Behavior of a child should always be closely monitored during his/her early development. Sometimes signs of several personality disorders tend to show up early in life. Proper monitoring of the child's behavior helps to identify the signs and properly diagnose the condition if the child is suffering from any potential personality disorder.
Here are a few facts you should keep in mind:
- You might often find it difficult to differentiate between the normal and abnormal behavior of your child. You might consult the pediatrician in this case to compare the child's general behavioral patterns with that of other children in the same age group.
- It is very important to understand your child's development process. It helps you to interpret his/her behavior and to identify signs of personality disorder.
- There are a few common behavior patterns, which tend to act as a guide to understanding the behavior of your child. Some of these patterns should be encouraged as they lead to proper behavioral development of your child while patterns of negative behavior should be discouraged.
- You should also consult a doctor if your child shows negative behavior persistently even after disciplining measures.
- Being polite, doing chores on a regular basis, following instructions should be encouraged and rewarded as it helps in the proper personality development of your child.
- Behavioral patterns like an inclination towards defensive, regressive and aggressive behavior should not be encouraged but can be tolerated in certain situations like illness or in times of stress.
- Behavioral patterns like an increased inclination to violence or an excessive competitive attitude towards their siblings should never be allowed.
- Prejudice or racism, stealing or inclination towards substance abuse, angry outbursts point towards problems in the child's mental, physical or social well-being. You are also advised to take your child to a psychological expert to find out whether he/she is suffering from any sort of behavioral disorder.
- Your behavior also plays a major role in development of your child and his/her behavioral patterns. It is often seen that if a child is subjected to excessive physical, mental or emotional abuse or is engaged in too many curricular and extracurricular activities, he/she is likely to develop several behavioral disorders over time.
Manic depression, also known as bipolar disorder in recent days, is a major mood disorder characterized by hypomanic or manic episodes (deviation from one's usual mood along with abnormally high energy levels). Mania involves sleeplessness, along with psychosis, hallucinations, rage, grandiose delusions or paranoia. Mania or hypomania isn't usually harmful to the patient and they might exhibit increased capacity for work and creativity. Depressive episodes however, can be debilitating and often life threatening as the person becomes self-destructive and suicidal in many instances.
The extent of mood swings can vary from extreme to very mild. They can occur progressively or suddenly and might last for few days to weeks. Patients affected by bipolar disorder may experience disturbances in thinking apart from depressive or manic episodes. Distortions of perception and impaired social functioning are also not uncommon. The cause of bipolar disorder is not fully understood like most mental health conditions and is often thought to be hereditary.
The extent of the seriousness of the bipolar symptoms varies from person to person. In some people, the disorder is not full blown and they don't exhibit all the symptoms. Others who aren't that lucky might have to be hospitalized multiple times in their lives as the symptoms creep into their work and personal life and make living a normal life a tough challenge.
Psychotic symptoms such as disorganized thinking, hallucinations and delusions might make a person do things that demand the urgency of hospitalization to keep them safe from their suicidal impulses. These symptoms might need to be urgently addressed by a psychiatrist and with the help of medications, the person might be able to regain control of their lives.
The symptoms of bipolar disorder are many and can be mainly categorized into two (sometimes overlapping) categories of mania or hypomania and depression:
Manic symptoms include:
- Grandiose delusions (delusion of grandeur)
- Racing thoughts which are often disconnected
- Sense of euphoria or false elation
- Irritability without cause
- Hampered social functioning
- Increased sexual inclination and risky sexual behavior
- Hyperactivity
- Increase in talking volume or speed
- Impaired judgment
- Reduced sleep requirements owing to extra energy levels
- Increased productivity and creativity
Depressive symptoms include:
- Abnormal eating patterns like over or under-eating to the extent of severe medical complications accompanied by drastic changes in weight
- Difficulty in concentration, making decisions and remembering
- Lack of energy or fatigue
- Contemplating about death for prolonged periods of time and suicidal behavior
- Oversleeping, insomnia or early awakening
- Persistent pessimism
- Irritability and restlessness
- Feeling of hopeless and negative attitude
Mood stabilizers, such as lithium are commonly employed to treat bipolar disorder. Anticonvulsants, benzodiazepines and anti psychotics can also be used in the treatment. Along with medications, support from family and friends is of the utmost importance as they need to help provide all the support required in making the person functional and healthy. If you wish to discuss about any specific problem, you can consult a psychiatrist.

