A Riot for Dinner
by Bobbie Bergesen
A not terribly unusual experience, the one described by the Foreign Service spouse author. U. S. diplomats abroad often run into anti-American demonstrations. Here is the story of one such encounter, one that fortunately had a relatively benign ending.-Ed.
In the mid-sixties, when America was focused on the war in Vietnam, we were living just next door, in Cambodia, where my husband was with the American Embassy in Phnom Penh, the capital. As the war began spilling over the leaky border between the two countries, one of its first visible effects in the Cambodian capital was a "spontaneous" anti-American riot. Although only a ripple, the riot, and others that followed, foreshadowed the widening surges of war that were to engulf the country in the seventies, changing its course forever.
In late 1963, when we first arrived in Phnom Penh, the city was peaceful and pleasant. The streets were clean: modern garbage trucks (imported from communist Czechoslovakia, as I remember) made daily rounds; the curbstones lining the main streets and tree-shaded boulevards were frequently whitewashed. The famed ruins of Angkor Wat lay in a park-like setting half a day's drive to the northwest, over an excellent asphalt road. The former royal city and great temple complex built by Khmer civilizations from about the ninth to the thirteenth centuries drew us like a magnet. We visited it as often as we could.
Even at the best of times, few American tourists reached Angkor. For us, coming upon it after the pleasant but somewhat monotonous drive over open country, was a surprise. Little hinted at the archaeological treasures to come. The road, used by local people to catnap or dry rice on, or to lounge beside for a chat, ran through flat terrain scattered about with the usual Southeast Asian basha huts. One clue stood out – a stone bridge, a dilapidated span about midway to Siem Reap, the town nearest the ruins. A short sharp arch over a dried-up stream bed, the bridge was flanked by carved railings in the shape of thick-bodied, humped-up Nagas (mythological serpents). The Nagas were carried in the arms of five or six stone demons sitting cross legged, their faces almost worn away. These railings were like the balustrades of the much larger causeway to Angkor Thom, at the center of the Angkor complex. With international assistance, mainly French, many of the ruins had been restored; other deliberately left to the jungle. At Ta Prohm, for example, the clinging, thick white aerial roots of a huge ficus tree half covered the impassive godlike face carved out of the massive stone blocks which formed the entrance to the shrine.
The American Embassy, Phnom Penh, 1963
Once, driving up to Angkor, we saw an army of ducks marching in single file along the boundary ridge that separated one rice paddy dike from the next. As they waddled along in their determined, single minded way, quacking loudly, the whole outfit looked such a perfect caricature of a marching army that we laughed out loud. The thought of soldiers invading that peaceful scene never crossed my mind.It was on our last visit, in early 1965, while others explored nearby, that I stumbled over a round gray stone, about four inches thick and ten inches around. Five or six stones lay half hidden in dry brown stubble not far from the famous Bayon temple, about which little is known except that it probably dates from the sixth or seventh century. Perhaps the weathered rounds had toppled from its dark gray towers centuries ago.. Unbroken, they lay spread out in the rough outline of a fallen column. Each bore a two inch wide carved band of intricate, deeply incised designs, traces of which were still visible despite years of pelting monsoon rains and scorching sun.
But early that March morning in Phnom Penh, neither Angkor nor the gray stones were on my mind. It was the hottest month of the year, hardly the time for sightseeing. But it wasn't the rising temperature that heightened tension in the capital. Although over a year was to pass before the final diplomatic break, official Cambodian-American relations had been heating up. The Cambodian government had sent American military and economic aid missions packing; and "spontaneous," actually carefully orchestrated, street demonstrations protesting alleged "Anglo-American" policies towards Cambodia were beginning to occur in town.
Although we'd lived there several months, our household goods shipped from home had only recently arrived. Our first official dinner party was to take place that evening, after which we planned to take our guests to a performance by an American ballet company on tour. (This, as it turned out, was the first, last, and only Western cultural event of our stay.)
That morning in March was also remarkable in that our phone actually rang. Electricity was erratic and there were so few phones in the capital, ours was hardly ever used, even when it worked. Quickly putting the centerpiece of tube roses on the dining table, I hurried into the den to answer it.
"Glad you're home," my husband said through crackling static. "Just wanted to tell you a protest demonstration's starting in front of the embassy. Quite a crowd's down here already, shouting slogans and waving signs." His voice faded. "You weren't planning to come downtown, I hope."
Evacuation from Phnom Penh to Saigon begins on board Japanese vessel, Jan. 1964.
"No, I went down early to buy flowers for the party. Didn't notice any excitement then around Central Market. I'm about to leave for art class; that's the only other place I have to go today."Getting our station wagon out of the garage, I drove to the class in a nearby friend's garden. Just as class ended, she pointed toward the entrance gate. "Look at those teenagers! I wonder if they're back from the demonstration downtown?"
Four Cambodians in wilted school uniforms of white shirt and dark blue pants stared in at us wordlessly through the high wrought-iron gate. Hand-lettered placards dangling from sticks across their shoulders read "Down With The Free World!" and "Yankee Dog." "Perfidious Albion" read another. Finally, the youths trudged off.
Outside the gate, the street was a shimmering white glare. A dusty haze made the familiar buildings look unreal; they wavered slightly, as though seen in a dream—or a nightmare. Far down at the end of the street, in front of the British Embassy, a crowd of midgets milling around two or three miniature cars seemed to spill over into the intersection. Turning into narrower but empty streets, I drove home by a slightly longer way.
Maybe, I thought, I should try to reach the embassy by phone. But just then the doorbell rang and the wife of an international official hurried in. "I've come to offer your children asylum," she announced, "and you, too, if you want." I was astonished.
"Don't you know?" she cried. "Anti-Western mobs are all over town. They've hauled all the furniture out of the American Library and stacked it in the middle of the street. At the British Council, they're throwing everything they can lay their hands on out the windows. We could hardly get by. They tried to stop my car, even though my driver kept shouting that I was not American. We barely got through. Now they're storming your embassy. Who knows where they'll head next! Oh, I must get home… ."
Before she hurried away, I thanked her, but turned down her offer to send a car for us after the children were home from school.
"Where have you been?" Alf's voice was barely audible. This time the connection was really poor. "Are you all right? Things started getting rough about half an hour after I called you and I've been trying to reach you off and on ever since. We're in the middle of a real riot this time," he went on. "They're throwing bricks, rocks and what look like small boulders up at us. They hauled the flag down and burned it. A couple of cars have been overturned out front. All the windows downstairs have been smashed "
"Is anybody hurt?"
"No," he said. "We got everybody upstairs when it started. How is everything around there?"
Except for the British Embassy area, I explained, the neighborhood was quiet. Our house was about a twenty-minute walk from our embassy, but the children's school was on a side street nearer the center of downtown.
"We sent a van and driver over to the school when things began to get going here," Alf said. "I haven't had a chance to check on it since. But when the kids get home, all of you stay there, please. And don't forget, you have one of the few working phones—in case you or others around there need it."
Pavillion inside Royal Palace grounds, Phnom Penh, 1963.
Half an hour later, the children burst in, exploding into fragments of news. "The embassy's being attacked, Mom; we saw some of the crowds!"
"We had to drive all over the place to get home." Sue interrupted her brother. "It was neat, like a chase in the movies. They kept waving the signs up and down and sort of smiling at us."
"Let's have lunch," I said, finally. With the dining room tightly shuttered against the outside heat, the air was stuffy. Still in tight buds, some of the tube roses on the table were drooping. I threw them away. A bit later, curling up on the rattan sofa in the den, Sue opened her favorite, Black Beauty. Picking up a pair of binoculars, Chris went upstairs to the balcony that ran along the front of the house. Screened by the feathery top of a flame tree, he tried to focus them on the library a few blocks away.
"Let me be the one who calls Dad if they set fire to the building," he said when I came out. He came downstairs as three embassy officials drove up. One man stayed by the car while the other two came in the house.
"Everything all right?"
"Yes, fine, thanks," I said. "How are things at the embassy?"
"Well, the first floor is knee-deep in broken glass, and almost everything down there is fairly well smashed up. They didn't get upstairs. It seems to be over now; but they're still working the library over."
Evening finally came. There was a full house at the theater. Making their way slowly through the crowded lobby, one or two Cambodian acquaintances murmured to us, "I'm so sorry… what a dreadful day!"
After the ballet, Alf leaned over to whisper "Before we go home, let's stop a minute at the embassy." Wooden saw horses barred traffic a block away from the dark embassy building. Coming out of the shadows, a policeman glanced at the car's license plate and moved the barriers aside to let our car through. The inky black hulks of overturned cars loomed ahead, looking like enormous beetles lying bleakly on their backs.
Seen head on, the embassy entrance gaped extra wide. The steel-reinforced main door was gone and so were the glass bricks on either side. Cautiously, as though probing a wound, we stepped into the wanly lit lobby. At the far end, an American guard sat at a bare desk. Wire cables dangled from a switchboard slanted at an angle. Warm air stirred through broken windows along the side wall, where unit air conditioners once functioned. A hand basin torn from the wall lay on the tiled floor of the restroom. The toilet bowl was chopped in half.
Alf vanished upstairs.
"Oh, this isn't bad now." The guard shrugged. "You should have seen it before we cleaned it all up. All the public rooms got it. You couldn't walk through the mess."
Rejoining us, Alf dropped some sharp-edged rocks into my hand. "Here are some of the smaller ones that landed upstairs. Want to keep them as a souvenir—put them in a flowerpot or something?"
Abruptly, the handful of rocks reminded me of the carefully crafted gray stones from the fallen column at Angkor Wat. Even today, maybe the stones are still lying there in dry stubble, thrown down like hard round seeds on barren ground. The sharp rocks from the embassy that Alf handed me are my only tangible souvenirs of the riot. When Cambodian-American diplomatic relations were officially broken in May 1965 and the embassy was forced to close, we left, never to return.

