Can we live in this world without being burdened by $1 trillion in student loan debt? We don't have jobs and those of us who do are afraid we won't, which means we aren't stimulating the economy by spending money. Wall Street got a bailout. Detroit got a bailout. Homeowners are getting bailed out. When are the people who earned degrees going to get bailed out?

Original Publish Date: || Thu, 12 Mar 2015 05:35:08 GMT || Gary Palmer, CEO of Paragon Lending Solutions joins CNBC Africa for more on S. African business owners looking to non-bank lenders for financing in 2015.
(www.abndigital.com) The government recently announced a R1 billion housing fund to help reduce South Africa's housing backlog. Industry players hope this may help create more innovative lending models to stimulate affordable housing. Joining ABN on the affordable housing finance market is Paul Jackson, CEO of the Trust for Urban Housing Finance.
President John F. Kennedy once said that success had many fathers, whereas failure was an orphan. One wonders what he would have made of today's Federal credit programs, a vast network whose obscure political origins have finally been laid bare by sociologist Sarah Quinn of the University of Washington. As Professor Quinn, an INET grantee, points out in the interview below, government-originated credit programs barely existed before the time of the Great Depression until, in 1934, the New Deal chartered the Federal Housing Administration to stimulate mortgage lending. It's hard to believe that within a generation, the FHA spawned 74 separate programs to bolster credit through guarantees, insurance or outright loans. But that's nothing compared to today. Uncovering securitization's connection to the vast network of federal credit programs in the postwar era, Quinn's research seeks to demonstrate how credit programs and securitization together distilled and then exacerbated core tensions running throughout U.S. history, tensions that emerged in the earliest days of the nation and then were crystallized in a fragmented federal government. The point, Quinn says, was nearly always the same: to camouflage, hide, or understate the extent to which the U.S. government actually intervened in the economy. But the problems went well beyond that. As many of the government's credit programs were partly privatized (with a view simply to getting them off the government's balance sheet, if not government care), they were authorized to issue securitized bonds, while encouraged private companies to do the same. The legislation created a system that increasingly encouraged people to take on more risks, and to feel more comfortable holding risks that they did not fully understand. We all saw the rotten fruits of that process in 2008. For one thing, many of these quasi-public companies, such as Fannie and Freddie, have acted like pure private companies, obscuring the social goals that underlay their inception, whilst using their government heritage to exploit the perception of an implied government guarantee for any loan, no matter how bad. It is a type of securitization that Paul Krugman has called, "lemon socialism", where profits are private and losses are socialized. Quinn sets all of this out in the interview and provides the historic context to explain how it happened. This is important because if we fail to understand the past, it's hardly likely that we can construct a future set of policies which avoids these problems going forward.
Anahit Misak Kasparian (Armenian: Անահիտ Միսաք Գասպարեան, pronounced [ɑnɑˈhid miˈsɑkʰ kʰɑsbɑˈɾjɑn]; born July 7 1986) is an American political pundit and the co-host and producer for the online news show The Young Turks. Kasparian began working as a fill-in producer for The Young Turks in 2007, and is now co-host of the main show and host of The Point on the TYT Network. She also appeared on the TV version of the show that aired on Current TV.
Born in Los Angeles, California, Kasparian is the daughter of Armenian immigrant parents and was raised in the Reseda community of the San Fernando Valley. Kasparian graduated from Valley Alternative Magnet High School of Van Nuys in 2004 and California State University, Northridge (CSUN) in 2007 with a Bachelor of Arts, Journalism (BAJ).
Kasparian was an assistant producer with CBS Radio news stations in Los Angeles, first with KFWB and then KNX. She has also worked with AOL News, YouTube, TidalTv and On Point. After becoming a fill-in host in April 2007, Kasparian became the producer and co-host with Cenk Uygur of the progressive talk radio on Sirius XM Satellite Radio and internet show/TV show The Young Turks. Kasparian says that young people are interested in news, but "they see network anchors as simply folks who read tele-prompters." She co-hosted TYT University, a show focused on issues faced by university students for some years, and now hosts another TYT Network show, The Point. Kasparian is an agnostic atheist.
The Young Turks (TYT) is an online American liberal/progressive political and social commentary program hosted by Cenk Uygur and Ana Kasparian; the show has an associated network of online shows and is owned by a company of the same name (The Young Turks LLC). TYT was founded in 2002 by Uygur as a talkshow on Sirius Satellite Radio.
The Young Turks claims to be "the world's largest online news show"; YouTube video views for the TYT Network stood at a total of 2 billion as of July 2014. The show offers internet-only video content via their YouTube channel, which in April 2012 averaged 750,000 views a day, and by November 2014 over 1,400,000 views a day. The Young Turks also have a network of other affiliated shows on separate YouTube channels, known collectively as the TYT Network.
From 2011 to 2013 a second show, called The Young Turks with Cenk Uygur aired on Current TV. After Current TV was acquired by Al Jazeera America, the TV show was discontinued.
The Young Turks as a show began when Cenk Uygur started a talk show similar to a public-access television cable-TV show he had done previously called The Young Turk. With the help of friend Ben Mankiewicz (with whom he had previously worked), his childhood friend Dave Koller, and Jill Pike, he began The Young Turks as a radio show in 2002 on Sirius Satellite Radio. The show's name derives from the English-language phrase "Young Turk", meaning a reformist or rebellious member of an institution, movement, or political party.
The Young Turks (Turkish: Jön Türkler, from French: Les Jeunes Turcs, or Turkish: Genç Türkler) was a political reform movement in the early 20th century, favoring replacement of the absolute monarchy of the Ottoman Empire with a constitutional monarchy. Later, their leaders led a rebellion against the absolute rule of Sultan Abdul Hamid II in the 1908 Young Turk Revolution. With this revolution, the Young Turks helped to establish the Second Constitutional Era in 1908, ushering in an era of multi-party democracy for the first time in the country's history.
After 1908, the Young Turks' initial umbrella political party, the Committee of Union and Progress (CUP; Turkish: İttihat ve Terakki Cemiyeti), began a series of modernizing military and political reforms across the Ottoman Empire. However, the CUP soon began to splinter as many of the more liberal and pro-decentralization Young Turks left to form an opposition party in late 1911, the Freedom and Accord Party (also known as the Liberal Union or Liberal Entente), with much of those staying in the CUP favoring a generally nationalist and pro-centralization policy. In a year-long power struggle throughout 1912, Freedom Accord and the remaining members of the CUP vied for control of the Ottoman government, the year seeing a rigged election by the CUP and a military revolt by Freedom and Accord.

