Simon Hughes says Blair conversion isn't news
12:01 AM — The openly bisexual, Christian, Liberal Democrat MP, Simon Hughes has criticised the media for overstating the importance of the conversion of former prime minister Tony Blair to Catholicism.Mr Hughes said: "In the 21st century the news that a former prime minister has moved from one branch of the church to another should not rate major headlines...If Tony Blair had changed from Christianity to Buddhism, Islam or Judaism it would be much more significant."

Sacred Treasure - The Cairo Genizah: The Amazing Discoveries of Forgotten Jewish History in an Egyptian Synagogue Attic
In 1896, Rabbi Solomon Schechter of Cambridge University stepped into the attic of the Ben Ezra Synagogue in Cairo and there found the largest treasure trove of mediaeval and early manuscripts ever discovered. He had entered the synagogue's genizah - its repository for damaged and destroyed Jewish texts - which held nearly 300,000 individual documents, many of which were o ...more

I found this on the "new" display at the library. It looks like a dry read but it is anything but. The author is a fabulous writer and at times it reads like an adventure novel. You get a solid grounding in Jewish history along with an introduction to Jewish religious documents and a healthy dose of library science. Recommended to anyone with an interest in old books, Jewish history or liturgy.

Interesting that both this book and Sacred Trash: The Lost and Found World of the Cairo Geniza were published almost simultaneously in 2011, so I decided to read them both back to back. Both detail [and I do mean detail] the history of the discovery of the Cairo Geniza, a repository for old Jewish manuscripts. But both books are more a history of the scholars who worked on the geniza manuscripts than on the geniza itself and the amazing things they found there.

This is a very good book, worth even four stars, if it weren't for the author's extremely weak conclusion. More on that later.
The book tells the story of how the Cairo Genizah was discovered, and reviews the 100+ year history of its research. The author does a good job of introducing the various scholars and researchers as well as telling us about the various obstacles the needed to be overcome. He also has a slight humorous touch, which is always good in a book.

I've known about the Cairo Genizah for so many years that I can't even remember where I first heard about it. But my knowledge was slim. I knew that it was discovered by Solomon Schechter. I knew it was one of the most important discoveries of old Jewish documents in the modern age but I had never heard an in-depth account of the discovery itself or of the details of its contents and its significance. In fact, I am amazed that it has taken a hundred years for such a book to be written. Thank you ...more

I thought this was pretty interesting, but it's not quite what I expected. Glickman talks mainly about how the Cairo Genizah was rediscovered and who ended up with which pieces, which is certainly a good story; I think I was really just hoping for more on what impact the actual contents have had on the Jewish community and why they're important, which he does touch on, but not in much depth. I'm also torn on what to think of him as a narrator--when he's in good form, he reads very well, and for ...more

Extremely readable and fascinating recount of the ancient documents stored away in a temple attic and how they relate to sacred writings and practices of monotheists in present times. The author provides historical context and connects the dots to enlighten the reader on how those writings evolved. Glickman's love for the intricacies and realities of religious development and sense of personal connection as he examines these ancient scrolls, notes and manuscripts is obvious.

Fascinating retelling of the history of the Cairo Genizah, the 19th century Hebrew manuscript market, the adventurous people who traveled far to buy and find rare manuscripts as well as the scholars who invested so many hours pouring over the treasures of the past. Mark Glickman gives a compelling historical overview bringing scholars like Solomon Schechter to life and paying due homage to the continued efforts of scholars to preserve and interpret the treasures of Jewish daily life and rabbinic ...more

The title should really be "The Story of the Men Who Published Work on the Cairo Genizah," because there is very little about the actual Cairo Genizah "treasures" in this book - and the contents are the most interesting part of the story. Hopefully someone will publish that work at a non-scholarly level...we can dream.

An interesting history of an important find of medieval Jewish documents. The book focuses more on the scholars who found and interpreted the documents, with tantalizing descriptions of the subject matter.

Written by the Rabi son of a friend of mine who said there is a bit of Indiana Jones to it. He was right and you will enjoy reading it as much as what you learn.

