Even though, Colorectal Cancer Awareness Month has passed in March, we believe you can never have enough awareness and education on this disease. In addition, only yearly detection and preventative steps can help to identify and a ddress the development of this very serious disease. Colon cancer is the second most leading cancer killer in the United States, following lung cancer in men and breast cancer in women. Every year, over 140,000 Americans are diagnosed as having colorectal cancer. Of this population, an estimated 44% will die as a result of this disease. Colorectal cancer is cancer of the colon or rectum. It is as common in women as it.

We are all TOXIC, and that’s a fact. Our daily exposure to environmental and chemical toxins and common medications taxes our bodies and hampers our health. Many of the foods we eat, our daily eating routine, and even how we think about food contribute to problems such as weight gain, lower energy levels, and illnesses like diabetes, heart disease and high cholesterol. With many conflicting messages about detoxification and healthy eating, the question becomes how do you lower that toxic burden on your body safely and effectively? How do you maintain new healthy lifestyle practices for yourself and your family? The answer is simple: clean eating and clean living with.

Saks Woes Send Hudson's Bay Tumbling on Third-Quarter Lossby
Department-store operator Hudson’s Bay Co. fell the most in more than three years after posting an unexpected third-quarter loss, hurt by reduced spending from tourists at its Saks Fifth Avenue chain.
The loss in the quarter through Oct. 31 was 4 cents a share, excluding some items, the Toronto-based company said in a statement after the market closed on Thursday. Analysts had estimated profit of 7 cents a share, on average. While acquisitions helped sales rise 34 percent to C$2.57 billion ($1.88 billion), that still trailed analysts’ C$2.65 billion average projection.
With the weak third-quarter performance, Hudson’s Bay has become the latest department-store company struggling to get consumers to spend, following dismal results from peers Macy’s Inc. and Nordstrom Inc. At Saks Fifth Avenue, the strong U.S. dollar has caused a dropoff spending by foreign tourists in the U.S., especially Canadians, Russians and Brazilians, Hudson’s Bay executives said on a conference call. Unseasonably warm weather and a continued decline in foot traffic at malls also hurt sales, the retailer said.
“The luxury business at Saks Fifth Avenue continues to face headwinds,” Chief Executive Officer Jerry Storch said in the statement. Same-store sales fell 3.6 percent at Saks Fifth Avenue on a constant-currency basis.
Hudson’s Bay, which also owns the Lord & Taylor and Galeria Kaufhof chains, tumbled 13 percent to C$17.40 in Toronto, the biggest drop since shares began trading in November 2012. Hudson’s Bay has now fallen 29 percent this year.

The passing of former Australian prime minister Bob Hawke sent shockwaves through the closing days of the 2019 federal election campaign.
Hawke, one of the most successful Labor prime ministers in Australia’s rich history, enjoyed popularity until his death. From his plain-talking style to his world-renowned affection for beer and to his famous Australia jacket, Bob Hawke connected with Australians, many of whom are mourning him today. Labor, Coalition, and other opposition figures offered condolences for the Silver Bodgie.
Prime Minister Scott Morrison:
Bob Hawke was a great Australian who led and served our country with passion, courage, and an intellectual horsepower that made our country stronger.
He was true to his beliefs in the Labor tradition and defined the politics of his generation and beyond.
— Scott Morrison (@ScottMorrisonMP) May 16, 2019
Labor leader Bill Shorten:
The labour movement salutes our greatest son.
Australians everywhere remember and honour a man who gave so much to the country and people he cared for so deeply.
May he rest in peace. pic.twitter.com/NzKwxW1e4X
— Bill Shorten (@billshortenmp) May 16, 2019
Greens leader Richard Di Natale:
Vale Bob Hawke. A giant among PMs. He had the courage to save the Franklin River when all looked lost. He got World Heritage listing of the Daintree Wet Tropics. He introduced Medicare. Legend. You’ll be missed Silver Bodgie.
— Richard Di Natale (@RichardDiNatale) May 16, 2019
Former prime minister Kevin Rudd:
Bob Hawke is a giant of Australian politics. He and Paul Keating internationalised the Australian economy. He established APEC and radically deepened Australia’s engagement with Asia. He established Medicare. Together with Therese and the entire nation, I mourn his passing.
— Kevin Rudd (@MrKRudd) May 16, 2019
This is not an obituary for Hawke, rather us staying in our lane by looking at his electoral history. Under Hawke, the Labor Party won four consecutive elections, something no other Labor prime minister did before, or has done since.
1983 Australian Election: Bob Hawke Gets In
After eight years of Liberal premiership by Malcolm Fraser, Hawke became prime minister of Australia in 1983. This was a big win for Labor, who last won an election under Gough Whitlam. Labor picked up two dozen seats en route to a 25-seat majority, back when the House of Representatives had just 125 members. The Labor gains were spread very evenly amongst the states: for example, five ALP gains in New South Wales, six in Victoria, five in Western Australia, and five in Queensland.
In Hawke’s first election and victory as Labor leader, their two-party preferred vote increased thanks to a 3.6 percent swing. The ALP finished with 53.23 percent of the 2PP vote.
1984 Australian Election: Second Term for Hawke
Less than two years after the 1983 election, Australia went back to the polls. The House of Representatives added 23 seats to rise to 148. Andrew Peacock led the Liberals, but it was another Victorian, Bob Hawke’s, election to win as he claimed a second mandate. Labor rose just seven seats to 82 while the Coalition jumped to 66, or a rise of 16. A small handful of sitting Labor MPs were defeated, whereas none lost in 1983.
The ALP suffered a modest swing against of 1.46 percent but still held together 51.77 percent of the two-party preferred vote.
1987 Australian Election: Bob Hawke Three-peat
Andrew Peacock left the Liberal leadership in favour of another future prime minister, John Howard. Yet, Ol’ Silver was bound for his third consecutive majority government at the top of Labor. The Labor Party won 86 seats, a gain of four, while the Coalition shed four seats. Despite their increase in parliamentary seats, the Coalition picked up almost a percent to a 49.17 percent two-party preferred figure.
Just two sitting Labor MPs lost their seats, one of which was in Hawke’s home state of Victoria.
1990 Australian Election: One More for Bob Hawke
With his victory in the 1990 Australian federal election, Hawke became the only Labor prime minister to date to win a fourth-straight poll. Though his government waned in popularity towards the end, it still had enough staying power to generate another majority. Hawke would be replaced a year later by Paul Keating after the latter spent years in waiting. Keating went on to a shocking general election upset win in 1993 before John Howard led the Coalition back in 1996.
Hawke again faced Andrew Peacock, back in charge of the Liberal Party, with the result being a narrow Labor majority. Unlike his other three wins, however, the Labor Party lost the two-party preferred race: 50.1 percent Coalition to 49.9 Labor.

