Amsterdam's Jewish Quarter is east of the old city in the Plantage. Before WWII, this was a bustling area crammed with businesses and shops with Waterlooplein market at its heart. World War II saw Amsterdam's Jewish community decimated but today the sights of Jewish Amsterdam can be seen in the Jewish Cultural Quarter as well as in the world-renowned Anne Frank Huis on Prinsengracht.

Museums for Children in Amsterdam

Tulip Island in the Vondelpark, Amsterdam
August 8, 2014
Amsterdam's favorite city park stretches over 47 hectares and is the site of several restaurants and cafés as well as an open-air theater and plenty of manicured green space, pathways that are largely the preserve of cyclists and inline-skaters, and nature reserves where birds breed safely away from the public eye.

Cycling Routes in Amsterdam
August 7, 2014

Spawning enemies and NPCs
In the console, type spawn X (where X is the corresponding character type) to spawn that character. For example, to spawn an Elite Guard, type "spawn enemies_elite_guard" (without the quotation marks). Note that, unlike in Doom 3 or Quake 4, specific enemies can only be spawned into the current level if they already appear somewhere in the level. For example, in Downtown, you can spawn all basic infantry types, as well as Scribes, Sniffers, Elite Guards, Despoiled, Heavy Troopers, and Rocket Troopers, but not Flame Troopers, Assassins, or Altered.
spawn enemies_elite_guard: Spawns a blonde Elite Guard armed with a dagger.
spawn enemies_elite_guard_02: Spawns a brunette Elite Guard armed with a whip.
spawn enemies_ak_flame_trooper: Spawns a Flamethrower Trooper.
spawn allies_kreisau_soldier_01: Spawns a friendly Kreisau soldier armed with an MP40 smg. Valid characters are 01 to 05.
spawn enemies_despoiled_green: Spawns a green Despoiled (flaming skeleton).
spawn enemies_ak_heavy_trooper: Spawns a Heavy Trooper.
spawn enemies_despoiled_red: Spawns a red Despoiled (flaming skeleton).
spawn enemies_ak_rocket_trooper: Spawns a Rocket Trooper with a jetpack.
spawn enemies_scribe: Spawns a Scribe (magic user).
spawn enemies_sniffer: Spawns a Sniffer (mutant).
spawn enemies_wehrmacht_officer: Spawns a Wehrmacht officer armed with an MP40 smg.
spawn enemies_wehrmacht_sniper: Spawns a Wehrmacht sniper armed with a sniper rifle.
spawn enemies_wehrmacht_infantry: Spawns a Wehrmacht soldier armed with a Kar98 rifle (may cause map to crash if this enemy type is not already present in the level).
spawn enemies_wehrmacht_infantry_mp40: Spawns a Wehrmacht soldier armed with an MP40 smg.
spawn enemies_altered: Spawns an Altered (giant, invincible mutant)
spawn enemies_ak_assassin: Spawns an Assassin.
spawn enemies_SS_officer: Spawns an SS officer armed with an MP43 assault rifle.
spawn enemies_SS_sentry: Spawns an SS soldier armed with an MP43 assault rifle.
spawn allies_kreisau_erik: Spawns friendly Erik Engle armed with an MP40 smg. Has more health than a basic Kreisau soldier.
Boss Tips
Here are some tips for beating the final boss:
For the first part, use Empower to get through his shield. Use explosives -- the Panzer Rocket Launcher and the Veil Blue Rocket Launcher.
For the second part you can use either the Slow Motion or Empower once again to beat him.
For the third part, dont run up the ramp. Snipe him with a Sniper Rifle or Rocket Launcher. Go slowly. Once you get to the part where you need to climb up stairs, get a weapon ready to kill large amounts of those things on 4 legs (they call 'em Sniffers). There are 4 waves of them. Afterward, simply shoot him until he falls.
For the fourth part, simply shoot him since at this point he will have no power ups. Use the explosives to end him quickly.

