I am not a scientist of any sort. I don't know how or why certain phobia's develop in people so I am not going to sit here and try to speculate why certain people are scared of things that other people laugh at. I just know that seeing fear in other peoples eyes can be a hysterical thing.
If you are anything like me, when you get high you get paranoid but these people have your paranoia beaten. It's one thing to be afraid of cops in the rear view mirror but it's a completely different thing to watch your back for anyone carrying a piece of fruit because it is going to get you. I normally don't encourage laughing at the misfortune of other but these people are very funny. Actually, who am I kidding? ALL I do is laugh at the misfortune of others.
Scared Of Balloons?
She probably had a traumatic situation as a kid where she lost her balloon and had to watch it float off. I was always scared of that happening to me too.
Pickle Phobia
Are you serious? pickles?
This one is fear of clowns. I am scared of clowns too. Ahhhhhh!!!
Mouse Phobia
I am not 100% sure that she has a mouse phobia but based on her reaction, it's hard to make any other argument.
Fear of Peaches
Peaches? Pickles? This post is making me hungry. I will have the pickles and peaches at separate times. They probably wouldn't go that well together.
Fear Of Cotton Balls
This lady can't be serious. I recurring dream of a cotton ball man trying to kill her by putting cotton balls in her mouth. That sounds like a deeper issue than just the cotton balls.
Fear of Chickens
This might be the funniest one. I love chicken way too much to fear it.

In your kit you should get:
2 5 gallon buckets
2 Grit Guard Inserts
Quality Soap (Meguiars Gold Class is great)
Quality Wash sponge or mitt
Quality Waffle Weave Drying towel
Glass Cleaner (there are a lot of good ones, just make sure to get one without ammonia in it)
Tire Shine (I would go with something water based, using something like Armor All could lead to your tires turning brown)
Interior Protectant (again thee are many, but stay away from anything silicone based)
Leather Dressing (Leather Masters makes a great kit to care for leather if you have it)
Quality wax or sealant for paint and wheels (Meguairs Ultimate wax is easy to use and available local, we use 4 Star Sealant in the shop and it looks great and lasts for 6 months+)
With that list, depending on the products you choose, you're looking at $75-$150 for everything. A small price to pay to keep your car looking great and preventing it from getting swirled up in the process!
Eventually you can get a clay bar and buffing compounds, but for a new car you shouldn't need them at all. The most important part is to use good techniques and common sense so you don't end up putting more swirls into your paint. For example, you wouldn't want to wash the bottom of your car where all the dirt is built up before you wash the roof.
Hope that helps, and if you would like any specific product recommendations please let me know!

Just received the email for those that havent seen it yet (confirming what k2737 stated above)
Dear Fans,
I hope you are having a good week and you had a chance to read the letter I recently sent out regarding feedback from our Panthers pregame fan forums.
As I said in that letter, the comments and feedback I have received from our fans has been tremendous and we have already begun making enhancements and changes to some of the recommendations our fans have suggested.
In that vein, fans have suggested that we create different benefits in exchange for the concert series. We have decided in addition to the season seat owner concert series we will include new Panthers-centric renewal benefits as added value to our most loyal and passionate fans. Those benefits are as follows:
- Panthers Bonus Tickets: Full season seat owners will receive four bonus tickets per seat in their account, half season seat owners will receive two bonus tickets per seat and mini season seat owners will receive one bonus ticket per seat. Bonus tickets are available for non-blackout games only during the 2013-14 season on the same level of the season tickets, based on availability.
- Panthers 20th Season Commemorative Pin: All season seat owners will receive a Panthers 20th Season Commemorative pin and a special pin will also be created for original 93 season seat owners, 10 year and 5 year season seat owners.
- Panthers Season Ticket Card: All season seat accounts that choose the digital ticket option will receive a Season Ticket Card uploaded with the games in their ticket plan. Each fan will receive one Season Ticket Card per seat. Similar to paper tickets, the Season Ticket Card can be scanned at any of our entrance gates, and will grant you access to the BB&T Center.
Due to the length of time it take to verify account details and with the addition of the new added renewal benefits, we have extended the renewal deadline to Friday, March 22. You can contact your representative today to discuss your renewal at 954-835-7285 or renew online today at
or fax your invoice to 954-835-7200. Please renew by March 22 to ensure you receive all of these incredible benefits.
Thank you once again for your loyalty and support and have a wonderful rest of the week.
Best regard,
Michael R. Yormark

Getting rid of that nasty flickering
This is a follow up to my post asking about how to make the notebook
stop flickering while entering large sequences of equations. I've
found a decent workaround: Create a new scratch notebook and enter a
chunk of the document in it until the flickering starts to get
annoying. Then cut and paste the chunk into the other notebook.

