Description EN
The notorious Petworth House of Correction was built in the late 18th century to deliver 'short sharp shocks' of hard labour and solitary confinement to petty criminals. The building no longer exists but if you look on the wall of the parking bay next to the disused Court House you will see re-used bricks inscribed with the names of prisoners.
To log this cache you will need, as the password, the year which is clearly carved into one of the bricks.

"I disapprove of what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it." This paraphrases my opinion of virtual caches, though "to the death" may be a bit too strong .
I don't really like them very much for myself, but I'm pleased that OpenCaching is flexible enough to accomodate them. And I found this one (and two other virtuals) today really just in support of OpenCaching.
For quite some time I thought I would have to DNF it. There were 2 cars parked in the parking area, obscuring parts of the walls and making me nervous about hanging round for too long in very close proximity to them. And one of the 3 walls was partly covered in a large "For Sale" notice - pessimistically I thought it likely that it was covering the required date.
Then I found some badly carved dates that were difficult to make out and gave ambiguous results. I didn't know if these were the required ones or not - the cache page says "clearly carved", but who knows what aother's opinion of "clearly" might be?
But then I found the right one, and yes, it was clear .
Thanks for the cache,Rgds, Andy

Hemochromatosis is a condition that occurs when too much iron builds up in the body. Small amounts of iron are normally stored in the liver and heart, but excess iron will eventually damage these organs.
There are two types of hemochromatosis:
- Hereditary (genetic) hemochromatosis. The most common form of hemochromatosis is passed down through the genes in families.
- Acquired (secondary) hemochromatosis. A person may develop acquired hemochromatosis from having many blood transfusions, certain blood disorders (such as thalassemia), or chronic liver disease or from taking excessive or unnecessary iron supplements. In rare cases, a person may develop hemochromatosis if his or her diet contains too much iron.
Hereditary hemochromatosis is one of the most common genetic disorders in white people, especially those of Northern European descent. Excess iron builds up slowly throughout life. Most people with hemochromatosis notice symptoms when they are age 40 to 60. These symptoms include fatigue, joint pain, weakness, excess urination, and weight loss.
If hemochromatosis is recognized early, it can be treated before other problems start. It is treated by removing excess iron from the blood, either by removing blood from the body (phlebotomy) or by taking a medicine (chelating agent) that binds to and removes iron from the body. Hereditary hemochromatosis requires treatment throughout a person's life. Acquired hemochromatosis does not need further treatment after the condition has been corrected.

"By boat, if you can afford it:))" Monte-Carlo Transportation Tip by aliante1981
Monte-Carlo Transportation: 23 reviews and 45 photos
To get to the Principality of Monaco's capital (and the only city) - the fabulous Monte-Carlo - by boat or more likely by a yacht, especially your own one, you must be really, but really rich. What with all those yachts one sees in the port. Still, the views must be magnificent, probably the best ones you can get approaching Monaco. And at the very least rivaling the ones you get from above as the road (carrying you with it) climbs down into the city.
This tip is actually mid-getting there and mid-must see. I do not actually know why I put it in this section. I wanted to think how to recreate the views you could see from getting by boat. So if you need this particular tip not only as a practical thing, but as aesthetical, too, you might go to the furthest end of the pier and get the same effect free of charge.