I really love this cleanser. When I was dying from not washing my face before freshman year, my face broke out horribly. I originally used the Oxy Maximum Strength Acne Wash which did clear my skin, but left my oily skin extremely dry and flakey. I read that you could tone down the percentage of benzoyl peroxide in your face wash and it'd still be as successful so I transitioned from 10% to the 3.5% in this cleanser. At first, I was seriously skeptical that this thing would work and read over 100 reviews to see how good it was. It payed off. My skin is really clear and I only have about 3 blemishes at a time now. Plus, the fact that it's non-foaming makes it more fitting for use with my Clarisonic.
I've used it as both a daily cleanser and mask. When using it as a mask, you really do feel a tingy cooling effect on your face, but if you leave it on for too long your face can feel really itchy. I don't suggest using it as a spot treatment because it can bleach your sheets. Once I heard that Neutrogena might be discontinuing it I was about to cry! There aren't many low percentage non-foaming BP cleansers out there and this one works so well! I bought a second one just in case, but I really hope it stays around. I almost resorted to purchasing the Clinique Liquid Facial Soap, but then realized this cleanser was SO much better because it was medicated and really cleared your pimples because of the BP.

I use this as a mask and while I don't think it's a miracle worker, it does feel nice and I do feel like my pores are super clean. As far as it being discontinued, I don't seem to have any problems finding it in my part of the country. But if anyone is looking for a similiar cleanser with BP, try Clean and Clear Continuous Acne Wash. It has 5% BP (I believe) and comparable in price. I have had great success with it as a daily cleanser.
I also think this has been discontinued and it makes me want to cry. I have never tried a cleanser with BP in it before this, and this is the ONLY thing that has helped clear up my skin as well as my Dermalogica Bedtime for Breakouts. These were the only 2 products I used and I learned that less is more...I finally had clear skin!! I went to Ulta twice and their shelf was empty for this product. Then I went to Walmart...same thing. I can't believe they are discontinuing this product! I talked to a rep for Ulta and we were trying to find a comparable cleanser to this (one with BP instead of SA which does nothing for me), and the only thing I found was DDF Acne Scrub with 2.5 BP. It is literally $30 more than the Neutrogena, but I did always wish they made it with little scrubbies like the DDF. So, if the DDF works anything like the Neutrogena, I will continue to use it. Other than that...this stuff was THE SH*T! So sad it's gone.

I like that this is a creamy foamy cleanser and a mask in one!!! Nice. Works like a mud mask. :) Makes me look fresh after. I like it.
I really hope this isn't being discontinued, as another poster reported. Because it has a low concentration of BP, it controls my acne without making my skin too dry (a dab of facial lotion counteracts the mild flakiness). I haven't experienced any problems with premature aging yet, but that could be because I use the Neutrogena cleanser in the morning and an Olay anti-aging scrub at night. After two weeks on this combined regimen, my moderate acne has cleared up. I don't have any more pimples, with the exception of one scabbed over blemish that's in the process of healing. That's another thing: I've noticed that my blemishes heal faster when I use this cream. No more red acne scars.
Unfortunately, the BP that does such a good job of fading acne scars willl also bleach fabric. So if you do not want to ruin your nice shirts and blouses, just wash your face in the shower so that you can rinse fully before getting dressed.
Aside from that minor caveat, I have no problems with this cleanser. I plan to keep using it--or something like it--for as long as I can afford it. Although it's not as expensive as high end acne cleansers from Clinique and Proactiv, it's still a little pricey for a drug store cleanser. But it's worth every red cent!

