The debate "And who are the wights to dominate any man" was started by
Najam1 on
August 18, 2017, 1:31 pm.
19 people are on the agree side of this discussion, while 5 people are on the disagree side.
People are starting to choose their side.
It looks like most of the people in this community are on the agreeing side of this statement.
Drakgo posted 6 arguments, Najam1 posted 7 arguments to the agreers part.
Najam1, Drakgo and 17 visitors agree.
zito and 4 visitors disagree.
There is no"my god",
"your god"!
The only god says no dogs allowed in his house, that means no dogs allowed in.
You can't get away like the Hindu and claim another god allows them in churches.
Najam1, the point I am making is you chose to follow your god, no one made you. Because of free will you are accountable for your own actions. Even if you were to say "the devil made me do it." You are still accountable.
What proof do you have of your leader? And no, scripture is not proof.
that was one weird rambling rant. you really are delusional.
You are just angry that unlike you, my leader is not a human fool who lies and says god doesn't exist in order to murder, handcuff people, imprison them amongst all homosexual sodomites, commit suicide if arrested or fired from a job.
My leader is the one taught men how to make guns, and even set it up so the man who is the weakest coward always flees a one on one showdown, but will fight unarmed or disadvantaged opponents until he dies and goes to hell forever.
you leader is a myth.
My leader is a mighty avenger.
His name is Al Muntaqim
So you choose to serve your creator?
I am the servant of the Almighty King of mankind.
He has payed me a special salary that includes optimal health.
So far, most doctors don't have a clue on how to cure my physical imperfections.
I won't be the slave of the opiates they prescribed though.
Najam1, are you a slave, or are you a free man?
Nobody is a white.
Not even an albino.
Everyone is a human and nobody is a color.
You use colors to define a human due to the fact that you are one of the most heavily cursed of the nonmuslim humans.
Curses can be broken, but not as easily as the spirit of a good man, my dear neighbor.
I'm not justifying the wrongs, I'm saying white people aren't the only ones to do them, not even close. Wight people (do people realise how broad of a statement that is?) have just been the most successful in general at taking over, giving us the unwanted spotlight throughout much of history.
a wight is a spiritual being. Evidence of their existence is proved by people calling themselves whites and accepting being called a white.
A human possessed by a wight is not simply limited to crimes such as rape and murder.
The entire Pandora's box is open.
Najam1, what makes you believe demons are more evil than man?
Ototoxic, you are justifying oppression by skin color or racism. Rape is something Whites are good at since the beginning, is it just?
yeah. at first I thought it might be a language or cultural barrier and I just wasn't understanding what he was saying. but he really believes that demons control men and make them rape people. he's kinda nuts.
It's been a while since I've been on this app, he seems to post a lit of...interesting topics.
no. Najam is referring to magical creatures he believes control people. he may need psychological help.
Who is any man to rule over any man? White people have been doing what every other race has been doing since the beginning of man kind, white people were just more successful than most other races. No race innocent, every race is guilty, we are all human.
Wights are dark demonized spirits who actually don't care what your skin color is before invading.
What do you mean by dominate? Are you referring to oppression or sovereign rule?

Eden Locke offers a calm refuge in the heart of New Town. A world apart from typical, unimaginative serviced apartments in Edinburgh, the boutique aparthotel has been intricately designed to spotlight the building's rich Georgian heritage, while providing all the modern comforts and luxuries of home. Minutes from Edinburgh's tourist hotspots and business destinations (think George Street, Edinburgh Castle, and the EICC), each of the 72 apartments boasts a distinctive, powdery colour palette that is both bold and welcoming, with soft lighting to compliment the natural Scottish light.
Choose from one of the spacious Studios, Eden Studios, Mezzanine Studios, One Bedroom Open Plan Suites, and One Bedroom Suites (complete with a comfy sofa bed).
Our suites are almost double the size of the typical boutique hotel room, with floorspace ranging from 28 sqm to 33 sqm.
Our Suites are generously proportioned to be bigger than your standard hotel room. More comparable to the size of a serviced apartment in Edinburgh, they've been smartly designed to maximize space and make you feel at ease, while providing all the traditional hotel perks and some nice extras – whether your stay is for a weekend, or a few months.
And last but not least...
Hotel rooms have historically been designed to revolve around the bed, which has scientifically been proven to lead to a serious medical condition called 'cabin fever'. Just kidding - but seriously, cabin fever does suck. Let's be honest – it's also not the most conducive setting to invite friends… unless you really are hoping it's not a friend.
Taking a unique approach to serviced apartments in Edinburgh, our studios have been designed to revolve around the sofa, pastel-toned L-Shaped Sofa, where we believe you spend most of your time when you aren't sleeping. Lounge, relax, take a nap, cuddle, watch a box set, read the news or check your feeds on the cosiest and most stylish sofa you have ever experienced.

The Hair Hunt is ON!
Another Bewitched hair hunt is on. For those of you who haven't been to a Bewitched Hunt, it is a bit different than the HOH hunts. It is a mouseover the wall and find the $1 (or on sale if you are looking for discounts) packs of hair.
Each hunt has it pluses -- for me anyway. I think the HOH hunts are more FUN as you are wandering around looking for boxes. The on the wall hunts aren't very movement oriented (wink) but you DO get a lot of hair (from four to zillions of colors in the clearance section) for your Linden. You are allowed (actually encouraged) to shout out your finds for the other hunters. So that is fun. In the Bewitched hunt you get to see what is offered for your dollar and if you KNOW you look really bad in that style, you can simply skip it.
I bought six and kept three. They probably looked great on some other shape of face, just not mine (smile). So for $6 and some time, I ended up with some VERY nice hair in a variety of colors. I am showing you my favorites here. No names; you need to go experience the experience for yourself - LOL.
Shown with BBS (BeBae) Tri Tier Earrings.

