By the time Johnny Leonard Roosevelt Martin had celebrated his sixth birthday, the Oklahoma native had not only made it to the Major Leagues but hit for a .300 average, led the St. Louis Cardinals to a World Championship and turned in one of the greatest postseason performances in baseball history.
Of course, Martin, who went by the nickname "Pepper," was only six years old in the sense that he was born on a Leap Day, Feb. 29, 1904. That meant that by the time he helped the Cardinals defeat the Philadelphia Athletics in the 1931 World Series, his "true" birthday had occurred just six times.
In reality, Pepper Martin was a 27-year-old standout that year, at the start of a prolific career with the Redbirds that would include two world titles and four All-Star appearances.
Called the Wild Horse of the Osage for his aggressive style of play, Martin attacked the game with a style similar to Ty Cobb and Pete Rose, though injuries prevented him from enjoying the lengthier career of either of the latter two players, both Hall of Famers.
A key member of the Cardinals' Gashouse Gang that included such standouts as Frankie Frisch, Dizzy Dean, Joe Medwick and Leo Durocher, Martin posted a career .298 batting average and a .443 slugging percentage.
Perhaps his greatest season was his first full campaign in the big leagues, 1931.
Despite beginning the season on the bench, Martin took over as a starter midway through the year and ended with a .300 batting average, seven home runs and 75 runs batted in to help the Cardinals clinch the 1931 National League pennant by 13 games over the New York Giants.
History be damned, let's sell some beer!
No one would dispute that a bit of "creative license" is to be expected when it comes to advertising.
Few distort reality with more regularity and aplomb than American brewery companies.
These are the folks that would have you believe that the low-grade swill they pump out daily in quantities equivalent to that of a supertanker is a full-bodied, uniquely brewed, refreshingly satisfying beer.
In reality once you're of legal drinking age you quickly come to the realization that not only do the ads in question leave a bit to be desired in terms of promises versus reality, but that you're reluctant to even dump the slop in question into the steaming radiator of a rusting '63 Studebaker Lark for fear the suds will eat their way through the cooling system.
Indeed, it would seem that the more a beer ad promises and the more effort the company puts into selling its product, the lower the quality of the brew.
How prideful was the Renaissance painter Tintoretto? He once turned down a knighthood from French king Henry III because, it is said, he did not want to kneel down.
The 16th-century Venetian master, who was so productive that he was known as Il Furioso, is the subject of an exhibition that opened in Rome this past weekend.
The exhibition, which follows the painter's career from his days as an ambitious disciple of Titian to a bitter old age, focuses on the three main themes that distinguish the artist's work: religion, mythology and portraiture. It runs through June.
Tintoretto, born in 1518, owed his nickname to his father who was a manufacturer of dyes ("tinta" in Italian). He became one of the greatest practitioners of the Venetian style.
The exhibition begins with one of his monumental works "The Miracle of the Slave," painted in 1548 and measuring 14 feet by 18 feet.
More than 90 years after first enlisting, a 112-year-old Polish officer has been promoted to captain.
Poland's Defense Ministry said on Friday that Józef Kowalski, a veteran of both the 1919-21 Polish-Soviet War and World War II, had been promoted from lieutenant to captain.
In a statement, the ministry said that Defense Minister Tomasz Siemoniak visited Kowalski in a nursing home in Tursk, in western Poland, on Thursday to award him his promotion, according to The Associated Press.
Kowalski was born Feb. 2, 1900, in what was then the Austro-Hungarian Empire. He fought in a Polish cavalry unit formed during World War I, the 22nd Uhlan Regiment, but given that Kowalski is not listed as a veteran of the Great War, he apparently did not see action during the bloody 1914-18 conflict.
Kowalski is listed as the only survivor of Poland's victorious war against Bolshevik Russia, which broke out in February 1919. It said that after the war he studied at a cavalry school but chose to return to his family farm.
The Polish-Soviet War pitted the newly formed Soviet Russia and Soviet Ukraine against the Poland and the Ukrainian People's Republic.
Ask the average western world resident what they know about the rare earth elements and you'll likely get either a blank stare or painfully vague recollections from high school chemistry.
Yet, the 17 elements that are classified as rare earths are critical to manufacturing a wide variety of high-tech products, everything from missiles and computer hard drives to iPods and cell phones.
Which is why China's call this week for greater use of rare earths for its own domestic manufacturing – a de facto admission that Beijing seeks to limit exports of the vital resource – is bad news for technology-dependent nations such as those in North America and the European Union.
China is the world's largest producer of rare earths, producing more than 97 percent of the world's supply, according to CNN.
Its move to dictate production and exports have raised a global outcry, according to Agence France-Presse.
Beijing's goal is to boost the use of rare earths in its own high-end manufacturing, said the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology.
The nation will "give full play to China's dominant position of rare earths resources to expand the scale of the rare earths new materials industry," it said in a development plan for 2011-2015 posted on its website late Wednesday.
A Viking sword dating back more than 1,000 years has been found in Norway.
Construction workers building residential homes in the village of Melhus, in central Norway, recently unearthed what is being described as an "unusually well-preserved Viking sword," possibly from a grave site.
The site developer then contacted archaeologists from the Museum of Natural History and Archaeology, part of the Norwegian University of Science and Technology in nearby Trondheim.
Museum officials confirmed that the piece is indeed a Viking weapon, what is classified as a Type H sword, and likely dates from between 800 and 950 AD.
The H sword is well-preserved and experts are very enthusiastic about the discovery, according to The Foreigner, an English-language Norwegian media outlet.
Of the more than 200 H swords recovered, about seven of every 10 have been double-edged weapons.
A descendant of a chieftain's son kidnapped from Africa and sold into slavery in Massachusetts more than 250 years ago will become the first black member inducted into a North Carolina chapter of the Sons of the American Revolution this weekend.
Chaz Moore, 30, is a descendant of Toby Gilmore, the son of a chieftain in coastal West Africa who was kidnapped at 16 and sold into slavery in Massachusetts. He gained his freedom after fighting for American independence against the British.
Moore, a native of Worcester, Mass., only recently learned he had an ancestor who had joined the Colonists' side during the Revolutionary War.
Moore has been a Raleigh firefighter for about five years. On Saturday, he'll become the first black inducted into the North Carolina chapter of the Sons of the American Revolution in a ceremony at the state Museum of History, according to The Associated Press.


