More about Weekly Photo Challege.
Africa itself is an adventure to me so I could say this is an adventure in an adventure. And this adventure I have taken twice! I'm talking about climbing to Sibebe. It's the second biggest solid rock after Uluru (Ayers Rock). Unfortunatelyit dosen't look as astonishing as Uluru because it's coverd with dirt and rocks. But anyway I have taken the hike up there two times because the view is amazing. It takes two and half hours to climb up and two hours back. This photo is taken half way up. Yeah! Still one hour to go!
Mbabane, Swaziland
This painting-like image I have taken from a backyard of Sibebe View Cottages (a nice little B&B) towards Pine Valley. And this is why I love Africa. This indescribable beauty takes my breath away. The softness of the hills and evening sun. What else I could say?
This community has made the hillside their home.

Mine stopped yesterday at 4 am 10/19
Is the app working?
Please sign in to leave a comment.

my app stopped yesterday 10/19 on two devicesl
does anyone know what happened?
i have the same problem- apps stop working 19.10 and after reinstalation work 2 hours and stop working again
It appears at least on my Samsung S8 that the program is being detected as Harmful and the Android OS is stopping the program. I have reinstalled the program 3 times and it works for about a day and then something stops it. I have Play Protect disabled, but if you go to Play Store then to Play Protect is where I see that it is a harmful app and the only option is to uninstall it. I have to reinstall at that point. I don't know if my child is notified or not, she says she isn't, but she is a teen so who knows.
Does anyone know how to stop whatever scan is catching this? I have also opened a ticket with support.
Hello, it's working for me;
i have samsung galaxy s8;
follow the steps:
settings - apps - (three dots on top)
- special access - change system settings
- Google Play services - disable
then reset the phone
let me know if it helped
I have had the same problem for 2 weeks, after the last update I was hoping that the application will send logs, but it does not send when it exits the application, no reports come, as I reinstalled it was only screenshots came from when I co-configured applications on the device since nothing more. And subscription days are running away, unfortunately at our expense.
My dashboard is showing my TARGET phone contacts but everything else is saying no activity when I know my husband is on his phone EVERY DAY CAN SOMEONE PLEASE HELP ME?
I'm getting a notification saying that the monitoring was disabled via my dashboard. Does anyone know what that means? I just paid from my subscription and I'm not getting any logs
How does this thing work
My app stopped working on the 4th day of trial and i purchased a subscription thinking it was bc the trial had ended... This is ridiculous

The law requires any dog owner to have a collar with an ID tag on it – giving the owners' name, address and phone number.
Best not to put the dogs name on it.
May be a good idea also to put your mobile phone number on it.
From 6th April 2016, any dog over 8 weeks old must be microchipped by law.
This is the insertion of a tiny electronic chip under the skin in the gap between the shoulder blades.
This can be done at any age – and is usually done by your veterinary surgeon.
The microchip contains a number, which can be electronically scanned by many dog wardens, nearly all vets, and some dog's homes, and hopefully should help to reunite you with your pet should it go missing.
It is inserted by the vet via a large sharp needle – but most pups and dogs do not seem to be unduly bothered by this. Once there – it is there for life.
If you move home you must remember to update your address details with the Microchip company.
Any pet who may be applying for a Pet Passport to travel abroad legally and return without the quarantine – must be micro chipped first – so that it can be positively identified.
Some of the microchip companies provide a little collar tag, which you can attach to the pets collar saying that the dog has been microchipped.
Alternatively you may wish to have "scan me" on your pet's name tag.
The actual electronic chips are very small – about the size of a grain of rice.
Another useful security tip – in case your pet ever has the misfortune to be lost or missing is to take good photographs of your pet – showing its markings etc clearly.
Never leave your pet totally unattended outside a shop.
Never travel with your pet unrestrained in the car – either use a dog car harness – or a travel crate securely fitted. Unrestrained dogs in cars can cause terrible accidents and can themselves be killed in the event of an accident.
Sadly dog theft is becoming more common in the UK, so it is not advisable to leave your dog unattended anywhere.
Dogs can, and are stolen from people's own gardens.

Connecticut is no stranger to plane and helicopter tragedies
A Danbury native has been identified as the pilot of a helicopter that crashed in the East River in New York City, killing five people Sunday night.
The Daily News reported that Richard Vance, 33, was the pilot and only survivor of the crash.
Vance told investigators the crash might have been caused by a passenger's bag accidentally hitting the emergency fuel shutoff button, CNN reported.
Tragedy in the skies is unfortunately not new news in Connecticut. There have been a number of small plane crashes, many in the Danbury area where the local airport caters to small, private planes.
This past summer, two crashes in Danbury led U.S. Sen. Richard Blumenthal to call on the federal government to tighten regulations regarding private aviation. But pilots and experts from around Danbury, which saw fatal crashes on July 30 and Aug. 11, said they weren't sure that more regulation is the answer.
"It's an unfortunate and tragic spike, not necessarily a trend," Mike Safranek, assistant administrator of Danbury Municipal Airport told Hearst in September. "I don't think there are more or less if you go back statistically, but when it comes in a spike it may look like more."
Stratford-based Sikorsky has seen misfortune around the globe. In March 2017, a Sikorsky S-92 helicopter crashed during an overnight mission by the Irish Coast Guard to help a fishing vessel requiring a medical evacuation, killing the pilot. In Ireland and the United States, S-92 helicopters have been subjected to intensified inspections, following multiple incidents of pilots reporting loss of control of tail rotors.
In 2016, Connecticut-based Sikorsky Aircraft Corp. agreed to settle wrongful death and negligence claims in a lawsuit filed over the 2014 crash of a Navy helicopter that killed three of the five crew members on a training exercise off the coast of Virginia.
Sikorsky reached a "settlement in principle" with the widows of the three crewmen and a survivor of the crash who filed the lawsuit in federal court in Connecticut last year, according to court documents obtained by The Associated Press.
The MH-53E Sea Dragon helicopter crashed on Jan. 8, 2014, about 18 miles off the coast of Virginia Beach during what the Navy said was routine mine countermeasure training.
In 2004, the families of two men killed in a 2002 helicopter crash off the coast of England filed a wrongful death suit against Sikorsky Aircraft. The suit, filed in U.S. District Court in Bridgeport, saught millions of dollars in damages from Stratford-based Sikorsky and Composite Technology Inc., a Texas company that inspects and tests rotor blades for Sikorsky.
In the court papers, lawyers for the families of Philip Dearden and Mark Wake, who worked as crew members on the Sikorsky S-76 helicopter that crashed in the North Sea, said a flaw in the rotor blade that went undetected in an inspection caused the disaster that killed 11. An initial investigation by authorities in England found that the blade had been hit by lightning in 1999, aggravating the defect, the lawsuit says.
In 2000, Sikorsky and Composite Technology certified the blade as repaired and airworthy. It was then installed on the helicopter operated by Bristow Helicopters that crashed on July 16, 2002.
Additional reporting by various Hearst Newspapers staff.

