An extremely fine period village house within a mature garden with excellent amenities close at hand.
This delightful family home is understood to date back to the late 17th century, and, as its name implies, it was formerly a cottage which was substantially enlarged on the south side in 1850 by Alderman Binney, sometime Lord Mayor of Winchester. It is understood that Mr Binney left money to the Cathedral architect who, it is thought, was very influential in the design of the extension.
Constructed of whitened brick elevations, incorporating window shutters to two sides, beneath a tiled roof, with a single storey slate roofed extension at the rear, The Cottage has been well maintained by the present owners over the last 25 years. The comfortably proportioned and light and airy accommodation which is based on three floors with the added benefit of good cellarage, is ideally suited for family occupation, with good ceiling heights throughout.
The property is approached from the road through a pair of white ornamental wrought iron gates over a tarmacadam drive up to a parking and turning area, flanked on one side by a good size area of lawn with a number of specimen trees, shrubs, and a rose bed with a stone retaining wall. Along the southern boundary there is a mature conifer hedge. The tarmacadam drive continues round to a courtyard where there is further parking, a paved sitting out area approached off the kitchen, and an area of lawn which extends round the rear of the garage block to the pool area, containing a heated swimming pool with paved surround, providing good sitting out areas. There are well stocked shrub and flower borders. Along the rear of the outbuildings is a pergola with climbing roses.

Biden Celebrates Two Years of Hell Under His Leadership by Lying About Being a Professor at UPenn (VIDEO)
Joe Biden on Friday celebrated two years in office by welcoming mayors who are attending the US Conference of Mayors Winter Meeting to the White House.
Biden delivered remarks in the East Room to celebrate his dumpster fire administration.
Of course Biden's speech was full of lies.
Biden falsely claimed the economy has improved under his watch and that he 'cut the deficit.'
He also lied about being a professor at the University of Pennsylvania.
Over the years Joe Biden has repeatedly claimed he was a professor at UPenn.
This is one of Biden's favorite lies.
"I was professor at the University and things were going fine," Biden said.
This is the 16th time Biden has publicly claimed he was a professor at UPenn.
Of course none of this ever happened.
Joe Biden is a legend in his own mind.
Joe Biden was paid $1 million by UPenn but he never taught a single class.
This is one of Joe Biden's favorite lies.
Joe Biden is a corrupt politician and a pathological liar.
Biden was never a "professor" or teacher after serving as Vice President in 2017.
Biden was paid $1 million to do nothing, as the Daily Caller noted:
When the Daily Caller asked whether Biden had in fact taught any courses since being hired, UPenn Vice Provost for Faculty Anita Allen did not list any, saying his work was instead based in Washington.
Biden was paid to give a few speeches (typical career politician/DC grifter) but he never taught a class.
Biden has repeated this lie over and over again and the mainstream media never calls him out for his brazen lies.

Sr Lucy, who protested against rape accused Bishop Franco expelled for her 'lifestyle'
Roky August 7, 2019
She wrote and published her poems, learnt how to drive, bought a car and even supported the protests against rape accused Bishop Franco Mulakkal. These are Sister Lucy Kalappura's crimes according to the Franciscan Clarist Congregation (FCC), for which she has been dismissed from the congregation on Monday.
Superior General of FCC, Ann Joseph, issued the letter, dated August 5, to Sister Lucy, stating that she "did not show the needed remorse and you failed to give a satisfactory explanation for your lifestyle in violation of the proper law of the FCC".
The General Council, which was held on 11 May 2019, unanimously voted to dismiss her from the FCC. This decree was sent to the Congregation for the Oriental Churches in the Vatican through the Nunciature in New Delhi.
This, according to the letter, received confirmation from the Vatican. "The Congregation for the Oriental Churches, by virtue of the faculty given to it by the Supreme Pontiff Pope Francis having considered everything seriously, has granted the confirmation, as per the request, so that the same professed one remains freed from her religious profession and other obligations and separated from her Religious Congregation, and to be considered dismissed from her religious life, and to be considered as a simple layperson the other things to be done what are to be done according to the law," a part of the letter of confirmation from Vatican read.
Sister Lucy has been given a deadline of 10 days to make recourse to the Congregation for the Oriental Churches against this decree of dismissal.
"In case you accept this decree of dismissal without any recourse, as per canon law and as per the decree of confirmation, you will be freed from the obligations of the vows of chastity, poverty and obedience that you have taken in the Franciscan Clarist Congregation and you will have no more rights and duties in the Franciscan Clarist Congregation and hence, you are to leave the present community within 10 days from the reception of this communication, after having handed over your religious habit to the superior of your local community," the letter added.
Reacting to this decree, Sister Lucy told the media, "There is no fault on my part. I will not move out from the convent and I will fight against this (dismissal) legally."
Sister Lucy of Mananthavady Diocese in Wayanad was given two letters prior to this, warning her for her "lifestyle" and for challenging the Church for cornering the survivor nun in the rape case against Franco Mulakkal. Even then, she stood by what she says now, that she has not done anything wrong, but has been right.
The first letter was issued in January, and the second one in February. In both letters, the Superior General pointed out that her life was "against the principles of religious life" and "against the rule and constitution of FCC".
In fact, a few days after joining the protests led by five nuns of Missionaries of Jesus in September 2018, Sister Lucy was banned from teaching the Bible and attending prayers, worship services and other activities of the parish, including offering holy communion.

