Society is Playing Cat and Mouse with Blacks and The American Dream
For those of you who follow this blog, you know that every once in awhile I take a break to take on race in this country. There is no better time than now, to do this again. I wrote this during the Furgeson riots and it's clear nothing has changed. So, I thought I would share it again with a few changes.
Considering what's happening in this country, I wanted to break down for all ya'll why the riots and BLM and Devin Chauvin, and Amy Cooper and, and, and, are happening, because as much as you'd like to think you know, you don't. You have no clue. This goes for black folks as well. As a society, although the information is available to us, it's never been put in front of us in this fashion, so I'm going to break it down for everyone, black folks, and white folks.
Before I do, let me make something clear. I do NOT condone, support or agree with any of the violent protesting, looting, and bullshit that's happening around the country. My message to my brothers and sisters, cut it out. We look like fools. With that said, I understand and empathize with the anger and frustration of the black community. I feel it too. I challenge my white friends who are complaining and bitching about the rioting and looting to stop and take in the wisdom I'm about to drop. As much as you'd like to think this is "simple." It's not. It's very complex.
The reason the riots, looting, demonstrating and BLM is happening is because society is playing cat and mouse with blacks and the American Dream.
I know, you're asking yourself, what the fuck does that mean? So, let me spell it out. Stay with me, this gets heavy.
Success in America is and has always been predicated on three very powerful elements, the American Dream, Choice, and Identity.
First is the American Dream.
All immigrants to this country and their decedents have leveraged a belief in the American Dream to be successful. It has been a cornerstone of their success. Immigrants and their families leveraged a powerful belief and uniquely American concept to build the greatest country on earth and further their lives. Every immigrant who came to this country came here with the belief that they could make a better life here than they could where they came from. They believed and bought into the American Dream before they ever stepped foot into this country. The belief in the American Dream is what propelled them to make the trek across the Pacific or the Atlantic Oceans or to cross the border from the south. It was the belief that America welcomed anyone and everyone with streets paved with gold.
This "dream" drove millions and millions of immigrants to the streets of the U.S. in search of a better life. It is the "belief" in this idea that if you work your ass off and try that you can rise up and be anything you want. We all know that the reality of the American Dream was not as rosy as the stories. There were ghettos, racism (against Jews, Italians, Irish, Mexicans, Germans, etc), corrupt corporations exploiting workers (lack of unions and labor laws) and more, but in spite of all the hardship, for most immigrants, it was better than their homeland AND they believed that if they kept forging forward, if not for them, for their children they could build a better life. They could get ahead. This vision called the American Dream was and still is a very powerful motivator for immigration and at the core of success in this country. There is NO success in America without it.
It's the presence of the belief in the American dream that is at the core of all immigrants' success in this country. The American Dream is such a powerful vision and motivator of success we still leverage it today, passing it on to our children in school and home. Phrases like; "You can be anything you want to be when you grow up." And "If you work hard, get an education, you can do anything." These messages are at the center of the American lexicon and America's growth as a nation.
Second is choice: Because of the American Dream, people from around the world "chose" to come to this country. Choice is the second element of success in America. Immigrants chose the hardships; they chose the struggles, they chose the difficulties because they believed it would be worth it in the end. They chose to come to America and suffer whatever cards were dealt because they believed whatever difficulties they would encounter, America was better than staying in their home country. They believed America would give them a chance if they worked hard enough. Millions of other people didn't choose to come to America for whatever reason, they chose not to put in the work, uproot their families, or suffer. The chose NOT to immigrate. But for those who believed in America and the American Dream, they chose to come here, and that choice can not be underestimated in the success of immigrants.
Third is Identity: This leads to the third element of success in America, identity. The one thing almost every immigrant who came to American brought with them was their Bible, their Torah, etc. Most immigrants who left their home country brought with them a piece of who they were. They brought their culture, their history, their food, and their beliefs. They brought their identity and like the American Dream, they leveraged this identity to pull them through the hard times. They prayed to their gods. They told their stories. They practiced their rituals. They leveraged their families. They connected with others from the same country in order to persevere. When things became tough, they leveraged their identity and sense of self to push through. Many immigrants learned the language and assimilated, but very few of the early generations abandoned their heritage and identity. On the contrary, they leveraged it to be successful. They integrated where they came from, into their new life. As generations passed and each generation moved further from their immigrant parents, heritage and identity became of less importance, but in the earlier generations, they were paramount to success.
With the American Dream, choice and identity being at the core of success in America, it is quickly becoming obvious why Black Americans' have not achieved the same level of success in this country as all other groups, including other "blacks" who have immigrated from other countries. The American Dream was not part of their life. It was NOT something they passed from generation to generation, quite the contrary. The message blacks perpetuated from generation to generation, as told and reinforced by America is; the American Dream is NOT for you. Don't even try!
There are only two groups of people in this country who lack " immigrant status." They are blacks from the slave trade and Native Americans. Neither one of these groups chose to come here embracing the American Dream. In addition, both had their way of life and culture stripped from them. Although I am fairly familiar with the plight of Native Americans, I don't believe I'm qualified to speak to their situation, so I'm not going to. However, it is important to note that their circumstances are similar as it relates to this thesis, and their lack of success in America is similar to that of blacks.
Blacks (I use the term blacks deliberately because Africa is a continent, void of a single cultural identity, and very few descendants of slaves know where they came from in Africa) didn't choose to come to America. They were brought here as slaves. The American Dream or choice was never instilled into blacks or part of their American experience. On the contrary, they were sent an entirely different message for 350 years. The message, The American Dream is not for you.
