The
foreign exchange (currency or forex or FX) market exists wherever one
currency is traded for another. It is by far the largest market in the
world, in terms of cash value traded, and includes trading between
large banks, central banks, currency speculators, multinational
corporations, governments, and other financial markets and
institutions. Retail traders (small speculators) are a small part of
this market. They may only participate indirectly through brokers or
banks and may be targets of forex scams.
Market size and liquidity
The foreign exchange market is unique because of:
its trading volume,
the extreme liquidity of the market,
the large number of, and variety of, traders in the market,
its geographical dispersion,
its long trading hours - 24 hours a day (except on weekends).
the variety of factors that affect exchange rates,
Average daily international foreign exchange trading
volume was $1.9 trillion in April 2004 according to the BIS study
Triennial Central Bank Survey 2004
$600 billion spot
$1,300 billion in derivatives, ie
$200 billion in outright forwards
$1,000 billion in forex swaps
$100 billion in FX options.

Anyone who owns or is
thinking about
creating a website
would be crazy
to ignore this.
I am happy to
say that
making money with
your site, no matter
the
topic, has
become easier than
it's ever been
before - and it's
100%
legitimate.
From AdWords to AdSense
Google.com earns
most of its revenue by
allowing other
website owners to
advertise on their
search result pages.
All this is managed
through a program
they call AdWords.
Now you can earn a
share of the revenue
that Google earns
from AdWords by
placing these same
text ads on your
site. In other
words, you're
helping Google
advertise and they
pay you a percentage
of what they earn.
This program is called AdSense.
Every
website owner should
be involved in this.
It's just too good
of an opportunity to
pass up. Even if
your site is just
for information
purposes, you can
still participate
and make decent
money with AdSense
-- or at least
enough to fund your
website.
So if you are one of
those people that
don't like the idea
of paying for a
site, this is an
excellent way to
earn your money back
and then some.
Even if you earned
as little as $10 in
a month, it would
more than likely
cover some or all of
the costs for your
web site. Perhaps you are
simply looking for
ways to add
additional revenue
to your website,
then it's perfect
for that situation
too.
This program is
getting so popular,
people are creating
websites just to
display the ads and
profit from Google's
AdSense alone.
I don't usually like
to use the term
"easy money" because
there really is no
such thing. You
still have to create
your own website and
learn how to bring
in traffic in order
to make good money
with this program.
I
certainly don't want to make
it sound like you
get something for
doing absolutely
nothing.
There's no such
thing.
However, I've got to
say that AdSense is
probably the closest
you'll ever come to fast
money on the
Internet --
especially if you
already have a
website that gets a
good amount of
traffic.
What's even
better...the program
is completely free.
You can also use it
on multiple websites
and there is no
limit to the amount
you can earn.