Low self-esteem and little or no self-worth are characteristic of depressed women. Their mistaken belief that they do not deserve to be happy can lead to a self-fulfilling prophecy. When bad things happen, women may feel guilt for having brought about these unfortunate circumstances. It is illogical to think that people always get what they deserve in life. Therefore, women should not judge their self-worth by their circumstances. Women should remind themselves daily that they deserve to be happy in order to break free from their negative thoughts.

Via Access Copyright
Access Copyright announced today that they have agreed on a model licence with the Association of Community Colleges of Canada (ACCC) that will give community colleges in Canada the ability to copy from over 22 million works from Access Copyright's broad repertoire.
Under the model licence ACCC institutions will pay Access Copyright a royalty of $10.00 per full-time equivalent student (FTE) annually. This royalty includes what used to be a separate 10 cents per page royalty for coursepack copying, so there will no longer be a separate royalty for such copying. Although we have little data regarding digital copying on campuses, historical coursepack usage data indicates that universities copy 2.6 times more than colleges.
"Access Copyright's repertoire consists of published works from thousands of Canadian creators and hundreds of Canadian publishers and countless foreign rightsholders from 28 other countries, making the model licence a great value,"said Maureen Cavan, Executive Director of Access Copyright. "ACCC member institutions can now copy portions of practically every publication that exists in paper form that is not on our exclusions list and reproduce it into digital or print form."
This agreement will be in place until December 31, 2015 and will renew automatically for one-year terms. At the end of the term, either party can also cancel or request to renegotiate the agreement.
A survey methodology will be designed jointly to gather reliable data to allow Access Copyright to make fair distribution of royalties to its affiliates and to assist in establishing appropriate future licence rates. The survey will be designed to minimize the administrative burden on both parties, in particular academic staff and students, and will respect academic freedom, privacy and the obligations of colleges under collective agreements with faculty and staff.

Ayano is the actual playable eighth girl unlocked in the game. She is unlocked after reaching Tenderness 12. You meet her after she kills Generica, your highschool crush, who you originally confessed your love to.
Personality Edit
Ayano is the main character of the game Yandere Simulator. She has a 'yandere' personality trope, which is derived from the Japanese words 'yanderu', meaning 'to be sick' (as in mental illness), and 'deredere', which means 'lovestruck'. Ayano displays the same sadistic and violent behavior towards the other girls in Crush Crush.
Ayano has an unhealthy obsession with you; she will take matters into her own hands in order to get you. She will often bad-mouth other girls you have recently spoken to and try to sabotage your relationship with them. She puts on a facade personality by acting somewhat like a tsundere (A cold-to-loving anime trope) which may be in reference to Yandere Simulator, where Ayano believes a student named Osana Naijimi is 'flirting' with the other senpai by acting this way.
Her yandere behavior is also used comically in the game. For example, while dating her, she is seen using a baseball bat to hit away a pigeon in the forest or eating a crab on the beach. This is the first time Ayano exhibits using her violent tendencies toward animals.
Dialogue List Edit
First Meeting Edit
- With blushing confidence, you approach your high school crush, Generica, and give her a love note confessing your feelings. It works - she has a crush on you too!
- You agree to meet up with her later, under the sakura trees, for a date. As you leave, a cold wind blows, rustling the flower petals...
- Rival for Senpai - CRUSHED! (Stabbed)
- Strangely, Generica does not show up later for your date. After waiting an hour, you accept that she must have not felt the same way about you. As you leave, you bump into another girl..
Adversary Edit
- ...
Sorry Edit
- Senpai! I-I-I-I-I was just walking the same direction you were. I'll stop!
- Oh! H-h-h-hi, Senpai. It sure-sure is weather today. Okay bye.

- I don't see you around school much, Senpai. You must play hooky a lot.

- Hahaha! You're so funny, senpai! You always know what to say to make me laugh.
- Good afternoon, senpai! I made you lunch! Unless you're not hungry, then - boop! Right in the garbage!

