"I got this." That's what I kept saying to myself when I faced a difficult situation. "I got this - I would handle it, & I would do it all by myself!" |
This talk is an eye-opening series of real-life examples when being able to see things from a different view makes all the difference. |
Michael Novak, writing for National Review, admits that he is taken aback by some of the harsh criticisms of Pope Francis coming from American conservatives. Novak—who for decades has been the leading Catholic defender of the free-enterprise system—offers his own gentle suggestions that the current Pontiff should recall the teachings of Blessed John Paul II, especially in Centesimus Annus. At the same time, Novak expresses delight with the overall thrust of Evangelii Gaudium, acknowledging that Americans can learn a great deal from our new Pontiff. |
The Financial Times provides some useful background on the struggle toward transparency at the Vatican bank-- a timely piece, in light of today’s news that European banking examiners have given a positive report on the Vatican’s financial reforms. |
And finally, immodestly, I point to my friend Robert Royal’s kind and insightful review of When Faith Goes Viral, a collection of reports on successful initiatives in evangelization, which I had the pleasure of editing. |

The article focuses on the results of a Texas AgriLife Research study on the possibility of feeding beef steers with processed co-products resulting in the production of biofuel from algae. It describes how the algal supplement was formulated and integrated into crude protein hay for daily feeding. It says that the algae co-product was successfully fed to Angus steers and will be tried on grazing cattles. |
The article discusses the study conducted by Texas AgriLife Research animal nutrition scientist Tryon Wickersham and graduate student Merritt Drewery which found that algae biofuel byproduct can be used as feed for steers. |
The article offers information on the top five beef winter feeding strategies for cattle producers in the U.S., which include minimizing feed waste, testing feedstuffs, and sorting cattle by need. |

KZPT, a producer of special helmet based in Poland, has chosen the transparent and heat-resistant polycarbonate (PC) Apec FR 1892 from Bayer MaterialScience for the visors of its fire helmets. |
As introduced, Apec FR 1892 includes a flame retardant (FR stands for flame retardant) with good heat resistance. It satisfies the European standard EN 443:2008, among others, which specifies particularly stringent requirements for the protective function of fire helmets. This standard stipulates that the visor must keep flames, heat and sparks away from the wearer’s face. |
Premium helmets, such as the KZPT Calisia Vulcan, are even equipped with two visors made of Apec FR 1892 to provide greater protection. The outer visor is coated with vaporized metal and reflects the heat more strongly than the simple variant. |
Bayer adds that the material’s good flow properties also allow for efficient processing. The finished visor features a smooth, glossy surface.KZPT uses the injection molding process at its site in Kalisz, Poland, to produce visors used primarily by firefighters in eastern European countries and the Middle East. |

If you want renovations and ready to go hard – bring into your life a perfect combination of platinum roots and pink (violet or purple) tips. Pink and blonde hair is a beautiful combination because these two colors complement each other. It does not matter what shades you use, they always look pretty together. Neon shades pop against any hair color. However, the pink appears even brighter when it’s set off with platinum blonde hair. It’s easy to be both fun and outstanding. |

