Take care of your brain now
Alzheimer's disease is the sixth leading cause of death in the US, and that figure isn't going down. In fact, as America's older population grows, deaths from Alzheimer's continue to rise, and have increased 66 percent since 2000. If current population trends continue and no cure is found, the actual number of people living with the disease could double every 20 years.
Lifestyle factors, however, can play an important role in protecting your brain as you age. By leading a "brain-healthy" lifestyle, you may even be able to prevent the symptoms of Alzheimer's disease entirely and slow down, or even reverse, the deterioration of aging.
The health of your brain, like the health of your body, depends on many factors. While some factors, such as your genes, are out of your control, many powerful lifestyle factors are within your control. If you are an older adult, or the caretaker of an aging parent or grandparent, a few key factors will help you get and remain "brain healthy," and may help the afflicted person to continue functioning. They include:
>>Exercising regularly
>>Eating a healthy diet
>>Mental stimulation
>>Getting a quality sleep
>>Managing stress
>>Maintaining an active social life
If you are caring for an aging parent or grandparent, don't neglect your own needs. Take a break and do something you enjoy. If you are feeling guilty, angry or frustrated, realize that these feelings are normal and that you are not alone. You are not failing as a caregiver by asking others for assistance. So, seek out the support of your family, friends and resources in your community.

Gulfstream's 10-Cent Rainbow 6 Rewarding Fans With Lucrative Payoffs
Gulfstream's 10-Cent Rainbow 6 Rewarding Fans With Lucrative Payoffs
While the ultimate goal of every player this afternoon is to have the only winning ticket on Gulfstream's $1.3 million 10-cent Rainbow 6, being a consolation winner the past few weeks has provided some rewarding payoffs as well.
The 10-cent Rainbow 6, which is paid out when there is only one unique ticket with the winners of Gulfstream's last six races, has not been hit since Dec. 29. As the pool continues to grow, fans who hold one of the multiple tickets with six winners see the consolation payoffs continue to grow.
While there was no unique winning ticket on Friday's Rainbow 6, those having six-of-six winners were paid $14,308.67 and Thursday's winners received $10,276.72. Some of the other consolation payouts have been $31,202.20 (Jan. 20) and $8,933.51 (Jan. 26).
If there is no unique winning ticket on the Rainbow 6, 60 percent of the day's pool is paid out while 40 percent is carried over.
Gulfstream's 10-cent wager climbed as high as $5.1 million in 2011. The biggest single winning ticket was $791,364.73.

Greensboro, North Carolina
On February 1, 1960, when four freshmen from the Agricultural and Technical College of NC took seats at the store's "whites-only" lunch counter, they had no idea what might happen. The waitress ignored them, as did the store manager and a pacing policeman. The next day, the four young men returned with 19 supporters. By the third day, the number had risen to 85 and before the week was out, there were 400. Inspired, other students staged smaller sit-ins in seven other NC cities as well as in Hampton, VA, and Nashville, TN. The movement these four men started became so important that their original four seats became a featured display in the Smithsonian National Museum of American History, and the F. W. Woolworth Building received a $148,152 Save America's Treasures grant in 2004. The building currently houses the International Civil Rights Center and Museum, which commemorates the struggle for civil rights.

James Franco has been in a few stinkers through the years -- but there's one movie even he admits is pure trash.
So, which movie does the star of such poorly-rated flicks as "Tristan & Isolde," "Annapolis," "Flyboys" and "Eat Pray Love" cite as a career low point?
The answer: "Your Highness."
The medieval comedy, which costarred Natalie Portman, Danny McBride and Zooey Deschanel, was released in 2011 and currently has a horrible 26% on Rotten Tomatoes.
"Your Highness? That movie sucks. You can't get around that," Franco says in the June issue of GQ.
This isn't the first time that Franco has publicly criticized one of his own films.
While promoting "Spring Breakers," James told Badass Digest that "Annapolis" was "a really bad movie" -- adding that "it didn't turn out very well" and he "ended up not liking the experience and not liking the movie."
Ouch, biting the hand that feeds much?
After trashing the movie, "Annapolis" director Justin Lin spoke out, telling Huffington Post "We were all very young and we were all doing the best we can ... and for someone to kind of lay judgement, you know, it is hurtful. And I think it's very disrespectful."
Which movie do you think is his worst? Sound off below!

