Opium production in Afghanistan almost doubled this year compared to 2016
Opium production in Afghanistan has almost doubled this year compared to 2016, new research has shown.
The study – compiled by the UN and Afghan government – also found that areas which are under poppy cultivation rose by 63 per cent.
Production increased by 87 per cent and stands at a record level of 9,000 tonnes so far in 2017, compared to the 2016 levels of 4,800
The Afghan Ministry of Counter Narcotics and the UN Office on Drugs and Crime (UNODC) said the area under opium poppy cultivation has also increased to a record 810,488 acres in 2017, compared with the 496,671 acres that cultivated the poppy in 2016.
"It is high time for the international community and Afghanistan to reprioritise drug control, and to acknowledge that every nation has a shared responsibility for this global problem," UNODC's executive director Yury Fedotov said.
The jump in production is mainly a result of the increase in the area under poppy cultivation while a rise in opium yield also contributed.
The largest increase in yields came in the south, where the average yield grew by 19 per cent. In the country's north-eastern region, the yield from the opium poppy rose by 14 per cent.
Researchers said the number of poppy-free provinces in the country decreased from 13 to 10, with Ghazni, Samangan and Nuristan becoming poppy-growing regions, raising the number of those cultivating the poppy from 21 to 24 provinces in the country.
Afghanistan is the world's top cultivator of the poppy from which opium and heroin are produced.
The 2017 record levels of opium production and poppy cultivation create multiple challenges for the country, its neighbours and the many other countries that are transit for or destination of Afghan opiates.
The Taliban, who have been waging war against the Afghan government since 2001, are heavily involved in poppy cultivation and opium distribution, especially in areas under their control.
They have stepped up their attacks against Afghan security forces in the northern region of the country and elsewhere over the past year.
In 2017, government-organised poppy eradication took place in 14 provinces, compared to seven provinces in 2016.
During the latest eradication campaign, six people were killed and eight were wounded in attacks by Taliban as well as drug traffickers.

COLOMBIA | Sunday, 10 April 2011 | Views [4593]
I arrived here rather unamused after a 17 hour bus journey....I always knew it would be a killer as I'd gone such a strange route across the coast and back. The road was bumpy and the suspension squeaky....goodness knows how I got any sleep at all!
However, San Gil is the adventure capital of Colombia, and is quite picturesque, set on a hill with several rivers running close-by. The houses are white and the rooftops red. Note Colombians pronounce 'G' as 'H' so Hill is actually in the name...the roads are very steep..a bit like San Francisco in a way!
Most people come for the adventure sports...caving, paragliding, rappelling (abseiling down a waterfall), hydospeed (body surfing down a river with flippers on), hiking and rafting (grade 1-5).
On arrival I had a day of rest and met some people at the hostel that evening, unfortunatley most people had left that day (about 25 people apparently) but there were a couple of English guys who were sticking around until after the weekend which was great news for me so I wouldn´t be the only one there!
The people who were leaving did make a great dinner suggestion though...Gringo Mike´s (http://gringomikes.net/) even if it was salads/sandwiches for dinner which seems like a strange concept at first...I was sold on the fact it sold salads which can be a rarity in South America! Even the boys were full up after a salad...lots of meat I think was the winning combination! There was an added bonus of adding rum to the fruit juices to make a nice evening tipple.
Everyone was also raving about the rafting so I realised I had to do that the following day, its something I´ve never done but always thought of as fun and something I´d want to do.
Woke up for 9am the following day, the rafting was cancelled due to heavy rain, the river was too high! After chatting about my options, rappelling seemed like the best alternative, I always like the abseilling part of rock climbing. Off I went on a local bus, meeting a group of French guys along the way before taking the 45 min hike to the top of the waterfall. The hikes and parks can be different from the UK in that there are a lot more of an adventure...rocks, muddy paths and dodging trees, walking over small rivers and waterfalls are all the name of the game. We didn´t actually get to the top of the waterfall...I think its 180m high but looking up it was amazing!
The rappelling guys were well equipped though...lots of ropes, people at the top and the bottom, instruction in Spanish as well as English. The height was the main issue...I knew 60m was high, and learning from my bungy jumps I knew not to look down! Progress was slow and I kept slipping, the water was cold but refreshing after the hike up. It was only nearer to the bottom when I started to get into it more, so I wasn´t slipping and just guiding myself down...I seemed to forget everything I had learnt from rock climbing!!
After the climb, the guys walked me down and stopped to climb trees and pull off fruit to eat, it tasted sweet, and was good to have a bit of energy back after the rush of the rappelling. I also saw an amazing peacock...what an adventure!
That evening was dinner at Gringo Mikes again...another day another salad...
The following day we went to Barichara, which is a small colonial town with whitewashed buildings and cobbled streets....very beautiful!!
We were going for lunch pre-ordered at a chef's house. They usually had a restaurant, but it was closed for re-furbishment. It was going to be a treat as the restaurant was supposed to be the best in Colombia and served Colores Hormiga ´translated as Big Arsed Ants!!
After an hour bus ride we met George, who was our chef, after a choice of walking or a lift, unfortunately we decided to walk. The 15 min walk ended up over an hour climbing up 4 hills in the midday sun...not ideal really, we nearly gave up! Luckily someone came to find us and took us to the most idealic setting, it was peaceful and beautiful...a small hostel with an open kitchen, on a small Ant farm...amazing trees and fabulous birds.
George the Chef told us about the Ants and microwaved them which is the modern way of eating them (they used to put them on the hob and cook them for an hour and a half). You only eat the Princess ants, and not the others. They taste a bit like peanuts...great for Antony who has a nut allergy so doesn´t usually have the pleasure of eating them!! Our full menu was...Tamarind juiceAubergine pate, cream cheese with ants and pearl barley with parsley & bread appetisersBeef medallions wrapped in bacon with potatoes, salad and rice main courseFinally some Coffee which was good.
We also tried the tangerine jam which they had made from what they had been growing...it was delicious, I don´t usually like marmalade but this was different...mmm...
We went for a walk back to the town and went out later to play Tejo...the national game in Colombia. Its a bit like bowling, except you have a 50 or 100 kg weight which you aim to hit one of two packets of gunpowder to make them explode. They are set in a block of clay. You don´t directly pay to play but instead buy drinks to continue playing...after a while we all got the hang of it, although I was the worst being a girl and not being able to throw very well!!
My last day in San Gil I wanted to go rafting, unfortunately it was raining again so the day was spent chilling before I got the bus to Bogota that night. It was good as I got to go to the amazing food market again, ate breakfast, cook my own lunch (for the first time in my trip) and take photos despite the bad light!!
In the evening I finished off my time in San Gil off nicely with another trip to Gringo Mike´s...and another salad...I tried all of them...mmmm....and we played a game of poker which I was actually doing quite well in before I had to leave...shame really! Beginners luck most likely and big risk taking as I was running out of time!!
Next stop Bogota.