- I had a dream last night that everyone I hate became as big as Titans, and I couldn't kill them without getting in trouble.
- I wonder what it's like to have emotions. I mean emoticions. Instead of a face, i guess?
Gift Edit
- This is the most thoughtful thing anyone has ever given me! Actually, no one else has ever given me anything so...
Poke Edit
- You're so funny, Senpai! HA-HA!HA-HA!
Upgrade to Crush Edit
- So, the other day, a certain girl whom I won't name asked me if I had a crush on you. Isn't that crazy?
- I mean, could you imagine? If I had a crush on you. And thought about you all the time. And dreamt about you at night. SO embarrassing.
Crush Edit

Upgrade to Sweetheart Edit

Sweetheart Edit

Flirt Edit

Girlfriend Edit

Poke Edit
- You're so funny, Senpai! HA-HA!HA-HA!
Upgrade to Lover Edit
- Senpai... Do you like me...?
- You noticed me! Oh Senpai, you made me so happy! I love you! I love you! I love!
Lover Edit
- How's my Senpai today? Being amazing as usual?
- I feel like you're my destiny, Senpai. You're the reason I'm alive. The reason for everything.
- I'm so happy! Not even the harsh looks of certain women can get me down today!
- Let's skip class today and lie in bed! I'll make you lunch! We can do whatever you want!
- Oh Senpai! I can't imagine my life without you! You must promise to NEVER leave me!
- You're so dedicated Senpai. Working a dozen jobs just to make others happy.
- (Naked) Thank you for taking away my clothes! You're so thoughtful, Senpai!
- (Naked) I feel so vulnerable naked! No pockets or belts to store a handy screwdriver. You know, for... screwdriving.
- (Naked) Oh dear! I'm so naked! Is this the part of the movie when the slasher comes and finishes me off? *giggle*
Seduce Edit
- Hahaha! A good girlfriend will lie to the police, but a GREAT girlfriend will help you burn the body. Guess which I am!
- Hello Senpai! Every time I feel gloomy, or the chill of overwhelming darkness, I think of you and feel much better!
- Hey, just for conversation, do any of the girls you know have any phobias? Secret weaknesses? I'm just curious!
- I just thought of something romantic we can do! Let's go get our wills done together!
- I love you more than life itself! Please stay with me forever!
- I was thinking about getting a tattoo. Would it be weird if it was of your face?
- I was watching my favorite anime yesterday, and they had a special cameo character. I love cameos!
- I'm going to make you so happy, Senpai. I'll do anything for you. Anything.
- My love will never die. Nothing will kill it. Not even immolation.
- Senpai, you are my heart and soul. My happiness, and conscience. I've been missing you for so long!
- Senpai! You... You noticed me! I'm so happy!
- Today I got scared that I was dreaming. So I pinched my arm until it bled. Nope! not a dream!
- You're such a great dancer! It's probably because it's the hobby you've been doing the longest.
- Hey Senpai! You're looking sharp today. Sharp as a box cutter!
- You're welcome! That's me! Always full of compliments and knife analogies!
- Everyday you're with me, I feel like my entire world is destroyed. I can't believe how lucky I am!
- Never change, Senpai. Stay this way, with me, forever!
- If I pass out, it's because you make my heart race so fast.
- Oh my, the room is spinning... Please put me in the recovery position...
- (Naked) This is all for you, Senpai. You can have every inch of my body.
- (Naked) I've dreamed of this day for so long. Even in my nightmares.
- (Naked) Do you like my body? I can change it, if you want...
- (Naked) Touch me. Feel my heartbeat. It beats for you.
- (Naked) My blood is pumping so hard. If I got cut even a little, it would probably spray everywhere!
- (Naked) You can put a baby inside of me if you want. I mean - we can make love!
- (Naked) I stay in shape with proper cardio and healthy eating. I don't know any other girl I couldn't run down, if I had to!
- (Naked) I'm so happy you get to see me like this. I practiced being naked in front of the mirror.
- (Naked) Would you do me? I'd do me.
Gift Edit
- I can't believe it! You're so generous, you're making me cry. *sob*
- Thank you, Senpai. But you should save your money and spend it on yourself. There's no one as amazing as you!
- Oh thank you, Senpai! I will put this on my shrine - I mean my shelf!
- [School Uniform] Oh Senpai! I love this sooo much! And look at all the... red hair dye spilled on it!
- [Bathing Suit] I'll wear this all the time, Senpai! Even when it rains or snows! I swear!
- [Diamond Ring] Let's be together. Forever.
- [Lingerie] *giggle* Senpai. These are covered in strawberries. Does that mean I'm dessert?
- [Birthday Suit] This is all for you, Senpai. You can have every inch of my body.
- [Holiday Outfit] Oh Senpai! How awkward - I just noticed I'm wearing mistletoe! I guess you'll, umm, have to... You know...
- [Unique Outfit - Bloody Mission] Oh Senpai! Someone tore the beautiful uniform you got me. Though I guess you could finish what they started...
Poke Edit
- Hahaha! I love when you touch me, Senpai!
- Tee hee! You've got such strong hands, Senpai! I bet you could strangle ANYone, if you had to.
- YOU'LL NEVER TAKE ME-Oh, sorry! You surprised me! I thought you were someone else, tee hee!
- (Naked) Yes! Put your hands on me! Choke me a little, if you want!
- (Naked) Oh! You know just the right spot to hit, Senpai. Like a pair of scissors to the Aorta.
- (Naked) Tee hee! I know my laughter sounds a bit forced sometimes, but it's not at all!
- (Naked) Senpai! You scoundrel! Just kidding, you can grab me any time you want!
Date Edit
- Tee hee! I love the night! It's so much easier sneaking up on people in the darkness.
- What a great movie! I'm sure glad nobody talked during it. That makes me SO mad!
- Did you see that pigeon?! They freak me out. I feel like they might take over the world someday...
- I love fresh crab. Especially crabs that see too much. Stuff that's none of their business.
Sex Scene Edit
- She breathes frantically, her heart pounding. She rips your clothes with desperation. Her nails dig until she draws blood. She lies back, and beckons you to take her. And as you have your way, she laughs and cries and screams and moans, but she never blinks...
- Later she stares at you, a dark hunger in her eyes. "Senpai, you make me feel so good..." She licks her lips, and moves closer. "Now we'll be together forever. And I'll make you happy, no matter what I have to do..."
Comments on other girls Edit
Ayano is unique in that sometimes when you click on her panel, she will comment on the girl you had selected beforehand.
- Cassie's ponytails are gorgeous! Let's hope she doesn't get them tangled in a car door and dragged for several miles.
- So Cassie doesn't have health insurance? Oh, I hope she doesn't have another accident!
- Cassie is so... cool. And proof that spray-on tan is as good as the real thing...
- Great news! I heard Cassie is on her meds again, and her last boyfriend is finally out of the hospital!
- Cassie is so fragile. Like a delicate flower. Ready to be plucked...
- I saw you with Cassie. You sure are nice to her. Especially with how she talks behind your back.
- Oh Senpai! You're so kind, dating someone like Mio. Even with all those videos of her online.
- I love video games! But I'm worried Mio might be addicted to them. Has she ever over-reacted to losing a game?
- Have you seen Mio's Twitch stream? She's great! She'd almost be good enough to have one without showing off her tits.
- Did you hear the news about Mio? You haven't? Oh, well I don't want to gossip...
- I played Mio at Get Smashed, and when I beat her, she... Well, nevermind. It's just a small bruise.
- That Mio is so funny. Everytime she tells a joke, I just want to tear my face off, it's so funny.
- Remember Senpai - have your pets spayed or neutered! Especially cats...
- Oh dear! I saw Quill running from an animal control officer. I wonder who keeps tipping them off?
- That Quill is so snuggly. I wish I could make a blanket out of her and just snuggle it all the time.
- Hey Senpai, I was just reading that cats really enjoy lilies! Maybe you should buy some for Quill?
- Did you know that cats are a coprophagic species? I guess that's why we don't kiss them, hey? Hahaha!
- I hope Quill gets over her body dysmorphia. Poor girl - thinking she's actually a cat.
- I heard Elle talking about her narcolepsy. She should be careful - that would be an easy way to drown in a bathtub.
- I heard people with narcolepsy sometimes slip and fall and stab themselves with knives 20 or 30 times. How awful!