Jokers & Fools (2012) Hardcover Paperback Kindle
Esri Allbritten is an American author of mystery and thriller books best known for her book series Gigi Chihuahua Mystery Series. After publishing several paranormal romance books, Allbritten then decided to switch to the genre that she loved reading most but intimidated to write-mystery and this led her to publish the Chihuahua of the Baskervilles series. Beside to crafting adrenaline filled novels, a good concept premise and good marketing hooks are the most vital tools for selling your work to a publisher. She now lives in Boulder, Colorado with her loving husband, their cat, and a Chihuahua.
Chihuahua of Baskervilles
You'll totally agree with other readers that the copy on the flap of Esri's series debut novel, Chihuahua of the Baskervilles is an uproariously funny and one that will sure to leave you in stitches. It's a story that features an original premise and quite a departure compared to other mystery books out there. There's a three-person team investigating mysteries all that are fascinating characters with great potentials for the series sequels. These characters fit well, and their conversations are funny and humorous as well. There are bits of historical details, and the author does a fantastic job of detailing the historical part without appearing historical.
So the story kicks off when Charlotte Baskerville, the owner of Petey's Closet a firm that designs clothing for small dogs suspects that she's seen the ghost of her beloved dog named Petey, a team of investigators from Tripping Magazine is sent to Manitou Springs to investigate.
Tripping is a magazine that profiles some of the travel destinations for those who have to believe in paranormal activities, and Angus MacGregor edited the magazine. Suki Oota, a retired photographer for the National Geographic, is the ideal person to capture the shots of ghostly images while Michael Abernathy is the new writer and graphic designer. But since the magazine was actually about to "end," this would be their final shot to revive the magazine and attract more readers.
When the team of investigators arrives in Manitou Springs, the discover Charlotte surrounded by folks who might not wish the best for her. One of the is a scheming man who lost his family, a dog trainer, a granddaughter who drinks, and a designer who's not happy with Charlotte for using her designs and a neighbor who wants Charlotte to sponsor her dog food business.
Any of these people might be plotting to upset the older lady who hears and sees her dog. Angus and her team of investigators have an interest in protecting the old woman. But who's in a better position to investigate a ghost that seems to leave clues and give advice than the Tripping Magazine team?
Along with Charlotte and Petey's story, the team also finds time to cover the peculiar town of Manitou Springs with its Memorial Coffin Race, the haunted Miramont Castle, Emma Crawford Festival and a café supposedly haunted. Petey's ghost story is one of the many in a town that would attract the avid readers of Tripping Magazine. It's fun to watch the team of investigators explores the small town of Manitou Springs, and these additional stories contribute to the charm of the book.
Chihuahua of the Baskervilles is a fascinating and lively story. Michael, Angus, and Suki work as a team, and they approach their investigations from different angles which add humor to the story. Esri Allbritten debut novel is a solidly written mystery, and the ghost stories of Manitou Springs are actual ghost stories of the town. So there are plenty of possibilities for the Tripping team that searches for haunted destinations and ghosts. The story offers a solid mystery, a good team of investigators, ghost stories and several possibilities for future locations.
The Portrait of Doreene Gray
In this second book in Gigi Chihuahua Mystery series, Angus MacGregor and his team of investigators from Tripping Magazine, a travel magazine specialized in finding paranormal destinations are up to a task of investigating a spooky story in a town filled with secrets.
Years ago, Maureene Pinter crafted a unique portrait of her twin sister, Doreene. But in a twisted turn of events, Doreene has not aged, even though the spooky portrait has. When Doreene decides it's time to sell the portrait, the Tripping investigators travel to her mansion in Port Townsend, a Victorian town in Washington to unravel the mysteries and get a scoop of this story.
But when mysterious strips of paper appear from nowhere in her soup, Doreene invites the investigators to stay and solve the puzzle. What does the housekeeper fear and why does Enrico Russo sit in a white Impala outside Doreene's house?
The Tripping team of investigators does a wonderful job in solving paranormal mysteries in Port Townsend. After finding their way inside a press conference for an upcoming portrait sale, Michael, Suki, and Angus are invited to stay and figure out the cause of the strange events. What follows next is the story of a bizarre family.
The three lead characters in the story are hilarious. While Angus is truly obsessed with relating every event to a supernatural cause, Michael is the exact opposite, with his intention being finding the facts and debunking mysteries associated with supernatural events.
Esri Allbritten has beautifully managed to uniquely tie together different storylines from dead husbands coming to life after three decades to secrets of a lineage to an intricate plot to steal an artifact into one entertaining narrative. The author leaves no stone unturned, and all the questions that arise are answered.
While the book series is referred to as Chihuahua mysteries, there are no little dogs involved as either investigators and they are not involved in the paranormal aspect of the story. The series is humorous, witty, logical in the most illogical manner. The investigating team, though mismatched rise up to the occasion and deal with glowing bones, slug infestations, people returning from the dead, altered portraits and so much more. If you are looking for a mystery that's light an funny, Chihuahua series is great to pick for you.

In her late teens Agatha Christie studied to be a classical musician but was too nervous to perform. She is the only crime writer to have created two equally famous and much loved characters - Hercule Poirot and Miss Marple and is the only female dramatist ever to have had three plays running simultaneously in London's West End.

Here is my full review of Hot Tub Time Machine. I password protect the post (password: SPOILER) to force you to make a very conscious decision to read it, in case you want to see the movie.
In a nutshell here is my opinion of the movie: I missed a NCAA March Madness game, and I miss my money; wait for this movie to hit the second run theaters or for it to appear on late night TV.

