Don't be rude.
Well, sometimes, that's easier said than done. Everyday behaviors that seem normal to us might come across poorly to others. It's important to check back with yourself every once in a while, to ensure that you're not rubbing people the wrong way.
Business Insider spoke with business communications expert, speaker, and "The Communication Clinic: 99 Proven Cures for the Most Common Business Mistakes" author Barbara Pachter. She shared a handful of etiquette red flags that make you look like you've forgotten — or never learned — your manners.
Here are some common behaviors to avoid, lest you come across as rude:

Flying Object is a nonprofit art and publishing organization located in an old fire station in Hadley, Massachusetts. This Flying Object interview series will serve to document some of the writers, artists and performers that pass through—as well as activity in our own community.
One person's rat brain is another's treasure. At the Reanimation Library's temporary branch at Flying Object, I flip through glossy x-rays of rat brains, charts of electrocardiogram wavelengths, of bird houses, of sea canyons. In the right hands, an image is never antiquated, though the mode of appreciation changes. I don't pick up Differential Diagnosis of the Electrocardiogram to learn. The author's original intent has come and gone. Instead, I watch a thought morph across time, suspended between the false poles of aesthetics and information, in a fluid of anthropological disconnect.
Some could view Andrew Beccone's Reanimation Library as a collection of mid-20th century failure, post-war America slipping on a banana peel for the 21st century's amusement, utopian ambition reduced to point-and-laugh novelty. In their time, these books mounted earnest attempts to solve the problems of the modern world: to catalog and understand experience from the clouds to the bedroom to the sea floor, to teach us who we are. And they failed, or were dismissed as quackery, or disproved. Science writes over itself.
So what to do with this discarded material? Beccone's collection emerges from this dust, this atomic fallout. Over the course of 12 years, he has assembled an island of misfit toys, books from these post-war years to be appreciated for their images, their ambitious titles. He does not base selection on assigning cultural worth, some arbitrary canon based on "importance" or "relevance." His library champions a contrary definition of timelessness.
And from the collection's middle finger to "relevance" comes its charm and vitality. Edward Tufte, hero to Beccone and pioneer of data visualization, says, "The world is complex, dynamic, multidimensional; paper is static, flat. How are we to represent the rich visual world of experience and measurement on mere flatland?" Beccone collects these flat attempts, an undertaking arguably as preposterous as the utopian dreams of modernism. His books are as valiant as they are absurd, profound as they are crude, foolish and fascinating. —Patrick Gaughan
Patrick Gaughan: You say you chose the books mostly for their visual content: photographs, illustrations, diagrams. From my brief experience, the collection seems to lean towards the sciences, instructional material, outmoded theory. What genres do you find yourself including in the Library?

Video: Final project for engineering students means breaking bridges
Professor Sam Clemence is putting plenty of faith in his students. As part of the final project for his ECS 101 class, Clemence walks, very slowly, on top of their final projects. He hopes they don't break. That's because these are bridges constructed by students who hope the spans will support the weight of Clemence and one other student. The interaction between students, their teacher, and an important project is hard to capture in words. This video fills in the blanks.

National Australia Bank (NAB) said Friday it was in talks to sell an investment technology arm of AXA Asia Pacific if it gets approval to buy the firm, in a bid to satisfy Australian regulators.
NAB said it was discussing the move with AXA, the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission (ACCC) and "other interested third parties" as it tries to win approval for its 13.29 billion dollar (11.59 billion US) buyout.
The ACCC rejected NAB's bid for AXA in April, citing concerns about a lack of competition between retail investment platforms.
"NAB is considering the possible divestment of the North Wealth.net investment platform business of AXA APH," NAB said in a statement to the Australian Stock Exchange.
"However, at this stage there is no assurance that such a possible divestment will occur or that it will address the concerns raised by the ACCC," it added.
Analysts say NAB and AXA Asia Pacific's platforms, excluding North, already account for more than 25 percent of the market.
North is a wealth management technology linking financial planners and superannuation, pension or ordinary investors with more than 130 products, with initial capital and contributions guaranteed against market volatility.
AXA Asia Pacific and its French parent AXA SA this week agreed to give NAB until July 15 to address the regulator's concerns.
Under the bid AXA SA, the holding company for the AXA Group, would take its subsidiary's Asian arm while NAB would control its Australian and New Zealand businesses.
If the proposal goes ahead it would be the largest ever takeover in Australia's financial services sector, and would see NAB become one of Australia and New Zealand's leading wealth management groups.

