So I'm still a big fat 0 on the Roll-up-the-rim contest. The score at the office is running at:
Dave: 9/52
Joseph: 0/34
Andy: 1/25
Derek: 0/0
Anne: 4/9
Eric: 0/4
Kelly: 2/5
To make things even more pointed, someone pointed me to the distribution of cups and prizes, and that I live in Ontario, and drink only XL coffees, I should have the highest probability of winning. Hah.
Either way, things are still going well as Kelly just finished her first week at LMI, and she's already cranked out a number of design peices that are bound to please as well as a bunch of Flash work that is looking good. The welcome lunch went well and she's fitting in well with everyone else, that and it seems she's as much of a geek as we all are 🙂
With Kelly on board, and Anne and Eric here we're up to 7 full time now, which is truly very exciting. Next step is another sales and an admin person as soon as costs settle back in again. We also ordered a new server, which is a pleasant thing, as the upgraded specs will allow us to access everything a lot more quickly, and we'll be able to make use of some of the neat bells & whistles that come with Windows Server 2003. That and we'll be able to clear off Jakarta, freeing up another computer for general use.
Finally, we also have some exciting new projects that we're working on, including the Litter Reduction Task force for Waterloo Region, and the Waterloo Law Association. We recently launched drdr.ca, which was a fun combination of country music and psychology – and we're chugging away merrily on a couple of other projects that should also be launching soon. It should be a good week!

They chomped and giggled all through dinner without a word or a nod at me or Cooter. Then after they ate, lickety split they ran right back to Mavis' room. It went on like this for a few days till I couldn't take it no more. I pounded on the door and shouted, "Open up in there!"
Stank opened the door with a half-smile on his face. "What's going on here?" I asked tryin' to keep the pained tones out of my voice.
"I'm glad you're here, Clem, I gots something to ask ya," Stank said.
"You knows you can say anything to me," I said.
"Okay, fine then," he said puffing up to his full height. "Will you be my best man?"
"Mavis and I… we're getting married!
"What about the job?! What about the land spec-u-lotion and getting back to Earth and taking care of Old Man Cooter?"
"You're not losing a gang member, you're gaining a brother."
"I thought we already was brothers."
"Nonsense, now it'll be official."
"What about the bank of '49?"
"We'll do that soon as my fiancé's finishes her calculations. No need to rush."
"So what have you two been doing this whole durn time?"
"Well we started planning the bank job, then I said something intelligent-like about if we rob the bank and buy tickets everybody would know where we gots the money. And then she said, 'You so smart, Stank—"
"Wait that's exactly what I said before and you told me to stop worrying."
"Maybe you didn't say it right or loud enough."
"You took my ideas and my woman!"
"She ain't your woman," Stank said. "And—"
"I ain't nobody's woman, but my own self," Mavis said.

Media release: First they came for Irn Bru
Wellington (16 January 2018): The New Zealand Initiative is concerned that sugar tax advocates are misleading the public by pretending to punish manufacturers rather than consumers.
Responding to renewed calls for a sugar tax, policy analyst Jenesa Jeram says there are still no grounds for introducing such a tax in New Zealand.
Jeram says that trying to regulate the sugar content of sugary drinks, as University of Waikato researcher Dr Lynne Chepulis recommends, is likely to have unintended consequences.
In the United Kingdom, such product reformulations have been deeply unpopular. A recent announcement that the Scottish favourite Irn Bru will be reducing its sugar content has seen customers stockpiling their beloved beverage. A reformulation of Lucozade in the UK has also seen sales plummet.
Jeram points out "Trying to pitch a sugar tax as a tax on manufacturers is disingenuous. What we are going to end up with is either a bunch of inferior products on the market that consumers do not want, or sugary drinks will continue to be available at a higher cost to consumers."
"The trend for introducing sugar taxes overseas is growing faster than the evidence base that the tax will reduce obesity. The evidence that is coming in is that manufacturers who reformulate their products face the risk of consumer backlash. Rather than jumping on the bandwagon, New Zealand should be waiting to see whether the sugar taxes overseas are actually improving health outcomes."
"Kiwis might not understand the appeal of Irn Bru in Scotland, but we sure know what it's like when our favourite brands try and force change upon us. Let's not pretend for a second that this is a change consumers want. The beverage market is already flowing with low sugar or zero sugar alternatives for those who want them."

Following Thursday's missile attacks against Syria, the Trump Administration has vowed to keep the pressure up against the Syrian government, though exactly what that means means uncertain, with officials sending mixed signals on whether they're going to militarily impose regime change on Syria or not.
In the meantime, they can expect to hear non-stop heckling from various hawks, demanding more attacks and more aggression as a matter of course, and insisting anything short of that would be taken as a sign of weakness by the international community.
And where there is hawkish sentiment to be expressed, Sen. Lindsey Graham (R – SC) won't be far behind. Graham today insisted that by continuing to carry out airstrikes from the base the United States attacked, Syria was telling President Trump "F you." He went on to demand 5,000 to 6,000 US ground troops be sent to Syria, both to wipe out ISIS and then to impose regime change therein.
Turkey was one of the first nations to ditch a long-time alliance with Assad in favor of calls for regime change, believing it would be bad for the Kurds to have a Sunni Arab government in power there. Turkish officials are also pushing the US to launch more attacks on Syria, insisting that the US attacks on Thursday are just "cosmetic" if they don't lead to a full-scale war of regime change.

Sunny has really no need for any more publicity, she's one of the most popular adult industry models worldwide. She is loved in every corner of the world. A latest research claims that her popularity has grown so fast in the past three years that she is better known that other pornstar celebrities such as Sasha Gray and others. Thats not a surprise to be honest, she is one of the best cock munchers that I have ever seen on video and since that she joined the Live Pornstars crew over at CherryPimps.com and the other site called Wildoncam.com, they both belong to the same network and this network is the only that has the rights on the live porn shows that everyone is talking about these past few weeks.
It's been a couple of months that the news hit the fan and everyone started to check out the sites and the live porn shows that they broadcast every day of the week. When I first spoke about this site and the pornstars that fuck live on them, there were no more than 50,000 members that had already signed up to watch the shows. Now and thats just 2 months later, there are close to half a million members, they fucking doubled in 60 days!!!
I have no doubt that this happened, I mean look at her and keep in mind that there are another 900 plus babes that do Live Porn Shows on this network, all of them are pornstars, all of them are gorgeous and all of them are famous. You can't go wrong with this combination and for this I want to invite you over sometime this week when you have time to check it out for yourself!
You wont have to sign up to check out a few of the latest shows that went down this week, you can watch the recorded version of the Famous Pornstars that fucked live on cam, so that you can have a taste of what they're doing over there!