Although spousal support predicts the success of a smoker's cessation efforts, "social support" interventions based on teaching partners better support skills have had consistently disappointing results. In this Stage I (treatment development) study we examined the potential utility of a family-consultation (FAMCON) intervention based on family-systems theory.
Specifically, in this Phase-I study we developed, standardized, and pilot tested a systemic, couple-focused treatment for change-resistant smokers based on the assumption that a smoker's marital and family relationships play a key role in whether he or she continues to smoke.
The intervention provides up to 10 sessions of "family consultation" over 2-5 months to single- or dual-smoker couples in which at least one partner continued to smoke despite having lung disease, heart disease, or multiple cardiac risk factors.
The treatment focuses on the immediate social context of smoking, aiming both to interrupt well-intended "solutions" that ironically feed back to keep smoking going, and to help clients realign important relationships in ways not organized around tobacco use.
Participants were 20 couples in which one partner (the primary smoker) continued to smoke despite having or being at significant risk for heart or lung disease.
Results are promising. The 50% rate of stable abstinence achieved by primary smokers over 6 months (with 63% abstinence rates for secondary smokers) exceeds benchmark success rates reported in the literature for other, comparably intensive interventions, suggesting that a couple-focused intervention different in concept and format from social-support interventions tested in the past may hold promise for health-compromised smokers. The12-month cessation rates were 40% for primary smokers and 63% for secondary smokers.
The FAMCON approach appeared particularly well-suited to female smokers and smokers whose partner also smoked – two sub-groups at high risk for relapse.

