Today, October 11, 2019, marks three years since I published my first book, The Only Sales Guide You’ll Ever Need. My primary outcome when writing this book was to ensure that it would stand the test of time (which is why I don’t follow fads like social selling and look instead for trend-lines that provide a sense of direction and suggest an evolutionary change).I had been writing this blog for five years when a publisher asked me for a book. At the time, I didn’t feel I needed to write a book. I was writing a post every day, and at five hundred words a day, I was already writing the equivalent of three books a year, a book being roughly sixty-thousand words. Because readers kept sending me notes asking me to write a book, I drafted a book with the working title 21 Elements: The Periodic Table of Sales Success. I hired an editor to help me with development and ended up with only seventeen of my original twenty-one elements.The publisher read the book and hated it. He asked me why I would make the first chapter Self-Discipline, in his words, “when everyone hates self-discipline.” He continued sharing his thoughts, aiming for the third chapter, titled: Caring. Has said, “What does caring have to do with selling?” At this point, I realized the call wasn’t going as well as I hoped it would.Rather than try to argue about each chapter, I asked him a question, even though I knew the answer. I asked, “Have you ever sold or led a sales force?” He confessed he had not. I followed up by telling him, “I have never published a book, so I will count on you to have a deep understanding of that, and you’ll have to trust that I understand my subject.” He countered by asking me if he could compile several blog posts into a book, and idea that had no interest to me whatsoever.Going It AloneAt that moment, I decided to publish the book myself. I hired an editor and spent the next six months writing and editing the text. My editor helped me clean up the book, polishing sentences and paragraphs. At one point, he told me to delete chapter seventeen, which he said added nothing. I rewrote it from scratch.Six weeks from the publication date, I received a direct message on Twitter from an acquisition editor from my publisher asking me why I hadn’t written a book. I DM’d back that I had, and he suggested he couldn’t find it. I told him I was six weeks away from publication. We had a phone call, and he shared with me that he hated my title, and we agreed I would send him the book. A few days later, I signed with my publisher, who immediately recognized the book as a competency model. We published the book, and it became an Amazon.com and the USA Today national bestseller.Why I Love This BookI get notes and emails from people who read my books and this blog. The notes about my second book, The Lost Art of Closing, always include something about how much more money the person is making because they learned to control the process and trade value. The emails about book three, Eat Their Lunch, always suggest that the writer is booking more meetings and winning more and bigger deals. But TOSG brings different feedback.Most of the notes about this book say that not only did it improve their sales, but it also made them a better parent, spouse, and person. The first half of the book is designed to do just that; improve your intangibles, like Self-Discipline, Optimism, Caring, Competitiveness, Resourcefulness, Persistence, Initiative, Communication, and Accountability.Who you are matters much more than what you do or what you sell. Success in sales is individual, not situational.There is not a single novel idea in The Was Only Sales Guide. The only novelty in the book is the competency model that I constructed out of character traits and skills that are all well-recognized and documented. Because the ideas are so well documented, I included a reading list at the end of every chapter for people who need to go deeper in any area.Learn Anthony’s core strategies & tactics for sales success at any level with The Only Sales Guide You’ll Ever NeedTOSG is a sales book. So all the Mindset chapters in the first half of the book are all written for a salesperson. The second half of the book is made up of the skills necessary to succeed in sales, and I added a few that have merged as being critical to success, even though they are not widely taught or trained. In that half, you find Closing, Prospecting, Storytelling, Diagnosing, Negotiating, Business