HONNE – Good Together
HONNE have unveiled new track 'Good Together', taken from their forthcoming, much-anticipated debut album, 'Warm On A Cold Night' (released July 22nd via Atlantic Records). Latest single 'Someone That Loves You' (with Izzy Bizu) has also been B-Listed at Radio 1, with the track already having surpassed 10 million streams and cracked the top 10 of iTunes' Electronic chart. Following a breakout festival run and sold-out shows across Europe and the US, an extensive worldwide tour is on sale now (including London's Roundhouse on October 28th).
The gospel-tinged uplift of 'Good Together' celebrates that honeymoon-period in a new relationship – however long it lasts – on an album whose sleepy sexuality often lies just beneath the surface, comfortable in its own skin. HONNE's universal, positive portraits of twenty-first century romance have quickly won them a broad global audience: both parallel to – and a stark reaction against – the sometimes-brutal modern dating climate ("we were terrible at being single," the band say now). Released this summer, 'Warm On A Cold Night' is a record where expressing feelings may not come naturally, but nonetheless strives for real love in the digital age.
HONNE are singer Andy and multi-instrumentalist James, who first bonded over their shared upbringing in South-West England; then, the more evocative, US West Coast grooves of their record collections, and a mutual fascination with Japan. During a midnight re-watching of 'Lost in Translation', it became apparent that this sense of a partner at a loose end – of wandering through a strange environment, and struggling to convey what you mean – was just as relevant to their lives off-screen. When James found the word 'Honne' later on (a Japanese phrase meaning 'true feelings'), the boys knew it was theirs. The first song HONNE ever finished, 'Warm On A Cold Night', now titles their stunning forthcoming debut album. And between the millions of stream and sell-out shows since then, the soulful duo have carved out an instantly-identifiable sound all of their own.
HONNE 本音 :: one's true feelings and desires

Duluth, GA Negligent Auto Repair Attorney
Helping People Who Have Been Injured by Negligent Mechanics and Mechanic Shops
You take your car to the auto repair shop to keep it in good repair. In fact, you shell out plenty of money to keep your vehicle road worthy. If the repair shop's negligent work or use of faulty parts contributes to a car accident that leaves you injured, it can be especially harrowing. These claims are complex, but if your mechanic's faulty work has caused you to be injured, your rights, your rightful compensation, and your case all matter. You need experienced legal counsel.
Negligent Repair Work
When your auto repair shop fails to make car repairs or provide car maintenance that is up to industry standards, that repair shop provides you with negligent service. If the auto repair shop's substandard repairs and/or substandard maintenance lead to further damage to your vehicle or cause your vehicle not to operate safely, it can put you in harm's way. There are a variety of ways that negligent auto repair work can play out:
- Failing to adequately complete necessary repairs
- Allowing unqualified or untrained mechanics to do repair work
- Installing the wrong replacement part
- Performing an incorrect or unnecessary procedure or repair
- Damaging another car part while doing repair work
- Illegally modifying vehicle parts
- Failing to identify necessary repairs
- Leaving foreign object or debris inside the mechanics of the vehicle
Any of these actions can lead to further damage to your vehicle, to poor vehicle performance, or to an accident.
If your car has received negligent repair work that's led to property damage, injury, or both, consult with an experienced personal injury attorney today. Such claims are complicated, but this doesn't mean they're not worth pursuing. You rely on your car repair shop to help keep your car in safe working order. If—instead—your car is damaged or you are injured, it can be very hard to come to terms with. The dedicated legal team at Brauns Law, PC in Gwinnett County, Georgia, understands how difficult these situations can be, and we're committed to aggressively fighting for your car accident claim's most positive resolution.
Your Claim
If you've been injured in an accident that you believe is directly related to negligent auto repairs, there are several factors that are important to consider:
- You'll need to show that the mechanic shop owed you a duty of care, which is a relatively straightforward process if you—as a paying customer—took your vehicle to the auto repair shop for repairs.
- You'll need to show that the repair shop or the mechanic (or both) failed to rise to this duty of care. This means that either or both were negligent or careless in the repair work they provided.
- Finally, you'll need to show that this negligent or careless repair work caused you to suffer real damage.
So how does this play out in the real world? Let's consider a hypothetical scenario in which you take your car into the auto repair shop because your brake indicator light is flashing at you. You leave your car at the shop for five or six hours, you pay a bunch of money, and finally, you're back in your ride. The problem is that on the way home, your brakes fail to work when you try to stop at the huge intersection right outside the car repair business. As a result, your car sails right through a red light and causes thousands in property damage while leaving you with a nasty case of whiplash.
The facts as they now stand are that you appear to be the at-fault party in a serious car accident that caused property damage and injury, that you just had your car's brakes repaired (after your car indicated that such repair was necessary), and that your repaired brakes failed to work the first time you attempted to use them. It looks like you have a case.
Your Case
The repair shop will have an answer to your belief that their negligence caused you to be injured. It's the nature of the beast. The repair shop and/or the repair shop's insurance company will do whatever either of them can to wiggle out of this, including saying that the vehicular problem that caused you to be injured in an accident was a new problem that is completely unrelated to the repair work or saying that the accident wasn't a foreseeable consequence of any error the mechanic made. The point is that you're most likely going to have a fight on your hands.
That's okay, because your dedicated car accident attorney will leave no stone unturned in representing your claim. This will likely include carefully examining the scene of your accident and bringing in expert witnesses and accident reconstructionists. You were injured because of an auto repair shop's negligence, and you're entitled to rightful compensation.
Your Damages
If negligent auto repair has left you injured in a car accident, there's a lot to consider:
- The property damage to your car and to any other vehicles damaged in the ensuing accident
- Your medical expenses, including emergency transportation and care, surgery and aftercare, doctor and specialist appointments and care, ongoing care, prescription medications, adaptive medical devices, and home adaptations
- Lost wages and any diminishment in earning potential
- Physical and emotional pain and suffering
Car accidents often have serious physical, emotional, and financial consequences, and if yours was caused by negligent auto repair work, it can make it that much more difficult.
If You Were Injured in a Car Accident That Negligent Auto Repair Caused, You Need a Skilled Car Accident Attorney
Car accidents are difficult enough, but if you've been injured in a car accident that was caused by an auto repair shop's negligent work, it's more difficult still. Such an accident is likely to leave you at a loss for where to turn. To schedule a free case evaluation with Gwinnett County car accident lawyer David Brauns, contact us online or call our office today at (404) 348-0889.

