Being able to relax during medical treatments makes treatments more effective, as well as making better patients. Diane Brown is working to add a little art and light to a scary place: hospitals.
“While hospitals have become more physically welcoming in recent years, with new buildings designed by famous architects and lobbies filled with art, those changes rarely find their way to some of the hospital’s most difficult spaces — the rooms filled with machinery where treatment actually happens.
Diane Brown is trying to change that. She’s the founder of Rx Art, a nonprofit group dedicated to bringing art into the examination room and giving patients a way to escape their bodies’ sickness through their minds’ imagination.”

(Updated 13 April 2023)
Yesterday (12 April), I broadcast a message that the video embedded in this article had been taken down. Yes, it had been, but to be clear, it was reinstated by the video's producer on a video hosting platform called Rumble, which is resisting censorship. The record of this censorship is found here: https://www.silenced.co.nz/
Please help us resist censorship by forwarding this article and the video as widely as possible. Thank you!
The documentary Silenced released today reveals how streams of subtle censorship running through New Zealand’s COVID-19 response skewed the story relayed to the public by the media, the medical establishment and academia.
Shot with the sandy background of a striking west coast landscape, Silenced was written, directed and produced by Samantha Blanchard of Candlelight Productions NZ. The documentary gently delivers a compelling story focussed on freedom of speech, without straying into the polarising debate of pro or anti-vax.
“The disparity of information and the demonisation of people who upheld freedom of choice over the last few years has totally changed New Zealand society” said Blanchard. “Like many others, plenty of my personal relationships have been seriously impacted during that time. Silenced is my response to this and was born out of necessity. It’s mainly for those that have been alienated from one another. I hope it helps their relationships to heal.”
The three interviewees in Silenced reveal shocking stories about the nature of COVID-19 related censorship, suggesting many of their colleagues’ experienced similar treatment during the last three years: * Well-known broadcaster Peter Williams walked from his job suddenly in 2021, unable to freely explore expert opinions about the vaccine rollout while satisfying the commercial interests of his employer, Mediaworks. Williams reflects on his concerns about the state of democracy in New Zealand with freedom of speech undermined by advertising and grant money provided by the Government to the news media. * Sociologist Jodie Bruning speaks from her own research about the problematic, economically-driven funding environment for science and research in New Zealand, which hinders the ability of experts to speak out of step with a Government narrative. Bruning vindicates the research of a New Zealand epidemiologist who was silenced after vaccine mandates began, and highlights the importance of open debate and holding space for uncomfortable science. * De-registered GP Dr Anne O’Reilly recounts her story of asking burning questions as she advocated for her patients, only to be denied answers by our health authorities and suspended from her profession after 40 years of service – an action normally reserved for serious fraud or manslaughter. Dr O’Reilly also speaks to the heavy censorship of highly-qualified international experts who pioneered successful treatments for COVID-19 well before a vaccine was rolled out. In Silenced, Bruning and Dr O’Reilly also explore the toothless nature of the Royal Commission of Inquiry into Covid-19 Lessons. “Many critical matters have been left outside the scope of the enquiry, ensuring many burning questions will remain unanswered - even with the benefit of hindsight.”
“Big budget documentaries made with Government grants and ready-to-go platforms, have portrayed people asking questions of it as deluded and dangerous” said Blanchard. The perspectives portrayed in Silenced balance those in government-funded documentaries ‘Fire and Fury’ and ‘Web of Chaos’, for example. Silenced is essential viewing for anyone that’s formed an opinion based on those documentaries. If mainstream journalism were fair and balanced, Silenced would not exist. “My burning question is: why do we need to balance the assertions made by our mainstream media when it’s their responsibility to provide balance in the first place?” “I hope people who’ve seen through the lies already will be willing to share Silenced with loved-ones who have not. It’s not my intention to destabilise or incite any anger or violence against our authorities, but merely to encourage them towards the transparency and accountability the public expects of them.”

