So I've noticed that no matter the couple it seems like one person is "In love" more than the other. I myself, being a hopeless romantic is always the "more in love". My questions are...
1. Which one are you most often?
2. Are you that person in the relationship 100% of the time, 50/50... if different please put in reply?
3. How do you think is getting the better? Is it the person more in love, or the other person who is less likely to get hurt in the end (less emotionally involved)?
Most Helpful Girl
Unfortunately, I'm always less emotionally involved than the person I'm in a relationship with.. Not that I do it on purpos, but it's just how things always end up being.
I'm usually 100% in the relationship at the beginning, when I'm still discovering the other and things are still fun.. but once the passion starts to fade, and the routine settles in, I start getting bored, and It becomes a lot harder for me to be fully in the relationship. (However I never cheat or anything... I jsut lode interest).. and when that happens, I usually end up by breaking up.. Obviously, I don't like being cruel, and I try not to hurt my partners, and if you thing people like don't get hurt at the end, think again.. Everytime, I hope I can jsut setlle in.. but then I get this feeling , like I wanna crawl out of my skin, and it's impossible for me to stay in the relationship, because It's just not fair for the person I'm with. So, break up, spend sometime alone to breath a bit.. then wait until the next time I feel a spark with someone.. and redo everything all over again.
It's love.. one day you're in love, the next one you're out of it... sad, but realistic. And if I EVER have children, I refuse to fill their heads with everlasting love and all that crap, because it doesn't exist (or it's very rare) and they might be too sad without it. Instead I think parents should teach their kids to feel good about themselves at all times, and to teach them how to be happy on their own.00|00|0
Sorry for the typing mistakes :o !! it' 2 am in here and I'm sleepy.
My Ex was the only girl I ever Loved, or said those words to. The other's I "liked/cared about" or lusted for. I was "In love" with my ex as much on the day we broke up as the first day I saw her. And that was after 3+yrs.
Most Helpful Guy
I tend to fall faster than the other person, which is a problem, cause I don't like liking her more than she likes me, cause then my trust issues start to kick in, and I start pushing away and losing interest, while she keeps on catching more and more feelings, to the point where she has lots of feelings, and I have almost none.
I obviously break up once the feelings start going away.
I've never loved, since I don't believe in love.
I'd rather she likes me more than I like her, and then I "catch up" with her.00|00|0

Kylie Jenner wants to open Kylie Cosmetics store
Kylie Jenner wants to open a Kylie Cosmetics store.
The 18-year-old 'Keeping up With the Kardashians' star - who built up her beauty empire over two years before launching this year - has teased she would like to open a shop for her make-up brand, and has revealed plans for an outlet to accompany her e-store are "on the menu" for her ever evolving cosmetics company.
When Kylie was asked by a fan whether she will open a cosmetics shop via Twitter, she replied: "Dats on the menu (sic)."
Meanwhile, Kylie was forced to redesign her e-store earlier this year after it continually crashed on customers due to the high volume of traffic drawn to the platform.
Speaking previously about the amendments made to the web age, she said: "I'm going to change our holding page ("the line" which keeps my site from crashing because of the mass amounts of people) and find an alternative that still keeps my site up and running. I don't like it either. But I love you guys and my passion for my business is very serious. For the many many people who got their hands on one of my glosses or mattes I can't wait to see you in them."
And the teen entrepreneur - who boasts a make-up capsule expanding over 15 lip kits, which include a lipstick and lip liner duo, seven lip glosses, four metals as well as the recent Kyshadow eye make-up palette - unveiled three shades in her debut lipstick launch has revealed she never intended to release the "two nudes" Candy K and Dolce K to Kylie Cosmetics at the same time.
Speaking previously about her plans for the beauty brand, she said: "I wasn't going to do two nudes during my original launch, which included Dolce. But I just loved Candy so much, I didn't care!"
Although the brunette beauty has always intended to make the matte shade a "pink-nude", although she had to experiment with the colour a little.
She explained: "I was looking for a good pink-nude."

Soon after the release of Windows Phone 8 in October, consumers have started questioning regarding the Windows Phone 7.8 OS. However, at that time, there was not much information of the release date and software features of the same. But, Microsoft assured that more information will be revealed in the coming weeks.
According to a Chinese blog winp.cn, a leaked slide claimed to be a part of the Nokia presentation kit reveals a few more potential features of Windows Phone 7.8.
The slide talks about the new Start screen coming in the update along with the three Live Tile sizes to help personalize the phone. Twenty themes, matching the number found in Windows Phone 8, are aboard. Internet Explorer has security updates and MP3 files can be edited to produce a ringtone.
Other features coming to Windows Phone 7.8 include the ability to use Bing wallpapers to customize the lock screen. As we get closer to the actual Windows Phone 7.8 update, you can expect more features to be announced by the Redmond based firm.
Lately in October, some features of WP7.8 OS were leaked on the company's Facebook page. These features include uninterrupted access to relevant content and services from Microsoft such as Xbox Music Store Library which the users can enjoy through Zune and Xbox Smart Glass and club functionality for sharing the calendar.
Let us hope that the Windows Phone users get to see the 7.8 update soon as Windows Phone 8 is already making its way to the market.

