been emptied but the villain has just taken the wallet of the father of Archie.
Who will you be the principal? The band with the Southside Serpents, deprived of their leader – the father of Jughead entangled in the murder of Jason Blossom – with a grudge against Mr. Andrews or Hiram Lodge, father of Veronica – that wants to resume its business after that Fred had a refusal, the offer to sell his share in the business to transform the Southside in a residential area?
But the attempted murder of Fred Andrews is only the flywheel of an episode, serving to the viewers to be reunited with the protagonist of the show. While a quick exchange of phone calls warns Betty, Jughead and Veronica what happened to Archie and his father, the 4 find themselves in the hospital – with a nice sequence where the guys popping up from various side corridors and then riabbracciarsi – known as the rock-solid interactions between the characters that transcends the simple love story which remains one of the great strengths of the series.
The chemistry between Jughead and Betty is indisputable with the young Jug, sure I can resist the allure of the dark side, but being soon involved, willingly or unwillingly, in the affairs of the Southside Serpents while Veronica's struggle to finally breach into the heart of Archie and get away from the reputation of his family, while Archie, the good guy always ready to do the right thing, is overwhelmed by events and on the verge of losing psychologically.
Your Archie is the first character on which the authors put the emphasis to close the episode, Archie is watching the father armed with a baseball bat, fearful that the mysterious villain would return to visit his father.
There is a parallelism between the status-quo of the characters – be immediately put to the test psychologically – and the mood with which he closed the previous season, and on which the series wants to based in a kind of critical and social reflection: Riverdale is the photography of the american province, once a guardian of values and a life that is simple and safe and time invested by acts of violence, seemingly random, and by the intrigues and power games.
Finally it returns the unique visual style of the series with the neon lights and saturated colours, with the dream sequences, rough, and disturbing, and with the atmosphere, somewhere between the ethereal and the suspended in time that give Riverdale a particular taste and certainly unusual.
As already done for the first season, Riverdale, moves at a fast pace throwing you already have the basics for plots and subplots in the new series compared to other shows, there is no time for unnecessary fillers and drug artifacts.
Kiss Before Dying is a premiere rock-solid friendship that culminates with a double "cliffhanger": the return of Hiram Lodge, in the flesh, after being the "villain" in the dark the first season, and the return of the robber, masked that will be another victim, but at Greendale, the twin city of Riverdale, that Ms. Grundy – the young professor with whom Archie had a murky relationship at the beginning of the first season. It would be easy to think then that the mysterious hooded man is the ex-abusive husband of a teacher in search of revenge... welcome back to Riverdale, where nothing is as it seems!
Kiss Before Dying has posted the best ratings for the series up to this point, registering a peak share of about 2.3 million viewers.
During the nerve-racking wait in the waiting room of the hospital Jughead consoles Archie by telling him that for all the people that saved during the last year may very well be a superhero: Pureheart the Powerful. The reference is to the Life With Archie #42 (1965), in which Archie called the PH Factor (the Pure Heart Factor) becoming a superhero-in fact; the story gave way to a trend that was ridden by the comics Archie for all the rebirth and prosthetics of the '60s fading slowly but surely and looking at the classic stories.

Christina Geraci is a founding shareholder in charge of operations at Geraci LLP. A seasoned Trail Attorney, she focused her practice on litigation matters in the representation of lenders, real estate investment firms, hedge funds, individual investors, traditional lending institutions and banks. She has successfully tried, settled and arbitrated cases in California in matters involving foreclosure defense, partnership disputes, shareholder derivative suits, policyholder/title insurer suits, inter-bank litigation in equitable subrogation, and lender/borrower disputes, including but not limited to, violations of TILA, HOEPA, and statutory broker liability.
Today her main focus is growing the firm and implementing the strategies necessary for the company to succeed. Her core job is making sure her team has everything they need to do their job. Working closely with the leadership team at the firm, she has a hands-on approach and is active in the day to day operations at the firm. She is continually striving to streamline the internal and external core processes and finding innovative ways to deliver results to her team and clients.

Favorite Vacation
Dance Hall Crashers, Bad Religion, Madness, Thrill Kill Kult, Love & Rockets, The Cure, Siouxsie and the Banshees, Bauhaus, TSOL, 7 Seconds, Operation Ivy, Rancid, NIN, Bigod 20, Front 242, Offspring and many more ska punk, gothic and industrial bands you probably have never heard of.

