In late September 2014, thousands of people started to occupy major streets in Hong Kong which lasted for more than two months. The protesters followed the call of the Occupy Central with Love and Peace movement, which had threatened civil disobedience if real democracy was denied. This had happened on August 31st when the Chinese National People's Congress Standing Committee released its restrictive decision on the implementation of universal suffrage for the chief executive. 1 Eventually, students initiated the street blockades after a week-long strike. When the peaceful protesters were met with tear gas, tens of thousands of Hongkongers were propelled to go to the streets to protest the excessive violence against the students and other activists. As the protesters had defended themselves with umbrellas, it became known as the Umbrella Movement. While the outburst of passionate protest activity was influenced by economic concerns similar to previous protests, it was primarily an anti-materialist movement which stressed self-sacrifice for real universal suffrage. Hong Kong has the highest income inequality among the developed economies of the world and worryingly this discrepancy is still increasing. While the Gini coefficient, which measures inequality, was already at an alarming 0.52 in 1996, that number had increased to 0.54 in 2011. This can be partially blamed on a business-dominated undemocratic political system which accords disproportionate power to the tycoons while neglecting the massive number of poor. Labor unions are extremely weak and unable to achieve much for their employees, who fear that striking could make them jobless in a highly competitive environment. Many people live in extremely crammed environments including cage homes that are so tiny it is impossible to sit upright. Recent measures to combat the problem such as the introduction of a minimum wage and the setting of an official poverty line have done little to stem the problem. This is due to the fact that these measures are highly insufficient as for instance the minimum wage of HK$30 (as of December 2014) is not enough to afford food and housing. The primary underlying factors driving the movement have therefore not been directly related to inequality but rather to the declining social mobility and worsening quality of life, 3 which affect those in the middle the most. In 2003, the inability of the government to deal with these problems were combined with the fear that even the civil rights, which are core values of Hongkongers, could be lost. It was triggered by the government's proposal to pass security legislation under Article 23 of the Basic Law, which threatened to undermine freedom of speech and assembly. As a consequence, an estimated 500,000 people joined in a massive rally through the central areas of Hong Kong island. The government eventually shelved the law and one year and another massive protest later, Tung Chee-hwa, the chief executive, also resigned. The recent Umbrella Movement has some things in common with previous pro-democracy protests. The main drivers behind the call for real democracy came from both students and academics, who were frustrated by the very slow progress of political reforms and deeply worried about the future of the city. The vast majority of participants were from middle income groups and not from those most affected by the deep social problems. In fact, a city-wide worker's strike, which was proposed by pan-democratic labor organizations, never materialized. The reality is that most workers rely on their meager salaries for survival and are not willing to risk their own jobs. The income inequality thus mattered more as a concern among academics. Much more close to the hearts of the activists was the fact that opportunities for upward mobility have become rare and housing costs make it very difficult to have a better life than previous generations. The movement also differed in one important aspect from most previous protests. Instead of emphasizing economic concerns, the Umbrella Movement epitomized the rejection of materialism and the money-making culture. It aspired to more idealistic goals such as the development of a truly democratic community in which people trust each other. A number of noteworthy events highlight this character of the movement. While the annual pro-democratic protest on 1st of July is used by many political parties and non-governmental organizations to collect donations, this was not the case in the two-month occupation. No one sold anything and people gave away stickers or postcards for free.

were sold at production costs. In addition, you could get free water, snacks, or hot soup from supply stations. Many Hongkongers who did not dare to participate, donated large amounts of resources for the supply stations that supported it. Another important difference was the fact that the Umbrella Movement was a site that stressed arts and handicrafts, which are generally held in low regard by the money-oriented society. Because the government has primarily focused on what it considers the four key pillars of the economy (financial services, trading and logistics, tourism, as well as producer and professional services), manufacturing and cultural industries have been neglected. In the main protest site, called Umbrella Square, volunteers erected a self-made study corner as well as a network of passageways for easier access. Yellow ribbons made out of leather were produced as well as T-shirts were printed with Umbrella themed logos for which people stood in long lines. Finally, impressive installation art and drawings of all kinds were displayed. These artworks dealt with underlying issues, such as the social problems, as well as the need to keep faith in a better, democratic future. A key characteristic of the movement was moreover its educational nature. A group of professors and lecturers offered free lectures which began already during the student boycott in late September. During the occupation, the "democracy classroom" moved to the streets. The more than 110 different talks primarily focused on topics related to the movement including democratic politics, liberties, civil disobedience, as well as comparative perspectives. This aspect of the movement demonstrated the attempt to create a more sophisticated citizenry that is more aware of its rights and why those are important for the future development of the city. While a great deal of the activity was concentrated on the three main protest sites, there was also an attempt to expand the movement into the larger society. The most prominent attempt was the use of a gigantic yellow banner, which was placed on Hong Kong's landmark Lion Rock, an iconic mountain that can be seen from most of Kowloon. This was, however, not only an attempt to increase visibility but also an attempt to redefine the core meaning of the Hong Kong identity. In the 1970s, the mountain was seen as synonymous with the can-do spirit of Hongkongers, who can overcome any difficulties to climb the social ladder. The group announced in their Youtube video that "We think the spirit of Lion Rock isn't just about money…the people fighting for universal suffrage all over Hong Kong have shown great perseverance in their fight against injustice and perseverance in the face of difficulties. This is the true Lion Rock spirit." 4 With other words, Hongkongers are aiming for more than merely economic success to develop a democratic society that respects everyone. The most obvious example of the anti-materialist bent of the protest movement was the most recent form of protest, the so-called "Shopping Revolution" which has driven hundreds of people to participate in unorganized but peaceful resistance protests almost every night. The movement emerged after the clearance of the Mongkok protest site. Inside the rugged shopping district, the protesters meet at the same movie theatre every night around 8pm and then proceed their "shopping" tour along Sai Yeung Choi Street, which is a very busy shopping street. It includes the frequent chanting of slogans, the use of yellow banners that call for democracy, and slow walking and tossing of coins and picking them up again. This form of protest emerged when CY Leung announced that, after the clearance of the protest site, people should go back to shopping, which had triggered the memory of a Chinese mainlander who had been interviewed by the media during an anti-democracy protest and had said that she was in Hong Kong for shopping. The protesters then upended this and went protesting that appears like shopping. As a result, hundreds of policemen are deployed every night in the area. In conclusion, Hong Kong's regime change is driven mainly by people in the middle income groups, who are worried about the future of the city. Economic concerns such as the high housing costs and the living expenses clearly play an important role but they are less important than more idealistic values such as personal liberties and democratic rights. The Umbrella Movement has been markedly anti-materialist and grassroots democratic as many participants were striving for something more valuable than financial wealth.

John Braun (R-20) received a "thumbs up" from the state House on April 17, following its passage in the Senate on Feb. 27. 2/27/19 On the Rise: Local factories part of tall wood building movement. Spokesman-Review Feb. 26, 2019. Katerra Inc. is on track to open an engineered wood products factory in April in Spokane Valley. Vaagen Timber also has a facility to produce cross-laminated timber in Colville. Oregon has one producer. Most of the rest are in Canada. 2/11/2019 Promises still unmet for small forest land owners. TJ Martinell, The Lens. Two decades after the state legislature passed the Forests and Fish Law to protect fish habitat, it is still unclear to what extent the regulations have negatively impacted small forestland owners. At the same time, forestry groups and state officials have highlighted the insufficient technical and financial assistance given to those landowners that was promised as part of the original bill. Legislators are seeking to address those problems via SB 5330. 10/24/2018 Initiative 1631 - Implementing a Carbon Fee, by Heather Hansen, WFFA Government Relations Consultant.

Landowner News 16(3) Fall 2018. 9/15/18 Some of Washington's biggest trees are dying and scientists don't know why. The Chronicle, Centralia/Chehalis, Was., Saturday, Sept. 15, 2018, p. 13. Reports of dying and dead big leaf maple trees have been made for over 10 years. Several agencies and UW graduate student Jake Betzen are studying the problem. The Five Springs Tree Farm, owned by the Kingsbury Family, has been named the 2018 Western Region Outstanding Tree Farmer of the Year. They were the 2017 Washington State Tree Farmer of the Year. For more information about their property and their management of it, follow this link to the American Tree Farm System's announcement. They are nominees for the National Outstanding Tree Farmer of the Year for 2018. Ken Miller, past WFFA State President, gave a presentation on the Small Forest Landowner Riparian Template Proposal at the Washington Hardwoods Commission Annual Meeting on June 14, 2018. His entire 25 minute presentation is available for viewing. On January 31, 2018, the Washington Department of Natural Resources, brought together its partners -- from local fire districts and volunteer fire teams to the U.S. Forest Service, Bureau of Land Management and National Guard -- at the first Wildland Fire Summit, to work on developing a Wildland Fire Protection Strategic Plan to envision a new future for effective wildland fire management. A fact sheet for the development of the WA Wildland Fire Protection Strategic Plan has now been released. A new online magazine has been started as a way to help the general public understand forests and the work of foresters. It can be accessed at treesource.org. The intended audience is the general public and the stories are intended to be more in-depth than the usual daily news story. 1/4/17 New Wood Technology May Offer Hope for Struggling Timer - Cross-laminated timber tested at two mills, Gillian Flaccus and Phuong Le, Associated Press: D.R.

With the holidays fast approaching and new years resolutions coming shortly after that it's easy to stress out and sweat the small things. The only problem with that is your body's response. Your body reacts to stress in ways that actually make you stress out more. It gains weight, it gets tired, it holds water and before you know it your body has sent you into a bout of anxiety or depression. Learning why this happens is the first step in taking action against chronic stress and its affect on your body. In this blog post we go over the basics of cortisol the "stress hormone" and what it does in the body so that you can take the necessary steps to stop stress from happening. Cortisol is a steroid hormone produced by the adrenal glands during times of stress. This is why it's commonly referred to as the "stress hormone." Most bodily cells have cortisol receptors so when the adrenals secrete the hormone it's sent throughout the body and attaches to those cells. The attachment to those cells is critical for normal daily functions of the body. Cortisol has been shown to keep blood sugar levels in check, regulate the body's metabolism and reduce inflammation. It also plays a role in the body's balance of water and salt; think bloated and holding water or high blood pressure because of too much salt. That all being said… the right amount of cortisol stimulation is critical for your health. Cortisol naturally rises and falls throughout the day and night and is stimulated during exercise to help breakdown muscle tissue so that you can rebuild it bigger and stronger with proper recovery. (Remember this little tid bit for later.) However, it is also stimulated with stress or situations we view as stressful. Constantly stimulated levels of cortisol can over time burn out your adrenal glands so they cannot secrete enough for your bodily needs but in the process you will have the side effects of overstimulation. These side effects range from weight gain (especially around the abdomen,) decreased bone density, problems sleeping, loss of muscle mass, high blood pressure, depression, anxiety, weakened immune system and in most cases little to no results with efforts to lose weight through exercise and diet. Unfortunately for us stressful situations seem to be everywhere we turn. Whether its family, finances, career, relationships, self-esteem or body image problems our little adrenal glands pump out cortisol with every situation. Now lets take into account our fitness industry that promotes radical diets, quick fixes, extreme exercise programs and the mentality that fitness is life and your cortisol levels are going to spike just thinking about it. Extreme diets are considered a stress on the body. Extreme workout programs are considered a stress on the body. Combine the two and you have a recipe for disaster. Now lets dig a little deeper… back in the beginning of the blog where I wrote that exercise stimulates cortisol, it does for a reason. The reason we exercise is to breakdown muscle tissue so that when we leave the gym we go home and focus on recovery so we can stop the spike of cortisol and rebuild our muscle tissue. Rebuilding muscle tissue leads to a faster metabolism and fat loss over time. Unfortunately since our exercise programs usually come with an extreme diet nowadays you're actually not getting the adequate nutrients to start this recovery process and therefore your cortisol levels are not coming back down. Now we can take it a step further and say you're going back into the gym later on for an extra session and re-stimulating your body to pump out even more cortisol even though you never brought your levels back down from before. Can you see how this could be a vicious cycle that would just burn your body out rather than help you lose weight and get healthy? This is the problem that most of us are dealing with and without the proper education of how our bodies work most have had no idea. Handling stress so your body has the chance to recover and rebuild each day is critical to your weight loss success as well as success in your relationships, business and overall wellbeing. So what can you do? The right amount of exercise can be an amazing stress reliever. Getting in a workout that is a combination of cardiovascular training and resistance training is the trick. Be efficient with your workouts and find a workout that combines both components.