For 250 years blacks from Africa were stripped of their languages, their religions, their rituals, and any and every other thing that identified them as people. They weren't considered humans and were told and treated this way for over 25 generations. Bought and sold, families were constantly ripped apart; children and spouses commonly sold 100's if not a 1,000 miles away from one another. They were forced to procreate like animals in the interest of producing better workers. They were separated into good and bad blacks, field niggers and house niggers, pitting them against each other. This system, lasting 250 years, is one of the world's greatest human atrocities as it created, for lack of a better term, a new race of people. America has done what no other society has done to my knowledge; they literally and physically created a new race or culture of people. Stop and think about that for a minute. Black Americans, African Americans or whatever you want to call us were socially engineered, created from a system designed to exploit them for the bigger and broader benefit of others simply because of the color of their skin.
After 250 years of slavery, blacks suffered another 100 years of oppression and humiliation at the hands of Jim Crowe and Plessey v Furgeson (separate but equal). In essence, for 350 years, it was reinforced that the American Dream did not apply to blacks. The system was established to systematically deny the American Dream to blacks by its citizens and the American institutions equally. The American Dream has no place for blacks, has been a central theme of America for almost it's entire existence.
Lacking immigrant status, blacks from the slave trade have lacked the key elements for success in this country; 1) belief in the American Dream, 2) choice, and 3) a cultural identity. Blacks didn't choose to come here. They didn't choose to give up their language, their homes, and their homeland for a better life. They were violently ripped from their homes and then literally chained up for 25 plus generations. In addition, their identity, language, and their sense of self and pride were systematically stripped from them. They were hollowed out as people. Slave owners understood the power of identity and culture in creating strength and hope and therefore were extremely deliberate in eradicating anything that would or could allow blacks to persevere in any environment other than complete and utter servitude.
This is why blacks in America don't perform as well as Togo's, Nigerians, Liberians, etc. who come to this country today as immigrants. It's also why blacks haven't been as successful as other immigrants (Germans, Irish, Jews, Italians, Chinese, Japanese, Vietnamese etc), THEY WERE NEVER IMMIGRANTS. They didn't choose to come here. They didn't have their cultural identity to leverage for strength, and they spent 350 years being told the American Dream didn't apply to them.
Fast-forward to today and what you have is a population of people socially engineered (man, that's hard to say) as servants for 250 years, then forcibly and emotionally forced to society's edge as undesirables for 100 additional years only now to be expected to have their shit together. The question then becomes, what will it take for blacks to believe the American Dream does include them? What will allow them to chose to "immigrate" here and not feel like a hostage? By immigrate, I mean emotionally. Yes, they are here. But too many don't feel wanted. Thus the argument of two Americas. What will it take for more blacks to put 350 years of messages reinforcing the fact that they are not wanted here and that the American Dream is not for them behind them? This is what we are fighting today. This is at the core of today's challenges.
Blacks are being asked to get their shit together, and I'm one of the people saying we need to. We are being compared to other groups who successfully assimilated to this country under entirely different circumstances and that's not fair. We're being asked to "immigrate" after the fact. When choice was denied after we were told the American Dream wasn't for us, after our identity, and culture was torn away. This is a monumental task. One too many people underestimate and rarely respect. It's like a wound trying to heal without a bandage. Every little thing aggravates it, at times making it worse through infection. Healing like this takes time and lots of attention. Healing an open wound is a delicate process.
Every police shooting of an unarmed black man, every racist comment from an NBA team owner, every time a man is dragged behind a truck by white men, every time a father tells his daughter she can't date a black guy, every time a black person is profiled or pulled over because they are black, every time a black person receives a harsher sentence than a white, every time an Amy Cooper uses color to call the police, it's a reminder or a suggestion that American Dream STILL is not for blacks.
This is why blacks have not succeeded as well as all other groups in this country (with the exception of Native Americans). This is why the riots, the protests, the looting, and BLM and the rest happens. It's because we've been denied the very things that are required to make it in America; choice, a belief in the American Dream and a sense of pride that comes from one's identity and culture (Over the centuries, we have carved out our own unique Black Culture. I am not saying we don't have one, but that is a more complicated discussion to be had a different time).
The George Floyd murder by a policeman is aggravating the wound. It feels like same messages of the past, the messages telling Blacks, you're not welcome. The riots, and looting and protests are happening because too many blacks have not chosen to immigrate to this country. The past two weeks are happening because too many blacks are in many ways still searching for an identity. What is our " culture?" Who are we? Ferguson is happening because too many blacks don't believe in the American Dream, and every "perceived" racial injustice reinforces what they've been told for 350 years, the American Dream is NOT for you.
Until the three key elements of immigrants to this country can be instilled in the black community, nothing is going to change. Until blacks buy into the American Dream, nothing is going to change. Until blacks choose to emotionally immigrate to this country and believe they can create a better life by doing so, nothing is going to change. Until blacks can find and embrace what it means to be "black" in America and who we are and what our culture is, nothing is going to change. Until white Americans accept the impact of their systematic deconstruction of a race of people and the impact it has on the subsequent generations, nothing is gonna change. Until white people accept racism exists and openly and aggressively fight to eradicate systematic racism, nothing is going to change. As long as white people tacitly or openly condone racism and support the system(s) that maintain the inequities and injustice nothing is going to change. Until white people stop defending themselves and stop denying racism is an issue in this country, nothing is going to change. Until white people AND black people change, nothing is going to happen.
How we got here is unprecedented. George Floyed, Amy Cooper and Ahmed Arbury aren't isolated racial incidents. They are the legacy of 350 years of people living without the American Dream. Somehow, someway, blacks have to find a way to embrace the American Dream, AND whites must find a way to convince blacks the American Dream is real for them too. If we don't there will be another more looting in the street.

