1339 has become a very important level. The market is quite likely to become range bound near this value. I will write more about breaking out of this range later, but tonight I wish to answer a couple questions.
"Great lesson. What rules do you follow to initially establish the Fib fan?"
I find the starting point and place the zero line from there to the first peak or valley.
Initially 0.618 is a good line to use for the handle of the fork, but as the pattern ages you may find that the 0.786 line will work better, or after the pattern ages you may also find that placing the fan from the start to the latest peak or valley will work well with the 0.618 line.
I look to see how the fan falls along the pattern for confirmation, and I am not exact about placing the handle. I only use the fan as a gauge for the angle of the fork.
Keep in mind that the fork may change as time goes on. You are interested in immediate targets, not proving that the first fork you draw is the rock solid path of the market. That's why I will change my forks along the way. Early on, a thin fork may work best, but further down the way a wider fork will generally begin to call the targets better. Be willing to adapt, but don't sacrifice too much. If price escapes the boundaries allowed by the fan, then it's probably too far.
At that point you know that the fork has been violated and the trend has changed. Most of the time a beautiful symmetric pattern will develop between the tines, But there are times when symmetry does not exist. It's like a tree that grows an awkward limb or a crooked tooth. Nature is not always perfect, but odds are in favor of some type of symmetry, whether it be perfectly balanced or related by a Fibonacci ratio.
It's not a perfect science. It takes an eye to see the right look. But I believe it's like anything else. Most people agree upon what beauty in nature looks like. You may not be able to go to an art show and discuss the fine points, but you probably know when art has appeal. And as you look or listen to art you begin to recognize it with even more ease.
" One trader's dilemma is balancing adequate time in the market to generate profits against risk exposure associated with increased time in the market. Intra-day holding periods reduce time exposure but often at the cost of returns in the absence of large position sizing or leverage. I would like to poll this accomplished group of indicator experts to determine profitable indicators we have successfully used (made money after transaction costs) for positions held for less than 5 trading days?"
My experience has lead me to believe indicators are about as good as simply watching for two or three bars in the same direction.
As I have recently been showing, it's not very useful to know when the market has turned if you don't know how far the turn can be expected to run.
There are a few exceptions. But they require a sense of intuition or recognition of patterns. Systems such as trend lines, Andrews Pitchforks, channels and previous areas of support and resistance will give you this, but pattern recognition is beyond the ability of Think Or Swim scripts.
I have invented a few indicators that turn before Price, but these are not 100% certain, and require interpretation which is once again beyond the ability of any scripting language.
So ultimately targeting is not generally within the scope of an indicator. Pivot points and a few other... (make that a very few other) indicators such as Parabolic SAR provide real limits. Pivots are so ambiguous that they can only express both a high and low limit with a preferred median, but at least Parabolic SAR conveys support and resistance, and here again, it does a rather poor job of targeting.
My point is that trading is still a learned art that can not be perfected by algorithms in the ToS platform.
To learn the art of trading you must learn to recognize the markets patterns.

Last week the national news was dominated by the release of a disgusting video from the Sigma Alpha Epsilon at the University of Oklahoma.
Two fraternity members, Parker Rice and Levi Pettit, have been expelled for their role in leading the racist sing-a-long. The chant included racial slurs of African-Americans, boasting they would never be members of their fraternity. And even included the words "You can hang 'em from a tree."
The reaction from the University President, Dr. David L. Boren, was swift and emphatic as he denounced the video, condemned the students involved, and shut down the fraternity. Also the national headquarters of Signa Alpha Epislson released a statement saying, "The chant is in no way endorsed by the organization nor part of any education whatsoever."
News programs, "talking heads" and journalists have discussed this incident. It once again brings to our national consciousness the issue of race relations in America. Are they better? Or worse? Is the SAE behavior an isolated situation? Or it is symptomatic of a larger problem?
One response that offers hope comes from Isaac Hill, president of the OU's Black Student Association. Hill invited the members of the offending fraternity, SAE, to meet with his group. Appearing on the Megyn Kelly show, Hill said the students should be forgiven. "It's not smart to fight hate with hate,:
In the most remarkable moment of the interview Kelly asked Hill what he would tell the people who've attacked the SAE fraternity house with graffiti and issued death threats against its members.
Instead of calling for retribution, revenge and revolt, Hill said, "Let's not let their hate spark hate with us."
Kelly was visibly impressed with the young black leader's attitude and response.
Hill continued, "Let's just let their hate spark love with us, and let them learn, and let's teach them how to be good American citizens."
"Isaac Hill, you're an extraordinary young man," Megyn said. "God bless you."
Isaac Hill's words remind us of Dr. Martin Luther King's admonition, "Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that."
And how do we accomplish what King preached and Hill asked others to heed?
We must come to the Light. Jesus Christ. He said, "I am the light of the world. He who follows Me shall not walk in darkness, but have the light of life." (John 8:12) In His famous Mountain Message, our Spiritual Light urged us to act differently than the world.
"You have heard that it was said, 'You shall love your neighbor and hate your enemy.' But I say to you, love your enemies, bless those who curse you, do good to those who hate you, and pray for those who spitefully use you and persecute you, that you may be sons of your Father in heaven; for He makes His sun rise on the evil and on the good, and sends rain on the just and on the unjust. For if you love those who love you, what reward have you?" (Matt 5:43-46)
I don't know Isaac Hill's religious beliefs, but his actions illustrate the living truth of Jesus' commandment. Communication. Kindness. Forgiveness. In a world of harshness and censorious condemnation, these are refreshing qualities.
Instead of bitterness and anger, Isaac Hill offered hope. He told Megyn Kelly that the racist comments could be used as an opportunity to learn and grow. "Those behaviors are taught," he said. "We are all born innocent people."
Indeed sin is a choice. Our actions, attitudes and words are formed through our environment, teaching and personal decisions. But we have the power to change. To subdue the dark desires of the devil. And walk in the Light of Christ.
The Bible says, "Repay no one evil for evil. Have regard for good things in the sight of all men….Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good" (Rom 12:17,21).
Oscar Hammerstein was right when he wrote these lyrics for the musical South Pacific. "You've got to be carefully taught." Thanks Isaac Hill for teaching us to love instead of hate!

