Somebody, can you review it?
Student or Learner
The second reason, why I became interested in this specialty is my belief. I believe that if you are doing only what everyone says, what you know or that you can – you never do in life anything special. When I began to take an interest in the science of Genetics and famous people in this field, I was very admired of scientist Barbara McClintock. I admire with her work. She became a woman, who is my authority. As well as, I am motivated by one of my favorite philosophers, saying: "A man sees his reflection in the human being." Therefore, I see my reflection in this woman.
The dream realization begins with correct selection of the country. There, several reasons why I have chosen the England as the country I want to study in that. First of them, the English universities very positively are recognized around all the world. In this country are taught in many fields. Secondly, the England is rich with students from all the world. I am attracting here by the prevailing broad cultural diversity, and I have a desire to get a conversance with the more diverse people. Thirdly, this country attracts me its beautiful landscape. It is also a multinational country, so I do not feel so strange here.
In spite of these reasons, in this country is an amazing and suitable Newcastle University, / The university of Essex, / University of Westminster. This university has a miscellaneous community – here are gathered students from more than 40 countries. There is friendly, safe, pleasant environment, active and enthusiastic students' life. In addition, it has an excellent academic reputation of the university because it is focused on student success in studies. Also, the vast majority of graduating students find a good job or continue their studies.
I can mention that I entered in contests of Biology and Chemistry "Elementum" at school. I have always been an active in public life not only in relation to Biology and Chemistry. I took part in International mathematical contest "Kangaroo" and in Translation Competition "Your Look" in English and Russian languages at school. As well as, I participated in "Saulės" Gymnasium's organized "Tiksliukų" get-together where skills are integrated with mathematical knowledge. In additionally, I am responsible and independent person. I have worked as a nanny of Lithuanian children in Germany. I make a practice of Art School in all Lithuania in every summer. In spite of this, I am fond of going camping. The College of Kolping organizes camps in Troskunai, in which are given "Jaunimo ir vaikų sergančių cukriniu diabetu" lectures on themes of politics, religion and environment.
Aside from school, I have a passion for a number of hobbies. In my free time, I am keen on drawing. I have graduated from A. Martinaitis Art School. I have been singing in the school choir for three years. Also, I have been attending classes of pottery for many years. During my free time, I am keen on dancing. I have been dancing ballroom dances for four years, and I have tried linear dances, lindy hop. Besides, I enjoy involving in ISM University Lectures and projects, such as "I seek more" and "Mental battles". I interest in the existential literature, one of my favorites representative of this period is Albert Camus. To deep relax, I am keen on traveling. I often travel. While I am traveling, I see other cultures, other ethnicities, admire with architecture. So, I prefer to visit the famous and the party distinctive architectural masterpieces. Traveling experience helped me to improve my English, German and Russian communication skills.
To sum up, I would like to take part in the University life because this is an excellent opportunity to improve my professional skills. I should be accepted because in my life are two very important and concurrent things - the motivation and responsibility. The motivation is the engine for me to be in progress and responsibility that influences my choices and promotes me to finish the work. I think that I am a creative person who likes to try myself. I am full of ambition and desires.

Somebody, can you review it?
I'm not a teacher, but I will try to help you:
The industry of Medical Genetics and Biomedicine is my dream. There are several reasons why I started to take an interest in the study of this science. The first reason is that I have had an interest in this specialty from a young age at school. As long as I remember, I have always loved Biology lessons. Biology was one of the most interesting subjects in my life. I am interested in the human nervous system and I wonder how it affects our body and emotions. This science has always fascinated me with its secrets. The science of Biology explains what we see every day, but we do not know what lies in inside it and what causes it (I don't really understand what you're trying to say here). I wanted to learn more and more how it operates.
End of part 1
(I'm not a teacher or a native English speaker. I'm just trying to help...)
Thank you very much :)
Can someone check the other parts of the personal statement, please?

There are, someone who have a time and English knowledge?
Thank you.
The second of those reasons would be my personal view on life. I firmly believe that if you follow specific rules and norms you will never achieve something truly outstanding. Once the science of genetics piqued my interest I took note of various famous people in the field, first and foremost of those being Barbara McClintock. Furthermore, I believe her work to be one of the best there are. A philosopher once said that a man sees his reflection in the human being and I have found my reflection in her.
However, I wanted to study abroad, in England to be exact. There are several reasons why I have chosen England as the country I want to study in. First of all, the English universities are valued and recognized throughout the world. The sheer range of possibilities is astounding. Secondly, the amount of foreign students presents a rather interesting cultural palette. It is those diversities that attract me beyond belief. My third reason would be the beauty of country itself and its habitants in general. Not to mention the fact of England being one of supporting columns of the world thus making it a scientifical hub of sorts. [I don't think you should mention the diversities so much. Not that diversities themselves are bad, but you can say one thing in only so many ways and at one point the sentences become redundant]
I sincerely hope I'm not too late and I'll probably continue with revising it tomorrow. Note that I am not a teacher nor am I a native English speaker so all my advices should be taken with a grain of salt.
Thank you very much.
Yes, it is not late. I have about 4 weeks for cheking.

text: Subscriber theladyA 3 Posted June 11, 2015 Subscriber Share Posted June 11, 2015 Having seen U2 for every tour since Joshua Tree in 1987, I love them wholeheartedly. They are my favorite band..ever. But like all relationships, there are problems to work through. Only I don't know to whom or where to address my issue and will post here in an effort to get it off my chest and be heard in dialogue. For the past two tours, with the creation of the Red Zone we have come to learn that they usually get the best position in the house. I was alright with that because the money went to charity and it wasn't only the best seat in the house. But I can say, I wanted to be in the heart. Heck, for years concert goers know that especially with the creation of the extortionists, Ticketmaster, that the best seats sell at a premium to brokers and then to the highest bidder in the open market. Why not make those reserved for super fans who can pay and donate to charity? That said, this tour I got tickets for MSG on 7/18 and 7/19. The latter ones being Red Zone, however and this is my gripe...(and I know it's posted in between other posts previously but I still can't figure out who to contact)....the stage design changed and is not the same as during the pre-sale. Arguably, Red Zone is not the best position. But for the price, I paid $350 a pop for those. Not that bad considering I paid $312.40 for the other tickets in Sec 213 Row 7. Yes, yes, the original layout showed a rectangular horizontal stage with the RZ being at the opposite end of Sec 213. So, I assumed from the positioning of the last two tours, that the main stage was in front of the RZ. Not the case, now I, a fan, who subscribes to U2.com, pays an annual fee for that every year...was able to purchase tickets that took hours on the day of the presale from Ticketmaster. Some of the "best" seats presold to fans are now obstructed side views of the main stage and the band plays for 50% of the show on another stage? This isn't to mention the other ticket deception that after the presale, tickets in the same locations as these sold for less on Ticketmaster. In the end, as a fan, I feel cheated and taken advantage of...I'd like to sell my tickets in Sec 213 or trade them and get a better view. I feel like we were duped. Tickets for presale and thereafter should not have been sold under the pretense that the stage was as indicated or that fans had to troll forums and guess at what would actually be the set up like a secret map to a prize and hope you paid for the right location. I am not a fan of how ticket sales for these shows has become not only a mystery tour of 'let's see what you can get on any given day', wait and see how things progress and change and hope the "affordances" of being a fan (who pays to be in the club) will make you feel appreciated and draw you in closer to the band or put you out in left field. It is said that when you try to please everyone, you actually sometimes end up pleasing no one. Yes, the show has an amazing new layout and set design with two stages for the band to play and an immense catwalk to make all feel part of the band, along with a megatron of displays (but who wants to pay over $312 to watch the band on TV in an arena?). Their attempt to make everyone feel more immersed is not my gripe. It's a great idea. Selling tickets that are preselected and set aside to your fans that become just about the worse seats in the house that were paid for with a premium...that is a legitimate gripe and one that I hope gets some attention from the powers that be (whoever you are..). If anyone did anything about their tickets, please let me know. Link to post Share on other sites