Uzbek Finance Ministry, US delegation discuss cooperation areas
12/06/2019 12:55
Tashkent, Uzbekistan (UzDaily.com) - A meeting with the Deputy Assistant Secretary of the Treasury for Technical Assistance Policy Larry Macdonald took place at the Ministry of Finance of Uzbekistan on 11 June, the Ministry of Finance said in a statement.
The US Ambassador to Uzbekistan Daniel Rosenblum, Head of the Tax Advisory Services Program of the Ministry of Finance Bill Remington and other specialists attended the meeting.
At the beginning of the meeting, the Ministry of Finance informed the American side about the implementation of economic reforms in the five priority areas of development of the Republic of Uzbekistan for the period 2019-2021, on liberalization of the economy, ensuring openness and availability of economic data, as well as transparency in the execution of the State budget.
"The US Treasury cooperates with more than 50 countries around the world in providing technical assistance. All countries have their own development strategy, but in none of them have we seen such a sequence in the implementation of economic reforms in such a short time," Mr. Larry Macdonald said.
In the course of the negotiations, the American side proposed, together with experts from the US Treasury Department, to identify priority areas for cooperation in order to effectively use potential technical assistance.
At the end of the meeting, the parties agreed to continue to identify specific areas of cooperation at the expert level during the stay of the US delegation in Uzbekistan.

text: Sorry Matthew to hear about what you are going through. Terrible headaches, some nausea and disorientation are what led to my husband's lumbar puncture. Following it his headaches subsided but he became very incoherent so I cannot shed much light on side effects of Lumbar Punctures. An MRI and the persistence of his Neurologist revealed clots in his venus sinuses for which he continues to receive treatment and is much improved today. Hope you get some answers and relief soon.

