Turkish authorities on Tuesday arrested two foreign nationals at Istanbul’s Ataturk airport in connection with the nightclub terror attack early New Year’s Day that left 39 people dead, state-run Anadolu reported.
There were no details available on their nationalities. A total of 16 people have been arrested in connection with the investigation, and Turkish authorities are still on the hunt for the gunman who carried out the attack at the Reina nightclub. Dozens more were wounded.
Monday, police released a video that the suspect apparently took of himself in a market near the nightclub. Neither his name nor his nationality have been released.
Laith Alkhouri, a director at Flashpoint, an American business risk intelligence company tracking terrorist and cyber threats, told CNN the “selfie video” featuring the man in Taksim square was first posted on a pro-ISIS Telegram account before being broadcast by Turkish media.
Alkhouri said that suggests the attacker was part of a network supportive of or linked to ISIS, and that he had shared the selfie footage with them before or after the attack.
ISIS claimed responsibility for the attack in a statement posted to Twitter, but the claim cannot be independently verified by CNN. It boasted about the first major terrorist attack of 2017.
“In continuation of the blessed operations which ISIS carries out against Turkey, a soldier of the brave caliphate attacked one of the most popular nightclubs while Christians were celebrating their holiday,” the statement read.
New details emerged about the gunman. Police told Haberturk newspaper the attacker took a taxi from Zeytinburnu, a neighborhood near the Istanbul airport, to a district near the club. Haberturk reported the attacker put his backpack in the trunk of the taxi.
Turkish news agency IHA reported that, according to the taxi driver, the attacker got out of the vehicle in Ortakoy, about four minutes away from the nightclub.
Surveillance video of the gunman showed him first shooting a security guard and police officer at the entrance of the nightclub.
Then, according to an interview with the club’s DJ in the Turkish daily Hurriyet, the gunman stood near the DJ booth and started shooting. He changed magazines in the weapon several times and fired more than 100 bullets, Hurriyet said.
Deputy Prime Minister Numan Kurtulmus has said the attacker took advantage of the ensuing chaos and slipped out of the club.
According to Haberturk, the shooter got into a cab after the attack but got out a short distance away, in the Kurucesme neighborhood, because he told the cab driver he didn’t have any money. The driver told police that the man borrowed his phone and made a call, but details of that call have not been released, Haberturk reported.
Turkish and US officials have called the attack an act of terrorism, and Turkish authorities believe the suspect acted alone.
US President Barack Obama spoke with Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan on Tuesday. The leaders discussed the ongoing fight against terrorism and coalition efforts against ISIS in Turkey’s southern neighbors, Iraq and Syria, the White House announced.
The militant Kurdistan Worker’s Party, or PKK, distanced itself from the attack.
Those killed in the attack were from 14 countries, including India, Morocco, Jordan, Canada, Russia, Tunisia, Saudi Arabia and Kuwait.

It’s a rewarding experience for an architect to be a member of a church and be given the opportunity to design its new sanctuary. My family has participated in church life for many years and speak with pride about the impact it has had on their view of the world. There have been many opportunities to influence the life of other congregations through visioning and architectural design. Places of worship contribute to the growth and vitality of its community.
For centuries, religious architecture has had a significant impact on the history and inspiration of all people.
St Andrews School in Boca Raton grew in reputation from a quite prep school to a prominent world class boarding school. The new connection to Jog Road gave a new face and access for the community to see with pride. Changing the master plan from the primary East access to a West access helped the school’s image as a significant educational institution.
Every organization arrives at a point when they must advance to the next level. A professional planner can help to see the future.

Building a reputation for quality products is at the heart of a successful company. British based History & Heraldry searched for the right combination of location and trusted professionals to begin the planning and construction of their US distribution headquarters. It’s local representative and his trusted architect began the process of finding the perfect property and designing the site plan. Identifying the office spaces, product distribution and warehouse spaces had to be balanced with the number of parking spaces. The building design had to make a statement reflecting the corporate brand.
Look for an architect with extensive construction management and development experience to bring all the complex components together.
Questions to ask: 1. Importance of existing location?. 2. Percentage of existing construction to remain?. 3. Area of new construction to be added?.
This residence in Boca Grove Country Club is an example where the existing location was preferred. The front elevation needed to look like a new residence and the additional area was added to the second floor which gives an appearance of a very large home.
Have a professional help you evaluate the alternatives.

Every new and expectant mother has probably heard the term attachment parenting.
It sounds exhausting, as all parenting surely is, but in practice, this method of parenting can help create securely attached, independent children.
And, in case you’re confused, independent = less exhausting!
Now, before people think we’re taking sides, let’s be clear: attachment parenting is not your only option for achieving this goal –we are firm believers in the fact that all parenting styles are legit ways of growing good humans.
We’re just the messengers here, yo!
Many argue that attachment parenting will result in bratty, overindulged, spoiled children. And, if done incorrectly, that line of thinking is surely a possibility. The difference between attachment parenting and just indulging your child is that, in attachment parenting, you are responding appropriately to your child’s needs. Meaning, their needs are reasonable as is your response. Your child needs food, you provide it. Your child needs comfort, you provide it. Your child needs you take him away from his overbearing grandmother whose perfume, loud voice, excessive kissing, and overzealous behavior is giving him a headache, you do that too. The attached parent works to meet a child’s needs in a reasonable and timely manner –not worrying about things like strict schedules hard, fast rules, or what grandma says.
As a newborn, your child does not want for frivolous things. His wants align completely with his needs. He wants food, he wants comfort, he wants a fresh diaper, or quiet time. Those are also things your baby needs. Providing them allows your child to learn to trust you. It teaches him to feel cared for and safe which allows him to develop easily other traits, like braveness and inquisitiveness, that will help them become independent as they age.
In order to make attachment parenting work for you and your child, you need to get to know your baby. Concentrated effort must be devoted to learning your baby’s cues, to understanding what his needs are and how he expresses those to you, and to tailoring your response to ensure you are meeting those needs appropriately. It doesn’t mean that you need to strictly monitor your baby –a lot of attachment parenting is about being spontaneous and flexible in your responses. It just means that it takes time! Communication is a struggle in every relationship, and the one you have with your baby is no different.
They just can’t rule your life. Things like demand feeding and baby carrying often play a role in the life of an attached parent, because these practices allow you to respond to your baby’s needs appropriately. Demand feeding doesn’t fit neatly into a strict schedule, nor does baby carrying if you really think about it. Those who live that attached parenting life, understand that today you may be doing a lot of holding and comforting and you might not get your chores completely done, but tomorrow, because of your attention today, you will probably be more hands free!
It is not a protective maneuver. Remember that your goal is to create a well-adjusted, independent child. Attached parents encourage exploration and bravery, they want their child to feel safe taking risks and learning new things. Attachment parenting supports this because it helps you to create a well-adjusted child who isn’t emotionally needy or fragile. They don’t perform attention seeking behaviors because they already have your attention. Children who experience successful attachment parenting feel safe and supported at all times so they are comfortable trying new things and living independently –they understand that they will be cared for if hurt, looked for if lost, and supported if needed. They don’t live in fear of being abandoned or alone, nor are they overly dependent on their parents. Parents can think of themselves as IT support. Your child will turn to you when a virus strikes, or they encounter some other system failure that they are ill equipped to handle alone. However, on a day-to-day basis, they will excel at completing tasks, creating projects, and doing all manner of great and exciting things with you in the background.

