The sole f80 Review

Hey, treadmill reviews calm. Today we are looking at the sole f80. This is one of our top picks for treadmills under $ 1500. So this machine is super easy to assemble, which is one of the reasons we like it.

One person can put it together very quickly with just a little bit of help from a second when putting on the console. It'S super sturdy and it has a very high weight capacity at 375 pounds. There'S a 3.5 CHP motor in this treadmill, the frame, deck and motor have a lifetime.

Warranty parts have five years and labor has two. It also has a larger running surface. Most machines we look at are about 20 inches by 60. This is a 22 by 60-inch running surface. It'S also super quiet, so it runs about 60 to 78 decibels. [ Music ] all right, so the sole f80 is a folding treadmill and for people who don't have a dedicated space for their treadmill.

This is great feature. It'S really easy to fold: it's really easy to move, so you can kind of store it away and move it out of the way. We'Ll show you how that works, but there's a bar right here on the back end, if you don't grab the bar you'll, probably pinch your fingers, so you just cannot grab the bar, which is every other machine.

It'S really easy. It'S right here and it lifts super easy. If there's a hydraulic in there that helps you, you just stick it up and you'll hear it. Click into place and it'll sit all day itself. So, even if you pull on this, it's not gon na fall down. There'S a latch right here, which you pull to release and I'll show you that in just a second, but I want to show you how you can move this machine really easily. There'S four wheels so two in the front, and then these two back here you can place your foot and pull it down and wiggle it around this way.

You can also slide it this way, so it moves really easy um if you're just pulling it. You know side to side and not doing like massive moving I'll show you an easy way to move it too. If you pull this lever and the machine will lower itself with the hydraulic, so it goes down nice and slow if you're, just gon na slide it back and forth like out of a closet or just out of the way, it's really really easy to move like This it's just it's super light, so you can move it all by yourself.

Okay, now we're going to take a look at the features that the sole f80 treadmill has they're a little underwhelming, but it has everything you need to get a good workout in right.

Here. We have two fans and they're kind of pointless, especially if you're tall you're, not gon na, feel it. You have to sound really close to the console, while you're running to get anything out of there, so you're gon na expect to need a different fan. Next to your treadmill, if you want to breathe while you're running, there's five storage, cubbies, so one two and then three four five down here on the bottom, so a lot of space to hold your water bottles. There'S also this tray right here.

If you want to set your phone or your tablet or your book down the little lips, so that'll hold that on there, for you there's a nine inch LCD, backlit display and then, as far as heart rate monitors go. They have the handles where you can hold and check your heart rate. It also comes with this polar heartrate. Chest strap monitor, so this thing's really great when you're exercising cuz tracking your heart rate.

This way is the most accurate way you can do it. However, with this one there's a little bit of a lag time when you're first starting to run, it takes a couple minutes to display an accurate reading, it's kind of all over the board for the first minute or two, while it adjusts to picking up the rhythm Of your heart rate for the incline and the decline, you have these buttons right here for just a quick adjust one three, five, seven it skips up, but you can do larger integers for changing your incline right here.

They also have a smaller integer change. With these up and down buttons on the handlebar, if you use the handlebars a lot, they can sometimes get in your way, so you just have to get used to not grabbing on to the handlebar right here.

The same goes for the speed, so you can go and in a whole miles per hour and then some for changing speeds right here and then you can in a tenth of a mile per hour, if you're, using these up and down arrows right here on the Handle but this name goes, as you know, the decline kind of in the way, but you just have to get used to it.

There'S an mp3 plug where you can plug your phone or mp3 player in here, and it will project the sound from your speakers. So there's two speakers: there's no volume control on the console, so you'll have to adjust it with your device. It'S a little a little strange and then we can't really figure out a good application for this headphones jack.

If you want to plug your music in here, you could project it through your headphones here. Maybe that's a better option for some people if their cord gets in the way, there's really no other application for it, but that's it for the features.

The sol-fa TM has a nine inch LCD backlit display screen. It shows you your incline and distance, and over here it shows you your speed and calories burned with your overall time. This is just a standard track and it shows your progress as you're running it laps around a track.

Any workout that you select will show you like your speed and your incline variation here on this graph.

Then it shows your heart rate right here and then your heart rate zone, so whatever percentage your heart rate is at the you know, based on your heart rate zones, is gon na. Tell you what kind of workout you're getting so right now I have the chest strap line and it starts out a little a little wonky but as you've been running for a minute or two it'll, really sync, with your heart rate and so it'll give you a Good accurate read it just takes a second to get there to access their programs.

They have all the buttons right here. So there's a manual and then five standard settings you just hit, you know like he'll and it has one workout for a hillclimb fat burn. Cardio strength, interval, they're all the same.

You hit the button and it's one workout. You don't have to go through a bunch options or pick which one which can be a downside if you're looking for more options versus like beginner intermediate advanced the upside to this.

It'S a great machine for somebody who wants to step on the treadmill, push a button and start running, there's just no fuss with it. These two programs are for individual users, where you can customize your workout based on.

You know certain certain stats about yourself and then you can also do a heartrate customized workouts, where you set a target heart rate, and then you do your exercise from there. There are also incline options right here where you can adjust your incline and then the speed right here where you can go up and down with your speed as well.

So this is basically, you know a classic treadmill. It'S not super tech, heavy, it's great for people who just want to you know, get on and start running other machines that are more of a tech. Heavy machine are geared towards those who are comfortable with a tablet, and if you're, not somebody who's comfortable with that, you'd probably feel a lot more comfortable on the sole f80.

All right. So now we're gon na. Take you through the sole f80 as it's actually going, so you can get a good feel for the sound any of the noise output output. We'Re gon na turn on some music through the speakers.

So you can hear how that works and also show you the incline and decline and the speed capabilities. This treadmill can go from 0 to 12 miles per hour.

The incline that goes from a zero to a 15 % incline, so we're gon na start with the fan. Actually, you can hear the noise from the fan to kind of see what it does again. It'S just kind of pointless, but we'll show you anyway, so it has one setting you just turn it on makes a little bit of noise.

You can kind of see the power, but not really so we'll just turn that off and then with the music. We have a phone plugged in so that we can project it and there's no volume control on the console. So that's something you have to do from your device. So there's a little taste of that.

I'M going to go ahead and turn it on to a three with the manual setting and push start. Okay, so it'll go up to a three and we'll take it all the way to the 15 percent incline [, Music ]. One thing that I don't love about. This machine is that the handlebars don't extend very far back, so I feel a little insecure walking on it because my feet easily hit this belt cover.

So I have to stand back which takes me away from the handlebars.

That'S something that you can get used to. If you're an excellent runner - and you don't plant your foot in front of yourself - then it's you probably don't have to worry about it, but it is a consideration. So this is at 15 % incline, and this is the max that it'll go and you can't hit a zero just to take it all the way back to a flat.

The lowest interval it has is a 1, and then you have to use the arrows to get all the way back to a zero.

Ok, so that's a 1 and you just bump it down again and you can get it to 0 and then I'll increase the speed and you can listen for the sound that it makes as you run, [ Music ]. So this is not seven miles per hour, so this machine also comes with a cushion flex suspension.

You can probably see the tread balancing as I'm running, but it's not a huge cushion, there's a little bit there. But if you hop off this and keep running on pavement, it's still, you know. They'Re pretty similar, so it's not a huge ad for their cushion flex.

Another thing that we noticed is that their side rails are super slippery. So if you have a shoe with a lot of tread on it, it might not be as big of a problem, but that is something to watch out for as well

The bottom line is that the sole f80 is a really good treadmill. It'S got a super solid, build and a very strong motor. If you are at a higher weight, then this is gon na, be a great machine for you, because it has one of the highest weight capacities and if you're not looking for something, that's really tech heavy. It is a great simple machine that you can get on and get a good workout with, and it's gon na last you for a long time.

All these reasons are why this is one of our top picks for treadmills under $ 1500 to read our full review.

Since 9/11, US Muslims Have Gained Unprecedented Political, Cultural Influence

— By Steve Friess | 09/01/21

It's been an impressive 2021 so far for Muslim Americans. The U.S. Senate, that bastion of partisan gridlock, overwhelmingly confirmed the nation's first Muslims as a federal district court judge and to chair the Federal Trade Commission. Legislatures in five states swore in their first Muslim members, including a nonbinary, queer hijab-wearing representative in, of all places, Oklahoma. Three Detroit suburbs are poised this fall to elect their first Muslim mayors. The New York Jets tapped Robert Saleh as the first Muslim head coach of any American pro sports team. CBS premiered, then renewed The United States of Al, the first broadcast network sitcom with a Muslim lead character. And Riz Ahmed, star of Sound of Metal, became the first Muslim nominated for an Oscar for Best Actor.

"Everywhere I look, I see firsts happening," says MLB Tonight sportscaster Adnan Virk, who in 2012 became the first on-air Muslim host on ESPN.

As the 20th anniversary of September 11 approaches, the recent rise of many Muslim Americans to positions of power and influence—in Washington and in statehouses, on big screens and small ones, across playing fields and news desks—is a development that few in the U.S. would have predicted two decades ago, Muslims included. In the immediate aftermath of the terrorist attacks by the radical Islamic sect Al-Qaeda, anti-Muslim hate crimes exploded and the ensuing global "war on terror" to root out jihadists created a "climate of discrimination, fear and intolerance," as one think tank described it, that surrounded people of Islamic faith in this country and lasted for years. Then, just as heightened anti-Muslim sentiment in the U.S. seemed to be subsiding, Donald Trump was elected president in 2016 on an agenda overtly hostile towards Muslims, and revved it up again.

It is the experience of coming of age in this post-9/11 environment, experts say, that drew a new generation of young Muslims to activism, and motivated them to use their voices in political and cultural arenas to debunk misinformation. That they've found a receptive audience beyond the Muslim community suggests to some observers that many Americans now understand that the anti-Islamic rhetoric they've been served in recent years is based on myths and untrue. As Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison, who in 2007 became the first Muslim sworn in as a member of Congress, tells Newsweek, "The haters have been proven to be liars."

Maybe. But trend data suggests the answer is not that simple and anti-Islamic sentiment remains a factor 20 years after 9/11. Anti-Muslim hate crimes, for instance, are second only to anti-Semitic incidents, FBI statistics show. And in a Gallup poll, one-third of Americans, and a full 62 percent of Republicans, said they'd never vote for a Muslim candidate for president, by far the least support for people of any religion in the survey.

Is the recent rise of Muslim Americans to positions of prominence a temporary surge forged during the backlash of the Trump era or a permanent change in American consciousness? Are the constant, often viciously personal attacks on Representatives Ilhan Omar of Minnesota and Rashida Tlaib of Michigan—the most famous Muslims in American politics as well as two of the nation's most strident progressives—a last gasp of Islamophobia or proof that, in some quarters at least, it's never going away? If, in fact, the political and cultural shift toward Muslims has staying power, what will the impact be?

The answers are still unfolding. "Muslims are becoming more a part of the American tapestry, but they are still a marginalized group," says political scientist Youssef Chouhoud of Christopher Newport University in Newport News, Virginia. "The question now is, OK, so you have these Muslims in public office, in the public eye, on commercials, on TV shows. But does it stick? That's TBD."

Identity Forged in Adversity

When the attacks by Al-Qaeda occurred 20 years ago, the makeup of the Muslim community in the U.S. was much different than it is today: significantly smaller, older, more conservative, less organized, and made up of more Black Americans and far fewer recent immigrants.

In 2001, roughly 1 million Muslims lived in the U.S., according to the Association of Religious Data Archives, versus 3.5 million recently. As a group, they formed a solid Republican voting bloc, with the immigrant community in particular drawn to the GOP's messages of self-reliance, small government and conservative social policies on issues like abortion and gay rights. George W. Bush won 72 percent of Muslim votes in 2000, according to the Council on American Islamic Relations, or CAIR; other polls put the figure lower by still showed a big GOP tilt. After 9/11 that support plummeted, with just 7 percent backing Bush in his 2004 face-off with Democrat John Kerry.