Having a home ground in Denver, Colorado The Denver Broncos is a professional football team. The Broncos is presently the affiliate of American Football Conference (AFC). The team made its debut in 1960 as a constituent of American Football League; it afterwards collaborated with National Football League as both organizations merged together. This gave team an immense push thus it progressed by leaps and bounds. Winner of six AFC championships and two Super Bowls, Broncos play their games at INVESCO Field. The Denver Broncos became the first ever AFL team to win against Boston Patriots. It also pinned down the renowned NFL team Detroit Lions, thus gaining the prestige of the foremost AFL team to leave behind an NFL team.
Buy Denver Broncos vs San Diego Chargers Tickets
After thirteen years of its conception, Denver's won their first season in 1973. In 1972, the team revamped itself thus hiring John Ralston as their Head Coach. In the following year, Ralston was rated as AFC Coach of the Year after foreseeing the team's immaculate performance. Finally after observing much negation, Ralston had to forego his leadership after 1976 season. Red Miller joined the team with much promises and also took the team to playoffs in 1977 although Denver's faced a defeat by Dallas Cowboys. The team went through several ups and downs in the following years with finally gaining the tribute of the most dominating teams of the year 1996. John Elway the prized quarterback player of Denver Broncos earned the team the title of Super Bowl Most Valuable Player Award thus encouraging Denver players to reach Super Bowl six times while succeeding it in 1997-1998 seasons too. Although Elway retired in 1998, but the fans still expect Elway like performance in the quarterback believing the fact that no player can reach the level set by him.
Denver Broncos had a divisive win in 2008 against their well-charged rival San Diego Chargers although they progressed a bit by the mid season. In the 2008 season finale Broncos and Chargers came face to face each other at San Diego's Qualcomm Stadium where Chargers defeated Broncos and became the first NFL team to step in the final quarter of a regular season. The 2010 season started off with injuries to various players of the tem thus giving a blow to the performance of Denver Broncos.
The famous rivals to Denver Broncos, San Diego Chargers also started off in 1960. Categorized as the associate of American Football League, the Chargers proved their worth in the league in the following years. Although now based in San Diego, California, the team made their start from Los Angeles. Qualcomm Stadium is the arena for Chargers home games. Chargers reached AFL playoffs five times after winning the AFL title in 1963. Sid Gillman made his name as the only coach for ten years. 2003 proved to be the worst year for Chargers as they produced the worst record long with three other teams in the NFL season.
San Diego Chargers were amongst the eight teams to be classified as the original American Football League teams. The other teams include Denver Broncos, Oakland Raiders, The Boston Patriots, The Buffalo Bills, Dallas Texans, The Houston Oilers and New York Oilers. In 1963 AFL Championship became the marked symbol of Chargers as the team left the Boston Patriots way behind. Being the epitome of National Football League since 1970, San Diego Chargers appeared in 12 playoffs and made to Super Bowl XXIX by the end of 1994 season.
With exceptions to the color, the Chargers have been using the same arc-shaped logo with lightning bolt since its conception in 1960. Keeping the half century testimony, the Chargers made praise worthy record by winning 375 matches, although 11 were tied and 370 were lost too.
With such enlightened careers, the well-famed teams, Denver Broncos and San Diego Chargers are facing each other once again for a blown-out experience. Witness the vigor and zeal in both the teams keeping your eyes fixed at the renowned players while they exhibit their best before their fans. With the arena echoing to the love of its fans, Denver Broncos VS San Diego Chargers is once again taking away your heart beats. Don't miss this exquisite opportunity to be the part of it!

The National Art Museum
I was very happy to visit the museum and BK took me there. The day was hot and humid out so going inside a museum was a good idea.
I made this little video to show my visit to the museum.
I was really surprised at the size of this place, because I really didn't expect it to be so big. Also its surroundings were around this lush green preserve, so it certainly was a spectacle. I think though that they use a good portion of the building for research.
Anyways, we didn't see everything because there was a lot to see and for some reason my joints were killing me.
But it certainly was refreshing to see Korean and other Asian artworks in their homeland. Although I would comment that the curators of the museum have issues with lighting effects. I know that most objects require dim light so to preserve the material. Yet, in general most of the works were so poorly lit it was hard to see them properly. I feel that at the Asian Art Museum in San Francisco, the lighting went better over there.
Ah well...I hope to get out to an modern art museum next time!

THANX Joy....the museum structure itself is v. impressive!ReplyDelete
Please show us more......the Vietnamese pieces are v. interesting, in general we don't see much art from some Asian cultures other than in major US museums.

Watch you English Joy Joy!ReplyDelete
Remember you're an "example", little lives are DEPENDING on you!
thank u~ I will try to not be so sloppy with my English~ReplyDelete
The real architectural pity of the place is that they very carefully placed the covered plaza in the middle of the two exhibit halls to frame a view of Namsan . . . a view that was promptly obliterated by a new driving range.ReplyDelete
I especially hope you enjoyed the Vietnamese exhibit . . . I helped with the translation on some of the boards^^ I also did some work on the Sinan Seabed wreck, but I think that the pieces I translated were rotated out of the exhibit . . .
Wow! I'm an Art History major too. But I'm focused on 19th & 20th century art. I love art and I'm excited to see some asian art in ASIA!! OMG. I was so jealous of my brother when he caught the Smithsonian's Chinese and Islamic exhibit when he was picked to go to the Holocaust Museum. I was devastated.ReplyDelete

Brazilian team pose for photo in front of doomed jet which crashed killing 76
* Rescuers recovering bodies on site * Brazil's Chapecoense football team among those on board * Poor weather leaves crash site accessible only by road
This is the Brazilian football team posing together for the last time in front of their charter plane which crashed in Colombia overnight.
Police have confirmed that 76 people were killed in the crash.
A Reuters photographer at the scene said dozens of bodies were laid out and covered with sheets around the wreckage as some 30 rescuers, police and military personnel searched the crash site of the plane that had had 81 people aboard.
He said the BAe 146 charter aircraft had split in two with only the nose and wings recognizable and the tail end completely destroyed in the crash on Monday night.
The flight was coming in to land in the city of Medellin when the incident happened, according to the country's civil aviation association.
The jet suffered power failures and officials said it crashed into a mountain in the Antioquia Department.