A New York Times 2018 Holiday Gift Selection
Shinrin-yoku is the Japanese practice of seeking a deeper connection with nature by spending intentional time surrounded by trees. Commonly referred to as forest bathing, the meditative practice involves all of our senses and has extraordinary effects on health and happiness. In Shinrin Yoku , Yoshifumi Miyazaki explains the science behind forest bathing and explores the many health benefits, including reduced stress, lower blood pressure, improved mood, and increased focus and energy. This useful guide also teaches you how to bring the benefits of the forest into the home through the use of essential oils, cypress baths, flower therapy, and bonsai. Whether you are exploring a city park, a woodland area, or even the trees in your own backyard, Shinrin Yoku will help you detox from the stress of modern life by opening your eyes to the healing power of trees.
Reviews (1)
New York Review of Books Review
THE WORLD FEELS extraordinarily full of woe. Signals of climate peril, affecting everything from the tiniest bees to the tallest trees, are intensifying. Temperatures climb. Polar icecaps melt. Species crash. Where to turn for comfort, much less optimism? A few years ago the Danes offered a therapy for stress called hygge, a concept that gave us any excuse to drape ourselves in blankets, nestle into armchairs and enjoy the beneficence of cozy moments. This winter, Japan exports its balm for battered souls: shinrin-yoku, or forest bathing. In his reassuring and nicely illustrated guide, forest BATHING: How Trees Can Help You Find Health and Happiness (Viking, $20), Dr. Qing Li, chairman of the Japanese Society for Forest Medicine, prescribes an exercise akin to sunbathing or seabathing, but among the pines. This isn't any mundane walk in the woods; fnstagramming prohibited, please. Move deliberately. String a hammock between cedars. Better yet, sprawl on the moss and let the weight of your body sink onto the earth. Try not to worry about ticks. Li offers "a wealth of data that proves" that shinrin-yoku can reduce blood pressure, stress and blood-sugar levels. 1 was pleased to learn about phytoncides, the natural oils that trees release "to protect them from bacteria, insects and fungi." As "part of the communication pathway between trees," they also provide a boost to the human immune system; try a diffuser sprinkled with hinoki cypress oil if you're housebound this winter. Yoshifumi Miyazaki, a professor at Chiba University in Japan and author Of SHINRIN VOKU: The Japanese Art of Forest Bathing (Timber, $16.95), shares test results of forest therapy on men with high blood pressure (why must it always be men?), office workers and "mature" women (ah, there we are). A companion volume, the handsome among trees: a Guided Journal for Forest Bathing (Timber, $18.95), contains excursion logs and instructions to "count the various shades of green." Friendly enough, but the bossiness may thwart that aimless spirit. In these books, Japanese forests look open and pristine; pine needles pad the ground invitingly. The forests of my longing are more Germanic in sensibility: shadowy, disconcerting places echoing with the voices of Grimm's fairy tales. They raise the blood pressure. At times it feels best to skip the forest and instead see the trees - each in its unique glory. AROUND THE WORLD IN 80 TREES (Laurence King, $24.99) is an exquisite way to do just that. Beautiful illustrations by the French artist Lucille Clerc, strewn generously throughout, have the limpid calm of vernal pools. The book's author, Jonathan Drori, whose sunny prose sparkles with authority, grew up near the Royal Botanic Gardens at Kew, where he later served as a trustee. His childhood passion for plants branched into a study of the ways humans and trees interact. Drori and Clerc's book abounds with discoveries. The London plane trees that line many of the city's squares have adapted well to polluted air; their bark "drops off in flakes the size of a baby's hand," sloughing away layers of grime to unclog pores that allow the exchange of gases, leaving behind the trunk's characteristic army-camouflage pattern. Leyland cypresses owe their popularity to issues of privacy, class and property rights; in 1990s London, strife over these hedges was responsible for a suicide and at least two murders. Moroccan goats climb into the branches of the argan tree to munch on its fruit, the size of a small plum, which protects one or two small oil-rich seeds. In Japan, the Chinese lacquer tree gave rise to a cult of assisted suicide among monks hoping to achieve Buddhahood. Vajragupta's seductive WILD AWAKE: Alone, Offline & Aware in Nature (Windhorse, paper, $12.95) might inspire you to drop everything and tramp across the fens. Or nestle into your pillows with this lucid, thoughtful and important memoir, setting off on a journey into stillness and contentment. Ordained into a Buddhist order in 1994, Vajragupta began a practice of annual solitary retreats, over decades, beginning in a caravan by the sea in Wales. There he found "sorry-looking sheep, wind-slanted gorse, wind-stunted ash." And "a whole new person I had never really met before - me." In Spain and Scotland, across Cornwall and Cumbria, Vajragupta muses, in tussocky swales of sentences, on the yellow-eyed glare of a sparrow hawk, "a dark tarn full of tadpoles," the glisten of tens of thousands of pale-pink jellyfish washed up on a beach. All is not silent: One dark night, a huge boulder breaks off and slides down an escarpment, stopping miraculously short of crushing his cabin. All is not sitting, either, though the retreats began as a way of prolonging meditation, practicing "disciplined idleness." Vajragupta begins to walk farther and farther, confronting his fear of being lost, meeting his own wildness, until the walks themselves become the meditation. He walks to mourn the death of his father, walks both to quiet and enliven his mind. And he becomes "astonished by how alive" the places he visits are. He urges us to imagine the lives of other creatures as best we can, "to be intimate with all things," as a Zen master put it. Your blood pressure may rise within days of emerging from your forest bath, but Vajragupta demonstrates that the muscles of resilience - and the habits of regeneration - exercised through a sustained, empathic mingling with the natural world will serve you for a lifetime. "It was a matter of love," Vajragupta says. Learning to empathize feels necessary - for the sake of nature too. That's the message from Merlin Ttittle, the founder of Bat Conservation International. This new edition of his 2015 book, THE SECRET LIVES OF BATS: My Adventures With the World's Most Misunderstood Mammals (Houghton Mifflin Harcourt, paper, $15.99), is proof that teenage passion can change the world. One autumn in Austin, Tex., in the mid-1980s, more than a million Brazilian free-tailed bats moved into crevices under a bridge near the State Capitol. People panicked and called for the bats' extermination. Never mind that they could consume 15 tons of insects nightly. Alarmed by the headlines, Ttittle resigned his position with the Milwaukee Public Museum and moved to Texas to rescue the bats, meeting with city officials to convince them that "bats make wonderful neighbors." Within a few years, the mayor announced that Austin was the bat capital of America; the bats now bring in 12 million tourist dollars every summer. Over the course of 50 years of studying bats, from Tennessee to Thailand, Ttittle engineered many more such conversions from revulsion to devotion. Nowadays, architects design special bridges and houses to accommodate urban bats. Tuttle and his father, a high school biology teacher, began exploring caves in his hometown near Knoxville, Tenn. The teenager, armed with field notes, persuaded his mother to drive him all the way to the Smithsonian to meet with scientists - without an appointment - who might teach him more about the gray myotis, whose migratory patterns entranced him. In that magical way of great love affairs, he met the man who would later become his mentor. Grad-school spelunking in dangerous terrain meant confrontations with angry bulls and suspicious moonshiners; caves were often full of illegal stills guarded by armed outlaws. He befriended some of them; one man in his late 20 s, the same age as Ttittle, had eight children and lived in two bedrooms, but, intrigued by the bat man, he welcomed him at his dinner table and gave him safe passage. Bat populations were crashing across the country. Ttittle's beloved gray myotis was in such severe decline by the late 1960s that experts predicted its extinction. Ttittle didn't expect people to find his bats cute, nor did he think many would take the time to learn their creature habits. Instead, he took a pragmatic approach to converting enemies into allies, demonstrating the bats' usefulness. One potato farmer, who owned property with an important nursery cave, agreed to let Tuttle explore if he killed the bats. Instead, Tuttle showed him the discarded wing covers of potato beetles eaten by the bats on their way home. "Your colony may eat up to a hundred pounds of insects in a single night," he told the stunned farmer, who figured his bats were "worth more than five dollars apiece" in savings on insecticides - and decided to protect them. Bats, some of which can live 30 years or more, provide free pollination and insect control services. They have social structures resembling those of elephants, dolphins and humans. They share information and visit friends. They cuddle and play, wrapping one another in winged hugs. Females generally give birth to only one pup, and some, like the vampire bat, nurse their young for up to nine months. Those vampire bats also "practice reciprocal altruism," becoming "most generous to those who have helped them in the past, a trait that is rare beyond humans, chimpanzees and wild dogs." Ttittle has worked through periods when things seemed hopeless; even today, the outlook for some bats is uncertain. They continue to be hunted and poisoned. They're also threatened by carelessly operated wind energy facilities, a problem Ttittle hopes to solve with actions as simple as reprogramming computers to activate turbines at different times. Bats are beset by fatal fungal diseases and maligned by "exaggerated claims that they are sources of so-called emerging diseases," which are quite rare. But Ttittle takes cheer, as should we, in watching as bat research becomes one of "biology's most exciting frontiers." Bees also "need our curiosity," as Thor Hanson puts it in the vividly zinging BUZZ: The Nature and Necessity of Bees (Basic Books, $27). They have an image problem, since they "do not hide their otherness." Too many of us are put off by the creepiness of their exoskeletons - never mind their sting. My grandson is obsessed with an animated series about trucks from Korea, "Robocar Poli"; when a truck dislodges a hive, bees swarm angrily onto the face of the trucks' beloved young dispatcher. If you've never witnessed the revolted, full-body shudder of a 2-year-old, I can assure you it's a fearsome thing. And yet "no other group of insects has grown so close to us, none is more essential, and none is more revered" than the bee. Hanson, who lives on a forested island in the Pacific Northwest, zips and waggles through fascinating journeys to meet fellow bee obsessives, reminding us that here, again, we have brought trouble upon ourselves: 40 percent of bee species are in decline or threatened with extinction. We tag along as he visits the impressively levelheaded Diana Cox-Foster of the United States Department of Agriculture's "Bee Lab" at Utah State University, who warns us off easy answers, pointing to the four P's: parasites, poor nutrition, pesticides and pathogens. We spray vast acres of golf courses and farmland with poisons. We move to the country, but we want it to look suburban, so we rip out those messy but vital hedgerows filled with pollen-rich weeds - bee food. Scientists are still finding traces of DDT on pollen, though it was banned decades ago. The problem, she points out, may not be as simple as eliminating one pesticide; chemical cocktails synergize, enhancing their effects in combination. But products are tested and evaluated only in isolation. Books about forest bathing - and trees "talking" to one another through chemical signals - are signs of a resurgent strain of romanticism, even mysticism, in our feelings about nature. Wishful, perhaps. But given the urgency of our problems, the bat and bee (and other) protectors resort to a pragmatic approach that will sound crass to tender ideologues: Invest in nature not because we cherish it, but because it returns a monetary profit. Our almond industry tells a tale of degradation - and tentative reparation. California's Central Valley now supplies 81 percent of the world's annual almond harvest; in that region alone, 940,000 acres are under cultivation. Beneath the trees, "a powdery brown moonscape of bare soil" is mowed and sprayed with poisons so fallen nuts can be efficiently vacuumed up, obliterating the native bees' habitat. The cost of trucking bees in to pollinate the trees is soaring. Bees aren't always available. They're stressed by their commute, overworked, malnourished. Their hives are vulnerable to theft. One promising solution, promoted by Xerces, the only major nonprofit in North America devoted to saving insects, has been to reintroduce hedgerows and manage native bee habitat so that pollination can be done the oldfashioned way - for free. The idea is catching on, with General Mills now mandating that almond suppliers "incorporate pollinator conservation into their production stream." Results are immediate; it turns out bees respond rapidly even to small changes. OUR NATIVE BEES: North America's Endangered Pollinators and the Fight to Save Them (Timber, $25.95) takes a tighter flight path through overwhelming amounts of information. It annoys its author, Paige Embry - rightly - that most people know next to nothing about the 4,000 species of native bees nesting in the ground, in trees and in the sides of our houses. They get lots of close-ups here. Embry's prose is clear and crisp. Her habit of attention began with the tomatoes of her Georgia childhood, which, she later learned, need those native bees to shake the pollen off the plants. So what about all that tasty stuff the bees and bats take care of - if we let them? In the late 1980s, Eliot Coleman modestly launched a revolution in the organic farming that keeps such tiny wildlife humming and buzzing, the NEW ORGANIC GROWER: A Master's Manual of Tools and Techniques for the Home and Market Gardener (Chelsea Green, paper, $29.95) has been updated for its 30th anniversary edition; it remains as relevant as ever. Coleman urges small landowners to ramp up productivity by avoiding pesticides, tending compost piles and sticking to two-acre farms - "more than sufficient land to grow a year's worth of vegetables for 100 people." Tilling the soil in Maine, he has pioneered dead-of-winter growing techniques and designed new tools to make production more efficient. Soil health, bee health, human health: We are braided in dependency. The loss of beloved creatures may leave us at a loss for words - and a loss of words too. A decade ago, a close observer of the Oxford Junior Dictionary noticed that 40 words concerning nature had been dropped from a new edition, no longer used by enough children to warrant inclusion: acorn, dandelion, fern, newt, heron, otter, willow. All gone, replaced by words like blog, broadband, bulletpoint and voice mail. What a dismal state of affairs, one that tugged at Robert Macfarlane, the British author of the spellbinding "Landmarks," and Jackie Morris, a magisterial illustrator and the author of several classic children's books. In the lost words (Anansi, $35), the duo conjures the crackly gorgeousness of "heather," the rooty charm of "dandelion," the dignity of "newt" - though minute, "we're kings of the pond, lions of the duckweed, dragons of the water." Every page is enthralling. Even as hate is on the rise, I like to think - no, I need to think-that its opposite will win out. That everyday acts of cherishment, whether of bees or bats or weeds or words, will save us. However, it's increasingly clear that love, while an endlessly renewable source of energy, is necessary - but not sufficient. Thankfully, there are many among us who can harness that energy, heeding even the tiniest cries for help, and think creatively about what's to be done. They roll up their sleeves and get to work. That's where we find hope. And that kind of work may be the best therapy for all concerned. dominique browning, formerly the editor of House & Garden, is the founder and director of Moms Clean Air Force.

