Keep in mind that no one has time to read a novel, so write succinctly and include your interests! Best Dating Apps for Hooking Up. As far as determining whether or not your matches are here for the real thing, Murzello says a picture's worth a thousand words. Maybe the person is looking for a hot hookup. Are they half drunken photos? She's probably partying and not looking for something serious.
The time of day or night that you're typically chatting with a match can also be a telltale sign of what she's looking for. Is it really late at night? This is probably someone who's not looking for a relationship. Also, the conversation should have substance to it. If it's just, 'How was your weekend? Levine says to also keep this rule of thumb in mind when you're messaging matches. Also, meet up as soon as you feel comfortable. It's so much easier to understand what someone is like and what they're looking for when you're with them face to face.
The more potential matches you have, the more likely it is that you're going to find the right woman for you, right? According to James Anderson, dating expert at Beyond Ages , this way of thinking can actually end up backfiring when you're in the market for something more serious. With Coffee Meets Bagel things are very different.

Imbali Concession safaris, tours & holiday packages
A private concession in the heart of Kruger National Park
Imbali combines the game and wild spaces of Kruger National Park with the exclusivity of a private concession.
Situated in central Kruger National Park some 35-kilometres southeast of Orpen Gate, the 10,000-hectare Imbali Concession area is home to three luxury lodges and a host of fantastic game-viewing opportunities. There are no fences between the concession and Kruger, so all the wildlife (from leopards to elephants) roams freely, giving you the chance to see the world-famous park's inhabitants in the company of just a few game-drive vehicles. Big Five sightings are common in the concession, with lions being spotted often.
My favourite lodge in Imbali Concession is Hamilton's Tented Camp: the stylish rooms are incredibly romantic with Victorian-style bathtubs overlooking the river and I love the fact that you can spot game while you sit on your private deck.
More on Imbali holidays
There are no self-driving options in Imbali, which is made up mostly of open grasslands. However, the lodge's game vehicles are in constant communication with each other, so there's little chance that you will miss out on any good sightings. Unlike in Kruger National Park, the vehicles here are allowed to drive off-road, so if there's a lion kill a few metres away from the road, your driver will be able to get you in close.
Of the three lodges on the concession, Imbali Safari Lodge is the most family-friendly, with 12 modern-minimalist furnished chalets overlooking the Nwaswitsontso River, each with its own Jacuzzi or plunge pool. For a more traditional African experience, opt to stay at Hoyo Hoyo Safari Lodge, which has six rooms styled like Tsonga huts with cylindrical thatch-and-reed roofs and offering outdoor showers and private decks.
Hamilton's Tented Camp, the most elegant and romantic of the trio, harks back to turn-of-the-century colonial Africa. Six canvas tented rooms are furnished with dark wood and antique prints are set on stilts and connected by wooden walkways under jackalberry trees.

Frequently Asked Questions about Imbali
Whether you are in the Southern or East Africa you will generally be able to see the big five. The difference really comes in when considering antelope as they are based on your chosen location. go there.
This is all dependant on the countries that you will be visitng and due to the status of certain vaccinations changing at times, please consult our experts before getting vaccines. go there.
In some parts of Southern Africa it is safe to drink the tap water, however it is highly recommended to stick to bottled water (mostly supplied) during your trip as even drinkable African water is completely different in taste and… go there.

Also known as: continuous positive airway pressure titration sleep study.
CPAP, or continuous positive airway pressure, is a machine used in the treatment of sleep-related breathing disorders such as apnea and hypoxemia. A CPAP titration sleep study is a test that is used to calibrate the CPAP machine for the proper treatment of an individual's sleep-related breathing disorder.
The patient spends the night at a sleep center and falls asleep for the test. The patient is fitted with a CPAP machine, and sleep specialists try various settings during the test until the right airway pressure for the patient is found. This CPAP setting is then used for future treatments for the patient.
A patient needs to be diagnosed with a sleep disorder such as sleep apnea, hypoxemia or others prior to the CPAP titration sleep study occurring. The patient should come prepared for sleep and can bring everything they would need to prepare for a normal night of sleep to the study.
There are very few risk factors related to a CPAP titration sleep study. Virtually the only risk is that the study is unsuccessful at finding the right airway pressure needed for the patient.

Common California DUI Defenses
Sonoma County DUI attorney blog. Common California DUI defenses. Following an arrest on suspicion of driving under the influence (DUI), many people feel helpless. They believe that the police officers and the prosecutors have already made the decision that they are guilty and, therefore, they have no option but to plead guilty. While it is often correct that law enforcement and prosecutors automatically assume many arrestees are guilty, it is an incorrect belief that people arrested for DUI never have any other options.
While many attorneys may encourage people facing DUI charges to simply agree to a plea bargain, the DUI defense lawyers at Beck Law P.C. firmly believe that many people charged with DUI are innocent. We investigate the circumstances surrounding your arrest to show your innocence and work to build an aggressive DUI defense on your behalf. The following are a few of the common DUI defenses in the state of California.
Common California DUI Defenses
No 15 Minute Waiting Period
California law requires a law enforcement officer to observe a person suspected of DUI for at least 15 minutes prior to performing a breathalyzer test. A breath test measures the amount of alcohol in your breath, not your blood, and if a person belches, vomits, smokes, or does any other similar activity prior to the test, the results can be skewed. During the 15 minute observation period, an officer is supposed to actively watch a person to ensure none of these things happen so the results will be accurate. However, many police use this 15 minutes to wrongfully return to their cars or complete paperwork and do not adequately observe the suspect. A DUI attorney may use this as a defense to show your test was inaccurate.
Police did not follow Title 17 DUI regulations
Title 17 is a regulation in California that sets out the requirements for administering breath and/or blood tests in DUI cases. Equipment must be properly calibrated and the tests must be properly administered. Title 17 also mandates that a forensic laboratory have certain qualifications and follow certain procedures. If any law enforcement officer or laboratory analysts do not comply with Title 17 requirements, your California DUI lawyer can use that information to demonstrate your test results were flawed.
Field sobriety test results were flawed
Aside from blood or breath tests, prosecutors often have police officers testify regarding a suspect's failure of field sobriety tests (FSTs). However, many officers are not properly trained on administering FSTs and fail to give a suspect the correct instructions, thereby causing them to have negative results. If the officers fail to administer the test up to the correct standards, the result will be called into question. Furthermore, other factors such as location, weather, nerves, and more may affect a suspect's performance on FSTs. An experienced DUI attorney knows how to investigate your arrest to use any one of these factors in your defense.
These are, of course, only some examples of the common DUI defenses your attorney may use. If you have been arrested for or charged with DUI in Sonoma County, Mendocino County, Lake County California, do not hesitate to contact Beck Law P.C. for assistance as soon as possible.

