A New Story to Tell
During my last year of college and my first year of marriage, my husband, Hadi, did most of our housework. He bought our groceries, made our dinners, and did our laundry. I expected this: my father assumed similar tasks whenever my mother was working toward another degree. There was a subversive element to this that I appreciated. Both my husband and my father defied the stereotype of the patriarchal Muslim man; both my mother and I were far from being subservient Muslim women.Then, quite … [Read more...]
Go Be You
I've been thinking about fate, lately. About what's 'meant' to happen, what does happen, and what our role is in all of that. This past week, I helped a friend get through a really bad break up. I also went to a fantastic event. And it all just made me think.In business, the first few years, you have to hustle. Nothing falls into your lap. If you want it, you're going to have to go after it, it's not a waiting game, it's a chasing game. That's what they say anyway, whoever they are.In lov … [Read more...]

"You know, you can talk to me in Bangla if it makes you more comfortable," I said quietly. I could sense my passenger was struggling, words stumbling from his tongue."Oh that's right," he responded, slightly surprised.

Love Comes Later
We had been married just over 24 hours and had just finished dhuhr prayer when a friend of the family, my mother-in-law's dearest friend, kneeled in front of us and grasped our hands in hers, with a look of tenderness and concern."Now I need to tell y'all something. This right here, right now? You think this is the love but I have to tell you, this isn't the love."We looked at each other, eyebrows raised, knowing smiles on our lips, the wisdom of those in their early twenties (which is to … [Read more...]

"This is a gorgeous card. I like the "frozen" look to it. The snowflake cut-outs are amazingly crisp and clean. The layer of blue on the left side is much more subtle than it appears on the screen. I actually wish it was light blue all throughout instead of the yellow-ish beige-y tint on the right side. I also would've enjoyed the option to add a picture with caption on the backside. Overall though, this has to be my favorite card design, possibly ever."
"We looked at several different companies, but settled on Tiny Prints due largely to the fact they had the greatest number of religious (46) cards. After all it's the Magic (St Nicholas) AND the Miracle (birth of Christ) of Christmas. The cards arrived in a week and were exactly what we ordered. We will use again every year for sure. Thanks TP you are great!"
"I can hardly believe the difference in print quality from some sites to this one!!! Everything about this card was perfect...quality, pearl shimmer, personalization. Yes, yes, yes!!!"
"When this product arrived I was pleasantly surprised. The clarity of the print was exception especially since it was taken with my iPhone 5s! The cardstock is a heavy weight and is by far a superior product!"
"I have been ordering Shutterfly and Tinyprint holiday cards for years, and I've always been pleased. But I think this year Tinyprints and I have really outdone ourselves! I ordered the "elated tidings" cards with shimmer paper and the bracket trim. I also upgrade to the kraft envelopes, and I skipped the "elated tidings" matching address labels in favor of the "golden laurels" address labels, and I'm thrilled with that decision. I think they look great together. I did the black back with a one paragraph mini-letter about my year. The cards printed beautifully. The shimmer is subtle and gives the card a luxe look. I can't wait to get these in the mail!"

Hamilton County Mayor Jim Coppinger said the county has enough funds to complete three of six proposed new school projects — but he won't say how much the county has to work with or which schools he thinks should be built.
But he will meet with commissioners privately to discuss the projects outside of public view.
School Superintendent Rick Smith presented the six projects to commissioners today during a recessed session.
The projects include an elementary school to replace Ganns Middle Valley Elementary and Falling Water Elementary; a replacement and expansion of Chattanooga School for the Liberal Arts; additions to Sale Creek Middle-High and Nolan and Wolftever Creek elementaries; and a new middle school in the East Hamilton area.
Coppinger told Commission Chairman Fred Skillern he was prepared to share the three projects he thought should be built, but Skillern instructed him to meet with commissioners individually.