Suspended BJP MP Kirti Azad Jha termed the CBI a "caged parrot" and asked why the agency has not taken action on his complaint against Union Finance Minister Arun Jaitley in the alleged Rs 400 crore DDCA scam….reports Asian Lite News
"When CBI is raiding other leaders why leave Arun Jaitley's Rs 400 crore DDCA Scam? All documentary proof given to caged parrot CBI," Jha said in a tweet.
Jha's remarks came after the CBI on Tuesday carried out raids at the premises of former union Minister P. Chidambaram and his son Karti Chidambaram in connection with criminal misconduct in the grant of FIPB approvals.
Jha, a Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) parliamentarian from Darbhanga in Bihar, was suspended on December 23, 2015 for publicly targeting Jaitley.
He has been targeting Jaitley ever since he raised his voice about corruption in the Delhi and District Cricket Association (DDCA).
Jaitley has filed a defamation suit against the suspended BJP leader.

Hey there friend.
This past Saturday was the worst day of my blogging life. I know… that's so dramatic and annoying but seriously, I cried. A lot.
Here's what happened.
With one click, I deleted all 25,053 of my current email subscribers.
I thought for a short time that it was a glitch. But within an hour, I'd gotten a reply from my email service provider saying that I had deleted them and they could not restore them for me. Cue the tears. 😭😭😭
I was devastated. I know this may seem trivial or silly to some of you, but email is the way I reach my readers. It's the direct route… no social media required. No waiting for them to (hopefully) check my blog for updates. I can send them a note and say "hey!" any time I want.
And it's the place where I connect best with you, reply to you, chat with you… it's my favorite way to reach out.
Also… I've been collecting that stash of emails for the better part of 10 years. So to lose all of your email addresses in a matter of seconds was horrible.
Less than 48 hours later, I had a ray of hope. I found a year-old backup saved on my laptop (from September 2018) and a few other partial backups from 2017. It wasn't my current, whole list, but it was a good chunk of them.
Also, thanks to Google Drive and my amazing assistant, I had a backup of everybody that had signed up for my emails through the All Things Cake group in the past several months.
Why am I telling you all of this? Because if you used to be on my email list and you didn't get a welcome email from me (again) in the past 48 hours, I'd love for you to sign up again here.
Or if you've never been on my email list, same. Please join here.
For the rest of you … the backup I had downloaded did **not** sort you into previously sorted groups.
If you get an email from me any time in the future that you don't want to get again, click unsubscribe with my apologies. But if you do love getting my emails and want to be on specific lists, click below and you'll be sorted again based on your interest.
Click here to choose which newsletters you'd like to get. Just enter your name and email after you click through and check the boxes! Want to help out some more? Forward my emails to a friend or share my cake blog with other peeps who love cake!
The Rose Bakes Daily and Weekly are most popular. I also included links for my other blogs as well, since all of them were lost too. If you didn't know, my other blogs are PressureCookermeals.com, RoseAtwater.com and CakeBlogging.com. They're not as active as Rose Bakes but I'd love to have you on those lists 😍
Thank you all so much for helping me get this mess sorted out!!