Seoul, South Korea and SAN JOSE, California, June 2, 2021 / PRNewswire / – SK Inc. C&C, a subsidiary of the SK Group in South Korea, and BriteLab in Silicon Valley today announced the signing of a partnership agreement to collaborate in the joint development of the global manufacturing business in the U.S. market.
Some of the highlights of the joint effort will include:
Collaboration between BriteLab’s Automated Material Handling System (AMHS) and SK Inc. C&C smart manufacturing platform and solutions
Development of new digital activities, such as AI-based component quality inspection with high demand from current BriteLab customers
Cooperation to apply the specialized vertical manufacturing solutions of SK Inc. C&C, such as “iFactory Smart Vision”.
Co-development of a high tech manufacturing company for CM / CE customers based in USA
Seong-ha Park, CEO of SK Inc. C&C today announced that SK Inc. C&C has signed a partnership agreement with BriteLab, which specializes in automated material handling systems in the United States for the joint development of high tech global manufacturing.
BriteLab, Inc., located at San jose, california, is the leading AMHS semiconductor company in United States.
Current customers for its AMHS installation bases include Texas Instruments (TI), NXP Semiconductors, On-Semi, Global Foundry, ST Micro, TSMC, SSMC, and UMC. BriteLab currently has 24 global 200mm and 300mm foundry customers.
The agreement between SK Inc. C&C and BriteLab aims to promote the expansion of the high-tech manufacturing business based on Britelab’s AMHS platform. By combining the multiple manufacturing software solutions of SK Inc. C&C, the joint partnership is expected to deliver the best smart manufacturing platforms and solutions that will be successfully implemented in the manufacturing industry.
BriteLab’s AMHS offers an overhead hoist (OHT) system using high-tech factory robotic systems using sophisticated robots from the ceiling and floor of production lines. Robots are autonomous vehicles managed and controlled by software to support fast and precise automation of the production of high-tech materials in factories.

It is widely used in the field of ESG (Environment Social Governance), such as quality control (QA) work which eliminates the defects of parts and finished products throughout the production process as well as the application in the production. water quality management. By collecting images created using cameras or CCTV and analyzing the data, SmartVision can quickly perform highly accurate inspection tasks that previously required operators to use separate and expensive quality equipment, which can result in poor inspection, product identification and dimensional measurements.
The two companies are also exploring high-tech manufacturing activities for BriteLab’s current customer installation base outside of the semiconductor business as BriteLab provides contract manufacturing (CM) and contract engineering services. (EC) in the United States. BriteLab provides production robotics and automation platforms in autonomous vehicles and robots, factory automation robots, data center surveillance robots, intelligent machines and autonomous drones. With the CM and CE activities of BriteLab and in collaboration with C&C Solutions of SK Inc., the companies plan to offer a high-tech digital manufacturing service based on a digital platform in connection with its customers with the signing of the partnership agreement. “By combining BritetLab’s AMHS-based manufacturing logistics capabilities and SK Inc. C&C’s manufacturing automation capabilities, we look forward to building a high-tech manufacturing company that will lead customers’ digital innovation. Accordingly, we will actively engage in marketing to our customers. customers worldwide as well as here in the United States, ”said Steven kwak, CEO of BriteLab.
“With our partnership with BriteLab, we look forward to growing our global business together for the vertical manufacturing solutions industry and showcasing user-friendly digital services to meet the needs of BriteLab’s manufacturing customers in the United States,” said Young. -dae Kim, Director of New Digital Business Development at SK Inc.

After I participated in Réal Laplaine's publishing class on November 21, I knew how to publish and distribute my upcoming book. I will use CreateSpace (powered by Amazon) and a print-on-demand service in Gothenburg, Sweden. At the end of the class, Bengt Alvang (Alvång) presented how you could be found in cyberspace. I will read his book, See You at the Top of Google, in the near future.
My book journey will be covered in a new online journal (weblog).
I have a challenge in order to get forward with the book... I have to start to write! ;) And I have to come up with a solution to create a combo of a fable, manifesto and textbook on tea. Which category will fit the book?
My goal is to publish the book on December 16, 2014, as a tribute to the Boston Tea Party on December 16, 1773.
I look forward to your book writing tips! :)

On the New Canon at Q2: Monday April 4, 2011 “A Night at the Opera”
Celebrating the Composers of this Week’s 21c Liederabend
Celebrating the diversity that is Q2
“Once described by Aaron Copland as “la forme fatale,” opera has been getting a new lease on life as of late thanks to the ingenious and intrepid producer Beth Morrison. Dubbed by Zachary Woolfe of The New York Observer as “the opera lady who likes it crazy,” Morrison figures prominently into the new music scene this spring with a return to New York City Opera’s VOX Contemporary American Opera Lab in May.
More immediately, Morrison reprises her collaboration with Opera on Tap and VisionIntoArt, called the 21c Liederabend, for three nights April 7 through 9. The lieder-palooza features libretti by the likes of Jonathan Safran Foer and Susan Yankowitz plus performers including the American Contemporary Music Ensemble [ACME], countertenor Anthony Roth Costanzo and WQXR’s Overnight Music host Helga Davis.
Oh yeah, there are 20 diverse yet equally-badass composers, too. Beguiling composer and performer Du Yun presents a 21c Liederabend commission that, in her words “tells a snapshot of memory-flashback… A desire withered.” Today, we hear her on home turf with the International Contemporary Ensemble and chat Du Yun up in a live conversation about her work in both the composing and performance realms, plus her upcoming premiere. Join in the chat below or on Twitter with the hash tag #q2new.
Du Yun (Denise Anderson (Courtesty of Boosey & Hawkes))
We also highlight Q2’s Album of the Week, Julia Wolfe’s wordless yet no less operatic Cruel Sister, with a limited time free download from the piece’s new recording on Cantaloupe Music, available here starting Monday. Recently performed at Wolfe’s Composer Portrait series at Columbia University’s Miller Theatre, Wolfe’s spellbinding and dramatic piece tells the story of two sisters wooed by the same man and the resulting deathly consequences of passion and jealousy.
As icing on the cake, we’ll hear works by Liederabend vets Matt Marks and David T. Little.