Fender repair using hammer & dolly
Figured I better stop and ask for some advice before I get what feels like further and further into this project. Fender from a 64' Merc Comet that was munched in the front. I stripped off all the quarter inch thick bondo and have been trying to straighten the panel out using a hammer and dolly. I've never attempted anything of this sort before and have been reading some awesome threads here in the forum using the search feature and have picked up some excellent tips. It feels like I'm approaching the point of how far a hammer and dolly will take you. Thought I better turn to the pros before continuing and possibly making things worse.
I don't want to jam up the post with a bunch of pics but I will post some to show the progression and what I mean. I've beat the front portion below the mid line back to pretty flat from where it was but you can see that it's now all high, if I try to bring it back down to meet the rest of the fender it wants to buckle and that whole section concaves back into a dent. It's stretched and I need to shrink it is what I have been thinking. Problem: I don't have a shrinking disc, only your average shop tools. The picture shows the front section I'm talking about. How can I shrink that section back down without a disc? What's neat is that last year in my crawlspace while doing some insulating, I found some small leaf springs amoung other old items from the 40's and 50's. The look like baby buggy springs so anyway after reading about the slapper I decided to clean one of them up and try it (since I don't have a real slapper)..believe it or not it works pretty great!
Next thing in my mind was how to remove all the hammer and dolly marks without an English wheel. Is there an old shop trick that anybody would be willing to share? The fender metal looks like lines in the sand from where it's been reworked. There is a lot of geometry in the fender with the styling lines. Advice on what to do next please?
it looks like the front of your wheel crown rolled inwards. Pretty typical. You can clamp two pieces of wood in the inside and out and roll it back out. Generally, when a section is really messed up and appears stretched it might not be stretched after all but the tension in other areas is leaving certain areas loose, which may tighten back up when it's properly metal worked. Shrinking is always done last after all metal work is done. You can cheat it if you don't want to do all the metalwork and use a stud gun to shrink or a torch. If you work it out completely than a shrinking disk is perfect. Shrinking with a shrinking disk is more or less shrinking that's a part of the metal work. Very minor shrinking thru a process that usually needs to be repeated, but can have adverse affects when attempted on metal that's not completely metal worked beforehand. It also tends to take too long on oil cans unless it's metal worked perfectly. So when you think of a shrinking disk to shrink you should probably think of it as metal working and not shrinking. Shrinking with a stud gun or heat is more ideal when it's not metal worked perfectly and you just want to tighten an area up. You might want to consider metal conditioning that fender. It doesn't look like the cleanest metal at this point.
Yep the wheel crown is rolled inward which is the design but it's a little too far rolled at this point. It was totally rolled in the front of the crown but I have managed to bring it back so far. A big art of that is because I removed the inner support piece that runs inside the front. Drilled the spot welds and took it out so I could get access all the way up to the front of the fender. It pulls back pretty easily. There is a front fender extension that bolts on and I've got the fender lines in front matched up good. I've been using a contour gauge based off the other fender curves to match the wheel well lip up. It's coming but very slowly with a lot of measuring.
What leads me to believe that front part is stretched is that the area above the wheel is still straight metal and wasn't messed up so I've been use that as my reference. Where it comes to the front of the fender it rolls up where I've been working it. You can see the dark vertical line, that's my sharpee which is what the mess on the fender is. I can see and feel it, while it's much straighter now it's sitting high and needs to be brought back to even with the rest of the fender.
Thanks for the help I was thinking about hitting it with the torch but wasn't sure. I have this crazy idea that if I only had an English wheel I could roll this thought and it would be nice and flat, lol.
What do you mean by metal conditioning the fender?
if you're using a sharpy as guide coat your metal is probably straighter than I thought. I'm sure you also used your contour gauge to check the other side to realize the high spot is not supposed to be there. Yeah, it sounds like a shrinking disk is what's needed. Is it high due to it being loose? If not you can also use a slapper or hammer off dolly technique, or of course a shrinking disk. If it's loose than I'd say try to metal work it more in the surrounding areas and/or use a stud gun.
Just to set your mind at ease on the English Wheel. It shapes metal by displacing it under pressure. If indeed the area needs to be shrunk it will not help. It may "iron" some of the waves out but you will be left with a high crown that still needs to be shrunk. I know this doesn't help you but thought you might at least like a little insight into what the English wheel can or can't do.
John L
John, thanks for the info, would the wheel take out the small "mars" caused where the dolly contacts the surface? It's like little smudges all over the place. That's what I was thinking, I'd like a way to smooth up all those marks. To this point I can't think of another way of doing that without getting down and dirty and taking a bunch of metal off
John L
Try John Kelly (VW guy) on the web and watch some of his youtube videos. If you type John Kelly/shrinking disk it may lead you to one of his videos on the subject. I got a disk from him and it came with a cool DVD on techniques.
Progress! If only I had one of those discs handy I could have been off and done by now and onto the next project I actually took a break and did another little side project while I was waiting to meet a guy about some wheels after work. Started working out a dent in one of the Merc's headlight bezels. Came out pretty sweet but I had to shape it a little with the DA and it took off the anodizing....maybe I'll try and polish it...oh but anyway back on topic.
I started working the high spot in the front using the torch and after doing so noticed the metal relaxed quite a bit and was easier to work with the hammer and dolly. It's almost down to where it needs to be then of course two other issues pop up. At the back of the high spot where it runs out onto the main area of the fender, it started to oil can. I pulled on the front wheel crown and what happened was it tweaked the high spot to right where it needs to be but created the oil can. So I started working that out. Got to thinking about it a bit and I think I found the real issue. The styling for the bumper line in the bottom corner is mucked up and it's throwing the whole flow of the fender off! The metal is so tight there though, I heated it and quenched with a rag and it didn't budge at all. But it's keeping the fender rolled so I have to fix it. I tested this theory by giving a little push/pull, pushing on the high spot and pulling on the front wheel crown and it put somewhat of a crease just about even with that styling line.
I noticed about the torch is true the heat is very localized and hard to control in such tiny areas. I got on a roll for a while there and started trying different techniques and definitely saw different results with each one. I found too much heat left high spots but if I worked around them in a star pattern it pulled the high spots out. I found that heating just until cherry and quenching with a wet rag right away worked the best for shrinking things in. Funny story the guy I bought the torch from was telling me about how an old timer showed him once how to heat up a dent and quench it to remove it and he was using that same technique on a 49' Ford PU he's been building for 15 years...I've wanted to try that since then at least I can cross it off the list and I feel alright about how the fender is coming along
Thanks for the great info I'll check out the suggested videos and will be outfitting with some new tools when the pocketbook affords them.

– Degree of latitudes 07° 6'30" North and 00°41'48" South
– Degree of longitudes 72° 32'30" and 73° 45'54" East.
Maldives Geography
The atolls of the Maldives are formed from coral structures. The atolls are part of a greater structure known as the Laccadives-Chagos Ridge, which stretches over 2000 kilometers. The Maldives islands are low lying with the highest point at approximately eight feet above sea level. Ring-shaped reef structures form the atolls and these reefs provide the natural defense against wind and wave action on these delicate islands.
Located at the crossways of the Indian Ocean shipping lanes on the main seaway around the Indian subcontinent, the Maldives has long been a meeting point for African, Arab, Malay and Indonesian mariners.
Throughout the centuries these influences have shaped the Maldivian way of life. This can be seen from the many facets of Maldivian lifestyle such as dining, music, art and craft.
Bodu Beru is the most popular form of music and dance in the country, believed to have been introduced in the early 19th century by African slaves. Historians believe that Thaara, which also holds a special place in local entertainment, have been introduced from the Middle East in the seventeenth century.
Other forms of dance such as Bandiya Jehun have a strong South Asian flavor. Today western pop and Indian music is popular with the young and old.
Art & Craft
The Maldivians are skilled craftsmen. This can be seen in several of Maldivian arts and craft; the deft coral stone carvings at Hukuru Miskiiy, the intricate lacquer art, the fine mats woven by the women of Fioari in the south and the work of skilled calligraphers whose works old and new that can be viewed in mosques around the country.