PROVIDENCE – The Rhode Island ACLU has filed a lawsuit against the Pawtucket School Department seeking public records regarding its high-stakes testing policy that it claims the department has withheld, but Superintendent Deborah Cylke said Thursday that it has already provided the requested information and the suit was filed "in error."
The suit, filed in Superior Court by volunteer attorney Karen Davidson, asks the court to demand the production of the schools' waiver policy regarding the NECAP (New England Common Assessment Program) and to impose fines and penalties on the school district as well as attorney's fees.
Full story appears on Page 1 of Saturday's Times.

- Income Protection Insurance
- Income protection insurance guide
- What benefits should I expect?
What benefits should I expect?
What benefits should I expect?
What benefits should I expect?
An income protection policy will pay out up to the benefit limit selected, but only after deducting other monies you are still getting, including;
- Ongoing payments from your employment such as sick pay or wages
- Ongoing payments from self-employment
- Any pension payment that starts on the date of incapacity
- Any other insurance payments from another policy or a policy from an employer.
- Dividends from shares etc.
Terminal illness benefit
Some policies have an extra optional or included benefit. If you are diagnosed with a terminal illness, which is likely to lead to your death within 12 months, the insurers will allow you to take a period, e.g. six months, of benefit as a lump sum. If you take this the policy usually ceases. Unlike a life policy, insurers do not wait until you die to pay out.
Death benefit
Most income protection policies do not have a death benefit. Some will pay a death benefit based on 12 times the monthly benefit, if you die within 12 months of being claiming. Having a death benefit does not make them life policies.
Waiver of premiums benefit
A waiver of premiums benefit may be included as part of an income protection plan or available for an extra charge. As your policy is ongoing, you still have to pay your monthly premiums if you are not working due to incapacity. This will apply even during the weeks or months of claiming.
A waiver of premium benefit effectively pays the insurance premium for the days/weeks you are ill.
Rehabilitation benefit
Insurers recognise that just paying cash is only one element of helping to protect income. Increasingly, income protection insurance providers are looking to include either in the policy or in their service to those unfortunate enough to claim, some form of rehabilitation assistance. This may include help in getting physically better, retraining, and assistance in getting a new job.
A new trend is for insurers to include some form of proportionate benefit, to pay a partial income if the person goes to work on a part-time basis. This accepts that few people can suddenly go from having months or years away from work, and instantly return to full time work, particularly if they have some form pf permanent disability.
House Persons benefit
Even if your partner has no paid work; the work that he/she does around the home may be of major financial benefit. So, unless you could afford to pay someone else to do all their work, then seriously consider including them in the policy or buying a separate policy.
The aim of a house person type policy is to pay for employing help, buying any special aids, converting the home
As income and ability to do an occupation are both confusing factors on house person cover they are not used. Payment is by a weekly or monthly set benefit .The basis for claiming is when a person no longer has the ability to perform certain daily activities; ranging from an inability to walk up to complete dependency.
What about tax on income protection plan payments?
Tax is a very complex subject where the rules can be changed by the government almost instantly. A lot also depends on the individual interpretation by the local Revenue.
In current practice, benefits are not usually taxable. But different rules may apply if you are a High Income taxpayer or not a permanent resident of the UK.
When should monthly income protection plan benefits start?
No income protection policy will begin to pay out until you've been off work for between 4 to 6 weeks. A policy, which pays out after four weeks, will be far more expensive than one, which pays out after 6 months. So, choosing a longer "deferred period" can dramatically cut your monthly premiums.
If an employee, check how long your employer will pay you sick pay (one/three/six months?) and then work out how long you can survive without your income by relying on limited State benefits, savings and other assets.
Income protection benefits will not be paid for any period during which you're receiving sickness benefits from your employer.

The Zaanse Schans windmills - The Zaanse Schans is a delightful old hamlet on the banks of the river Zaan with characteristic green wooden houses, charming styalised gardens, small hump-backed bridges, tradesmen's workshops, historic windmills and engaging little shops. This enchanting hamlet gives an excellent impression of how a typical Zaanse village must have looked like in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. Apart from the cluster of windmills and houses there are also several museums, restaurants and a visitors' centre to be found as well as the possibility of taking a boat trip on the river. The Zaanse Schans has become one of the top tourist destinations in the Netherlands, there is no entrance fee and is open all year.