8 SEPTEMBER 20 - 26, 2017 WWW.UPANDCOMINGWEEKLY.COM Best Local Community Project Fayetteville Area Habitat for Humanity 310 Green St. (910) 483-0952 or www.fayettevillenchabitat.org "To ease another's heartache is to forget one's own." — Abraham Lincoln Fayetteville Area Habitat for Humanity's mission is to bring peo- ple together to build homes, communities, and hope. Community engage- ment is the spirit of Habitat for Humanity, which started as a grass-roots effort and became an organized movement dedicated to providing simple, decent, energy efficient and affordable homes for families who lack adequate shelter. With engaged volunteers and a dedi- cated staff, FAHFH is creating affordable housing, which improves the com- munity by increasing the tax base. Tammy Laurence is the CEO of FAHFH. Hard-working and dedicated, Laurence has recently been chosen by N.C. State University's Institute for Nonprofits to teach Community Capacity Building this fall in its executive leadership program. "Community development is my passion," said Laurence, who has been with FAHFH for four years. "I am fortunate to have the opportunity to com- bine academics and real life experience in community development, building collaborative networks, and neighborhood revitalization. FAHFH is also doing its part to keep Fayetteville and the surrounding areas "green" and beautiful by accepting donations of furniture, housewares and appliances at the Fayetteville Area Habitat for Humanity ReStore located at 3833 Bragg Blvd. Items that would otherwise take up space in landfills are sold to the public and potentially "upcycled" for better use. Best Local Non-Profit KidsPeace 2944 Breezewood Ave., Suite 203 (910) 223-0949 or fostercare.com/fayetteville A family should be a safe place, a place where children prosper and grown-ups provide stable, loving homes. Unfortunately, that is not always the case. When that happens, children need adults who will take their circumstances into account and advocate for their best interests. They need adults who lis- ten to them, give them proper care and let them know they are loved — even when their little hearts are so broken and they are so out of sorts that they don't feel lovable. That means taking in the most troubled and difficult-to-place children and finding just the right family to foster them. Kidspeace educates potential foster families about the traumas these children sometimes face and teaches them how to best care for the children. It includes hosting and conducting work- shops about relevant but sometimes uncomfortable topics like human traf- ficking, bullying and abuse. It involves fun things, too, like hosting the annual KidsPeace Chair-ity Auction, which helps fund its work: helping families heal and watching children flourish in the right loving environment. And perhaps most importantly, giving children the stability and love every kid should have often means finding creative and effective ways to make a dif- ference in the lives of children, their families and the community. KidsPeace has been doing these good works since 1882; it's no wonder they have been chosen one of the best organizations in Fayetteville.

Poem: (Carrion Comfort)
Poet: Gerard Manley Hopkins
Way back in high school, before I knew anything about poetry (though even then I styled myself a poet, in hindsight a "poet" of the kind you are liable to find on wordpress), I had my first encounter with Gerard Manley Hopkins. Even then, (Carrion Comfort) struck me, though the basic overview of sprung rhythm we received was inadequate to allow me to unlock its rhythm (and, to accept what blame is mine, I lacked any interest then even in learning to scan simpler meters).
Now almost a decade later, I've learned and mature enough to take a crack at it. Though a sonnet, (Carrion Comfort) is in hexameter rather than pentameter (we've seen this before). In this, I follow Hopkins himself, and disagree with Edward A. Stephenson, which disagreement I note since it was Stephenson who isolated the nine principles of sprung rhythm that make clear its workings. I owe him a great debt, but in this instance he is wrong.
In the scansion below, I have marked primary stresses with an acute accent and secondary stresses with a grave accent (though note that the accent on "bruisèd," line 7, indicates pronunciation and not stress). Outrides are underlined; all outrides follow Hopkins' own markings. Afterwards, I discuss some interesting features that emerge.
Nòt, Í'll nòt, cárrion cómfort, Despáir, nòt féast on thée;
Nòt untwíst — sláck they may bé — thése làst stránds of mán
In me ór, mòst wéary, crý I cán no móre. I cán;
Càn sómethìng, hópe, wísh dày cóme, nòt chóose nòt to bé.
But áh, but Ó thou térrible, why wóuldst thou rúde on mé
Thy wríng-wòrld ríght fòot róck? lày a líonlìmb agáinst me? scán
With dárksome devóuring éyes my brúisèd bónes? and fán,
O in túrns of témpest, me héaped there; me frántic to avóid thèe and flée?
….Whý? That my cháff might flý; my gráin lìe, shéer and cléar.
Nay in áll that tóil, that cóil, since (séems) I kíssed the ród,
Hànd ráther, my héart lò! lápped strèngth, stóle jòy, wóuld làugh, chéer.
Chèer whóm though? the héro whose héaven-handling flúng me, fóot tród
Me? or mé that fóught him? O whích one? is it éach òne? That níght, that yéar
Of nów dòne dárknèss I wrétch lày wréstling wìth (my Gód!) my Gód.
- Hopkins in this poem takes full advantage of the freedom that sprung rhythm offers as a logaoedic meter. The base rhythm in sprung rhythm is a mix of trochees and dactyls, with monosyllables and first paeons (one stress followed by three slack syllables) as rarer exceptions. The danger of such a meter is that it becomes simply unprincipled, haphazard. Here that does not happen. The dominant rhythm is trochaic and often claustrophobic (see my second comment below), with dactyls used to create breathing space. To give just one example, in the first line we have three trochees (I'll not; -pair not; feast on) and, ignoring for now the rove-over syllables, a monosyllable (thee). There is also the line-opening anacrusis (Not), which in my view takes a secondary stress. Two of the trochees have secondary stresses (I'll not; -pair not), making the line very heavy. Yet in the middle we have two dactyls (carrion; comfort, de-). After the inward-looking insistence of "Not, I'll not," Hopkins turns outward to his oppressor. The rhythm captures this outward turning beautifully.
- Hopkins also uses dipodic feet to excellent effect in modulating the rhythm, even where the pattern of primary stresses and slack syllables (counting secondarily stressed syllables as slack) is identical. Consider the endings of line 3 (cry I can no more. I can) and line 11 (lapped strength, stole joy, would laugh, cheer). Both have the following stress pattern: / u / u / u /. In line 3, however, every slack syllable truly lacks a stress, whereas in line 11 every slack syllable takes a secondary stress. Both are incredibly heightened moments of the poem (though what isn't, in Hopkins?), yet they achieve very different effects. In line 3, the speaker's cry comes through clearly and cleanly, is uncluttered and musical. By contrast, in line 11, the effect is that of a slow build, two steps forward (the primary stresses), one step back (the secondary stresses), finally culminating in that crucial word, "cheer," which brings us to the central tension of the poem, "Cheer whom though?", about which more in the next comment.
- It is an interesting feature of the poem that the word "not," which appears six times in the first four lines, always takes a secondary stress and not a primary stress. This runs contrary to my first inclination on reading the poem, but in the context of the whole it is actually quite crucial that "not" never takes a primary stress. Notice what syllables are forced to take a primary stress because of this: I'll; (des)pair; feast; (un)twist; choose. All concern either the speaker (I'll) or the speaker's actions (the rest). The stressing thus points to the self-centeredness of the speaker, setting up the later question, central to the entire poem: "Cheer whom though?" And notice also that once he asks this question, once he asks whether it is himself or his oppressor whom he cheers, how the word "me" takes or fails to take a stress. When considering his oppressor (heaven-handling flung me, foot trod / me), it does not. But when he considers himself (or me that fought him), it does. Hopkins' genius shows itself in the littlest things.