Ring rolling is widely used to produce seamless rings for critical structural components in assembly industries, such as machinery, aeronautics, energy and automotive. The complex process is characterized by high nonlinearity, unsteady and asymmetrical three-dimensional deformation, dynamic contact boundary conditions caused by the rotations of ring and rolls. A numerical model based on dynamic explicit finite element approach is proposed in this paper to simulate the process behaviors. An expanded ring has been obtained by numerical simulations with the model. Strain and stress analyses have been performed on the rolled ring.

This project in Point Piper involved a substantial reconstruction of a 1930’s Spanish Mission house on Sydney Harbour. The building had undergone many minor refurbishments over the years, and we sought to unify the various spaces with a consistent treatment of materiality and detail. Polished render and reclaimed natural timber were used as the core materials to unify the interiors and create a natural flow of space.
The interior architecture was developed in a sculptural manner where the spaces were opened for daylight to play on the interior forms. The house had previously felt dark in many areas and by creating double height atriums, oversized doorways and organic forms, the light is now an integral part of the interior experience.


The Roots covered Madvillain with Weird Al, playing Rebuild the Dream event @ Town Hall after Blue Note shows
Would you call it Weird Roots? Madlib and Doom aligned in 2004 to form Madvillain. Their debut LP Madvillainy for Stones Throw included the song "Accordion". Now The Roots have banded together with Weird Al (!) to record a cover of "Accordion". Listen below.
Weird Al was on Fallon last night (hence the meeting up of the two artists), though the cover is not what was performed on air (it was performed during soundcheck). Listen to the cover (which Questlove posted online), and watch the Roots and Al perform "Beer Barrell Polka" (a Fallon web exclusive), below. No word on if "Weird Roots" will release any more material, but you can hear a new-er Madvillain song from their forthcoming LP in a Stones Throw podcast.
As previously discussed, The Roots are in the midst of a series of Blue Note Jazz Fest shows at the Blue Note. Tonight (6/21), Questlove presents the second night of Mo' Meta Blues I, his supergroup consisting of Booker T on organ/keyboards/vocals, Eric Krasno on guitar, and Christian McBridge on bass. Tomorrow (6/22) is Mo' Meta Blues II, The Roots tribute to the 25th anniversary of the seminal Paid in Full LP. Rakim will join the crew at the venue as the band performs the album in its entirety. All four remaining shows are sold-out (early and late each night), but 21-plus'ers can still get in at the bar on a first come, first served basis.
The Roots will also perform at the launch of "Rebuild the Dream" at Town Hall in NYC on Thursday (6/23) "Van Jones calls this new wave of energy the "American Dream Movement". Along with The Roots, artists/DJ Shepard Fairey and other celebrities will be appearing at the campaign commencement." We're unsure of how you can get yourself in this show, but you can watch it online and learn more at their website.
Check out both versions of "Accordion" below.

BLACKMAN TOWNSHIP, Mich. (WWJ/AP) – Police say a 16-year-old boy accidentally shot and killed his 21-year-old brother with a handgun that he didn’t know was loaded.
Blackman-Leoni Department of Public Safety Deputy Director Jon Johnston said the 911 call came in at around 7:30 p.m. Saturday from a home in the 5000 block of Big Rock Street in Blackman Township, in Jackson County.READ MORE: Michigan Launches MI Benefits Center To Help Residents Apply For Food Assistance
Johnston said officers were met by the teen who told them he’d gone into his older brother’s room to show him the weapon; and, joking around, asked “Do you feel lucky?” before firing.
“There was some horseplay going on and the 16-year-old advised that he thought the gun was unloaded when he pulled the trigger,” Johnston told WWJ Newsradio 950’s Beth Fisher.
Johnston said their parents were at the grocery store at the time and the brothers were the only people home. The 21-year-old was pronounced dead at the scene in Jackson County’s Blackman Township.READ MORE: Multiple Students Facing Charges For School Threats In Metro Detroit
“It’s obviously very tragic for the family, but it reiterates the importance of gun safety — and always assume that the firearm is loaded,” said Johnston. “(It was) clearly tragic, especially this time of year around the holidays.”
Johnston said investigators are working to determine who owned the gun, but it didn’t belong to either parent or the brother who was killed.
Johnston said police will “complete an in-depth investigation to determine what actions are appropriate from there.” He said the investigation should take a few days.