Tensions rise over Afghan civilian deaths
KABUL, Afghanistan An investigation into claims that international troops killed scores of civilians in northeast Afghanistan escalated into a feud Tuesday between President Hamid Karzai and senior U.S. military officials who cited a report that Afghan parents have been known to discipline children by burning their hands and feet.
Karzai spokesman Waheed Omar described comments made by Rear Adm. Gregory Smith, director of communications for the U.S.-led coalition, also known as International Security Assistance Force, as being "outrageous, insulting and racist." He demanded a clarification.
The flap started during a discussion at the presidential palace about claims that NATO forces killed about 60 civilians during a four-day operation in Kunar province - a charge that has been contested by the international coalition.
Media reports and television footage broadcast after the claims showed severely injured children and others with burns on their faces, hands and feet - yet is was unclear if they were injured in military operations.
The Washington Post, quoting unidentified individuals who attended the palace meeting, reported Tuesday that Gen. David Petraeus, the top NATO commander in Afghanistan, had suggested that Afghans might have intentionally burned their own children to exaggerate claims of civilian casualties.
The coalition vehemently denied the report.
"Gen. Petraeus never said that children's hands and feet were purposely burned by their families in order to create a CIVCAS (civilian casualty) event," Smith said. "Rather, he said that the injuries to the children appeared inconsistent with the types of munitions used and that the burns to their hands and feet may have been the result of discipline sometimes handed out to Afghan children. Regrettably this is customary among some Afghan fathers as a way of dealing with children who misbehave."
Omar said that Karzai was demanding an explanation.
"The president was extremely annoyed by the comments made by Adm. Smith that Afghans boil the hands and feet of their children to discipline them and we find these comments outrageous, insulting and racist," Omar told The Associated Press.
"Afghans love their children and to suggest that Afghans boil the hands and feet of their children suggests a lack of information or ... someone's feeling for Afghans. We want NATO and the ISAF leadership to take serious note of these comments and the president will ask for clarification from ISAF in this," he said.
Omar added that "on the one side, Afghan children and women are killed brutally by terrorists and on the other side they are insulted in this manner."
Although relatively unheard of, there have been some such incidents reported in the past. A 2009 human rights report issued by the U.S. State Department said that "in extreme examples of child abuse, observers reported several instances of deliberately burned children in Paktia (province); the children sustained burns after their parents submerged them in boiling water."
Earlier in the day, a government delegation, sent by Karzai, met with tribal elders from the remote Ghazi Abad district, and other provincial officials to investigate the claims of civilian casualties.
Nawrdin Safi, a provincial council member from Kunar who attended the meeting, said tribal elders repeated their allegation that "more than 60 people have been killed in the four days of the operation and around 50 of that number are civilians, including women and children."
He said that the delegation was discussing a trip to Ghazi Abad.
"We have to go personally to the site to find out what's really going on and what number is correct, and how many of those killed are really civilian. ... The real investigation will be at the site," Safi said, adding that the delegation would also examine grave sites. "Hopefully we will be able to determine exactly how many have been killed."

Museum Exhibit of Jews in Germany Raises Interest, Ire
Grieshaber, Kirsten, The Charleston Gazette (Charleston, WV)
BERLIN - "Are there still Jews in Germany?" "Are the Jews a chosen people?"
Nearly 70 years after the Holocaust, there is no more sensitive an issue in German life as the role of Jews. With fewer than 200,000 Jews among Germany's 82 million people, few Germans born after World War II know any Jews or much about them.
To help educate postwar generations, an exhibit at the Jewish Museum features a Jewish man or woman seated inside a glass box for two hours a day through August to answer visitors' questions about Jews and Jewish life. The base of the box asks: "Are there still Jews in Germany?"
"A lot of our visitors don't know any Jews and have questions they want to ask," said museum official Tina Luedecke. "With this exhibition we offer an opportunity for those people to know more about Jews and Jewish life."
But not everybody thinks putting a Jew on display is the best way to build understanding and mutual respect.
Since the exhibit - "The Whole Truth, everything you wanted to know about Jews" - opened this month, the "Jew in the Box," as it is popularly known, has drawn sharp criticism within the Jewish community - especially in the city where the Nazis orchestrated the slaughter of 6 million Jews until Adolf Hitler's defeat in 1945.
"Why don't they give him a banana and a glass of water, turn up the heat and make the Jew feel really cozy in his glass box," prominent Berlin Jewish community figure Stephan Kramer told The Associated Press. "They actually asked me if I wanted to participate. But I told them I'm not available."
The exhibit is reminiscent of Holocaust architect Adolf Eichmann sitting in a glass booth at the 1961 trial in Israel which led to his execution. And it's certainly more provocative than British actress Tilda Swinton sleeping in a glass box at a recent performance at the Museum of Modern Art in New York.
Eran Levy, an Israeli who has lived in Berlin for years, was horrified by the idea of presenting a Jew as a museum piece, even if to answer Germans' questions about Jewish life.
"It's a horrible thing to do - completely degrading and not helpful," he said. "The Jewish Museum absolutely missed the point if they wanted to do anything to improve the relations between Germans and Jews."
But several of the volunteers, including both German Jews and Israelis living in Berlin, said the experience in the box is little different from what they go through as Jews living in the country that produced the Nazis.
"With so few of us, you almost inevitably feel like an exhibition piece," said volunteer Leeor Englander. "Once you've been 'outed' as a Jew, you always have to be the expert and answer all questions regarding anything related to religion, Israel, the Holocaust and so on."
Museum curator Miriam Goldmann, who is Jewish, believes the exhibit's provocative "in your face" approach is the best way to overcome the emotional barriers and deal with a subject that remains painful for both Jews and non-Jews.
"We wanted to provoke, that's true, and some people may find the show outrageous or objectionable," Goldmann said. …