What was it about the legal field that drew your interest?
My original reasons for entering the legal field stem from my passion for International Politics. Unfortunately, my father contracted cancer while working with chemical weapons (specifically Agent Orange) during the Vietnam War; he was in the United States Marine Corp. From a young age I was attracted to the fight for justice and human rights. During undergrad, I was positive I wanted to prosecute war crimes in the International Court of Justice. After law school or possibly during my first-year summer internship at a criminal firm, I realized I much preferred civil litigation over criminal law.
Singing, painting, cooking, swimming, and reading
What are you most proud of at Geraci?
We are a very unique firm and offer a different approach to the practice of law in that we believe that our job is to provide our client with traditional and non-traditional solutions. We banished the old law firm mentality of prolonged indirect client communication. Instead we are dedicated to constant communication with our clients via email, text, and chat platforms.
What banking law or regulation would you like to see changed?
Where do I start? The myriad of banking laws and regulations make it almost impossible to practice in the field without a specialization. The Consumer Protection laws, while originally created to protect the consumer, only now serve to harm them. Many non-traditional lenders and loan servicers will not make consumer loans or service them due to the consumer protection laws such as the California Home Owner's Bill of Rights. This severely limits the consumer's ability to obtain financing for real estate; thus, it only serves to help eliminate the American Dream of homeownership. The high penalties non-traditional lenders and loan services face for even the most mundane mistake is just too high to risk for them.
What wisdom could you offer aspiring attorneys?
Get into the best law school you can and start to market 'you' from day one. Stay honest. Never sacrifice your integrity for anyone, any job, or any cause. Always keep your word. If you make a promise, make sure you follow through with it. Your reputation inside and outside the legal profession is gold; do not tarnish it.
Who has had the most impact on your career?
My children. Without them I would not work as hard or as many hours that I do to ensure their future.
Who is or was the most influential person in your life?
My mother. She sacrificed so much for so many years to support me and my sister on her own. She was a tough single mother who taught me I could do anything and be anything I wanted. She also taught me not to let anything or anyone hold me back. She said, "Believe in your dreams and they will become your reality."
What is your proudest achievement?
Geraci Law Firm and my precious children. Together they encompass who I am, and I am very proud of them and what they stand for.
What's it like working at Geraci?
Crazy! We do not call this the "Un-Firm" for nothing. We are a special bunch and work well together. We laugh together, hang out together, and sometimes fight it out together. We are really like a family. We may argue, but we can always depend on each other.
What was it that drew you to open Geraci Law Firm?
I always wanted to work for myself, but I knew I wanted a firm and did not want a solo practice. I felt I could do things different from other traditional firms and make the practice of law fun, enjoyable, and profitable at the same time. Anthony and I have started a unique firm and we have seen it grow from our initial vision into what is today; a multi-faceted full-service real estate firm run by passionate, progressive, intelligent people who think outside the box.
What can we learn from the past in our business?
Over regulation and dishonesty kill an economy. Keep our clients honest and prudent and we will always have plenty of business.

Supporting Napa County Fire Relief Efforts
Aidy Smith
In response to several major Napa County fires that started burning the night of October 8th and have displaced thousands of area residents thus far, Napa Valley Community Foundation (NVCF) has mobilized its Disaster Relief Fund.
The Fund was established in response to the South Napa Earthquake of 2014 with a $10 million lead gift from Napa Valley Vintners, and ultimately helped provide services to more than 12,000 earthquake victims, and cash aid to 1,400 of those hardest-hit by the last declared disaster in the region.
Tax-deductible contributions to the Fund are welcome in any amount. Please click here to make a gift. For Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) about donating to the Napa Valley Community Disaster Relief Fund, please click here.
In the days ahead, NVCF will be convening decision-makers from the nonprofit sector and local government to assess urgent needs, identify short term gaps and gather information that will inform longer-term recovery efforts. NVCF will do this work in collaboration with Napa Valley Community Organizations Active in Disaster (aka, the Napa Valley COAD), a grouping of community service organizations brought together by the Foundation to improve coordination and communication among nonprofits — and between local government agencies, the charitable sector, faith communities and the private sector — following a disaster.
The Foundation will also distribute immediate response grants to a targeted list of local nonprofits that were pre-approved to receive such grants following the 2014 earthquake. All of these nonprofits received intensive technical assistance from NVCF to boost their capacity to respond to events such as the fires now underway in Napa County.
The Governor declared a state of emergency for the fires in Napa County on October 9.