Ogando puts starter preparation ahead of Classic
But Ogando went to the Rangers, and they told him he would be in the starting rotation again, so he decided against it.
Ogando wants to have plenty of time to get ready this time. He was thrust into a starting role in 2011 late in Spring Training when Tommy Hunter started the season on the disabled list.
"It's a privilege to represent my country, and I was willing to do it," Ogando said through an interpreter. "I have two years without being a starter full-time, and I don't want to take a risk on anything. I want to be a starter."
Ogando made the All-Star team two seasons ago, starting the year with a 7-0 record and a 2.20 ERA. He finished at 13-8 with a 3.51 ERA. Rangers pitching coach Mike Maddux said Ogando can be even better in his second stint in the rotation.
"As long as Alexi stays healthy, healthy, wealthy and wise, we'll be OK," Maddux said. "He's a special talent. He has that look. We're going to refine him a little more."

This Classora survey tries to capture the biggest names in Russian literature, regardless of genre. Notwithstanding this however, we may have missed an important name or two as well as writers that may not be very well known. Therefore we hope our users will enrich this report by providing names and opinions. On the other hand, it's always difficult to determine the best representative of all time of a specific subject. And when talking about literature this may be even more problematic, due to its subjective nature. So please be our guest and participate. Vote the best Russian writers of all time.

Bluefin, yellowtail and dorado thrill Prowler anglers
TV is always looking for that next great reality show. We found it on the Prowler on the Fourth of July. Let's call it "Open Party Fishing Trip."
Want a random cross section of Americana, put together a 1½-day fishing trip and watch who shows up.
"That's the great thing about an open party trip," Prowler Capt. Buzz Brizendine said. "You get all walks of life out here. You can have an astrophysicist next to a construction worker next to a shop owner. You never know."
Brizendine pretty much has seen it all since becoming a deckhand as a youth and then buying the Prowler in 1979 when he was 24 years old. It was Bill Poole's original Polaris, built in 1965. Brizendine has improved on it over the 34 years and you won't find a better fishing operation, a more professional crew, led by second captain Trevor Fried, or a more sparkling clean boat and heads, 48 years and all.
On this trip, with terrific weather and calm seas with an occasional backdrop of spouting whales and jumping dolphins, there was Ray Fontaine, an American Airlines pilot who grew up in San Diego County but now lives in Canyon Lake. It seems that if Fontaine isn't flying passengers, he's fishing. He was on his 12th fishing trip this season, and it's only a little more than a month old. A former deckhand, he worked local boats and even decked and played cribbage with the legendary Mel Shears. Fontaine landed yellowtail, bluefin tuna and one dorado. Thus far this season, the pilot has caught 80 yellowtail, three bluefin tuna and a dorado.
Maj. Dave Sumethasorn, a Marine Corps reservist here for an assignment, has landed tuna over 200 pounds on the Royal Star, landed a huge dorado, certainly the most impressive catch of the trip.
Richard Benson has a doctorate in bio ethics and soon will be teaching at DePaul University in Chicago. He boated two yellowtail late to help make his trip a successful one.
El Cajon's Michele Costa is a construction consultant and was making her first offshore trip ever. She landed two yellowtail and a bluefin, her first for both species. She fished with Alex Espinoza, who owns a pool service company. An accomplished angler, Espinoza helped Costa early, but the lady is a natural angler and didn't need much instruction.
An Arizona group included Jim Ulrikson of Scottsdale, with his brothers Ken and Marvin and son, Jay, and friend, Leon Black.
We went as far south as 120 miles searching for biting fish.
Early on in the trip, a jig stop produced an unusual fish for early July off San Diego.
Leo Borromeo, an electrical engineer from San Diego, hoisted a dorado, or mahi mahi, aboard Capt. Buzz Brizendine's 62-foot sportboat out of Fisherman's Landing.
"Here we are looking for albacore, and we get a dorado," Brizendine said, shaking his head.
Our offshore waters are way ahead of schedule in terms of temperature and conditions, and Brizendine and others believe that will translate into an early run on dorado and yellowfin tuna. Unfortunately, the cooler water dwelling albacore seemed to have skipped by and already are showing up north.
Our day started in a slight temperature break, where the water formed an edge that was three-tenths of a degree cooler than the 67 degrees found the rest of the day.
"If it was 67 degrees in the middle of August, that'd be normal," Brizendine said. "Even during El Nino years we don't get dorado this early. By the end of this month we could be fishing for yellowfin tuna. I'm sure there's cooler water out to the west. That area doesn't get a good look (for albacore), but as far as warmwater species (like dorado and yellowfin), this summer is looking like it could be a really exciting one. It looks like water that will make for a very good fishing season off San Diego."
The Prowler's 22 anglers sampled that on the Fourth of July trip that left at 8 p.m. the previous night and returned Friday morning at 7:10 a.m. They returned with 25 bluefin tuna, 41 yellowtail and 6 dorado.

Imagine Dragons Releases Rebellious Single "Machine"
Listen to the newest 'Origins' track below
October 31, 2018
Imagine Dragons is celebrating Halloween with the release of an energetic new song, debuting "Machine" as the latest single off of their upcoming Origins.
Related: Imagine Dragons Details Upcoming Album 'Origins'
The single's dystopian album art is an allusion to Pink Floyd's Division Bell, an album title that's said to reference the British bell announcing a vote and in turn the ability to make a decision.
Lead singer Dan Reynolds' decision is to not be part of the "machine" and to live outside the confinements placed by society. A percussive beat sits under increasingly gritty vocals from Reynolds who fights before realizing "I am the machine."