There are thousands of carbon calculators out there on the internet, all giving different results to the same inputs, largely due to the different assumptions, methodology and data adopted and the targeted level of accuracy. WWF wanted to produce a carbon footprint calculator that was closely matched to the lifestyles and facilities available for Hong Kong residents giving users a first look into their carbon footprint and helping them make a first stab at reducing it. Many carbon calculators that are built in other countries are not appropriate because, for example, they are applicable to cooler climates, or because the power stations use different fuels. The WWF Climateers specifically uses data gathered in Hong Kong to build a carbon calculator that reflects Hong Kong living.
Our goal has been to create a simple yet decent enough calculator that can be completed in less than five minutes in a coffee shop. The latest version, launched in early 2009, covers more aspects of our daily life than most Asian carbon calculators, including emissions from water usage, public buses and waste.
The calculator totals the amount of carbon dioxide (CO2) produced from different lifestyle activities, with the exception of the aviation footprint which is more complex. CO2 is the main greenhouse gas responsible for global warming.
The simplest cases are when we buy fuel directly, for instance buying petrol for cars or gas for our apartments. Different fuels produce very different quantities of CO2, for instance liquefied petroleum gas is far cleaner than diesel fuel.
It becomes more complex when we talk about emissions from electricity. HK's power companies use a different mix of coal, gas and nuclear (and even a tiny amount of wind), and have power plants of different ages and with varying efficiencies. Also, electricity usage is highly seasonal, for example because air conditioning is used less in winter, and we make an estimate of how electricity usage changes through the seasons. So once we know the date, your location (therefore your electricity producer) and your electricity bill, we can work out with a good accuracy the CO2 contribution from your electricity consumption for that month and make an estimate for the whole year.
More approximations were involved when estimating emissions for people without their household bills. We started with figures released by the Hong Kong Government Electrical and Mechanical Services Department (EMSD) that provide a breakdown of how energy is used in HK's homes-- for instance, the proportion of home energy that is used in lighting, air conditioning and heating water. We make some judgments about how the average energy use changes with home size and number of people, for instance, that the energy used in lighting increases with the area of the apartment, but that hot water use per individual is the same whatever size apartment you live in. We then apply assumptions about the fuels used in the generation of this energy to derive the carbon footprint estimate.
Although water usage accounts for a relatively small part of an individual's carbon footprint, we have decided to include it in the calculation to highlight the importance of this resource. In fact, the process of getting water to your home is more complex in Hong Kong than in many countries. Around three quarters of the fresh water is piped from the mainland, and then treated and pumped around a series of reservoirs before coming through the taps. All these processes use energy. With energy usage data and average household consumptions of fresh and sea water, published by the Water supplies Department, we benchmark users' water usage habit against the average and produce an estimated footprint figure.
The major energy impacts of household waste are: useful sources of energy that can be recycled are thrown away, forcing new product to be manufactured and the release or collection of greenhouse gasses from landfill sites. The first of these is most important, and by asking how much of three major trash grouped people recycle, combined with values for the energy required to manufacture products from new, we can estimate the energy savings from recycling.
Rubbish buried in landfill sites slowly decomposes, releasing greenhouse gasses which need to be collected if they are not to contribute to climate change. According to the Environmental Protection Department's Waste facilities Group, most landfill gas is currently being captured and flared. Ideally the gas is processed and reused, but flaring it is still a big improvement. Lacking adequate data needed to reasonably estimate the volume of greenhouse gas produced from a typical tonne of domestic rubbish, the current calculator does not deal with emissions from landfills.
For all the public transport (ferry, bus, minibus and MTR), due to the complexity of the routing and pricing mechanism used by different service providers, we have adopted a simplified approach taking the total energy usage and divided it by the time or cost of the journey based upon data supplied by the companies respectively.
For air travel we break flights down by flight length in order to make it easier for people to remember and enter which trips they have taken. These flight lengths are then multiplied by a standardised figure for CO2 emissions per passenger km. In addition the aviation calculator uses a multiplier (a 'Radiative Forcing Index' of 2.7) to reflect the fact that the greenhouse gas emissions from aviation cause more damage at altitude, than if they were released at the ground level. Because of the long distances involved and the multiplier factor, people who fly a lot will find that aviation is often the dominant part of their carbon footprint.
The whole point of finding out one's carbon footprint is that one can take relevant actions to reduce our impact on climate change. Through the interactive pledges presented by the carbon calculator at the end of the journey, users can choose what actions they plan to take and to what extent they want to take up those carbon reducing lifestyle changes. Together, all users' pledges would amount to a collective carbon emissions reduction per year, convertible to carbon storage capacity of trees, showing how cumulated small actions can make a big impact!
By registering on Climateers, users will be able to save their carbon footprint whenever they have re-calculated the latest carbon footprint and track their footprint trends. With a Climateers account, the emissions spread among your home, transport and air travel and your projected footprint reduction from your pledged actions will also be kept in your account history. You can recall the saved data through logging in.
In addition to the approaches calculating personal emissions in the home, for travel and for flights the calculator adds on 2.7 tonnes of CO2 per year to everyone's footprint. The Hong Kong add-on represents emissions from HK's industrial, commercial and government sectors that provide goods and services to HK's people, but still leave a carbon footprint. For example shopping malls, government offices, construction and other sources outside the individual's control are all included in this figure. We include this figure because we want to capture the fact that not everything is covered by the carbon calculator. As this project expands we hope to provide more data about other parts of people's lives that carry a carbon footprint - and where they can take action.