Had an enjoyable christmas lunch at my sis's place. It's such a nice feeling to have 8 of us plus little Dawn around the table. I realised I enjoy this more than anything else. It's just amazing to have lots of conversation, warmth and food all at the same time.
Dawn was busy posing for the camera with my elder sis on this warm christmas day.

Robert Lambert was third in the first round of FOGO FIM Speedway U21 World Championship 2019, which was held in Lublin (Poland). Brit got 14 points and is currently 4th overall.
Lambert is one of the favourites to dethrone Bartosz Smektała and reach for the title. Brit has already won both silver and bronze in the junior championship and this year's series is his last chance to reach for the highest aim. Ahead of the round in Lublin, Norwich-born rider had been put as the top favourite to win it as he represents local Speed Card Motor Lublin. And it all started great for him as he was piling up the points, however tumble in heat no.16 got him into some trouble.
- It was a good meeting. I had a good start, but after the tumble I wasn't so confident to go into the corners so deeply, which resulted in my scores in the semi-final and the final heat. I'm happy with this podium spot and the points I gathered. It puts me in a good situation before the next round.
Second round will be taken in Güstrow (Germany). For Lambert, it's a great information, not only because of local fans, among whom, he's got lots of supporters, but also because of his results he's been having at this track. Two years ago, he was second in the U21 World Championship there and one year back, he won the SEC round.
- I'm really happy with having the second round in Güstrow, where I can count on fans' support. It gives me this extra boost to fight. In some sense, it's like a home track for me, I have some great memories from there. I hope to get a good result - Lambert ended.

Title's defender, Bartosz Smektała was second in the first round of FOGO FIM Speedway U21 World Championship, which was held in Lublin (Poland). Polish rider admits that Saturday's meeting was far from being a good one for him.
Gleb Chugunov won the first first of U21 World Championship, which was held on Saturday in Lublin (Poland). Russian gathered 17 points and became the leader of the series.
World's best juniors started the run for gold in Lublin. Fans gathered at the stadium were looking forward to watch another good meeting this year. Ultimately, it was Gleb Chugunov, who conquered Lublin and became the leader of this year's series.
In Lublin, the cinder potential has been evident for a long time, and the local environment creates a perfect climate for the development of black sport. The city still has euphoria after the return of the local team to the highest league in Poland, and the fans count down the days to the next meetings. At Aleje Zygmuntowskie, however, not only league emotions will be hosted, because in the second half of June the first of the three finals of the Individual Junior World Championships will take place here.
Dominik Kubera will take part in the finals of the Individual Junior World Championships for the third time in a row. The Pole is gradually climbing up the general classification and now he would certainly like to try to get involved in the fight for medals.

The problem of initial singularity in cosmology, beyond the technical aspects, set the insurmountable limits of every description purely dynamics of the universe. In this brief note we present the main conceptual aspects of the Archaic Universe cosmological program. The adoption of a de Sitter pre- space as a structure of the quantum vacuum allows you to rethink the problem of time in cosmology by the relationship between the archaic non-local phase and the local observable Universe.

Q: Does scala specification 2.10 and 2.11 exist? I have visited scala official site so there is only one link to pdf specification. And this specification about scala 2.9. Is there documents for 2.10 and 2.11 scala versions? I mean full pdf's for each version?

A: No. (October 2014, that starts to change: Scala 2.11 spec)
Original answer (August 2014)
It is in the work though, as mentioned last February, just not "as pdf":

We are working on an updated spec, hopefully in markdown format so that contributions are made simpler.
  A spec is IMO an essential thing and at the same time I realize it's not nearly in the state I would like it to be.
  I do have a lot of hope that sometimes in the near future we can reach a point where the spec is more complete and it and the compiler are pretty much in agreement. But it will take work and time to get there.

(Martin = Martin Odersky, who designed the Scala programming language)

Jörg W Mittag adds in the comments:

Note however that some larger language changes have SIPs (Scala Improvement Process), which include a somewhat-formal specification. E.g.

*

*SIP-13: Implicit Classes,

*SIP-15: Value Classes,

*SIP-18: Modularizing Language Features.

As mentioned in Langley's answer, Scala 2.11 has an html spec.

A: There is currently (10/8/2014) a spec for 2.11 in html form here: http://www.scala-lang.org/files/archive/spec/2.11/

For the 13th consecutive year, the Spring captive insurance team is heading to Burlington, Vermont to sponsor and speak at the Vermont Captive Industry Association (VCIA) annual conference.
This year, the Spring VCIA contingent consists of Karin Landry, John Cassell and Prabal Lakhanpal. The event will be held at The Sheraton Hotel and Conference Center in Burlington Vermont. VICA regularly attracts hundreds of industry professionals from across the globe.
Spring is proud to once again be a conference exhibitor. If you are heading to the conference, be sure to stop by our booth (#2) and say hi. We will be handing out plenty of goodies throughout the day and you will not believe what we are giving away this year as a raffle prize!
We are also very excited that members of Spring's team will be participating in two educational sessions at VCIA this year. Managing Partner Karin Landry will be presenting a session titled "Captive Re-Feasibility Studies: Remake of a Classic." In this session Landry and her co-presenters will examine the importance of conducting refeasibility studies on existing captives periodically and how to do so.
Spring Senior Partner, John Cassell will also be presenting at VCIA this year. Cassell's session, titled "The Original Employee Benefit Captives: Where are they Now? " is a discussion centered on Spring's recent survey of the "pioneers" of benefit captive funding and how these original companies have fared years later.
VCIA runs from August 9-11. For more information on the VCIA conference can be found on their website.