Home Remedies to remove scars on face
1. Sandalwood is best for removing scars from face. Rub sandalwood with either milk or with rose water and apply to face. Wash your face after an hour using cold water. This helps to remove the scars and blemishes from your face.
2. If you have many scars in your face, drink lemon juice without sugar 2 to 3 times a day for 15 days.
3. Soak 2 to 3 almonds in water and leave it overnight. In the morning peel the skin and mash it. Mix little rose water and apply to face. This helps in removing scars and blemishes from face.
4. If you have wrinkles on your face, you can use radish seed paste. Applying this paste helps to remove scars and wrinkles from face.
5. Potato is also very useful to remove scars from face. Potato contains minerals like potassium, and sulphur and applying raw potato juice helps to remove scars from face.

Using it in the shower gives the added benefit of allowing
it to deep clean open pores and I can rinse it quickly away, which is important for me because if I leave it
on my face too long, it stings. I even heard someone
say that cow poop is in our cosmetics because the entire cow is dumped in
that cooking pot, intestines and it's contents.

Hello, everybody. I need a little advice. I have a beauty saloon in Thai Land. I want to buy a Laser hair removal system due to increasing popularity of Laser hair removal in Thai land. I get all sorts of clients ranging from skin types II to Skin type V mostly. I wanted to know if there is any Laser hair removal system which covers all these skin types or should i opt for two different types of laser systems one for light skin types and other for dark skin types. I will highly appreciate if u can tell me where i can buy this equipment.
- Login or register to post comments
- Ping This!
hello Sth that bothers my
to make your beauty salon in
to make your beauty salon in Thailand more popular, better buy 2 or more different laser hair removal system. its a guarantee it will maximize your customer satisfaction..having only one laser hair removal system will guarantee to give you unsatisfied customers..
A lot of laser hair removal
A lot of laser hair removal clinics have employed two or more laser hair removal system for their clients. If you want your clinic to be popular to your patients and refer your clinic to their friends and relatives, then better cater to almost all skin type by buying the right laser hair removal machine for each skin type. One for dark, blondes, and red people. And the other for the normal skin type. However, there is no equipment yet that could cater to almost all types of skin. Infact, for each skin type, there is an appropriate laser hair removal machine. Hope this information helps you.

Eddie Irvine is ready for the race of his life in Japan to seal the world title - and he has warned McLaren's Mika Hakkinen and David Coulthard not to try any dirty tricks.
Eddie Irvine is ready for the race of his life in Japan to seal the world title - and he has warned McLaren's Mika Hakkinen and David Coulthard not to try any dirty tricks.
Ferrari ace Irvine said today that his chance of winning the title was still open after his points lead over rival Hakkinen was restored in a weekend legal tug-of-war.
But he warned he was ready for any dirty tricks, saying Hakkinen and Coulthard may "play games and push me back into Stewarts and Williams and Jordans" at the season-ending Japanese Grand Prix on Sunday.
"It could cause problems and we have got to be very careful. We cannot afford to relax," said the 33-year-old Ulsterman after a weekend of partying at a Tokyo night club.
"I hope to get the result we want."
But Irvine also said he could rely on his "hometown" advantage stemming from his F-3000 stint in Japan from 1991 to 1993.
"Suzuka is my favourite circuit," he said.
"It's like my home grand prix because I raced in Japan for three years and I had a lot of fun here and I have enjoyed coming back."
On Saturday an independent inquiry in Paris overturned Ferrari's disqualification from the last grand prix in Malaysia where Irvine and double world champion Michael Schumacher finished one-two.
The verdict, which dispelled suspicions Ferrari's red machines carried illegally-sized deflectors, reinstalled Irvine's four-point lead over 1998 champion Hakkinen.
"The situation is still very open," Irvine said, adding it would have been much better if he had a five-point advantage.
If Hakkinen wins at Suzuka, the 31-year-old flying Finn will have his second world title. But if Hakkinen finishes second, Irvine has to finish in the top four to seal the title.
"That will be nice," he said, commenting on the possibility that Schumacher beats Hakkinen into second spot so that Irvine just cruises into fourth spot to sew up his drivers title.
"If Mika (Hakkinen) breaks down at the start then I can really have fun because I really love the circuit," he said.
"And, it will be the greatest way to go into the race and I can go crazy."Reuse content

