Hello ladies,
Yes, yet again me trying new things. This is what life is about, right?
I have probably about 15 concealers in my foundation/concealer drawer. Not that I'm not happy with them in fact some are in my top 5 (including links to my reviews) such as the Collection 2000 one, the Laura Mercier Secret concealer, MAC Studio Scultp, Maybelline super stay 24 hs and my Dermacolour palette among many others.
However, there's always something new to try. I've been intrigued for ages about the Studio Finish concealers by MAC so I decided to get myself a two- one for my undereyes and the other for the redness around my face.
So far- they are my favourite combo at the moment!
As you can see from the photo I use a Real Technique's brush to apply them but you can use it with your fingers or any type of concealer brush. I find that with this brush I get a quick, simple and light application. Ideal for the morning.
I went for NW25 for under my eyes. I find that a red based conceaer under my eyes does wonders to wake up my expression and help me with some small blue tone close to the bridge of the nose and with some tiny blue veins near my eyes. Sexy!
For the face I decided to go for an NC30. so far so good! It dos what it says on the tin. It convers everything and pretty well!
To finish the application I use some setting powder by Laura Mercier. This is the brightening powder which is more for under the eyes but it does a decent job at setting the conceaer around the nose too.
It is true that this conceaers are super powerful in terms of coverage and pigmentation. They are pretty good!
for now I will keep on using these until further notice. Of course I will keep on using all my other stuff but this are on my go-to make-up at the moment.
Have you tried these?
Any recommendations? Ways of using it? Applying it?

Speed of Results6.5
Quality of Ingredient7.5
Customer Service8
Customer Feedback6
This review will provide an in-depth analysis of Futurebiotics VeinFactors to help you make an informed consumer decision. We have assessed several factors which contribute the product efficacy to determine if this product can deliver on manufacturer claims. The manufacturer states that VeinFactors contains patented extracts designed to support normal vein function and alleviate varicose veins.
- DiosVein Diosmin Complex (with Hesperidin)
- Citrus powder from lemon peel
- Citrus Bioflavonoids
- Venocin
- Centellin
- Butcher's Broom root extract
- Futurebiotics Bio Accelerators (Bioperine, Ginger root extract, Trikatu, Digezyme, Lactospore)
The aforementioned list of ingredients can prove beneficial for reduced varicose veins. Diosmin and Hesperidin are commonly used to improve blood circulation and reduce inflammation. Venocin is a patented ingredient extracted from Horse Chestnut Seed. This ingredient is common to many competitor products as it plays a pivotal role in improving blood circulation and alleviating symptoms associated with varicose veins. Butcher's Broom is known for its anti-inflammatory and astringent properties and may improve the product's effectiveness. The additional ingredients are also designed to provide added relief from varicose veins. The fact that this formula contains several patented ingredients is positive to note. That said, it only comes as a capsule. Alternative brands on the market offer both capsules and a cream for additional benefit. This can provide superior relief from symptoms and support long-term prevention.
Adults should consume three (3) capsules daily with meals. This dosage supplies 1000mg of the Diosmin and Hesperidin compound. This is typical of similar products on the market and, therefore, is sufficient.
Possible Side Effects
The manufacturer provides no warnings associated with the use of this product. This is a concern as long-term use of Diosmin can cause abdominal pain, diarrhea, and/or irregular heart rate. It would be wise to monitor for these side effects and discontinue use if these persist.
The product can be bought online from the manufacturer's store. A bottle consisting of 90 capsules will cost you $29.95. This is a relatively steep price to pay for a one month supply. There are several more affordable options to consider. There are no bulk-buy deals to promote cost-effective long-term use.
Guarantee & Feedback
The manufacturer claims to offer a 100% guarantee for purchases of this product. This guarantee is argued to last up to one year. That said, this claim is asterisked and there is no other information elaborating on the return conditions. This brings the reliability and transparency of this guarantee into question. We were also disappointed to note a few negative customer reviews which report that the product did not deliver optimal results.
Our Conclusive Review About Futurebiotics VeinFactors
The patented formula is positive to note. This indicates a level of quality consideration during the manufacturing of this product. The guarantee bodes well for the efficacy of the product, however, the lack of transparency is concerning to note. The product is relatively expensive when compared to certain competing brands. Consumers may find more affordable deals and bulk-buy options for alternatives on the market. A few negative customer reviews suggest that this product did not work as intended. We, therefore, do not recommend Futurebiotics VeinFactors as an assured remedy for varicose veins.

Automobile Plastic Parts Manufacturing
This paper introduces the injection moulding method of Mppo, PMMA, PA6, PA66, PC, pp, PBT, pet and all kinds of engineering plastic alloy for the special modification of low-voltage electronic appliance, and discusses the main points of operation control of different modified materials in injection molding. (All kinds of modified materials gloss, impact resistance, comprehensive performance is good, can be machined on the general injection molding machine, but easily degraded at high temperature, affecting the mechanical properties and surface quality of products, so in equipment selection, mold design, process parameters selection, product defects in the process to consider this point.
The general use of plastic parts in automobiles is of great significance to the development of automobile industry, plastic parts can not only reduce the quality of automobiles, save energy, make the car more safe and comfortable, plastic parts are more resistant to atmospheric corrosion than metal, gasoline-resistant, easy to process and molding and reduce production costs.Plastic Parts Manufacturing
Damage of plastic parts and adhesives, the surface of the plastic parts of the car will be damaged when the film is affected to the parts of the body, so that it produces the corresponding damage. To repair the damaged film, first of all, plastic parts should be repaired, so that it reaches the requirements of spraying topcoat, the general use of chemical binder bonding.Plastic Parts Manufacturing
The scratches and cracks of plastic parts are usually repaired by binder, and the repair process is as follows: Cleaning the parts of water and plastic cleaning agent, removing wax and degreasing on the surface of the joint; Before using the binder, the plastic parts should be heated to about 20 ℃, the catalyst will be sprayed on the side of the crack, and then the binder will be applied on the side, and the scratches or cracks should be pressed to the original position, and the good bonding effect can be obtained after approximately 1min. The bonding site should have 3~12h hardening time to achieve maximum bonding strength.Plastic Parts Manufacturing