You won't find plastic skulls and cheesy skeletons in Steve Powers' Halloween display.
He's made practically everything by hand for the giant Halloween show that unfolds on the front yard of his Ahwatukee home every weekend through the end of October.
And he almost gave it all up.
Since moving to Ahwatukee 11 years ago, the commercial airline pilot had grown his Halloween display from a few scattered tombstones into an elaborate musical horror show he titled "The Nightmare Before Christmas" in tribute to the Disney film of the same name.
Actually, a trip to Disneyland inspired Powers to develop the show.
After seeing the characters that populate the Haunted Mansion ride, Powers, who had no carpentry experience, set about building columns and characters and using cables and choreography to develop a seven-minute show that has drawn thousands to his neighborhood.
"I liked the movie and display because it was kid-friendly and did not include all of the blood and gore that Halloween has turned into," Powers said.
Powers initially was ready to give it all up after last year because "it was so much work."
"It would take me a couple months to put together," he said. "I had to create every single thing."
When he first got the idea for the show, Powers said, "I thought this would be kind of cool to do something like this for Halloween.
"I went around to a lot of stores only to find out there's nothing you can get there or on the internet," he added. "I spent months building all the characters and the columns."
Powers couldn't say farewell to all that work, so instead he has added translucent screens and a digital loop to make more use of video in the display.
"This year, it's been a little easier on me," he said. "I have the same graveyard with all the 'Nightmare Before Christmas' elements, but I'm using a lot of projectors."
Witches and ghosts in the graveyard sing, encouraging spectators to join in as they go through popular songs from movies like "Ghostbusters," "The Addams Family" and, of course, "The Nightmare Before Christmas."
"It will be a Halloween family sing-along of sorts," Powers said, proud of the fact that he is keeping his display family-friendly.
Powers is happy he didn't give up.
"The last few years, I keep telling people that this will be it, it will be the last year I do it because I am just really burned out," Powers said last year. "But when I see all of the hundreds of people who come to see this and how the little kids' faces just light up, I suddenly think I will go for another year."
When his daughter was born 16 years ago, Powers said he had a little display to amuse her in the backyard of his home, then in Chandler.
He said his daughter in the last few years seemed to take the display for granted and didn't pay it much heed.
But that changed when he initially announced he wasn't doing the show anymore.
"You know how teenagers are," he said. "The second I told her I wasn't doing anything, she said, 'Dad, you can't stop.'"
Powers said that he is frequently asked what he does for Christmas.
"I'd just put up some lights because I was so worn out by Halloween," he said.
But now that he has discovered how digital equipment can make his life easier, Powers might change all that.
"This year, I am kind of thinking about Christmas video images," he said.
The 20-minute shows will run continually 7-9 p.m. Friday and Saturday in front of Powers' home at 2537 E. Amberwood Drive.

Name: Anna Davanzo
Course: Aerospace Engineering (Maintenance, Repair & Overhaul) FdEng
"I attended an open day at AeroAcademy whilst applying for university and I thought the course sounded like something I could see myself really enjoying. The AeroAcademy degree is heavily linked to industry, which is a great plus point for the course whilst having university accreditation. Marshall is a very well known and highly respected company within the aerospace industry, it is widely known that Marshall designed and delivered training programmes are of the highest quality.
Study at AeroAcademy provided essential hand skills delivered in the well equipped training workshop, a great understanding of a range of aerospace and engineering topics along with the confidence to speak to people in industry as well as making friends for life.
I am currently an aerospace design engineer working within a special missions project at Marshall Aerospace and Defence Group. The work I do is varied and interesting and allows me to continue to develop my skills.
The course gave me a great basis for starting my career as an aerospace engineer. I felt confident in the three interviews that I attended – all of which offered me the job. During my engineering design role at Marshall Aerospace and Defence Group I use the skills I learnt every day.
My plans for the future are to continue to develop myself as an engineer and to become professionally registered as a chartered engineer through the Royal Aeronautical Society."

Thursday 2/19- Webb Bridge
Friday 2/20- Crabapple
Challenge of the Week
Do 1 Creation Project This Week. It does not have to be something big, and it does not even have to involve technology. As an example, history classes could have students draw a historical figure and then detail the 5 senses of that person.
This Weeks Success Story
Sometimes success will come if you take the risk and try. I know of several teachers at a certain Sandy Springs Middle School who tried there first digital creation projects in the last two weeks. While there were bumps in the road, they went headfirst into the projects and came out with students being able to really show them what they have learned.
Tech Tip of the Week : Find Resources
The Goal of the Tech Tip of the Week is to get you interested in a topic. Please contact me if you would like to implement.
If your come to a place where you don't know what to do, turn to Graphite. Graphite is Common Sense Media's version of a tool review site. It has detailed reviews of almost every tool you would want in education, along with crowd sourced teacher reviews. You can also search by Grade Level, and it has pre-built app flows for those who don't know where to start!
My Mission
My entire mission at your school is to take your technology use to transformative. We want students to be able to create, and to have an education that is tailored to their needs. Are you going to be able to do this right away? No, I am here to help hold your hand through those baby steps in order to let you do that. We can handle my help to you in one of three ways.
1. I can come in and do model lessons where we then progress to letting you do some of the same activities
2. I can take projects or assignments you are trying to do, and I can redesign them to up the choice factor and add the tech
3. I can kick you some ideas, and then I can follow up.

text: In the spirit of the current filler arc, I'd like to pose a question: how do One Piece fillers compare to fillers from other anime? In my opinion, they are way better both in quality and quantity. I'm not saying they're exactly good, but they are better than fillers from Naruto and Bleach. The average length of Bleach fillers is around 25 episodes and they tend to happen in the middle of arcs and have created several inconsistencies. Naruto fillers aren't quite that bad but are still about the same length and once there was over a year of fillers. What do you guys think about fillers?

