We're at the very end of Black History Month, and within a few hours it'll be over, and for another 11 months Black Lives will not matter as much as they do today. February is the shortest month of the year, but this year we get an extra day, as if society is telling us "if you're good, we'll give you a little more time." In my head this is said with a wink and maybe a slap on the ass, just another reminder asserting that we don't own our bodies. Of course we don't have control over leap years, but one wonders. When you have learned that everything you've ever known was designed to draw you out and end your existence, you question even the smallest details in the genius of a system.
Before I move on, I'd like to say that I am not Black, something anyone would point out. But much of the privilege that I have comes from NOT being black, as if my entire self-worth is based off of others more unworthy of that privilege.
There is privilege in being 'lighter than', as if anytime I'm around anyone darker I win the privilege lottery. I hid behind the 'lighter than' privilege for years. I hid behind it, and used it for all its worth, hiding in a world where the market for social acceptance does not exist. I was in denial of the market, denying its currency of privilege and that this market dictates almost everything within our lives. Most people believe we live in a materialistic world, but I disagree, we live in a world where currency dictates our lives, each of us seeking more and more privilege and the things that hurt the most are the ones that cause us to lose some of that privilege.
But now, I'm stepping back, meeting that wink with a glare and taking that hand off my ass and saying "No, Thank You!" I will use that privilege that you have given me out of fear of what I can do standing with my black brothers and sisters, to not only be 'not racist,' but anti-racist.
I will lose privilege every step of the way, as I become black-balled from certain communities and called an ingrate for turning my back on my privilege, as I become 'blackified' according to society, and as the summer sun inches closer and my skin becomes darker and darker, until many assume there's something wrong with me because I got a dark tan, as if being one or two shades darker changes what I am.
And it does. It strips some of that privilege away, leaving me bare and naked in the sun, getting darker and darker until they can yell out that they knew it all along, that I was an imposter and they expelled me for my betrayal. The privilege, the unnatural order of things, and the injustice are my entire fault, as if they haven't been there for over 400 years. As if I deserved this, and asked for it.
But this is Black History Month, a history we forget began over 100,000 years ago, with kingdoms and empires that every single one of us called home. Black History Month is not 'their' History, it is Our History. This is where we all came from, a history stripped from us because we believed we are better than our ancestors. Why? Because of the color of their skin? Are we so anti-black that we denounced Our own history?
Keep that in mind the next time you feel uncomfortable celebrating a month to celebrate each and all our blackness, and the oppression and injustice many still face. Think about what you're saying when you turn your back on this history.

Buy electronic cigarettes online
Ideal Electronic Cigarette Preferences Great
Vapor cigarette not just tasks health and wellness advantages yet they also taste good. They empower the cigarette smoker along with the same feel and the preference as supplied by the normal cigarettes.
The cigarette tastes excellent only if its parts know ways to function successfully. Nicotine is available in different concentrations in these cigarettes and it can be decided on hang on the choice of the smoker. The cartridge of the cigarette is fall of nicotine in wanted strength together with the wanted flavor of the individual. When smoking signal is reached to atomizer the option starts heating up. The heated option converts into vapors and water vapor mist is breathed in by the individual and same is exhaled out in the environment. The miss is without lead and tar that is the reason that is not as dangerous for non smokers as routine cigarettes.
Smoking bans disappear active for the cigarette smoking purposes yet this is just when
it comes to electric cigarette
. The real cigarettes are restriction as they were prior to for the general public spots as they are adverse for the healthy and balanced surroundings. Clinical researchers have been conducted in this regard in order to examine the possible results on the human wellness. Remarkably, the outcomes are very better and they are much safer for the health to a better level. A few of the research argue that nicotine in any kind of kind threatens for the health and wellness of the smoker. Recounting the reality that when fluid nicotine undergoes the procedure of evaporation, it has a tendency not to be adverse for the lungs. It does not induce any damage to the breathing unit and units function in conformity whereas in real cigarettes, the lungs begin damaging as smoking period prolongs. Carcinogens are the primary damaging brokers and they frequently induce lungs cancer cells.
Although the components of the best electric cigarette are astounding, but still, they are inexpensive for the smoker.
2 groups of normal cigarette are equivalents to one cartridge of the e-cigarettes. This clearly highlights that how meaningfully, the user can easily spare excellent quantity of money without endangering on the inclination and feel as provide by genuine ones. Additionally, if prices are approximated averagely on annual basis after that, we come to know that they are pocket friendly. Also, when the individual purchases starter kit, it contains added four to five filled cartridges in different tastes in order to satisfy the taste buds of the cigarette smoker by staying in the budget plan.
So, if you are a smoker then you can easily have the very same inclination even in reduced prices by using non reusable choice of the e-cigs. Other than that, nicotine joins differing durability's in these cigarettes and individual can easily take pleasure in the taste of assorted flavors like vanilla, coffee, menthol, fruits and so on. The cigarette smoker is now enriched with tastes of their option to choose. Thing that must be thought about is the high quality as not each cigarette dealing with evaporation principle can easily provide the same smoking feel as through high quality suppliers. So, choosing the best e-cigarette is also important while vamping the feel of cigarette smoking.