Q: What kind of a test is a "consistency check"? Some or all of the tests I write and run are checks for consistency e.g. assert that if I create a new user account, that the account that was created actually has the same name as the name that was submitted in the registration. And now for checking that I implemented a pagination correctly, I suppose I can check that for any given large resultset, getting the "next page", sometimes repeated times and not only once, will eventually lead to the same last page as getting the last page directly (which is done another way than stepping through one page at a time, going directly to the last page in done by using the reversed order and getting the first page from the reversed order.
In our projects we try to follow test-driven development but sometimes I think it is not exact whether a test is a unit test or an integration test when in fact both the integration tests and the unit tests are mostly or only "constistency checks". I didn't see any other type of test than for consistency (both the unit tests and the integration tests do assertions), but it seems that mocking is used more in integration tests than in unit tests and than a unit test is smaller and for a single component or method while an integration test is "larger", but that is still not an exact difference.
So what kind of a test is a consistency check?  Is it a unit test or an integration test?

A: I don't know if 'consistency check' is the appropriate name for the kind of tests you describe, really what you describe is simply just a test.
Whether or not it is a unit test or an integration test is really a function of the dependencies/state that the method under test has, and how those dependencies/state are managed.
With your example, if your method under test calls into some service and you mock or fake the service that it's using, then you're more likely writing a unit test. If you're using a legitimate implementation of the service then it's an integration test.
Similarly, if there is some kind of global or external state that your method under tests refers to and you mock/fake that, then you are again writing a unit test.
It's easy to think of the differentiation in the context of code coverage. If your test only covers lines in the method under test, and test code, then it's a unit test. If it covers other code, then it's an integration test (or an incorrectly written unit test).

A: To expand on Steven Evers' answer - I believe that Steven's definitions of unit and integration tests are correct and consistent with my understanding and experience. I've also heard the term "consistency check" before, but never in the context of a test.
When I've heard the term "consistency check", it's usually in the context of the running system. There are different types of checks. Validations are typically executed when something is created or modified and may be one form of consistency check. However, other consistency checks may run outside of these changes to ensure that the state has not changed. For example, a consistency check may check one or all records to make sure that they were not modified by an external application or human directly in the database. Consistency checks may also exist between systems to ensure that they share the correct representation of the state of the system and to indicate when they do not.

We took our first look at the decline of SSD prices back in June (See Image Below), illustrating the trend with a mountain of data tracing drives all the way back to early 2011. A full quarter has passed since that article, so it's high time for an update. To find out if prices have continued their downward trajectory, we once again called upon the gracious folks at Camelegg, who provided us with another data dump for analysis—this time with even more drives. Camelegg tracks prices at Newegg,, which is a pretty good indicator of prevailing market conditions.

… Worrying Does Not Empty Tomorrow of its troubles … it empties today of its strength.


I'm a Running Start transfer in my senior year at Western Washington University. Learning in WWU's inspiring and encouraging environment has allowed me to get involved in multiple extracurricular pursuits such as working in the WWU Writing Center, getting involved in various clubs and even trying my hand at writing a novel. I first heard about the Alumni Association Leader Scholarship from a coworker in the Writing Center. Because of my strong academic drive and enthusiasm for bettering the world around me, I hope to be a positive representative of the Western Washington University Alumni Association.
As is the case with many college students, financing a university education has been a struggle for my family. Having taken out a substantial amount of student loans, this scholarship is not only an incredible honor but also a great weight off of my shoulders as well as my parents'. It's a wonderful feeling to be able to worry that much less about being able to continue my education, and I'm extremely grateful.
I'm a huge book nerd (Game of Thrones, anyone?) and also really enjoy practicing yoga, going on hikes, song-writing and singing for my band, cooking (to the best of my ability) and watching old Disney movies with friends or family. I'm crazy about nature and love to get around in Bellingham's backyard when I have the chance, especially over the summer when everything is so green and beautiful!
One thing I've learned over the course of my past two years at Western is how successful I (or any student) can be as long as I keep the bar high for myself. Classes that at first seem impossible can be conquered with enough determination (or sheer stubbornness); if the class seems like it's going to stretch my capabilities to the max, I've found that I'm able to stretch along with it, simply because succeeding is the only option I acknowledge. While it's always important to be kind to yourself while in college and not go overboard with stress, be aware that you also have a boundless amount of potential just waiting to be tapped into.

New M1 smart cameras are now operating at East Midlands Airport
Here is how to avoid a fine
Annette BelcherStaffordshire Live Publisher
Drivers will be fined if they do not keep to the speed limit on a smart motorway
A new stretch of the M1 smart motorway near East Midlands Airport is now in operation.
This means new speed limits are now in place.
This section of the motorway - between junctions 23a (Nottingham/East Midlands Airport) and the approach to junction 24 (Derby) - now has four lanes and a hard shoulder.
The cameras have been switched on
This latest phase, which is part of works by Highways England, means there is now a variable mandatory speed limits in place.
Road closures now in place where M1 East Midlands smart cameras have been installed
Now that this part of the smart motorway is fully operational, here is some of advice on how to drive on it and how to avoid a fine.
What is a smart motorway?
The Smart motorway is when the hard shoulder is turned into an extra lane, which are monitored from a control centre, where staff use overhead signs on the route to warn drivers of any lane closures, speed restrictions or issues to keep the traffic flowing.
This also means that anyone travelling at more than 70mph could also land themselves with a hefty fine as they will be snapped by the 24-7 cameras there.
The smart motorway is being installed in a bid to keep traffic flowing on busy stretches, including the section around the airport.
How to drive on a smart motorway, according to Highways England:
never drive in a lane closed by a red "X"
keep to the speed limit shown on the gantries
a solid white line indicates the hard shoulder - don't drive in it unless directed.
a broken white line indicates a normal running lane
if your vehicle experiences difficulties, eg warning light, exit the smart motorway immediately if possible
use the refuge areas for emergencies if there's no hard shoulder
put your hazard lights on if you break down
Speed limits and will you be fined?
On a smart motorway, speed limits may appear lit up on overhead signals. These limits can be changed to help manage traffic at busy times.
New M1 smart motorway cameras have been switched on – this is where
A spokesman for Highways England said: "If no special speed limit is displayed then the national speed limit applies.
"A speed limit displayed inside a red circle is legally enforceable. If you don't keep to this speed limit, you are breaking the law.
"Speed cameras are in operation on smart motorways. If you don't keep to the speed limit, you may receive a fine."
More from Highways England about the East Midlands stretch:
"This section of the M1 is now operating as a controlled motorway, which includes four lanes and a hard shoulder, with the introduction of variable mandatory speed limits to manage the flow of traffic, reducing frustrating stop-start traffic conditions.
"The new technology installed will also give drivers better information to help with their journeys, while maintaining high levels of safety.