There are many mediocre spy thrillers out there. Steven Spielberg's "Bridge of Spies" is not one of them.
Set during the Cold War, "Bridge of Spies" offers a unique perspective on espionage — that of a lawyer defending an enemy agent. Tom Hanks plays James Donovan, an insurance lawyer called to defend a suspected Soviet spy.
At first, Donovan is skeptical because of the social repercussions this might have, but eventually accepts, and though he loses the case, he manages to commute the sentence.
However, later when an American agent is caught by the Soviet Union, the CIA calls upon Donovan to negotiate the exchange as a citizen, and not a representative of the American government. He flies out to Berlin, but finds himself wrapped up in another web as he tries to make an exchange for a second American prisoner.
I was not expecting an action movie, nor did I get one. Despite this, "Bridge of Spies" was satisfying because it offered a rather neutral outlook. There were many humorous moments, all timed correctly, and the suspense and tension were intense. While a majority of the movie is about legal matters, the dialogue is easy to understand.
The actors portrayed their characters well. Tom Hanks highlighted the main character's stubbornness and at the same time his strong conscience, while Mark Rylance as Rudolf Abel, the Soviet spy brought his tight-lipped stoicism and dry witty humor to the big screen. These two characters — Donovan especially — were fleshed out much more than the rest, but the acting was still spot on.
Overall, "Bridge of Spies" was a well-executed movie, one that really showed the morality, strength and courage required during the spy exchange.

Principal component analysis (PCA) is a statistical procedure that uses an orthogonal transformation to convert a set of observations of possibly correlated variables into a set of values of linearly uncorrelated variables called principal components. The number of principal components is less than or equal to the number of original variables. This transformation is defined in such a way that the first principal component has the largest possible variance (that is, accounts for as much of the variability in the data as possible), and each succeeding component in turn has the highest variance possible under the constraint that it is orthogonal to (i.e., uncorrelated with) the preceding components. The principal components are orthogonal because they are the eigenvectors of the covariance matrix, which is symmetric. PCA is sensitive to the relative scaling of the original variables.

Woman Accused Of Raping Friend With 'Dildo' Acquitted And Discharged By Court
The Accra Circuit, Court has acquitted and discharged the woman who was standing trial for allegedly inserting dildo into the vagina of another woman.
The accused person, Queenie Akuffo, was acquitted and discharged on Wednesday morning after the court, presided over by Mrs Abena Oppong Adjin-Doku, ruled that the alleged victim consented to the act.
According to the court, a video documenting the alleged act revealed that the alleged victim was in full support of the act
The judge held that the video showed that when Queenie inserted the dildo into the victim's vagina, she (victim ) was fully aware and did not protest.
In the said video, the judge held that the victim was seen urging the accused person to perform the act.
The victim, Janet Amankwa, told the court that she was intoxicated and, therefore, she did not know what happened to her.
But the judge held that in her evidence, it was revealed that during interaction with a doctor, she stated that the accused person inserted the dildo into her vagina.
"If she was intoxicated and did not know what happened, how could she tell the doctor what happened to her", the judge said.