Weather: Roads staff pledge to keep Northern Ireland on move as heavy snow looms
As the 'Beast From The East' weather front closes in on Northern Ireland, officials have revealed that 60,000 tonnes of salt are ready for our roads.
With heavy snow forecast for tomorrow and temperatures expected to plummet to below zero, the Met Office has issued a yellow weather warning for snow from Wednesday through to Friday.
- Beast from the east: How to drive in the wintry conditions
- Check out today's weather forecast
- Army of road workers prepare to battle 'Beast from the East'
- Northern Ireland traffic alerts: Travel updates
As well as transport chaos, widespread school closures could be on the cards. Hundreds of flights across Europe have already been cancelled - and that is likely to happen here too.
Emergency plans are being put in place, and a multi-agency teleconference has already been held to co-ordinate the response from departments, councils and utilities to the icy blast from Russia.
The Department for Infrastructure said its winter safety service is ready and prepared to keep people moving on Northern Ireland's roads following this week's wintry weather warning.
Around 300 staff and 130 gritters will be available to salt main roads to keep traffic moving safely and freely.
Twelve specialist snow blowers are also available to be deployed if required.
John Irvine, director of Network Services at the Department for Infrastructure, said: "Our winter service operation ensures that 7,000 kilometres of the road network are salted to keep traffic moving in wintry conditions.
"With a warning for snow and ice currently in place and some disruption on our roads likely, the department's winter service team is fully prepared."
Farmers and contractors will be deployed as required for snow clearance, he said.
"So far this year 86,000 tonnes of salt has been spread on our roads and a further 60,000 tonnes is stockpiled and ready for use. Five thousand salt bins and 50,000 grit piles are available on routes not included on the salting schedule."
Officials said that 28% of the road network will be salted, directly benefiting around 80% of road users.
In the Republic, some supermarket shelves have already been cleared of bread ahead of the imminent storm.
Tesco Ireland was bringing in extra deliveries overnight as consumers flocked to grocery stores to stock up on food. To ensure that there is enough supply to meet demand, the retailer said it was working overnight to ensure the shelves will be fully stocked today.

★ Fake Degrees [INSTANT DEGREES]
There is no need to buy fake degrees when you can buy a REAL, GENUINE degree. Twenty years ago, when the only way to obtain a degree was by taking a bus to a university classroom and preparing for hours on end of being present at lessons, employers most probably did not look very hard at the educational qualifications of those seeking employment as back then very few people had a diploma or degree.
Please note that we do not award any degrees or diplomas; we are the middle-man between you and the issuing college. These registered and accredited, 100% legal educational institutions that award to you a genuine document such as a degree together with transcripts if you have ordered these. You can buy a real, genuine degree through us.
"Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world." ― Nelson Mandela
In the early 90's the invention of of the internet changed the education landscape forever. From then on employers and those seeking seeking employment understood it was a case of change. Company employers all know that selling and marketing is all occurring through the internet nowadays. If they dismiss the internet it will be a disaster for them.
It comes with a 100% No Questions Asked Money-Back Guarantee, so there is NO RISK AT ALL.
And so of course these same businesses who are utilizing the internet in all areas of their business cannot simply and dismiss the notion of a certificate, degree or diploma awarded online from an online university.
It is a fact many people are looking for a postion in the business world who are today so tech savvy that they have decided to opt out of the more traditional learning and have elected to use the internet to gain the necessary qualifications such as a diploma or degree. We do not sell nor recommend you buy a fake degree online. Blending the process: Students today really have the best of both worlds in that they can benefit from utilizing both systems available.
Your degree or diploma which may or may not include transcripts (this decision is up to you) that you order through us can be shown to your current or future employer and they can verify the authenticity of your qualification if they have a need to. It is your issuing college that verifies your certificate, diploma or degree, not us. The employer contact your college.
"The function of education is to teach one to think intensively and to think critically. Intelligence plus character – that is the goal of true education." – Martin Luther King, Jr.
This is what Wikipedia has to say….
Learning is the act of acquiring new, or modifying and reinforcing, existing knowledge, behaviors, skills, values, or preferences and may involve synthesizing different types of information. The ability to learn is possessed by humans, animals, plants and some machines. Progress over time tends to follow a learning curve. It does not happen all at once, but builds upon and is shaped by previous knowledge. To that end, learning may be viewed as a process, rather than a collection of factual and procedural knowledge. Learning produces changes in the organism and the changes produced are relatively permanent.
…from Wikipedia
The process of education can follow many different paths facilitating learning. Educational methods usually involve many and varied processes including storytelling, discussion and teaching. Education very frequently occurs under the guidance of education officers, but learners often also educate themselves. Education can take place different settings and any experience that has a formative effect on the method one acts, feels or thinks must be considered educational.

MIC-CORE: a tool for microsimulation
In: Rossetti, M. D., Hill, R. R., Johansson, B., Dunkin, A., Ingalls, R. G. (Eds.): Proceedings of the 2009 Winter Simulation Conference: December 13 - 16, 2009, Austin, Texas, U.S.A.; inclusion of MASM (Modeling and Analysis of Semiconductor Manufacturing)[CD-ROM] (2009)
Piscataway, NJ: IEEE.
Keywords: microsimulation, projections, software
Microsimulation is an increasingly popular tool in the social sciences. Individual behavior is described by a (commonly stochastic) model and subsequently simulated to study outcomes on the aggregate level. Demographic projections are a prominent area of application. Despite numerous available tools often new software is designed and implemented for specific applications. In this paper we describe how a modeling and simulation framework, JAMES, was used to create a specialized tool for population projections, the Mic-Core. Reusing validated and well-tested modeling and simulation functionality significantly reduced development time while keeping performance levels high. We document how the Mic-Core was built as plug-ins to JAMES and illustrate the performance of the resulting tool. We demonstrate how the concept of a modeling and simulation framework enabled successful software reuse of available functionality and briefly report of future work.

Transpo Announces Service to New VA Clinic
Transpo announced service to the new St. Joseph County VA Health Care Center will start on Wednesday, September 13, 2017.
Transpo worked closely with U.S. Senator Joe Donnelly, U.S. Congresswoman Jackie Walorski and the cities of South Bend and Mishawaka since the announcement of the new VA Clinic location. "We have a strong relationship with the VA and our goal was to ensure transportation would not be a barrier for those who have served our country", said David Cangany, General Manager and CEO. "Our team worked to adjust the existing route without compromising service to other areas, demonstrating our commitment to providing connections to healthcare and employment opportunities", continued Cangany.
Service will be provided via Transpo's existing 15A University Park Mall / Mishawaka via Main Street route. In order to accommodate the additional stop at the VA Clinic, located at 1540 Trinity Place in Mishawaka, the 15A will no longer serve the following areas:
- Douglas Rd between Main St & Grape Rd
- Grape Rd between Douglas Rd & Indian Ridge Dr
- Indian Ridge Dr between Grape Rd & Main St
- Super Target
Service for these areas will continue to be provided by the 15B University Park Mall / Mishawaka via Grape Rd route.
The 15A originates at the Mishawaka Transfer Cetner and travels north on Main St. From Main St, the route will head east on Douglas Rd to St. Joseph Health System and then continue on Douglas Rd, south on Fir Rd and west on Trinity Place to the new VA Clinic. Bus stop #1941 is located on Trinity Place near the main entrance to the clinc.
The 15A will provide hourly service to the clinic from approximately 7:00 a.m. to 7:30 p.m. Monday through Friday.