- That Elle is so sweet. You just want to squeeze her so hard until she can't get away ever again.
- I hope that Elle gets a handle on her gambling problem soon. That sort of thing can tear relationships apart.
- Poor Elle! Her back must get sore all the time. I guess that's the price of getting enormous implants though.
- Did you hear a rumor that Elle worships the devil? Probably just a messed up rumor.
- It's so sad seeing a girl like Nutaku, imaging what her childhood must have been like. So sad.
- So out of curiousity, how much does a girl like Nutaku charge for... you know.
- Hopefully someday Nutaku can find something other than sex that makes her feel like a better person.
- Oh dear. I shouldn't have looked that Nutaku girl up on a certain website. She's very... Accommodating.
- That Nutaku girl... I mean, talk about Ms. Try-hard, hey?
- Oh, I saw you with Nutaku. You're so kind Senpai! Not many people would associate with someone with her condition!
- Oh my. Iro screamed at me again today. I wonder why she's so angry all the time...
- I thought I heard Iro crying in the bathroom. Something about all the lies she's told. I hope she's okay.
- When Iro gets her new bike, she'd better keep a close eye on the brakes. Now THERE'S an accident you probably wouldn't walk away from.
- It's kind of sad that Iro is such a blatant rip-off of another character. All of her appeal has nothing to do with her.
- Iro is such a great athlete! I bet she was even better before the surgery. You go girl!
- I can't believe that Iro got so mad at you for an honest mistake. Who HASN'T almost killed someone with a weapon, right?
- Bonbon is such a kind girl. But that fake accent is SO annoying, don't you think?
- Hey, I just saw Bonnibel! Did you say something to upset her? She seemed really miffed at you.
- Did you hear about Bonnibel's "secret ingredient"? Apparently the health inspector will be investigating soon...
- Bonnibel is such a sweet girl. And so experienced. I can't even imagine what it would be like to have slept with so many people.
- It must be hard for Bonnibel. Her business is on the rocks, and I guess she can't afford an apron that fits...
- It's so funny when girls wear glasses when they don't need them. It's a bit silly, don't you think?
- So, umm... I heard Fumi might be an assassin... And you're cool with that? You don't mind... murder?
- Fumi is so elegant! I wish I had her poise and confidence. It's too bad she's a fascist, hey?
- Oh Senpai, it's so nice that you date Fumi despite her unusual height. I know most girls like that have trouble getting dates.
- Wow! I jokingly pulled a katana on Fumi and she had a retractable one in her glove. You'd better be polite to her, Senpai!
- Apparently Fumi is from the future? I wonder what sort of strange, futuristic STIs she might have.
- Am I-I-I going crazy? I thought I saw you kissing a bear. I think I'd better lay down...
- I think that bear joke you told was hilarious Senpai! Bears are WAY too sensitive about that stuff.
- So you're dating a bear. That's... That's very cool of you Senpai. Being so open minded. Wow.
- Were you just talking to A BEAR?! Why were you talking to a bear?!
- I was reading about bear traps, and how inhumane they are. Sometimes the bear has to gnaw off their limbs. So sad.
- Did you know that game meat is better for you than farmed? We should go hunting sometime!
- Wow, that Nina sure knows a lot of four letter words. Quite the "rustick charm" she has, hey?
- Hey Senpai! I noticed that Nina was slacking off a bit, so I cleaned your house!
- Oh Senpai, you don't need a personal assistant! You're so organized and neat already!
- That Nina is hilarious! But, I mean, how many racist jokes can you tell before you start coming off as actually racist?
- People shouldn't bitch about their bosses behind their backs, hey? Especially maids.
- I heard Nina might be in the country illegally. I hope no one narks on her.
- It must be weird pretending to kiss Alpha-chan, Senpai. Hopefully you still get the real thing, time to time.
- I hope all those rumors about Alpha aren't true. Those poor kids...
- A.I. kind of freak me out a bit. Like, what if they randomly become violent and attack their friends?
- Oh wow, I love Alpha-chan's music! It'll be sad when people get bored and forget her.
- That Alpha is such a wonder of technology! Her emotions are so life-like, you can't tell that they're fake!
- Do you ever wonder random stuff like - does a hologram bleed? Could you cut it with a holographic knife?
- That Pamu annoys me so much. She keeps asking me if I can get her a date with Yandere-Dev. Who the heck is that??
- That Pamu is really weird, Senpai. She keeps handing me knives and winking at me...
- Pamu complimented me on "my other video game", saying it was awesome. She's so strange.
- Did you see that person dressed as a magical girl? I think she was... molesting a clone of herself?
- I think that Pamu might not be human... She laughs when she's stabbed... I hear.
- Pamu keeps calling me "Yandere-chan". I'm not sure what that means, but she'd better STOP it...
- That Luna sure is testy. I was chopping some onions, and she screamed, "Have at thee!" at me.
- Do you... like Luna, Senpai? She has a picture of you on her dart board. A naked picture.
- I heard that Luna casts protection spells on herself when she sleeps. Sounds like she'd be super hard to kill, hey? Hahaha!
- I saw Luna robbing a caravan. I didn't know caravans were still a thing.
- Luna cast a fireball spell at me, and called me a "hot little number". I'm glad that she likes fire so much...
- I hear Luna is pretty good with a sword. I wonder how she feels about box cutters...
- Can you believe that Eva girl? If she was in a movie series, it would probably be very pretentious and frustrating.
- If Eva is a clone, do you think she might just randomly melt into nothing someday?
- So, Eva drives a Mecha hey? I hear those things can really mess you up and make you prone to violence.
- I saw Eva at school today. She's such a loner. I worry about her sometimes.
- I hope Eva doesn't die in a heroic fashion, saving the world from giant monsters. It would be so sad.
- That connection-suit Eva wears is so ridiculous. They may as well make it transparent, for all that it conceals.
- Did you hear about Karma and her diabetes? Oh no? Oh well, I'm not one for gossip, Senpai...
- Do you get a... vibe from Karma and Sutra? Like a man-hating vibe? I kinda do...
- I had never seen anyone make milkshakes out of butter, until I met Karma. Like, wow!
- Oh dear, that poor Karma girl. It must be so difficult living with an eating disorder...
- People who talk about new agey mumbo jumbo are kind of annoying, hey? Chakras indeed...
- This might sound a bit mean, but... Isn't the thought of a fat yoga instructor sort of ridiculous?
- Eee! Who was that huge man with tiny breasts I saw you talking with???
- I admire Sutra so much. Committing yourself to fitness, no matter what it makes you look like.
- It's a shame that Sutra isn't allowed to compete at the Olympics. Given... You know... Dat juice she's on.
- Oh Senpai, tell me. Do you prefer a girl with manly abs, or just a flat normal tummy? Just curious!
- Sutra is an inspiration for anyone considering making that magical transition from kun to chan.
- Sutra's sword is so spectacular! I wonder if it's as sharp as a katana...
- Senpai, were you just... Flirting with an embodiment of darkness?
- That Darkness Girl stared into my eyes today. But then she seemed to get spooked, and ran away. How strange!
- So you're trying to defeat the Darkness Girl with the power of love? May I suggest a spiked bat?
- That Darkness Girl is so lost and alone. But if she's going to destroy the world, I guess we should kill it.
- If you'd like my help dealing with that Darkness Girl, Senpai, I can grab my box cutter anytime.
- That Darkness Girl was casting shade at me. I don't mind. What with it being your destiny to destroy her.
- I saw you talking to a little fairy, earlier. Assuming I didn't hallucinate her, is she... your little girlfriend?
- I wonder if fairy wings pull of as easily as a fly's... I mean, they're so beautiful and delicate!
- I read Fairies are allergic to kindness, Senpai. They prefer if you make rough with them.
- Oh my, you actually know a fairy! Ha ha ha! HAHAHA! Oh this is the normal one of all, Senpai!
- So you're trying to heal Q-piddy with your love, Senpai? Have you tried hydrogen peroxide?
- I saw Q-Piddy sitting in a circle of mushrooms today. It's so sad when people turn to drugs for help.

