|Panelists speak during an open hearing on the government's proposed progressive electricity pricing system reform in Gwanghwamun, Seoul, Monday. Korea Times photo by Bae Woo-han

The state-run company is increasingly frustrated with the controversial government plan to relax the progressive electric billing system ahead of the summer, charging users less than in the past even if they consume power extensively, for example to run their air conditioning, it said. Last summer, many households were angry with the government over higher utility bills.
Lower utility bills for households mean lower revenue for KEPCO, which has already been reeling from mounting losses over the past two years amid the Moon administration's anti-nuclear energy policy.
During an open hearing on the government's proposed progressive electricity pricing system reform Tuesday, KEPCO operations department head Kwon Ki-bo said the firm will reveal "what comprises the cost for electric power in the second half of the year" and unveil different costs for different types of electricity, such as for industrial and household uses.
Currently, KEPCO is revealing "the overall cost" for electricity once a year, but has not disclosed respective costs for the industrial, household and agricultural sectors and for other purposes.
Kwon's remark came after KEPCO posted an operating loss of 208 billion won ($176 million) last year which is attributable to the Moon government's policy to phase out nuclear power.
Despite the losses, the three proposed reforms for the electricity pricing system revealed Monday were all about cutting the power rate, incurring up to 300 billion won in additional costs for KEPCO.
The analysts said this is what led the power company to announce it plans to show why it is piling up losses, without prior consultation with the government. KEPCO said it has been urging the energy ministry to disclose the details of the costs, but did not consult with the ministry before Tuesday's announcement.
"The move seems to be a sign of KEPCO's frustration that it cannot endure any more losses," said Lee Duck-hwan, a professor at Sogang University.
"When the cost structure is disclosed, all unreasonable pricing factors, such as industrial power being more expensive than household power, will come to light. And this will trigger massive criticism from not only domestic shareholders but also foreign investors."
KEPCO is listed on Korea's KOSPI and the New York Stock Exchange.
"The government's misunderstanding is that KEPCO is not just a firm under its control. KEPCO is a listed firm having shareholders other than the government. The announcement seems to be KEPCO's expression that it has to take care of other shareholders and follow market logic."
The state-run Korea Development Bank is the largest shareholder in KEPCO with 32.9 percent, followed by overseas investors with 27.07 percent and the government with 18.2 percent.
During the hearing, a number of disgruntled KEPCO investors argued that the power company should not shoulder burdens stemming from the government's proposed electricity rate cut, denouncing the administration for employing a "populist policy."
One of the investors threatened that individual KEPCO investors will jointly file a suit against KEPCO management on the charge of breach of trust.
"The government's proposed electricity rate reform plans are designed to encourage energy consumption by lowering the rate," Lee said. "In that case, there should be a plan for increasing the supply, but there is no such thing. If the rate is reformed as proposed, KEPCO will suffer difficulties in supplying enough power especially under the Moon government's post-nuclear and post-coal policies."

They are products obtained from the processing of burning of clay-minerals, and may or may not be enamelled. They can be applied to floors and walls, depending on their specific characteristics.
- Easy to clean
- Hygienic and anti-allergic
- Waterproof
- Durable and sturdy
- Anti-flammable
- Huge range of design and paving
- Color Stability
- Ceramic coatings, if properly specified and seated according to the recommended technique, will provide an environment with long lasting finish, beauty and tranquility.
The mass is the result of the mixing of several milled and homogenized minerals into a liquid mass (Babotina). Subsequently, this liquid mass is transformed into granulated mass, pressed, enameled, decorated and finally burned.
Like the mass, the enamel typology directly influences the properties of the product.
It is of fundamental importance, to be able to specify (choose the appropriate product) and set the product correctly, to have a good knowledge of the technical characteristics and performance of the ceramic coating, which will be applied to the floor or wall.
Currently ceramic tiles are classified by Water Absorption Groups in accordance with the ISO 13006 quality standard. The classification according to the absorption group is shown in the table below.
Click on the link below to know the main guidelines regarding the reception and storage of ceramic tiles.
To ensure the durability of the coatings and the satisfaction with the final result is necessary to follow the technical standards of settlement. Failures in the application can cause numerous problems, altering the expected final result, even compromising the aesthetic characteristics of the product.
For the setting of porous coatings of the water absorption group BIII (tile for wall application) Incepa recommends that the product should be seated with an ACI type mortar. It is important to contact the mortar manufacturers for better technical guidance.
