Shamate Pass was a minor pass discovered in the ruins of the former Beiden Pass. [1] It was located near the village of Beiden. [2]
Discovery Edit
Following the destruction of Beiden Pass there was no longer any easy route across the Spine of the World Mountains. The Scorpion scouts who discovered the pass informed the Lion of its existence and entered into an agreement wherein the Scorpion defended the northern entrance to the pass and the Lion defended the southern entrance. [3] It was by happenstance that Matsu Hataki, while searching for his lover's killers, came upon the small pass. [1] Hataki had been married to Bayushi Shamate, who joined her husband's family as Matsu Shamate. She had died shortly thereafter of mysterious causes. [3]
Naming Edit
Hataki encountered the nine men, including Bayushi Kuemon [4] [5], responsible for Bayushi Shamate's death. He fought and killed all nine, although succumbed to the wounds he suffered shortly after. The Pass was named for his lover, to keep her memory alive. [1] [6] [7] A peasant hid in the nearby rocks had witnessed the battle and carried word of it to Matsu Nimuro, who ordered that the pass be named in honor of Hataki's love. The Scorpion Clan Champion Bayushi Yojiro agreed, and both clans agreed to use the pass in peace. [3]
Protection Edit
Situated between Lion and Scorpion lands [8] saw an uncharacteristic level of co-operation between the two clans, which many believed to be unable to last. [1]
Oni's Eye Edit
In 1170 the Scorpion Clan rebuilt a temple south of the mountains a day's travel from the Pass. Inside they gathered the scrolls recovered from the Hidden Temple, which in turn had been stolen from Otosan Uchi by the kolat. Beneath the temple they secretely located the Oni's Eye. [9]
Scorpion - Lion Conflict Edit
In 1199 Lion made allegations that the Scorpion were using trade caravans to move information and spies through Shamate Pass under the pretense of supplying their fortifications at the Second Pit. Eventually, conflict escalated and war was petitioned by the Lion. [10] After their defeat at the Second Pit the Lion were routed from Shamate Pass in the year 1200. [11] The Matsu counterattack seized the pass and the Lion forces entered the Scorpion territory. [12]

Bankruptcy Law
Bankruptcy Law Questions? Ask a Bankruptcy Lawyer.
I would like to file for personal bankruptcy for my personal debts to include my short sale balance of $500k, credit lines and credit cards, IRS balances, etc. Totaling almost$800k, however I own an S Corporation and want to protect assets of the S-Corp. My Question is: Can I file personal bankruptcy while owning an S-Corporation, and if so, will the S-Corp be impacted in anyway? If I cannot, can I transfer ownership of the S-Corp to another, and then file bk. What help can be offered to get relief of the debt? Also, can the debtors come after belongings in my home?
Hello and thank you for allowing me the opportunity to assist you.
Question: "Can I file personal bankruptcy while owning an S Corporation, and if so, will the S Corp be impacted in anyway? if I cannot, can I transfer ownership of the S Corp to another, and then file bk. What help can be offered to get relief of the debt? Also, can the debtors come after belongings in my home?"
Answer: Yes, you can file for personal bankruptcy while owning an S Corp. The S Corp is one of your assets, so it will be viewed in that light. Depending on its value, the chapter of bankruptcy you file under, etc., it could be sold, or the income could be used to pay unsecured creditors.
Unfortunately, you cannot transfer ownership of the S Corp in order to avoid it being used to repay creditors. That is called a fraudulent transfer (or sometimes called a fraudulent conveyance), and can be reversed by the court so that it can be used to repay creditors.
When you file for bankruptcy, some of your assets will be "exempt." This means that such assets cannot be used to repay creditors. You can find an entire list of exempt assets HERE. If an asset is not exempt, then that means it can be used to repay creditors, and therefore, depending on the chapter of bankruptcy you file under, it can be sold.
Have I satisfactorily addressed your concerns? If not, then please feel free to ask for clarification.
Thank you and good luck!
I have an additional question. If I were to transfer ownership of the of the S-Corp and then wait two years to file BK what could or would happen? What can the creditors do to me? I do not own any real estate and don't have any much money in my checking account and my credit has been destroyed already.
Question: "I have an additional question, if I were to transfer ownership of the of the S Corp and then wait 2 years to file BK what could or would happen? What can the creditors do to me? I do not own any real estate and don't have any much money in my checking account and my credit has been destroyed already."
Answer: There are two ways the transfer could be voided. As you alluded, the bankruptcy trustee could void the transfer if it occurs within two years of filing for bankruptcy protection.
However, California law also governs fraudulent transfers, and there is no time limit. Therefore, even if you waited longer than 2 years (to avoid trouble with the bankruptcy trustee), the creditors could still force a reversal of the transfer. Here is a portion of the relevant California law:
3439.04. (a) A transfer made or obligation incurred by a debtor is fraudulent as to a creditor, whether the creditor's claim arose before or after the transfer was made or the obligation was incurred, if the debtor made the transfer or incurred the obligation as follows:
(1) With actual intent to hinder, delay, or defraud any creditor of the debtor.
(2) Without receiving a reasonably equivalent value in exchange for the transfer or obligation, and the debtor either:
(A) Was engaged or was about to engage in a business or a transaction for which the remaining assets of the debtor were unreasonably small in relation to the business or transaction.
(B) Intended to incur, or believed or reasonably should have believed that he or she would incur, debts beyond his or her ability to pay as they became due.
3439.07. (a) In an action for relief against a transfer or obligation under this chapter, a creditor, subject to the limitations in Section 3439.08, may obtain:
(1) Avoidance of the transfer or obligation to the extent necessary to satisfy the creditor's claim.
(2) An attachment or other provisional remedy against the asset transferred or its proceeds in accordance with the procedures described in Title 6.5 (commencing with Section 481.010) of Part 2 of the Code of Civil Procedure.
(3) Subject to applicable principles of equity and in accordance with applicable rules of civil procedure, the following:
(A) An injunction against further disposition by the debtor or a transferee, or both, of the asset transferred or its proceeds.
(B) Appointment of a receiver to take charge of the asset transferred or its proceeds.
(C) Any other relief the circumstances may require.
So, the creditors may still have an argument to go after the S Corp. Assuming they didn't, however, and you are discharged in bankruptcy, then there is nothing your creditors can do to you. As you mentioned, your credit is already destroyed, and that's about it. At that point you can just move on and begin rebuilding your credit.