Join the hand-wound revolution! A new manual mechanical watch with exhibition caseback from Marloe Watch Company. 620 backers pledged £192,318 to help bring this project to life. Marloe Watch Company is an independent designer and producer of wrist watches based in Oxfordshire, England. They launched their first watch, the Cherwell, on Kickstarter in January 2016 to a fantastic reception. The company's values are strongly bound to tradition and design. And it's these values, along with a passion for timepieces, that inspired the creation of beautiful watches powered by manual, mechanical movements. As watches get smarter, and lives more complicated, there is a movement embracing the slow-living counter culture, going back to the simple things, celebrating tradition. So as the technology brands fight it out over who makes the smartest watch, Marloe is proudly going against the grain to create the most traditional of all watches - the hand-wound timepiece. The Lomond Chronoscope, from Marloe Watch Co. Following on from our successful debut Kickstarter for the Cherwell, Marloe Watch Company is delighted to announce their follow-up campaign for the Lomond Chronoscope. Named after one of Scotland's most famous Lochs, as well as countless cultural references, the Lomond expands the growing range of timepieces from MWC, which now includes the original Kickstarter campaign's Cherwell and the new smaller diameter Derwent. The Lomond Chronoscope is a manual mechanical wristwatch that includes a "stop-watch" feature, a ceramic bezel insert and exhibition case-back. It is 43mm in diameter x 11mm high (13.6mm to crystal zenith), 46.6mm tip-to-toe and has a 22mm strap-width. We wanted to create a timepiece with a foot in both the traditional and the contemporary; with a strikingly unique yet reassuringly familiar design. For the Lomond Chronoscope we kept some elements of our earlier designs whilst developing a timepiece that stands apart, not just within our own range but also within the market it exists. This is a more complex mechanical timepiece, offering both accurate timekeeping and time measurement, therefore the design needs to reflect the need for additional information, whilst remaining true to our core belief of essentials only, clutter free design. The Lomond Chronoscope comes in 4 colour-ways, split into Classic and Vintage aesthetics. For the Classics there's a White and Grey dial, both with a Telemeter scale matt ceramic bezel. For the Vintage models, there's a Coffee and Vanilla dial with a simple 60 second scale polished ceramic bezel. The Classic White dial features the same pearlescent white paint from the Cherwell but applied to a sandblasted surface to give a beautiful paper like texture with a semi-metallic sheen. The main printed markings are dark grey with red accents and the hour blocks are polished to match the hands - a classic combination. The Classic White has mirror polished main and sub-dial hands with a painted dark grey Chronoscope hand to match the outer markings. The case, crown & pushers are mirror polished with a matt black ceramic bezel, Telemeter scale engraved and paint-filled white. The Classic White is fitted with a bold orange leather strap. The Classic Grey is bold and refined. The dial is a charcoal grey, applied to a sandblasted surface to give a beautiful paper-like matt / semi-pearlescent finish. The main printed markings are in white with red accents, and the hour blocks are polished to match the hands. The case, crown & pushers are bead-blasted, and the bezel matt black ceramic with white filled engraving for a wonderfully tactile utility feel. The polished hands contrast the dark grey dial to assist in quick time-reading. The Classic Grey is adorned with a matching dark grey leather strap. Striking. Different. The Vintage Coffee has a luscious deep brown, almost black dial colour. In one light it appears a glossy inky black, helped with the reflection from the crystal. In another light and angle it's a flat espress	1.822099	-0.093402	-0.266683	-0.364457	[ 1.7727905065848815, 1.8714071374727923 ]	[ 0.39902135978318054, -0.5858243599371646 ]	[ -0.000893186906642478,

o brown. The main printed markings are a combination of vintage cream with red and white accents; polished hour blocks match the polished hands. The sub-dials feature a turned brass aesthetic complementing the markings, with a vintage cream Chronoscope hand completing the look. The case is polished to a mirror shine, with matching crown and pushers. The Vintage cases feature a polished black ceramic bezel with a 60 second gradation scale engraved and paint-filled white. The Vintage Coffee is fitted with a black leather strap, contrasting white stitching and brass rivets to compliment the sub-dials. If the Classic White dial is just too classic, and you want something subtly different, the Vintage Vanilla is the one for you. A beautiful vanilla pearlescent dial shimmers in the changing light, from deep warm grey in lower light to a bright radiating off-white in lighter environments. A combination of vintage cream and dark grey accents keep the dial subtle yet still easily readable. Dark grey painted hour blocks stand proud from the lower surface. Polished main and sub-dial hands match up with a dark grey Chronoscope hand to tie everything together. The case is again polished with matching crown and pushers, with the deep glossy inky black ceramic bezel with engraved white markings. The Vintage Vanilla is strapped with dark brown leather, contrast white stitching and brass rivets to complete the vintage range. The Special Edition dial features the same pearlescent white paint from the Classic White dial and applied to a sandblasted surface to give the same beautiful paper like texture with a semi-metallic sheen. The sub-dials are the inverse of the dial, or Panda as it's called. The outer ring minute markings are red, with dark grey 1/5th seconds markings. The hour blocks are polished to match the hands, as are the main and sub-dial hands, whereas the Chronoscope hand is painted red to match the outer markings. The case, crown & pushers are mirror polished with a matt black ceramic bezel, Telemeter scale engraved and paint-filled white. The Special Edition is fitted with a matching Grey leather strap. Please note - the Special Edition imagery is for illustration purposes only. The dial is yet to go into production so we do not have any further images at this time. For more shots of all designs, please visit our shared album. The movement within the Lomond is a special one; it has history. Originally developed by Fabrique d'Ebauches Venus S.A in the 1940's, the Venus 175 was used in many high-end timepieces, most notably by Breitling. Soon this 175 Caliber was copied by a Russian firm and came to be known as the Strela. When Venus decided that they wanted to develop a new movement, the 180, they went looking for buyers for their Venus 175 caliber. The Soviets didn't want it - they had their cloned Strela movement, but the Chinese just so happened to be looking for a movement to install in a new pilot's watch for their air force. Venus sold everything to the Chinese - machinery included. After the war the caliber soon filtered down to consumer watches and has ultimately become the Seagull ST19. In part, due to the history and background, the ST19 still shares the robustness and accuracy of the Venus 175, which is why we've chosen it for the Lomond Chronoscope. The case has been designed with a few goals - firstly to cradle the complicated mechanical movement efficiently, presenting its visual complexity and remaining as slim as possible. The second was to design a case that sits beautifully on the wrist, tucks neatly under a shirt or cuff and is easy to operate when wrist-borne. Third the case was to feel robust and solid but not overly cumbersome. The result is a case tapering from a diameter of 38mm at the case-back, to 43mm at the edges of the static bezel. At 11mm deep, the case sits unobtrusively on the wrist. With the lugs bending downwards, coupled with the restrained 46.	1.619387	0.052087	-0.880018	-0.166102	[ 1.6632164722649807, 1.57555724480906 ]	[ -0.4380975019791129, 0.542271646287958 ]	[

6mm top-to-toe measurement, the Lomond sits comfortably on the wrist. The signature crown and Chronoscope pushers are supported with small flats which mould out from the case seamlessly, with the bezel nestled within a thin steel frame. Few things go together better than polished stainless steel and black ceramic. Whilst steel is inherently surgical and clean, ceramic has a depth and warmth that other treated or coated materials can't replicate - it's also incredibly strong in compression and remarkably scratch resistant. We have chosen to use both matt and polished black ceramic for our Lomond range, and they do a great job of proportioning out the dial and case to keep the Lomond from feeling too big. The hidden gem, the resplendent secret. There's something palpable about a reaction to the Lomond Chronoscope's exhibition case-back, when turned over to reveal the open window to the heart within. The oscillating balance wheel and hairspring gently bouncing back and forth; the three central wheels all moving in sync; the warm shimmer of gold, blue and ruby all encapsulated under the sapphire crystal case-back. It all adds up to a visual spectacle unlike most others. Perimeter printing on the underside of the crystal reveals a few details whilst adding its own interest; an inverse print of transparent text within a black border. A true showpiece, hidden when in use but gloriously revealed at your choosing. A quote from poet and lyricist, Robert Burns, from his 1790 narrative poem, Tam o' Shanter, continues the Scottish inspiration for the Lomond. "Nae man can tether time or tide" Our watches need input from you to keep them alive - that's the joy of manual winding movements; turning the crown keeps the engine ticking. For the Lomond Chronoscope the crown retains the outline form and scalloped & engraved end-cap from the Cherwell, but halves the number of grooves in the surface to compliment the more contemporary design, whilst keeping the grip required to turn it. The crown features a double o-ring construction allowing a tight seal to be formed against any rogue splashes. Acrylic Crystal. Robust, durable and repairable; it's something of a touchy subject in the watch world. For some the relative susceptibility to scratches is a negative. We think not - it may take a scuff easier than say mineral or sapphire crystal, but unlike the latter two options, acrylic crystals can be polished to remove these scratches easily. It doesn't matter if it's 1 day old or 1 year old; a dab of Polywatch or swipe of a Cape-Cod cloth and the crystal can be refreshed to brand new. Acrylic also has a warm, vintage aesthetic that just can't be replicated with other forms of crystal. It's also light, can be moulded in to pretty much any shape and is easily replaceable. Sapphire crystal was explored but the cost to produce this custom profile would have significantly impacted the affordability, and a redesign to allow for standard double-domed sapphire crystal would have made the Lomond significantly thicker - a compromise too far. The Lomond crystal achieves a few things. Firstly, it limits the height of the watch by having a top-hat style profile - tall at the edges, flat in the middle. We've put a large radius on the outer edge that directly coincides with the Chronoscope track below, resulting in a wonderful magnifying effect. This elongates the minute markers from the outer Chronoscope track, whilst disguising the smaller 1/5th second markers. This not only makes reading the time at a glance exceptionally easy, but it adds an extra element of dynamic when you rotate the timepiece around and watch the light refraction play off the surface. The dial continues the standout feature of our Cherwell design, with a double layered dial and sharply recessed sub-dials. The metal hour blocks are positioned to extend out from the upper level, adding a sharp metallic line in amongst the beautiful pearlescent paint. Markings are kept to essentials and the functions separated with the 2 layers. The bottom, outer layer features the Chronoscope seconds track, with each second segmented 5 times to capture	2.260395	0.091929	-0.211401	0.005588	[ 2.5178939399602074, 2.002895978656673 ]	[