For technical reasons, all ceramic products have small curvatures, which are typical of ceramic tiles. However, the degree of these curvatures is governed by national and international quality technical standards.
The products produced by Incepa have much more rigid curvature limits than these standards, which enables the customer to purchase products with the lowest market sealing joints and, consequently, greater satisfaction with the final result of the application.
They are joints that should be left between the floor plates. These joints aim to minimize the appearance of application imperfections (step formation and compensate for size variations between parts) and help accommodate base and ceramic plate movements.
The minimum laying joints for coverings (walls) and floors are shown in the table below.
In order to avoid the appearance of problems such as the formation of a "step" between the pieces or the displacement that may be caused by the movement of the base or due to climatic variations, it is important that some joints are executed during the application of the ceramic products
Due to the natural curvatures of the ceramic products Incepa recommends, in cases of misapplied application, that they be applied with maximum lashing of 15% (1 / 4 of the part) as shown in the following figure.
For application of wall to wall it is necessary that the product is seated with a special mortar for this type of settlement (overlapping). It is important to contact the mortar manufacturers for better technical guidance in this regard.
It is the penetration of water inside the ceramic mass caused by the existing porosity. It directly influences mechanical resistance, ice resistance and impact. The lower the porosity, the lower the water absorption.
After the burning the ceramic product presents small spaces between the particles of minerals that compose it, called pores. The amount of pores that the dough (biscuit) presents is what determines the level of water absorption. The mass shall be classified by the technical standards according to the absorption.
Classification of Water Absorption Groups according to ISO 13006.
Greasing is the name given to cracks that occur on the glazed surface of the ceramic coating. The moisture expansion (UPS) is the major responsible for the cracking.
The ceramic coatings (wall) have a slight positive curvature (convexity) so that the enamel is under compression, thus avoiding the appearance of cracking in the future.
All floors Puro Grés and Porcelain tiles Incepa have high resistance to cracking due to very low moisture expansion.
The process by which the ceramic coatings pass to their manufacture can cause slight variations in the color of the product between a lot and another of manufacture. These small variations are separated by shades.
In order to obtain a satisfactory application it is important that in each environment, the same color is applied, ie it is recommended that the parts be purchased in a single color (single manufacturing lot). Therefore, it is recommended that the purchase of all the product that will be applied in an environment is made in the same purchase.
The tone code in use by Incepa always consists of two letters. Example: MA, NA, CJ, DJ, MO, FO, KD, ED, etc.
Important: Whenever the factory produces a product with a previously obtained tone, the code will be the same as that of the previous production (always respecting the existing standards).
In the carton label the codes are recorded identifying the various classifications of the product, including identifying the hue of the ceramic product.
In the ceramic tile production process, due to the typical characteristics of this material, there may be minimum size variations, which are separated as calibers (sizes).
The products produced by Incepa have limits of variation of size that are much more rigid than national and international quality technical standards, which enables the customer to purchase products with the smallest market settling joints and, consequently, greater satisfaction with the end result of the application.
Incepa uses characters to identify the tracks, one character for each size range:
In the boxes label the codes are recorded identifying the various classifications of the product.
It is the increase of the size of the ceramic plate by the prolonged contact with the humidity or with the marked variation of temperature.
IMPORTANT: The use of application joints between expansion joints and joints (see Important Recommendations - Wall Mounting Orientation) must be used both on the wall and on the floor to absorb these variations, thus avoiding problems such as detachment of the plates or structural cracks.
Check out some advantages of Flat Edge products:
- Best aesthetic finish in relation to products without Flat Edge
- Effect of the rectified product applied, with greater ease of handling
- Better cost-effectiveness compared to rectified products
Perfect sizes for floors and walls
In series production of ceramic parts there may be minimal size variations. When the design requires a uniform aesthetics, the rectified product is recommended and undergoes a perfect cutting process that guarantees the exact dimensions of the pieces.
Recognize when a product is rectified:
Perfect cut around the parts that allows precise alignment and allows the use of a minimum joint of 1 mm between the parts.
Dry joint, uniform appearance
It is the application of the product without spaces between the pieces. The Dry Joint provides the effect of a single plate, where the splice between the pieces is not noticeable. In the case of pellet products, all grooves in the middle of the parts must be grooved.
Grooved products:
To maintain the desired aesthetic effect, products such as Patina and Cittá should be sealed with a dry joint. In addition, all grooves must be grooved.