I'm Just Here as a Drop-In.
Hi. I'm new here.
I am here as a drop-in because I don't really know much about yoga and I'm not sure yet if I will like it. I have seen women who claim they practice yoga, and I admire their level of fitness, their calm presence and sense of inner strength. I see what they have and I am intrigued.
Plus, I hear yoga is relaxing and I need that.
Are we going to chant in yoga? What exactly is "om?" Is this like a religion?
I have taken exercise classes before, but I wasn't sure what to wear to a yoga class. I stopped by the local sporting goods store and I hope what I have on is appropriate. I am going to stand near the back, if that is okay. At this point I feel a little bit out of place and feel more comfortable in a spot where I can see what others are doing.
I took Pilates one time. I have heard yoga and Pilates are kind of the same. Is this true?
You seem like you really know what you are doing, but I don't understand Sanskrit so thank you for saying the alternate English names and also for demonstrating. I also appreciate the adjustments you suggested during the pose.
Thank you so much for being kind and guiding me through with your words so I have a better understanding of what to do. I am grateful that you explained it, but didn't focus too much attention on me either, which would make me feel on the spot.
You want us to do a headstand? I remember doing those when I was a kid, but I'm not sure I can do them now and that freaks me out a little bit. Oh, you don't recommend I do them yet? That's good, I'll do the prep work you just showed me.
Wow, look at that woman over there doing a headstand!
She looks like she is maybe in her late 60's. That is incredibly awesome and I hope to be in that great of shape at her age. Is that because of yoga?
The people in this class look different than what I expected. I assumed everyone would be super thin and young. Seeing students of all ages and sizes makes me feel a lot better and more at ease. You definitely can't judge a book by it's cover! They are all so amazingly fit!
So class is almost over? That went really fast and didn't even seem like an hour and a half. What is Savasana? I just have to lay here? What is the point of that? Okay, I'll do it but it seems kind of silly….zzzzzzzz. Oops, I think I just dozed off. I hope I didn't snore because that would be really embarrassing. I guess we sit up now.
"Namaste," you tell us. "Namaste," the class responds. You explain that namaste means your spirit honors the spirit in me. That's lovely, actually.
I notice my muscles are pretty fatigued. You say I might be sore tomorrow? I didn't realize yoga was such a workout. I feel really good, though—stronger.
I think I'll be back.
Like elephant yoga on Facebook.

3 Responses to "I'm Just Here as a Drop-In."
I am a drop-in student too. But not the stereotype I am the perennial advanced beginner, the perennial drop in (with a regular home yoga practice of over 6 years' standing). Nearing 60 and I can't do a headstand – and it is medically contraindicated for me now to even try (though I got into teddy bear headstand just a few years ago). I want to go to that class you described–but only if I get the right before-class vibes (i.e., no pincha before class by the wall to warm up, thankyouverymuch, as described in this blog post http://www.mnn.com/health/fitness-well-being/stor… – perhaps she was spying on one place in the New York City area from where I will never take yoga EVER AGAIN!)—and NOT the Boomer Yoga/Gentle Yoga the studio owner has wanted to shunt me into for YEARS.
Amphibi1yogini, I love your attitude. I wrote this because I still feel like a beginner 5 years after starting yoga and because I remember this was very much like me in my first class. I didn't actually start out with this wonderful teacher, but I am in her class now. I took yoga from a couple other places (including the YMCA) and felt like i could take the advanced class when I signed up at the current studio I attend. Boy was I wrong! However she has been an amazing teacher and the other students have all been very supportive to each other. If you are ever in Ohio I highly recommend her!
I am very heavily into pilates, though, unlike your protagonist. At New York Sports Clubs, they'd certainly gotten THAT class, right … they'd been tone-deaf on their yoga programs. So, since then, and for only the second time ever, recently my pilates teacher (who also teaches yoga) became my yoga teacher – for a time.
But things changed. …
The yoga class (at the pilates studio) changed format. But before that change time, I'd thought I'd died and gone to heaven – a yoga class that was mostly Mandala Namaskar ! Very much like I'd been looking for all my yoga life, milder and yet more creative than my kick-butt, lengthy, comprehensive home yoga practice (the standards – unvarying – by which I decide to leave these four walls; as, in reality, my time and my discretionary money are scarce); but now NO classes in my immediate (if City-wannabe) area which fit that rough description …
So yeah, the young rank newbie and the old fusionista/connoisseur have that Walk-In status in common …