Misery Loved Company
They say that misery loves company, but in your case it was the company you were keeping that made you miserable. Who gave you the idea that you were small, weak, meek, easy to overlook? Someone in your past gave you quite a working-over, and you still bear the psychic bruises.
That's why you handed your lover the leash and gave up control. You let your lover make all the decisions. You spent all your energy going places your sweetie wanted to go, ignoring your own desires. But those stifled impulses popped up anyway, in the sullen resentment that you showed to your lover. It was so unattractive! But you were stuck in a cycle and couldn't seem to break free.The key to altering your troublesome situation lay in looking inside yourself. What is it you really want from your life? What did you want from your relationship, from your lover? You needed to define your vague longings and give them a voice. Your lover was willing to listen, but couldn't guess what you needed unless you were clear. That clarity would have translated into more respect for you, and better feelings all around. Here's a lesson with broader implications in your life; Clearly say what you want and need, and you're very likely to get it.

Dr Zuber Bagasi is no stranger to challenges.
Having taken part in numerous charity 10K runs and half-marathons over the years, the Iron Man Triathlon was his biggest challenge yet.
Dr Bagasi, from Synergy Dental Clinic on Central Drive in Blackpool, completed a 2.4-mile swim, a 112-mile cycle and a full marathon in a time of 15 hours, 29 minutes and one second – a personal best.
He was inspired to take on the challenge to raise money for hospices across the North West and dental charity Bridge2Aid.
He also wanted to demonstrate how engaging in a fitness-related hobby can help to alleviate some of the psychological burden that dentists may carry, to ensure they are at the peak of their professional capabilities at all times.
Dr Bagasi said: "I think it is often an under-reported aspect of the profession, but a lot of dentists suffer from stress and burnout which has negative psychological impacts on them outside of their surgeries and trickles into their personal lives."
The stress and burnout he refers to stems from a number of sources – all of which are essential to stay on top of, if dentists are to run a successful practice.
Elements such as complaints from disgruntled patients, financial concerns placed by the pressure of NHS' Units of Dental Activity (UDA) targets, dealing with personal issues, changing regulations and ongoing Care Quality Commission (CQC) inspections, to name but a few.
"I've been very fortunate not to suffer from severe stress and burnout – largely due to the fantastic team I have to support me – but I have a lot of friends in the industry who regularly turn to me for advice and tips.
"My approach is always the same for each case – to provide a shoulder to lean on, to listen and then to advise them on how to tackle the problems based on how I have dealt with them in the past."
The 36-year-old, who has grown his dental practice empire from a single practice to eight in just over 10 years, says training for long-distance endurance challenges has helped him prevent the stresses of being a busy dentist from overwhelming him.
"Taking on the challenge of the Ironman was like no other challenge I have trained for before.
"Due to the magnitude of the challenge and its near-impossible demands - it had to become a lifestyle for me.
"I had to balance work, training, nutrition, recovery and of course leisure time, too.
"When I look back retrospectively it has made a hugely positive impact on my personal and professional life," he added.

This early 20th century ring features dark red and blue enamel…bats and Shou symbols with an earlier carved pale celadon jade cicada… which at one time may have been a pendent …is lovely… and more.
The cicada, an insect symbolic of transformation, immortality and resurrection, has been carved in jade for thousands of years of Chinese history. There are over 2000 varieties of cicada, an insect with wide eyes on the sides of its head. They are found throughout the world, benign to animals and plants…they bury themselves in the earth, some for 17 years and then return to the surface and shed their skin.
This life pattern explains why the cicada is associated with rebirth… a jade cicada was sometimes placed in the mouth of the deceased. The cicada in China is similar to the scarab beetle in Ancient Egypt… where stones carved in the form of the beetle were placed on the chest of the deceased before burial.
Yesterday, I was wearing this ring and a jewelry dealer grabbed my hand and said "that's stunning!" … and he was right!

Some times we just need to concat some strings "nouns";
When we deal with a few amount of data, this task is very simple. We can just add the firstString with the secondString;
Sample 1:
String firstString = "Fisrt Name";
String secondString = "Last Name";
String finalString = firstString + secondString;
But, some times it is necessary to concat a large amount of data, using a looping or something else;
Sample 2:
String s1 = "Numbers separated by comma: ";
String s2 = "";
String s3 = "";
for (int i = 0; i <= size; i++) {
s2 = s2 + i + ", ";
s3 = s1 + s2;
When we deal with a large amount of data we need to take into consideration the performance of the algorithm;
On our sample 1 and sample 2 the JVM(java virtual machine) is going to create one new object for each concatenation and this may turn into a real problem when we have to concat a large amount of data.
Ok, this is a problem… But how can we do that without create a new object for each concatenation?
There is an object to deal with this type of problem, it is called "StringBuilder" and we can use it's native method called "append", this method receaves as parameter the new string with you intend to concat.
Sample 3:
String s1 = "Numbers separated by comman: ";
StringBuilder s2 = new StringBuilder();
String s3 = "";
for (int i = 0; i <= size; i++) {
s2.append(i).append(", ");
s3 = s1 + s2;
Our focus is on performance, so, let's see some results:
400 numbers:
Appending strings: 1ms
Adding strings: 1ms
4000 numbers:
Appending strings: 2ms
Adding strings: 45ms
40000 numbers:
Appending strings: 7ms
Adding strings: 4342ms
Analysing these number we may see that:
With 400 numbers both result need the same amount of time to execute;
With 4000 numbers the use of the append method is 22 times faster than adding strings;
With 40000 numbers the use of the append method is 620 times faster than adding strings;
Try it for your self – get the code on the github repository.
Leave a comment;
Improvements, discuss, anything else…

So, ordinarily, iPhone is supposed to appear in your iPhoto list, as pictured. But what if that doesn't happen, and you've tried everything: erasing iPhoto settings, playing with iTunes preferences… everything, in fact, except erasing your iPhone's valuable data? How to sync photos into iPhoto again; that is, how to get your iPhone to introduce itself as a camera once again?
As strange as it may sound, this is caused by you downloading picture attachments or choosing Save image in mobile Safari. So just go and mail yourself every photo from Camera Roll that was not created with iPhone's own Camera, and then delete them.
That's right, just go right ahead and delete all the photos you downloaded from your iPhone's Camera Roll. This'll restore your access. This has worked on my iPhone 2G with OS 3.1.2.
Well, if it doesn't help you, you could also try something else from this thread on MacRumors forums.