Rear-End Car Accidents are one of the most deadly types of unintentional accidents in the U.S., killing 33,561 people in 2012 according the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration and injuring thousands more. The NHTSA report indicates that there were 1,934 fatal rear-end accidents in the U.S. in 2012.
You may be eligible to recover compensation if you've been injured in a rear-end car accident. A lawyer at our firm can help you pursue compensation for your damages.
wet or otherwise slippery conditions of the road.
and, mental or physical impairment of the driver, such as intoxication.
Additionally, a rear-end car accidents may occur because the driver who caused the crash was distracted by things such as music, talking on a cell phone, eating, passengers in the vehicle, and more. In other cases, faulty brakes may also be to blame for a rear-end collision.
Rear-end Car Accidents: Who's liable?
In New York, the traffic laws assume that a driver who hits another driver is responsible for the collision occurring unless special circumstances are present. As such, if you are involved in a rear-end collision in the state of New York, the driver who hit you will most likely always be liable for the accident. An exception might be if the lead vehicle cut off the other vehicle and suddenly braked, not allowing enough time for the trailing vehicle to react.
While your first option to recover compensation is your no-fault coverage, if you suffered serious injuries or if your damages exceed policy limits, you may file a liability claim with the at-fault driver.
In these cases, you'll need to demonstrate the other driver is liable for your injuries. You'll also need to prove the value of your injuries, or how much money is required to correct the financial burden you're to bear as a result of the accident.
Proving negligence and liability isn't always easy. As such, it's important to consult with an attorney to discuss the merits of your case, what types of compensation you may be eligible to recover, and what documents and information you'll need to prove the liability of the other driver and recover fair compensation for your damages.
Gacovino, Lake & Associates, P.C. is waiting for your call. For attorneys who are knowledge in rear-end accident law in New York and who will help to guide you through the claims process, don't hesitate any longer. Call us today at 800-550-0000 to get started on your free case consultation.

Texas State Fair sets food, ride sales record
DALLAS (AP) — Organizers say this year's State Fair of Texas set a new record for food and ride sales, with more than $42 million in coupons sold.
The fair said in a statement that the previous record was $37.3 million worth of coupons in 2010.
Temperatures that were largely mild and few storms helped bolster the 24-day event, which wrapped up Sunday. It's been held since 1886.
Among the new attractions this year was an exhibit featuring some memorabilia from the Texas Sports Hall of Fame. The livestock department also had 12 percent more territory for exhibitors than in 2013.
The fair offered $3 admission to visitor bringing three cans of food on Wednesdays, and collected more than 240,000 pounds of food. That was an 18 percent increase from last year.

Ferrari confirm Felipe Massa's contract extension to 2013 // Massa secures another year with the Scuderia

This is F1Minute - Ferrari confirm Felipe Massa's contract extension to 2013.
After speculation and rumours over their second seat began yet again, Ferrari took to their website to confirm they have renewed their contract with Felipe Massa to the end of next season.
The statement from the team says very little, but boss Stefano Domenicali expands on their thoughts, saying: "He's been part of our family for over a decade and has shown, especially in the latter part of the season, to be competitive at the highest levels, as we expect every driver to be behind the wheel of a Ferrari." He added that they've always supported him, even during the tricky moments, and so they expect him to repay their trust.
For his part, Felipe is, of course, happy to have another year with the team. He says: "I'm delighted with this agreement. Ferrari is my sports family and I've always raced in F1 driving engines built at Maranello. Both the team and the fans can be assured that I'll do all in my power to help the Scuderia to achieve the goals that arise every year."

Bernie Sanders Spoke Up for Suffering Palestinians, but Few in Broadcast Media Covered It
Far away from AIPAC, Bernie Sanders made a dissenting speech in Salt Lake City, where he spoke up for suffering Palestinians. It received little broadcast media attention.
Zaid Jilani
March 22 2016, 5:56 p.m.
As leading presidential candidates spoke at the Washington gathering of the American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC), promising support and a crackdown on boycotts of Israel, Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders made a dissenting speech in Salt Lake City, where he spoke up for suffering Palestinians. It received little broadcast media attention.
As Sanders trails Clinton in delegate count, his campaign has effectively been discounted by major media.
The speeches in Washington featured comparisons between the boycott movement and anti-Semitism ( Hillary Clinton), claims that the Palestinians were part of a "culture of death" (John Kasich), promises to shield Israel from U.N. intervention (Donald Trump), and vows to cut off federal funding to universities that boycott the Israeli occupation (Ted Cruz).
In a speech from Salt Lake City, which had been offered as a telecast to AIPAC — an offer that was denied — the Vermont senator reiterated his support for Israel's security. He also insisted that "peace also means security for every Palestinian. It means achieving self-determination, civil rights, and economic well-being for the Palestinian people."
Sanders called it "absurd" for Israel to pursue more settlements in response to violence. "Peace will also mean ending the economic blockade of Gaza," he said. "And it will mean a sustainable and equitable distribution of precious water resources so that Israel and Palestine can both thrive as neighbors."
While objecting to rocket attacks by Hamas, he also reiterated that he "condemned the [Israeli] bombing of hospitals, schools, and refugee camps." He insisted that while Israel is a friend to the United States, "as friends, we are obligated to speak the truth as we see it. This is what real friendship demands, especially in difficult times."
Watch Sanders's Middle East speech below:
Sanders's address stood out in contrast to the remarks from the other four major party candidates left in the race.
Yet a query using the TV Eyes broadcast media search engine found that the text of the speech was mentioned only in a handful of outlets. Unlike the addresses by Clinton and Trump, no major broadcast outlet carried it live. CNN International read a section of Sanders's prepared remarks in a segment with writer Peter Beinart, a frequent critic of Israeli settlements; Al Jazeera America read a portion of Sanders's remarks in commentary on the speeches at AIPAC. BBC World played a portion of Sanders' speech dealing with the need to be friends to both Israel and the Palestinians. Although MSNBC did not cover the speech or its content, Hardball with Chris Matthews featured former U.S. ambassador Marc Ginsberg to explain Sanders's absence at AIPAC by saying, "Mr. Sanders … has never really extolled his jewishness, much less any support for Israel."
Sanders did get a chance to expand on his views on the issue during a sit-down interview with MSNBC's Chris Hayes and a CNN town hall. In both cases, the topic was discussed only briefly. "Overwhelmingly, the United States has time and time again looked aside when Israel has done some bad things," he said during a two-minute segment with Anderson Cooper.