The Strip
Things to do in The Strip
A relaxing luxury pool at the Venetian turns into a hip nightclub as the sun goes down on the Vegas Strip. Columns light with fire as the DJ's beat pulses around the glowing pool area.
This giant, 160-shop mall resembles an ancient Roman city, with columns and arches, piazzas and fountains, and faux-outdoor cafés beneath cloud-painted ceiling skies (the lighting even changes with the time of day to mirror the real world).
Chocolate hazelnut bombes, crème brulee gelato, chocolate truffles, tropical fruit crepes: pastry chef Jean Philippe Maury's creative menu has patrons lining up at all hours of the day.
After shopping at Kenneth Cole and Bebe or floating down the Venetian's Grand Canal in a gondola, unwind with a drink at the Very Venice Bar.
A resource for interiors magazines and set designers (products have shown up on shows like Sex and the City and Queer Eye for the Straight Guy), Unica Home is where you'll find curvy Ron Arad chairs for Moroso of Italy, Alessi olive oil tasters, and classi
Despite being hidden beneath the escalators at the Venetian Las Vegas, this small bakery stand is well known for its crispy-on-the-outside and chewy-on-the-inside macarons.
Fontana Bar has live music, a huge range of drinks, and a patio overlooking the Bellagio's famous eight-acre lake where their renowned fountain show entertains the visitors of Vegas.
Every month, up to 800 revelers gather at an ever-shifting location—a club, a restaurant, a resort pool—to taste wines from as many as 50 visiting wineries and hear big-name live performers that have included a diverse lineup, from Sugar Ray and Everclear to Dashboard Confessional and Michael Sol
While serenity and the Strip tend to be mutually exclusive, the two come together at the Wynn Las Vegas golf course, where the buzz of the boulevard is blocked by tall fences and lush forests.

Bllomerang lilac
beegood_gwSeptember 20, 2009
I ordered one this summer and received a very healthy little plant in a 4" pot. Checked it this week and it's got buds. It's only about12" tall. Just hope we don't get a heavy frost before it blooms.Never seen a lilac bloom that small before. Hope that's a sign of good things to come.

Amazon makes even temporary warehouse workers sign 18-month non-competes
From The Verge:
Amazon is the country's largest and most sophisticated online retailer, but it still runs largely on manual labor. Scattered around the country are massive warehouses staffed by workers who spend their days picking objects off shelves and putting them in boxes. During the holiday season, the company calls on a huge reserve army of temporary laborers.
The work is repetitive and physically demanding and can pay several dollars above minimum wage, yet Amazon is requiring these workers — even seasonal ones — to sign strict and far-reaching noncompete agreements. The Amazon contract, obtained by The Verge, requires employees to promise that they will not work at any company where they "directly or indirectly" support any good or service that competes with those they helped support at Amazon, for a year and a half after their brief stints at Amazon end. Of course, the company's warehouses are the beating heart of Amazon's online shopping empire, the extraordinary breadth of which has earned it the title of "the Everything Store," so Amazon appears to be requiring temp workers to foreswear a sizable portion of the global economy in exchange for a several-months-long hourly warehouse gig.
. . . .
"Employee recognizes that the restrictions in this section 4 may significantly limit Employee's future flexibility in many ways," the agreement asserts, referencing the section containing the noncompete agreement and three other clauses. "Employee further recognizes that the geographic areas for many of Amazon's products and services — and, by extension, the geographic areas applicable to certain restrictions in this Section 4 — are extremely broad and in many cases worldwide."
The contract — which was obtained through applying and being accepted to a seasonal Amazon warehouse position — even includes a provision that requires employees who sign it to "disclose and provide a true and correct copy of this Agreement to any prospective new employer […] BEFORE accepting employment[…]"
. . . .
It's unclear whether Amazon has attempted to enforce its noncompete contracts with hourly warehouse workers, and Amazon did not respond when asked about this by The Verge. But the company does have a history of aggressively pursuing such cases against white collar workers. Last year, after a former Amazon marketing manager took a job at Google, Amazon leveled a suit against him that was said to test the limits of noncompete law. The willingness of courts to validate such agreements can vary dramatically across states. But regardless of whether courts are willing to enforce them, noncompetes can still affect workers' behavior.
. . . .
Courts are often reluctant to enforce noncompete agreements that cover the entire United States, let alone the whole world, according to Garden, who notes that the standard of "reasonableness" is the main legal test of the agreements. Yet different states have far different ideas of what counts as reasonable. (In an apparent nod to this, the Amazon contract stipulates that the signer consents that "each and every covenant and restraint in this Agreement is reasonable.") California law bans the enforcement of noncompetes. Oregon, North Dakota, and Colorado have also enacted strict limits on noncompetes. "Then there are states like Texas and Florida and a bunch of others that are on the other end of the spectrum," says Lobel, "that think of it as a simple contract issue, and if you sign the contract and you breach it then, well, you've breached the contract, and they'll enforce it, and they'll give injunctions quite easily."
Link to the rest at The Verge and thanks to Jan for the tip.
PG says the story sounds a little weird and you can count him as skeptical.
In the first place, while the laws vary from state to state, most courts considering noncompete agreements tend to apply a reasonableness test when asked to enforce them.
It's difficult for PG to envision very many judges enforcing an 18 month noncompete agreement against a temporary warehouse worker. It's also difficult to believe that courts would enforce a noncompete agreement prohibiting a former low-level hourly employee from working for a competitor within a large geographical area for a low level worker. As a matter of public policy, most state governments aren't trying to prevent their residents from being gainfully employed.
In one case PG remembers, Amazon sued in Washington to enforce a non-compete against one of its vice-presidents in the Amazon cloud business who went to work for Google's cloud business. If PG's recollection is correct, the court hearing the case reduced the time for the non-compete from 18 months to 3 months. If the vice-president had continued to work during the litigation, the three months would have almost certainly expired before the court handed down its decision.
As mentioned, non-compete agreements are illegal in California except in very narrow circumstances. If Google had moved the VP to California and he sued Amazon in California, it is almost certain a California court would have voided the non-compete agreement and barred Amazon from enforcing it.
Additionally, there's the practical question involved in Amazon ever discovering that one of its former warehouse employees has started working for a competitor. If you're an Amazon vice-president that starts working for a competitor, your profile is high enough so Amazon is likely to hear about the new job. If you move from an Amazon warehouse to a Wal-Mart warehouse, the chances of being discovered are minuscule.
PG says that blanket noncompete agreements for all employees are a really dumb idea in part because gaining a reputation for suing its former employees hurts a company when it is recruiting high-quality talent. Amazon usually doesn't do dumb things, but maybe their employment lawyers are an exception.