Strategic Missile Troops launch of a Molniya 8K78 Rocket
Strategic Missile Troops was scheduled to launch a Molniya 8K78 rocket as part of the unknown mission. The launch window for the unknown mission was on Sat, Feb 11th, 1961, 7:43 PM EST from 1/5, Baikonur Cosmodrome, Kazakhstan. The status of the launch was Success with a 0% chance for favorable weather conditions. Don't miss this exciting rocket launch!
1/5, Baikonur Cosmodrome, Kazakhstan
Molniya 8K78
The Molniya was a modification of the well-known R-7 Semyorka rocket and had four stages. The 8K78 resulted from a crash program by the Korolev Bureau to develop a booster for launching planetary probes. A larger third stage was added along with a fourth stage (Blok L) that was designed to fire in-orbit to send the payload out of LEO. The basic R-7 core was also structurally strengthened and given more powerful engines. A rushed development produced multiple malfunctions of the upper stages, which led to its being replaced by the improved Molniya-M in 1964, but there were enough 8K78s left to continue flying them into 1967.Strategic Missile Troops

The following is an excerpt from Joint Communiqué of the 49th ASEAN Foreign Ministers' Meeting in Vientiane on 24 JULY 2016, which focuses on the South China Sea issues.
South China Sea
174. We remain seriously concerned over recent and ongoing developments and took note of the concerns expressed by some Ministers on the land reclamations and escalation of activities in the area, which have eroded trust and confidence, increased tensions and may undermine peace, security and stability in the region.
175. We reaffirmed the importance of maintaining and promoting peace, security, stability, safety and freedom of navigation in and over – flight above the South China Sea.
176. We further reaffirmed the need to enhance mutual trust and confidence, exercise self-restraint in the conduct of activities and avoid actions that may further complicate the situation, and pursue peaceful resolution of disputes in accordance with international law, including the 1982 United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS).
177. We emphasised the importance of non-militarisation and self-restraint in the conduct of all activities, including land reclamation that could further complicate the situation and escalate tensions in the South China Sea.
178. We underscored the importance of the full and effective implementation of the DOC in its entirety, and while noting the momentum and new phase of consultations, urged all parties to work expeditiously for the early adoption of an effective Code of Conduct (COC), including through increasing the frequency of ASEAN-China Senior Officials' Meetings and Joint Working Group Meetings on the Implementation of the DOC.
179. We highlighted the urgency to intensify efforts to achieve further substantive progress in the implementation of the DOC in its entirety as well as substantive negotiations for the early conclusion of the COC including the outline and timeline of the COC.
180. Pursuant to the full and effective implementation of the DOC in its entirety, and pending the early adoption of an effective COC, we stressed the importance of undertaking confidence building and preventive measures to enhance, among others, trust and confidence amongst parties.
181. We reiterated the need to establish the MFA-to-MFA hotline to manage maritime emergencies in the South China Sea. We looked forward to the adoption of a joint statement on the observance of the Code for Unplanned Encounters at Sea (CUES) in the South China Sea. Both are seen as deliverables for the ASEAN-China Commemorative Summit. In our view, these are practical measures that could reduce tensions, and the risks of accidents, misunderstandings and miscalculation.

Culture Trip stands with
Black Lives Matter
Since the late 1940s, Harry was known as the man who would visit the markets before dawn, leaning over the shoulders of customers as he eyed the best cuts of meat. Using only the freshest ingredients, Harry would prepare everything that morning, including hand-chopping the potatoes for fries and molding the beef patties – In-N-Out has maintained these standards even after his passing in 1976. With the idea of maintaining quality over mass production and money-saving shortcuts combined with Harry's idea of work culture and the way employees should be treated, In-N-Out was already a recipe for success since the day it first opened its doors.
One of the company's well-known mottos, 'our customer is everything,' also contributes to In-N-Out's wild success, with customers being able to order pretty much anything they want. Want four patties and four slices of cheese? You got it (that's called a 'four-by-four'). Want extra crispy fries with cheese on top? No problem. The modification of the simple menu became so popular that In-N-Out developed a secret menu based on its regular customers, with things like 'animal style,' 'protein style' (no bread), and the 'Neapolitan' shake – chocolate, vanilla, and strawberry mixed into one. All of this not only developed a 'personal relationship' with In-N-Out amongst its customers but also created a buzz in the food culture (thanks to the growing trend of food photography and social media).
In-N-Out has also been praised for its employee wages, which are said to be well over those of its competitors – some managers earn $100,000 a year, plus bonuses and company benefits, with the lowest turnover rate in the industry (the average manager stays for 14 years, but some have stayed for 30-40 years). Training is rigorous, and managers are held to high standards – something customers have felt in the company's culture (think extra kind employees). And unlike other chains, In-N-Out has stayed within the family, with strict guidelines on growth (i.e., stores cannot be outside 500 miles from their produce and meat supplier) in order to maintain consistency and quality across every location.
In-N-Out has stuck to what it's good at it, and this could be one of its biggest successes – other fast food chains are always changing the menu, with food quality ranging from store to store. At In-N-Out, the menu never changes, so customers can count on getting the same great food, every time – and at every location. Plus, with prices that are reminiscent of past decades – $2.45 for a cheeseburger and $1.65 for fries – this spot keeps people coming back. But, even without its admirable values, genius marketing – the red and white theme, iconic sign, and Bible verses printed on everything from cups to placemats – and dedication to quality, In-N-Out puts out a solid burger, one that even burger snobs would tip their hats to.
In the words of Harry Snyder, 'keep it real simple, do one thing and do it the best you can.'