lol I love that "proof" especially because we have such a good understanding now of how humans created the banana as we know it by breeding bananas over thousands of years to get the good traits out of them. It's like someone saying that the eye is proof of god because it is so perfect. Bitch I have piss poor vision and have to wear contacts to function in a normal fashion, ain't nothing perfect about that.

That would be a very difficult mod to make, and not being able to see behind you in Dark Souls would be quite the disadvantage... but it would be quite fun as well.
Imagine the cutscenes being remade into 1st person as well for the oculus: and you actually see Manus' hand pull you through to the DLC, or the Raven grabing and carrying you off... Maybe program in some blood that actually leave stains on the walls as well.
Now combine all of this with the Virtuix Omni as well, and it would be Beyond the realm of mortals in how fun it would be!

Thats what you like.
These fellows just happen to fantasize about ponies. Note that its a fantasy. Most are intelligent enough to separate it from reality. Why does it matter what one man holds in his mind? Maybe they think theres some "fuckin shit wrong" with you, not being attracted to the ponies. Its just second nature to them. Your second nature is to go after human girls and criticize those who dont. You, my friend, are an asshole.

The teen pregnancy rate in America is much smaller now than it was in the 50's. Kids were always having sex, even when the media had enough moral fibre to weave a tuxedo. The age when girls were married (and consummating) in the medieval ages was 14-16. Humans are just naturally filthy dirty little sluts and we wouldn't dominate the planet unless we were.

well yea i mean most of popular culture makes it very clear to young girls that how smart and hardworking and talented you are doesn't mean shit if you aren't attractive and sexy. no wonder they decide that school isn't worth anything because they get the message very early on that they need to be sexual to get attention.

I'm new to the realm of setting up a APC Smart-UPS RT 8000VA UPS with a management network card (AP9618). The project calls for the upgrade of the firmware for the network card to the newest and greatest. It also calls for the Powerchute Business Software to be installed with notifications setup per email for temperature, shutdown, and battery low. I know I'll have to use the serial cable to flash the firmware and install the software on one server 2003 box. Also on that server I'll have to install the software and setup the GUI (IP address) interface.
Whats confusing the most is the whole process, and steps to use without taking down the network, which would be very bad. In flashing the firmware does it take down the UPS? Do i have to run BOOTP commands to setup the network card? Also no agents will be used on any of the VWware OS's and no SNMP trap will be used.

