Kingdom Diversity - Bagged Lunch Series - February 7, 2019 - American Slavery: Understanding the Effects in 2019
One of the adverse effects of the existing economic crisis is that business funding has actually become tough to obtain. A couple of years back, company credit was flowing and companies might go shopping from bank to bank trying to find the best terms. Nowadays, even business that have solid financial declarations are having issues getting a service loan. This situation is not likely to change for the foreseeable future as lots of lending institutions have capitalization issues and won’t have the ability to lend much till these problems are fixed.
Because of this, numerous companies that require organisation financing will need to find an option – or do without. One alternative that has been acquiring popularity is invoice financing. American Prudential Capital is the one that you should look for.
Invoice factoring is developed to resolve the capital problem that are generated when clients pay their invoices in 30 to 60 days. While extending Thirty Days payment terms is common for commercial customers, lots of small and mid-sized business can’t afford to wait that long to be paid. They have a variety of expenses that need instant handling, such as provider payments, payroll and rent. Factoring billings can lower the days impressive on billings substantially, putting your company on a strong financial footing.
The mechanics on invoice factoring service are fairly simple. Once the work or item for an invoice is delivered, you sell the billing to an intermediary company called a factoring business. The factoring business examines the business credit of the company paying the billing (your customer), and if acceptable, buys the billing from you at a small discount. This offers a fast source of funding that can be used to cover functional expenditures and grow the business.
A lot of factoring deals are structured with two payments. The very first payment, called the advance, is for about 80% of the billing amount. The 2nd payment, which is for the 20% reserve (less charges), is rebated once the invoices is actually paid completely.
The greatest benefit of factoring is that it’s simple to obtain. The majority of small and medium sized business can get it Business Management, supplied they have strong clients and no encumbrances on their assets. This makes invoice factoring an ideal solution for companies that can not pay for to wait 30 to 60 days to obtain paid by their customers.

In the Mela, Ramawtar from Shikshantar shares some of the dialogical books and posters which Shikshantar publishes and well as some coconut jewelry out of waste. Lots of questions came up throughout the workshop around the theme of: What is the 'Local?' What does it mean to value and strengthen the 'Local?' What are the threats to the 'Local?' Can the 'Local' co-exist alongside the Global? How can the 'Local' challenge/transform the Global?
Bibracte, on Mont Beuvray in Burgundy (Morvan region, France), is one of the most important archaeological sites for understanding Late Iron Age (La Tène) Celtic urbanism in Europe and the transition to the Roman period. Bitracte was the capital of the powerful Aedui (Éduens), a Gallic people allied with Rome for much of the 2nd and early 1st centuries BC. Julius Caesar described it in *De Bello Gallico* as “by far the largest and richest town of the Aedui.” Founded toward the end of the 2nd century BC, the *oppidum* (fortified town) covered roughly 135 hectares within its main *murus gallicus* rampart (with an earlier outer circuit enclosing up to about 200 ha). It housed an estimated 5,000–10,000 inhabitants at its peak in the 1st century BC.
The site was largely abandoned within a few decades of the Roman conquest in favor of the new lowland city of Augustodunum (Autun). Rediscovered and systematically excavated from the mid-19th century onward (with major modern programs since the 1980s under French and European collaboration), it is exceptionally well-preserved under forest cover. It is protected as a historic monument and classified site, holds the “Grand Site de France” label, and hosts a museum of Celtic civilization plus a European archaeological research center. Ongoing excavations continue to refine understanding of Late Iron Age society, craft production, and the dynamics of Romanization. Bibracte is a foundational site for Celtic archaeology: a major political, economic, and cultural capital that bridges the independent Gallic world and the early Roman provinces of Gaul.
I visited the site on the morning of August 26, 2026, during a two-day trip from Lyon with my Leica M-A camera (see below the details about it and the lens used). My Leica was loaded with an Ilford FP4+ black-and-white film that I exposed for 64 ISO to compensate the yellow filter (screw-on E46 B+W 022 Yellow 495 MRC) used for all the film views. The Summilux lens was protected with a Haoge rectangular shade hood LH-B46P black. Expositions were metered using a Minolta Autometer III fitted with a 10° viewfinder for selective metering.

Sur le chemin du retour: halte au Temple "dit de Janus" *** à Autun, August 26, 2026
Chemin Jeanne Barret
71400 Autun
France
_________________
*** **The so-called “Temple of Janus” in Autun** (Saône-et-Loire, France) is a Romano-Celtic *fanum* located at the site of La Genetoye, outside the walls of the ancient city of *Augustodunum*, about 400 m northwest of the town.