What have you done since graduating in 2010?
Since graduating I have interned with menswear designers Martine Rose, Christopher Shannon and then back to Martine because she was lovely to work with! However, I grew a little disheartened with interning as I felt I was pretty much doing the same thing. So, I decided to take things into my own hands and began showcasing my collection at each worthy opportunity. Internet has been particularly useful for gaining attention. I have slowly established my label, there’s still a long way to go and so much to learn but I’m on my way now!
I would say the most important skills that I learned during my time stydying at Fashion Design Rochester were the technical ones such as garment construction and pattern cutting. Without knowing how to cut patterns and construct garments I wouldn’t have been able to successfully design and make my collections and would have had to pay a lot of money for people to do the work for me.
The course trained me how to design my own collection and how to present it. The research and design process, utilising your research effectively, having the ability to be critical about your designs – deciding which ones to bring forward into a cohesive collection that you will present is very important. Through presentations and critiques, I learned how to present and speak about my work confidently. These are things that you will have to do after university to people in and outside of the fashion industry, it has be invaluable for me to know what to do and how to present my brand in these situations.
Yes, Rochester was a great welcoming and friendly university. The environment is comfortable which I think is important aspects as you will be there for 3 years. The University has a great range of tools, machinery as well as technology, programs and software and printing facilities – we were never short of anything that we needed.
For current students I would say to use your time well, go to every lesson and every lecture. Soak up and make good use of everything around you because you will miss it once you leave. I would advice potential future students that both university and to work in the fashion industry is hard work so make sure you know that this is what you want and you have the drive and passion to see you through challenging times. All in all, it will be enjoyable and you’ll learn loads!

Common diseases — like heart disease, cancer, and diabetes, and even rare diseases, like hemophilia, cystic fibrosis, and sickle cell anemia — can run in families. A detailed and accurate family history is one of the most fundamental tools used in medicine. Once complete, it can show a picture of the health disorders that may have moved through your family.
A compilation of your family’s health history can be a powerful tool for you and your healthcare provider to use to predict any illnesses you may be predisposed to, such as heart disease, high blood pressure, diabetes, stroke, osteoporosis, asthma, or certain cancers (like breast, ovarian, and colorectal). A useful way to track your family’s health history online is with the Surgeon General’s Family Health Portrait web tool. If you prefer to gather and record your history by hand, a PDF version of the tool is also available in English and Spanish.
Your health history should cover as many first-degree relatives (parents, siblings, children) and second-degree relatives (grandparents, grandchildren, aunts, uncles, nieces, nephews, half-siblings) as possible. Include information about major illnesses, chronic diseases, mental disorders, and substance abuse problems. It’s also important to factor in the age at which each disease was diagnosed, the age when each relative died, and their cause of death.
Information can be collected via personal health records, medical records from doctors’ offices and hospitals, and birth or death certificates. These are usually found in the vital records office of the state in which the birth or death occurred.
It’s especially vital to note any occurrences of the same disease in more than one generation, multiple relatives developing the same condition, or more than one type of cancer in the same relative. Note any disease that’s uncommon in a certain gender, and any relative who developed or died of an illness at an early age.
If your family history indicates an unusually high risk of disease, your doctor may suggest genetic testing. For example, those with a strong family history of breast, ovarian, or colorectal cancer should consider genetic testing. BRCA1 and BRCA2 are the best-known cancer genes.
By sharing your genetic background with your doctor, you can get advice on preventative measures to decrease the risk of a disease, like more frequent screenings, changes in diet, increased activity, or weight loss. They may even be able to detect a problem in its early stage when therapy would be effective.

Visit a farm show: Come discover what rural America has to offer.
Carol Ekarius and her husband, photographer Ken Woodard, hobby ranch in Colorado. She is the author of several books, including Small-Scale Livestock Farming (Storey Books), and is a contributing editor to HF.
Looking for a new piece of equipment? Seeking some information on new crops? Just looking for a great way to spend a Saturday afternoon? Then visit a farm show, where dealers display their wares and university researchers share information.
A childhood memory: Every year my dad would pack the family in the car, and we’d head off to the city for a day at the annual boat show. My dad would study the latest sport-fishing boats from manufacturers like Bertram or Hatteras; my brother and I would stare with glazed eyes at the speedboats and dream of having our own Donzi or Boston Whaler. We’d all come home with a passel of glossy brochures and a stomach ache from all the sweet and spicy treats we gobbled at the show.
Rural America has its own version of these events in the farm show: Sprinkled throughout the country, farm shows give manufacturers and dealers a chance to show off their latest line of farm equipment, and ag researchers a chance to update their community about the latest innovations from university research programs. Audiences are often comprised of entire families, so farm-show managers schedule programs, like “The Imagination Station,” which features activities for kids (the insect petting zoo is my favorite), or “The Cut Flower Center,” that offers information on growing, selling and just enjoying cut flowers. Larger shows often include entertainment—ranging from cowboy poetry to tractor pulls—and many include exhibitions of antique farm equipment and historic farm life.
Farm shows are designed to meet the needs of a wide variety of producers across a range of disciplines. The National Farm Machinery Show, held each February at the Kentucky Fair and Exposition Center in Louisville,Ky., is one of the larger indoor shows in America, hosting close to 1,000 vendors and over 300,000 visitors, is a good example of this category. Other shows are geared toward particular crops, like the Georgia Peanut Show & Conference, or livestock species, such as the World Dairy Expo.
Traditionally, farm shows were aimed at large-scale, commercial farmers. They displayed “big iron”—tractors with tires taller than a man and combines the size of a house. Although vendors at farm shows still place a great deal of emphasis on the big-iron market, they recognize the changing demographics of rural America (the number of farms dropped nationwide in the last agricultural census-1997—but there was significant growth in the number of small farms—or those under 179 acres). To meet the needs of these small farmers, vendors are displaying a variety of equipment suited to the unique needs of small, diversified operations, and show managers are scheduling demonstrations and workshops on topics like composting and vegetable marketing, or establishing “driving ranges” that allow people to test drive skid-steer loaders or estate tractors.
Rock Springs, Penn., is home to Ag Progress Days. Located in south-central Pennsylvania, just several miles from Penn State’s main campus, Rock Springs blossoms into a small city for three days in mid-August when the university’s outlying agricultural campus hosts Ag Progress Days.
Over the years, the program aspect of Ag Progress Days has developed into a major emphasis. The 2002 theme for the College of Agriculture’s building was “Discover Your Future Today.” Aimed at prospective students, the program highlighted a variety of career options in agriculture. Alumni presented seminars throughout the day and interactive displays were always available.
Entertainment is a must for any family-oriented event. Sessions held in the College Exhibits theatre by master-storyteller Jan Kinney, engaged audiences with traditional tales, in addition to a special hands-on museum display from the Pasto Agricultural Museum entitled “Early Farm and Home Pork Processing and Preservation.” The “A-Maze-N Corn Field” maze (accessible by wheelchair and baby strollers) was great fun for young and old alike.
Horse lovers have become a major audience at farm shows, and Ag Progress Days has responded with a building dedicated to “The Equine Experience,” supported by Penn State, the Pennsylvania Quarter Horse Association and the American Quarter Horse Association (AQHA). The building gives visitors a chance to learn from veterinarians, extension specialists and equestrian clinicians from around Pennsylvania.
For the working farmers, workshops included a daily “Graziers Forum,” nutrient management workshops and tours of university research plots and area farms. A popular tour was of the university’s High Tunnel Vegetable Production research plot, which gave folks a chance to see vegetables, small fruits and cut flowers being grown in plastic tunnels. By using the tunnels, farmers can produce crops year round. A regular cycle of field machinery and farm safety demonstrations takes place during the show, giving farmers a chance to see the latest and best production agriculture technology in action.
For the small-scale farmer, visiting a farm show is a great way to learn about new tools and technologies or to shop for new equipment. Each show reflects the character of agriculture in the region where it is located: In the south you may learn about the latest precision agriculture tools for cotton; in Ohio you might learn about operating a small-scale blueberry farm; and in Pennsylvania, you’ll see dairy equipment (and lots of ice cream for sale). Most manufacturers now display a wide variety of equipment that’s designed with smaller landowners and part-time farmers in mind.
Steven Wiedmier, president of Tigerco Distribution, has been attending farm shows for more than 20 years, and has seen this change firsthand. “There are more small farms out there, and we’re doing our best to meet their demands. This market is willing to pay a little more for the right piece of equipment, but they want it to be low maintenance and user-friendly.
The equipment suited for small farms includes not only seed drills, but manure spreaders, haying equipment, tractor-mounted fencing tools, and the author’s favorite—”The Groundhog” by Concord Environmental Equipment. The Groundhog is a handy, “electric over hydraulic” loader attachment with a lift capacity of 300 pounds and 45 inches off the ground that’s designed to fit on a four-wheel ATV or utility vehicle. The available attachments include dump buckets, blades or prongs for forklift functions. To this hobby farmer, it looks like the perfect tool for handling manure, grading driveways, plowing snow or hauling firewood. What more could the small farmer want?

