Several incidents of Islamic State (IS) operatives allegedly booby-trapping Islamic religious books, including the Quran and Quranic interpretations (tafasir), to target Iraqi Security Forces (ISF), Popular Mobilization Units (PMU), militias and civilians have been recently observed. Documented by the ISF and the governor of one of Iraq's predominately Sunni provinces, visual evidence suggests IS has few qualms with utilizing Islamic religious books to conceal IEDs or as bait for a victim-operated IED (VOIED). While various books are used by terrorist organizations and anarchists around the world to conceal IEDs and IED components, the use of religious books as a booby-trapping and 'come-on' TTP specifically seeks to exploit the religious sentiments, piety, and reverence of the intended target.

When employers investigate discrimination claims, they don't have to act like courts of criminal law, deciding whether an employee is telling the truth "beyond a reasonable doubt."
Employers must, of course, conduct an internal investigation—one that's fair and carried out in good faith. By definition, that means HR or whoever investigates must decide who is telling the truth and which witnesses or accounts are most believable.
The fact is, employers get to decide who they think is most credible—and for better or worse, they're allowed to be wrong.
So don't feel paralyzed if a discrimination investigation boils down to one employee's word against another's. Use your best judgment to decide who is telling the truth and go with that judgment. Courts won't second-guess the decision unless the complaining employee can prove you sided with someone you knew was lying and used it as an excuse to discriminate.
Recent case: Johnny Johnson, who is over age 60, worked as a pilot. He flew over oil and gas pipelines with a spotter, looking for trouble. He then reported back to the company.
One of his spotters complained to management that Johnson was anti-Hispanic and had once told him "the government should let the civil air patrol guard the border and give them all the rifles so they could shoot the Mexicans." The company fired Johnson based partly on the spotter's complaint.
Johnson sued, alleging he hadn't made such a statement.
The court tossed out his case. It reasoned that, as long as the employer in good faith believed the spotter, it was irrelevant whether he had in fact been telling the truth about Johnson's alleged comment. The employer doesn't have to be right, just honest. (Johnson v. Barr Air Patrol, No. 3:07-CV-1444, ND TX, 2009)

Papaya Sunshine: Marie Nichols
October 2014
We're a big fan of Instagram Queen Papaya Sunshine (aka Marie Nichols) and her delicious health food creations, so when she posted an Aduna Moringa Porridge & Smoothie Bowl we just had to share it with our fellow Feel Good Tribers! Like true Tribers on a mission, we managed to squeeze ourselves into her busy schedule to ask the passionate, loving and health driven foodie a few questions.
My love for healthy food began... at a young age. I remember being one of the only kids in my school taking fruit and nuts in my packed lunch! I'm not really sure where it came from but I always knew I wanted to eat healthy and exercise to look after my body and feel good. I've never taken my body forgranted and I believe it is a gift and I want to look after it as best I can.
My idea of food heaven is... a room filled with fresh fruit! It's my most favourite food on earth and just thinking about it makes me happy! The colours and flavours are so beautiful and I love to use these to create delicious food ideas.
My feel good tips... to make you feel amazing are:
1. Eat foods as close to their natural state as possible. Foods of the earth that have not been messed with.
2. Keep active! But always in a way that's enjoyable. I have been working out since I was a young teenager and it always makes me feel alive and energised!
3. Laugh!! I love to laugh out loud and feel happy so always make time for the things in life that make you happy. Family, friends, animals, nature and food are amongst some of the things that make me happy.
Baobab or Moringa?
For me it's hands down baobab but only because I'm a girl who loves her fruit smoothies. Baobab is something I use everyday and I love how it makes me feel. The taste is lovely to.
Check out Marie's Instagram page papaya_sunshine to get your daily fix of her beautiful tasty recipes!