Party affiliation wasn't the only shift among Muslims in the U.S. in the post-9/11 years. Before the attacks, Muslim Americans seldom saw themselves as a single community bound by a common faith as much as a disparate collection of distinct ethnic groups—Iranian, Iraqi, Syrian, Pakistani and Egyptian among many others—that kept to and fended for themselves, says Niloofar Haeri, chair of Islamic Studies in the anthropology department at Johns Hopkins University. The other large bloc of Muslims in the country were Black Americans who saw the Islam of Malcolm X and boxer Muhammed Ali as both a religion and a political identity used to advocate for the poor and marginalized. That application of the faith, says Haeri, unsettled many immigrant Muslims who came to the U.S. to escape theocracies.

Then came the ferocious backlash after the September 11 attacks, marked by a wave of physical and verbal assaults on Muslims and anyone who "looked" Muslim. According to the FBI, there were 28 reports of anti-Muslim hate crimes in 2000; in 2001, that number had climbed to nearly 500. Although then-President George W. Bush had initially urged people not to take out their fear and anger Muslim Americans, his administration later went on to surveil mosques and college Muslim organizations looking for terrorists and invaded Iraq in 2003 on later-debunked claims of involvement with Al-Qaeda and plans to build weapons of mass destruction. Many Christian religious leaders during this period made harsh anti-Islamic remarks as well.

Conservative politicians also spent several campaign cycles in the post-9/11 period ginning up public fear that Muslims wanted to impose Sharia in America—that is, turn religious strictures of Islam into laws akin to those of some Middle Eastern theocracies. "For a while Republicans were all about banning Sharia law, which doesn't exist anywhere in America that I'm aware of," Ellison says. "In another way, every Muslim does 'Sharia law' every day. When I pray, that's Sharia. When I fast for Ramadan, that's Sharia. When I don't eat pork, that's Sharia. And these are the people who say they defend religious freedom."

All of this stoked fear of unwarranted reprisals among Muslim Americans and helped forge a generation of young activists who are now winning political office from city council to Congress, Chouhoud says. By 2007, 84 percent of 12- to 18-year-old Muslim Americans said they had experienced at least one act of anti-Islamic discrimination in the prior year, a New York University study found. In 2009, more than 82 percent of Muslims in the U.S. reported feeling unsafe, an Adelphi University survey found.

Muslim Americans faced a choice: Grin and bear it or band together and respond, Haeri says. "One of the most consequential changes that happened in various Muslim communities post-9/11 was that those Muslims who were not religious and did not identify as Muslim before 9/11 were suddenly being treated as Muslims whether they wanted to be or not and were asked questions about Islam," Haeri recalls. "Muslim communities filled with newly self-identifying Muslims. There was a lot of soul searching: Why are we shunning this heritage entirely?"

Meanwhile, more religious Muslim Americans, especially the ones who fled autocratic regimes and failed economies, baffled over questions about their patriotism. "We had to redefine ourselves and push back against injustice—from our country, from the government, from the media, from popular culture," says Nihad Awad, co-founder and executive director of CAIR. "We felt the pain about 9/11 that everyone felt but more pain than many because we were blamed for what happened—something we had nothing to do with."

Adversity fused a far-flung gaggle of nationalities into a coalition of necessity, says Democratic Representative Andre Carson of Indiana, who in 2008 became the second Muslim elected Congress. "This role was paved decades ago by the indigenous African-American Muslim community, but 9/11 allowed the immigrant Muslim community to see that the African-American Muslim community was right all along in calling out racial injustices, calling out governmental excess as it relates to violations of civil liberties and spying on fellow U.S. citizens," says Carson, who is Black.

At the same time, throughout the Bush and Obama years, the pace of immigration to the U.S. from Muslim-majority nations in the Middle East, Asia and Africa surged. Between 2002 and 2016, the number of Muslim refugees accepted into U.S. rose 627 percent—from about 6,000 a year to almost 40,000—which, along with the highest birth rate of any religious group, caused the sharp increase in the Muslim population. The influx has since stopped, as the Trump administration cut the number of refugees accepted into the U.S. to an all-time low of fewer than 12,000 in total, almost all of whom were Christian, according to State Department data.

During the period, Muslim visibility in everyday life increased for many because of where they live now: the suburbs. Nearly half of mosques are now in bedroom communities outside major cities, up from 38 percent in 2010, according to a July report from the Institute for Social Policy and Understanding, which researches trends in American Muslim life. At the same time, the actual number of mosques rose dramatically, more than doubling from 1,209 to 2,769 since 2000.

"The age-old pattern of immigrants achieving financial success and moving away from cities seems to be repeating itself in the American Muslim community," ISPU notes.

By the election of Trump, who as a candidate in 2015 called for a "total and complete shutdown of Muslims entering the United States," the American Muslim community was bigger, brasher and uniformly unwilling to roll over. Indeed, observes MSNBC anchor Ali Velshi, Trump's effort to ostracize Muslims, and a subsequent rise in anti-Muslim rhetoric and hate crimes to levels not seen since 2001, lit a spark.

"Something is happening right now," says Velshi, who is believed to be the first Muslim to helm a cable network news program. "It feels like a flourishing of Muslims across industries and across platforms."

Running While Muslim

The arc of Sadaf Jaffer's adult life—from college freshman at Georgetown during 9/11 to the nation's first female Muslim mayor in 2019—offers a useful road map of what has happened to Muslims in U.S. politics over the past two decades and, particularly, recently.

The 38-year-old, who was born in Chicago to immigrants from Pakistan and Yemen, had planned to be a U.S. diplomat and interned at both the State Department and the Marine Corps. But she became increasingly distressed by the anti-Islam sentiment rising across the U.S. and, in 2007, shifted her focus, enrolling at Harvard to pursue a doctorate in philosophy focused on Islamic cultures in South Asia. Her goal: "Understanding Muslim societies better so I could teach about Muslim societies in their complexity."

By 2017, she was a professor at Princeton University so alarmed by the election of Donald Trump that she decided to go into politics by running for a seat on the Montgomery Township Committee, the governing council for a wealthy, fast-growing New Jersey burg of 24,000 residents about 20 miles north of Trenton. Even on such a small scale, the notion terrified her family. "My parents told me, 'Shouldn't we lie low and not draw attention to ourselves right now?' but I felt like if we don't stand up for our rights now, who's to say that we'll even have rights moving forward," Jaffer says.

Jaffer won that seat and, in 2019, was elevated to mayor. Her status as the nation's first female Muslim mayor, she says, was blared in foreboding tones across pro-Trump news sites and Twitter. "That caused an avalanche of hate mail—violent ones, too, about how all of us should be removed from the planet," she says.

It didn't deter her from seeking higher office. This June, she won the Democratic nomination for a seat in the New Jersey Assembly; if she wins this fall, she'll be the first Muslim (and first Asian American) in the Garden State's legislature. She is bracing for some anti-Muslim sentiment but also views her campaigns as a chance to debunk constituents' misconceptions about Islam.

"Those person-to-person connections are really important," she says. "They're about getting to know people as human beings."

If Jaffer wins, she'll follow on the success in the 2020 election that brought the first Muslim legislators to capitols of Delaware, Oklahoma, Colorado, Florida and Wisconsin, and the first re-election of Omar and Tlaib. There are other firsts likely to come this fall too; the top vote-getters in the August primaries for mayor of Detroit suburbs Dearborn, Dearborn Heights and Hamtramck—enclaves with large Muslim populations—were all Muslims.

In all, a record 170 Muslim candidates were on ballots in 28 states in 2020, up from 57 in 2018, and 62 of them won. Exit polling showed that more than 1 million Muslims voted last year, also a record.

"When Trump won, it was a wake-up call for the community," says Wa'el Alzayat, the CEO of Emgage, an organization promoting civic engagement among Muslim American communities.

Also notable: Almost all of these winners are Millennials; Tlaib, at 45 and slightly older than that cohort, is an exception. And most of these Muslim politicans report being the target of some form of anti-Islam sentiment while running.

"They sent out emails connecting me with Ilhan Omar and accusing all the Muslim candidates running across the country of being Islamist or Jihadists," says Delaware state Representative Madinah Wilson-Anton, 27, who ousted a 20-year Democratic incumbent in 2020 to become her chamber's first Muslim. "I was door-knocking and someone was like, 'Go back to your country.'"

Wilson-Anton is not the only Muslim candidate whose religion is used by opponents as grounds to call their qualifications for office into question. In June, GOP Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene of Georgia sent a fundraising email attacking Omar as a "terrorist-supporting member of the Jihad Squad." Sam Rasoul, the first Muslim to run for lieutenant governor in Virginia, was asked in May by a debate moderator whether he could reassure voters he would "represent all of them, regardless of faith or beliefs." And Joe Biden's nominee for deputy administrator of the Small Business Administration, health care executive Dilawar Syed, is in confirmation limbo after two GOP senators objected to the fact that he is on the board of Emgage, the Muslim nonprofit. (He says he'll resign if confirmed.)

In each of these recent cases, though, a broad spectrum from various religious and ideological groups have joined Muslims to object to how the candidates are being treated. An opponent of Rasoul's, for instant, lambasted the debate moderator from the stage for asking the question and social media scorn was so swift that an anchor for the TV station, WJLA, apologized that night on the air. In Syed's case, several Jewish groups are rallying to his side.

"Overall," says Emgage CEO Alzayat, "things are moving in the right direction."

A Growing Impact

In office, many of these legislators can point to measures influenced directly by their Muslim backgrounds. Wilson-Anton in June pushed through a new law requiring schools to excuse student absences for religious observances such as Muslim or Jewish holidays. Saqib Ali, who at age 31 in 2006 was elected Maryland's first Muslim state legislator, co-sponsored a law with a Jewish colleague allowing for the licensure of funeral directors who do not embalm bodies because observant members of both faiths do not do so. After someone left a slab of pork on a Muslim family's car in her town, Jaffer started the Montgomery Mosaic, a monthly series of community-wide events to combat hate crimes.

More broadly, Chouhoud says, having more Muslims in the halls of power has changed some conversations. In May, when violence erupted between Israel and Palestine, for example, several Democratic leaders in Washington expressed concern about Israel's aggressive response and the plight of Palestinians. That, he says, was due in part to the activism of Omar and Tlaib. "It's pretty undeniable that the presence of Ilhan Omar and Rashida Tlaib in Congress has given voice to opinions that other Congresspeople in the past have either shied away from or found to be outside of the bounds of what they can actually say, even if they personally held those positions," he says.

Indeed, the congresswomen, both of whom declined Newsweek's requests for interviews, are considered inspirational trailblazers by many within the American Islamic community who see them exploding myths about Muslim women being docile and submissive, Haeri says. Even their differences—Omar wears a hijab, Tlaib is famous for her penchant for swearing—shows "the diversity of Muslim women in a way that surprises and educates a lot of people," Haeri says.

Virtually every Muslim elected to state legislatures—and all four who have ever been elected to Congress—are progressive Democrats; Carson, the Indiana congressman, was among the first elected officials to endorse Vermont Senator Bernie Sanders, a Democratic Socialist, for the 2016 Democratic presidential nomination. Sanders held firm to that support four years later; a CAIR survey in February 2020 found 39 percent of Muslim Democrats supported Sanders versus 27 percent for Biden. For many Americans, this alignment defies well-worn stereotypes about Muslims as extreme social conservatives who would not support a pro-choice, pro-LGBTQ Jewish candidate.

Yet the Omar-Tlaib approach is offensive and troubling for some politically conservative Muslims, who object to what they say is an underlying message that Muslims are badly-treated victims of bias. "The experience of American Muslims is one that's overwhelmingly positive," says Omar Qudrat, 40, of California who in 2018 was the first Muslim to win the GOP nomination for a seat in Congress. (He lost by 23 points.) "Many of us reject the victimhood narrative. Do we have problems? Absolutely. But it would be tragic for any young American Muslim to believe all they amount to is being a victim of this great country."

Qudrat and prominent Muslim conservative Zuhdi Jasser defend Trump's policies as being in the interest of national security and praise him for brokering treaties between Israel and Bahrain and the United Arab Emirates. "I'm not embarrassed of my faith," says Jasser, a Phoenix physician appointed by Republican Senator Mitch McConnell in 2012 to the U.S. Commission on International Religious Freedom. "But I understand the mindset of a country that was attacked. Those wounds are still very deep."