4 Hot Topics Trending in Tech News
by ontech | Jan 3, 2019 | Personal Tech Tips
Technology is constantly evolving, with new threats being introduced and new solutions proposed. The recent past is full of both challenges and opportunities, from near-constant data breaches that exposed millions of emails, to the changing nature of social media.
Tech giants certainly faced their fair share of challenges. From Microsoft retooling its troubled Edge product with a Chrome-based engine, to their proposed regulation of facial recognition, here are four of the hottest topics in tech, and what they have to teach us.
1) Amazon Exposes Customer Names and Emails
Data breaches have long been a problem in the retail world, with companies of all sizes being impacted. The best known online retailer in the world has just recently faced this challenge in a big way. As shoppers hunted for bargains at Amazon.com, they got more than they bargained for.
The retail giant inadvertently exposed customer names and emails, leaving those accounts exposed and raising the risk of identity theft and other serious repercussions.
Amazon.com blamed the exposure on a technical glitch, and the company claims that the underlying problem has been fixed. They also claimed that no credit card or financial information was involved in the breach, offering shoppers a bit of good news along with the bad. The company declined to say how many online shoppers had been affected, and it said the impacted customers have been contacted directly.
2) Will Facebook Make a Cyber security Acquisition?
It was another challenging year social media giant Facebook. The company continues to struggle with a loss of consumer confidence, in addition to a slowing of growth.
Security concerns continue to be top of mind, and now Facebook seems poised to make a new acquisition, one that could reassure users and help keep their data safe. Stories recently surfaced that Facebook was ready to make a cyber security acquisition, a move many in the tech industry claimed was long overdue.
Anonymous sources state that Facebook has approached a number of cyber security firms – yet another indication that the leading social media company is taking user privacy and protection more seriously than ever before. But the question remains, will the acquisition actually take place? While this strategic move could address one of their most pressing problems, there's no telling to what degree it could help restore the confidence of its users.
3) Microsoft Plans to Rebuild Edge with Chrome-Based Browser
Microsoft may be the undisputed leader with its flagship Windows operating system, but the tech giant has faced enormous challenges with its browser products. After many years of struggling with their Internet Explorer browser, Microsoft created Edge, a product it claimed would revolutionize the industry.
The reality turned out to be far less impressive than the hype, and Microsoft appeared to throw in the towel. Edge will soon be reborn under the same branding, but under-the-hood, Edge will be running Chromium, the popular open-source solution that powers Google's Chrome product.
Many in the tech industry see the adoption of Chromium as the final indication that open-source has finally won the browser wars. After years of proprietary products, Microsoft has officially joined the open-source crowd, joining the likes of Mozilla's Firefox and Google's Chrome.
4) Microsoft President Calls for Regulation over Facial Recognition
Facial recognition is a fast-growing trend in tech. It can lock our smartphones and unlock office doors, but so far, regulation has lagged far behind the technology. That may be changing however, and facial recognition may soon get the regulatory scrutiny many have called for.
Microsoft recently joined the discussion, with president Brad Smith expressing concern about the fast spread of facial recognition technology and the scarcity of regulatory control. Even as he acknowledged the profit potential of facial recognition technology, Mr. Smith urged a go-slow approach.
The president of Microsoft also pointed out the deep societal implications of this fast-growing technology, including the potential for abuse. From concerns about repressive governments, to issues of personal privacy, facial recognition has the potential to disrupt people's lives like never before.
By proposing regulation of the technology, Microsoft is attempting to get ahead of the situation, putting the brakes on facial recognition while still allowing responsible use of the technology.
While concerns surrounding the tech industry have never been greater, neither has the promise. Only time will tell where current tech trends will lead, but understanding what has happened in the past could be the best way to understand our technological future.