Food /Recipes
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil, for frying, plus more to drizzle
3 tablespoons butter
2 cups all-purpose flour
2 to 3 pounds beef chuck shoulder roast, cut into 2-inch pieces
(this cut is also called chuck shoulder pot roast and chuck roast
boneless)
Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 bottle good quality dry red wine (recommended: Burgundy)
8 fresh thyme sprigs
6 garlic cloves, smashed
1 orange, zest removed in 3 (1-inch) strips
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
2 bay leaves
2 1/2 cups beef stock
9 small new potatoes, scrubbed clean and cut in 1/2
1/2 pound carrots, peeled and sliced
2 cups frozen pearl onions, a large handful
1 pound white mushrooms, cut in 1/2
1/2 pound garden peas frozen or fresh
Fresh flat-leaf parsley, chopped, for garnish
Horseradish Sour Cream, recipe follows, for garnish
Toasted Peasant Bread, recipe follows, for serving
Preheat a large heavy-bottomed saucepan or Dutch oven over medium-high heat with the oil and butter.
While the pan is heating, arrange the flour on a large dish. Season
the cubed beef with some salt and freshly ground black pepper and then
toss in the flour to coat. Shake off the excess flour and add the beef
chunks in a single layer to the hot pan, being careful not to over
crowd the pan, you might have to work in batches. Thoroughly brown all
of the cubes on all sides. Once all the meat has been browned remove it
to a plate and reserve.
Add the wine to the pan and bring up to a simmer while you
scrape the bottom of the pan with a wooden spoon being sure to loosen
up all those tasty bits. Once the wine has gotten hot add the browned
meat, thyme, smashed garlic, orange zest strip, ground cloves, freshly
ground black pepper and salt, to taste, bay leaves and beef stock.
Bring the mixture up to a boil and then reduce the heat to a simmer and
cook uncovered until the liquids start to thicken, about 15 to 20
minutes. Cover and cook on low heat for 2 1/2 hours.
After 2 hours add halved potatoes, sliced carrots, pearl
onions and mushrooms, along with a pinch of sugar to balance out the
acid from the red wine. Turn the heat up slightly and simmer,
uncovered, for 30 minutes more, until the vegetables and meat are
tender. Add the frozen peas during the last minute of cooking. Season
with salt and pepper and remove the thyme sprigs.
To serve, place the stew in a soup bowl, garnish with parsley,
drizzle with olive oil and add a dollop of Horseradish Sour Cream.
Right before serving add a slice of Toasted Peasant Bread, half way
submerged in the stew.
Horseradish Sour Cream:
1 cup sour cream
1 tablespoon prepared horseradish
Olive oil
Salt and pepper
Chives, finely chopped, as garnish
Combine sour cream, prepared horseradish and a drizzle of olive oil
in a small bowl and mix until thoroughly combined. Season with salt and
pepper. Add a dollop of the mixture on top of the stew and garnish with
chopped chives.
Toasted Peasant Bread:
1 loaf peasant bread, sliced into 1/2-inch pieces
Extra-virgin olive oil
4 garlic cloves, halved
Chopped parsley leaves
Preheat the oven to 500 degrees F.
Put a sheet pan in the oven so that it gets good and hot.
Place the bread slices on the hot sheet pan. Drizzle the bread
with the extra-virgin olive oil bake for 5 minutes, until the bread is
nicely toasted. Rub the bread slices with the garlic cloves, and
discard garlic. Sprinkle with parsley and serve.
Yield: 4 to 6 servings

Wow...earn actual college credit for taking a class that explains how YouTube works. Can someone please take the time to explain the need for something like this? To think that you can earn credit towards a degree by taking a class like this is absolutely ridiculous. Does anyone think otherwise? I quoted the article:
(AP) Here's a dream-come-true for Web addicts: college credit for watching YouTube.
Pitzer College this fall began offering what may be the first course about the video-sharing site. About 35 students meet in a classroom but work mostly online, where they view YouTube content and post their comments.
Class lessons also are posted and students are encouraged to post videos. One class member, for instance, posted a 1:36-minute video of himself juggling.
Alexandra Juhasz, a media studies professor at the liberal arts college, said she was "underwhelmed" by the content on YouTube but set up the course, "Learning from YouTube," to explore the role of the popular site.
Class members control most of the class content and YouTube watchers from around the world are encouraged to comment, Juhasz said.
She hopes the course will raise serious issues about YouTube, such as the role of "corporate-sponsored democratic media expression."
YouTube is "a phenomenon that should be studied," student Darren Grose said. "You can learn a lot about American culture and just Internet culture in general."
The actual article can be found here: http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2007/09/14/ap/strange/main3260845.shtml

While watching television, I noticed a commercial for Vonage. When the commercial was about to end, and it flashed its usual fine print material, I noticed a line that stated "Vonage 911 Dialing service operates differently than traditional 911". Being the curious one, I typed in Vonage 911 in Google and clicked the first result which led me to: http://www.vonage.com/features.php?feature=911
After reading the article, it definitely put me off of ever signing up for Vonage (not that I had intended to in the first place, lol). It seems like a hassle to connect to the emergency service in the beginning. You are required to fill out an address form where your Vonage setup is located (this is understandable) in order for their 911 to know where you are in case of the emergency. This in itself can take several hours after submitting the form (even if it is a one time thing, what if you need 911 during the form submission wait?) If you decide to switch locations, you have to fill out another form with a new address, etc. etc. etc.
The most horrific of course, is that in the event of a power outage, or say ISP malfunctioning, etc. your 911 service (besides your regular service) is not reachable at all. Using a landline phone (or cell phone, if you can reach a signal) still gives you the option to dial out in power outages.
Even if it may sound silly not to go with Vonage over one little thing such as 911, I find this a highly important factor and definitely don't recommend it.