Even before the arrival of Christianity, Bled was a must-see destination for every foreign traveller visiting the territory of present-day Slovenia. It was an important centre because Bled Island was home to the temple of Živa, the Slavic goddess of love. Bled boasts a fairy-tale image with its lake, island and magnificent mountains that surround it, which undoubtedly contributed to its importance throughout history – as a religious, cultural and tourist centre.
Tourism development in Bled began with the arrival of the Swiss doctor Arnold Rikli. He was a natural healer whose motto was “sun, water, air, freedom”. He was looking for the perfect place to put his motto into practice, and found it in Bled. After his first visit in 1852, he developed a type of healing we now know as wellness. At that time Bled was still a part of the Austrian Empire, and news of this development travelled fast across these lands, attracting guests from near and far. Ever since then, Bled has been a tourism and sports centre that has also developed into a renowned destination with a number of international cultural events, and below we present four of the more prominent ones.
This April, Bled hosted the special 50th International Writers’ Meeting PEN, which was attended by a record 90 guests and representatives of 35 PEN centres. Bled meetings have always served as an intermediary between the East and West. In addition to their cultural function, they have a strong diplomatic role owing to the various social and political issues that are discussed. This year’s event centred around the slogan “Wall, Fence, Border”. PEN meetings are open to the public in order to bring literature to the wider community. The programme of this year’s PEN meeting was held in eight additional locations across Slovenia.
Of course, the international PEN meeting is not the only cultural event hosted in Bled every year. Bled is also a town of music. The Okarina festival has been held every year at the end of July and beginning of August since it was established in 1991 by Leo Ličof, its conceptual father. The festival has become the largest world music festival in Slovenia, and one of the biggest in Europe. It has come a long way from a one-day event in 1991 to an 11-day festival in 2017, and it continues to grow. Many people find it a great reason to visit Bled.
For over 20 years, Bled has been hosting the summer Bled Festival of classical music, which has recently been broadening its repertoire with other genres. The Festival Hall, Bled Castle, St Martin’s Church and a few other venues are filled each year with beautiful and outstanding classical music. The diverse programme of various genres is always accompanied by numerous masterclasses and workshops, where masters from all over the world share their knowledge with aspiring young musicians. In the past twenty years the festival has seen over two thousand young musicians take the classes, some of whom are now internationally acclaimed musicians.
All of these Bled festivals with a long-standing tradition are an inspiration for other events and different festivals that have yet to find their place in the festival world. A less visible but equally superb and interesting one is AS Music Festival, which was launched in 2014. Why AS? AS are the initials of Adolphe Sax, the inventor of the instrument we now know as the saxophone. AS Festival features concerts, workshops, masterclasses and teacher seminars in order to bring this magnificent instrument closer to those who have only just started to explore it, or others who have made it a part of their professional or private lives. The fourth festival, which took place in February 2018, presented ten saxophonists from Europe and the USA, as well as five saxophone ensembles from various parts of Europe.
Although cultural festivals predominate in Bled, they are far from the only ones. There’s the Hot Air Balloon Festival, the Chess Festival and the Water Festival, to name but a few. A myriad of meetings, festivals, symposiums and other cultural events place Bled on the cultural map of both Slovenia and Europe as a whole. Such events are increasingly valued for the ability to bring pure joy to both audiences and participants, and thus it’s no wonder guests and performers keep returning.
Bled is so much more than a lake and “an island in the middle of the lake”, as is described in a song by Slavko Avsenik, a legend of Slovenian popular folk music. Bled is an image of paradise enriched by art and culture. Nature bestowed everything upon Bled. But art and culture have played their part in turning this paradise into a place where many are drawn to return again and again.