It is a ceramic coating with thickness 30% thinner than conventional products. Ceramic tiles with only 6mm allow application on old coatings as well as new interior walls. With the application of the EASY WALL INCEPA on the old coatings there is no need for breakage or demolition. In addition to the reform being faster and more practical, it greatly reduces the volume of dirt and debris from the work. Not to mention the economy of time. Easy wall to wall of Incepa.

I am fascinated by the continuous repetition of line and strong contrast between orange and black. The choice of orange in this case I think is especially successful as orange is considered the brightest colour. Although the artist used the line to create multiple curves and bends, the sequence and repetition is kept continuous in the work, and in this way both organic and geometric shapes meet in one pattern. I think, this is a lot more enriched and versatile than a pattern consisting of solid geometry.
Curves and sequence interact in the way that these visually push certain areas of the work forward (towards the viewer), whereas pull other areas backwards (into the background). This visual effect creates a relief and a sense of trick behind the work, which must be challenging the viewer's imagination.

Key Symbols in the Dominican Tradition
This badge was brought to Australia by the Dominican Community which came from Dun Laoghaire, Ireland, in 1867. In their tradition there were various versions of the emblem incorporating the same elements eg colours, globes, etc. This depiction was drawn in the first Annals on their arrival. It remained the crest of some of the older communities and of the schools founded before that time.
Chronology of the Crest
- Early in the 15th century the Order adopted a single black and white shield, representing joy and penance.
- In the mid 15th century the 8-point star was added, representing compass points. The star is also a symbol of light and divine revelation. Dominicans are committed to bringing the light of truth to the whole world.
- Later in the 15th century, the amount of black on the shield was lessened to allow for the addition of the palm branch and lily. The palm, a symbol of Christian martyrdom, also represents those who give witness of their lives to God The lily is considered a symbol of purity and dedication.
- After the Reformation, in the 17th century, when the Order was trying to regroup, the dog appeared on the badge, holding a burning torch in its mouth. The dog, lighting up the world with truth, was an ancient rendering of a vision that Dominic's mother was said to have experienced. The dog was also a play on words of 'Domini-canes' – Dominicans – in translation from the Latin – hounds of the Lord.
- Later in the century the book of the Scriptures was added to remind Dominicans that the message of the Gospels cannot be taught unless it has first been studied.
- Around the same time the crown was moved from the body of the shield to the top, and a glove of the world was added in its place, representing the peoples of the world whom members of the Order were sent to evangelise.
- In the 18th and 19th centuries, the badge underwent various changes, depending on the circumstances and particular spirituality of a group, congregation or province. The cross of the traditional shield now appeared protruding from the back, since there was no room in front, and became an appendage from which to hang the rosary beads. The word 'Veritas' was also added.
- The badge became so cluttered with symbols that many branches of the Dominican Family have adopted the simpler earlier badge.
(E Hellwig OP, 2003)

I don't normally name my quilts. I don't give names to my car or my sewing machine either. I'm terrible at remembering people's names too.
This quilt however, has always been 'broken'. When I first started it many months ago a friend of mine was going through a pretty bad patch, her life was spiralling out of control and my 'happy' image of a red and white log cabin quilt went out of the window and this emerge instead.
It felt very cathartic at the time.
Lots of 1 1/2 wide strips in white, black, red and grey. I didn't want the quilting to be in the way but at the same time I wanted it heavily quilted so I matched the threads to the fabric.
Except when I didn't. Because life does throw curve balls at you sometimes.
I'd like to hang it somewhere, but there's not a free wall in this house... and really red and black are not my colours...

The Fall into Self Absorption
In Hebrew, the phrase 'the eyes of both of them were opened' can be correctly interpreted in our English comprehension today as:
'Then they became aware of themselves.'
Before this pivotal moment awareness of one's self was non-existent. That is phenomenal! Notice closely how the second half of this verse confirms this.
'So they sewed fig leaves together to make themselves loincloths.'