The top 10 best-selling vodka brands
4. Żubrówka
2016: 7.10m
2015: 6.15m
% change: 15.45%
Place last year: 5
Is there no stopping this bison grass-flavoured spirits stalwart? Adding close to one million extra cases in the past 12 months alone, Roust's flagship flavoured vodka has defied all category connotations and continued to pack on the volume sales. If the rate of growth continues, Żubrówka looks set to break into the global top three spirits brands in 2018. Flavour fatigue, anyone? But the performance is a stark contrast to Roust's wider fortunes. While sister brand Russian Standard remained in growth, the parent firm has embarked on a major debt restructuring plan and had its US application for bankruptcy approved in January 2017. In a statement, the group described the move as the "consummation" of a strategy to "strengthen" its balance sheet and said it precedes plans to launch an IPO. Whatever plays out over the rest of the year, Żubrówka's momentum looks set to up Roust's appeal to investors.

April 2, 2013
KANSAS CITY, Mo. – Florida State University women's basketball head coach Sue Semrau will be honored by the Fellowship of Christian Athletes with the Kay Yow Heart of a Coach Award this Sunday, April 7, at the FCA Breakfast at the Women's Basketball Coaches Association convention in New Orleans.
Named for the late North Carolina State coaching icon Kay Yow, the award is presented annually by FCA to honor a basketball coach who has exemplified biblical principles over the course of his or her career. The late Kay Yow, who passed away from breast cancer in 2009, was presented with the inaugural award at the 2008 Women's Final Four in Tampa.
"I first met Sue when she was Jane Albright's assistant at Wisconsin and it has been so fun to watch her grow as leader, coach and, most importantly, as a follower of Jesus," said Donna Noonan, FCA's national director of events and women's ministry. "Kay was all about seeing her players become the women God created them to be, and I see that same trait in Sue. We are thrilled that Sue is this year's winner of the Kay Yow Heart of a Coach Award."
Semrau, who is featured on the cover of the current issue of FCA Magazine and is a member of FCA's Hall of Champions, just completed her 16th year as the head coach at Florida State, leading her team to the second round of the NCAA Tournament. A three-time ACC Coach of the Year and the FSU women's basketball program's winningest coach, Semrau has led the Seminoles to the post-season 10 times in the past 11 years. She has also served as an assistant coach on gold medal winning USA Basketball national teams at the U18 and U19 levels.
This season, Florida State had a league-best and a school-record three All-ACC First Team selections (Alexa Deluzio, Natasha Howard and Leonor Rodriguez) and tallied its eighth 20-win season with Semrau at the helm.
As successful as she has been on the court, Semrau's commitment to Christ and the people she meets on a daily basis is a larger part of her identity. The past four years, Semrau has partnered the Seminoles with Samaritan's Feet, a non-profit organization dedicated to changing lives through shoe distributions around the world. Semrau annually will coach a game barefoot in an effort to raise money, and the Seminoles took a break from the 2010 Junkanoo Jam in the Bahamas to give back on Thanksgiving.
Additionally, the Seminoles have performed a variety of services throughout the Tallahassee area and have been known to extend a helping hand when on the road, making visits to the Boys and Girls Club at the Coalition for the Homeless in Orlando and elementary schools in Harlem, West Chester and Wadsworth, Ohio and Martinsville, Ind., as well as the Duke Hospital in Durham, N.C.
Semrau, who will become president of the WBCA this year, came to FSU after spending three years as an assistant coach and recruiting coordinator at Wisconsin. Prior to her stint with the Badgers, she served as an assistant at Northern Illinois and as the head coach at Occidental.