It may be a slow summer season, but The Concession Golf Club is not resting on its accolades.
Just last week Rolex installed two two-faced clocks at the exclusive East Manatee county club. Both stand 10-feet high. One is located at the bag drop when you check in. It also can be seen from the No. 10 tee box. You cannot miss it. The other one is near the putting green behind the practice facility.
There are only 40 clubs worldwide that have the impressive looking clocks. They can be found at historic courses such as Pebble Beach, St. Andrews, Muirfield Village, Carnoustie and Torrey Pines.
There are only a few clubs in Florida where they can be seen. TPC at Sawgrass and Bay Hill also have them.
The Rolex clocks did not cost The Concession one dime, other than installing them. Rolex also maintains and services them for the life of the clocks at no charge. "It is a pretty exclusive club," said general manager Bruce Cassidy Jr. "You can't buy them. They (Rolex) provide you with the clocks."
The members of The Concession have co-designer Tony Jacklin to thank for this idea.
Jacklin won a tournament in Japan 40 years ago and one of his prizes was a Rolex watch. They have serviced it for him ever since. While watching a Rolex commercial on television, Jacklin got the idea it would be nice to have a Rolex clock at The Concession.
One of Rolex's commitments to sports is preserving timeless moments. The company has been doing it since 1967 when it initiated a relationship with Arnold Palmer.
So Jacklin contacted longtime friend Scott Kelly, who is the marketing director for the European Tour. Kelly pitched the idea to Rolex, and it was a done deal.
It was also Jacklin's idea to name a golf club The Concession after the 1969 Ryder Cup when Jack Nicklaus conceded a 2-foot putt to Jacklin at Royal Birkdale. It preserved a tie for the European team, but the Americans retained the Cup.
If Jacklin would have missed that putt in front of thousands of Brits, it would have been an outright U.S. victory. Years later, Nicklaus said he did not want to embarrass Jacklin, who several months earlier had won the Open Championship.
Some 47 years later, Jacklin and Nicklaus combined to design The Concession. Now, there are two Rolex clocks to recognize those timeless moments.
Concession tidbits
The new head pro at The Concession is Barry Hinckley. A graduate of Stetson University, Hinckley, 40, was an assistant at Scioto Country Club before taking The Concession post. Scioto, a Donald Ross designed tract near Columbus, Ohio, was the home course for Nicklaus while growing up in Columbus. ... The Concession and the Ritz-Carlton Members Club will host the Caddie/Member National Championship Nov. 6-8. Visit www.caddiemember.com for complete details.
Chip shots
River Wilderness Country Club in Parrish will be selling limited tee times to the public, starting Oct. 1. Also, the private club has dropped its initiation fee and is offering a $345 monthly fee for new members (single and family). ... Georgia defeated Florida in the 31st annual Florida-Georgia Women's Team Matches, at the Harbor Club in Greensboro, Ga. Area players Wendi Golden, Page Halpin and Tatiana Gammicchia won matches for Team Florida.

SSA chief to run for re-election
He unveiled an ambitious five-year plan two years ago, to propel Singapore to among the top four Asian nations in aquatics.
In June, Singapore Swimming Association (SSA) president Lee Kok Choy will be looking to renew his mandate at the national sports association's annual general meeting to continue his work.
"The plan is to try and continue, to make this (plan) happen," the 66-year-old said at the sidelines of SSA's sponsorship renewal with Yakult Singapore last Friday, when asked by The Straits Times if he will stand again in the biennial elections.
Formerly the NSA's secretary general and vice-president (diving), Lee beat Singapore Bowling Federation president Jessie Phua 17-16 in the 2014 elections, and returned unopposed two years later. - LIM SAY HENG

Every time I go to Tennants in Leyburn I never cease to be amazed that the place exists at all.
If you were setting up an international auction house with a multi-million pound turnover, you wouldn't choose to locate it in a small market town on the edge of the Yorkshire Dales would you?
But there it is, a vast stone-built structure on the edge of Leyburn, a massive statement about what can be achieved in rural North Yorkshire with the right level of ambition, a following wind and a lot of hard work.
Sunday lunch in The Garden Rooms is certainly a more sedate affair than a Monday night in the Majestic. The light and airy restaurant room has the feel and ambience of a contemporary hotel dining room and one that's been finished to a high standard.
The main talking point with our main course roasts were the Yorkshire puddings which were of historic proportions. Sylvia thought she had not experienced anything quite so big, crisp and light. I thought the crispness was a bit overdone in that I prefer the contrast of a little bit of doughyness to soak up more gravy but that's bit nit-picky even for a adopted Yorkshireman talking about the county's signature dish.
My sirloin of beef – Waterford Farm (near Kirkby Malzead) 45-day aged (£14.50) – was butter-soft medium rare and completely on the money. Great gravy, duck-fat roasties, carrot and truffle puree, half a roasted red onion, chantenay carrots and beautifully glazed roast parsnips completed a pretty peerless plateful.
Sylvia's leg of lamb (£14) was almost as good and shared the plate with the top-notch roasties and the veg I enjoyed plus some spring cabbage. Super-tender and lean, she thought it ranked only a seven (out of ten) on her patented Lambyness Flavour Scale. Not bad but not up there with the very best.
I liked the lavender shortbread biscuit which came with my dark chocolate and orange crème brulee (£5.50). The brulee itself was a little disappointing. Rich certainly but I prefer a crunchier topping and a smoother custard.
Single glasses of house fizz and red and white wine, plus a latte, added £17.50 to the £62.95 bill. Service was smoothly discreet and very good.