Blackmore's New Flagship Store – Now There's a Model for Pharmacy!
Now here is a new concept that all pharmacists should find very close to home. Retail design for a Blackmores flagship shop. Eighty percent of Blackmores' sales are derived from within Australian pharmacy so you should be interested. And the concept might feel familiar to you because nearly every aspect of their system, store layout and design features has been written about in i2P in some article in our archives. Do the search yourself - but do visit the Blackmores store to gain insights for your own benefit.
Posted on January 25, 2016 by Mark Coleman in Branding Issues, Clinical Services, Clinical Spaces, Community Initiative, complementary Medicine, Creativity, Culture, Design, Drone Technology, Functional Medicine, Health Promotion, Information Technology, Leadership, Marketing, Opinion, Patient Care, Patient Engagement, Personalised Health, Pharmacy Design, Professional Development, Quality Service, Retailing, Self-Care // 0 Comments
Blackmores have designed and opened an innovative flagship store that offers the complete wellbeing experience, with rooms for private consultations with qualified naturopaths, a modern 'Mindful Ocean' system to assess mindfulness, the Wellbeing Bar for food and drink tasting as well as offering the comprehensive Blackmores' product range.
Located on Level 5 of Westfield, Bondi Junction, the appearance of the store is the result of some thoughtful design work with the result being an elegant, interactive client experience supporting the concept of a health destination store.
There is much thought gone into the store presentation – a design and layout that pharmacy could learn from, particularly the way naturopaths provide their clinical services integrated with the efficient layout.
CEO, Ms Holgate, said the new store is not about building a retail presence across Australia but is intended to help connect with Blackmores' customers.
"We are not going to become retailers, we partner with pharmacy.
Around 80 per cent of our products are sold through pharmacy in Australia and they give fantastic advice," she said.
"What this allows to do is to bring our products and our therapies much closer to the consumer and enables us to listen to the consumer and better understand their health needs."
Blackmores new flagship store viewed from the front entrance.
Mr David Fenlon, Managing Director, Blackmores Australia and New Zealand said:
"As the most trusted name in vitamin and supplements, Blackmores aim to provide evidence-based information about natural health care to our consumers."
"Our new flagship store provides a personalised experience for our customers to take control of and further invest in their health.
We know there is a lot of confusing information out there which is why we want to personally help Australians on their journey to wellbeing through advice and education."
"Featuring human, digital and tactile experiences the new flagship store is a unique prototype that takes retail into a new health space, offering the next-gen of interactive retailing whereby consumers are treated to an integrated offering of service and product."
One of the hero features of the flagship store is the 'Mindful Ocean', designed in consultation with scientists at Swinburne University of Technology.
Using sensors that detect brain activity, the 'Mindful Ocean' provides a four-minute personalised session showcasing how the mind interacts between levels of relaxation and calm verses active thinking.
"The 'Mindful Ocean' gives consumers the opportunity to assess their ability to find mindfulness, and as a result, begin to take control of their cognitive wellbeing," Mr Fenlon said.
The Blackmores Flagship Store will also feature zones for personalised conversations and advice, including an interactive B Bottle activation with weekly wellbeing questions for customers to physically answer.
Additionally, there is a Wellbeing Bar for customers to sample food products, starting with the newly launched Blackmores' Superfoods range.
The store will be staffed by qualified naturopaths and will provide an opportunity for customers to seek evidence based information, and book a 20 or 45 minute private consultation. The store layout is changeable and can also be used for health seminars, workshops and small yoga classes.
This feature is something that pharmacy is yet to include within its own environment, and certainly will feature in a new paradigm pharmacy, slowly evolving (about 35 years too late according to i2P research).
In the past six months Blackmores has increased it production capacity by 60 per cent.
The company has hired 100 extra people but has now run out of office space.
In November, which Mr Blackmore believes was "probably a record month", Blackmores produced 2.7 million bottles of product.
It will have capacity to produce 4.2 million bottles a month in April next year.
"The things that keep me awake at night are: availability of raw materials, availability of raw materials, and availability of raw materials," Ms Holgate said.
In some product lines there is a natural brake on boosting production immediately.
For example, evening primrose oil, a market dominated by Blackmores, comes from a plant harvested once a year.
In other cases Blackmores is constrained by its strict quality criteria.
Ms Holgate is loath to put the brand name at risk by compromising even slightly on quality.
"I'm sure I could give you a lot more sales, but not at the quality levels we want," she said.
Last month Blackmores inked a joint-venture deal with dairy group Bega Cheese to supply infant formula and other nutritional products to Asia, opening a range of new opportunities for both companies.
Ms Holgate said the company actually uses a dairy rival, New Zealand's Fonterra, as a case study for an internal quality workshop.
Fonterra has been embroiled in a number of dairy food scandals including the 2009 melamine crisis in China and the false botulism alert, which prompted a massive product recall, in 2013.
Companies like Blackmores, Telstra and Microsoft are tapping into what Apple has known all along is the key to earning consumer dollars.
i2P has often published articles on the Apple genius bar emulating the old style pharmacy glass counter used for "counter prescribing, and updated by Lloydspharmacy in the UK with its "health bar" pharmacist and clinical station in the front of each pharmacy, fully separated from the dispensary
All three companies have just launched flagship stores, and with finely tuned gimmicks like free smoothies, health assessments and in-store baristas, they are turning to "outreach" in formation services in a serious way.
If industry experts are to be believed, we can expect even more outlandish offerings as retailers try to outdo each other in the retail destination stakes.
The Pharmaceutical Society of Australia (PSA) is launching an extension of its "health destination pharmacy" in early February, but I don't think that it will run to coffee or smoothies just yet.
However, I would recommend that they visit the Blackmores' store and the Telstra store for ideas on expanding the future vision for a health destination pharmacy.
They are heading in the right direction, but do need a little extra help to get there.
Blackmores Managing Director David Fenlon said the store was a prototype that aimed to provide "a personalised experience" for customers to take control of their health.
Doesn't this sound like "Pharmacy Self Care" – a concept that has been trickling along for as long as I can remember!
The Australian Self-Medication Industry (ASMI) association is trying to reboot the concept, but it needs pharmacy support. There are some dangers in self care and they are discussed in the bottom third of an article within this edition. Go to: Seth Godin Clarity – as applied to pharmacy
But do set up your own unique version, because as Blackmores claim to customer connection appears valid, it has already demonstrated that it can beat pharmacy self care in a blink.
Featuring "human, digital and tactile experiences", David Fenlon said, the store was an example of "next-gen" interactive retailing.
The Blackmores launch came on the back of Telstra's $112 million flagship store opening in Sydney's CBD in October 2015, billed as a "discovery hub" as opposed to a humble shop.
Also described as a prototype — to be rolled out across the country next year — it aims to take a bite of Apple's retail mastery.
It's here that you'll find an in-store barista to caffeinate your shopping mission, and a chance to test-drive drones, smartphone and tablets.
i2P has written material for all of the above concepts to be incorporated into pharmacies (even coffee shop-type waiting area designs), but pharmacy leaders have been very slow to react.
By the time they do, all this will be "old technology"unless community pharmacy owners begin their own renewal processes to start the charge into innovative ideas – a "bottom-up approach", rather than a "top-down" and very slow approach.
Hundreds of thousands of customers are expected to walk through the doors of the Telstra flagship store, to check out gimmicks like its "touch-and-take" technology.
i2P has previously written about a flagship pharmacy, but we called it a training pharmacy.
Now wouldn't that be a great investment for the pharmaceutical industry to support!
PSA could have its own pharmacy to document and apply research in a very streamlined fashion.
The Telstra hub has on display high resolution, multi-touch display tables allow customers to compare all the information about each product, simply by placing them onto the table, with the data then printed for future reference.
i2P has also written about "touch tables" for incorporation in a clinical space to enable interaction between a clinical pharmacist and a patient.
Microsoft followed with a 557 square-metre flagship store of its own, launched in Sydney last month on the back of its New York City prototype.
With free Wi-Fi, a community theatre and meeting spaces, and plans to host hackathons and coding workshops, it's no surprise that the company has poached former Apple's senior store manager Nick Wells to run the new outlet.
There's even a tech bar where you can bring your Apple MacBook to fix Windows installations like Word, free of charge.
And Microsoft's full range of products can be purchased, debugged or repaired in store, including removing that pesky bloatware that Windows runs on its notepads.
It's no wonder the writers of i2P exhibit frustration because of the lack of imagination by pharmacy leaders and pharmacy proprietors.
We claim to "live in the future" at i2P and Blackmores, Telstra and Microsoft has just validated much of our thinking of the past 12-15 years.
But there is now enough information out there to design your own new paradigm community pharmacy.