With Git, how can I tell if one commit in my branch is a descendant of another commit?
If you want to check this programmatically (e.g. in script), you can check if
If one of commits you are asking about is a branch tip, then
From Git 1.8.0, this is supported as an option to
From the man page:
For example:
This kind of operations relies on the notion of range of revisions detailed in the SO question: "Difference in 'git log origin/master' vs 'git log origin/master..'".
So I would try:
If the last commit displayed is the same than the first commit in the git rev-list command, then it is a commit reachable from the second commit.
If the first commit is not reachable from the second,
would finish by A, if A is reachable from B. It is the same than:
,with B a positive reference, and A a negative reference.
Another way would be to use git log and grep.
This will produce one line of output if commit def456 is an ancestor of commit abc123, or no output otherwise.
You can usually get away with omitting the "--pretty" argument, but it is nee if you want to make sure that you only search through actual commit hashes and not through log comments and so on.

Aster pilosus pringlei
Pringle's Aster
Asteraceae (Compositae)
Perennials, Flowers
There are more than 600 species of true asters, ranging from 6-in.-high alpine kinds forming compact mounds to open-branching 6-ft.-tall plants. Flowers come in white or shades of blue, red, pink, lavender, or purple, mostly with yellow centers. Bloom time comes in late summer to early fall, except as noted.
Taller asters are invaluable for abundant color in large borders or among shrubs. Large sprays effective in arrangements. Compact dwarf or cushion types make tidy edgings, mounds of color in rock gardens, good container plants.
True asters are adapted to most soils, but growth is most luxuriant in fertile soil. They have few problems except for mildew on leaves in late fall. Strong-growing hybrids have invasive roots; they can regrow from small fragments left in soil and spread to become nuisances. Divide yearly in late fall or early spring. Replant vigorous young divisions from outside of clump; discard old center. Divide smaller, tufted, less vigorously growing kinds every 2 years.Aster pilosus pringlei
Eastern U.S. native known in cultivation through its variety 'Monte Cassino', a familiar florists' cut flower. Grows to 5 ft. tall and 1 1/2 ft. wide; tall, narrow stems have many short side branches set with starry white, 3/4-in. flowers. This plant is often sold as A. ericoides 'Monte Cassino'.

Two practices were enough for new Mingus Union High School head coach Dave Beery to introduce 15 of his varsity and junior varsity basketball players to Camp Verde High School with road scrimmage wins June 10.
Although they could only muster 13 points at halftime, the Marauders varsity adjusted to score over 30 points in the next 20 minutes to beat head coach Dan Wall's varsity by eight points, while the MUHS junior varsity handled the Cowboys easily in round-robin tournament action at CVHS.
"Our JV team really dominated," Beery said. "You get up big, you can kind of get sloppy, but I didn't really see a lot of that. Camp Verde didn't have that many kids, but we played hard the whole time."
It did not help that Beery was only able to run two practices prior to the three scrimmages June 10 — the first organized action for the bulk of the Marauders hoops program under its new coach.
"We went through our offense just a couple of times 10 minutes prior to the first game," he said. "One of the varsity kids joked at halftime how they averaged 80 points a game last year and only had 13 at the half. We didn't really execute at all the first half."
Slowly but steadily, behind a three-guard rotation of juniors Fabian Navarro and Evan Snyder and sophomore Chris D'Angelo, the varsity battled back, tightening its defense in what Beery characterized as a "pretty tightly officiated" first game.
"The officials were consistent," he said. "I told them at the half, you can either step in front of somebody or let them score.