Oscars reveal 4 categories to be presented during commercial breaks
According to The Hollywood Reporter, the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences has revealed the four categories that will be presented during the forthcoming Oscars' commercial breaks. This plan was approved by the Academy's board of governors last August 2018 in order to keep the show's total running time to only three hours.
The four categories that will be affected are cinematography, film editing, live-action short, and makeup and hairstyling. However, the winners' speeches will still be aired during the live broadcast.
Academy president John Bailey added. "With the help of our partners at ABC, we also will stream these four award presentations online for our global fans to enjoy, live, along with our audience. Fans will be able to watch on Oscar.com and on the Academy's social channels. The live stream is a first for our show, and will help further awareness and promotion of these award categories."
Earlier this year, it was confirmed that the forthcoming 91st Academy Awards will be airing without a host for the first time in 30 years. This was due to the controversial resignation of comedian-actor Kevin Hart from being this year's host.
RELATED: The 2019 Oscar Nominations Revealed!
The Academy Awards have gone without a host only one time before, and before then, there were instances of big-named talent such as Bob Hope, Jack Lemmon, Rosalind Russell, and, of course, Donald Duck, sharing the duties. The last time more than three people hosted the event was in 1987 when Chevy Chase, Goldie Hawn, and Paul Hogan worked the stage together.
The 91st Oscars will be held on Sunday, February 24, at the Dolby Theatre at Hollywood & Highland Center in Hollywood, and will be televised live by the ABC Television Network. The Oscars also will be televised live in more than 225 countries and territories worldwide.

A New Year! A fresh start, and time for some new challenges! This year I plan to create sewing patterns that are slightly more technically challenging. Why? Well I'm not really one for stagnating, I like to push myself to learn more and do more, growing my skills and knowledge, and growing more every year in my abilities.
I may have been sewing my whole life, and 2017 marks 14 years since I complete my studies and have been making a career out of it, but I never believe that I know it all, I always believe that I can learn more and become a better seamstress, dressmaker and business woman.
This week's sewing tutorial is for a slit pocket, and it's one of those things that I worked on creating a better version of (and will probably continue to do so), so that its process of construction is as simple as possible, but with the neatest, best quality version of it. So give our tutorial a try and let us know what you think of it.
Make It Sew!
We are so proud that out book Make it Sew, by Nathalie Marran made it onto the Amazon best reads blog! To celebrate, everyone who purchases a full year's Annual Sewing Patterns Subscription during the month of January, will receive a FREE copy of our most popular eBook – what a brilliant way to improve your skills and grow your own Sew From Home Business

Tutorial of the week
The Slit Pocket
The slit pocket, once you can master it, then you will love it. A recent query from a client inspired me to create this week's blog tutorial based on this pocket, and you can also use this tutorial to add this kind of pocket to a finished garment.
This is quite a challenging pocket for most, and one that does take a lot of practice. Although in my patterns I share the general way of creating these pockets, I myself have recently been working on trying to create a simpler way of constructing them, which moving forward will be included in new pattern instructions.
What you will need:
- Iron on interfacing - specifically for these pockets, I like to use the one that almost feels like cardboard it's so hard
- Fabric for your piping
- Fabric for your pocket sections
I have included a few pattern piece for you to download
Step 1:
On a hard piece of iron-on interfacing measure out and draw your pocket section. Cut it out with at least a 1cm / 3/8" border around it, and iron onto the wrong side of the fabric, in the space where you intend to attach your pocket.
Step 2:
Cut along the lines in the pocket are, and press them open towards the wrong side of the fabric.
Step 3:
Press your two piping sections in half, and pin them to the long sections of your pocket, with the fold facing inwards towards the pocket opening. Baste into position.
Step 4:
Baste your triangular corners to your piping section, this should help your corners as well as your piping sections stay in place, while you complete your pocket. Press flat again before continuing (this will help with the neatness of your pocket.
Step 5:
Attach your pockets sections to the long opening sections, stitching along the folded lines.
Step 6:
Attach the picket sections together, by sewing down the sides and bottom, making sure you include the sides of the piping sections, but don't stitch to the main fabric section. Press flat – your pocket is now ready!
Attach the picket sections together, by sewing down the sides and bottom, making sure you include the sides of the piping sections, but don't stitch to the main fabric section. Press flat – your pocket is now ready!
Tip: Tailors usually use an invisible hand stitch to sew the piping sections closed- this helps to keep the pocket in shape until the client purchases the garment.

Paragraphs 3 thru 5 - Setting-up of the Commission of Enquiry and related matters
3. Consequent upon representations made by counsel to the Commissioners objecting to the terms of reference, the Commissioners communicated with Her Excellency the Governor and the Governor, acting in accordance with the advice of the Cabinet, on the 20th day of December, amended the terms of reference as follows:
".....to make diligent inquiries into the matters set out hereunder:
1 A. 'Whether or not any incidents occurred during the period January 1, 1973 to November 30, 1973 from which a finding can be made by the Commission as to whether or not there has been any breakdown of law and order in the State and whether or not there has been any infringement of constitutional rights, with particular reference to the operation of the Police Force and 'Police Aides,' and the Magistracy, during the aforesaid period.'
1 B, 2, 3, and 4 - The same as 1, 2, 3 and 4 in the preceding Instrument, dated 6th December, 1973.
Item (5) as to the making of specific recommendations was deleted and in place thereof the following was added;-
"And to report and make recommendations thereon."
4. It will be appreciated therefore that the enlarged terms of reference increased considerably the range of the Enquiry, not only as to the period of time but as to the matters to be enquired into, with particular reference to the operations of the "Police Aides" who had not been included in the original terms of reference. As the evidence subsequently disclosed there was every justification for the request for the enlargement of the terms of reference, as otherwise if the terms of reference had stood as originally drawn many instances of illegal acts perpetrated by the "Police Aides" would not and could not have been enquired into by the Commissioners.
5. The Commissioners commenced taking evidence on the 17th of December, 1973, and adjourned on the 21st of December for the Christmas holidays. Public sitting were resumed on the 3rd of January, 1974, and continued until the 9th of January when the further hearings were adjourned for a date to be fixed. Up to this stage some 31 witnesses had been examined and the Commissioners desired to resume the hearings after a break of one week but this was not convenient to the Government on account of Grenada's pending independence on the 7th of February. Events of a tragic nature in the affairs of the Island intervened and prevented the resumption of the sittings of the Commission until the 22nd day of April on which date the Commissioners were able to resume. The Commissioners wish to state quite clearly that they were willing and anxious to resume the hearing immediately after the 7th of February but were unable to do so as the Government was not able to make the necessary arrangements. As soon as the Secretary of the Commission was able to make arrangements the Commissioners, at considerable persona inconvenience to themselves, returned to Grenada and sat from day to day until all the evidence had been taken. The last witness, the Honourable Eric Matthew Gairy, Prime Minister concluded his evidence close on to midnight of the 16th of May, 1974.