The kids have flown the nest and you're rattling around in the family home. What do you do with all those spare rooms because you don't really feel like renting them out on Airbnb. You might even wonder whether you've got too much house and not enough super.
Now, you've got a chance to change that. Thanks to a government initiative (announced as part of the May 2017 Budget) if you're 65 or over you can sell your house and put the money into super.
Downsize your house
First up, you don't actually need to be downsizing because there's nothing in the rules that says you have to buy a smaller place (the tax office won't be sending someone out with a tape measure). You can move to the country and buy a bigger place if you want, or even rent for a while.
There are a few boxes you'll have to tick though before you can take advantage of the scheme.
You need to have been living in your home for at least ten years. You don't qualify if you've been living in a boat, caravan or mobile home either. And your home must be in Australia (so you can't flog off your condo in Nice and use the proceeds to make a super contribution).
Upsize your super
Most people who are retired and older than 65 aren't able to put extra funds into super. That's where this scheme comes in handy. You can put up to $300,000 from the sale of your home into super – if you're a couple, that's $600,000 to put into your super tax-free!
Again, there are restrictions. You can't contribute more than the sale price, or for a couple, their individual share of the sale price.
And in most cases, you've got 90 days from settlement to make the contribution.
Careful with your pension
You'll need to remember that for Age Pension purposes, your home isn't counted under the assets test. If you sell it and make a downsizer contribution, the amount you pay into super is considered an asset.
That means upsizing your super could reduce, or even cancel your Age Pension. Check with the government's Financial Information Service before you act.
Honey, I shrunk the house
If you're retired and thinking about downsizing your house, then there's plenty to consider – including the best way to look after your money in retirement and whether you want to leave a legacy.
Refer to our factsheet, or the ATO website for further information.

The flyweight division doesn't normally get the same attention or recognition as the fighters do at welterweight, super middleweight, or the heavily debated super bantamweight. This week on two smaller networks beIN sports espanol and A.W.E., four flyweights will battle for future paydays, pride, legacy, and unification supremacy.
Both fights feature similar stylistic matchmaking, the traditional puncher versus boxer match-up. In this case the boxer-types being Estrada and Yaegashi, have plenty of power and will engage in a brawl when the rubber hits the road.
The last few years Roman Gonzalez has been knocking on the door of elite status. This weekend presents a chance to kick that door in. Hardcore followers in the Western Hemisphere rave about "Chocolatito's" aggression and knockout power, having stopped 33 opponents to go along with his 39 wins.
Roman Gonzalez was on the outside looking in on the pound for pound list because of a lackluster resume. After a somewhat softer run at 108, Gonzalez earned a signature win against Juan Francisco Estrada in a highly entertaining and competitive bout.
Akira Yaegashi came up the hard way challenging for his first title shot in only seven fights. He was able to overcome two early losses, learn from it and grow. He stumbled again losing a close decision to Kazuto Ioka. His win over Edgar Sosa shot him upwards to the top tier at flyweight.
Yaegashi will need to keep his distance and stick his jab in order to keep Roman at bay. If Akira gets in trouble he's a crafty fighter who knows how to clinch and can switch from orthodox to southpaw. Movement will no doubt be important as long as he doesn't waste too much energy moving away. He will have to use his left hook to counter and stand his ground throughout the fight.
Of course, Gonzalez will be the aggressor in an attempt to close the gap and attack Akira with short hooks and uppercuts. Gonzalez needs to be more consistent with his jab to go along with all the power punches and constant activity. If not, he could get countered all night, forcing him to chase and follow instead of cutting of the ring.
Juan Francisco Estrada vs. Giovani Segura will certainly blow the roof off the Arena in Mexico City and is my pick for fight of the night, or weekend. Two Mexican warriors will meet in the ring with plenty at stake.
After his conquering of Ivan Calderon, Giovani Segura looked to be fading a bit or at least figured out, having lost two major fights in a row to Brian Viloria and Edgar Sosa. Giovani managed to beat prospect Jonathan Gonzalez setting up a match with Hernan Marquez, which turned out to be great war between the two that ended in a 12 round knockout by Segura.
In 2012, Juan Francisco Estrada proved his worth when he took on and almost beat Roman Gonzalez. He went toe to toe and managed to be busy on the outside throwing a lot of combination punches.
If fans thought that performance versus Gonzalez was a fluke they were mistaken. Not one to hold his head low, Estrada stripped Brian Viloria of his titles, following that up with a solid points win over previously unbeaten Milan Milando.
Like he did in his war with Chocolatito, Juan will have to mix up his punches and style to keep a raging Segura off of him. His activity on the outside and attention to detail in the pocket will be crucial. Just like the previously mentioned unification bout, this fight could end or change dramatically with one punch because of the punching power and tenacity of Giovani.
Segura and his team have been raving about their conditioning from a grueling training camp in Big Bear, California. That alone could provide enough confidence and ammunition to give Estrada one hell of a fight.
Segura usually prefers to rush, crowd, and smother his opponents. The talk out of his camp is a new Segura has been developed, one that cares more about getting hit than he had in the past. Normally that kind of statement or new game plan goes one of two ways.
Either the fighter remains aggressive with just a pinch of defense or use of a jab which improves his style. Or the fighter gets stuck somewhere in between resulting in a more hesitant or reluctant offensive attack.
Both fighters have stayed relatively active in recent times so they're won't be any rust to wear off. This war will be fought on all areas of the (ring) battlefield. Segura will have success coming forward and Estrada should be able to land clean from range and the inside.
The real beauty of this talented division is how the fighters, promoters, and smaller networks worked together just like how things used to be. If a fighter gets beat nowadays they better hope it was a fight of the year candidate, or has a track record of entertaining brawls. Fans jump off a fighter much quicker and either overrate or undervalue way too early in the process of a fighter's development.
These flyweight wars have been giving new fans a perfect example of the triangle theory. Fans on social media and forums are so quick to assume fighter A beats fighter B, because he couldn't beat fighter C (and so on).
Brian Viloria has wins over Hernan Marquez and Giovani Segura but, was beaten by Juan Francisco Estrada, who lost a close contest to Roman Gonzalez. Edgar Sosa beats Segura than turns around and gets knocked off by Yaegashi. Segura versus Marquez could have been fight of the year in 2013.
In the end the fans win, and from the looks of it with such a deep stable of fighters, flyweight is a matchmakers dream or nightmare depending on how you look at it.
My official prediction is Roman Gonzalez by Split Decision on the road in Tokyo, and Juan Francisco Estrada by Unanimous Decision.