A federal grand jury in California has indicted U.S. Rep. Duncan Hunter and his wife on corruption charges.
Prosecutors say the panel in San Diego charged the California Republican and his spouse Tuesday with converting more than $250,000 in campaign money to pay for personal expenses, including dental work, fast food, golf outings, and vacations and trips for their family and nearly a dozen relatives.
The 48-count indictment alleges the money was taken between 2009 and 2016. It alleges that the couple concealed the misuse by falsifying campaign finance records, claiming the expenses as being campaign-related.
Asked for comment Tuesday, a representative for Hunter sent an Aug. 6 letter from his attorney, Gregory A. Vega, to Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein. The letter called the indictment process politically motivated.

Whelan wants £3m for Bruce
Wigan chairman David Whelan revealed on Sunday he wants £3million compensation from Sunderland for manager Steve Bruce.
Whelan has given Bruce permission to talk to Black Cats chairman Niall Quinn and he expects a decision to be made on Sunday.
He told Sportsweek on Radio Five Live: "I paid Birmingham a compensation fee and I think it is only fair they buy his contract out. I paid Birmingham £3million and I am asking for the same amount back."
He added: "There are a lot of managers on the market at moment you can get for nothing. It depends whether Sunderland feel they want to pay £3million. If they want real, real quality managers Steve is up there.
"I said to Steve and to Niall that if you are going to do a deal, do it quickly. Niall spoke to me and said 'I understand we can't mess about on this and by Sunday evening we will have a decision for you'."
Whelan added that he will not draw up a shortlist of potential replacements until he has heard for certain that Bruce is leaving the JJB Stadium.
"I don't want to lose Steve," said Whelan. "I really haven't got one (a replacement) in mind at present. It is not something I do - I wait to see what the outcome is and face reality.
"I would advertise and we will have 20 applications in with some good lads among them.
"There quite a lot of people on the market at present and there are some good lads out there who don't have jobs."
Although Sunderland's interest in Bruce is genuine there are other candidates and it is by no means certain that he will be Ricky Sbragia's successor.