Acumen, Change Management, and Leadership. The last three of these skills are differentiators for a salesperson—especially when coupled with the Mindset chapters.On my first book’s third birthday, I can’t imagine writing about anything else. When you pick it up, email me at Anthony iannarino.com so that I can send you the workbook. Essential Reading! Get my 2nd book: The Lost Art of Closing “In The Lost Art of Closing, Anthony proves that the final commitment can actually be one of the easiest parts of the sales process—if you’ve set it up properly with other commitments that have to happen long before the close. The key is to lead customers through a series of necessary steps designed to prevent a purchase stall.” Buy Now

Researchers have taken several steps toward using stem cells to treat a rare genetic disease that leaves people with skin so fragile it blisters at the slightest touch. A trio of lab and animal studies reported today could help pave the way for a clinical trial for the disorder, called epidermolysis bullosa (EB).Although EB is quite rare, occurring in one in 20,000 births, about 500,000 people around the world suffer from some form of the disease. It is caused by defects in any of several genes that code for proteins, such as collagen, that link the top and bottom layers of skin. The gene defect creates fragile skin that easily tears, resulting in painful blisters and sores. There is no cure; physicians usually treat symptoms only by dressing wounds and treating infections. Those with severe forms of EB who survive childhood are also prone to skin cancer and often die from that by their mid-40s.A few years ago, researchers tried gene therapy in a single EB patient, using a virus to add a corrective gene to skin cells cultured from that person and then grafting sheets of them onto his legs. Although the repaired cells took hold, the risks of the virus used in the trial and challenges of growing enough cells to cover a large surface area led researchers to look for other options.Sign up for our daily newsletterGet more great content like this delivered right to you!Country *AfghanistanAland IslandsAlbaniaAlgeriaAndorraAngolaAnguillaAntarcticaAntigua and BarbudaArgentinaArmeniaArubaAustraliaAustriaAzerbaijanBahamasBahrainBangladeshBarbadosBelarusBelgiumBelizeBeninBermudaBhutanBolivia, Plurinational State ofBonaire, Sint Eustatius and SabaBosnia and HerzegovinaBotswanaBouvet IslandBrazilBritish Indian Ocean TerritoryBrunei DarussalamBulgariaBurkina FasoBurundiCambodiaCameroonCanadaCape VerdeCayman IslandsCentral African RepublicChadChileChinaChristmas IslandCocos (Keeling) IslandsColombiaComorosCongoCongo, The Democratic Republic of theCook IslandsCosta RicaCote D’IvoireCroatiaCubaCuraçaoCyprusCzech RepublicDenmarkDjiboutiDominicaDominican RepublicEcuadorEgyptEl SalvadorEquatorial GuineaEritreaEstoniaEthiopiaFalkland Islands (Malvinas)Faroe IslandsFijiFinlandFranceFrench GuianaFrench PolynesiaFrench Southern TerritoriesGabonGambiaGeorgiaGermanyGhanaGibraltarGreeceGreenlandGrenadaGuadeloupeGuatemalaGuernseyGuineaGuinea-BissauGuyanaHaitiHeard Island and Mcdonald IslandsHoly See (Vatican City State)HondurasHong KongHungaryIcelandIndiaIndonesiaIran, Islamic Republic ofIraqIrelandIsle of ManIsraelItalyJamaicaJapanJerseyJordanKazakhstanKenyaKiribatiKorea, Democratic People’s Republic ofKorea, Republic ofKuwaitKyrgyzstanLao People’s Democratic RepublicLatviaLebanonLesothoLiberiaLibyan Arab JamahiriyaLiechtensteinLithuaniaLuxembourgMacaoMacedonia, The Former Yugoslav Republic ofMadagascarMalawiMalaysiaMaldivesMaliMaltaMartiniqueMauritaniaMauritiusMayotteMexicoMoldova, Republic ofMonacoMongoliaMontenegroMontserratMoroccoMozambiqueMyanmarNamibiaNauruNepalNetherlandsNew CaledoniaNew ZealandNicaraguaNigerNigeriaNiueNorfolk IslandNorwayOmanPakistanPalestinianPanamaPapua New GuineaParaguayPeruPhilippinesPitcairnPolandPortugalQatarReunionRomaniaRussian FederationRWANDASaint Barthélemy Saint Helena, Ascension and Tristan da CunhaSaint Kitts and NevisSaint LuciaSaint Martin (French part)Saint Pierre and MiquelonSaint Vincent and the GrenadinesSamoaSan MarinoSao Tome and PrincipeSaudi ArabiaSenegalSerbiaSeychellesSierra LeoneSingaporeSint Maarten (Dutch part)SlovakiaSloveniaSolomon IslandsSomaliaSouth AfricaSouth Georgia and the South Sandwich IslandsSouth SudanSpainSri LankaSudanSurinameSvalbard and Jan MayenSwazilandSwedenSwitzerlandSyrian Arab RepublicTaiwanTajikistanTanzania, United Republic