Some very brief notes on John Urry’s Paper “Mobility, Space and Social Equality” for upcoming masterclass at UWS next week (over the fold).
Mobility, Space and Social Equality
Critically explores mobility. From organised to disorganized capitalism. â€œMultiple mobilities become central to the structuring of inequality within contemporary disorganized societies.â€ (3)
Citizenship and inequality
Classic notion of citizenship for conventional national framing of social stratification [I am interested in stratifications and organisation at other levels, these may involve â€˜banal nationalismâ€™ but not belong to the â€˜nationalâ€™ as such] (4)
Defined in terms of shared risks (contingencies) across a territory. [From risks to entrepreneurial appreciation of contingency? Australia at least the privileged figure within neo-liberal capitalism is not worker but the entrepreneurial â€˜small business ownerâ€™ + worker as fluro-collar ] State has responsibility for producing stable conditions â€“ through attribution of rights and duties. (5)
Global complexity hollowing out of this national social domain through organising power over life-chances and life-styles of its â€˜membersâ€™. Citizenships of flow (6) Post-national citizenship? (7)
Citizenship through mobility lens. (7) Problematic, unequal distribution of access to transport, poverty of access (7-8).
Four components of the notion of â€˜accessâ€™: economic, physical, organisational, and temporal: Economic resources, physical integrity of access, capacity for organisation, frequency and distribution of availability. (9-10)
Simply increasing access is problematic (10). Relation between mobilities, not just an absolute value of mobility. May be â€˜blocked desiresâ€™. Social impact of contingent events. [Negri, time from below and time from above?] Difference between access to formal social institutions and enabling access to informal sites of sociality. (11)
â€œWhere nodes in such networks are located at geographical distance from where people live or work, access involves communications and intermittent travel. Hence social inclusion is a matter of overcoming constraints of space at particular moments of time so as to gain access to the informal networks of work, leisure, friendship and family. There is an unavoidable â€˜burden of mobilityâ€™ in order to sustain social networks (Shove 2002).â€ (11)
Reconceived through analysis of types of capital that Bourdieu sets out. (12)
Mobilities not new. Restrictive, happens within a â€˜mobility complexâ€™ (13).
Contemporary capitalism presupposes expressive bodies (14).
â€œCapitalism involves power as a mobile entity and able to constantly produce the new and then to take advantage of it.â€ (14) [the â€˜newâ€™ produced by or â€˜realisedâ€™ through mobile bodies? Novelty not through labour of transformation but displacement? below]
Social relations consequence of new mobilities. Marx social relations of capitalist production and not only upon forces of production (14)
Real relations: Social relations of capital and labour-power, also generate fetishism of commodities (15-16). Proliferation of mobilities is not in itself so significant as the novel social relations produced. Fetishism of movement parallels Marxâ€™s critique of the fetishism of commodities. (16)
â€œâ€˜social relations of circulationâ€™ or network capital that is key. Network capital is the capacity to engender and sustain social relations with those people who are not necessarily proximate and which generates emotional, financial and practical benefit.â€ (16)
Network capital comprises of 8 elements (17-18)
Links to Putnamâ€™s social capital (19), however, local cultures not sedentary, creative class may not want close-knit relations, even so trust and reciprocity not only contained within â€œpropinquitous communitiesâ€ (20)
â€˜exitâ€™ as act of power (21). Many examples of such â€˜exitabilityâ€™.
Movement leaves information traces (22)

Despite its name, being single is one of those things that’s really only fun in numbers. Surrounded by your crew of independent ladies, you can find comfort in your dedicated friendships and love in the sisterhood. If you’re going to be lonely, at least you’ll be lonely together. But then the worst happens: they meet someone. While it can get a little depressing to realize that you’re the only one riding solo in your group of friends, there is a way to use it your advantage. You can make the most of the situation — but only if you choose to. Here’s how:
Stop focusing on your status.
There’s no need to make your lonely heart your only identifier. If you’re feeling like all you can think about is how you don’t have anyone to spoon with, then you need to get some new things to think about. Maybe it’s time to change up your career, start that new business or finally visit Thailand. Find something — literally anything — to take your mind off of your singlehood and onto something a little more productive.
And stop talking about it.
Nobody, and I mean NOBODY, wants to hang around the girl who can’t stop whining about being alone. It’s okay to vent, but if all your conversations start with a sob story about the Tinder guy who stood you up or how you saw your ex-boyfriend’s college roommate and you wonder if that’s a sign, then you really just need to shut up for awhile. The more you talk negatively about being single, the more you’ll hate it. So start looking at your independence from a better point of view and soon you’ll realize you don’t have to talk about it at all.
Evaluate your friendships.
This seems slightly bitchy, but we all have those girlfriends who only make time for us when they’re single. It’s like the moment they get into to a relationship, they go MIA. Never to be heard from again. So if you’re feeling lonely, it could just be because you got close with a bunch of girls who are only available when they’re totally available. So wish them luck and stop reaching out, because those aren’t the kind of friends you want anyway.
Get new friends.
Even if your now coupled besties are angels who would never ghost you, their time for friends has now significantly decreased. Plus, they’re now a lot less likely to want to go out and meet new people. Don’t let that hold you back. It’s perfectly okay for you to find new single girls to hang out with and you shouldn’t feel guilty about it. Your bestie would much rather have chill wine night then hit up a foam party anyway.
Make friends with their boyfriends.
I know in some ways, he’s the enemy. He’s the reason she’s not constantly coming over your house and going on late-night runs to Taco Bell. But if you’re nice and open to being friends with him, it will make seeing your friends so much easier. And you won’t feel like a third wheel if you’re friends with both parties. It’s just science.
Make friends with their boyfriend’s friends.
The great thing about dudes is that they tend to travel in packs. And chances are, your friend’s new boyfriend probably has some fun single guys you can all hang out with. So rather than cry about your shrinking squad, look at it as a way to make it bigger.
Don’t make the goal to hurry up and get a boyfriend.
Just because your girls are taken, doesn’t mean you have to be taken too. Don’t make the mistake of rushing into a relationship or settling for someone you re not totally into just so you guys can double date. And more than likely, you’re the only one putting that kind of pressure on yourself.
Don’t let them pressure you into getting a boyfriend.
First of all, good friends do not do this. But if you’re finding yourself constantly being bombarded with questions about your love life, politely direct the conversation somewhere else. Or impolitely tell them to eff off. Some girls can’t take the hint.
Let the chapter close.
Sure, that brief summer where you were all unattached and hanging 24/7 was great, but all good things come to an end. Just because it feels like everyone is taking off in the direction of romance, doesn’t mean your path is headed the wrong way. Your next chapter is what you make it, but you won’t be able to enjoy what’s coming if you keep holding on to what was.
Remember that there’s so much more to life than meeting a guy.
Meeting a guy is great, and there’s nothing wrong with wanting it to happen. But you can’t control the time, place or color of his hair. All you can do is trust that one day it’s coming and enjoy your life for all the wonderful things it can be until then.