Trivia Edit
- The info bar that gives you status updates on relationships, Jobs, and Achievements is slightly inverted for Ayano.
- Example: "Ayano is now pretending to be your Girlfriend!"
- Ayano's icon (In the Girl's List) has been observed to make a psychotic expression at random times (It just lasts for about half a second).
- Ayano will sometimes show her psychotic expression when you pay her a visit (Sweetheart level and above - only last for half a second)
- At Frenemy level and above, switching to Ayano after interacting with another girl will sometimes cause her to make a comment about that other girl (Usually one that is negative or ominous), and vice-versa. She is the only character with this trait.
- NOTE: She only comments on the main girls involved in the story of Crush Crush. The other girls will make comments about her, but she won't have any comments about them.
- There is also a line where she will sometimes say "I saw you talking to a little fairy, earlier. Assuming I didn't hallucinate her, is she... your little girlfriend?" regardless of which girl you had selected last, even when Q-Piddy is not unlocked.
- Many of these dialogues imply Ayano is either planning or has attempted to murder the other girls. This is reflective of how in Yandere Simulator she will dispose of any female showing an interest in her Senpai by any means necessary to keep him for her own love.
- Her favorite food "Apples" may be a reference to the apple in her "Senpai Shrine".
- Her bust size "Varies" is a reference to the "Customization" mechanic in Yandere Simulator.
- Although her birthday is March 31st in Crush Crush, in Yandere Simulator her birthday is April 1st.
- This is likely so that she doesn't have the same birthday with Pamu.
- This could also be a joke on copyright claims.
- Ayano's dialogue about pointless emails is a reference to Yandere Dev and how he repeatedly complained about fans sending him "useless" emails about Yandere Simulator.
- To get Ayano to lover, one must spend $791,241,597,359 in total if you don't use diamonds, which is a steep increase from every girl before her. You also need to get a number of skills to level 60, something no other girl until Pamu requires.
- In Initial Versions when Ayano is into the Game; the Movie theater scene refers to "Here's Johnny" from The Shining.
- Several girls can be seen killed in her movie theater scene.
- Like Bonnibel stabbed on the head with a knife.
- Pamu impaled by an object that is presumed to be a katana (Though Ayano has stated that Pamu does not get injured by knife attacks, but simply laughs)
- Generica's body laying down.
- A mysterious girl that is most likely Cassie, hit with an axe.
- "I was watching my favorite anime yesterday, and they had a special cameo character. I love cameos!" This references her cameo in Crush Crush.
- The Octopus Doll on Ayano's head (In Holiday Suit) was one of the Hair Accessories in Yandere Simulator
- "You're such a great dancer! It's probably because it's the hobby you've been doing the longest." References dancing as your first hobby unlocked.
- Her Lover picture shows a Boxcutter (with the blade out) on the bottom left, hidden~ behind the leaf.
- Ayano is the youngest girl in the game, alongside Eva and Juliet.
- If given a School Uniform to wear, Ayano will be clothed in the first alternate uniform for Akademi High as selectable in the character customization screen of Yandere Simulator.
- If given a Holiday Suit to wear, there is a glitch where Ayano will say the line prior to putting it on instead of her implemented one.
- Ayano's Unique Outfit clothed in the fourth alternate uniform for Akademi High as selectable in the character customization screen of Yandere Simulator OR in Mission Mode.
- Ayano's Bathing Suit clothed in the Pool Swimsuit for Akademi High in the locker room.
- Ayano is the Main Character for Don't Notice Me, Senpai event.
- After Sightseeing with Ayano, she says that she is afraid pigeons might take over the world, in reference to Hatoful Boyfriend.
- Ayano doesn't have any dialogue with any girls past Q-Piddy (i.e. Darya, Charlotte, etc).
- For all her flaws, Ayano is the only one to offer to help you confront the Dark One -- and the only being known to have ever frightened the Dark One, unless Ayano was lying about that the way she lies about all the other girls.
- In her "Friendship photo" the flowers from behind are "Mañjusaka" (In Chinese and Japanese) or "Lycoris" (In English), these flowers were used in Chinese and Japanese legends about two cursed lovers that can't meet each other. They're associated with death, life, hell, and funerals.

