India was one of the 40 co-sponsors of the Resolution in the UNGA for the admission of the Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia [FYROM]. India established Diplomatic and Consular relations with FYROM on February 9, 1995. India now refers to the country as the Republic of Macedonia in bilateral communications.
The Indian Embassy in Bulgaria is concurrently accredited to Macedonia. In 2006, the Government of Macedonia appointed an Indian businessman in New Delhi as its Honorary Consul before proceeding to open a full-fledged Embassy in New Delhi on October 7, 2008.
The Government of India appointed an Honorary Consul to Macedonia in 2008. The Macedonian government appointed an Honorary Consul in Kolkata in 2009 and has subsequently appointed Honorary Consuls in Chennai, Bangalore and Mumbai.
Macedonian Foreign Minister Antonio Milososki paid first official visit to India from 20-24 January, 2009. He also visited the memorial home of Mother Teresa (who was born in Macedonia) in Kolkata. The second Foreign Office Consultations between India and Macedonia took place in New Delhi on 15 September, 2010.
Macedonian Prime Minister Nikola Gruevski, accompanied by the Dy. PM and Minister of Finance and the Minister of Foreign Investments paid a visit to India from March 5-8 March, 2012 to promote economic linkages between the two countries and to showcase the investment and business opportunities in Macedonia to Indian investors. PM Gruevski called on the Indian PM on 5 March. During the meeting, various issues of mutual interest including bilateral and multilateral issues were discussed.
In continuation of PM's visit, Deputy PM and Finance Minister Zoran Stavreski, accompanied by the Ministers of Information Society & Administration and Foreign Investments and Director of Technological Industrial Development Zones, visited India in October, 2012 and gave presentations on benefits Macedonia offered to foreign investors in six Indian cities.
Minister of State for External Affairs Smt. Preneet Kaur, accompanied by a business delegation of the CII, visited Macedonia on 10-11 July 2012 and met FM Nikola Poposki, Dy PM and Finance Minister Zoran Stavrevski and Chairman of the Committee on Foreign Policy and former FM, Antonio Milososki. The talks focussed on potential for improving the bilateral cooperation between the two countries including economy, culture and education & science. This was the first visit by an Indian Minister to Macedonia. An MoU between CII and the Macedonian Industry Associations was signed during the visit.
President of the Macedonian National Assembly Trajko Veljanoski led a Parliamentary delegation on an official visit to India from 5-8 March 2013. During the visit, he met the Vice President, the Lok Sabha Speaker and Minister of State for External Affairs Smt. Preneet Kaur. The delegation also witnessed a joint session of the two houses of Parliament.
Macedonian Foreign Minister Nikola Poposki visited New Delhi and Agra on 16 & 17 December 2013 and met the External Affairs Minister Shri Salman Khurshid. The two Ministers agreed that the bilateral political relations set solid foundation for bolstering the economic cooperation. Mr. Poposki also met Minister of State for External Affairs Smt. Preneet Kaur, Minister of State for Commerce and Industry and representatives of CII. A Double Taxation Avoidance Agreement and an MoU on Cooperation between the Diplomatic Academy of the Macedonian Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the Foreign Service Institute of Ministry of External Affairs were signed.
PM Gruevski paid a 6-day visit to India from 11-17 January 2015 to attend the Vibrant Gujarat [VGS] Summit in Gandhinagar, the CII-Partnership Summit in Jaipur and to address business fora in Chennai and Kolkata. He met PM Modi on the VGS sidelines and discussed ways to bolster business cooperation. Gruevski also met VGS's host, Gujarat Chief Minister Anandiben Patel. Gruevski took part in a business forum in Chennai and presented investment opportunities in Macedonia. Gruevski addressed the CII-Partnership Summit 2015 in Jaipur and also met Commerce and Industry Minister Nirmala Sitharaman, Railways Minister Suresh Prabhu, Rajasthan Chief Minister Vasundhara Raje and CII DG Chandrajit Banerjee.
(a) Bilateral Investment Promotion and Protection Agreement (BIPA), was signed on 17 March 2008. (b) Agreement on the Mutual exemption of visa requirements for holders of Diplomatic passports was signed during the visit of Macedonian FM to India in January, 2009. The Agreement came into force on 15 May, 2010. (c) Agreements on Avoidance of Double Taxation was signed on 17 December 2013. (d) MoU on Cooperation between the Diplomatic Academy of the Macedonian Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the Foreign Service Institute of Ministry of External Affairs was signed on 17 December 2013.
Indian investments in Macedonia are limited but show an upward trend. In 2004, Arcelor Mittal took over Balkan Steel and later also bought the state-owned shares, amounting to 90% of the ownership. A subsidiary of Bang Overseas Ltd., Mumbai, (Bang & Scott DOO, Macedonia) was incorporated in September 2011. The company is into trading of fabrics and garment manufacturing. In 2013, Sahara Group announced its intention to build the 'Saharayan Makeeduniya' Complex at the Ohrid Lake shore and an integrated dairy, animal husbandry and allied agriculture farm. However, Sahara's projects do not seem to have progressed as envisaged due to various factors.
Government of India offers scholarships under ITEC programme to Macedonia. Macedonian nationals have also been attending the Professional Courses for Foreign Diplomats (PCFD) organised by the Foreign Service Institute. e Institute.
The Indian community in Macedonia is very small. There are about 10 Indian nationals working in senior managerial positions in ArcelorMittal Steel, some Indian nationals engaged in the IT sector and the officials of the Sahara Parivar.