PHIL KLINE – UNSILENT NIGHT
The streets of New York, a cold winter night, and a whole lot of boomboxes playing pre-recorded tapes of a million swirly tinkles. This is either the corniest minimalism or the wryest new age you'll ever hear.
(God bless Jerwin for remembering my wish list.)
BASEMENT JAXX – "Where's Your Head At"
Fun, he says. This is a "fun" song. I'm guessing Mr. Ewing doesn't watch much of the music television, because if he (like I) were exposed to this song via the images of rabid monkeys with human faces chasing after an unsuspecting A&R guy in some sterile hospital Lars Von Trier probably uses for his films, then he might reconsider the "fun" of this song. Even when I push some buttons and "listen" (in my head) to the song away from those freakish images, it doesn't sound "fun" at all – the beat's menacing, the voice is hectoring ("we can't go on, go on without YOU!"), and those shrill electronic whoops & trills sounding off like air raid sirens (or something like – rockist alert! – the introduction to Pere Ubu's "Non-Alignment Pact"). That could be "fun", given one's mood (says the boy that gets his jollies – rockist alert redux! – screaming along to Shellac), but if I'm looking to turn a party frown upside down, this is not the track I'll be spinning.
Pub Etiquette: Playing Catch-Up
Tom • Pumpkin Publog • Post a comment • 233 views
Pub Etiquette: Playing Catch-Up. This practise – ordering multiple or very strong drinks in an attempt to catch up to your co-drinkers in inebriation terms – is bad form. It makes you look vulgar at best, a medical case at worst. That said I do find it neccessary on occasion to kick off my drinking with two pints rather than the more common one. For instance, the editor of this publog is a slower drinker than I. I drink at approximately 1.2 times his rate of consumption p on the first pint. His rate of consumption also reduces for each additional pint. So if I arrive in the pub at 8 on a Friday after a hard journey on the Oxford Tube, and he has been down the boozer since 5.30, he will not only be drunker than I and prone to rant about Tarkus, but my rate of consumption will be approaching 2p and thus to correct the imbalance a second pint may be required during the initial purchase. (Needless to say you should only even consider buying multiple drinks if it is your round.)
But even if you think it's necessary it's still bad form. And on some occasions your concept of "necessary" may stretch the boundaries of good behaviour to their limits. On a recent visit to London's trendy Bierodrome the Coolest Man of the Third Millennium found himself at a disadvantage. We had been sitting in the Cittie Of Yorke all afternoon and were so incapacitated we were singing "Do They Know It's Christmas?" all down the Kingsway, vying with one another for the honour of doing "the Bono bit". In the circs we would have surely been churlish to take issue with a double-drink purchase, given that CM3M had been working behind a counter during that same time.
However CM3M judged that two drinks were not enough, and ordered two (2) pints of John Smiths and two (2) Bailey's. On the last round of the evening. This meant that he was a) drinking four drinks to our one, and b) paying through the nose being as Bierodrome is not cheap. Also the thought of a cocktail of John Smiths and Bailey's is enough to make the sternest stomach turn. Afterwards he announced that he would not be coming back to Bierodrome as it was too expensive. The result was that he sacrificed the moral high ground over us – given how hammered we were this is some feat – and on future pub visits the conversation made reference not to our disgraceful crooning antics but to his ambulance-chasing drink-lust. Readers – don't let this happen to you!
A good range of Grman & Blgian beers
A good range of Grman & Blgian beers I said below – and I'm not repeating it here merely for the deliberate and funky spelling. Things like this make me like a pub, despite the fact that I rarely actually drink them. I suppose it is attention to detail I'm looking for – and also an opportunity to annoy my mates by occasionally ordering a bottle of Kriek. Cherry beer = alcoholic cherryade = the original alcopop.
Mochi Manifesto
Mochi Manifesto: another one for the sidebar (eventually) – music blog by Honda of ILM regularity, with a semi-focus on electronic sounds. Which is always good to see, especially since we neglect them cos the joke potential is low. Meanwhile you might also look at The Church Of Me, Marcello Carlin's weblog which is already in the sidebar. And while we're at it I was very happy to see that Jejune is still going. It's not about music but back when I was part of the 'weblog community' it was one of my favourite sites. There's no reason why it should have stopped of course other than my solipsistic feeling that everything on the Interweb slows down when I'm not paying attention to it. Speaking of which it's time for a shake-up of the so-called 'favourite sites' on your right given that half of them never update and are therefore staffed by cockfarmers.

2002 is the year of the
2002 is the year of the…..flute. Well okay, a pretty poor observation and one which will almost certainly not be borne out by – say – March even. However I cannot help but notice that two big tracks for January prominently feature a bit of flute action. S Club 7 get the flautist in for You – which is a sure fire number one hit despite being not quite as good as the very similar Reach (that said it is very short, and I would imagine it will easily be the shortest number one of the last two years when it makes it to the top). Secondly Dre uses a lovely, lilting and breathy flute loop on 'Bad Intentions' which luckily helps distract from another lame-o Dre rap and an even more embarrassing effort from Knoc-turn' Al. That has also got to be one of the worst rap names ever, I would love to hear the origin. Young Alistair played too much Postman Knock as a child – but I digress.
So perhaps by late March we will see the new flute heavy Craig David album and a Nas version of Annie's Theme.