The rock duo is an interesting concept. The modern era starts with The White Stripes. More recent, Middle Class Rut made a splash with their song "New Low" a few years back and have been solid since. Of course, the current reigning kings of the rock duo are from the UK… Royal Blood is outstanding. The newest duo to join that group, and to hopefully give the guys in Royal Blood a run, is French duo The Dukes. The band is getting ready to take on the U.S. with their new album, "Smoke Against The Beat."
The Dukes are Francois Malgret and Greg Jacks and what they did with "Smoke Against The Beat" is impressive. The album starts off with a badass anthem, "Just In Case" and it's the perfect case study of what these two guys are capable of. They match acoustic/electric guitar with killer drum parts to create a sound that's dynamic and addictive. "Just In Case" is a favorite song to come out this year and with a little luck, can keep gaining momentum and really get these guys an audience. The rest of the album is just as good. "Smoke Against The Beat" – the title track off the album - might be better than "Just In Case." It's like a Hives song on steroids. "The Great Escape" is another personal favorite on the album. It embraces a lot of space in the music but it's like a hurricane of sound. There are moments of mellow before you're smashed in the face with a raucous chorus. Those are just a few highlights, the entire album is OUTSTANDING.
This rocks in big, bold ways. There's stuff that's out there that's close to this sonically, but nothing is as close to being as good. Awesome album. Go and listen to it as soon as you can. The Dukes' "Smoke Against The Beat" comes out on 7/28/2017.

"Your Rainbow Panorama" is a Rainbow-coloured glass walkway on the roof of the Danish art museum ARoS Aarhus Kuntsmuseum, by Danish-Icelandic artist Olafur Eliasson. It's beautiful to look at and must be wonderful to experience in person. I imagine walking through a human kaleidoscope before someone spins it around. The permanent piece consists of a 150-metre-long and three-metre-wide self-contained circular walkway with glass that moves through all of the colours of the spectrum. The piece opened to the public on 28 May, 2011. Something to check out next time you're in Denmark.
Eliasson describes the work:
Your Rainbow panorama establishes a dialogue with the existing architecture and reinforces what was already there, that is to say the view across the city. I have created a space that can almost be said to erase the boundary between inside and outside — a place where you become a little uncertain as to whether you have stepped into a work of art or into part of the museum. This uncertainty is important to me, as it encourages people to think and sense beyond the limits within which they are accustomed to function.