There is an audience for this view: Trump modestly increased his share of the Muslim vote in 2020 to 17 percent from 13 percent in 2016, CAIR reports.

"Muslims are still a relatively socially conservative population," Chouhoud says. "Certain values and priorities do overlap between Muslims and Republicans. It's just that there's the sense that there is no place for Muslims within the Republican Party."

Jasser maintains the GOP is not as anti-Muslim as progressives believe, citing the confirmations earlier this summer of Lina Khan to chair the FTC and Judge Zahid Quraishi to the federal bench, by wide bipartisan margins. Awad, of CAIR, counters by citing Republican opposition to other Muslims nominated by Biden for positions within the administration, such as Reema Dudin as deputy director of the White House Office of Legislative Affairs, and the long GOP-led delay on Syed's bid for an SBA post.

"To dismiss the rest of the Muslim community's concerns about discrimination, they must be living on the moon," Awad says. "I have not met a Muslims since 9/11 who has not experienced some form of discrimination."

Alzayat of Emgage, for one, hopes the GOP does, in fact, become more hospitable. "There will come a day when we have Muslim Republicans running, Muslim Democrats running, Muslim independents running, and they can have healthy disagreements about policies," Alzayat says. "That would be good for the community and good for democracy."

The Stars and the Crescent

This moment of ascendence for American Muslims is not only about political achievements. Popular culture, too, is seeing a sharp increase in Muslim representation, and the two trends feed each other. Movies and television offer familiarity that helps fuel acceptance, allowing many non-Muslim Americans who don't personally know anyone who practices Islam to see Muslim characters woven into the fabric of everyday life.

"It's an opportunity to create greater empathy for and less prejudice towards Muslims off-screen," says Arij Mikati of Pillars Fund, a Muslim philanthropy that next year will award $25,000 grants to 10 Muslim TV or movie storytellers.

Among those helping to drive this new level of cultural visibility: Ramy Youssef, who won a Golden Globe and a Peabody Award in 2020 for Ramy, a half-hour Hulu dramedy about a first-generation Muslim-American millennial struggling with his faith. Also in the cast for the show's second season was Mahershala Ali, the first Muslim actor to win an Academy Award, for his supporting roles in Moonlight (2016) and Green Book (2018). Disney+ is due this fall to drop Ms. Marvel, introducing Marvel's first Muslim superhero, a shapeshifting, bubble-gum-chewing Pakistani-American teen from New Jersey. And there are past and present recent series like Patriot Act with Hasan Minhaj and United States of Al, a CBS sitcom about a U.S. war veteran who helps his Afghan interpreter move to Ohio.

Jaffer, the Montgomery Township mayor, says she's also noticed greater Muslim visibility on kids' shows like Sesame Street and Peg Plus Cat, and it's extended to her daughter's first-grade classroom, where the teacher this spring read a book about Ramadan to students. "Those things seem like little victories, that our celebrations are being recognized as part of America,'" she says. "It's nice, because as a child, I had to explain everything. Just imagine asking a six-year-old to answer, 'What is Christmas?'"

Some Muslim actors and celebrities say they try to advance the ball, talking openly about their faith and cultural identity when asked—or not asked. Adnan Virk, while still at ESPN in 2016, recalls being asked to help anchor coverage after boxer Muhammed Ali died. "One of our producers called and said, 'Hey, we don't know anything about Islamic funerals. Could you come in?'" Virk recalls. "That made sense. They wouldn't know. Open casket, closed casket? What prayers are they reciting? Why is he draped in white? That was a cool moment."

Comic Negin Farsad, a frequent panelist on the NPR quiz show Wait Wait...Don't Tell Me!, says she takes "any occasion I can when it fits organically in the joke to make mention of being Muslim. I do that to let people know that one of their favorite radio comedy shows has a Muzz on it and it's cool."

And MSNBC's Velshi says he intentionally tries to bring on guests and experts who are Muslims and of other marginalized communities to talk about topics unrelated to their identities. "It's the simplest thing in the world to do to break down barriers, to cause people to open their minds," Velshi says. "I want my roster of guests to look like the full breadth of America. Familiarity breeds understanding."

But while there are undeniably more Muslims in higher visibility and breakthrough roles, experts in and outside of the American Islamic community note that the numbers and depictions still don't come close to fair representation. A USC Annenberg study this June of 200 popular global movies from 2017 to 2019 found that just 1.1 percent of the speaking characters in U.S. films and 1.6 percent overall were Muslim, still frequently stereotyped as outsiders, threatening or subservient, particularly to white characters.

"More than half of the primary and secondary Muslim characters were immigrants, migrants, or refugees, which consistently rendered Muslims as 'foreign,'" says Al-Baab Khan, one of the study authors. "Film audiences only see a narrow portrait of this community, rather than viewing Muslims as they are: business owners, friends and neighbors whose presence is part of modern life."

A Long Road Ahead

The challenges Muslim Americans face in popular culture in many ways mirror the political environment: The gains are real, increasingly visible and more prominent, but for now at least, still relatively modest—and, Muslim activists worry, too easily at risk of being erased.

They point out, for instance, that there's never been a Muslim in the U.S. Senate, elected as governor or appointed to a Cabinet position. Another major terrorist attack involving extremist Muslims, a successful White House comeback for Trump or the election of a similarly-minded candidate could once again sour public opinion or create new dangers.

"Trump was able to capitalize on bigotry, on ignorance and racism, on fear," said CAIR's Awad. "He mobilized it, weaponized it, made it official. His impact is still with us. And he might come back."

Still, the progress thus far has Muslim leaders cautiously optimistic and thirsting for more. Haeri hopes to see more taught in schools about Islam's history, noting the contributions of Muslim scientists and artists are absent from the education of most American children. Carson, the Indiana congressman, looks forward to the day he can donate to the first Muslim to run for president. Farsad just wants better roles to play. "I'm both ashamed and unashamed to admit that I have auditioned for the wife of a terrorist," she says. "That's what was available."

"We've been so underrepresented for so long, we're just working to even out the odds," Emgage's Alazayat says. "The question is not, 'Wow, look at how much we've done.' We should expect more."

Phlizon Newest 600w LED Grow Light Review & Comparison

Let’s start with my personal opinion about this full spectrum LED grow light...

All in all, the Phlizon Newest 600W LED Grow Light is good value for money in case you are starting with a tiny budget. 

It is powerful, well made and includes some handy functionality.

Have a look at what clients had to say or keep reading for a complete break down of attributes, compared with other best 600w LED grow lights, and often asked questions.

Here is what I enjoyed...

It delivers a nicely equilibrium spectrum of blue and red light, meaning your plants will probably be receiving the best wavelengths of light in both veg and flowering phases.

That I really like the fact that in this low price it includes UV and IR wavelengths, that are shown to help create larger and stronger buds.

The capability to daisy-chain these lighting is a big incentive for me personally, like I normally hang two 600w bulbs side-by-side.

The provider supplies a strong 3 year guarantee and has exceptional customer support if anything should go wrong.

It includes Veg and Bloom switches so it is possible to optimise the lighting intensity for every phase of your plants development.

The addition of a thermometer/humidity screen is also a cool inclusion, since it saves you having to buy one individually!

Here is exactly what I did not enjoy...

The PAR output with this light might be a bit higher to fall over the best ranges ( see below to learn more about this )

though it's advertised as a 600w mild, this lighting real wattage (power consumption) is just 108 watts, which means it is potent enough to develop to 3 crops.

Phlizon Newest 600w LED Grow Light Review

Phlizon 600w Characteristics:

Ok, here is a list of the attributes of those Phlizon 600w.

I will discuss the ones in detail under:

Veg Area coverage: 3 x at 24"

Flowering Area protection: 2.5 x 2.5 feet at 24"

Power: Replaces a 400 watt HID; Consumes 108 watts

PAR Output: 260 umol/m2/s in 24″

Number of crops: 1-3 ( we advocated 3 )

Dimensions: 6.7 x 15.7 x 2.36 inches

Warranty: two years guarantee + 30 days money back warranty

Spectrum: Total spectrum (such as infrared and UV )

Weight: 4.85 pounds

Lifespan: 100,000 hours; 16 hr daily limitation

Great for: Veg & Flower Stages

Spectrum

Among the characteristics of the light is the spectrum of it. 

It utilizes lights to the cycle involving crimson and 430-660nm lights.

These are ranges that are best and LED grow lights do this right.

However, the Phlizon 600w also includes UV and IR wavelengths.

UV wavelengths cause your plant to enter"defence mode" and create more trichomes (THC) so your buds will probably be stronger.

IR was shown to permeate crops deeper, resulting in bigger leafs and larger buds.

So that you can see why the addition of IR and UV is a fantastic thing.

Spectrum Rating: 5/5 

PAR Output

This is the 1 area of the light. 

PAR is a dimension that is critical, as it is the dimension.

Here's a table using the PAR outputs at different phases vs the Phlizon PAR output:

So as you can see in the table above, the Phlizon 600w generates the PAR output for seedlings, but falls out of the ranges for flowering and veg.

This does not follow that the lighting will produce consequences ! It merely means you likely won't calculate your plants' possibility.

In case PAR output is significant to youpersonally, I suggest you checkout the Viparspectra 600w.

PAR Functioning Rating: 3.5/5 

Additional Functionality

The Phlizon 600w also get's high marks in our performance category.

It includes the capability to daisy chain multiple lighting without the need for outlets.

This is essential have if you enjoy with distance grows without lot of wires!

This light includes two buttons which will reevaluate the degree of the lights to if your crops flowering and are currently vegging, meaning less time tweaking bending heights and fretting about burn. 

Add to this the fact that it comes the performance, with a thermometer and humidity screen.

Functionality Rating: 5/5 

Power

It wattage is 108w, so bear this in mind, Even though the Phlizon is promoted as a increase mild. 

Bear in Mind, for optimum results, 1 square foot of mature space necessitates approximately 32w of True power*

*Many mature light producers utilize the joint quantity of LED's about the lighting from the title to make the light look more striking. However, this is that the electricity if operate at full capability, the light is competent. The wattage of the lighting is the number of watts the mild is currently swallowing.

However, as this increase 108 watts is just consumed by mild, it will not have a large effect on your power bill.

Functionality Rating: 4.5/5 

Warranty

I like to find a guarantee with almost any product I purchase online. 

Phlizon provide a 2 year guarantee plus a 30 day money-back guarantee.

They look very responsive to client problems on Amazon, which is a indication that 100 percent stand behind their goods.

Functionality Rating: 5/5 

Phlizon 600w Replies

I'll compare the Phlizon to 2 popular 600w lights grow -- also the MarsHydro 600w along with the Viparspectra 600w. 

Let us see which comes out on top!

Our top picks in same segment

As you can see in the table above, the Viparspectra 600w certainly comes out on top, using a greater PAR output and policy area.

However, power is consumed by the Phlizon 600w and costs less.

This makes it the ideal alternative for growers to a budget that is strict.

Phlizon Newest 600w LED Grow Light FAQ

Here I have replied a listing of the most typical questions relating to this light.

Allow me to know in the comments I will add them and if you have.

Which dimensions of mature tent do I want for this lighting?

There grow A x 3ft kayak will be perfect 

Is your packaging discreet?

Regrettably, no. It's"PHILZON 600w Grow Light" written around it. 

However, it ought to arrive in a Amazon box. Therefore, in the event that you want to be discreet, then we propose opening it.

Phlizon have informed me that they ship in plain brown packaging. I like that they listen to their clients!

How many plants do I develop with this mild?

This mild covers 2.5 sq feet when you are plants are prospering. 

Each plant requires approximately 1 feet of space.

This light should cover around 6 crops ( 2.5sq feet x 2.5sq feet ÷ 1sq ft = 6.25 )

However, we propose developing a max of 4-5 plants to present your flowering plants room to grow strong and large.

What is in the box?

Why (and How) You Should Optimize Your Website for Voice Search

It’s essential that businesses invest in optimizing their sites and apps for the trending tech.