ofThailandTimor-LesteTogoTokelauTongaTrinidad and TobagoTunisiaTurkeyTurkmenistanTurks and Caicos IslandsTuvaluUgandaUkraineUnited Arab EmiratesUnited KingdomUnited StatesUruguayUzbekistanVanuatuVenezuela, Bolivarian Republic ofVietnamVirgin Islands, BritishWallis and FutunaWestern SaharaYemenZambiaZimbabweI also wish to receive emails from AAAS/Science and Science advertisers, including information on products, services and special offers which may include but are not limited to news, careers information & upcoming events.Required fields are included by an asterisk(*)Several groups have now turned to induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells, a type of cell created by reprogramming adult cells back into an embryonic state. These iPS cells can be coaxed to grow into large quantities of various adult tissues that are genetically matched to a person and therefore less likely to be rejected by the immune system than cells from a donor.A Columbia University team pursuing the iPS cell approach recently took advantage of the fact that some EB patients have skin cells that somehow lose the disease-causing mutations and turn back into healthy cells. The scientists transformed some of these “revertant” cells into iPS cells, then from them grew skin cells called keratinocytes that expressed the type of collagen missing in the patients. When grafted onto the back of a strain of mice with a weak immune system that would not reject the cells from a different species, the keratinocytes grew into human skin and produced the correct form of collagen. Using revertant cells in this manner for EB could avoid the risks of gene therapy and “be a little more straightforward,” says study leader Angela Christiano.But only about 20% to 30% of people with EB have revertant skin cells, so other groups have taken a more traditional approach. In a second study, researchers at Stanford University in Palo Alto, California, created iPS cells from skin cells taken from three EB patients lacking a collagen different from the type studied by the Columbia team. They then fixed the genetic defect in the stem cells before turning them back into keratinocytes. These steps can potentially introduce harmful mutations, and the original cells from EB patients can also carry cancer-causing mutations. But the team reduced this risk by genetically screening and banking only iPS cells free of harmful mutations. The cells grew as skin grafts on mice for up to a month before the cells died.Neither of these studies showed that cells could help treat the disease in an animal with EB. But in the third study, researchers in Josef Penninger’s lab at the Institute of Molecular Biotechnology of the Austrian Academy of Sciences in Vienna did just that by deriving iPS cells from the skin cells of mice with the same defect as the EB patients studied by the Stanford group. They then repaired the collagen gene; turned the cells into fibroblasts, another type of skin cell; and injected them under the sick mice’s skin. These cells formed skin layers that expressed the correct form of collagen for 18 weeks.Together, the three papers, published today in Science Translational Medicine, “should provide a lot of optimism that this approach has a lot of legs,” says Anthony Oro, who co-led the Stanford study with Marius Wernig. Both his group and the Columbia team have applied for funding to launch trials of the iPS cell treatment in EB patients.Although the reports are promising, they also show the challenges of using such cells for the skin disorder, says stem cell scientist Lorenz Studer of Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center in New York City. He points out that the researchers haven’t yet found the right recipe for producing human skin cells that live longer than a few weeks. “This therapy is still kind of on hold until the field can achieve long-term engraftment,” Studer says.Jakub Tolar of the University of Minnesota, Twin Cities, who also studies iPS and gene therapy for EB, highlights another issue. The skin graft approach won’t treat internal problems that many EB patients suffer from due to the disease’s effects on the lining of the gut and esophagus. Tolar is working on a riskier, but more comprehensive solution: giving EB patients bone marrow transplants of gene-corrected cells made using iPS cells. Still, he’s impressed by the current trio of papers. “It’s gratifying to see they have taken it this far,” Tolar says.