The world in a shoe
There is nothing in this that surprises. I sincerely doubt that nature would have ever coughed up these materials…but it wishes it had.
I think it's pretty obvious that these are the most awesome shoes in the world. When Pope Benedict slips on a pair of red brogans, he's wishing he had these shoes. They're just that amazing. And they would really show off his calves. If popes have calves, it's hard to tell under the robes, but even popes have to go out dancing every once in a while. And when they do, why not trip the rite fantastic in sharp-toed lace-ups with a three-inch transparent heel? Eat your heart out, XVI.
Go ahead…walk all over me. To hell with it.
I'd be a little worried about shoes with wispy, vaguely shocked zaftigs on them. But frankly, it's not the worst crime committed by cobblers. Certainly not tonight. With the full moon in the background, it's like she's fleeing a werewolf, or maybe Zeus. All on your shoe. How should one feel about that? I felt a bit like a party to the crime. Not that I wore these, mind, they're about two sizes too snug. Oh, but in my dreams…
Is it possible to achieve "worldly" simply by the advent of sufficiently graphic-intensive footwear? You'd have to wear them completely unironically. You'd need to pull them on, lace them, without a trace of self-effacement, shove your paramour to the bed, hold him down firmly but lovingly, and say, in a husky voice, "You're going to see Ephesus tonight." A classically-educated dominatrix is a threatening dominatrix.
So…I really love this shot. The sense of motion, antiquity, and shoeness is so compelling I want to unzip her to see if she escapes her bound universe and runs free, her life unbound by shoes, barefoot through a field of daffodils and scraps of sonnets on curled parchment. Run free, nymph of the mid heel.
But don't think that life in these shoes is all Romanesque beauties and midnight dalliances. These shoes are fraught with danger, too. Like a Harryhausen film, they may contain beautiful women and Greek ruins, but they also hold stop-motion plesiosaurs.
There's really a lot going on here. But basically, if you wanted a pair of stilettos that presented a reasonably accurate history of the Roman empire and allegorically portrayed the collapse of civilization following the ascent to the throne of Constantine and the assumption of Christianity as a state religion, there you go.

Coca-Cola develops recycled PET and plant combo for bottle packaging
Coca-Cola GB has developed new PlantBottle packaging for some of its major drinks brands, based on plant-based materials and recycled PET.
Published 12th September 2011

All Coca-Cola, Coke Zero and diet Coke in 500ml bottles will now be sold in PlantBottle packaging – more than 200 million bottles in total that will hit the shelves in the UK this year.
The packaging has a lower reliance on non-renewable resources compared to traditional PET plastic bottles and is fully recyclable. The company's vision is that all its plastic bottles will be made from a combination of plant-based materials and recycled PET plastic by 2020.
Just over half of all Coca-Cola drinks globally are sold in PET plastic bottles and these are traditionally made entirely from petroleum and other non-renewable fossil fuels.
By contrast, the PlantBottle packaging is made from up to 22.5% plant-based material and up to 25% recycled PET plastic. The plant-based component of the new bottle is sourced from bioethanol from sugarcane.
Coca-Cola says it has been working closely with WWF and the Bonsucro organisation to choose sugarcane from plantations in Brazil, sources widely recognised by for their environmental and social performance.
Coca-Cola's country manager for GB & Ireland, Jon Woods, said: "The PlantBottle package is a bottle we can all feel good about and is a significant step on our journey towards more sustainable packaging. It looks, feels and functions just like a normal plastic bottle, but it helps reduce our reliance on non-renewable resources."
He added: "We're already hard at work to evolve the next generation of packaging. We're especially excited about the potential to develop recyclable plastic from natural, renewable resources like stems, fruit peels and bark, which can be sourced from almost anywhere in the world.
"We're not there yet as a commercial product, but, working with our research partners, we think we'll get there in the next three to five years."