One of the most common sights in today's modern world are the fast food restaurant. They're just about everywhere, and practically everybody's eaten fast food in some form or another. It's not even that fast food is a new thing – historical records show that there were forms of fast food in Ancient Rome, and likely also in earlier cultures.
While there are some concerns about how healthy fast food is, it fits exactly in today's hectic lifestyle. People don't really have the time to prepare fresh food on their own, and sometimes don't even have the time to have a long meal. Rush in, pick your food, pay for your food, rush out. Back to work, or school, or ministry.
Often we don't even think about whether we order something healthy, sometimes we don't even eat it for the flavor. Sometimes we just have to eat, and fast, so that we can get on with our day. Many nutritionists say this causes a wide range of health problems today, with quite a bit of evidence to back up their claims. But this is a large, complex issue in itself, and its not what I want to talk about here today.
What I did want to talk about is how relationships in today's society is a lot like going to a fast food restaurant. We go in, we pick our relationships, and often we don't take the time to really think about how these relationships can affect us. And just like the fast food we eat, this can prove to have disastrous results.
Relationships Without Boundaries
What is a boundary? The fact that I have to ask that question and answer it, is in itself a scary thought. Coming from a dictionary definition, a boundary is a line that marks the limits of an area. Or it can mean the limit of a subject or sphere of activity.
A relationship boundary is the set of limits, rules or guidelines that a person has that lets them decide what are acceptable, reasonable, safe and permissible ways for other people to behave around them. They're built up from a variety of sources, but basically its the invisible line that tells you whether someone has done you wrong, or if they're doing right.
Someone with healthy personal boundaries knows when someone in their life is harmful to them or not. They know when to say no to people, just as they know when to say yes. They build healthy relationships with others, and encourage others to have healthy relationships around them as well.
However, if we don't take the time to realize these personal boundaries, to examine ourselves and our relationships with other people, we could be leading ourselves to endless bad relationships. We could end up emotionally drained and exhausted, frustrated with our friends, family, co-workers, peers… the list is endless.
Even worse, a person who does not have a healthy relationship boundary could be leading others to negative relationships as well. Have you ever thought about whether you could be the source of frustration and emotional exhaustion?
Take the time to think about this; I would in fact suggest that you pray to God about it. Spend time in prayer asking the Lord about what is healthy, what is not, and what you can do to correct it. Dive into the Bible to help build your relationship boundaries. You can also observe people who you think has good relationships. What are they doing right? What are they doing wrong?
One of the concerns Christians have with relationships is having non-Christian friends. One verse to look at is 2 Cor 6:14. "Do not be yoked together with unbelievers. For what do righteousness and wickedness have in common? Or what fellowship can light have with darkness?" Often, Christians use this to justify not having any friends who aren't Christian, but at the same time, how can we minister to people if we don't have relationships with them? There has to be something more than just "stay away from unbelievers."
Without going too deeply into it, I believe that the key here is the phrase "do not be yoked." A yoke is basically a wooden crosspiece used to tie two animals together so that they can pull something together. This suggests going in the same direction, being led the same place. So if a relationship is leading you to a place that is wrong for you, wrong for your beliefs as a Christian, then that relationship has you yoked to the wrong person.
Relationships of any kind can be tricky, and you will want God's wisdom when dealing with a person you feel is leading you in the wrong direction. But bad relationships have to be dealt with, whether by correcting the relationship or ending it, depending on the situation. Else bad consequences can be the result, not only for you but for the other person as well.
There's really a lot more that can be said about the subject, but for now know that there is such a thing as good personal relationship boundaries. Also know that God realizes that these are important for you, and that He is willing to help you find and repair your boundaries as well. Remember that the God of peace will make you complete in every good work to do His will – even in the area of your relationships.

Roger Taylor reveals a song off his upcoming solo album "Fun on Earth."
Drummer Roger Taylor of Queen recently premiered a new track "Sunny Day" during an exclusive BBC Radio appearance. The song comes off Taylor's upcoming fifth solo record "Fun on Earth," due out on October 25 through Parlophone Records. You can check out the tune's snippet below. The album itself is a solo effort by all means, as it features Roger handling each of the instrumental, as well as vocal and writing duties. Several guest artists did however make their appearances, including Jeff Beck, Bob Geldof and Neil Murray. When it comes to "Sunny Day," Jason Falloon gave a contribution with his guitar work. "Fun on Earth" comes as slightly overdue, seeing that the recording sessions kicked off almost five years ago, sometime during late 2008. With 13 tracks, the album clocks in at just over 45 minutes. Check out the full track listing below. "Fun on Earth" track listing: 01. One Night Stand 02. Fight Club 03. Be With You 04. Quality Street 05. I Don't Care 06. Sunny Day 07. Be My Gal (My Brightest Spark) 08. I Am the Drummer (in a Rock N' Roll Band) 09. Small 10. Say It's Not True 11. The Unblinking Eye (Everything Is Broken) 12. Up 13. Smile
The new song fetched a few comparisons with Rod Stewart when it comes to vocal delivery. Let us know whether you agree in the comments.

Bloom Wants 'Hobbit' Role
Orlando Bloom is desperate to reprise his role as an elf-prince in upcoming Lord of the Rings prequel The Hobbit — he's already asked Peter Jackson for a part in the new movie.
The British actor landed his breakthrough role playing Legolas in Jackson's 2001 epic The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring, and he went on to star in the two sequels.
Work has now begun on a prequel, based on J.R.R. Tolkien's The Hobbit — the book which began the fantasy story franchise — and Bloom wants to be involved.
He admits he has already emailed Lord of the Rings director Jackson, who will write the screenplay for the film, to inquire about the casting.
He tells MTV.com, "I shot an email to Pete and I said, 'You know, if you want me to don the blond wig and pointy ears again, I'd be honored to do it.' He said — funnily enough — 'Well, we'll see.' They're very, very hush-hush."
But Bloom admits the decision may rest with Guillermo del Toro, who will direct the blockbuster.
He adds, "It's Guillermo's movie and I'm a huge fan of that man. He's obviously going to take his own idea of it, but I'm excited for that movie. I think it's going to be great."
The film will be released in two parts, with the first picture expected in 2012.