Chinese phone manufacturer Huawei has a new model on the horizon, with the Honor 8 set to be officially announced on the 11th of July, 2016.
The Honor 8 has been the subject of the rumour machine for a good while now, with a recent submission to TENAA in China also revealing some of its specs. We're looking at a 5.2 inch screen at 1080p, as well as up to 4 gigs of RAM and 128 gigs of storage. We're hearing there's a 12MP shooter on the back (there may be some kind of dual lens setup) and an 8MP selfie cam.
Huawei has sent out official invites to the reveal of the new phone, which will take place in China on the 11th of July at 18.30 local time - that's 11.30 in the morning Irish time. It is expected that the phone will be available very soon after in China but there's no word on an international roll out just yet.
Huawei has been upping its international game in recent years, taking aim at the top players in the field like Apple and Samsung. With a huge user base in China a foothold in the West is all it will take to really challenge the top smartphone manufacturers in the world.

Friend zone
In popular culture, the friend zone is a situation in which one member of a friendship wishes to enter into a romantic or sexual relationship, while the other does not.[1][2][3] It is generally considered to be an undesirable or dreaded[4] situation by the rejected person.[5] The sense of zone is one of being stuck in an unwanted and distant relationship. The rejected person is said to have been put "in" the object of their affection's "friend zone", and this can be verbified, as in the sentence "So, she's friendzoned you."[6]
The concept of the friend zone has been criticized as misogynistic, because of a belief that the concept implies an expectation that women should have sex with men whom they have no interest in, simply because they were nice to them.[7][8][9] This is closely associated with so-called "nice guy syndrome".
A Chicago Tribune writer suggested there were a few situations in which someone might become relegated to the friend zone:
- person A is not sufficiently attracted to person B
- person A misinterprets nonverbal cues from person B signaling their interest in deepening the relationship
- person B does something that is a turn-off to person A, such as making offensive statements.[10]
Writer Jeremy Nicholson in Psychology Today suggested that when a romantic pursuer, in order to avoid being rejected up front, uses a ploy of friendly acts as a "back door" way in to a hoped-for relationship that this approach rarely works. When it doesn't work, the pursuer consequently finds themselves in the friend zone.[11] (However, see "gender differences" section below.)
The term "friend zone" is sometimes used in pick up artist (PUA) literature, where it forms part of PUA theories about female sexual attraction to males; however, PUA theories are controversial and have been criticised by feminists.
Descriptions of the friend zoneEdit
One man likened being "in the friend zone" to being a "third wheel" and having only a platonic relationship with a woman. In another instance, a woman described her male friend, someone she was comfortable with as if he was one of her girlfriends, but their relationship became problematic when he wanted their relationship to develop romantically but she did not.[12]
Marshall Fine of The Huffington Post suggested that the friend zone is "like the penalty box of dating, when your only crime is not being buff and unobtainable."[13] Dating adviser Ali Binazir described the friend zone as Justfriendistan, and wrote that it is a:
- "territory only to be rivaled in inhospitability by the Western Sahara, the Atacama, and Dante's Ninth Circle of Hell."[5]
Mastin Kipp of the Huffington Post described himself as always having girlfriends who were "girls" but were only his "friends", meaning there was no sex between them.[14]
Gender differencesEdit
According to a Chicago Tribune writer, in a friendship between two people, being relegated to the friend zone can happen to either person.[10]
According to some psychologists, the man in a cross-gender friendship is more likely to be attracted to his woman friend than she is to him, and he is more likely to overestimate her interest in a romantic or sexual relationship.[15][16]
Criticism of the termEdit
Feminist bloggers such as Rivu Dasgupta and Amanda Marcotte have argued that the friend zone concept is misogynistic.[3][8] Dasgupta sees the friend zone as being rooted in male narcissism.[3] The nice guy concept has been criticized as a gender trope with an underlying message that kind acts demand a sexual or romantic reward.[3] Dasgupta and Marcotte say that the concept implies that if a woman and a man have a platonic friendship and the man becomes romantically attracted to the woman, then the woman has an obligation to return his affection.[3] A woman who does not return her "nice guy" male friend's affection is viewed negatively or seen to be at fault.[3]