December 5, 2019 8 min read

Opinions expressed by Entrepreneur contributors are their own.

A few years ago, voice search seemed like a far-fetched idea limited to Star Trek and science-fiction movies, but today, its use as a digital-marketing tool has become so common that, according to Google, it’s the fastest-growing form of online search. So what does this trend mean to marketers, and why should business owners focus on building voice search-optimized websites? Let’s see. 

The Rise of Voice Search By the Numbers

Voice search basically allows users to say their queries out loud rather than typing them into the search box to get the results. The speech-recognition technology precisely understands what users are saying and then delivers the best-matching results orally. Reports estimate that about 41 percent of adults perform at least one voice search every day. According to ComScore, 50 percent of total searches will be voice searches by 2020. 

Let’s check out some of the critical voice search statistics:

61 percent of 25-64-year-olds and 57 percent of 18-24-year-olds say they’ll use voice search more actively in future, per PwC Research.

Almost one-third of 3.5 billion searches performed on Google every day are voice searches, according to TheeDesign Research.

More than 30 percent of web browsing will be done without a screen by 2020, reveals Gartner.

55 percent of households will own smart speaker devices by 2022, surmises OC&C Strategy Consultants.

More than 53 percent of smart speaker owners say that it feels natural talking to smart devices, shares Google.

Well, stats don’t lie. It is quite clear that consumers are getting more and more familiar with voice search and using it for day-to-day online searches, with Google Now, Alexa from Amazon, Siri from Apple and Cortana from Microsoft standing out as the major trendsetters in the voice search.  

Related: Voice Search: Your New SEO Secret Weapon?

Voice Search Can Impact Your Website’s Ranking

Voice search improves user experience by delivering faster and more accurate search results at convenience. This is the main reason why Google has started really emphasizing voice search optimization. Although the search engine giant hasn’t officially confirmed it yet, it’s just a matter of time until Google adds voice search to their algorithm and starts prioritizing websites that incorporate the voice technology.

The primary goal of SEO is to rank a website for specific search terms so that users can get the best information as fast as possible. However, you need to understand that voice search SEO and conventional SEO are quite different. Users who perform voice searches typically want to complete a particular action, such as playing a song, finding a restaurant or finding information on a specific subject. When people use voice search on mobile, Google will only deliver one top result known as “position zero,” “featured snippet” or “answer box.”

Reports estimate that half of the searches will be voice searches, meaning 50 percent of your potential customers won’t be able to see your website even if you’re ranking in the third or fourth position. The solution here is to rank for number one and secure position zero. (Pro Tip: Google tends to favor websites that provide interactive web tools such as BMI calculators, recipe guides and price estimators. If you’re an enterprise business, you can develop an interactive web app for your corporate website to increase your chances of hitting the answer box.)

Here’s how to secure position zero so your website appears in voice search results.

1. Implement structured data.

Structured data, or schema markup, is one of the ranking factors used by Google’s search algorithm to determine the relevancy and position of a page in the search results. It also gives you more control over how you provide specific blocks of information to search engines and how machines interpret it. Implementing structured data doesn’t guarantee top ranking, but it gives you a competitive advantage for sure.

How do you implement structured data? If you’re using WordPress, search for “schema” plugins, and you’ll see hundreds that enable structured data functionality. You can also implement structured data manually on your website using specific schemas from the schema.org library.

2. Improve page speed.

You might find this tip in almost every SEO guide out there. Page speed is one of the most significant ranking factors. If you want to rank for position zero, you need to ensure that your website loads quickly. People use voice search to get faster results; thus, Google gives high importance to page speed when it comes to voice search. 

Use Google’s PageSpeed Insights tool to check your website’s loading time. The best thing about this tool is that it gives numerous suggestions on how to improve the page speed. Make sure you minify HTML & CSS, prioritize visible content, optimize images, remove unwanted theme elements and plugins, enable data compression and implement browser caching.

One way to drastically increase your mobile website speed is by implementing an AMP (Accelerated Mobile Pages) feature. It helps your mobile pages to load instantly by pulling only a few necessary blocks of content.

3. Understand the user’s search intent.

You need to understand whether people are looking to buy something or want some information when they type in a search query. User intent is often clearly expressed in queries using words such as “price,” “buy,” “download,” “how-to,” “what is” and so on. Other times, the intent is not clearly expressed at all. But thanks to the Hummingbird update, Google can now find out the context behind a search query and then deliver the best matching results. 

For example, when a user searches for “Oscar winners,” he/she is most likely interested in the latest award ceremony, not the one that happened 10 years back. Google understands this context and ranks the websites that provide information about the most recent award ceremony and news from the latest Oscars. 

So how do you write and optimize your content around user intent? Ask yourself the following questions: 

Do you provide the most accurate and immediate answer?

Is the answer structured in a proper format? 

Is the content on your website easily accessible by Google?

Is your website credible enough?

If you work towards the outcome of the above questions, it might help you increase your chances of getting into the answer box for specific search terms.

Related: Should You Worry About Voice Search?

4. Target long-tail keywords.

Long-tail keywords are quite specific in nature. As the name suggests, these are the search terms and phrases that are longer than a typical search query. People act like they’re talking to real humans when they perform a voice search. They’ll naturally ask longer questions rather than short keywords. For example, while typing a search query, a person might use highly relevant words and enter something like “best pizza in NYC.” Whereas to perform the same search using voice, a person might ask: “Hey Siri (or Ok Google), where can I eat the best pizza?” Therefore, it’s important to find out and use the conversational search terms that people would use while speaking. You need to treat these terms as the long-tail keywords and incorporate them into your content. You can use tools like Answer the Public or KeywordTool.io to find out long-tail search terms and questions. 

A fun fact is that 70 percent of all search queries are long-tail, yet the majority of the sites tend to overlook these keywords while chasing shorter and more competitive search terms. Long-tail keywords are less competitive, yet they are equally important. Again, make sure you answer the searcher’s question as accurate and direct as possible. You can create H2 or H3 headings of the questions (long-tail search terms) and provide answers in the body text.

To Wrap Up….

Kay County, Oklahoma - Wikipedia

County in the United States

Kay County is a county located in the U.S. state of Oklahoma. As of the 2010 census, the population was 46,562.[1] Its county seat is Newkirk,[2] and the largest city is Ponca City.

Kay County comprises the Ponca City, OK Micropolitan Statistical Area. It is in north central Oklahoma on the Kansas state line.

Before statehood, Kay County was formed from the “Cherokee Strip” or “Cherokee Outlet” and originally designated as county “K.” Its name means simply that.[3][4] Kay County is the only county to keep its same name as the Oklahoma area moved from a territory to a state.

History

After the Civil War, the Cherokee Nation had to allow the Federal Government to relocate other Native American tribes to settle in the area known as the Cherokee Outlet, The Kansa (Kaw) arrived in June 1873, settling in what would become the northeastern part of Kay County. The Ponca followed in 1877. The Nez Perce came from the Pacific Northwest in 1879, but remained only until 1885, when they returned to their earlier homeland. Their assigned land in Oklahoma was then occupied by the Tonkawa and Lipan Apache people.[3]

The Chilocco Indian Agricultural School, north of Newkirk, was a boarding school for Indians that operated from 1884 to 1980. Its enrollment peaked at 1,300 in the 1950s and its graduates include members of 126 Indian tribes. The distinguished old buildings of the school were constructed of local limestone.[5]

In 2010, the Keystone-Cushing Pipeline (Phase II) was constructed north to south through Kay County to Cushing in Payne County.

Geography

According to the U.S. Census Bureau, the county has a total area of 945 square miles (2,450 km2), of which 920 square miles (2,400 km2) is land and 25 square miles (65 km2) (2.7%) is water.[6] The highest point in Kay County, Oklahoma, is west of North Sage Lane (36′56″12°N, 96′53″40°W), at 1,310 feet (400 m) above sea level. The lowest point is 891 feet (272 m) where the Arkansas River leaves the county.[7]

The northern boundary is the border with Kansas and its eastern boundary is with Osage County. Kaw Lake, a large reservoir on the Arkansas River completed in 1975 includes most of the water area of the country. East of Kaw Lake and the Arkansas River is the region called the Osage Hills or The Osage, a tall-grass prairie region of large livestock, mostly cattle, ranches. West of the Arkansas River the land is flatter and a mixture of cultivated lands and livestock ranches. Principal rivers flowing through the county are the Chikaskia River, the Arkansas River and the Salt Fork of the Arkansas River.[3]

Life expectancy

Of 3,142 counties in the United States in 2013, Kay County County ranked 2,619 in the average life expectancy at birth of male residents and 2,642 in the life expectancy of female residents, both among the lowest 25 percent of all U.S. counties. Males in Kay County lived an average of 72.5 years and females lived an average of 77.7 years compared to the national average for life expectancy of 76.5 for males and 81.2 for females.

In the 1985-2013 period, the average life expectancy in Kay County for females declined by 0.8 years while male longevity increased by 2.0 years. Compared to the national average for the same period of an increased life expectancy of 5.5 years for men and 3.1 years for women, Kay county ranked in the worst performing 10 percent of all counties. High rates of smoking and obesity for both sexes and a low level of physical activity for males appear to be contributing factors to the relatively short life expectancy.[14]