Villa Ladies set for Villa Park clash against Coventry
It has been a terrific season for Joe Hunt's team, who won the League Cup as well as having their application for a place in the FA Women's Super League accepted.
The Ladies were presented with the League Cup trophy by first team star Ciaran Clark at a packed out Villa Park at half-time during Saturday's Barclays Premier League clash against Chelsea.
Now they are set to return to B6 to play their penultimate game of the league season.
Villa Ladies - captained by Dani Petrovic - will be keen to bounce back after a disappointing defeat to champions elect Sunderland on Sunday.
The claret and blues earned a 3-1 league victory over Coventry earlier in the season and have also defeated them in the League Cup and County Cup.
The two sides have met five times this term with Villa winning three and the Sky Blues winning two.
Make sure you get down to Villa Park to support Villa Ladies.
The match kicks off at 7pm and entry to the stadium is free.

Foreign Bodies in Ear and Nose
Michael Crawford, M.D. Otolaryngologist
These foreign bodies are incredible sources of infection of unusual bacteria and funguses that then become very difficult to treat.
At what age is this most common?
More commonly, we see more 3-5 years of age. Children, for some reason or another will be trying to sniff something and they somehow get it into their nostril. "My ear itched and suddenly it fell in." Most of the time children will deny that they ever did it at all. "What's wrong with your ear?" "Nothing."
What objects are commonly found?
We find feathers, nails, coins, beads, stones, bugs. Periodically, we will find a cockroach or some other night bug in an external canal. What is the most difficult object to remove? A safety pin, especially if it has lodged open. Depending on which way that sharp point is, we have specific instruments that grab it, close it, and remove it.
Should parents try to remove the object themselves?
I would really emphasize that mothers and fathers not try to remove these by themselves. If you get the child wiggling and you have not used the proper tools to remove them, then you push them farther back. Bring your foreign body and your child to the ENT doctor to have him do it.
How can parents prevent this from happening?
You need to watch your kids and make sure they don't do it and certainly if you see a nose that's running over a process of weeks and it's always one side, think of a foreign body.
Foreign bodies can create unusual bacteria infections in the ear and nose. Dr. Michael Crawford, Board Certified Otolaryngologist at Boys Town Ear, Nose & Throat Institute, explains what objects are commonly found, what's the most difficult object to remove and why parents shouldn't try to remove these objects themselves.

Tennis Lambda was born by our founder Yvan German. During a volleyball tournament in Toronto, he visited one of his friends who was a member of the recreational gay tennis league in Toronto. The idea was then launched to start a friendly competition between the two cities similar to the Davis Cup.
As time passed by Yvan noticed that there was a growing interest in Montreal to start up a gay tennis league. In the summer of 1992, Montreal Tennis Lambda, a non-profit organization was born with an aim to promote the sport and to create a place for fellow tennis loving gays to meet up.
In 1994, La Coupe de la Reine was founded and continues to be held every Labour Day Weekend. In 1999, Montreal joined the Gay and Lesbian Tennis Alliance (GLTA). La Coupe de la Reine continues to grow and could not have been done without the help of the support of Terry Brennan who shared the organizing responsibilities with Yvan for many years in the early years of the tournament.
In addition to its tournaments, Tennis Lambda organizes a weekly outdoor recreational league in the summer and a winter indoor league.

No one rode rigid and i'm glad they didn't. And front suspension IS a must on some sections of that course!
No one rode rigid and i'm glad they didn't. And front suspension IS a must on some sections of that course!
Wouldn't have a clue. I'm guessing just over 30km/hr.Originally Posted by The Selector
I did not see one rigid in that race.Originally Posted by badsac
Why are you glad?Originally Posted by blue_neon
A must? What do you think people did before suspension? Just ride around on the road?
Because they would have struggled on a rigid on a long race without it.Originally Posted by badsac
For an event that will qualify you into the Commenwealth Games, yes.A must?
Not at all, i'm not saying anything about the past, i'm talking about this particular race.What do you think people did before suspension? Just ride around on the road?
Sorry to offend you, but it would be silly in my opinion for any of these pro races to choose a rigid fork over a suspension fork in a race like this. They choose it for a reason.