Question on basketball and Crisler Arena
Plan B's and NIT's. Beat State and find that bridge to the dance.
We will make the tournament, so it won't matter.
Since both the men and women are on the bubble, if either ends up in the NIT, they will find a way to make it work.
"We are currently spending a lot of time fine-tuning our construction schedules for Crisler and we will be prepared to consider our options if the opportunity to host games presents itself," Michigan athletic director Dave Brandon wrote in an e-mail to AnnArbor.com on Friday afternoon. "We are also working on some interesting contingency plans since it might be necessary for us to come up with some creative alternatives if we do have a situation where we want to consider hosting games but our construction schedule creates conflicts.
That's all I was looking for. I want us to make the field of 68 as much as the next guy, was just looking for a little info. Glad someone was interested in answering a question rather then throwing a tantrum!
Maybe Ira Weintraub (I think it was he who was talking about Yost vs Crisler for basketball during the Cazzie Russell discussion on WTKA) will get his wish and be able to experience a basketball game at Yost.
I've always thought having a "throwback game" promotion and playing it at Yost would be pretty cool. Obviously would prefer not to have it an option until next season (i.e. no NIT).
Do the teams wear classic uniforms?
Who wears short shorts?!
"it might be necessary for us to come up with some creative alternatives "
Helllloooooo college basketball at the Big House!
I'm all in.
you speak of?
This is probably a minority view...
If we're hosting games, it's for the NIT. I'm not saying that it doesn't matter, but the NIT is the Europa League to the NCAA Tournament's Champions League. It's second rate. I don't really care about it. What I do care about is how shitty Crisler is. I personally think it's more important that they get this construction done for the sake of the program than advance in the NIT. I think the construction will have a more lasting impact on the program, the fans, the school than one NIT, one year.
we have to beat state (which i know we are going to win) but they are going to give up a fight but we will come out with the knockout.
I care about Michigan whinning. I don't care if it's football, gymnastics or Jenga. If they don't get in, the NCAA is dead, long-live the NIT.

So the Little Lady has fully tested her Bobble and is extremely happy with it. She can keep it in her purse without worrying about it leaking all over her stuff. It's fairly sturdy and she can drink out of it easily. She uses it all the time. I have a feeling I'll be buying a new filter for it in 2 months, give or take.
I enjoy mine, too. I like that I can set it on my bed and not worry about it spilling so that I don't have to get up in the middle of the night for water. Especially now since I'm taking Mucinex for this damn head cold. It seriously does help, by the way. The only issue is that you have to drink enough water to kill a camel to keep hydrated. Well, my Bobble comes in handy for that. Except when I'm really seriously dried out and I can't seem to get enough. Then I get up and get a glass of water to guzzle down. (This stuff seriously dehydrates you!)
They are easy to drink out of, but I feel it's harder for me. I squeeze and suck (yeah I know, but what other word do you want me to use?) at the same time in order to feel like I am getting something out of it. For a drink here and there, no problem, but when you're taking something that dehydrates you, it's too slow. I'll be taking it to work with me anyway. I do enjoy it.
They are a touch expensive if you ask me, 10 bucks for an 18.5 ounce bottle that comes with a filter. The replacement filters are around 7 bucks each. So basically you're paying for a reusable bottle that filters tap water. If your work place doesn't utilize a water cooler or other filtration system, this will help you increase your water intake big time. The Little Lady drinks two of these a day, plus she gets water from food and juice, so you can see how much it's helped.
Our recommendation would be if you know you aren't getting enough water and you don't have access to filtered water at work or your faucet doesn't take a Pur or Brita water system (or you don't want to pay for them either) that the Bobble would be helpful to your plight of getting filtered water from almost any tap. Later.