I just fell in-love with this lifestyle photo over at Seaofshoes.com today. |
This is what I am trying for my daily uniforms to look like. Living in San Francisco, we are laid-back casual, we tend to wear stealth pieces for everyday and that means a great pair of jeans, great shoes etc, we don’t get all decked out without a reason and our core-being say’s it all. Grooming is essential and run-around chic is it. |
I’m with you! What a simple, chic look. |
Everything should be simple, and let your shoes, handbag and jewelry be your statement pieces…. |
Our lamps are available in five finishes: antique, shiny brass, matt brass, shiny nickel and matt nickel. |
Antique: is a result of a chemical treatment. |
Shiny brass: the lamp is polished. As the Patinas polished brass lamps are not varnished they will slightly darken in years (this depends on the humidity of the space - cca 5-10 years). |
Matt brass: elegant golden colour. |
Shiny nickel: the brass lamp is nickeled. Dust or fingerprints should be removed with a dry,soft cloth. |
Matt nickel: refined low-key silver colour. |
Our suggestion: take care of your lamps just as about any decorative object. |
Dust should be removed regularly with a dry, soft cotton cloth. For brass parts do NOT use any kind of detergent. |
Glasses and glass tubes can be cleaned with a glass cleaner. |
Money Making Step-By-Step Video & Audio Lessons Walks You Through The Process Of Creating CASH, Cash Flow, and Building Financial Security! |
The foundations of every market dictate that when some people lose, other people gain. The American economy today is a mix of winners and losers. There were those who failed to capitalize on the rising market and then witnessed most of the wealth they had accumulated disappear when the real estate market crashed, causing the stock market to crash and wiping out the life savings of millions. |
On the other hand, those who sold ‘out at or near the top, and those who “shorted” the stock market are now poised to buy back in at mere fractions of the dollar, thereby building even greater fortunes than during the boom years. |
Does that mean that all those who don’t have the cash to re-enter the market are going to wind up having to painstakingly rebuild their lost financial security over the coming years? Not necessarily! |
I was born during the Great Depression and have seen a half dozen economic downturns over half a century of investing in single family houses. I lost money in most of them because I didn’t know how to exploit them. Once I’d learned the tricks of the trade, I made a fortune thirty years ago when Florida’s recession was at it’s height. The trick was learning ways to create cash and equity without the use of any of my money. |
There are no hidden secrets to doing this. It hinges on your desire to succeed. If you truly want to rise to the top of the heap, you have to learn how to take advantage of the current distressed housing market. |
Some of these techniques involve the use of Contingent Contracts and Options to control property until an end-user or investor can be found to buy a property at mere fractions of its original cost. Some involve being able to create debt instruments that can be used to buy and sell property. |
Still others involve the design and creation of real estate Notes that can be readily sold for cash to institutional and private investors. Ultimately, you should be buying as many deeply discounted cash flow houses as possible before the market rebounds. You can do this without cash if you learn and use some of the techniques I and others can teach you. |
Now, for the first time, I created a new seminar I call “MONEY MATTERS – Making Money Without Money” to help you learn these techniques. It will show you how to use them to recoup and surpass the financial security you may have lost. |
The seminar SOLD OUT both times it was taught! |
Learn the techniques and strategies you need to get through this recession with more wealth, cash flow, and money than before. |
Take a took at the Money Matters Recorded Seminar outline below and see if you don’t agree that there are some new strategies you can learn in this online seminar to help you take advantage of today’s tremendous real estate opportunities. |
In today’s economy, by using these techniques, you can rebuild your nest egg in far less time than it took to originally accumulate it; but you don’t want to delay. The current economic situation is changing daily. Once you let today’s opportunities pass you by, you may have to wait a generation for a chance to make as much money without money with your own talents and skill. |
Even if you attended the fast-paced Money Matters LIVE seminar, this Recorded Seminar will help you learn the concepts Jack taught. You can pause and rewind the audio and videos as many times as you need to to acquire a full and complete understanding of these important concepts, techniques and strategies. |
You don’t want to miss this cutting edge information about how to make money without money. Watch or Listen to Money Matters today so you can learn how to make money with the tremendous opportunities available for you right now. |
Just like missed opportunity, when it’s gone it’s gone! |