the 1/5th second accuracy. The upper layer has minimal markings, with only small pips of Superluminova to point you towards the hours. A double pip at 12 helps with orientation in the twilight. The sub-dials are framed with the corresponding markings for the function - the running seconds sub-dial has 60 markings, with 4 bolder markings at the main quadrants. The 30 minute timer has 30 markings, with bolder markings at each 5 minute interval. Within the sub-dials are numerals for ease of reference. Legibility is essential, which is why the Lomond has simple polished hands, infilled with Superluminova. A long, thin, counter-weighted Chronoscope second-hand is poised ready for action, the tip coated with Superluminova. The sub-dials use the same polished hands from the Cherwell, a nod to its predecessor. When day turns to night you want to still be able to read the time, so the Lomond Chronoscope features Superluminova C3 on the hands and dial. Small pips arrayed around the upper level at the hourly markers make time-telling quick and easy - a double pip at 12 o'clock orients the watch easily. The Chronoscope hand features a lume tip. Both hour and minute hands are infilled with Superluminova C3. We wanted a bold set of straps to match the bold design of the Lomond, and as such we have 4 straps - 2 for the Classics, 2 for the Vintage. The Classic models get a padded orange and a grey strap using genuine calf leather with embossed croc texture. The Vintage models have brass rivets through genuine brown and black calf leather, with a lovely bold grain and contrasting stitching. Generously thick at 4mm. All straps feature a engraved buckle, displaying the MWC crown icon, and soft lining leather with embossed logos. Our Lomond straps also have quick release spring-bars to allow for quick and easy strap changes. You can read more about the Lomond Chronoscope in an exclusive review by Worn&Wound. If Junghans ever produced a sports chronograph under the Max Bill line, I can't help but imagine this isn't too far off from what that might be. All in all, they nailed it. Inspired by our original Cherwell box, we've designed a single tier box especially for the Lomond. Made from 3mm cardboard and wrapped in sumptuous Fedrigoni paper, the box contains a single tray with its own precision-milled dense foam cavity to hold your Lomond securely in place. The box is imprinted with a clear foil logo and finished with a pristine band with our embossed crown icon. Inside you'll find a traditional letter-pressed insert telling you a little more about the Lomond. The full retail price for the Lomond will be £449/$559. We will not be selling the Lomond in retail until all Kickstarter rewards have been shipped. Upon the conclusion of the Kickstarter campaign we will be sending out a survey where you will indicate which colour option(s) you would like and confirm your shipping address as well as other relevant details. We will ship the Lomond Chronoscope worldwide, with the exception of: Argentina, Belarus, Cuba, Iran, Iraq, Lebanon, Libya, Myanmar/Burma, North Korea, Russia, Somalia, Sudan, Syria and Yemen. Please note that you may be responsible for duties, fees and taxes applicable in your region. We expect to start fulfilling orders in October 2017. While we do not expect this deadline to move, it is possible that the estimated shipment month may shift. If at any time you would like an update, please either check the "Updates" section of our Kickstarter Campaign, or feel free to email us at [email protected]. We stand firmly behind our products.

Overview: This ought to be fun. It's a collection of stories, long and short, in the three sides of urban fantasy. The editors and writers have included essays on the different sides of urban fantasy. Useful for those, like me, that have barely scratched the surface. Let's get on with the stories, shall we? Overview: It's a musical journey for John. The journey starts when he meets Willie for Open Stage night at the Orpheus. Willie dresses in an old-fashioned way, has plenty of advise about music to offer, and seems otherworldly at times. Likes: Good switch Ms. Bull. I could have sworn that Willie was a vampire. But the clues to his identity were well placed. Biggest hint: music, singing…hint, hint. Conclusion: I liked this one. It was fun. Overview: Wow. Maida and Zia, part of the Cousins as they call themselves, have gotten themselves caught up in human affairs. Well Maida has anyway. Promises are sacred to the Cousins, and she has made a doozy. Oh, did I mention that it's to a ghost? Likes: This story explains a lot of how family relationships work. Maddy's death was open to your interpretation. But it was Donnie and their mother that I felt for the most. Every family has feelings like this, and it's nice to see it being portrayed as just the way it is. Conclusion: As close as this is to a true depiction of mother and child, this will be a 'love it or hate it' story. I enjoyed it , even though it was sad. Overview: Um, what was this? I have no idea where we were going here. All I know is it's all 30 minutes away. Conclusion: I didn't like this one. It was confusing. This is the second time something from Mr. Gaiman just confused me, so I'll count my losses with his works. Overview: This starts out like a bad joke. A guy picks up Jesus and the Devil. It wasn't a funny one either. Conclusion: This is another one that I didn't care for. Jesus wasn't portrayed in the best light. And I'm not talking about the smoking and drinking either. Overview: What do you get when an artist with a magical background finds a tapestry that shows something that she doesn't like? Hang on for Julie here. Likes: This was kind of cool. A teacup unicorn, the joy of all little girls. Or was that just me? The ending was sweet. Conclusion: I liked this one. Julie's grandmother must have been one scary woman to disobey. This ends the "Mythic Fiction" sub-genre. We go to "Paranormal Romance" next. Overview: Mary is worried. Edric has seemed to close himself away from her. And she fears he might be cheating on her. Conclusion: This is a cautionary tale. I'm not sure what to make of this one. All I do know is that the relationship could never work under the guidelines both parties put it under. Overview: Tanya and Nathan have bought a supposedly haunted house. Haunted bed and breakfasts are considered to be all the rage these days. Not that Tanya has bought any of those stories. So why are there so many freaky occurrences with Nathan at the center? Likes: I like haunted house stories. This one is no different. Tanya's fear is quite understandable. The ending now, that was the real kicker. Conclusion: Isn't karma something? I liked this one. Overview: Oh my. Young love, or more like teen love. A teenager with his witch and the last night of summer. Likes: It was a pretty neat story. A guy bringing out the beauty he sees in a woman. It just got a little weird when you find out Johnny's secret. Conclusion: What comes around, goes around. Why can't anyone get this? I liked this one. Overview: Kitty just wants a New Year's kiss. Is that too much to ask? When a woman in a stupor shows up at the party, it's up to Kitty to figure out what's wrong with her. The joys of having a supernatural call-in program.

ikes: Kitty's research on zombies was kind of fun to follow. And the way that they were able to help Beth was sweet. Conclusion: I liked the character of Kitty, not so sure about reading her story any further though. I did like this story. Overview: Tom is searching for Jon, his brother both in blood and in blue. To aid his search, he is sent to Moira to help him. Since the group that has Jon is called the Samhaim Coven, he needs a witch's help. Good thing Moira isn't scared. Likes: Tom is my kind of guy. He doesn't care what he has to do to get the job done. Let him watch my back. Conclusion: I liked this one. Maybe I ought to find more on Patricia Briggs. Overview: Would you take out a repentant vampire for the chance of ultimate forgiveness? That's what Anthony has been offered. Did I mention that the hit takes place in the Vatican? Conclusion: I didn't like this one. God doesn't play these games. Overview: We have another werewolf story. One about young teens. Conclusion: This one is just sick. I'm pretty freaked out by the main character. I hated it. Overview: A woman's son was eaten by zombies. So she's out to help others threatened by them. The only question is, was Max really eaten by zombies? Conclusion: Have I mentioned how little I like unreliable narrators? I think it's the feeling of being lied to. This is just one reason I didn't care for the story. The other reason is how Ms. Block referred to those with the slightest conservative slant. This ends our trip through "Paranormal Romance." All in all, it wasn't a bad trip. We're starting the "Fantasy Noir" next. Overview: Another bipartisan story with an unreliable narrator. Tawana is worried about vampires attacking the Somali refugees in Minneapolis. Conclusion: Why is it that there is no backlash when the liberals start preaching in their stories? C.S. Lewis is still taking flack for "The Chronicles of Narnia." Preaching, of any kind, isn't much fun to read. I didn't like this one. Overview. This is different. Here we have Gestella, a werewolf who falls in love with a man named Jonathan. Conclusion: This story was awful. Between the second person point-of-view and the ending, well it made for terrible reading, and made no sense. Especially since the ending made the story void. There are more stories in the "Fantasy Noir" section, but this is where I stop. Over all Conclusion: After 'Gestella,' I bummed out on the anthology. Out of twenty stories seven were good, eight I couldn't stand, and five I couldn't read. I did look up the last five stories, and found that "Fantasy Noir" really isn't my style. Maybe, you will like it better. Overview: Nicholas Drummond, a man with dual citizenship–his mother was an American actress, his father is British nobility I think–, is coming into his probationary period with the FBI. Too bad it starts out with such a bang. A rare book dealer is murdered in the middle of Wall Street. Then the man's children disappear. Story Telling: This was a well written story. Many things were hidden in plain sight and made for a fun read. Likes: A lot of my likes came from Zachary. He was supposed to be the boss, and he managed to keep a real smart mouth. Nigel's relationship with Nicholas reminded me more of friends instead of employer/employee. Mike has the perfect job for here. It seemed like she was getting pretty high there at some points. Dislikes: The only real problem that I had with the book was Josef, Leo, and William's side story. For the most part, it could have been combined into a prologue as much of the information lead into the main story, yet didn't give too much away. Favorite Scene: My favorite part was how Nicholas and Mike were able to rescue Adam. I'd have loved to see the looks on the operators' faces when that signal went out. Conclusion: This really was a fun	0.047684	-0.581348	-0.408277	-0.94001	[ -0.18995438317034208, 0.2853229906922278 ]	[ -0.7183308749540839, -0.44436470201369693 ]	[ -0.5024348496763817,

trip. Hopefully the next one won't book as international. Not that this one was too bad, it was basically America and England. I wonder what's next in Nicholas's and Mike's lives. I received this book courtesy of Mrs. Harris for the purpose of a fair and honest review. Overview: Keith Brown has been offered a deal of the century. Valerie Scovall, a judge now but a lawyer several years ago, has hired him to find out what happened to two men who ran a Surrogate program, Lake Shore Parenting Group, quite a few years a ago. Was it murder or an accident. Story Telling: For the most part, this story was told in a first person point-of-view in Keith's perspective. There is one scene that is a bit jarring though. It's when Keith and Valerie meet. The scene is in first person, up until Keith walks in Valerie's office, then it switches to third person so to describe Keith. Likes: Keith's doggedness is to be admired. Dislikes: This is a drama filled story. One that suffers from somebody trying to be too politically correct. For fun see if you can identify the gay, black, white, and liberal characters. Really the worst part is that for a mystery, there wasn't many mysterious thing happening. Where was the intrigue, the clues being dropped, the investigation of the murders? Conclusion: It's not going to be to everyone's tastes. Hope you like listening to drama queens when you pick this one up. I received this book courtesy of Mrs. Bean for a fair and honest review. Overview: Oh no! The Sun went down and never came back. What are Kaylee, Mattie, Lily, and Fran to do? Try to get it back of course. Story Telling: The story was written to attract young readers. Mrs. Bean is rhyming in a similar vein as Dr. Seuss. Likes: The pace of the story combined with the charming illustrations make this an immersive book for most children. Dislikes: The book gives an inaccurate portrait of why children don't go out to play anymore. It's not because of the games or the internet. Most parents won't send their children outside in such dangerous places. Are you going to let a child go out to play with the risks that (s)he'll be snatched or caught in a drive by? No sane person would. I agree that children need more exercise and playtime, but it's a new day dawning and more care needs to be taken. Favorite Scene: My favorite part was when the girls came up with a plan to talk to the Moon and bring back the Sun. Conclusion: This is a cute idea. I'd read it and explain why going outside is to be a planned excursion with a parent or guardian around. I received this book courtesy of Mr. Cornelison for the purpose of a fair and honest review. Overview: Mr. Cornelison, one half of the Cornelison team on Season 13 of 'The Biggest Loser,' wishes to show us how Go used a reality show to change his life. So basically, it's a memoir. Story Telling: Remember what I said about the overuse of italics in the last book? This one was loaded with them. Needless to say, it was a slow read. Likes: There were nice summarizing points at the end of each chapter. Dislikes: I didn't care for all of the italics. There must be a better way for emphasis. Nor did I care for the Christian vie of weight gain. Please tell me where in the Bible God says "Thou shalt not be fat." Or, even better, which Biblical group had a problem with Jesus being a glutton? Favorite Scene: I like how Mr. Cornelison spent the time with his son. Conclusion: You'll probably like this one if you liked 'The Biggest Loser.' Personally, I never have watched the show, nor do I wish to start, but to each his own. I received this book courtesy of Mr. Flynn for the purpose of a fair and honest review. Overview: Mr. Flynn wants to let us in on a little secret. What's the secret you ask? It's that with the help of your family and the right frame of mind, you can live with anything and keep a positive attitude.