Honda E drag racer and Honda N-One hill climber previewed for Tokyo Auto Salon
January 11, 2021, 3:18 p.m. ·2 min read
Honda has teased a couple of unusual race cars ahead of the 2021 Tokyo Auto Salon. Honda says it wanted to build competition machines with a "funny" theme. The idea can be explained as "silly ideas taken seriously," but something might be lost in the translation on Honda's website, which reassures us, "It's okay to be stupid. Why not try it for real?"
With that mission statement in place, Honda's first work is the e-Drag, a Honda e repurposed for drag racing. "Electric vehicles aren't just for being green and clean!" the site states. An accompanying illustration shows the Honda e with its two front wheels in the air, paired with rather large tires on the rear wheels. Presumably, a more powerful motor (possibly multiple motors?) than its stock 152-horsepower unit will have to be swapped in, along with stiffer suspension components.
According to a rendering, many of its body panels, including the roof and doors, will be constructed of carbon fiber. The hood, grille, front bumper and front fenders become a single-piece carbon fiber nosecone. Apparently, Honda intends to harness the power of an electric motor's instant torque to turn its city car into, perhaps, a literal funny car.
Next up is the K-Climb, a Honda N-One RS hill climb racer. The second generation of the retro kei car inspired by the 1967 Honda N360 was launched with a manual transmission in November, bolstering its enthusiast bona-fides. This one is less of a stretch, as Honda has been sponsoring a spec racing series featuring lightly modified N-Ones for several years.
The modifications are less extensive than the e-Drag's. A carbon-fiber hood and fender flares at each wheel help reduce weight while allowing for wider wheels. It's unknown whether there will be more upgrades under the hood.
Honda plans to actually enter these cars in racing events in March, so these aren't just flights of fancy. It's even letting fans vote on the color of the livery when they make their competition debuts.
It's refreshing to see a carmaker have a bit of fun with car show builds. In addition to the overlanding Fit and Airstream-inspired N-Box food truck, Honda's presentation should be one of the more interesting ones at the virtual Tokyo Auto Salon when it kicks off Jan. 15.

