yellow sac spider bit my toe the other night so put some alcool on it

spiders are not good, kill them if you see them. a young mother, without ever having seen a spider, in her cave with her cave husband adam in the garden of eden, with cain and abel sleeping in their cave cribs, if they were watching cave tv together late one cave night and got cave tired and decided to go to bed some five hundred quadrillion to the on tibulionth power by radioactive carbon dating, damn that radioactive stuff was good for something after all, anyway if eve saw a spider she would scream! EEK! a tale as old as time, kill it adam! she is on the look out for small threats and is therefore anxious and on the look out for small threats because she must care for small children. up in the cave corner on their white painted cave walls with ninetey degree angles, a spider in a perfect yellow ghilie suit watches expactantly in a web not meant to catch flies its compact and dense and perfectly comoflages it against the off white cave wall slightly dimmed from the yellow stains of cave cigarettes, the spider itself translucent and sickly yellow, if you got real close and stared right at its hunters stand you might not even see it within glaring back, its something to behold these yellow "sack" webs, designed to conseal them from eves watchful eyes, it has eight eyes that watch back not for flies but side eyes to wait for adam and eve to go to cave bed for the cave night , but its two large eyes are aimed at abel, for when the baby falls asleep it will crawl onto his face in the dead of night, when he witnesses its large innocent eyes flickering behind the lids, now its time to feast, this beast has a sperm sack of her own but no flies so shes low in some nutrient perhaps iron, she wants a good meal to ensure their survival, she crawls onto his sleeping face and pierces his cheek below the eye, injecting phenom to numb him but also digest his cheek, just a nibble, and then, but EEEEK, she looks up from the cave tv nervous creature that she is, a spider! and adam kills it, laughing, relieved and happy to perform his cave duty and kill this seemingly small cave threat. cave baby eye infections are no joke, rip cave baby, or hello lazy eye baby, good luck grand cave baby isaac i dont know ,

yellow sac spiders were observed under labratory settings by scientists seemingly intentionally to have crawled onto a sleeping patient and bite them completely unprovoked, not pinched or bothered. when prodded spiders with a bad reputation seem timid, quite afraid themselves for the cameras, we fear them because they are theives and assassins, who creep and lie in wait. invalidating instinct is almost always retarded unless the bible says otherwise, id be laughed out of any college biology department for proposing what i proposed about spiders intentionally feeding, they lack the mouth parts for sucking whatever, suck my complete freakin desregard for allllll that! you had fucking komodo dragons in zoos for FUCKING DECADES claiming they were nonvenomous and their bites to nonvital spots were fatal due to septic shock from their disgusting mouths, but in like the fucking NINETIES a celebrity suffered a bite on the too and even with immediate first response treatment and antibiotics was quite badly maimed from a toe bite (might have actually died) and oh low and behold htere were the venom glands we just didnt look there, one day YOULL SEE, ILL BE VIDICATED! YOU WILL SEE

Written in 1997 by well-known bond fund manager Bill Gross of Pimco, this book is 1/4 biography, 1/4 tutorial, and 1/2 prediction. The basic premise is that the superbull trend in the stock market is over and that investment returns will be lower going forward. He refers to these post-bull markets as the "era of 6%". He claims that things won't be a good as they were, but they will still be OK.

Gross' hypothesis is based on a combination of factors, specifically: high debt levels, stagnant wages, and unfavorable demographics. These factors will result in tepid GDP growth that will lead to an era of low inflation and an investment environment where bonds will have a advantage over stocks. He recommends giving a heavier weighting to bonds in your portfolio and to keep maturities long.

He uses a very simple, but useful, model for predicting expected returns. For stocks, the formula for total return is "expected earnings growth + current dividend yield". He arrives at an 8% expected return for stocks. John Bogle also uses a model like this. For bonds, the formula for total return is "coupon + expected capital appreciation". He assumes that the bond market will be stable going forward, so the capital appreciation will be about 0%. When you add the 6% coupon, you arrive at the expected 6% total return for bonds.