real world point of view.
Prepping blueprints for expansion...
Command & Conquer 3: Incursion is a stub and needs your help. You can help by expanding it.
Please refer to the talk page for further discussion.
Command & Conquer 3: Incursion (also referred to as Tiberian Twilight during development) was the working title for an iteration of Command & Conquer 3 while being developed by Westwood Studios.[1] It used the Westwood 3D engine and started development after Command & Conquer: Tiberian Sun, with a total development time of at least three years. Development halted in favor of Continuum, a Command & Conquer MMO which was also cancelled.[2]
The C&C 3 concept underwent numerous revisions. The eventual product, Command & Conquer 3: Tiberium Wars from Electronic Arts Los Angeles, evolved to be very different from Westwood's concept.[2]
The game was intended to finish the Tiberium universe and was already under development after Tiberian Sun was released. Westwood intended to keep the range of Tiberium fauna and flora from Tiberian Sun. However, the W3D engine was not designed to handle Tiberium growth; this remained unresolved when Westwood stopped development.[3]
The introductory sequence showed a GDI commando in Screaming Eagle power armor[4] floating in the debris field of Philadelphia, destroyed off screen by Nod. There were a number of flashback sequences before the commando re-entered the atmosphere. The armor was melted during re-entry.[5]
GDI and Nod fought in Area 51. GDI was attempting to retrieve the remaining Screaming Eagle suit from the vaults. During the fighting, GDI inadvertently activated technology from Command & Conquer: Red Alert in one of the vaults, including a Chronosphere. A chrono vortex threw Yuri back in time. Yuri was the result of Nod's psychic experimentations and an acolyte of Kane. This would make Command & Conquer: Red Alert 2 another branch of the timeline.[4]
Not that much is known about the plot afterwards, but it is known that it included the Scrin coming to Earth, lured by the Scrin rebels stealing the Tacitus, and also CABAL as a faction of its own. The Scrin believed that Tiberium would kill off humans, but didn't account for the effect it had on some humans, the Forgotten. They were able to harness Tiberium's energies themselves, able to direct them against the Scrin, nullifying their powers or even controlling ion storms. They were supposed to be a playable faction in an expansion pack for Incursion.[citation needed]
The game was to feature four factions - GDI, Nod, a CABAL faction and the Scrin. It is unknown if the Scrin were intended as a playable side, although concepts for a Scrin trooper exist.
Not all of the ideas from Westwood were scrapped. The idea of CABAL's faction was recycled in Kane's Wrath as the Marked of Kane, but it was loyal to Kane and the Brotherhood. However, all that CABAL itself was used for was merging with LEGION. The designs for GDI and Nod power plants, as well as civilian architecture and vehicles were almost completely copied from Tiberian Incursion to Tiberium Wars.

It's a matter of conscience
Family planning is under attack. The decision by the federal Department of Health and Human Services to require most employers to cover preventive health care for women, including family planning at no extra cost, has met with intense opposition from conservative forces.
Leading the charge have been the nation's 260 Catholic bishops. Their coordinated campaign follows several efforts to defund Planned Parenthood, despite all the fine work that organization does for health care in general and women's reproductive health in particular.
Archbishop of New York Timothy Dolan has been beating the drum, calling for Catholics to protest the HHS decision on the grounds that it violates "religious liberty."
"Never before has the federal government forced individuals and organizations to go out into the marketplace and buy a product that violates their conscience," Dolan said.
Despite this doomsday rhetoric, the federal government is doing no such thing. The conscience exemptions for religious employers that the HHS adopted are similar to a state law that has been in place since 2002, without there being any precipitous decline in religious liberty in New York.
When contraceptive coverage for employees was made state law, the New York State Conference of Catholic Bishops said, "Catholic institutions will continue for the immediate future providing the contraception coverage under formal protest."
Shortly thereafter, Catholic Charities filed suit for an expanded exemption in New York and lost three times in the state courts, and the U.S. Supreme Court rejected their appeal in 2007.
The courts could not find a reason to justify denying this benefit to employees. The courts preserved a long-standing distinction: religiously affiliated institutions, like schools and hospitals, do not get the exemption because they are very different from religious institutions like churches, which were, and are, exempted from some laws, including this one. Following the decisions, everyone went back to work, where they got insurance coverage for contraception, and the hysterical, unsubstantiated claims about trampling of religious liberty were quieted.
Nine years later, the bishops have announced they will appeal the HHS decision, too. There's not much new. It is important that those who listen to the bishops' argument know what they are speaking for. It's not religious liberty, at least not as most Americans and Catholics understand the concept.
The bishops' idea of "religious liberty" means that one narrow interpretation of one religious tradition will be allowed to run roughshod over the religious beliefs of every single American while continuing to take millions of dollars of federal and state public funds to do so.
Catholics believe that each person has a conscience, an inviolable inner core that informs our decisionmaking and compels each of us to act in the way that we have decided is morally correct. Many American women, and most Catholic women, choose to use birth control, and in doing so reject the bishops' opposition to it. In fact, 98 percent of sexually active Catholic women have used a form of birth control banned by the Vatican, according to the National Survey of Family Growth, a report sponsored by the Centers for Disease Control.
If the bishops' idea of "religious liberty" doesn't take into account all of these women, their partners and their families, nor Americans with different faiths or no faith, then everyone should beware of getting in line behind their Pied Piper call to defend freedom of religion.
Just as "freedom of speech" is no defense for shouting "fire" in a crowd when there's no fire, "religious liberty" is no defense for discriminating against women because of where they work, especially when there's no interference with anyone's religious belief or practice. If the alarmist predictions of a world hostile to religious liberty are not evident in New York after nearly a decade of a similar policy, it may be because contraceptive coverage actually protects the religious liberty of most people.