"dealing with tiny prints has been fantastic. people are so helpful every time I call. this product is great. cards are thick: do not feel thin or cheap. color is vivid and beautiful.. loved everything about the ordering experience and the product"
"I can't say enough good things about these invitations! The paper quality is excellent, the blue/brown combination is modern and tasteful, and the overall effect is very elegant. I ordered the matching response card as well, and I could not be happier."
"We were looking for inexpensive invitations and these were very reasonably priced. I was concerned that, given how inexpensive they were, they might be flimsy, but they're not; they're printed on a heavy card stock. The pattern is delicate and perfect for our Bat Mitzvah girl. Shipping was crazy fast and the invitations arrived looking better than expected."
"After much online research, I ordered these invitations for my son's upcoming Bar Mitzvah. The order arrived sooner than the estimated arrival date. The quality of the paper is very nice and the colors are true. I have received many compliments on the invitation's mix of modern style and traditional elements. The best part was being able to upload my invitation list and have the envelopes pre-addressed for the same price as the return address alone. This was a time saving service and a great value."
"I loved the simple classic lines on this beautiful Bar Mitzvah invitation. I have received many positive compliments on them too. Tiny Prints was fantastic to work with."

OVERVIEW: With the inevitable switch over to Digital TV, I decided to purchase a cheap Freeview box for my TV in the bedroom. As I only tend to watch TV for about half an hour before going to sleep, I didn't want to spend a lot of money on the box.
After deciding that just having 5 channels wouldn't do, I realised that i needed to invest in a freeview box. I bought the Philips DTR210 set top box from my local Tesco store for £24.99 The set top box came with an adapter, remote and instructions.

As a result I am in urgent need of finding medium/long term accommodation. I would prefer to avoid short/term or temporary as I really do require some stability. I work in the IT industry with stable employment (technology is very much a passion of mine). I'm certainly not the party type, and don't smoke or drink so there would be no issues there. As stated, I am happy with medium-term or long-term accommodation. If it's medium-term, I am morr flexible with what I am looking for than if I was planning to settle in somewhere long-term. I do not drive, so somewhere close to public transport is essential. A nearby train station is ideal but a nearby bus is suitable too. Bonus points if you have a cat :) (I don't have any of my own). My preference is for somewhere along the Pakenham-Dandenong or Cranbourne-Dandenong train line but open to other areas, especially if it's only medium-term. I was previously interested in the Pakenham-Traralgon area as well but unfortunately the regional V/Line fares are a LOT more expensive than I was expecting which removed those options from the table. My budget for long-term accommodation is around $200/week but will be less for medium-term accommodation as I will still need to pay for storage of my belongings elsewhere. To settle into something long-term I would need to be able to get my things out of storage. Happy to further discuss what I am seeking regarding long-term accomodation, but space would be high on my list. Sharing of meals would also be ideal. I do suffer from OCD (obsessive compulsive disorder), but am coping well. But you are a judgemental person or have issues with people who have their own struggles in life, then you are not the right house for me. If you can look past that, you will find I am a genuinely nice person who likes helping others and regularly goes out of my way for others, but unfortunately I have certainly not received anywhere near the same back in return. In fact many of the people I have helped out have returned the favour by simply screwing me over which is beyond disappointing. I'm quite an open and friendly person and I have nothing to hide so feel free to get in contact and say hi or ask any questions you may have. You are best to reach me through Gumtree messaging or via Facebook if you prefer. Unless I'm at work I'm usually contactable :). Alternatively if you know of any job opportunities in the IT/AV industries, or even know of anyone requiring any casual or home/small business IT/AV work, please also let me know :). Also, it's a shame I have to even say this but it seems I do. If I contact you regarding a room you have available, and it turns out I'm not what you're looking for for any reason, that's fine and no hard feelings but please don't just read my message without taking the time to let me know. I have lost a lot of time waiting for people to respond who never did, or who have just stop responding out of the blue. Not only is this quite rude and uncalled for but it's also really not helpful to me in my situation. Shaun
Curtis is a personal trainer at Jetts in Berwick employed by Priority Health and fitness. Teagan is currently studying vetinary nursing. We're both very considerate people, and caring. We're not a party couple and dont go out very much. We prefer to stay home watch a movie etc.
Im looking for long term stable place to stay. I work full-time in a warehouse in Mt Waverley and have a car so im looking for something in east, south east suburbs. I have a small fluffy (hyper allergenic ) well trained and social little Maltese dog. He keeps me busy we spend all our time together. I also am away every month on weekends with family in Gippsland & dog comes with me. Prefer a mature type of home. I love watching movies, a good book, eating out and coffee.