Now that "Jack White" is officially Jack White and the man known as John Gillis is lost forever, we have to accept him on certain terms. He's now the demanding rock star who is intent on bringing his old ways, Southern gentleman demeanor, and "aw, shucks" mannerisms to the toppermost regions of the earth. He'll do interviews, granted you don't ask him about this, that, and the other (management will gladly provide you with a list of guidelines—don't even think about mentioning Led Zeppelin). Also, if you play his record before it's released, he'll call you on it—literally. He also knows how to kick a guy's ass if it comes to that.
So maybe he is removed from reality and maybe Icky Thump should be the record where he jumps too far and proceeds to crawl up somewhere deeper and darker, possibly head-first. But Icky Thump is not that record. Get Behind Me Satan hinted that all was not well and proved that Mr. White could plod along just as aimlessly as the next guy. But Icky Thump is pretty much a non-stop barrage of guitar and intensity that has all the songs, spark, and high-wattage primal blues and rock 'n' roll of any album they've done before. The guitar solos! You've never heard so many before. But are they wanking, peacock-strutting guitar solos? No, these are white hot, needling guitar attacks whose antecedents are hinted at in early Jeff Beck-era Yardbirds material and maybe in the wildman antics of Ted Nugent, if Nugent had a shirt on and didn't wag his tongue around so much when he played.
Although there are much more developed songs on the album than "Rag and Bone"—it's this song that really sums it all up. Here, Jack and Meg talk to each other about finding a mansion full of junk and how they'll "give it a home." Which really sums up their whole m.o.—take the discarded trash of yore (simple blues rhythms, call and response techniques, an old-fashioned electric guitar and a drum kit) and turn it into something completely amazing. That this is set to a beat that has all the tension and release of ZZ Top's greasy blues classic "La Grange"—well, hallelujah.
For every moment that pushes his vocals a little too out front or relies too heavily on the lyrical push to drive the song (never their strong point), there is redemption in tracks like "Little Cream Soda" (a thundering guitar jam where Jack tosses off the phrase "oh well" with such insouciance that speaks more about his state of mind than either of the Irish-themed "back to my roots" songs that pop up here.
Then there is the matter of "Conquest"—a cover of a 50s hit for Patti Page, which is so close to ridiculous in its bullfighter drama that it comes close to parody—but then Meg kicks in and Jack White brings out the riff and you realize this is no joke and that this track is going to freak people out when they play it live. The musical finale between White and the Mariachi trumpeter is like a truly insane version of "Flight of the Bumblebee." Icky Thump is another step in Jack and Meg White's ascension out of reality and into rock 'n' roll dreamland, but as long as the records are this good, long may they dream.

Being a fan of f(x),i noticed some changes in f(x)'s members from their first single Lachata to their latest song Chu.
Debuted with Lachata a few months ago,f(x) showed us some cool sides despite their young age.As you can see in the photo above,their image for Lachata is a bit gloomy and you can hardly see them smilling in the photo.However,everything changed after the release of Chu,all members are showing us their cute side,i think this is the image that suits them more.
I have made some analysis on the transformations of each member,let us start with Victoria,the leader.
Victoriaf(x)'s chinese leader Victoria is well known for her flexible body and incredible acrobatic skills.To be honest,not much changes can be seen in Victoria as you can see in the photo above,her image is more or less the same.In terms of hairstyle,the hairstyle she is having now is the same as the Lachata' hairstyle,but one thing i noticed is she is now wearing the "Kara Mister's pant" while performing Chu,her flexibility is perfectly shown in that outfit especially when she does the flipping.
SulliSulli is growing on me these days.I have to admit that she is a cute little talented girl,her image in Chu's MV suits her very much.She looks really pretty with the two pony tails,do you agree with me?
AmberAlready received much attention when f(x) first debuted thanks to her boyish image.She really has the boyish charm to make fangirls scream.In f(x) Chu's MV,her face can be seen clearly compared with Lachata's MV,she is quite good looking and i hope that she will surprise us with long hairstyle in the near future!
LunaLuna,my favourite f(x)'s member,always looks so good in MV but disappoints me when she is performing LIVE.It can't be denied that she looks really pretty in both Lachata and Chu's MV but what happened to her when she is performing LIVE.You can see that she will the one to wear weird accessories during LIVE performance and her pants during Lachata simply does not suit her,i wonder when can i see a perfect Luna performing LIVE?
KrystalKrystal,a.k.a SNSD Jessica's sister,she is the prettiest among 5 girls,just my opinion.But what happened to her in Chu MV?Her hairstyle is really not something "viewable",don't you agree with me,just compare the snapshots above,she looks absolutely georgeous in Lachata's MV but her beauty is ruined by her weird hairstyle in Chu.
As a conclusion,i like Sulli's changes in the new single,she looks more energetic and cute with the new image given!
Whose changes do you like the most?