Here's what Squooshy is up to this week:
Your new resident is nearly an inch long — about the size of a grape — and weighs just a fraction of an ounce. She's starting to look more and more human. Her essential body parts are accounted for, though they'll go through plenty of fine-tuning in the coming months. Other changes abound: Your baby's heart finishes dividing into four chambers, and the valves start to form — as do her tiny teeth. The embryonic "tail" is completely gone. Your baby's organs, muscles, and nerves are kicking into gear. The external sex organs are there but won't be distinguishable as male or female for another few weeks.

I See Dead People
Alias — Season 5
At the APO office, Marshall reports to Jack that a microchip found in Renee Rienne's body contains encrypted data with an incomplete algorithm. He discovers that "Andre Micheaux" is etched on the microchip. Unbeknownst to them, their conversation is being recorded.Jack and Sydney conclude that Vaughn might have info about the chip since Renee and Vaughn's father had known each other. They agree that Vaughn must be contacted..In Zurich, Peyton tells Sloane that Sydney is heading to Nepal to meet someone regarding the chip. When Sloane advises that Prophet Five send someone to intercept, Peyton introduces Anna – now Sydney's doppleganger. Sloane briefs her but comments that she's hardly Sydney and reminds her that she's dispensable. As Anna leaves, Sloane has a vision of Nadia, who tells him that he's just as dispensable.At APO, Tom decodes a message hidden in a magazine. Rachel, feeling insecure, interrupts him. Tom assures her that she's a good agent.Anna arrives in Nepal and deceives an escort expecting to meet Sydney. He tells her that Vaughn is excited to see her and his hideout is just a few minutes away. She kills him and gives his distinctive scarf to an accomplice.Marshall discovers that the whole APO office is bugged. He meets Jack at a parking lot and shares the news that Sloane have placed the office on passive surveillance. They conclude that Sloane must have installed a backdoor access to APO's security system before his rights had been revoked.Sydney arrives at the airport and is picked up by Anna's accomplice. Jack phones and informs her of the security breach and the possible intercept. When the impostor suggests that they help a stranded stranger, Sydney elbows him and tries to grab the wheel. The stranger fires gunshots at them and the jeep veers off the road and into a ravine.Trapped under the jeep, Sydney watches as Anna takes the chip from her backpack. Anna says she's going to pay Vaughn a visit and sets the jeep on fire. Sydney escapes in time.

Life is about play, love and connection.
I love the Rotterdam Central Station. As I was walking back from the Kunsthal where I had met the famous photographer Peter Lindbergh and had Anton Corbijn sitting right behind me, I saw this segment of the station bathing in the evening light. I had the image pictured in my mind instantly. I made sure to use the f8 aperture in order to have the best performance of the Summilux lens (not that this lens really needed this).This picture has gained quite some praise on my Instagram account, I hope you like it too.
The man pictured on this photograph is Ty Taylor of the band Vintage Trouble . They are supporting ACDC on their tour right now and visited Rotterdam on their own where they performed at the Metropolis Festival. I was totally blown away by their performance but managed to take some pictures though. They are not only excellent musicians but great performers as well, making them an awesome subject for my photography. They all expressed so much intensity that it transferred to the audience. I was jumping and moving around to get rid of all the excess energy I got from their presence and performance. Music is such a beautiful thing!
This very weekend I visited the North Sea Jazz Festival in Rotterdam, along with my girlfriend, her sister and daughter. One of the acts was the famous crooner Tony Bennett with Lady Gaga. The venue was jam-packed as there were a lot of 'little monsters' as Lady Gaga likes to call her fans, but sure enough Tony has his fair share of fans as well. At 88 years (!) old he needs to use the autocue and does not manage to sing perfect pitched anymore, but he still got 'it' for sure. What strikes me most besides the seemingly odd combination with Lady Gaga and her impressive voice, is the joy Tony expresses and the fact that at his very advanced age he still is able to do what he does best: singing and entertaining the audience. Truly an inspiration and proof that age is just a number.
I've used the film simulation of DxO Filmpack for a while now with great results. Especially the Rollei Retro simulation can really add some magic to your pictures. What has bothered me though is that this is a plugin for Lightroom rather than a preset. That means that you have to let make Lightroom make a TIFF file, export it to DxO Filmpack, do your thing and let it import it back into Lightroom. Not only is it cumbersome workflow wise, but you are not able to save the changes you have made in DxO Filmpack. Having nice results with the VSCO app on my iPhone, the Lightroom presets seemed quite interesting for that matter. So, when VSCO introduced a free version I immediately went for a test drive. This is one of the first results, made with the Kodak TRI-X simulation, with a fairly amount of grain added. I like it.
Walking through Rotterdam and making regularly use of its subway system, I noticed this passage. It is has perfect symmetry. I like the play and complexity of the lines. You see a lot of very sharp photographs nowadays, but to my eyes not always in a nice way. The Summilux lens shows an amazing sharpness combined with a beautiful rendering which results in very pleasing pictures (at least in my opinion). The M9 takes some time to adjust to, but I am loving it already :-).
I like traveling by train. That's to say, not during rush hour. I recently visited the Boymans Museum in Rotterdam and traveling by train to the centre of the city is the most convenient way to get to the Boymans Museum. As I was waiting for my train to leave the Central Station, I was looking through the dirty window of the compartment (kind of drifting away). My eyes caught this couple. She was taking the same train and had to say goodbye to her boyfriend. It was a wonderful, heartwarming but foremost a cinema-graphic scene. I took some pictures right away; one in colour and this one. This one is a bit more dramatic and therefore better in black and white. Click on the photo to enlarge.
This guy caused quite a stir some time ago. As you recognise the item he is holding you probably understand why ;-). Even in the Netherlands with it's relative (and I mean this in many ways) liberal environment, many people were offended by this piece of art. The question if everything is granted as long as it is labelled as 'art', has been just one of the many questions that were raised. I'd guess discussion and fierce emotions are a few of the many things that art can create and what makes such a wonderful element in our lives.