Do I need to even go any further? No. And as H.R., my trusted aide-de-camp and chief of staff, said, “Boy, did you call it.” Yep. And I’m not surprised. “Thirty years ago, Bonnie Svarstad and Chester Bond of the School of Pharmacy at the University of Wisconsin-Madison discovered an interesting pattern in the use of sedatives at nursing homes in the south of the state.
“Patients entering church-affiliated nonprofit homes were prescribed drugs roughly as often as those entering profit-making ‘proprietary’ institutions. But patients in proprietary homes received, on average, more than four times the dose of patients at nonprofits.
Oh, my gosh. Folks, when I am right, I am right. When I nail it, I nail it. Now, you’ll never hear this being discussed anywhere. You’ll never see CNN do a panel discussion for four hours on how Limbaugh accurately predicted an assault on the profit sector in health care. Well, where’s Obama? Yeah, the woman on the ABC primetime special who asked if her — that still gives me the creeps, that ABC primetime special back in 2009 where an American citizen, a woman, stood up and asked the president of the United States — this is before we even had Obamacare — if her 100-year-old mother would be given a pacemaker. I tell you what’s creepy about it is what have we become? A citizen has to go on a network TV show and hopefully get the chance to ask the president whether or not he will approve her mom getting a pacemaker.
What business is it of his? But there she was asking the question. Her real point was (paraphrasing exchange), “Look, my mom is a hundred years old, and she really likes to live. She got a great spirit, a great will to live. Will you factor that in when making these kinds of decisions?” And Obama said, “No. That’s too nebulous. The will to live? How do you assess that? No, probably the compassionate thing to do is just give them a pill.
“Zone ’em out for their remaining, short moments on the planet and give them all love you can and then wave good-bye at the last moment. That’s it.” And all because they don’t have the money. The government’s gonna run it and they don’t have the money. So, anyway, “A shareholder might even applaud the creativity with which profit-seeking institutions go about seeking profit. But the consequences of this pursuit might not be so great for other stakeholders in the system — patients, for instance.
“One study found that patients’ mortality rates spiked,” that means they went up for those of you in Rio Linda, “when nonprofit hospitals switched to become profit-making, and their staff levels declined.” So get this: Profit-making leads to more death. Hospitals seeking profit equals a higher mortality rate. It’s right here in the New York Times. “These profit-maximizing tactics,” so now seeking profit is a tactic, “point to a troubling conflict of interest that goes beyond the private delivery of health care.
“They raise a broader, more important question: How much should we rely on the private sector to satisfy broad social needs?” Folks, this is just the first four paragraphs of this New York Times story, and it’s all here. Everything that our future holds is right here in these four photographs. Profit in the health care system, bad. Nonprofits, good. Private sector medical care, bad. Government-sector medical care with no profit, good.
Private sector profit seeking health care, higher death rate. Nonprofit medical care, lower death rate. It was so easily predicted. It was easy for me to see. Some people still ask me when I make a prediction (a really, really, really wacko prediction), “Why are you making that prediction?” Because I know the left. I know who these people are, and I know what they’re going to do before they do. I know what they’re thinking before they’re thinking it.
I know what they’re feeling before they’re feeling it and I know where all this is gonna go particularly if they’re not opposed and even if they are opposed they’re still gonna go there. So right here it is: “Health Care and Profits, a Poor Mix,” and it isn’t gonna be long before the question is gonna posed exactly as I posited. It gets very close in this story. Why should there be profit in making people well? And if seeking profit causes more people to die, then what has happened to our country?
So the entire backbone/foundation of capitalism is under assault yet again, and I’m convinced people that read the New York Times are the equivalent of low-information voters. All they know is what’s in the Times. They’re low-information voters. They’re gonna eat this up. They’re gonna eat it pick up, and they’re gonna be quoting it. It’s gonna be all over Twitter and Facebook. It’s gonna cascade all over this country. It’s gonna dovetail quite nicely with where everybody is culturally and emotionally in the country right now.
Everybody’s hurting, the economy’s stagnating, but we all want to be well. Why should people be making a profit while they administer health care? It’s not fair! It’s greedy! It’s selfish! And it leads to some people not even being treated. If they can’t pay, if they don’t have insurance, that means no profit. That means they don’t get treated. That means they die! See what capitalism does? It kills!
We’re on the edge of this becoming the new reality.
“Another result of for-profit health care is that it has become far more lucrative to ‘treat’ patients than it is to cure them.” Well, hey, remember Obama who actually got this ball rolling way back early on in the health care debate? Obama accused doctors of needlessly doing tonsillectomies! He accused doctors of needlessly doing a lot of surgeries. I think it was amputation. Yeah, he said that some doctors did amputations unnecessarily just to be able to charge for it.
And he’s had similar cutting comments about the insurance industry in health care. So he is a willing participant in getting his ball rolling. So there you have it, and it’s gonna snowball. Now, you ask me, “What can we do to stop it?” We gotta take over the education system, folks. We’ve gotta reassert ourselves in the public education of this country. Because that, I think, is the root of where, for example, capitalism being misunderstood began.
RUSH: That’s right. Obama made two allegations, that doctors are taking tonsils out for money instead of diagnosing it as allergies. Tonsillectomies because there’s more profit. Doctors choose amputation because surgeons get paid more than physicians. Those are both YouTube entries if you wanted to check out Obama actually saying it. So I’m just telling you the all-out assault is on now as it has been. This is really just the next phase in the assault on private sector health care. And private sector health care in this country gave the world the undisputed greatest health care system in the world. It’s under assault, and it is about finished. It has been effectively nationalized. I think it is finished.
But with the left, nothing is ever over. They continue to hammer nails in the coffin after the patient’s dead and buried. So now nailing health care and continuing to justify what Obama’s done by assaulting profit in health care as the reason more people die in this country is now underway. And so people say, “Okay, you can tell us all these rotten things. What do we do?” I’m telling you, folks, there has to be an all-out assault. First, the Republican Party’s gonna have to recognize what it’s up against, and they don’t. I don’t think they’re willing to admit who they’re up against, what they’re up against, because they don’t really want to do what’s necessary to fight it. My honestly held view.
The second thing is, an all-out assault is gonna have to made on the minds and hearts of low-information voters. They are the product of a culture that’s been debased and simplified and corrupted basically by the public education system and a multicultural curriculum. It’s taken a while. I mean, this didn’t expect overnight and fixing it isn’t gonna happen overnight.
That’s what Obama told Boehner, according to Boehner.
Well, makes sense, doesn’t it?
Obama, I’m sorry, also believes that the problem with health care is profit. Profit adds unnecessary cost. Profit adds unfair cost and expense. And it’s unfair. Why should anybody make money making somebody well? Why should anybody make money on health care? There will be a lot of: “Why should doctors be richer than anybody else? Why should doctors be the guys have two houses?
That’s where we’re headed, and Obama has set the table.
RUSH: Here is Bill, East Pennsylvania. I’m glad you called, sir. Great to have you with us.
CALLER: I just wanted to say that I think the obvious comeback for doctors and other caregivers to the idea of working nonprofit would be that they be excused from paying off the loans that they accrued from getting their education.
RUSH: Interesting point. Doctors accrue a lot of debt in their education. And so if doctors are not gonna be permitted to earn any money practicing medicine, they should be exempt from paying off their student loans.
RUSH: By the way, what about this. If we’re gonna take the profit motive out of medicine, why should there be any profit in teaching a young child to learn?
CALLER: There you go. Correct.
RUSH: Why should there be any profit in lecturing students in the process of educating them? Why should there be any profit for universities? Do you realize how many people can’t go to school because of how much it costs? Do you realize how many people choose not to because they don’t want to incur the student loan? Can you imagine how much less a higher education would cost if there were no profit? Will somebody ever advance that notion? See, the education institution in this country is profoundly left, profoundly liberal. It is loved, adored, and appreciated.
In fact, when you hear all of the complaints about private sector businesses raising prices, Big Oil, Big Pharmaceutical, Big Retail, and you hear politicians railing against all these price increases, railing against profit, railing against exploitation, railing against obscene profit in the case of Big Oil, tuition goes up every year. You never hear these politicians or anybody in the media rip the high cost of an education. What do you hear? Instead of the high cost being criticized or ripped and the people involved in charging those prices ripped and criticized, we hear of more creative ways to finance the expense.
We look for the federal government to take over the student loan program, making it more affordable, supposedly. Never once are tuition increases criticized the way Big Oil, Big Pharmaceutical, Big Retail, Big Food, are criticized. And the reason is, is that the education system in this country is the province of the left, and it is where they do their indoctrination. And the people who do it are gonna be rewarded for it. They’re going to be paid. They will never take the profit out of education. Their own people, the professors, the grad assistants, the teaching assistants, they will be paid. The university professors, presidents, they will be paid.
Everybody involved in education, i.e., the indoctrination of young liberals, will be paid. They’ll be paid pretty well, and they’ll get tenure. Can’t fire ’em. And nobody will ever complain about it. Put let a CEO at Big Oil have a golden parachute, and all hell will break loose. So they protect their own, and they ensure that their own get paid. The stimulus bill, the first massive almost trillion-dollar stimulus of Obama in 2008, do you know where most of it went? Teachers. Teachers unions. In Wisconsin, 75% of the stimulus that Wisconsin got went to public sector employees and primarily teachers.
Now, there are bunch of reasons for this. One is the money-laundering scheme that is public sector unions and their relationship to the Democrat Party. The way it works is very simple. You have public sector unions and the union members pay dues. The dues are collected by union leaders, and the dues are what fund Democrat campaigns. The dues fund campaign ads, campaign donations. But there aren’t any dues if the teacher doesn’t work. So we had an economy where unemployment was skyrocketing. The stimulus was to ensure that dues paying union members were not laid off, so that the money-laundering scheme could condition.