The simple act of slowing dowMake Halloween Safe Again!n on neighborhood roads can not only make Halloween more enjoyable for everyone, but it can save lives.
Expecting Trick-or-Treaters at Your House?
• Be sure walking areas and stairs are well lit and free of obstacles that could result in falls.
• Keep candle-lit Jack-O-Lanterns and luminaries away from doorsteps, walkways, landings, and curtains.
• Place them on sturdy tables, keep them out of the reach of pets and small children, and never leave them unattended.
• Invite your elderly parents or neighbors over to hand out candy, most seniors love the activity and excitement of the evening and will often reminisce about their childhood memories of Halloween.
Have Children Going Out for Trick-or-Treat?
• Teach children how to call 9-1-1 if they have an emergency or become lost.
• Have a set time for your kids to return home. Make sure they know how important it is for them to be home on time or to call immediately if something happens and they are going to be delayed.
• A good meal prior to trick-or-treating helps discourage youngsters from filling up on treats that have not been inspected by a parent or guardian.
• Avoid trick-or-treating alone. Walk in groups or with a trusted adult.
• Instruct your child to never go into the home of a stranger or get into their car.
• Let your children know they can't assume the right of way. Motorists may have trouble seeing Trick-or-Treaters. Just because one car stops, doesn't mean others will.
• Teach children to make eye contact with drivers before crossing in front of them.
• Use reflective tape on costumes and bags so car drivers can see you better.
• Take a flashlight to help you see, and others see you.
• Always walk and don't run from house to house.
• Always use sidewalks when available, or walk on the far edge of the road facing traffic to stay safe.
• Consider wearing makeup and hats rather than masks that can obscure your vision.
• Swords, knives and similar costume accessories should be short, soft and flexible.
• Do not use decorative contact lenses without an eye examination and a prescription from an eye care professional. Obtaining decorative contact lenses without a prescription is both dangerous and illegal.
Halloween Candy Safety Reminders
• Examine all treats for choking hazards and tampering before eating.
• Eat only factory-wrapped treats and never eat homemade treats made by strangers.
• Consider a rationed approach of treats for children in the days following Halloween.

text: Arid Southwest is a fragrance as scintillatingly spicy as it is monumentally still. Precious dried wood radiates a distilled heat, reflecting the dry solar power that has transformed it. Black peppercorn is a shimmering spice, definitively savory and slightly bitter. Fennel seeds recall a floral sweetness, tiny seedling ghosts of flowers that once bloomed in this desert. Vetiver illuminates the occasional sprouts of grass, or cactus or shrub, the piquancy of this green illustrating the hearty, resilient humor of all plants that bloom in this setting. Chiseled valleys of red clay harbor hidden desert flowers. Embedded in kilned rock these blossoms, attached to spike or branch, offer surprising pops of contrasting color and unexpected scents amidst the red. An ardent wind is the usher of both brittle seeds and echoing native voices. A hot, magnificent fragrance, Southwest curates an atmosphere to bask in. In candle form, we can safely soak up the silent, unmitigated power of the desert sun.

When Andrew Lansley became health secretary he gave a series of presentations which all began by stressing how the new government would increase patients' control by giving them more choice and information.
We were to have "an information revolution" and a consultation was launched.
While we wait for the result of that consultation we have time to contemplate why the NHS has made such slow progress on this front.
The key reason is the lack of an effective champion within government which has allowed concerns over patient confidentiality to unbalance the debate. Witness, for example, the reaction to last week's decision to publish practice level prescribing data. This could and should change with the appointment - not yet confirmed - of Dr Foster founder Tim Kelsey as the government's transparency tsar.
Mr Kelsey's starting point is that the citizen and the state have linked responsibilities. The citizen to share their personal data and the state to protect and use it to save lives and improve services.
His views will prove controversial, but HSJ is sure that - to use words the tsar-in-waiting has not - risks to patient confidentiality posed by much greater sharing and use of anonymised data are far outweighed by the benefits it could bring to the NHS and its patients.

Outside and Inside Mummies by Sandra Markle
This book is my latest read from the Texas Bluebonnet Nomination list. I have always loved informational books like this, so it was a fun read. Even more fun for me was that the first 1/3 or so dealt with radiology of mummies. Being a librarian in a hospital imaging department, I am inundated with this stuff on a daily basis, and, in fact, one of the faculty members I help out on a regular basis is researching paleo-radiology. I recently was able to borrow a book for him of original x-rays of mummies from the 1850s! My first thought as I was reading this book was that I should buy a copy for Dr. M for Christmas. I actually may buy a copy for my library, even though it would really be a novelty item.
The other 2/3 of the book dealt with other biological investigations of mummies, such as looking at samples under the microscope of parasites found in the intestines. Fascinating!

An amazing Community Day atmosphere Friday night at Ray & Sue Smith Stadium nearly was perfect for the Hope College football team.
Millikin University (Illinois) spoiled the festivities, getting two sacks on the Flying Dutchmen's final drive to preserve a 25-21 victory in the 2018 season opener in front of a crowd of 3,010. It was the first Friday night opener for the Flying Dutchmen.
"What an atmosphere. Everything we wanted to accomplish out of a Friday night game happened. I want to say thank you to the community and our students. That was a neat atmosphere," head coach Peter Stuursma said. "I also owe them an apology because we didn't find a way to close it at the end. That one's going to sting because we let one slip away. We're not far off. That's a good football team over there. That team went 7-3 last year and returned nine starters.
"I know they will stick by us. That's what Hope does. That's what this community does."

