It's curious to see how cultures change. In more primitive times, alcohol was an integral part of society, particularly in the rituals and forms of worship. More recently, some societies have become more puritan and, even though drinking wine is a part of the Christian religious ceremony, alcohol consumption is considered a sin. Indeed, at its peak, the Temperance Movement was able to force the introduction of Prohibition. Why has alcohol earned this level of disapproval?
In the short term, the answer lies in the first effects when you drink. As soon as the alcohol is absorbed into your bloodstream, it affects the way your brain works. There's a mild euphoria and the normal inhibitions are weakened. Memory and the ability to concentration are reduced. Physical coordination slowly disappears as the heart rate increases.
Alcohol causes blood vessels to dilate and this causes a drop in blood pressure in the body and this may force you to breathe more rapidly. All this affects thinner people more quickly. Women are also affected more quickly because their bodies contain less water. In the long term, steady drinking reduces the level of testosterone in men, shrinks the testicles and causes erectile dysfunction. There can be permanent brain damage, heart disease and anaemia. Excessive drinking is linked to liver damage and cancer.
It is possible that this could cause a sudden drop in blood pressure and other unwanted side effects if you take alcohol and Levitra at the same time. More importantly, if you have been drinking too much for too long, the Levitra is not going to help restore lost libido and hard erections. Once the damage is done, Levitra is not the cure.
Indeed, ironically, the alcohol started off working as an aphrodisiac, putting you in the mood for sex and dilating your blood vessels so that more blood was flowing into your penis. But if you drink too much, the brain messaging system and physical coordination is affected. What should have been a success is spoiled by having too much alcohol in your bloodstream. The answer as a younger man is to cut down on the amount you drink. This will give you a longer sex life.

I wanted a Metang, and so did my brother. BUT! When I tried, I saw the Metang totally bust my collection of balls. But why? It is not legendary---DESPITE THAT CATCH RATE.
It has a very low catch rate at three. This is lower than many legendaries and all non legendaries with a chance of .4% of a chance to catch it at full health with a pokeball. Its just how gamefreak wanted it but the probable reason is that it evolves into a psuedo legendary so gamefreak wanted to make it a challenge to get metagross who is very good because of its psuedo legendary status(although the other psuedo legendaries dont have this catch rate).

NC Court of Appeals upholds lower ruling on pre-K
Published: Tuesday, August 21, 2012 at 10:57 a.m.
Last Modified: Tuesday, August 21, 2012 at 10:57 a.m.
RALEIGH, N.C. (AP) — An appeals court has upheld a lower court decision that says North Carolina cannot deny at-risk children admission to the state's pre-kindergarten program.
A three-judge panel of the Court of Appeals ruled unanimously Tuesday against attorneys for the state who argued a Superior Court judge went too far in throwing out legislative changes last year to the North Carolina Pre-Kindergarten program.
Those changes included limits on the number of children considered at-risk that could be served and required some co-payments for the free program.
Appeals Court Judge Rick Elmore wrote that state attorneys misinterpreted the order to mean legislators must provide pre-kindergarten to all at-risk 4-year-olds in North Carolina. Elmore said the order was about eliminating artificial barriers to enter the program.
The Legislature dropped those limitations this year.