Hotstar Specials has launched Out of Love, a drama series that explores the idea of crumbling relationships in current times and the emotional dilemma that erupts from these complex connections. Starring Rasika Dugal and Purab Kohli in the lead, the show also stars Soni Razdan, Harsh Chhaya, Aanjjan Srivaastav and Sanghmitra Hitaishi in pivotal roles.
The show is a strong take on the issues that people have been facing in their complex relationships. In modern times where everything is about social media, the essence of real connections is, somewhere, getting dismal. Modern relationships can be traumatic and it's hard for the current generation to come forth and mend issues if their relationship is falling apart.
© Hotstar
Do you find yourself asking why modern relationships are so hard to maintain? Well, MensXP got a chance to sit with Purab and Rasika and discuss what's basically going wrong with relationships front these days.
Are there any ways to rekindle the romance in a relationship wherein the couple is falling out of love?
Purab: If love is lost, for me, there is no way to rekindle it and there are no ways to go about it if you don't love the person. For rekindling the romance, you need to be in love again or find the lost love.
Rasika: It's hard to identify at first if the couple is out of love or if they are just going through a rough patch that they are trying to overcome and maybe just need a conversation to settle things. It's a sort of a grey area when you are trying to figure things out. I guess I think the best way to go about it is to have a conversation.
© Hotstar
In modern times, that we are a part of, we see relationships falling apart and somewhere, people aren't ready to fix or mend issues that they have. Where are we exactly going wrong?
Rasika: I think it's not about the modern era. I am not sure if this is happening just now or it's happened before too. Now, we are more open to discussing it, maybe on social media, and that's why we have an idea that relationships are falling apart. I feel people shouldn't avoid the confrontation bit to tell their partner what is it that they are finding difficult to come to terms with.
Purab: I believe we are in a time where a sense of self is coming to us. We now have a voice and people openly discuss their issues. I feel the dynamics of every relationship are undergoing a transition and when that happens, it does have its consequences and it takes time for those minds to get mature enough to deal with it and learn from the experiences of the older people. I think if they come to terms with the decision they take, they will be able to fix or mend issues in their relationships.
© Hotstar
Back in the old days, people believed in long-term commitments and cut to present, people are scared of relationships and are somewhere lacking the strength to commit. What has changed over the years?
Purab: I think, firstly, we now have trust issues and secondly, there is this fear of losing out and always wanting something better. These are the prominent reasons that I think of why people are scared to commit. It's not easy to trust people easily these days when it comes to romantic relationships and there is this constant fear of getting hurt.
Rasika: Or just a choice to have a life that has more options, which is fair enough.
As the show talks about infidelity, do you think cheating on your partner can, anyway, be justified?
Purab: I think to lie or cheat can never be justified. I think it's good, to be honest.
Rasika: Justification, there's none for sure. There is redemption for sure if the couple decides to work it out and never repeat such a mistake again. I think to err is human but yes, there's no justification to it.
© Hotstar
But, when someone is cheated on, it's hard to find a similar perspective of love that you had before and it's not easy to go back to trusting the whole idea of falling in love. Right?
Purab: It's surely hard when the trust is broken. More than dis-trusting the person, you find it hard to trust yourself to make a decision. I think that's a hurdle that one has to overcome and the second is to instil trust in someone else. It's a lot of emotional self-work that one has to do to regain the confidence at the relationship front. If things don't go according to your plan, it definitely becomes harder but you need to remember that you're evolving as a human being in this process. You won't be the same person when you made that choice earlier.
Rasika: I agree with what Purab said. Yes, it's hard to get back but you do learn and you know what you don't want per se at your relationship front.

We have noticed that a lot of youngsters slip into depression when they face something like this. What do you have to say about it?
Rasika: It's not easy for both partners. I believe that one should seek professional help, if required. It's a good way to deal with the hurt.
Purab: Definitely, it's depressing when the chosen one chooses someone else over you. It's a breakdown for one's self and as Rasika said you should seek professional help and it does work. If you shut yourself down and keep everything within yourself, you would explode.
That was a rather illuminating discussion as we hope it helps you out, if you're facing similar problems in your relationship.

It's easy to go overboard with sweets during the holiday season. But overconsumption of sugar, month after month, can jeopardize your oral and general health. A sugary diet nourishes the bacteria that cause tooth decay. Eating too much sugar over time also promotes general health problems such as diabetes and excessive weight gain.
The beginning of a new year is a great time to bring your diet back into balance. But if you really want to cut down on sugar, you'll need to be aware that there is a lot of sugar hiding in foods you where wouldn't normally suspect it. Here are some examples:
Ketchup. Do you like ketchup on your burger and fries? For every tablespoon of ketchup you use, you'll be adding about 4 grams of sugar (one teaspoon). That can add up pretty quickly into a significant amount of sugar!
Canned tomato soup. Read the label of your favorite brand and you might see as much as 12 grams of sugar per half-cup serving. That equals three teaspoons of sugar in every half cup of soup—even more in a full bowl!
Granola. You may think of granola as a healthy choice for breakfast. Yet you're likely to see sugar listed as the second ingredient on many favorite brands—right after oats. This typically adds up to 15 grams of sugar per serving. That's almost 4 teaspoons, in a food promoted as healthful!
Yogurt. Here, the amount of sugar varies widely among brands and flavors. One container of vanilla yogurt might contain 3 or more teaspoons of added sugar. Put that on a breakfast serving of granola, and your first meal of the day has already topped the 6-teaspoon daily limit recommended by the World Health Organization.
So, to prevent sugar from sneaking up on you, it's important to read those labels! And if you have any questions about sugar and oral health, please contact us or schedule an appointment for a consultation. You can learn more by reading the Dear Doctor magazine articles "The Bitter Truth About Sugar" and "Nutrition and Oral Health."
Visiting the dentist for cleanings, checkups and needed dental work is one of the pillars of dental health, along with daily hygiene and a nutritious diet. But an estimated 50% of people have some form of anxiety about dental visits — and around 15% actually avoid care because of it.
If you feel nervous about dental visits, there are ways to reduce your anxiety. First and foremost is to find a compassionate provider you trust and feel comfortable around, who listens non-judgmentally to your concerns.
But that's only the beginning: depending on your degree of anxiety, you could require more help to relax through sedation medication. The drugs and methods used can induce various degrees of consciousness ranging from mild relaxation to more sleep-like states.
The most basic is oral sedation. Typically, this involves taking the medication by mouth about an hour before an appointment. You can take it by itself to increase relaxation or along with other forms of sedation (like inhaling nitrous oxide gas) or local anesthesia.
Beyond inhalation, a higher level of sedation involves injecting the medication into the blood stream through an intravenous (IV) drip. This induces a deeper "semi-awake" level of consciousness, but differs from general anesthesia, which places a patient into unconsciousness to block pain during a major procedure. With IV sedation you may still be able to respond to verbal commands or touch; and although you're monitored for vital signs you won't need medical assistance to maintain breathing and heart function.
With today's advanced sedation drugs and methods, we can control dosages to achieve just the right level of sedation, as well as reduce the amount of time the drug may affect you afterward in recovery. Many drugs also have an amnesiac effect so that you'll remember little if any about the procedure afterward.
Whether by mouth, inhalation or with an IV, sedation therapy can make a difference no matter what your level of anxiety. And if your dental visits continue to be comfortable and pleasant ones, you're more likely to receive the care you need to keep your teeth and gums healthy.
If you would like more information on sedation methods during dental care, please contact us or schedule an appointment for a consultation. You can also learn more about this topic by reading the Dear Doctor magazine article "IV Sedation in Dentistry."
What makes an attractive smile? Of course, shiny, straight and defect-free teeth are a big factor. But there's another equally important element: all your teeth have come in.
Sometimes, though, they don't: one or more teeth may remain up in the gums, a condition known as impaction. And if they're in the front like the upper canines (the pointed teeth on either side of the front four incisors) your smile's natural balance and symmetry can suffer.
Impaction usually happens due to lack of space on a small jaw. Previously erupted teeth crowd into the space of teeth yet to come in, preventing them from doing so. As a result the latter remain hidden within the gums.
While impaction can interfere with the smile appearance, it can cause health problems too. Impacted teeth are at higher risk for abscesses (localized areas of infection) and can damage the roots of other teeth they may be pressing against. That's why it's desirable for both form and function to treat them.
We begin first with an orthodontic examination to fully assess the situation. At some point we'll want to pinpoint the impacted teeth's precise location and position. While x-rays are useful for locating impacted teeth, many specialists use cone beam CT (CBCT) technology that produces highly detailed three-dimensional images viewable from different vantage points.
If the tooth is in too extreme a position, it might be best to remove it and later replace it with a dental impact or similar restoration once we've completed other necessary orthodontic treatment. But if the tooth is in a reasonable position, we might be able to "move" the tooth into its proper place in the jaw in coordination with these other tooth-movement efforts to make room for it.
To begin this process, an oral surgeon or periodontist surgically exposes the tooth crown (the normally visible portion) through the gums. They then bond a small bracket to the crown and attach a small gold chain. An orthodontist will attach the other end to orthodontic hardware that will exert downward pressure on the tooth to gradually bring it into normal position.
Dealing with impacted teeth of this nature is often part of a comprehensive effort to correct the bite. If we're successful, it could permanently transform both the smile and overall dental health.
If you would like more information on treating impacted teeth, please contact us or schedule an appointment for a consultation. You can also learn more about this topic by reading the Dear Doctor magazine article "Exposing Impacted Canines."