The Flying Dutchmen nearly thrilled their loyal fans after forcing a Millikin punt with 3 minutes, 19 seconds remaining in the fourth quarter and taking possession near midfield.
Three plays later, Hope pushed ahead to the Millkin 24-yard line with plenty of time remaining on the clock.
Linebackers Matthew Brown and Nika Averitte sacked quarterback Mason Opple of Hudsonville, Michigan (Hudsonville HS) on consecutive plays for a combined loss of 15 yards. A desperation fourth-down heave from Opple fell incomplete in the end zone and allowed Millikin to run out the final 59 seconds.
Earlier in the game, two other potential scoring drives were thwarted. A fumble at the Millikin 14-yard line in the fourth quarter prevented Hope from taking a two-score lead. A third-quarter holding penalty called back a touchdown run by freshman running back Kenyea Houston of Chicago, Illinois (George Westinghouse).
Millikin marched 86 yards in 10 plays after the fumble to take its first lead of the game on a 17-yard touchdown catch by receiver Greg Perry from quarterback Nicco Stepina.
Stepina completed 19-of-38 passes for 261 yards and touchdowns. Millikin outgained Hpe 422-355 despite losing the time of possession battle by 10 ½ minutes.
Houston rushed for 102 yards on 19 carries in his Flying Dutchmen debut.
Opple passed for 139 yards and two scores while also rushing for 62 yards and one touchdown. He connected on second-quarter scoring strikes of 21 yards to tight end Jake Kozlowski of Lake Geneva, Wisconsin (Badger) and 25 yards to receiver Emari Hardy of Muskegon, Michigan (Mona Shores).
Opple also scored on a 2-yard run during the first quarter.
Defensive back Luke Beckhusen of Coldwater, Michigan (Caledonia) led Hope's defense with a career-high 11 tackles.
Linebacker Mason Dekker of Holland, Michigan (West Ottawa) recorded 10 tackles, including one sack.

In early September of last year, Amanda Knox, an American college student from the University of Washington, arrived in Perugia, Italy, and joined the ranks of the 40,000 students, Italian and foreign, who flock there annually. This is a mixed blessing for the majestic town of 160,000, which has endured a number of invasions through the ages: first, the Etruscans, who built their elaborate tombs there, followed by the Romans, Goths, and, much later, Napoleon. But nothing has ever hit Perugia quite like Amanda—or, more accurately, the unspeakable crimes for which she was arrested: inciting two men to commit a sexual assault so brutal that it left her British housemate dead—and, in the wake of this murder, the media and judicial circuses that now engulf her.
When she arrived from Seattle, Amanda was just 20 years old and newly beautiful. Her heightened appeal had evidently come as a welcome surprise, a piece of luck she didn't know quite how to handle. "Very short, kind of mousy brown hair" is how her high-school drama teacher recalls her. "Let's lay it out: she wasn't a dazzler."
But by November, when she achieved international notoriety, she was perceived as irresistible—"Luciferina with the face of an angel," as an Italian newspaper described her. Even before that—in the relatively anonymous first weeks of her Italian sojourn—she had been attracting attention from the locals. Her light, wide-spaced eyes are set in a finely boned face framed by sandy hair. Her firm, athletic body had grown slimmer and more seductive over the summer. Evenings, wearing a white miniskirt, Amanda strolled with boyfriends along the Corso Vannucci, a wide avenue of shops, cafés, and halls dedicated to the bankers and merchants who had made Perugia a Renaissance power. At the mouth of the avenue is an elaborate three-tiered fountain carved in white and pink stone.
Twice a week she worked at Le Chic, a dark, dank local bar, where, her exasperated Congolese boss, Diya Patrick Lumumba, recalls, "she spent most of her time chatting up the guys and flirting."
Upon her arrival in town, Amanda had settled into a house on Via Pergola already occupied by three other women, also in their 20s. Two were Italian. The third, Meredith Kercher, was London-born, a reserved but popular University of Leeds student who hoped to become a teacher. In her work habits, Meredith was diligent and methodical. "Every night she came home like a good little girl and studied," Amanda would later say.

So sorry young man!! Just wanted to share my excitement. I'll bet your mama helped you write that comment.
Nice comeback. Next you'll be celebrating 10 day contracts.
698, are you serious? People are excited about it. How many guys have done what Creeky is doing, and exceeding expectations from haters such as yourself. Of coarse people are celebrating a 10day contract fool! It's an amazing achievement.

Good effort Creek.
Congratulations to Mitch, pity the sixers stuffed it up so badly we'll probably never ever see him suiting up for Adelaide again.

Wrongly Convicted Man Free After 21 Years
As children, we've all gotten into trouble for something we didn't do. We may have even been punished. No punishment received as a child can compare to being imprisoned as an adult for an uncommitted crime..... Especially one that lands you in jail for 21 years!
According to a Montgomery news station, Alton Dandridge was released from Kilby Correctional Facility Thursday after being incarcerated for nearly 21 years. Dandridge was convicted of murdering Robert Manning, Sr. in 1996. He'd been sentenced to life without the possibility of parole. However, a reexamination of a fingerprint found at the scene, the only evidence tying Dandridge to the crime, found that while close, it wasn't a match.