TYPE O NEGATIVE Members 'Not Cooperating' In Telling Of PETER STEELE's Story
Jeff Wagner ("Mean Deviation: Four Decades Of Progressive Heavy Metal" book, former Metal Maniacs editor), is currently assembling his next book, "Soul On Fire – The Life And Music Of Peter Steele", about the late TYPE O NEGATIVE and CARNIVORE frontman who passed away on April 14, 2010 from heart failure at the age of 48.
Writing on the book's official Facebook page, Jeff says: "I'm disappointed in the recent decision of the surviving TYPE O NEGATIVE members to not cooperate in the telling of his story. Between January and April, I established contact several times with each of them. Despite e-mails and phone conversations which were cordial and, I thought, positive, they have made this decision for reasons still unclear.
"On the upside, more than 40 people have participated and shared thoughts, emotions and recollections for this project. This includes people verifiably close to Peter — family, close friends, music industry figures, members of FALLOUT, CARNIVORE and session musicians for TYPE O NEGATIVE. This book is being written in tribute to Peter and it is going forward at full steam.
"Josh, Kenny and Johnny have my contact information. The door is always open for them to take part, albeit prior to its release, currently scheduled for October 31st.
"I'd like to believe Peter is having a good laugh at all of us right now."
Steele was born Petrus T. Ratajczyk on January 4, 1962 in Brooklyn, New York. He stood 6′ 7″ (201 cm) tall, and had a low, bass-heavy voice, which was one of the most recognizable features in TYPE O NEGATIVE's music.
Before forming TYPE O NEGATIVE, Steele played for the metal group FALLOUT and the thrash band CARNIVORE.
"Going through a midlife crisis and having many things change very quickly made me realize my mortality," Steele told Decibel magazine in 2007. "And when you start to think about death, you start to think about what's after it. And then you start hoping there is a God. For me, it's a frightening thought to go nowhere. I also can't believe that people like Stalin and Hitler are gonna go to the same place as Mother Teresa."
Wagner is a music connoisseur and metal historian, and a former editor of Metal Maniacs magazine. He has penned incisive liner notes for releases by EMPEROR, POSSESSED, DARK ANGEL, CONFESSOR and others. A music industry professional since 1994 and a lifelong music obsessive, Wagner lives for what he writes about and writes about what he lives.

If you've tried Blogger, but think WordPress might better suit your needs, why not move your blog to WordPress? It's easy to do. Below are step by step instructions for two different methods to import your blog. I've also included some things that you might run into, so you won't be caught off guard after making the transfer.
If you want to get all the information up front and know what to expect afterwards, check out Troubleshooting the Move From Blogger to WordPress.
The first method is built in to WordPress.com. I did not use that import method for mine, so I won't discuss it much. But if you want to try that method, the steps are below.
Note: Either method implies that you have set up an account on WordPress.com already. If you need to create an account, go here.
Don't worry, I'll be here when you get back.
Option 1 – Use the Import Script in WordPress.com
- Login to WordPress.
- You should see a little toolbar at the top of your screen that says "Me", "Blogs", "Info", "Follow", etc. Click "Blogs".
- Choose your blog, then click "Dashboard".
- From here, you'll see a long sidebar menu, including "Dashboard", "Media", "Links", etc – find and click "Tools".
- Under "Tools" click "Import".
- Click "Authorize".
- Grant WordPress access to your Google/Blogger account.
- I didn't personally get to this step, but you should be shown a list of your Blogger blogs and should be able to choose one to import.
The way I did it involves another click or two but it has its benefits. =)
Option 2 – Export Your Blog from Blogger and Import into WordPress
First things first, you need to save your blog.
- Login to Blogger.
- Click "Settings" from your Dashboard.
- Click "Basic".
- Click "Export Blog".
This will save an XML copy of your entire blog. Make sure to save it somewhere you can find it.
Before you take any further steps, review the XML file. Make sure everything is there! (See below.)
This file serves as a backup of your full blog (template, widgets, posts, pages, etc) and also works for setting up your new blog on WordPress.
Go back to the steps for Option 1. This time, we'll start with step 5 – you should be on the "Tools > Import" screen.
- From this screen, scroll down to "Have a Blogger export file?"
- Click "Browse" and locate your saved blog XML file.
- Click "Upload file and import"
This method is just as easy, but either way should work fine.
When you have everything loaded on your new WordPress blog, check out the Themes and pick something nice. WordPress even lets you preview your blog with the new theme, not just some generic sample blog.
Be sure to check out all the other widgets too! WordPress gives you lots of options for your blog and your posts.
Next, you'll want to know what you'll be up against after the transfer. WordPress makes it easy, but it's not infallible! If you think you're ready to make the move, first read up on some problems you may encounter during the transition and after the move.
If you had a really simple blog and/or didn't use a lot of features… or if you're just feeling adventurous, you may want to skip ahead.