Legends of Buying and selling: The Story of Jesse Livermore
Jesse Livermore is without doubt one of the most fascinating buying and selling legends in historical past. His rise from humble beginnings to the height of buying and selling success and his a number of bankruptcies and ultimate ending has fascinated individuals from his personal time till right this moment.
In his teachings we are able to be taught what to do within the markets to make a fortune and in his private story we are able to additionally be taught what to not do in buying and selling and in life. His story is so fascinating and motion packed it will make an excellent film. Let's have a look.
Jesse Livermore Life Story
Initially born on a farm, his father wished him to comply with in his steps and be a farmer, his mom helped him get sufficient cash to maneuver away at a younger age.
His old flame was math and he loved doing math issues and arithmetic.
His first job was working at Paine-Webber and itemizing inventory costs on the board within the workplace. He stored his personal log of worth motion and began to note patterns within the strikes.
In his youth Jesse was know because the "Boy Plunger" as a result of he regarded youthful than his years and he would take massive positions when he traded towards the bucket retailers of his day. The bucket retailers let merchants guess on a inventory worth, however no commerce was executed, the home lined if you happen to have been proper.
How good was he? He was banned from the bucket retailers one after the other, it was like getting kicked out of a on line casino since you beat the home so badly with outsized features.
He went on to New York to commerce in shares and commodities and did very properly turning into a millionaire many instances. Sadly he additionally went bust many instances. After a number of massive early setbacks he lastly caught to his system and maintained his wealth for a few years.
Livermore was married thrice and had two youngsters. He married his first spouse, Nettie Jordan on the age of 23 in 1900. Lower than a yr later, he went broke after some dangerous trades; for a brand new buying and selling account, he requested her to pawn the massive assortment of jewellery he had purchased her, however she refused, hurting their relationship. They separated quickly thereafter and eventually divorced in October 1917. [1]
In 1918, at 40 years outdated, Livermore married 23-year-old Dorothy Wendt, a former Ziegfeld woman in Ziegfeld Follies. Livermore had affairs with a number of of the dancers. That they had two sons: Jesse Livermore Jr., born in 1919 and Paul, born in 1922.He purchased them a big home in Nice Neck and let his spouse spend as a lot as she wished on the furnishings. In 1927, two burglars broke into the Livermore's dwelling and held him and his spouse at gunpoint.[2]
He made his largest cash available in the market crashes, taking brief positions earlier than the 1906 San Francisco earthquake, and each the inventory market crashes of 1907 and 1929, it's mentioned that J.P. Morgan himself despatched phrase asking for Jesse to please give up shorting shares in 1907. In 1929 the day of one of many largest market meltdowns he returned dwelling and his spouse was scared that he had misplaced all the pieces, he stunned her by making the most important cash of his buying and selling profession. He ended up with the nickname "The Nice Bear of Wall Avenue" due to his shorting exercise.
When Black Tuesday hit on October 29, 1929 and the market crashed, Livermore made $100 million going brief. (That is equal to $1.7 billion inflation adjusted).
At one time, Livermore was one of many richest individuals on this planet. [3]
Livermore's relationship turned strained by Dorothy's consuming habits, Livermore's affairs with different Ziegfeld ladies, and their spending habits. In 1931, Dorothy Livermore filed for divorce and moved to Reno, Nevada, along with her new lover, James Longcope. In 1932, the divorce was granted and he or she instantly married her boyfriend. She retained custody of their two sons and acquired a $10 million settlement. Dorothy offered the home in Nice Neck, on which Livermore spent $3.5 million, for $222,000. The home was then torn down, miserable Livermore.
Jesse Livermore Sr. didn't attend Jesse Livermore Jr.'s marriage ceremony however as a gift purchased his son a Connecticut Pepsi-Cola franchise. The younger man couldn't deal with the duty of the Pepsi-Cola franchise and offered it to keep away from chapter. [4] His son Jesse Livermore Jr. gave him a grandson named Jesse Livermore III.
In March 28, 1933, at 56, Livermore married 38-year-old singer and socialite Harriet Metz Noble in Illinois. That they had met in 1931 in Vienna, the place she was performing and Livermore was within the viewers on trip. His third spouse was from a distinguished Omaha household that had made a fortune in breweries. Livermore was Harriet's fifth husband; at the least two of Metz's earlier husbands had dedicated suicide, together with Warren Noble, who hanged himself after the Wall Avenue Crash of 1929.
"A inventory operator has to combat a number of costly enemies inside himself."
– Jesse Livermore
Jesse Livermore was a pioneer within the buying and selling world. He was one of many very first development merchants, rule based mostly discretionary merchants, and merchants of pure worth motion. He was a path blazer. It was not his methodology that was his undoing, it was different brief comings. After studying books concerning the lifetime of this buying and selling legend alongside together with his personal, listed here are my eight observations that I consider was his final undoing.
Letting losers run: Many instances he didn't reduce his losses. "I did exactly the fallacious factor. The cotton confirmed me a loss and I stored it. The wheat confirmed me a revenue and I offered it out. Of all of the speculative blunders there are few better than attempting to common a dropping sport. All the time promote what reveals you a loss and hold what reveals you a revenue." – Jesse Livermore
Over Buying and selling: "What beat me was not having brains sufficient to stay to my very own sport – that's, to play the market solely once I was glad that precedents favored my play." – Jesse Livermore
Following suggestions: "Progressively, as I started to just accept his details and figures, I started to concern I had been basing my earlier place on misinformation. In fact I couldn't really feel that manner and never cowl. And as soon as I had lined as a result of Thomas made me assume I used to be fallacious, I merely needed to go lengthy. It's the manner my thoughts works." "It price me tens of millions to be taught that one other harmful enemy to a dealer is his susceptibility to the urgings of a magnetic character when plausibly expressed by a superb thoughts." – Jesse Livermore
Danger of damage: From the amount of his account blow ups and private bankruptcies it seems that he didn't perceive the mathematical danger of damage based mostly on successful share and the lack of capital per commerce.
Place sizing: The sheer dimension of his astounding wins at key instances reveals that he didn't actually have a place sizing mannequin to restrict his publicity to danger, he was probably all in with leverage on his largest wins. Which ends up in inevitable account blow ups.
Self-discipline: In his writings he appears to all the time trace that he had hassle following his personal guidelines and recommendation and misplaced cash when he didn't comply with his personal plan.
Lavish way of life: Livermore spent cash lavishly on his way of life with mansions, holidays, and the very best issues cash may purchase. He had no quantity that allowed him to ever actually retire and luxuriate in his wealth. He continued to commerce with full dimension and aggressively by way of his profession.
Psychological danger of damage: In the long run, for no matter cause he ended his life. The stress and pressure of buying and selling far too massive a place sizes, his spending downside residing so lavishly placing stress on his funds, and his private love life most likely took its toll.
On November 28, 1940, simply after 5:30 pm, Livermore fatally shot himself with an Computerized Colt Pistol within the cloakroom of The Sherry-Netherland lodge in Manhattan, the place he often had cocktails.