|ICC Men’s T20 World Cup Team 2, Perth|
|Zimbabwe 130-8 (20 overs): Williams 31; M Wasim 4-24|
|Pakistan 129-8 (20 overs): Shan 44; Race 3-25|
|Zimbabwe won by one run|
Pakistan’s World Cup hopes suffered further damage with Zimbabwe’s one-run defeat in Perth.
An inspired performance by Zimbabwe’s bowlers saw Pakistan finish on 129-8 to win by 131 runs.
Shan Masood looked set to get Pakistan out of trouble before he was stumped against spinner Sikandar Raza on 44, who took 3-25.
It was Zimbabwe’s first win outside the first round of the Men’s T20 World Cup.
Needing three off the last ball to win, Shaheen Afridi managed just a single and was run out trying to come back for a second run that would have secured the equaliser.
Pakistan are winless after two matches, Even the first outing against India ending in a tense defeat.
The result takes Zimbabwe third behind India and South Africa in Group Two, while Pakistan fifth.
After winning the toss and electing to bat first, Zimbabwe struggled against the fiery Pakistan bowling, with Sean Williams’ only individual score of 31 from 20 overs.
Mohammad Wasim took 4-24 and leg-spinner Shadab Khan took 3-23.
But Pakistan lost openers Babar Azam and Mohammad Rizwan early and slipped to 36-3 before rebuilding from behind with a 52-run partnership between Shan and Shadab.
But when Shadab and Haider fell in consecutive balls from Ali Raza, the momentum shifted to Zimbabwe.
In a chaotic end, bowlers Blessing Muzarabani and Richard Ngarava bowled with great discipline at the death, Mohammad Nawaz’s six and four pulling back the equation in Pakistan’s favour.
But Brad Evans responded by catching Nawaz at mid-on off the penultimate ball to end Pakistan’s hopes.

Columbia St. Capital One slated for closure | Drive-up, Austin Street branch to remain in service
Published 10:25 pm Tuesday, July 24, 2012
Local Capital One customers recently learned, through a letter from the company dated July 2, that the branch located at 346 Columbia St. in Bogalusa will be closing its doors Oct. 5.
The closure, bank spokesman Steven Thorpe said, will not have an affect on customer accounts.
“They will continue to enjoy the same service and convenience they’ve come to expect,” he said, adding that the bank will continue to operate the drive-up at the Columbia Street branch, as well as the Northside branch located at 400 Austin St.
Bogalusa Main Street Manager Robin Day said she is sorry to hear the bank will be moving out of its downtown location. However, she said she will maintain a positive attitude about the situation and continue to work on “making Columbia Street better.”
“We don’t need another empty building, but it is what it is,” she said. “And we’re just going to have to move forward, pick up the pieces and do the best that we can.”
Day said she found out about the planned branch closure just as she was stepping into her new position. Though the news came as a shock, she said she received support from Human Resources Director Sandy Bloom and Mayor Charles Mizell.
“Sandy Bloom and the mayor, being the cheerleaders for downtown that they are, were quick to say, ‘We can overcome this. We can take this as a positive. Let’s not be negative about it, and let’s just think of the future for Columbia Street and work with Capital One and get a solution and not create a problem,’” she said. “So that’s what we’re doing, looking for a solution and not looking at it as a problem.”
While the exact details have yet to be worked out, Day said she wants to see another business fill the space that will be vacated by Capital One.
“There’s no specific plan at this time,” she said. “We’re wide open to work with them and do whatever we need to get done.”
In early June, the bank notified the seven associates in that office that the branch would be closed in early October, Thorpe said.
“Our goal in notifying affected associates well in advance is to give them ample opportunity to post for other jobs within Capital One, including other branches in the region, or prepare to seek other employment,” he said.
Capital One regularly reviews its business operations “to ensure we are operating as efficiently as possible, while continuing to provide high quality products and service to our customers,” and “that staff structure is aligned to meet the needs of the business,” Thorpe said. It was during the course of that review that the decision was made to close the Columbia Street branch.
“This is a difficult decision and one that Capital One leaders do not take lightly, but the changes will not impact customer accounts or service in any way,” he said.


“Bernanke is a superior student of history, and not only has he learned those lessons well, he also formulates plans based on what history has taught.” – Don Hays
Nashville, TN (PRWEB) September 20, 2011
With the FOMC meeting beginning this morning, Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke is taking a lot of heat from the public; however, Don Hays, founder and chairman of Hays Advisory, believes that he is the right man to get the US economy back on track. Hays recently stated, “Bernanke is a superior student of history, and not only has he learned those lessons well, he also formulates plans based on what history has taught.”
Hays believes that during the Fed’s two day meeting, Chairman Bernanke and his team will flesh out all of the possible solutions for stimulating the ailing US economy in the short-term, while retaining their long-term perspective on the economic recovery. According to many analysts, one potential outcome of this week’s meeting is that the Fed may attempt to push down long-term interest rates, which would likely have an impact on mortgage rates causing them to move lower.
This prospect excites Hays, since for some time now he has been a strong advocate for focusing any further stimulus towards the housing sector as its weakness is the largest factor holding back US economic growth. In a recent interview with Matt Nesto of Yahoo! Finance, Hays stated, “Housing and autos are typically the areas of the economy that lead US recoveries.” Yet, this time around, the housing sector has recovered very slowly.
While Hays also suggested in his interview that stimulus for the housing sector was more likely to come from Congress, he is pleased with the idea that the weakest link of the economy may be positively affected by any actions the Fed may take to stimulate the economy. At this point, all eyes are on the Federal Reserve as investors and the public await Wednesday’s announcement following the conclusion of the FOMC meeting.