ForgeRock Identity Management
ForgeRock Workforce Identity Management
Securing The Modern Enterprise
Global organizations spend too much of their limited time and security dollars shoring up their perimeter security defenses – defenses that have virtually disappeared during the current pandemic. While this is an area that should not be neglected, it isn't addressing the most problematic area of today's threat landscape: securing the remote workforce. The phrase "negligent employees or contractors and third parties" tells us that these are not malicious insiders who are copying digital records late at night in order to sell them. Today's data breaches result from someone who had access to data that they shouldn't have had access to or because an account was compromised through a phishing attack or some other type of social engineering. What are global organizations to do?
ForgeRock Identity Management (IDM) is a modern identity management solution that allows you to accelerate secure workforce access, increase operational efficiencies, and mitigate security risks.
What is ForgeRock Identity Management?
Why ForgeRock Identity Management?
In today's digital world, global organizations are securing and managing multiple types of digital identities – whether they are employees, contractors, partners, customers, devices, or things. All of these identities need to be created and managed so they have the right level of access to applications, systems, and resources at the right time. Users and customers are provisioned and de-provisioned as identities are added, moved, or removed in order to ensure that accounts are not orphaned and credentials are properly disabled. To properly secure and manage these digital identities at scale, global organizations need to fully automate their identity processes.
ForgeRock Identity Management is a modern identity management solution that fully automates the entire identity lifecycle management process. This automated approach enables organizations to create new user or customer accounts, provision new application or system access, and deprovision user and customer accounts and supporting credentials from target applications and resources.
ForgeRock Identity Management Benefits
Accelerate Secure Workforce Access
Automate employee access to business systems and applications on day one
Automate employee access to business systems and applications when they move to a new position or department
Automate single sign-on authentication to business systems and applications
Boost Business Operational Efficiency
Automate employee account creation and removal
Enable automated self-service password reset
Automate business processes with workflow-driven provisioning activities
Enhance Security and Reduce Risks
Automate employee entitlement and role assignments
Enable password synchronization across all systems, applications, and data stores
Continuously identify and monitor for high-risk users (example: segregation of duties checks)
ForgeRock Identity Management Features
ForgeRock Identity Management (IDM) solution provides comprehensive lifecycle management capabilities for any identity – customer, workforce, and thing. This is activated from the day a new customer is acquired and activated, an employee or contractor is onboarded, or a device is registered. Each identity requires accounts with different levels of privileges across a wide range of systems to perform their duties or access new digital services. ForgeRock Identity Management allows you to centrally define policies that govern access and provides a single view into all those accounts and managed identities. With identity lifecycle management, you can fully automate this process, eliminating error-prone manual processes. It provides a consistent and efficient way to create, modify, and remove accounts while ensuring a high level of security.
ForgeRock provides a unified approach to password management to ensure that the right password controls are enforced everywhere – for all users, devices, and things. With ForgeRock, organizations can set a consistent password policy, enforce access rights with password policies and rules that can specify strength, aging, reuse, and attribute validation. Combined with flexible password management, administrators can create and administer policies that let users reset and change their own passwords. With ForgeRock, organizations can design password reset journey's with Intelligent Access drag-and-drop trees. The highly intuitive user interface allows for a seamless user experience between password reset and authentication flows. This unique approach creates a frictionless flow between password reset and authentication and helps decrease abandonment rates by providing an unsurpassed user experience.
Extensive Data Model
ForgeRock IDM's extensible data model gives you the flexibility to manage multiple identity types, including: customers, partners, workforce, citizens, machines, devices,application programming interfaces (APIs) for bots, applications, microservices, and more. Combined with a highly intuitive UI, administrators can visually define policies based on the contextual relationships between any persons, non-persons, services, and things. This intelligence-based approach allows you to automate identity orchestration across the entire identity lifecycle.
Synchronization and Reconciliation
ForgeRock Identity Management's synchronization and reconciliation service gives you the ability to synchronize data in real time and schedule the reconciliation of identity data as needed. With capabilities like delivery guarantee, on-demand and scheduled resource comparisons, and discovery of new, changed, deleted, or orphaned accounts, ForgeRock Identity Management ensures that consistent user identity information is available across the entire identity infrastructure. This enables you to provide a consistent, personalized experience to your users. Tying synchronization and reconciliation with business process workflows and rules allows for appropriate reviews and administrative actions.
Identity Relationship Visualization
ForgeRock Identity Management is the only modern identity platform that offers identity relationship visualization. At ForgeRock, we understand the importance of context and relationship information, along with user identity, in making security decisions. ForgeRock IDM offers the unique capability to visualize the identity relationships of any user or thing under management. Identity relationship visualization helps you understand the attributes, roles, and relationships among different users, as well as any given user and all their devices. This enables you to quickly detect anomalies, so you can quickly eliminate potential issues before they turn into security problems.
ForgeRock provides you with an out-of-the-box workflow engine that adheres to the Business Processes Modeling Notation 2.0 (BPMN 2.0) standard. Use any BPMN graphical editor to quickly and easily create new workflows or edit existing workflows that are delivered as part of the solution, and/or integrate simple or complex workflow operations during the entire identity lifecycle. By providing workflow-driven provisioning activities, such as user requests, account creation, updates, or deletions, you can efficiently handle approvals, manage escalations, perform preventive maintenance, and directly integrate with ticketing and help desk systems.