text: Both are super nice guys. Especially Alan. I felt bad for him because most of the people at the event were fucking Rednecks(Art of War 4). When he got into the cage to talk to the crowd no one really knew who he was. He and his girlfriend were about to come into the sports bar upstairs at the Casino but turned and walked away. So I went out and kinda yelled at him(we were about 50 feet away) and held up my camera. He laughed and walked back to me. He was really personable. But no one else knew who he was.... He and his girlfriend were really hungry and the bar was packed so they decided not to even try to go in. I was a little more drunk when Ricco made it out(and he is looking way slimmer too). He put up with my drunken rambling about how he should go beat Nogs ass in the cage with class. I was sloshed and he seemed tired but he was still really polite and did pictures. Then security threatened to take my camera away because we were in the casino floor Nasal lost I don't know what happened. After his last KO loss he seemed like he didn't want to get hit. He fought a guy that was really strong and had "black belt level grappling". Nasal just kept shooting and getting stuff and pulling guard but could never do anything with it. He got TKOed in the 3rd. He just didn't fight with intensity like he did against Javiar. It was sad to watch. He told me later that the guy was (and you have to imagine it with the accent) "So so strong and great gward. his gward was really strong" Ha, I love his accent. At the bar I went to buy a beer and he charged me 4.50. I almost gave the beer back! Then I saw these for 15 bucks. Fuckin' right. They also had dancers(not strippers) that were in all four corners of the room up high to keep the crowd entertained between fights. And entertain they did. They could DANCE. Me and one of my instructors. He owns the school. As the night went on I just got drunker and goofier looking. Fun night with some good fights.

CAIRO, July 10 (Reuters) - Egypt's annual urban consumer price inflation slightly rose in June to 29.8 percent from 29.7 percent in May, the official CAPMAS statistics agency said on Monday.
Egypt hiked fuel prices on Thursday by up to 50 percent to help meet the terms of a $12 billion International Monetary Fund loan agreement.

The hotel is a bit strange in the layout on the second floor above the lobby but that is just my impression. The rooms have always been clean and I have never had any issues with service.
Two things to note. The location is not the safest (no place really is anymore) so I hide or remove any valuables from my vehicle and this hotel almost always has tour groups staying here from overseas. I like that because I find most of them friendly (they are on vacation so attitudes are good) and often they want information on where they are going which I share when I can.
Over all this has always been a decent, affordable place to stay.

St Blues Bluesmaster P-Bass Guitar (Similar to Fender)
Sold for:
Start Free Trial
or Sign In to see what it's worth.
- Sold Date:
- Source: eBay UK
Hi thanks for looking...I am reluctantly selling my pride and joy that is my bass guitar. I sold all my other equipment months ago and really wanted to keep hold of this but I'll never play it so it may as well go to a decent home. Any bassist that is into Blues or Jazz will have heard of this manufacturer - St. Blues. Legendary Memphis, TN company. Check out their website for more information. This is a remodel of the orignal P-Bass style bass that is made in Korea (I know this because it's written on the bass itself) which is lucky for you as it means it is not worth '000's of pounds. I'm not actually a jazz bassist. I played this in a heavy metal band and the tone with an Orange Bass set up was ridiculous. But with any amp this bass would still sound amazing. Not a single mark on this bass. I checked it all over and it's just as good as the day it is made. The reason for this is that I have kept it from purchase in a 'Spider' hardcase which is included in the sale. This cost me around £70 and it is flawless. Also included are 2 planet waves 15m cables which as you know have a lifetime guarantee. Should you want any more information feel free to contact me Cash on collection preferred but Paypal is fine. Also - the listing states collection only but I can ... read more

How the Best Job Boards Attract the Most Advertisers
Plans for the best job boards are rather hollow if the candidates aren't there. It's a catch-22. Candidates won't have a reason to come if there aren't any job ads.

Ponting to join squad
Australia captain Ricky Ponting will take part in the World Twenty20 after his wife recovered from a health scare.
By Chris Ellison
Last Updated: 07/09/07 11:10am
Ricky Ponting will lead Australia at the World Twenty20 after his wife recovered from a health scare.
Ponting did not fly out to South Africa with the rest of the squad, instead remaining at home with his ill wife Rianna.
However, the 32-year-old is now expected to fly to Johannesburg and join his team-mates in time for the start of the competition.
"Fortunately Rianna's health has improved over the last few days and I'm hoping travel plans can be finalised as soon as possible," he told tvnz.co.nz on Friday.
"I'm grateful for the support we've both had from Cricket Australia and my team-mates. It made things easier here knowing the team was in such good hands.
"With things on the improve, Rianna and I are both keen that I now focus on the job at hand with the Australian team."
Watson boost
Australia received another boost going into the tournament with the news that all-rounder Shane Watson is fit to play.
Media Manager Lachy Patterson said: "Shane has recovered sufficiently from the hamstring injury he sustained training in Brisbane last Sunday to join the squad in South Africa."
Paceman Stuart Clark has also arrived in Johannesburg after attending to his sick son.
Australia begin their Twenty20 campaign against Zimbabwe in Cape Town on Wednesday September 12.