Italy has long been Europe's political laboratory, having invented fascism, incubated eurocommunism, launched the postwar economic miracle, and brought the social democratic nanny state to ruin. Most Italians are very unhappy, as well they might be. Unemployment is at record highs (13 percent overall, the highest in the history of the measurement, while for 15-24-year-olds, it's 42 percent). The cost of living, as anyone who has visited recently will know, is outrageously high, and more and more parents are telling their children to learn German or English and emigrate. Few believe in a new miracle. They think their country is rotten to the core, profoundly corrupt in all key institutions, from politics to business, and banking to soccer. Even the old bit of folk wisdom "things were better when they were worse" (because people were more honest and worked harder) has proven wrong. Things are worse, and they haven't gotten at all better.
This explains the country's latest political experiment: Throw the old bums out, let a new generation give it a try. The broom is wielded by a 39-year-old Tuscan named Matteo Renzi who has been prime minister for a month and a half. I'm obliged to tell you that I've known him for about 10 years, and he has always seemed to me the creation of central casting: handsome, well spoken, a lovely and talented wife who teaches school, three terrific kids. He's a lot more fun than the usual geriatric crowd that Italians are accustomed to, including 88-year-old president Giorgio Napolitano and the man who governed the country for most of the past 20 years, Silvio Berlusconi, now pushing 78. Renzi's presence in the official residence (Rome's Palazzo Chigi) has produced at least some hope of positive change. He's energetic, an avid tweeter, gives lively press conferences, and is calling for real reform of the country's sclerotic institutions and practices.
Renzi's spectacular career is an extended revolt against various political establishments and flies in the face of conventional political wisdom. In a very few years he's gone from political unknown (mayor of the Florence Province) to mayor of the city of Florence, to head of the center-left Democratic party (PD), to prime minister. The last three advances were widely written off in advance by the pundits as quixotic adventures. But there he is, having swept aside the Florentine leftist establishment, the elders of the PD in a national primary he won by a landslide, and then a sitting government. Many now ask whether he has the skills and the stomach to govern a major country in crisis.
As in the past, his current agenda is very ambitious. He sums it up as "cut up Italy." Cut taxes, cut the bureaucracy, cut government programs and agencies, and effectively reduce parliament to a single house (he wants an unelected senate with no budget, no role in selecting the prime minister, no vote on budgetary matters). He's created a panel to choose the first batch of "useless organisms" to eliminate, and he says that's only "the antipasto," with many more to come. He's starting well. Last week parliament approved his budget, including tax cuts.
Among the likely projects: eliminate the requirement that all companies sign up with their local Chamber of Commerce, and find a way to encourage banks to lend more money to families and businesses. The IMF says that credit restrictions over the last 18 months have cost the country roughly 2.5 percent of GDP. But the biggest challenge will be the reform of labor laws, which means resolving the longstanding impasse between the trade unions, who want job security for their members, and the business community, which insists on greater flexibility in hiring and firing. Right now, there are long-term (think lifetime) contracts, and short-term agreements for brief periods, after which the former employees get thrown back on the unemployment rolls. Some of those who counsel Renzi think it would be best to have a much freer labor market, providing greater hope to those now working beneath a ticking clock as their short contract expires, and greater freedom to employers to expand and contract their employment numbers in response to market conditions.
While Renzi is the head of a center-left party that is the most recent version of what used to be the Communist party, he is certainly no doctrinaire leftist, and in many ways is no leftist at all, as demonstrated by his unlikely political alliance with Berlusconi's center-right Forza Italia. Berlusconi himself remains a major force, and has just dodged imprisonment for fraud, which is a lucky break for Renzi since Berlusconi provides the prime minister with a majority.