Tbilisi is full of nice restaurant and of course among them are some that are most beloved by locals as well as foreign guests. Exactly such a restaurant is Bread House or Puris Sakhli (პურის სახლი) in Georgian.
Bread House is located in the Old Town, next to the Abanotubani (bath district). The restaurant is quite large, with nice terraces and balconies on the second floor. Directly at the entrance you can see the big and deep circular clay oven called "Tone" (tone). Exactly in this clay oven the restaurant bakes its own bread, in accordance with traditional Georgian technology and recipe. This bread is called as shotis puri ot tonis puri. The whole restaurant smells of newly baked bread and whets your appetite.
Fresh baked shoti goes well with Georgian cheese, cucumbers and tomato salad and pkhali (Georgian appetizer made with herbs and walnuts) such as with spinach, beetroot leaves, cabbage etc. and of course eggplant – "Nigvziani Badrijani" – with walnut filling. Gebzhalia is my favorite – soft cheese rolls stuffed with curd cheese and mint, its really very tasty. As a main dish you can try Shkmeruli – fried chicken in creamy garlic sauce becomes even more delicious if cooked in a clay pan "Ketsi.
Visit Bread House and enjoy good Georgian cuisine. Combine all this with good Georgian wine and listen at dinner to the polyphonic Georgian music, which the restaurant offers every evening.

This morning my class was welcomed to the fourth hero in my calendar sketches. If you missed my previous Curve about these sketches I'll catch you up really quick. Each month the teachers choose a student of the month based upon a specific personality trait.
November was Caring and I chose the Flash.
December is Responsibility and the no brainer was Spider-Man.
The Flash came off a little blocky though I do think I did a pretty good job on his hands and mask. Well not a good job, but a better job than I normally do with hands, and the Flash. Spider-man I'm more happy with, I spotted the blacks a little bit better but I'm still placing them a little too arbitrarily. It's something I've worked on off and on, but never on any of my consistent work. I'm trying to spot blacks in the Heroes Journey shorts, but we haven't even released any of those to be seen. The webbing on Spider-Man is a double edged sword, it's a lot of work, but it does make the character instantly identifiable. I love the web crawler's pose.
Just wanted to give an update, and quick reflection on the sketches I've been doing for my class. They love talking about courage and caring every morning, and I think it's really important that we teach these kids what these big concepts mean. The fact that it lets me mention comics to the impressionable youth every day is just a pleasant bi-product. Thanks for reading.
-Jon O

Psalm 123: Liftoff, We Have Liftoff
by Wayne Blank
See also 1 Year Holy Bible Reading Plan
"Unto thee lift I up mine eyes, O thou that dwellest in the heavens"
Audio from the 1969 launch of Apollo 11, the first manned moon landing:
Mission Control: Thirty seconds and counting. Astronauts report it feels good. T 25 seconds. Twenty seconds and counting. T 15 seconds, guidance is internal. 12, 11, 10, 9 ... Ignition sequence start ... 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, 0 ... All engines running ... Liftoff! We have a liftoff ... 32 minutes past the hour, liftoff on Apollo 11 ... Tower clear.
Since the beginning of human flight into space by the Russian Cosmonaut Yuri Gagarin (the first human in space) aboard Vostok 1 on April 12 1961 and then Alan Shepard (the first U.S. astronaut in space) aboard Freedom 7 on May 5, 1961 (Shepard also became the fifth man to walk on the moon from Apollo 14 in 1971), many humans have experienced "Liftoff! We have a liftoff" from Earth into the heavens. Most launches have been successful. A few have ended tragically with loss of life.
The people of ancient times were familiar with the heavens. They didn't have rockets or telescopes, but they didn't have bright artificial lighting that blocked their view either (astronomers today call it "light pollution"). When the LORD (see The Identity Of The LORD God) told Abraham to look up to the heavens, he was able to see more than most people (particularly those who live in cities) can today.
"15:5 And he brought him forth abroad, and said, Look now toward heaven, and tell the stars, if thou be able to number them: and he said unto him, So shall thy seed be." (Genesis 15:5 KJV)
While Abraham was obviously given to see a vast number of unaided-eye stars that represented his many descendants, the lesson was also a prophecy about the time when the fulfillment would begin - the day that the heavens would be filled with the spiritual "children of Abraham" on their "launch day."
"21:27 And then shall they see the Son of man coming in a cloud with power and great glory.
On that day, the day of Christ's return, will occur the first resurrection - when all of the righteous people, from throughout all of the ages, including Abraham, as well as those alive that day, will experience "Liftoff, we have liftoff" - without any need of a launch vehicle (see also Those Who Will Awake Early). Their flawless launches will also have no danger for those then made immortal spirit - everything that could hurt them will be left behind on the ground as they meet the LORD in the air.
"4:13 But I would not have you to be ignorant, brethren, concerning them which are asleep, that ye sorrow not, even as others which have no hope. 4:14 For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so them also which sleep in Jesus will God bring with him.
The formation flight will perform at least one complete orbit of the Earth, by which not only will all nations then remaining physical see it happening, but in order to gather all of the first resurrection from all around the Earth (see also The Messiah's Prophecies About All Nations).
"24:30 And then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven: and then shall all the tribes of the earth mourn, and they shall see the Son of man coming in the clouds of heaven with power and great glory.
Re-entry will also be a complete success. The landing will occur on the Mount of Olives in Jerusalem (see also The Ascent From Bethany).
"19:11 And I saw heaven opened, and behold a white horse; and he that sat upon him was called Faithful and True, and in righteousness he doth judge and make war. 19:12 His eyes were as a flame of fire, and on his head were many crowns; and he had a name written, that no man knew, but he himself. 19:13 And he was clothed with a vesture dipped in blood: and his name is called The Word of God. 19:14 And the armies which were in heaven followed him upon white horses, clothed in fine linen, white and clean. 19:15 And out of his mouth goeth a sharp sword, that with it he should smite the nations: and he shall rule them with a rod of iron: and he treadeth the winepress of the fierceness and wrath of Almighty God. 19:16 And he hath on his vesture and on his thigh a name written, KING OF KINGS, AND LORD OF LORDS." (Revelation 19:11-16 KJV)
King David never had a rocket, but he knew that his launch day is coming (see David's Resurrection Prophecy). It's why he joyously sang, "Unto thee lift I up mine eyes, O thou that dwellest in the heavens."
"123:1 A Song of degrees.
Fact Finder: How have many people mistaken the first resurrection for a non-Biblical fantasy "rapture" (a false doctrine invented by a small cult in the 1800s - which has since become a millions of dollars business for those who peddle it with their books and videos)?
This Day In History, March 25
421: The traditional date of the founding of the city of Venice, Italy.
752: Pope Stephen II died only 2 days after his election (see also The Struggle For The Papacy).
1199: England's King Richard I ("Richard the Lionheart") was wounded by a crossbow bolt while fighting France. He died from complications of the wound (infection) on April 6. Richard had been active in the "Crusades" (see Constantine's Crusades In History And Prophecy).
1306: Robert de Bruce was crowned Robert I the Bruce of Scotland at Scone. He led the forces that freed Scotland from English rule in 1328.