The vast majority of the stimulus money went to teachers and other public sector union jobs. It didn’t go to creating work on roads, bridges, repairs, private sector jobs. It was simply a money grab presented to the country under false pretense. It was a way for Obama to write the Democrat Party a check for $787 billion. So the point being, when they assault profit in health care, when they assault profit everywhere in the private sector, which they’re doing, they will not assault profit in education. They will not assault profit that results in anybody in education being paid a very high page. They will protect their own because they know that the education system is what is enabling them to advance their agenda relatively easily all across the country.
RUSH: So the profit motive, if you’re just joining us, I made a prediction last year that it wouldn’t be long before the left started attacking the profit in health care, under the theory, the belief that it’s immoral for there to be profit taking in curing people who are sick. Why should somebody get rich making somebody else well? Why should anybody profit from the illness of a fellow citizen? Why should that happen? And, right on cue, the New York Times with a story today raising that very premise and quoting people talking about how immoral it is.
They even say in the New York Times story that nonprofit hospitals do better. That there is a higher death rate, mortality rate in for-profit hospitals ’cause they turn people away who can’t pay. The nonprofits, they’re just wonderful people, and they treat everybody, and they have a lower death rate. So the push is on for celebrating nonprofits. You know, there really is no such thing as a nonprofit. All a nonprofit is, is an organization that claims on its books at the end of every year that it didn’t make any money. But the people that work at nonprofits score like bandits. I would think if they’re gonna be honest, a nonprofit, nobody should make anything. They should be reimbursed for the expenses involved, and that’s it.
But the people that run nonprofits earn lots of money. They have nice new buildings. They have cars. They have expense allowances. The low-information voter thinks nonprofit are people sacrificing for the common good and they’re not burning any money and they’re not getting rich. Why do so many people want to go into ’em? I’ll give you an example of a nonprofit. You know what, nonprofits don’t pay taxes. The Harvard Endowment is a nonprofit. They claim to be. The Harvard Endowment makes about $10 billion in profit every year. They don’t pay a penny in taxes. Some people say that Harvard is the ultimate hedge fund, but Harvard has had a pretty good year. They’re returning a 21% return on their investments. It has an endowment of about $40 billion. That’s what’s invested.
People donate to Harvard, it goes to the Harvard Endowment, it’s there for a rainy day. And when the rainy day comes, they never spend it. They ask for a federal bailout, or they ask for more donations. A lot of nonprofits are that way. They have this big pool of money for a rainy day when the economy goes south or whatever, but they never spend it. So Harvard, they have a return on their investment. The endowment is invested, it returns 21%, $10 billion in profit, no taxes on it. I guarantee you the people that work at the Harvard Endowment make a lot of money.
Now, here we are with the New York Times today, nonprofits. They are morally superior. They don’t exploit people. They don’t earn a profit on the misery of others like doctors do and hospitals do. And don’t forget, Obama accusing doctors of performing needless surgeries and amputations just to charge more. He did that in 2009. It won’t be long, we’re gonna see bumper stickers, “Profit kills.” Mark my words. And you know where it’s gonna happen next? In fact, I’m surprised it didn’t happen here first. When I predicted that profit would be attacked in health care, I also said that profit would be attacked in food. Everybody has to eat. That isn’t an option.
Sometimes going to the doctor, not getting treated, that’s an option. But everybody has to eat to survive. You have to eat to live. Well, if that’s the case, why should anybody profit on that? That’s something we have no choice over. We have to eat. Why should there be profit in it? We shouldn’t the people who provide food or work in that industry just provide it for what it costs them? That would be the compassionate thing. That would be the understanding thing. Why rip people off? Why exploit, which is what profit is. Profit is exploitative.
And that takes me to Harold Meyerson in the Washington Post. He’s all upset at Obama’s fiscal cliff avoidance bill where supposedly the rich got a tax increase. Meyerson properly points out (paraphrasing), “No, no, the real rich didn’t. The asset rich don’t have any income, therefore they don’t pay any income taxes. The real rich live off of profits, capital gains. Capital gain’s a profit on an investment, and that is not taxed hardly at all compared to income.” The left is never happy.
Curtis, West Jefferson, Ohio. Great to have you on the program, sir. Hello.
CALLER: Hey, Rush, glad to speak to you again.
CALLER: It’s an honor to talk to you. My comment is on what you just finished talking about, profits, you know, doctors making a profit. You know, they spent the money to get the education. They chose that profession to ply, you know, to make their way through the world. Why should a plumber make a profit then? You know, it’s life threatening if they let septic tank back up and all that stuff comes up in your yard and makes a terrible mess, somebody could die. Why should they make a profit?
RUSH: Because they’re unionized and unions are protected. And unions are the result of profit seekers. Unions are the way the average guy gets even with evil corporateers. The unions are godsends. The unions have a special status, because they represent the rising up of the average man against the evil corporateers and profiteers. And so the plumber or the union guy is simply getting even with the evil management people and the owners. And that’s why they are protected.
CALLER: Well, I don’t see the difference between, you know, like I say, even a mechanic. Your car gets a wobbly frond end, you could die, you could crash and die. Why should a mechanic make a profit? They’re not union.
RUSH: Well, once this ball gets fully rolling, you’re gonna have people asking these kinds of questions.
CALLER: I truly believe it.
RUSH: Until it affects them, and then they’re gonna want an exemption.
CALLER: Well, I don’t work for a union now, but I’ve been in two different unions, three different ones as a matter of fact throughout my lifetime, and I don’t see where they helped me at all. I ended up kicked to the curb with 350 other people, you know, lost my income because of unions.
RUSH: They may not-a helped you. That really isn’t the point. The point is what the union represents image-wise, brand-wise to the left. The union, not the individual union member, the union itself — and I guess this might descend to the union member — but the union represents the rising up of the exploited common man, the hoi polloi, and after being exploited and used and taken advantage of and underpaid, overworked, the union represents triumphing over evil greed. And therefore whatever the unions end up with is moral. Whatever the unions end up with is justified.
The left is gonna protect itself. The left is never gonna subject itself to these cockamamie theories, just like in education. But the real point of this, folks, is that all of these things are being taught. Your kids are going to school and they’re hearing this. Your kids are growing up thinking this. What it means is that they are simply much more easily reached as future Democrat voters, as future believers in the moral superiority of government, of command-and-control economies, of Central Planning, making sure everything’s fair, making sure everything is equal and just and all of that. See, all of this is not really oriented toward anything other than the never-ending expansion of government and government power and, of course, the people in it.
RUSH: Anson, Texas. Hello, James. It’s great to have you with us, sir. Hello.
CALLER: Rush, it’s a pleasure talking to you. Yeah, what my comment was is that I used to work for one of the largest orthopedic companies in the world out in New Mexico. And one of the, quote, unquote, “nonprofit hospitals” one year made more money than the for-profit hospital. And what it basically boils down to is the only thing that’s nonprofit about a nonprofit hospital is that they don’t pay taxes. They don’t take deductions, they don’t do anything.
CALLER: Their CEOs get paid big bonuses for hitting numbers, too, you know?
RUSH: Exactly right. What happens is at the end of the year, the books balance and there’s no profit. They’re not allowed to make profit. Therefore, they pay no taxes. But the people that work at ’em do pretty well, particularly the people that run them do extremely well. Nonprofits are rising in popularity, growing in popularity. In fact, take a stroll to your nearby college campus and just grab a random student. Ask ’em, “What do you want to do? Why are you here?” I guarantee you you’ll be surprised at the number of them who tell you they want to good work for a nonprofit.
Now, as far as the student’s concerned, the reason they want to go for a nonprofit is because there’s morality there. There’s no profit. There’s just good works. It’s nothing but compassion. It’s nothing but people who care. There aren’t any concerns about people making money. There is no exploitation. There’s no ripping people off. It’s just… It’s clean, and it’s really compassionate. And that’s how nonprofits are sold. It’s morally superior to people engaged in profit. But the people who work at nonprofits, what do they do? They go out and raise money. They sell things. They ask for donations.
They live off of other people.
They live quite well off of other people, in fact.
They spend much more than they take in. It’s just that they expense it all on their taxes. I mean, they file. They have to file for 501(c)(3) or whatever the form is for nonprofit. They’re not allowed to be involved in politics, even though they are. They’re not allowed to do a lot of things, like make profit, but they do. But he’s exactly right. The people that work for ’em make big money, and they drive nice cars, and they have nice houses. You gotta spend the money somewhere.
You can’t show a profit at the end of the year no matter what you raise. So everything’s an expense. The salary’s an expense, whatever accrues to people. It can be (and not all of them are) a pretty nice scam. But they sell themselves on the notion that they’re morally superior, that they’re not oriented toward money, that they’re not doing what they do to earn money. They really care about social justice and a level playing field, helping the poor. They really care, and that’s why they’re attractive to young skulls full of mush.
RUSH: Okay, west Massachusetts up next on the phones. This is Jim. Great to have you on the EIB Network, sir. Hello.
RUSH: — like they will on you.
RUSH: In fact, you know what the regime is actually doing? I’ve heard this. Maybe you know for sure. I’ve heard that the regime is forgiving certain doctor student loans if they’ll agree to locate in certain places the government wants them to go. Is that true?
CALLER: Yeah, it is true, but unfortunately you end up working for half the pay at those places. I did the calculations. In the end it wasn’t worth it for me.
RUSH: I hate to tell you, but you started out by telling us how much your education costs.
RUSH: Now, there was a time in America where you’d be admired for 13 years of work and $220,000 that you had to pay back, and you’d be admired because you undertook that ’cause you love it and you want to help people and you want to make them well and you want to serve your fellow man. Today, you get no sympathy for that.
RUSH: Right. And now you have the president of the United States alleging that people like you perform unnecessary procedures for profit.
CALLER: — ready to jump on me with a frivolous lawsuit.
RUSH: Hell, even if you don’t make a mistake, you run the risk of that.
RUSH: I know, man, you’re not in a protected class. You’re in a target class. Like a lot of us are. And that’s what this administration has spawned. Some are protected; some are targets. Successful people who are earning are targets. They’re not paying their fair share. And nobody made you spend that 220. Nobody made you borrow it. You want credit, you want people thinking you’re some great guy because you went to this expense and spent all this time when all you do is profit for making people well. That’s the attitude being conjured by people. It makes me sick. It infuriates me. I’m glad you called. I appreciate it.