Hey, do you have any tips on how to tell a story in one picture? Do you know of any exercises or anything that I could try? I want to create more intricate and 'deep' pieces, but I feel they always fall flat because I can't convey the story and emotions as I need to
Hi anon
Interesting question! How to convey a story in one pic!
The first thing to do, even before starting to sketch anything, is telling the story to yourself. Who is the main character? Is there any other character? What do they do? How do they interact with the main character(s)? In what environment? What is the mood of the story? Is it something "factual" (like a character falling from a bike for instance) or is it much more of an introspection piece? Picture it in your head. It's the first step, if you can picture the image in your head, its composition, its mood, its colors, you've already done a lot.
Then, when
you start laying your idea on the paper/PS canvas, you have to keep in mind the
things listed below. To help you understand, I'm gonna use one of my own
drawings that you can find HERE, without all the color guidelines. It shows a
missing scene from the movie Civil War: Bucky Barnes is on the run, in a small apartment in Bucharest, Romania.
1) The
composition and the lighting. When you look at this art, the first thing you
notice is Bucky and before you tell me "Yes,
but on the other hand, it's the only character on the pic so it's obvious!",
I'm gonna tell you: NOPE. Your eyes are attracted to Bucky first (and not to
the fridge or something on the foreground) because thanks to the lighting and
the composition, he's the main focus. You are looking where I wanted you to
look (*evil laugh*). The main light source is right above his head and the rest
of the artwork is in the shadow. The closer you are to Bucky, the lighter the
picture is. In addition, I surrounded Bucky with elements that create a kind of
circle around him (the cupboards, the fridge, the cushion on the sofa) so you
know that he's the main element. However, this "circle" is suffocating, it's
here to show how small and uncomfortable the apartment is. I created a circle
thanks to the lighting and the position of various items but you can also achieve
this in your artwork by playing with blurred elements on the foreground or the background.
It creates an interesting depth of field. Thanks to this kind of tricks you are telling the viewer what is the main focus
of your story but you also set the mood of the picture. I couldn't see this
picture with a bright and flat lighting and or scene happening at daytime for instance, it
would have lacked this claustrophobic atmosphere.
2) The colors: the palette is going to set the mood of the picture alongside the shadows and highlights. On this pic, that I consider a sad picture because it's a moment where Bucky remembers who he is and everything he did in the past, I went for a warm palette but I desaturated it a bit. If the colors were too bright, we would have lost a good part of the sad narrative in the pic. It's also a subjective choice but I like warm palettes for introspective art.
3) The details hidden in the pic itself: The old wallpaper, the shitty apartment, the rotten walls, etc…it shows that Bucky is not in a happy environment. He's not in cozy apartment in NYC, he's not in a luxury hotel room, he's in an old apartment in Romania, with the bare minimum. He's still trying to figure out who he is and to gather details about his life (look at the fridge). However, some details are here to tell you about his daily routine and what he is doing: the grocery bag on the foreground with vegetables and fruits is here to show that he's trying to eat healthily. The food above the fridge are Romanian snack bars so, even if life isn't 200% great, he seems to enjoy little pleasures like junk food. However, his backpack with a gun right on top of it, is here to let you know that he doesn't feel secure and that he's ready to leave at any minute if the circumstances were not in his favor. Same with his clothes: they are convenient clothes (a Henley, a pair jeans, Timerberland/Dr Martens type of shoes), he's not wearing them to be fashionable. Thanks to fashion and various accessories, you can show a lot about a character, look at this pic of Natasha for instance. She's wearing Chanel earrings, you have Louboutin shoes and a "Birkin" bag at the back (I let you check the price of these items…). She is a sophisticated and elegant lady, she loves fashion, even the decoration of her apartment tells a story about her.
Thanks to
tiny details you can tell a lot about a character: blue circles under the eyes,
scars, clothes, messy or sophisticated haircut, etc…Think about that when you
draw your characters or even the environment they are in. The
devil story is in
the details
4) Body language and expression of the characters: Is Bucky smiling? Does he have a cocky attitude? No, what you see here is a guy that is not looking at the camera. He's exhausted, his shoulders are bent. You can feel he's lost in his thoughts, which is normal because it's an introspection piece. It's also a full body shot: thanks to this way of framing the character and his body language I showed you how alone he is. He looks almost small, vulnerable (and god know Sebastian Stan was buff when he shot this scene). Does it mean that every drawing with a full body shot means that the character is alone and sad? No, of course but this particular framing coupled with a dark lighting, a brown desaturated palette, a character with this precise body language and face expression does. If you don't know how to express body language properly, I recommend you this link: Body Language: An Artistic Writing Tool
All these elements are important, particularly the composition and the lighting. Remember what an absolute FAIL the "loss.jpg" image was. OMG, "loss.jpg "or how a picture supposed to depict a terrible and sad story (a miscarriage) became the internet's laughing stock because the artist was unable to convey the right atmosphere. Read about it here, it's very interesting.
TLDR: You
are gonna tell your story through the composition, the lighting, the colors, the
setting (a cozy place conveys a different kind of story than a wide open
space), all the details in the pic that will show your viewers what kind of
characters (or places) we are dealing with, but also the body language of the