The Mishmi wren-babbler (Spelaeornis badeigularis) is a species of bird in the family Timaliidae.
It is endemic to Northeast India.

Its natural habitat is subtropical or tropical moist montane forest.
It is threatened by habitat loss. The species was first described based on a bird collected in 1947 but was not seen again until 2004, when a field trip discovered it to be moderately common in a restricted area of Mishmi Hills in Arunachal Pradesh.

Farming provides the biggest area of employment in Ghana. VPWA is seeking to empower marginalised groups by creating agricultural projects within the farming sector. We are always looking for new opportunities to support agriculture and employment in Ghana. Below are some of the projects we have worked on, and if you would like to suggest a project or require more information please contact us.
VPWA is working with Shape Lives, an indigenous Ghanaian organisation, to raise funds to expand an existing Moringa Farm near the village of Santrokofi-Bume near Hohoe in Volta Region of Ghana. The farm currently provides a livelihood for 25 women in the village. Expanding the farm will lead to the employment of more than 250 women in the district. This will provide the women with an income to feed their family and fund their children's education.
If you or your institution is interested in supporting this initiative please contact info@vpwa.org to request a full project proposal.
Madam Agnes Kusi, a Board member of VPWA, currently employs ten people who work as rubber tapers on her 40 acre rubber plantation in Western Ghana. VPWA is raising funds to expand the plantation which will lead to the employment of an additional 30-50 rubber tapers from the local area. These projects can greatly increase the level of employment in a community which will provide women with ongoing income to support their family and lead to increased development in the region.