“High – Flying adventure of pure excitement, laughs and wonderment “
For many, 2017 will be a year remembered for its dreadful atrocities and divisive political narratives which seeped into every aspect of our daily lives. Thank goodness at this time of year we can look forward to many delightful Christmas traditions, finely wrapped presents, delicious food, copious amounts of drink and the best of all pantomime. This ever popular favourite gives us the opportunity, for a few hours, to leave the real world at the theatre doors and immerse ourselves in a land of fantasy with family, friends and loved ones.
Fantasyland for me this year was Neverland, where I joined Peter Pan at Theatre Royal Plymouth for a high-flying adventure of pure excitement, laughs and wonderment. There was a real hum of anticipation in the auditorium whilst the adults and children eagerly awaited the start of the adventure. Against a backdrop of lavish scenery and superb lighting, the stage and auditorium were soon filled with a vibrant mixture of bright colours and loud music, which was an early hint of the magic to come.
Joe Sleight as Peter Pan soon had the audience engaged as he flew across the stage, as did Isobel Hathaway as Tinkerbell and Mikaela Newton as Wendy, the jealous tension between the latter soon becoming apparent.
Andy Ford as Smee reassuringly provided the laughs throughout the evening with his mixture of traditional slapstick and skillful engagement with the audience, he showed himself to be a real master of entertainment, captivating the children and adults. Another master of delivery was Dawson Chance playing pirate Starky, his ventriloquist and playful ad lib skills were a joy to watch as he worked magic with his turtle Weary Willie and his dog Piddling Pete
Steve McFadden as the scheming Captain Hook soon had the audience booing and shouting as he became locked in mortal combat with Peter Pan. Rachel Spry as Mimi the Magical Mermaid was in great voice belting out some strong vocals. It was a great night for the two local Plymouth boys, Noah Crump as John Darling and James Ferrier as Michael Darling who both took full advantage of the opportunity to perform in their home city.
There were some well choreographed dance routines and impressive high-flying antics but the real show stopper was Tick-Tock the crocodile whose commanding presence noisily filled the stage making children and adults jump back their seats in shocked amazement. The high – flying entertainment and slapstick comedy only paused briefly whilst a quartet of children joined Smee on stage to sing a song helped along with some lively audience participation, a moment the children and some of the adults will remember I’m sure.
If you are looking for a tonic over the festive season, join the crew of the Jolly Roger, escape to Neverland and spend a few hours immersed in a land of sheer spectacle with music, dance and laughs a plenty.

Canada travel information: Arctic travel
Summary - removal of advice on the tsunami warning following an earthquake off the coast of north Alaska
Travelchimps aims to provide ALL the information you need (see our Travel Dashboard). This page uses data from UK Foreign and Commonwealth Office. The usual caveat: we cannot guarantee import of this information was error free and therefore the accuracy of this page. Always use a number of sources to check important information
Advice current as at 4:00 am 18 Feb 2018.
Large numbers of British nationals travel successfully and safely in and around the Arctic each year. The Arctic is, however, a vast region, comprising the northerly areas of Canada, Finland, Greenland (Denmark), Iceland, Norway, Russia, Sweden and Alaska (United States). In addition to reading the specific travel advice for each of these countries, prospective visitors to the Arctic should also consider carefully the potential remoteness of certain destinations from search and rescue, evacuation and medical facilities. Independent travellers are particularly advised to develop contingency arrangements for emergency back-up.
The most popular way of visiting the Arctic is by ship. As some areas of the Arctic -specifically the more northerly and remote regions - can be uncharted and ice-covered, you should check the previous operational experience of cruise and other operators offering travel in the region. You should also consider the on-board medical facilities of cruise ships and talk to cruise operators as appropriate, particularly if you have a pre-existing medical condition.
The eight Arctic States take their international search and rescue obligations very seriously, and have recently signed a binding agreement on search and rescue co-operation in the Arctic. However, in the highest latitude regions of the Arctic, cruise ships may be operating in relative isolation from other vessels and/or inhabited areas. You should be aware that in these regions, search and rescue response will often need to be despatched from many hundreds of miles away, and assistance to stranded vessels may take several days to arrive, particularly in bad weather. Search and rescue assets are also likely to offer only basic transport and basic medical care, and are unlikely to be capable of advanced life-support. Responsible cruise operators should happily provide additional information relevant to the circumstances of the cruise they are offering, and address any concerns you may have.
Consular assistance and support to British nationals in the Arctic will be affected by the capacity of national and local authorities. You should make sure you have adequate travel insurance and accessible funds to cover the cost of any medical treatment or potential repatriation.

Updated: The World Cup has prompted a record number of users to tune in online and follow the tournament via live streams — or has it? ESPN claimed the other day that the online audience for the game between the U.S. and Algeria was unprecedented, with 1.1 million viewers watching the game in real time on ESPN3. ESPN’s press release read, in part:
“The U.S. vs. Algeria game marked a milestone for online video, logging the largest U.S. audience ever for a sports event on the web.”
Not so fast, was the response from CBS today. CBS has been hugely successful with its March Madness on Demand franchise, and the network is now saying that ESPN simply looked at the wrong numbers when it compared the basketball tournament with the World Cup.
Granted, the final March Madness on Demand face-off between Duke and Butler attracted only about half of Wednesday’s ESPN3 soccer audience, but the Florida vs. BYU game was actually watched by 1,115,097 viewers. That’s about 15,000 more than the U.S. team’s 91st minute miracle.
Here’s some data listing World Cup and March Madness online audiences, as provided by CBS:
Meanwhile, others are also claiming their own records. Yahoo said today that its World Cup site clocked more than 7.9 million unique visitors from June 7 through June 13, which made it the most popular soccer site during that time period. And Univision told us that it is actually outperforming ESPN3 online relative to the size of the two networks’ broadcast audiences. The network also said that it saw 700,000 hours of live streaming on day 12 of the World Cup alone.
Update: ESPN3’s senior director of research, Dave Coletti, just told me that his company doesn’t agree with CBS. “They’re not comparing apples to apples,” he said. The original claim of largest online audience was based on the average audience, which takes into account both the number of viewers and the time they spent watching.
ESPN3’s average audience during the game in question was 320,000, which Coletti said he was confident represented “substantially more viewers than any other sports event.” ESPN3 would even win by uniques if it also counted its three foreign language feeds of the game, he added. In the end, he told me, fighting over a few thousand viewers isn’t productive, but the issue shows how important accurate measurement of live events online is. ESPN3 has long been favoring to use average audience sizes for this, which is common in the world of TV measurement.

Someone recently requested about the advantages of solo climbing on the Colorado Trail By way of-Hike 2017 Fb web page. I am unsure beginning as a novice hiker within the Swedish highlands is a great thought. This restricted model of our biggest-promoting waterproof hiking boot has a selected waxed-canvas upper.