New York City, Public Transit, subway
Second Avenue Subway Progress Versus Rest Of The World
November 3, 2015 penneyvanderbilt	3 Comments
The Europeans love their trains, but as station managers, they face nothing like the Japanese challenge: Shinjuku Station in Tokyo sees some 3.6 million souls pass through its doors on an average day — more than the entire sum of daily passengers on the London Underground. Shinjuku Station, even more so than Frankfurt's Hauptbahnhof, conforms to the famous, frequently cited, and even more frequently ignored advice given by Metro de Madrid boss Manuel Melis Maynar on the subject of building efficient transit systems: "Design should be focused on the needs of the users, rather than on architectural beauty or exotic materials, and never on the name of the architect."
The "starchitect" is almost always and everywhere the enemy of the public good, but American public planners, keenly aware that despite its many charms Philadelphia is in reality no Paris, have a terrible weakness for celebrity architects and public grandiosity. Add in corrupt and inefficient U.S. municipal institutions and you end up with our current perverse situation: American cities frequently spend much, much more than their European counterparts on transit projects, but get a lot less for it.
Despite some technical problems, Frankfurt's Hauptbahnhof opened five years after ground was broken; New York City's Second Avenue subway line has been under construction since 1919, and no one knows when it will be fully operational. As Stephen Smith points out in Bloomberg View, the first two miles of the Second Avenue subway will cost $5 billion, and New York will spend at least $3.8 billion on a single subway station, designed by celebrity architect Santiago Calatrava. "If New York could build subways at the prices that Paris and Tokyo pay, $3.8 billion would be enough to build the entire Second Avenue subway, from Harlem to the Financial District," Smith writes.
And if we expected form to follow function — or if we were simply to acknowledge that the world already has one Sydney Opera House — then Calatrava's downtown subway station might seem to us superfluous. You be the judge.

Looking to go certified, silver, gold, or platinum? Check out our easy guide!
1. Start budgeting for certification. Have your checkbook ready: LEED certification is not free. There is a minimum charge of $2,900 and a sliding scale thereafter. Fees for large projects it can be $1 million or more. There may also be additional project costs in preparation for certification (an extra 2% on average). On the other hand, you may qualify for government incentives, be able to justify a higher price to your customer, and gain some positive PR into the bargain.
2. Identify your target certification level. Because LEED certification is an investment, it's important to know upfront what you're aiming for. Your LEED objective is ideally part of your initial design phase and information to enter into construction management software you use. This lets you estimate the amounts of resources required to get the result you want and the return on your investment. It will also help you evaluate choices down the line for the most positive impact on your LEED certification strategy.
3. Seek out LEED-competent people. Planners, architects, and engineers who know about the LEED certification can guide you in your construction decisions. They may also be able to suggest ways of earning extra LEED points at no additional cost to the project.
The LEED application, review and certification process is handled online.
The website will also give you access to different resources to help you make your application.
5. Collect and upload information and documents according to specific LEED points or credits that you want to acquire. USGBC recommends that you double-check each credit to make sure your information is entered accurately and consistently. This may be stating the obvious for companies used to rigorously checking their estimates, bids, regulatory compliance, and so on. However, with the time, effort and money involved in LEED certification, a reminder while you prepare your application does no harm.
6. Submit your application. This can be in one step, using a LEED standard review. It can also be in as many as four separate steps if you are applying for a BD+C and ID+C project (see step 4 above). In these cases, the application can be split into a design review and a construction review, each of which can be further split into a preliminary and a final review. So that makes a total of 4 possible review steps—but only for BD+C and ID+C projects.
The pot of gold at the end of the rainbow is the LEED certification itself.
7. Certification done by a LEED accredited third party. According to the points scored for your construction project, you'll get your certified, silver, gold, or platinum rating.