Re: Sleepbuds Discontinuing Discussion
This is an exact copy and paste for a question under the FAQ section of Bose's statement about discontinuing the SleepBuds specific to your question:
"What if I experience an issue after December 31, 2019?
You'll be covered under the product's two-year warranty, which includes a replacement, if available, or a refund. Please be advised that replacements will be drawn from a limited supply of sleepbuds™ with newly manufactured batteries that are less susceptible — but not immune — to the battery-related issues. We expect — but can't guarantee — that we'll have enough inventory to offer replacements into early 2020. If a replacement is not available, you will receive a refund. The process and timeline for your refund will vary by region; please allow at least 4-6 weeks for processing once your returned product is received."
... I am on my third pair that I received in early August. So far, so good. But too soon to tell. My first two sets had a battery begin to malfunction each after about 55 usage cycles (nights of sleep). I got my first pair in December 2018 and one of earbud's batteries started malfunctioning in April. I was using the first pair about two nights a week. My second pair that I got in June had an earbud battery start malfunctioning in the same way in July only after two months, but that was because I was using them every night at that point (kids were out of school and loud in the mornings). My third pair's usage is more similar to my first pair's usage (about 2-3 nights per week). So, I won't exceed 55-60 cycles until early 2020.

Santa Maria a Poneta, with its rural Hamlet, was originally a Country Church built for the local population of Poneta, a small community established inbetween Florence and Siena, more specifically on a branch of the road that lead to Volterra, and close to the valley once crossed by the Via Francigena (the Frankish Road), the main road connecting Rome with France.
This path being used by pilgrims as well as by merchants, raises the assumption that during the Middle Age the church used to offer hospitality to those travelling in this hilly area of Tuscany.
Scholars date the construction of the primitive building between the late 900's and the following century, but the first certain mentions of the "de Pinita" church date back to the 12th century, when on 15th August 1260 the rector Goto Graziani promised in the name of the population 12 bushels of wheat to the Florentine army departing for Montalcino, to support the battle between Florence and Siena for the seniority over this Countryside, full of Vineyards and Olive Trees.
Property of the Township of Linari up to 1352, in the 15th century the Hamlet of Santa Maria a Poneta went under the patronage of the florentine Nobili family. The maps of the Captains of the Guelph's clearly show that Antonio de Nobili was the owner of both the surrounding land and of the small neighbouring hamlet called "Poneta"; it is probably thanks to him that the new parsonage was built and that the coat of arms of the Nobili family was added to the facade of the church.
On 22nd November 1746, the pastoral visit documented that "... the Church is in good condition, with the walls rebuilt in part and two new stucco altars." Restorations were made in Baroque style, although the overall look remained loyal to the Tuscan tradition of simplicity and rigour.
These renovation works were motivated by the fact that the nearby Poppiano Estate became one of the preferred areas for wild boar hunting by the new Grand Dukes of Tuscany and, above all, by Leopold of the House of Habsburg-Lorraine from 1765 to 1790; according to chronicles, "together with his court, they stopped at the Poneta inn, where they could change horses and, above all, taste a good glass of red wine, a tradition that is still alive today thanks to the locally produced Chianti Wine.
In the following years, a persistent lack of parishioners made the whole complex undergo progressive degradation. In 1878, the cistern for water collection was built close to the barn.
A meritorious intervention made in 1929 eliminated all the 18th-century plastering, bringing to light the Romanesque walls in sandstone filaretto. This was the last intervention until 1986, when this church was finally annexed to the church of Sant'Andrea in Vico d'Elsa. Due to the historical importance and relevance of the building, the whole complex is subject to Law no. 1089 of 1939 which safeguards architectural goods and Historical buildings in Italy. The new owners, who acquired the property from the Florentine Curia in 1993, have restored the entire complex, bringing the old hamlet back to life and creating one of the most exclusive Coutry Houses in the area, a historical site in Tuscany accessible only to guests staying in the Country Holiday Apartments.