Excerpt: 'Why Good People Do Bad Things: How To Stop Being Your Own Worst Enemy'
Author Debbie Ford discusses the forces that drive us in her new book.
March 10, 2008 -- In her new book, best-selling author Debbie Ford tries to explain "Why Good People Do Bad Things: How To Stop Being Your Own Worst Enemy." The book delves into the forces that compel people to live by their values and the ones that hold people back while sabotaging their dreams. Ford specifically talks about the beach-ball effect, which she says is the way suppressed emotions eventually rise to the surface and reveal the the origins of self-destructive behavior.
Find out more information by reading the excerpt below.
The Beach-Ball Effect
"Why Good People Do Bad Things" is a powerful inquiry into the hidden forces that drive us to commit unbelievable acts of self-sabotage and self-destruction. We've all heard the stories; they show up on the evening news, on the front page of newspapers, and as headlines in the weekly tabloids: the Olympic sports hero who falls from grace after being accused of injecting steroids; the TV evangelist who gets arrested for soliciting prostitutes; the schoolteacher who carries on an affair with one of her students; or the baseball star who gambles on his own games. These are the public demonstrations of good people who have gone astray, and they have become our national obsession. But countless other acts of self-destruction and unthinkable acts of cruelty take place, unbeknownst to us, in our own backyards: the successful eye surgeon who gambles his kids' college tuition away; the public official who takes a bribe; the PTA mom who is having an affair with her best friend's husband; the hospital administrator who commits insurance fraud; or the financial manager who embezzles money from his clients. These are people whom most of their peers would consider good people, not common criminals, psychopaths, or sociopaths whose histories might predict their unscrupulous behavior. These are people like you and me, people who started out with big dreams for their future. But despite their good intentions, these so-called good people did some very bad things, most often without even understanding why.
Our society is rampant with acts of self-destruction that leave most of us perplexed and asking, "Why did he or she do that? Why did I do this? How could this happen?" Self-sabotage is the proverbial hammer over the head that finally wakes us up, demanding that we pay attention. For most of us, it takes something devastating to crack us open, to get us out of our minds and into our hearts. It takes the pain of a broken heart and shattered dreams to push us beyond the limited realities we have created for ourselves.
We are spiritual beings whether we want to admit it or not, and inherent in our DNA is a design to return us home -- home to our true essence, our greatest self, our limitless self. One of the ways we unconsciously ensure our return is through pain. Pain is the greatest motivator for change. It is the spiritual crowbar that pries open the door to new realities. Would we look into our deeper selves, dwell in them, grapple with them, inquire into them, and initiate change in our lives if everything was perfect? More than likely we would just continue living day by day in the comfort of our familiar worlds.
Self-sabotage is a catalyst that can change our world in an instant. We can go from arrogant and blind to humble and open -- in just a matter of seconds. The pain we cause ourselves is a tremendous spiritual gift. When explored and understood for its true purpose, the pain of our own self-sabotage reveals new and uncharted territories that can change the course of our lives.
The Underbelly of the Human Psyche
The underbelly of the human psyche, what is often referred to as our dark side, is the origin of every act of self-sabotage. Birthed out of shame, fear, and denial, it misdirects our good intentions and drives us to unthinkable acts of self-destruction and not-so-unbelievable acts of self-sabotage.
Shame and denial feed our dark side for one simple reason. If we accepted our weaknesses, flaws, and shortcomings as a natural part of our humanity, we would have the ability to ask for help when we are confronted with an impulse that we don't know how to deal with. We would recognize that these dark impulses -- such as the urge to have sex with people other than our spouse, to take money that doesn't belong to us, or to lie in order to better position ourselves -- are a natural part of our humanity that needs to be understood and embraced. But because these urges are left unexplored and unexamined, they get wrapped in shame and denial and kept hidden in the dark. And it is there that our shadow self, the unwanted and denied aspects of ourselves, gathers more power until a blowup is inevitable.
Every aspect of ourselves that we've denied, every thought and feeling that we've deemed unacceptable and wrong, eventually makes itself known in our lives. When we are busy building a business, creating a family, or taking care of those we love, when we are too busy to pay attention to our emotions, we have to hide our dark impulses and shame-filled qualities, which leaves us at risk for an external explosion. In a matter of minutes, when we least expect it, a rejected or unwanted aspect of ourselves can pop up and destroy our lives, our reputations, and all of our hard work. This is what I call the Beach-Ball Effect.
Think of the amount of energy it takes to hold an inflated beach ball underwater for an extended period of time. The moment you relax or take your attention away from keeping it submerged, the ball will bounce back up and splash water in your face. The Beach-Ball Effect is at work when you have suppressed something deep within your psyche, stored it in the recesses of your subconscious, and then, just when you think everything is going your way, something happens: You send a slanderous e-mail to the wrong colleague. You get lured into betraying someone you love for a night of meaningless passion.
You get behind the wheel of a car after having three drinks and get arrested for drunk driving. You get caught dipping into your family's trust fund. You fly off into a rage in front of your new lover. You make an inappropriate comment that costs you your job. You blow an important deadline right before your big review. You haul off and hit your child in a moment of frustration. . . . In other words, the beach ball -- your repressed urges and your unprocessed pain -- pops up and hits you in the face, sabotaging your dreams, robbing you of your dignity, and leaving you drenched in shame.
How many more blatant acts of self-sabotage do we have to witness to understand the devastating effects of denying and suppressing our unprocessed emotional garbage? Don Imus is a perfect example. Here is a man who worked hard to become one of biggest radio and TV celebrities in the country over the course of thirty-five years -- his entire career was based on communication. And in less than one minute the reputation he had spent years building was destroyed. The beach ball bounced up and hit him in the face.
Mel Gibson built the persona of someone who takes a moral and ethical stand for others and creates movies with strong spiritual messages. And although he vehemently denied accusations of anti-Semitism in his movie "The Passion of the Christ," in one drunken tirade the attitudes and beliefs that were hidden in his shadow couldn't be held down. When pulled over and arrested for driving under the influence, he shamed himself with a barrage of outrageous statements.
There are countless ways for the beach ball to pop up and smack us back into reality. It could be something as small as picking a fight with your husband right before you are about to go out on a long-overdue date, or criticizing your child in front of her friends after spending months trying to build her trust. It might be procrastinating on updating your résumé and missing a huge opportunity, or spending a night in front of the refrigerator after dieting for three months. Maybe it manifests itself as oversleeping and missing your best friend's bridal shower or calling your lover by the wrong name. Maybe it's making a smart-ass comment to yourself while thinking someone had already hung up the phone when actually they had not. As long as we are unwilling to look at the beach balls that are lying just beneath the surface of our consciousness, we will unknowingly have to live in fear of the moment they will pop up and the effects they will have on our lives and the lives of others when they do. And believe me, it is a rare case when we are the only ones who get hurt; more often than not, our unprocessed pain will hurt many people. Many lives will be inconvenienced, many hearts will be broken, and some nearby innocent spectators will get caught in the splash.
Let's think of our suppressed emotions and disowned qualities as human lava. Lava exists beneath the surface of the earth. If there are no steam vents at the earth's surface to release the pressure of the powerful force that lies beneath, its only outlet comes in the form of an eruption. Likewise, within our psyches our dark urges and impulses build up, and unless we find safe, healthy ways to release them, they express themselves in inappropriate and potentially dangerous ways. By acknowledging, accepting, and embracing our dark side, we create natural steam vents within ourselves. By providing an opening, we eliminate the worry about an explosion because we are allowing the pressure to be released in a safe and appropriate way. But when it is concealed in darkness, repressed out of shame, and denied out of fear, the shadow has no choice but to erupt. The mental and emotional outpouring that follows has less to do with our circumstances and who is around us than it does with our need to release the pressure.
Our psyches naturally seek a release from the internal pressure caused by the repression of the disowned aspects of ourselves. This is why we are so obsessed with bad news, bad behavior, and especially the media's stories that exploit the downfall of people who are at the top of their game. Each time we hear one of these shocking tales of greed, lust, perversion, stupidity, deceit, or betrayal, we unconsciously get some internal release and relief from the pressure of our own dark side. When we see someone famous who is accused of molesting a thirteen-year-old boy, suddenly our own fascination with porn seems to pale in comparison. When our city councilwoman is caught shoplifting, cheating on our taxes seems insignificant. This obsession with darkness and failure in the media allows us to take momentary shelter in the hope that we are not as horrible as those we see portrayed around us. Yet our fascination with their darkness tells a different story.
Consider the proliferation of reality television shows that allow us to voyeuristically observe the competitive, petty, and often mean-spirited behavior of the colorful cast of characters. We would not be so intrigued, so engrossed, and so compelled if we did not possess the same urges and instincts. When we are projecting onto others and judging their behaviors, our own suddenly don't seem that bad. Sometimes we look to the dark side of those around us for a sense of camaraderie and belonging. We see their shadow, and at some unconscious level we feel relieved that we are not the only ones who are acting out in that way. If we want to ensure that our dark side does not become the driving force behind our actions, we must first unravel the inner workings of our human operating system: what's included in the hard wiring, built in to every human being, and what is added on later as the software that gets programmed into each one of us. We must expose the two contradictory forces that exist within each of us: the force that compels us to expand our ability to give and receive love, to heed our inner voice and be a contributing member of our community -- and the force that holds us back, sabotages our best efforts, and repeatedly steers us in a direction that is inconsistent with our highest goals and deepest values. This is the time to open our eyes to why good people -- hardworking, committed, well-meaning, churchgoing, contributory people -- do bad things; and to look with honest eyes at how we become our own worst enemy.