Even a ramshackle property can be a wise investment if it is located well. Think about the location and its potential. Be sure that you get advice from experts. Before bidding on a property, talk to someone experienced in real estate. Speak to appraisers or agents, for instance. The more knowledge you have, the better choices you can make. If you are moving toward making real estate investing a career or a way to bring in extra money, jump in and start learning right away. Procrastination is a big mistake in the real estate market. Waiting around does nothing to build your knowledge and experience base. When calculating profits, always factor in the costs of repairs that the inspection dictated as necessary. You will have to make most general repairs before selling a property. If you want to rent the property to someone, you have to think about how much maintenance will be. Just make sure to give yourself a cushion when calculating potential profits. First, inspect the neighborhood. Does it look like everybody is leaving? Talk to your potential new neighbors and ask what the area is like. Next, look at the land. If you notice that the yard is on a downwards slope towards the property, the foundations could be affected by rain water. Noticing bad smells, both in and out of the property is problematic too. Bugs and insects are a bad sign as well. If there have been bugs or insects, people in the street are likely to know about it, so ask them. Next, it is time to look at how the property was treated by the current owners. Find out whether it was maintained properly. If you notice that there is a lack of structural maintenance on the outside, the inside will probably be the same. Check the wiring as well. Real issues can only be identified by a qualified professional, but you can get a good idea yourself.

lights flicker or outlets are warm, there is a chance that the wiring is faulty. Similarly, if you notice that there is a single wall, or just a few walls that have been painted very recently, where others haven't, the owners may be hiding something. Next, look closely at the windows. Look at whether the windows have mold or condensation or are hard to open; this could be a sign of expensive problems.If an owner declares certain rooms as "off limit", then go find a different home to buy. Additionally, if you notice that any structural work has been done, such as the removal of walls or floors, you need to find out whether that work was done properly by a qualified architect. Basically, you should not purchase a property that has not gone through a professional inspection. With the information above, you should be able to tell whether or not you might want to hire a professional inspector, or whether it is a clear no on the purchase. If the property does have problems, you can decide to walk away from it, or you can demand a substantial discount in order to pay for the repairs. Also, always trust the advice of home inspectors. Home inspectors will tell you honestly whether or not a certain property is worth investing in. The reason why you are selling a property will have a huge effect on the price you end up getting for it. As such, even if you are simply looking for a quick sale, do also try to be motivated by profit, as this will help you get a higher price. To get your home sold at the best possible price, there are a few things you should do. First of all, you have to decide why you want to sell. You need to know your motivation, as it will also help you to determine what your available resources (effort, money and time) are. For instance, wanting a quick sale and wanting a huge profit are two incredibly different things. You have to get to know your home's pros and cons. Make sure that all the good things are highlighted and try to conceal the bad things as much as possible. Do make sure that you get someone to help you find out about all the good and bad points. It is very hard to see the bad in something that you have called home for so long. Unfortunately, you are also driven by your own emotions. As such, ask someone else what they believe the pros and cons of your property to be. You could either hire a professional, or you could simply ask people you know for their opinion. A professional costs money, but the opinion of friends could sting, so do consider which option is the best. Hopefully, the above information will have given you the knowledge you need to make a quick sale at a good price. Clearly, there is no need for you to invest a great deal of money, nor do you have to be an expert in anything. They are all simple, common sense actions that make a huge impact. Happy selling and good luck. Your realtor's experience is one of the most important things to look into. Usually, realtors with more experience are also better at their job. If you can, try to find a realtor who has worked all the way through the economic crisis and still works now. Next, make sure that the experience they have is relevant to your own needs. Someone who wants to flip properties, for instance, will have very different needs to someone who wants to find a home to raise a family in. You also need to know that your realtor understands your demographic and geographical requirements. For example, if you want to become a rancher, you need to find a realtor that is able to understand the different types of land, how it has been produced and what the homestead is like. Similarly, if you were hoping to purchase a listed or historic property, you will need someone that understands the laws and regulations surrounding those properties. Don't work with the realtor of the owners of the property you are planning to purchase. By law, the realtor will have to pass on any information you give to the seller as well. Similarly, if you want to sell, you also need a different realtor. You should work with someone that represents just you. The first thing you should try is ask people you know whether they can recommend anybody to you. Another place to look for a good realtor is the NAR (National Association of Realtors. Finding a NAR realtor means that you are guaranteed to be represented ethically and professionally. You should always try to contact different realtors before choosing one. You should discuss your needs with them, finding out what kind of suggestions they offer. These conversations can help you determine just how much a realtor knows about a specific neighborhood,	0.075763	-0.652973	0.795486	-0.584273	[ 0.03056336089845834, 0.12096193921237652 ]	[

house prices and so on. If you want to sell your home, find out how the realtor has done in the past. What you must find out is whether they tend to sell below, on or above the asking price. In most cases, if you want to sell your property, your agent will require you to sign an exclusivity agreement. This is a common procedure but it does not mean you lose any rights. For example, if you realtor does not represent you properly, you can always terminate the contract. All it means is that you are only able to work with a single agent at the same time. As a buyer, you do not have to sing such an agreement. However, some realtors are starting to insist on it. Last but not least, you need to understand the way realtors earn their living. Realtors can earn their money in a variety of different ways. In most cases, you will find that a realtor is paid a commission on the final sale price of the property, but some work on flat fees. Before you agree to work with a realtor, therefore, you must understand which one of the two constructions they work with. It is always a good idea to enlist the services of a realtor, whether you are buying or selling. Although most of us know at least one person who works as a realtor, don't be tempted to automatically go to them as they may not be the best to represent your needs. Let's review two issues of importance when it comes to choosing a realtor. Firstly, you should find out how experienced your realtor is. Usually, realtors with more experience are also better at their job. The best realtors got into the business before the recent economic crisis and are still working today. However, you also have to make sure that they have experience pertinent to your own needs. Someone who wants to flip properties, for instance, will have very different needs to someone who wants to find a home to raise a family in. The second thing you need to know if how much of an expert they are in terms of the geography and demographics you require. For example, those who want to purchase a ranch will need a realtor that understands soil conditions and production methods and who can also look into the homestead that comes with the ranch. If, on the other hand, you want to purchase a listed building or a historic property, you will need someone that has a very different type of experience. Once you have looked into experience, you must review the realtor's reputation as well. It is easy enough to find a realtor that has a really bad name, unfortunately. There are a number of tools at your disposal to find a good realtor, fortunately. Be sure to check the Better Business Bureau in terms of finding out how good the realtor is. Do make sure you also use social media to your advantage. It is very difficult to censor anything that appears on social media, meaning you can easily get your hands on honest reviews. Do also ask the opinion of people you know. Do make sure, however, that you look into any complaints you here and how these apply to you, and whether the realtor has been able to resolve them satisfactorily. Usually, seller's realtors will ask you sign an exclusive agreement with them. This is completely normal, but it doesn't mean you don't have rights. If, for example, you feel you are being poorly represented, you are allowed to terminate the contract. All the contract really prohibits is for you to work with more than one agent at the same time. Buyers, on the other hand, usually do not have to sign these contracts. However, there is a changing facing in the world and many now ask their buying clients to sign a contract as well. Realtors have to earn a living and you need to understand just how they do that. Realtors can earn their money in a variety of different ways. Although there are a few realtors who charge a flat fee, the majority of them will work on commission. Before you agree to work with a specific realtor, you have to find out which type of payment construction they opt for. Real estate investing can be both a complete failure or a complete success. Everybody believes that location, location, location is what matters the most, but it is actually more important to know who you are dealing with. Unfortunately, there are some really unscrupulous people in the world of real estate. Think of the people you see on late night television, who promise to make you a millionaire. Also, make sure that your investment isn't too risky. Although there is always a risk in real estate, some options are higher risk than others.

Of course it is, and again, one person can make change, but think of what a thousand or more could do that think and feel the same, it's my opinion, and to be able to voice my opinion is just That, and for you to voice yours is just that, yours. It all sounds great on paper, but where are you going to find Customers to pay the considerably higher freight bills to accommodate all of the pay and perks your Company will offer its Drivers. It is simple supply and demand. Capitalism if you will. There are Many Companies that offer much of what you spell out in your post. They Only hire the" Best and Brightest, so to speak. All of those things you mention will never be available to the majority of Drivers. That would be Utopia. Utopia does not exist here on Earth. Never has, Never will. Communists have been promising Utopia to the masses for generations and generations now. We know the results! I totally agree with you Brett, as you can read by the few replies, it's a topic that only few dare venture into, but again, I would do anything I could do to help my brother truck drivers .. the Driver is and always will be the heart and soul, and without him being told this and shown this, it's just an abuse of another man/ woman being prayed upon. The drivers are certainly the ones taking the most risk and making the most sacrifices to get freight moved around the country. No doubt about it. But at the same time there are an awful lot of drivers today working under conditions they're quite happy with. Most drivers that are working for successful carriers make very good money, especially for a blue collar job. Most are driving nearly new and very well maintained equipment. Most have solid benefits. Could things be better? Always. Could they be worse? Well they actually used to be quite a bit worse in a lot of ways. The trucks were far less comfortable and reliable. Many of the safety standards today either weren't enforced well or didn't exist at all years ago so drivers were running multiple logbooks and taking huge risks to make all the money they could. They were also forced into running illegal hours and unsafe equipment or they'd be sent packing. So wages have decreased relative to inflation but safety standards, driver protections, and even other areas within the industry like rest areas and truck stops have actually improved quite a bit over the years. So there's always room for improvement but it's gonna be a long, tough road. The profit margins are pretty slim in this industry so it's hard to really give drivers a sizeable wage increase and still remain profitable without making cutbacks elsewhere. Well, I this is a forum to share, and that's what I'm doing, just sharing my experiences and views, that's what Open Forum means, I'm not here to insure anyone, I'm simply stating facts, and I know there are SOME great Companies out there, it's just my opinion they are way to far few of them, and they can only hire so many? I would do anything that would benefit the driver, and I to would not want a mob scene or anything that would endanger a driver, I want to get the professional driver who is committed to this industry what he and his family deserve for the sacrifice we make each and every time we leave our family and go out and do a job that serves each and every person in this nation! And for all of you who don't take to heart of what we the professional truck driver do day in and day out,and take seriously, shame on you for not giving this industry what it deserves, 100 percent of safety, dedication and professionalism... You can hate all you want, bit you, will always be a part of the problem and not a part of the solution. Interestingly enough, most large corporations today were originally founded by some guy who thought he could do better than the current big players in the game were doing. Walmart was started out of disappointment for the way Kmart did things, Pappa Johns founded for the way Pizza Hut did things. So I'm all for people being disgruntled with the current situation to the point they're ready to take action. But creating a mob scene or going on strike isn't going to work in trucking. The industry is too fragmented. We need someone to start a company that pays their drivers so well and treats them so well that everyone will have to follow suit.

Retired persons often wish to enhance their current income. Many even want to make a contribution back to their community. These seemingly opposing wishes can be reconciled through a Charitable Gift Annuity, a form of planned giving. A charitable gift annuity involves a contribution of assets to a non-profit organization in exchange for fixed income payments under the terms of an annuity contract. Let's examine how the annuity works. First, how is the income amount determined? The fixed income is calculated using a fixed annuity rate (percentage) multiplied by the initial contribution. The rate (percentage) depends on the age of the person, or persons (if a couple), receiving the payments, and on the payment start date. The American Council on Gift Annuities publishes rate tables (available on-line) that many non-profits follow. These rates ensure that the charity keeps approximately 50% of the value of what was contributed to purchase the charitable gift annuity. For example, using the current tables, a person age 70 years, seeking an immediate gift annuity for his lifetime only could expect to receive an annual return (annuity) of 5.7 percent on the value of his initial one time contribution. If he contributes $100,000, then he will receive $5,700 each year for the rest of his life. [Note: The rate would decrease slightly if he received monthly or quarterly payments.] Moreover, if a couple were to purchase a charitable gift annuity and receive payments over their combined life expectancy – so that the surviving spouse would continue to receive annuity payments –then the rate would reflect the couple's combined actuarial life expectancy. Second, what assets can be contributed to "purchase" the annuity? Often these annuities are purchased with cash. Sometimes a charity will accept stocks and bonds or a residence (or ranch) in exchange for the annuity. Third, what are the tax consequences to a charitable gift annuity? If cash is contributed, then the consequences are as follows: (1) an immediate tax deduction in the year of the gift for the so-called present value of the charitable remainder; which means the excess of the initial cash contribution over the present value over the lifetime annuity income stream; and (2) annual recognition of ordinary income on the annuity interest income. If appreciated stocks or bonds are contributed, then in addition to ordinary interest income each year, capital gains will incrementally be recognized each year over the term of the annuity. Gradual recognition of the capital gains is usually much better than immediate recognition. That recognition would occur if one were to sell the stock first, and then "purchase" the charitable gift annuity. Lastly, charitable gift annuities presume a significant charitable intent on the part of the donor. Persons charitably included who wish both to make an immediate gift while alive and increase their income, may be interested. If so, call the planned giving department of the intended non-profit organization and request literature; then evaluate this option with your financial planner. Editor's Note: Dennis A.