At the beginning of the month, Amber Portwood spoke with reporters from Us Weekly and admitted she was feeling sapped of energy. However, despite being pregnant, it had nothing to do with her hormones or morning sickness.
As you may know, the 27-year-old reality star is pregnant with a baby boy along with her boyfriend, Andrew Glennon, and is expecting to give birth on the 13th of May, but that's not why she's feeling down in the dumps lately.
The Teen Mom OG alum admitted she has an illness called gestational diabetes, which is the reason for her struggles. According to the star, she has to visit with the doctor once a week for blood pressure screenings and monitoring.
Amber said to Us Weekly that it'd been a big problem for her, and she can't go anywhere, but there are things she can do to mitigate its effects.
According to the Center for Disease Control and Prevention, approximately nine percent of pregnant women are inflicted with gestational diabetes.
For the sake of her child, as well as her health, Amber has to eat healthily and exercise regularly, just like everyone else. Portwood admitted she doesn't eat a lot of bread and if she does, it has to be whole grain, and she typically avoids sugar products.
As for her man, Glennon has Amber's back and supports her unconditionally whenever he can. According to the Teen Mom alum, Andrew does whatever he has to; he reads baby books and pamphlets to prepare for their child.
"He's a good guy," the Teen Mom star said. Andrew and Amber intend to raise their child in Indianapolis so she can be close to her nine-year-old daughter, Leah, whom she shares with her ex-spouse, Gary Shirley.

Seven members of a sex grooming ring have been convicted of abusing children from Oxford.
Seven members of a sex grooming ring have been convicted of abusing children from Oxford.
An Old Bailey jury heard six girls were drugged and suffered sadistic abuse while aged between 11 and 15.
The court heard victims were plied with alcohol and drugs before being forced to perform sex acts. Some had also been beaten, burned and threatened.
Eight men had denied charges including rape, arranging child prostitution and trafficking between 2004 to 2012.
The judge told the guilty men: "You have been convicted of the most serious offences and long custodial sentences are inevitable."
They are due to be sentenced on 26 June.
Brothers convicted
The abuse began in Oxford but some of the victims would be later taken around the country to be offered to other men who were in contact with the gang.
The court heard how the men identified vulnerable girls for abuse then groomed each one of them until they were under the control of the gang.
Kamar Jamil, 27, and brothers Akhtar Dogar, 32, and Anjum Dogar, 31, and were convicted of rape, facilitating child prostitution and trafficking.
Assad Hussain, 32, was convicted of two counts of sexual activity with a child.
Mohammed Karrar, 38, was found guilty of rape of a child under 13 and procuring abortion, conspiracy to rape, child prostitution and trafficking.
Mohammed Karrar's brother Bassam, 33, was found guilty of rape and conspiracy to rape girls under 13, child prostitution and trafficking.
Zeeshan Ahmed, 27, was found guilty of sexual activity with a child.
Mohammed Hussain, 24, was found not guilty of sexual activity with a child.
Following the verdicts there was a scuffle in the dock as Ahmed struck out at Mohammed Hussain when he was cleared of the charges against him.
Sold for sex
The Old Bailey was told the key members of the group used and abused the six victims in a systematic and organised sex trafficking ring over eight years until their arrest in 2012.
The abuse would always begin in Oxford but some of the victims would be taken around the country to be offered to other men who were in contact with the gang.
The court heard how the men identified vulnerable girls for abuse and then groomed each one of them until they were under the control of the gang.
They were then each either abused by the men themselves, given to their friends or offered at a price to others who were not on trial.
The youngest girl to be targeted was 11 years old. The girls were mostly chosen because their unsettled or troubled lives made them easier to manipulate.

Today again I gonna write about marriage. Those are following my blog might say "dude she got Marriage phobia". Yes you are absolutely correct I am suffering from Marriage phobia.
In India people like me who are single and not ready to mingle have to end up with a stranger in arrange marriage .Arrange marriage definition "When two stranger exchange their marital vows in front of strangers to live together it becomes (strange)arrange marriage". I never wrote such a complicated definition before!!!!.
If you are the victim of arrange marriage then here are few questions and answers to improve your GK.
How I will identify "my special one"?
Hmm let me think…..Sorry no answer. Experience people say when that special person comes in front of you "butterfly fly in your stomach and heart beat increases". I suffered from these scenario 1000 times whenever I saw cute guys.
Tip: Never fall for the scholars outdated Gyan .
Can I adjust with His family? (asked by gal)
Especially this question is asked by gal. After all she is the one who leaves her everything and follow the guy. Respect all family members .Try to stay away from in-laws. For few days all adjust but as the time passes all will be having their terms and condition. Poor gal has to suffer.
Tip: Not happy then time to talk to hubby. Even he doesn't care then babe you married the wrong person. Spank him and say "%%$% you screwed my life"
Gal is the only one has to adjust and sacrifice?
No never. Adjust little bit and see how is it going. If hubby is not adjusting then time to teach him a lesson.
Tip: Never bend like Beckham. Strike in kitchen and …… room
Is she gonna love me?(Asked by guys)
If you respect her, love her even she will love you. It's like give and take business if she doesn't respect you, care for you then Boy you are doomed because you married a daemon.
Tip: Try to understand her but not her friends before marriage.
Can I have my freedom? (Asked by both)
Till some extent both can have their freedom.
Guy: If you want to have candle light dinner with your female friend then it is not possible
Gal: If you think wearing micro mini skirt you wanna go for a ride with colleague then it is not possible
Tip: Try to understand your role in the play of "marriage".
Can I still wear my ultra cool clothes? (Asked by gal)
If you are talking about low neck t-shirt or micro mini skirt then answer is big "NO"
If your hubby doesn't have problem then you are the luckiest person because your husband is really nice
Tip: Try to keep yourself updated with time but within the boundary
In one word marriage changes everything. Life, clothes, and responsibility….and yeah even your FB status. I love to stay as I am but AVL is not ready to keep me by his side for life long. FL says " I pity the guy whom you gonna marry". I have heard this dialogue tons of time so it doesn't make much difference.