Safe evacuation under all weather conditions
Emergency preparedness equipment and means of evacuation - such as suits, rescue stockings and lifeboats - must meet regulatory requirements which are normative with functional requirements. This means that the regulations indicate which safety level must be reached - not how.
The regulatory requirements for means of evacuation entail that it must be possible to evacuate personnel on facilities quickly and efficiently to a safe area under all weather conditions.
Free fall lifeboats, supplemented by rescue stockings and associated life rafts shall be used as means of evacuation for evacuation to sea.
Lifeboats on the Norwegian shelf:
in June 2005, a skid-launched type lifeboat was damaged during a test at Veslefrikk B. Since then, the industry has worked to improve the free-fall lifeboats on the Norwegian shelf, primarily under the auspices of the Norwegian Oil Industry Association's (OLF) lifeboat project.
The lifeboat project has identified several weaknesses on existing lifeboats as the project has progressed.
The owners of the lifeboats – i.e. the operator/shipowner - have an overall responsibility for ensuring that the equipment being used is suited to the purpose and meets the functional regulatory requirements.
The regulations states that the party responsible must ensure that the necessary measures are taken as quickly as possible in hazard and accident situations … so that the personnel on the facility can be evacuated quickly and efficiently at all times.
An important part of the precautionary principle is that the individual operator and/or shipowner must immediately implement necessary compensating measures when, for example, weaknesses associated with lifeboats are uncovered. The precautionary principle also entails that measures must be considered - and possibly implemented - if there is uncertainty related to use of the lifeboats under given wind and wave conditions.
In spite of identified weaknesses, the PSA still considers free-fall lifeboats the best currently available technology in the field of lifeboat evacuation on the Norwegian shelf. In comparison, more time is needed to launch conventional lifeboats which are lowered down to the sea. In addition, only the boat's own engine power moves the lowered lifeboat away from the facility being evacuated.
The lifeboats' suitability as means of evacuation depends on the operators and shipowners complying with the regulatory requirements related to a precautionary attitude when uncertainty or new knowledge exists.
The PSA is therefore concerned with the owners of the lifeboats at all times incorporating experience gathered by, for example, OLF's lifeboat project, and that measures which ensure compliance with the regulatory requirements for prudent operations under all weather conditions are immediately implemented.

It is not always the amount of details that makes a good wallpaper. Sometimes, a simple yet unique idea (in this case to find a certain screenshot from an anime) can create a lovely wallpaper for Valentine's day. popiahime's "Pikachu's Valentine" is funny to look at (I totally love the bottle's design!), and it composes a sweet design for people's desktops. Even though I'm not a big fan of white backgrounds, this one fits really well to the composition and the rest of the colours.

WASHINGTON — U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) will commemorate America's 234th birthday by naturalizing more than 3,800 citizenship candidates in approximately 55 special ceremonies held across the United States and abroad. Nine of these ceremonies are specifically for members of the U.S. armed forces and military spouses. This year's ceremonies will celebrate the theme, "A Spirit of Independence."
"Independence Day reminds us all what it means to be an American," said USCIS Director Alejandro Mayorkas. "Today let us celebrate our newest Americans who, in taking the Oath of Allegiance and becoming United States citizens, will truly cherish this right, and will renew our highest aspirations to be the best that we can be as a nation of immigrants."
This year, USCIS's weeklong celebration of citizenship is highlighted by various special events, including a ceremony on July 1 at Independence Hall in Philadelphia, Pa., where 25 candidates will take the Oath of Allegiance only steps from the location where the Declaration of Independence was adopted in 1776. On July 2, a special ceremony will be held aboard the USS Midway in San Diego, Calif. for approximately 300 military candidates who pledged to protect our nation's independence even before becoming American citizens.
Special ceremonies will also be held at Ellis Island, N.Y., for approximately 150 candidates; the Seattle Center, Wash., where approximately 500 candidates will participate in Seattle's 26th Annual Independence Day Naturalization Ceremony; and the John F. Kennedy Space Center near Orlando, Fla. where approximately 100 candidates will become U.S. citizens.
Also during this week's Independence Day celebrations, more than 500 service members will take the Oath of Allegiance at nine all-military ceremonies, including in Baghdad, Iraq; Seoul, Korea; Frankfurt, Germany; Tegucigalpa, Honduras; Camp Lejeune, N.C.; and Fort Sill, Okla.
For more information on USCIS and its programs, please visit www.uscis.gov or view our blog, The Beacon, available at http://blog.uscis.gov.

THE Seiser Alm is an area in the most northerly part of Italy, in one of the regions that more or less govern themselves, which some would see as a good model for Scotland. One of the by-products of this autonomy is an integrated public transport system that makes getting around very easy and very economical for tourists. Again of interest if Scotland is serious about attracting more tourists.

POLAND has such a tormented history, perhaps nowhere more so than in Szczecin. It has been Danish, Swedish, Prussian, French, German (they called it Stettin because it was easier to pronoune) and finally controlled by the Russians until regaining its independence just over 20 years ago. This has not given much time to rebuild the city.