First of all fig leaf was a ridiculous choice of covering. Neither hardy nor even comfy. Later in verse 21, God makes them fitting cloths to accommodate their new self aware self. Sturdy and comfortable. Yet it cost an innocent life. Self absorption always cost a life! Secondly, they had never before this moment even thought to 'make something for themselves'. It simply wasn't needed, desired, or known; this idea of making something for oneself or of one's self. They did die in that moment. Not from our human perspective after the fall. Death means one ceases to exist, physically present to touch and be. Yet to Adonai, the death was that now we had the capacity to live like we were the most important thing to consider. True life has no need to consider itself. This is why Yeshua was able to say so simply: "Do not consider/worry about what you will eat or what you will wear." Really what He was saying was 'don't think about yourself.' Self absorption kills life. Envy, jealousy, hatred, rage, greed; these things killed Yeshua, these things killed many and still do. These things are prime examples of how everything around one becomes all about them. Worry grows where contentment was planted. Considering oneself becomes the cancer, all of humanity was infected by it. There's no scripture that says, think about yourself, not one. In every scripture that refers to a personal inventory, it's God who is the one considering us, cleansing us, making us new. We are told to consider our actions, namely how they will – first of all reflect and effect Adonai, – secondly how they will effect others. How they effect us is determined by the result of Adonai and others coming before or after one own self. Most of us know it's usually ugly if it's after.
Let's fast forward to the next pivotal moment. Where Yeshua (Jesus) points out the key to following Him.
John 15:9-14
Just as My Father has loved Me, I too have loved you; so stay in My love. If you keep My commands, you will stay in My love – just as I have kept My Father's commands and stay in His love. I have said this so that My joy may be in you, and your joy be complete. This is My command: that you keep on loving each other just as I have loved you. No one has greater love than a person who lays down his life for his friends. You are My friends, if you do what I command you.
I say somewhat loosely that this is a pivotal moment. On one hand every Word that came from Yeshua's lips was pivotal. Yet here we see Him adress the first pivotal moment in the beginning where self absorption took hold. No, He doesn't mention Genesis 3. Not like we in our reference minded ways tend to do. From the Hebraic mind that moment was never needed to be recalled only on occasion. That moment was the focus of all misdeeds in the whole of history. It was never forgotten, always in the mind of those who sought after and followed the One True God. Yeshua spoke from history at every point in the present for the future. He covered every aspect of time in every Word He spoke. He is, was, and always will be infinite! Our minds do not naturally process this way. It requires the Holy Spirit to even begin to. Hence why so often Yeshua said, "He who has ears let him hear." In essence He was anointing each soul at the moment to be opened, much like the eyes were opened at the fruit-fall but in reverse. To become more aware of one's self will never be the goal of God's Kingdom. Let your communion with God be where you get your revelation time for your own self – from His eyes only, who we are, what needs changed – there is no condemnation but more importantly – there's no focus on one's self. Self help is evil as there is no such thing. We could no more help ourselves than we can dance and the rain pours. If man kind wants to be 'bettered', to improve upon what they are in and of themselves, it will take God alone to conceive a new perception in the heart and mind of us all. For only in Him can our love become true love, our kindness true kindness, selfless and unaccounting.
I've known only a few people whom I would consider having been given the gift of love. It's as natural as breathing for them to drop anything for someone without thinking of inconvenience or their own self. Without accounting what they do for who and especially with no expectation of any return. The majority of us, if honest, will admit that it takes work to weed those ugly things out with the help of the Spirit of God. Not that the joy Yeshua speaks of isn't an instant reward. Most people I know really feel joy at helping another, giving to someone. Yet we must remember what the thief comes to steal in God's Kingdom. Joy. How does he do it? By bringing back to mind awareness of self. Expectation creeps in, resentment erodes gratitude and begins to take account of time lost, energy expelled, feelings hurt, thank you's not expressed, love not returned. In other words the fig leaves of self absorption begin to find their ways into our hands and not even a second has elapsed before we find we sew to cover what our God created soul automatically knows is shameful.
Look at the difference between these two pictures.
They say a picture speaks a thousand words. In application to what we've covered so far, what do these pictures say to you? It's a lifestyle and total change in thinking in every way. The difference will astound you. One is community and selflessness. The other is convenience and self centered. One invest in the currency of the Kingdom of heaven, the other invest in the things that rust and moth destroy. One is the way of this world, my house, my life, my responsibilities, my needs, my timing, my opinion, my rights. One is the way of God in this world. Where we live, we have responsibilities, we have needs, we have time to give, energy to share. Where my heart is not settled until those around me are better fed than I.