The number of organisations in New Zealand that have deployed an Internet of Things (IoT) solution soared from 13.7 per cent in 2016 to 25.7 per cent in 2017, almost doubling over the span of one year, according to the latest annual Internet of Things Decision Maker Report from IDC New Zealand.
The report revealed that New Zealand organisations implementing IoT solutions are more influenced by opportunities to improve customer experience than to improve internal processes. In fact, New Zealand organisations were found to place more emphasis on the customer as an IoT driver than any other country surveyed across Asia Pacific.
"New Zealand organisations are understanding that the value of the Internet of Things is in the data it produces and, more importantly, what that data enables companies to act upon or improve," said Monica Collier, research manager, telecommunications, IDC New Zealand.
Increasingly, IoT solutions are making good business sense. "The New Zealand IoT Alliance research says that IoT could bring NZ$2.2 billion of benefit to the New Zealand economy over the next 10 years," said Collier, adding that as costs continue to decrease and connectivity options to increase, it is becoming easier to get approval for IoT business cases.
Low Power WAN is gaining popularity quickly, although wi-fi is still the most popular IoT connectivity for the moment. Low Power WAN enables organisations to deploy long-life, battery-operated sensor devices, such as water meters and remote asset tracking systems, in remote locations.
Opportunities for harnessing IoT are surfacing across multiple industries from manufacturing to retail to healthcare. For example, on the manufacturing front, Australia leads APEJ for asset performance tracking and 21 per cent of NZ manufacturers have already implemented an IoT solution. On the vendor side, Rockwell Automation, Google, IBM and Dell are all performing well in terms of IoT mindshare in New Zealand, according to the report.
"We would encourage tech buyers to ensure their IoT plans are not siloed; the plans should fit within their overall digital roadmap. For vendors, to step ahead you'll need a good IoT partner ecosystem in context with the industries you are servicing. Customers want a technology partner that understands their business as well as their technology," said Collier.

Gender Dimension of Food Security in India: Issues, Challenges and Solutions
Tanya Gandhi, Maharshi Dayanand University
Food security is a critical issue for developing economies that is being addressed at International and National level. Despite all efforts, the socially and economically dependent class of females in rural India are still deprived of equal access to food & nutrition as compared to males. The inferior status of women in Indian society is being reflected in their status of nourishment and food availability. This issue of individual level disparity in households regarding access to food is often ignored. This paper attempts to explore the challenges against food security of women and ways to raise their level of food consumption and nutrition through different modes of women empowerment and offers certain suggestions and policy implications in this regard. The results suggest that in case of poorest of the poor and also the population having limited resources, the preference is given to adult males and male children of the household.

Last weekend, I spent a sunny afternoon in Oxford. I have always wanted to visit this historical place, and with my cousin now studying down there, it seemed to be the perfect excuse.
I booked my ticket about 1.5 weeks in advance and they were £21 return. I used the website Trainline.com which allows you to pick from a variety of stations in London to go from. I recommend booking your ticket as early as possible for the cheapest prices, and downloading the app to avoid having to print off tickets and booking references.
The journey takes an hour in total. I would advise getting on the train about 20 minutes in advance to ensure you get a seat, as they can get quite busy.
Once you get down there, the university is only about a 10 minute walk from the station. The grounds are simply magical. We were also blessed with the weather, so that definitely helped. If you can get someone you know down there to show you around then that is definitely an added bonus, as there are lots of hidden gems behind the scenes.
One thing to be conscious of is that certain parts of the university have visiting hours, because there are students living there. Some areas of the campus will only allow you in if you are with a student, other parts will only let you in during the hours of 2pm and 4/5pm.
For lunch, we went to a pub called the Turf Tavern. This pub/restaurant was lovely and secluded and had a great outdoor area to have drinks and food. The service was also super quick!
There is also the Oxford Museum of Natural History, that is worth a visit, filled with all types of artefacts from around the world. Housed in a stunning example of neo-Gothic architecture, it holds the University's internationally significant collections of geological and zoological specimens. It is particularly interesting for kids.
We made the whole visit a day trip, and came back up to London that evening. However, you could definitely make a weekend out of it and stay in a hotel/air bnb.

June silence, lake blue as noon.
Valley, mountains, trees and loon.
Fields full of wild purple glory,
Bright giving, Mother Earth's story.
Clouds afloat like dreams,
Lazy drifting picture scenes.
Hazy horizons, horizontal bliss.
Soul feast of earth-sky kiss.

This year, we have had more than normal amounts of rain and cooler weather, so not much like late spring or early summer here.