Cave Story
I finally got around to playing this game, on the recommendation of virtually every gamer I have known. There is very little that I can think to say about it. The gameplay is superb. It lends itself well to repeat playthroughs. I also found myself enjoying the story, despite its trope heavy nature. The execution of the second trope struck me as a cop-out of the largest sort, however, it's such a small element of the game I feel no need to go after it. Especially given the existence of better targets, many of which I have attacked in previous articles.
To me, the most noteworthy aspect of the game was the dialogue of the hermit gunsmith. Upon returning the weapon you stole from him, he breaks down, stating that he is overjoyed that somebody could use his unfinished weapon as rigorously as the player has throughout the course of the game. Even though he was given nothing in exchange for his hard work, he considers the fact that his work was appreciated to be rewarding. I hope I am not reading too much into this dialogue, but I see a parallel between the situation of the hermit gunsmith and Daisuke Amaya himself, who created the game and made it freely available.
I would just like to say thank you to Amaya-sama, who made an outstanding game. Perhaps soon I will attempt to clear it using only the polar star.

NAVIGATE ESUS: Rivaroxaban fails to reduce recurrence in embolic stroke
Click Here to Manage Email Alerts
Rivaroxaban did not reduce the risk for recurrent stroke in patients with embolic stroke compared with aspirin, although it increased the risk for bleeding, according to data presented at the European Stroke Organization Conference.
The results were simultaneously published in The New England Journal of Medicine.
"The effect of the 15-mg daily dose of rivaroxaban on stroke prevention substantially overlaps the effect of the 20-mg daily dose," Robert G. Hart, MD, professor in the division of neurology at McMaster University in Hamilton, Ontario and principal investigator of the stroke and cognition program at Population Health Research Institute in Hamilton, Ontario, and colleagues wrote. "The latter dose is approved in most countries for the prevention of stroke in patients with atrial fibrillation. Consequently, the use of the 15-mg dose of rivaroxaban in our trial was unlikely to account for the lack of benefit in stroke prevention."
Patients with ischemic stroke
In the phase 3 NAVIGATE ESUS trial, researchers analyzed data from 7,213 patients (mean age, 67 years; 62% men) who had an ischemic stroke that was not lacunar and not linked to extracranial vessel atherosclerosis. Cardiac rhythm monitoring and echocardiography were performed to rule out other causes of stroke.
Patients were assigned 15 mg rivaroxaban (Xarelto, Janssen/Bayer) with placebo once per day (n = 3,609) or 100 mg aspirin with placebo once per day (n = 3,604). Follow-up was conducted at 1 month, 6 months, 12 months and every 6 months after that, when patients were assessed for safety and efficacy events, adverse events and adherence.
The primary efficacy outcome was first recurrent stroke or systemic embolism in a time-to-event analysis. The primary safety outcome was major bleeding at any site in the body.
At the recommendation of the data and safety monitoring committee, the trial was terminated on Oct. 5, 2017, due to an excess risk for bleeding in patients assigned rivaroxaban and the lack of benefit for the reduction of stroke risk. Due to the termination, follow-up was conducted for a median of 11 months.
Event rates
Recurrent stroke or systemic embolism occurred in 172 patients assigned rivaroxaban (5.1% annualized rate) vs. 160 patients assigned aspirin (4.8% annualized rate; HR = 1.07; 95% CI, 0.87-1.33).
Ischemic stroke was seen in 158 patients in the rivaroxaban group (4.7% annualized rate) and 156 patients in the aspirin group (4.7% annualized rate; HR = 1.01; 95% CI, 0.81-1.26).
More patients assigned rivaroxaban (n = 62; 1.8% annualized rate) had major bleeding compared with patients assigned aspirin (n = 23; 0.7% annualized rate; HR = 2.72; 95% CI, 1.68-4.39).
"Rivaroxaban, including the 15-mg daily dose that was used in the current trial, has been effective for the prevention of recurrent stroke in patients with atrial fibrillation, and the absence of an observed lower rate of recurrent ischemic stroke with rivaroxaban than with aspirin in the current trial suggests that undetected paroxysmal atrial fibrillation was not a major cause of recurrent stroke," Hart and colleagues wrote. – by Darlene Dobkowski