Since January, north Chennai has witnessed an increasing number of clashes and killings
Gang wars between emerging groups and established gangsters seem to have sparked off in parts of north Chennai. On Thursday, six persons were arrested in connection with the murder of S. Venketash, a notorious gangster in Old Washermenpet last week.
Police said the arrested men were: 'Appalam' Prakash (36), a resident of Attipattu in Manali and the main accused, Baskar (36), a classmate of Prakash and long-time friend, as well as Anandan (28), Desappan Prakash (25), Arun Kumar (24) and Karthik (23).
Another accused, Charan (24), who is believed to be a hired killer from Vysarpadi, is absconding. The others were remanded and lodged at Puzhal prison.
A case of murder under section 302 of the Indian Penal Code has been registered.
On August 10, 40-year-old Venketash, who had at least three murder charges against him, was hacked to death by a seven-member gang in front of his home in Big Market, Old Washermenpet. He died on the spot.
"Venkatesh was murdered as the main accused, Prakash wanted to take revenge against him for sheltering and supporting a rival of Prakash's," said a senior police officer.
According to the police, Venketash had been an active gangster up until two years ago, but had then abandoned his life of crime and was making a living by selling packaged water. However, since he had been associated with several big gangs, members of various gangs in the locality spent time in his office and kept in touch with him.
Venketash had had cordial relations with one of the area's notorious gangsters, 'Cutlet' Ravi, an enemy of Prakash's.
"As Venketash wanted his water business to run, he did not side with any particular gang. But Prakash wanted him to break off ties with Ravi. To avoid doing so, Venketash paid a large sum of money to Prakash.
But Prakash was not satisfied. He suspected that Venketash was providing Ravi with details as to the whereabouts of Prakash's gang members," the officer said.
From January this year, police said, there have been frequent clashes between emerging groups and the old, 'dormant' gangsters, as the new groups have been trying to take over localities that have been held by old gangsters for decades.
The more violence-prone localities including Vysarpadi, Pulianthope, Kasimedu and Tondiarpet, have been witness to several of these clashes.
'Cutlet' Ravi, a gangster who has more than 35 cases registered against him, has been controlling portions of the neighbourhood for decades. Prakash on the other hand, is an emerging gangster with four cases against him, of which three are for murder. The two were rivals because they both sought to control the same area.
Police said that with these clashes, it is older and 'reformed' gangsters who are caught in the middle, for supporting one or the other of the groups.