Here's why artist Puneet Kaushik is part of a Kangra village arts fest that brings urban and rural artists together
- +0
- +0
Try googling Gunehar in Himachal Pradesh, and all you get is a small map and a few postal details. In two weeks, however, this is almost certain to change.
This small, sleepy village -- located in Kangra Valley -- is playing host to ShopArt ArtShop, a unique art festival, which will have the whole village turning into a vibrant canvas. Over the course of last one month, several artists have stepped out of their comfort zone, stayed and worked with village craftsmen and artisans to create art installations, textile-based products, and paintings that will finally be all up from June 7 to June 14 for visitors.
Delhi-based Puneet Kaushik, known for his large-scale installations and cutting-edge mixed media work, is one of these 10 artists. Kaushik has co-curated this festival with Frank Schlichtmann and Ketna Patel while also working on three art projects for the festival.
View from the top
"The idea is to bring contemporary, folk, and tribal art together, to make it more usable in today's context. This is needed to sustain folk art in India,"
says the 44-year-old, as he puts the final touches on the Kangra miniature paintings he is creating in collaboration with the village's artisans.
These 10-odd artisans are the only ones working in this style now. "I have always worked towards reviving the dying art forms of India," says Kaushik, who in his capacity as one of the directors of Dastkar, did a project in Bidar to revive the Bidari craft of silver inlay in metal alloy. Another element he has used in his paintings often is bead work, derived from the almost extinct embroidery style of Tibet and Burma.
For yet another project at the Gunehar festival, Kaushik wants to create an aerial impact. Gunehar is a village with a voting population of only 2600 people but is known as Asia's most significant paragliding venue. Kaushik has used waterproof paint to create leaf-like drawings on the houses' rooftops, so that when you glide down from the parachute, you see a colourful, flowing river of leaves.
His third project – in his signature style of creating large-scale installations is titled People Who Live in Glass Houses. Using recycled yarn and boulders from the local area, he will convert the four bedrooms of a deserted house into a living, breathing space.
Early Impressions
Design has always been Kaushik's strength. He began his artistic journey in Class XI when he was studying at General Raj's School in Delhi. He had already begun to design furniture for embassies, private residences, studios and offices followed by a career as an illustrator for magazines at Media Transasia.
While in college at Jamia Millia University in 1992, where he was studying a four-year-course in fine arts, he designed for the Handicraft and Handloom Corporation of India and Central Cottage Industries Corporation of India. In 1998, he went to Berkeley College in California where he studied mixed media art. It was this eclectic educational background that honed Kaushik's ability to express in varied mediums. He says,
"I had been exposed to the western culture, but nostalgia and a strong pull by my Indian roots saw me packing my bags as soon as I finished my course at Berkeley."
As a child, his earliest creative pursuit was making New Year and Diwali cards. "I was also exposed to my grandmother's crochet work that covered our furniture and was used as tapestry and table cloths. This must have unconsciously inspired me to create works with fabric and woven material from an early age. The tradition was continued by my mother who does tatting and knitting and now my wife who is a textile designer. Born and brought up in Delhi, I was surrounded by old-world charm and nostalgia. So much so, that I wanted to give these memories a more permanent manifestation mostly in the form of installations," he adds.
First big break
Kaushik's first solo show was held in 1997 in San Francisco titled Markings on the Wall. The show, consisting of drawings and installations, reflected his experience of being from Rajasthan and having spent almost all his summer vacations in the desert state. The show was replete with a sense of graffiti that one experiences while walking through the Shekhawati district.
Juxtaposing elements of pop art with traditional miniature art, the show was a hit. Kaushik recalls that the initial struggle was one of trying to find a language that smoothly combined the ethos of his Indian roots with that of a western education. Search for identity, issues of immigration and migration have always been subjects that concern him.
In 2014, at Delhi's Vis-à-vis gallery, he had exhibited a 40-feet-long crochet-based work in steel wire titled Dislocated Roots that narrated a similar story.
He was also one of the first artists among his contemporaries to experiment with mediums when most others were happy focusing on oil and acrylics. "Balancing high art and indigenous craft-techniques, my work is a depiction of the aesthetic and material cracks underlying the visible reality of urban life. They are abstract, neo-expressionist, collages of kaleidoscopic materials and techniques -- wire mesh, paint, sewing, embroidery, tufting, line drawings and organic dyes that bring to the surface histories of tension that exist just beneath the ordinariness of everyday lived humanity. Through my work, I want to capture the spirit of human fragility and the ability to transcend it."
For instance, in a recent show in Delhi titled Fibre Fables, Kaushik had showcased a mixed media installation titled Roots made out of metal wires woven with wool on the kilim loom. Created in collaboration with weavers from Panipat, the work symbolises our eternal quest to know where we come from and where we stand today. More recently, he has just completed an 80-meter-long wall with recycled waste from the construction site of a real estate company in Alloha, Gujarat. The work may soon find its way as the worlds' longest recycled installation in Limca Book of Records.
Avid collector
An avid art collector of art and antiquities, Kaushik also doubles up as a textile designer in partnership with his wife Rema Kumar and has been successfully running 'Add Ons', a lifestyle and design store in Shahpur Jat, New Delhi.
The store houses saris ("we have been restoring silk fabrics specially Banarasi fabrics"), traditional jewellery, stoles, folk and tribal art. "My wife, a textile designer, and I felt the need to make these more accessible to people, rather than let the folk and tribal arts die a natural death. We have been working with weavers and craftsmen across India, some of them National Awardees, for the last 15 years, creating new products by giving their work a more contemporary, design input. We want Indians to value and respect our traditional crafts instead of spending their money on multinational brands," he says.
As an artist, Kaushik believes steadfastly in creating awareness about our rich ethnic tradition. "Money is important, but art has to be pursued for the passion one has for creating and changing lifestyles and thought processes," he says. No wonder then, after he comes back from Gunehar in mid-June, there is no holiday break for him. He is then going to be working on a project called Britindia, a celebration of 70 years of India's freedom from Britain that would involve fashion, theatre, performance, and visual art.

Is the there any good reason why the new so-called African American history museum at the Smithsonian is not jumping at the chance to accept donation of a rare item that is part of the African American legacy? The curators don't even have to leave their chair to investigate this link Well, I have written a book that provides all the reference material for them. This is a process not sponsored by Oprah Winfrey, or big corporate or academic sources. This may be part of the problem. All of these interests mentioned above were patronized when the museum opened. I have a feeling there are many others like me that have something of perceived value to contribute that are lost in the shuffle. This is going to cost a lot because now that quilt is going to come with a six-figure cost. That's the appraised value. Maybe it will wind up at Ripley's Believe It or Not.The quilt has direct relationship to the Underground Railroad and even has a translatable code on it. Very rare- A piece of cake right? Why then after two years of applications do I hear nothing? I did notice that their are further delays in the works. It does not surprise me to hear that the director of this museum, (as per his own published comment) had to break into the place with a crowbar to enter on the first day. What about that reassures anyone that the place is being competently managed?Any suggestions on how to expedite this process? In the meanwhile here's some music to listen to. There will be more songs here before this quilt is given a new home.