Judges are accustomed — and willing — to deal with the interests and joint care of children in divorce. Many a divorce sets up children as the battlefield on which Mom and Dad (and their parents and retinue) stomp, posture, skirmish, and lay seige, as they jockey for position with each other and with the court.
What happens when the “children” have four legs? When both the husband and the wife have loved and lavished attention on a cat, or more often, a dog? I empathize with these people.
It’s not at all uncommon for a divorce decree to deal with a pet. That’s not a problem, and if there’s any doubt about who will end up with the cherished dog or cat, the divorce decree should resolve it.
What won’t work, and what will embarrass your lawyer if you try it, is any kind of continuing custodial arrangement for a pet. I know. I did try it many years ago. The judge’s precise words were “I ain’t messing with visitation for a dog. Get that outta there.” So I did.
Judges are historically overburdened. Anything they can do to make their workload more manageable that doesn’t compromise their legal duty, they will do. And no judge I know will allow himself or herself to be forced into the role of enforcing custody or visitation of an animal. Ownership they can deal with, and enforce. Visitation? No.
If you and your spouse are not cooperative, and if your pet is becoming a contentious issue, you could always agree that NEITHER of you will take possession. Agree on some trusted third party who will own your pet and will parcel out time to both of you according to a schedule on which you and the other spouse agree. It’s a tad Solomonic, but it can work if you and your spouse are deadlocked on the dog. I also suspect that it would be a short-lived arrangement. My instincts tell me that, once you get away from the bloody combat of divorce, you may agree on where the dog or cat should live.
I don’t know for sure, because I have remarkably little contact with my clients after they get through their divorce, but I suspect that doggie visitation rights, once extended, are rarely used. We move on. Other priorities intervene. The big brown eyes that gave us such joy become a murky memory. And that’s probably healthy.