"The scheme has also introduced new CCTV cameras and electronic information signs and signals on gantries, which will show the variable mandatory speed limits and manage traffic flow and incidents."
Its statement continued: "The second phase will see the completion of the testing and commissioning of the newly installed signs and signals between junctions 24 and 25 to ensure the technology is operating reliably.
"In order to complete this work safely, temporary speed restrictions will remain in place between junctions 24 and 25 until March 2019, with the newly constructed emergency areas available for use.
"We will also continue operating our free recovery service within the all lane running section until the scheme is fully complete in the new year for the safety of our road users.
"The remaining works will be carried out in the new year under overnight lane and full carriageway closures when the road is at its quietest, in order to keep disruption to a minimum."

Q: How can I initialize the data to the DRAM in gem5? I'm new to gem5 and having a problem with initializing the data to the DRAM.
I want to preload the data in the hex file to the particular address on the DRAM.
Is there any way to do this?
I appreciate your help in advance.

A: DRAM in gem5 inherit the class AbstractMemory(abstract_mem.cc), the correponding .py provide a parameter called 'image_file' to initialize the memory.
So you can write the following code in the config file, such as se.py:
system.mem_ctrls[0].dram.image_file = /path/to/your/file

Only the binary data format file are supported, transfer your original hex file.


While my current job is considered white collar, I've worked my way up to this position including seven years as a union member. Until actually joining a union I was a big supporter of the concept. I was, however, completely unsatisfied with the union experience. In 1998 the company I worked for locked my union out for 11 weeks.
Julie and I lived together, she had a good job so we weren't too concerned with the lack of income. But without knowing how long this would last or even if I'd have a job after it was all over, we decided to plan for the worst.
You can't always live in fear that the worst will happen but you can't live as if nothing bad will ever happen either. You have to find balance between being prepared and enjoying life. At the time of the lockout I decided to test my will. I decided that other than fixed costs such as my mortgage and utilities, I wouldn't spend any money on discretionary items. That meant no eating out, no take-out, no movies or even video rentals (it was a long time ago). The lockout occurred just as winter was beginning and I had recently begun skiing, but until we were allowed back to work, there would be no skiing for me. I didn't buy any music or take any trips. I didn't spend money on anything unless I absolutely had to. This was not the easiest thing to do, to deny myself the little pleasures in life, especially with all the free time I had.
Over those 11 weeks, almost three months, I lost over $13,000 in income but when it was over and we returned to work, my bank accounts were lower by only $4,000. By the end of the lockout one co-worker declared bankruptcy and others were precariously close to calamity. I also know people who counted on the union winning an arbitration award that would give us back pay, but that never happened, and those who expected back pay were in much worse shape than those who assumed the money would never come.
The greatest lesson from this event was that I realized that I could live much farther below my means, that a sudden shock to my income such as a job loss, wouldn't be the end of the world. Can you say the same thing?
If you're serious about being prepared for the future, serious about doing what it takes to get much farther ahead in life, then you have to make a commitment to do whatever is necessary. You can get rich no matter what your income but the less income you have the more you'll have to do. Keeping track of your income and expenses is crucial, spending less than you earn is an absolute requirement. Discipline can be learned.
I found that the three months I was locked out, and my subsequent choice to eliminate discretionary spending, gave me the discipline I needed to really concentrate on building wealth. I call this time my three month test and I suggest that you might want to try the same thing.
That's right I'm asking you to stop spending money on anything other than essential items for three months. You obviously have to pay for your mortgage or rent, your utilities, groceries, and other necessities, but if you're serious then you have to give up everything else for three months.
Ok. I'll stop here and give you permission to do a trial run. Three months might be too much to ask and could just set you up for failure, but how about three weeks? Are you willing to try this out for three weeks to see if you have what it takes to really build wealth?
The rules are fairly simple. You can keep the services you currently have like cable, cell phone or magazine subscriptions. You can keep any recurring bills but you can't upgrade those services like the cable, for example. You can't add any channels, subscribe to any new websites, magazines or newspapers.
This test is not meant to see if you can live like Scrooge but it's also not meant to be easy. You've seen in the news the low paid worker who dies leaving behind millions of dollars? Well how do you think they got all that? Ok, you're right, they probably lived like misers but there can be a balance if you just try. After all, what good did that money do them now that they're dead?
This test might crimp your social life but that's the challenge. How can you still enjoy yourself for less money? That's the key to the test. Once you see that you can do it, you'll think twice before getting together with friends at a bar and instead invite them over to your place where the alcohol and food costs significantly less.
If you choose to take this test, and treat it seriously, you can find out a lot about your spending habits. You'll see how much that coffee at Starbucks is really costing you. You'll notice that stopping to get a donut on your way to work is a significant amount of money (and fat) over even three weeks. Oh yeah did I mention the other benefit? You might lose weight (if that's something you want) since you'll be either eating at home or not eating because even a quick stop at McDonalds is out the question for those three weeks.
Do you have what it takes to commit to a better future? Are you up to the challenge? I did it because I felt the pressure of not having an income for an unknown period of time but it turned out to be a great test. Now it's your turn – you can do it.