School Security Bills Survive Months After Fatal Shootings in Connecticut, AlabamaAs 2013 dawned, the nation continued to mourn the lives lost in the Sandy Hook school shooting, and soon after, mourned a heroic Alabama school bus driver who died protecting his students in late January. Legislators in every state rushed to draft bills designed to create new protections for American students in the wake of the murders, and in the Midland City, Ala., case, a lengthy hostage standoff.

Review: The First 30 Seconds DVD, Safe Havens InternationalA young boy gets on your school bus, carrying a guitar case. He seems more quiet than usual as you say, "Hi" to him as he boards. He puts his head down and walks down the aisle as if he knows what to expect. As he passes a group of students in the back of the bus they jostle him, one of them tousles his hair, and they laugh at him. He sits down, his head bowed for a second, when suddenly he stands up with a pump shotgun. Read more |

"Some odd choices make this a poor listen"
It turns out a lot of what most of us know about Columbine is wrong. Some headliners: the "trench coat mafia" was not involved, and bullying plays only a minor role in the story. Also I was totally unaware that the main thrust of the attack was actually a propane bomb intended to knock out a support pillar in the cafeteria during lunch. Investigators believe that had the timing device worked, the bomb would in fact have toppled the support and the death toll would likely have been in the hundreds. There's an awful lot of interesting stuff in this book.
Unfortunately, Cullen has decided to make this the definitive account of the Columbine massacre and so there's a lot of uninteresting stuff too. I appreciate Cullen's desire to tell the story of the victims on the moral premise that they deserve their stories told more than the killers deserve theirs. There's a logic to that, but ultimately I just don't care whether the third student who was shot wanted to be a lawyer or a pilot. Sorry. I don't make my listening decisions based on that sort of moral calculus.
And that encyclopedic focus coupled with Cullen's other odd choice, to tell the story out of chronological order, makes this a difficult listen. One chapter tells the very important story of why a warrant that was sworn out against Dylan was never actually executed, and then the next goes on at great length about how different churches in town held competing services in the wake of the attack. If you do get the book, I recommend using the audible app to skip the less interesting chapters.
In case you don't decide to listen, and overall I recommend against it, the takeaway is this: Dylan Klebold was a sadistic psychopath and the main force behind planning the attacks; Eric Harris was a depressed young man, like many depressed young men, who fell under Dylan's sway. Just why this particular pair ended up perpetrating what would have been, except for Dylan's ineptitude with fuses, the second (to 9/11) largest peacetime mass killing in American history is not entirely clear. But there were plenty of warning signs, and one family in particular (the Browns) deserve more notice as the unsung would-be heros of the story. They repeatedly contacted Dylan's family, the school, and the police to warn of the dangers of the budding psychopath, but their warnings were not taken seriously.
"I'd pass"
Not a lot to say: There's a magic to informal live theater and improv/comedy. I can imagine this having been a great experience in person, but I'm not sure. On audio though, I found it fell flat. If you're smarting from a firing, you might find more here than I did. Some fun details, but I can't really recommend it.
"A lot of fascinating content!"
Warren is not an amazing writer, and I don't like the framing of the book. But there's enough good stuff in here to justify a listen.
You might expect this to be a pretty hokey book: hypnosis, lucid dreaming, brain waves, biofeedback. A lot of it has a weird new-agey reputation. But that's exactly the point: there's perfectly good science behind all of this, even if many of the practitioners don't know it. To take one example: Warren goes to one of the world's foremost hypnotists, a man in his 80s (I think, it's been a little while since I finished the book) who used to be a university psychology researcher. He demos hypnosis very effectively and explains the simple relationship between easily measured brain waves and subjective consciousnesses.
Again, this is not a perfect book--too much of it is Warren self-indulgently reporting his experiences doing things like lucid dreaming seminars in Hawaii--but I don't know of a better one right now for explaining brain states. If you like Radiolab type stuff, give this book a try.
"Good book that you shouldn't bother reading"
This is one of those books that someone had to write, and I'm glad to know it's out there. Sommers carefully documents all of the craziness in the feminist movement in the 1990s, and there sure was a lot of it! Claims that sexual assaults increase massively Superbowl weekend (they don't) or that the leading cause of miscarriage is domestic abuse (not even close) were bandied about wildly without regard for truth. What's more fun is the portrayal of academic conferences and the crazy one-upswomanship: when some of the attendees gathered in a drum circle, others declared that this was an appropriation of their cultural traditions and demanded they stop, which they did reluctantly. It's a delightful image of what happens when claims of marginalization become badges of honor.