Binge drinking is a problem that has been noticed nowadays in many teenagers and youngsters. Whether it is at an event or a party, drinking high doses of alcohol in one sitting is known as binge drinking.
Binge Drinking in Women Is Different from Men
Binge drinking for men is the consumption of more than five alcoholic beverages in one sitting. But the case is different for women. For women binge drinking is defined as a woman consuming more than four alcoholic beverages in a single sitting. Also, it has been found in a survey that almost 75% of the binge drinkers are college students. Among these, the ratio of men is much higher than women.
What Leads to Binge Drinking?
- Lack of control: One of the most common reasons is, of course, the lack of control. When such a person comes in contact with alcohol, they tend to over drink because they have no control over their drinking.
- The weekend fun: Secondly, another reason is seen in the case of youngsters between the age of 18 years to 35 years. These are youngsters who have a tendency of meeting friends and going out on weekends after the week's toil. They know that after this weekend they will be able to enjoy their favorite bottle only in the next weekend. Hence, they binge drink.
Results of Binge Drinking
It becomes difficult to check how much alcohol will affect a person, because it depends on various factors, such as height, weight, age and also at times, alcohol tolerance of the person. But of course, there are some common results of binge drinking. Some of such results are:
- Unintended and unprotected sex leading to pregnancy or even STDs (sexually transmitted diseases) in some cases
- Accidents that may lead to severe injuries and even death at times
- Physical or mental assault of others that the person may regret later on.
When Is Help Required?
When the person has a habit of driving after drinking, neglecting family and doing harm to others as well, help is surely needed. Here, short 4-5 sessions with a therapist may help. A regular drinking habit is no doubt a reason to worry. But binge drinking is another reason that can lead to bigger problems and hence, needs to be examined closely too. If you wish to discuss about any specific problem, you can consult a Psychiatrist.
Anxiety is a very normal emotion, which gives rise to feelings of nervousness every now and then. An anxiety disorder is a serious medical condition in which people experience a high degree of distress and mental trauma, which causes difficulties in leading a normal life. People suffering from this medical condition experience high levels of anxiety and nervousness almost all the time. Here are the symptoms that indicate you're suffering from anxiety disorder.
1. Excessive worry - This condition persists if you worry about the day to day activities a bit too much on a regular basis. It is identified when you start taking too much stress about very petty things, which tends to affect you in an adverse manner. A noticeable sign of excessive worry can be too much fatigue.
2. Sleep problems - Problems falling asleep at the right time and problems in maintaining a sound sleep are two signs that indicate you have an anxiety disorder.
3. Irrational fears - This symptom is not generalized; instead, it is specific and subjective in relation to a particular thing or situation. The fears that are experienced under this category are sudden and unexpected in nature and there is no fixed rationale behind these fears.
4. Muscle tension - Muscle discomfort and pain is one of the leading physiological causes of an anxiety disorder. The pain felt is chronic and pervasive, and is very common among people facing situations of anxiety. If you are exposed to constant periods of anxiety, you will experience fatigue, muscle pains and unwillingness to work.
5. Chronic indigestion - Problems related to the digestive system are also a sign of anxiety disorder. In this case, you may face constant digestive problems accompanied by a common disorder called IBS (Irritable Bowel Syndrome). IBS refers to an anxiety situation in the digestive tract, which is characterized by stomach aches, cramping, bloating, gas, constipation, and/or diarrhea.
Apart from the above-mentioned symptoms, other symptoms of an anxiety disorder include stage fright, self- consciousness, panic attacks, memory flashbacks, perfectionism, compulsive behaviors, self- doubt, and such others. If you wish to discuss about any specific problem, you can consult a Psychiatrist.
I can't concentrate on studies and any physical work I do my brain and mind is not under my control if try to concentrate specially in studies my headache starts what should I do now.
Fear, anxiety and stress can often lead humans to either escape the situation or fight it by defending themselves. But there are other behaviours that humans turn to when they are under stress. This is not unnatural at all; we all face it at some point in time. What's more, even dogs revert to the four Fs when under stress. Let us find out what are they and also how to deal with them.
- Fight: Fighting back is the natural reaction, which we turn to when we want to defend ourselves. Shouting at someone might give you some confidence for the time being. But again, it is not a permanent solution. We might end up apologising for our behaviour later but do nothing to address the situation that brought about that kind of behaviour.
- Flight: This is the escape mode that we turn to when we want to avoid a certain person or scenario, that might lead to stress. However, it must be remembered that, fleeing stress will help in fixing it temporarily. But since the situation remains unchanged, it will keep happening again and again.
- Freeze: For some people, the shock is so overwhelming that it becomes difficult for them to react at all. They simply freeze. The person goes into the panic mode and fails to move or say anything.
- Fool around: This option seems to be not a very bad idea in times of stress and anxiety depending on exactly what you mean by fooling around. If you can crack a joke at a tensed situation and lighten the mood, it helps immensely. However, if your idea of fooling around is to avoid talking about the situation and instead have fun, talk about other silly things, then it might not be a good idea.
Dealing with stress is not easy, but if you have realised the cause for your stress, your problem is half solved. If it is something you can change, then start working on it. If not, then it is best to let things happen in their own sweet way, while you change your attitude towards it. If you have realised what kind of behaviour your turn to when under stress, it is easier to face the situation. Listen to some of your favourite music, wear clothes that make you feel good and think about the situation and the possible solution later. Don't let stress get to you, face situations, keep calm and be positive!
My son had approached me a couple of months ago and said that he has been unable to concentrate for a while and feels that his ability to remember stuff has decreased. I have noticed that for some while he has lacks energy and finds it hard to perform simple tasks. He has been very unstable emotionally and gets irked very easily and frequently. He gets very angry at himself and even harmed himself after a bad exam. His results were also very below par. He wasn't like this until about 6 months ago. I haven't seen him this sad before. I'm worried about his mental health and request you to recommend to me the next step I should take. I anxiously await your response. Thanking you.