Pidan todos a Dios que todos hallan sobrevivido... pic.twitter.com/5btJhoz7Ib
Rescuers are moving survivors from the crash site, the aviation body added.
The chartered plane, flying from Bolivia, was carrying members of the Chapocoense football team, airport officials said.
The Brazil Serie A side were scheduled to play in the Copa Sudamerica finals against Atletico National in Medellin on Wednesday.
A number of journalists were also believed to be on board the flight.
Heartbreaking images have since emerged online showing the team members posing in front of the plane.
Separate images show two footballers, Defender Alan Ruschel and goalkeeper Danilo Padilha, posing for selfies during the journey from Brazil with Ruschel, 27, telling fans: 'We're coming Colombia.'
Both Ruschel and Danilo were pulled alive from the wreckage but Danilo later died in hospital. Goalkeeper Jacson Follmann as well as passengers Rafael Correa Gobbato and Ximena Suarez survived the crash, officials said.
The Jose Maria Cordova de Rionegro airport, which serves Medellin, said on its Twitter account."Confirmed, the aircraft license number CP2933 was carrying the team @ChapecoenseReal. Apparently there are survivors."
The city's mayor Federico Gutierrez told Blu Radio: "It's a tragedy of huge proportions."
He said ambulances and rescuers were on their way. It is not clear what caused the crash.

However airport authorities said poor weather conditions made the crash site accessible only by road.
The aircraft was reported missing as of 10 pm on Monday night, when officials at the José María Córdova International Airport in Rionegro waited for the plane to arrive at the air terminal.
According to the Emergency Operating Committee and Airport Management, the aircraft stated that it had electrical faults.
The plane had departed at 6:18pm this Monday (Bolivia time) from the city of Santa Cruz.
"The plane asked for priority to land in Rionegro, it was given, but then the contact was lost," said Alfredo Bocanegra, director of Aerocivil, told La Colombiana newspaper.
A video published on the football team's Facebook page showed players readying for the flight earlier on Monday in Sao Paulo's Guarulhos international airport.
The team, from the small city of Chapeco, joined Brazil's first division in 2014 for the first time since the 1970s and made it to the Copa Sudamericana finals last week by defeating Argentina's legendary San Lorenzo squad.
The crash evoked memories of Munich air disaster in 1958, which killed 23 people, including eight Manchester United players, journalists and travelling officials.
World governing body FIFA said on Twitter its "thoughts were with the victims, their families, fans of Chapecoense and media organisations in Brazil on this tragic day".
Brazilian President Michel Temer expressed his grief: "I express my solidarity in this sad hour during which tragedy has beset dozens of Brazilian families," he said, adding that Brazil's foreign ministry and Air Force were working to assist the relatives.
"The government will do all it can to alleviate the pain of the friends and family of sport and national journalism."
Chapecoense qualified for the biggest game in their history after overcoming Argentine club San Lorenzo in the semi-final on away goals following a 1-1 draw in Buenos Aires and a 0-0 draw at home.
They were very much the underdogs for the match against a club going for a rare double after winning the Copa Libertadores in July.
Chapecoense were the 21st biggest club in Brazil in terms of revenue, bringing in 46 million reais ($13.5 million) in 2015, according to an annual rich list compiled by Brazilian bank Itau BBA.
The club has built its success on a frugal spending policy that eschewed big money signings and instead concentrated on blending young talent and experienced journeymen.
Their best-known player was Cleber Santana, a midfielder whose best years were spent in Spain with Atletico Madrid and Mallorca. Coach Caio Junior was also experienced, having managed at some of Brazil's biggest clubs, Botafogo, Flamengo and Palmeiras among them
The crash prompted an outpouring of solidarity and grief on social media from the footballing community, with Brazilian top flight teams Flamengo and Santos tweeting messages of support.
Porto goalkeeper Iker Casillas tweeted: "My condolences for the plane accident that carried @ChapecoenseReal. Tough moment for football. Good luck and stay strong!"
The South American football federation has suspended all games and other activities.
The federation, CONMEBOL, said its president, Alejandro Dominguez, was on his way to Medellin, near the crash site.
"All federation activities are suspended until further notice," it added in a statement on its website. Chapecoense had been due to face Atletico Nacional of Medellin in the first leg of Wednesday's Sudamericana final.