Score from 195 reviews Very good
situated in the midle of the vines this hotel is great to be in the middle of rural tuscany with friendly staff and a clean and confortable room.
it was hard to find and the location was diferent from the one on booking (i.e. maps), so he had to take the car to go to Radda.
Friendly reception from Leonardo, quiet location in the vineyards, outdoor swimming pool, hot sunny weather in late September.
Just some words of advice - The location wasn't where the Booking.com website showed. It is east of Radda in Chianti, down the hill before you reach the next village called Villa. You will see a sign post to Le Vigne on the road SR 429. We could walk to it with luggage from the bus stop in Radda in Chianti.
Great location
Pool overlooking the vineyards of Chianti. Location close to town. Traditional stone villa.
Facilities run down, toilet did not flush, television miniscule, grounds a bit unkempt.
Lovely location just outside of Radda. Very welcoming members of staff and the on site restaurant had absolutely amazing food! Especially the desserts! Thank you for an enjoyable stay!
Great location, ideal place to sit among the vineyards and drink wine.
This rural setting, overlooking farming land, within walking distance of Radda, gave a sense of relaxation
GPS location was not clear.Walk to town not suitable in the dark, or in wet weather
The sorrounding vineyards, the rocky style construtcions and the excellent service of the staff make the stay at hotel Le Vigne an amazing and unforgetable experience. Leonardo has warmly welcomed us to the hotel and made ourselves as confortable as possible. Another highlight is their restaurant. High class dinner to remember. Excellent hotel!
Excellent position in a rural setting. The rooms were large and spacious, opening onto a rural view and the sounds of birds and farming activities. The walk into town through the local tracks was pleasant but not suitable in the dark and the rain. The restaurant downstairs made the common areas fragrant with the possibility of a hearty meal, and was convenient for breakfast and meals. Radda itself was a pretty little town.
Idyllic spot in countryside, splendid views. A lot of space for the money.
Facilities not in top shape, furniture old & crumbling. Very difficult to find, gps coordinates wrong, and signs on road direct one to the main restaurant (& hotel?, which is not where we stayed). We were directed to a place signed as "Le Fontanelle". I'm still confused.
The restaurant and the view are really great!
The smell in the room and the poor breakfast.
The staff were very warm and obliging, and the location amongst the vineyards of Chianti is very beautiful. The restaurant is excellent. The self-contained two bedroom stone house we booked was spacious, the views from the windows were stunning and the kitchen was well-equipped, although the main room would benefit from the addition of a comfortable sofa.
Location in wineyards
We lived in the room near reception so were very noisy.... Breakfast was poor.
Quiet, traditional Tuscan hotel. Small and simple. Winyard view from the bedroom.
The staff was friendly and spoke very good english.
When we arrived we were told that the hotel was booked but they can refer us to another hotel nearby. It was not that near but they gave us a very nice room. The other hotel was called de naci. Afterall the hassle the stay was ok

Women footballers face femininity questions
Mel Cooke
MANY OF Jamaica's female footballers can empathise with the South African, Caster Semenya, as they have faced similar questions about whether they are male or female.
But for most of these female footballers, the questions come because of choices they make.
"Many dress like men. They walk with a sort of male swagger, while their language could make male sailors blush," a football referee told The Sunday Gleaner.
"There have been matches where I see the girls and I have been tempted to ask for gender tests," the referee added.
Jean Nelson, one of the managers of the female football teams with the Jamaica Football Federation, has a long history with the sport in Jamaica.
She managed the first Jamaican female team, which played an international game in the 1991 CONCACAF tournament, held in Haiti.
When The Sunday Gleaner asked Nelson if she had ever heard comments about the female footballers looking like men, she said she had.
"It is how they dress and carry on. Off the field, it should be a different thing," Nelson said.
shorts halfway down
Then there was an instance, not quite off the field but still not quite on it, that reinforced the issue of dress and how a standard needs to be enforced.
"I was at a game in Mandeville. A girl was warming up, with her shorts halfway down," Nelson said.
Still, it could be a case that too much femininity in a player could be a disadvantage in football, as Nelson said she had seen players "look that way and other girls try to cow them".
Pointing to former world female footballer of the year, Mia Hamm of the United States, Nelson said she had no doubt that a woman can play what is considered a man's sport at the highest level and remain overtly feminine.
Women's football has come a long way in Jamaica from when the Jamaica Women's Football Association was formed in 1990, with Nelson heading that organisation.
Accessing sponsorship was difficult and "women playing football was seen as a big joke". For the 1991 CONCACAF tournament, they did fund-raising themselves, with Portia Simpson Miller integral in funding the airfare.
After starting out with six teams in the initial year, two dropping out to leave only four, last year, there were two female football leagues, a premier and an 'A' league. This year, there is a premier league and a knockout competition involving 12 teams, with KSAFA having a five-a-side competition as well.
coaches speak harshly
Nelson has heard players complain about how the coaches, all male, speak harshly to them and says, "A whole paradigm shift has to take place."
She says nearly all the players come from the inner city and "there is this aggressiveness in the society and the inner city".
"At the inner-city level, there is so much anger, and I am seeing that many of these girls are playing it out," Nelson said. "It is not just the female footballers, but across the society."
Charlene Bryanknows just what impression a female footballer's masculine appearance can make. Her niece, who lives in the United States, plays football and "out here, she would have a harder time. There, she fits right in. Here, she would be stereotyped as butch and maybe gay".
However, even in the US, she has had to deal with repercussions from her mannerisms and appearance.
One of her male classmates is going through a sterilisation process on his way to becoming a woman. Her niece was asked to share a room with him on a school trip. "Her mother said no," Bryan said.
Name changed on request.