To talk of survival does not mean that survival is an end in itself. The survival sought is not for an institution and certainly not for institutional forms or entities. Church leadership is a response to God's love and action in the world revealed most clearly in Jesus Christ. Christian leadership is a channel of God's grace as it seeks the fulfillment of God's vision, and such leadership emerges out of the history, beliefs, and traditions of faith communities.
Offertory Prayer
Each month's Offertory Prayers includes an "Invitation to the Offering" (see below) along with a digital image for those who might want to use it. We hope you will find this a helpful way to remind the people in your pews that their offering travels to many places to make a powerful difference in the lives of people they may never meet. You can find great stories of the difference our giving makes at http://umcgiving.org.
Invitation to the Offering
The offering you made last week empowered ministry within our congregation and in response to the needs of our community. It also helped support the work of ministries beyond the local church, such as our Archives and History Center on the campus of Drew University in Madison, NJ. Here, a small group of dedicated archivists preserve the history and artifacts that keep us connected to our past – what they call "the ministry of memories." By preserving historical photographs, sound recordings, published documents in digital formats, as well as treasures such as the Bible used by Francis Asbury or the journals and handwritten notes of John Wesley, scholars of today can be reconnected with our beginnings when we were more of a movement than an institution. Many in the church hope that this Holy Spirit movement can be recovered for a new generation, and those hopes are made possible through the work of our Commission on Archives and History. This ministry happens, thanks to the way the people of The United Methodist Church live and give connectionally. I invite you to give generously as we worship God through sharing our gifts, tithes, and offerings.

April 5, 2015 – Resurrection of the Lord
Glorious God, we rejoice in Jesus' victory over death! You raised him up to live forever. He left behind his linen wrappings -- the shroud, his grave clothes. Robed in white, Christ leads us from darkness to light. Help us to follow him, leaving behind the things of our past that obscure our horizons. We dedicate these offerings as tokens of the breaking dawn of Christ. May our gratitude shine forth by our joyfully giving of our earthly goods. Amen. (John 20:1-18)

a well no one is going to see this, so why not.
I'm an active gamer, in both senses of the phrase: active as i swim, jog and live an active lifestyle and a gamer as i play games on a regular basis.
i prefer puzzle-adventure (like the early Lukas arts games) JRPG, RPG and RTS.
my favorites in these catagories are The longest Journey, FF6, Diablo2 and starcraft.
I like dancing and sunsets on the beach.
I am marginally interested in Shooters, but for me it's important that they have some sort of story intertwined with the action (Killzone is a perfect example of a game that does not have this.)
If I could be an animal i would be a platypus or a Tardigrade ( dude if you don't know, don't be sad)
favorite proverbs(I only know two so):
"war does not determine who is right, it determines who is left"
"All truth passes through three stages. First, it is ridiculed. Second, it is violently opposed. Third, it is accepted as being self-evident."
and favorite Latin translation:
Cum Laude Magnum - With great success ( it's prolly the best translation there isthough, for cum loaded magnum is a great sucsess)
favorite ANIME: Full Metal Alchemist,canaan depending on how I'm feeling.
other Anime: Naruto, One Piece, kenchi,100% ichigo, black lagoon, bartender, AMV hell /0 and just about any good anime (not to say that the ones I have mentioned here are all good, but they'll do the trick. at least for me)