In late September 2014, thousands of people started to occupy major streets in Hong Kong which lasted for more than two months. The protesters followed the call of the Occupy Central with Love and Peace movement, which had threatened civil disobedience if real democracy was denied. This had happened on August 31st when the Chinese National People's Congress Standing Committee released its restrictive decision on the implementation of universal suffrage for the chief executive. 1 Eventually, students initiated the street blockades after a week-long strike. When the peaceful protesters were met with tear gas, tens of thousands of Hongkongers were propelled to go to the streets to protest the excessive violence against the students and other activists. As the protesters had defended themselves with umbrellas, it became known as the Umbrella Movement. While the outburst of passionate protest activity was influenced by economic concerns similar to previous protests, it was primarily an anti-materialist movement which stressed self-sacrifice for real universal suffrage. Hong Kong has the highest income inequality among the developed economies of the world and worryingly this discrepancy is still increasing. While the Gini coefficient, which measures inequality, was already at an alarming 0.52 in 1996, that number had increased to 0.54 in 2011. This can be partially blamed on a business-dominated undemocratic political system which accords disproportionate power to the tycoons while neglecting the massive number of poor. Labor unions are extremely weak and unable to achieve much for their employees, who fear that striking could make them jobless in a highly competitive environment. Many people live in extremely crammed environments including cage homes that are so tiny it is impossible to sit upright. Recent measures to combat the problem such as the introduction of a minimum wage and the setting of an official poverty line have done little to stem the problem. This is due to the fact that these measures are highly insufficient as for instance the minimum wage of HK$30 (as of December 2014) is not enough to afford food and housing. The primary underlying factors driving the movement have therefore not been directly related to inequality but rather to the declining social mobility and worsening quality of life, 3 which affect those in the middle the most. In 2003, the inability of the government to deal with these problems were combined with the fear that even the civil rights, which are core values of Hongkongers, could be lost. It was triggered by the government's proposal to pass security legislation under Article 23 of the Basic Law, which threatened to undermine freedom of speech and assembly. As a consequence, an estimated 500,000 people joined in a massive rally through the central areas of Hong Kong island. The government eventually shelved the law and one year and another massive protest later, Tung Chee-hwa, the chief executive, also resigned. The recent Umbrella Movement has some things in common with previous pro-democracy protests. The main drivers behind the call for real democracy came from both students and academics, who were frustrated by the very slow progress of political reforms and deeply worried about the future of the city. The vast majority of participants were from middle income groups and not from those most affected by the deep social problems. In fact, a city-wide worker's strike, which was proposed by pan-democratic labor organizations, never materialized. The reality is that most workers rely on their meager salaries for survival and are not willing to risk their own jobs. The income inequality thus mattered more as a concern among academics. Much more close to the hearts of the activists was the fact that opportunities for upward mobility have become rare and housing costs make it very difficult to have a better life than previous generations. The movement also differed in one important aspect from most previous protests. Instead of emphasizing economic concerns, the Umbrella Movement epitomized the rejection of materialism and the money-making culture. It aspired to more idealistic goals such as the development of a truly democratic community in which people trust each other. A number of noteworthy events highlight this character of the movement. While the annual pro-democratic protest on 1st of July is used by many political parties and non-governmental organizations to collect donations, this was not the case in the two-month occupation. No one sold anything and people gave away stickers or postcards for free. Even the T-shirts and umbrellas

were sold at production costs. In addition, you could get free water, snacks, or hot soup from supply stations. Many Hongkongers who did not dare to participate, donated large amounts of resources for the supply stations that supported it. Another important difference was the fact that the Umbrella Movement was a site that stressed arts and handicrafts, which are generally held in low regard by the money-oriented society. Because the government has primarily focused on what it considers the four key pillars of the economy (financial services, trading and logistics, tourism, as well as producer and professional services), manufacturing and cultural industries have been neglected. In the main protest site, called Umbrella Square, volunteers erected a self-made study corner as well as a network of passageways for easier access. Yellow ribbons made out of leather were produced as well as T-shirts were printed with Umbrella themed logos for which people stood in long lines. Finally, impressive installation art and drawings of all kinds were displayed. These artworks dealt with underlying issues, such as the social problems, as well as the need to keep faith in a better, democratic future. A key characteristic of the movement was moreover its educational nature. A group of professors and lecturers offered free lectures which began already during the student boycott in late September. During the occupation, the "democracy classroom" moved to the streets. The more than 110 different talks primarily focused on topics related to the movement including democratic politics, liberties, civil disobedience, as well as comparative perspectives. This aspect of the movement demonstrated the attempt to create a more sophisticated citizenry that is more aware of its rights and why those are important for the future development of the city. While a great deal of the activity was concentrated on the three main protest sites, there was also an attempt to expand the movement into the larger society. The most prominent attempt was the use of a gigantic yellow banner, which was placed on Hong Kong's landmark Lion Rock, an iconic mountain that can be seen from most of Kowloon. This was, however, not only an attempt to increase visibility but also an attempt to redefine the core meaning of the Hong Kong identity. In the 1970s, the mountain was seen as synonymous with the can-do spirit of Hongkongers, who can overcome any difficulties to climb the social ladder. The group announced in their Youtube video that "We think the spirit of Lion Rock isn't just about money…the people fighting for universal suffrage all over Hong Kong have shown great perseverance in their fight against injustice and perseverance in the face of difficulties. This is the true Lion Rock spirit." 4 With other words, Hongkongers are aiming for more than merely economic success to develop a democratic society that respects everyone. The most obvious example of the anti-materialist bent of the protest movement was the most recent form of protest, the so-called "Shopping Revolution" which has driven hundreds of people to participate in unorganized but peaceful resistance protests almost every night. The movement emerged after the clearance of the Mongkok protest site. Inside the rugged shopping district, the protesters meet at the same movie theatre every night around 8pm and then proceed their "shopping" tour along Sai Yeung Choi Street, which is a very busy shopping street. It includes the frequent chanting of slogans, the use of yellow banners that call for democracy, and slow walking and tossing of coins and picking them up again. This form of protest emerged when CY Leung announced that, after the clearance of the protest site, people should go back to shopping, which had triggered the memory of a Chinese mainlander who had been interviewed by the media during an anti-democracy protest and had said that she was in Hong Kong for shopping. The protesters then upended this and went protesting that appears like shopping. As a result, hundreds of policemen are deployed every night in the area. In conclusion, Hong Kong's regime change is driven mainly by people in the middle income groups, who are worried about the future of the city. Economic concerns such as the high housing costs and the living expenses clearly play an important role but they are less important than more idealistic values such as personal liberties and democratic rights. The Umbrella Movement has been markedly anti-materialist and grassroots democratic as many participants were striving for something more valuable than financial wealth. At

With the holidays fast approaching and new years resolutions coming shortly after that it's easy to stress out and sweat the small things. The only problem with that is your body's response. Your body reacts to stress in ways that actually make you stress out more. It gains weight, it gets tired, it holds water and before you know it your body has sent you into a bout of anxiety or depression. Learning why this happens is the first step in taking action against chronic stress and its affect on your body. In this blog post we go over the basics of cortisol the "stress hormone" and what it does in the body so that you can take the necessary steps to stop stress from happening. Cortisol is a steroid hormone produced by the adrenal glands during times of stress. This is why it's commonly referred to as the "stress hormone." Most bodily cells have cortisol receptors so when the adrenals secrete the hormone it's sent throughout the body and attaches to those cells. The attachment to those cells is critical for normal daily functions of the body. Cortisol has been shown to keep blood sugar levels in check, regulate the body's metabolism and reduce inflammation. It also plays a role in the body's balance of water and salt; think bloated and holding water or high blood pressure because of too much salt. That all being said… the right amount of cortisol stimulation is critical for your health. Cortisol naturally rises and falls throughout the day and night and is stimulated during exercise to help breakdown muscle tissue so that you can rebuild it bigger and stronger with proper recovery. (Remember this little tid bit for later.) However, it is also stimulated with stress or situations we view as stressful. Constantly stimulated levels of cortisol can over time burn out your adrenal glands so they cannot secrete enough for your bodily needs but in the process you will have the side effects of overstimulation. These side effects range from weight gain (especially around the abdomen,) decreased bone density, problems sleeping, loss of muscle mass, high blood pressure, depression, anxiety, weakened immune system and in most cases little to no results with efforts to lose weight through exercise and diet. Unfortunately for us stressful situations seem to be everywhere we turn. Whether its family, finances, career, relationships, self-esteem or body image problems our little adrenal glands pump out cortisol with every situation. Now lets take into account our fitness industry that promotes radical diets, quick fixes, extreme exercise programs and the mentality that fitness is life and your cortisol levels are going to spike just thinking about it. Extreme diets are considered a stress on the body. Extreme workout programs are considered a stress on the body. Combine the two and you have a recipe for disaster. Now lets dig a little deeper… back in the beginning of the blog where I wrote that exercise stimulates cortisol, it does for a reason. The reason we exercise is to breakdown muscle tissue so that when we leave the gym we go home and focus on recovery so we can stop the spike of cortisol and rebuild our muscle tissue. Rebuilding muscle tissue leads to a faster metabolism and fat loss over time. Unfortunately since our exercise programs usually come with an extreme diet nowadays you're actually not getting the adequate nutrients to start this recovery process and therefore your cortisol levels are not coming back down. Now we can take it a step further and say you're going back into the gym later on for an extra session and re-stimulating your body to pump out even more cortisol even though you never brought your levels back down from before. Can you see how this could be a vicious cycle that would just burn your body out rather than help you lose weight and get healthy? This is the problem that most of us are dealing with and without the proper education of how our bodies work most have had no idea. Handling stress so your body has the chance to recover and rebuild each day is critical to your weight loss success as well as success in your relationships, business and overall wellbeing. So what can you do? The right amount of exercise can be an amazing stress reliever. Getting in a workout that is a combination of cardiovascular training and resistance training is the trick. Be efficient with your workouts and find a workout that combines both components. Don't let the work