Exclusive: China's chief stock regulator has offered to resign - sources
By Benjamin Kang Lim and Kevin Yao
BEIJING (Reuters) - The embattled head of China's securities regulator, Xiao Gang, widely blamed by investors for mishandling a recent crisis that wiped over $5 trillion off the value of the Shanghai and Shenzhen stock markets, has offered to resign, sources said.
The China Securities Regulatory Commission (CSRC) denied Xiao had offered to resign. "This information does not conform to the facts," it said via Weibo, a popular microblogging site.
Xiao, 57, tendered his resignation as CSRC chairman last week after his brainchild - a "circuit breaker" mechanism to limit market losses - was blamed for exacerbating a sharp sell-off, a source with ties to the leadership and a financial industry source told Reuters. The "circuit breaker" was deactivated on Jan. 7, just three days after its introduction.
"The (Communist Party) central (leadership) is extremely unhappy with Xiao Gang. It is certain he will change jobs," the source close to the leadership said.
"Xiao Gang handed in his resignation last week," said the financial industry source. Both sources requested anonymity because they were not authorized to speak to the media.
It was not known if Xiao's resignation offer had been accepted by the central government. His term does not formally expire until end-2018.

Creating and Sustaining State and Local Evaluation Capacities.
Kirchner, Robert A.
Assessment and evaluation can be important tools in improving the effectiveness and quality of programs, especially criminal justice programs, if they are integrated into the plans and designs of strategies instead of being added later. An evaluation systems approach to program development is needed to ensure that effectiveness and efficiency are maintained and that progress on program objectives is communicated to policy makers, managers, and the public. There are four criteria that define an effectively managed program: (1) acceptable description of goals and objectives; (2) linkage between program activities and objectives; (3) performance information; and (4) acceptable performance. An analytical model is suggested that demonstrates the linear progress of evaluation and performance data from program goals to specific activities, through performance measurement, to analysis and interpretation of the results and necessary corrective actions. Evaluation is an important program development tool, not an isolated event that can be performed once and then forgotten. Three appendixes contain charts about evaluation systems and models. (SLD)

For those of us who love a good piece of wall art, the limited wall space is a decided disadvantage. Like this oversized woven “portrait” made out of recycled materials. Amazing.
You can definitely make a strong impression right from the start with marble flooring on the entryway. However, you should know this is not exactly a practical idea since marble gets stained easily and needs constant maintenance.
Depending on the type of marble, its color and veining, you might want to either opt for large floor tiles or for smaller ones that together form a mosaic with a unique pattern. Large tiles are best for showcasing soft and uniform marble veins and patterns.

You can choose any live casino, as long as you have access to a stable Internet connection. The live dealer games are available around the clock, as studios and dealers operate shifts. There are a variety of games available, and you can choose betting limits that fit your bankroll. You can also chat with other players and interact with the dealers. Live dealer games are becoming increasingly popular. These games offer the same thrill of playing in a brick-and-mortar casino.
To ensure the safety of your gambling, choose an online casino with a reputation for quality and fair play. Make sure that the casino has a license and follows local laws. The presence of a live casino will indicate an excellent online casino that is well-known for the quality of their games. Only serious online casinos invest in live casino software and a production studio. Building a live casino can be a costly affair, and a reliable online casino should never take shortcuts.
The live casino software that powers these games is developed by leading gaming companies. Most live casinos feature a dealer with mic’d-up speakers, and players type their messages into a chat box. The messages are displayed on a monitor in the dealer’s line of sight. Live casinos also provide real-time chat functionality. This makes the live casino experience even more realistic and interactive. You can even talk to the dealer and make a bet with his or her voice.
In addition to talking with the dealer, live casinos also offer immersive games with varying camera angles. Blackjack is perhaps the most popular of casino games, but there are many other options as well. Blackjack, roulette, and Texas Holdem all offer state-of-the-art gameplay and mechanics. Dream Catcher is a high-speed Wheel of Fortune-style game where players can interact with other players. When choosing a live casino, consider the options and play around.
There are many advantages to live casino software. Live casino software providers can stream games from various locations in the world. Some have studios in the Philippines, Latvia, Spain, Malta, and Ireland. Live casino software developers can provide two types of options to online casinos: licensing games ‘as-is’, or renting tables in a live-stream studio. Either option, however, makes the live casino experience more personalized. You can choose which settings appeal to your preferences and budget.
The biggest difference between a live casino and an online casino is the presence of a live dealer. While online casinos utilize a random number generator to make game outcomes, live dealers have more interaction with players. Since they pay attention to the needs of players, live dealers can help you try out new strategies. Live dealers can also provide statistics to help you make informed decisions. For example, live blackjack games include a live chat with the dealer. A live casino should have a live dealer with the knowledge and experience to give you the best gaming experience.
One of the biggest benefits of live casino software is the convenience it offers. You can play at any time of the day or night, and you’ll feel the same excitement that you would at an actual casino. And you can interact with the croupier and other players while playing. It’s as close as being at the casino! So, if you’re looking for a way to enjoy the thrill of playing casino games without ever leaving the comfort of your home, live casino software is for you!
In the future, there will also be many more live casino games, which means that players will be able to experience even more realism than before. Virtual reality headsets are one of the most promising technologies for the next few years. They can be connected to an electronic device to transfer images. These headsets provide a more immersive experience than ever before, allowing players to immerse themselves in the atmosphere of a real casino. With a live dealer, you can hear the sounds and see the table, which will increase the feeling of presence.
A live dealer game is one of the biggest advantages of live casino software. Because there is a live dealer on the other side, there’s a human element to the game, rather than a computerized random number generator. Live games also take the action factor of live gambling to a whole new level. While live online games can’t match the full sense experience of a brick-and-mortar casino, they’re a close second.