Tyler Clementi: Tyler Clementi Bullying Trial
February 22, 2012 by staff
Tyler Clementi: Tyler Clementi Bullying Trial, The parents of Tyler Clementi, a Rutgers student who killed himself after his roommate allegedly used a webcam to spy on his intimate encounter with another man, are speaking out.
Jury selection begins Tuesday in a New Brunswick, N.J., courtroom for the trial of Dahrun Ravi, the Rutgers University student who with a silent flip of his laptop webcam secretly watched his roommate in a moment of gay intimacy, and unwittingly set in motion a series of events that would make him a national symbol of cyber-bullying.
The trial, which will be broadcast live across the country and as far away as India, will culminate a criminal prosecution that many believe would never have happened if not for the fact that Tyler Clementi, Ravi's gay roommate, jumped to his death from the George Washington Bridge on Sept. 22, 2010 — just three days after Ravi electronically captured him kissing a man in his dorm room.
While authorities were only beginning their investigation, the media and public readily connected the dots, and Clementi's death struck a growing anti-bullying nerve in America and became a blog-driven lightening rod for outrage in the gay community.

School Based Clinic Public Meetings
This week the Round Lake Area D116 School Board hosted two informational meetings at the Round Lake Beach Cultural & Civic center. Included at the meeting were several entities who played a part in getting the proposed School-Based Clinic beyond Phase One, which included obtaining a $500,000 grant to build a structure that would then be operated by a private entity on school property. The building would be owned by the school (taxpayers) so even if the SBC failed to exist down the road, the space could be used for other things.
All along I was under the assumption, based on other meetings that I have attended, that the facility would be free-standing and probably built somewhere out behind the school. I was surprised to see the display that now shows that the 1500 S.F. structure will be right up front to the right of the main entrance. With three (and a possible fourth) examination rooms and seating for 16 in the waiting room, it would appear as though they are expecting quite a return on their investment by way of insurance claims submitted on behalf of the students who will be frequenting it. Even though the Board has been notified of the grant money, there are several steps that need to be met before it becomes a reality. If you are a parent, concerned about contraceptives and other procedures being performed, or referred out, as it is related to your child, you will want to attend meetings and voice your concerns as others have. A good video to watch is the one currently being featured in the right hand column where Brenda Bannor tells a concerned parent that "No, parents are not usually notified".
Below is just a short 2-minute video showing several of the charts and floor plans that were on display. Since they scroll by fairly fast, you will need to stop and start the video in order to read what they each say. You also have the option of watching it "Full Screen" by simply clicking on the tab in the lower right corner of the video.

Is dehydration dangerous? Yes, very dangerous. We all know that we can't live without water. There is more to know. Dehydration causes several other problems. It can cause headaches and fatigue; it can affect your kidneys, skin and digestion too. And yes, it can make you obese too!
Why Moving Is Better Than Dieting
If you have the habit of drinking water only when you feel thirsty, then it is high time you hydrate your system well before your body gets affected.
How Men Can Solve Their Problems Lifting Heavy
In fact, drink a bottle of water soon after waking up. Also, reduce your soda consumption as your body loses its water content. Both sodas and coffee may deprive your body of water.
Healthy Alternatives To Caffeine
Now, read on to know how dehydration affects your body.
Dehydration causes weakness which might make you eat heavily for energy levels. But in fact, when you are thirsty, you need to drink water.
When there isn't much water, the waste materials in your intestines tend to move pretty slow. This may lead to constipation too.
Do you know that your body tends to produce higher levels of cholesterol when dehydrated? Well, it does so to prevent the loss of water in the body.
It Can Cause Fatigue
Your body needs water to carry on with its activities. When your system lacks enough water, certain metabolic activities slow down and this may make you feel tired. So, water is also a source of energy.
Your BP Increases
Do you know why your blood pressure goes high when you are dehydrated? Well, your blood may get a bit thicker due to insufficient water levels. This may affect its flow and this increases its pressure.
Your Skin Suffers
When your body lacks enough water, it fails to flush out toxins and this may affect your skin. Various disorders like dermatitis and premature wrinkles may occur.
How Kidneys Get Affected
When waste products get accumulated in your kidneys, due to dehydration, it may cause kidney infection. Your kidneys need water to push the waste out.
Even your joints need water to function well as parts of the cartilage are predominantly water. Your joints may become weaker without water.
Both acid reflux and ulcers can occur when your body lacks certain minerals and even water. Water is very important for your digestive system.

After a dreadful 0-3-1 West Coast trip this past week, the Tampa Bay Lightning will look to regain some early-season momentum as the team opens up a very important three-game homestand. On Monday night, the Lightning will face off against the New York Rangers. They will take on the Philadelphia Flyers on Wednesday, and the Pittsburgh Penguins on Friday.
As injuries begin to pile up for the Lightning, the team announced the call-up of prospects Nikita Kucherov and Dmitry Korobov.
Although the Lightning have dropped down to third place in the Atlantic Division at a record of 14-8-1, the team still only sits three points behind the Boston Bruins for first place. As the Lightning look to pick up some vital points against quality teams this week, they must get back the solid goaltending and defense from very early on in the season.
Goalie Ben Bishop, although better in his last start, must get back to normal and provide stability for a Lightning team that currently lacks offensive scoring. Injuries to scorers such as Steven Stamkos, Tom Pyatt and now Ryan Malone have been really difficult for the Lightning to overcome so far this season.
It will also be important for the Lightning to receive scoring from its veterans in Martin St. Louis and Teddy Purcell. For the Lightning to remain relevant in a very competitive Atlantic Division and Eastern Conference playoff race, a homestand like this will be a perfect opportunity to rack up some important extra points. The Lightning have played better hockey this year, and will look for continued success on home ice.