Join the hand-wound revolution! A new manual mechanical watch with exhibition caseback from Marloe Watch Company. 620 backers pledged £192,318 to help bring this project to life. Marloe Watch Company is an independent designer and producer of wrist watches based in Oxfordshire, England. They launched their first watch, the Cherwell, on Kickstarter in January 2016 to a fantastic reception. The company's values are strongly bound to tradition and design. And it's these values, along with a passion for timepieces, that inspired the creation of beautiful watches powered by manual, mechanical movements. As watches get smarter, and lives more complicated, there is a movement embracing the slow-living counter culture, going back to the simple things, celebrating tradition. So as the technology brands fight it out over who makes the smartest watch, Marloe is proudly going against the grain to create the most traditional of all watches - the hand-wound timepiece. The Lomond Chronoscope, from Marloe Watch Co. Following on from our successful debut Kickstarter for the Cherwell, Marloe Watch Company is delighted to announce their follow-up campaign for the Lomond Chronoscope. Named after one of Scotland's most famous Lochs, as well as countless cultural references, the Lomond expands the growing range of timepieces from MWC, which now includes the original Kickstarter campaign's Cherwell and the new smaller diameter Derwent. The Lomond Chronoscope is a manual mechanical wristwatch that includes a "stop-watch" feature, a ceramic bezel insert and exhibition case-back. It is 43mm in diameter x 11mm high (13.6mm to crystal zenith), 46.6mm tip-to-toe and has a 22mm strap-width. We wanted to create a timepiece with a foot in both the traditional and the contemporary; with a strikingly unique yet reassuringly familiar design. For the Lomond Chronoscope we kept some elements of our earlier designs whilst developing a timepiece that stands apart, not just within our own range but also within the market it exists. This is a more complex mechanical timepiece, offering both accurate timekeeping and time measurement, therefore the design needs to reflect the need for additional information, whilst remaining true to our core belief of essentials only, clutter free design. The Lomond Chronoscope comes in 4 colour-ways, split into Classic and Vintage aesthetics. For the Classics there's a White and Grey dial, both with a Telemeter scale matt ceramic bezel. For the Vintage models, there's a Coffee and Vanilla dial with a simple 60 second scale polished ceramic bezel. The Classic White dial features the same pearlescent white paint from the Cherwell but applied to a sandblasted surface to give a beautiful paper like texture with a semi-metallic sheen. The main printed markings are dark grey with red accents and the hour blocks are polished to match the hands - a classic combination. The Classic White has mirror polished main and sub-dial hands with a painted dark grey Chronoscope hand to match the outer markings. The case, crown & pushers are mirror polished with a matt black ceramic bezel, Telemeter scale engraved and paint-filled white. The Classic White is fitted with a bold orange leather strap. The Classic Grey is bold and refined. The dial is a charcoal grey, applied to a sandblasted surface to give a beautiful paper-like matt / semi-pearlescent finish. The main printed markings are in white with red accents, and the hour blocks are polished to match the hands. The case, crown & pushers are bead-blasted, and the bezel matt black ceramic with white filled engraving for a wonderfully tactile utility feel. The polished hands contrast the dark grey dial to assist in quick time-reading. The Classic Grey is adorned with a matching dark grey leather strap. Striking. Different. The Vintage Coffee has a luscious deep brown, almost black dial colour. In one light it appears a glossy inky black, helped with the reflection from the crystal. In another light and angle it's a flat espress

o brown. The main printed markings are a combination of vintage cream with red and white accents; polished hour blocks match the polished hands. The sub-dials feature a turned brass aesthetic complementing the markings, with a vintage cream Chronoscope hand completing the look. The case is polished to a mirror shine, with matching crown and pushers. The Vintage cases feature a polished black ceramic bezel with a 60 second gradation scale engraved and paint-filled white. The Vintage Coffee is fitted with a black leather strap, contrasting white stitching and brass rivets to compliment the sub-dials. If the Classic White dial is just too classic, and you want something subtly different, the Vintage Vanilla is the one for you. A beautiful vanilla pearlescent dial shimmers in the changing light, from deep warm grey in lower light to a bright radiating off-white in lighter environments. A combination of vintage cream and dark grey accents keep the dial subtle yet still easily readable. Dark grey painted hour blocks stand proud from the lower surface. Polished main and sub-dial hands match up with a dark grey Chronoscope hand to tie everything together. The case is again polished with matching crown and pushers, with the deep glossy inky black ceramic bezel with engraved white markings. The Vintage Vanilla is strapped with dark brown leather, contrast white stitching and brass rivets to complete the vintage range. The Special Edition dial features the same pearlescent white paint from the Classic White dial and applied to a sandblasted surface to give the same beautiful paper like texture with a semi-metallic sheen. The sub-dials are the inverse of the dial, or Panda as it's called. The outer ring minute markings are red, with dark grey 1/5th seconds markings. The hour blocks are polished to match the hands, as are the main and sub-dial hands, whereas the Chronoscope hand is painted red to match the outer markings. The case, crown & pushers are mirror polished with a matt black ceramic bezel, Telemeter scale engraved and paint-filled white. The Special Edition is fitted with a matching Grey leather strap. Please note - the Special Edition imagery is for illustration purposes only. The dial is yet to go into production so we do not have any further images at this time. For more shots of all designs, please visit our shared album. The movement within the Lomond is a special one; it has history. Originally developed by Fabrique d'Ebauches Venus S.A in the 1940's, the Venus 175 was used in many high-end timepieces, most notably by Breitling. Soon this 175 Caliber was copied by a Russian firm and came to be known as the Strela. When Venus decided that they wanted to develop a new movement, the 180, they went looking for buyers for their Venus 175 caliber. The Soviets didn't want it - they had their cloned Strela movement, but the Chinese just so happened to be looking for a movement to install in a new pilot's watch for their air force. Venus sold everything to the Chinese - machinery included. After the war the caliber soon filtered down to consumer watches and has ultimately become the Seagull ST19. In part, due to the history and background, the ST19 still shares the robustness and accuracy of the Venus 175, which is why we've chosen it for the Lomond Chronoscope. The case has been designed with a few goals - firstly to cradle the complicated mechanical movement efficiently, presenting its visual complexity and remaining as slim as possible. The second was to design a case that sits beautifully on the wrist, tucks neatly under a shirt or cuff and is easy to operate when wrist-borne. Third the case was to feel robust and solid but not overly cumbersome. The result is a case tapering from a diameter of 38mm at the case-back, to 43mm at the edges of the static bezel. At 11mm deep, the case sits unobtrusively on the wrist. With the lugs bending downwards, coupled with the restrained 46.

6mm top-to-toe measurement, the Lomond sits comfortably on the wrist. The signature crown and Chronoscope pushers are supported with small flats which mould out from the case seamlessly, with the bezel nestled within a thin steel frame. Few things go together better than polished stainless steel and black ceramic. Whilst steel is inherently surgical and clean, ceramic has a depth and warmth that other treated or coated materials can't replicate - it's also incredibly strong in compression and remarkably scratch resistant. We have chosen to use both matt and polished black ceramic for our Lomond range, and they do a great job of proportioning out the dial and case to keep the Lomond from feeling too big. The hidden gem, the resplendent secret. There's something palpable about a reaction to the Lomond Chronoscope's exhibition case-back, when turned over to reveal the open window to the heart within. The oscillating balance wheel and hairspring gently bouncing back and forth; the three central wheels all moving in sync; the warm shimmer of gold, blue and ruby all encapsulated under the sapphire crystal case-back. It all adds up to a visual spectacle unlike most others. Perimeter printing on the underside of the crystal reveals a few details whilst adding its own interest; an inverse print of transparent text within a black border. A true showpiece, hidden when in use but gloriously revealed at your choosing. A quote from poet and lyricist, Robert Burns, from his 1790 narrative poem, Tam o' Shanter, continues the Scottish inspiration for the Lomond. "Nae man can tether time or tide" Our watches need input from you to keep them alive - that's the joy of manual winding movements; turning the crown keeps the engine ticking. For the Lomond Chronoscope the crown retains the outline form and scalloped & engraved end-cap from the Cherwell, but halves the number of grooves in the surface to compliment the more contemporary design, whilst keeping the grip required to turn it. The crown features a double o-ring construction allowing a tight seal to be formed against any rogue splashes. Acrylic Crystal. Robust, durable and repairable; it's something of a touchy subject in the watch world. For some the relative susceptibility to scratches is a negative. We think not - it may take a scuff easier than say mineral or sapphire crystal, but unlike the latter two options, acrylic crystals can be polished to remove these scratches easily. It doesn't matter if it's 1 day old or 1 year old; a dab of Polywatch or swipe of a Cape-Cod cloth and the crystal can be refreshed to brand new. Acrylic also has a warm, vintage aesthetic that just can't be replicated with other forms of crystal. It's also light, can be moulded in to pretty much any shape and is easily replaceable. Sapphire crystal was explored but the cost to produce this custom profile would have significantly impacted the affordability, and a redesign to allow for standard double-domed sapphire crystal would have made the Lomond significantly thicker - a compromise too far. The Lomond crystal achieves a few things. Firstly, it limits the height of the watch by having a top-hat style profile - tall at the edges, flat in the middle. We've put a large radius on the outer edge that directly coincides with the Chronoscope track below, resulting in a wonderful magnifying effect. This elongates the minute markers from the outer Chronoscope track, whilst disguising the smaller 1/5th second markers. This not only makes reading the time at a glance exceptionally easy, but it adds an extra element of dynamic when you rotate the timepiece around and watch the light refraction play off the surface. The dial continues the standout feature of our Cherwell design, with a double layered dial and sharply recessed sub-dials. The metal hour blocks are positioned to extend out from the upper level, adding a sharp metallic line in amongst the beautiful pearlescent paint. Markings are kept to essentials and the functions separated with the 2 layers. The bottom, outer layer features the Chronoscope seconds track, with each second segmented 5 times to capture

the 1/5th second accuracy. The upper layer has minimal markings, with only small pips of Superluminova to point you towards the hours. A double pip at 12 helps with orientation in the twilight. The sub-dials are framed with the corresponding markings for the function - the running seconds sub-dial has 60 markings, with 4 bolder markings at the main quadrants. The 30 minute timer has 30 markings, with bolder markings at each 5 minute interval. Within the sub-dials are numerals for ease of reference. Legibility is essential, which is why the Lomond has simple polished hands, infilled with Superluminova. A long, thin, counter-weighted Chronoscope second-hand is poised ready for action, the tip coated with Superluminova. The sub-dials use the same polished hands from the Cherwell, a nod to its predecessor. When day turns to night you want to still be able to read the time, so the Lomond Chronoscope features Superluminova C3 on the hands and dial. Small pips arrayed around the upper level at the hourly markers make time-telling quick and easy - a double pip at 12 o'clock orients the watch easily. The Chronoscope hand features a lume tip. Both hour and minute hands are infilled with Superluminova C3. We wanted a bold set of straps to match the bold design of the Lomond, and as such we have 4 straps - 2 for the Classics, 2 for the Vintage. The Classic models get a padded orange and a grey strap using genuine calf leather with embossed croc texture. The Vintage models have brass rivets through genuine brown and black calf leather, with a lovely bold grain and contrasting stitching. Generously thick at 4mm. All straps feature a engraved buckle, displaying the MWC crown icon, and soft lining leather with embossed logos. Our Lomond straps also have quick release spring-bars to allow for quick and easy strap changes. You can read more about the Lomond Chronoscope in an exclusive review by Worn&Wound. If Junghans ever produced a sports chronograph under the Max Bill line, I can't help but imagine this isn't too far off from what that might be. All in all, they nailed it. Inspired by our original Cherwell box, we've designed a single tier box especially for the Lomond. Made from 3mm cardboard and wrapped in sumptuous Fedrigoni paper, the box contains a single tray with its own precision-milled dense foam cavity to hold your Lomond securely in place. The box is imprinted with a clear foil logo and finished with a pristine band with our embossed crown icon. Inside you'll find a traditional letter-pressed insert telling you a little more about the Lomond. The full retail price for the Lomond will be £449/$559. We will not be selling the Lomond in retail until all Kickstarter rewards have been shipped. Upon the conclusion of the Kickstarter campaign we will be sending out a survey where you will indicate which colour option(s) you would like and confirm your shipping address as well as other relevant details. We will ship the Lomond Chronoscope worldwide, with the exception of: Argentina, Belarus, Cuba, Iran, Iraq, Lebanon, Libya, Myanmar/Burma, North Korea, Russia, Somalia, Sudan, Syria and Yemen. Please note that you may be responsible for duties, fees and taxes applicable in your region. We expect to start fulfilling orders in October 2017. While we do not expect this deadline to move, it is possible that the estimated shipment month may shift. If at any time you would like an update, please either check the "Updates" section of our Kickstarter Campaign, or feel free to email us at [email protected]. We stand firmly behind our products. Each Marloe watch includes a 1-year limited warranty. For more information please see www.marloewatchcompany.com.