I just installed Version 9.30. Due to all the issues with the previous version of 2018 related to bill reminders & online payees, I had to remove all linked payees, bill pays, etc. in order to avoid encountering those issues and be able to manage my bills reliably.
After months of waiting, 9.30 was released and those issues are supposedly addressed. However, in order to verify, I need to add my linked payees back in.
Unfortunately, I'm unable to link a bill to an online payee and am encountering the error "Unable to update billers"
Quicken displays authentication status message and then displays "Unable to update billers" error.
Note that I have tried multiple billers and encounter the same situation on each of them.
Thanks miklk, appreciate your input.
Unfortunately, this does not appear to be a "temp outage" as the problem has been occurring for nearly 24 hours now.
Regarding signing in as a different user, I understand your line of thinking (e.g. "resetting things") but per the documentation, "signing out" resets information (e.g. cloud, credit score, etc.) that I do not want to risk having to "re-sync" as of yet. Given all the changes to bill payees in this release and given it's been nearly 24 hours, this issue is likely related to an underlying issue with software so I'm going to give Quicken an opportunity to provide input before I take on the risk of signout/signin breaking something else.
Signing out and back in only caused Quick to crash. No errors, it just vanished. On launching Quicken again I tried to add a biller with the same results. How do they manage to keep breaking things that were previously working?
Same problem.... This appears to be a known issue with Quicken, I found a reply from Quicken support stating this, dated 3 days ago but it was in reference to Quicken 2017.
This would be a nice feature if it worked, I have been trying to use it for a year but its too unstable. Its has pulled the wrong bill amounts, it has entered transactions in the register without my input, it has entered payment for the wrong year.
I have been a Quicken user for 20+ years but when this current subscription expires I will be switching to MoneyDance, less features but what features it has seems to work, more then I can say for Quicken.
It appears to me, that they need to stop trying to add features to this cobbled up mess of code and focus on creating a new application from the ground up. if they do that I would gladly try it again but at this point I'm done.
I was told on Friday (5/31/2018) morning that this would be resolved within two hours. It is Sunday and it is not. I feel cheated that I had to start subscribing to this software that is now so incredibly buggy. I guess it is time to look for a new solution. I've put about 20 hours of my time into trying to get this thing to work since converting to Hobe & Business 2018 in March and it is still the buggiest piece of commercial software I have ever encountered.
Installed 9.30 on 5/30/2018, "Unable to update billers" still occurring over 3 days later. Tried signout/in, but no difference.
I wish I could say two-steps forward one step back with Quicken 2018, but alas, it's just 3 steps backwards.
Beyond fixing what has become the most unreliable version of Quicken ever, I would like to know what Quicken is doing internally to address their inefficient and ineffective software development process?
In the meantime, it's back to researching alternatives as this has become a hopeless situation with Quicken.
I have been looking for a while for a replacement, the best Desktop, non cloud based package I have found is MoneyDance.
It imports Quicken Data but be prepared to fix somethings that do not import correctly. Hope is helps.
I'm so disappointed with Quicken after being a long time user.
Does Quicken have an official position on this issue that has existed prior to 9.30 but has since increased in scope/frequency?
I was told a fix is in the next release, but the schedule is not set.
We were told the fix was in the last release, but things only got worse.
I understand. I was told this just this morning.
I have been looking for a while for a replacement, the best Desktop, non cloud based package I have found is ??????????.
I'm so disappointed with Quicken after being a long time user."
The reason given is it violated the "No Selling" policies, this moderator does not understand the difference between selling an item vs giving an opinion.
This just re-enforces my decision to drop Quicken.
What product will you be switching to? That information is not sales related and should be allowed.
Installed 9.33 today and I'm how able to link billers again.
There is nothing in the release notes for 9.33 that would indicate anything related to this was fixed so no way to know if 9.33 fixed this or if today is just my "lucky" day. I've been running 9.3 for 8 days now and was unable to link a biller despite trying signout/in, super validate, etc.
Well, much to my surprise I fired up Quicken this morning and checked to verify I was still on R9.30 and I was. I tried to link a biller and it actually worked. I will now update to R9.33 and verify it still does.
I am on Home BUsiness and Rental Property 2018 and 9.33 does not seem available for me yet. Still I could add the online billers today. It seemed to get confused a bit with what had already been paid, but hopefully the corrections will stick.
I think this indicates the inability to get the "Billers List" was a server-side problem, and not a problem in the code.
I have 2019 and have this same problem. After answering the security questions it fails and I get the same old error Unable to update billers. Hard to believe this error has been out there for years and yet they cannot find a permanent fix.


Enlightenment is not a remote state of Consciousness that we need to achieve some time in the future, but it is the very heart of our nature. Enlightenment is our true, inner nature. Unfortunately, during our spiritual search, most of us have been alienated from it; so much so, that we have even forgotten about it.
We experienced the nature of desires, the constant variability ofthe world of shapes and forms, where nothing is lasting, everything is dialectical, changeable. We is able to abandon its desires and ambitions.

Seventh journalist killed in Yemen this year
BRUSSELS - Correspondent Mubarak al-Abadi, working for Suhail TV, was killed by the al Houthi group on 5 August while covering clashes in Al-Jawf province, Yemen.
Abadi was also the head of Al Nabaa Media in Al-Jawf province. He was the main source for news and images from the area. The Yemeni Journalists Syndicate (YJS), an IFJ affiliate, said that Abadi was well known for his journalistic work and his dedication.
The IFJ, which represents 600,000 journalists worldwide, joined the YJS in mourning the death of the journalist, the seventh killed in the country in 2016.
IFJ President Philippe Leruth said, "We offer our sincere condolences to Mubarak al-Abadi's family and friends and we once again remind all groups and authorities that targeting journalists must stop and the aggressors against journalists and violators of freedom of opinion and expression must be punished. Reporters and other civilians should be protected in this unbearable war in Yemen, like everywhere in the world."
According to the IFJ's latest figures, 14 journalists remain detained by Houthis - and one by Al Qaida - and nine have been tortured in Yemen since 2015. - An IFJ media release