Well it looks like we need just one more win to clinch this thing. There are 27 total points, so the first to 14 wins. Currently we lead 12-3 (loss in womens XC and a draw in womens soccer).
These are left:
12.07 W Swimming Ames
12.08 M Basketball Ames
12.09 Wrestling Ames
02.22 W Gymnastics Ames
03.09 W Gymnastics Iowa City
04.01 Softball Ames
I think we should win the games in red and could lose the one in black. I am not sure about the swimming programs, so I left it nuetral.
this could easily be a 22-5 (without swimming results) rout.
2004-2005: 8-11
2005-2006: 13-6
2006-2007: 8-13
2007-2008: 12-3
Running total: 41-33
Interesting that the home field teams are consistent in winning, but there hasn't been a pull away year. We are on to that this year. Let's finish strong Cyclones and pull a HUGE win in the Cy-Hawk Series!!
Go Cyclones!!
The first and best victory is to conquer self; to be conquered by self is of all things most shameful and vile. - Plato

There has been another horrible event in the Middle East. The use of nerve gas against the citizens of Syria resulted in at least 1,000 deaths.
The political upheaval in that part of the world has been occurring for centuries with no sign that it will ever change. Yet once again, the United States government feels the need to respond. The Senate Foreign Relations Committee is back early from its most recent break, debating how we should be involved in this latest crisis.
While no one would dispute the despicable nature of the use of nerve gas against innocent civilians, I do wonder why the loss of life in Syria warrants the moral outrage of a Congress that has done nothing to alleviate issues facing our own people.
While middle class Americans slide into poverty, roads and bridges disintegrate, first-responders lose their jobs for lack of funding, schools fall apart and libraries reduce their hours, the elected officials in Washington have failed to act.
I know that feeding hungry children in America is not as sexy as a missile strike. In fact, unless its an attempt to keep women barefoot, pregnant and back in the kitchen, suppressing the vote of those who disagree with them or answering the call of big oil, our elected officials just dont seem to care.
But just mention al-Qaida or the Muslim Brotherhood and those tired old men in Washington get a gleam in their eye and an adrenal rush that animates and energizes them. Its the war on terror they will tell you. Its national security.
I wonder how terrified a mother feels when having lost her home to foreclosure she finds herself trying to care for children while living in a homeless shelter. What does national security mean to anyone who cannot feel safe and secure in their own homes because there are too few police or firemen to protect them?
Where is the outrage on their behalf? And why is it that the only thing this Congress is willing to get excited about is war?

Interviewing data scientists is hard. The tech press sporadically publishes "best" interview questions that are cringe-worthy.
At LinkedIn, we put a heavy emphasis on the ability to think through the problems we work on. For example, if someone claims expertise in machine learning, we ask them to apply it to one of our recommendation problems. And, when we test coding and algorithmic problem solving, we do it with real problems that we've faced in the course of our day jobs. In general, we try as hard as possible to make the interview process representative of actual work.
In this session, I'll offer general principles and concrete examples of how to interview data scientists. I'll also touch on the challenges of sourcing and closing top candidates.
Daniel Tunkelang leads LinkedIn's efforts around query understanding. Before that, he led LinkedIn's product data science team. He previously led a local search quality team at Google and was a founding employee of Endeca (acquired by Oracle in 2011). He has written a textbook on faceted search, and is a recognized advocate of human-computer interaction and information retrieval (HCIR). He has spoken at three previous Strata conferences, and is on the editorial board of the Journal of Big Data. He has a PhD in Computer Science from CMU, as well as BS and MS degrees from MIT.