ive only used this once so far but tonight will be my second time trying it out!
im just using it as a mask 2 times a week because it really seems to help me out that way, i love neutrogena, i also use the neutrogena oil free acne wash, together they seen good, :)
ps. my pores have gotten smaller, it doesent take away or fade the red marks but it takes the pimples and everything away, red marks usaully go away between 6 to 12 months.or your could get dermavation, deppening on how bad you have acne.
there is always a solution :)
but this product works really good as a mask for me :)
I'm having wonderful results alternating a combination of products. The Neutrogena Clear Pore mask with Acne Stress Control one morning and the Oil Free Acne Wash with a benzoyl peroxide cream the next. Skin looks great! And I have difficult skin!
More reviews by strandedinpolska
I've been using this as a face wash for about several months. I didn't have any issues with it in general. It helped clear up any hormonal acne I got along the way and helped keep my skin clear and smooth. But after a while I noticed I was getting fine lines along my forehead (horizontal ones) and I'm only 23 and judging by my mother I know what I'm in for and for being 55, she looks great. So I was a little upset by this. And I couldn't figure it out. Then I read Gottalight's review a few posts down and did some research and found other users of this product were also experience premature aging. So I am discontinuing the use of this face wash and we'll see if I get any reversing. I hope so. :[
More reviews by angelicgirlangel
One of the few products I've ever repurchased. I use this as a mask, and it's one of the few things that makes a difference in my acne. The mint is very refreshing, the kaolin soaks up oil, and the benzoyl peroxide does its job.
1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
I have very oily skin acne-prone skin and this cleanser keeps my breakouts at bay. I use it in conjunction with Clearasil treatment cream to prevent and treat breakouts. It contains menthol so it gives a nice tingly feeling. I've tried it as a mask but found it to be too drying. My only complaint it that it doesn't last long. Especially, if used twice a day. I noticed my skin was getting too dry so I switched to once a day and continued to use my Neutrogena grapefruit scrub once a day. I highly recommend this for acne-prone skin.

DEFINITION of 'Capital Pool Company (TSX Venture)'
A new, fledgling company trading on Canada's TSX Venture exchange that has no commercial operations and no assets except for cash. A capital pool company (CPC) uses its cash holdings to evaluate promising businesses or assets that it would acquire in a qualifying transaction, which it has to complete within 24 months of listing. Companies trading as a CPC have a "P" after their ticker symbol. The completion of the qualifying transaction would enable the CPC to list as a standard Tier 1 or Tier 2 issuer on the TSX Venture exchange.
INVESTOPEDIA EXPLAINS 'Capital Pool Company (TSX Venture)'
A CPC that cannot complete its qualifying transaction within the prescribed time limit of 24 months of listing may be at risk of a trading suspension or delisting from the TSX Venture exchange. A CPC trading on the TSX Venture exchange can be identified by the ".P" added to its trading symbol.
The TSX Venture exchange's CPC program is a unique offering that connects individuals who have financing and directorial experience with entrepreneurs whose early-stage companies need capital and management expertise.

ETA: This is not a situation I have ever personally dealt with. I just heard the term and was curious about it. Could be why some people here are missing their periods and have symptoms but are not PG? Idk. Just thought it was interesting..
False Pregnancy (Pseudocyesis)
False pregnancy, or pseudocyesis, is the belief that you are expecting a baby when you are not really carrying a child. People with pseudocyesis have many or all of the common symptoms of pregnancy, with the exception of an actual fetus. This condition is very rare, occurring in only one to six out of every 22,000 births. It is most common in women aged 20 to 44, although it can affect women of all ages.
In rare cases, even men can have a false pregnancy. Some men experience a related phenomenon known as couvade, or sympathetic pregnancy. They will develop many of the same symptoms as their pregnant partners -- including weight gain, nausea, and backache.
What Causes False Pregnancy?
Doctors have been aware of pseudocyesis for centuries, but only recently have they begun to understand the psychological and physical issues that are at the root of the condition. Although the exact causes still aren't known, doctors suspect that psychological factors may trick the body into "thinking" that it's pregnant.
When a woman feels an intense desire to get pregnant, which may be because of infertility, repeat miscarriages, impending menopause, or a desire to get married, her body may produce some of the signs of pregnancy (such as a swollen belly, enlarged breasts, and even the sensation of fetal movement). The woman's brain then misinterprets those signs as pregnancy, and triggers the release of hormones (such as estrogen and prolactin) that lead to actual pregnancy symptoms.
Some researchers have suggested that poverty, a lack of education, childhood sexual abuse, or relationship problems might play a role in triggering false pregnancy. Having a false pregnancy is not the same as claiming to be pregnant for a benefit (such as for profit), or having delusions of pregnancy (such as in patients with schizophrenia).
Symptoms of False Pregnancy
Women with pseudocyesis have many of the same symptoms as those who are actually pregnant, including:
- Stopping of menstrual period
- Swollen belly
- Enlarged and tender breasts, changes in the nipples, and possibly milk production
- Feeling of fetal movements
- Nausea and vomiting
- Weight gain
These symptoms can last for just a few weeks, for nine months, or even for several years. A very small percentage of patients with false pregnancy will arrive at the doctor's office or hospital with what feels like labor pains, but they will not deliver a baby.
Tests for False Pregnancy
To determine whether a woman is experiencing a false pregnancy, the doctor will usually evaluate her symptoms and perform a pelvic exam and abdominal ultrasound -- the same tests used to feel and visualize the unborn baby during a normal pregnancy. In a case of false pregnancy, no baby will be seen on the ultrasound, and there won't be any heartbeat. Sometimes, however, the doctor will find some of the physical changes that occur during pregnancy, such as an enlarged uterus and softened cervix.
Certain medical conditions can mimic the symptoms of pregnancy, including ectopic pregnancy, morbid obesity, and cancer. These conditions may need to be ruled out with tests.