DB resident John Campbell proves you're never too old to become a world-class athlete. Elizabeth Kerr reports.
Do nut, under any circumstances, ask John Campbell to ride a bicycle. The part-time athlete and architectural consultant who's coming off a win at the ITU Aquathlon World Championships in Cozumel, Mexico is willing to risk offending cycling aficionados when explaining his preferred two-sport competitions.
"I don't do triathlons because I don't like bikes. I bought an expensive bike last year and I've used it three times. I'm not built for bikes. It's not much of an exercise. I know I'm going to insult a lot of cyclists but when I run I'm constantly under stress," John says with an absolutely straight face, adding a comment about post-cycling soreness. "My bum's just not built for it."
Bone dry in a way that only Scots can be, the UK native and six-year Hong Kong resident is also, arguably, the city's most low-profile, world-class athlete. John can name-drop with the best of them – he once trained with Montréal Olympics gold medalwinning, British swimmer David Wilkie and controversial South African runner Zola Budd – but he never makes it seem like he's showing off.
At 61, the ITU and World Masters Athletics Championships regular is quick to admit he has his limits too. "It's frustrating when I train on Tuesday evenings in Aberdeen with the younger ones, and they start sprinting. My brain says 'Yes, you can do it,' and my body says 'No, no, no you can't,'" he comments with a laugh. "For the aquathlon in Mexico, last September, I got the help of a friend and fellow competitor Scott Burton and we did both swimming and running training three times a week for five or six weeks. If I trained with others more regularly I know both my running and swimming could get a lot faster again."
The day job
An architect by traade, John landed in Hong Kong in 2010 after travelling back and forth from London six times a year since 1992. While with architecture and engineering giant TFP Farrells, he was technical director on the Peak Tower, Kowloon Station and the British Consulate. When the work in London failed to stimulate him, he relocated to the SAR full time. "I just enjoyed coming out here. It's a great place. China was beginning to buzz and there was lots of work I was involved with, so I wanted to be near it," he recalls.
John set up his own consultancy in 2012, and currently sits on six committees, including as chair of the Royal Institute of British Architects' Hong Kong chapter and the Society of Façade Engineering. '' "That keeps me quite busy," he notes as an understatement.
Perched on the verge of permanent residency, John recalls his first impressions of Hong Kong as crowded, polluted and noisy, and he found the peculiarities that make the city what it is confounding. "I couldn't quite work out the behaviour of the people. I never understood not holding a door open or sitting at opposite ends of a bus and shouting at each other," he remembers with a sardonic laugh.
On top of that, Discovery Bay was low on the list of places to settle. "DB was about the last place on earth I was ever going to move to. It's just not Hong Kong," John says. But as it turned out a "fantastic" property agent showed John two or three DB homes and one ticked all the boxes. The Campbells moved into Siena One in 2010 and the rest is history.
Going the distance
When he's not working, John is either running or swimming. No stranger to combined events, he started competing in biathlons in 1985 and signed up for his first aquathlon in 2010. "The aquathlon is running and swimming consecutively, while the biathlons, that I originally did, involved swimming then a break of several hours before the run or vice versa," John explains. Aquathlons combine a (roughly) 5-kilometre run and a 1-kilometre swim, and John now competes in the 60 to 64 age group.
"Those Ironmen and Ironwomen out there, who think that distance is all-important, should try these shorter, sharper events and see how tired you get working at a much harder rate but for a shorter period of time," John says.
At the 2011 ITU in Beijing, John had hoped to place in the top 10, and much to his surprise, he won in his age category. London in 2013 followed but the swimming course let him down. "Because the water was down to 17°C I just didn't run well. I was frozen, and couldn't feel my legs. It didn't help I couldn't get my wetsuit off," he admits. "So I did it again in 2016 because it was Mexico, and it was warm. I wasn't really fit enough but I decided to take it on." Wrong, as John placed first for Hong Kong in his category.
"The next ITU aquathlon is set for Rotterdam, in September, which means it's going to be absolutely freezing again, so I'll give it a miss," says John. In the meantime, he has races planned in Hong Kong over rougher ground, for which training will continue – possibly in his Speedo, a habit that's garnered John a bit of notoriety in DB. Though he's occasionally told to get dressed by wife Sharmin, he resists. "Given the right temperatures, there's no point in running with a pair of shorts on. And I don't want a suntan with the line across the thighs."
Professional retirement may be coming up – he and Sharmin have flirted with renting an Airstream and touring Europe – but how soon this transpires is anyone's guess. Something that might tempt him to do so is photography – he recently had a landscape photograph published in Digital Camera. "I'd like to do more commissions for travel or sports photography but need to get invitations to training sessions or competition events," says John (https://500px.com/jcampbell_edin).
As for the aquathlons, John can't see himself stopping any time soon. "It will be an injury or something that stops me from doing it," he reckons, taking an aside for a story about a 95-year-old he saw shuffling around in Singapore at a race. If it's not embarrassing, John can see himself in the 80-plus category. "I enjoy competition. Though at the end of each one I think, 'Never again,' because it's just so hard," he says. "I ask myself why I'm doing it." Because he can.