Overview: This ought to be fun. It's a collection of stories, long and short, in the three sides of urban fantasy. The editors and writers have included essays on the different sides of urban fantasy. Useful for those, like me, that have barely scratched the surface. Let's get on with the stories, shall we? Overview: It's a musical journey for John. The journey starts when he meets Willie for Open Stage night at the Orpheus. Willie dresses in an old-fashioned way, has plenty of advise about music to offer, and seems otherworldly at times. Likes: Good switch Ms. Bull. I could have sworn that Willie was a vampire. But the clues to his identity were well placed. Biggest hint: music, singing…hint, hint. Conclusion: I liked this one. It was fun. Overview: Wow. Maida and Zia, part of the Cousins as they call themselves, have gotten themselves caught up in human affairs. Well Maida has anyway. Promises are sacred to the Cousins, and she has made a doozy. Oh, did I mention that it's to a ghost? Likes: This story explains a lot of how family relationships work. Maddy's death was open to your interpretation. But it was Donnie and their mother that I felt for the most. Every family has feelings like this, and it's nice to see it being portrayed as just the way it is. Conclusion: As close as this is to a true depiction of mother and child, this will be a 'love it or hate it' story. I enjoyed it , even though it was sad. Overview: Um, what was this? I have no idea where we were going here. All I know is it's all 30 minutes away. Conclusion: I didn't like this one. It was confusing. This is the second time something from Mr. Gaiman just confused me, so I'll count my losses with his works. Overview: This starts out like a bad joke. A guy picks up Jesus and the Devil. It wasn't a funny one either. Conclusion: This is another one that I didn't care for. Jesus wasn't portrayed in the best light. And I'm not talking about the smoking and drinking either. Overview: What do you get when an artist with a magical background finds a tapestry that shows something that she doesn't like? Hang on for Julie here. Likes: This was kind of cool. A teacup unicorn, the joy of all little girls. Or was that just me? The ending was sweet. Conclusion: I liked this one. Julie's grandmother must have been one scary woman to disobey. This ends the "Mythic Fiction" sub-genre. We go to "Paranormal Romance" next. Overview: Mary is worried. Edric has seemed to close himself away from her. And she fears he might be cheating on her. Conclusion: This is a cautionary tale. I'm not sure what to make of this one. All I do know is that the relationship could never work under the guidelines both parties put it under. Overview: Tanya and Nathan have bought a supposedly haunted house. Haunted bed and breakfasts are considered to be all the rage these days. Not that Tanya has bought any of those stories. So why are there so many freaky occurrences with Nathan at the center? Likes: I like haunted house stories. This one is no different. Tanya's fear is quite understandable. The ending now, that was the real kicker. Conclusion: Isn't karma something? I liked this one. Overview: Oh my. Young love, or more like teen love. A teenager with his witch and the last night of summer. Likes: It was a pretty neat story. A guy bringing out the beauty he sees in a woman. It just got a little weird when you find out Johnny's secret. Conclusion: What comes around, goes around. Why can't anyone get this? I liked this one. Overview: Kitty just wants a New Year's kiss. Is that too much to ask? When a woman in a stupor shows up at the party, it's up to Kitty to figure out what's wrong with her. The joys of having a supernatural call-in program. L

ikes: Kitty's research on zombies was kind of fun to follow. And the way that they were able to help Beth was sweet. Conclusion: I liked the character of Kitty, not so sure about reading her story any further though. I did like this story. Overview: Tom is searching for Jon, his brother both in blood and in blue. To aid his search, he is sent to Moira to help him. Since the group that has Jon is called the Samhaim Coven, he needs a witch's help. Good thing Moira isn't scared. Likes: Tom is my kind of guy. He doesn't care what he has to do to get the job done. Let him watch my back. Conclusion: I liked this one. Maybe I ought to find more on Patricia Briggs. Overview: Would you take out a repentant vampire for the chance of ultimate forgiveness? That's what Anthony has been offered. Did I mention that the hit takes place in the Vatican? Conclusion: I didn't like this one. God doesn't play these games. Overview: We have another werewolf story. One about young teens. Conclusion: This one is just sick. I'm pretty freaked out by the main character. I hated it. Overview: A woman's son was eaten by zombies. So she's out to help others threatened by them. The only question is, was Max really eaten by zombies? Conclusion: Have I mentioned how little I like unreliable narrators? I think it's the feeling of being lied to. This is just one reason I didn't care for the story. The other reason is how Ms. Block referred to those with the slightest conservative slant. This ends our trip through "Paranormal Romance." All in all, it wasn't a bad trip. We're starting the "Fantasy Noir" next. Overview: Another bipartisan story with an unreliable narrator. Tawana is worried about vampires attacking the Somali refugees in Minneapolis. Conclusion: Why is it that there is no backlash when the liberals start preaching in their stories? C.S. Lewis is still taking flack for "The Chronicles of Narnia." Preaching, of any kind, isn't much fun to read. I didn't like this one. Overview. This is different. Here we have Gestella, a werewolf who falls in love with a man named Jonathan. Conclusion: This story was awful. Between the second person point-of-view and the ending, well it made for terrible reading, and made no sense. Especially since the ending made the story void. There are more stories in the "Fantasy Noir" section, but this is where I stop. Over all Conclusion: After 'Gestella,' I bummed out on the anthology. Out of twenty stories seven were good, eight I couldn't stand, and five I couldn't read. I did look up the last five stories, and found that "Fantasy Noir" really isn't my style. Maybe, you will like it better. Overview: Nicholas Drummond, a man with dual citizenship–his mother was an American actress, his father is British nobility I think–, is coming into his probationary period with the FBI. Too bad it starts out with such a bang. A rare book dealer is murdered in the middle of Wall Street. Then the man's children disappear. Story Telling: This was a well written story. Many things were hidden in plain sight and made for a fun read. Likes: A lot of my likes came from Zachary. He was supposed to be the boss, and he managed to keep a real smart mouth. Nigel's relationship with Nicholas reminded me more of friends instead of employer/employee. Mike has the perfect job for here. It seemed like she was getting pretty high there at some points. Dislikes: The only real problem that I had with the book was Josef, Leo, and William's side story. For the most part, it could have been combined into a prologue as much of the information lead into the main story, yet didn't give too much away. Favorite Scene: My favorite part was how Nicholas and Mike were able to rescue Adam. I'd have loved to see the looks on the operators' faces when that signal went out. Conclusion: This really was a fun

trip. Hopefully the next one won't book as international. Not that this one was too bad, it was basically America and England. I wonder what's next in Nicholas's and Mike's lives. I received this book courtesy of Mrs. Harris for the purpose of a fair and honest review. Overview: Keith Brown has been offered a deal of the century. Valerie Scovall, a judge now but a lawyer several years ago, has hired him to find out what happened to two men who ran a Surrogate program, Lake Shore Parenting Group, quite a few years a ago. Was it murder or an accident. Story Telling: For the most part, this story was told in a first person point-of-view in Keith's perspective. There is one scene that is a bit jarring though. It's when Keith and Valerie meet. The scene is in first person, up until Keith walks in Valerie's office, then it switches to third person so to describe Keith. Likes: Keith's doggedness is to be admired. Dislikes: This is a drama filled story. One that suffers from somebody trying to be too politically correct. For fun see if you can identify the gay, black, white, and liberal characters. Really the worst part is that for a mystery, there wasn't many mysterious thing happening. Where was the intrigue, the clues being dropped, the investigation of the murders? Conclusion: It's not going to be to everyone's tastes. Hope you like listening to drama queens when you pick this one up. I received this book courtesy of Mrs. Bean for a fair and honest review. Overview: Oh no! The Sun went down and never came back. What are Kaylee, Mattie, Lily, and Fran to do? Try to get it back of course. Story Telling: The story was written to attract young readers. Mrs. Bean is rhyming in a similar vein as Dr. Seuss. Likes: The pace of the story combined with the charming illustrations make this an immersive book for most children. Dislikes: The book gives an inaccurate portrait of why children don't go out to play anymore. It's not because of the games or the internet. Most parents won't send their children outside in such dangerous places. Are you going to let a child go out to play with the risks that (s)he'll be snatched or caught in a drive by? No sane person would. I agree that children need more exercise and playtime, but it's a new day dawning and more care needs to be taken. Favorite Scene: My favorite part was when the girls came up with a plan to talk to the Moon and bring back the Sun. Conclusion: This is a cute idea. I'd read it and explain why going outside is to be a planned excursion with a parent or guardian around. I received this book courtesy of Mr. Cornelison for the purpose of a fair and honest review. Overview: Mr. Cornelison, one half of the Cornelison team on Season 13 of 'The Biggest Loser,' wishes to show us how Go used a reality show to change his life. So basically, it's a memoir. Story Telling: Remember what I said about the overuse of italics in the last book? This one was loaded with them. Needless to say, it was a slow read. Likes: There were nice summarizing points at the end of each chapter. Dislikes: I didn't care for all of the italics. There must be a better way for emphasis. Nor did I care for the Christian vie of weight gain. Please tell me where in the Bible God says "Thou shalt not be fat." Or, even better, which Biblical group had a problem with Jesus being a glutton? Favorite Scene: I like how Mr. Cornelison spent the time with his son. Conclusion: You'll probably like this one if you liked 'The Biggest Loser.' Personally, I never have watched the show, nor do I wish to start, but to each his own. I received this book courtesy of Mr. Flynn for the purpose of a fair and honest review. Overview: Mr. Flynn wants to let us in on a little secret. What's the secret you ask? It's that with the help of your family and the right frame of mind, you can live with anything and keep a positive attitude. It isn'

A lot of people desire to make money in real estate but lose all they have because they didn't have the proper knowledge. Thankfully, you came across this great article filled with lots of tips from Phil Pustejovsky, a real estate expert. This will show you the right way to invest. Read on for some excellent advice on real estate investing. Always familiarize yourself with property values in the area. Knowing what the rent and mortgage if other properties is will give you a better idea of what the value of your property is. Once you have a good understanding of the street level conditions, you can make wiser decisions. Read more at www.freedommentors.com. Your investments should never tap into your emergency funds. Understand that when you invest in real estate, your money may not be readily available. This is a state of affairs that could go on for a number of years. Make sure that it does not have a negative impact on your everyday life. Be prepared for good and bad times when investing in real estate. You must not be discourage by these lulls in the market. Just stay persistent to find success. Push forward, learn more from blogs like Freedom Mentor, and always keep trying so that you can accomplish your goals. Tips like these can help you do well with real estate investing. Review these tips often to gain additional investing skills, and you will surely reap the rewards. You can also spend some money on commercial real estate investing coaching to expand your knowledge. Let others know what you have learned so that they will be able to profit as well. Location is crucial. The condition of a property can be corrected; however, the location cannot be changed. You want to pay close attention to other properties in that area and see if the house prices have been inflating or deflating. Know what you are doing and make sure to research the areas around where you live. Don't purchase property in neighborhoods with crime issues. Be mindful of the area in which a prospective property is. Do all of your homework in advance. Homes in bad neighborhoods are often low-priced. You might have trouble reselling, and vandalism may be problematic. Don't invest more than you can afford. If you are investing in rental property, you should be able to pay the mortgage even if there are empty units. It's not smart to expect your rental income to pay your mortgage payment. Connect with other investors in real estate. Find out what tips and tricks they have learned along the way. It can be a great way to increase your personal knowledge. A great way to find some is by using the internet. Find forums to be active on and find meetings in your area. You must consider location when you look at real estate. Even a ramshackle property can be a wise investment if it is located well. Think about the location and its potential. Be sure that you get advice from experts. Before bidding on a property, talk to someone experienced in real estate. Speak to appraisers or agents, for instance. The more knowledge you have, the better choices you can make. If you are moving toward making real estate investing a career or a way to bring in extra money, jump in and start learning right away. Procrastination is a big mistake in the real estate market. Waiting around does nothing to build your knowledge and experience base. When calculating profits, always factor in the costs of repairs that the inspection dictated as necessary. You will have to make most general repairs before selling a property. If you want to rent the property to someone, you have to think about how much maintenance will be. Just make sure to give yourself a cushion when calculating potential profits. First, inspect the neighborhood. Does it look like everybody is leaving? Talk to your potential new neighbors and ask what the area is like. Next, look at the land. If you notice that the yard is on a downwards slope towards the property, the foundations could be affected by rain water. Noticing bad smells, both in and out of the property is problematic too. Bugs and insects are a bad sign as well. If there have been bugs or insects, people in the street are likely to know about it, so ask them. Next, it is time to look at how the property was treated by the current owners. Find out whether it was maintained properly. If you notice that there is a lack of structural maintenance on the outside, the inside will probably be the same. Check the wiring as well. Real issues can only be identified by a qualified professional, but you can get a good idea yourself. If