Sending Items Abroad with a Company you can Trust!
If you need to send goods overseas but you are not sure of the best course of action, look no further than Anglo Pacific's premier services for shipping goods abroad from the UK. If you are moving overseas, returning home or wanting to send a birthday gift to a friend across the water, we have you covered.
Ever since our inception in 1978, our international goods shipping solutions have consistently grown, evolved and now taken online to guarantee a convenient and immaculate service! We have grown to become one of the UK's leading goods shipping companies for personal and heavy goods shipping, and we now send around 20,000 consignments yearly.
Our process for sending items abroad is designed with your needs in mind, so you can send boxes, bags, suitcases and personal items with minimal effort.
Your work starts and ends with requesting an online quote or remote video survey. From your initial contact with Anglo Pacific, you will be assigned a shipping coordinator to manage your shipment of goods from the beginning.
Hauling extra suitcases and bags onto a flight is a strenuous and heavy inconvenience. Not only this, you will spend a lot of waster time at baggage drop-off and collection desks when you could be relaxing. Shipping goods abroad with Anglo Pacific eliminates this stress, frustration and time-wasting.
Regardless if you are sending items to nearby Malta, the party cities of Thailand or all the way down under to Australia, our services to send goods overseas are available to you!
Need Your Items Urgently? We Can Still Help!
Our access to road, sea and air freight vessels means we can work to your requirements, whether you want to save money or save time. If you need to send items abroad urgently, enquire about our air freight goods service today.
We are acclaimed by a number of recognised organisations for our services, giving our customers peace of mind. We are a FIDI Accredited International Mover, members of the British Association of Removers and bound by the BAR Advance Payment Guarantee Scheme to give you financial protection.
There are no limitations when shipping goods overseas from the UK with Anglo Pacific. We have the ability to send personal goods, household items, office or sports equipment to many European and international countries, towns or cities.
British foods, snacks and a common favourite – English tea!
Every country has its own list of prohibited and restricted items and we must act accordingly to these listings. However, if your chosen country permits it, we will send it as part of our service for shipping belongings overseas.
For customers who would prefer a full packing service, we are happy to oblige. A team of packing specialists will wrap your goods for safe delivery and pack them into strong moving boxes ready for shipping abroad. We will also create a full inventory to avoid any confusion at the receiving end.
We understand that some customers prefer to self-pack their goods for sending abroad, but we still provide packing materials to self-packers to make sure your items are fully protected on their journey.
You can never be too prepared when sending goods overseas. Leaving your packing until the last minute means you are more likely to forget something crucial and it also increases stress levels. You should start packing 6 to 8 weeks before your move so that you can pack in an orderly fashion and at a steady pace.
You must be concise sending items abroad and only take items that you NEED or that are of great sentimental value. Packing lightly makes the process easier for you and it also helps to keep the cost of shipping goods as cheap as possible.
You must wrap all precious, valuable and fragile items with packing materials such as corrugated card, bubble wrap and packing foam to lower the chance of damage. Examples of fragile items include pictures, china, mirrors, glassware, artwork and the likes.
A box or tea carton that is too big, or too small, will increase the chance of your goods being damaged in transit. Your moving boxes should always have a bit of space that should then be filled with packing foam to cushion the contents. If you are shipping heavy items you must be sure your moving box can hold the weight of its contents.
You should label your boxes for two reasons when sending goods overseas. The first and somewhat trivial reason is organising and unpacking your boxes will be much easier if you know which room each moving box should be in without needing to open the box. Labelling all boxes with your name, contact details and your new address will also mean they can easily be forwarded to you on the small chance they are misplaced.
We recommend creating an inventory as you pack so that you know exactly what you have packed, what should be delivered to your new address and to easily determine what – if anything – has been lost in transit.
We advise customers to pack a survival bag purely to make your life easier when you are tired and have just arrived in your new home. Your survival kit should contain items you might need – or want – upon arrival without having to venture to a supermarket. This can be household or personal goods such as toilet paper, a kettle, tea bags, toothpaste, toothbrush, medicine, box cutter etc.
The cost of sending goods with Anglo Pacific is always just and fair. Your quote is in-line with your unique shipment since we calculate our costs on three key factors; shipping method, load size and end destination.
Your items are packing into the corresponding size moving boxes and then we assess the quantity of these boxes; each size variant of tea carton has its own fixed price.
The shipping method you choose is another influential factor. We use one, or a combination of road freight, sea freight and air freight when sending items overseas.
The cheapest and most common method of shipping goods is sea freight. Your goods will be packed onto a shared or sole-use shipping container depending on the number of boxes. Shared shipping containers are the most economical method and ideal for anything less than small home loads.
For fast delivery of your goods, air freight is a viable option. The average delivery of air freight consignments is 7 to 10 days, in contrast to sea freights 6 to 8 weeks. This speedy service has a higher price tag and it is generally only used in emergency cases and for one or two boxes.
Your end location is also factored into your shipping goods quote; the further your boxes are being shipped, the higher the costs will be. For example, sending goods to Cyprus will be far cheaper than shipping items to Australia.
Your move coordinator will provide you with a full break down of costings before you agree to our shipping services, this is to make sure you are happy but also that you know where your money is being spent.
Shipping large items is a simple process with Anglo Pacific. Our commitment to providing a punctual and reliable service means our customers are satisfied each and every time. See what some of our past customers think in our international goods shipping reviews.