Yoann Huget marked his return to the France team with a try, while Virimi Vakatawa scored a hat-trick in a commanding 52-8 victory over Samoa at the Stade Municipal in Toulouse.
A knee injury sustained in the opening match of the 2015 Rugby World Cup has kept Huget out of international action for more than a year.
However, the Toulouse wing touched down on familiar ground as France stormed to a fourth straight win in as many matches against Samoa, who were without the influential Tusi Pisi due to injury.
Guy Noves' team produced a slick attacking display as Vakatawa crossed three times, while Charles Ollivon and Gael Fickou also crossed either side of Reynold Lee-Lo's solitary try for the visitors.
Samoa took an early lead through a penalty from Patrick Fa'apale but Maxime Machenaud restored parity before Vakatawa dotted down the first try.
The ball was worked with speed to the wing on the left and he stepped inside full-back Paul Williams to cross, making the most of the hosts' incessant pressure.
Machenaud missed the conversion but was successful from a penalty in front of the posts, and Huget further enhanced France's advantage in the 29th minute.
Wesley Fofana stole possession from Alafoti Fa'osiliva and quickly sent a brilliant underhand offload to Huget, who raced in on the right-hand side for a triumphant comeback.
Another excellent pass from Fofana, this time a looping ball to the right, created a space which Ollivon darted through for his first international try ahead of half-time.
Lee-Lo made the most of a strong start to the second half from Samoa, creating a gap with a dummy to reduce the deficit, but France, who lost Francois Trinh-Duc to injury, hit back when Kevin Gourdon broke the line off a line-out to send Fickou in.
The hosts continued to move the ball excellently and Vakatawa was the beneficiary once again when he added his second in the corner, while their grit and power from the scrum was rewarded with a penalty try with four minutes remaining.
There was still time for Vakatawa to complete his hat-trick as France forced a turnover which the Fiji-born wing finished off by darting in from the left, rounding off a confidence-boosting win ahead of a meeting with Australia in Paris next Saturday.

Greek Civilization (3) The origin and development of the ancient Greek people; their political and social institutions, public and private life.
CAMS 025 Greek Civilization (3)
(BA) This course meets the Bachelor of Arts degree requirements.
Greek Civilization, CAMS 025 GH;GI, is an interdisciplinary and multimedia introduction to the major features of Greek civilization and its importance to the Western heritage. It shows how the ideals, achievements, but also the failures of ancient Greeks have shaped the values of Western civilization. The course begins with an overview of the geography of the areas around the Mediterranean Sea that were inhabited by Greeks in antiquity, the reasons for the location of major settlements, and an introduction to the precursors of the Hellenic peoples, such as the Minoans, whose cultural achievements preceded and influenced the earliest Greeks. The course then follows the 1,500-year long development of Greek history, literature, philosophy, art and archaeology from its early stages in the second millennium B.C.E. through the Hellenistic period. The course presents the political, social, religious, and economic structures of ancient Greece and issues of gender, slavery, foreigners, colonization, and imperial ambition that reward modern re-evaluation. The course particularly emphasizes the development of the Greek city-state, the polis, the unique political system of democracy, and the tension between the individual and the state through the sixth and fifth centuries B.C.E. that saw its greatest successes and the failures that led to the death of Socrates in 399 B.C.E. In this course students may gain an appreciation for the greatest achievements of Greek culture in the fields of literature and philosophy, in the work of poets from Homer and Hesiod to Aeschylus, Sophocles, and Euripides and from the great Ionian thinkers such as Thales to philosophers such as Plato and Aristotle. Because classical culture constitutes a major influence on modern western civilization, such study enables us to see where various aspects of our own society come from and so better understand ourselves. This course, then, emphasizes the similarities between the ancient Greeks and the modern world, thereby establishing the relevance of this study, while at the same time pointing out the differences between these two cultures, thereby providing the critical distance necessary for reflecting on ourselves.
In this course students prepare group projects and oral presentations and write essays that involve the use of library and Web-based tools such as Perseus, an extensive electronic resource for all aspects of ancient Greek culture. In this course students will read (English translations of) original Greek texts, will view many examples of Greek art, architecture, and artifacts, and will hear examples of music based on literary or mythological themes that originated with the Greeks. Through the readings, lectures, and discussions, students may learn methods for interpreting the historiographical, literary, and material evidence upon which we base our understanding of the ancient Greeks.
Note : Class size, frequency of offering, and evaluation methods will vary by location and instructor. For these details check the specific course syllabus.

The objectives of the Performance Conscious HPC (PeCoH) project are, firstly, to raise awareness and knowledge of users for performance engineering, i.e., to assist in identification and quantification of potential efficiency improvements in scientific codes and code usage. Secondly, the goal is to increase the coordination of performance engineering activities in Hamburg and to establish novel services to foster performance engineering that are then evaluated and implemented on participating data centers. The coordination is implemented by setting up and establishing a Hamburg regional HPC competence center (HHCC) as virtual organization that will be contributing to federalized HPC infrastructure of HLRN and the Gauß-Alliance. The HHCC will combine the strengths of the university data center (Regionales Rechenzentrum, RRZ), the German Climate Computing Center (DKRZ) and the data center of Technical University Hamburg-Harburg (TUHH).