1955: East Germany was granted full sovereignty by its occupying power, the USSR.

An Indonesian artist has hinted he has been sacked after he inserted political and religious references tied to an election into a new Marvel comic.
Ardian Syaf, an Indonesian artist who illustrated X-Men Gold, included what critics say were anti-Christian and anti-Semitic messages related to the ongoing blasphemy case that has plagued Jakarta's Christian Governor Basuki Tjahaja Purnama, commonly referred to as Ahok.
"My career is over now," Syaf said in a Facebook post.
"It's the consequence (of) what I did, and I take it."
The controversial images include an X-Men character Colossus wearing a shirt that reads "QS: 5:51", referring to a verse in the Koran some Indonesian Muslims interpret as forbidding Muslims being led by Christians and Jews.
Another shows a building labelled "212", in reference to a large protest by conservative Muslims against Purnama in December.
Marvel said the images would be removed in subsequent print runs.
"The mentioned artwork in X-Men Gold #1 was inserted without knowledge behind its reported meanings," Marvel said, according to comic.com.
"These implied references do not reflect the views of the writer, editors or anyone else at Marvel and are in direct opposition of the inclusiveness of Marvel Comics and what the X-Men have stood for since their creation."
Syaf apologised in his Facebook post for "all the noise".
Ahok's blasphemy trial has been postponed until one day after the capital heads to the polls next week, as prosecutors prepare what punishment they want the court to hand down.

Mom working with kid strapped to back?
Do you ever bring your kid to work with you? Well, one mom said she had no choice. So, she strapped her son to her back and went to work at a Tennessee diner.
Radio.com reports that Kori Dotson unexpectedly filled in for a waitress shift, but her babysitter wasn't home. So she strapped her two-year-old, Rhody, to her back and got to it.
A customer at the Tennessee diner snapped pics of the determined mom.
I asked listeners during the Early Edition of WWL First News how they would react if their waitress had a kid rising piggy back.
The response was overwhelmingly positive.
"Imagine how the mother feels, most of us don't have to face that type of adversity," one person texted to 870870. "There are two options when faced with adversity, succeed or fail. God bless her and her kid."
Another wrote, "Mom should be Commended. Kick dad in his buttocks."
"I say that waitress is an American hero. My mom was like that, rest her soul!" someone else sounded off.
Here are some more texts we received:
- She's handling her business, a cute little baby would increase the amount of tip I would give her show she's got what it takes
- Waitress has great work ethic
- Commend her! We need more people with a work ethic like hers in this country.
- I would've made sure I gave her one hell of a good tip
- Give her a hand she what she had to
- I would give her extra money for a tip
- Called dedication. I'm hiring her if I'm looking for a new employee.
- The waitress deserves to be commended and given a huge tip.
- Props to the working girl with baby on your back
- If the service was good, I would give a bigger tip
- I'm a woman and I am self-employed. Work is a priority and I respect the waitress that prioritized work by bringing her child. Respect, but not hero worship. This work ethic should be the norm.
- Last week at Perino's on Vets when we were buying our Christmas tree.... Lady was working holding her baby in a "chest carrier". She helped us, baby sleeping and mom seemed happy. All good! It was sweater weather so not too hot or too cold outside.
- The waitress should be commended and also her boss for letting her bring her child to work
- It would seem to be weird at first but the young woman deserves to be commended as well as her employer who's allowing her to do her job in this situation
- Her tip would depend on how strong that two year old can make my margarita
- I bet she did very well on tips also big up sister
- I think she should get a raise to help pay for more reliable day care. Her work ethic and dedication to her employer should be rewarded.
- Kudos to her and her boss for allowing her to do it!