I'm pretty fed up with how the media and the IAAF have handled Caster Semenya's case. It is downright ridiculous and I agree that it borders on a violation of human rights. When it comes to female football athletes, it is more of the norm for them to behave more aggressively. The sport is high impact, and with the type of work out it takes, these women, much like Caster, will probably show higher levels of testosterone than the average woman. Nothing is wrong with that. The average woman does not play football. I don't see what the big deal is really. So what, if they appear butch, or gay.
The only thing is that they should still carry themselves in a way that shows respect to themselves while representing their sport. I don't know if they do or not, but that's the bottom line.
Too much is being made out of this...way too much

War of words between pro & anti gay activists on HIV matters .......... what hypocrisy is this?
Urgent Need to discuss sex & sexuality II
Calls for Tourism Boycotts are Nonsensical at This Time
(2014 protests New York)
Calling for boycotts by overseas based Jamaican advocates who for the most part are not in touch with our present realities in a real way and do not understand the implications of such calls can only seek to make matters worse than assisting in the struggle, we must learn from, the present economic climate of austerity & tense calm makes it even more sensible that persons be cautious, will these groups assist when there is fallout?, previous experiences from such calls made in 2008 and 2009 and the near diplomatic nightmare that missed us; especially owing to the fact that many of the victims used in the public advocacy of violence were not actual homophobic cases which just makes the ethics of advocacy far less credible than it ought to be.

Violence and venom force gay Jamaicans to hide
Violence and venom force gay Jamaicans to hide a 2009 Word focus report where the history of the major explosion of homeless MSM occurred and references to the party DVD that was leaked to the bootleg market which exposed many unsuspecting patrons to the public (3:59), also the caustic remarks made by former member of Parliament in the then JLP administration. The agencies at the time were also highlighted and the homo negative and homophobic violence met by ordinary Jamaican same gender loving men. The late founder of the CVC, former ED of JASL and JFLAG Dr. Robert Carr was also interviewed. At 4:42 that MSM was still homeless to 2012 but has managed to eek out a living but being ever so cautious as his face is recognizable from the exposed party DVD, he has been slowly making his way to recovery despite the very slow pace

What to do if you are attacked (News You Can Use)
Try to reason with the attacker: Establish communication with the person. This takes a lot of courage. However, a conversation may change the intention of an attacker.
Do not try anything foolish: If you know outmanoeuvring the attacker is impossible, do not try it.
Do not appear to be afraid: Look the attacker in the eye and demonstrate that you are not fearful.
This may have a psychological effect on the individual.