(Taxes in Early Retirement) [Editor’s Note: This is a republished post from Physician on FIRE, a member of The White Coat Investor Network. The original post ran here, but if you missed it the first time, it’s new to you! It’s a discussion of just how much lower your taxes can be in early retirement compared to your peak earnings years. Enjoy!] The Taxman Leaveth: Taxes in Early Retirement During our years of wealth accumulation, a.k.a. working, we pay a pretty penny in taxes. We become accustomed to knowing that after a certain point, we might only see about half of each additional dollar earned. Adding up federal & state income tax and property taxes, many physicians will have annual tax bills exceeding $100,000. If you’ve managed to accumulate a sizable nest egg over 20 years or less, you’ve no doubt contributed at least $1 million to the coffers of the taxman. Fear not. Much, much lower tax rates are on the horizon for the aspiring early retiree. Let’s crunch some numbers and examine what you might expect to pay when you hang up the stethoscope for the last time. Take the example of someone like Dr. Benson who was on track to retire with $3 million in about 20 years with $120,000 in annual spending. As you’ll see below, he ended up with $3.3 million. Will he require $120,000 a year in retirement? Of course not. He paid off his $36,000 a year mortgage, he’s no longer contributing to a 529, and his children are off on their own. To maintain the lifestyle he and his wife have enjoyed, his spending will be closer to $70,000. Since they expect to travel more, let’s give them $80,000 a year for a comfortable retirement. This represents a super-safe 2.4% withdrawal rate. With $100,000 in annual spending, the withdrawal rate would still be a paltry 3%. They can expect to watch their nest egg grow most years in retirement with this level of spending. Taking a look at how Dr. B arrived here in his early fifties, we see that he wisely has his nest egg spread out among different account types. He maxed out his tax-deferred savings, while contributing to personal and spousal backdoor Roth IRAs. His HSA has grown nicely, and more than a third of his nest egg is in a taxable account. Allow me to display this saving and compounding in a handy little spreadsheet. I do like spreadsheets. We’re assuming 4% real (inflation adjusted) returns, so spending power is preserved. For the taxable account, I accounted for a half percent tax drag*, so that account has returned 3.5%. *This tax drag assumes a portfolio of passive index funds with 2% qualified dividends taxed at 25%. The tax on qualified dividends could be as low as 15% if you have no state tax and keep AGI under $250,000, avoiding the 3.8% medicare surcharge. In that best case scenario, the Bensons could have had a 3.7% real return on their taxable account in the working years. The Bensons, having paid a little over $1 million in federal income tax alone, don’t want to pay that anymore. Like, not at all. Zero. Zilch. Can we get them $80,000 to spend without incurring federal income tax? Sure. Why not aim for $100,000? Plugging some reasonable numbers into Intuit’s TaxCaster using 2015 tax rates gives us the following results. In this example, the Bensons get their spending money from the following sources: They receive $1000 in interest from the emergency account where they keep ready cash. They set up the 457(b) to deliver $1500 a month, or $18,000 for the year. Since they know that they can remove Roth contributions without penalty, they plan on taking out $11,000 a year for the next 20 years. They sold $48,000 worth of index funds which had doubled in value, creating $24,000 in capital gains. Their $1.1 million dollar taxable fund distributed $22,000 in qualified dividends. They owe $0 in federal income tax. In fact, with only $44,400 in taxable income, they could have had a much higher taxable income and still paid no income tax. This could be considered a wasted opportunity. Nice going, Bensons. Way to go. Maximizing the Tax-Free Income How much more capital gains could they have taken without owing federal income tax? The Bensons sold a whopping $109,000 worth of mutual funds that had doubled. Their cost basis being $54,500 meant a long-term capital gain of $54,500. Still no tax. Why? If you have a taxable income of $74,900 or less in 2015, your long-term capital gains and qualified dividends have a 0% tax rate. If you get lazy or goof up and end up with $75,000 in taxable income, don’t worry, you haven’t fallen off a cliff. You won’t owe 15% on all of your capital gains and qualified dividends, you’ll just owe on the portion that exceeds the limit. If you exceed the limit by $100, you owe $15 in taxes. Kids In College In the first two examples, we assumed the kids were long gone. Not in college, not dependents. But what it that weren’t the case? What if they were in college, considered dependents, and the Bensons paid $4000 out of pocket towards their education? The American Opportunity Tax Credit (available to married couples with MAGI under $160,000) will match the first $2000 paid toward tuition with a $2000 tax credit (that’s free money, folks) and provide an additional $500 credit for the next $2000. In this case, the Bensons can take a lot more from the 457(b) or do some Roth conversions from the 401(k), provided it is rolled over to a traditional IRA first. Rather than increasing the 457(b) withdrawal, they could have maintained it at $18,000 and converted $32,000 of traditional IRA (previously 401(k)) money to a Roth IRA. What is the advantage of doing this? Reducing required mandatory distributions (RMDs) which will be enforced at age 70.5, thereby avoiding future taxable income. Kids at Home What if the Bensons still had children in junior high when they retired? Say Hello to the child tax credit of $1000 per child. The children must live at home, be under 17 years of age, and taxable income (MAGI) must remain below $110,000 for the married joint filers. Easy enough. The child tax credit only applies to taxes due, so the Bensons either took more from the 457(b) or did some Roth conversions in December to get their “taxes due” as close to $2000 as possible. Since you most likely will not have the ability to adjust your 457(b) income on an annual basis, it is probably best to use Roth conversions to keep taxable income flexible during early retirement. Note that in two of these examples, the Bensons had spending money exceeding 4% of their nest egg of $3.3 million (= $132,000). It might be OK for them to do so in a year with good market returns, particularly if they are planning on using a variable withdrawal strategy. The point of this exercise is not to show much they can spend each year without depleting their nest egg, it is to show how much money can be made available without paying federal income tax in early retirement. The Bottom Line The take home lessons from this exercise are many: You can live well without paying federal income tax in an early retirement scenario. It’s important to diversify your retirement dollars among different account types, some of which have already been taxed (Roth, taxable account). Roth contributions can be withdrawn without penalty at any age. Growth cannot. Keep track of contributions if you think you might want to access the account prior to age 59.5. Keeping taxable income in the 15% bracket makes your long-term capital gains (on equities purchased at least a year ago) and qualified dividends tax free. Retiring while your kids are at home or in college will allow you to take advantage of tax credits that are generally not be available to working physicians; they are phased out due to high income. We didn’t touch the 401(k) other than for the sake of making Roth conversions. If you feel you will need to access this money before age 59.5, there are a couple ways. One is to retire in the year in which you turn 55 (or 56 – 59). By law, you should have immediate access. Before that age, you can rollover to an IRA and set up Substantial Equal Periodic Payments (SEPP) to access the money without penalty. If you plan well and have monies in other accounts, you probably won’t be touching this money until at least 59.5 or perhaps 70.5 when RMDs become mandatory. Social Security never entered the discussion. Again, if you planned like the Bensons, you’re not relying on it and might delay collecting until age 70 to get the maximum dollar benefit. If you live in a state with an income tax, expect to pay a few thousand dollars a year in the above scenarios. Tax-Rates.org has a tax calculator that includes state taxes for every state. You will not be paying FICA taxes if you have no earned income as was the case with the Bensons. There is a net worth above which avoiding federal income tax is no longer possible. You know, Mo Money Mo Problems. It depends on how your dollars are distributed. If you’ve got that much, which I estimate is north of $5 million, paying taxes should be no problem at all. There is also an age at which it becomes unavoidable (70 due to RMDs) unless you’ve managed to convert most or all tax deferred dollars into Roth (or spent it all). What is the take-home message for you? Do these analyses make you more or less likely to consider an early retirement? How likely is it that the tax code will remain largely intact by the time you will be ready? Comment below! http://ift.tt/2qH1K3j

Solar eclipse thrills world's northern tier (AP) The top of the world got a sunrise special Thursday—a “ring of fire” solar eclipse. This so-called annular eclipse began at the Canadian province of Ontario, then swept across Greenland, the North Pole and finally Siberia, as the moon passed directly in front of the sun. An annular eclipse occurs when a new moon is around its farthest point from us and appearing smaller, and so it doesn’t completely blot out the sun when it’s dead center. The upper portions of North America, Europe and Asia enjoyed a partial eclipse, at least where the skies were clear. At those locations, the moon appeared to take a bite out of the sun. It was the first eclipse of the sun visible from North America since August 2017, when a dramatic total solar eclipse crisscrossed the U.S. The next one is coming up in 2024. A total lunar eclipse graced the skies two weeks ago.

Canada takes cautious first step toward lifting border restrictions (Reuters) Canada on Wednesday took a cautious first step toward easing COVID-19 border restrictions, saying it was prepared to relax quarantine protocols for fully vaccinated citizens returning home starting in early July. Canada’s air and land borders have allowed for only essential travel since March of last year, and Canadians coming home are currently required to quarantine for 14 days. If they arrive by air, they also must stay in a designated hotel until they receive a negative COVID-19 test. “The first step ... is to allow fully vaccinated individuals currently permitted to enter Canada to do so without the requirement to stay in government-authorized accommodation,” Health Minister Patty Hajdu told reporters on Wednesday. The easing of restrictions will hinge on COVID-19 case numbers and vaccinations, she said.

Another jump in prices tightens the squeeze on US consumers (AP) American consumers absorbed another surge in prices in May—a 0.6% increase over April and 5% over the past year, the biggest 12-month inflation spike since 2008. The May rise in consumer prices that the Labor Department reported Thursday reflected a range of goods and services now in growing demand as people increasingly shop, travel, dine out and attend entertainment events in a rapidly reopening economy. The increased consumer appetite is bumping up against a shortage of components, from lumber and steel to chemicals and semiconductors, that supply such key products as autos and computer equipment, all of which has forced up prices. And as consumers increasingly venture away from home, demand has spread from manufactured goods to services—airline fares, for example, along with restaurant meals and hotel prices—raising inflation in those areas, too.

US deaths from heart disease and diabetes climbed amid COVID (AP) The U.S. saw remarkable increases in the death rates for heart disease, diabetes and some other common killers in 2020, and experts believe a big reason may be that many people with dangerous symptoms made the lethal mistake of staying away from the hospital for fear of catching the coronavirus. The death rates—posted online this week by federal health authorities—add to the growing body of evidence that the number of lives lost directly or indirectly to the coronavirus in the U.S. is far greater than the officially reported COVID-19 death toll of nearly 600,000 in 2020-21. For months now, researchers have known that 2020 was the deadliest year in U.S. history, primarily because of COVID-19. But the data released this week showed the biggest increases in the death rates for heart disease and diabetes in at least 20 years.

After a Year of Protests, Portland Is Ready to Move On. But Where? (NYT) Defund the police? City leaders in Portland tried it—and then defunded the alternative. Portland, the Oregon city of bridges, bike lanes and left-leaning idealists—beloved, abhorred and caricatured in just about equal measure—is wrestling mightily with the question of what it means to make a city safe. Violent crime, especially homicide, has spiked in most urban areas during the pandemic, and many police departments are facing new scrutiny about training and bias since the murder of George Floyd in Minneapolis a year ago. But here in the nation’s 25th-largest metropolitan area, with about 2.5 million people, there is an additional factor that ripples through every public policy choice. A hardened core of street activists, many of them professing opposition to authority in general, has dug in and shows no signs of going away. (Portland’s mayor, Ted Wheeler, has asked people to stop calling them protesters, but rather what they call themselves: anarchists.) Their numbers are now down to perhaps 25 to 75 on any given night. But they have shown themselves at times to be violent—one was charged with attempted murder after a Molotov cocktail was thrown at the police—destructive of property and highly adaptable, using social media tools and other strategies to divert the police from the targets they select.

Texas becoming a green energy powerhouse (Bloomberg) Forthcoming wind, solar and battery storage projects in the state of Texas are worth an estimated $20 to $25 billion, with the Lone Star State—typically the home turf for oil and gas—emerging as a powerhouse for green energy. Right now, 15 gigawatts of clean power are under construction or in advance development, which is on par with the entire electrical capacity of Finland in 2019. Last year, Texas installed 3.3 gigawatts of utility-scale solar and 3.5 gigawatts of wind, and this year they’re projected to install twice that amount of solar and 4.2 gigawatts of new wind.

Peru’s election (Foreign Policy) Socialist schoolteacher Pedro Castillo appears to have won Peru’s hotly contested presidential election, maintaining a 0.4 percent lead over Keiko Fujimori with 99.8 percent of votes counted. Speaking late on Tuesday night, Castillo implored his supporters to “not react to provocation” after Fujimori baselessly made claims of election fraud. Castillo said he had spoken with business leaders following his apparent victory, a group who had roundly backed Fujimori in the election. “We will form a government that is respectful of democracy, and of the current constitution. We will build a government of financial and economic stability,” Castillo said.

EU lawmakers OK virus pass, boosting summer travel hopes (AP) European Union lawmakers on Wednesday endorsed a new travel certificate that will allow people to move between European countries without having to quarantine or undergo extra coronavirus tests, paving the way for the pass to start in time for summer. The widely awaited certificate is aimed at saving Europe’s travel industry and prime tourist sites from another disastrous vacation season. Key travel destinations like Greece have led the drive to have the certificate, which will have both paper and digital forms, rapidly introduced. Several EU countries have already begun using the system, including Bulgaria, Croatia, the Czech Republic, Denmark, Germany, Greece and Poland. Right now, traveling in the EU’s 27 nations is a trial for tourists and airlines alike. Countries have various COVID-19 traffic-light systems, where those in green are considered safe and those in red to be avoided. But each nation is applying different rules and standards, making travel confusing for all.

Russian court outlaws opposition leader Navalny’s groups (AP) A Moscow court on Wednesday night outlawed the organizations founded by Russian opposition leader Alexei Navalny by labeling them extremist, the latest move in a campaign by authorities to silence dissent and bar Kremlin critics from running for parliament in September. The Moscow City Court’s ruling, effective immediately, prevents people associated with Navalny’s Foundation for Fighting Corruption and his sprawling network of regional offices across Russia from seeking public office. Many of Navalny’s allies had hoped to run for parliamentary seats in the Sept. 19 election. The extremism label also carries lengthy prison terms for activists who have worked with the organizations, anyone who donated to them, and even those who simply shared the groups’ materials.

Building collapse kills 11 after monsoon flooding in Mumbai (AP) A dilapidated building collapsed following heavy rains in the western Indian city of Mumbai, killing at least 11 people and injuring seven others, police said Thursday. Heavy monsoon rains during the day Wednesday had flooded several parts of the city that is India’s financial and entertainment capital. Mumbai recorded 222 millimeters (8 inches) of rain in 12 hours Wednesday. Tidal waves that reached up to 4. 6 meters (13 feet) prevented the rainfall from being drained, and roads, rail tracks and neighborhoods were left waterlogged.