Special fund created to save arts, music
Published: Tuesday, July 1, 2008 at 6:01 a.m.
Last Modified: Tuesday, July 1, 2008 at 12:44 a.m.
A special fund, the Friends of Alachua County Public Schools Elementary Arts Programs, was established at the Gainesville Community Foundation.
Earlier this summer, the School Board and Superintendent Dan Boyd announced that elementary music and art classes would be cut in half to save money after the state announced another cut in funding for schools. Alachua County's solution to the most recent cutback was to reduce art and music classes from a whole year to a half year.
When parents and teachers protested the program being cut in half, Boyd said it would take $850,000 to return the elementary arts program to full year status. He said he was willing to give volunteers a chance to raise the money for the upcoming school year, but they would have to meet the $850,000 goal by July 10.
"We are just a few weeks away from preplanning and we need time to assign teachers and fill vacancies," said district spokeswoman Jackie Johnson.
Retired music teacher Cheryl Poe said it would be possible to raise the money if 6,800 people each donated $125.
"This is a stopgap, a rescue sort of thing, to give the schools time to figure something else out," Poe said. "If we do have to go to half-year art and music, that means each child may only get 15 to 18 classes in music and art a year."
Another retired teacher working on the effort, former Glen Springs art teacher Sue Johnson, said the fundraiser is "a way to buy time, time to re-educate our legislators."
Johnson was one of the original nine art teachers hired when the district developed its elementary school art program in the 1980s. Johnson said she and other organizers "realize that this is a miracle goal, that it has been called a noble effort. But we are all on the same side of the fence on this one - the district, the teachers, the parents, the children. That's what makes this possible, that we are all working together.
Sandra Clifton, a third-grade teacher at Glen Springs, said her hope is also that parents use this effort as a teachable moment with their children.
"I hope parents are talking to their children about the possibility of what August will bring and I hope the children know and understand that people care about them and their schools," Clifton said.
Organizers have a contingency plan if they start raising the money but do not reach the $850,000 goal. The money would be held by the foundation and would accrue interest until the art programs are reinstated by other means. Then the money would be turned over to the district to help the programs return to their full potential, organizers said.
The Gainesville Community Foundation was established in 1998. Each of the foundation's nearly two dozen funds was established for specific reasons, such as the Shands at AGH Thomas H. Maren Nursing Scholarship Fund, the Emmer Recreation Fund and the Charles R. Perry Construction Institute at Santa Fe Community College.
The foundation manages the funds professionally so that they grow over time and will be self-sustaining.
Tax-deductible donations to the Friends of Alachua County Public Schools Elementary Arts Programs can be made by sending a check made out to Gainesville Community Foundation and designated for the Elementary Arts Programs. Mail donations to Gainesville Community Foundation, 5214-A SW 91st Drive, Gainesville, FL 32608.

Vodafone's secret wires for govt spying
Vodafone says 34 interception warrants were issued on its services in New Zealand last year.
The company has admitted the existence of secret wires around the world that allow government agencies to listen to all conversations on its networks.
It will publish its first Law Enforcement Disclosure Report tomorrow in an attempt to push back on governments using its broadband and phone lines to spy on citizens, British newspaper The Guardian said.
The Guardian today produced a chart that showed in 2013 there were 34 warrants for interception of its phones in New Zealand.
Ttomorrow's report from Vodafone is likely to include greater detail on New Zealand interceptions.
The Guardian report does not say which New Zealand government agencies were involved in the cases.
When asked if it would provide a similar disclosure of interceptions, Telecom New Zealand said it "assists with lawful requests for information from relevant authorities."
This is in compliance with the law.
"The only information provided is information that relates specifically to the warrant," a spokesman said.
"Our policy is to refer you to the relevant agencies for the details of those requests, however we can confirm we have received 40 requests over the last year."
Figures from the Government Communications Security Bureau show it had a total of 11 interception warrants in force for the year ended June 30, 2013. There were also 26 access authorisations in force, and 11 were issued in that same period.
Security Intelligence Service figures showed it had 34 domestic intelligence warrants in force. Of those, 22 were issued during the year, while 12 issued the previous year were still in force.
A spokeswoman from the New Zealand Intelligence Community said today that the Government did not comment on security and intelligence matters.
Vodafone told the Guardian secret wires had been connected directly to its networks around the world and those of other telecommunications groups, allowing agencies to listen to or record live conversations and, in certain cases, track the whereabouts of a customer.
Privacy campaigners said the revelations were a "nightmare scenario" that confirmed their worst fears on the extent of snooping, according to The Guardian.
In six of the countries in which Vodafone operates, the law either obliges telecommunications operators to install direct access pipes, or allows governments to do so.
The company has not named the six countries because certain regimes could retaliate by imprisoning its staff.
The Guardian said the table on Vodafone interceptions covers 2013.
A single warrant can target hundreds of individuals and devices, but several warrants can bed used to target just one person.
"Governments count warrants in different ways and New Zealand, for example, excludes those concerning national security," the Guardian said..
Vodafone has called for all direct-access pipes to be disconnected, and for the laws that make them legal to be amended.
It said governments should "discourage agencies and authorities from seeking direct access to an operator's communications infrastructure without a lawful mandate".
Under New Zealand law, telecommunications companies must provide "full interception capability".

LORD HENRY is the class act in this contest and he is preferred to Herons Well and Silver Adonis. Phillip Hobbs has his string in good order and while there are fitness issues with regard to Lord Henry - he acts on fast ground and has taken on much stiffer assignments in the past. Herons Well has done nothing wrong in recent months and is still on the upgrade. Tony McCoy replaces an inexperienced conditional. Silver Adonis won the big hunter chase at Aintree and now attempts to beat the rules performers off a mark of 128. Psychomodo is likely to assume front running duties. Stan has proved disappointing of late and seems best watched rather than punted. Coq Hardi has ability though might need to come down the weights before he is seen in the winners enclosure again. Lord Henry seems the most reliable bet in a race where few can be written off.