Power Of Positive Thought Just Got Stronger After You Bought Your Friends And Followers
To think; I am really quite a positive guy. Perhaps I'm lucky that way. Long before I heard anything about the power of positive thinking, I was always acting, thinking and doing positively. I think my behavior came by way of two variables. Always acting out of faith. And always behaving with the best (positive) common sense that I can muster. One important positive on utilizing common sense is this.
The more you put into your efforts, the more you are likely to gain, no matter what your purposes, your goals or ideals, no matter what your objectives, sales targets, and no matter what your business plans suggest for the next few quarters. Although to utilize that much common sense, it seems quite practical to look no further than the next quarter. This is not a narrow-minded or tortoise shell or head in the sand attitude.
It's simply taking on a focused, practical approach to just handling one or two manageable tasks at a time. Speaking about being positive, I expect I'm about to be paid by a client any moment now, if not that, I've already been paid. But no message has come through yet. No notification from my smart mobile. But that doesn't mean I haven't been paid yet. The money could already be in the bank. And as if you didn't know by now, banks do tend to take their time don't they.
Always haggling like a typical Mister Scrooge. And about the only time they seem to oblige is when there's something substantial in it for them. But that's okay. We take no offense. As they say; it's nothing personal, just business. I say it is. It is personal. But that's just me talking. Like being positive, it's in my nature. No need to 'act natural', just be yourself and the best of you will come shining through.
New followers for Instagram objective setting will get to see your true colors. And imagine how much more grand it feels once you've bought or been rewarded with more followers on your Instagram account. Nice to see those digits. But do make them count. And remember, it's still your Instagram account. Show the world that this is you, not some made up falsehood. Standard practice is to work on developing your own unique Instagram style.
Glory days in the future look positively appealing once you begin to see some positive reactions to your regular, sunny broadcasts. More on the good side of being positive is this, particularly if you are a serious-minded businessman or woman, or ambitious startup engineer. Raking in the followers at this rate, you get your message spread within minutes. And you get a fairly early impression on what new or current followers think of your brand-building exercise.
Style, message, awareness; those are key words for you to work on. They're all positive. And so are the numbers.

As Princess Vashta of the Vendel finishes her combat training, she hopes she will lead their forces into battle against her race's deadly enemy, the Verindal. But when Brandonin, the heir to the Verindal throne, comes to see her father, it's clear he desires peace, not war.

TALLAHASSEE (AP) — Florida State kicker Roberto Aguayo has been named to the Lou Groza Award watch list after winning the trophy in 2013. He became the ninth Seminole to be named to college football preseason awards watch lists Wednesday.
Aguayo was named the top kicker in the nation as a freshman after setting the national record for points by a kicker with 157. He could join former Seminole Sebastian Janikowski as the only repeat winners.
Aguayo was the third Seminole to win the award and set the ACC single-season points record.
Quarterback Jameis Winston, receiver Rashad Greene, running back Karlos Williams, cornerback P.J. Williams, defensive end Mario Edwards, Jr., receiver and kick returner Kermit Whitfield, tight end Nick O'Leary and center Austin Barron were all named to preseason lists this week.

The RBI said in a release on Thursday that banks can offer gold deposits maturing in 6 months to 7 years period compared with 3 years to 7 years earlier. The central bank also said the banks do not need to obtain its approval for floating such schemes.

From touring with The Ramones, to running from the amorous attentions of soon-to-be famous college professors and 'the short one from Hall & Oates', to giving celebrity facials and waxing Cher – GK was never a 'wannabe' but always someone with her own mind, and knowledge of what was the right way to live and what was destructive, even while in the middle of it herself.
Joan Jett at CBGB (excerpt)
…GK was no shrinking violet waiting to be swamped, but a lady I think few she encountered would realise was one whose inner spark would lead her out of the dark times, and onto the path of true personal fulfilment.
Well-read, poetic, historic, and excitingly insightful in parts, this is a real account of the Manhattan scene as it should be remembered.
Patti Smith has the final word with "Elegie" at CBGB on October 15th, 2006 – the end of an era
The famous set are portrayed as real people the author knew and interacted with, as part of her own social landscape. Although in awe of some, her observations are a tonic to the pages of the trashy magazines of today. A truly literary rock and roll memoir.

Domestic market share drops while admissions soar in 2009
A spectacular 30% rise in general admissions offset a 7% drop in market share for homegrown titles in 2009. Greek films brought in 1.7 million viewers, a drop of 200,000 from 2008, for 12.6% of the 13.5 million admissions registered in 2009. Major distributors saw a dramatic rise in their year-end totals, thanks to the teen-oriented fare that dominated the market. Apocalyptic actioner 2012 rose to the top spot with 477,500 tickets, followed by Angels and Demons (414,000) and 2008 left-over...