McDonald's finally discontinued their "limited time" offer of the $0.69 extra large drink here in Southern California. I can't speak for the rest of the country, as I've read that it's actually a permanent thing in some states. I miss that drink, it was the perfect size and of course, the perfect price! Did anyone else catch this offer?

The popular Web site is poised
to challenge the major
networks with live channels, reports the Guardian:
"The plans would enable YouTube's millions of users
to chat from
their bedrooms, perform music or report
on a breaking news story to a
worldwide audience in
real time. A birthday party or wedding could be
broadcast live to family and friends who are unable to
attend. The truly
committed could start a 24-hour
'lifecast' of their daily activities reminiscent
of
television's Big Brother."

LOS ANGELES --
Los Angeles shoppers soon won't hear the question, "Paper or plastic?" at the checkout line.
The City Council voted Tuesday to ban plastic shopping bags from
stores, beginning July 1, 2010. Shoppers can either bring their own
bags or pay 25 cents for a paper bag.
The City Council voted Tuesday to ban plastic shopping bags from
stores, beginning July 1, 2010. Shoppers can either bring their own
bags or pay 25 cents for a paper or biodegradable bag.
The
council's unanimous vote also puts pressure on the state, which is
considering an Assembly bill that would impose bag recycling
requirements on stores. City officials said their ban would not be
implemented if the state passes the bill and requires at least a
25-cent charge per bag.
"We've gotten to a point where we need to act as a city, where we can
have real results," said Councilman Ed Reyes, who proposed the bag ban.
"We're trying to do it in a way where we can educate and inform the
public of what we're doing."
Reyes said the ban will minimize
cleanup costs for the city and reduce trash that collects in storm
drains and the Los Angeles River. The city estimates more than 2
billion plastic bags are used each year in Los Angeles. About 5 percent
of plastic bags and 21 percent of paper bags are recycled in
California.
Three percent of the bag fee will be returned to
the retailer, 3 percent will go to the state, and the rest will go back
to the city to fund an education campaign.
Last year, San Francisco passed the nation's first bag ban, which took effect in November.
This is absurd and ridiculous when you think about the need for plastic bags for families that have large households. Money is hard to come by as it is, and to impose more charges just makes it worse for the lower class. By allowing people to bring their own bags inside stores, think of those who will make bags with secret compartments and shoplift, etc. which will then in turn make grocery prices even higher than what they already are. You know, that if they really wanted to, they could find an alternative to this.