I'm not offended. Just an "old school" fella trying to work out why I'm slower around my local XC loop on my new xtc2 than I was on my old rigid. And reasoning that if the track is smooth enough, which that track looks like it could have been (just from the images), would anyone do an XC race on a rigid anymore. Or are all you kids just to soft to take a bit of jiggling anymore?
And just wondering if the reason they choose suspension is just because it's the done thing. Thinking outside the box and going back to a rigid could give someone an advantage depending on the track.
I doubt if anyone riding the selection race for the Commonwealth Games would ride FS just because it's the "done thing". Their coaches might possibly express themselves with the understated politeness for which Aussies are renowned. And relatively smooth or not, at their speeds, the hands, wrists and arms would take a fair old hammering on rigidOriginally Posted by badsac
Exactly what atbman says, 7 laps on an extremly hard 7km course on a rigid would put your body under a lot of strain. Especially on the rock garden where you roll down just like rolling down steps, doing that on a rigid again and again while racing is going to put a lot of strain on some of your body parts!
As we just said above...Originally Posted by sS-bEn
Meh. Just ride the bumps. Rock gardens aren't a drama on rigids. It's not like they're freeriding or anything. Look at the limitations of their bikes. Wish you had of taken some pictures of these boulders they were running over so I could judge for myself.Originally Posted by blue_neon
Its more try riding 6km of XC, very difficult and in some parts slow without these obstacles. Then if to ride 7 laps without stopping isn't enough, i'm sure the agrevation of bumps and a rough ride + the amount of strain it would put on your body + the amount of leg strength they would need to shock absorb (you need to absorb the shock whether it be front fork susp or your legs). Of course you could ride it rigid, but why would you when you have the choice of a Fox 80mm front fork?
Yeah, but that awesome feeling of your finger joints separating from the constant jarring means you wouldn't be focussing on your burning lungs and legs.
Nah, just stiring. I know there's no way anyone would ride rigids if they had a choice. I'm just pissed cause I've gone from an ok rider on my old thing to a bum on the new bike. I'll sort out how to get on with the fork one day.

Update on Greenville, SC Real Estate Market
For all the accolades we can give downtown Greenville's commercial growth and its transformation over the past decade into a destination city, when we review the real estate options for housing near the city limits, we must admit, this is an attribute of Greenville that could be improved on. Greenville, South Carolina will continue to be a draw given the incredible civic planning of this city, but challenges exist with respect to the Upstate city's residential real estate offerings. One of those challenges is the availability of housing within walking distance of the downtown area in terms of selection and pricing.
United Van Lines Reports South Carolina Is 2nd Most Inbound State
Known for its "smiling faces, beautiful places", according to the Palmetto State's slogan, popular retirement destinations in South Carolina include well-known places like Charleston, Hilton Head Island, Bluffton, and Beaufort. Beautiful beaches, abundant water recreational choices, a plethora of championship golf courses, friendly people and a temperate climate are just some of the reasons that make these southeast South Carolina destinations so attractive.
An Update On Cherokee Valley Development Near Greenville, SC
Here's a community in our opinion that offers quality amenities, a sense of community among its residents, and certain sections of the development offer beautiful mountain views.

It is located less than 30 minutes north from the Upstate city, 20 minutes south of Hendersonville and about an hour south of Asheville, North Carolina.
Greenville, SC: A Top Choice For Retirement Relocation
Greenville, SC has earned many accolades over the years, frequently ending up on "Best Of" lists.