A Missouri baby born without a skull has defied all expectations and has lived to celebrate his first birthday. This bright news comes despite the young Masterson being born with a rare condition that usually offers up a prognosis of severely curtailed longevity, with most subjects living just a few months.
As KTTS-TV reports, Jessica Masterson was 27 weeks pregnant when she learned that her baby, then in utero, would be born with alcalvaria. The extremely rare condition causes the baby to develop in the womb without a skull. Those born with the malformation rarely live more than a few months.
Doctors offered Masterson and her husband, Tom, the opportunity to terminate her pregnancy, Tom says via the Mirror.
"[The doctors said] he won't be compatible with life. He will not survive this."
The Mastersons, however, wouldn't hear of terminating Jessica's pregnancy. They opted to see her pregnancy through, and to let their faith take care of the rest.
On September 13, 2017, Jessica went into labor. A team at Springfield's Mercy Hospital was convened — a team which included counselors to help prepare Jessica for the worst. However, against all odds, Owen Masterson survived his birth.
"He was crying. We were very, very excited to hear that."
Still, the family had gone into the hospital that day expecting to only have a few hours, if not minutes, with their son — even saying their goodbyes to him when they had the chance. But the minutes turned to hours, and the hours turned to days — and it was obvious that the resilient young lad would, at the very least, survive his birth.
In fact, the boy defied all odds and has just celebrated his first birthday.
Even though he has beaten the odds and has lived to see his first birthday party, the outlook is far from rosy for Owen. He still has alcalvaria, and he always will. That means that he will live for the rest of his life without a skull above his ears, leaving his eyes and brain with little protection.
"It's definitely challenging, but I wouldn't change him. I love him the way he is."
Meanwhile, hospice nurses are providing occupational and physical therapy to the young boy. His parents believe he can see, somewhat, and believe that he can hear as well. They say that he smiles, laughs, and even mimics voices.
Alcalvaria affects less than one in 100,000 births, according to Orphanet.

Roasted Sparrow
John's been feeling dissatisfied with the local fare due to his vegetarian diet (basically he's been unable to fill up on the local veggies), so we've been to the local KFC (potatoes) and Pizza hut yesterday and today.
Obviously, one does not travel to the other side of the planet to eat at the same restaurants you find at home, so John, feeling a bit guilty, I guess, volunteered to go to the place we'd rejected the night before. It's an open air establishment across the street from our hotel in Can Tho.
The menu has all sorts of exotic dishes like frogs' legs, turtles, goat, turtle dove, pigeon and sparrows.
Roasted sparrows jumped out at me immediately. I imagined several tiny breasts on a plate. For $3.20, I had to try it.
I was wrong. Very wrong. It's not easy to see, but there are ten roasted sparrows on that plate. Head and all. All that's missing are the feet and feathers.
Herr Steil, technofail that he is, shot the above video in portrait mode.
So I only ate five and not the heads. John ordered steak french fries knowing there'd be a chance that he'd be served steak and french fries rather than steak fries. So I ate a good portion of the steak, too.
Not that I would have eaten all the sparrows. They're not great. Kind of taste like crunchy liver. I'm guessing they don't dress the birds before they roast them. No, of course they don't. They're tiny!
River Food
So I like to try foods from the street vendors, "street food," but haven't had anything from a river vendor. That changed today.
John and I took a boat tour of one of Can Tho's floating markets. We had sweet hot coffee from a floating beverage vendor. Very similar to what we had at the shop next to our hotel.
Later on during the tour we crossed paths with a woman selling sandwiches from her boat. By the way, there's plenty of good bread, baguettes, etc. to be had in Vietnam, which I found pretty surprising.
She had some mystery meat on skewers in a bowl. I asked what it was, "barbecue" she said. Hmm. Well, the baguettes looked great so I bought a sandwich and hoped for the best. She garnished it with shredded carrots, basil, chili sauce and another vegetable I didn't recognize.
I never did recognize the meat, but am guessing it was pork. The sandwich was delicious and cost lest than a buck (20,000 VD). It was obvious from her expression and disposition that she'd deeply gouged me and was happy about it. The kickback to our boat operator wasn't hidden. Makes me wonder how much these people live on when a dollar has room for a kickback.
The basil was a nice addition.
The traffic in Saigon is pretty nuts. As I mentioned in an earlier post many motorbike riders will drive up onto the sidewalk for a bit and then back into the street in an effort to get around a slow driver or other obstacle.
At uncontrolled intersections (and you'd be surprised at home many seemingly big intersections are uncontrolled) the traffic simply interweaves in all directions. If you want to cross the street at one of these intersections do so slowly, but deliberately, while watching the traffic. Riders and drivers will go around you. Don't try to avoid them, let them avoid you. It seems crazy, but it works.
The Vietnamese drink a lot of coffee. It's a not too widely known fact that Vietnam is the second largest exporter of coffee behind Brazil and many think is poised to take the number one spot. So there's a lot of coffee here.
This morning, John and I stopped by the small shop next to our hotel for a quick coffee. The proprietor spoke no English, but managed to communicate black coffee and coffee with milk. Mine was with milk, John's black.
His came in a small cup, like espresso, mine was in a small juice glass, in a hot water bath. The coffee is very strong and sweet and the milk is sweet and condensed. 15,000 VD for the two cups, so about $0.70. Good deal.
Saigon is dense. How dense? I was across the street from my hotel, literally across the street, and I could not find it. Had my phone out and it was telling me I was right where it was, but I still couldn't see it. Steil had to come out and show it to me. Yes I was operating on four hours of sleep after 28 hours of no sleep, so I was cloudy, but still!
If you see the vertical sign towards the middle of the photograph above, left side of the street, saying "HALO HOTEL" you've found my hotel.
Storefronts are narrow, maybe 15 feet or so wide. The sidewalks are packed with motor scooters and bicycles and people selling their wares from baskets and carts. You frequently have to step into the roadway as you walk down a street because there simply isn't space on the sidewalk. In fact, when there is room on the sidewalk, expect to make way for motorcyclists who have jumped the curb to avoid an obstacle in the road (especially during rush hour).
It's a bit disconcerting to hear people honking behind you as you walk down the sidewalk wanting you to step aside so they can drive past.
Tao Dan Park Birds
I went to bed at about 1:30 am after arriving in Saigon. I woke up four hours later and at about 6 am decided I wasn't going to fall back asleep so I headed over to Tao Dan Park to see the birds. I'd read local bird owners bring their pets to the park for fresh air. Kind of interesting.
In Can Tho
It's Sunday and I'm in Can Tho in the Mekong Delta in Vietnam.
The flight to Saigon was hellish. In retrospect, booking a seven hour flight two hours after a 13 and a half hour flight was not a brilliant idea. My butt, four days later, is still sore! I thought it would be my back, but it's my butt. I'm old.
I arrived in Saigon about 11:20 pm. Went through customs easily. Bought 3,000,000 dong (about $150, BTW, I love the unfortunately named Vietnamese Dong, it makes for endless adolescent jokes at Herr. Steil's expense) from an ATM and walked out of the terminal where there were probably a couple thousand people waiting to greet arriving passengers. Very strange. Four thousand eyes on me as I exited the terminal. I felt like a star. (I thought maybe there was something going on, but now I think this is just the norm.)
That's probably the defining characteristic, in my mind, of Saigon. There are masses of people everywhere. That was certainly true of India as well, but Vietnam feels altogether different. Much more affluent. Vietnam is not a rich country, but it also doesn't feel like a poor country. Very few beggars. In India it seemed we were constantly harassed by beggars. Here you're much more likely to be harassed by vendors, though it isn't oppressive. They give up fairly easily if you politely decline.
This morning we went to the floating market. Tomorrow to Ha Tien.
Buying my Tortuga carry-on backpack is proving to have been a great idea. I love skipping the whole checked bag thing and its size forces you to focus on what's important and jettison the rest. Despite its carry-on size, it fits a ton. I love it.