"Still unclean"
About: The Great Western Hospital The Great Western Hospital Swindon SN3 6BB
Posted by Anonymous
My mother was admitted to Linnet ward in the early hours of Boxing Day. When visiting her later that day I was disgusted to see the amount of dirt on the floor around and under her bed. During the time I was there another patient was moved out in their bed and a cleaner came in to sweep the floor it must have taken her all of 10 seconds and really was a complete waste of time as no effort or care was taken when carrying out the task. No wonder the place is so dirty. This was of course after the damning inspection so it appears not much has been learnt. Also when I telephoned the next day to check if my other was being discharged, she had been moved during the night, the nurse that answered the phone had such a poor communication skills that she could not, even after repeating the request several times, understand me when I asked her to let my mum know that I had phoned. A standard request , I would have thought. No wonder mistakes are made.
Response from The Great Western Hospital 3 years ago
Thank you for your comments. I am sorry that the cleanliness and communication weren't up to standard. We are trying very hard to improve on both of these issues and I will be talking to the ward staff about your NHS Choices post.

Notes For:
Bible Worldviews (12) (ELCA)
Christian EthicsEdit
- Moral Absolutes – the belief that an absolute ethical standards exists for all individuals regardless of era or culture.
Christian morality is founded on the conviction that an absolute moral order exists outside of, and yet inseribed into our very being.
For the Christian, Go is the ultimate source of morality, not society!!
The moral light is what the Apostle John refers to having been lit in the hearts of all men and women – "The True Life that gives light to every man."(John 1:9)
It is what the Apostle Paul calls "the work of the law written in their hearts, their conscience"(Romans 2:15)
Christians get their moral code from the Bible, but most importantly from the person of Jesus Christ The call to follow Jesus is the simplest summation of Christian ethics, and at the same time the most difficult thing for us to do.
The Problem with SinEdit
"When a person makes up his own ethical code, he always makes up an ethical system which he thinks he has kept. In the law of God, we find a law which smashes our self-righteousness, eliminates all trust in our own goodness, and convinces us that we are sinners. The law of God leaves us with our hands over our mouths and our faces in the dust. We are humbled before God and convinced that we are guilty transgressors of His law."
–Dr. James Kennedy
- "Love must be sincerer. Hate what is evil, cling to what is good." (Romans 12:9)
- "Wages of sin is death" (Romans 6:23)
- "Flee sexual immorality" (I Corinthians 6:18)
- "Flee from idolatry" (I Corinthians 10:14)
- "Flee youthful passions and pursue righteousness" (II Timothy 2:22)
Islamic EthicsEdit
"There is no division of ethics and law in Islam."Muhammad is the exemplar for all Muslims
–S. Parvez Manzoor
Five Pillars of SubmissionEdit
Only through Jihad can one be guaranteed paradise.
Prohibition of IslamEdit
- Drinking Wine (Alcoholic Beverages)
- Eating Pork
- May not eat meat that has not been property slaughtered.
- Gambling
- Sexual Immorality
(Very Similar to Levitical Law)
Day of JudgmentEdit
Muslims believe that their deeds will be set on a celestial scale to weight all their deeds.
Then those whose balance (of good deeds) is heavy,- they will attain salvation: But those whose balance is light, will be those who have lost their souls, in Hell will they abide.Fear of an eternity in hell is the strongest motivation of all.
–Sura 23: 102-103
Secular Humanistic EthicsEdit
"The traditional super naturalistic moral commandments are especially repressive for our human needs. They are immoral insofar as they foster illusions about human destiny [heaven] and suppress vital inclinations." – Paul Kurtz (Humanist Manifesto II)
- Moral Relativism – the belief that morals are relative to the individual and situation
Without a god who sets forth an absolute moral code, humanist must believe either the code is subjective or should be applied differently to changing situations.
Cosmic Humanist EthicsEdit
- Karma – the total effect of a person's actions and conduct during each phase of existence, determining the person's destiny.
- Tolerance is the Key – Cosmic Humanist must tolerate all other views of morality because ethics is relative to the truth within each of us.
"Christ is the same as Lucifer... Lucifer prepares man for the experience of Christ-hood... Lucifer works within each of us to bring us to the wholeness as we move into the New Age."
– David Springler
Marxist EthicsEdit
- Proletariat Morality – the ethical belief that whatever advances the proletariat and the caus of communism is morally good and whatever hinders the proletariat or Communism morally evil.
- Utilitarianism – an ethical framework that positive that wall action should be directed towards achieved the greatest utility for the greatest number of people.
The next social advance in history will be the move from capitalism to socialism which will inevitably result in society's moral ideas.
Post Modern EthicsEdit
- Cultural Relativism – the belief that truth and morals are relative to one's culture.
Since there is no "grand narrative", each community comes up with its own "little narrative"
"No adult can know what is best for another adult; and, by the same token, no group or society can know what is best for another group or society."
– Adam Phillips

I love the 'how to' on here to make cigarellos! Makes it SO easy! However, is there a cheaper way to make a TON of them? Acetate paper here at the cake store is $1/sheet... so basically $1/12 cigarellos... Can you reuse the acetate paper? Or is there a cheaper way to purchase the acetate paper? TIA!!!
If you want to just make 12 at a time you can reuse the acetate, it'll just take longer.
I don't use acetate when making cigarellos... I have a nice big slab of marble I do them on. No need to keep buying anything (other than choc) then, just keep slapping the chocolate on the slab. I'm curious about making them with acetate... will have to go have a look for that how to.