Police threatened to arrest two journalists based in Srinagar, capital of the Indian state of Jammu and Kashmir, on July 10, 2009, for reporting that the family of a missing youth, Asrar Mushtaq Dar, feared he may have "disappeared" in police custody, according to a statement issued by the Kashmir Press Bureau. Dar was later found to have been murdered in a personal dispute with a friend, according to local news reports.
Police called and threatened NDTV's Srinagar correspondent Fayaz Bukhari and CNS news agency reporter Rasheed Rahi, the bureau said in the statement. One of the callers was allegedly Jammu and Kashmir Director General of Police Kuldeep Khoda.
Local journalists said Rahi was also harassed by authorities from the Khothibagh police station in Srinagar, and that a police complaint was lodged against him for his reporting on an earlier incident that involved the rape and murder of two young women in Shopian that led to violent protests in the area.

It was the best of times and the worst of times for Hollywood before the war. The box office was booming, and the studios' control of talent and distribution was as airtight as could be hoped. But the industry's relationship with Washington was decidedly uneasy - hearings and investigations into allegations of corruption and racketeering were multiplying, and hanging in the air was the insinuation that the business was too foreign, too Jewish, too "un-American" in its values and causes. Could an industry this powerful in shaping America's mind-set really be left in the hands of this crew? Following Pearl Harbor, Hollywood had the chance to prove its critics wrong and did so with vigor, turning its talents and its business over to the war effort to an unprecedented extent.
No industry professionals played a bigger role in the war than America's most legendary directors: Ford, Wyler, Huston, Capra, and Stevens. Between them they were on the scene of almost every major moment of America's war, and in every branch of service - army, navy, and air force; Atlantic and Pacific; from Midway to North Africa; from Normandy to the fall of Paris and the liberation of the Nazi death camps; to the shaping of the message out of Washington, D.C.
As it did for so many others, World War II divided the lives of these men into before and after, to an extent that has not been adequately understood. In a larger sense - even less well understood - the war divided the history of Hollywood into before and after as well. Harris reckons with that transformation on a human level - through five unforgettable lives - and on the level of the industry and the country as a whole. Like these five men, Hollywood too, and indeed all of America, came back from the war having grown up more than a little.

"Had a lot of fun with this book!"
Isn't the electronic world wonderful. I am 68 years old. Born in 1946, I grew up in the aftermath of WW II in a small rural community. Almost every one of the males over the age of 30 had participated in the war - yet they did not talk a lot about it or if they did discuss it the conversation was very superficial. I also did not have exposure to the prewar or even war movies produced by these five directors. Thus I enjoyed the opportunity to hear their stories and at the same time to view the documentaries produced for the war departments (You Tube) and the movies (YouTube or purchased/rented online), both before, during and after the war. I spent probably 75 hours over a several month period working my way through the book and the movies. It was a most enjoyable experience. I was particularly struck by the psychologic damage caused by war (highlighted in the unreleased Wilder film), most recently highlighted by the long-term studies of Vietnam veterans. I also enjoyed watching the color movies recently released from George Steven's personal collection (History Channel 2 over Memorial and D-day anniversary), but the impact on his health, both psychologic and physical, as he collected these images was sad.This was a good read, but to appreciate it fully you will have to do some work.
There were many. I did not realize John Ford was at the Battle of Midway.
Billy Wilder. What a story.
"Master Movie Makers And World War 2"
I very much enjoyed the bios of 5 of the most famous movie directors America produced. The vignettes about some of my favorite movies as well as period stars was tantalizing. Harris tells fascinating stories about WW2 through the lives of these extraordinary men. I really liked this book. The narrator was excellent as well.
"Detailed and well researched, but a bit much"
I wanted to REALLY like this book--a historical look at Hollywood's role in WWII, specifically with directors sent into the European and Pacific theatres to film the action for propaganda and training films. I enjoy this genre of writing as well as stories of Hollywood and WWII, so this book should have been perfect. In the end, it was just too much. It was so well researched and detailed that for this listener/reader I was overwhelmed with the detail and lost the larger story of how Hollywood directors supported the war. I think I would have enjoyed an abridged version of this book. The details of 20 hours of listening was a turn off.
"Great stuff for the movie/history buff"
If you like movies you'll like this book. Great discussions of how these various directors worked in the field or in Washington during the runup to WWII and during the war itself.
"Nice account of a few directors' war experiences"
I would listen to this again only because I know I missed some information. I usually pick it up the second time around.
The liberation of the Nazi death camps
Accents of the subjects who were not known to be foreign born because they took Anglo sounding names.
The title.
"Hollywood Goes to war"
The book is well researched, but poorly organized, with too much detail. I had trouble getting through it. Would have no interest in a second listen. Narrator does an adequate job.
"Exceptional and Entertaining"
The story of five famous directors -- Frank Capra, George Stevens, John Huston, William Wyler, and John Ford -- and their service during World War II.
"Surprisingly Boring"
The book contains a lot of interest facts. However by choosing to follow 5 directors simultaneously, the story telling felt fragmented. I had trouble keeping track of which director did what, when. Also since each director experienced different series of failure and success at different times and took away different lessons from the war, the story did not built up to any sense of suspense. Felt more like a text book than most historical non-fiction I read. A set of interesting facts presented by a good narrator, but oddly boring for the subject matter: Hollywood and WWII.
"Not what I expected but still good"
This is a book principally about five directors, what they did before the war, during the war and after the war. It is not, except in that context, a book about the war or the filming of war action. That said, it was very interesting and well written. It succeeded in getting me interested in a topic that I may not have otherwise read about.
"Hollywood, History, and Patriots"
If you're intrigued by either Hollywood or World War II then you have found what you're looking for in "Five Came Back". At great sacrifice these five directors put both their professional and personal lives on hold to chronicle the allied forces efforts to defeat the nazis. It almost felt like reading fiction by its stark contrast to our current self obsessed culture of "me".
Very seldom do I like a narrator so much that I look through his other works for something of interest, but I liked Andrew Garman so much I put "Paper" on my wishlist.
Happy listening!!!