What feminists object to is that acts of "serial kindness" are not done in a spirit of selfless friendship, but as favors demanding compensation, favors which impose on the woman a reciprocal obligation of sexual reward.[3] Further, some feminists are bothered that the agenda in such relationships is driven by men's needs for sex rather than women's needs for friendship. Ryan Milner of the College of Charleston argued that the friend zone concept is a nuanced and harmful aspect of patriarchal authority and male domination,[6] and wrote how women could be seen negatively as a result:
Women who put 'nice guys' in the friend zone were accused of abuse, manipulation, and neglect ... Friend Zone Fiona is premised on this perceived injustice. Fiona 'loves you ... like a brother', 'totally wants you ... to meet the right girl someday', and 'invites you over ... to fix her computer'. The image juxtaposes the first clause premise and the second clause punch line to elevate hopes, and then crush them.— Ryan Milner, 2013[6]
The Guardian contributor Ally Fogg argues that while the friend zone does not exist in a literal sense, men who use the term "friend zone" are not necessarily misogynists who feel entitled to sex. He states the term's usage does reflect a genuine emotional experience for straight men with low self-esteem and self-confidence. He speculates these men don't feel entitled to sex, thus accept and even expect the rejection they receive. He places blame on ingrained gender roles that expect men to be the ones to initiate romantic advances and place an undue burden on more shy and reserved men. Fogg says, "it requires a particularly bleak view of human nature to assume that this means the friendship was never genuine, or that he secretly believes the woman should have been obliged to have sex with him," warns that "there is a danger in labeling men like this as misogynists or creeps", and says that the shaming of sexually reserved men is related to shaming of sexually assertive women.[15]
Popular cultureEdit
The term was popularized by a 1994 episode of the American sitcom Friends entitled "The One with the Blackout", where the character Ross Geller, who was lovesick for Rachel Green, was described by character Joey Tribbiani as being the "mayor of the friend zone".[17] The question of whether a man can ever "escape the friend zone and begin dating one of his female friends" helped make the "geek dream couple"[18] of Ross and Rachel storyline dramatically compelling, according to viewers.[citation needed] The person that does not reciprocate romantic interest is sometimes termed a friendzoner.[19]
Since then, the friend zone concept has often been a plot element in television shows and films. The 2005 film Just Friends features a main character, played by Ryan Reynolds, reunited after ten years with his friend played by Amy Smart, who informs him that she loves him "like a brother", essentially dashing any hopes of him having her as a girlfriend.
MTV aired a reality show entitled FriendZone from 2011 to 2013. Each episode is based around "crushers" who are friends with the "crushees", but want to begin relationships with them. In an interview with a national publication, a producer said:
The idea for the show came out of my own experience. Unfortunately, I know the pain of telling the girl of your dreams you love them and want to take the relationship to the next level only to be told they don't feel the same. I figured if it happened to me, it might be something others could relate to as well. If it works, you have the beginnings of a great love story. If it doesn't, well, pain and humiliation make great TV, too.— an MTV producer[20][not in citation given]

E! Online
Well now, it sounds as if Miley Cyrus is off to practice her sucking prowess anywhere but the Hotel Transylvania. Read on and get your friggin' minds out of the gutter, you lovable perverts, you!
According to E! Online a rep for Sony Pictures has confirmed that the singer is no longer set to voice Mavis, the daughter of Dracula (Adam Sandler), in the Sony Picture Animation production. Taking her place will be her fellow former Disney star pal Selena Gomez.
Welcome to the Hotel Transylvania, Dracula's (Sandler) lavish five-stake resort, where monsters and their families can live it up, free from meddling from the human world. But here's a little known fact about Dracula: He is not only the Prince of Darkness; he is also a dad. Over-protective of his teenage daughter, Mavis, Dracula fabricates tales of elaborate dangers to dissuade her adventurous spirit. As a haven for Mavis, he opens the Hotel Transylvania, where his daughter and some of the world's most famous monsters – Frankenstein and his bride, the Mummy, the Invisible Man, a family of werewolves, and more – can kick back in safety and peace. For Drac, catering to all of these legendary monsters is no problem – but his world could come crashing down when one ordinary guy stumbles on the hotel and takes a shine to Mavis.