Overview of the Collection
The Library's collection includes over 1,069,744 printed monographs and 872,396 e-books, and licensed access to 78,408 electronic journals. In addition, the Library has substantial collections of government documents and other resources, maps, data, rare books and other special research collections, printed journals, archives, theses, multimedia resources (audio, DVD, streaming video), musical scores, computer games, as well as licensed access to a broad range of full-text and indexing databases. For a snapshot of details, see the Collection Trends at a Glance below.
Subject specialists and liaison librarians, working with faculty members and coordinated by the Head of Collections and Assessment, build and maintain the Library's collection by developing subject-specific collection policies which guide the systematic selection of materials. The Library also provides a request form on its website where a user may suggest a book or other item for purchase. Although the majority of monographs are collected in print format, the library is increasing its e-book collections. Students and faculty already have access to many e-books in a wide range of subjects and disciplines.
In order to enhance its purchasing power (particularly for electronic resources), the Library is an active member of two major cooperative partnerships: the Ontario Council of University Libraries (OCUL), a consortium of the 21 academic libraries in the province; and the Canadian Research Knowledge Network (CRKN), a consortium of 75 academic libraries across the country.
The Library's annual acquisitions budget for the 2018/2019 fiscal year is $7 million, and its staffing and operating budget is $11.8 million.
The Library acquisitions budget is not protected from inflation, exchange rates, or cuts, which often challenges the Library's ability to provide all the necessary resources in support of teaching, learning, and research at Carleton. Consideration of the funds necessary for the Library's acquisitions budget is part of the academic planning and Quality Assurance processes for new programs. In relation to other Canadian academic libraries, Carleton's acquisitions budget is small, and comparisons on specific metrics also generally place Carleton at the back. Carleton's budget has increased by about 36% since 1999/2000 – slightly less than the increase in the national average of academic library budgets over the same period. But the the main problem is that Carleton's dollar amount is historically small in comparison to the national average, and since 1999/2000 it has not been catching up: it remains at about 52% (Carleton = about $6.4 million and the national average = about $11.6 million as of 2016/2017, the latest year for which comparative figures are available). The Library is dedicated to regular assessment of its resources and services. Staff use an assortment of qualitative and quantitative techniques to evaluate collections and services in order to make sound decisions within budget parameters.

The Iron are 13/5 outsiders to overturn Walsall at the Bescot Stadium on Tuesday evening with Sky Bet, the official sponsors of the Football League.The home side are favourites for victory at 11/10 whilst a draw is priced at 23/10.
Nick Daws' side head into the fixture buoyed by Kyle Wootton's late equaliser against Oldham Athletic on Saturday and the young striker is 3/1 to find the net at any time against 4th placed Walsall.
The Saddlers, despite sitting in the play-off places in League One, haven't won a game since 2 February which is a run of four games.
Their last home game saw Wigan Athletic take away a 2-1 victory and the Iron are priced at 11/1 to come away with the same result.
Last season saw United produce a brilliant performance at the Bescot Stadium to take away a 4-1 victory. Goals from Tom Hooper, Neal Bishop and Paddy Madden, as well as an own goal, were more than enough to earn the three points.
Irishman Madden has already scored 15 goals in League One so far this season and is priced at 11/2 to score the first goal of the game on Tuesday evening and is 2/1 to score at any time.
Sky Bet are also offering some match specials for this fixture. They have given odds of 9/1 for United to find the net inside the first ten minutes and have given an even bigger 11/1 for them to score twice in the first half of the match.
For more great oods, visit www.skybet.com/scunthorpe ahead of the game. Every bet placed benefits the Iron financially.

Erroneous reports of a deadly phone call that supposedly uses high frequency tones to cause brain hemorrhaging have hit the Maldives in a tidal wave of warning text messages, TV news reports and panicked gossip.
Several local television news channels in the Maldivians have already reported the urban legend as fact, creating widespread panic by claiming that 27 people had already died worldwide including two Maldivians, supposedly in Fuvamula. This was not confirmed by police.
The story is a recurrent hoax that is thought to have originated in Afghanistan in 2007, according to Reuters, which reported the outbreak of mass hysteria in April that year. However the rumours quickly spread to Pakistan, where they were blamed on 'God's wrath', before resurfacing in India in 2006 as 'devil calls'. These variants also featured a death count of 27.
One account by the Institute of War and Peace Reporting traces the myth's origins to a political spat between the Afghan Interior Ministry and Ministry of Communications.
The Maldivian version involves the circulation of a text message similar to:
"Dont attend to any calls from 7888308033, 9316048121, 9876266211, 9888854137, 9876715587 these numbers come in red color. U may get brain hamrage due to high frequency. 27 person died just receiving the call. Watch dd news to confirm. Please inform all your friends and relatives soon – its urgent."
Dhiraagu Marketing and Public Relations Manager Mohamed Mirushan said all the stories and texts about deadly mobile phone viruses were baseless.
"People are calling and asking about the virus," he said. "It is technologically impossible for a phone call to cause a brain haemorrhage."
He said that people should not always believe what a text message said.