The natures of radiation-induced defects and defect generation processes in optical glasses are critically reviewed. Materials of interest here include silica, silicates, and fluorides, hence encompassing glasses now in use or contemplated for fiber optics, lenses, mirrors, windows, and other optical applications. The most extensive discussions are devoted to pure fused silica because of its wide application and extensive literature and its value as a simple prototype for beginning to understand more complex systems. Emphasis is placed on the atomic scale structure of point defects, as gleaned mainly from the technique of electron spin resonance, although such important properties as optical absorption, luminescence, and volume change are also discussed.

Andrea's World Reviews: Chooka Boots Blogiversary GIVEAWAY!!
I don't know that I have ever been this jealous of another human being.
I totally love my girl Alison from The Rosy Snail, but her Blogiversary is bumming me out. I feel so miniscule by comparison.
This review and giveaway, is incredible.
I adore boots. They are probably my favorite thing in the world(for myself, of course my family comes first). If I was shopping for myself, and I could afford it, I'd buy hundreds of pairs.
But as great as being fashionable is, as a mommy, you need to be comfortable and functional.
With all the rain in Florida, you either wear rain boots or have soggy feet. I have been dying for a pair of Chooka Boots, because they combat the rain and look adorable doing it.
I am dying for a pair, but YOU could win one by reading Alison's review and entering below. Good luck.
Being that I'm in Texas and Big Hair rules, a rainy, cloudy day can easily stop fashion and beauty in it's tracks. Nothing is worse than spending so much time on your face and hair only to have the muggy weather flatten your look in a matter of minutes. I'd avoid going outside when it's rainy as much as possible, then I got a pair of Chooka boots and suddenly a bun and some light makeup didn't seem like such a bad idea!
Chooka Boots are where Fashion meets Function. As a year round flip flop wearer, I'd never owned a pair of rainboots this nice. There was just never a reason to invest. Now that I have these, I want more! These boots are perfect for rainy weather, gardening and yard work or even other outdoor chores that might include water like washing the car or power washing (which is secretly something I love to do!). They're cute, comfortable and did I mention cute?!
I received the Chooka Top Solid Mid in Mint. I soon found out that this specific boot has been VERY popular. In fact, these are the #1 seller of the entire Chooka Boots line. I can't say I'm surprised. This color is everywhere and with a mid-calf height, this boot is perfect for jeans or shorts and will keep your feet protected but not too hot in the Spring and Summer months. This boot also has adorable genuine leather straps that add a touch more sophistication to the overall look with these!
These boots have a comfy Moisture-absorbent cotton lining and are 100% waterproof. If you're looking for extra padding or more warmth, Chooka also sells Fleece Liners in 4 colors: Cream, Charcoal, Magenta and Black. I think once it gets colder, I'll invest in a Cream pair to go with these boots! All boots and liners can be found at Nordstrom and their online store.
I've loved pairing these with skinny jeans and a light scarf while it's been the rainy season, but I think I'll find ANY excuse to wear these! They're easy to pull off and I can match my turquoise colors accessories to tie them into almost any outfit!
Chooka Boots carries a large variety of boots in different heights, styles and colors. No matter what you're looking for, their sure to have something to fit your style. Chooka books come in whole sizes 6-10, but in a few styles you can get 5 and 11′s as well!
Chooka Boots was generous enough to send me these fabulous boots to review but they're also giving a part away to one lucky reader! Enter below to win your own pair of Mid-Height Rain Boots in your choice of color! Enter below to win!
I like wearing them when I go camping and when it's raining of course.
I love rain boots in the spring. We get loads of rain and even when it isn't raining you'll need them for the soggy yards.
I wear rain boots during spring and sometimes in my garden.
For puddle jumping with the kids!
Nothing is as uncomfortable as furthest points in climate, particularly when they are too low. For hunters, frosty climate can truly lessen their fortunes on the off chance that they aren't very much arranged for the season. Warmth is compulsory if at all you need to build your fortunes amid this period. How pitiful it would be for you to disregard the MuckBoots Men's Arctic Pro Hunting Boot: boots connected with warmth, solace, and accommodation amongst others.

