Election Year In America; About Time

Thank god is an election year.  I think this has been the longest 7years of America’s life.  I think that the current rule over the United States has taken us so far backwards as a nation that it will takes years to recover.  The current administration seems only to focus on big business and oil.  Our relations with other countries couldn’t be weaker.  We are in a time when the economy is falling apart and the only real winner today is the oil companies who continue to report record quarterly profits.  I have never been affiliated with a political party, however the current times make me sick to think of ever calling myself a republican.  I think I will continue to be non-affiliated but pray that a republican never gets the opportunity to lead our country again.

GBP/JPY

In the Forex market this has got to be one of the most tempting trading pairs alive.  Its not uncommon at all a couple hundred pip swing in a day, sometimes within minutes.  It is a very volatile pair which cause massive price fluctuations on a daily basis.  One thing to remember though, with the heavy swings in this pair and possibility to make huge profits, is the risk of huge losses as well.  I would recommend this currency pair to the most seasoned Forex trader.   With what little time I have been trading Forex, I have had many successful trades with pairs like EUR/USD, AUD/USD, GBP, USD, but usually every trade on the GBP/JPY was a loosing trade.  There are many annalist that publish daily tips on this pair as well.  I tried following the daily tips of the pros and still found it hard to keep up with this fast moving pair.  Enjoy the opportunity the Forex market offers, but use caution when picking your trading pairs.

Is Cox Communications Wasteful?

Ok, so I have to wonder just how much cheaper could my cable bill be if I didn’t receive Cox Communications offers for digital telephone 3 times a week?  Over the past few months we receive these constantly, and I mean constantly.  All different kinds of cards, flyers, and coupons offering special rates for the first three months.  I wish they would give it up, traditional landline phones are a thing of the past and they are dedicating so much money and resources (like trees) to send me these damn advertisements.  And who is really drawn in by the special rate for the first three months stuff anyway?  Wow three months, lets do it!  Stop sending me these things and make my cable rates cheaper!  Im back to make one addition to this article; Cox’s Internet service is the best.  Download speeds are incredible.  Thank you for that!

Ebay Changes Feedback Policy

One thing that has been the same with Ebay lately is change. And while most poeple don’t like change, it is sometimes good. But I must admit that I think Ebay is making a terrible mistake with the feedback policy change. In case you haven’t heard by now, basically the change to the policy removes ability to leave transaction feedback for people who buy from me. My Ebay store was run very well, all items were as described and I shipped the items the day people paid for them. I used the United States Post Office Priority Mail so the items arrived very fast.

One change that was done in the past was a 5-point scale buyers filled out for sellers. Mine was really good except for the shipping, people bitched that it took to long to receive their items. What more could I possibly do to get it there any faster? I think people knowing that they wont receive reciprocal negative feedback is going to have them bitching and leaving negative feedback about the smallest things and uncontrollable things.To many power sellers with thousands of feedback already it wont seem to sting as bad. But with mine only in the hundreds, and still at 100%, it will be so easy for a lot of hard work to go down the drain. I ask that Ebay reconsider this policy change and protect the sellers!