Fall, Southern Cookin'!
I love Louisiana food. I've been cooking gumbo and creole cuisine with my dad since I was about five years old. I found this recipe for stewed okra and tomatoes, and decided to create my own version.
The first time I made it, it was unreal. My husband swears it is the best thing I make. First and foremost, use fresh okra. My first attempt was actually inspired thanks to the Shreveport Farmer's Market okra. I've used store bought okra from Brookshire's, and it's just not the same. Also, I'm not the best with measurements. If it calls for a cup of chopped Vidalia onion, I usually use the whole onion. There's no such thing as too much onion, or garlic for that matter. So here it goes:
8 cups okra – sliced length wise
4 slices bacon- but I use a whole pack because I'm going to eat a few slices!
1 Vidalia onion chopped
2 tablespoons sliced garlic cloves- but seriously, who uses a reasonable amount of garlic? You know what to do!
2 cans petite diced tomatoes
1 package of smoked sausage, sliced (I always buy Down Home, but it's your choice)
2 1/2 cups chicken broth
1 teaspoon sugar
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
1/2 teaspoon of cayenne pepper (I didn't have this, so I used Tony's)
Let's Make It Happen!
Cook the bacon in the oven or on the stove top as instructed on the package. Set the grease aside. Crumble the bacon and set aside.
Saute the onions and garlic for about 5 minutes until the onions are soft.
Add okra, tomatoes (do not drain), sausage, chicken broth, bacon grease, sugar, salt, black pepper and cayenne pepper (Tony's).
Bring it all to a boil; reduce heat to medium-low, cover and simmer for 20 minutes.
Add crumbled bacon.
Most Southerners serve this over rice. I added a little twist, and made elbow pasta.
It is delicious…Hope you enjoy!

We promote digitalisation and competitiveness in Finland
As a telecommunications operator, DNA plays an important role in society as the provider of important communication connections and the agency maintaining critical infrastructure. Our objective is to provide top-grade and fast connections to society and solutions that enable digitalisation and the development of Finland's competitiveness.
We are committed to continuous business development, while considering the needs of our environment and the stakeholders. As a responsible operator, we provide high-quality service to our customers, are a good employer and a reliable and innovative partner.
We take the needs resulting from digitalisation and a changing age structure into account in society. Therefore, we continue our dialogue with our customers, suppliers, employees and other stakeholders, and will develop our operations to meet their needs and the changes of society.
Services for a changing society
According to its strategy, DNA will meet the growing demand for faster high-quality connections. We invest in a very competitive and cost-effective network and service platform infrastructure so as to meet the growing communications needs of consumers and society in general.
|Modern communications and entertainment services
|In a digital society, there is a constant need for receiving and sharing data. DNA offers high-quality voice, data and TV services for communication, entertainment and work.
|Fast and comprehensive networks
|This growth is driven, among other things, by the growing supply and use of video, image and instant messaging services that benefit from the high speeds provided in modern networks. For its own part, DNA provides comprehensive high-speed connections by making significant investments in the construction, development and maintenance of its network infrastructure.
|Pioneer in mobile work
|As a pioneer in the promotion of digital and mobile work, DNA considers the changing service needs of working life, and develops smart solutions for data communication between devices.
|Online safety of young users
|For several years, DNA has also been guiding young users on safe use of the Internet and mobile phones.
|Senior citizen's service needs
|Providing tailored services and smart solutions for senior customers as well as nationwide network coverage helps prevent the digital exclusion of senior citizens. DNA's dedicated telephone service takes account of senior customers' special needs.
Significant investments to secure key communication connections
The high-quality, fast connection speeds are dependent on significant investments. Compared to many other fields, technology is very quickly replaced or updated. From society's perspective, such investments secure the future provision of competitive communications services.
Individual users and businesses alike depend on reliable and fast Internet connections and online services. Many people use more than one internet-enabled device, and video especially is accessed anytime and anywhere. This adds to the broadband network load and means that telecom operators must keep updating and improving the network.
DNA actively involved in constructing a digital society
DNA considers stakeholder communication and feedback to be extremely important – we operate actively in order to develop the Finnish society. We take direct action and join our industry organisations in projects that promote digitalisation. We also communicate transparently with authorities and decision-makers about our views on regulatory issues that affect the development of our industry and business environment.
DNA engages in the work of associations and trade organisations, as well as the developments in safeguarding our industry's interests. DNA is a member of various associations, including the Finnish Federation for Communications and Teleinformatics (FiCom), the Service Sector Employers (PALTA), the European Competitive Telecommunications Association (ECTA) and Groupe Speciale Mobile Association (GSMA). DNA is also a member of the Finnish Corporate Responsibility Network FIBS and Diversity Charter Finland.
Inexpensive calls, high-quality networks and great coverage
In Finland, the prices of mobile calls are among the most inexpensive in the world, and we have high-quality networks with great coverage – regardless of the fact that Finland is one of the most sparsely populated areas in Europe. Read more about the prices of mobile calls from the comprehensive ITU report.
Since the early 2000s, when DNA entered the Finnish mobile communications market, it has played a major role in the development of mobile call prices. The set-up involving three competitors is one of the key factors that have led to a significant decrease in telecommunication prices since the early 2000s, while other customer prices have increased.

Maltese marina expansion project halted amid residents' protests
The Authority for Transport in Malta has released a planning application indicating plans to expand the marina in Kalkara from 21,000 m2 to as much as 35,000 m2. However, shortly after the plan was made public; local residents have forced the authorities to assure them that the marina will not be expanded.
Maltese Transport and Infrastructure Minister Ian Borg, from the country's ruling Labour Party, denied the facility would be expanded after meeting Mayor of Kalkara Wayne Aquilina and other Maltese MPs.
"I assured them that the Kalkara marina will not be growing by even one centimetre." Borg said following the meeting with local politicians. "Although we looked into the possibility of expanding, as happens with every project, I can assure everyone that this will not be happening."
The marina is located in Malta's Grand Harbour, offering some 120 berths to seafarers. The facility was launched based on a licence awarded in 2010.
The Authority for Transport in Malta is the regulatory body that oversees all modes of transport in Malta.