What would the world be like, according to the Father and Yeshua's ways? The question has been asked, written about, talked about forever. Yet we can not read, study and listen our way into application. What can you do to enter in, now, where you are, today? This is always the purpose of the question. The purpose of such writings and talks. Action, trust in action, love in action, our walk with God evident by what becomes a natural flow from the Spirit from our union with Yeshua. His coming is imminent. Yet, the mission, the call, – has not changed. We wait, we look for Him. But we do so by looking at others. The church is failing in this. The average Believer is failing in this. So the world looks like a empty plot with cranes lifting heavy objects into place for one person at a time, for physical comfort and individual needs and wants. Completely clueless of the neighbor, unaware of the Father's heart breaking. The Father who made all things, for the purpose of love. Not self reliance.
I leave off with a small handful of the Word that shares this view. From the beginning of our Bible to the end, Adonai, over and over again, points to this fundamental element of His heart. It would be wise for anyone desiring to enter into that Heart to look every single one of them up and ask the Living Word to breath this life into their soul, to again go back to the garden – where self absorption was non-existent. Discovery of God and all He did, does and desires to do is the only thing that matters. May we all be shaped by the wind of His mouth in it! Again just like at the beginning – where He said: "Let there be Light!" And there was!
Galatians 6:2
Bear one another's burdens – in this way you will be fulfilling the Torah's true meaning, which the Messiah upholds.
Philippians 2:3-4
Do nothing out of rivalry or vanity; but, in humility, regard each other as better than yourselves – look out for each other's interest not just your own.
1 John – the entire book.
Proverbs 21:21
He who pursues righteousness and kindness finds life, prosperity, and honor.
Proverbs 28:27
He who gives to the poor will lack nothing, but he who hides his eyes will get curses in plenty.
Proverbs 29:13
The poor and the oppressor have this in common: Adonai gives light to the eyes of both.
All of Matthew chapter 6.
All of Isaiah chapter 5.
Deuteronomy 10:12-21
So now, Israel, all that Adonai your God asks from you is to fear Adonai your God, follow His ways, love Him and serve Adonai your God with all your heart and all your being; to obey for your own good, the mitzvah (general principles for living) and regulations of Adonai which I am giving you today. See, the sky, the heaven beyond the sky, the earth and everything on it all belong to Adonai your God. Only Adonai took enough pleasure in your ancestors to love them and choose their descendants after them – yourselves – above all people's, as He does today. Therefore, circumcise the foreskin of your heart; and don't be stiff necked any longer! For Adonai your God is God of gods and Lord of lords, the great, mighty, and awesome God, who has no favorites and accepts no bribes. He secures justice for the orphan and the widow; He loves the foreigner, giving him food and clothing. Therefore, you are to love the foreigner, since you were foreigners in the land of Egypt. You are to fear Adonai your God, serve Him, cling to Him and swear by His Name. He is your praise and He is your God, who has done for you these great and awesome things, which you have seen with your own eyes.
Deuteronomy 15:7-11
If someone among you is needy, one of your brothers, in any of your towns in your land which Adonai your God is giving you, you are not to harden your heart or shut your hand from giving to your needy brother. No, you must open your hand to him and lend him enough to meet his need and enable him to obtain what he wants. Guard yourself against allowing your heart to entertain the mean-spirited thought that because the seventh year, the year of sh'mittah (release) is at hand, you would be stingy toward your needy brother and not give him anything; for then he may cry out to Adonai against you, and it will be your sin. Rather, you must give to him; and you are not to be grudging when you give to him. If you do this, Adonai your God will bless you in all your work, in everything you undertake – for there will always be poor people in the land. That is why I am giving you this order, ' You must open your hand to your poor and needy brother in your land.'
Micah 6:8
Human being, you have already been told what is good, what Adonai demands of you – no more than to act justly, love grace and walk in purity with your God.
I will forever be grateful the Lord led me to Mr. George McDonald's writings. The best thing I've ever read about 'Self' has been written by his hand. See link below.
✡ May the grace and peace of Yeshua the Messiah be found in us, dying to ourselves and living fully in Him with each passing day in 2018! ✡
Frosty breath
Crisp blue skies
The hush of winter lullabyes
Drawing down to warmer protective interiors
Where Adonai reigns supreme
The season of rest
His ruling breath
O coat my soul
With Your fire
Color this inner chamber
With Your desire
Plant the permanent flowers of peace
That no earthly changes can cease
Shelter me in Your radiant will
And teach me the wisdom
Of Peace, be still.