The Chisos Mountains contain quite a few probably the most rewarding day hikes in Huge Bend, particularly all through the summer season months when it’s too scorching to hike at decrease elevations in the park. You could be completely and utterly hooked on solo climbing, I just perceive it. Constructed for males who don’t ideas getting misplaced, our climbing line put the soul of a working shoe into the only of a rugged, trailblazing climbing boot. All completely different campgrounds please identify: 517-317-8600 to e-book. The nationwide Mountaineering Route 1 (By way of Alpina) goes via Simmental.

The instances alone on the path are extremely pleasant, and if it is rather remoted, are a good time to refocus, assume, pray, breathe, meditate, or no matter you want to do. It’s simply you on the market (and probably some hungry animals) so get pleasure from it. I normally meet tonnes of people on the way in which in which to talk with at viewpoints, and to spend time with on the camp websites every night time, however I can hike at my very own tempo in the course of the day. Figuring out what to carry backpacking is probably going one of the things many individuals new to backpacking struggle with.


Jim Lorenzen, CFP®, AIF®
More and more boomers are beginning to approach retirement.
No news there; but something’s been happening – and continues to happen – that can negatively impact people who waited hoping to get a better deal regarding their retirement income. It’s little wonder that so many retirement plans are in jeopardy.
You see, immediate income annuity sales totaled $9.7 billion last year – a 17% spike. My guess is, as the boomer retirement bubble really begins to hit, that number will be much higher.
It’s Economics 101: Supply and Demand. As more and more boomers purchase annuities to cover their basic expenses in retirement, this demand coupled with increasing life expectancies, will likely have a dramatic effect on payout rates for future purchasers.
According to an excellent article by Tom Henga, writing in the June issue of Retirement Advisor, a Society of Actuaries (SOA) committee released the final report of RP-2014 mortality tables in October and those tables reveal a consistent trend, which if it continues for the next 14 years, means in 2028 life expectancy might rise to 88.6 years for males aged 65, and 91.2 years for females the same age.
According to Mr. Henga, these updated mortality tables will require insurance companies to lower their payout rates in order to properly reflect longer life spans. His logic is easy to understand and the math isn’t hard to do.
The trend increasing life expectancies – along with the consumer demand for guaranteed income solutions – could very well result in annuity payout rates going from 14 percent to 10 percent, from 9 percent to 7 percent, and from 7 percent to 5 percent. It’s about longevity credits. As demand increases, something has to give.
People who’ve been avoiding annuities now because of today’s low interest rates may find themselves wishing later that they had understood the situation. As Mr. Henga points out, income annuities are not an interest-rate play; they’re a longevity credit play.
Most people have no idea how annuities work or why the insurance companies can provide such high cash flows in a low interest rate environment. The key is longevity credits, i.e., mortality credits. It’s what separates annuities from investments.
When new mortality tables reflect increased aging, chances are better than good that insurance company payout rates will be reduced because of the adjustment in mortality credits. And, chances are, due to the factors cited above, we may be seeing the highest longevity credits we may ever see the rest of our lives…. And many of these adjustments may very well occur in the next 12 months!
Longevity credits aren’t unlimited. It’s the life insurance on the books that provides the built-in hedge to lifetime annuity sales. As people live longer and the demand for credits increases, the pool of available credits decreases. Econ. 101: This will affect pricing of annuity products in the future.
Boomers, of course, are becoming more preoccupied with covering 100% of their non-discretionary, basic retirement needs, and using other investments to address inflation and discretionary spending. Those who secure their annuities earlier in their planning can lock-in these longevity credits early.
Tom Henga likens it to fishing in a fully-stocked pond, as opposed to a pond with a limited supply of fish.
Income annuities come in all shapes and sizes, of course, and the long list of insurance carriers selling them each offer a variety of designs, each with their own bells and whistles. They can be complex products; but, they can also have simple, easy to understand designs. It’s important, however, to avoid the tendency of grabbing the best-looking shiny thing that may have other problems embedded.
Annuities, as mentioned earlier, are gaining in importance however; and they may be worth a look now, more than ever, because of the Econ. 101 issues cited above.
Retirement planning can be a little tricky. In fact, I believe – and many experts agree with me – that most retirement plans will probably fail. I’ve even created a special report that explains why. I think you may find it interesting. You can access it here.
Hope it helps!

U.S. jobs growth in November jumped at the fastest pace in ten months and smashed all estimates. The official report from the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) showed that non-farm payrolls increased by 266,000, well above the forecast of 187,000.
President Trump even boasted about the stellar job numbers on Twitter.
Even President Trump’s arch enemy—the mainstream media—bought into the euphoria with the likes of Jim Cramer calling it “the best jobs report of our lives.”
The BLS report propelled the Dow Jones Industrial Average back above 28,000 for a gain of 1.2%.
But were the job numbers really that good? I don’t think so; there are a few things the mainstream media and Wall Street seem to be missing about the report.
The ADP Research Institute released its private payrolls numbers about 48 hours before the official BLS report. Usually, there’s a high correlation between the job numbers of both the agencies. For November, there was a discrepancy of 199,000. As per ADP, the U.S. private sector added just 67,000 workers.
The divergence between the two job reports is one of the highest ever and casts a shadow of doubt on the BLS numbers. As per ADP, the goods-producing sector saw a decline of 18,000 jobs whereas the BLS report showed a net gain of 54,000 jobs in this category.
The primary reason behind this discrepancy was the 41,000 “new jobs” created in the auto industry after striking GM workers returned to work. Since all these employees already had jobs and would have gone back to work anyway, counting their return as new jobs is disingenuous on BLS’ part.
The Federal government has long had a reputation of reporting fake inflation and unemployment numbers to maintain the illusion of a strong economy. Even Trump himself used to claim that the job numbers were fake before he was elected.
Given the history of government manipulation, there’s a good chance that the huge discrepancy between the two job numbers was a result of some chicanery.
Another thing that the mainstream media have not taken into consideration is that a lot of these new jobs are likely low-paying, part-time jobs. November is a seasonally strong month for employment as companies go on a hiring spree to prepare for the festive season. Many of these new employees are let go after the Christmas rush. These temporary jobs are not indicative of a strong economy.
Also, since many of the new jobs are part-time, there’s a good chance that a lot of people took two or even three jobs. A single person taking three part-time jobs is counted as three new jobs in the BLS numbers and this makes the headline number appear better than it actually is.
High Frequency Trading (HFT) loved the BLS numbers and caused the markets to move higher on Friday. However, the economy is probably not as strong as the jobs report suggests.