South San Francisco
South San Francisco is located to the south of San Francisco, as its name implies, but it is an independent city. It is part of the San Francisco Peninsula within San Mateo County of California. The city has a total area of just over 30 square miles and a population of about 64,000 residents. Because of its location, South San Francisco is frequently referred to by the nickname "South City". One interesting thing to note, however, is that although South San Francisco is in fact to the south of San Francisco, the two cities are not connected as Brisbane separates them from each other. South San Francisco has the history of being an industrial city and in fact, there is a sign on Signal Hill announcing it. On this hill is the famous South San Francisco Hillside Sign saying "South San Francisco, The Industrial City." This sign has even been listed as part of the National Register of Historic Places. Although it is not as large a tourist destination as nearby San Francisco, South San Francisco does have its fair share of attractions with its Downtown area being a popular destination. There is also a local farmer's market during the summer months and multiple parks and pathways throughout the city.

I come from a family of writers, and today my brother, David Page, expressed perfectly what it is that I and so many other Bostonians are feeling:
I moved to Seattle in June of '95 and have lived here for most of the past 17 years. I have always maintained that although this great city has become home, Boston is also home. I'm not sure how you can have home in two locations, but it is true nonetheless. The events of this past week, starting with the Boston Marathon and continuing today with the massive manhunt and killing of one of the two terrorists involved, brought forth a surge of pride in me. I am proud of the people of Boston, continuing to show the same strength of spirit they have shown for four hundred years. I love Seattle, but it is not Boston… apples and oranges.
I am from Boston. And the truth is that everyone who is from Boston, regardless of where they move to and where they live, IS and will always be a Bostonian. I am proud of the city of my birth and proud of its indomitable spirit. And my final thought… NO ONE messes with Boston!

Midway and Epic's upcoming Titan Pack for Unreal Tournament 3 has received a fair amount of attention lately, thanks in large part to the heavy amount of content/game upgrades it's set to provide, but the biggest news about the upcoming DLC is that it's going to be available for free on both the PS3 and PC.
The download, which will be made available on March 5th, is set to feature a huge amount of new features, recently detailed by The Escapist when Epic invited a number of game journalists to its North Carolina headquarters for a preview. To be included are "6 new maps, two new game types, new weapons, characters, vehicles, power-ups, etc.—not to mention a host of UI, interface and performance improvements. On the other hand, it lets your character morph into a giant, 30-foot-tall monster and ground-slam everyone in your vicinity into piles of quivering giblets."
While it certainly sounds like the Titan Pack will be a ton of fun for anyone who gets it, it's only available for the PS3 and PC platforms; 360 gamers won't be able to get it in the foreseeable future. When asked by Joystiq about the possibility of the content being made available on Xbox Live, the publisher issued the following response: "Given the file size requirements for updates on the Xbox 360 platform, we have no plans to release the Titan Pack for Xbox 360." The Titan Pack is set to be approximately 1GB in size.

Hey! haha This is so confusing!
I agree with the people who gave theories! I mean all of that could be possible! I SO did not understand the ending but I think I got it now...correct me if I am wrong anyone!
( which I am almost positive I will be! LOL)
Ok, When Mark landed in 'apeworld' and changed everything...he changed the future of Earth. So when he goes back it shows how the apes inhabitated Earth and live like humans. And somehow Thade came to Earth and trained all the uncivilzed apes or something?
Oh my gosh... I think I just confused myself all over again! How horrible! Help me please! haha Thank you so much!

Well... there are a few holes in that last theory:
1. The planet he landed on by mistake is not known by anyone else on earth nor is it charted anywhere. Therefore, none of his doings on THAT planet can effect the future of EARTH which is light-years away.
2. Leo flies BACK in time (from FUTURE to PRESENT) and BACK to earth. In no way can the FUTURE of the ape planet affect the PRESENT of Leo's planet. UNLESS, of course, an element (human or ape) returns early enough in the PAST to change the course of history... in this case, it might even be prior to Leo's departure into space... or Leo's birth for that matter!
Have I confused you all enough?!?!
Or should I keep on rambling?!

ok-- i didn't really get the endin either.. but this is what i think.... ok when he crashed.. he was half way between earth and planet of the apes.. so when he flew back to earth, he had to go further since he was already half way when he crashed... so when he landed again... it was further in time.. and apes ruled the earth again... but also.. if that doesn't make sense lol.. remember that the ape told Leo no matter where he goes Gen. Thade will be sure to follow him.. and sure enough there they were!

Hey ya! I wasn't to thrilled with the POTA ending. But of course, it is the amazing Tim Burton we are talking about and he ALWAYS leaves us with something to ponder. If I could write an alternate ending...I would have Mark (Leo) and his monkey go back to their original place in time and tell all the people about where he had just been and what had happened. Then he and the whole crew would all go through time into the future, back to the "Apeworld," BUT, when he goes back...it's not really an apeworld anymore because since he goes back to his ship then it kinda erases all that happened with the crash of the ship and the start of CALIMA. Okay, getting this? So Mark (Leo) meets Ari except she is not an ape...she is a beautiful woman...but you know its her...and he knows it's her...and are you getting my drift?! I'm rambling...of course there would have to be some creative writing of the inbetweens here...but I think I'm on to something.
Also, sorry to say...just MY opinion, but the blonde had no real purpose in that movie and when he goes back to kiss her like they were so passionately in love or something, that's what made no sense to me. The two of them had no real connection. I think she was there for the "glamour" that's pushing it but, I really didn't see the point to her character being there at all. She could have been a man or even that boy who kinda idled Leo and it would have made a better story. Okay, okay...don't bash me over my opinion...it's just an opinion.
Take care all!

Actually Jen, I totally agree with you about the Estella Warren role. (Damn, can't even REMEMBER her characters name! What does THAT tell you?!)
She was nothing but scantily clad female window dressing, as far as I can see.
Pity, as HBC's role of Ari was actually quite well written and showed the most character development. (Compared to others, and I'm including Leo here as well. As much of a visionary as Burton is, scripting and plot are NOT his strong points.
Don't hit me!

i see ur point about the plotting and scripting but he was working off of the old one, which wasnt really that good ne way...in my opionion, but i wouldnt say that he's bad at it cuz i dont really know how to do it well! lol
also the estella warren character totally unnecessary! i guess it was so guys could come and see ehr w/barely ne clothes on oh speaking of that!!!.......
have ne of u seen the old one??? charlton heston had to wear a loin cloth the whole movie and yet mark wahlberg has to wear pants and a long slleve shirt the whole time?!?!?!? wut the heck is up w/that???????
also w/the ending i still dont get it cuz he said that the only "apes" left on earth were in his ship w/them at the begining, so how did they get back to earth to evolve1 so confused...

Okay...I'm so glad I'm not the only one who feels that way about Estella's character. My guy friend even said she was probably on the set as the coffee girl and maybe to give some visual stimulation to all the hard working males and then somebody decided that ah heck let's throw her in and give her a few one liners. Now Ari on the other hand, was the best. She played her part so well and showed so much passion for what she beleived and I think her role was outstanding. In fact, that goes to say for ALL the roles of the apes! And let's not forget Mark...no matter what character he plays, he gives it his all. Bravo!
And the ending, well like I said before, it's Tim's way of leaving us with something to ponder and hoping for a sequel to explain it.
Take care!

ok i didn't quite understand the ending but this is what my uncle said... ok when he first landed on the ape planet he went into the future and when his little monkey came to save him he tried to travel back to the time and place where he first had his departure but didn't go back in time far enough and landed on earth with the monkey stil ruling.