How To Get Tickets To Erika Jayne's 'Pretty Mess' Tour To Experience All The Glamour In Person
By Nina Bradley
There's no denying that Erika Girardi is one of most popular women in the Real Housewives universe. Best-loved as her alter-ego Erika Jayne, Girardi's pop-star persona consistently allures fans with her glamorous costumes and impressive dance moves. With a New York Times bestseller and a recent TED Talk now added to her impressive résumé, Erika Jayne's upcoming Pretty Mess tour is just the latest must-see event to come from the reality star — which means tickets are going to go fast.
In her first headlining U.S. tour, EJ will kick things off on Sept. 28 at the White Eagle Hall in Jersey City. During the tour's second stop on Oct. 5, she will perform at the Granada Theater in Dallas. Two days later, the Dancing With the Stars alum will take the stage on Oct. 7 at City Nights in San Francisco, and will then head to Los Angeles to play the Globe Theater on Oct. 14. She'll also be making stops in Chicago, Miami, Orlando, Atlanta, Nashville, Charlotte, Washington D.C., Boston, and ending the tour in Westbury, New York at the end of December. Tickets for the shows will start out at $40 for general admission, and go up to $250 for the "Diamond VIP Experience" which entitles fans to; early entrance into the venue, access to pre-show VIP soundcheck, a meet-and-greet with the reality star, complete with photos and autographs and a limited edition tour poster, according to PrettyMessTour.com
Entertainment Tonight on YouTube
Upon the tour's announcement, the "Xxpen$ive" singer told E! News,
"I'm so excited to get back on the stage this fall for the Pretty Mess tour! The best part of it all is finally getting to meet so many fans across the county. Get ready, my Pretties!"
It goes without saying that Erika is having on hell of a year. On top of the recently announced tour, the entertainer also made the New York Times Bestseller list with the release of her memoir, Pretty Mess. In April, she released a new song titled, "Cars." And earlier this month, it was revealed that she would be collaborating with ShoeDazzle to design her very own line of footwear.
In addition to those accomplishments, Erika is also gearing up to make her return to Real Housewives of Beverly Hills for Season 9, which she promised is going to have fair share of drama – per usual. While rehearsing in Jersey City for her U.S. tour, the 47-year-old pop star revealed to Entertainment Tonight that season's juiciest drama will revolve around none other than Dorit Kemsley. "Does anything not have to do with Dorit? I love Dorit, but damn!," Erika explained. Melodramatics aside, EJ's interview with ET also indicated that things may be better than ever between Erika and her fellow cast members when the show returns later this year.
She continued telling ET,
"I have to say this, because it's really true. For the first time in four years, I care about these women, like, I have friendships with these women, and I don't like it when I see them hurt and I don't like it when I see someone hurting them."
But don't expect to see the "ice queen's" chilly exterior thaw out anytime soon. "I'm an iceberg," Jayne told ET. She added, "Remember, the iceberg sunk the Titanic. Remember that."
Erika Jayne certainly has a lot on her plate these days, but as one of the biggest divas on reality TV, there's no doubt that she'll be able to handle it all with ease.
Editor's Note: This article has been updated to reflect new tour dates.

Time to heal old wounds
Pretoria - President Jacob Zuma will on Sunday join hundreds of people at a cleansing and healing ceremony in Taylor's Halt, Pietermaritzburg.
The Presidency said the event is aimed at thanking the community for working together to promote peace and unity, and encourage them to continue working together with government, to promote much-needed socio-economic development.
The greater Pietermaritzburg area was engulfed by devastating conflict during the 1980s and early 1990s which claimed hundreds of lives and left thousands of families displaced and emotionally scarred.
Zuma will be accompanied by among others, the Minister of International Relations and Cooperation, Maite Nkoana-Mashabane.
The President has just returned from Dar es Salaam, Tanzania where he attended the inauguration of that country's President Jakaya Kikwete.
Kikwete has been returned to office following last weekend's elections. Reports say he won just over 61 percent of the votes, beating candidates from opposition parties.