Official Bracknagh GAA Website
The earliest reference to Gaelic football in Bracknagh dates back to the first county committee meeting in 1889, where CJ Kickhams, a football team from Bracknagh became the first east Offaly team to be entered in an official competition. Little is known about the success or personnel involved in this team.
A look through the Offaly archives of the Offaly county board (c.1910s), suggests that there was a North Offaly GAA sub-committee consisting of delegates from Ballinagar, Ballycommon, Ballycumber, Bracknagh, Clara, Cloghan, Clonmore, Cloneygowan, Edenderry, Durrow, Geashill, Gurteen, Killeigh, Knockballyboy, Philipstown (Daingean), Rahan, Raheen, Rhode, and Tullamore clubs.
There is a record of Bracknagh beating Banagher in the Offaly Junior Football Championship in 1912, captained by Edward Carvill, a teacher from county Down who was teaching in St.Broughan's National School at the time. Mr Carvill is credited to being a key figure in forming Bracknagh GAA (circa 1910). The team competed in the 1913 senior and junior championship before the 1912 junior championship was complete. Bracknagh played a strong Tullamore team in the 1913 Senior Championship in Cloneygowan and fought bravely before losing out to a very strong team. Bracknagh played Ballycommon in the 1913 junior championship which was played on the same day as the senior game. A large number of the players who played in this team came from the wider parish of Walsh Island and Clonbullogue. It appears that the club was disbanded in the early 20th century.
Bracknagh is situated in the midlands close to Bord na Móna factories. Bord na Móna built houses in the late 1940s for their employees. More people came to live in the area as a result of Bord na Móna employment. Players from the village have known to have played with Clonbullogue and Walsh Island. Many players from Bracknagh were part of the Junior Football winning championship team with Clonbullogue in 1965. A parish team was created in 1968 under the name of Éire Óg but this was short lived.
In 1973, a group of passionate Gaels got together under the chairmanship of Tom Fitzpatrick. Bracknagh GAA was re-established. Success on the pitch proved difficult in its infancy, with the club losing three junior titles in 1974 to St.Ryanaghs, 1976 to Cappincur and 1977 to Ballycommon. The Offaly county board reintroduced the Intermediate championship in 1978. Bracknagh at its first attempt won their maiden intermediate title captained by Seamus Comerford, beating St.Carthages in the final.
Further disappointment was to follow two years later, losing another intermediate final to St.Ryanaghs in 1980 before winning their second intermediate title in 1983. Jimmy Storan was captain of this team beating St.Brigids in the final.
Silverware was hard to win and a barron spell followed for the club until 1997 when Bracknagh won the division 2 league title beating St.Brigids in the final to get promoted to the top table for the first time in our history. Three years pass by before success can be achieved again. Bracknagh beat Ballyfore in the Intermediate Football Championship in 2000, captained by Aidan Dempsey.
What followed this title was the most sustained period of senior status in the club's history with a highlight being a quarter final appearance against Tullamore in 2002. Bracknagh competed at senior level for the next few years before returning to Intermediate level in 2006. 10 years passed before another winning championship would return to the village. Anthony Cunningham captained the side to win the 2016 Intermediate title.
Our close bond to parish neighbours, Walsh Island and Clonbullogue flourished at under age level forming St.Broughans for all juvenile activity. St. Broghan lived with his monks at a monastery in Clonsast in the 7th century. He built a church and well there. There is a stone located at the site which is said to have an impression of St Broghan's head in it. If you take water from the well, put it in the stone and then place your head in the stone it is supposed to cure headaches. For hundreds of years the pattern of Clonshannon was held to honour St. Broghan. People gathered at the well and said mass and held sporting events on the 29th of June each year. The pattern was celebrated for many years but has stopped in the last 20 years. The feast day of St. Broghan is the 19th of December.
Offaly has had many players who have represented Bracknagh on various county panels over the years. The earliest representation goes back to 1912, when 6 players from Bracknagh played for Offaly against Laois in a Junior game in Birr on the 2nd June 1912. At senior level the number has been far less, but unquestionably the most successful was Sean Brereton who in 1960 was a member of the first Offaly Senior Football team to win a Leinster final. Sean played a year later for Offaly who were beaten by Down in the All Ireland Football Final in 1960. Sean won three railway cup medals representing Leinster.
Tom Fitzpatrick was the next Bracknagh Club man to wear the green, white and gold for the Senior team. Tom played for Offaly in the late 70s and early 80s, narrowly missing out on bringing a Senior All-Ireland medal back to Bracknagh.
In the late nineties, two more players, David Connolly and Fran Wyer had the honour of representing the club at county level with David a member of the 1997 Offaly panel who captured the Leinster title.
Peter Cunningham is currently representing Bracknagh on the Offaly County team.
The Gaels of Bracknagh were able to celebrate an All-Ireland medal in 2013, when Catherine Bennett played with the Offaly Ladies Junior team who won the All-Ireland Junior Championship.

The Governor of Victoria's speech at the Multifaith Youth Passover Dinner
Rabbi Yaakov Glasman, Immediate Past President, Rabbinical Council of Australia and New Zealand, Senior Rabbi, St Kilda Synagogue
Rabbi Ralph Genende OAM, Senior Rabbi Caulfield Synagogue
Ladies and gentlemen
First, I acknowledge the traditional owners of the land upon which we are gathering and pay my respects to their elders past and present and to any elders here with us this evening.
Welcome to this Passover Dinner in our magnificent State Dining Room.
Throughout history, since 1876, when this House was finished, this room has been used for important State Dinners.
Sitting exactly where you are sitting, there have been members of Royal families, world leaders and leaders of our State and nation.
Last year, we held an Iftar dinner at this table, bringing together young people from different faith backgrounds to experience the traditions surrounding the breaking of the fast during the Muslim holy month of Ramadan.
It was an important dinner, and so we specifically chose to hold it at this table of historical significance.
This evening's dinner holds a similar historical importance to us.
It is our hope that by gathering you all together, you – our future leaders – might work towards the future peace and prosperity of our State.
We can be proud that there are more than 130 religions practised around our state. People from 130 different faith backgrounds living harmoniously together.
But making sure that we continue to refine and improve such harmony weighs heavily on the minds of my generation. People who – like me – are proud of how much we have achieved to ensure a happy multicultural and diverse community in Victoria, but who know that there is always more that we can do.
Respect and harmony are necessarily works in progress. They will always require ongoing commitment, conversations and understanding.
In bringing you together this evening, it is my hope that we can assist in that understanding.
When we held the Iftar dinner last year, the rituals surrounding it were less familiar to me than those around this Passover dinner, given my Jewish background.
But I felt the same pride then as I do this evening, in bringing you together. And I had the same hope then as this evening: that you will enjoy learning from and about each other.
I hope that you will all have the chance to reflect upon and discuss the differences between you and those sitting beside you, in terms of beliefs, traditions, prayers and religious rituals.
It is good to know those differences: to learn and to appreciate the rich heritage of each religion.
I have no doubt that such openness will also help you to see the similarities between you. Your common sense of right and wrong. Your shared commitment to caring for your fellow man and woman. The family values that your religion instils in you.
And I suspect that you will appreciate the many similarities in your aspirations for the future and, as young Victorians, your hopes and dreams for the future of our State.
And so, this evening we will share a Passover (style) kosher meal. We shall have three young people of Jewish faith talk us to us about some of the traditions of Passover, including the Seder Plate you see at the top of the table, the blessing over the wine and the blessing of the matzah.
Just one thing in closing.
I am not sure if you noticed, but a little earlier I referred to you being the future leaders of our State, and therefore fundamental to our peace and prosperity.
When I referred to 'peace and prosperity', those words were not randomly chosen. They are in fact the words of Victoria's State motto.
'Peace and Prosperity'. It's what we wish for every Victorian. And it's what can be achieved through your openness and understanding.
We are so happy to share this opportunity with you and thank you for joining us.

