    CHINA DECLARA LA GUERRA AL CRISTIANISMO, lo que incluye a los testigos cristianos de Jehova.
    El partido comunista esta llevando a cabo una campaña nacional contra las iglesias que dicen ser cristianas. Exigen que todos los devotos juren lealtad al partido comunista. Muchos de sus lideres han sido encarcelados. se han derribado unas 2000 cruces y han demolido algunas iglesias.
    China se une a Rusia al enfrentarse a la cristiandad en algunas de sus variantes. Ambas naciones han tomado acción contra Babilonia la Grande y de paso contra los testigos de Jehova.

    admin got a reaction from Jack Ryan in Warren Buffett’s 7 best pieces of investing advice   
    When Warren Buffett offers investing advice, everyone listens. The world’s greatest investor has never been shy about the strategies that have helped him amass a $72 billion net worth and grow his company, Berkshire Hathaway, into a juggernaut valued at over $212 billion. 
    But one thing he doesn’t do is encourage the average individual investor to try to mimic his success. The best advice he can give those investors, Buffett has said, is to do exactly the opposite. We’ve parsed through some of Buffett’s more popular insights on investing to come up with a few that apply to the average worker looking simply to invest for long-term, steady growth.
    1. The worst investment you can make over time: cash. 
    We always keep enough cash around so I feel very comfortable and don't worry about sleeping at night. But it's not because I like cash as an investment. Cash is a bad investment over time. But you always want to have enough so that nobody else can determine your future essentially. 
    2. Invest in a broad-based index fund that tracks the S&P 500. 
    If you are a professional and have confidence, then I would advocate lots of concentration. For everyone else, if it’s not your game, participate in total diversification. The economy will do fine over time. Make sure you don’t buy at the wrong price or the wrong time. That’s what most people should do, buy a cheap index fund, and slowly dollar cost average into it. If you try to be just a little bit smart, spending an hour a week investing, you’re liable to be really dumb.
    Recommended reading: “Common Sense on Mutual Funds: New Imperatives for the Intelligent Investor” by Vanguard founder Jack Bogle. Any investor in funds should read [Bogle’s books]. They have all you need to know.
    3. Invest in yourself. 
    “The best investment you can make is in your own abilities. Anything you can do to develop your own abilities or business is likely to be more productive.” 
    4. If you’re determined to pick stocks, don’t buy into a business you don’t understand. 
    [Individual investors] ought to think about what he or she understands. Let's just say they were going to put their whole family's net worth in a single business. Would that be a business they would consider? Or would they say, "Gee, I don't know enough about that business to go into it?" If so, they should go on to something else.... There are all kinds of businesses that [longtime partner and vice chairman of Berkshire Hathaway Charlie Munger] and I don't understand, but that doesn't cause us to stay up at night. It just means we go on to the next one, and that's what the individual investor should do.
    5. Focus on the competition as well. 
    [Buying stock in a company is] buying a piece of a business. If they were going to buy into a local service station or convenience store, what would they think about? They would think about the competition, the competitive position both of the industry and the specific location, the person they have running it and all that. 
    6. Invest for the long haul. 
    “If you aren’t willing to own a stock for 10 years, don’t even think about owning it for ten minutes”
    7. The hardest part about investing: trusting yourself. 
    You need to divorce your mind from the crowd. The herd mentality causes all these IQ's to become paralyzed. I don't think investors are now acting more intelligently, despite the intelligence. Smart doesn't always equal rational. To be a successful investor you must divorce yourself from the fears and greed of the people around you, although it is almost impossible.

    I apologize. It was not meant as an insult or name calling. It was a quote from scripture that the other member would understand. It will not happen again.

    @77benjamins Please refrain from further violations (calling others "Satan") - Please see the site guidelines page for further information.
    It is ok to disagree with someone without being disagreeable. (Or resorting to "name calling")
    Thank you

    admin reacted to Ann O'Maly in Gaia clocks speedy cosmic expansion   
    Artwork: Gaia is making the definitive map of our Milky Way Galaxy
    Europe’s Gaia space telescope has been used to clock the expansion rate of the Universe and - once again - it has produced some head-scratching.
    The reason? The speed is faster than what one would expect from measurements of the cosmos shortly after the Big Bang.
    Some other telescopes have found this same problem, too.
    But Gaia’s contribution is particularly significant because the precision of its observations is unprecedented.
    “It certainly ups the ante,” says Adam Riess from the Space Telescope Science Institute (STScI) and the Johns Hopkins University, both in Baltimore, Maryland, US.
    The inability to lock down a value for the expansion rate has far-reaching consequences - not least in how we gauge the cosmic timescale.
    If the Gaia speedometer is correct, it would mean having to reduce the estimated 13.88-billion-year age of the Universe by perhaps a few hundred million years.

    admin got a reaction from Anna in Synthetic blood trial coming in 2017   
    Now a group of scientists in the UK have claimed to have discovered the right way to manufacture synthetic blood and have even succeeded in doing so. The National Health Services of UK has announced its decision to start experimenting on synthetic blood in 2017 on a group pf 20 people. The blood substitutes are not meant to replace blood, the scientists said. Instead, synthetic blood is only meant to carry out the functions of actual blood wherever it fails. As such, synthetic blood transports oxygen.

    admin got a reaction from Alexa in Service Animals   
    Service Animals and the Washington Law Against Discrimination.pdf
    Service_Animals and the ADA -- Q and A.pd.pdf
    In summary:  Service animals are allowed, not pets. There are certain questions we can ask to determine if they are a service animal.

    Page 3 of first attachment addresses these questions: “a business can ask if the animal is a pet. If the animal is a pet, the business can exclude the animal. If the handler answers that the animal is a service animal, the business can proceed to a second question…”(more on page 3).


     
    Per the first attachment:

    “RCW 49.60.215 prohibits discrimination in a place of public accommodation due to the “use of a trained dog guide or service animal by a disabled person.” WAC 162-26-130 requires “fair service in a place of public accommodation regardless of the use of a trained dog guide or service animal by a disabled person as well as because of the disability itself.” (Internal quotations omitted.)

    Service animals must be allowed into all areas of a place of public accommodation where the general public is allowed – this includes dining and eating areas, restrooms, and areas where food is sold. A place of public accommodation cannot request that the service animal be removed unless it creates a risk of harm. This risk must be actual, and cannot be speculative or based on a fear of dogs. In addition, if an animal exhibits disruptive, poor or unsanitary behavior, it would not be considered a trained service animal, and can be removed.”