For me, blazers are a wardrobe essential, you can style them so many different ways, and they are a timeless piece that will never go out of style. Whether you prefer patterned blazers like a Prince of Wales check or just prefer to stick to a plain black blazer, here's some ways I love to style my blazers.
Roll up Your Sleeves
I love to wear a blazer with the sleeves rolled up, often wearing an oversized blazer, can look big and boxy so rolling up the sleeves can add a nice shape. This is especially good in the summer months when it's warm outside and you just want to add a light jacket.
Round the Shoulders
For an evening look, or on a hotter day you can style a blazer by simply wearing it over your shoulders. This gives a classy and instantly dressed up feel to any outfit. You then have the option of wearing it as a jacket when it gets colder in the evening.
As a Transitional Piece
Whilst blazers may be known as a spring/summer piece they are the perfect transitional piece to bring your wardrobe into autumn. For months like September and October when it's not yet cold enough to bring out your larger over coats during the day, a blazer can be the perfect in between piece to compliment any outfit.
As a Suit
If you have trousers or jeans in the same colour as your blazer why not style it as a suit. Suits are the perfect workplace attire and can look great for daytime or nighttime. Style a suit with a pair of flats and handbag for day, or switch it up to heels and a clutch for an evening outfit.
With Accessories
Add some accessories to your blazer to change it up, think about cinching your blazer in at the waist with a belt. Or even add a brooch to the lapel to add a bit of sparkle to your outfit.

2 cups of warm water
1 cup warm milk
1 Tbsp of active dry yeast
1 tsp of salt
1/2 tsp of sugar
1 egg
2 Tbsp of oil
5 1/2 cups of sifted all purpose flour (+)
sesame seeds (optional)
butter (optional)
Pour warm water into the medium container, add yeast, sugar, salt, egg, warm milk, 1 Tbsp of the oil an mix everything well.
Add sifted flour and quickly work the mixture into a nice dough. The dough should be very soft and relatively sticky to your hands.
If it is too sticky and hard to work with, rub a little oil into your palms and fingers and keep on kneading the dough.
Rub remaining oil over the dough and cover the lid over the container.
Place the container in a warm place until the dough doubles its size (for about 40 minutes).
PREHEAT THE OVEN at 500F.
I use my pizza stone to make fine Naan. If you are doing so, leave the stone inside the oven (center rack) while it is getting heated.
Once the dough is ready, turn it over to a floured surface and shape tennis ball size circles out of it.
It will still be a little hard to work with the sticky dough. To avoid the dough from sticking to your fingers, frequently flour them and work faster.
(If it makes it easier, dip the dough balls in the flour once). Let the balls rest for about 10 minutes.
Once the dough has rested, put one risen ball of dough on the floured work surface and push it out with your fingertips to a 6 or 7-inch round.
Gently pick it up and toss it from the left palm to the right palm multiple times.
The dough will be sticky. So, try to work faster.
This process will create a nice triangular or oval-shaped dough.
If you wish, you can spread some butter on top of the flat dough and sprinkle some sesame seeds.
Open the oven door and gently place the dough on top of the hot pizza stone.
Bake for about 3 minutes and take it out when the top has slightly golden-brown spots.
Remove the bread with a wooden spatula from the pizza stone and continue with the remaining dough balls.
When I use the pizza stone, I always make 1 bread at a time. If you are utilizing your baking sheets, the temperature of the oven will remain the same.
But you can place 2 doughs on the same baking sheet to save you some time. With this method, baking will take a little longer (about 5 minutes per each entry).
Enjoy your home-made Naans, according arbuz.com.