Security Threats
We hired OnTech a year ago, and are grateful we did! Prior to, we heard complaining from team members regarding various tech elements. No more! Our company invested in the equipment/programs they suggested for OUR company and OUR size of staff. They were spot on! No more complaints about slow computers, programs freezing up, or being tied to the phone. OnTech has given us freedom, flexibility and security in our day to day work life. In fact, I'm not sure how we functioned without them! Have a problem? Need something urgent fixed/looked into? ONTECH! Today is a GREAT example of their efforts. I called in with a problem that had a team member shut down. Shortly after, our IT Consultant, Dan Dineen, called to help me and SOLVED the issue. Dan is endlessly patient; his knowledge is amazing and he's always going above and beyond. That's OnTech as a whole! I'm impressed every time I need to call in for help. If you are looking for help with any of your IT needs, look no further! Call them TODAY!
My full time employer came across OnTech from a cold call from Jackie. While talking to her, OnTech had better rates than the company we were currently using for outside tech support (I'm being nice and not naming the company). As it was, the outside tech support company we were using at the time we were becoming unimpressed with, so I talked with management into giving OnTech a chance. Once OnTech came in as our outside tech support, we've been nothing but impressed! Dealing with Keegan, John, and Dan (as well as a few others, but these 3 have been our main contacts) has always met or exceeded the expectations of ours. The team actually listens to what we have to say for what we are looking for and will come back with one or more solutions at all times. In the end, I highly recommend OnTech to anyone looking for a team to help give you resolutions with your technology needs as well as support!

That's right, you heard it here first: Cowboy hats are racist.
I hear tell it was a nice place before Bob got there it his liberal college ways and modern ideas.
I say that you should descend on his house with pitchforks and lighted torches.
Nothing in Austin surprises me any more.
Forgive me, but I think cowboys and Indians would be an excuse for a fight these days. Especially as youth mixed with alcohol is a mess to begin with, let alone Indian youth mixed with alcohol.
There aren't any cowboys or Indians in Austin; there are only hipsters, panhandlers, bureaucrats, and Lutherans left.
I'll take the panhandlers, bereaucrats, and Lutherans.
I think this is people unclear on the concept. And you guys are falling for it. They're talking about costumes for Halloween parties on campus. Just costumes. Note that cowboy boots are fine, so are cowboy belts, shirts, etc. No explicit prohibition there. They didn't even prohibit a western saddle or a horse. I would have guessed that bringing a horse might be awkward. But no. Go ahead. In fact cowboy hats are not prohibited either. It's cowboys and indians (esp squaws) that are prohibited as a costume for a pair for Halloween party. This is like a spin 2 situation. But Indian dress is not prohibited either. I'll bet you could get away with British Raja & Sari clad women (multiple). Or Cowboys and Aliens. Now that's pretty good. And they're likely not prohibiting healthy liaisons developing between folks dressed as cowboys and folks dressed as indians. That's a scattering problem. They're not going to ask you to take off your costume. Or you could just cross dress.
Have a drink. You're all crazy sensitive. Ok there are a bunch of progressive liberals in Austen that would prefer you refrain from denigrating other cultures.

For the record, it's still ridiculous.
I'm telling you, boys, everytime ol Rus gets himself a female avatar, hijinks arise.
Yes it is. The micromanaging, thought policing and so on by mandate is all ridiculous. I hate what this country acts like. It reminds me of anti beard laws in Turkmenistan.
But it feels so slinky! Ooooh.
I'm just providing context and translation for the Austin liberal talk, because I know that nobody reads all the documents. We wouldn't want the Texans proudly & persistently violating a nonexistent rule.
Y'see this is one of good benefits of going as a werewolf. Nobody ever prohibits them and you can bite the rule makers.
This may not be the right place for this, but can anybody explain why the 'Safe Place' sign has a picture of a white guy groping a black woman?
Sir Moose wrote: This may not be the right place for this, but can anybody explain why the 'Safe Place' sign has a picture of a white guy groping a black woman?
JimVH could probably provide a wonderful update. But it's basically for youth (12-17) at risk or in crisis that need help. A network of places all over America that are trained to help them. So "Safe Places". I suppose it could be interpreted as an alternative to shooting black youth. That particular sign was replaced in 2012. But you should think of it as a hug rather than what you were thinking.
It's a sign pervs put in their window to trick troubled kids into coming to their house.
Now I have an excuse to buy a new hat...not that I need a new hat or an excuse, but they never hurt.

The fetish of cuckolding - where men allow other men to have sexual relationships with their wives - is on the rise.

EPT10 London: Rising star David 'MissOracle' Yan on EPTLive and unknown models
If you've been listening to EPTLive over the last season or so you'll likely recognise David Yan's voice. It's a calm and rolling Kiwi accent which has, if you can imagine an 1990's stereo, the bass setting of the graphic equaliser slid to around 6.5. Or thereabouts.
The 20-year-old from Auckland is a well-travelled grinder who has already planted a few live tournaments flags. His most recent was on home turf (well, it's the right continent anyway) when he chopped the APPT Melbourne Main Event for A$133,000 ($119,912), but his biggest win came in the Aussie Millions at the beginning of the year ($232,254). All in all, he's notched up more than $400,000 in live winnings in 2013 so far and, given his stack here in the EPT London Main Event, he could easily be adding more to that. Eighty-seven players get paid, around 200 remain and, at last count, Yan was up above the 90,500 average with a healthy 140,000 stack.
David Yan at APPT Melbourne
Yan's strategy chat has gone down well on the EPTLive webcast with viewers and the commentary team alike, but he didn't just wander in off the street.
"The first time I ever did it was after they posted on 2+2 asking for nominations or volunteers. I thought it would be fun to give it a go and I really enjoyed it. Whenever I get the chance I go back. If I'm playing a tournament I'm not going to sit out but whenever I bust I let them know that I can come up," said Yan.
Yan wasn't born with a perfect knowledge of poker, like everyone else he had to work for it. He played $5 and $10 sit-and-gos (NZ dollars) before moving onto micro limit cash games against friends before discovering online poker. It did not initially go well. He started with $10 and lost it. Then $20 and that went, too. Another $50 followed in the same way before Yan decided that he'd deposit $100 with his own bankroll management rules, despite never actually having heard of the concept before. He started on the $1 nine-man sit-and-gos and in May of this year he won the Sunday $500 for $88,543.80. Hard work can go a long way.
So while we're obviously grateful for Yan's webcast contributions perhaps it's not all that selfless. He told us that he thinks it helps his own game.
"It's just like coaching. Even when you're teaching someone and you think that you're better than they are, which isn't always the case, by the way, just from thinking about the game and articulating your thoughts. If you just look at a hand and think about it briefly you forget about it, but if you're forced to explain your thought process it really helps, regardless of whether your thought process was correct or not," said Yan.
David "MissOracle" Yan at EPT London
"Sometimes there are other people there to discuss it with. Sometimes they'll be a really good Team Pro or sometimes someone not so much involved in playing from the media team. That helps in terms of understanding how different players think. It's important to think about poker, not just in terms of how other regular players think but also how recreational players think, how semi-professional players think, or live pros and online pros."
So, what we're think you're trying to say, David, is that should you win the EPT Main Event it will partly be thanks to us? We'll see you at the bar…
One last question
So where did his PokerStars avatar come from? The one of a cute girl?
"I think I Googled 'cute girl' and that was one of the ones I liked. I think it's just a random girl. Maybe I should source the photographer or modelling agency," said Yan.
This could be the beginning of a Tom Hanks movie.