Journal article
Monotone and Cash-Invariant Convex Functions and Hulls
This paper provides some useful results for convex risk measures. In fact, we consider convex functions on a locally convex vector space E which are monotone with respect to the preference relation implied by some convex cone and invariant with respect to some numeraire ("cash"). As a main result, for any function f, we find the greatest closed convex monotone and cash-invariant function majorized by f. We then apply our results to some well-known risk measures and problems arising in connection with insurance regulation
Keywords: Constrained risk measures ; Convex duality ; Infimal convolution ; Insurance regulation ; Monotone and cash-invariant functions and hulls

Nate Hutt is completing a doctor of physical therapy degree in the Department of Kinesiology. After serving in the military, he is focusing on physical therapy to help wounded veterans. He was interviewed for a post that was first published in the College of Agriculture, Health, and Natural Resources' newsletter Naturally@UConn.
Where did you study as an undergraduate?
I received my associate degree from Quinebaug Valley Community College in 2004 and completed my bachelor's degree online through American Military University in 2012 while I was serving in the Marine Corps. I completed my prerequisites for the physical therapy program at Eastern Connecticut State University after I left the military in 2013.
What was your major?
My associate degree is in liberal arts and sciences. My bachelor's is in security management and counterterrorism studies.
Why did you decide to go to graduate school?
I had always intended on staying in the military in a combat role, but when I was in Libya in 2013 my priorities changed. I decided that I wanted a career that wouldn't require me to travel and be away from home all the time, and wouldn't stress my family out so much. I also wanted to find a career that would allow me to help other veterans and service members. Given my background in both tactical fitness and as a CrossFit coach, helping to heal them with exercise just seemed like the best option for me.
Who is your advisor?
The great and wonderful Laurie Devaney, physical therapist extraordinaire!
What is your field of research?
I am currently in my third year of the physical therapy program here at UConn. The most exciting research that I'm involved in right now is attempting to identify a new subtype of Parkinson's disease in Agent Orange-exposed veterans as well as defining DaT scan image findings so they can be used to stage the severity of the disease. My specific fields of interest at this point are all over the place – neurological rehabilitation, orthopedics, amputee rehab, even pediatrics. We'll see where life takes me though!
Name one aspect of your work that you like.
I love that my profession allows me to prescribe physical activity as medicine. I had given thought to other health care fields, but I don't exactly subscribe to the usual medical model of patient care. I'm skeptical of most pharmaceuticals, and hesitant to ever recommend that a person get surgery. Exercise and nutrition are, in my opinion, the most underutilized yet necessary components to healing and recovery. I'm confident that the rehabilitation program that I build for my patients will benefit them, without the risks and doubts that often come with medication and surgery.
What do you feel is your greatest accomplishment so far?
My clinical affiliation with Walter Reed Army Medical Center, which I'm currently completing. It was a highly competitive selection process, and now that I'm there it's extremely demanding, but there's nowhere else I'd rather be. I'm seeing some of the bravest patients in the world, and I feel beyond honored to have a hand in their care.
What do you hope to do once you get your degree?
I will probably re-join the military as a physical therapist so that I can use my new skill set to heal our nation's heroes. There are other populations that I care deeply for as well, but the men and women that volunteer to risk their lives for the people I care about will always hold a special place in my heart.
Is there anything else you would like us to know about you?
I was the most unlikely person ever to end up at UConn studying to be a doctor of physical therapy. I grew up poor in a bad area. I got kicked out of high school and had to earn my GED. I was homeless for a period when I was younger. Even just a few years ago, I never would have thought that I would be in a doctoral program, about to be a licensed health care professional today. If you're considering graduate school but doubt your potential, let me use this chance to tell you to get out there and go for it. Don't wait for opportunity to find you. Just go out there and make your own luck. Figure out what you want, make a plan and execute. It's your world – we all just live in it!