Yes, the book is very dated. This of course makes you wonder whether things have gotten better. I have no idea.
Ultimately, this is one of those books that needed to be written but that isn't worth reading. Feel comfortable knowing that someone has done the work of collating all the craziness. And yes, Sommers has some affiliation with conservative hacks. That's unfortunate, but to my reading, this doesn't really affect the book.
"Fun but not amazing"
There's a lot of 5-star reviews here that do a pretty good job of conveying the good parts of the book. I enjoyed it and I recommend it.
That being said, I can't call it a must-read. The story is entertaining but not really laugh-out-loud funny, and not must-know history. If you're looking for a fun, true story, go ahead.
"I don't regret it"
...but I wouldn't necessarily recommend it.
I'm not sure exactly what to tell you about this play. It's weird. If you like weird stuff, odds are decent you'll like it. It's a story with strong characters, including spiritual murderers and conflicted secular lawyers. I didn't find everything credible--in particular, why does the lawyer throw away her career for this particular client? It's supposed to be because he's so unusually compelling, but it doesn't feel natural to me and instead it seems like the detail that's meant to convince us.
If you're just coming across LA Theatreworks, I strongly recommend starting with the two Pulitzer play collections. If you've listened to a few and are looking for something /experimental/, this is a good choice.
"Very Listenable"
Good biographies are hard to write and often make poor audiobooks. Frequently biographers feel the need to be exhaustive, and the audiobooks drone on. Perhaps because this is part of "The Great Generals Series," whatever that is, this book manages to tackle its subject well without becoming boring. I enjoyed the book and would give it somewhere between 3 and 4 stars.
Pershing was an important figure who led a more interesting life than you might suppose. Before commanding WWI troops, he fought in Cuba, executed an impressive counterinsurgency campaign in the Phillipines, and led US troops against Poncho Villa in Mexico. He was a ladies man and had two great love affairs both with much younger women (though Lacey does a fairly poor job of bringing out Pershing's human side, which probably would have pleased Pershing). The first of these, his first wife, died tragically in a fire along with all but one of their children. Perhaps all this is why three biographies of Pershing have apparently been published in the last decade. I don't know if the other two do any better, but Lacey fails to really convince that Pershing is a figure worthy of study.
Let me attempt to make the argument: Thomas Ricks' recent wonderful book "The Generals" makes the case that the modern US military was largely the creation of one man, George Marshall, and that because the majority of young men of the WWII era served in the army, Marshall's personal style and strong character had untold impact in shaping the American century. In Ricks' telling, that's where the story begins, though he certainly mentions Marshall's close relationship (along with many of the other prominent WWII generals) to Pershing. After listening to this book, it's clear to me just how much Marshall absorbed from Pershing's leadership style. Pershing on the other hand, in Lacey's telling, didn't really have a mentor, just a hero: Ulysses Grant. Pershing taught himself the arts of leadership and logistics, and set the mold for the American commanders that followed. There feels to me a political dimension to all this. It's hard not to perceive a strand of creativity and liberalism in the thinking of Pershing and Marshall. Pershing, for example, repeatedly provided Phillipine insurgents with a route of escape as long as they symbolically surrendered the fight. In doing so, Lacey tells us he had much greater success than most of the army in other areas of the Phillipines. Marshall is remembered today as much for his contribution to rebuilding after WWII as for winning it. And Marshall's protege, Eisenhower, also showed his tendencies towards liberalism, especially as compared with more rigid military thinkers like MacArthur. All of this is very much in the great man school of history, but you cross that bridge the minute you start to read or write a biography.
All that being said, this is not the most exciting history book out there, and the lessons Lacey attempts to draw and comparisons to recent US experience in Iraq and elsewhere feel a little forced.
"Amazing! But probably better in print."