How the Joe Biden presidency could impact your money
Maya Angelou Barbie doll launched in US
SHAREHOLDER ALERT: Levi & Korsinsky, LLP Notifies Shareholders of Qiwi plc of a Class Action Lawsuit and a Lead Plaintiff Deadline of February 9, 2021 - QIWI
As you take a closer look at your financial footing amid the headwinds of a pandemic, it's an excellent time to examine the possible impact of a Joe Biden presidency on money matters. The balance of Congress has shifted following the Georgia runoffs, providing possible momentum for President Biden's agenda. A new COVID check, taxes, health care — it's all on the line. Here's how. A SHORT FUSE ON ANOTHER ROUND OF STIMULUS CHECKS Look for another round of pandemic relief shortly after Biden's inauguration, says Bernard Yaros Jr., an economist with Moody's Analytics. "In February, we expect that there's going to be a COVID-specific relief package," Yaros says. That measure will likely once again extend unemployment insurance benefits, with enough support for another round of checks issued to Americans, "whether it's 2K or slightly lower," he says. Small businesses are likely to receive more grants and forgivable loans, as well. "And we're also thinking, you would probably get some additional funding for rental assistance," Yaros adds. MOVING FROM RELIEF TO STIMULUS With Democrats gaining two seats in the Senate from the Georgia runoffs, there is now a greater possibility of moving from "relief" to "stimulus" mode in late 2021. "That's because now that the Democrats have a simple majority in the Senate. They can pass changes to the tax code as well as implement changes in spending," Yaros says. Moody's Analytics economists expect the Biden administration will dedicate increased funding for enhancements to "social safety nets," possibly including: — Expanding eligibility for Medicare. — Retooling Obamacare into Bidencare. — Rolling out paid sick leave protections. — Offering universal pre-K for 3- and 4-year-olds. — Providing some kind of student debt forgiveness. But on these initiatives, Democrats will "have to pick and choose," Yaros says. "Among the more moderate Democrats, they're not going to want to increase the deficit too much. That's obviously going to be a limiting factor," he adds. And while Vice-President Kamala Harris holds the deciding vote in the event of a Senate tie, the 50-50 split between Democrats and Republicans doesn't constitute filibuster-proof power. REVERSING TRUMP TAX CUTS Higher taxes are expected to partially fund the widening of these social safety nets. Yaros says Biden is likely to succeed in reversing Trump's tax cuts, raising the corporate income tax rate to 28%, increasing the tax rate for taxable incomes of more than $400,000 and eliminating some tax breaks for those making more than $1 million. But the tax hikes may be smaller than widely anticipated, says Michael Zezas, head of U.S. public policy research at Morgan Stanley. "In a Senate where Democrats have the slimmest majority possible, any one Democratic senator effectively has a veto. And when it comes to taxes, we expect many of the Biden administration's proposed taxes won't pass muster with Democratic moderates," Zezas says in an analysis. "We estimate about $500 billion of tax increases are possible, obviously a smaller number than another potential COVID stimulus round, and also smaller than the $1 trillion-plus spending now in play for each of health care and infrastructure," Zezas added. Even if Biden can swing the tax hikes, they aren't expected to kick in until 2024, Yaros says, "to make sure that there's no fiscal drag, at all, on the economy in these next couple of years when we're still digging ourselves out of the pandemic." REVISING RETIREMENT PLANS Joe Biden also has some ideas to reshape employer-sponsored retirement plans. One of those proposals is to equalize the tax benefit of contributing to a retirement plan so that "higher-income earners aren't getting more of the benefit than the lower-income workers, that it's standard across the board," says Anne Tyler Hall, founder and principal of Hall Benefits Law. For example, someone in a 37% tax bracket is able to deduct the full amount of a retirement plan contribution; so $37 for every $100 pre-tax contribution. That's a greater tax benefit than someone in a lower tax bracket, such as 20%, who would receive a $20 deduction for each $100 pre-tax contribution. The idea proposed by the Biden administration is to offer a tax credit to low- and moderate-income workers, resulting in an equal tax benefit. Democrats are also pushing for employers to make retirement saving easier for the U.S. workforce. "Employers who don't offer retirement plans would be required to allow employees to make contributions to individual retirement accounts, IRAs," Hall says. "Contributions to the IRAs would come directly from paychecks." With the shift of balance in Congress, Hall says such changes may be more likely. Plus, "some of these provisions have bipartisan support," she adds.

"Of course, anyone who's seen Hobgoblins will be excited to know that Hobgoblins 2 is coming out later this month! Sure, a twenty year gap between films didn't help Blues Brothers any, but this is Hobgoblins we're talking about."

"I found him to be a pretty cool guy. A very busy guy, but he was more than willing to go along with my inane questions when he had the time. So without further ado, join us for some light conversation about horror movies, jerks with movie cameras, and why that little star-watch section in People you like so much is bad juujuu all around!"
"But for the most part, he's gotten a bad rap. Sure, his books are pervy to the extreme (not that I'm complaining), but his characters are remarkably easy to spend time with, so if you can keep your sensibilities from being offended too much in the first few chapters of any given Xanth story, it's worth it in the end."
"I know, his name may not ring too many bells, but he and his film company Dark Maze Studios have been making quite a name for themselves recently, as anyone who's seen the infamous Press Start can tell you. And they'll be in for quite the profile boost when they become the official American distributors for the next great film from the makers of Dünyayi Kurtaran Adam: Turkish Rambo!"
"In 2001, Andy Weir was just another well-meaning author with a story that people didn't seem to want to hear. But by August 25th, 2008, people were hanging on his every word, as his webcomic Casey and Andy came to its long-fermenting conclusion."