LOOKING for: strawberry rhubarb cobbler
I did a search of this forum for a strawberry-rhubarb cobbler/crisp/buckle recipe but came up blank. Anyone got a good one? For the topping, I prefer something that does not include oats. Thanks for any and all suggestions!
My favourite apple crisp recipe is one that doesn't contain oats. This is a recipe that I have been making since I was a teenager. It is from an old flour company cookbook. You can easily adjust this recipe to use Rhubarb but you should also mix the fruit with 1/2 to 1 cup of white sugar, 1/4 cup of flour and season with a bit of cinnimon (optional), before adding the topping.
Home Cookin 4.9 Chapter: Recipes From Thibeault's Table
Apple Crisp
Preheat oven to 375°F
Grease a 1 1/2 quart square or round baking dish
Cream together
1/3 cup butter
1 1/4 cups lightly packed brown sugar
Stir in until crumbly a mixture of:
2/3 cups Flour
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
Arrange in prepared casserole
6 peeled and sliced apples
Sprinkle with crumbs. Bake in preheated oven for 40 minutes or until apples
are tender and topping is golden brown.
NOTE: I quite often double the topping and use a couple of extra apples.
I had posted this on the Recipe Exchange. It should fit the bill:
RHUBARB STRAWBERRY COBBLER (serves 4)
3 cups rhubarb cut into 1" pieces
2 cups strawberries cut into halves
1 egg, beaten
1 TBL lemon juice
1 1/4 cups sugar
3 TBL flour
1 cup flour
2 TBL sugar
1 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 cup milk
3 TBL oil
For the base: Combine the rhubarb & strawberries & pour into a shallow 9x9" baking dish. In a small bowl, beat the egg & lemon juice, stir in the sugar & blend in the flour. Pour over the rhubarb-strawberry mixture.
For the crust: In a small bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder & salt. In another bowl, combine the milk & oil & add to the dry ingredients, mixing well. Roll out to a 9x9" square & place over the rhubarb-strawberry mixture. Bake in a preheated 425° oven for 15-20 minutes.~~ From S. Newbury Union Church Cookbook

Tami at What Tami Said recently had a great post about, among other things, why she doesn't like Mad Men's Betty Draper, noting that buried in Betty's blonde, blue-haired Grace Kellyesque perfection lies the "antithesis of black
Betty is enslaved, while also being the slave master. This is what I hate about her. She wants freedom and agency when it is convenient. She wants to come down off the pedestal, but she seems unwilling, at least at this point in the narrative, to give up the privilege that comes with being idealized.
I, too, have been bristling at Betty's bad behaviour for some time. I don't think I'm alone in that; there has been something altogether vicious about the way the show has been writing her character of late, something biting and mean about every word that comes out of her mouth. Until about the middle of season two, I could have chalked this up to what I personally felt were the subpar talents of January Jones, but she has grown into Betty's shoes. And in that context I'm starting to blame both the viewers and the writers for all the vitriol hurled Betty's way.
After I posted about threesomes over the weekend, a bunch of comments came flooding in. The responses—both on Bitch and on Facebook--were smart, expressive and even witty. Kudos to those of you who shared advice and stories about threesomes gone right—or wrong! Readers also posted comments that touched on some very relevant issues about female sexuality that I didn't mention in the original post.
Due in no small part to a summer-long marketing campaign complete with the newly-de-rigeur Twittered event, everybody's been talking about the new show called Glee. Produced by Ryan Murphy of Nip/Tuck fame, it lets everybody live out that fantasy high school experience of gaining fame and popularity while joining - I know you're in suspense - the Glee Club. Glee is the hot new thing so far this season, and has given work to some pretty darn good performers, including Lea Michele (late of Broadway's Spring Awakening), Jayma Mays (completely adorable if hurtling towards Poor Man's Red-Headed Zooey Deschanel territory) and Jane Lynch (who should be in everything ever).
The pilot episode aired in May this year, and felicitously closed with a rendition of Journey's "Don't Stop Believin'" that rescued it from eternal association as the song that accompanied the letdown of The Sopranos' concluding moments. Unfortunately, if the second episode, which aired last Wednesday, is any evidence, it's all downhill from here. The advertising campaign, as is so often the case, is far more clever than the show itself.
From the reader mailbag: Curious to know what you and Bitch readers think about threesomes. I tried a threesome, and feelings got hurt just like I'd feared they might. I think you gotta be very sure there's no competition between the three, and everyone really is into it (probably obvious, but you know...)
She's certainly not alone in her curiosity. In my dating life I seem to encounter a lot of guys who are not shy about hinting—or just plain asking outright—that they would like to have a threesome with another woman. And apparently they are in good company:
"Threesomes are undoubtedly the new 'Holy Grail' of sex," says Vicki Vantoch, author of The Threesome Handbook: A Practical Guide to Sleeping with Three (Thunder's Mouth Press). "Most people have either had a three-way or thought about it. Yes, even women." (ed: because all women are vanilla and only men have kinks? FAIL.) A recent ABC poll ranked threesomes as the most popular fantasy in America."