My friend Desiree told me that she heard in some hollywood news article that what happened is this:
Remember when At the end MArk was going back to that space magigithingi, well that ape guy who sells everything *aspirin*, had things in his bag, that no one knew he took.. well anywayz she said that somehow he must've went back in time and changed it so it would be better for the apes and thats why they mentioned his name or something on the memorial.. I cant remember the exact thing she said, but it was something like that.. um..when she said it, it made perfect sense, i just dont remember..later

hey i know what the ending means-
when leo went through the time vortex he was mearly sent to earth in the year 2400 and the time vortex changed the shape of the earth adding new moons and stuff (done by directer to sorta blur out the ending) then when leo goes back thourgh the time warp everything changes back to normal except for the ape civillisation and the reason behind thades statue is to show that Attar or somebody freed him and they rebelled against the humans and he is now there social statue of hope as the lincoln memorial is today.
(also reference to battle for the planet of the apes)
To sum up he was on earth all along it just looks different because of the time vortex (to tie in with the original movie)then lands back on her earth 300 years or so after he left and the earth is still inhabited by apes and thade is there social figure.
Hope That Helps

Philippines: UN releases US$25 million to fund emergency response
TitlePhilippines: UN releases US$25 million to fund emergency response
The United Nations today announced an emergency allocation of US$25 million to fund critical relief efforts in the wake of Super Typhoon Haiyan, which carved a trail of destruction across the Central Philippines on 8 November.
Speaking at a press briefing in New York today, OCHA's Director of Operations John Ging said that almost 9.8 million people are now believed to have been affected. He said the allocation from the UN Central Emergency Response Fund (CERF) would allow agencies to respond quickly to the needs of communities across the affected region.
"We've all seen the pictures coming through – the scale of devastation is massive. Therefore we require the mobilization of a massive response," he said. He added that the CERF allocation "is to enable humanitarian agencies to mobilize their response as quickly as feasible."
Of the 9.8 million affected, the Philippines Government and the UN estimate that approximately 660,000 people have been forced from their homes. The number of casualties continues to increase with officials in Leyte Province reporting that as many as 10,000 people may have died in Tacloban City alone.
The CERF announcement comes ahead of the planned launch in Manila tomorrow of a Flash Appeal for emergency funds, at an event attended by representatives from the Government and humanitarian agencies.
Tacloban city: "There was no time to react"
In Tacloban City, Typhoon Haiyan sent a surge of sea water through low-lying barangays (neighbourhoods which reached the second floor of some buildings.
Father-of-four and local official, Melvin Tan, says that people there are used to flooding. But this time was different. "There was no time to react," he told a UN Disaster Assessment and Coordination (UNDAC) team.
He said that within 10 minutes the water was chest-deep. On the neighbouring plot of land, where about 100 families live, people were forced to make a "human ladder" to climb over the concrete wall into Melvin's plot. They sent babies, children and people with disabilities first.
Melvin said that the store that he owns has been ruined. All of his stock was washed away or destroyed in the flood, and he does not know if any of it was insured. He believes it will be months before he can re-open.
UN and aid teams spreading out across affected area
While the picture is becoming clearer in Tacloban City, the situation in more remote areas is still being assessed. UNDAC teams have been dispatched to the south and north of Tacloban City. Another team was also sent to Iloilo Province, to the west of Tacloban.
Residents of Iloilo's Ajuy municipality told the team that storm surges reached up to four metres. Roads are littered with debris, making many other municipalities inaccessible.
Authorities in Negros Oriental Province have also reported significant damage to homes. In Cadiz City about 5,000 houses and nearly all corn and sugar crops were destroyed in the storm and the nearby city of Sagay was also severely affected. Shelter repair supplies are urgently needed to allow people to begin the long press of rebuilding their homes.

Food for Change: 5 Food Groups Doing Great Work
Profiles on causes and organizations that are addressing issues of poverty, poor health, and food access.
Editor's note: In "Food for Change," we'll profile groups out there connecting people to better food access. In this series we want to applaud the passionate people and organizations doing meaningful work with food in their communities. Please share tips for others to include in this column in the comments below.
- ioby is a new donation platform for community environmental projects that need seed funding. Similar to Kickstarter, the site lets you choose a worthy project—in your neighborhood, or anywhere in the country—and donate money to their cause. You can also donate to the organization as a whole. Causes include community gardens, beautification projects, urban farms, recycling campaigns, and more.
- Want to address world hunger and eat delicious granola, at the same time? Impact Foods will donate a hunger pack through their partner, Edesia Global Nutrition Solutions, for every bag of granola purchased. The company aspires to blend philanthropy with food service, and their granola is made of 100% natural ingredients.
- The National Gardening Association's Adopt a School Garden program allows donors to directly support the growth and development of a school garden. Gardens can be incorporated into curriculum so students can learn necessary academic skills in an alternative, beautiful setting. They also provide a natural opportunity for teaching young children how to grow their own veggies.
- Cookies for Kids' Cancer organizes bake sales across the country to raise money for pediatric cancer research. The group provides plenty of resources and tips for getting started with your own bake sale, and also sells pre-made cookies through their online store. Donations to this 501c(3) are tax-deductible, and the group has already raised thousands for their cause.
- The Full Belly Project funds simple agricultural machines that help small farmers around the world increase their productivity and thus their income. Smallholders are among the poorest and hungriest people in the world, and even a simple peanut sheller or solar-powered water pump can make the difference between a healthy diet and hunger for those families.
About the Author: A student in Providence, Rhode Island, Leah Douglas loves learning about, talking about, reading about, and consuming food. Her work has also been featured in Rhode Island Monthly Magazine.

by Joan Nathan
We scoured the 'net for a lowfat soufganiyot recipe for our calorie conscious Jewish Hostesses and we found Joan Nathan's great recipe
to share. I wasnt sure if my kids would love the apricot filling so I bought caramel and custard filling from Kitchen Caboodles on Avenue P in Brooklyn.
Baked Soufganiyot–Low Fat Israeli Hanukkah Jelly Doughnuts
This recipe serves: 24
- 1 package dry yeast (1 scant tablespoon)
- 3 tablespoons sugar
- 1/4 cup lukewarm water
- 3 1/2 cups unbleached all-purpose flour (approximately)
- 1 cup lukewarm skim milk
- 1 large egg
- 1 egg yolk
- pinch of salt
- grated zest of one lemon
- 3 tablespoons reduced fat butter, at room temperature
- 1/2 cup apricot jam or caramel, chocolate, or custard filling.
- confectioner's or granulated sugar for rolling
1. Dissolve the yeast and 1 tablespoon of the sugar in the water.
2. Put the flour in the bowl of a food processor equipped with a steel blade. Add the dissolved yeast, milk, egg, egg yolk, salt, lemon zest and the remaining 2 tablespoons of sugar. Process until blended. Add the butter and process until the dough becomes sticky yet elastic.
3. Remove the dough to a bowl, cover and let rise in a warm place for at least an hour. If you want to prepare the dough in advance, place it in the refrigerator overnight, then let it warm to room temperature before rolling and cutting.
4. Grease 2 cookie sheets. Dust a pastry board with flour. Roll the dough out to a 1/2-inch thickness. Using the top of a glass as a cutter, cut into rounds about 2-inches in diameter and roll these into balls. Place the balls about 1 to 1 1/2-inches apart on the greased cookie sheets. Cover and let rise 30 minutes more.
5. Preheat the oven to 375°F. Bake the doughnuts for 12 to 15 minutes or until they're golden. Remove from the oven and let cool.
6. Soften the jam in a food processor. Using an injector, insert a teaspoon of jam into each doughnut. Roll the soufganiyot in confectioner's or granulated sugar and serve immediately.