I ran into this little blurb on the Multiwinia website that spoke of the story behind Multiwinia:
"Long ago a computer scientist called Dr Sepulveda created a beautiful digital world existing entirely within a computer network of his own invention.
This world was called Darwinia and it was inhabited by a peaceful, law-abiding digital life-form called the Darwinians.
As the years wore on the Darwinians became ever more aggressive. They divided into factions, squabbling over Darwinia's limited natural resources.
Tribes began to roam the fractal voids hell bent on each other's destruction, drunk on power and unswerving in the pursuit of world supremacy.
Far and wide, they became known as the Multiwinians…."
It mentions nothing about the Virus...
but my thought of the moment is this: Wouldn't Dr. Sepulveda step in and use his God-like influence over the Multiwinians to stop them fighting? Would he feel compelled to work behind the scenes and stop the aggression of the multiwinians (as "God"), or would he just despair in the fact that his "children" have finally discovered war and are fighting one another?
Of course, Sepulveda help them if the Darwinians destroy some of the soul-sustaining structures that keeps them recycling in the world...
I've heard of no SP component to Multiwinia, but I wonder if that issue will be resolved in the manual?

How do I troubleshoot this?

The Most Important Basic Arabic Sentences
We've previously presented to you the most common basic Arabic words (link here), but why not kick it up a notch and get the hang of a few commonly used Arabic phrases? By this point you should feel more confident when approaching the language. See? It wasn't as hard as you might've thought! With the right guidance you can pass the mental barrier of learning a new language.
What's up in Arabic – Ma alakhbaar – ما الأخبار
In a not so formal setting, you might want to say "what's up?".
Nice to meet you in Arabic – Surirtu bi liqaa'ik – سررت بلقائك
Manners are important to Arabs, so this will come in handy when meeting someone new.
Have a good day in Arabic – Atamna lak yawman jayidan – أتمنى لك يوماً جيداً
A quick, relatively formal but friendly greeting.
What are you doing in Arabic – Maathaa taf'al – ماذا تفعل
You might want to ask your Arab friend what is he doing that very moment. That's the way to go!
Where are you going in Arabic – Ilaa ayna tathhab – إلى أين تذهب
If you walk on the streets of an Arab city, you might hear a friendly "Where are you going?" from a taxi driver willing to give you a ride. Now you will be able to recognize the question!
Where are you in Arabic – Ayna anta – أين أنت
Or maybe you would want to know where your Arab friend is right that moment. Try using this next time!
I love you in Arabic – Anaa 'uhibuk – أنا أحبك
Surprise your loved ones by expressing your feelings in a new language for the surprise factor.
I love you so much in Arabic – Anaa 'uhibuk jiddan – أنا أحبك جداً
Maybe you'd want to go extra with your "I love you"? There you go!
I hate you in Arabic – Anaa akrahuk – أنا أكرهك
Well, we don't really promote negativity, but for the sake of curiosity, maybe you would want to know the reverse of "I love you".
See you soon in Arabic – Araak qreeban – أراك قريباً
A not so formal, friendly goodbye.
See you later in Arabic – Araak laahiqan – أراك لاحقاً
This is another variation of "See you soon". Both work in the same kind of setting.

Remember when we said that Arabs are very fond of their manners? You can try and get on their good side.
No problem in Arabic – Laa mushkilah – لا مشكلة
So, not only they expect you to have manners, but they are also mannered themselves. You might hear this often if they believe they might have offended you. This is a good way to assure them that everything is alright.

Meeting someone new for the first time, you might want to ask them their name.

Do you speak Arabic – Hal tatakalam al arabiyah – هل تتكلم العربية
You might get this question a lot from native Arabs.
I don't understand in Arabic – Anaa laa afham – أنا لا أفهم
This could be an answer to the above question.
I don't know in Arabic – Laa a'rif – لا أعرف
Or you could answer with a simple "I don't know".

This baby was not pleased with his parents when they introduced something new at mealtime.
The little guy opened his mouth to take in the spoon and then completely freaked out when he tasted the egg that was on it. He put up a bit of a fight before accepting the next bite, but then immediately regretted his decision.
You can watch his whole hilarious reaction in the video above.

Who are you? Did you ever stop to think about that? Really, who are you?
Years ago, while I was still living in New York, we were experiencing a transition in leadership at my former parish. I was concerned about the stability of my employment. I worried that my new pastor might not take me seriously because I was still quite young and well aware that not every pastor sees a need for a full-time music director. When I shared these concerns with my father, who told me that none of these factors were things I should allow to worry me. He said:
"Your work speaks for itself. Your new boss will see that."
It took a while for me to grasp what he meant. Through time, I began to see that it didn't matter who I knew, what I studied or even how I presented myself. I discovered that my sense of success was directly correlated to the level in which my heart was fully engaged. Listening to God's voice, and remaining true to my identity as a child of God was the "work" that would continue speak for itself.
This year, the Transfiguration of the Lord (August 6) happens to coincide with a Sunday, and because of this feast's significance, the celebration takes precedence over the 18th Sunday in Ordinary Time. In the readings for this feast, we'll experience Christ's transfiguration from the Gospel of Matthew. The passage might familiar to you- Christ goes up to a mountain with some disciples. He turns dazzling white before them, Old-Testament prophets appear, and a voice from heaven speaks. At the conclusion of the scene, it is indicated that the accompanying disciples do not immediately share with others what they have witnessed.
Earlier in the year, we heard the exact same passage on the Second Sunday of Lent. The account of Christ's transfiguration is repeated from the perspectives Mark and Luke's gospels in other years, but Matthew's account has always been the most difficult for me. In Luke, we hear that the disciples simply decide to remain quiet. In Mark, the disciples are instructed by Christ to keep silent until he rises from dead—a concept which is barely grasped by the three. In Matthew's gospel, Jesus firmly instructs the disciples to remain silent until the resurrection, and there is no further discussion.
But why? If you just witnessed that your teacher was truly a person of divine influence, wouldn't you want to share it with everyone?
Disciples were instructed to refrain from sharing what they had witnessed until the resurrection so that Christ's mission could be truly embraced. Prior to the resurrection, no testimony of any supernatural experience would reveal the fullness God's love in Christ. While it was important for the disciples to see their teacher in light of Old Testament prophets, it was important for others to form their own opinions. Peter, James and John were asked to stay silent so that Christ's work- the work of divine, unconditional love- could speak for itself.
As baptized believers, every one of us is called to reveal the presence of Christ to others. The mission of the Church is not restricted to the handful of Christians who are employed in full-time active ministry. All of us are called to continue Christ's work on earth by loving the one God who made us in divine image. Each one of us is called according to our unique set of strengths to reveal God's love to other people.
In the week ahead, I encourage you to consider how God has called you to reveal his presence to others. Who has God called you to be? It is so easy, sometimes, to lose our own sense of identity in our relationships, as spouses, parents or caretakers. Careers and ambitions can also distract us from the voice of God who speaks in our hearts.
Know that, first and foremost, you are deeply beloved child of God, created in divine image. Although jobs and families are important priorities, your first line of "work" is to continue the work of Christ on earth. How do you reveal your Christian faith to others? Does your Christian work truly speak for itself?