Someone sent this to me in an e-mail and I just thought I'd share it with the world as I found it very interesting.
NAJEE
ALI: An open letter to Rev. Jesse Jackson, Sr.
*Rev Jackson, your
vulgar tirade caught on tape by Fox News where you said
you wanted to cut
Barack Obama's nuts off and accusing him of talking down
to Black folks by
giving moral lectures at churches is the last straw for me
and a growing
number of African Americans who are outraged at your comments.
There are
many Blacks across the nation, myself included, who are
appreciative for
the work and contributions you have made in your civil
rights career. But
at this point, you're hurting Black America and Obama.
In September 2007 it was clear that you were frustrated by Obama,
when
you stated in an interview in South Carolina that Obama needs to stop
acting
white, because you felt he was not engaged in the Jena 6 movement enough
to
your liking.
Rev Jackson your continued verbal
attacks on Obama are unwarranted it's
as if you're jealous that Obama has
eclipsed you and both your campaigns for
the Democratic nomination by
actually preparing to win it as the 2008
presumptive nominee.
For years you have been criticized as an ambulance chaser
and
opportunist. Many of Dr. King's insiders and aides say that King did
not
trust you. 40 years ago in Memphis as King lay dying from an
assassin's
bullet your first thought and action was to smear your shirt
with Dr. King's
blood.
You then proceeded to appear
in Chicago the
next day on several news
programs wearing the same shirt you deliberately
smeared with his blood as
if you were the heir of King's movement. Obama's
recent comments about Black
fathers not abandoning their children and
accepting moral responsibility in
our lives is a lesson you apparently
needed to learn when you were younger.
If you had, it may not have caused
you to cheat on your wife and father a
child out of wedlock with a former
staffer.
Maybe that's what really bothered you about
Obama's message to the
church that Black fathers should be responsible for
their children; you
certainly haven't been.
Living
in Los Angeles
I have watched your ten year old daughter Ashley
Laverne Jackson grow up.
Over the years I have had the pleasure to spend
several holidays with your
daughter including Christmas, her birthday
parties and other milestones in
her life. I will never turn my back on
Ashley her mom and their family.
It's about providing friendship, support
and love to them while you have
been missing in action.
Your daughter has never
traveled or taken a trip with you, you have an
annual birthday party in
Beverly Hills
every year where your entire family
is welcome but your youngest child has
only attended it once. She has had
very little contact with her siblings
and has never even met her big brother
Congressman Jesse Jackson Jr, who
apparently doesn't want anything to do
with her. And allegedly (I believe
it to be true ), he was the one to leak
the scandal to the media concerning
your affair. Now don't get me wrong,
Obama is not above reproach. He is a
politician and is fair game to be
fairly criticized by you or anyone else.
But to personally attack Obama is
crossing the line. Obama is not talking
down to Black people; he wants you
and other dead beat dads to spend
time and care for your children properly.
The destruction of the Black
family and absentee fathers is a major problem
in our community.
It's a problem that King spoke out and fought against. 40 years
after
King's murder I can see why King didn't trust you. If you can't and
won't
sincerely help Obama in this historic run then at least stop
attacking him.
Listen to Obama's message of being a responsible father and
start taking
care of your daughter Ashley.

Strong quake shakes Southern California
By ROBERT JABLON – 26 minutes ago
LOS ANGELES (AP) — A strong earthquake shook Southern California on
Tuesday, causing buildings to sway and triggering some precautionary
evacuations. No immediate damage was reported.
The jolt was felt from Los Angeles to San Diego, and slightly in Las Vegas.
Preliminary
information from the U.S. Geological Survey estimated the quake at
magnitude 5.8, centered 29 miles east-southeast of downtown Los Angeles
near Chino Hills in San Bernardino County.
Los Angeles Fire
Department spokesman Brian Humphrey said there were no immediate
reports of damage or injury in Los Angeles. San Bernardino County fire
dispatch also had no immediate reports of damage.
The quake struck at 11:42 a.m. PDT. Buildings swayed in downtown Los Angeles for several seconds.
Workers quickly evacuated some office buildings.
"It
was dramatic. The whole building moved and it lasted for a while," said
Los Angeles County sheriff's spokesman Steve Whitmore, who was in the
sheriff's suburban Monterey Park headquarters east of Los Angeles.
I felt the entire thing. It woke me up out of my sleep. Luckily there have been no reports of any damage or injuries. Very scary situation....

WINTER IS COMING! I love to prepare for the wintertime in terms of the holidays, the overall season
changing, and my birthday (it's on December 11th). Summer is just about over, although sometimes in
California, a term know as "Indian Summer" can occur. The weather keeps flucuating (one of the perks of
California weather) between hot and cold these days. Daylight Savings Time will keep in, which means it
will grow darker faster and the sun will rise earlier (oh joy). I just thought I'd share my personal rant
about wintertime with the world and see if anyone feels the same way I do, wheter it be about winter or
any other season. What is your favorite season and why?