Germany & France flash PMI surveys
Tuesday: Recent purchasing managers' index (PMI) data appears to show that the manufacturing sector has been struggling since the beginning of the year. While the numbers remain broadly positive, there is concern that we might see further weakness in the months ahead, amid talk of trade wars and tariffs. Services on the other hand has been showing signs of finding a base, with a rebound in both Germany and France in June. After a month-long World Cup and with France lifting the trophy, the French services sector could be set for another boost as it continues to outperform Germany, whose team went home unexpectedly early.
ITV half-year results
Wednesday: When Carolyn McCall left easyJet, she may have felt that turning ITV around would probably be an easier job than turning a budget airline into a household name. This may prove easier said than done, however, and the sharp fall in profit at the beginning of the year will have brought the scale of the task into sharp focus. A steep fall in advertising saw its revenue decline to £1.5bn. Once again it was ITV Studios that picked up the slack, with a range of programmes from Broadchurch to Love Island that allowed it to push its total revenue up by 2%. Management will hope that the World Cup will go some way to boosting advertising in the first half of this year, though the company could miss out if the so-called 'ITV curse' on England games caused people to switch off. The big concern for ITV is that its programming budget is tiny compared with its rivals, and there is a worry that in order to compete, margins could get hit further. Its online offering isn't great either, with the ITV Hub clunky to navigate.
Facebook Q2 results
Wednesday: Despite the fallout from the Cambridge Analytica privacy scandal earlier this year, Facebook was still able to post record revenue of $12bn in its Q1 update, a 50% increase from the same period last year. Over the past three months, the quid pro quo for accessing Facebook services has been the collection of far more data than previously realised, including details of a user's browsing history even after a web page is closed. With the advent of the European GDPR directive and acknowledgment that the company needed to do more to assuage concerns about user privacy, there is a distinct possibility that we could see a delayed reaction given some of the negative publicity over CEO Mark Zuckerberg's interactions with US and EU politicians. A slide in users and revenue could lead to a sharp reversal in the share price, which until now has proved to be fairly resilient to the company's recent woes.
Sky full-year results
Thursday: Sky's share price performance in recent months has been driven less by its business performance and more by a bidding war between Comcast and Disney, which has seen its share price rise over 50% already this year. When the company announced its half-year numbers at the beginning of 2018, revenue had increased by 5% year-on-year, helped by productions like Game of Thrones. Sky signed a content partnership with rival BT at the end of last year, as the business gears up to deal with the threat of Netflix and Amazon. Amazon's entry into streaming Premier League games from the beginning of the 2019 season appears to bear these concerns out. A tie-up with Disney will certainly help in terms of content, and for the moment this seems the preferred option, as investors look at the longevity of the overall business model. Sky's management have a big decision to make: do they go for the best bid, or take a longer-term view. If they choose Comcast, they will be backing a company which has received more complaints than any other – whereas Disney has a better reputation. Whichever way they go, Sky customers could pay with higher prices, or worse customer service – or both.
Trump meets Juncker
Wednesday: It should be an interesting meeting between the teetotal President Trump and president of the EU commission Jean-Claude Juncker, who it has been rumoured does like the odd tipple, when they meet at the White House on 25 July. Trade is likely to be high on the agenda list at a time when the US president has called the EU a "foe", while the EU commission has promised to push back on the President Trump's threat to impose a tax on all imports of cars from the EU.
ECB rate meeting
Thursday: We're not expecting any surprises from this week's European Central Bank rate meeting, coming off the back off last month's decision to taper the asset purchase programme by the end of this year. The main focus is likely to be on whether the ECB clarifies its guidance on the timing of its first rate hike, with speculation varying between Q2 next year; the end of Q3 2019 – a time that has euphemistically been described as the 'end of the summer' – or at the end of Q4, after President Draghi's term at the helm of the bank has expired.
Amazon Q2 results
Thursday: Amazon has continued to break into new markets with the recent acquisition of a small portion of Premier League football rights from the 2019 season, accelerating its advance into new areas for content and revolutionising the retail landscape. Doubling profit in Q1 this year, along with price rises in its US markets, certainly helped, while its foray into food and healthcare is only just getting started. Revenue rose to $51bn in Q1, with the prospect that Q2 could be an even better performance, despite the problems that marked last week's Prime Day, as subscribers for Prime moved above the 100m mark at the end of the last quarter. The company has also announced its intention to launch its own smart TV with inbuilt Freeview tuner, in order to take on Sky in the pay TV market.
US Q2 GDP
Friday: January tax cuts appear to have helped light a fire under the US economy, with retail sales rising for five months in a row despite two further rate rises this year, while unemployment recently dipped below 4%. The recent US Federal Reserve minutes highlighted that the economy continued to look strong, and this week's first iteration of Q2 gross domestic product may come in at a fairly lofty 4%.

