Smaller Things
From the Blog ummeyusufWith our temperatures rapidly climbing and the weather turing unusually hot for this time of the year, I have quite lost the will to work on my cardigan. Instead, I did reorganisation of my yarn stash and decided to knit up some cotton yarns to free up some space. Two potholders and two dischcloths later, I had managed to use an equivalent of only two balls of yarn. The potholders are crocheted while the dishcloths are knit. Anyway, the potholders are pretty awesome and performing very well in the kitchen. The dishcloths have not been used as of now, but I can foresee their use in the near future. I am already looking for some other small knitting or crochet project. Any ideas? pakistanblogs.blogspot.comRead Full Post

Entirely to my detriment, the man was quite in his cups and also knew someone in Germany in the leather business. He gave me his friend's name and address and for the rest of the evening pestered me to contact him ASAP so that his friend could get first-class leather.

Understanding CMO CDO and CDS. Big Short Case Study – Part III – Finance Training Course
From the Blog faisalkhan When I first saw the movie, The Big Short, I fell in love with it. Not because it was a great movie, but because there was this one scene in the movie, about the trio going to Miami to do field research, which was the turning point in the movie. The field research resonated with me and that is why I loved the movie. Shifting gears, it was a pleasant surprise when I came across Jawwad Farid's post on the movie and understanding the complex financial products as outlined in the movie.