Gemini Characteristics: Gemini represents those born from May 21—June 20. It' late spring and early summer in our calendar year, but Gemini is the third Zodiac sign of the year, directly after Taurus!
Good Things about Gemini: Affectionate, gentle, exciting, impulsive. Hmmm, so you sound like a big fluffy golden retriever. Not a bad thing to be. Don't let the fetch thing happen though!
Bad Things about Gemini: Indecisive, nervous, flighty and moody. That's the other side to you. So you're a bit of a Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde character!
Myth and Legend: Gemini the twins represents Castor and Pollux from Greek mythology. They had the same mother-Leda-but different fathers. Pollux's father was the God Zeus-Jupiter in Roman mythology-yet again! Castor's father was Leda's husband, King Tyndareus of Sparta. Pollux was immortal, due to the handy fact that his father happened to be a God. Unfortunately Castor his twin, who only had a king as a father-the poor thing-was merely mortal.
The two Greek brothers grew up to become famous explorers and warriors. They sailed with Jason in search of the Golden Fleece; the story behind the Aries constellation. Then they fought in the Trojan War: Helen of Troy, their half sister had left her husband Menelaus, for Paris of Troy, and the brothers were determined to bring her home.
Tragically Castor dies in the Trojan War. Overcome with grief, Pollux his immortal twin, pleads with Zeus to let his brother share his immortality. Zeus responds by placing the twins in the night sky as the Gemini constellation.
Element Sign: Gemini is an air sign. Air signs are thought to be abstract thinkers and intellectuals. Other air signs in the zodiac include Libra and Aquarius.
Glyph: The Gemini glyph does not look like a pair of twins, no matter how hard you squint. But the symbol does make some kind of sense, as it represents the number two—in Roman numerals!
Constellation: This constellation looks exactly like twins—well if you like twin stick figures drawn by five year olds! By as stick drawings go, it does resemble two people hand in hand. The Gemini constellation is unique in the Zodiac, in that two stars make up the twins' heads. Pollux as the immortal twin has the largest bright orange—cranial — star. Castor, his mortal brother has a smaller blue white star.
If you want to look for the Gemini constellation, you can see it anytime between January and May. The best viewing times are January and February at around 9pm; between latitudes + 90° and – 60° in the northern hemisphere. If you live in the southern hemisphere, look for the Gemini constellation in summer. Use a star map as a guide and an experienced star gazer to assist you is also helpful.
Extra Fun Fact: Gemini is Latin for Twins. The heads of the twins are represented by two stars.

Today we take a look at a company named Rosland Capital. What is Rosland Capital? Is Rosland Capital a gold scam? Or is it legit? Also, will it be something for you or not? These are some of the main questions this short review will focus on. Ok, here we go!
We always strongly recommend you doing your research online before you choose a company to invest with.
There are so many reviews online of clients being ripped off and scammed.
So please investigate thoroughly before you make your decision.
ALWAYS Review and compare the Top Gold IRA Companies Before You Invest!
There are literally hundreds, even thousands of precious metals dealers and IRA custodians to choose from.
The risk with this is that it can be easy to settle for the first company you find that "impress you".
The problem is, while most gold dealers offer similar bullion prices (based on the live spot price), they can differ A LOT in their shipping policies and storage fees, which are typically decided by the IRA custodians they deal with.
This is also where the "ripoffs" usually take place in the form of hidden fees and lack of transparency.
With that being said, let´s continue with the review on Rosland Capital!
What is Rosland Capital about?
Founded in 2008 by the CEO Marin Aleksov, Rosland Capital is a relatively "new" precious metals asset firm. It has been heavily promoted on tv and radio.
Plain and simple, Rosland Capital is a company where you can buy metals in physical form, they also offer IRAs to its clients.
For the moment the company employs about 70 people and they put a lot of weight on education to its clients on the benefits of buying precious metals to make their total net wealth rise.
First of all, what is your objective? Do you want to buy physical gold in the form of coins and bars, or do you want a golden IRA? Or maybe even both?
However, whatever you decide to do, there is not possible to order your product or service directly from the site, you are going to need to do it on a phone call.
For example, if you want to buy coins and bars you can first look at them on the site, then you need to call for price and availability.
If you are looking for IRAs the procedure is the same, you need to call and talk to a representative of the company.
Whenever you make a purchase on the phone the call will be recorded, for both yours and the companies safety so that no miss understanding occurs.
What does the company offer you then? Well, as I mentioned above it offers you both coins and bars in gold, silver, platinum or palladium.
The site offers many "collectors coins" and special editions, mainly "Formula One Grand Prix" printed coins.
One that caught my attention when I looked on the site, is one that weighs in at 5 kilos!
You can also find more "traditional" coins on the site in the form of the Canadian Maple Leaf or the American Eagle, etc.
Yes, Rosland Capital offers IRAs. Minimum investment for IRAs starts at $10,000.
Can you get the gold (and other metals) delivered to your home?
Yes, you can get the gold delivered to your home and store it at your desired location.
Shipping normally takes around 14 days.
…That is a pretty big minus in my book.
However, if you want the metals delivered to your home it is not a concern of course.
Can you sell back to the company?
So, can you sell your coins or bars back to the company if you, later on, would want to sell your metals? This is a service that many similar companies offer its clients.
Yes, they do buy back from you and you might even be able to sell products to them that wasn´t bought by them in the first place.
3. Buy-Back Policy and Customer Service. If in the future you decide that you would like to sell any precious metal or coin products purchased from Rosland Capital, as a service to our customers, Rosland Capital will provide you the opportunity to sell such products back to us at the current market value determined by Rosland Capital for such products on the day the sale to us is completed.
Due to market conditions and other factors, you may receive less than what you originally paid.
Can anybody in any country use the service?
All amounts stated in a Purchase Order are in U.S. Dollars and all payments made by Customer to Rosland Capital under a Purchase Order shall be made in the U.S. and in U.S. Dollars.
Personally, I like good high-quality support, preferably a 24/7 live chat with knowledgeable and fast answering staff… Does Rosland Capital have this?
No, in fact, there is no live chat function at all on their site, also I find the info on the site (overall) to be a little thin.
I would say that the support is not good at all in my opinion.
Expert economist on the staff, Jeff Nichols gives advice to both the company and also to the clients of the company. He also writes for the companies official newsletter.
Is Rosland Capital a gold scam?
It is important to mention that there are a little too many complaints and ripoff reports online about the company. Some of them are pretty serious also.
Why Should You (Or Should NOT) Join Rosland Capital?
It is very important to research and read about a company before you decide to invest into it, you are a smart person, you want to invest in gold and I think that is a very smart move to make, especially in these "economically insecure" times.
You made a good choice reading this review, this is not the first gold investing company that we have reviewed on this site, and most likely not the last.
The alternatives are TOP NOTCH.
Ok, I think I have made my point pretty clear on this one, it is a legit company and it (most likely) offers a service that is good for the client.
Even if there are many positive reviews on the company and the service out there, the complaints and ripoff reports are there too, and they are hard to ignore.
I always recommend to go by the motto: Search online for a product or service before you use it, look at reviews but not only one. If you find more than 7 or 8 negative reviews, then you are probably better off trying a different product/service.
I hope you found this review on Rosland Capital to be helpful and now you should have a better overall understanding of what it is and if it is gold a scam or not. If you are an active (or former) client, please share your experience in the comment section below as it can help others.
Also, if you got any questions about this review I will be more than happy to answer them below!
I myself purchase gold and silver as another form of investment.
I absolutely agree with you that your should do your research about the products and company's your buying from..
With the reviews and knowledge you have done on this topic would you suggest purchasing from your bank branch instead? or do you still find other avenues more equitable?
Me personally would not go through the bank, no. To see the most trusted ones go to the top menu of this site and go to investing and there you will find them all.
I have some doubts about their buy back policy. They state that they give a higher price than competitors when purchasing back, that's good, but under what conditions? For example, if I buy gold now and after one month the price goes up by 50%, and I decide to sell it back, will they buy it? I guess not. It will be interesting to know more about the buy back policy, especially about this kind of situation.
We invested over $40,000 of our life savings and were told by "Tyler" (who has since been fired) that there was no fee or charge WHATSOEVER when liquidating or selling back The Gold that we had purchased. Had we been told the truth. we never would have trusted them with our savings. The Truth: they keep/take 30-35% of the value of your gold and you only receive a 65-70% return . Luckily, we recorded all phone conversations of their lies And are now looking for a good Lawyer.
PLEASE, PLEASE don't give this unethical company your hard earned money. These people are corrupt and Fraudulent !! Record Every Conversation !!! These corrupt people will lie and say anything to Get you to buy gold from them.
and am of course, very sorry to hear about your horrible experience.
You did the right thing leaving a comment here as other will see this, you have just (most likely) helped someone to avoid this company that seems to be… how to say, not what they claim to be… Will change the review and lower their rating thanks to your comment.