Hey there, time traveller!
This article was published 28/10/2013 (1394 days ago), so information in it may no longer be current.
MANITOBA will be extraordinarily well represented in the playoff round today at the richest annual women's curling bonspiel in the province -- the $60,000 Manitoba Liquor and Lotteries Women's Curling Classic at Fort Rouge Curling Club.
Winnipeg's Jennifer Jones, Janet Harvey, Barb Spencer and Jill Thurston are among the final eight teams standing from an original field of 32. Joining them in this morning's quarter-finals will be Russia's Anna Sidorova, Switzerland's Michelle Jaggi and Silvana Tirinzoni and Calgary's Crystal Webster.
Even the Webster team has a Winnipeg connection, with longtime Winnipeg curler Cathy Overton-Clapham at third.
Jones and Sidorova qualified from the A-side on Saturday, while Harvey and Jaggi qualified from the B-side Sunday afternoon. The remaining four qualifiers all came from the C-side Sunday evening.
Thurston had the toughest trip to the playoffs, losing her first two games but then winning four straight on the C-side. Spencer needed three wins in a row on the C-side to qualify, including a 5-4 victory Sunday night over an upstart Michelle Montford rink who defeated top-ranked Chelsea Carey, 2009 world champion Bingyu Wang and 2011 Canadian champion Amber Holland in succession over the weekend only to lose back-to-back qualifying games on Sunday.
Carey got wins on Sunday over Winnipeg's Kim Link and reigning world champion Eve Muirhead of Scotland to stay alive, but the Olympic trials-bound foursome was eliminated in a qualifying game by Tirinzoni.
Draw times at Fort Rouge today will see the quarter-finals go at 10 a.m., the semifinals at 1:30 p.m. and the final at 5 p.m. First place is worth $15,000, second place is $10,000, third and fourth place is $6,000 apiece and the four quarterfinal losers all earn $3,700.
Elsewhere in curling on Sunday, Winnipeg's Mike McEwen continued his dominance of the men's tour with an 8-0 thrashing of Switzerland's Sven Michel in the final of the $70,000 Cactus Pheasant Classic in Brooks, Alta.
It was the second win in as many weeks for McEwen, who also won the Canad Inns Prairie Curling Classic in Portage La Prairie a week ago.
McEwen also finished second in his first event of the year, the StuSells Toronto Tankard.
McEwen picked up $22,000 with Sunday's win. Brandon's Rob Fowler was the only other Manitoba team to qualify for the playoffs in Brooks. Fowler lost a quarter-final game to McEwen Saturday evening.

In a train, we are shown Vincent's dream in which he is confused about the emotions he feels and what he sees in his dream. He wakes up on the floor of the train car, and answers his ringing phone. It is Dorothy who called, and she asks "Vincent, where are you now?".
Re-L tries to contact Vincent via phone but can't get a hold of him. Iggy discovers that the Intelligence Bureau's database has been accessed 74 times, all by unknown accounts.
Vincent arrives to where he meets Dorothy, and as he looks for her, he trips over her head as he finds her body broken and torn. before he has time to assess the situation, an armed AutoReiv attacks Vincent. With his weapon empty, he flees, but soon Vincent raids a cupboard and reloads his gun before jumping out a window as the AutoReiv discovers him.
Raul gets in trouble and Kristeva is threatened by the Regent for not having found the proxy.
Vincent finds Pino whilst he is looking for the plug vent. He is able to recognize her from several different occasions.
Re-L tries to get in contact with Vincent again, but does not succeed.
Vincent and Pino try to sneak to the plug vent as the armed AutoReivs are looking for both them. Pino trips and falls over, making a sound that catches the attention of an AutoReiv, who comes to check the area. Vincent quickly pushes Pino out of the way and they remain undetected.
Pino holds out Vincent's phone and answers when Re-L attempts again, and then Vincent then speaks to Re-L. He drops his phone and continues on his way when Re-L works out that he is trying to leave Romdo through the plug vent. Re-L rushes to find Vincent but is stopped by the Security Bureau. She lies to the officer about where she's going, then continues to drive to the plug vent, hoping to get there before Vincent.
The Regent and the statue AutoReivs discuss Re-L and her personality, actions and what she might be thinking.
At the plug vent, Re-L finds Vincent and questions him about the proxy monster that attacked her in the bathroom, holding up a necklace that appears to be Vincent's, and asks why the Security Bureau is chasing him. He responds that he doesn't know and is shocked somewhat that Re-L saw the monster too. Armed AutoReivs, under the instruction of Raul and Kristeva, appear suddenly and surround the two, trying to get Vincent to come with them.
Scared and angry, Vincent breaks away from Re-L, before the two start to get pulled outside from the gushing air, due to the open plug vent. Iggy runs in front of Re-L to protect her, so she won't get sucked out and gives her a breathing mask so the outside air doesn't affect her. Pino joins up with Vincent, and Kristeva closes the plug vent, much to Raul's disgust. She explains that she can't keep it open any longer otherwise it will expose Romdo to potential disease. Re-L takes another look towards Vincent as he reflects upon his time in Romdo and she gets a glimpse of the true Vincent, where he isn't someone whom Romdo wants him to be.

1926-S $20 MS65 PCGS....Click the image to load the highest resolution version.
1926-S Saint-Gaudens Double Eagle, MS65
1926-S $20 MS65 PCGS. More than 2 million Saint-Gaudens
double eagles were minted at the San Francisco Mint in 1926. Like
most issues from this era, the mintage figures mean nothing in
terms of the coin's availability today. Most of the generous
mintage was held in bank vaults and later melted, after the Gold
Recall of 1933. The 1926-S was luckier than many issues of the
decade, because a fairly large number of the coins were used to pay
for foreign commitments. The coins used in foreign trade were often
preserved in overseas holdings, beyond the reach of the Gold
Recall, and later returned to augment the meager supply of coins
left in this country. While the 1926-S is not a common coin by any
means, it is still the most available mintmarked Saint-Gaudens
double eagle of the mid-1920s. Most of the repatriated specimens
are in lower Mint State grades, however, and the issue is extremely

Blowouts can get boring.
Take the Cleveland Cavaliers for example.
LeBron James and the Cavs found themselves once again on the winning end of a blowout, destroying the New York Knicks 126-94 on Wednesday night. Sure, they could've sat there and just waited patiently for the game to end… but no. What fun would that be?
So to pass the final minute, James, Kyrie Irving and others attempted the water bottle flip challenge… while the game was still being played. Yes, they were throwing the water bottle on the court, while the game was still in progress.
Judging by the clip below, the bottle flip proved to be much more challenging than either of them could have anticipated.
I kind of wish the camera never cut away so we could've seen if they succeeded.