Oil CFDs are one of the most popular methods of speculating on oil prices. Contracts for difference are derivative products that allow you to trade on the price movements of the underlying asset, without buying the crude oil outright at its spot price. With CFD trading, you agree to exchange the difference in value between the time that a position is opened and closed. Given the volatility of the oil market within recent years, this can lead to either profit or loss. At XTB, Oil CFDs are based on futures contracts listed on the exchanges, which expire each month.
These are standardized instruments for WTI and Brent; the standard contract is for 1,000 barrels of oil, so a $1 movement in price is equal to $1,000 in contract value. If the price ticks down to $58.25, you would lose the same amount of money, $2,250, which is 24% more than you originally traded. There is an abundance of long-term and short-term strategies that can be used when trading oil CFDs. The value of shares and ETFs bought through a share dealing account can fall as well as rise, which could mean getting back less than you originally put in. Plus500SG Pte Ltd holds a capital markets services license from the Monetary Authority of Singapore for dealing in capital markets products (License No. CMS100648).
The world is actively seeking to move away from overdependence on fossil fuels as a primary source of energy. Cars, in particular, are becoming more and more fuel efficient, while electric cars are also picking up in terms of popularity. If this trend continues aggressively, oil prices will be pressured lower due to decreased demand. In addition to CFDs, there are also several ETFs that allow investors to gain exposure to the oil market.
Get tight spreads, no hidden fees and access to 12,000 instruments. Calculate your hypothetical P&L if you had opened a CFD trade on a certain date and closed on a different date . We provide multilingual customer support available for your every need. Please consider the information in light of your objectives, financial situation and needs.
Stay up-to-date with the latest market news and watch the US crude oil spot price live at Capital.com. Check for upcoming economic events that have an effect on oil prices, such as the US weekly petroleum status report and OPEC meetings. Forex and CFDs are leveraged products and can result in losses that exceed your deposits.
Other options for investing in Oil with XTB
With regard to the price of US crude oil, the commodity has witnessed a lot of volatility throughout its history, hitting some dramatic peaks and bottoms. AvaTrade has numerous handy resources that can help investors get the most out of their trading activities. For instance, you will get access to Trading Central, AvaSocial and Guardian Angel add-ons to maximise your trading potential.
This time the price of oil fell, and when you reviewed your trade you decided that the reasons that you entered it in the first place were wrong, and it was necessary to exit and cut your losses. The below charts show you the Brent and WTI crude oil spot prices, both live and historical. To find out more, visit our guide on Brent and WTI crude oil prices. There are several differences between WTI and Brent crude oil that are important to consider when choosing your commodity to trade. Brent is sourced from the North Sea and has more prevalence internationally, whereas WTI can only be sourced from oil fields inland of Texas and Louisiana, for example.
A Must-ReadeBook for Traders
In the case of the oil market, it is extremely important to track the publication of important reports that may increase market volatility. Oil CFDs, which are available at XTB, provide additional opportunities to spot new interesting investment opportunities both when the price of this commodity increases, as well as when it falls. The situation on the financial markets will be linked to the oil market for a long time.
As you did not hold the position overnight, there is no interest charge, so your net profit is $1125. This is the example of leverage that you can enjoy when trading CFDs. The return on your capital invested is over 95% when the price of crude oil increased only 3%. In general, the US crude oil rate significantly relies on the wider performance of the US economy. In addition, as with any other traded commodity, its value depends on the basic laws of supply and demand. For example, when supplies are tight, you can expect the price of oil to rise.
As with all derivatives, oil CFDs give you a substantial amount of leverage on your money, which means profits can be substantial, although losses can also mount up quickly. Many CFD brokers provide the facility to speculate on the price of oil futures contracts but contract sizes are typically much smaller than standard futures contracts. Contracts for difference can further be used to speculate on price movements in the oil market through a commodity futures contract. Futures trading is a contractual agreement between two parties to buy and sell an asset at a fixed price in the future. Whereas CFD trading is an over-the-counter product, futures are generally traded on a local exchange. Therefore, buying and selling oil futures is not specifically carried out through a CFD, although it gives the investor the chance to trade price movements of said future contracts.
Trade Oil with CFDs
This may be news about major oil companies, oil-producing regions as well as OPEC meetings. Because oil prices fluctuate wildly, a solid technical trading strategy should be in place to help pick out optimal trade entry points as well as price targets. Using technical analysis also helps identify key price levels that may offer good risk/reward opportunities. Oil is denominated in the US dollar in the international markets. Consequently, when the USD strengthens, oil prices tend to go down; and when the USD weakens, oil prices will usually trend higher. A truly globalised, 24-hour market, oil is highly sensitive and prices are constantly moving – making it an ideal instrument for day traders looking for fast movements.
Brent futures prices are generally higher than those of WTI, in line with their spot prices. This means that traders with knowledge in this field may find that their price movements are easier to predict. Read more about futures, also known as forward contracts, which are very similar products that we offer our clients.
Let’s say that after opening your position, the subsequent oil price increases to £55 per barrel and you decide to close the position. The difference between the opening and closing price stands at £5. In order to assess your profit or loss, you then multiply the difference by the size of the trade (£5 x 100). This means that there is a total profit of £500 from this position. Crude oil is the most commonly traded raw material in the world.
Trading oil CFD futures
This means that it is especially important that you use leverage responsibly and that you have appropriate stop loss orders in place when trading oil CFDs. A good rule of thumb is to trade, say, one CFD per $1,000 held on deposit in which case you would stand to make $1,000 on a $10 movement in the crude oil price. Speculations and trading sentimentTrading oil through futures contracts is considered a common form of trading.
Any number of approaches can be used, from breakout strategies in consolidating, sideways markets to trend following approaches when there is a clear direction to the market. Brent crude oil — comes from 15 oil fields located in the North Sea. The low sulfur content, which is below 0.37%, indicates that it is sweet oil, and its low density allows it to be described as light, ideally suited for the production of diesel oil and gasoline.
Crude oil is one of the most demanded commodities and prices have significantly increased in recent times. Two major benchmarks for pricing crude oil are the United States’ WTI and United Kingdom’s Brent. The differences between WTI and Brent include not only price but oil type as well, with WTI producing crude oil with a different density and sulfur content. The demand for crude oil is dependent on global economic conditions as well as market speculation. Although there have been discussions of replacing the USD with another trade currency for crude oil, no definitive actions have been taken. The most simple way to gain exposure to the energy market is through a CFD on the underlying commodity, such as crude oil, heating oil or gas oil.
Note also that within futures markets there are several expiration months quoted – for instance at the time of writing , September and December CFDs are available. The difference in prices between the various contracts is a reflection of the the cost of carry and other seasonal factors as it would for all commodities. In recent years, Brent crude oil is usually more affected by political, economic and geographical pressures and instability. Because this raw material is more widespread for traders across the world, in times of crisis, its price tends to fluctuate and there is often a surge in Brent oil prices. As WTI is less widespread, it does not feel the effect of international events and therefore keeps a lower price throughout the year.