What a great place for family and friends to retreat to. We rented both homes. Great location. Beautiful view of the valley. Great outdoor area with fire pit to spend a day or an evening.
Barbara and her husband are very accommodating to what we needed for the pre wedding and post wedding funking. We had a great tour of the farm and we're able to help feed the animals.
What a great stay! Was the perfect size for my family and had everything we needed. It was great to not need to pack the entire house especially on a 6 hour drive. Looking over the valley from the front yard was an extra perk and so relaxing. We got to see hot air balloons and skydivers! It was especially nice to be close to town but not feel like it. The owner Barbara was extremely accommodating & one of the nicest people you'll meet. Can't wait to visit here again someday.
We loved the farm and the kids loved visiting with the cows every day. The house and property was clean and Barbara and Jay are the best and make everything so easy and pleasant. We enjoyed a Bon fire and grilled some fish just like home! We wished we didn't have to leave.
My family needed a change of scenery, and we got that along with fresh air, beautiful views, cows coming up close to the house, everything I imagined staying on a farm would be. The house had everything we needed. Barbara, (owner) was just a phone call away, gave us a tour of the property, and was a wonderful host. I cant wait to come back again.
Our stay at Hagen Farm was phenomenal! Barb was more than accommodating and let us tour the barns to show the kids the baby pigs and lambs. We stayed in both houses and they are very well accommodated...we had everything we needed! The grounds were very well manicured and perfect for our family stay. We loved being greeted by the cows each morning. Absolutely loved the old farmhouse feel in both houses. The original Tinker Toys were an additional hit for the adults! I highly recommend a stay here and will definitely book another family trip here in the future!
We knew what we were renting, old farm houses. They are well kept, clean and met our families needs for our wedding weekend. Thank you!
The farm and home is situated in the hub of activity in the Snohomish valley, and close enough to local hiways and freeways to gain access to downtown Seattle to the south, discount shopping and casinos to the north, the Cascade Mts. 1 hr to the east, and Puget Sound 15 min. to the west! Centrally located for everything the NW has to offer! Very family friendly. Perfect for wedding parties to rent one or both homes on the farm. Having family in town for the holidays? No room at your place? The farm is a perfect place to land! Make it your home away from home while vacationing, taking a girl's weekend,visiting family in the area! You are literally in the heart of the valley, within minutes of all local activities,events and festivals. No long country drives, no neighbors,and the owner is not overlooking your farm stay while here. But, we live on the same farm, so if you should want a farm tour, please ask! We love to share the farm!

Forty-eight Oxen Saved! by Gau Raksha Dal Punjab
On two different occasions within a two-week period Satish Kumar and his dedicated men of Gau Raksha Dal Punjab intercepted two trucks headed for a slaughterhouse in Agra and safely located the oxen they carried in goshallas in the Vraja Mandala area.The first truck carried twentyeight healthy Kangrej oxen and the second one carried twenty full size and healthy desi oxen.
The two trucks and crewmembers were turned over to the Mathura and Chatta police stations where they were booked for illegal transportation of kine.
Satish Ji has successfully put an end to illegal transportation of cows in Punjab and is now training others how to stop it in other states. He has found much support in the Vrindavana area and is organizing to expand his activities along the Delhi-Agra highway where reportedly many trucks illegally carry kine to illegal slaughterhouses in Agra and the surrounding area.The captured trucks were new ten and twelvewheelers and were identified as carrying livestock as they displayed certain movements not characteristic of vehicles carrying stationary goods.The oxen were packed in tightly and each was restrained by a nose harness. Though it is not accurately known, it is suspected that the oxen had to endure this tortuous treatment for more than thirty hours.
One of the trucks had two men riding in the compartment with the oxen and among their possessions was found syringes and tranquilizing drugs to keep the oxen sedated during travel.
An extensive network is forming of men who are trained to identify vehicles carrying livestock. When one is spotted, they call ahead to others who prepare a police roadblock to intercept the illegal transporters.
On one of the operations in Chatta, just twenty kilometers from Vrindavan, the butcher truck penetrated the roadblock and fled but two heroic go-sevaksrisked their lives by climbing on top while two others sped ahead on a motorcycle to prepare another roadblock. A few kilometers ahead the motorcycle team convinced another truck driver to block the highway with
his vehicle.
The two butchers riding among the oxen drew their knives and attempted to stab the go-sevaks who were riding on the canvas covering above the oxen while the driver swerved and swayed the truck at ninety kilometers perhour in the attempt to throw the go-sevaks off. Several members of Gau Raksha Dal followed behind in their vehicles along with the
When confronted with the second impenetrable roadblock the butchers abruptly stopped and fled on foot into the fields of buckwheat bordering the highway. After a heated chase through muddy fields, the butchers were apprehended and turned over to the police who transported them and the truck back to Chatta.
Satish ji then called his Vrindavan contacts and arranged go-sevaks cheered as each handsome ox was unloaded and escorted to the goshalla where fresh food and water awaited them. It appears that only one of the oxen was injured while being transported. for the safe delivery of the oxen to a goshalla near Chatta. The The first operation began at 2:00 p.m. and the rescued oxen were not unloaded safely until 10:00 p.m. Despite the fact that the butchers took special care to conceal the oxen in their new truck still the expert members of Gau Raksha Dal were able to detect that the truck was illegally transporting livestock. Assisted by the Mathura Police the suspected truck was stopped and an inspection from on top of the compartment revealed the truck carried twenty-eight magnificent Kangrej oxen.
The dedicated work of the Gau Raksha Dal Punjab has the potential to restore Bharat to its former glory. All go-bhaktas must do their best to support them in all ways possible.