When the University of Minnesota began work on constructing a new $96 million combined Heat & Power Plant, they knew they’d need a reliable partner to conduct heavy transport of large objects from one place to another – and there’s no better company to serve the Golden Gophers than Vic’s.
We were contracted to transport a 225,800-pound General Electric natural gas-fueled combustion turbine from an over-the-road transporter to the power block. Additionally, we installed 10 Heat Recovery Steam Generator (HRSG) boiler modules (with some weighing up to 100,000 pounds) through the roof of the plant.
After the combustion turbine was offloaded, we transferred it by crane to one of our Goldhofer trailers. From there, a 550-ton hydraulic crane hoisted the turbine to our slide track system and jacked the turbine to its foundation pads. From our extensive fleet of equipment, we selected a Manitowoc 440-ton lattice boom crawler crane to successfully set all of the HRSG modules in a confined work site. Utilizing a slide track for those module installs, the crane lowered them onto its platform and slid them down to the final location. Once in place, hydraulic jacks lowered them to the foundation and the install was complete.
From a heavy transport to the heavy lift in a confined work space, Vic’s came through with a job well done.

Eureka! I find one — and then another, so I buy one for a friend who was born the same week. And I can’t pass up another issue featuring 50 years of LIFE magazine covers. I’m pleased with my treasures.
We’ve been to Sonoma County several times, but Healdsburg (pronounced HEELDSburg), an hour’s drive north of the town of Sonoma, is new territory.
I’m sorry we waited so long to visit.
The town of 11,000 is a little piece of heaven nestled among the 100 wineries of Alexander Valley, Chalk Hill, Dry Creek Valley and Russian River Valley. If you know your appellations, you know that this is serious wine and foodie country, and we hope to learn and enjoy. We decide to ease into it and explore the town first.
Not far from the antique store is Healdsburg’s 1-acre central plaza, named by Travel + Leisure Magazine last year as one of “America’s Most Beautiful Town Squares.” We don’t disagree, but strangely, we’ve heard more than one local make the same apology for the plaza’s size — “It’s not as big as Sonoma’s,” which is eight acres.
Nevertheless, we find it completely delightful and plenty big enough.
People of all ages and colors are hanging out by the fountain, eating lunch or just lingering on one of the two dozen-plus benches. They seem to relish their moments in the shade of the redwoods and Canary Island date palms (planted in 1897).
Bordering the plaza are boutiques, restaurants, wine-tasting rooms, hotels and art galleries. I’m not much of a shopper, but find some of the one-of-a-kind merchandise in the windows hard to resist.
It was the Gold Rush of 1849 that brought Harmon Heald to California from Ohio.
Like most fortune seekers of the time, he never struck it rich.
But five years later, Heald built a general store and post office, around which a small settlement grew.
He hired a surveyor to lay out the central plaza with streets and 85 lots, and a town of 300 was born.
Hoods tells us more about Healdsburg history during our visit to the museum.
Hoods has worked for the museum since 1996, first as a part-time curatorial assistant.
The fast romance is understandable.
The museum lives in a former Carnegie Library — a grand stone building with beautiful interior woodwork and an elegant staircase that one might not expect to find in a town of this size. Its exhibits do the architecture justice. Permanent displays tell of the town’s history, including its Native American roots. (Don’t miss the collection of exquisite handmade baskets.
We check an excellent exhibit on Healdsburg’s connection to the Civil War. The current exhibit, 19th century utopian communities in Sonoma County, runs through Aug. 3.
Vineyards surround Healdsburg and there are many tasting rooms, both in town and at the wineries. For information on the town, visit healdsburg.com.

Help, I'm sober and I can't get drunk!
A grandmother in Memphis was jailed this week after officials say she called 911 for "police assistance in getting a beer," according to documents obtained by The Smoking Gun.
Rosie Pate, 68, told local news station WREG that the allegations are false. “I have lived to be 68 years old and I never dialed no police to bring me beer,” she told the station.
The criminal complaint states that Pate got into an argument with her granddaughter and slapped her because she wouldn't buy Pate a beer. According to WMC-TV, the granddaughter had a scratch under her eye.
Pate told WREG she called the cops and told them about the argument, but she wasn't asking them for alcohol.
Nevertheless, she was charged with domestic assault and making a non-emergency 911 call.

LONDON, ENGLAND--Covering a 43-acre site and spanning no less than nine London postcode areas, the Westfield London retail complex is set to become one of the city’s biggest attractions, with up to 60,000 people a day estimated to visit.
Complementing over 260 retailers, 50 places to eat and a 14-screen cinema (due to open in 2009), one of Westfield’s outstanding features is The Atrium, a 6,500m2 rectangular central area that will host a wide range of entertainment, including live performances and exhibitions.
As befits Westfield’s status as London’s most modern destination, a state-of-the-art sound, lighting and video system that can be used and then stored away as needed, has been specified to combine ultimate quality and flexibility with unsurpassed reliability.
“They want this to be a multipurpose space that enjoys an audio quality that reflects Westfield’s status as an ultra-modern facility,” says Lee Dennison, project manager for Surrey-based Delta Sound, which was awarded the contract to design and install The Atrium’s audio system.
In overall charge of the project was Westfield’s technical manager for The Atrium, Simon Jones, who worked tirelessly to ensure that everything about the project was designed and installed to get the best and most versatile result. He appointed The Rigging Partnershiip to work in close conjunction with Delta Sound to install rigging points throughout the ceiling, providing a range of hanging points and possible truss configurations including standard lengths, figures of eight and circles as required for any given event.
Lee and Delta’s technical manager Daren Hurst also worked very closely with manufacturers EM Acoustics, Lab.gruppen and Yamaha to design a complex networked audio solution, with digital EtherSound installed alongside analogue lines.
Facilities panels are located in The Atrium’s floor, which allow the audio network to be accessed in a variety of locations. Together with the many rigging points, this infrastructure means that the space can be set up in a variety of ways for the different types of live event.
Managing the system is a Yamaha DME24 digital mix engine, through which all the audio is routed and which also acts as an interface between The Atrium and Westfield’s analogue background music and evacuation systems.
Another challenge was to get the right results in a space with many hard, reflective surfaces. To cope with this, Lee specified EM Acoustics’ brand new HALO line array loudspeakers, driven by Lab.gruppen amplifiers.
The HALO system comprises eight enclosures per side, which can be flown to broadcast down the length of The Atrium, across it, as a cluster either side, or at the entrance end.
A comprehensive Lab.gruppen amplification package, comprising four PLM10000, one PL6000 and three FP2600 is used to drive the system.
“The idea is that the system fires directly into the event space, not out or into the upper balconies. It’s focussed down the room and the delays kick in for vocal, so it will be a very neat, compact sound within the space,” says Lee.