Madras, OR
Sponsored Topics
Madras ( /mædrəs/ mad-res) is a city in Jefferson County, Oregon, United States. Originally called The Basin after the circular valley the city is located in, it is unclear as to whether Madras was named in 1903 for the cotton fabric called "Madras" that originated in the Madras (now Chennai) area in India, or from the city of Chennai, then known as "Madras". The population was 5,078 at the 2000 census, with an estimated population of 6,640 in 2008. It is the county seat of Jefferson County.
Madras was incorporated as a city in 1911. An Army Air Corps base was built nearby during World War II. This airfield now serves as City-County Airport. Homesteads about 5 miles (8.0 km) north of the city on Agency Plains were based on dryland wheat.
According to the United States Census Bureau, the city has a total area of 2.2 square miles (5.6 km²), all of it land.

Hey all...sorry I have been MIA. So, success! I have fixed my PC!
So everyone is on the same page: I was getting the Bootmgr error on startup. I no longer have the recovery disc, so I had to download the .ios file onto a USB (I didn't have a blank disc) using Bootcamp Assistant on my Mac. I plugged in the drive onto my PC and had it boot from there. The start up repair selection wasn't fixing my problem, so I had to type in these commands on the cmd prompt:
bootrec.exe /fixmbr
bootrec.exe /fixboot (may return an 'Eliment not found' message)
bootrec.exe /RebuildBcd
I restarted my computer, and TADA! It started up just fine! If anyone was interested, here's the link I used to download the .ios recovery file: Windows 7 Recovery Environment ISO - Fix Your Problems
I hope this is able to help anyone else having this issue! Thanks to all for your patience and guidance! :]

The worry is that naive teens will post content which will come back to affect them at a later stage, be it from a bullying perspective or their content will get into the wrong hands online leading to higher risks of paedophiles/stalker behaviours.
As most of us are are aware, when younger, we weren't as aware of the consequences that could happen from our actions. This is the new worry with Facebook. These young children are now more vulnerable to the negative effects of social media.
With Facebook facing stiffer competition from the likes of new social media competitors such as Snapchat and WhatsApp, they're having to up their game but at whose expense?
As we all know, Facebook make a huge amount of money from the likes of incoming advertising revenue and giving teens extra reasons to stay online on their products means lots more potential for revenue. Their argument for this new update comes with 3 main points:
They are saying that teens will get warning messages before posting to remind them of who will see their messages.
They're advising that these settings can be reversed if required – the problem with this being that most teens want to be heard and so, will not do this.
Facebook are also trying to get around the agro by arguing that courageous teen activists such as Malala Yousafzai (the young teenager from Pakistan shot by the Taliban in October 2012) will now have a stronger voice online and can get their message further through the Facebook medium. One could question if this is a good thing after the Taliban have only very recently threatened this girl's life once again with security control measures now being increased further around the teen.
With parents already worried over what world their children are entering when online especially with the unfortunate increase of teenage suicides online due to online bullying (most recently with the website Ask.fm) the question is will these recent privacy changes now force worried parents to insist on downloading extra parental control software to their home machines to enforce stricter management of teenage behaviour online? How will teens take this? Already, it is a well-known truth that households containing teens can at times have fraught atmospheres. With this extra battle for parents trying to keep their kids safe whilst letting them become an adult, there is high potential for even more arguments in the household over this. Let the battle commence!