A borrowing quagmire
Shahzada Zulfiqar
Balochistan Assembly passed a bill last month against practice of usury. The challenge lies in its implementation
Finally the Government of Balochistan has put a complete ban on usury through legislation, determining strict punishments for those involved in the racket. Imprisonment extendable upto ten years and a fine of rupees ten million has been announced.
Usury has remained a profitable business in the local market for decades.
The initiative was of an opposition member Haji Gul Mohammad Domar of Jamiat Ulema-e-Islam (Fazal) who tabled a resolution in the assembly a couple of months back, demanding a heavy crackdown on usurers after putting a complete ban on the illegal business. The government side assured the house to initiate legislation with tough punishment for the people involved in the racket in order to save innocent people.
The assembly passed the 'Balochistan Prohibition of Private Money Lending Bill 2014' last month and declared 'The West Pakistan Money-Lenders Ordinance, 1960' null and void. There was complete consensus here. In 1960 the military regime under the ordinance had allowed individuals and private companies to lend money under license on rates not higher than any bank. Different political parties, particularly from the opposition, appreciated Dr Malik Baloch-led ruling coalition for the move. One of the coalition partners, Pashtoonkhwa Milli Awami Party, played the main role in the preparation of the bill.
"It is no doubt a good initiative by the government but the challenge it will face is in the implementation of law in letter and spirit," said Asghar Khan Achakzai, the provincial President Awami National Party.
Thousands of businessmen/traders, mainly Afghan nationals, are involved in usury in Balochistan, making manifold profits under the name of 'payment' on the business of giving used and brand new motorcycles and cars, trucks, buses, household, electronic goods and other moveable and immovable properties on easy installments. In most of car showrooms and offices of estate agents in the provincial capital, 'payment' business is common. The usurers trap the low paid employees, particularly members of Christian minority, by giving them cash or household appliances after seeking written assurances along with property documents as guarantee. They grab the family's movable and immovable properties by pressurising the debtors through various tactics. In some cases the usurers forced their debtors to surrender their underage girls and women for marriage or as guarantors till they pay the whole debt.
"A few years back, a lady came to me along with her three grown-up daughters at my residence, asking for refuge against their lender/usurer who wanted to marry one of her daughters because her husband was unable to pay his debts", said Sardar Abdur Rahman Khaithran, a JUI(F) MPA on the assembly floor.
Many families ruined their lives after their properties -- houses they were residing in -- were taken away by the money lenders against small amounts. If someone is unable to pay back the debt for a year or so, his lender forces him to enter a new deal by buying a movable or immovable property from the former at exorbitant price, but selling the same to him the very next moment at cheap price to settle his previous debt.
This way, the debtor again comes under heavier debt and gets trapped in an unending borrowing quagmire. The land mafia is also active against people belonging to Punjabi speaking and Christian communities.
In 2003-4, Nasrullah Kakar, President of Pakistan Workers Party, who himself came under the burden of such debt, had launched a campaign along with a tribal chieftain Nawab Ayaz Jogezai, now a PKMAP provincial minister against usury. Through media, Kakar had called upon all those who got entangled in the usury web not to pay their unjustified or illegal debts except the principal amount. He also provided these ill-fated people a platform to get united under his umbrella against these profiteers.
Then Judge of Balochistan High Court Justice, Amanullah Khan, had also helped such families and directed the police to register case against those who molest the debtor or demand exorbitant rate of interests. These measures brought, though temporarily, a sigh of relief to the debtors who publically refused to pay usury, just the principal amount.