Hope turns to despair seven years after Tunisian revolt
By AFP - Jan 14,2018 - Last updated at Jan 14,2018
Tunisian workers shout slogans against the government in front of the Tunisian General Labour Union headquarters in Tunis, as they mark the seventh anniversary since the uprising that launched the Arab Spring, on Sunday (AFP photo)
TUNIS — Seven years since the Tunisian revolution that ignited the Arab Spring uprisings, 38-year-old Walid has no job and says people are even hungrier than they were under dictatorship.
Anger over poverty and unemployment erupted into protests and clashes this week that have led to hundreds of arrests ahead of Sunday's anniversary of the overthrow of dictator Zine Al Abidine Ben Ali.
"It's been seven years and we've seen nothing happen. We've had freedom, it's true, but we're more hungry than before," Walid said in Tebourba near the capital Tunis.
Desperation over police harassment and unemployment drove a Tunisian street vendor to set himself on fire on December 17, 2010 in a town in the country's neglected interior.
Mohamed Bouazizi, a 26-year-old university graduate who eked out a living selling fruit, died weeks later, fuelling social unrest that spread across much of the Arab world.
Following a wave of protests, Ben Ali resigned on January 14, 2011 after 23 years in power.
He fled to Saudi Arabia, becoming the first leader to stand down in the Arab Spring.
Compared to other countries rocked by uprisings such as Libya and Yemen which are still deep in turmoil, Tunisia has been praised for its steps towards democracy.
A new constitution was adopted and legislative and presidential polls held in 2014.
But disillusion remains rife.
The country has "the same economic model, with the same problems" as before, the president of the Tunisian Forum for Economic and Social Rights, Messaoud Romdhani, told AFP.
"So the situation keeps getting worse."
In a report released last month, the group warned that despite democratic advances, "unemployment, misery and social and regional inequalities have worsened".
Tunisia has been convulsed by sometimes-violent demonstrations since Monday in which youths throwing stones and Molotov cocktails have clashed with security forces who responded with tear gas.
Dozens of people have been injured and more than 800 arrested on charges including theft, looting and arson.
One protester died on Monday night in Tebourba though police have insisted they did not kill him.
'Potential for resistance'
In the latest protest, hundreds of Tunisians took to the streets of Tunis and the coastal city of Sfax on Friday, waving yellow cards and demanding that the government reverse austerity measures.
The demonstrations "reveal an anger carried by the same people who mobilised in 2011 and obtained nothing in terms of economic and social rights", said political scientist Olfa Lamloum.
The trigger of the new protests was a finance law imposing tax hikes after a year of rising prices.
The Tunisian economy has never recovered from the instability that followed the revolution.
The key tourism sector was dealt another crushing blow by terrorist attacks that shook the country in 2015 including the beachside massacre of 38 foreign holidaymakers.
The government was forced to turn to the International Monetary Fund which lent Tunisia $2.9 billion in 2016 on condition that it reduced its budget and trade deficits.
Youth unemployment remains above 35 per cent according to the International Labour Organisation.
Every year since 2011, 10,000 children have dropped out of primary school and 100,000 young people have left college or high school without diplomas, says the Tunisian Forum for Economic and Social Rights.
In a sign of growing disenchantment, illegal emigration reached the highest level since 2011 in the autumn.
Municipal polls seen as the final stage in Tunisia's transition to democracy have been delayed until May, while fresh legislative and presidential elections are planned for 2019.
But the democratic steps have not extinguished the revolutionary fervour altogether.
"The potential for resistance is still there," Lamloum said. "Young people still have the same dream for Tunisia even if it will take time."