Project Management
This project is funded by the DFG in the call Performance Engineering.
Please also see other funded projects in the call.
Work Program
The foundation of our work plan implements services on the HHCC for scientists of different fields. Those services offer basic support for performance engineering, co-development, and education. Furthermore they provide feedback for users and collect as well as disseminate knowledge for users' support. Orthogonal to those services, we research methods to raise user awareness for advanced performance engineering. The proposed methods cover cost-awareness, competence management, the demonstration of benefit via success stories and the quantification of benefit for alternative processing concepts.
An overview of the methods and services is given in the figure. Both services and methods benefit from each other: While services transfer computer science knowledge to scientists, they also identify and channel user needs and experience that is fed into the method development. The research strategies described by the methods are evaluated and resulting analyses are pushed into the service ecosystem. All the methods and services mentioned in the following will be implemented in close collaboration with the three data centers.
Competence management
There are conceptual competences relevant for most data centers – such as understanding the resource management, and hardware/software-specific competences like the performance expectation of collective MPI operations. We will increase transparency on the benefit of HPC competences, especially those relevant for performance engineering. Therefore, relevant competences are identified and classified according to necessity and usefulness for different scientific domains. We will also systematically analyze the need for performance optimization from the perspectives of a scientist and a data center. To make the competences more visible in the community, we will establish HPC certification levels. We will bundle teaching material required to master the various certification levels and organize standardized online examinations to acquire the certificates.
Executing a scientific application and keeping data is costly for the data center and, unfortunately, users are not aware of these costs. Understanding the cost for running applications and keeping data is important in identifying the benefit of optimization – which is costly in terms of brainware. We will develop models to approximate costs for scientists and foster the discussion with the open-source community to embed cost-efficiency computation into job summaries of resource managers. Additionally we will track the resource utilization and efficiency of applications and the data centers and provide this information to the users.
Success stories
According to our experience, demonstrating the benefit of performance engineering – in terms of better productivity for scientists – is needed to reach better acceptance. Therefore, we will create and publish success stories from different scientific fields. To achieve this goal, we will cooperate with scientists and attend to them throughout the project period. We will also gather existing and upcoming optimization studies and compute their respective cost-benefit using our cost-models. While there are already many studies available, finding the appropriate information is a daunting task. Therefore, we will investigate methods to increase searchability of and navigation between relevant performance data.
Benefit of (new) concepts
Together with domain scientists, we will estimate and evaluate the benefit of novel concepts for running their experiments based the individual scientific use cases. During the project runtime, we will approach users, discuss the benefit of alternative architectures, programming concepts and workflow systems, and model this benefit to estimate its value. For certain use cases, tools and concepts from Big Data analytics, in-situ visualization but also software engineering yield the potential to significantly improve the scientific outcome – and in the meantime increase data center efficiency. Also, compiler-assisted debugging tools to speed up the development process will be investigated. Our results will be monitored using the developed survey and published as a (success) story.
This service will disseminate knowledge, education, concepts and chances of performance engineering. Therefore, we will establish the virtual organization for the HHCC and publish all results and methodological concepts together with educational and supporting material (such as a knowledge base) there. In our experience, it is very difficult to find relevant information, therefore, we explore approaches to increase searchability of this information.
This service gives users the opportunity to elaborate on their HPC (and especially performance engineering) skills. We will establish HPC competence certificates (``HPC-Führerschein'') on various levels. Therefore, we will package online educational resources (OER) from existing material and extend it towards useful online courses. This fits very well into the Hamburg Open Online University and we will collaborate with this initiative to improve the pedagogical quality of the courses. Available courses in the region will be summarized and shown on the web page of the HHCC. Together with the certification process, this will help users to understand and improve their performance optimization skills.
This service provides pro-actively feedback to the users and gives them metrics to reflect about their performance – how well do their codes run. Thus, it identifies opportunities to improve the current situation. Firstly, we support deployment of an infrastructure to measure and assess resource utilization on the application level but also quantify costs. We then elaborate on tools that create semi-automatically feedback to the users about the efficiency of their runs. The collected information is periodically reviewed by our user support to identify performance issues and initiate conversation with the users to work upon them.
This service aids users that seek help explicitly to identify and mitigate performance issues. Since performance optimization of individual applications is time consuming, the focus of the support is to identify issues in preparation and configuration of of individual applications and workflows. Optimizing these low-hanging fruits also promises significant performance improvements and can be transferred easier between scientists.
In this service, a few joint efforts with scientists are implemented to evaluate and utilize new software concepts such as programming languages and tools but also understand the potential of novel architectures and processing systems. This is achieved by inferring knowledge from existing studies and by providing simplified performance and cost models for those alternatives. Together with scientists we establish pilot studies to support re-write of existing codes and document those results as success stories. While we conduct the co-development, we will periodically capture the fraction of work time spent in different tasks, e.g., design, programming and runtime. This will allow to understand the required programming time and combined with our cost analysis, the cost-efficiency of novel approaches can be made more visible. To allow other scientists to conduct similar studies, we will develop and publish a quality control method for conducting surveys that assess the benefit of systematic performance engineering.