If the ceramic has come off from the metal then cutting that part of tooth from rest of bridge and just giving that crown separately is not the right solution. First of all this is not very feasible thing as the metal of the adjacent teeth will also be affected and they may also develop holes and secondly if he tries to fit it in between then contacts with the adjacent teeth will not be proper and problem of food impaction will be there. So the best solution for this is to remove the whole bridge and get it repaired, if it comes out easily but if your dentist has to section the bridge to remove then whole bridge has to be made new. For more info on bridge you can read this article... http://www.identalhub.com/article_how-do-bridges-work-225.aspx

Enjoying the Frost-Free Fall
Due to our lovely frost-free Fall, late summer vegetables like eggplant and corn are still available at local farmstands. I picked up some eggplant, and a big, beautiful bunch of cilantro at Falkowski's (Scuttlehole Road, Bridgehampton) yesterday, to make a broiled eggplant salad (adapted from Vegetables Every Day), for dinner last night. Here is the recipe:
Broiled Eggplant Salad
Serves 4
2 pounds eggplant, stems trimmed, cut into 1/2-inch-thick rounds
3 tablespoons vegetable oil
2 tablespoons lime juice
1 tablespoon fish sauce
1 jalapeno pepper, seeded and finely chopped
1 teaspoon sugar
4 medium scallions, white and light green parts, finely chopped
2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh cilantro leaves
1/4 cup dry-roasted peanuts, chopped
1. Position an oven rack closest to the broiling element and heat the broiler to high. Place the eggplant slices on a baking sheet, brush them on both sides with the oil, and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Broil, turning once, until very well browned on both sides, about 10 minutes total. Let cool on the baking sheet, chop into bite-size pieces, and transfer to a serving bowl.
2. Combine the lime juice, fish sauce, chile, and sugar in a small bowl. Pour the dressing over the eggplant, add the scallions, cilantro, and peanuts, and toss to coat. Serve immediately.

If you've ever played a Chinese browser MMORPG, you've likely played them all. Whether it's the heavily advertised, and oddly popular, League of Angels or the more obscure Shadowbound, the simple fact is that all of these browser based MMOs developed in China are basically the same exact game. They're built off the same engine and feature almost the same exact game mechanics. The easiest way to spot one of these games is to simply look up at the top left corner of the screen. If you see a "battle ranking" or "battle rating", you're most certainly playing a Chinese developed web game.
I didn't think this was the case at first, but after playing Chrono Wars and Nova Genesis the other day, it became painfully obvious that these games are all clones of eachother. The stupidest part of these games is that they all have built in bots that essentially play the entire game for you. In most normal MMOs, "bots" are considered hacking tools and will result in account terminations, but for some reason in these web games, not only are bots allowed, the game has one built in! Everyone gets to bot! This very much defeats the purpose of a game. Shouldn't I want to play a game because…. it's fun? I guess not. The developers probably figured that the core gameplay itself is absolute deuce, so the only way to get anyone to play the game is to give them tools that they couldn't have in normal games.
I admit, I played one of these games for about a day out of curiosity. I'm a bit ashamed actually, because I left the game running for a whole day before closing it out. My curiosity got the better of me. Calling these games "MMORPGs" is definitely misleading. If anything, they're a lot like those games that play themselves – like Cookie Clicker, Adventure Capitalist, or Clicker Heroes. Especially since most of the questing is done automatically too. The only time players need to interact with the game is to click the next quest icon, but some games even automate that too (looking at you Chaos Online).
So why do these games even exist? Why do people even play them? I have no idea. Some of these games are actually stupidly popular. League of Angels for example has over 700 servers in the U.S. and Europe alone. 700 SERVERS! It's easily one of the most successful free to play online games and it's absolute trash. What's this world coming to? The only GOOD browser based MMORPGs in my opinion are Realm of the Mad God and Drakensang Online. Two actual games that require input from players. Anyway, rant over. Have you played any of these Chinese web games? What do you think?

The "Call To Action" of a creative if one of its most critical elements, particularly in the case of performance-based campaigns.
Without a clearly written and designed call to action, your audience can take in your message, but isn't given than extra motivation to take "action".
Including at least a simple CTA, on a clearly defined background so it stands out from the rest of the creative, has been part of the basic tenets of digital creatives for over a decade now.
But now, thanks to mobile devices and social media, a CTA can be a lot more than just a simple link, redirecting users to a landing page. Maps, phone calls, SMS - there's a lot you can do with the humble CTA these days.
This is one of the reasons NEXD Campaign Manager offers these special CTA functions.
Here's a few other reasons why adding them makes sense, for you:
- Get more leads, faster: by removing the need for a landing page, you're able to reduce the steps required to get your leads to pick up the phone or visit your store.
- Your audience wants them: similar functionality is already offered by the likes of Facebook, so your customers are already familiar with how it works.
- Lower cost leads: by removing the need for a landing page you're able to reduce costs for building landing pages - just have them call you directly!
- Speed up your pipeline: coupling an SMS CTA with your own SMS-based chat bot is a great way to get customers going from lead to sale in a fraction of the time it takes.
What CTA types does NEXD Campaign Manager offer?
In addition to the "standard" URL redirect CTA functionality that's present in all our creative templates, NEXD Campaign Manager also offers an extra layer of interactivity, via the Action Bar.
The Action Bar appears at the bottom of your NEXD Campaign Manager creative. It is 30px tall and is overlayed on top of the creative.
The Action Bar supports the following primary Call To Action types:
- Call - Calls a specified number
- SMS - Opens the user's default SMS messaging app and sends a message of your choice to the number you specify
- Map - Opens Google Maps and drops a pin at a specified location
- Link - A simple URL, redirecting the user to your landing page
On top of these primary CTA functions, the Action Bar includes additional CTA options. These are included regardless of the primary CTA function you choose when you create your ad.
The secondary Call To Action types are:
- Share - Opens a list of social networking platforms to share the ad to
- Save - Saves the current view of the ad as an image to their device
Want to learn more about how to add these special CTA functions to your NEXD Campaign Manager creatives? We've put together this article to help get you up and running:

In this day and age, it's often assumed that the more sexual partners you have, the more fun you have. We can partially thank Sex and the City for giving us that idea—Carrie, Charlotte, Miranda, and Samantha racked up a combined total of 95 suitors over six seasons, all the while living our dream lives.
Those girls may have kissed some major toads, but they were happy, right? According to findings from a study conducted by the National Bureau of Economic Research, the number of sexual partners that will scientifically make you the happiest may be fewer than you'd think (and far less than television suggests).
The aforementioned study sampled 16,000 American adults and found that the happiest individuals only had one sexual partner a year. These findings applied to both homosexual and heterosexual couples. "According to our data, Americans have less dramatic sex lives than might have been imagined from television and other media," the authors write in the study.
What the authors point out is that people have a tendency to be happier when they are committed to one person. Whether the happiness comes from feel-good hormones, emotional intimacy, or something else entirely, monogamy may be the key. Although this study's findings may apply to some, we should point out that science cannot quantify all relationships. While monogamy tended to make the majority of the test subjects happy, it may not do the same for you.
Be sure to read about Gwyneth Paltrow's mindful formula for better sex, and tell us what you think about the findings of this study in the comments.