Meaning: The red base represents courage. The blue stands for freedom and the white represents purity. The five stars symbolize the constellation the Southern Cross, representing the stars Alpha, Beta, Gamma, Delta and Epsilon, which is smaller because it doesn't shine as brightly as the other stars in the constellation. The cross represents Samoa's geographical position in the world and its link to New Zealand, which also incorporates the Southern Cross on its national flag.
History: The Samoan flag was adopted on February 24, 1949, while Samoa was still a trust territory of New Zealand. Samoa gained independence from New Zealand on January 1, 1962. The basic design of the Samoan flag was created in 1948. That flag was identical to the current flag except the Southern Cross star pattern had only four stars. The fifth star was added in February of 1949.
Interesting Facts: The Island changed its name from Western Samoa to the Independent state of Samoa in 1997, but the flag remained the same (source: worldflags101).


The large-scale military exercises held off Hainan Island and the live-fire drills planned for tomorrow by Beijing within 12 nautical miles (22.2km) off the Fujian coast are presented by the Chinese news media as a show of displeasure by Beijing at the independent policy lines pursued by President Tsai Ing-wen (蔡英文), and at the moves by the US to enhance its relations with Taiwan.
The Chinese saber-rattling was already evident in earlier military pressure against Taiwan, in particular the increased air and naval operations in the vicinity of the island — including escorted strategic bomber encirclement flights — and the deployment of its aircraft carrier on the Chinese side of the Taiwan Strait.
The fundamental problem is that the authorities in Beijing still see cross-strait relations through the outdated prism of the (unfinished) civil war between Mao Zedong's (毛澤東) Communists and Chiang Kai-shek's (蔣介石) Nationalists.
Somehow, Chinese President Xi Jinping (習近平) and his colleagues have been unable to think beyond the confines of the rigid dogma that the only possible resolution is for Taiwan to be "reunited" with China.
The problem with that approach is that Taiwan was never part of the People's Republic of China in the first place, but was the unhappy landing place for the defeated nationalists of Chiang, whose regime then ruled the island under martial law for 38 years.
Thanks to the hard work and resilience of Taiwanese, the nation made its momentous transition to democracy in the late 1980s and early 1990s, and is now a vibrant and even rambunctious democracy.
Having worked so hard to attain their democracy, the people on the island are not about to give up their hard-won freedoms and are thus not inclined whatsoever to agree to "unification" under any model, whether it is called "one country, two systems" or under the guise of the so-called "1992 consensus" with whatever many interpretations.
Opinion polls in Taiwan show that the people of the island overwhelmingly reject these concepts.
So, if there is to be lasting peace and stability in the region, Beijing needs to come to terms with the fact that there is a free and democratic Taiwan next door, and develop a more constructive policy based on mutual recognition and peaceful coexistence as friendly neighbors.
All too often Western analysts jump to the conclusion that tensions are rising and war is imminent. A recent article in the National Interest by Paul Smith of the US Naval War College is one example ("How the Taiwan Travel Act could start a US-China War," March 29). Another example is a book published in 2007 by Michael O'Hanlon and Richard Bush, titled A War Like No Other, which elaborates on a dozen scenarios describing in detail how war could break out.
While one should not discount that Chinese threats could lead to a military confrontation, it is essential to counter those threats, and ensure that Beijing understands that any adventurism and attempt to subdue or annex Taiwan would be disastrous for itself.
In the meantime, it would help if Western observers would focus their creativity on developing scenarios of a peaceful resolution whereby Beijing — perhaps grudgingly — accepts Taiwan as a friendly neighbor. Too often people take the present — very uncompromising — state of mind and non-conciliatory position of the Chinese leaders as a given.

A man from Co Leitrim who won over €1 million in the Ireland Only Raffle has revealed that he thought his ticket was only worth €5,000. The lucky player purchased his 'White Ticket' Quick Pick from the Newtowngore Post Office on the day of the draw on Friday 17th February, and has been left stunned by his seven-figure windfall.
The game on 17th February marked the first time that the Ireland Only Raffle had created a millionaire since its launch last September. Usually there are ten prizes of €5,000, but as a one-off the winners were then placed in a separate draw for an additional €1 million.
The man from Leitrim had no idea about the special prize until he came forward, and he will now 'take some time to reflect on the win' before making any plans. He told reporters: "I was checking the results on the TV on the night of the draw and I noticed that I had one of the winning EuroMillions raffle numbers and I was absolutely over the moon with the €5,000 prize.
There will be another chance for Irish lottery fans to pick up a huge prize in tonight's EuroMillions draw, when a jackpot of €35 million will be up for grabs. The top prize in Irish Lotto is also up to an impressive €13 million ahead of tomorrow night's draw, following another rollover on Saturday.
Whether you like the sound of winning big on EuroMillions, Irish Lotto, or both, you can choose your numbers online now, or buy tickets from an authorised retailer in Ireland. Good luck!

Nope it doesn't happen very often, in fact almost unheard of, but I am sorry.
I believed the hype, Goldibollocks and Screechy jailed, then I find Tommeh has gone down too, the world has just got better, only Hatie Slopkins for a full house and the ale would flow better than the Gypsy Wedding I have just dealt with(swap Guinness for ale though) I gave up, not fighting bigotry, racism and the like but I gave up, I had a few weeks of being with my kids, talking to my wife and not worrying about the shit that's flying. I gave up caring about the cunt in the White House or what the cunt in 10 Downing Street is doing to fuck our lives up. In all honesty I became human again, Facebook was just an F on my phone, Twitter was a distant memory, my web history was 18+ viewing and not Islamophobia, my life became a bubble……..I gave up, I'd had enough, could no longer be arsed. But then I was shaken out of it, I'm back (ish). I hate bigotry, racism, bully's, money grabbing fraudsters and wankstains so I'm not going away.
I hate the way social media has become a mouthpiece for hatred, I hate the way the right wing exploit this, I hate the way that you can block or report those that challenge your views, I hate the way Real Ale costs so much, I hate the way the Jeremy Kylers have taken celebrity to another level.
I play/ed sport to a high level..sportsmen and women are heroes. Not politicians, not right wing media whores but those that represent their country, not wankers who wrap themselves with the flag.
So Tommeh the hero, his fans go wild and Stephen Yaxley Lennon is now more famous than Harry Kane, Joe Root and Anthony Joshua. Or is he………
The gruesome twosome are in this for the cash l, no one can deny this, so who is SYL or syphilis as I like to call him… arrested, charged and jailed he ain't a KFC bargain bucket. He's a racist cunt, like Goldibollocks and Screechy but he's a cleverer racist cunt. His rap sheet is mahoooooosive, from wife beating to mortgage fraud, it's almost "if you've got a crime get me out of here. This is the SYL who has been filmed beating the shit out of fellow race goers, who was on tv as a racist cunt and is now languishing behind bars. Is there any difference between him and our favourite racist cunts……. nope.
Goldibollocks and Screechy are all about money, five faaaasand her for a van, five faaaasand there because our system was hacked, 20 faaaasand for court cases, the rap sheet goes on and on , and Stephen Yaxley Lennon( he hates us using this name)is exactly the same, but cuter
He uses Rebel TV as his mouthpiece, and from moles inside this he was defrauding them, he set up his own platform to con more money out of the sheeple, he is in love with For Britain and Anne Marie Waters, he WAS the leader of the EDL who apart from the NF, BNP and Combat 18 the most racist of Potato groups in this country. And he asks l, just like Screechy and Goldibollocks, for money. SYL, Goldibollocks and Screechy. Two cheeks of the same arse.
So here's a promise to you here at EBF, I may not buy as many hobnobs, coffee and custard creams as I did, but I ain't letting the cuntspangles off the hook for a minute.
Britain first's radical creation