NICOSIA (AP) — Cyprus league titleholder APOEL parted with coach Yiorgos Donis and his staff on Thursday.He was immediately replaced by Bruno Miguel Nunes Baltazar with seven games left. The 40-year-old Portuguese coached AEL Limassol until this month.Baltazar was chosen because of his local knowledge and familiarity with APOEL’s players and opponents, club chairman Prodromos Petrides said on the team website.APOEL said it mutually agreed with Donis on his departure. The Greek had been in charge for eight months. He also coached APOEL from 2013-15, leading the team into the Champions League.Petrides said the board of directors decided a coaching change would be helpful in “fulfilling the team’s championship goals.”FILE – In this Tuesday, Sept. 26, 2017 file photo, APOEL Nicosia coach Giorgos Donis reacts during the Champions League Group H soccer match between APOEL Nicosia and Tottenham Hotspur at GSP stadium, in Nicosia, Cyprus. (AP Photo/Petros Karadjias, File)Baltazar is APOEL’s seventh coach in three years, and Petrides said the changes have all been made for the good of the team.There was much speculation about Donis’ future after APOEL lost to Apollonas Limassol 4-2 last weekend.APOEL dropped to second place in the standings behind Apollonas, casting doubt on APOEL’s chance of winning the league for a record sixth straight year.TweetPinShare0 Shares

Kim Reynolds is the fifth governor in the country to “opt in” so Iowa agencies may buy A-T-and-T contracts for high-speed cellular service that provides “first responders” with priority access during times of crisis. Reynolds says A-T-and-T’s “FirstNet” service also will help agencies communicate across state lines.Audio Playerhttp://kscj.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/07/firstnet1.mp300:0000:0000:00Use Up/Down Arrow keys to increase or decrease volume.About five years ago, federal officials awarded A-T-and-T nine BILLION dollars to start creating a NATIONAL network that would divert private traffic from mobile networks and give public safety agencies like police and fire departments nearly all the bandwidth in a critical emergency. Governors have until the end of the year to start creating that kind of emergency network on their own — or do as Reynolds has and opt for the one A-T-and-T is developing.David Ness, a captain in the Des Moines Police Department, says the 9-11 Commission called for first responders to get “first access” to cellular towers and data networks in times of crisis.Audio Playerhttp://kscj.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/07/firstnet2.mp300:0000:0000:00Use Up/Down Arrow keys to increase or decrease volume.The governor’s “opt in” agreement, however, does NOT require ANY Iowa agency to break current contracts and sign up for A-T-and-T cellular and data service. Signing up for A-T-and-T’s “FirstNet” service is voluntary. A-T-and-T officials say their company has spent nearly 150-million dollars over the past three years to increase the speed of its network in Iowa and more money will be invested here in the future. According to the state government’s “Connect Iowa” program, only a third of the territory in Iowa has access to advanced, high-speed broadband.

The win also saw Lazio move level with the champions on 19 points, five shy of early pacesetters Napoli.And former Italy forward Inzaghi, who guided the Biancocelesti to fifth last term, says his side deserve the respect of Serie A’s title contenders.”It is only right that people talk about Lazio as we achieved something remarkable this evening,” Inzaghi told Mediaset Premium.”The lads deserve credit for a result that will go down in the history of the club.
“I did get the feeling we could hurt Juve if we just hung in there. Some people said we would be in ninth or 10th place this season, which is unfair, so now it is only right that people talk about us.”Lazio’s two goals each arrived within 10 minutes of the restart as Immobile came back to haunt his former club with a match-turning brace.Inzaghi insists he was always confident in the team’s ability to respond to Douglas Costa’s opener.”I said to the lads at half-time that we could have done better in the final third and just had to work on that final ball,” he said.”We were doing okay, but to win we needed to give something more, have clear heads and play without pressure.”In the second half we felt freer, we were doing the moves that we had worked on in training.”It is never easy with the fans and atmosphere in Turin, as there is a reason they have not lost here in almost three years.”

NEW DELHI: Capping a landslide election victory, Prime Minister Narendra Modi will take oath along with a new council of ministers on Thursday for a second term, as suspense mounted on who will get the Big Four berths-Home, Finance, Defence and External Affairs.Top opposition leaders, corporate top honchos, film stars, chief ministers and a galaxy of leaders from BIMSTEC countries will be on hand to watch President Ram Nath Kovind administer the oath of office and secrecy to 68-year-old Modi and his ministerial colleagues at the forecourt of majestic Rashtrapati Bhavan. Also Read – Dussehra with a ‘green’ twistModi and BJP president Amit Shah held a marathon meeting for the second consecutive day on Wednesday during which they are learnt to have finalised the broad contours of the new ministry that is expected to have some new faces besides retaining most of the senior ministers. Many BJP leaders are of the view that most key members of the previous Cabinet could be retained. Some changes, though, are likely to be made to accommodate allies like Nitish Kumar’s Janata Dal United and the Akali Dal and also to ensure representation of Bengal, Odisha and the northeast – new zones that have embraced the party. Also Read – India receives its first Rafale fighter jet from FranceNearly 8,000 guests will attend the swearing-in of Prime Minister Narendra Modi at the Rashtrapati Bhavan on Thursday, making it the biggest-ever event held in the historic premises. While the guests attending the event will be treated to high tea, President Ram Nath Kovind will host a private dinner for the leaders from Bay of Bengal Initiative for Multi-Sectoral Technical and Economic Cooperation (Bimstec) countries as well as Kyrgyz President Sooronbay Jeenbekov and Mauritian Prime Minister Pravind Kumar Jugnauth – who have all confirmed their presence. The visiting foreign dignitaries will be treated to the choicest vegetarian and non-vegetarian dishes that include soup, fish, chicken, vegetables and “Dal Raisina” – a special delicacy of the Rashtrapati Bhavan that takes 48 hours to cook – among other delicacies. The swearing-in will be held in the forecourt of Rashtrapati Bhavan, the same venue as in 2014. The Bimstec leaders attending the event include Bangladeshi President Abdul Hamid, Sri Lankan President Maithripala Sirisena, Myanmarese President U Win Myint, Nepali Prime Minister K.P. Sharma Oli and Bhutanese Prime Minister Lotay Tshering. Thailand will be represented by its Special Envoy Grisada Boonrach. The chief ministers of Congress-ruled states, the chief ministers of Odisha, Kerala and Bengal will skip the ceremony. Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal, Telangana CM, YSRCP president Jagan Mohan Reddy are also expected to show up at the grand event. The invitation to opposition leaders is seen as Modi’s move to reach out to them following the fiercely fought election in which the BJP registered a massive victory.