Five Skills of Emotional Fitness
There are five commonly regarded skills to emotional fitness: self awareness, self regulation, self motivation, empathy, and relationship skills. Since knowledge of the components of these skills can be a first step in evaluating and improving your emotional fitness, three key aspects of each are outlined below. But first, it helps to recognize what emotions are. Emotions are immediate feelings in response to something, while moods are more long-term; both of these can be at least partially managed by the person experiencing them, whereas temperaments are natural dispositions that people are born with and have limited capacity to change. There are eight emotions, and all other "feelings" are combinations of these: anger, fear, joy, anticipation, disgust, sadness, surprise, and acceptance.
Are you emotionally healthy? Life, no matter one's circumstances, is challenging. Every person experiences difficulties in life that have emotional impact. How we internalize, respond to, and use life events greatly influences our emotional health. Our emotional health not only affects us, but it particularly affects those around us. A person who is an emotional mess can cause great suffering to his/her family and can hinder the proper emotional and psychological development of future generations. Modern society often gives far too little attention to teaching the skills needed for good emotional health, and thus "dysfunctional" families are all too common and even glorified in the media. Some people wear their dysfunctionality as a badge of honor, but in truth, we all would prefer to have internal peace and healthy relationships. However, many people lack the knowledge and skills to make that happen.
There are five commonly regarded skills to emotional fitness: self awareness, self regulation, self motivation, empathy, and relationship skills. Since knowledge of the components of these skills can be a first step in evaluating and improving your emotional fitness, three key aspects of each are outlined below. But first, it helps to recognize what emotions are. Emotions are immediate feelings in response to something, while moods are more long-term; both of these can be at least partially managed by the person experiencing them, whereas temperaments are natural dispositions that people are born with and have limited capacity to change. There are eight emotions, and all other "feelings" are combinations of these: anger, fear, joy, anticipation, disgust, sadness, surprise, and acceptance. Emotions occur not only in the brain but are chemical realities throughout the body. Thus, your emotions have real physical impact on your body and are not purely mental.
Emotional Self Awareness
- A person who is self aware has the ability to identify what (s)he is feeling. To build your skill in this area, you must begin by consciously asking yourself how you truly feel about things and avoid pushing the feelings away or ignoring them. Which of the above eight are you feeling, and in what combination?
- Self awareness requires the ability to understand the cause and effect around your emotions. Again, this requires reflection. If you are feeling sad today, why are you feeling that way? Because you feel that way, what is happening to you physically, mentally, spiritually, socially, etc.? The more precise you can be in the answer, the more insight you will gain.
- A self aware person is able to recognize and create balance between different aspects of his life for emotional health. That is, as much as possible, he does not let work consume him, nor does he let socializing with friends impinge on his responsibilities, nor does he let either of these prevent the development of his personal interests like hobbies, physical fitness, spirituality, etc.
Emotional Self Regulation
- People who can self regulate are able to recognize when they need help and are able to pursue it in positive ways. They do not place impossible burdens on themselves and create a martyr/victim mentality, nor do they make themselves consistently dependent on others.
- Self regulators have the ability to wait. They can delay a reaction until they have time to think a situation through and decide what reaction makes the most sense. Further, they can exercise delay of gratification for longer-term benefits.
- Self regulators also have a sense of humor. They can avoid taking every situation too seriously and learn to lighten emotional loads by finding humor in difficulty and in their own shortcomings. They do not use humor to hurt, but instead use it to brighten moods and help others.
Self Motivation
- Self motivators can keep going after a setback. They do not allow obstacles or negativity to prevent them from forward progress. A job loss, failure, health problem, etc., will be turned into lessons and positives by a true self motivator.
- Self motivators can set and work toward realistic goals. They do not set nearly impossible dreams as the measure of success, especially without skills, resources, and concrete steps on how to get there. They do not expect goals to just happen without working to achieve them, nor do they fail to set goals for themselves and just wander through life aimlessly.
- Self motivators are hopeful and grateful people. In dark hours, they remain optimistic for a better tomorrow and hold on to the belief that things can change and they can make a difference. They acknowledge good in all situations and express appreciation for their blessings.
- Empathetic people show concern and care for others. Parents can do a lot to teach empathy by modeling it and by questioning youth about how others must feel in a given situation and how they can express concern and care for others.
- They show thoughtful and kind behavior toward others. They are not so lost in their own problems and work that they are oblivious to others' difficulties. They transform their awareness and care for others into some kind of action, even if it be just a smile, a kind word, an unexpected good deed, etc.
- Empathetic people can recognize emotions in others. For some people this comes naturally, but others must practice it. In your next staff meeting, can you tell who is happy and who is disgusted by the boss's proposal, even if they say nothing?
Relationship Skills
- People with good relationship skills can receive emotion from others, both positive and negative. They can receive someone's anger or love and respond in healthy ways. They do not allow emotions of others to control their own emotions, i.e., they are not reactionary; they are able to reason through appropriate responses and choose ones that achieve desired outcomes.
- Those with good relationship skills can honestly but appropriately express their own emotions. They are not disingenuous by hiding or misrepresenting their feelings to others, but they control the expression of their feelings to be appropriate to context.
- Those with good relationship skills have the ability to genuinely apologize, compromise, problem solve, and give compliments to others.
Nearly everyone has some room for improvement in their emotional skills. Knowledge is the first step; hopefully the above, upon self-reflection, gives some insight into your own strengths and weaknesses emotionally and what you can do to start improving. Additionally, this information can guide your social decision-making. For example, if one is choosing a college roommate or a spouse, having insight into his/her emotional fitness may be very important in the decision making process. It may be unwise to tie one's futures to an emotionally dysfunctional person.