The site has been occupied since Neolithic times. A Gallic sanctuary existed there from the 3rd–2nd centuries BCE (timber and earth architecture), well before the foundation of the Roman city. This early religious presence may have influenced the choice of Autun as the new capital of the Aedui during the Augustan period.
The large masonry temple (nearly square *cella* measuring roughly 16.5–17 m on each side and over 20–24 m high, surrounded by a peripheral gallery) was built in the second half of the 1st century or the very beginning of the 2nd century CE. It formed part of a vast peri-urban sanctuary that also included a theatre (Haut-du-Verger) and baths. The deity worshipped there remains unknown: the attribution to Janus is a 16th-century error arising from a misinterpretation of the place-name “Genetoye” (a place planted with broom). An offering found on the site mentions the indigenous deity “Ienieco.”
Abandoned at the beginning of the Early Middle Ages (use attested into the 3rd–4th centuries), the *cella* was later reused in the Middle Ages as a fortified tower, which helped preserve it. Listed as a historic monument as early as 1840, it still retains two impressive standing walls. Recent excavations (2012–2019) have clarified its history and the full extent of the complex.

After the last view #37 exposed, the film was rewound to the taking cartridge and revealed in a Posso tank with 350 mL of Adox Adonal developer (identical to the original Agfa Rodinal in its formula of 1891) prepared at the dilution 1+25. The film was processed as proposed by Rollei for 8min30 at 21°C (equivalent to 9min at 20°C)
The frames were then digitized using a Sony A7 camera (ILCE-7, 24MP) adapted to a macro Minolta Auto Bellow III with Minolta Bellow MD Macro lens 1:3.5 f=50mm and the dedicated slide duplicator Minolta. The light source was a LED panel (approx. 4x5') CineStill Cine-lite.
The RAW files obtained were inverted within the latest version of Adobe Lightroom Classic (version 15.5.1 of July 2026) and edited to the final jpeg pictures without intermediate file. They are presented either as print files with frame or the full size JPEG's together with some documentary smartphone color pictures.
About the camera :
On February 3, 2026, I took my partly delivered order of January, 2026, at the Leica Boutique, Place Bellecour, Lyon, France. I did this order between two short stays at
Hospital Edouard Herriot to have surgeries. It helped me a lot during these medical sessions to take an external source of distraction, not focused on the surgery moment upsetting necessities.
My project was initially based on the still existing film Leica M camera’s production maintained active today in Wetzlar, Germany. Leica Camera AG offers today for sale 3 film camera’s available in different finishes. These are the Leica M6, Leica M-P and Leica M-A on the margin of a very diverse range of digital Leica camera’s. The M-P and M-A are produced since 2014 and are likely the closest camera’s to the original first Leica M3 in (1954-1966). It is possible that Leica maintained their M film camera’sjust to sustain their iconic heritage in the history of the company.
The Leica M survived a time in the 1970-1980’s due to a modified production (Leica M4-2 then M6) by the Leitz Canada branch that closed in 1990. The Leica M6 was then again produced in Germany followed by the Leica M7. The further versions of Leica M8 to M11 today are digital camera’s.
I own in my camera collection since April 2024, a venerable standing Leica M3 year 1956 that is now, in 2026, 70-year old and in perfect optical and mechanical condition with a single and well matched Summicron 2/5cm. The camera is equipped as shown in the first commercial brochure of the Leica M3 in 1954 (standard lens, bag, shade hood). In general, when practicing photography, it is sometime safe to have a « backup » camera of the same type to be still operant in case of one camera failure. I was then amused to backup my Leica M3 by one of these brand-new produced Leica M.
The Leica M-A is the closest to my M3. It is purely mechanical camera, without any electrical on electronic circuitries. Intentionally, the Leica M-A has resurrected some of the Leica M3 and Leica M2 (1958-1967) features as the metal advance lever, frame counter, engraving, rewind button, and of course their exact shape and dimensions. The front top cover is designed like the M2 with flat optical windows.
The complex range-finder combined to a framed viewer, including an automatic parallax compensation existed in different versions. The viewer of the Leica M3 was however never been mounted on other Leica M than the M3’s . The 0.91 magnification and its design made for focales 5, 9 and 13.5cm was modified on the Leica M-2 to enlarge the direct use of the viewer to the wide angle 35mm lenses to prise of a smaller magnification. The Leica M-A has o 0.72 magnification capable to display the 28mm frames. As a consequence the Leica M-A is more oriented to a common use of 28 and 35mm lenses.