But there's one thing you can always count on: the Nantzism. That's Jim Nantz's game-closing call, a cornball explosion that has attended the end of every title game since 1991, when Nantz joined Scooby Doo villain Billy Packer at the announcing table.
The Nantzism is a sacred event, even spawning its own aprocrypha. For instance, we've always remembered his 1999 call: "Just when you thought you can't, UCONN! The Huskies win the national title!" This line has come up in IoT conversation many times over the years.
But when we watched the video for this feature, we found that he actually said something quite different: "Just when people say you can't, you can! And UConn has won the national championship!"
That's not much fun.
When Nantz is good, he's bad. And when he's bad, he's spectacular. Here are our top Nantz calls of the last 20 years:

"Lute (Olson) is one of the top coaches to ever coach in college and that brand never went away, even though there were some not-so-good things happening, and then Sean (Miller) is just a heck of a coach. He's a really good guy, but he's a great coach and he had his team so well prepared. It was a great hire for them, to build back a brand that was right — you know, it's there." — Duke men's basketball CEO Mike Krzyzewski, after last night's season-ending loss to Arizona.
Coach K's right — Sean Miller has really rebuilt that Arizona brand. At this juncture, Duke basketball's brand managers are probably looking at that turnaround and asking themselves some difficult questions. Are we delivering on Duke basketball's brand promise? Are we effectively communicating our value proposition? Are there fundamental flaws in our brand architecture?
Identifying Duke's problems weaknesses challenges potential growth areas opportunities will require some soul-searching, a deep dive into the current state of the Duke basketball brand; the 30,000-foot view won't be enough. Assess every touchpoint with customers. Focus-group this thing. Put some black-belt, Six sigma mojo on it.
Who knows what K's brand management team will find? Maybe Duke's frontline staff have been operating in silos, and it's time to tear down the walls between them. Vertically integrate. Challenge the status quo. But as K and his team do so, they need to make sure they're defining roles and clearly communicating action steps to each member of the team. Really flesh out that vision for the future state, and identify the change agents who can drive the process.
Once Duke's defined the problems challenges opportunities, K should launch the solution phase of the process with an off-site, all-hands brainstorming session to start: a no-holds-barred approach where no idea, no matter how back-of-the-envelope, is dismissed. It takes that sort of environment to really cultivate outside-the-box thinking. K may want to bring in some outside thought leaders, critical thinkers who are plugged into best practices for reviving an aging declining faltering opportunity-blessed basketball brand.
The good news for Krzyzewski is that his company organization team family has a lot of quality human capital to draw on. K's going to need buy-in all the way up to the C suite. But getting sweat equity from everyone shouldn't be a problem for Coach K. The man knows how to motivate.
I think K's management team is going to find that this isn't a burning platform situation. The solutions here are evolutionary, not revolutionary. But that doesn't mean there are going to be easy solutions. Just bringing in new brand ambassadors next year won't solve the problem. There are no Band-aids for Duke's problems issues opportunities and no workarounds to greatness excellence increased market share.