However, Robotnik tricked Willie into taking a flight on an aircraft and stranded him in the Scorchio Zone desert. Willie decided to give up comedy. When Tails arrived to carry him out of the desert, they were attacked by an advanced Sandworm Badnik. Willie distracted the Badnik by telling it a joke, giving Tails a chance to destroy it. Willie realized that he couldn't give up telling jokes, and resumed his gig at the Comedy Club back home.[1]
When the bank robber Claws escaped from prison and headed into the Polarzone, Tails recruited Willie Waddle to help him. After Claws believed that Tails had been defeated for good, tied up on a melting ice floe, Claws revealed where he had hidden the cash he'd stolen. After this, Willie freed Tails underwater, allowing the fox to surface and take Claws down. Willie bombarded Claws with cold-themed puns until Claws was taken away by the police.[2]

First Amendment procedure
Sarah Palin sued The New York Times for defamation over a June editorial (following the congressional ballgame shooting) that linked Palin's rhetoric to the 2011 Gabby Giffords shootings. Palin alleges The Times writers acted with actual malice, in part because the paper had published numerous news stories showing there was no link between Palin's rhetoric and Jared Loughner. The Times moved to dismiss, arguing that the complain did not plausibly plead actual malice. In a brief order yesterday, Judge Rakoff ordered the author(s) of the editorial to appear at an evidentiary hearing next week, for questioning about their awareness of these prior news stories.
The prevailing view among civ professors online seems to be that the order is inappropriate.The point of Twiqbal is that a plaintiff must plead sufficient facts, without the benefit of discovery, to allow a reasonable/plausible inference of the elements of a claim. If the plaintiff cannot do that, the complaint must be dismissed and, perhaps, the plaintiff given a chance to replead. That is a problem for facts such as actual malice, that go to the defendant's state of mind, but that is the regime the Court has set-up. The court has discretion to convert a motion to dismiss to a motion for summary judgment if matters beyond the complaint (such as testimony) are considered. But Judge Rakoff did not do that here. He is using this testimony, not including in the complaint, to rule on a 12(b)(6). Unless, of course, he converts later, although conversion must include notice and an opportunity to present material, which might require an opportunity to take discovery.
This case somewhat illustrates the problems with the Twiqbal regime. Courts are supposed to decide plausibility based on "judicial experience and common sense," which essentially requires a form of judicial notice. We might understand Rakoff as trying to enhance his experience and common sense, one of many work-arounds courts have developed. But the point of Twiqbal is to keep defendants from having to deal with any discovery, even a few hours of testimony. Rakoff seems to be trying to have it both ways--get enough information to evaluate the factual assertions, without deeming the complaint sufficient (which it seems to be) and allowing the case to move forward to full (or at least sectioned) discovery. To the extent Rakoff is doing something necessary to make an intelligent plausibility determination, it reveals the problem and impossibility of implementing such a standard at the pleading stage.
This offers a nice example of when a party might be tempted to use a writ of mandamus to challenge an interlocutory order. Mandamus is limited to exceptional circumstances in which the trial court clearly overstepped its bounds. Ordering discovery before deciding a motion that is designed to keep cases out of discovery might qualify. The drawback, as someone pointed out, is that a mandamus requires The Times to formally sue Judge Rakoff (or the Southern District), who will preside over this litigation; a party's reluctance to wield this tool is understandable.
Alexi Lahav has a new paper describing how courts disregard the FRCP's procedural design (complaint/dismissal/discovery/summary judgment), but moving pieces and skipping steps. This seems another example.

Rule 43(c) is in the title on trials, but is that enough to conclude that it only applies in the course of a trial? My understanding is that neither side has objected to the hearing.
Posted by: Reynolds Holding | Aug 15, 2017 11:09:43 AM
Anon: I think a Rule 43(c) hearing would be permissible on summary judgment. The point of the rule is that evidence can be presented to the judge for a motion through affidavits, depositions, or testimony--so long as the court does not find facts or make credibility determinations off the evidence she hears, this is OK. But you are right that the court's reliance on that rule to justify this hearing was inappropriate. A court only should take evidence this way on a motion in which such additional evidence (in this case, beyond the allegations in the complaint) is properly used.
Posted by: Howard Wasserman | Aug 12, 2017 11:01:19 AM
The judge referenced FRCP 43(c). That's a rule of procedure for trial not for a motion to dismiss. Even conversion of the motion to one for summary judgment, taking testimony would be improper. That would essentially put the judge in the position of fact finder. That would pretty much guarantee reversal on appeal.

LOS ANGELES — A film on menstruation, set in rural India, titled "Period. End of Sentence," has earned a nomination in the Documentary Short Subject category for the 91st Academy Awards.
Award-winning filmmaker Rayka Zehtabchi has directed the short film, which has been produced by Guneet Monga's Sikhya Entertainment.
Monga posted on Twitter following the Oscar nominations announcement on Tuesday:
The film came to being as a part of The Pad Project, started by students at the Oakwood School in Los Angeles and their teacher, Melissa Berton.
The documentary feature is set in Hapur village outside Delhi, where women lead a quiet revolution as they fight against the deeply rooted stigma of menstruation. For generations, these women did not have access to sanitary pads, which lead to health issues and girls dropping out from schools.
When a sanitary pad vending machine is installed in the village, the women learn to manufacture and market their own pads, empowering their community. They name their brand "FLY".
Other documentary shorts to have made it to the final list are Black Sheep, End Game, Lifeboat and A Night at the Garden.