Paul Smith spent the last year representing the University of Southern California on the golf course. He finished in the top 10 at the 2014 Pac-12 Conference championship meet. But Monday and today, he is playing against Southern California — the Southern California Golf Association that is.
There is no question of allegiance for the Turlock native. Representing the Northern California Golf Association, Smith wants to beat the SCGA in the two-day competition for the Roger Lapham Challenge Cup.
"North Cal, all the way," Smith said.
Smith shot a 1-over-par 73 on Monday helping the NCGA to a score of 362. The SCGA led after Day 1 at 359 on the Legends Course at the Omni La Costa Resort and Spa.
The Lapham Cup competition takes place during the first two days of the California Amateur Championship. Each association designates six golfers as representatives with the top five scores counting toward the team competition.
This is the 25th year the Lapham Challenge Cup has been integrated into the California Amateur. The NCGA and SCGA competed for the Lapham Cup annually since 1956, but it took place separate from the California Amateur until 1990.
"It's probably the right place to do it just the first couple days of stroke play," said Santa Cruz's Cory McElyea, an NCGA team member. "It's just a fun little part of it. It's cool to start the tournament off that way."
McElyea did not get asked to be part of the Lapham Cup team last year, and he won the 2013 California Amateur. This year, he predicts the winner will come from one of the 12 NCGA and SCGA representatives.
"I was a little bit under the radar last year," said McElyea, who shot an even-par 72 on Monday. "Both teams, it's probably the best players in the field."
The 12 Lapham Cup players are within four groups. The first of those groups tees off at 10:30 a.m. today on the Champions Course.
All the players are trying to advance to Wednesday's match-play. After 36 holes of stroke play, the top 32 in the field of 156 advance. Monday's low score was a 3-under 69 shared by six golfers, which included NCGA team member Matt Hansen and SCGA team member Beau Hossler.

New York, July 13, 2010 – The Committee to Protect Journalists condemns a Friday raid on the newsroom of the independent Uzbek-language broadcaster Osh TV in the southern Kyrgyz city of Osh. The Kyrgyz security service (known as SNB) also temporarily detained director Khalil Khudaiberdiyev in the raid on the station. Osh TV is currently off the air, the Uzbek service of the U.S. government-funded Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty reported.
Armed agents with the SNB confiscated computers, hard drives, electronic documents, and CDs of digital archives, the independent regional news website Ferghana reported. Security agents also detained and interrogated Khudaiberdiyev but released him the same day after confiscating his mobile phone.
According to Ferghana, during the raid, SNB agents did not show a search warrant. Khudaiberdiyev told Ferghana that the raid paralyzed the broadcaster, which had just recently managed to re-start its programming in the aftermath of the recent ethnic violence between Kyrgyzstan's Kyrgyz majority and Uzbek minority in the south of the country. According to Ferghana, the raid might be related to its coverage in May of an ethnic Uzbek rally in the neighboring city of Jalal-Abad, at which an Uzbek minority leader called for greater participation of Uzbeks in Kyrgyzstani politics. Osh TV was among several media outlets ordered to cease broadcasting in mid-June.
"We call on the Kyrgyz security service to immediately return all confiscated materials and equipment to Osh TV and provide a public explanation for their interrogation of Khalil Khudaiberdiyev," CPJ Europe and Central Asia Program Coordinator Nina Ognianova said. "In the aftermath of the bloody ethnic clashes in southern Kyrgyzstan, it is vital that Osh TV is allowed to broadcast without fear of reprisal."
Khudaiberdiyev told Ferghana that security agents did not produce an official document to explain his detention or interrogation, and he was not charged. Daniil Kislov, Ferghana's chief editor, who spoke to Khudaiberdiyev on Friday, told CPJ that interrogators did not ask the director any work-related questions and instead asked about the size of his family and the age of his children. Kislov told CPJ Khudaiberdiyev perceived the interrogation – which lasted for about two hours – as a tacit threat.