Agenda 2030 states that "there can be no sustainable development without peace and no peace without sustainable development." Peace is identified as one of five areas of 'critical importance for humanity and the planet' – along with people, prosperity, the planet, and partnership:
In a way, the title of our research paper "Demystifying Intelligence in UN Peace Operations: Toward an Organizational Doctrine", speaks for itself. We all know that the UN secretariat has been walking on eggs with this issue of intelligence for years; doing it without saying it and without realizing it.
Few if any Taliban leaders say they want to re-establish the Islamic Emirate or revive the policies that drew the world's opprobrium upon them when they controlled the Afghan state in the 1990s.That is the conclusion drawn in this report by Borhan Osman of the Afghanistan Analysts Network and Anand Gopal, author of No Good Men Among the Living: America, the Taliban, and the War through Afghan Eyes from interviews with members of the Taliban's political wing and analysis of the movement's official publications.
Partnerships are expected to play a critical role in sharing the knowledge, expertise, technology and financial resources that will support the achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals. This report analyzes the role that global platforms and partnerships can play in catalyzing delivery of the new goals, brining together actors from multiple sectors behind a common set of objectives, enabling each other to play to their strengths and maximizing the contribution of others.
The World Humanitarian Summit (WHS) called for a step change in how humanitarian action is conceived, planned, implemented and monitored – and by whom.
In 1996, the Taliban movement, a majority of who were religious students from Deobandi madrasas (religious schools) in Pakistan and rural Afghanistan, established a short-lived Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan. On arrival in Kabul, the Taliban barred women from working at public or private institutions and banned girls from schools. The Taliban regime said that the ban was because of a lack of facilities and security.
The New Deal for Engagement in Fragile States rests upon the mutual commitment of national and international partners to country-owned and country-led exits from fragility. Externally-imposed solutions do not work. In 2011, at the Busan Fourth High Level Forum on Aid Effectiveness, the New Deal was launched with a powerful message: 1.5 billion of the world's poorest people lived in fragile situations. Without partnerships for first building peace, resilience and institutions, the eradication of poverty was not possible. The Millennium Development Goals failed to address this.
The appointment of a new United Nations Secretary-General in 2016 will provide special opportunities for the reform and renewal of the UN Secretariat. While an ambitious agenda for reform may be unrealistic, the relationship between the UN bureaucracy and Member States needs to be reevaluated. The way senior staff are recruited must change. Building a merit-based group of top level officials around the incoming Secretary-General should be a priority. Creating a special transitional team to manage their selection process could be one way to achieve this goal.

The Bureau d'Études, de Recherches, et Consulting International (BERCI) and the Congo Research Group (CRG) at New York University conducted a nationally representative political opinion poll across the Democratic Republic of the Congo. Between May and September 2016, researchers interviewed 7,545 people in face-to-face interviews. Some of our main findings can be found in our report Impasse in the Congo: What do People Think?
The Global Peace Operations Review is a website providing analysis and data on the spectrum of issues surrounding global peace and security, including civilian-led peacemaking and peacebuilding as well as uniformed peacekeeping by the United Nations, regional organizations and ad-hoc coalitions. The site's objective is to contribute to the effectiveness of all peace operations.
We seek to provide the most comprehensive overview of multilateral contributions to conflict prevention, peacemaking, peacekeeping, and post-conflict peacebuilding. In doing so, we seek to integrate thematic and cross-cutting issues including, but not limited to, the women, peace and security agenda and countering violent extremism.
The India-U.S. relationship is presently stronger than at anytime in their history. The twin summits – less than six months apart – in September 2014 and January 2015 between President Barack Obama and Prime Minister Narendra Modi have repaired, revived and revitalized the strategic partnership. Yet there remain several hurdles to deepening the relationship, notably, geopolitical differences over Iran, Russia, Syria and India's membership of various nuclear and missile export control regimes. Perhaps the most formidable of these in terms of immediacy and proximity is the resolution of the Iranian nuclear challenge.
Recent months have seen increasing interest in the idea that Rio+20 could be the launch pad for a new set of 'Sustainable Development Goals' (SDGs). But what would SDGs cover, what would a process to define and then implement them look like, and what would some of the key political challenges be? This short briefing sets out a short summary of current thinking on the issue, followed by thoughts about the way forward.

Israel President Shimon Peres employed aggressive language in discussing the actions of Iran and how their challenge might be met. In an interview with Kot Hai Radio, he said the arrest over the weekend in Egypt of a Hizbullah cell was a blow to Iran which undoubtedly funds that organization. "Ahmadinejad recruits forces against us, but there are also forces against him." He called for unifying Arab nations which are threatened by terrorism in order to defeat Iran's aggressive behavior. He want on to note his hope Obama will be successful in being able to negotiate with Iran, but warned that if Iran continued fostering terrorism it might require Israel to undertake military action, "we'll strike him."
President Peres is correct in calling for Arab nations to unite with Israel against Iran, but until Israel refuses to accept a Palestinian state and withdraw from the West Bank, there will be no such coalition. Ahmadinejad is not the only obstacle to peace in the Middle East, the president only has to look at the current cabinet of Benjamin Netanyahu.