Are all year round allergies a problem in your home? It definitely is an issue in our home especially when it comes to my 10-year-old son. All year-round allergies result from exposure to house dust for example. The nose becomes congested, itchy, and sometimes runny, and the mouth and throat become itchy. These early symptoms then manifest into bigger health issues.
I'm no eco-warrior but I believe that you shouldn't knock something until your try it. Plus anything that will help my little boy will be an absolute blessing. I really am a skeptic when it comes to natural products because I honestly believe that not all products are what they claim to be. I teamed up with SoPure Naturally in December to put their products to the test.
While the SoPure range collection includes everything from baby to beauty to household, my family and I put 6 of their much talked about products through its paces.
Our Experience with SoPure
Skylar my 10-year-old is prone to all year round allergies and struggles severely during change of season and/or climates. In December we embarked on a 14 day road trip that saw us exposed to the elements as we traveled around the country.
KZN and Mpumalanga both known for the extreme mosquito conditions was a huge concern for us. Firstly because the Kruger National Park is a malaria risk area and secondly because Skylar is allergic to them nasty blood suckers. The mozzie spray was going to definitely be put to the test. We didn't get bitten except for one evening when we were covered from head to toe in bites, only to later realise that I hadn't followed the directions as stipulated on the bottle. The mozzie spray needs to be shaken properly to be activated. To make 100% sure if it does work as well as the claims, we continued to test the spray over the past few weeks and it definitely does work. My son says he absolutely loves the vanilla scent as opposed to the aggressive citronella smell.
Let me add that the 60ml travel sizes came in handy on our road trip. The body wash and bubble bath are both light and gentle. Skylar normally experiences dry skin and pretty much nothing seems to help. Since we started using these products, dry skin is a thing of the past. My boys also love the fact that its fragrance-free and doesn't have that girly smell (their words not mine).
The hand wash blew me away. Check out my Instagram post below to find out how the unexpected and unintended use of the product saved the day.
View this post on Instagram
Super stressful evening tonight. LOOK AT THAT SAD FACE 🐶 . @adventure_nugget was really ill. He spent the day vomiting and pooping all day long. The boys spent the last day of their school holiday cleaning up after this cutie. 😕 . @sopurenaturally hygiene hand wash was an absolute lifesaver today. It washes away up to 99.9% of germs, is eco friendly and is baby friendly which means it's safe for our #furbaby too. I even used it to mop my floors and must admit that I am super impressed that it helped eliminate those nasty odours. . 3 injections and some meds later … and he's looking much better already 🐶 . . . . . #ecofriendly #babysafe #sopurenaturally
As soon as I received the products to test, I made a point of spraying all our beds with the Mite Spray. During our road trip we stayed 6 different accommodations. I also sprayed all those beds as well. Skylar has definitely been sleeping well and hasn't been congested for almost two months which is wonderful for my boy.
I'm sure you spotted the baby bottle and teat wash, but there aren't any babies in our house. I actually used it for my gym bottles and protein shakers. Workout areas are home to an incredible amount of germs which means your water bottles need to be cleaned effectively to remove bacteria and germs. The wash is also great to remove those odours that normally builder up in protein drink shakers and it works like a bomb. I tried it on my plastic and stainless steel bottles and shakers and it worked well on both. No more odours.
SoPure Naturally products are 100% safe for the whole family, including babies and is eco-friendly. Plus if it safe for my babies then its definitely safe for my fur baby too. Having a new puppy in the house means loads of oopsies and loads of cleaning up, so the fact that the products remove 99% of bacteria is peace of mind for this mom. I must admit that I'm tremendously impressed by the range as it's made a huge difference in our lives in such a short time

TO: Employee-news
FROM: Dr. Melik Peter Khoury
DATE: September 4, 2015
SUBJECT: Interim Chief Academic Officer to Start October 1st
ATTACHMENT: CAO Job Description
Please join me in welcoming Robert Frank Scott, Jr., Ph.D. to the Unity College community. Rob will be joining the College on October 1st as the Interim Associate CAO, and will transition to Interim Chief Academic Officer and Professor of Criminology on January 3rd. Dr. Scott comes to Unity College from Kansas Wesleyan University in Salina, Kansas where he held the position of Vice President for Strategic Initiatives and Institutional Effectiveness after years of service as CAO at multiple institutions.
The need for immediate service at the Chief Academic Officer position convinced me to move deliberately. My commitment to allow the next President to select his or her own CAO recommended an up to two year interim appointment. Hiring a proven leader with a particular skill set now, but for a set term, allows us to follow through on the Strategic Plan without delay.
Tangible progress on alternative revenue streams like online education and integration of the curricular, co-curricular, and residential living and learning experience are key to on-schedule realization of the Strategic Plan. As the list was narrowed, Dr. Scott's experience as a successful developer of online and residential academic programs is what set him apart from other highly qualified candidates.
Dr. Scott contributes welcome experience to functional leadership in abundance at Unity College. In our emerging administrative structure Rob will work with the team of chief officers to establish execution strategies and provide mutual support across departmental boundaries. As Chief Academic Officer, Dr. Scott will serve as first among equals with regard to academic, curricular, and faculty matters.
In our new leadership in abundance model of chief officers, the CAO plays a vital role. Strict focus will allow our new CAO to give much-needed attention to day-to-day concerns, while relying on the President to work with the Board of Trustees and chief officer team to set policy and strategy.
Specific deliverables for the position of interim CAO include successful management of day-to-day academic operations; feasibility assessment and execution planning for online graduate education; continuous preparation for accreditation; ongoing response to student academic concerns; support of the President in implementation of academic restructuring; ongoing work with Center Directors to ensure compliance with the evaluation, retention and promotion requirements of the Personnel Policies & Procedures "PPP" faculty manual; and execution of assigned elements of the Strategic Plan for AY 15-16.
Dr. Scott has considerable experience as Chief Academic Officer, having held the position of Vice President of Academic Affairs at both Keystone College in La Plume, Pennsylvania and at the University of Maine at Fort Kent. He was also Dean of the College of Education and Applied Technology at Fort Hays State University in Fort Hays, Kansas and Chair of the Department of Justice Studies at the same institution.
Dr. Scott's accomplishments in distance learning are considerable. At Fort Hays State University he oversaw the College of Education and Technology which enrolls 650 graduate and 600 undergraduate online students. Also at Fort Hays, Scott designed and led development of online undergraduate and graduate programs in Justice Studies. At Keystone College Dr. Scott increased online headcounts and offerings, and created a significant international partnership. Dr. Scott led the implementation of the online learning initiative at Kansas Wesleyan University. University of Maine at Fort Kent realized growth in online headcount and offerings during his leadership there.
Dr. Scott earned his Doctor of Philosophy (Ph.D.) from Sam Houston State University in Criminal Justice in 1993. His dissertation is titled "Rural-Agrarian Illicit Anabolic Steroid Use Patterns." Scott completed Post-Masters Study at Indiana University of Pennsylvania in Criminal Justice where his major area of study was affirmative action policy. He completed his Master of Science (M.S.) in Criminal Justice at the State University of New York College at Buffalo where his major area of study was Public Administration. Scott's Bachelor of Arts (B.A.) is from Brock University, St. Catherine's, Ontario, Canada, in Political Science.
Teaching and scholarship in the fields of criminal justice and higher education administration provide the backbone of Dr. Scott's faculty record. Publications and presentations include the areas of technology in law enforcement, drug crime, and the use of force, as well as on the higher education administration topics of distance education and graduate program development.
Rob Scott's successful years of experience with program startup, policy development, faculty supervision and governance, and mission-focused service stand Unity College in good stead at CAO. His preparation as a scholar and years as a productive faculty member make him a ready advocate for faculty.
During professional development faculty expressed interest in better access to and communication with administration, so I have asked our Director of Facilities, Dan LaForge to work with CDs to identify an office location to achieve this excellent goal. By January 3, Dr. Scott will be located either in Founders Hall South or in Koons Hall.
I believe that we will agree with Rob's glowing references conducted by HR that he is an excellent addition to the Unity College leadership team. Welcome, Dr. Rob Scott to the Unity College Faculty and community.
Dr. Melik Peter Khoury
Executive Vice President, CAO, CFO &
Liaison to the Board of Trustees
Unity College
Office: 207-509-7144