Sir. I am addicted to smoke too much. And Now I am suffering from cold and cough ver much. .so sir what can I do now?
I have a boyfriend who was lovely and caring before. Now he has changed after 10 months of being together. He used to call me alot but now he never calls and when I call him sometimes he answers, sometimes not. When he answers he is normal and fine. When he do not answer he never calls back. I asked him so many times what happened and all he is saying that he is so busy. I do not know what to do I feel worried and sad and I lost my appetite. What should I do?
At some point I start having panic attacks and I feel my self shaking and trembling, which makes me start crying sometimes. I feel loss of breath. Somethings make me fear a lot. What can I do? Any medications if you can suggest?
My child has a red mole on his forehead since birth it was small n it's big will it disappear or we need to do the surgery but will that harm him or leave any marks on it's face worried for the same as he is 1 years 6 months only.
A panic attack is a sudden fit of anxiety or fear. In this situation, a person's heart starts pounding and they are unable to breathe. Sometimes, they may even feel like throwing up or even dying. It may even make a person withdraw from their daily routine and reach a point of hopelessness. If left untreated, these panic attacks can lead to a panic disorder. These attacks can have more physical symptoms including shaking, nausea, dry mouth, sweating or dizziness.
There are certain medications and treatments to cure this disorder. These include antidepressants and benzodiazepines, which are anti-anxiety medications. Taking them brings rapid relief, however; these are highly addictive and can have certain withdrawal symptoms. To avoid medications, there are certain self-help tips to cope with the problem. These include:
- Avoid smoking, alcohol and caffeine. These are substances that can provoke your panic attacks.
- Learn how to control your breathing while you are experiencing an attack. Deep breathing can relieve the symptoms that come with this disorder. This can help you calm down.
- Practice relaxation techniques such as yoga and meditation. These strengthen the body's ability to respond to situations that can cause anxiety. Not only do they release stress but they also increase the feelings of joy and happiness.
- Try to exercise regularly. It is a natural anxiety reliever. Therefore, one should exercise in any form, for at least thirty minutes a day.
- You should try to get as much sleep as possible. Insufficient amounts of sleep can make the anxiety even worse. Dancing, swimming or cycling can be highly effective.
- Try not to stay alone. Anxiety levels and the chances of a panic attack are high when you are alone. If you feel that you do not have anyone to go to or turn to, try to explore ways to meet and build supportive relationships.
- Go to a therapist or a psychologist to vent out your feelings and anxieties. This can help you by giving you a cathartic release and get over your pent up emotions.
If someone is suffering from a panic disorder, make sure that you do not let it go unnoticed because people who suffer from this condition usually like to keep it to themselves. This smothers them even further and leaves them at a great risk and vulnerability. Those who have this condition should try to seek medical or psychological help in order to feel better.
Panic disorders are very dangerous and unpredictable. These can mess with your work and performance. In order to avoid that, keep noticing the signs and symptoms and reach for the correct type of medical or clinical attention. Ignoring such a condition can hamper your future and lead to a lot of other allied health problems. If you wish to discuss about any specific problem, you can ask a free question.