Nothing is more of a buzz wrecker when you're talking about cool than talking about cool.
It is not, after all, a quality one can anatomize or acquire. People possess it inherently or not at all, and those who have it are typically too smart to claim it. Those who lack it are well advised to find other virtues to cultivate.
That Dao-Yi Chow, 42, and Maxwell Osborne, 34, the designers who made their names with the streetwise label Public School, are cool has never been called into question. It is almost as much of a calling card as their skills at design.
They grew up in New York — Jackson Heights, Queens, for Mr. Chow; Kensington, Brooklyn, for Mr. Osborne — and met in the early aughts at Sean Combs's streetwear label Sean John, where Mr. Chow was a senior executive and the younger Mr. Osborne an intern with no background or particular interest in design.
The two hit it off, though, and when in 2005 Mr. Chow opened a fashion boutique in Miami called Arrive, he brought in his former colleague to help him start a private label for the store.
They formed the label in 2008, calling it Public School in a nod to their city-kid backgrounds. Almost from the first they found a ready reception not just from mainstream editors but also from the style bloggers and influencers who, even then, were making an impact on the industry.
And while it took the pair a while to find their aesthetic footing, eventually they arrived at a signature style of layered, monochrome men's wear, clothes that added tailoring to familiar slouchy elements of athletic and urban wear, rejiggering them as a new kind of masculine uniform.
The positive early critical reaction was matched by commercial success, and the two men — neither of whom has formal design training — were inducted into the inaugural group of the Council of Fashion Designers of America's incubator program in 2010.
Then, in one of the abrupt changes of fortune so common in a fickle business, Public School was dropped by Barneys New York, which had accounted for more than half their orders, and Mr. Chow and Mr. Osborne shut the label down.
"Even now, we always think we're one season away from closing the doors," Mr. Chow said.
But that seems unlikely. In 2012, the two decided to double down on their vision and revive the label. Within a year, they had won the 2013 CFDA Swarovski Award for Menswear and the CFDA/Vogue Fashion Fund, which came with a $300,000 kitty.
They went on to score the 2014 CFDA Menswear Designer of the Year Award and the 2014/2015 International Woolmark Prize, simultaneously quadrupling the number of stores that carried the brand.
Then, last year, Mr. Chow and Mr. Osborne became fashion's version of an indie band signed to a major label when they were tapped to be creative directors of DKNY, the accessible sibling line of Donna Karan International.
At the time of their hiring, the French luxury conglomerate LVMH Moët Hennessy Louis Vuitton owned the brand. But over the summer, LVMH agreed to sell Donna Karan to G-III Apparel Group, a manufacturer based in New York's garment district that holds licensing agreements with Calvin Klein, Ivanka Trump, Levi's, Tommy Hilfiger and the National Football League.
While LVMH and G-III are completing the deal, Mr. Chow and Mr. Osborne will present their third DKNY collection at New York Fashion Week before a tough crowd. G-III executives will be watching.
So will the industry supporters who, while they are rooting for this duo, are aware that critics questioned whether this mainstream brand and designers known for their downtown cool are a natural match.
Back to the Future
Go hunting for the source of the cool that Mr. Osborne and Mr. Chow so effortlessly project, and before long you may find yourself at a 12-story former Con Edison substation on West 26th Street. There, in 1990, a small group of New Yorkers got together to create a club they named Building, which became a necessary outpost of New York night life.
Though Mr. Osborne is too young to have made the scene at Building, Mr. Chow was a regular at the Thursday Night Train parties and Friday Powerhouse events where a dream roster (KRS-One, Run-DMC, De La Soul, Black Sheep, the Beastie Boys, Shabba Ranks, among many others) performed for a crowd that itself seems almost like an imaginary cross-section of New Yorkers — artists, photographers, designers, models, B-boys, downtown girls and celebrities like Russell Simmons, Sofia Coppola, Madonna, Bjork and Pedro Almodóvar. They were people famous for the old-fashioned reason: They had actual accomplishments.
"There was this sense of individuality then," Mr. Chow said on a recent rainy summer day. "Everyone was figuring out night life, figuring out the bits and pieces that defined who they were."
There was (as there has traditionally been in New York) a kind of accelerated cultural metabolic rate that kept people in search of the next new movement, talent, artist or scene. "It's different now that everyone has access to the same information and the same things," Mr. Chow said.
The designers were sitting at a table in a glassed-in conference room at Public School's modest garment district headquarters. They had just returned from a DKNY trip to Asia and seemed faintly jet-lagged.
Nursing an ear infection, Mr. Osborne propped his head on his hand. The angular and athletic Mr. Chow leaned forward on his elbows, looking half-ready to pounce or to bolt.
If the two felt the pressures of rejuvenating the fortunes of a label that is, for the moment, effectively between owners, while also sustaining the identity of their own brand, it didn't show.
It probably helped that critics heaped praise on the most recent Public School collections. Their latest women's wear show, held in a blue-chip art gallery that once housed the Roxy nightclub, "conjured New York City in its wild, pre-gentrified days," Maya Singer wrote in Vogue.
The Public School men's wear show that followed it extended and amplified that impression, riffing on references to '90s club wear: boiler suits and quilted parkas, leather Perfectos with floppy lapels, tunic-type shirts with clear origins in oversize throwback jerseys, flat-brimmed gunslinger hats.
After some wobbly seasons during which it seemed as if the demands of nascent fashion stardom had separated the designers from their creative wellspring ("We kind of lost ourselves," Mr. Chow said), Public School appeared to find strength in a return to its aesthetic roots.
"Part of myself had been running from who we were," Mr. Osborne said. "That was the first collection where we referenced something really personal, where we felt we could call friends from high school and say, 'This is a collection you should really see.'"
Though there was nothing obviously retro about those collections, they resembled stuff anyone who happened to be there would have recognized from a bygone New York City, from a time when ransacking vintage emporiums, thrift stores, military surplus shops and the sale racks of obscure Belgian designers at Barneys to arrive at a style was not only a preoccupation but also a bona fide form of self-expression.
"We talk a lot about reappropriating," Mr. Chow said. "It's one of the drivers we always go back to. We take things that weren't necessarily meant for us and redo them our way, for us."
The most important and influential element of urban life in his clubbing days was the dancer, Mr. Chow said. "Whether it was at Building or Red Zone or Mars or Pay Day or Milky Way, the dancer was always the flyest person there," he said. "I credit my creative drive to those five or six years of my life."
Like so many who came of age in New York City high schools (Mr. Chow attended the elite Stuyvesant High School, Mr. Osborne Bishop Ford Central Catholic High School), the two men evince a sense of knowing, an awareness of how growing up in the city is an education in being tough and staying supple.
"It was a really good time, being a nomad in your own city, with your clothes for the night in a backpack," Mr. Chow said of his high school years, when he roved around town with a posse of friends, doing all the things that cause concerned parents to lose sleep, if not, occasionally, their minds. "You were going to clubs or house parties, and you never knew when you might get home or whether you'd end up sleeping in an apartment and you didn't know whose apartment it was."
Mixing It Up
The packaging and retailing of that attitude is as good a reason as any why the pair was handed the reins at DKNY, a label that, as the designers said when they were hired, "evokes everything our city was always about: energy, disruption, new thinking and transcending all boundaries."
DKNY had not signified any such thing for a long time, a fact of which the brand's owners, were not unmindful.
And so it made perfect sense for a label that had begun to look as if it were designed by committee in Topeka, Kan. — despite the NY in its name — to try to revitalize itself by enlisting a pair of award-winning designers in possession of street cred and the ability to mix it up beyond the confines of the runway and showroom.
"Fashion exists in a world of make believe," Mr. Osborne wrote in July, in an essay for W titled "Why I Stand With Black Lives Matter," which chastened the industry for a lamentable lack of diversity. "As a black man in an overwhelmingly white industry, race is never far from my mind."
Whether at Public School or DKNY, Mr. Osborne and Mr. Chow are less symbols or ambassadors of inclusion than a link to a less fragmented city and a time, one not all that long ago, when chromatic dispersion and diversity were civic givens, when the disparate tribes of New York came together to make music and art and fashion.
"I miss the old New York," Mr. Osborne said.
"No, you don't," Mr. Chow said. "You miss the old you."

Bikini Clad Manning Appears in Vogue
Bikini Clad Manning Appears in Vogue
The Breach-Bang-Clear News Team
The private formerly known as Bradley, released not too long ago from a prison sentence earned for treason, is apparently appearing in Vogue.
Note: the image you see above is not
Bradley Chelsea Manning. Nope, that leggiadrous lady is the photographer who runs Shoot to Thrill Photography (@shoot_to_thrill_photography), whose work and attitude we enjoy very much.
News of Vogue's profile piece on Manning, originally brought to our attention by Military Times reporter Ashley Bunch, will likely not inspire any lust in Breach-Bang-Clear readers. We're only posting it because…well, it's like a bad car wreck, and not just any car wreck. A car wreck between a '71 Chevy Vega and an '01 Pontiac Aztek driven by a dwarf Hillary Clinton impersonator and Judy Clarke, and occupied by Justin Bieber, two clowns, Nancy Pelosi, and Leslie Hall — with all five of the latter in lingerie.
An excerpt from the Vogue piece, written by Nathan Heller, reads,
"It's a June afternoon, and we are sitting in a park along the Hudson River, a short walk from the sleek Tribeca building where Manning has been living since arriving in New York. Today she is dressed with a mixture of straightforward elegance and function: a casual black sleeveless Marc Jacobs dress with playful paisley lining, a small purse from The Row, Borderline boots by Vetements x Dr. Martens, and—the cinching touch—a black utility belt from 5.11 Tactical, a gear company that supplies law enforcement and the military."
You can read the original article right here on ArmyTimes.com; because "…this is what freedom looks like."
Since we know you're interested, you can follow Bradley Chelsea Manning on Instagram, @xychelsea87. Not entirely sure why you would, but there you go. Oh, and here's a little glimpse of all the hawtness you'll find in that Vogue article.
You're welcome?
The News Team
Grunts: bellibone, quaintrelle, and leggiadrous. Admit it…you thought we'd forgot.
1 Bunch is a former USAF K9 handler and one of our Chief Editors troops when he was still active duty; you know the kind. Overachievers who get promoted btz and have shit done before the boss knows he needs it. We're wooing her to our team of reporters now.