"David Sedaris's ability to transform the mortification of everyday life into wildly entertaining art," (The Christian Science Monitor) is elevated to wilder and more entertaining heights than ever in this remarkable new book.
Trying to make coffee when the water is shut off, David considers using the water in a vase of flowers and his chain of associations takes him from the French countryside to a hilariously uncomfortable memory of buying drugs in a mobile home in rural North Carolina. In essay after essay, Sedaris proceeds from bizarre conundrums of daily life-having a lozenge fall from your mouth into the lap of a fellow passenger on a plane or armoring the windows with LP covers to protect the house from neurotic songbirds-to the most deeply resonant human truths. Culminating in a brilliant account of his venture to Tokyo in order to quit smoking, David Sedaris's sixth essay collection is a new masterpiece of comic writing from "a writer worth treasuring" (Seattle Times).
Praise for When You Are Engulfed in Flames:
"Older, wiser, smarter and meaner, Sedaris...defies the odds once again by delivering an intelligent take on the banalities of an absurd life." Kirkus Reviews
This latest collection proves that not only does Sedaris still have it, but he's also getting better....Sedaris's best stuff will stillafter all this timemove, surprise, and entertain." Booklist

[Sedaris] tallies up the last 25 years, the prime of his life, and isn't impressed by the sum: "How had 9,125 relatively uneventful days passed so quickly," he writes, "and how can I keep it from happening again?" As usual, Sedaris has lots of answers to the first question but not many to the second in this delightful compilation of essays circling the theme of death and dying, with nods to the French countryside, art collecting and feces.

As a "kinda" cosplayer myself I can say its just an awesome feeling being someone from an anime or show. These people can't possibly be conceived as being real and there they are! Right in front of you. Its a thrill and the closer you look to who your cosplaying the better off you are. Also, if you never been to an Anime Convention cosplaying its a whole different world then the one we live in. Everyone has a common interest, you get to go around taking pictures with/hugging your favorite characters and everyone is willing to do things you don't ask people on the streets to do. Like doing the Caramelldansen dance or the Haruhi dance. People also like acting out the battle scenes and other parts of the show. Its basically the same in real life as people taking the name of a character and talking to each other on twitter. Its just a lot of fun, with a mixture of acting, roleplaying, awesomeness, and adventure.
I think it just helps sustain itself. I know that when I've been to conventions and I've seen other people dressed up as their favorite characters, I want to do the same thing. You look at how cool and detailed someone's outfit is and you want to do the same thing, only with your favorite. I think I could pull of a good Spike look from Cowboy Bebop and a convention and cosplay would let me do that! And no one would judge me for it!
Imagination is the fabric of life said the Last Emperor, people cosplay cause it puts them nearer to their favorite characters it really is something sort of like loving a fave basketball player ..but in turn they love these characters so much they emulate them

They say you can make up to 5 withdraws in a week, well I made two of $500 ea. They won't let you withdraw more than that at one time. So They approved my withdraw 1 of them however I made two on the same day for $500 but they put the other withdraw i made back into my player account and told me I have to wait another full two weeks to get this one now.
What kind of management is that? So I guess if you won $2500 in there and made 5 withdraws it would take up to 4 or 5 months to recieve it all because they only approve one and put all the rest of the money back into your player account and make you go through the whole process again when you already made the withdraws weeks ago.
I guess they do it to stall on paying or they just want you to get mad and spend all the money they put back into your account.
In the live chat they tell you that they usually make payments in the amount of $2500 installments but i can't even get $1000 at a time.
No one has the answer to why they did this to me they say it's in another department. So I sent a reply to the email they sent me about my first withdraw asking them to put the money back into my withdraw account as of the date I originally withdrew the money and am waiting a reply!


text: 07 Oct The Girl on the Train: Film Review "The Girl on the Train will have you questioning all." If you haven't yet read Paula Hawkins' dark bestselling novel (you totally should by the way – it's amazing), then this film follows the life of a troubled woman, burdened by alcoholism, infidelity and the breakdown of all normality in her life. Catching the train every day past her old home, clinging onto the girl she used to be, she watches her ex husband, Tom, and his new wife, Anna, from the window, constructing stories in her inebriated mind about the lives of his neighbours as she passes. Emily Blunt powerfully plays the role of Rachel, digging deep to portray such an unsettled and broken woman. The heavy cinematography and atmosphere created by director Tate Taylor mirrors the sombre themes set out in Hawkins book to an extent that avid fans should be proud of. As the film seamlessly rolls on, and the audience discovers the interwoven stories surrounding the death of Toms neighbour and Nanny Megan, we get a sense of discomfort that only great acting can bring. Justin Theroux, on the other hand, doesn't quite do Tom's character justice, making it hard to believe this character that, in the book, is put on such a high pedestal. This is made up for however, by Hayley Bennet, who does a fantastic job of bringing Megan's character to life, and then death. What perhaps made this book and subsequent film so powerful and appealing, is the way it follows troubled and arguably weak women to delve into society's narrow understandings of strength. It compares the strength of pain tolerance and endurance that the women in this story show, to the stereotypical masculine strengths. It portrays stark contrasts throughout, between the light and dark, the varying degrees of blurred reality, and the juxtaposition between suburban "perfection" and the secret lives they contain. Taylor took an incredible story that keeps you guessing and second-guessing, added strong cinematography and created an unforgettable watch. Not for the faint hearted, The Girl on the Train will have you questioning all, including the simple lives of those around you, when you next step on a train. - By Sam Urban Watch the film trailer below!