Edwards vs. Kerry
From the July 19, 2004 issue: Look who doesn't buy the presidential candidate's critique of the Iraq war.
Jul 19, 2004, Vol. 9, No. 42 • By STEPHEN F. HAYES
"THE UNITED STATES of America should never go to war because it wants to," said John Kerry last weekend in a speech in Cloquet, Minn., accusing the Bush administration of bellicosity. "We should only go to war because we have to."
Did we go to war in Iraq just because we wanted to, or because Iraq posed a threat? Kerry's new running mate John Edwards addressed that question from the Senate floor on October 10, 2002, explaining his decision to vote to authorize war in Iraq.
"I'm here to speak in support of the resolution before us, which I cosponsored. I believe we must vote for this resolution not because we want war, but because the national security of our country requires action."
We do this dance every four years. Politicians from the same party trash each other in a primary and then, when they later join hands, reporters dig up all of the bad things they said about each other. (Remember "voodoo economics"?) It can be a tiresome routine. But this year's Kerry-Edwards paper trail is an exception. Why? Because Edwards, it turns out, has almost eerily anticipated and answered Kerry's chief criticisms of the Bush administration's Iraq policy:
The Bush administration "misled America." Kerry is fond these days of claiming that the Bush administration "misled" the country to go to war in Iraq. Here he is during a June 25 appearance on Nightline with Ted Koppel. The administration "deeply misled the American people. I think the evidence is quite clear."
For Edwards, however, the evidence wasn't quite so clear. "So did I get misled? No. I didn't get misled," he said on Hardball with Chris Matthews on October 13, 2003, almost a year to the day after he voted to authorize the Iraq war and some six months after major combat ended. When Matthews followed up, asking Edwards if he got an "honest reading on the intelligence," the junior senator from North Carolina seemed to place much of the blame on the intelligence community.
EDWARDS: "And as you know, I serve on the Senate Intelligence Committee. So it wasn't just the Bush administration. I sat in meeting after meeting after meeting where we were told about the presence of weapons of mass destruction. There is clearly a disconnect between what we were told and what, in fact, we found there."
What's more, on February 24, 2002, Edwards was asked by CNN's John King about President Bush's labeling of Iraq, Iran and North Korea as an "axis of evil." His response: "You know, the most imminent, clear and present threat to our country is not the same from those three countries. I think Iraq is the most serious and imminent threat to our country. . . . And they do, in my judgment, present different threats. And I think Iraq and Saddam Hussein present the most serious and most imminent threat."
The Iraq war and the war on terror. "This administration took its eye off of al Qaeda," Kerry told reporters in Detroit on June 17, "took its eye off of the real war on terror, which was in Afghanistan and northwest Pakistan, and transferred it for reasons of its own to Iraq." Asked what those reasons were, Kerry was coy: "You have to ask the administration."
He might have directed those same reporters to Edwards, who said this on October 10, 2002. "Others argue that if even our allies support us, we should not support this resolution because confronting Iraq now would undermine the long-term fight against terrorist groups like al Qaeda. Yet, I believe that this is not an either-or choice. Our national security requires us to do both, and we can."
Going it alone. In a December 3, 2003, speech Kerry accused Bush of going to war "almost alone." Worse, he continued, "the United Nations is divided, years of work is torn apart, and we are fighting an increasingly deadly guerrilla war in Iraq almost single-handedly. We have lost the goodwill of the world, and overextended our troops, and endangered rather than enhanced our own security. I believed a year ago and I believe now that we had to hold Saddam Hussein accountable and that we, the United States, needed to lead in that effort. But this administration did it in the worst possible way: without the United Nations, without our allies, without a legitimate plan to win the peace."
Edwards by contrast, in his Hardball appearance two months before Kerry's speech, understood that "we couldn't let those who could veto in the Security Council hold us hostage."

Choi faced the most difficult decision of her life: whether to put her mother – who only spoke Korean and weighed just 62 pounds after stomach cancer surgeries – in a nursing home. Choi was thrilled to discover that her mother was eligible for home health care covered by Medicaid.
But soon another hurdle emerged: Not a single agency in the Philadelphia area employed Korean-speaking aides. It took Choi seven months to find someone.

For seven years, Judy Berry watched her mother endure 12 hospitalizations for dementia-related behavior. However, Berry thought her mother didn't fare well during treatment – she was often overmedicated (with what Berry later learned were inappropriate psychotropic drugs), strapped into a chair and left to wither away.
Bill Clinton, Bill Gates and Al Gore may all be remembered for the work they did after the end of their hugely successful midlife careers. And what about the rest of us? (This article originally published on The Huffington Post on Huff/Post50.)