The rise of breast cancer in the Philippines has been alarming. Breast cancer is the most common cancer in the Philippines. It is estimated that 3 out of 100 Filipino women will get the disease before age 75. These scary statistics should serve as a wake-up call for us to acknowledge how serious this disease is, and that we should take active steps to prevent it. Here are simple steps to increasing our awareness about this dreaded disease, and how we can encourage others to be more aware as well.
Read up on the symptoms and prevention of breast cancer. Equip yourself with information to know what you can be up against. Breast cancer has different symptoms, and some do not have symptoms at all. Symptoms may include a usually painless lump or thickening in the breast., nipple discharge, a noticeable change in the size, contour or shape of the breast, nipple retraction or scaliness. Late signs of breast cancer may include pain, swelling of the breast, ulceration and orange peel-like spots on the skin of the breast.
Learn about your personal risk. Family history makes up for 7% of all breast cancers, becoming a two-fold risk for women with relatives who have had the disease. The National Cancer Institute offers a Breast Cancer Risk Assessment Tool designed to estimate a woman's risk of developing invasive breast cancer.
Perform a breast self-exam at least once a month. Breast self-exams are important because they help you become familiar with your breasts feel and look. If you spot any changes, you can seek the help of your doctor as a next step. There are three ways you can perform a breast self-exam: in the shower, in front of a mirror, and while lying down.
When in the shower, use the pads of your fingers and move around your breast in a circular motion. Movement should be from outside to the center. Do this on both breasts every month. Make sure to feel for any thickening or lump. If you spot any changes to your breasts, seek the help of your doctor.
When in front of a mirror, assess how your breasts look. Raise your arms high over your head, and look for any unusual contours, swelling, dimpling of the skin or changes in your nipples.
When lying down, place a pillow under your right shoulder. Place your right arm behind your head. With your left hand, move your finger tips around your right breast in small circular movements, covering the entire breast and the armpit. Squeeze your nipple to check for lumps and discharge. Repeat the exam on your left breast.
Take a clinical breast exam. A breast self-exam should be performed by every woman at home once a month. A clinical breast exam is performed by a professional trained to recognize any abnormalities that the patient may have missed. This could be your gynecologist or family physician. Clinical exams are a very important part of early detection.
Schedule a mammogram. A mammogram is an x-ray to examine the breast tissue for any abnormalities or suspicious areas. Some breast lumps cannot be felt, and so a mammogram can show a breast lump if it can't be felt. Lumps can appear as microcalcifications, or tiny groups of calcium. If abnormal cells are spotted, more tests may be recommended by the doctor. Mammograms are recommended for women 40 years and above, to be taken every 1 or 2 years. For women under 40 who have higher risk factors for breast cancer, they can ask their doctor if mammograms are advised and how soon they should get them.
Encourage friends and family to be more aware as well. Support each other with following through on your early detection plans. The sooner we start becoming actively conscious about breast cancer, the better we prevent ourselves against it.

Discussion in 'Transportation' started by GCM, Mar 10, 2012.
If so, were you happy with the service? If not, what was it that you didn't like?
We used them a few years ago in Orlando. No problems, high pressure sales, or any other tricks. We had a great experience and terrific deal at the time.
Log in or Sign up
to hide this advert.
We used them in November. Cheapest rental we could find. No problems
Can't speak for their service in Florida, but at Boston Logan their rental lot doubles as an airport parking facility, with valet parking and shuttle service included. We've parked there many times, and I've always been impressed by the professionalism and courtesy of the staff. The office serves both parking and car rental customers, and I've never seen anyone in line who looked unhappy with Thrifty.
We have used them the past 3 years at MCO and will be using them again in April.. I have found the best prices with them and excellent quality cars for rentals. If you decide to go with them then I suggest that you sign up for their Blue Chips program (Free) and you will not have to wait in a long line. (You will have a side line that they call first).
I haven't used them in several years and what I don't like is that they charge $10/day for additional driver. Unless you can find a corporate code that includes this you are out of luck.
They were alright. The agent, Iris, was nice enough, however, she was pushy with the toll transponder, which my mom ultimately gave into. Unless you plan to spend $34 of Sunpass tolls, it is a waste of money as we only spent around $4 in tolls roundtrip. Otherwise, they were fine and we wound up with a 2012 Kia Soul as our Compact, with not that many miles and it was in excellent condition and a good car. Go with Thrifty, however, don't take the toll transponder.
Thanks for all the info. I booked with them and the process seemed quite smooth. I am going to keep looking for better deals, but what I got was pretty amazing, so I'm happy.
Once again, thanks!
I think it all depends on the location you rent from. DW and I are going to DL this year. Renting a car from LAX and I know there are no additional charges for additional drivers there. At least that what it states on the Terms and Conditions. Best advice would be to call Thrifty and see if they will charge you for an additional driver. I know they will for sure if the driver is under the age of 25.
As far as answering the OP's question, I've never had a problem with them. Like someone else mentioned, if you join the Blue Chip program, you can bypass the line and go straight to pick up. Its free to join. I'm a Blue Chip member and I enjoy this little perk. No having to hassle with the agents at the counter trying to push extras on you. Just make sure to have your card with you. I've never had any problems with the cars. I've even gotten free upgrades because they didn't have the class of car I booked. Make sure and enter you flight information. This is how I've gotten the upgrades. I've had delayed flights in the past; but because I entered my flight information, they could see my flight was delayed and accommodated me nicely.
I agree with this. You can even get around Toll Roads if your GPS allows for it. Sometimes its just faster to pay the tolls though. If all your time will be spent getting around Disney, then no need for the toll transponder. Even when we went to KSC, we didn't pay that much in tolls.
Smart idea to keep checking back frequently and often. If the rates go down for the class of car you booked; you can modify your current confirmation to get the lower rate, without having to cancel and re-book. I've done this many times. As I mentioned in my prior post; DW and I are going to DL in August for a week. My rate started out at $225 for the week. So far I've gotten it down to $190 by checking back.
We use them 100% of the time. When we go on the road with our coach and were ever we stay we get a thrifty car. They transport us to and from the campground and their service IMO is 100%. Always find their rates great also.
Separate names with a comma.