Things Desi parents say to their children!
Indian parents say the most ridiculous and outrageous things at times, just to prove their point, or get their children to obey them. In most cases, Indian dads hold unreasonably high expectations from their kids, and almost anything that isn't an NCERT book or a help book is considered a distraction. Indian moms though, are extremely emotional, sensitive, adorably (well, most times) over-protective and hold onto old-age traditions like our lives depend on them. If you're an Indian kid who's grown up in a 'sanskari' family, you're definitely going to be able to relate to all these phrases that are brown parents' favourites:
- "You're going out? Who? When? Where?" a.k.a I need everyone's janam kundali before I give an approval
As an Indian kid, you've most likely had to ask your parents every time your friends invited you to a party, or even just to go out and relax someplace nice for a while. And in order to get your parents' permission, your mother will need to know all about who you're going out with, where you're going, when you'll be back, and also why you need to go out for lunch when you get food at home. And if at all there's a name on that list of friends that she hasn't heard of before, she is going to need to know all about them before you can leave. "Soniya? Who's this Soniya? I've never heard that name before…"
- "You don't feel well? All because of that damn phone you're always on! I swear, I'm going to throw it away someday"
Doesn't matter if you have a headache, a stomach ache, or if you've scraped your knee. If you're an Indian kid, the root of all illness is the innocent smart phone. Doesn't matter if they use their phone just as much as you, or even more than you with all the 'family groups' on whatsapp that they spam all day, but our smart phones are always the ones being blamed.
- "Look at Sharma Ji's children"
Now, there's always the neighbor's kid, or that cousin from IIT that you're always getting compared to. Maybe the universe is just trying to mess with us, but there's ALWAYS a kid in the family that your parents are constantly using to set an example. We know what Sharma Ji's children are up to behind Sharma uncle's back, but our parents would never understand. Comparison is key.
- "I'll get you a warm glass of milk with haldi (turmeric)"
No matter what injury it is. Might not even be an injury, could be just a cold, or a tummy ache. Just as the cause of all problems is the smart phone, the solution to all of them is Haldi doodh. Indian parents have immense faith in the magical healing properties of turmeric milk. Turmeric is anti-inflammatory, but you really don't have to give me that disgusting drink for everything!
- "It's Tuesday/Thursday/Saturday/Monday/the sun has set. Don't cut nails, don't wash your hair, don't eat meat"
Yep, the days are different across different cultures, but most houses believe in these superstitions. And not just these, but Indian parents in general believe in some really weird superstitions. And if you don't want to get lectured on your rebellious, ungrateful, rude and obnoxious behavior now that you're a teenager/adult, it's best that you just follow them.
- "Thappad khaana hai? (Do you want to get slapped?)
Having grown up in Indian households, most of us are familiar with this phrase. It would be shocking and unacceptable to a white kid, but us, we're used to it. The moment we mess up, (which is A LOT), we can expect the threat. It's the easier way for our parents to save us all the explanation, rationalization, negotiation, consolation, and basically just ask us to check ourselves.
- "Come out of your room for once and socialize" With weird relatives.
Indian parents never hesitate to push their kids into uncomfortable conversations with relatives. Relatives who will casually joke about how you're getting old and ask you awkward questions about when you want to get married, relatives who will 'jokingly' criticize your career choice (only if you've chosen anything other than wanting to become an engineer, doctor, lawyer, or IAS officer), relatives who will also very casually pass snide remarks about your horrible cooking, your weight, your height, your complexion… just about anything. Relatives like these, who needs enemies? And our parents ask us why we're always holed up in the room and never want to socialize with our wonderful uncles and aunties.
This is the trump card. You're having a heated argument that's been going on for a while, and just when you think you might be winning, they use THE phrase. Any valid, logical arguments you have made till now, or you were going to make are now invalid. There is no point, you've lost the battle. End of conversation, and they win.

Hundreds of students and teachers have smashed windows and started fires inside a state capital building in southern Mexico, as fury erupted over the disappearance of 43 young people believed to have been abducted by local police linked to a drug cartel.
The protesters called for the safe return of the students from a rural teachers' college in Guerrero state, who have been missing since 26 September, even though fears have grown that 10 newly discovered mass graves could contain their bodies.
Associated Press photographs showed smoke billowing from the government building in Chilpancingo, the capital of Guerrero, and flames licking from office windows. Firefighters battled the blaze.
The government spokesman, José Villanueva Manzanarez, said the protesting members of a teachers' union initially tried to get into the state congress in Chilpancingo but were repelled by anti-riot police. They then headed to the state government palace.

Luxury accommodation in the refreshingly rural Kuils River
Nestled at the foot of the Bottelary Mountains is Kuils River, a tranquil destination that has only just been "discovered" by those visiting and living in Cape Town. This small town allows residents to live a rural lifestyle while not having to let go of the modern comforts and amenities of nearby Cape Town, as it is only a 30 minute drive from the Mother City. The accommodation in Kuils River is upmarket yet still exudes a certain country charm.
Kuils River began as a cattle fold of the Dutch East India Company in the antiquated 1600s and later became a staging post en route to Stellenbosch. The rustic quirkiness of the area can be seen in the original farms and small holdings which still stand today. Farming continues alongside the larger industries which sustain Kuils River - Coca Cola and Nampak are just two of the major manufacturers which operate out of the beautiful town. Cow crossings can still be found in the town, as a testimony to its agricultural setting. The residents are immensely proud of Zevenwacht Wine Estate, which lies at the edge of the Stellenbosch wine route.
The accommodation in Kuilsriver offers visitors a variety of choice, ranging from intimate self-catering units to larger hotels, most of which are highly rated. Nearby attractions include the beautifully kept old church buildings as well as the ever popular Stellenbosch wine route. If you are looking for modern amenities and entertainment, the Zevenwacht Shopping Mall is the place for you! Kuils River is in close proximity to the N1, N2 and R300, but as none of these major roads run directly through the town, it has managed to avoid becoming commercialised.
If you are looking for comfortable, stylish accommodation in Kuils River, read through the advertisements listed in this category.