(2017- by Lisa VanValkenburgh)
Isaiah 55:8-13
"For My thoughts are not your thoughts, and your ways are not My ways," says Adonai. "As high as the sky is above the earth are My ways higher than your ways, and My thoughts than your thoughts. For just as rain and snow fall from the sky and do not return there, but water the earth, causing it to bud and produce, giving seed to the sower and bread to the eater; so is My Word that goes out from My mouth – it will not return to Me unfulfilled; but it will accomplish what I intend, and cause to succeed what I sent it to do."
Yes, you will go out with joy, you will be led forth in peace. As you come, the mountains and hills will burst into song, and all the trees in the countryside will clap their hands. Cypresses will grow in place of thorns, Myrtle will grow instead of briars. This will bring fame to Adonai as an eternal sign, imperishable sign.
Job 37:5-7;9-13
God thunders wonderfully with His voice, He does great things beyond our understanding. He says to the snow, 'Fall on the earth!' – likewise to the light rain, also to the downpour. He brings all human activity to a stop, so that everyone He has made can know it.
Out of its chamber comes the storm, with cold out of the north. By the breath of God, ice is given and wide waters freeze over. He weighs the clouds down with moisture, and they flash forth His lightning. He, by His plans, turns them around, so they do what He commands them anywhere on earth; He brings them forth on the earth sometimes to punish, sometimes to express His grace.
✡ May the season of rest and shalom be richly poured out into you by the power of Yeshua the Messiah, and for His namesake! ✡
A Time to Search and a Time to Give Up
It struck me as odd as I read chapter 3 of Ecclesiastes that no one really teaches the meaning of the more negative aspects of the "a time to…" section. I read it and said "Really, God, YOU have appointed times to give up!?" The searching part is more easily found among countless scriptures to seek, search and so on. So what does this mean that there is a time when God appoints one to give up?
I think the temptation is to put a more 'spiritually positive spin' on it. Such as; give up sin, bad attitudes, bad habits, control over people places or things and the like. Yet this entire passage does not give merit to such a perspective.
A time to search, a time to give up…
It seems to me it indicates giving up a search. Or to cease to seek out. To stop turning over rocks, digging for water, even looking for solutions. I think every moment is appointed for us to give up the more positively spun rhetoric (sin and the like). But here again, this passage seems to be saying – these are specifically appointed times. After all we only die once. We are only born once (well twice if we truly become a follower of Yeshua). We plant once a year, we uproot once a year. All of these are seasonal. In fact some interpretations or versions of the Bible say "For everything there is a season" – mine does. It also reads…"A right time for every intention under heaven". Seasons and intentions are progressive and developmental. Our flesh is always, timelessly, being asked to give up sin and so on. While these may have aspects of progression and development they are not seasonal. Or are they? Is there a time/season appointed under heaven to give up searching for righteousness? Searching for doing good – to everyone – friend or foe?
In so asking of Yeshua to teach me the answer to this question, a series of months went by. You could say three seasons. I was taught not with words but a series of circumstances that never yielded any fruit except when I literally gave up trying harder to seek, search and try harder to be good. It has been the strangest experience in my walk with God so far.
I will continue my thoughts further. For now, I wonder, what has He taught you about giving up – as it is referred to in Ecclesiastes 3? I'm not so sure it's an answer that is sought out in correct context. Therefore the finding of any answer is rather given than found. Which I find is how wisdom is obtained for the most part. It's something we seek (search for) but only God – whose ways are not ours and thoughts are not like ours – gives wisdom.
Now more than ever we all need wisdom. It's given, not earned. He makes Himself found by us as we seek Him. There is nothing in us worthy enough to plot a map out to find Him. We do not endure such a search without Him. We give up too easy. At least that's been my experience. Even when I thought I didn't give up, He shows me every time where I do and did, if ever so slightly in measure. Pride is a sneaky thing.
Yet my greatest comfort in such thoughts is that I know nothing can snatch me from His hands. Nothing can stop Him from teaching me through times/seasons. Not even me.
✡ Grace and peace in Yeshua the Messiah ✡

On an average the Indian market has given a 19% return in the last financial year that is the 3rd highest return after Egypt & Brazil who gave the better returns. The underlying is how many made the money because the markets where volatile , ruthless and driven by crisis over the year.
Wondering whether the 20 golden rules holds true for today's market scenario :
- Your investor's edge is not something you get from Dalal/Wall Street experts. It's something you already have. You can outperform the experts if you use your edge by investing in companies or industries you already understand.
- Over the past 3 decades, the stock market has come to be dominated by a herd of professional investors. Contrary to popular belief, this makes it easier for the amateur investor. You can beat the market by ignoring the herd.