Cleaning clams, also called purging, requires that you soak them in cold seawater for up to two days. To steam clams, bring covered water or stock to a boil, add the fresh clams, and replace the lid to let them steam until their shells open.Continue Reading
Letting the clams breathe before cooking removes the sand and grit they take in during feeding. Although clams breathe best in their native sea water, you can make your own by adding 2 tablespoons plus 1 teaspoon of sea salt to a quart of water. Leaving the clams in a bowl in the refrigerator overnight keeps sand out of your meal.
Once the clams have purged, they're ready to steam. Clans can be steamed in 2 cups of seasoned water, but many cooks prefer to steam in buttered white wine, seafood base or vegetable stock, according to their desired flavor profile.
Add the liquid to a pan, cover with a lid and bring the liquid to a rolling boil. Once the liquid is steaming heavily, add the clams and cover again. It should take about 10 minutes for the clams to steam through. Start checking at about seven minutes and remove the clams with opened shells. At the end of cooking, discard any clams that are still closed.Learn more about Seafood

Manchester: Louis van Gaal would see this season as a success if they fell short in the race for Champions League qualification, but won the FA Cup.
Louis van Gaal
Life after Alex Ferguson has so far proved difficult at Old Trafford, but David Moyes' successor began brightly enough as United finished fourth in his first season at the helm. Van Gaal's second campaign has been less comfortable, though, and missing out on the Champions League looks a distinct possibility, despite having recently reduced the gap to the top four to two points.
United face Everton at Wembley on Saturday looking to book a place in the FA Cup final, with Van Gaal targeting the club's first title win in the competition since 2004. "It's always a success when you win a title," Van Gaal said when asked if this would be a successful season if they finished fifth but won the Cup. "But for the club it's more important to qualify for the Champions League to show ourselves at the highest level."