New Greek film showcase arises from the mist

Though the recent change in government did spread a breath of optimism in the group's ranks, FOG do...
Greece - International Film Guide Survey
The number of multiplexes continued to increase in Greece over the last year. However, there was no increase in cinema attendance. One of the main reasons, besides the influence of TV and DVDs, is the way films have been distributed over the last few years. Read the survey published by the International Film Guide: Survey - Greece
Market share rises amidst dropping admissions
Though 2008 ended with a substantial drop of 18% in general admissions, local films managed to stand their ground, thus achieving a slight rise in market share, from last year's 16.2% to this year's 19.6%. Out of a total of 9.7 million tickets sold, 1.9 million were for homegrown titles.

Arthouse stir in local cinema
What has been dubbed the springtime of Greek cinema has strengthened private funding of local films and encouraged Greek distributors to take risks on local product that would have otherwise relied heavily on state distribution so as to avoid dying an unscreened, straight-to-DVD death, at best.

PR Pros Weigh In On Facebook Timeline for Brands
Yesterday's Facebook Marketing Conference generated lots o' news — a new Reach Generator and more data (real-time analytics are also coming), for example. AllFacebook has gathered up some reaction from the tech industry.
But clearly the item making the most waves among PR pros is Facebook Timeline for Brands. Our guest columnist for this week, Brandware Public Relations social media and digital manager Jared Degnan, offered up four reasons why marketers would love it. Now that Timeline has been made official, AllFacebook also offers seven things you need to know, and Mashable looks specifically at six things that will be critical for marketers, with their complete overview here.
Publicists, brands, and other communicators using Timeline will have to decide on the brand message they want to put front-and-center for Facebook fans and which images best convey that message. Moreover, the commitment to engaging on Facebook now requires more work and more interaction.
The Mashable article points out that some tabs are disappearing while other options, like setting a default page, prioritizing content, and using a cover photo, are opening up. Previously, brands used their Facebook pages to highlight limited-time promotions as much as for overall branding. But now, Timeline is making it necessary to lay out your messaging in a way that speaks to why this is a brand that consumers should want to follow and interact with, in addition to any special happenings or announcements, which can appear as a "pinned post." (More advice about special promos here.)
Yesterday on Twitter, many people complimented the New York Times' Timeline, which opens with a big picture of the newsroom, outlines how the page is organized to showcase the depth and breadth of the outlet's history, then proceeds to showcase the latest content.
On the Coca-Cola page, the logo and signature red catch the eye. The mission: "The Coca-Cola Facebook Page is a collection of your stories showing how people from around the world have helped make Coke into what it is today." Scroll down and it's less about pushing out Coke's vision for the brand and more about how consumers see it, with stories told through images and text. (It actually looks a little Pinterest-y.)
PR pros are weighing in on the offering across the Internet. Cone Communications outlines, point by point, Timeline's offerings and changes.
On ReadWriteWeb, Jonathan Rick from Levick Strategic Communications says, "If you're using Facebook strategically, then this is a big deal: the new layout rewards creativity and innovation."
On its blog, Edelman points out that while Timeline gives brands more "creative freedom," it could pose reputational problems. "At a time where trust factors into purchase decisions, companies and brands will need to address their history – the good, the bad, and the ugly. This is an immediate opportunity for savvy brands and companies to demonstrate the positive impact they've had on the world and further build loyalty and credibility with their customers," it says.
Cohn & Wolfe points out that Timeline is more labor-intensive for marketers, and further blurs the lines between disciplines. "From my perspective, these changes to Facebook put marketers who understand earned media (traditionally PR and communications professionals) at the top of the strategy hierarchy. The reason is simple: the more emphasis a brand puts on long term relationship building with consumers and less on short term campaigns, the greater rewards they will see," writes Tony Lederer.

The housing market is broken, and, after eight long years it is clear that current Conservative housing policy is failing to fix it. Ministers talk big about housebuilding targets to be reached some time in the next decade. But what new homes we build, and who they're for, matter just as much as how many we build.
To make housing more affordable, we need to build more affordable homes, and to hardwire housing affordability through the system, from planning to funding to delivery. The public know this: eight in 10 people think ministers should be doing more to get affordable housing built.

Supposed footage of Babe Ruth's "Called Shot" home run in Game 3 of the 1932 World Series. While it is intriguing footage, there are questions to consider when viewing the footage. The batter's eye in center field does not appear to be at Wrigley Field and attempts to verify it as being Wrigley Field have not been successful. The skyline in the background, additional outfield bleachers and the overall look of the field does appear to be Wrigley Field. However, there are other question of validity.
Was the most famous home run of all time real or a myth? The real question is, who was Chicago Cubs pitcher Guy Bush and how did he earn the distinction of having not just one, but two "Called Shot" home runs belted against him?