Responding to Michael Sansolo's column yesterday about how falsely claiming to be "local" can hurt a brand, one MNB reader wrote:
There's a better word to use which is "community". Part of our mission statement is "contributing to the community we serve". I agree the word local has lost its roots. (Pun intended) It's much more about being community minded now in any case. Wegman's in the example provided in the column was clearly focused on helping and supporting their community. Community doesn't need a GPS.
Yesterday we noted that In the wake of the pro-unionization vote that took place at one of its New York city warehouses, the New York Post reported that Amazon is updating an "internal social media-style app used by Amazon employees" so that certain words are blocked and flagged.
Words like "union,” “living wage” and “plantation." Plus, “pay raise,” “prison,” “slave labor” and “restrooms." The Post writes that "additional banned words reportedly include 'freedom,' 'bullying,' 'harassment,' 'petition,' 'diversity,' 'concerned' and 'robots,' as well as slurs and swear words. Amazon managers would also be able to flag or suppress posts even if they don’t include banned words."
Amazon has signaled that it is likely to challenge the Staten Island vote, and I can understand that it is concerned about precedent. But I think Amazon's leadership has to be careful about the optics. It's anti-union rhetoric and actions will not be taking place in a vacuum … all of its customers are watching, and it is not beyond the realm of possibility that Amazon could do something that would damage its image.
One MNB reader responded:
I wasn't arguing Amazon's right to ban those words from its platform. I'm just asking whether it will be smart to do so … it isn't like the ban will make the words go away. There are, after all, other ways for people to communicate.
Amazon, as much as any company, ought to realize that.

“He just told me for the first time, ‘I love you!'” she gushed. “I gasped when he said it because I’m always saying I love you Cree! I love you, Cree! I’m not expecting to hear anything back, and he goes, ‘I love you.’ And I was like, ‘Aww!'”
It happened when she least expected it. “We were playing Angry Birds on my iPhone—because he loves that game first thing in the morning—I lean over to him, I give him a kiss on the cheek, and I say, ‘I love you, Cree,’ and he reciprocated and said, ‘I love you,'” she explains. “Then, of course I started bawling. I was just floored and my husband was looking at me like, ‘Oh my God, Tia.'”
The Instant Mom star also shared there was a part of motherhood that she was not prepared for. “No one ever told me about the guilt that you have as a working mother—and I wish someone had,” she said.
Mowry found a way to combat the guilt in looking at the bigger picture. “I want my child to grow up seeing that his mom works hard for what she gets. If I can instill that with my son, that ‘Mommy works hard, and things aren’t just given to her,’ then I’ve done a good thing.”