After a long and lovely I-80 experience on Friday morning, I made it safely to Omaha.
A trip to the zoo, a visit to a friend's sister in the hospital, and we were set to attend Wicked at the Orpheum. We spiffed up in our Sunday's best and walked the staircase of the theatre. The show itself was amazing! I've seen it once before, but it just seems to get better! The voices were powerful, and the songs sent shivers down my spine. I would see it again, if I could! I cannot wait to see another play 🙂 Sadly, with my college student's budget a play will not be in my near future… for now I will just have to return to reality.
I was also honored to be able to serve in my "big sister's" wedding this Saturday. My sorority sister asked me to hand out programs for her wedding. She was a gorgeous bride, and it was a joy to share in her special day. I wish her and her new husband the best as they start this new life together!
This wedding has turned my thoughts once again towards Alex's big day, only two months from tomorrow. I cannot wait to see her walk down the aisle and marry her high school sweetheart. She deserves to have a day of celebration centered on her new future.

Wednesday, June 14, 2017 - 13:30
The Physical Disability Council of NSW is running a new initiative called Community Conversations, it's a series of meet-ups across the inner west where people can discuss issues and concerns about their local community.
It's not specifically about disability and is open to everyone, although we're hoping it will touch on ways that the inner west can be more inclusive and accessible.
The conversations are open to everyone in the local community and cover a diverse range of topics, and are not disability specific.
Places are limited. For more information and how to book, call 1800 688 831.
Hannaford Centre, 608 Darling Street, Rozelle.

A jury was little help when Norman and Kathleen Carter of Yucaipa sought help from the courts for their California ERISA denied claim. All is not lost, however, as the plaintiffs are weighing their options for appeal.
As outlined in the San Bernardino Sun (1/4/13), the Carters purchased a $1 million policy featuring low premiums but a high deductible from Mid-West National Life Insurance Company, a US-based provider with head offices in Tennessee. The purchase was made in March 2004. Six years later, Kathleen Carter was diagnosed with cancer and was treated at the hospital over a three-week period, from January 23 through February 15, 2011.
While there was no denied ERISA disability involved, medical bills claimed by the couples were processed by Mid-West, with the insurer classifying $134,000 of the claim as miscellaneous. The remainder, which represented 77 percent of the total claim, was denied outright. The Carters were paid 23 percent of the total medical bill for Kathleen's cancer treatment at Loma Linda University Medical Center.
In their California ERISA denied claim lawsuit, the Carters alleged their Mid-West policy did not adequately articulate what charges would be construed as "miscellaneous" and which charges would not be covered, and this past August filed a bad faith insurance lawsuit against the firm, citing fraud and breach of the implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing.
However, the jury rejected the plaintiff's claims and found for the defense. The jury hypothesized that in its view the plaintiff should have known the insurance coverage they eventually purchased was lacking, simply by reading through the policy. In this way, the jury did not agree the plaintiffs were "deceived or defrauded" and determined the plaintiffs, in the juror's view, failed to meet the burden of proof.
It was not articulated just how the Carters had purchased the problematic policy and whether or not a Mid-West representative was directly involved in vending the product to them.
In this case, however, according to the jury, the insurer provided exactly the benefits as reflected in the policy under California insurance law. The issue, therefore, may well be just how the plaintiffs came to misinterpret the tenets of their policy, and whether an appeal will deliver some California insurance claim help.
The case is Norman and Kathleen Carter v. Med-West National Life Insurance Company of Tennessee, Case No. CIVRS 1107691.

Gynaecology is the area of medicine that deals with health issues and conditions that are specific to women. This generally includes the female reproductive organs and genitalia. The reproductive organs consist of the ovaries that release an egg every month, the fallopian tubes that lead from the ovaries, the uterus (womb), which is where a baby will grow if the egg is fertilised during sexual intercourse, the cervix (opening of the uterus) and the vagina.

In Imamoğlu Turkey's CHP found a politician that can broaden appeal - analysis
Turkey's secularist Republican People Party (CHP) has managed to attract pious voters by choosing Ekrem İmamoğlu, a practicing Muslim, as its mayoral candidate for Istanbul, Foreign Affairs said on Friday.
Initial results of the March 31 polls show İmamoğlu narrowly won control of Turkey's biggest city and economic powerhouse, seemingly ending the 25-year rule of President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan's Justice and Development Party (AKP) and its Islamist predecessors.
The AKP demanded a rerun of the March 31 mayoral election after İmamoğlu emerged as the winner with less than 0.2 percent of the more than eight million votes cast in Istanbul. A recount of invalidated votes demanded by the AKP underway still leaves İmamoğlu in the lead by 13,963 votes, Cumhuriyet newspaper said on Friday.
Losing Istanbul is a major financial hit to the AKP and a personal one for Erdoğan, whose rise to power begun when he became Istanbul's mayor in 1994. Turkish president campaigned relentlessly for local elections, even sidelining the party's mayoral candidate and former Prime Minister Binali Yıldırım by taking the stage and warning his voters that the nation's survival was at stake, Foreign Affairs said.
İmamoğlu, a largely unknown district mayor of Istanbul, ran his campaign with almost no media presence, using social media to live stream his visits to street markets and addressing everyday problems of Istanbul's residents.
"Pious voters have long shunned the centrist CHP, repelled by its rigidly secularist ideology and stodgy, elitist image. But nominating İmamoglu, a practicing Muslim who scheduled time on the campaign trail to attend Friday prayers, allowed the CHP, humbled by so many years in the political wilderness, to broaden its appeal," Foreign Affairs said.
According to Akif Beki, a columnist and a former press adviser to Erdoğan, İmamoğlu, who grew up in a religious family in the conservative Black Sea region, doesn't carry the baggage of a classic CHP politician. "Efforts to discredit him by saying he's an enemy of the azan [the call to prayer] or will knock down mosques just don't stick," Foreign Affairs quoted İmamoğlu as saying.
In this local elections, the CHP declared victory in most of the places it chose to nominate mayoral candidates among local politicians, which signals a shift from its top-down approach. "In Imamoglu, it found a politician who got his start in local politics, with natural reflexes and who genuinely knows how to communicate with the man on the street," said Emre Erdoğan, a political scientist at Istanbul's Bilgi University.
According to Emre Erdoğan, İmamoğlu resembles the Turkish president in some ways. "Like Erdoğan, Imamoğlu believes he possesses the secret formula for continued political success," he said.