The FIA, ACO and IMSA are targeting the release of its proposal for the 2017 LMP2 regulations within the next few weeks, according to FIA World Endurance Championship CEO Gerard Neveu.
Speaking to media Friday evening at Paul Ricard, site of this weekend’s pre-season Prologue test, Neveu confirmed no final decision has been made on the regulations, despite multiple meetings with manufacturers, both at Sebring and this week at Paul Ricard.
“At this moment we haven’t made any proposal,” Neveu said. “[The manufacturers] are still working around the table. The only thing you have discovered is that the World Council proposed the idea that it could be a single engine and we could do a tender for that in the future.
“Regarding all of the other decisions, it’s still under discussion and the full and global presentation of that will be presented in a couple of weeks, as soon as the technical commission will give the final result of the discussion.”
Details of the meetings with manufacturers have yet to be revealed, although there is at least one change to the original proposal, revealed in a Sportscar365 exclusive last month, as ACO President Pierre Fillon confirmed the LMP2 class will not become a spec tire category.
Neveu stressed the importance of keeping LMP2 sustainable for privateers, although he would not reveal their target in reduction in costs.
“The philosophy is that we have to absolutely pay attention to the running costs and to make sure we can guarantee a sustainable an a good business plan for the future,” he said. “This category is very attractive, very competitive and fighting. If you don’t control that it can go in different direction.
“The second thing is that it’s a category for privateers, nothing to do with manufacturers. The idea is to guarantee the framework that’s correct to engage for a long-term program because this is interest of the ACO.
“We also need to do a harmonization between the different continental championships, between North American, European and Asian, to make sure we provide a good future for LMP2, and of course for WEC and Le Mans at the end.”
Neveu wouldn’t confirm a precise date for the release of its proposal, which would be subject the approval of the FIA World Motor Sport Council, although the projected timing would correspond to the FIA WEC and European Le Mans Series season-opening weekend at Silverstone on April 10-12.

Take a Hike: Court Rules U.S. Forest Service Can't Charge People to Just Visit National Forests
A ruling released earlier this month by the U.S. 9th Circuit Court of Appeals found in favor of four hikers who objected to having to pay a fee to visit a National Forest, and this could find visitors relieved of having to pay daily or annual fees to simply visit the land.
According to the Inland Valley Daily Bulletin, the "court reversed a district court ruling, saying the federal authorities violated the 2004 Federal Lands Recreation Enhancement Act (FLREA)" by requiring users pay a fee. The specific location where the case's plaintiffs had visited was the Coronado National Forest in Arizona, but the ruling might bring an end to the national Adventure Pass program.
"The Adventure Pass program began in 1997 as part of a Fee Demonstration Program," explains the Daily Bulletin. "It attracted protests from activists who said it amounted to 'double taxation' for using federal lands already paid for through taxes."
This does not mean, however, that the forests will no longer charge fees.
At issue is visitors who do not use the park amenities being asked to pay to visit the land. Many hikers, roadside snackers, and photographers--or even just those who park inside the forest--have been asked to provide proof of fee payment, though they contend they did not use any of the amenities offered at national parks:
Those who go to a place in the forest with "a majority of the nine amenities" such as picnic tables, permanent toilets, garbage cans and running water, may be charged, the court said.
It is, indeed, said the court, possible to visit a National Forest, but not use the amenities, and therefore, it is not okay for the US Forest Service to demand a fee.
Decisions on the 9th Circuit affect western states, however an Arcadia-based U.S. Forest Service spokesperson had nothing official to say about the recent ruling.
In the ruling Judge Robert Gettleman wrote: "Everyone is entitled to enter national forests without paying a cent."
Many people may opt to avoid the fee stress altogether, and visit places like Angeles National Forest, Los Padres National Forest, or Cleveland National Forest on "fee free" days, such as those offered on Veteran's Day or National Public Lands Day in the past.

Spamilton, the off-Broadway parody of the musical phenomenon Hamilton, released a cast album on DRG Records last week.
The cast recording features original Spamilton cast members Dan Rosales, Nicholas Edwards, Juwan Crawley, Chris Anthony Giles, Nora Schell, with special guest stars Christine Pedi and Glenn Bassett, and Music Director Fred Barton on piano.