"Black Twitter" is real.
Its influence has been credited for ending the book deal of a juror from the George Zimmerman trial. Considering that more than a quarter of Black Internet users are on Twitter, civil rights activists want to ensure diversity in Twitter's staff.
USA Today reports Rev. Jesse Jackson's Rainbow PUSH Coalition and Colorofchange.org have put pressure on Twitter to release its gender and ethnic breakdown of its employees. The civil rights activists are using an attention-grabbing campaign on Twitter to do it.
"We come not to disrupt but to fulfill the promise of social media," Jackson said in an interview this week.
ColorOfChange is asking its one million members to sign an online petition to express their support of pressuring the San Francisco-based company to release its demographic makeup. On Friday (July 18), the Netroot Nations annual political conference in Detroit is holding a session focused on Twitter and said it would ask people to "tweet out" to Twitter.
Unfortunately, Twitter has remained silent, refusing to adhere to activists' request. On Wednesday, a rep from Twitter said the company had nothing to announce "at this time."
"It is ironic that Twitter is still resisting releasing this information," Jackson said. "We are over-indexed on Twitter as users, and we are under-indexed as employees."
In the past Jackson, has succeeded in getting Google, Facebook, LinkedIn and Yahoo to release reports that have revealed what we already knew: the technology industry is overwhelming male, White and Asian.
Twitter users are more diverse than any other social network with 41 percent of its users being Black, Latino and Asian American.
Executive director of ColorOfChange Rashad Robinson said Twitter has an "obligation to be transparent and clear with the community that has helped them grow."
"We are not going to stand by and be silent while Twitter continues to benefit and grow off the creativity, the ideas and the engagement from our community while we are being shut out from the economic growth and opportunities that come with that," Robinson said.
Twitter has been called to task on its lack of diversity before for having only one woman on its company's board. In addition, nine of the 11 senior executives are White men.
Other technology and online companies like Apple and Pandora have said they plan to release the information of its ethnic and gender demographics, so it's strange Twitter refuses.
Jackson said urging the release of the information is only the first step. Activists plan to encourage companies to set timetables and goals on hiring more people of color.
Jackson added, "Releasing this data is just the beginning of our quest for equality."

You've taken the leap. You've launched your consulting career and are working your first contract. Excellent! You can practically feel the freedom surging through you like a spring wind through your hair. The checks are coming in and they're exhilarating… you definitely weren't making this much as a W-2! You're on your way to big things, and the millions of independent consultants, contractors, and freelancers who have preceded you – including myself – applaud your entrepreneurialism and go-it-alone spirit.
But when that first contract starts winding down, reality sets in. That river of money you're making is about to dry up. Sure you knew it was coming. You knew this contract wouldn't last forever. But what seemed to be way off in some hazy future is now just weeks – or even days – away. You've suddenly come face to face with the horrifying possibility that your income is simply going to disappear. You start to worry. You start to scramble. You start to sweat.
Yes, the challenge of securing your second contract can seem daunting. But there are many steps you can take to position yourself for a potent pipeline. As director of enrollments at MBO Partners, I spend a lot of time talking with consultants who worry about how they can acquire their next contract. This checklist may be just what you need to set yourself up for future contract opportunities.
While it's natural to worry, it's better to plan out your options. What are your core marketable skills? How can you connect with those who need and value those skills? Use tools like LinkedIn to connect with others in your expertise area. And this part's critical: let your network know you are open to future consulting opportunities. Your network of professional contacts is your number one channel for new work. Don't be shy – past colleagues are often happy to send work your way.
I'm going to highlight what may seem to be a no-brainer. In worrying about your future contract, don't neglect your biggest opportunity – word of mouth about your current one! If you deliver flawless work to your client and exceed their expectations, they're often be willing to recommend your services to other companies and hiring managers. Become essential. Leads will follow.
Create a mailing list of contacts to whom you feel comfortable announcing that you will be available. You can manage this list as an address book in your email package, a spreadsheet, or through online tools such as Constant Contact. Send this off about a month before your contract is about to end so you give opportunities time to mature. The note could be something as simple as:
Hi [insert name],
As you may know, I am now offering my [Offering] skills as an independent consultant. My current project at [Client] is wrapping up and I will be available to work other contracts beginning in about one month. If you have any contract opportunities that you feel might fit with my skills and experience, I would greatly appreciate the chance to work with you.
Best regards,
[Your name]
When you're about a month out from finishing your contract, talk with your current client about opportunities for additional work. Present a proposal or plan that identifies areas where you think you could help. Don't just ask if they have it, create the need for them! If you can create a solid business case, they may be anxious to do repeat business.
Remember, you're a professional now. Even if the scope of work or something outside the control of you or the client changed the contract, find a way to turn it around and create an opportunity. Even if this opportunity isn't for you, maybe it's something you can refer to one of your peers or business partners. Good deeds do come back your way – it's consulting karma!
And finally, if possible, prepare of list of tasks that still need to be done, even when you are completed with your deliverables. Bringing your client's attention to these details in an organized way may lead to future work for you.
Following these pointers should ease the path to finding your next contract. But if you remember one thing, make it this: your best source for new work lies in your natural market; that is, your close contacts and colleagues. Don't hesitate to make them aware that you are available. Good luck, and here's to a great one!
Three risks of discounting your services along with solutions for times that it is appropriate.
Remain competitive in the evolving work landscape with these 10 skills.