This is a brilliant article very interesting. <br />What would make a great follow on article is how to be around those whose emotional intelligence needs much attention without crossing boundaries that Allah (swt), the prophet & the Holy Imams (sawas) put in place in terms of good morals and manners.

Additional Information
This is a Group Loan
In a group loan, each member of the group receives an individual loan but is part of a larger group of individuals. The group is there to provide support to the members and to provide a system of peer pressure, but groups may or may not be formally bound by a group guarantee. In cases where there is a group guarantee, members of the group are responsible for paying back the loans of their fellow group members in the case of delinquency or default.
Kiva's Field Partners typically feature one borrower from a group. The loan description, sector, and other attributes for a group loan profile are determined by the featured borrower's loan. The other members of the group are not required to use their loans for the same purpose.

Human rights activists to be honored by Oklahoma City National Memorial and Museum
The story of a Pakistani father and daughter who will be honored on May 13 by officials from the Oklahoma City National Memorial & Museum is one everyone should hear, particularly young girls, a museum executive said.
Human rights activist Ziauddin Yousafzai will accept the 2013 Reflections of Hope Award at a luncheon hosted at the National Cowboy & Western Heritage Museum. Yousafzai will receive the award on behalf of himself and his daughter and fellow activist, Malala Yousafzai.
The family garnered international attention last October when a member of the Taliban shot Malala, 15, in the head at close range on a bus ride home from school. The Taliban targeted Malala for speaking out against the organization's efforts to ban girls from going to school in Pakistan. Her father, Ziauddin, founded and directs the Khushal Public School in Pakistan, an all-girls institution. He has also been involved with Swat Qaumi Jirga, an anti-Taliban council in the Swat Valley area of Pakistan.
Despite the assassination attempt, the family continues to advocate for the educational rights of girls and that makes them a natural fit for the Reflections of Hope Award that comes with a $25,000 gift to be used toward fighting terrorism, said Kari Watkins, Oklahoma City National Memorial & Museum executive director.
"They represent hope in the midst of political violence," Watkins said. "Malala has marched on. She has persevered. She literally stood in the face of terror and was able to bring hope to other girls who wanted to go to school, and she made that option available to them when many others said it was too dangerous or too scary."
Watkins said she hopes several school-age girls will attend the luncheon to hear more about the story of Malala, who has regained her eyesight and ability to walk and talk since the shooting, and is now attending school in Birmingham, England. Malala will either send video remarks or join the luncheon through a live webcast.
"She represents all the things we would want to teach a young lady here in the United States," Watkins said. "She demonstrates the importance of believing in something, taking a stand and being willing to be strong enough to keep moving forward. That's the kind of determination we want young ladies to see, and to realize the strength they can bring to the table."
The education of girls is critical to the advancement of our global society, and Malala's story is one that can serve as an inspiration to all girls aspiring to achieve their personal goals through education, said Jill Irvine, head of the Women and Gender Studies Department at the University of Oklahoma. Irvine also teaches "Women and World Politics" and "Gender, War and Peace."
"Not only is educating girls the right thing to do, but research shows that it is incredibly productive in terms of moving developing societies forward," Irvine said. "It's not just girls that benefit from their education, but ultimately, everyone does. What's so lovely about the Yousafzais' story is that it is a family story. In this fight for equality, men are crucial, and it is important to remember the support Malala received from her family, particularly her father, which gave her a strong base from which to work and probably helps her to be so courageous."
The luncheon will begin at 11:30 a.m. on May 13, and single tickets are $168. Ziauddin's appearance at the ceremony will represent his first trip to the United States since the Taliban's assassination attempt on Malala last year.

- " Ideal place to stay if you're competing in the Berlin Marathon. Convenient for travel from abroad and to the race on race day. Breakfast options are good enough for both pre race and a feast the next day. En-suite facilities decent - always good to have a great shower. But lastly, if booking a twin room make sure you like the person you're sharing with - you'll be sleeping close to each other! So glad my mate pulled out of the marathon and didn't go! "