"Blood test fiasco"
About: Russells Hall Hospital / Clinical haematology Russells Hall Hospital Clinical haematology DY1 2HQ
Posted via NHS Choices
I went to Corbett Hospital, Stourbridge, today (Wednesday, 31st August 2016) for a routine blood test. I arrived at 10.15 am and left at 12.15 pm - exactly two hours later. I have no idea whether the delay was caused by a shortage of phlebotomists, a massive in-rush of patients - or both. But - whatever the reason - it is totally unacceptable. To make matters worse - as if they could be any worse - no one had the courtesy or professionalism to explain the nature of the problem to the ever-growing queue of patients (either by a notice posted in the waiting room or by a simple announcement). In no other walk of life would this level of incompetence and arrogance be tolerated. Why do NHS managers alone think this level of 'service' is OK?
Response from Russells Hall Hospital 14 months ago
Thank you, Linda, for taking the time to give us feedback about your visit to Corbett Outpatient Centre. We are sorry to hear you were disappointed with the service you received at our blood test clinic.
We appreciate that a two-hour wait must have been uncomfortable for you and apologise for the inconvenience. Our walk-in blood test clinics are extremely popular with patients, and are particularly busy following a bank holiday. We do our very best to plan staff and resources according to expected patient numbers; however, due to the nature of a walk-in service, it is difficult to accurately anticipate how many patients will need to be seen.
If there are considerable delays, we do ask staff to keep patients fully informed about the length of wait expected as best they can. We must apologise if this did not happen during your visit and have raised this with the team.
If you need to have a blood test in the future, you may wish to consider using our booked appointment service. If you do not wish to sit and wait, you can book a blood test at any of 13 GP practices across the borough. You do not have to be registered at the practice to use this service.. You can view a full list of these surgeries and instructions for booking on our website: http://dudleygroup.nhs.uk/patients-and-visitors/blood-tests/

The lights are on
Update: Filming for Star Wars: Episode VIII concluded this summer, and we should be seeing a teaser early in the new year, accompanied with a title. The latest rumor for the name comes from a trademark filing through the European Union Intellectual Property Office. The name filed is Star Wars: Forces of Destiny. As AVS Forum points out, the filing is for an extensive list of retail items, such as coin purses, pencils, action figures, and more.
I think it's a weak title, but it does perhaps point to Lucasfilm trying to link this new trilogy through the word "Force." So there would be the Prequel trilogy, Original trilogy, and Force Trilogy. As always, give us your two cents on the title in the comments section below.
Original Story: Filming is officially underway for Rian Johnson's Star Wars: Episode VIII. Fans are flocking to the internet with rumors and photos from the film's sets. Most of these rumors won't be verifiable until the film hits theaters on December 17, 2017, and they should all be taken with a huge grain of salt at this point, but it is fun to discuss them and see what people are learning and thinking. Moreover, pertaining specifically to the name of the film, it'll be fun to see who was the first (or closest) to getting it right.
Within the last 24 hours we've seen two different titles for Episode VIII. The first supposedly comes from leaked promotional materials appearing on Reddit. The title on the reported promotional poster is Star Wars: Tale of the Jedi Temple. The Reddit post says it is being prepped for a May 4 (Star Wars Day) reveal.
The second name to make the rounds is tied to Episode VIII's filming in Dubrovnik, Croatia. Star Wars news site MOS Croatia claims the movie is called Star Wars: The Order of the Dark Side, but no context for where the name came from was given.
Films often have working titles well into development. Star Wars: The Force Awakens was almost Star Wars: Shadow of the Empire.

Milborne St Andrew Better Protected From Flooding
10:43am 27th October 2014
It's hoped villagers in Milborne St Andrew will now be better protected from flooding.
Work has been taking place to put in a new drainage system to allow flood waters to disperse more quickly.
Households had to put up with sustained flooding last winter due to the heavy rainfall, which even cut off the local doctor's surgery and village shop.
The new drainage work will also allow emergency pumps to be fitted quickly if they're needed.