Spin up "Mortal," the lead single off Baby Rose's 2019 debut album, and it's the voice that gets you first. Husky, earthy, evocative, and soulful right down to its timber, her vocals ring out of blind, crippling desire against a spare and swooning R&B backbeat. In lines like "I pick the pieces up then come back running every time / You make it easy" there's resignation and vulnerability, but more so resilience as it confronts emotions equally raw and blistering.
Such is the heart-wringing impact of the entire LP, To Myself. Written in the aftermath of a breakup, the record sees Baby Rose wear her heartbreak on her sleeve, channeling anguish, anger, and loss into 10 tender and stirring slow burns. This is a songwriter who knows her way around a song, after all. Rose has been writing and performing since she was 12-years-old and since relocating from Washington DC to Atlanta, has seriously come into her own. Her debut record marked her arrival—drawing critical attention and fannish love—as did notable collaborations with J.Cole, Childish Major, and Big K.R.I.T, among others. And her live shows? They're perfect showcases for Rose's resonant voice and energy, entrancing and moving in measures.
At this point, with a trove of 2020 tour dates already assembled, Rose's momentum isn't slowing down. But before she heads out onstage, she's lining up her next single, "Ragrets," a bold and cathartic breakup number. And here, just for you, we have the exclusive premiere of its video, which puts Rose and her rich vocal performance at the center. Treat yourself below.
We're ready for Baby Rose's Big Break and as it turns out, so is she. Below, we got talking with the singer-songwriter about finding her voice, taking the stage, and sending her music to the moon.
Hello Baby Rose! How psyched are you for your first 2020 tour dates?
I'm super excited for my first headlining tour. It's surreal, honestly. But I can't wait to connect with my fans on a deeper level than I ever have musically and also turn tf up.
What do you love most about performing for an audience? And what do you hope the audience takes away from a Baby Rose show?
I love that I'm able to perform and sing my life's experiences out on the stage and see an audience of all walks of life sing along with me. I hope they feel full and have a great ass time.
Props on To Myself—it's such an intimate and emotionally devastating listen. What was in your headspace while writing and recording the album?
I was in a fragile state of mind, going through a breakup and repurposing my life for what I feared the most at the time: being alone. I'm on a journey of self-discovery by the way and I'm taking the long way, was the theme of this album.
What did you learn about yourself during the making of the record?
I didn't die, lol, so I can survive a heartbreak and walk away with a story to tell.
What's the experience of performing these intensely personal songs live on stage? Did performing them live uncover new things about these songs?
When I perform them, it's like a diary. So when I perform these personal entries in my life, I feel vulnerable more so than I ever have, but I also feel I'm in a safe space with people who feel or have felt the same way. I feel like I'm being of service, singing these songs live that have helped me understand who I am a little better and are helping others too.
\*\*We absolutely love your rich and distinct voice. What were some artists that first captured your imagination and made you think, "I want to do this professionally too"?\*\*
Some of the artists who gave me permission without knowing to think I had a shot with my unique voice and personal songwriting are Nina Simone, Janis Joplin, Rihanna, Amy Winehouse, Gladys Knight, Sia, Adele, Stevie Wonder, and Carole King.
You've also worked with a host of artists from J. Cole to Matt Martians. How were these collaborations instructive to you as a musician?
Working on the Dreamville album, Revenge of the Dreamers III, taught me to trust my first instinct and not to dim my light by any means, and Matt Martians inspired me to become more self-sufficient and put a setup in my room, and learn how to engineer and produce music on my own. I'll forever be indebted because all of the collabs have made me better.
Do you remember the first song you ever wrote? How did it come about?
One of the first songs I ever wrote was called "Bonnie and Clyde." I wrote it when I was 14 at the piano in my foyer. I based it off of my mom's relationship with my dad, and my songs then off that or off of other stories of women and girls around me.
Why is songwriting important to you?
It's important to have something to say. I'm no saint, but I'm not all bad and I wrote about who I am. And every time I step on stage, I'm confident in that much—that this is who I am.
How has Atlanta's music scene inspired you, your craft, or your career?
Atlanta is a mecca of black art. Its scene influences the world and pop culture, and I am glad to have called it home for almost a decade. I know so many incredible artists of all mediums who are my dear friends. I support my peers and we have supported one another for years. Support meaning, opening the studio doors to create at all hours of the night, creating showcases, parties and art galleries to get each other out there, building our own table. There's soul and camaraderie in Atlanta like nowhere else in the world.
What's a new year's resolution of yours that you hope to keep?
I hope to always let experiences like tours and festivals be new, and not lose that sense of awe in the menial tasks leading up to it. It's hard when you're in it sometimes because there can be a lot of distractions, but in those moments I want to count my blessings and look at the big picture. I want to stay balanced all 2020.
What comes to mind when you hear "Big Break"?
I think of my life changing in a way in which I can reach millions of people with my art that I have never dreamed of. I'm talking around the world my music is heard, all the way up to the moon. #1, lol. I think of widespread recognition, success, and the ability to call this my living and do it all over again if I choose.