How many times has Britain first protested at Finsbury Park Mosque?
How many times has Britain first called for white non-Muslims to rise up and take action against the Muslim 'invasion'?
How many times has Britain first told its followers that they're in a civil war against Muslims?
How many white British people have been radicalised by Golding and Fransen?
How many British Muslims will be radicalised by atrocities such as the one perpetrated against innocent worshippers at Finsbury Park in the early hours of this morning?
Britain First isn't just a profiteering organisation making money off the back of radicalised racists. It's also one of Daesh's most effective recruitment mechanisms.
Theresa May has pledged to clamp down on far right hate preachers. We suggest she starts with Fransen, Golding, Lomax and Lewis. We demand that the British government proscribe Britain First as a terrorist organisation and place all its 'officers' and activists on trial under the prevention of terrorism act.
We demand that this is done without delay. We further demand that hate preachers like Katie Hopkins, Nigel Farage, Paul Nuttall, Tommy (Yaxley-Lennon) Robinson also stand trial for inciting hate crimes against Muslims, refugees, immigrants and non-whites.
Come on Prime Minister – you've said you're serious about prosecuting hate preachers. Now's the time to get on and do it. Let's not have yet another U-turn.
Finsbury Park: The shame of a nation
June 19, 2017 June 20, 2017 EBFBlogger Far right myths, Immigration, Islam, Mosque, Muslim, Radicalisation, terrorism	attack, Darren Osborne, Finsbury Park, hate crime, incitement, Islington, keyboard warrior, Mosque, terror, terrorist
In the early hours of this morning a 48 year old lone wolf, presumably radicalised over time in the developing hate-filled, anti-Muslim, right wing culture of modern Britain took it upon himself to drive a van into helpless Muslim worshippers in Finsbury Park. One man is dead and 10 more people are injured as a result.
The atmosphere around Finsbury Park Mosque must have been electric last night with emergency vehicles sirens and lights illuminating the cacophonous streets as police and paramedics battled to save lives and restore order. Everywhere else in the land the air was heavy with a different characteristic altogether. The stench of hypocrisy lies heavy over Britain today.
We've all seen them – the 'respectable', right wing contacts on social media. Perhaps it's an old school friend of yours. Maybe it's a parent or a cousin. Perhaps it's your brother or your sister. They're the smug, unthinking, superficial clowns who just love to post memes and forward tweets about those awful Muslims. They bang on endlessly about 'rapefugees' or fake, easily debunked 'news' from Breitbart about 'creeping Sharia' and cheerfully declare that refugees should be drowned and all immigrants already here should either be deported or sterilised. Don't deny it – we all know who they are.
I wouldn't normally suggest seeking out these losers, these lonely, embittered bigots whose only claim to fame is their ability to libel and slander an entire group of people. It's true that they're usually spectacularly wrong with their implausible predictions that never come true and that can be amusing on occasion. It's also true that giving them the oxygen of interaction encourages them, as it does with any other mischevious internet troll. But today I think we should all make contact and let them know what we think of the fruits of their labour.
These Islamaphobic bigots are the ones responsible for radicalisation of far right terrorists in UK. By constantly demonising Muslims, refugees, 'foreigners' and non-whites they have created a narrative that shames the whole nation. And now, many of these same people are posting memes and tweeting tweets condemning the violence that they themselves have helped to create.
So I say we should contact them en masse. If you know an online bigot who preaches the sort of hate that led to the Finsbury Park attack don't let them off the hook. Remind them of their onslaught of hatred and the impact they have had upon our nation. Expose their divisive lies and let them know that we understand the blood that is on their hands – blood that they may never manage to wash clean. Let them know that we hold them every bit as responsible for this atrocity as we do the 'lone wolf' who, egged on by thousands upon thousands of keyboard warriors like them actually drove the van that ploughed into those poor people.
Let them know that we know them.
Post this article on your own social media pages and tag them in…
and tell them to hang their heads in shame!

So here you go biffers, my credit card. I give up you win, I can't keep justifying Islam. No this isn't me, this was one of my mates in the pub, someone who marches with antifa, someone who counters biffer car park shuffles. I've never seen him like this, a total loss of faith in what he and we do. A couple of pints later he said "fuck this, they ain't Muslims, during this the holiest of times for them some fuckwits carry out more atrocities in the name of Daesh."
So what do I think. The grief peddlers wanking over Saturday nights murders like Hopkins, Robinson, Screechy and Goldibollocks are having a field day, Trump try's to justify his ban and the right wing media use this to try and pull back a disastrous election campaign. I've decided not to follow mainstream media, nor will I watch the twat Robinson on rebel tv, nor will I let the hate win, these are not Muslims the are murderous little cunts following a doctrine that is not Islamic. No apologies are necessary to me as I am 100% certain in my stance.
Screechy and Goldibollocks were on the ropes before Manchester, the threat of prison, the (excuse the Tory party word) money tree had ran dry, their benefactor ran out of Hungary and people were waking up to their fuckwittery. Now they are emboldened again, with more racist followers from America queuing up to fawn over these idiots.
But, like the murderous bastards who have carried out these attacks, Britain First are evil, using grief to fuel their leaders lifestyle, using the white supremacist movement in the US to get more money. But then where was their outrage over the bombing in Egypt, the slaughtering of many in Syria. Selective grief then.
We have to fight the right wing, we have to debunk their lies, we have to counter their evil marches, days of action and intrusions.
We also have to acknowledge the evil murderous wankers that have done this and condemn them, and we do with the same vitriol we reserve for the fascists but these people don't do it in the name of Allah they do it because they're murderous wankers.