Scary movies don't scare me, but scary TV? That's a little different. Leave it to the powers that be to premiere two creepy, and sometimes, bloody shows in October. It's brilliant marketing with oh yeah Halloween just around the corner. Not only are these series chilling, but they are really good and really fascinating to watch.

The Global Financial Crisis-Policy Implications in Asia
2018/2019, Semester 2
Lee Kuan Yew School of Public Policy (Lee Kuan Yew School Of Public Policy)
Modular Credits: 4
This course takes a multi-disciplinary, practitioner-driven approach to analyse Singapore’s public policies. It does this by integrating and applying three conceptual lenses, namely standard economics, the cognitive sciences, and organisation behaviour. We will first examine policies in Singapore through the lens of market failures and how economists have traditionally viewed the role of governments. We then examine the cognitive limits of economic agents and consider how behavioural economics offers the possibility of better policy design by taking into account people’s cognitive biases and limitations. In the third segment, we analyse the Singapore government through the lens of organisation behaviour. Throughout the course, we apply these lenses to various policy successes and failures in Singapore.
Venue = IWP Meeting Room, Tower Block, Level 2
PP 5141: The Global Financial Crisis & Its Policy Implications in Asia
Academic Year 2018/19, Semester 2 Wednesday, 2pm – 5pm, Room TBC
Instructor: James Crabtree
Associate Professor of Practice, Lee Kuan Yew School of Public Policy Senior Fellow, Centre on Asia and Globalisation
Teaching assistant: TBC
Office hours: eSmail for an appointment
The global financial crisis of 2008 was not just an economic calamity.
also precipitated a crisis in ideas — and one that still shapes the most important economic
political choices that today face Asia and the world, from the rising populism and the challenge of inequality to the USSChina trade war.
The preScrash faith that free markets can produce optimum outcomes is discredited. But a decade after the most important event of the modern era, global policymakers are still struggling to understand what went wrong in the runSup to the crisis, and the wideSranging series of dislocations and shocks that have hit both the developed and emerging worlds ever since.
This course takes a practitionerSoriented perspective to the study of economic and political ideas ten years after the start of the crash. It examines the lasting effects of what Martin Wolf, chief economics commentator at the
, has called a series of crises that “destroyed confidence in the competence and probity of financial, economic and policymaking elites” around the world, and especially those in the advanced western economies, accelerating the economic rise of Asia, and China in particular.
The global financial crisis remains the defining event of our time. Any future policy maker, especially in Asia, needs to have an overview of the events that led up to it, and to understand the critical policy debates that have flowed from it, from the best way to regulate finance to debates about the future of economic growth in the era of the 4
Industrial Revolution. Most importantly, policy makers need to be able to think through what went wrong — both in economics, and in policy — in order to stop a similar crisis happening again. That is what this course will provide.
This course is divided into two parts. In the first, we examine the runSin to the crisis, and the crisis itself. In the second, we look at the implications of the crisis.
The first half examines
the causes and consequences of the crisis
. We look at the events that led up to the crisis, from the rise of Asia and the “great moderation” to the collapse of the US housing market.
examine how these events undermined faith in many previously bedrock economic assumptions, from the efficiency of financial markets to the effectiveness of financial regulation. We also look at the aftershocks of the crisis, notably in the ensuing eurozone crisis, and examine what went wrong throughout, looking specifically at the failure of markets and state action.
The second half of the course then looks at the
policy implications of the crisis
, with a focus on Asia. We examine the tools which have been developed to stop a further financial crisis. We ask when and where another financial crisis might occur. We examine various specific policy and economic challenges after the crisis, from the rise of global inequality to the problems of industrial policy and the rise of populism and nationalism.
We also return to the subject of economics itself, looking at new kinds of economic ideas to see the extent to which economics itself, which remains the most important academic discipline in policy making
been reformed after the crash.
Having completed this course, students will:
ppreciate the diversity of economic theories that contemporary policymaking, and show greater sensitivity to context when applying economic ideas to their futurecareers in public policy;
Understand in broad terms some of the history of economics ideas, how they have evolved, and how they might be applied intelligently to publicpolicy.
Develop a strong grounding in the most important economic policy debates of the current era, from the future of trade and globalisation to the reform of globalfinance.
Develop a more interSdisciplinary understanding of how governments in Asia and beyond should deal with complex economic phenomena.
This course deals in economic ideas, but it does need a deep background in economics. There will be no technical or mathematical economics exercises, and prior economic qualifications are not required.
Some readings, and especially the “big ideas” student presentations [see below] are written by academic or professional economists. However, most readings are drawn from general publications, such as the
In short, the course is suitable for any student at LKYSPP who has a basic understanding of economic ideas of the sort provided during the degree itself, and a willingness to learn unfamiliar concepts.
Class meetings will typically be split into two. The first will involve discussion of readings, student presentations, case studies or guest speakers. The second will involve more formal lectures.
Guest sessions will generally involve fireSside chats, although some will involve guest lectures. Students are expected to come to class ready to ask questions to guest speakers.
Student communication is an important part of this course. Students are expected to speak up in class. This will form an important portion of the class grade.
Students are expected to do
and should expect occasionally to be “cold called”, meaning the instructor will ask students to comment, rather than relying on those who put up their hands.
Laptop use is discouraged in class, although special requests for noteStaking only can be made by eSmail
to the instructor. Smartphones are not to be used in class.
Students are expected to arrive on time for class, or preferably slightly early. Late arrival will count against your class participation grade.
Any absence from class sessions must be explained in advance by eSmail, including for reasons of illness. In the case of illness, a doctor’s note should be provided.