- Often there is no correlation b/w success of a company's operations and the success of its stock over a few months or even years. In the long-term there is 100% correlation b/w the success of the company and the success of the stock. This disparity is the key to making money: it pays to be patient, and to own successful companies.
- You have to know what you own, and why you own it. "This baby is a clinch to go up!" dosen't count.
- Long shots almost always miss the mark

The Stranger
College is the time to drink too much beer, pull all-nighters, write papers about Existentialism and become obsessed with one of your school's band of heartthrobs. Luckily for all of us who've completed those golden years, we can still reap the benefits of local college music acts. Seattle has a particularly burgeoning electronica ("dormwave") scene, and fans can access their tunes via downloads, file sharing and all the networks in place within college campuses. The Stranger highlights five local acts to keep your eyes and ears on: Beat Connection (University of Washington), Kid Presentable (University of Washington), Chocolate Chuck (University of Washington), Cedaa (Western Washington University) and Leftist Nautical Antiques (Whitworth University).

I take a wolf's rib and whittleit sharp at both endsand coil it upand freeze it in blubber and place it outon the fairway of the bears.

A wolf's mouth is always covered with blood even if it did not steal its prey.
It is better to be torn to pieces than to become a wolf's prey.
It's a wolf's repentance and a fox's ignorance.
Legs help a rabbit to survive, teeth are responsible for the wolf's [survival], and cunning takes care of the fox.

JOKINGLY, BUT WITH EARNEST UNDERTONES, the return of the Swedish art world's lost son Daniel Birnbaum came with expectations some dubbed the Birnbaum Effect. Between the anticipatory chatter, newspaper articles, and subterranean hearsay, the Moderna Museet's new director comes off as a nearly celestial being from whom most anticipate miracles, and the continuous question on everyone's lips is, What is he going to do? Naturally, in light of the international status Birnbaum is enjoying in the wake of his accomplishments at the Venice Biennale and Frankfurt's Städelschule, a palpable suspense is alive in Stockholm, reminiscent of the time,
nine years ago, when the Museet's former director Lars Nittve returned
here from Tate Modern. The scarcity of Swedish curators and museum directors who have become distinguished abroad is evident, and when one of the few victoriously returns from battle it is cause for much celebration and expectation. Coinciding, earlier this month, with the week when Rirkrit Tiravanija was awarded the second annual Absolut Art Award, Birnbaum's first week on the job was an eventful one.
On his fourth day as director, an impromptu panel was organized to take advantage of all the luminaries in town. Museums don't usually act with such spontaneity, so this may be a clue to Birnbaum's new approach. Birnbaum and Christine Macel, chief curator of the Pompidou, took part in a conversation moderated by Molly Nesbit that drew a small crowd and centered for the most part around what museums in fact are. The exchange, which loosely addressed that persistent question of Birnbaum's plans for his new institutional home, concerned more experimental shows, alluding for instance to the exhibition "She" curated by legendary former Moderna Museet director Pontus Hultén, and also interrogated the contextual circumstances of contemporary art in institutions blessed with prominent historical collections. The conversation indicated an openness to other, future extemporaneous events whenever an opportunity presents itself, which may now occur more often thanks to said Birnbaum Effect. Equally important, longtime Moderna Museet curator Ann-Sofi Noring was presented as the first-ever vice-director of the museum, which will no doubt be attended by its own splendid Noring Effects.
The Absolute Art Award was bestowed on Tiravanija that same evening. The private dinner inaugurating Absolut's elegant new space on Drottninggatan was pleasant and exceedingly well attended. Distinguished guests including artists Elizabeth Peyton and Michael Joo; curators Beatrix Ruf and Nicolas Bourriaud; and dealers Chantal Crousel, José Kuri, Brian Butler, and Burkhard Riemschneider had been flown to town to face the imminent Swedish winter and to mingle with a careful selection of invited local arts professionals such as dealer Aldy Milliken, artists Fredrik Söderberg and Christine Ödlund, curator Sinziana Ravini, and Bonniers Konsthall director Sara Arrhenius. Also present were Jutta Koether and Klara Lidén, both of whom were particular foci of attention that evening, given that each would be the subject of a solo exhibition at the Moderna Museet this spring.