from My Daily Informer:
After the United States and "Coalition" aircraft attacked Syrian Army positions "by mistake" – which killed 62 and injured over 100 Syrian Soldiers – Russia says the next mistake will be the pilot's last, as new Rules of Engagement are now in effect.
Two days ago, on 17 September, US-led coalition jets bombed Syrian government forces' positions near the eastern city of Deir ez-Zor, killing 62 troops and "paving the way" for Islamic State militants, the Syrian Army General Command told the state television.
The bombing took place on al-Tharda Mountain in the region of Deir ez-Zor and caused casualties and destruction on the ground, Syria's official SANA news agency reported on Saturday.
US & US-controlled forces haven't fulfilled any Syria ceasefire deal obligations – Russian Army
Sixty-two Syrian soldiers were killed and over 100 injured in the airstrike by the US-led coalition, Russia's Defense Ministry spokesman, Major-General Igor Konashenkov, said, citing information received from the Syrian General Command.
The Russian Defense Ministry said that the aircraft which carried out the bombings had entered Syrian airspace from the territory of Iraq.
Four strikes against Syrian positions was performed by two F-16 jet fighters and two A-10 support aircraft, it added.
"If the airstrike was caused by the wrong coordinates of targets than it's a direct consequence of the stubborn unwillingness of the American side to coordinate with Russia in its actions against terrorist groups in Syria," Konashenkov stressed.
The Defense Ministry also confirmed a report by SANA that an Islamic State offensive began right after Syrian Army positions were hit from the air.
"Immediately after the airstrike by coalition planes, Islamic State militants launched their offensive. Fierce fighting with the terrorists is currently underway in the area of the airport where for a long a time humanitarian aid for civilians was parachuted," Konashenkov said.
The timing of the ISIS attack, coming within 7 minutes of the US air strikes against the Syrian Army, has led some to conclude the US is providing air cover for ISIS Terrorists!
The Syrian General Command called the bombing a "serious and blatant aggression" against Syrian forces, and said it was "conclusive evidence" that the US and its allies support IS militants.
According to a news release of the US Department of Defense, the coalition's aviation performed combat missions in Deir ez-Zor on Saturday.
"We are aware of the reports and checking with Centcom and CJTF (Combined Joint Task Force)," the Pentagon told RT.
The US Central Command later has issued a statement, saying that it had no intention of targeting Syrian government forces near Deir ez-Zor.
"Syria is a complex situation with various military forces and militias in close proximity, but [the] coalition would not intentionally strike a known Syrian military unit," the statement read.
CENTCOM promised that the strike and circumstances surrounding it will be reviewed "to see if any lesson can be learned."
An unnamed US military official told Reuters that he was "pretty sure" that the targets hit in US-led coalition air strike on Saturday had been Syrian forces.
According to the official, the bombings in Deir ez-Zor were carried out using US intelligence, which was being gathered for days.
The US says its attack stopped as soon as Russia notified the American side that they had been hitting the Syrian military, he added. But that does not fit the facts.
According to both Russian and Syrian Army reports, the American jets were repeatedly told they were attacking the wrong side but continued attacking until aircraft were "painted" by Russian S-300 anti-aircraft missile systems. It was only after the surface-to-air missile locked-on to the aircraft that they cut off the attack.
After the attack, the US told Russia and Syria they would investigate how this "mistake" happened and report back. No report was forthcoming. SO both Russia and Syria requested — and were granted — an Emergency meeting of the UN Security Council for the purpose of the US explaining why it attacked the Syrian Army.

Description: Farmers in Laos, U.S. allies during the Vietnam War, refugees in Thailand, citizens of the Western world—the stories of the Hmong who now live in America have been told in detail through books and articles and oral histories over the past several decades. Like any immigrant group, members of the first generation may yearn for the past as they watch their children and grandchildren find their way in the dominant culture of their new home. For Hmong people born and educated in the United States, a definition of self often includes traditional practices and tight-knit family groups but also a distinctly Americanized point of view. How do Hmong Americans negotiate the expectations of these two very different cultures?In an engaging series of essays featuring a range of writing styles, leading scholars, educators, artists, and community activists explore themes of history, culture, gender, class, family, and sexual orientation, weaving their own stories into depictions of a Hmong American community where people continue to develop complex identities that are collectively shared but deeply personal as they help to redefine the multicultural America of today.Contributors: Mary Louise Buley-Meissner, Amy DeBroux, Jeremy Hein, Vincent K.

J. K. (Joanne Kathleen) Rowling was born in Gloucestershire, U. K. on July 31, 1965. She also writes fiction novels under the name of Robert Galbraith. Rowling attended Tutshill Primary and then went on to Wyedean Comprehensive where she was made Head Girl in her final year. She received a degree in French from Exeter University. She later took some teaching classes at Moray House Teacher Training College and a teacher-training course in Manchester, England. This extensive education created a perfect foundation to spark the Harry Potter series that Rowling is renowned for. After college, Rowling moved to London to work for Amnesty International, where she researched human rights abuses in Francophone Africa, and worked as a bilingual secretary. In 1992, Rowling quit office work to move to Portugal and teach English as a Second Language. There she met and married her husband, a Portuguese TV journalist. But the marriage dissolved soon after the birth of their daughter. It was after her stint teaching in Portugal that Rowling began to write the premise for Harry Potter. She returned to Britain and settled in Edinburgh to be near her sister, and attempted to at least finish her book, before looking for another teaching job. Rowling was working as a French teacher when her book, Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone was published in June of 1997 and was an overnight sensation. Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone won the British Book Awards Children's Book of the Year, was shortlisted for the Guardian Fiction Award, and received a Commended citation in the Carnegie Medal awards. She also received 8,000 pounds from the Scottish Arts Council, which contributed to the finishing touches on The Chamber of Secrets. Rowling continued on to win the Smarties Book Prize three years in a row, the only author ever to do so. At the Bologna Book Fair, Arthur Levine from Scholastic Books, bought the American rights to Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone for the unprecedented amount of $105,000.00. The book was retitled Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone for it's American release, and proceeded to top the Best Seller's lists for children's and adult books. The American edition won Best of the Year in the School Library Journal, Publishers Weekly, Parenting Magazine and the Cooperative Children's Book Center. It was also noted as an ALA Notable Children's Book as well as Number One on the Top Ten of ALA's Best Books for Young Adults. The Harry Potter Series consists of seven books, one for each year of the main character's attendance at the Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. All of the books in the series have been made into successful movies. She has also written Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them, Quidditch Through the Ages, and The Tales of Beedle the Bard. Rowling's first novel for an adult audience,The Casual Vacancy, was published by Little Brown in September 2012. She published two bestselling fiction novels under the name of Robert Galbraith: The Cuckoo's Calling and The Silkworm.