This is one of those books that you instantly recognize as a classic whether you knew it had that status or not, and then resent the world for not previously introducing you to it. The book is an exploration of the human dimension of war told through the experience of three reasonably well-documented battles: Agincourt, Waterloo, and the Somme. But it's not some namby-pamby celebration of the common soldier or anything obnoxious like that. Rather it's an erudite analysis of the cold reality: just how close were the soldiers together and in how many lines deep, and what happened when a cavalry charge actually crashed into the lines? How did the soldiers get to the front lines and how did they spend the night before, and so were they tired, cold, hungry, damp? The overarching strategic narrative of each battle is presented briefly, but for the most part each chapter focuses on the narrow tactical dimension: what happened, for example, at Waterloo when cavalry met cavalry, infantry met infantry, infantry met cavalry, or when artillery sprayed infantry or infantry or cavalry overran artillery. Some of the broader context is also discussed: how did the role of leadership evolve, how important was religion, and were the soldiers drunk?
Keegan is forthright about the limitations of his book. He focuses on three Western European battles fought by English troops. Near the end of his work, published in 1976, he discusses how tanks changed the role of individual battles--many of which were truly sieges he concludes--in WWII, and speculates about the future face of battle, clearly having WWIII against the Soviets foremost in mind. He doesn't anticipate, although it seems unreasonable to expect him to have, the increasing significance of counterinsurgency warfare. Perhaps the age of the true battle really is past and this book is of mere historical significance. Let's hope so. But if so, that makes the experience of reading about this lost world and imagining oneself in it all the more remarkable.
I highly recommend this book, but I will note that it's a little hard to follow on audio. It might work better on a long car-ride, but if you'd really interested, I think I'd suggest getting the print version.
"Even Hollywood was never this Jewy"
I liked this piece, but I didn't love it. It's an imagining of what actually went on in 1947 when Hollywood executives met at the Waldorf Astoria to discuss their response to the refusal of ten Hollywood writers and directors to testify before HUAC. It's a fun piece mostly because of its portrayal of famous and colorful characters, like Metro, Golwyn and Mayer.
While the Waldorf Statement is mainly remembered today as Hollywood failing to stand up for the principle of free speech, this play makes a lot of two issues we rarely think of. The first was an ongoing anti-trust campaign against Hollywood, which eventually led to the end of "the studio system," which I wikipediaed as a result of this play and I invite you to do the same. Chasing imaginary communists, which ironically meant these powerful men colluding at the Waldorf, was seen as a way to get Congress to look the other way on their exclusionary business practices.
The second issue was antisemitism. This was only a couple of years after the end of World War II, and there was a perception of Jews and communists (and Jewish communists) having manipulated the country into fighting their enemy, the Nazis. Also, these powerful men had vivid and fresh images of a seemingly advanced country turning against Jews in horrific fashion. It's a good point that I hadn't fully appreciated in the broader story of the Red Scares, but I think it's a little overdone in this piece, hence my healine.
I'll mention that there are a lot of characters, all male, with deep, slightly accented voices tending towards hysterics. Usually LA Theatreworks does a very good job of picking voice actors you won't confuse, but they have their work cut out for them with this piece, and they only partly succeed.
"Hard to explain what I disliked"
I barely took a history class in college, so I'm not all that clear on what the conventions are, but this series of college-style lectures really felt like a litany of events to me. I vaguely remembered many of the names of events from high school history class, but I didn't remember how they fit together. Then I listened to these lectures on a car trip, and for maybe a week I did remember how they fit together, sort of. And now as I'm writing this review, I don't again.
To be sure, Smele makes a strong effort to get beyond this. Every third lecture or so he stops and does a synthesis/analysis lecture, summarizing the main forces behind the success or failure of whatever just happened. And each time he does, it basically makes sense, but then you get to the end, and one of the greatest nations on Earth has just been toppled by a bunch of ideological loonies, and it's hard to remember just why all the steps followed. One of the important factors, it seems, was that the Bolsheviks ended up occupying the cities once the civil war really got going, and from there they could muster large armies of the underclasses who basically fought for whoever controlled their territory. So was the failure of the Whites a failure to grasp this basic strategic point? That's certainly part of it, but I can't tell you how big a part.
I guess I'm being unfair to Smele. This is a really important subject, and I don't know of a better work on it, certainly not on audio. But I still didn't care for it.