Was going to be a three, but I liked it more after reading her chapter about it in her [b:In Other Worlds: SF and the Human Imagination|10356713|In Other Worlds SF and the Human Imagination|Margaret Atwood|https://d202m5krfqbpi5.cloudfront.net/books/1328311650s/10356713.jpg|15259682].
Dystopian elements checklist:
-New names for current geopolitical locations (Gilead, National Homeland One);
-Forced propaganda consumption, often about vanquished foes ("…after the catastrophe, when they shot the president and machine-gunned the congress and the army declared a state of emergency. They blamed it on the Islamic fanatics, at the time.");
-Constant surveillance (the Eyes)
-Being forced to hide true emotions due to aforementioned constant surveillance ("…the voice is placid, flat, unrevealing. We pass the first checkpoint without saying anything further.")
-Remaining true to yourself "inside" despite aforementioned hiding of true emotions ("…I can feel speech backing up inside me, it's so long since I've really talked with anyone.")
-Ironic government slogans ("God Is A Natural Resource")
-New gov't bodies/orgs (The Commanders)
-Scapegoat/victimize to consolidate power (Mob killing of accused rapists)
-Everyday resistance ("…an event, a small defiance of rule, so small as to be undetectable, but such moments are the rewards I hold out for myself… such moments are possibilities, tiny peepholes.")
-Organized resistance ("…the Appalachian Highlands, says the voice-over, where the Angels of the Apocalypse, Fourth Division, are smoking out a pocket of Baptist guerrillas, with air support from the Twenty-frist Battalion of the Angles of Light.")
-Class structure, haves and have-nots ("It's only for officers…from all branches; and senior officials. And trade delegations of course. It stimulates trade. It's a good place to meet people. You can hardly do business without it…No nicotine-and-alcohol taboos here! You see, then do have some advantages here.")
-New vocabulary (Unwomen, Econowives, Marthas, etc)
-Remembering 'before' (tons! Life with Luke and her child, the transition of power)
Margaret Atwood's nightmarish story of a totalitarian future will leave you very unsettled.
In a world where radiation has caused much of the population to become infertile, a totalitarian regime has changed everyones way of life. Offred is a handmaid, she is sent to live with a Commander and his wife, in the hope that she will bring them a child. She must endure ritualistic ceremonies and pray that the Commander will make her pregnant. If she produces a healthy child she will be safe, not banished to the colonies and deemed "unwoman." Littered with flashbacks to "the time before" we see Offred's past and how much of that is now gone.
I read this book as part of a science fiction module at university, and it blew me away. It's the sort of book I'm still thinking about and still turning over in my head even though I finished it a while ago. It's definitely a book everyone should read in their lifetime. The writing is incredible, told in a first person narration style, we get an intimate look at Offred's life - we do not know her actual name, each handmaid takes the name of their commander Ofglen, Ofwarren. Their lives are controlled down to the minutest detail. One of the interesting things that really struck me about the novel is how believable it all is, this horrifying, nightmare could actually happen - in fact Atwood herself said that she didn't put anything into the story that had not already happened somewhere in the world. That gives me a shiver down my spine, the idea that our world could so easily be turned upside down. Throughout the book Offred references the past, the small things that change that at first you don't really bother about, the the loss of jobs for women, the controlling of their money and slowly but surely the complete destruction of the way everything once was.
There are so many interesting characters in this novel. If I had time I would go into immense detail about them all, but I don't want to spoil the story. I found the Commander and his wife extremely interesting. The Commander who asks Offred to play Scrabble with him and complains that "men have nothing to do." The hard, unforgiving Serena Joy, the commander's wife, formerly an activist for women to stay in the home, who unfortunately got her wish and then some. One of my favourites has got to Moira, Offred's best friend from the time before, we catch snippets of her through the story, and her inherent will to survive is astounding.
The "Historical Notes" which end the novel is a particularly interesting chapter, provided as a lecture in the future, in which a group of scholars are discussing Gilead - though they are not there to judge, simply to uncover the truth behind the regime - is such an ironic, satirical chapter that it definitely adds to Atwood's wonderful, quirky style. I've spoken to a few people who have read other Atwood novels, and they all come highly recommended, I can't wait to sink my teeth into another one of her wonderful, unusual novels.