Democrats open to single-payer health insurance, a party leader says
ABC News(WASHINGTON) — The Democratic Party will consider proposing a single-payer health insurance system, Sen. Chuck Schumer of New York said.
"We're going to look at broader things [for the nation's health care system.] Single-payer is one of them," Schumer said to ABC News Chief Anchor George Stephanopoulos on "This Week" Sunday.
The top Democrat in the Senate added that single-payer is among a number of health insurance options.
"Many things are on the table," Schumer said. "Medicare for people above 55 is on the table. A buy-in to Medicare is on the table. Buy-in to Medicaid is on the table."

It used to before until a few days ago and I'm wondering if I accidentally touched something by accident. At first I thought it was the site, but when I when on that same website with my girlfriends EVO it looked perfectly fine just like it does if I were on a computer. Anyone know how to fix this? Now, for QIK. I tried setting up an account and it said "this # already exists" and I never set one up before nor have I used it. My girlfriend set hers up on her phone fine. Anyway, I hope you guys can help me. Should I do the new update on my phone?

Ask any entrepreneur who their idol is and they'll likely say Elon Musk. Ask any scientist who they look up to and again, they'd probably say Elon Musk.
How is it possible that Elon Musk could build four multi-billion companies by his mid-40s and become an expert in four separate fields (software, energy, transportation and aerospace)?
When people refer to Elon Musk's success, they point to his worth ethic (apparently he works 85-hour weeks), his ability to set amazing visions for the future and his incredible resilience. But there are many people like this. What is it really that separates Elon Musk from the rest?
Conventional wisdom says that to be an expert at something, we need to focus on one thing. The smaller that thing is, the better chance you'll have.
But Elon Musk breaks the rule. His expertise ranges from artificial intelligence to solar power to rocket science, engineering and physics.
Clearly, Elon Musk is an "expert-generalist", a term used to define people who understand deeper principles that can be applied to many different fields.
The Surprising Benefits of Being a "Jack of All Trades"
Based on Elon Musk's success, perhaps we all should be learning wisdom from multiple subject areas, while having a core set of principles that keeps us grounded across all fields. Here's why:
It's generally said that if you're a "'jack of all trades", then you're a master of nothing. However, Elon Musk shows that this is wrong.
Learning across multiple fields clearly gives you a knowledge advantage. Why? Because most people just focus on one field. If you're a biologist, you just read biology publications. If you're an entrepreneur, you're probably only reading entrepreneur magazines.
Despite this, very few people actually learn beyond their industry. Any new field of learning gives enormous opportunity to make connections and combinations. You've all heard the famous quote from Steve Jobs:
"Creativity is just connecting things. When you ask creative people how they did something, they feel a little guilty because they didn't really do it, they just saw something."
Elon Musk's learning transfer
But his unique brilliance isn't just because he takes in information from different subject areas. It's the way he does it.
Few people are aware of this, but studying Elon Musk's life and comments in the media give us a certain glimpse into his super power of "learning transfer". According to his brother, Elon Musk would read 2 whole books every single day!
This reading spanned various topics from philosophy, science, religion, programming and biographies of scientists and entrepreneurs.
However, this is where Elon Musk shines. He says it's crucial to deconstruct knowledge into fundamental principles. This enables us to easily learn new skills and transfer them to different fields. He gave us a glimpse of this wisdom on Reddit:
"It is important to view knowledge as sort of a semantic tree — make sure you understand the fundamental principles, i.e. the trunk and big branches, before you get into the leaves/details or there is nothing for them to hang onto."
Elon Musk is certainly onto something. Research suggests that turning your knowledge into deeper principles facilitates learning transfer.
So, how do we come up with these principles? When we learn something new, we shouldn't just take one approach. We should explore different approaches, deconstruct each one and then compare them. This will help us find the underlying the principles.
But it doesn't stop there. In order to be as smart as Elon Musk, we need to transfer our knowledge to new fields. This can be easily forgotten as you go about your day.
UCLA professor of psychology, Keith Holyoak, says that the best way to do this is to constantly ask yourself "What does this remind me of?" and "Why does it remind me of it"? By constantly looking in your environment and any knowledge your reading and asking yourself these two questions, you build the muscles in your brain to make connections across different areas.
All of us can benefit from becoming a jack of all trades
The bottom line is: We ALL can gain from becoming knowledgeable in different fields.
In fact, legendary expert-generalist Buckminster Fuller says this is a shift in thinking we all need to consider adopting:
"We are in an age that assumes that the narrowing trends of specialization to be logical, natural, and desirable… In the meantime, humanity has been deprived of comprehensive understanding. Specialization has bred feelings of isolation, futility, and confusion in individuals. It has also resulted in the individual's leaving responsibility for thinking and social action to others. Specialization breeds biases that ultimately aggregate as international and ideological discord, which in turn leads to war."

Serpent of the Nile : Women and Dance in the Arab World Paperback
by Wendy Buonaventura
Newly updated and lavishly illustrated, this classic celebration of female dancers of the Arab world is available in an appealing new format. "Serpent of the Nile" traces the origins of this ancient art, which survived in the face of commercialism, religious disapproval and changing times.
Wendy Buonaventura demonstrates how Arabic dance came to be influenced by Western ideas about art and entertainment.
But the influence was two-way. In the heyday of Orientalism, Arabic dance captured the imagination of writers and artists such as Flaubert, David Roberts and Jean-Leon Gerome, and imitators Colette and Mata Hari.
Often based on common fantasies about Middle-Eastern women, this obsession produced evocative images and inspired fashion, theatre and popular entertainment.

