Its almost two months since the Grenfell fire but many of those who survived are still living in temporary accommodation both out of choice and because of a dire shortage of social housing in Kensington. There is one development where many of the former Grenfell residents are due to be…

These days you’d have an easier job sword-fighting The Mountain than you would getting any secrets out of the Game of Thrones actors. In the early days they were apt to let a few things slip here and there, but now there’s so much attention on them — and they’ve clearly had so much media training — that it’s damn near impossible. SEE ALSO: We ran ‘Game of Thrones’ characters through Amazon’s facial recognition software Maisie Williams is one very slight exception. In the past she’s been known t.  show all text

Eisenhower’s stellar advice for how to make decisions

http://ift.tt/eA8V8J

Dwight D. Eisenhower served as the US Army general and the 34th president of the United States. The author of “Art of Manliness,” Brett McKay shares some insights of how the former president set his priorities when making decisions. The following is a transcript of the video.

Often times throughout a day, we end up focusing on tasks that seem important but they’re just urgent.

General Eisenhower, he’s the guy that head up the D-Day invasion. Also the president of the United States. He was faced with just constant decisions throughout his military career and also as his career as president. He had this saying “We often confuse the urgent with the important, the important with the urgent.

From that, people have derived this thing called the Eisenhower decision Matrix which helps you figure out what is really really important and what’s just merely urgent. So, there’s this grid that you come up with, and there are some things that are important but not urgent, some things that are not important but urgent. The goal with this is to focus on what’s important and not urgent. What are the tasks that are most important that will provide you the most return on investment?

Often times throughout a day, we end up focusing on tasks that seem important but they’re just urgent. Emails to answer, phone calls to take, meetings that seem important but aren’t important, they’re just meetings you don’t get anything done out of it. So, instead of focusing on those not important but urgent tasks spend more time on the important stuff — the things you know it’s going to advance a project forward, advance your life forward. As you do that you’re going to find a lot more done in life.

Fxwirepro: Loonie Upside capped by 200- 4h Ma, Good to Sell on Rallies  

http://ift.tt/eA8V8J

              

  • USD/CAD continuing its losing streak for the third consecutive week. The pair made a low of 1.33876 and slightly recovered from that level on account of highly volatile crude oil. Short-term trend is slightly bullish as long as resistance 1.3550 (200 4H EMA) holds. It is currently trading around 1.3450.
     
  • WTI Crude oil shown a huge decline almost $4 as OPEC cuts seems to be ineffective. The commodity took support near 50% fibo and slight weakness can be seen only below that level.
      
  • USD/CAD major short term resistance is around 1.3550 (200 4H MA) and any break above confirms minor bullishness, a jump till 1.3595 likely.
     
  •  On the lower side, loonie major support is around 1.3380 and any break below confirms that jump from 1.2964 comes to an end at 1.37935 and dip till 1.3285 (200- day MA)/1.3220 likely.
     
  • The near term resistance is around 1.3550 (200- 4H MA) and any break above will take the pair till 1.3577 (89- 4H MA)/ 1.3640 (support turned into resistance). Any close above 1.3838 (61.8% fibo) confirms bullish continuation.

It is good to sell on rallies around 1.3460-1.3465 with SL around 1.3550 for the TP of 1.3410/1.3290.