Bruegel's range of subjects includes religious histories—Numbering at Bethlehem (Brussels), Way to Calvary (Vienna), with figures clothed in contemporary Flemish dress; parables—The Sower (Antwerp), The Blind Leading the Blind (Naples); genre scenes—Children's Games, Peasant Dance (both: Vienna); landscapes showing the activities of the months—(several in Vienna, Harvesters in the Metropolitan Mus.); and other works. A skilled draftsman and etcher, he used a delicate line to define his figures. His people are stubby in proportion, but lively and solid. His color is remarkably sensitive, as is his feeling for landscape. His compositions are often based on diagonal lines and S-curves, creating gentle rhythms and allowing planes of landscape to unfold into the distance.

The wholly government owned investment entity Oman Oil Company (OOC) will shortly sign an agreement with Abu Dhabi's International Petroleum Investment Company (IPIC) formalising their partnership in the joint development of the Sultanate's third refinery at Duqm. The pact will pave the way for the establishment of a joint venture company to invest in, develop and implement the greenfield refinery project within the Special Economic Zone at Duqm. It will also enable the promoters to secure debt finance for the project, which is estimated to cost $6 billion.
"In this upcoming agreement, both sides will commit themselves to the joint implementation of the Duqm Refinery project. This would represent a significant ramp-up of their initial partnership arrangement to jointly evaluate the feasibility of the refinery venture, to a firm pledge to see the project through to fruition," a government official told the Observer. In conjunction with the signing of a formal agreement, the joint developers are also expected to reveal their choice of a Project Management Consultant to oversee the construction of the massive venture. Oman Oil Company has also appointed a Project Director to liaise with the Project Management Consultancy firm during the implementation phase of the project. Significantly, the impending agreement will add to a flurry of developments designed to pave the way for the expeditious development of the 11.5 million tonnes per annum (230,000 barrels per day) capacity grass roots refinery. The project also anchors an ambitious petrochemicals cluster envisaged in later phases of Duqm's development as an industrial hub. Last month, Oman Oil Company and the Port of Duqm Company, which operates a giant multipurpose port adjoining the Duqm SEZ, announced plans for the formation of a joint venture named Duqm Petroleum Terminal Company (DPTC) to operate and manage a new Liquid Jetty at Duqm. While Oman Oil will hold a 90 per cent stake in the JV, the balance will be offered to Port of Duqm Company. The jetty will handle the massive liquid volumes in crude feedstock and refined products that will flow through the port when the refinery is operational tentatively in 2017. Designed to accommodate ships of around 150,000 deadweight tonne (DWT) capacity, the Liquid Jetty will be connected to the refinery via a network of pipelines. Earlier this month, Oman Oil subsidiary Oman Gas Company (OGC), which operates the country's 2,500-kilometre gas transportation grid, firmed up plans for the construction of a pipeline to supply Duqm with its requirements of natural gas as energy and feedstock.
The 230-kilometre pipeline, which will channel gas from Saih Nihayda in central Oman to Duqm, will supply gas to a proposed power and water project and cement plant, as well as the refinery and petrochemical complex. At the same time, a number of international engineering consultants are preparing to bid for a contract to undertake the Front End Engineering Design (FEED) for the refinery project. Around eight companies are understood to have been prequalified to participate in the FEED tender. The Special Economic Zone Authority of Duqm (SEZAD), for its part, has pledged to facilitate the rapid implementation of the refinery and associated petrochemical complex. An initial 900-hectare site has earmarked for the venture in area of the SEZ earmarked for heavy industries. The Duqm refinery is slated to come into operation in the fourth quarter of 2017.

Featuring multiple, stackable forms in clear or coloured crystal, the Variations collection of stemware and vases is a series of surprises. Pleated, smooth, or cut, in different diameters and heights, the bowls focus attention on the solid, tactile nature of each base. Accented by acid colour hues, the glasses exude a relaxed, neo-pop vibe, while each vase, radiating a pale, soft halo, is almost sculptural in effect, magnified by a novel glass-cutting technique that is unique and, so far, unparalleled. A tribute to Colorama, Variations has reinvented crystal, fusing contrast and close harmony, solid and light, to ensure that every piece sings in unison.