DEFINITION of 'Dividend Frequency'
How often a dividend is paid by an individual stock or fund. The most common dividend frequencies are annually, biannually and quarterly.
There are no uniform calendar dates for when dividends are paid; it depends on the individual company's fiscal calendar. Special or one-time dividends are not measured in terms of their frequency because they only appear sporadically.
INVESTOPEDIA EXPLAINS 'Dividend Frequency'
While the dividend rate of a security (such as a common stock) may be in constant flux, the dividend frequency will rarely change.
Most equity investors are used to receiving quarterly dividends for the stocks that have instituted a dividend. Monthly dividends, although uncommon, can also be found, typically in securities or funds with extremely dependable cash flows.

|'Les Miserables' star Russell Crowe
The 'Les Miserables' actor took on the mammoth task of digging trenches for his Plane Trees for drainage without the use of machinery at his home in Coffs Harbour, Australia, and insisted the heavy gardening work was a great workout.
He wrote on his Twitter page: "1 hour and 20 mins pick and shovel digging trenches around Plane trees prepping them for mulch, holy s**t great work out, 2 down 48 to go ! (sic)"
In a later update, however, the 49-year-old star appeared to be regretting his decision to garden unaided, tweeting: "2 hrs on the pick and shovel, 8 more trees. 40 to go ... getting that bitten off more than I can chew feeling (sic)"
Explaining the reason for his digging marathon, the 'Gladiator' star said he was getting rid of surrounding kikuyu grass - which is often considered to be a toxic weed - to help his trees grow.
He clarified: "Not planting , digging up kikuyu roots, turning and shaping soil at the base, digging circular drainage ditches, prep for mulch - Plane Trees (sic)"
When asked why he didn't use a motorised digger to aid him, Russell said: "Because its' not as much fun (sic)".
However, upon consideration he conceded: "No doubt, I'll probably be wishing one was around by mid morning (sic)"

Carl Zeiss Photo Contest 2012 Announced
Carl Zeiss Photo Contest 2012 Announced
From Carl Zeiss:
Carl Zeiss Photo Contest 2012 seeks moments without limits
Entries until January 15, 2013 on Flickr
Oberkochen/Germany, 12.12.2012
"The moment that knows no limits" is the motto of the Carl Zeiss Photo Contest 2012, which begins today and runs until January 15, 2013. As in every year, the contest is open to anyone, as long as pictures are taken with a ZEISS lens. It does not matter if an image has been created with an SLR reflex camera or with a Nokia smartphone with a built-in ZEISS lens.
The theme
There are moments in life when suddenly everything is possible. In such a moment, nothing can hold you back – no routine, no comfort, no walls and no boundaries in this world. "We want to see moments that are so full of energy that they create room for something completely new," explains Martin Dominicus, Head of Marketing for the Carl Zeiss Camera Lens Division.
Carl Zeiss invites photographers from around the world to look for these moments and to submit an image that fits the theme by January 15. "We intentionally chose to keep the theme relatively open so that photographers can interpret it in very different and creative ways. We are very curious what we will receive," says Dominicus.
As in 2011, the contest can be followed on Flickr, the online photo community. Participants should upload their best image to the theme "The moment that knows no limits" on the OFFICIAL Carl Zeiss Lenses Group on Flickr(
) and tag it with the keyword "
The jury
After January 15, a jury with Carl Zeiss employees and professional photographers will select the best images and nominate the photographers for the shortlist. The jury will evaluate both the idea behind the image as well as the execution. The jury will in particular look for images that have been consciously composed and that play with photographic stylistic elements. The most prominent jury member will be the light artist and photographer JanLeonardo Woellert. He knows all about moments that cannot hold him back: In his images, Woellert extends the boundaries of perception, sometimes even walking through fire. Woellert is the recipient of the "German Prize for Scientific Photography." His clients include well-known global brands and pop bands.
The jury will award the highest amount of points to images that have been consciously composed and in which one can recognize a story. From the jury's shortlist, the Flickr community will be invited to select the ten best photographers. The images that receive the most "favorites" on Flickr will win.
For more information about the contest and the terms of conditions, please visit