Seize the chance to be extraordinary.
Who has made the biggest difference in your life? Whose words and actions have uplifted and motivated you to excel? Chances are it was someone like Fred the postman--so outstanding in his service that Mark Sanborn realized this mail carrier could be an example for any person wanting to be extraordinary.
The "Fred factor" is summarized by four principles that will release fresh energy, enthusiasm, and creativity in your career and life:
* Make a Difference
* Build Relationships
* Create Value
* Reinvent Yourself
You, too, can apply The Fred Factor to enrich the lives of customers, co-workers, friends, and family members, as well as reach new levels of personal success yourself. Sanborn also shows how to discover and develop other "Freds.
Why not become a "Fred" yourself? You will turn the ordinary moments of life into extraordinary opportunities to make a difference in the world.
How to Turn the Ordinary Into the Extraordinary
Fred is the ordinary-looking postal carrier with a small moustache who delivers mail to motivational speaker Mark Sanborn's house in the Washington Park area of Denver. But he is no ordinary U.S. Postal Service worker. According to Sanborn, he is the kind of worker who exemplifies everything that is "right" with customer service and business in general, and is "a gold-plated example of what personalized service looks like and a role model for anyone who wants to make a difference in his or her work."
Not only did Sanborn get the best postal service he had ever experienced when he moved to Fred's route, but he also got a perfect example of superior service to illustrate his presentations to business leaders throughout the United States. According to Sanborn, anyone can be a Fred and live an extraordinary life as well.
Four Fred Principles
After examining the factors that make Fred the Postman such an extraordinarily committed service person, Sanborn honed them down to four principles that can be applied to improve anyone's life and work. These principles are:
Fred Sightings
Sanborn points out that Freds can be found everywhere, and there are more Freds out there than he once thought. One Fred is a woman at a hotel who helped Sanborn out in a pinch by taking his coffee-stained pants home with her overnight to personally wash and press for his departure the next day.
Another Fred he describes is a flight attendant who made a 6:15 a.m. flight from Denver to San Francisco more enjoyable for passengers by lightening the usual announcements with her unique sense of humor: "If you are having a hard time getting your ears to pop, I suggest you yawn widely. And if you are having a hard time yawning, ask me to tell you about my love life." Sanborn explains that she took some risks and had some fun, and as a result, her "customers" the passengers had fun, too.
Another Fred who Sanborn describes is a hotel worker who lent him $30 when he had no cab fare for his ride home. Sanborn explains that this Fred knows that the way to move through life joyfully and successfully is by focusing on what you give rather than what you get. Freds do the right thing because it is the right thing to do.
Sanborn explains that if you want more Freds in the world, be a Fred. Throughout the rest of The Fred Factor, he describes how every individual can make a difference, and offers numerous difference-making strategies to help readers influence the world in a positive way.
Why We Like This Book
The Fred Factor presents a compassionate look at how every action we take can be made more significant if we take the time to reinvent our work and rejuvenate our efforts. By providing a look at the normal people who do extraordinary things in their daily activities, Sanborn presents heart-warming business lessons that expose the value and endless possibilities for improving life and work that come from loving others.

Hey everybody! We have some exciting news to present to you! After hours of hard work and pestering people who actually know what they are doing, we are proud to present http://www.eggyemporium.com/! Its still a work in progress of course, but we found that the features of a website were better for what we wanted to accomplish than a blog.
Now, you may be wondering, what features could he possibly be talking about? The first is rather straightforward, yet still very useful. The idea was given to me by Kamaal Harris. We have compiled what is known as an eBST list, or effective Base Stat Total. The way it works is that, when looking at a regular base stat total of a Pokemon, the results may be skewed owing to the fact that one of the Pokemons attacking stats is, more often than not, unused. This makes a Pokemon like Salamence who in VGC often does not use its attacking stat, has a much higher BST than is accurate. In our eBST list, you can view both the Physical and the Special eBST's of Salamence and get a more realistic picture of what Pokemon have similar stats. The eBST list can be found here.
We also have the usage stats from the Shade Off analyzed by yours truly, feel free to give the article a look here.
Another unique feature to our website is a project we have undergone that is remarkably difficult, yet we still hope to accomplish. The idea is to create a resource of individual Pokemon analysis', sets, EV's, items, etc, similar to what Smogon does for single battling, compiling a database of Pokemon analysis. We have begun the analysis' with the 84 Pokemon we thought most prominent, yet the going is slow. We aim to include a new Pokemon every few days however, and the featured analysis block on the website will tell you when it is updated! Additionally, if you want to contribute a set or spread to the database, or write an introduction, if the quality is good enough we would be happy to include it on the site. All the links to the individual analysis' can be found in the table shown here
And, unless I am forgetting something, lastly we have probably what I am the most proud of and the most wide reaching of everything we have put together, a working 6th generation teambuilder. JTK has been slaving away at it for weeks now, enduring constant harassment from your truly, and she finally walked 15 miles in the desert to deliver it to us. There are still a few bugs that we are working out (Charizard Mega Forms dont work yet, we'll fix it, sorry!) and it is only the first version, but we hope it will be an extremely valuable tool during the teambuilding process. And we even have abilities! The Teambuilder can be found, guess where? Here!
Its been a lot of fun working on this blog so far, and I've really enjoyed putting the time and effort into it and seeing it pay off. I want to thank everyone who has been keeping up with us, and for all the positive feedback (and feedback in general!) we have received. It is my goal to be responsive to the community, so if you have an idea, please don't hesitate to share it! And from all of us at Eggy Emporium, thank you for reading.