Humble Yourself

James 4:10
Humble yourselves before the Lord and he will lift you up.
To be humble is to be modest, unassuming and respectful. To be humble before the Lord, we must set aside our pride, putting others before ourselves and accepting that he is in control.
How difficult is it to lose control of a situation? I went to school in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan. It is by far one of the most beautiful places I have ever called home. However, anyone who looks at the UP on a map can probably guess what winters are like: lots of snow, wind, ice and a little more snow. I can honestly say that there was seldom a day when I didn't see a snowflake in the air at any given time. I loved it.
Now, I had about a six hour drive home to Chicago. Given the fact that it snows in the UP from October to April, I frequently drove home in a snowstorm. A few times, I encountered black ice. It's pretty scary. You drive along, thinking everything is great. Then you hit a patch of ice and your car twists and turns in directions you never intended. If you keep a clear head, you might be able to regain control of the car, but there is no doubt, for at least a few seconds, you have lost control. Each time that happened to me, my heart raced and my hands began to shake. Once the car was straightened out, I took a deep breath, grabbed the wheel at ten and two and focused, grateful that I hadn't landed in the ditch.
These experiences with black ice were terrifying. Suddenly, I didn't know exactly what would happen next. I didn't know if I would crash, hit another car, land in a ditch, or just drive on. In those seconds, I was firmly in God's hands.
We are so blessed that we are not in control of our lives. God has so much more wisdom than us. He knows the end. Like my trips to and from the UP, we are cruising along thinking everything is okay. Then suddenly, we hit the ice, our lives feel like they're skidding out of control. God can get us going in the right direction, if we will only humble ourselves and let him take the wheel. We have to give up the control and let God guide us through the rough patches. He will bring us home. He will lift us up to his standard.
Heavenly Father,
We so often feel like we have things perfectly under control. We forget that you are so much more able to take care of things than we are. Help us to humble ourselves to you. Lift us up to your likeness and bring us home.

Drought stalks Aminuis farmers
Despite the fact that most parts of Namibia have received goods rains and promising grazing, Aminuis constituency in the Omaheke region continues to feel the pinch of persistent drought.
With the prolonged drought in Aminuis, more than 400 livestock have died as farmers watch their animals helplessly succumb to famine.
Livestock farming is the main source of income in the constituency and there are auction pens at Corridor 13, Onderombapa, Aminuis, Leonardville, and Farm Monica.
Such persistent drought has severely affected livestock auctions, which are normally held on a rotational basis at the different places to cater for the needs of the farmers.
Constituency councillor Peter Kazongominja in an interview with New Era yesterday said that in the second week of December they received good showers.
"But to our disappointment, the rain has disappeared, only little showers come our way now. We are still waiting for rain, although we are not as bad as we were in December. The grass that had grown since December has since dried up due to sun heat. Mopane worms also attacked and destroyed trees, making the situation worse for livestock to graze," Kazongominja said.
He noted the farmers are still not happy, as they are hoping the rains will still come.
He said the livestock are still yet to recover from the drought, although the mortalities have minimised compared to last year's fatalities.
According to him, the farmers are still in need of animal fodder. He said the last consignment of animal fodder was last delivered in December.
"Whatever assistance comes our way; we will really appreciate it. Farmers are no longer in a position to buy fodder," he said.
Late last year, the Omaheke Regional Council distributed 58 x 50kg bags of fodder, 58 x 20kg boxes of nutrient blocks and 58 bales of grass, valued at N$38 918.
The beneficiaries each received three bales of grass, three boxes of nutrient blocks and three bags of fodder, as well as 20kg of maize meal and five tins of fish from the drought relief programme.
In terms of drought food relief, he noted they still receive food rations such as maize, cooking oil and tinned fish.
However, he bemoaned that the transport issue remains a challenge, as the food is delivered late to the beneficiaries.
He also fears that if food is kept too long in the warehouse, then they might get spoiled without benefiting the needy communities.
Hence, he appealed to the Omaheke Regional Council to improve the transport logistic chain for food to be delivered on time.