lights flicker or outlets are warm, there is a chance that the wiring is faulty. Similarly, if you notice that there is a single wall, or just a few walls that have been painted very recently, where others haven't, the owners may be hiding something. Next, look closely at the windows. Look at whether the windows have mold or condensation or are hard to open; this could be a sign of expensive problems.If an owner declares certain rooms as "off limit", then go find a different home to buy. Additionally, if you notice that any structural work has been done, such as the removal of walls or floors, you need to find out whether that work was done properly by a qualified architect. Basically, you should not purchase a property that has not gone through a professional inspection. With the information above, you should be able to tell whether or not you might want to hire a professional inspector, or whether it is a clear no on the purchase. If the property does have problems, you can decide to walk away from it, or you can demand a substantial discount in order to pay for the repairs. Also, always trust the advice of home inspectors. Home inspectors will tell you honestly whether or not a certain property is worth investing in. The reason why you are selling a property will have a huge effect on the price you end up getting for it. As such, even if you are simply looking for a quick sale, do also try to be motivated by profit, as this will help you get a higher price. To get your home sold at the best possible price, there are a few things you should do. First of all, you have to decide why you want to sell. You need to know your motivation, as it will also help you to determine what your available resources (effort, money and time) are. For instance, wanting a quick sale and wanting a huge profit are two incredibly different things. You have to get to know your home's pros and cons. Make sure that all the good things are highlighted and try to conceal the bad things as much as possible. Do make sure that you get someone to help you find out about all the good and bad points. It is very hard to see the bad in something that you have called home for so long. Unfortunately, you are also driven by your own emotions. As such, ask someone else what they believe the pros and cons of your property to be. You could either hire a professional, or you could simply ask people you know for their opinion. A professional costs money, but the opinion of friends could sting, so do consider which option is the best. Hopefully, the above information will have given you the knowledge you need to make a quick sale at a good price. Clearly, there is no need for you to invest a great deal of money, nor do you have to be an expert in anything. They are all simple, common sense actions that make a huge impact. Happy selling and good luck. Your realtor's experience is one of the most important things to look into. Usually, realtors with more experience are also better at their job. If you can, try to find a realtor who has worked all the way through the economic crisis and still works now. Next, make sure that the experience they have is relevant to your own needs. Someone who wants to flip properties, for instance, will have very different needs to someone who wants to find a home to raise a family in. You also need to know that your realtor understands your demographic and geographical requirements. For example, if you want to become a rancher, you need to find a realtor that is able to understand the different types of land, how it has been produced and what the homestead is like. Similarly, if you were hoping to purchase a listed or historic property, you will need someone that understands the laws and regulations surrounding those properties. Don't work with the realtor of the owners of the property you are planning to purchase. By law, the realtor will have to pass on any information you give to the seller as well. Similarly, if you want to sell, you also need a different realtor. You should work with someone that represents just you. The first thing you should try is ask people you know whether they can recommend anybody to you. Another place to look for a good realtor is the NAR (National Association of Realtors. Finding a NAR realtor means that you are guaranteed to be represented ethically and professionally. You should always try to contact different realtors before choosing one. You should discuss your needs with them, finding out what kind of suggestions they offer. These conversations can help you determine just how much a realtor knows about a specific neighborhood,

house prices and so on. If you want to sell your home, find out how the realtor has done in the past. What you must find out is whether they tend to sell below, on or above the asking price. In most cases, if you want to sell your property, your agent will require you to sign an exclusivity agreement. This is a common procedure but it does not mean you lose any rights. For example, if you realtor does not represent you properly, you can always terminate the contract. All it means is that you are only able to work with a single agent at the same time. As a buyer, you do not have to sing such an agreement. However, some realtors are starting to insist on it. Last but not least, you need to understand the way realtors earn their living. Realtors can earn their money in a variety of different ways. In most cases, you will find that a realtor is paid a commission on the final sale price of the property, but some work on flat fees. Before you agree to work with a realtor, therefore, you must understand which one of the two constructions they work with. It is always a good idea to enlist the services of a realtor, whether you are buying or selling. Although most of us know at least one person who works as a realtor, don't be tempted to automatically go to them as they may not be the best to represent your needs. Let's review two issues of importance when it comes to choosing a realtor. Firstly, you should find out how experienced your realtor is. Usually, realtors with more experience are also better at their job. The best realtors got into the business before the recent economic crisis and are still working today. However, you also have to make sure that they have experience pertinent to your own needs. Someone who wants to flip properties, for instance, will have very different needs to someone who wants to find a home to raise a family in. The second thing you need to know if how much of an expert they are in terms of the geography and demographics you require. For example, those who want to purchase a ranch will need a realtor that understands soil conditions and production methods and who can also look into the homestead that comes with the ranch. If, on the other hand, you want to purchase a listed building or a historic property, you will need someone that has a very different type of experience. Once you have looked into experience, you must review the realtor's reputation as well. It is easy enough to find a realtor that has a really bad name, unfortunately. There are a number of tools at your disposal to find a good realtor, fortunately. Be sure to check the Better Business Bureau in terms of finding out how good the realtor is. Do make sure you also use social media to your advantage. It is very difficult to censor anything that appears on social media, meaning you can easily get your hands on honest reviews. Do also ask the opinion of people you know. Do make sure, however, that you look into any complaints you here and how these apply to you, and whether the realtor has been able to resolve them satisfactorily. Usually, seller's realtors will ask you sign an exclusive agreement with them. This is completely normal, but it doesn't mean you don't have rights. If, for example, you feel you are being poorly represented, you are allowed to terminate the contract. All the contract really prohibits is for you to work with more than one agent at the same time. Buyers, on the other hand, usually do not have to sign these contracts. However, there is a changing facing in the world and many now ask their buying clients to sign a contract as well. Realtors have to earn a living and you need to understand just how they do that. Realtors can earn their money in a variety of different ways. Although there are a few realtors who charge a flat fee, the majority of them will work on commission. Before you agree to work with a specific realtor, you have to find out which type of payment construction they opt for. Real estate investing can be both a complete failure or a complete success. Everybody believes that location, location, location is what matters the most, but it is actually more important to know who you are dealing with. Unfortunately, there are some really unscrupulous people in the world of real estate. Think of the people you see on late night television, who promise to make you a millionaire. Also, make sure that your investment isn't too risky. Although there is always a risk in real estate, some options are higher risk than others. Avoid ten

Of course it is, and again, one person can make change, but think of what a thousand or more could do that think and feel the same, it's my opinion, and to be able to voice my opinion is just That, and for you to voice yours is just that, yours. It all sounds great on paper, but where are you going to find Customers to pay the considerably higher freight bills to accommodate all of the pay and perks your Company will offer its Drivers. It is simple supply and demand. Capitalism if you will. There are Many Companies that offer much of what you spell out in your post. They Only hire the" Best and Brightest, so to speak. All of those things you mention will never be available to the majority of Drivers. That would be Utopia. Utopia does not exist here on Earth. Never has, Never will. Communists have been promising Utopia to the masses for generations and generations now. We know the results! I totally agree with you Brett, as you can read by the few replies, it's a topic that only few dare venture into, but again, I would do anything I could do to help my brother truck drivers .. the Driver is and always will be the heart and soul, and without him being told this and shown this, it's just an abuse of another man/ woman being prayed upon. The drivers are certainly the ones taking the most risk and making the most sacrifices to get freight moved around the country. No doubt about it. But at the same time there are an awful lot of drivers today working under conditions they're quite happy with. Most drivers that are working for successful carriers make very good money, especially for a blue collar job. Most are driving nearly new and very well maintained equipment. Most have solid benefits. Could things be better? Always. Could they be worse? Well they actually used to be quite a bit worse in a lot of ways. The trucks were far less comfortable and reliable. Many of the safety standards today either weren't enforced well or didn't exist at all years ago so drivers were running multiple logbooks and taking huge risks to make all the money they could. They were also forced into running illegal hours and unsafe equipment or they'd be sent packing. So wages have decreased relative to inflation but safety standards, driver protections, and even other areas within the industry like rest areas and truck stops have actually improved quite a bit over the years. So there's always room for improvement but it's gonna be a long, tough road. The profit margins are pretty slim in this industry so it's hard to really give drivers a sizeable wage increase and still remain profitable without making cutbacks elsewhere. Well, I this is a forum to share, and that's what I'm doing, just sharing my experiences and views, that's what Open Forum means, I'm not here to insure anyone, I'm simply stating facts, and I know there are SOME great Companies out there, it's just my opinion they are way to far few of them, and they can only hire so many? I would do anything that would benefit the driver, and I to would not want a mob scene or anything that would endanger a driver, I want to get the professional driver who is committed to this industry what he and his family deserve for the sacrifice we make each and every time we leave our family and go out and do a job that serves each and every person in this nation! And for all of you who don't take to heart of what we the professional truck driver do day in and day out,and take seriously, shame on you for not giving this industry what it deserves, 100 percent of safety, dedication and professionalism... You can hate all you want, bit you, will always be a part of the problem and not a part of the solution. Interestingly enough, most large corporations today were originally founded by some guy who thought he could do better than the current big players in the game were doing. Walmart was started out of disappointment for the way Kmart did things, Pappa Johns founded for the way Pizza Hut did things. So I'm all for people being disgruntled with the current situation to the point they're ready to take action. But creating a mob scene or going on strike isn't going to work in trucking. The industry is too fragmented. We need someone to start a company that pays their drivers so well and treats them so well that everyone will have to follow suit. Now we have to see who's ready to step up

Retired persons often wish to enhance their current income. Many even want to make a contribution back to their community. These seemingly opposing wishes can be reconciled through a Charitable Gift Annuity, a form of planned giving. A charitable gift annuity involves a contribution of assets to a non-profit organization in exchange for fixed income payments under the terms of an annuity contract. Let's examine how the annuity works. First, how is the income amount determined? The fixed income is calculated using a fixed annuity rate (percentage) multiplied by the initial contribution. The rate (percentage) depends on the age of the person, or persons (if a couple), receiving the payments, and on the payment start date. The American Council on Gift Annuities publishes rate tables (available on-line) that many non-profits follow. These rates ensure that the charity keeps approximately 50% of the value of what was contributed to purchase the charitable gift annuity. For example, using the current tables, a person age 70 years, seeking an immediate gift annuity for his lifetime only could expect to receive an annual return (annuity) of 5.7 percent on the value of his initial one time contribution. If he contributes $100,000, then he will receive $5,700 each year for the rest of his life. [Note: The rate would decrease slightly if he received monthly or quarterly payments.] Moreover, if a couple were to purchase a charitable gift annuity and receive payments over their combined life expectancy – so that the surviving spouse would continue to receive annuity payments –then the rate would reflect the couple's combined actuarial life expectancy. Second, what assets can be contributed to "purchase" the annuity? Often these annuities are purchased with cash. Sometimes a charity will accept stocks and bonds or a residence (or ranch) in exchange for the annuity. Third, what are the tax consequences to a charitable gift annuity? If cash is contributed, then the consequences are as follows: (1) an immediate tax deduction in the year of the gift for the so-called present value of the charitable remainder; which means the excess of the initial cash contribution over the present value over the lifetime annuity income stream; and (2) annual recognition of ordinary income on the annuity interest income. If appreciated stocks or bonds are contributed, then in addition to ordinary interest income each year, capital gains will incrementally be recognized each year over the term of the annuity. Gradual recognition of the capital gains is usually much better than immediate recognition. That recognition would occur if one were to sell the stock first, and then "purchase" the charitable gift annuity. Lastly, charitable gift annuities presume a significant charitable intent on the part of the donor. Persons charitably included who wish both to make an immediate gift while alive and increase their income, may be interested. If so, call the planned giving department of the intended non-profit organization and request literature; then evaluate this option with your financial planner. Editor's Note: Dennis A.