There are so many great benefits to buying solar lighting over alternative lighting or ventilation products, perhaps that question should read: Why NOT solar? Read on and discover how ‘the game has changed’. |
In the last two decades prices have dropped dramatically on solar cells due to high demand, making them less expensive than similar systems. |
Solar panel technology has increased with greater lifecycles, more efficient charging, and better design. |
These improvements have allowed us to reduce the size yet keep the efficiency of the solar panels. Three times the power from half the size. |
SMD – or “Surface-Mount Device” technology – has been in common use for regular electronic components since the early 1980s. |
Yet strangely very few lighting companies have dared mount LEDs directly to a circuit board. We’ve realised the benefits of doing so, with great effect. |
By mounting the LED chips directly to the circuit board, they’re physically supported by the strength of the board. |
This means that as they heat up and cool down, they’re not going to warp and crack. |
As a direct result, our products will comfortably give a lifespan of 20,000 to 100,000 hours – an order of magnitude beyond our competitors’ products which use discrete LEDs. |
Heat generated by the LED chips is transferred to the much larger, more robust circuit board, rather than having to be dealt with by the LED itself. |
This ensures that the LEDs can be run brighter and for longer periods without thermal stress destroying them in the process. |
Traditional LEDs send most of their light straight ahead; owing to the construction of normal LED housings, the dispersion angles are generally in the region of 45 to 60 degrees. |
Surface-mounted LEDs aren’t constrained by these traditional housings, so can achieve a dispersion angle of up to 160 degrees. The result is more even lighting in all directions, without the “spottiness” most people associate with LED lighting. |
Older Nickel-Cadmium (NiCd) technology batteries are far cheaper to produce but are plagued by the dreaded “memory effect” (if they’re not completely depleted, they can’t completely charge). |
They also take more than twice as long to fully charge and have a markedly lower energy capacity. |
Most of the lights we sell have voltage sensing technology built into the circuit board. |
This senses when an electrical charge is coming from the solar panel and automatically switches the light on at dusk and off at dawn. |
The result is your lights will always be on when you need them, without you having to manually switch them on and off. |
Modern intelligent circuitry can tell the difference between the sun setting and dark clouds forming overhead. |
So unlike some other products, our lights won’t be switching on and off randomly during the day just because a cloud, ‘plane or bird passed overhead. |
As long as the UV light reaches the solar panel, the lights will charge, and when there is no charge the lights can be turned ON Automatically. |
You’ll never get an electrical bill! |
‘Taken’. I can watch most things with Liam Neeson in (and listen to as well- he did a great cover of the Van Morrison ‘Coney Island’ a few years back). This is a superior action movie and a revenge movie (revenge movies are a growing genre; maybe because we have no visible enemy to fight, only an undercover one. Maybe, as we have no god and therefore no Grace, and shopping doesn’t really fire the blood long term, we just love revenge bloodlust…just a hunch…). |
Surveys of this studio audience (one who loves action, violence and mythical beasts in a film: preferably all 3 at once and one who dislikes all 3, instead prefering character development and emotional engagement) produced an almost 100% positive vote. One to watch after a frustrating PCC/church council. |
Flight of the Conchords. Anything made by HBO and getting a screening on BBC3/BBC4 has got to be good. Comedy on TV can tend to the lame and bland or ultra shocking…but just. Not. Funny. |
I am just watching the 2nd series (which is not supposed to be as good as the first) and I am laughing out loud lots and lots. I may get this DVD from my family as a present; seems like the kind of comedy that can be watched and watched and watched- and watched some more. So clever and so funny; I think the best comedy is recognizably this world yet at the same time inhabits its own universe. |
Don’t despair- more deep stuff tomorrow. I just needed a break….occasionally my humanity breaks out. I will try to keep it in control in the future. Sorry. |

China’s ruling Communist Party held the Third Plenary Session of the 18th Central Committee from 9 to 12 November 2013 in Beijing. "Third Plenums have been the launch-pad for many of China's major reforms. Now, with the leadership suggesting that a 'master plan' will be unveiled in November, expectations are understandably high,” wrote Capital Economics' Mark Williams and Julian Evans-Pritchard in a note to clients. |
Thirty-five years ago, China launched its reform after the Third Plenary Session of the 11th Central Committee of the Communist Party of China (CPC) was held. Examining the seven communiques published since 1978, villages and agriculture, market economy, reform and development were the most frequently used words, which present the development footprint since China carried out the reform and opening-up policy in 1978.