Icelandic names - everything you need to know
Find out about Iceland's quirky naming system and discover the places that inspire some of Iceland's most beautiful names.
Iceland's unusual naming system reflects the uniqueness of this spectacular land. An outlying island that rose out of the Mid-Atlantic Ridge in the wild North Atlantic, it's a place of thrilling geology and ethereal landscapes. No wonder Icelanders have a unique character - and an unfamiliar naming system for most of us. This is a country that combines a quirky culture, weird and wonderful landscapes and a chilled, laid-back people with a droll sense of humour (think Daði Freyr of Eurovision fame). Come and visit Iceland, and see for yourself. Join Reykjavik Excursions with a whole range of exciting [tours & activities in Iceland].
Where do Icelandic names come from?
To find the answer to this question you have to head back into the mists of time. The first records of genealogical and family history, 'The Sagas of Icelanders' or the 'Family Sagas' were written in Old Icelandic, a dialect of Old Norse set down between the 9th and 11th centuries. The names that appear in those great Icelandic sagas are still used today. The most famous of all is Ingólfur Arnarson, recognised as Iceland's first settler, his first name still given to Icelandic boys today.
The first settlers arrived primarily from Norway, then Sweden and Denmark, bringing with them their naming traditions. Based on the Germanic languages, many Icelandic names have the same roots as English German, Dutch and Scandivanian ones.Those first settlers also brought their Irish slaves with them, adding Celtic names to the mix.
Pre-Christian times, Icelandic names were Pagan. Paying homage to the great Norse deities, Icelanders would add the gods' names as a prefix or suffix. You still find Icelandic children called after these pagan gods today: Þór - Thor, God of Thunder; Freyja, the goddess of love and fertility; Sif, Goddess of Hunt and Harvest; Óðinn, God of War and Loki, the shape-shifting God of Mischief. Traditions changed when Iceland became Christian in the Year 1,000. Common names, Kristján and Kristinn may not be as exciting as the names of the troublesome Norse gods, but they reflected Iceland's new Christian faith.
So Icelandic names have their roots in Norse mythology, versions existing across Scandinavia, then Christianity with different forms of those Christian names existing throughout Europe. Nowadays, however, there are modern Icelandic names unique to Iceland's discrete culture and language. They often reflect Iceland's wild nature and dramatic landscapes.
Visit Þingvellir - Iceland's wilderness outdoor parliament
Þingvellir or Thingvellir National Park - what a location for a parliament! Wild and inhospitable, it came into existence in response to the too-powerful Ingólfur clan - the descendents of that first settler. To create a balance of power, a general assembly - 'the Alþingi' - was introduced in the Year 874, according to the Book of Settlements. From around the Year 930, members of parliament met from far and wide by the River Öxará to to put down Icelandic laws, making the Alþingi the oldest parliament in the world. The outdoor assembly continued right up to 1798, Þingvellir - meaning the Assembly Plains - was for sure an inspirational landscape in which to shape the future of a country. On the Golden Circle Tour you can visit this site, not just one of historic and cultural importance, but also great geological significance. Wander along the rift valley where the North American and Eurasian tectonic plates are slowly drifting apart. Combine your trip with other geological wonders: the Geysir Geothermal Area and Gullfoss Waterfall. And while you're at it, why not extend your trip to take in some of the other top waterfalls in Iceland?
How does Icelandic naming work?
Traditionally in Iceland, a new-born child takes the first name of their father alongside 'son of' or 'dóttir (daughter) of', depending on the child's gender. In the past, this tradition was not unique to Iceland. The naming system was also used in Scandinavia centuries ago, as well as in Celtic cultures, but in more recent times it has been replaced with fixed surnames that are passed down from generation to generation. Uniquely, Iceland has continued with the ancient tradition of naming a child after its parent's Christian name, the name changing with each new generation.
How does this ancient naming tradition work in modern Iceland? While the new-born is traditionally given the first name of the father alongside 'son or daughter of', increasingly the first name of the mother or even both parents are added. To ensure continuity of lineage, Icelanders often give their child the first name of a grandparent, a name that is handed down through the generations. Superstition plays a role too. If an expectant mother sees a relative in her dreams - particularly a deceased one - she may feel compelled to call her unborn child after that relative, fearing her child will come to harm otherwise.
But changes are afoot. Some Icelanders combine traditional naming with a family name of their own choice. In same-sex partnerships the parents may take the names of the two fathers or two mothers. Off-spring identifying as non-binary can use the suffix 'bur' - the neutral 'child of' rather than the gender-specific 'son of' or 'daughter of'.
Meet the daughters and sons of Iceland
Treat yourself to a combined Golden Circle & City sightseeing - Hop on, Hop off - Tour. Meet some 'of the sons and daughters' of Iceland in the city and at work at the Friðheimar Cultivation Centre where fruit and vegetables are grown organically with the aid of geothermal heat. Combine these cultural experiences with some of Iceland's awe-inspiring landmarks on the Golden Circle.
Do all Icelandic last names end in son or dóttir?
Almost always, yes. There are a few exceptions, usually for the children of incomers. In Iceland, a person is called by their first name in both formal and informal situations, or sometimes addressed using both names. As family names generally don't exist, the last name (son and daughter of) is never used on its own. Sometimes, Icelanders adopt a middle name for clarification.
The naming tradition is about protecting Iceland's heritage and linguistic identity with its complex grammatical rules for names. In fact, the Icelandic Naming Committee states the name should be able to have a genitive ending or have been adapted through custom in the Icelandic language. Secondly, it must be adaptable to the structure of the Icelandic language and spelling conventions. Sounds complicated? Only as complicated as the Icelandic language.
Why don't Icelanders have family names?
Traditionally, there are no family names in Iceland. Iceland is keen to hold onto the old patronymic (increasingly matronymic) custom whereby the child is given its father's or mother's Christian name and is referred to as the son or daughter of. Iceland is a country that values tradition and customs and has a strong sense of family. But it also means there's no family lineage carried down through a single surname. You would imagine Iceland's naming system would make it difficult to trace a family tree. Not so. The Book of Icelanders - 'Íslendingabók' is used to trace genealogy and dates back well over a thousand years. In fact, it's probably easier for Icelanders to trace their family tree than people from other countries. The extensive database, the relatively small population and a keen interest in family heritage - pretty much a national obsession - means the population keeps well up-to-date with their family lineage.
Iceland's year-round charms
When is the best time to visit Iceland and meet the people of this chilled and chilly island? Simply put, there isn't one. Come in summer for warmer temperatures. Visit later in the year for a tour of the Northern Lights - the dance of the night sky. Winter's ice and snow cover this already magical landscape in enchanting blues, silvers and whites. Spring brings the light. Want to hike on a glacier or alongside a smouldering lava field, swim through the waters between the drifting-apart tectonic plates, soak in a hot stream or watch the aurora? Check out this guide to the best time to visit Iceland for more information.
Do all Icelandic names mean something?
Names in Iceland often have a poetic feel to them. They might even contain a story. Some Icelanders are called after colourful Norse gods. Others are named after a mountain, volcano or even a feeling. Not surprisingly, nature is central to Icelanders - geysers, hot springs, volcanoes and glaciers all make their presence felt in this land of fire and ice. Hekla and Katla, two well-known female names, are named after two of Iceland's most notorious volcanoes. You can find out why volcanoes are an ever-present force in Iceland in this guide to Iceland's volcanoes and how they have impacted on the island's population over the centuries. No wonder they creep into names! As you'd imagine snow and ice also figure in Icelandic names. Jökull, meaning glacier, is a male name in Iceland. Jaki means ice-berg. Íseldur combines ice and fire to create the perfect Icelandic name. To discover why glaciers, snow and ice inspire Icelandic names check out this ultimate guide to glaciers in Iceland.
The Icelandic Naming Committee
'What's in a name?' to quote Shakespeare. Well, everything, if you are Icelandic. You can't give your child any old name in Iceland. And if you come up with a brand-new name, it has to be run past the Icelandic Naming Committee, established relatively recently in 1991. Would the Icelandic Naming Committee have accepted Bob Geldof's Fifi Trexi-Bell or Frank Zappa's Moon Unit, Dweezil, Diva Thin Muffin, Apple Martin and Blue Ivy? Probably not. In fact, the naming rules stipulate the name submitted for consideration should not cause the newborn future embarrassment. A thoughtful and kind gesture from the naming committee that perhaps should be extended to other countries! Hel, Ruler of the Underworld and Skessa, a female troll, are just two such proposed names that have been rejected in the past. The committee is also thorough: approved middle names, although not common in Iceland, are listed separately from first names, and they can't be used interchangeably. The kindness continues: If the child has a parent who is not an Icelander, they are allowed to have one name that might not be on the approved list of names.
Ultimately, there are mixed feelings about the Icelandic Naming Committee. While it strives to protect Icelandic naming traditions, others argue not being able to give your child the name you want is against basic human rights.
The power of a name - the power of nature on Reykjanes Peninsula
You can see why Iceland's landscapes play a part in Icelandic names. The power of a name - the power of nature - can be experienced on this combined tour of Volcanic Wonders & The Blue Lagoon. Visit Reykjanes Geopark, dividing two continents, the boiling mud pools of Seltún and the steaming lava fields. Experience volcanic craters, windblown palagonite and petrified troll formations. Hike up to Fagradalsfjal, Iceland's newest volcano and walk between two continents before finishing at the Blue Lagoon. Here you'll feel the ground beneath you move - not just because of the intense blue of the lagoon but also because of the bubbling water and boiling steam rising up from the earth.
What are the most common Icelandic Names?
Kristín and Anna, Margret and Guðrún have all been enduring choices for girls since the arrival of Christianity in Iceland and Jón and Magnús for boys . Kristin and Kristján take the prefix of Christ, Guðleifur and Guðfinna the prefix of God. But Old Norse names have also endured. The names of the Norse gods Loki, Óðinn, Sif and Þór are common names for children to this day.
Common names also reflect Iceland's inspirational nature: the female Hrefna is shared with the minke whale. Popular names are linked to the birch trees of Iceland: Birkir, Bjarki and Björk especially. Other popular names refer to birds and flowers. Names with the prefixes Sæ- and Haf- are also common, meaning sea or ocean.
Don't limit yourself to the Golden Circle on a trip-of-a-lifetime to Iceland. Take a tour of Iceland's wildest and most scenic corners. Check out this list of must-see places in Iceland for inspiration. Don't miss the opportunity to go whale watching from Akureyri on the north coast. Look out for Eyjafjord humpbacks with expert whale-watching guides.
Fun facts about the Icelandic Naming System
• Icelanders don't change their surname on marriage, making divorce less complicated.
• If you live in Iceland but are not Icelandic, you can choose from a list of given names that don't contain those tricky alphabet letters and accents. You can't go wrong with Ari, Hilmir and Nói for boys, or Lukka, Lind and Sunna for girls. Once again the Icelandic Naming Committee is very helpful. It makes life just that bit easier for non-Icelandic relatives too.
• Icelandic names often reflect the character of the newborn - or at least the characters the parents would like for their child. Even the thirteen Yule Lads have names that reflect their characters: Hurdaskellir is the 'door-Slammer', for example, or Kertasnikir, 'the (candle) thief'.
• Chosen names should not contain letters that don't appear in the Icelandic alphabet (with occasional exceptions).
• Some Icelandic names perfectly capture the dark beauty of Iceland's landscapes. Take Sindri, meaning 'gloomy' or 'to glow - or Sæunn meaning 'ocean wave' or 'she who cares for the sea'.