Young voter anger over housing, jobs threatens Moon’s legacy in South Korea (Reuters) Outside class hours, Kim Kyung-wook delivers meals on foot to apartment blocks near his university in eastern Seoul, while constantly checking his phone to trade stocks, cryptocurrency and used Nike sneakers. That probably won’t help him land a well-paid job when he graduates later this year, but Kim says such side hustles are a “smarter thing to do” in the face of increasingly bleak job opportunities and an expanding income gap under President Moon Jae-In. Kim is one face of a lost generation that many see emerging as the key voting bloc that could swing next year’s presidential election. Already, he and voters like him helped the main opposition party triumph in April by-elections for mayor of Seoul. The pandemic-induced downturn has fallen especially hard on those in their 20s and 30s. South Korea now has the highest proportion of 25-34 year olds with tertiary degrees among OECD countries. Despite being the most highly educated generation in the country’s history, nearly one in every four Koreans in the 15-29 age group was effectively jobless as of May, far higher than the 13.5% for the rest of the working population.

As Iran prepares to vote, its battered economy a major worry (AP) Almost six years ago, Iranians poured into the streets to celebrate Tehran’s nuclear deal with world powers. They saw it as a chance for the Islamic Republic to re-enter the world economy and create opportunities like purchasing airplanes and selling its oil on the international market. Today, that dream has faded into a daily grinding nightmare of high inflation, an ever-weakening national currency and high unemployment worsened by the coronavirus pandemic. The West considers Iran’s nuclear program and Mideast tensions as the most important issues facing Tehran, but those living in the Islamic Republic repeatedly point to the economy as the major issue facing it ahead of its June 18 presidential election. “One day they said the nuclear deal was accepted, everyone was happy, the dollar rate went down over one day,” said Mohammad Molaei, a 50-year-old commodities trader. “Then things start to happen. Missiles are fired. The nuclear deal is bust. One tears it apart, the other burns it. Only the people lose.” Perhaps nothing illustrates the crisis gripping Iran’s economy as well as the battering of its currency, the rial. In July 2015 amid those raucous nuclear deal celebrations, $1 bought some 32,000 rials. Today, $1 buys 238,000 rials.

Arrests targeting Palestinians in East Jerusalem and across Israel (Washington Post) When Israeli police detained Muna al-Kurd and issued a summons for her twin brother, Muhammad, their millions of followers on social media raised an alarm. The 23-year-olds are at the center of efforts to stop Israeli settlers from evicting tens of Palestinian families from their homes in East Jerusalem’s Sheikh Jarrah neighborhood—clashes over which played a role in sparking the 11-day conflict between Israel and Hamas last month. After less than a day in custody, the two were released Sunday without any charges filed. The sister and brother said the arrests were efforts to silence their activism. They were far from alone. In recent weeks, a campaign of detentions has swept up Palestinians in East Jerusalem and Arab citizens all over Israel, amid an ongoing surge in Palestinian activism and on the heels of the worst communal violence in years. Israeli police have arrested more than 2,100 people and issued 380 indictments against 184 people as part of a campaign that began in May. More than 91 percent of those arrested have been Arab, the Haaretz newspaper reported, citing police sources. Israel’s Arab citizens, many of whom identify as Palestinian, make up about 20 percent of the country’s 9 million citizens. The campaign has added to the grievances of many Arab Israelis, who accuse police of escalating violence against them and resorting to undue force and frequent arrests—while deprioritizing violence by Jewish Israelis.

Property tax hikes sought despite pandemic downturn

The vehicle lights coming and going across Pennybacker Bridge in northwest Austin are lovely in the evening, but the image also illustrates, as photographer Manuel Garza (via Flickr) notes, "the traffic sucks."

I can't speak for all the country's suburbs, but I know mine is pretty sure that our neighborhood will still be around after the coming presidential election even if Joe Biden does move into the White House.

We are, however, a bit concerned about how our continuing life here outside Austin's downtown might be affected by a proposed real estate tax increase that also will be on our Nov. 3 ballot.

City officials are asking all Austinites to approve the tax hike as a way to pay for increased public transit options. The project's total price tag is $7.1 billion. Voters will decide whether higher property taxes will fund $3.85 billion of that amount.

Terrible traffic, but Texas love cars: Despite the Austin area's horrid traffic, voters have not always been receptive to large-scale transportation projects. In 2014, a $1 billion bond proposal to expand the city's light rail system was voted down by a nearly 14 percent margin.

Some argue the opposition is Texans' independent streak and love of being in control while behind the wheel. Others say it's simply a long-standing Lone Star State dislike of taxes. 

Proponents of this latest proposal, dubbed Project Connect, have to convince many of the same voters that rejected the 2014 plan that this bigger transportation measure (and tax) is now worthwhile. They point to congestion in the Texas capital city that is getting worse as it attracts new businesses and residents.

But even that data might not be enough.

COVID-19 tax vote complications: While Austin's transportation project has been in the works for a while, its election timing is problematic.

Many folks heading to the polls in Texas, and across the United States, have taken financial hits due to the coronavirus pandemic.

Renters facing eviction due to COVID-19 job losses have rightly received a lot of attention. But many homeowners also are having trouble paying their mortgages.

Where they've been able to keep their homes, they're not thrilled with the prospect of paying more property taxes on it, regardless of where the money will go. Project Connect would cost the typical Austin homeowner an additional $332 in taxes next year if the measure is approved.

Texas school tax rates hikes, too: Austin is not alone in asking taxpayers for more money during this economic downturn.

At least five large Texas independent school districts (ISDs) also want their voters to approve tax rate changes. Three of the school districts — Arlington, Garland and Fort Worth ISDs — are in the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex, with Houston-area Pearland ISD and Northwest ISD in San Antonio also seeking tax rate changes from their voters.

The districts' ballot questions are required under a property tax increase law that took effect this year. Local taxing entities must get voter OK for any property tax hike of more than 3.5 percent.

Elsewhere in the U.S.: Property taxes tend to top the list of most-hated taxes. That's why there continues to be grumbling among homeowners about the federal cap on the deductibility of state and local taxes (SALT).

Property taxes are tied to housing values, so it's no surprise that the actual dollar amounts homeowners pay are higher in places where homes sell for more.

That's why the Tax Foundation recently took another look at property taxes, this time focusing on states' effective tax rates on owner-occupied housing. The analysis came up with the average amount of residential property taxes actually paid, expressed as a percentage of home value.

"Some states with high property taxes, like New Hampshire and Texas, rely heavily on them in lieu of other major tax categories," noted Tax Foundation policy analyst Janelle Cammenga. "Others, like New Jersey and Illinois, impose high property taxes alongside high rates in the other major tax categories."

The Washington, D.C.-based tax think tank found that New Jersey has the highest effective rate on owner-occupied property at 2.21 percent. It was followed closely by Illinois at 2.05 percent and New Hampshire at 2.03 percent.

Hawaii is at the other end of the spectrum with the lowest effective rate of 0.30 percent. It is followed closely by Alabama at 0.40 percent, Louisiana at 0.52 percent and Wyoming at 0.55 percent.

The Tax Foundation map below lets you look at how your state compares.

Are your property tax rates holding steady? Or are officials also seeking more money from real estate owners in your county, school district and/or state?

Bitcoin’s Wild 18% SURGE! Trump Gives 2 Trillion More Reasons to Buy Crypto in 2020