Akin to a stretched pebble, the Nokia C7 has a metallic look and feel, and as such feels refreshingly cool
Though the capacitive touch-screen is impressively responsive, we found the home screens crowded and the widgets and news feed too small
An eight-megapixel camera complete with dual-LED flash, Wi-Fi, A-GPS and a 3.5-inch capacitive touch-screen make up the C7's feature set
Impressive camera and sat nav offerings are let down by an overall lack of fluidity, while the browsing experience has too many glitches
Nokia has always had a good reputation for strong battery lives, and the C7 is no exception
Review by Sunetra Chakravati,12/12/2011 3:59:50 PM
Look and feel
Ease of use
Battery life
A cool, metallic design will warrant plenty of admiring looks
The widgets and news feeds are so cramped that you?ll have to open them up in their entirety to really enjoy the benefits
Nokia's faith in Symbian needs to be admired. The Finnish manufacturer's loyalty to the much maligned operating system perhaps explains why it has been able to maintain such a devoted fanbase, with consumers not having to master a host of new menu systems or work out what certain keys refer to. While HTC, LG and Samsung have all embraced both Android and Windows Phone 7, Nokia has so far refused to follow suit. Of course, they have recently updated their Symbian operating system. Symbian^3 was first seen in the Nokia N8, and it's present and correct here in the Nokia C7, a touch-screen phone with social networking at its core.
The Nokia C7 is one handsome looking device. Akin to a stretched pebble, the C7 has a metallic look and feel, and as such feels refreshingly cool (we're talking temperature wise). However, you'll probably find yourself wiping down the back and front of the phone at regular intervals as they are a magnet for fingerprints.The 3.5-inch AMOLED display adds to the aesthetic appeal of the phone and we were impressed with how responsive the capacitive touch-screen proved to be. However, the default setting of the Nokia C7 consists of three very crowded home screens. Each home screen is made up of six rows of various widgets, shortcuts and news feeds, and though they can of course be edited or removed, we found no way of doing so individually. Instead we'd have to delete an entire line before re-choosing what widgets we wanted to include on the home screen. There's also no drag and drop facility a la Android, so to add or delete, you'll need to go through the various menu settings.
As touched upon, Nokia has put a huge emphasis on social networking with the C7. Type in your Facebook and Twitter credentials and feeds from both will be merged into one stream. Then you'll be able to post updates across both networks, search for specific friends as well as take and post photos directly. However, the feed is so small that unless each update is just a few words, you'll be unable to read the entire post unless you open up the application fully. But even when you do this, we felt the text looked pixelated, which is very surprising considering the quality of the display.Nokia has loaded the C7 with both Google and Bing, giving you a choice of what search engine you use. Unfortunately, both these text bars are very small, which left us squinting at the screen to make sure we'd spelt out search terms correctly. Another gripe was that when we loaded webpages in landscape mode, the right-hand side of the screen was largely redundant with an empty white space. We were able to realign it manually by pinching and pulling the screen together, but this seems to be an oversight by Nokia, particularly when it's fine in a portrait position. There's also no copy and paste facility, something that is almost taken for granted now among respectable smartphones. Something else in which the Nokia C7 can't compete with Android (Froyo) phones is voice search. While we've been blown away by Google's efforts, the C7's offering (activated by a dedicated key on the right-hand side of the phone) not only sounded robotic it was also disappointingly inconsistent.It's not all bad as far as the C7 is concerned. Ovi Maps remains one of the most impressive "free" mapping solutions available and the C7 transpired to offer a fast and accurate A-GPS fix, while the vibrant AMOLED display took care of the rest. Likewise, the eight-megapixel camera is probably the highlight of the C7. The zoom mechanism is smooth in comparison with most other handsets, and there's plenty of after effects you can apply to improve your photos, including the ability to eliminate red-eye. The dual-LED flash, which can also be used while recording video, was particularly powerful, so much so that we'd advise against snapping too close to someone's face as it left us startled and seeing spots.
When we reviewed the Nokia N8 we praised the improved Symbian^3, though at the same highlighting its limitations. Both Android and now Windows have come on in leaps and bounds in terms of usability and features, while Symbian is timidly shuffling forward. The Nokia C7 is the perfect example of this. The camera and mapping credentials are impressive enough, as is the design. Yet the crowded widgets, restricted customisation and general lack of fluidity means we'd choose Android, Windows or Apple over Symbian all day long.