Last month, Mrs Brandreth, Alyaa Bataineh and Kirsty McKay, had the privilege of being able to go and visit Ka Narng Ket School and see it in action.
The journey itself was an arduous one, but filled with anticipation and excitement. After 10 hours in the air, 8 hours travelling over roads and tracks in a 4×4 (oh and a bit on foot when they had to walk over bridges with the car following after!) they finally arrived in the village.
The children attending the school greeted them formally with a bow of their heads, but soon relaxed and felt more comfortable in their company. The children were presented with new resources and had a fabulous time learning how to add with dice, use Numicon (our teachers had to quickly learn how to count in Khmer to be able to teach the children!), how to build amazing Lego models, make shape pictures and draw using chalk. In fact, they managed to decorate the entire school building with chalk drawings, and the great thing is they can do this over and over again as the monsoon rains will keep washing them away. The local teachers and UWS teachers had the opportunity to see how our St Chris teachers used the resources with the children and now have a bank of ideas to use in their lessons. One of the children's favourite activities though, had to be teaching them how to play 'duck, duck, goose'. The children's faces were transformed into huge smiles and laughs as they chased each other round the circle. We are sure this will be a game that they play again and again.
The change that we, at St Chris, have made in the lives of these children was evident to see. They now have a school, teachers, resources and most importantly, support from their families and community. These children want to learn, to improve their lives, to have the opportunity to move on to the next school and to earn money to support their families. We have provided the essential stepping stone in order for them to achieve their goals. Thank you St Chris community!

Texas enforcers want Sam Bankman-Fried to attend the hearing in February: Law Decoded
The Texas State Securities Board (SSB) invited the former CEO to attend the hearing on the alleged sale of unregistered securities on Feb. 2.
Welcome to Law Decoded, your weekly digest of all the major developments in the field of regulation.
There was some substantial good news for crypto last week, but the prevailing storyline is still the unfolding of FTX. While the extradition of the failed exchange's founder Sam Bankman-Fried seemed pretty logical from the beginning of the saga, last week, the 30-year-old got the first official call: The Texas State Securities Board (SSB) invited the former CEO to attend the hearing on the alleged sale of unregistered securities on Feb. 2. SSB's director of enforcement Joe Rotunda hopes to get a Cease and Desist order from the judge during the hearing.
However, the man himself doesn't rush to get back to America, even for the Congress invitation. Bankman-Fried has signaled he's unwilling to testify before the United States Congress until he's "finished learning and reviewing what happened."
Meanwhile, the FTX crush continues to cause a ripple effect all over the world. In Singapore, Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong and Deputy Prime Minister Lawrence Wong are set to face grilling questions for their failure to protect retail investors. As Singaporean state-backed investor Temasek was one of 69 investors to invest in the FTX crypto exchange's $420 million funding round in October 2021, opposition MPs have recommended a bipartisan committee to question Temasek on its investment strategies.
In Europe, the president of the European Central Bank, Christine Lagarde, highlighted the FTX failure stating the necessity of the second package of crypto regulations after the Markets in Crypto-Assets (MiCa) would come into law. Her United States House Financial Services Committee colleagues will also pay closer attention to the FTX case during the special hearing scheduled for Dec. 13. And the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) already held one — answering the "How did it happen?" questions its Chairman Rostin Behnam predictably asked for more power to the Commission.
Brazil passes law to legalize crypto as a payment method
And now for the good news! The Chamber of Deputies of Brazil, a federal legislative body, has passed a regulatory framework that legalizes the use of cryptocurrencies as a payment method within the country. While the document won't make Bitcoin (BTC) a legal tender as in El Salvador, it still will include digital currencies and air mileage programs in the definition of payment methods that are under the supervision of the country's central bank.
Apart from designating crypto as a payment method, the law enables the creation of licenses for crypto exchange platforms and for custody and management of crypto by third parties. In addition to this, the law will require exchanges to make a clear distinction between company and user funds, to avoid another incident like the FTX collapse.
Italy to impose 26% capital gains tax on crypto profits
Italy is planning to tighten regulations on digital currencies in 2023 by expanding its tax laws to include cryptocurrency trading. Included in its 2023 budget are plans to impose a 26% levy on profits larger than 2,000 euros ($2,062) made on cryptocurrency trading. Historically, digital currencies have had lower tax rates because they have been considered "foreign currency." If the proposed bill is signed into law, taxpayers will have the option to declare the value of their digital asset holdings as of Jan. 1 and pay a 14% tax. This is intended to incentivize Italians to declare their digital assets on their tax returns.
South Korean judge dismisses arrest warrants for Do Kwon's former associates
A judge with the Seoul Southern District Court has reportedly set aside arrest warrants for Terra co-founder Shin Hyun-seong along with three Terra investors and four developers. Judge Hong Jin-Pyo said there was little risk of Shin or the Terra associates destroying evidence related to the case against the crypto firm. Do Kwon, who's also facing legal action in South Korea for his role in the firm's collapse, is still unlikely to return to the country, according to the local press.