VIDEO TRANSCRIPT

Today in crypto, bitcoin has had a wild day surging by 18 percent. Almost touch seventy-three hundred dollars. But will the failure to close above seven thousand dollars bring out the bears? Or are we setting up for a bullish breakout? Another two trillion dollars in spending has been proposed in the United States. Exchanges are seeing a massive influx of new buyers. Capital controls have an inflated. This week in some of the world’s most vulnerable countries, which just serves as a strong reminder of why we need bitcoin so desperately. The latest news from crypto dot com with 2.0 gets a little bit closer. The crypto laugh. This is where the use of a scrap of the hottest and all of the latest happening out there in the wild, wild west of crypto land. By the way, if you are new to crypto, then check out my course. Cryptocurrency explained. It is specifically designed for beginners to allow you to confidently start investing in crypto. It will walk you through all of the basics with practical tutorials and the resources that you need to succeed in crypto investing. There is a link down below where you can learn more. Now let’s go ahead and take a quick look at the charts here to get started off with today. Bitcoin oh, it’s had such an interesting day, it just reminds you of the craziness that Bitcoin is capable of in both directions. Obviously raging from a low of around 60 $100 dollars all the way up to seventy-three hundred dollars before cooling off for a wild 18 percent move on the day. Now, over on the daily charts, we can see that Bitcoin is in an ascending channel right now. Now, today’s big price move actually tested and rejected at the centre line of that channel. Now, we could see a pullback as far as 60, $100 test. The bottom end of that channel, especially if the current price does not hold that the time recorded this video anyway. We’re kind of sitting right around some key support levels. However, the daily is currently forming into an ascending triangle as well, which is likely to break soon. The failure of yesterday’s price, though, to break out and hold above the top line of that triangle at the seven thousand dollar mark. That’s a little bit disappointing. But in the next 48 to 72 hours, we should get the answer about whether or not we’re going to have a definitive breakout above or below this key line. Ascending triangles, of course, are more bullish patterns and tend to break up. But will we suffer from that weekend trading malaise, which will draw us back down and invalidate that triangle? Time will tell. Now a solid candle closes while the seven thousand dollar mark that would definitely bullish in the short term for bitcoin. That’s why I’m hoping we’re going to be seeing playing out here. But let’s just keep an eye on this as the weekend moves forward. Remember, though, we are still six weeks out from the bitcoin, having even though not like who is talking about it is still coming. We could indeed see the speculators come out in force to play both sides of this event, bumping it up and then potentially shorting it back down afterwards. So keep an eye out for that to happen, too. And while the price action the last 24 hours, that’s been a bit of fun. Yeah, absolutely. But fear is still the leading force in the crypto markets. The Bitcoin Fear and greed index is still way down at fourteen mean that we are far from being in the clear when it comes to price safety. So keep that in mind. Next, up, some quick data to share with you. There has been a big surge in new buyers coming into the markets of last week. Not no assured, a few different data points supporting this. We’ve new data points to share with you as well. Crack and release the report. And they said that they saw an 83 percent increase in users over the last couple of weeks. Packs full doubled its signup rate and almost all the exchanges are seeing a heavy bias towards people buying, not selling. The decentralized exchange is also doing well with volumes hitting an all-time high of six hundred and sixty-eight million dollars in the month of March, with volume up a whopping 53 percent since the all-time high in February. Yes, that volume is still less than buying does in just one day, but it is definitely showing that there is really an increasing amount of people who are choosing to do their asset swaps on-chain and without using centralized exchanges. We still have a long way to go. There’s no doubt about that. But this is definitely a good trend and I’m excited to see where it is going now. A big thank you to crypto dot com for sponsoring today’s episode. So here is the latest news from crypto dot com that you need to know for the next three months. That hemo crypto dot com is doing their bit to help with the crisis by offering free credit card purchases of crypto on their app. So they’re going to be waiving their usual 3.5 percent fee and replacing with a zero percent fee. So a great opportunity to get zero percent fee buys. Also, as part of this overall offering, they’re gonna be doing 10 percent crypto back on all grocery purchases and a whopping 20 percent back on food delivery. Now you need to go over and check out the crypto dot com Twitter to see which brands specifically are being supported and what the exact terms are going to be. But this is a very cool move to see from the guys where crypto dot com and by the way, they’re also giving away a hundred thousand dollars worth of bitcoin this month. That is crazy. Got to go over and subscribe to crypto dot com on Twitter. They’re always doing amazing giveaways over there. So you have to follow them, of course, to be in to win. And the next bit of crypto dot com news is that their next syndicate event has been announced. So on April 14th, you will have the chance to be able to buy a theorem at a 25 percent discount. Awesome. By the way, if you don’t have crypto. Debit card, yet then it is time to get on board. You can get up to 5 percent crypto back rewards for every swipe of the card as well as getting free Netflix, free Spotify. Other cool perks like airport lounge access. Plus, if you use the link down below and reserve a ruby red Teir card or higher than you can get a bonus 50 dollars in crypto cards now shipping to the UK, USA, New Zealand, Australia and soon all across the E! You OK? Now onto the first big stories of the day. Another country has just joined the capital control team. Yeah. Capital controls. The best. The best capital controls, man. So this story is about Egypt. So the Central Bank of Egypt just put the daily limit for individual withdrawals at 10000 Egyptian pounds or around six hundred thirty-five dollars from your local bank. And you’re only allowed to take five thousand pounds or a little more than three hundred dollars out of an A.T.M. Well, these are definitely not the strictest capital controls that I’ve seen over the last couple of years. They are still pretty tight. Capital controls, just another day of banks telling you when and where you are allowed to access your money. But it’s the bank’s money now, and they’ll tell you when you have a little sliver of it. And another story about capital controls. This is also out of the Middle East from Lebanon, where banks have now halted all dollar withdrawals. So the previous $100 U.S. limit has been reduced to zero. So the Lebanese are now trapped in their failing fiat. It is their only option. Bitcoin, Bitcoin, Bitcoin. Look, Bitcoin may not fix everything, but bitcoin definitely fixes these issues. But you must be prepared. Don’t wait until you’re standing in line at a bank waiting for six hours for them to give you a scrap of bread from the fat cat bankers table. You have to be ready for this to happen. Capital controls. They are not some faraway thing that only happens to other people. They can happen to anyone, anywhere, at any time. And those with bitcoin, when that happens, will be in a league of their own. And as this crisis continues to unfold, people living in the West, they may be in for a rude awakening one of these days. I hope not. But very, very possible. And in other Bitcoin news, GitHub has announced that they will be burying bitcoin code inside an Arctic mountain to ride out the next 1000 years. That’s pretty cool. I like that. That’s a cool story. It’s not just Bitcoin either, but it includes Bitcoin among a lot of other really important open-source code. We also have other cryptocurrencies in there amongst a lot of other stuff like the area and even Dogecoin made the cuts less kind of cool. Maybe if our society collapses and we enter, you know, a total apocalypse kind of event, then archaeologists, they’ll find out about bitcoin in a few thousand years. Bitcoin will live on bitcoin to the moon in the year 3000 after the apocalypse and DOJ going Oh dogecoin is only worshipped like a god. One Doge equals one doge. One Doge equals one doge. Okay, now let’s move on to some theory news. If 2.0’s phase zero multi-client tests net will likely go live in April, at least according to Retallack, the eith 2.0 specifications they have just undergone a major audit by technology security firm Liste Authority. Now the firm did highlight the protocols peer to peer messaging system and the block proposers system as two areas that do have potential security vulnerabilities. Obviously, this is why test nets are so important. So you can get these things ordered. You can run these things in the wild without risking billions of dollars with the value. The test nets are going to be an incredibly important step in moving us towards the future of a theorem in an ETHE 2.0. It’s coming. It’s coming. It’s gonna be massive when it hits, but good things do take time. And finally, the big news of the day. Are two trillion dollars in spending. I can’t even keep track of it at this point. So crazy. 6.2 trillion over there for the stimulus package, 2.5 trillion over there for the IMF, a couple hundred billion over there. Who is keeping track anyway? Probably going to be a lot, lot more. And know these figures, they’re not going to be the end of this. We’re gonna see trillions more before this crisis over because this crisis is really just starting to get big. I hope it doesn’t go that way, but it’s looking like it’s only a Trump proposes a huge new spend of two trillion dollars that will be in the form of an infrastructure bill to rebuild the overly aged American infrastructure, of course, to create a load of jobs along with that. Now, got two things to say about this. One is, yes, thumbs up. The U.S. definitely needs to upgrade the roads, bridges, airports, all of that stuff. So this is actually a good thing to see the government spending money on this important infrastructure. This definitely needs to be done. But on the flip side, how does this actually get funded? Well, one of two ways. That’s could be another two trillion dollars in debt on top of nearly 24 trillion dollars in existing debt. There already is. I mean, hey, why not just make it twenty-six trillion? It’s all funny money anyway. This kind of debt in the service of that debt. It’s crazy. It won’t be long until we see interest payments on the debt in the United States actually exceed the revenue of the government. That’ll be a crazy situation. And the other option for funding a two trillion-dollar infrastructure bill, just print more money. Why not just printed? It is the answer to all of the problems. Just print that money, baby. Either way, this bill gets funded. It will have a negative effect on the dollar, either by inflation or by increasing debt. Remember, there is no ceiling for the price of bitcoin because there is no bottom to the burning pit of Fiat. And look, a jobs stimulus bill for infrastructure, it’s probably really, really gonna be needed, by the way, because the USA has got to do something to bail them out at this point because the unemployment numbers, they just keep rolling in. And it looks really, really bad. It’s not just the USA. Lots of places all over the world, but the US. Wow, this is crazy. In the last two weeks, nine points nine, five million people. Have filed for unemployment in the U.S. A. These are unprecedented numbers. This is a SU normy of just financial Armageddon. We’ve only had the first couple of waves come in. There are more destructive waves at the back of the tsunami still coming. And we have to keep it real here, too. There is no way that this unemployment crisis, that it will not be hammering the stock markets in the months to come. There is still a lot of room for lots and lots of pain in the markets. And as far as the crypto markets are concerned, well, what have they shown us over the last month? They have shown that when the traditional markets move, then so do the crypto markets, so even though we have had a rather good day for Bitcoin today, stay frosty out there, everyone, because we could be in for a lot more turmoil in the markets. But anyway, those are just my two. Cito, she’s your question for today. Do you think that it’s a good idea for the U.S. to spend another two trillion dollars to rebuild their infrastructure? And if so. Well, is it better to go into debt? Is it better to print new money? Is it better to raise taxes? Let me know what you think about it down below in the comments section. I hope you’re having an awesome day out there wherever you are in the world, they have some cool plans for the weekends go on a Friday here over in New Zealand. So excited for a weekend of staying at home in the house. Again. But, hey, that’s what we got going on right now, but I hope you guys stay staying safe. Stay home. Have fun. Learn stuff, all those good things. Anyway, hope you enjoyed today’s video. Hit the thumbs up button. If you did, remember to subscribe to the channel. If you are new around here, long live the blockchain. And peace out the next time.

Capital controls, just another day of banks telling you when and where you are allowed to access your money. But it’s the bank’s money now, and they’ll tell you when you have a little sliver of it. And another story about capital controls. This is also out of the Middle East from Lebanon, where banks have now halted all dollar withdrawals. So the previous $100 U.S. limit has been reduced to zero. So the Lebanese are now trapped in their failing fiat. It is their only option. Bitcoin, Bitcoin, Bitcoin. Look, Bitcoin may not fix everything, but bitcoin definitely fixes these issues. But you must be prepared. Don’t wait until you’re standing in line at a bank waiting for six hours for them to give you a scrap of bread from the fat cat bankers table. You have to be ready for this to happen. Capital controls. They are not some faraway thing that only happens to other people. They can happen to anyone, anywhere, at any time. And those with bitcoin, when that happens, will be in a league of their own. And as this crisis continues to unfold, people living in the West, they may be in for a rude awakening one of these days. I hope not. But very, very possible. And in other Bitcoin news, GitHub has announced that they will be burying bitcoin code inside an Arctic mountain to ride out the next 1000 years. That’s pretty cool. I like that. That’s a cool story. It’s not just Bitcoin either, but it includes Bitcoin among a lot of other really important open-source code. We also have other cryptocurrencies in there amongst a lot of other stuff like the area and even Dogecoin made the cuts less kind of cool. Maybe if our society collapses and we enter, you know, a total apocalypse kind of event, then archaeologists, they’ll find out about bitcoin in a few thousand years. Bitcoin will live on bitcoin to the moon in the year 3000 after the apocalypse and DOJ going Oh dogecoin is only worshipped like a god. One Doge equals one doge. One Doge equals one doge. Okay, now let’s move on to some theory news. If 2.0’s phase zero multi-client tests net will likely go live in April, at least according to Retallack, the eith 2.0 specifications they have just undergone a major audit by technology security firm Liste Authority. Now the firm did highlight the protocols peer to peer messaging system and the block proposers system as two areas that do have potential security vulnerabilities. Obviously, this is why test nets are so important. So you can get these things ordered. You can run these things in the wild without risking billions of dollars with the value. The test nets are going to be an incredibly important step in moving us towards the future of a theorem in an ETHE 2.0. It’s coming. It’s coming. It’s gonna be massive when it hits, but good things do take time. And finally, the big news of the day. Are two trillion dollars in spending. I can’t even keep track of it at this point. So crazy. 6.2 trillion over there for the stimulus package, 2.5 trillion over there for the IMF, a couple hundred billion over there. Who is keeping track anyway? Probably going to be a lot, lot more. And know these figures, they’re not going to be the end of this. We’re gonna see trillions more before this crisis over because this crisis is really just starting to get big. I hope it doesn’t go that way, but it’s looking like it’s only a Trump proposes a huge new spend of two trillion dollars that will be in the form of an infrastructure bill to rebuild the overly aged American infrastructure, of course, to create a load of jobs along with that. Now, got two things to say about this. One is, yes, thumbs up. The U.S. definitely needs to upgrade the roads, bridges, airports, all of that stuff. So this is actually a good thing to see the government spending money on this important infrastructure. This definitely needs to be done. But on the flip side, how does this actually get funded? Well, one of two ways. That’s could be another two trillion dollars in debt on top of nearly 24 trillion dollars in existing debt. There already is. I mean, hey, why not just make it twenty-six trillion? It’s all funny money anyway. This kind of debt in the service of that debt. It’s crazy. It won’t be long until we see interest payments on the debt in the United States actually exceed the revenue of the government. That’ll be a crazy situation. And the other option for funding a two trillion-dollar infrastructure bill, just print more money. Why not just printed? It is the answer to all of the problems. Just print that money, baby. Either way, this bill gets funded. It will have a negative effect on the dollar, either by inflation or by increasing debt. Remember, there is no ceiling for the price of bitcoin because there is no bottom to the burning pit of Fiat. And look, a jobs stimulus bill for infrastructure, it’s probably really, really gonna be needed, by the way, because the USA has got to do something to bail them out at this point because the unemployment numbers, they just keep rolling in. And it looks really, really bad. It’s not just the USA. Lots of places all over the world, but the US. Wow, this is crazy. In the last two weeks, nine points nine, five million people. Have filed for unemployment in the U.S. A. These are unprecedented numbers. This is a SU normy of just financial Armageddon. We’ve only had the first couple of waves come in. There are more destructive waves at the back of the tsunami still coming. And we have to keep it real here, too. There is no way that this unemployment crisis, that it will not be hammering the stock markets in the months to come. There is still a lot of room for lots and lots of pain in the markets. And as far as the crypto markets are concerned, well, what have they shown us over the last month? They have shown that when the traditional markets move, then so do the crypto markets, so even though we have had a rather good day for Bitcoin today, stay frosty out there, everyone, because we could be in for a lot more turmoil in the markets. But anyway, those are just my two. Cito, she’s your question for today. Do you think that it’s a good idea for the U.S. to spend another two trillion dollars to rebuild their infrastructure? And if so. Well, is it better to go into debt? Is it better to print new money? Is it better to raise taxes? Let me know what you think about it down below in the comments section. I hope you’re having an awesome day out there wherever you are in the world, they have some cool plans for the weekends go on a Friday here over in New Zealand. So excited for a weekend of staying at home in the house. Again. But, hey, that’s what we got going on right now, but I hope you guys stay staying safe. Stay home. Have fun. Learn stuff, all those good things. Anyway, hope you enjoyed today’s video. Hit the thumbs up button. If you did, remember to subscribe to the channel. If you are new around here, long live the blockchain. And peace out the next time.