Candlestick charting appeared around four centuries ago in Japan. Candlestick signals depict changes in investor psychology and it works well with all market with all time frames. In order to create a candlestick chart, you must have a data set that contains open, high, low and close values for each time period you want to display. The filled portion of the candlestick is called “the body. The long thin lines above and below the body represent the high/low range and are called “shadows”. The high is marked by the top of the upper shadow and the low by the bottom of the lower shadow. If the stock closes higher than its opening price, a filled (green) candlestick is drawn with the bottom of the body represents the opening price and the top of the body representing the closing price. If the stock closes lower than its opening price, a filled (red) candlestick is drawn with the bottom of the body representing the closing price and the top of the body representing the opening price.
The Doji signal represents indecision and more powerful when market is in oversold and overbought conditions. The formations take place when open and the close of the stock is almost at the same price level. At the top of an uptrend, when prices are in overbought conditions, it cautions the trader to start booking in profits. At the bottom of a downtrend, when prices are in oversold conditions, it signals the trader to that bear market is getting tired.
The Hammer signal is found at the bottom of a downtrend. The lower shadow must be at least twice the size of the body. There should be no upper shadow or a very small upper shadow. The colour of the body does not matter, but a white body would be more positive than a black body. In order to make sure the bulls retain control of the stock, one needs to verify strength the next day. If on the next day, the stock closes down, the Hammer signal should not be relied upon as a sign of reversal at that point in the trend.
The Hanging Man signal is found at the top of an uptrend. The lower shadow must be at least twice the size of the body. There should be no upper shadow or a very small upper shadow. The colour of the body does not matter, but a black body would be more positive than a white body. It is Similar to the Inverted Hammer.
The Inverted Hammer signal is found at the bottom of a downtrend. The Upper shadow must be at least twice the size of the body. The day after the Inverted Hammer is formed, one should witness continued buying. There should be no lower shadow or a very small lower shadow. The colour of the body does not matter, but a white body would be more positive than a black body. The Inverted Hammer signal signifies the downtrend may be over. The key is to see who controls the stock on the following day. If the stock closes with a good bullish candle, the bears will give up.
The Shooting Star signal is found at the top of an uptrend. The Upper shadow must be at least twice the size of the body. There should be no lower shadow or a very small lower shadow. The colour of the body does not matter, but a black body would be more positive than a white body. If the bears manage to close the stock lower the next day, the bulls will generally step away and the uptrend will reverse.
The Bullish Engulfing signal is found at the bottom of a downtrend. It is up day candle opening below the Close of the previous day and closing above the Open of the previous day’s red candle, completely engulfing the previous day range.
The Bearish Engulfing signal is found at the top of an uptrend. It is down day candle opening above the Close of the previous day and closing below the Open of the previous day’s green candle, completely engulfing the previous day range.
The Piercing signal is found at the bottom of a downtrend. The second day of the signal should be a white candle opening below the low of the previous day and closing more than halfway into the body of the previous day’s black candle. The bears are having fun in the downtrend. Then one day the price gaps down. There is panic in the street. Everybody wants OUT! But that is the exact point smart money starts buying. They manage to close the candle more than halfway into the previous day’s black candle. If on the next day the bulls can hold control, the bears will move away and the downtrend will have a high chance of reversal.
The Bullish Harami signal is found at the bottom of a downtrend. The second day of the signal should be a white candle opening above the Close of the previous day and closing below the Open of the previous day’s black candle. During a downtrend, there comes a time when the investors who have held long hoping for a reversal, finally give in. There is panic selling in the street. At the end of the day one can witness along black candle. However, smart money is waiting for this opportunity. The next day, the stock gaps up and bulls start piling in. The shorts are nervous now. The bulls manage to close the candle higher into the previous day’s body. If the next day, the bulls confirm their stay, the bears will move away and the downtrend will have a high probability of reversal.
The Bearish Harami signal is found at the top of an uptrend. The second day of the signal should be a dark candle opening below the Close of the previous day and closing above the Open of the previous day’s white candle. It is just opposite to Bullish Harami except it forms at the top of uptrend.
The Morning Star signal is found at the bottom of a downtrend, which foretells of good morning to come, this signal too suggests that higher stock prices could be on the way. The first day of the signal must be a long dark body. The second day must be a day of indecision. The third day should be a long white candle reaching at least halfway into the body of the first day’s dark candle.
The Evening Star signal is found at the top of an uptrend, which foretells of bad things (night) to come, this signal too suggests that lower stock prices could be on the way. The first day of the signal must be a long white body. The second day must be a day of indecision. The third day should be a long dark candle reaching down at least halfway into the body of the first day’s white candle.
Where to Look for candlestick Patterns?
Note: There is no any significance or importance of candlesticks signal at other places. So readers are advised to clearly analyse with the help of other technical tools before relying on these patterns.
All two or three combination of candlesticks is variations of one of the single candlestick Hammer, Hanging Man, Shooting Star or Inverted Hammer. All four candlesticks can be named as Pin Bar or Rejection Bar. Look at above case A, two candles represents bearish engulfing; in case of daily chart this will represent market behaviour of two days. When you observe carefully and record open, high, low and close of two days and then draw a candlestick this will become a pin bar reversal so called inverted hammer or shooting star. In case Two candles form a single Hammer or Hanging Man which is also a pin bar or rejection bar.
So you don’t have to remember each candlestick, Just focus on art of reading candlestick.

Overall the motherboard performed extremely well with solid performance out of the box and consistent scores while overclocked. This is not uncommon for a product that is designed to be used in extreme conditions but, the execution is often a deciding factor. The Maximus X Formula is an interesting motherboard in that it comes with all of the high-end overclocking features to support LN2 overclocking and a VRM borrowed from the Maximus IX Apex but with a subdued layout designed for gaming and high-end system builds. You can see this in PCI Express layout designed for dual card SLI/Crossfire. There is a third slot but is using bandwidth from the chipset which works but, isn’t ideal.
The full coverage shroud is also a popular option with system builders giving them a canvas to use when adding color and graphics to their builds. The plastic accepts paint quite well and the full metal backplate really completes the entire design even if it is hidden behind most motherboard trays. Of course if the shroud is left stock it hides all of the “ugly” electrical components keeping things nice, neat and clean. Live Dash and the watercooled VRM help to round out the visual features that really reinforce how the Maximus X Formula should be used by accentuating what is important to builders.
The UEFI layout is quite good and displays exactly what you need to see. This is an important feature given that many manufacturers tend to overcomplicate the interface by trying to show "everything" or do the opposite and hide everything in a list of complex menus. The ASUS UEFI is very straight forward showing you the current state of your system while giving you appropriate menus to make adjustments. I will admit the menus can get excessively long and some settings are easy to miss as a result.
When it comes to overclocking I found the Formula to be very responsive to manual and automatic adjustments. Per the usual automatic overclocking is very voltage heavy and will default to 1.4v+ when overclocking with the BCLK aware voltage feature is enabled. Personally I find this to be a little excessive but, might be what is needed for whatever CPU sampling ASUS used to configure the optimized defaults.
It is difficult to go wrong with any ASUS ROG motherboard as they always feature better components, better performance potentials and ease of use. The Maximus X Formula is a full featured motherboard with onboard Wi-Fi, Tasteful RGB LEDs a watercooled VRM and options to really turn the screws with the help of LN2, if you are into that sort of thing.


text: Last summer, venue operator AEG Live put into place a policy barring musicians from playing their O2 Arena in London unless they also commit to playing AEG’s Staples Center in Los Angeles. The move was a direct response to its competitor, Azoff-MSG Entertainment, not booking acts at New York’s Madison Square Garden if they played the Staples Center instead of The Forum. On Wednesday, heavy metal singer Ozzy Osbourne pushed back against AEG’s so-called “Staples Center Commitment” by filing an antitrust lawsuit against the company in California federal court, according to The Hollywood Reporter.

Nothing fancy but a simple macro to log variables.
No format specifiers like "%s %d" and so on.
Use cout to dump the log messages. Later on this should support logging to syslog if required.
Easy to enable and disable with #if 0 and #if 1 declarations.
I did a couple of searches but then most of the implementations were heavy to use and I just wanted a macro that I could enable and disable before compilations.
The following is the simplest I could think of and come up with.