The touching, tender and timely story, LOVE IS STRANGE, got rated R. We meet a gay male couple in New York City forced to find a new place to live when one loses his job in a city stricken with wildly escalating rents and housing prices. This happens after Ben and George gather some family and friends together for their wedding. Alfred Molina (George) and John Lithgow (Ben) are very much in love. And they've been together for 39 years.
We're in a Recession. George and Ben are an older couple. Now they need a place to live while George hunts for a new job and while they sell their apartment for income. They must separate and each live with different relatives or friends until they can get their own place again. Some situations provide nice light comedy. Others break your heart. You care about George and Ben so much due to the extraordinary acting from Lithgow and Molina. They truly seem like a couple that's been together happily for nearly 40 years. These two loving individuals have grown into one unit over the years and to see them endure the separation, to see them work around it and remain a couple shows you that the title is accurate -- love is strange. And powerful.
George lives with two young cops -- another gay male couple. Ben lives with his nephew, a straight married family man. His novelist wife, played by Marisa Tomei, gave a gushy and long toast (in which she reminds all that she's a novelist) at George and Ben's wedding reception. She's not exactly gushy about having Ben live with them. She's not mean. She just likes the same predictable home life -- a daily life that's like a beige piece of linen. Something that doesn't wrinkle. Ben is sweetly chatty and has a healthy appetite. Ben's nephew has no problem with this. The novelist wife sees Ben as a wrinkle, an inconvenience. Yet she is younger. She and her husband have their jobs and their own place. As a novelist, she's blind to seeing the experience as inspiration, a window into a human condition that could illuminate her future writing.
If, last month, Love Is Strange had brought John Lithgow his third Oscar nomination for Best Supporting Actor, I'd have cheered. I would not been alone. If it had brought Alfred Molina his first Oscar nomination, I'd have shouted "It's about time!" He's never been an Oscar nominee. That's hard to believe when you've seen his work as the under-appreciated partner to a sexually and artistically popular young British playwright in Prick Up Your Ears (1987), as Diego opposite Salma Hayek in the Frida Kahlo biopic, Frida (2002) and as the father to Carey Mulligan's character in An Education (2009).
I saw this on the big screen last year when critics loved the movie and hated the rating it got. I loved the movie too. I saw it again last weekend on DVD. It touched me even more. I shed a few tears thinking of much I still miss my late partner. Love Is Strange director and writer, Ira Sachs, gave us a fine piece of work, free of stereotypes and full of heart. If you're a classic film fan, Love Is Strange has echoes of Leo McCarey's 1937 masterpiece, Make Way For Tomorrow. In that, an older couple is broke. Husband and wife lose their home. None of their five adult kids, who are comfortable, will take them in together. Mom and Dad must separate and live with a child while senior Dad attempts to re-enter the workforce. It's also on DVD.

barely spotting.
So I spotted two days now its almost stooped? So confused...
Maybe you're pregnant? Could be implantation spotting.
Could be implantation bleeding, totally. When in your cycle was it? It could also be wonky hormones and a short period. It happens especially if you're under stress.
Have you taken a test yet, or would it be too early?
I found out I'm not pregnant :(

Chapter 1 Beginnings
Niko wasn't a beast who just sat down and did nothing when it mattered. Niko was a beast with a world in front of him and 100% nothing standing in his way of pursuing his goals. You see, Niko is an otter with a dream, a dream which makes him wonder what's out there in the world. Ever since he was small, living on Green Isle under the care of Queen Tiria Wildlough, Niko dreamed of taking to the seas and heading east to Mossflower Country where he'd hope to see Redwall Abbey. Niko Wildlough, which the other clans gave him because he lived pretty much with Tiria, had her adventurous spirit and her wit and wasn't too bad with a sling, dagger, or sword either.
But the one weapon he favored was a scythe he called Reaper. It was a scythe with a curved made out of sharpened seashell that he dyed blue, his favorite color and his actual eye color. The handle was a tall yew branch with a red-dyed hilt made of the leather that was once Tiria's first sling Whupit. Niko trained day and night with this scythe in the form of harvesting crops with it. Every stroke landed true to its mark, felling every stalk and leaving naught but the very produce he was harvesting.
One day a storm ravaged green isle and it's been said that Niko was trying to leave Green Isle, finally old enough and able to do so. This storm was like nothingg he had ever saw. As it whipped and threw his vessel around, he saw there was a vessel coming towards him. He had no time to react as it slmmed next to him and its crew swung across. Niko, with Reaper inn his hands, fought them valiantly and defeated all that stood against him. Suddenly he felt a crack against his head and he fell to his knees looking up at his attacker. It was wildcat who's daughter stood next to him rather sad, feeling sorry for him.
"What do we have here?" The wildcat snarled. "An otter on the seas on his own. This wouldve been an easy take over if it wasn't for his weapon that so easily overtook you fools!"
The wildcat picked up the scythe, testing it in his hands. It felt heavy but it made quick strokes in his hands. he handed it to his daughter, a fair, pure white Wildcat. "Now for your first lesson in being a warlord, Catyra." The wildcat snarled. "A great warlord shows no mercy! Kill him for your father and king, Lord Apollo."
Catyra knew she couldn't kill him for two reasons; one, he was her age and was innocent, and two, because her father started the whole ordeal and she should not have to kill anyone on those terms. Thinking quickly she walked up to Niko and picked him up. She looked into his blue eyes and saw noothing but innocence and something else she couldn't explain. No one, not even Niko himself could predict what Catyra did next. She grabbed Niko's paw and jumped into the ocean and was lost to the sea.
Apollo was shocked beyond belief but knew this was going to happen. He looked at his remaining guards and shrugged.
"Princess Catyra is a traitor." he said nonchalantly, though trying to keep his anger in check. "Judging by this boat's direction it was heading for Mossflower Country. We shall proceed there. If that's where they're headed, than that's where we'll go as well! She will be brought back and she will face justice for her betrayal!! Set a course for mossflower and burn this vessel before you do!"
The guardsmen and soldier set to work doing as Apollo ordered them to as he looked in the direction of Mossflower.
"So it seems she's going there is it?" He said aloud. "Mother was wrong to make you queen when you got older. With you dead for treachery, I'll be the true ruler of the west seas!"
His laughter rang throughout the seas. Even those sleeping in Redwall abbey in the southern part of Mossflower Country, were woken up by this laugh.