Majut was a Cardassian officer who served as second-in-command aboard Gul Jasad's Galor-class cruiser in 2369.
Majut presented Jasad with the results of their sensor scans of Deep Space 9, which showed extensive armaments. When Jasad expressed his belief that it was a bluff, Majut suggested waiting for the Cardassian Fourth Order instead of risking a confrontation at the time. (DS9 episode & novelization: Emissary)
- The character was unnamed in his sole onscreen appearance (where he was played by Steve Rankin). The novelization gives his name as Majut, whereas the Customizable Card Game names him Jural.

Full Review
The lender SoFi is a relative newcomer to the robo-advisor industry, but in many respects competes — and even beats — top players. SoFi Automated Investing (formerly known as SoFi Wealth) charges no advisory or administrative fees and offers access to low-cost exchange-traded funds. The service includes unlimited access to a team of certified financial planners and complimentary career coaching.
SoFi Automated Investing is best for:
Beginning and younger investors.
Hands-off investors.
Investors who need financial planning guidance.
Cost-conscious investors.
Users with low balances.
SoFi Automated Investing at a glance
Where SoFi Automated Investing shines
Management and administrative fees: Since 2018, SoFi has charged no management fees. By comparison, major robo-advisors such as Wealthfront and Betterment charge 0.25% annually. SoFi Automated Investing also charges no administrative fees, not even for closing an account, making it very investor-friendly.
Broad range of low-cost investments: SoFi clients have a choice of 10 portfolios based on risk tolerance and investment objectives, using a diversified selection of low-cost ETFs that give exposure to U.S. stocks, international stocks, real estate, high-yield and Treasury bonds, as well as to specific countries and regions.
The cost of portfolios ranges from 0.03% to 0.08%, competitive with some of the cheapest robo-advisor portfolios out there, including those from Wealthfront and E-Trade Core Portfolios.
As with some of the most popular robo-advisors, SoFi Automated Investing provides automatic rebalancing. Every time money enters or leaves your account (for example, a deposit), SoFi checks your portfolio against the target allocation and rebalances it as close as possible. In addition, the advisor monitors your portfolio daily to see if it's more than five percentage points off-target and, if so, will adjust the portfolio back to the target.
Financial planning: SoFi stands out here. All clients have unlimited access to the company's financial advisors at no extra charge. These advisors are CFPs with the Series 65 designation (or similar), which holds them to a fiduciary standard that binds them to operate in your best interest. They're also noncommissioned advisors, meaning they don't make money off of specific trades or actions they recommend.
On top of this, advisors are available at a range of hours and through various contact methods. You can schedule a phone or video appointment between the hours of 10:00 a.m. and 7 p.m. Eastern time Monday through Friday. This is a great advantage for newer investors or those looking to access certified professionals.
Customer support for more technical issues is also available during an extended range of hours: Monday through Thursday, 7 a.m. to midnight Eastern; and Friday through Sunday, 7 a.m. to 8 p.m. Eastern.
High-interest savings: Like competitors Wealthfront and Betterment, SoFi offers a high-interest savings account. SoFi Money functions like a checking and savings account that pays 0.20% interest annually and carries up to $1.5 million in FDIC coverage, six times more insurance than the average bank account. SoFi Money also charges no account fees and offers unlimited reimbursement for ATM fees each month.
Special bonuses: SoFi offers bonuses to clients who invest at least $20 per month. These "members" can receive complimentary career coaching as well as members-only events like dinners and talks. They're also eligible for reduced interest rates on SoFi loans. If you already have your student loans or a mortgage with SoFi, or are planning on taking out a loan, extending your relationship with the company could be worth something extra to you.
Where SoFi Automated Investing falls short
No tax-loss harvesting: SoFi does not offer tax-loss harvesting, a service offered by many of its competitors that can reduce taxes owed on investment gains.
Limited track record: SoFi started up its robo-advisor platform in 2017, so it's among the newest kids on the block. That may give some investors pause, especially when larger players such as Wealthfront and Betterment have established track records.
Is SoFi Automated Investing right for you?
SoFi's free management is attractive compared other robo-advisors that charge a management fee of 0.25% or more. But it's especially enticing relative to competitors who charge significantly more and offer similar unlimited access to advisors, such as Ellevest Premium (which charges 0.50%) and Betterment Premium (0.40%).
With a broad range of low-cost ETFs, SoFi provides strong features for cost-conscious investors, especially those just starting out. These beginners are also more likely to find value in SoFi's member bonuses, particularly its career coaching and interest discounts on student loans.