So here we go, some crappy important sounding music, a picture of somewhere news gets done, some smug idiot standing around shuffling papers……bugger this, it ain't working, but anyway here is the EBF news, we would have done it on one of those crappy apps that the biffers use but the company involved wouldn't take a packet of hobnobs and a half eaten Curly Wurly as payment, I told Foxy to throw in a Tassimo Latte thingy but hey here we go.
Anyway here is my take on the one story this week, the arrest of Goldibollocks and Screechy for inciting religious hatred. I've read their press release did some digging and done a biffer bullshit to EBF translation. Another begging email has gone out, after all it is coming close to the summer holiday needing to be paid for, anyway I digress….
Now the background from what I've seen. Screechy has been running around Ramsgate with her crew videoing her outside various premises where alleged rapists have been working or living and basically fucking up a police and CPS investigation that has landed the alleged perpetrators in court. It's almost as if they saw what their new bestie Tommy was doing and decided we need to do some of that. Unfortunately (when I say unfortunately I actually mean hahahahahahaha) that didn't turn out too well for Tommy either who was also nicked. Now for those trolls coming over for a visit we at EBF condemn those that break the law especially paedophiles and rapists, we just don't judge them on the colour of their skin or the god they choose to follow. But anyway back to the translation.
Biffer release (BFR) We have to be very vague, as we are told Kent police have slapped some extreme bail conditions on them both which limits what they can say.
Landlord translation (LT) We've fucked up big time, we hoped that in this post brexit Britain a bit of incitement wouldn't be noticed and we need to make it sound good to get some dosh out of you
BFR The police swooped on Paul and Jayda while they were driving by blocking the road and surrounding them with police vans.
LT We was having a lovely non Halal Curry with a nice British cup of tea and two coppers knocked on our door asking us to accompany them to the station. But that doesn't sound good on the begging letters
BFR The raid included both uniformed and plain clothes CID officers.
LT Geoff from down the Dog and Duck was walking along the road but he was in civvies but we'll count him as plainclothes as it sounds better on the begging letter
BFR It was a military style ambush that was executed with precision.
LT They knocked loudly and called me sir, and doesn't it sound good on the begging letter
In all seriousness though what thorough cockwombles Goldibollocks and Screechy are. Along with Tommy and his camera buddy they were breaking the law of the land. They could now have put in jeopardy the trial of some men who may or may not have committed a disgusting offence and allowed them to be free to attack more young women. Goldibollocks and Screechy are a disgrace, this was done to incite their sheep to maintain their Islamaphobia, to fan the flames of hatred and to try and make money. It was made worse when someone took to Facebook to ask them to take one of their inciting videos down because they had the wrong address but no, they didn't comply.
So both of them, as well as hopefully some of the other High Command are going to be prosecuted or at least we hope they are, but G&S you are, in this country, innocent until proven guilty. You don't need vigilante cuntspangles camping outside your gaff spouting bollocks.
Final bit
BFR Will you chip in to help them fight this latest round of politically motivated persecution?
LT Pahahahahahahahahahahaaaaaaaaa

Not really in the mood for writing but then again why not? Every other expert, right wing fuckwit and doom merchant has so why not a slightly left wing grumpy old sod giving his and the views of his regulars on the events of Wednesday.
Firstly I think back to 9\11 and the glee on the faces of a few in the middle East as they burnt the Stars and Stripes and then I look at the vitriol from the right wing over the last couple of days and see exactly the same pleasure. The media speculate on everything making out not the gravity of the situation but trying to scare the shit out of us. To me that's as dangerous than the murderer who carried out the attack.
Read any Facebook or Twitter feed and I see one of three sets of people, firstly those who say told you so Screechy, Goldibollocks, Robinson and others on the far right. Secondly there are those who are genuinely frightened and see the press and the rabid right pushing them to believe the bullshit that they peddle and are ready to let this already right wing government to erode more of our basic rights and finally there's us.
We feel the pain caused, we feel the hurt caused but we can also see where this is going. Trump now feels his Muslim ban is justified, May can get away with more swingeing erosion of our rights and all in the name of safety. The Muslim Council of Great Britain once again feel the need to issue a statement saying it's not in our name, which is paid lip service by the media and disregarded by the far right, but what can they do anymore than they do now?
So what do we know? Well someone for an unknown reason drove a car along Westminster bridge swerved and killed some tourists, then continued and crashed into a fence by the Houses of Parliament got out, stabbed a policeman and was shot. That's it, no more no less, the rest is just conjecture and speculation, experts come on and talk endlessly about what the security forces MAY be doing. Reporters report what other reporters are reporting, Tommy Robinson gets on a train to London and tries to run around talking to anyone who's listening, Screechy and Goldibollocks release video's in which you can almost hear the sound of kerching in the background. But all we really know is from the police who release carefully worded statements so as not to fuel the hysteria but fail miserably as more and more experts and commentators add bits.
I'm horrified by the events of Wednesday but I and many others stay realistic. This was a murderer doing something that is abhorrent, not in the name of a religion or ideology but because of a warped sense of view. Last year another murderer killed Jo Cox shouting "Britain First" I didn't see a video of Screechy and Goldibollocks calling for all fascists to be deported and churches to be pulled down, I didn't see a five minute interview of Paul Nuttall spouting shit, I didn't see Tommy Robinson prostituting his gob to anyone who may listen, I didn't see an erosion of our rights but I do now.
I'm not a great lover of the police but I do however think they know what they are doing, I think they know a lot more than they are telling us but they and they alone will let us know over the coming days and weeks and this is the only information I will believe.
Finally all the admins on this page would like to pass on our condolences to the victims of this murderer, people who went out to enjoy the sights of our beautiful city, or was guarding the houses of parliament and will not be going home.

I'm not really very religious but I thought perhaps I should have a little word in God's shell-like. Too much stuff didn't make any sense. So I sat down in a quiet room with curtains drawn and meditative candles duly lit, all set to talk to my maker.
It wasn't a long conversation but it seemed to straighten a few things out for me. It went like this…


This is a great story. I love the dynamic between Nate and Alex since the beginning.
Nate and Alex complement each other and their time together is a beautiful thing to read.
Both needed to trust and learn how to love and move forward.
This story was captivating from cover to cover, I love this author's style and the way she grabs your attention and holds it! The characters are so multi layered you feel like you know them inside and out!
Nate works too hard, and it seems that he thrives on it. When he moves to Santa Monica the last thing Nate thinks will happen is that someone will catch and hold his attention, he doesn't do long term, and he is really confused because the next door neighbor he is lusting after is a man!
Alex is a sweetheart, so talented and close to those he loves, the only problem is he can't really be who he is fully until he comes out of the closet. When he meets his new neighbor, the sparks fly and it becomes almost impossible not to follow his heart.
Will these two throw caution in the wind and be able to be together? If they can, they still have the past to deal with, and for one of these men dealing with the past will be heartbreaking.
You will love this book, but grab your tissues and cue up your Beethoven for this one! Thanks Lane, for a beautiful book that invokes so many different emotions!