Less waste and lower costs
New eco-friendly metal blasting process
Until recently, Endress+Hauser used 60 metric tons of glass beads every year for the surface treatment of flowmeters. By changing the blasting agent to stainless steel shot, only 2 tons are accumulated now. This innovation is good for the environment and saves resources.
Thousands of flowmeters for industrial process measurement engineering alone are made at Endress+Hauser's Reinach site in Switzerland. One step of the production involves welding together the two halves of the housings, causing reddish discolorations at the welding seams. "These 'temper colors' caused by the heat must be removed completely using blasting agents.
If we didn't do that, atmospheric effects would corrode and destroy the untreated patches in no time," explains Boris Lauton, in charge of operating the grit blasting systems.
Following extensive tests, in 2012 Endress+Hauser decided to replace glass beads with stainless steel shot as the blasting agent for the cleaning process. This change has paid dividends in more ways than one – both in terms of the consumption and disposal of blasting material and health and safety.
Safer work – less dust
Owing to the higher specific weight, cleaning with stainless steel shot generates substantially less dust than glass beads. The enhanced cleanliness increases safety levels in production and minimizes the risk of the dust being inhaled by the operators.
Environmentally friendly – less waste
With as little as 2 metric tons of metal powder per year, the use of stainless steel blasting material generates far less waste, compared to 60 tons of glass powder which cannot be recycled and must be disposed of as special waste. Also, the cost of disposing of glass powder, at 22,000 euros annually, is substantially higher than for stainless steel blasting agents.
Gentler process – less abrasion
Metal shot stresses the blasting agent systems to a far lesser degree than glass beads. The life of covers, hoses and blasting nozzles is increased by as much as tenfold.
Boris Lautons sums up: "The converted systems are not only good for the environment and save resources, but they are also substantially more cost-effective."

Biometric systems have been touted as the next big thing in computer security for the past several years, despite the fact that some of them—fingerprint scanners, for example—have proven to be incredibly easy to bypass, requiring little more, in some cases, than some scotch tape and a bit of patience. Facial-recognition scanners have been a hot commodity on laptops of late, but researchers scheduled to present at the ongoing Black Hat DC conference this week have demonstrated that current implementations have flaws of their own.
The researchers were able to bypass Lenovo's Veriface III, Asus' SmartLogon V1.0.0005, and Toshiba's Face Recognition 220.127.116.11, even with each program set for maximum security. Information on exactly which programs were bypassed by which methods is presumably contained within the team's full documentation, which is not available as of publication time.
According to Dark Reading, a variety of attack vectors ultimately proved successful, including photo substitution (using a photo of the actual owner) as well as brute-force attacks in which multiple images of different people were presented to the scanner. The latter technique apparently requires at least a moderate period of time to execute; the attacker has no way of knowing in advance which photo(s) will prove capable of bypassing the security sensor. Based on their findings, the security team recommends that the applications be overhauled.
One of the team members presenting at Black Hat, Nguyen Minh Duc, had harsher words for the various affected OEMs. "There is no way to fix this vulnerability," Dark Reading reports Duc saying. "Asus, Lenovo, and Toshiba have to remove this function from all the models of their laptops... [they] must give an advisory to users all over the world: stop using this [biometric] function."
Duc's criticism seems unduly alarmist, though the fact that images that have been digitized and printed can be used to fool the sensor is a further weakness in these systems. Biometric scanners in their current form are far from perfect, but then again, most users choose passwords that can be brute-forced within minutes. Just as any given computer user could theoretically choose a 24-digit sequence of randomized characters for a password, a laptop OEM could probably pair an ultra-high resolution camera with an exacting set of guidelines to create a detection system that could pick up on whether or not you had clipped your nose hairs this morning.
The problem with 24-digit completely random character strings as passwords is that they're hard to remember, and the problem with ultra-high resolution scan that's then compared against a pre-saved RAW image is that the camera would be unforgiving and it might take ten minutes to login. In order to make a comparison and login quickly, a scanner must therefore be calibrated to accept a significant degree of "error" when performing an analysis against its baseline image.
As image comparison technology improves and the quality of built-in cameras increases, facial scanners will probably become harder to fool. Alternatively, it may be possible to "train" them to hone in on particular facial features: the shape of a person's smile, the amount of space between their eyes (or the shape of the eyes themselves), and any other distinctive/striking mark or shape might be integrated into a computer's identification protocol when determining if you are really you. Even in these cases, however, it would still be theoretically possible to fool the scanner.
It may be true that biometric scanners are being mismarketed, but the relevant standard should be whether these newfangled options provide a level of protection that's at least as good as a standard login/password. If we're honest with ourselves and admit that normal computer users pick passwords that provide them with a level of security equivalent to that which the Maginot Line provided France, it's clear that the bar is one notch above sitting on the floor.
Biometric sensors need to be improved and they probably need to be combined with other methods of authentication (biometric or otherwise) in order to be completely effective, but I'm not convinced Asus, Lenovo, and Toshiba should all collectively dump their services. Kudos to Asus, by the way, for providing far more information on its SmartLogon service than I was able to quickly locate at Lenovo or Toshiba's sites, but the company hears a knock for claiming: "In case you are wondering, ASUS notebooks with ASUS SmartLogon with face recognition technology can distinguish people from pictures." Of the three, only Lenovo's copy implies that users may still want to use other secure verification methods; VeriFace "lets you use the unique features of your face to add a new level of security to your system." Asus and Toshiba both explicitly position their biometric authentication systems as a replacement for other security options.
Alternatively, we could ditch all this amateur stuff and go straight for retina scans and blood samples. At least if we went this route we'd quickly identify any Changelings or broken ladders in our midst.