What is the European Day of Speech and Language Therapy (SLT)?
In 2004, CPLOL (Standing Liaison Committee of European Speech and Language Therapists and Logopedists) created European day to increase awareness of the SLT profession throughout Europe. It is essential to develop public awareness about communication and feeding, eating, drinking, and swallowing (FEDS) disorders, their effect on human health, the rights of patients with these disorders, and ways to help them. The message of European Day is that the prevention and management of communication and FEDS disorders may gain by sharing knowledge and experience throughout Europe. With that in mind, one theme is proposed each year, and where possible, a common slogan and shared materials are used.
What are the benefits of celebrating European Day?

Lung transplant recipient populations evolve with advances in medical therapies
Pulmonology and Critical Care Medicine|Transplant Services
Cystic fibrosis (CF) and pulmonary hypertension (PH) were once common categories for referral to lung transplant. However, advances in medical therapies have allowed many patients with these diseases to avoid transplant. Today, at most transplant centers throughout the world, lung transplants are being performed on increasingly older patients, primarily with interstitial lung disease (ILD) followed by chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Unlike CF and PH, few treatments with the ability to extend survival currently exist for ILD, specifically idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF), and COPD. When these patients continue to decline despite maximized medical therapy, surgical options may be indicated.
Pulmonary hypertension requires early diagnosis and aggressive treatment
Pulmonology and Critical Care Medicine
The understanding of pulmonary hypertension (PH) continues to evolve. The threshold to diagnose PH was lowered to mPAP ≥ 20 mmHg in the 6th World Symposium on PH in 2018. The therapeutic approach has also changed over time, favoring aggressive use of multiple pulmonary vasodilators in combination upfront and escalation of therapy based frequent assessment of disease progression. The changes to diagnostic criteria and management underscore the need to identify the disease early and to treat it aggressively.
Interstitial lung disease program focuses on comprehensive, individualized patient care
Baylor Scott & White All Saints Medical Center – Fort Worth|Baylor University Medical Center|Pulmonology and Critical Care Medicine
Interstitial lung disease or diffuse parenchymal lung disease comprises a large group of more than 150 heterogeneous disorders. As a result, patients with these disorders are a difficult group to treat because many of the therapies are individualized to each patient. The Interstitial Lung Disease Clinic at Baylor University Medical Center, part of Baylor Scott & White Health, provides comprehensive care to patients with ILD.
Clinical trials aim to improve lung transplant and post-op patient care
Baylor University Medical Center|Pulmonology and Critical Care Medicine|Transplant Services
Baylor University Medical Center is one of the major enrollment centers for two national clinical trials that could impact the field of lung transplantation. Both studies are looking at ways to treat early and established chronic rejection after lung transplant

Cricket: Three South African players in isolation
A South Africa cricketer has tested positive for Covid-19 and two other players who have been in close contact with him are now in isolation just over a week before the start of limited-overs series against England.
All three players are asymptomatic, but they are being monitored by medical staff.
Recent tests carried out on around 50 players and staff by Cricket South Africa (CSA) found the one positive result.
- T20 matches -
The 'Proteas' face England in the first of three T20 matches in Cape Town on 27th November.
The teams will then play a three-match ODI (One-Day International) series from 4th December.
England trained in Cape Town on Wednesday in preparation for their upcoming Twenty20 and ODI (One-Day International) series against South Africa.
The teams will play the first T20 at Newlands Cricket Ground on 27th November before heading to Paarl to play a second match at Boland Park two days later.
- The conclusion of the series -
The series then returns to Newlands for the third and final T20 on 1st December.
A three-match ODI series will get underway in Cape Town on 4th December, with Paarl hosting the second match on the 6th before the teams go back to Cape Town for the conclusion of the series on the 9th.
They will be the first international series played in South Africa since the country went into Covid-19 lockdown in March, and the first time the 'Proteas' have played for over eight months.
England won the Test and T20 series on their 2019-20 tour to South Africa, while the three-match ODI series was drawn.

Panama adopted this flag in 1925. It was designed by Maria Ossa de Amador and emphasized the political situation of the time. The stars and quarters represent rival political parties and white symbolizes the peace in which they operate. Blue is the color of the Conservatives and red represents the Liberals. The blue star stands for purity and honesty and the red star symbolizes authority and law; together, the stars represent the new republic.

Per Policy JFB, each student shall be assigned to an attendance zone school based on the student's legal address. A student wishing to enroll at a school other than his or her attendance zone school may apply to another school through School Choice (per JFB-R2) or they may be placed as a Magnet Pipeline student per JFB-R3.
The following provides procedures for some special circumstances related to Policy JFB.
Change of Residence
Students, including nonresident students, who are currently enrolled at a school and remain enrolled to the end of the school year, even if they move out of a school's attendance boundary or out of District, may continue, without application, at that school until graduation from that school or until they elect to attend another school. They will be classified as address-change students for that time. Transportation for District resident pupils will be provided per Policy EEA – Student Transportation.
School Choice Where Attendance Zones Overlap
There is one instance of overlapping school attendance zones: Carrillo-Drachman, for grades K to 5. The Carrillo-Drachman overlap came about as Carrillo transitioned from K-2 to K-5 and Drachman transitioned from 3-5 to K-6.
Students within these areas may attend either school. Parents/guardians may indicate the choice of either school by pre-enrollment or by registering at the preferred school at the start of school. That registration will be effective through the last grade offered by that school. If the parent/guardian wishes to enroll the student at another school mid-year, they may do so by submitting a School Choice application. If they wish to change to the other attendance-zone school the next school year they must register at that school through pre-enrollment or at the start of the next school year. If the parent/guardian wants the student to stay at the same school once registered, they do not need to re-register.
School Choice and the Attendance Zones for K-8 Schools
The attendance zones for K-8 schools do not overlap with the attendance zones of middle schools. There are three possible scenarios for K-8 schools:
K-8 schools that are middle schools incorporating a smaller K-5 school. Examples of these are Booth-Fickett and Safford. In these, there is a relatively small attendance zone for the K-5 students and a larger attendance zone for the 6-8 students.
K-8 schools that evolved from K-5 schools by adding grades 6-8. Examples of these are Morgan Maxwell, Rose and Dietz. The attendance zone for K-5 students is the original K-5 attendance zone of the school; the attendance zone for 6-8 students is the attendance zone of the middle school serving the area.
K-8 schools that have a discrete attendance zone for K-8 students—this serves as the K-5 attendance area and the 6-8 attendance area. The only such K-8 school is Mary Belle McCorkle.
Regardless which of the above scenarios applies, fifth graders attending a K-8 school will automatically roll over to the 6th grade of that school unless the parents indicate, in writing, that they want to have the student attend the middle school serving the area in which they live. All other students who wish to attend the K-8 school for 6th through 8th grade must submit a school choice application.