At its most basic, Ink can be used to write a branching dialogue tree or a non-linear Choose Your Own Adventure story with multiple endings, but its real strength is allowing non-technical writers to create dynamic narratives using only minimal markup syntax. The text remains readable allowing an author to follow the story flow by eye, and edit at any point to add new branching options and alternate text, update variables, and reconnect to the main story.
There's no programming loop. Instead an ink runtime follows a single path through the text, typically following a goto link, jumping directly to sections called knots and their order-prioritized sub-sections called stitches – with a name like ink it would be reasonable to expect the metaphors would be about pens and writing but an inkle loom is a device for weaving straps out of one continuous thread wound around pegs (an elegant metaphor that isn't terribly helpful in understanding ink's syntax).
Ink runtime keeps track of which sections of the story have already been visited, automatically removing the options that have already been picked. Multiple choice dialog branches can be nested in place, creating conversational diversions before seamlessly weaving back into the main thread. Authors can write in natural prose, following conventions of visual novels or interactive fiction, and not worry about specialized code or relying on programmers to generate the options.
Aug 25, 2013 –– Together with a few collegues, Michael created the interactive story "Façade", an interactive drama about the relations between three persons in a small flat. Michael holds the MacArthur Chair at University of California, Santa Cruz and runs their Expressive Intelligence Studio where they explore the intersection of artificial intelligence, art and design. "Our goal is to create compelling new forms of interactive art and entertainment that provide more deeply autonomous, generative and dynamic responses to interaction", says Michael. His talk is titled "How New Playable Models from Recent Work on AI Can Enable New Types of Serious Games, i.a. Games about Human Rights".

It's not unusual for most mining employees to have a hobby or job on the side, but Dan Wilson is one Operator putting in the hard yards to make a lifelong ambition come true.
Some would say raising five kids and working a fulltime job in the mining industry would be enough for any one person to manage, but Yancoal Mt Thorley's Dan Wilson has his eyes set on acting and is giving it his best crack at making it on the big screen.
Having already appeared in "a lot' of short films and a few feature films, with a few TV commercials and music videos to go along with it, life's been "pretty hectic" since making the decision to pursue his acting career. Dan has even featured in a few Sundance Film Festivals and a short film festival in Spain.
Dan explains why he is so determined to make this work. "I did drama at school but then went off on a different path working an everyday job, but a few years back was hit with a burning desire to go for it. I became focused on making the best go of it I could, no matter what happens in my personal life."
Dan has an agent on the Gold Coast that assists with getting his portfolio in front of the right people, though it's his hard work and plenty of travelling for auditions and training that is getting his name out there in the world of cameras and red carpets. He wouldn't be able to do it without the support of his large family though.
"I wouldn't be able to do it without them backing me, and at times it is hard to get that balance right. On nightshift I am usually up for when they are home from school, and when it's on the nightshift weekend the fiancé takes then to all the social stuff. We have a really good thing going on, it works."
"I really do wish I had more family time, with shift work and being in Sydney a lot, it sometimes feels like I don't get a lot of time with them. But every person with a success story tells where they had to work 7 days a week for however many years before they made it."
Acting may be a burning desire, though it's his love for driving the big gear that has him boasting, "I am pretty much living the dream at the moment." Having taken the gamble and switching from a smaller pit to Mt Thorley under the new look Yancoal, Dan has just completed a medical for a full time job.
"I was on a dozer at another pit prior to coming to Mt Thorley, and I knew by switching workplaces I would go back to square one and mainly on a truck. But I have kept my nose clean, I've done plenty of overtime and now it's my time."
Now he's where he wants to be in his mining career, and things are starting to take a positive direction for his acting career. He attributes being able to follow his dream to his mining job which is providing financial stability for his family.
For those of you who also have a passion waiting to be kindled, Dan's message is simple; Never give up. Never lose vision of living your dream. It takes a lot of hard work and plenty of knockbacks, but it also only takes the right "yes" to open doors.
All the best Dan and keep us in the loop. We have no doubt that doors will not only open for you, but for our region in this field as well. If you want to stay updated on Dan's ride, follow him on Instagram@danielwilson7460