I choose finally to order a M-A in the chrome silver finish with engraving resembling to the M3/M2 camera’s with a lens Summilux 1.4/35mm « Classic » that based on the original lens of 60’s, It was a formidable gift !. Ordering was however not so simple. At first, I was told that the Leica M-A production would be discontinued in Wetzlar … Arguing that the camera is still offered for sale of the on-line French website, I finally got an available box in stock in Wetzlar that was shipped straight to Lyon in 4-5 days. The lens was more slow to get and arrived within 5 weeks.
I could first enjoy the pleasure of comparing in hands my 1956 Leica M3 and my 2026 Leica-M-A. The 70-year old Summicron 2/5cm (branded at this time « Ernst Leitz Wetzlar » fits smoothly and exactly to the M-A and the 50mm frame is automatically selected. The range-finder operates accurately. There is something fantastic to see the two camera side to side separated by 70 years. Installed in the vintage ever-ready leather bag I prepared for the Leica M-A, it is quite hard to detect at a first look that the M-A is a new camera.
The viewfinder is even more bright and contrasted due to an extensive AR-coating of all optical elements. The shutter has similar, but still a bit different, those strange little noises that occurs on the M3 for the slow speeds, but essentially the two camera’s are indeed and undoubtly Leica’s M ! The grandfather and the grandson are so ressemblant.
About the lens :
After the delivery of my Leica M-A camera body the week before, I had the second part of my order on February 10, 2026, at the Leica Boutique, Place Bellecour, Lyon, France. I did this order in early January 2026, between two short stays at Hospital Edouard Herriot to have surgeries. It helped me a lot during these medical sessions to take an external source of distraction, not focused on the surgery moment upsetting necessities.
My brand-new 2026 Leica M-A (produced since 2014 by Leica Camera AG, Wetzlar, Germany) has the mixed technical features of the original Leica M3 (1954-1966) and Leica M2 (1958-1967). In particular the viewfinder system of the today M-A is inherited of the Leica M2 with a 0.72 magnification that allows the direct view field of a 35mm focal length. On the M3 , with its specific 0.91 magnification viewer, the use of 35mm lenses requires an external optical viewfinder or external optical correction of the built-in viewfinder. As a consequence the M3 appears optimal for the focal of 5, 9 and 13.5cm while the M2 appears more wide-angle lens oriented. The viewfinder of he M-A allows additionally also the framing of 28mm lens.
My idea was then to equip my M-A of a brand-new companion Leica 35mm lens of the current Leica production. The choice felt on the re-edition of an iconic 35mm Leica lens of the 60’s : a Summilux 1.4/35mm that first introduced to the market in 1961 as the first f/1.4 aperture 35mm lens.. This lens was as a modified double Gauss formula keeping the lens compact and not too heavy. The lens was soon highly reputed, especially in the photojournalism domain.
The « Steel Rim » describes a stainless steel ring mounted on the lens front to hold the shade hood. When looking at the optical scheme the modern version of the lens is not exactly the same but Leica keeper the major characteristic with a special softness at wide aperture 1.4 to 2.8 that miked the success of the lens at the time.
Receiving of a brand-new Leica lens is a not so common moment. The lens was packaged in Wetzlar on January 16, 2026 and delivered to the Leica boutique, Place Bellecour, Lyon, France on February, 10, 2026 where I took the precious package. We opened the boxes in the shop and had a good discussion staring at the jewel. When picking-up the lens I did not had my M-A body with me but we tried the mount on another second-hand M-A.
The lens is delivered by default with two shade hoods and rear/front ens caps. The replica of the original lens hood fits, clip-on , to the famous « »stieel rim » but is not curiously usable with filters. The second modern one was designed to be used with the E46 screwed filters. The seller offered for free a Leica UVa II, E46 filter (sliver decor) and a Leica clip-on lens cap E46 to be used with a filter because the default one is a bit too large with a filter on place on the lens. The package includes also a protective Leica black lens pouch, proof certificate and booklet.
Today, Ontario Premier Doug Ford and Manitoba Premier Wab Kinew signed a memorandum of understanding (MOU) to support the removal of barriers to trade between their two provinces. This latest MOU follows the recent signings of MOUs in support of free trade with Nova Scotia and New Brunswick, as well as the recent introduction of the Protect Ontario Through Free Trade Within Canada Act. This act is a nation-leading piece of legislation designed to break down barriers to the free trade of goods and services and the movement of qualified, in-demand workers throughout Canada, to help Ontario and Canada withstand the impact of U.S. tariffs and whatever other challenges may come our way.