What we learnt from taking an app through compliance & CE Marking
We launched an app that carries the CE Mark and conforms to the EU Medical Device Directive 2007/47 EC for Rosemont Pharmaceuticals who are now registered as a Class 1 device manufacturer. The MHRA have recently released guidance on what constitutes a medical device for apps but this guidance was unavailable when we took this client through the process and this is what we learned.
Understanding the directive
I can't remember the number of times I read this document picking out key details that were relevant to the development of standalone software. Although there was nothing directly relating to apps there are clear references to how software combined with, or independent of a device should be classified and therefore the level of compliance that needs to be achieved.
Understanding if your app would fall into the category of a medical device
The MHRA recently released their guidance on medical device stand-alone software (including apps)7 and it helps to clarify which types of apps should be classified as medical devices. It still requires developers to understand the implications of the EU Medical Device Directive but helps to identify through the use of words and phrases which apps could be classed as medical devices.
"Decision support or decision making software that applies some form of automated reasoning, such as a simple calculation, a decision support algorithm or a more complex series of calculations, eg dose calculations, symptom tracking, clinicians guides. These are the types of software most likely to fall within the scope of the medical devices directives."
Testing and risk assessment
A rule of thumb for understanding if your app needs to be compliant is if the results produced by using the app could potentially harm a patient e.g. a dosage calculator then it should undergo the necessary compliance procedures to ensure it complies with the EU Medical Device Directive. Part of this process is to thoroughly test the app across different devices, platforms, audiences and specific functionality built in to it to demonstrate that it works as it should, producing expected results. This will form part of the risk analysis necessary for completing the document of conformity.
The registration
Once this process has been completed the application can be made to the MHRA which requires an accompanying payment of £70.00 (as of the date of writing this 15/04/2014). The application should take between 14 and 21 day to process at which point the company will receive their registration number and only after that point can the app carry the 'CE' mark to prove that it has full regulatory backing and will demonstrate that the app reaches all the necessary standards laid out by the EU.
App store submissions
To ensure you get submissions approved quickly, it's really important to submit the app to iTunes Connect under the correct developer account ensuring all your meta data is completed as fully as possible and providing any references that you feel reviewers will benefit from seeing. Tripping the 'reject' status can lead to weeks of delays and once that's happened it appears that Apple will scrutinise each further submission with a fine tooth comb. Google Play is far simpler by comparison and will take far less time to submit and approve before publishing.

City Junior B Football final, 16/9/03
Mungret 2-13 Milford 1-7
Séamus Hayes's second goal, eight minutes from the end of last evening's final, returned the Eamon Cosgrave Cup for the City junior B football championship to Mungret after an absence of five years. Collecting the ball on the overlap in a break from a long spell of pressure and flicking over the advancing Kevin Keenan, he broke the back of Milford's revival and allowed his side to pick off the closing scores for a deserved if flattering victory.
Although the winners hit nineteen wides on the night and could have had the result tied up earlier had they taken their chances, it was only in the closing minutes that they were able to shake of opponents who were appearing in their first ever final just eighteen months after entering adult competition.
Mungret were off the mark within a minute through Paul McGrath but, despite wind advantage, failed to build on early dominance and missed a number of easy chances. Milford settled to take the lead by the quarter mark through Cathal Geraghty and Tony Connolly's free but, following John van Veen's equaliser, Hayes's mishit shot curled into the corner of Keenan's net and Michael South added a free immediately afterwards.
Milford kept in touch through a pair of Connolly frees before McGrath's looping shot from the left sideline brought Mungret's half-time lead to 1-4 to 0-4.
Mark Tobin from a free and from play, Barry O Grady and South widened the gap quickly after the break but Connolly's free broke the sequence and Geraghty's volleyed goal from Enda Colleran's break brought Milford back into contention. Piling forward, they were caught on the break by a Hayes point but Connolly's fifth free brought the margin back to three points.