Indore: Electoral bonds worth Rs 5,851.41 crore were bought by donors to fund political parties between March 2018 and May 2019, of which 80.6 per cent were redeemed in New Delhi, where the headquarters of major parties are located, reply to an RTI query has revealed. Chandrashekhar Goud, an RTI activist based in Madhya Pradesh’s Neemuch, Sunday shared the information furnished by the State Bank of India (SBI) in response to his two queries.

VANCOUVER, B.C. — Kim and Susan Gamble from Dawson Creek have been announced as the winners of the Lotto 6/49 Guaranteed Prize from the draw on April 28th.Kim and Susan purchased the winning ticket at the 7-Eleven in Dawson Creek. sometime between Thursday and Saturday evening. The couple says that the reality of their win is sinking in as they share the news with more of their friends and family. They said that their winnings will go towards new home renovations and a trip to Hawaii.“We heard there was a winning ticket sold in Dawson Creek so I decided to check my ticket on the Lotto App,” said Kim. “As soon as I scanned it, I instantly froze up and was speechless.” “I didn’t know what Kim was looking at so I popped my head over to see the app and instantly froze up too,” said Susan. “It was a speechless moment frozen in time. It’s hard to explain the shock but we just couldn’t believe our eyes.”In addition to the $1 million prize, the April 28th draw featured 50 additional guaranteed prizes, seven of which were won in B.C.
Thalia Semplonius (right) is comparing well-being of older adults with that of Brock undergrads.Stress.Just hearing the word sends a jolt through us as we scramble to meet deadlines, pay the bills and face a host of other challenges. Many of us think we’ll be less stressed out in our golden years.But is that the case? Graduate student Thalia Semplonius is aiming to find out.Semplonius is seeking people 60 years and older to answer a range of questions that measure their sense of well-being.“We want to know how they’re dealing with stress, and how social activities might help them manage stress,” says Semplonius. “What’s making them stressed? What’s making them happy?”But there’s a twist to her research: Semplonius is using a similar questionnaire that a long-running Brock University study is using to examine stress levels and well-being in Brock undergraduate students.She plans to examine similarities and differences in the questionnaire results of the young and older adult groups.Comparing what promotes health and well-being in young and older adults gives us important clues about how we can develop well-being as we age, says Semplonius.One of these well-being factors is emotion regulation. This is where we manage our emotions in healthy ways so that we don’t act destructively or impulsively when under stress.“For example, emotion regulation is thought to improve with age, but few direct comparisons of emotion regulation have been made between these two age groups,” she explains. “This is important because aging often is seen as a time of decline, and this may not be true in some domains, especially for the young-old who are very active.”Another unique feature of the research is that Semplonius aims to make this a “longitudinal study,” meaning that the same people who answer the questionnaire now can do so next year and in subsequent years. Student participants in the Brock study, for instance, have been filling out the questionnaire for six years now.A longitudinal approach helps researchers see trends and changes over time, explains psychology professor Teena Willoughby, who is supervising Semplonius’ research.“The longitudinal nature of this study will be critical in increasing our understanding of how well-being, stress, and emotion regulation strategies change over time and across age, and will help identify key activities that might support positive adjustment,” says Willoughby.This approach can also help to shed light on the “chicken-or-the-egg” question: does well-being lead to better emotion regulation strategies over time? Or does the development of emotion regulation strategies lead to happiness and well-being over time?“I’m expecting that the older adults will show fairly positive emotion regulation strategies and well-being,” she says. “Young adults are still developing these emotion-regulatory skills whereas adults who are older may already have these skills in place.”Beyond the comparison aspect of the research, knowing more about what promotes wellbeing in older adults and how they handle stress can lead to better programing and better initiatives for Niagara’s older adults, which is particularly important as Niagara recently started its Age-Friendly Community Initiative,” says Semplonius.The well-being questionnaire can be completed either online or with a paper/pencil method. For those who complete the questionnaire on paper, the survey and consent forms simply can be mailed back with the provided stamped and addressed envelopes.People 60 years of age and older who wish to participate in the study can contact Thalia Semplonius at: ts11jy@brocku.ca