Margaret Atwood creates an engaging and heartbreaking dystopian world in The Handmaid's Tale. Set in a near distant future, this story is told from the point of view of a "hand maid" named Offred. Hand maids are young women who are used as a tool of reproduction and repopulation. Throughout the story, Atwood details the world Offred lived in prior to the events in the story, illuminates some aspects of what caused the world to change, and explores how the citizens of Gilead deal with their status as members of a police state. This novel explores gender roles in society and demonstrates just how tenuous our standing in society can truly be. The open ended conclusion to the story was quite satisfying as it left the reader with a variety of options for the fate of the protagonist and the larger world.
This famous 1980s dystopian novel paints a vivid and bleak portrayal of a repressive regime (Gilead) set up in America after some kind of traditionalist right wing takeover, which involves placing most women in utterly subordinate roles as "baby carriers" for the wives of the ruling men in this society. Indeed, one of the new society's slogan is an ironic distortion of the famous Marxist Leninist slogan: "from each according to her ability, to each according to his needs". The new regime also destroys books, luxury items and clothes, and bans and represses all non-Christian religions, or indeed non-conforming Christians. An interesting scenario, though we don't really find out the back story as to how this perverted society arose until over half way through the novel. The coup apparently involved the massacring of the President and Congress, blamed on Islamic fanatics (though this is a throw away sentence which isn't explored any further); then comes suspension of the Constitution, censorship and closing down of the press, then laws stopping women from holding jobs or owning money or property (or even from reading books or magazines). By the time our unnamed Handmaid is telling her tale, the regime has been in place for a few years, though as she also says that the earlier pre-coup life is well within the memory of 14 year old girls, it seems a little surprising that the new order has embedded itself so completely in such a comparatively short time. We don't find out the ultimate fate of our heroine, though in a postscript set 200 years into the future, her tale is being discussed at an academic conference as a source of evidence of Gileadean theocracy.
Despite this fascinating scenario and the commentary it no doubt provides, to a degree, on right wing Christian fundamentalism in the United States, I didn't really much enjoy reading the novel. I found the author's writing style a bit of a chore in a number of places and novels written in the present tense tend to grate on me. It was sometimes unclear whether the Handmaid was describing events in her present or her past and exactly how other events related to each other in time. So, a significant novel but not, in my view, a great one.
It has taken me much thought as to how to put into words how good this book is. Imagine my surprise when I discovered that Margaret Atwood did not write historical romance, like I thought, but actually wrote thought provoking science fiction. The Handmaid's Tale is one of those rare books that was written in 1986 but showed some amazingly accurate insights into the future.
Some of the events that have occurred to create this world that Margaret Atwood wrote are strangely linked to the political climate at present. The book tells the story of one main character who we never find out her name. Through her reflections back we slowly learn what has happened to her and how the world that is described came about. There is interesting visual references made to the colour of dress that main characters wear and this has left me thinking what the author was trying to tell us with the colours she used.
This is simply a beautiful tale that I urge anyone to pick up. I thoroughly enjoyed this read and have added Margaret Atwood to my list of authors I would like to read more from. A must read.
As a cautionary tale, Atwood's novel lacks the direct, chilling plausibility of Nineteen Eighty-Four and Brave New World. It warns against too much: heedless sex, excessive morality, chemical and nuclear pollution. All of these may be worthwhile targets, but such a future seems more complicated than dramatic. But Offred's narrative is fascinating in a way that transcends tense and time: the record of an observant soul struggling against a harsh, mysterious world.
How sad for postfeminists that one does not feel for Offred-June half as much as one did for Winston Smith, no hero either but at any rate imaginable. It seems harsh to say again of a poet's novel - so hard to put down, in part so striking - that it lacks imagination, but that, I fear, is the problem.
It's a bleak world that Margaret Atwood opens up for us in her new novel, ''The Handmaid's Tale'' - how bleak and even terrifying we will not fully realize until the story's final pages. But the sensibility through which we view this world is infinitely rich and abundant. And that's why Miss Atwood has succeeded with her anti-Utopian novel where most practitioners of this Orwellian genre have tended to fail.

Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 038549081X, Paperback)In the world of the near future, who will control women's bodies?
Offred is a Handmaid in the Republic of Gilead. She may leave the home of the Commander and his wife once a day to walk to food markets whose signs are now pictures instead of words because women are no longer allowed to read. She must lie on her back once a month and pray that the Commander makes her pregnant, because in an age of declining births, Offred and the other Handmaids are only valued if their ovaries are viable.
Offred can remember the days before, when she lived and made love with her husband Luke; when she played with and protected her daughter; when she had a job, money of her own, and access to knowledge. But all of that is gone now....
Funny, unexpected, horrifying, and altogether convincing, The Handmaid's Tale is at once scathing satire, dire warning, and tour de force.
(retrieved from Amazon Mon, 30 Sep 2013 13:34:40 -0400)
A look at the near future presents the story of Offred, a Handmaid in the Republic of Gilead, once the United States, an oppressive world where women are no longer allowed to read and are valued only as long as they are viable for reproduction.

SACRAMENTO, Calif. (AP) - Eight infants have been exposed to tuberculosis at a Sacramento hospital's neonatal intensive care unit.
The Sacramento Bee says the babies are doing well and they weren't exhibiting any symptoms on Monday.
If an infant tests positive for TB, the child will be treated with six months of antibiotics before being tested again.
Public health officials say someone with active tuberculosis spent time in the Methodist Hospital of Sacramento neonatal facility from Aug. 23 to Sept. 3.
The person felt ill and went to the Methodist Hospital emergency room where the TB test was positive. The person is isolated and receiving treatment.
Tuberculosis is a serious, treatable and slow-growing bacterial lung disease that is transmitted through microscopic droplets from coughing, sneezing, talking or singing.

Re:Three year s ubscription... (204 comments)
I think it is normal to start with a "cure letter" telling them they are in default on the contract and giving them 30 days to come into compliance or face termination. This usually leads to something both sides can live with.

Modern Warfare 2, as is the company's pattern. And that's where David Kim's LinkedIn profile comes into play (check out his personal site here), which mentions that he's currently working as senior animator on Call of Duty 7.
With Modern Warfare 2 expected to deploy this holiday season, though, we likely won't hear anything substantial on this new Call of Duty for some time. But, considering how Activision likes to pump out the sequels to its key franchises, it's probably a safe bet to expect Call of Duty 7 sometime in 2010. We actually knew that before this listing popped up.

... I arrived in Beijing and opted to take a cab to the hotel as it is fairly inexpensive in China. I got to the hotel and met with my tour guide. I needed to repack and sort my stuff so by the time I finished everything it was around 16:00. My roommate and I decided to walk down to the lame that was near the hotel and grab a bit of food. Of course I had my favourite chicken dish. We got back to the hotel by 18:00 as some of us ...