I would like to create a context menu that will implement many of the common functions ie: delete, save layout, etc. and if a specific grid needs more than the common functions be able to add to the menu for that grid.  I would like to create one context menu and not have to repeat the same code throughout project.
I have no idea on how to accomplish this. Possible?  Example xaml and/or code will be helpful.
Thanks a bunch,
Rick

A: I have attempted to do similar things is the past (not with a context menu but with a listview).  While I never got it 100% working, as I couldn't get certain items to bind properly, I believe the way forward would be as follows;

*

*Create a Context Menu 'style', perhaps in a separate resource dictionary. Here you would design the elements that ALL context menu's will hold.

*When you require a more customised context menu, apply the basic context menu style defined in the previous step to your element and then use the BasedOn attribute to extend this context menu with custom items within this specific element.
Apologies for not including example XAML but I am on a mobile device and therefore cannot contruct XAML very well at all.
Hope this helps to some degree

A sample of 254 swedish posters between 1897 to 1998 from the large collection of the swedish national library, with a list of designers and a 2 page summary.
THE HISTORY OF the poster as an official bulletin and placard stretches back to the origin of printing techniques. Then, it's main purpose was to inform. It was first in the i8oo's, when one more and more started using illustrations, and then primarily color lithographs, that the character of the poster changed. Today, informing is still one of the main purposes of the poster, but the combination of text and pictures present the opportunity for a dif- ferent approach, and the poster has started more actively to influ- ence. In this way, its character has became both informative and manipulative.
IN THE POSTER'S limited format, one should attract the passing observer and, in a short period of time, try to convey that which one has to say. The poster must, in other words, take space and be in focus, and it is precisely that which has influenced the poster's character and design through different periods. Focus is the initial theme and motif in the catalogue. One example is the poster shown on the cover where the eye works as a magnet, and it is difficult not to meet a direct glance. The situation is reversed and the intention is to get us to realize the importance of being seen - the most important function of the poster.
ONE CHARACTERISTIC OF the poster is that it is strongly tied to its own time. The selection made for this catalogue is based upon timely posters from different time periods, the oldest being from 1705. It is easy to see only to the esthetic values when choosing post- ers, but the selection in the catalogue is based on a blend of aspects ranging from documentary to esthetical. Above all else, the poster must work - it must affect. Posters from the war years and political posters from referendums, where the purpose has been to inform, are intermixed with posters where artistic expression seems to be of primary concern. Often one finds oneself considering how well- crafted a poster is, and it's only after a little while that one notices what is actually being advertised. This catalogue can be said to be comprised of a representative selection of posters of varying character from the Royal Library's poster collection.
IF THE POSTERS are allowed to speak for themselves, one can, by placing certain posters next to each other, get a polemic effect that in most cases was not intended from the beginning. Opinions and events and even the esthetic design of two posters can, in this way, cast commentary upon each other. Through this kind of arrangement, it is possible even more clearly to emphasize and reinforce the poster's message and get a better feeling for how times have changed.
254 POSTERS OUT of the collection's total number of 500'000 have been chosen for this catalogue. Every poster has been furnished with a commentary including its origins, the year it was made, size, printer and printing technique. The origins of a poster are often difficult to establish. Sometimes a foreign publisher provides a prototype for a poster which, in many cases, have then been adapted to the Swedish particulars. It is common that the posters are not signed.
POSTERS IN SWEDEN deserve a better status. They often have a high artistic quality. The catalogue's first poster is entitled "Pictures out of Sweden's history" and is drawn by Carl Larsson. Perhaps that is the way we should regard these posters - as pictures. In time, the purpose of a poster changes. The message is no longer valid and the poster becomes a decoration and, as such, its value increases abroad. That is a trend that is certain to affect the value of Swedish posters in the future. It is hoped that this catalogue shall convey the breadth that exists in the traditions of the Swedish poster.

Press Releases Hunter Nation: DNR Shamefully disregards Wisconsin hunters
Hunter Nation: DNR Shamefully disregards Wisconsin hunters
Madison, Wisconsin (January 13, 2021) – Today Hunter Nation, a non-profit organization dedicated to preserving and protecting America's hunting heritage, represented its 20,000 members, testifying in support of enacting Wisconsin's wolf harvest season immediately before the Joint Committee on Sporting Heritage.
Inexcusably, Secretary Preston Cole and the Department of Natural Resources chose not to attend the hearing, despite its essential function of planning for and managing the state's mandated wolf harvest.
"The DNR's decision not to attend the Joint Committee on Sporting Heritage's hearing on the wolf harvesting season is a complete failure to the citizens of Wisconsin and a dereliction of their job," said Luke Hilgemann, President of Hunter Nation. "Wisconsin representatives joined to listen to the concerns of those they represent, yet the DNR couldn't be bothered to attend and answer important questions about the state's wolf population, hunting process and regulations, quotas and more."
Wisconsin law requires the DNR to hold a hunting and trapping season if the gray wolf is not under federal protections. Despite knowing for months that the gray wolf would be officially delisted from the Endangered Species Act, the department has neglected to update the wolf management plan.
"It is abundantly clear Governor Evers, Secretary Cole and the Department of Resources are playing politics and intentionally delaying the wolf harvest," Hilgemann continued. "This delay gives radical anti-hunting groups who have vowed to sue and use all legal maneuvers necessary time to block the delisting, ultimately preventing a wolf harvesting season to be held."
With the state's wolf population nearly four times higher than the state's goal and depredations up 70% since 2015, Hunter Nation demands the Wisconsin DNR take all actions necessary to quickly implement a 2021 harvest season for wolves in Wisconsin.