TORONTO — After enduring bidding wars and skyrocketing home prices, would-be homebuyers are facing a relatively new dilemma: jump in to take advantage of lower national average prices or tread cautiously to avoid making a costly mistake.While current conditions may be too hard to resist, prospective homeowners should be in no hurry to make the largest purchase of their lives if they’re nervous about a coming economic slowdown and eventual recession, says the author of a book forecasting a housing crash in Canada that takes a decidedly contrarian view to that of the real estate industry.“I would say wait,” says Hilliard MacBeth, portfolio manager at Richardson GMP in Edmonton and author of the recently updated “When the Bubble Bursts: Surviving the Canadian Real Estate Crash.”“When prices are flat or falling, renting is always financially more successful than buying.”The Canadian Real Estate Association’s most recent market forecast released in June projected the national average price would edge down 0.6 per cent to around $485,000 this year following a 4.1 per cent drop in 2018. Home sales softened last year in the wake of new mortgage stress test rules and a rise in mortgage rates.Still, CREA’s most recent figures show the national average price for a home sold in May was close to $508,000, up 1.8 per cent from a year ago.Elevated home prices are squeezing some would-be buyers out of the market, sending others to seek out smaller homes and leaving some homeowners in a cash crunch.The Canada Mortgage and Housing Corp. said in May that household debt reached a record high at the end of last year even as mortgage activity slowed compared to a year earlier. Canadians debt-to-income ratio hit a record high of 178.5 per cent in the fourth quarter last year as mortgage holders continued to take on non-mortgage debt.International reports have suggested the Canadian economy could be at risk due to overinflated house prices.Canada’s largest real estate markets are at the highest risk of a major price correction since the 2008 financial crash when the U.S. housing bubble burst sending housing prices lower, said an International Monetary Fund report.The Bank of Canada said in May that housing prices in key markets of Toronto and Vancouver have cooled, but imbalances in real-estate markets are still an important vulnerability in Canada’s overall financial system.However, Canada’s Business Development Bank said that it doesn’t see a crash coming because the economy is doing well and job growth is strong.“As long as people continue to work, they will likely to be able to meet their debt repayments,” it wrote in April.MacBeth believes Canadians’ heavy debt loads and run-up in housing prices in recent years put the country’s housing market on the path to a dramatic correction that will be worse and last longer than what the United States experienced more than a decade ago.“Given that scenario it would be best to wait because the U.S. bubble when it crashed, it took four years to bottom, so one would expect that a larger bubble in Canada would probably take at least that long and probably a little bit longer.”Restoring affordability to housing will require a 40 to 50 per cent decrease in prices from the peak, he said.Prices have come down in Vancouver and while true affordability may never be restored in Toronto, the market is softer.Those in the real estate industry have a different view of what the softening market means for potential buyers and point to historical trends that suggest home purchases are always a wise investment.Phil Soper, chief executive of Royal LePage, one of the country’s largest real estate firms, believes the cooling presents buyers with great opportunities to profit in the long-term as housing inevitably appreciates in value. Canada’s housing market doesn’t have a history of severe depreciations even in tough times and that over several decades, Canadian home prices have appreciated more than five per cent per year, he said.He cautioned buyers not to try to time the housing market by waiting for the ultimate bottom.“Slowdowns are really hard to predict. It’s not necessarily going to happen,” he said.“We’re probably going to see an American recession sometime over the next couple of years which will slow the market in Canada but not necessarily so. And if history is any guide you’ll do well in almost any place in Canada.”The housing market tends to adjust during economic downturns or recessions because the number of homes listed for sale plummets and the number of buyers decrease so supply and demand remains largely in balance.“If you look back over the last 20 or 25 years there have been very few periods where we actually had a drop in prices for more than 12 months in most markets,” said Craig Hennigar, director of market intelligence at Colliers International.With prices flat, and houses sitting longer without offers, it’s a great time to be buying because there is less competition and more opportunity to include conditions such as financing and inspection, says Hennigar.Mortgage rates are also so low that more of the monthly payments can go to principal.The decision to buy a house is more about it meeting your personal needs than it is price and value, he said.“Once you’re used to paying your mortgage do you care what your house is worth until you want to sell it,” Hennigar said.“So it’s really a forced savings. It’s a great tax-free investment that really supports your ability to live your life, which is probably the more important question, but people do get hung up on pricing.”Ross Marowits, The Canadian Press