Woodie Estate Conversion on the Standard 8!
Standard 8 Woodie by Jennings of Sandbach
My thanks are due to Colin Peak of the Woodie Car Club for another Woodie that I have never seen before:
We do a lot of research into former commercial coachbuilder companies, as they built hundreds of Woodies, most of which have long since been turned into woodworm food. However, we often come across interesting photos.
I came across the attached shot of a Standard 9 Woodie in a pile of Woodie photos from Jennings of Sandbach, looks a nicely proportioned car!
These gems keep turning up all the time as there were so many small coachbuilders knocking out Woodies in those early post war years that just when you think you've got the big picture some new piece of info or photo turns up. I've seen a couple of photos of Vanguard Woodies, but they were both poor quality and, as yet, I've no idea who built them.
The Woodie Car Club was formed in 2000 for the purpose of sharing information on the restoration and preservation of wooden-
Membership is open to anybody with an interest in Woodies and unlike many one make Clubs, the WCC caters for wide range of vehicles from British, European and American through to classic, phantom and modified Woodies. For more information visit www.woodiecarclub.com"
Webmaster's comment:
As this is a postwar car, as evidenced by the flat bonnet sides, this estate is based on the "8" as there was no postwar "9". The factory was building its own Woodie at the time, I think it was produced by Mulliners, though I await someone to confirm that. The principal differences are that this one has a higher roofline and two rear side windows. The rear of this estate also looks interesting -
Many thanks for the input, Colin, and I hope that someone might be able to come up with evidence of another?

Citizen Coke: The Making of Coca-Cola Capitalism by Bartow J. Elmore is another book I can recommend adding to your reading list and it's one you can pick up here. The quotes below are just a few of the interesting quotes I took away from it.
Coca-Cola was the world's most valuable brand in 2012. That year, the company was all over the map, operating in over two hundred countries and selling more than 1.8 billion beverage servings per day (one serving for every four people on earth).
Some have claimed that Coke was successful because it was a "want maker," ….. Coca-Cola's advertising and promotional campaigns transubstantiated the company's sugary beverage into "an old friend, a piece of everyday life, a talisman of America."
By the mid-twentieth century, Coke was the single largest buyer of sugar in the world, the largest global consumer of processed caffeine, the biggest commercial buyer of aluminum cans and plastic bottles in the nonalcoholic beverage industry, and a major water guzzler. It gorged on commodities in order to make profits.
The company became connected to numerous supply chains through corporate intermediaries counted among the biggest commercial titans of their day, including the Sugar Trust, Monsanto Chemical Company, Cargill, General Foods, Kraft, McDonald's, the Hershey Chocolate Company, and Stepan Chemical Company. Government played a large role, too. Federal agencies subsidized farmers to fuel the production of corn Coke needed to produce its sweeteners.
Ultimately, Coke's genius, its secret formula in many ways, was staying out of the business of making stuff.
By the end of the 2010s, Coca-Cola bottlers and retailers would use over 79 billion gallons of water annually to dilute Coke syrup. …. Considering the whole supply chain, Coke's water consumption in 2012 exceeded that of Sweden, Denmark, and Norway combined, enough to meet the annual cooking, cleaning, and drinking needs of over 2 billion people, or close to a quarter of the world's population.
Woodruff's strategy was by no means revolutionary, "If you can get somebody to do something better than you can do it yourself, it's always a good idea."
Coke's trademarks were worth over $6.7 billion in 2013.
Pepsi, not Coke, initiated the first major foray into the bottled tap water business, introducing its label Aquafina in 1994. Unlike other popular water companies of the time, such as Poland Spring or Perrier, who sourced their products at special springs, Pepsi decided to use purified local tap water for Aquafina, Aquafina, exploiting its widespread bottling network and its low-cost civic supplies.
A liter of Dasani at Kroger cost 1,935 times more than the same amount of water coming from a home faucet.
In the 1930s, the average American spent almost 25 percent of disposable income on food purchases, but by 2000, this figure dropped to roughly 10 percent. Americans were not suffering from want. They had all the food they could possibly desire. In this world of abundance, Coke was a particularly potent source of excess calories few Americans needed.

Apple Maps gets transit directions … finally
The problem is not always whether you know the way to San Jose, Cupertino or Grand Central Station but how to get there if you are not driving. And if you use Apple Maps you don't get much help. That's about to change.
New updates to Apple Maps in iOS 9 will offer transit directions that give users in various large cities a way to plot a route via mass transit.
Apple says it's 3.5 times faster the other mapping apps and has integrated transit directions into Siri.
The information will be available to users in San Francisco, New York, Baltimore, Chicago, Philadelphia, Washington DC, Mexico City, Toronto, London, Paris and Berlin, with other cities and regions to be added later. The service is also available in over 300 cities in China, including Beijing, Chengdu and Shanghai.
It supports step-by-step directions by public transit, telling you how to move around within transit systems.

Learn how to eat pussy and knock out the competition!
Sex is what brought us here. Without sex, you and I won't be here.
There is nothing cheap or dirty about sex. It is the attitude towards sex that makes it grading, sinful, dirty or beautiful and precious. It fulfills the function of procreation, it could also be a means to commit the most heinous crime.
It is important not only to be aware of our sexuality, we need to acknowledge its importance as a factor for a balanced life. It is the fire that keeps the flames of romance aglow, the strong fiber that keeps a relationship together against all odds, it is refreshing, it is healing.
Respect for sex add meaning to our human existence and relationships.
Fall in love and be in love. Only being in love a woman can be really happy.