It is a little hard and takes quite a few swipes across your lips to get the product to stay. But! I love the smell and the way my lips feel afterwards!
Love the orange lip balm. Would recommend it for anyone with chapped lips, clears them up within in a day
orange organic lip balm
My family uses chapstick so often that we carry it in our purses, cars, and toiletry bags. I believe I will be buying more to pass out to them. I love that this is organic, no harmful products used in making it. It also smells so refreshing! Great product!

Is your Resume all Fluff and no Flavor?
Professional resume writers are not the only ones being bombarded with resumes from job seekers who are having no luck with their job search. Recruiters are too. That is to be expected since we are experiencing challenging economic times and a competitive job market.
The 2008 increase in online job searches is just one indication of how many resumes recruiters are wading through. CareerBuilder.com alone saw a 68% increase in online job search visitors in 2008. Yahoo Hot Jobs had a 250% increase in job seeker traffic.
This online job search activity leads to recruiters who are flooded with resumes. Too many of those resumes contain more fluff than flavor and really do not stand a chance. When you have 20-30 seconds to impress a recruiter or hiring manager as they complete a power scan of your resume, fluff won't help you make it to the "keep" pile.
Here are 5 key tips to ensure that the top 30% of your resume packs a lot of punch, offering less fluff and more flavor: (check out the sample resumes illustrating the tips)
1. Limit name, address and other contact details to two lines maximum. That is all you need. This may be harder with college resumes with a temporary and permanent address or some addresses in other countries, but two lines can usually do it.
2. Audit your resume objective for relevance and focus. Get to the point quickly!
3. Try a powerful summary of qualifications. One trick to writing a powerful summary of qualifications is to write it last.
4. Consider a resume header.
5. Create a professional highlights section where you can list all your significant career accomplishments. The key is to make sure there is nothing in that top 30% of your resumethat puts the recruiter off.
Your goal should be to help the recruiter get to the other 70% of your resume where you share relevant skills, education and talk about outstanding outcomes.
Whether you are a HBCU student or employee, the professional staff in the career center on campus or even in the HR office can assist you to create a resume that will leave a good impression with recruiters.

The box is really cool. I like what you did behind Shadow, it looks different and nice. I do think the logo should be centered. Otherwise, great box.

I'm pretty surprise that is it in the HoF. Not mean it's bad...

This just came up on random:
Looks very similar, yet no faves??
[ Reply ]
Calm down. It was just an observation.
[ Reply ]
#35, I argee as well but congratulations on your boxart.
#30, just because there no back that dons't mean it can't be in the HOF (EG Mario boxart dons't have a back and it in the HOF).
[ Reply ]
I'm not saying it shouldn't be in there. I was just pointing out an unfair situation. I have one box in there too; no back, took only 30 minutes to do. But it's there :)
[ Reply ]
Dude, It's not his fault that the box went into the hall of fame! It up to the users to fave it. God, are we just going to have a flame war every time a boxart get into the hall? Because it's really getting on my nerves that people are so ignorant about the hall.
Sorry, i'm just making a point.
[ Reply ]
Congratulations :)
[ Reply ]
no offense but this i feel like this is a fluke :\
[ Reply ]
wow, seriously, HoF? no.
good box, not a great box.
[ Reply ]
#51, Ty Vengeance.
People don't get the aspect of the hall of fame.
people +Fav a box, and if the box is liked, it gets into hof.
If you can't stand that, don't comment.
Hof is all about styles and tastes, and
if this box isn't your taste[trev,WG1,Shady etc.] doesn't mean it doesn't deserve to be here..right?
Let a newcomer have it's credit for once.
i've been ignored and underrated for long enough.
[ Reply ]
Ib found it on web. It looks really similar... link
[ Reply ]
#52, thats not my point. what i'm saying is the HoF should be reserved for the best of the best, and this just doesnt fall into that category.
i mean seriously, look at the list of people who faved this. most of them wouldnt know a good boxart if it cock-slapped them square in the face.
once again however, not saying this is bad, but its really not that great either.
Its well done, but it shows little to no originality.
you kinda need both of those things to have a truely great boxart:
quality and originality.

I think this needs it's own thread. I might just wait for it come out on paper-back.
[ Reply ]
hmmm...something like this happened to my first box..., it just seems that ppl keep on putting the HoF on the pedestal or something, whatever. Just relax, ppl liked this and they faved it, so it got HoF...simple as that. And no whining is gonna change that fact now. Seriously ayron, congrats. I think it's about damn time ;)
[ Reply ]
#57, ok. i agree, this is not top-notch.
but imo, i've made a couple of boxes who were, even in my earlier days[ Pop,GT etc.]
Just bear in mind, i didn't ask for this.
i tried to get in, got in on a weurd way, and now everyone is whining.
is that really a must?, do you guys HAVE to throw me down like a small pebble in order to make me feel bad, just because i'm not as good as you?
Not only Mad spike,Dms and LK[etc] deserve the Hof...[ no offense. ]

CHICAGO – Had you told a person 50 years ago that someday we would be able to personally record television and broadcast it to the whole world, they might have laughed and said maybe on the futuristic cartoon "The Jetsons." But the future is now, and it lives in "Presenting Princess Shaw."