However measures which the Treasury said received the “most noteworthy” support were encouraging greater use of recycled plastic in manufacturing rather than new plastic, and discouraging the use of difficult to recycle plastics, like carbon black plastic. It comes after the Treasury received a “record breaking” response for the idea, with 162,000 replies from businesses and members of the public. The vast majority of respondents to the consultation, called “tackling the plastic problem”, said they would back a tax charge on single use plastic items including cups, plastic cutlery, lids and straws. The Treasury said the responses would help shape policy ahead of the next Budget in November. Also included on the shortlist of favoured policies were reducing demand for single-use plastics like coffee-cups and takeaway boxes and encouraging recycling instead of incinerating rubbish. Louise Edge, senior plastic pollution campaigner at Greenpeace, said: “Public outrage over the issue of plastic pollution has been explosive over the past year or so. It’s hardly surprising when you see the impact of plastic on wildlife and our oceans, and when it’s clear that so many companies are still pumping out throwaway plastic with no regard for the damage it causes.”The so-called latte levy on disposable coffee cups seems inevitable now, but that should be just the tip of the iceberg. This is a public mandate to end the age of throwaway plastics.” “Our focus is on the producers of those plastics and the retailers who are making the decisions about the types of plastic we see on the shelves, rather than the consumer. “If you read the responses [to the consultation] this is an industry which is very price sensitive so we do believe there is evidence that a tax incentive would be likely to shift behaviour towards more recycled materials. “We have a lot more work to do in the run up to the Budget but we have set out the areas that came up very strongly are the ones we are now doing more work on.” In his last Budget the Chancellor referenced the BBC’s Blue Planet 2 as he announced an investigation into how the tax system and charges on single-use plastic items might be used to reduce waste. “I want us to become a world leader in tackling the scourge of plastic,” he said at the time. He added that the details of any plastic tax announced at the Budget, such as the amount businesses will be charged, and which items will be included, have not yet been decided. A plastic tax will soon be introduced by the government to curb the use of non-recyclable plastic items such as drinking straws, single use cutlery and black food trays, ministers have indicated. The Treasury is working on the details of a new and wide-reaching plastic tax which is expected to be announced in the next Budget. The levy is likely to be applied to businesses producing “bad” plastics to encourage them to switch to more environmentally friendly materials, which are less damaging to the earth. However the cost of such a tax would end up being passed onto consumers through higher prices until shops stop using materials hit by the plastic tax.It is thought these could include a wide range of items including bottles, single use cutlery, drinking straws, takeaway packaging, fruit netting, cling film, crisp packets and plastic wrap. On Friday the Exchequer Secretary, Robert Jenrick, said: “Our primary interest is in how we can persuade the producers of plastic materials and the retailers to choose recycled materials wherever possible rather than new virgin plastics and to deter them from using those types of plastics which are extremely hard or impossible to recycle like black carbon plastic.

Tweet thisShare on FacebookEmail this article WHILE IRELAND AND WALES face off in a World Cup qualifier on Friday, this week also marks the 10-year anniversary of a significant past meeting between the nations.On Saturday, 24 March, 2007, John Toshack’s side travelled to Dublin as part of the Euro 2008 campaign.With Lansdowne Road under construction, however, the fixture was relocated to Croke Park for the first time. One month after the Jones’ Road gates were opened to rugby for Ireland’s historic Six Nations matches against France and England, football would make its debut at the home of the GAA.