Pick the Flicks: Call the shots at the Rio Theatre's upcoming film event
This month, Vancouver's beloved Rio Theatre will give fans the opportunity to choose what plays on their favourite local screen for one evening a month, extending into the summer season. The power of programming will be placed in the audience's hands through the new WannaWatch.it movie tracking and social website. Developed by 20 Year Media in Vancouver, the web application enables users to browse through current theatre, Netflix and iTunes listings and organize movie nights with friends and family. The Rio is utilizing the voting feature of the site that allows locals to dictate what they project on their screen for this community-driven series.
"One of the biggest challenges any indie movie theatre faces is programming based on what people actually want to see on the big screen," said Rachel Fox, programmer at Rio Theatre. "Being able to have fans of the Rio involved in the decision-making process is the best approach to programming because it's a win-win for everyone."
Over the next two weeks, Vancouver's cinephile community can mull over their favourite Philip Seymour Hoffman film and place their votes on the Rio's WannaWatch.it page. The movie with the most votes will be revealed closer to the event and the Rio will screen the people's choice on May 26 at 7 p.m. The first hundred voters will gain free entry on May 26, and all remaining attendees will be entered in a draw for movie tickets to future WannaWatchIt nights at the Rio. The intriguing element of the Rio's collaboration with 20 Year Media is seeing where the series will lead as a growing community on WannaWatch.it becomes more social and active on the site.
"We're really excited to be working with the Rio theatre to create new ways for the community to be a part of their local arts and culture scene," said Ryan Nadel, co-founder of 20 Year Media. "A movie theatre is about more than the latest hollywood blockbuster – it's about community and making movies social again. The Rio has always shared these values and we hope to encourage and enrich this experience through our technology platform at WannaWatch.it."
Programming By Demand: Bridging the Gap Between Exhibitors and Audiences
The Rio is excited to be a part of this unique, experimental project and anticipates an enthusiastic response from their supportive and vocal following. The people's choice series will invite moviegoers to weigh in on other crowd-chosen cult classics over the summer. 20 Year Media is eager to see how independent movie theatres like the Rio can innovate their business and empower the audience through WannaWatch.it's socially-driven technology.
20 Year Media's overarching goal is to encourage the responsive relationship between exhibitors and moviegoers and revive the thrill around movie nights that has been suffocated by Hollywood blockbuster culture. They have envisioned a streamlined, accessible platform that assists independent cinemas throughout North America with the heavy, and often unpredictable, task of mapping their film schedules. By giving film-lovers and exhibitors a simple and engaging forum to archive and organize their tastes and preferences, they hope to create a more seamless and community-centred movie distribution system for all parties involved.

About the Rio
Built in 1938, the independently owned and operated Rio Theatre is East Vancouver's premier multimedia venue, specializing in both cinema and live entertainment. Locals flock to the restored art-deco theatre for its diverse programming mix, which regularly features everything from late night cult classics, day-long movie and TV marathons, first-run Hollywood blockbusters and indie darlings to sci-fi themed burlesque or live comedy nights. A fully licensed bar, friendly staff and state-of-the-art digital projection with surround sound makes the Rio one of Vancouver's most treasured hubs for film and community events.
About 20 Year Media
Based in Vancouver, 20 Year Media builds technology and web applications that connect moviegoers and exhibitors through social data and a collaborative consumption platform. The company helps movie theatres capitalize on excess inventory by aggregating consumer demand for film content and directing audiences to the most appropriate and convenient screen – beginning with their favourite theatres. 20 Year's web application WannaWatch.it allows users to track over 12,000 movies across North American theatres, Netflix and iTunes databases. Film lovers can then connect with each other over similar preferences and easily organize their own movie nights.

This is the second part of looking at the lives of the most famous sailors that helped shape the world as we know it today. In part one we took sail with Christopher Columbus, Ferdinand Magellan and Francis Drake, who all took amazing voyages to discover new lands and find new sailing routes. In this blog we concentrate more on their successors, who took full advantage of the detailed information left behind by their predecessors and helped to create a brave new world.
John Paul Jones
This most famous American sea captain and naval officer was actually born in Scotland in 1742. As like many seamen of his generation he took to the seas at the tender age of thirteen and eight years later was a full captain and sailing the seas from British ports to the West Indies. During the American Revolution, Jones selected his side and joined the Continental Navy. Most of his successes against the British came in International waters and he commanded the pride of the American navy the Bonhomme Richard. Jones was accused of bragging in one famous sea battle against HMS Serapis, I have not yet begun to fight! Bizarrely, Jones later went on to serve in the Russian navy, making it the third country he served under.
Lord Horatio Nelson
Perhaps the most famous and one of the greatest naval commanders of all time was Admiral Lord Nelson. He was famed as one of the best naval tacticians ever to go into battle and had great personal bravery. He took to sea when he was twelve and by the time he was twenty he had his own ship. Bizarrely, Nelson suffered with sea-sickness the whole of his career which make his achievements quite staggering. His first major victories were against the Spanish in the Battle of Copenhagen and Cape Vincent. He will be ever remembered for the victory in the Battle of Trafalgar in which he lost his life.
James Cook
James Cook was the first captain to reach the east coast of Australia on board a European ship, the HMS Bark Endeavor, Cook landed in Botany Bay close to Sydney and went on to even greater discoveries in his long and fruitful lifetime as a ship's captain and adventurer. In his nautical lifetime, Cook went on to circumnavigate the globe twice, discover the Bering Strait and many of the Pacific Islands. He also navigated the difficult waters of the ice floes around Antarctica, in a way Cook was coloring in the blank spaces on the ocean charts with his detailing of little known waters. Perhaps the reason the Cook was so valuable in his explorations was that he was an excellent cartographer and could record his sea passages in great detail. Some of his maps are still used to this very day, he was highly trusted to discover uncharted territories and return back with detailed maps of the area. These pioneers of new techniques of naval warfare and map makers for the future, detailed naval history in an extraordinary period of seafaring history. They will be ever remembered for their courage and bravery of facing opponents in brutal battle as well as charting virgin waters.