About us
A first date is a starting point in a relationship. Unless the two of you have been friends for a while and already know each other things can be a little awkward. To get through those awkward moments there are a few things to know that could make things a little easier.
First date ideas – suitable for Christian dating too:
Christian dating usually means that Christians are searching for others who believe the same way they do. The moral standards are hopefully high and like everyone else Christian are hoping to find someone who is kind, respectful, caring and loving. With that in mind here are some dating ideas.
1. Go some place light and fun like miniature golfing – This can be a fun date and the mood is usually really relaxed and you can talk to one another. You will get a chance to laugh and observe each other under the stress of embarrassment when you can't get the little ball into the little hole.
2. Dinner date – Try not to monopolize the conversation talking about yourself. Be inquisitive. Focus on the person you are with, abstain from drilling the other person with questions.
3. Always be truthful. The first date is where you make your first impression so don't tangle yourself up in fairy tales. If you begin telling lies you will be busy trying to track them all. You will screw it up sooner or later. No one wants to be with someone they can't trust.
4. If you met online and are meeting for the first time in person (ladies) you should meet somewhere open and public. Have a plan in place so that you may leave easily if you become uncomfortable with the situation. Meeting online is a great gift from the Internet, but it can be dangerous. Abstain from going to secluded areas at night.
5. Don't be late for your date and end the date on time. Give yourselves a chance to enjoy one another, but don't over do it.
6. Lastly, don't go for the long passionate kiss on the first date. Flags should go up. Why – how many other first dates has this person had this month and kissed in the same way?
Latest Members
Advice to improve your relationship. Put some adventure into your love life.
Online connections are made more each day as dating services increase on the Internet. Services billed "Christian" are also increasing. If you are a Christian you must be careful on these site. Not everyone you meet in these places are "Christians." As soon as you can, get to the point with people you meet. What do they believe? Are they Christ minded? Many can talk the talk…

Young 'Irish lass' Cecelia Ahern off and running in USA
By Olivia Barker, USA TODAY
NEW YORK It's one thing to conquer the book publishing world at an age when most writers maybe have a chapter pounded out on their laptops.
It's quite another to pull off a media hat trick as Cecelia Ahern, 26, has done.
Sure, she now has four novels in the library, including the just-published There's No Place Like Here, about a missing-persons investigator who herself goes missing.
But she also has seen her first novel become a movie, P.S. I Love You, about a young widow (Hilary Swank) who soldiers on with the help of letters left by her late husband. And she's watching her ideas play out on a hit TV show, Samantha Who?. It's about the (mis)adventures of an amnesiac woman, the Golden Globe-nominated Christina Applegate, who rediscovers herself.
Add in that Ahern, who's from Ireland, is disarmingly humble and has succeeded in America in only four years, and you'd think struggling writers would want to toss a fly in her ink.
On the contrary, she says, she hasn't sensed any jealousy or bitterness. "People are for me, to my face, being so excited and happy and, 'My God, you're so young. That's fantastic!' " Ahern says over breakfast at Le Parker Meridien hotel, where she stayed while promoting P.S. I Love You the movie and There's No Place Like Here the book.
"Of course, I understand if you're a writer who's been banging on doors with an idea for the past 30 years," you might be miffed, Ahern says. "But it might be also hopeful. I think it's just hopeful that someone young with an idea can make things happen."
Along the way, Ahern has picked up some fairly famous colleagues. "She's unbelievable in the sense that she's so young, and she wrote this book. She's ridiculously young," says P.S. co-star Lisa Kudrow. "Have you seen her? Gorgeous. She's petite and gorgeous with blond hair and perfect fine little features — sweet-looking. She's everything you expect of a fresh-faced Irish lass."
Her third novel, If You Could See Me Now, is in production as a musical starring Hugh Jackman.
Her mushrooming accomplishments mean her status as the daughter of Bertie Ahern, prime minister of Ireland, finally is getting buried in her bio. But that doesn't mean she's swapping a political pedigree for a Hollywood persona.
"I don't play that game. I don't really get into all that stuff. Nothing has changed in that regard," says Ahern, who does enjoy the fashions of Marc Jacobs and Jimmy Choo. When asked the designer of her black patent Mary Janes, she grabs her stiletto heel and takes a gander at the name on the sole: British cobbler Rupert Sanderson.
Ahern lives in Dublin with her longtime boyfriend, actor David Keoghan, and comes to the USA for work every two months or so.
"You can choose to live that life or you don't. You may go to every party that you're invited to and be seen everywhere, or you just don't. You just live your normal life."
Which means that when she does experience a glimpse of glimmer, as on the red carpet for the P.S. premiere last month, "I can just stand there and be me" (black Prada one-sleeved dress notwithstanding). Besides, "I'm too busy traveling and promoting and writing."
No joke: The writer scratched out a screenplay over a week last January — "night and day, not leaving my house" and, as always, in longhand. She finished her fifth novel, Thanks for the Memories, in the spring.
Ahern has been scribbling in journals since she was 10 years old: "I've been writing so much, it's a pain in my back."
The morning of Applegate's nomination, Ahern, who as co-creator reads each script to ensure that the tone is consistent with her original vision, leaped around her hotel room, screaming.
In the meantime, that Samantha Who? writers are on strike is "a shame, really, when we're doing so well. I just hope it's resolved really, really quickly."
Still, "you have to look at the positive. It gives a lot of breathing time and thinking time. … You're not on strike from thinking."