In India's Rajasthan state the fallout from terrorist bombings in the state and the attack on Mumbai in November have hit the tourism trade. The downturn has been accentuated by the global recession. But many traders rely on local spending on festivals and the wedding season, now at its peak, to earn their livelihood.
The wedding season in Rajasthan is in full swing. Drummers can be heard outside the homes of families of newlyweds, like this home in the city Udaipur.
The wedding season - during the cool, dry months of the year - triggers a wave of consumption. Textile traders are busy selling new clothes. Bazaars are crowded with women huddled together to seek the best money can buy. Jewelry shops see busy trade.
Jewelry sector is doing well
In Udaipur, the global economic downturn now carving its way across the United States and Europe is still to be fully felt.
Rajrajeshwar Jain is a jeweler in the Bada Bazaar in Udaipur. Jain says business has been brisk.
"Now presently the wedding season is running and business is good, especially gold business - [prices] is rising slowly, slowly - one reason is the gold rate is down so purchasing power is higher. After 14 January again the wedding season we think - we are getting more business," Jain explained.
Tourism industry is suffering
But not all businesses are faring as well. Tourism, especially by foreign visitors, has been a victim the economic slowdown. In addition, a string of terrorist bombings and attacks in India, including here in Rajasthan, as well as the attack last year in Mumbai, have hurt tourism.
Ashwani Nayar, the general manager of the Le Meridien Hotel in Jaipur, says the first signs of a downturn came with the banking crisis in the United States.
"I would be very dishonest if I said no [the recession] hasn't [affected business]," Nayar noted. "Certainly there has been a certain amount of fall back from the global recession that has happened. We've had a few cancellations, we've had a few numbers dropping - more than what we were expecting."
Terror attacks, economic slump blamed for lack of tourists
For travel agents and tourist shops near Udaipur's famed Lake Pichola - its waters lapping against the grand palaces on its shores - the drop in visitors has been severe. Bhupendra Singh Chouhan manages a travel agency catering to foreign visitors.
"Whether we are looking at Rajasthan or in India also because lots of tourists not coming directly; lots of cancellations due to the economy of the world banking and due to some bomb blasts in India - so they are canceling their group. We had lots of cancellations this time," Chouhan said.
Rajasthan normally receives 1.4 million visitors a year, lured by the state's camel festivals, beautiful desert scenery, music and folk culture and the splendor of its ancient palaces.
The drop in foreign visitors became evident after a terrorist attack in Rajasthan's capital, Jaipur, last May. At least 60 people were killed and 150 were wounded by a series of bombs that tore through the old city - highly popular to tourists.
Vipul Goyal and his twin brother Vibhor, who work in a textile shop in the Tripoliya Bazaar, say fear keeps many tourists away.
"Because of the blast most of the tourism has been affected," Vipul said. "Many tourists are scared of coming to Jaipur because the time the blasts took place (they) created fear in the minds of tourists to come to Jaipur - that is the main problem."
Official says lower prices could lure visitors back to India
Rajasthan's tourism authority is trying to lure visitors back. Anand K. Tripathi is an assistant director with the Department of Tourism. He says businesses and the government must cooperate, and suggests that hotels and airlines should review their rates.
"But since the tourism trade is mainly operated by private sector, I think a dialogue between the government and private sector would help evolve some strategy to counter this problem. We can find some solution to this to attract more and more tourists in the recession times," Tripathi said.
Rawat Brabhubrakash Singh owns the Amet Haveli heritage guest house on the banks of Lake Pichola. He remains optimistic over the outlook.
"The future is bright no doubt because Rajasthan is a place where tourists would like to come. We have everything here to present them," Singh said. "Every person is involved with history - some smaller or bigger - his blood is with history, you know so he can say he feels very proud if you ask him about his history."
Rajasthan's tourism authority, state government and tourism businesses are investing heavily in renovating the famed forts and palaces of the state's once mighty maharajas. In promoting new development as well as destinations, authorities hope a full recovery will come in the not too distant future.

Russia included Greece in the list of unfriendly countries on Friday due to its stance on the Russian invasion of Ukraine.
Moscow expanded the list of “unfriendly” states, also adding—apart from Greece—Denmark, Slovenia, Croatia, and Slovakia. Slovenia and Croatia were banned from hiring employees in their diplomatic missions and consular offices in Russia.
The government decree was adopted to implement the presidential decree on measures to influence “unfriendly” states dated April 23, 2021. The decree provides restrictions and even a potential complete ban for “unfriendly” countries in hiring employees for embassies, consulates, and representative government agencies from Russian locals.
The list also indicates how many individuals located in Russia the “unfriendly” diplomatic missions can hire. Greece has a limit of thirty-four people, Denmark of twenty, and Slovakia of sixteen. Slovenia and Croatia will be unable to hire employees in their diplomatic missions and consular offices.
The list of “unfriendly” states may be extended. It was approved on March 7th of this year.
Today the Russian government considers the following countries “unfriendly,” including Australia, Albania, Andorra, the United Kingdom (as well as Jersey), Anguilla, the British Virgin Islands, Gibraltar, all European Union Member States, Iceland, Canada, Liechtenstein, Micronesia, Monaco, New Zealand, Norway, South Korea, San Marino, North Macedonia, Singapore, the USA, Taiwan (China), Ukraine, Montenegro, Switzerland, and Japan.
Greece-Russia relations reach a new low
In June, Russia expelled eight Greek diplomats over the latter’s “confrontational course” towards Moscow.
In a statement, the Foreign Ministry said it summoned Greek Ambassador Ekaterini Nassika and expressed a decisive protest over the confrontational course of the Greek authorities towards Russia, part of which are arms deliveries to Ukraine and the expulsion of Russian diplomats from Greece.
“The ambassador was handed a note, notifying that as a response measure, eight Greek diplomats were declared ‘persona non grata,’” and they are required to leave Russia within eight days, the ministry said.
The move was in retaliation to the expulsion of twelve Russian diplomats from Athens.
In April, Russia’s Foreign Ministry warned Greece that relations between the two nations that “share the same faith” have been “reduced to almost nothing.”
Maria Zakharova, director of the Information and Press Department of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Russian Federation, warned in a statement released on social media that the “historical parallels” between Greece and Russia were in danger of becoming “a solid double line between us.”
The Russian official has previously alleged that there is an orchestrated defamation of Russia in Greece following the ongoing war in Ukraine.
“Senior officials in Athens find themselves making gross accusations against our country and its leadership,” Zakharova said.