3D-Animated Facebook Profile Lets People Voyage Through Past Status Updates
Browser application gives you a different way to view social media information.
F∆CEWORLD is an app that was created by Timothy Grover that gives users the chance to navigate through their personal Facebook history in 3D. With most status updates getting lost in a flurry of information before too long, the app offers a novel way to sift through the mountain of data that social media churns out.
The app uses WebGL to render the 3D, and for the best performance, it's recommended that you use Google Chrome. Each individual user that logs into the app will be able to see only their own data "objectified," which makes each experience uniquely specified to that person.
Our advice would be to try it out for yourself if you have a few minutes to spare.

Liberty Threatened: Maine in 1775
At Lexington and Concord, on April 19, 1775, British troops attempted to destroy munitions stored by American colonists. The battles were the opening salvos of the American Revolution. Shortly, the conflict would erupt in Maine.
Members of the Washburn family of Livermore participated in the Civil War in a variety of ways -- from Caroline at the homefront, to Samuel at sea, Elihu, as a Congressman from Illinois, and Israel governor of Maine. The family had considerable influence politically on several fronts.

Headphones can be split into several categories. Some are small and discreet, perfect for travelling out and about with. Some should stay at home because they leak sound. The Lindy Premium Hi-Fi headphones should also stay indoors, but not because they'll annoy people around you. It's because they're absolutely massive.
There are plenty of great headphones out there that will make you look anything but cool though, so let's put aside our sizeist prejudice for a moment and take a closer look. The Lindy Premium 'phones use over-the-ear pads designed to surround and encase your whole earlobes. One benefit of their size is that if you've found in the past that headphones tend to flatten your larger-than-average ears, you shouldn't have such problems here.
They come with two sets of pads as well, one with very thick padding and another with even thicker padding. They don't scrimp on foam. The pads, which are lined with pleather (plastic designed to look and feel like leather), fit over a plastic ring that locks into place within the main body of each can.
Made from tough, soft touch finish plastic, the headphones feel extremely strong. The back of each cup is covered by a plate of brushed metal, further reinforcing this sense of strength, while adding a spot of style to the design too.
At first, we found the pressure exerted on the head by the headband and its inner metal skeleton a little too intense, but this eases off as the set is used. Just as speakers have to go through a burn-in process to reach their optimum performance, so does the Lindy headband. If you get impatient, you can always give the headphones a more aggressive flexing, to loosen the clamping effect of the metal band a bit.
Give the Lindy headphones a little time to settle in and you'll find them very comfortable. They give your ears plenty of room, also helping to avoid the overheating some over-the-ears and on-ears headphones can cause.
A secure fit makes the Lindys good noise isolators. They won't drown out the low-end burble of the London Underground or a noisy train as well as the Bose QC3, but put on some tunes and they'll easily contend with talking co-workers, public transport and other noises of modern life. The pads stop anyone nearby from being able to hear what you're listening too as well. The Lindy Premium Hi-Fi cans may be a bit too big to help you look cool, but at least they're socially responsible.
The large size helps them to fit in the standard 3.5mm mono removable cable that plugs into each earcup. There's no special locking mechanism in use here - you just need to employ a hearty yank or push to remove them or shove 'em back in. This should make finding a replacement fairly easy, although the 3m supplied cable is just about perfect for at-home use - an extension cable is your best bet if you need more length.
The headphones come bundled with a screw-on 6.3mm adapter, and there's a carry case included too. Like the headphones themselves, it's not small, but a welcome extra.
"if your house is just too noisy for an open-back set, they excel"
I think for most people the opposite consideration is often the case. Open-backed designs are hardly friendly to anyone else in the room as they leak sound like crazy.
That looks like Fischer Audio FA-003. But Fischer made wooden cups and some filters inside it.