DERBY – Across the world, families will wake up to a sparkling tree on Christmas morning. Staff from Northpoint Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram have teamed up with Northeast Kingdom Community Acton (NEKCA) to make sure some local children experience the magic every youngster deserves.
The drop boxes for the "Toys for Kids" campaign are at Orleans County area businesses. The last day area residents can drop a new, unwrapped present is Tuesday, Dec. 18. Staff at the dealership, formerly known as Mulkin's, have sponsored the drive for several years. Staff from NEKCA will distribute the presents.Â
"There are a lot of kids who probably would go without Christmas," said Amber Robbins, office assistant, on why the dealership takes part in the collection. "There are a lot of families struggling out there who don't have jobs."
Every child deserves to have a nice Christmas and there is no shame for asking for help, even those families who were well off last year. Last year, the program helped several hundred families. This year, however, NEKCA is low on donations even though it had some gifts leftover from last year.Â
NEKCA particularly would like cologne, makeup, plastic or stuffed farm animals, Barbie dolls, Matchbox cars and Legos. Â
"We love doing it," said Robbins. She said that who can should make a donation. "It's a good thing to donate. You might be the one who needs it next year."
"We try to give back," said Ronney Lyster, owner of Northpoint Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram. The dealership donates to various non-profit organizations and schools. "This is a worthwhile cause and we're glad to do our small part."
There is no minimum or maximum amount people can spend. Parents wishing to take part in the program need to contact NEKCA Parent Child Center on Central Street in Newport City. They will need to fill out an intake form. Everyone who signs up will get something for his or her child.Â
"It's for the children," said Rhonda Cole, teen parent educator for NEKCA. "We want every child to have a good Christmas."
Parents are asked to bring a food donation or a donation of wrapping paper or Scotch tape. NEKCA will distribute toys up until Christmas Eve. Anything left over will go to next year's drive
NEKCA would accept homemade clothes like mittens, but those items should be new and unwrapped, Robbins said. Anyone wishing to donate checks can stop at the dealership or NEKCA office.
Staff from Northpoint Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram collecting presents for area youngsters are owner Ronney Lyster, Sylvie Mathieu, Aline Raboin, Amber Robbins, Virgina Bathalon, Lynne Matten, Lucy Lucas, Bobbi-Jo Andrews and Rachel Twofoot.

Kopi Luwak is Back! Well, Sort of…
If you thought Kopi Luwak was disgusting, wait, there's more! Introducing the Jacu bird into this family of pre-processed coffee should add an interesting avian flair to your mornings. In September of 2006, I wrote about the fascinating Kopi Luwak coffee beans.
An extremely rare coffee due to the fact that the beans are first processed through the intestinal track of a palm civet (Paradoxurus hermaphroditus). This raccoon like animal has a sickly-sweet odor reminiscent of a striped skunk and loves the cherry like fruit that covers the coffee bean. Yes, ingested and deposited shortly thereafter, the beans are ripe for the picking. Once thought as a pest to the crop, these critters are now welcomed friends. Coffee pickers comb the civet's droppings for the berries and remove the husk. These yummy, choice beans are thoroughly washed, in other words, decrappinated, then roasted and ready for the brew. Oh boy, an aromatic brew it would be.
Why leave all of the glory for a palm civet; birds can do an excellent job of picking the ripe coffee cherries too. Whereas the civet in Indonesia eats the lower quality Robusta coffee beans, the Jacu bird is a native of South America and enjoys the high quality Arabica coffee beans of Brazil. The theory is this: if the bird eats only the ripest, tastiest berries then the little piles of beans it excretes for us as a present should all be uniform, high quality, ripe beans. The farms simply collect these piles, wash the beans, and package them up for us.
In the case of the palm civet, they say that it imparts a unique earthy flavor to the passing coffee beans. However, they say the Jacu bird leaves almost no lingering flavor on the beans. Many people who have tasted this coffee say it is a very pleasing cup of a smooth, balanced Brazilian coffee. One swirled it around in his mouth, looking for the hints or subtle notes of bird excrement, and yet found nothing other than the typical, earthy Brazilian flavor. This coffee is only available by special order and so would most likely be freshly roasted to order. It's not just an ordinary crappy cup of coffee.
Jacu Bird by Jose Roitberg
The Kopi Luwak has sold at prices up to $300 per pound, so at around $12 per pound the Jacu bird is passing on the savings. If you are daring, invite some friends over and let them compare some crappy beans to the store bought varieties. Think how good you'll feel as you're helping the wildlife in South America. Sure, we want to support the bird-friendly coffee movement, but is this going to too far?
I have never been game for drinking coffee that has been recycled through a small, furry animal, and I don't think I'm up to trying it through a Jacu bird either. Maybe I'm just not daring enough. A crappuccino anyone? Hmm, which is better: civet dung or bird poop? Or maybe the choice is not so difficult after all. Neither!