The Japanese-backed DC fast charging standard is steadily spreading across the globe. Nissan recently installed Europe’s 1,000th CHAdeMO charger, and growth in Japan and the US has been similarly swift. As of January 2014, there are 1,967 CHAdeMO chargers in Japan, 1,020 in Europe and 554 in the US. According to a recent statement from the CHAdeMO Association, these chargers serve over 131,000 EV drivers, accounting for two thirds of the passenger EV market.
“We are pleased to see this result, as this is a clear testimony that CHAdeMO fast charging technology has won the trust of investors and consumers alike in different countries in Europe,” said Jorge Sanchez, the CHAdeMO Association’s European President.
Igor Demay, EV Technical Coordinator for PSA, also welcomes this development: “On top of the Peugeot iOn and Citroën C-Zero that have become the reference for EVs all over Europe, in 2013 we have launched the Peugeot Partner and Citroën Berlingo EVs, assembled in Spain, equipped with the CHAdeMO inlet. We are certain that fast-chargeable [commercial EVs] will present attractive options for business owners for their fleet use, and having a dense network of fast chargers is indispensable for further EV adoption.” The Peugeot iOn and Citroën C-Zero are rebadged versions of the Mitsubishi i-MiEV.
CHAdeMO fast chargers can be found in 25 countries across Europe. Ireland, Denmark and Estonia have established nationwide CHAdeMO charging networks, and Norway and the Netherlands are expected to follow suit soon.
Even as it crows about the rapid rise of its standard, the CHAdeMO Association is pushing for peaceful coexistence with the Combo standard that’s backed by the European Parliament and the German automakers. In its statement, the Association says that “multi-system chargers that are equipped with multiple connectors should be the answer going forward.”
“With multi-standard chargers, EV drivers can simply select, like Regular and Diesel, the right connector for the EV they drive,” affirms Joseph Beretta, President of AVERE-France. “Depending on the EV mix of the region, this can be an attractive and practical solution for EV drivers, investors, and automakers. More than anything, such multi-standard chargers should help accelerate e-mobility in Europe, which is essential.”

In the lush alpine meadow that serves as the setting for KP Trailhead, there is little indication you could possibly start here and, in a reasonably short time, find yourself deep in a desert canyon.But that's exactly what happens.
Like all Wilderness and Primitive Area trails, the KP Trail (# 70) is open to hiking and livestock use, but all types of motorized and mechanized transport are prohibited.
From KP Cienega, with its stately spruces and emerald grasses, this 9 mile long trail traces the wandering course of the South Fork of KP Creek as it drops toward the Blue. As the trail switchbacks from meadow to stream, upland vegetation gives way to riparian community of Douglas fir and moisture loving hardwoods. About 3 miles into the trip, the trail drops sharply into a picturesque canyonscape where the South Fork and the North Fork join to form KP Creek. Each tributary celebrates this get-together with its own ten foot waterfall.
Below the confluence, the canyon deepens as steep cliffs rise from the floor of the gorge. Stream and trail descend together here, between red and gray rock walls, as clear pools alternate with shallow riffles. Crossings become too many to count. At a few points, the trail climbs out of the inner gorge to avoid difficult going, and in the process offers access to broad views and a number of prospective campsites.
For its last three miles, the KP Trail climbs out of the canyon to offer more great views. Riparian vegetation is replaced by high desert plants including prickly pear, cholla, yucca and scrub oak as the trail leaves behind the sheltered environment of the canyon for dryer, more exposed surroundings. Higher ground also brings broader views of Sawed-Off Mountain as well as of KP Canyon The vista widens to include Bear Mountain and the surrounding ridges of the Blue Range as the trail tops the ridge that separates KP and Steeple Creek Canyons. Views stretching into New Mexico form a panorama as KP Trail ends at its junction with Steeple Creek Trail atop the red, stony mesa.
0.0 KP Cienega Trailhead. Trail crosses meadow into the timber.
0.9 Trail crosses creek after two switchback descent.
2.7 Trail climbs out of canyon on north side.
2.9 Junction with North Fork KP Trail (# 93). Two waterfalls are directly downstream.
5.6 Junction with Blue Lookout Trail (# 71).
6.5 Junction with McKittrick Trail (# 72).
6.6 Trail crosses creek for the last time as it contours out of drainage bottom to the north.
9.4 Junction with Steeple Trail (# 73) at a gate. Mud Springs Corral is 1/8 mile away in Steeple Canyon.
At a Glance
May through October
No mechanized vehicles (including mountain bikes) permitted in Primitive Area.
Drive south from Alpine 28 miles on US 191 to the 1.3 mile road leading to KP Cienega Campground and the trailhead marked by a parking area and information kiosk.
There are trout big enough to fish for in the pools downstream of the confluence.
The KP Trail is accessible via a number of trails, including the North Fork KP Trail (# 93), the Blue Lookout Trail (# 71), and the McKittrick Trail (# 72), all of which provide additional access from US 191. The Steeple Trail (# 73) ( offers access from either US 191 or the Blue River Road, Forest Road 281. The first three trails combine with KP Trail to provide strenuous but manageable day hikes. A Steeple Creek/KP hike in one day would be long for most hikers at 17.2 miles.