It's Easter today and with so many people running around to church, to see family and to eat ham, I'm staying home and conserving gas! I normally stay home this holiday, my husband works and I have a normal routine. I watch "religious" movies. In the DVD player right now is that Stephen King classic Children of the Corn, which is about children worshiping a corn god in Iowa. Also on today's viewing list is The Omen, The Exorcist, Stigmata, End of Days, and The Holy Grail. Normally, Dogma would be first on the list but I loaned that out to my bosses wife a few months ago and forgot to get it back. Bummer!
During this religious movie fest, I'm going to let you know my song picks for the Idol contestants this week. As most of you know, it's "Songs from the year they were born" week and, as Jennifer pointed out, due to the age of the contestants, it is basically 80's week again! I am picking my songs from the top 100 of the birth years. I know I said this before (but I still can't believe how old am)...three of the contestants were born the year I graduated high school. Well, here they are in no particular order. I've decided to pick three songs for each: one serious, one funny, and one that I would just LOVE to hear. I'm also assuming that they can get the rights to all these songs.
Michael Lee Johns (1978) is the oldest and has a chance to do some Bee Gees which I hope he does not. I was going to try to download my final song picks to determine a winner but it's taking too long! So I'm just going to go by what I remember of the songs.
Serious: Just the Way You Are - Billy Joel
Funny: Copacabana - Barry Manilow (Can you picture it!)
Love: Don't Let Me Be Misunderstood - Santa Esmeralde (just thinking about this song makes me smile...yes, I'm a dork)
Kristy Lee Cook (1984) is the contestant that won't leave and I'm not sure if she'll even leave this week. She has quite a few options but I'm assuming she'll pick Time After Time by Cyndi Lauper but that wouldn't be my pick.
Serious: Let's Hear It For The Boys - Deniece Williams (she needs something up beat that can have a country twang)
Funny: I Want A New Drug - Huey Lewis and The News (Dedicated to Paula of course)
Love: On The Dark Side - John Cafferty & The Beaver Brown Band (what girl in the 80's didn't fall in love with this song and Michael Paré from Eddie and the Cruisers?)
Chikezie (1985) needs another song that is going to blow us way this week or he may be going home. I'd miss him if that happened.
Serious: Suddenly - Billy Ocean (he should start this one sitting on a stool and end sitting on the stairs going down into the audience)
Funny: California Girls - David Lee Roth (no quicker way to funny than singing a song made famous by someone who can't sing)
Love: Everybody Wants To Rule The World - Tears for Fears (it's Tears for Fears, what else do I need to say?)
How much a dislike David Archuleta (1990) hit home while I was trying to find a song for him. I have a few that are serious but most are funny. I think he will end of singing How am I Suppose to Live Without You by Michael Bolton because it's a boring ballad and that's what he can sing.
Serious: I Go To Extremes - Billy Joel
Funny: Opposites Attract - Paula Abdul (this was tied with Pump Up the Jam by Technotronic and Ice Ice Baby by Vanilla Ice)
Love: Without You - Motley Crue (there wasn't much from that year that I even liked)
David Cook (1982) was hard to pick for as well but for different reasons. I LIKE him. He has a lot of options in front of him. The following picks need to have him fix the arrangement either slower and softer or faster and harder
Serious: Only The Lonely - The Motels (faster and harder - like a Marilyn Manson version)
Funny: couldn't find anything LOL funny
Love: Kids in America - Kim Wilde or Don't Talk to Strangers - Rick Springfield (either one of these could be made edgier by this talented performer!)
Brooke White and Carly Smithson (1983) have they same birth year and will be choosing from the same list. I'd like them both to do something unexpected but I'm not sure if my song choices show that. Here are my picks for Brooke.
Serious: Every Breath You Take - Police
Funny: Mickey - Toni Basil
Love: I don't really like her and didn't really find any songs that I wanted her to sing
Here are my picks for Carly.
Serious: Back on The Chain Gang - Pretenders (let's hope she doesn't add any glory notes to it)
Funny: I'll Tumble 4 Ya - Culture Club (dedicated to Randy, LOL)
Love: I don't really like her either
This leaves the three that were born the year I graduated high school. I would like to say that musically, 1987 sucked. It was hard finding songs for these guys and I didn't find any really funny ones.
Ramiele Malubay is in danger this week and really needs to step it up unfortunately, she was born in 1987 which doesn't offer much help.
Serious: (I Just) Died in Your Arms - Cutting Crew (I really think she could change this up and make it her own)
Kinda Funny: I Think We're Alone Now - (she always looks like she going to the mall so why not sing a song by someone who sang in a mall)
Love: Wanted Dead or Alive - Bon Jovi (I love this song and think she would rock it)
Syesha Mercado isn't one of the favorites this year and really needs to pick a good song, oh well. She NEEDS to stay away from Whitney but I don't think that's going to happen.
Serious: You Keep Me Hanging On - Kim Wilde (not much to pick from)
Kind Funny: Breakout - Swing Sister
Love: please reread what I wrote about Brooke and Carly
Jason Castro is a cutie and I found a few more songs for him...but not many.
Serious: With Or Without You - U2 (right up his alley)
Kinda Funny: Don't Get Me Wrong - Pretenders (I think he could do a good job on this)
Love: Lady In Red - Chris DeBurgh (I'd prefer Don't Pay the Ferryman but it wasn't on the list)
Well, those are my picks. What are yours?
It's Easter today and with so many people running around to church, to see family and to eat ham, I'm staying home and conserving gas! I normally stay home this holiday, my husband works and I have a normal routine. I watch "religious" movies. In the DVD player right now is that Stephen King classic Children of the Corn, which is about children worshiping a corn god in Iowa.

You made me snort pop out my nose with your religious movies!
I can't help but feel old when I realize this bunch was all being born as I was graduating...I hope they can do justice to my old favorite songs...