Bill Bailey, well known feminist and supporter
On yesterday morning's BBC news, Simon McCoy interviewed a man who was introduced as having been involved with the publication of one of the so-called "Lads' mags" - I forget his name. He was reacting to the Co-op's decision that they won't stock these magazines unless they're supplied in opaque covers, so you can't see the glamour models. The Co-op says it's had complaints from customers that the images are not suitable for viewing by children. Simon's interviewee made some pathetic comments about "feminists" who were out to spoil boys' fun, or words to that effect. It was clear from the way he practically spat out the word that his attitude to feminism was anachronistic and ignorant. To him, and men like him, feminists are just unhinged trouble-makers. Children can see women baring all on the beach, he said, so why the fuss about seeing them on a supermarket shelf? Their objectification, and the blatantly sexual poses that might attract the wrong sort of attention on Skegness seafront, that's the difference. I'm sure he knew that.
On Newsnight, a small panel, including Caroline Criado-Perez, discussed the abuse she was subjected to on Twitter, and the reaction to it by her supporters and others. Twitter has been fairly useless, so far. The police don't seem to be doing much, though they have arrested one man. Caroline's not the first woman to experience this sort of thing. By coincidence, Newsnight followed Professor Mary Beard's programme about Caligula; Mary experienced similar abuse after she appeared on Question Time not long ago. One of her trolls was "outed" and when Mary found out who he was, she threatened to tell his mum; he apologised. Most trolls are probably not bothered about what their mums might say. Most trolls are probably almost as horrible to their mums as they are to other women.
Not for the first time, this has set me thinking. Compared with the horrific treatment of women in other parts of the world, threats of rape and other online unpleasantness are, arguably, less serious. Domestic violence in the UK is very serious. Misogynist attitudes towards women in the Middle East persist, whether or not there's been a brief Arab spring. The forced marriage of young girls, honour killings, and the denial of basic human rights to women, are familiar stories in Pakistan. When young men have been raised in these patriarchal cultures, where misogyny is mixed up with fundamentalist Islam, it's difficult to see how they can be persuaded to change. But here in the UK, and in America, where there are plenty of Twitter trolls, attitudes ought to be more enlightened.
There is a word for women who hate men. The Oxford Dictionary says,
A woman who hates men can be described as a misandrist, and the corresponding noun is misandry. But however prevalent the attitudes described by these words may be, the words themselves aren't common. There are currently only 23 examples of misandrist in the Oxford English Corpus, while misogynist appears more than 1,200 times; 37 uses of misandry are overshadowed by 1,592 examples of misogyny.
|"He is unaware of punctuation
and is as literate as a spoon."
A Lucy Pepper troll.
It's evident from the sort of thing that misogynist trolls tweet that English was probably not their strongest subject at school, and that they're generally as thick as a brick. I'll bet that many of them were the sort of boys who spent all their schooldays sniggering at the back of the class, like Beavis and Butt-Head, a distraction to anyone who wanted to learn anything. They hate women, yes, but they hate clever women the most. Clever Caroline's campaign to have a clever women - Jane Austin - on an English banknote stirred something in their pathetic little troll brains. How do they function? It's a mystery. Emma Barnett of the Telegraph tried to find out, but didn't get very far. After one troll told her that "men are predators", she asked how he would feel if, like Criado-Perez, his mother received 50 rape threats an hour?
His first answer was genius: "She wouldn't because my mum's not a feminist."
Pity his dad wasn't a feminist, like most of my male friends.
And what would Jane have thought about all this? She'd have been horrified.
And what would Jane have thought about all this? She'd have been horrified.
"I cannot think well of a man who sports with any woman's feelings; and there may often be a great deal more suffered than a stander-by can judge of."
Jane Austen - Mansfield Park.
(The above will be unintelligible to the average male troll.)
For those who don't know: feminism means the advocacy of women's rights on the grounds of political, social, and economic equality to men.

When it isn't suing Apple and paying royalties to Microsoft, HTC tends to make very good phones indeed - as this shows...
Formally announced 24 hours early (we got a preview last week and signed an embargo until Tuesday which a German site helpfully broke) is the 'Wildfire', HTC's attempt to build a more affordable version of the Desire aimed at a wallet conscious/younger audience.
Given this brief there are obvious cuts to the Wildfire when compared directly to its plush older brother: a 3.2 QVGA (non-OLED) capacitive display, slower 528MHz Qualcom MSM7225 chipset and reduced memory (512MB ROM, 384MB RAM). That said, you'll still find a 5MP autofocus camera with LED flash, WiFi, HSDPA, GPS, digital compass, 3.5mm headphone jack, microSD expansion slot and - increasingly standard - microUSB charging. At 106.75 x 60.4 x 11.99mm it is reasonably portable too.
Like the Desire, Wildfire will also feature the latest version of HTC Sense (which now includes Android Marketplace app sharing over Facebook and Twitter) and it is build over Android 2.1. Yes the impending Android 2.2 is said to be up to 450 per cent faster, but Wildfire will support it in time.
Availability in Europe has been pegged as "Q3 2010" which could mean any time from early July to late September, but given HTC's recent punctuality I'd predict it being closer to the former than the latter. If HTC can get the pricing right, expect this to spread like... ...no, I'll not go there.
In related news an early Windows Phone 7 ROM leaked over the weekend and buried deep inside XDA-developers.com has found the HTC 'Mondrian' - a spectastic 4.3in WVGA smartphone with 1.3GHz Snapdragon chipset. The photo below was also extracted from the file 'oemavatar.cab', but it is unknown if this is the Mondrian or a generic shot.
With Windows Phone 7 not due until early Q4 there's likely still some time to wait for anything concrete, but following the stunning Dell Lightning the hardware side appears to be stacking up extremely well.