'Designing Free-Space and Curating Free Time' at the Design Talks Programme
Presented by Therme Group, this talk on 6 December at 4pm stimulates conversation on contemporary design production by discussing the ever-evaporating concept of "free time" as technology, artificial intelligence, medical progress and demographics evolve. Speakers from the fields of art, galleries and curating, including Michaela de Pury, Simon de Pury, Studio Drift artists Ralph Nauta and Lonneke Gordijn, Marc Glimcher, Robert C Hanea, Roth and Studio Swine will convene to tackle how art and design can create new infrastructure for and help rethink the blurred boundaries between work and leisure in a post-industrial age.
Harry Nuriev's The Office at the Curio Programme
The Curio programme debuted in 2014 and has since become a hot spot for experimental and innovative projects, including MIT's Self-Assembly Lab in 2017. This year, 11 gallery, brands and designers are showcasing small-scale, immersive installations that engage traditional methodologies while drawing from cultural heritage. Of note is Harry Nuriev's The Office, a playful, universal take on his prior career as a clerk in a small Russian office. Comical and sentimental, Nuriev transforms a chair, desk, hanger, printer and wallpaper, defying and subverting the conventional – and fully familiar – circumstances of mundane, window-less office life.
Kasmin, New York, at the Galleries Sector
While the 2018 edition presents 33 galleries from 12 countries interpret themes like the reinvention of industrial materials and immersive environments – a major highlight since it's New York design gallery Kasmin's first booth. The gallery will showcase a black-and-white backdrop that spotlights never-before-exhibited works of Paris-based Swiss designer Mattia Bonetti. Bonetti's furniture is a unique fusion of the intricate craftsmanship of 17th-century architecture and sculpture that meets early 20th-century Surrealist painting, and for an extra twist, is executed with the latest, most cutting-edge methods such as 3D printing and robotics.
Design Miami/ Visionary Award Winners Installation
Design Miami/ celebrates Latin American design this year, and Pedro Reyes and Carla Fernández, recipients of the 2018 accolade that champions designers who have tangibly and sustainably impacted the world, will exhibit a concise retrospective in a curved steel wall booth. Their work tackles urgent contemporary concerns including immigration, gun control and the planned obsolescence that has occurred as human interaction makes way for digital advancement. Keep an eye out for Reyes' three-legged Metate chairs, inspired by and made with the same methods as pre-Colombian artefacts; Disarm (2008), where he has created musical instruments out of destroyed firearms; and collaborative works between the duo including a map listing the 300 original settlements on the continental Americas prior to the conquest.
The Future is Limitless Installation by Lexus x Design Miami/
Lexus, which recently announced its official automotive partnership with Design Miami/ 2018, will exhibit its pioneering LF-1 Limitless Future Concept Vehicle within the installation The Future is Limitless. The concept, a popular import from Cavallerizze—Museo della Scienza/Tecnologia Leonardo da Vinci in Milan, will feature the future vision of Lexus vehicles alongside a special mixed reality presentation. Japanese architect Socha Ichikawa of doubleNegatives Architecture/hclab (dNA) will present the evolution of the projection mapping. Believing that the innate potential of architecture is limited only by conventional methods of mapping space, Ichikawa has programmed computers to interpret space from an omni-directional perspective, thus freeing the imagination to explore and manifest new dimensions.
Design Miami/ runs 5-9 December adjacent to the Miami Beach Convention Center, Miami Beach, Florida. Miami2018.designmiami.com

Federal Class Action Settlement Moving Through the Courts
The judge overseeing the federal class action lawsuit in the Dr. George Tyndall case recently issued an order that moves the proposed $215 million settlement one step closer to approval.
An order issued on April 18 states that the judge "takes no issue with the substantive terms of the settlement between Plaintiffs and Defendants." He also asked the parties to provide some additional information. It is common for a judge to ask for clarifications, additional details or structural modifications to a class action settlement proposal.
The parties will address the judge's comments in the coming weeks. The settlement remains on track.
"[T]he Court believes that the proposed settlement, as is, ultimately may be fair and reasonable under the prevailing standards," the order states. "The Court raises these points in its effort to seek analytical clarity and in order to satisfy its burden to determine whether to give notice of the proposed settlement to the class… {A}nd the Court aims to ensure that the parties' agreement does not present any undisclosed or unaddressed concerns that could impair the settlement process after preliminary approval."
The proposed class action settlement, announced last October, would provide $215 million to compensate students who received women's health services from Tyndall at USC's student health center.
The university continues to believe that the federal class action settlement is the best way to bring a fair and respectful resolution to as many former patients as possible. This settlement is designed to provide relief in a manner that respects the dignity and privacy of all women impacted by this experience. It allows them to receive compensation without the difficulty or uncertainty of a public trial, regardless of when their visits occurred.

Most Common Water Treatment
A lot of people either do not know or understand what Water Treatment equipment they have and what each systems purpose is. The two systems most commonly installed are an Acid Neutralizer and a Water Softener.
A Neutralizer and a Softener work together to balance the pH of your water. Most importantly, they remove unwanted contaminants from your water.
The Neutralizer is designed to raise your pH using a food grade calcium, called calcite. As water passes through the unit, it dissolves the calcite and the water becomes neutral. This helps in eliminating corrosion of your plumbing and appliances. However, a Neutralizer can sometimes raise the pH more then the desired amount.
In order to find and maintain that perfect pH balance a Water Softener uses a process called ion exchange. A specific resin is added to the tank that eliminates dissolved minerals such as calcium, iron, magnesium, and manganese. A Softener uses a brine or salt tank to clean the resin.
All of our Neutralizer's and Softener's are installed with Clack Valve Head's that regulate and monitor the amount of water passing through the system, when the Softener needs to backwash (clean the resin) as well as when service is required.

Wash Your Hands
When asked if they'd stay home from work because of cold or flu symptoms, many American workers said no. About 44 percent might go to work despite having a fever, and watch out for the 32 percent who plan on going to work no matter how sick they may be [source: Infection Control Today]. The best way to fight germs at work -- and elsewhere -- is to wash your hands.
Be sure to use proper hand-washing technique. A quick rinse under cold water isn't good enough. Use soap and warm water, and spend at least 15 to 20 seconds washing your hands -- and don't forget to pay close attention to under your nails and wash all the way up to your wrists. When you can't wash your hands, stash a container of hand sanitizer (one that contains at least 60 percent alcohol will get the job done) in your desk.

Man's War With Unwanted Body Hair