*Call it what you will: Mother Culture, Professional Development, or Mom's Night Out but mark these dates on your calendars now!*
Dear Parents, if you are within driving distance of Bradford, Ontario, please feel welcome to join us for this year's Charlotte Mason Support Group meetings. The purpose of our group is two-fold: 1) to read and discuss an educational book that will aid us in teaching our children at home using Charlotte Mason's educational philosophy and methodology, and 2) (even better 😉) to support one another as we survive this crazy home school life!
If you are unfamiliar with Charlotte Mason, then let me provide a short introduction: Miss Mason was an English educator in the late 1800s and early 1900s. She believed in the full potential of all children to learn and thrive which was a monumental in a time when children should be "seen and not heard" and when they were only taught in accordance with their social class. She believed that all children were innately intelligent, inquisitive, creative, and able in so many ways simply because they were made in the image of their Creator God.
As such she thought that they should be given a liberal (as in broad) education regardless of their background. She taught that there were three tools or modes of education: Education is a Atmosphere (Don't create an artificial environment for learning but encourage a love of learning from all aspects of life), a Discipline (Habit building, character training, virtues are key!), and a Life (Academics should be broadly studied as the sum of all life and not just a few isolated and unrelated subjects).
She pursued these ideals by focusing on what she called living books which were quality literature written by people who were passionate about their topics rather than textbooks that we dry and filled only with facts. She encouraged narration and much outdoor time. She taught that students should get in touch with God through His Word, with His creation through nature walks and the study of natural history, and with mankind through the humanities: arts, music, literature, poetry, and so much more. She believed in short lessons and much free time for children to digest their learning and to pursue worthy interests.

Despite oil's gains, the Dow, Nasdaq and S&P continue to move to the upside. CNBC asked the experts where you should put your money now.
Finding Bargains in Financials
"Beaten down stocks, financial services, if you have a strong stomach, you definitely want to be picking around in those areas. But, just be forewarned that you could be in for a wild ride. But a long term investors should be looking in those areas right now."
- Michael Cuggino, Permanent Portfolio Funds
Bullish on Equities
"We think the fear factor is going to go away and the equities are going to recover. The neat thing about the miningsector right now is that they haven't really reflected the fact that the underlining the commodities, the remedies, are up sharply."
- Thomas Winmill, The Midas Funds
Think Small
"Mini small cap stocks are washed out here. And I think if there's value in this market, it's in smaller stocks, sub $500 million market cap companies."

Phillies Outfielder Domonic Brown Had the Audacity to Root for the Cowboys Today in Philly
By Mike Cardillo | Oct 20, 2013, 6:45 PM EDT
Domonic Brown attended Sunday's Cowboys/Eagles game at the Linc in Philadelphia. If this picture the Phillies outfielder tweeted is any indication, Brown appeared to have a bunch of fun. The Cowboys, won too.
To some Philadelphia fans on Twitter Brown has committed a crime on par with Benedict Arnold and all other famous traitors throughout history. How dare a professional athlete playing in Philadelphia (or anywhere) root for a team from another sport in another city? What an affront!
Anyways run a search for Brown's mentions on the 140-character service. It will restore your faith in humanity … or the exact opposite.

In this paper, an attempt has been made to examine the role of culture of the Bodo community of Baksa District of Assam in sustaining rural development by taking the local perspectives of Bodo people with special reference to Bodo women. The analysis revealed that culture has many intrinsic values, which need to sustain in rural development in addition to instrumental values for achieving ecological, economic and social goals of sustainability. We were also able to identify four discourses: continuity, locality, diversity and rights and responsibilities, which frame the sustainable rural development and which need to be carefully considered by policies and further studies on sustainable rural development. The reasons for the significance of cultural values are complex and many advocacy groups have not successfully provided clear explanations for and convincing arguments in favour of prioritizing cultural values in the development processes. The aim of this paper is to examine the roles played by culture in relation to sustainable rural development, posing the question of how cultural traditions might potentially offer alternatives/adaptive strategies, not only to strength livelihood assets of rural communities, but also in generating new opportunities during vulnerabilities caused by economic, social and political changes.
Key words: Bodo Community, Women, Education, Occupation, Sources of Income