The Best Farmers Markets in The Summerlin Area
Wouldn't you rather explore outdoor booths of fresh produce and locally-made products in Downtown Summerlin than roll your cart around a grocery store? The farmers market is a community hub—a place to enjoy with your friends, bring your children, or just to get a taste of small-town life in the midst of Las Vegas. Supporting your local farmer's markets not only helps support local farming but also allows you to purchase fresher produce because everything is organic and locally grown.

Christmas is one of the most magical times of the year, which is why many happy couples choose to host their big day during the festive period. What's more, it leaves you with a great theme to start preparing your wedding around.
From kitsch Christmas weddings with multi-coloured bauble lights, to minimalist all-white affairs, no two Christmas themed weddings need to be alike. That's also thanks to the diverse range of décor and venue options available nowadays.
Work with Your Venue's Décor
One of the best things about planning a Christmas themed wedding is that a lot of the decorating will have already been taken care of by the venue.
However, if you're planning on adding additional decorative features, it's best to contact the venue and work with their decorating plans. Once you know the venue's colour scheme and exactly where their Christmas tree will be placed, you can start making the room your own, safe in the knowledge their won't be a clash of ideas!
Send Invitations Early
The festive period is hectic for everyone and this is one of the most important things to bear in mind if you're going to plan a successful Christmas wedding. Getting your save-the-date cards and invitations out early is of the utmost importance.
A tongue-in-cheek approach to early invites is to send your guests Christmas greetings cards – even if they'll arrive in the post in July. This keeps it light-hearted and shows that you understand how busy schedules can become in December.
Entertain the Kids
Christmas is the most exciting time of the year for most children, which means that you need to pay them special attention if you're going to invite to your Christmas wedding.
What's more, keeping them entertained will mean that the adults will be able to enjoy the big day to the fullest too.
If you're planning a Christmas wedding before the 25th, one great idea is to hire a Santa Claus impersonator. The kids are sure to love this, and a North Pole backdrop can even give your wedding photos a more unique touch.
Alternatively, you could set up a tablet or video console station, where the children can play mobile games during the reception – but don't be surprised if you have to pull your groom away from this area too!
Keep Warm
Another thing that you need to consider when planning a Christmas wedding is how you're going to keep everyone warm. You don't want your wedding photos to be spoilt by bulky winter coats nor do you want your guests to feel the chill!
In spacious venues this may mean renting a few extra heaters, or offering everyone a stylish blanket later on in the evening. Hot beverages such as mulled wine will also go down a treat, as will hot, comforting food.
Remember the Unique Touches
One of the biggest worries for Christmas brides is that their wedding may be over-taken by festive clichés and as such, the big day will fail to reflect their personality and their relationship.
However, there's still plenty of ways you can put your own unique touch on a festive wedding. Whether that means eschewing the turkey dinner for something else, or insisting that Mariah Carey is definitely not on the DJ's playlist, don't become preoccupied with what other people may be expecting.
What's more, you may even be able to add personal twists centred around your own Christmas traditions. Do you and your partner have any unconventional Christmas customs? Maybe you eat take-out on Christmas Eve or spend Boxing Day watching old cartoons? Work these into the reception and the day will feel more genuine and special.

Amazon Holds Up As Nasdaq Dips; United Airlines Soars On Earnings
Tech stocks were under mild selling pressure near midday Wednesday, but shares of Amazon.com (AMZN) held up after the Nasdaq 100 giant called its recent Prime Day the most successful ever.
Leaderboard name Amazon lost 0.7% early but recovered off lows after Tuesday's positive reversal that resulted in a new closing high. Amazon has been a pillar of strength after gapping out of a cup-with-handle base in late April on strong earnings. Earnings from Amazon are due July 26 after the close.
Among FANG stocks, Amazon and Google parent Alphabet (GOOGL) held up the best. Alphabet was unfazed by news of a $ 5 billion fine from the European Union related to the dominance of Google's Android mobile operating system.
The Nasdaq composite was mostly flat, while the Dow Jones industrial average and S&P 500 rose a bit. Volume on the NYSE and Nasdaq was tracking slightly higher than Tuesday's pace.
The Dow was led by UnitedHealth Group (UNH). Shares rose more than 2% after the stock paid a visit to its 50-day moving average Tuesday. The health insurer is back in buy range from a conventional entry of 250.89.
Wednesday's session yielded three bullish gaps up in price, all on strong earnings.
In stock market results today, railroad CSX (CSX) jumped more than 5% to 67.96 as it tries to clear a flat base with a 67.79 buy point. CSX reported its third straight quarter of accelerating earnings growth and second quarter in a row of accelerating sales.
Shares of chip-equipment firm ASML (ASML) gapped up powerfully. Shares were up 6% as it tried to clear a recent high of 216.90. An earnings beat and news of a 33% increase in sales to $ 3.2 billion fueled positive sentiment. Sales growth at the Netherlands-based company has ranged from 33% to 53% over the past four quarters.
In the airline group, United Airlines (UAL) gapped up past a 75.63 entry, rising 8.5% to 78.82. Earnings and sales beat estimates and the company also raised its full-year earnings guidance.
Inside the IBD 50, China-based TAL Education (TAL) gapped above its 50-day moving average, rising 5%. Earnings are due July 26 before the open.