A lot of the people who are involved in agriculture and who write blogs will probably recognize the social media hero I want to highlight this week. It's Judi Graff aka @FARMnWIFE. There are a lot of reasons she is a social media hero to various people, but I get to make the list so we'll focus on my reasons.
Following this blog, you will learn all about grain farming and raising cattle in the mid-west. I will be writing about the good and the bad aspects of farm life. Being dependent on weather and commodity markets for a living is not for the faint of heart by any means. It is not a glamorous life but it is never boring. (Well, driving a combine back and forth for 12 hours a day for two months can get a little tedious.) I would love it if you would join me. It should prove interesting.
Her husband Bill has his own blog, where he posts podcasts on Farm and Ranch Country.
They have a farm website for Graff Land & Livestock.
But I haven't even mentioned the reason I thought of Judi so soon after starting this series on social media heroes…. The biggest reason by far is she is helping other people be better at social media EVERY SINGLE DAY. See, in addition to all the farming, all the telling of their farm's story, Judi also has a blog (FARMnWIFE.com) devoted to highlighting ways to improve blogs, written in a way that is totally geared to farmers and others in the ag community!
And in case that's not enough giving back to the online farm community, she decided to up it even more for the month of January doing a special program based on the book 31 Days To Build a Better Blog by Darren Rowse of ProBlogger. She wrote a post in early December explaining how it would work and that a small group dedicated to building better ag blogs would help each other improve during January. I signed up hoping that my travel and work schedule would allow me to participate…. well people, the enthusiasm level was infectious! HOW COULD I NOT FIND TIME? I just had to do it! Now I will openly tell you that by participating in #BlogChat for a long time, a lot of the info was familiar or things I had even accomplished, but I have been doing a lot of adds and updates. Some in the group are brand-new to blogging and others are like me, have been doing it a while — all of us are enjoying the small group dynamic and the trusted feedback (both constructive coaching and the positive feedback!).
I emailed you, Ms. SlowMoneyFarm. We have another group in March.
Great! Jan is a great agvocate and we need these going on routinely cause so many can benefit. I feel a little guilty for taking a slot but have gotten so much that I wouldn't give up my seat for anything!
You're going to make me cry. This is so amazingly nice of you. Everyone should write a post promoting someone else. You'll have a friend for life.
My pleasure Judi, although I don't want any tears just smiles hopefully! This series is so much fun for me to write… I just hope others enjoy it half as much as me!
Nice post. Judi certainly deserves praise! Thanks to Judi for organizing the 31 Days Better Blog group. It has been a great learning experience. It is generous of Judi to share her time and knowledge with fellow ag bloggers! Not to mention how meaningful her advocacy is to the ag industry.
Great post Janice, Judi certainly is an inspiration with her tireless efforts and agvocating. Thank you for giving her some much deserved credit!


For those of us worried about spending money, renting can be a huge help.
There's a lot of controversy around whether or not renting or owning is more cost-effective. While there are perks to both routes, renting can actually end up saving you quite a good bit of money. It can also save you much of the stress that comes with owning a home. If, like most people, getting the best bang for your buck is your concern, it's important to be knowledgeable on how renting can save you money. Read on below to find out five ways you're saving money by renting.
Whenever anything breaks in a rental, provided it wasn't your fault, you're not liable to fix it as a tenant. If mold were to develop or your plumbing had any issues, that's all up to your landlord or rental agency—saving you a good bit of money and time.
Renting might cost you two months rent up front, but it's nothing in comparison to the large sum of money you'd need for a down payment if you were to purchase your home. This is because many loans require you to have that down payment first and it helps drive your monthly mortgage down as well.
Because you're renting your home, you don't have to pay land or school taxes every year. This can be a big drain on the finances of a homeowner but it's not something that renters have to dwell on, which is a fantastic way to save a bit of money.
When you buy a home, there's always a chance that the home will start to decrease in value over time. This is especially true if you don't perform proper maintenance and upkeep to keep the home in similar condition as to when you bought it. When you rent a property, that concern is left to your rental office or landlord.
Utilities in rentals tend to be lower just by virtue of the buildings being smaller, but on top of that, you may not even have to worry about utilities. Sometimes landlords factor that price into your rent, which can be a great way to save time and even some money depending on the season.