Elsewhere, 17-year-old Gareth Bale of Southampton lined out a left full-back. Tuesday 21 Mar 2017, 8:22 PM By Ben Blake Damien Duff tracks Gareth Bale.

Source: sp1873/YouTubeThe result would ease some of the pressure on Stan, but only temporarily as he was sacked after the 1-1 draw with Cyprus that October. A month later, caretaker boss Don Givens took over for the corresponding fixture with Wales in Cardiff, which ended in a 2-2 draw.Ireland missed qualification and finished third in the group behind the Czech Republic and Germany, while Wales were two points back in fifth.John O’Shea and Kevin Doyle are among three players in the current squad (Aiden McGeady is the other) who featured for Ireland the day.This afternoon, the pair were asked for their memories of the game…O’Shea: We won anyway.Doyle: Stephen Ireland scored a good goal. I remember being injured in the lead-up to it and I was desperate to get back fit as I wanted to play in that first game. I think I came on in the second half.We won the game? There was a good, positive atmosphere — the first game in Croke Park and it all went off well. I’m sure we all, well I know I did… you grew up going to Croke Park watching Wexord play or Waterford… or Kilkenny.Who did you (looks at O’Shea)? Whoever is doing well, John supports.O’Shea: Sly dig! My dad’s a Kilkenny man so that’s how I grew up. When I was old enough myself, that’s when I was a Waterford man.Doyle: I was proud to play at the time. My mother played there when she was young and it was nice to able to follow that.O’Shea: Thankfully we won and it was a historical occasion too. I remember the victory for us but at the time too, the rugby, Ireland playing England, it was historic so to be part of that was very special.Watch O’Shea and Doyle discuss it: Source: The42.ie/YouTubeThe42 is on Instagram!

Gennaro Gattuso was rewarded for his side’s improvement and he signed an extended deal until 2021 with AC Milan – and he believes that he will be able to bring the old famous team back.This season was very unsuccessful for the Rossoneri under Vincenzo Montella – but then, Gattuso took over and he managed to bounce back with his team and to fight for the top spots.The former midfielder spoke about his side’s future and his new contract as he said, according to Football Italia:“I am very proud and it was a special moment.”

Reserving event space at one of Clark County’s parks will become easier next year, officials say, and that comes as good news to Judith Even of Ridgefield.For years, she’s been organizing the Jones family reunion at Lewisville Park, outside Battle Ground. But 2014 could become the first year when the reunion doesn’t happen, at least not at Lewisville, and that’s cause for frustration.She wasn’t able to reserve her preferred spot Monday, the sole day on which the county took in-person and phone reservations on a first-come, first-served basis.After spending 2.5 hours on the phone attempting to lay claim to one of the park’s shelters, only to be put on hold, she made her way down to the Clark County Operations Center to reserve a spot in person. By the time she got there, around 1 p.m., she was told the park was already booked solid.“The whole thing is frustrating,” she said. “Anything has to be better than this.”The county plans to ease some of that frustration this spring by creating an online system for reserving park space. The system would allow prospective park users to reserve a spot up to a year in advance.

Senator Bill Wielechowski plans to file a lawsuit Friday seeking to force the Permanent Fund Corporation to transfer the full amount for Permanent Fund dividends this year.Listen nowSen. Bill Wielechowski fields a question from a reporter during a Senate Minority press availability, Jan. 28, 2015. (Photo by Skip Gray, 360 North)If successful, the lawsuit would double the dividend amount, from one thousand dollars to more than two thousand dollars.Wielechowski’s suit would essentially override Governor Bill Walker’s veto of half of dividend funding. The Anchorage Democratic senator said his research into the constitutional amendment and laws that provide for dividends show the money isn’t subject to annual spending by the legislature. He said Walker can’t veto it.“I have concluded that it was clearly the intent of the legislature and the people of Alaska to allow the legislature to put in statute provisions such are in current statute, that are not subject to appropriations,” Wielechowski said.State Department of Law officials have said all annual state spending – including dividends — is subject to the governor’s veto.Wielechowski pointed to a 1994 Alaska Supreme Court decision that ruled that Permanent Fund earnings go directly into the Permanent Fund earnings reserve account.“Because it is not an appropriation, its placement in the budget is superfluous and there was no – the veto is meaningless,” Wielechowski said.Wielechowski said he will seek an expedited hearing so that the lawsuit can be resolved before dividends are sent on October 6th.