Since his book is promoting bonds, he gives some quick introductory tutorials about how bonds work. He lists the types of bond risk (default risk, interest rate risk, liquidity risk) and the returns on the different types of bonds (Treasury, muni, corporate, junk, emerging market, mortgage, inflation-indexed bonds). He also educates the reader about how "bond market vigilantes" keep the bond markets in order. Here are a few useful quotes from the book:

"In the last few years, market behavior has become a lot more anticipatory." "It's fortuitous sometimes to be an outsider on the inside." "Financial assets benefit more from the transition to lower inflation than from the actual lower inflation itself." When talking about how volatility affects option valuation models, he says, "Because of market noise…the short-term volatility of price will be greater than the short-term volatility of value."… Money managers who use short-term volatility estimates for longer-term option valuation are systematically overvaluing option prices. Most of the optionable characteristics of bonds (corporate calls, mortgage prepayments, and selected futures contracts) are longer-term in nature but appear to be priced on ten-and ninetey-day volatility histories.

"Okay, sure. But I will note now that I didn't involve in this, so th girls don't hate me when they get old enough to understand"

"That's fine. I'm already expecting them to hate me I mean there girls there is going to be twin teen girls in this house at some point"

"Ohh christ"

"Yeah exactly" 

"I will definitely be having lots of long work trips during that time"

"Coward"

"Hell yeah"

"Look at my sweet little baby girls." Y/n smiled sitting in the car showing the girls on there car seat dressed in like dresses, 

"They look cute?" Thomas asked as he drove 

"They look adorable"

"Ready for ice cream?"

"Ice cream dates" she smiled "it has been so long since we went on an ice cream date Thomas"

"Uuuuuhhh"

"You getting exposed"

"I am. I do uhh I do not believe we have ever had an ice cream date"

"We are married with two children?"

"We don't go out for ice cream often"

"We don't date often"

"What does that say about us?"

"I don't know"

"Do you think you don't take me on dates because you don't love me much or do you not take me on dates because your in your thirties?"

"No, no I love you very much, it's definitely the fact I'm in my thirties"

When I talk about the mid-century vogue for choral music in American synagogues, I often use Max Janowski as an example, largely because I used to live two blocks away from Janowski’s synagogue.  But Samuel Adler, who’s ninetey-two years old, is still composing gorgeous choral music to this day, even though the fashion has moved on from big synagogue choirs.  Adler is the son of the Oberkantor from Mannheim, Germany, and moved to the US with his family when he was about ten or eleven.  (This was in 1939, and yes, they were noping out of Germany ahead of the Nazis.)  They settled in Worcester, Massachusetts, and Adler was conducting the synagogue choir at age thirteen, and composing for it when he was fifteen.  He’s kept on composing and leading choirs ever since.

One thing that I truly respect about him is that, as he saw women starting to become cantors in significant numbers, he actively took up composing pieces for choir and female cantor.  This is his “Hashkiveinu” from the late 1970s, which features Cantor Roslyn Barak as one of the soloists.  (Cantor Barak used to be at Temple Emanu-El in San Francisco; before Judy Pinnolis uncovered the legacy of Julie Rosewald, everyone thought that Cantor Barak was Emanu-El’s first-ever woman cantor.)

Besides the inclusion of a female soloist, the other interesting thing about this “Hashkiveinu” is that, unlike a lot of contemporary settings of the prayer, it’s not a lullaby.  Because the context of Hashkiveinu is a request to lie down in peace and wake up in the morning, a lot of composers go with a lullaby-like setting.  Adler chooses to focus on the more active middle part of the prayer, requesting shelter from a selection of misfortunes, including plagues, swords, famines, and sorrow.  All of which are still highly relevant!

[levendigespreeuw]

It is simply too easy to forget this exists until I have use for our laptop. I am doing my damndest to stay at least mildly up to date, lest I find myself falling too far behind, hm? I will say the technological explosion since the nineteen nineteys has really been quite the race to keep up with. Fascinating though!

I have something of a penchant for science myself in case that is not obvious, haha. My name is Otto! A pleasure, Alli. Might I ask whereabouts you’re from?

@levendigespreeuw pspspspspsps... Fellow vamp. I see you.

This soundtrack is so heartfelt, emotional, and beautiful... One of a kind. This was the first song that I’ve ever heard upon the Black Scale official website, when I first discovered the brand during 2014. When I die, I want this music to be played at my funeral. ☯