Buying And Selling Comics
By Charli Jhonson on May 10, 2010 0
It has been said that the years starting in the mid 1980's were the beginning of the modern day market for collectible comic books. During this time, there were very few collectors and mostly just readers who would store their comics in the attic or any other area used to put junk. Now, all of these older comics have become valuable collector's items and some may be surprised as to the prices people will pay to buy sell comics.
This time has been said to have become the golden age because comic books were becoming much more complex. Previously, comic books had been more of a simple nature with basic stories of adventure; however, during the early to mid 1980's comic books began to take on more adult themes and situations making the plot and the issues contained there in to be much more complex. Also during this time, the older comics that were the first run or original series of a particular theme were being sold for high prices to collectors as well as some beginning to invest in bulk in many collections due to the fact that they considered their prospective value in the future.
Publishers Ramp Up
Due to the fact that there was growing interest beginning to form in the comic book collection industry, many publishing companies began using gimmicks or special editions of their comics such as special covers or holograms as well as package containers that were very valuable when they remained unopened. While comic books began to take off, the creation of toys and action figures also began to take the stage while being offered as collectibles as well. However, with the onslaught of so many companies beginning to produce these special editions and marketing gimmicks, many of the comics that were deemed to be very valuable would never bear fruit and people began to sell comic books very cheap. Due to this fact, many of the small retailers and distributors of comic books began to flail and in the early to mid 1990's, comic book vendors became almost extinct. Thinking that most of these comics were worthless, many threw away their once valued books or put them back in storage and the amount of collectible comics began to disappear.
Comic Comeback
Because so many people thought that the comics that they once hoarded were worthless, collectors were being bought out in bulk for little to nothing. These bulk loads of books were stored and now we are seeing another comeback in the collecting of these older comics that were once prized by their owners. Although they are not worth what they once were, certain mass produced comics are bringing fair prices around the world and more and more people are getting back into the hobby of buying and selling comic books during the present. Selling comics is now becoming a profitable form of investing but one should remember that there is always the possibility of loss in anything that he or she may invest in.

It was a caring, father-like boss who sat me down in 1995 and said that he and other people had become concerned about me. He said he didn't know what was going on but that I needed to get help… or maybe lose my job. That was the start of a journey of peaks and valleys, sharp curves, tears and — most importantly — learning!
I am not sure when I was specifically diagnosed. Most professionals suspect that I have been depressed most of my life, but since 1995 I have been diagnosed with dysthymic disorder, mood disorder and have had multiple major depressive episodes.
Early on in this journey I didn't have much support at all. Through prayer, acceptance, listening and being there my pastor and church family have helped me learn, grow and remind me in the darkest of times that God loves me and has a plan for me.
I have accepted that I need to take medication probably for the rest of my life. I have also had to be willing to take a look at my life through counseling, reshape my ideas and perceptions, and grow to a place where I can accept things and grant forgiveness where needed. An unexpected lifestyle change was establishing/accepting a personal relationship with Jesus Christ.
I have struggled with and have fought this battle with depression for years pretty much alone.
Having the courage to share my struggle with my church family and continue to do so for purposes of education and to encourage others who struggle.
Becoming debt free in 2015 after five years of sacrifice, multiple jobs and living on a tight budget.
You are not alone! Find someone you trust — like a friend, a boss, a counselor or a doctor — and talk to them, and then talk some more! Be willing and open to try different things or medications. What works for one person may not work for you. Keep fighting — you are worth it! God loves you!
Keep fighting — you are worth it!
I have struggled with and have fought this battle with depression for years pretty much alone. It is a hope of mine that I can one day "pay forward" the encouragement, love and acceptance I have received from my church family to others who are struggling.
I am the youngest of eight children but I never felt especially close to any of my siblings, and as an adult I still don't. Since getting my diagnoses, getting help and accepting things I have become more comfortable with family.
I was a floral designer for 13 years. Now I work at the local hospital and for my church. I love dogs. I had one, a Lhasa Apso called Casey, for 11 years, and she kept me alive many times through the years. I miss her to this day. I have knitted now for about five years, a little bit of everything.
I don't have a website or blog. I've been told my many people professionals and friends that I am a good writer. I'm not so sure about that, however I do know that it does help me. Maybe a blog is in my future? I hope someday my story can be a source of encouragement, comfort or information that will help someone else in need.
Janet-I pray you have a support system you can lean on. Something I've found helpful especially early in this journey is journaling/writing. I have many letters I've written to people of thoughts etc I'd like them to know. Praying for you.