Lara's Own Regiment was the Royal guard of the Kingdom of Torch.
It was formed in 1921 PD and named after Lara Novakhovskaya, one of Queen Berry's original Amazon bodyguards, who gave her life saving the young monarch from a biotoxin assassination attempt by the Mesan Alignment. The name was chosen on the queen's insistence.
All members of Lara's Own were carefully picked and had their mind-glow checked by a treecat, initially Oliver Wendell Holmes. (CS2)

George Zimmerman, yes, the George Zimmerman who was acquitted after shooting Trayvon Martin, has been arrested for domestic violence after attacking his pregnant girlfriend. A brief news release from the Seminole County Sheriff's Office stated that George Zimmerman was being held on domestic violence related charges after an incident with his girlfriend. As an added twist to this, George Zimmerman's girlfriend claims that she is pregnant.
Zimmerman is being held at John Polk Correctional Facility, as he waits a hearing on the domestic violence incident.
Neighbors said that Zimmerman's truck had been parked outside of his girlfriend's dwelling for about a month. Zimmerman recently was divorced from his wife, following another potential domestic violence incident with his wife and father-in-law. Zimmerman was ultimately not charged in that case, but he may not be so lucky in this one.
In case anyone doubted after the Trayvon Martin killing (in which Martin was unarmed, and Zimmerman was told repeatedly by law enforcement to not pursue Martin) that George Zimmerman is a violent person, this case of domestic violence ought to put those ideas to rest. Zimmerman became a dubious cause célèbre for second amendment activists during the Trayvon Martin trial. The claim was that Zimmerman was just protecting himself. Now he seems to have run out of allies, including lawyer Mark O'Mara, who represented Zimmernam during the Trayvon Martin trial, but will not be representing him for this domestic violence case.

Broncos Cheerleader Romi Bean Rules Halloween as T-Rex
In the boldest costume choice ever sported by an NFL cheerleader, Romi Bean dressed as a giant T-Rex (with very short arms that made it difficult to hold pompoms) and, admid other cheerleaders dressed in sexy Dorothy and sexy skeleton outfits, performed her routine flawlessly during the Broncos-Chargers game on October 30, Halloween eve.
ESPN started the viral effect when it captioned Bean's T-Rex dance on its 6.2 million-follower Instagram page with this: "The newest Broncos cheerleader is 65 million years young." Among all the more obvious beauties, Bean's inner beauty — and good humor — came through loud and clear. Way to go, Romi Bean!
Voted the official Team Clown by her teammates, Bean says, "I love making people laugh and I'm always happy to do it at my own expense. I didn't think people would love the costume so much - but I'm so glad Broncos fans got a kick out of it." She continues, "The T-Rex costume is so funny and the sheer size makes it even funnier."
Dancing in the costume was no easy task. "It was harder than I thought dancing in it," Bean says, "the most challenging part was the heat - at one point the whole thing fogged up and I couldn't see anything. But it was also so much fun and the crowd reaction kept me going."
Bean admits she did the entire routine for the first time in the T-Rex costume on Sunday: "I probably should have practiced in advance - but I just went for it on game day." She's now trending on ESPN, Google and Facebook nationally. And, of course, we're quite sure that Bean's contributions to the day helped the Broncos beat the Chargers with a final score of 27-19.