Taurus Announces G3C Pistol
Updated: Jul 4, 2020
To provide longer wear resistance and better corrosion protection from environmental conditions, the G3c slide is treated with a proven Tenifer finish ‐ delivering more robust surface integrity to minimize scuffing and maximize corrosion resistance. In addition, all operational controls benefit from a black Teflon coating which provides corrosion and rust resistance as well as a reduced friction coefficient that offers smoother operation.
ERGONOMIC FRAME AND MAG
An ergonomic grip profile ‐ with its expertly contoured palm swell, highly textured grip panels, memory pads for precise, repeatable finger/hand placement, and sculpted extended base plate ‐ provides a glove‐like fit for most shooters' hands to better promote accuracy and firearm retention. For enhanced performance, scallops are included with the G3c magazine extension. These are designed to assist in tactical magazine changes should dust or grit prevent the magazine from dropping freely when depressing the mag release. The G3c comes standard with three 12‐round magazines or three 10‐round magazines. Fifteen‐ and 17‐round G3c magazines will also be available for customers who desire even higher capacity.
UPGRADED FLAT TRIGGER SYSTEM
Engineered for accuracy‐enhancing performance,the upgraded G3c trigger has an exceptionally crisp break to reduce shot disturbance and to help tighten groups. A redesigned flat trigger face concentrates finger pressure on the front of the shoe for a straighter pull while a shorter trigger reset delivers quicker follow‐up shots, reduces sight alignment disturbance, and minimizes the tendency to jerk the trigger.
SIGHTS AND MORE
Designed to withstand the rigors of everyday carry, the G3c comes standard with all‐steel front and rear sights. The rear sight is serrated to reduce glare and quicken sight picture acquisition, while drift adjustability allows the shooter to fine‐tune the point‐of‐impact. The rear sight dovetail is also cut to dimensions which accept the most common aftermarket fiber‐optic or tritium night sights available.
UPGRADED SLIDE DESIGN
Standard rear serrations are now accompanied by serrations at the front of the slide to provide a more tactile surface area for a more positive grip ‐ making slide manipulation and press checks easier regardless of operating style or hand size. A visual chamber indicator replaces the mechanical indicator found on the Taurus® G2c, reducing parts and streamlining the slide profile.
Inventory is on the way!! We expect our order to start rolling in towards the end of July. Call or email us today to pre-order yours as they will be pretty limited in the beginning. At a retail price of $305.74 we don't expect to be able to keep them in stock.
Don't wait til' it's too late!
Peace through Precision

South Mississippi legislators see the just-ended 2008 legislative session as a mixed bag of issues addressed and those not addressed as the area’s hurricane recovery continues. Those concerns continue to be the high cost of insurance, lack of affordable housing and the rebuilding of infrastructure. They, along with all other legislators, are prepared to return to Jackson for a special session to deal with unresolved Medicaid issues.
“We didn’t solve a lot of problems like the people we represent wanted to see, but we were successful with some things,” said Sen. Tommy Moffatt of Gautier.
Chief among those successes he lists additional monies for the state’s Wind Pool, the passage of some requirements to help the State Port and other places rebuild and added tax incentives to aid builders of affordable rental housing.
Moffatt, who represents South Pascagoula, Gautier and Ocean Springs, was not closely involved with the failed bill to allow tax incentives for non-gaming development by casinos.
“We had a pretty good bill going from the Coast, but there were add-ons from other parts of the state to limit where gaming can locate,” he said. “It got very confusing, and some who were for it even voted against it because of the confusion. It got caught up with the end of the session when a lot of strange things happen. Then, some will vote against casinos no matter what.”
Gaming bill bogs down
Rep. Dirk Dedeaux represents District 93, which includes parts of Hancock, Harrison, Pearl River, Stone, Forrest and Lamar counties. He says the casino development bill got bogged down in politics above his level.
“It didn’t get the same warmth in the Senate that it got in the House where it had support,” he said. “My first guess was that it was anti-gaming sentiment, but the more I’m up there I just don’t know. It will come up again next year.”
He and Moffatt doubt the casino proposal will be on the special session agenda, which can only be determined by the governor.
Dedeaux is concerned about storm recovery and his constituents still living in trailers and Katrina cottages. “There were funds set aside to match some federal government recovery funds, which were forgiven,” he said. “I wanted to see those funds go toward Katrina relief, but most of it went into the general budget. The cost of insurance is a big issue on my mind, and it will continue to be.”
Sen. Tom King of Petal represents parts of Forest, Lamar and Perry counties where the diversified and rapidly-growing communities are interested in education, medical issues, military affairs and transportation. He serves as chairman of the Senate Highways and Transportation Committee.
“My committee failed to get more money for highway and bridge construction,” he said. “We’ve got the governor’s pledge to help next year. We’ll think outside the box and may use some private funding.”
King is dismayed that Medicaid funding was not passed. “It’s a shame we didn’t solve this issue. It affects 600,000 people, a lot of whom are elderly, and we’ve got to go back and deal with it,” he said.
He was, however, pleased that for the first time in a non-election year the Mississippi Adequate Education Program was fully funded. “We also got bonding and funding for restoration and renovation at the University of Southern Mississippi,” he said. “I feel positive for our education community even though we need to do more for the Institutions of Higher Learning and the community colleges. We did a good job with the funds we have.”
Checks and balances?
Rep. Mark Formby of Picayune thinks the session went well, although he observes two totally different philosophical majorities in the House and the Senate. “It makes it frustrating. but creates a system of checks and balances,” he said. “The biggest thing we dealt with was the budget in a year of projections of shortfalls. We put more funds into education and I think people appreciate that.”
There are transportation issues in his fast-growing Pearl River County area, too. Formby and others are working with the Mississippi Department of Transportation and the federal government to re-route traffic around Picayune’s downtown.
He expects the special session to come in mid-June when the two legislative bodies will again bump into those philosophical differences. “The question is where are we going to get $90 million for Medicaid?” he wonders. “Some legislators would like to go into the system and eliminate abuse. It’s estimated to be 2%, and 2% of $5 billion would be significant.”

Lisbon – Another Goodbye
Another Lisbon Fashion Week has come and gone, and I’m sad to say gooood bye to this beautiful city. The weather was absolutely beautiful for the entire duration of our stay! One of the great advantages of travelling is that by seeing different places I discover many different ways of life, which I appreciate and I can always apply some trends into my own lifestyle.
I returned to Germany feeling inspired by incredibly beautiful new collections for Spring/Summer 2017!
I’ve been back in Germany since two day now, and I already miss Lisbon so…so much! I miss the warm, clear blue sky and the sun. What’s more – I already miss the kindness and openness of people. I’m always amazed by people who have a such positive energy!
Here I would like to share with you guys some photos from Lisbon.
This time it was definitely very strange feeling to come back to Germany and to cold weather (only 10 degree Celsius).
Come to Portugal and you’ll be surprised by some kind of unique atmosphere, which I love so much!
Can’t wait to share with you more photos, especially from runways!!
Love you guys!
Until next time,