Auburn, ME. - The Central Maine Community College men's ice hockey team only lead for one minute and thirty-eight seconds against Wentworth Institute of Technology on Saturday night. Fortunately for the home team it was the final 1:38 of the contest, as the Mustangs used a stunning rally late to knock off the Wentworth by a final count of 4-3 at Norway Savings Bank Arena.
Central Maine put themselves in an early hole, starting sleepily and inviting heavy pressure from the Leopards. Central Maine goalkeeper Anthony Tilelli, coming off a victory over Thomas College 10 days prior, made several sprawling saves throughout the first period to keep the Leopards at bay as they held a heavy 21-9 shot advantage through the first period.
Wentworth's heavy pressure would finally pay off 12:23 into the contest when Joe Christikas found himself all alone in front of Tilelli after a lapse in defensive coverage. He would bang home a Joe Ripa shot from the right point to draw first blood for the Leopards.
"I thought our start was really sloppy," said Mustangs head coach Matt Buotte. "We had some really poor defensive lapses early that put us in a hole. We were really sleepwalking at the start."
The slumber would continue through the remainder of the period as the Mustangs would find themselves in a two goal hole with 3:11 remaining in the first. Ryan Freker was able to beat defenseman Parker Springer to the net on a 2-on-2 rush and slide a Steve Defuria feed past Tilelli to double the Leopards lead. From there, it Tilelli took over, stopping several more chances in the periods final minutes to keep the deficit at two.
"If it wasn't for Tony we might have come out of the first down five," said Buotte. "Seriously. He competed so hard tonight. He never quit on one puck and it was number on reason we were able to even be in this contest. [CM Athletic Director Gonyea] Dave told me after the game it was the best goaltending performance he's seen in the three years of the program and I absolutely believe it."
The Mustangs would finally break through 3:25 into the middle period, when Jordy Knoren took a brilliant Patrick Pearson pass and snuck in behind the Wentworth defense, calmly slotting the breakaway opportunity past Leopards goalkeeper Patrick Byrne to trim the lead to 2-1. The goal was Knoren's 5th of the year, with Shawn Sullivan adding a secondary assist on the play.
As they have been wont to do, the Mustangs rode the momentum to another quick goal just :31 later. Sean Coleman slid the puck up the half wall to Sullivan, who faked a slap shot before sliding the puck to Drake Goupil on the back post. Goupil didn't hesitate, rifling the one-timer past Byrne to tie the score with 16:04 left to play in the second.
The game would remain deadlocked at two for most of the middle period, with the Leopards holding a slight 8-7 shot advantage. Of the eight shots they had, several were golden opportunities thwarted by Tilelli.
"Tony played probably his best game I've seen him play," said Mustangs defenseman Parker Springer. "He was incredible and we needed that in a game like this."
Tilelli would be solved for the final time with 2:22 remaining in the second, when winger Matt Sardone found himself alone in front, jamming a feed from Freker past an outstretch Tilelli to put Wentworth back on top, a lead they would hold heading into the third period.
The third period saw the teams at a bit of stalemate, with both teams trying to limit quality opportunities. The Mustangs would kill a Jacoby Robinson cross-checking penalty in the first half of the period and the Leopards would kill a holding penalty in the second half, but the teams remained at 3-2 as time wound down.
Then, with the Mustangs ramping up the pressure, they would finally get the tying goal they had been after. After a good cycling play by Coleman on on the wall, Litchfield, New Hampshire native Trevor Roche slid a pass to an open Goupil, who immediately fired the puck past Byrne to level the score at 3. It was Goupil's second of the evening and 6th of the season.
"Late in the third we were desperate for a goal," said Goupil, a second year forward and assistant captain. "I knew it was going to have to be a greaser to get things tied. We had a good cycle and I was able to pop out in front and get positioned. I didn't even see it go in, but [Sean] Coleman's reaction made me know it went in. It gave us a lot of momentum."
From there the stage was set for some late-game heroics. As he has made of a habit of early in this Mustangs career, forward Beau Armstrong—silenced most of the evening—made his appearance on the scoresheet in grand fashion. After a turnover at the offensive blue line, Jordy Knoren flew down the left wing before sliding a cross-ice pass to Armstrong, who touched it past Byrne to put the Mustangs up 4-3 with his fifth of the season.
"I saw Jordy coming in and I drove hard knowing he'd get it to me," said Armstrong of the goal, which would hold as the game-winner. "Sure thing, he slide it through two players right on my tape. I could've closed my eyes and still scored, he made that good of a pass."
Tilelli would be called upon once more in the final 1:38, making the final save in the waning moments as the Leopards pulled the goaltender and pushed for an equalizer. His final moment of brilliance came with 7.6 seconds left, when the Leopards outmanned the Mustangs in the crease but were not able to solve a sprawling Tilelli.
"Tony was a freak of nature tonight," cotinued Armstrong, who had scored four of his five goals in the third period this season. "If he didn't play the way he did it would've been a different outcome."
Tilelli stopped 34 of 37 shots in the victory while his adversary, Byrne, turned aside 20 of 24 in defeat.
"I felt great in net," said Tilelli, who improved his personal record to 5-2-0 on the year. "I made a few saves I'll probably never make again. Despite being down two we stuck with it and finished the comeback.
The Mustangs improved to 7-5-0 on the year, including a 4-2-0 mark at home. Central Maine went 0-for-3 on the power play, while Wentworth finished at 0-for-2. The final shot count was a lopsided 37-24 advantage for Wentworth. Central Maine will travel to the University of New England on Sunday before heading into the Thanksgiving break.
"This win felt great," said Tilelli. "The way the crowd was buzzing, the boys and I really fed off it. It was like nothing I've ever experienced."

Time flies! Hard to believe I first started writing on this blog three years ago. It was more then about time to give it a revamp and modernize the layout! Now blog and my personal website are unified under the same platform and appearance, and are now also much easier to modify and update, thanks to Jekyll, the engine that powers these pages.
Hope you find the new layout and style pleasant and easy to use/navigate. It was mostly done by me alone, so it is liable to have a few bugs ;).
Unfortunately, The old blogspot URLs are no longer valid, so there will be a few broken links, but hey, I don't really care about legacy :P.
The site is now hosted by GitHub Pages, which is very fast and responsive. Previously, I was using the shared GoDaddy hosting, which I'd now suggest that it should be avoided like the plague! Seriously, it would often produce 1 minute+ load times on a first access with empty Browser cache. Now GitHub Pages feels like if I'm accessing from my local hard drive, just light years faster than the crappy GoDaddy hosting.
Anyways, welcome to the new site, enjoy the visit!