"The muscle testing was a great experience, I was made to feel very calm and at ease directly from when I entered the room. The testing consisted of the practitioner presenting an array of different objects and substances near me and then assessing my leg muscle's reaction to each of them.
After my testing I was given an in-depth analysis of what my body was deficient in and a protocol of what to take to get my body in the right balance. The protocol also included many different recipes for healthy meals that I could try, which was really useful.
I have been taking the recommended supplements for just over a month now, and have already noticed a difference in my body. The main difference being that I no longer get headaches which were very common for me beforehand. I would strongly recommend everyone to be muscle tested, as it was so insightful and useful to find out what my body was deficient in and how to improve my overall health."
"Seeing Habib to get my health and lifestyle goals in order was one of the best decisions I have made. Habib is very patient, takes time to learn your individual needs and takes a lot of time to get to know what will work for you and what won't.
He addresses your environment, lifestyle, diet as well as emotional state to get to the route cause of your problems. Habib helped me a lot with losing weight and coming up with a realistic and feasible goals for me to stick to."
"Habib helped me a great deal with my energy issues. I was struggling to get through the day, living on coffee for energy and then struggling to sleep. I was stuck in a cycle that was hard to break. Habib helped me change my relationship with food, put me on a good detox protocol and helped me eat the right foods for energy. Doing a 3 month protocol designed personally for me by Habib has done wonders for my health overall. I feel like a new man!"

Jeremy Adam Smith| October 20, 2009
Bildr is one of the most amazing DIY projects I've ever encountered. The idea, as articulated on Maker:
Create a visual Web-based library of componentized instruction sets, 'building blocks,' for doing various hardware and software constructions. Put a bunch of these components together, and you have all of the instructions you need to execute a multi-part project. It's extraordinarily ambitious, but when you look at other crowdsourced creations, such as Instructables and Wikipedia, it just seems so doable. But to make it happen, it'll need LOTS of love, care, sweat-equity, money, and people power.

UK urged to follow Icelandic fisheries model
Fisheries agreements Fish stocks Fisheries
by Rob Fletcher
7 July 2017, at 8:52am
The UK should follow the example of its northern neighbours Iceland and Norway when it comes to managing fisheries – because they have been far more successful than the EU at conserving stocks and sustaining coastal communities.
That's the analysis of an Icelandic expert, based on his country's experiences right back to the Cod Wars of the 1970s, as the UK enters detailed Brexit negotiations.
Hjörtur J Guðmundsson said: "What Britain can learn from the experience of Iceland and Norway in short is the importance of having full authority over the fishing sector, the importance of sustainable and responsible management and of keeping the domestic fishing grounds as a general rule for local fishermen for the benefit of the whole country.
"The United Kingdom will, as a sovereign country, have an absolute and undisputed right to a 200-mile Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ) or the median line under the UN Convention on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS).
"No traditional fishing rights, real or purported, of other countries can override that, otherwise no country would ever risk allowing fishing vessels from other countries to fish in its waters."
Mr Guðmundsson's remarks were made in a paper, "Fishing for Freedom: Lessons for Britain from Iceland's fisheries experience", for The Red Cell think tank.
He added: "Consequently, the EU and its member states have no legal arguments for demands to continue fishing in British waters as before. And they are very well aware of that.
"Britain's case is very strong. The British people both have strong conservation arguments on their side, like Iceland during the Cod Wars in the latter half of the 20th century, due to the failures of the Common Fisheries Policy (CFP) but also the sovereign right to a 200-mile EEZ which is today guaranteed by international law.
"Leaving the EU offers the British government a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to fundamentally rethink the way British fisheries are managed, with a long-term view of how the sector may prosper in the future, taking note of the best practices of other countries and ensuring sustainability and the creation of valuable British jobs."
Bertie Armstrong, chief executive of the Scottish Fishermen's Federation, said: "These are exactly the arguments we have been making to our governments, and what better validation of them than the experience of those fisheries nations outside the EU and its disastrous CFP.

The Hunter is not a residential heating appliance. It is a recreational appliance, just like an outdoor fire pit would be. As such, it cannot be installed in a permanent building (cottage, house, etc.). It must be used strictly for recreational purposes in temporary installations like an ice fishing shack or a prospector tent.
Its rugged steel construction allows you to cook on top of the unit. Due to light weight, the Hunter is easily transportable on a 4-wheeler ATV. Enjoy a nice warm friend at your favorite hunting or fishing spots!

Just renovated in 2019 Trophy Victorian triplex in the heart of Midtown Sacramento. This tastefully remodeled triplex features a stunning two-bedroom/ one and a half-bathroom upstairs unit filled with designer touches, along with two darling remodeled one-bedroom/ one-bathroom units downstairs. This immaculately well-kept building has been occupied by the owner since 2004 and is expandable to 4 units according to county use code & land use description. This is a very rare opportunity for rental income or live-in with cash flow at this trophy location.


This is the eminent John O'Brien who has been dealing in lighters for over forty years and has a stock of around four thousand. "I have collectors from all over the world who buy my lighters. At the moment it's the Russians – anything Russian sells." declared John, his green eyes glittering in delight, before snatching one lighter after another from his collection, flipping and snapping them to produce flames in innumerable ingenious methods. "At an early age, I was given a collection of lighters and I loved the mechanisms, especially perpetual lighters from the eighteen nineties." he told me, revealing the catalyst that sparked his life-long enthusiasm.
This is Jan Gordon who has been trading in Spitalfields for five years and six weeks. "Personally, I deal in jewellery though I rarely wear it," she confided to me eagerly, "it's just a magpie instinct – whenever I open a box of glittery things, it's such a wonderful uplifting feeling. Now I've got the best of both worlds because I enjoy it and I seem to do well out of it too." When I admired the box of old lead figures amongst all the toby jugs and old china tea sets on her stall, Jan explained that some of the stock was her husband's, "Toys are really his thing.", she revealed with an affectionate grin.
This is Ian Jeffries and Wayne Shires, who describe themselves as a couple of Spitalfields virgins, enjoying their first day on the market. Two old friends, both shopaholics, now downsizing and decluttering, Ian & Wayne were positively bristling with excitement. "We're just here to see what the ride is like today," quipped Ian, an interior designer with a saucy grin and suave attitude. Already they had sold a lot to the other dealers, "I think they smelled fresh meat!" declared Wayne, a former club promoter and DJ, rubbing his hands in gleeful anticipation.