Dash Q300, Canadian aircraft similar to one now registered to Columbian police.
A company trying to get ownership of two $1-million airplane engines that were seized in Colombia has lost its fight in the P.E.I. Court of Appeal.
In a recent decision, Justice John Mitchell wrote the rest of the plane, documents related to its seizure, government administrators and other related parties are all in Colombia.
Mitchell also wrote the police force is a Colombian state agency and the company trying to get the engines is an American company.
"It is only too clear that Prince Edward Island is not the more appropriate forum to hear this case."
The engines in question were on a plane the Colombian government seized in 2011 and sent to Vector Aerospace in Summerside for an overhaul.
That plane entered Colombia without the proper paperwork leading to the seizure.
The Colombian government donated the plane to its national police force.
Florida-based company Dash 224 is pursuing its interest in the plane and trying to get the engines back.
Dash 224 appealed a lower court decision that said in this case, P.E.I. had no jurisdiction to interfere with the actions and legal determination of a foreign state.
The company appealed on several grounds, losing on each of them.
The appeals court awarded the National Police of Colombia $13,928.80 in costs.

Oregon voters might have the chance to overhaul the state's primary voting system this fall. Sponsors of an initiative to create a so-called "Top Two" primary turned in six cases of signatures to the Oregon Secretary of State's office Monday. The measure would let people vote in primaries even if they don't belong to a major political party. The top two vote-getters would advance to the general election, regardless of party. Chief petitioner Jim Kelly says it will give more Oregonians a part in the process.
Kelly: "The common result is that you actually get people who are elected who tend to be more representative of their district as a whole, rather than the extreme partisans at either end of the spectrum."
Nearly one in three Oregon voters doesn't belong to a major party and therefore can't vote in the primary. Washington and California have similar Top Two systems. Critics say they're unpredictable and confusing to voters.

Art Glass Wall Sculpture - STUDIO SALE(ID: A90421)
Created by Martha PfanschmidtOne of a Kind
This image was inspired by the area where the artist lives; A place where boats are made, sailed and enjoyed. Inspired by her experience as a rower, rafter, and kayaker, the artist evokes the feeling of floating quietly on the surface of the water. Glass powders, white sheet glass and glass stringer combine to create this image of a boat. Stringers of glass are tacked to the surface to create another layer of textural interest to the piece, and also to add symbolic imagery. A metal cleat on the back allows for easy hanging using two screws. Piece floats off the wall about an inch.

After the major success of my bootleg of 'Interstellar' that I did back in late 2014, I've decided to make another bootleg for fun. This time from the movie, 'Star Wars: The Force Awakens'.
'The Force' theme has been played in various forms throughout the movie's franchise history. In this case, I used a piece of the theme (composed by John Williams) from Episode VI, "Return of the Jedi".
Let me know what you think by leaving feedback in the comments section. Enjoy!

The patented drawings indicate an old iPhone design with a 30-pin connecter which is associated with iPhone 4S and older devices. They show a wraparound display with thin bezels at the top and bottom edges and do not include a home button, which means that the entire display will be embedded with Touch ID for which Apple has already secured a patent.
Apple to debut curved display with 5.8" iPhone 7S!
'A large majority of portable electronic devices have settled into a standard form factor; namely a flat planar form factor with a display on one side and an opaque housing which contains the electrical components covering the rear surface of the device,' mentioned Apple in the patent notes.
'Unfortunately, this popular form factor, leaves the sides and rear surfaces of the device unused or at best configured with buttons and switches with fixed location and functionality. Since many of these buttons and switches have fixed functionality they cannot always be incorporated into third party applications. Therefore, there exists a need for an improved form factor for portable electronic devices which allows functionality to extend to more than one surface of the device,' the company added.
Smartphone displays have not only become more refined in terms of resolution over the years, but have also started appearing in various devices in curved or bent form factors. While the LG G Flex and G Flex 2 phones introduced vertically-curved displays, Samsung's Galaxy Note Edge, Galaxy S6 Edge and Galaxy S7 Edge phones featured displays that curved at the edges and contained widgets and notifications. However, if Apple does commercialize the recently-granted patent, it would revolutionise the smartphone display genre.
100 million iPhone displays to be made by...Samsung!
As of now, Apple is directing its resources towards developing OLED displays which may feature in its iPhones launching next year. Back in April, The Wall Street Journal's Chinese website reported that Samsung bagged a deal to manufacture 100 million OLED displays for an iPhone to be launched next year. According to 9to5Mac, the deal is worth close to $2.59 billion which means Samsung will earn close to quarter of a billion dollars each year from the deal.
Industry analyst Ming-Chi Kuo also suggested not too long ago that iPhone 7S which will launch in the Fall of 2017 will arrive with a glass body and will sport a curved OLED display with smaller side bezels than those in iPhone 6s display. Apple has also opened a development lab in Taiwan whose sole purpose is to create future iPhone displays that will be thinner yet brighter and sharper than the existing ones.