11 Highlights of the Billboard Top Singles Chart From This Week in August 1993
written by Sam Greenspan
Yesterday, I randomly found myself on
looking at their charts. Scrolling through the list, I remembered something I used to love looking at several years back: The historical charts. Seeing what songs were big five, 10 or 15 years ago.
I clicked on the chart from 15 years ago, and was shocked to see that I recognized pretty much every song. Fifteen years ago was 1993 at this point (which temporarily freaked me out) -- and at this point in 1993, at age 14, I knew my music.
Here are 11 highlights from the Billboard chart of
15 years ago
. (Apologies to all who read this in the archives... that link won't work and I don't want to get a cease-and-desist for transcribing the list here.)
The number one song is UB40's "Can't Help Falling In Love". Which was featured in the movie "Sliver". (Ha! "Sliver"! Remember that mess?
If there was ever a movie that was just begging to be shown once a month on Showtime 4 at 10:30 P.M., it's "Sliver".
This number one is not exactly groundbreaking -- that song was a huge hit for Elvis and it's pretty timeless, so there's always money to be made in a cover.
In fact, here's a list of other people who've covered it (thanks to
for filling in the gaps in my memory): Perry Como, The A*Teens, Rick Astley, Julio Iglesias, Bob Dylan, Shirley Bassey, Clay Aiken, Katharine McPhee and, most importantly, COREY HART.
Tag Team's "Whoomp! There It Is"
95 South's "Whoot, There It Is"
Number two is Tag Team's "Whoomp! (There It is)". People my age will remember that
the summer of '93 was a famous battleground between two almost identical songs: Tag Team's "Whoomp! There It Is" and 95 South's "Whoot, There It Is".
This week, "Whoot" was only number 12, and never got higher than 11.
Why "Whoomp" was ultimately more successful than "Whoot" is something of a mystery, and probably worthy of some deep academic research. My guess: I just watched both videos, and "Whoot" comes across much more dirty South than "Whoomp".
And, in 1993, white people weren't ready for the dirty South. So "Whoomp" won out because, for better or worse, for rap to be commercially successful, white people have to buy it too.
Radiohead's "Creep" was number 41. If back then you would've told us that
(1) that would be Radiohead's most commercially successful song and (2) regardless, they'd become the quintessential "cool band" of the 2000s
... I'm not sure a single person in the world would've believed you.
"Boom! Shake The Room" by DJ Jazzy Jeff and the Fresh Prince was number 39 this week, 15 years ago. That's pretty significant because, as I speculated when I saw that and my research confirmed,
that was the last hit single that they had together
... before DJ Jazzy Jeff went on to great things (like playing the role of "Jazz" on a hit NBC sitcom) and the Fresh Prince disappeared under the rock of obscurity.
There are
a few fantastic one-hit wonders on the list.
"Slam" by Onyx at number 14... "Dazzey Duks" by Duice at 15... "Show Me Love" by Robin S. at 16... and "What's Up" by 4 Non Blondes at 19. I really loved that last one. You can still say "And I pray, oh my [high pitched voice] God, do I pray" and every single person from this generation knows exactly what you're referencing.
Of course, none of those compares to H-Town's "Knockin Da Boots" at 22. Because that song is the answer to one of my favorite trivia questions ever:
This was the first song ever sang on "American Idol".
Seriously. Some girl sang it, did a mediocre job and got dismissed by the judges.
And now I lay back and wonder what the guys of H-Town thought when they saw that. Was it, "Some girl just sang our eight-year-old song on national TV" or "Holy shit, we're getting a royalty check"?
SWV's "Right Here (Human Nature)"
There are two SWV songs in the top 13. Two! "Weak", obviously, at number six (it peaked at number one). And some song called "Right Here (Human Nature)", which I don't remember, at number 13.
Apparently it peaked at number two. I've got to think that
this week, or one near it, was the highlight of the women of SWV's collective lives.
[Note: So after I wrote all that, I went on YouTube and actually watched the video for this song and I completely remembered it. I even remembered a lot of the lyrics. And for some reason it made me really nostalgic. I have no idea why. Something about these women singing "right here waa waa" brought back a whole flood of summer-after-8th-grade memories. I wonder if that's going to happen to me when 15 years from now I hear "No Air" or "When I Grow Up".]
There are two songs on the list that I really like but didn't discover (strangely enough) until the past few years: Sting's "Fields of Gold" and Big Daddy Kane and Spinderella's "Very Special". Not sure how I missed either of those.
I guess I wasn't the "with it" 14-year-old I thought I was.
Number 37 is "Run To You" by Whitney Houston, from "The Bodyguard" soundtrack.
Has there ever been a soundtrack that came even close to that in terms of success?
Even completely obscure and not-that-good songs like "Run To You" were hits off it.
This has to be the quintessential example of great soundtrack, shitty movie. I can't think of another one that even comes close. ("Mannequin" maybe?)
Kris Kross "Alright"
Some Kris Kross song called "Alright" is number 23. This led me to Kris Kross's Wikipedia page, which educated me that these guys actually had a LOT of singles make the charts. (Not just "Jump" and "Warm It Up").
I went to YouTube to reacquaint myself with "Alright". Apparently, since this was 1993 and not 1992,
Kris Kross had outgrown their clothes backwards phase and were now in their "we're gangsta, we swear" phase.
I did not remember this song.
And finally, I'd be remiss not to mention the song that was number three this week... its peak position... and which, arguably, is
the most timeless song on the list. "I'm Gonna Be (500 Miles)" by the Proclaimers!
I think I'd pay $25 to see a Proclaimers concert. Which doesn't seem like a lot but keep in mind, most county fairs (where I assume they play) only cost $5 to get into ($3 if you're a veteran)... so I think offering to pay a 500% premium on that is pretty generous.