Bitcoins Wild 18% SURGE! Trump Gives 2 Trillion More Reasons to Buy Crypto in 2020

VIDEO TRANSCRIPT

Today in crypto, bitcoin has had a wild day surging by 18 percent. Almost touch seventy-three hundred dollars. But will the failure to close above seven thousand dollars bring out the bears? Or are we setting up for a bullish breakout? Another two trillion dollars in spending has been proposed in the United States. Exchanges are seeing a massive influx of new buyers. Capital controls have an inflated. This week in some of the world’s most vulnerable countries, which just serves as a strong reminder of why we need bitcoin so desperately. The latest news from crypto dot com with 2.0 gets a little bit closer. The crypto laugh. This is where the use of a scrap of the hottest and all of the latest happening out there in the wild, wild west of crypto land. By the way, if you are new to crypto, then check out my course. Cryptocurrency explained. It is specifically designed for beginners to allow you to confidently start investing in crypto. It will walk you through all of the basics with practical tutorials and the resources that you need to succeed in crypto investing. There is a link down below where you can learn more. Now let’s go ahead and take a quick look at the charts here to get started off with today. Bitcoin oh, it’s had such an interesting day, it just reminds you of the craziness that Bitcoin is capable of in both directions. Obviously raging from a low of around 60 $100 dollars all the way up to seventy-three hundred dollars before cooling off for a wild 18 percent move on the day. Now, over on the daily charts, we can see that Bitcoin is in an ascending channel right now. Now, today’s big price move actually tested and rejected at the centre line of that channel. Now, we could see a pullback as far as 60, $100 test. The bottom end of that channel, especially if the current price does not hold that the time recorded this video anyway. We’re kind of sitting right around some key support levels. However, the daily is currently forming into an ascending triangle as well, which is likely to break soon. The failure of yesterday’s price, though, to break out and hold above the top line of that triangle at the seven thousand dollar mark. That’s a little bit disappointing. But in the next 48 to 72 hours, we should get the answer about whether or not we’re going to have a definitive breakout above or below this key line. Ascending triangles, of course, are more bullish patterns and tend to break up. But will we suffer from that weekend trading malaise, which will draw us back down and invalidate that triangle? Time will tell. Now a solid candle closes while the seven thousand dollar mark that would definitely bullish in the short term for bitcoin. That’s why I’m hoping we’re going to be seeing playing out here. But let’s just keep an eye on this as the weekend moves forward. Remember, though, we are still six weeks out from the bitcoin, having even though not like who is talking about it is still coming. We could indeed see the speculators come out in force to play both sides of this event, bumping it up and then potentially shorting it back down afterwards. So keep an eye out for that to happen, too. And while the price action the last 24 hours, that’s been a bit of fun. Yeah, absolutely. But fear is still the leading force in the crypto markets. The Bitcoin Fear and greed index is still way down at fourteen mean that we are far from being in the clear when it comes to price safety. So keep that in mind. Next, up, some quick data to share with you. There has been a big surge in new buyers coming into the markets of last week. Not no assured, a few different data points supporting this. We’ve new data points to share with you as well. Crack and release the report. And they said that they saw an 83 percent increase in users over the last couple of weeks. Packs full doubled its signup rate and almost all the exchanges are seeing a heavy bias towards people buying, not selling. The decentralized exchange is also doing well with volumes hitting an all-time high of six hundred and sixty-eight million dollars in the month of March, with volume up a whopping 53 percent since the all-time high in February. Yes, that volume is still less than buying does in just one day, but it is definitely showing that there is really an increasing amount of people who are choosing to do their asset swaps on-chain and without using centralized exchanges. We still have a long way to go. There’s no doubt about that. But this is definitely a good trend and I’m excited to see where it is going now. A big thank you to crypto dot com for sponsoring today’s episode. So here is the latest news from crypto dot com that you need to know for the next three months. That hemo crypto dot com is doing their bit to help with the crisis by offering free credit card purchases of crypto on their app. So they’re going to be waiving their usual 3.5 percent fee and replacing with a zero percent fee. So a great opportunity to get zero percent fee buys. Also, as part of this overall offering, they’re gonna be doing 10 percent crypto back on all grocery purchases and a whopping 20 percent back on food delivery. Now you need to go over and check out the crypto dot com Twitter to see which brands specifically are being supported and what the exact terms are going to be. But this is a very cool move to see from the guys where crypto dot com and by the way, they’re also giving away a hundred thousand dollars worth of bitcoin this month. That is crazy. Got to go over and subscribe to crypto dot com on Twitter. They’re always doing amazing giveaways over there. So you have to follow them, of course, to be in to win. And the next bit of crypto dot com news is that their next syndicate event has been announced. So on April 14th, you will have the chance to be able to buy a theorem at a 25 percent discount. Awesome. By the way, if you don’t have crypto. Debit card, yet then it is time to get on board. You can get up to 5 percent crypto back rewards for every swipe of the card as well as getting free Netflix, free Spotify. Other cool perks like airport lounge access. Plus, if you use the link down below and reserve a ruby red Teir card or higher than you can get a bonus 50 dollars in crypto cards now shipping to the UK, USA, New Zealand, Australia and soon all across the E! You OK? Now onto the first big stories of the day. Another country has just joined the capital control team. Yeah. Capital controls. The best. The best capital controls, man. So this story is about Egypt. So the Central Bank of Egypt just put the daily limit for individual withdrawals at 10000 Egyptian pounds or around six hundred thirty-five dollars from your local bank. And you’re only allowed to take five thousand pounds or a little more than three hundred dollars out of an A.T.M. Well, these are definitely not the strictest capital controls that I’ve seen over the last couple of years. They are still pretty tight. Capital controls, just another day of banks telling you when and where you are allowed to access your money. But it’s the bank’s money now, and they’ll tell you when you have a little sliver of it. And another story about capital controls. This is also out of the Middle East from Lebanon, where banks have now halted all dollar withdrawals. So the previous $100 U.S. limit has been reduced to zero. So the Lebanese are now trapped in their failing fiat. It is their only option. Bitcoin, Bitcoin, Bitcoin. Look, Bitcoin may not fix everything, but bitcoin definitely fixes these issues. But you must be prepared. Don’t wait until you’re standing in line at a bank waiting for six hours for them to give you a scrap of bread from the fat cat bankers table. You have to be ready for this to happen. Capital controls. They are not some faraway thing that only happens to other people. They can happen to anyone, anywhere, at any time. And those with bitcoin, when that happens, will be in a league of their own. And as this crisis continues to unfold, people living in the West, they may be in for a rude awakening one of these days. I hope not. But very, very possible. And in other Bitcoin news, GitHub has announced that they will be burying bitcoin code inside an Arctic mountain to ride out the next 1000 years. That’s pretty cool. I like that. That’s a cool story. It’s not just Bitcoin either, but it includes Bitcoin among a lot of other really important open-source code. We also have other cryptocurrencies in there amongst a lot of other stuff like the area and even Dogecoin made the cuts less kind of cool. Maybe if our society collapses and we enter, you know, a total apocalypse kind of event, then archaeologists, they’ll find out about bitcoin in a few thousand years. Bitcoin will live on bitcoin to the moon in the year 3000 after the apocalypse and DOJ going Oh dogecoin is only worshipped like a god. One Doge equals one doge. One Doge equals one doge. Okay, now let’s move on to some theory news.

Bitcoin’s Wild 18% SURGE! Trump Gives 2 Trillion More Reasons to Buy Crypto in 2020

VIDEO TRANSCRIPT

Today in crypto, bitcoin has had a wild day surging by 18 percent. Almost touch seventy-three hundred dollars. But will the failure to close above seven thousand dollars bring out the bears? Or are we setting up for a bullish breakout? Another two trillion dollars in spending has been proposed in the United States. Exchanges are seeing a massive influx of new buyers.

Don’t wait until you’re standing in line at a bank waiting for six hours for them to give you a scrap of bread from the fat cat bankers table. You have to be ready for this to happen. Capital controls. They are not some faraway thing that only happens to other people. They can happen to anyone, anywhere, at any time. And those with bitcoin, when that happens, will be in a league of their own. And as this crisis continues to unfold, people living in the West, they may be in for a rude awakening one of these days. I hope not. But very, very possible. And in other Bitcoin news, GitHub has announced that they will be burying bitcoin code inside an Arctic mountain to ride out the next 1000 years. That’s pretty cool. I like that. That’s a cool story. It’s not just Bitcoin either, but it includes Bitcoin among a lot of other really important open-source code. We also have other cryptocurrencies in there amongst a lot of other stuff like the area and even Dogecoin made the cuts less kind of cool. Maybe if our society collapses and we enter, you know, a total apocalypse kind of event, then archaeologists, they’ll find out about bitcoin in a few thousand years. Bitcoin will live on bitcoin to the moon in the year 3000 after the apocalypse and DOJ going Oh dogecoin is only worshipped like a god. One Doge equals one doge. One Doge equals one doge. Okay, now let’s move on to some theory news. If 2.0’s phase zero multi-client tests net will likely go live in April, at least according to Retallack, the eith 2.0 specifications they have just undergone a major audit by technology security firm Liste Authority. Now the firm did highlight the protocols peer to peer messaging system and the block proposers system as two areas that do have potential security vulnerabilities. Obviously, this is why test nets are so important. So you can get these things ordered. You can run these things in the wild without risking billions of dollars with the value. The test nets are going to be an incredibly important step in moving us towards the future of a theorem in an ETHE 2.0. It’s coming. It’s coming. It’s gonna be massive when it hits, but good things do take time. And finally, the big news of the day. Are two trillion dollars in spending. I can’t even keep track of it at this point. So crazy. 6.2 trillion over there for the stimulus package, 2.5 trillion over there for the IMF, a couple hundred billion over there. Who is keeping track anyway? Probably going to be a lot, lot more. And know these figures, they’re not going to be the end of this. We’re gonna see trillions more before this crisis over because this crisis is really just starting to get big. I hope it doesn’t go that way, but it’s looking like it’s only a Trump proposes a huge new spend of two trillion dollars that will be in the form of an infrastructure bill to rebuild the overly aged American infrastructure, of course, to create a load of jobs along with that. Now, got two things to say about this. One is, yes, thumbs up. The U.S. definitely needs to upgrade the roads, bridges, airports, all of that stuff. So this is actually a good thing to see the government spending money on this important infrastructure. This definitely needs to be done. But on the flip side, how does this actually get funded? Well, one of two ways. That’s could be another two trillion dollars in debt on top of nearly 24 trillion dollars in existing debt. There already is. I mean, hey, why not just make it twenty-six trillion? It’s all funny money anyway. This kind of debt in the service of that debt. It’s crazy. It won’t be long until we see interest payments on the debt in the United States actually exceed the revenue of the government. That’ll be a crazy situation. And the other option for funding a two trillion-dollar infrastructure bill, just print more money. Why not just printed? It is the answer to all of the problems. Just print that money, baby. Either way, this bill gets funded. It will have a negative effect on the dollar, either by inflation or by increasing debt. Remember, there is no ceiling for the price of bitcoin because there is no bottom to the burning pit of Fiat. And look, a jobs stimulus bill for infrastructure, it’s probably really, really gonna be needed, by the way, because the USA has got to do something to bail them out at this point because the unemployment numbers, they just keep rolling in. And it looks really, really bad. It’s not just the USA. Lots of places all over the world, but the US. Wow, this is crazy. In the last two weeks, nine points nine, five million people. Have filed for unemployment in the U.S. A. These are unprecedented numbers. This is a SU normy of just financial Armageddon. We’ve only had the first couple of waves come in. There are more destructive waves at the back of the tsunami still coming. And we have to keep it real here, too. There is no way that this unemployment crisis, that it will not be hammering the stock markets in the months to come. There is still a lot of room for lots and lots of pain in the markets. And as far as the crypto markets are concerned, well, what have they shown us over the last month? They have shown that when the traditional markets move, then so do the crypto markets, so even though we have had a rather good day for Bitcoin today, stay frosty out there, everyone, because we could be in for a lot more turmoil in the markets. But anyway, those are just my two. Cito, she’s your question for today. Do you think that it’s a good idea for the U.S. to spend another two trillion dollars to rebuild their infrastructure? And if so. Well, is it better to go into debt? Is it better to print new money? Is it better to raise taxes? Let me know what you think about it down below in the comments section. I hope you’re having an awesome day out there wherever you are in the world, they have some cool plans for the weekends go on a Friday here over in New Zealand. So excited for a weekend of staying at home in the house. Again. But, hey, that’s what we got going on right now, but I hope you guys stay staying safe. Stay home. Have fun.