As if we needed any more reasons to covet the gorgeous Diane Kruger's simple, elegant and undeniably seductive style, she steps out in this AMAZING Red Valentino trench coat and blows our minds.
Not only is she wearing one of the most sought after designers as well as the greatest invention in transitionary outerwear - the trench, natch - the collar of her trench is just brilliant. Embroidered swans knock heads as she does up her trench to the top.
Pairing the look with a simple sued black shoulder bag (it looks distinctly like Chanel to us…), she injected serious Parisian cool to the classic trench with black socks and adorable black lace-up boots. Keeping her make-up neutral and sporting a tousled, mussed-up do, she let the trench do the talking. Goodness, she is too cool.

During our second visit to Santa Cruz Island in the Galapagos, we had the chance to see Giant Land Tortoises in the wild on Rancho Primicias.
These guys can weigh over 800 pounds each, and live over 100 years.
It was estimated that there were once 250,000 on the islands, but due to hunting by man, those numbers have declined drastically.
Breeding programs are in full effect to help save these amazing creatures, and they now number about 19,000 (Wikipedia).

Today's Marselli Precision Automotive auto maintenance article focuses on your serpentine belt. Your serpentine belt is a long belt that's driven by your engine. It winds around several accessories that power important automotive systems. Let's go over them.
First, the serpentine belt drives your minivan air conditioning system. It spins the compressor that makes the cool air that takes the edge off the summer heat in Bloomfield.
Next, the belt powers the alternator. The alternator creates electricity that's used by your minivan's electrical systems and also charges your car battery. All Bloomfield car owners know that without the alternator, the battery will go dead in a few miles.
The serpentine belt may also run the pumps for both the power steering and power brakes. And, on many minivans, the serpentine belt powers the water pump. The water pump circulates coolant through the engine to keep it within normal operating temperatures for Bloomfield car owners. (On some minivans, the water pump is powered by the timing belt instead of the serpentine belt.)
So you can see the serpentine belt does a lot of work. And it if breaks, it affects a lot of systems. That's why car makers and your service advisor at Marselli Precision Automotive have recommended that it be changed every so often so that it doesn't fail.
Your Marselli Precision Automotive service advisor can perform a visual inspection of the belt to see if it has any cracks that signal the belt could fail soon and will measure the amount of belt material to make sure there is enough.
Your serpentine belt works in tandem with a spring loaded pulley attached to the engine called the tensioner pulley. Its job is to make sure there's a constant tension on the serpentine belt so that it doesn't slip. The spring can become worn and no longer provide the necessary pressure to keep the belt tight. At Marselli Precision Automotive, we recommend that the tensioner be replaced at the same time as the serpentine belt.
All in all, the serpentine belt's a critical part for the function of your minivan. And it's not that expensive to replace at Marselli Precision Automotive – so bring in your vehicle if it hasn't been checked in a while.

CHARLOTTE, N.C. (www.BigSouthSports.com) – Defending Big South Conference Tournament Champion Charleston Southern was selected fourth in the Big South Preseason Coaches' Poll as announced today by the conference office.
The Buccaneers received 51 points and a first place vote in the poll after sweeping through the 2014 Big South Tournament on their way to their first NCAA Tournament berth in program history.
2015 Big South Softball Preseason Poll
"The release off the preseason poll means we are less than 10 days until the season opener," said CSU head coach Shane Winkler. "I couldn't be more excited about the 2015 season. We finished last year on a high by winning a championship and I believe that has raised our confidence and expectation levels as a team and we're expecting big things from this group this season."
For the third consecutive year, Coastal Carolina University's softball team has been voted the Big South Conference's preseason favorite. Coastal received five of the nine first-place votes and 77 total points as the favorite to win the Big South crown in 2015. The Chants were the regular-season champion for the second consecutive season in 2014 and finished runner-up in the Big South Tournament.
Longwood was second in the preseason poll with 71 points and two first-place votes -- its highest position in the preseason ranking since joining the Big South three years ago. Campbell was picked third with 57 points (one first-place vote), while Winthrop was chosen fifth with 48 points, with Radford landing in the sixth spot with 36 points. Presbyterian College garnered seventh-place (28 points), followed by Liberty (eighth, 23 points) and Gardner-Webb (ninth, 14 points).
"This might be the tightest the conference has ever been from top to bottom," Winkler commented. "It will be fun being a part of a conference season where not only every game matters, but more importantly where every pitch matters."
Led by returning Big South Tournament MVP in sophomore right-hander Cheyenne Gandara, the Bucs roster features six sophomores who lined up in over 30 games last season. Returning seniors Jennifer Giles and Marci Christian also return to provide experience and power for the Bucs in the circle and at the plate.
The Buccaneers host four home tournaments this spring and make trips to South Carolina and Cal State Fullerton among the schedule highlights for the season. Home conference clashes against Gardner-Webb, Winthrop, Liberty and Coastal Carolina are also on the slate for the Bucs this year at the CSU Softball Field.
CSU opens up the season next weekend as the Bucs host their first CSU Tournament running from February 6-8 against Southern Illinois, Ohio State and UMBC. The Bucs open up the regular season on February 6th with first pitch against UMBC scheduled for 2 p.m.
The 2015 Big South softball season begins Thursday, February 5, while the first Conference meeting is set for the weekend of March 13-15. The 2015 Big South Softball Championship tournament is slated for May 7-11 and will be hosted by Campbell University in Buies Creek, N.C.