Many of the people in the world today usually want to look for good investments that can help them to protect their wealth and therefore, it’s an important decision to them. Investing is definitely one of the biggest platforms that many people enjoy because it is the possibility of bringing in more money. The luxury real estate industry has continued to grow over the years because many people are realizing that this is one of the best investment opportunities.One thing that you can be very sure of is that for you to invest in this kind of investment, you have to get a lot of capital and therefore, it’s not the simple kinds of investments. For the sake of the amount of money that you’re ready to spend, it would be important to have a financial plan so that you do not waste the opportunity.One good thing about luxury real estate is that the same as the capital is very huge, the returns are always very huge also. One thing that you can be very sure of is that the luxury real estate industry is usually great for you especially because it’s able to help you to gain quite a lot and very few investments can reach this level. This be one of the best investment opportunities, can be good for you because of the following benefits. |
After buying properties that are in the luxury real estate industry or building your own properties, you’ll start getting rental income because this is one of the ways that you can build yourself. Most of the time, many people usually prefer renting out the luxury real estate properties because they have much more income as compared to selling also, selling is also the other option. At the same time, it’ll be good for you because it would be possible for you to continue growing yourself as a business because you can put the property as collateral so that you can get more financing. This means that once you are in the real estate industry and you have one of the properties, it would be possible for you to continuously grow and that’s another advantage that many people look at us an opportunity. |
Most of the governments in the world usually give tax deductions when it comes to luxury real estate investments and this another benefit. Given as incentives, these tax deductions are going to help you to continue building and to continue protecting your wealth in addition to increasing it as you continue to get more income.Another great benefit about real estate investment into the luxury buildings is that it’s an industry on its own and therefore, you can take it even as your new job. |
Before I can travel the world tomorrow with a free mind, I had to organize a lot of things at home… In this post I want to share with you what you need to know before you leave your city for good. |
After I decided to travel on my own, I had to check my bank account. How much money is there? Then I had to make a choice of how I would like to travel. As I prefer to meet local people, I am very happy to use couchsurfing.com or work in little projects to get accommodation or food for free. Therefore, I decided I will need about 40,00 Euros per day including everything (accommodation, food, transportation, activities, etc.). In case you prefer to stay in a hotel or you want to eat in every nice restaurant, you should easily consider about 80,00 Euros per day. After that decision, it is just mathematics for how long you could travel. Of course you should always have some “emergency money” in case something unexpected happens and it costs more than you thought. |
I hope I can travel about 6 months. Afterwards I had to decide where I want to go and book flights. As I want to travel independent, I decided to book just a one-way ticket to Bali, Indonesia with no flight back. First of all, because I don’t know for sure when and second of all because I don’t know yet from which country I am flying back to Germany. |
The next step was to find out if I need to apply for a visa for Indonesia. As a German, I don’t need to apply for a visa in advance but in order to get a “Visa free visit” for 30 days in Indonesia, I already need a flight out of the country. So I searched for the cheapest flights out of Bali and surrounding via Skyscanner.com and found the flight from Lombok, an island next to Bali, to Kuala Lumpur in Malaysia for 80,00 Euros. |
Thank god, I already had a valid passport so I didn’t have to get a new one (with the Berlin citizen center, it would have been a big problem to get a valid one on time…). In case you don’t have a valid one, you have to apply for a new passport! The same for your driver’s license! |
Afterwards I was thinking about accommodation in Bali and what I want to do there. I used my Facebook network and asked people for advices where to stay and great places to go surfing, do yoga or meditate in Bali. I got a great response. |
However, I decided to use couchsurfing.com and stay with local people instead of concentrating on doing activities I could do nearly everywhere in the world. I was lucky enough and got the first ten nights covered by three different local couchsurfers from Bali. I am already very excited to meet them in person! |