In 1982, when pediatric immunologist Arthur Ammann documented the first known cases of AIDS transmission from mothers to infants, little was known about the disease. Today, more than two dozen drugs treat those infected by HIV, especially in wealthier countries. In resource-poor regions, however, the AIDS epidemic rages on, with particularly devastating effects on women and children.

As both a medical professional and an avid traveler, ophthalmologist W. Andrew Harris knew the need for skilled medical care in developing regions of the world. He also knew his colleagues, many of whom were nearing retirement, were devoted to helping others but lacked the training to practice medicine in often difficult circumstances, including limited supplies, inadequate facilities or familiarity with diseases they were unlikely to have treated in the United States.

In 1995, after a decades-long career in public health that included managing Mississippi's largest community health center, Aaron Shirley hatched a new plan for improving the lives of low-income residents of Jackson, Miss. Shirley partnered with the University of Mississippi Medical Center, Tougaloo College and Jackson State University to convert a largely abandoned mall into the Jackson Medical Mall, the only facility of its kind in America to provide quality health care, human services and retail in one place.

Carl Sederholm is a champion and connoisseur of horror movies. First a hobby, then an obsession, he channeled his love of fright into a career, teaching classes about American horror and monsters at Brigham Young University.
"The thing that I worry about is that horror will be seen in terms of immorality," Sederholm said of his beloved subject. "And it's an easy target because you might have a film that has violence, or it might have bad language or it might have nudity exploitative-type material. But I've always come to the sense the horror, the story itself, is moral in the end."
Sederholm anticipates denouncements of the horror genre. People have questioned his own morality in light of his favorite subject.
But fans like Sederholm say horror is a self-reflecting genre. It puts a magnifying glass to our collective love of terror, using current events and our own worst enemy — ourselves. Although the trend may be to create bloodier, more violent scenes, the horror genre is at its best when it leaves things to the overactive imagination.
We love horror
"Let me put my horror hat on here," Sederholm said as he attempted to explain what draws him to the genre. "I think that I've always thought that people do like to be scared, even those who say they don't. And I think part of it has to do with the fact that it's fear in a safe environment. I mean, as scary as a horror movie is, there's really nothing that can harm you at all in that circumstance. People often tell me that they don't watch horror because they don't like to be scared. Sometimes I think they're just afraid that somehow it's real."
There are purposes for this fake fear, said Brigid Cherry, horror expert and author of "Routledge Film Guidebook to Horror."
"These experiences all allow us to vicariously experience thrills and terrors with low to zero risk," Cherry said. "This can be cathartic, maybe allowing us to get some anxieties out of our system, but many people also find these feelings exhilarating for their own sake or find the relief afterwards pleasurable."
Cherry said that horror films have many subgenres within the main genre that may appeal to different people and create different responses. Various types of monsters and villains allow moviegoers to experience things they might otherwise avoid, testing their limits of bravery, Cherry said.
Villains reflect society
That dark side is reflected in the nature of the villains in horror movies, and the ways the characters are victimized by the bad guys. Through the ages, horror films have existed to create larger-than-life villains for our subconscious to sort through.
"Horror films tend to reflect the anxieties of the cultural moment," Cherry said. "Many of the 1950s horror films deal with fears related to the Cold War, nuclear disasters and science run wild. It is said that every time gets the monsters it deserves, be these rampaging terrorists that fall from the sky or mental patients, pedophiles and sadists that prey on our teenage children either at home or on trips to Europe."
Sederholm said that a large push in the last 20 years of horror has been to make a villain who is less obvious. Whether they keep their masks on, or have unclear motives for their crimes against humanity, our modern bad guys are less predictable.
"You don't really meet people like a stereotypical villain all that often," Sederholm said. "A villain may actually do something nice for someone. On the way to their great heist they might help an old lady across the street."