Question and answer details
|As-salamu `alaykum. May Allah reward and bless you for your efforts.I am a British revert to the Islamic faith from many years now, alhamdulillah. I want to put two questions to you, insha'Allah. I am very interested in wearing the niqab and I am wondering if you have any proof or signs that wearing niqab, although debatably not fard, is perhaps at least recommended or more rewarded? Do you think that niqab could make a fitnah for Islam in the world because it looks extreme for non-Muslims who see Islam as already oppressive? Also, if it is forbidden in Al-Haram, does this not mean it is disliked? Also, do you think that wearing western clothes for hijab is not the most pious and perhaps it is better to wear a long jilbab, etc., as this only covers the curves really well? My second point is: regarding shaking hands of men. Could it make a fitnah for Islam if I refuse to shake hands with men in Britain as it is seen as hostile and unfriendly?
|Hatem al-Haj
Wa `alaykum as-salamu wa rahmatullahi wa barakatuh.
In the Name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful.
All praise and thanks are due to Allah, and peace and blessings be upon His Messenger.
Firstly, it should be stated that there is a consensus among jurists that no woman is allowed to cause any kind of fitnah (temptation) for men. Hence, every Muslim woman has to give due attention to that keeping in mind not to cause any fitnah of any kind, either by her voice or clothing.
Also, as for the niqab, it is a big controversial issue. So, if you can wear it without causing any troubles, either at home or in the community, it will be great. But if it causes you troubles at work or street, you can do according the other opinions that see the hijab is enough.
Responding to your question, Dr. Hatem Al-Hajj, Dean of Shari`ah Academy of America, stated,
Niqab is not mandatory according to the majority of Fiqh scholars. However, there is a significant opinion that holds its obligation and an agreement on its virtue. Women don't need to wear it under stressful conditions if they don't believe in its obligation.
However, to see some wear it in every community is inspiring, and would even be encouraging to the women who wear hijab not to give their hijab up or compromise on its requirements. If the difficulties encountered with niqab will cause you distress or impede your progress in other aspects of your religious commitment, then you may take it off, if you don't believe in its obligation.
As for hand shaking with the opposite gender, it should be avoided if at all possible. There are ways one may indicate with gestures and body language that they are not open to it. When a particular situation calls for a compromise, out of fear of causing much upset and trouble, then it is hoped that Allah would pardon that.
Allah Almighty knows best.

It is with great sadness that I advise associates and friends of the Australian Biosecurity CRC that Professor Aileen Plant died on 27 March while working in Jakarta. We have been advised that she died of natural causes.
As you are aware, Aileen was Deputy CEO of the AB-CRC based at our Perth node headquarters.
Aileen was a leader in her field of medical epidemiology and a person of great compassion. She was passionate about her work and travelled extensively, often with great risk to herself, to help people and countries in need of her expertise. In recognition of her leadership during the SARS epidemic Aileen was awarded the National Medal of Honour by the Vietnamese Government.
She was a very warm, generous person with a great sense of humour, who made a major contribution to the success of the AB-CRC. I worked closely with Aileen for the last three and a half years in her role as Deputy CEO of the AB-CRC. Despite her huge workload she always made time to respond to my requests for advice and guidance. She was my first source of advice in dealing with difficult issues, always providing wise counsel. Her depth of knowledge of disease, her unique insights and communication skills were immense and will be sorely missed.
On behalf of the AB-CRC I extend our sympathy to her family.

The global market of electrodes for medical devices has been studied on the basis of diagnostic and therapeutic types. The diagnostic segment has been analyzed by prominent categories such as electrocardiography electrodes, electroencephalography electrodes, electroretinography electrodes, fetal scalp electrodes and others. On the other hand, therapeutic segment has been categorized into pacemaker electrodes, TENS electrodes, defibrillator electrodes and electrosurgical electrodes which include guided catheter electrodes used in minimally invasive procedures. In diagnostic product segment market for ECG electrodes is anticipated as fastest growing segment with a CAGR of 3.1%. This is majorly attributed to increase in smokers, hypertension and other cardiovascular diseases prevalence across the globe. In therapeutic electrodes segment the electrosurgical electrodes market is expected to record highest growth rate followed by defibrillator electrodes. The rationale behind this is high precision, less recovery period for electrosurgical electrode devices. Whereas, government initiatives for automated external defibrillator deployment at public places and increase in cardiovascular disease prevalence will offshoot the demand for defibrillator electrodes.
Browse the full Electrodes for Medical Devices Market Report at http://www.transparencymarketresearch.com/electrodes-medical-devices.html
At regional level North America accounted for the largest market share in the year 2012 followed by Europe. This is mainly due to intense government support and technological advancements resulting in broader acceptance of the devices. In the US, the apparent disconnect between discretionary spending and demand for healthcare has protected the medical device market.