Music Jake Uitti — December 1, 2014 11:58 — 0 Comments
Bigass Boombox 2015
Seattle's Bigass Boombox festival is on its second year. The free, all-ages music celebration, slated for Jan. 2nd and 3rd at the Crocodile (primarily) and sponsored by Tom Douglas Restaurants, will feature dozens of musical groups, as well as a literary stage hosted by us, The Monarch Review, and Poetry Northwest. To kick things off, I wanted to reach out to some of the festival's main players: organizers Adam Prairie, Christina Ellis, Jared Cortese, Caleb Thompson and performer, Robb Benson, in order to get a sense of what they're thinking leading up to the show!
Jake Uitti: Adam, how did Boombox come about? What do you hope to be different this year from last, and what do you hope remains the same?
Adam Prairie: The idea for Big Ass Boombox sprang forth from the minds of Eirean Bradley and Arya Imig, some buddies of ours in Portland. The Hoot Hoots played the Portland incarnation of Boombox the second time they did it, and we just thought it was the coolest event. It left us thinking, how can we implement this here in Seattle? And from there we just went for it and found a bunch of like-minded individuals in Friends and Family (RIP), the Jesus Rehab, and Julia Massey and the FFD to co-organize with us.
This year we're excited that our third venue is at the 2312 Gallery, which will allow us to make all the music venues all ages. Last year was packed each night, so we're looking to keep that fun party atmosphere this year while retaining the awesome sense of community that we had last year. We truly committed to making this event all about connecting great bands with new fans. Oh, and we couldn't be happier to be sponsored this year by Tom Douglas Restaurants!!!
JU: Jared, you play in The Jesus Rehab and have helped organize BABB in Seattle for a couple years now – what is the importance of the festival to you and how does the idea of community factor in?
Jared Cortese: This festival is really important to me. Giving back to the city I love feels amazing, and I can't think of a more perfect way for me to do that then by helping with this event. BABB is a party that everyone is invited to, more like a family reunion where you meet family members you didn't even know you had. I think there are a lot of folks in Seattle that haven't realized they are living in one of the greatest music cities in the world, and we want to help connect them with this thriving community. BABB is all ages, completely free, and for the second year in row, sponsored entirely by local businesses. I think that it is a huge statement of how inclusive we want this be, and how passionate we are about this being the people's festival. It's good for the bands, its good for the fans. It's good for Belletown and it builds our community and helps keep it strong. Music is a lot more fun when everyone is having a good time, and in my mind that's what Big Ass Boom Box is all about.
JU: Caleb, what is your hope with the literary stage? What has it been like to work with Poetry Northwest on this side of the project?
Caleb Thompson: Lit folk can tend to be more solitary, maybe especially in the winter, so I like the idea of bringing together a bunch of different writers to share the stage and celebrate the work publicly. Get 'em out of the house! It's exciting to meet new writers, and rediscover the kinship that's always there but is easy to forget about. As for working with PNW, I'm always delighted to collaborate with them. The magazine is such an important part of the living literary history here, and I'm just glad to be a part of it. And it's especially an honor to host with Matt Kelsey, whom I admire quite a bit. It looks to be an exciting few days.
JU: Robb, this will be your second year playing BABB – what does the festival mean to you?
Robb Benson: To be a part of a collection of what I consider to be the most prominent up and coming underground acts, as well as some established acts, is super exciting. And the people who put together the festival are fantastic – for me, overall, it's about being a part of a community scene. To be able to play with my friends, who I also really respect, is unquantifiable.
JU: Christina, you're one of the main organizers of BABB, what would you like the festival to look like 10 years from now?
Christina Ellis: In 10 years, we honestly hope the festival is more or less the same size-wise. Unlike bigger festivals, there's really no pressure to get lost down the "make it bigger and better" rabbit hole because we want to make sure that this festival remains committed to connecting new bands with a new audience. However, if I had to dream a little bigger, I think it would be cool to make a summer edition of Boombox.

The majority of British mobile owners who also use ad blockers on their devices believe that online publishers should make money by providing paid content rather than showing ads.
The finding is part of a survey conducted amongst British mobile adblock users by Free Adblocker Browser.
According to the Association of Online Publishers, UK-based publishers stand to lose £2 million per year in advertising revenue due to ad blockers. Meanwhile, the usage of ad blockers continues to grow.
Free Adblocker Browser says that its downloads grew 40% in the UK in the last year. UK users were also among the most active countries, spending 40 minutes browsing on their mobile devices each day. Interestingly, usage of ad blockers on mobile devices is higher among male users than female ones.
The main reason why UK mobile device owners use ad blockers is to avoid seeing ads (62%) – no surprise there. However, just under a fifth of them also considered security aspects in their decision making. Indeed, 17.3% of respondents said that they used ad blockers to stave off viruses, malware or scams. Another 10.2% would prefer to keep their privacy protected.
In addition, the survey found that adblock walls may not be all that effective. 40.9% of respondents would leave a page and search for an information elsewhere instead of whitelisting a site temporarily (17.5%). Another 30.7% simply do not agree nor whitelist a site, compared to just 10.9% who agree and opt for whitelisting.
Meanwhile, the most disliked advertising types on mobile devices are pop-ups (44.5%), followed by non-skippable video ads (21.9%), banners (11.7%), auto-play video ads (8.9%) and flashing animated ads (4.6%).
The findings offer potentially interesting insights into the growing usage of mobile ad blockers. However, it's worth remembering that the survey was conducted by a company providing adblock software. Hence, the results may not be entirely unbiased.

Because we can't be more ready for the movie "IT," here is another take on the clown known as Pennywise, this time from an older brother who dressed his younger one up as the killer clown.
The photos have gone viral and deservedly so, the young man pictured in the set is spot-on in his depiction of King's classic monster.
Although his inspiration comes from the upcoming September 8 release of the film, we'd like to see his Tim Curry impersonation as well.
Once you scroll through eag2n's photo cache on Instagram you'll see that this brotherly love also includes Legos, superhero films, skateboarding, and artwork. The latter seems to be eag2n's professional calling with detailed illustrations of various superheroes, he's even won a few awards for his work.
While we think his drawings are amazing, we are most impressed with the transformation he did on his little brother.
And by the looks of "IT," his brother is too.

Express Solicitors are sorry to hear about the case of a man who fell through the roof of an industrial unit in Stockport and died as a result of his injuries. Another man also fell through the roof in a separate incident and remains in hospital in a serious condition.
The men are believed to have fallen 25ft through the same site whilst they were working to demolish two empty units next to the DIY store Wickes on the industrial estate.
The HSE have confirmed a joint investigation with the police. A spokesman told the M.E.N.: "We are carrying out a joint investigation with Greater Manchester Police into two separate incidents at the same site in Heaton Norris where two workers fell through the roof of a former retail unit."
Express Solicitors wants to remind those that work on roofs to remain safe.
It's important to remember that falls can occur:
- from the edges of roofs
- through gaps or holes in roofs
- through fragile roof materials and roof lights
In addition, many people have been seriously injured by material falling or thrown from roofs. Also, accidents don't just happen to those building roofs, but also to people maintaining, cleaning, demolishing and inspecting them. Any work on a roof is high risk since it involves work at height. High safety standards are essential however long or short term the work is. The nature of the precautions needed may vary from one job to another.
For more information about safety whilst working on a roof, please follow the link: http://www.hse.gov.uk/pubns/indg284.pdf

Better business deals are always possible for the small to medium-sized business owner just as long as his structural infrastructure is working good and proper and with very little interruption or disruption throughout the business calendar year. The prudent and responsible business owner has a habit of keeping in close contact with the electrical contracting services melbourne fl network. Because what if an electrical default should occur at an unexpected time during a fairly busy production cycle?
Depending on the business infrastructure, structurally or organically, the same would go for having close contact with the plumbing network. But on the whole, no business functions without electricity. Needless to say, concerns continue to be raised over how much all of this is costing the business. the old adage that a business owner needs to be spending money in order to make money no longer applies. Look at it this way.
If you were an honest to goodness tenant who always paid your rent and taxes on time what are you to do if, say for example, your landlord keeps increasing your rent every year, and usually there would be justifiable motivations, and your salary or business earnings remain stagnant. It is plain to see where that leaves you. Electrical contracting companies will have noticed such concerns too. Because at the end of the day, it will affect the day to day running of their businesses as well.
That being said, the way has now been cleared to provide small to medium sized business owners with new problem solving and innovative solutions which enable them to drive down the costs expended but without having to sacrifice volumes usually required for the day to day running of the business. Contact an electrician today and see how he can help you towards better business deals.