Conservative radio talk show host Sean Hannity had his hands full with this South Carolina delegate Monday evening when he wanted stressed the people should not be excluded from voting to be replaced by the delegates who are not voted on by the same voters.
I understand this because it's what I have been saying the last couple of weeks after I learned about Colorado's rules. The Colorado GOP has every right to make up their rules, and the candidates must know them, however if those rules cut millions of votes from going to the polls to vote for a candidate it's wrong.
This caller had some real looney tidbits but the more I listen to her the more I heard establishment elite. She didn't want to be called that, but she gave her money, she worked the phones, and she is the party all the time, so she's justified to think she has more of a say in who is elected over those who are deciding to join the party for the first time.
Here are some excerpts of the audio:
"It's not the people's candidate, it's the party's candidate until we have nominee"
"The party is the GOP, the grand ole party"
"This is not a populist vote to get our nominee, all of America votes once we have our nominee"
"The party is composed of the GOP party"
Listen to this audio and tell me what you think of this exchange. Was Sean right? Was the delegate right?
Do you believe what this delegate had to say? She considers herself not an elitist but she speaks otherwise. Share your opinions (below) and add this story to your Facebook/Twitter page.

Quotes used for the challenge:
"Handle each bird kindly and thoughtfully." A Well Behaved Parrot
"Small sticks and stones became specialized tools and weapons." Weaponry, an Illustrated History.
"Yes! Of course I can!" All I Really Need to Know I Learned in Kindergarten
The Lord of the Birds
"I can't believe he's stuck in hawk shape," Denna groused as she stepped carefully through the mews, trying to identify her lord and master.
"It isn't his fault," Cara replied, "the wizard did something."
She was interrupted by frantic squawking as Denna offered her Agiel to one of the birds as a perch.
Cara grabbed her arm, gloved fingers digging into flesh, "Handle each bird kindly and thoughtfully!" she exclaimed. "You do not know which is Lord Rahl!"
A majestic Dusky Hawk in the corner watched the proceedings with hooded raptor eyes of an unusual electric blue.
Interlopers. In his kingdom.
He didn't think so.
With flicks of feathers and clicks of the beak, the Lord of the Birds issued his orders to the hawks of his kingdom.
The birds to the back of the mews slipped out on silent wings to gather ammunition. Small sticks and stones became specialized tools and weapons.
The Lord of the Birds distributed the weapons among his followers as the ugly red clad intruders came ever farther into his kingdom.
Once they had foolishly allowed themselves to become surrounded, the Lord of the Birds shrieked his battle cry, signaling all of his hawks to dive bomb the enemy and pelt them with rocks.
The air was filled with hawkish battle cries, the enemy ducked in a futile effort to avoid the stones being flung at their faces. One of them fell, landing in a fresh pile of bird excrement.
Cara laughed at Denna's misfortune, until a hawk flew at her face, talons reaching for her eyes.
Afraid to hurt the animals for fear that one of them was Lord Rahl, Cara made her retreat, Denna crawling behind her on hands and knees.
Once they were outside, they looked back to see all of the hawks bowing, heads down and wings spread, to one kingly red-winged raptor who perched as high as possible.
Blue eyes watched them, filled with triumph and challenge.
"Can you tell which one he is now?" Cara asked.
Her leathers spotted with bird droppings, small bruises forming on her face where she had been hit with rocks, Denna said, "Yes! Of course I can!"