Pay whatever price you want for a bundle of indie games and get them for every major platform - PC, Mac, Linux, Android, and iOS. Read more
Funding Unsuccessful
This project's funding goal was not reached on August 17, 2012.
Pay whatever price you want for a bundle of indie games and get them for every major platform - PC, Mac, Linux, Android, and iOS.
About this project
iPayWhatIWant - An Indie Game Bundle For Every Platform
Pay any price you want and you'll receive all the games in the bundle on every major mobile device/computer. No matter how many devices you have and regardless of what they are, I want you to be able to play these games. That means all the following platforms are supported:
Pc, Mac, Linux, Android, and iOS
A special version of each game is being made for iPhone/iPod Touch, and an HD version for the iPad. All the games are DRM free and can be downloaded any amount of times you want.
The Games
These are all games I developed over the past 8 months. I designed them specifically to work well no matter what device you're running. Below you'll see a list of all the games and a brief description:
In Truck Rush you're a truck driver who has to progress through 40+ levels of merciless obstacles.
In Rocket Rush you control a rocket ship that has to blast through 40+ action packed levels.
Playable Demo
Ice Cream Truck puts you in the role of an ice cream delivery person who has to navigate through 30+ crazy levels of obstacles to deliver ice cream to the kids at the end of each level.
Escape your office that has become infested with living computers, desks, and other deadly devices. See if you can get through all 40+ levels alive!
I've designed all these games to be extremely re playable. The games keeps track of your best scores so you can go back to try and master each level.
Pledge anything, get everything
In the spirit of iPayWhatIWant, if you pledge any amount of money to this campaign you'll receive all the games for every platform!
How it works
Once the bundle goes live (which I estimate will happen sometime in November this year). You go to the website http://ipaywhatiwant.com (currently under construction). And type in any amount of money you want to pay from a penny up to anything.
Once you pay for the bundle you will be taken to a download page which will provide you with all the links you need to download all the games for every platform including Android and iOS devices. These links are DRM free, meaning the games are super easy to install on every device and you can download as many times as you want, for as many devices as you want!
Why I need your help
Currently I'm working on my own on this. I'm an independent game developer and while all these games are nearly complete, I need to hire a few people to make this bundle possible.
The most important job I need help with is building the website, while I have built websites in the past this website needs to be extremely secure and make it super easy for you to be able to pay and receive your games with absolutely zero downtime. This is something I estimate will cost $4,000
In addition, while I do have functional betas of all these games on PC, Mac, iOS, and Android I still don't have an Android device of my own to actually test the games with. So I need to buy something that runs Android to test on and also hire somebody to help me get the games officially running on Linux (without the assistance of Wine or emulation). This will cost around $1,000 I estimate.
So that's what your $5,000 will go towards. If we can raise this money I promise I will make it worth your while and I've set up these rewards so that you can get the most out of this process as possible. Your help is extremely appreciated.
Stretch Goals
If we manage to exceed our goal here I've come up with a number of stretch goals:
$10,000 - Content update. The games will all come with an additional 20 levels each! (Ice Cream Truck will have at least 50 levels, Truck Rush, Rocket Rush, Office Escape will all have at least 60 levels).
$20,000 - Support for advanced iOS features such as the retina display on the new iPad and Game Center support with achievements in all the games.
$30,000 - More games. At least one new game for a total of five! This game (or games) will be included as a reward when you pledge as well as when you purchase the bundle when the site goes live.
I have more ideas for stretch goals in addition to these. I would also like to hear your ideas on what you think I should add to this bundle.
Thank you!
Your support really means a lot to me. Please feel free to contact me through this page or via email (max [AT] allgamesallfree.com) with any questions or ideas you might have. Also if you're a developer working on a game for all these platforms let me know if you're interested in jumping on board. Again thanks everyone for your support!
Follow us on Twitter / like us on Facebook for more updates:
Yes! You can find my game Truck Rush on the iOS app store here:
Right now I sell it for 99 cents but it will be included to all pledgers for iOS and all the other platforms along with all the other games.
I even have a free to play version of Ice Cream Truck for you to check out on there! Also, PongOut and a dozen of my classic titles can be found right here on Newgrounds.