Gastronomy Trek: From Hesar to Dashtak
Shiraz, Iran
Culture shock rating
Worried we're going to shock your senses? Relax! We believe part of the fun of travel is immersing yourself in the destination and its culture, meeting the people, and learning what makes the place tick. We've got a wide range of tours with something for everybody. The cultural shock rating ranks how different the experience is from most Western cultures. But no matter the level, don't worry, you'll have a local, in-the-know guide with you every step of the way.
Consider these tours your 101 intro to a place. Transportation might be private or a very comfortable public option, and the activities are usually visits to iconic sites and locations that are familiar to most Western cultures – but that will still give you fantastic insight into a destination.
Expect to rough it for parts of this tour, whether that's on a packed public bus or in a local market off the tourist trail. There might be a few language barriers or unfamiliar cultural customs, and you'll get an experience different from what you're used to at home.
You're out there in the global community! We're going to take you down streets you'd rarely explore on your own, introduce you to local customs and languages, and take you for a ride in whatever transport is available. Get ready to take it as it comes, whatever comes. There might be a shock, but oh man, it's worth it.
Physical rating
Worried our tours are too tough? Relax! From leisurely strolls to muscle-burning treks, we've got a wide range of tours with something for everybody. The physical grading gives you an idea of how much huffing and puffing you can expect on the tour.
Slow and steady is all you need here. These tours have very limited physical activity, such as walking relatively flat streets, sites, or markets, and climbing in and out of the transport provided.
Not too hard, not too soft, these tours are just right! You can expect a bit of physical activity, but nothing overly challenging – perhaps walking up and down hills, riding a bike for up to 30 kilometers along mostly flat terrain, or jumping in a kayak for a gentle paddle on flat water.
Get ready for a workout! These tours are our most challenging and involve intense walking, hiking, kayaking, swimming, or bike riding. You could be making steep climbs by foot or pedal, or working your core in the water. We recommend you have a good level of fitness to join this tour.

Your Shiraz tour will take you beyond Shiraz, but before we leave the city, we'll meet at Hafez's tomb, the memorial site of one of Iran's most beloved poets. Here we'll briefly introduce ourselves and get to know each other a bit before heading out in our car towards the picturesque mountains and hills of the Hesar region, approximately 80 kilometres northwest of Shiraz. This region combines beautiful scenery, fresh mountain air, and that ever-famous Iranian hospitality!
We'll hike through the beautiful hills and mountains for about three and a half hours, while your tour guide tells you about the local history, and the regional flora and fauna. Finally, we'll walk through wooded areas that provide vital income to the local residents in Dashtak.
No doubt hungry from all that hiking, we'll then visit with a local family in a small village, and enjoy a traditional Iranian lunch. You'll get to chat with the family and learn more about local life in this part of Iran.
Following our hearty lunch, we'll return to Shiraz by car — don't worry if you fall asleep on the ride! We have a feeling that naps will definitely be required!
Please note that it is Iranian custom to bring a small token of thanks when you are a guest in someone's home, and it will be greatly appreciated by our hosting family. (If it's possible, bring something small from your country — the more personal the better!)

BOSTON (CBS) –For one Boston University student, this week's fatal fire at an off-campus Allston apartment bring backs haunting memories.
Josh Goldenberg was critically injured after he jumped from the window of his third-floor attic apartment to escape a fire.
One year later and right across the street, B.U. senior Bin-land Lee was killed in the very same situation. She was trapped in her third floor apartment when the house on Linden Street burned down Sunday morning. In both cases, there were no doors leading from their apartments to the outside.
"It's very possible any time with many houses and a lot of people," says Goldberg. "I think how lucky I am that I came away."
Goldenberg's apartment house burned down in January of 2012. He broke several bones, and was in a coma for 10 days. His long journey to recovery leaves him with slurred speech and double vision. "
I have a brain injury, and I broke my right orbital bone, and I have a plate right here on my face," he says.
In the more recent fire, Boston's Department of Inspectional Services served the landlord with several violation notices. Anna Belokurova was cited for having an illegal basement apartment and for overcrowding.
Nineteen people lived in the two-unit home, which had not been inspected in more than 20 years.
A new city ordinance takes effect Wednesday that will require the city to inspect all rental properties at least once every five years.
"It's just unfortunate these landlords are taking advantage of our students in certain areas of the city," says Mayor Tom Menino.
City crews went door-to-door Tuesday posting flyers encouraging tenants to call for inspections.