Last time we were here, we got acquainted with Charles Wright's second WWE character, Kama, who, for no other reason than being black, stole Undertaker's urn and had it melted down to a gold chain. But if you follow Wright's career, then you know that he eventually became Kama Mustafa, joined the Nation of Domination also known as The Faction Where All Black People Went and somehow became a pimp.
The Godfather was basically the most Attitude Era character of all-time. Here's how:
1. Catchphrases were, as the kids say, on fleek during the Attitude Era. Most guys went to the ring and tried to come up with the most memorable phrases for people to sing along to. Godfather's phrases made zero sense. It was just a collection of jive talk that the audience repeated because YOLO. "Roll up a phatty for this pimp daddy" and "Pimping hos nationwide" and whatever the misogynistic version of Konnan's nonsensical No Limit slang is. It didn't matter what was said, as long as it was fun to repeat.
2. He never won, and his matches sucked. I don't think Godfather ever won a match… I mean, I know he won the Hardcore title, but he was basically a jobber. And it didn't matter. You think wins and losses are irrelevant now? The Attitude Era wasn't exactly abiding by the PWI wrestler rank, either.
3. He was horrible to women.
Godfather wasn't a pimp in the remotely cool "I wear a mink coat and make jokes about Rosie O'Donnell's d*ckhole underwear" way. No, he's a literal pimp who manipulates women to f*ck guys for cents on the dollar under the fake guise of protection. They're terrible, terrible people.
And he was one of the most over babyfaces in the company. Not only does this make a little sense from a moral standpoint, it also spits in the face of wrestling history, as any black guy running around with white women used to be top-level heel heat. But I guess the crowd loved boobs more than they wanted to boo a black guy with white women, so… progress…?
Godfather was Attitude Era Santino, and Charles Wright might have deserved better. Then again, he called women hos every Monday, so maybe not.
Godfather was also a pivotal part of what's in the argument for the most racist segment in RAW history. And that's saying a lot.
Here we are. I was in middle school when DX went on RAW and impersonated the Nation of Domination, and I admittedly thought it was pretty funny. Then, I developed a grown-up brain and learned what was sort of not OK to do. This was not OK to do.
First of all, blackface is bad. Not only does it pull from a history of horrible moments that degraded black people, it's also incredibly unnecessary. There's literally never a time when blackface is needed to drive home a point. Just look at the DX version of the Nation: One guy has a cigar. One guy has a painted-on eyebrow. Another has the goddamn name Mizzark on his vest. And another one is shaking his head to mimic a signature move. They're not exactly cutting cryptic Bray Wyatt promos here. The blackface is never integral. If it is, then do a better impersonation.
As for The Godfather, Billy Gunn's impersonation was the least offensive. All it had was the obligatory jive-talking voice used to impersonate black people. Meanwhile, X-Pac made Mark Henry sound like Fat Albert because of course he is. Godfather just had the lame guy being unfunny.
On the flipside, you can look at this exchange between Godfather and Kurt Angle to see how these ridiculous gimmicks should work; make it known how insane the character is. Play it as insane as it is. Don't pretend this is a normal, OK thing. Angle was gold.
Overall, Charles Wright was a charismatic wrestler who totally bought into every character he was asked to play. He never, though, was really given (or demanded) a gimmick that could push him to the main-event. He was, though, one of the most popular mid-card guys of the Attitude Era, which is no small feat. So, who cares if he made women look worthless in the process… right?

adidas and Arizona's debut didn't quite go as planned, and now, they're back to try again. This time around, the two are focusing on the new Continental Vulc, offering up four different colorways for both men and women, featuring a wealth of patterns taken directly from Arizona cans.
The last project from adidas and Arizona Iced Tea was pretty hard to miss. The collaboration released only last month, just after the two partners announced the four-piece collection of footwear which focused on the Yung-1 and Continental in intricate embroidered patterns reminiscent of Arizona cans. And the catch? They would be sold for just 99 cents, the legendary price for an oversized cannister of refreshing sugar water. Sold exclusively out of a New York City pop-up, things got hectic, as one might expect, and the release was subsequently canceled. Now, the pair are trying their luck once again with a new project. This time around, the subject is the Continental Vulc, the updated version of last year's Continental, with a new vulcanized midsole perfect for kicking around in this Fall. The four pairs launching will each take on a different pattern from an Arizona can, making these the perfect footwear for fans of the brand.
The Arizona Iced Tea x adidas Continental Vulc collection was recently announced to release later this week, on August 17th, 2019. The four-piece project, of which only three have been shared, includes styles for both men and women, priced respectively at $100 and $80 a piece. Check out the of the various patterns and colors coming to the Continental Vulc below, and stay tuned to JustFreshKicks for more adidas release news.