Update: Concept posters removed by request of the artist.
If you've been lying await at night, wondering what on God's green earth Keanu Reeves might look like as a ghost-hunting samurai in the mostly Japanese film 47 Ronin, congratulations! Thanks to a slew of potential movie posters, you finally have your answer: Qui-Gon Jinn. I mean, exactly. It's super weird. Even weirder than seeing Ted "Theodore" Logan in a kimono, and that's pretty weird. There are a bevy of other posters below, including more

Minority-Owned Business Finds Growth and Success with 8(a) Certification
Originally in the painting business, Jack Roper, now 65 years old, has many years experience in the construction business in Birmingham and St. Petersburg, FL. He owns Southeastern Industrial Construction, a $28 million annual revenue company headquartered in Pelham. He employs roughly 80 employees, but that number grows with job contracts and the use of subcontractors.
Jack is married, and has three grown children.
Some years ago, he owned another company, Roper Painting, now subsumed into his current, larger business. His painting firm was hired to do some subcontract work by a more experienced master contractor. That gentleman asked Jack if he had minority participation. He didn't although he employed many minority workers. The master contractor's advice was instrumental in changing Jack's approach to his business.
When he started his new company, Southeastern Industrial Construction, Roper sought and gained 8(a) certification after his company worked on the Air National Guard complex at the Birmingham Airport. That designation has been since the source of many additional jobs, and an important reason for his company's success.
"Gaining that designation was one of my most important business decisions," Jack emphasizes. "Without it, I won't be anywhere near the success we now have. It literally opened many doors to jobs I won't have qualified for before we were certified."
Jack was also quick to credit a close friend who helped him through the rough times of starting his new business. "Without his help, I won't have been able to even start," Jack said. "I am indebted to him."
Southeastern Industrial Construction has since worked on many projects in Alabama. Among them are Legion Field's renovation and the Anniston Army Depot. Jack's values permeate the firm's operations.
"I firmly believe in delivering good work at a fair price and on time," Roper added. "As a business owner, if you commit yourself to be fair to your customers, they will come back to you for additional work. And that is the source of staying in business for the long haul be fair to your customers, to your employees, and to yourself."
"Making a killing on any one job is the way some construction firms operate. But that's not my way," Jack stressed.
He also credited much of his firm's success to hiring good people. "I have found I am not the smartest person, but I know how to hire the right people and put them in the right positions," Roper said.
He follows another rule: be able to get 50 percent of any job's work done using 25 percent of the money. "That way," he added, "you have most of the money (75%) for use during any job's most difficult part, finishing to the customer's satisfaction."
Jack was especially grateful for his luck in being in the right place at the right time. We are grateful, too. Southeastern Industrial Construction is an asset to Birmingham and to Alabama. Congratulations on your success story.

With summer holidays nearly upon us loads more people will be coming into London. More bands will be playing. More crazy events will taking place. But where on earth do you start looking to find out what's going on, and a bit about it?
Most of the gig "guides" you'll find on the web or in print for that matter, tell you stuff about things you probably already know about and basically work as shopfronts for Mean Fiddler, Clear Channel, SJM, etc, whilst leaving everything else as a list of names, lost in some lucky-dip matrix. That's just not on.
So about 8 months ago DiS Editor Sean set-up Defragmention (D-Frag for shot), as an attempt "to put into an optimal order" the hundreds of gigs that go on in the capital each week, with quick fire summaries based on hearing/seeing the bands previously. Thus, stopping people wasting their time going to see rubbish. Plus it gives him a chance to rant at the world, raining propaganda directly into people's inboxes.
It's totally FREE. It comes out every Monday. So, what're you waiting for?
powered by Mojo Mail
Send your gig listings to firstname.lastname@example.com.
Discover. Enjoy. Tell your friends.
p.s. If you want something a such more comprehensive and rNr-biased, check out the original London gig e-zine ArtRocker but you do have to know your Ten Bensons from your Black Madonnas to get real use out of it!
p.p.s. Can you recommend any other good guides, especially non-London-centric ones?

Pelosi: Share more Syria intelligence with public
The leader of the House Democrats says the public needs to hear more of the intelligence that led the Obama administration to conclude that Syrian President Bashar Assad killed hundreds of his people using chemical weapons.
Nancy Pelosi says Assad's action is, in her words, `behavior outside the circle of civilized human behavior and we must respond."
The California Democrat spoke after congressional leaders met at the White House with President Barack Obama on Tuesday. Obama has asked Congress to vote on authorizing punitive military strikes against the Syrian government in response to its alleged chemical weapons use.

I can help with M4 Sherman. Except, how?
I can help with M4 Sherman. Except, how?
Why can't I do anything?
Tanked is fun. World of Tanks too. I hate cliffs. Why?
Oh yeah. Say .. if you think I suck.
Strengths: Powerful shot, looks like a Skull to scare other people
Best map: Town because it can move around and blast at anyone nearby.
Best mode: Deathmatch because a Sherman with an item (any item, believe me)is invincible to everything but a fatty!
Weaknesses: slow reload, and for some reason rumbles when it moves, so too bad for stealth.
And, you must avoid fattys, rtsofts, and spiders. They can beat you up
Suggested strategy: collect a crate, then fight a tank head-on except a fatty. Go around in medium-large maps to finish off any damaged tanks. They usually don't group together. NEVER attack a group without some backup.
V.S. other tanks: Shouldn't you look at the Tank Store? god, just tell me how to set this up, and I'll edit this post.
Ps- try to attack skulls, panzers, and love tanks. Easy kills.

Hey, I know I've been gone for a couple of months, but I did teach back in the good old days. I got one thing for you to add (for the moment, at least).
My hand position when I play tanked:
Nothing but the thumbs. I play on the Touchpad, and I hold it near the bottom (let's me hold it up and play anywhere). My left thumb is on the steering, and like most left thumbs of people, doesn't leave the screen. I press fire and power-ups with my right thumbs. As for moving the turret, I primarily do that with my right thumb, but I do alternate depending on which thumb is busy (and on rare occasions I bust out my right index finger, but that doesn't happen often).
As for the effectiveness of this, I can prove nothing. Some of my friends could tell you how well it works, based on how well I play. I am going to say it works well, because I play well. But I'll leave that open to the general public.
Add the info if you want, keep up the good--sorry, great work.
Roses are red. Bacon is also red. Poems are hard. Bacon.
strength: reload speed ( shoots fast)
mode : beagles
map: all maps are great for dink Smallwood tank
weakness: does not have a good damage rate
Suggested strategy: since it shoots fast sneak up on another tank and lite them up. Also good for moving around a player while shooting

well sorry god I cannot do the tutorial because I simply have too much to do. I hope you understand.
The best maps for love tank are Egypt and town.Also the weaknesses of the love tank are RTsoft tank and The Fatty.

AnthonyS1C is me.Who are you?Like a great master once said"be you inner self"So im me?
did. It is a break down of the tank.
I also play just like bacon1 and most people and its gotten me all the way to blue so I think it works well and if you need my help at all just ask me and I will do whatever it is.
Don't Fear. The Beast is Here.

Hey god! I am quite experienced, but I've only ever had m3 and m4 (but I am VERY experienced with them), and both those have been taken. I can patch up spelling and grammar on some of them if you like, as I noticed a few were a bit difficult to understand. I will also give my hand position.
Wagwan/Noobie hand position: Uses a case which elevates upper end of iPad. On left hand all fingers underneath the device, and thumb controlling movement, never leaves screen. On right, hand middle, ring and little finger underneath device. Thumb controls shooting and directing. Index finger controls crates. He uses his thumb more than other people. Instead of keeping it going forward all the time, he actually uses it to move around, and only occasionally uses his right hand thumb to move the screen around.
Hope this helps, and let me know if you want me to improve the m4 article, or fix spelling/grammar on any other articles.
I won back pink.
No, you can't have coins. I don't give coins away.
If you like what I am saying, tell me. More importantly, if you don't, LET ME KNOW! I'll be happy to answer any queries about my posts. I don't wish to offend anyone. If you have been offended, I apologise, and will do so again upon notification.
Otherwise... I LOVE TANKED!!