The following evening, the museum played host to Birnbaum's official homecoming party, where Tiravanija, with temporary sous-chef Tobias Rehberger, cooked pad thai with meatballs; Karl Holmqvist read; Mai Ueda chanted; and Arto Lindsay played. Some of the performers were obviously better suited to the festive context than others. Holmqvist eventually overpowered most of the comparatively indifferent guests using the classic trick of, well, speaking up, yet it seemed that some of the attendees still remained oblivious to the wonderful work The Future Home of Chrome. Ueda employed similar tactics of volume to get attention from the failing crowd, but by far the most exorbitant performer was Lindsay, who, toward the end, as he and his guitar produced a spectacular pandemonium, forced some guests out of the room and, furthermore, out of the building. The party offered drinks courtesy of Tiravanija's award provider, and the performances were, for a number of patrons, clearly less important than the cocktails, while socializing seemed to be the primary objective for almost everyone.
For some, this is simply par for the course for the Birnbaum Effect, and the interaction between the local and the international scene at parties is welcome. But does it mean that what happens in Stockholm will echo more prominently beyond Scandinavia, or does it instead suggest that the international circuit will simply come to town more frequently? It might create new prospects for Swedish culture in general. However, engaging projects with local organizations such as Site magazine and the journal OEI, a genuine interest in more experimental exhibitions, and a recontextualizing of the historic works in the collection alongside contemporary art—all tactics that were hinted at during the initial panel—might reverberate more significantly both here and abroad. Now, after the salutary kick-off week is done, and without any awards ceremonies or parties to attend, there is the opportunity to let all the potential sink in.
— Ronald Jones and Theodor Ringborg

What is Levered Free Cash Flow (LFCF)?
Levered free cash flow (LFCF) is the amount of money a company has left remaining after paying all of its financial obligations. Levered free cash flow is important to both investors and company management, because it is the amount of cash that a company can use to pay dividends to shareholders and/or to make further investments in growing the company's business. The amount of levered cash flow a company has can be negative even though operating cash flow is positive. This occurs when the amount of operating cash flow a company generates is insufficient to cover all of the financial obligations.
Understanding Levered Free Cash Flow
Levered free cash flow is a measure of a company's ability to expand its business and to pay returns to shareholders using only the money generated through current operations. It may also be used as an indicator of a company's ability to obtain additional capital through financing. If a company already has a significant amount of debt, and has little in the way of a cash cushion after meeting its obligations, it may be difficult for the company to obtain additional financing from a lender. If, however, a company has a healthy amount of levered free cash flow, it then becomes a more attractive investment and a a low risk borrower from the perspective of lenders.
Levered free cash flow is the opposite of unlevered free cash flow (UFCF), which is the amount of cash a company has prior to paying its bills, such as operating expenses and debt payments. Both figures may appear in a company's cash flow report, but levered free cash flow is considered the more important figure for investors to watch, since it is a better indicator of the actual level of a company's profitability.
Key Takeaways
- Levered free cash flow is the money that is left over when all the bills from a company's operations are paid.
- A company can have a negative levered free cash flow even if operating cash flow is positive.
- A company may choose to use its levered free cash flow to increase dividends to investors, buy back stock or reinvest in the growth of the business.
Using Levered Free Cash Flow in Stock Analysis
Even if a company's levered free cash flow is negative, it does not necessarily indicate that the company is failing. It may be the case that the company has made substantial capital investments that have yet to begin paying off at the level the company expects. As long as the company is able to secure the necessary cash to survive until its cash flow increases due to increased revenues, then a temporary period of negative levered free cash flow is both survivable and acceptable.
What a company chooses to do with its levered free cash flow is also important to investors. A company may choose to devote a substantial amount of its levered free cash flow to dividend payments for shareholders, either because it hopes to attract more investors by offering a higher dividend yield or simply because its management does not believe that, at the time, the cash can better be utilized for investment in company growth. If, on the other hand, the company's management perceives an important opportunity for growth and market expansion, it may choose to devote nearly all of its levered free cash flow to funding potential growth.

Travel Trailers to Mobile Homes
The first decade of the twentieth century saw not only the beginning use of concrete in prefabrication but also the development of the precut house, often referred to as the "mail order house." Although preceded as early as 1861 by small-scale production of various types of camp buildings and cottages, prefabrication took a commercial leap forward with these popular models. Steps such as the grading, cutting and marking of lumber and the assembly of windows and doors were carried out on an efficient production line. Manufacturers' standardized building components and large-scale estimating, purchasing and collection of materials to form a house package established the fixed price characteristic of prefabricated homes.