Wandering in the tiny yet beautiful Hoi An town the UNESCO World Heritage Site, one may come across a bridge with elegant curves and elaborate decorations - the Japanese Bridge, which was built in the early 17th century by Japanese craftsmen who were part of a larger community of Japanese merchants active in this town. At that time, the bridge acted as a symbolic gesture of peace between the Japanese community and the Chinese quarter. Streets, shops, pagodas and houses were also constructed since then. But no one knows exactly who built this amazing work although it has been appreciated for centuries.
The bridge is renowned by its exquisite decorations. A pair of monkey and dog statue is placed at both ends for the bridge was started and completed in the year of the two animals. Porcelain bowls applied to endure the ends of the tile. There's a small shrine used to honor the northern deity Tran Vo Bac De who controls weather.
Two major streets of Hoi An's old quarter are connected by this 20-meter-long bridge above the serene Thu Bon River. You can easily find art galleries and cafes line both sides of the peaceful street beyond.
With some easy rides you can get to Thanh Ha Pottery Village and My Son Sanctuary. Foodies can also have their vibe here by attending a cooking class!

A northeast Iowa man accused of a murder in southeast Minnesota more than two years ago is scheduled to make his first court appearance today (Monday). Twenty-three-year-old Justin Meyer of New Albin is accused of killing 27-year-old Mark Sullivan in Caledonia in December of 2003. Sullivan was dating Meyer's ex-girlfriend at the time…and after the killing Meyer kidnapped her and their child and fled to Iowa. He was convicted and sentenced to life in prison for kidnapping and now Iowa officials have completed their paperwork to transfer Meyer to Minnesota, allowing the murder case to proceed.

The Bank of England (BoE) has been researching the possibility of launching its own digital currency to rival bitcoin, but fears about the impact on the wider financial system means it has no "current plans" to do so.
The central bank said it began examining the implications of digital currencies, the most famous of which is bitcoin, three years ago in 2015.
Trading in bitcoin prompted feverish activity last year. The price of one bitcoin rose above $19,000 (14,000) in the days before Chirstmas, but has slumped somewhat since then as is currently $13,500 (£10,050). At the start of 2017 one bitcoin was trading at just $1,000 (£737).
Today (4 January) the Bank of England told FTAdviser that it continues to research the topic of crypto-currencies like bitcoin, but any plans to launch its own digital currency were dropped amid concerns about the impact on the traditional banks.
If the central bank launched a digital currency of its own, it worried consumers would stop using commercial bank accounts and, instead, have a bank account with the Bank of England, and choose to use digital technology to purchase goods and services over paper money.
The central bank added it feared if there were a flurry of withdrawals from commercial banks in favour of using the Bank of England's crypto-currency, highstreet banks would not have the cash to pay all depositors, causing turbulence in the economy.
Bank lending would freeze up as the commercial banks would not have the cash to lend, and would be unable to borrow the money from other banks.
It also expressed concern about its ability to maintain financial stability through interest rate policy in a world of digital currencies.
The central bank believes that demand for traditional paper money is relatively "elastic", that is, it responds to changes in its price - the interest rate charged on it.
The Bank of England said it is unsure whether this elasticity would continue in a world of digital currencies, weakening the Bank's ability to maintain economic stability through the use of interest rates.
Primarily, if a central bank is concerned that debt levels in the economy are too high, it can put interest rates up, to weaken demand for borrowing, and incentivise people to save, which may prevent a debt fuelled bubble being created, and bursting.
If the central bank is worried that demand in the economy is too low, it can cut interest rates, which has the effect of making debt cheaper, to entice people to borrow more, and save les,, increasing the level of aggregate demand in the economy, which should boost growth.
The Bank of England added that it does not view the digital currencies currently in existence, such as bitcoin, as a threat to the stability of the financial system.

Chris wanted to get out-of-town for the weekend. We debated between Wilmington, NC and Charleston, SC throughout the week. We (I) settled on Charleston because I love the city and we have went in August (What were we thinking?) in the past.
The weather was beautiful-sunny, cool, and clear skies. I don't know why we ever went in the summer before…That dripping sweat life is not for me. Ever the photo taker, I took my Canon DSLR. Since I have a lot of pictures of the Holy City from past trips, I focused on doors, windows, and flowers.
On Friday, we checked out the neighborhoods around the Battery. I love old houses and architectural details (and pastels). Chris is a good sport about my obsession.
Note to self: Make reservations in Charleston. We struggled to find a spot to eat that night. Fleet's Landing had an 1.45 minute wait. Not today! We were able to walk into Toast and be seated because it is known for breakfast. I'll review their sweet tea chicken in another post.
We are Priceline aficionado's and scored a modern hotel room at the Marriott. Prices are much more reasonable in the Mt. Pleasant area so we usually stay on that side of the bridge. Side note: I don't recommend barn doors for bathrooms. It looked cool but it not practical for privacy.
Saturday was a perfect day. We hit the Tanger outlets and I found some great deals at J.Crew and Banana Republic. Chris, the pickier Montgomery, found nothing as per usual.
After checking out all the antique shops on King Street, we checked out The Grand Bohemian art display and took a break in The Mill House.
After leaving Charleston, we took the long way back through Georgetown, Murrell's Inlet, etc. The weather was a little cool for sitting on the beach but we enjoyed a very relaxing weekend. Charleston in the spring is gorgeous!
I love the pictures!!! The flowers and historic homes are gorgeous!
Thanks! Kids and barn doors would equal some slammed fingers for sure!

Manchester United Make £15m Bid in Signing PSV Eindhoven Star Memphis Depay
Memphis Depay Reuters
Manchester United are reportedly considering a move in signing PSV Eindhoven midfielder Memphis Depay in the summer transfer window.
The Red Devils appointed Louis van Gaal as their new manager for the next season. The Dutchman will take charge at Old Trafford after the end of the World Cup campaign with the Netherlands national side.
According to the Sun, the former Barcelona boss is a huge admirer of Depay after the 20-year-old impressed for both his club and country. Van Gaal handed the youngster his international debut for the Netherlands and he has now set his sights on bringing the winger to Old Trafford.
United are preparing a £15m bid to seal the deal for the Dutch international as he is set to be Van Gaal's first signing for his new club. Depay is already in the World Cup squad and will make it to the summer event in Brazil.
A source told the Sun that Depay would be at United sooner or later as the 62-year-old man is a big fan of the Dutch winger.
"Van Gaal really likes Memphis - he put him in his squad for the World Cup qualifiers when he was only a teenager. Now he's taking the kid to Brazil. No one would be surprised if he is on his way to United sooner rather than later," the Sun's source was quoted as saying.
The winger has featured in 32 league games for PSV, scoring 12 goals and managing seven assists in the process.
United veteran Ryan Giggs announced his retirement as a player and will be Van Gaal's No 2 from the next season. The Welshman's decision to end his playing career came as a surprise for Old Trafford favourite David Beckham.
"I'm surprised he's retired because he was still playing great. Physically he's still in great condition, to play for so many years at the top level you have to be," Beckham told Sky Sports.
"Now he has a new role at the club and it was great to see him walk out as Manchester United manager for those four games. When you've got someone like Giggsy, who all the players respect and all the fans love, it makes a huge difference."
"His role now has totally changed and I'm sure he will find it an easy transition because he takes things in his stride. Ryan's not affected by anything. He knows the club better than most people who are at Manchester United now," he added.