|592 sq. ft.
|Property type
|Minimum Stay
|2 nights
Stylish, newly renovated and comfortable 2 bedroom apartment on Hayarkon st - 1 across the street from the Marina, Gordon Beach, Ben Gurion Boulevard and close to Ben Yehuda street. Walking distance to all the cool areas in the heart of Tel Aviv. Enjoy all the best cafes, restaurants, bars and shopping in town, literally outside your door!
The apartment is tailored specifically for short term rentals, fully equipped to make your stay most comfortable. It includes 2 bedrooms with a double bed. In one of the rooms the bed can be split into 2 single beds.
The fully equipped kitchen includes a fridge, oven, stovetop, microwave, kettle and dishes. We also offer coffee, tea, olive oil, sugar and other spices and cooking basics.

Paid parking is available close to the apartment, as well as a grocery store right next door, open daily until midnight.
Aside from managing short term apartments, I am also the owner of Simply, Israel - a boutique tourism & concierge services company in Israel. So our guests can also enjoy the knowledge, expertise and services of the company as well! Basically, you get an apartment with your personal concierge desk!
If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact me at any time:)
We are both native Israelis who spent many years living abroad, and enjoy travel.
Today we rent a couple of apartments in Tel Aviv to fellow travelers, in addition to
running our own boutique tourism services company in Israel.
We started Simply, Israel with the hope of indulging the wanderlust of fellow
travelers. We are travelers first, and business people second; and this distinction is
reflected in the way we operate Simply, Israel and our apartments. Instead of offering
customers a one-size-fits-all service, we consider each traveler's expectations,
desires and displeasures, and offer them tours and services ideal for their needs.
We've done the lame tours, the long flights, the missed connections and can empathize
every step of the way. That's why our commitment is to making your visit to Israel
comfortable, and stress-free. It's supposed to be a vacation, after all!
Shirrah Friedman purchased this apartment in 2014
The apartment was better than expected. When we arrived the apartment was spotless and well stocked with shampoo, soap, toilet paper, laundry detergent and fabric softener. Shirrah and her team were always available to answer our questions. The location was ideal for the beach, restaurants and shopping. The parking spot was a bonus and necessary for being in Tel Aviv with a car. Shirrah was very courteous by communicating with us prior to our arrival, notifying us of how to obtain the key, parking lot remote and access to the apartment. This was a truly enjoyable experience. We highly recommend this apartment and would stay here again.
There is really very little to say -- the landlords rented us a perfectly clean, excellently located, brilliant apartment. My daughter teased me that this is the apartment I want when I require. It was perfect.
The apartment is only 5 minutes from the beach but there was no problem with noise. Everything was clean and well equipped. We enjoyed our stay!
Well appointed and walking distance to Gordon Beach. Thx Iris and Shirrah
Not knowing Tel Aviv, I hoped we chose a good location. We were not disappointed as this flat is a 5 minute walk to the beautiful beach, walking distance to dozens of wonderful restaurants, and a great starting point for all the sightseeing there is in Tel Aviv.
The flat was comfortable and having central air was a wonderful respite at the end of a hot day. The bedrooms are comfortable and the updated bathroom very efficient.
The flat was meticulously clean and while we didn't use the kitchen much, it had what we needed to make a quick breakfast.
It's located steps from a grocery store so if you're craving something or ran out it's easy to get things.
The bedroom with the window that faces the street does hear a lot of street noise. And Tel Aviv is active very late into the evening. Also, the lights for the building (which are very helpful if you're out late and night because it helps to keep the area safe and well-lit) shine into the room so if a light sleeper is in this room it may be too bright.
Overall, it was a great place and I'd highly recommend it.
I stayed at this apartment with a friend and we had the most amazing time!
Shirrah & Roei were perfect hosts - they helped us find the place easily, and have prepared the apartment beautifully - it was spotless and had eveyrthing we needed.
The apartment itself is very convenient - great beds! - and it's so close to the beach!! also many great restaurants and bars in the area - no need to travel anywhere.
We will definitely recommend staying here and would love to come back again!
Best location in town! literally down the street from the best beach in Tel Aviv. Close to many restaurants, bars, shops, galleries, and so forth.
While the apartment is right in the heart of the city - it faces a small, quiet street.