Today, while playing Monopoly with my now-10-year old nephew, the subject of my birthday next weekend came up. I told him I was spending the actual day, next Sunday, on the Amtrak with my oldest friend, returning from Springfield, where we will be celebrating. I told him this because he and I went down to Springfield last June and I thought he would want to reminisce about our trip.
Instead, he turned away, saying, "You should be here."
"We always celebrate my birthday on Thanksgiving. We can do that again this year." That's not exactly true. My birthday was always a separate family event. Then my kid sister, his mother, decided about 7 years ago that she was busier than I am and not about to go out of her way for me anymore. (I never noticed her going out of her way for me at all, but never mind. Another story for another time.) I don't argue with her or stand up for myself anymore because I worry that she'll block my access to the kids. Now that I think of it, she hasn't invited me for Thanksgiving yet ...
"Thanksgiving is too late this year! Your birthday is November 22!" As if I don't know my birthday. His frustration surprised me.
"Are you upset about this?" I asked as his glasses came off.
"He's been planning a party for you," my mom said, coming back into the room where he and I were playing. Hearing her say that started the tears.
I explained to him that I was sorry and upset, too. After all, who was missing out on singing and a present? Me! But I told him we had two choices:
1) Celebrate on Thanksgiving anyway
2) Have his party as planned, but the following Sunday
No, he insisted. It's no good if it's not closer to my actual birthday! I showed him my datebook and how my friends had different celebrations planned for me throughout the month. I said, "My birthday is not a day, it's a festival." He wrote his name down on my calendar for Sunday the 29th, we hugged, and went back to Monopoly.
Naturally I'm sorry to see him cry. But it was gratifying to know my special day meant so much to him. He's such a sweet boy.
These are the thoughts and observations of me — a woman of a certain age. (Oh, my, God, I'm 60!) I'm single. I'm successful enough (independent, self supporting). I live in the burbs and work in the city (Chicago, the best city in the world). I'm an aunt, a friend and a colleague. I feel that voices like mine are rather underrepresented online or in print. So here I am. If my musings resonate with you, please visit my blog again sometime.

Researchers at CERN break "The Speed of Light"
What has happened at CERN?
What does that mean?
What are the knock-on effects?
Have the results been proven?
Does this mean E does not equal MC squared?

This is extremely mind-bending!!!!ReplyDelete
its a heavens gate for the reptilians.ReplyDelete
Is this a joke of some kind?ReplyDelete
Calibration may be an issue.ReplyDelete
I was just thinking our math was becoming out of date then I see this.ReplyDelete
Isn't this the EXACT same finding CERN reported back in 2011 that was found faulty due to equipment issues? Literally word for word with The Telegraph's shortened reporting back in the day https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/science/8782895/CERN-scientists-break-the-speed-of-light.htmlReplyDelete
Perhaps acceleration is the issue?ReplyDelete
So if E=mc2 then photon particle having no mass would be regulated to a certain speed (light) whereas a neutrino and any other yet undiscovered smaller particle could in fact travel faster because they have mass to contain kinetic energy causing it to accelerate to a faster speed, light photons having no mass are restricted to the speed of light therefore unable to accelerate any faster.ReplyDelete
it's up to the tools basis on c, the speed of photon. stepping stone comes fir the dark matter and dark energy. feels live in the new era on tech to destroying uncertainty..ReplyDelete
Why do the links go to an April Fool page?ReplyDelete

The precision and accuracy required for this conclusion are very stringent. The sending and receiving need to be measured by atomic clocks that are synchronized. Neutrinos are difficult to detect, as mentioned in the article, because they have very little interaction with matter. For something that small, the act of observing it can change it's properties. And this most certainly is based upon a statistical analysis of the bulk properties, rather than identifying a single neutrino.ReplyDelete
THE MOST DIFFICULT THING TO VERIFY IS THE ACTUAL DISTANCE BETWEEN SENDING AND RECEIVING SITE, especially since photons cannot travel the same path due to obstructions in the line of sight. The distance traveled by light in 60 nanoseconds is very, very short, and the Earth itself is not entirely dimensionally stable. Among other things, it deforms on a tidal basis. I would want to see the distance verified by laser at about the same time as the experiment, but that can't be done in this case.
So for all that, maybe we have now come to a state-of-the-art where we have the precision to call this as a ball or a strike. It certainly does need to be verified. But if it proves to be true, that would be amazing!
I would like to know if these neutrinos were measured during their travel or just start and finish. If they were not, which is more plausible, could another factor be in play such as super symmetry, where subatomic particles may blink in and out of existence, which would account for the speed/distance discrepancy.ReplyDelete
Have you tried turning it off and on again?ReplyDelete
Who wrote this nonsense? The experiment was years ago and the results debunked shortly afterwards.ReplyDelete
The Professor named in the article resigned in shame IN 2012 FFS!