Originally formed as a punk band (Belinda Carlisle was in the Germs for a minute!) in the late '70s, the LA foursome went ultra-pop and became the first all-female band (who played their own instruments and wrote their own songs) to top the Billboard charts when Beauty and the Beat went triple fucking platinum! Because it's a fucking amazing album! Sorry for all the swears, but the Go-Go's made so many catchy new-wavey hits of pop perfection that I can't think of anything more fun than screaming along to "How Much More" with some fancy wine in my hand.

pre tag attributes getting stripped
I've got two hosted WordPress blogs, one is my individual blog and another multi-user site. Both have versions of Syntax Highlighter plugin installed wich require the use of pre tags using class="brush[language]". The problem is that the multi-user site I'm a part of strips off the attributes of the pre tags, so the plugin isn't enabled. If I edit the source in the HTML view, it stops the attributes I add as soon as I update the site. It also strips when I post from Live Writer. My other site works fine, so I'm assuming it's some sort of config issue or plugin conflict. Any advice on how to resolve this?

"Can't HEAR You Knocking" Video
Chet Helms (by Lee Houskeeper / San Francisco Stories)
San Francisco Impresario Chet Helms who was known at the "Father of the Summer of Love" and was the manager & founder of "Big Brother & the Holding Company" with Janis Joplin as well as the first to produce psychedelic light show concerts at San Francisco's Fillmore Auditorium then later at his own Avalon Ballrooms passed away at 12:35 AM, Saturday, June 25th at San Francisco's Pacific Medical Center from complications due to a stroke Helms suffered on Tuesday, June 21st. Helms was surrounded by his brother John Helms and six close friends at the time of his death.
No discussion involving the Sixties, the source of the "San Francisco sound" or the "Summer of Love" can take place without mentioning Chet Helms, a front-line contributor to the people, ideas and events surrounding the most dynamic decade in American history.
Chet Helms and his production company, the Family Dog, turned small get-togethers of local musicians and artists into a scene that eventually produced the great, legendary gatherings of the Summer of Love. Rock promoter Bill Graham first turned to Chet Helms and his well-connected family of artists and audiences in San Francisco to build his own promotional empire, well after the local "scene" had been established and nurtured in coffee houses all over the city.
Helms was born in Santa Maria, California, in 1942, and spent most of his youth in Texas and Missouri. While attending the University of Texas in Austin, he was drawn to the civil rights movement bubbling under in the South. A stepchild from a mixed-race marriage, Helms became actively engaged in organizing benefits for non-profit civil and human rights groups, all the while learning and using the tools of the trade he would later apply to the world of rock concert promotion.
Helms moved from Austin to San Francisco for the first time in the summer of 1962. He returned to Austin briefly in 1963 to beckon then-unknown folksinger Janis Joplin to hitch-hike back with him, telling her he would help promote her career in San Francisco.
In the basement of 1090 Page Street at the center of the colorful Haight-Ashbury neighborhood, Helms organized informal jam sessions, out of which the band Big Brother and the Holding Company was formed. He later added Joplin as the group's lead singer and managed the band through its formative years.
Through his relationships with such celebrated figures as Ken Kesey and The Grateful Dead, Helms found himself at the center of it all, a willing coordinator of the era's new interpretation of music and youth culture. By February 1966, Helms started producing shows for many bands under the name Family Dog Productions at the Fillmore Auditorium, on alternating weekends with Bill Graham Presents. By April, Helms secured permits to run his own dance hall, The Avalon Ballroom on Sutter Street.
For three years, Helms and the Family Dog hosted some of the most influential events in San Francisco rock history, including free events in Golden Gate Park in 1966 and during what has now become known as the "Summer of Love" in 1967. From The Doors to Bo Diddley, Helms created a unique atmosphere at the Avalon which encouraged immersive experiences among the artists and audience. Psychedelic light shows have evolved into what we now know as "multi-media." And the trademark posters have skyrocketed in value over the years in the rock memorabilia market. It was a formula duplicated by rock promoters all over the country. Helms also opened up Family Dog dance halls in Denver and Portland before deciding in 1969 to run his operations out of one ballroom in San Francisco, on the Great Highway next to Playland-at-the-Beach.
By the end of 1970, the small local scene Helms helped create had grown into a cultural phenomenon exploited globally by a wide variety of entrepreneurs, for better or for worse. He decided to take a break, and would not return to concert promoting until 1978, when Family Dog produced the 1st Annual Tribal Stomp at the Greek Theatre in Berkeley.
After producing another Tribal Stomp in 1979 at the Monterey Fairgrounds - highlighted by the first-ever California appearance of The Clash - Helms retreated from active promotion. He came out of retirement briefly in October 1997 to produce the 30th Anniversary Celebration of the Summer of Love in Golden Gate Park, where 60,000 fans gathered for a day of free music, with no arrests and no reports of incidents.
Since 1980, Helms has operated Atelier Dore, Inc., an art gallery in San Francisco specializing in American and European art from 1850 to 1950.