The Public Enemy (1931)
James Cagney owns the neighbourhood as Tom Powers The Public Enemy
Director: William A Wellman
Cast: James Cagney (Tom Powers), Jean Harlow (Gwen Allen), Edward Woods (Matt Doyle), Joan Blondell (Mamie), Donald Cook (Mike Powers), Leslie Fenton (Nails Nathan), Beryl Mercer (Ma Powers), Robert Emmett O'Connor (Paddy Ryan), Murray Kinnell (Putty Nose)
The gangster film has been popular as long as there have been movies. And if there was an actor that first became synonymous with the hair-trigger violence of the underclasses, it was James Cagney. The Public Enemy was Cagney's big-break, a career shift from the song-and-dance films that had been his bread-and-butter before this. Cagney seizes the opportunity with relish – and helped set a template that everyone from Tony Montana to Tommy Vito have followed ever since.
Tom Powers (James Cagney) is an impulsive, violent, ambitious small-time crook who gets more and more embroiled in the world of crime, from his boyhood in the 1900s to the introduction of prohibition in the 1920s. Partnered with his lifetime-long best friend Matt Doyle (Edward Woods) – and despite the disapproval of his straight-laced brother and war vet Donald (Mike Powers) – Powers rakes in the crash as an enforcer for Paddy Ryan's (Robert Emmett O'Connor) liquer business. But when the gang war breaks out, the dangerously impulsive Powers finds himself in the middle of a situation he can no longer control.
Cagney amazingly wasn't the first choice for Powers. In fact, he started shooting the film playing the terminally dull nothing-part of Matt Doyle, with Edward Woods playing Powers (the two child actors at the start of the film playing their young versions, specially cast for their resemblance to Cagney and Woods, remain noticeably the wrong way round). Cagney's charisma tore up the screen in the rushes – far overshadowing the bland Woods – and the call came from the top: "Swop these guys round!" And so film history was born.
As silence turned to sound in the movies, so the style of acting that the movies required grew and changed. Originally sound was the preserve of the well-spoken, crystal clear, the mic needs to capture every word, diction of the classically trained actor (half the cast in the film continue to speak with cut-glass, Mid-Western clarity). Cagney was something else. A little spitball of energy, who rushed through the lines, who threw in his own accented casualness, who dropped letters from words, who felt real and alive.
It's astonishing watching this what a brilliantly modern actor Cagney is: the little psychological touches that speak to Powers' many hang-ups and insecurities. The commitment to any bit of business required. The method dedication to doing things for real (not least his insistence that at one point Donald Cook punches him for real). His Powers is a brilliant portrait of searing nervous energy – that lifetime of dance training paid off in spades in Cagney's mastery of physicality – and ruthless thoughtlessness, spiced with a touch of smartness ("Your hands ain't so clean. You killed and liked it. You didn't get them medals for holding hands with the Germans" he sneeringly tells his brother). It's a masterful performance of magnetism that holds so much influence with films to come you'll retrospectively see touches of Cagney in nearly every dangerous psycho played by actors such as Pacino, De Niro and Pesci.
Wellman's film is also hugely influential, practically laying the ground work for the structure of gangster morality tale – from those first trivial involvements in crime, the getting deeper, those terrible relationships (often with a girl with a pauncheon for dangerous men), the isolation and the fall. Wellman shoots it with a brilliant eye for action – there are majestic chases, gun fights and punch ups that still entertain today (for all their slightly old fashioned look). As a piece of pulp story telling this is damn high class.
But the other trick is that some of the best scenes are those away from the action. Powers clashes with his brother are brilliantly done. An early sequence in which as a boy Powers wordlessly takes the strap from his strict father (a scene that is echoed years later in Scorsese's Goodfellas, with Powers a clear prototype for both Tommy and Henry in that film) is brilliant. Most famously of all, the breakfast sequence when a bored and frustrated Powers shoves a grapefruit in the face of the (legitimate) complaints of a girlfriend. Watching it today it's amazing to think how influential this scene was – audiences hadn't really seen anything like it.
And it works as a dance with the devil because Wellman and Cagney both know that we might not want to spend time with Powers, but a part of us wants to see this working-class grasper and charismatic fun-loving criminal to succeed and get-ahead. You end up rooting a bit for him – even though you know, with the Hays Code in place, that Powers won't still be standing by the end of the film. The executives were so worried about audiences being a little too keen on Powers, they added a sanctimonious message about the dangers of crime to the start of the film.
Fast-paced, pulpy, violent and full of excellent scenes with a real eye for how America grew and changed over the first 25 years of so of the 20th century, Wellman's Public Enemy is a masterclass of film-making – and about a zillion times more influential than many of the prestige films released at the time. But it also works so well because Cagney is one of the best there is, not just in the gangster films, but films themselves. A performer you can't tear your eyes away from who turns a pulp character into a sea of complexity, he's as much one for the ages as the picture.

Hanes saw an opportunity to give back this year after learning the heartwarming story of a New York City police officer who bought a pair of socks for a homeless man he saw digging through trash at the city's busy Grand Central Station. The brand is building upon this act of goodwill by donating 500 pairs of socks to New Yorkers in need. The effort also ladders up the company's annual sock donation to the Salvation Army, a commitment first started in 2009.
This year, eBay launched "Gifts That Give Back," a new initiative that allows nonprofits to "sell" donations on the online marketplace. Donations come in increments of $25, $50, $75 and $100 and eBay doesn't take a cut for any donations "sold." Currently, partner nonprofits include the ASPCA, March of Dimes, Habitat for Humanity, CARE, the American Red Cross and the American Cancer Society.
Before the Thanksgiving holiday, executives at Delta opted to spend the night on the streets to support the Covenant House, a nonprofit fighting youth homelessness. While Delta executives have participated in this event since 2013; this year, 13 executives raised nearly $100,000 as part of the effort.
An omnipresent sight during the holiday season, Amazon is harnessing its delivery trucks for good. In a new effort called Trucks Across America, 17 Amazon trucks will be on a special mission to deliver much-needed items like winter clothing, toys and household essentials to local nonprofits near Amazon's fulfillment centers across the U.S.
We'd be remiss if we didn't mention Patagonia's landmark decision to donate 100 percent of its global Black Friday sales to nonprofits benefiting the planet. The campaign was so popular, the company beat its goal of $2 million dollars in sales by five times that amount – resulting in $10 million in donations to hundreds of grassroots environmental organizations.

At Cosmetic & Preventive Dentistry, we are committed to providing our patients with superior dentistry. One way that we provide optimal care is by using state of the art technology. As a result, we have invested in CEREC CAD/CAM technology. CEREC is the world's only system for the fabrication of ceramic dental restorations in one office visit. With CEREC, our doctors can often have you in and out in a single visit with a permanent, all ceramic crown, onlay or veneer! For you, the patient, this means fewer injections, less drilling and less time out of your hectic schedule for dental care. So, why are thousands of people world wide choosing the CEREC restorative technique for their dental needs?
A CEREC tooth restoration isn't just convenient, it is also healthy. Many years ago, dentists had few options to repair decayed and damaged teeth other than amalgam, gold, and other metals. With CEREC, our doctors can use strong, tooth colored ceramic materials to restore your teeth to their natural strength, beauty, and function. These materials closely match the composition of natural tooth structure. This means when you eat hot food and then drink something cold, the restoration and tooth expand and contract at almost equal rates. So, your tooth does not crack, and you can go on enjoying your evening. Also, the materials are chemically bonded to your tooth, so your dentist can save as much healthy tooth tissue as possible while providing you with a dental restoration that strengthens your tooth.
Dr.'s Babushkin, Austin and Wooley can use CEREC for more than just crowns and fillings. CEREC is capable of producing any single tooth restoration. Chipped or discolored front teeth can be repaired with beautiful CEREC porcelain anterior crowns or veneers. Your smile makes a lasting first impression. Enhance it with CEREC.