Some Project Connect activities in Maine include:
- Regional trainings to help health care providers develop skills for assessing whether their clients are experiencing reproductive coercion.
- A statewide training for school-based health center staff on the issue of reproductive coercion.
- E-learning opportunities for health care providers.
- Training in reproductive health issues for domestic violence and sexual assault advocates.
- Strengthening the relationships between health centers and organizations working in the field of domestic violence and sexual assault, in order to provide better support and safety planning for women and teens experiencing sexual coercion.
- A pilot program with several school-based health centers, to increase their ability to assess for and support teens experiencing intimate partner violence, sexual assault and/or reproductive coercion and to develop referral strategies, policies and procedures relative to these issues.
- One domestic violence program will implement a new reproductive health assessment and coercion assessment with a local family planning program and develop a referral procedure. This will serve as a model for other programs throughout the state.

Anaheim Police Release Description of Possible Fifth Victim of Alleged Serial Killers
At a press conference Monday where Orange County law enforcement officials provided some details on their case against alleged serial killers Franc Cano and Steven Dean Gordon, who are accused of murdering four women, Anaheim Police Chief Raul Quezada said investigators are "confident" there is at least a fifth victim.
His department released a description that person Tuesday afternoon in hopes the public can help find her.
Steven Dean Gordon and Franc Cano Have Arraignment Delayed for Alleged Serial Killings
Lt. Bob Dunn, an Anaheim Police spokesman, released a statement that reads, in part:
As Detectives continue the investigation, we are asking for the public's help in identifying a fifth victim. The victim is believed to be an African American female, in her early 20's, short / petite stature, black hair, and with numerous tattoos about her body. She may have ties to the city of Compton, California.
It is believed this victim was last seen between February 14 and February 16, 2014, near Katella Avenue and Orangewood Avenue or Beach Boulevard north of Katella Avenue. She likely checked into a local motel and did not check out, leaving behind her belongings. Detectives have canvassed both areas and distributed flyers detailing the aforementioned information. A copy of that flyer is attached.
Anyone with information is asked to contact Orange County Crime Stoppers at 855-TIP-OCCS, or www.occrimestoppers.org or text OCCS and your tip to CRIMES (274637). You may remain anonymous.

We argue that the only meaningful geometrical measure of the energy-momentum of states of matter described by a free quantum field theory in a general curved space-time is that provided by a normal ordered energy-momentum operator. We contrast the finite expectation values of this operator with the conventional renormalized expectation values and further argue that the use of renormalization theory is inappropriate in this context.

By IHSAN A. HiJAZI, Special to the New York Times
Published: April 30, 1987
BEIRUT, Lebanon, April 29— Western diplomats believe that the Soviet Union will provide Syria with more advanced weapons and reschedule the Syrian debt under an agreement last week between President Hafez al-Assad and Mikhail S. Gorbachev.
The diplomats believe that the Soviet pledge was given to encourage Syria to take part in a proposed conference on the Arab-Israeli conflict.
Mr. Assad returned home Saturday after a three-day visit to Moscow, his first in two years. The two countries signed a treaty of friendship and cooperation seven years ago.
A communique after the Moscow talks said the Soviet Union would upgrade Syria's military capacity.
The Western diplomats said they believed the Soviet Union would provide jet fighters, surface-to-surface and surface-to-air missiles and tanks as well as more military technicians. It is estimated that there are now 2,500 Soviet military personnel in Syria.
The debt of about $15 billion that is believed to have been rescheduled accumulated from military purchases and from Soviet financing of economic development projects in Syria. Last month the Russians agreed to reschedule Egypt's debt.
A major Syrian objective has been to achieve military parity with Israel, which Mr. Assad believes is the only way to enable the Arabs to negotiate from a position of strength.
Convening a peace conference under United Nations sponsorship is now a central goal of Soviet policy in the Middle East. Moscow says the meeting should be attended by the five permanent members of the Security Council, by Arab countries directly involved in the conflict, by Israel and by the Palestine Liberation Organization.
The Paleinine National Council, which the P.L.O. calls its parliament in exile, decided at a session in Algiers last weekend that the Palestinians must take part in the conference on an equal footing with other participants.
The Syrian-Soviet communique said a first step in paving the way for the peace conference is to form a preparatory committee in which the permanent members of the Security Council would take part.