Ocean waves on the south shore
The north Atlantic island is in turn battered and caressed by the ocean. No wonder there are Icelandic names paying homage to the sea. You too can discover the power of Iceland's waters. Take a tour of Iceland's South Shore, the black beach, raging surf and basalt columns at Reynisfjara. Continue on to Jökulsárlón Glacier Lagoon with its sculpted ice-bergs bobbing on Atlantic surf or scattered along the striking black Diamond Beach. The guide to Jökulsárlón Glacier Lagoon will tell you everything you need to know about this enchanting corner of Iceland.
With all its wonderful cultural and geographic idiosyncrasies, Iceland is a fascinating destination. Start planning for a unique holiday. Head over to Iceland tours from Reykjavik for inspiration.

The Portable Thoreau
Author: Henry David Thoreau
Category: Literary Collections
An updated edition of Thoreau's most widely read works Self-described as "a mystic, a transcendentalist, and a natural philosopher to boot," Henry David Thoreau dedicated his life to preserving his freedom as a man and as an artist. Nature was the fountainhead of his inspiration and his refuge from what he considered the follies of society. Heedless of his friends' advice to live in a more orthodox manner, he determinedly pursued his own inner bent-that of a poet-philosopher-in prose and verse. Edited by noted Thoreau scholar Jeffrey S. Cramer, this edition promises to be the new standard for those interested in discovering the great thinker's influential ideas about everything from environmentalism to limited government. For more than seventy years, Penguin has been the leading publisher of classic literature in the English-speaking world. With more than 1,700 titles, Penguin Classics represents a global bookshelf of the best works throughout history and across genres and disciplines. Readers trust the series to provide authoritative texts enhanced by introductions and notes by distinguished scholars and contemporary authors, as well as up-to-date translations by award-winning translators.

Ragged Dick and Struggling Upward
Author: Horatio Alger
From the 1860's through the 1890s, Horatio Alger wrote hundreds of novels to teach young boys the merits of honesty, hard work, and cheerfulness in the face of adversity. As Carl Bode points out in his introduction, Horatio Alger filled a void in American literature and met scant competition both in the nature and the number of his works. Like his heroes, Alger rose to the top by chance, coincidence, and hard work. The hero of Ragged Dick is a veritable "diamond in the rough"—as innately virtuous as he is streetwise and cocky. Immediately popular with young readers, the novel also appealed to parents, who repsonded to its colorful espousal of the Protestant ethic. Struggling Upward, published nearly thirty years later, followed the same time-tested formulas, and despite critical indifference it, too, had mass appeal. For more than seventy years, Penguin has been the leading publisher of classic literature in the English-speaking world. With more than 1,700 titles, Penguin Classics represents a global bookshelf of the best works throughout history and across genres and disciplines. Readers trust the series to provide authoritative texts enhanced by introductions and notes by distinguished scholars and contemporary authors, as well as up-to-date translations by award-winning translators.