On April 1, 2019, new cybersecurity requirements outlined in the NFA's Interpretive Notice to NFA Compliance Rules 2-9, 2-36 and 2-49 will come into effect. These new requirements apply to NFA Members, including registered futures commission merchants, commodity trading advisors, commodity pool operators, introducing brokers, retail foreign exchange dealers, and swap dealers. They are designed to "establish general requirements relating to Members' information systems security programs (ISSPs) but leave the exact form of an ISSP up to each Member." These ISSP obligations relate to, among others, approval and third-party cyber diligence (see our previous blog post).
Perhaps the most significant new obligation is the imposition of onerous breach notification requirements, which require NFA Members to notify the NFA "promptly" of any cybersecurity incident related to its commodity interest business that results in:
- any loss of customer or counterparty funds;
- any loss of an NFA Member's own capital; or
- the NFA Member providing notice to customers or counterparties under state or federal law.
It is that last scenario, the so-called "piggyback rule," that creates a very significant and often difficult to assess notification obligation, because there are now separate breach notification laws in all 50 U.S. states, as well as the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, Guam, and the U.S. Virgin Islands. There are also dozens of additional data breach notice obligations under various industry-specific state and federal laws, and these dozens of different laws are far from uniform. Indeed, they differ in several ways, including:
- what formats of data are covered (e.g., electronic or physical);
- what kinds of data are covered (e.g., personal information or business secrets);
- what constitutes personal information;
- what the trigger is for notification (e.g., unauthorized access to the data or rendering the data unavailable); and
- whether notification is only required if there is a risk of harm.
Moreover, these laws are routinely modified by formal amendment, judicial interpretation, or regulatory guidance.
NFA Members will, however, need to stay abreast of all of their various U.S. state and federal breach notification obligations, because of the piggy-back provision. As such, NFA Members should consider training and practice drills to ensure that they are able to meet these new notification obligations within a reasonable time period.
The Davis Polk Cyber Portal is available to Davis Polk clients to help them meet their cyber-related regulatory obligations, including the new NFA obligations. The Portal contains a query-based database of breach notification laws that allow Davis Polk clients to assess their breach notification obligations in a matter of minutes. If you have questions about the Portal, click on "Request access" in the top right corner at www.dpwcyberportal.com.

As an entrepreneur and local businesswoman, I see investing in other local businesses as an investment in the long-term well-being of our community. I try to avoid spending my hard-earned cash in chain pet stores whenever possible, which is easy to do because we have some great local businesses here which are convenient, affordable, and usually offer a higher quality product line than their "big box" competitors. Here are some of our favorite local pet retailers, please consider supporting them the next time your dog needs a new collar, leash, toy, or some new dog food! At all of these locations, I have found the staff to be exceptionally knowledgeable, friendly, and helpful.
The Houndstooth
The Houndstooth Bakery and Boutique is a bit outside of central Broome County and is located in between Bainbridge and Afton. Not only does the Houndstooth have a fantastic boutique offering home-made cookies, high quality kibble, canned, and pre-made raw foods, great books and gifts and toys, but Cassie and Jim are also probably the most knowledgeable pet retailers in the area. Cassie is a devoted reader of The Whole Dog Journal and other natural health care publications and it certainly shows in the attention to detail and assistance which she offers her customers.
Another bonus of The Houndstooth is their four-acre, fenced in dog park. There are separate sessions for large and small dogs. While the park is open to the public and free to use, you must pre-register in the store and get your number before using the park. Behavior at the park is monitored by other users and the owners – the rules are clearly posted, please follow them!
In addition to a great shop, and a great dog park, Cassie offers occasional seminars from experts in both holistic health and positive training. When the weather is nice, you may also find puppy classes and lure coursing being offered.
Finally, this is a great place to board your dogs. If I had to board my dogs, I would board them here. For more information on their pet cottages, check out The Houndstooth Bed and Barkery Page. Clients are treated to their own temperature control cabins with personal fenced in yards. They don't have many cottages, so book early!
Creature Comforts
Creature Comforts, located on Upper Front Street in Binghamton, unfortunately does not have a website I can refer you to!
This is a fairly good locally owned pet store. I'm not a huge fan of animals or fish for sale, but they do carry a lot of great products and, I'm excited to report, now offer a limited supply of pre-made frozen raw foods for dogs. They also have a nice selection of kibble, canned foods, treats, toys, chews, beds, collars, harnesses, and leashes for dogs. Nice staff, always happy to answer a question or give your dog a treat (best of all, they ask first!).
If you shop here frequently, be sure to get a Creature Comforts card so you can receive discounts on your purchases!
Binghamton Agway
Binghamton Agway – located on Broad Avenue on Binghamton's East side. I go to this place a lot because I live on the East Side. They do not have an extensive selection of pet supplies, but they're convenient for me, have reasonable prices, and do carry some great kibbles, canned food, Red Barn chews, and have some nice toys.
They are also the only other supplier I know in the area (besides our classroom) that offers the Red Barn food rolls we recommend at class. I'm a big fan of the Chicken and Chicken liver formula but have found that the Beef and Lamb formulas crumble into dust too easily in my treat bag!
I admit, I haven't shopped at other local Agways, so I can only comment on Binghamton's store. If you have experience with other local Agways, please leave them in the comments!
Endicott Feed & Tack
Endicott Feed and Tack You can find directions on their home page. I admit I haven't been to Endicott Feed and Tack in a while but when I left last I was impressed with their selection of high quality commercial pet foods.
I used to like this place because they carried a lot of Natura products, which I once loved. Since Natura has been bought out by Proctor & Gamble, a company known for manufacturing notoriously low-quality pet foods, I can no longer recommend Natura products. It seems as though they carry Canidae, and I know a lot of people feed that successfully. If you're ok with Diamond as a pet food manufacturer, Taste of the Wild can be a great, affordably priced grain-free food which many dogs do very well on.
Did I miss any local pet retailers that you love? If so, please post in the comments. Happy shopping!