By Jenn LoConte
For the past fourteen years, DLP Investor Lee Mulder has been changing the lives of hundreds of orphaned children living in Uganda, East Africa. In fact, he has 842 grandchildren, only two of which are from his own children.
In 2003, Lee, a marketing consultant in the high tech industry, first became aware of the plight of these suffering children from a man attending his church in Chicago. Ben, who was in the U.S. from his native Uganda, was working on his third Master's degree and planning to start an organization to help save children in his home village. He gathered a group of church friends to visit the country so they could see, first-hand, the desperate needs of the people. The AIDS epidemic was rampant with more than 30% of the population infected at its peak. Lee was compelled to be a part of the group and his life forever changed after that initial visit. Lee says, "In a place that is breathtaking in its natural beauty, the suffering we witnessed was unbelievable. More than one million parents died, leaving their children behind, now homeless, starving, and wearing rags. There was no welfare system and child-headed families led by 12-year olds were common. They would do whatever it took to survive." After spending three weeks there, the group returned, presented their findings to church members, and the financial help that was desperately needed began to pour in.
Within six weeks, Ben was able to secure a furnished home with a trained staff of and fourteen rescued children. Now calling themselves "The Pioneers," these children not only received food, clothing, and medical care, they also received what would help propel them forward, a solid education. Just three months after the initial donations, Lee returned to Uganda and was astounded at the transformation in such a short time. He comments, "Those same kids who had been sickly with a blank glaze from hunger were now happily singing, dancing, going to school and so full of life." And, the Ugandan people did the work. Soon after, Juna Amagara (Saving Life) Ministries was formed and since then, the lives of over 1,000 children have been transformed. The ministry operates in five locations within Uganda, with 850 children who are sponsored by caring individuals. Years later, The Pioneers are now college graduates (and spectacular adults), living successful lives and generously giving back to their communities.
Since his first trip, Lee has been back to Uganda many times, once taking his 16-year old daughter, Emily, to help open a school. (Lee has also volunteered on mission trips to Egypt, Peru, Honduras, Mexico, and several Caribbean islands). Lee's partner Clara Leonard, who was a healthcare administrator in the Chicago area, now manages the extensive donor/sponsor database for Juna Amagara Ministries. She has visited Uganda twice since meeting Lee. She comments, "It is a deeply emotional experience when, after years of corresponding through letters and photos with a young girl I sponsored, I was able to look into her beautiful eyes and give her a heartfelt hug. These kids really do look to their sponsors as parents."
Lee wrote a book about his time in Uganda, called They Call Me Mzee: One Man's Safari into Brightest Africa. (available at Amazon.com) Over the years, he's learned the local language and the kids call him Shwenkulu (grandfather). He loves the hospitality and culture and is astounded by the beauty of the country. From snow-capped mountains on the equator to beautiful savannahs with elephants, and Lake Bunyonyi, one of the deepest volcanic lakes in the world, Uganda has become a second home to Lee and Clara. Lee says, "The subsistence farmers, mostly women, are extremely strong, eating food from their own gardens; many live into their eighties and nineties. Their life philosophy is: if you don't dig, you don't eat. The people may have few possessions but they are abundant in faith, hospitality, and community. "
Lee says working in Uganda has given him a different worldview. He comments, "Knowing that $35 per month can literally save a child's life and then seeing people spend thousands of dollars on an expensive watch or a new car…or hearing kids argue about who has more sprinkles on their Dairy Queen ice cream is sometimes not easy to absorb." Even vacation destinations have changed for the couple, who now prefer to enjoy adventures with natives of the land they visit vs. staying in a big hotel resort. On a trip to Jamaica, they ended up in the back jungles of a little town with the townspeople sharing their life stories.
So, how did this worldly man become an Investor with DLP Capital Partners? Lee had worked with professional money managers for 25 years, living through the ups and downs of the market with its related anxiety. He had always sought some kind of safe, reliable investment opportunity that could match or beat the long-term return from securities investments. After hearing a radio ad for DLP in Jacksonville, FL, he picked up the phone, spoke to Don, and set up a time to meet at the local Panera. Lee jokes, "I was looking for a starched man in a suit and tie, instead I met a casual young genius wearing a faded black polo." Lee did his own due diligence – attended several investment dinners, spoke with fellow investors; and, after eight months, became one, himself. He continues, "Two things make me believe in DLP. First, is Don Wenner. I'm convinced that early on, Don found his perfect sandbox and just loves the business. Second, is the company's focus and persistence. 'Never lose money' works for me. DLP is made up of excellent people who know exactly what they need to do to fulfill their leader's vision and are passionate about it every single day. I feel like I've discovered an investment secret and look forward to watching DLP grow."
Likewise, Larry Hickernell, Jr., DLP Senior Investment Success Manager states, "One of the reasons Lee has become so close to us at DLP is the shared values and how much we admire all of the things he and Clara have done for others over the years. We have so many wonderful Investors like this, it is amazing to have the opportunity to interact with them and get to know these selfless and truly genuine people."
Lee and Clara, both officially retired, continue to live a life full of learning, adventure, and transforming lives throughout the world. Lee has recently been asked to lead the missions committee at Amelia Plantation Chapel where 30% of the church's budget goes to support Christian missions. He says, "We have seen some amazing things happen when people reach out to each other in the world. We really do have more similarities than differences."

Shakeup your integration strategy to enable digital transformation, says VP & Gartner Fellow Massimo Pezzini. Pezzini asserts that it is not just about transforming and modernizing the infrastructure and the applications concerned. Some of the fundamental concepts of integration need to be revisited and transformed as well. Such systemic transformation punctuate the migration of legacy environments to microservices and the cloud. What may have worked in the past will no longer be applicable going forward. "Integration is dead. Long live integration," screamed the title of one of the sessions at the Red Hat Summit 2016. The session was making a point. Integration, as we knew it a few years back, is dead. Integration in the digital world has a long life in the decades ahead. Join me as I walk through the new styles of integration that are the hallmark of digital transformation.

I am settling in well to my new life in Wales and have been pleasantly surprised at the great art scene here and how welcoming and friendly everyone is. I go life drawing, have discovered part of the area and what goes on with the local Urban sketchers who invited me to join them when they picked up my move on Painters on line, ( the Llangollen International was fabulous), and have been to the painters' play days organised by a local group and a fun way to be productive and meet new people.