Vancouver is a coastal seaport city located in British Columbia, Canada. The metropolitan area of Vancouver contains over 2 million residents making it the 3rd largest metropolitan area in Canada.
The settlement of what was previously called Gastown was established around a logging mill in 1867 and eventually became the towns ite of Granville. It was renamed "Vancouver" and incorporated as a city in 1886 after the announcement that the railroad was coming to the area.. By 1887, the transcontinental railway had arrived and the area soon became a vital link in a trade route between the Asia, Eastern Canada and London. web security . Forestry is its largest industry, but Vancouver is also known as a city surrounded by nature thus giving tourism the second spot. Since the 1980s, immigration has dramatically increased and 52% do not speak English as their first language; Almost 30% of the city's residents are Chinese.
Many people became acquainted with Vancouver because of the Olympics in 2010. The mountain backdrop of the city skyscrapers is remarkable and its proximity to outdoor activities as well as the ethnic diversity of the region, allow tourists to experience a wide array of cultures in one location.
Granville Island
I began my tour with a trip to Granville Island to learn the history of the island and its influence on Vancouver. The area of Granville Island started out as a creek and sand bar when the city was first developing. Through the years many attempts were made to stabilize the sandbar so that the area could be developed but it was not until the 1970s that the development was approved. Now the area houses a public market and shopping district along with craft studios, boutique hotel, art gallery and theatres.
Gastown was Vancouver's first downtown core and is named after "Gassy Jack" Deighton, a Yorkshire seaman and steamboat captain who arrived in 1867 to open the area's first saloon. The town soon prospered as the site of a sawmill and seaport. It became a center of trade and a place of commerce for the fisherman and loggers in the area. The Canadian Pacific Railway came to town and helped it grow even more. In 1886, the town was renamed the city of Vancouver. Some of the sites to see in Gastown are the Waterfront Station where the railroad ended, the Landing built in 1905, the old Steam clock on corner of Cambie and Water streets, the statue commemorating Gassy Jack, and the many pubs and restaurants in the area. It's only practical to stop by one of the many pubs in Gastown in honor of Gassy Jack.

MNP careers are Different by Design. As an entrepreneurial firm, we truly believe there are no limits to where your career can go.
Credit unions are increasingly joining forces with financial technology – or fintech – startups to offer new consumer-focused products to clients.
"Most of the larger credit unions have entered into partnerships or are actively exploring them right now," said Doug Macdonald, a consulting partner in the financial practice of MNP, a national professional services firm. "It's a symbiotic relationship. The credit unions provide members, they provide capital and a tradition of customer service, while the fintechs bring advanced analytics, plug-and-play functionality and faster time to market."
For fintech startups, though, the biggest advantage might be legitimacy.
Many Canadians are still wary of doing business with new, onlineonly, financial services providers, says Kevin Sandhu, the co-founder and chief executive officer of Grow Financial, which offers personal loans.
It has partnered with First West, a British Columbia-based credit union, and Conexus, the largest credit union in Saskatchewan.
Those partnerships gave the company access to customers it wouldn't have been able to reach on its own, Mr. Sandhu says.
"Knowing that this is being offered in partnership with a tried, trusted credit union or financial institution brand and knowing that that brand, that credit union, has done the diligence," Mr. Sandhu said, allows some credit union members to feel comfortable doing business with a company such as Grow.
Across the world, investment in private fintech companies rose from $1.8-billion (U.S.) in 2010 to $19-billion in 2015, according to a report published by Citigroup in March. It warns that disruption from fintechs might force large banks in the United States to cut their work forces by 30 per cent over the next 10 years.
"There's this big debate about disruption versus partnership," said Michael Garrity, who falls on the partnership side. He is the CEO of Financeit, a company that offers point-of-sale financing services to small and mediumsized businesses.
In mid-April, Financeit formed a partnership with Concentra, a cooperative that offers wholesale financial services to more than 300 credit unions.
"We fundamentally believe that there are some things that we're good at," Mr. Garrity said. "There are some things that we're not very good at. We don't have a deposit base. We don't have a loyal set of customers who leave capital with us every day."
That, he says, comes from credit unions and other financial institutions.
For Concentra, the partnership model allows the company to focus on its main lines of business, rather than becoming a software developer, and can help bring products to market faster, says Ken Kosolofski, the co-op's CEO.
Canada's largest association of credit unions, Montreal-based Desjardins Group, isn't just doing business with fintech startups – it's also funding them through its venture-capital arm and incubating them at its "innovation lab."
Chadi Habib, the company's chief technology officer, says it's not money or technology that fintechs bring to incumbent financial institutions.
"In theory, we can hire the same talent they're all hiring," he said.
"Where we get challenged is the culture."
Financial institutions are accustomed to working in a heavily regulated, highly structured environment, he says. "That brings along with it a certain way of working, a certain inertia."
Fintechs, he said, "have a lot of agility, they learn by iterating and they're focusing on areas, frankly, that are much less regulated."
But Mr. Habib warns that there is a lot hype around fintechs and that their influence may be more limited.
He says the disruptive influence of fintechs might be limited to creating frictionless customer experiences and developing new actuarial and risk models, but he doesn't see them moving into taking deposits or getting involved in the mortgage market.
And, he says, incumbent financial institutions remain highly trusted when it comes to protecting customers money and personal information.

Video Exposes How Governments Use Spraying To Manipulate Weather
Dane Wigington
In the mid 1940's global powers made the decision to intervene in Earth's climate and life support systems without the knowledge or consent of populations. The weather makers tell us their programs are a form of mitigation for global warming, but is this the truth? Is climate engineering / solar radiation management helping to cool the planet? Or are the ongoing geoengineering operations only temporarily cooling some regions at the cost of further fueling the overall rapid unraveling of Earth's climate and life support systems? What other covert agendas are being carried out? How dangerous is the highly toxic heavy metal fallout from these programs that is raining down through our breathable air column? "Hacking The Planet: The Climate Engineering Reality" is a condensed hard hitting 40+ minute climate engineering educational documentary. This informational video reveals shocking film footage of the ongoing atmospheric spraying operations in addition to covering the most fundamental facts about the covert global geoengineering / climate intervention programs. Answers to the most frequently asked climate engineering questions are also covered in this production. Will climate engineering save humanity from global warming? Or will man's attempt to play God with the weather only ensure our common demise.
This video can be freely viewed, shared, and used as a tool for waking others to the critical climate engineering issue. I wish to express my most sincere gratitude to the individuals who helped with this effort. GeoengineeringWatch.org is not (and will not) monetize this educational video in any way. As always, our only goal is to provide essential information in order to assist with critical awareness raising efforts. All of us are needed to in this most important battle to sound the alarm, we must make every day count.
